Hello and welcome to
3ABN Fall Camp Meeting.
00:00:49.51\00:00:52.81
We're so glad that
that you're all here.
00:00:53.01\00:00:54.75
And those of you
watching from around the world:
00:00:54.95\00:00:56.85
thank you for your love and your
prayers and financial support
00:00:57.05\00:01:00.46
of 3ABN as we endeavor
to take this great gospel
00:01:00.76\00:01:03.79
of the kingdom
into all the world.
00:01:03.99\00:01:06.39
C.A. and Mollie:
you all happy tonight?
00:01:06.59\00:01:08.50
I am elated... I
love Camp Meeting!
00:01:08.70\00:01:11.10
How many of you enjoy
coming to Camp Meeting?
00:01:11.30\00:01:13.13
We always have so
much fun around here.
00:01:13.44\00:01:16.00
And you know we
have already been praying
00:01:16.20\00:01:18.57
that the Father by the
power of His Holy Spirit
00:01:18.97\00:01:21.74
will change every one of us.
00:01:21.84\00:01:23.18
How many of you came wanting
to have your heart changed?
00:01:23.21\00:01:26.45
The scripture tells us:
"Be not conformed to this world
00:01:26.65\00:01:29.08
but be transformed. " I'm
praying for transformation.
00:01:29.28\00:01:31.95
How about you, C.A.? Amen!
I think we ought to take up
00:01:32.15\00:01:34.29
an offering. I think
we just heard a sermon.
00:01:34.39\00:01:36.52
OK. Amen... all right.
00:01:36.73\00:01:38.69
We are beyond excited.
00:01:39.09\00:01:42.03
Excited doesn't begin to
tap into what God has infused
00:01:42.23\00:01:45.60
with this ministry
over the last several weeks.
00:01:45.80\00:01:48.40
And our prayer is... our
aim is during the next few days
00:01:48.60\00:01:52.21
is to infect you - yes! - with
the virus that has infected us.
00:01:52.41\00:01:56.91
We want you to go
home sick and infected
00:01:57.21\00:01:59.71
and then we want
you to infect others
00:01:59.91\00:02:01.58
because God has
given us something.
00:02:01.78\00:02:03.12
We're going to talk about it
tonight. We're going to share it
00:02:03.18\00:02:04.89
with you. Christ is coming
soon, and we have been possessed
00:02:04.99\00:02:08.72
dare we say - all right -
of the spirit and understanding
00:02:08.92\00:02:11.36
and before this weekend is out
we want to know precisely where
00:02:11.66\00:02:14.00
God is taking us
because He's coming soon
00:02:14.10\00:02:16.13
and we want you all to
join us as we go home together.
00:02:16.33\00:02:18.73
Amen! Mollie Sue,
step up here a little...
00:02:19.23\00:02:21.67
I like you to be right up front.
Now you're on television some,
00:02:21.97\00:02:25.91
but rarely do you
speak here at Camp Meeting.
00:02:26.11\00:02:28.21
Are you? I'm not
sure... I got in a little late.
00:02:28.41\00:02:30.45
Are you
preaching tonight? I might!
00:02:30.65\00:02:33.31
I love... See why
you love Mollie Sue?
00:02:34.98\00:02:36.82
'Cause she's
ready in a minute here.
00:02:36.92\00:02:38.25
If we sat down,
she would preach.
00:02:38.49\00:02:40.52
Absolutely. Tell us
what you're thinking today.
00:02:40.82\00:02:43.22
You know, we had a
board meeting this morning...
00:02:43.43\00:02:46.39
3ABN's Fall board meeting.
00:02:46.59\00:02:50.10
And I just want you all to
know there is a word that keeps
00:02:50.50\00:02:54.87
coming to me, and
it's just expectant.
00:02:55.10\00:02:57.51
There is just expectation -
all right - and it's just been
00:02:57.71\00:03:00.81
infused in every one of us.
00:03:00.91\00:03:02.44
I've been here
now over 20 years.
00:03:02.68\00:03:05.15
I was just a baby when I came.
00:03:05.35\00:03:07.52
And... You have to
tell the truth now, OK?
00:03:08.32\00:03:10.89
No matter how old he
gets I'm always older,
00:03:11.99\00:03:14.92
and I just think
that's a shame and a disgrace.
00:03:15.12\00:03:17.66
There is so much...
She looks younger, though.
00:03:17.86\00:03:20.86
I acknowledge that.
OK... I'll settle for that.
00:03:21.06\00:03:24.00
But there is just an
expectancy around here.
00:03:24.30\00:03:26.74
We know that God is
moving in these end times.
00:03:26.94\00:03:29.70
And the exiting part
is we're a part of it.
00:03:30.01\00:03:33.01
You know, I don't want to
be back here on the back row,
00:03:33.41\00:03:36.11
and I have never been one
in church to want to sit on the
00:03:36.41\00:03:39.01
front row, but in the end-time
move of God I want to be
00:03:39.11\00:03:42.22
right up front.
How 'bout you all?
00:03:42.32\00:03:43.85
Don't want to be back there
somewhere. I want to be on the
00:03:44.15\00:03:46.42
tip of the arrow that's
piercing the forces of darkness
00:03:46.55\00:03:50.46
and the power of the enemy and
bringing the gospel of the Lord
00:03:50.66\00:03:53.56
Jesus Christ into this earth.
That's what we want to do.
00:03:53.60\00:03:57.27
Preach it; preach it. You know
what we're all excited about:
00:03:57.47\00:03:59.90
Jesus is coming
soon. That's true. Amen!
00:04:00.10\00:04:02.10
Now we've heard
that for a lot of years.
00:04:02.30\00:04:03.71
People say: "Well how do
you know it's not going to be
00:04:03.91\00:04:05.67
another hundred years? "
As an evangelist once said:
00:04:05.87\00:04:08.64
"If it is, God will have
to apologize to Sodom and
00:04:08.84\00:04:12.11
Gomorrah. " That's right.
I mean, think about living...
00:04:12.21\00:04:14.78
We've heard about
prophecies all of our life.
00:04:14.98\00:04:17.19
We're living in them.
I mean, can you imagine
00:04:17.39\00:04:19.49
the Supreme Court
decision to re-define?
00:04:19.69\00:04:22.72
Who is man? The Lord is
saying: "Where were you when
00:04:22.92\00:04:26.59
I formed the worlds? "
00:04:26.80\00:04:28.66
Who are we to change and
try to re-define marriage?
00:04:28.86\00:04:32.03
Of course we can't do it.
00:04:32.23\00:04:33.57
But in the "humanness" we
do. Then on the White House
00:04:33.60\00:04:36.24
showing all the
homosexual colors.
00:04:36.44\00:04:38.64
I mean, that is something.
Now we're not saying we're down
00:04:38.84\00:04:42.21
on gay and lesbian people.
00:04:42.44\00:04:44.31
But we don't believe it's
Biblical so we also should have
00:04:44.61\00:04:47.18
a right. They have a right
to say what they want to say,
00:04:47.38\00:04:49.45
right? They're out.
And so we should have a...
00:04:49.65\00:04:51.55
we should have the opportunity
to say: "You know what?
00:04:51.85\00:04:55.52
We believe the Bible
and the Bible only. " Amen!
00:04:55.82\00:04:59.06
Now God's your...
anybody that's in that movement
00:04:59.09\00:05:01.63
God's their judge.
We're not judging people.
00:05:01.83\00:05:03.53
God does that. But
it's our responsibility
00:05:03.83\00:05:06.84
to tell people the truth.
00:05:07.04\00:05:08.37
So we can't be quiet when
these things are happening.
00:05:08.44\00:05:11.17
What this is is a
wake-up call to all of us.
00:05:11.47\00:05:15.98
And I've said this before,
Mollie, but I see no difference.
00:05:16.21\00:05:18.98
Some theologian can
maybe give it to me...
00:05:19.28\00:05:21.82
I see no difference
between what's happening
00:05:22.02\00:05:25.25
with the Supreme Court decision
here in the United States of
00:05:25.45\00:05:27.92
America than I see with
the national Sunday law.
00:05:27.96\00:05:30.59
And we've heard
about that all of our life.
00:05:30.99\00:05:32.69
But God sanctified
two things at creation,
00:05:32.89\00:05:35.70
didn't He? What'd He sanctify?
00:05:35.80\00:05:38.00
The Sabbath and
marriage. Sabbath and marriage.
00:05:38.20\00:05:39.77
And any time you
trample any of God's laws
00:05:40.07\00:05:43.00
judgments gonna fall
- that's true - because
00:05:43.20\00:05:45.17
what you've said is: "God,
we don't need You any more.
00:05:45.37\00:05:47.48
We're going to
just rule ourselves. "
00:05:47.68\00:05:49.01
Now all we've got to do
is look at the Bible and see
00:05:49.24\00:05:50.81
that doesn't happen. We've
got a long, several thousand
00:05:50.91\00:05:53.05
years of history.
When you push God out
00:05:53.15\00:05:55.75
what happens?
Without God there is no life.
00:05:56.05\00:05:58.65
So what an opportunity that
we don't have to talk about it
00:05:58.95\00:06:02.09
any more "Well some
years down the road eventually
00:06:02.19\00:06:04.39
this is going to happen
and that's going to happen. "
00:06:04.49\00:06:06.36
It's happening right now.
00:06:06.66\00:06:08.00
I mean, who would have ever
thought we would live in a time?
00:06:08.13\00:06:11.37
The Pope's here
right now, right?
00:06:11.57\00:06:13.00
Thank you for coming here in-
stead of going to see the Pope.
00:06:13.30\00:06:16.20
We're glad that you came here.
00:06:16.50\00:06:18.71
He's got enough
people following him!
00:06:18.91\00:06:20.61
I think the Bible says: "All
the world wondered after... "
00:06:20.94\00:06:23.95
But Pastor John Lomacang
is there. I think he's maybe
00:06:24.05\00:06:26.58
on his way back.
He's getting some video
00:06:26.68\00:06:28.55
and some footage
to keep us updated
00:06:28.75\00:06:31.25
on what's
happening around the world.
00:06:31.45\00:06:33.02
And one of the new energies
we're putting into 3ABN...
00:06:33.22\00:06:36.62
We want to do some
town-hall-type meetings
00:06:36.83\00:06:38.86
so that every week or so
we give updates on what's
00:06:39.06\00:06:42.00
happening. Things are
happening so fast we have to
00:06:42.20\00:06:44.33
do it every week! So we're
going to have these meetings
00:06:44.43\00:06:47.04
where we literally can talk
and discuss about present truth
00:06:47.24\00:06:50.74
and events that are happening
around the world that affect
00:06:50.94\00:06:54.21
you and me. That's right.
Satan is out to steal, kill,
00:06:54.31\00:06:56.91
and to destroy.
Jesus said: "I am come to
00:06:57.11\00:06:59.21
give you life and
give it more abundantly. "
00:06:59.31\00:07:01.75
And right now the devil
is out doing all he can do
00:07:02.05\00:07:05.02
so it's time...
There's a war raging!
00:07:05.22\00:07:07.49
There's a... Somebody
say amen? I heard somebody.
00:07:07.79\00:07:10.06
There's a war raging right now.
00:07:10.26\00:07:11.89
There's a great controversy
between good and evil.
00:07:12.09\00:07:14.36
Am I telling the truth?
Yes! And we're on one side or
00:07:14.56\00:07:16.93
the other whether
we like it or not.
00:07:17.03\00:07:18.77
You don't have a choice.
00:07:19.07\00:07:20.40
Somebody said:
"Nobody tells me what to do. "
00:07:20.44\00:07:22.50
Well no, but
whatever... You are already...
00:07:22.70\00:07:25.27
Your decisions; we're either
on God's side or we're on the
00:07:25.47\00:07:28.21
side of the devil.
There isn't a purgatory
00:07:28.31\00:07:30.75
if anybody's thinkin' there is.
I don't think that's Biblical,
00:07:30.95\00:07:33.01
is it C.A.?
You're the theologian.
00:07:33.11\00:07:35.28
So we are excited to be
alive in the closing moments
00:07:35.58\00:07:38.85
of earth's history and
have a tool that literally
00:07:38.89\00:07:41.66
is reaching around the world.
00:07:41.76\00:07:43.16
And we're excited that
these events are happening
00:07:43.36\00:07:46.36
and it gives us hope
that Jesus could even come...
00:07:46.76\00:07:49.46
As old as M... I mean
as old as I am, Jesus could
00:07:49.66\00:07:52.37
come in... What?
00:07:52.57\00:07:57.14
I'm sorry. Anyway, you
get the point. I wasn't
00:07:57.34\00:08:00.51
sure if I said
something bad about her or not.
00:08:00.71\00:08:02.94
But anyway, you get the point.
00:08:03.04\00:08:04.38
As old as we are, we might
get to live to see Jesus come.
00:08:04.41\00:08:07.35
Isn't that
exciting? That is exciting.
00:08:07.55\00:08:09.22
You know, in thinking about
this, we've read the end of the
00:08:09.62\00:08:13.39
book. Do we know how
this is going to end?
00:08:13.49\00:08:16.29
We've read the end of the book.
00:08:16.49\00:08:17.83
However... how many of
you want the Lord to return?
00:08:18.09\00:08:21.06
We say this so often and we
do. We want the Lord to return.
00:08:21.36\00:08:25.63
But you know, there's a whole
lot gonna happen between now
00:08:25.83\00:08:28.34
and then, and it's
not going to be pleasant.
00:08:28.44\00:08:30.97
BUT God has
called an end-time people
00:08:31.27\00:08:34.11
and we are that
end-time people. Amen!
00:08:34.31\00:08:36.04
You know, those that will
give their life and their hearts
00:08:36.24\00:08:39.11
to this end-time
move of God because it's
00:08:39.31\00:08:42.25
an end-time move of God, Danny.
00:08:42.35\00:08:44.05
It's not just an
end-time move of the enemy.
00:08:44.25\00:08:46.39
Yeah, he's raring his ugly
head, but the kingdom of God
00:08:46.59\00:08:50.73
suffereth violence but what?
The violent take it by force.
00:08:50.93\00:08:54.73
How do we take it? By
prayer and intercession
00:08:54.93\00:08:57.50
on our knees.
Every battle that's won
00:08:57.70\00:08:59.83
you know where it's won first?
00:08:59.93\00:09:01.40
It's won on your
knees in your prayer closet.
00:09:01.60\00:09:04.41
So we've read the end of
the book; we know how it's
00:09:04.71\00:09:07.54
gonna end BUT it's up to us
00:09:07.64\00:09:10.18
to be obedient to what God tells
us to do. I think it's time to
00:09:10.38\00:09:12.45
lift another offering; I
think she's done it again!
00:09:12.55\00:09:14.58
You notice the difference in the
black and the white churches?
00:09:14.98\00:09:17.95
We take up offerings...
they LIFT offerings.
00:09:18.25\00:09:20.49
You hear that? They all
say "We lift offerings. "
00:09:20.89\00:09:22.96
Now I'm not going to
say any more to that.
00:09:23.06\00:09:24.39
You think about it. "We
lift an offering. " We just say
00:09:24.46\00:09:26.80
"It's time to
take up an offering. "
00:09:27.00\00:09:28.96
They're like: "Let's lift our
offering right now. " Indeed!
00:09:29.16\00:09:31.57
I don't know what all that means
but I notice that difference,
00:09:31.67\00:09:33.57
C.A. Praise the Lord!
00:09:33.67\00:09:35.00
And I like the
way you do it better.
00:09:35.04\00:09:37.81
The greatest thing in the world
is being where God wants you
00:09:39.51\00:09:43.55
to be doing what
God wants you to do.
00:09:43.65\00:09:46.95
And that's why you see
this "quiescent giddiness"
00:09:47.45\00:09:51.72
around 3ABN. It
starts with Shelley Quinn
00:09:51.75\00:09:54.16
and goes right down. Even Brian.
And treasurers are notably
00:09:54.26\00:09:58.09
dour, sour, sober individuals.
00:09:58.29\00:10:01.03
More like
undertakers. Yeah, yeah.
00:10:01.23\00:10:02.86
Sometimes they're
more like undertakers.
00:10:02.96\00:10:04.30
But even Brian giggled
his way through board meeting
00:10:04.33\00:10:08.50
this morning. It
was a pleasure to see
00:10:08.70\00:10:11.71
that face doing what
he's doing right now.
00:10:11.91\00:10:14.11
Because God has
litten? lighted? That's right.
00:10:14.51\00:10:19.85
Yeah... struck a
match and we are all on fire
00:10:19.98\00:10:23.82
for the Lord. Yes! And
like I said, we want to...
00:10:24.02\00:10:26.32
we want that fire to hit
critical mass and just go and go
00:10:26.52\00:10:29.46
and go because God has given
us something that we believe -
00:10:29.66\00:10:32.56
and I think Shelley was
the first person to say it -
00:10:32.76\00:10:34.70
that it's going to usher
in the Latter Rain of God.
00:10:34.90\00:10:38.00
And when God does this He
does it in different areas.
00:10:38.20\00:10:40.64
And so we want you to keep
your eyes open because God is
00:10:40.74\00:10:42.87
starting something here
that's going to crescendo.
00:10:42.97\00:10:45.31
This is not the latest plan;
this is not the latest scheme.
00:10:45.51\00:10:48.54
This is not the
latest mechanism of 3ABN.
00:10:48.94\00:10:51.25
This is a move of God in
the body of Christ - all right -
00:10:51.45\00:10:54.38
which is going to
help finish the work.
00:10:54.58\00:10:56.08
And Danny said this morning:
"When you're broke and you
00:10:56.38\00:10:58.45
don't have any money
and everything is going bad
00:10:58.55\00:11:00.99
that's the time
to go evangelize. "
00:11:01.09\00:11:03.22
And that's why Brian
was smiling this morning
00:11:03.32\00:11:05.39
'cause the coffers
didn't look too good.
00:11:05.59\00:11:07.46
And I said: "He's got the
vision because a treasurer
00:11:07.66\00:11:10.13
doesn't smile when there's
not any money in the bank. "
00:11:10.33\00:11:12.53
But he's smiling because
he's read the back of the book.
00:11:12.73\00:11:15.20
Right? Yeah. We
say this so many times:
00:11:15.40\00:11:19.41
it looks like
we like each other.
00:11:19.71\00:11:22.91
And we do! OK.
The rumors are true.
00:11:27.05\00:11:30.69
We love each
other and we love God.
00:11:31.55\00:11:34.99
All right. Amen? Amen. And
when you've got a love for Jesus
00:11:35.29\00:11:38.36
and a love for your fellows
you cannot help but shine
00:11:38.76\00:11:42.13
for Christ. All right.
You cannot help but shine
00:11:42.33\00:11:44.43
and you cannot help but
share what God has given you.
00:11:44.63\00:11:47.44
We're a little
selfish because in Ezekiel...
00:11:47.74\00:11:50.21
Cancel. In Ecclesiastes
it says it twice - OK -
00:11:50.71\00:11:55.04
that if you see
your brother going down
00:11:55.28\00:11:57.61
and you see
your brother in error
00:11:58.01\00:12:00.15
and you say nothing God says
"I'm holding you accountable
00:12:00.35\00:12:04.95
for them. " So our enthusiasm
is just a little bit selfish.
00:12:05.15\00:12:08.62
We've got enough sin in
our own lives as it was.
00:12:08.82\00:12:11.13
We don't want to
be guilty of yours.
00:12:11.23\00:12:12.89
So we're telling you
like God said tell you
00:12:13.09\00:12:15.06
so that we can free
ourselves of that little burden
00:12:15.26\00:12:17.60
and we can help you on
the way to the kingdom too.
00:12:17.80\00:12:19.70
It's a good thing
to share Jesus Christ.
00:12:19.90\00:12:21.70
And when you help
others, guess what?
00:12:22.00\00:12:23.94
You help yourself.
00:12:24.04\00:12:25.47
You know, C.A. said we
were infected? We're contagious!
00:12:25.57\00:12:29.04
Oh! All right. You
hang out with us long enough
00:12:29.24\00:12:31.05
you're gonna get what we've got.
00:12:31.25\00:12:32.95
All right; I love it.
00:12:34.38\00:12:35.72
One other thing
that just occurred to me:
00:12:35.92\00:12:37.82
here we are, living in
the closing moments of earth's
00:12:38.02\00:12:40.69
history. So many things
happened around our capital.
00:12:40.89\00:12:43.22
I already told you
about the colors over it.
00:12:43.43\00:12:45.56
This week the Pope is there.
00:12:45.76\00:12:47.63
I was there
Monday and C.A. and Greg.
00:12:47.83\00:12:49.90
And when would you think
while the Pope is visiting
00:12:50.10\00:12:54.14
all of these things,
redefinition of marriage
00:12:54.17\00:12:56.94
and a SDA running for
president of the United States.
00:12:57.14\00:13:00.58
Now that's something we
wouldn't have thought about
00:13:01.08\00:13:03.65
in our wildest dreams, right?
00:13:03.85\00:13:05.41
And so we are on
the brink of eternity.
00:13:05.61\00:13:07.92
But you know what?
It's a beautiful world.
00:13:08.12\00:13:09.72
Amen! It's a
beautiful world. Yes it is!
00:13:10.02\00:13:12.39
And I'm telling everybody
we ought to be able to say
00:13:12.52\00:13:14.79
as Christians: "It
is a beautiful world. "
00:13:14.89\00:13:16.83
Right here in Benton, IL,
just 8 miles down the road,
00:13:17.13\00:13:19.73
if you go around
the little town square
00:13:19.93\00:13:22.03
some of you goin' out to
Wal-Mart look to your right
00:13:22.23\00:13:24.67
you see the old courthouse
and you see a hangman's platform
00:13:24.87\00:13:28.47
and a hangman's
noose coming down
00:13:28.67\00:13:30.91
where I think - I'm
not sure when it was -
00:13:31.17\00:13:33.07
1929 or whenever the
last person that was hung
00:13:33.27\00:13:36.95
around here
that I know of anyway
00:13:37.05\00:13:38.61
was a guy named Charlie Burger.
00:13:38.81\00:13:40.62
And he was a gangster.
He and the Shelton gang...
00:13:40.92\00:13:43.28
Sorry but he and the Shelton...
Sorry to inform some of you
00:13:43.49\00:13:45.82
of that now, but the
Shelton gang. There's numbers
00:13:46.02\00:13:48.22
of books written about the
southern Illinois Shelton gang.
00:13:48.42\00:13:50.69
Brothers that did a lot
of armed. They fought against
00:13:50.99\00:13:53.19
each other, and it was all
over... during prohibition days.
00:13:53.40\00:13:56.73
And so all this fighting.
But Charlie Burger got hung
00:13:57.03\00:13:59.63
on the Benton square.
As he went up, and this is
00:13:59.73\00:14:02.64
what the people and
all the accounts say:
00:14:02.74\00:14:04.67
a guy's going to his
death. He's a young man...
00:14:04.97\00:14:07.18
I don't know, 30 or whatever...
00:14:07.38\00:14:08.78
he climbs up the stairs.
They're putting the noose
00:14:08.98\00:14:11.65
around his neck. They say a
lot of tough guys go to pieces
00:14:11.75\00:14:16.42
then, right? Tough
guys go to pieces...
00:14:16.52\00:14:19.05
especially if you've not
given your life to Jesus.
00:14:19.35\00:14:21.92
But they say to him: "Do
you have any last words? "
00:14:22.12\00:14:25.46
You know what he said?
"It's a beautiful world. "
00:14:25.76\00:14:28.90
And I said: "Now if a guy
that's gettin' ready to be hung
00:14:29.20\00:14:32.00
and in 5 seconds or
10 is going to be dead
00:14:32.20\00:14:34.50
can say "It's a
beautiful world, "
00:14:34.70\00:14:36.04
shame on us if we
can't say that, right?
00:14:36.07\00:14:38.14
Amen! Why is it beautiful?
Because God created it.
00:14:38.44\00:14:40.48
That's right. It's not every-
thing that's in it goin' on.
00:14:40.58\00:14:42.91
It's ugly...
there's sin goin' on.
00:14:43.11\00:14:44.98
But it's a beautiful world
because we're only here for
00:14:45.18\00:14:47.25
a fleeting moment
and then it's eternity.
00:14:47.35\00:14:49.42
Well I had some kids join
me... This past year or so
00:14:49.62\00:14:53.19
I wrote a number of songs
and we did a brand-new project.
00:14:53.39\00:14:56.76
We had the CD out a
few months ago, but just
00:14:56.86\00:14:59.83
I think we just
finished it this last week.
00:15:00.03\00:15:02.03
I brought some of the young
folk here, and these songs -
00:15:02.23\00:15:05.53
there's a CD and DVD for kids -
00:15:05.73\00:15:07.54
all of them talk
about the cross of Calvary.
00:15:07.74\00:15:09.97
They give certain
Biblical beliefs that we embrace
00:15:10.27\00:15:13.21
as Christians and
Seventh-day Adventist
00:15:13.41\00:15:15.11
Christians. And so
we're actually going to show
00:15:15.31\00:15:17.65
one of the videos
that we have right now
00:15:17.81\00:15:19.61
that the kids did
just a few weeks ago here.
00:15:19.81\00:15:22.22
And the title song is
"It's a Beautiful World. "
00:15:22.42\00:15:24.95
It's a beautiful
world that God made
00:15:36.06\00:15:40.94
just for you and for me.
00:15:41.34\00:15:44.84
He created it all in six days
00:15:45.14\00:15:49.78
I have faith to believe.
00:15:50.18\00:15:53.62
The Bible tells the story
00:15:54.12\00:15:58.25
of God's great power and glory.
00:15:58.55\00:16:02.59
He made the
light, the earth and sea;
00:16:03.56\00:16:07.60
He made the flowers and
the buzzing bumble bees.
00:16:07.80\00:16:13.67
It's a beautiful
world that God made
00:16:13.97\00:16:18.67
just for you and for me.
00:16:18.97\00:16:22.68
God created
everything in just six days.
00:16:23.28\00:16:25.91
On the first day
God created light
00:16:26.31\00:16:28.65
and on the second day
He made the heavenly skies.
00:16:28.95\00:16:32.05
On the third day
He created the grass,
00:16:32.35\00:16:34.29
the trees, and the plants.
00:16:34.39\00:16:36.29
On the fourth day He created the
sun, the moon, and the stars.
00:16:36.49\00:16:40.20
And on the fifth
day God created the fish
00:16:41.13\00:16:43.40
and all the wonderful
sea creatures in the water
00:16:43.60\00:16:46.27
and He created all
the birds in the air.
00:16:46.57\00:16:49.30
It's a beautiful
world that God made
00:16:51.47\00:16:56.58
just for you and for me.
00:16:56.88\00:17:00.15
He created it all in six days
00:17:00.45\00:17:05.05
I have faith to believe.
00:17:05.45\00:17:08.52
The Bible tells
the story - story -
00:17:09.56\00:17:13.46
of God's great
power and glory - glory.
00:17:13.76\00:17:18.43
He made the
light, the earth and sea;
00:17:18.83\00:17:22.94
He made the flowers
and the buzzing bumble bee.
00:17:22.97\00:17:28.94
It's a beautiful
world that God made
00:17:29.04\00:17:34.18
just for you and for me.
00:17:34.48\00:17:37.95
And on the sixth day He
created all the beautiful
00:17:38.15\00:17:40.79
animal life on the
earth but He also created
00:17:40.99\00:17:44.03
something very
special that sixth day.
00:17:44.23\00:17:46.90
Yes, special and
dear to the heart of God.
00:17:47.10\00:17:50.10
You guessed it. He
created you and me.
00:17:50.30\00:17:53.87
The Bible tells
the story - story -
00:17:56.07\00:18:00.34
of God's great
power and glory - glory.
00:18:00.54\00:18:04.78
He made the
light, the earth and sea;
00:18:05.08\00:18:09.38
He made the flowers
and the buzzing bumble bee.
00:18:09.58\00:18:15.49
It's a beautiful
world that God made
00:18:15.79\00:18:20.56
just for you and for me.
00:18:20.86\00:18:24.37
After He created
everything in just six days
00:18:24.77\00:18:27.90
the Bible says that God rested.
00:18:28.20\00:18:30.44
Let's read about
it in Genesis 2:1-3.
00:18:30.64\00:18:33.84
It's a beautiful
world that God made
00:18:57.63\00:19:02.60
just for you and for me.
00:19:02.90\00:19:06.31
He created it all in six days
00:19:06.61\00:19:11.25
I have faith to believe.
00:19:11.65\00:19:15.18
It's a beautiful world
- it's a beautiful world.
00:19:15.48\00:19:19.85
It's a beautiful world
- it's a beautiful world.
00:19:20.06\00:19:24.23
It's a beautiful world
- it's a beautiful world.
00:19:24.53\00:19:28.90
It's a beautiful world
- it's a beautiful world.
00:19:29.13\00:19:33.44
It's a beautiful world
- it's a beautiful world.
00:19:33.64\00:19:37.61
Indeed it is a beautiful world!
00:19:37.71\00:19:39.57
And I'll tell you: this
is a wonderful music project.
00:19:39.77\00:19:43.08
It's available now
in both CD and DVD.
00:19:43.28\00:19:45.68
And it is not only for the
youth. We're finding that...
00:19:45.98\00:19:50.05
You know, there's only
one thing wrong with that song
00:19:50.25\00:19:52.62
and most of the
songs that are on this
00:19:52.82\00:19:54.66
is that once you hear them
you find yourself running around
00:19:54.76\00:19:57.23
the house... It
stays in your mind.
00:19:57.43\00:19:59.33
And I think that's how Danny
knew he had some great songs
00:19:59.63\00:20:02.30
that the Lord gave him is
because he'd play them for his
00:20:02.50\00:20:04.63
grandkids and he'd hear
them running around singing.
00:20:04.73\00:20:07.27
So it is a beautiful world.
00:20:07.47\00:20:09.20
And as C.A. said, we love
the Lord... we love each other.
00:20:09.40\00:20:12.27
But I want you to
know that we love you, too.
00:20:12.47\00:20:14.64
And we pray about
that. We ask God... You know,
00:20:14.94\00:20:17.51
Romans 5:5 says He will "pour
His love into our hearts. "
00:20:17.61\00:20:21.52
And that's how we are enabled
to love Him with all of our
00:20:21.72\00:20:24.35
heart, soul, mind, and strength
00:20:24.45\00:20:25.92
and love each other as ourself.
00:20:26.12\00:20:29.32
But I want you to
know that if you are not
00:20:29.62\00:20:33.19
concerned about
the salvation of others
00:20:33.43\00:20:36.67
you need to have a heart check.
00:20:36.97\00:20:40.00
Because if the
love of God is in you
00:20:40.50\00:20:44.37
you are going to be
concerned about others.
00:20:44.57\00:20:47.48
And when Danny came and
told me the very first time
00:20:47.71\00:20:50.48
he said - he's always saying
- "The blessing is on the GO. "
00:20:50.68\00:20:53.92
But he said: "We
are going to start
00:20:54.22\00:20:56.65
the Blessing Is on the
"GO!" evangelistic team. "
00:20:56.85\00:20:59.75
And he said: "This is
how we're going to do it. "
00:21:00.06\00:21:01.72
And he started talking.
I have not, and everybody
00:21:01.82\00:21:04.86
can testify to this, my
feet have not touched the ground
00:21:04.99\00:21:09.13
since. This is to me... I feel
like everything that God has
00:21:09.33\00:21:14.14
done in the past
31 years here at 3ABN
00:21:14.34\00:21:18.07
was just to get
the network in place
00:21:18.31\00:21:21.21
so that this
program could be launched.
00:21:21.41\00:21:24.98
And I don't want to call
it a program because it isn't
00:21:25.08\00:21:27.55
a program or a
project. This is a MOVEMENT.
00:21:27.75\00:21:31.09
And what we... the
way we look at it is
00:21:31.39\00:21:33.89
it's just like we've
got this fabric that's woven
00:21:34.09\00:21:37.49
and now God is going to come
along and He's weaving you in.
00:21:37.69\00:21:42.33
You can become part of
the "GO" evangelistic team.
00:21:42.53\00:21:46.60
The way in which it works
is that if you give a monthly
00:21:47.00\00:21:50.94
donation of any amount you can
become a "GO" evangelistic team
00:21:51.04\00:21:55.54
member and we will send
you a resource each month:
00:21:55.64\00:22:00.48
a book or a CD or a Bible study,
00:22:00.62\00:22:03.72
something that you can
go share with your family
00:22:03.92\00:22:06.92
and your friends
and your neighbors.
00:22:07.12\00:22:08.96
You will be supporting
not only your local evangelism
00:22:09.26\00:22:13.66
but evangelism around the world!
00:22:13.76\00:22:15.53
That's what 3ABN's all about.
00:22:15.63\00:22:17.37
Our mission is to
give present-truth messages
00:22:17.63\00:22:21.94
to proclaim the
three angels' messages.
00:22:22.14\00:22:25.67
And not only that, but
we need to be proclaiming
00:22:25.87\00:22:28.68
the message of Revelation 18:
00:22:28.88\00:22:31.38
"Come out of her
Babylon... Babylon is fallen. "
00:22:31.58\00:22:34.75
And Danny, when you
were talking about end times
00:22:34.95\00:22:38.29
there's no doubt in my mind
that Jesus is returning soon.
00:22:38.49\00:22:41.42
Did you know this
week they raised the flag
00:22:41.82\00:22:46.09
of the Holy See at
the United Nations?
00:22:46.29\00:22:49.56
First time ever.
00:22:50.83\00:22:53.34
What does that say?
00:22:53.84\00:22:55.24
The Holy See is
a political power.
00:22:55.64\00:22:59.21
Revelation talks
about this political power
00:22:59.51\00:23:04.78
that is also a religious power.
00:23:04.98\00:23:06.31
We're close... we're close.
00:23:06.51\00:23:09.12
So I don't know how many
of you are members of the
00:23:09.42\00:23:12.12
Blessing Is on
the "GO!" team yet.
00:23:12.22\00:23:14.29
When you sign up we
will send you a certificate
00:23:14.49\00:23:17.63
and it is signed by Danny.
00:23:17.93\00:23:19.89
He's getting a
little bit of writer's cramp
00:23:20.10\00:23:22.30
because he's been
signing these certificates.
00:23:22.40\00:23:25.10
You also get a
Blessing Is on the "GO!" book
00:23:25.30\00:23:27.60
and then you are
officially part of our team.
00:23:27.90\00:23:31.34
What I want to
do... I'd like to call
00:23:31.64\00:23:34.34
Jacki and Bruce Fjarli up.
00:23:34.54\00:23:37.25
Mollie, would you like to
come up here for a moment?
00:23:37.65\00:23:40.02
Because we have
Jacki and Bruce Fjarli...
00:23:40.32\00:23:45.75
They're like
"Whoa! " Yes, come on up.
00:23:45.95\00:23:50.06
You know, we were honored
earlier, just a few weeks ago,
00:23:50.36\00:23:54.80
to have a new chairman of
the board elected here at 3ABN,
00:23:55.00\00:23:59.03
and Bruce Fjarli is the
new chairman of the board of
00:23:59.23\00:24:01.94
directors at 3ABN.
And he and his family
00:24:02.04\00:24:05.54
have been so supportive
of 3ABN for many, many years.
00:24:05.77\00:24:08.98
Merlin was on the board before.
00:24:09.18\00:24:11.28
That's his father.
And we have something
00:24:11.58\00:24:15.12
now that we would like to
present to Jacki and to Bruce
00:24:15.32\00:24:20.52
and that would be their
Blessing Is on the "GO!"
00:24:24.56\00:24:27.26
evangelistic team certificate.
00:24:27.46\00:24:29.93
And Jacki's sitting here
saying: "If I'd know you were
00:24:30.33\00:24:32.90
going to do this I could
have gotten dressed up. "
00:24:33.00\00:24:34.97
That's not the
way we work at 3ABN!
00:24:35.37\00:24:38.07
And what you receive
when you first become a member
00:24:38.37\00:24:41.74
of the Blessing Is on
the "GO!" evangelistic team
00:24:41.84\00:24:45.01
is... Shelley, would you
like to give them their book.
00:24:45.21\00:24:47.85
Now the reason I
have two plaques here
00:24:47.88\00:24:52.79
is because Bruce, your
mother Jo Ann has been a member
00:24:52.99\00:24:57.39
of this team now
for quite some time
00:24:57.53\00:24:59.49
and she hasn't received
her certificate yet. So Jo Ann,
00:24:59.79\00:25:03.16
if you are watching,
thank you so much for being
00:25:03.26\00:25:05.80
a member of the team. And
I'm going to give it to Jacki
00:25:05.90\00:25:08.54
and I'm sure she'll
take good care of it
00:25:08.74\00:25:10.24
and give it to you. Thank you.
00:25:10.44\00:25:12.94
Thank you. Thank you so much.
00:25:13.24\00:25:14.58
And I just want to
say one more thing.
00:25:14.71\00:25:16.38
As C.A. said, the
reason I am so excited
00:25:16.88\00:25:20.15
is I believe
with all of my heart
00:25:20.35\00:25:23.12
this is how the Lord is going
to begin the Latter Rain...
00:25:23.32\00:25:29.22
pouring out the Latter Rain.
00:25:29.62\00:25:31.29
Because we can
talk about evangelism;
00:25:31.69\00:25:34.30
we can talk about revival;
00:25:34.60\00:25:36.40
we can study and
be among ourselves
00:25:36.60\00:25:39.53
till the cows come home,
and if we are not out sharing
00:25:40.34\00:25:46.07
we're dead! And
I use this analogy:
00:25:46.47\00:25:50.08
When we were in Israel...
the Jordan river at the source
00:25:50.28\00:25:54.12
of the Jordan is amazing.
It's just... you can feel
00:25:54.32\00:25:58.02
the ions in the air as
the river is rushing down.
00:25:58.22\00:26:01.69
This living water. And it
empties into the Sea of Galilee.
00:26:01.99\00:26:05.83
Well, the Sea of
Galilee is teeming with life.
00:26:06.13\00:26:09.66
There's life and
irrigation and farming
00:26:09.86\00:26:12.43
and there's just all this
life around the Sea of Galilee.
00:26:12.53\00:26:15.37
Why? Because the Sea
of Galilee has an outlet.
00:26:15.67\00:26:18.51
And the Jordan river then
goes on from the Sea of Galilee
00:26:18.81\00:26:22.38
to the Dead Sea.
00:26:22.68\00:26:24.85
Why is the Dead Sea dead?
00:26:25.25\00:26:27.75
Because there's no outlet.
00:26:28.05\00:26:30.12
And if you simply
receive the messages
00:26:30.42\00:26:34.86
but you don't share the messages
00:26:35.06\00:26:38.03
you're going to
be like the Dead Sea.
00:26:38.23\00:26:40.63
So what this program
will enable you to do...
00:26:40.93\00:26:44.37
If you're 9 to 90
years old you can participate
00:26:44.77\00:26:48.00
because you can share each
month this evangelistic tool
00:26:48.20\00:26:51.51
with... If you're a stay-at-home
person, if you have to have a
00:26:51.71\00:26:56.28
caregiver, you can
share it with your caregiver
00:26:56.38\00:26:58.35
or with the mailman. Or
you can invite people over
00:26:58.55\00:27:01.68
to watch it or to discuss it.
00:27:01.88\00:27:04.42
This is a program
that anyone can do.
00:27:04.72\00:27:07.52
And not only will you
be supporting... be growing
00:27:07.72\00:27:11.03
yourself but you're also helping
3ABN. We've got big plans
00:27:11.23\00:27:15.10
for evangelistic
series around the world
00:27:15.30\00:27:17.47
and it is going to be exciting.
00:27:17.77\00:27:20.04
But the way I feel is
we evangelize every day.
00:27:20.24\00:27:22.67
So... here's the deal:
00:27:23.07\00:27:25.04
I'm going to be "dogging" you
00:27:25.24\00:27:27.14
through the rest
of the Camp Meeting.
00:27:27.54\00:27:29.81
We've got a
sign-up booth out here
00:27:30.11\00:27:32.05
and if you haven't signed
up by the end, come see me.
00:27:32.25\00:27:35.68
I'll talk you into it.
00:27:35.98\00:27:37.65
You can tell that she
is so very, very excited.
00:27:40.96\00:27:43.32
You know, when your spiritual
batteries are running low
00:27:43.53\00:27:47.96
the way to recharge them is
to work at helping someone else
00:27:48.16\00:27:51.93
come to Jesus. It
works on a personal level
00:27:52.03\00:27:54.60
and it also works
on a corporate level.
00:27:54.80\00:27:56.64
It works on a church level.
00:27:56.84\00:27:58.17
I have found that in all of
my churches when people begin to
00:27:58.21\00:28:01.61
pick at each other a little bit
and get on each other's nerves
00:28:01.71\00:28:04.11
and get cabin fever
the antidote for that
00:28:04.21\00:28:06.68
is training your
spiritual guns on the enemy
00:28:06.88\00:28:09.48
and going out and
stealing souls from his kingdom.
00:28:09.68\00:28:11.79
Hal is saying "Amen"
because you know that is true.
00:28:11.99\00:28:13.79
When you want a
spiritual boost in your own life
00:28:13.99\00:28:17.33
work for the
salvation of somebody else.
00:28:17.63\00:28:19.93
Lift up the name of Jesus
00:28:20.23\00:28:21.56
and in helping them I
guarantee you you will be
00:28:21.66\00:28:23.87
lifting up yourself. We
have targeted a number of areas
00:28:23.97\00:28:26.43
that the Lord has
impressed Danny to look at
00:28:26.74\00:28:29.67
around the
world. There was a time
00:28:29.87\00:28:32.27
when 3ABN was very
steeped in world evangelism.
00:28:32.47\00:28:35.81
We've got Julia
Outkina sitting there.
00:28:36.11\00:28:37.78
That was a consequence
of a meeting done in 1992
00:28:37.98\00:28:41.82
in the former Soviet Union.
00:28:42.22\00:28:44.25
We've gone to Papua, New
Guinea. Very large meetings.
00:28:45.12\00:28:47.66
Well God is
impressing us to do that again.
00:28:47.82\00:28:50.66
Do we have the wherewithall?
No we don't... but God does.
00:28:50.86\00:28:54.70
And when God... What do
you say, Mollie? When God
00:28:55.00\00:28:57.60
guides He provides;
00:28:57.80\00:28:59.13
when God leads He
gives you what you need.
00:28:59.17\00:29:00.90
So we're not worried about that.
We're just answering the call
00:29:01.20\00:29:03.54
of God. On next month we
will be traveling over to London
00:29:03.64\00:29:07.58
to just look at the possi-
bilities of doing a big meeting
00:29:07.74\00:29:11.38
there. I want you to
make that a matter of prayer.
00:29:11.48\00:29:13.31
There is resistance there.
00:29:13.62\00:29:15.32
Not so much from the church...
but England is a tough place.
00:29:15.92\00:29:19.95
Europe is a tough place.
00:29:20.16\00:29:21.49
The work is not growing
like it could or perhaps should
00:29:21.52\00:29:24.19
there, but we believe that
God wants to do a mighty work
00:29:24.29\00:29:27.76
in Europe like He wants
to do it in Africa, like He
00:29:27.96\00:29:31.40
wants to do it in
North and South America,
00:29:31.50\00:29:33.97
like He wants to do
it all around the world.
00:29:34.27\00:29:36.37
Our job is not to make
souls or create Adventists.
00:29:36.67\00:29:41.38
Our job is to lift
up the name of Jesus
00:29:41.68\00:29:44.21
and let the Holy
Spirit do the rest.
00:29:44.41\00:29:46.88
Because Christ has guaranteed
"If I be lifted up... "
00:29:47.08\00:29:51.19
who will draw? "I will draw... "
00:29:51.39\00:29:53.79
So our job is just to get
going because the blessing
00:29:53.99\00:29:56.46
is on the? Is on the
GO. And you will hear that
00:29:56.56\00:29:59.29
over and over and
over again this weekend
00:29:59.39\00:30:01.96
because we
believe it in our heart.
00:30:02.16\00:30:03.53
It's not just something
that comes out of our mouths.
00:30:03.63\00:30:05.60
It is something that
eminates from our hearts.
00:30:05.80\00:30:07.27
We believe that
when you go for God
00:30:07.47\00:30:09.50
#1 God goes with you
00:30:09.70\00:30:11.34
Actually, He goes ahead of you
00:30:11.64\00:30:13.88
and prepares the way
and then He goes behind you
00:30:14.08\00:30:17.15
to get your back
to keep the devil off.
00:30:17.25\00:30:19.11
And He walks beside you
to give power to your words
00:30:19.31\00:30:21.75
so victory is guaranteed.
00:30:21.95\00:30:24.12
So we want to remember
these initiatives in prayer.
00:30:24.42\00:30:27.49
This "GO" evangelism is
not just something we say.
00:30:28.09\00:30:32.13
It is something we are going
to do by the grace and power
00:30:32.33\00:30:35.10
of Jesus Christ. Let me
ask you a question quickly:
00:30:35.30\00:30:37.40
how many have ever had
an experience in your life
00:30:37.50\00:30:39.63
that you know
came from the Lord?
00:30:39.83\00:30:42.40
No doubt in your mind.
You went through something
00:30:42.70\00:30:44.94
and you know that
was God's deliverance.
00:30:45.14\00:30:46.94
And God gives you that to let
you know that He's by your side.
00:30:47.24\00:30:50.18
That's why we love Him:
00:30:50.38\00:30:51.88
because of all of the
things He's done for us.
00:30:51.98\00:30:54.98
When I think how Jesus loved me,
00:31:12.00\00:31:17.54
how He waited patiently
00:31:18.04\00:31:22.14
even when I turned
my back and walked away.
00:31:22.34\00:31:28.32
When He knew I wanted everything
00:31:29.68\00:31:33.49
this world could offer me
00:31:33.89\00:31:37.93
well I guess He knew
the price I'd have to pay.
00:31:38.33\00:31:43.67
So He watched me
stumble downward,
00:31:43.97\00:31:48.00
saw each compromise I made,
00:31:48.40\00:31:52.07
heard each lie I
whispered just to get my way.
00:31:52.37\00:31:58.28
Still He waited there to hear me
00:31:58.58\00:32:02.92
when I cried to Him and prayed
00:32:03.35\00:32:08.12
then He saved my soul
00:32:08.42\00:32:10.49
and that is why I say:
00:32:10.69\00:32:14.66
"Tell me, is it any wonder
00:32:14.96\00:32:20.64
that I love Him
00:32:21.14\00:32:25.67
when you consider
all He's done for me?
00:32:25.97\00:32:31.98
And is it any wonder
00:32:33.21\00:32:37.62
that I long to do His will
00:32:37.92\00:32:41.29
and let His light shine out
00:32:41.79\00:32:44.49
for all to see?
00:32:44.69\00:32:48.03
And is it any wonder
00:32:48.23\00:32:53.54
that I praise Him
00:32:53.94\00:32:57.81
each time I think of how
00:32:58.11\00:33:01.38
He's made me free?
00:33:01.58\00:33:05.18
And is it any wonder
00:33:05.38\00:33:09.38
that I've given Him my heart
00:33:09.78\00:33:13.56
when Jesus freely
gave His life for me? "
00:33:13.76\00:33:19.73
When I think how Jesus loves me,
00:33:32.31\00:33:37.08
how He watches patiently,
00:33:37.58\00:33:42.08
how His arms outstretch
to meet me when I run.
00:33:42.38\00:33:48.29
When I'm feeling down and lonely
00:33:48.59\00:33:52.89
how He's there to comfort me.
00:33:53.29\00:33:57.30
In the darkness He
becomes my morning sun.
00:33:57.60\00:34:03.51
When I think of
how He healed me,
00:34:03.71\00:34:07.54
how He touched me in my pain,
00:34:07.84\00:34:11.51
how His gentle hands
have wiped my tears away.
00:34:11.81\00:34:17.82
Now He's taken every heartache
00:34:18.82\00:34:22.46
and brought happiness again...
00:34:22.76\00:34:26.53
Oh I want the world to hear me
00:34:26.83\00:34:30.30
when I say:
00:34:30.43\00:34:33.20
"Tell me, is it any wonder
00:34:33.34\00:34:39.31
that I love Him
00:34:39.81\00:34:43.71
when you consider
all He's done for me?
00:34:44.15\00:34:50.02
And is it any wonder
00:34:51.12\00:34:54.59
that I long to do His will
00:34:54.99\00:34:58.99
and let His light
shine out for all to see?
00:34:59.29\00:35:05.23
And is it any wonder
00:35:05.53\00:35:10.51
that I praise Him
00:35:10.81\00:35:15.01
each time I think of how
00:35:15.31\00:35:18.51
He's made me free?
00:35:18.81\00:35:22.58
And is it any wonder
00:35:22.88\00:35:26.49
that I've given Him my heart
00:35:26.99\00:35:30.53
when Jesus freely
00:35:30.83\00:35:35.06
gave His life
00:35:35.46\00:35:38.67
for me? "
00:35:38.87\00:35:44.77
Amen!
00:35:55.78\00:35:57.22
Do you sense things
are popping at 3ABN?
00:36:00.36\00:36:03.83
It's kind of like the
popcorn popper you know you use
00:36:04.33\00:36:07.40
at home and accidently
flip the lid off, you know?
00:36:07.50\00:36:10.30
That popcorn
just goes everywhere.
00:36:10.40\00:36:12.33
That's kind of
what's happening here!
00:36:12.63\00:36:14.20
One of the fun
things about being at 3ABN
00:36:16.27\00:36:19.71
and also one of the challenging
things about being at 3ABN
00:36:19.91\00:36:23.85
is when we get a vision, when
God inspires us to do something
00:36:23.98\00:36:28.88
we don't think about the logis-
tics. We just start doing it
00:36:29.18\00:36:32.15
and then work out the
logistics afterwards! Amen!
00:36:32.45\00:36:34.99
And that's been happening
with the "Blessing on the "GO!"
00:36:35.19\00:36:37.66
So if some of you out there
have not got your "Blessing
00:36:37.96\00:36:41.26
on the "GO!" certificate
and you know you've signed up
00:36:41.46\00:36:43.87
and have given for that,
send us an e-mail, call us.
00:36:44.17\00:36:48.34
We're still working out
all the bugs on the thing
00:36:48.54\00:36:51.31
and we'll be happy to
get you your certificate
00:36:51.51\00:36:54.61
and your first gift that you can
use as a tool for witnessing.
00:36:54.91\00:37:00.22
You know, in life
we're not always given
00:37:00.65\00:37:04.05
joy and happiness.
Sometimes sorrow and sadness
00:37:05.95\00:37:09.59
come our way. Sometimes
we're given a sack of lemons.
00:37:09.79\00:37:14.73
But you know, God's in the
business of taking a sack of
00:37:15.23\00:37:19.13
lemons that life
might have given to you or I
00:37:19.23\00:37:21.77
and turning that into lemonade.
00:37:21.97\00:37:23.64
And that happened to
us about five years ago.
00:37:23.94\00:37:26.34
Something happened in our
family that brought tragedy
00:37:26.64\00:37:29.28
and sorrow to our
life. But God took that thing
00:37:29.38\00:37:32.01
and He brought a ministry
out of it that's been one of
00:37:32.21\00:37:35.05
most... one of the greatest
blessings Diane and I have ever
00:37:35.15\00:37:38.75
participated in, and I'm
talking about prison ministry.
00:37:38.85\00:37:41.66
And Danny has let me loose
00:37:41.86\00:37:45.73
from being a
bean counter at 3ABN.
00:37:45.93\00:37:48.70
You know? The kind with a green
eye shade sitting in a corner
00:37:48.90\00:37:51.23
mumbling, you know?
He's let me loose from that.
00:37:51.43\00:37:53.97
He's given me a great assistant
who is a young man named
00:37:54.17\00:37:57.44
Davy Rodriguez.
Davy is taking over
00:37:57.64\00:38:01.04
the day-to-day accounting
aspect, and Danny has let me
00:38:01.24\00:38:05.01
loose to be involved, or more
involved in prison ministry.
00:38:05.21\00:38:08.72
And I am so excited about it.
00:38:08.95\00:38:10.95
We just have started
the logistics of my move.
00:38:11.15\00:38:14.49
I've got into my new
office but not settled.
00:38:14.69\00:38:17.06
But I'm in there. I got my
computer, and we're getting
00:38:17.26\00:38:20.80
ready to launch out in some
new areas in prison ministry.
00:38:20.96\00:38:24.90
One of the things that prisoners
have is something called time.
00:38:25.30\00:38:30.81
They have a lot of time often.
00:38:31.21\00:38:33.78
And they do have
televisions in prisons.
00:38:34.18\00:38:38.05
And there's a certain number
of channels they get to watch.
00:38:38.45\00:38:41.42
It's chosen for them.
00:38:41.72\00:38:43.85
And we think 3ABN and
its network of channels
00:38:44.15\00:38:47.92
would be ideal
for those guys to see.
00:38:48.12\00:38:50.73
Don't you think so? Yes!
00:38:51.03\00:38:52.79
And so we're working to do that.
00:38:52.99\00:38:54.53
Just a few weeks ago I
was teaming up with Lemuel,
00:38:54.83\00:38:58.57
Christmas Behind Bars,
and we went to Arkansas...
00:38:58.77\00:39:01.14
to two prisons in
Arkansas giving gift bags.
00:39:01.34\00:39:04.97
And one of them was a
maximum security prison.
00:39:05.27\00:39:08.08
And we went from
dorm unit to dorm unit
00:39:08.48\00:39:11.51
sharing testimony, singing,
and giving each of the guys
00:39:11.71\00:39:16.32
a gift bag. They saved till last
00:39:16.52\00:39:21.62
two of the units that
they call "segregation units"
00:39:21.82\00:39:25.69
and they warned us: "These
are the worst of the worst.
00:39:26.09\00:39:29.96
I mean, we won't let you
up to the doors of these guys'
00:39:30.37\00:39:34.07
cells because you don't
know what they might throw out
00:39:34.27\00:39:38.11
at you. So just be prepared.
00:39:38.21\00:39:40.78
They'll yell at you;
they'll scream at you. "
00:39:41.08\00:39:42.91
And so we were
prepared for the worst.
00:39:43.11\00:39:45.38
But you know, as we went
in there... They had already
00:39:46.15\00:39:49.35
given the gift bag through
the slot into each of the cells.
00:39:49.55\00:39:53.19
When we got in there and
started sharing our testimony
00:39:53.39\00:39:55.59
you could hear a pin drop.
Amen! They would clap for us
00:39:55.79\00:39:59.53
and they would shout
words of encouragement.
00:39:59.83\00:40:02.66
The guards were absolutely
blown away at the reaction
00:40:02.70\00:40:06.90
of what they considered
the worst of the worst.
00:40:07.10\00:40:09.97
Both of those prisons
are interested in having 3ABN
00:40:10.97\00:40:15.14
in those facilities
as a result of that.
00:40:15.34\00:40:18.78
God is opening doors. We
look forward to your support.
00:40:19.08\00:40:22.42
If you want to be involved
in it... You can send donations
00:40:22.72\00:40:26.49
but we'd also be happy to net-
work with you and your churches
00:40:26.69\00:40:29.62
to try to get
something going in your area
00:40:29.82\00:40:32.46
if you have a prison or help
you get started in a county jail
00:40:32.66\00:40:36.20
ministry. Anyway, God
is doing great things.
00:40:36.40\00:40:38.60
There is a
blessing on the GO, friends,
00:40:38.80\00:40:41.07
and we're about
going. Thank you. Amen!
00:40:41.27\00:40:44.77
Good evening. Good evening!
00:40:48.91\00:40:50.95
We are so excited to
have you here to join us
00:40:51.05\00:40:54.55
here for our
Camp Meeting session.
00:40:54.75\00:40:56.69
I always look forward
to Camp Meeting because
00:40:56.89\00:40:59.29
it's a time when our
spirits also get watered.
00:40:59.49\00:41:02.66
We are... We're in ministry
and we're always giving out
00:41:02.86\00:41:08.00
and it's so great at
Camp Meeting time we can have
00:41:08.20\00:41:10.87
our spirits watered as well.
00:41:10.97\00:41:12.63
So it is a blessing to
be here with you tonight.
00:41:12.93\00:41:16.91
And I have here
with me my son/assistant
00:41:17.14\00:41:22.01
Jason Bradley. And I am,
of course... I'm Yvonne Lewis.
00:41:22.21\00:41:26.48
I'm the general
manager of 3ABN's Dare to Dream
00:41:26.68\00:41:30.15
urban network. How
many of you? How many of you
00:41:30.35\00:41:33.09
have watched Dare to
Dream at least one time?
00:41:33.32\00:41:35.22
Praise the Lord! Praise
the Lord! That is great.
00:41:35.42\00:41:39.43
Well, if you only knew that
basically we have two people
00:41:39.66\00:41:43.60
in that department
it is really something.
00:41:43.70\00:41:47.90
And I have to tell you
that the Lord is so faithful.
00:41:48.10\00:41:52.61
He is so
faithful. He has brought us
00:41:52.91\00:41:55.61
programming and
people to host the programs
00:41:55.91\00:42:00.52
and all that. And He
brought my son as my assistant.
00:42:00.62\00:42:03.45
And I want to just ask him
a couple of questions here.
00:42:03.69\00:42:05.99
Jason, introduce yourself.
00:42:06.19\00:42:07.92
Well I'm Jason
Bradley. This is my mother/boss.
00:42:08.22\00:42:11.59
She's been my boss
for twenty-nine years now.
00:42:13.50\00:42:15.80
Not too much has changed there.
00:42:16.20\00:42:18.57
But it's great to be a part of
a network that is reaching out
00:42:19.47\00:42:25.07
and sharing the gospel of
Jesus Christ to the world.
00:42:25.27\00:42:27.81
You've been hearing about
"The Blessing Is on the "GO!"
00:42:28.11\00:42:30.21
and now we are
actually witnessing
00:42:30.51\00:42:34.98
prophecy being fulfilled.
00:42:35.18\00:42:36.69
You get... You can turn
on the TV and see on the news
00:42:36.89\00:42:40.36
that all these things
that you've been reading about
00:42:40.56\00:42:43.26
in the Bible are
coming into fruition.
00:42:43.46\00:42:45.56
My mother... She
also always says to me
00:42:45.96\00:42:49.13
"Jay, you've got to get
out there and share Jesus with
00:42:49.63\00:42:53.44
everybody because you wouldn't
let somebody run into a burning
00:42:53.54\00:42:56.97
building, would you? "
00:42:57.17\00:42:58.71
"Like no... " "So...
you've got to share Christ.
00:42:58.91\00:43:01.51
You don't want
anybody burning up! "
00:43:01.71\00:43:03.95
So we've got to get out there;
"The Blessing Is on the "GO!"
00:43:04.31\00:43:08.05
And with Dare to Dream
we've been accompanying Brian
00:43:08.35\00:43:12.42
Hamilton and Moses Primo, Jr.
00:43:12.62\00:43:14.89
going to American
Corrections Assoc. convention
00:43:15.09\00:43:18.06
because those
inmates need Jesus as well.
00:43:18.26\00:43:21.16
It's for every living
soul... every creature.
00:43:21.36\00:43:23.87
We need to share the plan
of salvation. And I'm so happy
00:43:23.97\00:43:27.47
that Dare to Dream is in-
corporating all of those things.
00:43:27.57\00:43:30.64
We're so happy that
you are with us at 3ABN.
00:43:30.84\00:43:34.31
You are a valuable employee; a
valuable addition to our family
00:43:34.51\00:43:38.18
and it is truly a
blessing to have him.
00:43:38.48\00:43:41.35
Speaking of family,
yesterday in our office
00:43:41.55\00:43:44.99
Julia, Elena, and Vadim came in
00:43:46.22\00:43:48.86
and Julia was
translating for us.
00:43:49.06\00:43:52.89
And one of the things
that amazed me so much
00:43:53.23\00:43:57.33
is the fact that
God has told Elena
00:43:57.73\00:44:01.17
to do the same programs -
the same kinds of programs -
00:44:01.37\00:44:05.31
that He told me to do.
00:44:05.34\00:44:07.61
And so around the world God
is telling us to give programs.
00:44:07.81\00:44:13.82
Programs for men;
programs on money management;
00:44:14.02\00:44:18.39
a program on the sanctuary.
00:44:18.59\00:44:20.56
She was telling me that
she is doing a program on
00:44:20.76\00:44:23.16
the sanctuary in 3ABN Russia
00:44:23.36\00:44:25.33
and I feel impressed
to do the same thing:
00:44:25.53\00:44:27.70
to do a program
on the sanctuary.
00:44:27.93\00:44:29.83
And so, Lord willing,
we're going to do that
00:44:30.03\00:44:31.87
for Dare to Dream. And
Elena and I, even though
00:44:32.07\00:44:34.37
we don't speak the
same language so to speak,
00:44:34.57\00:44:37.77
we speak the same
heavenly language because
00:44:37.97\00:44:41.51
we bonded. There
was a bonding there.
00:44:41.71\00:44:45.51
And I'm so thankful
that God is using you, Elena,
00:44:45.81\00:44:49.75
and that you are
doing that work in Russia
00:44:49.98\00:44:52.99
and we are doing the
same kinds of programs here.
00:44:53.19\00:44:56.22
We know that we serve a
mighty, powerful, faithful God.
00:44:56.42\00:45:01.33
And so it is
amazing. Next week...
00:45:01.83\00:45:04.87
Tell them what we're
going to do next week, Jay.
00:45:05.10\00:45:06.87
We have some really
exciting things in store.
00:45:07.27\00:45:10.14
That's another great thing
about Dare to Dream is we offer
00:45:10.34\00:45:12.67
practical tools for living
and the gospel of Jesus Christ.
00:45:12.87\00:45:16.28
Amen. Not only do you
tell people about Jesus
00:45:16.48\00:45:19.15
but how can they live as a
Christian. What type of things?
00:45:19.25\00:45:22.12
We are going to produce a pro-
gram called Working the Dream:
00:45:23.12\00:45:29.09
how to bring
Christ into the workplace.
00:45:29.29\00:45:31.96
How do you carry yourself? You
have to operate with integrity.
00:45:32.26\00:45:36.40
All these things that
the community needs to hear.
00:45:36.50\00:45:39.93
You'd be surprised at the
people... I used to manage
00:45:40.14\00:45:42.17
a restaurant
prior to working here.
00:45:42.27\00:45:44.57
And you'd be surprised at
some of the people that you
00:45:44.87\00:45:48.01
interview. And it's probably
because they didn't have anybody
00:45:48.21\00:45:52.28
teaching them. So
it's important. We want to
00:45:52.48\00:45:54.68
teach them the
right way and God's way.
00:45:54.78\00:45:57.95
Yes. And we have
another program coming up
00:45:58.35\00:46:01.49
for men called "Cuttin' Loose. "
00:46:01.69\00:46:03.96
And that program is
based in a barber shop.
00:46:04.36\00:46:07.83
And the barber shop in the
black community is kind of where
00:46:08.23\00:46:10.57
the guys go and hang out
and talk politics and religion
00:46:10.67\00:46:13.47
and relationships and all that.
00:46:13.60\00:46:15.07
So we're going to be
taping that one, Lord willing,
00:46:15.37\00:46:18.01
at the end of October. And this
conversation at this barber shop
00:46:18.21\00:46:23.65
will be from God's perspective
not the world's perspective.
00:46:23.95\00:46:27.32
That's right; that's right.
Amen; amen! That's a lot better.
00:46:27.52\00:46:29.38
To me, when you think about
00:46:31.15\00:46:33.86
how awesome God is
00:46:35.66\00:46:38.33
and how He loves us so much...
00:46:38.63\00:46:41.56
You know, Pastor C.A.
talked about our love for God
00:46:41.86\00:46:46.17
in Is It Any Wonder, and
this song that I'm going to do
00:46:46.37\00:46:51.14
really looks at
God's love for each of us
00:46:51.37\00:46:55.01
for we are His one true love.
00:46:55.31\00:47:00.22
I am faithful
00:47:12.73\00:47:16.20
so I won't let you fall.
00:47:16.97\00:47:21.20
You are My all in all,
00:47:21.60\00:47:24.77
My everything,
00:47:25.07\00:47:27.68
you're My everything.
00:47:27.98\00:47:30.38
And you're special...
00:47:30.68\00:47:33.55
I shed My blood to show
00:47:35.22\00:47:39.99
that I won't let you go
00:47:40.29\00:47:43.22
for anything, not anything.
00:47:43.53\00:47:48.63
'Cause I reached down
00:47:48.93\00:47:53.54
into the pit of
hell to save you.
00:47:53.74\00:47:59.04
I forgot
00:47:59.54\00:48:02.31
all of the sins
that I forgave you
00:48:03.11\00:48:08.22
'cause you are
00:48:08.52\00:48:11.09
My one
00:48:11.39\00:48:15.86
true love.
00:48:16.06\00:48:21.20
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh...
00:48:23.30\00:48:27.07
You're forgiven
00:48:27.37\00:48:30.27
and if you have faith you'll see
00:48:30.81\00:48:34.81
that you have been set free
00:48:35.31\00:48:39.18
from
everything... yes, everything.
00:48:39.48\00:48:44.09
So you can fly again
00:48:44.59\00:48:49.16
for I have overcome.
00:48:49.46\00:48:53.50
All of the work's been done,
00:48:54.00\00:48:56.97
you're white as snow,
00:48:57.27\00:48:59.27
you're white as snow.
00:48:59.57\00:49:02.50
'Cause in My death
00:49:02.80\00:49:07.28
there is an absolute atonement.
00:49:07.68\00:49:12.65
Tell Me "yes, "
00:49:12.98\00:49:15.65
and you'll be
clean this very moment
00:49:16.48\00:49:22.12
'cause you are
00:49:22.42\00:49:24.89
My... My one
00:49:25.19\00:49:29.60
true love.
00:49:29.90\00:49:34.57
Oh, oh, oh,
00:49:37.07\00:49:40.78
in My death
00:49:41.08\00:49:44.35
there is an absolute atonement.
00:49:44.75\00:49:50.65
Tell Me "yes, "
00:49:51.15\00:49:54.06
and you'll be
clean this very moment
00:49:54.32\00:49:58.96
'cause you are
00:49:59.26\00:50:01.90
My one
00:50:02.20\00:50:06.60
true
00:50:06.90\00:50:09.20
love.
00:50:09.50\00:50:13.11
Oh you are - yes you are -
00:50:14.21\00:50:17.15
I said: "You are
00:50:17.45\00:50:20.55
My one
00:50:20.85\00:50:25.59
true
00:50:25.69\00:50:29.96
love. "
00:50:30.36\00:50:36.36
Amen! Beautiful,
Yvonne. Beautiful!
00:50:44.81\00:50:48.44
Wow! Ya'll been blessed so far?
00:50:49.51\00:50:51.91
Hey, we're just gettin' started.
00:50:52.31\00:50:53.92
We've got a few more minutes,
and I'll know as soon as they
00:50:54.02\00:50:56.32
put the clock back up so I'll
know how many minutes we got.
00:50:56.42\00:50:59.15
But we're having a great time
and we've got Elder John Carter
00:50:59.55\00:51:03.06
who's going to be
here in a few minutes.
00:51:03.26\00:51:04.59
And I'm looking forward to that,
so we've got a few more minutes
00:51:04.96\00:51:08.40
and what I wanted to do:
I was thinking about Jason.
00:51:08.60\00:51:10.63
Jason was up here.
Stand up a second, Jay.
00:51:10.87\00:51:12.47
Now he and his mother were
visiting one of the jails right
00:51:12.97\00:51:17.74
here in Franklin County.
00:51:17.84\00:51:19.17
If some of you haven't noticed
Franklin Co. is mostly a white
00:51:19.34\00:51:22.61
county, right? Jason goes
into a jail and he says...
00:51:22.81\00:51:26.05
He said: "Wow! Almost
everybody in there was white. "
00:51:26.35\00:51:29.12
Well there was a
little boy that was in there
00:51:29.52\00:51:31.89
about 5, 6, 7 Jay?
00:51:32.09\00:51:34.19
Yeah, probably about 5, 6.
And this little boy was looking
00:51:34.49\00:51:37.49
at you - a little white
boy - and what'd he say:
00:51:37.59\00:51:39.19
"Are you the president? "
00:51:39.49\00:51:42.36
I was like:
"No... no, no, no, no. "
00:51:49.10\00:51:51.77
Hey, he looks like
presidential stuff to me,
00:51:52.27\00:51:54.31
doesn't he to you? All right!
00:51:54.51\00:51:56.54
That's a good one. He's up
here and I'm trying to listen
00:51:57.05\00:51:59.58
and be spiritual and I'm
thinking about what he told me
00:51:59.78\00:52:01.88
yesterday. I said:
"Now that is funny! "
00:52:01.98\00:52:04.22
This little kid: he
didn't know. He said: "Hey... "
00:52:04.42\00:52:06.22
He looked so good he
thought you were the president.
00:52:06.42\00:52:08.59
How about that? We have
just a few minutes left.
00:52:08.79\00:52:10.86
What we want to do... We're
going to play one more song
00:52:11.16\00:52:13.09
from this kid's CD.
00:52:13.19\00:52:15.30
And I had never
written a song...
00:52:15.70\00:52:18.57
We've done a CD
called "Love Rules"
00:52:18.87\00:52:21.70
and so we've got about 20 songs.
And I said: "There's very few
00:52:21.90\00:52:24.97
songs that I've
heard anybody write
00:52:25.27\00:52:27.31
about lifestyle and
diet and what you eat.
00:52:27.51\00:52:30.88
So we came up
with this little song
00:52:31.28\00:52:33.31
that says "You
are what you eat. "
00:52:33.52\00:52:35.35
And so we've got these
kids that's gonna be singing it
00:52:35.85\00:52:38.42
for you right now. I
think you'll enjoy their music.
00:52:38.62\00:52:41.36
"You are what you
eat" I've been told.
00:52:49.66\00:52:53.13
If this is true,
I plan to grow old.
00:52:53.44\00:52:57.87
Let's take a look at
what the Bible has to say
00:52:59.71\00:53:02.98
about the foods we eat each day.
00:53:03.01\00:53:06.51
Genesis tells about
fruits, nuts, and grains;
00:53:06.82\00:53:10.09
Leviticus tells
us what else remains.
00:53:10.29\00:53:14.22
Let's read about
it in Genesis 1:29:
00:53:15.36\00:53:18.16
The book of Leviticus
describes the two categories
00:53:29.70\00:53:32.37
of animal food:
clean and unclean.
00:53:32.47\00:53:34.81
God commanded that His
people only eat clean meat
00:53:35.21\00:53:37.75
as described in
Leviticus the 11th chapter.
00:53:37.95\00:53:40.65
No pig; no
catfish; no mice; no rabbit.
00:53:41.25\00:53:44.95
No shrimp; no squirrel;
no oysters; no dog or cat.
00:53:45.15\00:53:49.16
No snakes!
00:53:49.36\00:53:50.89
Let's take a look at
what the Bible has to say
00:53:51.59\00:53:54.90
about God's
plan for us each day.
00:53:55.10\00:53:58.37
To be healthy and
happy in every way:
00:53:58.67\00:54:02.00
this is God's
plan for us each day.
00:54:02.40\00:54:06.51
Boys and girls:
we belong to Jesus.
00:54:07.74\00:54:10.01
And because He loves us
He has given us great advice
00:54:10.21\00:54:13.35
on how to be healthy and happy.
00:54:13.45\00:54:15.32
Let's read I
Corinthians 6:19-20.
00:54:15.72\00:54:18.82
Now I know... the
truth's been told...
00:54:36.64\00:54:39.87
and with God's
help I plan to grow old.
00:54:40.08\00:54:44.55
Aren't you glad that God
has a plan for your life?
00:54:44.85\00:54:47.32
III John 2 tells
us what that plan is.
00:54:47.82\00:54:50.95
Jeremiah confirms this
plan in chapter 29 verse 11:
00:54:58.43\00:55:02.53
If you give your life to Jesus
00:55:12.21\00:55:14.44
and take care of
your body by exercising
00:55:14.64\00:55:17.35
and eating the
right kinds of food,
00:55:17.55\00:55:19.41
then you, too, can sing:
00:55:19.71\00:55:21.42
Now I know... the
truth's been told...
00:55:21.75\00:55:24.92
and with God's
help I plan to grow old.
00:55:25.22\00:55:29.62
And with God's
help I plan to grow old.
00:55:32.03\00:55:35.46
I plan to grow old.
00:55:35.56\00:55:39.03
Amen! For those
at home, they saw it.
00:55:43.84\00:55:46.71
These screens are a little
bit delayed for those of you
00:55:46.91\00:55:48.91
in the audience. I noticed
the lips weren't quite with the
00:55:49.01\00:55:51.41
but they actually are with that.
For those at home they could see
00:55:51.61\00:55:54.72
that but for our audience I
thought I should let them know.
00:55:54.82\00:55:57.02
Hey, we're having a
great time here, aren't we?
00:55:57.35\00:55:59.05
Yes we are, and
the fun has just begun!
00:55:59.25\00:56:02.02
Yeah. Pastor Carter will be
up here in a just a few minutes.
00:56:02.32\00:56:05.69
How many of you are
looking forward? I am.
00:56:05.89\00:56:08.86
'Cause he has an incredible
message for us tonight.
00:56:08.96\00:56:11.40
And again, it's one of those
messages that's going to change
00:56:11.60\00:56:14.60
us into His image
and into His likeness.
00:56:14.80\00:56:17.51
Amen! The Word of God says
that this gospel of the kingdom
00:56:17.67\00:56:20.44
shall be preached where?
00:56:20.84\00:56:22.64
In all the world for a
witness unto every nation.
00:56:22.84\00:56:27.05
All nations, and then
what's going to happen?
00:56:27.25\00:56:28.82
Then the end. Aren't you
ready for the end to come?
00:56:29.12\00:56:31.59
Yes! Ready for the end to come?
00:56:31.79\00:56:33.29
Ellen White says we have a
part to play in the hastening
00:56:33.69\00:56:36.93
of that end and the
finishing of that work.
00:56:37.23\00:56:39.56
How many want to at the
beginning of this Camp Meeting
00:56:40.06\00:56:41.83
'cause we're going to
ask you again at the end
00:56:42.03\00:56:43.37
want to pledge to do all
you can to hasten the coming of
00:56:43.40\00:56:45.87
Christ in all the
world? Amen! Amen.
00:56:46.07\00:56:47.90
That means going to
your next-door neighbor.
00:56:48.10\00:56:49.60
Going to that relative that you
haven't talked to in a while.
00:56:49.90\00:56:52.11
Oh-oh... Um-hmm.
00:56:53.38\00:56:54.81
Going to that person that
may not have done you right
00:56:55.31\00:56:57.45
and letting them
know that you love them
00:56:57.85\00:57:00.58
but more than
that Jesus loves them
00:57:00.78\00:57:04.02
and being an agent
of change for them.
00:57:04.52\00:57:07.06
Let's close with just
a short word of prayer.
00:57:07.16\00:57:08.92
Father God, how we
love You and praise You!
00:57:09.12\00:57:11.63
And we call upon Your Spirit to
bless us here at the beginning
00:57:12.03\00:57:15.56
of this Camp Meeting. We
dedicate ourselves to You
00:57:15.76\00:57:18.50
so that every
word that is spoken
00:57:18.90\00:57:22.04
will go into our
hearts. Yes, oh God.
00:57:22.24\00:57:24.24
Every thought will be on Jesus;
every song that is sung will
00:57:24.34\00:57:28.04
lift us up towards heaven so
that when we leave this place
00:57:28.24\00:57:31.48
we will take the power
and presence of Christ...
00:57:31.68\00:57:35.28
