WELL, THEY GAVE ME THE
00:07:42.86\00:07:47.36
TOUGHEST TOPIC TO
DEAL WITH TONIGHT.
00:07:47.36\00:07:49.16
[ LAUGHTER ] >> AND
SOMEHOW I FEEL LIKE THAT
00:07:49.16\00:07:57.71
OLD BLACK LADY, SHE WAS 93 YEARS
OLD, IN THE HOSPITAL, NOT DOING
00:07:57.71\00:08:03.55
VERY WELL, HER FAMILY HAS COME
TO VISIT, AND -- AND THEY WERE
00:08:03.55\00:08:09.02
STANDING AROUND HER BED.
THE DOCTOR CAME IN, AND WHEN THE
00:08:09.02\00:08:14.72
FAMILY LEFT, IT WAS JUST
THAT OLD LADY, THE DOCTOR, WAS
00:08:14.72\00:08:20.76
TALKING ABOUT THE FAMILY ABOUT
WHETHER OR NOT TO DO HEROIC
00:08:20.76\00:08:25.13
MEASURES, YOU KNOW?-WELL, WHEN
THE FAMILY LEFT, THE DOCTOR AND
THAT OLD LADY IN THE
00:08:25.13\00:08:31.87
HOSPITAL ROOM, ALONE, AND
SHE RAISED HER HAND AND WITH ONE
00:08:31.87\00:08:36.18
LONG BONY FINGER,
SHE DID LIKE THIS.
00:08:36.18\00:08:38.81
[ LAUGHTER ] >> HE
CAME OVER TO HER SIDE, AND
00:08:38.81\00:08:46.39
HE IS LEANED UP TO HIM AS FAR
AS SHE COULD, AND HE SAID TO THE
00:08:46.39\00:08:51.76
DOCTOR, DON'T LISTEN
TO ANYTHING THEY SAY.
00:08:51.76\00:08:54.10
YOU GIVE ME ALL
YOU GOT. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:08:54.10\00:09:06.27
>> SO TONIGHT FOR THE NEXT FEW
MINUTES, I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU
00:09:06.27\00:09:10.11
ALL I GOT. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:09:10.11\00:09:14.02
>> IT'S HARD TO DESCRIBE
THE WHIRLWIND OF EMOTIONS THE
00:09:16.55\00:09:28.36
DISCIPLES WENT THROUGH AFTER
THE DEATH OF JESUS ON CALVARY.
00:09:28.36\00:09:34.27
THE EMOTIONS THEY EXPERIENCED,
RANGED FROM DEPRESSION AND
00:09:34.27\00:09:44.45
DESPAIR TO
EXCITEMENT AND ECSTASY.
00:09:44.45\00:09:50.19
HIDING IN DREAD ONE MOMENT.
THE NEXT MOMENT WATCHING WITH
00:09:50.19\00:09:54.42
EXHILARATION AS JESUS WAS
BEING CAUGHT UP INTO THE CLOUDS,
00:09:54.42\00:10:00.00
SURROUNDED BY
THOUSANDS OF ANGELS.
00:10:00.00\00:10:05.77
IN THE BOOK OF ACTS THE BIBLE
TELLS US, THEY RETIRED TO AN
00:10:05.77\00:10:12.54
UPPER ROOM TO CHOOSE A
REPLACEMENT FOR JUDITH, AND TO
00:10:12.54\00:10:17.48
WAIT FOR THE
OUTPOURING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:10:17.48\00:10:22.88
THE SPIRIT JESUS
PROMISED HE WOULD SEND TO THEM.
00:10:22.88\00:10:27.76
WHILE IMMERSED IN PRAYER,
WORSHIP AND PRAISE, SUDDENLY
00:10:27.76\00:10:35.13
THEY HEARD A SOUND LIKE
THE BLOWING OF A VIOLENT WIND.
00:10:35.13\00:10:41.84
NOW, WE WHO LIVE IN FLORIDA, WE
WHO HAVE LIVED THROUGH
-HURRICANES, WE KNOW THAT SOUND.
00:10:41.84\00:10:49.64
IT'S A SOUND
LIKE NO OTHER SOUND.
00:10:49.64\00:10:53.28
IT IS A SOUND THAT FILLS
THE HEART WITH FEAR, AND TERROR.
00:10:53.28\00:10:59.42
I REMEMBER WATCHING A BROTHER
IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD BEING
00:10:59.42\00:11:04.86
INTERVIEWED ON TELEVISION
AFTER A RECENT HURRICANE.
00:11:04.86\00:11:08.23
THE REPORTER ASKED
HIM, WHAT WAS IT LIKE?
00:11:08.23\00:11:14.20
WERE YOU AFRAID? THAT
BROTHER SAID, WELL, WHEN
00:11:14.20\00:11:18.47
THE WIND STARTED GETTING BAD,
THEY TOLD US WE HAD TO GET OUT,
00:11:18.47\00:11:24.11
SO WE HAD TO
EVAORATE. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:11:24.11\00:11:32.22
>> HE WAS TRYING TO SAY
EVACUATE, SAME THING, EVAPORATE,
00:11:32.22\00:11:38.83
EVACUATE, JUST
GET OUT. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:11:38.83\00:11:45.63
>> BUT THAT SOUND,
IT'S A FRIGHTENING SOUND.
00:11:45.63\00:11:51.04
IN THE BOOK OF ACT, 2:1,
THE BIBLE SAYS WHEN THE DAY OF
00:11:51.04\00:11:57.38
PENTECOST WAS FULLY COME, THEY
WERE ALL IN ONE ACCORD -- WITH
00:11:57.38\00:12:03.72
ONE ACCORD, IN ONE PLACE,
AND SUDDENLY, THERE CAME A SOUND
00:12:03.72\00:12:09.56
FROM HEAVEN AS OF A RUSHING,
MIGHTY WIND, AND IT FILLED ALL
00:12:09.56\00:12:15.20
THE HOUSE WHERE
THEY WERE SITTING.
00:12:15.20\00:12:19.43
THE BIBLE TELL US, THAT THE
SOUND WAS AS OF A RUSHING MIGHTY
00:12:19.43\00:12:25.74
WIND. IT FILLED THE WHOLE HOUSE.
00:12:25.74\00:12:31.45
EVERY CORNER, EVERY CREVASSE.
EVERY ROOM, SUDDENLY ABOVE
00:12:31.45\00:12:37.52
EVERYONE'S HEAD, THERE WAS A
SIGN OF FIRE -- SIGNIFYING THE
00:12:37.52\00:12:46.49
ANOINTING POWER
OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:12:46.49\00:12:47.93
AND THE BIBLE SAYS IN VERSE
3, IT APPEARED UNDER THEM CLOVEN
00:12:47.93\00:12:56.27
TONGUES LIKE FIRE, AND IT SAT
UPON EACH OF THEM, AND THEY WERE
00:12:56.27\00:13:01.11
ALL FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT,
AND BEGAN TO SPEAK WITH -- WHAT?
00:13:01.11\00:13:06.35
OTHER TONGUES AS THE
SPIRIT GAVE THEM UTTERANCE.
00:13:06.35\00:13:10.49
>> AMEN. >>
BROTHERS AND SISTERS, AS THEY
00:13:10.49\00:13:14.09
WERE ALL FILLED WITH THE
HOLY GHOST, EVERYONE IN THE ROOM
00:13:14.09\00:13:20.90
BEGAN TO SPEAK FLUENTLY IN A
LANGUAGE THEY HAD NEVER STUDIED,
00:13:20.90\00:13:27.17
AND A LANGUAGE
THEY HAD NEVER LEARNED.
00:13:27.17\00:13:31.34
AND EACH MAN SPOKE AND SAID WHAT
THE HOLY SPIRIT WAS TELLING THEM
00:13:31.34\00:13:36.28
AND PROMPTING THEM TO SAY.
NOW, THERE IS A REASON THIS
00:13:36.28\00:13:42.35
OUTPOURING OF THE SPIRIT IS
KNOWN AS PENTECOST BECAUSE IT
00:13:42.35\00:13:50.49
HAPPENED AT THE FEAST OF WEEKS,
WHICH ALSO HAPPENED 50 DAYS
00:13:50.49\00:13:55.93
AFTER PASSOVER, AND
PENTECOST IS GREEK FOR 50 DAYS.
00:13:55.93\00:14:02.34
AND NOW THAT WORD, PENTECOST,
HAS BEEN MEMORIALIZED, AND MADE
00:14:02.34\00:14:09.58
SACRED, NOT BECAUSE OF WHEN
IT OCCURRED, BUT BECAUSE OF WHAT
00:14:09.58\00:14:14.12
HAPPENED ON THAT DAY.
THE BIBLE TELLS US THE PEOPLE
00:14:14.12\00:14:17.85
WHO WERE OUTSIDE THE UPPER ROOM
WERE HEARING SOUNDS -- IT WAS
00:14:17.85\00:14:24.89
NOT THE SOUND OF THE MIGHTY
RUSHING WIND THAT THEY REALLY
00:14:24.89\00:14:28.76
HEARD. IT WAS THE SOUND OF MANY
00:14:28.76\00:14:32.60
FRAGMENTS OF MANY LANGUAGES
BEING SPOKEN ALL AT ONCE.
00:14:32.60\00:14:37.84
IT WAS THE SOUND OF A
UNITED NATIONS UNDER ONE ROOF.
00:14:37.84\00:14:43.81
THE WORD QUICKLY SPREAD
THROUGHOUT THE CITY, SOMETHING
00:14:43.81\00:14:47.82
REMARKABLE AND SOMETHING UNUSUAL
IS GOING ON IN THAT HOUSE, AND
00:14:47.82\00:14:51.92
BEFORE LONG, A LARGE CROWD HAD
GATHERED OUTSIDE, AND THEN ONE
00:14:51.92\00:14:58.93
BY ONE, THE APOSTLES CAME OUT OF
THE HOUSE, AND BEGAN SPEAKING IN
00:14:58.93\00:15:03.97
LANGUAGES THAT
WERE NOT NATIVE TO THEM.
00:15:03.97\00:15:06.90
>> AMEN. >> ON
APOSTLE SPOKE AND SAID
00:15:06.90\00:15:18.75
HOLA. ANOTHER SAID SALUDE.
00:15:18.75\00:15:26.55
ANOTHER SAID [ SPEAKING FOREIGN
ANOTHER SAID, WHAT YOU BRO?
00:15:26.55\00:15:37.20
NOW YOU STAY? [ LAUGHTER ]
00:15:37.20\00:15:38.57
>> AND JUST LIKE YOU
WERE LISTENING TO ME AMAZED.
00:15:38.57\00:15:42.20
THE PEOPLE LISTENING WERE
ASTONISHED AND AMAZED, BECAUSE
00:15:42.20\00:15:48.04
EVERYONE PRESENT UNDERSTOOD
WHAT THE APOSTLES WERE SAYING IN
00:15:48.04\00:15:51.88
THEIR OWN LANGUAGE. WAIT
A MINUTE, SOMEBODY SHOUTED.
00:15:51.88\00:15:55.52
ALL OF THESE MEN
SPEAKING ARE GALETTIANS.
00:15:55.52\00:16:02.32
HOW DO WE ALL HEAR THEM SPEAK
IN OUR NATIVE LANGUAGES AND
00:16:02.32\00:16:08.66
DIALECTS? HOW WE
HEAR EVERY MAN IN OUR OWN
00:16:08.66\00:16:12.53
TONGUE WHERE IN WE ARE
BORN? WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?
00:16:12.53\00:16:19.11
WE HAVE PEOPLE FROM ALL REGIONS,
FROM EVERY PART OF ASIA.
00:16:19.11\00:16:26.51
WE HAVE PEOPLE FROM EGYPT,
LIBYA, SIGHRINE, ROME, CRETE,
00:16:26.51\00:16:37.69
ARBRABIA, AND EVERYONE IS ABLE
TO HEAR AND UNDERSTAND WITHOUT
00:16:37.69\00:16:40.20
NEED OF AN INTERPRETER.
THEY ARE PREACHING ABOUT THE
00:16:40.20\00:16:44.90
WONDERFUL WORKS OF GOD IN
OUR OWN LANGUAGE, AND IN OUR OWN
00:16:44.90\00:16:50.64
DIALECT. OTHERS
BEGAN TO SAY, THIS MUST
00:16:50.64\00:16:53.34
BE A TRICK, A BIG CIRCUS.
OH, WE KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON.
00:16:53.34\00:16:58.05
THESE MEN ARE
DRUNK. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:16:58.05\00:17:00.78
>> IT JUST SOUNDS LIKE WE
KNOW WHAT THEY ARE SAYING.
00:17:00.78\00:17:03.89
PETER STOOD UP AND SPOKE TO THE
CROWD, SAYING, MEN OF JUDAH, AND
00:17:03.89\00:17:07.86
ALL OF YOU WHO ARE VISITING
JERUSALEM, LISTEN TO ME, I WILL
00:17:07.86\00:17:11.53
TELL YOU WHAT IS GOING ON
HERE. WE HAVE NOT BEEN DRINKING.
00:17:11.53\00:17:16.03
WE ARE NOT DUNK. FOR
HEAVEN'S SAKE IT IS ONLY
00:17:16.03\00:17:20.84
9:00 IN THE
MORNING. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:17:20.84\00:17:23.97
>> WHAT YOU ARE
WITNESSING IS A MIRACLE OF GOD.
00:17:23.97\00:17:27.21
A MIRACLE PROPHESIZED BY
THE PROPHET JOEL, FOUND IN JOEL
00:17:27.21\00:17:33.08
2:28, AND IT SHALL
COME TO PASS AFTER, WHAT?
00:17:33.08\00:17:37.69
THAT I WILL POUR OUT MY SPIRIT
UPON ALL FLESH AND YOUR SONS AND
00:17:37.69\00:17:43.79
YOUR DAUGHTERS SHALL PROPHESIZE,
YOUR OLD MEN SHALL DREAM DREAMS.
00:17:43.79\00:17:50.57
YOUR YOUNG MEN SHALL SEE
VISIONS, AND ALSO UPON THOR IS
00:17:50.57\00:17:54.67
VANS AND HAND MAIDS IN THOSE
DAYS WILL I POOR OUT MY SPIRIT.
00:17:54.67\00:17:59.31
AND RIGHT THERE THAT DAY, PETER
PREACHED A SERMON THAT EVERY MAN
00:17:59.31\00:18:04.98
UNDERSTOOD IN HI OWN LANGUAGE.
PETER PREACHED WITH POWER.
00:18:04.98\00:18:08.28
HE PREACHED WITH THE ANOINTING
OF THE HOLY GHOST UPON HIM.
00:18:08.28\00:18:12.99
HE SAID WHOEVER CALLS ON THE
NAME OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED.
00:18:12.99\00:18:18.43
AND THIS LORD OF WHOM I SPEAK,
SAID PETER, HIS NAME IS JESUS.
00:18:18.43\00:18:24.67
JESUS OF NAZARETH, A MAN
APPROVED OF GOD BY YOU, OF
00:18:24.67\00:18:32.14
MIRACLES AND SIGNS AND WONDERS.
HIS NAME IS JESUS, THE ONE WHO
00:18:32.14\00:18:36.44
YOUR LEADERS TURNED OVER TO THE
ROMANS FOR KRURS FICTION, WHO
00:18:36.44\00:18:42.72
WASFY  CRUCIFIED
AND SLAIN FOR OUR SINS.
00:18:42.72\00:18:47.02
HIS NAME IS JESUS. AND
THROUGH HIM GOD BROKE THE
00:18:47.02\00:18:50.49
CHAINS OF SIN AND DEATH.
THROUGH HIM GOD DEFEATED THE
00:18:50.49\00:18:54.30
POWER OF DEAT AND THE
GRAVE, AND GOD RAISED HIM UP.
00:18:54.30\00:18:58.27
AMEN! WHEN THE
FATHER SENT AN ANGEL TO
00:18:58.27\00:19:02.40
STAND AT THE TOMB, AND SAY SON
OF GOD, THC FATHER CALL THEE,
00:19:02.40\00:19:12.25
AND NOW WE CAN REST IN THE HOPE
THAT THE SAME GOD WHO GUIDES THE
00:19:12.25\00:19:17.72
PLANETS WILL GUIDE US TO
OUR ETERNAL HOME IN THE HEAVENS!
00:19:17.72\00:19:22.39
>> AMEN! >> PETER
SAID MEN AND BRETHREN,
00:19:22.39\00:19:27.03
THE PROFIT DAVID TOLD US THE
MESSIAH WOULD COME AND DIE AND
00:19:27.03\00:19:31.63
BE RAISED FROM THE DEAD. HE
TOLD US HE WOULD NOT STAY IN
00:19:31.63\00:19:35.80
THE GRAVE, AND NEITHER WOULD
HIS BODY DECAY, AND JUST AS HE
00:19:35.80\00:19:41.88
PROPHESIZED, GOD RAISED
UP JESUS ON THE THIRD DAY.
00:19:41.88\00:19:44.35
AND IF YOU NEED WITNESSES, SAID
PETER, WE ALL HERE CAN TESTIFY.
00:19:44.35\00:19:49.82
BECAUSE WE HAVE
SEEN HIM IN THE FLESH.
00:19:49.82\00:19:52.52
>> AMEN! >> AND
DON'T GO LOOKING FOR HIM.
00:19:52.52\00:19:56.76
HE HAS DESCENDED UP TO HEAVEN,
AND NOW HE SITS AT THE RIGHT
00:19:56.76\00:20:01.86
HAND OF THE FATHER, AND HE HAS
CALLED US TO PREACH THIS GOSPEL
00:20:01.86\00:20:06.20
OF GOOD NEWS. BROTHERS
AND SISTERS, I WANT YOU
00:20:06.20\00:20:09.40
TO KNOW THE BIBLE SAYS WHEN
THE PEOPLE HEARD THIS, THEY WERE
00:20:09.40\00:20:14.31
PRICKED IN THEIR HEART, AND SAID
UNTO PETER AND UNTO THE REST OF
00:20:14.31\00:20:19.75
THE APOSTLES,
WHAT SHALL WE DO NOW?
00:20:19.75\00:20:24.45
PETER SAID UNTO THEM, REPENT,
AND BE BAPTIZED, EVERY LAST ONE
00:20:24.45\00:20:30.73
OF YOU IN THE NAME OF JESUS
CHRIST FOR THE REMISSION OF YOUR
00:20:30.73\00:20:35.70
SINS FORSAKE YOUR SINS, TURN
YOUR LIVES OVER TO GOD, AND BE
00:20:35.70\00:20:40.77
BAPTIZED IN THE NAME
OF THE LORD, JESUS CHRIST.
00:20:40.77\00:20:46.01
AND THEN PETER
GAVE HIS GOSPEL APPEAL.
00:20:46.01\00:20:51.61
NOW I GOT TO TELL YOU IT WAS
NOT A SOFT, PLEADING APPEAL WITH
00:20:51.61\00:20:56.15
SOMEBODY SINGING JUST AS
I AM.-[ LAUGHTER ] >> NO.
00:20:56.15\00:21:00.69
>> PETER'S APPEAL WAS
DIRECT AND TO THE POINT.
00:21:00.69\00:21:04.83
HE SAID TO THE
CROWD, SAVE YOURSELVES!
00:21:04.83\00:21:12.80
SAVE YOURSELVES! THE
BIBLE SAYS ON THAT DAY,
00:21:12.80\00:21:16.44
ABOUT 3,000 WERE BAPTIZED.
3,000 WERE ADDED TO THE CHURCH
00:21:16.44\00:21:24.35
IN ONE DAY. NOW
BROTHERS AND SISTERS, OF ALL
00:21:24.35\00:21:31.15
THE SPIRITUAL GIFTS, THE GIFT
OF THE ABILITY TO SPEAK IN A
00:21:31.15\00:21:36.62
DIFFERENT LANGUAGE UNDER THE
ANOINTING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, IS
00:21:36.62\00:21:42.76
DEFINITELY ONE OF THE MOST
UNUSUAL, MISUNDERSTOOD, AND
00:21:42.76\00:21:49.44
CONTROVERSIAL
GIFTS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:21:49.44\00:21:52.54
MAYBE YOU HAVE BEEN TO A CHURCH
WHERE SUDDENLY THERE WAS AN
00:21:52.54\00:21:59.55
OUTBREAK OF MONOSALAIC PHRASES,
AND IT WAS SOMETHING YOU
00:21:59.55\00:22:10.39
COULDN'T UNDERSTAND.
SOMETIMES SOMEONE WOULD
00:22:10.39\00:22:13.36
INTERPRET, AND SOMETIMES
NOT. THIS PRACTICE HAS BECOME
00:22:13.36\00:22:18.60
WIDESPREAD IN THE
CHURCH OF KORRENTH.
00:22:18.60\00:22:23.97
PAUL ADDRESSED
THIS SITUATION HEAD ON.
00:22:23.97\00:22:29.64
AND PAUL WAS
CLEAR. HE WAS STRONG.
00:22:29.64\00:22:32.65
HE WAS DIRECT. HE
DID NOT MINCE HIS WORDS.
00:22:32.65\00:22:37.62
AND YOU CAN TURN WITH ME
IN YOUR BIBLES TO FIRST C
00:22:37.62\00:22:49.30
CORE -- CORINTHIANS 14. HE
COUNTERED THE ABUSES IN THIS
00:22:49.30\00:22:56.87
CHURCH. AND WITH
EACH ARGUMENT PAUL
00:22:56.87\00:22:59.41
PRESENTS, YOU GET A CLEARER
PICTURE OF THE ABUSES THE GIFT
00:22:59.41\00:23:03.91
PAUL FELT
COMPELLED TO -- TO ADDRESS.
00:23:03.91\00:23:06.35
THE ABUSES OF THE GIFT THAT
PAUL FELT COMPELLED TO ADDRESS.
00:23:06.35\00:23:11.09
NOW LET ME EXPLAIN ONE
THING THAT IS CRITICAL TO YOU
00:23:11.09\00:23:16.26
UNDERSTANDING THIS
SCRIPTURE, THIS CHAPTER.
00:23:16.26\00:23:18.96
MANY OF THE PEOPLE COMING
INTO THE CHURCH WERE COMING FROM
00:23:18.96\00:23:27.47
PAGAN RELIGIONS. IT'S
VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU
00:23:27.47\00:23:30.27
REMEMBER THAT. AND
IN THE PAGAN WORSHIP
00:23:30.27\00:23:34.44
SERVICES, THERE WAS A LOT
OF COMMOTION, DISORDER, AND
00:23:34.44\00:23:42.28
CONFUSION. PEOPLE
WERE SHOUTING OUT, AND
00:23:42.28\00:23:45.59
SHOUTING BACK AT THE
ONES TEACHING AND SPEAKING.
00:23:45.59\00:23:50.16
YOU ARE PROBABLY SAYING THAT'S
WHAT GOES ON AT MY CHURCH.
00:23:50.16\00:23:55.00
[ LAUGHTER ] >> THE
NEW MEMBERS OF THE CHURCH
00:23:55.00\00:23:58.53
IN KORRENTH, WERE BRINGING
THESE PRACTICES INTO THE CHURCH.
00:23:58.53\00:24:03.47
SO WHILE THE TEACHER OR THE
PREACHER WAS PROCLAIMING THE
00:24:03.47\00:24:06.94
GOOD NEWS OF THE GOSPEL, THERE
WERE PEOPLE WHO FROM THE BACK OF
00:24:06.94\00:24:12.88
THE CHURCH WERE SHOUTING OUT
AND-SHOUTING BACK AT THE
PREACHER. IN CORENTH, HOWEVER,
00:24:12.88\00:24:23.53
THEY WERE SHOUTING OUT PHRASES,
THEY WERE SPEAKING OUT A
00:24:23.53\00:24:29.20
EXPERIENCE OF ECSTASY, AND
SHOUTING OUT WORDS AND
UTTERANCES, NOBODY COULD
00:24:29.20\00:24:34.24
UNDERSTAND. AND SOMETHING ELSE.
00:24:34.24\00:24:36.54
SOMETHING ELSE WAS DIFFERENT.
IT APPEARED AS THOUGH WHEN THEY
00:24:36.54\00:24:43.41
WERE IN THIS EXPERIENCE IN
AN INVOLUNTARY FASHION AS THESE
00:24:43.41\00:24:50.99
UNINTELLIGIBLE WORDS AND PHRASES
WERE BEING SPOKEN, IT APPEARED
00:24:50.99\00:24:56.83
AS THOUGH THOSE PEOPLE'S MINDS
AND MOUTHS HAD BEEN TAKEN OVER,
00:24:56.83\00:25:01.16
AND THEY WERE NO LONGER MASTERS
OF THEIR OWN CONSCIOUS, AND
00:25:01.16\00:25:08.07
MENTAL FACULTIES.
THAT'S WHAT WAS GOING ON IN THE
00:25:08.07\00:25:12.54
CHURCH AT CORENTH.
IT WAS A PHENOMENON LIKE
00:25:12.54\00:25:17.81
PENTECOST, BUT IT WAS A
COUNTERFEIT OF PENTECOST.
00:25:17.81\00:25:22.48
DID YOU HEAR WHAT I
SAID? IT WAS A PHENOMENON LIK
00:25:22.48\00:25:28.32
PENTECOST, BUT IT WAS A
COUNTERFEIT OF PENTECOST.
00:25:28.32\00:25:34.93
AND, YET, LIKE IT IS TODAY,
DON'T LET ANYBODY FOOL YOU, IT
00:25:34.93\00:25:38.93
WAS ACCOMPANIED BY AN OUTPOURING
OF EMOTION AND FEELING AND
00:25:38.93\00:25:44.67
EXCITEMENT. NOW THE
MAIN PROBLEM WAS NO ONE
00:25:44.67\00:25:49.01
HAD ANY IDEA WHAT THESE PEOPLE
WHO WERE SHOUTING OUT WERE
00:25:49.01\00:25:52.68
SAYING. THEY WERE
CLAIMING THE LA GIJ
00:25:52.68\00:26:00.62
MASSEY OF THE GIFT OF TONGUES,
BUT THERE WAS NO ORDER, THERE
00:26:00.62\00:26:03.43
WERE NO RULES, AND NO ONE IN THE
CHURCH WAS GETTING ANYTHING FROM
00:26:03.43\00:26:06.96
ALL OF THIS CONFUSION, AND
EVEN TODAY THERE IS A LOT OF
00:26:06.96\00:26:12.60
CONFUSION ABOUT
THE GIFT OF TONGUES.
00:26:12.60\00:26:15.34
NOW, THE CONFUSION WE SEE TODAY
ALL STARTS WITH ONE CLARIFYING
00:26:15.34\00:26:29.15
MISINTERPRETED WORD FOUND IN THE
KING JAMES VERSION OF THE BIBLE.
00:26:29.15\00:26:35.29
WATCH WHAT I'M
ABOUT TO SHARE WITH YOU.
00:26:35.29\00:26:39.29
LOOK AT IT, FIRST CORINTHIANS
14:2, THE BIBLE THERE SAYS, FOR
00:26:39.29\00:26:48.57
HE THAT SPEAKTH IN AN UNKNOWN
TONGUE, SPEAKTH NOT UNTO MEN,
00:26:48.57\00:26:54.51
BUT UNTO GOD. NOW I
WANT THEM TO HOLD THAT
00:26:54.51\00:26:57.85
SLIDE UP. I WANT
YOU TO LOOK AGAIN, AND
00:26:57.85\00:27:00.48
YOU WILL SEE IT IN
YOUR OWN BIBLES AS WELL.
00:27:00.48\00:27:05.49
DO YOU NOTICE THE WORD
UNKNOWN IS IN BRACKETS.
00:27:05.49\00:27:13.09
DO YOU SEE
THAT? DO YOU KNOW WHY?
00:27:13.09\00:27:17.17
THAT'S BECAUSE THE WORD
UNKNOWN IS NOT IN THE ORIGINAL
00:27:17.17\00:27:22.20
TRANSCRIPT FROM WHICH
THE BIBLE WAS TRANSLATED.
00:27:22.20\00:27:33.38
THAT WORD UNKNOWN WAS
INSERTED TO CLARIFY, AND HELP US
00:27:33.38\00:27:37.45
UNDERSTAND THAT THEY SPOKE IN
A LANGUAGE THAT WAS NOT KNOWN BY
00:27:37.45\00:27:42.76
THOSE WHO WERE HEARING IT.
IN OTHER WORDS THE LANGUAGE WAS
00:27:42.76\00:27:52.23
ORIGINALLY UNKNOWN TO
THE ONE WHO WAS SPEAKING IT.
00:27:52.23\00:27:54.77
IF ALL OF A SUDDEN, I STARTED
SPEAKING CHINESE, YOU CAN BE
00:27:54.77\00:28:00.88
SURE THAT I AM
SPEAKING IN AN UNKNOWN TONGUE.
00:28:00.88\00:28:07.55
[ LAUGHTER ] >>
BECAUSE IT IS A TONGUE, A
00:28:07.55\00:28:17.33
LANGUAGE, THAT
IS NOT KNOWN TO ME.
00:28:17.33\00:28:21.10
BUT WHAT HAS HAPPENED IS,
RELIGIOUS TEACHERS AND PREACHERS
00:28:21.10\00:28:27.10
HAVE TAKEN THAT WORD, UNKNOWN,
AND INVESTED IT WITH A WHOLE
00:28:27.10\00:28:33.91
DIFFERENT MEANING
THAN GOD INTENDED.
00:28:33.91\00:28:40.18
WOW. FIRST, THEY MADE THAT WORD
00:28:40.18\00:28:42.15
UNKNOWN TO MEAN A LANGUAGE OR A
TONGUE UNKNOWN TO THOSE WHO WERE
00:28:42.15\00:28:49.32
HEARING IT AND THEY HAVE TURNED
UNKNOWN TONGUE AND THEY NOW MAKE
00:28:49.32\00:28:54.83
IT MEAN SO MANY DIFFERENT
THINGS THAT GOD DIDN'T INTEND.
00:28:54.83\00:28:58.70
THEY MAKE IT MEAN
A PRIVATE LANGUAGE.
00:28:58.70\00:29:01.27
HAVE YOU HEARD THAT
ONE? A PRIVATE LANGUAGE.
00:29:01.27\00:29:04.21
OR -- OR A SECRET TONGUE.
WHEN ALL ALONG, UNKNOWN WAS
00:29:04.21\00:29:09.61
SIMPLY MEANT TO MEAN, A LANGUAGE
THAT WAS UNKNOWN TO THE SPEAKER.
00:29:09.61\00:29:18.29
THAT WORD WAS THERE TO --
PUT THERE TO HELP CLARIFY.
00:29:18.29\00:29:22.79
THE TRUTH IS, MANY THROUGHOUT
CHRISTIAN HISTORY, BEGAN TO
00:29:22.79\00:29:27.50
DEFINE UNKNOWN TO MEAN SOMETHING
GOD NEVER INTENDED IT TO MEAN.
00:29:27.50\00:29:32.23
THEY HAVE EVN BUILT ENTIRE
CHURCHES AND DENOMINATIONAL
00:29:32.23\00:29:38.91
MOVEMENTS AROUND
THAT ONE WORD UNKNOWN.
00:29:38.91\00:29:42.31
YOU HAVE PEOPLE TODAY WH TEACH
THAT UNKNOWN MEANS UNKNOWN TO
00:29:42.31\00:29:49.78
EVERYBODY, EXCEPT THEM AND GOD.
YOU HAVE PEOPLE TODAY WHO TEACH
00:29:49.78\00:29:56.26
THAT THIS IS MY PRIVATE PERSONAL
PRAYER LANGUAGE IN WHICH I TALK
00:29:56.26\00:30:00.76
TO GOD AND GOD TALKS TO
ME. CAN I TELL YOU SOMETHING.
00:30:00.76\00:30:06.33
YOU DON'T NEED A SPECIAL PRAYER
LANGUAGE TO TALK TO GOD, OR HEAR
00:30:06.33\00:30:11.77
GOD TALK TO YOU.
MATTER OF FACT, YOU DON'T EVEN
00:30:11.77\00:30:15.74
NEED A VERBAL
UTTERANCE TO TALK TO GOD.
00:30:15.74\00:30:20.58
WHEN I TALK TO GOD IN MY MIND,
NOW THAT'S AN UNKNOWN TONGUE.
00:30:20.58\00:30:26.15
[ LAUGHTER ] >>
BEAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT
00:30:26.15\00:30:33.90
I'M SAYING OR PRAYING
WHEN I TALK TO GOD IN MY MIND.
00:30:33.90\00:30:38.40
IT IS UNKNOWN TO EVERYONE
WHEN I TALK TO GOD IN MY MIND.
00:30:38.40\00:30:43.37
IT IS EVEN UNKNOWN --
PRAISE THE LORD -- TO THE DEVIL.
00:30:43.37\00:30:47.68
>> AMEN! >> AND TO
HIS DEMONS AND ANGELS.
00:30:47.68\00:30:51.78
NOW THAT'S AN UNKNOWN TONGUE.
WHEN I TALK TO GOD IN MY MIND,
00:30:51.78\00:30:56.35
THE ONLY PERSON IT IS
NOT UNKNOWN TO IS JESUS.
00:30:56.35\00:31:02.86
THE BIBLE ALSO SAYS SOMETIMES WE
DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT WE SHOULD
00:31:02.86\00:31:09.10
PRAY, OR HOW WE SHOULD PRAY, BUT
IN THOSE TIMES, THE BIBLE SAYS
00:31:09.10\00:31:13.74
THE SPIRIT OF GOD
TRANSLATES FOR US.
00:31:13.74\00:31:16.20
>> AMEN. >> DID YOU GET THAT?
00:31:16.20\00:31:20.64
MAKE AN INTERCESSION FOR US
WITH GROANINGS, WHICH CANNOT BE
00:31:20.64\00:31:25.01
UTTERS OR UNDERSTOOD BY US.
NOW I GOT TO CONFESS TO YOU, AND
00:31:25.01\00:31:31.85
I ADMIT SOMETIMES WHEN I TALK TO
GOD, I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I'M
00:31:31.85\00:31:39.56
SAYING, BUT HE DOES.
SOMETIMES WHEN I AM CRYING OUT
00:31:39.56\00:31:44.13
TO GOD, I'M TALKING TO GOD
WITH MOANING, AND WHALING, AND
00:31:44.13\00:31:53.44
WHIMPERING. YES, I
WHIMPER BEFORE MY GOD.
00:31:53.44\00:31:57.21
SOMETIMES I NEED HIM TO SHOW
UP IN MY LIFE, AND I CAN'T EVEN
00:31:57.21\00:32:01.02
FIND THE WORDS. ALL I
CAN SAY -- HELP ME LORD!
00:32:01.02\00:32:06.35
>> AMEN. >> AMEN.
00:32:06.35\00:32:08.02
>> I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I'M
SAYING, BUT I KNOW GOD KNOWS.
00:32:08.02\00:32:13.09
MATTER OF FACT, I BELIEVE THAT
EVERY MOTHER IN HERE, HAS
PRAYED-FOR THEIR CHILD IN A
00:32:13.09\00:32:20.84
LANGUAGE NONE OF US CAN
UNDERSTAND OR INTERPRET.
00:32:20.84\00:32:23.77
>> MAIN. >> I
BELIEVE EVERY MOTHER IN
00:32:23.77\00:32:27.01
HERE HAS CRIED OUT TO THE
LORD FOR THEIR CHILDREN, GOD!
00:32:27.01\00:32:34.48
SAVE MY CHILD! >> AMEN!
00:32:34.48\00:32:38.02
>> AMEN. >>
SPEAKING WORDS THAT YOU CAN'T
00:32:38.02\00:32:42.99
EVEN TRANSLATE. YOU
HAVE PEOPLE HERE TODAY WHO
00:32:42.99\00:32:47.46
TEACH, PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD, IN
THE CHRISTIAN WORLD, WHO TEACH
00:32:47.46\00:32:54.30
THAT UNKNOWN MEANS LANGUAGE
THAT ONLY THE ANGELS SPEAK.
00:32:54.30\00:33:00.48
HAVE YOU HEARD THAT ONE? A
LANGUAGE THAT ONLY THE ANGELS
00:33:00.48\00:33:05.55
CAN UNDERSTAND, AND
THAT'S WHY IT'S CALLED UNKNOWN.
00:33:05.55\00:33:09.52
I WANT -- I WANT YOU TO KNOW,
IF GOD CAN EVEN UNDERSTAND THE
00:33:09.52\00:33:13.99
THOUGHTS I THINK, WHY DO I NEED
AN ANGEL LANGUAGE TO SPEAK TO
00:33:13.99\00:33:21.16
HIM WHEN HE CAN EVEN
UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M THINKING?
00:33:21.16\00:33:24.23
WHY DO I NEED AN ANGEL
LANGUAGE TO SPEAK IN CHURCH?
00:33:24.23\00:33:30.81
BROTHERS AND SISTERS, WHATEVER
MEN TODAY MAKE THAT WORD UNKNOWN
00:33:30.81\00:33:35.48
TO MEAN, WE MUST NEVER FORGET IT
WAS NEVER IN THE ORIGINAL TEXT.
00:33:35.48\00:33:42.15
MATTER OF FACT, IN THE
BOOK OF ACTS WHEN IT DESCRIBES
00:33:42.15\00:33:47.29
PENTECOST, IT DOESN'T SAY
UNKNOWN TONGUE, AND THAT WORD
00:33:47.29\00:33:50.99
UNKNOWN WAS NOT EVEN
INSERTED BY THE APOSTLE PAUL.
00:33:50.99\00:33:55.30
IT WAS NOT IN
HIS ORIGINAL LETTER.
00:33:55.30\00:33:57.83
DID YOU GET THAT? WHEN
PAUL WROTE THAT, HE DIDN'T
00:33:57.83\00:34:01.87
WRITE UNKNOWN TONGUE. IT
WAS INSERTED BY A TRANSLATOR
00:34:01.87\00:34:06.31
TO CLARIFY THAT UNKNOWN
MEANT UNKNOWN TO THE ONE WHO WAS
00:34:06.31\00:34:12.15
SPEAKING IT, AND NOT UNKNOWN
TO THE ONES WHO WERE HEARING IT.
00:34:12.15\00:34:17.59
NOW THE VERY WORD THAT WAS MEANT
TO CLARIFY THE THOUGHT HAS BEEN
00:34:17.59\00:34:22.16
USED TO CONFUSE IT.
NOW, ANOTHER THING, WHEN THE
00:34:22.16\00:34:27.86
BIBLE SAYS IN 1 CORINTHIANS
14:2, FOR HE THAT SPEAKTH IN AN
00:34:27.86\00:34:36.57
UNKNOWN TONGUE, THE WORD TONGUE
HERE IS THE WORD USED TO SPEAK
00:34:36.57\00:34:41.58
ABOUT KNOWN LANGUAGES.
IT IS NOT USED TO DESCRIBE
00:34:41.58\00:34:45.75
SECRET LANGUAGES UNKNOWN TO MEN.
SO THE BEST TRANSLATION IS, HE
00:34:45.75\00:34:50.49
THAT SPEAKTH IN
AN UNKNOWN LANGUAGE.
00:34:50.49\00:34:55.89
>> AMEN. >> NOW FOR
THE NEXT FEW MOMENTS,
00:34:55.89\00:34:59.23
LET'S LOOK AT A FEW OF THE
ABUSES OF THE SPIRITUAL GIFT
00:34:59.23\00:35:04.00
PAUL WAS ADDRESSING.
IN 1 CORINTHIANS 14:4.
00:35:04.00\00:35:11.41
PAUL SAY HE THAT SPEAKTH IN AN
UNKNOWN TONGUE EDIFIES HIMSELF,
00:35:11.41\00:35:17.81
BUT HE THAT
PROSIZES EDIFIES THE CHURCH.
00:35:17.81\00:35:22.25
PAUL IS SAYING HERE, IF YOU
SPEAK IN CHURCH IN A LANGUAGE NO
00:35:22.25\00:35:26.09
ONE UNDERSTANDS, YOU ARE
TALKING TO NO ONE BUT YOURSELF.
00:35:26.09\00:35:30.89
IF YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE WHO
BENEFITS FROM A GIFT OF THE HOLY
00:35:30.89\00:35:36.10
SPIRIT, WHAT GOOD IS THAT?
EVEN IF YOU ARE SPEAKING THE
00:35:36.10\00:35:41.60
MOST PROFOUND SPIRITUAL
MYSTERIES, WHAT GOOD IS IT, IF
00:35:41.60\00:35:45.77
YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE WHO
UNDERSTANDS IT?-pONLY YOU AND
00:35:45.77\00:35:52.05
GOD. BROTHERS AND SISTERS CAN
YOU IMAGINE WHAT CONFUSION THERE
00:35:52.05\00:35:54.68
WOULD BE, AND THERE WOULD
HAVE BEEN AT PENTECOST IF THE
00:35:54.68\00:35:58.82
DISCIPLES WERE SPEAKING TO THE
CROWD IN LANGUAGES NO ONE COULD
00:35:58.82\00:36:03.86
UNDERSTAND? THAT
WOULD NOT BE PENTECOST.
00:36:03.86\00:36:08.36
THAT WOULD BE PLENTY
LOST. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A LOST
00:36:08.36\00:36:13.57
OPPORTUNITY TO
SPREAD THE GOSPEL.
00:36:13.57\00:36:16.50
IF THE DISCIPLES WERE SPEAKING
TO THE CROWD IN LANGUAGES NO ONE
00:36:16.50\00:36:21.41
COULD UNDERSTAND, THE PEOPLE
GOD WERE TRYING TO REACH AND
00:36:21.41\00:36:25.48
ENCOURAGE, THEY WOULD NOT
BE UPLIFTED, THEY WOULD NOT BE
00:36:25.48\00:36:29.35
EDIFIED, IF THEY COULDN'T
UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS BEING
00:36:29.35\00:36:31.99
SPOKEN. NOW WE'RE
GOING TO TOUCH ON A
00:36:31.99\00:36:34.19
FEW OF THESE
ABUSES. 1 CORINTHIANS 14:1.
00:36:34.19\00:36:41.06
FOLLOW AFTER CHARITY AND DESIRE
SPIRITUAL GIFTS, BUT RATHER THAT
00:36:41.06\00:36:50.24
YE MAY PROPHESIZE. PAUL
IS SAYING IF YOU COVET THE
00:36:50.24\00:36:53.91
GIFT OF THE SPIRIT, PRAY FOR THE
GIFT TO PRECISEPROSIGH, BUT FOR
00:36:53.91\00:37:03.59
THE GIFT TO SPEAK IN TONGUES.
THE GIFT OF TRANSLATION IS THE
00:37:03.59\00:37:07.76
GIFT OF SPEAKING IN TONGUES, BUT
IT IS NOT A GIFT TO PROCLAIM THE
00:37:07.76\00:37:13.43
GOSPEL WITH
CLARITY AND UNDERSTANDING.
00:37:13.43\00:37:15.73
THE GIFT TO PROPHESIZE, IS GIFT
GOD GIVES SO YOU CAN EDIFY, AND
00:37:15.73\00:37:26.57
CONSULT, AND COMFORT OTHERS.
IN 14:5, PAUL SAYS I WOULD
00:37:26.57\00:37:32.35
RATHER THAT YOUALL SPEAK
WITH TONGUES, BUT RATHER THAT YE
00:37:32.35\00:37:38.29
PROFA SIGHED, FOR A GREATER
IS HE THAN PROFA SIGHTH THEN HE
00:37:38.29\00:37:46.29
THAT SPEAKTH WITH TONGUE, EXCEPT
THAT THE CHURCH MAY RECEIVE
00:37:46.29\00:37:51.77
EDIFYING. PAUL WAS
SAYING I WISH YOU ALL
00:37:51.77\00:37:54.04
HAD THE GIFT OF TONGUES AND
LANGUAGES, BUT I WOULD PREFER IT
00:37:54.04\00:37:58.64
IF YOU ALL HAD THE
GIFT TO PROPHESIZE.
00:37:58.64\00:38:02.04
I WOULD RATHER THAT YOU PRAY FOR
AND LONG FOR THE GIFT TO TEACH
00:38:02.04\00:38:09.75
WITH CLARITY, FOR GREATER IS HE
THAT PROPHESIZETH THAN HE THAT
00:38:09.75\00:38:17.19
SPEAKTH WITH TONGUES. IN
THAT VERSUS, PAUL WAS ALSO
00:38:17.19\00:38:21.90
SAYING SPEAKING TO THE CHURCH IN
A DIFFERENT LANGUAGE IS NO HELP
00:38:21.90\00:38:25.57
TO THE CHURCH UNLESS SOMEONE
TRANSLATES WHAT THE OTHER PERSON
00:38:25.57\00:38:29.80
IS SAYING. LOOK
VERSE 18, PAUL SAID I THANK
00:38:29.80\00:38:33.81
MY GOD, I SPEAK WITH
TONGUES MORE THAN YOU ALL.
00:38:33.81\00:38:40.12
AND THEN VERSE 19, HE SAYS I
SPEAK MORE LANGUAGES THAN ANY OF
00:38:40.12\00:38:46.15
YOU. BUT WHEN I
COME TO CHURCH TO
00:38:46.15\00:38:48.49
WORSHIP OR STAND UP TO PREACH,
I WOULD RATHER SPEAK FIVE WORDS
00:38:48.49\00:38:55.70
THE CHURCH CAN UNDERSTAND THAN
10,000 IN A LANGUAGE NO ONE CAN
00:38:55.70\00:39:02.07
UNDERSTAND. >> AMEN!
00:39:02.07\00:39:03.04
>> OH, YES.
THAT'S WHAT PAUL WROTE.
00:39:03.04\00:39:06.27
VERSUS 19, YET IN THE CHURCH, I
HAD RATHER SPEAK FIVE WODS WITH
00:39:06.27\00:39:11.31
MY UNDERSTANDING, THAT BY MY
VOICE, I MIGHT TEACH OTHERS ALSO
00:39:11.31\00:39:17.82
THAN 10,000 WORDS IN -- AND
YOU SEE IT IN BRACKETS AGAIN.
00:39:17.82\00:39:23.02
DO YOU SEE IT IN BRACKETS
AGAIN? 10,000 WORDS AND -- WHAT?
00:39:23.02\00:39:28.66
UNKNOWN. SEE THAT WORD.
00:39:28.66\00:39:29.90
IT'S IN BRACKETS FOR A REASON.
IT WAS NOT IN THE ORIGINAL
00:39:29.90\00:39:38.67
LANGUAGE. THAT'S
BECAUSE PAUL IS SAYING TO
00:39:38.67\00:39:40.34
THE PEOPLE IN THE CHURCH,
TONGUES ARE A SIGN FROM GOD, NOT
00:39:40.34\00:39:45.31
FOR THE CHURCH, BUT TO CONVINCE
THOSE WHO DON'T BELIEVE ABOUT
00:39:45.31\00:39:48.85
THE POWER OF GOD. LOOK AT IT.
00:39:48.85\00:39:52.49
1 CORINTHIANS 14:22, WHERE FOR
TONGUES ARE FOR A SIGN NOT TO
00:39:52.49\00:40:00.00
THEM THAT BELEVE, BUT TO
THEM THAT BELIEVE NOT, BUT
00:40:00.00\00:40:05.37
PROPHESIZING IS
FOR THEM WHICH BELIEVE.
00:40:05.37\00:40:06.90
THIS GIFT WAS GIVEN, BROTHERS
AND SISTERS, TO REACH UNBE
00:40:06.90\00:40:12.84
UNBELIEVERS WITH THE GOSPEL.
IT WAS NOT FOR YOU IN THE
00:40:12.84\00:40:21.72
CHURCH, WHO ALREADY BELIEVE.
THAT'S WHAT PAUL IS SAYING.
00:40:21.72\00:40:25.22
IF ALL OF US CAME TO CHURCH, AND
ALL BEGAN SPEAKING IN TONGUES,
00:40:25.22\00:40:29.42
IT WOULD BE MASS CONFUSION.
THE ONLY THING THE UNBELIEVERS
00:40:29.42\00:40:32.83
WILL SAY, PAUL SAYS, THE
ONLY THING THEY'LL SAY IS THESE
00:40:32.83\00:40:36.83
PEOPLE ARE CRAZY. IF
EVERY ONE OF US CLAIMS TO
00:40:36.83\00:40:39.77
HAVE THE GIFT OF TONGUES, AND
WE INSIST ON BEING THE SPEAKER,
00:40:39.77\00:40:46.21
UNBELIEVERS WILL
BELIEVE WE HAVE GONE MAD.
00:40:46.21\00:40:49.21
LOOK AT IT 1 CORINTHIANS 14:23,
IF THEREFORE THE WHOLE CHURCH
00:40:49.21\00:40:54.95
COME TOGETHER INTO ONE PLACE AND
ALL SPEAK WITH TONGUES AND THERE
00:40:54.95\00:40:59.05
COME IN THOSE THAT ARE UNLEARNED
OR UNBELIEVERS, WILL THEY NOT
00:40:59.05\00:41:03.22
SAY THAT YE ARE MAD?
BROTHERS AND SISTERS, EVERY GIFT
00:41:03.22\00:41:13.80
FROM GOD HAS A PURPOSE.
SAY THAT AGAIN, EVERY GIFT FROM
00:41:13.80\00:41:18.94
GOD HAS A PURPOSE. AND
IF ANY MAN SPEAK, AND YOU
00:41:18.94\00:41:23.01
SEE IT IN BRACKETS
AGAIN, SOMEBODY SAID I
00:41:23.01\00:41:26.92
NEVER -- SOMEBODY
SAID I NEVER NOTICED THAT.
00:41:26.92\00:41:29.68
COME ON, SAY I
NEVER NOTICED THAT.
00:41:29.68\00:41:32.69
IF ANY MAN SPEAK IN AN UNKNOWN
TONGUE LET IT BE BY THREE AND BY
00:41:32.69\00:41:39.16
THE MOST BY FOUR, BUT IF THERE
BE NO INTERPRETER, LET HIM KEEP
00:41:39.16\00:41:45.00
SILENCE IN THE CHURCH. LET
HIM SPEAK TO HIMSELF AND TO
00:41:45.00\00:41:49.14
GOD. IF THERE IS
NO ONE TO INTERPRET,
00:41:49.14\00:41:51.77
SHUT UP. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:41:51.77\00:41:56.78
>> ACTUALLY IT SAYS
KEEP SILENT. NICE WAY, HUH?
00:41:56.78\00:42:01.92
LET HIM SPEAK TO
HIMSELF, AND TO GOD.
00:42:01.92\00:42:06.12
LOOK AT VERSE 33. WHY?
00:42:06.12\00:42:08.36
BECAUSE GOD IS NOT THE AUTHOR OF
CONFUSION, BUT OF PEACE, AS IN
00:42:08.36\00:42:16.93
ALL CHURCHES OF THE SAINTS, AND
LOOK AT VERSE 34, LET YOUR WOMEN
00:42:16.93\00:42:22.94
KEEP SILENCE IN THE CHURCHES,
FOR IT IS NOT PERMITS UNTO THEM
00:42:22.94\00:42:27.24
TO SPEAK, BUT THEY ARE COMMANDED
TO BE UNDER OBEDIENCE AS ALSO
00:42:27.24\00:42:33.95
SAY THE LORD. SO
SINCE WE ARE HERE, I'M GOING
00:42:33.95\00:42:37.29
TO UNPACK THIS
ONE TOO. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:42:37.29\00:42:40.42
>> ARE YOU READY? HERE
IS ANOTHER SCRIPTURE OFTEN
00:42:40.42\00:42:45.23
TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT.
REMEMBER, I SAID YOU HAVE TO
00:42:45.23\00:42:49.10
REMEMBER THAT THEY WERE
COMING FROM PAGAN RELIGIONS.
00:42:49.10\00:42:53.20
PAUL WAS NOT SAYING WOMEN SHOULD
NEVER SPEAK IN THE CHURCH.
00:42:53.20\00:42:59.67
I THOUGHT THE WOMEN WOULD
BE SHOUTING AMEN ON THAT ONE.
00:42:59.67\00:43:02.24
[ LAUGHTER ] >>
YOU GOT TO LOOK AT THE
00:43:02.24\00:43:08.25
CONTEXT. PAUL WAS
SAYING CHECK THIS OUT,
00:43:08.25\00:43:12.42
NOW. WOMEN
ATTENDING CHURCHES THAT
00:43:12.42\00:43:14.46
HAVE THAT KIND OF CONFUSION
DON'T DO LIKE THE WOMEN IN THE
00:43:14.46\00:43:21.06
PAGAN TEMPLES DO. WHEN
THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND, THEY
00:43:21.06\00:43:26.70
SHOUT OUT, AND
INTERRUPT THE SPEAKER.
00:43:26.70\00:43:29.14
PAUL WAS SAYING, DON'T CARRY
ON LIKE WOMEN DO IN THE PAGAN
00:43:29.14\00:43:36.98
TEMPLES. BE QUIET AND LISTEN.
00:43:36.98\00:43:40.28
THAT MAKES SENSE
TO ME. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:43:40.28\00:43:46.22
>> AMEN. >> AMEN.
00:43:46.22\00:43:47.86
>> AND THEN LOOK AT VERSE 35,
AND IF THEY WILL LEARN ANYTHING,
00:43:47.86\00:43:53.29
LET THEM ASK THEIR HUSBANDS
AT HOME, FOR IT IS A SHAME FOR
00:43:53.29\00:43:57.20
WOMEN TO SPEAK IN THE CHURCH,
AND THERE IS SOMETHING YOU DON'T
00:43:57.20\00:44:01.20
UNDERSTAND, PAUL, IS SAYING,
IF THERE'S SOMETHING YOU DON'T
00:44:01.20\00:44:04.44
UNDERSTAND, DON'T DO
LIKE THEY DID IN THE PAGAN
00:44:04.44\00:44:08.34
TEMPLES -- DON'T
INTERRUPT THE SPEAKER.
00:44:08.34\00:44:12.48
WAIT UNTIL YOU GET
HOME AND ASK YOUR HUSBAND.
00:44:12.48\00:44:17.35
MAYBE HE'LL KNOW,
AND MAYBE HE WON'T KNOW.
00:44:17.35\00:44:20.02
[ LAUGHTER ]-p>> MAYBE HE
CAN EXPLAIN AND MAYBE HE WON'T
00:44:20.02\00:44:32.20
UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS
SAID HIMSELF. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:44:32.20\00:44:36.34
>> WELL, I GOT AWAY WITH
THAT. I -- I CAME THROUGH.
00:44:36.34\00:44:39.24
[ LAUGHTER ] >>
THAT'S WHAT PAUL WAS
00:44:39.24\00:44:44.71
ADDRESSING WITH HIS COUNCIL.
THAT WAS THE CONTEXT OF HIS
00:44:44.71\00:44:48.62
COUNCIL. ADDRESSING
WHAT WAS GOING ON IN
00:44:48.62\00:44:50.72
HIS TIME. AND THEN
LOOK AT 1 CORINTHIANS
00:44:50.72\00:44:57.16
14:36, WHAT CAME THE
WORD OF GOD UNTO YOU.
00:44:57.16\00:45:00.60
PAUL IS SAYING WHEN IT COMES TO
THE CHURCH OF GOD, YOU ARE NOT
00:45:00.60\00:45:03.73
THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS
THEY HAVE GOT SOMETHING TO SAY.
00:45:03.73\00:45:09.54
JUST BECAUSE YOU FEEL YOU ARE
CONVICTED ABOUT WHAT YOU WANT TO
00:45:09.54\00:45:13.21
SAY, DON'T THINK YOU ARE
THE ONLY ONE GOD HAS SPOKEN TO.
00:45:13.21\00:45:18.91
>> AMEN! >> YOU ARE
NOT THE ONLY ONE GOD
00:45:18.91\00:45:21.85
HAS GIVEN A MESSAGE TO
GIVE TO THE WHOLE CHURCH.
00:45:21.85\00:45:25.32
>> AMEN. >> AND
THEN PAUL SAYS IN VERSE
00:45:25.32\00:45:29.52
37 IF ANY MAN THINK HIMSELF
TO BE A PROFIT OR SPIRITUAL, LET
00:45:29.52\00:45:32.53
HIM ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE THINGS
THAT I WRITE UNTO YOU, ARE THE
00:45:32.53\00:45:36.43
COMMAND S OF THE LORD, BUT IF
ANY MAN BE IGNORANT, LET HIM BE
00:45:36.43\00:45:42.47
IGNORANT. IF ANYONE
TELLS YOU HE DOES NOT
00:45:42.47\00:45:44.64
INTEND TO FOLLOW THE COUNCIL,
GOD HAS GIVEN ME TO SHARE, PAUL
00:45:44.64\00:45:50.71
SAYS, THAT PERSON
IS IGNORANT. >> AMEN.
00:45:50.71\00:45:55.72
>> LOOK AT VERSE 38, BUT IF ANY
MAN BE IGNORANT, LET HIM REMAIN
00:45:55.72\00:46:08.00
IGN IGNORANT.
00:46:08.00\00:46:09.10
WHERE FOR BRETHREN, FORBID
NOT TO SPEAK WITH TONGUES.
00:46:09.10\00:46:14.30
LET ALL THINGS BE DONE
DERECENTLY AND IN ORDER.
00:46:14.30\00:46:19.94
AND 14:40, ALL THINGS BE
DONE DERECENTLY, AND IN ORDER.
00:46:19.94\00:46:26.41
CHURCH LIKE EVERY OTHER
GIFT, THE GIF OF TONGUES HAS ITS
00:46:26.41\00:46:29.85
PLACE, BUT PAUL MAKES IT CLEAR,
IT IS NOT A PRIMARY GIFT, LIKE
00:46:29.85\00:46:33.52
OTHER GIFTS. YES,
THE GIFT OF TONGUES LIKE
00:46:33.52\00:46:37.73
EVERY OTHER GIFT HAS ITS PLACE,
BUT AT THEN OF THE DAY, AT THEN
00:46:37.73\00:46:41.43
OF THE DAY,
THAT'S ALL IT IS, A GIFT.
00:46:41.43\00:46:49.47
THE GIFT OF TONGUES DOES NOT
GIVE YOU MORE IMPORTANCE IN THE
00:46:49.47\00:46:53.78
KINGDOM OF GOD THAN
ANYONE ELSE. >> AMEN.
00:46:53.78\00:46:56.38
>> IT DOES NOT GIVE YOU MORE
FAVOR THAN GOD GIVES TO OTHERS.
00:46:56.38\00:47:01.65
IT IS NOT A GIFT THAT IS
SUPPOSEDLY THE TRUEST EVIDENCE
00:47:01.65\00:47:06.86
OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. >> AMEN.
00:47:06.86\00:47:08.79
>> AND BELIEVE YOU ME, GOD IS
NOT IMPRESSED WITH A GIFT HE HAS
00:47:08.79\00:47:13.83
GIVEN TO YOU. [ LAUGHTER ]
00:47:13.83\00:47:21.80
>> HALLELUJAH.
HE GAVE IT TO YOU.
00:47:21.80\00:47:25.37
WHY WOULD HE BE
IMPRESSED? [ LAUGHTER ]
00:47:25.37\00:47:27.98
>> THIS MOVEMENT TO MAKE
THE GIFT OF TONGUES THE PRIMARY
00:47:27.98\00:47:30.71
EVIDENCE OF THE BAPTISM OF
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS A RELATIVELY
00:47:30.71\00:47:37.35
MODERN PHENOMENON. IT
STARTED IN THE EARLY 1900S,
00:47:37.35\00:47:42.29
AND JUST IN CASE ANYBODY TELLS
YOU THAT YOU HAVE TO SPEAK IN
00:47:42.29\00:47:46.46
TONGUES TO SHOW YOU HAVE THE
HOLY SPIRIT, TELL THEM WHEN GOD
00:47:46.46\00:47:51.43
GOES LOOKING FOR PEOPLE TO SAVE,
HE IS LOOKING FOR PEOPLE WHO
00:47:51.43\00:47:55.30
HAVE THE FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT
NOT THE GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT.
00:47:55.30\00:47:59.17
[ LAUGHTER ] >> YOU
DIDN'T HEAR WHAT I JUST
00:47:59.17\00:48:00.94
SAID. GOD IS NOT
LOOKING FOR PEOPLE
00:48:00.94\00:48:03.31
WITH THE GIFTS. HE IS
LOOKING FOR PEOPLE WITH
00:48:03.31\00:48:05.98
THE FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT.
TELL THEM NOWHERE IN THE BIBLE
00:48:05.98\00:48:10.45
DOES IT SAY THAT ANY GIFT OF THE
SPIRIT IS NECESSARY FOR EVERYONE
00:48:10.45\00:48:19.06
TO HAVE BEFORE
THEY ARE SAVED. >> AMEN.
00:48:19.06\00:48:22.10
>> AMEN. >> NOWHERE
IN THE WORLD OF GOD,
00:48:22.10\00:48:28.00
DOES IT SAY THAT THERE IS
ANY GIFT OF THE SPIRIT THAT
00:48:28.00\00:48:34.31
EVERYBODY MUST HAVE
BEFORE THEY ARE SAVED.
00:48:34.31\00:48:36.64
>> AMEN. >> NOW LET'S LOOK AT 1
00:48:36.64\00:48:41.88
CORINTHIANS 12:4, THERE ARE
DIVERSITIES OF GIFTS, BUT ONE
00:48:41.88\00:48:48.52
SPIRIT. TO
ANOTHER FAITH BY THE SAME
00:48:48.52\00:48:51.36
SPIRIT, TO ANOTHER WORK OF
MIRACLES, THEN BEFORE I LEAVE
00:48:51.36\00:48:55.30
YOU, WHY SO MUCH CONTROVERSY
OVER SOMETHING THAT IS NOT
00:48:55.30\00:49:01.27
NECESSARY FOR
SALVATION? [ LAUGHTER ]
00:49:01.27\00:49:03.81
>> THAT'S THE ENEMY. WHY
SO MUCH CONTROVERSY ABOUT
00:49:03.81\00:49:10.88
SOMETHING THAT -- DO YOU
BELIEVE WHAT I'M SAYING TO YOU?
00:49:10.88\00:49:13.21
>> YES! >> DO YOU
BELIEVE THAT YOU DO
00:49:13.21\00:49:17.92
NOT HAVE TO HAVE
THAT GIFT TO BE SAVED?
00:49:17.92\00:49:21.32
>> AMEN! >> AMEN.
00:49:21.32\00:49:24.96
>> SPEAKING IN TONGUES DOESN'T
MAKE YOU MORE LOVED BY GOD.
00:49:24.96\00:49:29.63
>> AMEN. >>
SPEAKING IN TONGUES DOESN'T
00:49:29.63\00:49:32.67
MAKE YOU MORE
SPECIAL TO GOD. >> AMEN.
00:49:32.67\00:49:38.84
>> GOD HAS SOME -- ALL OF
THESE GIFTS IN THE CHURCH.
00:49:38.84\00:49:43.71
AND THEN BROTHERS AND SISTERS,
THIS IS PAUL'S ULTIMATE TEACHING
00:49:43.71\00:49:48.88
ON TONGUES. I SAID
DO YOU WANT TO HEAR
00:49:48.88\00:49:53.29
PAUL'S ULTIMATE -- >> AMEN.
00:49:53.29\00:49:55.59
>> -- DO YOU WANT TO HEAR AFTER
ALL THAT PAUL MAKES, ALL THAT HE
00:49:55.59\00:50:03.80
SETS FORTH, THEN HE MAKES CLEAR
THE MOS PROFOUND TEACHING ON
00:50:03.80\00:50:09.60
TONGUES. YOU CAN
FIND IT IN 1 CORINTHIANS
00:50:09.60\00:50:14.48
13:1, THROUGH THAT WHOLE
CHAPTER, THOUGH I SPEAK, WITH
00:50:14.48\00:50:20.75
THE TONGUES OF MAN, AND OF
ANGELS, AND HAVE NOT CHARITY,
00:50:20.75\00:50:27.39
HAVE NOT LOVE, I BECOME AS
A SOUNDING BRASS, OR TINGLING
00:50:27.39\00:50:32.89
SYMBOL, AND THOUGH I HAVE THE
GIFT OF PROPHECY, AND THOUGH I
00:50:32.89\00:50:36.26
HAVE ALL FAITH SO I CAN REMOVE
MOUNTAINS, AND HAVE NOT LOVE,
00:50:36.26\00:50:40.30
HAVE NOT CHARITY, I AM NOTHING,
AND THOUGH I RESTORE ALL OF MY
00:50:40.30\00:50:44.64
GOODS TO FEED THE POOR, AND GIVE
MY BODY TO BURN AND HAVE NOT
00:50:44.64\00:50:51.05
CHARITY, LOVE SUFFERTH LONG AND
KIND, LOVE BORNTH NOT ITSELF, IS
00:50:51.05\00:50:57.12
IS NOT PUFFED UP, IT IS
NOT EASILY PROVOKED, THINKTH NO
00:50:57.12\00:51:04.73
EVIL, REJOICES IN THE TRUTH,
BARETH ALL THINGS, BELIEVE IN
00:51:04.73\00:51:09.00
ALL THINGS, HOPETH ALL THINGS.
ENDURETH ALL THINGS, LOVE NEVER

FAITH, AND WHETHER THERE
BE PROPHECY, THEY SHALL FAIL.
00:51:15.64\00:51:21.41
WHETHER THERE BE
TONGUES THEY SHALL CEASE.
00:51:21.41\00:51:26.55
AND THAT WHICH IS PERFECT HAS
COME, THEN THAT WHICH IS IN PART
00:51:26.55\00:51:30.12
SHALL BE DONE AWAY. WHEN
I WAS A CHILD I SPAKE AS A
00:51:30.12\00:51:34.86
CHILD, I UNDERSTANDING AS A
CHILD, I THOUGHT AS A CHILD, BUT
00:51:34.86\00:51:37.69
WHEN I BECAME A MAN, I PUT AWAY
CHILDISH THINGS, SO NOW WE SEE
00:51:37.69\00:51:44.27
THROUGH OUR GLSS DARKLY, BUT
FACE-TO-FACE, I SHALL KNOW EVEN
00:51:44.27\00:51:49.17
AS ALSO I AM KNOWN, AND NOW
ABIDETH FAITH, HOPE, CHARITY,
00:51:49.17\00:51:55.98
LOVE, THESE THREE. BUT
THE GREATEST OF THESE IS
00:51:55.98\00:51:59.58
TONGUES! [ LAUGHTER ]
00:51:59.58\00:52:05.22
>> THE GREATEST
OF THESE IS LOVE.
00:52:07.96\00:52:12.66
>> AMEN. >> PAUL
SAYS IF I DON'T KNOW HOW
00:52:12.66\00:52:17.33
TO LOVE, ALL MY SPEAKING
IN TONGUES IS MEANINGLESS.
00:52:17.33\00:52:24.71
AMEN? >> AMEN!
00:52:24.71\00:52:25.74
>> PAUL IS REMINDING US NO
MATTER THE GIFT, IF YOU DON'T
00:52:25.74\00:52:32.55
PASS THE LOVE TEST, ALL
YOUR GIFTS DON'T MEAN A THING.
00:52:32.55\00:52:37.32
PAUL IS REMINDING US, KEEP
FOCUSED ON WHAT IS IMPORTANT FOR
00:52:37.32\00:52:43.43
YOUR SALVATION.
DON'T LET ANYBODY STEER YOU
00:52:43.43\00:52:48.46
AWARE FROM WHAT IS
IMPORTANT TO YOUR SALVATION.
00:52:48.46\00:52:51.50
PAUL REMINDS US THAT LOVE IS
MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANY GIFT WE
00:52:51.50\00:52:57.84
HAVE. GIFTEDNESS IS NEVER AS
00:52:57.84\00:53:01.08
IMPRESSIVE TO
GOD AS FAITHFULNESS.
00:53:01.08\00:53:03.95
>> AMEN. >> FAITHFULNESS TO THE
00:53:03.95\00:53:07.32
PRINCIPLES OF HIS CHARACTER,
FAITHFULNESS TO HIS LOVE.
00:53:07.32\00:53:11.55
LOVE IS THE SENETH, THE SUMMIT
THE CULMINATION OF ALL THAT IS
00:53:11.55\00:53:20.36
THE CHARACTER OF GOD, WITHOUT
LOVE, ALL OF OUR GIFTS ARE
00:53:20.36\00:53:25.00
WORTHLESS. ELLEN
WHITE SAYS -- AND PEOPLE
00:53:25.00\00:53:27.40
ALWAYS SAY -- WHEN PEOPLE GET
UPSET OR CONCERNED ABOUT QUOTING
00:53:27.40\00:53:31.84
ELLEN WHITE, YOU
KNOW WHAT I SAY TO THEM?
00:53:31.84\00:53:35.14
WHEN YOU START WRITING THINGS AS
PROFOUND, I WILL QUOE YOU TOO.
00:53:35.14\00:53:38.15
[ LAUGHTER ] >> OH, YEAH!
00:53:38.15\00:53:43.22
[ LAUGHTER ] >> AMEN.
00:53:43.22\00:53:46.72
>> SHE SAID WHAT WAS WRONG WITH
THE PEOPLE WHO LIVED BEFORE THE
00:53:46.72\00:53:51.33
FLOOD? THEY HAD
RECEIVED MANY GIFTS
00:53:51.33\00:53:55.50
FROM GOD, BUT THEY USED THOSE
GIFTS FOR THEIR OWN SELFISH
00:53:55.50\00:54:00.97
DESIRES, AND THEY TURNED
THE GIFTS OF GOD INTO A CURSE.
00:54:00.97\00:54:05.77
BY FIXING THEIR THOUGHTS
AND AFFECTIONS UPON THE GIFTS
00:54:05.77\00:54:12.85
INSTEAD OF UPON
THE GIVER. >> AMEN.
00:54:12.85\00:54:15.75
>> WHOO!
CORINTHIANS IN PAUL'S DAY, THEY
00:54:15.75\00:54:22.69
HAS PROSTITUTED THE GIFT OF
TONGUES INTO SOMETHING PAGAN
00:54:22.69\00:54:26.66
THAT WASN'T EVEN REPRESENTATIVE
OF THE WORK OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:54:26.66\00:54:30.90
AND IN THE LAST VERSE OF CHAPTER
13, GOD REMINDS US THAT GREATER
00:54:30.90\00:54:37.57
THAN ANY GIFT IS, WHAT? >> LOVE.
00:54:37.57\00:54:40.98
>> GREATER THAN
ANY GIFT IS LOVE.
00:54:40.98\00:54:46.18
SOMEONE SAID PEACE.
PEACE IS LOVE RESTING.
00:54:46.18\00:54:49.28
BIBLE STUDY IS LOVE READING.
PRAYER IS LOVE COMMUNICATING.
00:54:49.28\00:54:58.26
SYMPATHY IS LOVE FEELING.
ENTHUSIASM IS LOVE BURNING.
00:54:58.26\00:55:08.24
HOPE IS LOVE EXPECTING.
PATIENCE IS LOVE WAITING.
00:55:08.24\00:55:17.61
FAITHFULNESS IS
LOVE HOLDING FAST.
00:55:17.61\00:55:22.22
HUMILITY IS LOVE SHRINKING.
MODESTY IS LOVE KEEPING OUT OF
00:55:22.22\00:55:32.63
SIGHT.
SOUL-WINNING IS LOVE PLEADING.
00:55:32.63\00:55:36.06
OH, I LOVE THAT. >> AMEN.
00:55:36.06\00:55:37.97
>> SOUL-WINNING
IS LOVE PLEADING.
00:55:37.97\00:55:44.11
IF I SPEAK WITH THE TONGUES OF
MEN AND OF ANGELS, AND HAVE NOT
00:55:44.11\00:55:50.05
LOVE, I AM NOTHING.
WITHOUT LOVE IN YOUR CHARACTER,
00:55:50.05\00:55:57.39
ACCURATING YOUR CHARACTER, ANY
GIFT YOU HAVE IS MEANINGLESS.
00:55:57.39\00:56:05.53
IF WHAT YOU DO BY HABIT AND
DEFAULT IS NOT DEFINED BY LOVE,
00:56:05.53\00:56:12.77
IS NOT DRIVEN BY LOVE, IS
NOT DIRECTED BY LOVE, IS NOT
00:56:12.77\00:56:18.54
DECORATED BY LOVE, IS
NOT DEEPENED BY LOVE, IS NOT
00:56:18.54\00:56:23.35
DEFENDED BY LOVE, IS NOT
DELEGATED BY LOVE, IS NOT
00:56:23.35\00:56:28.55
DETERMINED BY LOVE, ALL YOUR
GIFTEDNESS MEANS NOTHING WITHOUT
00:56:28.55\00:56:35.39
LOVE. LOVE
BARES, BELIEVES, HOPES,
00:56:35.39\00:56:40.60
ENDURES. THESE
THREE, BUT THE GREATEST OF
00:56:40.60\00:56:44.67
THESE IS LOVE. >> AMEN.
00:56:44.67\00:56:48.67
>> PRAISE THE LORD
OF HEAVEN. >> AMEN.
00:56:48.67\00:56:52.71
>> SOMEBODY SAY
PRAISE THE LORD OF HEAVEN.
00:56:52.71\00:56:54.78
>> PRAISE THE LORD. >>
WHATEVER GIFTS WE POSSESS,
00:56:54.78\00:57:01.25
THEY ARE NO VALUE WITHOUT LOVE.
THE MOST IMPORTANT GIFT THAT WE
00:57:01.25\00:57:10.46
COULD EVER HAVE IS THE BLESSING
OF THE LOVE OF GOD IN OUR
00:57:10.46\00:57:16.23
HEARTS. >> AMEN.
00:57:16.23\00:57:17.13
>> FATHER WE BLESS
YOUR NAME. WE THANK YOU.
00:57:17.13\00:57:21.77
WE HONOR YOU. TEACH
US HOW TO LOVE YOU MORE
00:57:21.77\00:57:25.47
EVERY DAY. AMEN.
