HELLO, GOOD FRIENDS AND
WELCOME AGAIN TO "ADVENTURES IN
00:00:21.96\00:00:26.90
MISSIONS". IT IS SUCH A DELIGHT
TO BE ABLE TO BE HERE WITH YOU
AT GOSPEL OUTREACH FOR
00:00:26.90\00:00:32.23
ANOTHER SEASON OF PROGRAMS,
UPDATED REPORTS ABOUT WHAT'S
00:00:32.23\00:00:37.70
GOING ON IN THE
WORLD OF GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:00:37.70\00:00:39.93
I AM PARTICULARLY EXCITED RIGHT
NOW AND IN A AICIPATION OF BEING
00:00:39.93\00:00:44.93
HERE, MY EXCITEMENT WAS BUILDING
BECAUSE I GET TO BE WITH MY DEAR
00:00:44.93\00:00:50.36
FRIEND WHOM I HAVE NOT SEEN
FOR TOO LONG, GEORGE JOHNSON.
00:00:50.36\00:00:54.03
WELCOME, GEORGE.
00:00:54.03\00:00:55.13
SO GOOD TO BE
WHERE YOU ARE EVERYTIME.
00:00:55.13\00:00:58.03
THANK YOU.
00:00:58.03\00:01:00.43
WITH SAYING THAT I HAVEN'T SEEN
YOU FOR A WHILE, YOU'VE HAD SOME
00:01:00.43\00:01:04.16
VERY SPECIAL ASSIGNMENTS THAT
GIVE A CONTEXT FOR WHAT WE WANT
TO TALK ABOUT IN THIS
00:01:04.16\00:01:10.00
PROGRAM BY WAY OF INSPIRING
OUR VIEWERS, OUR GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:01:10.00\00:01:15.56
FAMILY ABOUT WHAT GOD IS DOING
IN OUR WORLD AND SOME OF THE
STRUGGLES THAT HAPPEN.
00:01:15.56\00:01:21.03
SO, TELL US WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?
00:01:21.03\00:01:23.50
WHAT'S BEEN HAPPENING?
00:01:23.50\00:01:25.06
WELL, I'M RETIRED AND I WAS
REQUESTED BACK IN JULY, 2012 TO
00:01:25.06\00:01:31.13
GO TO PAKISTAN AS THE INTERIM
PRESIDENT OF OUR WORK THERE.
00:01:34.83\00:01:39.43
SO, I WAS SERVING THERE NOT ONLY
AS A GOSPEL OUTREACH COUNTRY
00:01:39.43\00:01:43.76
DIRECTOR BUT ALSO AS A
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER FOR THE
00:01:43.76\00:01:47.03
CHURCH. OF THE LAST ELEVEN
MONTHS I'VE SPENT ABOUT 8 MONTHS
00:01:47.03\00:01:50.13
INSIDE PAKISTAN. AND THAT WAS A
REQUEST YOU COULD NOT TURN DOWN
BECAUSE YOU ARE REALLY
00:01:50.13\00:01:57.50
GOING BACK TO YOUR BOYHOOD HOME.
00:01:57.50\00:01:59.50
THAT'S CORRECT.
00:01:59.50\00:02:00.56
TELL US ABOUT
YOUR BEGINNINGS THERE.
00:02:00.56\00:02:02.60
WELL, THE DECISION WAS AN
IMPORTANT THING, IT TOOK MY WIFE
00:02:02.60\00:02:08.86
AND I MAYBE A DAY
TO SETTLE THE MATTER.
00:02:08.86\00:02:10.60
SHE TOLD ME, SHE SAID, "I KNOW
THAT YOU'RE THE MAN TO GO THERE
00:02:10.60\00:02:16.13
BECAUSE YOU SPEAK THE LANGUAGE
AND SO FORTH AND WE HAVE
EXPERIENCE PLUS, SHE SAID,
00:02:16.13\00:02:20.13
GOD ALWAYS CARED FOR US THERE.
00:02:20.13\00:02:22.63
I HAVE NO REASON TO INDICATE
THAT I SHOULD DOUBT HIS CARE AND
00:02:22.63\00:02:27.76
HIS KEEPING FOR
US IN THE FUTURE."
00:02:27.76\00:02:29.20
THERE HAD BEEN A CRISIS IN
LEADERSHIP AND SO I WAS ASKED TO
00:02:29.20\00:02:34.90
GO BACK AND RESTRUCTURE THE
LEADERSHIP ON BEHALF OF THE
SOUTHERN ASIA PACIFIC DIVISION.
00:02:34.90\00:02:39.96
AND BASICALLY, EVERYONE AROUND
ME BESIDES MY WIFE, SAID "YOU
00:02:42.06\00:02:46.50
ARE CRAZY, YOU'VE
GOT A DEATH WISH."
00:02:46.50\00:02:48.03
BUT IN GOING BACK, I FOUND THAT
MY WIFE AND I WERE CORRECT IN
00:02:48.03\00:02:54.96
JUST BELIEVING THAT
GOD ALWAYS WATCHES OVER US.
00:02:54.96\00:02:58.16
YOU KNOW PAKISTAN IS KIND OF
KNOWN BY MOST EVERYONE WHO SEES
00:02:58.16\00:03:04.30
ANY NEWS TODAY OR HEARS ANY
REPORTS OF INTERNATIONAL WORLD
AFFAIRS, AND FOR YOU TO GO
00:03:07.46\00:03:14.30
IN KIND OF A-- I DON'T WANT TO
CALL IT OTHER THAN A "HOT BED OF
00:03:14.30\00:03:19.90
TROUBLE" IN TODAY'S WORLD.
00:03:19.90\00:03:20.90
YES, YOU WENT.
00:03:20.90\00:03:21.90
GOD BLESSED.
00:03:21.90\00:03:23.20
YOU ARE BACK.
00:03:23.20\00:03:25.46
WE'RE GRATEFUL.
00:03:25.46\00:03:27.00
DID YOU LOOK OVER
YOUR SHOULDER A LOT?
00:03:27.00\00:03:29.26
ANY FEAR?
00:03:29.26\00:03:31.13
I'M MORE CAUTIOUS THAN I WAS
BACK IN THE 60'S, 70'S AND EARLY
00:03:31.13\00:03:37.23
80'S WHEN I SERVED
THERE FOR SIXTEEN YEARS.
00:03:37.23\00:03:39.46
BUT THE FACTS ARE THAT PEOPLE
ARE PEOPLE EVERYWHERE AND EVEN
00:03:39.46\00:03:45.33
THOUGH FIVE PER CENT PERHAPS, OF
THE PAKISTAN POPULATION ARE
INVOLVED IN RADICAL,
00:03:45.33\00:03:51.40
YOU KNOW, ACTIVITIES AND FAITH
AND BELIEF, NINETY FIVE PER CENT
00:03:54.03\00:03:59.63
WOULD JUST LIKE
TO BE LEFT ALONE.
00:03:59.63\00:04:01.90
THEY WOULD LIKE TO
CARE FOR THEIR FAMILIES.
00:04:01.90\00:04:03.90
THEY'D LIKE TO BRING BACK ENOUGH
FROM THEIR DRIVING A TAXI OR
00:04:03.90\00:04:09.53
WHATEVER IT IS THEY DO TO
SUPPORT AND FEED THEIR FAMILIES;
TO OWN A LITTLE HOME.
00:04:09.53\00:04:14.26
SO, REALLY THERE ARE MANY, MANY
MODERATES THERE AND THEY GREET
00:04:14.26\00:04:18.50
EVERYONE WITH THE SAME
HOSPITALITY THAT THEY ALWAYS
00:04:18.50\00:04:20.50
DID. YOU KNOW, YOU REMIND ME
AND YOU AND I ARE CONNECTING A
00:04:20.50\00:04:25.20
LITTLE BIT SPECIALLY HERE ON
THIS PROGRAM GEORGE, BECAUSE YOU
ARE WEARING A BATIK
00:04:25.20\00:04:29.83
SHIRT AND I JUST RETURNED A FEW
DAYS AGO FROM INDONESIA WHERE
00:04:29.83\00:04:37.73
BATIK SHIRTS ARE A VERY
IMPORTANT PART OF THE DRESS AND
00:04:37.73\00:04:43.73
BEING THERE I WAS REMINDED THAT
INDEED, MOST OF THOSE FOLKS HAVE
BEEN LIVING PEACEFULLY
00:04:43.73\00:04:49.80
TOGETHER IN THAT COMMUNITY,
NEIGHBORS AND THEY WANT IT TO BE
00:04:52.40\00:04:57.86
THAT WAY.
00:04:57.86\00:04:59.33
IN FACT, ONE MUSLIM FRIEND WHOM
I MADE IN INDONESIA SAID, "DAN,
00:04:59.33\00:05:05.00
PLEASE DON'T
GENERALIZE ALL MUSLIMS."
00:05:07.06\00:05:09.83
I THINK THAT IS GOOD COUNSEL FOR
US AND A VALUABLE THING THAT WE
00:05:09.83\00:05:14.00
COULD PROBABLY SHARE IN THIS
PROGRAM SO THAT OUR VIEWERS CAN
00:05:14.00\00:05:19.03
HAVE AN UNDERSTANDING THAT
THOSE ARE ALL GOD'S CHILDREN.
00:05:19.03\00:05:22.76
THEY MAY NOT KNOW IT THE SAME
WAY W WDO BUT THEY DESERVE TO BE
00:05:22.76\00:05:27.36
LOVED BY SOMEBODY LIKE YOURSELF
WHO IS WILLING TO GO THERE.
00:05:27.36\00:05:29.66
WHAT IS THE STATE OF THE GOSPEL
OUTREACH WORK AND THE WORK THAT
00:05:29.66\00:05:37.00
THE SEVENTH DAY
ADVENTIST CHURCH IN PAKISTAN?
00:05:37.00\00:05:39.00
THE STATE OF THE CHURCH
ACTUALLY, INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH,
00:05:39.00\00:05:44.13
DURING THE YEAR PERIOD AND WE'VE
RECEIVED SPECIAL FUNDS FROM
CHURCH HEADQUARTERS TO DO CITY
00:05:44.13\00:05:49.60
EVANGELISM.
00:05:49.60\00:05:51.06
THESE REACHED THE COUNTRY
LATE; I BEGAN IN JULY BUT IT WAS
00:05:51.06\00:05:55.96
PROBABLY A COUPLE OF MONTHS
LATER WHEN WE STARTED THE
EVANGELIST MEETINGS, BUT DURING
00:05:55.96\00:05:59.73
THE YEAR 2012 THERE WERE BETTER
CHURCH ACQUISITIONS, BAPTISMS,
00:05:59.73\00:06:05.10
AND SO FORTH.
00:06:05.10\00:06:06.13
MORE EVANGELISM DONE
THAN IN THE TEN YEARS PRIOR.
00:06:06.13\00:06:09.53
OF A CHURCH OF 15,000 TOTAL
MEMBERSHIP-SOME 850 PEOPLE WERE
00:06:09.53\00:06:16.56
BAPTIZED DURING 2012.
00:06:16.56\00:06:18.03
NOW IS THAT THROUGH WHAT WE
THINK OF AS TRADITIONAL
EVANGELISTIC OUTREACH?
00:06:18.03\00:06:25.16
A LOT OF IT IS AND ABOUT HALF
THE WORKER FORCE IN PAKISTAN ARE
00:06:25.16\00:06:31.13
GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS.
00:06:31.13\00:06:32.43
WOW.
00:06:32.43\00:06:33.63
SO I MEAN, FIFTY PER CENT
OF THAT YOU CAN CREDIT TO THIS.
00:06:33.63\00:06:36.36
BUT I SPOKE IN MEETINGS, I WOULD
BE INVITED FOR LUNCH, FOR DINNER
00:06:36.36\00:06:40.40
IN THE EVENING AND GO INTO A
LITTLE, WE CALL IT A BUSTE, IT
00:06:40.40\00:06:45.13
IS REALLY JUST A LITTLE, A POOR
GHETTO AND THE STREETS MIGHT BE
FIFTEEN, TWENTY FEET AT
00:06:45.13\00:06:49.93
MOST, WIDE.
00:06:49.93\00:06:51.03
THEY COOKED RICE FOR
2-300 PEOPLE, AFTER INVITING ME.
00:06:51.03\00:06:57.93
AND I WENT INTO THE ELDER'S
HOME, ATE WITH THEM AND THEY
00:06:57.93\00:07:03.36
WERE ALREADY TUNING UP
THE MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS.
00:07:03.36\00:07:05.36
THEY'D SET CARPETS ON THE FLOOR.
00:07:05.36\00:07:07.33
THEY HAD RENTED
THIS FOR ONE NIGHT.
00:07:07.33\00:07:09.33
THEY HAD THE MUSIC GOING AND
PEOPLE UP AND DOWN THAT ALLEY
00:07:09.33\00:07:15.56
WOULD STAND IN THE DOORWAYS,
MUSLIMS, CHRISTIANS AND WATCH AS
00:07:15.56\00:07:19.86
THIS WAS GOING ON. I PREACHED
PUBLICLY ON THE STREET OF THAT
GHETTO AREA AND THERE WERE
00:07:19.86\00:07:27.10
PROBABLY 300 PEOPLE ATTENDING
AND SITTING THERE LISTENING.
00:07:27.10\00:07:30.10
THIS IS PUBLIC.
00:07:30.10\00:07:31.46
YOU KNOW, AS AN OLD PREACHER
MYSELF, MY CURIOSITY ASKS WHAT
00:07:31.46\00:07:37.66
DO YOU PREACH ON IN
A SETTING LIKE THAT?
00:07:37.66\00:07:41.06
IT KIND OF DEPENDS ON WHO IS
THERE BUT I OFTEN SPEAK ABOUT
THE POWER OF GOD AND
00:07:41.06\00:07:47.43
I OFTEN SPOKE OF CHRISTIANS
AS BEING MODELS FOR THE WORLD
00:07:47.43\00:07:54.93
BECAUSE AFTER ALL, WE HAVE BEEN
BLESSED SO RICHLY AND IF WE
TEACH LOVE, WE MUST
00:07:54.93\00:08:00.73
LIVE LOVE.
00:08:00.73\00:08:02.00
IF WE TEACH FORGIVENESS,
WE MUST LIVE FORGIVENESS.
00:08:02.00\00:08:06.00
IF WE TEACH SABBATH OBSERVANCE,
IT SHOULD NOT BE SOME LEGAL
00:08:06.00\00:08:11.16
OBSERVANCE OF THIS BUT WE
SHOULD BE PRACTICING LOVE AND
00:08:11.16\00:08:15.73
CONSIDERATION. REMEMBER NOW,
THAT IN SOME OF THESE
COMMUNITIES THERE HAS BEEN
00:08:15.73\00:08:19.56
ENCROACHMENT. IN THAT SAME
COMMUNITY THEY WERE FIRED ON.
00:08:19.56\00:08:22.26
THEY WERE ATTACKED BY NEIGHBORS
IN THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES
00:08:22.26\00:08:26.46
WHICH WERE LARGELY MUSLIM.
00:08:26.46\00:08:28.96
TODAY, ALONG ONE OF THE STREETS
OF THAT AREA WITH A GRAVEYARD
00:08:28.96\00:08:33.30
ADJOINING, THERE IS A 12-15 FOOT
WALL THAT HAS BEEN CONSTRUCTED
00:08:33.30\00:08:38.46
TO KEEP THE TWTW
COMMUNITIES APART.
00:08:38.46\00:08:39.86
BUT YOU KNOW, I BELIEVE, IN
FACT, ONE OF OUR MEMBERS SHOWED
00:08:39.86\00:08:44.50
ME A WOUND ON HIS LEG THAT
HE ACCUMULATED DURING THE FIRING
00:08:44.50\00:08:48.03
AND DURING THE SHOOTING.
00:08:48.03\00:08:49.23
BUT YOU KNOW I BELIEVE THAT
WE HAVE TO BE THERE AS SALT.
00:08:49.23\00:08:52.86
WE'VE GOT TO BE THERE AS LIGHT
AND SO OFTEN I WOULD SPEAK TO
00:08:52.86\00:08:57.46
THE CONGREGATION
ABOUT THIS TYPE OF THING.
00:08:57.46\00:08:58.90
WELL, AND WHEN THERE IS APPEAL
THAT GROWS OUT OF OUR DESIRE FOR
00:08:58.90\00:09:06.36
PEACE AND HARMONY AND LOVE,
PEOPLE CAN'T ARGUE WITH THAT AND
THAT IS THE EPITOME OF THE
00:09:06.36\00:09:12.13
CHARACTER OF JESUS CHRIST, OF
COURSE, THAT WE ARE COMMISSIONED
00:09:12.13\00:09:17.26
TO COMMUNICATE.
00:09:17.26\00:09:19.03
THEN WHAT I'M HEARING YOU SAY,
THESE PEOPLE WERE -THE RICE WAS
00:09:19.03\00:09:26.23
ONLY A AFTERTHOUGHT PROBABLY
BECAUSE THEY CAME BECAUSE YOU
00:09:26.23\00:09:31.00
WERE GOING TO BE THERE.
00:09:31.00\00:09:32.50
WELL, I THINK THAT THE ELDER'S
FAMILY WITH WHOM I SUPPED THAT
00:09:32.50\00:09:37.33
EVENING, THEY TOTALLY HAD
PLANNED-I MEAN I EXPECTED TO GET
HOME A COUPLE OF HOURS LATER.
00:09:37.33\00:09:41.80
INSTEAD I GOT HOME AT 11 OR
12 O'CLOCK AT NIGHT BUT THEY HAD
00:09:41.80\00:09:46.80
TOTALLY PLANNED TO HAVE THE
GROUP IN AND CELEBRATE MY
ARRIVAL AND MY BEING THERE.
00:09:46.80\00:09:52.10
BY THE WAY, SOMETHING HAD
HAPPENED 20 YEARS AGO WHERE I
00:09:52.10\00:09:57.30
SENT THAT ELDER TO THE HOSPITAL
WHICH THE ADVENTISTS OPERATE IN
00:09:57.30\00:10:01.30
KARACHI. IT HAD BEEN BROKEN, HIS
ARM HAD BEEN CAST THE WRONG WAY.
00:10:01.30\00:10:05.50
HE LIVED 3 YEARS OR SO WITH A
BROKEN ARM AND I WROTE A LITTLE
00:10:05.50\00:10:11.90
NOTE UP IN LAHORE AT
HEADQUARTERS ASKING THE
PHYSICIANS TO TAKE CARE OF THIS.
00:10:11.90\00:10:15.53
HE WENT DOWN THERE.
00:10:15.53\00:10:16.43
THEY SAID, "OH,
PASTOR JOHNSON SENT YOU."
00:10:16.43\00:10:19.33
HIS ARM TODAY IS STRAIGHT.
00:10:19.33\00:10:21.13
I MEAN HE WAS
CELEBRATING THAT I'D COME BACK.
00:10:21.13\00:10:23.13
YOU KNOW YOU REMIND ME TOO,
GEORGE, PRECIOUS PEOPLE IN MOST
00:10:23.13\00:10:29.20
OF THOSE ORIENTAL COUNTRIES ARE
SO GRACIOUS, SO RESPECTFUL THEY
WANT YOU TO KNOW YOU
00:10:33.36\00:10:39.43
ARE APPRECIATED.
00:10:42.30\00:10:43.30
AMEN.
00:10:43.30\00:10:44.63
AND THEY GO TO ANY LENGTH TO
SHOWERERHE BEST THEY CAN UPON
00:10:44.63\00:10:49.50
YOU. AND MY LITTLE EXPERIENCE,
NOTHING LIKE YOURS, BUT MY
LITTLE EXPERIENCE HAS
00:10:49.50\00:10:53.00
OBSERVED AND RECEIVED
THE SAME THING AS WELL.
00:10:53.00\00:10:57.06
NOW, I JUST WANT TO GO BACK.
00:10:57.06\00:11:00.70
HALF OF THE GOSPEL WORKERS
IN PAKISTAN ARE GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:11:00.70\00:11:05.93
WORKERS? THAT'S CORRECT.
00:11:05.93\00:11:07.40
AND SO THE WORK THERE, TO
WHATEVER DEGREE, THERE IS
BLESSING AND BENEFITTING
00:11:07.40\00:11:13.86
LARGELY IS
ASSOCIATED WITH GOSPEL OUTREACH.
00:11:13.86\00:11:18.73
YES, I MEAN THESE FOLK
ARE ON THE FIRING LINE.
00:11:18.73\00:11:21.16
THEY NORMALLY DO NOT PASTOR OR
ASSIST WITH BIG CITY CHURCHES.
00:11:21.16\00:11:27.53
OFTEN THEY ARE INVOLVED IN
OPENING UP NEW AREAS IN
EVANGELISM, IN VISITING
00:11:27.53\00:11:32.26
HOME TO HOME IN
THESE ACTIVITIES.
00:11:32.26\00:11:34.96
WELL, THAT IS A LEAD FOR ME TO
SPEAK TO OUR VIEWERS ABOUT THE
00:11:34.96\00:11:42.40
SIGNIFICANCE OF GOSPEL OUTREACH
AND THE FACT THAT YOUR FAMILY OF
WORKERS ALL OVER THE
00:11:42.40\00:11:48.90
WORLD, PARTICULARLY IN PAKISTAN,
THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT RIGHT
00:11:48.90\00:11:53.66
NOW ARE BEING USED BY THE LORD
TO ADVANCE HIS KINGDOM AND SO I
00:11:53.66\00:11:59.56
WANT TO SAY A BIG THANK YOU TO

INFORMATION YOU WILL NEED ABOUT
MAKING MORE AND MORE
00:12:46.83\00:12:50.43

00:13:06.03\00:13:12.10
LEADERSHIP INTO
PAKISTANI PEOPLE NOW.
00:13:14.03\00:13:16.53
YES, IT ISIS NATIONAL
PRESIDENT-YOUNG MAN, HE'S A SON
OF A PASTOR AND HE'S
00:13:16.53\00:13:23.43
RETURNED TO TAKE UP LEADERSHIP.
00:13:23.43\00:13:25.06
HE WAS STUDYING AT OUR SEMINARY
IN THE PHILIPPINES WORKING ON A
00:13:25.06\00:13:29.03
DOCTORATE AND WHEN I SPOKE
TO HIM ABOUT RETURNING AND SPOKE
00:13:29.03\00:13:35.13
ABOUT THE NEED FOR LEADERSHIP,
HE TOLD ME HE SAID "PASTOR, MY
WIFE AND I FROM THE VERY
00:13:35.13\00:13:40.50
BEGINNING HAVE DEDICATED
OURSELVES TO MINISTRY".
00:13:40.50\00:13:43.76
AND HE SAID, "IF WE HAVE AN
OPPORTUNITY TO SERVE BACK HOME,
00:13:43.76\00:13:48.93
I WILL DROP THE DOCTORATE, I
WILL COME HOME BECAUSE I BELIEVE
THAT WILL BE A CALL FROM
00:13:48.93\00:13:53.33
GOD."
00:13:53.33\00:13:54.53
DID HE DROP THE
DOCTORATE OR COMPLETE IT?
00:13:54.53\00:13:56.80
HE DROPPED IT.
00:13:56.80\00:13:58.20
IN ABOUT A MONTH'S TIME, HE
CAME TO A SEMESTER BREAK AND HE
00:13:58.20\00:14:03.23
RETURNED HOME.
00:14:03.23\00:14:04.23
I SEE.
00:14:04.23\00:14:05.60
NOW, I MUST ASK YOU GEORGE,
BECAUSE THE REPORTS HAVE COME TO
00:14:05.60\00:14:11.66
US THAT THERE HAVE BEEN SOME
UNFORTUNATE ATTACKS ON OUR
PEOPLE AND OUR CHURCHES IN
00:14:11.66\00:14:19.36
PAKISTAN.
00:14:19.36\00:14:21.10
ARE YOU ABLE TO GIVE US
A LITTLE UPDATE ON THAT?
00:14:21.10\00:14:24.20
YES, I CAN AND AS I SAY THESE
WORDS I WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND
00:14:24.20\00:14:31.96
THAT THESE ARE
ISOLATED INCIDENTS.
00:14:31.96\00:14:33.46
YOU ARE DEALING-PAKISTAN, WHEN I
WAS THERE IN THE 60'S POPULATION
00:14:33.46\00:14:39.50
WAS ABOUT 75 MILLION.
00:14:39.50\00:14:40.50
THAT INCLUDED
EAST AND WEST, O.K?
00:14:40.50\00:14:43.16
TODAY, WEST PAKISTAN, THE
COUNTRY OF PAKISTAN ALONE IS 185
00:14:43.16\00:14:49.20
MILLION. IN ONLY
ABOUT 40 YEARS OF TIME.
00:14:52.20\00:14:54.76
BANGLADESH IS PROBABLY A
BIT HIGHER BECAUSE THEY ACTUALLY
00:14:54.76\00:15:00.40
ACHIEVED A MAJORITY IN 1971.
00:15:00.40\00:15:03.03
SO THE BIRTH RATE WAS ALWAYS
HIGHER THERE BUT YOU ARE LOOKING
00:15:03.03\00:15:06.90
AT A LARGE POPULATION GROWTH.
00:15:06.90\00:15:08.46
AND THERE ARE SENSITIVITIES,
THERE ARE DIFFERENT RELIGIOUS
00:15:08.46\00:15:11.83
GROUPS THERE; YOU'VE GOT THE
SHIA MUSLIMS; YOU'VE GOT SUNNI
MUSLIMS IN PAKISTAN.
00:15:11.83\00:15:18.40
THE PERCENTAGE IS 70% SUNNI AND
ABABT 30% SHIA AND THEN YOU'VE
00:15:18.40\00:15:24.83
GOT MAYBE 3% OF CHRISTIAN OF
WHICH SEVENTH DAY ADVENTISTS ARE
JUST A SMALL PROPORTION.
00:15:24.83\00:15:32.46
THEN YOU'VE GOT
ABOUT ½% OF HINDUS.
00:15:32.46\00:15:35.23
SOME OF THE HINDUS, RIGHT NOW,
ARE REVERSE MIGRATING BACK TO
00:15:35.23\00:15:40.43
INDIA AND HINDUISM IS ACTUALLY
ANOTHER AREA FOR WITNESS FOR US.
00:15:40.43\00:15:45.90
AND DURING MY TIME THERE, WE
WERE ABLE TO ADD ONE WORKER WHO
00:15:45.90\00:15:51.50
IS STUDYING RIGHT NOW TO BE A
PASTOR AND THREE OTHERS WHO ARE
00:15:51.50\00:15:57.33
ACTUALLY WORKING. THEY HAVE A
LITTLE BIT OF WORKIKI EXPERIENCE
BUT THEY ARE ACTUALLY WORKING
00:15:57.33\00:16:00.36
AND CONSOLIDATING SOME OF THE
MEMBERSHIP THAT WE HAD IN THE
00:16:00.36\00:16:06.03
KOLE AND MADWADDI LANGUAGE
GROUPS THERE IN PAKISTAN.
00:16:06.03\00:16:08.03
THEY LIVE MAINLY OUT TOWARD
THE INDIAN BORDER IN VERY DESERT
00:16:08.03\00:16:12.93
AREAS AND SO THEY
ARE QUITE ISOLATED.
00:16:12.93\00:16:15.90
BUT NO, THINGS HAVE HAPPENED
MOST RECENTLY JUST WEEKS AGO-WE
00:16:15.90\00:16:22.16
HAD THIS CHURCH
BOMBING IN PESHAWAR.
00:16:22.16\00:16:24.70
NOW REMEMBER, ISLAM LOOKS BACK
TO THTHCRUSADES WITH, I MEAN,
00:16:24.70\00:16:32.00
THIS IS
CENTURIES, THIS IS MILLENIA.
00:16:32.00\00:16:33.46
I MEAN THEY LOOK BACK AT THAT AS
A DIRECT ATTACK BY CHRISTIANS ON
00:16:33.46\00:16:38.83
MUSLIMS. AND SO, THOSE MEMORIES-
WE NEVER USE THE WORD CRUSADE,
00:16:38.83\00:16:44.90
O.K.; I TRY TO JUST BLOCK THAT
OUT AND NOT SPEAK THOSE WORDS.
00:16:49.76\00:16:52.03
PEOPLE SPEAK OF EVANGELISTIC
CRUSADES, AND SO FORTH, WE DON'T
00:16:52.03\00:16:55.83
DO THAT.
00:16:55.83\00:16:56.83
NO,NO, I UNDERSTAND.
00:16:56.83\00:16:58.36
THAT'S THE SAME AS USING THE
WORD JIHAD WHICH TODAY HAS
BECOME TO US A THREAT,
00:16:58.36\00:17:03.63
YES.
00:17:03.63\00:17:05.03
BUT, ANYWAY WHENEVER THE
WEST ENGAGES THE EAST ISLAM
00:17:05.03\00:17:12.26
MILITARILY WHETHER IT BE IN
IRAQ, AFGHANISTAN, WHEREVER-THIS
IS SEEN AS A THREAT.
00:17:12.26\00:17:14.86
THIS IS SEEN AS RETALIATION AND
OFTEN THINGS ARE PORTRAYED IN A
00:17:14.86\00:17:21.26
MUSLIM CHRISTIAN WAY BUT TO MAKE
THIS SHORT, THE SHIAS HAD BEEN
00:17:21.26\00:17:26.23
ATTACKED TIME AND AGAIN
AND THEIR BUSSES BLOWN UP.
00:17:26.23\00:17:29.60
THEY WERE GOING ON PILGRIMAGES
TO IRAN, THE CITY OF QUETA WHICH
00:17:29.60\00:17:35.30
IS THE ENTRYWAY TO IRAN ALSO A
BIG HIDEOUT FOR AL-QAIDA AND SO
00:17:35.30\00:17:41.16
FORTH. THEY HAD A BOMBING
THERE BLEW OUT 90-95 PEOPLE.
00:17:41.16\00:17:44.50
KILLED THEM
IMMEDIATELY, MANY INJURIES.
00:17:44.50\00:17:47.80
AND SO EVERY NOW AND THEN
YOU'LL HAVE A CONFRONTATION.
00:17:47.80\00:17:54.43
WHAT HAPPENED BACK ABOUT EARLY
THIS YEAR, 2013 IS THAT TWO
00:17:54.43\00:18:00.56
FRIENDS-A MUSLIM AND A CHRISTIAN
WERE SITTING NEXT TO A CHRISTIAN
00:18:04.26\00:18:08.63
COMMUNITY AND DRINKING.
00:18:08.63\00:18:09.90
NOW, IT WAS O.K.
00:18:09.90\00:18:10.90
FOR THE
CHRISTIAN TO DRINK LEGALLY.
00:18:10.90\00:18:12.90
IT WAS NOT O.K.
00:18:12.90\00:18:13.90
FOR THE MUSLIM TO DRINK.
00:18:13.90\00:18:15.10
THE TWO OF THEM GOT DRUNK.
00:18:15.10\00:18:16.53
THERE IS A BLASPHEMY LAW
IN PAKISTAN -IF YOU REVILE THE
00:18:16.53\00:18:21.90
PROPHET, IF YOUR REVILE ISLAM
OR THE QURAN SHARIF, IF YOU SAY
00:18:21.90\00:18:28.73
SOMETHING THAT IS
BLASPHEMOUOUTHEN THE PENALTY, IF
YOU ARE CONVICTED, IS DEATH.
00:18:28.73\00:18:34.43
THAT IS A VERY POLITICAL
THING THERE TODAY BECAUSE PEOPLE
00:18:34.43\00:18:38.80
SETTLE SCORES BY TELLING LIES.
00:18:38.80\00:18:41.03
I MEAN, IF YOU ACCUSE SOMEBODY
AND YOU HAVE A COUPLE OF
00:18:41.03\00:18:44.23
WITNESSES THAT
WILL STAND WITH YOU.
00:18:44.23\00:18:45.23
YOU CAN MAKE IT
STICK AGAINST SOMEONE.
00:18:45.23\00:18:47.73
AND BY THE WAY, IT'S
BEEN USED BY MUSLIM ON MUSLIM.
00:18:47.73\00:18:51.53
BUT IN THIS CASE,
THEY BOTH GOT DRUNK.
00:18:51.53\00:18:55.03
THE MUSLIM LEFT THE ENGAGEMENT,
THEY ARGUED AND THIS TIME WITH
00:18:55.03\00:18:59.63
HIS FRIEND AND HE WENT AND
SPREAD THE STORY THAT THERE WAS
00:18:59.63\00:19:03.90
BLASPHEMY THAT TOOK PLACE.
00:19:03.90\00:19:05.33
THAT EVENING, FRIDAY EVENING,
A CROWD MOVED THROUGH THE
00:19:05.33\00:19:10.76
COMMUNITY WITH AXES AND
DIFFERENT LOCAL WEAPONS AND THEY
TOLD THE CHRISTIANS, "YOU GET
00:19:10.76\00:19:17.50
OUT OR ELSE YOU
WILL BE MURDERED."
00:19:17.50\00:19:19.30
THAT NIGHT AND THE NEXT DAY THEY
WENT THROUGH AND THEY TORCHED
00:19:19.30\00:19:22.73
THE COMMUNITY OF SOME 3000
PEOPLE ALMOST ALL CHRISTIANS.
00:19:22.73\00:19:25.06
THERE WERE CATHOLICS, THERE WERE
ADVENTISTS THERE AND THE ENTIRE
00:19:25.06\00:19:27.50
COMMUNITY WAS BURNED.
00:19:27.50\00:19:28.93
THE MIRACULOUS THING IS EVEN
THOUGH THE CATHOLIC CHURCH WAS
00:19:28.93\00:19:31.03
COMPLETELY TORCHED, THE STATUES
RIPPED OUT AND SO FORTH, THE
ADVENTIST CHURCH WHICH
00:19:31.03\00:19:37.10
WAS IN A NARROW GULLY, SMALL
BUILDING, HOUSES BOTH SIDES
00:19:42.90\00:19:50.63
BURNED AND THE CHURCH WAS OPENED
AND RANSACKED BUT THE CHRISTMAS
00:19:50.63\00:19:55.86
DECORATIONS FROM CHRISTMAS TIME
A FEW MONTHS BEFORE, STILL HUNG
IN THERE IN THE CHURCH AND
00:19:55.86\00:20:00.20
THE CHURCH WAS NEVER BURNED.
00:20:00.20\00:20:01.33
WOW!
00:20:01.33\00:20:02.70
THERE IT STANDS, THE ONLY
BUILDING THAT SURVIVED IN THIS
00:20:02.70\00:20:08.00
HOLOCAUST. THE
POLICE CAME THE NEXT DAY.
00:20:08.00\00:20:09.83
ACTUALLY,THEY KIND
OF LOOKED THE OTHER WAY.
00:20:09.83\00:20:11.83
THERE WAS A SHAKE UP WITH THE
POLICE AUTHORITIES AND SO FORTH
00:20:11.83\00:20:17.63
BUT BASICALLY, WE COUNT THE
MIRACLES-NO ONE WAS MURDERED AND
THE GOVERNMENT HAD THAT
00:20:17.63\00:20:21.53
COMMUNITY UP AND RUNNING AGAIN;
HOUSES BUILT IN THREE WEEKS
00:20:21.53\00:20:25.76
TIME. HOUSES BUILT?
00:20:25.76\00:20:26.76
HOUSES BUILT IN
THREE WEEKS TIME.
00:20:26.76\00:20:29.13
YOU KNOW, LISTENING TO YOU
GEORGE, AND THE MINISTRY THAT
YOU HAVE DONE AS YOU
00:20:29.13\00:20:35.20
ILLUSTRATED IN THAT PLACE WHERE
YOU WENT TO THE ELDER'S HOME AND
00:20:38.30\00:20:43.50
SO FORTH, HOW IMPORTANT IT IS
FOR WE WHO SERVE JESUS TO BE
SURE WE COMMUNICATE SOMETHING
00:20:43.50\00:20:49.56
OTHER THAN THE CONFLICT OF
CENTURIES OLD EXPERIENCES WITH A
00:20:55.50\00:21:01.53
MESSAGE OF LOVE ABOUT
ACCEPTANCE OF ALL PEOPLE.
00:21:06.83\00:21:11.46
MY EXPERIENCE, WHICH IS VERY,
VERY LIMITED, IS THAT I HAVEN'T
00:21:11.46\00:21:16.63
BEEN ABLE TO TALK ABOUT
JESUS MUCH WITH THESE FOLKS.
00:21:16.63\00:21:21.80
WE TALK ABOUT "OUR GOD"
AND THEIR ACCEPTING OF THAT BUT
00:21:21.80\00:21:28.40
ANYTHING THAT KIND OF MOVES IN
THE DIRECTION OF IDENTITY AS A
CHRISTIAN -THEY HAVE A
00:21:28.40\00:21:34.20
BAD, EXCUSE THE CRUDE, BUT A
BAD TASTE IN THEIR MOUTHS ABOUT
00:21:34.20\00:21:40.43
CHRISTIANS. SO, THTH
CONGREGATION OF PEOPLE MUST HAVE
BEEN ABLE TO COMMUNICATE
00:21:40.43\00:21:46.50
SOMETHING OTHER THAN
TYPICAL CHRISTIANITY.
00:21:48.66\00:21:51.36
YES AND NO.
00:21:51.36\00:21:53.70
O.K.
00:21:53.70\00:21:55.00
I DIDN'T GO DOWN THAT SATURDAY
THAT THE BURNING WAS GOING ON.
00:21:55.00\00:22:00.83
THE PASTOR'S WIFE
WAS WITH ME IN TEARS.
00:22:05.13\00:22:07.86
HER HUSBAND'S
CELL PHONE WAS GONE.
00:22:07.86\00:22:09.86
HE HAD BEEN THERE AND THE THREE
CHILDREN AND THE HUSBAND HAD
00:22:09.86\00:22:17.30
ESCAPED BUT THERE WAS A LOT
OF TENSION IN THAT COMMUNITY.
00:22:17.30\00:22:19.60
ABOUT A WEEK LATER I WENT
THROUGH AND EVEN AT THAT TIME,
IN A COMMUNITY L LE
00:22:19.60\00:22:24.16
THAT, USUALLY I COULD WALK
THROUGH AND SPEAK TO THIS ONE
00:22:24.16\00:22:28.36
AND THAT ONE IRREGARDLESS OF WHO
THEY WERE AND ELICIT A SMILE AND
00:22:28.36\00:22:33.73
A RESPONSE. BUT IT
WAS SULLEN, IT WAS DARK.
00:22:33.73\00:22:39.30
YOU COULD FEEL THAT.
00:22:39.30\00:22:40.96
I BELIEVE THAT GOD HAD HIS HAND
OVER THAT SITUATION TO WHERE, I
00:22:40.96\00:22:47.03
MEAN WHETHER THEY DIDN'T SEE IT
OR WHETHER SOMEBODY MISSED, I
DON'T KNOW BUT I BELIEVE
00:22:50.36\00:22:56.00
THAT GOD INTERVENED IN THAT
CASE TO MAYBE TEACH US A LESSON.
00:22:56.00\00:22:59.90
HOWEVER, WHEN WE GAVE
INSTRUCTIONS TO OUR ADRA
WORKERS, AND BY THTHWAY,Y,
00:22:59.90\00:23:05.46
ADRA DID NOT SUPPORT FINANCIALY
BUT ADRA HELPED WITH MANPOWER.
00:23:05.46\00:23:10.23
ININHE REBUILDING?
00:23:10.23\00:23:11.63
NO, IN THE REFITTING, KIND OF
REOUTFITTING OF THE MEMBERS WHO
00:23:11.63\00:23:17.16
LOST EVERYTHING.
00:23:17.16\00:23:18.16
OH, I SEE.
00:23:18.16\00:23:19.16
O.K.
00:23:19.16\00:23:20.13
BUT AS WE DID THIS OUR
INSTRUCTIONSNSERE CLEAR.
00:23:20.13\00:23:23.40
IF YOU RUN INTO CATHOLICS,
YOU DO THE SAME FOR THEM AS YOU
00:23:23.40\00:23:30.63
WOULD FOR A PROTESTANT.
00:23:30.63\00:23:32.16
IF YOU RUN INTO A MUSLIM THAT'S
BEEN BURNED OUT, BY MISTAKE YOU
00:23:32.16\00:23:38.30
MAKE SURE THAT YOU
CARE FOR THEIR NEEDS.
00:23:38.30\00:23:40.16
AND SO IT WAS DONE IRRESPECTIVE
OF ANY COMMUNAL, ANY RELIGIOUS
00:23:40.16\00:23:46.00
BACKGROUND OR AFFILIATION.
00:23:46.00\00:23:47.33
I THINK THIS IS WHAT
SPEAKS IN A PRACTICAL WAY.
00:23:47.33\00:23:50.60
THAT'S BEAUTIFUL.
00:23:50.60\00:23:52.06
THE MEMBERS, BY THE WAY,
THE GOVERNMENT BEGAN BRINGING IN
00:23:52.06\00:23:58.23
COOKED RICE, A LOT OF FOOD.
00:23:58.23\00:23:59.73
I THINK IT WAS ACTUALLY OVER
SUPPLIED FOR A PERIOD OF TIME
00:23:59.73\00:24:02.60
BUT IT WAS THE MEMBERS WHO BEGAN
THEN BUILDING BRIDGES WITH THESE
PEOPLE WHO HAD BEEN
00:24:02.60\00:24:04.90
THREATENING TO KILL THEM AND
THREATENING, YOU KNOW, TO END
00:24:04.90\00:24:08.46
THEIR LIVES SO I THINK THAT
HAPPENED AFTERWARDS BUT DURING
THE CRISIS ITSELF, IT WAS JUST
00:24:08.46\00:24:15.76
PURE PANIC.
00:24:15.76\00:24:17.23
YOU KNOW, IT SEEMS KIND OF
EVIDENT TO ME IN THE ACCOUNT YOU
00:24:17.23\00:24:23.26
SHARE THAT THESE PRECIOUS,
PRECIOUS BELIEVERS THERE WERE
DIRECTED BY THE SPIRIT OF
00:24:27.76\00:24:33.13
JESUS IN THE WAY THEY RESPONDED
TO THE WHOLE COMMUNITY SO THAT
00:24:33.13\00:24:41.10
IS IT POSSIBLE TO IMAGINE THAT
THAT COMMUNITY IS KIND OF BACK
00:24:41.10\00:24:46.43
TO NORMAL? IN MANY WAYS, YES.
00:24:46.43\00:24:48.03
IN MANY WAYS, YES.
00:24:48.03\00:24:50.43
AND THE CHURCH IS
FUNCTIONING AGAIN?
00:24:50.43\00:24:52.76
THE CHURCH IS FUNCTIONING WELL.
00:24:52.76\00:24:54.16
BY THE WAY, I KIND OF JOKED
WHEN IT WAS ALL OVER BECAUSE THE
00:24:54.16\00:25:02.03
NUMBER OF OPLE THAT APPLIED FOR
AID AS SEVENTH DAY ADVENTISTS
00:25:02.03\00:25:05.76
WAS FAR MORE THAN WE THOUGHT
WE HAD IN THE MEMBERSHIP.
00:25:05.76\00:25:07.76
RIGHT.
00:25:07.76\00:25:09.33
BUT THIS IS ALSO AN INTERESTING
POINT BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT
00:25:09.33\00:25:14.33
THERE ARE MANY, MANY PEOPLE WHO
TRULY CONSIDER THEMSELVES PART
OF FELLOWSHIP WHO MAY
00:25:14.33\00:25:20.66
NOT BE SEEN
REGULARLY AND SO FORTH.
00:25:20.66\00:25:23.03
YET THIS IS WHERE THEY
AFFILIATE, THIS IS WHERE THEIR
00:25:23.03\00:25:27.66
HEARTS ARE. THAT'S A
VERY SIGNIFICANT COMMENT.
00:25:27.66\00:25:30.00
U KNOW, GEORGE, I WOULD LIKE TO
PURSUE THAT SOME MORE WITH YOU.
00:25:30.00\00:25:36.03
WE HAVEN'T EVEN TOUCHED THE
EDUCATIONAL DIMENSION OF YOUR
00:25:36.03\00:25:43.26
WORK, OUR WORK IN PAKISTAN.
00:25:43.26\00:25:44.66
YOU PROBABLY KNOW THAT I'VE HAD
SOME CONNECTION WITH THE GIRLS
00:25:44.66\00:25:51.20
DORMITORY AT YOUR SCHOOL THERE
AND I'D LIKE TO THINK OUT LOUD
WITH YOU ABOUT SOMOMOF
00:25:51.20\00:25:57.80
THOSE THINGS AND THE PLACE OF
EDUCATION AND MEDICAL WORK IN AN
00:25:57.80\00:26:03.20
ENVIRONMENT SUCH AS YOU
EXPERIENCED THERE IN PAKISTAN.
00:26:03.20\00:26:05.76
I CAN ONLY SAY TO YOU ON BEHALF
OF OUR WHOLE GOSPEL OUTREACH
00:26:05.76\00:26:10.23
FAMILY, SO GLAD
TO SEE YOU GEORGE.
00:26:10.23\00:26:11.80
GLAD FOR WHAT THE LORD HAS DONE
IN YOU, THROUGH YOU, FOR YOU IN
00:26:11.80\00:26:16.06
YOUR ASSIGNMENT THERE AND THANK
YOU FOR YOUR LEADERSHIP IN
GOSPEL OUTREACH TOO.
00:26:16.06\00:26:20.20
THANK YOU.
00:26:20.20\00:26:21.20
GLAD YOU ARE BACK.
00:26:21.20\00:26:22.63
AND AGAIN, I'M GLAD FOR
00:26:22.63\00:26:27.30
ALL OF YOU FOLKS WHO
ARE A PART OF THIS GOSPEL
00:26:22.63\00:26:27.30
OUTREACH FAMILY.
00:26:27.30\00:26:29.26
I LOOK FORWARD TO THE
OPPORTUNITIES TO BRING MY
FRIENDS ON THESE PROGRAMS
00:26:29.26\00:26:35.23
SO THAT YOU CAN HAVE THE MOST
CURRENT INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT'S
00:26:35.23\00:26:41.16
HAPPENING IN THE WORLD AS FAR AS
