LOTS OF BANGLADESH CULTURE THERE 03:59 AND IN THE FIRST VIDEO THAT I AM GOING TO SHOW IT 04:03 WILL TELL YOU A LITTLE OF THE HISTORY OF TRIPURA AND 04:08 WHAT IT IS LIKE NOW. 04:10 SO, SHALL WE SEE THIS NOW? 04:11 I WOULD LOVE TO GO. 04:12 THIS IS THE PALACE WHERE THE LAST KING OF TRIPURA 04:19 LIVED. 04:20 WHEN HE DIED THE QUEEN GAVE THIS 4000 SQUARE MILE 04:25 KINGDOM TO INDIA. 04:27 THIS WAS HIS SUMMER HOUSE WITH THREE MILLION PEOPLE 04:32 IT IS NOW INDIA'S THIRD SMALLEST STATE. 04:35 IT IS SURROUNDED ON THREE SIDES BY BANGLADESH SO 04:40 WHEN HINDU BANGLADESHI REFUGEES SEEK TO CROSS THE 04:44 POROUS BORDERS, THERE WAS FRICTION WITH THE 04:47 INDIGENOUS TRIBES. 04:50 THIS BEAUTIFUL PARK IS A SYMBOL OF THE PEACE THAT 04:54 NOW EXISTS. 04:56 THERE ARE 19 MAIN TRIBES IN TRIPURA PLUS MANY SUB 05:00 TRIBES SO A TRIBAL ADMINISTRATION AGENCY HAS 05:04 BEEN SET UP IN CHUMELOW TO PROMOTE PEACE. 05:09 MANY TOURISTS COME TO ENJOY THE BEAUTY. 05:12 I WATCHED THIS BUS ARRIVE AND EVEN BEFORE THEY HAD 05:15 SEEN THE PARK THEY STARTED TO CELEBRATE AND DANCE. 05:20 WE HAD NO CHURCH GROUP ESTABLISHED IN CHUMELOW SO 05:23 GOSPEL OUTREACH EMPOYED A WORKER, GAVINDA DEBURMA. 05:29 WHEN WE VISITED HIM, HE HAD ALREADY HAD TWO 05:33 FAMILIES BAPTIZED AND ANOTHER TWO YOUNG PEOPLE 05:36 WOULD BE BAPTIZED TODAY. 05:38 ON OUR WAY TO THE LOCAL POND, WE STOPPED TO VISIT 05:43 WITH SOME OF THE TOWN

RELATIVES AND GOT CAUGHT UP IN AN 08:46 EVANGELISTIC MEETINGS WITH THIS GOSPEL OUTREACH 08:51 WORKER AND HE NEVER DID MAKE A DECISION TO FOLLOW 08:55 JESUS BUT WHEN HE GOT BACK TO HIS VILLAGE HE BEGAN 08:58 THINKING ABOUT IT AND HE THOUGHT, I NEED TO GET HIM 09:01 TO COME AND HAVE MEETINGS IN MY VILLAGE. 09:04 SO, HE FOUND THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER, BROUGHT 09:07 HIM TO HIS VILLAGE AND WE'LL TELL THE STORY ABOUT 09:10 IT NOW. 09:11 PERFECT. 09:12 FORTUNATELY, THE ROADS IN TRIPURA, INDIA ARE 09:18 IMPROVING. 09:19 THERE IS ALWAYS SOMEONE PATCHING UP THE CRUMBLING 09:23 ROADS. 09:25 IF IT'S NOT

VILLAGE WAS STAYING WITH SOME 09:56 RELATIVES IN THE VILLAGE OF CHARUMBA WHERE SOME 10:00 EVANGELISTIC MEETINGS WERE BEING HELD. 10:03 HE NEVER DID MAKE A DECISION TO BECOME A 10:06 FOLLOWER OF JESUS CHRIST BUT HE KEPT THINKING ABOUT 10:10 IT AND LATER HE WENT TO FIND THE GOSPEL OUTREACH 10:15 EVANGELIST AND ASKED HIM TO COME TO GAMARKA 10:19 VILLAGE. 10:20 THEY VISITED TOGETHER; THEY HELD MEETINGS AND HE 10:24 TOGETHER WITH 21 OTHERS WAS BAPTIZED. 10:28 AFTER MORE MEETINGS, ANOTHER 16 WERE BAPTIZED 10:32 AND EARLY THIS YEAR ANOTHER 12. 10:34 TODAY, FOUR MORE ARE TO BE BAPTIZED AND JOIN THE 10:39 CHURCH. 10:40 NOT ONLY ARE ADULTS BEING BAPTIZED BUT THESE BABIES 10:44 ARE ALSO BEING DEDICATED TO A NEW LIFE IN GOD'S 10:48 FAMILY. 10:50 THE NEW CHURCH STARTED TO BUILD A PLACE OF WORSHIP 10:54 AND THE LOCAL CONFERENCE GAVE THEM MONEY FOR A TIN 10:57 ROOF. 10:58 WHAT A PRIVILEGE TO SEE THE CANDIDATES EXAMINED 11:02 AND BAPTIZED BY PASTOR ZAMINGA, OUR DISTRICT 11:06 LEADER. 11:08 I SPOTTED ONE OF THE MEN IN THE VILLAGE WEARING A 11:12 HARRIS TWEAD SPORTS COAT. 11:15 NOW HARRIS TWEAD IS A SPECIAL CLOTH WOVEN IN 11:19 SCOTLAND. 11:20 I TRIED IT ON. 11:22 HARRIS TWEAD JACKET. 11:28 IT'S VERY NICE. 11:36 I COULD BUY ONE OF THESE ON OXFORD STREET DOWN IN 11:40 LONDON IF I WANTED. 11:42 ALTHOUGH THEY WOULD COST ABOUT 500 POUNDS. 11:45 HE BOUGHT IT FOR $2. 11:47 FOR TWO DOLLARS, HE COULD HAVE BOUGHT ONE OF THESE 11:52 PARROTS WHICH WERE FOR SALE. 11:55 I VISITED SOME OF THE HOMES WITH OUR GOSPEL 11:57 OUTREACH WORKER. 11:58 WE SHARED SOME CANDY TOGETHER; WE LISTENED TO 12:02 SOME LAST WORDS FROM THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER. 12:04 I WONDER WHERE OUR GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER WILL START 12:14 WORK NEXT? 12:16 ONE OF THE YOUNG PEOPLE IN THE VILLAGE HAS ALREADY 12:19 MADE A

HOLY SPIRIT DOES. 12:55 YES. 12:56 SO, TELL US ABOUT THE THOUSAND MISSIONARY 12:57 MOVEMENT. 12:58 WELL, THE THOUSAND MISSIONARY MOVEMENT IS A 12:59 MOVEMENT THAT WAS STARTED IN THE PHILIPPINES AND 13:01 THEY TRAIN STUDENTS, YOUNG PEOPLE, TO -THEY GIVE THEM 13:02 A COUPLE OF MONTHS TRAINING AND THEN THEY 13:04 SEND THEM OUT TO START A NEW CHURCH IN AN UNENTERED 13:05 PLACE JUST LIKE GOSPEL OUTREACH AND SO, SO WE 13:06 HAVE -IT WAS A KOREAN MAN THAT STARTED IT. 13:08 KOREAN PROFESSOR AT THE COLLEGE IN THE 13:09 PHILIPPINES. 13:10 HE WAS THE ONE THAT STARTED IT AND NOW IT HAS 13:11 EXPANDED TO OTHER COUNTRIES AS WELL BECAUSE 13:12 EVEN IN BANGLADESH WE HAVE A THOUSAND MISSION 13:14 MOVEMENT COMPANY THERE AND THEY TRAIN THEM IN 13:15 BANGLADESH TOO. 13:16 AND AGAIN, THE RIPPLE EFFECT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT 13:17 WORKING THROUGH ALL OF OUR LIVES. 13:18 YES, YES, WELL, JOHN THANK YOU AND WE WANT TO SAY 13:20 THANK YOU TO YOU OUR VIEWERS AND ALL OF YOU WHO 13:21 ARE PRAYING FOR GOSPEL OUTREACH, FOR YOU WHO ARE 13:25 DONATING AND WE HAVE SOME INFORMATIO TO SHARE WITH 13:29 YOU. 13:30 Why hasn't Jesus come? 13:32 It's because we have a job to do, one that His return 13:36 depends on. 13:37 The Bible tells us that Christ will come after the 14:07 Gospel has been preached in ALL the world. 14:10 The world's population exceeds 7 billion, but 3 14:15 billion people still need to hear about Jesus' love. 14:19 NINETY-SEVEN percent of the unreached people live 14:22 in the area from 10 to 40 degrees north of the 14:25 equator- from West Africa, the Middle East, India, 14:30 China, to Japan. 14:32 (may show visually instead). 14:33 Gospel Outreach has a unique approach. 14:36 With the support of people like you, we sponsor local 14:40 gospel workers in more than fifty countries. 14:44 Because they know the language, culture and 14:46 religions of their neighbors, they face fewer 14:49 challenges than foreign missionaries would. 14:51 Together with you, we fund more than two thousand 14:57 Bible workers, but more are needed. 15:00 Let's reach the unreached with the saving power of 15:04 God's love! 15:05 Join us! 15:08 Sponsor a Bible worker. 15:13 Donate. 15:14 Pray. 15:15 AND HERE AT "ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS" WE TAKE THE 15:18 GREAT COMMISSION TO GO, GO TO ALL THE WORLD AND WE 15:22 ARE SPECIFICALLY LOOKING AT THE 10/40 WINDOW WHICH 15:24 IS 10 TO 40 DEGREES NORTH OF THE EQUATOR AND WE'RE 15:27 IN THE TIME OF TECHNOLOGY AND WE ARE TRYING TO MAKE 15:31 SURE THAT WE ARE COMMUNICATING WITH YOU AND 15:34 WITH EVERYBODY SO THAT THEY CAN KNOW MORE ABOUT 15:36 GOSPEL OUTREACH. 15:37 WE HAVE A NEWSLETTER THAT WE WOULD BE HAPPY TO SEND 15:39 TO YOU. 15:40 WE WILL SEND IT TO YOU. 15:41 WE NEED YOUR MAILING ADDRESS SO, IF YOU WOULD 15:43 LIKE TO

17:42 PERFECT. 17:43 WE WERE HELD UP ON THE ROAD BY A POLITICAL 17:49 PARADE. 17:51 THESE LADIES ARE COMMUNIST PARTY SUPPORTERS FROM A 17:55 LOCAL PARTY ALWAYS WINS. 17:58 THEY ARE LOOKING FOR A BETTER LIFE. 17:59 THIS PRIEST AND HIS WIFE LIVE BY THE SIDE OF THE 18:00 ROAD. 18:01 I'VE STOPPED BY A FEW TIMES TO SAY HELLO. 18:02 LAST YEAR I STOPPED TO SHOW MY DAUGHTER HIS 18:04 WIFE'S LONG HAIR. 18:05 IT ALWAYS AMAZES ME - IT'S NEVER BEEN CUT. 18:06 THEY ARE LOOKING FOR A BETTER LIFE. 18:07 THESE LADIES WE PASSED AT THE ROADSIDE MARKET ARE 18:24 JUST TRYING TO SURVIVE FROM DAY TO DAY. 18:28 THIS LADY WANTS A BETTER LIFE. 18:31 THIS IS TRIPURA-A SMALL STATE IN THE NORTHEAST 18:37 CORNER OF INDIA. 18:39 WE ARE DRIVING TO CALLIGAN TO SEE GOSPEL OUTREACH 18:43 WORKER AMOYA WHO IS INTRODUCING PEOPLE TO A 18:49 BETTER LIFE. 18:51 THIS IS THE PRAYING VILLAGE. 18:53 WE VISITED HERE BEFORE AND WE'VE WATCHED THE NEW 18:57 MEMBERS VISITING EACH HOME TO PRAY WITH EACH FAMILY. 19:01 THEY'VE HAD A NEW CHURCH BUILT FOR THEM BY 19:05 MARANATHA SO, THEY'VE CARRIED THE MATERIALS FROM 19:08 THE OLD CHURCH TO THE NEXT VILLAGE AND THEY ARE 19:11 HELPING THEM BUILD A NEW CHURCH. 19:14 WE STOPPED TO SEE A NEIGHBOR TO THE NEW CHURCH 19:15 AND I ENJOYED A PERFECTLY RIPENED PAPAYA. 19:26 IN ONE OF THE HOUSES THEY VISITED, THERE WAS A MAN 19:29 WHO WAS POSSESSED BY AN EVIL SPIRIT. 19:32 GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER PRAYED, MASSAGED THE MAN. 19:37 HE FELT A LITTLE BETTER BUT THE NEXT DAY HE FELT 19:40 WORSE. 19:41 THEY PRAYED AGAIN. 19:42 THEY ORDERED THE SPIRIT TO LEAVE. 19:45 WELL, THEY DID THIS EVERY DAY FOR A WEEK UNTIL THE 19:49 MAN WAS BACK IN HIS RIGHT MIND. 19:53 TODAY, HE WAS TO BE BAPTIZED. 19:56 WHAT AN IDYLLIC SPOT FOR A BAPTISM. 20:00 WE EXAMINED THE CANDIDATES. 20:03 WE SET OFF DOWN TO THE POND. 20:06 WE HAD TO WAIT OUR TURN BUT NOBODY MINDED. 20:09 NINE YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE MADE A DECISION TO FOLLOW 20:13 JESUS IN BAPTISM. 20:15 ONE OF THE CANDIDATES HAD BEEN A SEVENTH DAY 20:18 ADVENTIST BEFORE BUT HE SLIPPED BACK INTO A HINDU 20:22 LIFESTYLE BUT HE ALWAYS FELT UNEASY. 20:26 HE REALIZED THAT WITHOUT JESUS CHRIST THERE IS NO 20:30 BETTER LIFE. 20:31 LET'S REMEMBER AMOYA, OUR GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER IN 20:34 THE VILLAGE OF CALLIGAN AS HE CONTINUES TO VISIT AND 20:45 PRAY. 20:46 LET'S SUPPORT OUR GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS IN 20:49 TRIPURA AS THEY LEAD PEOPLE TO A

THE WAY 21:27 AND THAT'S WHERE GOD USES US AND THAT CHURCH 21:32 BEAUTIFUL CHURCH. 21:33 YES, YOU SEE MARANATHA CAME, UH HUH, BUILT THEM A 21:35 NEW CHURCH SO THEY ARE USING THE MATERIAL FROM 21:38 THAT CHURCH TO BUILD A NEW CHURCH IN THE NEXT 21:40 VILLAGE. 21:41 AND THAT'S WHAT GOSPEL OUTREACH IS ALL ABOUT. 21:43 YES. 21:44 ONCE WE ESTABLISH A CHURCH IN ONE VILLAGE THEN WE 21:46 MOVE TO THE

ABOUT WHY THERE IS SO MANY HINDU GODS IN 21:59 INDIA . 22:00 LET'S WATCH IT. 22:01 FOR EVERY HINDU FESTIVAL A NEW GOD IS PRODUCED AND 22:13 WORSHIPED. 22:14 EVERY MONTH A NEW ONE IS WORSHIPED. 22:17
