Welcome to another
Edition of Bible Alive.
00:00:18.27\00:00:20.28
I'm really excited today
00:00:20.31\00:00:21.63
because we're going to
talk more about the Bible
00:00:21.66\00:00:24.52
and how you can
study that Bible.
00:00:24.55\00:00:26.64
And we've got a
special Bible today
00:00:26.67\00:00:28.41
that I'm- I'm
pretty proud of actually.
00:00:28.44\00:00:30.28
And before we get started though
00:00:30.31\00:00:32.10
I want to have you
meet a friend of mine
00:00:32.13\00:00:33.67
that I've known for probably,
I think around three years,
00:00:33.70\00:00:36.19
Randy Elliot.
00:00:36.22\00:00:37.19
Randy, I'm so glad that
you're here with me today.
00:00:37.20\00:00:38.80
It's good to be
with you, Dwight.
00:00:38.83\00:00:40.04
And, Randy, now, we met about
3 years ago in a- at a place.
00:00:40.07\00:00:43.71
You called me up and you're
00:00:43.74\00:00:45.81
originally from
Thomas Nelson. Correct?
00:00:45.84\00:00:48.03
Correct. Nashville, Tennessee.
00:00:48.06\00:00:49.27
Nashville, Tennessee.
00:00:49.30\00:00:50.43
Now, at Nelson Publishing,
00:00:50.46\00:00:52.32
which if I'm not mistaken,
00:00:52.35\00:00:53.69
that's the largest Religious
Bible Distributor in the World.
00:00:53.72\00:00:57.03
Is that true?
00:00:57.50\00:00:58.47
It is. Thomas
Nelson's the largest
00:00:58.48\00:01:00.70
Bible Publisher in the World
00:01:00.73\00:01:02.16
and largest Inspirational
Book Publisher in the World.
00:01:02.19\00:01:05.00
And about the sixth or seventh
00:01:06.39\00:01:08.56
largest
Publisher of all Publishers
00:01:08.59\00:01:10.56
Wow!
00:01:10.59\00:01:11.56
as well.
00:01:11.57\00:01:12.54
of all Publishers
00:01:12.55\00:01:13.52
So, they are- and I've been
there, they're a pretty good
00:01:13.53\00:01:14.72
size.
00:01:14.75\00:01:15.72
Yeh.
00:01:15.73\00:01:16.70
But their- their big marketing
is Christian Books and Bibles.
00:01:16.71\00:01:19.20
Yep
00:01:19.24\00:01:20.21
And I'll never
forget when you called me
00:01:20.22\00:01:22.54
because I've been
working with- with Thomas Nelson
00:01:22.57\00:01:24.81
to try to get a new
King James Bible out
00:01:24.84\00:01:26.98
for these Bibles for
Africa which many of our viewing
00:01:27.01\00:01:29.78
audience knows
about and has heard about.
00:01:29.81\00:01:32.88
And you called me up because
00:01:32.91\00:01:34.72
you had seen a file
about Remnant Publications.
00:01:34.75\00:01:38.54
In fact, I think I asked you
what made you after all these
00:01:38.57\00:01:41.70
files because you were in
the- you were the Vice President
00:01:41.73\00:01:44.27
of the Marketing Division
00:01:44.30\00:01:45.45
And you saw a file that
said Remnant Publications,
00:01:45.48\00:01:47.99
and you shared with me a story,
00:01:48.02\00:01:49.96
I don't know if
you want to share that
00:01:49.99\00:01:51.03
Yeh
00:01:51.06\00:01:52.03
a little bit.
00:01:52.04\00:01:53.01
I'd be happy to.
00:01:53.02\00:01:53.99
Yeh, my role is really
Vice President of the Ministry
00:01:54.00\00:01:54.97
Division, which
basically did two things.
00:01:54.98\00:01:56.97
If you're an
Author of Thomas Nelson,
00:01:57.00\00:01:58.28
by way of your Author agreement,
00:01:58.31\00:02:00.44
you got to purchase whatever
Book or Bible was published
00:02:00.47\00:02:04.05
and use it in your
speaking or Ministry.
00:02:04.08\00:02:06.14
And so I had the privilege of
working with some of America's
00:02:06.17\00:02:09.47
best Ministry Organizations
00:02:09.50\00:02:11.02
Yes
00:02:11.05\00:02:12.02
who were leading Authors,
00:02:12.03\00:02:13.00
like Charles
Stanley and John MacArthur
00:02:13.01\00:02:14.45
and David Jeremiah
00:02:14.48\00:02:15.45
Yeh
00:02:15.46\00:02:16.43
and D. James Kennedy,
00:02:16.44\00:02:17.41
all these wonderful
Communicators, got us inspired
00:02:17.42\00:02:19.62
to serve them and
their Organizations
00:02:19.65\00:02:22.78
with support and use of
their own Book or Bible,
00:02:22.81\00:02:26.33
Yes
00:02:26.36\00:02:27.33
as well as creating
resources for Ministry,
00:02:27.34\00:02:29.49
Television, and Radio,
and just ways product can meet
00:02:29.52\00:02:34.21
needs in the lives of others.
00:02:34.24\00:02:35.56
And as Vice
President of the Division,
00:02:35.59\00:02:39.11
I inherited some
responsibilities that included
00:02:39.14\00:02:41.85
some files that you referred to.
00:02:41.88\00:02:44.86
And you know, for me, the-
my heartbeat has always been to
00:02:44.89\00:02:48.17
gleefully chase
after God and you know,
00:02:48.20\00:02:51.58
I love all the great
Books that we've published
00:02:51.61\00:02:53.82
and you know, the reality is,
00:02:53.85\00:02:55.59
the most important
resource is the Word of God and
00:02:55.62\00:02:59.58
Yes
00:02:59.61\00:03:00.58
and I love any Ministry that-
that's the hub of their wheel.
00:03:00.59\00:03:04.40
And- and you know, the gift
Books and the inspirational,
00:03:04.43\00:03:07.65
inspired Books that we
have published, are great.
00:03:07.68\00:03:11.03
And these are kind of
spokes of the wheel but
00:03:11.06\00:03:12.33
Yeh
00:03:12.36\00:03:13.33
but the hub of the wheel
is always the Bible for me
00:03:13.34\00:03:14.50
Yes
00:03:14.53\00:03:15.50
and in looking at the- the
file in Remnant that I saw,
00:03:15.51\00:03:19.50
I saw who- who is this Ministry
that's distributing hundreds
00:03:19.53\00:03:23.72
of thousands of
Bibles to Africa,
00:03:23.75\00:03:25.80
and that just really
made me very curious.
00:03:25.83\00:03:29.62
And the reason,
frankly, is, it's a lot easier
00:03:29.65\00:03:34.70
to participate and partner
where God is already at work.
00:03:34.73\00:03:39.27
Amen.
00:03:39.30\00:03:40.27
And not having to
artificially manufacture
00:03:40.28\00:03:41.99
Yes
00:03:42.02\00:03:42.99
and try to you know,
make something happen
00:03:43.00\00:03:45.09
when God is clearly visible.
00:03:45.12\00:03:47.25
And to me, that was a good sign
that God was at work at Remnant
00:03:47.28\00:03:50.49
and I was curious to
see what he was up to.
00:03:50.52\00:03:52.40
And so, you were kind
enough to invite me to come
00:03:52.43\00:03:54.70
and I wanted to hear
what God was up to here
00:03:54.73\00:03:57.27
and how the Word of
God is being lifted up
00:03:57.30\00:03:59.22
in such a significant way
through these inexpensive Bibles
00:03:59.25\00:04:02.38
that are being
distributed around the Globe.
00:04:02.41\00:04:03.91
And that led to
our just brainstorming
00:04:03.94\00:04:07.70
and opportunities to talk about
00:04:07.73\00:04:09.25
how Thomas Nelson
might come alongside you
00:04:09.28\00:04:11.20
Yes.
00:04:11.23\00:04:12.20
to create a Study
Bible that might be
00:04:12.21\00:04:15.56
another way of adding
to these great Commentaries
00:04:17.29\00:04:19.91
that we've done with Charles
Stanley and John MacArthur.
00:04:19.94\00:04:22.78
I mean, we've done
wonderful Study Bibles
00:04:22.81\00:04:25.36
with some of the best
inspired Bible Teachers.
00:04:25.39\00:04:28.21
And I thought why
not do one with you
00:04:28.24\00:04:31.43
and the works of E G White.
00:04:31.46\00:04:33.24
Yes
00:04:33.27\00:04:34.24
And- and so that's
how that all started.
00:04:34.25\00:04:36.31
So it was a- it was a real
00:04:36.34\00:04:37.50
It was definitely a God thing
because that was way bigger
00:04:37.53\00:04:40.40
than either one of us.
00:04:40.43\00:04:41.44
But He gave us
00:04:41.47\00:04:42.44
Yes
00:04:42.45\00:04:43.42
the Vision
00:04:43.43\00:04:44.40
and there it is on the table
00:04:44.41\00:04:45.38
which is just a thrill for me.
00:04:45.39\00:04:46.91
We love to get the Bible out
00:04:46.94\00:04:48.18
and- and get people to
understand it because thats for
00:04:48.21\00:04:51.32
Bibles for Africa.
00:04:51.35\00:04:52.56
and then we- we wanted-
00:04:52.60\00:04:53.78
we were doing King
James and I love King James.
00:04:53.81\00:04:55.75
My Kids know the
Scripture songs by King James
00:04:55.78\00:04:58.17
and I've read King
James for most of my life.
00:04:58.20\00:05:01.17
But Thomas Nelson was the
one that came out with a- with a
00:05:01.20\00:05:05.38
New King James
00:05:05.41\00:05:06.38
Yes
00:05:06.39\00:05:07.36
and what I didn't know
00:05:07.37\00:05:08.34
and- and I don't think a lot
of the Viewers really understand
00:05:08.35\00:05:10.07
this, that the first
King James came out in 1611
00:05:10.10\00:05:14.30
and there's been
basically 6 revisions because
00:05:14.33\00:05:17.47
your new King James that
Thomas Nelson came out with in-
00:05:17.50\00:05:20.48
was it in the late
70's or early 80's?
00:05:20.51\00:05:22.58
80's, yeh.
00:05:22.61\00:05:23.58
Was actually the 6th revision
of the King James Bible.
00:05:24.22\00:05:26.84
Correct.
00:05:26.87\00:05:27.84
And so it wasn't just
like the King James and then
00:05:27.85\00:05:30.30
your New King James.
00:05:30.33\00:05:31.30
It was actually 5
different revisions
00:05:31.33\00:05:33.99
from 1611 to the New King James.
00:05:34.02\00:05:37.05
And it's- and it's
always so that the people
00:05:37.08\00:05:39.57
can understand the
language of their day.
00:05:39.60\00:05:42.21
It's not a paraphrase,
00:05:42.24\00:05:43.64
it's an actual
translation of the Scriptures.
00:05:43.67\00:05:47.38
Uhh hmm,Yeh.
There's only really two ways
00:05:47.41\00:05:49.31
you can translate a Bible.
00:05:49.34\00:05:50.42
OK
00:05:50.45\00:05:51.42
And it's either a
dynamic equivalence
00:05:51.43\00:05:52.81
Which means?
00:05:52.84\00:05:53.81
or a complete equivalence.
00:05:53.84\00:05:54.85
Dynamic equivalence is
whatever you thought it meant
00:05:54.88\00:05:57.93
OK
00:05:57.96\00:05:58.93
in the original language,
00:05:58.94\00:05:59.91
you convey it
in modern language.
00:05:59.92\00:06:02.33
OK
00:06:02.36\00:06:03.33
Well, that allows for
int- some interpretation
00:06:03.34\00:06:05.44
on who you- who's saying
what they thought it meant.
00:06:05.47\00:06:08.54
OK. Yeh.
00:06:08.57\00:06:09.54
Complete equivalence
means whatever was said
00:06:09.55\00:06:11.07
in the original
Greek, Hebrew or Aramaic,
00:06:11.10\00:06:13.24
you say exactly in the
same way in the modern language.
00:06:13.27\00:06:17.45
OK
00:06:17.48\00:06:18.45
So you're not trying
to interpret or explain,
00:06:18.46\00:06:19.87
you're trying to
say word for word,
00:06:19.90\00:06:22.07
only in the
current English language,
00:06:22.10\00:06:25.13
exactly what was said in
Greek, Hebrew or Aramaic.
00:06:25.16\00:06:28.01
And Thomas Nelson
undertook that process again.
00:06:28.04\00:06:31.23
That was done originally in
00:06:31.26\00:06:33.06
Yes
00:06:33.09\00:06:34.06
1611, which was to go back to
00:06:34.07\00:06:35.04
the original text and I
think it was 120 or 30 Scholars
00:06:35.05\00:06:38.54
spend almost 10 years
translating from the original
00:06:38.85\00:06:42.03
languages again, word for word
and now, English that we speak
00:06:42.06\00:06:46.51
today
00:06:46.54\00:06:47.51
All right
00:06:47.52\00:06:48.49
So you have a
really accurate translation
00:06:48.50\00:06:49.96
tied to the most authentic text
00:06:50.12\00:06:52.52
that the 1611 first authorized
00:06:52.55\00:06:56.51
or appointed version was done
to really bring healing and- and
00:06:56.54\00:07:01.78
unity to the people
and give them the power
00:07:01.81\00:07:05.22
of this
wonderful, eloquent language
00:07:05.25\00:07:07.44
that was spoken back in 1611,
00:07:07.47\00:07:10.25
into a language
for the common man
00:07:10.28\00:07:12.08
Yes.
00:07:12.11\00:07:13.08
and the Bible- putting
the Bible in common language
00:07:13.09\00:07:16.29
for the common man.
00:07:16.32\00:07:17.29
And so here we are
today with the New King James
00:07:17.30\00:07:19.31
and it's the
only natural extension
00:07:19.34\00:07:22.04
of what was done in 1611
00:07:22.07\00:07:23.73
as the
00:07:23.76\00:07:24.73
Wow!
00:07:24.74\00:07:25.71
authorized.
00:07:25.72\00:07:26.69
So if you're a fan
of the King- King James,
00:07:26.70\00:07:28.42
Yes.
00:07:28.45\00:07:29.42
and you want something that
is a little bit more accurate
00:07:29.43\00:07:32.34
to the today's style of speaking
but true to the original
00:07:32.37\00:07:37.57
method of translation
that the King James reflected,
00:07:37.60\00:07:41.76
there really only is one choice
00:07:41.79\00:07:43.44
and that's the New King James.
00:07:43.47\00:07:44.51
Well, I know I really liked it.
00:07:44.54\00:07:45.99
I've studied out of both,
00:07:46.02\00:07:47.06
the King James and
the New King James,
00:07:47.09\00:07:48.63
and worked them
together to see the differences
00:07:48.66\00:07:50.59
but I love the New King James.
00:07:50.62\00:07:52.15
And now, just before
we start on this Bible,
00:07:52.18\00:07:54.90
because I want the Viewers
to see about Study Bibles.
00:07:55.22\00:07:59.34
You are no longer with
Thomas Nelson right now.
00:07:59.37\00:08:03.09
You were the VP but you're-
you're on to different things
00:08:03.12\00:08:06.34
and you've got an endeavor
and I think you were telling me
00:08:06.37\00:08:08.43
before we were on the
camera that you might even have
00:08:08.51\00:08:10.91
a name that you're thinking of
00:08:10.95\00:08:12.47
and you want to help
Ministries do what now?
00:08:12.50\00:08:15.19
Well, God has allowed
me to be champion of others
00:08:15.22\00:08:18.42
Yes
00:08:18.45\00:08:19.42
for his purpose and you know,
in the last 20 years of being
00:08:19.43\00:08:23.78
involved in publishing
I've helped more than 20 Authors
00:08:23.81\00:08:26.55
get their Book published
with Nelson and other Publishers
00:08:26.58\00:08:31.03
and to help Ministries
with promotion strategies
00:08:31.06\00:08:34.58
and really, to
build relationships and
00:08:34.61\00:08:36.70
Yes
00:08:36.73\00:08:37.70
connect an audience
and to the Word of God
00:08:37.71\00:08:39.01
Right
00:08:39.21\00:08:40.18
and to Books and resources that
really can build relationship
00:08:40.19\00:08:44.93
to our Almighty Savior and
help them become good disciples.
00:08:44.96\00:08:48.22
So I've enjoyed
that and- and you know,
00:08:48.25\00:08:51.16
God has a way of leading you out
00:08:51.19\00:08:52.19
in order that He can lead you in
00:08:52.22\00:08:53.49
Yes
00:08:53.52\00:08:54.49
to your future. And
so, my hope is really
00:08:54.50\00:08:57.35
to be able to work with Authors
and Non-Profits that need help
00:08:57.38\00:09:00.87
with publishing, promotion
and product strategies.
00:09:00.90\00:09:04.12
And Lord willing, He'll continue
to allow me to be at the table
00:09:04.15\00:09:07.15
Yes
00:09:07.18\00:09:08.15
and serve worthy Ministries
like Remnant Publications,
00:09:08.16\00:09:11.62
to do work that point to Him.
00:09:11.65\00:09:13.33
Amen
00:09:13.36\00:09:14.33
Well, I want- one more- I want
to ask one more question and
00:09:14.34\00:09:17.34
then we want- I want
to open this Remnant Study
00:09:17.37\00:09:19.12
Sure
00:09:19.15\00:09:20.12
Bible that
00:09:20.13\00:09:21.10
you, I mean, you
were the one that was
00:09:21.11\00:09:22.08
I mean, I think
that's why we're good friends
00:09:22.09\00:09:24.15
because you saw something
that- that could help people
00:09:24.18\00:09:26.56
understand the Bible
like other Open Study Bibles.
00:09:26.59\00:09:28.75
But I've had people ask me,
00:09:28.78\00:09:30.78
what does it mean when
you buy an Open Study Bible
00:09:30.81\00:09:34.47
because you've
had Open Study Bibles,
00:09:34.50\00:09:35.59
Nelson has for years.
00:09:35.62\00:09:36.59
Yeh
00:09:36.60\00:09:37.57
What does it
mean,Open Study Bible?
00:09:37.58\00:09:38.55
What does that mean?
00:09:38.56\00:09:39.53
Well, the Open Study Bible
did- Thomas Nelson did years ago
00:09:39.54\00:09:42.92
was really the first
Study Bible that used Scripture
00:09:42.95\00:09:46.59
to explain Scripture.
00:09:46.62\00:09:48.25
OK
00:09:48.28\00:09:49.25
And that was the real
distinction in the marketplace.
00:09:49.26\00:09:52.15
And that's- and that's we want,
we want Scripture to explain
00:09:52.18\00:09:55.32
Scripture.
00:09:55.35\00:09:56.32
Here a little, there a little.
00:09:56.33\00:09:57.30
Line upon line,
precept upon precept.
00:09:57.31\00:09:58.82
Yeh.
00:09:58.85\00:09:59.82
And so then- then what Nelson
has done throughout the years
00:09:59.83\00:10:02.45
you just mentioned is they've-
they've had this Open Study
00:10:02.48\00:10:05.33
Bible, this New King James and
they've used different Authors
00:10:05.36\00:10:08.99
like Charles
Stanley and MacArthur, and
00:10:09.02\00:10:12.46
I mean, just a host of
them. I don't know how many
00:10:12.49\00:10:14.80
Nelson has done.
00:10:14.83\00:10:15.90
You have any idea how many
Open Study Bibles they've done
00:10:15.93\00:10:19.35
with- with different
Authors as just comments?
00:10:19.38\00:10:21.55
Ugh Hmm
00:10:21.58\00:10:23.22
I mean, I have no idea.
00:10:23.25\00:10:24.51
Well, there's been many.
00:10:24.54\00:10:26.05
Yes
00:10:26.08\00:10:27.05
You know, some of the best Bible
Teachers in- in- in the United
00:10:27.06\00:10:30.57
States have been privileged to
be able to do Bibles with Thomas
00:10:30.60\00:10:34.04
Nelson and create you know,
something that had a long shelf
00:10:34.07\00:10:38.30
life that really captured
the legacy of those great Bible
00:10:38.33\00:10:41.32
Teachers and so putting
some of the works of Ellen White
00:10:41.35\00:10:45.99
into the Remnant Study
Bible, that was you know,
00:10:46.02\00:10:49.09
a terrific legacy
00:10:49.12\00:10:50.09
Yes
00:10:50.11\00:10:51.08
for her Ministry
and all those that
00:10:51.09\00:10:53.16
want a really solid Study
Bible with really great teaching
00:10:53.19\00:10:59.19
reference tools in one Bible.
00:10:59.22\00:11:01.69
So there was a need
and I just thank God
00:11:01.72\00:11:06.02
that we had an opportunity
to work together to create
00:11:06.07\00:11:07.73
the Remnant Study Bible
and bring that for God's glory.
00:11:07.76\00:11:11.19
And he'll- he'll use that in-
00:11:11.22\00:11:12.19
well, He already is.
00:11:12.20\00:11:13.88
Yes
00:11:13.91\00:11:14.88
We've heard so many testimonies
00:11:14.89\00:11:15.86
Yes
00:11:15.87\00:11:16.84
about how the Bible has already
00:11:16.85\00:11:17.82
gone around the World,
00:11:17.83\00:11:18.80
Yes
00:11:18.81\00:11:19.78
which is just you
know, thrilling to me.
00:11:19.79\00:11:20.76
And in a- in a very short
time so far and- and you know,
00:11:20.77\00:11:22.62
we're going to have to be taking
a break here in just a second
00:11:22.65\00:11:24.70
but one thing I want the Viewers
to- to- to realize is that
00:11:24.73\00:11:28.24
Randy called me on the phone,
we we're doing these Bibles
00:11:28.27\00:11:31.14
for Africa, which we still are.
00:11:31.17\00:11:32.39
We're getting hundreds
of thousands of Bibles out
00:11:32.42\00:11:36.04
and, Randy, you
called me and said,
00:11:36.07\00:11:38.46
"I would like to see you "
00:11:38.49\00:11:39.46
You brought down 2
Assistants with you.
00:11:39.47\00:11:41.41
You flew in here to our
00:11:41.44\00:11:42.75
Uhh Hmm
00:11:42.78\00:11:43.75
little humble
place here in Coldwater,
00:11:43.76\00:11:45.78
Michigan and he asked me some
questions that kind of shocked
00:11:45.81\00:11:51.56
me at- at the time, maybe it
shocked me but it took me off
00:11:51.59\00:11:56.18
guard and I- I kind of hate
being off guard but you asked me
00:11:56.21\00:11:59.04
some questions and when we
come back, we're going to share
00:11:59.07\00:12:02.05
that part of the story and how
you almost had to peel me off
00:12:02.08\00:12:04.89
the ceiling when you
asked the final question.
00:12:04.92\00:12:06.56
But we'll get to
that in just a minute.
00:12:06.59\00:12:09.29
We're going to take a
break, so don't go away.
00:12:09.32\00:12:10.94
We'll be right back.
00:12:10.97\00:12:12.04
Russians officials
accepted the Vatican credentials
00:12:14.86\00:12:17.25
of Archbishop Antonio Mennini
00:12:17.28\00:12:19.37
as the first ever
Papal Nuncio to Russia.
00:12:19.40\00:12:22.22
The event ushers in a new era
00:12:22.91\00:12:24.67
of full
diplomatic relations between
00:12:24.70\00:12:27.45
the Holy See and
the Russian Federation.
00:12:27.48\00:12:29.66
Pope Benedict XVI and
President Dmitry Medvedev
00:12:30.17\00:12:33.79
had agreed to establish
full diplomatic relations
00:12:33.82\00:12:37.32
in December of 2009,
after they met at the Vatican.
00:12:37.35\00:12:40.76
"The purpose of this
diplomatic cooperation
00:12:40.79\00:12:44.06
is for the moral growth
of the people of Russia,"
00:12:44.09\00:12:46.92
said Mennini.
00:12:46.95\00:12:48.14
That would certainly include
00:12:48.17\00:12:50.40
enforcement of
Sunday worship eventually.
00:12:50.43\00:12:52.71
In Revelation 13:3,
the Bible says that,
00:12:52.74\00:12:56.36
"All the World
wondered after the beast.
00:12:56.39\00:12:58.69
All the Nations
will support and worship
00:12:58.72\00:13:01.42
the Papal Religious
Power that will dominate
00:13:01.45\00:13:04.09
the World in the last days. "
00:13:04.12\00:13:05.76
I'm Hal Mayor,
reminding you to keep the faith.
00:13:06.39\00:13:10.33
Welcome to the last
Study Bible you'll ever need.
00:13:34.65\00:13:37.70
The New Remnant Study Bible
00:13:37.87\00:13:39.87
has all the study aid serious
Bible students have come to
00:13:39.90\00:13:43.15
expect.
00:13:43.18\00:13:44.15
Like book
introductions and outlines,
00:13:44.16\00:13:45.86
and extensive concordance.
00:13:45.89\00:13:47.59
Over 40,000 Cross references,
00:13:47.62\00:13:49.54
Words of Christ in
Red, Maps, and Charts.
00:13:49.84\00:13:52.34
But with hundreds of other
Study Bibles on the market,
00:13:52.37\00:13:56.38
the Remnant Study Bible
stands head and shoulders
00:13:56.41\00:13:58.74
above the rest.
00:13:58.77\00:13:59.74
Not only because it's everything
00:13:59.75\00:14:01.52
you've always
needed in a Study Bible,
00:14:01.55\00:14:03.46
but because it takes studying
the Bible to an entirely new
00:14:03.49\00:14:06.80
level.
00:14:06.83\00:14:07.80
From the hottest pen
since the Bible Prophets,
00:14:07.81\00:14:10.74
the masterful commentary
of E.G. White is now included,
00:14:10.77\00:14:14.61
alongside the New
King James Bible text.
00:14:14.64\00:14:17.48
As you read, these
thought provoking nuggets
00:14:17.51\00:14:19.70
stand out from
the main Bible text
00:14:19.73\00:14:21.43
and offers spirit-filled
insight to bring text to life
00:14:21.46\00:14:24.47
in an inspiring
and practical way.
00:14:24.50\00:14:26.49
If we stop right
there, this Bible would be
00:14:26.52\00:14:29.08
and invaluable
resource to every Home.
00:14:29.11\00:14:31.48
But keep watching,
we're just getting started.
00:14:31.51\00:14:34.10
The Remnant Study Bible
offers extensive study tools
00:14:35.21\00:14:37.83
that not only
help you understand
00:14:37.86\00:14:39.85
but also enable you to
share these truths with others
00:14:39.88\00:14:43.08
in a whole new
and effective way.
00:14:43.11\00:14:45.39
Feel confident as
you share on topics
00:14:45.42\00:14:48.10
such as the prophecies in
Daniel Chapters 2, 7, and 8.
00:14:48.13\00:14:52.04
And the 2,300 Day Prophecy.
00:14:52.07\00:14:54.14
See the plan of
salvation plainly revealed
00:14:54.17\00:14:56.77
in the sanctuary and study the
miracles and parables of Jesus
00:14:56.80\00:15:00.38
in a deeper way
than ever before.
00:15:00.41\00:15:02.68
Remnant has teamed with
Thomas Nelson Publishers,
00:15:02.71\00:15:05.12
working together for over a year
00:15:05.15\00:15:07.16
making this the best Study
Bible ever offered at any price.
00:15:07.19\00:15:10.96
The Apostle Peter makes a
bold call to all generations
00:15:10.99\00:15:15.42
to be a part of
God's Special Forces Team.
00:15:15.45\00:15:17.94
We have done our
very best to provide you
00:15:17.97\00:15:20.44
with the most powerful
sword of truth available.
00:15:20.47\00:15:22.97
Now the decision
is in your hands.
00:15:23.00\00:15:25.48
Will you accept the
challenge to become part of
00:15:25.51\00:15:28.04
God's Last Day Army?
00:15:28.07\00:15:29.89
Equip yourself today.
00:15:29.92\00:15:32.25
Wow, that- that little break
in the commercial that you saw
00:15:32.28\00:15:38.21
about this Remnant Study Bible.
00:15:38.24\00:15:39.74
I just think it's fantastic.
00:15:39.77\00:15:41.48
Nothing to do with
me, it's a God thing.
00:15:42.41\00:15:44.21
And we're here with- with Randy.
00:15:44.24\00:15:46.42
And, Randy, I want to kind of go
right back to where we were at.
00:15:46.45\00:15:49.15
You all flew in, you
flew in with 2 others
00:15:49.18\00:15:51.70
and we were sitting
in the Conference Room
00:15:51.73\00:15:53.32
and you asked me,
00:15:53.35\00:15:54.32
"Dwight, do you believe in the
product that you sell on," you
00:15:54.33\00:15:57.49
know, "through your Ministry?"
00:15:57.52\00:15:59.61
And you know, I had said
yes, and- and you asked me,
00:15:59.64\00:16:03.71
"Can you give me
a little testimony?"
00:16:04.45\00:16:05.72
and I- of course I mentioned
that because these Books by
00:16:05.75\00:16:08.81
Ellen White with the
Scriptures had changed my life
00:16:08.84\00:16:11.69
because I really wanted to get
back to the Bible, the basics.
00:16:11.72\00:16:14.33
and I wanted to make
the Bible come alive.
00:16:14.36\00:16:16.16
And then you had this,
I call it a smirky grin.
00:16:16.19\00:16:19.38
This morning when I was
talking to you before the camera
00:16:19.41\00:16:20.57
Like this one?
00:16:20.60\00:16:21.57
Yeh. You said,
00:16:21.58\00:16:22.55
"Well, Dwight, it was
really a smirky grin. "
00:16:22.56\00:16:23.53
Well, it was a grin like
you kind of almost knew all that
00:16:23.54\00:16:27.79
and then you asked the question
00:16:27.82\00:16:29.12
or you didn't ask, you said,
00:16:29.15\00:16:30.85
"That's why I'm here. "
00:16:30.88\00:16:32.09
Which kind of took me back.
00:16:32.12\00:16:34.24
And that's when you
asked if we would do this Bible
00:16:34.27\00:16:37.33
with Ellen White comments
00:16:37.36\00:16:38.76
and you told me something.
00:16:38.92\00:16:41.10
You- you mentioned, "Dwight,
I want you to know. We're not
00:16:41.13\00:16:42.96
doing it because you're
a Seventh Day Adventist. "
00:16:42.99\00:16:45.29
So can you remember what?
00:16:45.32\00:16:47.07
I mean, it's been a
little while ago now.
00:16:47.10\00:16:48.63
It has been a while.
00:16:48.66\00:16:49.79
Well you know, I
knew before I came.
00:16:49.82\00:16:52.71
I did my
homework and I could see
00:16:52.74\00:16:54.76
that your heartbeat in
Ministry was much bigger
00:16:54.79\00:16:57.93
than serving just
the Seventh Day Adventist
00:16:57.96\00:17:00.45
That's right
00:17:00.48\00:17:01.45
marketplace
00:17:01.46\00:17:02.43
Yes.
00:17:02.44\00:17:03.41
So you- you guys were
reaching around the World
00:17:03.42\00:17:04.39
and you were
doing it for any church
00:17:04.40\00:17:05.37
Yes.
00:17:05.38\00:17:06.35
that wanted some of the
tools that you were bringing,
00:17:06.36\00:17:08.20
some of the books and
some of the resources.
00:17:08.23\00:17:10.05
I admire that and
you know, for me, my
00:17:10.08\00:17:13.72
When I came to faith at
33, Dwight, my prayer was,
00:17:13.75\00:17:17.33
"Lord, give me a job so big that
without You I couldn't do it. "
00:17:17.36\00:17:20.87
So there'd
00:17:20.90\00:17:21.87
Amen
00:17:21.88\00:17:22.85
be no question that it
had anything to do with me
00:17:22.86\00:17:24.86
because I'm just
not that good, frankly.
00:17:24.89\00:17:26.63
And I wanted to be a part
of something that God was up
00:17:26.66\00:17:28.41
Amen
00:17:28.44\00:17:29.41
to
00:17:29.42\00:17:30.39
Yeah.
00:17:30.40\00:17:31.37
And so, you know what?
00:17:31.38\00:17:32.35
I think that smirk,
now that I think about it,
00:17:32.36\00:17:33.33
was- was one of those glimmers
that, "Lord, are You up to
00:17:33.34\00:17:35.41
something?
00:17:35.44\00:17:36.41
Hmm
00:17:36.42\00:17:37.39
And is, this You?
Because I'm about to suggest
00:17:37.40\00:17:39.65
to Remnant a Bible project
idea that is way bigger than me
00:17:39.68\00:17:45.41
and Lord, if you're in
it, You'll make it come about.
00:17:45.44\00:17:48.95
Yes.
00:17:48.98\00:17:49.95
This is going to glorify
You and You're going to do that
00:17:49.96\00:17:52.14
through Remnant
Publications. This you know"
00:17:52.17\00:17:55.29
Small Publisher,
go ahead. It's okay.
00:17:55.32\00:17:57.43
Small Publisher and Thomas
Nelson "and if You line that up
00:17:57.46\00:18:00.88
and bless it, then it
can reach a lot of people. "
00:18:00.91\00:18:04.21
Amen
00:18:04.24\00:18:05.21
I know.
00:18:05.22\00:18:06.19
And it has run 40
Countries right now.
00:18:06.20\00:18:07.17
I know!
00:18:07.18\00:18:08.15
It's amazing, 40 Countries, and
00:18:08.16\00:18:09.50
You know, that's a
high five right there.
00:18:09.53\00:18:10.50
Yeah, I know. I
just think that's so neat
00:18:10.51\00:18:11.90
Not for us,
00:18:11.93\00:18:12.90
Right
00:18:12.91\00:18:13.88
but praise to of God.
00:18:13.89\00:18:14.86
Praise God
00:18:14.87\00:18:15.84
He allowed us to be even
be a part of something great
00:18:15.85\00:18:16.82
That's right
00:18:16.83\00:18:17.80
that's touched lives
around the World. I love that.
00:18:17.81\00:18:18.78
And I'll never forget when you
sat there and then you answered
00:18:18.79\00:18:21.33
"That's why I'm
here", with that little grin.
00:18:21.36\00:18:24.03
And- and you said, "We would
like to see if you would be
00:18:24.06\00:18:27.10
interested in doing an
Open Study Bible, New King James
00:18:27.13\00:18:30.63
and put Ellen White comments
because we see that she has
00:18:30.66\00:18:34.75
some great in depth
understanding of the
00:18:34.78\00:18:37.33
Scriptures and
highlight the Scriptures. "
00:18:37.36\00:18:40.07
And I'll never
forget what I told you.
00:18:40.10\00:18:41.08
I sat there and I
said, "No I wouldn't,
00:18:41.11\00:18:42.69
"we are not really
interested in that at all. "
00:18:42.72\00:18:44.33
I- I tell you- I told you
afterwards, I said I almost
00:18:44.36\00:18:49.03
The only thingñ
00:18:49.06\00:18:50.24
I felt the table levitated.
00:18:50.27\00:18:51.24
I know. My- my knees
were underneath the table
00:18:51.27\00:18:53.12
and it's like, why? I don't want
00:18:53.15\00:18:54.80
I had to bite my cheeks because
00:18:54.83\00:18:55.80
I don't want to try to act too
excited but I thought, "Wow!"
00:18:55.81\00:18:57.81
Because it was bigger than
00:18:57.84\00:18:59.30
We were- we were never thinking
of doing an Open Study Bible.
00:18:59.33\00:19:03.20
This just tells me
God prepared the way
00:19:03.23\00:19:04.65
Yes.
00:19:04.68\00:19:05.65
before I even
asked the question.
00:19:05.66\00:19:06.83
It was- it was so exciting to me
00:19:06.86\00:19:08.94
and that's how we
got to become friends.
00:19:08.97\00:19:10.84
We saw each other.
00:19:10.87\00:19:11.84
We traveled back and forth.
00:19:11.85\00:19:13.10
You had your own
Editors at Thomas Nelson
00:19:13.13\00:19:16.30
and the one thing you told
us when you have these comments,
00:19:16.33\00:19:18.76
they need to be in
context with the Scriptures.
00:19:18.79\00:19:21.00
They don't change the
meaning of that Scripture.
00:19:21.03\00:19:23.49
They have to help enlighten that
00:19:23.52\00:19:25.05
Yes
00:19:25.08\00:19:26.05
Scripture to make it
00:19:26.06\00:19:27.03
come alive and unpack it.
00:19:27.04\00:19:28.01
That's why we do our
Bible Alive programs and
00:19:28.02\00:19:30.34
And not to just put the material
in the front or the back
00:19:30.37\00:19:32.80
Right.
00:19:32.83\00:19:33.80
but to really put you know, the
explanation and the commentary
00:19:33.81\00:19:35.85
right in text,
right with the Scripture.
00:19:35.88\00:19:38.56
And the design of the Bible
00:19:38.59\00:19:40.69
Our team working with your team.
I mean, that's a gorgeous Bible.
00:19:40.72\00:19:44.59
Not only is it aesthetically
00:19:44.62\00:19:46.28
Yes
00:19:46.31\00:19:47.28
really attractive
00:19:47.29\00:19:48.26
I mean, it's a gorgeous Bible.
00:19:48.27\00:19:50.19
But the helps are so
important and meaningful.
00:19:50.22\00:19:53.04
I hear you promote it as
the only Study Bible you'll ever
00:19:53.07\00:19:55.04
need
00:19:55.07\00:19:56.04
Right
00:19:56.05\00:19:57.02
but- and the truth is,
it is really is a wonderful
00:19:57.03\00:19:58.00
It is
00:19:58.01\00:19:58.98
resource.
00:19:58.99\00:19:59.96
And- and these little comments
the- the camera will pick up
00:19:59.97\00:20:02.08
it was kind of a new
thing that people were
00:20:02.11\00:20:05.60
maybe missing when the comments
00:20:05.63\00:20:07.46
were only on the
bottom of the page.
00:20:07.49\00:20:08.85
But as they were put
in here which we like
00:20:08.88\00:20:11.75
because now they're
right where the text is at,
00:20:11.78\00:20:13.96
you know it's just a comment,
it's not part of Scripture.
00:20:14.62\00:20:17.20
Exactly.
00:20:17.23\00:20:18.20
It's an a blue-shaded
box so it has nothing to do
00:20:18.21\00:20:20.32
with how we were mixing
a scripture with comments.
00:20:20.35\00:20:22.76
You're not changing
the text of the Scripture
00:20:22.79\00:20:24.29
You're illuminating it
with these commentaries.
00:20:24.32\00:20:26.31
Yeh, and when you did
that and people reading it -
00:20:26.34\00:20:28.58
and we have one
big complaint, Randy,
00:20:28.61\00:20:31.38
that we've got them through
email and letters, and phone
00:20:31.41\00:20:34.68
calls that have-
00:20:34.71\00:20:35.88
No matter what
denomination they are,
00:20:35.91\00:20:38.14
here's the biggest complaint,
if you're ready for this
00:20:38.17\00:20:40.77
they said, you know, "We
would hope that when you do this
00:20:40.80\00:20:43.48
again that you would
put more comments in here. "
00:20:43.51\00:20:45.31
Hmm
00:20:45.34\00:20:46.31
Because the people
have said, you know,
00:20:46.32\00:20:48.69
"Remnant Publications, these
comments have- have enlightened
00:20:48.72\00:20:51.22
me so much to help me understand
the Scriptures in a- in a
00:20:51.25\00:20:53.85
greater way.
00:20:53.88\00:20:54.85
Creating a hunger for more.
00:20:54.86\00:20:55.83
It- it creates a hunger for more
00:20:55.84\00:20:56.81
and it makes the
Bible truly come alive.
00:20:56.82\00:20:58.68
Hmm
00:20:58.71\00:20:59.68
So we're- we're
so excited about it
00:20:59.69\00:21:01.25
and I want to
get into some things.
00:21:01.28\00:21:02.93
I think one of the things that-
that we need to say is that
00:21:02.96\00:21:05.30
I- I was at Thomas
Nelson just not too long ago
00:21:05.33\00:21:08.70
and they said that when they
got their sales people together
00:21:08.73\00:21:10.99
and I think you
were a part of that.
00:21:11.02\00:21:12.38
They put all the
Bibles out there.
00:21:12.41\00:21:15.02
You have a lot of good Bibles.
00:21:15.05\00:21:16.42
Yep
00:21:16.45\00:21:17.42
But they had said that
they wanted to put this Bible
00:21:17.43\00:21:19.08
in their premiere line.
00:21:19.11\00:21:20.31
In other words, it
was a premiere Bible.
00:21:20.34\00:21:22.49
It was one of their best Bibles
that they have ever partnered
00:21:22.52\00:21:25.66
with or produced.
00:21:25.69\00:21:26.66
They really are.
00:21:26.76\00:21:27.73
That was exciting
for me to hear that.
00:21:27.74\00:21:28.71
Well, just the technical
aspects of producing a Bible,
00:21:28.72\00:21:31.12
the very best went into
the Remnant Study Bible.
00:21:31.15\00:21:37.04
The cover
materials, the typesetting,
00:21:37.07\00:21:40.30
the paper.
00:21:41.36\00:21:42.33
I mean, you
know when you get it,
00:21:42.85\00:21:44.07
it- it- it just No. 1, it feels
00:21:44.10\00:21:45.83
Yes
00:21:45.86\00:21:46.83
fantastic it
00:21:46.84\00:21:47.81
You know, I think
it's very honoring to God
00:21:47.82\00:21:49.44
that the Bible
00:21:49.47\00:21:50.49
Just the design and
the physical product itself
00:21:50.52\00:21:54.02
is as gorgeous as it should be.
00:21:54.05\00:21:55.96
But the power is in
the pages obviously.
00:21:55.99\00:21:58.01
Absolutely.
00:21:58.04\00:21:59.01
But you know, we can
be very proud of the fact
00:21:59.02\00:22:00.99
that God allowed
us to create a product
00:22:01.02\00:22:02.77
that everyone will be
00:22:02.80\00:22:04.15
You know, it'll be a legacy
Bible that'll be in the family
00:22:05.46\00:22:08.53
for generations
and it'll last forever,
00:22:08.56\00:22:11.36
and it's just a
gorgeous product.
00:22:11.39\00:22:13.36
But the power is in the Word.
00:22:13.39\00:22:14.89
It's in the Word.
00:22:14.92\00:22:15.89
And you know, the
Topical Chain Reference System
00:22:15.90\00:22:18.23
that you helped- worked
with our team to design,
00:22:18.26\00:22:20.98
it's fantastic.
00:22:21.01\00:22:21.98
You got a really terrific
Concordance in the back. So I
00:22:21.99\00:22:24.97
mean, you've got the
right tools to do really serious
00:22:25.00\00:22:27.41
Bible Study.
00:22:27.44\00:22:28.41
That's right. The Thom- The
Thompson Chain or not Thompson
00:22:28.42\00:22:31.34
Chain but the chain reference.
We've 20 different topics
00:22:31.37\00:22:33.44
and what was so neat
working with Nelson is
00:22:33.47\00:22:36.08
because it's a Bible chain,
everywhere in the Scriptures
00:22:36.11\00:22:39.36
you'll- when you see a chain,
you know that is a chain to
00:22:39.39\00:22:43.33
lead to, like for instance,
I just turned this just now
00:22:43.36\00:22:45.29
and I see this chain.
00:22:45.32\00:22:47.26
And it says, and it tells
in this chain that the chain is
00:22:47.29\00:22:51.59
2 Corinthians 6
and it's Verse 14.
00:22:51.62\00:22:55.28
Well, the chain is
right there and then
00:22:55.31\00:22:57.24
when you look
underneath that it says,
00:22:57.27\00:22:58.95
"Christian behavior,"
that's what it's about.
00:22:58.98\00:23:00.77
And it gives you the next text.
00:23:00.80\00:23:01.84
It's a chain.
00:23:01.87\00:23:02.84
Yes
00:23:02.85\00:23:03.82
It all starts in the back
00:23:03.83\00:23:04.80
and- and the
neat thing about this,
00:23:04.81\00:23:05.78
it's- it not only gives the text
00:23:05.79\00:23:07.70
but it gives a little bit of
00:23:07.73\00:23:09.40
what it is about in the back
00:23:09.43\00:23:10.72
so you know
where the text is at.
00:23:10.75\00:23:12.21
And it tells what it is and
it's about Christian behavior,
00:23:12.24\00:23:15.19
about, even Christian dress.
00:23:15.22\00:23:18.08
How should Christians dress.
00:23:18.11\00:23:19.08
Uhh hmm
00:23:19.09\00:23:20.06
Is there a difference
between the World and- and the
00:23:20.07\00:23:21.07
Christians from the Scriptures?
00:23:21.10\00:23:22.49
And, can you trust
the Bible and prophecy.
00:23:22.52\00:23:25.66
We have so many things that
we have in this- in this chain
00:23:25.69\00:23:29.99
reference 20 topics
and it's just amazing.
00:23:30.02\00:23:32.98
And I was really amazed
at how the- the Nelson people
00:23:33.01\00:23:37.19
and the Editors worked with us
00:23:37.22\00:23:38.94
to make this, to me
one of the best references.
00:23:38.97\00:23:41.02
It took a lot of collaboration.
00:23:41.05\00:23:42.02
Yeh, it really did.
00:23:42.03\00:23:43.00
It wasn't all
you, it wasn't all us.
00:23:43.01\00:23:43.98
Right
00:23:43.99\00:23:44.96
I mean, it took
both our Organizations
00:23:44.97\00:23:45.94
working
together to pull this off
00:23:45.95\00:23:47.13
and to do it in a way that is
00:23:47.16\00:23:49.91
really God-honoring and reflects
00:23:50.85\00:23:53.42
the best of what
we both represent.
00:23:53.45\00:23:55.27
Yes and then
00:23:55.30\00:23:56.56
and the product reflects that.
00:23:56.59\00:23:57.75
And the product reflects it.
00:23:57.78\00:23:58.75
And in the back, there
was a- we did a 32-page
00:23:58.76\00:24:00.55
colored signature. But
you just shared again with me
00:24:00.58\00:24:03.55
this morning that as you
travel around and you know a lot
00:24:03.58\00:24:06.09
of Ministries, you
meet a lot of people.
00:24:06.12\00:24:08.18
The prophecy is still a key
thing, especially now in America
00:24:08.21\00:24:11.97
There is a hunger for it
00:24:12.00\00:24:13.43
and to have, you know,
kind of one of the crown jewels
00:24:13.46\00:24:17.42
you know, on prophecy
in the Remnant Study Bible
00:24:17.45\00:24:21.87
We have the- the
Daniel prophecies in there,
00:24:21.90\00:24:24.05
4 color pictures and we
have a 2,300-day prophecy.
00:24:24.08\00:24:27.05
But it was all because
it was working together
00:24:28.43\00:24:30.06
Yeh
00:24:30.09\00:24:31.06
to- to create a
product that people could get
00:24:31.07\00:24:35.14
and unpack
Scriptures, make it come alive
00:24:35.17\00:24:38.05
so they can live the
Gospel in their own homes.
00:24:38.08\00:24:41.06
And I love the fact that you
00:24:41.09\00:24:42.90
I mean, we
actually did find a way
00:24:43.57\00:24:45.15
to affordably put this
beautiful 4- color section
00:24:45.18\00:24:48.32
in a Study Bible.
00:24:48.35\00:24:49.40
That's rare.
00:24:49.43\00:24:50.40
Yeh, because
there's not many like that.
00:24:50.41\00:24:51.98
Exactly.
00:24:52.01\00:24:52.98
and so they can
actually see these
00:24:52.99\00:24:54.23
statues and the
feast of Daniel and stuff.
00:24:54.26\00:24:56.23
And you know, I'm not here
00:24:56.26\00:24:59.49
I mean, I want
everyone - I wished everyone
00:24:59.52\00:25:01.93
had a Remnant Study Bible.
00:25:01.96\00:25:02.93
In fact, I've got to just
say one other thing too, the
00:25:02.94\00:25:06.56
Remnant. Even though
we're Remnant Publications,
00:25:06.65\00:25:07.62
When we went to you,
00:25:07.63\00:25:09.10
I'll never forget this.
00:25:09.13\00:25:10.10
We were sitting at
dinner there at Nashville,
00:25:10.11\00:25:11.73
and the- the Editors and
stuff, and we were saying,
00:25:11.76\00:25:14.82
"What are we going
to call this Bible?"
00:25:14.85\00:25:16.12
And you know, I didn't know.
00:25:16.15\00:25:18.61
And I don't know if it
was you, Randy, that said,
00:25:18.64\00:25:21.37
"Well, what about calling
it 'The Remnant Study Bible'?"
00:25:21.40\00:25:23.66
Of course I'm- my head's
going just a little bit big,
00:25:23.69\00:25:26.13
I have to admit, a
little bit prideful thing.
00:25:26.16\00:25:27.75
"Oh, that's pretty nice. "
00:25:27.78\00:25:28.75
You said, "Well. "
00:25:28.76\00:25:29.73
"Yeh, Remnant Publications,
The Remnant Study Bible. "
00:25:29.75\00:25:32.16
And then- and then- and then you
said, "Well, Dwight, it really
00:25:32.19\00:25:35.27
isn't about your Publishing
Company. It's about the
00:25:35.30\00:25:37.74
Remnants. It's about
00:25:37.77\00:25:38.74
Absolutely
00:25:38.75\00:25:39.72
people in the end. "
00:25:39.73\00:25:40.70
It perfectly reflects the Bible
00:25:40.71\00:25:41.68
Yes
00:25:41.69\00:25:42.66
and what it represents.
00:25:42.67\00:25:43.64
You know, for those
that are going to be
00:25:43.65\00:25:44.62
The Remnants
00:25:44.63\00:25:45.60
in the end of times you know,
00:25:45.61\00:25:46.58
to the Remnant
that's going to be
00:25:46.59\00:25:48.06
the Army that
00:25:48.09\00:25:50.11
Yes
00:25:50.14\00:25:51.11
you know
00:25:51.12\00:25:52.09
lifted- gets lifted up in
the appropriate time and season.
00:25:52.10\00:25:54.15
So I mean, it's- it's a
perfect name for the Bible.
00:25:54.18\00:25:56.39
Oh yes. I love it.
00:25:56.42\00:25:57.39
and people have- we are
in 40 different Countries
00:25:57.42\00:25:59.96
have sold a lot of them.
00:26:00.00\00:26:02.00
and I know that. Our
00:26:02.03\00:26:03.01
and that's in such a
short period of time,
00:26:03.04\00:26:05.04
which is
00:26:05.07\00:26:06.04
Yeh. In just a few months.
00:26:06.05\00:26:07.02
It's been miraculous
00:26:07.03\00:26:08.00
Yeh
00:26:08.01\00:26:08.98
You know, that it's just began
00:26:08.99\00:26:10.72
Yes
00:26:10.75\00:26:11.72
for people to
discover this Bible and- and
00:26:11.73\00:26:12.70
I think we're in a pretty
much all the Adventist Book
00:26:12.72\00:26:17.06
Centers, we've got other
Christian stores, Bookstores
00:26:17.09\00:26:19.23
that are buying
them and I know that even
00:26:19.26\00:26:22.03
And you know, let me interrupt.
00:26:22.63\00:26:23.60
Yes, yes
00:26:23.62\00:26:24.59
Because you don't
have the package of the box
00:26:24.60\00:26:27.14
but you know, there's 3 reasons
00:26:27.17\00:26:28.50
people will buy a Bible.
00:26:28.53\00:26:29.71
Yeh
00:26:29.74\00:26:30.71
Is- for a gift.
00:26:30.72\00:26:32.12
Or to study.
00:26:32.21\00:26:34.04
Yes
00:26:34.07\00:26:35.04
Or to understand.
00:26:35.05\00:26:36.02
Yes
00:26:36.03\00:26:37.00
You know, to
read or to understand.
00:26:37.01\00:26:38.64
So you- you also have a Bible
that was beautifully packaged
00:26:38.67\00:26:44.06
Yes.
00:26:44.09\00:26:45.06
In a two piece gift box
00:26:45.07\00:26:46.04
so for you know, one of the most
important reasons people buy
00:26:46.05\00:26:49.43
Bibles which is to bless
00:26:49.46\00:26:50.69
Always
00:26:50.72\00:26:51.69
as a gift to others.
00:26:51.70\00:26:52.67
Yeh
00:26:52.68\00:26:53.65
It's stunning.
00:26:53.66\00:26:54.63
Yes
00:26:54.64\00:26:55.61
I mean, the
packaging is wonderful.
00:26:55.62\00:26:56.59
So, I mean that's important
00:26:56.60\00:26:57.57
because you want
to bless other people.
00:26:57.58\00:26:58.55
That's right.
00:26:58.56\00:26:59.53
You know, the Bible's amazing
00:26:59.54\00:27:01.72
but you want the
gift to be packaged
00:27:01.75\00:27:03.74
as beautifully as you can
00:27:03.77\00:27:05.07
and you know, we
also were fortunate enough
00:27:05.10\00:27:07.50
to do that really well.
00:27:07.53\00:27:09.18
So when you get in and
you actually hold the Bible
00:27:09.21\00:27:11.73
that speaks for itself
00:27:11.76\00:27:12.92
Amen
00:27:12.95\00:27:13.92
but you also got
a beautiful Bible
00:27:13.93\00:27:14.90
that fills for
study, and or understanding
00:27:14.91\00:27:19.48
and it's beautifully packaged.
00:27:19.51\00:27:20.86
So you know, God really blessed
00:27:20.89\00:27:22.95
He really did.
00:27:22.98\00:27:23.95
Randy, I cannot- I cannot
believe we're running out of
00:27:23.96\00:27:26.34
time. Time goes so quick here.
00:27:26.37\00:27:27.54
But I just want everyone to know
00:27:27.57\00:27:29.60
get into the Scriptures,
00:27:29.63\00:27:31.39
read them, study them,
00:27:31.42\00:27:32.66
make them applicable to you.
00:27:32.69\00:27:34.59
And you know what?
00:27:34.62\00:27:35.59
If you don't put it off, you too
will have a better way of life.
00:27:35.60\00:27:38.89
By working together,
1.7 million copies of
00:27:38.92\00:27:42.88
"The Passion of Love" were
distributed around the Country,
00:27:42.91\00:27:45.51
resulting in an
unprecedented partnership
00:27:45.54\00:27:48.09
with Wal-Mart, that led to
over a thousand Bible Studies.
00:27:48.12\00:27:51.83
By working together,
over 6 million copies
00:27:52.73\00:27:55.44
of "The Ten Commandments
Twice Removed" were shared
00:27:55.47\00:27:57.93
around the World, resulting
in more than 20 Churches
00:27:57.96\00:28:01.18
now keeping the Bible Sabbath.
00:28:01.21\00:28:03.05
By working together, we have
shipped almost a million Bibles
00:28:03.72\00:28:07.40
to spiritually
thirsty Christians in Africa,
00:28:07.43\00:28:09.84
touching the lives of 20
million people for Christ.
00:28:09.87\00:28:13.10
Working together is what
allows Remnant Publications
00:28:13.86\00:28:17.76
to spread truth
filled Books around the World
00:28:17.79\00:28:20.37
to hasten the Lord's coming.
00:28:20.40\00:28:22.69
Will you join
us in that mission?
00:28:22.72\00:28:24.84
Will you help us
reach the World for Jesus
00:28:24.87\00:28:27.86
one Book at a time.
00:28:27.89\00:28:29.99
