>> MANY YEARS AGO,
DR. BILLY GRAHAM CAME HERE
00:04:27.10\00:04:28.66
TO THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES
TO RUN A GREAT EVANGELISTIC
00:04:28.66\00:04:31.33
CAMPAIGN. THIS IS
A PLACE WHERE THERE'S
00:04:31.33\00:04:35.94
A LOT OF OPPOSITION TO
THE PREACHING OF THE GOSPEL
00:04:35.94\00:04:37.94
OF CHRIST. I DON'T
KNOW WHY, BUT IT SEEMS
00:04:37.94\00:04:40.91
TO BE SATAN'S SEAT.
THERE'S A LOT OF HATRED TOWARDS
00:04:40.91\00:04:45.08
THE PREACHERS OF THE GOSPEL
IN THIS PART OF THE WORLD.
00:04:45.08\00:04:48.08
MAYBE IT'S BECAUSE OF HOLLYWOOD
OR SOME OTHER INFLUENCE.
00:04:48.08\00:04:50.89
I JUST DON'T KNOW.
BUT AFTER DR. BILLY GRAHAM
00:04:50.89\00:04:53.76
TALKED ABOUT RUNNING THIS
GREAT CAMPAIGN HERE IN THE CITY
00:04:53.76\00:04:56.83
OF THE ANGELS, HE WAS TALKING
00:04:56.83\00:05:01.46
TO A GROUP OF MINISTERS. YOU
SEE, HE GOT ALL THESE MINISTERS
TOGETHER TO ASK FOR
00:05:01.53\00:05:06.13
THEIR SUPPORT. AND THAT'S
WHERE THE OPPOSITION STARTED.
00:05:06.13\00:05:10.41
OPPOSITION OFTEN COMES TO THE
PREACHING OF THE GOSPEL, NOT
FROM TRUE BELIEVERS,
00:05:10.41\00:05:16.54
BUT FROM SUPER RELIGIOUS PEOPLE.
AND A MINISTER GOT UP AND HE
00:05:16.54\00:05:21.35
SAID, "DR. GRAHAM IF YOU RUN
THESE SERIES OF MEETINGS, THIS
SERIES OF MEETINGS,
00:05:21.35\00:05:25.69
YOU'RE GOING TO TAKE THE CHURCH
BACK 100 YEARS." FRIEND OF MINE,
00:05:25.69\00:05:32.03
DR. REX EDWARDS FROM WASHINGTON,
WAS IN THE MEETING AND HE TOLD
00:05:32.03\00:05:36.13
ME THIS STORY. AND HE SAID AFTER
THIS MAN GOT UP AND SAID "YOU'RE
GOING TO TAKE THE CHURCH BACK
00:05:36.13\00:05:41.47
100 YEARS IN AMERICA," HE SAID
BILLY SLOWLY-- BILLY STARTED TO
GET TO HIS FEET--WE'RE GLAD TO
00:05:41.47\00:05:50.01
HAVE MRS. WILLY JORDAN WITH
US TODAY TOO. WE'RE SO GLAD.
00:05:50.01\00:05:53.52
AND SHE KNOWS DR. BILLY GRAHAM.
SHE'S BEEN A PART OF HIS TEAM.
BUT AS DR. EDWARD SAID AS THE
00:05:53.52\00:06:01.36
GREAT EVANGELIST GOT TO HIS
FEET, HE SAID HE COULD JUST
ABOUT HEAR THE WHEELS TURNING.
00:06:01.36\00:06:10.20
DR. GRAHAM GOT UP AND HE TURNED
TO THE SKEPTIC AND HE SAID, "I
WANT TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR
00:06:10.20\00:06:14.74
REMARK, BUT I WANT TO MAKE IT
VERY PLAIN HERE TODAY. IT IS NOT
MY INTENTION TO TAKE
00:06:14.74\00:06:20.28
THE CHURCH BACK 100 YEARS. I
WANT TO SEE GOD TAKE HIS CHURCH
00:06:20.28\00:06:29.35
BACK 2,000 YEARS, BACK TO THE
DAYS OF THE APOSTLES AND BACK TO
THE DAYS OF PENTECOST."
00:06:29.35\00:06:36.09
AND I WANT TO TELL YOU FOLKS
TODAY WHEN WE WENT TO HONIARA,
00:06:36.16\00:06:39.56
GOD TOOK HIS
CHURCH BACK 2,000 YEARS.
00:06:39.56\00:06:41.13
TODAY'S TOPIC IS
"THE PENTECOST REPORT."
00:06:41.13\00:06:45.93
AND PLEASE WRITE FOR YOUR COPY
OF THIS MAGAZINE WE'VE JUST PUT
00:06:45.93\00:06:50.34
OUT, "THE PENTECOST REPORT."
AND I JUST WANT TO THANK PROMISE
00:06:50.34\00:06:54.48
TODAY FROM AVONDALE
COLLEGE FOR SINGING FOR US.
00:06:54.48\00:06:57.61
I WANT YOU TO TAKE YOUR BIBLES
DOWN, TURN WITH ME OVER HERE TO
00:06:57.61\00:06:59.75
ROMANS 10, BOOK OF ROMANS 10,
00:06:59.75\00:07:06.29
EVERYBODY TAKE YOUR BIBLE. WE
ARE A BIBLE-CARRYING AND A
BIBLE-READING CHURCH.
00:07:06.35\00:07:12.63
ROMANS 10:8-15, WOULD YOU HOLD
UP YOUR BIBLE? IF YOU'VE GOT A
00:07:12.63\00:07:19.07
BIBLE HERE TODAY IN CHURCH, HOLD
IT UP HIGH. THAT SCARES THE
DEVIL WHEN HE SEES PEOPLE WITH A
00:07:19.07\00:07:25.14
BIBLE. SO, HOLD UP YOUR BIBLE.
ROMANS--PUT IT DOWN, THANK YOU.
00:07:25.14\00:07:28.88
ROMANS 10:8 AND
ONWARDS. ARE YOU READY?
00:07:28.88\00:07:34.55
"BUT WHAT DOES IT SAY?
'THE WORD IS NEAR YOU; IT IS IN
00:07:34.55\00:07:40.09
YOUR MOUTH AND IN YOUR HEART,'
THAT IS, THE WORD OF FAITH WE
00:07:40.09\00:07:43.49
ARE PROCLAIMING: THAT IS IF YOU
CONFESS WITH MOUTH, 'JESUS IS
00:07:43.49\00:07:48.66
LORD,' AND BELIEVE IN YOUR HEART
THAT GOD RAISED HIM FROM THE
00:07:48.66\00:07:52.93
DEAD, YOU WILL BE SAVED.
FOR IT IS WITH YOUR HEART THAT
00:07:52.93\00:07:58.67
YOU BELIEVE AND ARE JUSTIFIED,
AND IT IS WITH YOUR MOUTH THAT
00:07:58.67\00:08:03.95
YOU CONFESS AND ARE SAVED.
AS THE SCRIPTURE SAYS, 'ANYONE
00:08:03.95\00:08:11.09
WHO TRUSTS IN HIM WILL
NEVER BE PUT TO SHAME.'
00:08:11.09\00:08:15.89
FOR THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN JEW AND GENTILE--THE
00:08:15.89\00:08:18.89
SAME LORD IS LORD OF ALL
AND RICHLY BLESSES ALL WHO
00:08:18.89\00:08:22.80
CALL ON HIM, FOR,"
EVERYONE SAY IT WITH ME.
00:08:22.80\00:08:26.00
"'EVERYONE WHO CALLS
ON THE NAME OF THE LORD
00:08:26.00\00:08:30.87
SHALL BE SAVED.'"
AND NOTICE THE NEXT VERSE
00:08:30.87\00:08:34.81
BECAUSE THOSE MINISTERS
WHO CRITICIZED DR. GRAHAM
00:08:34.81\00:08:38.28
APPARENTLY HAD
NEVER READ THIS TEXT.
00:08:38.28\00:08:40.75
"HOW, THEN, CAN THEY CALL ON THE
ONE THEY HAVE NOT BELIEVED IN?
00:08:40.75\00:08:45.62
AND HOW CAN THEY BELIEVE IN THE
ONE OF WHOM THEY HAVE NOT HEARD?
00:08:45.62\00:08:49.76
AND HOW CAN THEY HEAR WITHOUT
SOMEONE PREACHING TO THEM?
00:08:49.76\00:08:55.26
AND HOW CAN THEY
PREACH UNLESS THEY ARE SENT?
00:08:55.26\00:08:58.27
AS IT IS WRITTEN, 'HOW BEAUTIFUL
ARE THE FEET OF THOSE WHO BRING
00:08:58.27\00:09:02.40
GOOD NEWS!'"
THAT MEANS THE GOSPEL.
00:09:02.40\00:09:05.41
AND VERSE 17 SAYS,
"CONSEQUENTLY, FAITH COMES FROM
00:09:05.41\00:09:09.41
HEARING THE MESSAGE, AND
THE MESSAGE IS HEARD THROUGH THE
00:09:09.41\00:09:12.81
WORD OF CHRIST."
LISTEN VERY CAREFULLY.
00:09:12.81\00:09:15.82
THE BIBLE TEACHES THAT THERE IS
NO OTHER NAME UNDER HEAVEN GIVEN
AMONG MEN WHEREBY WE MUST BE
00:09:15.82\00:09:21.82
SAVED. WE ARE NOT
SAVED BECAUSE WE ARE SINCERE.
00:09:21.82\00:09:28.26
WE'RE NOT SAVED BECAUSE WE
TRY TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT. WE ARE
00:09:28.26\00:09:33.13
SAVED THROUGH THE BLOOD OF
CHRIST. THE BIBLE SAYS JESUS IS
THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE
00:09:33.13\00:09:40.01
LIFE. MANY, MANY PEOPLE,
EVEN TODAY IN THE CHURCH, DON'T
00:09:40.01\00:09:44.15
UNDERSTAND THAT. THAT JESUS IS
THE WAY AND JESUS IS THE TRUTH
AND JESUS IS THE LIFE.
00:09:44.15\00:09:49.75
COME OVER HERE TO EPHESIANS 2.
EPHESIANS 2, LET ME SEE,
EPHESIANS 2:1 AND ONWARDS.
00:09:49.75\00:10:01.73
I'M GLAD TO SEE YOU FOLKS
TURNING TO THE HOLY SCRIPTURES,
00:10:01.73\00:10:04.80
BECAUSE THE POWER
IS IN THE WORD OF GOD.
00:10:04.80\00:10:08.07
NOT IN THE PREACHER.
EPHESIANS 2:1 AND ONWARDS,
00:10:08.07\00:10:12.67
"AS FOR YOU, YOU WERE," WHAT?
"YOU WERE DEAD," SO IF YOU'RE
00:10:12.67\00:10:17.35
DEAD, YOU'RE DEAD.
"YOU WERE DEAD IN YOUR
00:10:17.35\00:10:18.88
TRANSGRESSIONS AND SINS,"
WITHOUT CHRIST THE BIBLE SAYS
00:10:18.88\00:10:22.42
YOU'RE DEAD. EVEN
THOUGH YOU GO TO CHURCH.
00:10:22.42\00:10:25.15
EVEN THOUGH YOU
ARE SUPER RELIGIOUS.
00:10:25.15\00:10:28.76
"IN WHICH YOU USED TO LIVE WHEN
YOU FOLLOWED THE WAYS OF THIS
00:10:28.76\00:10:30.93
WORLD AND OF THE RULER OF THE
KINGDOM OF THE AIR, THE SPIRIT
00:10:30.93\00:10:35.20
WHO IS NOW AT WORK IN
THOSE WHO ARE DISOBEDIENT.
00:10:35.20\00:10:39.67
ALL OF US ALSO LIVED AMONG
THEM AT ONE TIME, GRATIFYING THE
00:10:39.67\00:10:44.34
CRAVINGS OF OUR SINFUL
NATURE AND FOLLOWING ITS DESIRES
00:10:44.34\00:10:48.41
AND THOUGHTS. LIKE THE
REST, WE WERE BY NATURE
00:10:48.41\00:10:51.75
OBJECTS OF WRATH." THE
BIBLE SAYS OUTSIDE OF CHRIST
00:10:51.75\00:10:56.82
WE ARE OBJECTS OF WRATH.
PEOPLE SAY, "I DON'T WANT
00:10:56.82\00:10:59.19
TO HEAR THIS." IT IS THE TRUTH.
00:10:59.19\00:11:01.22
IT IS THE WORD. "BUT
BECAUSE OF HIS GREAT LOVE
00:11:01.22\00:11:05.63
FOR US, GOD, WHO IS RICH IN
MERCY, MADE US ALIVE WITH CHRIST
00:11:05.63\00:11:10.93
EVEN WHEN WE WERE DEAD IN OUR
TRANSGRESSIONS--IT IS BY GRACE
00:11:10.93\00:11:16.47
YOU HAVE BEEN SAVED."
YOU'RE NOT SAVED BY YOUR WORKS.
00:11:16.47\00:11:18.54
YOU'RE SAVED BY GRACE.
"AND GOD RAISED US UP WITH
00:11:18.54\00:11:21.68
CHRIST AND SEATED US WITH
HIM IN THE HEAVENLY REALMS
00:11:21.68\00:11:25.95
IN CHRIST JESUS, IN ORDER
THAT IN THE COMING AGES HE MIGHT
00:11:25.95\00:11:29.88
SHOW THE INCOMPARABLE RICHES
OF HIS GRACE, EXPRESSED IN HIS
00:11:29.88\00:11:35.76
KINDNESS TO US IN CHRIST JESUS.
FOR IT IS BY GRACE YOU HAVE BEEN
00:11:35.76\00:11:42.20
SAVED, THROUGH FAITH--AND THIS
NOT FROM YOURSELVES, IT IS THE
00:11:42.20\00:11:47.80
GIFT OF GOD--NOT BY
WORKS, SO THAT NO ONE CAN BOAST.
00:11:47.80\00:11:53.61
FOR WE ARE GOD'S WORKMANSHIP,
CREATED IN CHRIST JESUS TO DO
00:11:53.61\00:11:59.01
GOOD WORKS, WHICH GOD PREPARED
IN ADVANCE FOR US TO DO."
00:11:59.01\00:12:04.49
MY FRIEND, LET NOBODY GET
THE IDEA THAT WE CAN BE SAVED BY
00:12:04.49\00:12:09.02
CLIMBING UP THE QUAKING SIDES
OF MOUNT SINAI. WE CAN NEVER BE
00:12:09.02\00:12:14.56
SAVED BY THE GOSPEL OF DO, DO,
DO, DO, DO COCK-A-DOODLE-DO. THE
BIBLE TELLS ME THAT I AM
00:12:14.56\00:12:21.34
SAVED BY CHRIST AND I'M SAVED BY
THE GRACE OF GOD. AND THIS IS
COMMUNICATED TO THE
00:12:21.34\00:12:27.94
LAST--THROUGH THE PREACHING OF
THE GOSPEL. THAT IS THE WORD OF
00:12:27.94\00:12:33.48
GOD. THAT IS WHY WE BELIEVE IN
RUNNING EVANGELISTIC CAMPAIGNS.
00:12:33.48\00:12:37.82
LOOK AT VERSE 12, "REMEMBER THAT
AT THAT TIME YOU WERE SEPARATE
00:12:37.82\00:12:45.36
FROM CHRIST," THIS IS
TALKING ABOUT PEOPLE OUTSIDE THE
00:12:45.36\00:12:47.76
KINGDOM. AND WE'RE
NOT SAVED BY BELONGING
00:12:47.76\00:12:51.87
TO THE CHURCH, BECAUSE
THE CHURCH NEEDS TO BE SAVED.
00:12:51.87\00:12:55.80
"YOU WERE SEPARATE FROM CHRIST,
EXCLUDED FROM CITIZENSHIP IN
00:12:55.80\00:12:59.14
ISRAEL AND FOREIGNERS TO
THE COVENANTS OF THE PROMISE,
00:12:59.14\00:13:03.55
WITHOUT HOPE AND
WITHOUT GOD IN THE WORLD."
00:13:03.55\00:13:07.02
THE BIBLE SAYS PEOPLE OUTSIDE
OF CHRIST ARE WITHOUT HOPE
00:13:07.02\00:13:10.75
AND ARE WITHOUT GOD.
VERSE 13 SAYS, "BUT NOW IN
00:13:10.75\00:13:15.42
CHRIST JESUS YOU WHO ONCE WERE
FAR AWAY HAVE BEEN BROUGHT NEAR
00:13:15.42\00:13:21.33
THROUGH THE BLOOD OF CHRIST."
THE BIBLE TELLS ME THAT WHEN
00:13:21.33\00:13:24.60
PEOPLE COME TO CHRIST AND THEY
COME OUT OF DARKNESS--THEY STEP
OUT OF THEIR DARKNESS AND THEY
00:13:24.60\00:13:32.34
STEP INTO THE LIGHT. IT IS OUR
RESPONSIBILITY TO BRING THEM THE
00:13:32.34\00:13:39.21
GOSPEL OF CHRIST. FROM DARKNESS
TO LIGHT. FROM DESPAIR TO HOPE.
FROM DEATH TO LIFE.
00:13:39.21\00:13:45.22
FROM DAMNATION TO SALVATION.
THAT IS WHY I'M SO GLAD TO TELL
YOU TODAY AND TO TELL OUR
00:13:45.22\00:13:53.09
WORLDWIDE AUDIENCE I COULD NOT
BELONG TO JUST ANY CHURCH. I
COULDN'T BELONG TO A CHURCH
00:13:53.09\00:14:02.14
WHERE CHRIST WAS NOT THE CENTER.
I COULD NOT BELONG TO A CHURCH
THAT DID NOT, EVERY WEEK,
00:14:02.14\00:14:08.68
MAGNIFY THE BLOOD OF CHRIST. AND
THE BIBLE TELLS US WE ARE CALLED
AS HIS DISCIPLES TO
00:14:08.68\00:14:18.22
COMMUNICATE TO OUR LOST
WORLD THE UNSEARCHABLE RICHES OF
00:14:18.22\00:14:23.22
CHRIST. REMEMBER WHAT THE
WALDENSES SAID. THE WALDENSES
00:14:23.22\00:14:28.40
SAID, "YE SHALL BE MISSIONARIES,
OR YE SHALL BE NOTHING." IF YOU
DO NOT HAVE A MISSION FOR
00:14:28.40\00:14:33.34
CHRIST THAN YOU ARE NOTHING,
SAID THE WALDENSES. THIS GROUP
00:14:33.34\00:14:42.54
WHO SANG FOR US SO
SPLENDIDLY TODAY COME FROM
00:14:42.54\00:14:44.21
AVONDALE COLLEGE AND WHEN I WENT
TO THAT COLLEGE IT WAS CALLED
00:14:44.28\00:14:48.62
THE AUSTRALASIAN
MISSIONARY COLLEGE.
00:14:48.62\00:14:52.95
AND I CAN REMEMBER AS A BOY
LOOKING DOWN FROM THE FRONT OF
00:14:52.95\00:14:58.43
THE CHURCH, DOWN THE BACK OF THE
00:14:58.43\00:15:00.63
CHAPEL, AND THERE WAS
A GREAT MAP OF THE WORLD.
00:15:00.70\00:15:03.60
AND IT SAID, "FOR A
GREATER VISION OF WORLD NEEDS."
00:15:03.60\00:15:09.67
REMEMBER WHAT THE WALDENSES
SAID, "YE SHALL BE MISSIONARIES,
00:15:09.67\00:15:13.14
OR YE SHALL BE NOTHING."
AND THAT IS WHY WE BELIEVE WE
00:15:13.14\00:15:19.68
NEED TO GO BACK, NOT 100 YEARS,
BUT 2,000 YEARS TO PENTECOST
00:15:19.68\00:15:24.69
WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT WAS
POURED OUT UPON THE CHURCH.
00:15:24.69\00:15:27.82
COME WITH ME TO
ACTS 2:16 AND ONWARDS.
00:15:27.82\00:15:33.03
MY FRIEND, I WOULD HATE TO
BELONG TO A CHURCH WHERE THE
00:15:33.03\00:15:35.93
PREACHER DOESN'T TURN IN THE
SCRIPTURES. I'D HATE TO BELONG
00:15:35.93\00:15:41.04
TO THAT CHURCH. I'D HATE TO
BELONG TO A CHURCH WHERE THE
PEOPLE GET A LOT OF
00:15:41.04\00:15:47.14
FODDER TOSSED TO THEM WEEK AFTER
WEEK INSTEAD OF THE WORD OF GOD.
00:15:47.14\00:15:52.28
THE BREAD OF LIFE, ACTS 2:16 AND
ONWARDS, "NO, THIS IS WHAT WAS
00:15:52.28\00:15:59.75
SPOKEN BY THE PROPHET JOEL,"
NO THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT DRUNK
00:15:59.75\00:16:02.29
HE SAYS. "'IN THE
LAST DAYS, GOD SAYS,
00:16:02.29\00:16:07.03
I WILL POUR OUT MY
SPIRIT ON ALL PEOPLE.
00:16:07.03\00:16:10.80
YOUR SONS AND DAUGHTERS WILL
PROPHESY, YOUR YOUNG MEN WILL
00:16:10.80\00:16:14.07
SEE VISIONS, YOUR OLD
MEN WILL DREAM DREAMS.
00:16:14.07\00:16:19.14
EVEN ON MY SERVANTS, BOTH MEN
AND WOMEN, I WILL POUR OUT MY
00:16:19.14\00:16:22.48
SPIRIT IN THOSE DAYS, AND THEY
WILL PROPHESY,'" OR PREACH THE
00:16:22.48\00:16:27.68
WORD, "'I WILL SHOW WONDERS IN
THE HEAVENS ABOVE AND SIGNS ON
00:16:27.68\00:16:32.82
THE EARTH BELOW, BLOOD
AND FIRE AND BILLOWS OF SMOKE.
00:16:32.82\00:16:38.23
THE SUN WILL BE TURNED TO
DARKNESS AND THE MOON TO BLOOD
00:16:38.23\00:16:41.93
BEFORE THE COMING OF THE GREAT
AND GLORIOUS DAY OF THE LORD.
00:16:41.93\00:16:44.93
AND EVERYONE WHO CALLS ON
THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE
00:16:44.93\00:16:50.27
SAVED.'" I WANT
TO SAY TODAY THAT
00:16:50.27\00:16:54.08
I CONSIDER THAT THE GREATEST
NEED OF THIS POOR OLD PREACHER
00:16:54.08\00:16:57.35
IS FOR MORE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
00:16:57.35\00:17:00.48
AND THE GREATEST NEED OF
THIS CHURCH IS FOR MORE OF
00:17:00.55\00:17:02.82
THE HOLY SPIRIT. I WANT
TO TELL YOU A LITTLE BIT
00:17:02.82\00:17:08.69
ABOUT KATA RAGASO. AS
YOU KNOW WE'VE JUST COME BACK
00:17:08.69\00:17:12.36
FROM THE SOLOMON ISLANDS.
ONE OF THE REASONS I WENT TO THE
00:17:12.36\00:17:16.20
SOLOMON ISLANDS WAS BECAUSE
OF THIS MAN, KATA RAGASO.
00:17:16.20\00:17:24.47
WHILE I WAS THERE I ALSO
WENT OUT TO HIS GRAVE OUT IN THE
00:17:24.47\00:17:28.54
JUNGLE. AND I WENT THERE BECAUSE
00:17:28.54\00:17:33.55
I WANTED TO SHOW MY
RESPECTS. THEY CALL THIS MAN
00:17:33.55\00:17:38.49
A PRINCE AMONG
MEN. AND SO HE WAS.
00:17:38.49\00:17:43.76
I MET HIM AS A LITTLE
BOY, BUT HE WAS JUST A BABY.
00:17:43.76\00:17:52.73
HIS FATHER, WHO WAS A HEADHUNTER
FROM THE FEARSOME MAROVO LAGOON
00:17:52.73\00:18:01.48
IN THE SOLOMONS, WENT FISHING.
AND RAGASO MEANS DEVIL STRINGS.
00:18:01.48\00:18:10.75
BUT THE FATHER, EVEN THOUGH HE
WAS A PAGAN AND A HEADHUNTER AND
00:18:10.75\00:18:15.16
A CANNIBAL, HAD SOME
DOUBTS ABOUT SPIRITS.
00:18:15.16\00:18:19.83
AND WHEN HE WENT FISHING THIS
DAY HE WOULD NOT PUT THE STRINGS
00:18:19.83\00:18:23.06
ON THE FRONT OF HIS BOAT.
THUS, HE PROVOKED THE DEMONS.
00:18:23.06\00:18:28.20
BUT HOWEVER, HE WAS AMAZED
THAT HE CAUGHT A NUMBER OF FISH.
00:18:28.20\00:18:33.41
WHEN HE WENT BACK HE WAS
THE HEADMAN, HE WAS THE HEAD
00:18:33.41\00:18:35.61
CHIEF--THE CHIEF OF CHIEFS.
WHEN HE WENT BACK TO THE VILLAGE
00:18:35.61\00:18:38.95
THEY SAID, "ONE OF YOUR WIVES
HAS GIVEN BIRTH TO A LITTLE
00:18:38.95\00:18:43.42
BOY." AND SO, HE DIDN'T CALL HIM
00:18:43.42\00:18:46.62
RAGASO, WHICH
MEANT DEVIL STRINGS.
00:18:46.62\00:18:49.89
HE CALLED HIM KATA RAGASO.
THAT MEANS NO DEVIL STRINGS.
00:18:49.89\00:18:57.60
AROUND THIS TIME AN AMAZING
MAN CAME TO THE SOLOMON ISLANDS.
00:18:57.60\00:19:02.27
HIS NAME WAS CAPTAIN
JONES. WHAT A MAN WAS HE,
00:19:02.27\00:19:08.68
AN AMAZING MAN.
CAPTAIN JONES, HE WAS AN
00:19:08.68\00:19:12.21
ENGLISHMAN. AND HE WENT TO THE
00:19:12.21\00:19:14.95
SOLOMON ISLANDS EVEN
THOUGH THE BRITISH GOVERNMENT
00:19:14.95\00:19:17.55
SAID--BECAUSE THEY WERE LOOKING
AFTER THE SOLOMON ISLANDS,
00:19:17.55\00:19:20.36
"YOU SHOULDN'T GO
THERE. YOU'LL BE EATEN.
00:19:20.36\00:19:23.69
YOU'LL BE KILLED. THE
NATIVES ARE THE MOST SAVAGE
00:19:23.69\00:19:27.23
ANYWHERE ON THE
FACE OF THE EARTH."
00:19:27.23\00:19:33.13
BUT HE LANDED SAFELY
WITHOUT ANY MILITARY ESCORT.
00:19:33.13\00:19:37.27
AND HE MET THE OLD
CHIEF, WHO HAD THIS LITTLE BOY,
00:19:37.27\00:19:40.28
KATA RAGASO. AND THE
CHIEF WELCOMED THE WHITE
00:19:40.28\00:19:44.35
MAN AND WELCOMED
THE WHITE MAN'S GOD.
00:19:44.35\00:19:46.82
AND HE STARTED A LITTLE
SCHOOL. AND KATA RAGASO WAS
00:19:46.82\00:19:49.88
ONE OF TEN OR TWELVE
PUPILS IN THIS LITTLE SCHOOL.
00:19:49.88\00:19:54.02
KATA RAGASO GREW UP TO BECOME
THE CHIEF OF CHIEFS OF ALL THE
00:19:54.02\00:19:57.63
SOLOMON ISLANDS. HE
WAS INSTRUMENTAL UNDER GOD
00:19:57.63\00:20:03.00
AND LEADING THOUSANDS, MAYBE
TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE OUT
00:20:03.00\00:20:05.73
OF PAGANISM TO
CHRIST. WHAT A MAN HE WAS.
00:20:05.73\00:20:12.41
DURING THE SECOND WORLD WAR,
BECAUSE HE REFUSED TO TAKE LIFE
00:20:12.41\00:20:18.81
AND BECAUSE HE REFUSED TO BREAK
THE SABBATH HE WAS TAKEN BY A
00:20:18.81\00:20:23.02
MILITARY OFFICER AND
BEATEN ALMOST TO A PULP.
00:20:23.02\00:20:27.42
HIS NOSE WAS BROKEN. HIS
BODY WAS COVERED IN WOUNDS.
00:20:27.42\00:20:31.36
AND KATA RAGASO, AN ORDAINED
ADVENTIST MINISTER, WAS THROWN
00:20:31.36\00:20:33.70
INTO PRISON BLEEDING. AND
THEN THEY SAID, "BECAUSE YOU
00:20:33.70\00:20:38.13
WILL NOT TAKE LIFE AND BREAK THE
SABBATH," THEY TOOK HIM OUT AND
00:20:38.13\00:20:41.60
THE COMMANDING OFFICER SAID, "ON
THE COUNT OF THREE, SHOOT HIM.
00:20:41.60\00:20:45.67
PUT HIM BEFORE A FIRING SQUAD.
ONE, TWO--" HE COULD NOT SAY
00:20:45.67\00:20:49.61
THREE. HE SAID
IT OVER AND OVER AND
00:20:49.61\00:20:53.21
OVER AGAIN, "ONE,
TWO--" AND COULD NOT SAY THREE.
00:20:53.21\00:20:57.89
AND THUS THEY LET HIM
GO. A PRINCE AMONG MEN.
00:20:57.89\00:21:05.56
SOMEBODY SAID OF THIS MAN,
THE LOOK UPON HIS FACE MAKES YOU
00:21:05.56\00:21:08.86
THINK THAT CHRIST WAS BLACK.
AS A LITTLE BOY GROWING UP IN
00:21:08.86\00:21:14.07
BRISBANE, QUEENS, THERE IN
AUSTRALIA, I WENT TO A CAMP
00:21:14.07\00:21:16.60
MEETING AND I SAW THERE A
MAN WITH THE FACE OF AN ANGEL,
00:21:16.60\00:21:21.41
KATA RAGASO. AND HE
PUT HIS HAND UPON MY HEAD
00:21:21.41\00:21:28.95
AND BLESSED ME
IN THE NAME OF GOD.
00:21:28.95\00:21:31.49
FROM THAT TIME ONWARDS I HAD
A PASSION TO BE A MISSIONARY,
00:21:31.49\00:21:38.09
AND TO WIN SOULS OUT
OF DARKNESS TO CHRIST.
00:21:38.09\00:21:44.67
LATER ON WHEN I WAS GROWING UP
IN BRISBANE ON THE BANKS OF THE
00:21:44.67\00:21:48.67
BRISBANE RIVER, A BIG SHIP
PULLED UP ACROSS THE RIVER.
00:21:48.67\00:21:55.41
MY MOTHER WHO WAS JUST
A NEW CHRISTIAN TOOK ME ON
00:21:55.41\00:21:58.41
THE BULIMBA FERRY ACROSS
00:21:58.41\00:22:00.48
THE BOSOM OF THE BRISBANE RIVER
AND TOOK ME INTO THE BOWS OF
THIS GREAT SHIP THAT WAS
00:22:00.55\00:22:06.22
GOING TO GO OUT TO THE ISLANDS.
AND I MET THERE A WOMAN WHO WAS
00:22:06.22\00:22:14.30
A SAINT OF GOD. I WILL NEVER,
NEVER, EVER FORGET HER. HER NAME
00:22:14.30\00:22:21.60
WAS ELMA WILES. AND SHE TOOK ME
ON HER KNEE AND TOLD ME THAT SHE
FELT THAT GOD WANTED ME TO DO
00:22:21.60\00:22:29.41
SOMETHING GREAT FOR HIM. I
WAS ONLY PERHAPS 5 YEARS, 4 OR 5
00:22:29.41\00:22:34.95
YEARS OF AGE. SHE HAD GONE OUT
TO THE MISSION FIELD WITH HER
HUSBAND, NORMAN. AND THEY'D ONLY
00:22:34.95\00:22:42.42
BEEN THERE A PERIOD OF MONTHS
BEFORE HE GOT BLACK WATER FEVER
AND THERE WERE NO OTHER PEOPLE
00:22:42.42\00:22:50.00
FROM AUSTRALIA ANYWHERE FOR
HUNDREDS OF MILES. AND SHE WAS
IN HEADHUNTER TERRITORY.
00:22:50.00\00:22:58.34
AND NORMAN GOT BLACK WATER FEVER
00:22:58.34\00:23:00.48
AND HE DIED. AND
THERE SHE WAS A GIRL FROM
00:23:00.54\00:23:04.21
AVONDALE COLLEGE--NO FROM THE
AUSTRALASIAN MISSIONARY COLLEGE,
00:23:04.21\00:23:08.22
IT WAS STILL CALLED AVONDALE.
HAD A DUAL NAME IN THOSE DAYS.
00:23:08.22\00:23:14.76
AND SHE BURIED HER
HUSBAND WITH HER OWN HANDS.
00:23:14.76\00:23:18.16
DUG IN THE SAND AND BURIED HIM.
00:23:18.16\00:23:20.76
AND THEN FOR DAYS SHE SAT
ON THE GRAVE AND DID NOT MOVE,
00:23:20.83\00:23:25.20
BECAUSE SHE KNEW THAT THEY
WOULD DIG HIM UP AND EAT HIM.
00:23:25.20\00:23:32.61
THEY WERE A SPECIAL
BREED WERE THESE MISSIONARIES.
00:23:32.61\00:23:36.95
THEY HAD THE REAL STUFF.
THEY WERE NOT WIMPS AND THEY
00:23:36.95\00:23:40.42
WERE NOT
SUPERCILIOUS RELIGIOUS PEOPLE.
00:23:40.42\00:23:44.75
THEY WERE SOLDIERS OF CHRIST.
A FRIENDLY NATIVE CARRIED WORD
00:23:44.75\00:23:51.09
TO ANOTHER MISSION STATION AND
THEY SENT A BOAT AND THEY TOOK
HER BACK TO AUSTRALIA.
00:23:51.09\00:23:55.93
AND WHEN SHE RECOVERED FROM HER
GRIEVING SHE WENT BACK. SHE TOOK
00:23:55.93\00:24:03.87
ME ON HER KNEE AND SAID, "ONE
DAY YOU MUST GO." AND THUS WHEN
00:24:03.87\00:24:09.54
PASTOR HAROLD HARKER,
WHO WAS OUR OVERSEAS MANAGER
00:24:09.54\00:24:13.48
SUGGESTED WE GO TO HONIARA, I
FELT IT WAS A CALL FROM GOD. AND
GOD BLESSED THOSE MEETINGS.
00:24:13.48\00:24:21.82
I WANT YOU TO KNOW--LISTEN
TO ME. I WANT TO THROW OUT A
00:24:21.82\00:24:27.83
CHALLENGE TO EVERY PREACHER,
EVERY MINISTER, EVERY ELDER,
EVERY CHURCH LEADER,
00:24:27.83\00:24:35.00
EVERY LAYPERSON. THE GREATEST
DAYS FOR THE PREACHING OF THE
00:24:35.00\00:24:40.94
GOSPEL OF CHRIST ARE NOT OVER;
THE BEST DAYS ARE STILL TO COME.
YOU SEE, I'VE GONE TO SO MANY
00:24:40.94\00:24:47.08
PLACES WHERE PEOPLE TELL ME
IT CAN'T BE DONE. I WANT YOU TO
00:24:47.08\00:24:55.16
KNOW WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE
POSSIBLE. AND WHAT WE NEED IS TO
GET RID OF THIS NEGATIVE
00:24:55.16\00:25:03.13
ATTITUDE AND START TO BECOME
FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST, NOT
FOLLOWERS OF MEN. WHEN WE GOT
00:25:03.13\00:25:15.74
THERE WE HAD A LOT OF WORK TO
DO. I HAVE A SMALL TEAM, I
BOASTFULLY SAY, I THINK IT'S
00:25:15.74\00:25:21.68
THE BEST THERE IS.
00:25:21.68\00:25:23.69
WE HIRED THIS GREAT
OUTDOOR NATIONAL SOCCER STADIUM.
00:25:23.75\00:25:28.69
AND WE HAD TO PREPARE THE
STAGE, THE SCREENS, THE TOWERS.
00:25:28.69\00:25:34.30
DAVID, DONN, BOB, AND DANIEL LED
OUT IN THIS WORK ASSISTED BY THE
00:25:34.30\00:25:41.60
GREATEST GROUP OF
PEOPLE I'VE SEEN ANYWHERE.
00:25:41.60\00:25:49.61
YOU HAVE A LOOK AT
THESE SCREENS, FOLKS.
00:25:49.61\00:25:52.68
WE TRIED TO GET SOME PEOPLE,
I WON'T TELL YOU WHEN, TO DO IT
00:25:52.68\00:25:59.29
FOR US. THEY SAID
WE CAN DO IT FOR YOU
00:25:59.29\00:26:02.49
FOR $250,000. WE
SAID, "ARE YOU PLANNING YOUR
00:26:02.49\00:26:07.30
RETIREMENT, ARE YOU?"
$250,000, THE SOLOMON ISLANDERS
00:26:07.30\00:26:13.13
STEPPED INTO THE BREACH AND THEY
BUILT THE STAGE AND THE SCREENS
00:26:13.13\00:26:17.21
AND THE TOWERS
FOR UNDER $20,000.
00:26:17.21\00:26:21.21
AND THEY DID IT MORE EFFECTIVELY
AND MORE EFFICIENTLY THAN I HAVE
00:26:21.21\00:26:24.81
SEEN ANYWHERE IN THE
WORLD. THESE ARE THE CHILDREN
00:26:24.81\00:26:32.22
OF KATA RAGASO.
THESE ARE THE CHILDREN
00:26:32.22\00:26:35.49
AND THE GRANDCHILDREN
OF THE HEADHUNTERS.
00:26:35.49\00:26:37.56
YOU CAN GET SOME IDEA OF THE
SIZE OF THE SCREENS AND THE SIZE
00:26:37.56\00:26:42.73
OF THE FOOTBALL FIELD.
THE LARGEST CROWD THAT THAT
00:26:42.73\00:26:47.07
NATIONAL SOCCER STADIUM HAD EVER
HAD WAS 22,000 SOULS WHO CAME TO
00:26:47.07\00:26:53.41
SEE A NATIONAL MATCH. I
WANT TO TELL YOU THE GOSPEL IS
00:26:53.41\00:26:58.48
MORE POWERFUL THAN
FOOTBALL. YOU LISTENING TO ME?
00:26:58.48\00:27:04.95
THE PA SYSTEM HAD BEEN
PUT TOGETHER BY BOB LUDWIG
00:27:04.95\00:27:10.23
AND DONN BEAGLE. WE
PURCHASED IT HERE IN THE
00:27:10.23\00:27:13.29
UNITED STATES. A DEAL,
IT COST AROUND $35,000.
00:27:13.29\00:27:18.53
WE DON'T HAVE ALL OUR PROJECTORS
HERE IN THE CHURCH NOW.
00:27:18.53\00:27:20.94
THAT'S WHY THE SCREENS WERE A
LITTLE, NOT QUITE AS STRONG AS
00:27:20.94\00:27:24.01
WE'D LIKE THEM TO BE. AND
WE DON'T HAVE PROJECTORS FOR
00:27:24.01\00:27:27.01
THE CENTER
SCREEN, BUT THAT'S OKAY.
00:27:27.01\00:27:29.08
BECAUSE WE FLEW 4 GIANT
PROJECTORS WITH 25, 10, NO,
00:27:29.08\00:27:37.22
15, 25, WITH
50,000 LUMENS OF POWER.
00:27:37.22\00:27:41.42
WE FLEW THOSE OUT TO THE
SOLOMONS AT THE COST OF $30,000.
00:27:41.42\00:27:46.49
YOU SAY, "WHY NOT?" IT
IS THE GREATEST, THE MOST
00:27:46.49\00:27:50.60
IMPORTANT THING
IN ALL OF THE WORLD.
00:27:50.60\00:27:53.13
IF YOU WANT TO SPEND YOUR MONEY
PROPERLY, PUT IT INTO PREACHING
00:27:53.13\00:27:55.00
THE GOSPEL. THIS
WORLD IS GOING TO BURN UP
00:27:55.00\00:27:58.21
SOON. AND THEN WE
SENT OUT A HEAP OF
00:27:58.21\00:28:04.48
OTHER STUFF ALSO BY CONTAINER.
AND WE SENT THEM 10,000 BIBLES.
00:28:04.48\00:28:09.95
AND YOU, THIS CHURCH, AND
OUR SUPPORTERS MADE IT POSSIBLE.
00:28:09.95\00:28:14.16
AND IT'S THE BEST THING YOU'VE
EVER DONE IN SPENDING YOUR
00:28:14.16\00:28:16.69
MONEY. THE SOCCER
STADIUM--HUGE PLACE.
00:28:16.69\00:28:21.06
WE HAD A 2-WEEK
WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY.
00:28:21.06\00:28:24.53
YOU SAY, "WELL,
THAT'S NOT LONG ENOUGH."
00:28:24.53\00:28:26.53
I WANT YOU TO KNOW, MY
FRIEND, THE LORD IS GOING TO DO
00:28:26.53\00:28:29.47
A SHORT WORK ON THIS
EARTH IN THE LAST DAYS.
00:28:29.47\00:28:33.07
THE LORD DOESN'T NEED ALL THE
TIME WE THINK THE LORD NEEDS.
00:28:33.07\00:28:36.48
AND WE HAD 2 WEEKS AND THAT
WAS TO SET UP THE STAGE AND THE
00:28:36.48\00:28:39.61
SCREENS. AND THESE
ARE TINY BLACKBOARDS,
00:28:39.61\00:28:44.09
BUT GIANT BLACKBOARDS
LIKE THESE--YOU KNOW, WE HAD--
00:28:44.09\00:28:47.69
I'D IMAGINE BLACKBOARDS
EIGHT TIMES BIGGER THAN THESE.
00:28:47.69\00:28:52.63
AND YOU CAN SEE THE SCREENS DOWN
THE END THERE AND WE WENT AHEAD
00:28:52.63\00:28:58.00
IN FAITH. AND IT WAS HOT.
00:28:58.00\00:29:01.47
IT'S RIGHT NEAR THE EQUATOR.
I DON'T MIND GOING TO RUSSIA IN
00:29:01.47\00:29:05.47
THE MIDDLE OF WINTER, BUT
I DON'T LIKE THE REAL HEAT.
00:29:05.47\00:29:08.08
IT WAS HOT AND STEAMY.
IT WAS LIKE TAKING A SAUNA
00:29:08.08\00:29:11.68
ALL DAY LONG. NOW,
WHO WAS THE AUDIENCE?
00:29:11.68\00:29:15.62
WELL, THEIR GRANDPARENTS
HAD BEEN DEVIL WORSHIPERS.
00:29:15.62\00:29:19.69
AND ONCE UPON A TIME
THEY HAD BEEN CANNIBALS.
00:29:19.69\00:29:22.56
THESE HAD BEEN FIERCE PEOPLE.
AND THEN THERE CAME THE FIRST
00:29:22.56\00:29:27.60
MISSIONARIES. THERE
WAS THE GREAT OLD SEA
00:29:27.60\00:29:31.73
CAPTAIN OF WHOM I
HAVE REFERRED TODAY.
00:29:31.73\00:29:35.00
BUT THEN THERE CAME OTHER
MISSIONARIES AND MY HEART IS
00:29:35.00\00:29:40.14
OVERWHELMED BY THE MISSIONARIES
WHO CAME TO THIS PART OF THE
00:29:40.14\00:29:45.48
WORLD, BECAUSE BASICALLY
WHAT HAPPENED WAS THIS.
00:29:45.48\00:29:49.08
THEY CAME FROM AUSTRALIA
AND THEY WERE GRADUATES
00:29:49.08\00:29:52.09
OF THE COLLEGE. AND
THE MISSION BOAT BASICALLY
00:29:52.09\00:29:55.29
DROPPED THEM OFF ON THE
BEACH AND SAID, "GOD BLESS YOU."
00:29:55.29\00:29:59.76
TAKE YOUR SUITCASES AND
BUILD A HOUSE FOR YOURSELVES
00:29:59.76\00:30:04.60
AND BUILD A CHURCH
AND BUILD A SCHOOL.
00:30:04.60\00:30:09.27
AND WIN SOULS TO
CHRIST. AND THEY DID.
00:30:09.27\00:30:14.88
THEY NEVER COMPLAINED. AND
THEIR NAMES ARE IMMORTALIZED
00:30:14.88\00:30:19.68
IN HEAVEN. AND OF
COURSE THERE WAS MALARIA.
00:30:19.68\00:30:27.16
SO, I'M GOING TO SHOW
YOU THE AUDIENCE NOW THAT WE
00:30:27.16\00:30:30.03
PREACHED TO. THE
AUDIENCE BACKSLIDDEN
00:30:30.03\00:30:32.69
BELIEVERS, PEOPLE TURNING
BACK TO THE OLD GODS, THEY'RE
00:30:32.69\00:30:37.00
BRINGING THE GODS
BACK OUT OF THE JUNGLE.
00:30:37.00\00:30:40.40
BELIEVERS OF VARIOUS FAITHS
IN SEARCH OF THE WORD OF GOD,
00:30:40.40\00:30:44.54
YOUNG AND OLD. THE
MEETINGS WENT FOR TEN
00:30:44.54\00:30:48.14
NIGHTS, ONE SABBATH MORNING,
PLUS TWO DOUBLE SESSIONS.
00:30:48.14\00:30:54.28
I PREACHED FROM 7 TO 8 AND
SAY, "CAN I HAVE A LITTLE PAUSE?
00:30:54.28\00:30:59.15
HAVE A DRINK?" "YES."
00:30:59.15\00:30:59.89
THEN I'D PREACH ANOTHER SESSION.
AND WE WENT THROUGH THE GOSPEL.
00:30:59.89\00:31:06.29
I WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW
THIS. I WANT TO SAY THIS TO OUR
00:31:06.29\00:31:08.76
FRIENDS AND OUR SUPPORTERS.
WHEN WE GO TO A PLACE WE HAVE A
00:31:08.76\00:31:15.20
NUMBER OF AIMS, WE
HAVE A NUMBER OF GOALS.
00:31:15.20\00:31:19.94
BUT OUR MAIN GOAL IS TO
TELL PEOPLE ABOUT CHRIST
00:31:19.94\00:31:23.28
AND HIS LOVE. WE
BELIEVE, MY FRIEND, THAT THE
00:31:23.28\00:31:28.48
GOSPEL IS STILL THE POWER OF GOD
FOR THE SALVATION OF EVERYONE
00:31:28.48\00:31:35.16
WHO BELIEVES, WHO TRUSTS,
AND WHO RELIES UPON CHRIST.
00:31:35.16\00:31:40.43
WE BELIEVE THAT THE GOSPEL IS
THE GREATEST POWER IN THE WORLD
00:31:40.43\00:31:44.93
TODAY AND IF IT'S NOT WORKING,
MY FRIEND, IN YOUR LIFE,
00:31:44.93\00:31:49.27
IT'S BECAUSE YOU DON'T BELIEVE.
BUT THE GOSPEL RECEIVED INTO
00:31:49.27\00:31:53.41
THE HEART CHANGES THE
SOUL. WHAT AN AUDIENCE.
00:31:53.41\00:31:59.01
WE STARTED WITH
AROUND 15,000 PEOPLE.
00:31:59.01\00:32:02.62
WE'D ASK SOME OF THE LOCALS,
"HOW MANY DO YOU THINK WILL
00:32:02.62\00:32:04.82
COME?" THEY SAID 6,000.
00:32:04.82\00:32:08.29
"WE EXPECT 6,000." WE
DID TELEVISION ADVERTISING
00:32:08.29\00:32:13.16
SUCH AS NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE
IN THAT PART OF THE WORLD.
00:32:13.16\00:32:16.73
AND WE HAD
15,000 FOR THE OPENING.
00:32:16.73\00:32:19.87
AND SOON IT HAD BROKEN
THE RECORD OF 22-23,000,
00:32:19.87\00:32:24.27
25,000, THEN IT WAS 30,000. THEN
IT WAS 35,000 PEOPLE. AND WE
DON'T KNOW IF THERE WERE
00:32:24.34\00:32:33.28
MORE THAN 35,000 PEOPLE BECAUSE
EVERY INCH OF THE PLACE WAS
TAKEN IN THESE--OVER THERE YOU
00:32:33.28\00:32:42.56
COULD SEE PEOPLE--THERE'S ABOUT
2,000 PEOPLE IN THAT BUILDING.
AND THERE WAS A HOSPITAL OVER
00:32:42.56\00:32:49.40
THE ROAD AND THEY BROUGHT OUT
THE PATIENTS TO HEAR THE WORD OF
GOD IN THE HOSPITAL.
00:32:49.40\00:32:54.00
AND THERE WAS A BIG HILL BACK ON
MY RIGHT, AT THE BACK. AND THAT
HILL WAS FILLED WITH
00:32:54.00\00:33:01.54
PEOPLE. I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW
MY FRIEND, IT WASN'T THE DOING
00:33:01.54\00:33:06.21
OF A MAN. IT WAS THE DOING
OF THE THIRD PERSON, OF THE
00:33:06.21\00:33:12.15
GUARDIAN, THE HOLY SPIRIT. THE
HOLY SPIRIT IS ALIVE AND WELL ON
00:33:12.15\00:33:19.63
PLANET EARTH. YOU KNOW THE
TEXT. I JUST QUOTED ROMANS 1:16.
00:33:19.63\00:33:22.40
I'M NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL.
IT'S THE POWER OF GOD UNTO
00:33:22.40\00:33:26.20
SALVATION TO EVERYONE WHO
BELIEVES, TO THE JEW FIRST AND
00:33:26.20\00:33:31.41
ALSO TO THE GREEK. NOW, YOU'LL
NEED A MICROPHONE. YOU READY
00:33:31.41\00:33:41.68
MADAM? MRS. SUSAN PIRAINO CAME
WITH US. I CAN'T GET ANY OF THE
REST OF THE CREW TO COME UP,
00:33:41.68\00:33:47.56
BECAUSE THEY'RE RUNNING THE
PROGRAM TODAY. BUT SUSAN, YOU
00:33:47.56\00:33:52.63
COME ON OVER. AND LET ME SAY
GOOD MORNING. >> GOOD MORNING.
00:33:52.63\00:33:58.47
>> ARE YOU GLAD THAT
YOU WENT TO THE SOLOMON'S?
00:33:58.47\00:34:01.07
>> AM I EVER GLAD I
WENT THERE. YES, INDEED.
00:34:01.07\00:34:03.74
>> YOU LIKE THE
CLIMATE? >> NO, IT WAS VERY HOT
00:34:03.74\00:34:06.74
AND HUMID. >> I
KNOW JAVIER WAS SORT OF--
00:34:06.74\00:34:10.08
>> ALWAYS WET. >> YEAH, I KNOW.
00:34:10.08\00:34:12.61
>> SORT OF JUST
DRIPPED DOWN YOUR BODY.
00:34:12.61\00:34:14.35
>> I KNOW. IT'S NOT
A PLACE WHERE YOU PUT
00:34:14.35\00:34:16.35
ON A LOT OF
WEIGHT, THAT'S FOR SURE.
00:34:16.35\00:34:18.49
BUT YOU CAN LOSE SOME. TELL ME
FROM YOUR SOUL, FROM YOUR HEART,
00:34:18.49\00:34:25.36
WHAT MOVED YOU? WHAT TOUCHED
YOU? >> WELL, I'VE BEEN TO--THIS
IS LIKE MY 18TH CAMPAIGN, BUT
00:34:25.36\00:34:30.13
THIS ONE FOR SOME REASON JUST
HIT THE HEART MORE THAN ANY OF
THE OTHERS, BECAUSE, I THINK, AS
00:34:30.13\00:34:36.94
IN ROMAN SAYS WE SAW THE POWER
OF GOD. AND EVERY NIGHT WE SAW
00:34:36.94\00:34:42.21
THE POWER AT WORK. AND I KNOW
YOU'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT SOME
THINGS THAT HAPPENED
00:34:42.21\00:34:44.95
THERE, BUT JUST THE PEOPLE THAT
WOULD COME AND HOW IT CONTINUED
00:34:44.95\00:34:49.62
TO GROW. AND THE PEOPLE WERE
OUTSIDE AND SOMETIMES WE SAW
THEM HOLDING UP THE PHONES.
00:34:49.62\00:34:55.42
YOU KNOW, HERE WE HAVE A PROBLEM
WITH EVERYBODY BRINGING THEIR
PHONE TO TEXT, TAKE PICTURES.
00:34:55.42\00:34:59.43
AND WE THOUGHT, "OH, HERE THEY
ARE WITH ALL THEIR PHONES NOW."
BUT THE REASON THEY WERE HOLDING
00:34:59.43\00:35:03.00
UP THEIR PHONES--THEY WERE LIKE
THIS, IS BECAUSE THEY HAD FAMILY
MEMBERS AT HOME OR OTHER ISLANDS
00:35:03.00\00:35:07.94
THAT THEY WANTED TO HEAR THE
MEETINGS SO THEY WERE USING
THEIR PHONES AS, LIKE A RADIO,
00:35:07.94\00:35:13.88
SO THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS COULD
HEAR. AND THAT WAS JUST AMAZING
00:35:13.88\00:35:17.28
TO SEE. >> WAS IT A
NOISY IRREVERENT AUDIENCE?
00:35:17.28\00:35:20.75
>> NO, AS YOU CAN SEE THERE WAS
TONS OF CHILDREN, BABIES, LITTLE
ONES, JUST THOUSANDS OF THEM,
00:35:20.75\00:35:26.09
BUT YOU DID NOT HEAR A WORD
AT ALL. YOU WOULDN'T HEAR THEM
00:35:26.09\00:35:30.29
STIR. YOU WOULDN'T HEAR THEM
CRY. YOU WOULDN'T HEAR ANYTHING.
AND I'M LOOKING AT THE AUDIENCE,
00:35:30.29\00:35:34.46
'CAUSE I WAS OUT TAKING
PICTURES. AND I'M THINKING, "HOW
00:35:34.46\00:35:36.67
ARE THESE KIDS SO QUIET?" THEY
WERE SORT OF JUST FIXATED TO THE
STAGE AND TO HEAR YOU
00:35:36.67\00:35:43.14
PREACH. AND ONE OF THE THINGS
THAT I FOUND WAS INCREDIBLE IS
00:35:43.14\00:35:47.74
THE DAY WE LEFT WE HAD PEOPLE
COMING TO THE MISSION FLATS TO
SAY THANK YOU TO YOU FOR COMING
00:35:47.74\00:35:53.75
AND FOR PREACHING. AND WE
HAD ONE YOUNG MAN WHO WAS VERY
00:35:53.75\00:35:56.89
TEARY. AND HE CAME AND HE SAID,
"YOU KNOW PASTOR CARTER WE HAVE
HAD MANY PREACHERS COME TO THE
00:35:56.89\00:36:00.82
ISLANDS," AND HE SAID, "BUT WHEN
YOU PREACHED WE ALL UNDERSTOOD
00:36:00.82\00:36:06.93
IT. WE UNDERSTOOD EVERYTHING YOU
SAID." BECAUSE THEY SPEAK PIDGIN
00:36:06.93\00:36:10.67
AND SO SOME OF THEM IT'S HARD TO
UNDERSTAND. BUT YOU HE SAID, "WE
00:36:10.67\00:36:13.07
NEVER UNDERSTOOD THE REST OF THE
PREACHERS, BUT WE UNDERSTOOD
EVERYTHING YOU SAID.
00:36:13.07\00:36:17.47
AND WE UNDERSTOOD THE GOSPEL."
>> I THINK THAT'S A MIRACLE. >>
00:36:17.47\00:36:21.61
YES IT IS. BECAUSE THAT JUST
SHOWS THE POWER OF THE HOLY
SPIRIT. >> YEAH, I KNOW.
00:36:21.61\00:36:24.68
IT'S LIKE THE GIFT OF
TONGUES. IT REALLY IS. >> IT IS.
00:36:24.68\00:36:27.08
AND YOU KNOW, HE SAID--HE WAS
CRYING AND HE SAID, YOU KNOW, "I
HOPE I CAN SHARE THIS WITH
00:36:27.08\00:36:32.02
MY FAMILY, BECAUSE THEY'RE
IN OTHER ISLANDS." AND I JUST
00:36:32.02\00:36:35.42
RECEIVED AN E-MAIL FROM
PASTOR WAYNE BOEHM, WHO'S
00:36:35.42\00:36:37.43
THE MISSION PRESIDENT
THERE. >> WHAT A GREAT GUY.
00:36:37.49\00:36:38.69
>> OH, HE'S WONDERFUL.
WHAT A JOB HE HAS THERE NOW.
00:36:38.69\00:36:42.20
BUT HE JUST SENT ME AN E-MAIL
AND HE SAID THAT THEY'VE HAD
00:36:42.20\00:36:44.60
VARIOUS BAPTISMS OF PEOPLE
FROM OTHER DENOMINATIONS--
00:36:44.60\00:36:49.54
>> THE PRESIDENT
OF ONE OTHER CHURCH.
00:36:49.54\00:36:51.27
>> YEAH, THE PRESIDENT OF
ONE CHURCH BAPTIZED AND NOW IS
00:36:51.27\00:36:53.27
BRINGING A LOT OF
HIS CHURCH MEMBERS.
00:36:53.27\00:36:55.01
BUT HE HAD SOMEBODY
ELSE BAPTIZED AS WELL.
00:36:55.01\00:36:57.35
AND HE IS NOW
WANTING TO GO TO HIS ISLANDS.
00:36:57.35\00:37:00.55
SO HE'S WANTING TO TAKE
THE TRUTH THAT HE HEARD HERE AT
00:37:00.55\00:37:04.42
SOLOMON ISLANDS, TO HIS ISLANDS,
BECAUSE HE WANTS HIS PEOPLE TO
KNOW THE TRUTH AS WELL.
00:37:04.49\00:37:07.89
>> WERE YOU BLESSED? >> OH,
I WAS BLESSED MORE THAN EVER.
00:37:07.89\00:37:10.06
>> HALLELUJAH.
PRAISE GOD. GOD BLESS YOU.
00:37:10.06\00:37:13.43
>> THANK YOU. >> THANK
YOU, SUSIE. GOOD STORY.
00:37:13.43\00:37:18.67
NOW LISTEN, MY FRIENDS. I SAY
THIS TO THE GLORY OF GOD. GOD
HAS GIVEN ME A LITTLE TEAM,
00:37:18.67\00:37:27.81
BUT I THINK
THEY'RE SECOND TO NONE.
00:37:27.81\00:37:29.81
DAVID DOES THE TELEVISION
WORK. DONN AND BOB ON THE SOUND.
00:37:29.88\00:37:35.02
YOU DON'T GET
BETTER GUYS ON THE SOUND.
00:37:35.02\00:37:36.82
I MEAN, BOB HAS DONE THE
SOUND FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF
00:37:36.82\00:37:40.42
PRESIDENTS OF THE U.S.A.
DANIEL ON THE COMPUTERS WITH
00:37:40.42\00:37:43.89
CARLOS. GREAT JOB.
00:37:43.89\00:37:46.96
SUSIE, JAVIER, WHO
WAS--GUESS WHAT JAVIER DID?
00:37:46.96\00:37:51.67
HE WAS THE CHEF.
DON'T EVER SAY COOK, FOLKS.
00:37:51.67\00:37:54.54
HE'LL GET MAD AT YOU.
PASTOR HAROLD HARKER, WHO WAS
00:37:54.54\00:37:57.27
THE CAMPAIGN MANAGER.
PASTOR WAYNE BOEHM, WHO IS THE
00:37:57.27\00:38:01.88
PRESIDENT OF THE MISSION.
CHILD OF GOD, SAINTS OF GOD,
00:38:01.88\00:38:05.95
THESE FOLKS. I LOVE THEM.
00:38:05.95\00:38:08.08
CAROL BOEHM FROM MY
OLD CHURCH AT WAHROONGA.
00:38:08.08\00:38:11.82
GOD BLESS YOU CAROL.
SHARON WHO SANG LIKE AN ANGEL.
00:38:11.82\00:38:18.76
PLUS THE SOLOMON ISLANDERS.
I WANT TO TELL YOU WHAT IS SO
00:38:18.76\00:38:24.13
GOOD ABOUT IT.
SOMETIMES YOU RUN A CAMPAIGN AND
00:38:24.13\00:38:27.07
YOU KNOW THAT THERE'S SO
MUCH ANTAGONISM TO WHAT YOU'RE
00:38:27.07\00:38:31.11
DOING. BUT BEFORE
I PREACH THERE EVERY
00:38:31.11\00:38:34.28
NIGHT, THERE WAS A BIG GROUP OF
SOLOMON ISLANDERS, MEN AND WOMEN
00:38:34.28\00:38:39.48
WHO WERE WAITING AND
THEY WOULD GET AROUND ME.
00:38:39.48\00:38:42.82
AND THEY WOULD LAY THEIR
HANDS ON ME AND THEY WOULD PRAY
00:38:42.82\00:38:46.42
FOR ME. AND THEY
TALKED IN PIDGIN, BUT I
00:38:46.42\00:38:48.96
UNDERSTOOD WHAT
THEY WERE SAYING.
00:38:48.96\00:38:50.16
I KNEW WHAT THEY WERE SAYING.
BUT TO KNOW THAT YOU'RE BEING
00:38:50.16\00:38:54.66
SUPPORTED BY THE
PRAYERS OF THE SAINTS.
00:38:54.66\00:38:59.13
AND THEY WOULD PRAY THAT GOD
WOULD HOLD BACK THE BAD WEATHER.
00:38:59.13\00:39:02.80
NOW, THIS IS MY PRAYER GROUP.
A DIFFERENT GROUP EVERY NIGHT.
00:39:02.80\00:39:08.68
I WANT TO TELL
YOU FOLKS SOMETHING.
00:39:08.68\00:39:09.81
THE GOSPEL HAS GOT POWER.
YOU CAN SEE IT IN THE LIVES THAT
00:39:09.81\00:39:15.42
HAVE BEEN CHANGED.
NOW, I THINK I SHOULD READ A
00:39:15.42\00:39:18.55
TEXT TO YOU. I WANT
YOU TO COME OVER HERE TO
00:39:18.55\00:39:19.89
EPHESIANS 6. NOW,
COME OVER HERE FAST TO
00:39:19.89\00:39:23.56
EPHESIANS 6:10-13.
00:39:23.56\00:39:27.03
EPHESIANS 6:10-13. YOU GOT IT?
00:39:27.10\00:39:33.00
"FINALLY, BE STRONG IN THE
LORD AND IN HIS MIGHTY POWER."
00:39:33.00\00:39:35.94
THE BIBLE SAYS DON'T
BE A SPIRITUAL WEAKLING.
00:39:35.94\00:39:39.21
BE STRONG.
DON'T BE A COMPLAINER.
00:39:39.21\00:39:42.14
"PUT ON THE FULL ARMOR OF GOD
SO THAT YOU CAN TAKE YOUR STAND
00:39:42.14\00:39:45.15
AGAINST THE DEVIL'S
SCHEMES." THERE IS A DEVIL.
00:39:45.15\00:39:49.95
"FOR OUR STRUGGLE IS NOT AGAINST
FLESH AND BLOOD, BUT AGAINST THE
00:39:49.95\00:39:52.95
RULERS, AGAINST THE AUTHORITIES,
AGAINST THE POWERS OF THIS DARK
00:39:52.95\00:39:58.16
WORLD AND AGAINST THE SPIRITUAL
FORCES OF EVIL IN THE HEAVENLY
00:39:58.16\00:40:03.80
REALMS. THEREFORE
PUT ON THE FULL ARMOR
00:40:03.80\00:40:07.60
OF GOD, SO THAT WHEN THE DAY OF
EVIL COMES, YOU MAY BE ABLE TO
00:40:07.60\00:40:12.27
STAND YOUR GROUND, AND
AFTER YOU'VE DONE EVERYTHING,"
00:40:12.27\00:40:16.01
WHAT DOES IT SAY? TO STAND.
00:40:16.01\00:40:18.88
NOW, I'M GOING TO TELL YOU FOLKS
SOME THINGS AND I WANT YOU TO
00:40:18.88\00:40:23.75
LISTEN VERY CAREFULLY. THE NIGHT
I WAS GOING TO SPEAK ON
SPIRITISM, I FELT A STRONG
00:40:23.75\00:40:34.56
CONVICTION THAT SOMETHING WAS
GOING TO HAPPEN. THAT WE WERE
00:40:34.56\00:40:40.94
GOING TO BE UNDER ATTACK IN THE
MEETING. SO, WHEN WE HAD LUNCH
TOGETHER WITH JAVIER AND SUSIE
00:40:40.94\00:40:46.54
AND ALL THE TEAM, I SAID,
"FOLKS, I HAVE A CONVICTION THAT
SOMETHING'S GOING TO HAPPEN
00:40:46.54\00:40:50.75
TONIGHT AND WE NEED TO BE ON OUR
GUARD." SO, I PRAYED WITH THEM.
AND DAVID MET WITH HIS GROUP AND
00:40:50.75\00:40:55.95
SAID, "DON'T LAUGH ABOUT THIS.
WE'RE IN A PLACE WHERE THE DEVIL
00:40:55.95\00:41:01.42
IS BAREFACED." IN AMERICA AND
AUSTRALIA HE'S TWO FACED, BUT
HERE HE'S BAREFACED.
00:41:01.42\00:41:06.63
SOON AS I WALKED OUT ON THE
STAGE AND ANNOUNCED THE TOPIC
THAT I WAS GOING TO TALK ON
00:41:06.63\00:41:12.73
SPIRITISM. SOON AS I SAID IT,
THERE CAME A TREMENDOUS GUST OF
00:41:12.73\00:41:19.01
WIND. JUST ABOUT BLEW ME OFF
THE STAGE. AND THEN THE HEAVENS
00:41:19.01\00:41:23.55
OPENED UP AND THIS WAS THE FIRST
TIME IT HAD HAPPENED. IT STARTED
00:41:23.55\00:41:27.48
TO RAIN. AND THE
RAIN--YOU CAN SEE IT HERE.
00:41:27.55\00:41:29.72
THE RAIN CAME DOWN AND
IT CAME DOWN IN BUCKETS.
00:41:29.72\00:41:33.56
SO, I THOUGHT
WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN?
00:41:33.56\00:41:35.56
WE'RE GOING TO LOSE THIS ENTIRE
AUDIENCE OF 30,000 PEOPLE.
00:41:35.56\00:41:41.53
SO, I WALKED--I WAS
IN THE RAIN, OF COURSE.
00:41:41.53\00:41:44.00
NOWHERE TO GO. WHERE
WOULD YOU WANT--WHY WOULD
00:41:44.00\00:41:45.87
YOU WANT TO RUN AWAY?
SO, I SAID TO THE AUDIENCE,
00:41:45.87\00:41:51.34
"I'M ASKING YOU IN THE
NAME OF CHRIST TO STAY WITH ME.
00:41:51.34\00:41:53.94
THIS IS AN ATTACK BY THE
PRINCE OF THE POWER OF THE AIR.
00:41:53.94\00:41:58.28
AND I'M ASKING YOU
TONIGHT TO STAY WITH ME."
00:41:58.28\00:41:59.68
YOU WANT TO KNOW SOMETHING?
OUT OF AN AUDIENCE OF MORE THAN
00:41:59.68\00:42:03.28
30,000, WE LOST
LESS THAN 50 PEOPLE.
00:42:03.28\00:42:06.82
MAYBE 100 PEOPLE.
THERE WERE MOTHERS WHO RAN TO
00:42:06.82\00:42:10.99
GET OUT OF THE RAIN, BUT
THAT DOESN'T MEAN THEY LEFT THE
00:42:10.99\00:42:14.10
MEETING. BUT
EVERYBODY SAT AND THEY
00:42:14.10\00:42:17.07
STAYED RIGHT THROUGH THE MEETING
AS THE RAIN CAME POURING DOWN.
00:42:17.07\00:42:20.80
AND I ASKED GOD, I SAID,
"GOD, IN THE NAME OF CHRIST,
00:42:20.80\00:42:24.81
STOP THE RAIN.
SAVE YOUR PEOPLE HERE."
00:42:24.81\00:42:29.34
AND THE RAIN STARTED TO STOP.
AND SOON THE RAIN HAD STOPPED
00:42:29.34\00:42:32.61
ALL TOGETHER. I THEN
WENT INTO AN ALTAR CALL.
00:42:32.61\00:42:35.82
AND YOU CAN SEE
IT ON THE SCREEN.
00:42:35.82\00:42:37.42
AND I GUESS WE HAD AT LEAST
10,000 PEOPLE, MAYBE 15,000
00:42:37.42\00:42:42.76
PEOPLE COME FORWARD TO
ACKNOWLEDGE CHRIST BEFORE MEN.
00:42:42.76\00:42:48.13
TO PUBLICLY CONFESS HIM AND
TURN THEIR BACKS ON THE WORKS OF
00:42:48.13\00:42:50.93
DARKNESS. MY FRIEND, HE'S ALIVE.
00:42:50.93\00:42:54.60
GOD IS ALIVE. WE
ARE IN A REAL CONFLICT
00:42:54.60\00:42:56.74
BETWEEN THE DEVIL AND
CHRIST. WHAT SIDE ARE YOU ON?
00:42:56.74\00:43:01.14
HAVE YOU GIVEN
YOUR LIFE TO CHRIST?
00:43:01.14\00:43:03.88
ARE YOU FOLLOWING CHRIST?
OR ARE YOU TRYING TO LIVE WITH
00:43:03.88\00:43:08.22
THE DEVIL AND
TRYING TO LIVE WITH CHRIST?
00:43:08.22\00:43:10.22
IT'S NOT GOING TO WORK.
WHEN THE NIGHT CAME FOR THE MARK
00:43:10.22\00:43:14.49
OF THE BEAST--YOU SAY,
"YOU PREACH THAT STUFF?"
00:43:14.49\00:43:16.76
WELL, THE BIBLE TELLS YOU
TO. YOU SAY, "BUT--" NO, NO, NO.
00:43:16.76\00:43:21.40
UNLESS YOU CAN SHOW ME WHY
I SHOULDN'T, FROM THE BIBLE,
00:43:21.40\00:43:24.40
I'M GOING TO KEEP
DOING WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS.
00:43:24.40\00:43:26.40
REVELATION 14 SAYS IT IS GIVEN
WITH A LOUD VOICE, BUT WE OUGHT
00:43:26.40\00:43:30.27
TO DO IT IN LOVE. AND
WHEN I WENT OUT TO PREACH
00:43:30.27\00:43:33.27
THAT NIGHT, I STARTED TO
PREACH--AND I WANT TO TELL YOU
00:43:33.27\00:43:37.41
THIS SOFTLY. I
FELT A HAND ON MY LEFT
00:43:37.41\00:43:44.42
SHOULDER. STRONG AS ANYTHING.
00:43:44.42\00:43:49.42
I IMMEDIATELY TURNED
AROUND. I THOUGHT IT'S DAVID OR
00:43:49.42\00:43:52.43
SOMEBODY, OR PASTOR HARKER.
THERE'S NOBODY THERE, FOLKS.
00:43:52.43\00:43:57.87
I JUST SAID, "LORD, BE
MERCIFUL TO US AND PROTECT US."
00:43:57.87\00:44:03.67
WE WERE IN THE
MIDST OF A BATTLE.
00:44:03.67\00:44:05.67
I WANT YOU TO KNOW THIS.
I WANT THIS WORD TO GO OUT
00:44:05.67\00:44:09.01
AROUND THE WORLD. IN HONIARA,
00:44:09.01\00:44:11.95
THE LORD JESUS CHRIST
WAS MAGNIFIED AND HE GAVE US
00:44:11.95\00:44:14.62
THE VICTORY.
NOW, LISTEN IT'S TRUE.
00:44:14.62\00:44:19.95
AND ANOTHER NIGHT,
I CAME OUT TO PREACH.
00:44:19.95\00:44:23.49
THIS WAS THE NIGHT
THE PRIME MINISTER CAME
00:44:23.49\00:44:25.09
AND ALL OF HIS CABINET.
HE'D HEARD ABOUT THE MEETINGS
00:44:25.09\00:44:27.96
AND HE SAID, "I WANT TO COME."
AND HE CAME AND HE THANKED ME
00:44:27.96\00:44:31.20
PERSONALLY ON BEHALF OF
THE GOVERNMENT FOR COMING.
00:44:31.20\00:44:35.07
WHEN I MADE AN APPEAL THAT NIGHT
IN THE ALTAR CALL, HE AND HIS
00:44:35.07\00:44:38.87
MINISTERS
RESPONDED. THAT'S GOOD FOLKS.
00:44:38.87\00:44:41.88
GLORY BE TO GOD. YOU
KNOW, GOD CAN EVEN SAVE
00:44:41.88\00:44:44.75
PRIME MINISTERS AND PRESIDENTS.
GOD WANTS TO SAVE EVERYBODY
00:44:44.75\00:44:50.09
WHO WILL BE SAVED. BUT
AS I ARRIVED AT THE MEETING
00:44:50.09\00:44:55.89
AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW, DID WE
HAVE MUSIC, DID WE HAVE MUSIC.
00:44:55.89\00:45:01.60
THESE FOLKS--THE MUSICAL GROUPS
WE HAD WERE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.
00:45:01.60\00:45:10.47
YOU ASK BOB LUDWIG AND DONN,
BECAUSE THEY RECORDED THEM.
00:45:10.47\00:45:15.54
WHEN WE CAME THAT NIGHT THERE
WAS A TREMENDOUS STORM OVER
00:45:15.54\00:45:19.48
IRON BOTTOM BAY, QUITE A
CANAL WHERE THE AMERICAN'S LOST
00:45:19.48\00:45:23.55
A HEAP OF SHIPS AND
THE JAPANESE LOST MORE.
00:45:23.55\00:45:29.36
THE BATTLE FOR THE SOUTH PACIFIC
REALLY STARTED AT GUADALCANAL,
00:45:29.36\00:45:32.09
THE GREAT BATTLE TO
TURN THE FORCES OF EVIL BACK.
00:45:32.09\00:45:37.20
AND SUSIE HAD A CAMERA THERE AND
WE WERE LOOKING OUT OVER THE BAY
00:45:37.20\00:45:42.07
AND THERE WAS A TREMENDOUS
STORM. IT WAS JUST ROARING.
00:45:42.14\00:45:45.67
I SAID, "GOD, DON'T SEND
THIS STORM, DON'T LET IT COME
00:45:45.67\00:45:49.48
TONIGHT." AND THAT WAS ON MY
LEFT SIDE AND I LOOKED ON MY
RIGHT SIDE AND THERE WAS A
00:45:49.48\00:45:55.15
TREMENDOUS STORM COMING UP. AND
IT WAS TALKING. IT WAS
THUNDERING AND GROWLING.
00:45:55.15\00:46:03.36
AND THE LIGHTENING WAS FLASHING
ON BOTH SIDES. AND WE CRIED OUT
00:46:03.36\00:46:09.13
TO THE LORD IN THE NAME OF
JESUS. I WANT YOU TO KNOW THIS
FOLKS, WE DIDN'T GET A DROP OF
00:46:09.13\00:46:14.94
RAIN, NOT A BIT. THE LORD
HELD IT BACK. I WANT YOU TO HAVE
00:46:14.94\00:46:21.81
FAITH TODAY. I WANT YOU TO KNOW,
HE'S ALIVE. I MADE A CALL FOR
BAPTISM. AND WE HAVE A SPECIAL
00:46:21.81\00:46:29.95
WAY OF DOING IT.
00:46:29.95\00:46:32.02
WE GIVE OUT CARDS AND THEN
WE COLLECT THE CARDS IN THESE
00:46:32.09\00:46:37.29
CONTAINERS. AND WE
BRING DOWN THE CARDS AND
00:46:37.29\00:46:39.69
ABOUT 4,000 SOULS IN THE
FIRST CALL FOR BAPTISM SIGNED
00:46:39.69\00:46:45.53
THEIR NAMES IN A
COVENANT WITH GOD.
00:46:45.53\00:46:48.87
WE HAD A SENSE
THAT GOD WAS THERE.
00:46:48.87\00:46:53.14
THEN THE SABBATH MORNING CAME
WHEN WE WERE GOING TO HAVE THE
00:46:53.14\00:46:56.24
BAPTISM. WE HAD
A GREAT CHOIR FROM
00:46:56.24\00:46:59.81
BETIKAMA COLLEGE.
WE HAD WONDERFUL MUSIC.
00:46:59.81\00:47:06.96
WE HAD--THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO
GOT BAPTIZED DRESSED IN WHITE.
00:47:06.96\00:47:12.83
AND THEN WE TOOK THEM DOWN TO
A RIVER WHICH IS INFESTED WITH
00:47:12.83\00:47:17.33
CROCODILES. LAST YEAR
A WOMAN WAS TAKEN BY A
00:47:17.33\00:47:23.67
CROCODILE NEAR BETIKAMA.
HER HUSBAND WENT TO SAVE HER AND
00:47:23.67\00:47:28.28
THE CROCODILE LET HER GO AND
TURNED ON HIM AND KILLED HIM.
00:47:28.28\00:47:32.68
SO, WE HAD SOME BOYS WHO WERE
SITTING BESIDE THE BAPTISM WITH
00:47:32.68\00:47:37.49
LONG STICKS HITTING THE WATER.
BUT WE HAD TENS OF THOUSANDS OF
00:47:37.49\00:47:42.42
PEOPLE THERE AND WE SAW
THESE PRECIOUS AND BEAUTIFUL AND
00:47:42.42\00:47:47.40
WONDERFUL SOULS. I
WANT YOU TO KNOW, MY FRIEND,
00:47:47.40\00:47:51.73
JESUS IS ALIVE AND WELL.
PASTOR HARKER SAID TO ME--'CAUSE
00:47:51.73\00:47:54.60
HE'S AN OLD MISSIONARY, A GREAT
MISSIONARY, HE SAID, "TODAY WE
00:47:54.60\00:47:59.07
HAVE EXPERIENCED PENTECOST."
I WANT YOU TO KNOW, MY FRIEND,
00:47:59.07\00:48:03.68
GOD IS ALIVE. YOU
KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS?
00:48:03.68\00:48:07.95
WOULD YOU LIKE TO
KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS?
00:48:07.95\00:48:10.42
THE PROBLEM'S WITH
US. WE DON'T HAVE FAITH.
00:48:10.42\00:48:13.36
WE DON'T BELIEVE AS WE USED
TO. I HAVE SOME CONCLUSIONS.
00:48:13.36\00:48:18.36
LISTEN TO THESE
CONCLUSIONS. YOU LISTENING?
00:48:18.36\00:48:21.66
THE GOSPEL IS STILL THE POWER.
IF YOU GO TO A CHURCH WHERE THE
00:48:21.66\00:48:28.14
GOSPEL IS NOT PREACHED,
YOU'D BETTER GO AND FIND
00:48:28.14\00:48:30.41
ANOTHER CHURCH. BUT
THE GOSPEL IS STILL THE
00:48:30.41\00:48:34.94
POWER OF GOD. IT'S
THE GREATEST FORCE IN THE
00:48:34.94\00:48:38.01
UNIVERSE. AND IF
IT'S NOT MAKING A CHANGE
00:48:38.01\00:48:40.02
IN YOUR LIFE, MY FRIEND, IT'S
BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT LETTING THE
00:48:40.02\00:48:43.95
GOSPEL DO WHAT THE
GOSPEL DOES. STILL THE POWER.
00:48:43.95\00:48:48.76
NUMBER TWO, THE WORLD NEEDS MORE
THAN RELIGION WITH ITS RITES AND
00:48:48.76\00:48:54.00
CEREMONIES. ALMOST
ALL MAN-MADE RELIGION IS
00:48:54.00\00:48:58.33
NOT ONLY NASTY, IT IS
BAD. THE WORLD NEEDS MORE
00:48:58.33\00:49:04.34
THAN RELIGION WITH
ITS RITES AND CEREMONIES;
00:49:04.34\00:49:06.14
IT NEEDS THE HOLY SPIRIT.
WE NEED PEOPLE FILLED WITH THE
00:49:06.14\00:49:09.94
HOLY SPIRIT. AND
HERE'S THE THIRD TRUTH.
00:49:09.94\00:49:14.35
AND I SAY THIS TO THE
PEOPLE WHO DON'T BELIEVE.
00:49:14.35\00:49:18.82
GREAT CROWDS WILL STILL COME
TO HEAR THE GOSPEL PREACHED.
00:49:18.82\00:49:23.16
I'VE SEEN IT AROUND THE
WORLD. SOUTH AFRICA, RUSSIA.
00:49:23.16\00:49:27.30
MILLIONS CAME IN
RUSSIA AND UKRAINE.
00:49:27.30\00:49:29.66
I'VE SEEN HUGE CROWDS.
AND POINT NUMBER FOUR, WE NEED
00:49:29.66\00:49:35.47
TO REAPPRAISE WHAT WE
CONSIDER IS IMPORTANT.
00:49:35.47\00:49:41.21
JESUS SAID, "SEEK FIRST
THE KINGDOM OF GOD AND HIS
00:49:41.21\00:49:47.62
RIGHTEOUSNESS." THE
BIBLE TELLS US, "DO NOT SEEK
00:49:47.62\00:49:52.35
THAT WHICH IS IMPORTANT.
SEEK THAT WHICH IS BEYOND
00:49:52.35\00:49:56.49
IMPORTANT. SEEK
THAT WHICH IS VITAL AND
00:49:56.49\00:50:00.43
NECESSARY." THE MOST IMPORTANT.
00:50:00.43\00:50:05.20
I BRING YOU THIS REPORT
TODAY THAT YOU MAY KNOW THAT
00:50:05.20\00:50:13.01
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS ALIVE
AND WELL ON PLANET EARTH.
00:50:13.01\00:50:20.08
AND WE HAVE SEEN THE
GLORY OF THE COMING OF THE LORD.
00:50:20.08\00:50:27.96
I WANT YOU ALL NOW TO
KNEEL. WE'RE GOING TO PRAY.
00:50:27.96\00:50:32.76
NOW, THOSE OF YOU HAVE A LOOK
AT THIS PAN HERE AS YOU GET DOWN
00:50:32.76\00:50:34.93
ON YOUR KNEES. LET'S
HAVE A LOOK AT THIS PAN.
00:50:34.93\00:50:38.67
PEOPLE GO AS FAR
AS THE EYE CAN SEE.
00:50:38.67\00:50:46.54
LET'S GET DOWN ON OUR KNEES.
OUR FATHER, ON OUR KNEES WE
00:50:46.54\00:50:52.21
WORSHIP YOU. WE BLESS YOU.
00:50:52.21\00:50:55.82
WE PRAISE YOU.
00:50:55.82\00:50:58.15
WE THANK YOU THAT THE WORK IS
NOT OF MAN, BUT THE WORK IS OF
00:50:58.22\00:51:02.42
GOD. WE PRAY TODAY THAT YOU WILL
LIFT US OUT OF OUR LITTLE SAFE
ZONES, OUT OF OUR BUBBLES OF
00:51:02.42\00:51:09.13
RELIGIOSITY, AND INTRODUCE US
TO THE POWER OF THE GOSPEL, TO
00:51:09.13\00:51:16.67
CHRIST. HELP US TO BECOME TRUE
DISCIPLES OF CHRIST, PEOPLE WHO
FEED ON THE WORD OF GOD.
00:51:16.67\00:51:23.81
NOT PEOPLE WHO ARE SUPERCILIOUS
AND JUST RELIGIOUS, BUT PEOPLE
WHO KNOW IN THEIR OWN HEARTS
00:51:23.81\00:51:28.88
THAT CHRIST IS ALIVE. THANK YOU
FOR THE GREAT CROWDS. THANK YOU
FOR THE MULTITUDES WHO
00:51:28.88\00:51:36.49
CAME TO CHRIST BY THE TENS OF
THE THOUSANDS. THANK YOU FOR THE
00:51:36.49\00:51:41.13
PRIME MINISTER AND THE CABINET
WHO ALL CAME. THANK YOU FOR THE
NEW BELIEVERS TODAY.
00:51:41.13\00:51:47.40
THANK YOU FOR THE SUPPORTERS
IN THIS CHURCH WHO MADE IT
00:51:47.40\00:51:52.07
POSSIBLE. WE WORSHIP YOU.
WE BLESS YOU. WE PRAISE YOU.
00:51:52.07\00:51:55.68
WE GIVE YOU GLORY. AND WE
THANK YOU WITH ALL OUR HEARTS.
00:51:55.68\00:52:00.22
IN JESUS' NAME. AMEN.

>> I'VE JUST COME BACK
FROM THE SOLOMON ISLANDS.
00:54:33.07\00:54:35.20
AND I'VE SEEN THE
GLORY AND THE POWER OF GOD.
00:54:35.20\00:54:38.41
WE SAW 35,000 PEOPLE COMING TO
THE MEETINGS NIGHT AFTER NIGHT.
00:54:38.41\00:54:42.34
TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE
COMING TO A KNOWLEDGE OF CHRIST
00:54:42.34\00:54:48.22
AND THE TRUTH. WE
NOW WANT TO CONTINUE
00:54:48.22\00:54:51.42
THIS WORK. WE
WANT TO BUILD OUT THERE
00:54:51.42\00:54:54.16
A RADIO STATION. IT
WILL COST AT LEAST $150,000
00:54:54.16\00:54:59.69
U.S./AUSTRALIAN. I
WANT YOU, PLEASE, TO HELP ME
00:54:59.69\00:55:04.67
TO BUILD A RADIO
STATION IN THE SOLOMON ISLANDS
00:55:04.67\00:55:08.60
FOR THE SOUTH PACIFIC.
"ONLY A $150,000," YOU SAY.
00:55:08.60\00:55:14.48
YEAH, BUT IT'S A LOT
IF YOU DON'T HAVE IT.
00:55:14.48\00:55:15.71
AND I DON'T HAVE IT. BUT
IF YOU BELIEVE IN THIS GREAT
00:55:15.71\00:55:19.08
WORK, IF YOU BELIEVE THAT
EVANGELISM IS WHAT THE CHURCH
