From Arcadia, California,
The Carter Report presents,
00:00:07.44\00:00:10.53
"The Living
Word" around the world.
00:00:10.56\00:00:12.44
Hello, friend, I'm John Carter.
00:00:17.13\00:00:19.21
Welcome today to
the Carter report,
00:00:19.24\00:00:21.60
a special program
with Pastor Cesar Cardenas.
00:00:21.63\00:00:26.57
Pastor Cesar has been doing
a lot of work in Latin America,
00:00:26.60\00:00:31.63
where a great
spiritual revolution
00:00:31.66\00:00:34.47
is taking place right now.
00:00:34.50\00:00:37.19
We're going to tell you about
this great spiritual revolution
00:00:37.22\00:00:41.26
in this program today.
00:00:41.29\00:00:43.00
Welcome to The Carter Report.
00:00:43.03\00:00:45.01
I wish you had come with me
00:00:48.45\00:00:51.35
to a land of more
than a billion souls,
00:00:51.38\00:00:56.17
all in need of
hearing the gospel of Christ.
00:00:56.20\00:00:58.82
Did you know this, my friend?
00:00:58.85\00:01:01.67
It is the duty of the Christian
00:01:01.70\00:01:04.45
to take gospel of
Christ to our lost world?
00:01:04.48\00:01:08.91
And the lost world I'm talking
about right now is India.
00:01:08.94\00:01:12.97
Land of millions and
millions of pagan gods,
00:01:13.00\00:01:17.92
but more than a
billion lost souls.
00:01:17.95\00:01:23.55
India cries out for God.
We are now back on India TV.
00:01:23.58\00:01:29.47
We're broadcasting
on prime time in India.
00:01:29.50\00:01:32.55
We need your
prayers, we need your support.
00:01:32.58\00:01:36.04
Is it easy in India?
00:01:36.07\00:01:37.91
No, it's the hardest
place we've ever worked.
00:01:37.94\00:01:41.41
Harder than
Russia? Harder than Russia.
00:01:41.44\00:01:43.86
Harder than
America? Harder than America.
00:01:43.89\00:01:46.54
Harder than Australia?
Harder than Australia.
00:01:46.57\00:01:49.58
Because it is a
land that's given over
00:01:49.61\00:01:51.47
almost totally to demonism.
00:01:51.50\00:01:55.45
Now I can tell you
about those demons,
00:01:55.48\00:01:57.42
I could tell you
about the false gods,
00:01:57.45\00:01:59.33
but what I want to tell you
today is about the true God,
00:01:59.36\00:02:02.03
and the true God who told
us, "Go unto all the world
00:02:02.06\00:02:05.24
and preach the
gospel to every creature."
00:02:05.27\00:02:07.60
We're back in India.
00:02:07.63\00:02:10.12
Yes, we're back in India
00:02:10.15\00:02:11.55
and by the grace of God
we're back in India to stay.
00:02:11.58\00:02:15.04
We want you to come with us,
we want you to pray for India,
00:02:15.07\00:02:18.27
we want you to give
for India and do it today.
00:02:18.30\00:02:22.08

to the lost souls of India.
00:02:36.13\00:02:38.37
Thank you, in Jesus
name and God bless you.
00:02:38.40\00:02:40.79
Welcome, today to
The Carter Report.
00:02:49.07\00:02:51.60
We have a great program
00:02:51.63\00:02:53.33
because we're talking about
a great spiritual revolution
00:02:53.36\00:02:56.47
that is taking
place in Latin America,
00:02:56.50\00:02:59.87
south of the border.
00:02:59.90\00:03:02.12
Pastor Caesar, we're
glad to have you here today.
00:03:02.15\00:03:04.49
Thank you, pastor.
00:03:04.52\00:03:05.86
The world has got a new pope,
00:03:05.89\00:03:07.76
and the people like this
pope, he is a Jesuit pope.
00:03:07.79\00:03:10.38
He knows how to
get on with people
00:03:10.41\00:03:12.64
and some tell me
they got a Latino Pope
00:03:12.67\00:03:16.80
because so many Roman Catholics
00:03:16.83\00:03:20.30
are becoming
Protestants in Latin America.
00:03:20.33\00:03:24.72
Time magazine calls
this the second reformation.
00:03:24.75\00:03:31.08
Now is a spiritual
revolution taking place
00:03:31.11\00:03:34.10
down in Latin America?
00:03:34.13\00:03:35.35
Yes, Pastor, it's
amazing how the people--
00:03:35.38\00:03:38.31
It's like a great
awakening in Latin America.
00:03:38.34\00:03:42.60
And now you've seen this?
00:03:42.63\00:03:43.71
Yes, yes, before
40, 50 years ago,
00:03:43.74\00:03:49.01
the people in Latin America
00:03:49.04\00:03:50.55
used to just
follow the tradition.
00:03:50.58\00:03:52.52
Yes.
00:03:52.55\00:03:53.60
You know, they
just, what my mom did,
00:03:53.63\00:03:55.11
what my grandmother told me,
00:03:55.14\00:03:57.06
but now they are you
know, getting into the Bible.
00:03:57.09\00:04:00.08
They want to know the truth.
00:04:00.11\00:04:02.09
Why do I have to do this,
00:04:02.12\00:04:03.50
why do I have to
follow this in my life?
00:04:03.53\00:04:06.46
And in Latin
America, I have seen this and,
00:04:06.49\00:04:10.43
it's a great, great
awakening on a spiritual truths.
00:04:10.46\00:04:13.60
Tens of millions of
earnest Roman Catholics
00:04:13.63\00:04:18.99
are leaving the Catholic Church
00:04:19.02\00:04:22.12
and are coming into
Protestant Churches.
00:04:22.15\00:04:24.31
Yes.
00:04:24.34\00:04:25.66
Pentecostals,
Baptists, Adventists,
00:04:25.69\00:04:30.51
and we could go and
on and on, and they say
00:04:30.54\00:04:35.66
this has sent
shockwaves through the Vatican.
00:04:35.69\00:04:40.19
And that's why we
have this present pope.
00:04:40.22\00:04:43.60
These nations historically
are Roman Catholic countries,
00:04:43.63\00:04:48.40
not like the
United States of America.
00:04:48.43\00:04:50.43
Historically, this
is a protestant country
00:04:50.46\00:04:54.53
based on the Bible.
00:04:54.56\00:04:56.84
It is no longer so,
00:04:56.87\00:04:59.04
America is undergoing a
different sort of revolution
00:04:59.07\00:05:03.06
but those countries down there,
historically Roman Catholic
00:05:03.09\00:05:07.14
are finding the
Protestant faith.
00:05:07.17\00:05:10.56
For a period,
some of these countries
00:05:10.59\00:05:12.78
as you know and I
know, embraced communism.
00:05:12.81\00:05:15.81
Yes.
00:05:15.84\00:05:16.94
Like Chile and we
could mention others.
00:05:16.97\00:05:19.56
Cuba.
00:05:19.59\00:05:20.65
Cuba, how does this influence
the work of a Christian,
00:05:20.68\00:05:24.66
Protestant,
Evangelist like Pastor Caesar?
00:05:24.69\00:05:29.09
You know, pastor, I
see this as a positive way.
00:05:29.12\00:05:34.14
Oh, I do too.
00:05:34.17\00:05:35.42
You know why, because
for more than 500 years
00:05:35.45\00:05:40.19
people were just following
00:05:40.22\00:05:43.50
the teachings of the
Roman Catholic Church.
00:05:43.53\00:05:47.89
But now that
they've got their own Bible,
00:05:47.92\00:05:51.23
they are studying the Bible
00:05:51.26\00:05:53.21
and after all the
ideas of Communism,
00:05:53.24\00:05:56.82
after all the ideas
that they had before,
00:05:56.85\00:05:59.13
now they want to know by
themselves what is going on.
00:05:59.16\00:06:02.74
They want to
learn what is the Bible
00:06:02.77\00:06:04.89
that's really saying
about different things.
00:06:04.92\00:06:07.51
And you see that we
sold in, how, you know,
00:06:07.54\00:06:11.41
the people it's
getting into Bible studies,
00:06:11.44\00:06:14.42
how they are
going to our meetings.
00:06:14.45\00:06:17.33
They want to know
00:06:17.36\00:06:18.63
what the Bible is talking
about different subjects.
00:06:18.66\00:06:22.23
So I see, there is
a very positive now,
00:06:22.26\00:06:25.44
now probably a hundred years ago
00:06:25.47\00:06:28.38
you couldn't make
it, you couldn't make it,
00:06:28.41\00:06:30.71
you know, In a
public matter, but now, yes.
00:06:30.74\00:06:32.01
And maybe in a few years
time, it's not going to happen.
00:06:32.04\00:06:34.74
Yes, yes, this is the time.
00:06:34.77\00:06:36.69
This is the right time to
do Evangelism in Latin America.
00:06:36.72\00:06:39.03
You see in America or
Australia, Western Europe,
00:06:39.06\00:06:42.05
Evangelism soul
winning, has ground to a stop
00:06:42.08\00:06:45.87
and people say it can't happen
00:06:45.90\00:06:47.63
because people are so--
00:06:47.66\00:06:50.20
they're so indifferent
to the claims of Christ.
00:06:50.23\00:06:53.19
But Latinos still seem
to have a heart for God.
00:06:53.22\00:07:00.58
You've been working in Mexico.
00:07:00.61\00:07:02.79
Yes.
00:07:02.82\00:07:03.87
Do the drug gangs pose
a threat to God's Church?
00:07:03.90\00:07:07.49
We did-- went to
Guadalajara and some,
00:07:07.52\00:07:10.85
looked around there.
00:07:10.88\00:07:12.13
But down there, they
were caught chopping off
00:07:12.16\00:07:15.18
people's head
and rolling the heads
00:07:15.21\00:07:17.36
across the floor of
banquet halls, night clubs.
00:07:17.39\00:07:23.11
Does gang activity
influence your work
00:07:23.14\00:07:26.09
as a Christian
Evangelist, south of the border?
00:07:26.12\00:07:30.22
In two ways, yes.
00:07:30.25\00:07:33.91
The first is, especially
in the north part of Mexico,
00:07:33.94\00:07:39.18
it's a very,
very dangerous part.
00:07:39.21\00:07:41.16
There are some
cities and some little towns
00:07:41.19\00:07:44.71
where you
actually you're not allowed
00:07:44.74\00:07:46.73
to have Evangelistic meetings.
00:07:46.76\00:07:49.59
So it is forbidden?
00:07:49.62\00:07:50.75
Yes, it's forbidden.
00:07:50.78\00:07:52.44
Remember that
the Bible says that
00:07:52.47\00:07:54.37
you will know the
truth and the truth--
00:07:54.40\00:07:56.33
Will make you free.
00:07:56.36\00:07:57.55
That's right. Yes.
00:07:57.58\00:07:58.62
And they don't like
freedom for some of the people,
00:07:58.65\00:08:00.55
you know, and
especially for the people
00:08:00.58\00:08:02.02
that are in control.
00:08:02.05\00:08:03.89
So that's northern Mexico?
00:08:03.92\00:08:05.31
Yeah, that's the
northern part of Mexico.
00:08:05.34\00:08:07.25
And it's pretty dangerous.
00:08:07.28\00:08:08.31
Yes, yes, but it's still,
because of the scary part.
00:08:08.34\00:08:13.34
Because you're
living with the idea
00:08:13.37\00:08:16.35
that probably one
day, any day you can die.
00:08:16.38\00:08:19.54
People is looking
for something more real,
00:08:19.57\00:08:22.68
something that will give them
the assurance that they are,
00:08:22.71\00:08:25.78
you know, even if they
die, they will live again,
00:08:25.81\00:08:28.20
you know, in heaven.
00:08:28.23\00:08:29.57
So they are looking for God.
00:08:29.60\00:08:30.98
They are looking for the Bible.
00:08:31.01\00:08:32.55
They are looking for
something more strong, you know,
00:08:32.58\00:08:36.30
because they have found
out that their lives are,
00:08:36.33\00:08:39.67
you know,
infamous, in the sense of,
00:08:39.70\00:08:43.28
you will die any day,
anytime, and in anyway possible.
00:08:43.31\00:08:47.01
So now in that
north part of Mexico,
00:08:47.04\00:08:50.19
it is dangerous to
preach, but it's also in need.
00:08:50.22\00:08:55.55
People really need
of knowing the gospel.
00:08:55.58\00:08:59.34
Desperate need. Yes.
00:08:59.37\00:09:00.54
Desperate need. Yes.
00:09:00.57\00:09:01.80
Because of the background,
because of the false teachings
00:09:01.83\00:09:05.60
that have permeated into
those parts of the world.
00:09:05.63\00:09:09.84
This false teaching has bred.
00:09:09.87\00:09:11.98
all this crime
and this gang warfare.
00:09:12.01\00:09:14.73
Yes.
00:09:14.76\00:09:15.84
It is the
product of bad teaching.
00:09:15.87\00:09:17.93
In Mexico, there is 31
states in the whole Mexico
00:09:17.96\00:09:22.02
and I've been
preaching the gospel
00:09:22.05\00:09:24.53
in 10 of those 31 states
00:09:24.56\00:09:27.02
and in the south part,
you'll see it's amazing.
00:09:27.05\00:09:31.30
Every time that you
go and preach over there
00:09:31.33\00:09:33.31
you have a crowd of at least
4 or 5,000 people, getting.
00:09:33.34\00:09:37.11
you know...
00:09:37.14\00:09:38.19
Waiting to listen to--
00:09:38.22\00:09:39.30
Praise God, praise God.
00:09:39.33\00:09:41.54
Yeah, tell me of some of
the Evangelistic campaigns
00:09:41.57\00:09:46.27
you have run in these
places south of the border.
00:09:46.30\00:09:50.13
Describe a campaign to me.
00:09:50.16\00:09:53.40
I remember one,
especially in Peru,
00:09:53.43\00:09:56.59
there was a city
called Puno in Peru.
00:09:56.62\00:09:59.73
Tell me, before
you tell me about this.
00:09:59.76\00:10:01.60
What's Peru like,
I've never been to Peru.
00:10:01.63\00:10:03.96
Peru it's a beautiful country.
00:10:03.99\00:10:05.78
It is, it is and the
people is really nice.
00:10:05.81\00:10:07.56
A beautiful people.
00:10:07.59\00:10:08.82
And food, the food is awesome.
00:10:08.85\00:10:10.46
So you like the food?
00:10:10.49\00:10:11.61
Yes.
00:10:11.64\00:10:13.55
So that's, you know,
00:10:13.58\00:10:14.68
now we're getting
down to the real reason.
00:10:14.71\00:10:16.47
Yes.
00:10:16.50\00:10:17.58
But tell me, all
right so you went to Peru.
00:10:17.61\00:10:19.77
Tell me about this campaign,
to preach Christ, the Bible,
00:10:19.80\00:10:23.59
the prophesies, and the
cross of Christ in Peru.
00:10:23.62\00:10:27.25
I remember that I went
to this place called Puno.
00:10:27.28\00:10:30.35
It was 4,000
meters or 12,000 square...
00:10:30.38\00:10:35.69
A 4,000 meters?
00:10:35.72\00:10:36.80
Yes, 4,000 meters
above the sea level.
00:10:36.83\00:10:39.52
That's about almost, I think,
13,000 feet up in the sky.
00:10:39.55\00:10:43.44
Yes, yes, yes,
00:10:43.47\00:10:44.84
it was really, really
hard to breath over there.
00:10:44.87\00:10:47.15
Of course.
00:10:47.18\00:10:48.21
But they had a very
small town and I remember that,
00:10:48.24\00:10:51.24
you know, the pastors
came to me and they said,
00:10:51.27\00:10:53.38
"Pastor, would you like to know
00:10:53.41\00:10:54.84
the place where
you're gonna preach."
00:10:54.87\00:10:57.18
And I said to them
yes, let's take me there.
00:10:57.21\00:11:00.16
I remembered a
huge banner, you know,
00:11:00.19\00:11:02.33
it was a large field
over there and the banner says
00:11:02.36\00:11:06.30
Puno Peru 70,000
people praising God.
00:11:06.33\00:11:12.05
And when I saw the
number, I said 70,000 people?
00:11:12.08\00:11:15.74
That's a lot of people.
00:11:15.77\00:11:16.98
And I said, that's impossible
because their little town
00:11:17.01\00:11:19.96
probably has
10,000 people, you know.
00:11:19.99\00:11:22.91
Yeah.
00:11:22.94\00:11:23.99
So I asked the
pastor and I remember
00:11:24.02\00:11:25.81
that I said to the pastor,
probably you made a mistake
00:11:25.84\00:11:30.37
there is one more zero you know.
00:11:30.40\00:11:33.06
You're saying 7,000.
00:11:33.09\00:11:35.40
And then the
pastor looked me and said,
00:11:35.43\00:11:37.23
"Well, pastor
you have to preach.
00:11:37.26\00:11:39.58
We are in charge of
everything, you just preach."
00:11:39.61\00:11:43.70
And I said well, this
is going to be amazing.
00:11:43.73\00:11:46.97
That night, pastor, 75,000.
00:11:47.00\00:11:50.60
Seventy five thousand
in a town of ten thoudsand.
00:11:50.63\00:11:53.39
Yes.
00:11:53.42\00:11:54.49
But that was amazing,
people walking from 24 hours.
00:11:54.52\00:11:58.40
Amazing. From different places.
00:11:58.43\00:12:00.29
What a hunger.Just to
hear the voice of the Lord.
00:12:00.32\00:12:03.57
No, not a man, but the Bible.
00:12:03.60\00:12:06.33
At that end of that
crusade, we'll remember that we,
00:12:06.36\00:12:09.70
for the glory of God,
baptized 5,236 people.
00:12:09.73\00:12:13.25
Praise God, praise God.
00:12:13.28\00:12:14.88
That's what you
see in Latin America.
00:12:14.91\00:12:16.37
Now Pastor Caesar,
people tell you in America
00:12:16.40\00:12:19.30
and in Australia and
in western countries,
00:12:19.33\00:12:21.91
the days of
Evangelism are finished.
00:12:21.94\00:12:25.17
And they say this
because they have never seen
00:12:25.20\00:12:29.00
or experienced the
mighty power of God.
00:12:29.03\00:12:31.88
You know, pastor,
I was thinking that
00:12:31.91\00:12:34.33
now is the time
for Europe, Australia,
00:12:34.36\00:12:37.24
and America to
actually invest in Evangelism.
00:12:37.27\00:12:41.77
Yes.
00:12:41.80\00:12:42.83
Where you'll see more result.
00:12:42.86\00:12:44.67
We need to go
where the spirit moves.
00:12:44.70\00:12:46.36
Yes, yes.
00:12:46.39\00:12:47.71
You can invest a million dollars
00:12:47.74\00:12:49.64
here in America for
an Evangelistic crusade
00:12:49.67\00:12:51.67
and you will baptize
probably a 100 people.
00:12:51.70\00:12:53.56
Yes, yes.
00:12:53.59\00:12:54.70
But if you invest the
same amount of money.-Yes.-
00:12:54.73\00:12:57.34
In Latin America,
00:12:57.37\00:12:58.48
you will see more than 10,000
people coming for the Lord,
00:12:58.51\00:13:02.57
so you--
00:13:02.60\00:13:03.66
our goal is to
bring people to heaven.
00:13:03.69\00:13:05.88
I agree with you
a million percent.
00:13:05.91\00:13:07.84
I believe that we
ought to put our money
00:13:07.87\00:13:10.85
where we're going
to get the harvest.
00:13:10.88\00:13:12.39
Yes, yes. I believe this.
00:13:12.42\00:13:13.62
I believe we got to put the seed
00:13:13.65\00:13:15.54
where the Lord
has prepared the soil.
00:13:15.57\00:13:17.07
Yes.
00:13:17.10\00:13:18.15
And too often,
we're still putting
00:13:18.18\00:13:19.65
the seed on the
same old hard, rocky soil
00:13:19.68\00:13:24.35
and we wonder why
people get discouraged.
00:13:24.38\00:13:27.07
So I want to say to the people
watching this program today,
00:13:27.10\00:13:30.15
put your money, my
friend, where God has prepared
00:13:30.18\00:13:33.42
the soil for the harvest
and we're going soon to--
00:13:33.45\00:13:37.99
El Salvador. El Salvador.
00:13:38.02\00:13:39.07
Yes, El Salvador
00:13:39.10\00:13:40.32
And this is the place
to put the gospel soil
00:13:40.35\00:13:43.32
because we're gonna
see people come to Christ.
00:13:43.35\00:13:45.57
Now tell me more
about this campaign.
00:13:45.60\00:13:48.11
You know, I'm sort of getting
itchy feet now to go to Peru.
00:13:48.14\00:13:51.37
Tell me about the people
who came to the meetings?
00:13:51.40\00:13:53.71
What did they look
like, what was the response.
00:13:53.74\00:13:56.44
Yeah, pastor, you
will see in those meetings,
00:13:56.47\00:13:59.45
different you know from children
00:13:59.48\00:14:01.27
all the way too old people.
00:14:01.30\00:14:02.37
Yes.
00:14:02.40\00:14:03.52
And you will see a
different background,
00:14:03.55\00:14:05.45
people that are
really poor and in need.
00:14:05.48\00:14:09.15
And you will see also
professionals, doctors,
00:14:09.18\00:14:12.27
people who are really
interested in the Bible,
00:14:12.30\00:14:14.95
you know, they
are looking for God.
00:14:14.98\00:14:16.90
Everywhere, everywhere
in Latin America people
00:14:16.93\00:14:20.01
that are now are interested
in studying the Bible.
00:14:20.04\00:14:23.25
So it's a very large variety,
00:14:23.28\00:14:28.61
and that's the
word that you can use.
00:14:28.64\00:14:30.80
Of different people
00:14:30.83\00:14:32.31
and different
backgrounds and also social--
00:14:32.34\00:14:34.71
Let me tell you, it
just gets into my soul,
00:14:34.74\00:14:37.82
I wish I was 30 years younger.
00:14:37.85\00:14:40.14
Now, we're gonna
take a little pause
00:14:40.17\00:14:42.15
but we're going to be
back in just a few minutes.
00:14:42.18\00:14:45.28
No, just a few seconds.
00:14:45.31\00:14:46.83
But I want to tell
you about this magazine.
00:14:46.86\00:14:48.96
It's called "Ebenezer,"
00:14:48.99\00:14:51.22
you can get it
free by writing to me.
00:14:51.25\00:14:54.21
This magazine,
some of the stories,
00:14:54.24\00:14:56.55
"My warning from the pope,"
00:14:56.58\00:14:59.37
"Why they buried the
bishop on the sidewalk,"
00:14:59.40\00:15:02.07
and stories about
stories about the power of God.
00:15:02.10\00:15:05.35
Stay with us, we'll
be back in just a moment.
00:15:05.38\00:15:08.19
Did you ever have
a sense of destiny?
00:15:11.05\00:15:14.59
Did you ever feel that
God has put His hand upon you,
00:15:14.62\00:15:17.35
for some tremendous task.
00:15:17.38\00:15:20.02
That you really got a purpose,
00:15:20.05\00:15:21.84
that God has called you
for such a time as this?
00:15:21.87\00:15:25.82
I have that sense,
that conviction today
00:15:25.85\00:15:29.23
because God is
opening up doors for us
00:15:29.26\00:15:32.79
in Latin America
and in Latin America,
00:15:32.82\00:15:36.11
my good friend,
there's a revolution going on.
00:15:36.14\00:15:40.12
It's not a
revolution in the streets,
00:15:40.15\00:15:42.67
it is a revolution in
the hearts of men and women.
00:15:42.70\00:15:48.81
That's why the Carter Report
is going to go to El Salvador.
00:15:48.84\00:15:53.95
We are renting an
outdoor stadium with room
00:15:53.98\00:15:56.88
for more then 60,000 souls.
00:15:56.91\00:16:01.25
And we're
planning a baptism in the--
00:16:01.28\00:16:03.31
on the Sabbath
afternoon of more than
00:16:03.34\00:16:05.85
5,000 born-again souls
00:16:05.88\00:16:10.17
in El Salvador,
in Latin America,
00:16:10.20\00:16:14.34
where there's a
revolution going on,
00:16:14.37\00:16:16.17
where the Holy
Spirit is being poured out.
00:16:16.20\00:16:18.89
Don't you want to be a
part of this great purpose,
00:16:18.92\00:16:24.54
this great task,
00:16:24.57\00:16:26.50
this God designed
outreach for Latin America?
00:16:26.53\00:16:32.34
Would you please write to me,
00:16:32.37\00:16:33.48
John Carter, P.O. Box

00:16:33.51\00:16:37.43

the preaching of the
Word of God around the world,
00:16:47.51\00:16:51.82
but right now in Latin America,
thank you and God bless you.
00:16:51.85\00:16:56.76
Welcome back to
The Carter Report,
00:17:11.91\00:17:13.71
have we got a
program for you today.
00:17:13.74\00:17:17.80
We have with us,
Pastor Caesar Cardenas.
00:17:17.83\00:17:20.99
You're telling us about
00:17:21.02\00:17:22.07
the work of the
holy spirit of God
00:17:22.10\00:17:24.47
south of the
border, down Mexico way,
00:17:24.50\00:17:27.85
down into Peru, El
Salvador, Columbia, Brazil,
00:17:27.88\00:17:33.64
just give me a little
sketch, a thumbnail sketch
00:17:33.67\00:17:39.22
of Latin America, Pastor Caesar.
00:17:39.25\00:17:41.57
Well, pastor, Latin
America has 22 countries.
00:17:41.60\00:17:45.68
Twenty two?
00:17:45.71\00:17:46.74
Twenty two, yes.
00:17:46.77\00:17:48.26
There are some
countries that are--
00:17:48.29\00:17:51.98
They speak Portuguese.
00:17:52.01\00:17:53.28
Yes. Brazil.
00:17:53.31\00:17:54.34
Brazil, but still their
church is growing there as well
00:17:54.37\00:17:58.99
and I've been in 16
of those 22 countries,
00:17:59.02\00:18:02.35
you know, working
and doing Evangelism.
00:18:02.38\00:18:03.85
And great countries. Yes.
00:18:03.88\00:18:05.34
Argentina, I mean, that's one
of the great countries. Brazil.
00:18:05.37\00:18:09.45
Chile.
00:18:09.48\00:18:10.51
Chile, you know,
we got to say Chile
00:18:10.54\00:18:12.16
because I got some
Chileans who are working.
00:18:12.19\00:18:14.24
So I got to say,
hey, Chile is just great.
00:18:14.27\00:18:17.96
Columbia. Columbia.
00:18:17.99\00:18:19.46
Now, you come from Columbia?
00:18:19.49\00:18:21.05
Yes, I'm born in Columbia.
00:18:21.08\00:18:22.34
And I've been to Bogota
with you and with my team.
00:18:22.37\00:18:26.56
Now I preached down there.
00:18:26.59\00:18:28.21
What a wonderful
country is Columbia.
00:18:28.24\00:18:30.25
It is.
00:18:30.28\00:18:31.41
And what a great city is Bogota.
00:18:31.44\00:18:33.58
Up more than 8,000
feet up in the sky.
00:18:33.61\00:18:35.76
Yes.
00:18:35.79\00:18:36.95
And a modern,
beautiful, prosperous,
00:18:36.98\00:18:39.53
the Latino people are people
stilled with hearts for God.
00:18:39.56\00:18:47.14
They seem to have a passion
00:18:47.17\00:18:49.63
for the things of
the spirit of God.
00:18:49.66\00:18:52.68
Where else have you worked
down there in Latin America.
00:18:52.71\00:18:56.02
You've worked in Columbia,
you've gone down to Peru
00:18:56.05\00:18:59.62
and been working
recently Mexico, where else?
00:18:59.69\00:19:02.79
Yes, I just came from Bolivia.
00:19:02.82\00:19:05.59
Bolivia?
00:19:05.62\00:19:06.89
Yes, I've never
been there before
00:19:06.92\00:19:09.60
and the experience in
Bolivia was just amazing.
00:19:09.63\00:19:12.94
Tell me about
Bolivia, where's Bolivia?
00:19:12.97\00:19:16.00
Bolivia is one of
the five countries
00:19:16.03\00:19:18.58
in the north
part of South America.
00:19:18.61\00:19:20.97
You will find Columbia.
00:19:21.00\00:19:22.33
Yes. Venezuela and then--
00:19:22.36\00:19:23.65
And so it's next to Columbia.
00:19:23.68\00:19:25.68
Yes, yes, near Columbia.
00:19:25.71\00:19:27.50
How many people are
in Bolivia, do you know?
00:19:27.53\00:19:29.92
In Bolivia, it's
around 16 million people.
00:19:29.95\00:19:32.52
So it's not a
really big country.
00:19:32.55\00:19:33.85
It's not a big country.
Bit it's not that small.
00:19:33.88\00:19:35.09
And what did you
see, Pastor Caesar,
00:19:35.12\00:19:38.22
when you went to Bolivia?
00:19:38.25\00:19:39.56
What catch more my
attention was the young people.
00:19:39.59\00:19:43.45
A lot of young people pastor
00:19:43.48\00:19:45.34
looking for the
truth in the Bible.
00:19:45.37\00:19:47.63
Wonderful,
because it's not like this
00:19:47.66\00:19:50.08
so much in the
western world today.
00:19:50.11\00:19:51.57
Yes.
00:19:51.60\00:19:52.69
Western world is being filled
with the doctrine of atheism,
00:19:52.72\00:19:57.19
the doctrine of Darwin.
00:19:57.22\00:19:58.93
People think that
they're the product
00:19:58.96\00:20:00.09
of time plus matter plus chance.
00:20:00.12\00:20:02.12
And therefore many
people in this part of the world
00:20:02.15\00:20:05.16
live lives of meaninglessness.
00:20:05.19\00:20:08.45
But still in Latin America,
00:20:08.48\00:20:10.58
there are young
people and heaps of them
00:20:10.61\00:20:12.81
who are receptive
to the work of God.
00:20:12.84\00:20:14.89
What did you do in Bolivia?
00:20:14.92\00:20:17.24
I was in a
youth congress getting
00:20:17.27\00:20:19.16
you know with all youth pastor.
00:20:19.19\00:20:20.28
At a youth conference? Yes, yes.
00:20:20.31\00:20:22.01
They still let you
go to youth congress.
00:20:22.04\00:20:23.39
Yes, my face helped me a lot.
00:20:23.42\00:20:25.59
Yes, okay.
00:20:25.62\00:20:27.40
Just the face,
but, pastor, you know,
00:20:27.43\00:20:30.21
what I love most about
these young people is that
00:20:30.24\00:20:33.67
there is too many
churches for just one pastor.
00:20:33.70\00:20:36.55
You can have a
pastor with 40, 42 churches.
00:20:36.58\00:20:40.08
Forty two churches.
00:20:40.11\00:20:41.24
So you'll see a
pastor just once a year.
00:20:41.27\00:20:45.29
Think what our
churches would do in America
00:20:45.32\00:20:47.93
if 42 churches had one pastor.
00:20:47.96\00:20:49.78
Yes.
00:20:49.81\00:20:50.88
Yeah, but down
there, 1 pastor 42 churches.
00:20:50.91\00:20:54.16
Yes, and the young
people, they are, you know,
00:20:54.19\00:20:56.86
getting the Bible to actually
do Evangelism by themselves,
00:20:56.89\00:21:01.82
so we need to equip them
00:21:01.85\00:21:05.30
and give them, you
know, the for young people
00:21:05.33\00:21:08.74
the material from the Bible
00:21:08.77\00:21:10.38
so they can go out
and teach the world.
00:21:10.41\00:21:12.03
How many young people
were in this gathering?
00:21:12.06\00:21:15.30
Twelve hundred
young people in this.
00:21:15.33\00:21:17.60
So a nice group
for getting together.
00:21:17.63\00:21:18.66
Yes, it's a nice group.
00:21:18.69\00:21:19.76
Just the leaders, we're
talking about the leaders,
00:21:19.79\00:21:22.36
the youth leader
from different churches.
00:21:22.39\00:21:24.32
One thousand two
hundred youth leaders.
00:21:24.35\00:21:25.62
Yes.
00:21:25.65\00:21:26.68
And they were getting together,
00:21:26.71\00:21:27.89
do they have a desire to
share Christ with the world?
00:21:27.92\00:21:31.69
Passion, passion pastor.
00:21:31.72\00:21:33.29
They've the passion. Yes.
00:21:33.32\00:21:34.59
Oh, then we might get
this passion back here.
00:21:34.62\00:21:37.59
Well, I think pastor it
um-- The world have noticed,
00:21:37.62\00:21:43.57
that's why the
pope is a Latin pope.
00:21:43.60\00:21:45.71
I know, yeah.
00:21:45.74\00:21:47.16
You know, because
the world has noticed
00:21:47.19\00:21:49.06
that we need to actually see
00:21:49.09\00:21:51.30
what's is going
on in Latin America.
00:21:51.33\00:21:52.96
Because Latin America
has a lot of resources
00:21:52.99\00:21:55.21
that the world is
in need right now.
00:21:55.24\00:21:57.82
So this is the time
that we have to preach.
00:21:57.85\00:22:01.06
This is the time
for Latin American.
00:22:01.09\00:22:04.85
I went to Russia, had
tremendous success unto God
00:22:04.88\00:22:08.68
a bit of 20 years ago.
00:22:08.71\00:22:10.00
I went back 42 times actually.
00:22:10.03\00:22:13.01
But the time now
00:22:13.04\00:22:14.71
I believe has moved
from Russia to Latin America.
00:22:14.74\00:22:18.78
You are planning with us
00:22:18.81\00:22:21.13
a great campaign in El Salvador.
00:22:21.16\00:22:24.90
Yes.
00:22:24.93\00:22:25.99
In the capital
city of San Salvador.
00:22:26.02\00:22:28.97
Yes. That's the place.
00:22:29.00\00:22:30.90
You, with some of my
team members are going off
00:22:30.93\00:22:33.68
on a trip of exploration
in the next few days.
00:22:33.71\00:22:38.04
Tell me what you
think is going to happen
00:22:38.07\00:22:40.92
when we go in the
power of God to El Salvador?
00:22:40.95\00:22:44.81
You know, pastor, I
always wanted to go El Salvador.
00:22:44.84\00:22:49.01
Because I have met
a lot of Salvadorians
00:22:49.04\00:22:51.66
and they are really warm people,
00:22:51.69\00:22:53.85
really-- people
that are really honest.
00:22:53.88\00:22:57.64
Open. Yes, yes.
00:22:57.67\00:22:58.77
And you know when they see
a man of God or when they see
00:22:58.80\00:23:02.82
that they're
learning about the Bible.
00:23:02.85\00:23:05.53
And El Salvador is
the smallest country
00:23:05.56\00:23:08.32
in the whole Central America,
00:23:08.35\00:23:10.28
but it's the
more dense population
00:23:10.31\00:23:12.72
because it has 6.2
million people in population.
00:23:12.75\00:23:17.98
We're planning
with The Carter Report
00:23:18.01\00:23:20.44
and with you, pastor,
also to have a large meeting,
00:23:20.47\00:23:24.23
the largest ever held in
the capital of El Salvador.
00:23:24.26\00:23:29.84
It's gonna be in the
stadium of Cuscatlan.
00:23:29.87\00:23:34.10
We can seat over there
40,000 people, you know. Yes.
00:23:34.13\00:23:37.92
On the benches - and
20,000 people, you know--
00:23:37.95\00:23:40.85
Sixty thousand.
00:23:40.88\00:23:42.05
Sixty thousand
souls. Hallelujah.
00:23:42.08\00:23:43.13
All together.
00:23:43.16\00:23:44.25
Yes, praise the God.
00:23:44.28\00:23:45.50
Yes.
00:23:45.53\00:23:46.57
Do you believe the people
are going to come? Definitely.
00:23:46.60\00:23:49.04
Because if you run a campaign
in Australia or somewhere
00:23:49.07\00:23:51.66
you've got to
spend vast sums of money.
00:23:51.69\00:23:54.27
You got to fight and push to get
00:23:54.30\00:23:56.73
people to believe
that's even possible.
00:23:56.76\00:23:58.13
Yes.
00:23:58.16\00:23:59.23
But do you believe
that people are going
00:23:59.26\00:24:00.31
to come to these meetings.
00:24:00.34\00:24:01.37
Yes, still we need to invest.
00:24:01.40\00:24:03.38
Still we need to, you know,
to do a lot of marketing. Yes.
00:24:03.41\00:24:06.60
We need to led the people
know that we're gonna be there.
00:24:06.63\00:24:08.22
Yes, of course, advertise.
00:24:08.25\00:24:09.30
And that we're gonna-- Yes,
00:24:09.33\00:24:11.02
we need all the
supports from our friends
00:24:11.05\00:24:12.69
and from our
families and from everyone.
00:24:12.72\00:24:14.54
Yes.
00:24:14.57\00:24:15.69
Not just
prayers, we need to use,
00:24:15.72\00:24:18.03
you know, our
resources everywhere.
00:24:18.06\00:24:19.75
So Caesar's telling
you to send some donations
00:24:19.78\00:24:23.20
to The Carter
Report for El Salvador,
00:24:23.23\00:24:25.40
did you get
that, okay keep going.
00:24:25.43\00:24:27.42
Okay, pastor, and
the idea is to baptize
00:24:27.45\00:24:30.27
at least in that
place-- In that campaign.
00:24:30.30\00:24:33.32
Five thousand
people in that country.
00:24:33.35\00:24:35.29
On the Sabbath afternoon.
On a Sabbath afternoon.
00:24:35.32\00:24:36.73
And do you believe
this is going to happen.
00:24:36.76\00:24:38.30
It's gonna happen,
they are working already.
00:24:38.33\00:24:40.46
They have, you know,
a lot of Bible studies,
00:24:40.49\00:24:42.76
the membership in that
country is getting together.
00:24:42.79\00:24:46.91
So we can
actually work together.
00:24:46.94\00:24:48.80
It's a different way of
doing Evangelism.Yes, yes.
00:24:48.83\00:24:51.59
Pastor, because I know
people here in America.
00:24:51.62\00:24:55.28
That they are
passionate about Evangelism
00:24:55.31\00:24:58.73
but they don't have the time.
00:24:58.76\00:24:59.97
So they invest to
do Evangelism out there
00:25:00.00\00:25:04.16
in Latin America and we do it.
00:25:04.19\00:25:06.49
We will do it all
together, we will be there
00:25:06.52\00:25:09.66
under the grace of the Lord.
00:25:09.69\00:25:11.08
-Yes. -And we will do.
00:25:11.11\00:25:12.62
And under his protection.
Under his protection.
00:25:12.65\00:25:14.49
And I believe,
with you, Pastor Caesar,
00:25:14.52\00:25:17.30
that we're going to
see thousands of souls
00:25:17.33\00:25:19.46
come to knowledge of God.
00:25:19.49\00:25:20.80
We want to light a fire. Yes.
00:25:20.83\00:25:22.43
For the glory of
God in Latin America
00:25:22.46\00:25:24.97
and we want to
say to our viewers,
00:25:25.00\00:25:27.02
come with us, be a part of this,
00:25:27.05\00:25:29.24
tremendous
outreach in Latin America.
00:25:29.27\00:25:33.77
Can I ask you this?
00:25:33.80\00:25:35.00
Yes.
00:25:35.03\00:25:37.08
Do you see a
difference between say,
00:25:37.11\00:25:40.16
Australia, as
you're also Australian.
00:25:40.19\00:25:45.05
Do you see a
difference in Australia
00:25:45.08\00:25:47.30
and America to Latin
America, in Evangelism,
00:25:47.33\00:25:52.47
do you feel
there's a different fire,
00:25:52.50\00:25:56.10
there's a
different passion down there?
00:25:56.13\00:25:58.32
A lot of that has
to do with the culture.
00:25:58.35\00:26:03.18
Yes.
00:26:03.21\00:26:04.48
Latin American
culture, it's more open.
00:26:04.51\00:26:06.60
So they're--
00:26:06.63\00:26:07.67
You know more in
knowing into person to person.
00:26:07.70\00:26:09.85
They're more of a
passionate people.
00:26:09.88\00:26:11.75
Yes, yes, you will find
more passionate in another way.
00:26:11.78\00:26:15.32
Because I have seen in Australia
00:26:15.35\00:26:17.27
a lot of passion or
here in America as well,
00:26:17.30\00:26:22.44
It depends on the way
that you see the things.
00:26:22.47\00:26:24.59
Yes.
00:26:24.62\00:26:25.67
But this time is a
very good time to support
00:26:25.70\00:26:29.13
the passion for
Evangelism in Latin America.
00:26:29.16\00:26:32.34
And my prayer is this,
that what we are seeing today
00:26:32.37\00:26:36.57
in Latin America and in
another parts of the world,
00:26:36.60\00:26:39.56
what happened soon here
00:26:39.59\00:26:40.62
in the United
States and in Australia,
00:26:40.65\00:26:43.14
that the fire of
the spirit of God
00:26:43.17\00:26:45.30
will come down upon the church.
00:26:45.33\00:26:47.01
Amen, pastor.
00:26:47.04\00:26:48.19
And we believe
that God has brought us
00:26:48.22\00:26:52.26
into this work for
such a time is this as times
00:26:52.29\00:26:56.06
and we're glad to have
you associated with us.
00:26:56.09\00:26:59.38
Thank you,
pastor. Pastor Cardenas.
00:26:59.41\00:27:00.84
And I want to say
to you, my friend.
00:27:00.87\00:27:03.60
We want you to be
part of this great work.
00:27:03.63\00:27:07.29
Bless you heart,
how could a person
00:27:07.32\00:27:09.38
not want to be part of something
00:27:09.41\00:27:11.81
so magnificent
and so tremendous,
00:27:11.84\00:27:15.14
to see the mighty
outpouring of the Spirit of God.
00:27:15.17\00:27:18.20
Maybe some of you will want
to come with us to El Salvador,
00:27:18.23\00:27:22.46
but you need to write to me.
00:27:22.49\00:27:24.01

Now, look at here at
this magazine "Ebenezer."
00:27:44.69\00:27:50.77
It is a magazine
on the power of God,
00:27:50.80\00:27:54.67
it is a magazine
all about Evangelism,
00:27:54.70\00:27:58.17

00:27:58.20\00:28:00.72
the outpouring
of the Holy Spirit.
00:28:00.75\00:28:03.38
How much does it cost?
00:28:03.41\00:28:04.90
No, it's free.
00:28:04.93\00:28:06.20
But we'd sure be glad if
you send some good offerings
00:28:06.23\00:28:09.65
for the work of
God in Latin America
00:28:09.68\00:28:13.40
and think of El Salvador.
00:28:13.43\00:28:16.76
Pray for El Salvador now
00:28:16.79\00:28:20.75
because the campaign is
going to start very, very soon
00:28:20.78\00:28:23.74
and we want to see thousands
of souls saved for Jesus.
00:28:23.77\00:28:28.76
It's been great having you here.
