The Carter Report Presents,
00:00:09.07\00:00:10.71
The Living Word
around the world.
00:00:10.74\00:00:12.91
Hello, I'm John Carter.
00:00:17.18\00:00:19.21
Welcome today to
the Carter Report,
00:00:19.25\00:00:21.85
We have a great program today
because we have a great guest.
00:00:21.88\00:00:25.02
My guest today is
the Founder of 3ABN,
00:00:25.05\00:00:29.12
my old friend, Danny Shelton
00:00:29.16\00:00:32.49
and we're going
tell you stories today
00:00:32.53\00:00:34.23
which are just
going to amaze you,
00:00:34.26\00:00:36.40
you are going to see
in this program today
00:00:36.43\00:00:39.77
the outstretched hand of God.
00:00:39.80\00:00:42.14
Welcome today to
The Carter Report.
00:00:42.17\00:00:43.87
God has his time and
his place for everything.
00:00:46.88\00:00:52.18
And the time and place now
00:00:52.21\00:00:54.98
is Latin
America, including Cuba.
00:00:55.02\00:00:59.59
Time magazine talks about
00:00:59.62\00:01:01.42
the second protestant
reformation and describes
00:01:01.46\00:01:05.63
how 100s of 1000s,
even millions of Latinos
00:01:05.66\00:01:10.67
are coming to
the Gospel of Christ.
00:01:10.70\00:01:14.50
I'm not an armchair theologian.
00:01:14.54\00:01:17.01
I'm speaking
according to experience,
00:01:17.04\00:01:19.84
I have seen it with my own eyes.
00:01:19.87\00:01:23.38
Recently we went
down to El Salvador,
00:01:23.41\00:01:27.52
there I spoke in the
largest football stadium
00:01:27.55\00:01:30.75
in Central America,
with the biggest crowd
00:01:30.79\00:01:33.86
that that foot ball
stadium had ever ever seen.
00:01:33.89\00:01:37.53
They came not to
see a football match
00:01:37.56\00:01:40.60
but to hear about
the blood of Christ.
00:01:40.63\00:01:44.00
Millions are coming
to a knowledge of God
00:01:44.03\00:01:47.70
in Latin America.
00:01:47.74\00:01:49.74
Doors are opening in Cuba.
00:01:49.77\00:01:52.97
Who knows, we may
be going to Cuba soon.
00:01:53.01\00:01:56.81
As the doors open
by the grace of God,
00:01:56.85\00:02:00.22
we are going to
step through those doors,
00:02:00.25\00:02:03.45
and we want you to step
through those doors with us,
00:02:03.49\00:02:07.66
and be part of our team.
00:02:07.69\00:02:10.23
For such a time as this.
00:02:10.26\00:02:11.79
Please write to me,
friend, don't put it off.

join us and see
the miracles of God.
00:02:32.41\00:02:37.12
Amen.
00:02:37.15\00:02:38.49
Welcome today, friend,
00:02:47.63\00:02:48.96
to a special edition
of The Carter Report,
00:02:49.00\00:02:51.50
here in our studio
at Moorpark, California.
00:02:51.53\00:02:54.37
I'm with my old
friend, the founder of 3ABN,
00:02:54.40\00:02:59.47
a satellite
system that is reaching
00:02:59.51\00:03:01.21
the world for Christ.
00:03:01.24\00:03:03.55
Danny, welcome
today to The Carter Report
00:03:03.58\00:03:06.01
and to our new headquarters
00:03:06.05\00:03:07.92
here in Moorpark in
Southern California.
00:03:07.95\00:03:10.92
Thank you for
inviting me, pastor Carter,
00:03:10.95\00:03:12.75
what a fabulous place, God
has blessed you abundantly.
00:03:12.79\00:03:16.49
And I love your vision
00:03:16.52\00:03:18.36
to take the Gospel
into to all the world,
00:03:18.39\00:03:20.73
and that's why
from the beginning
00:03:20.76\00:03:22.50
I've loved
working with John Carter--
00:03:22.53\00:03:24.97
Yeah, we've always
got on well together
00:03:25.00\00:03:26.63
because it seems to
me, Danny, we have a vision
00:03:26.67\00:03:30.74
for reaching the
world for Christ,
00:03:30.77\00:03:32.71
reaching the lost for Christ.
00:03:32.74\00:03:35.48
I remember going to the Kremlin,
00:03:35.51\00:03:38.35
no, not to the Kremlin,
to Moscow in the year 1991,
00:03:38.38\00:03:43.82
just a few years ago.
00:03:43.85\00:03:46.29
'91 in Moscow, I'm
thinking these thoughts now
00:03:46.32\00:03:51.09
that was in the
Palace of Culture,
00:03:51.13\00:03:53.50
just down the
roads from the Kremlin,
00:03:53.53\00:03:56.97
and while we were there
the Russian church said to us,
00:03:57.00\00:04:00.30
we want you to run a program,
00:04:00.34\00:04:01.87
come back and
run a bigger program,
00:04:01.90\00:04:03.91
even though that
was a big program.
00:04:03.94\00:04:05.27
We want you to
run a bigger program
00:04:05.31\00:04:07.24
at the Kremlin.
00:04:07.28\00:04:09.81
I think it was called
the Palace of Congresses,
00:04:09.84\00:04:14.12
there is this great,
big, marvelous theater
00:04:14.15\00:04:16.75
at the Kremlin,
and we paid the deposit
00:04:16.79\00:04:20.36
but we didn't
have any more money
00:04:20.39\00:04:22.02
to run the
meetings, and you may remember
00:04:22.06\00:04:25.93
at the end of '91 or
the beginning of 1992,
00:04:25.96\00:04:30.30
I came up to Southern Illinois,
came to your television studio,
00:04:30.33\00:04:35.34
and we sat down and
you shared the dream,
00:04:35.37\00:04:39.47
and asked the
people to send some money
00:04:39.51\00:04:41.64
for the preaching of the Gospel,
00:04:41.68\00:04:43.11
do you remember those days?
00:04:43.14\00:04:44.48
Absolutely, and what a
miracle because the very night
00:04:44.51\00:04:47.18
that you came, when
you told me about it,
00:04:47.22\00:04:48.95
before we went on the
air, I got so excited about it
00:04:48.98\00:04:52.65
I said, let's
see if we can just,
00:04:52.69\00:04:54.12
you told me how
much money you needed,
00:04:54.16\00:04:55.89
let's just tell
our viewers about it.
00:04:55.92\00:04:57.79
The phones began to ring
00:04:57.83\00:04:59.53
and before the program was over,
00:04:59.56\00:05:01.26
every bit of the money
that you had asked for came in.
00:05:01.30\00:05:04.63
I'll never forget it because
you opened up the phones,
00:05:04.67\00:05:08.57
and, you know, you don't
have begathons, I know that.
00:05:08.60\00:05:12.17
3ABN believes
that people should give
00:05:12.21\00:05:13.91
because of the love of Christ.
00:05:13.94\00:05:15.71
Not because they're
psychologically conditioned
00:05:15.74\00:05:18.28
or something else.
00:05:18.31\00:05:19.65
But I can remember
that night as we spoke about
00:05:19.68\00:05:21.62
going to the
hall of the congresses
00:05:21.65\00:05:25.85
inside the Kremlin,
the phones all lit up,
00:05:25.89\00:05:29.62
and people started
to send a $1,000, $500
00:05:29.66\00:05:32.73
and in a few moments
people had given $75,000.
00:05:32.76\00:05:37.90
John, you know what's
so excited about this?
00:05:37.93\00:05:40.67
This is what
happened in my vision
00:05:40.70\00:05:42.57
because it happened to me,
Seventh-day Adventist Church,
00:05:42.60\00:05:46.04
we've said for
years we're to take
00:05:46.07\00:05:48.14
the Gospel into all the world.
00:05:48.18\00:05:50.11
But I grow up in
the '50s and the '60s,
00:05:50.15\00:05:52.55
Russia and
eastern block countries,
00:05:52.58\00:05:55.22
communism was our,
is cold war, enemies.
00:05:55.25\00:05:57.95
Yeah, I know couldn't get there.
00:05:57.99\00:05:59.52
There is no way to get
behind the iron curtain,
00:05:59.55\00:06:01.99
you couldn't do it.
00:06:02.02\00:06:03.36
So when we talked
about, and everybody's positive
00:06:03.39\00:06:06.16
about getting the
Gospel to the world,
00:06:06.19\00:06:08.06
the thoughts still come,
00:06:08.10\00:06:09.66
but how are you
going to get this Gospel,
00:06:09.70\00:06:12.17
to the eastern
block countries of world,
00:06:12.20\00:06:13.90
that wall, not
only the physical wall,
00:06:13.94\00:06:16.20
but the wall,
it's there mentally,
00:06:16.24\00:06:18.94
physically, spiritually.
00:06:18.97\00:06:20.31
How are you ever
going to get into that?
00:06:20.34\00:06:22.24
And then suddenly, God worked,
00:06:22.28\00:06:25.38
literally the physical wall,
the walls of communism fell,
00:06:25.41\00:06:28.48
and who is one
of the first people
00:06:28.52\00:06:30.35
to go to take the
advantage that opportunity?
00:06:30.39\00:06:33.72
John Carter and
The Carter Report.
00:06:33.76\00:06:35.42
Danny, it was in
the providence of God.
00:06:35.46\00:06:38.13
Let me say this to
you after so many years.
00:06:38.16\00:06:42.13
God brought us
together on that occasion
00:06:42.16\00:06:44.23
for something great,
00:06:44.27\00:06:46.37
because we didn't
get to the Kremlin
00:06:46.40\00:06:49.07
and we're not
going to tell the people,
00:06:49.10\00:06:50.64
why we didn't
get to the Kremlin.
00:06:50.67\00:06:52.34
The Bible tells us
to forget some things,
00:06:52.37\00:06:55.78
and so we didn't
get to the Kremlin
00:06:55.81\00:06:57.75
but the brethren sent us to
the city of Nizhni Novgorod.
00:06:57.78\00:07:01.98
And whoever heard of that?
00:07:02.02\00:07:03.35
That's where they
sent Sakharov, a dissident,
00:07:03.39\00:07:06.86
they exiled him
there and they said
00:07:06.89\00:07:08.29
we're going to send him there
00:07:08.32\00:07:09.66
and we'll never
hear from him again.
00:07:09.69\00:07:13.03
And so the brethren said to me,
00:07:13.06\00:07:15.46
I think it was
elder Neil Wilson,
00:07:15.50\00:07:19.13
and elder Bob
Spangler, they said,
00:07:19.17\00:07:21.74
we've got a place for you to go,
00:07:21.77\00:07:23.41
it's not going
to be the Kremlin,
00:07:23.44\00:07:24.77
we're going to put
somebody else there.
00:07:24.81\00:07:26.41
I said, well, that's okay,
00:07:26.44\00:07:27.78
just give me back the
deposit that we paid on it.
00:07:27.81\00:07:29.38
So we went to the
city of Nizhny Novgorod,
00:07:31.71\00:07:34.88
which during the days--
00:07:34.92\00:07:36.25
Formally Gorky.
00:07:36.28\00:07:37.62
Gorky, in the
days of the communists
00:07:37.65\00:07:39.05
it was called Gorky.
00:07:39.09\00:07:41.42
And then after
the wall came down
00:07:41.46\00:07:43.63
they went back to the
old name of Nizhni Novgorod.
00:07:43.66\00:07:47.00
Large city, three,
three and half million people.
00:07:47.03\00:07:49.00
A big city, I sort of feel,
00:07:49.03\00:07:52.23
I'm at home when I
go to Nizhni Novgorod.
00:07:52.27\00:07:54.57
And I came to you, I want,
I want everybody to know this.
00:07:54.60\00:07:58.41
The Lord moved upon my heart
00:07:58.44\00:08:00.88
to go to my brother,
Danny Shelton and say
00:08:00.91\00:08:03.95
come with me to Russia
because I need some help
00:08:03.98\00:08:08.85
and Danny said we will come.
00:08:08.88\00:08:11.22
So you helped to
raise the budget,
00:08:11.25\00:08:14.36
and then got on a plane
00:08:14.39\00:08:15.82
and you flew over
to the land of Russia.
00:08:15.86\00:08:18.29
I've been there
now 42 times, Danny.
00:08:18.33\00:08:20.36
Yeah I've only 20
so I'm way behind you.
00:08:20.40\00:08:23.40
You have only been
there 20? But you know what?
00:08:23.43\00:08:25.87
You even had to
help me get the visa,
00:08:25.90\00:08:28.14
I couldn't even get a
visa. I helped to get the visa?
00:08:28.17\00:08:31.07
Well, yeah the
Church give me a visa,
00:08:31.11\00:08:32.81
they didn't
want, they said 3ABN,
00:08:32.84\00:08:35.31
we don't know them that well,
00:08:35.34\00:08:36.68
they're this
ministry that's not part of us
00:08:36.71\00:08:38.71
so we're not going to,
you know, give you the visa.
00:08:38.75\00:08:42.48
But you had friends who did
so praise the Lord for that.
00:08:42.52\00:08:45.85
But, John, all said,
00:08:45.89\00:08:47.86
this is not a
negative, this is positive.
00:08:47.89\00:08:49.79
You see, God is in control,
00:08:49.82\00:08:51.93
man doesn't
have the final words.
00:08:51.96\00:08:53.66
Going to Nizhni
Novgorod was the greatest thing,
00:08:53.70\00:08:56.03
it was totally God led,
00:08:56.06\00:08:58.07
was the greatest
thing could never be happen.
00:08:58.10\00:09:00.17
The results, it's
still there 23 years later.
00:09:00.20\00:09:02.97
It is, glory be to God.
And looks what happening there.
00:09:03.00\00:09:05.01
Tell me, Danny, your
overwhelming impressions
00:09:05.04\00:09:10.28
of what
happened in the campaign,
00:09:10.31\00:09:12.31
'92 in the Palace of Sport.
00:09:12.35\00:09:14.88
1992 changed my
entire life. It did?
00:09:14.92\00:09:17.25
I remember getting ready
to go to the Palace of Sport,
00:09:17.29\00:09:20.99
an auditorium that holds
6000-7000 people at most.
00:09:21.02\00:09:24.53
Yeah. I remember going.
00:09:24.56\00:09:25.89
Plus people standing.
00:09:25.93\00:09:27.26
Well, I remember
coming a couple hours early,
00:09:27.30\00:09:29.66
and there was a
2000-3000 people outside
00:09:29.70\00:09:32.27
and I thought,
wow this is great,
00:09:32.30\00:09:33.80
hardly any cars, but
there's 2000-3000 people.
00:09:33.84\00:09:36.64
What I did not know,
when I tried to get in,
00:09:36.67\00:09:39.87
the stadium was already packed.
00:09:39.91\00:09:42.64
And these were the people
overflow wanting to get in.
00:09:42.68\00:09:45.95
When they
realized I was an American,
00:09:45.98\00:09:48.08
I was with Bob Ellis, an
American newspaper writer.
00:09:48.12\00:09:50.45
I remember Bob.
00:09:50.49\00:09:51.82
They attached themselves
to us, our arms and legs,
00:09:51.85\00:09:54.62
and said if they
get in and we get in.
00:09:54.66\00:09:57.03
That's how bad
people wanted to hear
00:09:57.06\00:09:59.96
about the
Gospel of Jesus Christ.
00:10:00.00\00:10:01.73
73 years it had been
forbidden, you couldn't do it.
00:10:01.76\00:10:04.87
So, elder Carter,
what you did in that city,
00:10:04.90\00:10:07.80
a city that westerners
hadn't been in for 73 years.
00:10:07.84\00:10:10.54
It is a closed city,
closed since the days of Stalin.
00:10:10.57\00:10:14.74
Absolutely, and the submarines
and all of those bases there.
00:10:14.78\00:10:18.81
So here we go, I go
into this, finally get in.
00:10:18.85\00:10:22.35
You hold one
meeting, packed, 7000 packed,
00:10:22.38\00:10:25.59
it probably should hold six.
00:10:25.62\00:10:27.22
Let them all out
6000-7000 more came in.
00:10:27.26\00:10:30.16
People were fighting
to get in. Yes, I know.
00:10:30.19\00:10:32.59
Let those out that first
night, 7000 more comes in.
00:10:32.63\00:10:37.17
You're doing a third
meeting you have to be worn out
00:10:37.20\00:10:39.83
but I'll never forget this,
00:10:39.87\00:10:41.47
first night I was walking around
00:10:41.50\00:10:43.04
there was all
glass on the outside,
00:10:43.07\00:10:44.91
people were
yelling, let us in, after,
00:10:44.94\00:10:47.58
you're doing the third meeting,
00:10:47.61\00:10:48.98
I should have been listening
to you but I have to confess.
00:10:49.01\00:10:51.41
I was out, so odd, a man
was banging on the glass.
00:10:51.45\00:10:55.58
Breaking the doors down.
00:10:55.62\00:10:57.25
Absolutely, banging on
the glass he was yelling in,
00:10:57.29\00:10:59.89
and so, older man.
00:10:59.92\00:11:01.26
So I said to, to my
translator, what he is saying?
00:11:01.29\00:11:05.59
She went over
put her to the glass,
00:11:05.63\00:11:08.46
she said he is
saying we've waited 73 years
00:11:08.50\00:11:11.90
to hear about Jesus.
00:11:11.93\00:11:13.27
Let me in. Isn't
that long enough?
00:11:13.30\00:11:14.67
Let us in tonight, and
then as you know later,
00:11:14.70\00:11:17.67
they busted the doors
down, and were able to come in.
00:11:17.71\00:11:20.48
We have pictures
of people lined up
00:11:20.51\00:11:23.11
for at least two blocks,
00:11:23.14\00:11:24.78
dropping into the
basement cellar to get in
00:11:24.81\00:11:27.82
when all the
other doors were closed.
00:11:27.85\00:11:29.35
John, it is life changing
to see what God you use to do,
00:11:29.38\00:11:33.66
to baptize 2,532
souls for the Kingdom.
00:11:33.69\00:11:36.73
Danny, it was the
power of God. Absolutely.
00:11:36.76\00:11:39.53
We're living in the
days of power of God.
00:11:39.56\00:11:41.86
I want to say to the people
watching this program on 3ABN,
00:11:41.90\00:11:44.93
where ever your
watching this program,
00:11:44.97\00:11:47.27
this happen because
God used Danny Shelton
00:11:47.30\00:11:50.04
to help us to raise the budget,
00:11:50.07\00:11:52.74
we wouldn't have
got the money otherwise.
00:11:52.77\00:11:54.81
And Danny came with his team,
and we saw the glory of God,
00:11:54.84\00:11:58.25
and when you had an
altar call, this is true,
00:11:58.28\00:12:01.48
if you had an altar
call, you had to be careful
00:12:01.52\00:12:04.09
if you'd be on the front
00:12:04.12\00:12:05.45
so that you didn't get run over.
00:12:05.49\00:12:06.82
That's true.
00:12:06.86\00:12:08.19
Because they wouldn't
just walk down the front,
00:12:08.22\00:12:10.19
they would run down the front.
00:12:10.23\00:12:11.69
Danny, let me
tell you something.
00:12:11.73\00:12:14.76
Back in those days, I
meet the people in America
00:12:14.80\00:12:18.03
and in
Australia, God bless them,
00:12:18.07\00:12:20.54
and they said to
me, don't you know
00:12:20.57\00:12:23.30
the days of public
evangelism are over,
00:12:23.34\00:12:26.88
we can't do that anymore.
00:12:26.91\00:12:28.94
And they said, surely you
don't believe in sawdust trail.
00:12:28.98\00:12:33.18
You know, the sawdust trail,
00:12:33.21\00:12:34.55
how they used to
have the tent meetings.
00:12:34.58\00:12:36.05
They'd have altar calls.
00:12:36.08\00:12:37.79
I said to them I don't know
much about the sawdust trail,
00:12:37.82\00:12:40.56
but I do know
about the power of God.
00:12:40.59\00:12:43.32
And when we gave altar calls
00:12:43.36\00:12:45.76
in Nizhni Novgorod at 6 o'clock.
00:12:45.79\00:12:48.56
When the meeting started,
we would have hard, bitter,
00:12:48.60\00:12:52.90
suspicious atheists
with their heads down.
00:12:52.93\00:12:57.11
Right.
00:12:57.14\00:12:58.47
By 7 o'clock we
would have everybody
00:12:58.51\00:13:01.14
in the place down the
front, with his hands raised.
00:13:01.18\00:13:04.25
Absolutely.
Praying to the Jesus.
00:13:04.28\00:13:06.78
There is a reason for that.
00:13:06.82\00:13:08.15
John, you're a great
speaker, you're a great orator.
00:13:08.18\00:13:10.29
I'll give you that.
00:13:10.32\00:13:11.65
But what you have,
that I have rarely seen,
00:13:11.69\00:13:14.12
if ever and I give
God the credit for this,
00:13:14.16\00:13:16.86
and the glory,
not uplifting you.
00:13:16.89\00:13:18.69
You have an
anointing on you for evangelism
00:13:18.73\00:13:21.63
like I've never seen in my life,
00:13:21.66\00:13:23.67
and that follows you,
where you go, the crowds come.
00:13:23.70\00:13:27.30
No, they don't
come to see John Carter,
00:13:27.34\00:13:29.24
they come because John
Carter is rightly representing
00:13:29.27\00:13:33.04
Jesus Christ in him crucified.
00:13:33.07\00:13:35.24
They see that again.
00:13:35.28\00:13:36.68
Jesus says, I, If I be lifted up
00:13:36.71\00:13:38.71
will draw all men unto Me.
00:13:38.75\00:13:40.88
Thank you for what you
do for the cause of God.
00:13:40.92\00:13:42.25
No, thank you for
your support, Danny,
00:13:42.28\00:13:44.45
thank you for the partnership.
00:13:44.49\00:13:46.25

He's my closest friend
00:16:02.19\00:16:03.99
When no seemed to care.
00:16:04.03\00:16:07.20
Welcome back, friend,
I'm talking to my friend
00:16:08.90\00:16:10.77
Danny Shelton from 3ABN.
00:16:10.80\00:16:12.87
Welcome back, Danny.
00:16:12.90\00:16:14.24
Thank you, it's to good be here.
00:16:14.27\00:16:15.70
What a beautiful
facility you have in Moorpark,
00:16:15.74\00:16:18.44
California, wonderful facility.
00:16:18.47\00:16:20.14
Glory be to God. Great
crew here, all of them.
00:16:20.18\00:16:21.51
No, no, great crew great people,
00:16:21.54\00:16:23.38
great director,
just a great team.
00:16:23.41\00:16:24.81
Your son David, great director,
great guy, and great friend.
00:16:24.85\00:16:27.22
David's doing great, he's
got to put up with his father.
00:16:27.25\00:16:29.38
But, you know,
it comes with the--
00:16:29.42\00:16:30.75
That can be tough at times,
but he's doing a good job,
00:16:30.79\00:16:32.82
I know it.
00:16:32.85\00:16:34.22
Danny, in the last segment
00:16:34.26\00:16:35.79
I spoke about
the outreach of 3ABN,
00:16:35.82\00:16:38.26
I spoke about the satellite
outreach with television.
00:16:38.29\00:16:41.86
I understand
you're doing radio too.
00:16:41.90\00:16:43.77
Well, we are actually,
our radio network is grown to
00:16:43.80\00:16:46.37
I think something
like 300 radio stations
00:16:46.40\00:16:49.30
around the world.
00:16:49.34\00:16:50.67
As you know we have
radio stations and affiliates
00:16:50.71\00:16:54.84
or own stations in
countries around the world,
00:16:54.88\00:16:57.15
like the Philippines, Australia,
00:16:57.18\00:16:59.38
from, of course,
you're great country,
00:16:59.41\00:17:01.75
and New Guinea, places around,
00:17:01.78\00:17:04.52
television
stations around the world.
00:17:04.55\00:17:06.45
But God has blessed,
00:17:06.49\00:17:07.82
the technology
has changed so much,
00:17:07.86\00:17:09.72
pastor Carter, since we started.
00:17:09.76\00:17:11.99
Going by faith,
shooting that signal
00:17:12.03\00:17:13.53
up to the satellite,
00:17:13.56\00:17:14.90
now 3ABN is on 9 satellites
that encompass planet Earth.
00:17:14.93\00:17:18.83
Anywhere on the planet Earth,
00:17:18.87\00:17:20.20
if you want to
watch to 3ABN, you can.
00:17:20.24\00:17:23.30
You can do it
through the internet,
00:17:23.34\00:17:24.67
you can do it
through cable stations,
00:17:24.71\00:17:26.41
you can do it
through on air stations
00:17:26.44\00:17:28.58
where you just have
to have rabbit ears.
00:17:28.61\00:17:30.41
You can do it
through your telephones now,
00:17:30.45\00:17:32.48
your iPads.
00:17:32.51\00:17:33.85
As I was saying, we
have six networks now,
00:17:33.88\00:17:35.85
we have our dare to dream,
which is a minority network,
00:17:35.88\00:17:39.29
director Evan
Lewis doing a great job.
00:17:39.32\00:17:41.69
We have a proclaim network,
that's just all preaching.
00:17:41.72\00:17:44.33
We have a children's
network, Miss. Brenda Walsh.
00:17:44.36\00:17:47.66
We have our
Latino, brother Johnny,
00:17:47.70\00:17:50.40
Idalia Dinzey and it's goes on,
00:17:50.43\00:17:52.50
we have international.
00:17:52.53\00:17:54.07
God has blessed all
of this, it's amazing.
00:17:54.10\00:17:56.30
Anywhere in the world
00:17:56.34\00:17:57.67
if you want to
watch 3ABN, you can.
00:17:57.71\00:17:59.04
Jesus said, "Go ye
into all the world."
00:17:59.07\00:18:01.28
When I was in Russia, in '92,
00:18:01.31\00:18:03.14
I walked outside
the Rossiya Hotel,
00:18:03.18\00:18:05.41
I looked down, and I said Lord,
Psalms He brought it to mind,
00:18:05.45\00:18:10.29
"Ask of Me and I
will give you the heathen
00:18:10.32\00:18:11.75
for thine inheritance
00:18:11.79\00:18:13.12
and the undermost
parts of the Earth
00:18:13.15\00:18:14.82
for thy possessions."
00:18:14.86\00:18:16.19
I walked outside, I said
Lord, I am on terraferma,
00:18:16.22\00:18:18.89
I'm going to join elder Carter,
00:18:18.93\00:18:20.43
whatever he want to
do here, he's got me.
00:18:20.46\00:18:23.26
Now I'm going to say something.
00:18:23.30\00:18:25.27
I went to London some time ago.
00:18:25.30\00:18:27.90
Beverly wanted to go
down to Kensington Palace
00:18:27.94\00:18:30.81
where Princess Diana had lived.
00:18:30.84\00:18:34.44
They were having a
big memorial there.
00:18:34.48\00:18:36.21
So I said to Beverly, okay.
00:18:36.24\00:18:37.91
Because Beverly
likes Diana you see.
00:18:37.95\00:18:40.25
So we down to
the Kensington Palace
00:18:40.28\00:18:43.08
and she was there
with some of her friends,
00:18:43.12\00:18:44.79
she said we're
going to go in the palace,
00:18:44.82\00:18:46.45
would you like to come?
00:18:46.49\00:18:47.82
I said, no, no, no,
I'm sick of palaces.
00:18:47.86\00:18:50.23
Just come from
Russia for crying out loud.
00:18:50.26\00:18:52.83
I've been in
palaces, the Czars palaces,
00:18:52.86\00:18:54.80
I don't need to
go palaces in London.
00:18:54.83\00:18:57.00
So I said, going around the back
00:18:57.03\00:18:58.83
and I'm going find a tree,
00:18:58.87\00:19:00.20
and I'm going to
sit under the tree,
00:19:00.24\00:19:01.57
and hopefully
there's a seat there.
00:19:01.60\00:19:03.37
And just, I don't
want to talk to anybody.
00:19:03.41\00:19:05.34
I'm peopled out,
been running a campaign.
00:19:05.37\00:19:08.44
She understands, I
don't want to talk to anybody.
00:19:08.48\00:19:11.25
I'm sitting
around the back quietly.
00:19:11.28\00:19:14.42
And I heard somebody
call my name, pastor Carter.
00:19:14.45\00:19:18.52
I thought for heavens
sake, is that an angel?
00:19:18.55\00:19:20.89
Looked up, there
was a man and his wife.
00:19:20.92\00:19:24.36
This is the part
you're not going to believe.
00:19:24.39\00:19:25.79
I've told people this
and they say we don't believe
00:19:25.83\00:19:27.86
you're telling the truth here.
00:19:27.90\00:19:29.26
This is the whole truth.
00:19:29.30\00:19:30.70
So they said,
00:19:30.73\00:19:32.77
we've been praying
that you'd come to England.
00:19:32.80\00:19:35.77
I said what?
00:19:35.80\00:19:37.37
They said we've
moved here to England,
00:19:37.41\00:19:41.34
we've come from Europe,
00:19:41.38\00:19:42.71
and the only the
television set broke down,
00:19:42.74\00:19:44.95
there was only one station
we could get, that was 3ABN.
00:19:44.98\00:19:47.65
All right. Praise the Lord.
00:19:47.68\00:19:49.02
Danny, this is
true, this is true.
00:19:49.05\00:19:50.92
And they said we
listen to you program
00:19:50.95\00:19:53.09
and other programs and
we've become born again
00:19:53.12\00:19:56.22
Christians washed
by the blood of Jesus.
00:19:56.26\00:19:58.49
Praise the Lord.
00:19:58.53\00:19:59.86
And we're Sabbath
keeping Christians.
00:19:59.89\00:20:01.36
Two hander. Yeah, two hander.
00:20:01.40\00:20:03.16
Hallelujah.
00:20:03.20\00:20:06.00
I said, well, why
did you come here?
00:20:06.03\00:20:07.44
They said, we've been praying
that you'd come to London
00:20:07.47\00:20:11.07
and when we were
praying a few days ago,
00:20:11.11\00:20:13.14
we had a strong impression
00:20:13.17\00:20:14.74
that you would
come to London today.
00:20:14.78\00:20:16.75
Oh. Really?
00:20:16.78\00:20:18.11
What chance is there
that one in a thousand.
00:20:18.15\00:20:21.62
Billion or something.
00:20:21.65\00:20:22.98
And I said, but
why did you come here?
00:20:23.02\00:20:24.35
They said, we had an
impression after praying
00:20:24.39\00:20:27.46
that you would come
to Kensington palace
00:20:27.49\00:20:30.09
at 12 o' clock.
00:20:30.13\00:20:31.46
And it's now 12 o' clock.
00:20:31.49\00:20:32.83
Is that coincidence
or divine providence?
00:20:32.86\00:20:35.50
This has got to
be a miracle of God.
00:20:35.53\00:20:37.07
Absolutely.
00:20:37.10\00:20:38.43
And these people today
are in the church in England.
00:20:38.47\00:20:42.30
Praise the
Lord. Because of 3ABN.
00:20:42.34\00:20:45.91
Glory be to God. Amen.
00:20:45.94\00:20:47.28
Danny, tell us how you
bought the building for 3ABN
00:20:47.31\00:20:50.91
from the old atheists in
Nizhni Novgorod, in 1992.
00:20:50.95\00:20:55.52
Well, it wasn't easy,
00:20:55.55\00:20:56.89
I'll tell you
that to begin with.
00:20:56.92\00:20:58.25
But it took a
while and Julia Outkina,
00:20:58.29\00:21:01.32
of course, you baptized Julia.
00:21:01.36\00:21:03.16
Who was the sister
of the governor there.
00:21:03.19\00:21:04.69
Yeah. And Boris Nemtsov.
00:21:04.73\00:21:07.56
And as we began to
work with church leaders,
00:21:07.60\00:21:09.86
they found some property.
00:21:09.90\00:21:11.53
It was eight acres,
and a shell of a building.
00:21:11.57\00:21:14.30
They had started probably
20 years building before.
00:21:14.34\00:21:17.21
Yeah, yeah. Huge facility.
00:21:17.24\00:21:19.24
Uh, today, after
our building on it,
00:21:19.27\00:21:21.81
adding on, there's over a
quarter million square feet.
00:21:21.84\00:21:24.01
We quit trying to
measure 'cause there too--
00:21:24.05\00:21:25.38
Massive, massive.
00:21:25.41\00:21:26.75
Too big, six
storeys high in some areas.
00:21:26.78\00:21:28.82
But it was not an easy,
00:21:28.85\00:21:30.79
not an easy
thing, but you know what?
00:21:30.82\00:21:32.42
We saw God's hand.
00:21:32.45\00:21:33.79
Lord, if You want us here--
00:21:33.82\00:21:35.16
Because here's
the problem, John.
00:21:35.19\00:21:36.96
The problem is the
conference leaders came to us.
00:21:36.99\00:21:39.33
You remember? Yeah.
00:21:39.36\00:21:40.70
We have a great problem.
00:21:40.73\00:21:42.26
You baptized 2532 people
in the Adventist church--
00:21:42.30\00:21:45.60
And another 500 two weeks later.
00:21:45.63\00:21:48.10
6000 had accepted Jesus
00:21:48.14\00:21:50.97
who now were still
taking Bible studies.
00:21:51.01\00:21:53.54
So many of those
we're gonna join the church.
00:21:53.58\00:21:55.68
But 2532 under
the waters of baptism
00:21:55.71\00:21:59.98
through your ministry.
00:22:00.02\00:22:01.35
But our church
for this whole area
00:22:01.38\00:22:03.59
only holds 250 people.
00:22:03.62\00:22:05.05
Yeah, tiny little building.
00:22:05.09\00:22:06.42
What are we gonna do
with all these people?
00:22:06.45\00:22:08.42
We didn't want to do
00:22:08.46\00:22:09.79
what we've seen some
of the great evangelicals
00:22:09.82\00:22:11.39
going to Moscow,
filling up auditoriums,
00:22:11.43\00:22:14.36
baptizing 30,000 people,
leaving six months later.
00:22:14.40\00:22:18.07
There's still no
church, no place for them to go.
00:22:18.10\00:22:20.24
So with your encouragement.
00:22:20.27\00:22:21.60
You said, let's work together.
00:22:21.64\00:22:23.10
We ended up working
with the church leaders there
00:22:23.14\00:22:25.87
and a basel store
yard, at the time,
00:22:25.91\00:22:27.61
it was conference
president Alexander.
00:22:27.64\00:22:29.44
Alexander Antony
00:22:29.48\00:22:30.81
And we we're able to purchase
the first time in 73 years,
00:22:30.85\00:22:34.28
foreigners had been
able to purchase property
00:22:34.32\00:22:37.29
was right about
the time you came.
00:22:37.32\00:22:39.25
Under the
leadership of Boris Nemtsov.
00:22:39.29\00:22:41.62
And so 13 foreign businesses,
00:22:41.66\00:22:44.56
I don't know if
you are aware of this,
00:22:44.59\00:22:46.16
started at that same time.
00:22:46.19\00:22:47.53
Only one of them
still exists today.
00:22:47.56\00:22:49.93
The others had left
because it was too hard,
00:22:49.96\00:22:52.17
but God bless, this
facility now is as you said,
00:22:52.20\00:22:56.64
the greatest protestant
facility, the largest.
00:22:56.67\00:22:58.74
Yes it is. In
the Ex-Soviet Union.
00:22:58.77\00:23:01.11
Thousands and thousands
of people come to the Lord.
00:23:01.14\00:23:04.18
Have come to the Lord
because that facility is there,
00:23:04.21\00:23:07.85
the training is there,
we work with the conference.
00:23:07.88\00:23:10.09
Actually, they use
part of the building,
00:23:10.12\00:23:12.35
we use part of the building.
00:23:12.39\00:23:13.96
Thank you for your
vision, for what you've done.
00:23:13.99\00:23:15.72
And, Danny, I want
the people to hear this.
00:23:15.76\00:23:17.89
It's the largest
protestant building
00:23:17.93\00:23:20.90
in the former Soviet Union.
00:23:20.93\00:23:23.67
A part of the church.
00:23:23.70\00:23:26.33
And God used you
to make it happen.
00:23:26.37\00:23:28.54
No, no, no, God used
you to make it happen.
00:23:28.57\00:23:30.41
And if you go there today,
00:23:30.44\00:23:32.17
there's a
magnificent church building,
00:23:32.21\00:23:34.34
and people are
worshipping in that church.
00:23:34.38\00:23:36.34
And then you've got
00:23:36.38\00:23:37.71
the 3ABN television
radio production center.
00:23:37.75\00:23:40.65
Danny, I went there sometime ago
00:23:40.68\00:23:42.85
and saw my
daughter in the faith,
00:23:42.88\00:23:45.09
Doctor Julia
Outkina whom I love.
00:23:45.12\00:23:47.16
Yes, incredible. One
of the saints of God.
00:23:47.19\00:23:49.36
With a Ph.D from
Leningrad University.
00:23:49.39\00:23:53.40
And when I looked at some
of the television programs,
00:23:53.43\00:23:56.20
those
television programs at 3ABN
00:23:56.23\00:23:59.83
are producing over there
in Russia are world class.
00:23:59.87\00:24:03.10
Amazing.
00:24:03.14\00:24:04.47
And now if u turn on
CNN, or the ABC, or PBS,
00:24:04.51\00:24:08.78
you're not gonna see programs
better than the programs
00:24:08.81\00:24:11.11
that are produced
by 3ABN in Russia.
00:24:11.15\00:24:14.22
I want to say to the
people who are watching today,
00:24:14.25\00:24:16.32
you need to support 3ABN.
00:24:16.35\00:24:19.45
Put the seed into good soil,
00:24:19.49\00:24:22.06
don't put it in
the hard rocking soil.
00:24:22.09\00:24:24.66
Don't put it where
it's going to be wasted,
00:24:24.69\00:24:26.73
but put the seed into good
soil for the saving of souls.
00:24:26.76\00:24:31.67
Tell me, what are your
dreams and visions today, Danny?
00:24:31.70\00:24:35.47
Well, the dreams
and visions are this,
00:24:35.50\00:24:37.01
though the signal is
up and people can reach it
00:24:37.04\00:24:39.27
around the world, is
to give a clear message.
00:24:39.31\00:24:42.41
Because without the message,
the reason 3ABN is still going
00:24:42.44\00:24:46.45
and still growing after 30 years
00:24:46.48\00:24:48.65
is because we made a commitment
as a ministry to continue
00:24:48.68\00:24:52.99
to give an undiluted
three angels messages.
00:24:53.02\00:24:54.72
You preached the truth.
00:24:54.76\00:24:56.09
One that would
counteract or counterfeit.
00:24:56.12\00:24:57.69
Preaching truth
which in today's time,
00:24:57.73\00:25:00.63
there is less and
less of that being taught.
00:25:00.66\00:25:03.83
So I believe as long as we
continue to give the truth,
00:25:03.87\00:25:07.17
God will continue to bless.
00:25:07.20\00:25:09.30
And I want to
thank all the viewers
00:25:09.34\00:25:10.77
who financially support
3ABN and The Carter Report.
00:25:10.81\00:25:14.88
You give to The Carter Report,
00:25:14.91\00:25:16.24
it's like giving to
3ABN and vice-versa.
00:25:16.28\00:25:18.48
Because we worked
together for so long.
00:25:18.51\00:25:20.72
And I don't say
that about every ministry
00:25:20.75\00:25:22.35
but I feel it a
privilege to work with you
00:25:22.38\00:25:25.25
and The Carter
Report group here.
00:25:25.29\00:25:27.06
And we reciprocate.
You've written a new book.
00:25:27.09\00:25:30.39
Right. What's the name of it?
00:25:30.43\00:25:31.76
Well, it's called,
The blessing is on the go.
00:25:31.79\00:25:33.63
The blessing is on the go.
00:25:33.66\00:25:35.00
I'll make this quick because
anytime the Lord says go,
00:25:35.03\00:25:38.13
in my life, when the Lord
said build a television station,
00:25:38.17\00:25:40.64
I didn't know what to do
but I took a step forward.
00:25:40.67\00:25:43.14
When I did that, God honored it.
00:25:43.17\00:25:44.51
You gave it the
title? The title?
00:25:44.54\00:25:46.61
The title of the book?
The blessing is on the go.
00:25:46.64\00:25:47.98
The blessing is on the go.
00:25:48.01\00:25:49.34
I thought it must have
been a typo when I got it.
00:25:49.38\00:25:50.71
No, no, no.
00:25:50.75\00:25:52.08
The blessing of God is on the go
00:25:52.11\00:25:53.45
because Jesus says,
"Go ye into all the world."
00:25:53.48\00:25:56.12
So when you go forward, if you--
00:25:56.15\00:25:57.75
I've seen people say,
well, boy, our church,
00:25:57.79\00:25:59.95
we need evangelistic series
00:25:59.99\00:26:01.32
but we just don't
have enough money to do it.
00:26:01.36\00:26:03.02
Yeah, I hear it all the time.
00:26:03.06\00:26:04.39
You know, sure,
we don't have enough.
00:26:04.43\00:26:05.76
No faith. Well,
there's not enough.
00:26:05.79\00:26:07.13
I say, step forward. Go forward.
00:26:07.16\00:26:08.76
When you do that, God
will bring in the finances,
00:26:08.80\00:26:11.30
but you can ask all you want.
00:26:11.33\00:26:13.10
Had I said, Lord I'll
build a television station,
00:26:13.13\00:26:15.54
but you open the
windows of heaven,
00:26:15.57\00:26:17.17
pour me out blessings
where there's not room enough
00:26:17.21\00:26:19.04
to receive it and
then I'll go forward.
00:26:19.07\00:26:21.44
I'd still be
sitting there today.
00:26:21.48\00:26:23.24
Probably died
from lack of movement.
00:26:23.28\00:26:25.48
But instead when I
said go, when Jesus says go
00:26:25.51\00:26:28.85
and I go, he blesses.
00:26:28.88\00:26:30.22
When the Lord says to
you, go, you go forward.
00:26:30.25\00:26:33.96
You don't have to
have all the answers.
00:26:33.99\00:26:36.09
Your faith doesn't even
begin till your sight ends.
00:26:36.12\00:26:38.99
So when you're going
forward and God's impressing you
00:26:39.03\00:26:41.66
to do something, remember that,
00:26:41.70\00:26:43.57
my faith doesn't even
begin till my sight ends.
00:26:43.60\00:26:45.97
When you can't see
it, you step forward.
00:26:46.00\00:26:48.07
And the blessing is on the go.
00:26:48.10\00:26:49.50
The blessing of
God is on the go.
00:26:49.54\00:26:50.94
The blessing is on the go.
00:26:50.97\00:26:52.94
I want to tell the
folks who are watching today,
00:26:52.97\00:26:55.08
pray about this because
Danny and I have got a dream.
00:26:55.11\00:26:58.48
Want to know what it is?
00:26:58.51\00:27:00.28
Let's go and run a great
evangelistic campaign in Cuba.
00:27:00.32\00:27:04.35
Amen. Praise the Lord. Cuba.
00:27:04.39\00:27:06.99
That's going to be
Russia all over again.
00:27:07.02\00:27:08.46
Make it another, All right.
00:27:08.49\00:27:10.06
Another Moscow. Absolutely.
00:27:10.09\00:27:11.79
Another Saint Petersburg. Yes.
00:27:11.83\00:27:13.63
But the blessing
is on the go. Yes.
00:27:13.66\00:27:15.16
