As-Salaam-Alaikum to our
Muslim brothers and sisters,
00:00:41.20\00:00:45.74
shalom to our Hebrew cousins,
00:00:45.77\00:00:48.30
and peace be upon you
our Christian friends.
00:00:48.33\00:00:51.34
Welcome once again to
"The Descendants of Abraham."
00:00:51.37\00:00:55.25
What a blessing it is to
have you here with us today.
00:00:55.28\00:01:00.78
Do you know Abraham
believed in the supernatural?
00:01:00.81\00:01:06.01
He and Sarah were
too old to have children,
00:01:06.04\00:01:10.04
but God told them that they will
00:01:10.07\00:01:13.88
and they did
because Abraham believed.
00:01:13.91\00:01:18.89
Do you believe
in the supernatural?
00:01:18.92\00:01:21.92
Many today feel
that it is not civilized
00:01:21.95\00:01:25.89
to believe in these things.
00:01:25.92\00:01:28.91
That we should only
believe in what we can touch
00:01:28.94\00:01:33.05
or what we can
hear or what we can see.
00:01:33.08\00:01:36.77
But if we believe in the God
00:01:36.80\00:01:38.75
of the most high,
in the God of Abraham,
00:01:38.78\00:01:42.73
then we must
believe in the supernatural.
00:01:42.76\00:01:46.93
We cannot believe
in God if we don't.
00:01:46.96\00:01:53.79
What exactly is the
definition of supernatural?
00:01:53.82\00:01:57.30
Well, one of the
definitions I think that fit
00:01:57.33\00:02:01.05
very well is that
it is a force beyond
00:02:01.08\00:02:05.44
scientific understanding
or the laws of nature.
00:02:05.47\00:02:12.16
It is a force beyond
scientific understanding.
00:02:12.19\00:02:15.59
Believing in the supernatural
means that you believe
00:02:15.62\00:02:19.43
in what can't be seen
00:02:19.46\00:02:21.66
but you can see its effects.
00:02:21.69\00:02:27.07
I was exposed
to the supernatural
00:02:27.10\00:02:30.39
at a very young age.
00:02:30.42\00:02:32.97
I guess I should say,
starting at a very young age.
00:02:33.00\00:02:37.69
I used to
accompany my grandfather
00:02:37.72\00:02:40.30
who was an imam at that time.
00:02:40.33\00:02:45.06
When our
neighbors or our members
00:02:45.09\00:02:48.12
in the community would
call him, because someone,
00:02:48.15\00:02:52.15
some loved one
was demon possessed.
00:02:52.18\00:02:56.32
At that time I really
didn't understand at all,
00:02:56.35\00:03:00.11
but as I grew up,
I came to understand
00:03:00.14\00:03:02.21
and now I even believe more,
00:03:02.24\00:03:05.44
but I would go with my
grandfather and I would watch
00:03:05.47\00:03:10.18
as he would pray
over these people
00:03:10.21\00:03:13.45
and he always had some oil,
00:03:13.48\00:03:17.35
I really don't know what the
oil was but it was oil that he,
00:03:17.38\00:03:20.61
that was warmed up and he
put a little bit into their ear
00:03:20.64\00:03:24.92
and he would pray
over them some more
00:03:24.95\00:03:27.60
and then I would witness,
I would see this person,
00:03:27.63\00:03:33.24
as they, their
whole body convulsed
00:03:33.27\00:03:36.24
and they screamed
and writhed as this demon
00:03:36.27\00:03:43.23
was really being
exorcized out of their body.
00:03:43.26\00:03:50.52
Now I never saw
the demon that left,
00:03:50.55\00:03:54.12
but I saw the
effects afterwards,
00:03:54.15\00:03:57.69
after that demon left them.
00:03:57.72\00:04:00.22
The peace that was in their,
00:04:00.25\00:04:03.11
their bodies,
the peace that showed
00:04:03.14\00:04:05.38
on their face, the effects
00:04:05.41\00:04:09.89
of the prayer of my grandfather.
00:04:09.92\00:04:16.26
My journey in
recognizing and accepting Jesus
00:04:16.29\00:04:19.89
as the Son of God
began with the supernatural.
00:04:19.92\00:04:24.14
It was a set of
supernatural events that let me
00:04:24.17\00:04:27.87
to the one true God
and His Son Jesus Christ.
00:04:27.90\00:04:32.55
And it all
started with an explosion
00:04:32.58\00:04:35.14
in the home where I lived.
00:04:35.17\00:04:38.88
No one was home at the
time, so there were no injuries,
00:04:38.91\00:04:44.24
praise the Lord,
there were no injuries.
00:04:44.27\00:04:47.25
But first let me tell you, I
was raised to believe that God
00:04:47.28\00:04:50.63
did not have a son
and that such thinking
00:04:50.66\00:04:53.68
is blasphemy
against the Almighty.
00:04:53.71\00:04:57.02
But I want to tell
you that our father Abba
00:04:57.05\00:05:01.81
in heaven does have a Son.
00:05:01.84\00:05:04.59
I learned that Mary
was chosen by the Creator
00:05:04.62\00:05:07.88
only to carry Jesus in her
womb and be born into this world
00:05:07.91\00:05:14.33
the same way that you and
I, that all of us are born.
00:05:14.36\00:05:18.18
He had to walk,
this walk he had to take
00:05:18.21\00:05:21.96
that journey, like we did.
00:05:21.99\00:05:24.82
The Creator did not
have any relations with Mary
00:05:24.85\00:05:28.62
as some of us are told.
00:05:28.65\00:05:31.85
His son Jesus submitted to
His Father to become a baby
00:05:31.88\00:05:36.61
and to be placed
into Mary's womb.
00:05:36.64\00:05:39.12
That is why she was a
virgin, that is why it is said
00:05:39.15\00:05:43.53
that he was born of
a virgin and it says
00:05:43.56\00:05:45.97
that in the Holy
Scriptures in the Bible
00:05:46.00\00:05:49.44
and it says that in the
Quran that she was a virgin.
00:05:49.47\00:05:54.01
God wants to make
sure that we understand,
00:05:54.04\00:05:58.30
that this very special
baby was not for man or woman,
00:05:58.33\00:06:03.21
but was sent by
God to save the world.
00:06:03.24\00:06:08.43
Mary was like a surrogate
mother for the baby Jesus.
00:06:08.46\00:06:12.58
She is no different from
any other woman created by God
00:06:12.61\00:06:17.45
and should never- and
we should never worship
00:06:17.48\00:06:21.06
her as a divine being.
00:06:21.09\00:06:25.14
You know, today
with medical science
00:06:25.17\00:06:29.94
a baby can be
conceived outside of the womb
00:06:29.97\00:06:33.46
in a Petri dish, in a test tube.
00:06:33.49\00:06:36.95
Now if mankind can do this,
how arrogant we must be to think
00:06:36.98\00:06:43.34
that God does not have
the power to transform His son
00:06:43.37\00:06:49.23
into a baby into--place
Him, into the womb of a virgin
00:06:49.26\00:06:56.78
on this earth to carry Him.
00:06:56.81\00:06:59.40
Man can create
that baby but God can't,
00:06:59.43\00:07:04.96
we need to rethink this.
00:07:04.99\00:07:08.49
I was committed to
following the God of my father
00:07:08.52\00:07:11.70
and my culture, I
wanted to learn more
00:07:11.73\00:07:14.28
about the God of the Quran.
00:07:14.31\00:07:16.94
But the harder I studied,
the more questions I had.
00:07:16.97\00:07:21.05
I would attend the Islamic
school and ask questions,
00:07:21.08\00:07:24.87
but as always, I was told,
00:07:24.90\00:07:28.69
we must never
question the Creator.
00:07:28.72\00:07:34.20
When I left home and
traveled to another land,
00:07:34.23\00:07:37.86
I did not take
the Quran with me,
00:07:37.89\00:07:41.04
so I wanted my Quran.
00:07:41.07\00:07:44.39
I called my father
who is in another country,
00:07:44.42\00:07:48.34
and I asked him
to send me the Quran
00:07:48.37\00:07:51.11
and he did so right away.
00:07:51.14\00:07:54.75
One day there was a
explosion in my home
00:07:54.78\00:07:58.08
and as I said
before no one was there,
00:07:58.11\00:08:00.51
no one was
injured, and everything,
00:08:00.54\00:08:05.07
everything I discovered
that was around my Quran,
00:08:05.10\00:08:11.21
even the table that
the Quran was sitting on.
00:08:11.24\00:08:14.30
Everything was safe nothing
was destroyed except my Quran
00:08:14.33\00:08:21.60
which was burnt up.
Brothers and sisters,
00:08:21.63\00:08:26.10
we know you tried to
burn a hard cover like,
00:08:26.13\00:08:29.42
when I have the Quran,
00:08:29.45\00:08:30.60
you tried to
burn that into ashes,
00:08:30.63\00:08:32.39
it's not easy, much as
everything around it being safe,
00:08:32.42\00:08:37.01
being fine and those books that
book being burned into ashes.
00:08:37.04\00:08:42.75
What was this, I was astonished
that this could happen.
00:08:42.78\00:08:47.83
I did not know that it was just
the beginning of a long journey,
00:08:47.86\00:08:53.91
a journey for me, a journey
that was the one true God,
00:08:53.94\00:08:59.87
the God of
Abraham was taking me on.
00:08:59.90\00:09:04.67
There were many
other supernatural events
00:09:04.70\00:09:07.05
that took place on this journey,
00:09:07.08\00:09:08.71
but time does not
allow me to go into them all.
00:09:08.74\00:09:12.66
I remember I was
eating lunch one day
00:09:12.69\00:09:18.55
and I was just thinking about
everything that the Creator
00:09:18.58\00:09:22.29
was doing in my
life and the things that
00:09:22.32\00:09:24.19
He was teaching me,
00:09:24.22\00:09:27.63
and I was so surprised,
00:09:27.66\00:09:32.89
so astonished with some
of the things I was learning.
00:09:32.92\00:09:36.81
And as I sat there and I
am contemplating all of this,
00:09:36.84\00:09:42.80
I had this strange
sensation, it was like,
00:09:42.83\00:09:47.29
it was like--everything
around me was separated.
00:09:47.32\00:09:54.31
I was separated from everything
00:09:54.34\00:09:56.08
around me and I
felt this warmth,
00:09:56.11\00:10:00.42
and this brightness,
and this tingling sensation
00:10:00.45\00:10:05.12
in my body, it didn't
last long, seconds may be,
00:10:05.15\00:10:09.83
but I know, and
I know now actually
00:10:09.86\00:10:14.95
that it was the
presence of God with me.
00:10:14.98\00:10:20.05
I couldn't wait to share
this, this whole experience
00:10:20.08\00:10:24.45
with my family and all
the truth that I was learning,
00:10:24.48\00:10:27.47
I wanted to share with them.
00:10:27.50\00:10:29.96
Surely, they
would be interested.
00:10:29.99\00:10:31.86
Surely, they would want to
share this experience with me,
00:10:31.89\00:10:35.20
and know about
this God of Abraham
00:10:35.23\00:10:38.42
that I was learning about.
00:10:38.45\00:10:41.65
I called my daddy and I
shared with him all the things
00:10:41.68\00:10:48.80
I've learned,
that I was learning.
00:10:48.83\00:10:52.49
And to this day,
brothers and sisters,
00:10:52.52\00:10:54.39
and I think I've
mentioned this before,
00:10:54.42\00:10:56.20
and I am, it is still with me.
00:10:56.23\00:11:00.00
I remember, I
remember that click
00:11:00.03\00:11:04.80
of the phone and
I knew that my daddy
00:11:04.83\00:11:10.30
and my family will
not speak to me again.
00:11:10.33\00:11:18.26
I knew that at that point,
00:11:18.29\00:11:21.47
I was being separated from them.
00:11:21.50\00:11:24.73
I was disowned,
but after my father
00:11:24.76\00:11:31.07
hung up the phone, like Abraham,
00:11:31.10\00:11:35.22
like Ishmael, I felt
the pain of separation
00:11:35.25\00:11:39.78
and rejection and I still do.
00:11:39.81\00:11:44.02
But although it
was painful for me,
00:11:44.05\00:11:49.17
I knew I had to make a choice,
00:11:49.20\00:11:53.11
to follow God as
Abraham did or to follow man.
00:11:53.14\00:12:00.83
Even if that meant
that I had to be separated
00:12:00.86\00:12:04.51
from my family, as Abraham had
to be separated from his kin,
00:12:04.54\00:12:11.54
from his family,
from his native land.
00:12:11.57\00:12:14.72
Because I am a
daughter of Abraham,
00:12:20.79\00:12:23.46
I must have faith
in the supernatural
00:12:23.49\00:12:27.72
as father Abraham did.
00:12:27.75\00:12:31.68
Let me stress.
00:12:31.71\00:12:34.05
All supernatural
events must be in harmony
00:12:34.08\00:12:39.78
with the word of God.
00:12:39.81\00:12:41.88
It must be in
harmony with the word of God.
00:12:41.91\00:12:47.48
We like father Abraham
must be able to recognize
00:12:47.51\00:12:51.18
the voice of God and to
be obedient to Him only.
00:12:51.21\00:12:56.17
Make sure that you are
not following strange voices.
00:12:56.20\00:13:01.84
Read the word.
00:13:01.87\00:13:04.46
These words of
Jesus brought me comfort
00:13:04.49\00:13:07.27
when my family disowned me.
00:13:07.30\00:13:10.30
In the Injil, in Mathew 10:37,
00:13:10.33\00:13:15.34
here is what it
says, "He who loves father
00:13:15.37\00:13:20.31
or mother more than
Me is not worthy of Me.
00:13:20.34\00:13:25.21
And he who loves
son or daughter more
00:13:25.24\00:13:28.49
than Me is not worthy of Me."
00:13:28.52\00:13:35.03
I knew in my heart, in my soul
00:13:35.06\00:13:39.91
that like father Abraham,
I had to make the choice
00:13:39.94\00:13:45.24
to follow the
living God and leave
00:13:45.27\00:13:47.85
all my relatives behind.
00:13:47.88\00:13:50.69
You know there were
others who recognized
00:13:50.72\00:13:53.79
Jesus as the
Savior of all nations.
00:13:53.82\00:13:56.71
The Creator gave
King Solomon this prophecy
00:13:56.74\00:14:00.47
about a thousand years
before Jesus came to this earth.
00:14:00.50\00:14:05.27
Let's read that scripture,
00:14:05.30\00:14:07.35
it's from the
Psalms 72:10, 11, 15,
00:14:07.38\00:14:14.52
"The kings of Tarshish and of
the Isles will bring presents.
00:14:15.65\00:14:21.18
The kings of Sheba
and Seba will offer gifts.
00:14:21.21\00:14:25.42
Yes, all kings shall
fall down before Him,
00:14:25.45\00:14:29.47
all nations shall serve Him
00:14:29.50\00:14:31.77
and the gold of Sheba
will be given to Him."
00:14:31.80\00:14:36.93
That was a
prophecy that the Creator
00:14:36.96\00:14:41.38
gave to Solomon, King Solomon.
00:14:41.41\00:14:43.85
Let's look at the
fulfillment of that prophecy
00:14:43.88\00:14:46.97
in the Injil in
Mathew 2:1, 2 and 11,
00:14:47.00\00:14:52.41
"Now after Jesus was
born in Bethlehem of Judea
00:14:52.44\00:14:56.43
in the days of Herod
the king, behold, wise men
00:14:56.46\00:15:01.34
from the East come
to Jerusalem, saying,
00:15:01.37\00:15:05.52
where is He who has
been born King of the Jews?
00:15:05.55\00:15:09.83
For we have seen
His star in the East
00:15:09.86\00:15:13.01
and have come to worship Him.
00:15:13.04\00:15:15.70
And when they had
come into the house,
00:15:15.73\00:15:18.51
they saw the young
Child with Mary His mother,
00:15:18.54\00:15:21.91
and fell down
and worshipped him.
00:15:21.94\00:15:25.18
And when they had
opened their treasures,
00:15:25.21\00:15:28.20
they presented
gifts to Him, gold,
00:15:28.23\00:15:31.39
frankincense, and myrrh."
00:15:31.42\00:15:36.09
These wise men were believed
to be eastern philosophers,
00:15:36.12\00:15:40.43
they were men of
integrity and wisdom.
00:15:40.46\00:15:43.55
They studied the
workings of the natural world.
00:15:43.58\00:15:47.80
They were not Jews,
and they did not have
00:15:47.83\00:15:50.47
any formal religion
but the Creator would use
00:15:50.50\00:15:54.77
these wise men to
announce the birth of His
00:15:54.80\00:15:58.60
sinless Son into
this sinful world.
00:15:58.63\00:16:05.28
As these men
studied the heavens,
00:16:05.31\00:16:07.43
they noticed a bright star
00:16:07.46\00:16:09.33
that they had never
before seen in the sky.
00:16:09.36\00:16:12.55
They wanted to know what
it was and its significance,
00:16:12.58\00:16:16.71
so they searched the
Hebrews scriptures to see
00:16:16.74\00:16:19.61
if there was anything written
00:16:19.64\00:16:21.11
there to explain this bright
star, because they had heard
00:16:21.14\00:16:24.85
that the Hebrew
scriptures foretold
00:16:24.88\00:16:29.81
of a lot of
events that were coming,
00:16:29.84\00:16:32.28
so it was logical that that's
00:16:32.31\00:16:34.11
where they would
go to study this.
00:16:34.14\00:16:36.51
They remembered
some of the prophecies
00:16:36.54\00:16:38.47
that was told in
their own land about
00:16:38.50\00:16:41.32
a divine
teacher who was to come.
00:16:41.35\00:16:45.88
In studying the Torah,
the wise philosophers found
00:16:45.91\00:16:49.64
the prophecy of Balaam
in the Book of Numbers.
00:16:49.67\00:16:52.61
Here's what that prophecy said,
00:16:52.64\00:16:54.74
in the Book of Numbers 24:17,
00:16:54.77\00:17:01.09
"I see Him, but not now,
I behold Him, but not near.
00:17:01.12\00:17:08.15
A Star shall come out of Jacob,
00:17:08.18\00:17:10.57
A Scepter shall
rise out of Israel."
00:17:10.60\00:17:16.46
They wondered, could this star
00:17:16.49\00:17:21.55
be the fulfillment
of the promised one?
00:17:21.58\00:17:25.11
As they continued
to search for truth,
00:17:25.14\00:17:28.55
God gave them
even greater light,
00:17:28.58\00:17:32.10
through dreams they were lead to
search out the new born prince.
00:17:32.13\00:17:37.61
Just like Abraham, they
followed the instructions
00:17:37.64\00:17:41.24
without knowing
where they were going.
00:17:41.27\00:17:45.36
They believed the prophecies of
the coming of the promised One
00:17:45.39\00:17:49.37
and they were
excited at finding Him.
00:17:49.40\00:17:54.13
They had to travel by
night, so that they could see
00:17:54.16\00:17:57.66
the star and follow it.
00:17:57.69\00:18:00.50
The journey was long
but the stars finally
00:18:00.53\00:18:03.11
rested over the
temple in Jerusalem.
00:18:03.14\00:18:07.05
The Magis as they are also
called hurried into Jerusalemx
00:18:07.08\00:18:11.00
inquiring about
the Messiah's birth.
00:18:11.03\00:18:15.66
Let us look at
the record Mathew 2:2,
00:18:15.69\00:18:19.36
in the Injil again Matthew 2:2,
00:18:19.39\00:18:23.22
"Where is He who has
been born King of the Jews?
00:18:23.25\00:18:27.60
For we have seen
His star in the East
00:18:27.63\00:18:30.24
and have come to worship Him."
00:18:30.27\00:18:33.89
Well, as they enquired,
they were disappointed.
00:18:33.92\00:18:38.26
It seems that no one
in that city was aware
00:18:38.29\00:18:41.87
of this blessed event,
but the news of the wise men
00:18:41.90\00:18:46.69
search-- the
news of the wise men
00:18:46.72\00:18:49.41
search reached King Herod.
00:18:49.44\00:18:53.18
Herod was troubled by this news.
00:18:53.21\00:18:55.88
And in order to find out
where the Christ would be,
00:18:55.91\00:18:59.83
he asked the wise
men to be brought,
00:18:59.86\00:19:03.35
that the wise men
be brought to him.
00:19:03.38\00:19:05.28
Let's read the little of
the story from the Injil again,
00:19:05.31\00:19:08.22
Mathew 2:3-6, "When
Herod the king heard this,
00:19:08.25\00:19:15.28
he was troubled, and
all Jerusalem with him.
00:19:15.31\00:19:19.17
And when he had
gathered all the chief priests
00:19:19.20\00:19:23.04
and scribes of
the people together,
00:19:23.07\00:19:26.03
he inquired of them where
the Christ was to be born.
00:19:26.06\00:19:30.56
And so they said to
him, In Bethlehem of Judea,
00:19:30.59\00:19:34.60
for thus it is
written by the prophet.
00:19:34.63\00:19:38.42
But you, Bethlehem,
in the land of Judah,
00:19:38.45\00:19:41.80
are not the least
among the rulers of Judah.
00:19:41.83\00:19:45.33
For out of you
shall come a ruler
00:19:45.36\00:19:48.51
who will shepherd
My people Israel."
00:19:48.54\00:19:54.14
At this time Herod called
the wise men from the east
00:19:54.17\00:19:57.98
and questioned what
time the star appeared.
00:19:58.01\00:20:01.92
He needed to know
who was this ruler
00:20:01.95\00:20:05.22
that was coming,
he felt threatened.
00:20:05.25\00:20:08.13
He was scared.
00:20:08.16\00:20:09.37
Who was this new
ruler, who was this king
00:20:09.41\00:20:12.35
that they were talking about
that was coming to Jerusalem?
00:20:12.38\00:20:16.77
That was going to be born there,
he had his own intentions,
00:20:16.80\00:20:21.34
he sent them into Bethlehem
and asked them to report back
00:20:21.37\00:20:24.74
to him where the child was.
00:20:24.77\00:20:28.11
His intention was
to kill the child.
00:20:28.14\00:20:31.21
But the Creator God
knew Herod's intentions
00:20:31.24\00:20:35.16
and He instructed the
wise men through a dream
00:20:35.19\00:20:38.65
that they were not
to go back to Herod
00:20:38.68\00:20:42.14
but to return to
their own country.
00:20:42.17\00:20:47.08
The Creator would never allow
men to interfere in His plans.
00:20:47.11\00:20:54.87
To save His
children, to save us,
00:20:54.90\00:20:59.42
He loves us and
He gives a choice
00:20:59.45\00:21:02.76
to follow Him or to reject Him.
00:21:02.79\00:21:05.77
But He does not change
00:21:05.80\00:21:08.11
to accommodate our traditions.
00:21:08.14\00:21:13.84
Many, many other prophets
of the Bible told the about
00:21:13.87\00:21:20.40
the birth and the treatment
that Jesus would receive
00:21:20.43\00:21:24.94
from the hands of His people.
00:21:24.97\00:21:27.92
We would look at some of those
prophecies in future programs
00:21:27.95\00:21:33.33
that will point to Jesus,
not only as the Son of God,
00:21:33.36\00:21:38.71
not only as the Lamb of
God, but also as the Son of God.
00:21:38.74\00:21:43.76
You know, Jesus said in John
00:21:43.79\00:21:49.68
and I'll read this to you.
00:21:49.71\00:21:51.35
Let me read this to you.
00:21:51.38\00:21:53.48
"I told you and you
do not believe the works
00:21:53.51\00:21:58.32
that I do in my father's
name, they bear witness of me,
00:21:58.35\00:22:02.83
but you do not believe because
00:22:02.86\00:22:06.17
you're not of my
sheep, as I said to you.
00:22:06.20\00:22:10.65
My sheep hear my voice and I
know them and they follow me.
00:22:10.68\00:22:17.49
And I give them eternal life
and they shall never perish,
00:22:17.52\00:22:23.85
neither shall anyone
snatch them out of My hand.
00:22:23.88\00:22:28.61
My father who has
given them to Me is greater
00:22:28.64\00:22:33.75
than all and no one
is able to snatch them
00:22:33.78\00:22:38.38
out of my father's hand."
00:22:38.41\00:22:40.98
I and my father, and when Jesus
00:22:41.01\00:22:46.43
said those things,
the people around Him
00:22:46.46\00:22:51.54
were ready to stone Him.
00:22:51.57\00:22:54.20
They did not want to
hear what He had to say,
00:22:54.23\00:22:57.22
they rejected Him.
00:22:57.25\00:23:00.51
Brother and sister Ishmaelites,
00:23:00.54\00:23:05.41
don't reject Him.
00:23:05.44\00:23:08.88
Please listen for His voice.
00:23:08.91\00:23:13.42
He will, He will call you.
00:23:13.45\00:23:16.67
He will come to
you, He will teach you,
00:23:16.70\00:23:19.53
if your heart is
open, if you are willing,
00:23:19.56\00:23:24.71
He will bring you to the
knowledge of the true God,
00:23:24.74\00:23:29.26
the one true God of Abraham.
00:23:29.29\00:23:35.93
I pray, I pray that you will,
00:23:35.96\00:23:43.35
that you will go and search,
00:23:43.38\00:23:46.60
search a heart, if
you don't have the tools,
00:23:46.63\00:23:51.47
write to me,
write and ask questions.
00:23:51.50\00:23:55.59
If you want to
know more write to me,
00:23:55.62\00:23:58.53
I'll answer your questions,
I will give you the tools
00:23:58.56\00:24:01.97
so that you can
search yourselves.
00:24:02.00\00:24:05.22
Jesus the Christ
is the Lamb of God.
00:24:05.25\00:24:09.74
He is the scent of God.
00:24:09.77\00:24:12.76
Don't be like the
people that I read
00:24:12.79\00:24:15.36
about here, don't reject Him.
00:24:15.39\00:24:18.91
Please open your heart to Him.
00:24:18.94\00:24:22.98
I'll be right
back, stay with us.
00:24:23.01\00:24:25.40

Descendants of Abraham,

Brothers and sisters, if
you'll trust in the Creator
00:25:16.31\00:25:19.64
to guide you, He will show
you all truth that leads to Him.
00:25:19.67\00:25:23.91
All you have to do
is to ask, that is all.
00:25:23.94\00:25:28.06
Just pray and ask
00:25:28.09\00:25:30.24
the God of
Abraham, what is truth.
00:25:30.27\00:25:33.84
Tell Him that you
want to be lead into truth
00:25:33.87\00:25:37.56
and I promise
you, He will lead you.
00:25:37.59\00:25:43.57
Next time we will
look at the question.
00:25:43.60\00:25:46.31
Who does Jesus say He is?
00:25:46.34\00:25:48.88
Is He a great prophet?
00:25:48.91\00:25:51.20
Is He a liar or is
He truly the Son of God?
00:25:51.23\00:25:57.63
I would like to pray with you.
00:25:57.66\00:26:00.82
Oh, God of Abraham, Isaac,
00:26:04.92\00:26:09.41
Jacob, Ishmael, Father God,
00:26:09.44\00:26:14.58
I pray that you will
touch the hearts of every person
00:26:14.61\00:26:21.50
that is watching this
right now, that has joined me
00:26:21.53\00:26:25.19
in this program that
you will soften their hearts
00:26:25.22\00:26:29.52
and open their minds to
your truth that Your Holy Spirit
00:26:29.55\00:26:35.21
will illuminate their
minds with a precious truth
00:26:35.24\00:26:42.74
of the one true
God, the God of Abraham,
00:26:42.77\00:26:46.10
the living God and
His Son, Jesus Christ.
00:26:46.13\00:26:51.68
Father, I am just an
instrument in your hand,
00:26:51.71\00:26:55.68
all I can do is give the message
but it is You that drives
00:26:55.71\00:27:02.07
it into the heart
and into the mind.
00:27:02.10\00:27:04.36
I pray that you will
do that at this time.
00:27:04.39\00:27:08.13
In the name of Jesus Christ,
00:27:08.16\00:27:12.15
your beloved Son, amen.
00:27:12.18\00:27:17.44
Until then God willing,
we pray that the Almighty
00:27:17.47\00:27:22.50
will bless you and keep you safe
in your search for His truth.
00:27:22.53\00:27:27.40
And there is only
one God and one truth.
00:27:27.43\00:27:33.74
See you next week.
00:27:33.77\00:27:35.60
