Here in the Jordan River, this is the traditional site 00:00:11.56\00:00:13.96 where people from all over the world come to be baptized. 00:00:13.96\00:00:17.43 They say the place where John was baptizing, 00:00:17.43\00:00:19.80 calling people to repentance. 00:00:19.80\00:00:22.76 Remission of their sins will be baptized 00:00:22.76\00:00:24.73 in the watery grave and come up 00:00:24.73\00:00:26.50 as a new believer in Jesus Christ. 00:00:26.50\00:00:28.26 One day, John looked and said, "Behold the Lamb of God, 00:01:04.00\00:01:07.80 which taketh away the sins of the world. 00:01:07.80\00:01:10.26 There is one among you," he said, 00:01:10.26\00:01:12.30 "Whose shoes I am not worthy to untie." 00:01:12.30\00:01:14.30 And people looked and said, "Where, where?" 00:01:14.30\00:01:18.03 Please don't miss this point 00:01:18.03\00:01:19.20 because Jesus was standing among the church, 00:01:19.20\00:01:22.63 the leadership, the people of the church of that day 00:01:22.63\00:01:25.76 and they didn't recognize the Savior, their Creator. 00:01:25.76\00:01:30.60 My friends, we need to be careful ourselves, 00:01:30.60\00:01:32.60 we must know Him, not just about Him. 00:01:32.60\00:01:36.10 We must know Him and Jesus went down 00:01:36.10\00:01:39.46 into the water as an example for you and for me. 00:01:39.46\00:01:42.46 This mosque is an extreme source 00:02:03.46\00:02:05.46 of irritation to the Jewish population 00:02:05.46\00:02:07.93 and especially as it causes additional damage 00:02:07.93\00:02:10.56 to the ancient walls. 00:02:10.56\00:02:13.63 Here and there, we've found that, 00:02:13.63\00:02:15.43 there were not many relics from Eon's past, 00:02:15.43\00:02:17.90 but we did discover a pillar from the time of Jesus. 00:02:17.90\00:02:22.76 In the early morning, 00:02:22.76\00:02:23.73 Jesus gathered with His disciples 00:02:23.73\00:02:25.33 along the seashore here, 00:02:25.33\00:02:27.60 but soon the crowds grew too large, 00:02:27.60\00:02:30.13 He wanted to specifically speak to them 00:02:30.13\00:02:32.30 but people wanted to hear the words of eternal life. 00:02:32.30\00:02:35.30 So soon they walked up the hill side here 00:02:35.30\00:02:37.90 to The Mount of Beatitudes, at least, 00:02:37.90\00:02:39.46 that's what we call it now. 00:02:39.46\00:02:41.13 He began sharing with them the words of eternal life. 00:02:41.13\00:02:44.43 You can read the writings of the Hindus, 00:02:44.43\00:02:46.46 the Quran, the PolyText, but you'll never read 00:02:46.46\00:02:48.80 anything or hear anything quite like 00:02:48.80\00:02:51.10 the Sermon on the Mount. 00:02:51.10\00:02:52.50 Changes men and women lives around the world, 00:02:52.50\00:02:54.56 my life, your life. It all happened right here, 00:02:54.56\00:02:59.30 right here overlooking The Sea of Galilee. 00:02:59.30\00:03:01.66 Jesus and the disciples had a long hard day of labor, 00:03:38.50\00:03:42.86 helping the people, instructing them, 00:03:42.86\00:03:44.53 caring for them, healing the sick. 00:03:44.53\00:03:47.43 They finally cast out on their boat here on 00:03:47.43\00:03:49.43 The Sea Of Galilee and Jesus fell fast asleep. 00:03:49.43\00:03:53.63 During the night, as the disciples are rowing, 00:03:53.63\00:03:55.33 all of a sudden a storm comes up. 00:03:55.33\00:03:58.10 The winds are blowing over the hills 00:03:58.10\00:03:59.76 and the Sea of Galilee 00:03:59.76\00:04:01.06 becomes a raging torrid of water, 00:04:01.06\00:04:03.40 it's filling the boat and the disciples 00:04:03.40\00:04:05.46 began to bail and bail and bail, 00:04:05.46\00:04:07.50 but these seasoned fishermen seem like at any moment, 00:04:07.50\00:04:10.33 they're going to die and they look around 00:04:10.33\00:04:13.00 and they say, "Where is Jesus?" 00:04:13.00\00:04:14.20 And all of a sudden as the lightening goes 00:04:14.20\00:04:15.90 across the bow they see Him 00:04:15.90\00:04:17.53 sound asleep in the back of the boat peaceful, calm. 00:04:17.53\00:04:22.03 And they say and yell, 00:04:22.03\00:04:23.20 perhaps some of the craziest words 00:04:23.20\00:04:24.83 that a Christian has ever spoken. 00:04:24.83\00:04:26.36 "Lord, don't you care that we're dying." 00:04:26.36\00:04:29.90 And of course, He did. He raised up, He stood up, 00:04:29.90\00:04:33.83 raised His hands and said, "Peace be still." 00:04:33.83\00:04:36.30 And billions and billions of gallons of water raging 00:04:36.30\00:04:39.00 and revolutionary storm on the Sea of Galilee 00:04:39.00\00:04:41.10 just smooth out like a mirror. 00:04:41.10\00:04:44.23 Other boats that had been in proximity 00:04:44.23\00:04:46.10 to the boat of Jesus, they all look and say, 00:04:46.10\00:04:48.86 "Well, what manner of man is this, 00:04:48.86\00:04:50.50 even the winds and the waves obey Him." 00:04:50.50\00:04:54.20 He was God incarnate. 00:04:54.20\00:04:55.46 He was the Creator of God of the universe 00:04:55.46\00:04:58.93 and everything obeyed the command of the Lord, 00:04:58.93\00:05:01.30 His voice brought peace and calm to everything. 00:05:01.30\00:05:05.13 Welcome. foreign language 00:05:12.96\00:05:17.60 Ludmila, I really appreciate the invitation 00:05:17.60\00:05:20.06 to come into your home today. 00:05:20.06\00:05:21.76 We are very thankful that you traveled to see us 00:05:21.76\00:05:25.20 and that you answered to our invitation. 00:05:25.20\00:05:29.63 Now if it's okay to ask, 00:05:29.63\00:05:31.33 I understand that you had some tragedy 00:05:31.33\00:05:33.60 in your life with a daughter, 00:05:33.60\00:05:35.20 I believe, would you mind sharing that? 00:05:35.20\00:05:37.60 I will briefly explain this happened far up north. 00:05:37.60\00:05:41.23 Me and my daughter lived there. 00:05:41.23\00:05:43.46 She got severe gangrene. 00:05:43.46\00:05:45.43 foreign language 00:05:48.90\00:05:53.26 But the time we managed to do anything, 00:05:53.26\00:05:56.20 we had no choice, 00:05:56.20\00:05:57.53 but to amputate her legs higher than her knees. 00:05:57.53\00:06:05.96 So, what happened to your life at that time? 00:06:05.96\00:06:09.46 I took my daughter and moved to Tula. 00:06:09.46\00:06:13.56 foreign language 00:06:13.56\00:06:16.80 What did you feel like mentally 00:06:16.80\00:06:19.26 and psychologically to have this happen to your daughter? 00:06:19.26\00:06:24.23 I was in a great sorrow and was left with no hope. 00:06:24.23\00:06:30.33 I did not know what to do. 00:06:30.33\00:06:33.20 So you had, you were not a Christian 00:06:33.20\00:06:36.93 or a member of a church or any belief at all? 00:06:36.93\00:06:41.26 I was an atheist, but something inside 00:06:41.26\00:06:44.23 had me believing that He was there. 00:06:44.23\00:06:47.16 foreign language 00:06:47.16\00:06:48.66 My mother was a believer. 00:06:56.40\00:06:58.03 I just had a job that require for me to be an atheist. 00:06:58.03\00:07:04.30 What did you do before retirement, 00:07:04.30\00:07:06.00 if you wouldn't mind sharing with me? 00:07:06.00\00:07:08.16 I worked my whole life 00:07:08.16\00:07:09.83 as a director for a Daycare Center. 00:07:09.83\00:07:13.23 So your profession, 00:07:13.23\00:07:15.43 your job called for you to be an atheist? 00:07:15.43\00:07:19.40 I have to say that, yes, we had to be atheist, 00:07:19.40\00:07:23.80 but deep inside we all believe in God. 00:07:23.80\00:07:28.60 So you reached this point in your life 00:07:28.60\00:07:30.36 where atheism offers you nothing, 00:07:30.36\00:07:33.10 now what, what happens? 00:07:33.10\00:07:36.03 When this sorrow happened in my life with my daughter, 00:07:36.03\00:07:39.66 I understood that the only place 00:07:39.66\00:07:42.30 I can find happiness is in Christ. 00:07:42.30\00:07:46.10 My first encounter with the Christ and the Bible was 00:07:46.10\00:07:50.40 when my daughter had her legs amputated. 00:07:50.40\00:07:55.23 So you started thinking about God 00:07:55.23\00:07:57.20 and the Bible before something happened 00:07:57.20\00:07:59.20 to your daughter. 00:07:59.20\00:08:00.36 After the amputation of my daughter's legs, 00:08:00.36\00:08:04.36 but deep inside I was always with Christ. 00:08:04.36\00:08:07.80 So please share what, what happened now in your life? 00:08:07.80\00:08:11.53 foreign language 00:08:13.56\00:08:14.73 When all this happen with my daughter, 00:08:14.73\00:08:17.86 I thought that there was no way out 00:08:17.86\00:08:20.63 not for Natasha and not for me. 00:08:20.63\00:08:23.40 foreign language 00:08:23.40\00:08:24.93 And when they took her in for surgery, 00:08:42.90\00:08:45.20 the locals' handout me a Bible 00:08:45.20\00:08:48.40 and that was the first time I ever held a Bible. 00:08:48.40\00:08:51.70 As you can see AWR is frontline mission radio. 00:08:55.13\00:08:59.13 Our first priority is to travel where missionaries cannot go. 00:08:59.13\00:09:03.63 We broadcast thousands of hours 00:09:03.63\00:09:05.66 each day in 70 major languages of the world. 00:09:05.66\00:09:09.50 AWR has the capability and capacity of blanketing 00:09:09.50\00:09:12.40 almost 80% of the world's population. 00:09:12.40\00:09:15.60 Not only do we broadcast via shortwave radio, 00:09:15.60\00:09:18.83 but our signal is on over 1000 FM and AM stations 00:09:18.83\00:09:22.73 around the world as well. 00:09:22.73\00:09:24.86 Our podcast subscribers, Internet users, 00:09:24.86\00:09:27.70 satellite downlinks are growing rapidly. 00:09:27.70\00:09:30.26 Evidenced by the 100,000 plus emails and letters 00:09:30.26\00:09:33.76 and phone calls we receive each and every year. 00:09:33.76\00:09:36.96 Yes, AWR is your mission radio. 00:09:36.96\00:09:40.43 No walls and no borders for AWR 00:09:40.43\00:09:42.90 that means changed lives and changed hearts 00:09:42.90\00:09:45.00 around the world because God is using the airways of AWR 00:09:45.00\00:09:49.46 to reach people everywhere. 00:09:49.46\00:09:51.33 Right behind me is the beautiful Sea of Galilee, 00:09:59.70\00:10:02.50 standing here in Capernaum. 00:10:02.50\00:10:04.60 These are some of the old houses that were here, 00:10:04.60\00:10:06.80 I'm told at the time of Jesus. 00:10:06.80\00:10:09.33 I just think about it, imagine Jesus walking 00:10:09.33\00:10:11.46 through these streets. 00:10:11.46\00:10:12.90 We're told that He spent a lot of time here, 00:10:12.90\00:10:14.50 they even called it the home of Jesus. 00:10:14.50\00:10:18.50 Think about it. 00:10:18.50\00:10:19.86 The Creator God of the Universe 00:10:19.86\00:10:21.26 walking these streets and healing 00:10:21.26\00:10:23.30 everyone He came in contact with. 00:10:23.30\00:10:26.33 I've been in India many times 00:10:26.33\00:10:27.96 and throngs tend to come around you from every side 00:10:27.96\00:10:30.93 because they want some kind of help. 00:10:30.93\00:10:33.26 The very little help we have is not much, 00:10:33.26\00:10:34.93 but Jesus, what Jesus broke up 00:10:34.93\00:10:37.16 every funeral he ever attended. 00:10:37.16\00:10:39.46 Imagine Jesus going into hospital in your town 00:10:39.46\00:10:43.00 and as he walked out, every single person 00:10:43.00\00:10:45.16 would come out rejoicing with Him. 00:10:45.16\00:10:47.26 Not a sick person left. 00:10:47.26\00:10:49.13 That's what happened 00:10:49.13\00:10:50.10 as Jesus went from town to town, 00:10:50.10\00:10:51.83 area to area and here in Capernaum also. 00:10:51.83\00:10:54.50 This synagogue is built over the site 00:11:10.56\00:11:12.70 of the original one that the Roman Centurion 00:11:12.70\00:11:14.76 had given funds for here in Capernaum. 00:11:14.76\00:11:17.93 This is why the Jewish elders 00:11:17.93\00:11:19.50 had recommended his needs to Jesus. 00:11:19.50\00:11:22.00 You see he had a servant who needed healing. 00:11:22.00\00:11:24.96 So he's asking Jesus to please help my servant. 00:11:24.96\00:11:27.76 Jesus immediately started to go with him. 00:11:27.76\00:11:29.83 Centurion said, 00:11:29.83\00:11:30.80 "No, you don't even need to go." 00:11:30.80\00:11:32.20 He says, "I'm a man in authority. 00:11:32.20\00:11:34.20 I say to one man to go and he goes, 00:11:34.20\00:11:35.73 I say to another to come and he comes. 00:11:35.73\00:11:38.40 All you need to do is speak the word." 00:11:38.40\00:11:41.06 Well, Jesus said, "I have not seen 00:11:41.06\00:11:42.80 so great faith in all of Israel. 00:11:42.80\00:11:45.90 Be it done" and at that moment 00:11:45.90\00:11:47.60 his servant was healed. 00:11:47.60\00:11:49.03 When I first opened the Bible, 00:11:58.90\00:12:01.30 I didn't know where to open it up to, 00:12:01.30\00:12:04.63 but I did feel calm, peaceful, and loving. 00:12:04.63\00:12:08.76 This feeling I have never felt before. 00:12:08.76\00:12:12.53 Where did you get a hold of a Bible? Where? 00:12:12.53\00:12:14.90 They just weren't everywhere around at the time, 00:12:14.90\00:12:16.63 were they or weren't they? 00:12:16.63\00:12:18.26 I wished my whole life that I can't have 00:12:18.26\00:12:20.93 a Bible in my hand, there were people 00:12:20.93\00:12:24.60 who believed and provided me with a Bible. 00:12:24.60\00:12:30.50 I have, I can't hardly imagine, 00:12:30.50\00:12:32.70 I've got dozens of Bibles at home, 00:12:32.70\00:12:36.16 I can't hardly imagine someone dreaming 00:12:36.16\00:12:39.26 their whole life to have a Bible and can't get one. 00:12:39.26\00:12:42.16 It was an amazing experience. 00:12:42.16\00:12:44.73 The first time I opened the Bible, 00:12:44.73\00:12:46.90 I felt so peaceful. Even though during the time, 00:12:46.90\00:12:52.03 my daughter was going through surgery, 00:12:52.03\00:12:55.53 I didn't know how to read the Bible, 00:12:55.53\00:12:58.23 I didn't know how to understand it, 00:12:58.23\00:13:00.80 but they explained it to me. 00:13:00.80\00:13:03.30 They told me to start reading Psalms. 00:13:03.30\00:13:07.00 I had a shocking situation 00:13:07.00\00:13:08.70 I realize that I can only have hope in God 00:13:08.70\00:13:12.20 and not anyone or anything else. 00:13:12.20\00:13:15.76 When Natasha was sleeping right before the check out, 00:13:15.76\00:13:19.20 I got down on my knees early, 00:13:19.20\00:13:21.73 early in the morning next to the window 00:13:21.73\00:13:24.56 and start praying. 00:13:24.56\00:13:26.03 I've prayed so deep that God heard me 00:13:26.03\00:13:29.43 when I was down praying I feels, 00:13:29.43\00:13:31.80 I felt a warming feeling surround my body. 00:13:31.80\00:13:35.40 I will never forget that feeling. 00:13:35.40\00:13:38.23 This was right after my prayer. 00:13:38.23\00:13:40.50 foreign language 00:13:40.50\00:13:43.56 Here in Jerusalem, perhaps it was a street 00:13:56.36\00:13:58.50 something like this that, 00:13:58.50\00:13:59.56 Jesus walked down with his disciples, 00:13:59.56\00:14:02.06 but at that time the throngs were pressing 00:14:02.06\00:14:03.93 in everywhere around Him. 00:14:03.93\00:14:05.30 People wanted to get close to Him. 00:14:05.30\00:14:08.20 But all of a sudden in the middle of all these 00:14:08.20\00:14:10.00 pushing and shoving, Jesus stopped, 00:14:10.00\00:14:12.33 He turns and said, "Who touched me?" 00:14:12.33\00:14:14.80 And for a moment everybody was looking at Him. 00:14:14.80\00:14:16.80 "What are you saying?" Everybody is touching you. 00:14:16.80\00:14:18.76 The disciple said, "Master, look at the throngs." 00:14:18.76\00:14:22.10 And then one dear little lady came up and said, 00:14:22.10\00:14:25.23 "I was the one who touched you." 00:14:25.23\00:14:27.86 And Jesus said, "You know, you are healed, 00:14:27.86\00:14:30.00 dear lady, because you touched me with faith, 00:14:30.00\00:14:33.46 you reached out and grabbed a hold me 00:14:33.46\00:14:35.16 with all that you had and desired to be healed." 00:14:35.16\00:14:39.20 Tremendous story, a casual touch does 00:14:39.20\00:14:41.43 nothing in our life, but the touch of faith, 00:14:41.43\00:14:44.26 grabbing a hold of Jesus, that's what changes. 00:14:44.26\00:14:47.03 On Jesus' final day, 00:14:51.50\00:14:53.56 He walked over the Mount of Olives, 00:14:53.56\00:14:55.66 Luke says, Chapter 24, "As far as to Bethany." 00:14:55.66\00:14:59.93 Why did he go there? 00:14:59.93\00:15:01.46 The Bible doesn't really tell us, 00:15:01.46\00:15:02.70 but I've got a good idea, 00:15:02.70\00:15:04.30 you see his best friends, Martha, 00:15:04.30\00:15:06.66 Mary, and Lazarus were all there. 00:15:06.66\00:15:08.83 And I think he simply wanted to tell them goodbye, 00:15:08.83\00:15:11.63 because out of all the people, 00:15:11.63\00:15:13.56 all the throngs that had pressured Him, 00:15:13.56\00:15:15.80 everyone that had pushed against Him 00:15:15.80\00:15:16.96 to get something from Him, 00:15:16.96\00:15:20.56 Martha, Mary, and Lazarus stayed very special 00:15:20.56\00:15:23.50 because they wanted a friendship with Him. 00:15:23.50\00:15:25.76 They wanted a real love relationship with Him. 00:15:25.76\00:15:29.23 The Bible says, "This is life eternal, 00:15:29.23\00:15:32.06 that they might know thee the only true God, 00:15:32.06\00:15:34.16 and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent." 00:15:34.16\00:15:37.26 I think of Ludmilla, 00:15:37.26\00:15:39.50 our dear lady that saw a cloud and a bright light 00:15:39.50\00:15:46.00 and that brought her all of a sudden 00:15:46.00\00:15:48.16 to her relationship with Jesus Christ 00:15:48.16\00:15:50.36 and she never wanted to let go. 00:15:50.36\00:15:53.10 I kind of look at her like Martha, 00:15:53.10\00:15:54.60 Mary, and Lazarus, those that wanted 00:15:54.60\00:15:57.13 that special time with Jesus. 00:15:57.13\00:15:58.70 Those that are looking forward to His soon return. 00:15:58.70\00:16:02.00 His shortly after Jesus visit with him, 00:16:02.00\00:16:05.30 He ascended to heaven and he said, 00:16:05.30\00:16:07.10 "This same Jesus shall so come in like manner." 00:16:07.10\00:16:10.03 Ludmilla is looking forward to that day, 00:16:10.03\00:16:13.23 as I hope all of us are too. 00:16:13.23\00:16:17.13 Through the radio wave of AWR 00:16:17.13\00:16:19.10 God is reaching people around the world. 00:16:19.10\00:16:22.70 We'd like to offer you an edition of Making Wave. 00:16:22.70\00:16:25.50 It's four of our episodes 00:16:25.50\00:16:26.70 brought to you from around the world. 00:16:26.70\00:16:29.20 God speaking to hearts, 00:16:29.20\00:16:30.76 the hearts of the listeners of AWR, exciting stories. 00:16:30.76\00:16:33.86 We hope that, you'll share those 00:16:33.86\00:16:35.30 with friends and neighbors, acquaintances, 00:16:35.30\00:16:37.06 any one you come in contact with. 00:16:37.06\00:16:38.70 Join us to make waves, it's completely free. 00:16:38.70\00:16:42.30 Right now the information is on your screen. 00:16:42.30\00:16:45.60 For your free no obligation DVD, 00:16:45.60\00:16:47.90 write to Adventist World Radio, 00:16:47.90\00:16:50.60 12501, Old Columbia Pike Silver Spring, 00:16:50.60\00:16:54.10 Maryland 20904 or call 1-866-503-3531 00:16:54.10\00:17:01.73 or log on to www.AWR.org/MWDVD 00:17:01.73\00:17:09.16 Be sure to request offer number 10, 00:17:09.16\00:17:11.46 that number again is 1-866-503-3531. 00:17:11.46\00:17:19.50 So you felt, as you were studying the Bible, 00:17:19.50\00:17:21.63 you knew you needed to find a group of people 00:17:21.63\00:17:25.40 that worship the way you felt, 00:17:25.40\00:17:27.86 the Bible was saying to. 00:17:27.86\00:17:29.90 Probably not necessary to connect, 00:17:29.90\00:17:33.46 I needed happiness, and I knew that beside God, 00:17:33.46\00:17:37.60 no one can help. 00:17:37.60\00:17:38.83 foreign language 00:17:40.56\00:17:41.90 Now you shared with me 00:17:44.06\00:17:45.30 before we sat down today 00:17:45.30\00:17:46.60 that you've turned on the radio 00:17:46.60\00:17:48.10 one day and what happened?

00:21:43.00\00:21:44.06 You are the one that was with Jesus." 00:21:44.06\00:21:45.30 He says, "No, I am not, no I am not." 00:21:45.30\00:21:47.30 And he hurdles a little lower, 00:21:47.30\00:21:49.40 but soon they recognize him again at this time. 00:21:49.40\00:21:52.10 He said, "No, I'm not the one." 00:21:52.10\00:21:55.06 But he hurdles a little more 00:21:55.06\00:21:56.16 and he takes another look still Jesus is being tried, 00:21:56.16\00:21:59.26 but soon someone says, 00:21:59.26\00:22:01.23 "you are the one, you are the very one." 00:22:01.23\00:22:03.56 And now he cusses and he swears 00:22:03.56\00:22:06.06 as an old fisherman that he used to be and as, 00:22:06.06\00:22:08.90 with the words dripping from his lips, 00:22:08.90\00:22:11.46 he looks and Jesus turns and looks at him 00:22:11.46\00:22:15.30 and his heart is broken and Peter runs away. 00:22:15.30\00:22:18.56 Most of the streets are new stones, 00:22:27.10\00:22:29.00 but this area they found three meters down, 00:22:29.00\00:22:31.40 these are the original pavements 00:22:31.40\00:22:32.90 where Jesus walked on the Via Dolorosa, 00:22:32.90\00:22:36.86 carried His cross here for you and for me. 00:22:36.86\00:22:39.43 It's interesting that just right over here 00:22:39.43\00:22:41.66 the men carrying machine guns. 00:22:41.66\00:22:43.63 I'm sure Jesus look forward to this time, 00:22:43.63\00:22:46.03 that's probably why He wept up there 00:22:46.03\00:22:48.40 on the hill overlooking Jerusalem. 00:22:48.40\00:22:50.16 I had realized how long and arduous 00:22:54.73\00:22:57.66 the track for Jesus was carrying 00:22:57.66\00:22:59.70 the cross of Calvary, because it's all up hill, 00:22:59.70\00:23:02.70 at this point on the Via Dolorosa, He collapsed, 00:23:02.70\00:23:06.80 He could no longer carry the cross and here we're told, 00:23:06.80\00:23:11.16 Simon picked it up and carried it for Him. 00:23:11.16\00:23:13.83 They've actually built a little chapel in this area 00:23:13.83\00:23:15.93 commemorating that moment. 00:23:15.93\00:23:17.16 We're in a location called the Garden Tomb. 00:23:23.53\00:23:25.86 Now this may not be the actual location 00:23:25.86\00:23:28.00 where Jesus was laid, but it's a tomb of someone 00:23:28.00\00:23:31.33 rich like Joseph of Arimathea. 00:23:31.33\00:23:34.13 They took Jesus off the cross. 00:23:34.13\00:23:36.16 They laid him in the tomb. 00:23:36.16\00:23:38.30 They sealed Him with a large stone. 00:23:38.30\00:23:41.33 One Sunday, the angel from heaven 00:23:41.33\00:23:43.56 came down as a lightening flash. 00:23:43.56\00:23:46.56 The Roman guard who was here to guard 00:23:46.56\00:23:49.03 the tomb and not allow entrance to anyone 00:23:49.03\00:23:51.23 lay as dead men, the angel called Jesus forth, 00:23:51.23\00:23:54.50 Jesus who had laid there dead was now resurrected. 00:23:54.50\00:23:58.43 Interesting point is, 00:23:58.43\00:24:00.26 the soldiers were from every country or many countries. 00:24:00.26\00:24:03.26 Imagine after their tour of duty had ended, 00:24:03.26\00:24:06.96 they went and told their countrymen everywhere, 00:24:06.96\00:24:09.20 thus the gospel was spread to many lands. 00:24:09.20\00:24:13.36 The angel stayed and waited and the women 00:24:13.36\00:24:16.63 showed up later that day to embalm the body of Jesus, 00:24:16.63\00:24:19.76 but the angel said, He's risen, He's not here. 00:24:19.76\00:24:22.73 He's going to meet all of you, 00:24:22.73\00:24:24.53 go tell His disciples and Peter, the Lord is risen. 00:24:24.53\00:24:28.16 Whatever you do, don't forget Peter 00:24:28.16\00:24:30.63 who denied Me, don't forget Peter 00:24:30.63\00:24:32.36 who has forsaken me, 00:24:32.36\00:24:33.33 don't forget Peter who is broken heart. 00:24:33.33\00:24:35.76 Remember Peter. 00:24:35.76\00:24:37.13 Oh, how much our Lord loves and calls and yearns 00:24:37.13\00:24:40.50 after every one of us. 00:24:40.50\00:24:41.56 It was during the 40 day period 00:24:47.60\00:24:49.16 after the resurrection of Jesus, 00:24:49.16\00:24:51.16 the disciples castoff one evening to go fishing. 00:24:51.16\00:24:54.50 That was the perfect time to catch fish. 00:24:54.50\00:24:56.93 As the sun began to rise, 00:24:56.93\00:24:58.40 they saw a stranger sitting here on the bank 00:24:58.40\00:25:02.03 and the stranger yelled out, have you caught anything? 00:25:02.03\00:25:04.33 They respond no, not a thing. 00:25:04.33\00:25:07.56 Then Jesus says, "Cast your net on the right 00:25:07.56\00:25:10.06 side of the ship." 00:25:10.06\00:25:11.96 They decide to listen, they cast the net in, 00:25:11.96\00:25:13.96 as they pull it up, it is so full of fish 00:25:13.96\00:25:16.10 they can't hardly bring it in. 00:25:16.10\00:25:17.43 At that moment Peter recognizes it's His Lord. 00:25:17.43\00:25:20.70 He strips down, he jumps in, he swims here to the shore, 00:25:20.70\00:25:23.70 leaving everybody else with the catch 00:25:23.70\00:25:25.20 to deal with all the fish. 00:25:25.20\00:25:27.16 He gets ashore and finds that Jesus has a little fire build. 00:25:27.16\00:25:30.30 He already has fish on the fire. 00:25:30.30\00:25:33.03 They come in finally with the catch. 00:25:33.03\00:25:35.16 They began sharing, eating and talking 00:25:35.16\00:25:37.96 and then Jesus begins to talk with Peter. 00:25:37.96\00:25:40.73 You remember that Peter had denied his Lord 00:25:40.73\00:25:42.96 three times and Jesus pointedly asked three times, 00:25:42.96\00:25:46.93 Peter, do you love me? Do you love me? 00:25:46.93\00:25:50.70 This time there is no boastfulness out of Peter. 00:25:50.70\00:25:53.03 Peter simply responds, Lord, you know I love you. 00:25:53.03\00:25:56.53 Before he said, 00:25:56.53\00:25:57.96 oh, I love you above all these others 00:25:57.96\00:25:59.96 but not now, because Peter had been converted. 00:25:59.96\00:26:03.93 Peter had Jesus Christ live in his life 00:26:03.93\00:26:07.50 and the Lord said "Peter, go feed my sheep." 00:26:07.50\00:26:11.66 Jesus had compassion on Ludmilla. 00:26:11.66\00:26:14.90 He helped give her hope and strength 00:26:14.90\00:26:18.23 just as He does to you and me. 00:26:18.23\00:26:20.66 So many ways whether it be her need for healing 00:26:20.66\00:26:24.03 or encouragement or whatever. 00:26:24.03\00:26:26.10 And usually when Jesus acts on his compassion, 00:26:26.10\00:26:29.53 He does it hand in hand with human agencies. 00:26:29.53\00:26:33.03 Here in the city of Jerusalem behind me 00:26:33.03\00:26:35.46 is one place where people many times 00:26:35.46\00:26:38.66 felt the compassion of Jesus 00:26:38.66\00:26:41.00 and His actions to meet their needs. 00:26:41.00\00:26:45.06 You also can work hand in hand 00:26:45.06\00:26:47.70 with Jesus to help people around you. 00:26:47.70\00:26:51.10 You can do that by partnering with AWR. 00:26:51.10\00:26:55.53 The waves of AWR are reaching around the world. 00:26:55.53\00:26:58.96 If you'd like to partner with us, give us a call, 00:26:58.96\00:27:00.90 1-866-503-3531 or you can write us at 12501, 00:27:00.90\00:27:07.53 Old Columbia Pike, Silver Spring, Maryland, 00:27:07.53\00:27:10.33 20904 or log on to our website www.awr.org 00:27:10.33\00:27:18.16 Thank you for watching and please, 00:27:18.16\00:27:19.83 join us again for another exciting gospel adventure, 00:27:19.83\00:27:22.80 because around the world AWR is making waves. 00:27:22.80\00:27:26.60
