Previously on Law
of Love & Liberty:
00:00:39.73\00:00:43.10
For no other name but that name
00:00:43.30\00:00:45.37
is entitled to our worship.
00:00:45.57\00:00:47.64
No other name but that name
00:00:48.04\00:00:50.45
has earned the
right to our reverence.
00:00:50.65\00:00:53.15
No other name but that name
00:00:53.35\00:00:55.75
can ever merit our praise.
00:00:55.95\00:00:58.32
Because when you're
studying the fourth commandment,
00:01:11.57\00:01:13.97
when we're considering the
importance and significance
00:01:14.37\00:01:17.11
of the Sabbath commandment
00:01:17.31\00:01:18.67
you cannot... What
word did I just use?
00:01:18.87\00:01:21.08
You cannot separate the Creator
00:01:21.48\00:01:24.58
from the Sabbath.
00:01:24.98\00:01:26.31
God will help you to keep
the Sabbath if you make a stand.
00:01:26.82\00:01:30.29
Amen? He wants to
spend that time with you
00:01:30.69\00:01:34.16
on the Sabbath.
00:01:34.36\00:01:35.69
"Honor thy father and thy
mother that thy days may be long
00:01:36.09\00:01:39.09
upon the land... " If
ever there was a time that you
00:01:39.29\00:01:41.93
young folk need to be
investing in your eternal life,
00:01:42.13\00:01:44.80
it's now. Can you say "Amen? "
00:01:45.20\00:01:47.14
Hello and welcome to
3ABN Spring Camp Meeting.
00:01:50.57\00:01:53.68
We've been
having a wonderful time.
00:01:53.88\00:01:55.64
A wonderful group of people from
here and some places as far away
00:01:55.84\00:01:59.55
as I see Russia over here
and Australia as we mentioned.
00:01:59.75\00:02:02.68
Many other
places... some of the islands.
00:02:03.08\00:02:05.09
And for those of you at
home thank you for joining us
00:02:05.29\00:02:07.62
from wherever you
are around the world.
00:02:07.82\00:02:09.89
This is Camp Meeting.
It's a time to come together
00:02:10.09\00:02:12.46
to praise the Lord,
to worship the Lord.
00:02:12.66\00:02:14.50
And I don't know about
you... and it sounds repetitious
00:02:14.90\00:02:17.43
but I'm not the only
one that says it: you all do
00:02:17.63\00:02:20.24
it 'cause you
come up to us and say:
00:02:20.44\00:02:22.04
"I think this is the
best Camp Meeting yet. "
00:02:22.24\00:02:24.27
Anybody said that so far?
00:02:25.14\00:02:26.81
Oh yes! I know.
Every year we do that
00:02:27.01\00:02:29.94
and it seems like does
this just keep getting better?
00:02:30.15\00:02:32.61
Well, that's the way it's
going to be in heaven, right?
00:02:32.81\00:02:34.68
Gonna keep gettin'
better and better...
00:02:34.88\00:02:36.22
"gooder and gooder" we
used to say, all right?
00:02:36.35\00:02:38.09
But better and
better, so I'll have to behave
00:02:38.29\00:02:40.12
while I'm up on the
stage, you know... live.
00:02:40.32\00:02:41.99
So it's better... I
have a teacher here. In fact,
00:02:42.39\00:02:44.79
talk to us, Jill, a little
bit about Francine and Jason.
00:02:44.99\00:02:48.56
We are so excited that
God brought Jason and Francine
00:02:48.76\00:02:51.77
Bergmann to the 3ABN family.
00:02:51.97\00:02:53.54
Francine is a teacher, and
she is our new Kids Network
00:02:53.74\00:02:57.21
general manager, and
she's just beginning.
00:02:57.41\00:03:00.38
And Francine,
talk to us about...
00:03:00.78\00:03:02.41
I know we have upcoming programs
at the end of the month:
00:03:02.61\00:03:04.75
Kids Camp. We do!
We have a lot going on!
00:03:04.95\00:03:07.75
Starting June
24th through the 27th
00:03:07.95\00:03:10.22
we have a whole bunch of kids
coming, at least 40 per day,
00:03:10.42\00:03:13.89
and it is a whole production.
We have 3ABN coming on
00:03:14.09\00:03:18.59
and staffing and being
a part of this Kids Camp.
00:03:18.79\00:03:21.93
So there's a lot
of programs going on.
00:03:22.13\00:03:25.07
Hopefully setting up for
at least 100 new programs.
00:03:25.27\00:03:28.84
How many? At
least... more than 100.
00:03:29.04\00:03:31.64
This year or
just? Just this summer.
00:03:31.84\00:03:33.94
Just in a couple weeks? I'm
going to say in 2-1/2 weeks.
00:03:34.14\00:03:37.58
Four days. Greg's
the production manager.
00:03:37.78\00:03:40.48
He should know.
A hundred programs!
00:03:40.68\00:03:42.22
Is that an amazing task or not?
00:03:42.42\00:03:44.45
And we haven't done that
many programs in a few years
00:03:44.85\00:03:47.82
I would say, but that's amazing.
00:03:48.02\00:03:49.42
So thank you all for
production and Francine,
00:03:49.62\00:03:52.19
Jill, all of you, Greg...
everybody that's a part of that.
00:03:52.39\00:03:55.03
That's an amazing taking,
Bruce, to say we're going to do
00:03:55.23\00:03:58.77
100 programs in
4 days... over 100.
00:03:58.97\00:04:01.84
It's the Lord's blessing - it
is - and the Lord's motivation
00:04:02.30\00:04:05.27
and the Holy Spirit
that talks to these people
00:04:05.47\00:04:07.64
and takes control, and the
parents that send their children
00:04:07.84\00:04:11.31
to help out. And I
just praise His name
00:04:11.51\00:04:13.65
for His leading in
this area in the ministry.
00:04:14.05\00:04:16.89
And I'm also thankful to
hear the Ten Commandments
00:04:17.09\00:04:21.02
explained. When
I was a young man
00:04:21.22\00:04:24.59
I didn't like the Ten Command-
ments. In fact, I wanted to
00:04:24.99\00:04:27.73
break them. And now
I want to keep them.
00:04:27.93\00:04:32.27
OK. And the reason
I want to keep them
00:04:32.47\00:04:34.87
is 'cause God asked me to
00:04:35.07\00:04:37.11
and it creates a peaceful life.
00:04:37.31\00:04:40.28
Why would anyone not
want to keep the commandments?
00:04:40.48\00:04:44.58
Today Honor Your Parents fits
right in with the children's
00:04:45.51\00:04:47.98
programs that are coming
up. It's going to be good.
00:04:48.18\00:04:51.35
It's going to be great.
00:04:51.55\00:04:53.96
Where is Johnny
Dinzey? There he is.
00:04:54.32\00:04:56.16
Johnny, you got a little
word for us a little bit here?
00:04:56.36\00:04:58.46
Well you know, listening
to the messages, Danny,
00:04:59.09\00:05:01.73
it's marvelous what's going
on because it made me think of
00:05:03.77\00:05:06.84
John 17:3. "And
this is life eternal:
00:05:07.04\00:05:09.64
that they may know
Thee, the only True God,
00:05:10.04\00:05:12.27
and Jesus Christ
whom Thou hast sent. "
00:05:12.47\00:05:14.28
And you see, the Ten Command-
ments come from the mind of God.
00:05:14.68\00:05:18.21
Knowing God, you
should know the commandments,
00:05:18.71\00:05:22.08
learn to love them because
they come from the mind of God,
00:05:22.28\00:05:25.42
and in this you are
entering into life eternal.
00:05:25.62\00:05:29.26
Wow! So what 3ABN is
doing is a marvelous thing:
00:05:29.46\00:05:31.69
sharing information to
help people know who God is.
00:05:31.89\00:05:35.06
Amen. Thank you. I want to in-
troduce Francine's better half.
00:05:35.26\00:05:39.57
Or Francine's the
better half, so I said that
00:05:39.77\00:05:41.60
completely the wrong way.
00:05:41.80\00:05:43.34
But we are so blessed
that God brought Jason here.
00:05:43.54\00:05:46.61
He is our CFO. We spoke opening
night about Brian Hamilton
00:05:46.81\00:05:50.11
retiring, and God brought
us Jason, and we're so blessed
00:05:50.31\00:05:52.75
to have you here. Thank
you. Yeah, I'm glad you just
00:05:52.95\00:05:55.65
changed that because tonight
would have been something!
00:05:55.85\00:05:58.39
No... it's good to be here.
00:05:58.89\00:06:00.79
And I want to thank all of
you who are supporting 3ABN.
00:06:00.99\00:06:03.99
It's a blessing, and without you
00:06:04.59\00:06:06.80
we would not be on the air.
00:06:07.20\00:06:09.06
So thank you also to
those who are listening,
00:06:09.26\00:06:11.63
those who are on the radio.
00:06:11.83\00:06:13.20
We want to thank
you for your support,
00:06:13.40\00:06:16.10
and I can tell you that
every dollar is used wisely
00:06:16.30\00:06:20.61
as we share the
good news together.
00:06:20.81\00:06:22.64
Amen! Well, we're going
to have some music for you:
00:06:23.14\00:06:25.71
Reggie and Ladye Love
Smith. Anybody happy about that?
00:06:25.91\00:06:28.48
They're here tonight.
00:06:28.68\00:06:30.09
And Reggie took off from
his busy schedule, you know,
00:06:30.29\00:06:33.46
as a Gaither
Vocal Band singer there.
00:06:33.66\00:06:36.02
I tease him about that.
For the last couple years
00:06:36.22\00:06:39.33
he's been traveling
literally I mean day and night
00:06:39.73\00:06:42.70
in the bus going
all around this country
00:06:42.90\00:06:45.20
to huge venues. And
so I tell him: "Reggie,
00:06:45.60\00:06:48.37
we just feel special that
though you're in the big times
00:06:48.57\00:06:51.31
you still come to little 3ABN. "
00:06:51.51\00:06:53.31
But they say:
"No... wherever God is
00:06:53.51\00:06:55.61
and wherever His house of
worship is and we get a chance
00:06:55.81\00:06:58.18
we're going to be there. "
00:06:58.38\00:06:59.71
And so we love
them... they're great friends
00:06:59.78\00:07:01.68
and wonderful
people. And then of course
00:07:01.88\00:07:03.79
Big Gene McDonald last night.
Didn't he do a beautiful job?
00:07:03.99\00:07:07.19
What an incredible voice!
00:07:07.39\00:07:09.19
And he's going to be
singing for us here tonight.
00:07:09.39\00:07:11.43
And so we're going to
have some great preaching,
00:07:11.63\00:07:14.00
so it's going to be
another night that we believe
00:07:14.20\00:07:16.60
the Holy Spirit's going to
be here. And I'm sure it will be
00:07:16.80\00:07:18.93
as soon as you
pray, Pastor John.
00:07:19.13\00:07:20.97
All right... all
right. Let's bow our heads.
00:07:21.17\00:07:22.60
Gracious Father in heaven,
it's amazing what happens
00:07:23.00\00:07:25.01
when You plug something in.
00:07:25.21\00:07:27.68
Lord, tonight "plug
in" Your servants again.
00:07:28.08\00:07:31.71
There's a power
that we do not have.
00:07:32.11\00:07:33.72
We cannot possess
it; we cannot use it.
00:07:33.92\00:07:35.78
We don't want to use that
power even to take the glory
00:07:36.18\00:07:39.22
that belongs only to You.
00:07:39.42\00:07:40.96
So tonight, anoint Your
manservants, Your maidservants,
00:07:41.12\00:07:43.96
and even the ears and
hearts of those who are watching
00:07:44.36\00:07:46.59
and listening to this program.
00:07:46.80\00:07:48.20
And may the glory of God
once again reveal through His
00:07:48.40\00:07:51.20
precepts, His character, the
10 Words - the 10 Commandments.
00:07:51.40\00:07:54.90
May we also be empowered
to live in harmony with them
00:07:55.10\00:07:59.07
that one day we will hear
the words: "Blessed are those
00:07:59.27\00:08:02.84
who keep His commandments
00:08:03.04\00:08:04.38
that they may have a
right to the Tree of Life
00:08:04.75\00:08:07.18
and may enter in through
the gates into the city. "
00:08:07.38\00:08:10.22
In Jesus' name we pray,
Amen. Thank you all so much.
00:08:10.42\00:08:14.42
When I think about what
the law of God means to me
00:08:15.86\00:08:18.59
it's something
that's very personable.
00:08:18.79\00:08:21.10
A lot of times when we
think about laws we think:
00:08:21.30\00:08:23.03
"Oh, this is a bunch
of 'do's' and 'don'ts.
00:08:23.23\00:08:25.33
Why do I even have
to follow that? ' "
00:08:25.53\00:08:27.77
But God's Ten Commandments...
to me it's God's...
00:08:27.97\00:08:30.61
the God that loves us.
00:08:30.81\00:08:32.17
Amen. He's there...
He's wanting to protect me.
00:08:32.37\00:08:34.51
And I think it's beautiful also
that God wants us to write His
00:08:34.71\00:08:38.01
law in our hearts. He doesn't
say: "Just write them out there
00:08:38.21\00:08:41.32
somewhere. " He wants
them to be inside of us
00:08:41.52\00:08:44.25
to be a part of
who we are as a being.
00:08:44.45\00:08:48.22
And God is looking
out for our own good.
00:08:48.42\00:08:50.79
It's not like: "Don't do that
Greg just 'cause I don't want
00:08:50.99\00:08:52.93
you to. " No... it's
because He says: "Greg,
00:08:53.13\00:08:55.46
I love you and here are the
ten principles that I want you
00:08:55.66\00:08:58.43
to follow. " So when I
think of the Ten Commandments
00:08:58.63\00:09:00.44
I think of a God that
loves me and cares for me.
00:09:00.64\00:09:03.07
And then me in response? I want
to be like: "God... my Father!
00:09:03.27\00:09:07.18
Yes, absolutely. I
want to do that because
00:09:07.38\00:09:09.54
I know that that will be the
best for me in my own life. "
00:09:09.74\00:09:12.98
So the law of God?
It's a law of love.
00:09:13.18\00:09:15.98
It is... and it's a law of
liberty. Yeah! The law of God
00:09:16.18\00:09:18.92
is such a gift to us. Amen! I
love what you said, Sweetheart,
00:09:19.15\00:09:22.66
because we do often
think of the 10 Commandments
00:09:22.86\00:09:24.69
as do's and don'ts. True.
We know the law was written
00:09:24.89\00:09:27.73
with the very finger of God.
00:09:27.93\00:09:30.37
And yet the New
Covenant we find in Hebrews 8:10
00:09:30.57\00:09:34.57
God says: "I will
write My law in their hearts
00:09:34.97\00:09:38.94
and in their minds. "
And to me what that says is
00:09:39.14\00:09:41.94
yes, it is eternal.
God's law is eternal
00:09:42.14\00:09:45.81
and it's engraven on
those tables of stone
00:09:46.01\00:09:48.45
but it also can be
written on my heart.
00:09:48.65\00:09:51.89
That means God has the grace
00:09:52.09\00:09:54.42
to implant His
Holy Spirit and His Word
00:09:54.62\00:09:58.69
and His law into my heart.
That means His 10 guidelines,
00:09:58.89\00:10:03.77
ten principles, are
actually ten promises. Right.
00:10:03.97\00:10:07.87
He says: "Jill,
I can work My love,
00:10:08.07\00:10:11.21
My law into your heart. " And
that... that gives me liberty.
00:10:11.41\00:10:16.41
I'm here with one of my
favorite groups in all the world
00:10:17.81\00:10:20.55
of young people. I don't
know anybody, any group who does
00:10:20.75\00:10:24.09
any more for the cause of
God than these young folks.
00:10:24.29\00:10:26.82
They are the church of tomorrow
00:10:27.02\00:10:28.52
and we ought to support these
folks, be behind them 100%.
00:10:28.72\00:10:32.23
Sr. Darla, you have been with
NAPS for how many years now?
00:10:32.73\00:10:36.06
Maybe like 19 years?
Nineteen years... unbelievable.
00:10:37.20\00:10:40.14
Well you look like one
of the college students.
00:10:40.34\00:10:41.94
How am I doing?
Nice. Nice... OK.
00:10:42.90\00:10:45.17
We're gettin' along so far.
00:10:45.57\00:10:47.78
And no... I do. I love
you; I appreciate what you do
00:10:48.18\00:10:52.08
every year and NAPS
group. And you always bring us
00:10:52.28\00:10:55.72
some great testimony.
You give us some music.
00:10:55.92\00:10:59.19
So we want you to update
us, and then I've got a little
00:10:59.39\00:11:01.92
surprise for you. It
was even a surprise to me.
00:11:02.12\00:11:03.96
It just came to me a while ago,
but you go ahead and talk first
00:11:04.16\00:11:06.63
and then we'll... OK.
Well, for those who do not know
00:11:06.83\00:11:10.80
NAPS is The National Assoc. for
the Prevention of Starvation.
00:11:11.00\00:11:15.50
It's a group that
started back in 1978
00:11:15.70\00:11:18.41
with some college students that
wanted to do something more.
00:11:18.61\00:11:22.24
It started with
feeding under a bridge,
00:11:22.64\00:11:24.31
but God has
grown it tremendously.
00:11:24.51\00:11:27.35
To date we have been to
23 states - 23 countries -
00:11:27.75\00:11:32.55
40 states - and over
20,000 have been baptized
00:11:32.75\00:11:36.73
into the SDA church!
Amen! Praise the Lord!
00:11:36.93\00:11:39.73
But God didn't end right
there. The amazing thing is
00:11:40.13\00:11:43.13
when you put God
first He will give you MORE
00:11:43.33\00:11:46.40
that He wants you
to do for His cause.
00:11:46.60\00:11:48.50
And in recent years,
NAPS started up its own school
00:11:48.90\00:11:53.44
going from kindergarten
all the way to 8th grade.
00:11:53.64\00:11:56.51
It was started by a
leader in the group.
00:11:56.71\00:11:59.58
She was only a junior in
college, elementary ed. major,
00:11:59.78\00:12:02.95
and she wanted
to make an impact.
00:12:03.15\00:12:05.09
Well, it's been
some time since then
00:12:05.29\00:12:07.89
and God has been blessing.
00:12:08.09\00:12:09.79
We just experienced
about 8 of those students
00:12:09.99\00:12:12.86
getting baptized. So this is not
just a school where they learn
00:12:13.06\00:12:17.00
English and math, but
it's a school where they learn
00:12:17.20\00:12:20.04
to serve Christ, and they're
able to come on our missions
00:12:20.24\00:12:22.44
as well. BUT one thing
that has impacted me about
00:12:22.64\00:12:26.27
the group is the fact that
they have their own mission.
00:12:26.47\00:12:29.88
Recently NAPS
started up a ministry
00:12:30.28\00:12:33.85
in Alabama, that's
where our headquarters are:
00:12:34.05\00:12:36.75
in Alabama... where we
are doing a feeding program.
00:12:36.95\00:12:40.46
Every single month
we would feed over 300.
00:12:40.66\00:12:44.59
And what happened is is
the leader had an emergency
00:12:44.79\00:12:48.43
and had to leave. Now
praise the Lord, we weren't
00:12:48.63\00:12:51.27
doing it on our own
because some of the students
00:12:51.47\00:12:54.40
from our school
decided to "take up the plow"
00:12:54.60\00:12:58.04
when she - the person -
could no longer lead it.
00:12:58.24\00:13:02.61
They called over 200
volunteers every night.
00:13:03.01\00:13:05.91
I'm going to let Dayinn
tell you a little bit more.
00:13:06.11\00:13:08.75
She is one of our school
students, and she is going to
00:13:08.95\00:13:11.89
tell you a little bit more
about how the foodbank runs.
00:13:12.09\00:13:14.72
Hello everybody.
My name is Dayinn
00:13:15.72\00:13:18.36
and I'm going to be telling
you as Miss Darla has told you.
00:13:18.56\00:13:23.26
So what we do first is
we would call the people
00:13:23.47\00:13:28.44
to let them know the
day before the foodbank.
00:13:28.64\00:13:31.71
So we let them know
when and where to go.
00:13:31.91\00:13:36.88
So our food director, Xavier,
00:13:37.08\00:13:41.48
would give us our duties to do.
00:13:41.68\00:13:44.79
Labeling and packaging.
00:13:46.55\00:13:49.82
Also with front line and
meeting people, greeting people,
00:13:50.33\00:13:55.96
and also registration.
00:13:56.16\00:13:57.80
So for the registration
00:13:58.30\00:14:00.64
we would go to each car and
we would get their information
00:14:00.84\00:14:04.34
and give them a ticket.
And once they come in the front
00:14:04.54\00:14:07.74
we'll give them their food.
00:14:07.94\00:14:09.28
But as we're
giving them their food
00:14:09.54\00:14:11.28
we'll greet them
and tell them about us
00:14:11.48\00:14:13.62
and give them hugs
and share them with love.
00:14:13.82\00:14:16.48
And overall we
fed over 200 people...
00:14:16.69\00:14:22.19
200 families every month and
it's been a blessing to do it.
00:14:22.39\00:14:27.36
Wow! Praise the Lord!
00:14:27.56\00:14:29.06
And the powerful thing is
where this school has started.
00:14:29.26\00:14:32.60
It has started in
the rural black belt.
00:14:32.80\00:14:35.34
There's a passage by
Ellen White that talks about
00:14:35.54\00:14:38.31
how she wept for
this exact area. It says:
00:14:38.51\00:14:42.81
When we read this quote we
knew we had to do something.
00:15:34.10\00:15:36.97
Right now I'm asking for you
guys to keep us in your prayers.
00:15:37.17\00:15:40.34
Praying for teachers
and medical professionals
00:15:40.54\00:15:43.61
as we continue this work.
00:15:43.81\00:15:45.77
Praise the Lord!
Now let me ask you:
00:15:45.97\00:15:48.28
usually you have
these college students here.
00:15:48.48\00:15:50.95
Now you all are not college
students, I hope... right?
00:15:51.15\00:15:53.28
Some of you are?
Nobody? Some of them. Some are.
00:15:53.48\00:15:56.89
Those not college yet
let me see your hands.
00:15:57.29\00:16:00.42
All right. Now you talk
about starting at a young age.
00:16:00.62\00:16:03.83
Look what they're doing,
and the work that they do
00:16:04.03\00:16:06.39
is absolutely phenomenal.
00:16:06.59\00:16:08.33
I was hoping that some of
you weren't college students
00:16:08.53\00:16:10.83
'cause I thought I aged over-
night 'cause kids look younger
00:16:11.03\00:16:13.60
to me all the time. So
the other good news was
00:16:13.80\00:16:16.67
I thought I was
taller than I used to be.
00:16:16.87\00:16:18.74
And... but I found
out that's not so either.
00:16:19.14\00:16:21.58
But listen, 3ABN has supported
you all for a long time.
00:16:21.78\00:16:24.68
They come up here when we
ask them no matter what it is.
00:16:25.18\00:16:28.22
They don't ask for anything.
00:16:28.42\00:16:29.98
We say: "Can you come up
and teach our young folks
00:16:30.19\00:16:32.52
and be here at Camp
Meeting? " They come.
00:16:32.72\00:16:34.29
They do it on
their own; they volunteer
00:16:34.49\00:16:36.12
with all of the work
that they have doing.
00:16:36.32\00:16:37.96
So I felt impressed tonight
that what we want to do for you
00:16:38.36\00:16:41.63
and I want to do it
now... it's on a contingency
00:16:42.03\00:16:44.60
that the folks here
support us or folks at home
00:16:44.80\00:16:49.00
that you call in... 3ABN
would like to donate to you all
00:16:49.20\00:16:52.61
for your school for
wherever you want it to be
00:16:52.81\00:16:55.14
$10,000... all right? Amen!
00:16:55.34\00:16:58.61
Now all of you clapping:
I'm looking at you clapping.
00:16:58.81\00:17:02.98
I'm going to go back
and re-run the video.
00:17:03.18\00:17:04.79
That means you're going to give.
00:17:04.99\00:17:06.32
So we have you. It's like
freeze frame and we got you
00:17:06.72\00:17:10.26
and some of you who didn't clap.
00:17:10.66\00:17:12.16
So... Now $10,000.
This is a matching fund.
00:17:12.36\00:17:15.30
So we want you all here
to walk up tonight, tomorrow,
00:17:15.50\00:17:19.50
after the program,
all day... look up Darla.
00:17:19.70\00:17:23.14
Say: "Here, this is for NAPS.
This is towards the matching
00:17:23.34\00:17:25.77
fund of $10,000. " How
many will give something?
00:17:25.97\00:17:28.54
Now don't be bashful. OK.
00:17:28.74\00:17:30.18
Should be more hands
than that. Let's keep going.
00:17:30.38\00:17:32.58
All right. I don't want
to be like some of these...
00:17:32.98\00:17:34.82
I started to say
Pentecostal preachers...
00:17:35.02\00:17:36.52
that take up 10 offerings
during the service, but tonight
00:17:36.72\00:17:40.49
we're going to let the people
know that we believe in what
00:17:40.89\00:17:43.89
you're doing. God is
good all the time, right?
00:17:44.09\00:17:47.13
And we want to support you.
We'll continue to support what
00:17:47.33\00:17:50.63
you're doing to help
people come to know Jesus Christ
00:17:50.83\00:17:54.14
and to be baptized
into His remnant church.
00:17:54.34\00:17:56.47
This is an amazing organization.
00:17:56.67\00:17:58.34
And so I want each
of you to pray about it.
00:17:58.54\00:18:00.91
Say: "Lord, what
would You have me to do? "
00:18:01.31\00:18:03.04
And while we're joking a
little bit about this... but
00:18:03.24\00:18:05.81
I'm serious in the fact
that each of us can do something
00:18:06.01\00:18:08.42
even if you gave $20 or
$50 or $100. She'll keep track.
00:18:08.62\00:18:13.66
Those of you watching: if
you want to call in and just
00:18:13.86\00:18:15.59
say: "Hey, I'll
send some money. "
00:18:15.79\00:18:17.66
If you don't get an answer
tonight call in Monday, Tuesday,
00:18:17.99\00:18:20.96
whenever... let us
know. And whatever comes in
00:18:21.16\00:18:23.50
if it comes over that $10,000
you get every penny of it;
00:18:23.70\00:18:25.83
We don't keep any of it. Amen!
00:18:26.03\00:18:27.57
But we just want you to
know that we love you all.
00:18:27.77\00:18:29.37
We appreciate you. Thank
you for what you're doing
00:18:29.57\00:18:31.87
and being willing to stand up
for Jesus in the closing moments
00:18:32.07\00:18:35.38
of earth's history.
Thank you all of you.
00:18:35.58\00:18:39.21
The song we're going to
sing is actually a reminder
00:18:39.71\00:18:42.75
just that we
need the Holy Spirit.
00:18:42.95\00:18:45.89
We need the Holy
Spirit more than anything.
00:18:46.49\00:18:48.82
It's coming from Malawi,
Africa. It says the Holy Spirit
00:18:49.02\00:18:52.59
must come down, and our
countries, our children,
00:18:52.79\00:18:56.13
our families must be saved.
00:18:56.33\00:18:58.33
The Holy Spirit
00:19:57.89\00:20:01.63
must come down,
00:20:01.83\00:20:04.43
our families must be saved.
00:20:04.83\00:20:10.74
The Holy Spirit
00:20:11.34\00:20:15.34
must come down,
00:20:15.54\00:20:17.91
our families must be saved.
00:20:18.11\00:20:23.49
Our families...
Our families must
00:20:23.69\00:20:28.36
be saved,
00:20:28.56\00:20:31.69
our families must be saved!
00:20:31.99\00:20:37.93
The Holy Spirit
00:20:38.33\00:20:42.20
must come down,
00:20:42.40\00:20:44.91
our families must be saved.
00:20:45.11\00:20:50.88
The Holy Spirit
00:20:51.28\00:20:55.32
must come down,
00:20:55.52\00:20:57.92
our children must be saved.
00:20:58.12\00:21:04.06
The Holy Spirit
00:21:04.46\00:21:08.60
must come down,
00:21:08.80\00:21:11.17
our children must be saved.
00:21:11.47\00:21:16.50
Our children...
Our children must
00:21:16.71\00:21:21.44
be saved,
00:21:21.64\00:21:24.58
our children must be saved.
00:21:24.88\00:21:30.85
The Holy Spirit
00:21:31.25\00:21:34.96
must come down,
00:21:35.16\00:21:37.63
our children must be saved.
00:21:37.83\00:21:43.77
Amen! Thank you all so much.
00:21:44.60\00:21:47.00
All right! God bless you all.
00:21:47.20\00:21:49.94
Praise the Lord! Great
great group of young people
00:21:50.34\00:21:53.54
who dedicate... They
travel around the world
00:21:53.74\00:21:55.74
and it's by faith.
They don't have the money;
00:21:56.14\00:21:58.05
they're not supported by
the church or the university.
00:21:58.25\00:22:02.18
They raise their
money. They've got people who
00:22:02.38\00:22:05.19
support around the
world, and a lot of it has been
00:22:05.39\00:22:07.26
because of you,
the viewers of 3ABN
00:22:07.46\00:22:10.09
who've seen where they're
going and what their needs are.
00:22:10.29\00:22:12.83
So we're hoping that you
will make it part of your plan
00:22:13.03\00:22:16.13
in your giving to
support the NAPS group
00:22:16.33\00:22:18.73
so they can continue to lead
souls to the Lord Jesus Christ.
00:22:18.93\00:22:22.24
It's my privilege
right now to introduce
00:22:22.77\00:22:25.97
a wonderful couple.
They're some of the closest
00:22:26.88\00:22:29.71
friends that Yvonne
and I have on this earth.
00:22:29.91\00:22:31.91
And it's Reggie
and Ladye Love Smith.
00:22:32.31\00:22:34.62
And so I'm going to ask Reggie
and Ladye if they're ready...
00:22:35.02\00:22:37.59
I may be jumping the gun
on them a little bit here.
00:22:37.79\00:22:39.82
I think they were
going to do a little video.
00:22:40.22\00:22:41.79
If they're not, we'll do
the video and then they can
00:22:41.99\00:22:43.49
come out. But they
are incredible people.
00:22:43.69\00:22:46.76
We've been knowing each
other for a lot of years
00:22:46.96\00:22:48.76
and they literally
travel around the world.
00:22:49.16\00:22:51.33
But it's not just what
they do in their singing.
00:22:51.73\00:22:54.54
It's when you meet
them and get to know them
00:22:54.94\00:22:58.41
and you see their hearts
- their heart for people.
00:22:58.61\00:23:01.61
We've been at restaurants...
One night we were at
00:23:01.81\00:23:04.15
a restaurant eating, and
they were shutting all the doors
00:23:04.31\00:23:07.55
and closing the restaurant, and
we didn't know where Ladye was.
00:23:07.75\00:23:11.45
So it was like:
"Where's Ladye Love? "
00:23:11.85\00:23:13.59
And Reggie's looking
around. She's in the kitchen
00:23:13.79\00:23:16.52
'cause she noticed that one
of the cooks seemed to be sad
00:23:16.73\00:23:21.10
about something so she
was witnessing to her...
00:23:21.30\00:23:23.26
talking to her about Jesus.
00:23:23.47\00:23:24.93
We see that everywhere
we go. They look up people
00:23:25.13\00:23:28.07
in the community
and witness to them.
00:23:28.27\00:23:31.17
So we'd like to get
Reggie and Ladye to come on out.
00:23:31.37\00:23:34.54
They're going to do some
music and then after that
00:23:34.74\00:23:37.18
we have Gene McDonald.
00:23:37.38\00:23:40.18
And Gene, of
course, sang here last night
00:23:40.38\00:23:42.32
and Gene also
travels around the world.
00:23:42.52\00:23:44.49
Gene sings and
he's a bus driver.
00:23:44.69\00:23:49.42
So he drives the bus. He does
a lot for you all, doesn't he?
00:23:49.62\00:23:52.39
He drives all night,
gets a little bit of sleep,
00:23:52.59\00:23:57.07
and sings again in concert...
and then he sings again.
00:23:57.27\00:24:00.47
So you guys sing...
We're glad you're here!
00:24:00.67\00:24:02.04
Let's make them welcome...
give them a 3ABN welcome here.
00:24:02.24\00:24:04.81
Come on up to your spot.
00:24:05.01\00:24:08.24
It's good to be
back. Love you guys.
00:24:09.84\00:24:12.41
You're confident in yourself. I
see that pink jacket on tonight.
00:24:12.61\00:24:15.68
I picked that out.
Ladye Love picked it out.
00:24:16.08\00:24:18.75
Yeah, but you
wore it. That's right.
00:24:18.95\00:24:21.06
You were confident in her.
Right. You want to borrow it,
00:24:21.26\00:24:23.22
Danny? No! OK...
but you look good in it.
00:24:23.43\00:24:25.99
You do it well. No,
we're so glad you guys are here
00:24:26.19\00:24:28.53
and look forward to
being blessed by your music
00:24:28.73\00:24:31.43
and by your
testimony. Thank you.
00:24:31.63\00:24:33.74
How's everybody doing?
00:24:35.50\00:24:37.04
God is good. All
the time God is good.
00:24:37.94\00:24:43.24
Suspended above
00:24:58.36\00:25:02.56
the world that He made
00:25:02.96\00:25:06.13
and below His home
00:25:06.33\00:25:09.60
in the sky
00:25:09.80\00:25:14.44
God in flesh
00:25:14.84\00:25:16.78
came down to man
00:25:17.81\00:25:21.18
and man raised Him up
00:25:21.88\00:25:25.82
to die.
00:25:26.02\00:25:28.99
And there on a tree
00:25:29.82\00:25:33.50
the destiny
00:25:33.70\00:25:36.87
of every fallen man
00:25:37.07\00:25:43.04
was held by the nails
00:25:44.24\00:25:47.31
driven through
00:25:48.18\00:25:50.85
His sinless feet
00:25:51.61\00:25:55.68
and hands.
00:25:55.88\00:25:59.15
Somewhere between
00:25:59.55\00:26:02.96
heaven and earth
00:26:03.16\00:26:06.06
stood a symbol of grace
00:26:06.46\00:26:09.46
not based on our worth.
00:26:09.66\00:26:13.67
It was there He endured
00:26:13.97\00:26:17.54
what we deserve
00:26:17.74\00:26:22.31
for a cross held
the hope of the world
00:26:22.51\00:26:27.85
somewhere between
00:26:28.25\00:26:30.75
heaven and earth.
00:26:30.95\00:26:36.26
Somewhere between
00:26:36.66\00:26:39.03
time and space...
00:26:39.23\00:26:44.10
somewhere between judgment
00:26:44.30\00:26:47.54
and grace.
00:26:47.74\00:26:50.24
He became
00:26:50.44\00:26:52.74
the sin He'd never known
00:26:52.94\00:26:58.28
and as the sky turned black
00:26:58.48\00:27:01.82
His Father turned His back
00:27:03.08\00:27:05.95
and for that moment
00:27:06.15\00:27:08.29
He was left alone...
00:27:08.59\00:27:13.29
He was left alone.
00:27:13.50\00:27:18.73
Somewhere between
00:27:18.93\00:27:21.97
heaven and earth
00:27:22.37\00:27:25.37
stood a symbol of grace
00:27:25.57\00:27:28.71
not based on our worth.
00:27:28.91\00:27:32.88
It was there He endured
00:27:33.28\00:27:36.65
what we deserve
00:27:36.85\00:27:41.52
for a cross held
the hope of the world
00:27:41.72\00:27:46.66
somewhere between
00:27:47.06\00:27:49.96
heaven and earth.
00:27:50.17\00:27:56.00
Somewhere
between heaven and earth
00:27:56.20\00:27:59.07
stood a symbol of grace
00:27:59.37\00:28:02.34
not based on our worth.
00:28:02.54\00:28:06.61
It was there He endured
00:28:06.82\00:28:10.45
what we deserve
00:28:10.65\00:28:15.22
for a cross held
the hope of the world...
00:28:15.42\00:28:21.33
yes, the cross held the hope
00:28:21.53\00:28:25.20
of the world... yes,
00:28:25.43\00:28:29.57
the cross held the hope
00:28:29.77\00:28:32.14
of the world
00:28:32.34\00:28:37.88
somewhere - somewhere
00:28:38.08\00:28:40.62
between
00:28:40.82\00:28:42.52
heaven
00:28:42.72\00:28:48.32
and earth.
00:28:48.89\00:28:54.46
Suspended above
00:28:55.23\00:28:56.70
the world that He made
00:28:57.60\00:29:01.60
and below His home
00:29:02.00\00:29:05.57
in the sky...
00:29:05.97\00:29:11.88
Amen!
00:29:19.62\00:29:21.52
Amen! Man, do you
not love the Lord?
00:29:24.39\00:29:28.83
Amen! Guess what?
He loves you more.
00:29:29.03\00:29:32.40
Each and every one
of us with our warts.
00:29:33.37\00:29:35.94
Some of us have our
hair... some of us don't.
00:29:36.34\00:29:39.57
Some of us have pink coats...
00:29:39.77\00:29:42.48
Some of us have pink
coats and you know what? Hey,
00:29:43.58\00:29:46.98
you guys know Tim Parton, right?
00:29:47.18\00:29:48.68
One of the greatest
piano players on the planet.
00:29:50.29\00:29:53.22
And we want to do a couple
of hymns with Tim. Is that cool?
00:29:53.42\00:29:56.52
So... But God is so good
00:29:56.73\00:29:58.66
and He loves you so much.
00:29:59.73\00:30:01.46
And sometimes life is hard
00:30:02.23\00:30:05.03
and life gets crazy.
00:30:06.33\00:30:07.90
But He says: "Come to Me
and I will give you rest. "
00:30:08.47\00:30:11.87
I don't know if you
need it, but I need rest.
00:30:12.37\00:30:14.81
And I need to go to Him
and find that quiet place.
00:30:15.74\00:30:19.48
And He says to me and He
will say to you every time:
00:30:20.42\00:30:25.09
Softly and tenderly
00:30:28.42\00:30:32.16
Jesus is calling...
00:30:33.26\00:30:37.20
calling for you
00:30:38.07\00:30:42.94
and for me.
00:30:43.34\00:30:46.17
And see, on the portals
00:30:47.98\00:30:52.81
He's waiting and watching...
00:30:53.52\00:30:58.62
calling "Oh, sinner
00:31:00.02\00:31:04.73
come home. "
00:31:05.36\00:31:09.53
"Come home,
00:31:10.93\00:31:15.27
come home...
00:31:15.67\00:31:21.61
ye who are weary
00:31:21.81\00:31:26.48
come home. "
00:31:27.18\00:31:33.09
Earnestly,
00:31:35.56\00:31:37.96
tenderly
00:31:38.59\00:31:40.63
Jesus is calling...
00:31:41.43\00:31:46.17
calling: "Oh, sinner... "
00:31:47.10\00:31:52.21
calling: "Oh, sinner... "
00:31:53.58\00:31:59.55
calling: "Oh, sinner
00:32:01.02\00:32:06.69
come
00:32:07.79\00:32:12.29
home. "
00:32:12.86\00:32:18.63
'Tis so sweet
00:32:36.82\00:32:39.45
to trust in Jesus.
00:32:40.86\00:32:43.89
Just to take Him
00:32:45.29\00:32:48.30
at His word.
00:32:48.50\00:32:52.03
Just to rest
00:32:52.83\00:32:55.94
upon His promise...
00:32:56.50\00:33:00.58
just to know
00:33:01.54\00:33:04.55
"thus saith the Lord. "
00:33:04.95\00:33:10.45
And I'm so glad
00:33:11.25\00:33:14.52
I learned to trust Him:
00:33:14.92\00:33:18.73
precious Jesus,
00:33:19.13\00:33:22.63
Savior, Friend.
00:33:22.83\00:33:26.60
And to know
00:33:27.00\00:33:30.54
that He is with me...
00:33:30.74\00:33:35.08
will be with me
00:33:35.94\00:33:39.91
till the end. Sing it together:
00:33:40.42\00:33:44.52
Jesus, Jesus,
00:33:45.35\00:33:49.26
how I trust Him!
00:33:49.46\00:33:53.19
How I've proved Him
00:33:53.40\00:33:57.23
o'er and o'er.
00:33:57.43\00:34:00.50
Jesus, Jesus,
00:34:01.40\00:34:04.94
precious Jesus!
00:34:05.14\00:34:08.94
Oh, for grace
00:34:09.34\00:34:12.68
to trust Him more.
00:34:13.08\00:34:19.05
Jesus, Jesus,
00:34:21.26\00:34:26.49
oh, Jesus...
00:34:27.23\00:34:31.93
there's just something
00:34:32.87\00:34:35.87
about
00:34:36.60\00:34:39.14
that name!
00:34:39.61\00:34:44.71
Master,
00:34:46.31\00:34:48.72
oh, Savior,
00:34:48.92\00:34:51.99
Jesus...
00:34:52.39\00:34:57.79
like the fragrance
00:34:58.19\00:35:01.40
after
00:35:01.80\00:35:04.47
the rain.
00:35:04.87\00:35:10.34
Jesus,
00:35:11.11\00:35:13.74
Jesus,
00:35:14.14\00:35:16.75
oh Jesus...
00:35:16.95\00:35:22.15
let all heaven
00:35:22.55\00:35:25.59
and earth
00:35:25.89\00:35:27.96
proclaim!
00:35:28.26\00:35:33.86
Kings and kingdoms
00:35:34.26\00:35:39.40
will all pass away
00:35:40.10\00:35:46.11
but there' something
00:35:46.68\00:35:51.01
about
00:35:51.21\00:35:54.92
that
00:35:55.58\00:35:57.75
name!
00:35:58.15\00:36:04.13
Amen! Thank you,
Tim. Thank you so much.
00:36:13.80\00:36:17.07
I will serve Thee.
00:36:20.68\00:36:22.31
He's done so
much for each of us.
00:36:25.05\00:36:27.32
I will serve Thee
00:36:30.65\00:36:33.02
because I love Thee.
00:36:35.19\00:36:38.69
You have
00:36:40.23\00:36:42.26
given life
00:36:42.83\00:36:46.67
to me.
00:36:48.14\00:36:50.21
I was nothing
00:36:52.84\00:36:56.51
before You found me.
00:36:57.85\00:37:02.45
You have given life
00:37:05.12\00:37:09.86
to me.
00:37:11.19\00:37:13.06
Heartaches,
00:37:16.87\00:37:20.40
broken pieces,
00:37:22.07\00:37:26.37
ruined lives
00:37:28.04\00:37:31.38
are why
00:37:31.58\00:37:33.42
you died on
00:37:34.18\00:37:37.32
Calvary.
00:37:37.52\00:37:40.32
Your touch
00:37:40.72\00:37:43.69
is what I longed for!
00:37:45.36\00:37:50.53
You have given life
00:37:52.00\00:37:56.47
to me.
00:37:58.37\00:38:01.14
I will serve Thee
00:38:03.81\00:38:08.12
because
00:38:08.85\00:38:10.32
I love Thee.
00:38:10.92\00:38:15.99
You have given life
00:38:16.19\00:38:21.96
to me.
00:38:22.46\00:38:27.64
I was nothing
00:38:28.64\00:38:33.81
before You found me...
00:38:34.74\00:38:40.52
You have
00:38:40.92\00:38:43.08
given life
00:38:43.28\00:38:48.32
to
00:38:48.52\00:38:50.53
me.
00:38:50.73\00:38:56.10
Heartaches,
00:38:56.97\00:39:01.27
broken pieces,
00:39:01.90\00:39:07.84
ruined lives
00:39:08.04\00:39:12.51
are why You died
00:39:12.71\00:39:17.42
on Calvary!
00:39:17.62\00:39:22.12
Your touch
00:39:22.32\00:39:25.73
was what
00:39:25.93\00:39:28.10
I longed for...
00:39:28.30\00:39:33.23
You have given life
00:39:34.10\00:39:40.04
to me...
00:39:40.61\00:39:45.61
You have
00:39:46.45\00:39:48.52
given life
00:39:48.92\00:39:54.76
to me!
00:39:57.53\00:40:03.50
I'm going to tell Danny we're
going to get matching suits
00:40:17.65\00:40:19.41
and a bus and hit the road.
00:40:19.61\00:40:21.05
And he's going to
wear a pink jacket!
00:40:24.25\00:40:25.59
We just knew He was dead...
00:40:38.67\00:40:41.44
"It is finished! " He said.
00:40:42.37\00:40:45.01
And we watched as His life
00:40:45.41\00:40:48.31
ebbed away.
00:40:49.11\00:40:52.61
Then we all stood around
00:40:52.81\00:40:56.42
till the guards took Him down.
00:40:57.12\00:40:59.89
Joseph begged for His body
00:41:00.09\00:41:04.29
that day.
00:41:04.69\00:41:08.06
It was late afternoon
00:41:08.26\00:41:11.07
when we got to the tomb.
00:41:12.00\00:41:15.07
Wrapped His body
00:41:15.27\00:41:16.67
and sealed up the grave.
00:41:17.07\00:41:22.51
So I know how you feel...
00:41:22.71\00:41:26.68
His death was so real.
00:41:27.08\00:41:30.32
But please listen
00:41:30.72\00:41:32.62
and hear what I say:
00:41:32.82\00:41:37.86
"I've just
00:41:38.69\00:41:42.03
seen Jesus!
00:41:42.23\00:41:47.30
I tell you
00:41:47.50\00:41:49.77
He's alive!
00:41:49.97\00:41:53.84
I've just seen Jesus...
00:41:54.24\00:41:59.51
our precious
00:41:59.71\00:42:02.45
Lord's alive! "
00:42:02.65\00:42:07.49
And I knew - yes I knew -
00:42:07.89\00:42:12.56
He really
00:42:12.76\00:42:14.23
saw me, too!
00:42:14.43\00:42:20.37
As if till now
00:42:21.50\00:42:25.01
I never
00:42:25.87\00:42:29.38
lived.
00:42:29.58\00:42:33.28
All that I've done
00:42:33.48\00:42:36.38
before
00:42:36.79\00:42:38.99
won't matter
00:42:39.19\00:42:42.12
any more...
00:42:42.32\00:42:46.76
I've just seen Jesus
00:42:46.96\00:42:52.93
and I'll never be
00:42:53.30\00:42:58.57
the same
00:42:58.77\00:43:00.18
again!
00:43:00.84\00:43:06.75
It was His voice
she first heard...
00:43:13.62\00:43:17.33
those kind, gentle words...
00:43:17.73\00:43:20.90
asking what was her reason
00:43:21.10\00:43:24.20
for those tears.
00:43:24.40\00:43:28.00
And I sobbed in despair
00:43:28.20\00:43:31.14
"My Lord is not there! "
00:43:31.34\00:43:34.54
He said: "Child, it is I...
00:43:34.74\00:43:37.81
I am here! "
00:43:38.01\00:43:42.95
I've just seen
00:43:43.49\00:43:48.36
Jesus!
00:43:48.76\00:43:53.33
I tell you: "He's alive! "
00:43:53.73\00:43:59.70
I've just seen Jesus...
00:44:00.67\00:44:05.81
our precious
00:44:06.21\00:44:08.74
Lord's alive!
00:44:08.94\00:44:13.92
And I knew - yes, I knew -
00:44:14.12\00:44:19.19
He really saw me, too.
00:44:19.39\00:44:23.99
He really saw me, too!
00:44:24.19\00:44:27.80
As if till now
00:44:28.00\00:44:31.97
I never lived.
00:44:32.67\00:44:38.61
All that I've done before
00:44:39.74\00:44:45.41
won't matter
00:44:45.61\00:44:48.25
any more...
00:44:48.45\00:44:52.85
I've just seen
00:44:53.25\00:44:55.62
Jesus...
00:44:56.02\00:44:59.69
Well, I've just seen
00:44:59.89\00:45:02.46
Jesus...
00:45:02.66\00:45:06.13
Well, I've just seen Jesus
00:45:06.33\00:45:10.61
and all I've ever
00:45:10.97\00:45:14.64
done before
00:45:15.04\00:45:18.85
won't matter
00:45:19.05\00:45:21.85
any more...
00:45:22.05\00:45:26.09
I've just seen
00:45:26.29\00:45:28.12
Jesus and I'll never
00:45:28.32\00:45:33.83
be the same
00:45:34.03\00:45:35.96
again!
00:45:36.36\00:45:41.50
I've just seen
00:45:42.07\00:45:44.67
JESUS!
00:45:45.47\00:45:51.41
Amen! Whoo!
00:45:53.52\00:45:55.32
When I think of
God's Ten Commandments
00:46:00.69\00:46:03.22
I think of God's character.
00:46:03.43\00:46:05.69
Who He is. And He's...
The Ten Commandments is...
00:46:05.89\00:46:09.70
it's God, isn't it honey?
00:46:09.90\00:46:11.33
That's right. It's a
reflection of who He is. Yeah.
00:46:11.53\00:46:13.27
It, in fact, is the
embodiment of who God is.
00:46:13.47\00:46:16.60
Ten principles - ten laws -
that when we live in harmony
00:46:16.81\00:46:20.84
with those laws
we become like Him
00:46:21.04\00:46:23.41
not only
horizontically but vertically.
00:46:23.61\00:46:25.85
Yes. When I think
of the Ten Commandments
00:46:26.05\00:46:27.48
I think of
guardrails. Hmm... that's true.
00:46:27.68\00:46:29.98
I like to drive and you know
we drive all over the world.
00:46:30.19\00:46:32.82
Yes. It keeps us in
line with our destiny.
00:46:33.02\00:46:35.99
And anyone who fights against
the guardrails, the stop signs,
00:46:36.19\00:46:40.10
the yield signs,
affect their destiny. Yes.
00:46:40.30\00:46:43.50
I also think of God's
commandments as safety. Hmm.
00:46:43.70\00:46:47.70
It is our safety net.
That's right... it is!
00:46:47.90\00:46:49.84
It keeps us in an
environment... You know
00:46:50.04\00:46:52.67
we're reading through
the Bible together. Yes.
00:46:52.87\00:46:55.01
Beautiful. And whenever
we think about the kings
00:46:55.21\00:46:57.58
what do we hear? That
they lived their lives
00:46:57.78\00:46:59.41
and what did they
have all around them?
00:46:59.61\00:47:01.58
They have high
places... they have idols.
00:47:01.78\00:47:04.35
Idol worship everywhere.
For those who didn't follow
00:47:04.55\00:47:06.69
the commandments. For
those who didn't, yes.
00:47:06.89\00:47:08.26
But when they did
follow the commandments of God
00:47:08.46\00:47:09.89
they had peace all
of their days. Oh yes!
00:47:10.09\00:47:12.93
That's right. That's
right... yes they did.
00:47:13.13\00:47:15.63
And that's what happens
when you follow God's law:
00:47:16.03\00:47:18.13
the peace of God
is in your heart.
00:47:18.33\00:47:19.93
That's right. And then
it also shapes your life.
00:47:20.14\00:47:22.50
Yes. So when you
follow the commandments of God
00:47:22.70\00:47:25.27
those ten principles:
four in our relationship to God
00:47:25.47\00:47:28.61
and the six horizontally
in our relationships
00:47:28.81\00:47:31.25
to one another. That's
right. You'll find peace between
00:47:31.45\00:47:33.78
you and God, peace
between your spouse - Amen!
00:47:33.98\00:47:38.39
wife to husband,
husband to wife. Yes, yes.
00:47:38.59\00:47:40.39
You'll find peace in your
community of worship. So true.
00:47:40.59\00:47:43.39
You'll find peace
in your neighborhood.
00:47:43.59\00:47:45.76
And then the Prince of Peace
will inhabit your life. Jesus!
00:47:45.96\00:47:49.40
So we encourage you:
fall in love with the God
00:47:49.80\00:47:52.43
of the law of love and liberty
and you'll find that peace.
00:47:52.63\00:47:56.24
I don't know
00:48:07.95\00:48:11.59
about tomorrow...
00:48:11.99\00:48:16.42
I just live
00:48:16.83\00:48:20.53
from day to day.
00:48:20.73\00:48:24.97
I don't borrow
00:48:25.43\00:48:30.04
from its sunshine
00:48:30.24\00:48:33.48
for its skies
00:48:33.98\00:48:38.21
may turn to gray.
00:48:38.41\00:48:41.78
I don't worry
00:48:42.52\00:48:47.36
o'er the future
00:48:47.56\00:48:50.93
for I know
00:48:51.33\00:48:55.36
what Jesus said.
00:48:55.56\00:48:58.83
And today
00:49:00.00\00:49:03.81
I'll walk beside Him
00:49:04.01\00:49:08.08
for He knows
00:49:08.74\00:49:12.51
what lies ahead.
00:49:12.71\00:49:16.75
Many things
00:49:17.52\00:49:21.52
about tomorrow
00:49:21.72\00:49:25.76
I don't seem
00:49:26.29\00:49:29.90
to understand.
00:49:30.30\00:49:34.77
But I know
00:49:34.97\00:49:38.77
who holds tomorrow
00:49:38.97\00:49:42.84
and I know
00:49:43.45\00:49:47.32
who holds my hand.
00:49:47.52\00:49:51.85
I don't know
00:49:52.25\00:49:55.69
about tomorrow...
00:49:55.89\00:50:00.30
it may bring
00:50:00.70\00:50:04.47
me poverty.
00:50:04.67\00:50:08.57
But the One
00:50:09.14\00:50:13.14
who feeds the sparrow
00:50:13.34\00:50:17.11
is the One
00:50:17.91\00:50:21.92
who stands by me.
00:50:22.12\00:50:25.99
And the path
00:50:26.62\00:50:30.63
that is my portion
00:50:30.83\00:50:34.86
may be through
00:50:35.26\00:50:39.13
the flame or flood
00:50:39.33\00:50:43.10
and His presence
00:50:43.87\00:50:48.48
goes before me
00:50:48.68\00:50:52.11
and I'm covered
00:50:52.51\00:50:57.22
with His blood!
00:50:57.42\00:51:01.12
Many things
00:51:01.69\00:51:05.46
about tomorrow
00:51:05.66\00:51:09.50
I don't seem
00:51:10.00\00:51:13.87
to understand.
00:51:14.07\00:51:18.67
But I know
00:51:18.87\00:51:22.68
who holds tomorrow
00:51:22.88\00:51:26.78
and I know
00:51:27.52\00:51:31.25
who holds my hand...
00:51:31.45\00:51:35.86
And I know
00:51:36.32\00:51:39.89
who holds my hand.
00:51:40.10\00:51:46.03
Today I went back
00:52:06.79\00:52:09.76
to the place
00:52:10.56\00:52:12.19
where I used to go.
00:52:12.73\00:52:18.03
Today I saw
00:52:18.63\00:52:22.10
that same old crowd
00:52:22.30\00:52:25.04
I knew before.
00:52:25.24\00:52:29.78
When they asked me
00:52:30.91\00:52:34.08
what had happened
00:52:34.48\00:52:36.28
I tried to tell them:
00:52:36.48\00:52:42.22
"Thanks to Calvary
00:52:42.82\00:52:46.13
I don't come here
00:52:46.33\00:52:49.76
any more. "
00:52:49.96\00:52:54.27
Thanks to Calvary
00:52:54.77\00:52:58.17
I am not the man
00:52:58.37\00:53:01.78
that I used to be.
00:53:01.98\00:53:06.25
Thanks to Calvary
00:53:06.75\00:53:10.15
things are different
00:53:10.35\00:53:12.52
than before.
00:53:12.92\00:53:18.23
While the tears
00:53:19.16\00:53:21.33
ran down my face
00:53:21.73\00:53:24.27
I tried to tell them:
00:53:24.47\00:53:30.17
"Thanks to Calvary
00:53:30.71\00:53:34.18
I don't come here
00:53:34.34\00:53:38.01
any more. "
00:53:38.21\00:53:41.72
Then we went back
00:53:43.28\00:53:45.25
to the house
00:53:46.32\00:53:48.06
where we used to live.
00:53:48.62\00:53:54.16
My little boy
00:53:54.56\00:53:57.83
he ran and hid
00:53:58.23\00:54:00.97
behind the door.
00:54:01.17\00:54:06.44
And I said: "Son,
00:54:08.74\00:54:10.71
please don't be afraid...
00:54:11.48\00:54:13.18
you've got a
brand new daddy now.
00:54:14.32\00:54:16.79
Thanks to Calvary
00:54:18.82\00:54:22.19
we don't live here
00:54:22.39\00:54:25.69
any more. "
00:54:26.09\00:54:30.27
Thanks to Calvary
00:54:30.97\00:54:34.17
I am not the dad
00:54:34.37\00:54:37.81
that I used to be.
00:54:38.01\00:54:41.88
Thanks to Calvary
00:54:42.48\00:54:46.11
things are different
00:54:46.31\00:54:48.62
than before.
00:54:49.02\00:54:54.29
While the tears
00:54:55.06\00:54:57.46
ran down my face
00:54:57.96\00:55:00.36
I tried to tell them:
00:55:00.66\00:55:06.63
"Thanks to Calvary
00:55:07.17\00:55:12.14
we don't live here
00:55:12.54\00:55:17.21
any more. "
00:55:17.61\00:55:23.52
Amen! Wow! Amen!
00:55:28.19\00:55:33.43
Thank you, Brother
Gene. That's wonderful!
00:55:33.73\00:55:36.00
Stay... we've got just a
minute so I'm lonely out here
00:55:36.20\00:55:38.23
by myself so you
come on out here with me.
00:55:38.43\00:55:40.34
And you've got a great testi-
mony. We only have a minute
00:55:40.74\00:55:43.81
and something, but you
had an accident some years ago
00:55:44.01\00:55:46.37
and you fell how many feet?
00:55:46.57\00:55:47.91
Twenty-nine feet
into an empty grain barge.
00:55:48.08\00:55:50.05
An empty grain
barge... twenty-nine feet.
00:55:50.25\00:55:52.68
Yes, sir. What
was in the bottom?
00:55:52.88\00:55:54.45
Nothing? Steel. Steel?
And you lived through it.
00:55:54.65\00:55:57.62
Quarter inch cut
off the left ear.
00:55:58.02\00:55:59.75
And that's it? Walked out of it.
00:55:59.95\00:56:02.36
That is amazing!
Twenty-nine feet.
00:56:02.56\00:56:04.33
These ceilings are about
twenty, something like that.
00:56:04.53\00:56:07.16
So you fell in the steel.
00:56:07.36\00:56:08.80
God had a plan for your
life, didn't He? Yes, sir...
00:56:09.00\00:56:11.80
yes, sir. Some time
ago... You have a son
00:56:12.00\00:56:16.10
and then you adopted
another one. Tell us about that.
00:56:16.30\00:56:18.77
A year ago yesterday
was his first birthday.
00:56:19.17\00:56:22.54
He's 17 years old, but his
first birthday in my house.
00:56:22.74\00:56:25.61
And so... All
right... isn't that great?
00:56:25.81\00:56:28.62
So that's amazing.
00:56:29.02\00:56:30.49
We love you. We
love Gene and his family.
00:56:30.69\00:56:33.22
Wondeful wonderful people.
00:56:33.42\00:56:34.76
And I don't know about
you. I'd like to have him back
00:56:35.12\00:56:37.19
quite often. Would
you? You want him back?
00:56:37.39\00:56:39.29
OK... OK you see here.
00:56:39.69\00:56:41.96
But Reggie and Ladye Love...
You know, you get the behind
00:56:42.16\00:56:45.33
the scenes and they tell
me: "There's nobody better
00:56:45.53\00:56:48.00
than Gene. Got a great...
better heart for people.
00:56:48.20\00:56:51.44
He loves God; he's sincere. "
00:56:51.64\00:56:53.64
And Ladye said: "He's
big but he's a softie. "
00:56:54.04\00:56:56.61
He'll cry, you know, when
