Hello, and
welcome to "3ABN Today."
00:01:07.13\00:01:09.76
My name is C.A Murray
00:01:09.80\00:01:11.13
and allow me to thank
you once again for sharing
00:01:11.17\00:01:13.60
just a little of your
no doubt busy day with us.
00:01:13.64\00:01:15.97
We've got an exciting hour.
00:01:16.00\00:01:17.41
We got a lot to talk about.
00:01:17.44\00:01:18.97
Danny Shelton, our
founder and president is here.
00:01:19.01\00:01:21.48
And, Danny, I'm very excited
00:01:21.51\00:01:23.35
because the subject
that we are gonna sort of
00:01:23.38\00:01:26.51
dive into today.
00:01:26.55\00:01:28.08
I'm excited because we
see what the world is doing.
00:01:28.12\00:01:32.32
We see what the
country is doing.
00:01:32.35\00:01:34.02
We see the way
the world is headed.
00:01:34.06\00:01:36.66
Now there are two
things that you can do
00:01:36.69\00:01:38.09
when trouble faces you.
00:01:38.13\00:01:40.50
One, you can run
in a corner and hide.
00:01:40.53\00:01:43.13
Two, you can
re-establish your mission,
00:01:43.16\00:01:46.13
and double down on your efforts
00:01:46.17\00:01:48.27
and make sure that
you are going in the way
00:01:48.30\00:01:49.90
that God has asked you to go.
00:01:49.94\00:01:52.11
And that's what this
program is all about.
00:01:52.14\00:01:54.11
We're calling it
"3ABN Today" visioning
00:01:54.14\00:01:57.55
because we see
00:01:57.58\00:01:59.35
some of the things
that the country has voted
00:01:59.38\00:02:01.02
in just the last little bit
00:02:01.05\00:02:02.55
and we choose to re-establish
ourselves in the mission of God
00:02:02.58\00:02:07.32
to double down on our efforts
00:02:07.36\00:02:08.69
because God has
taught us and told us
00:02:08.72\00:02:10.93
to do nothing else but that.
00:02:10.96\00:02:12.59
So that's what
we're gonna do today.
00:02:12.63\00:02:13.96
We're gonna talk to you.
00:02:14.00\00:02:15.33
We're gonna re-cast the vision,
we're gonna re-shine the light,
00:02:15.36\00:02:19.37
we're gonna
re-double our efforts
00:02:19.40\00:02:21.20
and we're gonna bring
you into the family of work.
00:02:21.24\00:02:24.17
I call this,
Danny, "The age of do."
00:02:24.21\00:02:27.28
Oh, I like it, okay.
We are in the age of do.
00:02:27.31\00:02:28.98
We got a sermon on
that called "The age of do."
00:02:29.01\00:02:30.65
I love it. And
we're going to do.
00:02:30.68\00:02:32.01
Okay.
00:02:32.05\00:02:33.38
And we got a lot
of folks to help us,
00:02:33.42\00:02:35.02
tell us what to
do and how to do it.
00:02:35.05\00:02:38.65
So lets-- we got a new hat
00:02:38.69\00:02:40.76
for our pastor, our
friend, John Lomacang.
00:02:40.79\00:02:42.49
He gets a new hat today. Okay.
00:02:42.52\00:02:44.09
And you gonna tell
him about the new hat.
00:02:44.13\00:02:45.46
I will.
00:02:45.49\00:02:46.83
We got Mollie Steenson, vice
president and general manager,
00:02:46.86\00:02:48.46
and flower among-
00:02:48.50\00:02:49.83
That's enough hats.
00:02:49.86\00:02:51.20
Yes, and rose among the thorns.
We've got Brian Hamilton.
00:02:51.23\00:02:54.67
He gets a new hat today.
00:02:54.70\00:02:56.04
Well it's actually it's
another feather in the cap.
00:02:56.07\00:02:58.01
You're right, he
gets another hat.
00:02:58.04\00:02:59.37
Yeah, he gets another hat.
00:02:59.41\00:03:00.74
We got to wear multiple hats.
00:03:00.78\00:03:02.94
Yvonne Lewis, Dare to
Dream general manager.
00:03:02.98\00:03:06.01
Greg Morikone,
our production manager
00:03:06.05\00:03:08.35
and John Dinzey,
general manager of 3ABN Latino.
00:03:08.38\00:03:11.92
And we're all on board
00:03:11.95\00:03:13.29
because you've got
some stuff to tell us
00:03:13.32\00:03:14.66
and we cannot
wait to hear it, man,
00:03:14.69\00:03:16.02
because it's a good stuff
00:03:16.06\00:03:17.39
and we know that as
you slept upon your bed,
00:03:17.43\00:03:18.89
in fact, you didn't
sleep, you are awake.
00:03:18.93\00:03:20.86
As you are awake upon your bed,
00:03:20.90\00:03:22.36
God had some things that
He planted in your spirit
00:03:22.40\00:03:25.10
that you begun to share with us
00:03:25.13\00:03:26.47
and you've let a
fire in our souls, man.
00:03:26.50\00:03:29.04
Oh, praise the Lord.
00:03:29.07\00:03:30.41
And we want to
share it with the world.
00:03:30.44\00:03:31.77
Absolutely.
00:03:31.81\00:03:33.14
First of all, I want to thank
all of you for being here today
00:03:33.17\00:03:35.48
and again as C.A.
said for our viewers
00:03:35.51\00:03:37.88
and our supporters,
our listeners, thank you.
00:03:37.91\00:03:40.05
For without you
there would be no 3ABN.
00:03:40.08\00:03:42.12
We'd all just be
sitting here together
00:03:42.15\00:03:44.05
talking and getting nothing done
00:03:44.09\00:03:46.32
but as C.A. talked about it
and in lieu of recent events
00:03:46.35\00:03:51.19
and the Supreme Court
ruling to five to four
00:03:51.23\00:03:54.33
on re-defining marriage.
00:03:54.36\00:03:56.03
How do you redefine
something that God created?
00:03:56.06\00:03:58.33
That's right.
That God sanctified.
00:03:58.37\00:04:00.27
I mean, that's amazing
00:04:00.30\00:04:01.67
that our country that
founded on Christian principles
00:04:01.70\00:04:05.57
could now be
trampling on God and His law.
00:04:05.61\00:04:08.64
Basically shaking your
fist to God and saying,
00:04:08.68\00:04:11.48
"We want to live without you."
00:04:11.51\00:04:14.38
Or a lot of people are saying,
"We don't even believe in you,
00:04:14.42\00:04:17.45
we don't even
think there is a God."
00:04:17.49\00:04:19.39
I mean the times in
which we are living in
00:04:19.42\00:04:21.69
are incredible.
00:04:21.72\00:04:23.06
Who would have dreamed that,
five years ago, ten years ago,
00:04:23.09\00:04:26.29
this nation would be
headed to where it is.
00:04:26.33\00:04:29.20
Who would dream all the problems
00:04:29.23\00:04:31.67
around the world coming up?
00:04:31.70\00:04:34.04
ISIS groups, all these people,
00:04:34.07\00:04:35.80
all around the world, not
only in foreign countries,
00:04:35.84\00:04:38.27
but here and there
are so much unrest.
00:04:38.31\00:04:41.21
And the reason is we
kicked God out of our nation.
00:04:41.24\00:04:44.35
We took him out of our schools,
00:04:44.38\00:04:45.71
we didn't want to take Him
out of our educational system.
00:04:45.75\00:04:48.62
When I was a kid in school,
00:04:48.65\00:04:49.98
we could actually start school
with a prayer if we wanted to.
00:04:50.02\00:04:53.39
But you know, as
the times goes on
00:04:53.42\00:04:55.22
and people,
anti-God, anti-Bible, anti,
00:04:55.26\00:04:58.99
you know, everything
that seems like, right?
00:04:59.03\00:05:01.76
That we have fallen
into uh, what do you call it?
00:05:01.80\00:05:05.20
A trap, a trap that
we can't get out of,
00:05:05.23\00:05:08.70
only with the Lord Jesus Christ
00:05:08.74\00:05:10.37
and the only way we
can get out of this trap,
00:05:10.41\00:05:11.87
and this trap is called
it's terminal, it's death.
00:05:11.91\00:05:15.01
It's a no way out.
00:05:15.04\00:05:16.38
The devil got us into a
trap. How do we get out of that?
00:05:16.41\00:05:18.65
By looking to Jesus,
to the Cross of Calvary.
00:05:18.68\00:05:21.08
And it's time that
we stand up as a nation
00:05:21.12\00:05:23.55
and as Christians
and in particular,
00:05:23.59\00:05:26.59
here at 3ABN Angels
Broadcasting Network,
00:05:26.62\00:05:28.92
we want the world
to know where we stand.
00:05:28.96\00:05:31.63
We stand on the side of
God and on the word of God
00:05:31.66\00:05:34.66
because without
God there is no hope,
00:05:34.70\00:05:36.56
there is no future and
so He is the only answer
00:05:36.60\00:05:39.70
for this world's problems today.
00:05:39.73\00:05:42.20
3ABN, we've
always been committed
00:05:42.24\00:05:44.31
to taking an undiluted
Three Angels' Messages.
00:05:44.34\00:05:47.24
One that would counteract,
00:05:47.28\00:05:48.61
the counterfeit
into all the world.
00:05:48.64\00:05:51.05
I didn't know what that
meant when it first came to me.
00:05:51.08\00:05:53.08
I'm still
learning what that means.
00:05:53.11\00:05:55.02
But at times we may be
giving a Three Angels' Messages
00:05:55.05\00:05:58.22
for those who are more
in Seventh-day Adventist,
00:05:58.25\00:06:01.12
understand more Revelation 14.
00:06:01.16\00:06:04.06
the Three Angels' Messages
00:06:04.09\00:06:05.93
but for some of the rest
I'd say not sure what it is,
00:06:05.96\00:06:09.06
Revelation 14 talks
about an end time message
00:06:09.10\00:06:11.80
for an end times people.
00:06:11.83\00:06:13.17
Well,
Christians all over believe
00:06:13.20\00:06:14.77
we are living in the end times.
00:06:14.80\00:06:16.30
You can turn on
almost any television network
00:06:16.34\00:06:18.84
and they are telling you that.
00:06:18.87\00:06:20.21
But God is calling
a particular people.
00:06:20.24\00:06:22.54
He's saying, "Come
out of her, my people,
00:06:22.58\00:06:24.08
come out of Babylon,
come out of confusion."
00:06:24.11\00:06:26.45
And then He's telling us
00:06:26.48\00:06:28.02
that "I'm coming very soon
00:06:28.05\00:06:30.12
and for those of you
who are willing to stand up
00:06:30.15\00:06:32.25
to obey me rather than man,
00:06:32.29\00:06:36.02
now once you accept me as
Lord and Savior of your life,
00:06:36.06\00:06:38.79
you understand the
consequences of sin, death,
00:06:38.83\00:06:42.13
disease and sickness,
00:06:42.16\00:06:43.50
now go and tell
everybody around you."
00:06:43.53\00:06:45.47
Jesus says, "Go ye
unto all the world."
00:06:45.50\00:06:47.90
3ABN, we've been doing
that for about 30 years.
00:06:47.94\00:06:50.87
But now we have to look
at the situations around us.
00:06:50.91\00:06:54.38
We can't do business as usual
00:06:54.41\00:06:57.08
as we've been doing
for the past 30 years.
00:06:57.11\00:06:59.81
Yes, it's worked
in thousands here,
00:06:59.85\00:07:01.42
hundreds of thousands.
00:07:01.45\00:07:03.12
Jim Gilley says,
"Millions have come to the Lord
00:07:03.15\00:07:06.39
and to the church through 3ABN."
00:07:06.42\00:07:08.36
We don't have
any kind of counters
00:07:08.39\00:07:10.69
that say and
yeah, this happened.
00:07:10.73\00:07:12.19
But as we
traveled around the world,
00:07:12.23\00:07:13.73
we get reports
from around the world.
00:07:13.76\00:07:15.76
Praise God for your
support of this ministry.
00:07:15.80\00:07:18.13
But what are we gonna do
today, that is an eye-opener.
00:07:18.17\00:07:21.90
There are so many
things to distract us,
00:07:21.94\00:07:23.77
so many smokes grains
that we say what can we do,
00:07:23.81\00:07:27.78
Lord, what would
you have me to do?
00:07:27.81\00:07:29.28
I never thought, few months ago,
00:07:29.31\00:07:32.58
that I'd be sitting in this seat
00:07:32.61\00:07:34.52
that it started in
for 24 years as president,
00:07:34.55\00:07:37.45
founder and president.
00:07:37.49\00:07:38.95
But through
events that had happened.
00:07:38.99\00:07:41.66
Elder Gilley, Gilley retiring,
00:07:41.69\00:07:45.89
I said, "Okay,
I'll step back in,
00:07:45.93\00:07:47.40
the Board asked me to do it."
00:07:47.43\00:07:48.90
And I did it with
a little hesitation.
00:07:48.93\00:07:51.03
But as soon as I said,
00:07:51.07\00:07:52.40
Lord I want to do
what you want me to do,
00:07:52.43\00:07:54.34
I said, "Okay, this is
where I'm supposed to be."
00:07:54.37\00:07:56.40
Just as surely as when
we started 24 years ago.
00:07:56.44\00:07:59.97
And I think Brother Gilley,
who is not here with us today,
00:08:00.01\00:08:02.44
he's traveling but I
thank him for his support
00:08:02.48\00:08:05.61
in saying "I'm gonna continue
to support this ministry.
00:08:05.65\00:08:07.95
I love 3ABN."
00:08:07.98\00:08:09.32
But some people
have written and said,
00:08:09.35\00:08:11.45
"Why is he resigning?"
00:08:11.49\00:08:13.39
And he's written a letter
00:08:13.42\00:08:15.39
and tell us why he is resigning.
00:08:15.42\00:08:16.76
One of the reasons is,
00:08:16.79\00:08:18.13
I don't think he
minds me saying this,
00:08:18.16\00:08:19.49
since he's
talked about it himself,
00:08:19.53\00:08:21.13
he's 75 years old.
00:08:21.16\00:08:22.50
So everybody says,
00:08:22.53\00:08:23.87
"I didn't think he
was near that old."
00:08:23.90\00:08:25.23
That's a compliment.
00:08:25.27\00:08:26.60
But any of us when
we get to a certain age,
00:08:26.63\00:08:28.27
we should be able to not
have all the responsibilities
00:08:28.30\00:08:31.31
and all the so
called "headaches"
00:08:31.34\00:08:33.81
'cause there is
a lot in ministry,
00:08:33.84\00:08:35.18
believe it or not.
00:08:35.21\00:08:36.54
For those of you who
think there's nothing going on,
00:08:36.58\00:08:38.21
it's all easy doing.
00:08:38.25\00:08:39.58
But Jim is retiring
but he is not quitting.
00:08:39.61\00:08:44.35
Uh, he's still traveling.
He's going to be in churches.
00:08:44.39\00:08:46.79
He's still
supportive of this ministry,
00:08:46.82\00:08:48.76
we are still supportive,
we want to work together
00:08:48.79\00:08:51.23
and we want to
work together with you.
00:08:51.26\00:08:53.23
But we've said what can we
do to reach the world that is,
00:08:53.26\00:08:58.70
it looks totally
different than it did,
00:08:58.73\00:09:01.24
to me a few weeks
ago, a few months ago.
00:09:01.27\00:09:04.31
What can we do to
wake up call to the world?
00:09:04.34\00:09:07.24
So what we decided to do,
00:09:07.28\00:09:08.91
number one, C.A. is
to beef up evangelism.
00:09:08.94\00:09:11.55
Amen.
00:09:11.58\00:09:12.91
But it's tough, Brian
00:09:12.95\00:09:14.28
because Brian is letting
us with all the financially
00:09:14.32\00:09:16.89
we are actually this year,
00:09:16.92\00:09:18.55
we've been
actually spending more money
00:09:18.59\00:09:21.19
than we are bringing in.
00:09:21.22\00:09:22.56
And for the
last couple of years,
00:09:22.59\00:09:23.93
we've been doing that.
00:09:23.96\00:09:25.29
Now we have
some assets of course
00:09:25.33\00:09:27.20
but liquid cash and to be
able to have that money on hand,
00:09:27.23\00:09:30.57
that's a tough job.
00:09:30.60\00:09:32.33
And only can we stay in, I
hate to use the word business
00:09:32.37\00:09:35.87
but in ministry as you continue
to support this ministry.
00:09:35.90\00:09:40.44
But how can we go forward
if we are running low on cash.
00:09:40.48\00:09:46.92
And Johnny reminded me,
do you remember, Johnny,
00:09:46.95\00:09:49.18
and when you came
and said years ago,
00:09:49.22\00:09:52.19
"I think we need
to start Latino?"
00:09:52.22\00:09:53.56
Yes.
00:09:53.59\00:09:54.92
I had just
talked to them and said,
00:09:54.96\00:09:56.29
"Well, we are
million dollars down."
00:09:56.32\00:09:57.83
But when Johnny said that
I said, "Okay, let's do it"
00:09:57.86\00:10:01.73
and like it shocked him but
it shocked me more than him.
00:10:01.76\00:10:05.27
Because I
hadn't planned on that,
00:10:05.30\00:10:07.04
wait a minute, we
are million dollars down
00:10:07.07\00:10:08.57
and I'm telling him, "Let's
start a whole new network.
00:10:08.60\00:10:11.07
Now I take no credit for that,
00:10:11.11\00:10:12.87
in my flesh I just said no
00:10:12.91\00:10:15.01
but I had to say, "Lord
what would you have me to do?"
00:10:15.04\00:10:17.35
And I know that the Lord
pricked my mind and said,
00:10:17.38\00:10:20.55
"This is the time."
00:10:20.58\00:10:21.92
So I heard myself, I was
just as surprised as you,
00:10:21.95\00:10:23.89
"Let's do it."
00:10:23.92\00:10:25.25
But God honored it.
00:10:25.29\00:10:26.62
He not only were we
able to build the network,
00:10:26.65\00:10:27.99
He made up that million dollars
00:10:28.02\00:10:29.42
that we really needed
when we were running behind.
00:10:29.46\00:10:31.79
Right now is the
time when we decide,
00:10:31.83\00:10:33.23
we are not gonna
look at the money,
00:10:33.26\00:10:34.60
we are not gonna--
00:10:34.63\00:10:35.96
if we do, we're gonna
become maintenance people.
00:10:36.00\00:10:37.77
We're just maintaining,
00:10:37.80\00:10:39.33
we're just people
out bobbing into water.
00:10:39.37\00:10:41.17
We're not gonna do that.
00:10:41.20\00:10:42.54
We said Lord, we have
committed to go forward.
00:10:42.57\00:10:44.11
We are gonna go forward.
00:10:44.14\00:10:45.47
So what the Lord has
really been in prompting me
00:10:45.51\00:10:48.34
in all of you here and
our people here in 3ABN,
00:10:48.38\00:10:51.31
we've been very excited,
having meeting after meeting.
00:10:51.35\00:10:54.12
You can hear my voice is hoarse,
00:10:54.15\00:10:55.92
I've been talking for a
lot in the last week or two,
00:10:55.95\00:11:00.89
maybe even more than the normal,
00:11:00.92\00:11:03.16
But what can we do to get
this gospel of the kingdom
00:11:03.19\00:11:06.59
into all the world.
00:11:06.63\00:11:07.96
Some of us, older
folks have done the math.
00:11:08.00\00:11:10.07
We've realized if Jesus
doesn't come for too long,
00:11:10.10\00:11:12.83
we have to waste time in death.
00:11:12.87\00:11:14.40
And I hate wasting time.
00:11:14.44\00:11:16.40
Death is to me,
00:11:16.44\00:11:17.81
I'll accept it if
that's where the Lord's will
00:11:17.84\00:11:20.31
but it's a waste of time.
00:11:20.34\00:11:21.68
So I'm not interested in it.
00:11:21.71\00:11:23.21
I'd like to be doing things
00:11:23.24\00:11:24.58
and not be wasting
my time doing nothing.
00:11:24.61\00:11:27.12
And I'm sure some of
you feel the same way.
00:11:27.15\00:11:29.35
But what is that we can do
00:11:29.38\00:11:30.82
and we need to do
to take the gospel.
00:11:30.85\00:11:33.96
So it means change.
Change is not always easy.
00:11:33.99\00:11:36.49
But what are some of the
things that we're going to do?
00:11:36.52\00:11:37.99
So we decided, Let's
re-focus on evangelism,
00:11:38.03\00:11:42.10
so one of the
things that came to me,
00:11:42.13\00:11:44.20
Brian and I, we
were sitting there,
00:11:44.23\00:11:45.73
Mollie was gone last week
00:11:45.77\00:11:47.10
but we were sitting there
saying, how can we cut cost.
00:11:47.14\00:11:50.27
And we started looking over
00:11:50.31\00:11:51.64
all the
satellites and we decided,
00:11:51.67\00:11:53.01
there is a
satellite that we can cut
00:11:53.04\00:11:55.38
yet we can still reach to people
00:11:55.41\00:11:57.31
and we can still
reach maybe more than ever.
00:11:57.35\00:11:59.88
And we are talking about Europe.
00:11:59.91\00:12:01.48
There is numerous
ways we can reach Europe
00:12:01.52\00:12:03.92
and we said, there's certain,
we want a couple of satellites
00:12:03.95\00:12:06.39
that's reaching so as
we are trying to cut cost,
00:12:06.42\00:12:09.62
all of a sudden it hits
me, we need to go to Europe.
00:12:09.66\00:12:12.16
When you look at Europe,
00:12:12.19\00:12:13.66
it's compared to
the rest of our church
00:12:13.70\00:12:15.83
within our church,
it's-- the divisions in Europe,
00:12:15.86\00:12:18.73
the numbers are much smaller.
00:12:18.77\00:12:20.34
Brazil is into millions,
00:12:20.37\00:12:21.70
Africa's into millions you know.
00:12:21.74\00:12:24.04
I think, what is it, is
it 400,000 or something?
00:12:24.07\00:12:26.54
Under 500,000, well under.
00:12:26.57\00:12:28.74
In all of Europe.
00:12:28.78\00:12:30.11
So we said, why don't we
go to a place like London
00:12:30.15\00:12:33.72
and really have a
tremendous evangelistic outreach
00:12:33.75\00:12:36.95
to reach potentially
hundreds of thousands
00:12:36.99\00:12:39.69
and millions of people
00:12:39.72\00:12:41.39
because you can do it
live around the world.
00:12:41.42\00:12:44.76
And who should we go with?
00:12:44.79\00:12:46.26
We will take our own
pastor, Pastor John Lomacang
00:12:46.29\00:12:49.00
to come and then we decided,
00:12:49.03\00:12:51.10
we started talking, meeting
with pastors here in the area.
00:12:51.13\00:12:54.07
Maybe we should have
some satellite outreach first.
00:12:54.10\00:12:56.91
Go early, go to different towns
00:12:56.94\00:12:59.24
and already
prepared people coming for--
00:12:59.27\00:13:03.11
to the Lord and for baptisms
and then 3ABN go over there.
00:13:03.14\00:13:06.88
We can promote ways
to watch the Roku box.
00:13:06.92\00:13:09.95
Moses got a new
thing called My SDA TV,
00:13:09.98\00:13:13.32
that literally for $35,
00:13:13.36\00:13:15.52
you can watch all
the Adventist channels.
00:13:15.56\00:13:18.03
If you want a Roku,
00:13:18.06\00:13:19.39
you can watch
hundreds of channels.
00:13:19.43\00:13:20.93
You pay $49 for one time
00:13:20.96\00:13:23.50
and there is no,
we don't own Roku,
00:13:23.53\00:13:25.10
we have nothing to do with it,
00:13:25.13\00:13:26.47
we're just telling you
easy ways around the world.
00:13:26.50\00:13:29.14
You can take a Roku with
you as long as you got internet,
00:13:29.17\00:13:31.91
plug it in and
watch hundreds of channels
00:13:31.94\00:13:33.98
including all the 3ABN
channels, I think Hope channels
00:13:34.01\00:13:37.11
and there will be
some of the other channels
00:13:37.15\00:13:39.81
for a one time purchase.
00:13:39.85\00:13:42.18
I mean, that's amazing to
me that God is allowing us.
00:13:42.22\00:13:44.99
Your cell phones,
your mobile phones,
00:13:45.02\00:13:48.29
your what we call,
iPads, all of those things,
00:13:48.32\00:13:51.46
you can watch 3ABN.
00:13:51.49\00:13:52.83
But how do we
get into countries?
00:13:52.86\00:13:54.20
So suddenly I
started talking to folks.
00:13:54.23\00:13:56.87
We started getting
excited about evangelism.
00:13:56.90\00:13:59.33
So couple of mornings
ago, I said, man I can't sleep,
00:13:59.37\00:14:01.64
I woke up at 4 o'clock,
00:14:01.67\00:14:03.10
Lord, we're gonna
beef up our evangelism,
00:14:03.14\00:14:07.58
yet, Brian is
telling me that financially
00:14:07.61\00:14:10.08
we are in a really tough spot,
00:14:10.11\00:14:11.45
tougher than
we've been in years.
00:14:11.48\00:14:13.25
How do we deal
with all of these?
00:14:13.28\00:14:14.82
Well, the blessing is on the go.
00:14:14.85\00:14:16.25
Amen.
00:14:16.28\00:14:17.62
Little book recently,
we didn't talk about it,
00:14:17.65\00:14:19.82
maybe, if you
want that little book,
00:14:19.85\00:14:21.29
it's only 90 to 100 pages.
00:14:21.32\00:14:23.02
You call in tonight or email
us and we'll send you on free.
00:14:23.06\00:14:25.76
I don't know if we
planned on a free gift,
00:14:25.79\00:14:27.73
let's just make
that our free gift
00:14:27.76\00:14:30.00
for those of you
that's here watching.
00:14:30.03\00:14:32.13
So we'll do that.
00:14:32.17\00:14:33.50
Call whenever you see
this program, we'll give,
00:14:33.54\00:14:35.37
it had to be other than
Sabbath hours of course.
00:14:35.40\00:14:37.91
And we'll be happy to
send you one of these books.
00:14:37.94\00:14:40.41
But the blessing is on the go.
00:14:40.44\00:14:42.14
So as the team has started
talking to our team members,
00:14:42.18\00:14:45.28
what can we do?
00:14:45.31\00:14:46.65
I woke up and I
said, this is amazing,
00:14:46.68\00:14:48.78
there is over 18 million
Seventh-day Adventists baptized
00:14:48.82\00:14:52.55
I believe membership
give or take a million or two.
00:14:52.59\00:14:55.92
That in itself is amazing
because in 1984 and 1985,
00:14:55.96\00:15:00.13
Brian, they were only about
five million to six million
00:15:00.16\00:15:03.06
Seventh-day
Adventists around the world.
00:15:03.10\00:15:04.97
A million or two would
have made a huge difference.
00:15:05.00\00:15:06.97
Now it's growing so
much in the last 30 years
00:15:07.00\00:15:10.34
that we say give or
take a million or two.
00:15:10.37\00:15:12.07
There's 18 million of us.
00:15:12.11\00:15:14.48
But only about, and I
want you to think about this.
00:15:14.51\00:15:17.75
Only about eight to
nine thousand people
00:15:17.78\00:15:21.58
even give one dollar to 3ABN
a month, is that right, Brian?
00:15:21.62\00:15:25.52
Yes, that's right.
00:15:25.55\00:15:26.89
Eight thousand people
give say five dollars,
00:15:26.92\00:15:29.69
ten dollars give a month,
00:15:29.72\00:15:32.13
and those aren't regular,
everybody who does that.
00:15:32.16\00:15:34.66
Some of them as a one time gift
00:15:34.70\00:15:36.53
and there are
some monthly donors.
00:15:36.56\00:15:38.33
But I said, Lord, how is this,
00:15:38.37\00:15:40.04
we've got 18 million
Seventh-day Adventists,
00:15:40.07\00:15:43.10
they believe like us.
00:15:43.14\00:15:44.61
There is time to get the
gospel into all the world,
00:15:44.64\00:15:47.38
we're seeing world events
that Jesus is coming very soon
00:15:47.41\00:15:51.15
and we want to get
this gospel to the world.
00:15:51.18\00:15:53.78
But only eight or
nine thousand people
00:15:53.82\00:15:55.65
even give any
donation to 3ABN monthly.
00:15:55.68\00:15:59.12
I said, please
give us some idea.
00:15:59.15\00:16:01.72
How can we get
people involved to support?
00:16:01.76\00:16:04.69
And this little idea came to me
that the blessing is on the go.
00:16:04.73\00:16:08.20
So here is what we want
you to do and to think about.
00:16:08.23\00:16:11.00
We want you to pray
and say, ask the Lord.
00:16:11.03\00:16:14.17
Should I be a
monthly contributor to 3ABN?
00:16:14.20\00:16:17.24
Now it doesn't
make any difference
00:16:17.27\00:16:18.61
how much you and
the Lord can decide that
00:16:18.64\00:16:20.44
'cause five dollars
or thousand dollars,
00:16:20.48\00:16:22.44
that will be
between you and the Lord.
00:16:22.48\00:16:24.28
But anybody who wants to
be a monthly contributor,
00:16:24.31\00:16:27.25
that says yes, I will, we
want to put in your hands,
00:16:27.28\00:16:30.95
evangelism tools
00:16:30.99\00:16:32.55
because we can't do
it all by ourselves.
00:16:32.59\00:16:35.19
You can't do it
but together we can.
00:16:35.22\00:16:37.89
We can take
advantage of the technology
00:16:37.93\00:16:39.89
that we have in your commitment.
00:16:39.93\00:16:42.10
So we want you and
I would like to see
00:16:42.13\00:16:44.73
eight or ten thousand people
00:16:44.77\00:16:46.74
in the next before
the end of the year
00:16:46.77\00:16:48.90
who sign on to
say, you know what?
00:16:48.94\00:16:50.74
I'll be a monthly contributor.
00:16:50.77\00:16:52.37
Not just because of the
money that you are giving,
00:16:52.41\00:16:55.04
of course, we need that money
00:16:55.08\00:16:56.51
but also for your participation
00:16:56.54\00:16:58.85
for us to work
together to reach the world.
00:16:58.88\00:17:01.52
Wherever you live,
your friends and neighbors
00:17:01.55\00:17:03.89
need to hear the gospel too.
00:17:03.92\00:17:05.39
We don't need
always just planned
00:17:05.42\00:17:07.36
going to some other
country, going somewhere else,
00:17:07.39\00:17:09.59
what about right here at home?
00:17:09.62\00:17:10.96
That's right.
00:17:10.99\00:17:12.33
So what we've done is
we've actually started
00:17:12.36\00:17:14.73
it's called, The
Blessing Is on the Go!
00:17:14.76\00:17:16.90
Evangelistic Team Member
00:17:16.93\00:17:18.97
and I'm happy to
show the very first one.
00:17:19.00\00:17:22.00
This was printed up today
00:17:22.04\00:17:23.37
and the very
first person to commit,
00:17:23.41\00:17:25.54
she didn't know it,
but now she knows it,
00:17:25.57\00:17:27.84
to be an
Evangelistic Team Member
00:17:27.88\00:17:30.08
that every month
she'll give a donation,
00:17:30.11\00:17:32.08
is Sister Yvonne Lewis, Yvonne,
thank you for your donation.
00:17:32.11\00:17:35.62
Well, thank you for
informing me of my donation.
00:17:35.65\00:17:39.05
We happen to know you
are monthly donor anyway.
00:17:39.09\00:17:42.02
Well, it's so
exciting to me really.
00:17:42.06\00:17:44.26
This whole idea of the
team, the evangelistic team
00:17:44.29\00:17:48.16
because we are commissioned
to go forward so I'm happy.
00:17:48.20\00:17:52.57
I'm happy to be the first member
00:17:52.60\00:17:54.30
of The Blessing Is on the Go!
00:17:54.34\00:17:56.17
Evangelistic team.
00:17:56.20\00:17:57.54
Amen. Amen.
00:17:57.57\00:17:58.91
So what we are asking you
to do and here is the deal.
00:17:58.94\00:18:01.18
When you say, "I
want to be a team member,
00:18:01.21\00:18:03.85
I want to be a
Blessing on the Go,
00:18:03.88\00:18:05.31
this official
team member with 3ABN,
00:18:05.35\00:18:09.22
that I'll give a
monthly gift of any size,
00:18:09.25\00:18:11.42
we want to equip you
with evangelistic tools.
00:18:11.45\00:18:14.69
If you are
Evangelistic Team Member,
00:18:14.72\00:18:17.53
that means we
don't expect you to be
00:18:17.56\00:18:19.16
just sitting
doing nothing, right?
00:18:19.19\00:18:21.13
We want you to
participate with us.
00:18:21.16\00:18:23.77
Jesus says, "Go ye
into all the world."
00:18:23.80\00:18:25.90
Every one of us is a ye.
00:18:25.93\00:18:27.34
I don't think
anybody could sit here
00:18:27.37\00:18:29.04
watching or listening say,
00:18:29.07\00:18:30.41
"Oh, that doesn't
really refer to me.
00:18:30.44\00:18:32.37
"Go ye into all the world."
00:18:32.41\00:18:34.34
But some of us say I
really can't do much.
00:18:34.38\00:18:36.24
Maybe you are
home, you are retired,
00:18:36.28\00:18:37.61
your health is not
good, and you know what?
00:18:37.65\00:18:39.45
When you become a team member,
00:18:39.48\00:18:41.05
if it's $5 a month or $10 or 20,
00:18:41.08\00:18:44.42
we will send you
evangelistic tools.
00:18:44.45\00:18:46.35
We may send you the
sermon of the month,
00:18:46.39\00:18:48.72
maybe it's a Bible study,
maybe it's prophecy seminars,
00:18:48.76\00:18:51.56
we can send it on DVD.
00:18:51.59\00:18:53.23
You can invite people
to your home and show this.
00:18:53.26\00:18:56.90
You don't have to be a preacher,
00:18:56.93\00:18:58.27
you don't have to be a teacher,
you don't have to be a singer
00:18:58.30\00:19:00.10
but you can
invite people to come.
00:19:00.14\00:19:01.94
Some of you say,
well, I'll watch it
00:19:01.97\00:19:03.87
but I'm not in a position,
00:19:03.91\00:19:05.77
you don't have a
home, that's fine.
00:19:05.81\00:19:07.54
Give it to someone
else you know in your church
00:19:07.58\00:19:09.74
who says, we'll
invite people to our home
00:19:09.78\00:19:12.98
and we'll show this DVD.
00:19:13.01\00:19:14.82
Maybe it's the
studies on prophecy.
00:19:14.85\00:19:16.95
Maybe it could be
a study on a Sabbath,
00:19:16.99\00:19:18.75
maybe just salvation.
00:19:18.79\00:19:21.39
It can be
anything but every month,
00:19:21.42\00:19:23.49
we want to send you
and it's absolutely free.
00:19:23.53\00:19:26.56
We're going to
give you the studies
00:19:26.59\00:19:29.53
and pay the postage for
you or send in it to you
00:19:29.56\00:19:33.03
and return for
your commitment to say,
00:19:33.07\00:19:34.90
"I want to be a team member."
00:19:34.94\00:19:36.50
This does several things.
00:19:36.54\00:19:37.87
It helps us
tremendously financially
00:19:37.91\00:19:39.74
because if 10,000 of
you gave $10 a month,
00:19:39.77\00:19:43.75
that's a lot of money.
00:19:43.78\00:19:45.11
How much is that?
$10 million, isn't it?
00:19:45.15\00:19:46.48
It's 10,000,
00:19:46.51\00:19:47.85
a month would actually be.
00:19:47.88\00:19:50.35
So that's a lot of money,
00:19:50.39\00:19:51.79
tremendous amount
of money right now.
00:19:51.82\00:19:53.96
But what it also
does, it joins us together
00:19:53.99\00:19:57.33
rather than just a TV glass
00:19:57.36\00:19:59.09
between us and you
being cheer leader,
00:19:59.13\00:20:01.33
hey keep going
guys, we love what you do.
00:20:01.36\00:20:04.10
Jesus said, "Go
ye into the world."
00:20:04.13\00:20:05.93
So I'm asking you
to take responsibility
00:20:05.97\00:20:09.10
for hey, you know what?
00:20:09.14\00:20:10.47
Just giving is not enough.
00:20:10.51\00:20:12.24
But when I give, 3ABN
will send me evangelistic tools
00:20:12.27\00:20:17.01
so that I too can become a
"Go ye into all the world."
00:20:17.05\00:20:20.85
And it takes you
from being a sitter
00:20:20.88\00:20:22.88
to an action, right?
00:20:22.92\00:20:24.89
To a goer.
00:20:24.92\00:20:26.25
All right, I know
that's wrong, I wouldn't pass
00:20:26.29\00:20:27.92
any English test right now
00:20:27.96\00:20:29.82
but I think you
are getting my point
00:20:29.86\00:20:31.43
of what we want to do.
00:20:31.46\00:20:32.79
So we want to
send, it's very nice.
00:20:32.83\00:20:34.26
You can frame this.
00:20:34.30\00:20:35.63
We'd like for you to frame it,
share this with church members
00:20:35.66\00:20:38.93
and encourage them to become
00:20:38.97\00:20:40.90
an Evangelistic
Team Member of 3ABN.
00:20:40.94\00:20:43.87
Every month we will send you.
00:20:43.91\00:20:45.74
So please right
now you pray about it,
00:20:45.77\00:20:48.11
you think about it,
you contact us and say,
00:20:48.14\00:20:51.35
I want to be a
monthly contributor.
00:20:51.38\00:20:53.35
You decide.
00:20:53.38\00:20:54.72
You and the Lord decide how much
00:20:54.75\00:20:56.25
and I want to be a official
team member of evangelism
00:20:56.28\00:21:00.46
working partnering with
3ABN, then we will again,
00:21:00.49\00:21:03.46
we will send you every
month we'll equip you with tools
00:21:03.49\00:21:07.13
you can use or
share with church members
00:21:07.16\00:21:09.63
or your neighbors
00:21:09.66\00:21:11.00
but it helps you to be a part
of "Go ye in to all the world."
00:21:11.03\00:21:14.67
So you all can tell, I
got all these folks here.
00:21:14.70\00:21:16.81
I'm getting excited
00:21:16.84\00:21:18.17
because I
believe this is from God.
00:21:18.21\00:21:20.31
Brian, I really
expect we should double
00:21:20.34\00:21:23.68
and I'm praying
that we double the amount
00:21:23.71\00:21:25.35
even before the end of this year
00:21:25.38\00:21:27.12
of the monthly donors
00:21:27.15\00:21:28.72
and the donors that we have.
00:21:28.75\00:21:30.39
But those that
will give every month
00:21:30.42\00:21:32.22
because I'll tell you why,
00:21:32.25\00:21:33.59
with the laws, the way they are,
00:21:33.62\00:21:35.02
when 3ABN says, we are
not going to compromise
00:21:35.06\00:21:37.96
with the ruling of
the nation on marriage
00:21:37.99\00:21:41.46
that now it's just
between any two people,
00:21:41.50\00:21:43.73
the government will have
the right to come in and say,
00:21:43.77\00:21:46.60
"Okay, we are going to
take your non-profit status away
00:21:46.63\00:21:49.57
because this is
law of the land."
00:21:49.60\00:21:51.97
3ABN, I can tell you now
00:21:52.01\00:21:53.34
has no
intentions of compromising,
00:21:53.38\00:21:56.34
we are gonna put God
first, no matter what man says.
00:21:56.38\00:21:58.91
We want to obey
the laws of the land.
00:21:58.95\00:22:01.58
But we will not de--
00:22:01.62\00:22:04.55
literally deviate away
00:22:04.59\00:22:06.55
from where we're
supposed to be, right?
00:22:06.59\00:22:08.46
We are not gonna move
in any other direction.
00:22:08.49\00:22:10.43
We can't. It's not about us.
00:22:10.46\00:22:12.39
It's about God and His word.
00:22:12.43\00:22:14.00
So we preached the word
00:22:14.03\00:22:16.70
and that's all we
can do is give truth.
00:22:16.73\00:22:18.60
So when we, when this happens,
00:22:18.63\00:22:21.40
we're going to
need a lot of support
00:22:21.44\00:22:23.04
and if we get thousands
and thousands of people
00:22:23.07\00:22:25.41
giving $10, $20
00:22:25.44\00:22:27.21
then you are not so concerned.
00:22:27.24\00:22:28.58
I'm not when I get $20
00:22:28.61\00:22:29.94
about a tax write-off.
00:22:29.98\00:22:31.31
For the larger businesses,
that would hit them very hard.
00:22:31.35\00:22:34.35
So a lot of our
guests are from larger donors
00:22:34.38\00:22:36.95
who have one time gifts
over the end of the year.
00:22:36.99\00:22:39.85
So we want to build up our base.
00:22:39.89\00:22:41.92
But we want you to
join us and this is
00:22:41.96\00:22:45.49
literally a new
thrust for us in evangelism.
00:22:45.53\00:22:48.50
We are beefing up evangelism,
cutting cost already.
00:22:48.53\00:22:51.77
Things have happened.
00:22:51.80\00:22:53.13
Brian and I last week,
00:22:53.17\00:22:54.50
we've come up with the
ways to cut a million dollars
00:22:54.54\00:22:56.64
out of our budget for next year.
00:22:56.67\00:22:58.51
Praise the Lord for that. Amen.
00:22:58.54\00:23:00.21
That we are able to put money,
00:23:00.24\00:23:01.71
more money into evangelism
00:23:01.74\00:23:03.65
to take the gospel to the world.
00:23:03.68\00:23:05.35
3ABN will continue.
00:23:05.38\00:23:07.95
We're going to do
different programs,
00:23:07.98\00:23:10.39
we are doing some
3ABN family worship,
00:23:10.42\00:23:12.55
we are going to be doing
some more set around the piano,
00:23:12.59\00:23:15.22
musical programs,
that you used to like
00:23:15.26\00:23:17.03
when we set
around on Today programs,
00:23:17.06\00:23:19.39
we are going to be
doing more of those.
00:23:19.43\00:23:21.03
We are going to be doing some
00:23:21.06\00:23:22.40
where we go to
the worship centre,
00:23:22.43\00:23:23.77
15 or 20 people,
00:23:23.80\00:23:25.47
questioning and letting
people talk about current events
00:23:25.50\00:23:28.07
to keep you up so you don't
always have to go to CNN or Fox
00:23:28.10\00:23:31.34
or whoever you go to
00:23:31.37\00:23:32.71
try to keep up
00:23:32.74\00:23:34.08
because how does all of
this relate to us as Christians?
00:23:34.11\00:23:36.64
How relevant is
all of these decisions?
00:23:36.68\00:23:38.81
It's gonna effect
each and everyone of us.
00:23:38.85\00:23:41.55
Now is the time not to go
to sleep in that rocking chair
00:23:41.58\00:23:44.19
but to become a official
evangelistic member of 3ABN,
00:23:44.22\00:23:48.36
The Blessing Is on the Go! Team.
00:23:48.39\00:23:50.26
You are a team
member and we trust you.
00:23:50.29\00:23:53.19
We are not going to
be we just call it dones,
00:23:53.23\00:23:55.23
I don't know
what to call it done
00:23:55.26\00:23:56.60
and you ever hear that
you are old enough to say boy
00:23:56.63\00:23:58.37
that I'm this guy is
doning me, he wants his money.
00:23:58.40\00:24:00.84
I'm not old enough.
00:24:00.87\00:24:02.20
Oh, you are.
00:24:02.24\00:24:03.57
Greg seriously said
"I never heard of that."
00:24:03.61\00:24:05.84
Anybody else heard that.
00:24:05.87\00:24:07.68
You haven't. Oh, boy.
00:24:07.71\00:24:09.04
They don't use it in Brooklyn.
00:24:09.08\00:24:10.41
I'm older than everybody then.
00:24:10.45\00:24:12.78
You know, Danny,
we believe the Lord,
00:24:12.81\00:24:16.65
we have no idea where the
Lord is going to take this.
00:24:16.69\00:24:19.75
It's kind of a new
thrust or new vision
00:24:19.79\00:24:24.39
for us as a ministry to
be refocusing on evangelism.
00:24:24.43\00:24:29.53
I was just sharing
with our office team
00:24:29.56\00:24:31.93
because there is
logistics to have to work out
00:24:31.97\00:24:34.70
and we don't have all
the logistics worked out yet
00:24:34.74\00:24:37.11
you know, but we
are working on it.
00:24:37.14\00:24:38.71
And one of our employees
said what happens if I want,
00:24:38.74\00:24:43.68
if I get one of those tools
00:24:43.71\00:24:45.41
and I really like the
tool and I want ten of them.
00:24:45.45\00:24:48.52
Will we'd be
able to ten of them.
00:24:48.55\00:24:49.88
I thought
that's a good question.
00:24:49.92\00:24:51.35
Yes, I think, we'll be
able to do ten of them.
00:24:51.39\00:24:53.19
We'll find a way
00:24:53.22\00:24:54.56
for you to get ten of whatever
that tool is or twenty of it
00:24:54.59\00:24:57.86
if you have a way
to distribute that,
00:24:57.89\00:25:00.46
to share it with your friends,
00:25:00.50\00:25:01.90
your neighbors,
people you work with.
00:25:01.93\00:25:03.90
So I mean,
00:25:03.93\00:25:05.40
this thing can go in
all kinds of directions.
00:25:05.43\00:25:07.50
And it's really exciting to--
00:25:07.54\00:25:09.84
I'm gonna be watching to see
00:25:09.87\00:25:11.64
how the Lord takes
this thing with a dream.
00:25:11.67\00:25:13.91
One of the things that I
know pastor wants to speak
00:25:13.94\00:25:17.65
that's exciting, one,
is that we have for years
00:25:17.68\00:25:21.58
highlighted others
evangelistic efforts
00:25:21.62\00:25:24.62
which we should have done.
00:25:24.65\00:25:25.99
But now we are dare
I say upping the ante
00:25:26.02\00:25:29.26
because we are
stepping into aggressively
00:25:29.29\00:25:31.93
doing things for the
Lord evangelistically
00:25:31.96\00:25:34.86
and I'm glad that the Lord
impressed you to go to Europe
00:25:34.90\00:25:39.30
because I said to
someone the other day
00:25:39.33\00:25:41.54
that we've always called
Africa the Dark Continent.
00:25:41.57\00:25:43.84
And really, it's spiritually,
Europe is the Dark Continent.
00:25:43.87\00:25:47.18
And it needs the
light of the gospel
00:25:47.21\00:25:50.25
and I think 3ABN is
perfectly positioned
00:25:50.28\00:25:53.25
to do that.
00:25:53.28\00:25:55.35
To go to Europe and to
shine the light of Christ
00:25:55.38\00:25:58.25
and I think it's
an exciting thing
00:25:58.29\00:25:59.72
and one of the
things that let's you know
00:25:59.75\00:26:02.02
that it's of the Lord is when
you begin to share a vision,
00:26:02.06\00:26:04.09
if others catch it
without a lot of prompting,
00:26:04.13\00:26:06.26
'cause if this is of God
you shouldn't have to sell it.
00:26:06.29\00:26:08.16
It should sell itself.
00:26:08.20\00:26:09.56
So when I spoke
00:26:09.60\00:26:10.93
with the President of
the South England Conference,
00:26:10.97\00:26:13.17
he literally
jumped through the phone.
00:26:13.20\00:26:15.10
If he could have
jumped across Atlantic Ocean
00:26:15.14\00:26:17.81
to give me a hug,
00:26:17.84\00:26:19.17
I think he would have done so.
00:26:19.21\00:26:20.54
Very, very enthusiastic
and they are making plans,
00:26:20.58\00:26:23.95
they want to talk,
they want to partner,
00:26:23.98\00:26:25.31
they want to work with us
00:26:25.35\00:26:26.68
to lift up the
gospel in England.
00:26:26.72\00:26:28.42
I think it's a
great, a great, great thing.
00:26:28.45\00:26:30.09
Moses Primo said to
me just a few days ago
00:26:30.12\00:26:33.46
you know, "You remember, Danny,
00:26:33.49\00:26:34.92
when we went to Russia,
00:26:34.96\00:26:36.42
thousands of
people have been baptized
00:26:36.46\00:26:38.09
and still
through that facility,"
00:26:38.13\00:26:40.00
"do you
remember, when we went to"
00:26:40.03\00:26:41.36
uh, he said "when
we went to New Guinea,
00:26:41.40\00:26:44.50
we built stations to
reach the whole country,
00:26:44.53\00:26:47.07
you remember when we
went to the Philippines,
00:26:47.10\00:26:48.87
you remember when we teamed up
00:26:48.90\00:26:50.24
with Maranatha went
to India, the excitement
00:26:50.27\00:26:53.84
and to see thousands
00:26:53.88\00:26:55.21
and hundreds of
thousands of people
00:26:55.24\00:26:56.91
and we haven't
been doing that lately.
00:26:56.95\00:26:58.28
We need to go
forward and then we said,
00:26:58.31\00:27:00.42
man, Europe what a place to be
00:27:00.45\00:27:02.68
because where the
reformation started
00:27:02.72\00:27:05.22
is probably the least amount,
00:27:05.25\00:27:08.32
I hate to say they
were dead but spiritually
00:27:08.36\00:27:10.56
that of any
continent here on earth.
00:27:10.59\00:27:15.03
It's like fewer Christians
00:27:15.06\00:27:16.97
and people not
seemingly like so many
00:27:17.00\00:27:20.17
but we have a lot of people
00:27:20.20\00:27:22.34
that have not bow their
knees to Bale in Europe,
00:27:22.37\00:27:26.41
that we want to get
these tools into their hands
00:27:26.44\00:27:29.28
and we want to
see a new reformation
00:27:29.31\00:27:31.71
right here a
brand new reformation
00:27:31.75\00:27:33.72
that the world is
going to be talking about.
00:27:33.75\00:27:35.35
Once again, Europe
and all the excitement
00:27:35.38\00:27:38.85
and the gospel
going to the world
00:27:38.89\00:27:40.29
and you can be part of
that, we can be part of that.
00:27:40.32\00:27:43.56
And so because of that I
said, we need to re-focus
00:27:43.59\00:27:46.66
so I called Pastor
John, I said, John,
00:27:46.70\00:27:48.56
we want a world
evangelism department.
00:27:48.60\00:27:51.27
We never really had a
world evangelism department
00:27:51.30\00:27:54.97
and we need somebody to head it.
00:27:55.00\00:27:56.54
Well, who better than
Mr. World traveler, right?
00:27:56.57\00:27:59.87
He preached on every
continent staying in the world.
00:27:59.91\00:28:03.38
Then John has a
vision for world evangelism
00:28:03.41\00:28:07.05
and John said-
00:28:07.08\00:28:09.12
I'm excited about
it. Let me tell you why.
00:28:09.15\00:28:10.95
We are living in uncertain times
00:28:10.99\00:28:12.42
and what's better time to give
the trumpet a certain sound.
00:28:12.45\00:28:16.02
Amen. come on.
00:28:16.06\00:28:17.39
The world is
uncertain about its future,
00:28:17.43\00:28:18.89
the financial position
of our country is uncertain.
00:28:18.93\00:28:22.26
The political
landscape is uncertain.
00:28:22.30\00:28:24.93
The moral
landscape is uncertain.
00:28:24.97\00:28:27.14
Everything is going downhill.
00:28:27.17\00:28:28.94
It's time for God's
people to give the trumpet
00:28:28.97\00:28:30.81
a certain sound.
00:28:30.84\00:28:32.31
Now I mentioned this to Danny,
00:28:32.34\00:28:33.68
I said, we are 3ABN,
00:28:33.71\00:28:35.04
Three Angels
Broadcasting Network.
00:28:35.08\00:28:37.81
What better thing to do than to,
00:28:37.85\00:28:39.55
than to infuse into evangelism,
00:28:39.58\00:28:42.08
something that is
lacking in our world.
00:28:42.12\00:28:44.15
That is the preaching of
the Three Angels' Messages.
00:28:44.19\00:28:46.89
Now that's the
basis of this ministry.
00:28:46.92\00:28:49.12
3ABN.
00:28:49.16\00:28:50.49
But you know, the
world right now is perishing,
00:28:50.53\00:28:52.69
the world is perishing
00:28:52.73\00:28:54.06
for the lack of
the unmixed word.
00:28:54.10\00:28:57.17
Now what I mean by that
is tradition has taken over
00:28:57.20\00:29:00.34
the preaching of
the word and right now,
00:29:00.37\00:29:03.00
many of us could see this,
00:29:03.04\00:29:05.24
you can preach the gospel
00:29:05.27\00:29:06.88
and leave out the
everlasting gospel.
00:29:06.91\00:29:08.74
You can preach so
many stories in the Bible
00:29:10.41\00:29:12.95
but leave out the story
of the urgency of the hour.
00:29:12.98\00:29:15.88
I believe we talk
about present truth,
00:29:15.92\00:29:18.15
the present truth,
the message for this hour
00:29:18.19\00:29:20.42
is the Three Angels' Messages,
00:29:20.46\00:29:21.99
warning of the judgment
hour, warning of Babylon's fall,
00:29:22.02\00:29:25.96
the warning
that's going to be soon
00:29:25.99\00:29:27.43
on the landscape
as you said, Danny.
00:29:27.46\00:29:28.80
Right now we are having to make
a moral decision in our nation
00:29:28.83\00:29:32.03
about something we
thought would never happen.
00:29:32.07\00:29:33.40
That's true.
00:29:33.44\00:29:34.77
But look at what happened.
00:29:34.80\00:29:36.14
For centuries the
Sabbath has been trampled.
00:29:36.17\00:29:38.64
That's the first thing God
blessed in Eden before sin.
00:29:38.67\00:29:41.58
What else did he blessed?
00:29:41.61\00:29:42.94
The family.
00:29:42.98\00:29:44.31
So Satan has
successfully trampled
00:29:44.35\00:29:45.68
on the two
institutions God established.
00:29:45.71\00:29:47.92
What should the church do?
00:29:47.95\00:29:49.28
Should we hide? No.
00:29:49.32\00:29:50.65
Absolutely not.
We should not hide.
00:29:50.69\00:29:52.62
We should give the
trumpet a certain sound, right?
00:29:52.65\00:29:54.72
And so I've
said this many times,
00:29:54.76\00:29:57.33
I'm not looking forward to it.
00:29:57.36\00:29:58.76
But one day I was
sitting with John Dinzey
00:29:58.79\00:30:00.16
at lunch at
church and I said, "John,
00:30:00.20\00:30:01.80
you want to do, you
want to join me in prison?"
00:30:01.83\00:30:03.43
He said, "What?"
00:30:03.47\00:30:04.80
You know, John, I said.
00:30:04.83\00:30:06.33
He said, "What
do you mean by that?
00:30:06.37\00:30:07.70
I said, "Well, you know what?
00:30:07.74\00:30:09.07
When it comes
to choosing between
00:30:09.10\00:30:10.44
following the laws of the land
or following the law of God,
00:30:10.47\00:30:13.14
I'm gonna choose the law of God.
00:30:13.17\00:30:14.51
And you know,
that's where we are.
00:30:14.81\00:30:16.14
We have to choose to follow God
00:30:16.18\00:30:17.51
and give the
trumpet a certain sound.
00:30:17.55\00:30:19.11
There was a quotation
00:30:19.15\00:30:20.48
I want to share
this very quickly.
00:30:20.52\00:30:22.28
When Ellen White talks about
00:30:22.32\00:30:23.75
the Revelation
message of the Three Angels,
00:30:23.79\00:30:25.75
she said, she said,
00:30:25.79\00:30:27.39
the messages that are given
in their order in Revelation
00:30:27.42\00:30:29.92
are to occupy the
first place in our minds,
00:30:29.96\00:30:32.99
nothing else is to be allowed
to engross our attention.
00:30:33.03\00:30:36.26
So as world evangelism,
00:30:36.30\00:30:37.73
we're taking the
Three Angels' Messages
00:30:37.77\00:30:39.20
back to the world
through the portal of 3ABN.
00:30:39.23\00:30:42.80
And Mollie has a script.
00:30:42.84\00:30:44.17
I'm going to ask her
to read in just a moment
00:30:44.21\00:30:45.54
because you know what?
00:30:45.57\00:30:46.91
This is the hour.
00:30:46.94\00:30:48.28
The hour is to grasp
or hold of the vision
00:30:48.31\00:30:50.81
and to make it
plain to give the trumpet
00:30:50.85\00:30:52.81
a clear sound and you know what?
00:30:52.85\00:30:54.25
Europe needs to hear it.
00:30:54.28\00:30:56.28
Africa has blown the trumpet,
Brazil has blown the trumpet,
00:30:56.32\00:30:59.19
the Philippines
has blown the trumpet.
00:30:59.22\00:31:00.56
The Caribbean has
blown the trumpet.
00:31:00.59\00:31:01.92
America has blown the trumpet.
00:31:01.96\00:31:03.32
But we have to clear
the message up in America
00:31:03.36\00:31:05.63
and light the
message up in Europe.
00:31:05.83\00:31:08.53
So God wants to ignite
us, He wants to empower us
00:31:08.56\00:31:11.37
and I'm excited about
what God is going to do
00:31:11.40\00:31:13.17
in this ministry
coming at real soon.
00:31:13.20\00:31:15.47
That text about
what God is going to do-
00:31:15.50\00:31:18.04
The marching order a little bit.
00:31:18.07\00:31:19.41
The marching order.
00:31:19.44\00:31:20.78
Well, what I've got
is the vision, right?
00:31:20.81\00:31:22.98
I want to do the vision.
00:31:23.01\00:31:24.35
Haggai 2:2 and I hope
00:31:24.38\00:31:27.55
that our viewers
are catching this
00:31:27.58\00:31:29.75
because there is such
stirring in our spirit
00:31:29.78\00:31:33.86
because the vision is
being refreshed within us
00:31:33.89\00:31:37.39
and this morning Danny
came in and continued to share
00:31:37.43\00:31:42.76
and I got so excited
00:31:42.80\00:31:44.77
and that's all this
program about today,
00:31:44.80\00:31:47.44
is we want to share the vision
00:31:47.47\00:31:49.07
and get you excited
about the vision here at 3ABN.
00:31:49.10\00:31:52.47
And the scripture says,
00:31:52.51\00:31:54.61
"Then the Lord
answered me and said,
00:31:54.64\00:31:56.85
'Write the vision and
make it plain on tablets,
00:31:56.88\00:31:59.98
that he may run who reads it
00:32:00.02\00:32:02.52
for the vision is
yet for an appointed time
00:32:02.55\00:32:05.09
but at the end it will
speak and it will not lie.
00:32:05.12\00:32:08.56
Though it tarries, wait for it
00:32:08.59\00:32:10.96
because it will surely
come, it will not tarry."
00:32:10.99\00:32:13.50
So as this vision is
been stirred within us,
00:32:13.53\00:32:17.30
we're giving, being
given direction to head in.
00:32:17.33\00:32:20.60
We are reading it.
00:32:20.64\00:32:21.97
We are catching it and
now we're running with it.
00:32:22.00\00:32:24.87
Because this is
the appointed time.
00:32:24.91\00:32:26.61
Yes, it is.
00:32:26.64\00:32:27.98
This is the
appointed time. That's right.
00:32:28.01\00:32:29.34
We all know, we all, sense it.
00:32:29.38\00:32:30.91
Brian, we are saying how
can we get people involved.
00:32:30.95\00:32:33.82
Brian, we started a
new 3ABN, Prison Ministry.
00:32:33.85\00:32:37.42
Now this is not
a Prison Ministry
00:32:37.45\00:32:39.19
where we are
saying, send a lot of money,
00:32:39.22\00:32:40.92
we want to do this,
00:32:40.96\00:32:42.29
there is a lot of
Prison Ministries out there
00:32:42.32\00:32:43.69
that we support.
00:32:43.73\00:32:45.06
But Brian, starting
here just a few years ago,
00:32:45.09\00:32:48.90
and getting
church members involved
00:32:48.93\00:32:50.97
Of out of the pews,
00:32:51.00\00:32:52.80
volunteering to go into prison
seen people's lives changed,
00:32:52.83\00:32:57.01
it's such a model of success,
00:32:57.04\00:32:58.87
I said, "Brian, can
you give this vision
00:32:58.91\00:33:01.24
to people around,
00:33:01.28\00:33:02.91
all around the world
00:33:02.94\00:33:04.28
that you can do it
in your own community?"
00:33:04.31\00:33:05.95
We did it here,
without a budget,
00:33:05.98\00:33:07.52
without hiring one person,
00:33:07.55\00:33:09.12
Brian's not going to be
paid for the prison ministry,
00:33:09.15\00:33:11.69
he's still CFO,
00:33:11.72\00:33:13.19
he's still here but
he's done this on his own
00:33:13.22\00:33:15.46
because he said you know,
00:33:15.49\00:33:17.46
what he's saying by his actions,
00:33:17.49\00:33:18.83
yeah, I work there all the time,
00:33:18.86\00:33:20.20
whether it is 40 hrs, 50 hrs,
00:33:20.23\00:33:21.56
but on my own
time what am I doing.
00:33:21.60\00:33:23.37
I'm still, I am a
preacher. I'm going out.
00:33:23.40\00:33:25.57
You are a preacher by the way.
00:33:25.60\00:33:27.04
And I'm going
out to still continue
00:33:27.07\00:33:29.30
to give the gospel message.
00:33:29.34\00:33:30.67
Tell us just a little
bit about what we can expect
00:33:30.71\00:33:33.27
and tools may be we can give
to help in Prison Ministries.
00:33:33.31\00:33:36.78
Okay.
00:33:36.81\00:33:38.15
One of the things that
we learned fairly soon,
00:33:38.18\00:33:42.45
in our Prison Ministry was
00:33:42.48\00:33:44.62
that the
prisoners that we have 3ABN
00:33:44.65\00:33:48.26
at least radio and
some of them television in,
00:33:48.29\00:33:51.49
it re-enforced our teaching.
00:33:51.53\00:33:53.16
Okay.
00:33:53.19\00:33:54.53
So, we'd present a lesson
00:33:54.56\00:33:56.13
but then they would
get in during the week,
00:33:56.16\00:33:59.20
they would get re-enforcements
through the programs on 3ABN
00:33:59.23\00:34:02.20
and they'd come
and tell us about it.
00:34:02.24\00:34:03.71
Oh, I saw this
or I saw heard this
00:34:03.74\00:34:05.77
and so I got,
okay, that's a neat tool.
00:34:05.81\00:34:10.11
So one of our main goals
00:34:10.15\00:34:13.18
for Prison Ministry is to,
get 3ABN into every prison.
00:34:13.21\00:34:17.42
Okay. We want
3ABN in every prison.
00:34:17.45\00:34:20.56
And we started along the way.
00:34:20.59\00:34:22.06
We are in probably
30, 40 prisons right now.
00:34:22.09\00:34:24.26
Good, okay
00:34:24.29\00:34:25.63
But that's just
a drop in a bucket
00:34:25.66\00:34:27.00
compared to all the prisons.
00:34:27.03\00:34:28.86
And they are
captive audiences. You know.
00:34:28.90\00:34:31.47
I wanted to say
that so I said it.
00:34:31.93\00:34:35.24
But they are.
00:34:35.27\00:34:37.44
And so we are working
with cable companies right now.
00:34:37.47\00:34:40.31
They provide viewing in prisons
00:34:40.34\00:34:44.15
we are working
with them right now
00:34:44.18\00:34:45.51
to get on the line up
00:34:45.55\00:34:46.88
and so we want to see this grow.
00:34:46.92\00:34:49.48
Well, every place that
we have 3ABN in a prison,
00:34:49.52\00:34:52.82
boy it will sure be good
to have an Adventist service.
00:34:52.85\00:34:57.06
Local, church members
coming into that prison
00:34:57.09\00:34:59.56
every week to teach the
word, to spread the message.
00:34:59.59\00:35:03.77
Absolutely.
00:35:03.80\00:35:05.13
And so we want
00:35:05.17\00:35:06.50
if we don't have
an Adventist team,
00:35:06.53\00:35:07.90
we want to inspire the
local churches in that area
00:35:07.94\00:35:11.34
to start a ministry
and get into the prisons.
00:35:11.37\00:35:14.01
Sure.
00:35:14.04\00:35:15.38
Where we do have an
Adventist presence and 3ABN,
00:35:15.41\00:35:18.85
then we want to come
there and help grow their work.
00:35:18.88\00:35:23.69
And we do that by what
we call Awareness Events.
00:35:23.72\00:35:26.76
Every prison needs
an Awareness Event.
00:35:26.79\00:35:28.82
It could be a concert,
it could be Lemuel Vega,
00:35:28.86\00:35:31.69
with Christmas Behind
Bars and the literature.
00:35:31.73\00:35:34.10
But in that event,
we publicized both 3ABN
00:35:34.13\00:35:37.77
and how they can get it
and also the local ministry
00:35:37.80\00:35:41.47
that's happening every week
00:35:41.50\00:35:42.84
in their facility
encourage them to go.
00:35:42.87\00:35:45.37
That will grow the
attendance and spread the word.
00:35:45.41\00:35:48.88
So that's a couple of things
that we have dreaming about
00:35:48.91\00:35:52.51
that we are excited
about going forward on.
00:35:52.55\00:35:54.35
It's great and
what's happening here
00:35:54.38\00:35:56.65
is literally and
I didn't realize it
00:35:56.69\00:35:59.59
when we were just, just
been in the last week or so,
00:35:59.62\00:36:02.32
starting this, it's
a grassroots movement
00:36:02.36\00:36:04.59
of revival and
reformation that we want.
00:36:04.63\00:36:07.66
We've got a tool,
00:36:07.70\00:36:09.03
God has blessed us here
in little Southern Illinois
00:36:09.06\00:36:10.90
in a little corn fields,
00:36:10.93\00:36:12.27
ex-corn fields and
corn all around us,
00:36:12.30\00:36:14.44
We'd have in summer time but
He has blessed us with the tool
00:36:14.47\00:36:18.04
that we literally
can reach the world.
00:36:18.07\00:36:19.87
What a shame if we are
not using it to the fullest.
00:36:19.91\00:36:23.04
Not using it for to
for the cause of God
00:36:23.08\00:36:25.91
in every way
that we can so again,
00:36:25.95\00:36:28.28
what Brian is saying is intent
00:36:28.32\00:36:30.89
for you to be
able to do something.
00:36:30.92\00:36:32.99
Maybe you are sitting in home,
you give to 3ABN, that's great.
00:36:33.02\00:36:35.92
But what are you doing yourself
to prepare the world around you
00:36:35.96\00:36:39.96
and keep yourself
refreshed and renewed
00:36:40.00\00:36:43.93
by the Holy Spirit by saying,
00:36:43.97\00:36:45.30
"Lord, how are you
going to use me today?"
00:36:45.33\00:36:46.97
You, if you
have any inclination,
00:36:47.00\00:36:49.80
you pray about it.
You can contact us here.
00:36:49.84\00:36:51.74
Brian will send you tools
00:36:51.77\00:36:53.27
to help you to
do what he is doing.
00:36:53.31\00:36:55.68
How to get 3ABN in the prisons,
00:36:55.71\00:36:58.08
maybe how to get teams together,
00:36:58.11\00:36:59.78
volunteers together.
00:36:59.81\00:37:01.35
It's the same way with
"The Blessing Is on the Go!
00:37:01.38\00:37:03.62
For those of you
just watching us,
00:37:03.65\00:37:05.45
this we want to send you.
00:37:05.49\00:37:06.82
Anybody that sends a
monthly gift of any size
00:37:06.86\00:37:10.06
that it makes you an official
"The Blessing Is on the Go!
00:37:10.09\00:37:12.79
OFFICIAL,
Evangelistic Team Member.
00:37:12.83\00:37:15.20
So 3ABN, it's got
a little seal on it.
00:37:15.23\00:37:17.13
3ABN, and it says,
00:37:17.17\00:37:19.37
"All authority is given
to me in heaven and earth."
00:37:19.40\00:37:21.47
It's a reminder of the
great gospel commission
00:37:21.50\00:37:23.87
of Matthew 28:18 to 20.
00:37:23.91\00:37:26.34
Of "Go ye into all the world."
00:37:26.37\00:37:28.34
So we want to join with you.
00:37:28.38\00:37:29.91
Now we are saying,
00:37:29.94\00:37:31.28
let's go to places that
the gospel doesn't seem--
00:37:31.31\00:37:34.38
Brazil is growing tremendously.
00:37:34.42\00:37:36.15
South America, Africa, amazing.
00:37:36.18\00:37:39.05
We went to
General Conference session
00:37:39.09\00:37:40.92
but very few in
comparisons to Europe,
00:37:40.96\00:37:43.53
so the Lord is really
dealing on our hearts to go.
00:37:43.56\00:37:47.43
We're already
seeing with your phone call
00:37:47.46\00:37:49.16
with the Conference president
00:37:49.20\00:37:50.63
that we want to see
revival break out in Europe.
00:37:50.67\00:37:53.47
It's not been seen
since the 15th, 16th century.
00:37:53.50\00:37:56.97
That's going to be
amazing and it can happen
00:37:57.01\00:38:00.48
even more than it did
then because of all the tools
00:38:00.51\00:38:03.08
that God has given us,
00:38:03.11\00:38:04.45
Most of all, we
want to get you involved.
00:38:04.48\00:38:06.51
We want you to become
00:38:06.55\00:38:07.88
a team member and you know what?
00:38:07.92\00:38:09.25
If we were
sitting here by ourselves,
00:38:09.28\00:38:10.62
we can do very little
but out of 18 million,
00:38:10.65\00:38:13.46
Seventh-day Adventists
00:38:13.49\00:38:15.02
and 8 or 9,000 is all that give
00:38:15.06\00:38:17.86
support 3ABN and in that way,
00:38:17.89\00:38:19.93
I believe that God is calling us
00:38:19.96\00:38:21.90
to work together when you
give, we'll give you supplies,
00:38:21.93\00:38:25.67
we'll give you
evangelistic tools
00:38:25.70\00:38:27.57
so that you now can
reach those around you
00:38:27.60\00:38:30.67
and so we want to
continue this thought
00:38:30.71\00:38:33.07
but what I am
saying here is that
00:38:33.11\00:38:35.58
what we are doing
is not just preaching.
00:38:35.61\00:38:37.81
It's one thing to say,
okay, we got this sermon on,
00:38:37.85\00:38:40.65
we got that sermon on.
00:38:40.68\00:38:42.02
We have another
sermon on, this is all good,
00:38:42.05\00:38:43.89
we got this music, no.
00:38:43.92\00:38:45.32
Right now, it's a
time, the appointed time,
00:38:45.35\00:38:47.49
John was saying for
all of us to get up.
00:38:47.52\00:38:49.86
Stand up together and say,
00:38:49.89\00:38:51.56
"Lord, what would
you have me to do."
00:38:51.59\00:38:54.10
And we can do that
by joining together.
00:38:54.13\00:38:55.86
So we are going
to ask you to become
00:38:55.90\00:38:57.30
an official
evangelistic team member,
00:38:57.33\00:39:00.07
here of the "The
Blessing Is on the Go! 3ABN.
00:39:00.10\00:39:03.17
When you first told
me about the vision,
00:39:03.20\00:39:07.14
I was so excited because,
00:39:07.18\00:39:09.44
because instead of just having
programming as you just said,
00:39:09.48\00:39:13.95
now we are really
being intentional.
00:39:13.98\00:39:16.28
We are putting
intention behind this.
00:39:16.32\00:39:19.59
We've been wanting to
share the gospel anyway
00:39:19.62\00:39:22.02
but now we have focused
activities on doing that.
00:39:22.06\00:39:25.99
And to me, it's so exciting
00:39:26.03\00:39:28.06
because all of the
viewers can play a part.
00:39:28.10\00:39:30.43
Everybody can play a role
00:39:30.47\00:39:32.73
in getting this
gospel out to the world
00:39:32.77\00:39:35.77
and it doesn't matter
about the size of the donation,
00:39:35.80\00:39:40.08
the point is that
everybody is doing something.
00:39:40.11\00:39:43.28
They are going to
get an evangelistic tool
00:39:43.31\00:39:45.28
that they can pass
out to someone else
00:39:45.31\00:39:47.52
and it can just
make a huge difference.
00:39:47.55\00:39:50.22
We don't need to think that,
00:39:50.25\00:39:51.59
well, that's somebody
else's job, let them do it.
00:39:51.62\00:39:54.22
No, it's our job.
00:39:54.26\00:39:55.62
We are the "ye" as you said
00:39:55.66\00:39:57.79
and so we must go
forward with the power
00:39:57.83\00:40:01.16
and anointing of God to
do this and it can be done.
00:40:01.20\00:40:05.00
It's God's blessing is in it.
00:40:05.03\00:40:07.80
This is all about Him.
00:40:07.84\00:40:09.24
This isn't about 3ABN.
00:40:09.27\00:40:11.07
This is about getting
God's word out to the masses
00:40:11.11\00:40:14.81
and so...
00:40:14.84\00:40:16.18
You can tell us spirit is
moving, everybody's like--
00:40:16.21\00:40:18.98
There is John,
there's Mollie, there's Brian,
00:40:21.98\00:40:24.39
Johnny Dinzey and Greg,
00:40:24.42\00:40:25.75
we'll get you in a minute
too, you haven't said much.
00:40:25.79\00:40:27.16
But go ahead.
00:40:27.19\00:40:28.52
I'm just thinking of
those that feel like you know,
00:40:28.56\00:40:30.63
I can't do anything
00:40:30.66\00:40:32.19
and I want to
back to that scripture
00:40:32.23\00:40:33.90
that you quoted
just a little earlier
00:40:33.93\00:40:36.10
there in Matthew,
that says, "Go ye."
00:40:36.13\00:40:39.17
But why before that He
says, what does Jesus say,
00:40:39.20\00:40:42.74
"All powers given unto
me in heaven and earth.
00:40:42.77\00:40:45.61
And you know what He did?
00:40:45.64\00:40:46.98
He took that power and
says, "Here, now go, you go."
00:40:47.01\00:40:50.75
You are not going
in your own strength,
00:40:50.78\00:40:52.35
you are not going
in your own power,
00:40:52.38\00:40:53.72
you are going into strength
00:40:53.75\00:40:55.08
and the power of
the Almighty God.
00:40:55.12\00:40:56.58
He is giving it to
you and you can do it.
00:40:56.62\00:40:59.55
Now, there's a
formula in the scripture that,
00:40:59.59\00:41:01.26
that's powerful Mollie.
00:41:01.29\00:41:02.66
We need a 4 hour program Danny,
00:41:02.69\00:41:05.26
but there's a formula in Isaiah
00:41:05.29\00:41:07.83
that is so powerful
that guarantees success
00:41:07.86\00:41:11.20
to the preaching of the gospel.
00:41:11.23\00:41:12.57
First of all, the
Lord came to ignite us.
00:41:12.60\00:41:15.24
Not to consume us but there
is a here it is, very quickly,
00:41:15.27\00:41:18.71
look at the
conditions of the world.
00:41:18.74\00:41:20.08
Look at this formula.
00:41:20.11\00:41:21.44
"For behold," Isaiah
60, verse 2, "For behold,
00:41:21.48\00:41:23.81
darkness shall cover the earth."
00:41:23.85\00:41:25.71
Is that true? Yes.
00:41:25.75\00:41:27.08
And "and gross
darkness the people:
00:41:27.12\00:41:29.82
but the Lord
will arise over you,
00:41:29.85\00:41:32.22
and His glory
will be seen upon you,"
00:41:32.25\00:41:33.89
and what's gonna happen?
00:41:33.92\00:41:35.26
"The Gentiles
shall come to your light,
00:41:35.29\00:41:37.53
and the kings to the
brightness of your rising."
00:41:37.56\00:41:39.86
That's the formula.
00:41:39.89\00:41:41.23
He said the
world is getting darker
00:41:41.26\00:41:42.60
but you're gonna get lighter.
00:41:42.63\00:41:43.97
If the glory of God is
going to be seen on us,
00:41:44.00\00:41:45.33
that's the
first angel's message.
00:41:45.37\00:41:46.70
"Fear God and
give glory to Him."
00:41:46.74\00:41:48.74
So at this glory,
at this dark hour,
00:41:48.77\00:41:50.81
the glory needs to be
reignited on God's people.
00:41:50.84\00:41:53.58
That glory will lead
us to the final message
00:41:53.61\00:41:56.48
that this
generation is gonna ever hear.
00:41:56.51\00:41:58.18
So this is the right
time, the appointed time.
00:41:58.21\00:41:59.71
Yes.
00:41:59.75\00:42:01.08
Forgive me Greg,
forgive me Johnny,
00:42:01.12\00:42:02.45
forgive me Brian.
00:42:02.48\00:42:03.82
I get the host
chair, I get to tap.
00:42:03.85\00:42:05.19
We raised a lot of
money and spent a lot of money
00:42:08.36\00:42:10.86
recently because we had to,
we had to get up to standard
00:42:10.89\00:42:14.10
enough to code so
that we can broadcast.
00:42:14.13\00:42:16.43
Right.
00:42:16.46\00:42:18.07
So now we're ready.
00:42:18.10\00:42:20.27
It's like you got
this new battleship.
00:42:20.30\00:42:21.97
There's a certain country
00:42:22.44\00:42:24.41
that they don't want
to get an atomic bomb why?
00:42:24.44\00:42:27.74
Because they
know if that country
00:42:27.78\00:42:29.11
gets the atomic bomb,
they are going to use it.
00:42:29.14\00:42:31.68
We got the atomic bomb.
00:42:31.71\00:42:33.42
We got to blow
something up, man.
00:42:33.45\00:42:35.05
You made me stare at
you, yeah experience it.
00:42:35.08\00:42:37.12
Yeah.
00:42:37.15\00:42:38.49
Experience that in there.
00:42:38.52\00:42:39.85
Yeah, we've got--
we've got something.
00:42:39.89\00:42:43.93
And it's time to
share it with the world.
00:42:43.96\00:42:46.59
You can't hold it back.
00:42:46.63\00:42:47.96
One you get the bomb,
00:42:48.00\00:42:49.33
you're going to
press the button.
00:42:49.36\00:42:50.70
We're ready to
press the button, man,
00:42:50.73\00:42:52.07
and unleash, unleash
the power of the gospel
00:42:52.10\00:42:56.44
on a whole continent.
00:42:56.77\00:42:58.17
And you don't
think God is in that?
00:42:58.21\00:42:59.61
That's what God wants us to do.
00:42:59.64\00:43:01.01
One of the first
times I went to Russia,
00:43:01.04\00:43:02.61
I was speaking with
translator and I said,
00:43:02.64\00:43:04.48
we need to set
people on fire, you know,
00:43:04.51\00:43:06.85
and Julia didn't
want to translate it,
00:43:07.02\00:43:09.22
I'm not sure
what she's established
00:43:09.25\00:43:10.59
she said, "What
do you mean by that?"
00:43:10.62\00:43:12.15
I said, well, you know
00:43:12.19\00:43:13.52
set people on
fire with the gospel,
00:43:13.56\00:43:14.89
she goes, "Oh, I don't
know if they'd understand
00:43:14.92\00:43:16.93
that over here what you mean."
00:43:16.96\00:43:18.46
That sounds really
bad, to set people-
00:43:18.49\00:43:20.36
So we have to sometimes like,
00:43:20.40\00:43:21.93
we're spiritually we're
going to blow things up.
00:43:21.96\00:43:24.43
All right. Greg, Johnny.
00:43:24.47\00:43:26.84
No, go for it pastor.
00:43:26.87\00:43:28.20
Uh, well, I'm excited because
00:43:28.24\00:43:30.31
I believe the Lord
is going to bless 3ABN
00:43:30.34\00:43:33.01
with unparalleled growth,
00:43:33.04\00:43:36.34
growth unlike ever before
00:43:36.38\00:43:38.41
because as more people join in,
00:43:38.45\00:43:42.28
going to all the world,
00:43:42.32\00:43:44.95
joining this
evangelism, team member.
00:43:44.99\00:43:48.12
It's going to bless
us to be able to grow
00:43:48.16\00:43:50.63
more than we have ever before.
00:43:50.66\00:43:52.26
Reach more people
for Christ and you know,
00:43:52.29\00:43:54.93
you've mentioned
there 8 to 9,000 people
00:43:54.96\00:43:57.33
that support 3ABN,
00:43:57.37\00:43:58.70
I believe not all of those
are Seventh-day Adventists.
00:43:58.73\00:44:01.07
Uh, I remember a story that
00:44:01.10\00:44:03.61
when I was in
pastoral, a man called and said,
00:44:03.64\00:44:05.57
"I've been watching
you guys for several years,
00:44:05.61\00:44:07.41
I'm not a Seventh-day Adventist,
00:44:07.44\00:44:08.78
but send me some envelopes.
00:44:08.81\00:44:10.15
You have blessed my life.
00:44:10.18\00:44:11.51
I want to help your ministry."
00:44:11.55\00:44:13.21
So I want to encourage those
00:44:13.25\00:44:14.72
that are watching
to join in this effort
00:44:14.75\00:44:17.05
to reach the
world for Jesus Christ
00:44:17.09\00:44:19.35
and this is going to go.
00:44:19.39\00:44:22.32
You know, I was
sharing with Danny,
00:44:22.36\00:44:24.06
yesterday about,
00:44:24.09\00:44:25.83
I was praying the week before,
00:44:25.86\00:44:27.20
Lord, we need to
get into some places
00:44:27.23\00:44:28.76
where we have very
little presence right now
00:44:28.80\00:44:31.13
as far as 3ABN Latino,
00:44:31.17\00:44:32.50
being on cable or
on some local channel
00:44:32.53\00:44:34.57
and I'd mentioned, you
know, Uruguay, Paraguay,
00:44:34.60\00:44:37.91
Spain that we, even
Cuba, that we're not in,
00:44:37.94\00:44:41.11
we have plans for Cuba
00:44:41.14\00:44:42.94
that we'll share
later another time.
00:44:42.98\00:44:46.21
Spain, somebody
wrote an email to us,
00:44:46.25\00:44:48.78
there's a channel there
uh, actually in several cities.
00:44:48.82\00:44:51.89
They are reaching over
ten and a half million people.
00:44:51.92\00:44:53.69
They don't have
enough programming
00:44:53.72\00:44:55.06
and they said, "We
want to team up with you.
00:44:55.09\00:44:57.63
So we believe this
is going to go faster.
00:44:57.66\00:45:03.33
The donations
coming will be fuelled
00:45:03.37\00:45:05.70
to get us to get
into those other places.
00:45:05.73\00:45:07.54
Amen. Greg.
00:45:07.57\00:45:09.30
Yeah, you know, I'm
really excited about this
00:45:09.34\00:45:10.71
because its, I believe
we are in end times for sure
00:45:10.74\00:45:13.58
and things are
rapidly taking place
00:45:13.88\00:45:16.21
not only in the United
States but around the world
00:45:16.24\00:45:19.51
and I think
about the Israelites.
00:45:19.55\00:45:21.28
I believe we are
getting close to Canaan
00:45:21.32\00:45:22.65
which to me is heaven.
00:45:22.68\00:45:24.02
Come on.
00:45:24.05\00:45:25.39
So the Israelites, you know,
00:45:25.42\00:45:26.76
they are
wandering in the wilderness
00:45:26.79\00:45:28.12
but they're at the Jordon River
00:45:28.16\00:45:29.49
and it's flooding, right?
00:45:29.52\00:45:30.86
So the priest
thinking of the "Go ye"
00:45:30.89\00:45:32.23
what did they have to do?
00:45:32.26\00:45:33.60
They didn't just sit back,
wait for the Jordon to open up.
00:45:33.63\00:45:36.00
They stepped out into the water
that went, the Jordon opened
00:45:36.03\00:45:39.10
and they passed
into the Promised Land.
00:45:39.13\00:45:40.54
I think this is an opportunity.
00:45:40.57\00:45:41.90
Right now, there's
that song, what is it?
00:45:42.00\00:45:44.04
"Work for the night is coming."
00:45:44.07\00:45:45.87
And I believe
the night is coming,
00:45:45.91\00:45:47.24
we have an
opportunity right now.
00:45:47.28\00:45:48.84
This evangelism
tool that we've got,
00:45:48.88\00:45:50.71
not only does it help
3ABN, which is worldwide,
00:45:50.75\00:45:53.65
but you as an individual,
at home can participate.
00:45:53.68\00:45:56.99
Talk to your
neighbors, your friends,
00:45:57.02\00:45:58.35
the people you associate with,
00:45:58.39\00:45:59.72
it's an opportunity
to win-win all the way.
00:45:59.75\00:46:01.39
Absolutely and one of the things
00:46:01.42\00:46:02.76
that we want to do is
that we are looking for layman
00:46:02.79\00:46:06.86
that, I'm going to use this,
"on fire" for Jesus all right,
00:46:06.90\00:46:10.63
spiritually "on fire" for Jesus.
00:46:10.67\00:46:12.33
Layman, who
your feet are itching
00:46:12.37\00:46:14.80
and you say, "Man, I
want to do something"
00:46:14.84\00:46:17.14
send us some videos in
a CDs of your preaching.
00:46:17.17\00:46:20.88
3ABN was founded by a layman
00:46:20.91\00:46:23.21
and over the years it seems like
00:46:23.24\00:46:24.78
we have less and less.
00:46:24.81\00:46:26.58
We want to open this back
up. This is for everybody.
00:46:26.61\00:46:29.22
Anybody who has a burden to
get the gospel to the world,
00:46:29.25\00:46:32.82
we are looking
for younger speakers.
00:46:32.85\00:46:34.32
We want some of you, you know,
00:46:34.36\00:46:35.96
some of us have gone
to the older side now
00:46:35.99\00:46:38.13
but we are
looking for young people
00:46:38.16\00:46:39.89
that love Jesus and
who is willing to stand up.
00:46:39.93\00:46:42.60
Whether you're preaching,
whether you're singing,
00:46:42.63\00:46:44.53
whether it's
teaching, whatever it is,
00:46:44.57\00:46:46.74
we, this is a new day,
00:46:46.77\00:46:48.40
we, our time is
short, we believe it.
00:46:48.44\00:46:50.81
All of us here,
not one of us doubt
00:46:50.84\00:46:52.97
that time is even much shorter
than I thought a few weeks ago.
00:46:53.01\00:46:56.61
After, when I turned
on the news, like CNN,
00:46:56.64\00:46:59.51
and I saw the White
House in the gay colors,
00:46:59.55\00:47:01.95
I said, who would
have ever dreamed,
00:47:01.98\00:47:03.59
I would have
dreamed, I would have thought
00:47:03.62\00:47:05.15
a National Sunday
law would have come first
00:47:05.19\00:47:07.06
'cause that's less understood.
00:47:07.09\00:47:09.06
This we know
better and to do this.
00:47:09.09\00:47:12.26
So when I saw that I
said, things are got to change.
00:47:12.29\00:47:14.93
We have to
re-focus the direction
00:47:14.96\00:47:17.37
of where we're going as
3ABN and you, as team members,
00:47:17.40\00:47:21.17
please consider
being a team member
00:47:21.20\00:47:23.94
of "The Blessing Is on the Go"
00:47:23.97\00:47:25.47
because it is,
when you move forward,
00:47:25.51\00:47:27.31
the evangelistic
team member with 3ABN.
00:47:27.34\00:47:30.01
A monthly gift of any size,
00:47:30.05\00:47:32.31
we would like to see what
we are getting now doubled
00:47:32.38\00:47:34.62
literally in
the next few months.
00:47:34.65\00:47:36.35
Doesn't make any
difference how much,
00:47:36.38\00:47:38.05
then we are gonna equip
you with evangelistic tools,
00:47:38.09\00:47:41.19
resources from
Bible studies to DVDs
00:47:41.22\00:47:44.09
to whatever it
takes that you need,
00:47:44.13\00:47:46.06
Brian says, we are
going to try to get it to you
00:47:46.09\00:47:48.36
and because you are
a team member of 3ABN.
00:47:48.40\00:47:51.60
So it brings us in a
relationship together.
00:47:51.63\00:47:54.77
You need to support, excuse me,
00:47:54.80\00:47:56.57
we're going to support you.
00:47:56.60\00:47:57.94
Amen.
00:47:57.97\00:47:59.31
I was you know,
you're mentioning
00:47:59.34\00:48:00.68
you are going to
empower people with tools.
00:48:00.71\00:48:02.38
We want to encourage people to--
00:48:02.41\00:48:03.78
when they get that
DVD, the sermon blesses you.
00:48:03.81\00:48:06.61
Make copies okay, or make copies
00:48:06.65\00:48:09.85
as many as you can to
distribute to other people
00:48:09.88\00:48:11.75
so they can also be blessed,
It's an evangelistic tool.
00:48:11.79\00:48:15.22
Use it.
00:48:15.26\00:48:16.59
You know, the Lord has given
us the statement of a guarantee
00:48:16.62\00:48:19.59
that the church
is going to succeed.
00:48:19.63\00:48:21.03
When he says, "Upon
this rock I build my church
00:48:21.06\00:48:23.50
and the gates of heaven
should not prevail against it,
00:48:23.53\00:48:25.67
"I used to think that we
had to be holding up our guard
00:48:25.70\00:48:28.30
as hell is coming against us
but really when I study that,
00:48:28.34\00:48:31.41
Mollie and pastors
here when I studied that
00:48:31.44\00:48:34.28
it was saying the
church is going forward
00:48:34.31\00:48:36.21
with such force
00:48:36.24\00:48:37.81
that the gates of
hell can't stop it.
00:48:37.85\00:48:39.71
Yeah, gates are
stationary. They don't move.
00:48:39.75\00:48:42.55
We have to go up against it.
00:48:42.58\00:48:43.92
The gates can't prevent
the church from going forward
00:48:43.95\00:48:46.39
so it is how when
people may tend to be fearful.
00:48:46.42\00:48:49.39
Uh, people might
say what do we do,
00:48:49.42\00:48:50.86
should we stand up?
00:48:50.89\00:48:52.23
This is the hour to stand.
00:48:52.26\00:48:54.03
"Be of good
courage, do not be afraid."
00:48:54.06\00:48:57.07
God has called
us to remember that
00:48:57.10\00:48:59.37
He has called us to the battle.
00:48:59.40\00:49:01.40
The battle is coming.
00:49:01.44\00:49:02.77
This great day of the
battle of God Almighty,
00:49:02.80\00:49:04.31
the battle of Armageddon.
00:49:04.34\00:49:05.67
The sides are polarizing today.
00:49:05.71\00:49:07.48
We have to give a trumpet,
00:49:07.51\00:49:08.84
we have to give the
trumpet a certain sound.
00:49:09.01\00:49:10.61
If it's not certain,
00:49:10.65\00:49:11.98
who will prepare for the battle?
00:49:12.01\00:49:13.38
That's right. Absolutely.
00:49:13.42\00:49:14.75
So if someone wants
to become a team member
00:49:14.78\00:49:17.35
what's the process
and what do they do?
00:49:17.39\00:49:20.36
All right, we are
actually gonna do a newsbreak
00:49:20.39\00:49:22.76
that gives you an idea
in our September newsletter.
00:49:22.79\00:49:26.36
We are going to tell you
how to do it but right now,
00:49:26.39\00:49:28.13
you call us, you email us
00:49:28.16\00:49:29.70
and just say
'cause this is so new.
00:49:29.73\00:49:31.53
It's happening.
00:49:31.57\00:49:32.90
Say, I want to be an
Evangelistic Team Member,
00:49:32.93\00:49:34.80
I'll be a monthly donor
00:49:34.84\00:49:36.37
and we'll put you
on the list right away.
00:49:36.40\00:49:38.14
So you can
call, you can email us
00:49:38.17\00:49:40.01
and Brian and
Mollie where should,
00:49:40.28\00:49:41.61
any particular
attention to any one.
00:49:41.64\00:49:44.35
They can send
it to my attention.
00:49:44.41\00:49:46.05
Okay.
00:49:46.08\00:49:47.45
Attention Mollie.
00:49:47.48\00:49:49.35
I hope you get
thousands of "Attention Mollies"
00:49:49.38\00:49:52.82
Or email us at mail,
00:49:52.85\00:49:54.29
just mail@3ABN.org
00:49:54.32\00:49:57.56
That will work just as well.
00:49:57.59\00:49:59.36
Call, ask for Jill or Mollie
00:49:59.39\00:50:01.80
because I'm thinking
the phone calls may be...
00:50:01.83\00:50:03.67
All right, the quickest way.
00:50:03.70\00:50:05.07
Quickest way to do it is,
write your check right now,
00:50:05.10\00:50:08.54
put it in an envelope
00:50:08.57\00:50:10.41
if you are doing a
snail mail they say,
00:50:10.44\00:50:13.31
and say I want
to be a team member.
00:50:13.34\00:50:15.61
I'm a monthly contributor.
00:50:15.64\00:50:17.15
So I want to be a
"Blessings Is on the Go."
00:50:17.18\00:50:19.51
If you call with credit cards,
you are gonna give a donation,
00:50:19.55\00:50:23.05
tell whoever
you're giving it to.
00:50:23.08\00:50:24.69
I want to be, I'm
a team member now.
00:50:24.72\00:50:26.96
So your name will
automatically go into that.
00:50:26.99\00:50:29.62
We'll automatically
put you on the list.
00:50:29.66\00:50:31.53
Start supplying the tools.
00:50:31.59\00:50:33.29
And I think accounting
has opened something else up.
00:50:33.33\00:50:35.83
Yeah, we have a
donation category
00:50:35.86\00:50:40.84
called "Blessing
on the Go Evangelism."
00:50:40.87\00:50:42.54
Oh, I didn't know. Awesome.
00:50:42.57\00:50:43.91
Just happened this morning.
00:50:43.94\00:50:45.27
You guys are quick. Awesome.
00:50:45.31\00:50:46.64
Okay, well,
scratch what I'm saying
00:50:46.68\00:50:48.58
listen to these folks.
00:50:48.61\00:50:49.94
They know.
Blessing is on the Go.
00:50:49.98\00:50:51.31
So you could go to
online, it's no problem.
00:50:51.35\00:50:52.68
You can call in.
00:50:52.71\00:50:54.05
I've gone over the call
center and they've been cued
00:50:54.08\00:50:56.75
that something coming this way
00:50:56.79\00:50:58.52
and it's going
to be an avalanche.
00:50:58.55\00:51:00.06
"The Blessing Is on the Go."
00:51:00.09\00:51:02.22
-- so "Blessing Is on the Go."
00:51:02.26\00:51:04.03
They got a link
right on the Homepage.
00:51:04.06\00:51:05.63
Click "The Blessing is
on the Go" link and donate.
00:51:05.66\00:51:08.00
Oh, I love it. Yeah.
00:51:08.03\00:51:09.40
So and around the world,
you can do it through PayPal.
00:51:09.43\00:51:12.17
Right? Anywhere in the world.
00:51:12.20\00:51:13.54
People used to say,
00:51:13.57\00:51:14.90
I'd love, they
come to GC meetings,
00:51:14.94\00:51:16.27
they still do.
00:51:16.30\00:51:17.64
"I'd love to give to 3ABN.
00:51:17.67\00:51:19.01
We could give $50 a
month or $100 a month.
00:51:19.04\00:51:21.54
But we don't know
how to get our money."
00:51:21.58\00:51:23.04
You can go to PayPal
00:51:23.08\00:51:24.41
and send money from
anywhere in the world.
00:51:24.45\00:51:25.95
That's right.
00:51:25.98\00:51:27.32
It's simple 'cause I
know, I've learned how to do it.
00:51:27.35\00:51:29.38
So if I can do
it, anyone can do it.
00:51:29.42\00:51:31.15
You know, a quick testimony.
00:51:31.19\00:51:32.89
I'm sorry to steal your moment.
00:51:32.92\00:51:34.92
But Pastor Hernan Hernandez
talked to me about Panama.
00:51:34.96\00:51:39.73
He has been visiting the prison.
00:51:39.76\00:51:41.66
He's trying to establish
00:51:41.70\00:51:43.03
a Prison Ministry in Panama
00:51:43.06\00:51:44.40
and he talked to
them about 3ABN Latino
00:51:44.43\00:51:46.63
and said, I would like to uh,
00:51:46.67\00:51:48.57
ask you to consider having a--
00:51:48.60\00:51:52.04
one of the prisons to
have 3ABN to see what an impact
00:51:52.07\00:51:55.31
it is gonna have
on your prisoners.
00:51:55.34\00:51:56.78
And he told them about
3ABN Latino and they said,
00:51:56.81\00:51:59.51
you know, this
sounds so good to us.
00:51:59.55\00:52:01.28
We don't want you
to put in one prison,
00:52:01.32\00:52:02.65
we want you to
put in all the prisons
00:52:02.68\00:52:04.02
in Panama.
00:52:04.05\00:52:05.39
Which are about
four or five of them
00:52:05.42\00:52:06.76
so the doors are opening
up and we need to go through.
00:52:06.79\00:52:09.59
You know, there is a
text, I can't remember
00:52:09.62\00:52:11.83
if it is 1 Corinthians
2:14 or 2 Corinthians 2:14
00:52:11.86\00:52:14.43
but it says this,
00:52:14.46\00:52:15.80
"Thanks be to God,
00:52:15.83\00:52:17.17
who causes us always
to triumph in victory
00:52:17.20\00:52:20.57
through Jesus Christ."
00:52:20.60\00:52:21.94
You know, one of
the easiest things
00:52:21.97\00:52:23.30
to do is get on board a train
00:52:23.34\00:52:24.67
that you know is
going some place.
00:52:24.71\00:52:26.04
And you can feel,
00:52:26.31\00:52:28.01
you can feel that
we are on board a train
00:52:28.04\00:52:30.91
that's going some place, man.
00:52:30.95\00:52:32.28
And God is in
this thing from it's,
00:52:32.31\00:52:35.02
from the bottom to the top.
00:52:35.05\00:52:36.89
So success is assured.
00:52:36.92\00:52:39.69
We are getting ready to lighten
a continent for Jesus Christ.
00:52:39.72\00:52:43.43
That is the most humbling thing
00:52:43.46\00:52:46.39
and it's so exciting,
00:52:46.43\00:52:47.76
it makes you
want to get up early
00:52:47.80\00:52:49.73
and stay up late
and work really hard
00:52:49.76\00:52:51.83
and line up behind evangelists
00:52:51.87\00:52:54.14
you know, he is--
I've known him 40 years.
00:52:54.17\00:52:56.94
I knew him when
he was a stripling
00:52:56.97\00:52:58.74
with the head of black hair.
00:52:58.77\00:53:00.84
My hair has stood on.
00:53:00.88\00:53:03.18
That's wisdom up there you know.
00:53:03.21\00:53:04.55
Yeah, okay.
00:53:04.58\00:53:05.91
Little slow on a roof
00:53:05.95\00:53:07.28
and we are excited to
see what God is going to do
00:53:07.32\00:53:09.98
through the man of God.
00:53:10.02\00:53:11.35
It's just, you
know, you can feel
00:53:11.39\00:53:12.95
you are on a cusp of something.
00:53:12.99\00:53:14.32
It's just in your bones
00:53:14.36\00:53:15.89
that God is going
to do something great.
00:53:15.92\00:53:17.69
Absolutely.
00:53:17.73\00:53:19.06
I'll tell you,
I'm looking forward to
00:53:19.09\00:53:20.43
and I'm excited
about all of you, You--
00:53:20.46\00:53:22.93
because I see the
vision that each of you have
00:53:22.96\00:53:25.83
and it's a new day,
00:53:25.87\00:53:28.30
things just
happening in the world,
00:53:28.34\00:53:30.11
I've said, Lord,
I re-commit my life
00:53:30.14\00:53:32.07
and I hope you are
doing the same too.
00:53:32.11\00:53:34.64
We're going to have to
take a break just for a moment.
00:53:34.68\00:53:36.81
Go to newsbreak,
00:53:36.85\00:53:38.18
and then we'll back
for closing thought.
00:53:38.21\00:53:39.71
Hello, I'm Jill Morikone
00:53:47.92\00:53:49.96
and as the events in our country
00:53:49.99\00:53:51.46
and around the
world change quickly,
00:53:51.49\00:53:53.73
we recognize the
signs of Jesus' soon return.
00:53:53.76\00:53:57.37
Three Angels
Broadcasting Network
00:53:57.40\00:53:59.13
was founded to reach the world
00:53:59.17\00:54:01.24
with the undiluted
Three Angels messages
00:54:01.27\00:54:03.51
of Revelation 14
00:54:03.54\00:54:05.24
which urge us to
worship our creator God
00:54:05.27\00:54:08.14
to come out of
Babylon or religious confusion
00:54:08.18\00:54:11.01
and to obey God's
laws over the laws of man.
00:54:11.05\00:54:14.48
The laws of the
world are changing quickly
00:54:14.52\00:54:16.89
and when they go
against the laws of God,
00:54:16.92\00:54:19.49
people everywhere sense
that end time events are here.
00:54:19.52\00:54:23.09
As Christians, we
realize the urgency
00:54:23.12\00:54:25.39
to fulfill the great
commission of Mark 16.
00:54:25.43\00:54:28.10
When Jesus spoke
to all of us saying,
00:54:28.13\00:54:30.30
"Go ye into all the world
00:54:30.33\00:54:32.53
and preach the
gospel to every creature."
00:54:32.57\00:54:35.64
So we've been
doubling our efforts
00:54:35.67\00:54:37.31
to proclaim the gospel
and we're starting in Europe.
00:54:37.34\00:54:40.74
The Seventh-day Adventist Church
00:54:40.78\00:54:42.11
now has some 18 million members
00:54:42.14\00:54:44.51
but while other continents
have millions of Adventists.
00:54:44.55\00:54:47.52
The entire European
continent has less than 400,000.
00:54:47.55\00:54:51.95
Already, plans are being laid
from major evangelistic series
00:54:51.99\00:54:56.02
culminating in a
two-week live broadcast
00:54:56.06\00:54:58.36
from London, England.
00:54:58.39\00:55:00.03
You'll be hearing much more
about it in the upcoming weeks.
00:55:00.06\00:55:03.20
But in order to move
forward we need your support.
00:55:03.23\00:55:07.00
We know that the
blessing is on the go
00:55:07.04\00:55:09.27
but each month only 8 to 9,000
00:55:09.30\00:55:11.87
support 3ABN financially
00:55:11.91\00:55:14.08
so won't you
pray and ask the Lord
00:55:14.11\00:55:16.11
if you should
be a monthly giver.
00:55:16.14\00:55:19.11
Of course we want to equip you
00:55:19.15\00:55:20.92
for evangelism in
your neighborhood as well.
00:55:20.95\00:55:23.39
So for those who become
Evangelism Team Members,
00:55:23.42\00:55:26.62
by giving a
monthly gift of any size,
00:55:26.65\00:55:29.09
we will send you
an evangelism tool
00:55:29.12\00:55:31.19
every month in
return, postage paid.
00:55:31.23\00:55:33.90
It may be a sermon or
Bible study on Salvation
00:55:33.93\00:55:36.70
or the Sabbath or even
a Prophesy study program.
00:55:36.73\00:55:40.07
You can invite your
neighbors to watch with you
00:55:40.10\00:55:42.74
or gift to someone else.
00:55:42.77\00:55:44.54
Anyone can participate
00:55:44.57\00:55:46.47
and your monthly support helps
3ABN's ministry tremendously.
00:55:46.51\00:55:51.01
But most
importantly it joins us together
00:55:51.05\00:55:53.21
in mission for our Lord.
00:55:53.25\00:55:55.22
We want to send you your
personalized copy of this,
00:55:55.25\00:55:57.79
Blessing Is on the Go,
00:55:57.82\00:55:59.15
Evangelism Team

00:55:59.19\00:56:01.39
to show our appreciation.
00:56:01.42\00:56:03.59
Please pray earnestly
00:56:03.63\00:56:04.96
and if the Holy
Spirit impresses you
00:56:04.99\00:56:06.33
to be a monthly supporter,
you may sign up on our website,
00:56:06.36\00:56:09.36

00:56:09.40\00:56:16.14
It's easy to sign up online.
00:56:16.17\00:56:17.87
But if you wish you may continue
00:56:17.91\00:56:19.67
to send your tax
deductible gifts to 3ABN,
00:56:19.71\00:56:22.71
Post Office Box 220,
00:56:22.74\00:56:24.48
West Frankfort, IL 62896.
00:56:24.51\00:56:27.42
Thank you for
your prayers, your love
00:56:27.45\00:56:29.42
and your financial support
and may God richly bless you.
00:56:29.45\00:56:32.79
That is good information.
00:56:42.76\00:56:44.10
Uh, we wanted to mention,
for those of you who do give,
00:56:44.13\00:56:46.80
we would like you to
give on a monthly basis
00:56:46.84\00:56:48.70
because this
initiative is going to take
00:56:48.74\00:56:50.81
ongoing support.
00:56:50.84\00:56:52.17
I want to read this
text really, really quickly
00:56:52.21\00:56:53.91
that I already referred to.
00:56:53.94\00:56:55.28
It is 2
Corinthians chapter 2: 14.
00:56:55.31\00:56:57.15
"Now thanks be to God
00:56:57.18\00:56:58.51
who always leads us
in triumphs in Christ
00:56:58.55\00:57:01.85
and through us
diffuses the fragrance
00:57:01.88\00:57:04.55
of his
knowledge in every place."
00:57:04.59\00:57:07.09
We are about to spread
00:57:07.12\00:57:08.46
the knowledge of
Christ in every place.
00:57:08.49\00:57:10.69
We are about to become
the aroma of Jesus Christ.
00:57:10.73\00:57:12.89
Come on, come on.
00:57:12.93\00:57:14.26
In the dark place,
we are about to become
00:57:14.30\00:57:15.63
the light of Jesus Christ.
00:57:15.66\00:57:17.10
All right. Come on.
00:57:17.13\00:57:18.47
We are about to become the
gift of Christ to the world.
00:57:18.50\00:57:21.20
We are going to give
Jesus to a whole continent
00:57:21.24\00:57:23.61
and men and women will be saved.
00:57:23.64\00:57:26.24
I'm sure.
00:57:26.27\00:57:27.61
Our time is fast
slipped into eternity.
00:57:27.64\00:57:29.18
Allow me to close
this on behalf of all us
00:57:29.21\00:57:30.98
to wish you both grace and peace
00:57:31.01\00:57:32.88
through our Lord and
Savior, Jesus Christ.
00:57:32.91\00:57:34.25
We'll see again soon.
00:57:34.28\00:57:35.62
Bye-bye and God bless you. Amen.
00:57:35.65\00:57:37.12
