Well, I hope you have enjoyed
00:00:01.36\00:00:03.10
watching the
Lineage videos with us today
00:00:03.13\00:00:06.03
and hearing about this project.
00:00:06.07\00:00:08.70
You know, it
occurs to me, Jasper,
00:00:08.74\00:00:10.64
that you've made
a great sacrifice.
00:00:10.67\00:00:13.11
Well, you're all
making great sacrifices
00:00:13.14\00:00:15.24
but particularly
you, you quit a paying job
00:00:15.28\00:00:18.11
and you've had to
basically support yourself
00:00:18.15\00:00:21.58
for three months over there.
00:00:21.62\00:00:23.22
Talk to us about that?
00:00:23.25\00:00:24.72
It's a little bit scary
especially for your parents.
00:00:24.75\00:00:27.96
They're like,
these guys paying you?
00:00:27.99\00:00:29.62
They didn't know.
00:00:29.66\00:00:30.99
But by the grace
of God, God provides.
00:00:31.03\00:00:34.06
I always tell young people this.
00:00:34.10\00:00:35.63
Young people are
called to finish the work.
00:00:35.66\00:00:37.63
Ellen White said in
the book of Education,
00:00:37.67\00:00:39.00
she said, with
such an army of workers,
00:00:39.03\00:00:41.54
such as our youth
rightly trained might furnish.
00:00:41.57\00:00:45.14
How soon is the
message of a crucified, risen
00:00:45.17\00:00:47.88
and soon coming Savior will
be carried to the whole world.
00:00:47.91\00:00:50.18
How soon might the end come?
00:00:50.21\00:00:51.81
Young people are not
called just to sustain the work,
00:00:51.85\00:00:54.02
we're called to
pioneer and to finish the work.
00:00:54.05\00:00:56.85
And I believe that God
has called young people.
00:00:56.89\00:00:59.59
And many of the young
people have come and say,
00:00:59.62\00:01:01.69
oh, you have
amazing testimonies.
00:01:01.72\00:01:03.06
God has provided you
visa, all the plane tickets.
00:01:03.09\00:01:05.56
Many of them want
to have that experience
00:01:05.59\00:01:07.60
but they're not
willing to go out of the boat,
00:01:07.63\00:01:09.96
just like Peter.
00:01:10.00\00:01:11.33
It was only when
Peter went out of the boat
00:01:11.37\00:01:12.70
that he was able
to walk on water.
00:01:12.73\00:01:14.10
We can tell he
was a pastor, right?
00:01:14.14\00:01:17.34
Jasper, thank you so much
00:01:17.37\00:01:19.07
for the
sacrifice that you've made.
00:01:19.11\00:01:20.74
Thank you for
stepping out of the boat.
00:01:20.78\00:01:22.81
Now, Adam, do you
have a final thought?
00:01:22.84\00:01:25.31
I just want to
encourage whoever is watching
00:01:25.35\00:01:27.55
to share it with
other young people,
00:01:27.58\00:01:30.82
share with other people.
00:01:30.85\00:01:32.19
I think that as a, as a
church we really need to utilize
00:01:32.22\00:01:37.76
the media that we have
in spreading the gospel.
00:01:37.79\00:01:40.96
And, you know, for
people who are watching,
00:01:41.00\00:01:43.37
they can go online
and view the videos
00:01:43.40\00:01:45.13
on YouTube, on Facebook or...
00:01:45.17\00:01:46.50
Instagram.
00:01:46.53\00:01:47.87
Instagram as well,
00:01:47.90\00:01:49.24
but also on, on our website
00:01:49.27\00:01:50.61
and to share the videos
that people can really find out
00:01:50.64\00:01:52.71
where they've come from.
00:01:52.74\00:01:54.08
I think when we understand
our spiritual heritage,
00:01:54.11\00:01:55.91
it gives us a great
identity in the present
00:01:55.94\00:01:58.55
and a purpose for the future.
00:01:58.58\00:01:59.91
Absolutely.
00:01:59.95\00:02:01.28
Well, thank each one of
you for being here today.
00:02:01.32\00:02:02.85
We're so glad that you
and your team have come.
00:02:02.88\00:02:05.32
And you can go to
lineagejourney.com
00:02:05.35\00:02:09.02
and see these videos.
00:02:09.06\00:02:10.83
Our prayer for you is
that the grace of our Lord
00:02:10.86\00:02:12.93
and Savior Jesus Christ,
00:02:12.96\00:02:14.30
the love of the Father
00:02:14.33\00:02:15.66
and the
fellowship of the Holy Spirit
00:02:15.70\00:02:17.03
will be with you always, amen.
