I want to spend my life
00:00:04.73\00:00:09.80
mending broken people.
00:00:10.31\00:00:14.94
I want to spend my life
00:00:15.34\00:00:20.38
removing pain.
00:00:21.22\00:00:25.79
Lord, let my words
00:00:26.25\00:00:31.23
heal a heart that hurts.
00:00:31.66\00:00:36.36
I want to spend my life
00:00:36.56\00:00:41.84
mending broken people...
00:00:42.24\00:00:46.84
I want to spend my life
00:00:47.18\00:00:52.48
mending broken people.
00:00:52.88\00:00:57.39
Greetings to my 3ABN family
00:01:07.86\00:01:10.10
and welcome to
another 3ABN Today program.
00:01:10.30\00:01:13.74
Glad that you're with us.
00:01:14.47\00:01:15.80
I'm your host. My
name is Ricky Carter
00:01:16.10\00:01:17.91
and I'm excited
about today's program.
00:01:18.31\00:01:20.74
I think you'll be
really blessed by it.
00:01:20.94\00:01:23.41
I've got the privilege
00:01:24.28\00:01:25.61
of interviewing my
friend and colleague -
00:01:25.65\00:01:30.42
colleague for over the
last 10 years I believe.
00:01:30.82\00:01:33.59
And it's been
great to get to know him.
00:01:33.79\00:01:36.32
As a matter of fact, I
want to introduce you to him
00:01:36.52\00:01:38.36
right now: Bro.
Art... Art Humphrey.
00:01:38.56\00:01:41.76
Welcome to the program, Brother.
00:01:41.96\00:01:43.30
Thank you for inviting me.
00:01:43.33\00:01:44.73
Glad to have you
here. I'm looking forward to
00:01:44.93\00:01:47.47
our program today, what
we're going to be talking about.
00:01:47.67\00:01:50.47
You know, one of
the... the program title
00:01:50.97\00:01:55.18
I thought was
really interesting.
00:01:55.38\00:01:57.21
It's Making Truth-Filled Movies.
00:01:57.41\00:02:01.82
I'm really interested in
what you're going to be sharing
00:02:02.32\00:02:04.65
with us today about that.
And I know our viewers at home
00:02:04.85\00:02:07.96
are going to be interested
and are going to be excited
00:02:08.16\00:02:10.66
about hearing this as well.
00:02:10.86\00:02:12.19
But Bro. Art, before we
actually get into the program
00:02:12.69\00:02:16.60
and interview and
talking with you more
00:02:16.80\00:02:18.73
we've got a special music
that I want to share with our
00:02:18.93\00:02:21.40
viewers. Today our special
music is by Bro. Kendol Bacchus,
00:02:21.94\00:02:27.78
and he's going to
be sharing Deep River.
00:02:28.31\00:02:31.78
Amen! Thank you, Bro. Bacchus
00:05:31.69\00:05:35.23
for using your
talents for the Lord
00:05:35.43\00:05:38.00
and playing the piano like that.
00:05:38.20\00:05:39.73
That was beautiful. I
was very blessed by that.
00:05:39.93\00:05:41.50
Wasn't that a
blessing, Bro. Art? Wonderful!
00:05:41.94\00:05:43.91
Amen! Amen!
00:05:44.11\00:05:45.47
Well, Bro. Art, now I know
that you are the film director
00:05:46.01\00:05:51.08
for 3AM Films.
00:05:51.28\00:05:54.02
And the
ministry that you're with
00:05:54.52\00:05:57.09
is Turn To Jesus Ministry.
00:05:57.29\00:06:00.36
And what I'd like to find
out is, for our viewers at home
00:06:01.19\00:06:04.99
who don't know much
about you, I want you to share
00:06:05.19\00:06:08.86
a little bit about who you are
00:06:09.06\00:06:10.97
and where you're from
00:06:11.17\00:06:14.54
and what your
ministry's all about.
00:06:14.74\00:06:17.77
Just take this time to share
a little bit with us, please.
00:06:17.97\00:06:20.14
Well there's not many people
making films in the SDA church.
00:06:21.51\00:06:24.75
There's a few of us.
00:06:25.15\00:06:26.61
And I started
actually back in the 5th grade
00:06:27.02\00:06:30.69
believe it or not
00:06:30.95\00:06:32.29
and I'm 73 years old.
00:06:32.69\00:06:34.89
I didn't start making films...
It was a journey because
00:06:35.76\00:06:38.69
I was interested in what
they were doing in Hollywood.
00:06:38.89\00:06:41.86
Hmm. And my cousin said to me:
00:06:42.06\00:06:44.10
"They're inside the TV! "
00:06:44.30\00:06:46.23
So I knew that wasn't right
00:06:48.20\00:06:51.01
because I had
seen a television empty
00:06:51.21\00:06:54.34
without any
tubes in it or anything
00:06:54.54\00:06:56.34
and I had seen kids go
inside there and try to make
00:06:56.54\00:06:59.88
TV programs and I
knew that didn't work.
00:07:00.08\00:07:02.62
So I went to prove him wrong.
00:07:04.05\00:07:06.49
So you know I started
back in the 5th grade.
00:07:06.69\00:07:08.59
The encyclopedia was
loaded with what was going on
00:07:08.79\00:07:11.99
in the filmmaking of the day.
00:07:12.19\00:07:14.36
And so I immersed myself in
that and I learned everything
00:07:14.56\00:07:18.43
I could, read
everything I could.
00:07:18.63\00:07:20.10
And that's my history.
00:07:20.50\00:07:23.00
And so I knew what
my life's work would be
00:07:23.20\00:07:25.24
and I worked in television
and films for about 55 years.
00:07:25.44\00:07:29.48
Oh wow, wow. Amen; amen.
00:07:29.68\00:07:32.18
So you're working in film
00:07:32.58\00:07:34.68
creating some... I
guess some documentaries
00:07:34.88\00:07:39.09
or some? What are you
using the films for now?
00:07:39.29\00:07:43.06
Well actually, I
worked in TV news.
00:07:43.26\00:07:45.63
That actually was a
little bit of training
00:07:45.83\00:07:50.30
but my degree is in film pro-
duction & television production.
00:07:50.50\00:07:54.84
OK. So yes...
So I worked in film
00:07:55.04\00:07:57.74
in TV news when
they were shooting film.
00:07:57.94\00:08:01.51
And we had some
interesting times. In those days
00:08:01.91\00:08:04.68
we used to send film to
New York by counter to counter.
00:08:04.88\00:08:09.45
In other words
we'd process the film,
00:08:09.65\00:08:11.12
edit it, and
we'd put it in a bag
00:08:11.32\00:08:14.06
and send it United Airlines
from one counter to the New York
00:08:14.26\00:08:18.29
counter at the
airport in New York.
00:08:18.79\00:08:20.13
So this was like a long
time ago back in the what?
00:08:20.16\00:08:23.13
Ooh! My goodness...
70's, you know. So...
00:08:23.33\00:08:26.33
Film really is a medium I
think that God gave to us -
00:08:29.50\00:08:33.38
amen - because it
works... the way that it works
00:08:33.58\00:08:37.55
is we blink and we can
remember an image. Um-hmm.
00:08:37.75\00:08:42.02
You know if you see
someone's face in a split second
00:08:42.22\00:08:44.85
you can remember.
00:08:45.05\00:08:46.62
And film is frame after
frame after frame after frame
00:08:46.82\00:08:50.56
after frame, but they're so fast
00:08:50.76\00:08:53.56
you can remember it, and
the brain puts it all together
00:08:53.76\00:08:57.20
in a sequence and
you can understand
00:08:57.40\00:09:00.17
a story that's
presented in that format.
00:09:00.37\00:09:03.07
Amen! Amen.
00:09:03.27\00:09:04.67
You know, Brother...
I totally agree with you
00:09:04.87\00:09:06.91
when you said that you
believe God-made films.
00:09:07.11\00:09:10.48
You know I think
that God used media...
00:09:10.68\00:09:14.32
He's created media to
help in finishing the work.
00:09:14.52\00:09:18.25
It's a great way that
the message can be sent
00:09:18.45\00:09:21.02
around the world with His truth.
00:09:21.22\00:09:24.99
And just like anything
else that the Lord has created
00:09:25.19\00:09:28.26
Satan has hijacked it
and messed it up. Um-hmm.
00:09:28.76\00:09:32.40
Now since God has made this
medium to share this message
00:09:32.80\00:09:39.07
tell me: do you
have a project that?
00:09:39.27\00:09:43.38
As a matter of fact, I
KNOW that you have a project
00:09:43.58\00:09:45.48
that you've worked on.
Matter of fact, I worked
00:09:45.68\00:09:47.38
on it with you in sharing
truth and that project is
00:09:47.58\00:09:51.82
The Crowning Act.
00:09:52.09\00:09:53.66
So tell our viewers at home a
little bit about this project.
00:09:54.06\00:09:56.89
OK. So I did a study
on the image to the beast.
00:09:57.09\00:10:00.60
And we can find information
about image to the beast
00:10:00.80\00:10:03.30
in Revelation though it's not
real definitive what that is.
00:10:03.50\00:10:07.70
But as Adventists, we know
that the image to the beast
00:10:08.10\00:10:12.17
is the melting together
of the church and the state.
00:10:12.37\00:10:17.45
Um-hmm. Or the
church having control
00:10:17.65\00:10:20.75
over the state. So we know
that that's going to happen.
00:10:20.95\00:10:24.02
And so I learned that
once the image to the beast was
00:10:24.22\00:10:27.56
completely formed then
would be the time for the
00:10:27.76\00:10:31.09
marvelous workings of Satan.
00:10:31.29\00:10:33.16
And that we can find...
I think an educated guess
00:10:33.56\00:10:37.37
would tell me that maybe
that's when the false Christ
00:10:37.57\00:10:40.17
may appear. So
that would be Satan.
00:10:40.37\00:10:43.87
Any false Christ that appears
would be either Satan himself
00:10:44.07\00:10:48.78
or one of his helpers. Um-hmm.
00:10:48.98\00:10:52.98
So then we came up with the
idea for The Crowning Act. OK.
00:10:53.18\00:10:56.62
And in this book
The Great Controversy
00:10:56.82\00:10:58.72
it talks about the
crowning act of Satan.
00:10:58.92\00:11:01.09
And so that would be...
That's the title that we came up
00:11:01.49\00:11:06.70
with for the film:
The Crowning Act. Amen.
00:11:06.90\00:11:08.93
And I guess you
probably have a sample
00:11:09.33\00:11:14.00
that maybe you can
show us about this?
00:11:14.20\00:11:16.17
Or want to tell us a little
bit more about this movie?
00:11:16.37\00:11:18.97
Yes, I did bring a
trailer that's on YouTube.
00:11:19.17\00:11:23.81
And the trailer is I guess
a minute sixteen seconds...
00:11:24.01\00:11:28.15
something like
that. It gives you an idea
00:11:28.35\00:11:30.25
because basically the
film is about the second coming
00:11:30.45\00:11:34.46
of Christ. There's
so much misinformation
00:11:34.66\00:11:36.99
about the second
coming of Christ.
00:11:37.19\00:11:39.23
There's this
theory and that theory.
00:11:39.43\00:11:41.83
People
disappearing on an airplane.
00:11:42.03\00:11:44.93
All sorts of ideas about
the second coming of Christ.
00:11:45.13\00:11:48.47
But the Bible gives the one way
that Christ is going to return.
00:11:48.67\00:11:52.51
Amen. And I thought it would be
important that people know that.
00:11:52.71\00:11:55.71
And we framed it with the idea
00:11:55.91\00:11:59.28
of showing the
false appearing of Christ
00:11:59.48\00:12:01.52
so the people will know
that that's on the horizon.
00:12:01.72\00:12:03.99
That's going to
happen before He comes back.
00:12:04.19\00:12:06.09
Amen... amen. And
so... And at the same time
00:12:06.29\00:12:08.82
we're able to teach the truth
about the 2nd coming of Christ.
00:12:09.02\00:12:12.63
Amen. I want to
take a look at that.
00:12:12.83\00:12:15.70
Why don't we take a
look at that video now?
00:12:15.90\00:12:18.00
Happy Birthday! Oh wow!
00:12:38.52\00:12:40.86
Thank you. What exactly
did you see this morning?
00:12:41.02\00:12:44.73
I saw a bright
light... a dazzling light.
00:12:44.93\00:12:49.16
My heart was touched.
00:12:49.36\00:12:50.70
It was wonderful! I
won't ever forget it.
00:12:51.10\00:12:53.50
I don't think that's Jesus.
00:12:54.70\00:12:56.20
I saw him with my own
eyes... it has to be Jesus.
00:12:56.40\00:12:59.07
Then maybe this time you
cannot rely on your eyes.
00:12:59.47\00:13:03.01
We need to rely on God's Word.
00:13:03.41\00:13:05.18
I wonder if there's any other
stations out there talking about
00:13:05.68\00:13:07.98
God's Word and the Bible truth?
00:13:08.18\00:13:11.05
So who is this
bright shining being
00:13:14.82\00:13:18.16
that's walking around in Israel?
00:13:18.36\00:13:20.16
Christ has come...
He's come to the earth!
00:13:20.36\00:13:22.73
Amen! That's powerful!
00:13:36.21\00:13:38.55
Well, Bro. Art,
the next question
00:13:38.95\00:13:41.15
is: "How can our viewers at
home watch this presentation. "
00:13:41.35\00:13:44.62
Well, it resides actually on:
00:13:45.02\00:13:47.46
And there's other resources
00:13:49.56\00:13:51.26
on that website also.
00:13:51.46\00:13:52.99
But you can view it there
00:13:53.19\00:13:55.36
or you can go to
my YouTube channel
00:13:55.56\00:13:57.47
which is Art
Humphrey. Just search YouTube
00:13:57.67\00:14:00.24
for Art Humphrey and
then you'll find my channel.
00:14:00.44\00:14:02.70
Amen; amen;
thank you; thank you.
00:14:02.90\00:14:04.74
All right. So
you've created this movie,
00:14:05.14\00:14:08.48
this video that
we can watch online.
00:14:08.68\00:14:11.11
Tell me, are there any
other Biblical truths films
00:14:11.31\00:14:15.18
that you've
created? Or if there are any,
00:14:15.38\00:14:18.22
how can our viewers watch those?
00:14:18.42\00:14:20.36
Before we do that, I have to
give credit where credit is due.
00:14:20.56\00:14:24.09
We worked with White Horse Media
00:14:24.49\00:14:26.29
on this film. On
The Crowning Act? Yes.
00:14:26.49\00:14:29.33
On The Crowning Act
Steve Wohlberg actually was
00:14:29.73\00:14:33.00
an executive producer and
we worked with his ministry
00:14:33.20\00:14:36.20
to create that film. Amen. And
they were very very instrumental
00:14:36.40\00:14:39.74
in getting it done. Amen.
00:14:39.94\00:14:41.61
So I thank them for that
because it really would not have
00:14:42.54\00:14:45.48
happened you know with
just me working on it. Amen.
00:14:45.68\00:14:48.55
So yep... So you asked me?
00:14:48.75\00:14:52.09
Are there any other
Biblical truth movies
00:14:52.29\00:14:54.36
that you've created
that our viewers can watch?
00:14:54.56\00:14:56.42
And if so, where
could they watch it?
00:14:56.62\00:14:58.39
OK. So... there was
a very famous TV series
00:14:58.59\00:15:02.73
that was on, and I
didn't have anything to do
00:15:02.93\00:15:05.37
so I thought: "OK,
I'll go and sign up and be
00:15:05.57\00:15:07.70
a background actor. "
00:15:07.90\00:15:09.24
I'm not going to
mention the TV series
00:15:10.14\00:15:12.41
but they were filming in Dallas.
00:15:12.61\00:15:14.04
And so I was in 5 episodes.
00:15:14.84\00:15:17.75
And I watched what they were
doing. With my whole background
00:15:17.95\00:15:21.42
in film and television I
watched what they were doing
00:15:21.62\00:15:23.75
and I thought:
"I can make films" -
00:15:23.95\00:15:27.56
um-hmm - "you know. "
00:15:27.72\00:15:29.49
So I started to work
one. The first one we did
00:15:29.89\00:15:34.66
was Scared to Death... and
that's on the YouTube channel.
00:15:34.86\00:15:37.87
OK. That is two boys
that go camping together
00:15:38.07\00:15:40.64
and one boy is
afraid of his shadow.
00:15:40.84\00:15:42.97
And the other boy
knows what the Bible says
00:15:43.17\00:15:45.17
about death, and he teaches
him over the camping trip
00:15:45.37\00:15:49.04
what the Bible teaches
about death. OK... Amen.
00:15:49.24\00:15:52.05
And then we did one
called The Quest. OK.
00:15:52.25\00:15:55.75
And I have a
clip about that one.
00:15:55.95\00:15:57.79
Let's show the clip
first and then I'll talk
00:15:57.99\00:15:59.95
in detail about it. All right.
00:16:00.16\00:16:01.49
Yes. Why don't we go
and see that clip right now?
00:16:01.66\00:16:03.43
Gonna call Patrick...
see what he's able to find.
00:16:19.87\00:16:21.84
Hello. Hey
Patrick, what's goin' on?
00:16:40.00\00:16:43.03
Hey, what's up? Not much.
00:16:43.23\00:16:44.73
Hey, I'm calling you to see
if you found that information.
00:16:44.93\00:16:47.44
Yeah, I did actually, but
00:16:47.64\00:16:48.97
I'm also creating some stuff.
00:16:49.10\00:16:50.87
Oh yeah... well,
I guess you heard.
00:16:51.07\00:16:53.04
Heard about what?
Well, the archive is closing
00:16:53.24\00:16:56.81
and just when I was trying
to get some information... What?
00:16:57.01\00:17:00.72
If you wait a minute, I
can get you inside the library
00:17:00.92\00:17:05.32
and the archive.
Just a minute Patrick.
00:17:05.52\00:17:10.39
What? I can get you inside
the library and the archive.
00:17:10.89\00:17:15.13
I know the code. Stop playing.
00:17:15.33\00:17:17.57
Hey Patrick, meet us at the
park bench in two minutes, OK?
00:17:18.60\00:17:21.17
All right. See you in a bit.
00:17:21.37\00:17:23.41
Can you do it or not?
00:17:28.91\00:17:30.25
Well, I work
part-time for Dr. McCloud.
00:17:30.85\00:17:34.12
And after working
with him for so long
00:17:35.12\00:17:37.29
I'm pretty sure I
know the codes by now.
00:17:37.49\00:17:39.42
Why did I just tell
you that? Now I'm crazy.
00:17:40.69\00:17:43.32
We're all going to get
in trouble... BIG trouble.
00:17:43.53\00:17:45.56
Just gotta find
out what's in there.
00:17:47.20\00:17:48.90
Hey Patrick,
what's up? Not much.
00:17:52.83\00:17:55.50
Well anyway, for some
reason the library archive
00:17:55.70\00:17:58.91
was quickly closed
today just when we were about
00:17:59.11\00:18:00.58
to do some research. Do
you know what's going on?
00:18:00.78\00:18:03.45
Well, what are we here for?
00:18:03.65\00:18:05.18
Well our dear friend Alex
here says he's got the code
00:18:05.38\00:18:09.18
to get into the
library into the archive.
00:18:09.38\00:18:11.65
No way man. Unh-uh.
00:18:11.85\00:18:13.66
See... what did I tell you?
00:18:13.86\00:18:15.22
Well, are you
guys with me or not?
00:18:16.32\00:18:18.79
I've got to find
out what's in there.
00:18:18.99\00:18:20.33
This isn't work for chickens.
00:18:20.83\00:18:22.76
All right. But if we get caught
00:18:24.87\00:18:29.57
buck buck buck
buck we get fried.
00:18:29.77\00:18:33.07
Let's go chicken boy.
00:18:33.38\00:18:34.84
Amen! Very interesting clip.
00:20:40.57\00:20:43.07
Well I'm Interested in
watching the whole thing
00:20:43.47\00:20:46.88
but Art, can you tell us a
little bit more about this?
00:20:47.28\00:20:49.88
OK. The Quest is based on
00:20:50.28\00:20:53.21
something that
happened in my wife's life.
00:20:53.42\00:20:56.25
She was given a gift
when she was a little girl
00:20:56.45\00:20:58.25
with the Ten Commandments on it.
00:20:58.45\00:20:59.92
And she asked her mother
00:21:00.32\00:21:02.76
"What about? Why do we
go to church on Sunday?
00:21:03.16\00:21:06.70
The commandment says the
seventh day which is Saturday. "
00:21:09.23\00:21:12.83
Her mother didn't
have an answer for her.
00:21:13.03\00:21:14.67
So what happens in this film:
00:21:14.87\00:21:17.24
a group of young people
decide that they want to study
00:21:17.64\00:21:21.01
and find out about the Sabbath.
00:21:21.21\00:21:23.21
So the clip that you just saw
00:21:23.61\00:21:26.35
they've taken it so far
to find out this information
00:21:26.55\00:21:29.78
and every door
has been shut to them.
00:21:29.98\00:21:32.82
Even the archive has
been shut suddenly. Hmm.
00:21:33.02\00:21:37.83
So they decide: "OK, we're
going to go into the library
00:21:38.03\00:21:41.86
after hours. " And one young
man knows how to get in there.
00:21:42.06\00:21:45.07
And they go in there and
they search through the archive
00:21:45.47\00:21:47.84
and they find the
information about the Sabbath.
00:21:48.04\00:21:50.01
Now the Bible says: "At
the time of their ignorance
00:21:50.21\00:21:54.18
God winked at them. "
00:21:54.34\00:21:55.68
So they didn't
know they were breaking
00:21:55.71\00:21:57.21
another commandment to
find out information about
00:21:57.41\00:21:59.91
another commandment.
Right... right... right.
00:22:00.12\00:22:01.75
So God winks at that, you know.
00:22:01.95\00:22:04.25
But truth is so important
00:22:04.45\00:22:06.45
that people that they
just don't really know.
00:22:06.65\00:22:08.72
They're going to be anxious
and they're going to do anything
00:22:08.92\00:22:11.33
that they can to find
out what the truth is. Amen.
00:22:11.53\00:22:14.26
That's what we're illustrating
in that clip that you just saw.
00:22:14.46\00:22:17.70
OK... OK. Now is there
another film that you've created
00:22:17.90\00:22:21.27
that you can tell us about?
00:22:21.47\00:22:22.80
Let's see here...
Oh, The Creation. Yes!
00:22:22.84\00:22:25.71
The Creation. The
Creation was released in 2010
00:22:25.91\00:22:29.31
and maybe some of
the viewers saw that
00:22:29.51\00:22:31.35
because we came on with
Danny Shelton and talked about
00:22:31.55\00:22:34.92
The Creation just
before we released it.
00:22:35.12\00:22:37.45
And that film was
seen around the world
00:22:37.95\00:22:42.02
because it was on Borders.com;
00:22:42.22\00:22:46.56
it was on Walmart.com;
00:22:46.76\00:22:48.63
it was distributed by Victory
Multimedia in California.
00:22:48.83\00:22:53.13
It was distributed by
Pacific Press Publishing.
00:22:53.34\00:22:57.91
It was distributed in
South Africa by a media company
00:22:58.11\00:23:02.14
in South Africa. And so I
thought before I released it
00:23:02.34\00:23:06.31
"Oh, all of these people
are going to see it. I wonder
00:23:06.51\00:23:10.15
if the Sabbath is
too stern and too strict?
00:23:10.35\00:23:15.56
Maybe I should soften it. "
00:23:15.76\00:23:18.16
Soften it? Yeah.
00:23:18.36\00:23:21.33
You can do all sorts
of things in editing. OK.
00:23:21.53\00:23:25.20
So I thought:
"Maybe I should soften it
00:23:25.40\00:23:27.77
because it's going to go
wide. Maybe somebody's going to
00:23:27.97\00:23:30.87
come after me! " So, no,
I didn't have that thought.
00:23:31.07\00:23:34.14
But I thought about it
for three weeks and I thought:
00:23:34.54\00:23:36.61
"OK, I need to buy a hard
drive and back up everything
00:23:36.81\00:23:39.85
and then I'll get to
work on re-editing some of the
00:23:40.05\00:23:45.09
portions that I
thought should be softened. "
00:23:45.29\00:23:47.72
So I put my hard drive in
00:23:48.12\00:23:50.19
I click, click, click
looked through and went down
00:23:50.39\00:23:53.36
and you know what?
What? God did not want me to
00:23:53.56\00:23:57.10
soften that film. Amen... amen.
00:23:57.30\00:23:59.73
He hid from my eyes
00:24:01.10\00:24:03.07
the correct video
that I needed to format
00:24:05.14\00:24:08.44
and I formatted the wrong one
00:24:08.64\00:24:12.45
with all of my
original camera footage -
00:24:12.65\00:24:15.58
oh wow - and everything.
But I had mastered the film.
00:24:15.78\00:24:19.79
OK, man. So I had it mastered
00:24:19.99\00:24:22.06
but everything was blown
away and I got the message.
00:24:22.46\00:24:26.43
I got it. "Lord, I GET IT. "
00:24:26.63\00:24:28.96
No softening? No
softening. Praise the Lord!
00:24:29.16\00:24:31.47
So after that, I
decided: "OK, this is a story
00:24:31.87\00:24:36.00
the Lord gave me so
that I can tell other people
00:24:36.20\00:24:38.51
'Do not try to
soften God's message - Amen!
00:24:38.71\00:24:42.68
because He will
let you know. ' " Amen!
00:24:42.88\00:24:44.85
Well, with that
we've got another clip
00:24:45.25\00:24:47.98
about The Creation.
Want to show you right now.
00:24:48.18\00:24:50.95
I started off believing
00:24:53.46\00:24:54.79
evolution was the
most sensible thing.
00:24:54.82\00:24:56.96
I just assumed it was true.
00:24:57.23\00:24:58.79
We really have to go on faith
00:25:01.33\00:25:03.03
when it comes to where
we came from originally.
00:25:03.23\00:25:05.23
I think what God
inspired Moses to do
00:25:05.43\00:25:08.50
was write a record
that is corrective.
00:25:08.70\00:25:11.87
And under the
guiding hand of inspiration
00:25:12.07\00:25:14.28
Moses sat down and
wrote us an accurate,
00:25:14.44\00:25:17.48
beautiful, poetic description
00:25:17.68\00:25:20.35
of how the universe began.
00:25:20.55\00:25:22.78
In six days the
great work of creation
00:25:22.98\00:25:25.65
had been accomplished
00:25:25.85\00:25:27.59
and God rested
on the seventh day
00:25:27.79\00:25:30.46
from all His work
which He had made.
00:25:30.66\00:25:32.56
If you can fathom someone taking
00:25:56.65\00:26:00.46
an alphabet - the
American alphabet A to Z -
00:26:00.66\00:26:06.29
and having one
trillion of each alphabet:
00:26:06.49\00:26:10.43
a trillion of A,
a trillion B's...
00:26:10.63\00:26:14.24
and piling up a
mountain of alphabets
00:26:14.44\00:26:20.18
like as tall as Mt.
Everest of alphabets
00:26:20.38\00:26:23.98
and then placing a bomb
00:26:24.18\00:26:26.92
beneath this large
mountain of alphabet
00:26:27.12\00:26:29.85
and blowing up the alphabet
00:26:30.05\00:26:32.15
and they just go
blowing up into the sky
00:26:32.35\00:26:34.09
and the alphabets all fall down
into the Webster's dictionary
00:26:34.29\00:26:38.26
from A to Z in
alphabetical order
00:26:38.46\00:26:41.73
with the description and
definition of every word...
00:26:41.93\00:26:44.67
If you can believe
something of that nature,
00:26:44.87\00:26:46.84
then you can believe
in the Big Bang Theory.
00:26:47.04\00:26:50.17
That's how
impossible it is in my mind.
00:26:50.57\00:26:53.38
The Mysteries of
the visible universe,
00:26:59.65\00:27:01.58
the wondrous works of Him
which is perfect in knowledge.
00:27:01.78\00:27:05.79
God's glory in the heavens.
00:27:07.19\00:27:09.06
The innumerable worlds in
their orderly revolutions.
00:27:09.26\00:27:12.63
He balances the clouds.
00:27:13.23\00:27:15.43
The mysteries of light
and sound, of day and night,
00:27:16.50\00:27:19.70
all were open to the
study of our first parents.
00:27:20.10\00:27:23.91
On every leaf of the forest
or stone of the mountains,
00:27:25.94\00:27:28.64
in every shining star
in earth and air and sky
00:27:28.84\00:27:32.35
God's name was written.
00:27:32.55\00:27:35.15
The order and
harmony of creation
00:27:35.55\00:27:38.19
spoke to them of
infinite wisdom and power.
00:27:38.39\00:27:41.42
They were ever
discovering some attraction
00:27:41.62\00:27:44.59
that filled their
hearts with deeper love
00:27:44.79\00:27:46.80
and called forth fresh
expressions of gratitude.
00:27:47.00\00:27:50.30
So long as they
remained loyal to the divine law
00:27:50.80\00:27:53.60
their capacity to
know, to enjoy, and love
00:27:53.80\00:27:57.81
would continually increase.
00:27:58.01\00:28:00.08
They would be constantly gain-
ing new treasures of knowledge,
00:28:00.28\00:28:03.31
discovering fresh
springs of happiness,
00:28:03.51\00:28:05.78
and obtaining clearer
and yet clearer conceptions
00:28:05.98\00:28:09.42
of the immeasurable
unfailing love of God.
00:28:09.62\00:28:13.46
Amen... Amen!
00:28:44.89\00:28:47.39
Well, Brother Art,
you shared that you got
00:28:47.89\00:28:51.26
so far we've seen three
Bible-based, Biblical truth
00:28:51.46\00:28:56.93
videos, movies,
films that you created:
00:28:57.13\00:29:00.04
The Crowning Act, The Quest,
00:29:00.24\00:29:03.47
and The Creation.
00:29:03.67\00:29:05.71
So tell me: do you have
any other Biblical truth films
00:29:06.54\00:29:11.45
that you're in the
process of creating?
00:29:11.65\00:29:13.88
I'm glad you
asked that question.
00:29:14.38\00:29:16.28
Well... you know what?
00:29:19.65\00:29:21.29
I take my cue
probably from the news media.
00:29:22.19\00:29:27.20
So recently there was an article
00:29:28.10\00:29:30.80
on CNN. The
title of the article is
00:29:31.00\00:29:35.97
I read that article.
00:29:44.05\00:29:45.38
So the essence of
this article is that
00:29:46.31\00:29:50.22
people are seeing something
they think are their dead
00:29:53.56\00:29:57.16
loved ones coming
back and talking to them
00:29:57.36\00:30:00.26
at the foot of the bed or
touching them on the shoulder
00:30:00.46\00:30:04.07
or some essence of
perfume that they smell
00:30:04.47\00:30:08.77
or something like that.
00:30:09.17\00:30:10.74
And this has happened
at 9/11 by the thousands,
00:30:10.94\00:30:15.91
the tsunami in Asia,
00:30:17.51\00:30:20.78
and other instances where
there are large disasters.
00:30:21.18\00:30:24.69
So I thought: "OK, this
sounds like another film
00:30:24.89\00:30:27.96
because someone had
asked me after we finished
00:30:28.16\00:30:30.43
The Crowning Act:
"Art, you've gotta do one
00:30:30.63\00:30:32.49
on the state of the dead. "
00:30:32.69\00:30:34.06
Are the dead really dead?
00:30:34.26\00:30:36.63
Because Spiritualism
says: "There is no death;
00:30:36.83\00:30:41.00
there are no dead. "
00:30:41.20\00:30:43.20
That's a lie! Amen.
00:30:43.41\00:30:44.74
You know the first lie that
Satan told in the Garden of Eden
00:30:44.87\00:30:48.38
"You won't surely
die... that's a lie. "
00:30:48.78\00:30:53.05
What is death?
Recently I had a procedure done.
00:30:53.25\00:30:55.95
They put me to sleep.
It's a dreamless sleep.
00:30:56.15\00:30:59.42
Death is a dreamless sleep.
00:30:59.62\00:31:01.99
I didn't die. They did
the procedure; I'm here today.
00:31:02.19\00:31:05.73
Death... Jesus
taught death as a sleep.
00:31:06.76\00:31:11.93
Amen. So if you
go to I think it's
00:31:12.13\00:31:14.87
Luke chapter 11 is it?
00:31:15.07\00:31:16.74
where Lazarus was resurrected.
00:31:16.94\00:31:19.31
Just read that chapter
00:31:19.51\00:31:21.21
and you will learn about
death as a sleep. Amen... amen.
00:31:21.41\00:31:25.38
So you've made a
movie about that? Oh yeah.
00:31:25.58\00:31:27.78
So at the beginning of COVID
00:31:28.92\00:31:30.59
the hospitals were
terrified of this disease
00:31:30.99\00:31:33.92
so they would not allow
people's relatives to come
00:31:34.32\00:31:37.69
and visit them in the hospital.
00:31:37.89\00:31:39.33
So people were dying
and they didn't get a chance
00:31:39.73\00:31:43.57
to see their
relatives before they died.
00:31:43.77\00:31:47.64
And their relatives were
just very upset about this
00:31:48.07\00:31:51.47
so we named the
film: I Never Said Goodbye.
00:31:51.67\00:31:55.54
And we have the
website INeverSaidGoodbye.net
00:31:55.74\00:31:58.71
OK. And I was in Walmart
00:31:59.11\00:32:01.85
and I saw a friend that
had seen The Crowning Act.
00:32:02.05\00:32:06.12
And she said: "Are you
doing any more movies? "
00:32:06.32\00:32:08.02
And I said: "Yes, we're doing
one on the state of the dead
00:32:08.42\00:32:11.36
and we call it I
Never Said Goodbye.
00:32:11.56\00:32:13.96
She said: "Oh,
where's my checkbook? "
00:32:14.16\00:32:16.16
Oh wow. She was
right in the checkout line
00:32:16.36\00:32:19.13
in Walmart doing
her self-checkout
00:32:19.33\00:32:21.50
and she was looking for her
checkbook to write me a check
00:32:21.70\00:32:23.84
to help with the
film. Wow! Praise God!
00:32:24.04\00:32:26.74
Praise God. So you've created
some of it already I presume.
00:32:27.61\00:32:31.25
Yes. And we have a clip of
that, right? Vb Yes, we do.
00:32:31.45\00:32:34.02
Why don't we take a
look at that right now?
00:32:34.22\00:32:35.55
I never said goodbye.
00:32:52.60\00:32:55.67
Every morning he would eat
breakfast with us, and he would
00:33:04.91\00:33:07.48
sit right here.
00:33:07.68\00:33:09.85
My daddy would want
us to keep on living.
00:33:11.15\00:33:13.36
Oh, oh... you're
going to school today
00:33:17.83\00:33:22.86
and I'm going to work.
00:33:23.06\00:33:24.47
Besides he's watching over us.
00:33:27.00\00:33:29.97
Recently another major
news network ran a story
00:33:30.47\00:33:33.27
about ADCs. It stands for
00:33:33.48\00:33:35.74
after death communications.
00:33:35.94\00:33:38.15
No way! Yeah, really.
00:33:38.35\00:33:40.35
Listen to this: when
someone dies it turns out
00:33:40.55\00:33:43.18
that it may not
be the end after all.
00:33:43.39\00:33:45.69
Hmm. What do you mean
it may not be the end?
00:33:45.89\00:33:47.72
Well, when a
person loses a loved one
00:33:48.12\00:33:50.36
that deceased
friend or family member
00:33:50.56\00:33:52.59
could come back and visit them
00:33:52.79\00:33:54.30
and thus an after
death communication occurs.
00:33:54.50\00:33:57.90
I just don't think
people actually come back.
00:33:58.10\00:34:01.80
I know this sounds crazy
00:34:02.00\00:34:03.74
but my friend's
grandmother passed away
00:34:03.94\00:34:06.34
a couple of months
ago and just recently
00:34:06.54\00:34:10.01
she came back
because she really believes
00:34:10.21\00:34:13.95
that it was her grandma.
00:34:14.15\00:34:15.58
If this is true, I
want to see it for myself.
00:34:16.72\00:34:20.96
You would? Well there's a
name for these communications.
00:34:21.16\00:34:24.66
It's called
spiritualism. Spiritualism? Huh!
00:34:24.86\00:34:28.56
Think that has anything
to do with... I don't know...
00:34:28.96\00:34:31.90
evil spirits? Laughter.
00:34:32.10\00:34:35.24
Evil spirits or not, it
would appear that the evidence
00:34:35.64\00:34:38.81
points to the fact that ADCs
are indeed plentiful and real.
00:34:39.01\00:34:43.85
Uh! David?
00:34:54.49\00:34:59.63
David?
00:35:07.90\00:35:09.47
But the past few days
00:35:10.21\00:35:11.64
she's actually
been kind of happy.
00:35:12.37\00:35:14.38
She's been seeing my dad.
00:35:14.78\00:35:16.58
What?
00:35:20.85\00:35:22.28
Tonight's Bible study
is going to be about death.
00:35:25.25\00:35:28.39
Are the dead really dead?
00:35:28.79\00:35:31.19
Awesome. Thanks, Alex.
00:35:32.09\00:35:33.43
Tonight we're going to look thru
several texts from the Bible
00:35:34.06\00:35:36.30
and then line upon
line, precept upon precept,
00:35:36.50\00:35:39.40
we will
dismantle and look behind
00:35:39.60\00:35:41.70
this dark curtain
that they call death.
00:35:41.90\00:35:45.14
So before we begin I
just want to show you guys
00:35:45.34\00:35:47.04
a quick video that my
friend Dr. Eric Walsh sent me.
00:35:47.24\00:35:49.84
One of the most difficult
things about being a physician
00:35:50.25\00:35:53.15
is having to deal
with the topic of death.
00:35:53.35\00:35:56.18
Working in intensive care units
00:35:56.58\00:35:58.52
and having people pass away
00:35:58.72\00:36:00.26
one of the most difficult
questions we get from family
00:36:00.46\00:36:02.92
members is: "Am I going
to see my loved one again? "
00:36:03.12\00:36:05.69
We know that in Ecclesiastes
chapter 9 verse 5 and 6
00:36:05.89\00:36:09.46
it says that: "The
living know they shall die
00:36:09.66\00:36:11.30
but the dead
don't know anything. "
00:36:11.50\00:36:13.07
This is reiterated
00:36:13.27\00:36:14.60
in what we find
in medical science.
00:36:14.80\00:36:17.24
Death really is
the final chapter.
00:36:17.64\00:36:19.61
Tonight... and I
promise when you leave here
00:36:21.61\00:36:25.01
you will have the
answers directly from God's Word
00:36:25.21\00:36:27.52
to three very
important questions.
00:36:27.72\00:36:29.72
1. Are the dead really dead?
00:36:29.92\00:36:32.19
2. What about a resurrection?
00:36:32.69\00:36:35.12
And 3. Who and what are ghosts?
00:36:35.52\00:36:38.99
May his family be comforted
00:36:39.76\00:36:41.76
in knowing that he is
now watching over them.
00:36:42.36\00:36:45.17
Amen.
00:36:46.94\00:36:48.57
Wow! Wow!
00:36:56.44\00:36:58.28
Bro. Art, this is a
heavy topic and I'm glad
00:36:58.91\00:37:01.58
that you are getting a movie out
00:37:01.78\00:37:05.65
to the whole world
so they can see this
00:37:05.85\00:37:07.36
and know the truth about
what happens when you die.
00:37:07.56\00:37:09.82
This is so needed now.
00:37:10.03\00:37:12.56
So is there any more you
can tell us about this film?
00:37:12.76\00:37:16.13
Well, what you just saw
00:37:16.97\00:37:18.50
basically is a small handful
of people that got together
00:37:18.70\00:37:24.47
to make the trailers so
that we could raise money
00:37:24.67\00:37:27.28
for the film. Hmm.
00:37:27.48\00:37:29.04
Films are not
generally made that way.
00:37:29.24\00:37:30.91
And of course, my film was made
that way because I don't have
00:37:31.31\00:37:33.88
a lot of money for
300 people on a crew.
00:37:34.08\00:37:37.42
You know. So we got together
00:37:37.62\00:37:42.12
and we said: "We need
something for people to see
00:37:42.32\00:37:44.59
so maybe we can go on 3ABN. "
00:37:44.79\00:37:47.66
I had no idea
I'd be sitting here.
00:37:47.86\00:37:49.66
You know? That was
like: "What? Go to 3ABN? "
00:37:49.86\00:37:52.83
So anyway...
00:37:53.03\00:37:54.90
God arranged that.
00:37:55.30\00:37:56.91
So yeah...
00:37:57.11\00:37:59.27
So as we work
towards making this film
00:38:01.08\00:38:04.65
we get ideas. The
script is not even complete yet
00:38:04.85\00:38:09.35
though we are
going to make this film.
00:38:09.55\00:38:11.65
We're going to raise the money
& we're going to make the film.
00:38:11.85\00:38:13.76
God has opened
the way all the way
00:38:13.96\00:38:16.49
for us to do this project. Amen.
00:38:16.69\00:38:18.43
So you share this with us
- these different topics -
00:38:18.63\00:38:24.53
on the movie
that you're creating.
00:38:24.73\00:38:27.40
But what's the
drive? What's causing you
00:38:27.80\00:38:32.11
to make these
Biblical truth films?
00:38:32.31\00:38:36.24
OK... truth has
never been popular
00:38:37.35\00:38:40.98
and never will
be popular. Um-hmm.
00:38:41.18\00:38:43.55
These films do not make money.
00:38:43.75\00:38:46.02
I don't make
money from these films.
00:38:46.22\00:38:48.06
As a matter of fact,
when we raise the money
00:38:48.26\00:38:50.49
that we want to make this film
00:38:50.69\00:38:52.66
most of it is going to
pay for this, for that.
00:38:53.63\00:38:56.56
Travel and for a grip
truck. I need a grip truck
00:38:56.77\00:39:00.34
with lights in it
and also for riggings.
00:39:00.54\00:39:03.10
A dolly and all that.
00:39:03.30\00:39:04.81
Two grips that we're
going to have to pay for.
00:39:05.01\00:39:06.78
Three, four grips.
00:39:06.98\00:39:08.31
And also my director of
photography is going to fly in
00:39:08.34\00:39:13.98
from California
for a five-day shoot.
00:39:14.18\00:39:16.52
We need a location
shoot for the funeral
00:39:16.72\00:39:20.22
with 30 or so people there
as participant background actors
00:39:20.42\00:39:26.36
in a live funeral
situation you know.
00:39:26.56\00:39:29.23
Casket... lowering
device... limousines.
00:39:29.43\00:39:33.97
All of that stuff
we have to pay for
00:39:34.17\00:39:35.84
to make it realistic so
that the people watching this
00:39:36.04\00:39:40.34
will understand that
this issue is serious enough
00:39:40.54\00:39:45.95
for us to make a film about it
00:39:46.15\00:39:47.88
and go through all of
this trouble to tell the story.
00:39:48.08\00:39:52.35
So what happens
actually: Laura, our character,
00:39:52.55\00:39:55.32
sees the morning show
every morning and she gets
00:39:55.52\00:39:58.76
drawn into spiritualism.
00:39:58.96\00:40:01.80
As you notice, her
daughter left her lunch there
00:40:02.00\00:40:05.30
and she had to rush
out to catch up with her
00:40:05.50\00:40:07.94
to give her lunch bag to her.
00:40:08.14\00:40:10.37
So she did not hear
the part about spiritualism
00:40:10.57\00:40:13.98
and she missed the
part about evil spirits.
00:40:14.38\00:40:17.78
Hmm. So she came
back in on the tail end
00:40:17.98\00:40:21.98
and turns the TV
off you know, so...
00:40:22.75\00:40:25.42
She gets drawn into it
because she loves her husband
00:40:25.82\00:40:28.52
so much - she
misses him so much -
00:40:28.72\00:40:30.36
that she wants to see him again.
00:40:30.56\00:40:32.16
So immediately Satan starts
in appearing as her husband.
00:40:32.36\00:40:37.43
Umm-hmm.
00:40:37.63\00:40:39.20
Yeah, I can see
how that would be...
00:40:39.40\00:40:40.77
it's really important
that our viewers or even our
00:40:40.97\00:40:44.61
our viewers' family
members would need to see this.
00:40:44.81\00:40:49.04
Need to know this truth.
00:40:49.24\00:40:51.41
Which reminds me:
so besides watching
00:40:51.81\00:40:57.25
these films, what
else can our viewers...
00:40:57.45\00:41:02.62
what can they do with them?
00:41:02.82\00:41:04.26
Is there a way that
they can share them perhaps?
00:41:04.46\00:41:07.76
Well yes, these
are sharing films
00:41:07.96\00:41:09.30
and they're going to be
free of charge on YouTube
00:41:09.46\00:41:12.40
or they might like for instance
00:41:12.63\00:41:14.64
I Never Said Goodbye will
reside on YouTube - um-hmm -
00:41:14.84\00:41:17.24
but we'll have a
website INeverSaidGoodbye.net
00:41:17.44\00:41:20.54
And so you can go there;
00:41:20.74\00:41:22.74
share the link
00:41:22.94\00:41:24.91
with your friends.
00:41:25.18\00:41:26.51
You know, they'll share it.
00:41:26.65\00:41:28.05
It's almost like it's going to
00:41:28.25\00:41:29.88
go viral if people are
that interested in the topic.
00:41:30.09\00:41:33.62
And you know what? Something
00:41:33.82\00:41:35.59
happened recently with
the United States Congress
00:41:35.79\00:41:38.49
and with the Senate. I'm
not sure quite what happened
00:41:38.69\00:41:42.83
but they had the
first ever hearing on UFOs.
00:41:43.23\00:41:47.37
And I know from
studying the Bible
00:41:47.57\00:41:50.01
that UFOs and spiritualism is
almost... it's the same thing.
00:41:50.21\00:41:55.98
Yes, yes. Why don't the aliens
that are appearing in these
00:41:56.28\00:42:00.12
spaceships and
taking people on board
00:42:00.32\00:42:02.32
and dissecting them
and then dropping them off
00:42:02.52\00:42:04.99
why don't they to
Washington, D.C., and say
00:42:05.19\00:42:07.66
"Take me to your leader?
" Why don't they do that?
00:42:07.82\00:42:09.76
Um-hmm. Why are they in secret?
00:42:10.16\00:42:12.39
Why are they doing
everything in secret?
00:42:12.59\00:42:14.20
I'll tell you the reason why.
00:42:14.40\00:42:15.73
Because it's Satan and his
imps or his helpers doing this.
00:42:15.86\00:42:20.84
And if he goes in the public
00:42:21.04\00:42:23.64
somebody will be there
that will pull the wool off.
00:42:23.84\00:42:26.81
"In Jesus' name get behind
me! " Poof... they're gone.
00:42:27.01\00:42:30.75
That will expose them.
00:42:30.95\00:42:32.61
So that's why he's doing
it in secret I believe anyway.
00:42:33.01\00:42:36.28
That's my opinion. Yes... yes.
00:42:36.48\00:42:38.25
Well I'm sure that there are
some viewers at home who are...
00:42:39.32\00:42:42.42
who are watching today's program
00:42:42.62\00:42:44.79
and they're going to want to
know is there any way they can
00:42:44.99\00:42:49.60
either partner with you
or help with this ministry.
00:42:50.00\00:42:54.67
What can you share
with them based on that?
00:42:54.87\00:42:58.67
Well it's going to take a
lot of people to raise $50,000.
00:42:59.84\00:43:02.58
And that's chunk
change. They spend millions
00:43:02.78\00:43:05.98
on Hollywood movies, you know.
00:43:06.18\00:43:08.55
Can we just raise $50,000
for a film that tells the truth
00:43:08.75\00:43:13.96
about these ADCs:
after death communications?
00:43:14.16\00:43:17.99
I think we can. With
a whole lot of people
00:43:18.19\00:43:20.50
pooling their money together
we can raise $50,000 easily.
00:43:20.70\00:43:24.07
Most of that money
is going to be used for
00:43:24.27\00:43:27.54
promoting the
film on the Internet -
00:43:27.74\00:43:31.17
hmm - and paying for the website
00:43:31.37\00:43:33.88
and those kinds of
things. Because the website
00:43:34.08\00:43:36.54
or the Internet has
gotten to the place now
00:43:36.75\00:43:39.65
that if you want people to see
your things that you're doing
00:43:39.85\00:43:43.08
you have to advertise.
00:43:43.28\00:43:45.32
Right. That's the way
the Internet works right now.
00:43:45.52\00:43:47.42
Right, right. It used to
be you just put it out there
00:43:47.62\00:43:50.26
and organically
people would just click on it
00:43:50.46\00:43:53.09
and it would
just spread like that.
00:43:53.29\00:43:55.30
But that's not the case anymore.
00:43:55.50\00:43:56.97
Right, right. So
you need some of these
00:43:57.17\00:43:59.77
viewers at home to
participate with you
00:43:59.97\00:44:02.64
in sharing it and financially.
00:44:02.84\00:44:06.17
And how about any... do
you need any editors or any
00:44:06.37\00:44:09.68
grips or any crew to work
with you on a project like this?
00:44:09.88\00:44:14.98
That's a thought.
00:44:15.92\00:44:17.62
Yeah. I think we're
covered in that area. OK, OK.
00:44:17.82\00:44:21.52
But if anybody
wants to contact me
00:44:21.72\00:44:24.03
I'll talk to them
about it. Amen... amen.
00:44:24.23\00:44:26.49
But we're on a steady track
00:44:26.70\00:44:30.73
to work on the film
and finish it. It says
00:44:30.93\00:44:33.94
coming the summer of 2022.
00:44:34.14\00:44:36.07
I think we might miss that
00:44:36.27\00:44:37.84
but we're going to
get the film out anyway.
00:44:38.04\00:44:39.44
Maybe it's the Fall, but we're
going to do the film anyway.
00:44:39.64\00:44:43.18
So I had some things
to happen in my computer
00:44:43.38\00:44:47.18
that hindered me from
doing some of the things
00:44:47.38\00:44:49.88
that I wanted to
bring on this program.
00:44:50.09\00:44:51.92
But I know who's
behind that, too.
00:44:52.12\00:44:55.12
Um-hmm. So it's OK... we're
going to make the film anyway.
00:44:55.32\00:44:58.89
Right, right, yeah.
00:44:59.09\00:45:00.50
I was doing Scared to
Death and I called my friend.
00:45:00.70\00:45:06.13
I said: "Let's go out there
and shoot the title sequence. "
00:45:06.33\00:45:09.07
It was 7 o'clock in the
morning; the sun was coming up.
00:45:09.27\00:45:12.11
It was dark when I called him.
00:45:12.31\00:45:13.84
He says: "I can't go. "
00:45:14.04\00:45:15.71
So I went out by
myself into the cemetery...
00:45:15.91\00:45:18.45
And you can see this
one on my YouTube channel.
00:45:18.65\00:45:20.62
Scared to Death...
that's the title of the film.
00:45:20.82\00:45:22.42
I went out there by
myself with my camera.
00:45:22.72\00:45:25.35
And that's another film
Satan did not want me to make.
00:45:25.75\00:45:28.82
That's OK... I'm
working for God. Amen!
00:45:29.02\00:45:32.19
These films are God's
message and I WILL DO THEM
00:45:32.39\00:45:36.80
with God's help. Amen.
00:45:37.00\00:45:39.07
So I'm putting the
tripod away in the trunk
00:45:39.27\00:45:42.27
of the car and
there's nobody around.
00:45:42.47\00:45:45.57
I shot the film
that I needed to get.
00:45:45.77\00:45:48.51
All of a sudden behind me -
00:45:48.91\00:45:51.18
I'm talking about
right behind me right here -
00:45:51.38\00:45:54.92
I hear this "grrrr"
like a dog is going to rip me
00:45:55.12\00:45:59.49
to shreds, you know.
00:45:59.69\00:46:01.92
I turn around and I
turn around that way
00:46:02.12\00:46:04.73
and I go around the car
and there's nothing. Hmm.
00:46:04.93\00:46:07.86
So I said: "OK... that's OK.
I'm makin' this film anyway. "
00:46:08.26\00:46:12.63
So if we are determined
and God gives us the strength
00:46:12.83\00:46:18.54
to do His work and
His will we will prevail.
00:46:18.74\00:46:22.61
So Scared to Death was released.
00:46:22.81\00:46:26.21
It was seen everywhere.
It helped kids understand
00:46:26.41\00:46:29.05
the state of the dead. So
the same thing will happen
00:46:29.25\00:46:31.85
with I Never Said Goodbye.
00:46:32.05\00:46:33.62
Amen. We'll make
that film. Amen; amen.
00:46:33.82\00:46:36.66
Wow, Bro. Art!
00:46:37.33\00:46:39.19
I can see that
the Lord is using you
00:46:39.39\00:46:43.06
to finish the work.
00:46:43.26\00:46:46.40
You can look at it as
00:46:46.80\00:46:49.47
you have the privilege
00:46:49.67\00:46:51.54
of working in the vineyard.
00:46:51.74\00:46:55.78
Yes. You know what?
00:46:55.98\00:46:57.51
Tell me. It just brought
another thought to my mind.
00:46:57.71\00:47:00.22
OK. So... we do all
of these great things.
00:47:00.42\00:47:03.52
We have 3ABN; we have wonderful
things that we're doing
00:47:03.72\00:47:07.12
on a large scale... you know
we're making movies and all that
00:47:07.32\00:47:10.23
that gets a lot of attention
00:47:10.43\00:47:11.76
but you know what?
God wants us to work
00:47:11.93\00:47:13.63
on an individual
basis with people also.
00:47:13.83\00:47:16.63
So you know what? I
think I mentioned this earlier.
00:47:16.83\00:47:18.73
But this is what I do.
00:47:19.13\00:47:21.20
My storylines are in this
book The Great Controversy.
00:47:21.40\00:47:25.34
And if you have
this book on your shelf,
00:47:25.54\00:47:27.48
it's time to take
it down and read it.
00:47:27.88\00:47:29.81
And I brought this one
for you so that you can...
00:47:30.01\00:47:32.55
I'm going to leave
it in Southern Illinois
00:47:32.75\00:47:34.62
and you can give it to
your neighbor or whatever.
00:47:34.82\00:47:36.48
Yeah. Just allow me to go across
00:47:36.69\00:47:39.19
and hand it over to
you. Great! Thank you.
00:47:39.39\00:47:41.69
Thank you so much!
00:47:41.89\00:47:43.22
This is a great book:
The Great Controversy.
00:47:43.26\00:47:45.53
I do have one of these at home;
I've passed them out before.
00:47:45.93\00:47:49.30
And I encourage you at home
to do the same thing as well.
00:47:49.70\00:47:52.93
We need to get this
truth-filled literature out
00:47:53.13\00:47:56.74
to the masses.
And one of the ways
00:47:56.94\00:47:59.44
that we can do that:
not just only handing out
00:47:59.64\00:48:02.21
literature but we can also share
00:48:02.41\00:48:05.71
these movies like what
Bro. Art is telling us about.
00:48:05.91\00:48:10.42
And it's a
privilege to be a part
00:48:10.62\00:48:14.02
of finishing the
work. This is vineyard work.
00:48:14.22\00:48:17.73
And we have an opportunity
00:48:17.93\00:48:20.30
to be able to share
this with the world.
00:48:20.50\00:48:22.36
Thank you so much, Bro.
Art, for using your talent
00:48:22.56\00:48:25.33
for the Lord the way
that you're doing it now.
00:48:25.53\00:48:28.10
You know, I've thought about how
00:48:28.30\00:48:30.94
in my life the Lord
has given me a talent
00:48:31.34\00:48:35.08
of creating
graphics and motion graphics
00:48:35.28\00:48:40.05
and video editing and music.
00:48:40.25\00:48:43.18
And I've been able
to take those talents
00:48:43.39\00:48:48.39
and now be able to
use it for the Lord.
00:48:48.59\00:48:50.79
And what a blessing it is
00:48:50.99\00:48:52.99
to be able to
be used by the Lord
00:48:53.19\00:48:55.20
and to take these talents
and then further His message
00:48:55.40\00:48:59.23
to the world. We are
living in the closing hours
00:48:59.47\00:49:03.24
of earth's history. And
to think that He can use us
00:49:03.44\00:49:06.78
like that. Man... that's
like a two-hander basically.
00:49:06.98\00:49:10.18
That's a
two-hander of praise the Lord!
00:49:10.38\00:49:12.35
"Use me to be a
part of this work. "
00:49:12.55\00:49:15.42
You know, I want to
encourage you at home
00:49:15.62\00:49:17.12
to do the same thing.
00:49:17.32\00:49:18.79
What talents do you have
00:49:18.99\00:49:21.26
that you can use for the Lord?
00:49:21.46\00:49:24.23
Do you have a gift of talking?
00:49:24.43\00:49:27.06
Wow! There's some people
that have the gift of talking
00:49:27.26\00:49:30.07
and sharing,
and they can meet...
00:49:30.27\00:49:33.77
They never have a
stranger. They can see somebody
00:49:33.97\00:49:38.77
in the grocery store and they
can strike up a conversation
00:49:38.97\00:49:41.74
with them. Or
they're at the gas station;
00:49:41.94\00:49:44.65
can start a conversation
with them... their neighbor.
00:49:44.85\00:49:48.38
And you can share with them
00:49:48.58\00:49:50.72
using that talent the message
that Christ has given you
00:49:50.92\00:49:56.12
that He's coming again soon.
00:49:56.32\00:49:58.73
Maybe you have
the gift of cooking.
00:49:59.13\00:50:02.70
Well you can use that talent
00:50:03.10\00:50:05.40
preparing a wholesome meal
00:50:05.60\00:50:08.47
for your neighbor
or someone who's sick
00:50:08.67\00:50:11.07
and be able to
bless them with that.
00:50:11.27\00:50:13.81
Maybe you have a
talent for singing.
00:50:14.01\00:50:17.05
You've got talent for singing
or playing an instrument.
00:50:17.45\00:50:20.05
Use your talent for the Lord.
00:50:20.25\00:50:23.02
You know we don't
have much time left
00:50:23.22\00:50:26.89
before the Lord is going
to break through the clouds
00:50:27.09\00:50:30.56
and come and take us to
heaven. Do you want to be there?
00:50:30.76\00:50:33.46
I know I want to be there.
00:50:33.66\00:50:35.23
And I don't want
to be in a situation
00:50:35.63\00:50:39.67
where I have this gift
00:50:39.87\00:50:42.50
and I'm not
using it for the Lord.
00:50:42.70\00:50:44.61
I want to encourage
you at home to do that.
00:50:44.81\00:50:47.58
Use you talent; use
your gift for the Lord.
00:50:47.78\00:50:50.05
He's asking. He's
pleading with you to do that.
00:50:51.11\00:50:55.78
Bro. Art, we only
have a few more minutes
00:50:56.89\00:50:59.39
before I want to share
with those who are watching
00:50:59.59\00:51:03.83
how they can contact you.
00:51:04.03\00:51:06.16
And what I want
to just emphasize
00:51:06.36\00:51:10.17
is thank you for using your gift
00:51:10.37\00:51:15.00
and your talent for Him.
00:51:15.20\00:51:17.37
And I want to encourage
you to continue to do that.
00:51:17.57\00:51:21.88
Continue to use your
talents for the Lord.
00:51:22.08\00:51:24.11
Let's not use it for
our own glorification,
00:51:24.31\00:51:27.58
for someone else's
glorification. Let's use it
00:51:27.98\00:51:30.39
to solely encourage others
00:51:30.59\00:51:36.12
about Christ's soon coming.
00:51:36.32\00:51:38.66
And for you at home,
if you want to know how
00:51:39.26\00:51:41.86
you can get in
touch with Bro. Art
00:51:42.06\00:51:44.63
and how you can be a part of
this ministry, how you can share
00:51:44.83\00:51:49.60
check out the
information on your screen now.
00:51:49.80\00:51:51.47
