It's an exciting place to be. 03:04 I just have to say something about the Call Center because I 03:06 spent a number of wonderful years there at the Call Center. 03:09 And it's just I don't know Marilyn's fantastic is really 03:13 that's like frontline work because you're getting phone 03:15 calls on a daily basis there and then shipping out the 03:18 orders. I see a whole stack of fun things Evangelistic 03:21 items right there in front of you which we're going to 03:23 talk about in a few moments. 03:24 But the call center, what a blessing. Yeah. A lot of 03:26 hard work goes on there. A lot of hard work and I have 03:28 great team behind me that 03:31 does a tremendous job and I'm so grateful to have them on my 03:35 side. Amen. 03:36 >> Amen. We have a great team at the Call Center. How many 03:38 years if you've been there as manager? Oh, my goodness. 03:41 I think it's been I know over 8 years. Wow. Yeah, yes, yes. 03:47 I know. It doesn't seem like it as assistant to Jonathan Babb. 03:51 Jonathan Babb. Right. Yeah. 03:54 And now a manager so it's been a journey 03:58 but a wonderful one. Amen. I love the Call Center because 04:02 we have the opportunity to interact same with Planned Giving 04:05 and Trust Services. You can interact with you at home and 04:09 when you call in with questions or anything we can do to assist 04:13 you it is always a tremendous blessing, absolutely. 04:16 We talked just before we went to the end of last hour about this 04:20 incredible evangelistic opportunity... I'm excited. You 04:24 know, we've been doing the Focus on Truth, zip code mailings and 04:28 case orders, Ten Commandments, Salvation and 04:30 Hellfire. But Mr. Danny your just finishing with a brand new 04:34 one. 04:35 >> We do. And it's called The Lord's Day. All right. And that 04:38 seems to be such a controversial subject and 04:41 everywhere you want to talk to people, if you bring up the 04:44 Sabbath, what have you, they say well I keep the Lord's Day? 04:48 And so I decided why don't we take a look at the Lord's Day 04:52 and let's really go into it as much as we can on common sense 04:56 level, but keep things simple and find out 05:00 is there. 05:01 Does the Lord have a day first, of all, we need to establish 05:05 that if He does have a day, 05:07 what day is it? And so if he wants us to keep that day, 05:14 you know, in fact, he says, remember, and we have the whole 05:16 world wants to forget about it. So many times people say 05:20 why live under the new covenant so I don't, I'm not 05:23 worried about that. I just keep the Lord's Day. And that's in 05:26 honor, the resurrection. And so we've done a study in 05:30 that and I've been 05:31 really excited about this. And I've written a number of 05:34 books and co-wrote the Shelley Quinn and Yvonne helping me with 05:37 that. But the research is just incredible what you can find and 05:41 what you can find, especially with the help of the Internet 05:43 now. And so what we do is we go through, I think it, and in 05:49 fact, we put so much and that we're trying to keep from 05:53 the 48 pages Pacific Press said you've got too much 05:56 information, we don't even 05:57 have room for any pictures. Oh no...If I have to leave 06:00 out some pictures or the word. I think I'd rather leave out 06:03 some pictures and lets pack as much as we can. 06:07 So the Lord's Day, basically, I believe that Yvonne says, 06:14 you know, I really think this is what people need. 06:17 It's an end-times message, we even go into the and the end of 06:20 the 3 Angeles messages briefly as we can, but to get a 06:25 people an understanding of how, you know, God's 06:28 Commandments are still valid today. And so when we say, 06:32 well, the Lord's Day and everyone assumes not everyone. 06:35 But as you know, most of the Christian world that must be 06:38 that Sunday and honor the resurrection. We find out 06:41 there's that's not true at all. But we give the Bible so we go 06:44 through the Sabbath. We show it from a scientific as much as we 06:49 can stand point. Yes. So we we show up from common sense. 06:54 Yeah, we try to hit every way that we possibly can. 06:58 So what I do and the Lord impressed me to do this, Jeff and 07:03 I started doing it several years ago, what I do when I write a 07:06 book like this is I get people, I say, well, you know, hey, 07:10 I'm a 7th-day Adventist Christian I've got to be, I need somebody 07:14 objective if I right to interview and say, hey, read us 07:18 or send it my writing, say read this and say that's right. 07:21 But I say why don't I send this to Baptists, to Methodists to 07:26 Pentecostals, people friends of mine and many of them pastors. 07:30 So I'll send it and I did this one. And it's amazing what we 07:34 get back. And I mean, I'm talking about Baptist pastors. 07:37 Even someone informally is this church of other 07:40 denominations. So now we've initiated Bible studies and 07:44 then they even get Pastor John involved with one of 07:48 these ministers. But I said let me send it to the people that I 07:52 basically know that are not 7th Day Adventist. And this is 07:57 on the Lord's Day, which, of course is going to go to the 7th 08:00 Day Sabbath. And let me see how they, you know, no, no, don't 08:04 print it first. And then they say where you didn't answer 08:07 this question or that so they sent me back. They'll say, well, 08:10 I agree with most of it, but I don't think we really have to 08:13 keep the Sabbath because it's just a rest, you know, so they 08:17 give me their idea was just kind of a general rest and others 08:20 say, well, they were nailed to the cross and others say, 08:23 well, you're missing the whole point. It's legalism, you know, 08:26 keeping the Sabbath is legalism so I'm able to take all of 08:31 those questions. And then I'll answer them and then I send them 08:34 back. So to these pastors that's in the back and say, 08:37 OK, now, where where'd I need to go. So sometimes they'll 08:41 wright back. And then some like on this last three wrote me, 08:45 pastors for over 40 years said our eyes have been opened. 08:48 Now we finally get it. After all of these years, we finally 08:52 get it so like on this one, one says, but, you know, keeping 08:56 the Sabbath is legalism, we're not about legalism anymore, 09:00 Every Sabbath you keep that Sabbath, that old law that every 09:05 Sabbath is legalism. So I said, well, let me ask you a question. 09:09 You go to church every Sunday, right? So yes, I say it 09:13 because you say you go to church Sabbath you're trying to 09:15 work your way into heaven. So I said well, you go twice on 09:18 Sunday, right, go to church morning and evening is 09:22 that legalism? Oh, well, no. 09:26 I said well why not? Sounds like you're trying to work your 09:28 way into heaven, right? Well no, I never really thought about it, 09:32 I said, well, why is it if I keep the Sabbath the day the Lord 09:35 said the keep, the 7th day of the week and I keep the day 09:40 he said, remember to keep I mean, legalism. But you all 09:43 say, well, I don't you know, I'm not in the legalism... 09:47 But you do. You worship that day on your own day. 09:51 And a day that actually the Catholic Church is we find out 09:54 through our studies and they're bold enough to at least say, 09:57 I respect that. So what we find out, I do have some things from 10:02 Rome's challenge and things were Rome where the Catholic 10:05 Church that I don't have in some of the other books where they 10:09 themselves are challenging Protestants because they say 10:13 well Protestant means to protest. What are you 10:16 protesting, Catholicism? So you all say your Protestants 10:19 and they actually say all Protestants, all major 10:24 Protestant with the exception of 7th Day Adventist, it says, 10:28 you know, are not really Protestants, because you follow 10:31 us in spite of yourself when you keep Sunday the first day 10:34 of the week, holy. And so I use a lot of this. So we use from 10:39 what their writings we use, as I said, science, what we can 10:43 figure out then people say to me, but you'd never know 10:47 which days the Sabbath. And I say why not? Well, because how 10:50 do you know when even if you want to keep it any day, 10:54 the days and weeks are all messed up? And I said, well, 10:57 what makes you think that? Well, how do? Who kept in Jacob's time 11:01 and, you know, back in Exodus and all of the things people 11:05 haven't forgotten the timing. So I say it was really pretty 11:08 easy and I use illustration here in the book. It's pretty easy. 11:12 I asked the question in the book. Do you think Jesus was 11:16 present at creation? 11:18 What would do? We all absolutely, Hebrews 1 and John 1 and 11:23 rested on the 7th day at the end of the six-day creation 11:27 week. Okay. Now let's fast forward a few 1000 years Jesus 11:31 comes to Earth. He's born as a baby. He grows up. He goes to 11:35 church as his custom was in the synagogue, every Sabbath, 11:39 every 7 days 7, which is Saturday. Now, do you think 11:44 that Jesus who was a creator who created the Sabbath now 11:48 he's born on this Earth and is confused. He doesn't know which 11:51 day as Saturday. So he just picks, which is 7th day. 11:55 So he just happens to pick the 7 day. No, of course, if we 11:59 can't trust Jesus on this, we can't trust anybody. Right. 12:02 So now so since we know that Jesus kept the 7th a Sabbath 12:07 time has been kept since then where there's no change in the 12:11 weekly cycle, we show that not only from signed science and 12:15 how the calendar was changed, but not the daily, you 12:19 know, the continued to go. But we also the Catholic Church 12:23 from late first century. They've never forgotten which 12:25 day Sunday. No, the Jews have never forgotten which day is 12:29 Saturday anywhere. You've got end of the way that a lot and 12:31 Israel event, although they've never forgotten. So it almost 12:35 seems like it's so hard. It's harder not to, you know, 12:39 ha-ha. So we try to take common sense questions and we 12:43 answer we go through. So these people are asking me well, 12:46 but this says don't judge me of what to eat or drink and the 12:50 Sabbath. One pastor called us on the phone and he said 12:54 this is ceremonial laws. You know, this is the Sabbath, 12:58 is part of the ceremonial laws. Look at Leviticus. 23. 13:01 Well, you read that and you say interesting. So I said, well, 13:05 what about so these are the type of questions people are 13:08 giving us that our own, you know, people keep the Sabbath, 13:11 probably wouldn't even think about it. But these people are 13:15 people that I know and I know they love the Lord. They're 13:17 trying to find answers. So I said we're really why when did 13:21 ceremonial laws come about, you know, after sin or before sin? 13:26 Well, after sin well, but the Sabbath was here at the end of 13:29 creation. So how could that be a ceremonial law? And we're 13:32 going to keep it heaven Isaiah 66, so if we're going to 13:35 keep it there. Then how is it it a ceremonial law? 13:40 you know. And again, we always go back to the only 13:44 commandment that said, remember, is the only one people forget, 13:47 I won't go into all of it. But I'm just telling you, 13:49 we're trying to what made me so and Yvonne too, we're so excited 13:54 about this. We're getting to answer questions that people 13:58 outside who were used to dealing with and knowing and 14:02 worshipping with their real questions. Well, yeah, 14:05 we understand is just a rest a we don't believe, you 14:09 know, and now we get to take those wright that in the book to 14:13 answer those questions. Yeah. What happens at the end of the 14:16 books? We have people saying, you know what, I finally get 14:19 it. I never understood. Thank you for including me. So not 14:24 everybody does. But we've had a number of them who have said 14:28 and these are pastors for over 40 years said thank you so 14:32 much. We finally get it. We never got it all these 14:34 years. Also, praise the Lord. So the opportunity now we run 14:38 into big problem, Greg. And that is printing because 14:43 there's hardly any paper to be gotten. There's a shortage is a 14:46 shortage. There's no shortage paper around the world. Well, 14:50 the Devils out to... I always say that Lord says 14:54 going, the devil says stop. So if we want to see whose side 14:57 somebody is on anybody trying to stop the gospel and that's 15:00 not on God's side, right. So Jesus says go and all 15:03 the world, how you gonna do it when there's a shortage 15:06 worldwide and people can't. Our own printing presses, you know, 15:10 in the church can't get very much paper and it's amazing 15:14 They got enough to print some, but not enough. 15:17 Last year we printed six million, two million a piece of these books 15:21 Yeah. So we're trying to get the paper and there's no way to 15:24 get. Well. The Lord led may right to a company who says 15:27 there are international company and they said we can do it and 15:31 we can get it to you and it costs them more than it did 15:34 last year. But everything costs more. If you haven't noticed, 15:36 go the gas station or go to the grocery store and you'll find 15:40 out. But it still to me, unbelievably cheap and the 15:43 shipping from Asia all the way over. But they're doing it 15:48 and they're putting it together is taking us a little longer to 15:51 get it. But it's amazing. So we're going to be able to 15:53 get two and a half million of these things printed up. 15:57 And so when we get them, what I've done it with the Lord's 16:00 blessings, is we've got people to sponsor the most of this, 16:05 the most of this, I'm saying people to sponsor the most of 16:08 it. Why so we can give the books away. We don't sell the 16:12 book so we give them away. 16:14 And this year what we're doing and we all can get into that. 16:17 But we're going to the get people back so now we're out 16:21 to ball games and doing all the stuff we did before so now 16:24 and pass some books out again. So instead of doing the ZIP 16:27 codes where we're sending boxes, but it has to be a whole 16:32 box of 250 right, Marilyn, per box. And so people can 16:36 order these. Now, this is a pre-deal because this is 16:39 going to be 2 or 3 months. I'm glad you said late summer 16:42 or Fall because we're really dependent on the ship 16:45 setting out in San Francisco Bay. 16:47 Yes, all these places where the books are coming in are papers 16:50 coming in all the materials. But it is being done the devil 16:54 is a defeated foe because of the matter how hard he tried to 16:57 stop things with COVID through television. We get our 17:01 audiences grow now because people are staying home. 17:04 That's right. They couldn't get out. 17:06 People couldn't go out and have passed out books. 17:07 But now they could say well send the ZIP codes. Now we're 17:10 back to we can go out and pass out books which is good for us 17:13 and that's what we really need to do. It was to get out and 17:17 make contact with people know if you don't want to get close 17:20 social distance, wear your mask, you can hand the book. 17:23 So this book is called The Lord's Day. We're going to get 17:26 out by itself, not in a group because we think there's going 17:29 to be a need for millions. 17:33 taking orders tonight is to premature because you'll be mad 17:36 at me in a few weeks. But if you think you want to be a part of 17:41 this in order for your church, Greg can tell you how much that 17:45 will be and Jill, you guys can get into those figures, 17:48 but at least we'll know, put your name on the list. So when 17:51 they come because we think they're all going to be last 17:54 year, we moved six Million so we're getting two and a half. 17:56 So we want to make sure that you get a chance and tell them how 18:01 reasonable it is. Because other people put up the money to do 18:05 this. You're basically just don't pay the shipping. I mean, 18:08 and we're having to estimate it because July they're taking up. 18:12 The postage is going up. Right, yeah correct? We're 18:15 trying to estimate that in the cost so... 18:17 >> We are because that way it helps you build to figure out 18:20 home right about what's coming along the opportunity 18:22 you have. And like Mr. Danny mentioned, this is by the case. 18:26 So you can actually order these books the Lord's Day by the 18:29 case, Lord willing 250. That's the plan in each box. That's 18:34 we're planning on. And the suggested donation is $25 18:37 shipped anywhere here in the United States. 18:40 For 250 books for 250. 18:42 So if you do the quick math, that's what about $0.10 per 18:46 booklet. I mean, that's absolutely amazing. Like Mr. 18:47 Danny said someone, several donors stepped forward to help 18:51 pay for the printing. But you just have to pay for the 18:54 postage to your house. And this is a fantastic opportunity. 18:58 These are the other ones, the 10 Commandments and Salvation. 19:01 and Hell Fire but think about this taking books and going out and 19:04 put them down and let's say, I guess I can say this on live 19:07 TV, right? And like rest areas, gas stations, or you can 19:11 actually, hand them to somebody that you say you're pumping gas, 19:13 door to door, but a pumping gas to see some would say, 19:16 hey, you know what you get talking about End Times. Here's 19:19 a little book. There are so many opportunities to 19:22 evangelize and to share Jesus. And this is something that I've 19:25 done recently. And is this really I know it's been eye 19:28 opening for me. It's been a faith journey for me. And that 19:31 is I've been praying to God and saying, God, 19:33 give me an opportunity today to share you with somebody else 19:36 that I don't even know. And do you know it's absolutely 19:38 fantastic. It's fun now because God will drop someone in your 19:42 lap so to speak. It's a phone call you're out and about that. 19:46 God will say here is this person that I want you to share 19:49 the love of Jesus with and you just pray for God to open these 19:53 opportunities. Well an opportunity is to actually pass 19:55 these books out. So $25 suggested donation. Jill has all 19:59 these details she can rattle them off much better than me 20:02 on how you go about doing this. You know the details Mr. Danny, 20:05 of course on how to do this. The Call Center is open tonight. 20:08 Yes, that's right. So call us right now. 20:10 >> At 618-627-4651. Again, we're not taking those preorders 20:15 because it's not available for a few months because we're 20:21 in the printing process right now. However, you can call and 20:23 say, hey, I think my church would be interested or 20:26 maybe they'd like 5 cases or we might like 10 cases. Are we 20:30 just kind of get that idea of what people are looking at 20:33 right now as you can give us a call 618-627-4651, and maybe 20:39 Marilyn you want to add some- thing to that? putting you on 20:42 the spot here but...Or you can also send us an email, that's 20:46 good and I get those e-mails myself and so I'll be happy to 20:50 answer them and give you any information that you need. 20:53 What would the email address be? Mail at 3ABN,org. 20:58 >> And I want to say a big thank you to Pacific Press 21:01 because they printed one's last year. Didn't have enough paper 21:04 to print this many but they putting it all together 21:08 for us and doing all the covers all the editing, all of 21:11 them literally putting it, the whole thing together and able 21:14 to print a couple of 100,000 this point. Hopefully, later they'll 21:17 get more paper and they can do more. But they do an incredible 21:21 job working with Del Galucia? And I mean, his crew is 21:24 just...they're amazing people and when they 21:27 get on the job, they do it and it's beautiful and the designs 21:31 they come up with, we just suggest things and they show you 21:34 covers and if you don't like this, you want us to 21:36 change to this. 21:38 >> I mean, Pacific Press thumbs up because they've done a 21:42 good job working with us so far. Pastor John, let me go back 21:45 to the title of the booklet In the Relevance of it 21:47 for today because Danny made a lot of statements that are so 21:50 appropriate. When we look at the confusion that exists in 21:53 Christianity today, the Lord's Day, 21:56 there's only one question, is it or isn't it the Lord's Day? 22:01 If it is, then we all should keep it. If it isn't, then we 22:04 should follow what the Bible says. And we're not trying to 22:07 come up with any kind of a scheme or try to confuse people 22:12 in Christianity. But because the confusion exists, there are 22:15 so many reasons. I appreciate the fact that Danny says okay, 22:18 you observe it. You go to church on Sunday. You've been 22:20 keeping it. You're a pastor. Let us know what your positions 22:23 are. So this is not a book written to embarrass anyone. 22:26 Not to say, if God's word says it, then we should all keep it. 22:30 If Sunday is the right day to keep, then we all should be keeping 22:33 it. All right. If Sabbath is the right day, then we all 22:36 should because it's not about what we decide. It's about what 22:39 the Lord says. An amazing the Sabbath starts with the phrase 22:42 or word. Remember, you know, when Luke said, remember, 22:46 lot's wife there's not a pastor out there that will 22:49 argue with that. When 22:50 Solomon, the wise men said, remember, the creator in the 22:52 days of youth is not a single passage that would young folk 22:55 You need to forget about the creator while you're young. It's 22:57 good. Now everybody would say remember Solomon, what he said. 23:00 Everybody was a dream of what Luke says. Don't look back. 23:04 I'm blown away as a pastor that God says remember the Sabbath 23:08 that keep it holy and clergy and prelate 23:11 too many to count, say forget it. So this book is a reminder 23:16 to remember what God said to remember and then to eliminate 23:21 the reasons why 23:22 for confusion or not. 23:25 Where did the phrase the lords to come from, you know, Exodus 23:28 the Sabbath it the 7th day is a Sabbath of the Lord. Your God 23:31 Exodus 20:10, Isaiah 58: 13. The Lord says He calls the 23:35 Sabbath, my holy day. The math in Mark 2:27, 28, 23:39 He says I am the Lord of the Sabbath. So from Old to New 23:43 Testament. He continues to say, that the Sabbath is my day and lastly 23:47 I'll throw it back to you on this one before sin entered the 23:50 world. God did something, He used 6 days to create the world. 23:55 He did not create anything physical on the last day, 23:58 but he created something that cannot be burned up. 24:02 cannot be broken down, cannot be destroyed 24:04 because it has spiritual dimensions as God is spiritual, 24:08 So is the Sabbath. The only day of the week he blessed was the 24:11 last one, the 7th the day He blessed it. He sanctified it, He 24:15 made it holy any He rested and then he said this is the reason 24:19 why I want you to keep it. Yeah. And Ezekiel says it's a 24:21 sign between God and us that we might know that He's the God 24:26 that sanctified us. 24:27 So the Lord's Day is a call to Christians is a call to 24:31 Christian leaders as a call to church leaders. People that 24:34 attend church that love the Lord. Like Jeff in Charletta 24:36 perfect examples. I was just thinking that. That was a 24:40 quandary in your life for many years was yes, yes, we're 24:43 Sunday, keepers, right, for many years. 24:45 >> If it wouldn't have been for 3ABN coming into our home, 24:48 we would have never even known the difference. 24:50 >> Yes, and I remember Charletta telling us the story she said how 24:53 she got her first. And Jeff, she's like me really honest. 24:58 Ha-ha, right? Absolutely. Pulled his coat tail and sat 25:02 down even your father law, right? Yeah. Is it pastor? 25:05 No, you know, her sister's... yeah, father-in-law. Yes. And she 25:09 told me about once he was sitting at dinner once and 25:12 his and yet your sister's father-in-law's wife was 25:16 sitting right next to Charletta. and she said now if you don't 25:19 know what day is the 7th day, just look at the calendar, 25:22 she said oh, oh. Ha-ha. She told us she's been watching 3ABN. 25:25 >> That's right. Okay. So this is what we're talking about. 25:28 People like Jeff in Charletta, people like Chris and Mike 25:30 Cavaness and the numbers go on and on, people that simply said, 25:35 I love the Lord. I just want to know what He wants me to do. 25:38 Danny, Thank you for this book. It's time to... 25:41 >> It's a blessing to us in writing it because it just 25:44 reaffirms and you get so much new information because you see 25:48 how people think and what it takes to reach people, 25:52 outside our, regular arenas. We might say, so these people, 25:56 I just got an email from one of the pastors and a pastor for 40 26:00 years. He just said the other day you've 26:05 you hit my heart strings, you've hit my heart string. 26:10 I'm very, very open. I've learned a lot. I'm not all the 26:14 way there, but he said I'm willing to talk and I'm willing 26:18 to I just want to do what Jesus wants me to do this. This is a 26:23 pastor for many years. Wow, that's so not no, not a 7th-Day 26:28 Adventist. So give us the nomination. But I'm saying 26:31 because these people we do it in a good. Yeah. Not likely to 26:34 show you wrong. Whatever I'm like, look, we're friends. 26:37 We're good enough friends that you can trust me and I trust 26:40 you. So, I'm writing this book, but I don't want to put 26:42 anything out that's not true. So it is not true or if I miss 26:45 quoting the Scriptures, I want to know about it. If I'm not 26:49 answering your questions and they do so I've got about 8 people 26:52 in their writing me. So answer those and I send it back to 26:56 they'll say. Well, that helps. But I did have this 26:58 question. So when they say who wrote the book, I say non- 27:02 Adventist. Ha-ha, I just put it together. 27:07 >> So, again, the Lord given us an opportunity. I'm so 27:11 excited about this booklet that Mr. Danny is giving us the 27:13 manuscript. We've looked at it. Pastor John, you commented on 27:15 it as well. But the fantastic little booklet all packed into 27:19 48 pages and the very end because if somebody is reading 27:22 this while want to find out more information has ways that 27:25 they can watch 3ABN. So it's also that evangelistic 27:28 tool as well. We encourage you to call the Call Center 27:31 this evening. Marilyn's here with us, the manager of 27:33 the Call Center. But it's a 618-627-4651, because we shared 27:37 a lot of information with you this evening if you just want 27:40 more information like what I can order tonight, what's 27:42 available? They can share all the information with you when 27:45 it will be available. And we're so excited again about the 27:48 opportunity. It's all about evangelism. God wants us to sow 27:51 the seed. And one way to do that is to put the literature 27:53 out there. People will come across His message, His truth and 27:57 their lives will be changed for eternity. 28:00 >> And lastly, please ask me the title the Lord's Day. 28:04 Yes. If I wrote a book, the Sabbath, not too many people 28:07 would pick up. Good point. Right. Yeah. So the Lord's 28:12 Day is like, okay. I'm going to read this. I want to find 28:15 more information about the Lord's Day. Because I've met some 28:18 of these Adventist's or somebody and they're always talk about 28:20 Sabbath, I want to find out 28:22 about the Lord's Day so they read it. 28:24 So there's a purpose in naming it the Lord's Day because 28:27 people want to find out and I think it will get a lot more 28:31 people that will be open if you're passing it out and it 28:34 said, 7th-day Sabbath, you know there's. Oh well, I don't. 28:37 But it's the Lord's day. 28:38 O well, let me see that I keep the Lord's Day. Absolutely. 28:41 So hopefully. Yes, great title. I know. 28:44 I love that. Thank you so much for following the leading in 28:47 and unction of the Holy Spirit and writing the book for it. 28:49 That's right beautiful cover for it too. I'm excited about 28:51 how God is going to use it. Evangelistically, it's $25 for 28:55 a case of these and we'll be shipping them out from the Call 28:59 Center. Keep in mind, it's probably a couple months away 29:02 before we have the books in house 250 books, 250 booklets 29:06 in one case and suggested donation of $25 and that will 29:10 cover the cost of the shipping for those booklets to you. 29:14 speaking of evangelistic tools and ways that we can share 29:17 Many times we don't often talk 29:20 about the resources that we have 29:22 available at 3ABN you can go to our online store and you can 29:27 look at news, go 3ABN.tv, click on the store and you can 29:31 look at some of the options that we have. But Marilyn, 29:33 you have some evangelistic tools here. I do. Why don't 29:36 you talk to us about kind of things that we have available. 29:38 >> Yes, I bought a few samples, but there are many products at 29:42 the call center offers. And if we don't have it, we'd like you 29:47 to shop our store, but will be happy to help you find whatever 29:50 you need. And so 29:53 I brought a few samples. We've talked about Focus on 29:56 Truth and this is a great tool when you're out and about just 30:00 handing it out. It's so easy. We've got some share carts. 30:04 You can put this, in your wallet, 30:08 in your purse, 30:10 hand them out to anyone that you feel you want to share how 30:14 to watch 3 ABN. 30:16 >> I love that on the back. I see we have a graphic of it 30:18 up now. Great job crew. I love that on the back you can see 30:21 all the different ways to. That's right. Yeah. So if 30:24 people want to know more information about 3ABN you 30:27 can say all this is how you can watch 3ABN this is how 30:30 you can learn more. 30:31 That's right. I love it. And it's easy. 30:35 So, super easy like business cards. Yeah. So it can fit in 30:39 your wallet. That's right. And then people can order quantities 30:43 with this? We do have quantities. We can send you up to 250 at 30:47 one time. And how much does it cost for that? These are free. 30:51 These are free. Yeah! You know, I think I heard the phone line. 30:56 So these are free. So this is a way that you can 31:02 connect with 3ABN for free. We will send 31:05 you up to 250 at one time. That's right. No cost to you 31:09 and you can pass these out. You can mail them when you send 31:12 your bills back. That's right. Just a little. Yeah, 31:16 yeah, I'm sorry. 31:20 >> And then Pastor Lomacang, he wrote Three Angels' Message and 31:23 we just offered this last Thursday and it went well make 31:29 it went really well. So this Pastor John, give us a 31:33 one minute summary of the Three Angels Message. Yeah, 31:36 pretty much. 31:37 About the same length, about 46 to 48 pages. It's a summary Bible 31:40 only because people need to understand 3ABN what is that? 31:44 3 Angels' Messages, undiluted 3 Angels Messages. And so this 31:48 book gives you a snippet, a summary of what those messages 31:51 are and how relevant they are. You cannot disconnected from 31:54 the sad, but you can disconnect the Sabbath from the 3 Angels 31:57 Messages. So in a partnership it covers specifically, 32:00 what are those messages and why are they so relevant? 32:03 These are the last 3 messages 32:05 that are given to the world to get the world 32:07 ready for the coming of Jesus. All of Christianity should know 32:11 about these messages because it's for every nation, tribe, 32:13 tongue, and people and once again, it's a small booklet 32:18 with Bible only. 32:19 And we've sent out hundreds of thousands of those. 32:21 We try to college students to business people and my wife and 32:25 I travel on the airplane on ships wherever we go, people, 32:28 it's so small. They say I'd be glad to read that. 32:31 and we want to make sure that as...evangelism 32:34 is the key Danny and I know about that, we want to make 32:36 sure that God has given us a responsibility to get the world 32:39 ready for the coming of the Lord and the 3 angel's messages 32:43 as Ryan Day once said he did not hear about that until he became 32:46 an Adventist because it's a message that's not preached in 32:49 most churches because they don't believe that beyond 32:52 Revelation chapter four the church is going to be on earth, 32:54 the whole other topic. 32:56 So it's often ignored and these are not literally 3 angels, 32:59 but the Angels represent the importance of the message for 33:03 the entire world. So you understand that. 33:05 >> And at the very end of it and also gives you ways of how 33:08 you can get in touch with 3ABN. It does, I see that right here. 33:10 at the end. Ways to watch, so this booklet is available. 33:14 We can send one booklet for free, so if you'd like one 33:18 just to see what it's all about. Send one for free. 33:20 And if they want to case tell us about that. If you would 33:22 like to order case, it's $60 per case. And that covers the 33:27 printing and the shipping costs. That's right. So it's very 33:31 economical and I encourage anyone to get it because it's 33:34 just it's an easy way to share God's word many but out you 33:39 got. So we've got this. 33:42 We've got the Prayer and Praise Journal. I love this book, it 33:48 has were 30 days of prayer and it coincides with a song and 33:54 you can put your prayer request in it and then you can write 33:57 your praise report in it as well. And this is a great gift 34:01 for anyone that's may be going through some trials and 34:05 tribulations. You can give this to them and they can write down 34:08 and journal what they're going through. And then it also comes 34:12 with a CD, 2 CDs. And so the songs that are in the Prayer 34:17 and Praise Journal are on the CD. So you can listen. 34:20 >> You can listen to the CD. You can look at your journal. 34:23 You can read you can study. That's right? And you can pray 34:26 and talk to God. Yes. 34:28 >> And how much was the suggested donation of these? 34:31 So the journal is only $5. But if you want the whole set 34:36 it's 10, OK? So that's really economical 2 CDs and the 34:40 Prayer and Praise Journal. 34:41 Yeah, I'm glad you brought that up because we're 34:43 not really selling anything because there's suggested 34:46 donation. That's right. 34:47 Even the books we're just talking about the boxes the $25. 34:50 >> Wouldn't cover a fraction of the book, that's really 34:54 just paying shipping. So that shipping from here to 34:57 your house that's all, the books are free. Yeah. So and these 35:01 are suggested... That's right. donations and so. 35:04 Yeah. So and I have another Prayer Journal here, you can just 35:08 write your prayers in here and this is $1.25, really. 35:13 Suggested donation, suggested donation and this is a 35:18 great gift. If you want to give it to someone, 35:20 I love that. I filled up several of those. 35:22 Have you. This is very popular among the viewers, 35:26 we get a lot of requests for those. Cinda Sanner, 35:30 She wrote an amazing book, A Message of Hope and Comfort. 35:35 Yeah. I love this book. It has wonderful graphics 35:39 in there and words of encouragement. She took all the 35:42 pictures she did take all the pictures. They are and 35:45 there are scriptures in here.

I understand she took them all and then put the 36:03 scriptures that correlates really with the photo. 36:06 Fantastic. We've received some phenomenal. Actually people 36:09 reaching out to us and saying we have been so blessed. 36:12 So encouraged this would be like a gift book. This would be 36:15 be...Coffee Table, put it in your living room. 36:19 And yeah, or just to give to someone 36:22 that is going through some- thing like a trial in their life. 36:23 Yeah right. In Messages of Hope and Comfort, she's such 36:28 an encourager. She is. Such and encourage or and so she 36:33 would send us these pictures and Bible scriptures for the last 36:37 two or three years, I guess. And we were all saying 36:40 >> why don't you put those into a book? She's like, well, 36:43 I'll just give them to you. I'm happy to use them. And I mean, 36:47 it's incred... it's beautiful.

I don't 40:31 know. Maybe you don't watch DVDs anymore. Seems like 40:33 everything is online and file base, but you'd also can get 40:36 DVDs on. Well, most of 3ABN's programs you can actually order 40:40 through the Call Center as well. 3ABN we want to be 40:43 a resource, a resource that they can use to help spread 40:47 the gospel around the world. And it's just exciting times 40:50 that we're living in. And, Jeff, I tell you what, it's 40:54 it's neat. You know, I think about your journey and 40:57 how your life was changed. Well, certainly, there was some 41:01 donor, that gave funds that kept 3ABN on the air and you were 41:04 able to tune into our local network here, which is was a 41:08 radio first? WDQN? No, it was over the air, 41:10 okay out of Johnston City 41:12 channel 15. Yes, and you stumbled across 41:15 it providentially here, well, that it is the rest is history. 41:19 And I think about your depart- ment Planned Giving and Trust, 41:22 tell us a little bit about what's going on there. What's 41:24 on your heart this evening? 41:26 >> Well, you know, Planned Giving and Trust Services, 41:27 your legacy matters. And, you know, that's kind of what we're 41:30 talking about here tonight is we're trying to take and open 41:34 in the world their hearts to the Lord advise, tell them, 41:38 you know, the Lord's Day, it's the Sabbath yeah, it's not 41:41 Sunday, but where you're where your treasure is, there, your 41:45 heart will be also. So, you know, we need to take 41:49 and we have to take a supply 41:51 funding for 3ABN in the future. What we're talking 41:54 about this evening is supplying the funds today to keep the 41:59 we have got people that are donating their real estate. 42:03 We had a family in a state west of here 42:06 that their mother was in the process of donating some 42:08 property to 3ABN mother died unexpectedly. The family called 42:14 said, you know, mom was wanting to donate this property. 42:17 We're going to go ahead and follow through and donate the 42:20 property of 3ABN. That tells you the heart of the kids then 42:25 you know, they were following mom's love of 3ABN. The kids 42:29 followed as well, praise the Lord. Follow through with moms 42:32 Love and wish for her property. So we'll be able to take that 42:36 property and list it and sell it. Put the funds into 42:40 the operation of 3ABN and we just had another family down 42:44 Florida. The lady passed away. She had a trust with us and we 42:49 were able to get that settled up. And we've got the funds 42:52 back from that sale of that property this last week. Praise 42:55 the Lord. Praise, the Lord. And then we had a precious 42:58 soul that just passed away just recently. And we got word about 43:04 that. And we've got her estate out west. That we're going to be 43:07 handling. Yeah. But, you know, it's these donations from these 43:11 precious souls that establish a trust with 3ABN that are able to 43:16 take a supply much needed funds throughout the years. It 43:20 certainly is. And I've just got a little are reading here 43:23 if it's all right. Please. Yeah. The Legacy of the Good 43:26 Lasts Forever. 43:27 As the glow of the dissenting sun lights up the mountain peaks 43:31 long after the sun itself has sunk behind the hills. 43:35 So the works of the pure, the Holy and the good shed light 43:39 upon the world long after the actors themselves have passed 43:42 away, their works, their words, their example will forever 43:47 live. 43:49 The Righteous shall be an everlasting remembrance. Psalms 43:51 6 and the other was from Patriarchs and Prophets. 43:54 Wow. So are deeds that we're doing today. Something very 43:58 simple that we don't even realize 44:01 will be lasting memories for someone for eternity. 44:04 >> Jeff, I want to speak to that, Mr. Danny witnessed 44:07 this for 38 years. But when you bring those checks over, 44:11 you know, it still touches my heart it's just in the Nick of 44:13 Time. You know, it's just like man, you know, where we're at a 44:17 point, 3ABN, is like, wow, you know, we could be a blessing to 44:19 have some extra funds for projects and you know where to 44:22 keep our the operations day to-day operations and here 44:25 come the checks, right? And this person, this 44:30 is resting in Jesus. Yes. And their works do follow them 44:33 because their sleep, the rest until Jesus comes again. 44:37 But yet what they have put into the Planned Giving and Trust 44:40 Department for 3ABN is blessing others, and continues to bless 44:43 others certainly. Yeah. It's amazing. 44:45 >> And we're expecting another couple checks here, just 44:48 thought we have them today. Another way to bless without 44:51 creating a document with 3ABN. He's put us on as a beneficiary 44:55 of your will or trust wherever it may be. 44:57 A Life Insurance Policy or as P.O.D., payment on 45:01 on death of a bank account. And we had a 45:03 person that passed away and we were notified at we were POD 45:08 on their bank account and we're expecting the check from the 45:11 bank just any day. So there's many ways to you can take a 45:15 supply funds to assist in the ministry. 45:18 >> And people can also when you when you write a document, 45:21 you can also include your children or you can include 45:23 other ministries. You can say, OK, I want to write a document, 45:25 but I want to include whatever. And all those are options or 45:29 possibilities. Right. 45:30 >> Absolutely. We encourage you to include your children. 45:32 You know, some people say will include 3ABN, has our 4th child 45:36 arrives, our 3rd child. But I like that. Yes, so, yes, 45:40 we need to include our family because family is very 45:43 important for all of us. But we also need to take 45:46 include Jesus, Yeah, that's right. You know, it says in 45:49 the Bible, you know, 45:50 where your treasure is, your heart will be also so. 45:53 So we need to take and keep Jesus in the Lord you're 45:57 supposed to take and pay tithe. and then, this very said 46:00 many people don't have a savings or anything for 46:04 retirement. He says 35% of Americans do not have a penny 46:07 saved for retirement. Wow. So we need to take and educate 46:11 our young folks that savings is important. We have to have a 46:16 job we have to take and work but we need to take and 46:19 prepare for ourselves and for the future of the church, 46:22 and for 3ABN. That's right. Amen. 46:26 We appreciate you and your team what you're doing there. 46:28 And so the best way to reach you, I know there's a 46:31 special number that will reach Trust Department. The Trust 46:34 Department has 800 number okay 800-886-4800 or you can take 46:40 and go to trustservices@3abn.org 46:42 or you can go on the website 46:49 is at WWW3abn.tv/ plannedgivingandtrustservices? 46:54 Yeah. It's there. To reach us that way. 46:56 >> Absolutely. You. They got a good job. Okay, I love that. 47:00 I was going to say if that seems too complicated you can 47:03 just go to 3abn.tv. 47:04 >> You just click. There's a tab that says Planned Giving Trust 47:07 Services. You can click the tab as well. But I love that. 47:09 Absolutely. It's very humbling. 47:12 from this side when you see, people that 47:17 many of them know that maybe that's not too far away. 47:22 You know, they're going to go to sleep in the Lord and they 47:24 put 3 ABN down to, we want this to go to 3ABN yes, many of 47:30 those say it, it made big difference in my life. I 47:35 learned about Jesus. I learned about the truth and I want 47:38 to my money to go. You know what's left or my, 47:43 assets of certain things. I want those to go to 3ABN. 47:46 And so, you know, we guard that very carefully and we take it. 47:50 But it's very humbling also that people 47:53 remember him because they can do all sorts of things 47:56 with all that money that they're not shows are so 47:59 serious in seeing the work finished. And 3ABN as part of 48:03 that it's getting everlasting gospel and all the world. 48:07 And so thank you again, so much for what you do for the cause 48:12 of God on this earth. Amen! 48:16 >> Yes, yeah. I mean, you know, I think about those that 48:19 have believed in the ministry of 3ABN you know, since the 48:23 very beginning and some of you are brand new and we hear from 48:26 you as well. And I just want to encourage this evening as 48:29 we're coming down to the end of the second hour of 3ABN Behind 48:32 the Scenes is about reporting to you with the Lord again is 48:34 doing through your ministry. We just love hearing from you 48:39 any way you can contact us. Please, please do that. Call 48:41 the call center this evening. We talked about a lot of 48:43 product or just have some questions about what was talked 48:46 about this evening. Please call the call center. Do you know we 48:48 actually have a 3ABN prayer line. Mr. Danny 48:51 you started that back in the late 80's, right? The yeah. 48:55 The prayer line. We have a pastoral department that will be 48:58 happy to pray with you through out the day. 48:59 We have a lot of resources of course 49:02 here are 3ABN would be happy to help you out. 49:05 And Jeff was talking about the Planned Giving Trust. We have 49:09 Mr. Bruce Chance at the Donation Center, like what is 49:12 that? That's like if you have an RV or a car, maybe some gold 49:16 coins or some jewelry, you can reach out to him. But there's 49:19 many ways that we can all be involved in helping to spread 49:22 the gospel around the world. But again, like I mentioned 49:24 ways we love to hear from you. 49:26 >> You can always e-mail us. That's one way. Call us write a 49:29 letter snail mail. Ha-ha comment online on social Media 49:35 You can comment on YouTube or comment on Facebook or comment 49:39 with Instagram, 49:40 Instagram and connect back with you. I just wanted to mention 49:42 too quickly on Cuba. I reference that the first hour 49:46 and we forgot to even mention that we were hoping to Skype in 49:50 with Pastor John Dinzey, he has been in Cuba this past week. 49:54 He has been there with Luis as well as Elijah, two of our camera 49:59 people, Doctor Chaplain Colonel Hernandez. The 4 of them have 50:02 been in Cuba and we are looking forward with eager anticipation 50:07 to the reports. What's coming back from there? They don't 50:10 have real good Internet so we don't have we can't connect 50:13 with him tonight. But Pastor Johnny, we should be home 50:15 tomorrow, Lord willing. And we look forward to a full report. 50:19 We know at the very least six people are ready to have 50:23 been baptized in Cuba as a result of 3ABN Latino being 50:28 on the package, just very, very excited what God is doing. 50:33 And that's because of you joining hands with us 3ABN 50:36 can be the first ever television, Christian television 50:41 allowed into the communist country of Cuba and we're so 50:44 grateful for that privilege and opportunity. 50:47 >> We should also mention our brothers and sisters in that 50:50 3ABN Russia. And also we have of course our brothers and sisters 50:53 in Ukraine, the rest of the part of the world to with all this 50:55 going on over there. 50:57 We've talked with sister Julia here recently and 50:59 their courage is up but just continue to pray for them and 51:02 everything that's going on the situation over there. You know, 51:05 prayer pastor is a mighty thing is that you think about 51:08 talking to the all creator, God, 51:11 you know, times we may feel that it's fruitless, 51:14 but it's not. 51:15 >> True. And we have to keep what's happening in the, 51:18 you know, and Europe and the western part of Europe, 51:22 the eastern part of Europe in our prayers because 3ABN 51:24 Russia is it's existing in a powder keg of 51:29 situation praise God up until this date they're still being 51:33 able to broadcast. 51:34 >> They are and growing. Ha-ha praise the Lord for that. 51:39 You can't do anything against the gospel, you cannot and 51:41 says use everything for it so, no matter what you can't 51:45 hurt it, it is going to go forward, this gospel of the 51:48 kingdom will go. We'll go into all the world and then the 51:52 end I like to say the beginning, really, you know, 51:56 everlasting life. But that's what's amazing thing. So for 52:00 each of us, it's great that you support 3ABN and it's great that 52:03 just send some money. But, you know, the Lord says Go ye all 52:07 the world knows who can some of you can't. You're not able to 52:10 go out your health doesn't allow whatever good point, but 52:13 if you can, it's meeting people letting them see the 52:17 Jesus in you and try to smile just to be there when they need a 52:20 little encouragement need to be there when they need a little 52:23 help. We have someone that we've been talking to that's in, 52:27 according to the doctor's life. You know, it's got a very short 52:32 lived. This is a person that we know and love them. 52:35 But too many details very well known in the community. But 52:39 Yvonne and I count it a privi- lege to be, we're not the same 52:42 denomination church-wise. But you know, as she is, but we have 52:47 the same God. We have the same Jesus. We have the same faith. 52:50 So we're praying for her and she will call because we're not 52:55 part of that and, I Just want to talk to somebody else to get 52:59 some opinions. And so we are able to pray with people and 53:03 the see and there is such a blessing when you get involved. 53:07 And so I'd encourage you to get involved with people in your 53:10 neighborhood and people in your area wherever you can if your 53:13 health permits and you are in a place that you can because 53:16 to me, we may be the only Jesus some people see. 53:21 Yeah, we're not perfect we're imperfect, 53:23 but if Jesus shines out He says if I be lifted up 53:26 from this Earth, will, draw, all men unto me. 53:29 That's right, no pressure John here in the last closing minutes 53:33 here, why don't you give an appeal because there's somebody 53:36 I don't want to miss this opportunity know someone 53:38 may be just not accidentally, but divinely come across 3ABN 53:41 this evening is inspired and God's tugging on the 53:44 heartstrings. So what's what's on your heart pastor? 53:47 >> You know, I believe that if you find this network, it's 53:50 never coincidentally we've had stories throughout the years 53:52 where people have been at the point of almost taking their 53:55 lives and they want to, about to hang 53:57 themselves it's a very gruesome illustration. 53:59 But they kick over the remote and boom right there 54:00 3ABN Mark Finley says just in the nick of time. 54:03 Just in the nick... You're about to end your life 54:05 don't do that. And they have been saved 54:07 by not coincidental that the accident by but the 54:11 into position of God. And so if you're watching this network, 54:15 we encourage you to do one of two things, continue watching 54:18 the network and continue to take seriously what you hear 54:21 because we are committed to the word of God, the and diluted 3 54:24 Angels Messages. If there something that you hear that 54:26 you don't agree with, don't turn us off right a letter and 54:29 say I don't understand that. I don't agree with that. 54:32 And we will do our best by our Pastoral Department, 54:34 or I or Danny Shelton or materials from the Call Center 54:38 will do it whatever we can to clarify what you've heard 54:41 because we believe that if the word of God is clear and we 54:44 stand on it may be as some adjustment we need to do. 54:48 Secondly, share this network with someone else because there 54:51 are people that need to know your neighbor. You may not be 54:53 able to preach are sing, but we are committed to whether it's 54:56 preaching the singing with the children, whether it's cooking 54:59 programs, whatever we do, it's all combined together for an 55:03 undiluted message. And thirdly, we believe that we're living in 55:06 the closing hours of Earth's history. The time that the 55:09 people of God need to say to the world, if there's something 55:11 you have put it in the Lords, hand as Jeff talks about and 55:15 put it in God's hands so that the gospel can go to the world 55:18 effectively and somebody is going make the kingdom because 55:20 of you. So right now we just have a short prayer and ask God 55:24 to guide your mind. Give you wisdom and understanding. 55:26 Thank you. Let's pray. 55:28 Father in Heaven. Thank you for 3ABN for its longevity for 55:32 the vision you gave to Danny, his faithfulness to it and we 55:36 look back and say look at God, as we now say, let's keep 55:40 focusing on God. We pray for Camp Meeting as we talked about 55:43 the messages that are being put together to touch someone's 55:46 heart, the material is being produced. The new book, The 55:49 Lord's Day and also the Truth Series, 3 Angels messages and 55:52 all that we do here. Weather sung all written or preached 55:56 may all the glory go to you? But if you're watching today, 55:58 Father touch the heart. If you're listening on the radio 56:01 touch, the mind of that person maybe know this critical hour 56:04 is the time to turn to Christ. Yeah, that when Jesus comes by 56:08 your grace, we will all be ready. Help us to make that 56:12 decision now so that the end will come with our hearts 56:14 filled with joy. 56:16 >> When we see Jesus in peace your precious name, we pray. 56:19 Amen. Thank you, Mr. Danny, so much for joining us this 56:23 evening it's exciting times. Oh, it is. I wouldn't miss it for 56:26 anything so year after year. It's always amazing, Jill's 56:31 saying this year. Her theme is Look at God. That's right. 56:34 Amazing. Thank you, Pastor John, Jeff, Marilyn, sweetheart, 56:38 it's always good to be on with you. I see your Bible open, why don't 56:40 you take us out. What's on your mind? 56:42 >> Psalm 86. OK? Teach me your way oh, Lord, I will walk in 56:47 Your truth, unite my heart to fear Your name. So I think it's 56:51 become to the closing moments of Earth's history. If you're 56:55 not walking in truth, walk-in truth, make a choice to walk in 56:58 truth, ask God to unite our hearts to praise His name. 57:04 We'll see you again. Bye, bye. 57:05 [MUSIC] |
