I want to spend my life Mending
broken people I want to spend
00:00:03.06\00:00:17.28
my life Removing pain Lord,
let my words heal a heart that
00:00:17.28\00:00:34.20
hurts.
00:00:34.20\00:00:36.10
I want to spend my
life mending broken people.
00:00:37.03\00:00:46.04
I want to spend my
life mending broken people.
00:00:47.24\00:00:56.02
Hello
00:01:01.52\00:01:01.99
and welcome to 3ABN Today Live.
00:01:07.03\00:01:09.10
3ABN Behind the Scenes is
what we call this program.
00:01:09.53\00:01:12.03
It's a great two hours talking
about what the Lord is doing
00:01:12.13\00:01:15.04
through the ministry of 3ABN.
00:01:15.04\00:01:17.37
We just want to say
thank you for joining us.
00:01:17.47\00:01:19.61
We look forward to spending
these two hours with you.
00:01:19.61\00:01:22.28
You know what, Jill, one of the
reasons we do is because you're
00:01:22.41\00:01:24.58
part of the 3ABN family and you
know what, tonight, yes, we're
00:01:24.58\00:01:28.55
going to be talking
about evangelism, but we have
00:01:28.55\00:01:30.39
something super
duper, is that such a word?
00:01:30.39\00:01:33.05
It's a word now.
00:01:33.62\00:01:34.46
Super duper exciting to
share with you this evening.
00:01:35.76\00:01:38.59
Something, Mr. Danny, I'm not
sure that 3ABN has really ever
00:01:38.69\00:01:41.13
quite done before, so I'm
excited about sharing that with
00:01:41.13\00:01:44.37
you this evening.
00:01:44.37\00:01:45.60
But again, it's all about
evangelism and Jill, the second
00:01:45.73\00:01:48.70
hour is going to be packed full.
00:01:48.70\00:01:49.74
Just this first hour is
the four of us, but then we're
00:01:50.14\00:01:52.04
adding some others of the 3ABN
family and going to be talking
00:01:52.04\00:01:55.08
about some other great
opportunities and exciting
00:01:55.08\00:01:57.08
evangelism projects.
00:01:57.08\00:01:58.01
That's right, absolutely.
00:01:58.18\00:01:59.28
We love this time
because we love you.
00:01:59.38\00:02:01.05
You are part of the 3ABN family.
00:02:01.18\00:02:03.35
We love spending this time
together sharing what God is
00:02:03.69\00:02:06.25
doing in and through your
ministry, 3ABN, and some of our
00:02:06.25\00:02:09.82
favorite people in the whole
world are on the set right now
00:02:09.82\00:02:12.79
this first hour.
00:02:12.79\00:02:13.66
Mr. Danny and Dr. Yvonne, I
love you both, glad you're here
00:02:14.00\00:02:16.83
tonight.
00:02:16.83\00:02:17.27
Oh, thank you, we love you.
00:02:17.50\00:02:18.17
And likewise, absolutely, what
a blessing it is to work with
00:02:19.17\00:02:22.74
Greg and Jill and
most of our team here.
00:02:22.74\00:02:25.11
Amazing people
of God, very humble.
00:02:25.17\00:02:26.98
And they just live, eat and
breathe and sleep the Gospel
00:02:28.14\00:02:32.05
and evangelism.
00:02:32.05\00:02:33.11
And that's the way it should be.
00:02:33.35\00:02:34.58
We're in the very closing
moments of verse history,
00:02:34.75\00:02:36.75
right?
00:02:36.95\00:02:37.05
Absolutely, absolutely.
00:02:37.52\00:02:38.72
It's such a blessing.
00:02:38.82\00:02:40.09
Again, we love you guys so much.
00:02:40.29\00:02:42.06
You're our babies.
00:02:42.06\00:02:42.79
Oh, that's awesome.
00:02:43.63\00:02:44.76
We're old enough we can say
that and they not get offended,
00:02:47.03\00:02:49.46
right?
00:02:49.73\00:02:51.10
It's an honor and privilege.
00:02:51.13\00:02:52.10
But it's amazing to be alive at
this moment in earth's history,
00:02:52.40\00:02:54.90
isn't it?
00:02:54.97\00:02:57.77
mentioned, Mr. Danny, we're
down at the very end of time
00:02:57.77\00:03:00.14
and the freedoms that we have
here, especially in the United
00:03:00.14\00:03:02.71
States, are incredible.
00:03:02.71\00:03:03.51
The opportunities for
evangelism are amazing and to
00:03:03.85\00:03:06.11
me, God saw down through
time that 3A Bench should be in
00:03:06.11\00:03:09.58
existence at this moment, the
closing moments, as you often
00:03:09.58\00:03:12.25
say, Mr. Danny, of this
earth's history and here we are.
00:03:12.25\00:03:14.59
I'm so glad you said that,
Greg, because now is the time
00:03:14.69\00:03:18.53
because we don't know how long
we'll be able to have this kind
00:03:18.53\00:03:22.76
of platform because we're just
seeing a lot of our freedoms
00:03:22.76\00:03:27.20
eroding.
00:03:27.20\00:03:28.00
So now is the time and so it
is a privilege to be able to do
00:03:28.90\00:03:33.91
this now and we're so grateful
for you because without you, we
00:03:33.91\00:03:38.15
would not have this
platform to spread the Gospel.
00:03:38.15\00:03:40.95
So it's a blessing.
00:03:41.45\00:03:42.32
You know, life is a
really precious gift too.
00:03:43.18\00:03:44.95
I was thinking about, you know,
we attended one of your family
00:03:45.15\00:03:47.59
members passed away this past
week and you never know, they
00:03:47.59\00:03:50.69
were, in my
opinion, quite young.
00:03:50.69\00:03:52.66
Life is a precious gift.
00:03:53.83\00:03:55.10
We never know when our life may
end so like you mentioned, Dr.
00:03:55.23\00:03:58.43
Yvonne, now is the day of
salvation but also now is the
00:03:58.57\00:04:01.47
day to get
involved with evangelism.
00:04:01.47\00:04:03.54
Yes, yes.
00:04:03.54\00:04:04.81
We are living in the closing
moments of our history so we're
00:04:06.11\00:04:08.71
just excited tonight to discuss
ways that you can partner with
00:04:08.71\00:04:13.42
us in getting this Gospel
to the world as never before.
00:04:13.42\00:04:16.72
Before we discuss those
ways, we have some music.
00:04:16.79\00:04:19.29
Jared and Hilary
Mitchell are with us.
00:04:19.29\00:04:19.32
Lovely couple.
00:04:22.72\00:04:23.66
Wonderful anointing on them.
00:04:24.39\00:04:26.23
And this song they'll be
ministering is Great is Thy
00:04:26.43\00:04:30.33
Faithful.
00:04:30.33\00:04:30.77
Great is thy
faithfulness, O God, my Father.
00:04:39.47\00:04:50.22
There is no shadow
of turning with thee.
00:04:50.99\00:05:00.26
Thou changest not thy
compassions, they fail not.
00:05:01.06\00:05:10.44
As thou hast been,
thou forever will be.
00:05:11.17\00:05:20.32
Great is thy faithfulness,
great is thy faithfulness.
00:05:21.15\00:05:30.13
Morning by morning new mercies
I see, and all I have needed
00:05:30.13\00:05:44.44
thy hand have provided.
00:05:44.44\00:05:49.71
Great is thy
faithfulness, Lord unto thee.
00:05:49.71\00:05:59.69
Summer and winter and
springtime and harvest.
00:06:07.93\00:06:17.11
Sun, moon and stars
in their courses above.
00:06:17.11\00:06:26.38
Join with all nature in
manifold witness to thy great
00:06:26.95\00:06:39.36
faithfulness, mercy and love.
00:06:39.36\00:06:45.87
Great is thy faithfulness,
great is thy faithfulness.
00:06:45.87\00:06:56.31
Morning by morning new mercies
I see, and all I have needed
00:06:56.75\00:07:09.92
thy hand have provided.
00:07:09.92\00:07:13.93
Great is thy
faithfulness, Lord unto me.
00:07:13.93\00:07:23.91
And all I have needed
thy hand have provided.
00:07:27.34\00:07:35.88
Great is thy faithfulness,
great is thy faithfulness.
00:07:35.88\00:07:46.86
Great is thy faithfulness,
00:07:48.23\00:07:54.60
Lord unto me.
00:08:00.84\00:08:04.61
Amen, thank you so very
much, Jared and Hillary, and of
00:08:21.50\00:08:24.97
course Tim Parton
there at the piano.
00:08:24.97\00:08:26.20
What an incredible
song too, industry music.
00:08:26.40\00:08:28.80
Great talent there, and thank
you for sharing that for the
00:08:29.00\00:08:31.54
Lord Jesus Christ.
00:08:31.54\00:08:32.27
Great is God's faithfulness.
00:08:32.41\00:08:34.41
You know this past year, this
year is, we have three event
00:08:34.81\00:08:38.08
has themes, that's what
I'm getting at, and this is the
00:08:38.08\00:08:40.05
year of preparation.
00:08:40.05\00:08:41.12
Last year was God is faithful,
so God is always faithful,
00:08:41.55\00:08:45.32
right?
00:08:45.49\00:08:48.59
our prayer here at 3ABN.
00:08:48.59\00:08:49.72
Thank you God for being
faithful, but also we want to
00:08:49.72\00:08:52.23
be faithful to you.
00:08:52.23\00:08:56.13
what this year is, and
it's preparing for Christ's soon
00:08:56.13\00:08:58.27
return, but also preparing our
hearts personally for Christ's
00:08:58.27\00:09:02.24
soon return, but then preparing
a world for Christ's soon
00:09:02.24\00:09:05.04
return, and also being prepared
this year for the doors of
00:09:05.04\00:09:08.21
opportunity for evangelism that
will open and tonight we have
00:09:08.21\00:09:13.28
an incredible door of
evangelism that is opening, and
00:09:13.28\00:09:17.02
Jill I'm going to let you share
about that and then all of us
00:09:17.02\00:09:18.75
are going to discuss
this because I am just really,
00:09:18.75\00:09:21.02
really, really excited
about this opportunity tonight.
00:09:21.02\00:09:23.46
So we've talked to you before
about this, I think this is the
00:09:23.93\00:09:27.20
latest book, Can the
Christian Church Affirm LGBTQ?
00:09:27.20\00:09:31.10
And I know many of you because
we've talked to you, whether
00:09:31.30\00:09:34.40
we've been out in person or
on the phone or through social
00:09:34.40\00:09:37.44
media, you've said
you've utilized this book in
00:09:37.44\00:09:40.41
evangelism, sharing it with
people in your community, in
00:09:40.41\00:09:44.08
your church, in your
neighborhood, we're passing it
00:09:44.08\00:09:47.38
out and we thank you for that.
00:09:47.38\00:09:49.18
We've been praying about what's
another way that we can use to
00:09:49.52\00:09:53.76
specifically get this booklet
into churches, because this
00:09:53.76\00:09:57.83
booklet is not just for
those within the Seventh-day
00:09:57.83\00:10:00.03
Adventist Church, although
we clearly need it within the
00:10:00.03\00:10:02.50
Seventh -day Adventist Church,
we need this biblical truth,
00:10:02.50\00:10:04.97
but every denomination is
wrestling with and facing this
00:10:05.00\00:10:10.21
issue, and so it's so needed
across many denominations, and
00:10:10.21\00:10:14.31
so the team here has been
working on a way that this
00:10:14.31\00:10:19.31
booklet can be mailed into
churches, so we're starting
00:10:19.31\00:10:23.35
tonight, the first
denomination, can I mention the
00:10:23.35\00:10:26.29
Don Riff Denomination?
00:10:26.29\00:10:27.16
The first denomination is the
Baptist, there's 72,000 Baptist
00:10:27.52\00:10:34.20
churches in the United States,
and we want this booklet to go
00:10:34.20\00:10:38.93
to every church, so the thought
process is that for only 49
00:10:38.93\00:10:44.34
cents, that includes...
00:10:44.34\00:10:45.57
How much?
00:10:45.57\00:10:45.97
49.
00:10:46.14\00:10:46.57
49 cents.
00:10:46.91\00:10:47.68
That's less
than 50 cents, right?
00:10:47.68\00:10:50.05
Wow.
00:10:50.25\00:10:55.15
when people get it in the mail,
they can say, oh, here's how I
00:10:55.15\00:10:58.52
can order more.
00:10:58.52\00:10:59.32
What about the shipping?
00:10:59.39\00:11:00.56
It includes the shipping.
00:11:00.69\00:11:01.79
It includes the shipping.
00:11:01.86\00:11:02.76
To the church.
00:11:02.76\00:11:08.70
order more, and one of
these fancy little envelopes, it
00:11:08.70\00:11:11.83
would go in an envelope that
says 3ABN, boom, it would end
00:11:11.83\00:11:16.50
up at the church, so these
are not being mailed to people's
00:11:16.50\00:11:19.11
homes, these are being mailed
to churches across the United
00:11:19.11\00:11:22.58
States.
00:11:22.58\00:11:25.01
that.
00:11:25.01\00:11:25.41
That's correct.
00:11:25.41\00:11:26.11
Get those, right.
00:11:26.31\00:11:27.25
So for 49 cents, you can call
us right now, and we'll talk
00:11:27.55\00:11:30.79
about it, but you can call us
right now if you want to become
00:11:30.79\00:11:32.85
involved, so that would be for
one dollar, you could sponsor
00:11:32.85\00:11:35.89
two churches.
00:11:35.89\00:11:36.59
Wow.
00:11:36.99\00:11:38.09
That's incredible.
00:11:38.09\00:11:38.89
I mean, I'm not super good
with math, but it's incredible.
00:11:39.26\00:11:43.20
I think for just a very little
amount, you could sponsor this
00:11:43.20\00:11:46.03
to get into churches.
00:11:46.03\00:11:47.34
Yes.
00:11:47.50\00:11:48.30
You can call us
right now, 618 -627-4651.
00:11:48.44\00:11:53.44
That number again is 618-627
-4651, and you can say, I have
00:11:53.98\00:11:59.45
a dollar or five or ten
or a hundred or ten thousand
00:11:59.45\00:12:02.55
dollars, and I want to use
that to get these booklets into
00:12:02.55\00:12:06.32
churches across North America,
or as we mentioned, we just
00:12:06.32\00:12:10.13
picked the Baptist denomination
to start with, but we want to
00:12:10.13\00:12:12.86
cross that over to many
different denominations to be
00:12:12.86\00:12:16.23
able to get this booklet out.
00:12:16.23\00:12:17.33
Yeah, all of them actually,
and so you're not buying or
00:12:17.97\00:12:22.07
purchasing anything.
00:12:22.07\00:12:23.04
Basically, the books are free.
00:12:23.30\00:12:24.97
They're free in the sense we
already had donors before they
00:12:25.07\00:12:29.81
came out that said, hey,
we'll sponsor these books.
00:12:29.81\00:12:32.61
So really all you're paying
for is the shipping and to get
00:12:32.61\00:12:36.08
these books, and so to get
them in the envelopes and to get
00:12:36.08\00:12:39.99
them shipped, so that's
the whole shooting match.
00:12:39.99\00:12:42.19
The whole shooting match.
00:12:42.26\00:12:43.29
I like that.
00:12:43.46\00:12:44.06
That's great.
00:12:44.23\00:12:44.76
The whole shooting match.
00:12:44.86\00:12:45.69
That's an old term, I'm sure.
00:12:46.03\00:12:47.60
So to get them in virtually
every church in America to
00:12:48.06\00:12:51.33
begin with, and so I
didn't realize there were 73,000
00:12:51.33\00:12:56.60
churches, Baptist
churches, not 73,000 people.
00:12:56.60\00:12:59.87
That's counting all the
different, say, Freewill,
00:13:00.11\00:13:02.84
Southern, all of these.
00:13:02.84\00:13:05.15
But 73,000 separate churches,
so we're hitting those first.
00:13:05.35\00:13:10.49
And Methodist, I think, 6,000
churches have split over this
00:13:11.32\00:13:15.26
topic.
00:13:15.26\00:13:15.66
They sure have.
00:13:15.66\00:13:16.29
And so we want to
hit them all, I think.
00:13:16.52\00:13:19.23
We do, absolutely.
00:13:19.23\00:13:20.36
So as long as you support
and you help, I mean Catholic
00:13:20.43\00:13:23.30
Church also, so it's going to
be an amazing, amazing project,
00:13:23.30\00:13:28.00
and thank you all for...
00:13:28.00\00:13:28.04
No, it's amazing.
00:13:29.70\00:13:32.67
cost as much as possible.
00:13:32.67\00:13:33.81
So there's been a lot of
back and forth to get the price
00:13:34.01\00:13:36.61
down, and we just appreciate
those that have made that
00:13:36.61\00:13:38.78
possible.
00:13:38.78\00:13:39.25
So it's amazing.
00:13:39.31\00:13:40.18
To me, I mean, you think about
it, going to 73,000 churches,
00:13:40.58\00:13:43.92
who knows how big
each congregation is?
00:13:44.35\00:13:46.39
Can you imagine?
00:13:46.42\00:13:47.36
I'm going to say on a Sunday
morning, right, they get up and
00:13:47.62\00:13:49.76
say, guess what, folks,
we received this incredible
00:13:49.76\00:13:52.43
booklet, the opportunity for
our church to get more of these
00:13:52.43\00:13:55.30
booklets.
00:13:55.30\00:13:55.86
So one book can touch
an entire congregation.
00:13:56.26\00:13:59.23
We don't know.
00:13:59.63\00:14:00.50
They may order
thousands of them.
00:14:00.50\00:14:01.97
They might.
00:14:02.00\00:14:02.70
Yes.
00:14:03.07\00:14:06.41
and how that ripple effect will
grow bigger and bigger for 49
00:14:06.41\00:14:09.71
cents.
00:14:09.71\00:14:12.08
this is going to churches, the
Baptist Church to start with,
00:14:12.08\00:14:14.92
but we have calculated with
the mailing list that we have
00:14:14.95\00:14:18.02
received, is about 400 and
some churches across the United
00:14:18.02\00:14:21.99
States, to give or take,
depending on which ones you go
00:14:21.99\00:14:23.93
for, 400,000 churches.
00:14:23.93\00:14:26.03
400,000.
00:14:26.06\00:14:26.80
Yeah, 400,000 churches.
00:14:26.86\00:14:28.60
That's right.
00:14:28.80\00:14:31.73
we're starting out with
the Baptists and that's 73,000
00:14:31.73\00:14:34.77
churches.
00:14:34.77\00:14:38.47
this is not like we're sending
you this and saying you need to
00:14:38.47\00:14:41.61
become a...
00:14:41.61\00:14:45.81
I was just going to say that
this is a biblical perspective
00:14:47.42\00:14:52.19
on this issue, and so many
churches and church leaders are
00:14:52.19\00:14:57.16
wondering, how do we
deal with this from a biblical
00:14:57.16\00:15:00.60
perspective?
00:15:00.60\00:15:01.33
And this booklet just goes
through it point by point and
00:15:01.76\00:15:06.60
gives all the scriptures that
you need to defend the biblical
00:15:06.60\00:15:10.51
position on LGBTQ and how
to relate to this whole topic.
00:15:10.51\00:15:16.88
So, what a blessing.
00:15:17.25\00:15:18.21
I'm so thankful you wrote this.
00:15:18.25\00:15:19.88
Oh, me too.
00:15:19.88\00:15:21.05
It's so needed.
00:15:21.22\00:15:22.78
It's needed because it
literally is making inroads
00:15:23.15\00:15:25.89
into every Christian church
and Catholic and Protestant.
00:15:25.89\00:15:29.89
And I mean, it's just...
00:15:30.43\00:15:31.89
To me, if somebody, one would
ask me, 10, 15 or 20 years ago,
00:15:31.89\00:15:37.40
would it be possible, are
we seeing what we see today?
00:15:37.60\00:15:40.24
So many churches affirming and
embracing LGBTQ, the movement,
00:15:40.54\00:15:44.97
I would have said, no way.
00:15:45.24\00:15:47.08
Especially in our church.
00:15:47.78\00:15:49.01
Especially in
these evangelicals.
00:15:49.34\00:15:51.05
This would never happen.
00:15:51.11\00:15:52.18
But it is.
00:15:52.31\00:15:56.35
are all
preaching on other things.
00:15:56.35\00:15:57.85
They're not looking,
keeping the back gates closed.
00:15:58.19\00:16:01.42
Yes.
00:16:01.49\00:16:04.03
And so this is a topic that
I felt like had to be written
00:16:04.16\00:16:08.73
about.
00:16:08.73\00:16:13.37
how to explain it.
00:16:13.37\00:16:14.27
I don't know how
to talk about it.
00:16:14.27\00:16:14.30
So we did that.
00:16:15.94\00:16:16.94
We did the
research and took the Bible.
00:16:16.97\00:16:18.81
So it's not our
opinions in here.
00:16:18.84\00:16:20.41
This is what the
Bible says about it.
00:16:20.68\00:16:22.74
And so we try to be, you know,
say, Lord, because we need to
00:16:22.74\00:16:26.38
know first ourself.
00:16:26.38\00:16:27.48
Most of us, and probably most
of you watching, have people
00:16:27.82\00:16:30.99
either who are friends
or family who are LGBTQ.
00:16:30.99\00:16:33.86
And we love those people.
00:16:34.56\00:16:35.79
Of course.
00:16:35.79\00:16:36.19
And God loves the people.
00:16:36.42\00:16:37.83
That's right.
00:16:37.83\00:16:41.56
come you didn't
write a book on alcoholism?
00:16:41.56\00:16:44.10
Or how come you didn't
write a book on prostitution or
00:16:44.10\00:16:47.07
adultery?
00:16:47.07\00:16:47.67
Why didn't you write those?
00:16:47.74\00:16:48.67
The difference is, this
movement that is basically at
00:16:49.07\00:16:54.44
the point now, I want to
say, I'm going to use kind of a
00:16:54.44\00:16:57.05
strong term, but demanding they
be accepted or affirmed by the
00:16:57.05\00:17:00.88
Christian Church.
00:17:00.88\00:17:01.72
And so they refuse
to say, this is sin.
00:17:02.08\00:17:06.39
This lifestyle is sin.
00:17:06.52\00:17:07.92
So we don't have
to ask God for it.
00:17:08.12\00:17:10.49
You need to accept us.
00:17:10.69\00:17:12.06
We want to be teachers,
preachers, pastors, Sunday
00:17:12.13\00:17:15.80
school, Sabbath
school teachers, whatever.
00:17:15.80\00:17:17.67
And you accept us as we are.
00:17:18.07\00:17:19.87
We're born this way.
00:17:19.87\00:17:20.97
And so there's
nothing wrong with it.
00:17:20.97\00:17:22.87
Well, we're all
sinners saved by grace, right?
00:17:22.87\00:17:22.90
But the only way that a person
can go to heaven since we're
00:17:27.11\00:17:30.85
born into a sinful world is to
recognize that we are sinners,
00:17:30.85\00:17:35.28
number one, and what is sin?
00:17:35.35\00:17:37.19
Sin is the transgression or the
breaking of the Ten Commandment
00:17:37.25\00:17:40.69
Law.
00:17:40.69\00:17:41.29
So when you break the Ten
Commandment Law, Jesus died on
00:17:41.89\00:17:45.19
the cross.
00:17:45.19\00:17:47.60
Where would we be?
00:17:47.60\00:17:48.26
As an atonement for our sins.
00:17:48.26\00:17:50.23
That's so amazing to me that
He could love us enough to do
00:17:50.23\00:17:53.57
that, that He would die on
the cross and atonement for our
00:17:53.57\00:17:56.37
sins.
00:17:56.37\00:18:00.18
salvation.
00:18:00.18\00:18:00.78
But here's the situation.
00:18:01.28\00:18:03.41
We have to confess our sins.
00:18:03.68\00:18:05.38
If we want to be, 1 John 1.9
says, if we confess our sins,
00:18:05.68\00:18:09.45
He's what?
00:18:09.48\00:18:10.15
Faithful and just to forgive us
from our sins and to cleanse us
00:18:10.75\00:18:16.42
from all unrighteousness.
00:18:16.42\00:18:19.16
The folks at home, I could
hear them saying this with me.
00:18:19.16\00:18:21.86
So what an opportunity.
00:18:22.13\00:18:23.33
So it's our responsibility.
00:18:23.77\00:18:25.17
So we're not
setting in judgment.
00:18:25.90\00:18:27.27
We're not saying, oh, you're
LGBTQ, so you're worse than my
00:18:27.44\00:18:31.31
sin or you're worse than
somebody else's sin or I'm a
00:18:31.31\00:18:34.61
better Christian than you are.
00:18:34.61\00:18:36.04
That has nothing to do with it.
00:18:36.31\00:18:37.95
So when it comes to adultery or
alcoholism or prostitution, all
00:18:38.55\00:18:43.22
kinds of things, pride.
00:18:43.22\00:18:44.99
We all struggle with these.
00:18:45.52\00:18:47.39
We're in a great controversy
between good and evil.
00:18:47.39\00:18:50.03
And so the beauty of this
is this is able to tell people,
00:18:50.69\00:18:54.40
you're being deceived right now.
00:18:54.93\00:18:56.30
We love you enough
to tell you the truth.
00:18:56.40\00:18:58.57
See, a lot of
people won't do that.
00:18:58.97\00:19:00.40
A lot of churches won't do
that because it's politically
00:19:00.44\00:19:03.24
incorrect.
00:19:03.24\00:19:04.01
In the culture in which
we're living right now, it's
00:19:04.37\00:19:07.21
politically incorrect to tell
someone, hey, homosexuality,
00:19:07.21\00:19:11.68
the practice of it is a sin.
00:19:11.71\00:19:13.35
Because you're judging.
00:19:13.42\00:19:14.35
You're judging.
00:19:14.72\00:19:15.28
They say, don't judge.
00:19:15.52\00:19:16.65
Who are you to judge?
00:19:16.65\00:19:17.72
But the Bible simply says that
we have to confess our sins.
00:19:18.52\00:19:22.49
So someone said to me and I've
said it before, probably bears
00:19:23.46\00:19:26.46
again, well, why don't you
preach the seventh commandment
00:19:26.46\00:19:29.86
is on adultery.
00:19:29.86\00:19:30.73
Well, you talk
about homosexuals.
00:19:31.03\00:19:32.83
Why don't you
preach on adultery?
00:19:32.83\00:19:34.94
Well, we do.
00:19:35.07\00:19:35.57
It's the same thing.
00:19:35.70\00:19:36.77
So what I say to people and
you've heard me do it numerous
00:19:36.94\00:19:41.14
times.
00:19:41.14\00:19:45.85
come in your church into
membership and to participate
00:19:45.85\00:19:49.72
in whatever services, even up
to being pastor, you're willing
00:19:50.35\00:19:54.22
to do that, right?
00:19:54.22\00:19:55.82
You have people who are willing
to do that and yet they don't
00:19:55.89\00:19:59.79
admit that it's sin.
00:19:59.79\00:20:00.83
So I say, okay, what if
this were a heterosexual couple?
00:20:01.63\00:20:07.04
Someone comes to
your church, okay?
00:20:07.67\00:20:09.94
And they say, look,
we're living together.
00:20:10.51\00:20:12.91
We're not married.
00:20:13.71\00:20:14.91
We're living together, but we
want you to accept us into your
00:20:14.91\00:20:19.11
church membership and I'd like
to be your associate pastor and
00:20:19.11\00:20:22.62
my wife would like to be your
Sunday school or Sabbath school
00:20:22.62\00:20:24.95
teacher.
00:20:24.95\00:20:25.42
And what would you say?
00:20:26.25\00:20:27.72
And almost invariably they'd
say, oh, no, we won't do that.
00:20:28.06\00:20:30.53
The church wouldn't accept that.
00:20:30.59\00:20:31.46
These are people
I've talked to personally.
00:20:31.53\00:20:33.53
They'll say, oh, no,
no, we wouldn't accept that.
00:20:33.83\00:20:36.30
And I say, but yet if a
homosexual couple comes and
00:20:36.63\00:20:40.54
says we want to be part of your
church, it's still the seventh
00:20:40.54\00:20:43.94
commandment.
00:20:43.94\00:20:48.58
And they say we want to become
members and you say, well, we
00:20:48.88\00:20:52.71
need to do that because we
don't want them to think we
00:20:52.71\00:20:54.98
don't love them.
00:20:54.98\00:20:55.82
Well, you didn't do that when
it was a heterosexual couple.
00:20:56.25\00:20:58.92
So what it is, what is
making us think that way?
00:20:59.89\00:21:02.59
What is making
us think that way?
00:21:03.09\00:21:04.49
It's culture and politics
because you don't get that from
00:21:04.59\00:21:07.60
the Bible.
00:21:07.60\00:21:08.03
The Bible is really simple.
00:21:08.50\00:21:10.07
If you read it,
they're both wrong.
00:21:10.07\00:21:11.77
Now, will a heterosexual couple
living together, living in sin,
00:21:11.77\00:21:16.94
no matter if they're
participating in the church or
00:21:17.07\00:21:20.38
not, will they be saved or do
they have to confess their sins
00:21:20.38\00:21:23.98
in order to be saved?
00:21:23.98\00:21:25.01
We all have to confess our sins.
00:21:25.45\00:21:27.68
So why is it that only the
homosexual community, according
00:21:28.58\00:21:33.56
to, there's a lot of churches,
including some of our own.
00:21:33.56\00:21:36.56
Well, it's okay.
00:21:36.89\00:21:37.86
We will affirm
you just as you are.
00:21:38.03\00:21:39.93
Well, we can't do that.
00:21:40.30\00:21:41.33
God doesn't even
affirm unconfessed sins.
00:21:41.33\00:21:44.70
So our sins must be confessed
to God in order for us to get
00:21:45.30\00:21:52.14
forgiveness.
00:21:52.14\00:21:56.28
from our wicked ways
and we go the opposite way.
00:21:56.28\00:21:58.81
And when we fail, which we may,
I do, we fail, but we can come
00:21:58.88\00:22:05.42
back and say,
Lord, I'm so sorry.
00:22:05.42\00:22:07.22
Will you forgive me?
00:22:07.32\00:22:08.49
You see, the difference
is you're not judging people.
00:22:08.59\00:22:11.29
You're a better Christian
or not, but this, any open sin,
00:22:11.96\00:22:16.23
whether it's this or any other
sin, whether it's heterosexual
00:22:16.26\00:22:19.43
or whatever we were talking
about, must be confessed to God
00:22:19.43\00:22:24.34
and ask forgiveness, be a godly
sorrow, come to the Lord and
00:22:24.34\00:22:28.74
say, Lord, please forgive me
and help me to not commit this
00:22:28.74\00:22:34.12
sin anymore.
00:22:34.12\00:22:35.15
And so really
that's what it's all about.
00:22:35.88\00:22:37.75
It's not like people were like,
why are you judging people?
00:22:37.85\00:22:40.59
Boy, do you think you're
better than the homosexual?
00:22:40.89\00:22:42.86
Don't you love them?
00:22:42.92\00:22:43.79
We want them in our church.
00:22:44.03\00:22:45.23
Well, we do too.
00:22:45.29\00:22:46.06
We do too, just
like everyone else.
00:22:46.53\00:22:48.86
So I don't know if
that makes any sense.
00:22:48.96\00:22:50.47
I'm trying to say, but
it's not against anybody.
00:22:50.50\00:22:54.10
In fact, I would take, if
I were an attorney, which I'm
00:22:54.44\00:22:57.31
not, and I were in court, I
would take this as to say, we
00:22:57.31\00:23:00.98
love you more.
00:23:00.98\00:23:01.84
In other words, we love you
enough to tell you the truth.
00:23:02.34\00:23:04.31
So if I had a client, I'd say,
he loves you enough to tell you
00:23:04.78\00:23:07.98
the truth, because this truth,
it's the truth that will set
00:23:07.98\00:23:12.32
you free.
00:23:12.32\00:23:12.85
Amen.
00:23:12.89\00:23:16.99
back to me, but they were
born that way, which is still a
00:23:16.99\00:23:21.33
matter.
00:23:21.33\00:23:24.90
Well, yeah, but the difference
is, heterosexual couple, the
00:23:25.67\00:23:28.64
difference in them
and homosexual couple, and
00:23:28.64\00:23:31.41
unmarried, is that the
homosexuals, they're born that
00:23:31.41\00:23:35.44
way.
00:23:35.44\00:23:35.91
Well, guess what?
00:23:35.91\00:23:37.51
We're all born sinful.
00:23:37.75\00:23:39.35
Sinful nature.
00:23:40.22\00:23:41.22
Sinful nature.
00:23:41.38\00:23:42.32
So it doesn't, we're all born,
but Jesus says he can give us
00:23:42.85\00:23:46.96
victory over sin in our lives.
00:23:46.96\00:23:49.29
If God can't give us victory
over sin in our lives, he's not
00:23:49.56\00:23:52.43
much of a God.
00:23:52.43\00:23:53.13
Right?
00:23:53.70\00:23:57.37
than God.
00:23:57.37\00:23:57.83
God is more, greater is
he that is in you, right?
00:23:58.40\00:24:01.67
Us, than he
that is in the world.
00:24:01.87\00:24:04.57
And so we can always
stand on the promises of God.
00:24:04.57\00:24:08.41
So no matter how you're born,
what sinful nature we're born,
00:24:08.71\00:24:12.28
God can give us victory.
00:24:12.48\00:24:13.58
We just have to come to him,
trust him and say, Lord, not my
00:24:13.85\00:24:17.55
will, but your will be done.
00:24:17.55\00:24:19.22
And I promise you,
God can give you victory.
00:24:19.39\00:24:21.39
How do I know?
00:24:21.49\00:24:22.26
We know a number of people, a
number of people in groups like
00:24:22.72\00:24:26.46
Coming Out Ministry, that
people were in this virtually
00:24:26.46\00:24:30.70
all their lives.
00:24:30.70\00:24:34.34
molested by people and their
whole lives, sexually messed
00:24:34.34\00:24:39.31
up, perverted, messed up.
00:24:39.31\00:24:40.71
And they go for
maybe 30 years old.
00:24:41.01\00:24:43.45
They find Jesus, and God not
only takes that sin away, but
00:24:43.68\00:24:47.75
gives them the natural feelings
between one man and one woman.
00:24:47.75\00:24:51.45
So now they get into
relationships, get married,
00:24:51.52\00:24:53.86
have children,
living very fulfilled lives.
00:24:53.99\00:24:57.43
Because people say, yeah,
but the difference is these poor
00:24:57.69\00:25:00.60
people, if they can't be
together and live together,
00:25:00.60\00:25:04.67
they can't be
like the rest of us.
00:25:04.83\00:25:07.10
No, you can.
00:25:07.27\00:25:08.14
Because we know numerous people
who give their testimony over
00:25:08.50\00:25:12.44
and over and over again.
00:25:12.44\00:25:13.34
We were there.
00:25:13.51\00:25:14.41
God took us out of that
because we asked Him to.
00:25:14.64\00:25:17.85
And yes, it may have been a
struggle, and it may have taken
00:25:18.21\00:25:20.25
me a while, but He
took us out of that.
00:25:20.25\00:25:22.55
And now we're happy,
contented, living for the Lord.
00:25:22.68\00:25:25.42
God wants to give you that same
thing, but people won't tell
00:25:25.59\00:25:29.12
us.
00:25:29.12\00:25:29.49
And so we don't
have enough facts.
00:25:29.96\00:25:31.43
So most of the people that
I talk to say, well, I wish I
00:25:31.46\00:25:34.46
knew.
00:25:34.46\00:25:34.93
I had one woman
tell me a few weeks ago.
00:25:35.40\00:25:37.50
She said,
you're very convincing.
00:25:37.60\00:25:38.97
I wish I knew that.
00:25:39.13\00:25:41.37
But I can't go tell somebody,
well, now you don't have to.
00:25:41.87\00:25:44.87
You just give them a book.
00:25:45.07\00:25:46.47
Because it's all
in here and more.
00:25:46.78\00:25:48.68
So that's the reason we wrote
it is because we're concerned
00:25:49.28\00:25:52.65
that the devil
is deceiving people.
00:25:52.65\00:25:54.98
He's deceiving the church.
00:25:55.18\00:25:56.48
And it says if it were
possible, even the very elect
00:25:57.42\00:26:01.49
would be deceived.
00:26:01.49\00:26:02.69
And so who we always consider
ourselves, especially if you
00:26:02.69\00:26:06.29
think you're part of a remnant
church, you must be the very
00:26:06.29\00:26:09.43
elect that we're not going
to be deceived, but we are.
00:26:09.43\00:26:13.40
Because it's happening within
our church, our universities,
00:26:13.60\00:26:16.57
also our schools, that
it is and all these others.
00:26:17.51\00:26:20.38
So this book is
written for all denominations.
00:26:20.41\00:26:22.61
And when I did the sermon last
summer, we got several hundred
00:26:23.18\00:26:26.92
thousand views on it.
00:26:26.92\00:26:28.15
But people, I read a lot of the
comments, and they were saying,
00:26:28.15\00:26:31.35
we need this in our church.
00:26:31.35\00:26:33.19
We're not Seventh Avenue.
00:26:33.42\00:26:34.42
Some said we're
Catholic, but we need it.
00:26:34.59\00:26:36.62
One Baptist minister said, can
I get a transcription of this
00:26:36.89\00:26:41.60
whole sermon?
00:26:41.60\00:26:42.36
I want to preach
it word for word.
00:26:42.43\00:26:44.10
And so others have written and
said, we're not of this faith,
00:26:44.67\00:26:47.20
we're not.
00:26:47.24\00:26:47.84
But this is
needed in our churches.
00:26:48.10\00:26:49.97
So thank you, Greg and Jill,
for this and pushing forward
00:26:50.04\00:26:53.21
with this.
00:26:53.21\00:26:57.51
I didn't realize there
were that many churches It's
00:26:57.68\00:27:00.08
incredible that we want to get
this to them and for 49 cents.
00:27:00.08\00:27:04.02
49 cents a church.
00:27:04.02\00:27:05.19
So now you can sponsor this
project going into churches.
00:27:05.19\00:27:09.36
So thank you so
much for that, Mr. Danny.
00:27:09.52\00:27:11.43
I think it's so important.
00:27:11.46\00:27:12.46
We recognize that
this is not people bashing.
00:27:12.89\00:27:15.53
This is lifting up
Jesus and lifting up the law.
00:27:15.73\00:27:19.70
Those both together and showing
that the law applies to us
00:27:20.24\00:27:24.11
equally.
00:27:24.11\00:27:27.51
So this is so important because
churches are wrestling with us.
00:27:27.51\00:27:30.41
So you can call us
right now at 618-627-4651.
00:27:30.55\00:27:36.18
That number
again is 618-627 -4651.
00:27:36.69\00:27:40.32
And you can sponsor this
booklet being put into an
00:27:40.66\00:27:45.19
envelope like this
along with a flyer.
00:27:45.19\00:27:48.26
So if the churches say, oh,
I really like this and I'd like
00:27:48.33\00:27:51.53
to order more for my church
members, they know how they can
00:27:51.53\00:27:54.60
do that.
00:27:54.60\00:27:55.10
And it includes the postage.
00:27:55.37\00:27:57.07
So for 49 cents, you get the
little booklet that's already
00:27:57.07\00:28:00.38
been sponsored and paid for it.
00:28:00.38\00:28:01.71
Then it gets
inserted into the envelope.
00:28:01.71\00:28:01.74
You get the flyer and the
postage is paid and it will be
00:28:03.65\00:28:07.38
mailed out into churches
across the United States.
00:28:07.38\00:28:10.72
So $10 would do
like 20 churches.
00:28:10.99\00:28:13.09
It would.
00:28:13.32\00:28:13.82
Churches.
00:28:13.92\00:28:14.42
$10.
00:28:14.42\00:28:14.92
20 churches.
00:28:15.06\00:28:16.06
Then those churches, once they
get them to pastor, see them,
00:28:16.32\00:28:19.69
they may be 150, maybe 50, 100,
200 from each church who says,
00:28:19.83\00:28:25.23
we want those.
00:28:25.47\00:28:26.13
Correct.
00:28:26.13\00:28:26.63
We want to pass them out.
00:28:26.77\00:28:27.70
No, this is huge.
00:28:27.80\00:28:30.21
oh, I really want to write
a check, we still do that too.
00:28:30.27\00:28:32.84
We do.
00:28:32.84\00:28:36.21
either the LGBTQ booklet or
you could mark church mailing.
00:28:36.21\00:28:40.72
That's good.
00:28:40.98\00:28:43.45
Church mailing.
00:28:44.05\00:28:44.45
Because these booklets
are going into churches.
00:28:45.09\00:28:46.69
So either way works.
00:28:46.72\00:28:47.86
Or you can go online if you
want to donate online to www
00:28:48.16\00:28:51.09
.3ABN.tv and the
fund code is 350.
00:28:51.09\00:28:55.56
Just look for that.
00:28:55.80\00:28:57.07
And you can sponsor this
booklet going into churches.
00:28:57.47\00:29:01.34
So we're super excited about
this evangelistic opportunity.
00:29:01.67\00:29:04.91
I mean, it's a great
opportunity for evangelism.
00:29:05.44\00:29:06.98
You know, a lot of times people
go door to door and hand out
00:29:07.08\00:29:09.68
books, but I
know some can't time.
00:29:09.68\00:29:11.55
They're so busy
or just not able to.
00:29:11.58\00:29:13.05
So you think about this.
00:29:13.05\00:29:13.08
You can be a missionary, so
to speak, without actually going
00:29:14.35\00:29:17.35
out and knocking on doors.
00:29:17.35\00:29:18.25
If you can't, you
can just sponsor these.
00:29:18.25\00:29:20.09
This is going to churches.
00:29:20.09\00:29:21.22
Looks like Mr. Danny was saying
that represents who knows how
00:29:21.32\00:29:23.96
many members at the church.
00:29:23.96\00:29:25.19
So to me as a kid, we had
an old farm pond and I like to
00:29:25.73\00:29:29.66
skip rocks or throw
rocks into that pond.
00:29:29.66\00:29:31.47
And I like to
watch the ripples, right?
00:29:31.47\00:29:33.17
So I throw one stone in into
the water and man, it would get
00:29:33.17\00:29:36.27
bigger and bigger,
more and more ripples.
00:29:36.27\00:29:37.81
To me, I'm not saying
these books are stones, but I'm
00:29:37.84\00:29:40.61
saying they represent a ripple,
something that starts a ripple.
00:29:40.61\00:29:43.51
And so this gets
bigger and bigger and bigger.
00:29:43.55\00:29:45.68
So I'm excited.
00:29:45.75\00:29:46.61
We're talking about being
prepared for opportunities for
00:29:46.95\00:29:49.95
evangelism.
00:29:49.95\00:29:54.09
You jump on board evangelism
projects that 3ABM puts out
00:29:54.26\00:29:57.39
there.
00:29:57.39\00:30:00.73
evening and in the coming
weeks, we're excited about it
00:30:00.73\00:30:03.16
because God's going to do
marvelous and great things
00:30:03.16\00:30:05.37
through this project.
00:30:05.37\00:30:06.77
And already has.
00:30:06.80\00:30:10.71
results already coming back.
00:30:10.71\00:30:12.17
You know, this
reminds me of about 19...
00:30:12.41\00:30:15.18
I graduated high school in 1969.
00:30:15.18\00:30:17.55
1970, I spent a year
doing literature evangelism.
00:30:18.31\00:30:21.48
Door to door.
00:30:21.65\00:30:24.35
You can go door to door.
00:30:24.42\00:30:25.35
That's a pretty
tough way to make a living.
00:30:25.59\00:30:27.16
Let me tell you, it is.
00:30:27.19\00:30:28.42
But I remember one day I'd been
out all day, followed several
00:30:28.96\00:30:33.13
leads.
00:30:33.13\00:30:33.83
If people wanted it, they
didn't have the money for this
00:30:34.30\00:30:36.30
Bible story books, you
know, that we had in a great
00:30:36.30\00:30:39.10
controversy, which
was Triumph of God's Love.
00:30:39.10\00:30:41.24
They put, you know, Desire
of Ages along with the 10.
00:30:41.34\00:30:44.14
So we had these books to sell
and Yvonne, I'd gone all day,
00:30:45.04\00:30:49.38
hadn't really, you know,
nobody seemed to work out.
00:30:50.35\00:30:53.45
So on the way I'm in Benton
and there's a little church and
00:30:53.82\00:30:58.22
it's on South Main and it's
right by the railroad tracks.
00:30:58.22\00:31:01.82
And it's a little church.
00:31:01.92\00:31:03.32
It was Church of God.
00:31:03.36\00:31:04.46
And I remember the
pastor's name was Lloyd Tomer.
00:31:04.73\00:31:07.20
And so, Lloyd
Tomer, I saw a car there.
00:31:07.76\00:31:13.67
So I stopped.
00:31:13.67\00:31:15.24
I said, maybe that's the pastor.
00:31:15.47\00:31:16.67
I'll go ask him.
00:31:16.74\00:31:17.77
So, you know, I'm not
knowing what to expect.
00:31:18.27\00:31:20.78
So I knock on the church
door and open up anybody home.
00:31:20.78\00:31:23.81
So he comes and I say,
oh, pastor, you're the pastor.
00:31:23.81\00:31:26.51
Yes.
00:31:26.75\00:31:29.32
something I want to
show you if you got a minute.
00:31:29.32\00:31:30.99
So I had my case and I opened
up the Bible stories and he
00:31:31.32\00:31:35.69
looked at those and he
said, where did you get those?
00:31:35.69\00:31:38.36
I said, well, I'm selling them.
00:31:38.46\00:31:40.06
He said, you've
got to be kidding me.
00:31:40.06\00:31:40.10
He said, I have 22 around.
00:31:41.73\00:31:44.77
I think it was 22 couples in
my church that are what we call
00:31:44.93\00:31:48.37
the young married couples.
00:31:48.37\00:31:49.80
Oh, wow.
00:31:49.80\00:31:50.54
And every Sunday,
we study out of those.
00:31:50.74\00:31:52.67
Really?
00:31:53.17\00:31:55.81
Christians.
00:31:55.81\00:31:56.28
They don't know.
00:31:56.51\00:31:57.31
They're not ready
for the other stuff.
00:31:57.35\00:31:59.45
So we go through.
00:31:59.68\00:32:00.88
He said, literally, he said,
tell you what I'm going to do.
00:32:01.08\00:32:03.45
I'm going to give you the names
of every couple in my church
00:32:03.45\00:32:03.49
and I'm going to give
you their phone numbers.
00:32:07.32\00:32:09.32
And I want you to call them and
say, Pastor Lloyd said he wants
00:32:09.32\00:32:12.29
you to buy a set of these.
00:32:12.29\00:32:13.53
So because the one
pastor, and they did.
00:32:14.93\00:32:17.40
Did they really?
00:32:17.67\00:32:18.37
Almost everybody.
00:32:18.37\00:32:19.50
There may have been one or
two he didn't, but almost every,
00:32:19.60\00:32:22.37
that's how much
influence these pastors have.
00:32:22.37\00:32:24.77
So one pastor get one of these.
00:32:24.87\00:32:27.11
He can influence literally his
whole church if he reads it and
00:32:27.68\00:32:31.51
supports it and he's honest
at heart and wants to know the
00:32:31.51\00:32:34.98
truth about it because
again, it's not our opinion.
00:32:34.98\00:32:37.02
We're giving you scriptures,
you know, either side, pro
00:32:37.05\00:32:40.29
conda to let you decide,
but it's clear in God's word.
00:32:40.29\00:32:43.86
So from that, that was
the biggest day I ever had in
00:32:44.36\00:32:47.96
literature evangelism, but to
one pastor, because he saw it,
00:32:47.96\00:32:52.23
he supported it, nearly all the
married couples in his church.
00:32:52.53\00:32:56.47
Amen.
00:32:56.74\00:32:57.31
Praise the Lord.
00:32:57.64\00:32:58.24
You know, this is a 3ABN behind
the scenes program and Dr.
00:32:59.01\00:33:02.04
Yvonne, I'm going to come
to you because just this week,
00:33:02.14\00:33:04.51
3ABN's Dare to Dream
Network recorded some incredible
00:33:04.58\00:33:07.68
programs and we can look at, I
know a couple of pictures there
00:33:07.68\00:33:10.65
of this amazing set.
00:33:10.65\00:33:12.59
I mean, the set looks great,
but the content was fantastic
00:33:12.79\00:33:14.89
and it has to do with identity.
00:33:14.89\00:33:16.22
Kind of give us a little sneak
preview because this program is
00:33:16.56\00:33:18.99
going to be coming on Dare
to Dream and of course, I know
00:33:18.99\00:33:20.66
Parent will pick it up too.
00:33:20.66\00:33:21.53
I am so excited.
00:33:21.60\00:33:23.16
Me too.
00:33:23.30\00:33:29.14
a program for children.
00:33:29.14\00:33:31.17
It's called Be
Real, Be True, Be You.
00:33:31.44\00:33:34.31
Alright.
00:33:34.58\00:33:40.68
Amen.
00:33:40.85\00:33:46.09
know, should my
children watch this?
00:33:46.09\00:33:47.59
No, no, no.
00:33:47.59\00:33:52.06
It sure is.
00:33:52.09\00:33:58.17
God's plan for men and women.
00:33:58.17\00:34:01.44
It's just beautiful
and the children loved it.
00:34:01.44\00:34:04.11
They loved it.
00:34:04.27\00:34:05.54
We had children on the set
so I'm just super excited about
00:34:05.67\00:34:09.78
it.
00:34:09.78\00:34:12.28
believe these kids and what's
being taught and how, you know,
00:34:12.28\00:34:16.48
they're all participating and
how beautiful the set and how
00:34:17.09\00:34:21.62
well the whole thing.
00:34:21.62\00:34:22.92
I know you know.
00:34:23.09\00:34:23.59
Yes.
00:34:23.59\00:34:23.89
No, we heard loud nine.
00:34:24.16\00:34:25.33
We heard really positive things
too from like the kids and
00:34:25.56\00:34:27.86
parents, you know, of
like wow, this is incredible.
00:34:27.86\00:34:29.93
You know, it was just really
good and the programs are, is
00:34:30.07\00:34:32.47
it 14 minutes long?
00:34:32.47\00:34:33.74
Or is it 30 minutes?
00:34:34.24\00:34:34.57
14 or 15.
00:34:34.57\00:34:35.34
15 minutes.
00:34:35.34\00:34:36.50
Yeah.
00:34:36.54\00:34:36.57
14 or 15 minutes.
00:34:37.24\00:34:38.37
I think it's 15.
00:34:38.47\00:34:39.07
I think we recorded about
11 or 12 programs this week.
00:34:39.57\00:34:42.88
Yes.
00:34:42.88\00:34:42.91
Amazing.
00:34:43.35\00:34:43.95
Yes.
00:34:44.28\00:34:47.55
so necessary.
00:34:47.55\00:34:53.39
television, social
media, all of that.
00:34:53.39\00:34:55.69
They're not often
getting the truth.
00:34:56.09\00:34:59.29
Yes.
00:34:59.29\00:35:02.80
doing it at every level and
these children range from, I
00:35:02.80\00:35:07.07
think, age 6 to about 12 or 14.
00:35:07.07\00:35:10.01
Okay.
00:35:10.17\00:35:10.47
On the set.
00:35:10.57\00:35:10.97
It's on the set.
00:35:10.97\00:35:11.97
So it's a wide range of
children, of ages, but it's
00:35:12.44\00:35:16.61
just, it's really, really great.
00:35:16.61\00:35:18.41
So when you find out that it's
airing, please watch because
00:35:18.45\00:35:22.38
it's going to be really good.
00:35:22.38\00:35:23.59
And I'm going to, I'm supposed
to interview Michael Carducci
00:35:23.65\00:35:27.06
about the program for an
urban report on Dare to Dream as
00:35:27.06\00:35:30.66
well.
00:35:30.66\00:35:30.99
So yeah, it's
coming and it's exciting.
00:35:31.59\00:35:33.53
And super needed as well.
00:35:33.53\00:35:35.46
Super needed.
00:35:36.53\00:35:37.27
You know what's exciting
to me is that 3ABN is about
00:35:37.67\00:35:40.24
counteracting the counterfeit.
00:35:40.24\00:35:41.17
Sure is.
00:35:41.17\00:35:44.74
you can counteract the
counterfeit by getting this
00:35:44.74\00:35:47.18
booklet, sponsoring it
into churches or watching this
00:35:47.18\00:35:50.48
program about identity.
00:35:50.48\00:35:51.71
We were last weekend in
Huntsville, Alabama, had a 3ABN
00:35:51.91\00:35:55.72
rally there at the first
Seventh-day Adventist Church
00:35:55.72\00:35:59.52
there in Huntsville.
00:35:59.52\00:36:01.02
Dr. William Lee as the pastor
there opened up, a tremendous
00:36:01.06\00:36:05.23
welcome.
00:36:05.23\00:36:05.96
Wonderful people
came in from all over.
00:36:06.16\00:36:08.43
Oh yeah.
00:36:08.70\00:36:12.80
Mississippi.
00:36:12.80\00:36:13.44
Of course, yeah, so it
was an incredible time.
00:36:14.14\00:36:17.24
But what I was reminded of
when we were there is the impact
00:36:17.31\00:36:20.28
that this ministry makes.
00:36:20.28\00:36:21.44
You know, we met people
who said, I'm a Baptist.
00:36:22.01\00:36:25.01
I met one gentleman.
00:36:25.15\00:36:25.95
I'm sure you did as well.
00:36:25.98\00:36:27.18
And he said, this is my second
time in a Seventh-day Adventist
00:36:27.18\00:36:27.22
Church.
00:36:29.98\00:36:32.99
truth.
00:36:32.99\00:36:33.49
I met a lady
who was Pentecostal.
00:36:33.92\00:36:35.46
It was her first time in a
Seventh-day Adventist Church
00:36:35.59\00:36:38.13
and learning the biblical truth.
00:36:38.13\00:36:39.69
So it's just so exciting to see
the impact that this ministry
00:36:39.93\00:36:43.63
is making.
00:36:43.63\00:36:44.17
Oh, I agree.
00:36:44.23\00:36:44.87
And then I met a young man.
00:36:44.90\00:36:45.93
I think he was 17 or 18.
00:36:45.93\00:36:47.60
He's a senior in high
school and he came up with his
00:36:47.60\00:36:47.64
grandmother.
00:36:49.67\00:36:53.94
them to 3ABN.
00:36:53.94\00:36:55.04
Not long ago they got the
flyer, wanted to come to the
00:36:55.11\00:36:58.28
rally.
00:36:58.28\00:37:01.18
rally.
00:37:01.18\00:37:03.35
direction in life, thinking
about going to a Christian
00:37:03.35\00:37:06.32
college versus
some other colleges.
00:37:06.32\00:37:08.02
And so just excited about 3ABN.
00:37:08.12\00:37:10.03
And he was saying, you know,
I've never really been in an
00:37:10.19\00:37:13.29
Adventist Church before,
but this is pretty incredible.
00:37:13.29\00:37:15.10
And it was just really
neat to see the Lord at work.
00:37:15.10\00:37:15.13
And of course, then you
have the members that have been
00:37:17.63\00:37:20.37
Seventh -day Adventists their
entire life, all excited about
00:37:20.37\00:37:22.84
3ABN.
00:37:22.84\00:37:25.77
And then you have people
who came to us and said, we were
00:37:25.77\00:37:30.35
Baptists and we were Catholic,
but we're Seventh-day Adventist
00:37:30.35\00:37:33.95
Christians now because of 3ABN.
00:37:33.95\00:37:35.95
Isn't that amazing?
00:37:35.98\00:37:40.02
ministry.
00:37:40.02\00:37:40.52
Such a blessing.
00:37:40.79\00:37:41.82
And we had some, probably be
20ish now, at our age it's hard
00:37:42.09\00:37:46.66
to tell 20 to 30 now, 20ish
who said, I grew up with 3ABN
00:37:46.66\00:37:52.10
because every time I went to my
grandmother's and one guy said,
00:37:52.10\00:37:55.24
I lived with my grandma most
of my life, that's all she ever
00:37:55.24\00:37:58.11
watched.
00:37:58.11\00:37:58.81
He said, I would have liked to
watch something else but that's
00:37:59.34\00:38:01.68
all we ever watched.
00:38:01.68\00:38:02.64
So consequently, he's
there today and said, you know,
00:38:02.84\00:38:05.91
because of that it's
helped me tremendously.
00:38:06.01\00:38:08.38
And so he said, I
still watch it on my own.
00:38:08.88\00:38:11.02
Not 24-7, but I do
watch 3ABN, he says.
00:38:11.32\00:38:14.46
Wow.
00:38:14.92\00:38:16.62
We do, yeah, of the rally.
00:38:16.62\00:38:16.66
I'm not sure which picture
they're putting up first, but
00:38:17.86\00:38:20.10
when they put them up
then we'll talk about them.
00:38:20.10\00:38:21.93
This is Pastor
John Noah McCain there.
00:38:22.16\00:38:23.87
He taught Sabbath school.
00:38:24.03\00:38:24.90
Beautiful church.
00:38:24.90\00:38:24.93
He and Andy were there.
00:38:25.93\00:38:26.87
So very...
00:38:27.60\00:38:28.80
There's Tim Parton doing some
music on the keyboard there.
00:38:28.80\00:38:31.67
And this is a shot
from the balcony actually.
00:38:31.87\00:38:33.71
Danny, you can't see but you're
speaking there for church.
00:38:33.88\00:38:36.31
Great message.
00:38:36.31\00:38:37.21
It's hard to see because
there's so many people there.
00:38:37.48\00:38:39.58
But great message.
00:38:39.91\00:38:41.28
Yeah.
00:38:41.48\00:38:43.69
And that was Paul and
Curtis Aiken's church.
00:38:43.69\00:38:45.99
Yeah.
00:38:46.19\00:38:46.62
That was really
special to be there.
00:38:47.06\00:38:48.79
And of course,
they were well received.
00:38:48.82\00:38:50.16
And I believe they have one
of the longest running series on
00:38:50.16\00:38:53.46
3ABN, Abundant Living.
00:38:53.46\00:38:54.96
So it's great to be with them.
00:38:55.20\00:38:56.53
Oh yeah, absolutely.
00:38:56.77\00:38:57.33
But just a great...
00:38:57.67\00:39:00.80
Yes, my family was there.
00:39:00.84\00:39:02.50
That was so great.
00:39:02.50\00:39:03.61
And I was thinking about it
and I realized that when I was a
00:39:03.71\00:39:08.08
child I lived in Huntsville.
00:39:08.08\00:39:09.68
From when I was 10 to 13
because my dad went back to
00:39:10.11\00:39:13.21
Oakwood.
00:39:13.21\00:39:13.88
And we went to First Church,
but it wasn't that church.
00:39:14.52\00:39:17.65
It was a different
church, but I thought about it.
00:39:18.02\00:39:20.72
I was like, wait a minute.
00:39:20.72\00:39:21.69
I went to First Church.
00:39:22.02\00:39:23.12
And I didn't get to tell
them that Sabbath, but yeah.
00:39:23.19\00:39:26.16
So it was really great being
back in Huntsville and seeing
00:39:26.19\00:39:29.83
my family, my
aunt Jo, cousins Patty.
00:39:29.83\00:39:33.20
Amen.
00:39:33.47\00:39:38.51
And like you say, they
came from all over some several
00:39:39.11\00:39:41.51
hours around.
00:39:41.51\00:39:42.31
But you don't know
what that does for us.
00:39:42.54\00:39:44.91
You know, people were saying,
I'm so glad, you know, that we
00:39:45.01\00:39:49.42
get to meet in person.
00:39:49.42\00:39:50.45
We've watched you for years.
00:39:50.62\00:39:51.55
We're glad too.
00:39:51.69\00:39:52.59
Because we're looking through
the glass and we're glad when
00:39:53.12\00:39:56.79
you come up and we
know we've talked to you.
00:39:56.79\00:39:59.23
You know, whether it's social
media, whether you're writing
00:39:59.23\00:40:01.20
letters to 3ABN or calling
the prayer lines, whatever.
00:40:01.20\00:40:04.50
And for us, it's such a
blessing to see you and to hear
00:40:04.83\00:40:09.14
your testimony.
00:40:09.14\00:40:10.14
Because you hear
about us all the time.
00:40:10.37\00:40:12.04
So it's so great in these
rallies we get to meet so many
00:40:12.27\00:40:15.54
people.
00:40:15.54\00:40:19.41
and shaking hands with people
and you know, getting to know
00:40:19.91\00:40:22.95
people better.
00:40:22.95\00:40:23.62
And so it's always, we enjoy it.
00:40:23.75\00:40:26.22
We do.
00:40:26.25\00:40:26.92
We really enjoy it.
00:40:27.12\00:40:27.89
It's such a high day.
00:40:27.89\00:40:29.29
Isn't it though?
00:40:29.56\00:40:30.16
Such a high spiritual day.
00:40:30.16\00:40:31.29
You know, and all of us coming
together and people coming
00:40:31.36\00:40:34.83
together to worship the Lord.
00:40:34.83\00:40:36.67
It's just, it's a
little taste of Heaven.
00:40:36.83\00:40:38.50
One almost complaint.
00:40:38.80\00:40:40.54
One almost complaint.
00:40:40.84\00:40:42.50
The food was so
good, I ate too much.
00:40:42.60\00:40:45.51
I almost put myself to
sleep for the afternoon service.
00:40:45.87\00:40:49.08
Did they give a...
00:40:50.58\00:40:51.71
Oh, it was great.
00:40:51.71\00:40:52.41
They had everything.
00:40:53.08\00:40:54.22
The cooks, you know, I'm
always amazed and thank you.
00:40:54.52\00:40:57.29
Those that, I went downstairs
early when I go to churches.
00:40:57.42\00:41:00.42
I like to look, I'm a carpenter
by trade so I get the carpenter
00:41:00.56\00:41:04.16
mentality.
00:41:04.16\00:41:04.89
So before the church started,
I said, I'm going to go check
00:41:05.36\00:41:07.36
this basement out.
00:41:07.36\00:41:08.36
I want to see what's all down
here and see how it's designed.
00:41:08.56\00:41:11.53
I go down and already there
were a number of people, mostly
00:41:11.60\00:41:15.54
the women, that were there
and they were already preparing.
00:41:15.54\00:41:18.57
They were working.
00:41:18.87\00:41:19.67
And I said, they're doing
that just out of servitude.
00:41:20.24\00:41:22.58
They're just saying,
we want to be a servant.
00:41:22.88\00:41:24.98
We want to serve those that are
here, guests coming in, all of
00:41:25.08\00:41:29.08
us from there.
00:41:29.08\00:41:29.78
And I thanked
them ahead of time.
00:41:30.05\00:41:31.45
I said, thank you so much
because when we're upstairs
00:41:31.45\00:41:33.96
with all of that, you're not
realizing all the people that
00:41:33.96\00:41:37.39
are working behind the scenes,
parking people outside, that
00:41:37.39\00:41:40.96
there are people cooking,
preparing things for us.
00:41:40.96\00:41:44.33
And I mean, it was,
yes, thank you so much.
00:41:44.67\00:41:47.60
Thank you.
00:41:47.94\00:41:50.41
I think he said that they have
like 23, I think, for part of
00:41:50.47\00:41:53.24
their staff to do all the media
for the church, LED panels.
00:41:53.24\00:41:55.74
Just amazing.
00:41:55.98\00:41:56.58
But our next rally, Jill, is...
00:41:57.08\00:41:59.61
How did you know I was
thinking you were going to ask?
00:41:59.61\00:42:01.42
Well, you know, we've been
married almost 22 years, so we
00:42:02.32\00:42:04.69
kind of...
00:42:04.69\00:42:05.29
May 18.
00:42:05.29\00:42:05.55
I got the date.
00:42:05.89\00:42:06.65
May 18, we're going to
the Dodge Center, Seventh-day
00:42:07.02\00:42:10.83
Adventist Church.
00:42:10.83\00:42:11.53
This is in Dodge
Center, Minnesota.
00:42:11.59\00:42:13.23
So we're going from south up
to north, but this is in May, so
00:42:13.36\00:42:16.97
the weather should be
really good this year.
00:42:16.97\00:42:18.67
We are looking forward to being
there on May 18 Sabbath, so if
00:42:19.00\00:42:23.44
you're anywhere in
the area, come on out.
00:42:23.44\00:42:25.94
We would love to meet you and
love to spend that Sabbath with
00:42:25.97\00:42:29.74
you.
00:42:29.74\00:42:33.65
provided by the church, and
then an afternoon of music and
00:42:33.65\00:42:36.52
testimony.
00:42:36.52\00:42:37.05
So we would love that.
00:42:37.05\00:42:38.35
And speaking of coming on out
or coming on down, we have our
00:42:38.55\00:42:42.99
3 of You in Camp meeting.
00:42:42.99\00:42:43.86
This is June 5 through 8.
00:42:44.39\00:42:47.23
The theme is Preparation
for the Final Crisis.
00:42:47.40\00:42:50.67
What an amazing
lineup of speakers.
00:42:50.80\00:42:53.10
Pastor Doug Batchelor,
Sebastian Braxton, Christopher
00:42:53.54\00:42:56.47
Hudson, Ryan Johnson, Ron
Kelly, Lonnie Milashenko, and
00:42:56.47\00:43:01.04
David Shin, as well as
our speakers internally.
00:43:01.04\00:43:03.21
So just an incredible
lineup of speakers and music.
00:43:03.61\00:43:06.75
I know, Mr. Danny, I'm sure
you want to speak into that.
00:43:07.65\00:43:10.15
We have children's meetings,
so Aunt Francine's working with
00:43:10.92\00:43:14.12
NAPS and the other teachers
to have an incredible lineup for
00:43:14.12\00:43:17.36
the young people to
be learning as well.
00:43:17.36\00:43:19.63
The food will be
complimentary again.
00:43:20.30\00:43:22.73
I just talked to a woman
this week who called in and she
00:43:23.06\00:43:25.60
said, I'm coming in my whole
family and we're bringing a
00:43:25.60\00:43:28.24
tent.
00:43:28.24\00:43:28.47
She was all excited.
00:43:28.77\00:43:30.64
So we are so
looking forward to that.
00:43:31.07\00:43:33.07
I know that the RV Park over
the bath house is completely
00:43:33.11\00:43:37.15
full, but we still have a
couple slots open by the call
00:43:37.15\00:43:40.25
center.
00:43:40.25\00:43:40.72
So we still have
a couple RV spots.
00:43:41.42\00:43:43.22
It has full hookup, electric
and water and all that stuff.
00:43:43.72\00:43:46.25
Sewer.
00:43:46.25\00:43:46.65
Thank you.
00:43:47.09\00:43:51.56
whether you bring your RV,
you need to reserve for your RV.
00:43:51.56\00:43:55.10
So you can call us right
now and just say you want to
00:43:55.23\00:43:57.40
reserve and we'd be
happy to handle that for you.
00:43:57.40\00:44:01.10
Or you can stay
in local area hotel.
00:44:01.10\00:44:04.24
So we're just looking forward
to meeting you and to having a
00:44:04.24\00:44:07.68
time of spiritual renewal.
00:44:07.68\00:44:09.51
It is that.
00:44:10.85\00:44:12.11
Experiencing not just
fellowship, which is a
00:44:13.35\00:44:15.62
beautiful thing.
00:44:15.62\00:44:20.22
and time in prayer and
time in worship and music.
00:44:20.22\00:44:24.13
So it's going to be
a spirit filled time.
00:44:24.19\00:44:25.73
I enjoy camp meeting.
00:44:26.66\00:44:27.83
It's a great time of fellowship.
00:44:28.40\00:44:30.20
It's a great family time as
Jill was mentioning and a great
00:44:30.50\00:44:33.94
theme to preparation
for the final crisis.
00:44:33.94\00:44:36.34
Mr. Danny, I know you usually
always have the divine worship
00:44:36.94\00:44:40.08
hour message.
00:44:40.08\00:44:40.98
Any thoughts?
00:44:41.08\00:44:42.08
Can I ask, kind of put
you on the spot on that?
00:44:42.14\00:44:43.35
You kind of
thinking about for the kids?
00:44:43.45\00:44:45.08
Oh, yeah.
00:44:45.21\00:44:47.82
several books.
00:44:47.82\00:44:48.52
All right.
00:44:48.55\00:44:49.28
But literally, I could
easily do a couple of books.
00:44:49.68\00:44:52.12
But now I've got to take
all this down and shorten it.
00:44:52.69\00:44:56.16
But basically, I mean, we
could change it at any time.
00:44:56.73\00:45:00.10
But the title of it, we
are not, we are not the remnant
00:45:00.70\00:45:04.17
church.
00:45:04.17\00:45:04.63
Oh, my.
00:45:04.83\00:45:05.43
Then we do dot, dot, dot, yet.
00:45:05.73\00:45:08.30
Okay.
00:45:08.77\00:45:09.17
We might have to do an edit.
00:45:12.91\00:45:14.54
I'm just kidding.
00:45:14.91\00:45:15.21
I like this.
00:45:16.21\00:45:16.81
So say that one more time.
00:45:16.81\00:45:16.85
We are not the
remnant church yet.
00:45:17.68\00:45:20.65
Yeah.
00:45:21.08\00:45:21.35
Wow.
00:45:21.58\00:45:22.15
It doesn't mean
we don't have to be.
00:45:22.45\00:45:23.69
It doesn't mean we
won't end up being.
00:45:23.79\00:45:25.32
But we're going
to go through a lot.
00:45:25.39\00:45:26.65
We're going through shaking now.
00:45:26.79\00:45:27.92
We'll talk about that.
00:45:27.92\00:45:29.32
Pouring the ladder rain.
00:45:29.62\00:45:30.79
Amen.
00:45:30.79\00:45:34.20
We have to deal with this.
00:45:34.56\00:45:35.63
We have to deal.
00:45:35.73\00:45:36.67
We'll be hitting some on
abortion and what the Bible
00:45:36.87\00:45:39.33
says about it.
00:45:39.33\00:45:40.10
So things that we believe that
are necessary that we have to
00:45:40.60\00:45:45.24
deal with because
it's dealing with us.
00:45:45.24\00:45:47.11
So either we deal with these
topics in the church or they
00:45:47.78\00:45:50.71
deal with us.
00:45:50.71\00:45:51.58
And that's what's
happening right now.
00:45:51.61\00:45:53.42
We've been taking a beating.
00:45:53.42\00:45:54.55
So my dad used to say to me
when I was a kid at home, if
00:45:55.32\00:45:58.62
he'd say, hey
son, you do it again.
00:45:58.62\00:46:00.06
Maybe I was too
loud or did something.
00:46:00.12\00:46:01.56
You do that again and I'm
going to turn you every way but
00:46:01.72\00:46:04.36
loose.
00:46:04.36\00:46:04.93
Now, I don't know to this day
exactly what move that would be
00:46:05.59\00:46:10.20
to turn me every way but loose,
but I knew it wasn't good.
00:46:10.20\00:46:12.90
I knew it was going to be bad.
00:46:13.37\00:46:14.94
So I said, okay, okay,
I'm going to straighten up.
00:46:15.34\00:46:18.04
So I think the devil is turning
us, this church, turning us
00:46:18.11\00:46:22.14
every way but loose right now.
00:46:22.14\00:46:23.88
But we don't
have to stay in that.
00:46:24.05\00:46:25.98
Amen.
00:46:25.98\00:46:31.59
wrestling hold or maneuver.
00:46:31.59\00:46:32.79
We can be freed from that
by getting back to God and
00:46:32.89\00:46:37.23
confessing our sins and saying,
Lord, give us the courage and
00:46:37.23\00:46:40.33
spiritual wisdom to go forward
regardless of what people
00:46:40.33\00:46:43.73
think.
00:46:43.73\00:46:45.13
So we're not on the left,
we're not on the right, we're on
00:46:45.47\00:46:47.87
God's side.
00:46:47.87\00:46:48.97
And so we'll be talking
some about the left, we'll be
00:46:48.97\00:46:51.97
talking some about the right.
00:46:51.97\00:46:53.21
And so will we be
talking about politics?
00:46:53.58\00:46:55.78
Probably, but it's not going to
be this side's bad, this side's
00:46:56.08\00:47:00.92
bad.
00:47:00.92\00:47:04.05
come from the Lord.
00:47:04.05\00:47:05.02
What we see the political arena
and what's happening around the
00:47:05.49\00:47:08.12
world, we need to be sticking
to the Bible and do not let our
00:47:08.12\00:47:11.93
politics interfere
with the Bible truths.
00:47:11.93\00:47:14.96
Yeah.
00:47:15.40\00:47:15.66
Amen.
00:47:15.83\00:47:16.20
That's true.
00:47:16.20\00:47:16.93
Well I'm looking
forward to that already.
00:47:17.17\00:47:18.67
Yes.
00:47:19.03\00:47:19.57
Yeah, praise the Lord.
00:47:19.57\00:47:19.60
He's been working on it.
00:47:20.40\00:47:21.44
I'm having her, I told her
that I want her to have the car
00:47:21.57\00:47:25.84
running, the engine running, so
as soon as the sermon's over I
00:47:25.84\00:47:30.28
can run out the back door and
take off till we see how things
00:47:30.28\00:47:33.75
are going to...
00:47:33.75\00:47:34.95
Well I think Mr. Danny is
what you do, you'll stand at the
00:47:34.95\00:47:36.89
back of the building and
everyone can say hello to you
00:47:36.89\00:47:38.79
and greet you at
the end of the message.
00:47:38.79\00:47:40.16
That's right.
00:47:40.39\00:47:43.43
really great is that you
say Lord, hear my, I'm a servant
00:47:43.43\00:47:47.76
that is willing to be used of
you Father and He has used you
00:47:47.76\00:47:51.43
all these years.
00:47:51.43\00:47:52.07
So that's what you're doing.
00:47:52.07\00:47:52.80
Some of these topics some
people like to say they're
00:47:53.20\00:47:55.27
political and you shouldn't
talk about them but they're
00:47:55.27\00:47:56.94
not.
00:47:56.94\00:48:01.38
like, which is really standing
on the Word of God and so often
00:48:01.38\00:48:04.78
it's incredible to me that
people will say some of the
00:48:04.78\00:48:07.22
stuff that's in the Bible and
say that's political, but no,
00:48:07.22\00:48:09.62
it's not.
00:48:09.75\00:48:10.35
God wrote it.
00:48:10.52\00:48:11.49
So don't throw that out.
00:48:11.59\00:48:12.95
They can accuse 3ABN of
being political but we're not.
00:48:13.22\00:48:15.66
We're standing on
what the Word of God is.
00:48:15.69\00:48:17.06
You're pointing that
out in a great balanced way.
00:48:17.33\00:48:20.46
See that's the critical thing.
00:48:20.66\00:48:21.76
I've heard some people that
will maybe take the same topic
00:48:21.86\00:48:24.40
but go way off in
left or right field.
00:48:24.40\00:48:26.60
But to me you're taking a very
balanced approach the same as
00:48:27.04\00:48:29.24
this book right here.
00:48:29.24\00:48:30.24
It's full of love for human
mankind, our brothers and our
00:48:30.47\00:48:34.34
sisters.
00:48:34.34\00:48:34.91
So again, your messages that
you have done and I know the
00:48:35.54\00:48:37.65
Lord is going to do the same.
00:48:37.65\00:48:38.48
So thank you for
standing for truth.
00:48:38.48\00:48:39.85
That's to me a great
strength and a great gift.
00:48:40.85\00:48:44.09
And not only to be able to
present it but to be able to
00:48:44.75\00:48:47.49
present it in a very clear
logical way that makes sense.
00:48:47.49\00:48:51.73
And you said earlier you're
not an attorney but I think God
00:48:51.76\00:48:54.63
gave you an
attorney cup of mine.
00:48:54.63\00:48:56.06
It's a special gift
that God has given to you.
00:48:57.07\00:48:58.90
So thank you for being willing
to share it because we talk
00:48:58.93\00:49:01.90
about it in the positive
aspects but also you get hit
00:49:01.90\00:49:04.57
hard too because a lot of
people like to point daggers
00:49:04.57\00:49:07.91
and things like that so to
speak but you don't waver and
00:49:07.91\00:49:10.65
you don't shake at that.
00:49:10.65\00:49:11.68
So praise the Lord.
00:49:12.18\00:49:13.11
Thank you very much
for being a faithful man.
00:49:13.15\00:49:14.58
Ever since I was a kid I was
very opinionated and I'm very
00:49:14.78\00:49:18.02
open.
00:49:18.02\00:49:23.22
a kid I would tell her about it
and worry about whether we had
00:49:23.22\00:49:26.06
to fight or not later
but always was opinionated.
00:49:26.06\00:49:29.13
You know, no I don't agree with
that and you know, blah, blah,
00:49:29.56\00:49:32.53
blah.
00:49:32.57\00:49:37.11
gonna be your greatest
blessing or your biggest curse.
00:49:37.11\00:49:40.34
So he said it will
be one or the other.
00:49:41.04\00:49:43.18
You're not somebody who's just
gonna go along and meander and
00:49:43.55\00:49:46.88
nobody knows.
00:49:46.88\00:49:50.95
you're gonna be so
you're, so it's up.
00:49:50.95\00:49:53.42
So today I've been dedicating
for many years trying to but
00:49:53.69\00:49:57.19
I'm asking God to let it
be a blessing and not a curse.
00:49:57.19\00:50:00.93
But sometimes, you know,
self comes through and we don't
00:50:02.03\00:50:05.00
intend to so when we do we take
the credit for the bad things
00:50:05.00\00:50:08.67
only.
00:50:08.67\00:50:09.30
Give God the credit
for the good things.
00:50:09.60\00:50:10.97
Jill before, yeah,
you're having that book.
00:50:11.81\00:50:13.38
That's great.
00:50:13.61\00:50:14.21
Yes.
00:50:14.28\00:50:14.71
I saw you.
00:50:14.91\00:50:15.78
So I think we should talk
about that one more time because
00:50:16.08\00:50:17.95
we're gonna be playing some
musical chairs here and I know
00:50:17.95\00:50:19.95
you guys will be hearing this
for the second hour but let's
00:50:19.95\00:50:22.15
talk about that.
00:50:22.15\00:50:27.39
United States.
00:50:27.39\00:50:33.93
booklet inserted into an
envelope as well as a flyer.
00:50:33.93\00:50:37.30
So all of those
items, 49 cents per church.
00:50:37.57\00:50:40.70
So that's incredible.
00:50:40.90\00:50:42.00
Starting out with
73,000 Baptist churches.
00:50:43.04\00:50:46.04
That's right.
00:50:46.04\00:50:47.01
They're gonna go to several
hundred thousand more churches.
00:50:47.24\00:50:50.05
So virtually every
church in America will have this
00:50:50.25\00:50:52.98
information and inside
it also has about 3ABN.
00:50:52.98\00:50:56.38
Sure does.
00:50:56.89\00:51:00.49
YouTube, Dish,
Fios, all the way down.
00:51:00.99\00:51:03.73
So there will be information
that will put them in contact
00:51:04.03\00:51:07.03
with 3ABN.
00:51:07.60\00:51:08.63
So you can call us
right now, 618-627-4651.
00:51:09.10\00:51:14.14
That number
again is 618-627 -4651.
00:51:14.67\00:51:17.97
All you have to say is I want
to sponsor this booklet going
00:51:18.37\00:51:21.94
into churches.
00:51:21.94\00:51:23.01
Or you can go online, 3ABN.TV,
and you click on the donate tab
00:51:23.18\00:51:28.42
and you just scroll
down to fund code 350.
00:51:28.42\00:51:30.92
So this would sponsor the LGBTQ
booklet or you could just call
00:51:31.22\00:51:34.59
church mailing
going out into churches.
00:51:34.59\00:51:37.43
So we want to distribute this
into churches that can then be
00:51:37.49\00:51:41.33
shared within their communities.
00:51:41.33\00:51:43.30
Oh yeah, absolutely.
00:51:43.60\00:51:44.60
You know, we're
going forward in faith.
00:51:45.00\00:51:47.34
I've already
talked to Eric Wiesner.
00:51:47.50\00:51:49.04
I said we need to start
moving some pallets up to the
00:51:49.20\00:51:51.14
inserting house which is the
mailing house that does all the
00:51:51.14\00:51:53.54
inserting.
00:51:53.54\00:51:57.18
Spirit, the funds will come in.
00:51:57.18\00:51:58.51
We're not concerned about that.
00:51:58.51\00:51:58.55
to get this Gospel out there
to the churches and so we're
00:51:59.68\00:52:02.75
sending pallets out, already
stuff is in the works to have
00:52:02.75\00:52:05.05
it printed.
00:52:05.05\00:52:05.79
So I'm again just really,
really excited about this
00:52:06.19\00:52:08.62
opportunity.
00:52:08.62\00:52:09.52
Yeah, and I'd like to encourage
the people too because so many
00:52:09.86\00:52:12.33
times they want to pat you on
the back and say thank you for
00:52:12.33\00:52:15.03
what you're doing but this
is an opportunity for you to do
00:52:15.03\00:52:18.03
something if you're not already
that you can do something too
00:52:18.03\00:52:21.57
and helping promote and we have
a number of books called The
00:52:21.57\00:52:25.71
Truth About series and so
getting the truth out, this
00:52:25.71\00:52:29.18
happens to be one can the
Christian Church affirm LGBTQ+.
00:52:29.18\00:52:33.35
So we're asking you to pray
and ask the Holy Spirit what he
00:52:33.98\00:52:37.72
would have you to do.
00:52:37.72\00:52:38.79
If you think about it, $25 can
sponsor this going to 25 or 50
00:52:38.99\00:52:45.29
separate churches, 50 churches
of pastors, 50 pastors and
00:52:45.29\00:52:49.96
churches for literally $25.
00:52:49.96\00:52:52.77
I mean that is amazing and
thank you for negotiating and
00:52:53.54\00:52:58.04
all the work you've done, get
the prices down and both of you
00:52:58.04\00:53:01.81
for what you're doing
to make this possible.
00:53:01.81\00:53:04.05
The team is the one working,
making all the phone calls and
00:53:04.91\00:53:06.88
so yeah, praise the Lord.
00:53:06.88\00:53:07.65
It's amazing because it also
includes the postage too which
00:53:08.95\00:53:12.49
seems like postage
just keeps going up and up.
00:53:12.49\00:53:14.52
Letter or stamp is what now?
00:53:14.62\00:53:16.29
$0 .65, $0.60?
00:53:16.59\00:53:17.49
Like $0.60 for just a stamp.
00:53:18.39\00:53:20.23
Cheaper than a stamp.
00:53:20.23\00:53:20.73
Cheaper than a stamp.
00:53:20.80\00:53:21.90
Yeah, for less than the price
of one stamp, you get the book,
00:53:22.46\00:53:25.33
the envelope and the postage.
00:53:25.77\00:53:28.07
That's right.
00:53:28.07\00:53:33.41
And we actually are paying for
this list just so you know that
00:53:33.88\00:53:36.18
too.
00:53:36.18\00:53:38.38
Jasmine worked really hard on
that aspect too because we want
00:53:38.65\00:53:41.15
to make sure this list is
what's a good term, a good
00:53:41.15\00:53:44.92
valid list.
00:53:44.92\00:53:46.12
We call it scrubbing, current
and they also call it scrubbing
00:53:46.15\00:53:49.06
and so that we want to make
sure that when we send these
00:53:49.06\00:53:51.09
out it's not for not.
00:53:51.09\00:53:52.16
It's actually valid so we're
paying just a little bit, not
00:53:52.33\00:53:55.63
very much at all for these but
they're going through a whole
00:53:55.63\00:53:57.80
scrubbing process and they're
valid addresses to churches.
00:53:57.80\00:54:00.77
We're hoping you're
watching tonight and the Lord is
00:54:01.87\00:54:04.61
impressing you.
00:54:04.61\00:54:08.34
We still get quite a
few checks here at 3ABN
00:54:09.91\00:54:11.81
We do indeed.
00:54:11.81\00:54:15.52
check, church mailing,
of course our address, P.O.
00:54:15.52\00:54:18.25
Box 220, West Frankfort,
Illinois, 62896 and you can
00:54:18.25\00:54:23.09
just send that check in as well.
00:54:23.09\00:54:24.33
Amen.
00:54:24.39\00:54:24.79
Yeah, Dr. Vaughn.
00:54:25.06\00:54:29.53
there's victory in Christ.
00:54:29.53\00:54:30.73
So you're not stuck in a place
of where there's no victory.
00:54:31.40\00:54:37.71
There's victory in
Christ so it's really positive.
00:54:37.84\00:54:39.97
It's not leaving people or
woe is me or you know in despair
00:54:40.28\00:54:44.61
right?
00:54:44.61\00:54:45.25
This is so hopeful because
again it's scriptural, it's
00:54:45.78\00:54:50.85
biblical you know 1 Corinthians
6, 9 through 11 you know where
00:54:50.85\00:54:56.36
such were some of you.
00:54:56.36\00:54:57.86
That's right.
00:54:57.86\00:55:03.16
will be able to all be together
but the issue has to be laid
00:55:03.16\00:55:07.77
out there for people to
understand, to know and then to
00:55:07.77\00:55:11.44
know how to deal with it and
that's what we have biblically
00:55:11.44\00:55:14.61
in here so I'm really thankful.
00:55:14.61\00:55:16.61
Yeah, God has to be ahead of
the church if he's not it's all
00:55:16.91\00:55:21.82
in vain everything that we
do and so we have to give the
00:55:21.82\00:55:25.89
truth to lost and dying world
and if we're not willing to
00:55:25.89\00:55:28.72
stand up for truth it's
going to end up destroying us.
00:55:28.72\00:55:33.23
absolutely.
00:55:34.60\00:55:38.93
because so often we don't talk
about that aspect and that is
00:55:38.93\00:55:42.34
such a freeing point to like
wow I can have victory over any
00:55:42.34\00:55:46.24
sin and God is the one that has
the strength because so often
00:55:46.24\00:55:49.51
it's like we try to do
it ourselves then we become
00:55:49.51\00:55:51.91
discouraged, become our worst
critic and then you give up
00:55:51.91\00:55:55.25
well that's what Satan wants so
it's in the book like you said
00:55:55.25\00:55:58.29
the victory aspect
too so well balanced.
00:55:58.29\00:56:01.52
Amen.
00:56:02.16\00:56:03.63
We are indeed.
00:56:03.79\00:56:04.86
Just going back to camp meeting
for one moment we're asking for
00:56:05.73\00:56:10.37
volunteers to come in before
camp meeting and to help us
00:56:10.37\00:56:14.84
collate the prison
ministry Bible studies.
00:56:14.84\00:56:17.57
They just arrived last week
and this week so we're super
00:56:17.91\00:56:20.94
excited about
getting that into prisons.
00:56:20.94\00:56:22.98
You know 3ABN's Bible study
guides that we have available
00:56:23.61\00:56:26.45
and we've been utilizing them
in many different fashions but
00:56:26.45\00:56:29.35
we want them to go into prisons
so that when we send one of
00:56:29.35\00:56:32.52
those lovely study Bibles into
the prisoners who request it
00:56:32.52\00:56:36.09
they'll also get a set of
prison Bible study guides just
00:56:36.09\00:56:40.16
specifically for them so
it has resources for them and
00:56:40.16\00:56:44.37
opportunities so we want to
encourage if you want we have
00:56:44.37\00:56:47.47
volunteers already signed up
if you want to come into camp
00:56:47.47\00:56:50.04
meeting early we would love for
you to come like a week or two
00:56:50.04\00:56:53.58
a week or two early and you
can put together a whole group
00:56:53.58\00:56:56.61
together many hands make light
work my mom used to say and
00:56:56.61\00:57:00.05
that just means a whole
bunch of people we can put them
00:57:00.05\00:57:02.25
together so just give us a call
at we'd be happy to walk you
00:57:02.25\00:57:09.22
through that journey.
00:57:09.22\00:57:10.03
So we're trading out guests
here for the second hour, but
00:57:10.46\00:57:13.03
Mr. Danny and Dr. Yvonne,
we love you both so blessed.
00:57:13.03\00:57:16.33
We love you and love
those of you at home.
00:57:16.67\00:57:18.70
Thank you, great family.
00:57:19.40\00:57:20.17
So blessed to serve in ministry.
00:57:20.17\00:57:20.20
Thank you all so much
for your leadership, for your
00:57:21.54\00:57:23.87
mentorship, for the
privilege of working together.
00:57:23.87\00:57:26.27
I'm very, very grateful for you.
00:57:26.78\00:57:28.21
The God thing.
00:57:28.21\00:57:28.84
Amen.
00:57:29.21\00:57:29.51
It is a God thing.
00:57:29.71\00:57:30.41
God set it up.
00:57:30.71\00:57:31.65
And we have some more
family coming the second hour.
00:57:31.85\00:57:34.32
We're going to hear from
Mr. Pastor and Mrs. Dinzey from
00:57:34.38\00:57:38.15
Ricky and Jasmine
Carter, as well as Jeff Doerr.
00:57:38.15\00:57:40.42
So a full second hour.
00:57:40.59\00:57:41.62
Don't go anywhere.
00:57:41.72\00:57:42.69
We will be right back.
00:57:43.12\00:57:44.69
