I want to spend my life. 00:00:02.70\00:00:08.30 I want to spend my life. 00:00:13.58\00:00:17.71 I want to spend my life. 00:00:35.26\00:00:38.93 I want to spend my life. 00:00:46.04\00:00:50.21 Hello and welcome to 3ABN behind the scenes. 00:01:05.56\00:01:08.00 We're so glad that you have joined us this evening. 00:01:08.20\00:01:10.70 It has already been a full spring, heading into a packed 00:01:10.70\00:01:15.70 summer. 00:01:15.70\00:01:19.27 3ABN Camp Meeting 00:01:19.27\00:01:20.34 We're goona be talking about the upcoming GC session and 00:01:20.48\00:01:23.01 other events that are taking place. 00:01:23.01\00:01:24.95 You know, this is the year at 3ABN. 00:01:25.01\00:01:26.95 We have a theme every year. 00:01:27.08\00:01:28.45 And the theme this year is "The year to go forward." 00:01:28.65\00:01:31.92 So in spite of everything and challenges that are in the 00:01:32.12\00:01:34.82 world, God has told us to go forward, right? 00:01:34.82\00:01:37.23 You've heard Mr. 00:01:37.23\00:01:41.30 world. 00:01:41.30\00:01:44.73 So as we ask you that question, we hope we see your hands going 00:01:45.23\00:01:48.54 up as well because God has called you to do something 00:01:48.54\00:01:51.57 special for Him today. 00:01:51.57\00:01:52.71 But Jill, I love these 1-hour behind the scenes programs. 00:01:52.81\00:01:55.01 A lot going on, it's all about evangelism. 00:01:55.01\00:01:55.04 Amen, we get to let our hair down, literally. 00:01:57.05\00:01:59.21 And that's kind of an inside joke. 00:02:00.35\00:02:02.22 But we just get to be with the family and we get to be with 00:02:02.45\00:02:05.52 you at home and talk about upcoming programs and ways you 00:02:05.52\00:02:09.29 can connect with 3ABN and partner for the purpose of 00:02:09.29\00:02:13.33 evangelism. 00:02:13.33\00:02:14.23 Speaking of family, on the other side of the table we have 00:02:14.46\00:02:16.60 Mr. Danny and Dr. Yvonne, mom and dad. 00:02:16.60\00:02:19.40 So glad to have you here tonight. 00:02:19.53\00:02:20.87 Thank you, it's good to be here as always and good to be able 00:02:21.27\00:02:24.17 to talk to our folk at home. 00:02:24.17\00:02:25.64 And so we're blessed. 00:02:26.61\00:02:28.04 And I love the behind the scenes because we really get to 00:02:28.64\00:02:32.41 communicate with what's going on here at 3ABN. 00:02:32.41\00:02:35.58 And for sure we know that God is blessing. 00:02:35.65\00:02:37.92 Thanks to you and your love and prayers and financial support. 00:02:38.59\00:02:41.59 It's wonderful, we were talking to people this week and they 00:02:42.26\00:02:45.56 said 40 years, we're out in D .C. 00:02:45.56\00:02:47.40 We'll talk about it a little bit. 00:02:47.40\00:02:48.50 I said, John, how do you do that 40 years? 00:02:49.16\00:02:51.90 I said, I don't know how, I couldn't have done it. 00:02:52.07\00:02:53.84 I love it. 00:02:53.90\00:02:54.84 So when are you retiring? 00:02:55.30\00:02:56.67 And I said, well, my job, I really don't retire. 00:02:56.94\00:03:00.41 They say our benefits are out of this world. 00:03:00.74\00:03:02.84 So how do you walk away? 00:03:03.75\00:03:06.08 Now, do I do less and less of the operation? 00:03:06.08\00:03:09.92 Of course I back away and you guys are in charge of that. 00:03:09.92\00:03:12.89 But we're always a part of 3ABN right here. 00:03:12.92\00:03:15.79 So hopefully many of you are the same way because you tell 00:03:16.19\00:03:18.66 us, they say, we've been watching from the beginning. 00:03:18.66\00:03:20.86 So we love and support 3ABN. 00:03:21.46\00:03:23.77 And it means a lot. 00:03:23.97\00:03:24.63 It's a beautiful thing. 00:03:25.07\00:03:25.87 Coming around the table, Pastor John Dinzey. 00:03:26.33\00:03:28.34 I know your beautiful wife can't be with us this evening, 00:03:28.47\00:03:31.14 but you're the general manager of 3ABN Latino and so glad 00:03:31.14\00:03:31.17 you're here tonight. 00:03:34.48\00:03:35.18 It's a blessing to be here. 00:03:35.81\00:03:37.01 And I just rejoice, you know, you look back at the things 00:03:37.05\00:03:40.32 that we have seen at 3ABN and it's amazing how God has 00:03:40.32\00:03:44.09 blessed throughout the years and how he has kept 3ABN on the 00:03:44.09\00:03:47.92 air. 00:03:47.92\00:03:52.99 3ABN. 00:03:52.99\00:03:53.90 There has not been a day that 3ABN has been off the air 00:03:54.20\00:03:56.56 because the finance said, we've come close. 00:03:56.56\00:03:58.30 I said, we've come close. 00:03:58.43\00:03:59.50 It has a couple of stories on that. 00:03:59.73\00:04:01.30 But the Lord on that very day said that you have to pay that 00:04:01.47\00:04:04.81 bill. 00:04:04.81\00:04:08.51 And Danny can talk about that. 00:04:09.01\00:04:10.21 But it's amazing how God has blessed. 00:04:10.21\00:04:11.88 And it's because of viewers and listeners that understand we're 00:04:12.78\00:04:18.12 doing a work that God has led us to do to preach the 00:04:18.12\00:04:21.52 undiluted Three Angels messages. 00:04:21.52\00:04:22.92 And God is blessing this ministry and lives are being 00:04:23.29\00:04:26.59 transformed everyday. 00:04:26.59\00:04:27.56 John and I were here when we were young. 00:04:28.03\00:04:30.27 That's right. 00:04:30.50\00:04:31.33 But you still have spring in your step and you haven't lost 00:04:32.03\00:04:35.54 energy. 00:04:35.54\00:04:35.90 So, praise God for that. 00:04:36.34\00:04:37.14 Yeah, we give God the glory for that. 00:04:37.14\00:04:38.97 Coming around the table, we have Rodney Reynolds. 00:04:39.57\00:04:41.54 Rodney Reynolds, of course, is in charge of 3ABNTT, which is 00:04:41.64\00:04:46.05 3ABN Trinidad and Tobago. 00:04:46.05\00:04:47.45 And we're so glad you're here, Brother Rodney. 00:04:47.52\00:04:49.42 It's a tremendous joy to be here once again to let people 00:04:49.75\00:04:53.49 know how God hands has been in 3ABN Trinidad and Tobago and by 00:04:53.49\00:04:57.59 extension, the Caribbean. 00:04:57.59\00:04:58.49 And so we have some of the projects that's been happening 00:04:59.09\00:05:02.06 and a lot more. 00:05:02.06\00:05:04.07 Amen. 00:05:04.60\00:05:08.14 Over 20 plus years, yes. 00:05:08.87\00:05:11.51 And he still has a spring in your step, too. 00:05:12.47\00:05:14.31 You still have a spring in his step. 00:05:14.44\00:05:15.74 Amen, but yeah, we want to talk about camp meeting just a 00:05:16.88\00:05:19.55 couple of weeks ago. 00:05:19.55\00:05:23.35 sense, but so much has taken place. 00:05:23.35\00:05:25.02 But thank you for those that came to 3ABN's camp meeting 00:05:25.09\00:05:28.79 right here at the facility, the headquarters. 00:05:28.79\00:05:31.29 And always a blessing to get together, fellowship, and to 00:05:31.83\00:05:34.66 spend the time in the Word of God to enjoy, of course, all 00:05:34.66\00:05:38.47 the different meetings. 00:05:38.47\00:05:39.20 And it was a great time. 00:05:39.73\00:05:40.74 It was incredible. 00:05:41.04\00:05:41.97 Why don't we have a roll of it? 00:05:42.07\00:05:43.30 Let's go to a roll and then we can kind of dialogue about it. 00:05:43.30\00:05:45.67 Of course, our theme, Preparing to Proclaim the Final Cry. 00:05:45.67\00:05:48.88 Incredible messages and music. 00:05:49.54\00:05:50.75 So let's go to that roll right now. 00:05:50.85\00:05:52.98 Amen, praise the Lord. 00:07:15.93\00:07:17.00 It was a blessing, wasn't it? 00:07:17.03\00:07:18.40 To have camp meeting again. 00:07:18.40\00:07:20.30 I have to say, you know, at times that I took for granted 00:07:20.84\00:07:24.04 being able to come together and fellowship. 00:07:24.04\00:07:25.74 And then when COVID hit, you realize, wow, these freedoms 00:07:25.74\00:07:27.94 and everything that we have. 00:07:27.94\00:07:28.94 Praise God for the freedoms that we do have here. 00:07:29.04\00:07:31.68 And so camp meeting to get together, always a blessing, 00:07:31.71\00:07:33.92 always encouraged. 00:07:33.98\00:07:34.72 I appreciated your message too, Mr. Danny. 00:07:35.88\00:07:37.42 Also shockwaves. 00:07:37.72\00:07:39.15 It's been well received. 00:07:39.59\00:07:40.72 It's been put on social media, on YouTube and had a good 00:07:40.79\00:07:44.06 response to it. 00:07:44.06\00:07:44.69 A lot of positive comments. 00:07:44.69\00:07:46.09 Well, I'm happy about that because these are not sermons. 00:07:46.09\00:07:50.57 As Jill knows, you don't always just pick out because she 00:07:50.80\00:07:53.44 speaks a lot. 00:07:53.44\00:07:54.50 It seems like the Lord tells you where to go and what to do. 00:07:55.30\00:07:57.91 And so we try to be a messenger, though we don't feel 00:07:58.04\00:08:01.01 like we're always adequate. 00:08:01.01\00:08:02.74 And if I watch back, it's hard for me to watch back because 00:08:03.01\00:08:05.98 I'm like, oh boy, I should have said this or should have done 00:08:05.98\00:08:08.55 this or whatever. 00:08:08.55\00:08:10.09 But I believe the message that God gave me was relevant. 00:08:10.39\00:08:14.09 And so whether the delivery was to my liking or anybody else's, 00:08:14.09\00:08:19.43 I guess is not as important as the message there. 00:08:19.49\00:08:22.33 And so there's the comments from the... 00:08:22.60\00:08:26.23 You can get it on YouTube. 00:08:26.23\00:08:27.44 They put it up I think last Friday night. 00:08:28.04\00:08:30.21 Some of the comments are we were most blessed. 00:08:30.64\00:08:33.58 We read through some where people said this has really 00:08:33.74\00:08:35.98 helped me spiritually and I was about to give up and others 00:08:35.98\00:08:39.91 said this really brought me back. 00:08:39.91\00:08:42.35 So encouraging so you know that God blessed. 00:08:42.35\00:08:45.85 And so in spite of us, God blesses. 00:08:46.15\00:08:48.56 But yeah, we're living in incredible times and as a 00:08:49.06\00:08:54.40 church and as a people. 00:08:54.40\00:08:55.50 And I always say that the internet has changed. 00:08:56.36\00:09:00.44 Social media has changed everything. 00:09:00.54\00:09:02.07 We can't just go out and say things because they can watch 00:09:02.17\00:09:05.57 every word, everything you ever say. 00:09:05.57\00:09:07.48 Every belief as a church and everything you've ever said 00:09:08.41\00:09:11.88 will be brought up because nothing goes away. 00:09:11.88\00:09:14.45 And so as a church, so people are now coming and saying okay, 00:09:14.95\00:09:18.35 is this really true? 00:09:18.42\00:09:19.45 Is this doctrine true? 00:09:19.72\00:09:20.89 Is that? 00:09:20.99\00:09:25.29 reading. 00:09:25.29\00:09:26.13 Proof reading is back and forth. 00:09:26.56\00:09:28.60 And so that part is good but we have to really be careful and 00:09:29.00\00:09:32.13 that's why I try to get all the facts and figures and the 00:09:32.13\00:09:35.24 numbers. 00:09:35.24\00:09:35.97 But it says that the church is in trouble but the good part is 00:09:36.47\00:09:40.68 Jesus is coming soon. 00:09:40.68\00:09:42.31 So while we're seeing a lot of things happening, a lot of 00:09:43.01\00:09:45.68 people we gave percentages of people leaving the church and 00:09:45.68\00:09:48.92 all of that. 00:09:48.92\00:09:49.55 Some of that I got from ANN Adventist News Network. 00:09:50.05\00:09:53.02 And so when you see all of that, you say guess what, 00:09:53.82\00:09:56.49 there's a shaking going on right now. 00:09:56.52\00:09:58.56 We don't have to look in the future but next is going to be 00:09:58.59\00:10:02.30 revival and reformation. 00:10:02.30\00:10:03.60 And so that's what we're really looking for, for that to 00:10:04.17\00:10:07.44 happen. 00:10:07.44\00:10:12.17 going to be here I am ready or not. 00:10:12.17\00:10:13.81 And so if they want to go to... 00:10:14.04\00:10:16.51 You can just go to YouTube. 00:10:16.51\00:10:17.61 I just go to YouTube, put in Danny Shelton shock waves. 00:10:17.68\00:10:21.15 It will come up right away. 00:10:21.28\00:10:22.32 Yeah, or you can put I guess what, go to 3ABN and get it 00:10:22.62\00:10:27.26 there. 00:10:27.26\00:10:31.66 up. 00:10:31.66\00:10:34.93 because we talk about the assurance of salvation which a 00:10:34.93\00:10:39.27 lot of people, the comments are interesting on that because a 00:10:39.27\00:10:43.91 lot of people don't have that. 00:10:43.91\00:10:45.27 And should we as Adventists and some want to say, well Ellen 00:10:45.37\00:10:48.58 White said this and some says she says that. 00:10:48.58\00:10:50.95 But then we go into it, it's very interesting because in the 00:10:51.45\00:10:55.52 long run she does say, you know, that and of course I'm 00:10:55.52\00:10:59.79 going by what the Bible says but I'm just saying about all 00:10:59.79\00:11:02.09 the interest from Adventists. 00:11:02.09\00:11:03.46 She does say that we should know whether we're saved or 00:11:03.46\00:11:06.03 not. 00:11:06.03\00:11:09.13 but when you put it all together, of course we should 00:11:09.13\00:11:11.80 have. 00:11:11.80\00:11:16.60 salvation and always are we good enough? 00:11:16.60\00:11:18.81 And the fact is we're not. 00:11:19.07\00:11:20.51 That's right. 00:11:20.74\00:11:25.68 sacrifice for us, that's how to be saved. 00:11:25.68\00:11:29.05 And then of course we talk about the commandments of God. 00:11:29.08\00:11:32.22 Why the 4th commandment is, we teach it as a command and the 00:11:32.22\00:11:36.42 6th and 7th we teach as choice, some of us. 00:11:36.42\00:11:39.63 And so we just hit some hopefully common sense things 00:11:39.93\00:11:42.96 but things from the Bible. 00:11:42.96\00:11:44.60 And so while some people get upset about it, I've yet to 00:11:45.10\00:11:48.47 have anybody, anytime I've ever brought up some of these 00:11:48.47\00:11:51.57 subjects, I've yet to have anybody send me any Bible 00:11:51.57\00:11:54.14 scriptures. 00:11:54.14\00:11:54.94 I've had talked one-on-one with pastors who are upset but I 00:11:55.34\00:11:58.28 said, well you're Adventist pastor, where's the scripture? 00:11:58.28\00:12:02.32 Show me some scripture that we're wrong. 00:12:02.42\00:12:04.42 And they can't, they never do. 00:12:04.62\00:12:06.02 So it's just something that we're allowing so much stuff to 00:12:06.42\00:12:10.63 come open sin. 00:12:10.63\00:12:11.66 I'm talking, all of us are sinners, we're saved by grace 00:12:11.83\00:12:14.63 but we have to be watchmen on the wall if we want God's 00:12:14.63\00:12:18.97 blessings. 00:12:18.97\00:12:23.17 but crying Sunday law, Sunday law and be looking here, the 00:12:23.17\00:12:26.44 back doors are open and so here comes in all the things, the 00:12:26.44\00:12:29.18 acceptance of abortion and LGBTQ and then we all try to 00:12:29.18\00:12:33.48 excuse it and justify it and we can't. 00:12:33.48\00:12:36.25 So either we're going to be God's remnant people or we're 00:12:36.52\00:12:39.75 not and we have to make up our minds and it's an individual 00:12:39.75\00:12:42.92 thing because there's no one church going to be the remnant 00:12:42.92\00:12:45.86 church. 00:12:45.86\00:12:49.53 commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus, those 00:12:49.53\00:12:51.93 who are willing to give their lives under death if necessary 00:12:51.93\00:12:54.87 for the cause of God. 00:12:54.87\00:12:55.97 So it's a privilege to be able to do it. 00:12:56.37\00:12:58.07 It's very stressful for me because I don't, everybody like 00:12:58.07\00:13:01.61 to do, say things that when I go on rallies and I get to 00:13:01.61\00:13:05.85 share 3ABN miracles, Johnny, like you do, that's 00:13:05.85\00:13:08.92 easy for me. 00:13:08.92\00:13:09.55 I don't even worry about it. 00:13:09.58\00:13:10.72 I don't make notes, do anything. 00:13:10.72\00:13:12.12 This one I'm like glued to. 00:13:12.35\00:13:13.72 I want to make sure I don't get off to the left or the right 00:13:14.29\00:13:17.06 and it's very stressful but I think these are messages that 00:13:17.06\00:13:22.13 need to be heard and so God has given us a platform so we just 00:13:22.13\00:13:26.10 do the best we can and let God do the rest. 00:13:26.10\00:13:28.80 Absolutely. 00:13:29.30\00:13:33.44 especially when you think that a lot of members of the church 00:13:33.58\00:13:36.68 are asleep. 00:13:36.68\00:13:37.48 Sometimes you go to, not that we're saying, oh I'm awake and 00:13:37.95\00:13:40.15 everyone else is asleep but when you go to these churches 00:13:40.15\00:13:42.85 and you see some of these things that are in this 00:13:42.85\00:13:45.32 message, you say, this is a wake up and wake up message. 00:13:45.32\00:13:49.36 So I encourage people to watch the message, listen to the 00:13:49.49\00:13:52.83 message and pray also as well because we're living in 00:13:52.83\00:13:56.87 dangerous times. 00:13:56.87\00:13:57.70 Shock waves, good title. 00:13:58.57\00:14:00.30 I'm not good at making titles but that's a good title. 00:14:00.64\00:14:02.74 It is a great title. 00:14:02.74\00:14:03.81 I believe it's very relevant to the times we're living in. 00:14:03.91\00:14:06.64 You mentioned about the shaking aspect. 00:14:06.68\00:14:08.08 I do believe that we're in the shaking and I believe you 00:14:08.11\00:14:10.41 believe that as well. 00:14:10.41\00:14:11.65 You know Satan would have us be shaken out of the boat either 00:14:11.81\00:14:14.02 side, he doesn't care, right? 00:14:14.02\00:14:15.25 So to us we need to stick to Jesus, look to Jesus in the 00:14:15.35\00:14:18.49 midst of all this that's going on because there's a shaking. 00:14:18.49\00:14:20.39 What do I believe? 00:14:20.72\00:14:21.42 Why do I believe it? 00:14:21.49\00:14:22.56 And then Satan is trying to come in from all these 00:14:22.59\00:14:24.89 different angles. 00:14:24.89\00:14:25.53 And so to me that's the power of 3ABN. 00:14:25.99\00:14:29.26 And that's where again I tell you that 3ABN is making a 00:14:29.40\00:14:32.23 difference in the world. 00:14:32.23\00:14:32.93 We've been all about preaching the truth, the undiluted, 00:14:33.44\00:14:36.30 right? 00:14:36.57\00:14:40.04 also counteracting the counterfeit. 00:14:40.04\00:14:41.81 You know that's where 3ABN is here to preach that message 00:14:41.88\00:14:44.95 loud and clear. 00:14:44.95\00:14:45.95 And I have to say that we appreciate Pastor James 00:14:46.31\00:14:49.58 Rafferty. 00:14:49.58\00:14:55.59 has written a book, Jill, that we asked him to write this. 00:14:55.59\00:14:59.13 Pastor James, are you there? 00:14:59.26\00:15:00.86 Yes, I'm here to be with you, Greg, Jill, Danny, Yvonne, 00:15:02.10\00:15:05.80 Johnny. 00:15:06.20\00:15:06.53 My brother James. 00:15:06.70\00:15:07.14 Rodney. 00:15:07.87\00:15:08.27 My Trinidadian. 00:15:08.54\00:15:09.47 Yeah, Rodney, that's right. 00:15:09.77\00:15:10.94 So we asked you, Pastor James, again talking about relevancy, 00:15:11.14\00:15:14.54 we asked you to, hey, can you write a book in a week? 00:15:14.61\00:15:17.25 And I kind of said it, you know, kind of tongue in cheek 00:15:17.25\00:15:20.05 to see what his reaction was and he didn't miss a beat. 00:15:20.05\00:15:22.08 He just said, absolutely, by God's grace I can. 00:15:22.12\00:15:24.15 So I appreciate that. 00:15:24.29\00:15:25.32 So this book was turned around in a hurry. 00:15:25.35\00:15:27.02 And it's a pivotal topic, an important topic for us. 00:15:27.16\00:15:30.89 Silencing the Accuser, this is the title of the book, A Gospel 00:15:30.99\00:15:34.46 Investigation of the Investigative Judgment. 00:15:34.46\00:15:36.97 So as Danny referenced, so many people, both within the Seventh 00:15:37.10\00:15:40.77 -day Adventist Denomination and other denominations are worried 00:15:40.77\00:15:44.41 about assurance of salvation and we're concerned about that. 00:15:44.41\00:15:47.44 And I think especially within the Seventh-day Adventist 00:15:47.54\00:15:50.05 Church, there's this thought of I'm going to stand before a 00:15:50.05\00:15:54.72 holy God and I'm not good enough to stand in the day of 00:15:54.72\00:15:59.02 judgment. 00:15:59.02\00:15:59.69 And what am I to do with that? 00:15:59.69\00:16:01.12 So this book, Pastor James, that God put on your heart, I 00:16:01.32\00:16:04.89 know Greg asked you, but it was already on your heart, this 00:16:04.89\00:16:07.50 message. 00:16:07.50\00:16:07.86 And this book is biblical, it's gospel saturated. 00:16:09.00\00:16:12.50 We're just so grateful that you took this project on and talk 00:16:12.63\00:16:15.94 to us a little bit about what's in that. 00:16:15.94\00:16:17.97 I will, well, when Greg asked me to write this book, I did 00:16:18.74\00:16:22.18 immediately respond with a yes. 00:16:22.18\00:16:23.85 And I had already had the concepts formulated in my brain 00:16:24.98\00:16:28.25 actually for years and was working on a five to seven part 00:16:28.25\00:16:31.85 series, speaking series. 00:16:31.85\00:16:33.36 But as soon as I realized what I'd agreed to, I called out to 00:16:33.86\00:16:36.66 God and I asked God to help me because I needed, I didn't 00:16:36.66\00:16:40.56 realize, I said yes. 00:16:40.56\00:16:41.90 And I said, wait a minute, this is huge. 00:16:41.90\00:16:43.67 And I needed his inspiration. 00:16:43.67\00:16:45.30 And I saw God provide the 3ABN team, the support for this, the 00:16:45.60\00:16:51.27 whole process. 00:16:51.27\00:16:52.24 3ABN was there, layout design, editing. 00:16:52.34\00:16:54.51 I saw God opening the way with solid support from the 3ABN 00:16:54.98\00:16:59.28 family and really saw the ideas put on paper in a way that was, 00:16:59.28\00:17:06.35 I think, supernatural. 00:17:06.35\00:17:08.52 I know there were forces against this. 00:17:09.59\00:17:11.33 I told you, my computer stopped working right in the middle of 00:17:11.59\00:17:14.20 this. 00:17:14.20\00:17:17.53 And I'm so thankful for what God has wrought. 00:17:17.60\00:17:19.53 In Numbers 23, 23, it says that there's no enchantment against 00:17:19.80\00:17:24.51 Jacob and there's no divination against Israel, that God is 00:17:24.51\00:17:29.18 going to be, according to his time, we're going to say, what 00:17:29.18\00:17:32.68 has God wrought? 00:17:32.68\00:17:33.58 And so this presentation, I think, is vital right now for 00:17:34.22\00:17:38.42 us because it is dealing with the investigative judgment from 00:17:38.42\00:17:42.99 a gospel perspective. 00:17:42.99\00:17:44.33 And many times we deal with it from more of an intellectual 00:17:44.89\00:17:48.36 theological perspective. 00:17:48.36\00:17:49.66 We put in the days and the dates and the proof texts that 00:17:49.73\00:17:53.17 show that this is happening. 00:17:53.17\00:17:54.54 But we don't really nuance why it's happening, what it's all 00:17:54.94\00:17:58.04 about. 00:17:58.04\00:18:01.88 cover, that Jesus Christ is making a judgment in favor of 00:18:01.88\00:18:08.02 the saints. 00:18:08.02\00:18:11.89 is the picture we get of the woman that poured that oil upon 00:18:11.89\00:18:16.09 Christ's feet. 00:18:16.09\00:18:20.16 vindicates us from the accusations of the devil or the 00:18:20.16\00:18:23.83 accuser. 00:18:23.83\00:18:24.50 He silences the accuser's accusations. 00:18:24.73\00:18:26.84 That's what the judgment is all about. 00:18:26.90\00:18:28.37 And of course, according to Romans 8, 27, and according to 00:18:28.84\00:18:33.88 Psalms 139, 23, and 24, God is searching our hearts. 00:18:33.88\00:18:37.91 And that word search in Romans 8, 27 is investigate. 00:18:38.11\00:18:40.98 He's investigating us, and David even cries out, Lord, try 00:18:40.98\00:18:45.55 me, know my heart, investigate me, know my heart, see if 00:18:45.55\00:18:48.59 there's anything wicked in me so that you can lead me in the 00:18:48.59\00:18:51.26 way of her lasting. 00:18:51.26\00:18:52.03 To me, this is the foundation of the investigative judgment. 00:18:52.53\00:18:55.36 God wants to save us. 00:18:55.46\00:18:56.56 He doesn't want anything to come between us and him and our 00:18:56.80\00:19:00.27 relationship with him. 00:19:00.27\00:19:01.10 And so he's going to search our hearts. 00:19:01.14\00:19:02.94 He's going to convict us of sin. 00:19:03.17\00:19:04.44 That's what we're told in John 16, the Holy Spirit does. 00:19:04.57\00:19:07.64 He's going to comfort us. 00:19:07.91\00:19:09.04 He's going to lead us to forgiveness so that we can be 00:19:09.04\00:19:12.01 cleansed from all unrighteousness. 00:19:12.01\00:19:13.38 God is going to make sure that we are saved in the kingdom. 00:19:13.45\00:19:15.92 We have assurance that he who begun the work is going to 00:19:16.12\00:19:19.19 finish the work. 00:19:19.19\00:19:20.02 And that's what the emphasis of this book is all about. 00:19:20.32\00:19:22.89 James, brother James, what was the source? 00:19:23.43\00:19:25.39 Where did you go to to find the answers to this? 00:19:25.43\00:19:28.70 The Bible, the Bible, the Bible. 00:19:29.40\00:19:31.00 So much beautiful, powerful truth in the Word of God that 00:19:31.63\00:19:36.57 lays the foundation for this truth. 00:19:36.57\00:19:39.47 Amen, praise the Lord. 00:19:40.44\00:19:41.68 I love the idea that love and the Gospel are at the root of 00:19:41.71\00:19:48.95 this because I think that we are so often taught something 00:19:48.95\00:19:54.12 different and it is a negative look at the investigative 00:19:54.12\00:20:00.06 judgment versus a Gospel saturated look. 00:20:00.06\00:20:03.57 And so that makes a big difference in the assurance of 00:20:03.57\00:20:08.10 salvation because as Jill was saying earlier you could just 00:20:08.10\00:20:11.14 say, well, did my name come up? 00:20:11.14\00:20:13.61 Did I make it? 00:20:13.81\00:20:14.78 Am I going to be saved? 00:20:14.94\00:20:15.88 Oh, I'm not going to be. 00:20:15.94\00:20:17.15 It's just, it's overwhelming if you don't have at the root of 00:20:17.15\00:20:23.12 that the love of God, His desire to save you as the 00:20:23.12\00:20:28.02 author and finisher of our faith. 00:20:28.02\00:20:30.63 So I'm glad that you wrote this book, dear bro. 00:20:30.63\00:20:34.30 He's my bro. 00:20:34.56\00:20:35.16 I'm glad you wrote this book because I think that it really 00:20:36.36\00:20:41.27 shines a light to me on the sanctification process that 00:20:41.27\00:20:45.01 He's investigating and refining. 00:20:45.01\00:20:47.51 And so searching our hearts and then purifying us. 00:20:47.94\00:20:52.81 We confess our sins. 00:20:52.91\00:20:54.35 He's faithful and just to forgive us and to cleanse us 00:20:55.08\00:20:57.89 from all unrighteousness. 00:20:57.89\00:20:58.99 So I see that as part of the sanctification process. 00:20:58.99\00:21:02.26 Am I wrong in interpreting it that way? 00:21:02.32\00:21:04.53 Now you are right on target because a lot of times God 00:21:05.46\00:21:08.90 can't always reveal to us what we need to know because we 00:21:08.90\00:21:12.57 can't bear it. 00:21:12.57\00:21:13.10 That's what we're told. 00:21:13.13\00:21:16.50 share with you. 00:21:16.50\00:21:17.17 You can't bear them right now. 00:21:17.17\00:21:18.24 Proverbs 4 verse 18 says, The path of the just is like a 00:21:18.91\00:21:22.44 shining light that shines more and more unto the perfect day. 00:21:22.44\00:21:25.28 And I want to illustrate it this way. 00:21:25.28\00:21:26.61 Real quick, Yvonne, because I know you'll be able to relate 00:21:26.65\00:21:28.62 to this. 00:21:28.62\00:21:31.25 Before I met my wife, before I got married, I was a single guy 00:21:32.02\00:21:35.86 living by myself for five years, an Adventist, living by 00:21:35.86\00:21:38.26 myself for five years. 00:21:38.26\00:21:39.09 And I was perfect. 00:21:39.13\00:21:40.10 My toothpaste was rolled up from the bottom. 00:21:40.70\00:21:42.63 My toilet paper was put on right. 00:21:42.83\00:21:44.43 Everything had its place. 00:21:44.77\00:21:46.00 When I met Risi and we started dating and we got married, I 00:21:46.47\00:21:50.17 started seeing things I'd never seen before about myself. 00:21:50.17\00:21:53.17 Then we had kids and then we got a couple of dogs. 00:21:53.68\00:21:56.58 I guess what I'm saying is that God shows us more of ourselves 00:21:56.58\00:22:01.32 many times in the church. 00:22:01.32\00:22:02.65 You know, people want to leave the church. 00:22:02.75\00:22:03.95 Well, the church has got this problem and that problem. 00:22:04.45\00:22:06.35 Well, part of the problem is really us. 00:22:06.55\00:22:09.62 And God is trying to reveal to us how impatient we are, how 00:22:09.72\00:22:13.19 these areas in our lives that need to be purified through the 00:22:13.19\00:22:16.90 church and through other people. 00:22:16.90\00:22:18.13 So I love what you're saying because this is a refining 00:22:18.60\00:22:21.37 process. 00:22:21.37\00:22:24.01 We look at Daniel. 00:22:24.61\00:22:25.64 We look at John. 00:22:25.64\00:22:26.78 We look at Isaiah. 00:22:26.94\00:22:27.81 All of these men, when they saw more of Jesus, they felt they 00:22:28.31\00:22:32.48 were lost, they were undone, they were unclean because of 00:22:32.48\00:22:35.48 words, not necessarily because of actions, but because of 00:22:35.48\00:22:38.35 their words. 00:22:38.35\00:22:39.05 And therefore, we need to recognize because these were 00:22:39.52\00:22:41.92 godly men. 00:22:41.92\00:22:42.56 These were men without blame. 00:22:42.62\00:22:44.26 Even Daniel in the political realm was without blame. 00:22:44.53\00:22:47.23 We don't want to be overwhelmed with the revelation of 00:22:47.66\00:22:51.73 ourselves when we see Jesus. 00:22:51.73\00:22:53.27 You know, assurance of salvation is not always a warm, 00:22:53.27\00:22:56.30 funny, fuzzy feeling. 00:22:56.40\00:22:57.41 It is grounded in what God says. 00:22:57.97\00:23:00.44 It is grounded in His promises to us in spite of how we feel 00:23:00.71\00:23:04.61 and in spite of the revelation of our failures. 00:23:04.61\00:23:06.88 Amen. 00:23:07.42\00:23:07.92 I love that. 00:23:07.92\00:23:09.12 I know we could go a full hour on this, but we have so many 00:23:09.15\00:23:12.02 topics. 00:23:12.02\00:23:14.86 We're giving one copy free at our Thriveon Call Center. 00:23:15.16\00:23:18.16 You can just give us a call and get that. 00:23:18.19\00:23:19.76 Or you can order them in quantities. 00:23:19.96\00:23:22.20 I think there's 10 booklets for $20 or 25 booklets for $40. 00:23:22.20\00:23:27.70 And then once we get the cases in, we'll have breakdown. 00:23:28.10\00:23:30.44 That's basically shipping. 00:23:31.41\00:23:32.14 That includes the shipping, yeah. 00:23:32.24\00:23:33.31 Shipping, that's right. 00:23:33.41\00:23:34.44 So once we get the cases, we'll be able to have a suggested 00:23:34.61\00:23:39.08 bulk pricing. 00:23:39.08\00:23:40.08 That's a better word. 00:23:40.28\00:23:41.15 I would encourage everybody because right now, especially 00:23:42.02\00:23:46.29 with social media and the age we're living in, there's so 00:23:46.29\00:23:49.42 much stuff out there. 00:23:49.42\00:23:50.66 We can call it junk. 00:23:50.69\00:23:51.59 We can call it lies. 00:23:51.59\00:23:52.79 We can call it deception. 00:23:52.96\00:23:54.03 And people don't know. 00:23:54.56\00:23:55.70 They're wanting to find out and we're hearing so much and 00:23:55.96\00:23:58.73 there's so much out there that is on an opposite side of this 00:23:58.73\00:24:03.71 is a terrible thing and this is something that we, you know, 00:24:03.71\00:24:07.14 what in the world is going on. 00:24:07.31\00:24:08.48 But you present it with love and that's what's beautiful is, 00:24:08.51\00:24:12.68 you know, this is all about love. 00:24:12.68\00:24:14.62 And so I think that because so many people are responding to a 00:24:14.78\00:24:18.85 lot of the YouTube videos and all, I think whatever you've 00:24:18.85\00:24:22.82 thought so far, I would suggest you get this book. 00:24:22.82\00:24:25.76 In fact, take them to your church, maybe order by the case 00:24:25.76\00:24:28.40 and pass these things out because they need to be out 00:24:28.40\00:24:32.07 there. 00:24:32.07\00:24:36.81 that's not one of my strengths at all. 00:24:36.81\00:24:38.74 You know, I have strengths on certain, you could say my 00:24:39.14\00:24:41.98 wheelhouse on certain areas, but that really wasn't one of 00:24:41.98\00:24:45.21 my strengths. 00:24:45.21\00:24:46.11 But I'm getting better at it is forcing me, which is good to 00:24:46.41\00:24:50.02 really understand. 00:24:50.02\00:24:51.05 But when you bring out the love in it, then it helps you 00:24:51.15\00:24:54.49 understand rather than just this God up here looking down 00:24:54.49\00:24:58.49 and it's basically we don't have assurance of salvation. 00:24:58.49\00:25:01.50 We don't know we're being judged and he's looking for 00:25:01.60\00:25:04.37 every mistake, you know. 00:25:04.37\00:25:05.93 But when we find out, you know, he's our brother, our attorney. 00:25:05.93\00:25:08.74 He's our judge, everything. 00:25:08.97\00:25:11.14 And all we have to do is to accept him and give our lives 00:25:11.54\00:25:15.51 to him. 00:25:15.51\00:25:19.35 It is indeed. 00:25:19.35\00:25:20.52 They can go on a website, right? 00:25:20.75\00:25:21.68 That's right. 00:25:21.82\00:25:26.45 the booklets that way or you can just call us. 00:25:26.45\00:25:28.42 You can get your free copy to see what it says and then you 00:25:28.46\00:25:31.13 can order it in quantity. 00:25:31.13\00:25:32.39 Pastor James, thank you for being with us tonight. 00:25:32.56\00:25:35.00 We appreciate you and Reese very much and so glad you could 00:25:35.10\00:25:38.50 join us. 00:25:38.50\00:25:38.97 Amen. 00:25:39.60\00:25:41.87 Blessings on you. 00:25:41.90\00:25:42.64 Alright, God bless. 00:25:42.64\00:25:43.27 They're so balanced, both of them. 00:25:44.07\00:25:45.81 That's what I really like. 00:25:45.91\00:25:47.01 The devil doesn't care. 00:25:47.11\00:25:48.28 We always say, which side of the boat you fall out, but they 00:25:48.28\00:25:50.71 go right to the Bible. 00:25:50.71\00:25:51.75 Both of them, if you want answers, have questions. 00:25:51.95\00:25:54.65 It's not my opinion. 00:25:54.82\00:25:55.78 Nope, it's from the Word of God. 00:25:56.75\00:25:57.92 They give you the Word of God and we love that about them. 00:25:57.99\00:25:59.82 It's beautiful. 00:25:59.82\00:26:00.66 Speaking of this topic of Investigative Judgment, 3ABN 00:26:01.59\00:26:04.86 launched their new series, 3ABN Truth for Today, which is a 00:26:04.86\00:26:08.30 mini -series and it takes the first mini-series was on the 00:26:08.30\00:26:11.70 Investigative Judgment and then we'll do subsequent mini-series 00:26:11.70\00:26:15.07 on other topics. 00:26:15.07\00:26:16.17 But the first one was on the Investigative Judgment. 00:26:16.17\00:26:18.84 We had Pastor Mark Finley share Rooted and Grounded, which is 00:26:19.04\00:26:22.81 the biblical underpinning for that. 00:26:22.81\00:26:25.58 Pastor John Lomacane got on trial, which is incredible as 00:26:26.15\00:26:29.88 far as the Investigative Judgment and the vindication of 00:26:29.88\00:26:32.35 the character of God. 00:26:32.35\00:26:33.52 David Shinn shared the prophetic road, which is really 00:26:34.36\00:26:37.13 the timeline of the Investigative Judgment. 00:26:37.13\00:26:40.50 Pastor James Rafferty echoed in the New Testament where we find 00:26:41.20\00:26:44.37 the Investigative Judgment in the New Testament, in the book 00:26:44.37\00:26:47.90 of Hebrews, and Jesus, and John, and Paul all talk about 00:26:47.90\00:26:51.21 that. 00:26:51.21\00:26:55.14 Investigative Judgment and we do have a role about it, don't 00:26:55.14\00:26:57.48 we? 00:26:57.48\00:26:57.78 Yes, we do. 00:26:57.88\00:26:58.98 Yes, Jill was just mentioning those speakers that came here 00:26:59.15\00:27:01.88 and what a blessing. 00:27:01.88\00:27:02.78 And you can find those sermons on YouTube. 00:27:03.25\00:27:06.82 Is that right? 00:27:06.82\00:27:06.86 Yes, that's right. 00:27:07.86\00:27:08.92 And also we broadcast them on 3ABN. 00:27:09.89\00:27:12.13 You can get them on 3ABN Plus, our app as well. 00:27:12.19\00:27:16.23 But it's a great, to me, messages that you can actually 00:27:16.30\00:27:19.00 share with those that may be actually wondering or it's a 00:27:19.00\00:27:21.80 great way for you to learn as well because like Mr. Danny 00:27:21.80\00:27:24.04 said, there's so much out there, especially online and on 00:27:24.04\00:27:26.57 the Internet that may raise some questions for you. 00:27:26.57\00:27:29.28 So this is a great way to go and to learn and to study and 00:27:29.28\00:27:29.31 again, we've had a good response to that series. 00:27:32.95\00:27:36.85 And you're doing some translation into Spanish as 00:27:37.05\00:27:38.95 well, is that right, Pastor John? 00:27:38.95\00:27:39.95 Yes, yes, good news, good news, yes. 00:27:40.49\00:27:43.32 We normally in the past before A.I. 00:27:44.13\00:27:46.56 came out with these translations trying to 00:27:46.70\00:27:49.13 duplicate the voice of the individual, we were doing these 00:27:49.13\00:27:51.90 translations and you know, in this case, it would have been 00:27:51.90\00:27:56.00 me doing every single individual. 00:27:56.00\00:27:58.21 But with A.I. 00:27:58.91\00:27:59.77 it gets close to the voice of Pastor Finley, it gets close to 00:28:00.34\00:28:03.95 the voice of Pastor Rafferty and it's going to be a 00:28:03.95\00:28:08.08 tremendous blessing. 00:28:08.08\00:28:08.85 Yes, July 18 and 19, we will have it on 3ABN Latino. 00:28:09.85\00:28:14.16 Wonderful. 00:28:14.99\00:28:15.49 Should we talk about Trinidad and Tobago? 00:28:16.76\00:28:18.26 Let's talk about 3ABN T&T. 00:28:18.53\00:28:20.56 Yes, it was a joy to be at the 3ABN camp meeting. 00:28:21.93\00:28:24.67 For the first time we had a booth there and we had 3ABN 00:28:25.50\00:28:30.01 T-shirts on sale. 00:28:30.01\00:28:31.51 Hold them up, let's see them. 00:28:31.57\00:28:32.47 Yes, certainly. 00:28:32.51\00:28:33.31 This is our new logo. 00:28:33.48\00:28:36.21 With the Hummingbird. 00:28:36.98\00:28:38.01 With the Hummingbird, yes. 00:28:38.01\00:28:39.88 And it was available at the booth for sale and we will also 00:28:39.88\00:28:44.39 be at general conference session. 00:28:44.39\00:28:46.52 So we would love for those who are coming to please come by, 00:28:46.99\00:28:51.56 check out our booth. 00:28:51.69\00:28:52.53 We also have a little souvenir for you, the Trinidad and 00:28:52.89\00:28:55.60 Tobago flag and we have a lot more that we want to 00:28:55.60\00:28:59.80 communicate with you and let you know. 00:28:59.80\00:29:01.27 If you want to, we put together a simple brochure letting you 00:29:01.64\00:29:05.17 know that some of the projects and the activities we do in the 00:29:05.17\00:29:10.28 island is just to give you an idea. 00:29:10.28\00:29:13.15 So if you would like to have one of these brochures, we can 00:29:13.48\00:29:16.08 email it to you, WhatsApp it to you. 00:29:16.08\00:29:18.19 Yeah, that should do for the brochure. 00:29:18.95\00:29:20.86 And it's a joy to let you know that we have been working on a 00:29:21.39\00:29:25.23 project called The Great Controversy When Light and 00:29:25.23\00:29:30.47 Darkness Collide. 00:29:30.47\00:29:31.80 And it has landed in early June and just up to yesterday we got 00:29:32.10\00:29:38.74 the shipment released and now we have unpacked it and it's 00:29:38.74\00:29:44.31 over 800,000 of these beautiful little tracks. 00:29:44.31\00:29:49.62 But what makes it so amazing is the QR code. 00:29:50.22\00:29:53.02 It's the digital version of The Great Controversy in English of 00:29:54.06\00:30:00.53 course and also in Spanish. 00:30:00.53\00:30:02.63 And there is a Bible study available and a whole lot more 00:30:03.57\00:30:07.47 resources, almost unlimited. 00:30:07.47\00:30:09.94 It's one of the most combined ministries all together in one 00:30:10.44\00:30:18.05 platform. 00:30:18.05\00:30:18.91 Anything you need from children to adults in Bible study and a 00:30:19.28\00:30:23.52 whole lot more. 00:30:23.52\00:30:30.13 yesterday, we didn't have volunteers during the course of 00:30:30.13\00:30:34.10 the day because most of them are working full-time. 00:30:34.10\00:30:37.23 And you're here in the United States. 00:30:37.33\00:30:38.67 I'm here. 00:30:39.33\00:30:39.70 So we are grateful for the amazing support of the team 00:30:40.50\00:30:43.30 there, Pastor Ishana June, Billy for letting us use their 00:30:43.30\00:30:49.74 space and their house where we have been storing over 300,000 00:30:49.74\00:30:55.48 plus books for the past seven years. 00:30:55.48\00:30:57.62 And it's been such a tremendous blessing. 00:30:58.49\00:31:00.82 So we offer them payment to help empty the vehicle. 00:31:00.82\00:31:06.23 And they said, no, they'll do it at no charge. 00:31:06.59\00:31:08.23 And one of the gentlemen, he was so impressed to know and 00:31:08.80\00:31:11.13 learn about Trinibion that he took some of the tracks back to 00:31:11.13\00:31:16.00 his church, which is a non -Semina Adventist church. 00:31:16.00\00:31:19.24 And it was just such a beautiful opportunity to know 00:31:19.71\00:31:22.08 that after all this time, we were waiting to have these 00:31:22.08\00:31:25.78 tracks in the island. 00:31:25.78\00:31:26.98 It has finally arrived and it's there for people to have in the 00:31:27.05\00:31:33.49 community at no charge in all the churches and wherever you 00:31:33.49\00:31:37.26 want to place them with permission, put them out there 00:31:37.26\00:31:40.66 as well. 00:31:40.66\00:31:41.00 You've done a lot of track distribution and book 00:31:42.13\00:31:45.53 distribution through the years in the past 20 years to give us 00:31:45.53\00:31:49.07 some of the titles that have come into Trinidad and Tobago 00:31:49.07\00:31:51.87 and been distributed. 00:31:51.87\00:31:52.64 Yes, certainly. 00:31:52.81\00:31:56.54 Christ removed, 224,000 focus and shoot booklets. 00:31:56.54\00:32:00.88 And that moved in seven. 00:32:01.42\00:32:04.22 the salvation, the hill fire. 00:32:04.55\00:32:06.22 And it was just a joy to have that. 00:32:06.32\00:32:08.16 When people see our vehicle on the road, they think it's 00:32:08.19\00:32:11.46 Christmas. 00:32:11.46\00:32:11.96 Because most of them come from the churches and they cannot 00:32:13.53\00:32:17.40 afford shipment like what do, what we do here. 00:32:17.40\00:32:20.97 And it's such a joy after serving 10 years in the 00:32:21.10\00:32:24.71 ministry and in person ministries to know that 3ABN 00:32:24.71\00:32:28.14 finds the resources to have the books printed and make it 00:32:28.14\00:32:31.95 available at no charge. 00:32:31.95\00:32:33.28 That is a tremendous joy and a blessing because I have tried 00:32:33.65\00:32:37.25 in my role to raise funds to bring in a container and it has 00:32:37.25\00:32:42.32 never happened. 00:32:42.32\00:32:42.89 And by the ministry of 3ABN and God Hands Working, we have seen 00:32:43.59\00:32:47.73 almost 1.3 million... 00:32:47.73\00:32:50.33 Amen. 00:32:51.03\00:32:51.70 Literature distributed, received and distributed in the 00:32:52.37\00:32:55.77 Nawa Island for the years. 00:32:55.77\00:32:57.71 And that has been such a blessing. 00:32:58.11\00:32:59.41 We have been trying to also get a lot of projects off the 00:33:01.08\00:33:05.45 ground. 00:33:05.45\00:33:05.65 And one of them, we want to let you know that after many years 00:33:06.85\00:33:11.82 of your love, support and sacrifice, we now have our 00:33:11.82\00:33:16.39 pickup truck. 00:33:16.39\00:33:17.19 And there is a little video clip there with first the 00:33:17.69\00:33:21.90 picture with our Dr. Kern Tobias as well. 00:33:21.90\00:33:26.37 So this is a small video. 00:33:26.43\00:33:28.17 Because you always rented before. 00:33:28.77\00:33:30.41 And now we're able to purchase one, which is a tremendous 00:33:30.64\00:33:33.38 blessing. 00:33:33.38\00:33:33.74 Yes, it is. 00:33:34.24\00:33:37.71 our own pickup with our own signage all over. 00:33:37.71\00:33:41.25 And there's one picture, if it's still available, with Dr. 00:33:41.72\00:33:45.19 Kern Tobias. 00:33:45.32\00:33:45.99 Yes, we took the vehicle there at the Caribbean Union 00:33:46.65\00:33:49.76 Conference of 70 Adventists with the president of the 00:33:49.76\00:33:52.46 conference there. 00:33:52.46\00:33:53.43 Dr. Kern Tobias and also the legend Dr. Clive Dutton and a 00:33:53.83\00:33:58.67 few other pastors. 00:33:58.67\00:33:59.77 They all prayed and blessed for the vehicle and ministry of 00:34:00.27\00:34:04.61 3ABN, how we're able to grow and how we're able to invest in 00:34:04.61\00:34:08.94 our pickup. 00:34:08.94\00:34:09.64 And that the first night we put the signage on, a man came up 00:34:10.18\00:34:14.28 to us from about 50 feet. 00:34:14.28\00:34:16.25 I'm just hearing 3ABN. 00:34:16.48\00:34:18.32 3ABN and the Holy Spirit just saying, I'm waiting for him to 00:34:19.02\00:34:21.79 approach. 00:34:21.79\00:34:24.93 I know what you do. 00:34:25.19\00:34:26.33 I'm a backslide in 70 Adventists and I would love to 00:34:27.40\00:34:30.67 get baptized. 00:34:30.67\00:34:31.30 He got baptized and he said, I want my boys to get baptized. 00:34:32.17\00:34:35.64 They also get baptized. 00:34:35.80\00:34:37.27 So that was just the first night. 00:34:38.21\00:34:40.11 And there are lots of experiences that we have. 00:34:40.74\00:34:43.11 When we're on the road between 5,000 to 7,000 kilometers a 00:34:43.24\00:34:47.72 month, it's a tremendous joy to just be there and see people 00:34:47.72\00:34:51.22 watching, seeing who we are. 00:34:51.22\00:34:53.72 A lot of people don't know we exist. 00:34:53.82\00:34:55.39 A lot of people don't know who we are and what we do. 00:34:55.89\00:34:58.03 And when they see the vehicle, they take a picture of it or 00:34:58.43\00:35:00.90 they just go online. 00:35:00.90\00:35:01.86 They see the social media platforms are very powerful. 00:35:02.33\00:35:05.10 So we are on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat. 00:35:05.40\00:35:09.40 If there's any more, when we discover it, we put it on. 00:35:09.87\00:35:12.27 But it's no charge and it is amazing. 00:35:12.84\00:35:15.94 And sometimes we get like 9 ,000, 20,000 views or people 00:35:15.94\00:35:19.61 just get to see it. 00:35:19.61\00:35:20.78 And these are people, according to the statistics, first time 00:35:20.85\00:35:24.69 getting to know who we are. 00:35:24.69\00:35:26.09 And that's where we've been discovered. 00:35:26.19\00:35:27.46 I think Rodney, the powerful thing is that 3ABN is on 00:35:28.09\00:35:31.13 multiple cable stations there in Trinidad and Tobago and 00:35:31.13\00:35:33.66 across the Caribbean. 00:35:33.66\00:35:34.50 So when you're distributing and going out in the community, 00:35:34.83\00:35:36.56 then people are like, oh, I've never heard of 3ABN before. 00:35:36.70\00:35:38.77 Or if they have been watching 3ABN, they're like, hey, here's 00:35:38.80\00:35:41.80 a connection. 00:35:41.80\00:35:42.40 And so that's that whole, I guess their experience of 00:35:42.97\00:35:47.24 finding Jesus, whether it's seeing Rodney first or finding 00:35:47.24\00:35:50.38 3ABN on the cable station. 00:35:50.38\00:35:51.68 So all the literature, you said 1.7 million. 00:35:51.88\00:35:54.02 Pieces have been distributed. 00:35:54.28\00:35:55.08 They go to fairs and all of that. 00:35:55.08\00:35:56.72 I mean, it's incredible. 00:35:56.79\00:35:57.45 So your energy remains high. 00:35:57.59\00:35:59.09 But they're Rodney all these years. 00:35:59.09\00:36:00.42 So yeah, thank you so much for all the work that you do. 00:36:00.76\00:36:03.12 And your passion for evangelism and first spreading the gospel 00:36:03.29\00:36:06.43 message. 00:36:06.43\00:36:07.13 Talking about GC, you mentioned GC. 00:36:07.23\00:36:08.70 We're all going to be there. 00:36:09.00\00:36:09.86 So Jill, talk to us a little bit about that. 00:36:10.43\00:36:11.43 I know Pastor Johnny has some words on that too. 00:36:11.50\00:36:13.47 So we've been going to GC for many years, not always, 00:36:13.87\00:36:16.87 sometimes we're inside the building, sometimes outside the 00:36:17.07\00:36:19.44 building. 00:36:19.44\00:36:22.91 But this time we have a little room where we can do our 00:36:23.28\00:36:26.68 productions. 00:36:26.68\00:36:27.22 We'll be doing a nightly broadcast. 00:36:27.72\00:36:29.68 So every night there's the meeting from the main stage, 00:36:29.85\00:36:32.89 which would be the mission reports from the different 00:36:32.95\00:36:35.32 divisions around the world church and somebody's 00:36:35.32\00:36:37.96 preaching. 00:36:37.96\00:36:38.23 After that, 3ABN will be broadcasting our nightlight 00:36:39.33\00:36:42.76 program. 00:36:42.76\00:36:43.40 It's called 3ABN Nightlight. 00:36:43.40\00:36:44.80 We'll be doing interviews with the newly elected leadership. 00:36:45.10\00:36:47.97 We'll be hearing testimonies of people from all over the globe 00:36:48.14\00:36:52.17 whose lives have been impacted and changed by the ministry of 00:36:52.17\00:36:56.31 3ABN. 00:36:56.31\00:36:57.38 We'll have a booth there at GC. 00:36:57.41\00:37:00.32 We're doing live podcasts on our social media platforms, 00:37:00.82\00:37:04.09 Brother Rodney. 00:37:04.29\00:37:04.85 So that would be on Facebook. 00:37:05.22\00:37:06.76 That would be on Instagram. 00:37:06.89\00:37:08.19 That would be on the different YouTube, the different 00:37:08.32\00:37:10.36 platforms for the different networks. 00:37:10.36\00:37:12.39 So all of 3ABN's networks are going to be there, all the 00:37:12.39\00:37:16.23 network managers. 00:37:16.23\00:37:17.17 So we'll be doing interviews with the different ministries, 00:37:17.47\00:37:20.30 with the Dare to Dream, with Kids Network, with Latino, with 00:37:20.40\00:37:25.31 Canada, with Australia's going to be there, with John and 00:37:25.31\00:37:28.21 Rosemary Malkovich from 3ABN Australia. 00:37:28.21\00:37:30.31 Brother Rodney's there from Trinidad and Tobago. 00:37:30.78\00:37:33.62 I'm missing Networks 3ABN Francais, as well as other 00:37:34.32\00:37:38.22 networks. 00:37:38.22\00:37:41.02 And we have chartered bus tours to 3ABN for free. 00:37:41.02\00:37:46.96 So that means you can come to the booth and sign up. 00:37:47.23\00:37:50.97 We can fit just about 500 people total for the week. 00:37:51.10\00:37:54.30 We'll be running two buses a day. 00:37:55.07\00:37:56.74 There's about 55 people in a bus, so about 110 people a day. 00:37:56.77\00:38:00.48 Well, coming over to 3ABN, you'll have a tour of this 00:38:01.11\00:38:04.31 studio we're in right now, the Worship Center. 00:38:04.31\00:38:07.25 Have the opportunity to go to our call center. 00:38:07.52\00:38:10.15 We'll give you a little sack lunch and then send you back to 00:38:10.69\00:38:13.69 St. Louis, and then the second bus comes out. 00:38:13.69\00:38:15.92 So it's a wonderful opportunity, especially for our 00:38:15.92\00:38:18.79 brothers and sisters overseas. 00:38:18.79\00:38:20.23 They haven't had opportunity to see 3ABN and be here. 00:38:20.56\00:38:24.00 So we're very, very excited about that opportunity. 00:38:24.23\00:38:26.94 Amen. 00:38:27.60\00:38:28.00 I want to say something about 3ABN. 00:38:28.57\00:38:31.84 Covering general conference sessions, the first one that I 00:38:32.71\00:38:35.94 saw was 1990. 00:38:35.94\00:38:37.68 And I was not able to go, but I was able to watch the reports 00:38:38.25\00:38:42.02 from 3ABN here. 00:38:42.02\00:38:43.22 And it was just marvelous, marvelous. 00:38:43.59\00:38:46.19 And it's very interesting to me that I was in master control on 00:38:46.55\00:38:50.29 a Sunday morning after the GC session. 00:38:50.29\00:38:52.46 And I heard some noise outside. 00:38:53.13\00:38:55.66 I actually saw it in the camera, and I saw two squad 00:38:55.90\00:38:58.87 cars parking in the lot. 00:38:58.87\00:39:00.80 And I go, what's going on out there? 00:39:01.20\00:39:02.67 And then, of course, I go to the window and I said, what are 00:39:03.00\00:39:05.64 these squad cars doing out here? 00:39:05.64\00:39:06.98 I had no idea. 00:39:06.98\00:39:08.18 And I said, well, I'm not going out there. 00:39:08.54\00:39:09.81 I'm going to wait for them to come in. 00:39:09.88\00:39:11.31 So after a while, I saw this car come up. 00:39:13.15\00:39:17.45 I think it was two vehicles. 00:39:17.62\00:39:18.62 And Danny came, and it was the governor general, I can't 00:39:18.82\00:39:22.09 remember what island, that he came to the general conference 00:39:22.09\00:39:26.09 session. 00:39:26.09\00:39:26.49 And he said, he announced... 00:39:26.86\00:39:29.70 Konseka, that's the name. 00:39:29.70\00:39:31.03 He wanted to see 3ABN. 00:39:32.10\00:39:34.74 I came to the GC session. 00:39:35.20\00:39:36.34 He's the prime minister, yeah. 00:39:36.34\00:39:37.41 Yes. 00:39:37.41\00:39:38.01 I said, I'm not leaving this country without seeing 3ABN. 00:39:38.61\00:39:41.08 So the local authorities, police authorities, they said, 00:39:41.34\00:39:45.81 well, we want to... 00:39:46.01\00:39:50.39 And so he came, and yeah, there were police cars. 00:39:50.72\00:39:54.06 They had, from the Marion Airport, we flew in there 00:39:54.42\00:39:57.26 because the GC was at Indianapolis. 00:39:57.26\00:40:00.13 And so we flew there and then drove us. 00:40:00.40\00:40:04.60 And yeah, you're right. 00:40:04.77\00:40:05.63 We had front and back and had police. 00:40:05.63\00:40:07.67 And they said, oh, we have to... 00:40:08.07\00:40:09.90 I said, is this necessary? 00:40:09.90\00:40:11.54 And they said, oh, yeah. 00:40:11.81\00:40:13.31 See, he's in the United States and it's up to us to protect 00:40:13.31\00:40:17.98 him. 00:40:17.98\00:40:18.48 And so it was a great, great time. 00:40:18.81\00:40:21.22 And he was awed by that. 00:40:21.55\00:40:24.35 He said, I can watch it, you know. 00:40:24.35\00:40:24.39 And so I want to see... 00:40:26.79\00:40:29.09 Yeah, and all police escort? 00:40:29.09\00:40:31.56 I mean, they were in front and behind. 00:40:31.59\00:40:33.56 And so he was like, look, we got to get this to Uganda. 00:40:33.56\00:40:37.50 You know, he'd been watching and seeing, keeping up with 00:40:37.77\00:40:41.17 3ABN. 00:40:41.17\00:40:41.80 We were young at that time. 00:40:41.84\00:40:42.90 And so weren't able to get everywhere. 00:40:42.90\00:40:44.84 But he's like, I want to get 3ABN, whatever it takes to get 00:40:44.84\00:40:48.81 it in Uganda. 00:40:48.81\00:40:49.98 And so, yeah, that's good memory, Johnny. 00:40:50.15\00:40:51.85 But I'm sure you would remember squad cars. 00:40:51.91\00:40:54.28 Oh, yeah. 00:40:54.55\00:40:55.32 We had some of our board members and also came and 00:40:55.85\00:41:01.22 joined with that. 00:41:01.22\00:41:01.96 I remember May Chung. 00:41:01.99\00:41:02.92 I think Ellsworth McKee maybe, Bill Halsey. 00:41:02.92\00:41:06.39 There's a few people who came with him. 00:41:06.53\00:41:09.66 And so I remember newspaper writers from West Frankfurt. 00:41:09.90\00:41:12.63 One was named Bob Ellis. 00:41:12.90\00:41:14.20 And that changed his whole life, his relationship with the 00:41:14.50\00:41:18.87 3ABN and who we were. 00:41:18.87\00:41:20.11 I knew him, Bob is a sports writer for many years. 00:41:20.24\00:41:23.04 I played sports and he would cover stories. 00:41:23.18\00:41:25.95 But after that, he really became, wrote a book about 00:41:25.98\00:41:29.32 3ABN. 00:41:29.32\00:41:30.25 He had considered himself an atheist. 00:41:30.25\00:41:33.12 But he says in his book that he never considered the M word. 00:41:33.32\00:41:38.43 He never, didn't even want to say miracle because it's a 00:41:38.73\00:41:41.96 miracle. 00:41:41.96\00:41:46.47 And then he went to Russia on numerous times. 00:41:46.57\00:41:49.50 And Romania. 00:41:50.07\00:41:50.64 Yeah, he went to Romania right after the fall of communism. 00:41:51.41\00:41:54.08 And so much support from the area. 00:41:54.84\00:41:57.65 But yeah, good memory. 00:41:57.91\00:41:59.01 Praise the Lord. 00:41:59.01\00:42:00.22 You know, that made me realize something. 00:42:00.38\00:42:03.25 3ABN has, God has used 3ABN for people that have not had a 00:42:05.12\00:42:11.76 chance to come to a GC session to see one for the first time. 00:42:11.76\00:42:15.50 Because 3ABN was first in putting a GC session, a lot of 00:42:16.23\00:42:20.74 reports and things like that on the air. 00:42:20.74\00:42:22.40 And since then, of course, these buses gives people an 00:42:22.77\00:42:27.61 opportunity from other countries, particularly to see 00:42:27.61\00:42:31.18 3ABN because they come to the GC session as delegates and 00:42:31.18\00:42:34.68 accompanying their family members, etc. 00:42:34.68\00:42:36.32 What a tremendous blessing. 00:42:36.89\00:42:38.15 The first time it was done, it was in 2005, when the GC 00:42:38.72\00:42:42.86 session was in St. Louis. 00:42:42.86\00:42:44.46 Well, that's about 20 years ago. 00:42:44.53\00:42:45.93 And so what a blessing that was to people because they were 00:42:47.10\00:42:51.23 able to come here. 00:42:51.23\00:42:52.57 Now, it's a commitment, of course, because 2 hours from 00:42:52.57\00:42:55.27 St. Louis and they spend time here, then 2 hours back and 00:42:55.27\00:42:58.54 they're willing to do that. 00:42:58.54\00:42:59.61 And the thing to do is go to the 3ABN booth to secure 00:42:59.94\00:43:04.75 yourself a ticket because they go fast to get on that bus. 00:43:04.75\00:43:08.15 But 3ABN, again, has had the opportunity to interview people 00:43:08.82\00:43:13.69 and also we get to hear reports from people that watch 3ABN 00:43:13.69\00:43:18.66 from different countries and people tell us, I came into the 00:43:18.66\00:43:22.26 church because of 3ABN. 00:43:22.26\00:43:23.70 And it's amazing, it's an amazing experience. 00:43:24.23\00:43:26.17 So for those that cannot come, 3ABN is going to be doing great 00:43:26.50\00:43:30.41 reports and nightly program, like you said. 00:43:30.41\00:43:33.04 And tune in, don't miss it. 00:43:34.04\00:43:35.51 It starts July 3rd, so we go live broadcasting July 3rd. 00:43:35.71\00:43:39.11 It's a Thursday night and it goes all the way through 00:43:39.18\00:43:41.35 Sabbath, July 12th. 00:43:41.35\00:43:42.68 So it's about 10 days of live programming. 00:43:42.68\00:43:45.62 3ABN will be broadcasting live there from St. Louis. 00:43:46.02\00:43:48.82 So if you're in person, stop by the booth and we'd love to 00:43:48.82\00:43:52.06 spend time together. 00:43:52.06\00:43:52.99 If you're not in person, you're welcome to watch on 3ABN and 00:43:53.26\00:43:57.27 join that way. 00:43:57.27\00:43:58.03 And we eventually got on, took a little while, but we got on 00:43:58.53\00:44:01.60 throughout Uganda as well. 00:44:01.60\00:44:03.47 That is correct. 00:44:03.77\00:44:04.37 Praise the Lord. 00:44:04.51\00:44:05.14 They're strong. 00:44:05.54\00:44:06.17 Several government leaders have come here from Papua New 00:44:06.84\00:44:12.58 Guinea. 00:44:12.58\00:44:13.05 Sure, amazing. 00:44:14.08\00:44:14.85 Pastor Johnnie, I know time is getting away from us here. 00:44:15.82\00:44:17.82 Can you talk to us a little bit about 3ABN Latino? 00:44:17.82\00:44:19.85 I know you have a camp meeting coming up. 00:44:19.95\00:44:21.72 Yes. 00:44:21.72\00:44:22.12 Right after G.C. 00:44:22.16\00:44:23.02 session. 00:44:23.39\00:44:25.03 After ASI, mid-August. 00:44:25.03\00:44:26.53 I want to say about the 3ABN camp meeting, parent camp 00:44:26.83\00:44:29.96 meeting. 00:44:29.96\00:44:30.60 You know, I squeeze time in to listen to every sermon. 00:44:31.13\00:44:35.70 And these campers, these people that come to the 3ABN camp 00:44:36.00\00:44:39.11 meeting, they are troopers. 00:44:39.11\00:44:40.84 They are there from the morning program all the way to the 00:44:41.81\00:44:45.18 evening program. 00:44:45.18\00:44:46.01 Every meeting full of people. 00:44:46.95\00:44:49.18 And what a tremendous camp meeting it was. 00:44:49.62\00:44:52.05 The flow of the messages. 00:44:53.12\00:44:54.56 And it's preparing to proclaim the final cry. 00:44:55.19\00:44:57.83 People want to know. 00:44:58.23\00:44:59.09 People are interested in this. 00:44:59.29\00:45:01.46 And for those that couldn't make it, of course they can 00:45:01.96\00:45:04.90 watch it again on YouTube. 00:45:04.90\00:45:06.84 All the messages, including Shockwave. 00:45:07.10\00:45:09.17 But what a tremendous blessing. 00:45:09.64\00:45:11.11 And we are praying for the Lord to bless as well for 3ABN 00:45:11.24\00:45:15.08 Latino camp meeting, which is from the 13th through the 16th 00:45:15.08\00:45:18.81 of August. 00:45:18.81\00:45:19.28 And we have the same topics. 00:45:19.61\00:45:21.98 The same topics, so we encourage people to register. 00:45:22.18\00:45:26.02 Now, why are we asking people to register? 00:45:26.15\00:45:27.96 It is because we want to know how many bags of beans to buy 00:45:28.29\00:45:31.93 and bags of rice to buy. 00:45:31.93\00:45:33.26 Because unlike 3ABN parent, you know, we kind of have an idea, 00:45:35.13\00:45:40.37 more or less. 00:45:40.37\00:45:41.04 But 3ABN Latino, we're not sure yet how many people come. 00:45:41.54\00:45:44.14 So we want to make sure that if we need to buy 10 pounds of 00:45:44.14\00:45:46.84 rice, we'll buy 10 pounds of rice. 00:45:46.84\00:45:48.11 Because the meals are free like the 3ABN camp meeting. 00:45:48.41\00:45:52.25 And so please register so that we know you're coming. 00:45:52.81\00:45:55.48 So that we make sure that we have enough rice for you. 00:45:55.85\00:45:58.02 Where do they go to register? 00:45:58.12\00:45:59.19 So they go to 3ABN Latino dot TV. 00:45:59.42\00:46:01.79 3ABN Latino dot TV. 00:46:02.09\00:46:03.53 And the same topics. 00:46:03.89\00:46:05.13 And we have two speakers that you know that are also going to

speakers do not know them. 00:47:08.79\00:47:10.96 But I'll mention a few just in case. 00:47:10.96\00:47:13.83 We have Pastor Gluder Kispe. 00:47:14.36\00:47:16.56 He's a well known speaker and

people that I think people will find interest in 00:47:28.14\00:47:32.08 coming is Luis Orozco. 00:47:32.08\00:47:33.58 He's a Mexican evangelist that did an evangelistic campaign 00:47:33.82\00:47:37.62 last year from Chiapas, Mexico. 00:47:37.62\00:47:40.26 And it was a tremendous blessing. 00:47:40.26\00:47:42.36 Over 5,000 people were baptized because it was a nationwide 00:47:42.76\00:47:45.66 campaign. 00:47:45.66\00:47:46.26 And so he's going to be here as well. 00:47:46.70\00:47:49.13 And so we encourage people to come and please pray for this

00:50:39.77\00:50:43.84 really came from Jill because... 00:50:43.84\00:50:45.67 It did? 00:50:45.67\00:50:46.17 I'll tell you how because she's so organized that months in 00:50:47.04\00:50:51.25 advance she wants to know the title of my sermon. 00:50:51.25\00:50:53.52 And I have no idea but as I was studying I thought, well, this 00:50:53.92\00:50:57.09 is going to be some Shock Waves. 00:50:57.09\00:50:58.39 So when she says, do you have a title? 00:50:58.79\00:51:00.59 I got thinking about it. 00:51:00.82\00:51:02.02 Okay, I'll just say Shock Waves. 00:51:02.02\00:51:02.06 That leaves it open for me. 00:51:03.49\00:51:04.86 It does. 00:51:04.86\00:51:09.43 me get my Shock Waves. 00:51:09.43\00:51:11.63 So left the door open. 00:51:12.10\00:51:13.34 We just got back recently from this week actually from 00:51:13.90\00:51:18.21 Washington D.C. 00:51:18.21\00:51:19.84 Dr. Ben Carson invited us. 00:51:20.61\00:51:22.51 President Trump had appointed a committee on religious liberty. 00:51:22.64\00:51:26.78 Wow. 00:51:26.88\00:51:31.39 Because we hear about Project 2025 and all of this which we 00:51:31.39\00:51:35.29 know didn't come from the government or from him but 00:51:35.29\00:51:38.03 people were saying the Sunday Law is being pushed and what 00:51:38.03\00:51:40.96 have you. 00:51:40.96\00:51:41.26 So religious liberty. 00:51:42.06\00:51:43.10 So Dr. Carson is co-chair of this religious liberty 00:51:43.40\00:51:47.17 committee. 00:51:47.17\00:51:47.67 There's about 12 people. 00:51:47.74\00:51:49.07 Many very well known. 00:51:49.27\00:51:50.41 But there's Jews, Jewish representation. 00:51:50.91\00:51:54.14 There's Protestant representation. 00:51:54.41\00:51:56.41 Seventh-day Adventist with Dr. Carson of course. 00:51:56.41\00:51:59.78 We had Catholic there. 00:52:00.15\00:52:01.75 Bishops, I think, Franklin Graham wasn't there. 00:52:02.02\00:52:07.42 He's part of the commission but people like Paula White and 00:52:07.42\00:52:10.23 others are there. 00:52:10.23\00:52:11.46 But we were tremendously impressed. 00:52:11.79\00:52:14.36 What was your takeaway from what's happening as far as the 00:52:14.73\00:52:20.00 government, what's happening right now? 00:52:20.00\00:52:21.47 There is freedom to exercise your own religious beliefs. 00:52:22.07\00:52:26.21 They brought up an Indian sacred ground that the 00:52:26.21\00:52:33.18 government was, you know, some private industry was trying to 00:52:33.18\00:52:37.39 take and they're saying no, you can't because that's how they 00:52:37.39\00:52:42.52 choose to worship. 00:52:42.52\00:52:43.59 They should be able to worship any way they choose. 00:52:43.63\00:52:46.46 And so what we took away from that was they are committed, 00:52:46.59\00:52:51.47 this commission is committed to the free exercise of religion. 00:52:51.60\00:52:55.90 That you should be able to worship the Lord the way you 00:52:56.30\00:52:59.51 see fit or not. 00:52:59.51\00:53:00.74 And when you see fit, yeah. 00:53:00.81\00:53:02.28 Yeah, when and whom and so and how. 00:53:02.28\00:53:06.01 So to me it was very impressive and it was eye-opening because, 00:53:06.61\00:53:10.62 you know, we hear on one hand that there's this push for the 00:53:10.62\00:53:17.13 lack of religious freedom and then over here there's 00:53:17.13\00:53:20.23 religious liberty with this commission and they're really 00:53:20.23\00:53:23.50 making suggestions to the president as to how it should 00:53:23.50\00:53:27.74 be done. 00:53:27.74\00:53:28.20 Very interesting. 00:53:28.37\00:53:29.10 So really a push for separation of churches. 00:53:29.30\00:53:30.61 And he's asked for that. 00:53:30.91\00:53:32.57 They didn't, maybe some people were asking him but he asked 00:53:32.81\00:53:36.08 and appointed and put Dr. Carson as co-chair. 00:53:36.08\00:53:39.55 He knows he's Seventh-day Adventist and then put in I 00:53:39.91\00:53:43.05 think Lieutenant Governor of Texas but there's a number of 00:53:43.05\00:53:46.25 other people, as I said, represented. 00:53:46.25\00:53:48.82 Then we had a number of attorneys who've been fighting 00:53:49.26\00:53:52.23 to the Supreme Court on behalf of religious freedom, things 00:53:52.23\00:53:57.30 that we hadn't even heard about but it's very, very 00:53:57.30\00:53:59.67 interesting. 00:53:59.67\00:54:00.34 The one lady there was when the guy that, years ago I think, 00:54:01.34\00:54:05.37 far back is 13 years ago that a gay couple wanted to have them 00:54:05.87\00:54:10.65 bake a cake, you know, for them for their wedding and the guy 00:54:10.65\00:54:13.25 refused. 00:54:13.25\00:54:17.55 and I don't know if it ever has got settled but their idea is, 00:54:17.55\00:54:21.36 look, religious freedom should be religious freedom for 00:54:21.52\00:54:25.93 everybody. 00:54:25.93\00:54:29.40 to if you say it's against my religious convictions that I 00:54:29.40\00:54:32.63 don't agree with that and then they should be able to say, you 00:54:32.63\00:54:36.07 know, hey, I can go wherever I want or I should be able to be, 00:54:36.07\00:54:39.64 you know, worship how we want, we're a gay couple but we 00:54:39.64\00:54:42.71 should, well, that's fine, they should have their freedom but 00:54:42.71\00:54:45.38 they're trying to not make it where if you have one person, 00:54:45.38\00:54:49.08 you know, is because of the other's worship or their 00:54:49.08\00:54:53.22 religion interferes with another person's and it forces 00:54:53.22\00:54:56.69 you and so even people in our schools and our teachers that 00:54:56.69\00:55:02.23 are forced to say the pronouns, you know, of kids and they say, 00:55:02.23\00:55:06.50 well, that's not, I believe God created just two genders, I'm 00:55:06.67\00:55:10.04 not going to do that. 00:55:10.04\00:55:11.14 So they're trying to give because in the past there have 00:55:11.24\00:55:14.68 been people arrested and the teachers lost their jobs, 00:55:14.68\00:55:17.41 people having silent prayers outside abortion clinic, silent 00:55:17.95\00:55:21.85 prayers, were arrested for praying and yet you can get out 00:55:21.85\00:55:25.52 and protest anything else you want to and be loud about it 00:55:25.52\00:55:28.76 and so this group is together and the President Trump is 00:55:28.76\00:55:32.73 saying, you know, people should have religious freedom period 00:55:32.73\00:55:36.46 and no one should enforce anything on you so that was 00:55:36.46\00:55:40.27 good to hear. 00:55:40.27\00:55:43.84 did but all that said, something could happen tomorrow 00:55:43.84\00:55:47.34 that changes everything. 00:55:47.34\00:55:48.54 So we find no security in it other than you know what, 00:55:48.88\00:55:53.58 everything is not the way it necessarily sounds so we have 00:55:53.58\00:55:57.59 to be focused on the Word of God. 00:55:57.59\00:55:59.22 Don't be going by everything you read. 00:55:59.25\00:56:01.22 The future is getting up and the Sunday Law is going to be 00:56:01.72\00:56:03.86 here right away and the Sunday Law is this and that and others 00:56:03.86\00:56:06.33 are not worried about it at all so let's be balanced again. 00:56:06.33\00:56:10.23 Let's go to the prophecy, go the Word of God but we were 00:56:10.90\00:56:14.74 happy to be a part of it. 00:56:14.74\00:56:15.84 Dr. Carson is extremely respected there and his wife 00:56:15.84\00:56:20.41 Candy, they were friends and they asked us to come and we 00:56:20.41\00:56:23.41 stayed with them and got to meet the boys and really that 00:56:23.41\00:56:26.58 we had a wonderful family and their daughter-in-laws and 00:56:26.58\00:56:31.15 grandkids and so just a wonderful group. 00:56:31.15\00:56:33.72 Thank you, yeah, thank you both for going. 00:56:33.72\00:56:35.72 Amen, that's precious. 00:56:36.89\00:56:37.99 I can't believe we're all the way down to the end of this 00:56:38.46\00:56:40.50 hour. 00:56:40.50\00:56:42.53 Mr. Danny, Dr. Yvonne, Pastor Johnny, Brother Rodney and 00:56:42.53\00:56:46.77 Pastor James. 00:56:46.77\00:56:51.04 grateful to serve in ministry together to help proclaim this 00:56:51.04\00:56:55.24 undiluted Three Angels messages to a lost and dying world. 00:56:55.24\00:56:58.95 Know that we love you and we pray for you and we look 00:56:59.25\00:57:02.22 forward to seeing you next time. 00:57:02.22\00:57:04.62 Bye-bye. 00:57:04.62\00:57:05.29
