I HAVE SOME GREAT GUESTS AND WE 01:21 HAVE ALREADY PRAYED AND ASKED FOR THE HOLY SPIRIT BLESSING ON 01:26 THIS PROGRAM TODAY. I HAVE PASTOR JOHN, AND PASTOR 01:31 CA. GLAD YOU ARE HERE TODAY. 01:33 >> GOOD TO BE HERE. >> WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO IS I 01:37 WOULD LIKE FOR THOSE OF YOU AT HOME MAYBE TO JOIN US IN A 01:41 PRAYER IN JUST A MOMENT AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR LOVE AND 01:44 PRAYERS AND FINANCIAL SUPPORT, BECAUSE WITHOUT YOU, WE WOULD BE 01:50 SITTING HERE BY OURSELVES AND TALKING ABOUT THINGS THAT WE 01:53 THINK ARE VERY IMPORTANT CONSIDERING THE CLOSING MOMENTS 01:57 OF EARTH'S HISTORY. AND SO WE WANT, TODAY, TO SIT 02:01 AND TALK TO YOU. WE WANT YOU TO BE ABLE TO PRAY 02:04 WITH US. WE WANT YOU TO JOIN WITH US. 02:07 BUT WHAT I REALLY WANT TO DO TODAY, AND IT'S SOMETHING MAYBE 02:14 WE HAVEN'T DONE IN A WHILE. THERE ARE A LOT OF MYTHS ABOUT 02:20 CHRISTIANS, ABOUT SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHRISTIANS, AND OTHER 02:24 CHRISTIANS, TOO, THERE ARE MYTHS ABOUT PEOPLE WHO SAY I WANT TO 02:28 GO TO HEAVEN, OR IF THERE IS A HEAVEN, AND ALL OF THESE THINGS. 02:34 BUT SOMEHOW SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS, SEEMS LIKE WE ARE 02:37 UNIQUE, AND MAYBE WE'RE NOT CONSIDERED IN THE MAINLINE 02:43 EVANGELICAL GROUP. SO THERE ARE A LOT OF THINGS 02:46 THAT PEOPLE REALLY -- MAYBE DON'T KNOW OR UNDERSTAND, AND 02:49 THEN MAYBE THERE ARE SOME OF US WHO ARE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST 02:53 CHRISTIANS THAT MAYBE IT WOULDN'T HURT FOR US TO JUST GO 02:56 BACK OVER SOME OF THESE -- WE'LL CALL THEM TRUTH OR FICTION OR 03:02 TRUE OR FALSE. I MAY THROW OUT SOME OF THESE 03:06 QUESTIONS TO YOU GUYS. >> OKAY. 03:08 >> BUT WHAT I REALLY WANT TO DO, AND I THINK YOU GUYS DO TOO, 03:14 THAT JESUS IS COMING BACK FOR A PURIFIED BRIDE, A PURIFIED 03:22 CHURCH. AND THE DEVIL IS OUT TO DESTROY. 03:25 SO HERE WE ARE ON PLANET EARTH. WE DIDN'T ASK TO BE BORN, BUT 03:31 WE'RE HERE. THE CHANCES ARE ONE IN SEVERAL 03:35 BILLIONS THAT A PERSON EVEN MAKES IT THROUGH ALL OF THE 03:38 PERIOD TO BREATHE LIFE, IT'S AGAINST ALL ODDS, AND THEN WE'RE 03:42 HERE FOR A SHORT TIME, AND THEN ETERNITY. 03:46 BUT THERE ARE SO MANY QUESTIONS THAT PEOPLE HAVE. 03:49 >> THA'S RIGHT. >> HOW DO I MAKE HEAVEN MY HOME? 03:54 IS THERE A HEAVEN FIRST OF ALL, BUT EVEN WITHIN THOSE OF HOUSE 03:58 WITH ARE CHRISTIANS, THERE ARE SO MANY RELIGIONS AND ONE BIBLE. 04:02 AND IT'S LIKE HOW DO WE GET -- COME UP WITH SO MANY 04:07 DIFFERENT INTERPRETATIONS OR DOCTRINES AND SO MANY 04:12 DENOMINATIONS, RELIGIOUS GROUPS FROM ONE BIBLE, FROM THOSE, SAY, 04:18 IN THE CHRISTIAN FAITH AT LEAST. >> ALL RIGHT. 04:21 SO TODAY I WOULD LIKE TO TALK ABOUT SOME OF THOSE THINGS. 04:24 BUT I WANT TO PRAY, AND I WOULD LIKE MAYBE CA, YOU, BECAUSE I 04:32 KNOW YOU VIEWERS, WE REALIZE THERE ARE PEOPLE TODAY THAT ARE 04:38 WATCHING BECAUSE THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS INSPIRED YOU TO TUNE IN NOW. 04:45 THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE THAT ARE GOING THINGS IN YOUR LIFE, IT 04:49 MIGHT BE PHYSICAL, SPIRITUAL, MARITAL, IT COULD BE ALL KINDS 04:53 OF THINGS. PROBLEMS THAT ALL OF US HAVE HAD 04:57 TOO, BUT MAYBE SOME OF YOU HAVE JUST GOTTEN REALLY BAD REPORTS, 05:02 AND YOU DON'T QUITE KNOW HOW TO DEAL WITH IT. 05:07 BUT YOU CAN SHARE IT WITH JESUS BECAUSE HE KNOWS ALREADY, AND WE 05:11 BELIEVE THERE IS POWER IN PRAYER, SO WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO 05:18 DO IS MAYBE CA SAY A PRAYER FOR THOSE WHO ARE FEELING ALONE 05:22 RIGHT NOW. THEY ARE NOT SURE WHY THEY ARE 05:25 EVEN HERE IN THESE CLOSING MOMENTS OF EARTH'S HISTORY. 05:29 DOES GOD HAVE A PLAN FOR MY LIFE? 05:32 DOES HE REALLY CARE? AND THERE ARE PEOPLE ALL AROUND 05:34 THE WORLD THAT ARE SEARCHING FOR ANSWERS. 05:37 AND IF THERE WAS EVER A MIXED UP TIME, I'M TELLING YOU WHEN IT 05:42 COMES TO POLITICS AND RELIGION, IT IS RIGHT NOW IN MY LIFETIME. 05:47 BUT THIS IS BY DESIGN. THE DEVIL IS OUT TO STEAL, KILL, 05:51 AND DESTROY. ALL WE WANT TO DO IS TO BE ABLE 05:55 TO HAVE A BIBLE STUDY WITH YOU, AND JOIN WITH YOU, AND IF YOU 06:00 ARE LOOKING FOR TRUTH AND WE'RE LOOKING FOR TRUTH, I BELIEVE WE 06:04 ARE GOING TO FIND IT TODAY. BIG GOD CAN'T SOLVE A PROBLEM, 06:11 NONE IS SO SMALL THAT HE DOESN'T HEAR IT. 06:14 >> AMEN. >> I'M GOING TO ASK PASTOR CA IF 06:18 YOU WILL PRAY FOR OUR VIEWERS AT HOME AND FOR OUR STUDY TODAY. 06:25 >> WE COME TO YOU WITH PRAISE ON OUR LIPS AND JOY IN OUR HEARTS. 06:33 WE'RE PRAISING YOU AND JOYFUL BECAUSE YOU ARE A GOD ABOVE ALL 06:43 GODS. YOU HAVE SHOWN YOURSELF MIGHTY 06:46 AND POWERFUL TOO MANY TIMES TO COUNT. 06:49 FATHER WE KNOW THAT THERE ARE THOSE IN OUR LISTENING AND 06:54 VIEWING AUDIENCE WHO ARE UNDER THE ATTACK OF THE ENEMY. 07:00 THERE ARE THOSE OF OUR NUMBER WHO ARE UNDER THE ATTACK OF THE 07:05 ENEMY. SO HELP US LORD, EVEN IN THE 07:08 MIDST OF TRIAL TO KNOW THAT WE SERVE A GOD WHO CAN DO ANYTHING 07:13 BUT FAIL. OKAY. 07:15 >> THAT'S RIGHT. >> YOU SAID I WILL NEVER LEAVE 07:18 YOU. I WILL NEVER FORSAKE YOU. 07:21 YOU HAVE SAID THAT WE CAN BOLDLY DECLARE THAT GOD IS OUR HELPER. 07:25 AND WE DO DECLARE THAT NOW, LORD. 07:29 EVEN IN THE MIDST OF A WORLD THAT SEEMS TO HAVE GONE MAD OF 07:34 DEATH AND SORROW ALL OVER. WE KNOW A GOD WHO CANNOT FAIL. 07:38 >> YES. >> HAS NEVER FAILED. 07:40 AND WILL NOT FAIL. AND SO WE COMMEND OUR FRIENDS 07:44 AND EXTENDED 3ABN FAMILY TO YOU. OH, FATHER, WHERE THERE IS 07:50 SICKNESS, BRING HEALING, WHERE THERE'S DIVISION BRING UNITY, 07:55 WHERE THERE IS STRIFE, BRING PEACE. 07:57 AND LORD HELP YOUR CHILDREN TO KNOW THAT THEY CAN BE MORE THAN 08:04 CONQUERERS THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD. 08:06 FATHER SHOW YOURSELF MIGHTY IN THESE LAST DAYS. 08:09 WE KNOW EVEN IN THE CHAOS OF SOCIETY, THERE IS ABOVE ALL, 08:15 BENEATH ALL AND BEHIND ALL, THERE IS A GOD WHO STILL SITS ON 08:20 THE THROWN AND HAS NOT LOST TOUCH AND HAS NOT LOST HIS POWER 08:24 TO HEAL, BLESS, AND SAVE. AND SO FATHER, IN THESE LAST -DAYS, STAND UP FOR YOUR PEOPLE, 08:31 AS WE STAND UP FOR YOU. SURROUND US AND GIVE US VICTORY, 08:36 AND EVEN AS WE STUDY HERE, MAY OUR WORDS BE YOUR WORDS. 08:41 MAY OUR THOUGHTS BE YOUR THOUGHTS. 08:43 AS WE SEEK TRUTH, WE WANT TO KNOW TRUTH, AND WE WANT DO THAT 08:47 WHICH IS RIGHT. THERE ARE THOSE HERE, FATHER WHO 08:50 ARE ILL. OH, FATHER BE WITH THEM, GIVE 08:53 THEM HEALING. WE THINK ABOUT SO MANY HERE WHO 08:56 ARE UNDER THE ATTACK OF THE ENEMY PHYSICALLY. 09:00 OH, FATHER HEAL THEM. AND THEN THOSE WHO ARE UNDER THE 09:04 ATTACK SPIRITUALLY. GIVE THEM VICTORY, WE DO PRAISE, 09:09 FATHER, FOR WE WANT TO BE SAVED, AND WE WANT TO SEE COUNTLESS 09:13 MILLIONS SAVED IN YOUR KINGDOM. SO BE WITH US THIS NIGHT, LOVING 09:19 LORD. STRENGTHEN US, TEACH US, SO WE 09:21 WILL HEAR AND LISTEN AND DO, AND WE THANK YOU MIGHTY FATHER FOR 09:26 YOUR PROMISE TO HEAR AND ANSWER THE PRAYER OF FAITH IN JESUS 09:31 NAME. AMEN. 09:32 >> AMEN. >> AMEN. 09:34 >> WHAT A PRAYER. >> IT WAS, BEAUTIFUL. 09:37 JOHN, I WANT TO START WITH YOU.-MAYBE EXPLAIN TO US, JUST -- IN HOW EVER YOU WANT TO DO IT, WHY 09:48 YOU ARE A CHRISTIAN TODAY. WHY ARE YOU A CHRISTIAN? 09:51 AND WHY ARE YOU A SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHRISTIAN? 09:55 >> WELL, THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION. A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT 09:58 INFLUENCED ME TO BE WHO I AM TODAY. 10:00 ONE WAS JUST GIVING A LITTLE BIT OF MY LIFE STORY. 10:03 YOU HEARD IT BEFORE, BUT JUST FOR THOSE WHO MAY BE WATCHING 10:09 AND LISTENING TO THE PROGRAM. I WAS RAISED IN A HOME BY AN 10:14 ADVENTIST LADY. THAT WAS MY FIRST EXPOSE SURE TO 10:24 CHRISTIANITY. AND SHE DIED, I LEFT THE CHURCH. 10:28 AND PASTOR CA CAME A FEW YEARS LATER. 10:31 BUT I WEN OUT INTO THE WORLD, AND GOT INVOLVED IN THE THINGS 10:36 OF NEW YORK CITY. I GREW UP IN A SET OF BELIEFS 10:40 BUT THEY WERE NOT MINE. THEY WERE A PART OF THE CHURCH I 10:44 ATTENDED. SO I DIDN'T HAVE ANY ROOTS DOWN 10:47 DEEP. I JUST HAD CHURCH ATTENDANCE, 10:49 AND I DID WHAT I WAS TOLD TO DO, AND THAT'S HOW YOU DO IT WHEN 10:55 YOU ARE IN A WEST INDIAN HOME. YOU GO TO CHURCH BECAUSE THERE 11:00 IS NO OTHER CHOICE. SO I WENT TO CHURCH, BUT I 11:04 DIDN'T HAVE ANY PARTICULAR AFFIRMATION OF FAITH OR ANYTHING 11:08 THAT I SAY NOW I KNOW FOR SURE. SO AT ABOUT 15 YEARS OLD. 11:12 I STARTED MY OWN SEARCH. AND I WENT TO DIFFERENT 11:15 CHURCHES. THE FIRST PLACE I WENT WAS TO A 11:19 NAZARENE CHURCH, AND RESPECT TO THOSE WHO ARE NAZARENE, THIS IS 11:23 NOT A REFLECTION ON YOU AT ALL. I WENT TO A YOUTH GROUP I HAD 11:28 HEARD ABOUT. BUT IN THE BACK OF MY MIND THERE 11:31 WERE CERTAIN BELIEFS I WAS RAISED WITH, AND I WANTED TO 11:34 KNOW WHETHER OR NOT THEY WERE VALID OR NECESSARY. 11:36 SO I WENT TO THIS YOUTH GROUP AND I ASKED THE QUESTION ABOUT 11:40 THE SABBATH. I ASKED THE YOUTH PASTOR, AND HE 11:45 SAID COME WITH ME, AND HE ESCORTED ME OUT OF THE 11:49 CLASSROOM, UP THE STEPS ACROSS THE HALLWAY, DOWN THE EXIT STEPS 11:53 AND HE PROCEEDED TO TELL ME, DON'T EVER COME BACK HERE. 11:57 >> OH. >> AND ALL I ASKED HIM 12:00 WAS -- I'M SEARCHING, AND I HAVE A QUESTION. 12:04 DOES THE BIBLE TEACH THAT WE HAVE TO KEEP THE SABBATH? 12:09 AND AS THE YOUTH PASTOR I EXPECTED AN ANSWER, BUT HEEST 12:12 SORTED ME OUT OF THE CHURCH AND TOLD ME NEVER TO COME BACK. 12:16 >> AND THAT POINT IN YOUR LIFE, HE PROBABLY HAD NO IDEA HOW 12:22 READILY YOU WERE TO HAVE HIM SAY IT'S NOT IMPORTANT. 12:26 >> HE COULD HAVE GIVEN ME SUPPORTIVE BIBLE VERSES AND I 12:30 WOULD HAVE BEEN FIND. BECAUSE I WAS IN THE DISC JOCKEY 12:35 WORLD, AND I WAS LOOKING FOR EXES -- EXCUSES TO CONINUE MY 12:47 OWN LIFESTYLE. BUT HE SAID NO, DON'T COME BACK. 12:50 SO I WENT TO A PENTECOSTAL CHURCH NEXT. 12:58 A VERY WELL-KNOWN BISHOP IN TOWN. 13:00 THE CHURCH WAS PACKED EVERY SUNDAY, AND AT THAT TIME, I WAS 13:05 GETTING A LITTLE BIT MORE PROACTIVE IN MY -- SO FAR I 13:08 HAVEN'T FOUND ANYTHING, SO LET ME HOLD ON TO THIS UNTIL I HAVE 13:14 AFFIRMATION.-SO I WENT TO SEE HIM IN HIS HUGE OFFICE. 13:18 THEY HAD TAKEN OVER A CATHOLIC CHURCH THAT HAD GONE DORMANT AND 13:23 MEMBERS MOVED AWAY. AND I SAID I HAVE A FEW 13:27 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOU, AND I PROCEEDED WITH THE ONE THAT I 13:32 BELIEVED WAS THE BIGGEST POINT OF SEPARATION BETWEEN THOSE WHO 13:36 GO TO CHURCH ON SUNDAY AND THOSE WHO GO ON SATURDAY. 13:39 I ASKED HIM ABOUT THE SABBATH, AND HIS RESPONSE WAS -- I NEVER 13:44 FORGOT IT -- HE SAID, NOW, I HOPE YOU DON'T TELL ME THAT 13:51 ROMAN EMPEROR CONSTANTINE PASSED THE FIRST -- AND HE CONTINUED TO 13:56 RATTLE OFF HISTORY. AND I THOUGHT, YOU KNEW? 13:59 AND HE SAID, I'LL BE BACK. WELL, AFTER 45 MINUTES OF 14:04 SITTING IN HIS OFFICE BY MYSELF, AS THEY WOULD SAY IN THE KING 14:11 JAMES VERSION, I WITH NOT WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM. 14:16 [ LAUGHTER ] >> I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED 14:18 TO THE GUY, SO I GOT UP AND LEFT. 14:21 >> OKAY. >> AND MY REBUTTAL WAS -- I'M 14:24 KIND OF ASHAMED, BUT THE NEXT SUNDAY I TOOK ABOUT A HUNDRED 14:30 AMAZING FACT FOLDERS ON THE SABBATH AND PUT IT ON THE WINDOW 14:36 SHIELDS OF EVERY CAR IN THE PARKING LOT. 14:39 >> OKAY. >> THE NEXT CHURCH WAS A -CATHOLIC CHURCH. 14:46 PETER CLAVER. I WENT TO SEE THE PRIEST THERE. 14:52 AND I ASKED HIM THE SAME QUESTION, AND HE SAID, YES, WE 14:56 DO KNOW THAT SAURDAY IS THE SABBATH, HOWEVER, OUR CHURCH 15:01 CHANGED -- A LONG TIME AGO FROM SATURDAY TO SUNDAY, AND I SAID, 15:07 NOW -- I'M STILL AROUND 17 -- I SAID WHY DON'T YOU JUST CHANGE 15:11 IT BACK? AND HE SAID, AND I QUOTE, IT HAS 15:15 BEEN TOO LONG. WE'RE TOO FAR GONE TO TURN BACK. 15:18 >> OKAY. >> IT WAS NOT LONG AFTER THAT I 15:23 MET ANGIE MY WIFE. AND THE LORD, I BELIEVE SENT HER 15:28 INTO MY LIFE TO LEAD ME BACK. AND AS I WAS STILL PARTYING, 15:33 STILL GAMBLING, POOL THAT IS, POOL HUSTLING, LIVING THAT NIGHT 15:38 LIFE, IT WAS IN HER LIVING ROOM THAT HER MOM AND FAMILY LEAD ME 15:43 POINT BY POINT TO WHAT I HAVE EMBRACED TODAY AS THE TRUTH. 15:48 BUT AS AN INQUISITIVE YOUNG MAN, WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY? 15:54 AND WHEN SOMEBODY KNOCKS ON YOUR DOOR, CHANCES ARE IT'S NOT A 16:00 MORMON, IT'S A JEHOVAH'S WITNESS. 16:03 >> MORE THAN LIKELY. >> AND WHEN THEY FOUND OUT I 16:08 WENT TO CHURCH ON SATURDAY, THAT ALWAYS CAME UP. 16:11 SO THE FIRST THING THAT LEAD ME BACK TO WHERE I AM TODAY IS I 16:16 WANTED TO KNOW WHETHER OR NOT THE BIBLE SABBATH WAS IMPORTANT. 16:19 AND IF IT HAD ANY REFLECTION AT ALL ON MY RELATIONSHIP WITH 16:24 JESUS, AND WHETHER OR WHETHER OR NOT IT WAS MOVING ME IN THE 16:30 DIRECTION OF JESUS. >> SO YOU WEREN'T LIVING A 16:35 CHRISTIAN LIFE, BUT YOU WERE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING, AND WHEN 16:38 YOU BEGAN TO FELLOWSHIP AND STUDY WITH PEOPLE, YOU WANTED TO 16:43 MAKE SURE THAT AT LEAST THERE WAS A STARTING POINT -- THAT 16:46 THERE WAS TRUTH THAT YOU FELT LIKE YOU COULD WORK FROM MAYBE 16:52 THERE, BUT YOU WERE SURPRISED TO FIND OUT THESE FOLKS DIDN'T HAVE 16:59 AN ANSWER. AND THEN YOU SAID ANGIE'S FAMILY 17:02 BROUGHT YOU INTO A RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST. 17:05 AND FIRST OF ALL, ALL OF THE REST OF THIS IS NOT IMPORTANT 17:09 UNLESS WE HAVE A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD JESUS 17:15 CHRIST. >> AND THAT'S WHERE THE 17:16 DIFFERENCE WAS MADE WHEN I HAD THAT RELATIONSHIP, THEN THOSE 17:21 THINGS WERE -- I REFER TO IT NOW, THEY WERE PUTTING THE CART 17:25 BEFORE THE HORSE. IF YOU DON'T HAVE A RELATIONSHIP 17:29 WITH JESUS, YO HAVE TO DO THIS, DO THAT, DO THIS, DO THAT. 17:35 IF YOU DON'T KNOW JESUS FIRST, WHAT IS CONSIDERED TRUTH IN THE 17:39 BIBLE IS REALLY NOT RELEVANT. >> OKAY. 17:42 SO CA YOUR VERSION. YOU WERE RAISED IN AN ADVENTIST 17:47 HOME WITH ADVENTIST PARENTS AND ALL OF THAT, RIGHT? 17:51 >> NOT AT ALL. WE LIVED NEXT DOOR TO THE RILES 17:55 FAMILY. AND WE PLAYED WITH THEM DURING 17:58 THE WEEK. ON SATURDAY THEY WOULD LOAD INTO 18:00 THE CAR AND DISAPPEAR FOR THE WHOLE DAY. 18:03 AND WE WERE BELOW TEN. SO, YOU KNOW, AT NINE YEARS OLD, 18:07 YOU ARE NOT THAT INQUISITIVE, YOU MARK THAT KIND OF WEIRD 18:13 BEHAVIOR. SO WE MOVED TO ANOTHER PART OF 18:15 THE CITY, AND WE MOVED RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET FROM A GROUP 18:20 WITH THAT SAME BEHAVIOR, AND THE DAUGHTER WAS MY SISTER'S AGE, 18:27 AND THE SON WAS MY AGE. AND I SAID WHAT DO YOU DO ON 18:33 SATURDAY? AND THEY SAID WE GO TO SABBATH 18:37 SCHOOL. WHICH MEANT NOTHING TO ME. 18:41 BUT THEY SEEMED LIKE THEY LIKED IT. 18:44 AND SO I SAID I WANT TO GO. AND THEY SAID OKAY. 18:47 SO WE GO TO SABBATH SCHOOL, AND THERE WAS THIS YOUNG LADY, 18:59 MILLDREAD WILLIS. WHEN YOU GOT YOUR QUESTION RIGHT 19:05 SHE COULD SAY VERY GOOD. AND I SAID YOU KNOW WHAT, I WANT 19:09 THAT. SO I ASKED -- I STUDIED IT. 19:12 AND WHEN SHE ASKED THE QUESTION NEXT WEEK, I WAS THE FIRSTHAND 19:16 UP. AND SHE SAID VERY GOOD. 19:19 AND SHE STROKED ME ON THE CHEEK. SO I WAS HOOKED. 19:23 I WAS GOING TO SABBATH SCHOOL. AND JUST A MONTH AGO SHE CALLED 19:27 ME FROM ATLANTA. >> REALLY. 19:29 >> SHE HEARD THAT STORY, AND SHE IS -- I THINK MAYBE IN HER 70S 19:34 NOW. AND SHE SAID I -- I REMEMBER 19:36 THAT, AND WE -- WE HAD A LITTLE TALK. 19:40 HER HUSBAND WAS CONRAD GILL. AND HE HATED HIM. 19:45 BECAUSE HE TOOK OUR TEACHER AWAY. 19:47 AND WHEN I SAW HIM IN THE SEMINARIRY. 19:51 AND I SAID, FOR 20 YEARS I HAVE HATED YOUR GUTS. 19:56 [ LAUGHTER ] >> AND WE HAD A GOOD LAUGH. 19:58 AND SHE SAID HE REMEMBERS THAT. BUT THAT DID IT FOR ME. 20:02 I -- WHEN I STARTED GOING TO CHURCH. 20:05 I SAW PEOPLE GOING HOME AND HAVING SABATH DINNER TOGETHER, 20:10 AND MY HOUSE WAS CHAOS. WATCHING FOOTBALL ON -- IN THE 20:14 WINTER AND BIBLE IN THE SUMMER. EVERYBODY IS WATCHING THEIR OWN 20:18 TELEVISION SET. MY MOTHER IN HER ROOM, MY 20:22 SISTER, MY DAD -- BECAUSE MY SISTER SCREAMS AT THE 20:25 TELEVISION, AND THEN MY MOTHER WANTS IT TOTALLY QUIET, AND MY 20:29 DAD IS BACK AND FORTH. SO I'M DODGING THREE TVS TO TRY 20:33 TO GET PEACE AND QUIET. AND I ENVIED ADVENTISTS WHO 20:40 WOULD HAVE DINNER TOGETHER. SO I STARTED GOING AT 9 AND AT 20:46 AGE 10, I WAS BAPTIZED. I GOT A SCHOLARSHIP TO PLAY 20:54 BASKETBALL. AND BROKE MY ANKLE TWO YEARS ON 21:00 SABBATH, AND MY PASTER TODAY, GOD IS SENDING YOU A MESSAGE. 21:07 SO I GOT THROUGH. I HAVE A BACHELOR'S IN RELIGION 21:11 AND ANOTHER BACHELOR'S IN BEHAVIORAL SCIENCE. 21:17 AND TWO DOCTORATES, BUT I ALWAYS LOVED BEING AN ADVENTIST. 21:23 SO I TRANSFERRED AND THEY FOUND SOMEWHERE FOR ME TO GO TO SCHOOL 21:29 SO I COULD FINISH, AND GOD WAS GOOD. 21:33 THERE WERE FIVE OF US GRADUATING MY SENIOR YEAR, AND THE 21:37 CONFERENCE SAID WE'RE TAKING TWO TO MINISTRY, AND SO I SAID LORD 21:42 IF YOU WANT ME IN, YOU HAVE TO GET ME IN. 21:45 AND FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY, THEY TOOK ALL FIVE. 21:51 THEY TOOK FIVE, AND I SAID LORD, I GUESS YOU WANT ME IN THIS 21:55 THING, AND I NEVER LOOKED BACK. AND THE FIRST CHURCH I MET 22:04 PASTOR JOHN LOMACANG. HE WAS A HUSTLER THEN. 22:10 AND 14 YEARS EASILY. >> I DRAG HIM EVERYWHERE I GO. 22:15 >> THAT'S WHAT I SAY ABOUT YVONNE. 22:18 BUT IT HAS BEEN A BLESSING. AND I HAVE LOOKED AT OTHER FAITH 22:23 GROUPS AND OTHER RELIGIONS, AND I SEE WHERE ADVENTISTISM FITS. 22:30 ADVENTISTS ARE NOT ANY BETTER THAN ANYBODY ELSE. 22:33 WE JUST WANT THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH, AND NOTHING BUT THE 22:37 TRUTH. THERE IS A DOCTRINE THAT IS 22:41 UNDER ALL RELIGION. ONTOLOGY. 22:44 ONTOLOGY IS THE STATE OF BEING.-ALL RELIGIONS HAVE A ONTOLOGY BASE. 22:53 HOW DID I GET HERE? WHERE DID I COME FROM? 22:56 WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO LIVE WHILE I AM HERE? 22:59 AND WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I'M GONE? AND ALL RELIGIONS HAVE TO ANSWER 23:03 THOSE QUESTIONS. AND IF THEY DON'T IT'S USELESS. 23:07 WHERE DID I COME FROM? HOW DID I GET HERE? 23:10 WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO LIVE WHILE I AM HERE? 23:14 AND WHAT HAPPENS AFTER I'M GONE. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A 23:18 CHRISTIAN AND NON-CHRISTIAN IS CHRISTIANS HAVE ASKED AND 23:22 ANSWERED THOSE QUESTIONS. IF YOU ASKED THOSE QUESTIONS, IT 23:27 DRIVES YOU TO CHRIST. >> YEAH. 23:30 >> SO THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A CHRISTIAN AND 23:33 NON-CHRISTIAN IS A CHRISTIAN HAS LOOKED THOSE QUESTIONS IN THE 23:37 FACE AND ANSWERED THOSE QUESTIONS. 23:40 IF A PERSON SAYS I DON'T KNOW, THEY HAVEN'T ASKED THOSE 23:46 QUESTIONS. >> OKAY. 23:48 >> ONE OF THE THINGS THAT HAS KEPT ME ON THIS TRAJECTORY FOR 23:51 30 YEARS AS A PASTOR, GOING ON MY 34TH YEAR IN MARRIAGE AND 23:57 MINISTRY, AND BEING A CHRISTIAN FOR MORE YEARS THAN THAT, AS AN 24:01 AN VENN ADVERTISE. IS THE STATEMENT IN JESUS. 24:05 IF YOU ABIDE BY MY WORD YOU ARE MY DISCIPLES INDEED. 24:13 I HAVE HAD A CHANCE TO TEST THIS THING CALLED 24:17 CHRISTIAN -- ADVENTIST CHRIS -- I WANT TO USE THE WORD 24:20 CHRISTIAN, BECAUSE A LOT OF TIMES YOU SAY ADVENTIST, PEOPLE 24:24 THINK, WELL, HOW DIFFERENT ARE THEY FROM MORMON OR 24:31 JEHOVAH'S WITNESS. SO I WANT TO SAY CHRISTIAN 24:37 ADVENTIST, OR ADVENTIST CHRISTIANS. 24:40 I HAVE HAD A CHANCE TO TEST THIST 24:47 THISSED A -- ADVENTISTISM. JESUS SAYS IF YOU ABIDE IN MY 24:53 WORD YOU ARE MY DISCIPLES INDEED. 24:57 SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE I'M ABIDING IN HIS WORD. 25:01 >> OKAY. >> YOU WITH ABIDE IN THE 25:03 AIRPORT, BUT IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT TICKET -- 25:06 >> YOU WILL NEVER GET OUT OF THERE.-[ LAUGHTER ] 25:08 >> WHERE DO YOU WANT TO GO? >> WHERE DO YOU WANT TO GO? 25:11 >> AND THEN HE SAYS YOU SHALL KNOW THE TRUTH AND THE TRUTH 25:17 SHALL MAKE YOU FREE. YOU CAN SET A PRISONER FREE, BUT 25:20 HE WILL GO BACK IF HE IS NOT MADE FREE. 25:23 >> THAT'S RIGHT. >> I HAVE NOT HAD A RECIDIVISM 25:28 EXPERIENCE IN MY LIFE, BECAUSE THIS THING CALLED TRUTH HAS KEPT 25:32 ME FREE. SO WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SAY TO 25:35 THE VIEWING AND LISTENING AUDIENCE IS IF WHAT YOU 25:39 PRACTICED IS NOT FOUND IN FOUNDATIONED IN GOD'S WORD, BUT 25:44 JUST FOUNDATIONED IN YOUR DENOMINATION, THEN IT'S NOT TRUE 25:48 FREEDOM. WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE FORMATION 25:51 OF THE NEW TESTAMENT CHURCH, THE BURYIANS CHECKED IT OUT, AND 26:01 WHEN PAUL AND THINK APOSTLES PEACHED, THEY DIDN'T JUST TAKE 26:07 THEIR WORD FOR IT. IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR A 26:10 NUMBER OF DECADES, PEOPLE TEND TO TAKE THE WORD OF THE SPEAKER 26:16 OVER THE ABLE TO. JESUS SAID IF YOU ABIDE IN MY 26:20 WORD. >> THAT'S RIGHT. 26:21 >> SO THESE BELIEFS WE HAVE, I BELIEVE IT IS FROM HIS WORD, NOT 26:28 OUR PRESIDENT'S WORD, NOT OUR CONFERENCE LEADER'S WORD, BUT 26:33 THE WORD OF JESUS. >> OKAY. 26:36 >> AND TO ADD TO -- I ALMOST CALLED YOU RABBI. 26:43 [ LAUGHTER ] >> IS THAT IT -- IT MAY SOUND A 26:48 LITTLE BY -- BIGOTED, BUT IT IS TRUE. 26:55 IF YOU ARE BASING YOUR LIFE ON A FAITH BASE, YOU BETTER BE SURE 27:00 THAT THAT CHURCH IS GOING TO GET YOU HOME. 27:03 AND IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT GET OUT OF THAT CHURCH AND FINE ONE 27:07 THAT WORKS. IF YOU SEE A LEVEL OF CONFIDENCE 27:12 INNED A VENNTISM, IT'S NOT ARROGANCE, IT'S JUST I'M BASING 27:17 MY ETERNITY ON SOMETHING. AND THIS IS IT. 27:20 IT ANSWERS THE QUESTIONS FOR ME, THE CHALLENGES THAT I HAVE IN MY 27:27 LIFE, I FOUND A PATH TO JESUS THROUGH JESUS THROUGH GOD AND 27:33 ETERNITY. AND I'M BASING MY ETERNITY ON 27:35 THAT. AND SINCE YOU ARE EITHER GOING 27:38 TO SPENDING IT WITH JESUS OR WITHOUT HIM, YOU BETTER BE SURE 27:42 THAT THAT ROAD IS GOING TO TAKE YOU HOME. 27:45 AND YOU BETTER BE SURE THAT YOU HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THE CHURCH. 27:50 >> YES. >> WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO IS 27:54 DISCUSS SOME OF THE DIFFERENCES AND SOME OF THE THINGS THAT MAKE 27:57 US -- LET'S SAY, UNIQUE AS A CHURCH AND A PEOPLE. 28:00 ONE OF THE THINGS THAT SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS SEEM TO 28:04 REALLY FOCUS ON IS PROPHECY, BUT AS YOU, JOHN, AND CA, I'M SURE, 28:11 AND MANY OF OUR VIEWERS TELL US THIS ALL THE TIME. 28:14 THEY GO, I HAVE BEEN TO CHURCH ALL MY LIFE, AND WE NEVER STUDY 28:20 REVELATION, WE DON'T STUDY DANIEL, WE DON'T STUDY PROPHECY, 28:25 AND SOMEBODY SAID TO ME, WHY DO YOU SPEND SO MUCH TIME IN 28:31 PROPHECY? AND I SAID I GUESS IT'S FOR ME. 28:35 BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND PROPHECY, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND 28:38 WHERE YOU ARE GOING, RIGHT? >> THAT'S RIGHT. 28:42 >> IT'S LIKE GETTING IN THE CAR, HEADING SOMEWHERE AND NOT REALLY 28:46 KNOWING WHERE YOU ARE GOING, OR HOW YOU ARE GOING TO GET THERE. 28:51 BUT WHAT PROPHECY DOES TO ME, AND THIS IS WHY IT'S SO 28:55 IMPORTANT THAT WE HAVE READ THE BACK OF THE BOOK, BECAUSE THE 28:58 BACK OF THE BOOK TELLS YOU THAT WHEN YOU ARE TRAVELING DOWN 29:02 LIFE'S HIGHWAY, YOU ARE TO EXPECT OBSTACLES. 29:08 YOU ARE TO EXPECT THE DEVIL IS OUT TO STEAL, KILL, AND DESTROY, 29:12 SO INSTEAD OF GETTING DISCOURAGED AND SAYING LORD WHAT 29:16 HAS HAPPENED TO ME NOW, GOD HAS FORSAKEN ME. 29:22 WHY AM I IN THIS SITUATION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WHEN WE KNOW 29:32 PROPHECY, WE KNOW AHEAD OF TIME, THAT THE DEVIL IS GOING TO DO 29:36 EVERYTHING HE CAN DO TO YOU AND ME FROM MAKING HEAVEN A HOME. 29:42 SO NOW WHEN I LOOK AT PROPHECY, I CAN SEE THE HISTORY OF THE 29:47 CHURCH, WHICH -- AND THE WORLD -- WHICH IS CONFIRMATION. 29:50 WHEN I LOOK AT THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD, AND LOOK AT THE 29:53 CHURCH AND HOW ACCURATE THE BIBLE IS IN THIS HISTORY. 29:58 IT'S ACCURATE UP TO HERE, AND NOW THE FUTURE, I HAVE NO REASON 30:02 TO DOUBT THE FUTURE. >> RIGHT. 30:05 BUT NOW IT GIVES ME THAT I DON'T GET DISCOURAGED. 30:12 SO NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE GOING THROUGH, YOU KNOW YOU ARE GOING 30:16 TO WIN. BUT IF I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING 30:18 ABOUT PROPHECY, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN. 30:21 MAYBE I'M JUST GOING TO DIE AND THAT'S IT. 30:24 BUT WE KNOW -- THAT'S WHY IT'S SO IMPORTANT AND 3ABN SPENDS A 30:28 LOT OF TIME, AND YOU CAN WATCH IT, AND WE HAVE STUDIES ON THE 30:34 PROPHECIES, TO UNDERSTAND, BECAUSE IT'S AN OPENING FOR US 30:37 TO SEE INTO THE WINDOW OF WHAT GOD HAS PLANNED FOR US. 30:42 IT'S A OUR FUTURE IN STORE FOR US, AND IT SAYS, WE LIVE AND 30:47 RULE AND REIGN FOREVER WITH JESUS CHRIST WHEN WE SUBMIT AND 30:52 COMMIT OUR LIVES TO HIM. ASIDE FROM THAT, WE MIGHT TAK 30:56 TO THAT A LITTLE BIT MORE. WHEN I TALK TO PEOPLE -- I WANT 30:59 THIS FOR OUR VIEWERS AT HOME. SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS, THERE 31:04 ARE PEOPLE WHO SAY, YOU SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS, YOU 31:06 GUYS -- YOU SAY YOU ARE CHRISTIANS AND YOUR ARE 31:11 PROTESTANTS, BUT YOU BELIEVE YOU ARE THE ONLY PEOPLE SAVED. 31:14 SO I'M GOING TO ASK YOU GUYS, IS THIS TRUE OR FALSE? 31:18 >> FALSE. >> QUITE FALSE. 31:20 >> TOTALLY FALSE. >> BASED ON -- SO YOU THINK THAT 31:24 PEOPLE WILL BE IN HEAVEN WHO ARE NOT SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST. 31:28 >> YES, JOHN 10:16, JESUS SAID OTHER SHEEP I HAVE WHICH ARE NOT 31:35 OF THIS FOLD. >> OKAY. 31:36 >> BUT HE DOESN'T STOP THERE. AND DURING THE 31:39 FORMATION -- DURING THE TIME WHEN JESUS WAS DISCIPLING HIS 31:45 DISCIPLES, THEY NOTICED ANOTHER GROUP, AND THEY SAID -- THEY 31:50 POINTED TO JESUS AND SAID >> UH-HUH. 31:53 >> AND WHAT DID JESUS SAY? >> OTHER SHEEP I HAVE. 31:56 IF YOU ARE NOT FOR ME YOU ARE AGAINST ME. 31:59 >> BUT IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE JESUS SAID THEY ARE NOT 32:03 INTERRUPTING WHAT WE ARE DOING, LEAVE THEM ALONE. 32:07 BUT JESUS WAS DISCIPLING HIS DISCIPLES SO THAT AFTER HE 32:11 FINISHES TRAINING THEM, THEY CAN DO GREATER WORKS. 32:15 HE ALSO SAYS IN ACTS, TIME OF IGNORANCE GOD WINKED AT. 32:23 AND YOU CANNOT HOLD SOMEONE ACCOUNTABLE THAT IS NOT 32:27 AVAILABLE TO KNOW. AND WE'RE NOT LIVING IN AN AGE 32:31 OF IGNORANCE. SO FOR SOMEONE TO SAY, I DON'T 32:34 WANT TO KNOW -- >> OKAY. 32:36 >> -- YOU ARE JUST AS ACCOUNTABLE AS SOMEONE WHO HEARD 32:39 ABOUT IT AND REJECTED IT. >> WELL SAID. 32:42 WHILE WE'RE IN THE BOOK OF ACTS, BELIEVE IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST 32:47 AND YOU SHALL BE SAVED. >> OKAY. 32:50 >> THAT DOESN'T MEAN IT'S A STATIC, I BELIEVE. 32:54 THAT'S BELIEVE AND DO. IT'S BELIEVE AND DO. 32:57 SO ONCE YOU BELIEVE AND ALL THAT THAT ENTAILS, THE DEFAULT 33:02 SETTING IS YOU WILL BE SAVED, SO THAT YOUR MIND MUST ALWAYS BE 33:07 OPEN TO THOSE THINGS THAT GOD IS SHOWING YOU. 33:10 SO IF YOU SAY, I BELIEVE. THAT'S ENOUGH.-NO, HE IS SAYING A BELIEF THAT 33:16 RESULTS IN ACTIVITY, WHICH MEANS SEEKING, AND PRAYING, AND 33:21 WORKING, AND STRIVES, SO THERE ARE OTHERS WHO ARE NOT IN THIS 33:26 FRATERNITY BY NAME WHO BELIEVE WITH ALL OF THEIR HEART, AND 33:31 CHRIST SAYS THAT'S THE ROAD TO -- TO SALVATION. 33:35 WE DON'T BELIEVE WE'RE THE ONLY ONES. 33:38 GOD HAS OTHER SHEEP IN OTHER FRATERNITIES. 33:43 SOME WILL COME IN. SOME MAY NOT. 33:46 I'M SO GLAD THAT I'M NOT IN CHARGE OF THE SAVING BUSINESS, 33:50 THAT GOD IS. AND HE KNOWS WHAT IS GOING ON IN 33:53 YOUR HEAD AND YOUR HEART. >> THIS IS ONE OF THE THINGS 33:59 THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE SAY, YOU ALL THINK YOU ARE THE ONLY ONES 34:03 SAVED. AND OF COURSE WE'RE FINDING OUT 34:06 THAT IS NOT TRUE. BUT LET ME THROW SOME OTHER 34:10 THINGS OUT THAT MIGHT SURPRISE YOU. 34:13 THERE ARE CHURCHES AND GROUPS -- SOME HUGE GROUPS OF 34:17 PEOPLE, WHO BELIEVE IF YOU ARE NOT A MEMBER OF THEIR GROUP, 34:21 THEN YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BE SAVED. 34:23 THE ONLY ONES. NOW WHAT WOULD BE THE BIGGEST 34:28 CHRISTIAN DENOMINATION WHO BELIEVES THAT YOU HAVE TO BE A 34:30 MEMBER OF THEIR CHURCH TO BE SAVED? 34:33 >> WELL, TO BE VERY CANDID, CATHO 34:42 CATHOLICISM. LARGEST BY FAR. 34:43 I WAS JUST ABOUT TO FINISH A BOOK -- BEEN WORKING ON IT FOR 34:48 THREE AND A HALF YEARS NOW. BUT THE POPE SAID CLEARLY, HE 34:51 SAID, OTHER DENOMINATIONS ARE NOT TRUE DENOMINATIONS. 34:57 HE SAID FROM THE SUCCESSION OF PETER, THE CATHOLIC CHURCH WAS 35:03 BORN, AND WE ARE -- IF I COULD USE THE PHRASE, WE HAVE BEEN 35:07 GIVEN THE KEYS. SO IF YOU ARE NOT A PART OF 35:10 THIS, YOU ARE NOT A PART OF THE TRUE CHURCH. 35:13 ON THE SAME TOKEN, THEY EXTEND WHAT WE CALL THE INVITATION TO 35:18 COME AND JOIN US TO BE A PART OF THE TRUE MOVEMENT AND THE TRUE 35:22 CHURCH. LET ME BALANCE THAT, AND I WANT 35:24 TO ADD ANOTHER COMPONENT HERE. THE QUESTION THAT SOMEBODY MIGHT 35:27 BE ASKING, AND I KNOW THIS TO BE THE CASE, IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE 35:33 YOU ARE THE ONLY ONES THAT ARE GOING TO BE SAVED, WHY DO YOU 35:38 HOLD SO DEARLY TOED A ADVENTISTISM. 35:52 THE TRUTH WILL MAKE YOU FREE. IF TRUTH DIDN'T MATTER, DANNY, 35:57 THEN I COULD BE ANYTHING. >> UH-HUH. 35:59 >> UH-HUH. >> IF MY DESTINATION WASN'T 36:03 IMPORTANT, IT WOULDN'T MATTER WHAT AIRPLANE I GOT ON, WHAT 36:07 BANK I WENT TO, IT WOULDN'T MATTER WHAT I DID ON A 36:13 DAY-TO-DAY BASE, AND IT WOULDN'T MATTER WHAT I BELIEVED. 36:17 BUT THE TRUTH IS NOT JUST WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS, BUT THE TRUTH 36:21 SPECIFICALLY REFLECTS ON WHO JESUS IS. 36:24 SO WHY WOULD I LIE ABOUT A MAN I KNOW? 36:32 IF I KNEW YOU -- SOMEBODY SAID, DO YOU KNOW DANNY SHELTON? 36:36 YEAH, I KNOW DANNY SHELTON. HE IS AN AIRPLANE PILOT? 36:40 NO, HE IS NOT. NOT THE DANNY SHELTON I KNOW. 36:44 WELL, YOU CAN'T KNOW DANNY SHELTON IF HE IS NOT AN AIRPLANE 36:49 PILOT. WELL, IT DOESN'T MATTER. 36:51 YES, IT DOES MATTER. BECAUSE WE HAVE TO KNOW WE'RE 36:55 TALKING ABOUT THE SAME INDIVIDUAL? 36:57 >> YEAH. >> JESUS HAS ESTABLISHED CERTAIN 37:00 TRUTHS AND YOU SAY THE TRUTH DOESN'T MATTER. 37:02 >> UH-HUH. >> I THINK IT'S A VERY IMPORTANT 37:07 POINT THAT WHAT YOU BELIEVE AND THE WAY YOU BEHAVE IS A 37:12 REFLECTION ON -- ON THE GOD THAT YOU SERVE. 37:14 IF YOU BELIEVE THAT YOU DIE AND GO IMMEDIATELY TO HELL AND BURN 37:18 FOREVER, THAT IS A PICTURE OF GOD THAT IS UNTRUE, BUT IT ALSO 37:23 MAKES GOD A HORRIBLE PERSON, SO WHAT YOU BELIEVE ABOUT THE GOD 37:26 YOU SERVE IS REFLECTIVE OF -- OF -- OF WHAT HE IS. 37:31 AND IF YOU THNK HE IS A MEAN GUY TRYING TO KEEP YOU OUT, YOU 37:35 LIVE ONE WAY. IF YOU THINK HE IS A LOVING GOD, 37:39 TRYING TO GET YOU IN, YOU LIVE ANOTHER WAY. 37:42 SO IT'S NOT JUST FOR YOU. >> SO THERE ARE A LOT OF 37:48 RELIGIOUS GROUPS WHO BELIEVE THAT UNLESS YOU ARE PART OF THAT 37:51 GROUP, YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BE SAVED, RIGHT? 37:55 >> RIGHT. >> JEHOVAH'S WITNESS, MORMONS, 38:03 THEOLOGIANS, DO THEY FEEL YOU NEED TO BE A JEHOVAH'S WITNESS 38:09 TO BE SAVED? >> I WOULD THINK IF YOU 38:13 APPROACHED A JEHOVAH'S WITNESS OR MORMON, THEY WOULD SAY, I 38:20 DON'T BELIEVE THAT. DR. CEDO PUNDIS, SAID EVERY 38:31 RELIGION IS BIASED. EVERY RELIGION HAS A SLANT 38:36 TOWARDS THEIR OWN BELIEFS. BUT RATHER THAN SAYING, I 38:41 BELIEVE I'M THE ONLY ONE SAVED OR THEY BELIEVE THEY ARE THE 38:44 ONLY ONE SAVED, I MUST ASK A DIFFERENT QUESTION.-THE BEST WAY TO BE SAVED, THAT 38:58 WOULD GIVE ME THE INFORMATION WHETHER OR NOT I NEED TO FOLLOW 39:04 YOU. BECAUSE THE BIBLE SAYS THIS IS 39:06 THE WAY WALK THEE IN IT. AND THEN THERE IS A AY THAT 39:12 SEEMS RIGHT, BUT IS THE WAY OF DEATH. 39:15 I DON'T WANT MY BELIEF SYSTEMS TO BE JUST A POINT OF COMFORT 39:19 HERE, ONLY TO FIND OUT I HAVE BEEN ABIDING IN DARKNESS AND 39:25 UNTRUTHS. LET ME GET MORE SPECIFIC. 39:27 FOR EXAMPLE, WE BELIEVE IN THE VISIBLE, LITERAL, SECOND COMING 39:31 OF JESUS. >> UH-HUH. 39:33 >> WE -- THE BIBLE -- WE DON'T BELIEVE IN THE SECRET RAPTURE, 39:38 THE SNATCHING AWAY OF THE CHURCH, YET ACCORDING TO THIS 39:43 COMMON PHILOSOPHY, IF BELIEVE THAT ANY DAY NOW, THE CHURCH 39:48 COULD DISAPPEAR. CALLED THE SECRET RAPTURE. 39:54 >> YES, AND THE BIBLE DOESN'T TEACH IT. 39:57 >> THANK YOU. >> AND YOUR POINT IS VERY 40:00 WELL-TAKEN. THERE IS A WAY. 40:02 YOU WANT TO FIND THAT WAY, AND WALK IN THAT WAY. 40:07 NOT WALK PARALLEL TO THAT WAY. THERE IS SOME TRUTH IN EVERY 40:13 RELIGION. BUT WHAT WE WANT IS WHOLE TRUTH. 40:15 >> THAT'S RIGHT. >> WHOLE TRUTH. 40:18 >> YOU WANT TO FIND A WAY, AND THEN ADDRESS YOURSELF TO THAT 40:22 WAY. BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT THAT WAY 40:26 LEADS TO HEAVEN. TAKE SOME DETOUR, WHERE ARE YOU 40:31 GOING TO END UP. BUT THERE IS A WAY ESTABLISHED. 40:34 YOU WANT TO BE IN THAT WAY, BECAUSE YOU KNOW WHERE THAT WAY 40:39 LEADS. >> SO SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS ARE 40:42 CONSIDERED PROTESTANTS. >> THAT'S RIGHT. 40:44 >> THERE ARE PROTESTANTS AND CATHOLICS. 40:47 SO CAN YOU EXPLAIN WHAT IT MEANS TO BE A PROTESTANT. 40:51 BECAUSE THERE ARE A LOT OF FOLK IN THAT GROUP. 40:54 YOU HAVE YOUR CATHOLICS, BUT IF YOU TALK TO BAPTISTS, MOST 41:04 EVANGELICALS, CONSIDER THEMSELVES PROTESTANTS, AM I 41:07 RIGHT? >> TRUE. 41:08 >> BUT WHERE DID THAT TERM COME FROM? 41:12 >> I ASKED PERMISSION FROM THE OLDER GENTLEMEN. 41:15 >> I SEE THAT. >> THANK YOU, PASTOR. 41:18 >> THAT'S THE WAY TO PUT YOU UNDER THE BUS THAT YOU ARE THE 41:23 OLDEST. [ LAUGHTER ] 41:25 >> GO AHEAD. >> PROTESTANT IS A WORD FOR 41:31 PROTEST. YOU HAVE A MOVEMENT THAT STARTED 41:33 IN THE GREATEST CON -- CORN TRIB BU FOR WAS MARTIN LUTHER. 41:47 BUT YOU HAVE OTHERS. >> YES, THE MORNINGSTAR OF THE 41:54 REFORMATION. YOU WERE EITHER CATHOLIC -- THIS 41:57 IS WESTERN CIVILIZATION. >> YES. 42:00 >> AND THAT WAS THE CHURCH. >> THAT'S RIGHT. 42:02 >> BUT THERE WAS ALWAYS A -- A GROUP -- AND -- AND THIS IS SO 42:07 BEAUTIFUL -- GOD HAS ALWAYS HAD A PEOPLE. 42:10 SOMETIMES THEY HAVE BEEN UNDERGROUND, SOMETIMES THEY HAVE 42:12 BEEN ALMOST EXTERMINATED. THEY HAVE HIDDEN, BUT THEN THEY 42:16 CAME ABOVE GROUND. THERE WERE THOSE THAT HAD THE 42:20 FAITH AND GRACE TO SAY WHAT THIS CHURCH IS TEACHING IS NOT IN 42:25 HARMONY WITH THE BIBLE AS WE SEE IT. 42:28 WE SEE GROSS MISREPRESENTATIONS. AND WE HAVE NOT TO REALIGN 42:33 OURSELVES WITH THE WORD OF GOD. SO A PROTEST MOVEMENT WAS BEGUN. 42:39 IT TOOK PLACE OVER MANY, MANY HUNDREDS OF YEARS. 42:43 A LOT OF BLOOD WAS SHED, A LOT OF PEOPLE DIED TO TRY TO 42:49 ESTABLISH THE MOVEMENT. BUT GOD ROSE UP A PEOPLE. 42:56 AND THOSE PEOPLE PROTESTED AGAINST THE THINGS THAT WERE 43:00 BEING DONE THAT THEY FELT WERE NOT BIBLICAL. 43:03 >> THE CHURCH OF ROME, BASICALLY, AND WE CALL IT THE 43:07 OLD COUNTRY AND THE NEW COUNTRY, BUT PEOPLE FLED TO THE NEW 43:11 COUNTRY TO GET AWAY FROM RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION. 43:15 THAT'S PART OF THE REASON FOLKS CAME TO AMERICA, BECAUSE THEY 43:18 WERE BEING PERSECUTED AND LOOKING FOR A LAND OF RELIGIOUS 43:25 FREEDOM. >> AND WHEN THEY GOT TO AMERICA, 43:27 THEY BROUGHT A LOT OF OLD STUFF WITH THEM. 43:29 >> THAT'S RIGHT. >> AFTER 18 YEARS A NUMBER OF 43:32 THINGS CAME OUT OF THAT. BUT THE BIG THING WAS TRADITION 43:37 WAS EQUAL TO SCRIPTURE. NOW YOU ARE SAYING IF WE DO THIS 43:42 LONG ENOUGH, IT SUPERSEDES THE BIBLE. 43:45 JUST BECAUSE YOU DO IT, THAT DOESN'T SUPERSEDE SCRIPTURE, WE 43:50 BASE OUR LIFE ON THE WORD OF GOD. 43:52 AND THINGS COME IN -- WELL, WE DON'T HAVE ROOM FOR A BAPTISM. 43:58 LET'S JUST SPRINKLE. THAT'S TRADITION. 44:01 YOU DO IT LONG ENOUGH, IT BECOMES RELIGION. 44:09 SO WE HAVE GOT TO LINE UP WITH THE WORD OF GOD. 44:13 >> A LOT OF GROUPS THAT WERE COMING UP IN THESE RELIGIOUS 44:20 ORGANIZATIONS, THEY WERE SEPARATING THEMSELVES FROM THE 44:22 CATHOLIC CHURCH. BECAUSE THEY JOINED A GROUP 44:25 CALLED PROTESTANTS, WHICH YOU JUST SAID MEANS TO PROTEST. 44:31 SO BASICALLY SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS IN THE 1800S, WHEN 44:34 THEY CAME ALONG, THEY ALSO JOINED THIS GROUP OF 44:39 PROTESTANTS. NOW DID THESE 44:40 CHURCHES -- METHODISTS, BAPTISTS, PENTECOSTAL, DO ALL OF 44:47 THESE GROUPS THAT CALL THEMSELVES PROTESTANT, DO THEY 44:50 HAVE THE SAME MIND SET OR THE SAME INFORMATION HISTORY WISE 44:55 THAT SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST DO? BECAUSE I'M GETTING TO THIS 44:58 POINT, AND YOU KNOW WHERE I'M GOING, WHAT SEPARATES PEOPLE? 45:02 BECAUSE PEOPLE SAY ARE YOU SURE YOU ARE ADVENTISTS OR 45:09 PROTESTANTS? AND I SAY SOMETIMES JUST TO GET 45:11 THEIR ATTENTION, YES, ARE YOU SURE YOU ARE? 45:15 BECAUSE WHEN THE LUTHERANS BROKE AWAY FROM THE CATHOLIC CHURCH 45:19 THEY WERE PROTESTING -- YOU KNOW, UNDER PROTEST, ALL OF 45:23 THESE OTHERS, BUT SAID, JOHN, IT SEEMS LIKE VERY FEW GROUPS THAT 45:27 THOUGH THEY ARE CALLED PROTESTANT REALLY KNOWS WHAT IT 45:31 MEANS TO BE A PROTESTANT. IF YOU ASK JOHN DOE CHRISTIAN 45:36 WALKING DOWN THE STREET, ARE YOU CATHOLIC OR PROTESTANT? 45:42 THEY WILL SAY I'M PROTESTANT, AND MOST OF THEM DON'T KNOW WHAT 45:50 THAT MEANS. SO WHY ARE YOU DIFFERENT? 45:52 WHY -- HOW DO THAT WORK INTO THIS THING CALLED PROTESTANT. 45:59 >> LET ME ADD THIS POINT. YOU SAID DID ADVENTISTS JOIN THE 46:06 PROSTANT MOVEMENT? IT WAS A MOVEMENT ALL AND OF 46:09 ITSELF IN DEVELOPMENTAL STAGES, WHICH INCLUDED PEOPLE OF OTHER 46:15 FAITHS. >> OKAY. 46:17 >> SO YOU HAD BAPTISTS, METHODISTS, PRESBYTERIANS, AND 46:22 OTHER FAITHS THAT HAD THEIR OWN ESTABLISHED BELIEFS. 46:26 AND ALONG COMES WILLIAM MILLER, WHO -- WHAT WAS HE? 46:31 >> A DEIST. >> A DEIST, AND DIDN'T REALLY 46:36 HAVE A LEANING TOWARDS FOLLOWING GOD, BUT HE BEGAN STUDYING THE 46:41 BIBLE AND CAME UP WITH THE IDEA THAT HEY, THE SECOND ADVENTIST 46:48 IS MAYBE NOT TOO FAR AWAY. AND OUT OF THAT, PEOPLE SAID, 46:55 LET'S LOOK AT THE BIBLE AND SEE WHAT THE BIBLE TEACHES US. 47:00 AND SOME OF THE PRIDE THAT EXISTED WAS SET ASIDE, AND 47:05 PEOPLE GENUINELY DECIDED TO STUDY THE BIBLE. 47:09 WE MAY BE CONSIDERED A CHURCH TODAY IN THE LEGAL SENSE BUT 47:14 WE'RE A MOVEMENT. WHEN THE LORD SAID GO THERE FOR 47:22 AND TEACH ALL NATIONS. >> YES. 47:26 >> THIS MOVEMENT THIS CONTINUAL ROLLING BALL OF CHRISTIANITY 47:31 WOULD ABSORB INTO ANYONE WHO WOULD DECIDE THEY WANTED TO 47:34 RESPOND TO THE CALL. ADVENTISTISM BECAME A MOVEMENT 47:41 LONG BEFORE IT WAS ESTABLISHED AS A CHURCH. 47:45 IS THIS BELIEF ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE. 47:48 YES. IS THIS BELIEF ACCORDING TO THE 47:51 BIBLE? OKAY. 47:51 LET'S ABANDON THAT. AND WILLIAM MILLER DIDN'T ACCEPT 47:57 THE SABBATH, AND WHEN ELLEN WHITE WAS A YOUNG GIRL, SHE 48:01 THOUGHT THERE WAS TOO MUCH EMPHASIS PLACED ON THE BIBLE 48:07 SABBATH, BUT WHEN SHE SAW IT WAS TAUGHT BY SCRIPTURE, ALL OF OUR 48:12 THOUGHTS WERE ESTABLISHED BY STUDYING THE BIBLE. 48:14 AND I WAS JUST GIVING A BIBLE STUDY A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO ON 48:19 THIS PARTICULAR TOPIC. AND I SAID HOW AMAZING THIS IS 48:25 THAT THE PROTESTANT REFORMATION WHICH TOOK OFF, AND THE ROMAN 48:31 CATHOLIC CHURCH WAS THE POWER ALL THROUGHOUT THE WESTERN 48:38 HEMISPHERE AND ALL OF EUROPE, INTERESTING ENOUGH, IN THE YEAR 48:45 1798, ACCORDING TO BIBLE PROPHECY, THE PAPACY RECEIVED A 48:51 DEADLY WOUND. SO FROM 1798 TO 1929, ROME WAS 48:59 PRETTY MUCH A DORMANT RELIGION. AND DURING THAT TIME WHILE GOD 49:07 HANDCUFFED ROME -- [ LAUGHTER ] 49:10 >> GOD HANDCUFFED ROME, BECAUSE GOD SAID I NEED TO BRING BACK 49:17 WHAT HAS BEEN SUPPRESSED IN THE DARK AGES. 49:21 >> AND THEN DURING THIS TIME WHEN ROME WAS SORT OF IN 49:31 HIBER HIBERNATION CAME THE SECOND 49:35 AWAKENING, AND WE WERE PART OF THAT MOVEMENT. 49:37 THE DIFFERENCE WAS IN THE EARLIER PART OF THE REFORMATION, 49:41 THEY WERE SPEARHEADED BY INDIVIDUALS, CALVIN, LUTHER, AND 49:47 FOR THE MOST PART THE CHURCH THAT GROW OUT OF THAT DIDN'T GO 49:51 MUCH FURTHER THAN THE INDIVIDUAL THAT IT WAS BASED ON. 49:54 >> THAT'S RIGHT. >> WHAT HAPPENED WITHED A VENN 50:01 ENTISM, WAS IT WAS BIBLE BASED. ELLEN WHITE GAVE THEM TO US, OR 50:09 JOSEPH GAVE THEM TO US, THEY WERE DONE AS A CONSEQUENCE OF 50:15 BIBLE STUDY. >> THAT'S RIGHT. 50:18 >> AND IT WAS A BLESSING, BECAUSE WE -- WE HAD OUR HOPES 50:22 SET ON THIS DATE, AND IT WAS OBVIOUS, THE NEXT SOMEDAY THAT 50:28 OCTOBER [ INAUDIBLE ] WAS WRONG. IT WAS WRONG. 50:32 WE HAVE GOT TO GO BACK TO THE WORD. 50:35 >> LET THE BIBLE SPEAK. >> LET THE BIBLE SPEAK. 50:42 AND THAT'S THE WAY A FAITH SHOULD DEVELOP. 50:46 BIBLE STUDY AND PRAYER. >> OKAY. 50:48 >> AND SO YOU HAD -- WHAT I WAS SO APPRECIATIVE OF, AND I GOT 50:57 EXCITED IN THIS BIBLE STUDY, HOW GOD -- HOW GOD FORECASTED THAT 51:02 AMERICA WOULD BE THE PLACE WHERE THE CHURCH WOULD BE BORN. 51:05 >> UH-HUH. >> IN REVELATION 12, THE EARTH 51:10 OPENED ITS MOUTH. LET ME MAKE A POINT ABOUT 51:14 PROPHECY, WHEN YOU UNDERSTAND PROPHECY, YOU DON'T HAVE 51:18 BLINDFOLDERS ON, SHOOTING IN THE DARK ABOUT EVENTS THAT WILL 51:23 OCCUR. >> THAT'S RIGHT. 51:24 >> YOU HEARD MANY TIMES WHEN THE GULF WAR BROKE OUT UNDER FIRST 51:32 PRESIDENT BUSH, ALL OF THESE LEADERS OF MAJOR DOMINATIONS 51:36 SAID THIS IS THE BATTLE OF ARM GET DONE. 51:40 >> THAT'S RIGHT. >> I COULD NOT FORGET THE NEWS 51:45 REPORTER THAT WROTE A REBUTTAL IN THE NEWSPAPER IN CALIFORNIA. 51:52 HE SAID IF YOU KNEW, WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY THIS AHEAD OF TIME? 51:58 >> PROPHECY IS NOT HINDSIGHT. IT'S FORESIGHT. 52:03 >> THAT'S RIGHT.-BUT WE KNOW IT WAS SIMPLY A WAR IN IRAQ. 52:08 >> UH-HUH. >> THE MOVEMENTS THAT HAVE COME 52:12 AND GONE. BUT THE BIBLE PREDICTED THAT 52:15 DURING THIS TIME WHEN ROME RECEIVED ITS WOUND, ANOTHER 52:18 CHURCH WOULD BE COMING UP, THE EARTH OPENED HIS MOUTH AND 52:22 HELPED THE WOMAN, REVELATION 12:16, THE EARTH OPENED ITS 52:27 MOUTH AND HELPED THE WOMAN, AND IT SAYS, THE EARTH HELPED THE 52:32 WOMAN, AND THE EARTH OPENED ITS MOUTH AND SWALLOWED UP THE FLOOD 52:39 WHICH THE DRAGON HAD SPEWED OUT OF HIS MOUTH. 52:43 FLOOD BEING PEOPLE. 50 MILLION CHRISTIANS LOST THEIR 52:47 LIVES TO THE TYRANNY OF ROME. AND THE ONLY PLATFORM WAS WE 52:54 WANT THE TRUTH. ROME SAID NO, TRADITION. 52:57 >> AND ONE OF THE GREATEST TRUTHS OF THIS MOVEMENT WAS 53:02 RIGHTEOUSNESS BY FAITH. >> YES. 53:04 >> AND UNTIL THAT POINT, YOU ARE SAVED BASICALLY BY THE CHURCH 53:08 AND POWERS THAT BE -- >> RIGHT. 53:11 >> SO THE PROTESTANT MOVEMENT, I'M TRYING TO GET TO THE POINT 53:15 WHERE WE'RE SEEING THE DIFFERENCE IS, IS ONE OF THE 53:18 GREAT THINGS THAT SAYS WHAT BRINGS PROTESTANTS TOGETHER IS 53:25 RIGHTEOUSNESS BY FAITH. >> THE BIBLE AND THE BIBLE ONLY. 53:29 >> OKAY. >> WHICH TODAY HAS KIND OF LOST 53:36 HIS STEAM. >> YES. 53:38 AND NOW EVEN WITHIN THE PROTESTANT RELIGIONS, I'LL SAY, 53:43 OF THE WORLD, SOME OF THOSE SEEM TO HAVE LOST THEIR UNIQUENESS, 53:50 BECAUSE, ONCE AGAIN, FOLLOWING ROME, AND -- AND SO WHENEVER -- 53:55 >> I JUST WANT TO SAY QUICKLY, AND THAT'S WHY WHAT JOHN BROUGHT 54:03 OUT BEAUTIFULLY. IN THE NEXT CHAPTER, YOU SEE THE 54:10 NEW BEAST COMING UP WHICH IS THE-pUNITED STATES AND PROPHECY. AND WHEN WE WERE YOUNG, WE USED 54:17 TO WATCH HORROR MOVIES. THE END OF THE WORLD, GIANT 54:23 ANTS, GIANT GRASS HOPPERS. THE BIBLE SAYS THAT IS NOT GOING 54:29 TO BE THE END. BECAUSE THE BIBLE DOESN'T SAY 54:33 THAT. BUT PROPHECY GIVES YOU THE 54:36 ASSURANCE OF HOW IT IS GOING TO PLAY OUT. 54:40 WE SEE IN REVELATION 13 A IDENTIFICATION OF THE BEAST, AND 54:46 13:11, HERE COMES THIS LAMB LIKE BEAST COMING UP OUT OF THE 54:52 EARTH, IS IT THE UNITED STATES IN PROPHECY. 54:55 >> AND I WAS TALKING TO THE PERSON I WAS GIVING THE BIBLE 54:59 STUDIES TO, AND IN THE MIDDLE OF LAYING IT OUT, THIS PERSON 55:02 RESPONDED BY SAYIG, I GOT IT. I SEE IT NOW. 55:06 BY UNDERSTANDING BIBLE PROPHECY, THE MODERN TIMES MAKE SENSE. 55:10 WHAT IS HAPENING IN AMERICA. HERE IS WHAT HAPPENED TO THE 55:15 WORD PROTESTANT, IT GOT REPLACED WITH THE WORD AK A COUPLISM. 55:25 PROTESTANTISM MELTED AWAY, AND GOT REPLACED WITH THE MOVEMENT 55:32 BACK. >> OKAY. 55:32 THIS PUSH TO COME BACK. SO YOU DON'T FIND THE WORD 55:36 PROTESTANT ANYMORE. >> OKAY. 55:38 >> TONY PALMER TALKED ABOUT THIS MESSAGE TO POPE FRANCIS, HE SAID 55:42 THE PROTEST IS OVER. MARTIN LUTHER HAD 95 REASONS WHY 55:47 HE PROTESTED, NOT JUST ONE. SO THE PROTEST IS NOT OVER, AND 55:52 THERE ARE THOSE WHO STILL BELIEVE IN THE BIBLE AND THE 55:55 BIBLE ONLY. THE ONLY MAP THAT WILL GET US 55:57 FROM WHERE WE ARE TO WHERE JESUS WANTS US TO BE IN THIS LIFE AND 56:02 THE LIFE TO COME. >> THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS, 56:05 WE CLAIM TO STILL BELIEVE IN THE BIBLE AND THE BILE ONLY, AND 56:10 THEREFORE WE HAVE UNIQUE DIFFERENCES, BUT WE'RE VERY 56:13 WILLING AND OPEN TO DISCUSS, AND THAT'S WHAT WE LOVE TO DO, AND 56:17 THAT'S WHY WE PUT ON THESE PROGRAMS, BECAUSE SOME OF THESE 56:21 THINGS ARE VERY, VERY IMPORTANT. ONLY A WEEK OR TWO AGO, I MET A 56:25 PROFESSOR, AND HE IS A PROFESSOR AT A GREAT UNIVERSITY 56:29 THAT -- NOT A CHRISTIAN, AND HE HAD READ THE BOOK TEN 56:34 COMMANDMENTS TWICE REMOVED, AND HE SAID WHILE I'M NOT ONE OF 56:38 YOU, OR PART OF YOU, AND HE DIDN'T EVEN SAY IF HE WAS 56:43 CHRISTIAN, HE SAID I USE THIS IN MY STUDIES, I RAN ACROSS IT 56:49 BECAUSE YOU MAKE PROFOUND ARGUMENTS THAT I HAVE NEVER SEEN 56:53 ANYBODY GIVE.
