Well, welcome it's
great to be together again CA.
00:01:02.15\00:01:04.91
It is indeed. It is
we've only done a few programs
00:01:04.94\00:01:07.95
since general
conference time. Yeah.
00:01:07.98\00:01:09.90
And together, but we
really did enjoy those night
00:01:09.93\00:01:12.93
light programs. Yeah,
we did. Upon the hills.
00:01:12.96\00:01:15.31
Yeah we did, we did
after someone mention that
00:01:15.34\00:01:17.41
to me even just a couple of
weeks ago a former conference
00:01:17.44\00:01:20.19
president. Yes. He
said I got to go into
00:01:20.22\00:01:22.18
general conference I
have never gone before. Right.
00:01:22.21\00:01:24.72
Yeah. I've got more
mail over that then any.
00:01:24.75\00:01:27.85
It's just been amazing
the number of people that
00:01:27.88\00:01:29.96
enjoy those programs
you and all lot of them.
00:01:29.99\00:01:33.58
Well, the setting was
beautiful too the city
00:01:33.61\00:01:36.12
behind you. Yeah.
And all the big stadium
00:01:36.15\00:01:38.64
It was hot, there
were weeds, if people are
00:01:38.67\00:01:41.39
actually singing where
we were they would have
00:01:41.42\00:01:44.18
said wow how the
world can such a beautiful
00:01:44.21\00:01:46.33
background come
out of this. Yeah.
00:01:47.51\00:01:48.87
But the setting of GC
the auditorium at the Georgia
00:01:48.90\00:01:53.06
Dome and the city of
Atlanta. The people that run
00:01:53.09\00:01:57.51
the facility that
actually rented us that spot I
00:01:58.43\00:02:02.51
have sent him some
footage of our programs and
00:02:02.54\00:02:05.37
the guy wrote me an
e-mail back and he said I cannot
00:02:05.40\00:02:08.61
believe that we have
such a beautiful spot
00:02:08.64\00:02:11.75
we didn't even
know yeah, that we had.
00:02:11.78\00:02:13.85
I think you increase
the property rental on that
00:02:13.88\00:02:16.15
spot by 50
percent, he couldn't realize
00:02:16.18\00:02:19.16
what he has got.
Oh yeah, it's amazing.
00:02:19.19\00:02:21.27
And they are making
some offers they said to some
00:02:21.30\00:02:25.61
of the sports organization
there so forth and showing
00:02:25.64\00:02:29.20
them how the Lord the
blessed with that site up
00:02:29.23\00:02:32.36
there. And it was just amazing
Camille and I were down there
00:02:32.39\00:02:35.55
looking for a place and
we drove up on that hill
00:02:35.58\00:02:39.80
because you know it was
we had have an off location
00:02:39.83\00:02:46.37
and offsite location
and we drove up on the hill
00:02:46.40\00:02:50.22
and we drove up there
and she immediately said this
00:02:50.25\00:02:53.30
is it. And I said you think
so, I said you just keeping
00:02:53.33\00:02:57.54
looking, she said why
are you keeping looking
00:02:57.57\00:02:58.76
but I think this is it. Alright.
00:02:58.79\00:03:01.29
And when CA went down and
look at it he said this is it.
00:03:01.32\00:03:04.36
I called him from the
Hill I said this, get this.
00:03:05.33\00:03:07.47
This is it. This is it.
That's the deal alright.
00:03:07.50\00:03:09.51
And we work with the
folks there, we took a good
00:03:10.52\00:03:13.94
share of the hill and
than along came the folks
00:03:13.97\00:03:17.72
from Oklahoma with, size
mansion, size mansion. Yeah.
00:03:17.75\00:03:21.46
They are the wonderful
folks and there are some
00:03:21.49\00:03:23.31
people there in Atlanta
who were working with them
00:03:23.34\00:03:27.13
and we work for that
group and got the rest of that
00:03:27.16\00:03:31.35
hill up there so we had
a lot of room, but it was
00:03:31.38\00:03:34.94
a great, great time.
And of course lot of that
00:03:34.97\00:03:36.91
set the stage for we
were gonna talk about today
00:03:36.94\00:03:38.65
because we are gonna
look little bit at the
00:03:38.68\00:03:41.12
Annual council. Yeah.
And you recall at General
00:03:41.15\00:03:43.68
Conference some of the
offices that were voted
00:03:43.71\00:03:46.16
at the general
conference the rest of the staff
00:03:46.70\00:03:48.65
was to be filled out later
on the year annual council.
00:03:48.68\00:03:51.31
Exactly and the annual
council each year is almost
00:03:51.34\00:03:55.17
like where it is a
General Conference Committee.
00:03:55.20\00:03:58.11
Yeah. It's the major
general conference committee
00:03:58.14\00:04:00.50
of the year. Everybody
comes in and on top of that
00:04:00.53\00:04:04.46
it's almost like another
general conference session.
00:04:04.49\00:04:06.85
Yeah. Where things are
voted at that annual council
00:04:06.88\00:04:11.16
that carry on through
that next year particularly
00:04:11.93\00:04:14.51
and this was a very
historic annual council,
00:04:15.33\00:04:20.68
very much, and we knew
that it was gonna be that
00:04:20.71\00:04:23.45
way so we had CA there
I had to be on the west
00:04:23.48\00:04:26.90
coast, CA was on the
east coast and he was able
00:04:26.93\00:04:31.07
to be there and he has
got out some really good
00:04:31.10\00:04:33.81
reports that came out of
that I was able to appreciate
00:04:33.84\00:04:38.13
the program on Friday
night when we celebrated
00:04:39.33\00:04:41.83
150th Anniversary
that whole weekend,
00:04:41.86\00:04:46.06
whole weekend you
be talking about that.
00:04:46.09\00:04:47.48
Jim Nix on Friday night
and his group just a very
00:04:47.51\00:04:52.44
inspiring program and
then he continued Sabbath
00:04:52.47\00:04:55.78
morning and Ted Wilson
preached another bell ringer.
00:04:55.81\00:05:00.31
I mean this was a
bell ringer I tell you
00:05:00.34\00:05:04.64
that on a general conference
he had this one I know
00:05:04.67\00:05:08.06
he has got some others
that are slatted and they
00:05:08.09\00:05:10.76
have just been
remarkable in setting the tone
00:05:10.79\00:05:14.95
of the direction that
God's people are headed
00:05:14.98\00:05:19.39
and you know that's
very important to set a tone.
00:05:19.42\00:05:22.11
I am reading here were
Joshua was setting a tone
00:05:23.21\00:05:27.09
before he was going
into the promise land and
00:05:27.12\00:05:31.40
Joshua the third Chapter
Joshua said to the people
00:05:31.43\00:05:35.24
and this
translation the new English,
00:05:35.27\00:05:38.86
The New King James
rather says sanctify yourselves
00:05:40.54\00:05:44.48
the old King James
says Consecrate yourselves.
00:05:45.48\00:05:48.32
Okay. Which I like
that word a little better,
00:05:48.35\00:05:50.86
Consecrate yourselves
for tomorrow the Lord will do
00:05:51.08\00:05:56.51
wonders among you and I
believe that this is what
00:05:56.54\00:05:59.77
God's people are
doing right now consecrating
00:05:59.80\00:06:03.67
themselves stopping and
saying before we go forward
00:06:03.70\00:06:08.32
let's make sure that we
really a right with the Lord
00:06:09.25\00:06:13.73
that we have dedicated
our lives to him that we have
00:06:14.71\00:06:18.49
consecrated our lives
to him that we are not just
00:06:18.52\00:06:21.12
talking about something
that we don't ourselves
00:06:21.15\00:06:24.69
possess and I think that
in Washington last week when
00:06:24.72\00:06:32.16
this meeting was taking
place that we saw a great
00:06:32.19\00:06:36.55
deal of that, we saw
brethren reach the handout
00:06:36.58\00:06:41.27
to each other and say I
am sorry I have held some
00:06:41.30\00:06:46.08
thing against you and in
front of the whole auditorium
00:06:46.11\00:06:49.15
say I am sorry in fact
even on television they are
00:06:49.98\00:06:54.81
being recorded at
that time saying I am sorry
00:06:54.84\00:06:57.29
and I want you to
ask your forgiveness.
00:06:57.32\00:06:59.38
If there is one
thing that I have gleaned
00:07:00.51\00:07:03.09
through I have
heard some of sermons was
00:07:03.12\00:07:05.30
at GC. Elder Ted Wilson
if I could summit it all up
00:07:05.33\00:07:08.41
in one word for
viewers may be seeing what I am
00:07:08.44\00:07:10.69
not exactly sure what we
are talking about it's unity.
00:07:10.72\00:07:13.36
Yeah. And unity
would pretty well describe
00:07:13.39\00:07:16.47
it come together in
unity and we know what happened
00:07:16.50\00:07:19.48
on the day of Pentecost
when they all came together
00:07:19.51\00:07:21.71
in one accord. Right.
And, we're not talking about
00:07:21.74\00:07:23.93
that Honda Accord
we are talking about
00:07:23.96\00:07:25.35
assertive, not a
drive, one accord
00:07:25.38\00:07:27.41
and that's exactly what we seen,
00:07:27.44\00:07:29.30
I think that's why for
me this is especially good
00:07:29.33\00:07:32.87
to my ears because
for so many years in being
00:07:32.90\00:07:35.83
independent used
to call it independent
00:07:36.92\00:07:38.88
ministry than the say well
maybe shall call supporting
00:07:38.91\00:07:41.35
ministry, I never
liked independent because
00:07:41.38\00:07:44.18
you are totaling
supporting on God, so we are not
00:07:44.21\00:07:46.40
independent, but a
supporting ministry at
00:07:46.43\00:07:48.67
Seventh-Day Adventist
Church working with the Church
00:07:48.70\00:07:51.90
and depending on leadership
and the mood so to speak
00:07:51.93\00:07:55.68
at the Church can
affect how we were together.
00:07:55.71\00:07:58.66
Yes. And I have
never seen a time in almost
00:07:58.69\00:08:01.06
26 years that's been so
open and there been such
00:08:01.09\00:08:05.56
a spirit of unity among
the supporting ministries
00:08:05.59\00:08:11.96
and the organized Church,
right ever and people who
00:08:11.99\00:08:14.71
know me CA, I never
said this before 26 years
00:08:14.74\00:08:18.93
so I'm gonna be bold
enough to say it now and you
00:08:18.96\00:08:21.87
won't go find any before
this year since the last GC
00:08:21.90\00:08:25.74
session, we are going back
and saying we got this great
00:08:25.77\00:08:28.16
spirit of corporation
everything gonna go not at
00:08:28.19\00:08:30.68
all bad, but I am
just saying people do there
00:08:30.71\00:08:33.71
thing, we do ours, and
others do theirs and we
00:08:33.74\00:08:36.52
all doing some good,
but to see a complete spirit
00:08:36.55\00:08:39.63
of unity this is the first
time I have seen it literally
00:08:39.66\00:08:42.94
come down from the
general conference head.
00:08:42.97\00:08:44.87
Yes. As the president
saying this is what we are
00:08:44.90\00:08:47.67
gonna do. So I for one
that's a two hander. Amen.
00:08:47.70\00:08:51.09
And I am so thankful
because what we can do
00:08:51.12\00:08:53.27
together as so
much more that we can do
00:08:53.30\00:08:55.64
ever separately. Amen.
Well Danny along that line
00:08:55.67\00:08:58.87
I'm gonna ask you to
have a special prayer for our
00:08:58.90\00:09:02.76
people for their needs,
for our Church, for this
00:09:02.79\00:09:07.08
message and for this
spiritual revival that's taking
00:09:07.11\00:09:11.62
place in this movement
of unity of our working
00:09:11.65\00:09:15.54
together would you
pray for us. Sure. Alright.
00:09:15.57\00:09:17.53

history we want to
thank you for the tools
00:09:26.83\00:09:28.95
that you have
given us as 3 angles
00:09:28.98\00:09:31.10
broadcasting network that
literally through satellites
00:09:31.13\00:09:34.10
and equipment that you
have in technology we can
00:09:34.13\00:09:36.52
reach in lost and dying
world. We are so thankful
00:09:36.55\00:09:39.47
for the spirit of cooperation
that we are seeing filtering
00:09:39.50\00:09:42.46
all the way down
from Elder Ted Wilson,
00:09:42.49\00:09:44.49
our general
conference president down to the
00:09:44.52\00:09:46.95
divisions, the unions
around the world that we
00:09:46.98\00:09:50.06
believe them what we are
seeing that they are true
00:09:50.09\00:09:53.03
revivals on reformation

00:09:53.06\00:09:55.86
have never seen before
many of us agreed that,
00:09:55.89\00:09:58.24
so we are so thankful
for that and yes we know the
00:09:58.27\00:10:00.78
enemies out to steal,
kill and destroy, enemy is
00:10:00.81\00:10:03.69
not gonna be happy, but is
not happy with what going on,
00:10:03.72\00:10:06.32
but we just rebuke him
today in the name of Jesus.
00:10:06.35\00:10:09.23
Amen. We know that
you are coming and your
00:10:09.26\00:10:10.67

and you are looking for a
00:10:10.70\00:10:13.27
people who would give
their lives on to death
00:10:13.30\00:10:15.35
if necessary for the
cause of God and so Lord
00:10:15.38\00:10:17.66

You know, I am sorry,
before we go to our song
00:10:41.81\00:10:43.99
one of the question,
now we are all at general
00:10:45.12\00:10:46.59
conference, we heard
the calls for unity and the
00:10:46.62\00:10:51.39
question that I had was
is this sort of campaign kind
00:10:51.42\00:10:54.94

just something its gonna
00:10:54.97\00:10:56.23

under tent and joined
hands together and being at
00:11:01.91\00:11:04.39
annual council and you
said he said one of us needs
00:11:04.42\00:11:07.67

see what's going on and be
00:11:07.70\00:11:11.04

we are going,

00:11:18.11\00:11:19.66
a temporary thing or one
time thing this is the wave
00:11:19.69\00:11:22.60
of the future this is
what we are gonna do we are
00:11:22.63\00:11:24.86

to finish the work of
God. And of course as Danny
00:11:30.50\00:11:32.40
said music tool to our ear .
00:11:32.43\00:11:34.18
That's right, I have
talked to number of people

work in that building so
00:11:36.49\00:11:38.90
I know a lot of them. And
I talk to Clifford Goldstein
00:11:38.93\00:11:41.71
I said Clifford what's
the feeling there and he
00:11:42.81\00:11:46.34
said Jim in 26 years I
have been in this building
00:11:46.37\00:11:49.42
I have never seen anything
like this he said people
00:11:50.22\00:11:54.06
are getting
together and praying he said
00:11:54.09\00:11:56.54
there is a genuine
revival taking place.
00:11:56.57\00:12:00.47
Yeah it's
incredible. It's wonderful.
00:12:00.50\00:12:02.22
Well, listen Danny, I
want to ask you a question
00:12:02.25\00:12:05.03
how long have you
known Darrell Marshall?
00:12:05.06\00:12:07.19
I have known
Darrell Marshall since over
00:12:08.15\00:12:10.19
shepherd was a pup.
Those shepherd dead now.
00:12:10.22\00:12:13.61
Darrel is gonna be
singing force today.
00:12:13.64\00:12:17.94
I have known
Darrell for quite few
00:12:17.97\00:12:19.08
years and he is a
wonderful guy, very fun loving
00:12:19.11\00:12:22.58
guy, I knew him and
known him a few years before
00:12:22.61\00:12:25.84
his first wife was killed
in an accident and Darrell
00:12:25.87\00:12:30.45
recently remarried just a
couple of months or so ago
00:12:30.48\00:12:33.24
and so I'm down to
Gospel music quartet convention
00:12:33.27\00:12:36.44
in Louisville and he
is just happy as a lot
00:12:36.47\00:12:40.33
as they say I am using
a lot of Southern Illinois
00:12:40.36\00:12:43.21
slang here, CA you're hearing
so far and Jim, but I've known
00:12:43.24\00:12:47.14
Darrell for longtime, a
great guy loves the Lord
00:12:47.17\00:12:49.38
and I think he was one
of my favorite singers.
00:12:50.03\00:12:51.64
Yeah, what he is you
gonna sing for us today.
00:12:51.67\00:12:53.58
Well, I wish I
knew. There is a River.
00:12:54.53\00:12:57.05
That's right. That's
what he is gonna sing
00:12:57.08\00:12:59.09
I like everything
Darrell Marshall I've yet to
00:12:59.12\00:13:01.10
hear him a sing
song I don't like.
00:13:01.13\00:13:02.76
The guy is so smooth, I
really, really loves to hear.
00:13:02.79\00:13:06.35
Great pitch, great songs
too. Yeah, he does. Yeah,
00:13:06.38\00:13:07.35
that's important
that is extremely.
00:13:07.36\00:13:10.49
It really is he has a
knack for that and reaching in
00:13:10.52\00:13:14.99
all his songs basically
talk about the cross of Calvary
00:13:15.02\00:13:18.14
and about salvation. Yeah. So
that length you know basically
00:13:18.98\00:13:22.19
everything else, so I am
on same page with Darrell
00:13:22.22\00:13:24.24
he is anybody ever
says anything about Darrell
00:13:24.27\00:13:26.68
Marshall said no. No.
He got fire on your hands
00:13:26.71\00:13:28.66
because I love the guy I
love his music and not only
00:13:28.69\00:13:32.71
the way he projects it
and sings his instrument,
00:13:32.74\00:13:35.45
his voice, but the
music and there is a rivers
00:13:35.48\00:13:38.73
is a beautiful song. It
is well let's listen to it.
00:13:38.76\00:13:40.88
There is a river and
it flows from deep within.
00:13:55.25\00:14:12.79
There is a fountain and
it frees the soul from sin.
00:14:15.58\00:14:33.85
Come to this water,
for is a vast supply.
00:14:35.22\00:14:53.56
There is a river
that never shall run dry.
00:14:55.24\00:15:13.75
There came a thirsty woman,
00:15:14.84\00:15:22.87
and she was drawing from a well.
00:15:23.89\00:15:32.22
You see her life it
was ruined and wasted,
00:15:34.44\00:15:43.31
and her soul it
was bound for hell.
00:15:43.92\00:15:52.47
Oh, But then she met the Master,
00:15:52.50\00:16:03.56
and there he
told her of her sin.
00:16:03.59\00:16:13.01
He said if you'll
drink from this water,
00:16:14.37\00:16:23.56
you'll never thirst again.
00:16:24.30\00:16:33.49
There is a river and it
flows from the with Thee.
00:16:35.24\00:16:53.71
There is a fountain,
and it frees soul from sin.
00:16:55.48\00:17:13.57
Come to this water,
where there is vast supply.
00:17:15.09\00:17:32.74
There is a river,
that never shall run dry.
00:17:35.18\00:17:58.02
Well the Lord
really has blessed.
00:18:03.51\00:18:05.33
Darrell with great voice.
00:18:05.36\00:18:07.13
I love it There is a river
shall run dry that what's it
00:18:07.16\00:18:10.30
all about is serving the
God of Universe the creator
00:18:10.33\00:18:16.42
God of the Universe
cared enough about you
00:18:16.45\00:18:19.58
and me to device the
plan he saw our wickedness
00:18:19.61\00:18:22.09
after the fall of men and
device the plan that he was
00:18:22.12\00:18:25.34
willing to give his only
son, and his only son was
00:18:25.37\00:18:28.50
willing to come and
make that sacrifice unity
00:18:28.53\00:18:31.48
again we are
talking about. Amen. Right.
00:18:31.51\00:18:33.33
God the father son the
Holy Spirit said we are gonna
00:18:33.36\00:18:36.24
make a plan we gonna
redeem those folks because
00:18:36.27\00:18:38.61
right now there is no
hope, you die that's it.
00:18:38.64\00:18:41.25
From the dust you
came, the dust you go.
00:18:41.28\00:18:42.94
God breathe in a man
gave men breath of life men
00:18:44.11\00:18:46.28
became a living soul
now man is gonna die,
00:18:46.31\00:18:48.68
and he dead forever,
yeah, that's no good.
00:18:48.71\00:18:50.74
So the creator says you
know I'm half of the omega
00:18:52.08\00:18:57.07
at the beginning at the
end. Satan is doing I've
00:18:57.10\00:18:59.76
allowed him to do what
he wants to do, but there
00:18:59.79\00:19:02.60
is a time that is
gonna stop and I am gonna led
00:19:02.63\00:19:04.55
to people who have a
choice. We gonna make this
00:19:04.58\00:19:07.14
supreme sacrifice my
shed blood on the cross
00:19:07.17\00:19:09.71
of Calvary and anyone
who wants to be saved anyone
00:19:09.74\00:19:13.17
no matter where are
from, your background. Amen.
00:19:13.20\00:19:15.34
Doesn't make any
difference all you have to do
00:19:15.37\00:19:17.69
is call on the name
of the Lord Jesus Christ
00:19:17.72\00:19:19.91
to be saved as God to
forgive from your sins,
00:19:19.94\00:19:22.54
cleanse you from
all in righteousness
00:19:22.57\00:19:24.40
and he will do it. He will.
00:19:24.43\00:19:26.04
And then you only have
to do one thing go and tell
00:19:26.07\00:19:28.30
what he has done for you. Amen.
00:19:28.33\00:19:29.36
Your greatest asset is
your own personal testimony
00:19:29.39\00:19:32.57
what God has done for you
isn't that incredible. It is.
00:19:32.60\00:19:34.96
And that's all we
have to do and that's all
00:19:34.99\00:19:36.86
we are doing here
at 3 ABN That's it.
00:19:36.89\00:19:38.12
26 years ago when I was
impressed to build television
00:19:38.15\00:19:40.81
station to reach the
world we didn't have anything
00:19:40.84\00:19:43.55
to gain, anything
particular other than we wanted
00:19:43.58\00:19:46.19
people to know
there is a Savior. Yeah.
00:19:46.22\00:19:49.07
There is Savior, Darrell
saying, 'there is a river
00:19:50.24\00:19:52.19
that never shall run
dry'. Well that's Jesus,
00:19:52.22\00:19:54.66
He is our River. God's
love for fallen man, Yeah,
00:19:54.69\00:19:57.46
never run dry so always
there is God, we're blessed,
00:19:58.27\00:20:01.16
I mean honestly.
You know we really are.
00:20:01.19\00:20:03.43
We are and you know
26 years ago 3ABN begins
00:20:03.65\00:20:09.09
and we are talking about
the Seventh-Day Adventist Church
00:20:09.12\00:20:13.02
began about 150 years
ago, and that's is particularly
00:20:13.05\00:20:17.49
when they named it. Yeah.
00:20:17.52\00:20:19.57
Well before we talk
about that I wanna ask you,
00:20:19.60\00:20:21.70
how did you come
up with the name 3ABN,
00:20:22.52\00:20:25.66
I mean 3 Angels
Broadcasting Network. Yeah.
00:20:26.85\00:20:29.05
When I heard it, I first
heard it that's 25 years ago
00:20:29.08\00:20:33.11
I thought, wow, that's
genius where they come from,
00:20:33.97\00:20:36.69
because that,
preaches a message in the title
00:20:36.72\00:20:40.24
of a network. Well it
does and so, I won't take
00:20:40.27\00:20:43.66
the credit for, I will
give God to credit for, but he
00:20:43.69\00:20:46.15
started something good,
and he finishes what he starts.
00:20:46.18\00:20:48.64
I didn't know what to
call it, but as I really think
00:20:49.01\00:20:51.01
about it. I remember
the night I was impressed
00:20:51.04\00:20:53.52
to build a station
and then the next morning
00:20:53.55\00:20:55.35
the nerve to call people. Yeah.
00:20:55.38\00:20:57.25
My brother and others
say, Lord impressed me
00:20:57.28\00:20:59.58
to build a network now as
I look back at it it's really
00:20:59.61\00:21:03.47
so real because, nobody
would have, I wouldn't have
00:21:03.50\00:21:06.45
that much nerve to do
something like that to really
00:21:06.48\00:21:10.04
what was going through
my mind and you know what
00:21:10.75\00:21:12.74
could have been going because
reality was no education,
00:21:12.77\00:21:15.51
you know, no money, knew
nothing about television,
00:21:15.54\00:21:19.74
saying in front of
cameras. The reality of it, but
00:21:19.77\00:21:22.11
when I accepted that to
say okay Lord if this is
00:21:22.14\00:21:25.18
really you, you know, I
will go forward and never
00:21:25.21\00:21:26.79
beg for money,
never borrow money,
00:21:26.82\00:21:28.70
didn't have any credit
couldn't borrow money so
00:21:28.73\00:21:31.41
we still try and never
to beg for money though
00:21:31.44\00:21:33.70
we think it's fine
to make our needs now,
00:21:33.73\00:21:35.35
yeah, and so one
night, we do we had a need.
00:21:35.38\00:21:37.76
Yeah, within
probably days and we will talk
00:21:38.32\00:21:40.39
about some of
those I think we should.
00:21:40.42\00:21:41.82
Within days of that I
don't remember if it is a day
00:21:41.85\00:21:45.21
or a week I went to
sleep one night had a dream
00:21:45.24\00:21:47.18
and I saw when I was looking
00:21:48.40\00:21:49.72
out it was like I saw the entire
00:21:49.75\00:21:51.07
universe, so all the
stars as I was looking one arm
00:21:51.10\00:21:53.97
began to come closure to
me and it has got closure
00:21:54.00\00:21:57.05
to me, I heard
people say you don't dream
00:21:57.08\00:21:59.03
in color but I am sure
I did because it look like
00:21:59.06\00:22:00.93
planet earth, and then
I saw the strangest things
00:22:00.96\00:22:03.76
I saw angels flying like
this around the earth I saw
00:22:04.69\00:22:08.37
this angel in my mind now
what's an angel really look
00:22:08.40\00:22:11.73
like I don't know, but
what I saw was probably
00:22:11.76\00:22:13.89
what I've read in the
Bible I saw the angel,
00:22:13.92\00:22:15.65
flying around and it
actually had a trumpet in his
00:22:15.68\00:22:19.61
hand and when it blew
this trumpet, this word
00:22:19.64\00:22:22.55
three came out. The
second one came underneath it
00:22:22.58\00:22:25.17
and said angels and
third one said broadcasting.
00:22:25.20\00:22:27.87
That's in your dream.
In my dream. Wow. Well.
00:22:27.90\00:22:30.36
I saw three angels broadcasting.
00:22:30.39\00:22:31.90
You saw the logo in other words.
00:22:31.93\00:22:33.85
And people have seen
the old logo we had for
00:22:33.88\00:22:36.57
the anniversary so we
went down to Jerry Reed's
00:22:36.60\00:22:38.96
studios we had no equipments,
00:22:38.99\00:22:40.34
we had nothing at that
time, so somebody gave us
00:22:40.37\00:22:43.91
enough money we went
down to Nashville to Jerry
00:22:43.94\00:22:45.84
Reed to get on guitar
players, he had some studios
00:22:45.87\00:22:48.50
and I told the guy
what I saw and for there,
00:22:48.53\00:22:52.60
you know, this has had
been in 1984 early 1985 what
00:22:52.63\00:22:57.24
have you that time we
actually got enough money
00:22:57.27\00:22:58.78
to put it together and
told him what we saw, so he made
00:22:58.81\00:23:01.99
that as you see now
wouldn't be that great of
00:23:02.02\00:23:05.17
characters, but the
angels flying and blowing
00:23:05.20\00:23:07.29
so three angels broadcasting
in course I didn't wanna
00:23:07.32\00:23:09.95
be three angles
broadcasting TV and network
00:23:09.98\00:23:12.78
that would reach the
world, so we added the name
00:23:12.81\00:23:15.56
network Three
Angels Broadcasting Network
00:23:15.59\00:23:17.72
so really just came in
a dream and so I accepted
00:23:17.75\00:23:21.51
it okay must be the Lord
and so I told the guy what
00:23:21.54\00:23:24.11
I saw and so the older promo
what you call it the older.
00:23:24.14\00:23:28.42
Older Logos. Logos that you
see when you see those that's
00:23:28.45\00:23:31.32
basically what I saw
planet earth showed itself from
00:23:31.35\00:23:34.59
the rest of the universe
is it came I could see it was
00:23:34.62\00:23:37.08
planet earth and I
saw these angels circling
00:23:37.11\00:23:39.12
like this and I said
wow. Three angels broadcasting
00:23:39.15\00:23:41.97
networks so that's got to
be hit, didn't argue with it,
00:23:42.00\00:23:45.33
just did it. That's
amazing, amazing story.
00:23:45.36\00:23:48.66
And the name preaches a
sermon and interestingly
00:23:48.69\00:23:51.41
enough that's what
Elder Wilson stressed in his
00:23:51.44\00:23:55.77
message at the
Annual Council that the name
00:23:55.80\00:23:58.14
Seventh-Day
Adventist is a sermon. Yeah.
00:23:58.17\00:24:00.39
And he said, let's
not do I am Adventist or
00:24:00.42\00:24:02.93
I'm SDA he said, say
it out preach the sermon
00:24:02.96\00:24:04.89
Seventh-Day Adventist
because it preaches the
00:24:04.92\00:24:08.25
sermon, we are we
keep the Seventh-Day we are
00:24:08.28\00:24:10.70
looking for and preparing
for and working for the
00:24:10.73\00:24:13.89
Advent of Christ, so
he said say the name out
00:24:13.92\00:24:16.65
and respect the
name, as we do three angels
00:24:16.68\00:24:19.32
broadcasting networks
that's a mouthful water,
00:24:19.35\00:24:21.45
when I first read it. Yeah.
00:24:21.48\00:24:22.69
Three angels broadcasting
network, but it's impressive
00:24:22.72\00:24:25.18
that it does preaches
a sermon it does. Yeah.
00:24:25.21\00:24:26.98
And here is amazing
thing I knew very little about
00:24:27.01\00:24:30.54
I want to confess. Rick
Odell used to say confessions
00:24:30.57\00:24:33.31
good for, so we are
hard on the reputation.
00:24:33.34\00:24:35.41
Yeah. But I really
knew very little about the 3
00:24:35.44\00:24:38.21
angels messages, so
wasn't like a burden to my
00:24:38.24\00:24:40.90
heart that I wanted to
tell the world about the
00:24:40.93\00:24:42.62
3 angels messages I was
raised in an Adventist home
00:24:42.65\00:24:46.01
I could argue with
you and I did even as a
00:24:47.04\00:24:49.15
child in school. I
would take my Bible school
00:24:49.18\00:24:51.96
just loved to argue
with kids and show them
00:24:51.99\00:24:53.78
they were wrong about Sabbath
or the stayed at the dead
00:24:53.81\00:24:56.22
about eating pork, all kinds
of stuff and as I got older
00:24:56.25\00:25:00.32
that thing kind a
continued and I was raised
00:25:00.35\00:25:03.17
in a fairly legalistic,
you don't do this, you don't do
00:25:03.20\00:25:06.10
this and this is what
you doing you don't do and
00:25:06.13\00:25:08.90
so you know here I
am coming from that kind
00:25:08.93\00:25:11.75
of a background, so I
didn't really study the 3 angels
00:25:11.78\00:25:15.67
message per see to
seek, you know fear God
00:25:15.70\00:25:18.79
and give glory to
him for the judgment is
00:25:18.82\00:25:21.11
come worship him that
created Heaven and earth.
00:25:21.14\00:25:22.86
I had heard all of those
things, but 3ABN was not,
00:25:22.89\00:25:26.16
if I had to come up with
the name I did call it as
00:25:26.19\00:25:27.78
Sabbath keeping whatever
or I to call it, you know,
00:25:27.81\00:25:30.92
whatever it wouldn't
not have been 3ABN so just
00:25:30.95\00:25:34.14
a thought of it give
when the Lord impress me that
00:25:34.17\00:25:37.05
first night November
14th 1984 I want you to build
00:25:37.08\00:25:41.09
a television station
that will reach the world with
00:25:41.12\00:25:43.44
undiluted 3 angels
messages one would counteract
00:25:43.47\00:25:46.70
the counterfeit I
didn't even know what that
00:25:46.73\00:25:48.96
meant, so that's
how I know it wasn't me,
00:25:48.99\00:25:51.25
I said either this is a
God or this is of the Devil,
00:25:51.28\00:25:54.27
so the only thing I
knew to do as Isaiah 8:20 my
00:25:54.30\00:25:57.45
parents used to tell
me, to the law and to the
00:25:57.48\00:25:59.44
testimony, it says,
they speak not according
00:25:59.47\00:26:01.59
to this word there is
not light in it so all
00:26:01.62\00:26:03.73
I did was say okay if
there were a television
00:26:03.76\00:26:06.38
station giving and I
had to briefly understood
00:26:06.41\00:26:10.78
I should say a little
bit have a understanding
00:26:10.81\00:26:12.76
the angels messages
knew there it was kind
00:26:12.79\00:26:15.49
of unique to Seventh-Day
Adventist what we preach
00:26:15.52\00:26:17.74
if it were, you
know, the word such as
00:26:17.77\00:26:21.22
television station
could reach the world,
00:26:21.25\00:26:23.21
what would be at
the Lord, as the devil,
00:26:23.24\00:26:24.28
but only took me like
a spilt second say got
00:26:24.31\00:26:27.28
to be the Lord so
that's good enough for me.
00:26:27.31\00:26:29.00
Yeah. Right. Let's
do it. And then a few
00:26:29.03\00:26:31.32
nights later, might
in be one week or two.
00:26:31.35\00:26:33.03
I don't remember the
dream and then after few
00:26:33.06\00:26:35.65
months or however a
long till we could get some
00:26:35.68\00:26:37.61
money to get the
little graphic put up,
00:26:37.64\00:26:40.50
you know ,so
had came about. Wow.
00:26:40.53\00:26:43.77
You know CA you have
always had a strong interest
00:26:43.80\00:26:48.30
in history, Church
history specifically and even
00:26:48.33\00:26:51.95
denominational history
tell us a little bit about
00:26:51.98\00:26:55.21
this 150th
Anniversary of our name how did
00:26:55.24\00:26:59.76
we get our name, as
Seventh-Day Adventist.
00:26:59.79\00:27:01.66
The move to incorporate
that grew into the move
00:27:03.77\00:27:06.50
to get the name came
from a need that we had
00:27:06.53\00:27:11.46
to do something with
the property that we on,
00:27:12.74\00:27:13.96
you know, right, James
what had this publishing
00:27:13.99\00:27:15.62
of his paying the bills
he is making the payments
00:27:15.65\00:27:18.34
as all on him. And he is
saying this, I got to get off
00:27:18.37\00:27:21.09
from onto the way to this
so we were forced into because
00:27:21.12\00:27:24.27
as you will know, the
early Adventist pioneers
00:27:24.30\00:27:26.92
felt we ought not
to denominationalise,
00:27:26.95\00:27:29.45
because that would
become Bibelot, so that
00:27:29.48\00:27:31.88
with this mood to
stay independent to stay
00:27:31.91\00:27:34.42
congregational, but if
we are gonna have property
00:27:34.45\00:27:37.71
if we are gonna own
things we got to have some sort
00:27:37.74\00:27:39.67
of regulation plus
your administers going out
00:27:39.70\00:27:42.05
claiming to be
Adventist teaching non-Adventist
00:27:42.08\00:27:44.32
Doctrines and so the
brethrens say we have to
00:27:44.35\00:27:46.11
have some kind of
credential because everybody is
00:27:46.14\00:27:48.12
claiming to be, to be
part of us, and some of these
00:27:48.15\00:27:50.93
guys, by what they
saying are not part of us.
00:27:50.96\00:27:53.31
Right. So we were kind
of forced into organizing
00:27:53.34\00:27:57.85
ourselves and then they
realize the organization
00:27:57.88\00:28:00.47
is of God. You know
it's not, just not Godly
00:28:00.50\00:28:03.23
to be haphazard.
Look at Moses. Yeah.
00:28:03.26\00:28:06.57
Look at the entire
children of Israel.
00:28:06.60\00:28:08.21
Criticizing. How
God organize things.
00:28:08.24\00:28:09.88
God has some organization.
00:28:09.91\00:28:10.88
Right, and so the
meetings began in May of 1860
00:28:10.89\00:28:14.74
and it was on October
2, 1860 that the brethren
00:28:14.77\00:28:16.99
came together all
kinds of names shut door and
00:28:17.02\00:28:21.10
annihilation is in and
Church of Christ. Church of God
00:28:21.13\00:28:27.16
I mean some long
convoluted names and actually
00:28:27.19\00:28:30.81
James wife John
Byanten, some of this guys put
00:28:30.84\00:28:33.53
their way behind Church of God.
00:28:33.56\00:28:36.84
Yes. They like
Church of God they said
00:28:36.87\00:28:38.78
I soon as we see in
Bible, is Church of God
00:28:38.81\00:28:40.32
and otherwise said
no, we are not doing
00:28:40.35\00:28:43.40
Church of God.
Well she thought that
00:28:43.43\00:28:44.94
was just little bit,
too exclusive, precisely.
00:28:44.97\00:28:48.29
We thought we were the only one,
00:28:48.32\00:28:49.97
there is here every body
wants to be Church of God
00:28:50.00\00:28:51.74
plus you hide too
much stuff behind that name
00:28:51.77\00:28:53.90
you know she said we
want to name it as distinct
00:28:53.93\00:28:55.91
that preaches the
sermon and Church of God
00:28:55.94\00:28:58.07
is just little too
generally he can put too much
00:28:58.10\00:29:00.20
back door stuff
behind in and so.
00:29:00.23\00:29:02.17
She worked against it and
well there is some churches
00:29:02.20\00:29:05.69
name church of God we
are sending things that,
00:29:05.72\00:29:07.94
you know. No, no.
Was they already had the
00:29:07.97\00:29:10.50
name we didn't want
try it anymore on that,
00:29:10.53\00:29:12.80
right as you,. She
want to start it little
00:29:12.83\00:29:13.80
more specific
because she thought this is a
00:29:13.81\00:29:15.11
specific move of God and
the name ought to be specific
00:29:15.14\00:29:18.30
so that, and the
name Adventist was a fit,
00:29:18.84\00:29:21.74
you know the people
were using it but it had
00:29:21.77\00:29:24.28
we hadn't really
qualified it so they prayed
00:29:24.31\00:29:26.89
and they felt that
God gave us as God gave
00:29:26.92\00:29:30.77
you 3ABN, God gave
us Seventh-Day Adventist
00:29:30.80\00:29:34.68
because it highlights
the most unique features
00:29:34.71\00:29:36.84
of the faith and
the brethren didn't find
00:29:36.87\00:29:38.37
to get to this on light in it.
00:29:38.40\00:29:39.58
And by the way it
also sort goes along with
00:29:39.61\00:29:43.07
Seventh-Day Baptist
they were already a group.
00:29:43.10\00:29:45.78
A Baptist group
that kept the Sabbath
00:29:45.81\00:29:48.41
Seventh-Day Baptist
and we were Seventh-Day
00:29:49.32\00:29:51.01
Adventist, yeah, so
they were some rhyme and
00:29:51.04\00:29:53.89
reason to it, it
was just a totally
00:29:53.92\00:29:56.10
out of the blue kind of thing.
00:29:56.13\00:29:58.64
Yeah, the nails
were not unique it was
00:29:58.67\00:30:00.94
bringing
together of the elements.
00:30:00.97\00:30:02.41
Seventh-Day an Adventism,
those, those, that bring
00:30:02.93\00:30:05.34
there in and of course brethren
00:30:05.37\00:30:06.34
voted it through 150
years ago and Ted Wilson
00:30:06.35\00:30:10.81
said this is our name
it is your name give it
00:30:10.84\00:30:12.95
a name unique name
given to us by God.
00:30:12.98\00:30:15.92
Yeah, Yeah.
00:30:15.95\00:30:16.92
And one we're to be
very, very proud off
00:30:16.93\00:30:18.08
in these last days.
Well I mean I think it's,
00:30:18.61\00:30:22.51
it's wonderful I have
always been I don't know
00:30:22.54\00:30:25.43
if the word proud or but
honored to be able to say
00:30:25.46\00:30:27.79
I am a Seventh-Day
Adventist Christian
00:30:27.82\00:30:29.75
I try not to say on
the Seventh-Day Adventist.
00:30:30.17\00:30:32.83
Yeah. Alright.
00:30:32.86\00:30:33.83
I like to put that name,
I'm a Seventh-Day Adventist
00:30:33.84\00:30:35.84
Christian lot of
people say we don't know what
00:30:35.87\00:30:37.71
that is people
accuses been occult or
00:30:37.74\00:30:39.75
people will say Oh
you're Mormon, you later
00:30:39.78\00:30:42.35
day say now we're
Seventh-Day Adventist,
00:30:42.38\00:30:43.64
however, you job
was witnessed no we're
00:30:43.67\00:30:45.50
Seventh-Day Adventist
Christians. I think names
00:30:45.53\00:30:47.82
are important and I
think God gave that name
00:30:47.85\00:30:50.35
and God gave 3ABN I
am convinced the name
00:30:50.38\00:30:53.17
that we have and
it should be said, Jim
00:30:53.20\00:30:57.14
and CA that 3ABN is
never had the intentions
00:30:57.17\00:31:02.67
and never wanted
to be a Church we have
00:31:02.70\00:31:05.60
always whole
heartedly supported the
00:31:05.63\00:31:07.37
Seventh-Day
Adventist Church. Absolutely.
00:31:07.40\00:31:09.43
And so everything that
we do and the doctrines
00:31:09.46\00:31:13.40
what we believe a
theology is one with the
00:31:13.43\00:31:16.35
Seventh-Day
Adventist Church it always
00:31:16.38\00:31:17.81
has been.
Absolutely. Are working you know
00:31:17.84\00:31:20.29
when it comes to
management when it comes to be
00:31:20.32\00:31:23.01
in a separate
legally you have this
00:31:23.04\00:31:26.43
Seventh-Day
Adventist Church you have
00:31:26.46\00:31:27.68
3 angels broadcasting network.
00:31:27.71\00:31:29.44
We are separate. Yeah.
00:31:29.47\00:31:30.44
And so we are not
supported by the Church
00:31:30.47\00:31:33.01
financially and in
any sense and don't really
00:31:33.04\00:31:36.68
think that we should be
00:31:36.71\00:31:37.68
necessarily
these are from people
00:31:37.69\00:31:39.38
who want to support
the Church and support 3ABN
00:31:39.41\00:31:42.00
great you know so I
think that part is wonderful
00:31:42.03\00:31:46.54
we have the
separate names, but we work
00:31:46.57\00:31:48.96
separately but we
are seeing unity like we
00:31:48.99\00:31:51.95
never seen before
and I want to say one
00:31:51.98\00:31:53.72
of the thing if I can take,
00:31:53.75\00:31:55.34
can I take just another moment.
00:31:55.37\00:31:56.60
You got plenty of time.
00:31:56.63\00:31:57.95
When I talk about
finances I want to say that
00:31:57.98\00:32:00.64
the folks at home
honestly this is probably
00:32:00.67\00:32:03.38
and as I told you so I
am not gonna go into begging
00:32:03.85\00:32:06.39
but I'm gonna let
the folks know the
00:32:06.42\00:32:07.74
fact this is probably
00:32:07.77\00:32:08.77
the lowest that I
can remember our finances
00:32:08.80\00:32:12.02
ever being and
still continued to do all
00:32:12.05\00:32:14.21
that we do I mean as
for as not saying we've had
00:32:14.24\00:32:17.45
a few people who given
some fairly big donations
00:32:17.48\00:32:21.67
recently if I had to benefit
that, I really don't know
00:32:21.70\00:32:24.32
only God's blessings
is 3ABN still on the air
00:32:24.35\00:32:28.33
right now. Because I
think people think when
00:32:28.36\00:32:31.07
you become 25 years
old that you are just a,
00:32:31.10\00:32:34.32
or it what it call
like, like you know,
00:32:35.15\00:32:36.64
it is, institution,
or like an institution,
00:32:36.67\00:32:39.61
and unlike the Church
we don't have people paying
00:32:40.11\00:32:42.65
ties every week to
3ABN and we don't have these
00:32:42.68\00:32:46.38
dollars coming in,
so 3ABN is only here by
00:32:46.41\00:32:50.06
your continued
financial support.
00:32:50.09\00:32:51.98
Absolutely. We
appreciate your prayers
00:32:52.01\00:32:53.54
and we appreciate
your financial support
00:32:53.57\00:32:55.25
so we are gonna ask you
as we are coming towards
00:32:55.28\00:32:57.68
end of this year to
really consider 3ABN,
00:32:57.71\00:33:00.26
if you are not a
monthly donor please consider
00:33:00.29\00:33:02.95
being one. And we are
not asking for anything huge
00:33:02.98\00:33:05.44
that you can't do,
you pray and ask the Lord
00:33:05.47\00:33:07.44
what he would have you to do,
00:33:07.47\00:33:09.02
but if these programs
our blessing to you know
00:33:09.05\00:33:11.57
everyone you don't
have to love everybody on it
00:33:11.60\00:33:13.66
you don't have love
every pastor every singer
00:33:13.69\00:33:16.07
because I mean, if
that's the case when this world
00:33:16.10\00:33:18.84
be a mess, if we had
only supported those who
00:33:18.87\00:33:21.47
would in a same way
the Mormon Church I am not
00:33:21.50\00:33:23.99
saying that I
supported every pastor,
00:33:24.02\00:33:26.08
however habitus still
paying the ties you know
00:33:26.11\00:33:28.41
still pay my offerings and
not the same that I support
00:33:28.44\00:33:31.31
everything that
somebody does who works for the
00:33:31.34\00:33:33.64
Church, but I am saying
in general 3ABN is giving
00:33:33.67\00:33:37.52
the 3 angels
messages to the world and
00:33:37.55\00:33:39.90
if you support that
we appreciate you giving
00:33:39.93\00:33:42.63
support financially to
3ABN it's Tax Deductible
00:33:42.66\00:33:46.03
of gift, where non
501c3, a nonprofit charitable
00:33:46.06\00:33:49.92
organization and when
you give whatever you give
00:33:49.95\00:33:53.39
is tax deductible and
so we put in address up
00:33:53.42\00:33:56.73
a little later on
in this program if you
00:33:56.76\00:33:58.77
don't have it. Lot of
times during the day you will
00:33:58.80\00:34:01.10
see come up, but if you
need it. So I am gonna ask
00:34:01.13\00:34:03.19
you to really think
about this and pray about
00:34:03.22\00:34:06.02
what it is God would
have you do some of you
00:34:06.05\00:34:08.36
over the years gem
people have given things
00:34:08.75\00:34:11.54
where they have said
well investment I am gonna
00:34:11.57\00:34:13.82
do such and such
you not had people from
00:34:13.85\00:34:16.26
raising gardens.
Remember Charley Clarks several
00:34:16.29\00:34:19.00
years to go had some
property when he was in
00:34:19.03\00:34:20.76
Nebraska that it just
wouldn't grow anything
00:34:20.79\00:34:23.99
and just was poor he
tried to grow popcorn
00:34:24.02\00:34:26.19
and didn't work so
he said Lord I'll put
00:34:26.22\00:34:28.17
some popcorn if you
blessed out I'll give
00:34:28.20\00:34:30.71
it to 3abn. He send
thousands and thousands
00:34:30.74\00:34:33.70
of dollars he said this
property is put on to most
00:34:33.73\00:34:36.36
the best corn I think
he sells it I don't want
00:34:36.39\00:34:38.34
to give the wrong name but
like a pop writer something.
00:34:38.37\00:34:40.44
Yeah. And it was
selling in I have seen that
00:34:40.47\00:34:43.00
and you have to
you guys well seen it.
00:34:43.03\00:34:44.63
The Church is not only
3ABN, but people giving
00:34:44.66\00:34:47.88
one guy actually said,
I told the Lord I am gonna
00:34:48.42\00:34:51.06
every bit of money I saved on
00:34:51.09\00:34:52.92
razor blade that I
am gonna give to when
00:34:52.95\00:34:55.60
I should buy new
razor blades and he said
00:34:55.63\00:34:58.38
I have been using for
just like 6 months same
00:34:58.41\00:35:00.65
razor blade and here
is like $33 I have figured
00:35:00.68\00:35:03.97
out I was spent on
razor blade so I am gonna
00:35:04.00\00:35:06.38
ask you to think
about investments and again
00:35:06.41\00:35:08.27
what is this you are
have your hand that you can do
00:35:08.30\00:35:10.92
to support we have
our donations department
00:35:10.95\00:35:13.05
some of you been incredible
for what you have done
00:35:13.08\00:35:15.56
and what you giving
it's without those kind
00:35:15.59\00:35:17.56
of giving I really don't
know where the 3ABN would be.
00:35:17.59\00:35:20.69
3ABN is been on 26
years there is no guarantee
00:35:20.72\00:35:23.60
that it will ever stay on
I am not giving you a down,
00:35:23.63\00:35:26.37
down, you know, try to be
negative and I am positive
00:35:26.40\00:35:28.83
the Lord is gonna
bless and as long as
00:35:28.86\00:35:31.09
we are faithful
he is gonna honor it.
00:35:31.12\00:35:32.54
Amen. But he is
gonna honor it through
00:35:32.57\00:35:34.24
his people. Yeah. And
if you support the message
00:35:34.27\00:35:37.12
of 3ABN support what
still and we're asking you
00:35:37.15\00:35:40.04
to really think about
giving a monthly gift.
00:35:40.07\00:35:42.62
The smaller donations,
is what's keeping 3ABN
00:35:42.94\00:35:45.86
the flow right
now. That's right.
00:35:46.26\00:35:47.68
And years ago, when we
started. Yeah. Years ago
00:35:47.71\00:35:50.54
when we started we had
several people who really
00:35:50.57\00:35:52.64
believed and we were
given bigger donations,
00:35:52.67\00:35:54.44
but we always knew
eventually that will
00:35:54.72\00:35:57.29
fissile out, things
change, people change,
00:35:57.32\00:35:59.64
what have you. So the
more that we build a donor
00:35:59.67\00:36:03.14
base is smaller, your
10 dollars, 20 dollars
00:36:03.17\00:36:05.84
50 dollars, 100
dollars a month that's coming
00:36:05.87\00:36:08.37
in consistent it
gives us the your support
00:36:08.40\00:36:12.65
of knowing you
want us continue to grow
00:36:12.68\00:36:14.50
now we built a number
of networks, for instance,
00:36:14.53\00:36:16.65
as you know, the
regular 3ABN we have routine
00:36:16.68\00:36:19.18
on the proclaim and the
sunbeam in on the Russian
00:36:19.21\00:36:21.88
and now we voted is
board dare to dream network,
00:36:21.91\00:36:25.31
a new for minority channel
to go into the urban cities
00:36:25.34\00:36:28.86
of the world now
from the Board standpoint
00:36:28.89\00:36:31.34
this is the worst time
in the world and you Jim
00:36:31.37\00:36:33.75
as president. Yeah.
This would be the worst time
00:36:33.78\00:36:36.02
in the world, to
talk about building
00:36:36.05\00:36:37.60
another network to
reach and meet the needs
00:36:38.02\00:36:41.46
of people no matter
how good it is in the urban
00:36:41.49\00:36:44.40
communities because
this gonna be, I mean,
00:36:44.43\00:36:45.98
we use a lot of
program we have, but is gonna
00:36:46.01\00:36:48.19
be new
programming it's gonna be more
00:36:48.22\00:36:50.59
organizations some
more money, but you know
00:36:50.62\00:36:53.19
what and I think, we
know you agree with this
00:36:53.22\00:36:55.99
I wouldn't be
out here saying it.
00:36:56.02\00:36:57.51
But I have talked
to Jim already and CA
00:36:57.54\00:36:59.85
we can't let this hold
us back when God opens doors
00:36:59.88\00:37:02.90
going forward so, this is
a time that we have to get,
00:37:02.93\00:37:05.50
what we call step out
in faith, so Jim is already
00:37:05.85\00:37:08.84
set start working
on it and therefore Dr.
00:37:08.87\00:37:10.78
Yvonne Louis gonna
pointed her as a volunteer
00:37:10.81\00:37:14.03
there is no money
really to pay her.
00:37:14.06\00:37:15.77
So, she has a
burden for this network, CA
00:37:15.80\00:37:18.94
you known him for so
many 25 years, you Baptized
00:37:18.97\00:37:21.25
for 25 years ago.
So we actually got her
00:37:21.28\00:37:23.88
she said I will volunteer
I will do whatever I need
00:37:23.91\00:37:26.24
to do so we are putting
this organization together
00:37:26.27\00:37:28.71
some people would
say in the physical sense
00:37:28.74\00:37:31.15
why are you doing
this. Why don't you wait
00:37:31.18\00:37:33.97
and take care
what you got and do it.
00:37:34.00\00:37:36.19
No because there is a
need and Jesus said go
00:37:36.43\00:37:39.00
yee into all the
world he says asking me
00:37:39.03\00:37:41.70
and sounds to a I
will give the heathen for
00:37:41.73\00:37:43.64
thine inheritance, and
the utmost parts of the earth
00:37:43.67\00:37:45.79
for that possessions
there while we are reaching
00:37:45.82\00:37:48.23
11 satellites or so
around the world there are areas
00:37:48.26\00:37:51.36
right here in America
that have millions of people
00:37:51.39\00:37:53.63
that are not getting
the 3 Angels messages
00:37:53.66\00:37:56.24
they are not getting
programming that's gonna
00:37:56.27\00:37:58.48
help them physically,
mentally, and spiritually
00:37:58.51\00:38:00.74
and we can do it. We
are there to dream network
00:38:00.77\00:38:03.24
and so we call up that
because it's particularly
00:38:03.27\00:38:06.64
centered to minorities
who may be have never dare
00:38:06.67\00:38:09.40
to dream they can
become a President of the
00:38:09.43\00:38:11.99
United States that
they can become a physician
00:38:12.02\00:38:14.42
or lawyer or a scientist
and we want to bring in
00:38:14.45\00:38:17.15
and help educate do
programs on parenting,
00:38:17.18\00:38:20.11
do on financing,
do programs on drugs,
00:38:20.14\00:38:24.15
and alcohol all of
these types of things so,
00:38:24.18\00:38:25.96
right now rather than
to say no, we can't do
00:38:26.30\00:38:30.24
anymore we're
waiting I appreciate Jim
00:38:30.27\00:38:33.26
your willingness to
step out and CA all of the
00:38:33.29\00:38:35.81
saying and the
board, let's step out
00:38:35.84\00:38:38.65
and do something
because when we go forward
00:38:38.68\00:38:40.98
we are gonna trust
that God gonna be bless us.
00:38:41.01\00:38:43.14
You know Danny
these, these are the most
00:38:43.61\00:38:46.06
difficult financial
times since I have been alive
00:38:46.09\00:38:51.15
and since you have been
alive. At first it look like
00:38:51.92\00:38:55.89
this might be
passing right away it hasn't
00:38:56.40\00:38:59.22
the financial problems
and when you start to look
00:38:59.25\00:39:03.28
at them I had some
figures the other day that
00:39:03.31\00:39:07.00
I saw and were are
dead as a nation is going
00:39:07.03\00:39:11.02
and that affects each a
person individually so it is
00:39:11.05\00:39:14.80
a difficult time for
ministries one of the best
00:39:14.83\00:39:18.82
known ministries it's
not part of our Church
00:39:18.85\00:39:23.67
it is an another
denomination just this
00:39:23.70\00:39:27.33
week when the best
known ministries in all
00:39:27.36\00:39:30.15
over America filed
bankruptcy in California
00:39:30.18\00:39:33.57
and our prayers go out
to them we have absolutely
00:39:34.47\00:39:41.43
so many opportunities
and yet as you said we're,
00:39:42.75\00:39:47.86
we're the lowest point
financially we have been,
00:39:48.22\00:39:51.19
since I have been here,
and you tell me that's the
00:39:51.22\00:39:53.68
lowest point that we
had in many, many years.
00:39:53.71\00:39:56.19
Oh yeah no doubt
about it but we believe.
00:39:56.22\00:39:59.56
That's right. As we go
to Gods peoples and let the
00:39:59.59\00:40:02.39
folk know then it's up
to you. Oh, we have to let
00:40:02.42\00:40:04.96
him know. We are not
saying here is a campaign
00:40:04.99\00:40:06.97
we are putting this
thing. No. Behind this.
00:40:07.00\00:40:08.40
And we are gonna
do all of this. No.
00:40:08.43\00:40:10.09
And have praise the Satan
00:40:10.12\00:40:11.09
what I call beg
Satan, but I think it is okay
00:40:11.10\00:40:13.97
to let you know
what the needs are 3ABN
00:40:14.00\00:40:17.35
doesn't we never were
called just to maintain.
00:40:17.38\00:40:20.30
No. We are call to
be movers and shakers
00:40:20.33\00:40:22.56
all of us as
Christian and so we cannot do it
00:40:22.59\00:40:26.01
of course without our
support, so we want you to
00:40:26.04\00:40:28.25
catch the vision of
all the opportunities that
00:40:28.28\00:40:31.26
we have a reaching
so many people and then,
00:40:31.29\00:40:34.66
then literally going
forward and going forward
00:40:34.69\00:40:38.38
and if I could talk about
and I won't right now, but
00:40:38.41\00:40:41.38
the amount of money
the people may care verses
00:40:41.41\00:40:45.00
if we were in secular
businesses is amazing.
00:40:45.03\00:40:48.23
It is. Yours for instance,
we did it due diligence
00:40:48.26\00:40:50.70
just to see what you are
being paid versus someone
00:40:50.73\00:40:53.23
and what the
government would allow even
00:40:53.82\00:40:55.84
then a non-profit
for an organization
00:40:55.87\00:40:58.02
this size you are
making $200,000 less.
00:40:58.05\00:41:00.85
Yeah, right.
00:41:00.88\00:41:02.03
Then what
somebody could make. Yeah.
00:41:02.06\00:41:04.19
so literally, you
know, there are people
00:41:04.22\00:41:06.93
the salaries here so
all of that if you look
00:41:06.96\00:41:10.58
and so I don't want to
go into all of that today,
00:41:10.61\00:41:12.39
I am just saying thank
you for your love and your
00:41:12.42\00:41:14.96
yes, absolutely.
00:41:14.99\00:41:16.50
financial support to
this ministry because
00:41:16.53\00:41:18.39
there is no way
we want to maintain,
00:41:18.42\00:41:20.22
we want to continue to
go forward and by faith
00:41:20.58\00:41:23.43
as we step into
the water we think God
00:41:23.75\00:41:25.95
would honor. But we
are asking you to do
00:41:25.98\00:41:27.76
if you are not a
monthly donor, may be you could
00:41:27.79\00:41:30.57
become one, may
be you have something
00:41:30.60\00:41:32.40
in your hand, what is
this you have in your hand
00:41:32.43\00:41:34.33
that you let's say, you
know, I don't have a use
00:41:34.36\00:41:36.48
for this, I donate it
to 3ABN, may be you are
00:41:36.51\00:41:39.60
one of those who
many have hundreds
00:41:39.63\00:41:41.57
and hundreds of you
contacting Leonard Westfall,
00:41:41.60\00:41:44.94
and putting in wills
and trusts, revocable,
00:41:44.97\00:41:47.60
irrevocable charitable
gift annuities, wills whatever
00:41:47.63\00:41:51.40
and that's been a
great blessing to people.
00:41:51.43\00:41:53.32
None of us who
gonna live forever,
00:41:53.67\00:41:55.03
so the loyalty,
we are all gonna die,
00:41:55.06\00:41:57.04
so we do need to make
preparations and plans
00:41:57.07\00:41:59.59
for what's gonna
happen to its when we die.
00:41:59.62\00:42:01.11
And so again I
am going to talking,
00:42:01.14\00:42:03.52
we don't do this very often.
00:42:03.55\00:42:04.62
No we don't. Call
it straight talk or
00:42:04.65\00:42:06.16
whatever you want, we
believe that if you want
00:42:06.19\00:42:09.57
to see the total picture,
it's a great one, we win,
00:42:09.60\00:42:12.25
God's people win. Amen.
00:42:12.28\00:42:14.29
Jesus is coming back
for a victorious bride,
00:42:14.32\00:42:16.71
victorious church, but
I think what Jim as you
00:42:16.74\00:42:19.56
were saying the low
is financially, I mean
00:42:19.59\00:42:22.27
financial time around the world.
00:42:22.30\00:42:24.95
Oh they are, they
are. Not only in America
00:42:24.98\00:42:25.95
but around the world. Right.
00:42:25.96\00:42:27.01
There is also a wakeup
call, the Christians you
00:42:27.04\00:42:29.98
know what
everything here is temporary.
00:42:30.01\00:42:31.94
Yes. My dad used to say that son
00:42:31.97\00:42:33.29
get a quick look
around everything here is
00:42:33.32\00:42:35.35
temporary, everything
that is beautiful home
00:42:35.38\00:42:37.79
you know that's
gonna burn someday our
00:42:37.82\00:42:39.62
home is gonna burn
when Jesus comes. So
00:42:39.65\00:42:41.36
don't look at new
home, you know look at and
00:42:41.39\00:42:44.02
so he would help us
keep there so what I
00:42:44.05\00:42:46.14
would like to do, I
think this is a time for people
00:42:46.17\00:42:48.60
to focus. Yeah.
00:42:48.63\00:42:49.71
You know hey everything I've got
00:42:49.74\00:42:51.25
could crumble. Yes.
And may be what I've got
00:42:51.28\00:42:53.47
is God's I need to
start doing my part, the Lord
00:42:53.50\00:42:55.95
has said you know
for us to give certain
00:42:55.98\00:42:58.34
amount to him, and so
what is it that I can do
00:42:58.37\00:43:01.61
to help hasten
coming of the Lord. So
00:43:01.64\00:43:04.45
that this Gospel can
get into all the world,
00:43:04.48\00:43:06.98
Jesus can come back
and then we can all go
00:43:07.01\00:43:08.83
home. Amen. And
really working together.
00:43:08.86\00:43:10.95
You know Danny,
Brian Hamilton who is
00:43:10.98\00:43:14.78
our treasurer in Iowa
in my office this morning
00:43:14.81\00:43:17.96
on her knees praying,
and asking God for help
00:43:17.99\00:43:21.54
be honest with you.
And when we got up we
00:43:21.57\00:43:24.72
said to each other
how is that Danny can
00:43:24.75\00:43:28.48
remain so calm in
these difficult times, and I
00:43:28.51\00:43:33.64
said to Brian
you know 25 years he
00:43:33.67\00:43:37.47
started out with
absolutely nothing this
00:43:37.50\00:43:39.22
has been God's thing
all along, and he has
00:43:39.25\00:43:43.51
always said Lord will
go forward as the funds
00:43:43.54\00:43:46.95
are here. But
tell us some of those
00:43:46.98\00:43:49.29
experiences you've
had twenty five years of
00:43:49.32\00:43:51.98
this, and you have
never, the Lord has
00:43:52.01\00:43:53.80
never failed has he.
Well one thing I have
00:43:53.83\00:43:56.48
been able to do and I
say this with all do we
00:43:56.51\00:43:58.36
respect to God, Lord
we can only do our part,
00:43:58.39\00:44:00.63
you have to do the
rest. Yeah, that's right.
00:44:00.66\00:44:02.67
And basically we can
only do so much, so we
00:44:02.70\00:44:05.93
are not gonna go
out, we are not gonna do
00:44:05.96\00:44:07.50
all these things, and
we shouldn't have to fight
00:44:07.53\00:44:09.88
it. If this is really
you and we are doing what
00:44:09.91\00:44:11.88
you ask us to do, we
are asking you to honor that
00:44:11.91\00:44:15.17
into blessing,
God always has, but I
00:44:15.20\00:44:17.14
remember times,
one time we were ninety
00:44:17.17\00:44:19.37
thousand dollar
short, and it was time to pay
00:44:19.40\00:44:22.65
our satellite bill,
last day we had to pay it or
00:44:22.68\00:44:25.32
we were gonna go
off, we only had may be
00:44:25.35\00:44:27.61
three or four satellites
at that time go off from
00:44:27.64\00:44:30.23
main satellites,
needed ninety thousand, I said
00:44:30.26\00:44:33.43
to I think was
Marley whomever there. Oh
00:44:33.46\00:44:37.13
don't worry about I was
gonna do an interview, I
00:44:37.16\00:44:39.42
said don't worry about
that the mail will come,
00:44:39.45\00:44:40.83
and Marley will get
the mail pretty soon
00:44:40.86\00:44:42.63
that will be ninety
thousand because God
00:44:42.66\00:44:44.41
has never failed us,
we have never had to shut
00:44:44.44\00:44:46.74
off one satellite. We
literally needed ninety
00:44:46.77\00:44:49.50
thousand dollars
plus other money to keep
00:44:49.53\00:44:51.66
going, but we were
ninety thousand short.
00:44:51.69\00:44:54.20
So they said well
okay so I come and do the
00:44:54.23\00:44:57.84
program get out and go
the mail is there and I
00:44:57.87\00:45:00.49
say did we get to
ninety thousand, no its not
00:45:00.52\00:45:02.90
here. I said what, they
said no its not here, it
00:45:02.93\00:45:05.69
was less than ten
thousand dollars. So
00:45:05.72\00:45:08.10
that's the first time
I had come face to face
00:45:08.13\00:45:10.73
the afternoon we
are gonna have to wire
00:45:10.76\00:45:13.02
ninety thousand
dollars, didn't have it the
00:45:13.05\00:45:16.53
money, didn't know
what to do, so I said
00:45:16.56\00:45:18.42
there was something not
right about this because I
00:45:18.45\00:45:20.67
know if we are
doing God called us to do
00:45:20.70\00:45:22.65
somehow he will
come through and he will
00:45:22.68\00:45:25.34
make these payments.
So as I look to the stack
00:45:25.37\00:45:27.95
of mail that they
had been going through,
00:45:27.98\00:45:29.62
there was a smaller
stack that was for me
00:45:29.65\00:45:32.18
individually that
people want put personal or
00:45:32.21\00:45:35.53
what have you, I saw
one that had a little
00:45:35.56\00:45:37.39
green things around it
was a certified mail. So
00:45:37.42\00:45:40.53
I said what's that,
they said it was certified
00:45:40.56\00:45:42.61
mail to you, and I
said oh well lets open. I
00:45:42.64\00:45:45.53
opened it up with
my hand up, there was a
00:45:45.56\00:45:47.32
check for ninety
thousand dollars.
00:45:47.35\00:45:48.98
Someone had written,
they had overnighted it
00:45:49.01\00:45:51.21
through certified
mail and said Lord
00:45:51.24\00:45:54.13
impressed us the
urgency in which you
00:45:54.16\00:45:56.21
need this money. And
I mean you talk about
00:45:56.24\00:45:58.97
breath relief, but I
said Lord you are on time,
00:45:59.00\00:46:03.12
they say you are never
late, but that's about as
00:46:03.15\00:46:04.90
close as it is, I
like to see be late.
00:46:04.93\00:46:08.05
Once you glad you
opened that letter
00:46:08.08\00:46:09.53
because I have seen
you not open some of those
00:46:09.56\00:46:11.46
letters for several
days. I know, I know that's
00:46:11.49\00:46:14.65
true. Marley is the one that
00:46:14.68\00:46:18.36
would tell about
it. Yeah, yeah but you
00:46:18.39\00:46:21.34
know that has
happened over and over
00:46:21.37\00:46:23.98
again. I remember
that we put two hundred and
00:46:24.01\00:46:27.24
fifty thousand
dollars into Romania, right
00:46:27.27\00:46:29.12
after Romania
failed, their communism
00:46:29.15\00:46:31.50
failed, and so we
wanted to go over there
00:46:31.53\00:46:34.06
and build production
center, that's where we
00:46:34.09\00:46:36.68
met Joseph Paul Hagey
who is still with us here
00:46:36.71\00:46:38.72
today one of our
directors. Right.
00:46:38.75\00:46:40.29
And Gonzalo Santos we
went there, we put two
00:46:40.32\00:46:43.19
hundred and fifty
thousand, we got right
00:46:43.22\00:46:44.84
to the end of the year
and our accountant said
00:46:44.87\00:46:48.24
to us he realized
that unless something big
00:46:48.27\00:46:51.37
happens we are
gonna be about two hundred
00:46:51.40\00:46:52.95
and fifty thousand
dollars short at the end
00:46:52.98\00:46:55.05
of the year. And I
said oh no first thought in
00:46:55.08\00:46:58.20
my mind, if we
hadn't put all that money in
00:46:58.23\00:47:00.15
Romania, but I'd
read a statement, and I
00:47:00.18\00:47:02.42
don't know if you
guys know what it is we can
00:47:02.45\00:47:04.35
look it up later. I
read a statement from Ellen
00:47:04.38\00:47:06.47
White not long before
that where she said that
00:47:06.50\00:47:09.70
when we give to the
basic, I am going to
00:47:09.73\00:47:12.08
paraphrase third
world countries God will
00:47:12.11\00:47:14.40
honor us here at
home, and so I said no I see
00:47:14.43\00:47:17.85
the work is
happening over there, I know we
00:47:17.88\00:47:20.01
should have done it, we
will stick with it then I
00:47:20.04\00:47:22.44
had a man call me, he
had listened to my uncle
00:47:22.47\00:47:24.42
Olen saying life is a
like a mountain road, and
00:47:24.45\00:47:28.39
called me is a doctor
from Washington State,
00:47:28.42\00:47:32.84
I don't think may be
he has given his name Dr.
00:47:32.87\00:47:34.73
Bob Ford, didn't
know Bob, knew nothing
00:47:34.76\00:47:37.16
about him, and he
said I was watching your
00:47:37.19\00:47:39.03
program the Lord
impressed me I should
00:47:39.06\00:47:40.57
give some money, what
are your needs. I went
00:47:40.60\00:47:42.80
about to tell him
that we needed two hundred
00:47:42.83\00:47:44.94
and fifty thousand
dollars that might scare
00:47:44.97\00:47:46.72
somebody off, and I
really don't know what
00:47:46.75\00:47:49.07
our needs are,
sometimes we think we
00:47:49.10\00:47:50.57
do. So I just said to him well
I tell you what I will do, I
00:47:50.60\00:47:53.24
will pray with you
since the Lord has impressed
00:47:53.27\00:47:55.57
you to donate and
because he said I see that this
00:47:55.60\00:47:58.57
is network where
people can come from the plow.
00:47:58.60\00:48:00.68
Yeah. You know and
prophecies be fulfilled
00:48:00.71\00:48:03.24
and we can reach, so
I want to support. So I
00:48:03.27\00:48:05.80
said I'll pray with
you and you decide and
00:48:05.83\00:48:08.83
when Lord tells
you, you call me back.
00:48:08.86\00:48:10.74
Monday morning or so
he called me back said
00:48:10.77\00:48:13.21
Danny, he never
called himself doctor
00:48:13.24\00:48:15.84
but Bob Ford, and he
said Lord has impressed
00:48:15.87\00:48:18.50
me to give you
certain amount. And I said oh
00:48:18.53\00:48:20.89
great and he says but
don't you want to know
00:48:20.92\00:48:22.69
how much. And I said
well I was dying to I
00:48:22.72\00:48:25.41
just don't want to ask.
He said I just sent you a
00:48:25.44\00:48:27.53
check today for
two hundred and fifty
00:48:27.56\00:48:28.90
thousand dollars.
It's exactly what we needed
00:48:28.93\00:48:31.67
to get out of that
hole so to speak, so I have
00:48:31.70\00:48:34.01
seen it happen time
and time again. Yeah.
00:48:34.04\00:48:36.59
Few years ago we
were at academy there in
00:48:36.62\00:48:40.46
Florida, you help
me with the name Force
00:48:40.49\00:48:44.95
Lake Academy, thank
you, the gymnasium we
00:48:44.98\00:48:48.63
were down towards the
end of the year, I just
00:48:48.66\00:48:50.65
mentioned on the
program we are around
00:48:50.68\00:48:53.36
please pray for
us, we are around seven
00:48:53.39\00:48:55.30
hundred and fifty
thousand dollars down.
00:48:55.33\00:48:57.37
After that program few
days later I got a call
00:48:57.40\00:49:00.31
from a lady went out
to California they gave us
00:49:00.34\00:49:03.61
eight hundred thousand
dollars. She said I saw
00:49:03.64\00:49:06.18
you on the other
night on the live program,
00:49:06.21\00:49:09.39
and we are sure 3ABN
is, she is older this is
00:49:09.42\00:49:12.76
my life everyday, we
want to support 3ABN,
00:49:12.79\00:49:17.19
I had this resource I
want to give it to you,
00:49:17.22\00:49:19.94
so I have seen it
over and over and over
00:49:19.97\00:49:22.45
again, sometimes
there are smaller amounts.
00:49:22.48\00:49:24.34
Right now we
need some huge amounts
00:49:24.37\00:49:26.26
really for all of the
things we are doing, but
00:49:26.29\00:49:28.97
I have confidence that
I believe that we've done
00:49:29.00\00:49:31.58
our part we have
been as good as Jim, I am
00:49:31.61\00:49:33.98
saying this not
braggingly not, I am not
00:49:34.01\00:49:37.32
you know I am gonna
be straight up with this.
00:49:37.35\00:49:40.65
He is a better
businessman than I am.
00:49:40.68\00:49:42.51
No. Yeah, he is Jim
Gilley. I am warrior.
00:49:42.54\00:49:45.16
No, you are a
better businessman.
00:49:45.19\00:49:46.92
You have the
faith and I'm warrior.
00:49:46.95\00:49:48.33
I want you to be
right exactly where you are
00:49:48.36\00:49:49.87
because you have a
great business sense
00:49:49.90\00:49:52.42
about you and better
than I have, I just kind
00:49:52.45\00:49:55.47
fly about the sea of
the pets. Now thankfully we
00:49:55.50\00:49:58.08
always had good
accountants, we have
00:49:58.11\00:49:59.57
outside auditors,
and when we were looked
00:49:59.60\00:50:03.01
up by the internal
revenue service two
00:50:03.04\00:50:04.82
three years ago, we
didn't know one dime.
00:50:04.85\00:50:06.87
One sanction.
Everything is spend,
00:50:06.90\00:50:08.60
what I mean by
better businessman, you are
00:50:08.63\00:50:10.32
better planner, and
you look, and you plan and
00:50:10.35\00:50:12.60
you organize better
than I do, and I am thankful
00:50:12.63\00:50:15.10
for that. And so I
realize right now that
00:50:15.13\00:50:18.15
we are in a time
that you are in a tough
00:50:18.18\00:50:19.91
position to do
planning and to go forward
00:50:19.94\00:50:22.59
because right now we
are just trying to make
00:50:22.62\00:50:24.92
sure we pay the
bills. Yeah. How do we go
00:50:24.95\00:50:26.73
forward, so I am
asking the folks at home and I
00:50:26.76\00:50:29.42
don't know if have
ever done this in these many
00:50:29.45\00:50:31.34
years, and you didn't
ask me to do like this,
00:50:31.37\00:50:33.37
but I am just with
your permission that I am
00:50:33.40\00:50:36.01
praying because I'm
the part of it, you at home
00:50:36.04\00:50:38.65
are part of it to
really ask the Lord what
00:50:38.68\00:50:42.10
would you have me
to me, I am going to do
00:50:42.13\00:50:43.32
something special for
3ABN that I have never
00:50:43.35\00:50:45.80
done before, and as
you pray and you ask the
00:50:45.83\00:50:48.35
Holy Spirit, you might
be surprised what is it
00:50:48.38\00:50:50.89
you have in your
hand that you didn't know
00:50:50.92\00:50:52.91
that now can become
valuable for the Lords
00:50:52.94\00:50:56.27
word because the
end result is all we are
00:50:56.30\00:50:58.77
trying to do is do what
Jesus said go around the
00:50:58.80\00:51:01.45
all the world, teach
all nations baptize them in
00:51:01.48\00:51:03.75
the name of the
Father, the son, and the Holy
00:51:03.78\00:51:05.69
Spirit. That's really
all what we are trying to
00:51:05.72\00:51:07.68
do. We have to keep in
mind Matthew 28:18, Jesus says
00:51:07.71\00:51:10.85
"All power is given
unto me in heaven and
00:51:10.88\00:51:13.29
in earth." He didn't
said some of it, all power
00:51:13.32\00:51:15.59
given me the very next
word is go, all power is
00:51:15.62\00:51:18.98
given me go. Now he
says no excuses you can
00:51:19.01\00:51:23.28
go, do what I tell
you to do because there is
00:51:23.31\00:51:25.54
nothing to negotiate,
all power is given to me
00:51:25.57\00:51:28.32
and I am the one who is
instructing you to do it.
00:51:28.35\00:51:30.27
So he didn't even put
a sentence in between, he
00:51:30.30\00:51:32.60
didn't put any periods
in between, basically he
00:51:32.63\00:51:35.41
just said go you
are therefore. So now we
00:51:35.44\00:51:38.39
know that if we
go forward God will
00:51:38.42\00:51:40.92
supply every need.
But it depends on each of
00:51:40.95\00:51:43.48
us, how much we are
willing to do. Right
00:51:43.51\00:51:45.72
now we all going
through something's
00:51:45.75\00:51:47.50
and financially as Jim
said this world is about
00:51:47.53\00:51:51.41
ready for big
shakeup but in someway its so
00:51:51.44\00:51:53.99
wonderful it tells us
that the end of the world is
00:51:54.02\00:51:56.97
coming very soon. Amen.
00:51:57.00\00:51:58.48
And eternal life is
gonna be is literally right to
00:51:58.51\00:52:01.17
brink, we are on
the brink of the second
00:52:01.20\00:52:02.49
coming. What I am
gonna do with what I
00:52:02.52\00:52:04.12
have may be you have
little, little as much
00:52:04.15\00:52:06.81
when God is in it. I
love that song little as much
00:52:06.84\00:52:09.54
when God is in it.
So we are asking you to
00:52:09.57\00:52:11.41
pray and ask the
Holy Spirit what he would
00:52:11.44\00:52:13.94
have you to do
in supporting 3ABN.
00:52:13.97\00:52:16.60
Yeah. Sorry I took so much time.
00:52:16.63\00:52:18.52
No, no this was,
this was something we just
00:52:18.55\00:52:21.18
need to share with
our family, with our 3ABN
00:52:21.21\00:52:24.70
family because this has
been one difficult times
00:52:24.73\00:52:30.08
since about June 1
and through this year, we
00:52:30.11\00:52:33.78
early on we were
really doing well, and
00:52:33.81\00:52:35.99
things were going real
well and all of a sudden
00:52:36.02\00:52:39.03
and its typical for
the summer, but we kind of
00:52:39.06\00:52:41.72
expected to pick
back up before now.
00:52:41.75\00:52:43.99
And I expect in a
few months we will get
00:52:44.02\00:52:46.33
some great praise
reports of how people
00:52:46.36\00:52:49.66
helped to do this and
to keep us going and how
00:52:49.69\00:52:52.51
financially God
blessed. The first year that I
00:52:52.54\00:52:55.43
came here we were
really facing some
00:52:55.46\00:52:57.48
financial things, and
we sat down and we said to
00:52:57.51\00:53:00.61
the people we need
three million dollars
00:53:00.64\00:53:03.61
before the end of
the year, and the Lord
00:53:03.64\00:53:07.28
blessed with three
million dollars from
00:53:07.31\00:53:09.82
these people.
Incredible. And you know we were
00:53:09.85\00:53:11.29
right back almost in
that same position where we
00:53:11.32\00:53:15.05
need, I was going
over with Brian, we need
00:53:15.08\00:53:17.65
three million
dollars between now and the
00:53:17.68\00:53:19.78
end of the year.
Three million we will make,
00:53:19.81\00:53:22.90
we were in the year
and we were in the year and
00:53:22.93\00:53:26.26
the black we need
more if we are gonna do
00:53:26.29\00:53:30.04
some of these
projects we wanted to do, but
00:53:30.07\00:53:32.06
we are just praying
that God will hear and we
00:53:32.09\00:53:35.48
believe he will.
Well it sounds like a
00:53:35.51\00:53:36.97
great amount of
money and it is when you
00:53:37.00\00:53:39.16
potentially hundreds
of thousands and even
00:53:39.19\00:53:41.12
millions of people
viewing, but hundreds
00:53:41.15\00:53:43.37
of thousands who
inspires the same
00:53:43.40\00:53:45.28
theology that we do
have the same goal, it
00:53:45.31\00:53:48.91
doesn't take very much. No.
00:53:48.94\00:53:50.33
To bring in that kind
of money, but again we
00:53:50.36\00:53:53.43
could, we haven't
talked about laying off.
00:53:53.46\00:53:55.38
Jim hasn't laid off
a bunch of people, we
00:53:55.41\00:53:57.43
haven't shut down
the satellite, we haven't
00:53:57.46\00:53:59.70
done it because we
believe God wants us to
00:53:59.73\00:54:01.81
it's time to go. Right.
00:54:01.84\00:54:03.24
Not a time to
stop. That's right.
00:54:03.27\00:54:05.23
And so we believe in
the go, stop, you all
00:54:05.26\00:54:07.94
believe what you
want, but we believe Jesus
00:54:07.97\00:54:09.46
said go and he means
it, and by God's grace we
00:54:09.49\00:54:12.85
want to do on your
behalf is to continue to
00:54:12.88\00:54:15.50
take this Gospel the
kingdom into all the world
00:54:15.53\00:54:18.25
So pray about it. In
addition to those that
00:54:18.28\00:54:20.78
might be able to do something
00:54:20.81\00:54:22.12
extraordinary at this
time remember I wish I had
00:54:22.15\00:54:26.47
known before I
came here how much fifty
00:54:26.50\00:54:29.50
dollars a month
means, how much twenty five
00:54:29.53\00:54:32.14
dollars a month
means to this ministry,
00:54:32.17\00:54:34.42
hundred dollars a
month because as you have
00:54:34.45\00:54:37.09
said over and over
again these are the
00:54:37.12\00:54:39.19
bread and butter
gifts. It is. And this is what
00:54:39.22\00:54:42.33
keeps us on the air,
but this special time we are
00:54:42.36\00:54:45.88
just praying that
God will open the windows
00:54:45.91\00:54:47.75
of heaven. Amen.
Before we have a little
00:54:47.78\00:54:49.90
break Danny would you
pray again for us? I want
00:54:49.93\00:54:52.09
to. Meet these needs
at this time. I want to
00:54:52.12\00:54:55.77
Lord, I thank you
once again that we can come
00:54:55.80\00:54:57.98
before you, and I am
just asking a miracle
00:54:58.01\00:55:00.14
you are the creator
of God of the universe,
00:55:00.17\00:55:04.06
without you there
is nothing through
00:55:04.09\00:55:05.99
you we can
accomplish all things, you are
00:55:06.02\00:55:09.30
everything and
today we are laying before
00:55:09.33\00:55:11.47
you needs of this
ministry, and we just
00:55:11.50\00:55:14.15
pray that you will
bless abundantly more than
00:55:14.18\00:55:16.20
we could ever ask. I
thank to the people that
00:55:16.23\00:55:18.30
are watching,
that are viewing this
00:55:18.33\00:55:19.84
programming, some
may be taping it, they
00:55:19.87\00:55:22.20
may be sharing it,
they may want to go talk to
00:55:22.23\00:55:24.65
people that they
know from what they have
00:55:24.68\00:55:26.26
heard, but we are
praying for a miracle
00:55:26.29\00:55:28.77
one more time. We
have seen it over and
00:55:28.80\00:55:31.06
over through the
years. God we don't doubt
00:55:31.09\00:55:33.39
you, sometimes we
doubt ourselves because
00:55:33.42\00:55:36.07
we realized we are
failed human agents, we
00:55:36.10\00:55:38.30
loose our vision,
without the vision the
00:55:38.33\00:55:41.34
people perish. So
we realize that house
00:55:41.37\00:55:44.05
divided against self
cannot stand. Lord we
00:55:44.08\00:55:46.08
want to come
together in unity as those who
00:55:46.11\00:55:48.92
believe that in
the second coming, and
00:55:48.95\00:55:51.28
those who believe
in keeping the Seventh
00:55:51.31\00:55:53.56
Day Sabbath, those
who continue to believe in
00:55:53.59\00:55:56.57
getting the
undiluted three angels messages
00:55:56.60\00:55:58.85
to the world. Lord we
are asking for everyone
00:55:58.88\00:56:01.69
of this folks, and then
there are folks that are
00:56:01.72\00:56:03.41
Christians they
have no home church, they
00:56:03.44\00:56:05.59
watched 3ABN,
they support 3ABN, they
00:56:05.62\00:56:08.22
believe in what they
are seeing, may be you
00:56:08.25\00:56:10.46
would impress this
folk also where they could
00:56:10.49\00:56:13.42
send their
donations to help support this
00:56:13.45\00:56:15.86
ministry continue to
go. So once again we are
00:56:15.89\00:56:18.66
just here, we are
before you, we have been here
00:56:18.69\00:56:20.67
many times before, we
are on our knees asking
00:56:20.70\00:56:23.12
for your blessings,
your guidance, and want to
00:56:23.15\00:56:25.95
come back and give a
praise report of what
00:56:25.98\00:56:27.78
you have done for us
in Jesus name we pray.
00:56:27.81\00:56:31.14
Amen. Jim you know
we had talked about
00:56:31.17\00:56:35.29
giving some of the
results and some of the
00:56:35.32\00:56:37.41
votes of annual
council because it was such an
00:56:37.44\00:56:39.76
important meeting. Right.
00:56:39.79\00:56:41.04
But the tone was set
for that whole meeting by
00:56:41.07\00:56:44.00
the message that
that wasn't delivered that
00:56:44.03\00:56:46.60
very first Sabbath
that the meeting began. You
00:56:46.63\00:56:48.92
had a chance to hear,
I did not, but I do know
00:56:48.95\00:56:51.21
that by the time I
got there they were still
00:56:51.24\00:56:53.21
talking about that message.
00:56:53.24\00:56:54.93
Oh it was just a
fantastic message, and
00:56:54.96\00:56:57.76
you are going to have
the opportunity to listen
00:56:57.79\00:57:00.92
to it in its entirety
from the get go from the text
00:57:00.95\00:57:06.18
right down through to
the end. And CA it was
00:57:06.21\00:57:10.72
another bell ringer
from our President. This man
00:57:10.75\00:57:15.22
loves the Lord, he
wants to see this church
00:57:15.25\00:57:17.43
go forward, he wants
to be the kind of leader
00:57:17.46\00:57:20.41
that not only leads in
an administrative manner
00:57:20.44\00:57:23.59
but also leads us in
revival, and this is what
00:57:23.62\00:57:27.99
we must have. Yeah.
The spiritual leadership
00:57:28.02\00:57:31.68
and so we have made this
decision quickly actually
00:57:31.71\00:57:35.34
while we were been
right here on the set to
00:57:35.37\00:57:37.55
play that full message
to you, call your friends
00:57:37.58\00:57:40.77
tell them, they are
going to hear that full
00:57:40.80\00:57:42.99
message from the President of
00:57:43.02\00:57:44.28
General Conference.
00:57:44.31\00:57:45.49
