What you're seeing in the world. 62 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 2: Is that because we're all connected to screen time and 63 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 2: we talked about this before, is that the kids are 64 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 2: going through the same stuff Australia, Emmett or you be 65 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:07,239 Speaker 2: in Los Angeles right, same stuff, same issues, same problem 66 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 2: And what is it. It's a heart problem, right, and 67 00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 2: this is why Jesus told us to go out right, 68 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 2: And like, I like how you said that that a 69 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 2: lot of people they want to build these they want 70 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 2: to gimmick the churches, they want to build the churches. 71 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 2: You know, it's good for the church for them to 72 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 2: get disciples, but we got to go out and reach 73 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,639 Speaker 2: people where they're at because frankly, there's a lot of 74 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 2: people that just they're scared of church. Maybe it's church hurt, 75 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 2: or maybe they've never been to church and they're nervous 76 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 2: about going to church, or maybe they've seen people that 77 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 2: have misrepresented Christ to them outside of church. Right, So 78 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,839 Speaker 2: it's good to go out and meet people right where 79 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 2: they're at. And I've watched a lot of these videos 80 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 2: on YouTube recently where people were out doing a street evangelism. 81 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 2: And there's good street evangelism, and then there's bad street evangelism, right, 82 00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 2: And just to kind of queue up what you you know, 83 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 2: what we're going to talk about today about going out 84 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 2: and doing it right. I've been walking up the festivals 85 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 2: and I've seen there's a real story.

I was when I was in high school 99 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 2: and I preached the gospel and I told my testimony 100 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 2: and I invited people to pray for him. And then 101 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 2: one girl was like, I was leaving campus and I 102 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 2: heard something tell me to go inside to this event. 103 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,919 Speaker 2: And I walked inside and now here I am. You know, 104 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 2: gave my life to Jesus. Yeah, he said, she goes 105 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 2: I was actually leaving campus to go commit suicide. And 106 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,880 Speaker 2: then that just totally like cues up this whole thing 107 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:04,359 Speaker 2: and like me sharing my story with this artist or 108 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 2: this DJ or whoever, whoever it be. But with that said, 109 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 2: I was going to this music festival to see one 110 00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:14,920 Speaker 2: of my friends, and I witness and pray for people outside, 111 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 2: even in the crowds or in the parking lots, because 112 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 2: they're out there in the parking lots too. So just 113 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 2: wherever God leads me by his spirit, I just wait 114 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 2: for the door to open and start talking to people, 115 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 2: and then that normally turns into a conversation about about Jesus. 116 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 2: And it's not about just leading people the Lord right 117 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 2: there on the spot, because I don't like that either, Like, well, okay, 118 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 2: so I witness him, so and I got to lead 119 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,520 Speaker 2: in the Lord. Yes, that's my goal. But if the 120 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 2: spirit's like you're just gonna plant the siege right now, 121 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 2: so be it. But most of the time God opens 122 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 2: the door to lead him to the Lord. It just 123 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,880 Speaker 2: it's just divine pointments. But I don't want to force it. 124 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 2: If it's like there's times when it's like no, this 125 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 2: is forced, you know, yeah, but if God, you know, 126 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 2: sometimes I might just pray with people like, hey, well 127 00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 2: let me just pray for you that maybe God will 128 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,839 Speaker 2: reveal his planned to you, because they're hardhearted and they're like, no, no, 129 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 2: I'm not in a wellkn I just pray for you 130 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 2: that God will reveal himself as you as you walk 131 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 2: away from here. 132 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, we're just playing seeds, right, I mean, yes, what 133 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:11,040 Speaker 4: we're doing. 134 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 2: But then there's times that just they're just the harvest 135 00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 2: is ripe, and they're like, I want Jesus right. So 136 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 2: I was going to this music festival and I see 137 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 2: these signs repent, You're going to go to hell, you know, 138 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 2: God hates you basically all my stuff.

Well, 173 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 2: because there's stuff that's been happening in their childhood. Yeah, 174 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 2: you know why are you know why? To find out 175 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 2: the whys is, you got to have a conversation before 176 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 2: you start slapping hardcore versus over people's heads and pushing away, 177 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 2: like introduce him to Christ he came for s. 178 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 4: Well. 179 00:08:23,920 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 3: I think if you can build a relationship with someone 180 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 3: and you have a voice with them, then it makes 181 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 3: all the difference.

But I always 214 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 3: ask him that. On a scale from one to ten, 215 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 3: one is absolutely sure you're going to heaven or ec me, 216 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 3: ten's absolutely sure going to hell, or excuse me, ten 217 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 3: is absolutely you're going to heaven.

One is out of darkness because 220 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 3: that's their equivalent, right, oh, okay, And then I get 221 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 3: their radio, and if they rate themselves like eight or whatever, 222 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,319 Speaker 3: then I know they don't understand the gospel. Right If 223 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 3: they say ten, then I say, why ten, you know? 224 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:22,160 Speaker 3: And they because I'm a really good person, like nah, 225 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 3: Then I then I share the law with them, you know. 226 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,440 Speaker 3: But if they say, you know, eight or seven or one, 227 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 3: you know, then I know what I'm dealing with. 228 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,320 Speaker 2: Like, dude, that's an amazing that's I like that. And 229 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 2: you know what one thing I want to jump into 230 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 2: before I forget is that I like what your son said, 231 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 2: he missed he missed that moment, and he goes, God, 232 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 2: if you open up another door, I'll do it. Like 233 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 2: God is in the business of like He'll keep lining 234 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 2: you up right, like you can miss them. There's been 235 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 2: a lot of people that I've been wanting to witness too, 236 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:50,599 Speaker 2: or like I felt like God was leading to me, 237 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 2: and I just wasn't in the like, just wasn't into 238 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:55,839 Speaker 2: it for whatever reason. I tired or just missed a moment. 239 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 2: And then I was like God, after I'm my God, Okay, 240 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 2: do it again. And then he'll do it again. Yeah, 241 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 2: he'll do it. He'll open the door. But I love that. 242 00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 2: So one to ten and then yeah, you know what 243 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 2: you're really dealing with? Yeah, and then you could share 244 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 2: it from there, yeah, because sometimes. 245 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 3: You'll you'll talk to somebody like, oh, I'm Catholic or whatever, 246 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,199 Speaker 3: and so then you hit him with that question and 247 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 3: that kind of opens up the door to where they're 248 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:16,679 Speaker 3: at because if they think they're a good person, they're 249 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:17,440 Speaker 3: gonna say eight. 250 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 4: You know. 251 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 3: I had one guy tell me, well, some days I'm 252 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 3: a five and some days I'm an eight. 253 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:22,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's good. 254 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:25,000 Speaker 3: And so then I was like, you know, it's it's 255 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 3: ten or it's nothing, it's ten or it's zero. Right, 256 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,200 Speaker 3: you can't because it's not you, it's Jesus. It's what 257 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 3: Jesus did, and he's a ten. And so if I'm 258 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,080 Speaker 3: banking on Jesus and he's the one who saved me, 259 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:38,199 Speaker 3: then I can I can confidently say ten because I'm 260 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 3: not talking about myself, but any number below ten, you know, 261 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 3: you know that they need the Gospel. 262 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, totally. So how so how are you guys 263 00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 2: doing this? How are you guys doing ministry right now? 264 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 2: Because I see you guys are doing stuff overseas, right 265 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 2: and then you're doing stuff also right here in an Emmett, 266 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 2: which is your Jerusalem and outwardly. 267 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 3: So yeah, so every year we kind of set up things. 268 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:04,120 Speaker 3: You know, when I first started the church here twenty 269 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 3: five years almost twenty five years ago now, I went 270 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 3: to a pastor's conference in Marietta, and I was sitting 271 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 3: with a guy and he's like, what do you guys 272 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 3: do for outreach? And like that question burned in my 273 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 3: heart like we were already doing something. We were doing 274 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 3: an off site Easter service, and we were doing some 275 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:20,959 Speaker 3: things like that. But I was like, we really need 276 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 3: to think about, like what are we doing for outreach? 277 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 3: Because Jesus says go, He doesn't say just sit and 278 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 3: let everybody come to you, you know, I think that's 279 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 3: what happens. 280 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 2: So where is the model of the church in the Bible, 281 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 2: like the Book of Acts? You know, Yeah, I just 282 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 2: I want you to just break it down for people. Yeah. 283 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,320 Speaker 3: So you see in the early early Book of Acts, 284 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,719 Speaker 3: in Acts chapter two, of course, they continue steadfastly in 285 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 3: a policle doctrine and fellowship, breaking bread and prayer. 286 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 2: So ing, praying and reading the Word together. 287 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 3: Right, And that was and that's what the church was. 288 00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 3: It's the church, it's not that's not the outreach, you know. 289 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 3: And I think our in our society, it's kind of 290 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,120 Speaker 3: accepted that people are going to show up to church, 291 00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 3: you know, and so people do and every week we 292 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 3: have visitors that come in and because of that, I 293 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 3: share the gospel every week in my message. I'm teaching 294 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,200 Speaker 3: through the Word. But my primary job is to equip 295 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,160 Speaker 3: the saints, to get the people ready so they can 296 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 3: take the gospel to their friends, to you know, my 297 00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 3: son with his friend or you know, your neighbor, you 298 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 3: have them over for a barbecue, and you know, you 299 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:28,079 Speaker 3: op open up the opportunity for them to receive Jesus 300 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 3: or just to start talking to him about their soul. 301 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 2: And that's the thing that people say, I don't need church, 302 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 2: and I tell people, you go to church so you 303 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 2: can learn and be equipped to go out right that's 304 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 2: that's why we go to church. 305 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 3: Well, and I think that's why so many Christians listening. 306 00:13:42,520 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 3: I was watching the statistics and I think Idaho is 307 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 3: doing a lot better than this, but like nationwide, it's 308 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,600 Speaker 3: only like thirty percent of or something like that of 309 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 3: people actually go to church. They call themselves a Christian, 310 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 3: and I think the reason that that's true is because 311 00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 3: they just don't see the relevance. Like they're not being 312 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 3: equipped go to church. It's kind of a show. It's 313 00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 3: very short, it's kind of a ted talk. You know, 314 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,559 Speaker 3: they don't really get a you know, a solid Bible. 315 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 2: Or they're holding snakes in Oklahoma and they're. 316 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, but you know, I grew up in churches where 317 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 3: it was the gospel every Sunday, you know, and it 318 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 3: was like give your money, yeah, bring your friends, here's 319 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 3: the gospel. Yeah, and and and so you just didn't grow. 320 00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 3: You had no context to what you're learning. There's no 321 00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 3: Bible teaching. 322 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 2: So yeah, when you're saying the gospel, I'm just telling 323 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 2: this for the listeners he's talking about it's it's Jesus crucified. 324 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 2: It's the gospel of like Jesus death and resurrection, it's 325 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 2: evangelistic every week. You can't when you evangelize the church 326 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 2: every single week that there's no growth. You have to 327 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 2: go through this. You have to go through the scriptures. 328 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 2: You got to go through the books, because that's the 329 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,200 Speaker 2: whole discipleship is learning the Word of God, not just 330 00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 2: sticking in just like Jesus died for your sins, give 331 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,400 Speaker 2: all your money and you're gonna go to heaven. That's 332 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:57,840 Speaker 2: not what it's about. 333 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, or like a Ted talk, you know, like 334 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:03,240 Speaker 3: they're gonna and they talk about important things, felt needs. 335 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 3: You know, there would be a marriage study or they'll 336 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 3: do something on being joyful or whatever, but they don't 337 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 3: ever get into the meat of the word where people 338 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 3: can actually. 339 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 2: Grow be transformed. 340 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, And that's you know, that's that's important because 341 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 3: if people are being discipled, then they're and they're using that, 342 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,520 Speaker 3: then they're they're growing, and they're hungry, always hungry. Right, 343 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 3: If they're not using it and they're just sitting in 344 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 3: church and they're not doing something with it, they're not 345 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 3: sharing with their friends, they're not you know, teaching a 346 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 3: class in children's ministry or or doing something with what 347 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:38,160 Speaker 3: they're learning, then they just kind of become constipated spiritually, 348 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:39,960 Speaker 3: you know, and they and they get tired, they get 349 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,480 Speaker 3: they grow weary of the Word because they don't have 350 00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 3: an outlet for it. 351 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 4: Right. 352 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 3: So I think that you know the discipleship part of it, 353 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 3: where Jesus says, you command them to observe all things 354 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 3: I'm teaching. You know, it's not just coming and learning 355 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 3: the word, because you can get in that rut to. 356 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 2: Right that that's true. Observe all things. 357 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, so you're not just you're not just learning the Word, 358 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 3: but you're taking it and you're putting it into practice. 359 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 3: And that's where this deciple make disciples comes in, right, 360 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 3: because we don't just want people to come in and 361 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:13,600 Speaker 3: be saved, We want them to come in be transformed 362 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 3: by the gospel, which is Jesus died on the cross 363 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 3: for your sins. You know you were lost, your sinner. 364 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,080 Speaker 3: Jesus died for you, rose from the grave and gives 365 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 3: you eternal life. And now what are you going to 366 00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 3: do with this eternal life that God's given you? Are 367 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 3: you going to waste it or are you going to 368 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,120 Speaker 3: use it to bring more people to faith? Or are 369 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,040 Speaker 3: you going to use it to enrich people in their faith, 370 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 3: like teaching a class in children's ministry, leading a small group, 371 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 3: sharing the gospel with people. Excuse me, Yeah, to try 372 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 3: to get people to actually mobilize, you know, and the 373 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 3: more people that mobilize within a church, the more that 374 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 3: church will grow. You know, that's just proven. You know, 375 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,680 Speaker 3: like they say that for every person who's serving in 376 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 3: a church, four people come to watch, and so then 377 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 3: you give those four people jobs, and then for every 378 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 3: person who starts working in the church, the church just 379 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 3: exponentially grows because they're being served, right, and it's it's 380 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 3: just kind of a multiplication thing that happens within the church. 381 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:14,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you don't get active, then your church just 382 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 2: becomes like a routine. You have to have you have 383 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 2: to have activation. And that's where you really feel like 384 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 2: you're in God's will and you're living it out because 385 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:29,320 Speaker 2: God starts using you for things and you're seeing the impact. 386 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 2: And that's what's exciting, because if not, if you're just 387 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 2: getting all this Bible knowledge and you're not and you're 388 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:35,919 Speaker 2: just it's just like school, like I'm going to school, 389 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 2: I'm getting this knowledge and then Okay, it's like you 390 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 2: have to be active. And when you tell people just 391 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 2: get active at anything, like at any capacity to go 392 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 2: flip burgers at the men's men's fellowship, or like work 393 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 2: in the parking lot, or like work in the children 394 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 2: or full do something. Just be active at some capacity 395 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:58,320 Speaker 2: and then one door will lead to the next door. 396 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:02,199 Speaker 2: And then that's why you find God uses just getting active. 397 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 2: But if you're not, you can't just like jump to 398 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 2: the front lines. And some people will say, well, God's 399 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 2: called me to be on the stage, and you're like, dude, okay, 400 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,959 Speaker 2: well okay, so you want to be famous basically, like 401 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 2: that's not yeah, you know, no, start somewhere and see 402 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 2: where God has you. He might has called you to that, 403 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 2: but you got to go through this process of letting 404 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 2: God develop your character because he's not going to give 405 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 2: you more than you can handle. If you if you 406 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 2: obviously think you want to be on the stage, you're 407 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:31,120 Speaker 2: a heart's wrong. He might be calling you share your story, 408 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,120 Speaker 2: but you don't have to do it on the stage. 409 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 2: I started in a rehab but like three people, four people, 410 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 2: and that that was like for years, you know, yeah, 411 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 2: and then God started developing me. I was scared of 412 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 2: the stage. I was like, I'm not getting out there 413 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:43,760 Speaker 2: on the stage, right, You're crazy. 414 00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, I didn't. I had want. I wanted nothing to 415 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 3: do with the stage. 416 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 4: You know. 417 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 2: We got back from Israel. We were talking about Israel 418 00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 2: and and this is when I first got saved, you know, 419 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,719 Speaker 2: maybe like probably like four months into it. We went 420 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 2: to Israel and we got back. My dad was like, hey, 421 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 2: I'm going to bring some of the people from the 422 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,800 Speaker 2: Israel trip to get up on stay agent kind of share. 423 00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 2: And I was on the side stage ready to go up, 424 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 2: and it was like a bunch of it was like 425 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,159 Speaker 2: a group, and they went up and I went the 426 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 2: other the other way. I didn't go up. I was like, 427 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,679 Speaker 2: I am not getting up there. I'm terrified of that. 428 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 4: Yeah. 429 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 3: No, I when I growing up, I was, you know, dyslexic, 430 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 3: you didn't do well in school like there was and 431 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 3: I honestly thought pastors were kind of like, you know, 432 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 3: just it was just like I would never want to 433 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 3: do that. Yeah, these guys are woosies, you know, like 434 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 3: they up there crying and begging for money every week. 435 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 4: There's no way. 436 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 3: I thought it was the stupidest job in the world. 437 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 3: And I got saved, and I was traveling with my 438 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 3: parents and like, the Lord's you know, spoke to me 439 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,679 Speaker 3: real clearly you're going to be a pastor. I was like, 440 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,439 Speaker 3: that's your problem, man, you know. I mean, I'll do it, 441 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 3: but you got to. You got a guy who can't 442 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:46,199 Speaker 3: read out loud because I'm you know, dyslexic. You got 443 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,480 Speaker 3: a guy who doesn't like to be on stage. You 444 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 3: got your work cut out for you, you know. But 445 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 3: you know, I mean beyond that, I think I think 446 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:57,280 Speaker 3: it's important for for pastors to understand what our job is. 447 00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 3: And you know, our job is that equip peace, you know. 448 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 3: And of course Paul tells Timothy do the work of 449 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,479 Speaker 3: an evangelist, you know, And I was thinking through that, 450 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 3: you know, when a pastor is doing the work of 451 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 3: an evangelists. Not only am I going to, you know, 452 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 3: personally share the Gospel with people, because I think it's 453 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 3: important as a model for the people who I serve 454 00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,119 Speaker 3: here at Calgary Emmett that they know I'm sharing my 455 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:25,680 Speaker 3: faith with people, but also that I'm sharing the Gospel 456 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 3: during the service and every service always I usually during communion, 457 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 3: I'll share the Gospel sometimes during the middle of the service, 458 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 3: but I always share the gospel. And then I think 459 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 3: a part that's kind of left out is that it's 460 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 3: my job as a pastor to facilitate opportunities for people 461 00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 3: to share the gospel. So like right now in our town, 462 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 3: we have this cherry festival, and it's like it's a 463 00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 3: whole thing, you know, like they have people. Forty thousand 464 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 3: people will come in and you know, ride rides and 465 00:20:55,080 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 3: go to Booth's and we have a double booth there. 466 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,120 Speaker 3: We give away fifteen thousand bottles of water, you know, on. 467 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 2: A person account them, you know, so we buy pallets, right, 468 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 2: so we're gonna buy eight pallets of water. 469 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 3: And then our church also brings in like excuse me, 470 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,520 Speaker 3: they bring in like a bunch of bottle you know, 471 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 3: free stacks of stick them in a trailer that we 472 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 3: have out here for a month. They fill it up 473 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 3: and then we take it all down there and then 474 00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 3: we just pass them out and we pass out tracks. 475 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:26,959 Speaker 3: We do surveys with people, like the gospel surveys and stuff, 476 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 3: and I a lot of time will go out there 477 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 3: and just you know, use that one to tend thing 478 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 3: and just talk to people. But it gives people in 479 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 3: our church an opportunity not just to see me out 480 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 3: there sharing the gospel of people, but it also gives 481 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,080 Speaker 3: them an opportunity to talk to people about Jesus because 482 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,360 Speaker 3: and they're out in the in the community before, right, Yeah, 483 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 3: they're out in the community. And then and then we 484 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,120 Speaker 3: do our BBS. You know, a lot of churches trying 485 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 3: to get people on campus, which I think is is great. 486 00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 3: You know, get people on the campus to your church. 487 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 3: But we do ours in the park because we want 488 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 3: to reach people, you know, where they're at. 489 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 2: Is that at the same time, but it's in that park. 490 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 4: In the same park. 491 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 3: We have a cherry festival right now, and then in 492 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:09,120 Speaker 3: July we'll be doing BBS in the park seventh through 493 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 3: the tenth I think. And then right after BBS we 494 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 3: have Church in the Park, so that Sunday, and so 495 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 3: it kind of builds up and so we tell all 496 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,160 Speaker 3: the kids, Hey, you're going to sing at church at 497 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 3: Church in the park, so they're all getting ready to 498 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 3: they'll bring their families and so then they come and 499 00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 3: that's just an opportunity for me to share the gospel. 500 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 3: That's what that whole thing is. And I don't consider 501 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:32,880 Speaker 3: myself like an evangelist like you are. But I know 502 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 3: that the Lord will use it. If I do the 503 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 3: work of an evangelist, right, I'm not going to have 504 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 3: the same impact that maybe you have, for Greg Gloria 505 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 3: has when you when you share the gospel, because that's 506 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 3: what God's called you to. But it's still going to happen. Right, 507 00:22:44,840 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 3: And if you put the seed out there, the seed 508 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 3: is the seed, right, I know it's you have an 509 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,679 Speaker 3: expert gardener who's thrown out seed and it's all all 510 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 3: the soils prepared. You have a dummy, he's thrown out 511 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:56,400 Speaker 3: seed and it still will grow. 512 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,080 Speaker 2: Right. I trip out on I do trip out on 513 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 2: like passes that don't share it like it's it's just 514 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,080 Speaker 2: the gospel John three sixteen. It's so and we you 515 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 2: and I know it's just it's evangelism. It's like or 516 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 2: it's just like the it's you. You say it and 517 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,879 Speaker 2: then God does, is what I mean. Right, It's the 518 00:23:12,920 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 2: spirit of God, like I'm saying the same thing you're 519 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:18,200 Speaker 2: saying exactly. And everyone has an opportunity if whoever shows 520 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 2: up at that church or wherever you're at and you 521 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 2: share the gospel, God's going to do it. If it's 522 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 2: one person or a thousand, it's like we all have 523 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 2: the spirit of God in this and he's the one 524 00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:35,479 Speaker 2: that brings the increase, So why not exactly it? 525 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, yeah, no, that's that's something that is 526 00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 3: amazing and frustrating because you know, as a minister, you know, 527 00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:46,480 Speaker 3: whether you're an evangelist or a pastor, that you can't 528 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 3: literally you can't do anything you're trying to do, like 529 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,400 Speaker 3: you're trying to get people to be born again. 530 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 4: You can't make somebody born again. 531 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 2: My mind's blowed as these guys that when I'm with 532 00:23:56,119 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 2: them every time we do an event and people get saved, 533 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:04,320 Speaker 2: I'm just like, what, it doesn't matter if it's like five, 534 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:09,280 Speaker 2: three thousand, whatever it be. I'm just like because it's God, 535 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 2: and all I'm doing is just saying the same thing. Right, 536 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:13,399 Speaker 2: I'm just diverse, you know. 537 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 4: But it's the power of the spirit. 538 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 2: Movie in spirit, it's the spirit of God. So just 539 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 2: do it and your mind will be blown no matter what. 540 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:21,879 Speaker 4: You know. 541 00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 2: What really blows my mind for as an evangelist because 542 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 2: because I will see more like a lot, right, because 543 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 2: it's ever gift. But even like if I'm there and 544 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 2: then just like if one person gets saved, I'm like, 545 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 2: do that's so gnarly, Like this moment right now, it's 546 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 2: like one guy like we're all this for this like 547 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:42,399 Speaker 2: that that blows my mind. 548 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 4: Or like a couple that's a good perspective though, you know. 549 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 2: That blows my mind.

But 561 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 2: it really really blows my mind. I'm like, dude, only 562 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 2: that a couple of people right now, that's insane. Yeah, 563 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 2: we all came, We're all just big production for these guys. 564 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's frustrating for me because like I've done like 565 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 3: I've done ultra calls and like nobody raised their hand. Yeah, 566 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 3: you know, and then I'll do ultra calls and like 567 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:29,880 Speaker 3: a ton of people raise their hand. 568 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:30,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 569 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 3: But it's almost like you can sense, like the Holy 570 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 3: Spirit's moving and you just know, like, you know, as 571 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 3: I'm sharing the gospel, I and you can just see 572 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:41,199 Speaker 3: it hitting people and then yeah, that increase, but you 573 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 3: just know it's the Lord working. But I can give 574 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,400 Speaker 3: that same message and that you know, and I think 575 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 3: you know, when it comes to the gifts of the 576 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 3: Holy Spirit, you know, there are gifts where you have 577 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 3: a gift, and then there are activities where like maybe 578 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 3: the gift the Lord's going to give you that for 579 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 3: just that moment, you know, like and you'll just you know, 580 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,120 Speaker 3: you speaking tongues when I've heard people say. 581 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,120 Speaker 4: That only speaking tongues one time, and. 582 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 3: I thought the gift, I said, well, you know, in 583 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 3: one Corinthians, chapter twelve, it talks about it talks about gifts, 584 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 3: It talks about ministries or activities, and it talks about ministries. 585 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 3: And so there's actually three things there. He says concerning 586 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 3: spirituals are translators putting gifts, but it actually isn't. In 587 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:27,280 Speaker 3: that first sentence, it says concerning spirituals. I don't want 588 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,440 Speaker 3: you to be ignorant. And then he talks about three 589 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:33,320 Speaker 3: types of things. So sometimes you have the gift like 590 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 3: I have the gift of teaching. You know, you know 591 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:38,400 Speaker 3: that you have the gift of evangelism. It's there, you're 592 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,359 Speaker 3: on the street, it's there, you're in the you know. 593 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 3: But other people, you know, they might prophesy one time, 594 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,919 Speaker 3: like I'm sure you've experienced that, Like you prophesied over somebody, 595 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 3: but then it never happened again, you know, because the 596 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,359 Speaker 3: Holy Spirit will give you that for the moment because 597 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 3: it's important that moment, but not again, you know. 598 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:59,199 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, And then you have with prophecy. Then you 599 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 2: have other people that just flow in it, flow in it. 600 00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,160 Speaker 2: And let's let's pull up actually, let's pull that passage 601 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 2: that you're talking about and let's read it. And I 602 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:12,159 Speaker 2: want to dive more into it after after the after 603 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 2: the break a little bit more, to kind of break 604 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 2: that down. If you could just kind of break that 605 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 2: down for the listeners so they could understand it a 606 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,600 Speaker 2: little bit more, and maybe we can dive into that. 607 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 2: Like I've seen, I've had moments where yeah, in the moment, 608 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 2: I was in New York and I was praying over 609 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 2: my friend because I was leaving the conference.

Host your 659 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 1: questions at Ryan Reeese on his Instagram, Twitter and or Facebook. 660 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,760 Speaker 1: Now to the Ryan rees Show. 661 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 2: All right, we were back with Mike Cues from Calvary 662 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 2: Emmett and we are talking about the Great Commission. And 663 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,800 Speaker 2: right before the break you were talking about how you 664 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,760 Speaker 2: know on First Corinthians, Paul writes about the spiritual gifts 665 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 2: not to be ignorant of them. And as we're talking 666 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 2: about the Great Commission, I want to get into some 667 00:30:50,160 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 2: stories of how as you've been out of the church 668 00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 2: doing the Great commission, how the gifts manifest that God 669 00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 2: uses you. And this is what's exciting is being used 670 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 2: by God. So being stepping out by faith like your 671 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:06,480 Speaker 2: son did, asking God, Hey, I missed that moment of 672 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,239 Speaker 2: witnessing this guy where you open another door. Next thing, 673 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 2: you know, he's witnessing to his friend. The guy comes 674 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:13,720 Speaker 2: to church, he's you know, he has some alcoho in 675 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 2: his breath, and that's all good. It's the starting point. 676 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 2: He had to get licked up to get into church. 677 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 2: But nevertheless, there's fruit now happening with his life. Right. Yeah, 678 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 2: so here you are, le let's jump into this Philrinthians. 679 00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 3: Yeah one Corinthians chapter twelve, which is you know, well known, 680 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 3: you know we've all taught this, but it says, now 681 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 3: concerning spiritual gifts, brother, and I don't do not want 682 00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 3: you to be ignorant. And you'll notice in your Bible 683 00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 3: that the word gifts is actually italicized because it's not 684 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,160 Speaker 3: in the original Greek. And so what you could actually 685 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 3: translate this is now concerning spiritual activities or spirituals is 686 00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 3: literal what Greek says, brother, and I don't want you 687 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 3: to be ignorant. And then he goes on, he says 688 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:55,160 Speaker 3: there are diversities. In verse four, he says, there are 689 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 3: diversities of gifts, but the same spirit. There are difference 690 00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 3: of ministries, but the same spirit. Of activities, but the 691 00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 3: same spirit. So you have these three different things. You 692 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 3: have gifts, you have ministry. So gifts are like somebody 693 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 3: receives the gift of tongues, they receive the gift of prophecy, 694 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 3: they receive the gift of healing, and then like anytime 695 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 3: that person is moved to do that, they just can 696 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 3: heal somebody or they can prophesy over somebody. And you know, 697 00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 3: and there are people that have those gifts. But then 698 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 3: you have people who have ministries like pastor teacher, evangelist, 699 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 3: you know, somebody who has more of an apostolic ministry 700 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 3: over like Pastor Chuck who oversaw lots of different pastors 701 00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 3: and churches, you know, and God just calls him to 702 00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 3: that that type of ministry. And then and then you 703 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 3: have activities and this one is rarely talked about. You know, 704 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 3: like what does that mean? Well, it's that's when the 705 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 3: Holy Spirit comes upon you in a moment and gives 706 00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 3: you the gift of prophecy. For just or you know, 707 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,560 Speaker 3: the ability to prophesy, or the ability to speak in 708 00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 3: tongues one time, or the ability to interpret one time, 709 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 3: or the ability to be hospitable when maybe you're not 710 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:01,600 Speaker 3: normally hospitable, and whatever the gift might be, you have 711 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 3: the grace for it in that moment and then it's 712 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 3: you know, then it's just back on your normal life, right. 713 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. 714 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 3: And I think that happens like in church, like people 715 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 3: will come forward, will pray for them, they get healed, 716 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 3: and you know, then you you pray for the next 717 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:18,280 Speaker 3: person and they walk away there and not healed. Right yeah, yeah, 718 00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,760 Speaker 3: because you don't have that gift necessarily, right, or you prophesy. 719 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 3: That was one time we were doing an afterglow and 720 00:33:25,400 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 3: then we had this lady there that was like Jesus 721 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 3: was one of those odd ladies, super gifted in the spirit, 722 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 3: you know, and she came from a Pentecostal background, but 723 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 3: she's she told me, Pastor, you're gonna pray, You're gonna 724 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 3: prophesy over everybody tonight. And I was just like, but 725 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 3: it resonated with me, right, And so we went around 726 00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 3: the room and I laid hands on every person and 727 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 3: prophesied over them, and there was this one lady there. 728 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:52,000 Speaker 3: I didn't know her, and I put my hands on her. 729 00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 3: I started to pray for her, and then I just 730 00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,120 Speaker 3: started talking about like these trials that she was going 731 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 3: to go through, and I'm thinking, like, man, this lady's 732 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 3: gonna think I'm nuts. She's not going to ever want 733 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 3: to come back here. Well, Sunday that was on a Wednesday, 734 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:05,240 Speaker 3: Sunday morning she comes back. 735 00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 4: I'm like, I'm surprised. She's a church you know. 736 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,959 Speaker 3: And then her life Monday morning, her life came off 737 00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 3: the wheels, like her or the wheels came off her life, 738 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:17,160 Speaker 3: like just everything went crazy sideways. And so I ended 739 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 3: up talking to her on the phone later and she's like, man, 740 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 3: what you said is exactly what's going on, you know. 741 00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 3: But the cool thing was is it was like, this 742 00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:27,920 Speaker 3: is all going to happen, but the Lord's going to 743 00:34:27,960 --> 00:34:30,319 Speaker 3: be with you. And so like six months later she's 744 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,600 Speaker 3: calling me and things are just bad and she's like, man, 745 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 3: I don't know what to do. And I said, well, 746 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:39,320 Speaker 3: remember that night when when I prophesied over you, I said, 747 00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:42,440 Speaker 3: the Lord's going to be with you. And she was like, oh, 748 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:44,520 Speaker 3: thank you so much, Like that's what I needed to hear, 749 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 3: and like I don't feel like I have the gift 750 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 3: of prophecy, but you have the grace for that moment, 751 00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 3: that moment I had the grace to do it, you know. 752 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 2: Very interesting, Yeah, very very interesting. That's very interesting because 753 00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 2: there's the difference between the gifts the people that flow 754 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 2: in it, right, and then there's the grace for those 755 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:04,880 Speaker 2: those moments and you're like, whoa, that's interesting. 756 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:06,680 Speaker 3: But we need to see God for those moments, right, 757 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:10,040 Speaker 3: because you praise in faith, you pray over somebody that 758 00:35:10,040 --> 00:35:12,440 Speaker 3: the Lord will heal him, right, and then he does sometimes, 759 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,239 Speaker 3: you know, and and and to be sensitive to the 760 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,399 Speaker 3: Holy Spirit, you know when it comes to those things. 761 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:21,799 Speaker 2: M hm no, totally. Toy. Yeah, there's times when when 762 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:24,400 Speaker 2: else sense to do something, and then there's other times 763 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,200 Speaker 2: when I'm just like I'm gonna just step out on 764 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:30,000 Speaker 2: it and it and then like if it happens, amazing, 765 00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 2: If not, nothing to lose, right, he exactly, And that's 766 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,120 Speaker 2: what people need to understand. It's like because people have 767 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:37,560 Speaker 2: asked me. Someone the other day was asking me, oh, 768 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 2: my chiropractor. He was like he goes to Cawri boys, 769 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 2: and he's like, how do you hear God? And I said, well, 770 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 2: I said, God speaks in different ways. Sometimes I hear 771 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 2: like a small still voice, like a whisper, yeah, prompting. 772 00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:54,200 Speaker 2: And then sometimes I hear like it's just in my spirit. 773 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 2: I just feel it, like I just feel like I 774 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,600 Speaker 2: feel it prompting, or I hear like a whisper. And 775 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,080 Speaker 2: then he goes, but how do you know? I go, Yeah, 776 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 2: that's the whole thing is like to figure out what 777 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 2: is God's voice and what's your what's your mind? You know? 778 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 2: And I said the way God always when God. When 779 00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 2: I hear God speak to me, it's normally I ask him. 780 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,800 Speaker 2: It's when I'm asking him a question and he answers 781 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,719 Speaker 2: it before I finish, and then I ask it again 782 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 2: and he finishes it. He finishes it before. Yeah, he 783 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 2: answers me before I figure like I'm just asking the question. 784 00:36:26,560 --> 00:36:28,279 Speaker 2: I'm not even thinking. I'm like, well, what do you 785 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 2: think about that? And then the boom is just like 786 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:32,240 Speaker 2: the answer is there before I even finish. Yeah, that's 787 00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 2: how I know when it's the spirit, you know. And 788 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,880 Speaker 2: in one in one way of me hearing. 789 00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,399 Speaker 3: Him, well, I think That's important, Ryan, because when we 790 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:42,800 Speaker 3: talk to God, you know, we have the prayer time. 791 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 3: You know, we're supposed to, you know, have a relationship 792 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:48,799 Speaker 3: with him, and so he should be leading us. Jesus said, 793 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 3: my sheep hear my voice, and they hear my voice. Yeah, 794 00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 3: and so we should hear his voice and yeah, like 795 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 3: not always audible, you know. I don't think I've ever 796 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:56,960 Speaker 3: heard God's audible voice. 797 00:36:57,719 --> 00:37:01,680 Speaker 2: I know people who have, but I've actually heard yeah, 798 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,880 Speaker 2: go right, like like yeah, like I heard a go 799 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:05,920 Speaker 2: through my whole body. 800 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 4: Yeah. 801 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:09,240 Speaker 3: And so I think sometimes God speaks to people audibly. 802 00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 3: I don't think that's normal, but I think that He 803 00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 3: does speak to us in our spirit. He leads Like 804 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 3: for instance, one time, I'm I'm I'm coming awake in 805 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 3: the in that morning where you're kind of crazy and 806 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 3: you think things, and I'm just like in the middle 807 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:26,400 Speaker 3: of sleep and dream and I went waking up and 808 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 3: I was and I just thought, man, it would be 809 00:37:28,440 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 3: so cool to have a prayer and healing service and 810 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:34,800 Speaker 3: to you know, pray over people and see him get healed. 811 00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 4: Right. 812 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:38,600 Speaker 3: And as I'm coming to I'm realizing how crazy that sounds, 813 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:41,319 Speaker 3: you know, And and and It wasn't just because you know, 814 00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 3: that's a you know, radical thing to do, but you know, 815 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,160 Speaker 3: to put it yourself out there.

And 822 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 3: so I'm thinking, this is not a good idea, a 823 00:38:01,719 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 3: good time.

They're standing in the 841 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,680 Speaker 3: in the entryway and I walk up to him. I say, hey, 842 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 3: what's going on.

And 849 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 3: I was like, actually, we have one planned for March fourteenth, 850 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:10,800 Speaker 3: and she's like really, because we've been looking for a 851 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 3: church that have that. And it was like the Lord 852 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 3: just set this whole thing up, you know, for this couple. 853 00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 3: And then we have the service, and then you know 854 00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 3: a bunch of people got healed. Yep, you know, and 855 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:22,719 Speaker 3: and like we've had other prayer and healing service has 856 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 3: never been like that one, but that guy got healed 857 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 3: of a bladder cancer. 858 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 2: God wants to do it. God wants to do it, 859 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 2: and it's and I like that just being kind of 860 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,880 Speaker 2: led led by it and when he speaks to do it, 861 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 2: and it just opened yourself up. God can do it. 862 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 2: Might be one person, it might be several. It's like 863 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:42,759 Speaker 2: I've seen those things happen too. We've we've we've done 864 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,120 Speaker 2: those and God does it. It's like that. The whole 865 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:46,800 Speaker 2: thing is you have to take the pressure off yourself, 866 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 2: like you're not the guy, right. Yeah, it's because it's 867 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 2: the police, the spirit. 868 00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like. 869 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:54,719 Speaker 2: There's no there's no pressure. It's like, what we're gonna 870 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 2: do is the Bible talks about coming together worshiping and 871 00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,839 Speaker 2: praying and preaching the gospel and signs and wonders will follow. Right, 872 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:05,360 Speaker 2: So that's all worship. Let's praise the Lord, and let's 873 00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 2: lay hands on the sick and annoint to be oil. 874 00:40:07,800 --> 00:40:11,799 Speaker 2: And whatever happens after that happens after that. 875 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 3: Well, and I think a lot of people are they're like, oh, 876 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,400 Speaker 3: that's weird, you know, rubbing oil on people and you 877 00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:16,960 Speaker 3: know all that say. 878 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:18,239 Speaker 4: It just seems like a weird thing to do. 879 00:40:18,320 --> 00:40:20,640 Speaker 3: And I remember I grew up in churches that didn't 880 00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:22,399 Speaker 3: do that type of thing ever, Like they didn't pray 881 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:24,960 Speaker 3: over people in the front, they didn't expect God to 882 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:28,279 Speaker 3: heal anybody. And so coming into this, I was not 883 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:31,080 Speaker 3: coming from a Pentecostal background or anything, and so it's 884 00:40:31,120 --> 00:40:34,800 Speaker 3: all new to me. But you're right, it's about being obedient, 885 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:37,239 Speaker 3: just like Jesus said in Matthew twenty eight, teaching them 886 00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:38,840 Speaker 3: to obey all things. 887 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:40,800 Speaker 4: And so we move. 888 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:42,480 Speaker 3: Forward in faith by the power of the Holy Spirit, 889 00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 3: and we just obey what it says, and then we 890 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,960 Speaker 3: expect from God because we know that we can't do it. 891 00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 3: We just expect him to do it, to do it, 892 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,080 Speaker 3: and you know, and if he doesn't do it, then 893 00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:53,800 Speaker 3: it's not his time. But we're expecting him to do something. 894 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 4: Right. 895 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:56,640 Speaker 2: The safeguard is like we've heard Chucks say this, you 896 00:40:56,680 --> 00:41:00,200 Speaker 2: know a million times. Is like you know it like 897 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 2: we believe everything in the Bible. If it's not in 898 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:04,560 Speaker 2: the Bible, we don't believe it. So it's just like, hey, guys, 899 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:07,279 Speaker 2: you know what it's it's so like not weird. It's like, hey, look, 900 00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 2: James says this and read it and you'll say, so, 901 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:12,719 Speaker 2: we're gonna do that, right exactly, Jesus said this, So 902 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,359 Speaker 2: we're going to do that. And if it's not in here, 903 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,560 Speaker 2: I'm not doing it because I'm not trying to get weird. 904 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:20,480 Speaker 2: And that's it, and it doesn't have to be this 905 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:24,279 Speaker 2: whole like emotional thing come up we have. We're gonna 906 00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 2: just late. We're just gonna pray for you, and we're 907 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:27,840 Speaker 2: gonna get a little dabby with the oil what it 908 00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:29,840 Speaker 2: says in the Bible, and we're gonna just pray for you. 909 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 2: And it says they lay hands all the sick, so 910 00:41:32,239 --> 00:41:33,799 Speaker 2: we're gonna put our hands on you and we're gonna 911 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 2: pray for you, right, and then it just things happen. 912 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:36,719 Speaker 4: You know. 913 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,480 Speaker 3: There's something I recently started doing. I can't remember if 914 00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 3: I heard somebody say this or something, but when I 915 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:44,560 Speaker 3: pray for people now, like they come forward for prayer, 916 00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:47,560 Speaker 3: I'll ask them to all say what do you want 917 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:48,720 Speaker 3: Jesus to do for you? 918 00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:48,880 Speaker 4: You know? 919 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:50,359 Speaker 3: And then I'll say, will you ask him to do 920 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,160 Speaker 3: that for you? Because if you look through the Bible, 921 00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:55,520 Speaker 3: every time Jesus comes to somebody says, what do you 922 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 3: want me to do for you? Want to I want 923 00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 3: to be made whole, I want to see you know whatever, 924 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:03,040 Speaker 3: and so good that I've kind of instructed my elders 925 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:05,440 Speaker 3: when they're when people come up to the front and 926 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:08,359 Speaker 3: they want prayer, I want you to ask Jesus what 927 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 3: you want him to do for you? And then I'm 928 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:11,600 Speaker 3: going to agree with you in prayer. 929 00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 2: Because I would say, what do you want prayer for? 930 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,879 Speaker 2: But right, but reality is what do you want Jesus 931 00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:18,800 Speaker 2: to do for you? Because that's what you're asking exactly. 932 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:20,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, they come up because they want to be healed, 933 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,799 Speaker 3: they want to their hearts broken because they just got 934 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:26,880 Speaker 3: divorced or whatever, and so what do you want Jesus 935 00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:29,680 Speaker 3: to do for you? And then they can ask him 936 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:32,759 Speaker 3: because we have access, right, you know, we don't have 937 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:34,359 Speaker 3: to go to the prophet, we don't have to go 938 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,200 Speaker 3: to the priest, and we go directly to Jesus. And 939 00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:40,720 Speaker 3: so it helps them to know I can go to Jesus. 940 00:42:40,800 --> 00:42:43,400 Speaker 3: I don't have to necessarily have the pastor although I'm 941 00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 3: being obedient to the word by coming up and you know, 942 00:42:46,280 --> 00:42:47,919 Speaker 3: you know, it's one thing that was really cool about 943 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:51,560 Speaker 3: that couple, that that got prayed for that wanted the 944 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:55,920 Speaker 3: prayer and healing service every Sunday from the time that 945 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:58,600 Speaker 3: they that I met them, every Sunday they came forward 946 00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 3: for prayer until the day that we did that Parer 947 00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 3: and Healing service, and the Lord heal him at the 948 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 3: pary and healing service. But they faithfully, they didn't just 949 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 3: like oh, we're gonna wait. They came up every Sunday 950 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 3: and prayed. 951 00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:11,399 Speaker 2: And now we have not because you're asked not keep 952 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:14,920 Speaker 2: on seeking anyone flyre knock on the door. Seek speaks seeking, 953 00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:18,200 Speaker 2: keeps seeking, Yeah, seeking, And and you know they had 954 00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:18,880 Speaker 2: different appointments. 955 00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:20,719 Speaker 3: Hey, we're gonna go to this appointment, and we're gonna 956 00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:22,160 Speaker 3: go to that appointment, and we need prayer for this 957 00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:25,239 Speaker 3: or whatever. But ultimately, like it all culminated in that 958 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:28,640 Speaker 3: parent healing service. And you know, I think it's we 959 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:30,560 Speaker 3: just have to be open to what God wants to do, 960 00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:34,080 Speaker 3: you know, whether it's evangelism. You know, I'm gonna go 961 00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 3: and talk to people and tell them about Jesus and 962 00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:39,359 Speaker 3: I'm gonna trust Him for the result. And I'm gonna 963 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,000 Speaker 3: you know, pray over somebody for healing and I'm gonna 964 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:43,919 Speaker 3: trust him for the results.

So you're 967 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:50,960 Speaker 3: just like, Okay, Jesus has to take care of this, 968 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 3: you know. 969 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, and we don't have to overcomplicate it as as believers. 970 00:43:56,040 --> 00:43:58,520 Speaker 2: Just what I've learned is just it all comes down 971 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 2: to that daily relationship with with Christ is just waking 972 00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:05,200 Speaker 2: up in the morning making sure you could spend some 973 00:44:05,320 --> 00:44:07,239 Speaker 2: time because I know I've talked to like different people 974 00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:08,919 Speaker 2: and they're like, well, I'm so busy. Life's so busy. 975 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:12,400 Speaker 2: It's like you make time for everything else. You gotta 976 00:44:12,520 --> 00:44:15,719 Speaker 2: find time to spend with God. And you know, like 977 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:17,440 Speaker 2: for me, I get up, I put on I've sent 978 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 2: this a million times. I'm I keep saying it. I 979 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:23,040 Speaker 2: turn on the Kwave app. It's a station south of 980 00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:25,920 Speaker 2: California and has Bible studies every thirty minutes. There's a 981 00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:27,840 Speaker 2: ton of these wherever you're at in the world, and 982 00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:30,440 Speaker 2: it just Bible study every thirty minutes. I'm up, I'm 983 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:33,239 Speaker 2: brushing my teeth, I'm getting ready, drinking my coffee, taking 984 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 2: a shower, I have the Word of God, and I'm 985 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:37,840 Speaker 2: hearing the Word of God immediately. And if I'm not 986 00:44:37,920 --> 00:44:40,480 Speaker 2: feeling the study, I put worship music on and then 987 00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:42,880 Speaker 2: I go down I read my devotions. It takes like 988 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:45,400 Speaker 2: probably fifteen minutes. From reading my devotions, I have four 989 00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:48,400 Speaker 2: different devotions, one little couple paragraphs each one, and then 990 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:50,759 Speaker 2: I read my propert for the day. And then when 991 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,280 Speaker 2: I'm going to work, I listen to a Bible study. 992 00:44:53,360 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 2: On the way to work. I'm already doing all that. 993 00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 2: What else are you gonna Okay, this is a question, 994 00:44:58,480 --> 00:44:59,879 Speaker 2: what else are you going to do in that time? 995 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:00,839 Speaker 4: Right? 996 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:04,680 Speaker 2: You think about that, You've already reels.

And 999 00:45:12,080 --> 00:45:13,560 Speaker 2: then the rest of the day they listen to whatever 1000 00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:15,879 Speaker 2: you want later on, you know, when you're driving home 1001 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:18,400 Speaker 2: or whatever. But just get your mind on Christ in 1002 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:20,320 Speaker 2: the morning, and that's what's going to sustain you for 1003 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 2: the rest of the day. And then you're going to 1004 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:24,000 Speaker 2: see things happen throughout the day. You'll be used. But 1005 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 2: when you don't do that, you're just feeding your flesh, 1006 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,719 Speaker 2: your body appetites, and now you're not in tuned to 1007 00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:32,400 Speaker 2: the spirit, right, and then you're wondering why your day sucks. 1008 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:35,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that's the facts. That's pretty true. 1009 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:38,279 Speaker 2: Yeah. So it's just it's already dead time that you're 1010 00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:41,200 Speaker 2: gonna time that you can get what you want to 1011 00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 2: get done anyway right in the morning and just be done. 1012 00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:46,439 Speaker 4: Yeah. And one cool thing we're doing with our church 1013 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:46,799 Speaker 4: this year. 1014 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:49,120 Speaker 3: We did it last year too, but we get on 1015 00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:52,640 Speaker 3: the Bible app and we have a group and so 1016 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:55,120 Speaker 3: you can as a church, you can read the Bible together. 1017 00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:56,000 Speaker 4: And so we're all together. 1018 00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:58,000 Speaker 3: There's like one hundred and fifteen of us or something 1019 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,840 Speaker 3: like that, and everybody's reading the Bible together. And so 1020 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:03,960 Speaker 3: every year we do a different plan, you know, whether 1021 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,399 Speaker 3: it's through the Bible straight through or this year we're 1022 00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:10,800 Speaker 3: doing the blended plan. But that way, I'm given the 1023 00:46:10,880 --> 00:46:13,759 Speaker 3: opportunity for my church to read through the Bible, the 1024 00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:15,320 Speaker 3: whole Bible in a year, you know. And then we 1025 00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:16,920 Speaker 3: have a Book of the Month as well that we do, 1026 00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:19,120 Speaker 3: you know. And these are just ways to equip people, 1027 00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:22,319 Speaker 3: you know, to do that discipleship, you know, so they're 1028 00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:24,439 Speaker 3: coming to church. They're hearing the word of God. They're 1029 00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 3: reading the word of God on their own with their 1030 00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 3: family hopefully or whatever. 1031 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:28,279 Speaker 4: Maybe on their own. 1032 00:46:28,520 --> 00:46:30,600 Speaker 3: I mean, they're reading good books. So every week we 1033 00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 3: have every month we have a Book of the Month, 1034 00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:35,840 Speaker 3: books that have impacted my life, that have discipled me, 1035 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:39,480 Speaker 3: you know, like Tozer's Pursuit of God or you know, 1036 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 3: we listen. We do a lot of biographies, like we 1037 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:45,120 Speaker 3: just did worm Brand, you know, and so people are 1038 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:49,680 Speaker 3: learning about what God's doing. And one thing that's important 1039 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:52,239 Speaker 3: that's been important in my walk with the Lord, like 1040 00:46:52,400 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 3: reading Brother Andrew or reading Hudson Taylor, and you read 1041 00:46:56,200 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 3: about these guys who God really used and you realize 1042 00:47:00,440 --> 00:47:02,759 Speaker 3: God could use me that way too, right, And so 1043 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:04,800 Speaker 3: it kind of gives you, you know, I don't know, 1044 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:06,279 Speaker 3: maybe I had the wrong idea about it. When I 1045 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,839 Speaker 3: read Paul did, I'm like, well, that's because it's Paul right. 1046 00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:09,040 Speaker 2: No. 1047 00:47:09,600 --> 00:47:12,120 Speaker 3: But when you read about like brother Andrew doing it 1048 00:47:12,200 --> 00:47:14,800 Speaker 3: and he was kind of a scoundrel, or George Mueller, 1049 00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:17,400 Speaker 3: he was really a scoundrel. You know, God saved and 1050 00:47:17,560 --> 00:47:20,200 Speaker 3: God transforms his life and they did amazing things. It's like, 1051 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:22,879 Speaker 3: how you know, if God could use that guy, God 1052 00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 3: could use me, you know, and it kind of helps 1053 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:27,359 Speaker 3: us to build our faith. But those things that help 1054 00:47:27,400 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 3: build people's faith and help them to grow in their 1055 00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:31,000 Speaker 3: faith with Jesus. 1056 00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:33,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, if you want it, like as in you, if 1057 00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:36,160 Speaker 2: you really want this relationship with God, as far as 1058 00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:39,600 Speaker 2: like living it, living life to the fullest, like your 1059 00:47:39,640 --> 00:47:43,120 Speaker 2: purpose and knowing your calling life and what God wants 1060 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:47,080 Speaker 2: to do with you every you know, daily, monthly, yearly. 1061 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:50,279 Speaker 2: You got to want it, You got to get after it.

It's 1091 00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:16,480 Speaker 2: like versus just this plant. It's just like, Okay, I 1092 00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:18,600 Speaker 2: just have this plant, but it produces well. 1093 00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:20,680 Speaker 3: I think I think people think, you know, and I've 1094 00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:22,640 Speaker 3: heard this a lot, like and I don't know what 1095 00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:26,520 Speaker 3: causes this mindset.

And it's true, I'm not saved 1099 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:34,480 Speaker 3: by my works. But how do I know that somebody 1100 00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:35,720 Speaker 3: else won't be saved by my works? 1101 00:49:35,840 --> 00:49:36,040 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1102 00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:37,919 Speaker 4: Right, because people will do the works. 1103 00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,360 Speaker 2: But the thing is is like when you're when you 1104 00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:43,440 Speaker 2: do the works, it's not like you're going you're doing 1105 00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:45,520 Speaker 2: it by your It's not like to get right with God, 1106 00:49:45,600 --> 00:49:48,439 Speaker 2: like I'm doing these works. I'm a good person. When 1107 00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:53,400 Speaker 2: you step out and like your son, for instance, he 1108 00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:56,359 Speaker 2: stepped out in faith that hey, God, if you open 1109 00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:59,160 Speaker 2: another door, I'll do it. And then God opens the door. 1110 00:49:59,480 --> 00:50:02,440 Speaker 2: So now you're like, oh, God heard of my prayer, epic, 1111 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:05,879 Speaker 2: this is amazing. First of all, that's amazing, and then 1112 00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:09,919 Speaker 2: he talks to the guy by faith, the guy comes 1113 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:13,840 Speaker 2: to church and then he gives his life to Christ. Right, Okay, 1114 00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:16,799 Speaker 2: you're like, whoa. When you really look at that, you're 1115 00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:20,759 Speaker 2: like that would didn't even feel like a work. But 1116 00:50:21,120 --> 00:50:24,600 Speaker 2: in reality, you're like, I asked the God of the universe, Hey, 1117 00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:27,600 Speaker 2: would you use me, and then boom, he opens the 1118 00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:29,760 Speaker 2: door like he heard my prayer and then you speak, 1119 00:50:30,160 --> 00:50:31,920 Speaker 2: He uses you. The guy gets saved, and you're like, 1120 00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:33,920 Speaker 2: and now you're seeing a guy that was messed up 1121 00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 2: walking with God and you're like, dude, that's just amazing, 1122 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:41,319 Speaker 2: Like that's the cool part of Christianity is being used. 1123 00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:45,680 Speaker 2: That's the great commission is so in the natural realm, 1124 00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:49,200 Speaker 2: God's using you supernaturally and that's exciting. Then you're like, 1125 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:51,239 Speaker 2: I want to be used again, God, what's dex exactly? Now? 1126 00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:52,759 Speaker 2: What do you want me to do? Oh? You want 1127 00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:53,920 Speaker 2: me to go pray for that guy? And then all 1128 00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:56,560 Speaker 2: boom he gets healed and you're like, what the heck? 1129 00:50:57,200 --> 00:50:59,839 Speaker 2: That was insane and he God's like I got more? 1130 00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:01,759 Speaker 2: What's up? You want to you know you want? And 1131 00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:04,520 Speaker 2: that's like what's exciting. That's like the spirit of that life, 1132 00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:05,560 Speaker 2: that's what's exciting. 1133 00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:06,040 Speaker 4: Right. 1134 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:08,719 Speaker 2: It's not just about knowing. I mean, how stupid is 1135 00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:11,120 Speaker 2: it to know all the stories and not step out 1136 00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:13,879 Speaker 2: and be used and to see it come to life. 1137 00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 3: Well, I think a lot of people feel like they 1138 00:51:15,239 --> 00:51:18,360 Speaker 3: can't be used, right they can because yeah, they can absolutely, 1139 00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:20,440 Speaker 3: Because there's no condemnation to those who are in Christ. 1140 00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:23,000 Speaker 4: Jesus paid the full price, and you're his. 1141 00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:27,160 Speaker 2: Look at Peter, right, he denied Jesus exactly three times 1142 00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:28,360 Speaker 2: and made eye contact. 1143 00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:31,440 Speaker 3: I think that was the biggest problem for me. I 1144 00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:33,799 Speaker 3: remember Pastor Chuck one time listening to him on the radio, 1145 00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:35,920 Speaker 3: and he was like, I expect God to bless me 1146 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:38,320 Speaker 3: every day, and They're like, how do you feel like 1147 00:51:38,480 --> 00:51:40,719 Speaker 3: you can? Like that just seems so crazy to me, 1148 00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:43,400 Speaker 3: and I just like started thinking about that. But I 1149 00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:46,400 Speaker 3: maybe having kids helped, because you look at your kids 1150 00:51:46,840 --> 00:51:49,400 Speaker 3: and they could be turds, but you know, you just 1151 00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:52,400 Speaker 3: want to bless them, you know. And it's like it 1152 00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:55,120 Speaker 3: breaks your heart when they're disobedient and you can't bless them, 1153 00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:57,240 Speaker 3: I know, right, And that's the way the Lord Jesus 1154 00:51:57,880 --> 00:52:00,719 Speaker 3: times ten, right, He just wont wants an opportunity to 1155 00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:02,920 Speaker 3: bless us. But I think what you hit on earlier 1156 00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:06,439 Speaker 3: was is the key. It's a relationship with him, because 1157 00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:09,759 Speaker 3: this isn't about me. This is about me and him 1158 00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:13,799 Speaker 3: and the relationship that we have and building that relationship 1159 00:52:14,080 --> 00:52:17,279 Speaker 3: and doing those things in relationship with him, because he 1160 00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:20,120 Speaker 3: loves us. He wants to walk with us through those things. 1161 00:52:20,560 --> 00:52:22,560 Speaker 3: He wants us to flourish. 1162 00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:27,520 Speaker 2: He understands, He understands what we're going through. There's so 1163 00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:32,680 Speaker 2: much grace I've learned. There's so much. There's so much grace, 1164 00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 2: and God loves us so much that he's not this 1165 00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:42,280 Speaker 2: mean father. Right. He wants to help you. He understands 1166 00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:46,000 Speaker 2: when you're shortcomings. He understands those moments of weakness, like 1167 00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:50,000 Speaker 2: he understands, and he just wants us to get right, 1168 00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:53,000 Speaker 2: like forgive me, help me. Like it's about our heart. 1169 00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:55,799 Speaker 2: He sees our heart if you're going out and your 1170 00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:57,880 Speaker 2: heart if you're saying all the right things, but your 1171 00:52:57,920 --> 00:53:02,680 Speaker 2: heart's wrong, he knows. But if you're doing all the 1172 00:53:02,719 --> 00:53:05,120 Speaker 2: wrong things in your heart's right and you're like trying 1173 00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:08,359 Speaker 2: to get you know, you're trying to get right, he sees. Yeah, 1174 00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 2: that's the thing. It's like, where's your head at? Not 1175 00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:13,240 Speaker 2: your head, where's your heart at? Right, you know, because 1176 00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:15,919 Speaker 2: your head does stupid stuff and we listen, we listen 1177 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,839 Speaker 2: to stupid thoughts, right, you know, But it's our heart. 1178 00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:23,239 Speaker 2: If he knows you're literally trying to get it right, 1179 00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:26,200 Speaker 2: and he'll help you and do it. So we have 1180 00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:27,040 Speaker 2: a couple of minutes left. 1181 00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:30,359 Speaker 3: Any last words, Yeah, you know, I think that it's 1182 00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:33,800 Speaker 3: it's just really important for us to be obedient to Jesus. 1183 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:36,359 Speaker 3: And of course obedience is easy when you love him, 1184 00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:38,640 Speaker 3: you know, and you're walking with him every day. So 1185 00:53:38,760 --> 00:53:40,560 Speaker 3: I think those are the important things that we talked 1186 00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:42,960 Speaker 3: about today, you know, is this relationship that we have 1187 00:53:43,080 --> 00:53:46,600 Speaker 3: with God when we when we have a relationship with Him, 1188 00:53:46,840 --> 00:53:48,960 Speaker 3: we want to be obedient to him. And then we 1189 00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:51,319 Speaker 3: go I love in the in the Greek that we'll 1190 00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:54,040 Speaker 3: go into all the world. It's it's as you go, 1191 00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:57,640 Speaker 3: you know, as you go, you know, it's it's like 1192 00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:00,360 Speaker 3: as you go. Yeah, it's a present, continual as you go. 1193 00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:05,000 Speaker 3: As you go, you know, share the gospel, preach to 1194 00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:08,600 Speaker 3: every nation you know, and be let it be part 1195 00:54:08,640 --> 00:54:10,080 Speaker 3: of your life. And what you're doing should be a 1196 00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:13,160 Speaker 3: natural thing. But it all stems from that relationship, and 1197 00:54:13,280 --> 00:54:17,200 Speaker 3: then teaching others to be obedient as you've been taught, 1198 00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:18,799 Speaker 3: as you've been taught by the Lord, as you've been 1199 00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:21,720 Speaker 3: taught by going to church and growing in your faith. 1200 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,600 Speaker 3: Teach others to do the same. And that's what the 1201 00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:26,600 Speaker 3: great commission is. It's not just sharing the gospel, with 1202 00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:30,360 Speaker 3: people and hoping they get saved. It's actually the discipleship peace. 1203 00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:32,600 Speaker 3: And then the most important thing is low I'm with 1204 00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:34,160 Speaker 3: you always, even to the end of the age. 1205 00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:36,080 Speaker 4: He's with us, you know, And so we. 1206 00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:38,239 Speaker 3: Don't have to feel like we're alone. Even when we 1207 00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 3: feel like we're alone, he's right there letting us feel 1208 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,359 Speaker 3: like we're alone, right, And he loves us. He wants 1209 00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:43,880 Speaker 3: to go with us, and he's going to go with us. 1210 00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:45,480 Speaker 2: And so I got a thought of like, when you 1211 00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:48,480 Speaker 2: invite people to church, it's just like, come check it 1212 00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:50,920 Speaker 2: out that there's actually a lot of cool principles and 1213 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:52,719 Speaker 2: things that you can apply to your life that they 1214 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:53,200 Speaker 2: can help you. 1215 00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:53,520 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1216 00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:55,399 Speaker 2: Absolutely no. If they're like I don't know about yours, 1217 00:54:56,320 --> 00:55:00,120 Speaker 2: there's some cool stuff that is said that I mean me, 1218 00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:02,680 Speaker 2: how better are you? You know? And then the Gospels 1219 00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:04,400 Speaker 2: preaching and all that, and then they're like, yeah, this 1220 00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:08,000 Speaker 2: stuff really works.
