00:00:01.150 --> 00:00:02.130
- LOUIE GIGLIO: HI.
00:00:02.150 --> 00:00:03.190
I'M LOUIE GIGLIO, THE FOUNDER OF PASSION
00:00:03.210 --> 00:00:05.040
CONFERENCES, AND I'M SO EXCITED FOR THE MOMENT
00:00:05.060 --> 00:00:08.020
YOU'RE ABOUT TO WITNESS LIVE FROM PASSION 2019.
00:00:08.040 --> 00:00:12.030
EARLIER THIS YEAR, NEARLY 40.000 YOUNG MEN AND
00:00:12.050 --> 00:00:15.010
WOMEN FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD GATHERED TOGETHER
00:00:15.030 --> 00:00:18.120
IN MULTIPLE LOCATIONS ACROSS ATLANTA,
00:00:18.140 --> 00:00:20.150
WASHINGTON DC, AND DALLAS.
00:00:20.170 --> 00:00:23.070
FOR THREE DAYS, WE WORSHIPPED TOGETHER, WE
00:00:23.090 --> 00:00:25.200
GREW TOGETHER, AND WE FOCUSED OUR LIVES
00:00:25.220 --> 00:00:28.050
ON JESUS.
00:00:28.070 --> 00:00:29.250
IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR A TALK THAT
00:00:29.270 --> 00:00:33.020
I GAVE DURING THE FINAL SESSION WHERE I
00:00:33.040 --> 00:00:35.090
ENCOURAGED EVERYONE WHO HAS DOUBTS AND QUESTIONS
00:00:35.110 --> 00:00:38.130
ABOUT GOD TO ACCEPT HIS INVITATION
00:00:38.150 --> 00:00:41.050
TO INVESTIGATE.
00:00:41.070 --> 00:00:42.290
I BELIEVE THIS MESSAGE IS ALSO GOING TO CONNECT
00:00:43.010 --> 00:00:45.190
WITH SOME OF YOU RIGHT NOW.
00:00:45.210 --> 00:00:48.030
AT THE END OF THE TALK, YOU'LL HEAR A BEAUTIFUL
00:00:48.050 --> 00:00:50.170
NEW SONG FROM SHAUN CURRAN, A SONG THAT GOES
00:00:50.190 --> 00:00:53.020
RIGHT ALONG WITH THIS THOUGHT.
00:00:53.040 --> 00:00:55.230
JESUS HAS SOMETHING FOR YOU IN THIS EPISODE.
00:00:55.250 --> 00:00:59.140
SO LEAN IN AND GET READY FOR PASSION 2019 ON TBN.
00:00:59.160 --> 00:01:04.080
SO IF YOU'RE IN THIS GATHERING, YOU'RE LIKE
00:01:04.100 --> 00:01:08.060
I'VE HEARD IT ALL, I'VE SEEN IT ALL, I'VE
00:01:08.080 --> 00:01:10.070
WITNESSED IT ALL, I'VE BEEN HERE FOR IT ALL, I'M
00:01:10.090 --> 00:01:12.080
NOT AGAINST IT BUT HEY, I JUST STILL DON'T
00:01:12.100 --> 00:01:14.110
BELIEVE IT.
00:01:14.130 --> 00:01:16.060
WELL, I WANT YOU TO KNOW YOU'RE WELCOME HERE
00:01:16.080 --> 00:01:18.130
BECAUSE THE GOD OF HEAVEN DOES NOT DESPISE YOUR
00:01:18.150 --> 00:01:20.270
INVESTIGATION BECAUSE HE KNOWS DOWN AT THE BOTTOM
00:01:20.290 --> 00:01:22.170
OF ALL YOUR QUESTIONS HE IS ETERNALLY GOD.
00:01:22.190 --> 00:01:28.060
[MUSIC]
00:01:28.080 --> 00:01:34.130
- SO WHEN WE CAME INTO PASSION 2019, WE WERE
00:01:34.150 --> 00:01:35.250
PRAYING THAT EVERYONE WOULD BE SEEN.
00:01:35.270 --> 00:01:40.030
THAT'S WHERE WE WERE ON NIGHT ONE, THAT YOU WOULD
00:01:40.050 --> 00:01:43.050
KNOW THAT GOD SEES YOU RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE SO
00:01:43.070 --> 00:01:46.240
YOU DON'T HAVE TO PRETEND, YOU DIDN'T HAVE
00:01:46.260 --> 00:01:48.140
TO PUT UP A FRONT.
00:01:48.160 --> 00:01:50.040
YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO PUT UP SOME FACADE AND PUT ON
00:01:50.060 --> 00:01:52.180
THE PASSION 2019 EXTERIOR, BUT THAT GOD
00:01:52.200 --> 00:01:55.160
SAW YOU RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE.
00:01:55.180 --> 00:01:58.000
WHO KNEW HOW HE WAS GOING TO UNFOLD THE NEXT TWO
00:01:58.020 --> 00:02:01.150
HOURS TO VALIDATE AND AMEN THAT REALITY OVER
00:02:01.170 --> 00:02:05.150
AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN SO THAT IN THE
00:02:05.170 --> 00:02:08.120
COURSE OF THE TIME WE'VE BEEN HERE, EVERYONE COULD
00:02:08.140 --> 00:02:12.050
JUST COME AS THEY ARE WITH ALL THEIR STUFF
00:02:12.070 --> 00:02:15.030
RIGHT OUT INTO THE LIGHT AND INTO THE OPENNESS OF
00:02:15.050 --> 00:02:18.100
THE GRACE OF VEHICLE AND FIND THAT HEALING THAT WE
00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:21.100
WERE SINGING ABOUT HERE IN STATE FARM JUST A
00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:24.030
FEW MOMENTS AGO.
00:02:24.050 --> 00:02:26.250
BUT WE STARTED BY SAYING GOD WANTS YOU TO KNOW
00:02:26.270 --> 00:02:30.070
THAT YOU'RE SEEN BECAUSE WE WANT TO END THIS
00:02:30.090 --> 00:02:32.250
GATHERING WITH ALL OF US KNOWING THAT WE ARE SENT,
00:02:32.270 --> 00:02:36.120
SO PASSION HAS NEVER BEEN ABOUT COMING TO PASSION.
00:02:36.140 --> 00:02:40.000
IT'S ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT MEETING WITH JESUS, AND
00:02:40.020 --> 00:02:43.150
WHEN YOU MEET WITH JESUS YOU NEVER LEAVE THE SAME.
00:02:43.170 --> 00:02:48.110
AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE PRAYING FOR PASSION 2019.
00:02:48.130 --> 00:02:51.070
IF OUR CAMPUSES DON'T KNOW THAT THIS HAPPENED,
00:02:51.090 --> 00:02:54.280
THEN DID THIS REALLY HAPPEN?
00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:58.010
IF OUR CITIES DON'T KNOW THAT THIS HAPPENED, THEN
00:02:58.030 --> 00:03:00.260
WHAT REALLY HAPPENED?
00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:03.020
IF OUR CHURCHES DON'T KNOW SOMETHING HAPPENED
00:03:03.040 --> 00:03:06.050
IN THAT PLACE AND IT CHANGED NOT ONLY OUR
00:03:06.070 --> 00:03:09.210
LIVES BUT THROUGH OUR LIVES IT IS ABOUT TO
00:03:09.230 --> 00:03:14.050
CHANGE EVERY LIFE THAT WE COME IN CONTACT WITH.
00:03:14.070 --> 00:03:18.170
OR AT LEAST HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO DO THAT.
00:03:18.190 --> 00:03:20.290
GOD IS WANTING TO SAY TO YOU I DO SEE YOU.
00:03:21.010 --> 00:03:23.030
I SEE YOU AS A FATHERLESS GENERATION.
00:03:23.050 --> 00:03:25.090
I SEE YOU FILLED WITH ANXIETY.
00:03:25.110 --> 00:03:27.170
I SEE YOU STRUGGLING IN A PIT OF DEPRESSION.
00:03:27.190 --> 00:03:29.180
I SEE YOU WITH LITTLE FAITH REALLY WANTING
00:03:29.200 --> 00:03:31.290
MORE FAITH.
00:03:32.010 --> 00:03:33.250
BUT HERE'S THE THING, NOW THAT YOU KNOW I SEE YOU
00:03:33.270 --> 00:03:35.240
AND YOU'VE OPENED UP THAT LITTLE WINDOW AND I'VE
00:03:35.260 --> 00:03:38.070
COME MOVING INTO YOUR HEART IN THESE DAYS, I
00:03:38.090 --> 00:03:40.150
WANT TO SEND YOU BACK INTO YOUR WORLD.
00:03:40.170 --> 00:03:45.150
I WANT TO SEND YOU BACK INTO YOUR WORLD FOR THE
00:03:45.170 --> 00:03:47.150
FAME AND THE RENOWN OF JESUS.
00:03:47.170 --> 00:03:49.270
IT SAID THAT AFTER JESUS WAS IN THAT WILDERNESS
00:03:49.290 --> 00:03:52.130
PERIOD BEFORE HE STARTED HIS PUBLIC MINISTRY 40
00:03:52.150 --> 00:03:55.080
DAYS AND 40 NIGHTS, AT THE END OF IT JUST
00:03:55.100 --> 00:03:58.160
BOMBARDED BY THE ENEMY WITH TEMPTATION, IT SAYS
00:03:58.180 --> 00:04:00.270
JESUS RETURNED IN THE POWER OF THE SPIRIT.
00:04:00.290 --> 00:04:06.180
AND THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO SPEAK OVER PASSION 2019.
00:04:06.200 --> 00:04:09.230
I DON'T KNOW HOW WE CAME, BUT I KNOW HOW GOD WANTS
00:04:09.250 --> 00:04:13.280
US TO RETURN.
00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:16.050
AND HE WANTS YOU AND ME TO RETURN TO WHATEVER IT
00:04:16.070 --> 00:04:18.270
IS IN THE POWER OF THE SPIRIT.
00:04:18.290 --> 00:04:23.100
BECAUSE THE BROKEN WORLD, THE CRAZINESS,
00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:26.010
THE CIRCUMSTANCES, THEY DIDN'T NECESSARILY CHANGE
00:04:26.030 --> 00:04:28.130
WHILE WE WERE HERE.
00:04:28.150 --> 00:04:30.130
BUT CAN ANYBODY TESTIFY AND SAY THAT SOMETHING
00:04:30.150 --> 00:04:32.140
CHANGED IN YOU WHILE YOU WERE HERE, THAT YOU'RE
00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:35.260
NOT THE SAME PERSON THAT WALKED THROUGH THE DOOR
00:04:35.280 --> 00:04:37.220
AT PASSION 2019?
00:04:37.240 --> 00:04:39.250
YOU'RE NOT THE SAME PERSON FROM A FEW DAYS AGO?
00:04:39.270 --> 00:04:43.180
AND GOD WANTS TO SEND US OUT FOR US TO RETURN IN
00:04:43.200 --> 00:04:46.100
THE POWER OF THE SPIRIT HAVING SAID, I'VE SEEN
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:49.050
ENOUGH TO TRUST GOD WITH MY FUTURE, WITH MY LIFE,
00:04:49.070 --> 00:04:55.090
WITH ALL MY DREAMS, I'VE SEEN ENOUGH TO TRUST GOD
00:04:55.110 --> 00:04:58.200
WITH MY LIFE.
00:04:58.220 --> 00:05:04.100
I WAS REMINDED OF THE STORY OF MOUNT CARAMEL IN
00:05:04.120 --> 00:05:08.160
THE OLD TESTAMENT.
00:05:08.180 --> 00:05:10.000
1 KINGS 18.
00:05:10.020 --> 00:05:11.290
AND MOST OF US WHO HAVE BEEN AROUND CHURCH KNOW
00:05:12.010 --> 00:05:14.180
THE STORY, ELIJAH PRAYS TO GOD, FIRE COMES DOWN
00:05:14.200 --> 00:05:16.080
FROM HEAVEN, CONSUMES HIS SACRIFICE, HIS ALTAR, AND
00:05:16.100 --> 00:05:19.120
ABSOLUTELY DISPLAYS THE GREATNESS OF GOD.
00:05:19.140 --> 00:05:23.090
IT'S A THROW DOWN CHALLENGE LIKE NO
00:05:23.110 --> 00:05:26.040
THROW DOWN CHALLENGE YOU'VE EVER SEEN.
00:05:26.060 --> 00:05:28.150
IT'S THE PROPHETS OF BAAL AND THE PROPHETS OF
00:05:28.170 --> 00:05:32.060
ASHERAH GOING RIGHT UP AGAINST THE LIVING GOD,
00:05:32.080 --> 00:05:34.250
AND ELIJAH HAS ENOUGH FAITH TO STAND IN THE
00:05:34.270 --> 00:05:39.000
MIDDLE OF THE MOMENT AND BELIEVE THAT GOD IS WHO
00:05:39.020 --> 00:05:41.020
HE SAYS HE IS.
00:05:41.040 --> 00:05:43.050
BUT BEFORE THIS CONFIRMING MOMENT, HE
00:05:43.070 --> 00:05:46.260
PUTS A CHALLENGE ON THE TABLE WITH A QUESTION,
00:05:46.280 --> 00:05:50.210
AND THE QUESTION IS FOUND IN VERSE 18 -- I MEAN VERSE
00:05:50.230 --> 00:05:54.140
21 OF CHAPTER 18 OF 1 KINGS.
00:05:54.160 --> 00:06:02.110
AND ELIJAH WENT BEFORE THE PEOPLE, AND HE SAID,
00:06:02.130 --> 00:06:06.120
HOW LONG WILL YOU WAIVER BETWEEN 2 OPINIONS?
00:06:06.140 --> 00:06:12.020
IF THE LORD IS GOD, FOLLOW HIM, BUT IF BAAL
00:06:12.040 --> 00:06:15.280
IS GOD, FOLLOW HIM.
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:18.280
AND THAT MESSAGE STRIKES AT CORD IN OUR HEARTS
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:24.100
BECAUSE WE KNOW THE REALITY OF THE
00:06:24.120 --> 00:06:26.110
WAVERING LIFE.
00:06:26.130 --> 00:06:28.050
WE KNOW THE REALITY OF COMING TO A MOMENT LIKE
00:06:28.070 --> 00:06:31.100
THIS AT PASSION AND COMING OVER TO THIS SIDE
00:06:31.120 --> 00:06:34.020
OF THE EQUATION AND GOING, I BELIEVE IT.
00:06:34.040 --> 00:06:37.070
I'M GOING TO AMEN IT.
00:06:37.090 --> 00:06:39.030
I'VE NEVER BEEN MORE CONVINCED IN MY LIFE THAT
00:06:39.050 --> 00:06:40.260
GOD IS FOR ME.
00:06:40.280 --> 00:06:42.070
I'VE NEVER BEEN MORE CLEAR THINKING IN OUR
00:06:42.090 --> 00:06:44.210
EXISTENCE THAT GOD CAN DO WHAT GOD SAYS HE CAN DO.
00:06:44.230 --> 00:06:48.270
HE CAN COUNT ME IN.
00:06:48.290 --> 00:06:50.100
I'M SAYING YES, LORD.
00:06:50.120 --> 00:06:51.240
I'M GOING TO BE A PART OF A JESUS GENERATION.
00:06:51.260 --> 00:06:53.160
THIS IS A MARKER FOR ME.
00:06:53.180 --> 00:06:55.240
BUT THEN NOT TOO LONG AFTER, MAYBE TWO WEEKS
00:06:55.260 --> 00:06:58.130
LATER OR NINE DAYS LATER OR A MONTH LATER
00:06:58.150 --> 00:07:02.030
CIRCUMSTANCES CHANGED, OUR BOYFRIEND SITS
00:07:02.050 --> 00:07:05.020
ACROSS THE TABLE AND SAYS I'VE DECIDED THAT I NEED
00:07:05.040 --> 00:07:08.250
SOME ALONE TIME WITH GOD, AND THEREFORE MAYBE WE
00:07:08.270 --> 00:07:11.040
NEED TO TAKE A TIME OUT IN OUR RELATIONSHIP, AND
00:07:11.060 --> 00:07:14.160
I JUST WILL SAY TO THE GUYS JUST FOR FREE AND TO
00:07:14.180 --> 00:07:18.030
THE LADIES AS WELL, IF YOU REALLY DO NEED
00:07:18.050 --> 00:07:20.050
SOME TIME TO BE WITH GOD IN YOUR RELATIONSHIP,
00:07:20.070 --> 00:07:22.210
THAT'S AWESOME BUT DON'T USE GOD AS A COP OUT IF
00:07:22.230 --> 00:07:25.270
YOU DON'T REALLY WANT TO STEP UP AND COMMIT IN ANY
00:07:25.290 --> 00:07:29.090
GIVE CIRCUMSTANCE IN LIFE.
00:07:29.110 --> 00:07:31.090
BUT THAT'S JUST ANOTHER TALK FOR ANOTHER DAY.
00:07:31.110 --> 00:07:33.240
BUT SAY THAT HAPPENS OR A PHONE CALL COMES OR YOUR
00:07:33.260 --> 00:07:36.060
MOM GETS DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER OR THE STATISTICS
00:07:36.080 --> 00:07:39.290
CLASS IS A WIPE OUT FOR YOU OR THE ANXIETY SEEMS
00:07:40.010 --> 00:07:43.250
TO BE CREEPING BACK INTO THE STORY OR YOU GOT
00:07:43.270 --> 00:07:47.170
BETRAYED BY A FRIEND OR THE CLIMATE CHANGED
00:07:47.190 --> 00:07:51.090
AROUND YOU IN SOME WAY, AND THERE YOU ARE GOING
00:07:51.110 --> 00:07:54.210
WHERE IS GOD IN MY LIFE?
00:07:54.230 --> 00:07:56.290
AND I JUST NEED TO GOD, GOD, LIKE ARE YOU
00:07:57.010 --> 00:07:59.070
OUT THERE?
00:07:59.090 --> 00:08:00.230
AND ARE YOU REALLY DOING SOMETHING?
00:08:00.250 --> 00:08:02.120
AND IF YOU DO REALLY LOVE ME, THEN WHY IS ALL
00:08:02.140 --> 00:08:04.100
THIS HAPPENING?
00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:06.020
I MEAN, YOU WERE ALL THE WAY OVER HERE JUST TWO
00:08:06.040 --> 00:08:08.290
WEEKS AGO, YEAH!
00:08:09.010 --> 00:08:15.060
I LOVE YOU, GOD.
00:08:15.080 --> 00:08:15.250
I BELIEVE YOU.
00:08:15.270 --> 00:08:16.130
I TRUST YOU.
00:08:16.150 --> 00:08:17.200
AND I MEAN, THE WIND CHANGED, THE MOMENT
00:08:17.220 --> 00:08:20.040
CHANGED, THE FRIENDS CHANGED, THE CIRCUMSTANCE
00:08:20.060 --> 00:08:23.000
CHANGED, THE SITUATION CHANGED, AND WE'RE LIKE,
00:08:23.020 --> 00:08:26.080
I DON'T KNOW.
00:08:26.100 --> 00:08:27.250
I DON'T KNOW.
00:08:27.270 --> 00:08:29.130
I DON'T KNOW.
00:08:29.150 --> 00:08:30.260
I DON'T REALLY KNOW.
00:08:30.280 --> 00:08:32.170
IF I'M JUST BEING HONEST AND BEING ME AND BEING
00:08:32.190 --> 00:08:34.030
REAL, KEEPING IT REAL, I DON'T KNOW.
00:08:34.050 --> 00:08:36.090
AND WHEN ELIJAH COMES ON THE SCENE, HE'S SPEAKING
00:08:36.110 --> 00:08:39.090
TO GOD'S PEOPLE.
00:08:39.110 --> 00:08:41.120
THIS IS NOT A COMPETITION BETWEEN NON GOD PEOPLE
00:08:41.140 --> 00:08:47.220
AND GOD'S PEOPLE.
00:08:47.240 --> 00:08:50.020
HE'S TALKING TO GOD'S PEOPLE, BUT GOD'S PEOPLE
00:08:50.040 --> 00:08:54.220
HAD A REALLY BAD KING NAMED AHAB, AND WHAT IT
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:58.280
SAYS ABOUT AHAB IS HE DID MORE EVIL IN THE EYES OF
00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:02.180
THE LORD THAN ANY OF THE KINGS THAT CAME
00:09:02.200 --> 00:09:04.230
BEFORE HIM.
00:09:04.250 --> 00:09:06.220
AND THEN HE MARRIED JEZEBEL WHO WAS NOT A GOD
00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:09.140
HONORER, THE ONE TRUE GOD THAT WE'RE HERE
00:09:09.160 --> 00:09:12.170
TO WORSHIP.
00:09:12.190 --> 00:09:14.080
SHE WAS FILLED WITH A DIFFERENT SPIRIT, AND SHE
00:09:14.100 --> 00:09:16.140
ACTUALLY DESPISED THE ANOINTING OF GOD AND THE
00:09:16.160 --> 00:09:19.040
PEOPLE OF GOD, AND SHE PARTICULARLY
00:09:19.060 --> 00:09:21.080
DESPISED ELIJAH.
00:09:21.100 --> 00:09:24.030
SO FOOTNOTE, IF WE'RE GOING TO DO SIDEBAR
00:09:24.050 --> 00:09:26.290
RELATIONSHIP TALK, IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT WHO
00:09:27.010 --> 00:09:30.030
YOU MARRY.
00:09:30.050 --> 00:09:34.230
AND YOU'RE LIKE LOUIE, YOU'RE SAYING YOU'RE
00:09:34.250 --> 00:09:38.210
SPEAKING OVER US THAT WE ARE GOING TO MARRY?
00:09:38.230 --> 00:09:41.120
YES, IT IS THE LORD'S WILL FOR ALMOST EVERYONE
00:09:41.140 --> 00:09:45.210
HERE TO FIND SOMEONE AND TO JOIN YOUR LIVES AS ONE
00:09:45.230 --> 00:09:51.220
FOR THE GLORY OF GOD.
00:09:51.240 --> 00:09:54.220
AND SHE'S OUT THERE.
00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:56.220
SHE'S PROBABLY IN HERE.
00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:58.210
[LAUGHTER]
00:09:58.230 --> 00:10:00.170
YOU WERE AT PASSION?
00:10:00.190 --> 00:10:01.230
OKAY, GREAT.
00:10:01.250 --> 00:10:03.080
WE CAN GO OUT.
00:10:03.100 --> 00:10:04.190
[LAUGHTER]
00:10:04.210 --> 00:10:07.170
THAT'S PROBABLY -- THAT'S A SIMPLE STATEMENT.
00:10:07.190 --> 00:10:10.020
IT IS GOD'S PURPOSE AND PLAN FOR THE VAST
00:10:10.040 --> 00:10:12.090
MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE SITTING IN ROOM TO FIND
00:10:12.110 --> 00:10:14.020
AN AMAZING MAN OF FAITH IN JESUS OR AN AMAZING
00:10:14.040 --> 00:10:19.260
WOMAN OF FAITH IN JESUS TO STAND TOGETHER AT SOME
00:10:19.280 --> 00:10:23.200
POINT AND TO CARE LESS ABOUT THE INSTAGRAMMABLE
00:10:23.220 --> 00:10:28.120
MOMENT AND TO CARE MORE ABOUT THE FACT THAT YOU
00:10:28.140 --> 00:10:31.100
ARE COMMITTING RIGHT THEN AND THERE WE ARE GOING TO
00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:34.030
BE A FLAME THAT BURNS FOR THE RENOWN OF JESUS IN
00:10:34.050 --> 00:10:36.150
OUR LIFETIME, AND WE BELIEVE WE CAN DO IT
00:10:36.170 --> 00:10:39.140
BETTER TOGETHER THAN WE CAN DO IT APART, AND
00:10:39.160 --> 00:10:41.230
THAT'S WHY WE'RE STANDING HERE TODAY.
00:10:41.250 --> 00:10:44.110
AND IF YOU CHOOSE ANY LESS THAN THAT YOU ARE
00:10:44.130 --> 00:10:48.010
NOT CHOOSING GOD'S BEST FOR YOUR LIFE.
00:10:48.030 --> 00:10:51.170
SO IF YOU'RE DATING LESS THAN THAT, IF YOU'RE IN A
00:10:51.190 --> 00:10:54.120
CONVERSATIONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH LESS
00:10:54.140 --> 00:10:57.230
THAN THAT, IF YOU'VE GOT YOUR EYE ON LESS THAN THAT,
00:10:57.250 --> 00:11:01.100
IF YOU'VE ENTERTAINED LESS THAN THAT, YOU NEED
00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:03.260
TO MAKE THAT DECISION TODAY.
00:11:03.280 --> 00:11:07.120
YOU NEED TO DECIDE RIGHT HERE AND RIGHT NOW I
00:11:07.140 --> 00:11:10.050
DON'T DATE PEOPLE THAT I WON'T MARRY, AND I'M NOT
00:11:10.070 --> 00:11:12.020
MARRYING SOMEBODY WHOSE NOT IN LOVE WITH JESUS
00:11:12.040 --> 00:11:14.010
AND ON FIRE FOR THE PURPOSES OF JESUS IN
00:11:14.030 --> 00:11:16.100
MY GENERATION.
00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:18.140
THAT'S A SETTLED ISSUE FOR ME, AND I'LL WAIT
00:11:18.160 --> 00:11:21.200
UNTIL GOD BRINGS THEM.
00:11:21.220 --> 00:11:24.240
BUT WHO YOU MARRY IS GOING TO BE THE BIGGEST
00:11:24.260 --> 00:11:29.110
DETERMINER OF WHETHER YOU GET IN THAT GENEALOGY OF
00:11:29.130 --> 00:11:32.140
WORLD CHANGING, BELIEVING FAITHFUL PEOPLE OR NOT.
00:11:32.160 --> 00:11:39.080
AND AHAB WAS A WICKED MAN, AND HE HAD A MORE
00:11:39.100 --> 00:11:42.040
WICKED WIFE, AND WITH HIM HE TOOK ALL THE
00:11:42.060 --> 00:11:46.270
PEOPLE OF GOD.
00:11:46.290 --> 00:11:49.250
AS THE KING OF ISRAEL, HE ESTABLISHED THE WORSHIP
00:11:49.270 --> 00:11:52.240
OF BAAL, AND HE REVIVED THE ASHERAH POLE, SO
00:11:52.260 --> 00:11:59.000
YOU'VE GOT A FEMALE REPRESENTATION OF AN
00:11:59.020 --> 00:12:02.280
IDOL, AND A MALE REPUTATION OF AN IDOL,
00:12:03.000 --> 00:12:06.100
AND YOU CAN CHECK THOSE OUT, TOO.
00:12:06.120 --> 00:12:10.060
THERE'S A LITTLE BRONZE OF BAAL IN THE LOUVRE IN
00:12:10.080 --> 00:12:12.190
PARIS, AND THE STEEL OF BAAL WHICH IS A RELIEF
00:12:12.210 --> 00:12:16.270
OF BAAL, FOUNDER OF THE TEMPLE OF BAAL IN SYRIA,
00:12:16.290 --> 00:12:20.130
AND YOU SEE THIS GUY AND YOU'RE LIKE, THAT'S NOT
00:12:20.150 --> 00:12:23.160
MY GUY.
00:12:23.180 --> 00:12:27.070
AND WHEN YOU SEE ASHERAH AND ALL THE RELIEFS WE
00:12:27.090 --> 00:12:31.130
HAVE OF HER THROUGH HISTORY YOU'RE LIKE AH,
00:12:31.150 --> 00:12:33.290
AND YOU SEE THE ASHERAH POLE WHICH LOOKS LIKE A
00:12:34.010 --> 00:12:36.220
TREE WITH KIND OF ROOTS SITTING ON THE GROUND
00:12:36.240 --> 00:12:38.240
GOING UP TO THIS THING WITH HORNS ON THE HEAD
00:12:38.260 --> 00:12:40.290
AND YOU'RE LIKE I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S WHAT I'M
00:12:41.010 --> 00:12:44.070
REALLY NEEDING RIGHT NOW, WALKING THROUGH
00:12:44.090 --> 00:12:46.100
THIS WORLD.
00:12:46.120 --> 00:12:48.100
BUT THAT'S WHERE THE PEOPLE OF GOD WERE.
00:12:48.120 --> 00:12:50.250
THEY HAD SOLD OUT THE POSSIBILITY OF A
00:12:50.270 --> 00:12:53.250
RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LIVING GOD AND TRADED IT
00:12:53.270 --> 00:12:57.140
FOR IDOLS THAT THEY HAD MADE WITH THEIR
00:12:57.160 --> 00:13:00.230
OWN HANDS.
00:13:00.250 --> 00:13:03.220
AND AHAB WAS THE RING LEADER OF IT ALL SPURRED
00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:10.120
ON BY HIS EVIL WIFE WHO WAS FUELING HIS EVIL
00:13:10.140 --> 00:13:15.030
THOUGHTS AND INTENTIONS.
00:13:15.050 --> 00:13:19.070
AND GOD SPOKE TO ELIJAH AND SAID, I WANT YOU TO
00:13:19.090 --> 00:13:23.090
SEND A MESSAGE TO AHAB, AND HE DID.
00:13:23.110 --> 00:13:25.210
AND AHAB SHOWED UP MOUNT CARMEL WITH 450 PROPHETS
00:13:25.230 --> 00:13:29.210
OF BAAL AND 450 PROPHETS OF ASHERAH, 850 OF THEM
00:13:29.230 --> 00:13:32.240
PLUS HIM, AND HE SAYS HEY, HERE'S THE THING
00:13:32.260 --> 00:13:35.250
WE'RE GOING TO DO TODAY.
00:13:35.270 --> 00:13:37.180
WE'RE GOING TO GET SACRIFICES READY.
00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:40.000
YOU'RE GOING TO GET ONE AND I'M GOING TO GET ONE,
00:13:40.020 --> 00:13:42.050
AND YOU'RE GOING TO CALL ON YOUR GOD, AND WE'RE
00:13:42.070 --> 00:13:44.120
GOING TO SEE IF YOUR GOD CAN COME DOWN AND LIGHT
00:13:44.140 --> 00:13:46.100
THIS THING ON FIRE.
00:13:46.120 --> 00:13:48.080
AND THEN I'M GOING TO CALL ON MY GOD AND WE'LL
00:13:48.100 --> 00:13:50.050
SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I CALL ON THE ONE TRUE GOD.
00:13:50.070 --> 00:13:52.190
AND I THINK YOU KNOW THE REST OF THAT STORY.
00:13:52.210 --> 00:13:56.010
BUT BEFORE HE DOES ANYTHING, ELIJAH LOOKS AT
00:13:56.030 --> 00:13:58.270
THESE PEOPLE WHO ARE NOW WORSHIPPING IDOLS THEY
00:13:58.290 --> 00:14:01.200
MADE WITH THEIR OWN HANDS, AND HE SAYS, HOW
00:14:01.220 --> 00:14:04.100
LONG WILL YOU WAIVER BETWEEN 2 OPINIONS?
00:14:04.120 --> 00:14:06.220
WE BELIEVE IN THE ONE TRUE GOD.
00:14:06.240 --> 00:14:08.100
WE SAW HIM PART THE RED SEA.
00:14:08.120 --> 00:14:09.250
WE SAW HIM GIVE MANNA FROM THE SKY.
00:14:09.270 --> 00:14:11.200
HE BROUGHT QUAIL TO US IN THE WILDERNESS.
00:14:11.220 --> 00:14:13.090
WATER CAME OUT OF A ROCK.
00:14:13.110 --> 00:14:14.280
WE WALKED AROUND JERICHO AND THE WALLS CAME DOWN.
00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:16.230
WE'VE SEEN MIRACLES HAPPEN AGAIN AND AGAIN
00:14:16.250 --> 00:14:18.160
AND AGAIN.
00:14:18.180 --> 00:14:19.220
THIS IS OUR GOD.
00:14:19.240 --> 00:14:21.030
OH MY GOODNESS.
00:14:21.050 --> 00:14:22.140
CIRCUMSTANCES HAVE CHANGED.
00:14:22.160 --> 00:14:23.190
THE MOOD HAS CHANGED.
00:14:23.210 --> 00:14:25.040
PEOPLE AROUND ME HAVE CHANGED.
00:14:25.060 --> 00:14:26.150
I FEEL LIKE I MIGHT HAVE CHANGED.
00:14:26.170 --> 00:14:27.290
I'M NOT REALLY SURE WHERE I AM WITH GOD.
00:14:28.010 --> 00:14:29.220
OH, BUT WHAT WOW!
00:14:29.240 --> 00:14:30.290
PASSION, AMAZING!
00:14:31.010 --> 00:14:32.140
I BELIEVE IT. I'M IN. COUNT ME IN.
00:14:32.160 --> 00:14:33.250
YOU CAN COUNT ON ME.
00:14:33.270 --> 00:14:35.100
I AM GOING TO FOLLOW YOU ANYWHERE.
00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:37.260
ALL THE SUDDEN PHONE CALL, TEXT, MESSAGE,
00:14:37.280 --> 00:14:40.060
CIRCUMSTANCE, SITUATION, SOMETHING CHANGES, I
00:14:40.080 --> 00:14:42.110
DON'T KNOW IF THERE IS A GOD.
00:14:42.130 --> 00:14:45.170
I GOT TO TEXT MY FRIEND AGAIN.
00:14:45.190 --> 00:14:47.190
MEET ME AT THE COFFEE SHOP.
00:14:47.210 --> 00:14:49.040
I NEED TO TALK, AND THE CONVERSATION ONE MORE
00:14:49.060 --> 00:14:51.240
TIME IS MAN, I DON'T KNOW ABOUT ALL THIS STUFF, AND
00:14:51.260 --> 00:14:54.010
I DON'T KNOW WHERE GOD IS.
00:14:54.030 --> 00:14:57.010
AND GOD IS SAYING TODAY AS WE LEAVE PASSION 2019,
00:14:57.030 --> 00:14:59.270
HAVE YOU SEEN ENOUGH TO STOP WAVERING BETWEEN
00:14:59.290 --> 00:15:03.200
TWO OPINIONS?
00:15:03.220 --> 00:15:05.170
[APPLAUSE]
00:15:05.190 --> 00:15:11.020
HAVE YOU SEEN ENOUGH TO SAY I'M SURE ALL THE
00:15:11.040 --> 00:15:16.180
CIRCUMSTANCES AREN'T GOING TO BE GREAT,
00:15:16.200 --> 00:15:19.170
I'M POSITIVE I'M GOING TO GET A PHONE CALL THAT'S
00:15:19.190 --> 00:15:22.040
GOING TO CHANGE EVERYTHING,
00:15:22.060 --> 00:15:25.010
BUT I AM NOT WAVERING IN WHAT I HAVE ALREADY
00:15:25.030 --> 00:15:29.130
COMMITTED BECAUSE I'VE SEEN ENOUGH TO COMMIT
00:15:29.150 --> 00:15:33.060
THIS LIFE, ODD OR BAD, THE JOY AND THE SORROW
00:15:33.080 --> 00:15:37.200
ALL THE DAYS AND ALL THE JOURNEY TO A GREAT AND
00:15:37.220 --> 00:15:40.090
LIVING GOD?
00:15:40.110 --> 00:15:44.050
IF THE LORD IS GOD, THEN WORSHIP THE LORD, AND IF
00:15:44.070 --> 00:15:47.270
BAAL IS GOD, AND I THINK THE HOLY SPIRIT IS
00:15:47.290 --> 00:15:52.080
ALREADY TELLING US WHAT THE BAALS ARE IN OUR
00:15:52.100 --> 00:15:54.250
WORLD, IN OUR LIVES, IF BAAL IS GOD, THEN
00:15:54.270 --> 00:15:58.160
WORSHIP BAAL.
00:15:58.180 --> 00:16:02.010
IF THAT IDOL, THAT WELL IS GOING TO DO IT FOR
00:16:02.030 --> 00:16:05.170
YOU, THEN WORSHIP THAT, BUT MAKE A DECISION.
00:16:05.190 --> 00:16:13.190
AND I WANT TO ASK THE QUESTION TODAY, HAS
00:16:13.210 --> 00:16:15.210
ANYBODY HERE COME DOWN TO BEDROCK OF BELIEF TO SAY
00:16:15.230 --> 00:16:19.110
I DON'T KNOW ALL THAT'S AHEAD OF ME IN MY LIFE,
00:16:19.130 --> 00:16:23.030
BUT I HAVE FOUND BEDROCK, AND ON THE BEDROCK I'VE
00:16:23.050 --> 00:16:25.270
SEEN ENOUGH TO FROM THIS MOMENT FORWARD STAKE MY
00:16:25.290 --> 00:16:30.250
CLAIM WITH GOD?
00:16:30.270 --> 00:16:35.280
I DON'T NEED ANOTHER COFFEE WITH MY FRIEND TO
00:16:36.000 --> 00:16:41.020
BELIEVE THAT GOD REALLY LOVES ME.
00:16:41.040 --> 00:16:44.000
DO YOU THINK GOD LOVES ME?
00:16:44.020 --> 00:16:47.250
YOU REALLY DO THINK HE LOVES ME?
00:16:47.270 --> 00:16:49.290
CAN YOU TELL ME AGAIN?
00:16:50.010 --> 00:16:51.170
CAN WE MEET BACK HERE AGAIN AND YOU TELL ME
00:16:51.190 --> 00:16:53.040
AGAIN TOMORROW?
00:16:53.060 --> 00:16:54.180
CAN MAYBE WE MEET AGAIN BECAUSE YOU KNOW THINGS
00:16:54.200 --> 00:16:56.060
CHANGED AND CIRCUMSTANCES CHANGED, AND I DON'T KNOW
00:16:56.080 --> 00:16:58.160
IF HE LOVES ME ANYMORE.
00:16:58.180 --> 00:17:00.060
THINGS ARE TOUGH RIGHT NOW AND I DON'T KNOW IF
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:02.120
HE LOVES ME ANYMORE.
00:17:02.140 --> 00:17:04.040
HE DOESN'T LOVE ME, SO I DON'T KNOW IF HE LOVES
00:17:04.060 --> 00:17:06.130
ME ANYMORE.
00:17:06.150 --> 00:17:08.140
OR HAVE YOU SEEN ENOUGH OF JESUS TO GO,
00:17:08.160 --> 00:17:09.220
HE LOVES ME?
00:17:09.240 --> 00:17:14.140
PERIOD. END OF THAT CONVERSATION. DONE.
00:17:14.160 --> 00:17:19.010
[APPLAUSE]
00:17:19.030 --> 00:17:20.190
AND I LOVE YOU, FRIEND, BUT I DON'T NEED YOU TO
00:17:20.210 --> 00:17:22.170
TELL ME AGAIN TODAY THAT I'M A DEARLY LOVED
00:17:22.190 --> 00:17:26.160
DAUGHTER OF A KING.
00:17:26.180 --> 00:17:28.210
I WOKE UP WITH THAT.
00:17:28.230 --> 00:17:32.050
DO WE NEED ANOTHER COFFEE SO THAT WE WILL BELIEVE
00:17:32.070 --> 00:17:35.270
AGAIN THAT GOD IS FOR US, THAT HE HAS TRULY
00:17:35.290 --> 00:17:38.170
FORGIVEN US AND WASHED THE SLATE CLEAN, THAT
00:17:38.190 --> 00:17:40.280
HE'S GOING TO COME THROUGH FOR US, THAT HE
00:17:41.000 --> 00:17:43.230
HAS A PLAN FOR US AND HE WANTS TO USE US?
00:17:43.250 --> 00:17:46.240
DO WE NEED ANOTHER COFFEE SO SOMEONE CAN TELL US
00:17:46.260 --> 00:17:49.140
THAT GOD IS BIG IT BIGGER THAN OUR LOSSES, THAT HE
00:17:49.160 --> 00:17:52.110
HAS EXCHANGED HEAVEN'S BEST FOR US, THAT HE'S
00:17:52.130 --> 00:17:55.070
ALWAYS WORKING WHETHER YOU SEE IT OR NOT, THAT
00:17:55.090 --> 00:17:57.260
HE ALWAYS HAS A PLAN IN MY MIND WHETHER I
00:17:57.280 --> 00:18:00.200
UNDERSTAND WHAT HE'S DOING OR NOT, THAT HE'S
00:18:00.220 --> 00:18:03.050
ALWAYS WORTHY OF WORSHIP NO MATTER WHAT THE SCENE
00:18:03.070 --> 00:18:06.000
IS IN MY LIFE, THAT I AM FREE TO STAND UP AND WALK
00:18:06.020 --> 00:18:11.240
AS A SON AND WALK AS A DAUGHTER OF A KING INTO
00:18:11.260 --> 00:18:15.160
THIS DAY, THAT I CAN GET OVER MYSELF AND I CAN GET
00:18:15.180 --> 00:18:19.140
ABOUT SERVING THE WORLD FOR THE FAME OF JESUS?
00:18:19.160 --> 00:18:22.210
DO I NEED ANOTHER COFFEE SO THAT A FRIEND CAN TELL
00:18:22.230 --> 00:18:26.170
ME THAT AGAIN?
00:18:26.190 --> 00:18:28.140
OR DID I GET DOWN TO BEDROCK AND SAY HEY, I
00:18:28.160 --> 00:18:30.280
DON'T KNOW EVERYTHING, BUT I FOUND SOMETHING
00:18:31.000 --> 00:18:33.020
DOWN AT THE BOTTOM?
00:18:33.040 --> 00:18:35.220
AND FROM THERE I'M GOING TO BUILD MY LIFE.
00:18:35.240 --> 00:18:38.280
I MEAN, IF YOU WENT TO -- DO YOU THINK ANYBODY, DO
00:18:39.000 --> 00:18:41.210
YOU THINK CHRISTINE HURRICANE TO GO TO COFFEE?
00:18:41.230 --> 00:18:48.010
DO YOU THINK CHAD VEACH IS GOING TO COFFEE WITH
00:18:48.030 --> 00:18:50.210
PEOPLE IN LA AND SAYING MAN, WHEN I WOKE UP TODAY
00:18:50.230 --> 00:18:53.250
I JUST DIDN'T KNOW?
00:18:53.270 --> 00:18:56.170
LIKE I DON'T KNOW.
00:18:56.190 --> 00:18:58.140
YOU KNOW, WE HAVE A BEAUTIFUL FAMILY.
00:18:58.160 --> 00:19:00.060
JULIA AND I ARE PLANTING A CHURCH.
00:19:00.080 --> 00:19:01.210
WE HAVE A DAUGHTER WITH SEVERE CHALLENGES, AND I
00:19:01.230 --> 00:19:05.170
JUST DON'T KNOW IF GOD LOVES ME OR NOT.
00:19:05.190 --> 00:19:09.130
YOU'RE LIKE, THAT WOULD BE WEIRD. NO.
00:19:09.150 --> 00:19:14.230
I DON'T THINK GARY HAUGEN IS CALLING SOMEBODY TODAY
00:19:14.250 --> 00:19:16.250
IS GOING, I DON'T KNOW.
00:19:16.270 --> 00:19:19.290
I DON'T KNOW IF GOD'S REALLY CHANGING THE
00:19:20.010 --> 00:19:21.240
WORLD OR NOT.
00:19:21.260 --> 00:19:23.260
WE LOST ANOTHER CASE TODAY IN MALAYSIA AND
00:19:23.280 --> 00:19:26.160
HEY, GOD IS NOT GOD. NO.
00:19:26.180 --> 00:19:31.030
AND IT'S NOT BECAUSE THEY'RE OLDER THAN YOU.
00:19:31.050 --> 00:19:35.190
BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN LIKE THAT A LONG TIME.
00:19:35.210 --> 00:19:40.040
IT'S BECAUSE THEY HIT BEDROCK.
00:19:40.060 --> 00:19:44.020
WHEN THEY HIT BEDROCK, THEY SAID I'M
00:19:44.040 --> 00:19:46.100
GONNA START BUILDING MY LIFE FROM HERE. DOES THAT
00:19:46.120 --> 00:19:49.000
MEAN THAT THE PEOPLE YOU'VE SEEN ON THESE
00:19:49.020 --> 00:19:51.190
STAGES DON'T STRUGGLE? ABSOLUTELY NOT. EVERYBODY
00:19:51.210 --> 00:19:54.230
ON THIS STAGE IS DEALING WITH CANCER, IS DEALING
00:19:54.250 --> 00:19:58.150
WITH BETRAYAL, LOSS, STRUGGLING WITH BEING AN
00:19:58.170 --> 00:20:04.120
ANXIETY OVERCOMER. EVERYONE YOU'VE SEEN UP
00:20:04.140 --> 00:20:10.030
HERE IS STRUGGLING WITH TEMPTATION AND STRUGGLING
00:20:10.050 --> 00:20:15.110
WITH ALL THE SAME THINGS YOU'RE STRUGGLING WITH,
00:20:15.130 --> 00:20:17.220
BUT I WOULD VENTURE TO SAY NO ONE YOU'VE SEEN
00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:20.080
LEADING YOU IS STRUGGLING WITH WHETHER OR NOT GOD
00:20:20.100 --> 00:20:23.020
IS ALWAYS WORKING, ALWAYS WORTHY, WHETHER HE IS
00:20:23.040 --> 00:20:27.160
MAKING US FREE TO WALK, WHETHER HE IS PLANNING
00:20:27.180 --> 00:20:30.220
THINGS FOR OUR LIVES, WHETHER HE WANTS TO USE
00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:33.010
OUR LIVES, WHETHER HE'S GONNA COME THROUGH FOR US
00:20:33.030 --> 00:20:36.050
IF WE TAKE BIG STEPS OF FAITH, WHETHER HE'S FOR
00:20:36.070 --> 00:20:39.010
US, BECAUSE AT SOME POINT THERE WAS A BEDROCK MOMENT.
00:20:39.030 --> 00:20:43.200
FOR ME THIS CAME INTO CLEAR FOCUS A FEW WEEKS AGO.
00:20:43.220 --> 00:20:46.080
WE WERE IN ISRAEL. AND I WOULD LOVE TO ENCOURAGE
00:20:46.100 --> 00:20:49.070
YOU TO GO TO THE HOLY LAND. IF THERE'S ANYTHING
00:20:49.090 --> 00:20:55.010
YOU CAN MUSTER UP ON EARTH AS FAR AS
00:20:55.030 --> 00:20:57.050
GETTING SOME PEOPLE TOGETHER AND GOING
00:20:57.070 --> 00:20:59.220
SOMEWHERE, PLEASE GO TO THE HOLY LAND. IT IS REAL
00:20:59.240 --> 00:21:05.240
AND IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE. WE'VE BEEN GOING
00:21:05.260 --> 00:21:08.210
OVER DECADES, BUT IN THE LAST FEW YEARS, A NEW
00:21:08.230 --> 00:21:13.160
MIND-BLOWING EXPERIENCE HAS HAPPENED. THE FIRST
00:21:13.180 --> 00:21:16.110
ONE THAT HAPPENED WAS AS WE WENT BACK A FEW YEARS
00:21:16.130 --> 00:21:18.220
AGO, WE WENT TO A PLACE CALLED MAGDALA WHICH IS
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:21.010
WHERE MARY MAGDALENE LUNGED FOR THE HEM OF
00:21:21.030 --> 00:21:25.010
JESUS' GARMENT. AND WHEN SHE JUST BARELY
00:21:25.030 --> 00:21:28.060
TOUCHED THE FRINGE OF IT, SHE WAS HEALED, AND JESUS
00:21:28.080 --> 00:21:32.040
SAID POWER WENT OUT FROM ME. THAT PLACE. UP UNTIL
00:21:32.060 --> 00:21:36.120
RECENTLY, NO ONE KNEW WHERE THAT PLACE WAS. CAN
00:21:36.140 --> 00:21:39.140
YOU IMAGINE THAT? MIRACLE WORKING MOMENT AND IT'S
00:21:39.160 --> 00:21:44.050
JUST BURIED UNDER HISTORY. BUT A GUY WAS
00:21:44.070 --> 00:21:47.050
BUILDING A CONVENTION CENTER HOTEL, AND WHEN HE
00:21:47.070 --> 00:21:50.090
DUG TO BUILD THE FOUNDATION, THEY HIT
00:21:50.110 --> 00:21:53.020
SOMETHING. WHEN YOU HIT SOMETHING IN ISRAEL, YOU
00:21:53.040 --> 00:21:55.100
HAVE TO CALL SOMEBODY. THEY CALL THE ANTIQUITIES
00:21:55.120 --> 00:21:57.230
PEOPLE IN. THEY DID A FEW LITTLE SAMPLE TESTS. THEY
00:21:57.250 --> 00:22:01.140
SAID HEY, YOU GUYS GOTTA STOP DIGGING FOR YOUR
00:22:01.160 --> 00:22:04.110
CONVENTION CENTER HOTEL. WE'RE GONNA DIG AROUND A
00:22:04.130 --> 00:22:07.120
LITTLE BIT. AND GUESS WHAT? THEY DUG UP THE
00:22:07.140 --> 00:22:10.180
TOWN OF MAGDALA. AND WHEN WE WENT TO MAGDALA,
00:22:10.200 --> 00:22:15.020
HERE'S SOME OF THE HOUSES, HERE'S WHERE THE
00:22:15.040 --> 00:22:17.150
WEALTHY PEOPLE LIVE, HERE'S THE MARKET, ALL
00:22:17.170 --> 00:22:19.160
THIS ARCHAEOLOGICAL DISPLAY THAT YOU CAN SEE,
00:22:19.180 --> 00:22:22.260
AND HERE'S THE SYNAGOGUE IN MAGDALA. FIRST CENTURY
00:22:22.280 --> 00:22:27.240
SYNAGOGUE! AND IF JESUS TAUGHT IN ALL THE
00:22:27.260 --> 00:22:30.220
SYNAGOGUES IN HIS REGION, HE WOULD HAVE TAUGHT IN
00:22:30.240 --> 00:22:34.090
THIS ONE. AND YOU CAN GO THERE WITH YOUR OWN EYES
00:22:34.110 --> 00:22:38.000
AND STARE AT THE EXCAVATED, ORIGINAL,
00:22:38.020 --> 00:22:42.260
FIRST CENTURY FLOOR OF THE SYNAGOGUE IN MAGDALA.
00:22:42.280 --> 00:22:48.000
YOU WILL TAKE THIS PHOTO THAT I TOOK OF THAT
00:22:48.020 --> 00:22:51.220
FLOOR, AND YOU WILL KNOW THAT IT IS VERY LIKELY--
00:22:51.240 --> 00:22:56.040
AND NO ONE SAYS A HUNDRED PERCENT ANYTHING IN
00:22:56.060 --> 00:22:58.180
ISRAEL, AND IT DOESN'T MATTER REALLY BECAUSE
00:22:58.200 --> 00:23:00.210
YOU'RE WITHIN INCHES. IT IS VERY LIKELY THE FEET
00:23:00.230 --> 00:23:04.100
OF YOUR SAVIOR WALKED ON THAT FLOOR. AND IT WAS
00:23:04.120 --> 00:23:10.260
UNDERGROUND SINCE EARLY ANCIENT TIMES UNTIL A GUY
00:23:10.280 --> 00:23:17.170
BUILT A CONVENTION CENTER HOTEL, WHICH IS AS FAR
00:23:17.190 --> 00:23:21.270
FROM WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT AS THOSE STAIRS ARE
00:23:21.290 --> 00:23:25.050
FROM ME, THEY BUILT THE HOTEL. IN THE OLD CITY,
00:23:25.070 --> 00:23:30.130
WE DID AN EVENT IN DAVID'S CITADEL. IT LOOKS
00:23:30.150 --> 00:23:33.190
LIKE A CASTLE-Y KIND OF THING BUILT ON WHAT WOULD
00:23:33.210 --> 00:23:36.070
HAVE BEEN HEROD'S PALACE. AND UP ON STREET LEVEL,
00:23:36.090 --> 00:23:41.160
YOU KIND OF WIND YOUR WAY DOWN INTO THE LOWER
00:23:41.180 --> 00:23:43.090
LEVEL. WE DID AN EVENT IN THERE WITH OUR WHOLE
00:23:43.110 --> 00:23:45.270
CREW, WORSHIP NIGHT. IT WAS AMAZING. BUT UP ON
00:23:45.290 --> 00:23:48.130
STREET LEVEL, THEY WERE GONNA BUILD A TOURISM
00:23:48.150 --> 00:23:50.230
OFFICE. SO IT'S ISRAEL, THEY THOUGHT WE'RE GONNA
00:23:50.250 --> 00:23:53.260
REMODEL, SPEND A COUPLE HUNDRED GRAND, BUT BEFORE
00:23:53.280 --> 00:23:55.290
WE DO THAT, WE SHOULD DIG AROUND A LITTLE BIT AND
00:23:56.010 --> 00:23:59.060
SEE WHAT'S DOWN THERE. SO THEY STARTED DIGGING A
00:23:59.080 --> 00:24:02.030
LITTLE BIT, AND THEY SAID WOW, OKAY THERE'S SOME
00:24:02.050 --> 00:24:03.280
STUFF. WE SHOULD DIG A LITTLE FURTHER. THEY SAID OH,
00:24:04.000 --> 00:24:05.270
THERE'S MORE STUFF, SO THEY DUG A LITTLE
00:24:05.290 --> 00:24:07.180
FURTHER. THEY SAID WELL THERE'S SOME MORE STUFF,
00:24:07.200 --> 00:24:09.130
SO THEY KEPT DIGGING MORE. SOME MORE STUFF,
00:24:09.150 --> 00:24:11.120
MORE STUFF, MORE STUFF. THIS WAS JUST LIKE TWO
00:24:11.140 --> 00:24:13.180
YEARS AGO. THEY DUG THROUGH 2.100 YEARS OF
00:24:13.200 --> 00:24:19.070
HISTORY. SO YOU GO AROUND DAVID'S CITADEL, YOU GO
00:24:19.090 --> 00:24:24.120
UP THESE STAIRS, IN A DOOR, IN A THING THAT'S
00:24:24.140 --> 00:24:27.000
LIKE AN INDOOR CAVERNOUS THING. YOU GO DOWN THE
00:24:27.020 --> 00:24:30.190
STAIRS, AND DOWN SOME MORE, AND DOWN SOME MORE,
00:24:30.210 --> 00:24:33.060
AND DOWN SOME MORE, AND MORE TO WHERE YOU'RE
00:24:33.080 --> 00:24:34.250
WALKING ON A METAL PLANK THAT YOU CAN SEE THROUGH,
00:24:34.270 --> 00:24:37.140
AND WHEN YOU WALK TO THE END OF IT, THE PERSON
00:24:37.160 --> 00:24:39.210
WITH YOU SAYS RIGHT THERE, YOU SEE THAT WALL
00:24:39.230 --> 00:24:42.250
RIGHT THERE THAT IS EXCAVATED? THAT IS THE
00:24:42.270 --> 00:24:44.290
ORIGINAL WALL OF THE TEMPLE OF JERUSALEM THAT
00:24:45.010 --> 00:24:48.250
HEZEKIAH BUILT. AND YOU SEE THAT LITTLE WALL
00:24:48.270 --> 00:24:54.110
RIGHT THERE THAT'S EXCAVATED, THAT PIECE
00:24:54.130 --> 00:24:56.160
RIGHT THERE? THAT'S HEROD'S WALL WHERE HE
00:24:56.180 --> 00:24:58.060
EXPANDED THE CITY. AND YOU JUST CAME DOWN THE
00:24:58.080 --> 00:25:01.160
STAIRS THROUGH THE CRUSADERS, AND THE
00:25:01.180 --> 00:25:04.010
OTTOMANS, AND THE HASMONEANS, AND THE
00:25:04.030 --> 00:25:07.000
HERODIANS. AND THERE'S A PLACE THERE WHERE YOU CAN
00:25:07.020 --> 00:25:10.000
SEE HOW THE SEWER SYSTEM WORKED IN THE OLD CITY OF
00:25:10.020 --> 00:25:13.270
JERUSALEM, AND YOU CAN SHINE YOUR LIGHT OF YOUR
00:25:13.290 --> 00:25:17.070
PHONE DOWN INTO THE HOLE AND SEE THE BEDROCK UNDER
00:25:17.090 --> 00:25:23.280
THE CITY OF JERUSALEM. THEN THEY STOPPED DIGGING
00:25:24.000 --> 00:25:26.240
RIGHT THERE BECAUSE THAT'S THE BEDROCK.
00:25:26.260 --> 00:25:33.170
AND THERE'S A STRONG VIEWPOINT NOW THAT
00:25:33.190 --> 00:25:36.180
BELIEVES THAT IN THIS AREA BETWEEN THESE WALLS--
00:25:36.200 --> 00:25:41.170
YOU KNOW, THE CITY YOU'LL VISIT IS WAY UP THERE.
00:25:41.190 --> 00:25:45.150
IN THIS AREA BETWEEN THESE WALLS IS
00:25:45.170 --> 00:25:47.090
WHERE PILATE SAID DO YOU WANT ME TO RELEASE
00:25:47.110 --> 00:25:50.040
BARABBAS OR DO YOU WANT ME TO RELEASE JESUS?
00:25:50.060 --> 00:26:00.040
GOD WANTS YOU TO GET TO BEDROCK. AND I WANT TO
00:26:00.060 --> 00:26:08.050
SAY A COUPLE OF THINGS ABOUT THAT AS WE CLOSE.
00:26:08.070 --> 00:26:10.240
NUMBER ONE, GOD IS NOT INTIMIDATED
00:26:10.260 --> 00:26:15.100
BY YOUR INVESTIGATION.
00:26:15.120 --> 00:26:19.240
SOMEBODY SHOULD HAVE AMENED THAT AT A CHRISTIAN CONFERENCE.
00:26:19.260 --> 00:26:25.170
I FEEL LIKE WE SHOW UP HERE, WE GET THESE AMAZING MESSAGES
00:26:25.190 --> 00:26:28.050
AND EVERYBODY GOES OKAY, YEAH, GREAT, BUT I'VE GOT
00:26:28.070 --> 00:26:31.040
QUESTIONS, LOUIE. I HAVE A SCIENTIFIC MIND. I'M A
00:26:31.060 --> 00:26:34.050
NUCLEAR PHYSICIST. I'M STUDYING TO BE AN
00:26:34.070 --> 00:26:36.180
ENGINEER. I'M IN MOLECULAR BIOLOGY. I AM
00:26:36.200 --> 00:26:40.240
OUT HERE IN THE ARTS COMMUNITY, AND THERE ARE
00:26:40.260 --> 00:26:44.000
A MILLION QUESTIONS ABOUT LIFE AND EXISTENCE AND
00:26:44.020 --> 00:26:48.100
FAITH, AND THAT'S MY WORLD, AND THAT'S THE WAY
00:26:48.120 --> 00:26:53.210
MY MIND WORKS, AND I DO LOVE JESUS BUT I'VE GOT A
00:26:53.230 --> 00:26:56.140
LOT OF QUESTIONS. WELL, AT PASSION, I'D LIKE YOU
00:26:56.160 --> 00:26:59.260
TO KNOW WE'RE NOT HERE TO SAY WELL YOU'RE JUST
00:26:59.280 --> 00:27:01.250
GONNA HAVE TO TABLE ALL YOUR QUESTIONS AND JUST
00:27:01.270 --> 00:27:04.290
JUMP OUT INTO THE ABYSS BECAUSE THAT'S NOT BEDROCK,
00:27:05.010 --> 00:27:11.250
AND YOU WILL NOT BE A WORLD CHANGER FOR JESUS.
00:27:11.270 --> 00:27:14.240
SO WHAT GOD IS SAYING IS TODAY COME WITH
00:27:14.260 --> 00:27:17.120
WHATEVER QUESTIONS YOU'VE GOT BECAUSE A. I GOT MORE
00:27:17.140 --> 00:27:20.130
BIBLICAL CITIES UNDERGROUND RIGHT NOW.
00:27:20.150 --> 00:27:24.260
WOULDN'T THAT BE GREAT TO BE GOD? NO, DON'T PUT THE
00:27:24.280 --> 00:27:27.130
HOTEL THERE, PUT IT OVER THERE. I DON'T KNOW WHY,
00:27:27.150 --> 00:27:29.060
BUT WE TRIED TO GET A DEED THING FOR HERE, AND
00:27:29.080 --> 00:27:31.010
IT DIDN'T WORK OUT. THEN WE GOT THIS OTHER PIECE
00:27:31.030 --> 00:27:33.040
OF LAND HERE, AND WE HEATED IT BECAUSE IT WAS
00:27:33.060 --> 00:27:35.110
A BETTER VIEW OF THE SEA OF GALILEE, AND WE ALREADY BOOKED
00:27:35.130 --> 00:27:37.230
IN OUR MINDS THAT WE COULD SELL THOSE ROOMS. NOW WE'RE
00:27:37.250 --> 00:27:40.160
OVER HERE BECAUSE THE GUY FROM HONG KONG WOULDN'T
00:27:40.180 --> 00:27:42.200
SELL US TO THE GUY IN NEW YORK, AND IT WAS ALL TIED UP
00:27:42.220 --> 00:27:45.000
IN A TRUST AND FUND, NOW WE'RE DIGGING OVER HERE.
00:27:45.020 --> 00:27:46.290
THAT'S BECAUSE GOD IS SAYING YOU'RE DIGGING OVER THERE
00:27:47.010 --> 00:27:48.240
BECAUSE IT'S TIME FOR EVERYBODY TO SEE MAGDALA.
00:27:48.260 --> 00:27:51.060
I'VE GOT MAGDALA ON THE RADAR FOR THIS YEAR. I'VE
00:27:51.080 --> 00:27:53.160
GOT FIRST CENTURY SYNAGOGUE ON THE RADAR
00:27:53.180 --> 00:27:55.140
FOR THIS YEAR. I'VE GOT ANTIQUITIES THAT NEED TO
00:27:55.160 --> 00:27:57.250
BE UNCOVERED BECAUSE THERE'S A STORY OF JESUS
00:27:57.270 --> 00:28:01.040
THAT IS TRUE, AND IT IS NOT GONNA BE SHUT DOWN BY
00:28:01.060 --> 00:28:04.200
ANY INVESTIGATION, OR ANY ARAEOLOGY, OR ANY
00:28:04.220 --> 00:28:08.060
QUESTIONING, OR ANY DIGGING. IT'S ONLY GONNA
00:28:08.080 --> 00:28:11.210
BE VALIDATED THE MORE YOU DIG. HE'S LIKE ALL RIGHT,
00:28:11.230 --> 00:28:18.250
YEAH, DIG, GET THE BACKHOE, YES! THE BACKHOE
00:28:18.270 --> 00:28:22.250
IS OUT! CLUNK! THEY FOUND IT! DUDES STARTS SHOWING
00:28:22.270 --> 00:28:30.230
UP, LADIES START SHOWING UP WITH BRUSHES AND
00:28:30.250 --> 00:28:32.290
BUCKETS, AND THEY PULL TENTS OVERHEAD FOR THE SUN
00:28:33.010 --> 00:28:36.080
AND HE'S LIKE AH! YES! ALL RIGHT, GOOD.
00:28:36.100 --> 00:28:41.150
LET'S GO TO THE KEY. LET'S START WITH THE
00:28:41.170 --> 00:28:44.120
TOURISM OFFICE. BUT BEFORE WE REMODEL, LET'S
00:28:44.140 --> 00:28:48.210
GO DOWN 2100 YEARS TO THE BEDROCK SO THAT LOUIE CAN
00:28:48.230 --> 00:28:54.010
COME IN THERE WITH HIS CREW AND GO WOW. ALL THE
00:28:54.030 --> 00:29:01.090
STORIES ARE TRUE. CHECK THIS OUT IN JOHN 20.
00:29:01.110 --> 00:29:09.080
I CLOSE WITH THIS. IT SAYS IN VERSE 19, "ON THE
00:29:09.100 --> 00:29:13.060
EVENING OF THE FIRST DAY OF THE WEEK WHEN THE
00:29:13.080 --> 00:29:15.150
DISCIPLES WERE TOGETHER, WITH THE DOORS LOCKED FOR
00:29:15.170 --> 00:29:19.270
FEAR OF THE JEWS." ANYBODY STILL GOT YOUR DOORS
00:29:19.290 --> 00:29:21.220
LOCKED HERE? "JESUS CAME AND STOOD AMONG THEM AND
00:29:21.240 --> 00:29:29.000
SAID 'PEACE BE WITH YOU.'" WHY DID HE SAY THIS?
00:29:29.020 --> 00:29:35.120
BECAUSE THEY HAD THEIR DOORS LOCKED AND HE CAME
00:29:35.140 --> 00:29:39.010
AND STOOD AMONG THEM, MEANING HE CAME THROUGH
00:29:39.030 --> 00:29:43.080
THE WALL. THUS, PEACE BE WITH YOU.
00:29:43.100 --> 00:29:53.100
I KNOW I JUST CAME THROUGH THE WALL, BUT IT'S OKAY.
00:29:53.120 --> 00:30:01.280
"AND AFTER HE SAID THIS, HE SHOWED THEM HIS HANDS AND
00:30:02.000 --> 00:30:05.020
SIDE. THE DISCIPLES WERE OVERJOYED..." I DON'T EVEN
00:30:05.040 --> 00:30:09.200
KNOW WHY THAT VERSE IS IN THE BIBLE. IT'S LIKE
00:30:09.220 --> 00:30:11.150
YEAH, WE ALL ASSUMED THAT. "...WHEN THEY SAW THE
00:30:11.170 --> 00:30:15.050
LORD." SO THAT'S ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE "DUH" VERSES
00:30:15.070 --> 00:30:18.120
FOR ME. IT'S LIKE I HOPE SO! IF THIS HADN'T GONE
00:30:18.140 --> 00:30:21.230
DOWN LIKE OH, MAN, LOOK AT THOSE SCARS IN YOUR WRIST!
00:30:21.250 --> 00:30:26.260
WANT TO HAVE COFFEE? [LAUGHTER]
00:30:33.090 --> 00:30:36.060
I'M NOT FEELING GOOD ABOUT THIS WHOLE CRUCIFIXION
00:30:36.080 --> 00:30:38.150
THING, THE GUARDS, THE EARTHQUAKE, IT GOT DARK,
00:30:38.170 --> 00:30:42.220
JEWS ARE AFTER US.
00:30:42.240 --> 00:30:46.150
NO, THEY WERE OVERJOYED.
00:30:46.170 --> 00:30:49.260
"AND AGAIN, JESUS SAID PEACE BE WITH YOU. AS THE
00:30:52.270 --> 00:30:55.270
FATHER HAS--" CAN YOU SAY THIS WORD WITH ME, "AS THE
00:30:55.290 --> 00:30:57.290
FATHER HAS SENT ME, I AM WHAT? SENDING YOU. AND
00:30:58.010 --> 00:31:06.220
WITH THAT, HE BREATHED ON THEM AND HE SAID
00:31:06.240 --> 00:31:10.100
RECEIVE THE HOLY SPIRIT."
00:31:10.120 --> 00:31:15.200
SO WHEN ELIJAH PUT DOWN THE QUESTION HOW LONG
00:31:15.220 --> 00:31:18.220
YOU GONNA KEEP GOING
00:31:18.240 --> 00:31:20.000
BACK AND FORTH, AND BACK AND FORTH, AND BACK AND
00:31:20.020 --> 00:31:23.060
FORTH, AND BACK AND FORTH. IS IT GONNA TAKE
00:31:23.080 --> 00:31:25.170
UNTIL YOU ARE A SENIOR IN COLLEGE BEFORE YOU SAY
00:31:25.190 --> 00:31:29.230
THE IDOLS DON'T WORK, THE BAALS ARE EMPTY, THE
00:31:29.250 --> 00:31:33.050
ASHERAH POLE DOESN'T DO IT FOR ME! I AM DONE WITH
00:31:33.070 --> 00:31:38.240
THE WORLD, AND I AM ALL IN FOR JESUS! IS IT GONNA
00:31:38.260 --> 00:31:43.170
TAKE UNTIL YOU'RE A SENIOR TO DO THAT?
00:31:43.190 --> 00:31:47.050
AND THEN YOU SAY, MAN, I JUST LOST WHAT? MY WHOLE
00:31:47.070 --> 00:31:54.210
SOPHOMORE YEAR IS IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR OF ME
00:31:54.230 --> 00:32:00.210
GOING BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN TWO OPINIONS.
00:32:00.230 --> 00:32:03.100
I KEPT GOING BACK TO THAT RELATIONSHIP AND THEN TO
00:32:03.120 --> 00:32:05.200
JESUS, BACK TO THAT GUY AGAIN AND THEN TO JESUS.
00:32:05.220 --> 00:32:08.070
AND BACK TO THOSE PARTIES AGAIN AND THEN TO JESUS.
00:32:08.090 --> 00:32:11.070
AND BACK TO. WHEN ELIJAH SAID, THEY CRIED OUT ALL
00:32:11.090 --> 00:32:19.030
DAY. HE MOCKED THEM. NOT VERY MATURE PROPHETIC MAN
00:32:19.050 --> 00:32:24.060
BUT ELIJAH HAD HAD IT. MAYBE HE'S ASLEEP!
00:32:24.080 --> 00:32:30.010
CALL OUT A LITTLE LOUDER! NOTHING?
00:32:30.030 --> 00:32:34.120
OH, DON'T YOU HATE THAT?! [LAUGHTER]
00:32:34.140 --> 00:32:38.230
WHEN IT CAME TIME FOR THE EVENING SACRIFICE,
00:32:40.180 --> 00:32:42.120
HE SAID JUST DRENCH THIS BABY. FILL UP THE POTS.
00:32:42.140 --> 00:32:47.010
DRENCH IT. DRENCH THE ALTAR, DRENCH THE SACRIFICE,
00:32:47.030 --> 00:32:50.140
DIG A TRENCH AROUND IT,
00:32:50.160 --> 00:32:53.000
FILL IT UP WITH WATER. THERE'S GONNA BE NO
00:32:53.020 --> 00:32:55.120
HOUDINI IN THIS BUSINESS. YOU SOAK THIS
00:32:55.140 --> 00:32:58.100
THING DOWN AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE! AND ALL THE
00:32:58.120 --> 00:33:02.090
PROPHETS OF BAAL AND ASHERAH, THEY'RE ALL HOARSE
00:33:02.110 --> 00:33:04.120
AND LARYNGITIS BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN SCREAMING
00:33:04.140 --> 00:33:07.140
FOR A WHOLE DAY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT HE'S DOING,
00:33:07.160 --> 00:33:09.130
HE SAID PUT A LITTLE WATER ON EVERYTHING.
00:33:09.150 --> 00:33:11.260
ELIJAH SAID IF YOU'RE THE TRUE GOD,
00:33:11.280 --> 00:33:13.120
THE ONE TRUE GOD, IF YOU'RE THE GOD I BELIEVE
00:33:13.140 --> 00:33:17.090
YOU ARE, THEN GET YOUR GLORY,
00:33:17.110 --> 00:33:22.180
AND FIRE FELL FROM HEAVEN.
00:33:22.200 --> 00:33:28.040
IT DIDN'T CONSUME JUST THE BOWL THAT HE HAD
00:33:28.060 --> 00:33:30.190
CUT UP AND PUT ON THE ALTAR. IT BURNED UP THE
00:33:30.210 --> 00:33:34.110
BOWL, IT BURNED ALL THE WOOD, IT LICKED UP AND
00:33:34.130 --> 00:33:41.120
VAPORIZED ALL THE WATER IN THE TRENCH. THERE WAS
00:33:41.140 --> 00:33:46.110
JUST A BLACK MARK WHERE GOD HAD COME DOWN IN HOLY
00:33:46.130 --> 00:33:55.000
FIRE AND CONSUMED IT ALL. AND THEN YOU FAST FORWARD
00:33:55.020 --> 00:34:00.160
TO THIS ONE THAT THEY KEPT SAYING IS HE ELIJAH,
00:34:00.180 --> 00:34:02.280
THIS GUY WALKING ON THE WATER. IS HE ELIJAH, HE'S
00:34:03.000 --> 00:34:05.100
CALLING OUT DEMONS. IS HE ELIJAH, THE ONE HEALING
00:34:05.120 --> 00:34:07.130
THE SICK, RAISING THE DEAD, TEACHING THE TRUTH,
00:34:07.150 --> 00:34:09.220
MULTIPLYING THE FOOD, IS HE ELIJAH? WHO IS THIS
00:34:09.240 --> 00:34:12.280
GUY? AND THEN HE COMES THROUGH THE WALL AND SAYS
00:34:13.000 --> 00:34:15.160
DON'T BE AFRAID, BUT ALSO KNOW THIS, I'M SENDING YOU
00:34:15.180 --> 00:34:18.190
OUT, BUT YOU'RE GONNA NEED TO STOP WAVERING BETWEEN
00:34:18.210 --> 00:34:21.220
TWO OPINIONS SO THAT THE FIRE OF HEAVEN CAN FALL
00:34:21.240 --> 00:34:24.160
ON YOUR LIFE AND CONSUME EVERY DOUBT, EVERY
00:34:24.180 --> 00:34:27.070
QUESTION, EVERYTHING IN THE PAST, AND YOU CAN
00:34:27.090 --> 00:34:29.210
MOVE FORWARD WITH GOD.
00:34:29.230 --> 00:34:34.210
BEDROCK. HAVE YOU FOUND BEDROCK?
00:34:34.230 --> 00:34:38.290
BUT LISTEN TO THIS. A WEEK LATER--
00:34:39.010 --> 00:34:47.040
EXCUSE ME, I JUMPED DOWN TOO FAR. 24, "NOW THOMAS--"
00:34:47.060 --> 00:34:51.090
CLOSING WITH THIS. "--CALLED DIDYMUS--" OKAY, THEN WHY
00:34:51.110 --> 00:34:55.220
DID HE CALL HIM DIDYMUS? I HAVE QUESTIONS.
00:34:55.240 --> 00:35:03.070
"ONE OF THE TWELVE WAS NOT WITH THE DISCIPLES
00:35:03.090 --> 00:35:05.210
WHEN JESUS CAME."
00:35:05.230 --> 00:35:07.080
WHAT A FOMO MOMENT WAS THAT?
00:35:07.100 --> 00:35:12.220
I RAN DOWN TO GET A LOAF OF BREAD.
00:35:12.240 --> 00:35:16.130
I'M THE ONE OUT HERE WITH BOLD COURAGE.
00:35:16.150 --> 00:35:18.060
THEY'RE ALL LOCKED UP IN THE HOUSE IN FEAR.
00:35:18.080 --> 00:35:19.240
I'M THE ONE OUT HERE LIKE WILLING TO BE OUTSIDE.
00:35:19.260 --> 00:35:23.130
I GET BACK. DIDYMUS. THOMAS.
00:35:23.150 --> 00:35:29.290
FAST FORWARD. HURRY, GET IN HERE, CLOSE THE DOOR,
00:35:30.010 --> 00:35:32.120
LOCK THE DOOR. YOU'RE NOT GONNA BELIEVE WHAT JUST
00:35:32.140 --> 00:35:34.130
HAPPENED WHILE YOU WENT TO GET BREAD, BRO. JESUS
00:35:34.150 --> 00:35:37.020
CAME HERE THROUGH THAT WALL RIGHT THERE. AND
00:35:37.040 --> 00:35:39.200
EVERYBODY'S LIKE THE WALL. THE WALL.
00:35:39.220 --> 00:35:42.180
[LAUGHTER]
00:35:42.200 --> 00:35:46.040
THOMAS IS LIKE HUH? HE'S ALIVE!
00:35:46.060 --> 00:35:55.160
OH, MARY HAD SEEN HIM, BUT THEY HADN'T. THEY'D SEEN
00:35:56.220 --> 00:36:01.040
AN EMPTY TOMB, BUT IT WASN'T UNTIL HE CAME
00:36:01.060 --> 00:36:03.010
THROUGH THAT WALL THAT THEY WENT ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
00:36:03.030 --> 00:36:11.080
THOMAS, HE IS LIKE YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.
00:36:11.100 --> 00:36:18.030
"AND THEN HE SAID TO THEM UNLESS I SEE THE NAIL
00:36:18.050 --> 00:36:22.070
MARKS IN HIS HANDS AND PUT MY FINGERS
00:36:22.090 --> 00:36:26.270
WHERE THE NAILS WERE AND PUT MY HAND INTO HIS
00:36:26.290 --> 00:36:34.110
SIDE, I WILL NOT BELIEVE IT. YOU BELIEVE IT? YOU
00:36:34.130 --> 00:36:39.130
SAW HIM? YOU SAW HIM? YOU SAW HIM? Y'ALL SAW HIM?
00:36:39.150 --> 00:36:43.260
SWEAR? Y'ALL SWEAR? YOU SWEAR? SWEAR, EVERYBODY
00:36:43.280 --> 00:36:48.230
SWEARS YOU SAW HIM. I STILL DON'T BELIEVE IT.
00:36:48.250 --> 00:36:51.110
SO IF YOU'RE IN THIS GATHERING AND YOU'RE LIKE
00:36:51.130 --> 00:36:53.010
I'M ONE OF 40.000 PEOPLE HERE. I'VE HEARD IT ALL,
00:36:53.030 --> 00:36:55.200
I'VE SEEN IT ALL, I'VE WITNESSED IT ALL, I'VE
00:36:55.220 --> 00:36:57.150
BEEN HERE FOR IT ALL; I'M NOT AGAINST IT, BUT HEY,
00:36:57.170 --> 00:36:59.260
I JUST STILL DON'T BELIEVE IT. WELL, I WANT
00:36:59.280 --> 00:37:04.130
YOU TO KNOW YOU'RE WELCOME HERE BECAUSE THE
00:37:04.150 --> 00:37:07.190
GOD OF HEAVEN DOES NOT DESPISE YOUR
00:37:07.210 --> 00:37:12.080
INVESTIGATION BECAUSE HE KNOWS DOWN AT THE BOTTOM
00:37:12.100 --> 00:37:15.280
OF ALL YOUR QUESTIONS, HE IS ETERNALLY GOD. MAN, I
00:37:16.000 --> 00:37:20.210
LOVE THAT. NOW YOU CAN'T USE ALL YOUR QUESTIONS AS
00:37:20.230 --> 00:37:23.190
A STRAW MAN. HE'S NOT GONNA HELP YOU WITH THAT
00:37:23.210 --> 00:37:27.010
JOURNEY. BUT IF YOU'VE GOT HONEST QUESTIONS AND
00:37:27.030 --> 00:37:30.000
AN OPEN HEART, HE'S GONNA LEAD YOU TO THE TRUTH.
00:37:30.020 --> 00:37:33.290
SO YOU DON'T NEED TO BE AFRAID. YOU DON'T NEED TO
00:37:34.010 --> 00:37:36.030
BE AFRAID OF WHAT ANYBODY IN YOUR CLASSROOM SAYS.
00:37:36.050 --> 00:37:39.060
YOU DON'T NEED TO BE AFRAID OF SOME ARTICLE
00:37:39.080 --> 00:37:40.180
YOU STUMBLED ON ONLINE WHERE SOME THEOLOGIAN
00:37:40.200 --> 00:37:43.070
EXPLAINED TO YOU WHY NOTHING YOU BELIEVE IS
00:37:43.090 --> 00:37:45.160
TRUE. AND I'LL TELL YOU WHY, BECAUSE WHEN YOU DIG
00:37:45.180 --> 00:37:49.110
DOWN TO THE BOTTOM OF IT ALL, IT IS GONNA BE ALL
00:37:49.130 --> 00:37:52.050
TRUE, BUT ON TOP OF THAT, YOU'VE GOT A CHANGED LIFE
00:37:52.070 --> 00:37:54.210
AND A STORY TO TELL, AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE
00:37:54.230 --> 00:37:56.140
RAVI ZACHARIAS TO WALK BACK ON YOUR CAMPUS. YOU
00:37:56.160 --> 00:37:58.280
JUST HAVE TO BE THE WOMAN AT THE WELL TO WALK BACK
00:37:59.000 --> 00:38:00.280
ON YOUR CAMPUS. [APPLAUSE]
00:38:01.000 --> 00:38:03.040
AND SAY I'VE GOT AN IRREFUTABLE ARGUMENT, AND THE
00:38:03.060 --> 00:38:07.110
IRREFUTABLE ARGUMENT IS I DON'T KNOW HOW TO EXPLAIN
00:38:07.130 --> 00:38:11.050
HOW GENESIS FITS WITH MY MOLECULAR BIOLOGY SEMINAR
00:38:11.070 --> 00:38:14.190
I JUST WENT TO, BUT I KNOW THIS, MY PARENTS
00:38:14.210 --> 00:38:16.280
SPLIT UP AND IT SHATTERED MY LIFE. MY DAD WALKED
00:38:17.000 --> 00:38:20.030
AWAY, AND IT CAUSED ME TO LIVE WITH A LIMP AND GO
00:38:20.050 --> 00:38:22.160
INTO A HOLE OF DEPRESSION, BUT I MET A
00:38:22.180 --> 00:38:24.120
MAN NAMED JESUS, AND HE SPOKE GRACE AND MERCY AND
00:38:24.140 --> 00:38:26.270
TRUTH AND FORGIVENESS AND LIFE OVER ME, AND
00:38:26.290 --> 00:38:29.060
SOMETHING CHANGED INSIDE OF ME. AND WHEN IT
00:38:29.080 --> 00:38:31.110
CHANGED INSIDE OF ME, I BLOSSOMED AND BLOOMED
00:38:31.130 --> 00:38:33.230
AGAIN AS A DAUGHTER, AS A SON OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD,
00:38:33.250 --> 00:38:36.250
AND I'M TELLING YOU, IT CHANGED ME. AND ABOUT TWO
00:38:36.270 --> 00:38:41.230
MONTHS LATER, YOUR DORM MATE SAYS WHAT HAPPENED
00:38:41.250 --> 00:38:43.240
TO YOU? YOU'RE NOT NEAR AS DEPRESSED AS YOU WERE
00:38:43.260 --> 00:38:48.190
LAST SEMESTER. THAT'S RIGHT. I MET A MAN AT THE
00:38:48.210 --> 00:38:52.160
WELL, AND HE TOLD ME EVERYTHING THAT WAS TRUE
00:38:52.180 --> 00:38:55.110
ABOUT ME. THE MOST UNLIKELY TESTIMONY YOU'LL
00:38:55.130 --> 00:38:59.160
EVER HEAR. THIS GUY'S AWESOME. HE KNOWS ALL
00:38:59.180 --> 00:39:03.050
YOUR STUFF. BUT IT'S IN THE KNOWING THAT WE
00:39:03.070 --> 00:39:07.280
DISCOVER THAT WE FIND THE HEALING. SO LISTEN TO
00:39:08.000 --> 00:39:11.130
WHAT HAPPENED. I LOVE IT. "I WILL NOT BELIEVE IT,"
00:39:11.150 --> 00:39:17.120
END OF VERSE 25. "A WEEK LATER, HIS DISCIPLES WERE
00:39:17.140 --> 00:39:25.100
IN THE HOUSE AGAIN, AND THOMAS WAS WITH THEM."
00:39:25.120 --> 00:39:29.070
I BET HE DIDN'T LEAVE THAT HOUSE FOR A WEEK.
00:39:29.090 --> 00:39:34.190
"AND THOUGH THE DOORS WERE LOCKED, JESUS CAME AND
00:39:34.210 --> 00:39:38.140
STOOD AMONG THEM." YOU JUST ALREADY KNOW IT.
00:39:38.160 --> 00:39:41.170
YOU DON'T EVEN NEED TO READ IT.
00:39:41.190 --> 00:39:44.120
AND HE SAID, "PEACE BE WITH YOU." THEY DIDN'T
00:39:44.140 --> 00:39:47.110
FREAK OUT AS MUCH THE SECOND TIME BECAUSE MOST
00:39:47.130 --> 00:39:49.080
THEM HAD ALREADY SEEN HEM COME THROUGH THE WALL,
00:39:49.100 --> 00:39:51.180
BUT HE COMES AND STANDS AMONG THEM AGAIN
00:39:51.200 --> 00:39:53.130
A SECOND TIME. HE COMES BACK FOR THOMAS.
00:39:53.150 --> 00:40:05.040
HE DIDN'T SAY, I GOT WORD THAT THOMAS,
00:40:05.060 --> 00:40:07.280
DOUBTING THOMAS...
00:40:08.000 --> 00:40:10.200
NOT FEELING IT. SERIOUSLY?
00:40:10.220 --> 00:40:18.000
SOMEBODY GO HAVE COFFEE WITH THEM AND TELL HIM
00:40:18.020 --> 00:40:19.170
AGAIN WHAT YOU SAW.
00:40:19.190 --> 00:40:22.090
TELL HIM I'M REALLY ALIVE.
00:40:22.110 --> 00:40:23.210
SOMEBODY GO HAVE COFFEE WITH HIM AND TELL HIM I
00:40:23.230 --> 00:40:25.110
REALLY DO HAVE SCARS AND NOT WOUNDS.
00:40:25.130 --> 00:40:27.050
SOMEBODY GO HAVE COFFEE WITH HIM AND TELL HIM I
00:40:27.070 --> 00:40:28.280
REALLY WAS RADIATING AS IF I WAS THE RISEN SON OF
00:40:29.000 --> 00:40:31.090
GOD STILL IN A HUMAN BODY.
00:40:31.110 --> 00:40:34.150
SOMEBODY GO HAVE A LATTE WITH HIM AND GO THROUGH
00:40:34.170 --> 00:40:37.080
THE BASICS WITH HIM AGAIN BECAUSE MAN,
00:40:37.100 --> 00:40:39.080
HE'S NOT GETTING IT.
00:40:39.100 --> 00:40:40.200
BUT SAID, OH, THOMAS DIDN'T BELIEVE IT?
00:40:40.220 --> 00:40:43.030
COOL, I'M FREE NEXT FRIDAY.
00:40:43.050 --> 00:40:47.080
COMES THROUGH THE WALL.
00:40:47.100 --> 00:40:50.260
HE SAID, "PEACE BE WITH YOU." AND THEN HE SAID TO
00:40:50.280 --> 00:40:55.060
THOMAS, THOMAS, YOU UNBELIEVING IDIOT!
00:40:55.080 --> 00:41:01.000
[LAUGHTER]
00:41:01.020 --> 00:41:05.000
I WAS PLANNING ON GOING TO THE BEACH THIS
00:41:05.020 --> 00:41:06.200
WEEKEND, BUT NOW I GOT TO BE BACK IN HERE
00:41:06.220 --> 00:41:08.040
BECAUSE OF YOU.
00:41:08.060 --> 00:41:10.130
NO, HE SAID, THOMAS, PUT YOUR FINGER HERE
00:41:10.150 --> 00:41:13.190
AND SEE MY HANDS.
00:41:13.210 --> 00:41:18.100
REACH OUT YOUR HAND AND PUT IT INTO MY SIDE.
00:41:18.120 --> 00:41:21.170
DON'T DOUBT, BELIEVE.
00:41:21.190 --> 00:41:25.040
SEE, HOW TO STOP DOUBTING BELIEF COMES OUT DEPENDS
00:41:25.060 --> 00:41:28.070
ON WHAT CHURCH YOU GREW UP IN.
00:41:28.090 --> 00:41:30.150
STOP DOUBTING!
00:41:30.170 --> 00:41:33.050
OR IT COULD JUST BE, DON'T DOUBT ME.
00:41:33.070 --> 00:41:36.110
COME HERE. DON'T DOUBT ME. IT'S COOL.
00:41:36.130 --> 00:41:41.090
JUST STICK IT IN THERE.
00:41:41.110 --> 00:41:44.040
AND I'M NOT GOING TO DO IT HERE BECAUSE THAT
00:41:44.060 --> 00:41:45.250
WOULDN'T BLESS ANYBODY, BUT HE PULLS UP HAS ROBE...
00:41:45.270 --> 00:41:47.260
[LAUGHTER]
00:41:47.280 --> 00:41:56.080
AND HE JUST SAYS, STICK YOUR HAND IN THERE.
00:41:56.100 --> 00:42:02.270
AND HE SAYS, DON'T DOUBT ME, DON'T DOUBT ME.
00:42:02.290 --> 00:42:06.240
WHEN I TOLD YOU I WAS COMING ALIVE,
00:42:06.260 --> 00:42:08.110
BRO, I MEAN ALIVE. DON'T DOUBT ME.
00:42:08.130 --> 00:42:12.240
AND THEN HE SAID THESE WORDS.
00:42:12.260 --> 00:42:18.090
THOMAS SAID TO HIM, MY -- SAY IT WITH ME --
00:42:18.110 --> 00:42:23.240
LORD AND MY GOD.
00:42:23.260 --> 00:42:29.110
[APPLAUSE]
00:42:29.130 --> 00:42:40.270
BEDROCK. SO HE'S COMING THROUGH YOUR WALLS TODAY.
00:42:40.290 --> 00:42:49.190

GREAT, I GOT LAYERS TO ME.
00:42:51.080 --> 00:42:54.160
I GOT THE DOORS LOCKED AND THE WINDOWS LOCKED,
00:42:54.180 --> 00:42:56.120
AND THERE'S A MOTE AROUND ME. AWESOME!
00:42:56.140 --> 00:43:00.190
GET READY FOR "PEACE BE WITH YOU." HOW YOU DOING?
00:43:00.210 --> 00:43:07.100
HOW'D YOU GET IN HERE? NOBODY GETS IN HERE.
00:43:07.120 --> 00:43:10.020
I COME THROUGH WALLS, EVEN YOUR WALLS.
00:43:10.040 --> 00:43:18.050
WOULD YOU LIKE TO PUT YOUR FINGER IN HERE?
00:43:18.070 --> 00:43:22.010
CAN YOU IMAGINE JESUS JUST PULLING UP HIS
00:43:22.030 --> 00:43:25.230
SLEEVES AND, WANT TO INVESTIGATE?
00:43:25.250 --> 00:43:30.220
WOULD YOU LIKE TO POKE AROUND?
00:43:30.240 --> 00:43:36.120
OH, THAT'S NOT ENOUGH?
00:43:36.140 --> 00:43:38.220
OH, THAT'S RIGHT, YOU SAID UNLESS YOU PUT MY
00:43:38.240 --> 00:43:41.150
FINGERS IN THE HOLES IN HIS WRIST AND IN HIS SIDE.
00:43:41.170 --> 00:43:45.160
I FORGOT, THAT'S COOL.
00:43:45.180 --> 00:43:47.230
IT WOULD BE GOOD IF IT WAS JUST -- NO, THOSE ARE
00:43:47.250 --> 00:43:49.190
THE HOLES, AND THOSE ARE YOUR WRISTS, AND I'M GOOD.
00:43:49.210 --> 00:43:51.230
I DON'T REALLY NEED TO SEE ANYTHING AFTER THAT,
00:43:51.250 --> 00:43:53.250
I'M GOOD. OH, YOU GOT ANOTHER QUESTION?
00:43:53.270 --> 00:43:57.250
SIDE? GREAT. [SIGH]
00:43:57.270 --> 00:44:10.130
MY LORD AND MY GOD, THAT'S WHO YOU ARE, AND
00:44:10.150 --> 00:44:16.200
I'M A BEDROCK.
00:44:16.220 --> 00:44:18.070
AND I'M TELL YOU SOMETHING, IT IS AMAZING
00:44:18.090 --> 00:44:21.090
THAT GOD GENTLY AND KINDLY COMES TO TOUCH AND
00:44:21.110 --> 00:44:23.190
PRESS ON YOUR WOUND. GOTTA HAPPEN.
00:44:23.210 --> 00:44:28.060
BUT THE LIFE THAT HE HAS FOR YOU IS GOING TO
00:44:28.080 --> 00:44:32.110
REQUIRE YOU TO COME AND TOUCH ON HIS WOUND.
00:44:32.130 --> 00:44:35.170
[APPLAUSE]
00:44:35.190 --> 00:44:40.120
OH, YES, IF YOU PUT THE ONE PERCENT OUT THERE,
00:44:40.140 --> 00:44:43.110
BECAUSE HE PRESSED ON THAT WOUND, HE'S GOING TO
00:44:43.130 --> 00:44:46.140
BRING IT INTO THE LIGHT AND BRING YOU
00:44:46.160 --> 00:44:48.030
INTO THE TRUTH.
00:44:48.050 --> 00:44:49.270
BUT WHAT HE'S INVITING YOU TO DO IS TO LET HIM
00:44:49.290 --> 00:44:52.100
HEAL YOUR WOUNDS, AND THE WAY THAT GETS SEALED UP
00:44:52.120 --> 00:44:55.200
IS WHEN YOU COME, AND YOU PUT YOUR HAND
00:44:55.220 --> 00:44:57.180
ON HIS WOUNDS.
00:44:57.200 --> 00:44:59.210
[APPLAUSE]
00:44:59.230 --> 00:45:04.210
AND YOU GO, MY LORD AND MY GOD.
00:45:04.230 --> 00:45:09.050
AND JESUS SAYS, THOMAS, YOU'VE SEEN,
00:45:09.070 --> 00:45:15.040
AND YOU'VE BELIEVED.
00:45:15.060 --> 00:45:18.220
BUT BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO HAVE NOT SEEN
00:45:18.240 --> 00:45:23.030
AND STILL BELIEVE.
00:45:23.050 --> 00:45:25.070
LISTEN, I'M CLOSING RIGHT HERE, BUT DON'T MISS THIS.
00:45:25.090 --> 00:45:27.250
THAT WASN'T A DISS ON THOMAS.
00:45:27.270 --> 00:45:32.160
HE'D COME THROUGH THE WALL TWICE SO PEOPLE
00:45:32.180 --> 00:45:34.140
COULD SEE AND BELIEVE.
00:45:34.160 --> 00:45:36.110
HE WASN'T SAYING THAT PEOPLE DON'T NEED
00:45:36.130 --> 00:45:37.290
TO SEE TO BELIEVE.
00:45:38.010 --> 00:45:40.040
HE WASN'T KNOCKING THOMAS.
00:45:40.060 --> 00:45:42.240
AND BY THE WAY, DON'T EVER CALL HIM
00:45:42.260 --> 00:45:44.040
DOUBTING THOMAS.
00:45:44.060 --> 00:45:46.040
IF YOU'RE AT A LITTLE KID'S THING OR WHATEVER,
00:45:46.060 --> 00:45:49.060
LAYER THAT IS AT YOUR CHURCH, AND YOU'RE LOOK

DOUBTING THOMAS. YOU GO, NO, IT'S NOT!
00:45:53.180 --> 00:45:55.280
TODAY IS GOING TO BE HONEST INVESTIGATION BY A GUY
00:45:56.000 --> 00:45:58.110
WHO HAD SOME REAL LIFE QUESTIONS, WHO CAME OUT
00:45:58.130 --> 00:46:02.200
WITH WHAT HE WAS STRUGGLING WITH, WAS MET
00:46:02.220 --> 00:46:06.040
BY A MAN WHO CAME THROUGH THE WALL AND REACHED OUT
00:46:06.060 --> 00:46:08.150
HIS HANDS AND SAID, YOU CAN INVESTIGATE.
00:46:08.170 --> 00:46:12.020
AND YOU KNOW WHAT DOUBTING THOMAS DID?
00:46:12.040 --> 00:46:14.130
HE DID EXACTLY WHAT JESUS ASKED HUM TO DO.
00:46:14.150 --> 00:46:17.210
HE RECEIVED THE HOLY SPIRIT, HE WAS
00:46:17.230 --> 00:46:19.180
THERE ON PENTECOST.
00:46:19.200 --> 00:46:21.100
HE GOT CHANGED BY THE POWER OF GOD, HE WAS
00:46:21.120 --> 00:46:23.110
SENT, LIKE JESUS SAID, INTO THE WORLD, AND HE
00:46:23.130 --> 00:46:26.070
DIED IN THE TOUGHEST SPIRITUAL BATTLEGROUND
00:46:26.090 --> 00:46:30.190
ON EARTH IN NORTHERN INDIA FOR THE GOSPEL.
00:46:30.210 --> 00:46:36.040
HIS NAME IS NOT DOUBTING THOMAS!
00:46:36.060 --> 00:46:38.070
HIS NAME IS HELL-WRECKING THOMAS.
00:46:38.090 --> 00:46:41.210
[APPLAUSE]
00:46:41.230 --> 00:46:49.160
SO YOUR QUESTIONS ARE NOT A PROBLEM FOR GOD.
00:46:49.180 --> 00:46:53.030
THEY ARE A PATHWAY FOR YOU TO BECOME A WORLD
00:46:53.050 --> 00:46:54.290
CHANGER FOR GOD.
00:46:55.010 --> 00:46:57.170
SO YOU JUST KEEP ON DIGGING.
00:46:57.190 --> 00:47:00.070
YOU GUYS, I SAY DIG A LITTLE BIT MORE. OKAY.
00:47:00.090 --> 00:47:04.280
BECAUSE DOWN THERE AT BEDROCK IS A MOMENT FOR
00:47:05.000 --> 00:47:07.100
EVERY ONE OF US WHERE WE GET IN THIS VERSE.
00:47:07.120 --> 00:47:10.160
BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO DIDN'T SEE HIM PHYSICALLY
00:47:10.180 --> 00:47:15.070
BUT WHO SAW HIM WITH THE EYES OF THE SPIRIT AND
00:47:15.090 --> 00:47:18.200
REACHED OUT IN FAITH AND PUT OUR HANDS ON THE
00:47:18.220 --> 00:47:22.270
WOUNDS ON HIS HANDS AND IN HIS SIDE AND IN HIS
00:47:22.290 --> 00:47:27.100
FEET, AND WE SAW WITH REVELATION SIGHT THAT
00:47:27.120 --> 00:47:32.190
JESUS CHRIST IS ALIVE, THAT WE ARE WORTHY AND
00:47:32.210 --> 00:47:37.180
VALUABLE, THAT WE ARE SIGNIFICANT AND WANTED,
00:47:37.200 --> 00:47:41.020
THAT WE ARE FORGIVEN AND WASHED CLEAN, THAT WE ARE
00:47:41.040 --> 00:47:44.130
CALLED AND APPOINTED, THAT WE ARE CHOSEN AND
00:47:44.150 --> 00:47:47.090
INVITED, THAT WE HAVE A SEAT AT THE TABLE OF THE
00:47:47.110 --> 00:47:50.230
KING OF KINGS, THAT WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN A GIFT.
00:47:50.250 --> 00:47:53.210
WE HAVE BEEN FILLED WITH HIS WORD AND PUT IN A
00:47:53.230 --> 00:47:55.270
BODY AND PUT IN A HOUSE AND PUT IN A FAMILY AND
00:47:55.290 --> 00:47:58.150
SENT OUT INTO A BROKEN WORLD SAYING TO THE
00:47:58.170 --> 00:48:01.050
WORLD, I'VE SEEN ENOUGH.
00:48:01.070 --> 00:48:04.250
I'M DOWN AT BEDROCK, AND THE CIRCUMSTANCES MAY BE
00:48:04.270 --> 00:48:08.080
TOUGH, AND I MAY HAVE A COFFEE WITH A FRIENDS
00:48:08.100 --> 00:48:10.140
SAYING, I JUST NEED YOU TO COME ALONG SIDE AND
00:48:10.160 --> 00:48:13.000
PRAY FOR ME, BUT I'M TELLING YOU, NO MATTER
00:48:13.020 --> 00:48:15.150
WHAT, I STILL BELIEVE IN THE LOVE OF GOD.

I STILL BELIEVE IN THE CROSS OF CHRIST.
00:48:17.150 --> 00:48:19.210
I STILL BELIEVE IN A GOD WHO DOES MIRACLES.
00:48:19.230 --> 00:48:21.240
I STILL BELIEVE IN A GOD WHO'S ALWAYS WORKING IN
00:48:21.260 --> 00:48:24.110
EVERY CIRCUMSTANCE AND IN EVERY SITUATION.
00:48:24.130 --> 00:48:27.100
SO PRAY WITH OUR FAMILY AS WE GO THROUGH THIS
00:48:27.120 --> 00:48:29.280
FAMILY, BUT WE WILL NOT DOUBT OUR GOD.
00:48:30.000 --> 00:48:33.150
IN FACT, WE WILL STAND ON THIS CIRCUMSTANCE AND USE
00:48:33.170 --> 00:48:38.070
IT AS A PLATFORM TO TELL MORE PEOPLE ABOUT
00:48:38.090 --> 00:48:42.020
THE MAN WHO COMES THROUGH THE WALL.

YOU ONCE THEY TOUCH YOUR HANDS AND FEET AND ARE
00:49:48.060 --> 00:49:51.080
