GRANDPARENTS 01:24 EMIGRATED FROM THE UKRAINE WAY BACK IN THE DAY AND 01:27 UH, REFUGEE UKRAINIANS LOVE MUSIC. 01:31 THEY ARE VERY MUSICAL. 01:33 MY MOM AND DAD THEY TAUGHT US HOW TO SING PARTS WHEN 01:36 WE WERE JUST LITTLE KIDS AND WE'VE BEEN SINGING 01:37 TOGETHER FOR WELL, SINCE I WAS A KID SO I'LL LET YOU 01:41 FIGURE OUT HOW MANY YEARS THAT IS. 01:42 YOU'RE EXPERIENCED, LET'S PUT IT THAT WAY. 01:44 YES. 01:45 AND WE WERE SO BLEST JUST A FEW MONTHS AGO TO GET 01:48 NINE OF US TOGETHER AT THE LOMA LINDA UNIVERSITY 01:50 CHURCH AND DID A GOSPEL OUTREACH RALLY. 01:55 DID A LOT OF WONDERFUL MUSIC AH, AND THE PEOPLE 01:59 RESPONDED IN JUST A VERY POWERFUL WAY IN HELPING 02:03 ADOPT MORE GOSPEL OUTREACH BIBLE WORKERS. 02:06 WHAT A NEAT OPPORTUNITY TO COMBINE MUSIC WITH THE 02:09 MISSION OF GIVING REPORTS OF WHAT'S GOING ON AND 02:12 WITH THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS IN THAT 10/40 02:15 WINDOW. 02:16 ALL OF THOSE MANY, MANY COUNTRIES AND THEN TO ALSO 02:18 HAVE THE JOY OF SINGING ABOUT JESUS. 02:21 EXACTLY. 02:22 AND UM, IT WAS WELL ATTENDED AND ALSO ON LINE. 02:26 IT WAS AND WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THE CURRENT NUMBER OF 02:30 HITS ARE BUT I KNOW THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT 02:32 ARE STILL RESPONDING BY SUPPORTING GOSPEL 02:36 OUTREACH. 02:37 I'M JUST GOING TO SHARE ONE EXPERIENCE. 02:38 SO, UH A LADY, A VIEWER AFTER THE CONCERT SHE 02:45 SAID, OUR FAMILY HAS BEEN PUTTING MONEY ASIDE EVERY 02:48 MONTH FOR A MINISTRY THAT WE KNOW WERE NOT JUST 02:52 GOING TO PAY SOMEBODY'S SALARY AND AFTER WATCHING 02:56 THE CONCERT AND KNOWING WHAT GOSPEL OUTREACH IS 02:59 DOING IN THE 10/40 WINDOW, THEY SAID, WE ARE 03:02 COMMITTING THAT MONEY TO GOSPEL OUTREACH AND WHEN 03:03 WE FINALLY GOT THROUGH THE DIALOGUE, SHE SAID, THERE 03:05 IS OVER $80,000 WE ARE SENDING INTO GOSPEL 03:06 OUTREACH. 03:07 WOW, WHAT A GIFT. 03:07 TO ADOPT WORKERS. 03:08 I MEAN, THAT JUST BLEW US AWAY. 03:09 WHAT A GIFT. 03:10 AND YOU KNOW, A FEW WEEKS AGO WE AT A CHURCH A LADY 03:11 SAID, YOU KNOW, I JUST SOLD SOME PROPERTY AND 03:12 I'VE GOT SOME MONEY THAT I'VE BEEN PRAYING LORD, 03:13 YOU KNOW, SHOW US WHERE THIS MONEY WILL BE USED 03:29 THE MOST EFFECTIVELY AND WE DON'T KNOW THE AMOUNT 03:37 BUT I KNOW IT IS GOING TO BE IN THE 10'S OF 03:39 THOUSANDS. 03:40 IT IS NOT ABOUT US, BUT IT IS YOU KNOW, GOD IS USING 03:43 US AS A VEHICLE TO REACH PEOPLE AND SO MANY PEOPLE 03:47 YOU KNOW, THERE ARE SO MANY WONDERFUL MINISTRIES 03:51 OUT THERE BUT AS SOME PEOPLE HAVE SAID, YOU 03:54 KNOW, IF HALF THE FUNDS THAT I SEND IN ARE GOING 03:56 JUST TO PAY SOMEBODY'S SALARY YOU KNOW, AND WHEN 03:59 THE GOSPEL OUTREACH THE BOTTOMLINE THAT LESS THAN 04:03 5 PER CENT OF THE FUNDS SENT TO GOSPEL OUTREACH 04:07 ARE USED FOR OVERHEAD AND 95 CENTS ON THE DOLLAR 04:11 GOES TO THESE GOSPEL OUTREACH BIBLE WORKERS 04:14 THAT SAYS A LOT. 04:15 AH, IT'S KIND OF PUT A WHOLE NEW UM LILT IN OUR 04:20 STEP TO BE ABLE TO STILL DO CONCERTS AND MUSIC. 04:24 PEOPLE STILL CAN SHOW UP AND LISTEN TO SOME OLD 04:27 PEOPLE SINGING. 04:27 OH NO, NO. 04:28 IT'S ALL A JOY AND TO SEE ALL OF YOU IN THE FAMILY 04:33 TOGETHER I MEAN, WELL ESPECIALLY THE YOUNGER 04:35 GENERATION, YES, GETTING THEM INVOLVED, ABSOLUTELY. 04:37 YOUR NEPHEW WAS THERE, YES AND IT WAS REALLY GREAT. 04:41 WELL, FOR MANY PEOPLE FOR MANY OF YOU, YOU WEREN'T 04:44 ABLE TO MAYBE GO TO LOMA LINDA AND TO SEE THAT BUT 04:47 HERE'S YOUR OPPORTUNITY. 04:48 SO, WE WANT TO SHARE WITH YOU SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS 04:50 FROM THE MELASHENKO FAMILY SINGERS CONCERT WITH THE 04:53 GOSPEL OUTREACH RALLY AND WE HAVE SOME FOOTAGE NOW, 04:56 JOEDY. 04:57 WHY DON'T WE - I THINK THE OPENING FOOTAGE HAS THE 04:59 PARADE OF FLAGS FROM ALL THE COUNTRIES THAT GOSPEL 05:04 OUTREACH IS REACHING AND WE ACTUALLY HAD PEOPLE 05:07 THAT REPRESENTED SOME OF THOSE COUNTRIES CARRY 05:10 THOSE FLAGS IN, IN THE PARADE OF NATIONS. 05:11 IT WAS GREAT. 05:12 I LOVE IT. 05:12 SO, WHY DON'T WE TAKE A PEAK. 05:13 YES. 05:14 ALRIGHT. 05:16 HERE WE GO. 05:18 [VIDEO PLAYING]. 05:47 SONG: AT THE FEET OF JESUS, WE OFFER OUR 05:54 THANKSGIVING, SURRENDERING OUR PRAISES UNTO THE KING 06:06 OF KINGS. 06:09 COME IF YOU ARE WEARY, HE WILL MEET YOUR NEEDS. 06:21 THE ANSWER CAN BE FOUND AT JESUS FEET. 06:31 THERE LIVED A MAN IN BONDAGE. 06:39 SATAN HELD HIM FAST. 06:43 HE ONLY HOPED SOMEONE WOULD SET HIM FREE. 06:54 SHACKLES COULD NOT HOLD HIM, BY SATAN'S POWER HE 07:05 WAS POSSESSED. 07:09 DWELLING IN THE TOMBS OF THE DECEASED. 07:19 THEN A MAN NAMED JESUS CAME PASSING BY HIS WAY HE 07:32 SAID, SATAN MUST COME OUT AND LET HIM BE. 07:41 THE PEACE THAT CAME AMAZED HIM FOR THE POWER OF GOD 07:52 HAD SAVED HIM AND HE FOUND THE GRACE TO REST AT JESUS 07:59 FEET. 08:04 AT THE FEET OF JESUS, WE OFFER OUR THANKSGIVING 08:17 SURRENDERING OUR PRAISES UNTO THE KING OF KINGS, 08:30 COME IF YOU ARE WEARY HE WILL MEET YOUR NEEDS. 08:42 THE ANSWER CAN BE FOUND AT JESUS FEET. 08:52 COME IF YOU ARE WEARY, HE WILL MEET YOUR NEEDS. 09:05 THE ANSWER CAN BE FOUND, YES, THE ANSWER CAN BE 09:10 FOUND. 09:12 THE ANSWER CAN BE FOUND AT JESUS FEET. 09:47 WHAT A GREAT OPENING SONG JOEDY, AND WHEN YOU SEE 09:49 SOMETHING LIKE THAT IT KIND OF PUTS A MENTAL 09:51 PICTURE IN YOUR MIND, RIGHT? 09:53 YEP. 09:54 SO, NOT ONLY WAS THERE MUSIC BUT ALSO THERE WERE 09:56 REPORTS FROM THE REGIONAL DIRECTORS. 09:58 YOU KNOW, MANZOOR IS JUST SUCH A CHAMPION FOR GOD. 10:00 INDIA HAS, I THINK, SOME OF THE LARGEST NUMBERS OF 10:05 OUR BIBLE WORKERS IN THAT COUNTRY AND YOU KNOW, THE 10:10 WAY HE SHARED THE -GOD HAS A BILLION AND A HALF 10:14 CHILDREN, YES, IN INDIA AND ONLY THREE PER CENT OF 10:18 THEM HAVE HEARD THE NAME JESUS. 10:20 STAGGERING. 10:21 SO, TO LOOK THE PEOPLE OF INDIA ALL OF GOD'S 10:24 CHILDREN, YOU KNOW, I DON'T KNOW IF HE SHARED 10:27 THIS BUT ONE OF THINGS THAT HE'S ASKED OUR 10:30 VIEWERS TO PRAY FOR IS THE WORKERS AND TO PRAY 10:32 ACTUALLY FOR INDIA BECAUSE APPARENTLY THE PRIME 10:35 MINISTER IN INDIA IS VERY ANTICHRISTIAN AND THEY ARE 10:39 ACTUALLY TAKING A VOTE IN PARLIAMENT WHETHER THEY 10:43 ARE GOING TO OUTLAW CHRISTIANITY OR NOT. 10:46 WELL, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT SAYS TO YOU BUT THAT 10:47 PUTS KIND OF A RED FLAG UP THAT WOW, THE EVIL ONE IS 10:50 REALLY AT WORK. 10:51 WELL, WHY DON'T WE TAKE A PEAK AND THE VIDEO AND 10:54 WE'LL LISTEN TO MANZOOR AT THE RALLY. 10:55 [VIDEO PLAYING]. 10:59 WELL, I HAPPEN TO HAVE THE PRIVILEGE TO BE PART OF 11:02 THIS GREAT ORGANIZATION, GOSPEL OUTREACH. 11:04 AND IN INDIA WE HAVE 1100 GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS 11:09 THROUGHOUT SOUTHERN ASIA DIVISION. 11:11 AMEN. 11:12 AND THEY ARE RIGHT WHEN THEY SAID, THAT 75 PER 11:15 CENT OF ALL THE PEOPLE INTRODUCED TO JESUS IN THE 11:18 SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH IS THE RESULT OF 11:20 GOSPEL OUTREACH. 11:23 WOW. 11:24 I OVERSEE 400 OF THEM IN ANDHRA PRADESH WHICH IS 11:26 SOUTHERN PART. 11:28 IN JOEL, IT SAYS MULTITUDES, MULTITUDES ARE 11:32 IN THE VALLEY OF DECISION AND IN OUR HOMELAND, 11:36 SOUTHERN ASIA, INDIA PARTICULARLY, 1.3 BILLION 11:39 CHILDREN OF GOD AND IMAGINE 97 PER CENT OF 11:46 THEM DO NOT EVEN KNOW JESUS. 11:49 EIGHTY NINE PERCENT ARE HINDUS, TEN PER CENT 11:52 MUSLIMS AND LESS THAN THREE PERCENT ARE 11:55 CHRISTIANS AND ALL OTHER MINORITIES. 11:58 YOU KNOW WHAT IS THE PRICE OF A RUBLE TODAY? 12:01 WHAT IS THE PRICE OF RUBLE? 12:04 YOU WOULD SAY WORTHLESS, RIGHT? 12:06 IT HAS HAPPENED OVERNIGHT. 12:09 IN JUST THREE WEEKS, WE HAVE SEEN THE ECONOMY JUST 12:14 GO DOWN THE TUBE. 12:15 THIS IS GOING TO BE HAPPENING TO ALL OF US ONE 12:19 OF THESE DAYS. 12:20 RIGHT. 12:22 JESUS WILL COME AND HE'LL SAY, WHAT DID YOU DO WITH 12:25 ALL THE BLESSINGS AND THE OPPORTUNITIES, THE TIME, 12:28 THE TALENTS AND ALL THE THINGS I'VE BLEST YOU 12:31 WITH. 12:32 IT IS TIME FOR SACRIFICE. 12:34 AMEN. 12:35 IT IS TIME FOR SERIOUS PRAYER AND WHEN I SAY 12:38 SERIOUS PRAYER I MEAN CONCERTEDLY KNEELING AND 12:44 ASKING GOD, DO SOMETHING SPECIFIC NOT BLESS ALL THE 12:51 PEOPLE IN ALL THE WORLD IN ALL THE WAYS. 12:54 BUT SPECIFIC. 12:56 ADOPT SOMEBODY. 12:58 I WANT TO JUST QUICKLY TELL YOU ONE MORE THING 13:01 THAT IN SOUTHERN ASIA WE FIND THAT OUR 1100 WORKERS 13:05 THEY ARE GOING THROUGH SUCH HARD TIME WHEN THEY 13:08 ARE PREACHING. 13:10 NEAR MY VILLAGE, TOWARDS KASHMIR. 13:13 I'M ABOUT 80 MILES AWAY FROM THAT PLACE. 13:16 OUR PEOPLE WERE BAPTIZING AND THEY 80 SOME PEOPLE 13:20 LINED UP TO BE BAPTIZED AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE 13:26 POLICE CAME, ARRESTED THEM, TOOK THEM TO JAIL 13:28 AND WHEN THEY WENT THERE WHAT DID THEY FIND? 13:31 THEY FIND ALL THE OTHER DENOMINATION CHRISTIANS, 13:35 PASTORS SITTING THERE IN JAIL BECAUSE THEY WERE THE 13:40 ONES WHO HAD SAID THAT OUR WORKERS WERE FORCING 13:45 PEOPLE TO BE BAPTIZED. 13:48 SO, THEY HAD SAID FALSE REPORT. 13:51 WE GENERALLY BUS THEM TO MY VILLAGE, BAPTIZE THEM. 13:55 WE FEED THEM FOR THE WEEKEND AND THEN WE SEND 13:58 THEM BACK ON THE BUS. 14:00 OUR PEOPLE ARE GOING THROUGH TOUGH TIMES, TOUGH 14:04 TIMES. 14:05 I DON'T THINK THAT WE REALLY KNOW. 14:07 I DON'T KNOW WHAT HARDSHIP MEANS AND TO ME, BY THE 14:10 WAY, HARDSHIP IS WHEN I DON'T HAVE DESSERT AFTER A 14:14 GOOD MEAL. 14:15 OK? 14:16 THIS IS AFTER SOME GOOD CURRY. 14:18 SO, I WANT TO TELL YOU THAT I AM HOMESICK FOR 14:21 HEAVEN. 14:22 IN ISAIAH 6:8 GOD IS SAYING, GOD SAID TO ISAIAH 14:27 "WHO SHALL I SEND? 14:31 AND HE SAYS, "LORD, HERE I AM SEND ME." 14:36 AND THAT IS AFTER HE HAD HAD A VISION OF GOD AND HE 14:41 SAW HIM AND HE SAYS I AM UNDONE, INCOMPLETE AND GOD 14:46 TOUCHES HIM, CLEANSES HIM AND EQUIPS HIM AND HE 14:51 SAYS, OK, HERE I AM PLEASE SEND ME. 14:54 SO, MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS SOME MUST GO, SOME 14:58 MUST PRAY, AND SOME MUST SEND SOMEONE TO SHARE THE 15:04 LOVE OF GOD. 15:06 I'M SO GRATEFUL YOU ARE HERE. 15:11 LET'S ENJOY THIS MUSIC AND BE HOMESICK FOR HEAVEN AND 15:14 DO ALL WE CAN TO HASTEN THE LORD'S RETURN. 15:18 WE ARE NOT OUR OWN, WE ARE ON LOAN TO BUILD THE 15:20 KINGDOM OF GOD. 15:20 AMEN. 15:21 THANK YOU. 15:22 JOEDY, I JUST LOVE THE EXCITEMENT OF MANZOOR. 15:23 I MEAN, WHAT AN AMBASSADOR FOR THE LORD, THE 15:24 EXCITEMENT AND FOR HIM WHO HE WAS BORN IN INDIA, YES, 15:28 AND TO BE ABLE TO HAVE EMIGRATED TO THE STATES 15:30 AND THEN NOW TO BE WORKING FOR HIS ORIGINAL HOMELAND. 15:34 AH, SO WHAT'S IT IS LIKE FOR YOU TO WORK WITH YOUR 15:38 BROTHER LONNIE ON THIS PROJECT? 15:39 WELL, YOU KNOW LONNIE HAS SUCH A GIFT OF 15:41 COMMUNICATION. 15:42 HE REALLY HAS BEEN GIFTED TO BE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE 15:49 WE'VE HAD THE PRIVILEGE OVER THE YEARS OF HOLDING 15:53 EVANGELISTIC SERIES IN THE PHILIPPINES, IN RUSSIA, AH 15:58 SO I KNOW HOW GOD HAS USED HIM AND YOU KNOW, HE AND I 16:02 BOTH RETIRED AND YOU KNOW, HE DIDN'T KNOW VERY MUCH 16:07 ABOUT GOSPEL OUTREACH, WHICH UNFORTUNATELY, YOU 16:10 KNOW IN MANY WAYS IT'S THE CHURCH'S BEST KEPT SECRET 16:13 AND THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS WE'VE BEEN 16:15 CHALLENGED TO DO AND WE ARE THRILLED TO DO TO GET 16:17 THE WORD OUT TO PEOPLE. 16:18 THERE IS NOTHING LIKE HAVING A WARM BODY IN 16:21 FRONT OF WARM BODIES. 16:23 AH, YOU KNOW WE KIND OF GET OVER SATURATED WITH 16:28 SOCIAL MEDIA AND EMAILS AND TEXTS AND SO PEOPLE 16:32 REALLY ENJOY THE BLESSING OF HERE'S A FAMILY WE CAN 16:39 ACTUALLY HUG, YES, AND TOUCH AND BE TOGETHER. 16:42 AH, AND THAT'S BEEN REALLY A GREAT JOY AND YOU KNOW, 16:47 WHEN LONNIE AND JEANNIE -I SAID, HEY, WE'VE GOT THE 16:52 OPPORTUNITY FOR OUR FAMILY TO GET INVOLVED AGAIN IN 16:54 DOING CONCERTS AND MUSIC FOR A PURPOSE AND I TELL 17:00 YOU WHAT, OUR FAMILY IS ALL IN. 17:01 ALL OF THE CONCERTS, ALL OF THE PREACHING 17:04 APPOINTMENTS NOW

[VIDEO PLAYING]. 17:16 NOW LISTEN AS I STAND HERE THIS EVENING, I WISH I 17:20 COULD EYEBALL EVERY CONFERENCE PRESIDENT, 17:22 EVERY EVANGELIST IN EVERY CONFERENCE, EVERY STATE, 17:25 EVERY PROVINCE IN NORTH AMERICA AND MAKE THIS 17:28 APPEAL. 17:30 FOR EVERY DOLLAR OF EVANGELISM, WE SPEND IN 17:32 NORTH AMERICA, WE NEED TO SPEND AN EQUAL OR GREATER 17:39 AMOUNT FOR THAT GREAT BIG 10/40 WINDOW. 17:41 THAT'S WHERE 97 PER CENT OF THE PEOPLE IN THE WORLD 17:44 LIVE THAT HAVE NEVER EVEN HEARD OF JESUS OR HEARD OF 17:47 THE GOSPEL. 17:48 WE'VE DONE A PRETTY GOOD JOB HERE IN THE CIVILIZED 17:50 WESTERN WORLD WHAT ABOUT IN THE 10/40 WINDOW. 17:54 I BELIEVE WITH ALL MY HEART TOO, JOEDY THAT IF 17:58 WE WOULD JUST REPRIORITIZE OUR EVANGELISTIC EFFORTS 18:02 AND GIVE A LOT MORE FOCUS AND FINANCES OVER THERE IN 18:05 THE 10/40 WINDOW WE COULD HELP HASTEN THE LORD'S 18:10 COMING. 18:11 I BELIEVE IT. 18:12 OUR EVANGELISM DOLLARS THERE WOULD BE 100-FOLD 18:14 MORE IN SOULS WON FOR THE KINGDOM. 18:16 POWERFUL, JOEDY. 18:17 POWERFUL. 18:18 WELL, YOU KNOW MY DAD WAS AN EVANGELIST. 18:23 WORKED FOR THE VOICE OF PROPHECY, HELD 18:25 EVANGELISTIC SERIES IN PHILIPPINES IN MANY 18:28 COUNTRIES OF THE WORLD AND I CAN REMEMBER WHAT A 18:30 PASSION HE HAD FOR USING GOD'S FUNDS EFFECTIVELY. 18:36 I CAN REMEMBER HE CAME BACK FROM AN EVANGELISTIC 18:38 SERIES I THINK IT WAS IN THE MIDWEST SOMEWHERE AND 18:42 I WOULD ALWAYS VISIT WITH HIM AND SAY, WELL, DAD, 18:43 HOW DID IT GO? 18:44 YOU KNOW WHAT KIND OF RESPONSE -RESULTS DID YOU 18:46 GET? 18:47 AND I CAN REMEMBER HIM BREAKING DOWN AND CRYING, 18:49 HE SAID, YOU KNOW JOEDY, SUCH AND SUCH A CONFERENCE 18:53 WE WERE IN THEY SPENT $100,000 IN EVANGELISM FOR 18:57 THIS CRUSADE, THIS EVANGELISTIC SERIES AND WE 19:02 GOT LIKE 15 BAPTISMS. 19:05 IF HE COULD SEE, YES, THE BANG FOR THE BUCK THAT 19:09 THESE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS THAT 100,000 WOULD 19:12 HAVE BEEN A HUNDREDFOLD OVER THERE. 19:15 I THINK SOME OF OUR CONFERENCES AND SOME OF 19:18 THE AREAS WE'VE BASICALLY TRIED PLOWING THE GROUNDS 19:22 OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN HOPING FOR DIFFERENT 19:24 RESULTS. 19:25 THAT'S WHERE THE HARVEST IS, IN THE 10/40 WINDOW. 19:29 WELL, 97 PERCENT OF THE PEOPLE WHO STILL NEED TO 19:31 KNOW ABOUT JESUS. 19:32 I MEAN THIS IS STAGGERING. 19:34 I SEE, YES, THESE PICTURES OF THESE CITIES AND WE 19:36 HEAR OF BILLIONS OF PEOPLE AND ALL OF THIS AND IT'S 19:39 LIKE LORD, HOW IS THIS GOING TO -HOW ARE YOU 19:42 GOING TO DO THIS? 19:43 BUT THAT IS NOT OUR JOB? 19:44 OUR JOB IS TO GO AND TO TELL AND THAT'S WHAT WE 19:46 ARE DOING. 19:47 EXACTLY. 19:48 SO, TO THE CONCERT LONNIE SHARED AND YOU SHARED AND 19:52 WE HAVE A VIDEO OF YOU SHARING AT THE CONCERT. 19:53 WHY DON'T WE TAKE A PEEK? 19:54 BLESS YOU. 19:56 ALRIGHT. 19:57 [VIDEO PLAYING]. 19:58 IN THE PHILIPPINES, IN ONE OF THE VERY REMOTE 20:00 VILLAGES TWO GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS WERE 20:03 ASKED TO COME AND TEACH THE VILLAGE CHILDREN HOW 20:06 TO READ AND WRITE. 20:07 THEY WERE ILLITERATE. 20:09 AND SO, THE LOCALS THEY BUILT THIS LITTLE SCHOOL 20:11 AND EXCITING THINGS WERE HAPPENING THERE BUT THE 20:14 VILLAGE CHIEF WHO IS ALSO THE WITCH DOCTOR HE GOT SO 20:19 ANGRY BECAUSE THESE KIDS WERE LEARNING STORIES 20:23 ABOUT THIS STRANGE GOD CALLED JESUS. 20:26 AND SO, HE SHUT DOWN THE SCHOOL, HE CALLED FOR 20:29 EVERYBODY IN THE VILLAGE TO COME TO A VILLAGE 20:32 MEETING AND I WILL SHOW YOU WHOSE GOD IS MORE 20:35 POWERFUL. 20:37 AND SO, THERE HE BROUGHT A BASIN OF WATER AND HE 20:42 SLAUGHTERED A WHITE CHICKEN AND HE SPRINKLED 20:47 THE BLOOD ALL OVER THE PLACE AND SCREAMING 20:49 INCANTATIONS AND CALLING FOR HIS GODS TO CAUSE 20:51 THESE ROCKS AND THE PIECES OF IRON AND THIS GOAT'S 20:57 HORN THAT HE PUT IN THAT BASIN TO FLOAT. 21:00 AN HOUR LATER, AFTER ALL THIS INCANTATIONS AND 21:06 SCREAMING AND YELLING, NOTHING HAPPENED. 21:10 SO, VERY ANGRILY HE TOLD THE TWO STUDENT GOSPEL 21:14 OUTREACH BIBLE WORKERS, THESE TEACHERS, HE SAID, 21:16 ALRIGHT, SEE WHAT YOUR GOD CAN DO? 21:18 NOW, I ALREADY KNOW YOU ARE AHEAD OF THE STORY. 21:22 SO, THESE TWO BIBLE WORKERS THEY PRAYED AND IN 21:26 THAT TWO MINUTE PRAYER THEY GAVE THEM THE GOSPEL. 21:28 AND THEY KNELT, THEY PUT THE ROCKS, THEY PUT THAT 21:33 METAL, THEY PUT THE GOAT'S HORN IN THAT BASIN AND 21:36 THEY SANK TO THE BOTTOM BUT WITHIN JUST A FEW 21:41 SECONDS THEY CAME FLOATING TO THE TOP. 21:44 IS THERE AN AMEN CORNER IN THIS CHURCH? 21:48 OH, OK. 21:50 I THOUGHT MAYBE WE PUT YOU TO SLEEP ALREADY? 21:52 FRIENDS, I KNOW WE ALL KNOW THE STORY ABOUT 21:56 ELIJAH AND THE AXE. 21:57 THAT'S HAPPENING NOW. 21:59 IT IS AMAZING. 22:00 THAT VERY DAY, YOU'LL BE HAPPY TO KNOW ALL OF THE 22:03 VILLAGERS WENT DOWN TO THE RIVER AND THEY WERE ALL 22:08 BAPTIZED BUT WE ARE STILL WORKING ON THE WITCH 22:11 DOCTOR AND HIS WIFE BUT THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING IN 22:13 THAT REGION OF THE WORLD. 22:15 JOEDY, IT'S EXCITING AND YOU KNOW WHAT, HERE IS THE 22:17 COOL THING AS WE ALWAYS SAY WE WON'T KNOW UNTIL 22:19 HEAVEN, THAT'S RIGHT, HOW THE LORD HAS PREPARED THE 22:21 WAY, YES, AND WHAT THE HOLY SPIRIT IS DOING. 22:24 YOU KNOW, YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT THIS WITCH DOCTOR
