THERE ARE ALWAYS THINGS

WORKING AGAINST YOU.

OUTDOORS.

ON TODAY'S 700 CLUB.

> WELCOME TO THE 700 CLUB AND

THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.

TODAY WE START WITH A

DISTURBING STORY WHERE CHINA IS

USING FIGHTING WORDS.

THEY ARE THREATENING TO

INCINERATE JAPAN.

THEY ARE THREATENING TO ATTACK

AUSTRALIA WITH NUCLEAR WEAPONS.

AND THREATENING A SHOWDOWN WITH

THE U.S. OVER TAIWAN.

THESE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE

MOUNTING POWER PLAYS CHINA IS

BRANDISHING ALONG WITH ITS

GROWING ARSENAL OF NUCLEAR

WARHEADS AND LONG-RANGE

MISSILES.

TOP PENTAGON OFFICIALS ARE

RAISING THE ALARM OVER CHINA'S

RAPID MILITARY BUILDUP.

CAN ANYTHING BE DONE TO STOP

THE RED DRAGON?

IS IT TOO LATE?

WE HAVE THIS LOOK AT THIS

RISING THREAT.

Reporter: THE LATEST

PENTAGON REPORT ON CHINA'S

MILITARY POWER MAKES DISTURBING

PREDICTIONS.

NUCLEAR ADVANCEMENTS ARE

GETTING THE MOST ATTENTION.

AND IT REPORTS CHINA WILL HAVE

AT LEAST 1000 NUCLEAR WARHEADS

BY 2030.

THAT IS A MUCH MORE AGGRESSIVE

PACE THAN PREDICTED LAST YEAR.

EVEN SO, SOME EXPERTS BELIEVE

CHINA'S TRUE ARSENAL IS

ACTUALLY MUCH BIGGER.

BEIJING HAS NOT BEEN TALKING

TO THE U.S. DURING THE COLD

WAR, CHINA HAS REFUSED TO HAVE

ANY DISCUSSIONS ABOUT ARSENAL

SIZE, ARMS CONTROL AND ALL THE

REST OF IT.

WE HAVE TO ASSUME THE WORST.

WE ASSUME THAT CHINA HAS FAR

MORE THAN 1000 NOW.

Reporter: ACCORDING TO THIS

YEAR'S REPORT, ESTIMATES ABOUT

THE NUMBER OF BALLISTIC

MISSILES IN CHINA'S ARSENAL ARE

ALSO UP. IN AUGUST, BEIJING IS

BELIEVED TO HAVE STARTED A

HYPERSONIC WEAPON.

SOMETHING CHAIRMAN OF THE JOINT

CHIEFS, GENERAL MARK MILLEY

CALLED VERY CLOSE TO BEING A

SPUTNIK MOMENT.

REFERRING TO THE 1957 SOVIET

SATELLITE LAUNCH, WHICH BEAT

THE U.S. TO OUTER SPACE.

YOU HAVE A CASE HERE OF A

COUNTRY THAT IS BECOMING

EXTRAORDINARILY POWERFUL.

THAT WANTS TO REVISE THE

INTERNATIONAL ORDER TO THEIR

ADVANTAGE.

CHALLENGE OVER THE COMING YEARS

IN THE NEXT 10 OR 20 YEARS.

Reporter: WHILE MANY OF THE

MILITARY ADVANCEMENTS HAVE

ALREADY BEEN DEVELOPED BY THE

U.S., IT IS THE SPEED IN WHICH

CHINA IS ACCOMPLISHING THEM

THAT IS MOST CONCERNING.

WE ARE WITNESSING ONE OF THE

LARGEST SHIPS IN GLOBAL

STRATEGIC POWER THAT THE WORLD

HAS WITNESSED.

BEIJING IS USING IS ARSENAL

TO INTIMIDATE OTHERS. IN JULY,

THEY THREATENED TO INCINERATE

JAPANESE CITIES. SOON AFTER

THAT THEY THREATENED TO GO

AFTER AUSTRALIA.

THEY HAVE PERIODICALLY AND IN

AN UNPROVOKED FASHION THREATEN

THE UNITED STATES.

Reporter: CHINA STATE MEDIA

WARNED THAT A MILITAR SHOWDOWN

WITH THE U.S. WILL COME IF IT

ATTEMPTS TO BLOCK CHINA'S QUOTE

REUNIFICATION WITH TAIWAN.

THE SATELLITE IMAGES SHOW A

MOCKUP OF A U.S. WARSHIP IN THE

CHINESE DESERT.

BELIEVED TO HAVE BEEN BUILT AS

A TRAINING TARGET.

CHINA EXPERT GORDON CHANG

BELIEVES NOT ONLY IS A TAKEOVER

OF TAIWAN IMMINENT, THE

COMMUNIST POWER WILL NOT STOP.

CHINA IS PREPARING TO TAKE

OVER TAIWAN.

IT IS ALSO PREPARING TO TAKE

OVER INDIA, JAPAN.

TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD.

CHINA'S PRESIDENT XI JINPING

BELIEVES THEY HAVE THE MANDATE

OF HEAVEN, BUT HEAVEN COMPELS

THEM TO DO SO.

Reporter: DESPITE CHINA'S

RAPID MILITARY BUILDUP, CHANG

THAT IT IS NOT TOO LATE FOR

U.S. TO INTERVENE.

HE IS CONCERNED HOWEVER THAT

WHILE THE MILITARY STRENGTH

EXISTS, AMERICA'S LEADERS HAVE

NOT HAD THE POLITICAL WILL.

LET'S TALK ABOUT THE

SPECIFIC SCENARIO THAT EXPERTS

BELIEVE WILL BE THE ONE THAT

CAUSES A U.S. CONFLICT WITH

CHINA.

WHAT IS THAT ONE?

U.S. SUPPORT OF TAIWAN

REMAINING AUTONOMOUS, IS

DEFINITELY MAKING THE HEADLINES.

BUT SOME EXPERTS BELIEVE THERE

ARE OTHER SCENARIOS THAT ARE

NOT BEING TALKED ABOUT.

CHANG SPECIFICALLY POINTED OUT

AN ACCIDENT LEADING TO AN

INCIDENT.

CHINA IS ENGAGED IN VERY

DANGEROUS MANEUVERING, BOTH IN

THE AIR AND ON THE SEA.

AND SOMETHING CAN GO WRONG.

JUST THIS WEEK, WE HAVE A U.S.

CONGRESSIONAL DELEGATION IN

TAIWAN AND CHINA DECIDED TO DO

SOME MILITARY EXERCISES IN

TAIWAN'S AIRSPACE.

IN TERMS OF CHINA'S GROWING

NUCLEAR ARSENAL, WHAT DO YOU

THINK THE U.S. NEEDS TO DO?

THERE ARE SEVERAL THINGS.

RIGHT NOW THE STATE DEPARTMENT

SAYS THEY ARE ENGAGED IN

DIPLOMATIC TALKS WITH CHINA.

AND THAT IS IMPORTANT.

RIGHT NOW CHINA HAS THIS

STOCKPILE OF WEAPONS AND NO

ARMS CONTROL.

THE U.S. AND RUSSIA ARE PART OF

THE NEW START TREATY WHICH

BASICALLY REGULATES THE NUMBER

OF DEPLOYABLE WEAPONS THAT THEY

ARE ALLOWED TO HAVE.

CHINA IS NOT PART OF THAT.

YOU BETTER BELIEVE THAT IF THEY

CONTINUE TO MEET OR SURPASS

THESE PENTAGON PREDICTIONS,

THAT WASHINGTON AND MOSCOW ARE

GOING TO COME KNOCKING. AND

WANT TO BRING THEM INTO THE

ARMS CONTROL CONVERSATIONS.

SOMETHING ELSE TO WATCH, RIGHT

NOW THE U.S. IS INVOLVED IN A

NUCLEAR POSTURE REVIEW.

WHAT THAT IS, BASICALLY A REVIEW

OF THE NUCLEAR POLICY.

AND CHINA'S NUCLEAR POLICY IS A

NO FIRST USE POLICY, WHICH

MEANS THEY WOULD NOT USE A

NUCLEAR WEAPON UNLESS FIRST

ATTACKED USING A NUCLEAR

WEAPON.

WE DON'T HAVE THAT POLICY.

WHICH MANY EXPERTS BELIEVE, HAS

REALLY HELPED TO DETER

AGGRESSORS AND KEEP STABILITY.

IF THE POLICY WERE GOING TO

CHANGE, IT WOULD BE PART OF

THIS REVIEW.

EXPERTS LIKE CHANG SAY IT IS

IMPERATIVE THAT WE KEEP IT AS

IS, ESPECIALLY BASED ON WHAT WE

SEE FROM CHINA.

THANK YOU FOR THE REPORT.

LET ME ADD TO IT THAT, THIS IS

SOMETHING THAT CHINA IS

ABSOLUTELY BEING BELLICOSE.

THEY ARE TALKING VERY TOUGH TALK

. JUST IN THE PAST FEW DAYS,

THEY HAVE ASKED THEIR CITIZENS

TO STOCK UP ON BASIC SUPPLIES.

IN TAIWAN, THAT WAS INTERPRETED

AS, GET READY.

THEY ARE GETTING READY TO

BLOCKADE OUR PORTS AND BLOCKADE

OUR AIRPORT AND THEY WILL BE

EASILY ABLE TO DO THAT.

AND IN THAT BLOCKADE, LITERALLY

BEING BRINGING TAIWAN TO ITS

KNEES ECONOMICALLY SO TAIWAN

WILL SAY, WE WILL BECOME A

PROVINCE OF CHINA.

THIS IS SOMETHING THAT THE

CHINESE HAVE HAD DEEP IN THEIR

HISTORY.

THE WHOLE CONCEPT THAT THEY ARE

THE MIDDLE KINGDOM. IN TIMES

PAST. ALL OF THE SURROUNDING

NATIONS BROUGHT TRIBUTE TO THE

EMPEROR IN BEIJING.

AND THAT WAS THE MODE OF

OPERATION.

THEY STILL HOLD TO THAT.

ON TOP OF IT, THEY ARE DEEPLY

OFFENDED WITH THE WEST.

WITH THE THREE OPIUM WARS THAT

THE WESTERN POWERS FOUGHT, IN

ORDER TO OPEN CHINA BUT ALSO TO

KEEP THE OPIUM TRADE, KEEP

CHINESE CITIZENS ADDICTED TO

OPIUM.

AND THE TAIPING REBELLION, THEY

DEEPLY ARE OFFENDED BY THAT.

IN WORLD WAR II, THESE ARE

VIVID MEMORIES FOR THEM.

THEY WANT TO STAND ON THE WORLD

STAGE AND SAY, YOU NEED TO

RESPECT US. YOU NEED TO RESPECT

US AS THE MIDDLE KINGDOM.

THAT IS THEIR GOAL AND THEY

WILL PURSUE IT AND PURSUE IT

WITH ALL EARNESTNESS.

> NO RELIEF IN SIGHT FROM

INFLATION.

THE LABOR DEPARTMENT REPORTS

PRICES JUST KEEP RISING.

JOHN JESSUP HAS MORE ON THAT

STORY FROM OUR CBN NEWS BUREAU

IN WASHINGTON.> THE CONSUMER

PRICE INDEX ROSE AT A HIGHER

RATE THAN EXPECTED.

UP 6.2% OVER LAST OCTOBER.

THAT IS THE HIGHEST IN MORE

THAN 30 YEARS.

THIS ON TOP OF THE PRODUCER

PRICE INDEX, WHICH MEASURES

WHOLESALE PRICES SHOWING A

CHUNK OF 8.6% FROM LAST

OCTOBER.

THE BIGGEST LEAP IN 11 YEARS.

GAS AND AUTO PRICES DROVE THE

SURGE.

AS A BIDEN DEMONSTRATION

CONTINUES TO PUSH ITS VACCINE

EMPLOYER REQUIREMENTS, SOME

CHURCH LEADERS ARE JOINING

GOVERNORS AND CEOs TO STOP THE

MANDATE.

Reporter: EVEN AFTER A U.S.

APPEALS COURT TEMPORARILY

BLOCKED THE VACCINE MANDATE,

THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS

PUSHING BUSINESSES TO PROCEED.

MORE THAN HALF OF THE STATES,

SEVERAL BUSINESSES AND VOCAL

CHURCH LEADERS ARE SAYING, KNOW

NOW.

THE ISSUE IS A MANDATE THAT

THREATENS TO TURN A RELIGIOUS

INSTITUTION INTO AN ARM,

COERCIVE ARM OF THE STATE.

Reporter: THE PRESIDENT OF

THE SOUTHERN BAPTIST

THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY IS FULLY

VACCINATED.

AND HE ENCOURAGES HIS STUDENTS

TO GET THE SHOT.

HE HAS HOWEVER THE FEDERAL

MANDATE TRAMPLES RELIGIOUS

FREEDOMS.

WHICH IS WHY HE IS SUING THE

BIDEN ADMINISTRATION.

THERE IS NOT AN EXEMPTION

FOR RELIGIOUS EMPLOYERS.

THAT IS WHY WE HAVE FILED A

SUIT.

WE LOOK AT ISSUES IN WHICH THE

NATION IS DIVIDED.

WE SHOULD NOT BE SURPRISED THAT

PEOPLE OF CHRISTIAN COMBUSTION

ARE DIVIDED.

THERE IS A BASIC UNITY IN CHRIST

AND WE ARE LEANING INTO THAT.

BUT THIS IS OUT OF RESPECT FOR

THE DIFFERENCE OF CONVICTION.

AND THAT IS THE REASON WE HAVE

DONE THIS.

Reporter: HE JOINS A GROWING

LIST SUING THE GOVERNMENT.

BIDEN WANTS ALL FEDERAL

APPELLATE CASES CONSOLIDATED BY

NEXT WEEK.

ATTORNEYS AT A LINES DEFENDING

FREEDOM SAY IT IS POSSIBLE THE

U.S. SUPREME COURT COULD STEP

IN.

WE THINK IT IS A GROSS

VIOLATION OF THE CHURCH TOMMY.

NOT TO MENTION RELIGIOUS

FREEDOM UNDER THE RELIGIOUS

FREEDOM ACT AND FREE EXERCISE

CLAUSE.

Reporter: EVEN AFTER THE

COURT TEMPORARILY HALTED THE

MANDATE, THE WHITE HOUSE

BASICALLY ADVISED EMPLOYERS TO

IGNORE IT.

THE COURTS QUIETLY DEAL WITH

LEGAL BATTLES, THE LOUDER

POLITICAL IMPACT THE VACCINE

MANDATE AND MASKS REMAINS,

REGARDLESS WHERE CHRISTIANS

STAND ON THE ISSUES, HE SAID IT

IS VITAL TO BE AN EXAMPLE.

THIS IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY.

CHRISTIANS, SOME SOONER IN SOME

LATER BEING AWAKENED TO THE

ISSUES WE NOW FACE.

INCREASINGLY, SECULARIZING

SOCIETY, WE ARE GOING TO HAVE

TO BE EVERMORE VOCAL AND EVER

MORE ARTICULATE, RESPECTFULLY

ENGAGED BY CHRISTIAN

CONVICTION.

AND THAT IS OUR CALLING.

Reporter: NEW LAWSUITS

AGAINST THE MANDATE ARE COMING

IN DAILY IF NOT HOURLY.

THE MOST RECENT FILED ON BEHALF

OF U.S. NAVY SEALS APPLYING OR

RELIGIOUS EXEMPTIONS THAT THE

PENTAGON IS REFUSING TO GRANT.

> THESE LAWSUITS COMING FAST

AND FURIOUS.

ULTIMATELY, IT WILL BE UP TO

THE SUPREME COURT AND WE HAVE

SEEN THE INJUNCTION COMING OUT

OF THE FIFTH CIRCUIT.

THAT THREE-JUDGE PANEL,

APPOINTED BY REPUBLICAN

PRESIDENTS.

WE WILL SEE.

PROBABLY THE SUPREME COURT WILL

TAKE IT UP IN TIME, TO ACTUALLY

HAVE HEARINGS AND A DECISION BY

THE DEADLINE IN JANUARY, THAT

IS AN OPEN QUESTION.

IT IS INTERESTING TO SEE AN

ADMINISTRATION OPENLY

ENCOURAGING EMPLOYERS TO COMPLY

WITH A MANDATE, EVEN THOUGH

THEY HAVE BEEN ENJOINED. THAT

IS SOMETHING BRAND-NEW.

IT DEFINITELY SETS UP THE

ADMINISTRATION FOR AN ONGOING

BATTLE WITH OUR OWN COURTS.

IT IS NOT THE FIRST TIME WE

HAVE SEEN THAT.

BUT IT IS SURPRISING TO SEE A

RIGHT NOW.

IT IS ALSO SURPRISING TO SEE IT

IN A DEMOCRACY WHERE ELECTED

OFFICIALS ARE DEPENDENT ON THE

VOTE OF THE POPULATION TO TRY TO

UNFORCED UNPOPULAR MANDATES.

THEY ARE DUE FOR ANOTHER

ELECTION CYCLE AND IT IS

AMAZING TO ME THAT THEY WANT TO

MAKE HUGE NUMBERS OF PEOPLE,

TALKING 20 OR 30 MILLION

PEOPLE, MAD AT THE GOVERNMENT

FOR ENFORCING SOME KIND OF

VACCINE MANDATE. THAT EITHER

YOU GET VACCINATED OR YOU LOSE

YOUR JOB. THAT IS SERIOUS STUFF

WORK ARE FLOURISHING BETWEEN

ISRAEL AND THE ARAB NEIGHBORS

WHO ARE PART OF THE ABRAHAM

THIS HISTORIC ALLIANCE IS 14

MONTHS OLD AND THE PROGRESS IT

HAS CREATED IS DRAMATIC.

THE BIG QUESTION, WILL THE

LARGEST AND MOST POWERFUL ARAB

NATION JOIN IN?

CHRIS MITCHELL HAS THE LATEST

FROM JERUSALEM.

Reporter: AND ONE OF THE

LATEST SIGNS OF COOPERATION,

ISRAEL AND THE UNITED ARAB

EMIRATES SIGNED A JOINT VENTURE

TO SEND AN UNMANNED VEHICLE TO

THE MOON BY 2024.

THAT FOLLOWED A SURPRISE VISIT

LAST MONTH, DURING A

MULTINATIONAL MILITARY EXERCISE

AIR FORCE MET WITH HIS ISRAELI

COUNTERPART.

Reporter: THIS BEST-SELLING

AUTHOR CHRONICLES THE CREATION

AND PROGRESS OF THE ACCORDS IN

HIS LATEST BOOK, ENEMIES AND

ALLIES.

CBN NEWS HAS FOLLOWED HIM AS HE

HAS ORGANIZED DELEGATIONS OF

EVANGELICAL LEADERS TO MEET

WITH ARAB HEADS OF STATE.

I HAVE SAT WITH THEM AND I

HAVE LISTENED TO THEM.

BOTH BEFORE THE ABRAHAM

ACCRORDS AND KNOW THAT IT IS

OPEN.

THE ARAB LEADERS ARE VERY VERY

EXCITED.

NOT JUST WITH WHAT IS HAPPENING

IN THE LAST YEAR AND THREE

MONTHS, BUT WHERE THIS IS

GOING.

Reporter: ONE OF THE

AGREEMENTS ARCHITECTS, FORMER

SECRETARY OF STATE MIKE POMPEO

TELL CBN NEWS, HE SEES A BRIGHT

FUTURE FOR THE ABRAHAM ACCRORDS

.

I THINK THIS CHANGED

HISTORY.

I DON'T THINK IT WILL GO BACK.

I THINK THE PEOPLE OF THE

NATIONS CAN SEE THIS IS THE

RIGHTFUL JEWISH HOMELAND AND

OUGHT TO BE RECOGNIZED AS SUCH.

IT IS NOT GOOD FOREIGN-POLICY

TO HAVE THE DESTRUCTION OF

ISRAEL.

THE COMMERCE, THE TRADE,

DEFENSE WORK THAT WILL BE DONE

BETWEEN THESE NATIONS, WILL

CREATE PROSPERITY FOR PEOPLE.

THAT IS WHY THERE WILL BE MANY

OTHER NATIONS THAT WILL SEE

THIS AS RIGHT AND RIGHTEOUS.

Reporter: IN ISRAEL WHAT

BEGAN UNDER THE BENJAMIN

NETANYAHU GOVERNMENT IS

FOLLOWED UP BY PRIME MINISTER

BENNETT.

THE CONCERN IS WHETHER THE

BIDEN ADMINISTRATION WILL

INVEST THE POLITICAL CAPITAL

AND DIPLOMATIC MUSCLE TO

ADVANCE THE ACCORDS THIS RECENT

TRILATERAL MEETING BETWEEN THE

U.S., UAE AND ISRAEL, LED BY

SECRETARY OF STATE ANTONY

BLINKEN SUGGESTS A POSITIVE

DIRECTION.

TODAY OUR THREE COUNTRIES

DISCUSSED TWO NEW WORKING

GROUPS THAT WE ARE LAUNCHING

TOGETHER.

THE FIRST IS ON RELIGIOUS

COEXISTENCE.

THIS IS A MOMENT OF RISING ANTI-

SEMITISM, RISING ISLAMIC PHOBIA

AND WE WANT ISRAEL, UNITED ARAB

EMIRATES AND THE UNITED STATES

WORK TOGETHER TO BUILD

TOLERANCE AND ENSURE THAT ALL

RELIGIOUS GROUPS CAN WORSHIP IN

THEIR TRADITIONAL WAYS, WITHOUT

VIOLENCE, WITHOUT INTIMIDATION.

WITHOUT DISCRIMINATION.

Reporter: ANOTHER QUESTION

ONE YEAR INTO THE ACCORDS, WILL

SAUDI ARABIA, THE LARGEST AND

MOST INFLUENTIAL SUNNI ARAB

NATION, TAKE STEPS TO JOIN?

THE SHORT VERSION IS I

BELIEVE THE SAUDI'S ARE

WEIGHING RIGHT NOW AT THE

HIGHEST LEVELS, IS IT

INTERNATIONAL INTERESTS TO MAKE

PEACE WITH ISRAEL? SAYING

VERBALLY AND PRIVATELY THE

SAUDI'S ARE MOVING TOWARD

NORMALIZATION.

BUT THEY ARE NOT THERE YET.

THERE HAS BEEN A LOT OF

REPORTING AND WE STILL NEED TO

DO THAT, WHEN THAT HAPPENS AND

IF IT HAPPENS, I THINK IT WILL.

MY PREDICTION ON CBN NEWS IS

THAT I THINK THE SAUDI'S ARE

GOING TO MAKE THAT DECISION

THAT IT IS IN THE NATIONAL

INTEREST.

Reporter: OVERSHADOWING THE

SUCCESS OF ANY PIECE OF HER

REMAINS THE SPECTER OF A

NUCLEAR IRAN.

AND JUST WEEKS THE U.S. AND

OTHER NATIONS THAT SIGNED THE

ORIGINAL IRANIAN NUCLEAR DEAL

ARE SCHEDULED TO RESUME

NEGOTIATIONS.

IT IS A BAD DEAL TODAY.

I HOPE THE U.S. WILL NOT MAKE

THE MISTAKE AGAIN.

LOOK WHAT HAPPENED THE LAST SIX

YEARS.

THEY ENRICHED URANIUM.

THEY DEVELOPED BALLISTIC

MISSILE TECHNOLOGY.

THEY ARE SENDING BILLIONS OF

DOLLARS TO THEIR PROXIES.

IT WILL BE A MAJOR MISTAKE IF

THE U.S. AND OTHERS WILL

ACTUALLY JOIN THE AGREEMENT.

YOU NOT ONLY HAVE THE IRAN

THREAT BUT IRAN FORMING AN

ALLIANCE WITH TURKEY, AND

CHINA, THAT IS THE DARKNESS TO

THE EAST.

AND THE NORTH.

AND WE HAVE ALL THIS LIGHT TO

THE WEST.

TO USE A WEATHER ANALOGY, THOSE

ARE TWO BUILDING FRONTS AND

THERE IS ALWAYS THE DANGER THAT

WHEN THOSE FRONTS MEET, THERE

WILL BE A STORM.

Reporter: FOR MOST ACCOUNTS,

THE REPORT REFLECTS A

SUBSTANTIAL TRANSFORMATION IN

THE REGION.

WHILE THE SIGNING MEMBERS SEEM

RESILIENT, IT IS ALMOST CERTAIN

MIDDLE EAST OF OPPONENTS WILL

TEST THE RESOLVE.

IT WOULD BE WONDERFUL IF

SAUDI ARABIA JOINED IN WITH IT.

I WILL ADD TO THE PREDICTION

THAT YOU JUST HEARD FROM JOEL

ROSENBERG, THIS IS WHAT

SCRIPTURE SAYS.

THAT ISRAEL WILL DO WELL AT

PEACE WITH ALL OF ITS NEIGHBORS.

SAUDI ARABIA JOINING IN, THERE

IS ALREADY A PEACE AGREEMENT

WIH EGYPT AND WITH JORDAN.

WILL SAUDI ARABIA JOIN IN WITH

UAE AND THESE OTHER ARAB

NATIONS TO SAY, LET'S COME

TOGETHER?

LET'S SEE WHAT CAN HAPPEN WHEN

WE GIVE UP OUR CENTRAL IDEOLOGY

THAT ISRAEL HAS TO BE DRIVEN

INTO THE SEA.

WE WELCOME THEM INTO THE MIDDLE

EAST.

THIS IS THEIR ANCESTRAL

HOMELAND AND THEY HAVE A RIGHT

TO BE HERE.

WHAT A WONDERFUL THING.

IF WE CAN ONLY ADD LEBANON AND

SYRIA TO THE MIX, THE PROPHECY

IS FULFILLED.

AND WONDERFUL THINGS. THAT

WOULD BE ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC

TO SEE. THIS WOULD ALSO ISOLATE

THE PALESTINIANS. WOULD THEY

GIVE UP THEIR GOAL OF DRIVING

ISRAEL TO THE SEA?

AND WOULD THEY FINALLY COME TO

PEACE AND SAY, WE RECOGNIZE

ISRAEL'S RIGHT TO EXIST.

WE GIVE UP OUR GOAL OF DRIVING

THEM OUT.

WE GIVE UP TERRORISM AS A

TACTIC AND WE WANT TO HAVE PEACE

. THAT WOULD BE ABSOLUTELY

INCREDIBLE.

> UP NEXT, ONE OF THE

SCARIEST EMERGENCIES SHE HAS

EVER FACED THAT IS WHAT THIS ER

DOCTOR SAID ABOUT A PATIENT'S

BLOCKED AIRWAY. WHAT WAS

CHOKING HER AND WHY DIDN'T THE

DOCTOR INSERT A BREATHING TUBE

TO SAVE HER LIFE?

SEE FOR YOURSELF, RIGHT AFTER

THIS.

> LORRAINE BESSON WAS

STRUGGLING TO BREATHE.

THE EMERGENCY ROOM PHYSICIAN

KNEW SHE NEEDED TO BE INTUBATED

FAST.

WHY DID THE DOCTOR PUT DOWN THE

SCALPEL?

SEE FOR YOURSELF.

EMERGENCY MEDICAL POSITIONS,

WE SEE LACK OF AIR WHY.

I SAW HER AND I KNEW WE BETTER

DO SOMETHING AND DO A QUICK.

BECAUSE SHE WAS GOING DOWN

QUICK.

Reporter: IN MARCH 2016,

LORRAINE BESSON WENT TO THE

HOSPITAL FOR WHAT WAS SUPPOSED

TO BE A LOW RISK SPINAL FUSION

SURGERY.

HER SISTER-IN-LAW REMEMBERS THE

DAY.

I WAS WORRIED ABOUT HER.

IT WAS A SERIOUS SURGERY AND

THEY HAD TO GO IN FROM THE FRONT

TO WORK ON HER BACK.

IT SEEMED TO GO OKAY.

AND THEN WHEN SHE WAS AT HOME

LATER, THINGS KIND OF WENT

SOUTH.

Reporter: TWO DAYS LATER

WHILE AT HOME RECOVERING,

LORRAINE STRUGGLE TO BREATHE.

SHE WAS RUSHED TO THE HOSPITAL

BY AMBULANCE.

SOON AFTER, HER BROTHER GOT A

PHONE CALL WITH TERRIBLE NEWS.

SHE SAID SHE LOOKED LIFELESS.

I KNEW IT WAS A CRITICAL

SITUATION.

WHEN WE GOT THE FIRST CALL

ALL I COULD DO WAS PRAY.

AND ASK FOR GOD'S INTERCESSION

TO INTERVENE IN A SITUATION.

I KNEW IT WAS REALLY SERIOUS. I

DID NOT KNOW IF SHE WAS WANT TO

MAKE IT.

Reporter: IN THE EMERGENCY

ROOM, THE DOCTOR KNEW SOMETHING

WAS BLOCKING THE RAINS AIRWAY.

BUT WAS UNABLE TO INSERT A

BREATHING TUBE DUE TO THE

SWELLING INTERNET.

IT WAS OBVIOUS THAT SHE

NEEDED TO BE INTUBATED.

I LOOKED AT HER NECK AND I HAD

THE SENSE OF FOREBODING THAT,

THAT TOLD ME, THIS IS NOT AN

OPTION.

IT IS NOT A VIABLE OPTION TO GET

AN AIRWAY ON THIS PATIENT.

WE WERE ABLE TO KEEP HER

OXYGENATED WHILE WE WERE

WAITING FOR ANESTHESIA.

I CHOSE TO DO THAT, RATHER THAN

MAKE AN INCISION IN HER NECK.

Reporter: ANESTHESIOLOGISTS

ARRIVED AND WAS ABLE TO

ESTABLISH AN AIRWAY.

THEY FOUND THE SOURCE OF HER

SWELLING.

STEMMING FROM HER PREVIOUS

SURGERY. SHE HAD AN NICK IN

HER THYROID ARTERY.

AND THE BLOOD WAS SLOWLY

LEAKING OUT OF THAT ARTERY,

INTO HER NECK.

HAVE WE PUT AN INCISION IN HER

THROAT TO PUT A BREATHING TUBE

IN, SHE QUITE FRANKLY COULD

HAVE BLED TO DEATH RIGHT THERE

ON THE TABLE.

Reporter: SHE WAS MOVED TO

THE ICU ON A VENTILATOR ON A

GURNEY.

HER FAMILY CONTINUE TO PRAY.

WE PRAYED WITH HER IN THE

ROOM.

IT WAS FRIGHTENING TO SEE HER

LAYING ON HER BACK LIKE THAT.

Reporter: AFTER 10 DAYS

LORRAINE BEGAN BREATHING ON HER

OWN.

THE FAMILY WAS THANKFUL THAT

SHE WAS ALIVE. YET CONCERNED

SHE MAY HAVE SUFFERED BRAIN

DAMAGE DUE TO THE LACK OF

OXYGEN.

I'M NOT SURE WITHOUT OXYGEN

THAT LONG, THAT SHE WOULD HAVE

SEVERE DAMAGE TO HER COGNITIVE

FUNCTIONING.

Reporter: SHE WAS SENT TO

REHAB TO CONTINUE HER RECOVERY.

SHE WAS HAVING DIFFICULTY

THE FIRST FEW DAYS EVEN

RECALLING WHAT SHE DID THE

PREVIOUS HOUR.

AND SHE ALSO HAD A MILD

COMPONENT OF A BRAIN INJURY,

WHICH INDICATES THAT IN THE

PERIOD OF TIME HER AIRWAY WAS

BLOCKED, SHE WAS UNABLE TO GET

ADEQUATE BLOOD FLOW TO HER

BRAIN.

I DID HAVE CONCERNS THAT GIVEN

THE NATURE OF HER INJURY AND

THE SEVERITY OF IT THAT HER

TIME ON OUR UNIT COULD BE THREE

OR FOUR WEEKS POSSIBLY.

SHE WAS ABLE TO UNDERMINE MY

ORIGINAL ESTIMATION AND SHE GOT

OUT OF THE REHAB UNIT WITHIN 13

DAYS.

Reporter: LORRAINE MADE A

FULL RECOVERY.

SHE IS GRATEFUL FOR THE PRAYERS

AND MIRACLES THAT KEPT HER

ALIVE, EVERY STEP OF THE WAY.

I KNOW THAT JESUS IS ALIVE

AND WELL TODAY AND HE DOES

STILL DO MIRACLES.

I AM PROOF OF THAT.

I SHOULD NOT BE SITTING HERE

TELLING YOU MY STORY.

IT WAS ONLY THROUGH THE

INTERVENTION OF GOD. HE HAD HIS

HAND ON IT FROM THE BEGINNING

TO THE END.

FROM THE AMBULANCE ALL THE WAY

TO THE SURGERY.

WHERE I WAS ABLE TO BREATHE NOT

IN DANGER.

I AM A FIRM BELIEVER IN IF

GOD IS READY FOR YOU, YOU WILL

GO.

AND IF GOD IS NOT READY FOR

YOU, YOU ARE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.

I HAVE SEEN THIS HAPPEN TIME

AND TIME AGAIN.

I HAVE HEARD PEOPLE WALK INTO

MY ER AND SIX HOURS LATER THEY

ARE ON A VENTILATOR AND DEATHLY

ILL AND DIE.

I HAVE HAD THEM COME LIKE

LORRAINE BESSON, CRITICALLY ILL

ON DEATHS DOOR AND END UP

WALKING OUT OF THE HOSPITAL TWO

WEEKS LATER . AND ALL OF THIS,

PHYSICIANS PLAY A ROLE IN, BUT

THE ULTIMATE DECIDER OF WHO

SURVIVES AND WHO DOES NOT IS

GOD.

IT HAS BEEN FIVE YEARS SINCE

THIS HAPPENED.

I STILL ASKED PEOPLE,

STRANGERS, WOULD YOU LIKE TO

HEAR MY MIRACLE STORY?

I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW MANY

TIMES I'VE TOLD THEM MY STORY

AND THEY SAY, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

FOR TELLING ME YOUR STORY.

I NEEDED TO HEAR THAT TODAY.

PRAISE GOD.

WHAT AN AMAZING STORY.

I DO BELIEVE PEOPLE ARE

WATCHING AND SAYING THE SAME

THING.

THANK YOU, GOD.

I NEEDED TO SEE THAT. I NEEDED

THAT ENCOURAGEMENT. THAT YOU

HEAR MY PRAYERS I ALSO BELIEVE

THE LORD IS SAYING, DON'T GIVE

UP.

DON'T GIVE UP.

THERE IS POWER IN PREVAILING

PRAYER AND HE WANTS US TO KEEP

PRAYING AND KEEP BELIEVING THAT

HE IS GOING TO MOVE.

HE IS READY, WILLING AND ABLE

TO MOVE AND WHAT EVER SITUATION.

THAT ENCOURAGE MY FAITH AND WE

HAVE MORE ANSWER TO PRAYER.

MORE MIRACLES.

THIS IS THOMAS OF ARIZONA.

HE WAS DIAGNOSED WITH WALKING

PNEUMONIA.

WHILE STAYING HOME FROM WORK HE

WAS WATCHING THE 700 CLUB WHEN

GORDON SAID, THIS IS FOR

SOMEONE NAMED TOM.

THERE IS A CRINKLING IN YOUR

LUNGS AND GOD IS TAKING AWAY

FATIGUE.

TAKE A DEEP BREATH AND ALL THE

CRINKLING WILL BE GONE.

TOM IMMEDIATELY RECEIVED THIS

WORD AND IS NOW COMPLETELY

HEALED.

AMEN.

HERE IS BARBARA FROM IDAHO

WHO WRAPPED HER LEFT KNEE IN A

BANDAGE DUE TO SEVERE LIGAMENT

PAIN.

SHE WAS WATCHING THE 700 CLUB,

THERE IS TREMENDOUS PAIN IN

YOUR LEFT KNEE.

GOD HAS HEARD YOUR CRY AND

RESTORED EVERYTHING CONCERNING

YOUR KNEE.

ALL THE CARTLEDGE AND THE BONE

BEING KNIT TOGETHER PROPERLY

AND ENJOY BEING ESTABLISHED AND

EVERYTHING THAT IS NEEDED.

THE LIGAMENTS AND EVERYTHING IS

BEING RESTORED.

BE RELEASED FROM PAIN. AND

ASHLEY HAD A WORD ABOUT THE

SAME CONDITION.

BARBARA KNEW INSTANTLY IT WAS

FOR HER.

SHE TOOK OFF THE BANDAGE AND

HAS HAD NO PAIN. WANTED THAT BE

GREAT IF THAT HAPPENED TO YOU?

THAT YOU COULD TAKE OFF THE

BANDAGE AND THERE WOULD BE NO

PAIN AND EVERYTHING WILL BE

WHOLE AGAIN.

HERE IS ALL YOU NEED TO HOLD

ONTO.

JESUS.

HE IS THE SAME.

YESTERDAY, TODAY AND FOREVER.

YOU HAVE SEEN A WONDERFUL

MIRACLE STORY.

YOU JUST HEARD TWO MIRACLE

STORIES.

YOU CAN READ THE GOSPEL.

THERE ARE A BUNCH OF MIRACLE

STORIES. THIS IS THE JESUS WE

WARSHIP.

THIS IS THE JESUS WHO IS OUR

SAVIOR.

THIS IS THE JESUS WHO SAYS TO

YOU, I WILL REDEEM YOU WITH MY

OUTSTRETCHED ARMS.

LOOK TO HIM.

HE IS THE ONE WHO HAS DIED FOR

YOU.

HE IS THE ONE WHO HAS SHED HIS

BLOOD.

HE IS THE ONE WHO BY HIS

STRIPES, YOU ARE HEALED.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO, MAKE IT

VERY SIMPLE, DON'T MAKE IT

DIFFICULT.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO, BELIEVE IT.

IF YOU NEED HELP BELIEVING IT,

LOOK TO HIM. LOOK TO JESUS.

HE WILL HELP YOU WITH THAT.

LORD, I BELIEVE.

HELP MY UNBELIEF.

> STILL AHEAD, A FORMER NAVY

SEAL STRIKES UP FOR THE UCONN.

WHY DID THIS WARRIOR DECIDE TO

LIVE OFF THE GRID?

WHAT IS THE BIGGEST THREAT HE

HE WILL TELL YOU HIMSELF,

COMING UP.

> THREE BACK-TO-BACK

DEPLOYMENTS WITHIN FIVE YEARS.

AFTER THIS GRUELING DUTY,

FORMER NAVY SEAL BRIAN HEAPHY

WAS READY TO RETIRE FROM THE

MILITARY.

HE KNEW HE WAS LUCKY TO BE

ALIVE, SO WHY DID HE HAD TO THE

WILDERNESS OF ALASKA TO LIVE

OFF THE GRID, WHERE EVERY DAY

IS A STRUGGLE TO SURVIVE?

SEE FOR YOURSELF.

Reporter: AND FEWER THAN TWO

PEOPLE PER SQUARE MILE, ALASKA

HAS THE LOWEST POPULATION

DENSITY IN THE COUNTRY.

FOR PEOPLE LIKE BRIAN HEAPHY,

THAT IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST

REASONS TO LIVE HERE.

AFTER GRADUATING FROM THE NAVAL

ACADEMY AND A SUCCESSFUL CAREER

AS A U.S. NAVY SEAL, HE NEEDED

A CHANGE OF PACE.

DEPLOYMENTS WAS SIX MONTHS

LONG AND I DID THREE BACK-TO-

BACK DEPLOYMENTS.

I FELT VERY FORTUNATE TO STILL

BE ALIVE AT THE END OF THOSE

FIVE YEARS.

Reporter: AFTER RESIGNING

HIS COMMISSION, HE WENT BACK TO

HIS CHILDHOOD PASSION.

THE GREAT OUTDOORS.

I WAS VERY BLESSED TO BE

ABLE TO GROW UP IN A RURAL AREA.

THAT WAS ALWAYS MY DRAW TO THE

OUTDOORS OF THE WILDERNESS.

Reporter: HE TOOK A JOB AS A

RIVER GUIDE IN ALASKA AND LOVE

THE WIDE OPEN SPACES AND

CHALLENGES OF LIVING OFF GRID.

HIS MILITARY EXPERIENCE SERVES

HIM WELL WHEN HE IS ON HIS OWN.

PREPARATION, SELF-DISCIPLINE,

LEARNING TO FORM REALISTIC

GOALS ACCORDING TO THE TIME YOU

HAVE AVAILABLE.

THIS IS NOT A PASTIME OR

FITNESS.

THIS IS SURVIVAL.

THE PROBLEM IS, IT COMES WITH

ITS OWN SET OF RISKS.

IF YOU GET HURT OUT HERE IT IS

A LONG WAY TO THE NEAREST

HOSPITAL.

AND THAT MEANS YOU GOT TO BE

EXTRA CAREFUL AND VERY

METICULOUS WITHOUT.

A LITTLE MISTAKE AT 60

DEGREES BELOW ZERO IN THE DARK

CAN TURN INTO A LIFE-

THREATENING SCENARIO.

AND IT DOES SOME PEOPLE CALL IT

MURPHY'S LAW.

I CALL IT THE LAW OF OPPOSITION.

THERE ARE ALWAYS THINGS WORKING

AGAINST YOU.

Reporter: SURVIVAL IS ALL

ABOUT MAKING THE BEST USE OF

THE RESOURCES YOU HAVE

AVAILABLE.

BUT GETTING AWAY FROM

CIVILIZATION DOES NOT EQUATE TO

A STRESS FREE LIFE.

THERE IS ALWAYS MORE TO DO THAN

TIME TO DO IT.

LIVING HERE, AND ONE OF THE

MOST UNFORGIVING ENVIRONMENT ON

THE PLANET I WOULD CONSIDER IT

BECAUSE OF THE COLD AND

DARKNESS AND RAPID CHANGE OF

SEASON, YOU BEGIN TO LEARN AND

FOCUS ON ECONOMY OF TIME.

THERE IS ONLY SO MANY HOURS IN

A DAY.

IT DOES ADD A SENSE OF URGENCY

AND INTENSITY AND REVEALS TO

YOU WHAT REALLY IS IMPORTANT.

WHAT REALLY DOES MATTER.

A LOT OF WHAT GOES ON IN THE

WORLD DOES NOT MATTER.

LIVING OUT IN SUCH VAST

COUNTRY, YOU REALIZE HOW SMALL

YOU ARE AND VULNERABLE AND

FRAGILE.

LEARNING TO MOVE WITH PURPOSE

AND FORM A CAREFUL PLAN, EACH

STRIKE OF AN AX, I WOULD RATHER

DO SOMETHING WELL ONCE THEN

HAVE TO GO BACK AND DO IT TWICE,

WHEN I HAVE OTHER THINGS TO DO.

Reporter: WITH ALL THE

DANGERS HE HAS CONFRONTED IN 20

YEARS LIVING IN THE BUSH, HE

HAS DISCOVERED THAT NATURE IS

NOT THE BIGGEST THREAT HE

FACES. THE GREATEST DANGER TO

ME IS ME.

IF I AM NOT DISCIPLINED.

AND I DON'T KEEP GOD IN THE

FIRST PLACE IN MY LIFE.

IT IS AS SIMPLE AS THAT.

Reporter: HE HAS LEARNED

THAT BY LIVING AN INTENTIONAL

LIFE, EVERY TOUR CAN BECOME A

SPIRITUAL ACT OF WORSHIP.

GETTING WOOD, HAULING WATER,

COOKING, CLEANING, KEEPING

AHEAD OF THE SEASONAL CHANGES

IN MAKING SURE YOU ARE STOCKED

UP.

EXERCISING YOUR BODY, WHICH IS

NOT TOO HARD TO DO.

I THINK MY LIFE WOULD BEST BE

DESCRIBED AS THE PERFECTION OF

VITAL ACTIVITY.

THAT IS WHAT I ENGAGE IN.

HOW CAN I BECOME BETTER AT ANY

GIVEN TASK TO BECOME MORE

EFFICIENT OR SAFE OR PRODUCTIVE?

THERE IS A JOY IN THAT.

Reporter: HE HAS TAKEN THE

LESSONS HE HAS LEARNED LIVING

OFF THE GRID AND PUT THEM INTO

DEVOTIONAL FORM.

BOTH WITH SCRIPTURE BASED

GREETING CARDS CONTAINING HIS

OWN PHOTOGRAPHY AND IN HIS NEW

BOOK, CRYSTAL VISION.

IT IS FOR BELIEVERS AND

NONBELIEVERS ALIKE TO CONSIDER

ETERNAL THINGS.

Reporter: IRONICALLY, ONE OF

THE BIGGEST LESSONS HE HAS

LEARNED SPENDING YEARS BY

HIMSELF, IS THE IMPORTANCE OF

FELLOWSHIP.

IT IS GOOD TO HAVE A

GETAWAY, WHERE YOU CAN DRAW

NEAR TO GOD AND FOCUS ON HIM

AND PRAY HE WILL REVEAL MORE OF

HIS CHARACTER AND REVEAL MORE

OF HIS WISDOM.

THERE IS NO WISDOM IF YOU DON'T

GROW.

FELLOWSHIP IS A HUGE PART OF

THE CHRISTIAN WALK.

WE ARE STRENGTHENED BY BROTHERS

AND SISTERS AND WITH OUR TRUE

FRIENDS AND BROTHERS AND

SISTERS WILL POINT OUT WHERE WE

MIGHT BE SKIPPING OR THERE MAY

BE SIN IN OUR LIFE THAT WE

DON'T NOTICE.

MY INITIAL PURPOSE IN GOING

OUTSIDE AND BEING ON MY OWN AND

DEVELOPING THIS LIFE, I HAD A

GENERAL IDEA OF WHAT I WANTED.

BUT THERE IS THAT OLD SAYING,

MAKE YOUR PLANS IN PENCIL AND

GIVE GOD THE ERASER.

IT ALL WORKS TOGETHER

BEAUTIFULLY.

WHAT AN INCREDIBLE STORY AND

SCENERY.

THE BOOK IS CALLED CRYSTAL

VISION.

IT IS AVAILABLE NATIONWIDE.

THAT STORY MADE YOU WANT TO

GO TO THE ALASKAN WILDERNESS.

I WANT TO GO TO ALASKA BUT

MAYBE NOT LIKE THAT.

I WANT TO ENJOY IT AND STAY IN

A HOTEL.

I AM SENSING A CRUISE.

I WOULD NOT MIND THAT.

MAYBE WAIT A COUPLE YEARS.

> NOW WE WILL TALK ABOUT

DRINKING.

A FIFTH OF LIQUOR A DAY THAT IS

WHAT BILL BEGAN DRINKING AFTER

HIS CROPS WERE DESTROYED AND HE

LOST HIS LAND TO BANKRUPTCY.

THEN HE HEARD A MESSAGE ONE DAY

THAT TURNED HIS LIFE AROUND.

WHAT WAS IT?

AND HOW DID IT RESTORE

EVERYTHING HE LOST?

SEE FOR YOURSELF.

Reporter: RETIRED FROM HIS

LONG CAREER WITH THE UNIVERSITY

OF GEORGIA AGRICULTURAL

SERVICES, BILL McKINNON

REMEMBERS HOW GOD RESCUED HIM

FROM RUIN. IT GOT SO BAD WHEN

I WAS DRINKING A FIFTH OF

SCOTCH LIQUOR A DAY.

AND SOMETIMES MORE THAN THAT.

I CONTEMPLATED SUICIDE.

Reporter: INSECTS DESTROYED

HIS 500 ACRE ORCHARD AND THIS

FORCED THEM INTO BANKRUPTCY

WHERE HE LOST THE LAND AND

EQUIPMENT AT AUCTION.

HIS WIFE OF 59 YEARS SAID SHE

CRIED OUT TO GOD TO HELP HIM.

I WOULD GET ON MY KNEES AT

NIGHT AND TELL THE LORD, THIS

IS NOT THE MAN I MARRIED.

I KNOW WHAT MY HUSBAND IS LIKE

AND THE DEVIL IS RULING HIM NOW.

Reporter: IT WAS NOT UNTIL

1983 THAT BILL SHOWED UP AT A

GOSPEL MEN'S BUSINESS MEETING.

I MADE THE STATEMENT, IF YOU

ARE NOT 100% SURE YOU ARE SAFE,

YOU ARE LOST.

INSTANTLY, INSTANTLY, THE HOLY

SPIRIT, I RECEIVED THE BAPTISM

OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND HE

DELIVERED ME.

I NEVER TOOK ANOTHER DRINK OF

ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES.

IT HAD A TREMENDOUS INFLUENCE

WITH OUR CHILDREN.

THEY SAW THEIR DADDY AS A

DIFFERENT PERSON AND THEY LIKE

TO THAT PERSON.

AND THEY KNEW IT WAS REAL.

Reporter: FROM THAT POINT

FORWARD HE AND GINGER WANTED TO

TRUST GOD WITH EVERYTHING.

EVEN THEIR FINANCES.

WE WOULD WRITE A CHECK TO

THE CHURCH OCCASIONALLY.

BUT THAT WAS ABOUT ALL.

WE GOT THIS REVELATION FROM

THE LORD.

I NEEDED TO HONOR HIM WITH

OFFERINGS.

I OPENED UP A TITHE ACCOUNT IN

OUR BANK.

Reporter: A WORD OF

KNOWLEDGE ON THE 700 CLUB

ENCOURAGED BILL ABOUT HIS

FINANCES AND THE BANKRUPTCY

DEBT.

GOD WANTS TO BLESS YOU.

AT THE END OF THIS YEAR THERE

WILL BE A TREMENDOUS OUTPOURING

OF FINANCIAL BLESSING FOR YOU,

FOR CBN AND EVERYBODY.

I SAID, GOD WILL SHOW UP.

Reporter: WITHIN MONTHS FOUR

TAX OVERPAYMENT REFUNDS ARRIVED

IN THE MAIL.

IT HELPED PAY OLD CREDITORS AND

GROW CONFIDENT THEY COULD TRUST

GOD WITH THEIR FINANCES.

I SAID OKAY, WE WILL TAKE

10% OFF THE TOP.

WE DID THAT AND IT MOVED TO 20%.

IT HAS JUST BEEN AMAZING EVER

SINCE.

Reporter: EVEN AFTER HE

RETIRED AND HE PASTORED A

CHURCH MORE THAN 20 YEARS, THEY

SAY TITHING 20% HAS NEVER OF

GIVING GOD SUPPLY.

THIS HAPPENS EVERY MONTH.

I GET THROUGH PAYING THE BILLS

AND I HAVE A NICE BALANCE LEFT.

I AM SO THANKFUL.

WE SIT DOWN AND SAY DID YOU

BELIEVE WE WOULD HAVE THIS?

WOULD YOU HAVE BELIEVED THIS

YEARS AGO?

I WOULD'VE SAID, NO.

BUT IT HAS ALL BEEN GOD.

THE MORE YOU GIVE, I BELIEVE

THE SCRIPTURE SAYS, GIVE AND IT

WILL BE GIVEN TO YOU

OVERFLOWING.

THAT IS GOD'S WORD AND HIS

WORDS WILL WORK IF WE WORK IT.

Reporter: A PART OF THEIR

GIVING GOES TO CBN.

GOD IS WORKING THROUGH THE

700 CLUB. THEY ARE IMPACTING

PEOPLE'S LIVES ACROSS THE

WORLD.

Reporter: IN THESE

FINANCIALLY UNCERTAIN TIMES FOR

MANY PEOPLE, THEY WANT YOUNGER

GENERATIONS TO KNOW THAT

OBEYING GOD'S WORD ABOUT

TITHING AND GIVING CAN BE THE

BEGINNING OF A NEW FINANCIAL

FUTURE.

GOD IS AMAZING.

FOR YEARS, WE DON'T KNOW

ANYBODY ANYTHING.

WE ARE SAVING MONEY.

TRUST GOD.

TRUST HIM FIRST. AND DO WHAT HE

WANTS YOU TO DO.

IF IT IS AN ACT OF FAITH IN

THE WORD OF GOD, GOD ALWAYS

BACKS UP HIS WORD.

HE WILL BACK IT UP FOR YOU.

IF YOU WANT TO START A LIFE OF

TITHING , IT IS NOT ON-AGAIN

OFF-AGAIN AND IT IS NOT A

HEAVENLY LOTTERY.

IT DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY.

IT IS A LIFE OF FAITHFULNESS.

A LIFE DEDICATED TO GIVING AND

BEING GENEROUS WITH THAT AND

BEING CHEERFUL WITH THAT.

AND WHEN YOU DO THAT, GOD

STANDS BY HIS WORD TO PERFORM

IT.

IF YOU WANT TO START A LIFE OF

TITHING, CALL US AT 1-800-700-

> I THINK WE HAVE TIME FOR A

QUICK EMAIL. MY HUSBAND I

BOTH BELIEVE BUT I AM ANXIOUS

BECAUSE I WAS TOLD IF I DON'T

GO TO CHURCH OR READ THE BIBLE

I WILL NOT GO TO HEAVEN.

IS MY SOUL ?

ALL WHO CALL UPON THE NAME

OF THE LORD SHALL BE SAVED.

IT DOES NOT SAY ALL WHO GO TO

CHURCH EVERY SUNDAY OR ALL WHO

READ THE BIBLE EVERY DAY.

IT IS ALL WHO CALL UPON THE

NAME OF THE LORD.

SHALL BE SAVED.

THAT IS YOU.

DON'T MAKE IT HARD.

THE SALVATION THAT JESUS HAS

PROVIDED IS HIS BLOOD, HIS

SACRIFICE, HIS SOUL AS A

SACRIFICE FOR YOUR SIN.

YOU CANNOT WORK FOR THAT.

YOU CANNOT ADD TO THAT.

YOU BELIEVE THAT.

YOU CALL UPON HIS NAME.

AND YOU ARE SAVED.

I DO NOT LIKE IT WHEN PEOPLE

ADD THINGS TO IT AND SAY WHAT

YOU'VE GOT TO REPENT COMPLETELY

AND YOU GOT TO DO THIS.

ALL OF THESE THINGS.

DO NOT QUESTION SALVATION.

SALVATION IS BASED ON THE

CROSS.

HERE IS A PICTURE FOR YOU.

THERE WAS ONE THIEF ON THE

CROSS AND WHAT HE SAID IS,

REMEMBER ME WHEN YOU COME INTO

YOUR KINGDOM.

HE DID NOT REPENT.

HE DID NOT REPAY WHAT HE STOLE.

HE DID NOT DO THAT.

HE WAS NOT EVEN BAPTIZED JESUS

SAID TO HIM, THIS DAY, YOU WILL

BE WITH ME IN PARADISE WE DO

WITH THESE WORDS, REMEMBERING

THE WORDS OF THE LORD JESUS

THAT HE SAID, IT IS MORE

BLESSED TO GIVE THAN TO RECEIVE

. FOR ALL OF US, GOD BLESS AND
