CLUB.
> WELCOME TO THE SPECIAL
EDITION.
IT IS GOOD TO BE BACK IN THE
SEAT ON THIS DAY IN THE MONTH.
THIS IS THE DAY YOU TAKE
CONTROL OF THE SHOW.
ALL ACROSS AMERICA YOU CALLED
AND LEFT YOUR VOICEMAIL
QUESTIONS.
AND TODAY YOU WILL HEAR YOUR
VOICES ON THE AIR AND HOPEFULLY
FROM THE YOU WILL GET ANSWERS.
THAT IS COMING UP.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE NEWS.
> A TIDAL WAVE OF IMMIGRANTS.
1.7 MILLION IN THE FIRST NINE
MONTHS OF JOE BIDEN'S
PRESIDENCY.
YESTERDAY, REPUBLIC SONS ON THE
SENATE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE
GRILLED THE HOMELAN SECRETARY
ON THE SOARING CRISIS.
THE BIG ISSUE IS THE
ADMINISTRATION ENCOURAGING
ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS TO CROSS THE
SOUTHERN BORDER.
Reporter: SECRETARY MAYORKAS
ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THE NUMBER OF
MIGRANTS ILLEGALLY CROSSING THE
BORDER WAS EXTREMELY LOW DURING
THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION AND
SINCE BIDEN TOOK OFFICE, THE
NUMBER HAS BEEN HISTORICALLY
HIGH.
HE MAINTAINS TRUMP POLICIES
BROKE THE SYSTEM AND THOSE PUT
IN PLACE BY THE BIDEN
ADMINISTRATION COMBINED WITH
LEGISLATION WILL FIX IT.
WE MUST INVEST IN ADDRESSING
ROOT CAUSES, CREATING LEGAL
PATHWAYS AND INSURANCE WITH
ADJUDICATION OF ASYLUM CLAIMS.
THE IMMIGRATION SYSTEM IS
FUNDAMENTALLY BROKEN.
A FACT THAT EVERYONE AGREES
UPON.
CONGRESS MUST PASS LEGISLATION
TO FIX IT.
Reporter: REPUBLICAN
LAWMAKERS SAY IT IS LACK OF
ENFORCEMENT THAT HAS MIGRANTS
FLOODING INTO THE U.S.
BETWEEN JANUARY 1 AND
SEPTEMBER 30 OF THIS YEAR, THE
TIME PERIOD IN WHICH PRESIDENT
BIDEN HAS BEEN IN OFFICE, IT
HAS BEEN ABOUT 1.7 MILLION
ILLEGAL CROSSERS THAT HAVE BEEN
ENCOUNTERED AT OUR SOUTHERN
BORDER.
THIS DOES NOT SUGGEST
OPERATIONAL CONTROL.
SENATOR, WE ARE ENFORCING
THE LAWS THAT CONGRESS PASSED.
INDIVIDUALS WHO MAKE A CLAIM
FOR ASYLUM, WHO ARE ENCOUNTERED
UPON ILLEGAL CROSSING AT THE
BORDER ARE PLACED INTO
IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT
PROCEEDINGS, ARE ABLE TO MAKE
THE CLAIM FOR ASYLUM BEFORE AN
IMMIGRATION JUDGE, AND IF THEIR
CLAIM IS SUCCESSFUL, UNDER THE
LAW THEY ARE ABLE TO STAY HERE.
IF THEIR CLAIM IS UNSUCCESSFUL,
THEY ARE REMOVED FROM THE
UNITED STATES.
Reporter: HE CALLED MIGRANTS
WHO FAILED TO REPORT AN
ENFORCEMENT PRIORITY.
SAYING THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE
TO SIMPLY DISAPPEAR INTO THE
UNITED STATES.
HE STRESSED THAT POINT
FREQUENTLY AFTER SEVERAL MEDIA
REPORTS CITED LEAKED
IMMIGRATION DOCUMENTS THAT SOME
LAWMAKERS BELIEVE CONTRADICT
DHS ENFORCEMENT POLICY.
ONE DOCUMENT ALLEGEDLY READS
QUOTE, DON'T WORRY IF YOU ARE
PAST THE 60 DAY DEADLINE TO
REPORT FROM THE TIME YOU ENTER
THE UNITED STATES. COME IN SO
YOU CAN HELP ENSURE THE BEST
OUTCOME FOR YOUR CASE.
HE ALSO SAID HE DOES NOT
BELIEVE THE CURRENT
ADMINISTRATION'S PLAN TO PAY
$450,000 FAMILIES SEPARATED AT
THE BORDER OTHER TRUMP ERA
POLICIES, WILL ENTICE MORE
PEOPLE TO COME.
THE SETTLEMENT PAYMENT OF
THE FEDERAL TORT CLAIM CHARGE,
ARISING FROM A FAMILY SEPARATION
EFFECTED UNDER THE PRIOR
ADMINISTRATIONS ZERO-TOLERANCE
POLICY, WOULD NOT BE A FACTOR.
THAT IS MY TESTIMONY.
UNDERSTOOD.
THAT IS NEWS THAT YOU THINK
THESE PAYMENTS TO ILLEGAL
IMMIGRANTS WOULD NOT BE A FACTOR
AND PAYING THEM WILL NOT
ENCOURAGE MORE ILLEGAL
IMMIGRATION.
THAT IS NEWS.
Reporter: DEMOCRATIC
LAWMAKERS LARGELY STAYED AWAY
FROM BORDER SECURITY DURING THE
HEARING.
WHILE SECRETARY MAYORKAS WAS IN
THE LINE OF FIRE, THE
REPUBLICANS HOLD THE WHITE
HOUSE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE
BORDER CRISIS.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, I WANT
TO MAKE AN ANNOUNCEMENT MYSELF.
I AM HAVING TWO SPECIAL EVENTS.
ONE OF MY GRANDCHILDREN WILL
HAVE A CHILD AND IT IS THE 23rd
GREAT-GRANDCHILD.
AND I HAVE BEFORE ME MY NEW
BOOK I HAVE WRITTEN, AND IT IS
THE 23rd BOOK.
IT IS ABOUT DAVID.
IT IS CALLED THE SHEPHERD KING.
THIS GOES ALL THE WAY BACK TO
THE CREATION OF THE EARTH.
WE TALK ABOUT ABRAHAM AND GOD'S
PLAN FOR SALVATION.
WE TALK ABOUT DAVID AND HOW HE
WALKED WITH GOD.
IT IS A FUN BOOK.
MAYBE ONE OF THE BEST I HAVE
WRITTEN.
AND I WILL GIVE YOU A COPY.
THANK YOU.
WE WERE TALKING ABOUT, WE HAVE
BEEN TO FLORENCE AND SEEN THE
STATUE OF DAVID.
WITHOUT A DOUBT IS ONE OF THE
MOST BELOVED AND FASCINATING
CHARACTERS IN THE BIBLE. I
WROTE THE BOOK ABOUT THE THINGS
HE DID.
EVEN IN REVELATION JESUS SAID,
I AM THE OFFSPRING OF DAVID.
TODAY IN THE CITY OF DAVID, A
SAVIOR IS BORN.
IT WAS FUN TO WRITE IT.
THIS COULD BE ONE OF THE BEST.
IT IS NOT PUBLISHED YET.
BUT YOU'VE GOT AN ADVANCE COPY.
> UP NEXT.
YOU CALLED AND PAT WILL ANSWER
YOUR VOICEMAIL QUESTIONS.
GARCIA FROM IOWA AND HALEY FROM
NORTH CAROLINA AND DONNA FROM
OREGON, YOU ARE UP FIRST SO
STAY TUNED.
STAY TUNED.
> WELCOME BACK TO THE SPECIAL
EDITION OF THE 700 CLUB.
WE HAVE HAD AND YOUR VOICEMAIL
CALLS AND WE WILL START WITH
GARCIA FROM MADRID, IOWA.
GO AHEAD.
MY QUESTION FOR MR.
ROBERTSON IS, WILL MAN HAVE
FREE WILL WHEN HE GETS TO
HEAVEN?
AND IF SO, WHAT COULD BE THE
CONSEQUENCES OF THAT?
I THINK THAT IS ONE WE DON'T
KNOW THE TOTAL ANSWER TO.
IN HEAVEN WE WILL BE IN THE
PRESENCE OF GOD.
OUR WHOLE THINKING WILL BE
CONSUMED WITH THE GLORY OF GOD.
WHY WOULD WE WANT TO DO
SOMETHING DIFFERENT?
WE HAVE FREE WILL NOW. THAT IS
THE WAY HE MADE US.
HE GAVE US FREE WILL.
WE ARE A CONSCIOUS, MORAL
BEING.
WE KNOW THE CONSEQUENCES OF OUR
ACTION.
BUT AT THE SAME TIME HE HAS NOT
BOUND US WITH ANY RULES AND
REGULATIONS.
TO KEEP US FROM HAVING FREE
WILL.
WHEN YOU GET TO HEAVEN, I THINK
IT WILL BE A DIFFERENT SCENARIO.
I AGREE.
HALEY FROM LINCOLNTON, NORTH
CAROLINA. WHY DO SOME PEOPLE
GO THROUGH MORE TRIALS AND
TRIBULATIONS THAN OTHERS?
I WAS READING THE OTHER DAY
IN SECOND CORINTHIANS ABOUT
PAUL AND WHAT THAT MAN SUFFERED
. CAN YOU IMAGINE BEING BEATEN
FIVE TIMES WITH 39 LASHES?
AND THEN BEING CANED AND MEANT
SPENDING A NIGHT AND A DAY IN
THE DEEP.
HE MUST HAVE SUFFERED
UNBELIEVABLE BUT SOME PEOPLE
GET THROUGH SCOT-FREE. WHY IS
IT?
I DON'T KNOW.
I KNOW, PAUL SAID IF YOU LIVE
GODLY IN CHRIST JESUS, YOU ARE
GOING TO GO THROUGH PRESSURES.
WE HAVE ALL HAD PRESSURES AND
HAVE HAD SUFFERING.
SOME IS MORE INTENSE THAN
OTHERS.
I HONESTLY DON'T KNOW WHY.
YOU ARE RIGHT.
IT DOES EXIST.
MAYBE HE HAD TO GO THROUGH
ALL THAT SO HE COULD SAY, MY
GRACE IS SUFFICIENT.
THAT IS WHAT HE TOLD PAUL.
THE ABUNDANCE OF REVELATION,
GOD PUT WITH HIM AND ANGEL.
HE SAID WOULD YOU PLEASE TAKE
IT AWAY AND JESUS SAID, MY
GRACE IS SUFFICIENT.
HE DID SUFFER.
YEARS DOWN THE ROAD, I HAVE
HAD MY SHARE OF TRIALS.
NOTHING COULD EVEN COMPARE WITH
WHAT PAUL WENT THROUGH.
DONNA FROM ATLANTA, OREGON
HAS THIS QUESTION. GLAD TO
HAVE YOU BACK ON.
MY QUESTION TODAY IS ABOUT ONE
OF THE 10 COMMANDMENTS.
THOU SHALL HONOR THY MOTHER AND
THY FATHER AND I WILL GIVE YOU
A LONG LIFE. BUT WHAT IF YOU
CHILDREN DON'T KEEP THAT
COMMITMENT?
DOES GOD SHORTEN THEIR LIVES?
THIS IS SOMETHING I THINK ABOUT
OFTEN.
THE WORD ON HER WHICH MEANS
TO GIVE WEIGHT TO.
I THINK THE IDEA IS YOU GIVE
WEIGHT.
AND WHAT DID JESUS SAY, HE SAID
YOU HAVE TAKEN WHAT BELONGS TO
YOUR PARENTS. AND IT IS
DEDICATED TO GOD AND THEREFORE
YOU DON'T HAVE TO GIVE IT TO
THEM.
THAT IS HOW YOU FRUSTRATE THE
COMMANDMENTS.
YOUR QUESTION HAS TO DO WITH
SHORTEN YOUR LIFE? YES.
YOU HAVE A LONG LIFE IF YOU
HONOR YOUR MOTHER AND FATHER.
MOTHERS AND FATHERS GIVE WISE
ADVICE TO MOST KIDS.
THERE ARE KIDS THAT GO WILD AND
SHOOT DRUGS AND ARE IN PRISON
AND SO FORTH.
IF THEY HAD HONOR THEIR
PARENTS, THEIR LIVES WOULD NOT
BE CUT SO SHORT.
BUT THERE ARE MANY KIDS WHO END
UP IN JUVENILE DETENTION
BECAUSE THEY DID NOT ON OTHER
PARENTS.
HERE IS BILL FROM VANCOUVER,
WASHINGTON.
I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT
TATTOOING.
IS THERE ANYWHERE IN THE NEW
TESTAMENT THAT TALKS ABOUT
TATTOOING OF THE BODY?
IT IS NOT IN THE NEW
TESTAMENT BUT IT IS IN THE OLD
TESTAMENT.
IT IS A HEATHEN PRACTICE.
AND WE ARE WARNED AGAINST IT.
I THINK ANYBODY WHO GETS A
TATTOO, IS ASKING FOR TROUBLE.
INDEED, IT IS DEMONIC.
AND IT IS PROHIBITED IN THE OLD
TESTAMENT.
I AM NOT FAMILIAR WITH ANYTHING
IN THE NEW TESTAMENT THAT TALKS
ABOUT TATTOOS.
SO MANY YOUNG PREACHERS AND
EVEN OLD PREACHERS HAVE THEM.
THEY HAVE A LOT OF THINGS
THAT ARE WRONG.
WE ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO MARK OUR
BODIES.
THE BODY IS A TEMPLE OF THE
HOLY SPIRIT.
AND WE ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO
DEFACE THAT TEMPLE.
AND TO PUT ALL THE JUNK ON
THESE THINGS, THERE IS A SHOW
CALLED L.A.
INK.
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU HAVE SEEN
IT BUT PEOPLE GET THESE UNGODLY
TATTOOS.
I AM DID NOT I AM GLAD YOU
DID NOT GET ONE.
THEY WERE NOT GIVING TATTOOS.
> THIS IS FROM MOORESTOWN,
NEW JERSEY.
I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A
QUESTION ANSWERED IN REGARD TO
TITHING.
IS THE REQUIRED MINIMUM
DISTRIBUTION FROM A 401(K)
CONSIDERED INCOME FOR THE
CALENDAR YEAR? IN TERMS OF THE
FIRST 10% IN YOUR TYPING?
I THINK IT IS.
I AM NOT ONE WHO IS A LEGALIST
IN RELATION TO THE TITHE.
WE GIVE THAT OFFERING BECAUSE
WE LOVE HIM AND TO BE BLESSED.
I WOULD THINK A MINIMUM
DISTRIBUTION COMING FROM A
401(K) THAT HAS NOT BEEN TAXED,
WOULD BE PART OF YOUR INCOME
AND THEREFORE THE GOVERNMENT
WANTS THAT PEACE.
I THINK WOULD BE NICE TO TITHE
AS WELL.
IF YOU WANT TO GET BLESSED
FINANCIALLY, THE WAY TO DO IT
IS TO GIVE.
I REALLY PREFER TO GIVE TO
SOMETHING THAN TO RECEIVE IT
MYSELF.
THAT IS A WAY OF GETTING A
BLESSING.
JIMMY FROM VIRGINIA BEACH,
VIRGINIA HAS THIS QUESTION.
MY QUESTION IS CONCERNING
CHINA.
IS THERE A PROPHECY IN THE
BIBLE CONCERNING CHINA? THE
RISE TO POWER WE SEE CURRENTLY
HAPPENING IN THE WORLD?
JUST WONDERING HOW CHINA FITS
INTO END TIMES PROPHECY OR IF
THERE MENTIONED.
THEY TALK ABOUT THE
EUPHRATES DRYING UP IN THE WAY
BEING MADE FOR THE KINGS OF THE
EAST AND A COUPLE HUNDRED
MILLION AS I RECALL.
IT IS A LITTLE VAGUE.
THEY DID NOT SAY THIS IS CHINA.
MY THOUGHT ABOUT CHINA IN THE
EARLY DAYS WAS IT WAS GOING TO
BECOME THE MOST CHRISTIAN
NATION ON THE EARTH.
THEY WERE MOVING TOWARD THE
LORD IN SUCH A GREAT FASHION.
AND THE PRESIDENT IS A MONSTER.
IS PUT RESTRICTIONS ON THE
PEOPLE AND HE IS TRYING TO TEAR
DOWN CHURCHES AND PROHIBIT THE
BUILDING OF CHURCHES AND
REEDUCATED THE UIGHURS.
HE WANTS TO PUT THEM IN
CONCENTRATION CAMPS.
GENOCIDE AGAINST THE UIGHURS.
THE ANSWER IS, READ REVELATION
AND SEE WHAT IS IN THEIR.
VELMA FROM NEW MEXICO. MY
QUESTION FOR PAT, DO YOU BELIEVE
YOUR LOVED ONES CAN CONTACT YOU
AFTER THEY HAVE PASSED AWAY?
THERE IS SOMETHING CALLED A
FAMILIAR SPIRIT AND I THINK
THEY ARE DEMONIC SPIRITS THAT
TRIED TO POSE AS YOUR LATE AND
OR YOUR MOTHER OR FATHER OR
SOMETHING.
I DON'T THINK. THE BIBLE SAYS
THERE IS A GULF BETWEEN US.
AND I DON'T THINK THE DEAD ARE
ALLOWED TO COME AND TALK TO THE
LIVING.
I THINK PSYCHICS ARE PLAYING ON
PEOPLE BUT I THINK THEY ARE
FRAUDS.
THERE IS A DEMONIC PRESENCE.
A FAMILIAR SPIRIT.
BUT I DO NOT THINK LOVED ONES
CAN CONTACT US.
HERE IS ONE FROM SABINA PARK
MARYLAND.
MY QUESTION IS, CAN THE
DEVIL HERE ARE THOUGHTS?
AND ALSO, IF JUDAS WAS
REMORSEFUL, DID HE GO TO HEAVEN
OR HOW?
MY FEELING ABOUT JUDAS WAS,
HE COMMITTED SUICIDE THAT HE
WAS SO REMORSEFUL.
HE THROUGH THE 30 PIECES OF
SILVER BACK IN THE TEMPLE.
AND THEY TOOK IT AND I BOUGHT A
POTTERS FIELD WITH THE MONEY.
ONE DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT THE
FINAL JUDGMENT OF SOMEONE.
IT IS IN GOD'S HANDS.
IF YOU ASKED ME WHAT I THINK, I
THINK HE WILL WIND UP NOT IN
HEAVEN.
HE WALKED WITH JESUS.
WHEN YOU ARE WITH JESUS FOR
THREE OR FOUR YEARS.
IT WAS THREE OR IN THAT
TIMEFRAME.
THAT IS MY FEELING.
DEBORAH FROM LAS VEGAS
NEVADA HAS THIS QUESTION.
HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT CHRISTIANS
USING CURSE WORDS.
IS IT OKAY FOR THEM TO DO THAT?
I DON'T SEE ANYTHING IN THE
BIBLE ABOUT IT IS OKAY FOR
CHRISTIANS TO USE CURSE WORDS.
THE BIBLE SAYS, LET YOUR
SPEECH BE WITH GRACE AND SEASON
WITH SALT. WE ARE NOT SUPPOSED
TO USE UNCLEAN WORDS OR FILTHY
LANGUAGE.
DON'T LET FILTHY COMMUNICATION
COME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH. I DON'T
THINK CHRISTIANS SHOULD BE
CURSING.
BUT THE COMMANDMENT, DO NOT TAKE
THE NAME OF YAHWEH FOR A VANITY
. THAT IS A DIFFERENT MATTER.
BUT I DO THINK THAT IT IS
WRONG.
THE BIBLE SAYS DON'T LET ANY
UNCLEAN COMMUNICATION COME OUT
OF YOUR MOUTH. I DON'T THINK
CHRISTIANS OUGHT TO BE GOING
AROUND CURSING.
IF THE SPIRIT OF GOD IS
SPEAKING THROUGH YOU, WHEN I
WAS FIRST SAVED I USED TO USE
SOME BAD LANGUAGE.
AND THE MINUTE I FOUND THE LORD,
IT WAS GONE.
BECAUSE THE HOLY SPIRIT WAS NOW
WITHIN ME AND THE HOLY SPIRIT
WAS DOING THE SPEAKING.
AND HE WOULD NOT LET ME DO
STUFF LIKE THAT.
I THINK IT IS THE SAME THING
FOR YOU OR WHOEVER IS ASKING
TE QUESTION.
AMEN.
HERE IS DARLENE FROM CORPUS
CHRISTI, TEXAS.
MY QUESTION IS, AS A
BEGINNER TO READING THE BIBLE,
WHERE DO YOU BEGIN?
FIRST OF ALL, MAKE SURE YOU
GET A GOOD CANCELLATION.
THE FIRST EDITION OF THE NIV
ARE VERY GOOD.
THEY HAVE DONE SOME WORK ON THE
LAST EDITION.
I BELIEVE YOU START WITH THE
GOSPEL MATTHEW, MARK, LUKE AND
JOHN.
READ ONE OF THEM AND THEN GO
INTO THE PROVERBS OR PSALMS.
AND THEN BACK AND FORTH.
THAT IS WHERE I WOULD BEGIN.
THAT YOU GOT ROMANS AND THE
ACTS OF THE APOSTLES AND THE
FIRST AND SECOND CORINTHIANS.
THE LETTERS OF PAUL ARE VERY
INSTRUCTIVE.
I WOULD START WITH ONE OF THE
GOSPELS AND WITH SOME OF THE
PSALMS.
YOU COULD READ THROUGH PSALMS OR
PROVERBS ALONG WITH THE GOSPEL.
> UP NEXT IS ROUND TWO OF OUR
SPECIAL VOICEMAIL EDITION OF,
YOUR QUESTIONS/HONEST ANSWERS.
YOUR CALL COULD BE COMING UP
NEXT.
STAY TUNED.
> WELCOME BACK TO THIS
SPECIAL EDITION OF YOUR
VOICEMAIL QUESTIONS.
WE HAVE PAT HERE TO ANSWER
THEM.
WE START WITH JANICE FROM
WILMINGTON, DELAWARE WITH THIS
QUESTION.
I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHEN
YOU ARE SAVED AND THE
CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUNDING IT.
WHEN I WAS SAVED?
ME?
I CAME TO THE LORD WHEN I
FINISHED LAW SCHOOL. I HAD A
TIME BEFORE THE LORD. I WAS IN
BUSINESS AND OUT OF LAW SCHOOL.
THE BIBLE SAYS THE HEART IS
RESTLESS UNTIL IT RESTS IN THE.
SOMEHOW I FELT LIKE GOD WANTED
ME TO SERVE HIM.
YOU COME TO A POINT AND SAY
THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING
BETTER THAN THIS.
AND THAT IS WHAT I FELT LIKE.
I WAS HAVING DINNER WITH THE
MISSIONARY. AND I STARTED
TALKING TO HIM.
HE SAID, IS AND THERE'S
SOMETHING MORE?
IT IS LIKE, I BELIEVE THAT
JESUS CHRIST DIED FOR THE SINS
OF THE WORLD AND MY SINS.
WHEN I DID THAT, SOMETHING
TRANSFORMED ME.
ISN'T IT AMAZING?
I NEVER KNEW THAT STORY.
THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING
NEW.
YOU HAD A PRAYING MOTHER.
I TALKED TO HER AND SHE SAID
, YOU DON'T TALK RIGHT EITHER.
> THIS IS FROM MIDDLESBROUGH,
KENTUCKY.
MY QUESTION IS, THE BIBLE
SAYS THAT GOD IS SPIRIT.
DOES THAT MEAN THAT GOD DOES
NOT HAVE A BODY?
THE UNIVERSE IS ENORMOUS.
IN MY BOOK I JUST FINISHED
WRITING, I HAVE SOMETHING ABOUT
THE BIG BANG THEORY AND HOW BIG
THE UNIVERSE IS. IT IS ENORMOUS.
GOD ALMIGHTY WAS BEHIND ALL OF
IT.
DOES HE HAVE A BODY?
I KNOW PEOPLE HAVE SEEN WHAT
LOOKS LIKE THE THRONE OF GOD.
HE IS SO ENORMOUS, HE FILLS ALL
THE UNIVERSE.
DOES HE HAVE A BODY?
HE IS A SPIRIT.
JESUS CAN TRANSFORM HIMSELF INTO
SOME OTHER PERSON ALONG THE
WAY.
PEOPLE SAY THEY HAVE RUN INTO
ANGELS AND MET ANGELS.
ANGELS HAVE APPEARED TO THEM IN
THE FORM OF HUMAN BEINGS.
I'M SORRY TO INTERRUPT.
JESUS SAID, IF YOU SEE ME, YOU
HAVE SEEN THE FATHER.
EXACTLY.
THAT IS GOD COME IN THE FLESH.
HUMAN BEINGS COULD NOT POSSIBLY
UNDERSTAND GOD.
HE IS SO GREAT.
IT STARTED WITH A VIRGIN, MARY
AND AS HE GREW UP, HE LIVED AS
A HUMAN BEING.
AND IF YOU HAVE SEEN HIM YOU
HAVE SEEN THE FATHER.
THAT IS HOW YOU KNOW GOD.
MIKE FROM YORK, PENNSYLVANIA
HAS THIS QUESTION. I HAVE
READ THAT WHEN CHRIST RETURNS
THAT HE WILL RAIN FOR 1000
YEARS.
BUT I HAVE ALSO READ THAT WHEN
CHRIST RETURNS, THEN THE END OF
THE EARTH WILL COME.
I WAS WONDERING IF YOU COULD
CLEAR THAT UP FOR ME.
THE THOUSAND YEARS, THE TERM
MILLENNIUM, 1000 YEARS, AND
THEY LIVED AND REIGNED WITH HIM
FOR 1000 YEARS AND THEN
RELEASED FOR A TIME.
I THINK WHEN HE COMES BACK,
WITH HIS ANGELS, I THINK HE
WILL MAKE A NEW HEAVEN AND A
NEW EARTH. THE THOUSAND YEARS,
PEOPLE TALK ABOUT THIS AND
PEOPLE DON'T AGREE EXACTLY WHAT
IT WILL BE A. I KNOW THE LORD
IS GOING TO START A NEW HEAVEN
AND NEW EARTH AND HE WILL
TRANSFORM THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE.
I WOULD THINK THAT IS WHAT IS
GOING TO HAPPEN MORE THAN THE
1000 YEARS.
MAYBE IT WILL HAPPEN SOONER
THAN WE THINK. IF IT IS POST,
IT MEANS WE HAVE HAD THE
MILLENNIUM.
THE MILLENNIUM STARTED WHEN
JESUS WAS CRUCIFIED, DID IT
START WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT CAME
? AT WHAT POINT COULD HAVE
STARTED?
I DON'T THINK -- MUST JUST MOVE
ON.
WENDY FROM HONOLULU, HAWAII.
I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHEN
YOU FORGIVE SOMEBODY WHO HAS
DONE WRONG, DO YOU HAVE TO GO
TO THE PERSON OR JUST FORGIVE
THEM IN YOUR HEART?
WE ARE TOLD TWO THINGS.
THE BIBLE SAYS, WHEN YOU STAND
PRAYING, IF YOU HAVE FORGIVEN.
AND ALSO SAYS, WHEN YOU OFFER
YOUR GIFT AND YOU REMEMBER THAT
SOMEBODY HAS HARMED YOU, YOU GO
TO THEM AND MAKE IT RIGHT.
IF YOU HAVE HEARD SOMEBODY, YOU
GO TO THEM AND ASK FORGIVENESS.
BUT IF THEY HURT YOU, YOU
FORGIVEN YOUR HEART.
WE ARE LEARNING THAT.
RICKY FROM DURHAM, NORTH
CAROLINA HAS THIS QUESTION.
I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW ONCE
THE DEVIL IS PUT INTO THE PITT
AND CAST INTO ETERNAL
DAMNATION, WILL HE FEEL PAIN OR
WILL THE DEMONS FEEL PAIN OR
ONLY THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE GONE
INTO ETERNAL DAMNATION?
THE ANTICHRIST WILL BE PUT
IN THE LAKE OF FIRE.
I THINK IT WILL BE ETERNAL
TORMENT FOR THOSE PEOPLE.
THEY SAW GOD PERFECTLY.
THERE WAS NO FOOLING AROUND.
RIGHT NOW WE SEE THROUGH A
GLASS DARKLY.
WE HAVE A BIBLE AND OTHER
THINGS BUT WE ARE JUST HUMAN
BEINGS.
A LOT OF TIMES GOD WILL FORGIVE
US BECAUSE WE REALLY DON'T KNOW.
BUT THOSE DEMONS, THE FALLEN
ANGELS AND THE DEVIL HIMSELF,
THERE WAS NO QUESTION THAT GOD
WAS SUPERB. AND THEY FELT THEY
COULD RUN HEAVEN BETTER THAN HE
COULD.
AND THEY TRIED TO TAKE OVER.
WHEN THEY TRIED TO TAKE GOD OUT
OF HEAVEN, THERE WILL NOT BE
FORGIVENESS FOR THEM.
THAT IS GOOD WORD.
THIS ONE IS FROM OWENSBORO,
KENTUCKY.
MY QUESTION IS, HOW DOES A
PERSON GET THE WORD OF
KNOWLEDGE FROM GOD? LIKE SOME
OF THE 700 CLUB DO. SOMETIMES
YOU EVEN KNOW THEIR NAMES.
DO YOU HEAR AN AUDIBLE VOICE OR
IS THE THOUGHT JUST BROUGHT
YOUR MIND? IT IS PRIMARILY A
THOUGHT BROUGHT TO YOUR MIND.
IT IS A WORD OF KNOWLEDGE.
IT IS SOMETHING NOT AVAILABLE
THROUGH THE SENSES.
IT JUST COMES FROM THE POWER OF
THE HOLY SPIRIT.
AND YOU PRAY, AND YOU SAY WHAT
ARE YOU DOING?
HE SAYS I AM HEALING SOMEBODY
AND THIS IS THE NAME.
IS THE SPIRIT OF GOD.
THIS IS ONE OF THE GIFTS OF THE
HOLY SPIRIT AND WE CALL IT, THE
ENABLEMENT.
AND THOSE GIFTS, THE GIFTS OF
REVELATION, GIFTS OF POWER.
AND THE WORD OF KNOWLEDGE IS
ONE OF THEM.
IT IS SOMETHING THAT GOD
HIMSELF SPEAKS.
THE BIBLE SAYS, THE BETTER GIFT
SO YOU MAY PROPHESY.
YOU ASK AND YOU SAY YOU WANT
THIS AND SEE WHAT HE DOES.
AND BEGIN TO PRACTICE THE
PRESENCE OF GOD.
AND AS YOU DO MORE AND MORE,
YOU GET MORE ADEPT AT FEELING
WHAT GOD IS DOING.
A MAN.
LAURIE FROM THE TOP YOUR, NEW
YORK.
MY QUESTION IS, HOW DO I
EXPLAIN TO MY CATHOLIC FRIENDS
THAT THERE IS NO PURGATORY?
GET TO THE LETTER OF POLICY
WHAT HE SAYS.
HE SAYS I AM PRESENT WITH THE
BODY AND I AM AWAY FROM THE LORD
BUT I AM WITH THE BODY AND IN
THE PRESENCE OF GOD.
IF YOU LOOK AT JESUS TALKING TO
THE FAITHFUL, HE SAYS, LORD
REMEMBER ME WHEN I COME INTO
YOUR KINGDOM.
JESUS SAID, THIS DAY YOU WILL
BE WITH ME IN PARADISE.
THERE IS NO PURGATORY.
THERE IS NO INTERMEDIATE TIME.
ABSENT FROM THE BODY WE ARE AT
HOME WITH THE LORD.
THERE IS NOT SOME INTERMEDIATE
STATE.
TORI IS A NICE PURGATORY IS A
WAY TO TITHE TO GET THE SOULS
OUT OF PURGATORY.
IT IS SORT OF A INTERMEDIATE
STAGE WERE PEOPLE A PURIFIED.
THERE IS NOTHING LIKE THAT IN
THE BIBLE.
JUST A WORD FROM JESUS HIMSELF,
THIS DAY YOU WILL BE WITH ME.
NOT IN PURGATORY BUT IN
PARADISE.
I WOULD RATHER BE IN
PARADISE.
I WILL TAKE THAT OVER
PURGATORY.
ANDREW FROM NORFOLK,
VIRGINIA HAS THIS QUESTION.
IN FIRST PETER 3:19 AND 20,
WHO ARE THE SPIRITS IN PRISON
THAT JESUS PREACHED TO?
AS FAR AS I KNOW, THESE WERE
PEOPLE WHO HAVE NOT HAD A CHANCE
TO HEAR THE GOSPEL THROUGHOUT
ALL OF HISTORY.
AND THEY CAN BE RIGHTEOUS
PEOPLE.
I DON'T WHO THEY WERE.
THE BIBLE SAYS, JESUS SAYS
THERE WAS A TIME BETWEEN THE
CRUCIFIXION AND THE
RESURRECTION.
AND DURING THAT TIME PETER
SAYS, HE WENT INTO THE PRISON
AND PREACHED THE GOSPEL TO
THOSE WHO DID NOT KNOW THE LORD.
WHO ARE THEY?
I THINK THEY ARE PEOPLE WHO
LIVED ALL THESE AGES AND HAVE
NOT HAD A CHANCE TO FIND
SALVATION.
GOD IN HIS MERCY SENT HIS SON
DURING THE TIME OF HIS DEATH TO
SPEAK TO THEM.
AT LEAST THAT IS WHAT PETER
DOES.
THAT IS THE ONLY REFERENCE I AM
AWARE OF ABOUT THAT. SAN
DIEGO, CALIFORNIA HAS THIS
QUESTION.
A MARRIAGE CAN BE SEALED AND
LAST BEYOND DEATH.
BECAUSE OF MATTHEW 16:19 WHERE
IT SAYS, WHAT I BIND ON EARTH
SHALL BE BOUND IN HEAVEN.
I'D LIKE TO KNOW IF THAT IS
TRUE.
IT DOES NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO
DO WITH MARRIAGE.
IT WOULD BE NICE TO THINK IT
WAS SEALED FOREVER.
BUT THE BIBLE SAYS, WHAT EVER
IS BOUND. WE ARE TALKING ABOUT
COMMANDMENTS.
AND THE RABBIS AND THE TEACHERS
OF THE LAW COULD BIND AND LOOSE
AND COMMANDMENTS.
JESUS SAID, WHEN THE CHURCH
BINDS ON EARTH IT WILL BE
RATIFIED IN HEAVEN.
AND THAT IS WHAT HE IS TALKING
ABOUT.
WHEN THE BINDING AND LOOSENING
HAS TO DO WITH THE
COMMANDMENTS, IT DOES NOT HAVE
TO DO WITH MARRIAGE.
ALTHOUGH THAT IS SWEET TO THINK.
I HAVE BEEN MARRIED FOR 67
YEARS.
IT IS A NICE THING TO THINK.
BUT MAYBE YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO
BE THERE FOREVER.
THE BIBLE DOES NOT TEACH THAT.
THIS IS DOUG FROM INDIAN
RIVER, MICHIGAN.
JUST WONDERING IF THE SABBATH
IS AT SUNDOWN ON FRIDAY TO
SUNDIAL ON SATURDAY? OR IS IT
SUNDAY?
THERE ARE THREE DAYS.
THE MORMONS TAKE FRIDAY, THE
JEWISH TAKE SATURDAY AND THE
CHRISTIANS TAKES SUNDAY.
IT BEGAN AT SUNDOWN AND WAS OVER
AT SUNDOWN THE NEXT DAY FOR THE
JEWISH PEOPLE, THE SABBATH.
THAT WAS THE REGULATION.
THEY WATCHED CAREFULLY TO MAKE
SURE THE SUN WAS UP OR THE SUM
WAS DOWN.
TO CHRISTIANS, WE CELEBRATE AS
CHRISTIANS, THE RESURRECTION
DAY.
WHICH IS THE FIRST DAY OF THE
WEEK, THE LADIES CAME TO THE
TOMB AND HE APPEARED.
PROBABLY TO GOD'S HEART, DOES
IT MATTER WHICH DAY?
JESUS SAID THE SABBATH WAS
MADE FOR MAN, NOT MAN FOR THE
SABBATH. A DAY OF REST IS
UNBELIEVABLY IMPORTANT.
AND WE DON'T TAKE THAT IN OUR
SOCIETY ANYMORE.
WORKING SEVEN DAYS A WEEK.
THAT IS A REASON WE HAVE SO
MUCH MENTAL PROBLEMS AND
CONFUSION.
AND DISEASE.
WE ARE NOT RESTING. THERE WAS
SUPPOSED TO BE A DAY OF REST.
AND THAT IS A BLESSING.
THINK IF YOU HAD TO WORK SEVEN
DAYS A WEEK AND THEN HAD TO
WORK ANOTHER SEVEN DAYS AND NO
WEEKENDS. THERE ARE SOME
SOCIETIES WHERE THAT IS THE WAY
IT IS.
THE SABBATH IS MADE FOR MAN.
WHEN GOD WAS DOING HIS
CREATION, THE BIBLE SAYS, IT
TOOK SIX DAYS AND ON THE
SEVENTH THE DAY HE QUOTE
RESTED.
GOD DOES NOT HAVE TO REST.
IT MEANS HE DID NOT DO ANY
CREATION ON THE SEVENTH DAY.
AND THEREFORE HE BLESSED IT AND
MADE IT HOLY.
STILL AHEAD, LAST CALL.
THE FINAL ROUND OF THE SPECIAL
EDITION OF, YOUR
QUESTIONS/HONEST ANSWERS FROM
PAT.
IT IS COMING UP NEXT.
STAY WITH US.
STAY WITH US.
> WELCOME BACK TO THE FINAL
ROUND OF YOUR VOICEMAIL
QUESTIONS.
WE ARE STARTING WITH CARL'S
QUESTION FROM PULLMAN,
WASHINGTON.
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR
RETIREMENT.
MY QUESTION IS, WHAT ADVICE
WOULD YOU GIVE ANYONE TO
PREPARE ONESELF FOR RETIREMENT?
YOU WANT TO STAY BUSY.
THAT IS HOW YOU PREPARE.
THE BIGGEST THING IS NOTHING
WORSE THAN SITTING AROUND IN A
ROCKING CHAIR.
I SPENT THE LAST FEW MONTHS
AFTER THE SO-CALLED, STEP DOWN,
WRITING A BOOK. YOU HAVE NOT
BEEN TAKING IT EASY.
I JUST CAN'T.
YOU NEED TO PREPARE TO DO IS TO
KEEP YOUR BODY IN SHAPE.
I WORKED OUT AND ALL THAT OTHER
STUFF.
THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT.
TO STAY ACTIVE, I MANAGED SOME
FINANCES FOR THE UNIVERSITY AND
MYSELF.
YOU HAVE TO STAY UP ON WHAT IS
GOING ON.
IF YOU STAY ACTIVE, YOUR MIND
IS ACTIVE.
THAT IS HOW YOU PREPARE.
THE LAST THING YOU WANT TO DO
IS TO PREPARE TO SHUT
EVERYTHING DOWN AND SIT IN THE
ROCKING CHAIR.
THAT IS AWFUL.
HOW DO YOU PREPARE
FINANCIALLY?
YOU GOT TO KNOW WHAT IS
GOING ON.
I LOOK FOR STUFF THAT PAYS 10%.
YOU GOT TO READ AND STAY
ABREAST OF THE MARKET.
I THINK THE IDEA OF BONDS AND
STUFF THEY TALK ABOUT IS
NONSENSE.
HE REMEMBER THE MAN PUT HIS
MONEY IN THE HOLE IN THE GROUND
AND JESUS SAID, YOU ARE A
WICKED SERVANT.
I THINK THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS
WHEN YOU PUT YOUR MONEY IN A
SAVINGS ACCOUNT IN THE BANK AND
GET 2% INTEREST.
AND YOU PAY TAXES AND LOSE
MONEY.
> THIS IS FROM WALKERTON,
NORTH CAROLINA.
MY QUESTION IS ABOUT
SPEAKING IN TONGUES.
I'M CONFUSED OVER THIS.
IS THIS SOMETHING THAT YOU
LEARN?
OR IS IT SOMETHING WE JUST SAY
RANDOM, MEANINGLESS WORDS AND
GOD JUST SIMPLY KNOWS WHAT
YOU'RE THINKING? OR IS IT A
MIRACLE THAT GOD GIVES YOU THE
ABILITY TO SUDDENLY START
SPEAKING THIS?
OR IS IT SOMETHING ELSE
ENTIRELY?
AS I SAID, THE MANIFESTATION
OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, THEY ARE
SPEAKING IN TONGUES.
PAUL SAID, THOUGH I SPEAK WITH
THE TONGUES OF ANGELS, HE WHO
SPEAKS BILLS HIMSELF UP.
YOU CAN PRAY IN THE SPIRIT.
PRAY WITH THE UNDERSTANDING.
WHEN YOU PRAY, YOUR VOICE IS
GIVEN OUT.
HOW DO YOU START? SO MANY
PEOPLE WANT TO BE FILLED WITH
THE SPIRIT.
THEY SAY, FILL ME.
NO.
WAIT ON THE LORD AND LET HIM
BEGIN TO SPEAK.
THEY SPOKE AS THE SPIRIT GAVE
UTTERANCE.
I CAN GO INTO ALL THE DETAILS.
SPEAKING IN TONGUES, IN
ASSEMBLY YOU SHOULD NOT SPEAK
IN TONGUES UNLESS THERE IS AN
INTERPRETER.
PROPHECY IS THE EQUIVALENT OF
SPEAKING IN TONGUES WITH
INTERPRETATION.
IT IS FOR EXULTATION, AT A
VOCATION AND COMFORT.
HE WHO SPEAKS IN A TONGUE
EDIFIES HIMSELF.
SO IT COMES FROM THE POWER OF
THE LORD. WAIT UPON THE LORD
AND ASKED FOR HIM AND LET THE
HOLY SPIRIT LET THE FLOW COME.
I HAD THOSE SAME QUESTIONS
20 YEARS AGO.
SEEK OUT SOMEBODY WHO HAS THE
GIFT.
AND PRAY WITH THEM.
AND THEY CAN ALSO HELP YOU.
THAT IS HOW IT HAPPENED FOR ME.
IT WILL HAPPEN FOR YOU.
JUST DON'T GIVE UP.
I WAS PRAYING AND I HAD BEEN
SEEKING TO FIND THE HOLY
SPIRIT.
WHEN MY OLDER SON LOOKED LIKE
HE WAS OVERCOME WITH A FEVER
THAT HE MIGHT HAVE BRAIN
DAMAGE, I BEGAN TO PRAY.
GOD TOUCHED HIM AND HEALED HIM.
I BEGAN TO THANK GOD.
I BEGAN TO SPEAK AND PRAISE THE
LORD IN ANOTHER LANGUAGE.
IT IS SUPERNATURAL.
THIS ONE IS FROM LAWRENCE,
MASSACHUSETTS. I MISS YOU SO
MUCH ON THE 700 CLUB. MY
QUESTION IS, IS IT ALL RIGHT TO
SAY THE ROSARY, THE ROSARY
BEADS, PRAYING TO THE VIRGIN
MARY?
I THINK THE IDEA OF HAVING A
ROSARY IS PROBABLY A GOOD
THING.
IT GIVES YOU TACTICAL SENSATION
ALONG WITH YOUR PRAYER.
YOU COME TO THE FATHER THROUGH
THE SON, IN THE POWER OF THE
HOLY SPIRIT.
I KNOW THAT THE ANGEL SAID,
HAIL MARY, FULL OF GRACE.
THEY SAY THIS OVER AGAIN.
I THINK FRANKLY, YOU'RE NOT
SUPPOSED TO PRAY TO MARY.
THERE IS NOTHING IN THE BIBLE.
BUT ALL THEY MARIA IS HAIL MARY.
NOTRE DAME IS OUR LADY.
WE HAVE ALL THESE THINGS THAT
ARE MEANT FOR MARY.
GOD DID NOT GIVE MARY THE
AUTHORITY.
JESUS IS THE ONE YOU TALK TO.
YOU TALK TO THE FATHER, THROUGH
THE SON.
NOT THROUGH MARY.
THIS IS DEBORAH FROM
COLORADO SPRINGS, COLORADO.
I WATCH HER SHOW EVERY DAY
AND I WAS WONDERING ABOUT YOUR
HEALING PART.
ASKING FOR HEALING.
GORDON WILL SAY, JUST BELIEVE.
I BELIEVE BUT GOD NEVER HEALS
ME.
IS THERE A REASON?
IS IT MY UNBELIEF?
WHY DOES GOD CHOOSE TO HEAL
SOME AND NOT OTHERS?
CATHERINE COLEMAN SAID THAT IS
THE THING. I WILL ASK GOD WHEN
I GET TO HEAVEN.
HOW COME HEAL SOME AND NOT THE
OTHER? THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE
WHO DO NOT BELIEVE IN HEALING.
SO THEY RESIST IT.
IT IS EASIER TO PRAY FOR A
CHILD THAN A CYNICAL, OLDER
PERSON.
THERE ARE A NUMBER OF PEOPLE
WHO ENJOY THEIR SICKNESS.
THE SICK THIS BECOMES A CRUTCH.
THEY WOULD LOVE TO DO THIS BUT
I CANNOT BECAUSE OF MY
INFIRMITY.
PEOPLE HAVE RESENTMENT AGAINST
SOMEBODY.
I REMEMBER YEARS AGO, I WAS AT A
CONVENTION IN ASIA.
DURING THE BREAK IN THE
SERVICES I WENT OUTSIDE AND
THERE WAS A WOMAN WHO HAD A
VERY SERIOUS ILLNESS.
SHE SAID, WOULD YOU PRAY FOR ME
AND I SAID OKAY.
I PRAYED FOR HER.
I SAID WHAT HAPPENED?
AND SHE SAID, NOTHING.
I PRAYED AGAIN.
NOTHING.
I PRAYED AGAIN AND I SAID, THE
YOU HAVE A RESENTMENT TOWARD
ANYBODY?
SHE SAID, I LOVE EVERYBODY.
I SAID, HOW ABOUT YOUR HUSBAND?
SHE SAID, I HATE HIM.
BUT HE DOES NOT COUNT.
SHE HATED HER HUSBAND BUT HE
DID NOT COUNT.
HE COUNTS AND EVERYBODY COUNTS.
YOU ASKED TO GET HEALED AND YET
YOU HATE SOMEBODY.
HOW CAN YOU HATE SOMEBODY MADE
AN IMAGE OF GOD AND SAY YOU
LOVE GOD WHO MADE HIM THAT WAY?
YOU GOT TO LOVE GOD AND LOVE
THOSE WHO WERE MADE IN HIS
IMAGE.
IF YOU HAVE A RESENTMENT
AGAINST SOMEBODY, YOU WILL NOT
BE HEALED.
THAT MAY NOT BE THE CASE
WITH THIS LADY.
SHE MAY NOT HATE ANYBODY BUT
MAYBE IT HAS NOT BEEN GOD'S
TIMING YET.
I DON'T KNOW ABOUT GOD'S
TIMING.
HE'S GOT A TIME FOR EVERYTHING.
BUT AT THE SAME TIME, THERE
COMES A MOMENT WHEN THE POWER
OF GOD IS MOVING IN THE LORD
HEALS YOU.
THIS ONE IS FROM TORONTO,
ONTARIO. I ALWAYS WANTED TO
KNOW WHEN JESUS RETURNS TO THE
EARTH, DO YOU THINK YOU BE
WEARING THE TRADITIONAL DRESS
OF 2000 YEARS AGO?
OR WEARING SOMETHING MORE LIKE
A NICE SUIT?
HE MAY BE CLOSED IS IN THE
POWER OF GOD.
ON THE MOUNT OF TRANSFIGURATION,
HE CAME IN FLOWING WHITE.
I WOULD NOT LOOK FOR JESUS IN A
BROOKS BROTHERS SUIT.
OR IN THE GARB OF A RABBI.
WHEN HE COMES BACK, HE WILL BE
CLOSED IN GLORY.
IT WILL BE VERY BRIGHT AND
WE WILL ALL SEE A.
THIS ONE IS FROM CALIFORNIA.
HELLO.
I MISS YOU TERRIBLY IN THE
MORNINGS. BUT I'M GLAD YOU'RE
GOING TO BE ON FOR THE
QUESTIONS.
TELL ME THE ROLE THAT THE HOLY
SPIRIT PLAYS IN MY LIFE OF
PRAYER AND IN GENERAL.
I'M CONFUSED.
I HAVE WRITTEN ANOTHER BOOK
WHICH WILL BE A PREMIUM.
IT IS A BOOK ON THE HOLY SPIRIT.
AND HOW HE WORKS AND WHAT HE IS.
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS THE POWER OF
GOD.
THAT WORKS THROUGHOUT
EVERYTHING.
WHAT EXACTLY WAS SHE ASKING?
HOW DOES THE HOLY SPIRIT WORK
IN HER LIFE? IN MY LIFE OF
PRAYER AND IN GENERAL.
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS ACTIVE.
NOBODY CAN COME TO JESUS UNLESS
THE HOLY SPIRIT DRAWS YOU IN.
THE HOLY SPIRIT ACTIVATES THE
FAITH YOU HAVE IN YOUR LIFE.
WE TALK ABOUT THE THIRD PERSON
IN THE TRINITY. I WROTE A BOOK
ABOUT THE HOLY SPIRIT.
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT AND SHOULD
BE AVAILABLE SHE IS THE ACTIVE
PLACE.
WHEN YOU PRAY, YOU PRAY TO THE
FATHER IN THE NAME OF THE SON
AND THE POWER OF THE HOLY
SPIRIT.
THE HOLY SPIRIT IS WHAT
EMPOWERS OUR PRAYERS AND OUR
HEALING AND OUR ACTIVITY.
HERE IS MARK FROM CHARLOTTE,
NORTH CAROLINA.
MY QUESTION REALLY DOES NOT
MATTER TO ME, BUT I HAVE A
FRIEND THAT'S HUNG UP ON WHAT
HAPPENED TO JESUS BETWEEN THE
TIME OF HIS CRUCIFIXION AND HE
WAS AGAIN?
HE CLAIMS THAT IT IS ALL ABOUT
PURGATORY AND THAT HE HAD TO
DESCEND TO HELL . WHAT DO YOU
SEE GOD DOING FOR JESUS IN THE
THREE DAYS?
WE JUST TALKED ABOUT THAT
EARLIER.
HE PREACHED TO THE PEOPLE.
THERE IS NO PURGATORY FOR
JESUS.
HE IS PERFECT.
HE IS THE SON OF GOD.
HE DOES NOT GO TO PURGATORY.
PURGATORY WAS CONCEIVED OF AS A
PLACE OF CURING OR PERFECTING
OF SOMEBODY WHO DIED IN SIN.
THERE IS NOTHING IN THE BIBLE
THAT SAYS ANYTHING ABOUT
PURGATORY AND JESUS DID NOT GO
TO ANY PURGATORY.
ACCORDING TO PETER, HE PREACHED
TO THOSE WHO WERE CAPTIVE
THROUGHOUT THE AGES WHO HAD NOT
HAD A CHANCE TO HEAR THE GOSPEL.
MAYBE I AM WRONG BUT DIDN'T
THE BIBLE SAY JESUS AFTER HE
DIED HE DESCENDED INTO HELL
BEFORE HE WENT TO HEAVEN?
THAT'S WHAT WE WERE TALKING
ABOUT.
I HAVE TO GET THE PRECISE
THING.
I DON'T THINK HE DESCENDED INTO
HELL .
OKAY.
HE WENT AND PREACHED TO THE
CAPTIVES WHO WERE BEING HELD.
MAYBE THEY WERE THERE AND HE
PREACHED TO THEM.
WE DON'T HAVE THAT SCRIPTURE
RIGHT NOW.
THIS ONE IS FROM MICHIGAN.
I WANT TO KNOW, IS IT
POSSIBLE TO HAVE A LIFETIME OF
BEING CURSED?
I JUST HAD HARD A, PAIN, SORROW
AND SUFFERING LITERALLY FROM
THE TIME I WAS YOUNG UNTIL NOW.
IS IT POSSIBLE? YOU CAN BRING
ABOUT CURSES YOURSELF.
JUST THINK.
THE FRUIT OF YOUR LIPS CAN HAVE
GREAT POWER.
YOU START YOUR DAY AND SAY, I
FEEL AWFUL.
YOU COULD SAY I THINK IT WILL BE
A BEAUTIFUL DAY AND I PRAISE
GOD.
HE MADE THIS.
AND ALL THE SUDDEN THINGS
CHANGE.
A MAN SHALL EAT GOODBYE THE
FRUIT OF HIS LIPS.
IS THERE A CURSE?
IF THERE IS ONE YOU BRING IT ON
YOURSELF. DON'T DO IT.
PRAISE GOD IN THE MIDST OF
EVERYTHING.
> WE LEAVE YOU WITH THIS.
I HAVE STORED UP YOUR WORD IN
MY HEART.
THAT I MIGHT NOT SIN AGAINST
YOU.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING
WITH US.
IT IS FUN TO BE BACK.
ABOUT A MONTH FROM TODAY WE
WILL SEE YOU AGAIN.
