NOT ME?

YOU WANT TO KNOW ON TODAY'S 700

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.
