ALL ACROSS AMERICA, YOU CALLED

AND LEFT YOUR VOICEMAIL

QUESTIONS.

TODAY WE WILL HEAR YOUR VOICES

ON THE AIR.

WE WILL GET ANSWERS TO YOUR

QUESTIONS COMING UP.

> FIRST, SCRAP THE SENATE

FILIBUSTER?

THAT IS WHAT A DESPERATE JOE

BIDEN IS PUSHING TO GET HIS

FEDERAL VOTING RIGHTS BILL

PASSED.

HE CAN'T EVEN GET HIS OWN PARTY

ON BOARD, INCLUDING THE DEMOCRAT

's CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR OF

GEORGIA.

SHE DOESN'T EVEN WANT TO BE

WITH HIM AT A MEETING!

REPUBLICANS ARE SAYING THAT

WILL BREAK THE SENATE.

CHARLENE AARON EXPLAINS.

Reporter: IN A SPEECH ON THE

GROUNDS OF MOREHOUSE COLLEGE IN

ATLANTA, THE PRESIDENT INVOKED

THE CIVIL RIGHTS BATTLES OF THE

1960s, CHALLENGING SENATORS TO

STAND AGAINST WHAT HE CALLS

VOTER SUSPICION.

PASS THE FREEDOM TO VOTE ACT!

PASS IT NOW.

Reporter: THAT FIRED UP

PRESIDENT BIDEN WAS IN GEORGIA

TUESDAY, PUSHING FOR VOTING

REFORM, GOING SO FAR AS TO CALL

FOR A CHANGE IN THE SENATE

RULES REGARDING THE FILIBUSTER.

I BELIEVE THE THREAT TO OUR

DEMOCRACY IS SO GRAVE, WE MUST

FIND A WAY TO PASS THESE VOTING

RIGHTS BILLS, DEBATE THEM.

VOTE.

LET THE MAJORITY PREVAIL!

IF THAT BARE MINIMUM IS BLOCKED

, WE HAVE NO OPTION BUT TO

CHANGE THE SENATE RULES,

INCLUDING GETTING RID OF THE

FILIBUSTER FOR THIS!

Reporter: THE PUSH IS SEEN

BY SOME AS AN EFFORT TO PASS

MEANINGFUL LEGISLATION AT HIS

AFTER HIS MULTITRILLION DOLLAR

SPENDING PLAN SUFFERED A

SETBACK BEFORE CHRISTMAS.

JULIA MANCHESTER TOLD CBN'S

FAITH NATION PROGRAM --

AFTER BUILD BACK BETTER WAS

ESSENTIALLY STALLED BY JOE

MANCHIN LATE LAST YEAR, WE SAW

DEMOCRATS IMMEDIATELY PIVOT

TOWARD VOTING LIGHTS.

THEY WANT TO PASS A LANDMARK

PIECE OF LEGISLATION BEFORE THE

MIDTERMS.

Reporter: SOME VOTING RIGHTS

PROPONENTS ARE SO SKEPTICAL

THAT THEY DIDN'T SHOW UP FOR

THE SPEECH, INCLUDING GEORGIA

DEMOCRATIC GUBERNATORIAL

CANDIDATE STACEY ABRAMS.

PRESIDENT BIDEN SAID TODAY

IT WAS A SCHEDULING CONFLICT.

IT IS HARD TO BELIEVE THERE

@COULD BE A SCHEDULING CONFLICT

WHEN THE PRESIDENT OF THE

UNITED STATES IS TAKING A VISIT

TO THE BIGGEST CITY IN THE

STATE YOU ARE RUNNING FOR

GOVERNOR FOR. BUT I THINK THAT

REALLY TELLS THE STORY.

Reporter: THE PRESIDENT

MAINTAINS THE VOTING RIGHTS ACT

IS NECESSARY TO COUNTER CHANGES

IN VOTING ROLLS IN 19 STATES,

INCLUDING GEORGIA, THAT

DEMOCRATS CONTEND RESTRICT

MINORITY VOTERS.

REPUBLICANS SAY IT AIMS TO

CREATE NATIONALIZED ELECTIONS.

THE BILL HAS NO CHANCE OF

GETTING THE 60 VOTES NEEDED TO

OVERCOME A GOP FILIBUSTER IN

THE EVENLY DENIED DIVIDED

SENATE.

THE PRESIDENT SAID HE WOULD

SUPPORT A ONE-TIME CHANGE IN THE

FILIBUSTER RULE.

SENATE MINORITY LEADERS SAY

THAT WILL BREAK THE SENATE.

HE IS TRYING TO BULLY HIS

OWN MEMBERS INTO BREAKING THEIR

OWN WORD AND BREAKING THE

SENATE.

Reporter: SOME SENATE

DEMOCRATS ARE NOT READY TO BACK

THE PLAN.

WEST VIRGINIA'S JOE MANCHIN AN

ARIZONA'S KYRSTEN SINEMA ARE

NOT ON BOARD.

WE NEED CHANGES AND GETTING

RID OF THE FILIBUSTER DOESN'T

MAKE IT WORK BETTER.

Reporter: MEANWHILE,

CONTROVERSIAL LAW ALLOWING

NONCITIZENS TO VOTE WHEN INTO

EFFECT IN NEW YORK CITY THIS

WEEK.

WILEY DOES NOT APPLY TO STATE

AND NATIONAL ELECTIONS, THE

DEMOCRATIC CITY COUNCIL AND

DEMOCRAT MAYOR SUPPORT THE LAW,

GIVING 800,000 NONCITIZENS THE

RIGHT TO CAST BALLOTS IN LOCAL

ELECTIONS.

CHARLENE AARON, CBN NEWS.

> WE HAVE 50 STATES, 50 OF

THEM.

THE LAW THAT IS SET UP BY THE

FOUNDING FATHERS GAVE THE

ELECTION TO EACH OF THOSE STATES

. THAT IS WHERE THE ELECTIONS

TAKE PLACE.

IF IT IS ALL FEDERALIZED, THAT

MEANS THEY WILL DO AWAY WITH

ALL THE STATE LAWS AND IT WOULD

MEAN THE REALITY OF HAVING A

HUGE BALLOTS HARVESTING, OF

HAVING NONREGISTERED PEOPLE

VOTING, THAT WILL BE A

NIGHTMARE.

IT WILL BE A TAKEOVER, OF

@IT IS NOT A VOTING RIGHTS, IT

IS AN OVERTURNING OF OUR

CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC.

I THINK ANYBODY WITH ANY SENSE

WOULD SAY COME ON, JOE, STOP

LYING.

UP NEXT, YOU CALLED AND PAT

IS ABOUT TO ANSWER YOUR

VOICEMAIL QUESTIONS.

BRENDA FROM TEXAS AND ED FROM

PENNSYLVANIA, YOU ARE UP FIRST.

ROUND ONE BEGINS AFTER THIS.

> WELCOME BACK TO THIS

EDITION OF "THE 700 CLUB".

WE HAVE YOUR VOICEMAIL

QUESTIONED.

WE HAVE PAT HERE IN THE FLESH

TO ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS.

WE START WITH BRENDA FROM

LUBBOCK, TEXAS.

HELLO, BRENDA.

YES, MY NAME IS BRENDA.

I AM CALLING FROM LUBBOCK,

TEXAS.

MY QUESTION IS, WHEN JESUS

TAUGHT US TO PRAY, WHY DID HE

SAY, DON'T LEAD US INTO

TEMPTATION?

THAT'S NOT SOMETHING I WOULD

EXPECT FROM GOD.

BRENDA, THERE IS A VERSE

WHERE IT SAYS, DON'T LET US BE

SIFTED.

I THINK THAT IS WHAT HE IS

SAYING.

DON'T PUT US IN A POSITION

WHERE WE WILL BE SIFTED.

HE IS NOT SAYING DON'T LEAVE --

LEAD US INTO TEMPTATION, HE

WOULD NEVER LEAD US TO

TEMPTATION.

DON'T LEAD US IN THEY POSITION

WHERE WE WILL BE SIFTED.

I PRAY THAT YOUR FAITH WILL

STAND, THAT IS WHAT HE IS

TALKING ABOUT.

AMEN.

I ALWAYS WANTED TO KNOW THAT

ANSWER, AS WELL.

THANK YOU, PAT.

ALL RIGHT.

ED FROM TELFORD, PENNSLYVANIA

HAS THIS QUESTION FOR PAT.

BARRY QUICK, MY QUESTION IS,

DO YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO PRAY OUT

LOUD, OR IS IT OKAY TO PRAY

INSIDE YOUR HEAD, IN YOUR MIND,

WITHOUT PRAYING OUT LOUD?

I WILL TELL YOU A LOT OF US

PRAY SILENTLY.

I KNOW I HAVE DONE A LOT OF

PRAYING.

THE BIBLE SAYS PRAY BUT THERE

ARE TIMES YOU NEED TO

VERBALIZE.

IF YOU SAY TO THAT MOUNTAIN, BE

REMOVED. IF YOU CAST THE DEMON

OR IF YOU SPEAK TO THE DEMON

AND TELL THEM TO LEAVE, THERE

ARE TIMES YOU SPEAK TO

DISEASES.

IT IS A QUESTION OF, YOU KNOW,

YOU HEAR FROM THE LORD QUIETLY.

YOU VERBALIZE WHAT HE HAS TOLD

YOU, BUT THERE IS ABSOLUTELY

NOTHING WRONG WITH PRAYING IN

YOUR MIND.

I DO IT ALL THE TIME.

THAT IS PART OF LIFE.

AMEN.

GOOD ANSWER.

JOANNA FROM OAKVILLE, ONTARIO

HAS THIS QUESTION.

GO AHEAD.

WHAT DID THE LORD SHOW YOU

@AND SPECIFICALLY, THE BODY OF

CHRIST?

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

JOANNA, I BELIEVE THE LORD

SHOWED ME WE WILL HAVE A

FINANCIAL COLLAPSE, THERE WILL

BE A TIME WHERE THE FINANCIAL

AUTHORITIES IN THE WORLD CAN'T

MEET THE DEBT OBLIGATIONS THEY

ARE INCURRING.

I THINK THAT IS GOING TO

HAPPEN.

THERE ARE A LOT OF OTHER

THINGS, I HAVE SEEN THE LORD

LAY IT OUT CLEARLY, ONE, TWO,

THREE, FOUR, HERE IS WHAT WILL

HAPPEN.

FIRST OF ALL, CHRISTIANS AROUND

THE WORLD ARE GOING TO BE HATED

OF ALL NATIONS.

THAT IS WHAT THE LORD SAYS, YOU

WILL BE HATED OF ALL NATIONS.

I THINK WE ARE SEEING PUSHES

AGAINST CHRISTIANS THAT HAS

REACHED AN ACCELERATED LEVEL.

THIS COUNTRY IS GETTING MORE

AND MORE DIFFICULT TO STAND FOR

CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES.

IF YOU BELIEVE IN CERTAIN

THINGS, THEY SAY YOU ARE A

RACIST, HOMOPHOBIC, XENOPHOBIC,

THEY HAVE ALL THESE NAMES FOR

ITS.

I DO BELIEVE THAT IS WHAT IS

GOING TO HAPPEN.

THEN HE SAYS, YOU KNOW, YOU PRAY

AND THIS GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM

WILL BE PREACHED IN ALL THE

WORLD FOR WITNESS.

THEN YOU GO DOWN THE LINE.

READ MATTHEW 25.

IT IS ONLY THAT ONE, TWO,

THREE, FOUR.

HOW SHOULD BELIEVERS PREPARE

FOR A FINANCIAL COLLAPSE?

GET OUT OF DEBT?

IF YOU HAVE DEBT, YOU WILL

BE FORECLOSED ON AND LOOSE

POSSESSIONS.

IF YOU ARE NOT DEALING WITH

OBLIGATIONS, WHERE YOUR

PROPERTY WILL BE TAKEN AWAY

FROM YOU, YOU ARE BETTER OFF

BEING OUT OF DEBT, BUT, YOU

KNOW, MOST PEOPLE HAVE

MORTGAGES.

IT IS VERY DIFFICULT.

IF YOU CAN LIVE DEBT-FREE, YOU

ARE BETTER OFF.

THANKS, PAT.

THE BORROWER IS A SERVANT.

PATRICIA FROM SAN DIEGO,

CALIFORNIA.

I AM CALLING TO ASK, WHO

WROTE THE BOOK OF HEBREWS?

WAS IT PAUL?

IT IS THOUGHT THAT HE DID

BUT WE ARE NOT SURE BECAUSE IT

DOESN'T HAVE ALL OF THE

LETTERS.

IT COULD BE PAUL BUT WE ARE NOT

SURE WHO WROTE IT, TO TELL YOU

THE TRUTH.

THAT IS A GOOD QUESTION.

MANY PEOPLE THINK IT WAS PAUL

BUT IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE HIS

WRITING.

I ALWAYS LOOK AT IT AS THE

FAITH CHAPTER.

WHO WROTE IT?

WHO WROTE IT?

THERE WAS SOMEBODY WHO

OBVIOUSLY HAD A TREMENDOUS

KNOWLEDGE OF THE HISTORY OF

ISRAEL, THE HEBREW PEOPLE AND

THE LAW AND SO FORTH.

A LOT OF PEOPLE THINK IT WAS

PAUL BUT I DON'T BELIEVE THAT.

HERE IS PAUL FROM ROCKFORD,

ILLINOIS, MY OLD STOMPING

GROUND.

GO AHEAD, PAUL.

MY QUESTION IS, HOW CAN BE

ASSURED OF MY SALVATION?

THE SPIRIT BEARS WITNESS

WIT OUR SPIRIT THAT WE ARE

CHILDREN OF GOD.

YOU KNOW, HOW CAN YOU KNOW YOU

ARE ASSURED OF GOD'S SALVATION?

MORE THAN ANYTHING, BY THIS,

YOU CAN KNOW THAT YOU ARE SONS

OF GOD THAT YOU HAVE LOVE FOR

THE BRETHREN.

IF YOU LOVE GOD'S PEOPLE, YOU

KNOW, THE SPIRIT OF GOD LIVES

WITHIN YOU, SO THERE ARE MANY

MANY TESTIMONIES BUT MORE THAN

ANYTHING, THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL

WITNESS TO YOUR SPIRIT THAT YOU

ARE A CHILD OF GOD.

THE BIGGEST THING IS IN YOUR

OWN LIFE, DO YOU LOVE THE LORD?

DO YOU LOVE OTHER PEOPLE?

ARE YOU LIVING FOR HIM?

IF YOU ARE NOT, IF YOU ARE IN A

PLACE OF SIN THAT YOU ARE

COMMITTING ACTS OF SIN THAT YOU

KNOW IS SIN, YOU ARE NOT GOING

TO HAVE ANY ASSURANCE OF

ANYTHING.

THAT IS WHAT I AM TRYING TO

TELL YOU.

IF YOU ARE WALKING IN THE

LIGHT, AS HE IS INDEED LIKE,

WHEN YOU HAVE FELLOWSHIP WITH

ONE ANOTHER AND THE BROTHER AND

OF JESUS CHRIST CONTINUOUSLY

CLEANSES US FROM SIN.

HERE IS NELLIE WITH THIS

QUESTION FROM TAMPA, FLORIDA

FOR PAT.

I AM 93 YEARS OLD.

I HAVE ALWAYS WONDERED ABOUT

THE PART OF THE BIBLE WHERE GOD

WRESTLED WITH THE MAN ALL

NIGHT.

COULD YOU EXPLAIN THAT TO ME,

PLEASE?

GOD BLESS YOU, NELLIE.

I THINK IT WAS AN ANGEL.

JACOB WRESTLES AND IT WAS AN

ANGEL HE WAS WITH.

HE PREVAILED AND THE ANGEL

TOUCHED HIS HIP AND SO HE CAME

OUT OF THAT.

HE WON THE ENCOUNTER, BUT HE

CAME OUT OF IT LIMPING, WHICH

MEAN HE WON AND NOW CALLED

ISRAEL, PRINCE OF GOD . HE WAS

AN ANGEL HE WAS WRESTLING WITH.

HE WON.

HE CAME OUT OF THERE LIMPING.

ALL RIGHT, AMEN.

THIS IS DONNA WITH THIS

QUESTION.

SHE IS FROM ASBURY, NEW JERSEY.

MY QUESTION IS, WHERE ARE

THE SPIRITS OF ALL THE PEOPLE

WHO DIED BEFORE JESUS?

I THINK PAUL SAY, DEPART AND

BE WITH THE LORD.

I THINK WHEN YOU DIE, YOUR

SPIRIT WILL BE WITH THE LORD.

YOUR BODY WILL COME BACK AT THE

RESURRECTION.

WE ALSO HAVE A REFERENCE FROM

PETER THAT JESUS PREACHED TO

THE CAPTIVES THAT HAD DIED

BEFORE HIM.

HE MUST HAVE, THE TIME HE WAS

IN THE TOMB HE WAS DEAD, HE

CAME BACK TO LIFE AGAIN.

DURING THAT PERIOD OF TIME, HIS

SPIRIT WAS SPEAKING TO THOSE

WHO WERE HELD IN PRISON.

HE MUST HAVE READ THE GOSPEL TO

THEM.

SHERRY FROM "THE 700 CLUB"

MARYSVILLE, WASHINGTON HAS THIS

QUESTION FOR PAT.

MY QUESTION IS, HOW DO YOU

KNOW WHEN SHOULD PRAY AND ASK

GOD FOR SOMETHING VERSUS

COMMANDING SOMETHING TO HAPPEN

OR TO CAST OUT SOMETHING?

YOU KNOW, IF YOU WANT TO

PRAY, THE WAY TO DO IT IS TO

WAIT ON THE LORD.

LORD, WHAT IS YOUR WORD ON THIS

MATTER?

DO YOU WANT TO CHANGE THINGS?

DO YOU WANT TO MAKE SOMETHING

DIFFERENT?

FAITH WILL COME UPON YOU WHEN

YOU SPEAK THE WORD.

I DO THINK IT IS VERY

IMPORTANT, A MAN SHOULD NOT BE

HESITANT TO SPEAK SOMETHING.

YOU WAIT ON THE LORD.

LORD, DO YOU REALLY WANT TO

RAISE THIS PERSON FROM THE

DEAD?

DO YOU REALLY WANT TO HEAL THIS

PERSON?

IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE PLAN IS?

WHEN YOU HEAR THE WORD OF THE

LORD, IN THE NAME OF JESUS, I

DECLARE IT.

THAT IS WHERE THE FAITH

COMES FROM.

FAITH COMES FROM HEARING.

THAT IS A GOOD WIN.

ALL RIGHT.

THE NEXT QUESTION IS FROM DAWN,

ALBANY, NEW YORK.

I HAVE A QUESTION.

WHERE IN THE BIBLE DOES IT

ACTUALLY SAY GIVE BACK TO GOD

10%?

THAT IS, THAT IS WHAT JACOB

GAVE TO ISAAC.

ACTUALLY, YOU GO BACK TO ABRAHAM

WHEN HE MET MILK HAS ABOUT.

HE GAVE HIM A TITHE OF WHAT HE

HAD.

THE BIBLE PRESCRIBES TITHING.

TITHE IS 10%.

JACOB, YOU KNOW, MADE A DEAL

WITH GOD.

HE SAID, IF YOU WILL BRING ME

THAT BACK, I WILL GIVE YOU 10%.

YOU GET TO KEEP 90%.

I DO THINK HIS CONCEPT OF

TITHING, YOU TITHE ON THE

INCREASE AND IT IS THROUGHOUT

THE BIBLE.

PAT FROM LOUISVILLE,

KENTUCKY WITH THIS QUESTION.

MY QUESTION IS, WILL WE

PASSOVER, DOES OUR SPIRIT SEE

OUR FUNERAL GOING ON IN OUR

LOVED ONES?

I HAVE HEARD PEOPLE WHO TELL

WITH THEIR BODY THEY HAVE SEEN

THINGS GOING ON.

THE BIBLE IS A VERY CLEAR

WHETHER WE SEE OVER THE FUNERAL

OR NOT.

THE IDEA OF THE SPIRIT STAYING

AROUND FOR A COUPLE DAYS AFTER

DEATH OF THE DEPARTED, YOU KNOW,

THAT WAS THE OLD TESTAMENT

CONCEPT.

I CANNOT GIVE YOU ANY DEBACLE

REFERENCE TO THE FACT THAT WE

WATCH OUR FAMILIES.

I AM NOT TOO ANXIOUS TO WATCH MY

.

LIKE YOU SAY, WE HAVE A LOT

OF ACCOUNTS OF PEOPLE ON THE

OPERATING TABLE WHO ARE

HOVERING.

ABSOLUTELY.

THERE SPIRIT HOVERS.

THEY COME BACK AND THEY TELL

THE DOCTOR WHAT HE SAID.

THAT HAPPENS.

WE HAVE HAD THAT BUT IN

TERMS OF WHEN YOU ARE DEAD, DO

YOU WANT YOUR FUNERAL, I KNOW

OF NO BIBLE THAT CAN BACK THAT

UP.

I WILL ALREADY BE IN HAVE

BEEN.

VINCENT FROM NEW YORK CITY HAS

THIS QUESTION FOR PAT.

PAUL SAYS IN 1 TIMOTHY 2

THAT GOD DESIRES ALL MEN TO BE

SAVED.

HOW DOES THAT SQUARE WITH WHAT

PAUL SAYS IN ROMANS ABOUT

PREDETERMINATION AND THAT SOME

ARE PREDESTINED TO BE SAVED?

THEY ARE IS AN ATTENDING

BETWEEN THE TWO YOU NEED TO

MAINTAIN.

ONE IS FREE WILL.

WORK AT YOUR OWN SALVATION WITH

FEAR AND TREMBLING, FOR GOD

WORKS IN TO YOU HIS WILL AND

GOOD PLEASURE.

GOD WANTS ALL MEN TO BE SAVED

BUT AT THE SAME TIME, THEY

DON'T COME TO HIM, THEY WON'T.

YOU HAVE PREDESTINATION AND YOU

HAVE FREE WILL.

GOD DOES NOT TAKE FREE WILL

AWAY FROM US.

WE ALWAYS HAVE IT.

HE SEES, I MEAN, HE SEES THE

END FROM THE BEGINNING.

YOU KNOW, HERE'S THE DEAL.

IF YOU TOOK A PIECE OF FILM,

LIKE A MOVIE, AND WHEN YOU WERE

WATCHING THE MOVIE, IT LOOKS

LIKE THINGS ARE GOING STEP BY

STEP BY STEP BY STEP.

YOU KNOW, ACTION FOLLOWS AND

THEN THE MAN MEETS THE GIRL AND

THEY GO OFF TOGETHER AND THEY

GET MARRIED AND THEY HAVE

CHILDREN.

IT GOES ON THAT WAY.

IF YOU TOOK THE FILM AND YOU

COULD SEE EVERYTHING, YOU COULD

SEE THE ENGAGEMENT, HERE ARE

THE BABIES AND THE KIDS GROWING

UP.

IT IS ALL LAID OUT FOR YOU.

GOD SEES THE ENTIRE SCOPE OF

MANKIND ALL THE WAY BEFORE HIM.

HE HAS PREPARED THE KINGDOM FOR

YOU. HE SEES IT ALL, BUT AT THE

SAME TIME, HE DOES NOT

INTERFERE WITH YOUR FREE WILL.

GOOD ANSWER.

THE NEXT CALLER, DOROTHY FROM

ARLINGTON, TEXAS.

GO AHEAD.

CAN YOU PLEASE TELL ME HOW I

CAN STRENGTHEN MY FAITH WALK

WITH GOD?

I WANT TO HAVE A BIGGER AND

BETTER RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM.

DOROTHY, FAITH COMES BY

HEARING, HEARING THE WORD OF

GOD.

YOU NEED TO LIVE INTO THE WORD.

YOU NEED TO SEEK HIM.

SEEK MY FACE.

WHEN I AM PRAYING, MORE

RECENTLY, I HAVE JUST HAD A

TIME OF PRAYER, I HAVE BEEN

CRYING OUT TO GOD, I WANT MORE

OF HIM.

YOU KNOW, JESUS, ASKING YOU

SHALL RECEIVE THAT YOUR JOY

MIGHT BE FULL.

GOD SPOKE TO JEREMIAH, HE SAID,

I WILL SHOW YOU GREAT AND

MIGHTY THINGS YOU KNEW NOT OF.

ASK OF ME AND I WILL GIVE YOU.

I THINK, WHEN WE COME BEFORE

THE LORD AND WE WANT MORE OF

HIM AND YOU CRY OUT TO HIM, GOD

WILL LISTEN TO YOUR PRAYER.

FAITH ALSO COMES BY THE WORD.

YOU SEE THE PROMISES, YOU LIVE

IN THE PSALMS, YOU READ THE OLD

AND NEW TESTAMENTS.

READ THOSE PSALMS AND THOSE

PROMISES AND LET THEM BE PART

OF YOUR LIFE.

AMEN.

GREAT WORK, PAT.

THERE IS ALWAYS MORE.

UP NEXT, ROUND TWO OF OUR

SPECIAL VOICEMAIL ADDITION OF

YOUR QUESTIONS AND PAT'S HONEST

ANSWERS.

STAY TUNED.

> WELCOME BACK TO ROUND TWO

OF OUR SPECIAL 700 CLUB WITH

PAT IN YOUR VOICEMAIL

QUESTIONS.

WE WILL START WITH BEVERLY FROM

ALBANY, NEW YORK.

I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHY GOD

ANSWERS PRAYERS VERY QUICKLY

AND OTHER TIMES WE HAVE TO WAIT

MONTHS AND YEARS TO GET OUR

PRAYERS ANSWERED?

BEVERLY, I WISH I HAD THE

ANSWER TO THAT.

I REALLY DON'T.

YOU KNOW, GOD IS WISE.

WHAT HE SEES IS THE

CONSEQUENCES OF EVERYTHING YOU

ARE ASKING FOR.

I WANT A QUICK ANSWER RIGHT

NOW, BOOM.

YOU REMEMBER WHEN HEZEKIAH WAS

PRAYING? GOD SENT OF PROFIT AND

SAID, GET YOURSELF LINED UP AND

GET IN ORDER.

HE WENT AND BEGAN TO PRAY.

HE SAID, GUIDE ME, GOD, I HAVE

SERVED YOU WELL ALL THESE YEARS

AND I DON'T WANT MY LIFE TO END

NOW.

GOD SAID TO THE PROPHET, OKAY.

I WILL GIVE YOU 15 MORE YEARS.

HE HAD AN ANSWER TO HIS PRAYER.

DURING THAT TIME, HE BEGAT A

SON, WHO WAS ONE OF THE MOST

WICKED KINGS THEY EVER HAD IN

ISRAEL, WHO LED THE COUNTRY

INTO TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE THINGS.

GOD, MANY TIMES, SEES THE

CONSEQUENCES OF WHAT YOU ARE

ASKING FOR AND WON'T GIVE IT TO

YOU BECAUSE IT WILL HURT YOU.

HE KNOWS THINGS YOU DON'T KNOW.

ONE THING, DON'T BE FRUSTRATED.

IT IS SO EASY TO WIND YOUR WAY

TO TELL GOD HOW HE IS SUPPOSED

TO DO IT.

THE BEST THING IS TO SAY, I

SUBMIT TO YOUR WILL, LORD,

WHATEVER IS RIGHT FOR YOU.

HAVING HEARD FROM GOD, THEN YOU

DECLARE IT, THEN YOU BEGIN TO

MOVE IN FAITH IN RELATION TO

THE WORD OF GOD THAT HAS BEEN

GIVEN TO YOUR.

I PRAY FOR A LONG TIME FOR

US.

I FINALLY GOT THE RIGHT ONE.

SOME OF THE ONES YOU HAD

BEFORE WERE TERRIBLE.

GOD GAVEYOU ONE BETTER.

HE GAVE YOU A HUSBAND THAT

LIKES TO LOVE AND FISH.

A MAN'S MAN.

PAT SPEAKS THE TRUTH.

HERE WE GO . BRIAN FROM CAMDEN,

SOUTH CAROLINA HAS THIS

QUESTION.

I DON'T BELIEVE IN DIVORCE.

MY WIFE AND I HAVE BEEN

SEPARATED FOR SEVEN YEARS.

I LOVE HER DEARLY AND NEITHER

ONE OF US HAVE BEEN WITH

ANOTHER PERSON, AND WE STILL

COMMUNICATE.

I AM JUST WONDERING, IS IT

RIGHT FOR ME TO CONTINUE TO

HAVE HOPE AND TO PRAY FOR

RESURRECTION OF OUR MARRIAGE

AND OUR RELATIONSHIP?

BRIAN, YOU ARE A WONDERFUL

GUY, THAT ATTITUDE WILL PLEASE

THE LORD.

THE LORD SAYS, I HATE DIVORCE,

HATE PUTTING AWAY.

AT THE SAME TIME, THERE IS A

TIME WHEN A MAN WILL LEAVE A

WOMAN OR A WOMAN WILL LEAVE A

MN, ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE NOT

BELIEVERS, PAUL SAID UNDER

THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES, THE

BROTHER OR SISTER IS NOT BOUND.

I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT TO

SAY.

YOU CAN CONTINUE TO PRAY.

TE QUESTION IS, YOU ARE

TALKING ABOUT YOU, BUT WHAT

ABOUT YOUR WIFE?

SHE WANT TO LIVE WITH YOU

ANYMORE?

HAS SHE WALKED AWAY?

IS SHE HAVING ANOTHER

RELATIONSHIP WITH SOMEBODY

ELSE?

ALL OF THOSE THINGS, I DON'T

KNOW ABOUT THE ANSWER.

IF THE UNBELIEVING SPOUSE IS

PLACED APART, LET THEM DEPART.

THE BROTHER OR SISTER IS NOT

FOUND IN THAT CASE.

TO CONTINUE A SINGLE LIFE FOR

YEARS ON END, HOPING FOR

RECONCILIATION, I DO THINK, WHY

DON'T YOU GET HOLD OF YOUR WIFE

AND TALK TO HER?

@LIVE WITH ME ANYMORE OR DO YOU

HATE ME?

WHAT IS THE STATUS?

YOU ARE JUST SITTING HOME BY

YOURSELF AND HOPING YOUR WIFE

WILL CHANGE HER MIND?

I THINK YOU WANT TO GET

TOGETHER AND TALK ABOUT THIS

AND THEN YOU CAN FIND OUT WHAT

THE DEAL IS.

SEVEN YEARS, THE NUMBER OF

COMPLETION.

GOD WILL SPEAK TO HIM.

LOU SEAL FROM BRENTWOOD, NEW

YORK HAS THIS QUESTION FOR PAT.

THE BIBLE SAYS WE DIE ONCE,

SO HOW CAN PEOPLE GO TO HEAVEN

AND COME BACK?

IN OTHER WORDS, THEY SAY THEY

DIED, GO TO HEAVEN AND THEN

THEY COME BACK.

HOW CAN THEY DO THAT IF THE

BIBLE SAYS WE ONLY DIE ONCE?

I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE

TALKING ABOUT COMING BACK.

I THINK, THERE IS A

RESUSCITATION. PEOPLE DIE AND

THEN THEY ARE RESUSCITATED.

THE RESURRECTION IS A TIME WHEN

THE LORD WILL COME BACK AND THE

DEAD IN CHRIST WILL RISE.

HE WILL GIVE THEM NEW BODIES.

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT PEOPLE

COMING BACK, UNLESS YOU SAW IN

THE MOVIE SOMEPLACE.

IT IS NOT IN THE BIBLE.

PEOPLE DO NOT COME BACK.

THEY JUST HAVE THE NEAR-

DEATH EXPERIENCE.

THEY ARE RESUSCITATED BUT

THEY ARE NOT RESURRECTED.

BRENDA FROM HILDEBRANDT,

NORTH CAROLINA HAS THIS

QUESTION FOR PAT.

I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF

THERE'S ANY REASON WHY THE

UNITED STATES FLAG, IT'S A

CHRISTIAN FLAG, CANNOT BE

DISPLAYED IN THE CHURCH ?

I SEE NO REASON WHY YOU

SHOULDN'T DISPLAY THE FLAG IN

CHURCH.

IT IS A SYMBOL OF ALL THE

UNITED STATES.

THEIR IS A STAR FOR EACH STATE.

THE STARS AND BARS.

I DON'T KNOW ANY REASON NOT TO

HAVE IT, UNLESS THIS CHURCH IS

A SACRED PLACE AND THIS IS A

SECULAR FLAG.

ONE NATION UNDER GOD.

IT IS UP, YOU KNOW, WHAT

DOES THIS CHURCH WANT, WHAT IS

THE BODY OF THE CHURCH WANT?

IT IS NOT SIMPLE ONE WAY OR

ANOTHER.

I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD MAKE

PLACES OF WORSHIP INTO A

POLITICAL ARENA.

I THINK THAT IS THE DANGER THAT

COMES ABOUT WHEN WE WANT TO

POLITICIZE RELIGION.

THAT IS A DIFFERENT MATTER.

HIS IS A COLOR FROM

ABINGDON, VIRGINIA.

I WANTED TO ASK, GORDON USES

THE TERM, PREVAILING PRAYER.

WHAT DOES THAT TERM MEAN, WHERE

DOES IT COME FROM?

IT'S ONE I HAVE NEVER HEARD

BEFORE.

PREVAILING PRAYER MEANS YOU

KEEP ON PRAYING, IS WHAT I

THINK HE IS TALKING ABOUT.

I THINK BETTER THAN PREVAILING

IS THE WORD AND PRAYER TO NATE.

THAT MEANS YOU DON'T STOP, KEEP

ON ASKING, KEEP ON ASKING, KEEP

ON KNOCKING.

IT IS A GREAT PRESENT TENSE. IT

MEANS KEEP ON DOING IT.

I THINK THAT IS WHAT WE MEAN

WHEN WE TALK ABOUT PREVAILING,

WE ARE STILL PRAYING, WE ARE

STILL ASKING AND BELIEVING.

FOR SOME REASON, THAT IS THE

WAY GOD DESIGNED IT.

SOMETHINGS DO GET A ANSWER BUT

HE WANTS US TO NOT STOP UNTIL

WE GET THERE.

IT IS PRESENT TENSE.

IF ANYBODY ASKED, HE WILL

RECEIVE.

HE SAYS KEEP ON, KEEP ON, KEEP

ON.

THAT IS PREVAILING.

AMEN.

DANIEL FROM SAN DIEGO,

CALIFORNIA HAS A QUESTION.

GO AHEAD.

HERE IS MY QUESTION FOR PAT.

WHAT YOU THINK WILL HAPPEN WITH

INFLATION GOING FORWARD?

THE REASON WE HAVE INFLATION

IS TWOFOLD.

IT IS USUALLY TOO MUCH MONEY

CHASING TOO FEW GOODS.

WE HAVE A SUPPLY CHAIN SCREWUP,

WHERE SHIPS ARE BEING CROWDED

AND NOT UNLOADED LIKE THEY

SHOULD AND WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH

WORKERS TO UNLOAD THE BOATS.

THE WHOLE SUPPLY CHAIN IS

BACKED UP ACROSS THE PACIFIC.

THEY ARE FLOODING THE COUNTRY

WITH MONEY.

THAT IS CAUSING THIS TERRIBLE

INFLATION.

YOU KNOW, THE COST OF GASOLINE

HAS GONE UP $1.00 OR SO A

GALLON.

THE COST OF MEET, DARIAN ALL

KINDS OF GROCERY PRODUCTS HAVE

GONE UP DRAMATICALLY AS A

RESULT OF TOO MUCH MONEY.

THEY WANT TO PASS ANOTHER BILL

AND FLOOD THE COUNTRY WITH

MONEY.

THEY WILL DESTROY US.

WHEN IT HAPPENS AND IT IS

HAPPENING, REMEMBER WHAT

HAPPENED IN GERMANY, MAYBE YOU

DON'T REMEMBER, BUT RIGHT AFTER

WORLD WAR I, THEY STARTED

PRINTING MONEY.

IT GOT SO IT TOOK A BUSHEL TO

BUY A LOAF OF BREAD.

THE CURRENCY GETS DEVALUED BUT

WE HAVEN'T GOTTEN TO THAT PLACE

YET.

IT IS DANGEROUS AWAY IT IS

RIGHT NOW.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO TELL

YOU.

YOU KNOW WHAT IS EVEN WORSE?

I WENT TO STARBUCKS THE OTHER

MORNING AND THEY WERE CLOSED

BECAUSE THEY DID NOT HAVE

ENOUGH WORKERS.

OH YEAH, THE HOTELS ARE THE

SAME WAY.

THE HARD-PRESSED MANAGER AND

SOME OF HER STAFF WERE HAVING

TO CLEAN ROOMS.

SHE TOLD ME YESTERDAY, WE

FINALLY GOT SOME MORE STAFF IN

THERE.

IT WAS HARD TO HIRE WORKERS.

THE COST OF EVERYTHING HAS GONE

UP.

ALL RIGHT.

DIANE FROM ESCANABA, MICHIGAN

.

WHEN YOU DONATE TO OPERATION

BLESSING, DOES THAT COUNT

TOWARD YOUR TITHING FOR THE

MONTH?

AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED, IT

COUNTS.

I THINK THE BODY OF CHRIST, THE

BIBLE TALKS ABOUT BRINGING YOUR

TYPE TO THE STORE HOST.

I THINK THE STORE HOST IS THE

COLLECTIVE BODY OF GOD'S

PEOPLE.

CERTAINLY CHARITABLE

ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE WITHIN

THIS, SUCH AS OPERATION

BLESSINGS ARE PART OF THE BODY

OF CHRIST.

IN MY OPINION, THAT TITHE IS

APPROPRIATE.

AMEN.

THEY ARE CERTAINLY BUSY RIGHT

NOW.

ALL RIGHT.

HERE IS DONNA FROM MARION,

SOUTH CAROLINA WITH ANOTHER

QUESTION FOR PAT.

I AM CALLING TO LET YOU KNOW

THAT I THINK YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY

AMAZING.

I WANT TO KNOW YOUR HEALTH

REGIMEN.

WHAT ARE THE VITAMINS THAT YOU

TAKE?

WHAT YOU TAKE DAILY SO THAT I

CAN LIVE AS LONG AS YOU HAVE

LIVED?

YOU HAVE LIVED A LONG LIFE, AND

I WANT TO FOLLOW IN YOUR

FOOTSTEPS.

I WANT TO BE JUST LIKE YOU WHEN

I GROW UP.

I TELL YOU WHAT, I THINK

THIS WHOLE IDEA IS VERY

IMPORTANT TO BUILD, IT MEANS

THAT ANTIBIOTICS WILL KILL THE

GODS FLORA YOU HAVE WITHIN YOUR

BODY.

1 TRILLION LITTLE MICROBES WILL

CREATE A FLORA INSIDE OF YOU

THAT ACCOUNTS FOR ABOUT 80% OF

YOUR IMMUNE FUNCTION.

IT HELPS YOU BE HEALTHY AND IT

HELPS YOU LOSE WEIGHT AND ALL

OF THAT REST OF IT.

HOW DO YOU DO THAT?

THEY AWAY FROM ARTIFICIAL

SWEETENERS.

STAY AWAY FROM DIET SODA AND

DIET PEPSI AND STAY AWAY, IF

YOU POSSIBLY CAN, FROM

ANTIBIOTICS.

ON TOP OF THAT, FIND OUT THE

APPROPRIATE FRUITS AND

VEGETABLES THAT ARE FRESH, IF

YOU CAN GET THEM.

I TAKE AN ARRAY OF VITAMINS, I

DON'T WANT TO GO THROUGH THE

LIST BECAUSE IT IS TOO

EXTENSIVE, BUT I HAVE A LOT OF

THINGS THAT I THINK ARE

IMPORTANT.

THEY KEEP YOU HEALTHY, BUT YOU

HALF TO HAVE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT

THESE THINGS.

I THINK YOU CAN GET CARRIED

AWAY WITH IT.

THE BIGGEST THING, THE WHOLE

IDEA OF BUILDING A BETTER GUT

IS TO MAKE SURE THAT FLORA IS

APPROPRIATE . THERE ARE SEVERAL

MILLION OF THEM.

MAYBE EVEN AS MANY AS 8

TRILLION IN YOUR INSIDE TO KEEP

YOU HEALTHY.

THAT IS YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM THAT

HELPS YOUR MIND AND YOUR WHOLE

HEALTH SYSTEM.

80% OF YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM IS IN

THAT GUT.

SOMEBODY, ONE OF THE ANCIENT

SCHOLARS, I CAN'T REMEMBER HIS

NAME, HE SAID HEALING BEGINS IN

THE GUT.

THAT SOUNDS LIKE

HIPPOCRATES.

THAT IS WHAT I WAS THINKING.

THAT IS WHO I WAS THINKING OF.

FIRST DO NO HARM.

WHAT ELSE?

MICHELLE FROM ELKTON,

MARYLAND. GO AHEAD.

THANK YOU FOR ALL THE

WONDERFUL SHOWS YOU HAVE GIVEN

US AND ALL THE BLESSINGS YOU

HAVE BESTOWED UPON US, SIR.

MY QUESTION FOR YOU TODAY IS,

WHERE DO YOU SAY GOD CAME FROM?

IS THAT A BAD QUESTION FOR ME

TO ASK?

SHOULD I NOT BE ASKING THAT?

YOU KNOW, THE BIBLE DOESN'T

EVER TELL US THAT.

YOU KNOW, YOU WOULD LIKE TO

KNOW, THEY USED TO HAVE, IN THE

MIDDLE AGES, THEY DID THIS DEAL

WHERE THEY FINALLY KEPT GOING

BACK. THEY CAME UP WITH NOTHING.

THROUGH OUR REASONING, THE

BIBLE STARTS OUT AND SAYS, IN

THE BEGINNING, THERE IS A GOD

WHO IS A CREATOR.

HE CREATED THE ENORMOUS

UNIVERSE.

THERE ARE 1 BILLION TRILLION, 1

BILLION TRILLION STARS THE SIZE

OF OUR SUN IN THE UNIVERSE.

IT IS ENORMOUS.

THE GOD WE WORSHIP, HE USES THE

VERB, TO BE, AND HIS NAME IS

YAHWEH. IT MEANS HE WHO CAUSED

EVERYTHING TO BE.

WE DON'T HAVE WHERE HE CAME

FROM.

HE HAS GIVEN US ALL THE

PRINCIPLES WE NEED TO KNOW TO

PLEASE HIM AND LIVE FOR HIM IN

THIS LIKE THAT WE HAVE.

I DON'T KNOW, THERE IS NOBODY

WHO COULD POSSIBLY TELL YOU

WHERE GOD CAME FROM. IN THE

BEGINNING, GOD. THAT IS THE WAY

THE BIBLE STARTS, DOESN'T IT?

YOU ARE GOD, HOW DO YOU WANT ME

TO LIVE TO PLEASE YOU?

WHAT WILL BRING YOUR BLESSING?

WHAT WILL BRING YOUR FAVOR?

I PRAY FOR FAVOR AND DIE WOULD

INVITE -- AND I PRAY TO PLEASE

HIM AND I ADVISE YOU TO DO THE

SAME.

IN TERMS OF WHERE HE CAME FROM,

NOBODY KNOWS AND I MEAN NOBODY,

THERE IS NOT ONE HUMAN BEING

WHO WOULD POSSIBLY TELL YOU

WHERE GOD BECAME FROM.

WE DON'T KNOW WHICH CAME

FIRST, THE CHICKEN OR THE EGG,

EITHER.

[ LAUGHTER ] I TELL YOU

WHAT, WHAT CAME FOR US WAS THE

CONCEPT OF THE CHICKEN IN THE

MIND OF GOD HE CREATED THE

CHICKEN AND THEN THE CHICKEN

LAYS AN AIDE.

HE SAID A MECHANISM IN PLACE SO

IT WOULD REPRODUCE.

THAT IS THE WISDOM OF GOD

AGAIN.

WE KNOW THE ANSWER.

THE CHICKEN CAME FIRST.

THE CONCEPT OF THE CHICKEN

IN THE MIND OF GOD IS WHAT CAME

FIRST.

THE NEXT CALLER IS FROM

KINGSTON, PENNSYLVANIA.

IF JESUS SAID, NO ONE COMES

TO THE FATHER BUT THROUGH ME,

MY QUESTION IS, WHAT HAPPENS TO

OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS OF THE

JEWISH FAITH?

I BELIEVE, ACCORDING TO THE

APOSTLE PAUL, ALL ISRAEL WILL

BE SAVED.

THERE WILL COME A TIME OF GREAT

MOVEMENT.

PAUL SAID THEY WOULD RISE FROM

THE DEAD.

WE HAVE MORE AND MORE WONDERFUL

PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPECTED JESUS

AS SAVIOR.

GOD WILL LOOK AFTER HIS.

WHEN YOU READ ROMANS, HE SAYS

ALL ISRAEL WILL BE SAVED.

I AM COUNTING ON THAT FOR THEM .

WHEN THEY WERE CUT OFF FROM THE

BRANCH, WE WERE GRAFTED IN,

THEY ARE THE NATURAL HEIRS OF

ABRAHAM.

WE, AS GENTILES, HAVE BEEN

GRAFTED IN. WE TAKE WHAT WE

HAVE FROM ISRAEL . IT IS IN

GOD'S HANDS AS TO WHEN THAT

WILL HAPPEN BUT PAUL SAID ALL

OF ISRAEL WILL BE SAFE.

AMEN.

LET IT BE.

HERE IS THELMA FROM CLEVELAND,

OHIO FOR THIS QUESTION.

MY QUESTION FOR PAT IS, WHAT

IS GOD'S KINGDOM?

THY KINGDOM COME, THEY WILL

BE DONE, AS EARTH AND IT IS IN

HEAVEN.

WHAT IS THE KINGDOM OF GOD?

IT IS THE AREA WHERE HIS WILL

IS DONE.

IN HEAVEN, EVERYTHING IS

ACCORDING TO HIM BECAUSE HE

JUST THINKS IT IS DONE AND HE

SPEAKS IT IS DONE.

THAT IS THE KINGDOM OF GOD.

THAT KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE

DONE, AS EARTH AS IT IS IN

HEAVEN, LET THE KINGDOM OF GOD

LET THE PLACE WHERE GOD'S

POWER, GOD'S WILL, GOD'S LOVE

IS DONE.

IF YOU ARE PART OF THAT, IT IS

A DOMAIN WHERE GOD IS IN

CONTROL.

GOOD WORK.

HERE IS DIANA FROM BALTIMORE,

MARYLAND WITH THIS ONE.

I WAS WONDERING, WHERE ARE

WE, AS FAR AS THE UNITED

STATES, IN THE BIBLE TODAY?

YOU KNOW, IT IS KIND OF HARD

TO FIND.

IF YOU LOOK AT EZEKIEL, YOU

WILL FIND WHAT IS CALLED THE

AND LINES OF TORTIOUS.

THAT WAS THE AREA BEYOND THE

MEDITERRANEAN, THE LITTLE PLACE

PROBABLY IN ENGLAND.

I THINK, IF THERE WAS EVER A

REFERENCE TO THE UNITED STATES,

IT IS THAT REFERENCE.

WE ARE DESCENDENTS OF TARSHISH.

I HAVE HEARD PEOPLE SAY WE ARE

THE MYSTERY FATHER OF HARLOTS.

THERE IS A LOT OF STUFF IN

THERE ABOUT THE UNITED STATES.

IF YOU READ IT IN, IT IS VERY

HARD.

YOU HAVE TO DO A LITTLE MENTAL

GYMNASTICS TO GET TO THAT

PLACE.

THE TRUTH IS, THE UNITED

STATES, PER SE, IS NOT REALLY

MENTIONED IN THE BIBLE.

WE KNOW SO MANY MIRACLES

HAPPEN.

WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE

KINGDOMS, THE VARIOUS KINGDOMS

OF TARA MERGEMER TO.

WE ARE AN EXTENSION OF ROME.

WE ARE SEEING THAT IS THE LAST

OF THE KINGDOMS . THERE WERE

THE GREEKS AND VARIOUS ONCE,

ALEXANDER THE GREAT AND SO

FORTH, I THINK WE ARE A

CONTINUATION OF ROME.

INTERESTING.

THAT MAKE SENSE.

THE TRUTH IS, THE UNITED

STATES IS GREATER THAN ALL

THOSE GUYS PUT TOGETHER.

NONE OF THEM ARE EVEN CLOSE.

THE POWER OF THE UNITED STATES,

THE WEALTH OF THE UNITED STATES,

THEY ARE POPPERS COMPARED TO

WHAT WE HAVE IN THIS COUNTRY.

THIS IS THE LAST GREAT KINGDOM.

THE KINGDOM WILL LAST FOREVER

IS THE KINGDOM OF GOD.

I THINK WE ARE HERE TO USHER IN

THE COMING OF THE GREAT

KINGDOM, WHICH IS THE KINGDOM

OF THE LORD, JESUS CHRIST.

AMEN.

THANK YOU, PAT.

STILL AHEAD, LAST CALL, THE

THIRD AND FINAL ROUND OF THIS

VOICEMAIL EDITION OF YOUR

QUESTIONS/HONEST ANSWERS.

THAT IS COMING UP NEXT.

STAY WITH US.

> WELCOME BACK TO OUR FINAL

ROUND OF THIS SPECIAL EDITION

OF "THE 700 CLUB", WHERE WE

HEAR FROM YOU, YOUR VOICEMAILS

. PAT IS HERE TO ANSWER.

WE'VE GOT THIS CALLER, ALLEN

FROM SEATTLE, WASHINGTON.

GO AHEAD.

IWATCH "THE 700 CLUB" EVERY

DAY.

MY QUESTION IS, HOW WOULD YOU

BLESS AND PRAISE GOD?

I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW I CAN

BLESS GOD AND I DON'T

UNDERSTAND THE WORDS TO USE IN

PRAISING GOD, OTHER THAN TO

TELL HIM I LOVE HIM AND TO

THANK HIM FOR BEING AS GREAT AS

HE IS AND ALL THAT HE IS.

YOU KNOW, YOU DO TWO THINGS

WITH GOD.

YOU ENTER INTO HIM WITH

THANKSGIVING AND INTO HIS

PRESENCE WITH PRAISE.

YOU THANK HIM FOR WHAT HE HAS

DONE.

YOU COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS.

YOU THINK OF YOUR HEALTH, YOU

THINK ABOUT YOUR FAMILY, YOU

@YOUR LOVED ONES. UR JOB OR

YOU THINK ABOUT THE FACT YOU

HAVE BEEN BORN IN THE UNITED

STATES OF AMERICA, THAT YOU ARE

FREE.

YOU CAN THANK HIM FOR ALL OF

THESE THINGS.

THEN YOU CAN PRAISE HIM FOR WHO

HE IS.

HE IS LOVING, HE IS KIND, HE IS

COMPASSIONATE.

HE IS ALL-KNOWING.

HE IS MERCIFUL.

YOU CAN PRAISE HIM FOR BEING

WHO HE IS.

JUST CONCENTRATE AND CONTEMPLATE

THE SPLENDOR AND THE

AWESOMENESS AND THE LOVE OF GOD.

THOSE TWO THINGS ARE WHAT YOU

NEED TO DO WHEN YOU ARE ASKING

HOW TO PRAISE HIM.

YOU THANK HIM FOR WHAT HE HAS

DONE FOR YOU, YOU PRAISE HIM

FOR WHO HE IS.

LET YOUR MIND JUST FOCUS ON

THOSE THINGS. IT WILL BRING YOU

TO A NEW DIMENSION WITH THE

LORD.

IT HELPS ME TO PUT ON PRAISE

MUSIC AND JUST SAY THE WORDS OF

THE SONG.

EXACTLY.

YOU CAN PRAY THE SONG, IF YOU

WANT TO.

DAVID, I'VE GOT THAT BOOK I

HAVE JUST FINISHED ON DAVID,

DAVID WROTE MANY, MANY PSALMS.

THANK YOU, LORD, I BLESS THE

LORD WITH ALL MY HEART.

FROM NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT,

ANNE HAS THIS QUESTION FOR PAT.

MY QUESTION FOR PAT IS, IS

THERE A DESCENDENT OF KING

DAVID IN ISRAEL TODAY AND IS

HE INVOLVED IN POLITICS?

IF THERE IS A DESCENDENT OF

DAVID, I DON'T KNOW WHO HE IS,

WHERE HE IS OR IF HE IS

INVOLVED IN POLITICS.

AS I SAID, I WROTE THIS -- READ

THIS BOOK ON DAVID, ONE PERSON

SAYS THEY THINK IT IS THE FIRST

BOOK ON DAVID BUT I REALLY GOT

INTO THE FACT ON WHO HE IS.

HE IS AN AMAZING PERSON.

WHEN YOU READ REVELATION, JESUS

CHRIST SAID I AM OF THE BRANCH

OF DAVID.

THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT DAVID

THAT WAS BORN THIS DAY IN THE

CITY OF DAVID, OUR SAVIOR,

CHRIST THE LORD.

IS THERE SOMEBODY LIVING RIGHT

NOW WHO IS A DESCENDENT OF

DAVID IN ISRAEL.

WOULD HAVE TO BE THE TRIBE OF

JUDAH.

THE PRIESTLY TRIBE, I DON'T

KNOW OF ANY PERSON. WE ARE

TALKING ABOUT ZIONISTS AND ZION

IS THE CITY OF DAVID.

IS OR ANYBODY?

YOU ASKED ME IF THERE IS A

RELATIVE OF HIS, REALLY, I HAVE

NO IDEA IF THERE IS AT ALL.

I DO KNOW IN REVELATION, WHEN

IT SHOWS JESUS CHRIST, HE IS

THE OFFSPRIG OF DAVID, IT IS

IN THERE VERY CLEARLY.

INTERESTING TO KNOW BUT WE

DON'T KNOW.

HERE IS VANCE FROM SAN

AUGUSTINE, TEXAS.

GORDON JUST MENTIONED

EARLIER ABOUT HUMBLING

OURSELVES BEFORE GOD.

I'M NOT REAL FAMILIAR WITH

THAT.

COULD YOU EXPLAIN THAT, PLEASE?

HOW DO WE HUMBLE OURSELVES

BEFORE GOD?

I TELL YOU, A FEW YEARS AGO,

I WAS ASKING GOD FOR SOMETHING

AND I HAD ALREADY GOT DOWN ON MY

FACE BEFORE THE LORD EVERY

SINGLE DAY.

YOU SAY, GOD, YOU ARE

EVERYTHING AND I AM NOTHING.

IT IS REALLY EASY TO DO.

HE SAYS, WHEN YOU THINK OF WHAT

YOU ARE DOING, SEE WHAT

@DONE IN OUR DUTY. TS WE HAVE

COME BEFORE THE LORD AND SAY,

LORD, I AM NOTHING BEFORE YOU,

I AM NOTHING.

REMEMBER, JESUS TALKED ABOUT

TWO PEOPLE PRAYING.

ONE PHARISEE WAS SAYING, LORD,

I AM THANK YOU I HAVE TIED WHAT

I HAVE AND I AM A GOOD GUY AND

I AM ALL THESE WONDERFUL

THINGS.

THE OTHER ONE SAID, GOD, BE

MERCIFUL TO ME, A SINNER.

I THINK THAT IS THE ATTITUDE WE

NEED TO COME BEFORE GOD.

I AM A SINNER.

I DON'T DESERVE MANY OF THESE

THINGS.

I THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR

GOODNESS AND TO SAY I AM AN

UNPROFITABLE SERVANT.

I WANT TO DO MY DUTY.

THAT IS HOW YOU HUMBLE

YOURSELF.

REMIND YOURSELF HOW GREAT GOD

IS AND HOW SMALL YOU ARE.

AMEN.

THANKS, PAT.

HERE IS JIM FROM BALTIMORE,

MARYLAND.

I LIKE TO KNOW WHAT THE

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE WHITE

THRONE OF JUDGMENT AND THE

JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST .

YOU KNOW, I WAS READING JUST

A COUPLE DAYS AGO ABOUT JESUS.

HE SAID, YOU KNOW, IN THE

LATTER DAYS, WHEN I AM SITTING

ON MY THRONE AND ALONG WITH THE

HOLY ANGELS, I WILL BRING ALL

TH NATIONS BEFORE ME.

I WILL SAY TO THESE NATIONS, I

WAS HUNGRY AND YOU FED ME.

I WAS NAKED AND YOU CLOTHED ME.

I WAS SICK AND IN PRISON AND

YOU CAME TO ME.

THE RIGHTEOUS WILL SAY, WHEN DO

WE DO THAT?

HE WILL SAY, AS MUCH AS YOU DID

IT UNDER MY BRETHREN, YOU DID

TO ME. THE KINGDOM WAS PREPARED

FOR YOU FROM THE FOUNDATION OF

THE EARTH.

THE OTHERS WILL SAY, WE DIDN'T

KNOW YOU AND HE SAYS, YOU WILL

GO INTO THE FIRE OF PREPARED

BY THE DEVIL OF ANGELS.

IT IS REALLY A TOUGH THING.

WHAT IS A WHITE THRONE

JUDGMENT?

IN REVELATION, IT TALKS ABOUT

THE FINAL JUDGMENT.

THE BOOKS ARE OPENED.

GOD WILL TAKE CARE OF THOSE WHO

HAVE BEEN WRITTEN IN THE BOOK.

THEY WILL BE HONORED AND THERE

ARE THOSE WHO WON'T.

THERE IS THE JUDGMENT SEAT OF

CHRIST,WHERE WE ARE ACCOUNTED

FOR THINGS DONE TO OUR BODIES.

I CAN GIVE YOU TWO OR THREE

THINGS WE DO KNOW ABOUT, HOW

THEY ALL COINCIDE, I DON'T KNOW

EXACTLY THE ANSWER.

ALL RIGHT.

YOU KNOW MORE THAN US, PAT.

[ LAUGHTER ], I HAVE GIVEN

YOU A LOT OF HISTORY.

I APPRECIATE IT.

HERE IS CORI FROM NEW YORK

CITY.

I'D LIKE TO KNOW, DID ALL

THOSE PEOPLE WHO DIED IN THE

FLOOD OF NOAH, DID THEY GO TO ?

FRANKLY, I THINK THEY

PROBABLY DID BECAUSE THEY WERE

ALL EVIL.

THE BIBLE SAYS EVERY THOUGHT

OF THE IMAGINATION OF THEIR

HEARTS WAS EVIL CONTINUOUSLY.

THERE WAS VIOLENCE IN THE LAND

SO THEY WERE TERRIBLE PEOPLE.

WHEN THE FLOOD CAME, HE

DESTROYED THEM ALL.

DID THEY GO TO ? IS IN GOD'S

HANDS, IT IS NOT A MIND IN

MINE.

DEPENDS ON GOD, IT DEPENDS ON

SOMEONE'S MIND AT THE MOMENT HE

TAKES THEM.

YOU SAY NORMALLY, THEY DESERVE

AND THAT WAS THE PLACE FOR

THEM.

ONLY GOD KNOWS THE ANSWER TO

THAT.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I WISH WE HAD MORE TIME.

IT HAS BEEN FUN.

@GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU. E.

WE LEAVE YOU WITH TODAY'S PRAYER

"ALL SCRIPTURE IS GOD-BREATHED

AND IS USEFUL FOR TEACHING,

REBUKING, CORRECTING AND

TRAINING IN RIGHTEOUSNESS."

(2 TIMOTHY 3:16 NIV) GOD BLESS
