  Speaker 1: The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want. He
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: maketh me to lie down in green pastures. He leads
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: me beside the steel waters. He restores my soul. He
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: leads me in the path of righteousness for His namesake.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: And even though I go through the valley of the
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: shadow of death, I will fear no evil. Why because
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: God is with me. He will prepare a table before
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: me in the presence of my enemies. He has already
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: anointed my head with oil, and my cup runs over.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: And this is the part I really love. Surely, his
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: good and his mercy shall follow me all the days
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: of my life, and I shall dwell in the House
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: of the Lord for ever. What a blessed what a
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: blessed assurance for the people of God. Amen, We thank
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: God again for this another day that He has allowed
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: us to see. We welcome you once again to this
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: another edition of End Time Revival Ministries USA podcast. I
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: am your host, Pastor al Zachary, and today we continue
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: a man with these marvelous, marvelous Amen. Request of Jesus
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: in this divine prayer, Amen, this intercessory prayer, his high
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: priestly prayer that found in the Gospel of John chapter
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: number seventeen. Amen, thank God that Jesus prayed for us.
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: And so we amen again, standing here in this day
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: and this hour, in this season, and such a time
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: as days, because God has appointed us for such a
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: time as this. And we endeavor, by the grace of God,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: by the help of God, to continue a man disseminating
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: the word of the Living God and praying and believing
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: and trusting the Holy Spirit to work within the hearts
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: of men and women everywhere, that people will come to
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: see and know, trust and believe in the great hope,
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: the one and only hope of salvation, that is in Christ,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: Jesus our Lord. We pray that eyes will be open,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: ears will be attuned in heart will be changed by
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: the word of the Living God. The apostle Paul wrote
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Romans chapter one, for I am not ashamed of the
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: Gospel of Jesus Christ, for it is the power of
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: God and to salvation to everyone that believes. Amen. And
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: that is what we're going to focus on today in
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: this portion of a prayer, that Jesus a man again
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: interceeding on our behalf prayed. Amen. For Amen, his apostles,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: and what we're going to see. Also for the church,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: for those.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Who will believe, for those who will believe the Gospel
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: of John chapter seventeen, will go there and just a moment,
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: but before we do, of course, that's always we take
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: just a moment, Amen.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: To precede the word of the Lord with prayer. Father, again,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: we thank you for every listening ear and every obedient heart.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: We thank you for the word that you've already sent forth,
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: that you've already amen, commended prosperity on, you've already prospered,
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Amen to where you send it. Lord, We just simply
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: pray that somebody somewhere Amen, will hear the voice of
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: the Savior as you knock at the door of the heart, Amen,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: and they will open and allow you to come in
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: and sup with them and be in them, transform their
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: mind and their ways. Oh God, to be more like you, God,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: We thank you. We glorify your name. We pray your
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: blessings upon your people everywhere. It's in the name of Jesus, Amen,
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: and Amen. For those who will believe, for those who
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: will believe, we desperately need prayer. We need prayer in
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: our homes, We need prayer in our communities. We certainly
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: even need prayer, more prayer in our churches. The world
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: is not going to pray. The world is not going
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: to seek the face of God. They're not going to
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: seek answers from the Lord. The world is in opposition,
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: they are enemies. They are in hatred and rebellion against God.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: We read from this, I believe in some number two.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Why do the heathen rage? They set themselves against the Lord,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: against his anointed, against the counsel of the Lord. And
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: so we know that the world is not going to
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: pray and intercede. Bible tells us if God's people, if
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: God's people would pray, if God's people would seek his face,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: if God's people would turn away from wickedness a man,
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: we would see a great outpouring in the land. We
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: would see healing, we would see peace a man like
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: we've never known before. But the good news for the church,
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: the good news for the Church of Jesus Christ, is
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: that Jesus prayed for us, and his interceding on our
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: behalf is done. It is accomplished, it is successful. On
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: this rock. Jesus said, I will build my church, and
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: the gates of Hell shall not prevail against the True
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Church of the Living God. There is no weapon that
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: is form, nor any device that can be a man imagined,
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: that can prosper against the Church. Paul said, I am
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities,
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, height,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: nor death, nor any other creature is able to separate
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: us from the love of God, which is in Christ. Jesus,
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: our Lord. God loved us, and he loves us with
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: an everlasting love. He loved us, and he knew us
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: before the foundation of the world. He said to the
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: prophet Jeremiah, before I formed you in the womb, I
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: knew you, I ordained you. And God knows them that
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: are His. The foundation, the Bible says of God stands
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: sure having this seal. The Lord knows them that are His.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: And let everyone who names the name of Christ depart
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: from iniquity. The Church of Jesus Christ will stand. It
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: will stand the test of time, through the trials and tribulations,
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: through the fiery a man trials of this life. A man.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: God will protect his own, his sheep. Here his voice strangers.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: They do not follow man, and they are in the
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Father's hand. And no one is able to pluck them
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: out of his hand. The Bible, of course, is filled
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: with prayers of all kinds, from the book of Genesis,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: the very beginning to the Revelation of Jesus Christ, the
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: last book of the Bible. The Gospel writers, of course,
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: as we can see, they recorded a man how that
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: Jesus often engaged in prayer, and by the way he
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: taught us how to pray. The disciples ask this request
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: of Jesus, Lord, teach us how to pray, and Jesus
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: gave us a man a model prayer which begins with
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: our Father, which are in Heaven, acknowledging him, acknowledging where
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: he is and who he is is authority, a man,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: him being a man, the God of a man, creation,
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: the God who is overall. Give us this day our
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: daily bread. Make your request known to God, Amen, knowing
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: that he is able to do, exceeding abundantly and above
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: all that we can ask or think. So Jesus himself prayed.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: He taught us how to pray, and we read about
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: him praying just before he would be betrayed, even by
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Judas in the Garden of Smite. If you remember a
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: man before he would be delivered over to the Roman
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: government to be crucified, died that gruesome death on our
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: behalf for our sins, for our transgressions. Amen. We read
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: of Jesus going away a man time after time by himself,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: a man to be in prayer, but exclusively recorded in
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: the Gospel of John a man. We have the intercessory
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: prayer of Jesus that he prayed for his apostles, whom
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: he commissioned a man, and whom he sent out. And
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: he warned them beforehand of how they would be treated.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: They would be hated, just as He was hated. Amen.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: Knowingly Amen. And of course again informed them that they
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: will be going into hostile territory to preach the gospel. Amen.
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: And before all of this transpired, of course, Jesus prayed
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: for them. He did not pray for the world. He
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: said that very specifically, so I do not pray for
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: the world. He prayed very specifically for his disciples. He
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: prayed that they would be kept and none of them
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: would be lost. He prayed that they would have His
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: joy fulfilled in them. He prayed also that they should
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: be kept from the evil One while they were in
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: this world. He then prayed that they would be sanctified
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: by the truth. Amen. And then, of course what we're
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: seeing on today. He included ever rebeliever of the Gospel
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: that would be preached in all the world. We the
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Church of the Life, Living God. Jesus prayed for us.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: He prayed for those who will believe. Amen, if we
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: are true believers in Jesus as the son of the
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: Living God, if we believe that he has exalted and
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: seated at the right hand of the Majesty on high,
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: and if we believe that Jesus is interceding on our behalf.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: That's found in Romans chapter eight as well. A man,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: we ought to be ecstatic and fully confident in this
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: prayer that Jesus prayed for his disciples, for his apostles,
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: and for those who will believe in him. It's recorded
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: in John's Gospel, chapter seventeen. We pick it up at
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: verse number fifteen. Jesus said, listen carefully. I do not
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: pray that you should take them out of the world,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: but that you should keep them from the evil one.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: We talked about that already in a previous podcast. Jesus said,
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: they are not of the world, just as I am
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: not of the world. Sanctify them by your truth. Your
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: word is truth that was in our previous podcasts. As
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: you have sent me into the world, I also have
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: sent them into the world, and for their sakes, I
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: sanctified myself that they also may be sanctified by the truth.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Now listen what Jesus says verse twenty. Here's our key
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: verse for today. I do not pray for these alone.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Who are these the apostles whom he would send forth
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: the disciples who believed on him. I do not pray
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: for these alone, but also for those who will believe
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: in me through their word a man, Amen, Amen, Amen.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: All right, Now, let's let let me ponder this for
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: just a moment here. Ah, one could argue, quite persuasively,
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: that it should have been much easier for the apostles
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: to believe in Jesus. Amen, because they were there with him.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: They were eyewitnesses. They they, most of them, the vast
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: majority of them, I believe, had been with Jesus for
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: the entirety of the three and a half years of
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: his earthly ministry, and so they saw the miracles. They
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: they even Peter, James and John, by the way, the
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: Inner Circle we called them. They saw him in the transfiguration.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: So they saw his majesty blend. They saw the demonstration
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: of his power, his power over nature, his power over
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: the demonic rem his power over sickness and disease and infirmities.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: They saw all of this. And then they witnessed his
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: ultimate and astonishing triumph over death, over the grave. Amen.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: When they saw his resurrected body, when they touched him,
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: when they conversed with him and ate with him post resurrection.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: After and then of course the last sighting of him
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: the cloud Acts Chapter one. They were there when Jesus
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: was taken up on a cloud, back up into heaven,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: back up into glory. From whence he came. And then
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: angels or an angel I believe, Amen, was there, and
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: he said to them, why why do you stand gazing
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: up into heaven? This same Jesus that you have seen
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: taken up Amen, into heaven. Amen, will so come in
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: like manner He's coming back. That's the promise. Amen. By
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: the way, the great promise, the great hope of the Church, Amen,
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: the return of Jesus Christ into Amen, this world.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: Amen.
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: And of course we know Amen, he will reign and
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: ruin forever. But Amen, Jesus, by the way before a man.
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: We see in this prayer in John chapter seventeen. Well
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: he also, well, I say what say later he pronounced
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: this Amen, special blessing upon those who would believe. Amen,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: because a man again we can we can again argue
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: that it's easier, and it was easier for the disciples
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: to believe on Jesus because again they spent so much
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: time with him, and they had witnessed so many things
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: with their own eyes and saw what their own saw,
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: what their own eyes heart, with their own ears his
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: teaching directly. Amen. And but listen, I want you to
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: see something in John's Gospel, also in chapter twenty and
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: I want to read verses twenty six through twenty nine.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: This is a special, special, special blessing. I believe that
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: Jesus pronounces on those of us who believe on him
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: a man through the preaching of the gospel. Listen, what happens.
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: This is after Jesus has resurrected from the dead. Amen.
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: After eight days, his disciples were again inside, and Thomas
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: with them. Jesus came the doors being shut, and stood
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: in the midst and said peace to you. Then he
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: said to Thomas, reach your finger here and look at
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: my hands. Now again. For those of you who may
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: not be familiar with the background of this, Thomas, a
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: man was we refer to him as doubting Thomas. In
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: this case. You don't know where that comes from. It
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: emanates from the Bible, from the scriptures, Thomas being one
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: of the disciples of Jesus, he was not present when
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: they had seen Jesus earlier. And Thomas made a proclamation
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: and said, I will not believe. I refuse to believe.
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: I know I saw him crucified. I know that he
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: was laid in the grave. I know that he died.
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: I will not believe that he is alive. I will
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: not believe that he is living. And you have seen him.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: I don't care what you guys say. I'm not gonna
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: believe until I see him, until I feel his body,
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: until I touch and see the place where he was
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: pierced in the side, because I witnessed it. I saw it.
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: I know they pierced him in the side. I know
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: they nailed him. They drove those spikes through his hand
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: and through his feet. Unless I see it with my
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: own eyes, Thomas said, I will not believe. So now
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: you know why. Jesus goes specifically to Thomas, and he
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: said to Thomas verse twenty seven, reach your finger here, Thomas,
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: and look at my hand, Thomas. And reach your hand here, Thomas,
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: and put it into my side. Thomas. Do not be unbelieving.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: Do not be faithless, Thomas, but believing the Bible tells us. Thomas,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: of course did it. And he answered and said to
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: Jesus verse twenty eight, my Lord and my God. Jesus
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: said to him, this is here. It is here, it
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: is here. It is the special blessing that Jesus has
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: pronounced for you and for me, Thomas. Because you have
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: seen me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: not seen and yet have.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: Believed. Oh, thank you, Jesus, Thank you Jesus. Do you
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: realize the special blessing that Jesus has pronounced on the
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: church for those who will believe in Him through the
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: preaching of the Gospel, through the preaching of the Word.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: We don't see him.
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: We haven't seen him.
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: Bodily physically, We didn't get to be there.
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's that's that's hey.
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: God has purpose for all of us in our seasons, Amen,
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: in our appointed times and days. That was great difficulty
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: that the apostles went through. Amen. Certainly, after Jesus rose
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: from the dead and sent them out, Amen, nearly all
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: of them Amen, were martyred, died violent deaths, Amen, for
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: the cause of Christ, and suffered greatly. Amen. And and
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: and and again. We were not there. But yet through
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: their testimony, through their eyewitness and faithfulness to Jesus, refusing
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: to be intimidated, Amen, they preached the gospel. They steppedfastly,
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: held to their testimony, that Jesus is alive, that Jesus
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: is the Way, that Jesus is the Resurrection, that Jesus
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: is the hope of glory, that Jesus is the one
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: and only mediator between God and man. Neither is there
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: salvation in any other. There's none of the name among men,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: given among men under heaven, on this earth, in this world,
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: whereby we must be safe. It is by and threw
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: Him along that we must be saved. They cleave to that. Amen,
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: They refuse to be intimidated. That again, keep in mind
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: the eleven After, of course, Judas the betrayer was departed
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: from them. These guys were living in fear and in intimidation.
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: But when they saw the risen save here, Oh, that
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: made all the difference. And then on the day of pentagonst.
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: Jesus told them, he said, don't depart from Jerusalem. Go there,
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: wait for the promise of the of the Father. You're
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: going to be endued with power from on high. Jesus
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: already taught them. Jesus already instructed them. Jesus already prepared
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: them for what they would face ahead. Jesus had already
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: preached and again permitted them. A man appointed them to
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: see all of the miracles, designs, and wonders of his
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: great majesty in his ministry that he performed while he
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: was here on his earth. But now they also needed
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: the dfilling, the end dwelling a man of the Holy Ghost.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: Go to Jerusalem, do not depart, don't leave. I'm going
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: to send the promise of the Father up on you. You're
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: going to be my witnesses in all the earth. This
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: Gospel of the Kingdom must be preached in all the earth,
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: in all of the world, and then the end will come.
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, guess where we are. We are in
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: the last of the last days. But there's a special blessing.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: I believe even more so now, Oh my God, as
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: we approach the end, Amen, all of the times that
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: Jesus spoke of that are being fulfilled. All of the
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: events that he prophesied that would take place is happening.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: It's happening in our world. Amen. But I love the
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: fact that Jesus very clearly pronounced a special blessing for
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: those who will believe in him. He prayed that in
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: his prayer. He said, I don't pray for these alone,
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: but I pray for those who will believe in Me
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: through their preaching, through their testimony, through their proclamation of
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: the Gospel, that they will be one, that they will
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: be united in us, that they will be rock solid
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: in the church. And I believe. Listen, the Church of
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: Jesus Christ. So I said it earlier, The Church of
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, and I'm talking about the true Church, stands
• 23:21
  Speaker 1: to this day because we believe in him. We believe
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: that Jesus is the Christ. Amen. And for those who
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: will believe, for those who have believed, for those who
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: will come to believe. We are the Church. We are
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: made up of those Amen, who were not alive to
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: be eyewitnesses at his first coming, at his first advent.
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: But it is through the preaching of the Gospel that
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: all of the church is built up, that all of
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: the churches establish, and through the word of the Living God,
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: through the promises of God and his amen iron clad
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: grip upon us, we are in his hands. Jesus said,
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: my sheep, hear my voice, are strange that he will
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: not follow. They are in the Father's hand, and no
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: one can pluck them out. We are safe. We are
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: under the shadow of the wings of the Almighty. We
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: have our refuge in Him. Our protection is in Him.
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: And remember also again in this prayer, Jesus pray, I'm
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: not taking them out of the world, but I pray
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: that you will keep them from the evil One, keep
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: them in the hour temptation, the trials, the test, the temptation.
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: There is no temptation that comes upon us that's not
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: coming to man. The Bible says God will always, He
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: always will make a way for us to escape, that
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: we may be able to bear it. And He always
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: causes us to try, and he causes all things to
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: work together for our good. To them who love the Lord,
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: to them who are the called according to his purpose,
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: for those whom he foreknew he predestined to be conformed
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: to the image of his Son, For those who believe,
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: for those who will believe, for those who are the
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: called according to his purpose. Nothing is able to separate
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: us from the love of God. A special blessing. Oh,
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: I love it, I love it. It's a special blessing. Amen
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: that Jesus has imparted to everyone that believes. Amen, through
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: the Gospel, everyone who is now baptized into the body
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: of Christ by the Holy Ghost, sent by Jesus to
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: be in us, to keep us, Amen, to guide us,
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: to lead us into all truth, to guard our hearts
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: and minds. Oh, thank you, thank you, Thank you. His
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: goodness and his mercy. He's commanded both of them to
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: follow us all the days of our lives, our pilgrimage,
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: while we are here in this present world. For those
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: who will believe, they will never be lost. For those
• 26:23
  Speaker 1: who will believe, they will be kept from the evil one,
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: kept from the wickedness. For those who will believe, they
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: will be kept in the world but not become polluted
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: by the world. They will be sanctified by the truth
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: of the Word. For those who will believe count this
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: prayer that Jesus prayed for us counted done. He calls
• 27:01
