- 0:58Host, Vicki L. Thompson: We're coming to you live this morning on a beautiful m Sunday Saturday morning.
- 1:06Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And I hope you Have sat down and just get relaxed as we Have a little chat.
- 1:17Host, Vicki L. Thompson: As God says it's time to sit down.
- 1:21Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And let's Talk, a little bit, my friends, and this is for those of us, not only who are little settled in ourselves, those who look forward to hearing a good conversation about the greatness of our God.
- 1:44Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Those of us who are still a little high, searching in the spiritual realms, thinking that there is their harmony there, and there's nothing else.
- 1:59Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And that is the place that we want to get to, and there's no nothing else to end the journey.
- 2:09Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But serenity, man.
- 2:11Host, Vicki L. Thompson: I'm here to say that that's not the truth.
- 2:15Host, Vicki L. Thompson: What about you?
- 2:17Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Sit down and look around.
- 2:20Host, Vicki L. Thompson: There's still blue skies.
- 2:23Host, Vicki L. Thompson: In spite of the fact that it rains, there are thunderous thorns storms every once in a while.
- 2:32Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But my friends, let's look around and look up and see the blue sky God has given us.
- 2:40Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Let's look around and see our neighbors occasionally.
- 2:46Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Let's look down and look around and see those who are connected to us.
- 2:53Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And then let God open our eyes to see the real of reality, man.
- 3:01Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Because there are many, if you allow them, to take you off course, my friends.
- 3:12Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Way off in their beliefs of what this life is.
- 3:21Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And their end result of this life is the grave.
- 3:27Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And then that's where it ends.
- 3:29Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Well, my friends, I'm telling you, that is not the truth.
- 3:34Host, Vicki L. Thompson: No matter how we want to take our own way, or sometimes be led astray.
- 3:43Host, Vicki L. Thompson: The grave is nothing, my friends.
- 3:48Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So our live Talk, begins with some questions.
- 3:53Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Have you ever walked around and realized that you're in for some reason it's like Rip Van Winkle?
- 4:07Host, Vicki L. Thompson: A little story.
- 4:09Host, Vicki L. Thompson: For young kids.
- 4:14Host, Vicki L. Thompson: It scared me, as a matter of fact, because he went up in the mountains and fell asleep, and when he came back, there were many things that had changed in the world.
- 4:25Host, Vicki L. Thompson: He was out of place, because, he decided for some reason, we Have no way of knowing in that fairy tale.
- 4:33Host, Vicki L. Thompson: I know, that it connected me to a prayer that I did not want to fall asleep, unless God was involved in it, and that he indeed would wake me up come the next morning.
- 4:47Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Not 20 years later, my friends, when we find that we're out of place and lost our way and don't know how to live therein.
- 4:57Host, Vicki L. Thompson: As a matter of fact, our friend Dr.
- 5:00Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Martin Luther King had a very, very interesting sermon that talked about our consciousness and our conscience.
- 5:13Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And it was very, very poignant and candid.
- 5:18Host, Vicki L. Thompson: As a matter of fact, his particular servant uh sermon, he was raised and spoke from a pedestal and an Episcopalian Cathedral .
- 5:32Host, Vicki L. Thompson: I hope you get to be blessed as I was blessed sitting down, and all of a sudden it came around.
- 5:38Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But he talked of Rip Van Winkle, when he went up.
- 5:40Host, Vicki L. Thompson: There was there uh a century in which there was uh Colonies, and the United States was still pretty much so a British territory.
- 5:53Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And when he came back, the United States was the United States.
- 5:59Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And when he went up, it it played allegiance to the king, and when he came down, it played allegiance to the United States and its flag.
- 6:12Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And he couldn't make sense of it all.
- 6:18Speaker: Let you search for that sermon in the archives.
- 6:27Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And let God minister to you on that because it's very timely, friends.
- 6:35Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And if God wants us to share a little bit more about that, because now we are thinking What is this Talk, all about this morning?
- 6:47Host, Vicki L. Thompson: The Talk, is about being Lost in Lostness.
- 6:55Host, Vicki L. Thompson: To answer the question, where or what is the Kingdom of God?
- 7:00Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And this question, which we're gonna pose, Have you ever walking around and find that for some reason, you know, uh some thing was missing?
- 7:15Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Oh, you just woke up and find that you're out of place, like Rip Van Winkle.
- 7:25Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Or Have you ever heard someone say when they've lost, when a loved a loved one has passed?
- 7:34Host, Vicki L. Thompson: They said, We just lost our dear mother, father, friend.
- 7:43Host, Vicki L. Thompson: They used the term lost as though there was that end of something, or something was not gained, or something was not found.
- 7:56Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And this is why it's trying for us to sit down to stop that lostness when it comes to the passing on of loved ones, especially when they are Have already answered the call of the Lord.
- 8:13Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And the promise of, into everlasting life. In Heaven.
- 8:16Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Do you or recall that television show.
- 8:23Host, Vicki L. Thompson: I'm sure a lot of us do, and it may be on one of those um streaming downloads, demand type of platforms, where you can look up and watch, or even binge on the television show that called it's called “Lost in Space.” I don't know about you, but I was a little kid, and I have to say, in their lostness of trying to find the way back, and being lost in space, they had many interesting adventures in their lostness, and in every end of the show, there was pretty much so, a resolve of some kind of mess, they found themselves in.
- 9:18Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But I don't recall ever seeing the end of that television show when I believe that they're still up there somewhere, lost in their lostness, which they called space.
- 9:32Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And I Have to say to you, as you and God uh leads us in our Talk, this morning.
- 9:40Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Have you ever?, Because it does happen every once in a while in bad weather, when our “GPS” for some reason we're just going along and listening to that voice say, okay, “in approximately three quarters of a mile, turn right.
- 10:01Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And you turn right, and something says, oh, and you keep driving and driving and it seems that wow, I'm going the wrong way.”
- 10:19Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Have you ever relied upon our “GPS,” a credible source for guidance and directions, isn't it?
- 10:32Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Yet, occasionally, in real bad weather, man, that “GPS” can get you in a place where you are completely lost.
- 10:45Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And either you wait until “GPS” decides to get its act right, or you decide, hey man, let me look around and either call or let me call the other end and get some directions, the right directions, from those who know the way, that I’m meeting at my appointment or my destination, who actually knows the correct way.
- 11:19Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That's why, my friends, we Have this chat today.
- 11:23Host, Vicki L. Thompson: A chat that connects all of it and our thinking, and it kind of picked up all of us, didn't it?
- 11:33Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Some who occasionally look and find these adventures and think that at the end of the day there's resolve.
- 11:41Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Or we seek out some credible source that when it ends up, it's not as credible as we think.
- 11:50Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Or we go a wrong life, God forbid, and believe that this life ends with the grave.
- 12:01Host, Vicki L. Thompson: When That physical body shuts down.
- 12:08Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Oh my friends, neither one of them, or either choice, is not for good choice, nor the correct choice.
- 12:20Host, Vicki L. Thompson: The choice is to continue on, friends, because the way, and this answers this question: where is the kingdom of God, or what is the kingdom of God?
- 12:36Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And I want to make it clear as we Have an episode that speaks of the doctrines of understanding, our little chat for those who Have been around a long time or just figuring out.
- 12:54Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Man, I've been going this way a long time, and I've I'm tired.
- 13:00Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Gone this way a long time and skated and you know, maneuvered my way.
- 13:07Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Day in and day out, whatever it is, we can maneuver away in jobs and in our busyness.
- 13:14Host, Vicki L. Thompson: As a matter of fact, Dr.
- 13:16Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Martin Luther King , Jr.
- 13:17Host, Vicki L. Thompson: and his book of um “Where Do We Go From Here?” One of the things one of uh the early chapters mentions that we get devices and add devices to make our lives simpler or make our lives easier.
- 13:36Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But we find in these devices we add more devices, and in the devices we get more things to do.
- 13:49Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So when trying to get to a place of rest and leisurely, we find that in our devices of getting there, we add more devices, and it just heaps up on our burdens, and we Have yet to find the rest, yeah.
- 14:12Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So we get more busier, even though we believe that the devices Have made our lives more simpler, and when we get to the new age, what we ended up doing was buying storages for all the devices and gadgets that we've collected along the way and found ether technologies changing them, and many times we just didn't use them, we just bought them.
- 14:41Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Because it was a nice thing to do.
- 14:45Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So we Have storage all over the place of devices that were supposed to help make our lives easier.
- 14:54Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Now we Have to worry about making payments on storage or where getting another storage box and finding a place in our homes, in our garages and our backyards to store more stuff.
- 15:11Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That's in essence.
- 15:12Host, Vicki L. Thompson: It's the rhetorical question in the spirit of Martin Luther King, Dr.
- 15:22Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Martin Luther King, whose last handwritten book asks us today, “Where do we go from here?” It is very timely, and it actually is also the premise of our talks today, and a couple of others is that in our transitioning in the place of God um showing us , “ The way from then, when then was, to there, wherever there is.” That's called a transition! And with God and in the kingdom, we know the end place, but not necessarily the places in the beginning.
- 16:18Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So in our lostness, is being lost in our lostness, friends, let's start with a beginning.
- 16:29Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Because the end, my friends, is not necessarily heaven, the end actually begins life, and that's Jesus Christ.
- 16:44Host, Vicki L. Thompson: It is perhaps one where many are very perplexed at that mystery.
- 16:52Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But the end of this life is the beginning of a new life in Jesus Christ, and the ending, therefore, is not an ending at all.
- 17:06Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Because there within is eternal life, a life that has no endings, my friend.
- 17:15Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But let's begin at the beginning.
- 17:19Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Genesis, and we're not gonna go with many Scriptures or um, but it is premised our talks, of course, because as we're listening to the voice of God and the words being spoken by me, listening and the voice of God speaks in many ways.
- 17:48Host, Vicki L. Thompson: We're listening, and God says in the beginning, Adam was nicely doing some very good things, and God says it was good.
- 18:01Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Gave him a helpment.
- 18:03Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So he was going along day in and day out, but then old man, here comes the tempter.
- 18:11Host, Vicki L. Thompson: We may Have some bad days and decide to go the wrong way on bad days, and when we all decide to go on our own, and there are many scenarios in life that may take us off the course, and we become lost.
- 18:29Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Okay, so Adam heard God calling for him, and in his lostness he begins to hide.
- 18:41Host, Vicki L. Thompson: When the voice of God, and we talked in our last Talk, about the voice of God, that is no sound, but interestingly, it walked in the garden.
- 18:57Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Man, that is an imagery for us to grasp and take hold.
- 19:06Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So that means that voice that is ‘still with no intonation ’ is full of power and authority.
- 19:16Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And then cried out, because in Adam's lostness, he didn't know he was lost.
- 19:23Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But he found himself naked, my friends, and that means he had taken on the nature of the adversary of his soul, and found himself unclothed by the God who would visit him in the garden in the cool of the evening every day.
- 19:50Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That is the relationship, not a religion, though there are things God called us to do.
- 19:57Host, Vicki L. Thompson: When we answer his call, it is entering into the relationship with the one and true living God, the invisible God, who shows even though our minds, if we try to use our minds to define God, you will not be able to.
- 20:19Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So it's fruitless to make that attempt.
- 20:23Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But it's very powerful, knowledgeable, and very intelligent to believe that God is, and thus so it is so.
- 20:35Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And that God that is created all things and it is so.
- 20:41Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And that God that is, has called everyone, and it is so.
- 20:48Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And that God made a means when he called everyone, for our scorner friends are scorner friends.
- 20:58Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Those that are in synchronism that think that their philosophies and thinking that God loves everyone , so he can't kill nobody in punishment.
- 21:13Speaker: When their decision is death, anyway.
- 21:19Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Because God has offered life, a life that has no ending, and it truly begins in Jesus Christ.
- 21:29Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So, what is it that we're doing now outside of Jesus Christ?
- 21:33Host, Vicki L. Thompson: We're lost in lostness, everyone.
- 21:37Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That's what this Talk, is.
- 21:39Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Okay, so if I am going to this place and it does not accept Jesus, it is like the navigator and the GPS, everyone.
- 21:53Host, Vicki L. Thompson: It's like the GPS.
- 21:57Speaker: Seems like a credible source.
- 22:02Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But in bad weather, when things get shaken up, realize, oh man, this thing took me the wrong way.
- 22:12Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Adam's choices, the choice of yielding to temptation, which is another voice taking us the wrong way.
- 22:25Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Just a little drink, just a little entertainment is, or just a little satisfying of curiosity, or just to be with my friends.
- 22:34Host, Vicki L. Thompson: I'm gonna go this way.
- 22:36Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Before we know it, we are entangled so deep.
- 22:40Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Can't find our way back.
- 22:42Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But you know what?
- 22:45unknown: God.
- 22:46Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And this is who is sitting with us.
- 22:49Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But God never gives up, my friend.
- 22:55Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So he looks for Adam.
- 23:00Host, Vicki L. Thompson: We don't know how long it was, but there was silence in between.
- 23:04Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Every little end there was silence between God speaking to his messengers and appearing in Pimphanes.
- 23:14Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Um our term is Epiphanes, which means encounters with God or encounters with some spirit.
- 23:22Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Well, and biblically, it's with God or His messengers, the angels, etc.
- 23:28Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Um, and God chose and clothed Adam, and temporary right with him.
- 23:38Host, Vicki L. Thompson: God clothed Adam.
- 23:40Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That's temporary clothing in God's righteousness, but it was of animal skin, and it was temporary.
- 23:51Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So between the time that he sinned was cast out, was cast out of the garden, or separated from God, God comes in, clothes him, let him know.
- 24:10Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Now God knew how he was cast out.
- 24:13Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So the questions in the Bible, just like some of our questions, that that don't necessarily appear they tie up to the Talk,, but they do, my friends.
- 24:23Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That question, if you look at the Talk, and the question, lots and lots of where's the kingdom, what is the kingdom, etc.
- 24:33Host, Vicki L. Thompson: God asked Adam, who told you you were next.
- 24:38Host, Vicki L. Thompson: God is all knowing, everyone, as we know.
- 24:45Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That is his sense of humor, but it was really forever Adam rhetorical to think about man.
- 24:52Host, Vicki L. Thompson: You're you're in you got yourself in a state, but I'm here.
- 24:56Host, Vicki L. Thompson: I'm here, God tells the woman and judgment that they will.
- 25:03Host, Vicki L. Thompson: First, they're cast out because God mercy, great mercy would not keep them in the state that they're in, my friends.
- 25:14Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So lost in lostness is waking up and hearing God call you, and you think you're incorporate making billions of dollars, Have jets and yachts, and lost in lostness with all of that similarly wealth.
- 25:34Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Or I'm in Alaska on my own.
- 25:39Host, Vicki L. Thompson: I just live in the nature and connect with God.
- 25:42Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That's how I'm gonna do.
- 25:43Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Look at the sky and the moon.
- 25:46Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Lost in our isolation and lostness without God.
- 25:52Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Oh, that I just know there's just too many religions, and God just can't choose one.
- 26:00Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So I'm just gonna forget about the whole thing and die at the end of it.
- 26:07Host, Vicki L. Thompson: At the end of it, I'm in the grave and I Have finished it all.
- 26:13Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That's the end of everything.
- 26:15Host, Vicki L. Thompson: No, no, and no, everyone.
- 26:18Host, Vicki L. Thompson: God still calls - out Adam, like he did with Adam to each one of us, you all.
- 26:27Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So in that beginning, God put temporary clothing in his lostness.
- 26:35Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And from that beginning, from that place of lostness, which is a special a special place, meaning that it is like um it is um a sphere, a spherical place.
- 26:55Host, Vicki L. Thompson: A spherical, which is a place, which is a spherical, which we would call a place because it contains things in this spherical atmosphere, like the earth.
- 27:10Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Like the earth, a spherical, it contains thoughts, but it also can contain bodies in the spiritual place of lostness.
- 27:25Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Someone has to tell you, or you Have to wake up and find, man, I'm lost.
- 27:35Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Someone has to tell you, and today our ears can't quite identify the voice that's saying, You're lost in your lostness.
- 27:49Host, Vicki L. Thompson: You're in lostness.
- 27:54Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Let me find the way.
- 27:56Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Like those happy people on television, lost in space, that laughed and had little encounters that of difficulties and ended up getting together and it's happy in the end.
- 28:08Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Well, they were still lost in space because there was another episode that said they were.
- 28:15Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And this, God is saying to everyone that's listening, whether you again are in Zambia, Korea, United States, France, Holland, God is saying lost in lostness.
- 28:40Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And my friends, death is not the end.
- 28:45Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Death is the stopping of the physical body.
- 28:50Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But the end is the resolution of our souls, and God made a way for the resolution of our souls.
- 29:03Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And guess what?
- 29:05Host, Vicki L. Thompson: The enemy that may Have attrapped us in really dark places, God still goes there.
- 29:12Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But or we're in the niceties of following anything that does not say Jesus Christ does not say the Holy Spirit, God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit.
- 29:33Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Maybe a supposedly reliable GPS.
- 29:41Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But when bad weather comes, perhaps we realize somehow it led me to the wrong place, you all.
- 29:54Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That is our Talk, this morning, everyone.
- 29:59Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Lost in lostness, and guess what?
- 30:02Host, Vicki L. Thompson: God says, if you've heard him, if he's come and touched your body, delivered you in your lostness, the kingdom of God has come upon you.
- 30:19Host, Vicki L. Thompson: God said, Jesus said, when he came, and there was silence three hundred years ago, between the time of the last prophet to the time when Moses came and Jesus confirmed of his entering into the earth, not Moses, but John the Baptist came and baptized, showed them the way of the Lord.
- 30:49Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Then Jesus comes and says the same thing.
- 30:53Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Repent, because the kingdom of God is at hand.
- 30:57Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And then Jesus' ministry says that if you Have seen his miracles, if you Have seen by the power of the authority of the voice of Jesus, say, Come out from him.
- 31:21Speaker: Loose.
- 31:22Speaker: Be healed!
- 31:27Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And you've witnessed deliverance of some kind of possession.
- 31:35Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Witness ed miracles of family members healing.
- 31:40Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Deliverance of wayward lives.
- 31:42Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That's the kingdom of God! And it does not begin only when we get to heaven, you all.
- 31:52Host, Vicki L. Thompson: The misnomer that Jesus, just gets us to heaven is contrary to the Truth that He has come, that we Have life here on earth.
- 32:02Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And that is the dependence solely on the providence of the one and true loving living God.
- 32:14Host, Vicki L. Thompson: For it says, if you want an abundant life and make sense of it all, even though God will show us and take us through a lot of craziness that exists.
- 32:27Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But to get to the other side, we gotta go that way, just like the Israelites in the wilderness going through thirsty, man, and was all around.
- 32:38Host, Vicki L. Thompson: There was nothing but bitter waters.
- 32:40Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But yet they had to rely upon God taking them through.
- 32:44Host, Vicki L. Thompson: So I see all that ugliness, man.
- 32:47Host, Vicki L. Thompson: To get to the other side.
- 32:49Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And when you get to the other side, God has so many more blessings.
- 32:54Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And that's the kingdom of God.
- 32:57Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That's where the kingdom is, man.
- 33:00Host, Vicki L. Thompson: It is when we enter into that new life with Jesus and God opened doors that we cannot see.
- 33:07Host, Vicki L. Thompson: We believe in the and we begin to, he begins to show himself, and we know that it's God.
- 33:15Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And then we begin to rely and trust and call on his almightiness to intervene, to heal, deliver, set free, to help our brothers and sisters, to help the world to use us to do so.
- 33:31Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And then that kingdom begins showing in us, man.
- 33:36Host, Vicki L. Thompson: When we can walk around like Paul and just simply from touches of his napkin, people are healed.
- 33:45Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And that was not just for 2,500 years ago, you all, that is for today as well.
- 33:51Host, Vicki L. Thompson: When you can say, Be healed, somebody in hear it, and the voice of God touches whatever that ailment and healing.
- 34:01Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Behold, there is the help of restored restoration for disease and wholeness.
- 34:13Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That is the kingdom all you all.
- 34:16Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And that is being who we are.
- 34:21Host, Vicki L. Thompson: We are a child or children of the Most High God.
- 34:26Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And sometimes we don't realize in our stepping out and reliance on a credible source that we stop calling on this God.
- 34:41Host, Vicki L. Thompson: We're just going through the motion.
- 34:43Host, Vicki L. Thompson: We just expect and then just turn our heads when it's not.
- 34:48Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Doesn't appear that it occurred instead of persevering unceasingly in prayer until it occurs you all.
- 34:59Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Like Martin Luther King says, where we go, there's much man, much lost in that lostness, much who've accepted that uh little left turn or right turn that says, the left turn that says, Oh, when you die, when uh when you're dead, man, that ends it all, no man, every soul will see the second coming of the Lord.
- 35:29Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Everyone, whether you're still alive here on earth, my friends, or supposedly in that dirt, everybody will see it.
- 35:45Speaker: Everybody will see it.
- 35:49Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And my friends, every soul belongs to God, and guess what?
- 35:56Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Even when Adam sinned greatly, and the whole humanity was cast out into the world that they're not that was not for them.
- 36:14Host, Vicki L. Thompson: He cries out, Adam, my friend.
- 36:21Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Calls out your name.
- 36:23Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And he says, Adam.
- 36:27Speaker: Adam!
- 36:30unknown: Adam!
- 36:32Speaker: Where art thou?
- 36:34Speaker: Where thou art thou?
- 36:40Speaker: Guess what?
- 36:41Speaker: God's voice has found you there.
- 36:44Speaker: He already know that you are there.
- 36:48Host, Vicki L. Thompson: It is for you and I, my friends, to recognize.
- 36:53Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Hey, we're lost in our lostness.
- 36:58Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And it is God who's waking us up to say, for us to realize.
- 37:05Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That was a rhetorical question.
- 37:10Host, Vicki L. Thompson: It was for Adam to realize.
- 37:12Host, Vicki L. Thompson: It is for us to realize our lost in lostness.
- 37:17Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That's why.
- 37:18Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Our Talk,, regardless, is to shake us up a little bit.
- 37:25Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Especially for those if you haven't realized it.
- 37:29Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That Have taken that middle stance of the niceties.
- 37:36Host, Vicki L. Thompson: To say, man, if it's not Jesus Christ, if it's not that it's Jesus Christ the way, the only way.
- 37:48Speaker: Yeah.
- 37:54Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Then my friends, that is that then that is not a credible source that we perhaps believe that it is, regardless of how high that we go in a temple or a mosque or any other place.
- 38:08Host, Vicki L. Thompson: If it doesn't say Jesus Christ, then you still are who you are when you accept the Lord, but now you've become identified as a child of the most high God, and life, true life, begins and it has no end, everybody.
- 38:28Host, Vicki L. Thompson: It has no end, it does not end at death in the grave.
- 38:33Host, Vicki L. Thompson: It does not end there, my friends, because every soul has yet to be reconciled with God, if it has not at that time, so whatever cycle of life you are in, my friend, it is Jesus Christ.
- 38:56Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And if you hear that voice, man, and here God speaks a lot of ways, and if Adam heard God's voice walking, his voice walked in the garden.
- 39:16Host, Vicki L. Thompson: That means God is coming after.
- 39:18Host, Vicki L. Thompson: God is searching and reaching out for you, coming to you, letting you know.
- 39:28Host, Vicki L. Thompson: In the lostness, God goes there as well to wake you up and so you can realize, Adam, where are you?
- 39:38Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Okay, Joe, Susie, Michaela, Naisha, James, Tom, Sonia, where art thou?
- 39:52Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Where art thou?
- 39:56Speaker: Tonya, where art thou?
- 39:59Speaker: Mrs.
- 40:03Speaker: Elizabeth, where art thou?
- 40:06Speaker: God is calling for you.
- 40:15Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And it's all time for each one of us to say yes, Father God.
- 40:23Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Because lost in lostness does not end in death.
- 40:30Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And matter of fact, does my prayer pray with me?
- 40:34Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Whenever our loved ones that Have accepted Christ, we don't use that term anymore.
- 40:40Host, Vicki L. Thompson: They just gone home to glory with God, you all.
- 40:44Host, Vicki L. Thompson: God's called them home, that body home, until it's time for us to reconcile, uh, to gather together.
- 40:52Host, Vicki L. Thompson: But they're not lost when we Have actually accepted.
- 40:57Host, Vicki L. Thompson: And of course, Amazing Grace Song says, When I was lost, but now I'm found.
- 41:06Host, Vicki L. Thompson: I'm found.
- 41:07Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Do you get that?
- 41:09Host, Vicki L. Thompson: I'm found.
- 41:11Host, Vicki L. Thompson: I'm connected back to my God the Father, the creator of all things, the Supreme Almighty, invisible, one and true, living God.
- 41:29Host, Vicki L. Thompson: Until the next time, my friends, when God says it's time for us to sit down and chat, we'll pray many blessings, my friend.
- 41:42Speaker: Wherever you are, many blessings.
- 41:45Speaker: And answer that call you all.
- 41:48Speaker: Until then, be blessed, my friends.
- 41:54Speaker: This is Vicki.
