0:22 What a mighty God we serve. Angels bow before him. Heaven and earth adore him. What a mighty God we serve. What a mighty God we serve. 0:39 What a mighty God we serve. Angels bow before him. Heaven and earth adore him. What a mighty God we serve. We bring We bring the sacrifice of praise into the house 0:59 of the Lord. We bring the sacrifice of praise into the house of the Lord. And we offer up to you the sacrifices 1:17 of thanksgiving. And we offer up to you the sacrifices of joy. Okay brothers and sisters, you if you can be seated. Be seated. So um 1:35 All of you have this piece of paper, right? With the special song on it, with the theme song on it. Okay. So you'll notice that there's a second song. Yeah? I mean there's the words of a second song called My Father's House. 1:53 Uh so You remember the instrumental we played for you last night? Yeah? How many of you have it on your phones? Like Okay, few of you. Good. You can share it with each other. Yeah, see, in the music industry, they 2:12 have this concept of a bonus track, okay? Like you got your song and one extra song. Uh you remember that verse we read that said, "Be filled with the Holy Spirit, talking to each other in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs." Okay. 2:27 Don't be drunk with wine, but be filled with the Holy Spirit. Yeah. There is, you know, for those who drink alcohol, there is this concept of one for the road. That means you're feeling happy, they've drunk alcohol, but I'm 2:41 going on the road now so that the feeling lasts for some more time. I, you know, have one drink for the road. Uh Brothers and sisters, we do not want to be drunk with wine. We need to be filled with the Holy Spirit. And uh this song is not something that 3:00 uh you you you will find useful in the church when you're in the church, but you'll find it hopefully useful if you remember the tune and you can look at the words and sing the song. It's based on Psalm 27. Psalm 27 says, "The 3:15 Lord is my light and my salvation." And Psalm 27 talks about running, coming to the house of the Lord, and seeking the Lord's face. Um so, we want to sing this song for you. And you have the tune on your phones, you can share it with each other. 3:32 And hopefully this song will help you when you need it. It says I've got to rise up and go to my father's house. I've got to rise up and go, go to my 3:54 father's house. What am I doing here? What am I doing here? I've got a wonderful home, home in the church I found where every debt is cleared. Where every debt is cleared. I've got to 4:13 rise up and go, go to my father's house. What am I doing here? I've got a wonderful home, home in the church I found where every debt is cleared. In the house of my father, 4:32 they'll take me in as I am. They'll bind my wounds and forgive me and give me strength to stand. Okay. That that urge 4:56 that I must go to my father's house. What am I doing here? It says that the prodigal son came to his senses. And he said, "I've I have a father who loves me. And in my father's house I'll find forgiveness and they'll bind 5:11 my wounds and they'll give me the strength to stand. They don't They won't leave me like that. I must run and go to my father's house. I've found I've got a home in the church. And I I have a place where I have love and I have answers. 5:25 And they will care for me and they will love me." Okay. Keep listening. If you feel like you can sing as we finish the song, join in. I've got to rise up and go, go to my father's house. What am I doing here? 5:45 I've got a wonderful home, Home in the church I found, where every day is clear. I want to live in the presence of God every day of my life. To see the beauty of holiness 6:04 and in His love to hide. Knowing army marches against me, my heart shall know no fear. He lifts me up on the rock that is 6:21 Christ. His voice I wait to hear. I've got to rise up and go. Go to my Father's house. What am I doing here? I've got a wonderful home. Home in 6:38 the church I found, where every debt is clear. You want to try that together? Chorus? Okay. I've got to rise up and go. Go to my Father's house. What am I doing here? 6:55 I've got a wonderful home. Home in the church I found, where every debt is clear. Last verse. Be gracious, Lord, and answer me. Your face, oh Lord, I'll see. 7:12 Make it plain what I should do and crush my enemy. I've got to rise up and go. Go to my Father's house. What am I doing here? I've got a wonderful home. 7:31 Home in the church I found, where every debt is clear. Where every debt is clear. Brothers and sisters, Jesus said, "It is finished." 7:48 He paid for all of our debts. And as as we go through life, we feel like we can we are accumulating debts, debts to our fellow members, to our brothers and sisters, or to others, fellow men, and debts to God. But, when we come back 8:05 to the house of God, every debt can be cleared. We can go back to God, confess our sins, he'll forgive us, and he'll also help us to clear our debts, our debts of love. Any any debt that I have, anything that I owe, I might owe an apology, 8:21 uh I might owe money, uh I might owe some deed of kindness to my brothers, and God will help me to clear all of my debts. May God help us to run back to the to the Father's house. Um Brothers and sisters, we've 8:40 This song is is for you for the road. Like, uh we've had we've had a wonderful time, and as we come to this final session, uh may God help us to keep our ears open and our hearts hungry for what the Lord has to speak to us even as we go from 9:00 here. Um Brother Brother Victor, are you going first? Brother Sandeep first, yeah. Um I I actually Brother Sandeep, sorry. I mean, even while you're coming up, don't uh Brother Ravi, I think you had an announcement to make. So, if you want to 9:19 make it, this would be a good time. Yeah. We had a You had given us a lot of really heartfelt questions in the last session, in the heart-to-heart session, which we didn't really get an opportunity for Sandeep Brother Sandeep and brother 9:38 Victor to address. And I know that some of those questions were almost like cries from your heart. So, for those who asked questions like that, we want to give you some homework and take some homework. Okay? So, the homework to you is, you know 9:54 that site that we said cfcindia.com/qa has many, many, many of those answers. Your homework is, if you didn't get an answer for that question, go search there. And you will most probably find an answer. Here's our homework. In that 10:13 small case of where you didn't find that answer, we would also have done it. In 2 months' time, this is what we'll tell we will do. By that means, we take you to the end of this year. By the end of this year, in the Q&A page, you will 10:28 have another section, a part two episode of heart to heart, where you will find the answers for that. So, you didn't find the answer on the on the Q&A page, come by the end of the year to that Q&A site, and you'll find the answer there. 10:43 Right? That is our promise of the homework we'll give back to you. Heart to heart episode two. Thank you. Okay. 11:01 This is the last session. I hope that the Lord has started a new work. And that it's a daily, hourly, moment-by-moment journey with Jesus. That's the most important thing. Um we know so much about what we need to 11:20 do when we fall into sin. We need to get back up. You need to quickly come back to Jesus. You should refuse to listen to your feelings. Easy to say, hard to do, but that's the truth. Um I want to go back to that passage 11:36 that we have been thinking about, Ephesians chapter 5 verse 14, that passage. Ephesians chapter 5 verse 14 is the theme of this conference, wake up, stand up, rise up, Christ will be your light. And 11:58 what it says here in verse 15 onwards, 15 through 17 I want us to just speak on. Therefore, be careful how you walk, not as unwise men, but as wise, making the most of your time because the 12:15 days are evil. So then, do not be foolish, but understand what the will of God is. So I just want to underline a couple of things. You know, you're listening to all the news and you hear all the things in this world that is going on. People are 12:32 talking about wars, people fighting this and that. That means that the days are evil. What should the Christian do if the Christian believes that the days are evil? Let's say that Christians are ridiculed more, or Christians are given less 12:49 rights, or different things like that, or there's more persecution. The days are evil. Like these are getting more and more evil. It's becoming more and more difficult. What should the Christians do? Some Christians in some countries thinks 13:03 that we need to start legislating and start uh advocating or agitating against the government and saying, "Oh, you need to do this." Countries like America think that they need to do that. What should you do? Should you go hide away? 13:18 No, make the most of your time. Can you imagine Paul talking to these to the church in Ephesus saying, "Hey, you know what? I just want to let you know we're starting to hear stories of Christians being fed to the lions. 13:33 The days are evil. So, here's my recommendation to you, Church of Ephesus. Make the most of your time. So, it's a very sobering message. Make the most of your time. And you know, in the first session I talked about it. I did not expect some of you know that I 13:49 I say this every now and then that God has not promised tomorrow to any of us. God has a certain number of days that he's identified and then that's it. And for one of the brothers who was sitting in the youth camp that we were just at 14:06 his time was up a couple of weeks back or maybe a week ago. And go and that was it. That was all the days that God had ordained for him to live. And after after a man a woman's days are over, then what happens? Rest in peace? 14:24 No. What happens after you die? Judgment. Did you know that? Did you know that after you die you're going to have a judgment? Everybody says rest in peace, rest in peace, RIP RIP RIP. No, absolutely not biblical. Most people are not going to rest in 14:43 peace. Sadly. I'm not going to go and tell people that. It's not the right time. But the Bible says there's going to be a judgment. So, for any of us who are sitting here today, once we God says that's the time's up. 15:00 What happens after is not peace. Judgment. And if we have trusted in the Lord then we will have peace and rest and joy and all of that. And if we've been walking with the Lord and taken our lives seriously, there will even be a reward. 15:18 So, that is what is guaranteed for each one of you. I don't know if you're going to make money. I don't know if you're going to get married. I don't know any of those things, but I do know that when God says time's up, time is up. 15:30 I may not make it home to see my family. God may say time's up for you, Sandeep. I saw them this morning on video. We were chatting with them. We don't know when our time is going to be over, but when time is up, there's going to be a judgment. That is 15:48 why Paul was saying, "Look, some of our Chris- your Christian brothers, you church in Ephesus, I they're getting eaten by lions right now. So, we don't know when the days are getting evil. So, we don't know when that's going to 15:59 happen here, too. So, make the most of your time. I was really touched by the message that brother Ratnakumar spoke and how he was able to do such a great book ministry that have touched so many people. And so, he make he's making the most of 16:18 his time. In in much more ways than I am, that's for sure. And so, I'm inspired. I hope you are also inspired to say, "Lord, I want to make the most of my time. What are things that I can do? How can I use my free time if if I'm in 16:31 the doctor's office as I'm saying I'm waiting? Should I be watching all the pro TV's program or listening to the reading the magazines? Or can I get to know a little bit more of your word? Can I send a WhatsApp message to encourage 16:41 somebody? Something. How, Lord, can I make the most of my time to help other people? So, let's make the most of your time. And do you you know what is the only time you need to make the most of? Today. Today. Don't worry about Don't make big 16:58 plans about tomorrow and next week and all of that. Today, make the most of your time. Think about Jesus. Talk to him. Try to see what God is trying to talk listen to you. Try to reach out to some people to encourage them. These are the 17:17 things that we can do in the time that we have. Before we know it, it'll be 5 years, 10 years. These are the changes and inertia that are needed. Changes of the state so that we can get moving forward. My dad used to always say, "It's very hard 17:33 to turn a ship when it's in the harbor." You put it out in the water, then it's easy to ship. So, let's get the ship out of the harbor. Start moving. Start going in some direction. Then you can turn if you're going in the slightly wrong 17:45 direction, you can turn this way, that way. But, family, brothers, sisters, get the ship moving. Right as you're leaving this conference, get the ship moving. Send one WhatsApp message to somebody to encourage them. Try to read the little one or two verses 18:02 of God's word. Maybe some of the notes that you have. Just reread some of those notes today. Make the most of some of your time today. And then little by little, day after day, God will hopefully give you the inertia to make new habits, 18:14 things like that. I also want to see in verse 17 where it says, "Do not be foolish, but understand what the will of God is." So, that's what I want to share with you. God's saying you must understand what the will of God is. 18:31 Now, I read a lot of your questions, not all of your questions are there, okay? But, you know, when my dad has spoken, he has said that there is a one-line autobiography of Jesus' life. Have you heard my dad say that? Okay. Do you know what it is? 18:51 "I have not come to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me." Do you know the reference? You should know it. John 6:38. Family, become a student. Okay, we're going to become students. You're going to remember these important 19:04 verses, so that when you're talking to somebody on the bus, you can ask him, "Hey, what are you doing? What does it mean to be a Christian?" You can maybe tell him this. I don't get to do whatever I want. I get to do what God wants me to do. Really? 19:16 That's in the Bible? Where is in the Bible? Let me show you. In fact, why don't you download the Bible app so that you can read it yourself? Get the Bible on his phone. Get the Bible on her phone before you leave the bus. 19:30 So, different tricks like that to basically say, "Hey, look, you read it in that book now. Now, you can read John 6:39 if you want to." Later on after I get off the bus station. Different things tricks like that you can do. But, you should know 19:41 John 6:38. I have come to do the will of God the Father who sent me, not my own will. That's pretty much what Jesus did all of his life. So, knowing the will of God is very important. So, I'm not here to tell you I know all 19:55 of God's will, but I want to give you a very um simple way to know the will of God. Okay? And I'm hopefully going to do it in a little bit of a fun way so that you can 20:12 remember it. Here's the will of God. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18. Here's the will of God. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18. This is God's will. I want to know what God's will is. I want to know what God's will is. What is this God's will? What is God's will? 20:32 There's so many parts to that answer. But, I want to give you from God's word what is God's will. It applies for every situation. You know what? This is so simple 20:57 that you can probably even memorize it before I'm done with this meeting. This is how simple God's will is. 1 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, which is rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks. What is that? Nine words? 21:15 Nine words. And what does it say after that? For this is God's will for you. Who's you? Thessalonians? You. When I say, "Hey, you, look at me." 21:35 Who's looking at me? You. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18. For you. Of course, the the Paul is telling me you, too. For you. Three, rejoice always. Pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks. Nine words, God's will. Done. 21:54 Finished. You happy? No, you're not happy. No, no, no, I want to know what is God's will concerning my marriage. That's what you want to know. What is God's will concerning my job? See, you know what we want to do? We God 22:08 tells me very clearly what his will is, then I want additional, please, uh, extra question. One extra question I want to ask you. Why don't you do what he told you God's will is first, then ask the follow-on questions? So, before you say, "No, no, no, I want 22:24 to know God's will for marriage." Let me ask you this. Are you doing God's will in the clear way what he's told you to do? Then God will give you clarity about specifics, which job to take, which marriage to take, what future to have. 22:43 This is the principle that I use to to understand scripture is obey God in the way he's clear in in in the Bible. Some things are not clear. Who to get married to, what job to take. These are not God completely clear. But, in the areas that that not clear, 23:00 the way to solve the problem is first solve the problem for the things that are clear. So, say God, I don't know what your will is for marriage. I don't know what your will is for um for your the job. I don't know that that's a very specific thing, but what 23:16 I'm going to do it is you told me what your will is, I'm going to focus on that. And as I do that, you'll show me what it is. Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks. So, I want to ask you a question here. 23:28 How many of you here know how to code? Raise your hands if you know how to code. That means write computer coding. How many? Okay. Some people are more confident than others. Some are like this. Not sure. Someone like, yep, I know the 23:45 code. I can code. Okay, I'm going to teach you all how to code. Okay, so what is what we're going to code? We're going to code this thing. Should I have a mic, maybe? I don't know which mic this is. 24:07 It was on the mic stand here, I think, maybe. Okay. Another word for coding is to write something that can run automatically, okay? So, we're going to write a code. And so, I'm going to write this is and you know what you call it what you code 24:23 is let's call it a program, okay? It's that's what the I guys call it. So, hopefully you'll allow me to say here's the program we're going to write. Here's the program we're going to code. Which is God's will. So, we're 24:40 Okay? Now, you execute this program, it'll work. Right? It's like saying I'm going to write a code, I'm going to write a program that if you tell me the date and the month and the year that you were born, this code this program will run and tell you 24:56 this is how old you are. Right? Very simple, right? So, this is a program that if you execute on it, you'll do God's will. Okay? So, very simple, right? It's not very complicated. You can probably also write the program for me. Even you guys don't 25:12 know how to code, you should know how to write this code. So, what is it do to know to do God's will from 1 Thessalonians 6:18? So, coders, what is good coding practice? Hold on, the coders. Good coding practice? Put some 25:25 comments in here. Comment. I don't know if this is the right coding language syntax for comment. It says 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18. That means here's where I got it from. This is the person who gave me the code. Okay? This is where the reference is. 25:41 Okay, so this is the code. So, I'll put it in parentheses or something. Ignore the coding if it's not your language. Okay. Program is God's will. Here's where you're getting it from. Now, we're going to write write the code. What is 25:52 it to do God's will? Number one. Right? Okay. What else? 26:11 I'm going to wipe this off just to make some space. Okay. What's the next one? Pray. Rejoicing always, praying always. 26:33 What's the third one? Thanking God always. Okay. Now, I'm going to give you a little trick about coding. 26:50 See, when it says always, right? The code doesn't understand always. It understands rejoice, but how do I get the code to do it all the time? I'll write something that says repeat. Okay? 27:07 R P T Repeat. How often should I repeat this? Always, right? So, I'm going to write here uh until How much should you repeat this until? What? 27:29 Until what? Until Christ returns. Okay. Anything else? Until you die, until you Okay, so how about I write this? Until my underscore location equals heaven. Okay. 27:50 Repeat until my location is heaven. So, if despite all our best efforts you end up in hell God forbid. Somebody watching on the video, not anybody here. One of you guys on the watching on the live stream end up in hell, please. 28:05 This is the program to execute. Okay. Until my location equals heaven. You Tell me this. For non-coders, do you understand this? Repeat until my location is in heaven. RPT So, I'm giving you a very simple formula 28:25 called RPT, which is God's will. How often should you do RPT? What's your location right now? Earth. Is it equal to heaven? So, should you execute this program? This is this pro What's the name of the 28:44 program? What's the name of the program? God's will. Executing RPT Executing God's will means RPT. So, you want to know God's will? What is it? RPT. You want to know God's will? What is it? So, next time somebody comes and asks 29:03 you, "Hey, brother, I want to know what God's will is." What will you say? You'll say, "I got some code. I got this little program I can execute. Just install it and run it." RPT all the time. Brothers, I'll tell you this. I don't 29:20 I'm saying this somewhat lightly. Obviously, you know, this is this is somewhat lightly, but I will tell you this. If you will just execute this code all the time, at any time of day, any time of night, if you will just execute this 29:31 code, if you will run this at any time of any situation, you can probably not worry about almost anything else that's in the Bible. Just these three things will be doing God's will in the most important things. Which means, I'm in this situation, my 29:50 boss is shouting at me. Rejoice always, pray always, thanking God always. For your boss, yes. Rejoicing for your boss, yes. I'm 35 years old and I'm still not married. I'm feeling very lonely. I want to do God's will. 30:08 RPT. So, repeat RPT RPT. You see what I'm saying? Repeat the RPT program until your location turns to heaven. I believe to the extent that God has given me light in these areas, I believe that if you do this just the simple program, 30:28 execute this on the train on your way back, execute this on your drive back when you're driving and people are irritating you. Is it a sin to do this? Is it a sin to do that? Don't worry about that. Just execute the program 30:39 RPT. Any situation you want I whatever situation is whatever question you asked in the in the question that gotten gotten gotten answered. I may not know the answer to the question. Even if we try to answer the question, we may not have answered the 30:54 question. But I will tell you what God's will is. RPT. And it's so easy to remember because RPT stands for repeat. So keep repeating RPT. And this is a very simple way from God's word. Cuz he's very clearly said here, this is 31:12 God's will for you. What does it say in 1 Thessalonians chapter sorry in in 1 Thessalonians Ephesians chapter 5 verse 17 Do not be foolish, but understand what the will of 31:31 the Lord is. Make the most of your time means until my location equals heaven. Until your location becomes heaven, that's a little bit of time. After that, don't worry about it. You're all set for life for eternity. But until my location equals heaven 31:49 RPT. Very simple. Keep repeating that. Lord, I want to rejoice in every situation. Not rejoicing because my father died or my mother died or my some friend got cancer. No, rejoicing in the Lord because he died for me and he's taken 32:08 away all the sin. Rejoice in the Lord. Praying to my father. I don't have some distant God. My father is in heaven. My brother my eldest brother is my advocate. He's my lawyer. I can pray always. The Holy Spirit is within me groaning 32:24 within me. I can pray always. I can tell him about anything. No no such thing as a lonely Christian. Cuz Jesus is with me. Praying always telling him anything I that is going wrong with me. And giving thanks. We heard in the 32:38 conference about the one leper who came back to give thanks. And God said, "That attitude to give thanks is what saved you." Think about what you've been given because you're a part of a church like this where you've got good 32:54 solid teaching where everybody doesn't get a cent doesn't get a paisa out of you. All they're trying to do is give you the best they understand on how to follow God. And they give of their time. They're spending all their free time. 33:06 Brother Victor has retired now and he's spending all of his time trying to help people. Is he getting any money out of it? No. But he's doing giving that freely cuz that's what's worked in his life. That's how the Lord has brought 33:18 revelation in his life. And so there's so much to be thankful for. So many things. I know you have problems. I know there can be many difficulties in our life. It's going to get worse because the days are evil. I understand that. 33:31 So don't start complaining. No, that's that's what the world does. Philippians 2, right? My dad showed you in that passage there. The world they murmur and they complain and it's darkness. But we will be like bright lights because we don't murmur 33:46 and complain that we um are thankful. So I'm going to ask Brother Victor to come up and please uh share what is on his heart and then you can close. I'm the Brother let it be. 34:45 Write a short notes on RPT. I'll there. Um Two marks question. 35:04 It's It's a two mark question. Write a short note on RPT. I know you're all IT students. I know that you may I know you're all Most of you are IT students and you can write program for 35:23 this. I don't know computer. But I was listening to it carefully. Uh define RPT. If you had to ask me define RPT Two marks question. It's a two mark question. 280 35:50 All 280 of you will get two marks for this question for sure. That is theory. That's the theory. As a teacher I have got to know that As a teacher Um Mathematics but in the physics and something that I have done and I I I teach physics as well along with 36:09 mathematics. Actually physics is my major. Um Uh math is just an allied subject for me. So you have so many two mark questions 36:28 in the subject that we study. Uh what is the use of screw gauge? Screw gauge. What What is the use of screw gauge? Two marks question. It's a two mark question. To measure the width. Width of a thin wire, no? Yeah. It is to measure the width of the 36:47 thin wire. Correct answer. Everyone will get two marks for it. Yeah, all. All of them. So, as soon as they get the question paper, "Oh, I know this." They will write it and get two marks. Two marks. 37:05 To measure the width of the thin wire. Okay, two marks. To measure the width of the thin wire, you get two marks for it. No. Lab. We have to go for a lab practical mark. So, we have to go to the lab for practicals. So, we have to take the students to the 37:24 lab for practical exam. 25 marks. So, there you have a 25 mark question.
