0:00 I mentioned that there is so much written about the Apostle Paul and his ministry in the New Testament because God has given him as an example 0:30 of how a true servant of God should be. Of course, the perfect example is Jesus Christ himself. In Isaiah chapter 42, there is a prophecy concerning Jesus Christ. 1:00 The first words are, Behold my servant. In English, that means, Look closely and carefully at my servant. See how I delight in him. I have put my spirit on him. He will not, you know, cry out in anger and all. Verse 2. 1:38 His voice will not be heard in the street. There are many believers, when they speak in the house in anger, the voice can be heard in the street. But not with Jesus. When he speaks inside the house, his voice will not be heard outside. And a bruised reed he will not break and a dimly burning brick he will not extinguish. 2:16 Look carefully at my servant. And Jesus said, Follow me. But some people say, Oh, that is too high a standard. We cannot follow him. So, to help them, God has given another example. 2:42 Paul says in 1 Corinthians 11, verse 1. You follow me then, just like I follow Christ. I told you in the Old Testament, the only said, Listen to me. But in the New Testament, Southern will say, Follow me. 3:13 Now, some people think that is pride to say, Follow me. It's not pride. It is obedience to scripture. Paul said in Philippians 3. 3:35 Second time, he says the same thing. Philippians 3, 17. I told you, I will give you a new Bible. Because you did not read these verses carefully. 3:59 3, 17. Brothers, join in following my example. And not only me, but look at other people who are following the same pattern I walk. 4:23 Observe, look carefully at those people also. So, who must me look at? Jesus is in heaven. When he was on the earth. He said, I am the light of the world. 4:44 John 9, verse 4, he said. As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. John 9, verse 5. 5:07 John 9, verse 5. But now he has gone to heaven. Who is the light of the world now? Matthew 5, verse 5. Matthew 5, verse 14. Matthew 5, verse 14. You are the light of the world. You are the light of the world. 5:28 So, if somebody asks me, Brother Zach, who is the light of the world? I say, me? I say, me? They will think I am a proud man. I am an obedient man. Matthew 5, verse 14. 5:51 And I say, not only me. If you are a disciple of Jesus, you also. How many of you have the boldness to say, I am the light of the world? Is that right? 6:13 If you don't say it, it is disobedience. The devil keeps your mouth shut saying, no, no, no, don't say that. You are only darkness. Jesus is the light. You will always be darkness. I don't believe the lie of the devil. 6:35 Everything God says, he will tell something else. That started in Eden. God said something and devil said something else. And I tell you, 95% of believers believe the devil more than God. God says, sin will not rule over you. 6:57 Anger will not rule over you. Lust of the eyes will not rule over you. The devil says, anger will rule over you. You will always lust with your eyes. And 95% of believers, they say, yes, Satan, you are right. 7:22 What God says will not work in my life. Jesus says, you are the light of the world. The devil says, don't say that. Say, say, I am only darkness. Jesus is the light of the world. And you say, yes, Satan, we will say what you say. 7:41 We will not say what Jesus says. Christianity is full of people who listen to the devil. And I will tell you something. As long as you keep confessing what the devil says, your life will be in slavery to him. 8:04 You know what you must do to be saved from sin? See Romans chapter 10. When you read a promise of God. I told you so many promises of God. What should you do? Romans chapter 10. 8:27 Verse 9. You confess with your mouth and believe in your heart. That Jesus is Lord. What he says is the truth. The devil is a liar. I will not believe him. Jesus is my Lord. 8:48 I will believe what Jesus says. And I will say it with my mouth. That is how we overcome the devil. Then, if you do that. Verse 9. It says you will be saved. 9:11 God has raised him from the dead. You believe that? That means he conquered sin. He conquered the devil. He conquered death. Confess it. Don't believe the devil's lie. So when the devil says sin will rule over you, you say sin will not rule over me. 9:36 That is how we overcome Satan. Revelation 12. Verse 9. Satan is called the deceiver of the whole world. Do you think you are cleverer than the devil? You are not. 9:57 He will trick you, fool you, deceive you. He deceives the whole world. He deceives the whole world. The only way to overcome that deception. Is by Allah. To show you the truth from the word of God. And then you can overcome him. 10:18 Verse 11. By the blood of the lamb. By the blood of the lamb. That means you say Satan. My past life has all been cleansed in the blood of Jesus. I have repented. I have repented. Confessed my sin. It is all gone. I have repented. 10:37 Confessed my sin. It is all gone. Don't let the devil torment you about some terrible sin you committed in the past. The devil will not torment you about small, small sins. 10:57 But maybe you have committed some terrible sins some years ago. Have you repented of it? Have you turned from it? Have you confessed to God. That you are 100% to blame for that sin. 11:22 Then I can tell you in Jesus name. The blood of Jesus cleansed you from that. But if you say yes the fault 90% was with me. But 10% was with somebody else. Like Adam said. 11:42 I ate the food but my wife gave it to me. Then God will say like he said to Adam. Get out of my presence. Why did God get Adam and Eve out of Eden? That was paradise. 12:06 He threw them out of paradise. Because when he asked Adam. Did you sin? Did you eat that? No, my wife gave it to me. No, my wife gave it to me. 10% my fault also. But this. That his, her fault. And God, your fault also. 12:27 Because you only gave me this wife. 45% her fault. 45% her fault. 45% your fault. And 10% my fault. God said get out of Eden. 50% my fault. God said get out of Eden. He asked Eve. Did you eat that? Not me. 12:47 The snake told me to eat it. 45% the snake's fault. And 45% your fault for creating that snake. 10% my fault. Get out of Eden. Now you see on the cross. One man is hanging there. 13:08 He has committed million sins more than Adam and Eve. His whole life he has lived in sin, murder. Stealing. And he says. Lord Jesus. It is 100% my fault. 13:30 Not my parents fault for bringing me up wrong badly. Not my friends fault for leading me astray. Not the police fault for catching me. Not the judges fault for punishing me. 100% my fault. 13:50 I don't deserve 20 years in jail. I deserve to be crucified and killed. I don't deserve 20 years in jail. I deserve to be crucified and killed. And Jesus says. Really? It is all your fault? Yes. 14:10 Come with me to paradise. Today itself we will go. How he went into paradise and Adam got kicked out. One reason. One reason. He did not blame anybody else. 14:30 Adam blamed other people. Most Christians. Most Christians blame other people. They confess their sin but maybe 10% or 20%. That is why you do not experience paradise on earth. 14:52 I have started experiencing heaven on earth itself. In my life. In my home. In my church. Because I decided. If I do something wrong. I will not blame anybody else. I will take the blame 100% myself. 15:14 If I said something to hurt my wife. I would say. My fault. 100%. I am sorry. That is my fault. Or even. If I said something. To a young brother. I would say. Brother I am sorry. I am sorry. I told the Lord. I said. Lord. 15:30 I am ready to ask. Forgiveness. Forgiveness. Forgiveness. Forgiveness. I told the Lord. I am ready to ask. Forgiveness. Forgiveness. Forgiveness. From a beggar. Or anybody in the world. I told the Lord. I said. Lord. I am ready to ask. 15:46 Forgiveness. From a beggar. Or anybody in the world. My teacher is the thief on the cross. Not Adam. Adam led me astray. By teaching me. To blame other people. Adam led me astray. By teaching me. To blame other people. So many years. 16:02 Ofgiveness. me to blame other people. So many years of my life I blamed other people and my life was miserable. Then I came to the cross and learnt not only from Jesus but also from the thief hanging there. I said you are my teacher. You thief you are my teacher. 16:33 You have taught me a great lesson in my life to take the blame 100% to say I deserve death and hell. Then my paradise life began on earth. Then Jesus said to me today you will enter into paradise. 17:03 Without dying. Living on the earth and experiencing paradise. Are you experiencing that? Is your home a little bit of paradise? Why is it not like that? Because you blame your wife. You blame your children. What to do brother? These children are so bad. I tried to bring them up properly. They all went astray. 17:39 That is why they will always go astray. God is waiting for you to say Lord it is my fault I was a bad father. I was a bad example that is why my children went astray. I have four sons who are following the Lord. They left home to go to college when they were 18 years old. I had them in my home only for 18 years. 18:15 And I told them. If you go astray. And I hear that you have gone astray. I will not blame you. I will blame myself. I will blame myself 100% and say. Because the Bible says train up a child in the way he should go when he is old. He will not depart from it. 18:43 That is Proverbs 22. That is Proverbs 22. And I said if you go astray that means I did not bring you up right. Because whatever God is true. It says if I train up a child in the right way he will go in that way. 19:05 If I train a child in the wrong way he will go in the wrong way. Now I see you going in the wrong way that means I trained you in the wrong way. Why should I be such a proud idiot to say no God's word is not true. 19:27 But I am a good man. I did it right but what do some children are going astray like that. I believe that many children continue to live in a worldly way because their parents are still not honest to take the blame themselves. 19:45 At least today take the blame before God for bringing up your children wrongly. Then there will be some hope for your children. 20:11 Say I did it wrong. Father and mother kneel down and say Lord we did it wrong. Then there is some hope. And there is another thing I told my children. If I see you going astray. And glorifying the devil and not glorifying God. 20:35 I will pray you will have a road accident and break your legs or something like that. You say oh brother Zack you will pray like that for your children. Yes because I love my children unlike you. 20:56 You will say no no no Lord don't break their bones. Let them glorify the devil little bit on earth doesn't matter but don't break their bones. I say no they should not glorify the devil even for one day. Break their legs and put them in hospital. 21:16 And let them repent over there. Will you pray that type of prayer? I tell you your children will be saved. Your children will be filled with the Holy Spirit and serve God. You must raise up another generation to serve God and you are failing God there. 21:38 You are happy because your children got baptized. What do you use getting baptized and serving the devil? You are happy your children got a job. There are many atheists who got jobs. 21:58 That is not a great thing. We have to repent as parents. My wife and I have repented and prayed so many times for our children. Lord please forgive me that small mistake. I have not been a perfect father. 22:20 I have made mistakes here and there. But Lord I am sincere. I don't want anything for myself. I want to raise up another generation that will live for you. Not a generation that will just sit in the church every Sunday. 22:41 That I am happy. Oh my children are going to church every Sunday. No I will not be happy with that. I want children who will live for God and be witnesses in their generation. And I still will not be happy. I say Lord they must have children whom they will train to bring up and live for God in their generation. 23:09 How much you will pray for your children if they don't have a job? How much you will pray for your children if they are failing in their examination? How much you will pray for your children if they are 35 years old and are not married? 23:27 Will you pray half that much that they will live for God? God can do so many things. But we must take the blame. And the blood of Jesus will cleanse all our sin. But also Revelation 12:11. 23:48 After the blood of Jesus has cleansed my past failure. I overcome Satan by giving my testimony to Satan. I used to give my testimony preaching on the streets in Cochin. 24:08 I preached in the churches. But for a long time I did not know how to give my testimony to Satan. What is the meaning of giving testimony to Satan? When Satan says you can never get victory over your anger. I quote the word of God to him. 24:34 God's word says sin will not rule over me. Satan you are a liar. God is true. I kept on saying that for years. And by the word of my testimony I overcame the devil. Today I can honestly say. 24:56 I am not afraid of the devil like I was in my younger days. And I believe the devil is afraid of me. I am angry with the devil and I know the devil is angry with me. I don't want God to be angry with me. 25:18 The more the devil is angry with me that proves more I am pleasing God. I want to ask all of you believers. Are you afraid to provoke the devil to be angry with you? 25:38 Oh you say don't do that because he may trouble me or my children in so many ways. Do you believe that Jesus is more powerful than the devil? Do you believe that Jesus has given us authority over all the power of Satan? 26:03 See Luke chapter 10. I am showing you what your father has written as your inheritance in the will. Because you are too lazy to read it yourself. 26:24 I am showing it to you. Luke chapter 10. Verse 19. The Lord says. Verse 18. I have seen Satan falling from heaven like lightning. And I have given you authority over all his power. And nothing will injure you. 26:48 Do you believe that Jesus is speaking the truth? Do you believe when he says nothing will injure you, nothing will injure you? Without God's permission. When God gave permission to Satan to cut off Paul's head, he cut off Paul's head. 27:11 He gave Satan power to crucify Jesus. He crucified Jesus. And when Thomas came to India, one day God gave permission to Satan to kill Thomas the apostle. 27:31 Then some people killed him. But until that day. Not even a hair of our head anybody can touch. Because we have authority over all Satan's power. 27:58 That is written in your Bible also. When you say Amen. We sign on the back of the check. It becomes yours. That is how we must live on this earth. So the apostle Paul. Would say follow me. 28:19 And every true servant of the new covenant. Will say follow me. Come and look. See how I live. Come and see in my home. How I treat my wife. See how I brought up my children. 28:39 See how I work with my co-workers. See if I am a boss to them or a servant to them. Follow my example. Come and look at my bank account. Pass book everything. See how I get my money. I have nothing to hide. Can you say that? 28:56 Can you say come and examine every area of my life. I have nothing to hide. Follow me. Follow me. As I follow Jesus Christ. I have not cheated anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. 29:16 I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. 29:35 I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. 29:43 I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. 29:51 I am not in debt to anybody. I am not in debt to anybody. And then you take him. Don't take him away before he repays my debt. 30:12 Don't keep saying I am waiting for Jesus to come. He won't take you up if you owe some money to somebody. Jesus is not a cheater. He won't cheap that fellow of the money by taking you away. You know, some people, they have a lot of credit card debt in one country. 30:36 They run away to another country. And they cannot catch them. That happened with some Indians in Dubai some time ago. That's what somebody told me. They have so much credit card debt, they ran away one day. 31:00 You think Jesus is going to come and take you away like that? No, he will not cheat anybody. He will say, you stay there, pay your debt and afterwards we will see. All the others I am taking, but you better stay there and clear your debt. 31:22 All the people you cheated and borrowed, please return it all. Romans 13:8 says, "Oh no man, anything." Not only money. The Bible says, "If somebody needs to be respected, respect them." 31:47 So the Apostle Paul could say, "Follow me as I follow Christ." And I only want to follow those New Covenant servants who can say to me, "Zach, follow me as I follow Christ." I don't want to follow all these other people who say, "Don't look at me, don't look at me, I am so weak, I am not a good example." 32:19 And you should never follow a man who says, "Don't look at my example, I am so bad, look at Jesus." I would tell such a man, "Then stop preaching about Jesus." 32:39 Go and sit at the back of the church and let somebody else get up and preach. We need more New Covenant servants in India. Who don't just say, "Listen to me," but who say, "Follow me, follow my example." 33:03 And especially in preaching the Word of God. What was it that the Apostle Paul preached? Romans 14, sorry, Acts of the Apostles, chapter 20. Acts of the Apostles, chapter 20. 33:24 He tells us what he preached everywhere. He said the world consists of Jews and non-Jews. But both of them have the same need. Like in India, you say upper caste, lower caste, all have the same need. 33:45 All Christians or non-Christians all have the same need. That is the meaning of Acts 20, verse 21. Today, I say to Christians and non-Christians, Paul said, "I preach two things." 34:07 Repentance and faith. This word repentance, many people have not understood. Repentance and faith are the foundation on which we can build the Christian life. You know, sometimes they build a building and the builders put some cheap material in the foundation. 34:33 And then, you read in the newspaper, six months later the whole building collapses. Why? Usually, the problem is in the foundation. 34:53 Or even if the building remains after some time, in the sixth floor there is a crack in the wall. Because one part is sinking. Why is it sinking? Because in the foundation they did not do a good job. I have seen the same thing with many Christians. 35:17 10, 15 years after they are born again, they have some problem. In their life or in their home or somewhere. Where is the problem? When they started their Christian life, they were not given a proper foundation. There was no proper repentance. 35:40 No proper faith. There are only two things in the foundation. Repentance and faith is not 25 things. It is very easy to remember repentance and faith. Most of the preaching today is only about faith. 36:00 All the preachers believe, believe, believe, believe, believe. You go to all these television evangelists on television, Christian preachers. All believe, believe, come on, believe, believe. Have you heard any of them saying, repent, repent, repent? 36:24 Even in the public meetings, they will preach, believe, believe, believe. That is a crime. That is a crime. The Bible says what God has joined together, let nobody separate. If God has joined a husband and wife together, don't separate, try to separate them. 36:53 That is a sin. God has joined repentance and faith together for the gospel. When you separate it, it is like bringing divorce. But it has been done. 37:13 Repentance has been removed. And that is why there are no children from this marriage. Can a man by himself have children? Can a woman by herself have children? No. So, faith by itself, without repentance, will not produce the fruit of spiritual children. 37:40 You can have any amount of faith you like. Just like a big, hefty woman trying to produce children on her own. I say, sister, even if you weigh 500 pounds, you cannot have a child on your own. 38:00 You need a husband. You cannot produce results with only faith, faith, faith, faith. Likewise, you cannot produce children with just repentance, repentance, repentance, repentance. There are some groups which preach only repentance, repentance, repentance. 38:29 They have fallen over the cliff that side, the other people have fallen over the cliff the other side. And the devil is happy with both of them. Have you got repentance and faith in your foundation? That is how we experience such a great salvation. 38:53 What does repentance mean? The clearest translation of that I have found in the Tamil language. I don't know what it means in Telugu. But in English, when you say repentance, it's not very clear. 39:16 In Tamil, the word is Manantirimbul. That means that turning your mind. That means it's like the military command in the military. You know, you're standing this way. About turn. 39:36 Turn right around. That is repentance. My mind is turning. I was like this. Facing the world. And sin. And the devil. And my lusts. 39:57 And behind me was God. One day, I did an about turn. Now God is in front of me. And behind me is the world. The devil. Sin. My selfish lusts. 40:18 If you have not turned like that, you have not repented. You know the difference between about turn and right turn? Right turn means like this. Now, many Christians have not done about turn, they only right turn. 40:46 Their repentance is like this. Look at God. Look at their sin. Like this. No wonder you don't experience a great salvation. You have not done an about turn in your life. 41:09 Until you do an about turn, you will never experience a full salvation. There are two verses I can say, which describe the whole world. Two verses in scripture. That describe the condition of the whole world. 41:29 Of all unconverted people. And all believers who have not repented properly. First of all, here is the condition of the world. Romans chapter 3 verse 18. Romans chapter 3 verse 18. 41:49 Romans 3 verse 18. There is no fear of God before their eyes. There is no reverence for God. Most people in the world are more afraid of the policeman than about God. 42:12 It's true. When the policeman is there, they will not go the wrong way. They will go right around the circle. They are afraid of the policeman. They will put on the seatbelt. But God. Who cares for him? 42:34 God has said something in his word. Forget it, that's not serious. But police are there. Oh, then we are. That is the condition of the whole world. And if you are like that, you are like the world. 42:55 The other verse, which describes the whole world, is Philippians chapter 2. Philippians 2 verse 21. This describes everybody in the world. 43:17 They all seek after their own interests and not the interests of Christ Jesus. So, what does it mean not to repent? I am like the people in the world. 43:38 I have no reverence for God. I have more fear of policeman than about God. And I am only seeking my own interests. What does it mean to repent? 44:00 Now I have a tremendous reverence for God. I fear God more than I fear the policeman. And I don't seek my own interests. I turn my back to that. I am seeking the interests of Christ Jesus. 44:22 I want to ask you in Jesus name to be honest. Have you repented like that anytime in your life? I told you you are getting 10% because your teachers were bad. 44:42 They did not teach you mathematics properly. And you have had bad teachers in the Christian life also. That is why you are getting 10% in your Christian life. When you could have got 100%. 45:02 If you had a teacher who told you how to turn around completely. What does it mean to fear God? See there are two types of fear of God. Listen carefully. 45:22 One is the fear that God may hurt me. Oh I am afraid. You are a child of God. You don't have to have that fear. All the punishment fell on Jesus Christ. 45:43 But there is another fear of God. Not the fear that God will hurt me. But the fear that I might hurt God. Not like a child can have a true fear. One my father may punish me. 46:05 But when he grows up. I am 20 years old. My father will not use a rod on me now. But I have a fear that I may hurt my father. By something I do or say. 46:29 Which fear do you have? The fear that God will hurt you. Or the fear that you will hurt God. In the Living Bible. There is a translation of Psalm 139. 46:51 The last verse. Psalm 139 last verse. Verse 24. It says here see if there is any hurtful way in me. 47:11 That means is there any way in me that hurts you Lord. And the Living Bible paraphrase is like this. Lord. Point out anything in me that is making you sad. 47:32 I was so gripped by that. Many years ago. That I printed many cards with that verse. And gave it to everybody in my church. I said you keep this in front of you. And look at it everyday. And pray that prayer everyday. I kept it in front of me also. 47:54 Lord. Point out anything in my life. That is making you sad. I am not afraid that you will hurt me. I am not afraid that you will hurt me. But I am terribly afraid that I may hurt you. 48:14 Because I love you Lord. I don't want to hurt you. So maybe I am ignorant in some area. So. Please point out to me anything in my life that makes you sad. that. I am not bothered whether I have a good testimony before people. 48:44 It is very easy to get a good testimony before people. But Lord. Is there anything that makes you sad. Not just on Sunday. But everyday of the week. Somebody asked me once. 49:04 Brother Zach. What is the difference between your church and all the other churches. I say okay. We don't say we are better than any church in India. 49:24 We are not perfect church. We don't say we are no hypocrites in our church. We have got as many hypocrites as any other church also. But we preach certain things from the pulpit that other churches don't preach. 49:49 And most of our leaders have some values which other people don't seem to have. For example. For many churches. Sunday is the most important day. The music must be good. 50:11 Preaching must be good. Everything must go well in the Sunday service. For us. For us. Sunday is not the important day. For us the important day is Monday. And Tuesday. And Wednesday. 50:31 And Thursday. And Friday. And Saturday. That means. That means. How you live at home. How you conduct yourself in the office. How you conduct yourself when you are traveling in a bus. 50:53 How you drive the scooter on the road. Do you shout at people and get angry like others. On Monday and Tuesday. That is what is important for us. And you come to church and you sing badly on Sunday. It doesn't matter brother. 51:09 It's okay. And if the preaching is also not so good. It doesn't matter. If you live properly the rest of the week. So I say that is one big difference. We don't emphasize the preaching and the music. We emphasize. How you live with your wife. 51:29 And day. Day by day. Of the week. The second thing. We teach our preachers. Not to receive a salary. For their service. 51:49 Because Jesus never promised a salary to his apostles. God never promised a salary to his Old Testament prophets. So that is what we teach. No salary. I work with 70, 80 co-workers. 52:10 None of us receive any salary. I have served in my Bangalore church 36 years. I have never received one paisa from there. People say then how do you live? Paul made tents. 52:31 We encourage our people to work. And if you need more trust the Lord. But don't ask people. Don't get a salary. Because then you will be a servant of men. Every organization that pays you a salary will tell you what to do. 52:58 You can't serve God. You will have to serve that organization. We want servants of God. We want servants of God. And I say if you can't trust God for money. Go and do something else. If your God is so unreliable. 53:18 That he cannot even take care of your financial needs. How in the world are you going to talk about this God to all the heathen in the world? If you really have a loving father in heaven. He will provide all your needs. 53:38 The apostle Paul preached repentance. And faith. That means I trust God. I don't trust man. Zero dependence on man. 100% dependence on God. When I was working in the Navy. 54:01 I was 25 years old. And God called me to leave my job. And that was just about 3-4 years after I got baptized. And my friend said. You are going to leave the Navy? 54:22 Have you got some other job? No job. Are you joining some Christian organization? No. I am going to serve God. They say how will you take care of your needs? 54:42 This is what I told them. I served in the Navy for 8 years. Every month on the first of the month they paid me my salary. I said. Even if you are a non-Christian. Don't you believe in a God? Do you believe this God is more unfaithful than the Navy? 55:05 That if I serve him he won't take care of my needs? If that is the God then it is better not to serve him. But I said. My God is my father. He is a million times more faithful than the Navy. 55:27 So I don't have to be afraid. And now 45 years later. I can say the same thing. My God has been faithful. I don't live on salaries. I don't ever send reports or ask anybody my needs. 55:51 I have taught other people in our churches also to do the same thing. What is faith? If you can't trust God for money you cannot trust him for anything else. See. This is what I have against all these television preachers. 56:12 This is how they preach. Trust in God. He can do anything. He can open blind eyes. He can heal cancer. He can raise the dead. He can heal your leprosy. Any disease he can heal you. There is only one thing he cannot do. 56:34 He cannot give me money. So you have to give me the money. That is the message of every television preacher. Have faith in God. He can heal diseases, raise the dead but he can't give you money. So you people who watch my television program, please send me money because God cannot do that. 57:01 And what surprises me is not these television preachers. What surprises me is these thousands of stupid Christians who say, yeah, yeah, yeah, here is your money. What deceivers they are. 57:22 That they trust in a God who can do every miracle except give you money. Can't you see through this whole thing? God who owns all the silver and the gold in the world cannot give you a little bit of money. You mean God is not interested in his work on earth? 57:44 You mean God is not interested in reaching India for Christ? Do his servants have to become beggars? Do his servants have to become beggars? Was Jesus Christ a beggar? Was Paul a beggar? 58:04 Was Peter a beggar? No. No. They trusted God. God is almighty. That is faith. Faith is to have a contact with God. It's like the light burning because it has got a contact with the source of power. 58:25 When the contact is gone, it will become dark. Faith is like that. I am plugged into God. He meets all my needs. He meets all my needs. 58:46 I am spirit, soul and body. He meets all my needs. Spirit, soul and body. Let's trust him. Let's pray. Let's bow before God. Help us to understand things which we have been blind to for so many years. 59:18 Get rid from our mind all the prejudices due to the traditions of men. We have ignored your word. And ignored the example of Jesus and the apostles. And followed men who have led us astray into the pit. 59:44 Forgive us for following blind leaders. Help us to follow Jesus once again. And the example of the apostles in the New Testament. To turn from sin. Turn from seeking our own. 1:00:06 Turn from a lack of respect for you and your word. And to trust you completely. Not only for forgiveness of sins. But for overcoming sin. And for our financial needs. 1:00:27 And every other need. You are a father who will take care of all our needs. Thank you father. In Jesus name. Amen.
