11:35 AND THEY WILL NOT REJECT IT. 11:36 YES. 11:37 THEY BELIEVE IN PRAYER, THEY BELIEVE IN GOD AND 11:40 HERE IS ANOTHER GROUP GOING ON A PILGRIMAGE AND 11:43 HERE IS A GROUP WAITING AT THE SACRED RIVER, GANGES 11:48 AND MILLIONS OF PEOPLE GO TO RIVER GANGES TRYING TO 11:53 GET RID OF THEIR SINS. 11:55 SEE, PEOPLE WILL SAY WELL, THEY WORSHIP WATER. 11:59 WHO IS THE WATER OF LIFE? 12:01 JESUS. 12:01 JESUS IS THE WATER OF LIFE. 12:03 WHAT DID JESUS SAY TO THE WOMAN AT THE WELL? 12:07 HE WOULD GIVE HER WATER THAT SHE WOULDN'T GET 12:09 THIRSTY AGAIN. 12:10 IF YOU ASKED ME - THAT'S RIGHT. 12:12 SO, THERE IS A CONNECTION -WE HAVE LOTS OF THINGS 12:16 THAT WE DON'T UNDERSTAND ABOUT OTHER RELIGIONS BUT 12:21 THEY ARE BASED ON WHAT IS IN THE BIBLE ALREADY. 12:24 THE ROCKS, UH HUH, THEY WORSHIP STONES, ROCKS AS 12:29 SACRED OBJECTS. 12:30 ONE WHO IS THE ROCK OF OUR SALVATION? 12:34 JESUS. 12:34 THE TREE. 12:35 WHO IS THE TREE OF LIFE? 12:36 GOD. 12:37 EXACTLY. 12:38 JESUS IS CALLED THE TREE OF LIFE AS WELL AND SO, 12:42 THEY WORSHIP THE SUN. 12:44 WHO IS THE SON OF RIGHTEOUSNESS? 12:46 YOU SEE ALL THESE SYMBOLS THAT THEY WORSHIP THEY ARE 12:50 ALL IN THE BIBLE BECAUSE WHEN THE EARLY GURUS IN 12:54 HINDUISM WERE TRYING TO TEACH SPIRITUAL VALUES, 12:58 THEY WERE DEALING WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT 13:01 THINKING ABSTRACT TERMS SO THEY HAD TO HAVE SYMBOLS 13:05 TO REMIND THEM OF SPIRITUAL PRINCIPLES. 13:08 AND THAT'S HOW THESE SYMBOLS CAME ABOUT AND SO, 13:12 WE HAVE TONS OF THESE SYMBOLS IN THE BIBLE DON'T 13:15 WE? 13:15 WE DO. 13:16 YOU KNOW AND MANY OF THEM ARE HARD FOR ME TO 13:17 UNDERSTAND AND SO INSTEAD OF, AND I HAVE MADE MY 13:23 PRACTICE TO STUDY THE OTHER RELIGIOUS BELIEFS SO 13:28 THAT WHEN I'M TALKING TO THE PEOPLE, I CAN CONNECT 13:31 WITH THEM. 13:32 YOU ARE MAKING BRIDGES. 13:33 YOU CAN BUILD BRIDGES AND SO WE NEED TO FIND COMMON 13:38 GROUND AND EMBRACE THEM AS PART OF THE FAMILY AND 13:42 LIKE PAUL WE WILL SAY, MAY I TELL YOU ABOUT THE 13:47 UNKNOWN GOD? 13:48 THE UNKNOWN GOD. 13:49 AND I TELL YOU WHAT A GREAT PRIVILEGE THAT IS. 13:52 AND I HAVE HAD LOTS OF HINDU BROTHERS AND SISTERS 13:55 EAT IN MY HOUSE. 13:56 OK. 13:57 AND I WILL SAY, AS A RULE, THERE IS NOT MUCH 14:01 ASSOCIATION BETWEEN THE GROUPS BUT BRAHMANS WILL 14:06 BE EATING AT MY TABLE AND I'LL SAY, WELL YOU ARE IN 14:08 A CHRISTIAN HOME YOU KNOW. 14:09 THEY SAY, WE ARE SAFE OVER HERE. 14:12 YOU SEE SO I THINK WE HAVE SO MUCH IN COMMON EVEN OUR 14:15 LIFESTYLE HAS SO MUCH IN COMMON WITH OUR HINDU 14:19 BROTHERS AND SISTERS AND THEY BELIEVE IN ANSA. 14:24 ANSA IS NON-VIOLENT MOVEMENT THAT IS A 14:28 PRINCIPLE OF LIFE WHERE YOU DON'T INJURE 14:30 ANYBODY-NONINJURY. 14:31 WELL, WE ARE VEGETARIAN YOU SEE, SO WHEN WE TALK 14:36 ABOUT VEGETARIANISM OUR LIFESTYLE, IT REALLY 14:40 RESONATES WITH THEM. 14:42 SO, FINDING COMMON GROUND AND FALLING IN LOVE WITH 14:45 THEM AS PEOPLE RATHER THAN THINKING WHEN CAN I GET 14:50 THEM REGISTERED ON MY CHURCH REGISTER? 14:52 YES. 14:53 I THINK FIRST THING IS TO MAKE FRIENDS AND THAT'S 14:57 WHAT MOTIVATES ME. 14:58 WE HAVE SO MANY PEOPLE. 15:00 GOD'S FAMILY OVER THERE WHY ARE WE NOT CONNECTING 15:03 WITH THEM? 15:04 I'LL SHOW YOU MAYBE A COUPLE MORE SLIDES, UH 15:06 HUH, HERE HOW INTENSE IS THE YEARNING FOR NIRVANA, 15:10 SALVATION. 15:12 HERE ARE THE PEOPLE WALKING ON COALS OF FIRE. 15:14 IN THE NEXT SLIDE WE FIND ANOTHER PERSON JUMPING 15:18 THROUGH BURNING FIRE. 15:20 HERE IS ANOTHER ONE AH, JUMPING THROUGH THE FIRE 15:25 AND THEY BELIEVE THESE ARE THE WAYS THEY CAN CLEANSE 15:28 THEIR BODY AND THEY CAN GET RID OF THEIR SINS. 15:32 HERE IS A PERSON AH, GOING THROUGH REAL PUNISHMENT. 15:36 PUNISHING HIS BODY. 15:37 HERE IS ANOTHER ONE SLEEPING ON A BED OF 15:39 NAILS. 15:40 IF THAT WAS NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR PENANCE, WATCH 15:44 WHAT HE DOES. 15:45 HE IS SLEEPING ON THE BED OF NAILS ANOTHER BED OF 15:47 NAILS ON TOP OF HIM AND THEN SOMEBODY STANDING ON 15:50 HIM. 15:51 SO, PEOPLE ARE REALLY DESPERATELY SEARCHING FOR 15:55 SALVATION. 15:56 HERE ARE WOMEN WHO HAVE JUST HAD A SACRED BATH IN 16:00 RIVER GANGES AND SOME MORE PEOPLE AT RIVER GANGES. 16:07 I'M RUNNING QUICKLY THROUGH THIS. 16:08 NOW THIS SLIDE IS VERY, VERY SIGNIFICANT HERE. 16:11 HERE THEY ARE PIERCING THEIR TONGUE. 16:14 PIERCING THEIR BODY. 16:16 NOW PEOPLE THINK THAT THE TATOO IS A MODERN AGE IN 16:20 MENTION. 16:21 THERE IS A VERSE IN THE BIBLE THAT SAYS, "CAN A 16:25 MOTHER FORGET HER CHILD?" 16:28 YES, SHE MIGHT BUT NOT ME, 'I HAVE TATOOED YOUR NAME 16:31 ON THE PALM OF MY HAND." 16:33 UH HUH. 16:34 SO, WE GENERALLY TATOO THE NAME ON OUR BODY SOMEWHERE 16:38 IF WE LOVE SOMEBODY, WE MAY PUT THEIR NAME. 16:41 JESUS SAYS, I'VE TATOOED YOUR NAME ON THE PALM OF 16:44 MY HAND. 16:45 THE NAILS IN HIS HAND AT THE CROSS ALWAYS REMINDED 16:50 HIM WHY DID HE COME TO THIS EARTH. 16:53 IT WAS FOR YOU AND ME AND EVERYBODY ELSE OUT THERE 16:58 THAT WE ARE NOT ABLE TO TOUCH BUT WE MUST. 17:01 HERE IS ANOTHER BIG FALLACY THAT SATAN CREATES 17:05 ACTUALLY; HE BELIEVES THAT YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH. 17:10 YOU DON'T NEED GOD. 17:12 YOU COULD DO IT ON YOUR OWN. 17:14 AND THAT IS NOT REALLY THE WAY THINGS GO. 17:18 LET ME SHOW YOU IN THE LAST SLIDE: JESUS HE IS 17:23 ALWAYS SEARCHING. 17:24 YES. 17:26 SOME PEOPLE CALL HIM THE REAL, THE REAL HUNTER OF 17:31 HEAVEN. 17:32 YES. 17:33 YOU KNOW, HE IS ALWAYS HUNTING HOW CAN I REACH 17:35 ONE MORE SOUL. 17:37 YES. 17:38 SO, I HAVE BEEN SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS WHOLE MISSION 17:42 THAT HE HAS GIVEN TO US. 17:44 YOU KNOW THAT HE DOESN'T NEED US. 17:46 HE COULD GET THIS WORK DONE THROUGH ANGELS. 17:48 IT IS OUR PRIVILEGE. 17:49 IT IS OUR PRIVILEGE. 17:51 YES. 17:51 THE ANGELS WILL DO IT FASTER WITHOUT 17:54 COMPLAINING, WITHOUT GETTING TIRED, WITHOUT 17:56 GETTING OLD AND BUT HE GIVES US THE PRIVILEGE. 18:00 HE WANTS US TO PRACTICE HOW WE ARE GOING TO LIVE 18:04 IN HEAVEN. 18:05 THAT'S SO WONDERFUL. 18:06 AND YOU HAVE MORE STORIES TO TELL BUT BEFORE WE COME 18:10 BACK AND HEAR ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THE GOSPEL 18:12 WORKERS IN INDIA, WE ARE GOING TO TAKE A SHORT 18:15 BREAK SO PLEASE, STAY TUNED. 18:17 LET'S GO INTO ALL THE WORLD AND SHARE THE GOSPEL 18:43 TO ALL PEOPLE. 18:51 THERE ARE ABOUT THREE BILLION PEOPLE IN THE 19:01 10/40 WINDOW WHO STILL NEED TO HEAR AND KNOW 19:04 JESUS LOVES THEM. 19:06 TOGETHER WITH THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS LET'S 19:11 FULFILL CHRISTS COMMISSION. 19:13 YOU CAN PRAY, VOLUNTEER OR SUPPORT A BIBLE WORKER TO 19:19 SHARE JESUS WITH OUR NEIGHBORS SO THAT ALL WILL 19:25 KNOW JESUS LOVES THEM, HE DIED FOR THEM AND HE IS 19:32 COMING SOON. 19:33 WELCOME BACK TO "ADVENTURES IN MISSIONS" 19:36 WITH ME IS MANZOOR MASSEY AND WE PROMISED WE WOULD 19:39 SHARE SOME STORIES WITH YOU ABOUT THE GOSPEL 19:42 WORKERS IN INDIA. 19:43 WELL, I AM SO HAPPY TO BE HERE WITH YOU AND I WANT 19:47 TO SHARE WITH YOU THE INVITATION I RECEIVED FROM 19:50 ONE OF THE GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKERS. 19:52 HE ACTUALLY VISITED HERE AND AH, HE WAS NOT A 19:56 GOSPEL OUTREACH WORKER AT THAT TIME BUT I GAVE HIM 19:59 BIBLE STUDIES HERE AND HE WAS BAPTIZED AT LOMA LINDA 20:02 UNIVERSITY CHURCH. 20:03 UH HUH. 20:04 AND HE WENT BACK AND GOD CALLED HIM TO BE A 20:08 MINISTER FOR HIM. 20:10 AND HE TOLD GOD THAT I AM NOT WILLING TO TALK TO 20:12 ANYBODY AND GOD SAID, WELL, I HAVE CHOSEN YOU. 20:17 AND SO, SOUNDS LIKE MOSES, YES, AND FINALLY HE SAID, 20:20 WELL, I WILL-I JUST TOLD YOU I AM NOT GOING TO TALK 20:25 TO ANYBODY. 20:26 UH GOD SAID, OK JUST WALK THE STREETS. 20:31 SO, HE BEGAN WALKING THE STREETS BUT HE SAID, I'M 20:33 NOT GOING TO TALK TO ANYBODY. 20:35 AND GOD SAID, YOU DON'T NEED TO TALK BUT IF 20:38 SOMEBODY ASKS YOU A QUESTION, YOU MUST 20:40 RESPOND. 20:42 HE SAID, THAT I WILL DO. 20:43 SO VERY A FEW DAYS LATER AS HE WAS WALKING, 20:47 SOMEBODY ASKED HIM WHO ARE YOU?
