00:41 I'm Chris Shelton, I want to thank you for joining us. 00:44 Our message for today 00:46 is entitled Thank God for the Lighthouse. 00:48 Truly it seems that lawlessness, abuse, 00:51 corruption and deception, and immorality 00:54 seem to be knocking at everyone's door these days. 00:57 Is there any hope? 00:59 Is there any way of escape? 01:01 Well, we here at Behold the Lamb Ministries 01:03 feel that certainly, God has a way of escape. 01:07 He has a way of help and hope in His Word. 01:10 And you will discover during this message that we can learn 01:14 about what God's plan of escape by studying 01:17 the simple workings 01:18 and evolution of the lighthouse. 01:21 So please plan to stay tuned and join Pastor Kenny Shelton, 01:24 as he looks into the Word of God for absolute truth, 01:28 and shares with us the only way of escape as he presents, 01:33 Thank God for the Lighthouse. 01:35 But before we join Pastor Kenny Shelton, 01:38 let's visit 3ABN 01:39 and listen to a song that is entitled 01:42 The Lighthouse as played by Sam Ocampo. 06:03 Thank you for joining us once again here at Behold 06:04 the Lamb Ministry, is always a pleasure to be able to spend 06:08 some time with you, be able to come in your home, 06:10 study the Word of God together, 06:11 I can't think of anything I'd rather be doing right now. 06:14 And we pray that you're thinking along those lines too. 06:16 Because once again, we're going to be study that I believe 06:19 is pertinent to this hour that we live in. 06:22 We live and I'll tell you fascinating hours 06:25 of earth's history. 06:27 Number one, because Jesus is going to come. 06:29 Number two, signs are everywhere that we 06:32 can't miss them. 06:33 If you're missing them, something is wrong. 06:35 We're going to be talking about, if we're missing them, 06:37 maybe there's a reason. 06:38 Today's subject is, 06:40 if it wasn't for the Lighthouse. 06:42 And we're going to figure out, 06:43 we talked about Lighthouse just a little bit 06:45 and was kind of energized by last week's children's story 06:47 about a lighthouse, 06:49 and we're going to look at it from a spiritual standpoint. 06:52 And the hour in which we are living is very, very important. 06:55 Thank God for the Lighthouse, you know, thank God for it. 06:59 Without it, we would all certainly would perish. 07:02 Again, we're glad you joined us. 07:03 We thank you for your cards, your letter, 07:05 your support of Behold the Lamb Ministry 07:07 and other ministries around 07:09 the world that are preaching present truth. 07:11 We think it's very, very important. 07:13 And thank you for helping us get this message out. 07:16 And again, we solicit your calls and your letters, 07:19 and so on, so forth. 07:21 Sometime we're maybe slow getting back. 07:24 It's just difficult some time, 07:25 all the things that are going on, 07:26 but don't give up on us. 07:28 You can always call us. 07:29 Again, we're very grateful and thankful. 07:30 Now, today, we're going to, as always, 07:33 before we get into the Word of God, 07:35 the Word is clear. 07:37 We can't understand it unless we do what? 07:39 We have to pray. You've got to pray first. 07:42 So I'm going to kneel up here, 07:43 you can if you'd like or just be in the attitude 07:45 of prayer with me 07:46 as we ask God's blessing upon this message. 07:49 Let's pray, shall we? 07:51 Loving Father in heaven, truly we thank You for Your grace 07:55 and Your love and Your mercy. 07:57 Lord, we pray that You would pour out Your Spirit. 08:00 Pour out Your Spirit upon us, Lord, as a languishing people. 08:03 Oh, how we need Your power, how we need Your Spirit, 08:06 how we need to hear from heaven today. 08:09 Lord, may our ears be open, 08:10 may our minds be receptive to that which You 08:13 have in store for us. 08:14 Bless us, we pray that this end as we think right now, 08:18 as the Holy Spirit is walking up 08:20 and down the aisles as it were, 08:22 and we pray that we will remember that it will keep 08:24 our mind stayed upon You in Jesus' name. 08:26 Amen. Amen. 08:28 Did Gorman talk again about the lighthouse, 08:31 and I thought it was very, very interesting. 08:33 If it wasn't for the lighthouse, 08:35 you know, where would we be? 08:36 And so we go back in time, and we think about it, 08:40 you know, it goes back to antiquity, 08:43 if you want to go back that far, 08:45 that the lighthouses, why were they put up? 08:47 Certainly, it was to warn the ships and the captains 08:52 and people on the water that there was danger ahead. 08:57 Danger ahead, death could be there. 08:59 It wasn't just a little scrape, or maybe, 09:01 but it was a shipwreck, and sometimes thousands, 09:04 hundreds of thousands of lives were lost, 09:06 you know, over a year's time, or, you know, 09:08 a month's time, stormy time, 09:10 because they could not see 09:13 and they were not warned that land was right upon them. 09:16 And I want you to take all this serious spiritually 09:19 today along with me. 09:21 The first one was controlled by fires, as we will know and, 09:25 you know, that's, that was nice as always on a high place, 09:29 right, for people to see because it will shine out 09:31 further, you know, for to warn the others. 09:34 And over time, 09:35 we find that these signals just wasn't sufficient. 09:38 And so, you know, the Bible tells us 09:40 and I think it's Daniel 12:4, isn't it? 09:42 It says as knowledge will increase, 09:45 right, men will run to and fro. 09:47 And so as knowledge increase, 09:48 there was better ways to put up to warn them many 09:51 nautical miles out into the oceans, 09:54 so that they did not run into all these snags, 09:57 all of these rocks and all the danger. 09:59 Like us spiritually today, be careful because the enemy 10:02 has a rock out there for you. 10:04 He has a snag out there for you, 10:06 and he has one for me. 10:09 Of course in about 1820, that goes back quite 10:11 a ways that things really changed, 10:14 and it was really brighter light, shine out further, 10:18 safety, but still yet there was shipwrecks. 10:22 So I'm wondering today we pray that you are not making 10:24 a shipwreck of your life. 10:27 Where is that lighthouse? 10:28 Do you have a lighthouse? 10:30 What is the lighthouse? 10:32 You know, could it be Jesus? 10:33 And could it be the Word of God? 10:35 Is that still shining today? 10:38 You know, I believe it's still shining today. 10:40 It's shining brightly, 10:41 but many of us fail to see it because we have blinders on. 10:45 Our mind is close to what's going on in the world, 10:47 because we don't want to understand what's happening. 10:51 We don't want to make any changes in our life. 10:53 We want to profess that we are a Christian. 10:56 Remember, you call yourself a Christian, 10:57 I call myself a Christian. 10:59 That means simple language, is to be Christ like, 11:03 to be Christ like. 11:04 If we're not Christ like in our actions and our talk 11:06 and our deeds and so on, we're really none of His. 11:10 And Jesus makes it very simple in His Word. 11:11 Remember what He says? 11:13 He who is not with Me is what? 11:16 Is against Me. 11:18 If we're not with Him, then we're against Him. 11:19 There's no middle ground, there's no me I wish, I seem, 11:22 I'm a pretty good guy, I'm going to make it, 11:24 you're either with Him or we're not. 11:26 One of my favorite songs, every time I hear one, 11:30 it's my favorite. 11:32 Is it okay to say that? I just like it at the time. 11:34 It fits the bill. 11:35 One of my favorite songs is, you know, 11:37 if it wasn't for the lighthouse, 11:39 many of you know that song. 11:42 You know, I think the words have meaning for today 11:45 and the society that we are living in, 11:48 because it tells of the struggles that many 11:51 of us are going through in life. 11:54 It tells of the dangers that approach us each and every day. 11:58 And sometimes we just don't see clear enough. 12:02 And sometimes we fall into these little snares, 12:04 we make a shipwreck of our faith because we make 12:08 wrong choices and decision 12:09 is because we were not seeing clear enough. 12:12 We need more light, 12:13 and many times that light did not 12:15 come because we didn't ask for it, 12:19 and we weren't looking for it and we crashed. 12:22 So most of us can look back in our life, 12:24 and we say at one time or the other we crashed. 12:27 We crashed in our experience with Christ. 12:30 It doesn't make us happy, 12:31 but I think it's good to at least acknowledge that 12:33 and that we have learned from that. 12:36 With all the confusion, at least in my mind, 12:40 and all the voices, and the fear 12:44 and all the questions we have today about our lives 12:47 and where we are headed, the biggest question is, 12:51 I hear, what's going to happen? 12:54 What's going to happen? 12:57 Where do you direct a person to asking that question? 13:00 'Cause remember, listen, remember, heaven 13:02 is going to be your home, or can I say heaven or hell? 13:05 Is that okay to be playing? 13:07 You're either going to heaven or you're going to hell, 13:08 one or the other, you'll have to choose, 13:10 you'll have to decide. 13:11 You can't blame me. 13:13 I'm not going to blame you. 13:14 It's between you, your choice. 13:17 And why not choose heaven? 13:18 Why not choose eternal life? 13:20 Because God says, I'm going to help you make those decision. 13:23 I'm going to help you make those choices, 13:25 and I know you're confused. 13:28 And I know that you're sometimes like 13:29 butting our head against a brick wall, we say. 13:34 What's going to happen in this world? 13:36 What I see in the world taking place right now, 13:38 if it wasn't for God and His Word, 13:40 I think I would go crazy. 13:41 Is it okay to say that? 13:44 Is that okay? 13:47 I would have no direction at all because everybody 13:49 I hear and see, they're going at different direction. 13:52 And it's not the way of the word, is not the way 13:54 of any things, you know, maybe that's right, 13:59 but they're going so many different directions. 14:02 I heard, you know, I've heard a lot of people say, 14:04 "I'd like to do the right thing." 14:05 Have you ever talk to somebody, 14:07 "I'd like to do the right thing, but..." 14:11 Remember God's people are sheep, right? 14:15 They listen and they do what? 14:16 They hear, and then they follow the Lamb. 14:20 The enemy, right, he has goats because they're always 14:25 saying "but". 14:26 Okay, we'll go on with that, right? 14:30 "I would do it but..." 14:32 That's what goats do, isn't that right? 14:34 Okay, now we got it. All right. 14:37 Either for Him or we are against Him. 14:41 I've heard this. 14:43 Many people are pulling me different directions. 14:45 Do you ever have that in your life? 14:46 Somebody is pulling you over here, 14:48 somebody else's pulling this direction 14:50 and that direction, you say, 14:51 "I don't know which way to go because I'm being pulled, 14:53 and it feels like I'm being pulled in two 14:56 and I need some help." 14:59 I think it would do us some good today because I talk 15:02 about there's a lighthouse on the hilltop. 15:04 Just go over those words, 15:05 if you'll just allow me to do that. 15:07 Think spiritually with me, please. 15:09 These are fantastic words, and I think that the principle 15:13 is just right out of Scripture. 15:16 And I feel like it's just right out of my own life 15:19 and you're going to feel like it's maybe in your life, 15:20 it's worth the reading for sure. 15:23 The song said, there's a lighthouse 15:25 on the hillside that overlooks life's sea. 15:30 When I'm tossed, it sends out a light, 15:33 a light that I might see. 15:37 And that light shines in darkness. 15:40 So, boy, now will safely lead me home. 15:43 If it wasn't for the lighthouse, listen church, 15:46 if it wasn't for the lighthouse, 15:48 my ship would sail no more. 15:53 Second verse says everybody, I included myself. 15:57 Everybody who lives around me says, 15:59 "Tear that lighthouse down. 16:02 These big ships, they don't sail this way anymore. 16:06 There's no use it standing around." 16:09 You've heard people saying, we don't need the Word of God, 16:11 we don't need direction, we don't need any light, 16:13 we just need to follow what we have gotten. 16:15 Oh, then my mind goes back to that stormy night, 16:20 and everybody's had it. 16:22 We've had stormy nights. 16:23 But would just in time, I saw the light, 16:27 old light from that old lighthouse 16:30 that stands up on the hill. 16:33 The chorus goes something like this. 16:35 And I thank God for the lighthouse. 16:38 I hope somebody is thanking God right now. 16:40 I hope somebody is excited about, 16:42 thank God for this spiritual lighthouse. 16:45 In other words, I owe my life to Him, 16:48 for Jesus is that lighthouse. 16:51 And from the rocks of sin, notice that, 16:54 the rocks out there, rocks of what? 16:56 Of sin, He has shone the light 16:58 around me that I might clearly see 17:02 if it wasn't for that lighthouse, 17:06 tell me where would this ship be? 17:10 Where would you be today without that lighthouse? 17:13 Where would you be without Jesus? 17:14 Where would you be without the Word of God today? 17:17 We know that lighthouse is Jesus Christ, do we not? 17:20 If you don't know, I encourage you to look today. 17:24 He wants to shine that light to you. 17:25 In fact, in John 8:12, the Bible is so clear. 17:28 It says, "Then spake Jesus again to them saying," 17:31 who's speaking? 17:33 Jesus was saying here, notice, "I am what? 17:37 I am the light of the world. 17:41 He that follow with me will not? What? 17:43 Shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life. 17:48 He that follows me will not walk in what? 17:51 In darkness." 17:52 If we're following after Christ, 17:53 we're not going to shipwreck. 17:55 For walking in darkness, 17:56 we're not going to get ourselves 17:58 messed up in the world 17:59 and things that are going on in the world today, 18:00 because He's shining the light on these things, 18:02 and gives you courage, strength and faith, 18:05 right, to move forward by the grace of God, 18:07 to move on and gain victory. 18:09 And that's encouraging to me and then He says in John 1:4-5. 18:14 John 1:4-5. 18:17 Notice that, I love it starts out, "In him was life." 18:20 What was it? 18:22 In him is what? 18:24 There is no life outside of Him. 18:27 You may think you have life, those of you who have not 18:29 accepted Him, you may think you have life, 18:31 you don't have life without Him because the Word 18:33 of God says what? 18:35 There is no life, in Him was life. 18:37 He's the only one and the life was the light of men. 18:42 I need more light to be able to see 18:44 what's happening in the world. 18:46 I need more light upon the Word of God. 18:49 What helped me understand and be able to help others 18:51 and help myself to the kingdom of God. 18:54 Because it said that light shineth in darkness. 18:58 Do you believe we live in a dark world? 19:00 Brother Jan, I believe we're living in one 19:02 of darkest periods of earth's history, 19:05 because it gets worse and worse. 19:07 The time when Christ came here, several thousand years ago, 19:10 it was the darkest time of earth's history then, 19:13 but now 2000 more years 19:14 as we're over that we realize here, 19:16 it's darker than ever before. 19:18 We need help, we need a lighthouse, 19:21 we need a light to shine upon this, but you know what? 19:24 When Jesus came, the Bible simply says, 19:27 "When the light shine," it said, "and darkness, 19:29 people in darkness comprehended it not." 19:33 There were those who comprehended 19:34 the coming of Jesus. 19:36 Then there were multitudes, millions that didn't. 19:39 They didn't comprehend it. 19:41 They comprehended it not, it's what the Bible said. 19:44 I say today if we ever needed light 19:46 and the spiritual light, it's now. 19:49 Prophecy convinces, as you read prophecy, 19:53 see our problem today is not just, 19:55 it's not there, it is here. 19:58 It's here over and over in the Word of God, 20:01 if you want to know, if we read prophecy, 20:03 it convinces many that just before Jesus comes, 20:08 so don't be shocked about this, there's going to be some 20:11 great challenges, listen, in the church and in the world. 20:16 We're going to be faced with these great, 20:18 momentous challenges. 20:21 Circumstances are going to be so arranged 20:23 and come about that every person, listen, 20:28 every person on the face of the planet 20:30 will be tested to their loyalty of God. 20:33 Now remember, talk is cheap. 20:37 Can I say that? 20:40 There's a lot of wind bags in the church. 20:43 I don't say anybody here. 20:45 But there's a lot of windy stuff going on in the churches, 20:49 a lot of talk. 20:51 When they're in church, you know, they're holy, 20:53 and they're all wonderful, and then during the week, 20:56 they live for the enemy. 21:00 Now think about, not trying to judge anyone, 21:02 not trying to say it, but you know, 21:03 again by their fruits, Jesus said you, you'll know them. 21:07 If you're a Christian, you're a Christian 24/7, 21:10 not just on, they say one day a week. 21:15 The Word does tell us 21:17 He is the light of the world. 21:21 As long as we had that light shining, 21:23 we will not wreck on the things of this world. 21:28 You know, again, why so many wrecks in the Christian 21:30 life then if He is the light of the world, 21:32 and we're following Him? 21:36 We can understand tripping over something in darkness. 21:41 We've all done it, stumped our toes, whatever. 21:44 We've got hurt. 21:45 Problems in life, made wrong choice 21:47 and decisions, but now what? 21:49 Light is shining upon our pathway, 21:51 we should be able to see. 21:53 Maybe the question might be this, 21:54 what does God want from me? 21:57 This is very pertinent in this hour 21:59 that we're living in considering prophecy, 22:01 considering what's taking place in the world. 22:04 Things that we don't understand 22:05 and we see every day things are changing, 22:07 and it's changing to the worst. 22:09 It's almost insane of what's taking place today. 22:14 And what may take place tomorrow, 22:16 and it's going to, listen, 22:17 you are going to be involved and I'm going to be involved, 22:20 and we're going to have to make a decision. 22:24 What does God want from us? 22:26 What does God want from me? 22:31 I don't know about you, but I like simple answers. 22:35 Sometime I like to say, 22:36 "God, say yes or no." 22:41 Yeah, this is what you just say yes. 22:43 Lord, I don't know what to do here, 22:44 just say yes. 22:47 And no, we are looking to want to say no, 22:48 but sometimes it doesn't work out that way at all. 22:53 And there's time I like to say, "Lord, 22:55 let's make a list, 22:58 do's and don'ts. Simple." 23:01 Do this, and don't, you know, He's done that. 23:04 Done that in His law, has He not? 23:07 Do's and don'ts and He's make it yes and no. 23:11 The high priest you remember? 23:16 Will He really guide me in this mess that we're in right now? 23:21 Will He guide me in the small details of my life? 23:24 Is He interested in... 23:27 Woo, be careful Kenny, it's nothing personal, in a phone? 23:32 I think He is. 23:34 That's the small details of life. 23:35 It seems mighty at that point in time and it's big, 23:39 but not to God. 23:43 But you know what? Because it is to you, He cares. 23:46 How many times you've lost your purse? 23:47 How many times we've lost this or that and we say God help us? 23:50 We've lost a key and all of a sudden there it is. 23:55 See, this is where I'm challenged. 23:57 I'm challenged with this because, let's give you 23:59 just a little example. 24:00 All I have to do as Abraham did, 24:02 is all I have to do at night is look up. 24:05 And I see the stars in heavens. 24:09 Listen, the nearest star to this planet 24:14 is about 25 billion miles away. 24:19 Somebody is not with it. 24:21 The nearest star 24:23 is about 25 billion miles from this planet. 24:28 Isn't that awesome that the eyes can still see that far? 24:33 25, see we, 25 billion, let's see, oh, you can't. 24:37 Yeah. 24:39 Think about it. 24:41 Yeah, and Genesis 22:17, remember, 24:45 where God said He's going to bless Abraham? 24:47 He said, I'm going to bless you as what? 24:48 The stars of heaven, as the sand of the sea. 24:52 That's awesome when you think about it. 24:54 The number of the stars, 24:55 the number of the sand of the sea, 24:58 and all the seas, Gods said I'm going to bless you. 25:00 Keep that in mind as we go because we're looking here. 25:04 Now think about this in Psalms 147:4. 25:08 Again, there's a lighthouse on the seal top, 25:11 that's overlooking life's sea, the all that's going on, 25:15 all the wind that blows. 25:18 How wonderful? 25:19 What a creator we have? 25:20 This encourages me. 25:22 Present truth can be put in simple form sometimes, 25:25 not necessarily going all into prophecy, 25:27 but saying what kind of a God that's there to help us. 25:30 We need that as God's people. 25:33 How wonderful a creator that we have? 25:35 Notice Psalms 147:4 says, 25:38 listen carefully. 25:41 He telleth, remember, the stars are like him, 25:44 right, sand of the sea is just, oh, it says here, 25:48 he telleth the, notice this, 25:50 he telleth the number of the stars. 25:56 He calleth them all by their name. 26:00 He's put those stars up there, and He calls them by name, 26:06 just like He knows your name. 26:08 Just like He says, I know the number of hair on your head. 26:12 I've got a close eye on you not to see if you're good or bad, 26:15 but so I can help you. 26:17 What kind of a God do we serve that says a stars I love? 26:21 He created the stars up there, and He said and all the sand 26:24 of the sea and I call them all by name. 26:27 Listen, astronomers, I just be careful, 26:31 I've had comments about, I'm just not going to say. 26:33 The astronomers, other words, the stargazers, 26:36 the people who look into the heavens, 26:38 who says they know anything. 26:40 But they do look up and they do study, 26:42 and so here's what they say. 26:45 They say, "We can somewhat guess 26:48 how many stars there are in the universe." 26:50 Yeah. 26:51 They call it something like this. 26:55 It's 10 to the 26th power. 26:59 Now, I don't do math like that. 27:02 I do two plus two. 27:06 I think it's still four, Levi. 27:12 Do you understand what 10 to the 26 power? 27:15 That means whatever number you put up there, 27:17 it's got 26 zeros after it. 27:20 And I'm thinking, well, that still don't help me 27:22 a whole lot right here. 27:24 So that means they're saying here there is a, 27:27 there is 100 million, billion, 27:30 billion stars. 27:34 Now, we know they can't count the stars. 27:38 They can't see that far. 27:41 They're seeing the edges of God's creation. 27:45 And I believe that God is still creating, 27:46 He's in the creating business. 27:48 He's still working on me. Right? 27:51 He's still working in the universe, 27:53 and the universe is opening up and is expanding all the time. 27:57 Wait, how can we think about it? 28:01 If a person could, let me give you the illustration, 28:03 if a person could count 10 numbers, 28:06 now notice this, 10 numbers per second, 28:10 it would take him at least a thousand million, 28:15 billion years to count to the number 28:19 10 to the 26th power. 28:22 Somebody is not going to get it. 28:24 You know why? I don't get it. 28:26 That's too deep. 28:28 It's too deep. 28:31 We're talking about something that's infinite here, 28:35 but yet He cares about you and He cares about me. 28:39 Oh, a little star, oh, a little star, really? 28:42 Size of the stars, they, 28:44 you know, there's different one, 28:46 little smaller ones and there's some 28:48 the size of this earth. 28:50 And then there's some, if you think about, 28:52 the diameter of the largest star, 28:55 says the brains, those who study them 28:59 says it's 155,000 29:04 times larger than the diameter of this earth. 29:08 Did you get it? 29:09 155,000 times. 29:13 You think that's not a big star? 29:16 And He puts them there, He hangs them, 29:19 and He calls them by name. 29:21 He doesn't become confused with the stars of the billions 29:24 and trillions and quadrillions, 29:25 whatever it might be. 29:27 And He's not confused about your name or mine either. 29:29 Man, you talk about beautiful, huh? 29:33 And they say, well, how big is the universe? 29:36 Listen for man to even approach that is ridiculous. 29:39 Are you still there? 29:40 How big is the universe? 29:42 My uncle always said he get up front, he'd preach, Uncle Owen, 29:44 he get up, yeah. 29:46 In every Sabbath when he would preach, 29:47 he talked about the new heaven and the new earth. 29:50 I always loved as a child but saying that every time, 29:53 the new heaven and new earth, 29:55 I always loved hearing him talk about it. 29:56 Then he would say, "How big is heaven and the earth?" 30:02 Well, I don't know. 30:05 Let's see, when you get to the end of it, 30:06 is there a wall? 30:08 Oh my, then he'd stomp himself 30:10 and then he'd start talking to himself, 30:12 "When you get to the wall, then what's on the other 30:14 side of the wall? 30:15 How thick?" Is anybody getting this? 30:20 You can't say there's an end to the universe. 30:23 There is no end to God. 30:25 So it's too much for our mind and our thinking. 30:28 But notice, the astronomers, listen, 30:31 they can calculate and look 30:33 and they say that they can calculate at least, 30:36 how big is the universe? 30:37 They say we can only go 46 billion 30:42 light years from earth. 30:48 Forty six billion light years they can hit, 30:53 know realize there's something out there, 30:55 but they can't go beyond that. 30:58 Light travels at 186,000 miles a second. 31:03 Did you get that? 31:05 Remember, 46 billion light years 31:09 of what they're saying. 31:11 My! 31:12 So how much, you know, how fast is... 31:14 How far does light travel in a year? 31:16 Just in one year. Interesting. 31:19 You'd figure it up. It's about 6 trillion. 31:23 Somebody, 31:24 6 trillion miles a year. 31:29 Remember, light travels 6 trillion. 31:32 Now we're talking about the universe. 31:34 We're talking about how big God is, 31:36 and yet He cares for you, and He cares for me. 31:38 Even when we've gone wrong, 31:40 even when we made the wrong turn, 31:42 even when everything seems to go wrong, 31:44 we're doing everything we can to hurt Him. 31:46 We've hung Him up on the cross 31:47 and we keep nailing Him in there all 31:49 the time by our lifestyle, but God says, 31:51 "No, I care for you." 31:53 Look at all this vast universe did you get that? 31:55 We're talking 46 billion light years, 31:58 I just mentioned one light year. 32:01 It travels measured, 32:02 oh, 6 trillion miles. 32:08 And now check it. 32:09 The Bible is really clear and I thought it's interesting. 32:11 1 Corinthians 15:41. 32:13 1 Corinthians 15:41 says this, 32:18 "One star differ from another 32:22 star in glory." 32:24 One star does what? 32:27 There's no two stars alike in the universe. 32:31 Just like there's no two snowflakes. 32:35 I can't get it. 32:36 Terry, it's over my head. I can only read it. 32:38 But people who've studied and studied 32:41 and looked and looked and looked and looked 32:42 and they're saying, all that we can see up there with 32:44 the big telescopes, everything's going on, 32:46 there's no two stars alike, man, billions, trillions, 32:49 quadrillions, whatever, you can't even count the number. 32:51 It can take you billions of years to even start counting. 32:53 What man can see right now, there's no two alike. 32:57 Just like there's no two alike here on this planet. 33:00 Call yourself identical twin, whatever you want to do, 33:02 the mind, there's no two people 33:05 alike in every way. 33:10 That's how special you are. 33:12 That's how special the universe is the stars. 33:17 Psalms 19:1 is very clear. I love it. 33:19 It simply says this, "The heavens declare," what? 33:24 Oh, good. 33:25 "The heavens declare the glory of God." 33:27 God's glory. 33:29 We need it in this hour 33:30 of devastation that this country is in. 33:33 United States is going down the tube, 33:35 I can't say it enough. 33:36 Even praising God right here, I'm praising Him today 33:39 and want to lift Him up to you to say 33:40 you have nothing to fear. 33:42 You have nothing to worry about because God is in charge. 33:45 His eye is on the sparrow. 33:47 His eye is on you today in a very special way. 33:50 The heavens declare the glory of God. 33:53 See the sun we realize is moving 33:56 around a center called The Milky Way. 33:58 We've heard that galaxy which we are I guess in. 34:03 It's in a gigantic orbit. 34:05 Very interesting. 34:07 Listen, that requires 2 million 34:12 centuries to complete. 34:17 I'm having a hard time with two days. 34:21 Two million centuries to go around, 34:23 right, to complete the orbit. 34:25 And listen, and that's going at a speed 34:27 of 600,000 miles an hour, 34:30 600,000 miles an hour. 34:33 I'm just trying to say, 34:34 this is just a little touch of how big. 34:37 Woo, that song says, "How big is God?" 34:39 How big and wide His vast domain? 34:43 He is big, He is powerful, 34:45 but you are the apple of His eye. 34:48 Man, He love you so much, 34:49 He said, "If it only been you, 34:51 I would've went to Calvary for. 34:52 We spit in His face right there, 34:53 we nailed Him and re-nailed Him and still yet He says, 34:56 "You're still the apple of my eye. 34:57 I still love you. 34:58 I'll do everything possible to make sure you're with me. 35:01 But if you choose not to, I can't make you." 35:05 Know that lighthouse is still shining. 35:08 That light is still shining on God's people today. 35:11 I can be assured that God cares for me, 35:13 you can be assured that God cares for you. 35:16 It's, you know what? 35:18 It seems almost too good to be true. 35:21 It takes some faith here, does it not? 35:24 To say, you know, a universe like that, 35:26 that there's no end to it and all these things. 35:29 Remember, it says He hangs them on nothing. 35:32 How can you hang something that's 155,000 35:36 times bigger than this earth 35:37 as it were just hanging it up there and call it by name 35:39 and you never forget, 35:41 and you say stay there until I tell you different. 35:44 Amen. 35:46 Somebody is not getting it. 35:49 Even nature obeys God 35:52 when man is the only defiant. 35:57 We seem to know more than God. 36:01 It's almost unbelievable how good this is. 36:05 I know who holds the universe. 36:08 This helps me in this devilish society that we live in, 36:12 this deadliest world. 36:13 United States, I believe, again, it's coming to an end. 36:18 The rulership, just like a Babylon, Medo-Persia, 36:22 Greece, Rome, pagan Rome, papal Rome, all has had their time, 36:25 and then when they turn their back on God, 36:27 then God has to let them go and do what they want. 36:31 We have turned our back on Him, we've kicked Him out, 36:34 we've done everything possible to get rid of God. 36:38 Even though God says I love you, remember, 36:40 it says it's in Him, what is it? 36:41 Acts 17, it's in Him that we live and that we move, 36:45 and we have our being. 36:47 How do you live? It's in Him. 36:48 We should thank Him today. 36:50 How can we ignore Him that we move around is through Him. 36:54 It's how we're sustained by the food and so on, 36:57 and rain and shelter, it's God. 37:01 And so the question might come many times. 37:05 I was thinking it's Acts 17:28. 37:08 But in this uncertain world, 37:11 and I say it's uncertain to the point that what? 37:15 When we look to the Word of God, 37:16 it's very certain what's soon to take place, 37:18 what is taking place. 37:21 We need not keep saying this is going to happen, 37:23 this is going, we're in the midst of it right now. 37:29 Anyone who's reading prophecy, 37:31 and very few people are studying the two books 37:33 we need to study now, Daniel and Revelation. 37:36 Those are the two that most preachers and pastors 37:39 and churches say stay out of. 37:42 Bret, you read Book of Revelation, Revelation, right? 37:45 Chapter 1, what is it? 37:46 Revelation is a revealing of Jesus Christ 37:49 and those things that are shortly to come to past. 37:52 See why the devil says, "Stay out of it." 37:54 I mean, that's so obvious. 37:56 It's like some of the things are happening 37:57 in the government today. 37:58 You say surely not. 38:01 They say this is normal, this is right. 38:02 That's not right. It's not normal. 38:04 We shouldn't be having that's thrown out there as normal. 38:09 What's going on in our world? 38:11 Who's in charge? 38:13 Do we really know? 38:15 Is it man? Is it God? 38:16 Is it the nation? 38:19 Who's saying? Well, somebody saying God. 38:20 Praise God for that. 38:23 Listen, but why are some who are in authority today, 38:27 some who are ruling in this world today, 38:29 why are they still in office? 38:34 Don't stand by and start saying politics, 38:36 I don't want to hear it. 38:39 It's not politics. 38:40 It's about what God has put in His Word over 38:42 and over about those who rule 38:44 and what it takes to continue to rule, 38:47 and if you don't go along with God's plan, 38:50 you're replaced. 38:52 Again, I say again, 38:54 because the United States of America 38:55 is soon to be replaced. 38:57 It's changing before our very eyes right now. 39:00 Don't deny it. 39:03 Remember, God shines light because the lighthouse 39:07 is still there, right? 39:09 I call it present truth. 39:11 Let me just give you one quickly. 39:12 This will encourage those of you, most of you, 39:14 and you understand this. 39:16 There'll be a lot who will watch or listen, 39:18 who never heard these things before, we need to go back. 39:21 Daniel 4:17, because when you say 39:23 why is this country in the mess it's in? 39:26 Why did such and such get elected in office? 39:28 Why in the world is he still there? 39:30 Everything he does seems to be wrong. 39:31 We've heard that over and over for years. 39:34 The Bible is clear. 39:36 Daniel 4:17 says, 39:37 "This matter is by the decree of the watchers." 39:41 Now who is a watcher in Daniel 4:17? 39:44 What is a watcher? 39:46 Well, a watcher is a heavenly messenger, 39:48 would it be or an angel? 39:49 There's no doubt about it. 39:50 And holy one, the Bible says, 39:52 who watches the affairs of life. 39:55 God's eye is on this world, right? 39:58 God's eyes on this earth, this planet. 40:02 He cares about you and He cares about me. 40:05 Let's, let's read on. 40:07 You know, remember, here's what the demands 40:09 of the Holy One says to the intent that, 40:13 notice this, to the living may know that the what? 40:16 This is for you and me. 40:19 The holy watchers are saying, this is for the living. 40:21 This is what the living needed they may know that the Most 40:25 High God ruleth in the kingdom of men. 40:27 Who rules? God. 40:30 Are you concerned about the government? 40:31 Are you concerned about what's happening? 40:32 Are you concerned who's elected in office? 40:34 Are you concerned about this and that? 40:36 Oh, we get scathing letters at time to say, oh, my land, 40:39 basically, you're trusting too much in God, 40:41 and we need to have the right people in office. 40:44 Right? 40:45 People in office need to know God. 40:47 There's no doubt about it. 40:48 The Bible says, "The living may know that the Most 40:51 High ruleth in the kingdom of." 40:52 what? 40:54 "In the kingdom of men," now notice," 40:55 and giveth it to whomsoever he will 40:59 and setteth up over it the basest 41:01 of men or the lowest or the humblest." 41:04 Who sets them up and who takes them down once again? 41:07 God does. 41:08 We say, well, it was the election and this people, 41:10 God's eyes on it. 41:11 He knows who's going to be, He knows who's going to fulfill 41:13 His purpose and His will. 41:15 He's got an eye. 41:17 Remember, He can stop anything He wants to stop. 41:19 He's God. 41:20 But when He's letting it go, then you 41:23 and I need to let it go, and let God. 41:28 As a brother mentioned here, 41:29 when I didn't have an air conditioner, 41:32 and it was so hot, I couldn't hardly believe it, 41:35 couldn't afford it, basically, 41:36 the bottom line was, what did he pray? 41:38 God send me a bigger air conditioner. 41:42 God sent me a bigger air conditioner. 41:43 No, he didn't say that. 41:44 He said, "God help me to make an adjustment 41:46 so I can live without it." 41:50 Did you get it? 41:52 See, we want the air conditioner. 41:53 That's right. 41:55 But in other words, it's different to pray, 41:57 Lord, help me to get accustomed to it if I can't have one. 42:01 We need to be praying like never before. 42:04 God does what? 42:05 He giveth it to whomsoever He wills what the Bible said. 42:09 Now, let's back it up with another text in the Book 42:10 of Daniel 4:32. 42:13 Remember, there's a lighthouse 42:14 and it's shining light on the world that we 42:17 live in right now. 42:18 There's no need for us to shipwreck, 42:20 there's no use to lose our faith right now. 42:23 We need to remember notice, 42:24 "And they shall drive thee from men." 42:26 Who is it talking about? 42:28 Remember, Babylon talking about King Nebuchadnezzar? 42:32 Remember, King Nebuchadnezzar, is just like some 42:34 of our leaders we've had before. 42:35 They tried to take all the praise to themselves. 42:38 Look at this wonderful thing that I have done. 42:40 I have done it, I have done that. 42:42 God has enough of the I problem. 42:44 He don't want I problem in this. 42:46 We give God the praise, right, and the honor 42:48 and the glory for all the good things, 42:50 certainly, that take place in the world. 42:52 But he said the King Nebuchadnezzar, he said, 42:55 "Thy dwelling shall be with the beast of the field." 43:00 Notice, King Nebuchadnezzar, 43:01 you're going to eat grass, 43:02 like the oxygen seven times will pass over 43:05 you or for seven years, you're going to be down 43:07 out in the field eat grass. 43:09 God can humble the greatest. 43:12 You're not too big, not too big that God can humble you. 43:16 Notice this. Now why? 43:18 And he said, you're going to be out there for seven years 43:20 until thou knowest that the Most High 43:24 ruleth in the kingdom of men, notice, 43:27 and giveth it to whomsoever he will. 43:31 So we can complain about who's in office, 43:32 who's been elected, who hasn't, 43:34 got about this stuff goes on and on and little of that. 43:37 My Bible, here Bible says here God what? 43:40 He giveth to whom whoever He will. 43:42 God has a plan and I have to be right. 43:45 Shuck my plan, as it were right, 43:48 and accept God's plan. 43:50 So God encourage us here in the Book of Daniel. 43:53 He says, "I want the living to know." 43:57 The living to know what? 43:58 That God rules. 44:00 Are you laying rule in your life? 44:03 Am I letting really rule in my life or I'm I kind of doing 44:05 what I want to do? 44:07 Because God was dealing not only with Babylon, 44:09 certainly he was dealing with the king. 44:11 And, of course, it goes on, 44:13 he's dealing with nations today. 44:16 His eyes on the nations, now notice, 44:18 and the importance of what the nations accept 44:23 or what the nations reject. 44:25 Remember, a nation is in power as long as they what? 44:30 Come on church, as long as they go along with 44:32 what God has said in His Word, isn't that right? 44:34 As long as they're true to God, the nation still exists 44:37 and grows and prospers. 44:39 When we go against God's principles of His Word, 44:42 it's time to go down. 44:43 Every time it will always happen that way. 44:48 So that we know that the Most High ruleth. 44:52 He's working out His plan today. 44:54 I want to encourage you, in people and in nations today. 44:58 A few examples. 45:00 Let me give you a couple examples. 45:01 I just a few minutes left, ten minutes left. 45:02 Come on now church. 45:05 Yeah, come on. 45:07 Few examples, you remember when the call 45:08 of Abraham just kind of think about we won't go into detail, 45:11 call of Abraham, God worked mighty, mighty miracles. 45:15 Did He not to demonstrate His love for us? 45:19 The course of His wisdom is following God's plan. 45:21 Look at what God did. 45:23 You look at it over and over and over. 45:25 Because the Bible says in Romans, what is it? 45:28 11:33, "O the depth of his riches," 45:31 you remember that? 45:34 "And both of His wisdom and His knowledge of God! 45:37 How unsearchable are His," what? 45:39 "Are His judgments and His ways past finding out!" 45:43 You can't find out God. 45:45 You can't figure Him out because you're not big enough. 45:48 I'm not big enough. 45:49 We're not smart enough. 45:50 All the people in the world 45:52 has ever lived just not smart enough. 45:53 Put all the brains together, it's not a drop in a bucket. 45:55 Is it okay to say that? 45:57 It's not a drop in the bucket to God. 46:02 'Cause He tells us very clearly, it was Isaiah 55:9, 46:05 He says you know that, "Even my thoughts are higher 46:09 than your thoughts." 46:10 God lets us knows our position and we need to take 46:12 the position He's given us. 46:16 So God some time, you know, we got questions, why? 46:19 Why does God let evil continue? 46:21 Have you ever thought about that? 46:23 With the lighthouses, with the Bible 46:25 and all the light is shining down here, 46:27 why are we in the mess that we're in? 46:30 Remember the Book of Romans 13:1, this might 46:33 help us in some of the messes that's going on today. 46:36 We talk about, you know, building up different things, 46:38 we talk about defunding several things and so on. 46:41 We need to know here it says, "Let every soul..." 46:43 Romans 13:1, "Let every soul," notice this, 46:45 "be subject to the higher powers, 46:49 for there is no power but of," what? 46:51 "Of God." There's no power of God. 46:53 But notice how it brings in now. 46:55 He said the powers that be are ordained of God. 46:59 That means they're ordered, that's ordained, order of God. 47:03 The powers that be are ordained of God. 47:05 Other words, He allows these things to take place 47:07 because there is a purpose that we can't figure out. 47:11 Because I'd say get them out of office. 47:16 Can I say maniacs? 47:21 Some of these people what decisions they make you 47:23 think they're out of their mind. 47:27 I have to bow to the higher power. 47:31 Doesn't mean I won't object. 47:35 Don't means I won't raise a stink. 47:41 But we pray that there'll be points that we need. 47:43 Review and Herald, little article 47:45 I found here about paragraph long, 47:47 10:1, this is written in 1895. See how it might fit today. 47:52 It simply starts out, it said, rulers are God's servants. 47:54 Who is rulers? 47:56 Rulers are God's servants. 47:58 They're supposed to be. 48:02 They are to serve their time as His apprentices. 48:06 Because what they're serving time, 48:07 so they might be reelected now. 48:10 Popularity, go in a poor man, come out a rich man. 48:18 It's for their good that they are faithful to God. 48:23 They follow His plan. 48:25 And you know what His plan is? 48:26 It's a simple thus saith the Lord. 48:28 Now you'll hear this message, some of you won't make sense 48:31 at all because you're not on the page. 48:33 You're not going to get on the page, 48:34 I pray that you will get on the page, 48:36 because you can't sidestep a thus saith the Lord, 48:40 that's what we're going to be held 48:41 accountable for is a thus, this is what God has said. 48:45 He's not going to say this is what I said in My Word, 48:47 and you decide to go someplace else, come on in anyway. 48:52 He can't do that. 48:54 He's a God of mercy and grace, absolutely, 48:57 God of justice. 49:01 We need to keep the way of the Lord. 49:04 Our rulers today need to be men of morality, 49:07 they need to be men who will not be bought or sold. 49:10 And many are really trying to throw it out there seem 49:12 like are, you know, selling themselves. 49:15 Hypocrisy is rampart 49:19 in the world that we live in. 49:22 Every decision that you make and I make, 49:24 we need to keep this in mind, eternity. 49:28 Eternity in view. 49:32 Remember, every decision you make keep eternity in view. 49:35 Will keep you on the straight and narrow. 49:38 Remember, God permits evil to run its course. 49:42 And I think maybe this and you have maybe your own reasons, 49:47 your own thoughts on it. 49:48 But I believe that He lets it, you know, 49:51 He provides an example of how, 49:53 can I use the word foolish it is to go against 49:57 right principle and to go and fight against God. 50:00 You're fighting a losing battle when you fight against God. 50:03 You may think you've won in this life but there 50:05 is a world to come, there's a life to come. 50:08 What choice will you make? 50:09 What decision will I make? 50:12 You remember when God delivered 50:14 the Hebrews from Egypt? 50:18 God intervened and I believe He's intervening today, why? 50:23 If He didn't intervene at the time, 50:24 what would happen? 50:26 Is possible they're snuffed out as it were all 50:28 of God's people. 50:30 But God wasn't going to let that happen. 50:31 He's not going to let it happen today. 50:33 He has His faithful few, 50:35 and it's not those who are mickey mousing around, 50:37 can't make a decision for Christ, hum hauling around. 50:40 Come on now, you know what I'm talking about. 50:42 There's no use to make excuses about it right now. 50:44 He wants us right now to hold fast to Him right now. 50:52 Bottom line, whether God ordains, 50:55 whether God just permits, or whether God just intervenes, 51:00 we know this. 51:02 Patriarchs and Prophets 536 says this, notice this, 51:05 just a couple lines. 51:07 "The complicated play of human events 51:10 is under divine control." 51:13 Do you think it's not complicated 51:15 all the things that's going on in the universe right now? 51:17 All the people are here, right? 51:18 What, 7 billion, whatever it is, right now? 51:21 Remember, God knows everyone like there's not 51:23 anyone else on this planet. 51:26 That's too much for our mind. 51:27 Remember, He knows you specifically eyes on you 51:30 like there's no one else on this planet. 51:33 He's there to help you. 51:34 He's there to encourage you. 51:36 He's put people in your pathway. 51:37 People invite you to church, people who want to accept 51:40 Christ as a living Savior, so the heaven can be your home. 51:44 Remember, the complicated things that are going on is too 51:47 much for us, but it's not for God. 51:49 He's got it all worked out, He understands. 51:51 Prophets and Kings 535, 51:54 "An overruling purpose has manifestly been at work 51:57 throughout the ages." 51:59 Throughout the ages, and beginning of time, 52:00 God has been in control. 52:02 He said that there's any other gods, 52:04 I don't know who they are. 52:05 There's a lighthouse on the still 52:07 hilltop that overlooks life's sea, 52:09 sea of individual, sea of human beings, 52:12 and I've got an eye on you, 52:13 and I've got an eye so I can help you. 52:17 We, if we as a people, 52:21 we talk about those who even in the government 52:24 or control government, if they just do their job, 52:28 if you and I would just do our job, 52:30 and the government realized their job is to protect 52:34 and their job is to up build its people and its nation, 52:38 provide opportunity to fulfill the creator's purpose. 52:44 That's all of us, and also permit other people to what? 52:48 To fulfill, other nations to be free to choose and to do. 52:52 But all this we see now is choking the world down. 52:57 God would bless all nations, if we do. 53:00 Acts 17:27, just a couple minutes left, 53:02 notice, it said, they should, notice this, 53:05 you say, well, I don't know if God's close enough. 53:07 Acts 17:27, "They that should seek the Lord, notice, 53:11 if happily they might feel after Him, 53:14 they might go after Him, they're going to find Him, 53:17 though He be not far from every one of us." 53:20 The good news, what? 53:22 You seek Him, you're going to find Him. 53:23 He's not far from us. 53:24 You think He's out of sight, 53:26 you think He's out of mind somewhere in the other part 53:28 of the universe, you know, 46 billion trillion amount, 53:30 whatever the way, He's right there beside you. 53:33 He's there to help you. 53:34 If you realize over the time that you have lived 53:36 of the hundreds and maybe thousands 53:38 and thousands of time that He has protected 53:40 you from harm and danger and death. 53:43 The angels of heaven that are there surely 53:45 we can give him praise. 53:46 Okay, God, absolutely. 53:48 If you search for Him with all your heart, 53:50 you're going to find Him. 53:52 The light is shining, He sends out a light. 53:54 John 5:39 says, 53:57 you know, "Search the scriptures, 53:58 for in them you think you have," what? 54:01 "Eternal life: 54:02 and they are they which testify of me." 54:05 Search the scriptures right now. 54:08 Jeremiah 29:13, 54:10 and He said, "And you shall seek me, 54:13 and you shall find me, when you search for me with," what? 54:17 "With all your heart." 54:20 There's hope for this world. 54:23 But we need to get serious in these last days, hours, 54:26 months, whatever it might be of earth's history. 54:29 Think in terms of these are the last moments of earth, 54:32 don't say, "Oh, God's not 54:33 going to do this right now because of..." 54:35 No, I wish we had more time 54:37 we'd go into the Book of Jeremiah. 54:39 Ezekiel talks about the people said God's not going to come, 54:42 He's not going to do this neither, 54:43 God said that's going to be enough. 54:45 I'm going to come bring it out to pass right now. 54:47 And God's going to say that's enough people. 54:50 Quit playing church, it's time to get real, 54:52 it's time to get ready. 54:54 A nation if we want to be strong as a people, 54:56 we want to be strong. 54:57 Let's not forget God's purpose for us 54:59 because I say that there's the lighthouse on the hilltop 55:02 that overlooks life's sea. 55:04 When you're tossed about, 55:06 it sends out a light that I might see. 55:10 Let's pray, shall we? 55:13 Our kind, loving Heavenly Father, 55:14 we thank You for the privilege of prayer. 55:16 Thank You for Your love and Your mercy. 55:17 Thank You for that lighthouse. 55:19 Thank You for the Word of God. 55:20 Thank You for directions that You give to Your people. 55:22 Thankful for that watchful eye that You have 55:24 over us like there's no one else on this planet, 55:26 for people that made that decision for you 55:28 right now in Jesus' name. 55:29 Amen. 55:31 And we thank God for each and every one of you 55:33 and those who study with us from week to week. 55:35 Again, thank you for your cards, your letter 55:37 and your support of the ministry. 55:38 We look forward everything. 55:40 Behold the Lamb here spending time with you every week. 55:42 God bless you. We'll see you next time. 55:45 Hello and welcome back, friends. 55:47 One of my favorite Bible verses is found in the Book of Isaiah 55:51 41:10, where we can all read this beautiful promise, 55:56 "Fear thou not, for I am with thee: 55:58 be not dismayed, for I am thy God: 56:01 I will strengthen thee, yea, I will help thee, yea, 56:05 I will uphold thee with the right hand 56:07 of my righteousness." 56:09 And shining our paths with that precious light of Christ 56:13 is certainly a way in which God teaches us not to fear, 56:18 but to trust in Him fully. 56:20 These are rapidly changing times in which we are all 56:23 living in. 56:25 Christ, praise the Lord, Christ is the light 56:27 of the world, and we need a living connection 56:30 with Him as never before. 56:32 Christ is shining His light in our darkened world, 56:36 in your darkened world, 56:38 we must only trust and believe in His light. 56:42 You know, as I was preparing this message, 56:44 this closing, those words came to me. 56:46 I hadn't even planned to write them down, 56:49 but how important they are that we trust 56:52 and believe in His light. 56:54 So, friends, if this is a message that you 56:56 would love to add to your study library, 56:59 you should know by now that we are more 57:01 than willing to send you your very own copy of, 57:05 Thank God for the Lighthouse. 57:07 And never forget that we are fully dependent 57:09 upon your giving as the Lord leads in your heart to support 57:13 Behold the Lamb Ministries. 57:15 Therefore, every order that you place, 57:18 every time you call and give a donation, 57:20 it blesses us both. 57:22 Simply call us here in the United States 57:25 at (618) 942-5044, 57:28 that's Central Time, 57:30 or you may also mail in your request to Behold 57:33 the Lamb Ministries, PO Box 2030, Herrin, 57:37 Illinois 62948. 57:40 You may email us 57:42 at contact- @beholdthelambministries.com 57:46 or visit us on our website at beholdthelambministries.com. 57:51 Friends, until next time, may our precious Lord 57:54 continue to richly bless you and yours. |
