Welcome to track #9 of Why are you not a missionary? You have someone who is an advocate trying to save the person. So when you send as a missionary, you are. When you're sent as a missionary to Chile or you're sent as a missionary to Paraguay, you're trying. God has sent. You as a lawyer? Wow. She's trying to save those people. Isn't it not fantastic? Hey, how important you are? How many have realized that you are very, very important? How many do you know that you were so important? How many realize that when you don't go, some people will never have a lawyer? And they'll just be. Sentenced freely to death, to death, to death, to death, to death, to death to death. To death, all of them. Sentenced to death because their lawyer never came. The lawyer didn't. Come to courts. If the lawyer. Had come he would. Have said 3 words. You know that. Lawyer who? Defended OJ Simpson. Yeah, that guy. Apparently, you know, he made himself. A defender of black. People like this, you know, a lot of young black men in prison, all kinds of crimes and so on. And also they're. Probably also being. Cheated some of them, but whatever it is. He made himself. And being an advocate for these kind of people. So when there's a case that he. Goes and he fights. The case fully you see. So when J. Simpson's thing came up and he went there. And it's like if a person. Doesn't come, you get it. It's like they'll just say some words. I mean, they'll say something, something, something They they're not finished. No. So what does it mean? It means you're being sentenced to them. Are you sure you're pleaded guilty by mistaken. They said are you going to say I'm guilty? You you said something. I the lawyer. The lawyer said no, don't say that. You can't say that when you say that it's going. To make things worse. Don't talk, I'll speak. Oh, that is that. Is where we have what There's a film called Schindler's List. There was a man, a German man, who was trying to. Help the Jews. And he kept, you know, doing things to save them one by one, one by one. So you see, you are the lawyer that God has sent, has employed and you won't go to at the Eluya serious, too serious, a lawyer who doesn't show up. One day my father was employed was was defending a murderer. Oh well, somebody was accused of committing murder and. Bishop. Saki and my wife were also the lawyers helping my father. They were working with my father at that time. Now one day the man was in a farm famine and then somebody attacked him and he used his cutlass to fight the person. That's what he says. And then the cutlass slides the stomach and all the intestines came out. So the man died in the farm and the man ran away. So anyway he was, they were in court and they were fighting. But I asked my wife, you know, one day that how did my father become. A lawyer. For such. A person, I mean. How would you? Because my father was one of the top lawyers and I'm sure that he was an expensive person to have as a lawyer. So I asked him. How does such? Like a farmer like this because my father was doing cases for big, big companies. In fact, the. Car that he bought me, it was that he just told that one of the company that he was working. Forgive me a car as part of his friend give me anything he answered. They just bring so they gave him a car. And then I, I, I, I, I enjoyed the car. I tell you so. So my, my problem or my question was that how did somebody like my father become a lawyer for this farmer? And she she told me that the state chooses some lawyers when there is a case and you know, the person needs a defender, then the state will choose somebody, some of the prime. And it is almost like something that you have, you have to do, but it's not really for money, but it's like a duty that is like you're a lawyer. And then if it's like there's no one to defend these poor people or some of these. Cases so they. Choose certain lawyers, permanent lawyers or whatever and they give them that work, that look you are supposed to and it's either prestigious or if you're supposed to do it. So that's how can he even became involved in such a case, Do you see? So now you see, God has chosen somebody like you when there's no. Lawyer. No advocate. And he's chosen you that will be an advocate. For this island. Wow. Then you sit back and you say, Lord, there are. Certain things that I'm working on and if you wouldn't mind, please see me next year. Around the same. Time. I'll be I'll. Sort out some things between now and next year and I'll see you then. Oh Lord. By the time you finish. Sorting out SO. Many people have been sentenced to death because to be. A missionary means to be an. I didn't say it it. Is in the dictionary. It means to. Be an advocate. Wow. Are you there? You've gone home. How many did I say I was going to? Give you. 23 ways to become a missionary #16 if you say someone is a missionary, it means he is a.
