Welcome to track number. 12 of Senor Epitier. Lord, have mercy. 10 Steps How a spiritual son can develop into a shepherd Do you have the book? Super Developer 33 No. We have out of Shepherd. I gave you 22 steps. Go. Into the book, Chapter 32. Have you seen the 22? Stages there. All. The 22 stages are there easy, it's in the book I gave you already but. You didn't know it was in the book. What a shock. How a spiritual son can develop into a shepherd. So just put your book away and then write your notes. You see that it's already. There should. Have read it already. Just put your book away. You got it there, right? OK. There are not. The only ones who didn't know it was Adam Shepherd. But did you know it was Adam Shepherd? Right now, for this 'cause I have sent you, Timothy is my beloved son. And. I'm going to preach the same thing 900 more times. Yes, I sent you Timothy, who is my beloved son. Is the best example of some son who became a pastor. When you are a son, because you are forever because you resemble your. Father. Because you trust your. Father. You can be developed into almost anything you understand. You can be developed into almost anything, but when you are not a son, nobody can be angry with. You nobody can. Blast you. Everybody has to be careful. With. You. Maybe we will offend you. Maybe we will antagonize you. And. You will suddenly. Leave. So we only praise you, say thank you. Thank you Shanda for your smile but we never blast you afraid of you because you are not a son, daughter from today. And a real daughter when you are blasted. Must. Continue to smile, otherwise you will be blasted again. So #1 you must have a teachable spirit. Of a. Son Amen. Timothy had that. Timothy is the best example. Timothy. How Timothy became a pastor. Come on, Timothy is a new. Pastor. He was teachable. Second Timothy, chapter 3, verse 14. It. Says continue thou. City Creek. In the things which thou has learned. That you are a priest. And has been assured of. A don't knowing of. Whom thou hast learned, them you must continue. Continuing. In the things only shows which you learned. That you are priests. Knowing of whom you have. Learned Amen. Amen. So to become a. Pastor. You must learn. A. Lot people stop learning is so sad. It's a 10 more. Trees, people. Stop learning. I have seen in many short sighted Suns that I have. They stop learning. They think that fatherhood of being a son is about getting a portion. And I'm. Done with you. Is it? Not sad. But. Not knowing his messes. Every morning. I told you the story tree had a little boy tree. Tree. The tree loved the little boy. Love to. Climb all over the tree. Play under the tree he grew up. And. Stopped coming to the tree one day and he was a little. Boy. He came to. The tree again trees and. The tree said I'll have some mangoes. And sell them and get money. The boy was happy. Then he didn't come back to. The tree for a long time. In one day he came back after. He had grown up. I need a house time to play with toys. And make. House. I want to. Get. A. Boat have my trunk. Cut. Off my truck. And. Have. Make a boat. And he made. A. Built a boat and he went and. I don't even have teeth. Just. Need. To rest. You. Can sit in my. It should. Be. The best place for me to. Enjoy the rest and. One day when? He died. He was. Buried. This is how fathers. Are you? Think you finish with that. Jesus. He gave the knife hand 1. 2nd. You see now? So, Len, don't stop Lenny. Don't start. In recent times. This summer. I have learned more from Kenneth. Higgins. So much more from Kenneth that has amazed. Me. There is a certain. Brother in America, he blessed me with a lot of Kenneth Higgins, his family. His children be good. Children. But through these. Videos. I've learned so much more, hey. I've heard Papa telling stories. One day I was listening to a message, one of the last messages before he died. Fantastic. You always think what there is. It's a demon, I said. It's a demon that speaks like. That. I know you. I know all about. You I know what? You say I know what you say at the beginning. And I know why. I know even the. Stories. That is why in my book tomorrow I will give you a copy of that as well, Father said. Loyalty. You. Will see, you will see all these are in that book because as I have been doing teaching these things. This is the reason. #2 you must have a flowing attitude. Whatever you have one and attitude the the fisky swillo flow. Amen, Amen, he said. For I have no man like minded. Who? Will naturally care. Everyone. Said naturally. Care. Naturally care. Congrats when? You are doing something artificially. Those Buffet chose the mania artificial it's. Different from when you are doing it naturally. So different the lawsuit will affect natural more. If I have to teach you how to smile. See your dog was a pound as to read. For a long time. On a long time. You are now. Would it not have been? Natural please. Slow and they say this you are. Flowing make your face don't. Like what is happening? Don't like what is going on flowing? What a. Shock. SH demonstrate a caring attitude. Demonstrate an attitude a month. A son's eyes are full of love the the. Feast a plan, the more a the bienvenance. For his. Father, he said. I. Have no mind. Eddie Gennie. Who would? Care. I have found my experience. I don't know much, but what I've seen, I've found that not many people care for me as I care for them. I have found. That. People. Not really. Care about your problem. Problem people care. More about their toothache. So please concern Maladon. Your cancer do. You understand what cancer. Like maybe you have cancer. The. Person has a toothache. You would. Have thought that the person would be concerned about your. Is a serious. Problem. Is concerned about his toothache. And he does care. About whether you are dying, True, This is how people. Are we? That is why pastors. They are. Raising funds. They often have stopped. Telling the truth. They have. Stopped telling the. Truth. They just say. It is. God is going to give you 21 blessings. Do you ever to donate benzene benediction? When you get 21. CDs since you done. From Psalm 21. Party the song when? You see a new. Light. Shining in Your Life Tonight's offering in 20. One days. They need money pay for the fuel. For the bus is. Why we are taking? The offering. But. People don't care about. Whether the camp cost extra. Whether the church needs money, your cancer, they care more about their safety. So you will discover my. Experience. A Tonko pastor. A very few people. If you pepper the person, look at me with love eyes, I. Have a lot of sons. That I'm talking about do. You know how to sing that song because. You say Shante. Yeah. I don't want to sing. Do you understand? What I. Mean the person is looking at you with. Care. I don't mean that you are carrying something somebody wants. To carry. Because everybody has a problem. That's a problem. Everybody has a. Difficulty Difficulty one day. I saw somebody. You can. Explain a problem problem. I regretted sharing that problem. With the person. I realized. That my problem. That I. Have not thought about. It. A problem problem. For you to. Help. That's my experience. They don't care, but I'm telling you. What are the experiences? I wake up in the morning and look into the mirror. The same old face is staring back at me. Then I cry, 'cause I don't seem to get any mirror to the person I wish I could be. And so I look into your love eyes. You. See me through your love eyes and beauty is what you see in me because you wash me with those tears falling from your. All the people sees the part of me that show when they figure that's the way I'll always be old. But you look ahead to the day I'm full grown and there's nothing but beauty and me. And so I look into your love eyes. You see me through your love eyes, and beauty is what you see in me, 'cause you wash thee with those tears falling from your love eyes. I've heard it said that love is blind, but I know that just and true because love can leave the past behind. Lord, I want to live like you, and so I look into your love eyes. You see me through your love eyes and beauty is what you see in me because you wash me with those tears falling from your love eyes and so I look into your love. Your love eyes, your love eyes, your love eyes, your love eyes, your love eyes, your love eyes. You washed you with those fears falling across your love eyes. And so I look into your love eyes eyes. You see me through your love eyes. And beauty is what you see in me, because you wash me with those tears falling from your love eyes. So I look into your love eyes. You see me through your love eyes, eyes and beauty is. When you. See me because you washed me with those tears falling from your love eyes, your love eyes, your love. Eyes are. Eyes of care you care for. Most people care for their husbands. And. Women, especially, they care for. Their. Children they replace their husbands picture with. The child. And and it is when they are looking at their children from. Their. Own children. One day I saw somebody reacting to the child. I don't know whether the child was beaten or I don't know what. Happened. The church or the school or something You see, the person's self came you. Know what? You don't see people having love eyes, Somebody else, somebody elses child, somebody elses family. Some other. Ship with not in any black. Relation the song. But to be a real pastor, this is how you must be. Many. Many years ago ahead be there is that somebody told him when he was becoming a pastor. Be there for your people and they will be there for you one day. One day they will be. There for you. Yeah, but people don't care for people and and so one of the things I say like here is somebody. And. You are also. Separate. You care for the. Person, especially women, if. There are ladies. 1 does not have a child and the others have a child. Those. Who have a child so. What I've seen. What I've read don't care about the. 1. This one has a. And in my experience, when I look at people looking at. Me. People will respect me. The person. Who care for me? That's what I've seen. I'm not claiming to be right describing what I've seen. And usually a Suva if you are a pastor. Sit you a pastor? A man. A norm. May have more care a lot of people. Than. The woman, the wife of the pastor, the. Pham you pastor? So if you are a man. Pastor if you follow. A wife. 'S. Scope or latitude. The latitude of. Ability to care. The ministry will be. Small. 123. And this guy to. Go out. You're too beautiful. OK, come back. Come back. The church would have had more members look. At all of them. That's why the Bible says if you do not have your own house under. Control. You see, when we talk of natural care, everybody must watch. Animals. Animal. One day I was watching some. And they were crossing the. River The. River was full of. Crocodile. The crocodile. They came. Out. Of course A. Smaller, not a bigger size. They were. Trying to bring their. Children, they say the. Most of them came in there, cannot get a smaller one. Will do fight buffaloes. In the men. Which are eaten by lions. Buffalo. Chasing a lion. How to care? There is danger. There is. No. Danger when I. Say that. I haven't. Seen it not. The. One that you read in notes. Yeah, all the animals are like. That 2 less animals on come Sir. All of them. 2A Penguin. Penguin will. Give birth. Keep a metromon 1 egg metromon enough. And stand with the egg enough on the. Feet in. The winter minus. 40 degrees. For weeks, that film is called The Care of the Egg. You see the Eagles. Fly with it and. Bring the meat. That's what I mean by natural. That is the from. Timothy I have not seen. Any of my. Followers naturally cares. For people members who are not. Relatives. One day I met a pastor. He told me that. He was a pastor. I didn't. Say he was a. So as I was moving with. Him. He took me to some of his from this member. This member, the people that he was. Caring for. All. Your members are relatives, my brother. Welfare or a sister, Sir? Not even one. Relatives in Nepal. And he really cares. For them, a people in swindle. Yeah, we one day he. Traveled. Far and went and. Found a certain sister. In a. Terrible. Condition. And brought her to. Christ. Very, very difficult conditions. So the condition. I was amazed. At his love once again. It was a cousin. Cuisine. You understand? Family eyes. It's got a family eyes. Family. Yeah. So when Paul said that I don't apart from if I was writing and I was writing names, I also write apart from this and this are not many people who naturally care. When? I look at somebody. Like Bishop? One of the things that convinced me that I should give. The everybody 's house. I don't see. Relatives around. Are you listening? To me. #4 You must demonstrate attitude of a son. Latitude Dufis servitor. Amen. What is a son? Quietorfis. Philippians, Chapter 2. Philippian du. Verse 20. 1. It says. ILDI iliticry. It says. Iliticry. For all seek their own.

I recently came from India in a mighty and powerful one of the largest edges I have ever. Seen. And I was blessed. The. Pastor had two sons. Pastor have dufis. And the two. Sons. The pastor are also pastors. So see the pastor. In the church. With him. Downstairs they have Indian speaking church. He's only cute on and. They have English. And they? Have different looking even. So is your name Lasper? Is it different, Luis? Serving the Father. Luis. Naturally. Natural. But there are 90 other pastors. Caco Vendis old pastor. So you cannot be maybe biological son, but Ahmed, I've told you are a son who? Who? But that's when a paraphysiologic may felt conceive. I thought.

You that you must. Relate with. Her as. Though she was your mother. Amen, Amen are. You listening to? Me. One day I had a son, but he had a pastor who was a father, and he was gone into. So when it reached the critical stage. I. Called the. Pastor. Who had brought him? Up just like. How Doris is bringing. You up, just come. One day you get high. Fever and you start behaving disloyalty to. Talk to you because she's the last resort. Are. You understanding? As a father. With a son as a child, one day my mother called. Me. To talk about something. I had decided. I will. Never talk about it. Because I knew that I should never talk about it when she called. Me. I was now do you know what is ambush is a sudden, unexpected. By my. Mother's request, she said. Come. And. She said talk, but you see you, your mother tells. You last result I did.

Your boy, I call him, I said. Buy a. Ticket, I call him. 8:00 in. The morning. That was my last. Result. Amen. And it didn't work. Amen. You got to be loyal. Loyalty. Loyalty and this. Loyalty. Amen.

Amen #7 You must demonstrate a childlike attitude. You demonstrate latitude. He said. A child as a. Son with a father. And tell 1/5 Avexon pere. A child with a father a. 5th Avexon, Pere. Is a child and you must ensure. You. Behave like a child. It's a comport. Grown-ups are. And suspicious. But when you are a son, have a child like attitude, you must demonstrate your sonship by ensuring that your father 's work is continued minister of God to establish you comfort. You concerning your faith. After Paul had preached, it was Timothy who came to establish Paul was doing so. That is how what Doctor Go has been doing. Famine. What I'm saying Amen and many. People are famine these. Same words. Because. These are good words, the words in this book. Good words, good words. And they must be affirmed. A. Lot of Timothy's. Are. Going to go out and establish in Congo or Congo in Benin, in Togo, Togo, in Cordova, in Senegal. In Mali, Mali establish this same. Word Establish your work if you are not a son instead. Of. Establishing your. Father started try to. Start your own work. Those two sons that I saw in. India. Do you think that if their father is not there, they will now abandoned the work that their father? Has been abandoned rather. Try to establish what he started and what he started building. So if you are. Really. Sons of this. House we have started. To work in the Francophone country, we. Have started to have. Camps with you threatening the Kodesh. To. Ask them to clear from the main church. Because the pharcophones are growing bigger to fill the role of the Jesus Cathedral. I want a shock. Shock. And would you not like to continue this work? And establish it so. That the francophone from Brazzaville to to to, to to Gabon. Gabon to Congo to Cameroon to Burundi, Rwanda, all of them. My father was. Teaching to establish. What he was. Teaching. To write this book, how long will it take you to write this? Book. How long will it take you to write this? Why don't you just make it your aim to go and? Establish this. Which new words again do you have? You are an original. You are an. Original. There is nothing new. Let. Me tell you something, you know, We have reached a place. I am. To learn how to speak. French by the. Time I can quarrel in. French, maybe in my 60s. I don't have time to practice French enough. I see. I am depending. On you. I will not even understand what you are. Saying but. You need to understand when you have a real son, go and get this. When you. Have a real. Son, is it not true? You trust So what you. Are saying is the truth celebrate. One day I went to a certain country. And I was. Speaking a certain. Language it. Was not French, but another language. Every time. I had an interpreter. He was not a son. So sometimes says something. What are the people? What did the? What are they say? Is I'll. Be back, I'll be back. This is what we are going to do. We are. Going here, We are going here, we are going here. What is? Happening one day. I was, he said. He called me, he said. We. Are going to the senator's house. Senator in that country. So we went to the senator. 'S Are you sure he's a senator? Senator. I've never seen such a. So, he said. You wait, I've got to find. Out. When I sat in the senator's. Me with a plantain. And. Other delicacies and I tell you I was. Eating my later I. Had about two years later. The. Senator was dead. What happened to the? Senator. Oh, he said. I found out the senator. Senator, the drug. Dealer, the senator. Why didn't you tell me I was working? On it I was. You don't have your own. Son, for you, you don't. Know what he is saying? Senator. Senator of this town. Senator. Inviting you for dinner? What a shock. Whose words are these? Are you there? So look at that verse again. And I. Thank you, Timothy. Timothy. Our brother not. Friend. Minister of God, our fellow Labra. Companion. To establish you and to comfort you concerning your faith. It's only a real Son who can establish you. Amen, Amen. Amen. Hey, hey #9 you must. Demonstrate your. Sonship by ensuring that. You establish the that the words of your Father are obeyed, that the teachings of your Father. Jesus came to say the words of the Father. When I went to Macedonia. Now my test child some that they teach no other doctrine. I ensure my son I. Don't teach other things doctrines. Doctrines. And in second. Timothy, Chapter 2. He said. Iladi. The things that thou has heard of me. Among many witnesses. To faithful. Man. Who shall be able to teach? All you see. It is only your son. You can tell him what I taught you. Teach. It to. Others the same. Thing the same thing if you are not my son. Tell me. That I am. Operating a couch you. Tell me that I am not allowing the teachings of God. Only. One man's teaching, that's what you would tell. Me. That's why I wouldn't tell you that. You are. Not my son. But when? I see my own. Son when? I see my own son, I would tell. Him that what I taught you did the. Same thing. If you are. Not my son. I won't give you that instruction. I'll tell you. Preach. The Word of God. All aspects of the Word of God you can find anywhere if I've written. Anything. That is helpful. When I don't see my son, you think when I go to a church somewhere which is not. My, I tell them. That it is what I have taught them. You think I have ever said? Anything you take me. To be an. Idiot. I. Can tell them what? I. Told you about my daughter in the church to say to all church members. Begin drinking wine from people. What kind? Of. Problem am I bringing? Misinterpret the whole thing. We exclude some people. Go and say it somewhere, one day, a certain brother. A certain friend. He was a rich man. And. He came to see me, he said. I want you to know. Could you sash that I? Drink in this church. So I was quiet. I was. What should I do? And he said. It is. Based on the. Scripture and that's what I'm doing. The teachers, what a mighty warfare, desire to be a Bishop. All the things he told. Timothy. Be strong in the Lord. And then? When it came to the private part and you? Remember your stomach problem? I've had an idea, maybe wine can solve it. So try some wine. It's between me and you. I've read Proverbs. And that's. The only one you've taken. See. That is why we don't say some things. That's. Why I'm telling you. What? I wrote in the book, did the same thing. Give me AU. I tell you, it is wonderful. I tell. You. #10. This. Demonstrate your sonship by having the same level of zeal as your father. Title Chapter 2 There's 15 these things. This is sure and exhaust it exhausts rebuke rapport with. All of. Our authorities. Hallelujah. Amen. Let no man. Despise you. Amen. You need to have the same passion. The same. Authority and the same. Way. The same way. As your father, one day I went to a certain church. And. The pastor had. Children, the Father had great zeal pastor, but the Son even. Though he was working, did not have that. Zeal. So even though he was. A pastor he did. Not have the same. Zeal. After some. Years they. Transferred him. To. The video department. And. He was now a technician. Technician. Why? Because he did not have the same. Zeal that had given. Hallelujah, are you listening to me? How many are going to have the same zeal as? I'm. Not saying that being a video man is not a good thing. Videoing. Video the. Video man. The video. I'm not saying. That. Is not. Important, but you. See, I've gone a. Bit further if you are really. You will do more than video.
