Isaiah 14, verse 17 Who has made this world a wilderness and destroyed the cities thereof that opened up the House of his prisoners? So this is a wilderness, this is not your home.

I am the owner of the points and I'm sharing them with their numbers #3 this world is not your home. It is a wilderness. That's number three. OK, the the first one that I gave you is #3 this world is not your home. It is a wilderness. Are you there #4 This world is not your home. It is greatly inferior to what God has planned for you. You get that? Number 2. This world is not your home. It is a place to learn about God. It is a place to learn about God from the things that have been created. Amen. This world. If this world is not your home, then what is it? What is this world? It is a wilderness. It is very inferior to where God has a plan for you to be. And it is a place to learn about God, This world. There's a lot you can learn about God. OK, are you there? Are you there now? Romans chapter one, verse 20. Hey, Romans chapter one, verse Romans Romans chapter one verse 20 for the invisible, invisible things about God The invisible things about God huh of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen. Wow being understood, you can understand things by the things that are made wow, even his eternal power and Godhead so that they are without excuse. So for the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made. So this world is a place where we can learn about the invisible things of God by the things that are made. OK, so there are things that are not in the Bible that we are supposed to learn from creation. Can you understand that from the Scripture? Should I read it again so that if you didn't get it, you get it a second time? For the invisible things of Him. Are you there? What are the invisible things like? Unseen things, Things that are not written, things that are not said or clear. OK, invisible things, unseen things. OK, have Him are what? Huh. From the creation of the world you see are clearly seen or are seen from the creation of the world OK being understood or things are understood by the things that are made. So you can understand a lot of things about God by the things that are created, created. Are you listening to me? Wow. Now for His invisible attributes, namely His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made so that they are without excuse. This is a vest you have to use when you are witnessing to people who talk about what about those who never heard the gospel of Jesus Christ? How will they be saved? This is the vest we use for that, to answer that people learn about God by the invisible things that are seen are made. Are you listening to me, Romans? I'm reading it from the Amplified Bible. For ever since the creation of the world, listen, just listen, Listen. I'm reading the Amplified Bible. Ever since the creation of the world, His invisible nature and attributes, that is, His eternal power and divinity, have been made intelligible and clearly discernible in and through the things that have been made His handiworks. So men are without excuse altogether, without any defense or justification, because when they knew and recognized Him as God, they did not honor and glorify Him as God, nor give Him thanks, but instead they became futile and godless in their thinking. Amen. So a lot of things can be learned about God from the creation. Amen. Wow, are you excited about that? I'm going to read it from the Message Bible. By taking a long and thoughtful look at God, at what God has created, people have always been able to see what their eyes as such can't see. Eternal power, for instance, and the mystery of His divine being, so nobody has an excuse. That's the message Bible. By taking a long and thoughtful look at what God has created, people have always been able to see what their eyes as such can't see. Eternal power, for instance, and the mystery of His divine being, so nobody has a good excuse. Amen. Are you there? So take a long and thoughtful look at what God has created in this world and learn about God. Let me give you 1 easy example. When you look at animals, you can learn a lot. Isn't it? All wise people talk about animals, isn't it? Now let's take the problem of homosexuality, which is something that is happening in the world whether you you see it or not, it exists, and it exists sometimes amongst us in secret. You get it now by looking at creation. Taking a long and thoughtful look at creation, it will help you to conclude what Recently the Royal College of psychiatrists in the UK have come to the same conclusion that nobody is born a homosexual. The Royal College of Psychiatrists in the UK have come out clearly to say that no human being is born homosexual. And by taking a long and thoughtful look at, forget about the Royal College of Whatnot, you look at creation, which 2 male cows stay together, Never. 2 male cats, 2 male dogs, two female dogs, two female snakes, No, nothing like that. So that should show you that from creation that that is not normal. You get it. So you gotta be careful with that. Don't joke with it in your mind. Don't allow your mind to think that maybe I'm like that because every man has female paths, every man has female hormones and every woman has male hormones. Did you know that? Yeah, you have, we have some estrogens and we also have testosterone. So the males have the females, all ladies have testosterone. So if I'm, if I'm doing some investigations on you and trying to find about certain things, I may check your testosterone as a lady, which is a male hormone because you have it. So you may have a little more, somebody may have a little less. Some ladies bodies are harder. Yeah. And some are soft. It depends. You get what I'm trying to say. There's slight barrier. Some have bigger stomachs, smaller stomachs, fatter legs, slimmer legs, browner, red, blue-green eyes even. It doesn't make you a cat if your eyes are blue or green. I think my mother has blue eyes. Yeah. Doesn't make you a cat if you have green eyes. There are. There's a range which is normal. Doesn't change you into an animal. Are you there? So some boys have softer bodies, some have harder. Are you there? Some girls have softer bodies, some have harder, some boys have breasts, some boys have nice little breasts and some have some boys have no breasts and girls have different types ranges of breasts. OK, are you listening? So I'm saying this because people you you may even you may have somebody may have approached you before. How many have had somebody approach you before? Like boy. Boy approaching a boy. Yeah. Secondary school girl to girl. Come on, You see, you look at me as if you don't understand what I'm talking about. You, if I understand, President, raise your hand. Yes, you be approached. It is quite common to be approached. That's why I say that you will think that it does not exist. But I'm explaining to you because somebody may look at you and then because somebody approaches you, you feel that, oh, I am like more like a girl. You get what I'm saying? But I'm explaining to you medically. Listen to what I'm saying. Don't think it as a joke. It's not a joke. It's a serious thing. And it can even happen to your child. You can give birth to some a child and somebody would tell the child you're a girl that you have to learn, you have to learn you. And they are teaching it in, in, in England now, I think, or Switzerland that you, you grow up and you, you may either be somebody who has sex with boys or with girls, depending on your orientation. They are teaching it and people believe it. So when you believe it, you have that desire. But when you look at creation, you cannot see 2 male lions, 2 male cats, 2 male giraffes, 2 male, anything that is 2 male. There's nothing like that in Creation. What about oral sex? In creation you see animals the male going to put his mouth or nose into the female pets. You haven't seen it before. Have you seen it before? Yes. Why are you so quiet? I'm saying that from creation you can learn things. Yeah, but some people don't believe in oral sex. They say that if you have oral when you come to the house, don't use their tea cup, but don't use their grass. Yeah, but what what I'm saying, SH, listen to me. I'm explaining to you that creation is a good place to learn a whole lot of things. Creation is a good. Just go to the creation and learn a lot about God. Another thing you learn from creation is that sex is is sex is it's. There is nothing more unusual about having sex than whi whing or poo pooing or passing gas and that there is nothing to be ashamed about it. You look again at the creation. None of the creation. Do it in secret. None of the creations. Next time you come, you may see some horses here. Next time you come, you may see some antelopes. Yeah, and I'm bringing them so that you can watch them. You see, Daddy said we should watch these animals. We'll learn something from them. Yeah. Then you'll also realize that there is no part of your body that is evil or sinful. You'll see the cows swishing, their tails moving. There's no part that this is a bad place. That's a bad place. This is as we have maybe to be as human beings. That it was. When sin entered into us that we started to say this place is bad. Oh, we started to cover it. So there's a lot we can learn from creation. And so when you realize that you yourself are an animal, you realize that, wow, I need these things. Not that I Because blind people have sex they have not seen before. They have sex. They have children. They don't watch films. They don't see anything. But there's something within them that makes them know what they need. Yeah. Is it not amazing? Yeah. Then courting, if you watch beds, you will learn a lot about how to attract a partner, how to attract a partner. You'll see the different beds, the female or the male. Sometimes the male will spread different colors making special noises. They learn every noise special and they they attract a partner in the forest. I've got some a film called Special Wildlife Moments. You see a bird in the middle of a forest playing every sound you can imagine that it has had before to attract partners. So you must know that a partner is attracting you. That's why in the camp, he's is playing callous, she's playing callous, or he's playing callous and sounds wow. Just like it is done by the birds. But one bird I saw, the bird had heard a chainsaw before you, you watch the bed, it will do some dance alone, standing alone in the middle to do a dance. Then it will sing different sounds are different. Then play a music. Then it will do the chainsaw. Then it has a camera before they do crack break, I mean. And so others will be attracted. It's the same way the sisters will do the hang. She's calling. Wow. She pulled a bag and she was smiling. She's calling somebody to do the news. You are just like a badge. Yeah. Are you listening to me? Oh, yeah. And then you will learn because some of you, all you know about sex is that it's a sin. Just do it as a sin. Some people who have very experience in the world, when they get married and they see what they have been seen in the place of sin, they become immobilized. They look at it and say, am I, I'm going to do something bad and say, Oh, no, there's nothing wrong. But they know it only as an evil thing. Yeah. So you see, even the way people hug, you can tell the amount of evil in the person from the hugging methods. Yeah. The consciousness, I'm conscious that I'm doing something. See them hugging away. See, by observation, this is what I've seen under the sun. Yeah, I can learn a lot by just watching people hack when they meet Hag in a way. That's that's if I can keep watching. Keep watching. Amen. Wow. So this place is a place to learn a lot about God. You can learn a lot about serpents, about about God and wisdom and serpents. That's why Jesus said be you wise as serpents, harmless as doves. I mean, who said that? Jesus And he had watched doves and said, oh, it's harmless. They don't do anything. Then he watched serpents and he realized that these serpents are wise. Be you wise as serpents, harmless as dove. We have a song like that. If you're not harmless as dogs, you will never, never, never make it. And if you're not wise as a serpent, you will never live. Never make it, Jesus said. I give you power, the power of God, so you can cast out devils. And as you go, you gotta preach my word. Preach about the Kingdom, the Kingdom of heaven. All heal the sea and clench all the leopards, raise the dead freely you'll receive, freely give it. You're not harmless as does. You will never, never, never make it. And if you're not wise as usurper, you will never, never, never make it. If any man come unto me and hate not his father and his mother and his beautiful beloved you, and hate not his children, brothers and sisters, and his own self, he cannot be my disciple. Go with her to me. Come after me and hit not hisself. He cannot be mighty stripper. If you're not harmless and stuffs, you will never never make it. And if you're not wise as a suffer, you will never never never make it even. Don't think about the money. It's just silver and gold. You don't even have to have two coats. I will provide for you. A serpent cannot be greater than his master, so try to be like me. If they called me Beelzebub, you can expect trouble too. But if any man receives you, he receives me too. If you lose your life for me, you will definitely find your life again. If you're not homeless, you will never, never make it. And if you're not wise as a surfer, you will never, never make it. If you're not homeless as God, you will never, never make it. Oh, oh, and if you're not wise. As a serpent. You will never, never make it oh, 00. All right, glory to God, you guys are doing a great job. If this world is not my home, what is it? It is what #1 number, number, number, number #1 #3 is what? It's a what? It's a well done. It's a wild place, isn't it #4? It is what greatly inferior what God has planned #2 if this world is not your home, it's a place, how many realize you're going to learn about God? That's why we must have trees green. When you come here, you feel the atmosphere is different, isn't it? Yeah, because you learn more about God when you see trees. I'll tell you something. You know, another thing you can learn about God by seeing a tree is that there is no straight line. There's nothing straight. Yeah, there is nothing in creation that is straight, whether it's a leaf, a tree, a branch, or the ground, the sands, nothing is straight in creation. And who can make that straight which He has made crooked? You can learn a lot by thinking about that. You cannot straighten what God has made crooked. So when you get her beloved, you are trying to turn her into something also not tenable. You can't straighten the tree, even the ground. Wow. Finally, number one, if this world is not my home, then what is it? It is my mission field. Go ye into all the world and do what? Go ye into all the where? Go into the where the world. Go ye to the world and preach the gospel. Is there a song like that? Go ye into all the world. What song is that? Go ye all the the wedding in vain. Go sing that part for me. Go into all the world and preach the gospel until your life is done. If you love me, obey the Great Commission and build churches everywhere in in every town, every province, every city, Africa shall be saved. Tell me, how long is it going to take? How long is it going to take? For us to realize that the world is our. Mission Field. Go ye. Go into the world and preach the gospel until your life is done, and if you love me, obey the Great Commission. If you build. Churches everywhere. Build churches everywhere. In every town, every province and every city, Africa shall be saved. Tell me, how long is it going to take? How long is it going to take for you to rest for you? To open. Meanwhile, it's not your home, but it's your mission field. I have been feeling that I'm waiting in vain for you to do my way, and I have a feeling that I'm waiting in vain. Is the feeling right? For you. To God waiting in vain. So am I gonna wait in vain for your love? That Am I gonna wait in vain for your love? Am I gonna wait in vain for your love? Am I gonna wait in vain for your love? Now, this world is not my home. I'm just passing through now. One day an American evangelist came to Ghana. When he came to Ghana, I met him at the airport and took him to his hotel. I showed him all the conveniences and luxuries that we had there, and I suggested to him that he should take his rest and enjoy the wonderful surroundings. And he just sort of made a little snigger. Do you understand? Snigger. Check it out, brother. It's a word. He sniggered and then I immediately realised something. But did you find snigger? What does he say? Disrespectful laugh? What else huh? To laugh with a in a disrespectful manner, half suppressed laughter, indecorous laugh. So he gave me an indecorous laugh or he gave an indecorous laugh. He sniggered when I said oh enjoy this place with your wife and he had come with his wife and I told this is a wonderful. He gave an indecorous laugh. He gave a disrespectful laugh. 1/2 suppressed laugh. Wow. I thought about his snigger for a long time. Why did he snigger? Ask your neighbor why did this man snigger? Do you know what? Do you want to know why? Why? Because as he had come to Ghana, he had not come here to rest, neither had he come for a holiday. He saw Ghana as a mission field that he had to come for two or three days to conduct his evangelistic campaign at Kwan Inkuma Circle. He didn't see Ghana. If he wanted to rest, he wouldn't have come to Ghana. If he wanted luxury, he wouldn't have come to Ghana. Ghana would not have been his choice. He would have chosen some other exotic location. He would have chosen some other romantic destination. He would have chosen another place of beauty and and and rest in peace. He wouldn't have chosen Ghana. When he came to Ghana, he saw Ghana as his mission field. He told me a lot of people have written to him in America from Ghana. He said he gets a lot of letters from all over the world but especially from Ghana. Most of the people are requesting help, assistance, bicycles and other donations that they need for their lives. So he has had this impression for a long time to come to Ghana. You get it? So when I was suggesting to, oh, enjoy this chalet and enjoy this, you know, surroundings, he he, he, he, he sniggered, which is what an indecorous laugh has have suppressed laughter and once again disrespectful laugh. And what scornful laugh, suppressed scuffle. Do you think I came to Ghana to come and relax? Do you think I don't know the way to Malaysia, Singapore, Dubai, Hawaii and where? Maldives, Mauritius, Miami. Huh. Bahamas. You think I don't know the way to the Caribbean? Will I fly to Ghana to come and enjoy? Ghana is not my place of relaxation and enjoyment with my wife. It's my mission field. I'm here on a mission to come in Kuma Circle. So for three nights he campaigned at the Kwami in Krummer circle, preaching night after night the pure gospel of Jesus Christ. Now you, you have been landed in this world and you are being taken round, being shown chalice, and you are also happy because you are mistakenly taking this world to be a place of exotic destination to come and enjoy here. When God has not planned for you to enjoy anything here. He has planned for you to see this world as a mission field. You are here on a mission. As long as your heart is beating, it is beating to keep you alive on the mission field. All your money that God will ever give to you is for your mission. All your intelligence is for your mission. My brain box up here is for my mission. I use all my intelligence for the mission. Oh, yeah. I use all my, my brain power and my thinking abilities and anything I have for my this world is not my home. I have no, sometimes I travel, you know, people come and say, oh, there's a beautiful golf concierge. I just, I just snigger. I do what? Snigger. Tell somebody I I I sniggered. Yeah. When I heard them inviting me to come and relax here, to come and play golf here. I didn't come here to play golf. I don't see this place as a place of rest. If I wanted to rest, I wouldn't have gone to Rydro. I wouldn't have gone to Bangor City. If I wanted to rest, I wouldn't have gone to Kisidugu where they are eating monkeys and there is Ebola virus. I wouldn't have gone there for resting time or relaxation. If God wanted you to rest, he wouldn't have brought you to this world. This world is a wild place. He himself stayed here for 33 years and said it's enough, I'm out of this place. I can't stay more than 33 years. What? And you want to be here for 90 years? You want to live forever because you are not seeing this world as you should see it. You should not just not see it as your home, but you should see it as your mission field. Go ye into all the world and relax. Go ye into all the world and enjoy. That's why you'll be standing tests. We are enjoying. Sure, in this world you are relaxing when demons are coming towards you to enter one of the six holes. Wow. Don't see a place in the wrong way. Don't see it in the wrong way. Hona Bonin John. Hona Bonin John, don't see it in the wrong way. We are not here for enjoyment. We are here on a dangerous mission. Hey, if I wanted to be happy and relax, I wouldn't go to certain places when I go, oh, we have a swimming pool here, you can come swim myself. If I wanted to swim, I wouldn't come here to swim. I have somewhere that I will go to swim. As I've come. I have not even brought swimming trunks because it has not occurred to me that the place that I'm going to preach, I'm going to go swimming, golfing, playing table tennis, eating kebab. Even when I'm eating, I'm thinking that this food I'm eating, it should not disturb me as I'm going to preach. Should in case I'm going to preach and I start trotting. So because of that, sometimes I forsake the food. I said that because of my mission, I came here to preach, not to be eaten. When I look at the food, I said this food may disturb my equanimity. Do you know equanimity? Check it, it's a word, but I'm going to enjoy. There are certain brothels that I have, but I don't release them. It is because I've been sensing that you don't know certain brothels. Equanimity, mental or emotional stability or composure? Yeah, mental or emotional stability. So I look and I say that when I eat this, it can disturb my equanimity. Is your equanimity being disturbed? It's a word. You see, once in a while you must introduce one or two brothels that people don't know so that they will realize that Charlie, you've done English or oral English without apple equanimity. Is your equanimity being disturbed by this guy? No, Wow. Don't think of this world as the home. This world is not your home base. You are just flying through. Wow, even your marriage. Don't think of it as we shall be together forever and ever. I shall look into your eyes, I shall look behind your eyes. We shall stay together forever. It's not true. You are going to stay with that person for only chapter 2 of your life. Yeah, and no one knows how many chapters your life has. Your life may have 4 chapters. Chapter 1 without your wife, Chapter 2 with your wife. Chapter 3 without your wife. Chapter 4 with your second wife. That's four chapters. If you have three wives, you're going to have six chapters. Yeah, because nobody knows who's going to go first. You've come to this, but I've come to enjoy. Do you remember that American evangelist I was telling you about? Yeah. Who's *** Yeah, I took you to the best hotel in Accra. I showed him the best room in the hotel and I said we have printed this place for you. Enjoy. I've seen your wife walking behind you. Enjoy. He just he did what? He's naked from today. Anybody who is taking you around this world, showing you things in standard, tatted bank, Barclays Bank, London, New York, America, Switzerland, they show you things. What will you do? *** *** Yeah. Just yeah, yeah, yeah. If I wanted to enjoy, I wouldn't come to this world to come and enjoy. Yeah, yeah. You've seen it already. Some of you are doctors struggle hard to become a doctor. After becoming a doctor, what did they say? 2 years housemanship with hard labor. After that, what did they tell us? Oh, Ghana degree. Well, you have to do another exam. You do another two years to do another exam. After that they say, OK, what passport do you have? Cannot come here, cannot come here. Cannot do this. Another four years doing something. But oh, if you had wanted to enjoy it is not this world. You would have to wait till we get to heaven. I was telling you about my lake in heaven. Some of us will have private mountains. Oh, yeah, personal mountain. You see a place like Makati Hill, It can be for one person. Oh, yeah. Endless hills with good neighbors. No security, no security, no burglar proofing, no mosquito Nets, just fresh air, no air conditioned because the temperature will be just right. Yes huh. No night, no night all ladies, you are not going to struggle in the kitchen for a long time. Call on a couple of angels. Tell the Angel what you want to eat today. Wow. Tell your neighbor, neighbor from today, when they take you and they show you a Toyota, a Land Cruiser, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Volkswagen, PO George, you know, Pojo, PJO, Pojo, Pojo. In Nigeria, they say Pojo. They tell us, look, what would you do when they show it to you? You do what? You do what you do. What *** Yeah, just like the American evangelist. And you just say it to yourself. You didn't say anything to, but you say it to yourself. If I had wanted to enjoy It's not this earth, I would have come to look for cars. I'm booking my Chariots in heaven. What do you mean this world is not my home? This world is not my home. I'm just passing. Through. The treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue. The. Angels begun. Me. From Heaven's open door and I can't fill that hole in this. World anymore, oh Lord, you know. I have no friend like you. Heaven's not my whole. Then, Lord, what shall I do? The. Angels be coming from heavens over the door, and thy hands fill that hole in this. World anymore, Oh Lord you. Know I have no friend like you. Heaven is not my home. Hell, Lord, what shall I do? Through the Angels, Beckham from. Heaven's. Open door and I can't be that. Home in this world anymore. Wow chapter 6th how many chapters do you have? Chapter 1 is what? Huh. What is the world? Chapter 2 is what? We have another world in view. Chapter 3 is what we are the world. Hey chapter 4, how do we relate with the world? Isn't it chapter 5? If this world is not my home, then what is it? Chapter 6 Say again, what are the difficulties of living in this world? Chapter 7, No. Chapter 7, Chapter 7 is Jesus Christ and the world. Jesus Christ versus the world. Chapter 8. Chapter 8 is the Holy Spirit versus the world. The Holy Spirit versus the world. Wow. Number one, the world cannot receive the Holy Spirit. Anybody who is an unbeliever cannot receive the Holy Spirit. So when we invite people to come forward to give, to receive the Holy Spirit, they cannot be unbelievers. They must be people who have been transported out of this world. Because the Bible says in John 14 verse 17, even the spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth Him not, neither knoweth him, but ye know him, for He dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. Don 1417 The world cannot receive the Holy Spirit. How many understand why nobody can receive the Holy Spirit if you are not born again? Isn't it? But the Bible says the world cannot receive the Holy Spirit. That's why real anointed music, The world does not want to hear such music in their discourse #2 the world does not receive or see the manifestations of Jesus Christ. Judas saith unto him, not his carrot. Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? How is it that thou will manifest thyself unto us and not unto the world? How the world does not receive the manifestations of Jesus #3 That's John 1422 #3 #3. The Holy Spirit is the only one who can convict the world of sin. When he is come, He will reprove the world of sin, of righteousness, and of judgement of sin. Because they believe not on me. Wow #4 The Holy Spirit is the only one who can convince the world of righteousness. When he is come, He will reprove the world of sin. Of righteousness and of judgment, and #5 the Holy Spirit is the only one who can conflict the world of judgment, Amen. The same verse John 16, verse 8. When the Holy Spirit comes, He will convince the world, Amen. Ayuda, we're just about to close. We're just about to close. But you've got to listen to this Ayudia. Ayudia, listen carefully, listen carefully, listen the Holy Spirit and the world. This the chapter, the Holy Spirit and the world. What does the Holy Spirit do with the world? He is the one who convinces them of sin, not you. Huh. When somebody gets saved, it's because the Holy Spirit has convinced the person. You are not a personal Holy Spirit to somebody. Those of you who are going on visitation to the same person about 27 times to convince the person of sin like you are convincing the person what is bad, he will never see that it's bad. Convincing the person of righteousness, he will never see what is right. And convincing the person of judgment that he will never see that he will go to hell. They never see, they never understand. They never believe. They can't even imagine it. It is only the Holy Spirit who does that work. That is the work of the Holy Spirit. That is why you are supposed to spend time in prayer, so that the Holy Spirit descends on the world and convinces the people. Yeah, until the Holy Spirit works on somebody, he cannot change. So pray for God to touch people's hearts. Otherwise they can't change. They cannot change. I remember a certain man. My wife invited him to church. Do you know what he told her? He told her I don't go to afternoon jumps. If I want to go to a discotheque or club, I'll go Badon. I can't go to your church. It's an afternoon jump. They jump in the daytime. You see them jumping around like squirrels. Yeah. So we had a breakfast meeting and everybody had given up on this guy who was a very some way person. But there was somebody who just took a card to him and said we have this program at this restaurant, will you come? The man who said doesn't go to afternoon jump and he came to the breakfast meeting. Not many people came for the breakfast, maybe about 30 people. And who was preaching? Nobody else than Bishop Duncan Williams. Yeah, we, we happened to invite him many years ago, more than 20 years ago. He came and when he preached, he lifted up his fingers that were bent and he spoke. Then he reached a point, he said, look, he told a story. He said God does not like it when people boast about things that He has given to them. As he started to speak in his way, this man who said the afternoon down, he took his pen and started to write the list of errors in what he was saying. The number one, this is wrong #2 this is wrong #3 this is nonsense #4 with notes, I mean notes. We are taking notes of nonsense. When Bishop Duncan Williams finished preaching, then he said, you want to give your life to Jesus. The man said himself, I said, I do. I saw that my hand was like this. The man was writing them. He put their nose down and lifted his hand. He that was his day of salvation. He got saved about 20 years ago, and he still saved, still in the church. Yeah, because you laugh at you laugh. But the day coming, the Holy Spirit catches you like that. You not even know how. It is the work of the Holy Spirit, not of you, holy Christian. It's the work of the Holy Spirit. That's why that verse is saying it is the Holy Spirit that convinces us, convinces people of sin. No one can know that he is bad unless the Holy Spirit tells you are bad. You can talk to people, tell them you are bad, you are bad. They will not believe you. Haven't you noticed it? Yeah. So that is why we have to pray more and let the reign of the Holy Spirit fall on people's hearts and that the Holy Spirit would drop people and touch people and change people. That is how people are converted. And that's how churches grow. They don't grow by Amari force to too much agorica. You cannot force salvation into somebody, the Holy Spirit. That's why this brother keeps coming to the company where he's being drawn by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit draws. You can't come unless the Holy Spirit is drawing. So that is why it is important to sleep early and wake up and pray. Otherwise, all that we are doing is empty. It is only one person who changes people's hearts. All of you who are here, you are here at this camp, about 700 of us here. It is because the holy state is constantly drawing you. That's why you come and listen to me talking for a long time. I mean, why? It's because the Holy Spirit is drawing you. It's the work of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit has called you. God has called you, drawing you, pulling you, drawing you. That is what makes you interested. Because we are not here cracking jokes. Yeah, it's serious. How many Relax that we are serious. Yeah, very serious. Dead serious. Stand to your feet.
