00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.000
Hey guys, we are getting to that place now where any more teaching will just keep making

00:00:09.360 --> 00:00:16.360
us more knowledgeable and fatter.

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:37.000
Yeah, so we are getting to that place in the life of this church where more teaching will

00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:54.320
add just information and make us knowledgeable but fatter. So hopefully we can start focusing

00:00:54.320 --> 00:01:01.320
on repeating teachings or going over old stuff in the near future and having more and more

00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:09.320
of us do the work of ministry, do the work that a pastor should do so that in a few years

00:01:15.720 --> 00:01:22.720
there is hardly anyone who doesn't have the ability to do the work that a pastor should

00:01:24.320 --> 00:01:31.320
do. So we are getting to that place where we can both plant a church and establish a

00:01:31.320 --> 00:01:36.320
church with help. I think we are coming to that place where how much can you teach, right?

00:01:36.320 --> 00:01:43.320
There is no end to teaching, the Bible says. There is no end to the publishing of books,

00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:50.560
that's what the Bible says. Every revival comes with signs and wonders and I remember

00:01:51.080 --> 00:01:57.520
talking about this in November last year but I just want to talk about signs and wonders.

00:01:57.520 --> 00:02:04.520
Today I want to talk about the why of signs and wonders, tomorrow perhaps the how of signs

00:02:04.680 --> 00:02:11.000
and wonders. The why of signs and wonders and the how of signs and wonders. There is

00:02:11.000 --> 00:02:18.000
something on the side that I want to address. I might be a little pensive today, I don't

00:02:18.000 --> 00:02:25.000
know. But the more easily you are offended, the more easily you give in to your sensitivities,

00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:37.720
the more easy it is for the enemy to trip you up. I'm not saying become callous or

00:02:37.720 --> 00:02:44.720
hard skinned or hard hearted but learn to recover from your offence, from your guilt,

00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:55.520
sensitivities quickly. Don't sulk, don't distance people from you because they let

00:02:57.560 --> 00:03:04.080
you down or because you feel hurt. Don't do stuff like that. It prevents you from going

00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:11.080
further. It prevents you from being selected for training by the Holy Spirit because the

00:03:12.080 --> 00:03:19.080
skin is so thin and the sensitivities are so acute and the childish responses are so

00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:26.080
intense that the Spirit of God has to wait because once the battle starts, offence will

00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:33.080
come easily and it will trip us up. I just need to say that and if the hat fits, wear

00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:40.160
it. What we are entering into, what we are going into requires that we forgive offence

00:03:40.160 --> 00:03:47.160
fast and we move together as a unit, not isolated, not separated, not...yeah, don't please.

00:03:55.320 --> 00:04:02.320
Yeah. I mean if I'm someone who bruises easily, you would not be able to help me. I mean

00:04:10.160 --> 00:04:16.720
you would have to have me play with you on a soccer field or a rugby field. Why? Because

00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:23.000
I bruise easily. So if I bruise easily, you'll have to either put me in a position where

00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:27.320
I do not bruise easily or you'll have to call me up when you're playing a team that's relatively

00:04:27.320 --> 00:04:33.480
weak so that nobody pushes me around. That's okay when we start but a time comes when one

00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:40.480
needs to learn how not to be someone who bruises easily. Keep that in mind, eh? It's

00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:45.000
important because I really believe we are coming into that time where we have to move

00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:52.000
together as a cohesive unit, not isolated, with less coping mechanisms, less coping mechanisms.

00:04:55.040 --> 00:04:58.640
The greater our transparency, the less of the coping mechanisms. This has nothing to

00:04:58.640 --> 00:05:04.200
do with the teaching. I'm just saying this on the side because it's for whatever reason

00:05:04.200 --> 00:05:09.320
pressing on my heart. It applies to both guys and girls, eh? This is not a guy thing or

00:05:09.320 --> 00:05:16.320
a girl thing. It applies to both of us. I remember someone saying this long ago. Your

00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:23.280
back must be like a colander where lots of people have stabbed you. There are a lot of

00:05:23.280 --> 00:05:30.280
holes but they're also sealed very quickly. Thank God we don't stab each other in this

00:05:32.440 --> 00:05:39.440
church. And if we do, get healed anyways. I know that sounds terribly callous but I can

00:05:45.640 --> 00:05:50.760
say that because we don't stab each other. Alright, I want the volume down a little because

00:05:50.760 --> 00:05:57.760
now it's beginning to echo. Today I want to talk about signs and wonders because signs

00:06:01.600 --> 00:06:08.600
and wonders are quite expected in a revival. So today we'll talk about the why of signs

00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:16.480
and wonders. Why do we need signs and wonders? And then tomorrow we'll talk about how do

00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:23.480
we go about then walking in signs and wonders. Another word for signs and wonders is miracles.

00:06:30.200 --> 00:06:37.200
Miracles are basically miracles and miracles are things that violate or override natural

00:06:37.200 --> 00:06:44.200
order. So all the things that Don was speaking about make sense because that's something

00:06:53.480 --> 00:06:59.480
God wants us to walk in. God wants us to walk in the 17 year old's footstep. God wants us

00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:06.480
to do again what he always likes doing. And so, the reason why we need signs and wonders

00:07:08.160 --> 00:07:15.160
miracles are basically things that violate or overrule natural order. And they point

00:07:15.400 --> 00:07:22.400
to God, they point to God and they also point to his presence amongst a people. They also

00:07:26.220 --> 00:07:33.220
point to his presence amongst a people. I'd go so far as to say that a church that is

00:07:33.220 --> 00:07:40.220
devoid of signs, miracles and wonders... Just one sec guys. Check, check, check. Okay.

00:08:03.220 --> 00:08:10.220
Betty, what does it mean more transparency? Okay, this is going back to the previous

00:08:12.460 --> 00:08:19.460
conversations. Betty is asking what does it mean to have more transparency? More transparency

00:08:20.660 --> 00:08:27.660
is when people see Jesus more easily. Jesus isn't hidden. More and more when people see

00:08:28.660 --> 00:08:35.660
me, they'll see more and more of Jesus's characteristics come out. One of the things that Jesus wasn't

00:08:35.660 --> 00:08:42.660
sensitive though... Jesus wasn't offended easily though he was the ultimate sensitive

00:08:43.660 --> 00:08:50.660
man. He could be moved by things so easily on heaven and in earth. And so, we think transparency

00:08:50.660 --> 00:08:55.660
is the ability to see through a person. When it comes to Christianity, transparency is

00:08:55.660 --> 00:09:01.660
the ability of people to see into you and see the one who lives in you. And therefore,

00:09:01.660 --> 00:09:07.660
that's only possible as the veil of flesh becomes less and less obvious where pretense

00:09:07.660 --> 00:09:14.660
and being someone at certain times of the day and being someone else at other times

00:09:14.660 --> 00:09:20.660
of the day goes away. Where there's only one person and that person is so united with

00:09:20.660 --> 00:09:26.660
Christ and that the Christ begins to show more because the person and Christ are becoming

00:09:26.660 --> 00:09:33.660
so one. Transparency exposes Christ in a person. Transparency in a Christian's case is not

00:09:34.660 --> 00:09:38.660
this is what you see is what you get. No. What you see is not what you get for the Christian.

00:09:39.660 --> 00:09:46.660
What you see should be Jesus. And that only happens as pretense and being two people or

00:09:46.660 --> 00:09:53.660
three people or four people disappears and the Christness comes out. I've said this before

00:09:54.660 --> 00:09:59.660
but one of the things that really impressed me about Michael W. Smith was not his singing.

00:09:59.660 --> 00:10:06.660
It was though I love the song. Hallelujah. But one of the things he said through the

00:10:06.660 --> 00:10:13.660
year when he was interviewed and they asked him so what's your new year resolution and

00:10:13.660 --> 00:10:18.660
he said my new year resolution is that at the end of the year I will no longer be offended

00:10:18.660 --> 00:10:23.660
by people. I won't take offense. I thought what a statement. Man I wish I could get there.

00:10:23.660 --> 00:10:29.660
Where you are. Where it's impossible for you to offend me. Not because you are not offensive

00:10:29.660 --> 00:10:36.660
but because I'm not taking offense because of the Christ in me. If Jesus were to clam up

00:10:36.660 --> 00:10:51.660
every time he's offended or is grieved my God man we'd have a shut heaven. Yeah. So

00:10:51.660 --> 00:10:58.660
signs and wonders are miracles that violate or overrule natural order. Signs and miracles

00:10:58.660 --> 00:11:04.660
point to God and it marks us as a distinct people that carry the presence of God. If

00:11:04.660 --> 00:11:22.660
you look at Deuteronomy 434. Deuteronomy 434. Deuteronomy 434. Has any God reading from

00:11:22.660 --> 00:11:31.660
verse 32. Deuteronomy 432 onwards. Ask now about the former days long before your time

00:11:31.660 --> 00:11:35.660
from the day God created man on earth. Ask from one end of the heavens to the other.

00:11:35.660 --> 00:11:41.660
Has anything so great as this ever happened or has anything like it ever been heard of?

00:11:41.660 --> 00:11:46.660
Has any other people heard the voice of God speaking out of fire as you have and lived?

00:11:46.660 --> 00:11:51.660
Has any God ever tried to take for himself one nation out of another nation by testings,

00:11:51.660 --> 00:11:57.660
by miraculous signs and wonders, by war, by a mighty hand and an outstretched arm or by

00:11:57.660 --> 00:12:02.660
great and awesome deeds like all the things the Lord your God did for you in Egypt before

00:12:02.660 --> 00:12:06.660
your eyes. You were shown these things so that you might know that the Lord is God.

00:12:06.660 --> 00:12:14.660
Besides him there is no other. Signs and wonders and miracles are supposed to help us show

00:12:14.660 --> 00:12:19.660
people that we are a distinct people and carry the presence of God and a church that

00:12:19.660 --> 00:12:30.660
does not walk in signs, wonders and miracles is a church that cannot display his presence

00:12:30.660 --> 00:12:37.660
the way they are supposed to. Sure you can preach it but the thing is and I will say

00:12:37.660 --> 00:12:42.660
this many times over later that the Holy Spirit never separates words and deeds. The

00:12:42.660 --> 00:12:47.660
Holy Spirit comes with this double expression of word and deed is it's never separate,

00:12:47.660 --> 00:12:52.660
never separate. Today we are just talking about the why of signs and wonders.

00:12:52.660 --> 00:13:03.660
Guys sorry I am going back to the offense thing. Not to take offense doesn't mean you

00:13:03.660 --> 00:13:09.660
don't hurt. Not to take offense is to hurt and not react to it childishly, not react

00:13:09.660 --> 00:13:16.660
to it by building up defense mechanisms, not react to it by withdrawing and isolating

00:13:16.660 --> 00:13:23.660
and saying alright I will keep a healthy distance so that I don't get hurt again. Not taking

00:13:23.660 --> 00:13:28.660
the grief to a place of offense where now there is bitterness that has come out of the

00:13:28.660 --> 00:13:33.660
hurt. It is the ability to hurt and then take the hurt to God and take the hurt to the person

00:13:34.660 --> 00:13:41.660
if there are ways to take it to the person and then leap over it into a new place. That's

00:13:42.660 --> 00:13:47.660
something that Jesus has the ability to do and you and I should learn to do because it's

00:13:47.660 --> 00:13:54.660
an easy trip, easy tripper that the devil uses against Christians. Don't let it happen

00:13:55.660 --> 00:14:02.660
to you because we must go to Romans 8 and become conquerors, overcomers. That's enough

00:14:02.660 --> 00:14:07.660
said about that. Please don't ask me a question about that now. If you have a question you

00:14:07.660 --> 00:14:11.660
can ask me later because otherwise I will never finish this. It's my fault but don't

00:14:11.660 --> 00:14:19.660
add to it. So if I were to redefine signs and wonders of miracles I would redefine it

00:14:19.660 --> 00:14:26.660
this way. I would redefine it as the works of God. I love this definition. I would redefine

00:14:27.660 --> 00:14:34.660
miracles as the works of God, as the works of God that restore created order and ends

00:14:47.660 --> 00:14:54.660
brokenness. That's why God does miracles. He does miracles. He does miracles. He does

00:14:56.660 --> 00:15:03.660
miracles. God is continually in the business of trying to restore Eden. What had been broken

00:15:05.660 --> 00:15:09.660
in Eden, what has been destroyed in Eden, what has been introduced in Eden in terms

00:15:09.660 --> 00:15:16.660
of pain, tears, death. He wants to restore that and it won't be restored to Revelation

00:15:16.660 --> 00:15:23.660
21 verse 4 but while we are waiting for Revelation 21 verse 4 God does signs and wonders. God

00:15:24.660 --> 00:15:31.660
overrules natural order. God violates natural order. Why? Because he does these works so

00:15:33.660 --> 00:15:39.660
that he can restore created order and undo brokenness. Just pause on that and you will

00:15:39.660 --> 00:15:44.660
understand why God does signs and miracles. God doesn't do signs and miracles to impress

00:15:44.660 --> 00:15:51.660
us. He's not a magician. He's got an intent that is so much deeper, so much more loving,

00:15:51.660 --> 00:15:57.660
so much more plan A, so much more restorative. I'm doing signs and miracles and wonders

00:15:57.660 --> 00:16:02.660
children because I want to restore that which was broken. I want to restore created order

00:16:02.660 --> 00:16:09.660
to how I had dreamt it to be. I want to end brokenness by overruling what is happening

00:16:12.660 --> 00:16:19.660
naturally in a world that is decaying. And this is why then you see Jesus using miracles

00:16:21.660 --> 00:16:26.660
and miraculous powers to heal the sick, to feed the hungry, to raise the dead. What's

00:16:26.660 --> 00:16:33.660
he doing there? He's not trying to say okay I can produce food. He's not saying okay let

00:16:33.660 --> 00:16:36.660
me show you how much power I have. Let me heal a few sick. No. He's doing it because

00:16:36.660 --> 00:16:43.660
he wants to restore that which was destroyed, restore the order that he had planned initially.

00:16:45.660 --> 00:16:50.660
He used his miraculous power to heal the sick, to feed the hungry, to raise the dead and

00:16:50.660 --> 00:16:55.660
that is part of the gospel. That is part of the gospel. We'll talk about the gospel

00:16:55.660 --> 00:17:01.660
a little more tomorrow but that is part of the gospel. Signs and wonders are part of

00:17:01.660 --> 00:17:10.660
the gospel. Signs, wonders and miracles are part of the gospel. What is the gospel? One

00:17:10.660 --> 00:17:17.660
of the things we'll explore tomorrow. At the end of the day the gospel is announcing the

00:17:17.660 --> 00:17:23.660
good news that God is restoring and making all things new. The gospel is announcing

00:17:23.660 --> 00:17:29.660
the good news that God is restoring and making all things new. And this is part of it. Making

00:17:29.660 --> 00:17:39.660
a crippled hand new. Making a dead life come back to new life. It is a shame that we have

00:17:39.660 --> 00:17:45.660
confined God to regenerating the spirit and making us born again but not allowing him

00:17:45.660 --> 00:17:50.660
to touch any other part of us. There is hardly an expectation. There is sometimes wishful

00:17:50.660 --> 00:17:56.660
thinking, there is sometimes hope but there is hardly an expectation. We have such a sure

00:17:56.660 --> 00:18:01.660
confidence in terms of heaven. We are so sure that because we are born again we will go

00:18:01.660 --> 00:18:06.660
to heaven. But there isn't that sure confidence when it comes to other things with regard

00:18:06.660 --> 00:18:12.660
to signs and wonders and miracles. And so we come up with such lousy theology like the

00:18:12.660 --> 00:18:21.660
greatest miracle that God does is the miracle of getting one saved. While it may be true

00:18:21.660 --> 00:18:28.660
it still just sucks when it is put that way and you dismiss a whole side of the gospel

00:18:28.660 --> 00:18:38.660
then. In the gospel then the book of Acts miracles were part of Jesus' message. Miracles

00:18:38.660 --> 00:18:44.660
were part of Jesus' message and then he would preach and explain it. Because many people

00:18:44.660 --> 00:18:49.660
say oh the signs and wonders and miracles do not save us so we shouldn't focus on that.

00:18:49.660 --> 00:18:54.660
I am saying to you that there were many times when Jesus actually used miracles, signs and

00:18:54.660 --> 00:18:59.660
wonders as part of his message and after performing miracles, signs and wonders he would actually

00:18:59.660 --> 00:19:09.660
preach on it. In Matthew 11 verse 4 John's disciples are sent to him and Jesus says to them,

00:19:09.660 --> 00:19:15.660
John's disciples ask are you the real Messiah? And he says to them go tell John that the dead

00:19:15.660 --> 00:19:19.660
are being raised, the sick are being healed, lepers are being cleansed, the blind are seeing

00:19:19.660 --> 00:19:25.660
and anyone who doesn't take offense at this and believes it, blessed are they. That's what he

00:19:25.660 --> 00:19:30.660
tells them. That yeah you want to know if I am the Messiah tell John the Baptist that this is what

00:19:30.660 --> 00:19:37.660
I am doing. And in a sense signs, miracles and wonders authenticated Jesus' Messiahship. How dare

00:19:37.660 --> 00:19:45.660
we take it away? How dare we stop short of it? I want to walk in this. I don't have as many years

00:19:45.660 --> 00:19:53.660
as many of you do. But if someone had helped me start much earlier in this and given me an understanding

00:19:53.660 --> 00:20:07.660
of it, wouldn't the world have benefited more? In Acts chapter 3 verse 16 Peter and John have just

00:20:07.660 --> 00:20:14.660
healed the paralytic at the beautiful gate and Peter says hey I know we've done the healing and

00:20:14.660 --> 00:20:18.660
some of you are upset and some of you are wondering what's happening. I just want you to know that

00:20:18.660 --> 00:20:25.660
this man has been healed in the name of Jesus and in no other name. Acts chapter 3 verse 16. He uses

00:20:25.660 --> 00:20:31.660
a miracle sign of wonder to then begin, he first performs a miracle sign of wonder and then uses a

00:20:31.660 --> 00:20:36.660
message or teach on what just happened in the name of Jesus. The same thing happens again in Acts chapter

00:20:36.660 --> 00:20:47.660
14 verse 15 where I think he is in Lystra and in Lystra a cripple is healed and people begin to think

00:20:47.660 --> 00:20:54.660
that Paul and Barnabas are the Greek gods Zeus and someone else and they begin to worship Paul

00:20:54.660 --> 00:20:59.660
and Barnabas and again he takes the miracle sign of wonder and uses that to then begin to teach and

00:20:59.660 --> 00:21:10.660
listen this is done again in the name of Jesus. The Holy Spirit as I said earlier always presents

00:21:10.660 --> 00:21:17.660
a double expression of words and deeds. A double expression. He's not saying oh just preach the word

00:21:17.660 --> 00:21:23.660
and the power of God unto salvation is released in the word which is true. Which is true that the power

00:21:23.660 --> 00:21:28.660
of God unto salvation is in the word of God. We can't deny that but at the same time the Holy Spirit

00:21:28.660 --> 00:21:34.660
doesn't divide it like that. He always says words and deeds. It would never occur to Paul that the

00:21:34.660 --> 00:21:40.660
miraculous would not accompany the proclamation of the gospel. It would never occur to Paul. And you

00:21:40.660 --> 00:21:46.660
see it in his writings. We'll read that. Romans 15, 18, 19. It has never occurred to him that I've got to

00:21:46.660 --> 00:21:52.660
separate words and deeds. It's the word that saves and deeds are not important. He always would talk

00:21:52.660 --> 00:21:58.660
about it as if the proclamation of the gospel is accompanied by the miraculous. And the way he thought

00:21:58.660 --> 00:22:04.660
was simply because that's the way the Holy Spirit works. The words would end up

00:22:04.660 --> 00:22:10.660
accompanying. The words would end up being accompanied by the deeds and the deeds would authenticate

00:22:10.660 --> 00:22:18.660
the word. The words would end up producing deeds and the deeds or the works. The words would produce

00:22:18.660 --> 00:22:26.660
works and the works would authenticate the word. The words would produce works and the works would

00:22:26.660 --> 00:22:36.660
authenticate the word. We have to struggle, grapple, wrestle into this.

00:22:36.660 --> 00:22:42.660
Like everything else it may require practice. It may require effort. It may require a new way of thinking.

00:22:42.660 --> 00:22:48.660
It may require persistence. It may require repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat, repeat. But a day will come

00:22:48.660 --> 00:22:54.660
like in so many other areas in our lives. Why is this church a church that hears God well? Why is this

00:22:54.660 --> 00:23:00.660
church that has the ability to prophesy? Why is this church becoming less pastor-oriented and more

00:23:00.660 --> 00:23:06.660
people-oriented? Why is it that clergy is not important in this church? Why is it that nations

00:23:06.660 --> 00:23:12.660
are affected by this church? Because at some point we decided that this is worth pressing into. So press and press and press and press and

00:23:12.660 --> 00:23:18.660
repeat, repeat, repeat, practice, practice, practice. And then one day it becomes very natural and nobody even thinks about it.

00:23:24.660 --> 00:23:28.660
In most things Christian there's this thing called appropriation.

00:23:30.660 --> 00:23:36.660
Where you have to appropriate what God is giving. And appropriation requires breaking out of our natural,

00:23:36.660 --> 00:23:42.660
breaking out of our ways of thinking, breaking out of our set patterns, breaking out of our mindset, and appropriating

00:23:42.660 --> 00:23:48.660
what God is giving and what he gives is so unhandleable because it's absolutely supernatural, it's illogical,

00:23:48.660 --> 00:23:54.660
it defies the mind. But once you appropriate it, it becomes flesh. And once the word becomes flesh,

00:23:54.660 --> 00:23:58.660
you begin to walk in it as if it's the most natural thing.

00:24:06.660 --> 00:24:12.660
Guys, today's needs in the world are so great and the church is so weak to meet it that we must go the Acts

00:24:12.660 --> 00:24:18.660
chapter 5 verse 12 to 16 route. Acts chapter 5 verse 12 to 16 route. I'm so glad for the book of Acts, man.

00:24:18.660 --> 00:24:24.660
So glad we can use that as a pattern today. Acts chapter 5 verse 12 to 16.

00:24:26.660 --> 00:24:30.660
It says that the apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders.

00:24:32.660 --> 00:24:36.660
Manoj, can you grab me a bottle of water? Thanks.

00:24:36.660 --> 00:24:40.660
The apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders among the people.

00:24:40.660 --> 00:24:44.660
And all the believers used to meet together in Solomon's Colonnade.

00:24:44.660 --> 00:24:48.660
No one dared join them even though they were highly regarded by the people.

00:24:48.660 --> 00:24:52.660
Nevertheless, more and more men and women believed in the Lord and were added to their number.

00:24:52.660 --> 00:24:56.660
Let me read it properly. Let me read it as if I'm actually interested in what I'm reading.

00:24:56.660 --> 00:25:00.660
The apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders.

00:25:00.660 --> 00:25:04.660
Many, not some. The apostles performed and performed

00:25:04.660 --> 00:25:08.660
Oh, it's not a performance. I don't know what the word actually means in Greek, but they actually did.

00:25:08.660 --> 00:25:12.660
It was visible for all. The apostles performed many miraculous signs and wonders among the people.

00:25:12.660 --> 00:25:16.660
All the believers used to meet together in Solomon's Colonnade.

00:25:16.660 --> 00:25:20.660
No one else dared join them even though they were highly regarded by the people.

00:25:20.660 --> 00:25:24.660
Nevertheless, more and more men and women believed in the Lord and were added to their numbers.

00:25:24.660 --> 00:25:28.660
As a result, people brought the sick into the streets and laid them on beds and mats so that they could be buried in the ground.

00:25:28.660 --> 00:25:32.660
Crowds gathered also from towns and around Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those tormented by evil spirits.

00:25:32.660 --> 00:25:36.660
And all of them were healed.

00:25:36.660 --> 00:25:40.660
This is in the Book of Acts. And I'm looking forward to this happening in our lifetime.

00:25:40.660 --> 00:25:44.660
Guys, one of the cool things about life at the age that I met,

00:25:44.660 --> 00:25:48.660
having been a Christian for 31 or 32 years,

00:25:48.660 --> 00:25:52.660
is that I was able to see the world in a different light.

00:25:52.660 --> 00:25:56.660
I was able to see the world in a different light.

00:25:56.660 --> 00:26:00.660
The cool thing about that, having been a Christian for 31 or 32 years,

00:26:00.660 --> 00:26:04.660
is that I see the faithfulness of God in what he has promised and what he has said he will do.

00:26:04.660 --> 00:26:08.660
Many of the things that he told me 30 years ago has come to pass.

00:26:08.660 --> 00:26:12.660
I've seen them.

00:26:12.660 --> 00:26:16.660
You've seen them. That's the great thing about being old.

00:26:16.660 --> 00:26:20.660
You get to see promises fulfilled.

00:26:20.660 --> 00:26:24.660
I was the age of some of these guys here. God said, you'll see this.

00:26:24.660 --> 00:26:28.660
I'm an engineer.

00:26:28.660 --> 00:26:32.660
You think impossible. And then you think, are shucks possible?

00:26:32.660 --> 00:26:36.660
How many people does it take to get a bottle of water from the kitchen?

00:26:36.660 --> 00:26:40.660
At present it's two people, but let's see how many more join them.

00:26:40.660 --> 00:26:44.660
olluti себhyao.

00:26:44.660 --> 00:26:48.660
By the way, one is a doctor and one is an engineer.

00:26:48.660 --> 00:26:52.660
They're both in there in the kitchen trying to get me a bottle of water.

00:26:52.660 --> 00:26:56.660
I think they're trying to put hydrogen and oxygen together right now.

00:27:04.660 --> 00:27:08.660
Today's needs are so...

00:27:12.660 --> 00:27:16.660
So where's this from?

00:27:16.660 --> 00:27:20.660
After all that I got tap water. Thank you guys.

00:27:20.660 --> 00:27:24.660
A doctor and an engineer went into a kitchen. That's how most jokes start.

00:27:32.660 --> 00:27:36.660
Today's needs are so great.

00:27:36.660 --> 00:27:40.660
The present church is so weak to meet it that

00:27:40.660 --> 00:27:44.660
we've got to go down this route. There's a desperate prayer

00:27:44.660 --> 00:27:48.660
that the disciples pray in Acts

00:27:48.660 --> 00:27:52.660
Chapter 4 verse 29 and 30, which we've seen many times.

00:27:52.660 --> 00:27:56.660
And when you look at it, look at the things they cried for.

00:28:04.660 --> 00:28:08.660
Acts Chapter 4 verse 29 and 30.

00:28:08.660 --> 00:28:12.660
Look at what it says there. What fascinates me is

00:28:12.660 --> 00:28:16.660
this was a church that had just seen Jesus Christ.

00:28:16.660 --> 00:28:20.660
Many people in the church had actually seen the risen Christ.

00:28:20.660 --> 00:28:24.660
Many of the people in that church had seen miracle signs and wonders

00:28:24.660 --> 00:28:28.660
that Christ had done. Some of them, the risen Christ

00:28:28.660 --> 00:28:32.660
had appeared to them. The preaching was phenomenal.

00:28:32.660 --> 00:28:36.660
They were preaching pretty well. The first time Peter spoke, 3,000 got saved.

00:28:36.660 --> 00:28:40.660
The second time they spoke, 5,000 got saved. So it was not like a church that

00:28:40.660 --> 00:28:44.660
didn't have things happening. Despite that, look at their cry in Acts

00:28:44.660 --> 00:28:48.660
Chapter 4 verse 29 and 30.

00:28:48.660 --> 00:28:52.660
And so here's their desperate cry.

00:28:52.660 --> 00:28:56.660
Their desperate cry is three pronged.

00:28:56.660 --> 00:29:00.660
One, boldness to witness.

00:29:00.660 --> 00:29:04.660
Two, boldness to witness.

00:29:04.660 --> 00:29:08.660
Three, boldness to witness.

00:29:08.660 --> 00:29:12.660
Four, boldness to witness.

00:29:12.660 --> 00:29:16.660
Five, boldness to witness.

00:29:16.660 --> 00:29:20.660
One, boldness to witness. That's where they start, eh?

00:29:20.660 --> 00:29:24.660
I will probably touch on that tomorrow again. Boldness to witness.

00:29:24.660 --> 00:29:28.660
Two,

00:29:28.660 --> 00:29:32.660
God stretch out your hand to heal.

00:29:40.660 --> 00:29:44.660
God stretch out your hand to heal.

00:29:46.660 --> 00:29:50.660
God perform

00:29:50.660 --> 00:29:54.660
signs and miracles.

00:29:58.660 --> 00:30:02.660
Can we start crying out this for the next week?

00:30:02.660 --> 00:30:06.660
Oh God, please Lord, please give me a boldness

00:30:06.660 --> 00:30:10.660
to witness. That seems to be always a door opener.

00:30:10.660 --> 00:30:14.660
Oh God, please stretch out your hand in healing. Oh God, please

00:30:14.660 --> 00:30:18.660
perform signs and wonders. If a church

00:30:18.660 --> 00:30:22.660
that had seen the risen Christ, that preached and had so many people

00:30:22.660 --> 00:30:26.660
come in and become believers. If a church like that had this

00:30:26.660 --> 00:30:30.660
desperate cry right off the bat early in their life,

00:30:30.660 --> 00:30:34.660
they wanted it so badly. They wanted it so badly.

00:30:34.660 --> 00:30:38.660
That's something that God really always responds to, eh? When you want something

00:30:38.660 --> 00:30:42.660
badly for the, when you want something badly for good reason,

00:30:42.660 --> 00:30:46.660
God responds. When you want something really badly for good reason,

00:30:46.660 --> 00:30:50.660
God almost always responds.

00:30:54.660 --> 00:30:58.660
Why did they want it so badly? Because they knew

00:30:58.660 --> 00:31:02.660
that signs and wonders helped bring people to the Lord.

00:31:02.660 --> 00:31:06.660
They knew that signs and wonders brought people to the Lord. Some of them had

00:31:06.660 --> 00:31:10.660
seen it when they were walking with Jesus. Go to Acts chapter 9,

00:31:10.660 --> 00:31:14.660
verse 34 to 40.

00:31:14.660 --> 00:31:18.660
Acts chapter 9, verse 34 to 40.

00:31:22.660 --> 00:31:26.660
As Peter travelled about the country, he went to visit the saints in Lydda.

00:31:26.660 --> 00:31:30.660
There he found a man named Aeneas, a paralytic who had been bedridden for

00:31:30.660 --> 00:31:34.660
eight years. Aeneas Peter said, Jesus Christ heals you. Get up,

00:31:34.660 --> 00:31:38.660
take care of your mat. Immediately Aeneas got up. Peter had seen this before.

00:31:38.660 --> 00:31:42.660
Peter had seen this before. He's actually using almost the exact same words that Jesus used.

00:31:42.660 --> 00:31:46.660
Get up, pick up your mat.

00:31:50.660 --> 00:31:54.660
Immediately Aeneas got up. All those who lived in Lydda.

00:31:54.660 --> 00:31:58.660
Look at that, eh? Let's assume Luke was exaggerating.

00:31:58.660 --> 00:32:02.660
And that it was not all, it was 90%. He wasn't exaggerating,

00:32:02.660 --> 00:32:06.660
but look what it says. All those who lived in Lydda and Sharon, who saw him,

00:32:06.660 --> 00:32:10.660
saw him and turned to the Lord. All those who lived in Lydda and Sharon,

00:32:10.660 --> 00:32:14.660
all. All those who lived in Lydda and Sharon, two small towns,

00:32:14.660 --> 00:32:18.660
saw him and turned to the Lord. In Joppa, there was a

00:32:18.660 --> 00:32:22.660
disciple named Tabitha, which is translated Dorcas, who was always

00:32:22.660 --> 00:32:26.660
doing good and helping the poor. About that time she became sick and died and her body

00:32:26.660 --> 00:32:30.660
was washed and placed in an upstairs room. Lydda was near Joppa, so when the disciples heard

00:32:30.660 --> 00:32:34.660
that Peter was in Lydda, they sent two men to him and urged,

00:32:34.660 --> 00:32:38.660
please come at once. Peter went with them and when he arrived he was taken upstairs to his room.

00:32:38.660 --> 00:32:42.660
All the widows stood around him crying and showing him the robes and other clothing

00:32:42.660 --> 00:32:46.660
that Dorcas had made while she was still with them. Peter sent them all out of the room

00:32:46.660 --> 00:32:50.660
when he got down on his knees and prayed. He had seen that before.

00:32:50.660 --> 00:32:54.660
He was there that day when Jesus took Peter and John with him to pray for

00:32:54.660 --> 00:32:58.660
the little girl and Jesus chased all the mourners out. And then

00:32:58.660 --> 00:33:02.660
Peter and John were there. This is the other great thing with Science, Miracles and Wonders.

00:33:02.660 --> 00:33:06.660
Once a church, once some people in the church or once a church

00:33:06.660 --> 00:33:10.660
or once one or two people in the church start beginning to walk in this, others

00:33:10.660 --> 00:33:14.660
will see it and they will know how to do it. It's not some kind of a

00:33:14.660 --> 00:33:18.660
technique. It is the boldness,

00:33:18.660 --> 00:33:22.660
the expectation, the methodology,

00:33:22.660 --> 00:33:26.660
yes, but the technique is not what is important. It is

00:33:26.660 --> 00:33:30.660
fascinating how in this religion called Christianity

00:33:30.660 --> 00:33:34.660
you imitate who you associate with

00:33:34.660 --> 00:33:38.660
and in you in the process Christ is formed. You imitate

00:33:38.660 --> 00:33:42.660
who you associate with. And so you've got to be careful about your associations

00:33:42.660 --> 00:33:46.660
because if you are associating with someone who does not believe in miracles,

00:33:46.660 --> 00:33:50.660
science and wonders, who is able to explain them away, who pooh-poos them, and there

00:33:50.660 --> 00:33:54.660
can be people like that at Acts 29. I'm not thinking of anybody. But if there are

00:33:54.660 --> 00:33:58.660
people like that and you associate with them, that's exactly what you get. You imitate

00:33:58.660 --> 00:34:02.660
those that you associate with most of the time.

00:34:02.660 --> 00:34:06.660
And in the process something is formed in you. And if you imitate those

00:34:06.660 --> 00:34:10.660
that are associated with Christ, Christ is formed in you.

00:34:14.660 --> 00:34:18.660
And so Peter, and this is exactly why Jesus had

00:34:18.660 --> 00:34:22.660
these guys hanging with him. If you go to Mark chapter 3,

00:34:22.660 --> 00:34:26.660
I think it's Mark chapter 3,

00:34:26.660 --> 00:34:30.660
I'm not sure.

00:34:30.660 --> 00:34:34.660
Mark chapter 3 verse 14,

00:34:34.660 --> 00:34:38.660
He appointed twelve,

00:34:38.660 --> 00:34:42.660
designating them as apostles, that they might be with him and that he might send them out to preach.

00:34:42.660 --> 00:34:46.660
That they might be with him and that he may send them out to preach.

00:34:46.660 --> 00:34:50.660
Why be with him? Because in being with him they would see how he does things.

00:34:50.660 --> 00:34:54.660
And now after he's left the earth and after the Spirit of God has come,

00:34:54.660 --> 00:34:58.660
in a few short verses we see Peter doing twice what Jesus

00:34:58.660 --> 00:35:02.660
did when he used to walk with Peter. Now you can see why Jesus was taking Peter

00:35:02.660 --> 00:35:06.660
and John with him into certain places he wouldn't take the rest of them.

00:35:06.660 --> 00:35:10.660
And so continuing, verse

00:35:10.660 --> 00:35:14.660
40, Peter sent them all out of the room,

00:35:14.660 --> 00:35:18.660
then he got down on his knees and prayed, turning towards the dead woman he said,

00:35:18.660 --> 00:35:22.660
Here is Tabitha get up. In Jesus' case he said,

00:35:22.660 --> 00:35:26.660
Talitha kumi, little girl arise. Here is Tabitha get up.

00:35:26.660 --> 00:35:30.660
She opened her eyes and seeing Peter she sat up.

00:35:30.660 --> 00:35:34.660
He took her by the hand and helped her to her feet. Then he called

00:35:34.660 --> 00:35:38.660
the believers and widows and presented her to them alive. This became known all over Joppa.

00:35:38.660 --> 00:35:42.660
And many people believed in the Lord. Peter stayed in Joppa for some more time with

00:35:42.660 --> 00:35:46.660
a tanner named Simon. In Joppa many people believed. In Lida and

00:35:46.660 --> 00:35:50.660
Sharon all believed.

00:35:50.660 --> 00:35:54.660
Signs and wonders helped people bring, helped

00:35:54.660 --> 00:35:58.660
bring people to the Lord. In Acts, in the book of Acts there are 17

00:35:58.660 --> 00:36:02.660
times when signs of miracles resulted in

00:36:02.660 --> 00:36:06.660
conversion. 28 chapters

00:36:06.660 --> 00:36:10.660
17 times where some sign of miracle performed by an apostle or a disciple

00:36:10.660 --> 00:36:14.660
ended up leading to conversion.

00:36:14.660 --> 00:36:18.660
This is critical for our existence.

00:36:18.660 --> 00:36:22.660
I certainly intend to press

00:36:22.660 --> 00:36:26.660
into this as a church. This is critical

00:36:26.660 --> 00:36:30.660
at this particular phase in our life. More knowledge, more teaching

00:36:30.660 --> 00:36:34.660
just gives us a whole lot of information that

00:36:34.660 --> 00:36:38.660
is good but we have everything we need

00:36:38.660 --> 00:36:42.660
for this present revival. There's nothing more you can teach about revival.

00:36:42.660 --> 00:36:46.660
Ha ha ha

00:36:50.660 --> 00:36:54.660
Signs and wonders are God's witness to His word.

00:36:54.660 --> 00:36:58.660
Signs and wonders are God's witness to His word. I love that.

00:36:58.660 --> 00:37:02.660
Signs and wonders are God's witness to His word. I want to give

00:37:02.660 --> 00:37:06.660
evidence for my word. And so I am

00:37:06.660 --> 00:37:10.660
giving you signs and wonders from me so that they witness

00:37:10.660 --> 00:37:14.660
to the word that I preach. And there's no other passage that

00:37:14.660 --> 00:37:18.660
perhaps explains it better than Mark 16

00:37:18.660 --> 00:37:22.660
verse 20. Mark 16 verse 20

00:37:22.660 --> 00:37:26.660
just sums it up so beautifully.

00:37:26.660 --> 00:37:30.660
Mark 16 verse 20. Then the disciples

00:37:30.660 --> 00:37:34.660
went out and preached everywhere.

00:37:34.660 --> 00:37:38.660
And the Lord worked with them and confirmed His

00:37:38.660 --> 00:37:42.660
word by signs that accompanied it.

00:37:42.660 --> 00:37:46.660
Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere and the Lord worked

00:37:46.660 --> 00:37:50.660
with them and confirmed His word by the signs that

00:37:50.660 --> 00:37:54.660
accompanied it. Paul would describe His

00:37:54.660 --> 00:37:58.660
mission as Christ working through Him. I love the phrase

00:37:58.660 --> 00:38:02.660
that he uses in Romans chapter 15, 18 and 19.

00:38:02.660 --> 00:38:06.660
Paul described His mission as Christ working through Him by word

00:38:06.660 --> 00:38:10.660
and deed

00:38:10.660 --> 00:38:14.660
by word and deed.

00:38:14.660 --> 00:38:18.660
And then he goes on to say that's one. In the power

00:38:18.660 --> 00:38:22.660
of signs and wonders

00:38:26.660 --> 00:38:30.660
by the power of the Spirit.

00:38:30.660 --> 00:38:34.660
Beautiful, eh?

00:38:34.660 --> 00:38:38.660
Wouldn't it be awesome if you

00:38:38.660 --> 00:38:42.660
and I as a church could say this? That our mission

00:38:42.660 --> 00:38:46.660
our work, our mission is

00:38:46.660 --> 00:38:50.660
by word and deed. It's not just word

00:38:50.660 --> 00:38:54.660
it's by word and deed. And then

00:38:54.660 --> 00:38:58.660
the word and deed is by the power of

00:38:58.660 --> 00:39:02.660
signs and wonders. And then it is by the power

00:39:02.660 --> 00:39:06.660
of the Spirit. Go to Romans 15, 18 and 19.

00:39:10.660 --> 00:39:14.660
Guys, the reason I'm going over the

00:39:14.660 --> 00:39:18.660
why of signs and wonders is because

00:39:18.660 --> 00:39:22.660
if I don't have the word of God to

00:39:22.660 --> 00:39:26.660
stand on or to testify that this is how it works

00:39:26.660 --> 00:39:30.660
then I don't have anything. Then all I have is wishful thinking. Then all I have

00:39:30.660 --> 00:39:34.660
is I hope this happens. It's a 50-50 thing. Maybe

00:39:34.660 --> 00:39:38.660
God will do it. Maybe He won't. He's sovereign. He can do whatever He

00:39:38.660 --> 00:39:42.660
wants. Now, but once we see a pattern in the

00:39:42.660 --> 00:39:46.660
word that holds consistently, now you

00:39:46.660 --> 00:39:50.660
have something solid to stand on when things work and when

00:39:50.660 --> 00:39:54.660
things don't work. Expectation is not dashed

00:39:54.660 --> 00:39:58.660
when the word is solid. It is when

00:39:58.660 --> 00:40:02.660
the word is not solid or when you are not solid on the word. One or the other.

00:40:02.660 --> 00:40:06.660
When the word is not solid as in you do not have anything to stand on

00:40:06.660 --> 00:40:10.660
or when you are not solid on the word as in it is there but you don't know how to stand

00:40:10.660 --> 00:40:14.660
in it. Then expectations

00:40:14.660 --> 00:40:18.660
flux because when things go well expectations are high. When things don't go well

00:40:18.660 --> 00:40:22.660
you abandon the thought. But once we find a pattern that

00:40:22.660 --> 00:40:26.660
is consistent you know that expectations can always remain on

00:40:26.660 --> 00:40:30.660
a high because there's a pattern in here.

00:40:30.660 --> 00:40:34.660
And so when things don't happen it doesn't be funnel you at all.

00:40:34.660 --> 00:40:38.660
You just go back to the blueprint and say, okay, what do I need to do? Where do I need to

00:40:38.660 --> 00:40:42.660
change? What do I need to adjust? Where do I need to go?

00:40:42.660 --> 00:40:46.660
Romans 15 was 18 and

00:40:46.660 --> 00:40:50.660
19.

00:40:50.660 --> 00:40:54.660
Therefore I

00:40:54.660 --> 00:40:58.660
glory in Christ Jesus in my service to God. I will not venture

00:40:58.660 --> 00:41:02.660
to speak of anything except what Christ has accomplished through me

00:41:02.660 --> 00:41:06.660
in leading the Gentiles to obey God by what I have said and done.

00:41:06.660 --> 00:41:10.660
That's a word indeed. What I have said and done. It's not just

00:41:10.660 --> 00:41:14.660
said. It's said and done.

00:41:14.660 --> 00:41:18.660
By what I have said and done, by the power of

00:41:18.660 --> 00:41:22.660
signs and miracles, through the power of the Spirit. What I have said and done

00:41:22.660 --> 00:41:26.660
by the power of signs and miracles. What I have

00:41:26.660 --> 00:41:30.660
said and done by the power of signs and miracles. Paul is literally

00:41:30.660 --> 00:41:34.660
saying that listen I said things to you but I just didn't leave it at saying.

00:41:34.660 --> 00:41:38.660
I demonstrated it through the power of signs and miracles. And the

00:41:38.660 --> 00:41:42.660
power of signs and miracles wasn't mine but it came

00:41:42.660 --> 00:41:46.660
through a demonstration of the power of the Holy Spirit.

00:41:48.660 --> 00:41:52.660
What a beautiful sequence of events man.

00:41:52.660 --> 00:41:56.660
And this pattern is repeated again and again and again.

00:41:56.660 --> 00:42:00.660
As I said earlier, Jesus authenticated

00:42:00.660 --> 00:42:04.660
His messiahship through signs and wonders.

00:42:04.660 --> 00:42:08.660
Go to Matthew 11. Matthew 11 verse 4 and 5.

00:42:08.660 --> 00:42:12.660
Matthew 11 verse 4 and 5.

00:42:12.660 --> 00:42:16.660
Jesus replied,

00:42:16.660 --> 00:42:20.660
go back and report verse 2.

00:42:20.660 --> 00:42:24.660
When John heard in prison what Christ was doing, he sent his disciples to ask him,

00:42:24.660 --> 00:42:28.660
are you the one who was to come or should we expect someone else?

00:42:28.660 --> 00:42:32.660
As in are you the messiah? Jesus replied, go back and report to John what you hear

00:42:32.660 --> 00:42:36.660
and what you see. Said and done. Word and deed.

00:42:36.660 --> 00:42:40.660
What you hear and what you see. The blind receive sight, the lame walk,

00:42:40.660 --> 00:42:44.660
those who have leprosy are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised

00:42:44.660 --> 00:42:48.660
and the good news is preached to the poor. Blessed is the man who does not fall away

00:42:48.660 --> 00:42:52.660
on account of me. So here's a question I just want to ask right off the bat.

00:42:52.660 --> 00:42:56.660
Have you seen any blind that have received sight?

00:42:56.660 --> 00:43:00.660
I've seen partial sight. I've never seen a totally blind man receive sight. I have not.

00:43:00.660 --> 00:43:04.660
Have you seen the lame walk? Yes. It was the first miracle I saw.

00:43:04.660 --> 00:43:08.660
I was in a church in Bahrain and

00:43:08.660 --> 00:43:12.660
Chantel's dad was a pastor then and a Muslim man came into the

00:43:12.660 --> 00:43:16.660
church. Someone had brought him and there was a

00:43:16.660 --> 00:43:20.660
guest speaker and this man came with a crutch and he was lame.

00:43:20.660 --> 00:43:24.660
I used to lead worship and I'm standing there so it was not a second hand account.

00:43:24.660 --> 00:43:28.660
The man came and the preacher prayed for him and then

00:43:28.660 --> 00:43:32.660
gently took his crutch and took it away and told the man to walk.

00:43:32.660 --> 00:43:36.660
The man started walking. It was the first time I'd seen the lame walk.

00:43:36.660 --> 00:43:40.660
Until then I've seen the lame walk a few times. I've seen

00:43:40.660 --> 00:43:44.660
the lame walk.

00:43:44.660 --> 00:43:48.660
Once in a city called Bath in the UK

00:43:48.660 --> 00:43:52.660
I prayed for a man who had a leg

00:43:52.660 --> 00:43:56.660
that was short and he couldn't walk and he started walking.

00:43:56.660 --> 00:44:00.660
My sister was there, my brother-in-law was there, a whole lot of other people were there.

00:44:00.660 --> 00:44:04.660
I've seen the lame walk. I haven't seen the blind receive full sight.

00:44:04.660 --> 00:44:08.660
Just partial sight. Leprosy cured?

00:44:08.660 --> 00:44:12.660
No, I haven't. Skin disease cured? Yes.

00:44:12.660 --> 00:44:16.660
Many times. The deaf hear?

00:44:16.660 --> 00:44:20.660
Oh yes. Dead raised?

00:44:20.660 --> 00:44:24.660
Once.

00:44:24.660 --> 00:44:28.660
Good news reached to the poor? I wish it was happening

00:44:28.660 --> 00:44:32.660
every day through my life but it isn't.

00:44:32.660 --> 00:44:36.660
If I were to have a church that is full and ask the same questions

00:44:36.660 --> 00:44:40.660
many of you would raise your hands.

00:44:40.660 --> 00:44:44.660
Many others would raise their hands. What I'm trying to say is guys

00:44:44.660 --> 00:44:48.660
this is not some pie in the sky thing for us.

00:44:48.660 --> 00:44:52.660
This is real.

00:44:52.660 --> 00:44:56.660
This is not some rah rah thing to make it happen.

00:44:56.660 --> 00:45:00.660
This is very real.

00:45:00.660 --> 00:45:04.660
Mike

00:45:04.660 --> 00:45:08.660
you'll have to sing the song

00:45:08.660 --> 00:45:12.660
I believe in Jesus, I believe you are the son of God

00:45:12.660 --> 00:45:16.660
not the other song. So you can pull out the chords on that one.

00:45:16.660 --> 00:45:20.660
Eric Reimer

00:45:20.660 --> 00:45:24.660
I recall Jacob praying for... Thanks Eric!

00:45:24.660 --> 00:45:28.660
Yeah you're right. I saw a blind person who

00:45:28.660 --> 00:45:32.660
was blind see. It was Santosh's wife Sajni

00:45:32.660 --> 00:45:36.660
she had gone totally blind for 10 days and I

00:45:36.660 --> 00:45:40.660
remember praying for her and God showed us what the root was

00:45:40.660 --> 00:45:44.660
and man right there and then it was like scales

00:45:44.660 --> 00:45:48.660
falling off Paul's eyes and

00:45:48.660 --> 00:45:52.660
80 to 90 percent of her sight was restored immediately

00:45:52.660 --> 00:45:56.660
and the 10 to 20 percent was restored in 3 days. Thanks Eric!

00:45:56.660 --> 00:46:00.660
Yeah man

00:46:00.660 --> 00:46:04.660
Of course I forgot

00:46:04.660 --> 00:46:08.660
Isn't it great when you forget miracles?

00:46:08.660 --> 00:46:12.660
Like what I meant is it's not great but it's great because

00:46:12.660 --> 00:46:16.660
you may have seen one or two more than you thought.

00:46:16.660 --> 00:46:20.660
So

00:46:20.660 --> 00:46:24.660
one of the things signs and wonders do is they

00:46:24.660 --> 00:46:28.660
mightily demonstrate the power of God

00:46:28.660 --> 00:46:32.660
and it compels people to look, it compels people to listen

00:46:32.660 --> 00:46:36.660
it shatters cynicism, it shatters

00:46:36.660 --> 00:46:40.660
disinterest. It's very hard man to see a miracle

00:46:40.660 --> 00:46:44.660
and pretend disinterest or

00:46:44.660 --> 00:46:48.660
cynicism perhaps may continue because people are skeptical about these things.

00:46:48.660 --> 00:46:52.660
Part of the reason people are skeptical is because

00:46:52.660 --> 00:46:56.660
of these authentic healings.

00:46:56.660 --> 00:47:00.660
Like I used to share the story of a child in Mongolia

00:47:00.660 --> 00:47:04.660
whose eyes were healed and I carried the picture

00:47:04.660 --> 00:47:08.660
on my phone for quite a while

00:47:08.660 --> 00:47:12.660
and then I went back to Mongolia and I found that the child's eyes

00:47:12.660 --> 00:47:16.660
were still bad. What I had seen happen overnight and I would show those

00:47:16.660 --> 00:47:20.660
pictures and I would show it to many people to see and you could see the difference

00:47:20.660 --> 00:47:24.660
in the picture. When I went back and I found that the child's eyes hadn't recovered

00:47:24.660 --> 00:47:28.660
and the child's eyesight was still bad, I deleted that photograph

00:47:28.660 --> 00:47:32.660
from my phone and I haven't spoken about it since because one of the

00:47:32.660 --> 00:47:36.660
things that happens in Christianity is we pray in faith

00:47:36.660 --> 00:47:40.660
and then use our faith to now presume that everything is fine

00:47:40.660 --> 00:47:44.660
when medically nothing may have changed. And that kind of

00:47:44.660 --> 00:47:48.660
inauthenticity is hurting Christianity because people get

00:47:48.660 --> 00:47:52.660
more and more skeptical.

00:47:52.660 --> 00:47:56.660
I was watching someone pray for someone on TV and they prayed for the person and said your

00:47:56.660 --> 00:48:00.660
pressure has gone down and your diabetes has disappeared and then the person fell and

00:48:00.660 --> 00:48:04.660
the person moved on. And while I'm glad that the person had faith

00:48:04.660 --> 00:48:08.660
to pray for it and perhaps it happened, that is sometimes

00:48:08.660 --> 00:48:12.660
what raises skepticism.

00:48:12.660 --> 00:48:16.660
Our prayer got that

00:48:16.660 --> 00:48:20.660
we have a way to send people

00:48:20.660 --> 00:48:24.660
to priest, to make sure that the leprosy is gone and a sacrifice

00:48:24.660 --> 00:48:28.660
is offered. Because authentic miracles

00:48:28.660 --> 00:48:32.660
can't deny them man. And that's the kind that Jesus wants to do

00:48:32.660 --> 00:48:36.660
because he never did anything not authentic.

00:48:36.660 --> 00:48:40.660
You know I don't think any of us

00:48:40.660 --> 00:48:44.660
are not persuaded that God does miracles,

00:48:44.660 --> 00:48:48.660
signs and wonders. It is just that we are not convinced that it is through us.

00:48:48.660 --> 00:48:52.660
So I remember many years ago when Roland Tan first came to

00:48:52.660 --> 00:48:56.660
Vancouver, I met a man who was in a wheelchair

00:48:56.660 --> 00:49:00.660
and I pushed him to the side of the room

00:49:00.660 --> 00:49:04.660
and I said, I'm going to pray for you.

00:49:04.660 --> 00:49:08.660
And I pushed him for more than a kilometer

00:49:08.660 --> 00:49:12.660
and a half but I didn't have the courage to pray

00:49:12.660 --> 00:49:16.660
for him. But I wanted to take him to Roland because I knew

00:49:16.660 --> 00:49:20.660
God heals, I knew God does miracles, I knew God

00:49:20.660 --> 00:49:24.660
raises people out of wheelchairs. But I wasn't convinced that I could do it

00:49:24.660 --> 00:49:28.660
but because Roland was in town I was taking him to Roland.

00:49:28.660 --> 00:49:32.660
And I think many of us are in that boat

00:49:32.660 --> 00:49:36.660
where we are convinced of miracles as long as we have someone else to take

00:49:36.660 --> 00:49:40.660
people to. But I want us as a church, and when I say

00:49:40.660 --> 00:49:44.660
church I mean anybody and everybody connected to us, I want us as a

00:49:44.660 --> 00:49:48.660
church not as a person or two people

00:49:48.660 --> 00:49:52.660
that has the confidence to walk in

00:49:52.660 --> 00:49:56.660
signs, miracles and wonders. While I don't take away from the fact

00:49:56.660 --> 00:50:00.660
that there are those amongst us that are gifted in the gifts of healings,

00:50:00.660 --> 00:50:04.660
I'm talking about us as a church beginning to operate like this.

00:50:04.660 --> 00:50:08.660
The other thing that really caught me is Jesus wouldn't

00:50:08.660 --> 00:50:12.660
command us to go preach saying the kingdom of God is

00:50:12.660 --> 00:50:16.660
at hand, heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons.

00:50:16.660 --> 00:50:20.660
He wouldn't command us that if he didn't have intents of backing it.

00:50:20.660 --> 00:50:24.660
That gave me a lot of confidence that okay, if God is saying

00:50:24.660 --> 00:50:28.660
listen, go preach the good news, say that the kingdom of God is at hand,

00:50:28.660 --> 00:50:32.660
heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, cast out demons,

00:50:32.660 --> 00:50:36.660
all ways of restoring

00:50:36.660 --> 00:50:40.660
order back to the earth like he had so beautifully constructed it,

00:50:40.660 --> 00:50:44.660
all ending brokenness. If he's telling me to go and do it, then I expect him to

00:50:44.660 --> 00:50:48.660
back me up because he's giving a command. Really? He'd give me a command to do something and not

00:50:48.660 --> 00:50:52.660
back me up in it?

00:50:52.660 --> 00:50:56.660
I just don't see that Jesus.

00:50:56.660 --> 00:51:00.660
When has he ever commanded something and said,

00:51:00.660 --> 00:51:04.660
go now and do thus and I will be with you to the ends of the ages?

00:51:04.660 --> 00:51:08.660
Not really. He doesn't do that, he backs you up.

00:51:08.660 --> 00:51:12.660
Let me end.

00:51:12.660 --> 00:51:16.660
Tomorrow we'll talk about the how. Hopefully we'll have

00:51:16.660 --> 00:51:20.660
enough to be out on the

00:51:20.660 --> 00:51:24.660
streets.

00:51:24.660 --> 00:51:30.660
You know,

00:51:30.660 --> 00:51:34.660
there are arguments that can be brought up against what I've just said. One of the arguments is

00:51:34.660 --> 00:51:38.660
that most of these things Jesus commanded only the apostles.

00:51:38.660 --> 00:51:42.660
And yes, signs, miracles and wonders are

00:51:42.660 --> 00:51:46.660
evidence of

00:51:46.660 --> 00:51:50.660
apostleship. You read about that in 2 Corinthians 12.12.

00:51:50.660 --> 00:51:54.660
That's often used by people saying, all these

00:51:54.660 --> 00:51:58.660
points you made were specific commands given to apostles.

00:51:58.660 --> 00:52:02.660
Paul talks about it in 2 Corinthians 12.12 where he says that

00:52:02.660 --> 00:52:06.660
I'm not inferior to any of these super apostles. The things that mark an

00:52:06.660 --> 00:52:10.660
apostle, signs, wonders and miracles, were done among you with great perseverance.

00:52:10.660 --> 00:52:14.660
He says that in 2 Corinthians 12.12. So it's easy to then conclude

00:52:14.660 --> 00:52:18.660
that since we are not called to be apostles, this is not exactly

00:52:18.660 --> 00:52:22.660
acapetit. But then what would you say about the 70 in Luke

00:52:22.660 --> 00:52:26.660
10 verse 9?

00:52:26.660 --> 00:52:30.660
What would you say about the 70? The 70 were not apostles. They were sent out.

00:52:30.660 --> 00:52:34.660
But isn't the church exactly supposed to do that?

00:52:34.660 --> 00:52:38.660
Be sent out? No, but Jesus called the 70.

00:52:38.660 --> 00:52:42.660
So are you saying Jesus hasn't called you to do things like this?

00:52:42.660 --> 00:52:46.660
By the way, what do you do with Isaiah 61?

00:52:46.660 --> 00:52:50.660
The Spirit of the Lord has upon me,

00:52:50.660 --> 00:52:54.660
for he has anointed me to preach the good news to the poor,

00:52:54.660 --> 00:52:58.660
to open the eyes of the blind, to set the captives free, to release those that are in bondage.

00:52:58.660 --> 00:53:02.660
What do you do with that?

00:53:02.660 --> 00:53:06.660
Luke 10 verse 9.

00:53:06.660 --> 00:53:10.660
Not 9, Luke 10 verse 9.

00:53:10.660 --> 00:53:14.660
It's basically the 70. Where is it?

00:53:14.660 --> 00:53:18.660
Yeah, it should be there.

00:53:18.660 --> 00:53:22.660
After that the Lord appointed 72 others and sent them two by two ahead of

00:53:22.660 --> 00:53:26.660
him to every town and place where he was about to go. He told them the harvest is

00:53:26.660 --> 00:53:30.660
plentiful. I'm sending you out

00:53:30.660 --> 00:53:34.660
like lambs among wolves. And then he goes on to say in verse 9,

00:53:34.660 --> 00:53:38.660
Heal the sick who are there. Tell them the kingdom of God is near.

00:53:38.660 --> 00:53:42.660
And so in the case of the 70, he had no problem sending

00:53:42.660 --> 00:53:46.660
them. So it was not just the apostles. What about Stephen?

00:53:46.660 --> 00:53:50.660
In Acts chapter 6 verse 8. Stephen, Acts chapter 6 verse 8.

00:53:50.660 --> 00:53:54.660
He wasn't an apostle. He was a deacon but full of the Holy Spirit.

00:53:54.660 --> 00:53:58.660
Acts chapter 6 verse 8.

00:53:58.660 --> 00:54:02.660
Now Stephen was a man full of God's grace and power

00:54:02.660 --> 00:54:06.660
and he did great wonders and miraculous signs amongst the people.

00:54:06.660 --> 00:54:10.660
What about the church in Galatia?

00:54:10.660 --> 00:54:14.660
Go to Galatians chapter 3 verse 5. I love it.

00:54:14.660 --> 00:54:18.660
We go from people to a whole blooming church. Galatians chapter 3 verse 5.

00:54:26.660 --> 00:54:30.660
He's actually rebuking them but in the process of the rebuke you see

00:54:30.660 --> 00:54:34.660
something that the church actually had. Verse 4 and 5.

00:54:34.660 --> 00:54:38.660
Have you suffered so much for nothing? If it really was for nothing, does God give you

00:54:38.660 --> 00:54:42.660
miracles among you because you observe the law or because you believe what you heard?

00:54:42.660 --> 00:54:46.660
That was a church that was quite accustomed to miracles amongst them.

00:54:46.660 --> 00:54:50.660
And through them. What about the

00:54:50.660 --> 00:54:54.660
gift of healing in 1 Corinthians 12.9? Isn't that given to

00:54:54.660 --> 00:54:58.660
the church at large? Different people, different gifts.

00:54:58.660 --> 00:55:02.660
But one of the gifts given is the gift of healing. 1 Corinthians 12.9.

00:55:02.660 --> 00:55:06.660
Where it says to one is given through the spirit the message of wisdom

00:55:06.660 --> 00:55:10.660
to another the message of knowledge by the same spirit to another the

00:55:10.660 --> 00:55:14.660
faith by the same spirit to another gifts of healing

00:55:14.660 --> 00:55:18.660
by that one spirit to another miraculous powers

00:55:18.660 --> 00:55:22.660
gifts of healing and miraculous powers

00:55:22.660 --> 00:55:26.660
present in the church given by the spirit as he desires.

00:55:26.660 --> 00:55:30.660
So we can't confirm that the

00:55:30.660 --> 00:55:34.660
So we can't confine this to oh this was only to the

00:55:34.660 --> 00:55:38.660
apostles. Naturally the apostles were the one he was training so that's

00:55:38.660 --> 00:55:42.660
where he'll start. Unfortunately I know apostles who said this was

00:55:42.660 --> 00:55:46.660
the commission given to them that Matthew 10 is only for apostles.

00:55:46.660 --> 00:55:50.660
I just, what a way to undo the rest of the church.

00:55:50.660 --> 00:55:54.660
So we don't have clergy lately, now we have apostles and the rest.

00:55:54.660 --> 00:55:58.660
The other argument that is

00:55:58.660 --> 00:56:02.660
very commonly heard is

00:56:02.660 --> 00:56:06.660
and these are arguments we make so that we don't have to believe

00:56:06.660 --> 00:56:10.660
for signs, miracles and wonders or because we have come to a place where we are no longer

00:56:10.660 --> 00:56:14.660
we don't think the Holy Spirit uses

00:56:14.660 --> 00:56:18.660
his gifts as in cessationists. So another argument that's often used is

00:56:18.660 --> 00:56:22.660
only a wicked and adulterous generation looks for signs.

00:56:22.660 --> 00:56:26.660
Matthew 16 verse 4, only a wicked and adulterous generation looks for signs.

00:56:26.660 --> 00:56:30.660
And the context is the Pharisees and Sadducees come to Jesus

00:56:30.660 --> 00:56:34.660
and they say to him, give us evidence, we want to test you. Give us

00:56:34.660 --> 00:56:38.660
evidence to show that you are who you say you are. And it is in that context

00:56:38.660 --> 00:56:42.660
that Jesus says only a wicked and adulterous generation seeks

00:56:42.660 --> 00:56:46.660
signs. And so yeah, it is true. If

00:56:46.660 --> 00:56:50.660
you are demanding more evidence because

00:56:50.660 --> 00:56:54.660
your heart is resistant and you are unbelieving, yes

00:56:54.660 --> 00:56:58.660
Jesus is not going to jump off a steeple for you

00:56:58.660 --> 00:57:02.660
nor am I.

00:57:02.660 --> 00:57:06.660
That is when a wicked and adulterous generation asks for signs.

00:57:06.660 --> 00:57:10.660
If your Jesus can't do this then I don't believe in. Jesus will still do it for you

00:57:10.660 --> 00:57:14.660
because you are compassionate but don't try it a second time.

00:57:14.660 --> 00:57:18.660
Guys,

00:57:18.660 --> 00:57:22.660
we live in a fallen world where

00:57:22.660 --> 00:57:26.660
suffering is there, pain is there, tears are there, death will continue

00:57:26.660 --> 00:57:30.660
till Revelation 21,4. Revelation 21,4 is a consummation

00:57:30.660 --> 00:57:34.660
but Jesus is working towards it. And one of the reasons he has a

00:57:34.660 --> 00:57:38.660
church here on earth is so that he has a people through whom he can work towards it.

00:57:38.660 --> 00:57:42.660
My God, man, what's one of the reasons the church exists? In the middle of decaying

00:57:42.660 --> 00:57:46.660
earth, he's set apart for himself a colony of people

00:57:46.660 --> 00:57:50.660
in whose midst he dwells and through whose midst he wants to show

00:57:50.660 --> 00:57:54.660
that a kingdom that was supposed to be kept for the end has broken in right now

00:57:54.660 --> 00:57:58.660
and through this people he wants to show that I'm already restoring.

00:57:58.660 --> 00:58:02.660
That's what he's doing. And if the people that he's in the midst of

00:58:02.660 --> 00:58:06.660
say that, nah, nah, nah, this is all for the future

00:58:06.660 --> 00:58:10.660
then it's a shame, man.

00:58:10.660 --> 00:58:14.660
Yes, there will come a time in Revelation 21,4

00:58:14.660 --> 00:58:18.660
where it says that there will be, he will wipe every

00:58:18.660 --> 00:58:22.660
tear from their eyes, there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain

00:58:22.660 --> 00:58:26.660
for the old aura of things has passed away.

00:58:26.660 --> 00:58:30.660
Right now, it is passing away.

00:58:30.660 --> 00:58:34.660
It has not passed away fully but it is passing away. Why?

00:58:34.660 --> 00:58:38.660
Because the day Jesus landed on earth, he was

00:58:38.660 --> 00:58:42.660
a king of the world, because the day Jesus landed on earth and inaugurated the kingdom

00:58:42.660 --> 00:58:46.660
and he opened the scroll and read out of it, a kingdom from the future

00:58:46.660 --> 00:58:50.660
broke into the present and since then, restoration has begun.

00:58:50.660 --> 00:58:54.660
We are the sample to the earth

00:58:54.660 --> 00:58:58.660
saying taste and see, this is what it looks like. Taste and see

00:58:58.660 --> 00:59:02.660
death becomes life. Taste and see, sickness becomes healing. Taste

00:59:02.660 --> 00:59:06.660
and see, natural order being replaced, overridden

00:59:06.660 --> 00:59:10.660
violated by a superior supernatural order. Taste and see

00:59:10.660 --> 00:59:14.660
and so sometimes it doesn't matter

00:59:14.660 --> 00:59:18.660
that you may be in the midst of suffering because even though

00:59:18.660 --> 00:59:22.660
you are suffering, signs will flow through you for others.

00:59:22.660 --> 00:59:26.660
If you read Paul's

00:59:26.660 --> 00:59:30.660
condition as he does miracle signs and wonders, you read about

00:59:30.660 --> 00:59:34.660
what's happening to him in 2 Corinthians 6, at times he says

00:59:34.660 --> 00:59:38.660
wild negros are being attacked by wild beasts.

00:59:38.660 --> 00:59:42.660
He says that famous song, right?

00:59:42.660 --> 00:59:46.660
Persecuted, not abandoned, crushed

00:59:46.660 --> 00:59:50.660
but not destroyed and so on. In the midst

00:59:50.660 --> 00:59:54.660
of that, this man is flowing in signs, miracles and wonders.

00:59:54.660 --> 00:59:58.660
Because we have a tendency to say, oh this world is a world of suffering

00:59:58.660 --> 01:00:02.660
we just need to take this suffering and we shouldn't expect signs and miracles and wonders

01:00:02.660 --> 01:00:06.660
because it's too triumphalistic or victorious. I'm not preaching this to

01:00:06.660 --> 01:00:10.660
Axemanians, I'm preaching this to many who may think like this.

01:00:10.660 --> 01:00:14.660
But in the midst of your suffering, let

01:00:14.660 --> 01:00:18.660
healing, miracles, signs and wonders flow through you for the sake of someone else.

01:00:22.660 --> 01:00:26.660
In 1999 when I was in Bahrain and my dad was dying

01:00:26.660 --> 01:00:30.660
every evening I would go and preach in the church

01:00:30.660 --> 01:00:34.660
and signs and wonders would happen. Healings would happen like

01:00:34.660 --> 01:00:38.660
it was fascinating how many healings were happening. I'd go

01:00:38.660 --> 01:00:42.660
back to the hospital and then sit the night with my dad because he was in a coma.

01:00:42.660 --> 01:00:46.660
And I'd scratch my head thinking how come he's in a coma

01:00:46.660 --> 01:00:50.660
while others are getting healed. And then one night I go and he dies.

01:00:50.660 --> 01:00:54.660
And now he's dead. And the next day I was supposed to do the meeting and I went back to the meeting.

01:00:54.660 --> 01:00:58.660
Not some stoic, heroic, Christian endeavor.

01:00:58.660 --> 01:01:02.660
It was the most natural thing to do. My dad is dead.

01:01:02.660 --> 01:01:06.660
I've wept for him for a while. Go for this meeting, finish the meeting. Guess what's happening in the meeting?

01:01:06.660 --> 01:01:10.660
Again signs and wonders are flowing. How do I feel in my heart? Hurt.

01:01:10.660 --> 01:01:14.660
How do I feel in my heart? Even bitter with God. How does God

01:01:14.660 --> 01:01:18.660
feel? Hey, since you're here I might as well use you to let

01:01:18.660 --> 01:01:22.660
continue the flow of signs, miracles and wonders so that people

01:01:22.660 --> 01:01:26.660
that are gathered here can get a taste of what the kingdom of God that has broken

01:01:26.660 --> 01:01:30.660
into the earth looks like right now even though you may be going through suffering.

01:01:30.660 --> 01:01:34.660
So please guys, let's not think that our sufferings are going to stop Jesus

01:01:34.660 --> 01:01:38.660
from using us in the midst of our suffering to bring healing to others.

01:01:44.660 --> 01:01:48.660
That's the why. Tomorrow we'll talk about the how.

01:01:48.660 --> 01:01:52.660
Cool. Any questions?

01:01:52.660 --> 01:01:56.660
Somehow I'd rather drink out of a bottle. Couldn't you find

01:01:56.660 --> 01:02:00.660
a bottle that you could put this water in?

01:02:00.660 --> 01:02:04.660
It is good water?

01:02:10.660 --> 01:02:14.660
Any questions guys? Anybody?

01:02:14.660 --> 01:02:18.660
Okay, we'll have Mike come up and sing that song.

01:02:18.660 --> 01:02:22.660
Really old song. I thought it would just fit his age.

01:02:22.660 --> 01:02:26.660
And so he'll sing that one.

01:02:48.660 --> 01:02:52.660
