Dr. Schaap Preaches Thursday at Pastors' School 2010

that's great ah this has been a wonderful night I believe the Bible skills is something about giving honor two monitors do and I don't mean me I'm talking about these wonderful people we got to honor tonight we have been challenged and convicted and provoked and and we have been warmed by the the love of people who have given themselves on behalf of Christ for the whole world and to the whole world is something very christ-like when a man gives himself sacrificially for other people there's a lot of cross kind of love in that and so thank you for honoring some very special people that are dear to me and I know are dear to you as well which take your Bibles please and turn to the book of 2nd Corinthians chapter 5 second Corinthians chapter 5 beginning in verse 4 we find these words for the love of christ constraineth us because we thus judge that if one died for all then were all dead and that he died for all that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves but unto Him which died for them and rose again wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh a though we have known Christ after the flesh yet now henceforth know we him no more therefore if any man be in Christ he is a new creature old things are passed away behold all things have become new and all things are of God who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ and have given to us the Ministry of reconciliation to wit that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself not imputing their trespasses unto them and have committed unto us the word of reconciliation now then we are ambassadors for Christ as though God did beseech you by us we pray you in Christ's stead be reconciled to God for he hath made him to be sin for us who knew no sin that we might be made the righteousness of God in him would you turn your attention to the iMacs please for a brief video according to research in order for a culture to maintain itself for more than 25 years there must be a fertility rate of 2.11 children per family with anything less the culture will decline historically no culture has ever reversed a 1.9 fertility rate a rate of 1.3 impossible to reverse because it would take 80 to 100 years to correct itself and there is no economic model that can sustain a culture during that time in other words if two sets of parents each have one child there are half as many children as parents if those children have one child then there are one-fourth as many grandchildren as Grandparents if only a million babies are born in 2006 it's hard to have 2 million adults out of the workforce in 2026 as the population shrinks so does the culture as of 2007 the fertility rate in France was 1.8 England 1.6 Greece 1.3 Germany 1.3 Italy 1.2 Spain 1.1 across the european union of 31 countries the fertility is a mere 1.38 historical research tells us that these numbers are impossible to reverse in a matter of years Europe as we know it will cease to exist yet the population of Europe is not declining why immigration Islamic immigration of all population growth in Europe since 1990 90 percent has been Islamic immigration France 1.8 children per family Muslims 8.1 in southern France traditionally one of the most populated church regions in the world there are now more mosques than churches 30 percent of children ages 20 and younger are Islamic in the larger cities such as nice masae and Paris that number has grown to 45 percent by 2027 one in five Frenchmen will be Muslim in just 39 years France will be an Islamic Republic in the last 30 years the Muslim population of Great Britain rose from 80 mm to 2.5 million a 30-fold increase there are over 1000 mosques many of them former churches in the Netherlands 50% of all newborns are Muslim and in only 15 years half of the population in the Netherlands will be Muslim in Russia there are over twenty three million Muslims that's one out of five Russians 40% of the entire Russian army will be Muslim in just a few short years currently in Belgium 25% of the population and 50% of all newborns are Muslim the government of Belgium has stated one third of all European children will be born to Muslim families by 2025 just 17 years away the German government the first to talk about this publicly recently released a statement saying the fall of the German population can no longer be stopped its downward spiral is no longer reversible it will be a Muslim state by the year 2050 Muammar al-gaddafi of Libya said there are signs that Allah will grant victory to Islam in Europe without swords without guns without conquest we don't need terrorists we don't need homicide bombers the 50-plus million Muslims in Europe will turn it into a Muslim continent within a few decades there are currently 52 million Muslims in Europe the German government said that number is expected to double in the next 20 years to 104 million closer to home the numbers tell a similar story right now Canada's fertility rate is 1.6 nearly a full point below what is required to sustain a culture and Islam is now the fastest-growing religion between 2001 and 2006 Canada's population increased by 1.6 million 1.2 of those immigration in the United States the current fertility rates of American citizens is 1.6 with the influx of Latino nations the rate increases to 2 point 1 1 the bare minimum required to sustain a culture in 1970 there were 100,000 Muslims in America today there are over 9 million the world is changing it's time to wake up three years ago a meeting of 24 Islamic organizations was held in Chicago the transcripts of that meeting showed in detail their plans to evangelize America through journalism politics education and more they said we must prepare ourselves for the reality that in 30 years there will be 50 million Muslims living in America the world that we live in is not the world in which our children and grandchildren will live the Catholic Church recently recorded that Islam has just surpassed their membership numbers some studies show that at Islam's current rate of growth in five to seven years it will be the dominant religion of the world as believers we call upon you to join the effort share the Gospel message with a changing world this is a call to action there are a lot of reasons why you might want to start churches and get evangelizing not the least of which is somebody else is very busy doing it there there's a lot of forces out there that are not as sleepy and dozy as the independent Baptists have been there's a lot of cults and false religions out there and in Islamic faith is more of a cult for even than it is a religion and but that culture is very aggressively working right here in our backyard mosques are popping up everywhere you heard the story yesterday we mentioned it our Tuesday night rather 19,000 churches have been sold in England and there are now more mosques in England than there are churches it's unbelievable and and I mentioned the other day to you that when I mentioned these kinds of statistics are talked about the fact that our there are 88 million more Americans in this work this country than when I started preached in thirty five years ago and yet there are fewer independent baptist churches and those attending those churches are fewer in number and it just seems like to be a blanket that settles down on top the people with a fog and they seem to get fairly how long before he's done well it will be long before we are done because there are peoples in this world there are people's in this world that are very aggressively trying to do in their vain of thinking and culture what we should have been doing so that they wouldn't even have a chance to do that you know independent baptist we are the most tolerant religious group in history we were the ones the Danbury Connecticut Baptists were the ones that wrote Thomas Jefferson to help define a little more clearly what exactly the Constitution was stating when it talked about what we call the freedom of religion and they wanted a clear that nobody should be able to have the only say in in religious affairs that we should have total freedom and that the United States government it was not a wall of separation between church and state they're talking about in the Constitution they didn't want government establishing one particular religion and as the Baptist that prompted that what we're not trying to stamp out a person's right to be to adhere to the Islamic faith you they want to believe that that's their right and or in your religion but what we believe is some of us believe that we do have in our hands a copy of a of a mandate that is about 1980 years old and about 1980 years ago we believe that something called the Great Commission was given to us and we believe that that Great Commission did not fall into disuse and therefore it is no longer a valid or even an important document we believe the Great Commission is still in force today if people's would decide to do something about it you talk about world evangelism as our passage spoke of just a little moment ago we read it in 2nd Corinthians chapter 5 talking about a great statement the love of christ constraineth us and i would be happy for anything to constrain some of you to do anything I'd be happy to the love of Christ or the fear of becoming in Islamic Republic in your grandchildren's lifetime metal granddaughter turned five years old today and if I celebrate with her little birthday and hugged her and exchange gifts and love on her a little bit with the family it occurs to me that the numbers they gave and the dates they set put her at about 3035 years of age when Europe turns into an Islamic Republic and should be about the age where she is birthing junior highers and bringing them into that age of adolescence when this nation will have 50 million Muslims in it and they are busy and aggressive about being sure that we don't find out those facts and information kind of want to quietly and covertly make sure they just over populate the area and just set up those mouths do you realize in London England today they have Sharia law they have separate court systems so that if you are a Muslim you don't get tried in an English Court if you break the law you get tried in a Muslim Court I mean one of the sacred things we have in this country is our court system I mean we can poke fun of the lawyers and laugh at all the lawyer jokes but thank God we've got a system that allows at least it citizen riding innocent till proven guilty and due process is guaranteed to all of us you know what those are very important when you're next under the meat cleaver and the meat grinder and you're about to be ground up and spit out by somebody who wants to put you away thank God for due process but I'm not interested in having a separate set of court system here I'm not interested in in in going on to launch a battle against the Muslims I don't think we ought to get on the email and start warring against the Muslims I don't believe they are even an entity of of anything to worry about if we just simply obey the Great Commission Muslims make wonderful Christians and we've seen thousands of them saved through the Ministry of our college graduates they are hungry keep in mind they are a force to reckon with if we do nothing except watch our churches slide down population soar up and we do nothing yes in that we are going to have a major major major crisis a lot of people who are big into eschatology and the adoption of end times and in things are frightened about the fact that the the seeming sleepiness of the Church of Jesus Christ and the the alertness of the Muslim faith and the people provides a powerful in time scenario is very easy to see the Muslim culture the Muslim race and Islamic religion becoming the dominant religion that exercises absolute control with the power to kill and the will to say we just as soon kill you and blow you up even if it means losing some of our own what's the answer not hate mail what's the answer not a campaign against the Muslims where's the answer now fighter bombing what's the answer now saying I'm moving out of the neighborhood because the Muslims are moving in the answer is not that reactionary fear the answer is found in the two words that make up all of world evangelism those two words are so loved God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life have you said it too much that it lost all this meaning to you have you quoted it so often have you sung about it so often that it is a dreary bleary-eyed verse that has lost its punch his world evangelism nothing more than another appeal for money world evangelism all about love and the kind of love that makes a difference is so loved it does not hate crimes it is not hatred it is not the despising of another religion it is not the antagonism that exists in this country and around the world with different denominations and different religious groups it is a lack of christ-centered love that is causing all this mess because I do not love Jesus Christ enough I will not go and take the gospel anywhere the world dies and goes to hell not because the Muslims are doing something is because the Christians are doing nothing I don't worry about what you saw on that unless you continue to do what you have been doing so loud there is a love that mankind knows for one another but in spite of 6,000 years of man falling into it with his fellow man parents love children and men love women the fact remains more clear today than ever before this world needs a different kind of love I believe the love the world needs is expressed in those two simple words so loved this is a love that moved heaven to send Jesus to earth this is a love that constructed the gospel by the architects of heaven this is a love that drew salvations plan this is a love that motive the grace to bring it down to man this is a love that made Christ Jesus our Lord a willing sacrifice for the sins of you and me and all man Tang this is the kind of love that has the power to transform a life this is the kind of love that can rob hell and populate heaven there is no place where so loves cannot go there is no person that so loves cannot save and there is no price that so loved would not pay I'm not saying this world does not have love we have enough love to fall into it but not enough love to stay in it we have enough love to conceive a child but not enough love to birth that child we have enough love to close our children's bodies and to feed our children's bellies and to teach our children frames but not enough love to save our children's souls we have enough love to purchase a Mother's Day card but not enough love to honor our father and mother we have enough love to send our boys and girls to foreign lands and uniforms to fight and die but do we have enough love to send them to foreign lands with a Bible to preach and win and bad times we have enough love to surrender to preach but not enough love to love the Brethren we have enough love to carry the Bible but not enough love to obey the Bible we have enough love to fill out a decision slit but not enough love to keep that decision all the way till death takes us to glory yes this world does know a certain kind of love but it is not the love that is changing this world we have enough love to say I love you but not enough love to prove it this world is so desperate for so love kind of love what is that kind of love number one so love kind of love is a matter of questions such as is there any place I would not go where would your love not take you any place in this world if God said I need you to go there and help churches get started I need you to go there and help build those build I need you to do this and go that I need you to the concert of Africa that India or China I need you to South America what place in this world do you say my love doesn't go there are yous tired of lip service as I am I use weary with thee the courtesy oh sure you know you know do anything for God really can you see you on Wednesday night the Bible study can't get you to contribute of faith promise giving is there any place you would not go do you have a love for God do I have a love for God that is demonstrated by my willingness to go anywhere everyone here must answer that every pastor every staff member every child every adult every deacon if it's happening every middle-aged every senior st. do I have enough love that would compel me to go anywhere and there's a second question so loved begs questions in the second question is is there anyone I would not tell I'm sure I tell anybody the gospel really really is that why we have the racial jokes you really think your skin color is better than somebody else's do you think your white skin gives you a white heart do you think your hispanic skin gives you better shading little darker go closer to the arab like jesus you know the arab world jesus christ was middle eastern you know you do realize that jesus christ was not a United States citizen you do understand that Jesus Christ didn't get reared in the Midwest that the center of the Bible is not Washington or Hammond that we read a Middle Eastern book we love a Middle Eastern person that our Savior you know the research tell us that they have put all the power their computers and all the anthropological studies and all of the archaeological studies and they have taken a composite picture of what the world was like in the first century and they said if you were to take they have bodies they've exude from from graves that have been dug up for excavation of different science and they have taken skeletal measurements they have taken all of the different measurements and sizes and shapes and color Asians they put a composite of what Jesus Christ might have looked like five foot two inches tall because that's the average height of a man in the first century put him about 135 pounds Where's George ramps he's probably feeling pretty happy right now you understand that that his skin color was a whole lot more like the people you don't really appreciate you know and that color moves into the neighborhood kind of get you nervous like I bet they're gonna put a mask a little mini mosque in their backyard they'll be barbecuing Christians before long let me ask you a question Matt Matt Matt just kind of play with your mind a little bit it never occurred to you that when you go to heaven that that God might not look like what you think mask your question what would you do if it was your turn to have an audience with the creator of the world and your time came and you were ushered in to that magnificent Palace where Jesus Christ Himself rules on the throne of glory and when you walked up to Jesus Christ he had the face of your worst enemy the person you can't stand you do understand that Jesus died for that person also do you understand that the soul of that person that you despise with all of your heart is as precious in Calvary sight as yours you understand that don't you see so love says I want to ask you a question is there any place you would not go do you know how many people are in the will of God right now because it's some place they've said poor I've never go there isn't amazing with the will of God says oh yes you will I've started a new form of praying god I'd never go to Hawaii I don't care what you do I am NOT going to the Caribbean I will not be a pastor of a small country church in the mountains of Montana I won't do that I don't want mountains and ocean I don't want 72 degrees and balmy sky I don't want blue sky and sunshine I don't know what it is I live in Hammond yeah I'm so happy because brother Hiles used to say I used to hate Hammond but I've asked God in the Millennium to let me have it thank you you can have it the house house I took a bunch of my men who had won a big contest and demonstrated a lot of hard work during their fall program last October November I took them snowmobiling of skiing in Montana just about two months ago yes siree man by the sheriff and but we had just a great the weather was gorgeous and we had snowmobiling all day long and skiing and the most phenomenal ski resort so we just had a lot of fun for about four days and I was look at the beauty we're getting ready to take off and wait for the plane to load and I had my back up against the window of the airport when the fellows would turn around with the scalp and just that landscape of the Rocky Mountains just jagged I said you know what what if I get to heaven and God said Jack you like you so much why didn't you go there can you imagine if God said that's fine with me wherever you want to go but isn't amazing how we don't want to go some places yeah you don't want to go there do they want to go to that place do you and so love love says there's no place I would not go there's no person I would not tell there's a third question though that you have to ask yourself about so loved and that is is there anything I would not give what do you have on you right now that you would not part with is it something you wear in your wrist heirlooms you wear on your sleeves is it gifts of merchandise you picked up so valuable you carry as trinkets in your pocket is it the shoes the suit the fabric the label what is it that you say I couldn't give that up I've got to wear a certain cloth and they don't make that where I am supposed to go is it a style of house a style of car is it the set of wheels you call your vehicle what is it that you would not pay or give up or sacrifice for the world when you see Jesus Christ I want you to explain real care what it is you could not pay extends his hands with the scars or rather the wound still in the hands not scars because that's a wound that is healed the Bible says we'll see his wounds I want to have that soul loved kind of love let me get into the message here and I'll be fairly brief but I want you to listen very carefully for the next several minutes 1980 years ago the Great Commission was given I have just two questions I want to ask tonight number one do you understand what our mission is what about what part of the Great Commission do we not understand as independent Baptists well what part of the go--he therefore what part of thee go into all the world what part of thee ye shall receive power after the Holy Ghost will come upon you and you should be witness to what part of those admonitions and commands do we not understand do you know preacher which your mission is tonight 3b confuse in your mind that the mission of the Independent Baptist who believes the Bible is the Word of God if they get the gospel to everybody the whole world what part of that do you not understand exactly I'll give you a question that mr. Rossler asked me in my office he sat down in my office and before he got into the chair he began to get settled he stood up he said Jack I want to ask you a question he said that I come here today with you men with my one man here there we come here to talk about this or we come here to do something about it now a suppression delegate oppressors to 2010 did you come in Monday to talk about what we ought to do or are you wrapped up and wound up to go do something about it are we here just to talk and mode and so what did you see that video it wasn't that great music but a special is particularly good or I like that honor they came I'm just going to talk about what we've done we're gonna do something to talk about later if you've been here at all this week you understand that my passion runs pretty deep in this one of our graduates said to him my staff members he's I've known brother Scott for 20 years he said I thought I knew him pretty well but he says I get it now I get it he says I get it he says your boss wants to win the world to Christ yeah you got it you got it you see I'm just stupid enough and I'm just dumb enough and I just believe it enough that I understand this book says we ought to get the world saved and I don't know what part of that we don't understand that in 1886 a company was founded it took sweetened water they added caramel color a few other ingredients they had to change in later days 124 years ago two years before one year before this church was started a company was founded called coca-cola somebody at coca-cola headquarters decided they wanted coca-cola in this country and so in 1935 just about 50 years after it was founded coca-cola was the American icon that's what the brand was the American icon was their marketing slogan seven years later in 1942 it was called the global high sign and it was already in 44 countries now I don't understand if you get this urn I don't I don't know if you're gonna grab this salt right here but it bothers me that somebody down there in Atlanta Georgia held idea that he wanted Sweetwater with cannibal killer and little artificial flavoring and a little fuzz in it and a little C Israel and he wanted that to go to every nook and corner of the world can you imagine that sitting in a meeting what was that it was at a board meeting what was the meeting was the meeting just of the corporate staff it was it was at 6 8 16 20 minute in a meeting was the meeting brother Ross are like we had affairs in my office or 17 of us were gathered together and somebody must have said I got an idea I think everybody in the world ought to drink coca-cola coca-cola coca-cola sells 36 billion cans or bottles of coca-cola this continent that's just one continent Coca Cola's everywhere I I went to Africa the first time and dr. Doug kala the man we honored posthumously tonight he was setting up the the trip and whether Darryl Moore went and for the Bob Marshall here went and and a few others who went and it's big event but we're gonna go to Africa yeah I said brother keV I've never been to Africa before I said this is this is awesome and I said now look we got a lot of people going brother Doug I said let's see all the work we're doing see the church we built let's see all this all the Congress and such but I said can you make sure we go to a village that has never heard the gospel is anything like that he says there's thousands of villages like that but it's calm he says we can get you one he's out be sure it's a place where the white man has never gone and the gospel has never been given and so he went to a village called add waffle and we got in the bus and drove for about an hour and a half and when we got as far as the CUDA got off the bus and walked the rest the way in you can see some the pictures right here that's the village of ad waffle just keep scrolling through and we got in that village and and as you see in just a minute keep scrolling through them beautiful place you notice stop right there just can you freeze it right there they have a custom there when we got there it was a brutally hot day I mean just brutally hot and and we our delegation got there after Boston and and to greet us we came over the rise and walked into the village there were 450 people sitting under the shade trees a village of about 600 people and all the Chiefs were there they had I think 15 layers of Chiefs in that little village and and you might see a little bit more than some of the Chiefs house and such but but right there there's a little formal approach you have to go through a ritual and brother Caleb said we have to bring them gifts and we have to go through a ritual receiving all of the conchos head honchos of the village and i saw that's great i said let's bring them bibles ah yeah obviously it's a good idea so we we brought curtains and cases and curtains and cases of bibles you can see I'm passing out Bibles right there to them and they're happy about I'm passing our Bibles right there both they're happy I'm happy oh it's a great thing to keep the thing going but stop right there stop right there we got all done passing out the Bibles then it was our turn to sit down and let them come to us and they were going to give us gifts guess what they gave the Americans who had never been there before had never heard the gospel they he gave us cases of coca-cola that's exactly the expanse I always get but it's not the response that Doug Caleb and I had and Darrell or when I saw that tears roll down my face I looked at Doug Kayla and he shook his head like this I move through the crowd and I walked over we had a few minutes free I said what in the world is Atlanta Georgia we don't have I should go find the man that has a Tanner business I'll hire him where is the brain here mr. Baptist preacher that wants to get the gospel to the world like coca-cola once again some sugared water that means nothing let them sink in please would you please for the sake of Jesus Christ figure out right now what you're going to say when Jesus says and let me get this straight let me get this straight judgment seat of Christ I just want to all you wonderful fine American Baptists who went there you know god bless you to pass the school that night may I understand this a minute you mean some sorry money-grabbing rassle in Atlanta Georgia had a bigger burden to get flavored sugar-water to the world then you had to get the message of my blood and you want to break your arm patting yourself on the back because I'm having a hard day but I'm gonna hang in there brother coca-cola doesn't have inspirational meetings for discouraged bottle beverage distributors their inspiration is I pay you to do the job or I fire you go to church and get inspired but we're going to get the sugared flavored colored artificial nonsense to the world because we want this and you talk about a distribution center there are kids on bicycles peddling that stuff their little boats I got a picture I think Karen sent me a picture of a boy rowing a long boat filled with Pepsi cases I love John 3:16 not as much as coca-cola loves coca-cola don't you tell me that you love Jesus Christ as much as you say you do until you have the fervency and at the passion and have the gumption and that's the passion the love and the drive and then something inside you that says I will give back to the world don't tell me that coca-cola has a better product then the Lord Jesus Christ don't tell me that coke is the real thing because I've tasted the real thing go taste and see the Lord is good blessed is the man that trusteth in him all of our singing all of our preaching all of our conferences just a little more you can make us right hang in there brother hang in there here's a noose go ahead and hang the risk out there not very crazy man yes I am I care for somebody who hung in a cross and I care that that message gets to the world and I'm really sorry that you got a sad heart I'm really sorry you gotta stop toenail and I'm really sorry and she broke your foot and I'm really sorry that you don't feel well I'm really sorry and I will love you but right now tonight can you please please do something for somebody who's ever heard the gospel you'll have a new footman millennium he'll have a hot he'll stop dancing all over the streets of glory let's get the gospel out there but listen to me listen to me carefully I want the music right I want I want the standards right now but but while I'm getting all the right stuff I want to make sure that they get the right person fellas I didn't believe this is true I'd put that Bible down and walk out there and go get it on his job well the house first talk to me about passing this church when I was 26 years old for 26 to 43 seventeen years I thought of from every angle from every direction to talk myself out of it every other day never tried to talk myself into it well the compelling reasons I considered when the pulpit committee and I knew I had suspicions they called me but when they called me I was now surprised and my wife said it's Colonel Cormac on the phone I said expected that when he said they've unanimously chosen to recommend me as a pastor and would I agree to that recommendation and what I consent to their the unanimous decision and I said yes I told him the next morning I said I'll call you Anne I told me yes the compelling thought was this there's a church I believe that has a potential influence has enough pastors coming to pastors school if somehow I had a voice strong enough the passion strong enough the fervency if somehow I could find the right words to slap them across the spirit and say would you for the love of Jesus Christ prove to me that what we preach in the gospel is more valuable than what coca-cola thinks they peddle coca-cola you got to be kidding 19:52 in 1955 on April 15 1955 a 52 year old band he had purchased a the rights to market hamburgers made by brothers called McDonald the McDonald brothers made a pretty decent hamburger and Ray Kroc looked at their operation and said you fellas make good hamburgers but you don't know anything about franchising I can take your products and Ray Kroc said I'll make sure everybody in the world eats a McDonald's hamburger because I think everybody the world deserves that did you know that today while you sat in pastor school McDonald's all 31,000 franchises of McDonald's sold 47 million customers and they'll do the same thing tomorrow you telling me that that a that a a white bleached flour bum that isn't very good for you right right and a piece of meat that you probably shouldn't need because if you saw how it was taking care of in process and go through you would never eat it and french fries that make you feel like they died went to heaven are gonna guarantee that to get there sooner yeah that's more important hey give me a give me a fundamental Ray Kroc please you give me a fundamental Ray Kroc a dinner I need somebody from coca-cola who says you know what I think that man's right I think the gospel he preaches is more important than the coca-cola I serve I think I'm going to take my talents and go to that place in heaven and I'm going to help him get that gospel to the world anybody else see that besides me does anybody else sit there and say you got to be kidding you got to be kidding you mean coca-cola can go making fine a village where a white man never preached the gospel and the king sitting there drinking coca-cola I won that man to Christ he was 92 years old sat there for 45 minutes talked to him and that's the King you need to trust Christ he says tell me who Jesus is he were sipping coca-cola what he's asking me tell me who Jesus Christ is we sat in the English corner in China we sat in the English corner at a State University and we sit down Coca Cola's we saved our colas we sit there Pepsi's and looked at people I said have you ever talked about God in at home and a couple of teach others said we have never heard the name of Jesus Christ ever we have never gone to a church we don't know what it is we don't know what it means to go to heaven or hell we've never heard of those things and we sipped our colas and every sip drove conviction down my spirit and I thought why the name of Almighty God is this what I hold in my hand and poured on my throat more important to somebody in America than the gospel is to those of us who preach it 47 million customers of McDonald's today coca-cola's around the world do you do you think maybe we could do something to fix that I was just kind of curious is there a preacher here that was they really scalpel I'm gonna I'm gonna stop playing this thing I'm gonna help start churches I'm gonna start get that gospel out III have some dreams tonight I dream of a hundred pastors standing up and saying but the grace of Almighty God our church is gonna birth the church if Earl just have concert' a hundred twenty two churches either I go ask him how to do it or I'll talk to Mike much don't ask him how he did his I'll go to Bruce gotta ask him how he built his cert here I'll go to Randy to ask him how he started here I'll find one of the dozens of guys a pastor she will start a church I don't know how but I'm our church is gonna birth a church in 2010 I was any pastors like that it could do that like it's not thank you thank you I got one I got two yeah three to four hit five at six seven eight Spanish it's good it's good it's good our church is gonna do it I'm standing our church is gonna do it I wonder if we can start as many churches next year as brother Jessup has started so we can say brother Jes if you inspired us to do in one year pastor school your life again your life being here has challenged us to double your life right there somebody count from me when you fellas count from you Ohana we've got 35:35 pastors you get the balcony the churches start churches and take some men of God who say I think our church needs to birth another church I heard brother Jeff sit the first time and he said you know I start a church and he says we try to get that church to birth another Church within within a year - sometimes sooner Joyce Rossler says you start a church and in five years you got a birth in three years you got to birth five of them how many churches has your church birth - sir what are you waiting for and we got some four doors why are you counting George you can't count fifty-four so far we're almost halfway there we dummy a little over halfway there I was there's any other pastors who say you know brother Scott you're right I I think I think I think I could help get a church started I can't believe that that nearly four hundred pastors here in fifty four of you got the gumption okay that's all we're gonna do then I want there's any man here who says okay I'm not a preacher but if these guys aren't gonna do it then I'm gonna go do it I don't need to call it I just got a push from the spirit I'm gonna go preach I'm gonna go start a church I'm gonna get out I'm gonna go build me a church with or without your help because I debts are not in the same for the judgement seat of Christ and have him tell me you mean you knew that I shed my blood for the world and you didn't tell anybody about it how many men here standing or not yet standing to say brother Scott I will go be a preacher if I'll to help somebody start a church or I'll start the church or whatever God wants but tonight I'm gonna spend my life getting out the gospel if you're not a god called man before but you're deciding that right now would you come stand down here be fine yeah that's right you've men who are standing and saying I'm going to get the gospel I'm not a called called preacher but I I tonight I'm surrendering whether it's a call of God or the push of God or the shove of God or whatever it is if God wants somebody to start a church I will do it would you come right here that's right once I come up in the south Phyllis it's just how and all the folk to see this except up a size you can come out up on the step size again is there any place she wouldn't go anyone you wouldn't tell any price you wouldn't pay if I stand before the judgment seat of Christ I don't want to say well there was just some people I didn't want to tell some places in the world that kind of scared me and some things there was just too important treasures for me to let them go can we can we launch something tonight it's more than just a decision can we launch hundreds of new churches can we sit here hear the testimony of a car salesman and a real estate man who said I just got an idea and and since nobody was doing I retired and I thought I'd start 3,500 of them any non God called men who just loved Jesus and say you know what I'm in 60s you know I'm pushing 70 and good grief you get started 3,500 I'll find out how he's doing and I think I could start a heap of him oh there's any Boys rosters out there businessmen who say you know what I do have a business mind and I'm not gonna get to heaven just accomplishing a lot of money I'm gonna use that money I'm gonna build churches my pastors we got now with Keith for the gorge countless pastors again countless men standing this week I have wanted so much to just transfer a passion to you this is where First Baptist Church of Hammond Indiana lives seven days a week this is where the guys that come in my office and walk out of my office say wow we are we are we're a hold of something and it's not just about what number we had in Sunday school it's about how many souls we can get out of hell make sure you include the balcony was it any more men that are called to preach is any young men nor any middle-aged men any senior age men any men here tonight who say you know what this really is important I don't know how or all the details and such but count me and I want to be one of those numbers up that I'm going to go into the ministry I will be a preacher of the gospel that's right we'll take you come on that's right just come on down that's great come on down that's good that's right come on down if I play some real emotional music with the key change in it wouldn't make a difference I have a powerful singer come out and they make your heart throb look because the chords fit just right in your ear well that would that make the difference or maybe you could look at this and say you know what there was no music nothing just the preacher laid it out and I thought you know what your God in heaven I do love you more than coca-cola oh god I do love the world more than PepsiCo god I love you more than a McDonald's and God I'm not gonna stand before you and have those people used it's a shame he because I couldn't even take the gospel to America good let's build anything we're waiting for you come on down that's right it's a few minutes we're going home I mean doesn't matter which the same time has been yet the nice we're gonna get you out of here in just couple minutes yeah you know I'm so afraid we're gonna we're gonna be so worried about making sure we either put our brother in place make sure we let all the little group of friends we have know where I am positionally or where so-and-so has changes music just a little bit oh my my my my my I wonder what music they played in the first church in Jerusalem I do you want with the hairstyle for life there we're not changing standards here I've strengthened every one of them folks if anything we get stricter here I'm just I'm just so afraid that we have reduced Christianity down to I don't do this and I do this I don't do this and I do this I don't do this and she I've arrived and I did go during our hour and a half time of soul-winning I passed out three point seven tracks I'm asking tonight you take your Christianity to a whole different level keep her standards keep the right music they'll all fine and dandy but if you think your Christianity can be defined in a list of things you don't do you've got the wrong Bible you got the wrong Christ you got the wrong Christianity and you need to figure out what the gospel can do to save your sorry soul that's all as old-fashioned judaism as old-fashioned asceticism there's old-fashioned Gnosticism you know something nobody else does you have more discipline that somebody else has you arrived at a point that nobody else can arrive at you have become something that you never thought you could become and God isn't gonna measure you by any debt he's gonna what works did you do for me what works did you do for me what works did you do for me and it's not work cutting your hair and it's not work wearing the right linked skirt it's not work playing the right fiddle and it's not work doing the right right there it is what to get the gospel to the world it's the greatest work in all the world and Jesus said it greater wants and these how you do he didn't say greater standards so you have he's a greater music so you apply it were civilians are he's a greater lunch ready looks rather watch how you do yes that's what I want to do the greater works oh and do greater works okay where I do it I don't care how you do it just get it done what's please sir will train you sir will teach thee sure we'll give it the best shot but we'll never perfect you that's God's business broader yes this was needed anymore pastors who say you know what bro scalp if you would help me if you just show me how to do it I will start a church from our church this year how about if you could say I'll be willing to help another couple pastors or something and how I'll help out some resources some money but count me and I want to be included in helping start a church I can't do it myself because I don't know how but maybe three or four of us could go together and maybe maybe you could send me one of you guys and he could point us the right direction and we'll do it together hey could you do that just got a whole bunch of more sands right there look I'm just I'm just trying to keep this country alive folks trying to keep this world I'm trying to keep God thinking that at least we're halfway serious about his business George and Jack count the crowd again make sure I get in 122 you inspired me can you Ross can you count these guys appear standing Keith can you count these men up here standing you might want to go down there's two there you go well there burns in my heart just III read those stats and statistics and facts and I just thank God what got in a coca-cola executive where he said we're gonna own the world what what a cheap tawdry product wasn't like he was giving away gold chains or like either selling Seiko watches I was like you said we're gonna market pearls of great price now let's take some water out of the tap and put some fizz in it and put some junk in it and sell it call it coca-cola cute little jingle and you go online and you look where coca-cola is it was in that village where you got to walk a path straight up the mountain this wide could hardly get through and I went to the chief the head Chiefs house and I've shown the pictures to my staff a little while ago and they said you got to be kidding six people live in that yeah six people live in a place about a the size of your bathroom and coca-cola said they drink it and they'll pay for it and we will profit and we will be big shots and we'll drive nice cars and live in beautiful houses and exclusive gated communities and we'll fly in corporate private jets and we will to travel the world well own curving house cottages and candles and we'll have beach hose and mountain homes right because six billion people can drink our product and we get together in a conference like this and we say hard hard yeah it's good that's somebody standing okay just trying to not create a very emotional atmosphere no no music I'm just we okay with this you're right still want to do it that's total both sides Keith all right I didn't get 122 I got four hundred forty-three remain standing and I got a hundred and fifty five fellows who said I'll start our help our do it myself one hundred fifty five men who said count me in now you know what I don't know what that means for you except this it's gonna cost you everything it's gonna take everything is it gonna hurt more than you ever thought it'd hurt and it'll make you the happiest person in the world you'll wonder ten thousand times in one week why don't ever do that you ask yourself a hundred thousand times what was I thinking and your wife will say you weren't and the little devil on this side would say you stupid you gave up what and the Holy Spirit Rudy hang on the root the Holy Spirit inside will say coca-cola didn't think it was too much of a trouble somebody thought it wasn't too hard for Pepsi Cola to say well Coca Cola can do it we can do it and if Ray Kroc can 52 years of age my age at 52 years of age my age Ray Kroc said I want to take McDonald's worldwide and Ray Kroc did it I just can't believe somebody my age felt that a hamburger had to get in everybody's home and that he did it is anybody here who hasn't eaten the McDonald's not one hand up we've all eaten them because a 52 year old guy my age said y'all gonna eat McDonald's oh yes you are and you're gonna like it mm-hmm how many have eaten at least a hundred McDonald's how many kind of live it McDonald's how many know somebody that looks like they live at McDonald's judgement seat of Christ I'd love to you know I hope that coca-cola executives are all born-again Christians I really do and with all the McDonald's franchise owners and hope they're all saved but I wish I could I can't work these things out like this but I wish I could stand next to the guy who made sure coca-cola went to the world I'd like to stand next to him and I'd like to I'd like to hear the Lord ask him why did you think coca-cola had to get everybody's house what what drove you that you wanted coca-cola and everybody's house in the world only who what he says because something side me says I've got a more constraining reason for the gospel the love of Christ constrains me that coca-cola executive says then how come I got coca-cola to the world and you couldn't even reach your town Bob I think we have a card for the men standing
