driven deep in their hearts by the quality of their knowledge we had a tournament this this uh week at the marriott which is our final tournament of the year and we're going to quickly announce the results of those tournaments if you can to help us speed through this please hold your applause until we're finished with the entire division but we're going to start and we're going to have pictures

say that's me they're about to have me come up there because the only difference that separates these quizzers from you is the amount of dedication that they have given to the word of god we're going to have let's start with with noah oswald he's our beginner quizzer and he is eight years old from liberty lake washington he already loves to worship god his favorite subject in school is math some of his hobbies include playing the piano exploring in the woods fishing with his dad when he grows up he wants to be get this president of the united states he's shooting for the stars [Applause] and noah who knows all in due time and with the perfect will of god who knows what can happen now noah is going to quote for us today and they're going to have it on the screen and we have screens up here with the verses so i don't think that's fair because he could just read it so we've actually decided to up the ante on this a little bit and we're going to blindfold noah so he can't see anything so if we can take care of that real quick know where you think you're ready buddy all right we're going to put that blindfold on and then brother michael king from our south central region is going to pick some verses for him to quote can you see anything there noah nope all right make sure you quote writing that mic brother king are we ready all right noah can you quote for us mark chapter 3 verses 1 through 5 the story of the man with the withered hand and he entered again into the synagogue and there was a man there which had a withered hand and they watched him whether he would heal him on the sabbath day that they might accuse him and he saith unto the man which hath the withered hand stand forth and he says unto them is it lawful to do good in the sabbath days or to do evil to save life or to kill but they held their peace and when he had looked around about on them with anger being grieved for the hardness of their hearts he saith unto the man stretch forth thine hand and he stretched it out and his hand was restored as the other everybody get it up for noah great job now i wasn't following along with it because they actually turn these screens off we don't have the text up here so even if he wasn't blindfolded he wouldn't know on the screen but did he miss a word i don't think he did everybody know a great job great job and coming up behind him we have a junior bible quizzer and her name is hannah hartley hannah is 11 years old she's from north idaho and she loves jesus bible quizzing is a close second she quizzes with liberty lake washington and you will find her climbing trees reading books helping her mom cook doing homeschool or hanging out with her brothers and hannah are are you ready to quote in front of 5000 plus people yes and a very quiet voice all right hannah brother the king is going to pick some verses for you and go ahead hannah can you quote for us mark chapter four verses one through nine and then mark chapter four verses 35 through 41. and he began again to teach by the seaside and there was gathered unto him a great multitude so that he entered into his ship and sat in the sea and the whole military was by the sea on the land and he taught them many things by parables and said unto them in his doctrine hearken behold there were not a sovereign sow and it came to pass as they sold some fell by the wayside and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up and some felons turning ground where it had not much earth and immediately a spring up because i had no depth of birth but when the sun was up it was scorched because it had a root it withered away and some fell among thorns and the thorns grew up and choked it and yielded no fruit and other fell on the ground and to yield fruit to spring up and increased and brought forth some 30 and some 60 and some 100 and he said unto them he that heather's here let him hear and the same day when the evils come he saith unto them let us pass over onto the other side and when they sent away the multitude they took him even as he was in the ship and there were also with them other little ships and there arose a great storm of wind and the waves beat into the ship so that it was now full and he was in the higher part of the ship asleep and she could keep quoting and quoting and quoting and quoting and quoting until everybody here was on their feet because these young people know their verses and they can quote them all perfectly now hannah are there any other verses that you knew in our in our study that you could have kept quoting yes just a few more how many did you learn this year 283 and how many years have you been in quizzing this is my second second year everybody let's give it up for hannah great job and right now we're actually going to be having a former bible quizzer someone that is not in the bible quiz program anymore due to age pastors a great church in rialto california and he's the current youth committee chairman and he preached an incredible message this morning let's give it up for brother joel booker [Applause] thank you so very much how many appreciate our bible quizzing director brother philip booker i'd like to speak very quickly on behalf of uh bible quizzing as a pastor and a parent and i have uh four kids that were involved in quizzing this year and then of course our church had several quizzes that began the year i think there was 50 that started 30 that finished and i'd like to speak to every parent every individual every young person but also if you don't mind to the pastors that are here tonight and just kind of give you a quick testimony of what bible quizzing has meant to our church and first of all when i from time to time people ask me to sign bibles and when young men come to me invariably i will write the verse that brother philip booker mentioned a minute ago psalm 119 verse number 9 that says wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way by taking heed thereto according to thy word and i can't tell you as a pastor what it means to have young people that are committing these words into their heart number one it's keeping them from sin it's protecting them but also there is a just a daily washing with the water of the word and i i believe in bible quizzing it's affected my family my mom was involved in bible quizzing she was actually just a kind of a sunday school kid that came to church people would pick her up this is kind of in the pre-bus era when people would pick them up in their cars but what really really dialed her in really plugged her in to living for god is she got involved in bible quizzing it's affected my mom it's affected my family i quiz my brother's quiz all of my my kids our nieces and my nieces and nephews many of them are quizzing and we we believe in this program it is it has been something that's kept our kids but also think about this having an army of your young people that are full of the word full of memorized scripture when they do join the bus program when they do join hope corps and i pray that that's the next step when they do involve themselves in a bible study teaching they are already full of the word of god i'm here to tell you there's power in the word encourage you be involved get your church involved they will help you they'll send somebody to show you how to get a quiz program started but as a pastor and a parent i believe in bible quizzing from the top of my head to the soul of my feet anybody thankful for your bible tonight clap your hands and thank god for his word thank you brother booker and as every young person that's been involved in quizzing can attest this is a foundational program that you will rely on for the rest of your life if you're involved in ministry of any kind i don't care if you're a sunday school teacher bible study teacher if you're involved in the ministry god is going to use these verses to to be a witness to your to your generation and right now we have an intermediate quizzer her name is mallory blagg if she could come up mallory is from pasadena texas she is 12 years old she's in the seventh grade she attends a public school and is on the broadcast team she's on the student council and on the school choir she also participates in her church youth choir her favorite activities are bible quizzing practicing the keyboard and singing and she's a little shy so sam man just be ready to turn up that mic if we need it a little bit uh brother king do you have a selection for mallory to quote yes sister mallory can you quote for us mark chapter 5 verses 24 through 34 the story of the woman with the issue of blood and jesus went with him and much people followed him and thronged him and a certain woman which had an issue of flood 12 years and had suffered many things of many physicians it has been all that she had it was nothing bettered but rather grew worse when she had heard of jesus came in the press behind and touched his garment for she said if i may touch but his clothes i shall be whole and straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague and jesus immediately knowing in himself that virtue had gone out of him turned him about in the press and said who touched my clothes and his disciples said unto him thou seest the multitude thronging thee and says thou who touched me and he looked round about to see her that had done this thing but the woman fearing and trembling knowing what was done in her came and fell down before him and told him all the truth and he said unto her daughter thy faith hath made thee whole go in peace and behold of thy plague everybody give it up for malory great job and yes i was kidding about her being shot so mallory how many years have you been involved in bible quizzing seven years seven years how many verses do you think in total would it be safe to say you've learned thousands of verses over those years and you probably use those to share those with your friends everybody let's give it up for mallory again great job great job now i wasn't following all those but i don't think any of these quizzers have missed a single word yet so talk about intimidating preaching in front of this group is terrifying if you are a minister and you just misread your text you will hear about it you might hear contest from the audience as they catch you but our next one is a uh experience quizzer his name is ethan schumanski brother ethan so some of you are thinking well that's great but i don't have time to quiz i got a lot of things going on in my life well i understand that there is a lot going on there are career choices to make there is school but this young man kind of uh takes all those excuses away because he's just a little bit busy let me tell you a little bit about ethan he's 18 years old from woodlands texas he's been quizzing for 13 years started at the age of four before he could even read his parents taught him audibly while he was still a quizzer he not only graduated high school he also graduated with his bachelor's of science degree in business administration he is accepted into law school at 16 years of age he's had success in law school while being a quizzer he was at the top of his class he's been on the dean's list every semester presidential fellow a langdale scholar a recipient recipient of multiple scholarships a member of his law school's law review been privileged to work with presidentially appointed judges on the federal bench with a renowned constitutional law professor at his law school meanwhile he's involved in bible quizzing he's also involved in his local church as a sunday school teacher as a musician and he leads service at his local church so if you're going to tell me you can't quiz because you can't find time you're actually right you can't quiz if you can't find the time because sometimes you have to make the time and ethan has carved this out in fact he said out of his entire quizzing career from the time four till now he only missed one year of quizzing ever and it was the worst year of his life he hated missing that year and now he is 18 this is his last year quizzing but part of the studying process we can i think we actually put the blindfold on a little too soon because we're going to do something a little different normally we'd have him quote but there's something called chartwork which is where we uh learn where the words are found in the bible it's one thing to be able to quote the verses but if they don't they know where nearly every word in those verses are found and you may be thinking well that's that's a waste of time how's that going to help you later well the point is that you memorize these verses and know them so well that you will never forget them i don't care how many years have passed ethan is still going to have these verses in his heart so uh i actually have a page of chartwork and i have asked the chairman of the youth committee if you could just help us did i tell you which ones to pick there's there's probably i don't know 50 options on there so you can pick any one all right his name is ethan and so what we're going to do is just call out a word or a phrase and you tell us where it's found in our verses of study okay here we go thy sins be forgiven thee mark chapter 2 verses 5 and verse 9. two fishes mark chapter 6 verses 38 and verse 41 twice that is correct 12 years mark chapter 5 verses 25 and verse 42. that is correct young man mark chapter 14 verse 51 and mark chapter 16 verse 5. go further down the page those are the harder ones let's make it harder okay oh my word uh unclean spirits unclean spirits mark chapter 1 verse 27 mark chapter 3 verse 11 mark chapter 5 verse 13 and mark chapter 6 verse 7. and that is extremely correct let's do a couple more let's do one of the ones at the very bottom the hard ones the real hard ones jesus of nazareth mark chapter 1 verse 24 mark shooter 10 verse 47 mark chapter [Music] 14 verse 67 and mark chapter 16 verse 6. that is correct let's give him a hand great job ethan ethan did you know which ones we were going to ask when you came up here i had no idea he had no idea so he's on the spot in front of 5 000 people so we're actually going to have you quote real quick but we are going to blindfold just so there's no question about whether this is organic or not so we're going to have you quote a long passage uh we'll just have you start i think his eyes are showing a little bit there but we're gonna start it let's just start at mark chapter one what do you think uh where the kings that work for you mark one and do you have that on the projectors okay let's start at mark chapter one verse one and just work your way down march 1 verse 1 the beginning of the gospel of jesus christ the son of god as it is written in the prophets behold i send my messenger before thy face which shall prepare that way before thee the voice of one crying in the wilderness prepare you the way of the lord make his path straight john did baptize in the wilderness and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins and there went out unto him all the land of judea and they have jerusalem and were all baptized of him in the river of jordan confessing their sins and john was clothed with camels heroin where they go to levee skin about his loins and he did eat locusts and wild honey and preached saying that come with one mighty the night and i know that ethan it's getting kind of late can we speed it up just a little bit yeah just sure every single one of those last videos you guys cannot lose after great job and great job to all of these quizzers but not just these four to every quizzer that has participated this year at the national tournament and throughout the year thank you so much for all of your hard work but but ethan we're not quite done you've been in quizzing 13 years right yes sir so you've learned a lot of verses in fact you could probably witness to your friends if they maybe they had some confusion about how many gods there are yes sir so if someone were to ask you i'm confused how many gods are there what would you tell them ethan i tell them john 1 1 in the beginning was the word of the word was with god and the word was god john 1 14 and the word was made flesh and dwelt among us and we beheld his glory the glorious of the only begotten of the father full of grace and truth deuteronomy 6 and 4 hero is the lord our god is one lord ephesians 4 5 one lord one faith one baptism ephesians 4 6 one god and father of all who is above all and through all and in you all first peter first timothy excuse me in chapter two verse five for there's one god and one mediator between god and man the man christ jesus deuteronomy 4 35 under thee which showed that thou minus know that the lord he is god there is none else beside him isaiah chapter 44 verse 6 thus saith the lord the king of israel and his redeemer the lord of hosts i am the first and i am the last there is no god beside me i think he could tell his friends how to find the one god named jesus how about repentance if someone's confused about the plan of salvation why would you tell them if they didn't understand repentance i tell them luke 13 verse 3 i tell you nay but except your pain you shall likewise perish luke chapter 24 and verse 47 and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations beginning at jerusalem acts 3 19 repent you therefore and be converted that your sins may be blotted out when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the lord incredible how about baptism in jesus name john 3 5 jesus answered verily barely i stand to the except a man be born of water and of the spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of god zechariah chapter 14 verse 9 and the lord shall be king over all the earth in that day shall there be one lord in his name one acts 4 verse 12 neither is salvation in any other but there is none other name under heaven given to my man whereby we must be saved what about the essentiality of receiving the gifts of the holy ghost acts chapter 2 verse 1 when the day of pentecost was fully come they were all with one accord in one place and suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind and it filled all the house where they were sitting and they appeared to them cloven tongues like as a fire and it sat upon each of them and they were all with the holy ghost and began to speak with other tongues as the spirit gave them utterance ezekiel chapter 36 verse 26 a new heart also will i give you in a new spirit while i put within you and i will take away the stony heart out of your flesh and i will give you a heart of and i will give you a heart of flesh ezekiel 36 27 a noose and i will put my spirit within you and cause you to walk on my statutes and you shall keep my judgments and do them how about the name of jesus the name of jesus zechariah nine in the worship kingdom for all the earth in the nation to be one lord in his name one acts four is twelve again neither is the salvation in any other there's none another name after having given amen given among men whereby we must be saved i don't think ethan's gonna have any problem being a witness to his friends he's been in quizzing 13 years he's given a big hand great job brother ethan great job malory hannah and noah so you may be wondering what separates these young people from their peers i can tell you there is nothing that separates them but the power of the word of god and them applying themselves to it putting the dedication in to making this a part of your life so if you want to know more about this program if you're a young person and you saw something that i want that there you can put your information up here and we will contact your church we'll make sure it's okay with your pastor first of course pastors if you're here and you want this program in your church maybe you don't know about it we are willing to send out someone to your church and they will explain how it all works we'll get you rolling to no cost to

i read i read this afternoon you may be seated i read that that tickets tickets right now tonight right now tickets cost between 300 and 1100 dollars i just leaned over a few moments ago and showed brother booker ticket to watch volleyball game one thousand one hundred dollars worshiping the creature worshiping a little inflated ball playing in the sand jumping at the nets but in this house in this house the redeemed or worshiping the redeemer the found are worshipping though he who found them the same are worshipping their savior it don't matter how high we hop it don't matter how fast we run what matters is we have been baptized in the name of jesus christ for the remission of our sin and we've been filled with the power of the holy ghost hey we won [Music] this past year may be seated this past year has been a year of urgency around our globe there's no way that i could adequately express tonight my deepest and sincere appreciation for the burden of this peak conference who year after year after year have been unselfishly digged so deep and given to people that you will never meet early in the morning i received a text i received a text from kampala uganda the author of the text is a pastor that pastors grace apostolic pentecostal church isaac was born into a muslim household isaac was born to muslim parents isaac was born and raised in the muslim way a bright articulate brilliant young man he was noticed the nominal group approached him and paid his way to higher education in the process of their hopes of converting him and so he took their offer and he went to a four-year bible school of an unspoken denomination in the middle of his studies he told my wife and i later he said i made a notebook because it seemed like every time that i was digging into the new testament i kept seeing and they were baptized in the name of the lord jesus christ [Music] he said that just furthered the curiosity that came to me as i was studying the old testament and realized that god is not a trinity but god is one he said i begin to feel a little bit uncomfortable because here is a trinitarian organization paying for my college and in the midst of my study i'm realizing there's but one god and his name is jesus christ [Music] so he went to the internet and he began to search from a little village in kampala someone said there's a man in nairobi kenya bishop in gotha aston the connection was made quick story quick story he got to nairobi he was baptized in jesus name filled with the holy ghost this morning pastor isaac said hey dad i'm watching holy ghost radio it's very awesome conference peak 21. he said i wish i was there present physically he said wow i'm already drunk of the holy ghost and i'm moving in activity right now in kampala there are hundreds of people gathered right now that's watching you right now that understand they've been a recipient of the blessings of god in the giving of peak conference pastor isaac we're coming your way hold on brother we're coming your way [Music] five years ago i stepped off of an airplane in manila i was walking out of the jet way i was by myself i had my little roller bag i exited the plane i turned right to go down to get my checked bag it'd been a long flight i stepped out of the jet way if you've ever done a long flight you're kind of punched drunk you're not really you're not really sharp as far as your all your observations head down walking and i heard a man say pastor buxton i looked up a young man standing there with a blazer gray trousers i i stepped towards him and when i did i saw the large patch that was on his blazer which said office of the president philippines i was nervous i thought perhaps something's happened at home he said can i speak with you i said yes sir and i i just moved to the side as people were disembarking he said do you remember me i said i tried i really tried to but i said no i'm sorry i don't he said i was in one of the crusades and i received the holy ghost and god has changed my life he said i noticed that you were on the manifest of the flight i happened to be here and i just want to tell you something about what's happening he said we play holy ghost radio in the office of the president we listen to holy ghost radio just about every day he said and i know that in about five weeks you're going to have peak back in tulsa we all love to listen to the preaching and the singing and peak hey president duterte i don't know if you're listening right now but if you do from peak 2021 in tulsa hang on we're coming

there for the wade bass myself for the roger carruth and and brother mark bluin we got on an airplane and we flew we were the only oneness preachers in a lineup of trinitarians we preached every day about the oneness of god saturday saturday bishop mwinga came to me in the middle of a session and said i see it will you baptize me in jesus name we slipped out we slipped out of the service we went to a hotel and we rented the pool he said i want you to baptize me first because we're about to go back and baptize this entire conference i have it all on my phone tonight for any detractor that may not want to believe this but we baptize 118 preachers in the name of jesus christ for the remission of their sins one of those is bishop maxson banda who is the official chauffeur of the president of malawi he's been the official chauffeur for the last three presidencies he got the holy ghost i had the privilege of baptizing him in jesus name tonight bishop banda and his churches are watching us in tulsa oklahoma have peak conference 2021. every morning in national radio in malawi he prays the prayer for the nation of malawi and he told me recently he said i don't know what happened to me but

inevitable i would submit tonight that it's impossible for you to go home unhealed it's impossible for a home missionary pastor to go home steal burning down and weary every disease is going to have to bow at the foot of jesus christ tonight because of the atmosphere has been changed apostolics are the original climate changers for where two or three are gathered together in his name there he is in the midst as you return to your seats tonight i was thinking today in prayer and god spoke to me one word about the man that i have the honor to introduce to preach to us this final night of peak a gatekeeper a gatekeeper is a person who controls access to something or someone if i was showing going to take you into the world of psychology a gatekeeper gatekeeper would be the person who stands between the data collector and the potential respondents psalm 84 the psalmist said for a day in his courts is better than a thousand elsewhere then he went on to say i'd rather be a door keeper in the house of the lord then to dwell in the tents of wickedness he said i would rather let people in to the presence of the miraculous than to dwell in the courts of the wicked i've seen pastor hershey in valleys i've seen him on mountains i've seen him living in a home i've seen him living in living rooms i've seen him and his wonderful family on islands i've seen them abound and i've seen them a base i've seen him as a whole missionary pastor i've seen him as a conference speaker but no matter where i find this mighty man of god i find him so capably opening doors in the spirit realm for the apostolic movement tonight i know that god has sent pastor ersham to open a door tonight that will forever shift the trajectory of the pentecostal movement let's make welcome tonight pastor nathaniel ershan the door keeper from durham north carolina preach man of god let's continue to lift that praise to heaven tonight on all over this house let's lift that praise to the king of kings and the lord

apostolic hour it's time to be the church of the living god [Music] it is not time to backslide it's not time to grow lukewarm but it's time to talk in tongues [Music] it's time to shout until the glory of the lord falls down [Music] hallelujah hallelujah amen god bless you you can be seated in the presence of the lord what a wonderful atmosphere is here at this peak conference haven't we been blessed by the hand of god for those of you that have had the privilege of being here this this is a double portion not just because 2020 was what it was but but we have been caught up into heavenly places in christ jesus [Music] from the first message if you were blessed to hear bishop holmes preach wednesday night you heard a message for the ages you heard a message that the devil hates [Music] you heard a message that this world is desperately trying to silence amen but as long as we're here it's not going anywhere we're preaching in stronger work believing it more fervently we're giving glory to the god of heaven and earth amen and you heard a great message from a great man of god and then all throughout this week the wonderful the wonderful preaching brother will banks preached a message every apostolic needs to hear i want to praise him till his words are in my mouth for everybody that says you don't need the holy ghost and you don't need to speak in other tongues they don't know what they're talking about this is a tongue talking church [Music] this is a fire baptized church and you heard it and by the grace of god you have experienced it this week and i could go on and on about those i want to give honor to the those that make this possible i'm privileged to be part of this peak youth committee and the hard work they do and brother joel booker thank you for your hard work and your determination amen and all of this committee i give honor to you i give honor to the executive council and great men that are on there i could spend a lot of time on that but but bishop wilson and and the other brethren uh bishop godaire who is here tonight and from north carolina praise god [Music] and i bring you the regards and greetings from bishop johnny godaire who wishes he could be with us tonight and because of men like this pete conference is possible because of courageous stands and disciplined decisions thank god for men of god who say there's going to be a revival there's going to be a clear voice there's going to be a certain sound there's going to be vision we're not backing up we're not compromising we're going to preach it like we've always preached it praise god it's a good day to be part of a church like that so i want to give honor to these great men and to this great assembly it's friday night and it's time to have an outpouring of the holy ghost i want to leave this place drunk on the presence of god i want to leave this place saturated baptized amen stand with me in the presence of the lord what worship what preaching and tonight i want to invite you to turn with me to luke chapter one while you're turning there i am thankful my wife can be with me you know the buxton it's true god has taken us many places and sister urshan has been with me every step of the way and she has loved us she loves her sons she loves our daughter-in-law and she most of all loves god so i give honor to her tonight i love her very much i love my family i'm so thankful they could be here my extended family that is here tonight that is at this peak conference i love you all luke chapter 1 and verse 1. for as much as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us even as they delivered them unto us which from the beginning were eyewitnesses and ministers of the word it seemed good to me also having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first to right unto thee in order everybody say in order to write unto thee in order most excellent theophilus that thou mightest know the certainty everybody say the certainty the certainty of those things wherein thou hast been instructed now go to acts chapter one verse one two letters written to the same person by the same man who allowed god to inspire him and put pen to paper acts chapter one verse one a portion of scripture we love many of us can quote it the former treaties have i made oh theophilus he wasn't done with the story of all that jesus began both to do and teach until the day in which he was taken up after that he through the holy ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen to whom also he showed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs being seen of them forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of god and being assembled together with them commanded them that they should not depart from jerusalem but wait for the promise of the father which saith he ye have heard of me for john truly baptized with water but you shall be baptized with the holy ghost not many days hence [Music] aren't you glad to be apostolic aren't you glad to be a part of the blood-bought church of the living god aren't you glad you can run devils out of this place tonight oh somebody lift up your voice right now all over this building somebody somebody lift up your voice and give praise give glory to the god of heaven and earth thank you jesus we worship you god we magnify your great name blessed be the name of the lord blessed be the name of the lord tonight by the help of god i want to preach to you a message i'm entitling a letter to theophilus a letter to theophilus amen god bless you you can be seated i want to i want to take my time tonight because everybody else has taken their time and more importantly the holy ghost has something to say but this generation is a generation unlike any other this generation is it's a generation that has seen the entire world shut down in a concentrated coordinated effort that has left people more divided and in more chaos than we've ever seen you're the generation that knows what fake news is you're the generation that that they are testing out sociological dynamics to see how far they can push the envelope and how far they can push you and how far they can push me and and how far they can push the church and it does my heart good to see a a coliseum full of apostolics that say it doesn't matter what this world says it doesn't matter what this world does we will remember the name of the lord our god some trust in horses [Applause] some trust in chariots but we will remember the name of the lord praise god we've got to choose what we're going to believe are we going to believe this network are we going to believe that network are we going to believe the narratives that are being spun out from the left or from the right is trump the messiah or is he a demon i have an answer for that we're going to trust in the word of the lord somebody said which side are you going to pick with brothership here's the site i'm going to pick i'm going to pick god's side let every man let every man be a liar let god be true i came to peak 2021 to say let god be true [Applause] and every man a liar i'm not right i'm not left i'm with jesus and this is a generation of manipulation it's a social media generation it's a tick tock generation it's a snapchat generation it's a scrolling time consuming weight gaining frappuccino drinking generation it's a generation that has begun to feel that church is not important and the government is there happy to tell them that church is not important there are people that don't know what the big deal is why can't you just stay home why can't you just worship in private and my my response to that is that you've never been to an apostolic church service before [Applause] they've never been in an electric atmosphere where the power of god is poured out they've never felt the redeeming power of the holy ghost or the fire explosion of pentecost hey church is not an option worship is not an option praising god is not an option i've got to have it more than my necessary food [Applause] hallelujah and having said all that it's important that we take the time to read what the bible says has been set forth in order something that gives us a perfect understanding of all things so he writes a letter to theophilus god knew this day was coming it's one reason why he chose four writers to write the account of the gospel i did not say four gospels because there's only one gospel and there are four separate eyewitness accounts of that one gospel you need to thank god every day that you live that you know what that gospel is you need to thank god that you're a book of acts church i got news for somebody it's the only church that's going to make it it's the only church that's going to go through it's the only church that's coming out of here hallelujah it's been through the fire and the fire couldn't burn it it's been through the flood and the flood couldn't turn it [Applause] those old-timers knew what that meant it's the church triumphant oh lord and it's built by the hand of the lord and so theophilus i took the time to write to you i have a letter for you i have something i want to say to you he took the time to compile four witnesses because he knew that men and religions and denominations would twist his words he knew that doctrines would arise he knew that there would be denominations he knew that there would be distortions and perversions and abuses of the word of god and so the writer puts pen to paper and says we were eyewitnesses of his majesty i'm not here to talk about what somebody else saw i'm here to talk about what i saw theophilus and when you are debating a matter and you are worse litigating a matter when you are in a courtroom when there is a judge when there are attorneys when when your life is on the line you need all the evidence you can get and god knew that truth would be on trial god knew that that there would be judges that would arise that would distort the message and and pilots would arise who would wash their hands and condemn an innocent man to death he knew that and so he wrote four accounts of the one gospel so that everybody in the world would know exactly what happened i'm going to write it down from this perspective i'm going to change the angle a little bit and i'm going to write it down from that perspective and theophilus i need you to understand this i want you to know this now there are people who don't understand why we do what we do but the reason they took such pains and and made it such a priority is because they knew that generations were counting on us he knew that the generations that were going to come we're going to need the saving message of jesus christ he knew that they were going to need him through the dark ages he knew that they were going to need these accounts through the turns of the century he knew that as time passed and the planets rotated and the prophetic clock ticked that there was going to have to be a witness that said this is what the church looks like this is how the church worships this is how the church prays this is how you are baptized this is how a man or a woman receives the baptism of the holy ghost you've got to know it from generation to generation my bible says that his truth endureth to all generations i'm preaching unenduring truth it's not a truth that changes when political action's taken it's not a truth that changes when wealthy people decide they don't like it it's not a truth that changes as the society distorts into perversion and forgets what truth really is but it's a truth that endures to all generations it was true for your grandfather it was true for your great grandfather it was true for the apostles it was true for the martyrs it was true it's true for peak 2021 and honey it'll be true when the world is on fire heaven and earth shall pass away but my word my word my word shall never pass away to get this idea we see this in the patriarchs we see that in peop this and people who love god when it came time for for abraham to choose a wife for isaac he called his servant and he said put your hand under my thigh and swear to me by the god of heaven and earth that you will not take a wife from these people where we are god's church has never has never mixed and mingled with the idolatrous practices and the the norms of the society around them don't you be afraid of who you are theophilus don't you be afraid of who you are god's people have always been different than everybody around them they've always looked different they've always talked different they've always acted different they always have different priorities that's because their god is different you're not following the pop stars you're not following the athletes you're not following the gods of this world gods that cannot heal gods that cannot deliver gods that cannot set you free no sir no ma'am you're following jesus christ i came to worship jesus christ at peak 2021 and i don't want to worship him differently i don't want to praise him differently i don't want to know him differently so i took the time to set it in order most excellent theophilus that's because there's generational power in what we're doing tonight when he put his hand under his thigh it was an ancient covenantal symbol we see later on we see israel doing it with his son joseph when he says don't leave my bones in his egypt but when you go back to our land take my bones with you now if somebody were to put their hand under my thigh today we'd have a problem but what it meant in that day was that this is not only for me this is for the generations that will proceed forth from me the thigh was it was the reproduction of a man it was the future of a man the bible describes having children as as it says that they sprang from his loins and so there's generational power locked up in that in that oath what we're doing tonight matters it matters the praises that you're offering up they matter just like just like it mattered back at camp meetings as you were growing up it mattered that your parents took the time to praise god and praise god just like the bible says it matters that we don't back up one inch from what we know is true it matters that we preach it strong and we preach it powerful it matters that we worship with all of our heart mind soul and strength the message matters the prayer meetings matter the conferences matter the songs matter the doctrine matters it's got to be in order it's got to be it's got to be right it has to be a more perfect understanding because the truth is i'm not just praising him for me i'm praising him for the kids that are coming after me you're not just praising him for you but there's going to be generations that come forth from you and when they come forth they need to know what church looks like [Applause] they don't need to look back and say i remember when people used to run the isles i remember when people used to talk in tongues i remember when people used to dress holy and live righteous but they don't need to say that this is a truth that endures to all generations this is a doctrine that has always been right it is right now and it will always be right so i set it in order i set it in order this idea this is where he writes to theophilus i used to think that there was a guy named theophilus he was a fellow that went to the church there and luke enjoyed writing to him but there's an increasing body of evidence that theophilus is not just an individual perhaps he was but the name lends itself to another idea and and it means that the book of acts is not just for them but it's for me the name theophilus it's a compound name of two words it's theos and philo and it literally means god lover and so tonight i'm going to read to people who love god i want to talk about some letters written to some god-lovers because you're not going to make it out of this world if you don't love god you're not going to make it out if you follow a bunch of rules you're not going to survive this climate if you're just praising god because your parents praise god but you've got to be a theophilus you've got to be a lover of all things holy a lover of all things good a lover of all things righteous a lover of all things pure a lover of the doctrine a lover of the power of god i don't know about you but i love the atmosphere that's in this place right now i love the chains that fall off i love the joy of the lord that is my strength i love this apostolic message and these books aren't written to somebody else but they're written to the god lovers i enjoyed that the other day brother wilbanks i enjoyed it when somebody just gets into the word of god and starts preaching the word i enjoyed that message today brother booker there's not a lot of people that take the time to talk about the twins in the womb and take the time to talk about onan and ur and sheila not many time not many people take the time to even know the names of those people there's a denominal world that has no idea what that means but you know it god lover you took the time to appreciate the subtlety and the nuance you took the time to understand the shadow and the type you took the time to realize the principles that were being given in the word of god and so these letters are not written to the world at large they're written to the people that love god they're written to the people that will take the time to go through line upon line precept upon precept hear a little and very little if you'll take the time to do that you will not accept christ as your personal savior you will not count beads and splash holy water but if you take the time to get it like that then with stammering lips and another tongue god will speak to his people and it's not an extra blessing and it's not an option but it is the where would rest may cause the weary to rest and so most excellent theophilus i write to you this is a book of acts church this is not a denominal church this is not for the weekend warriors it's not for the people who are casually interested it's not for the people who only seek god when they get in trouble but he's a rewarder of them that diligently seek him my greatest fear tonight is that people are going to leave peak and go home and let life continue like it always has in church and out of church in church and out of church but i am persuaded better things of you theophilus i am persuaded that there's some lovers of god that are in this house that are going to take what you feel in this place and say if i can do it in tulsa oklahoma i can do it back in my home church if i can shout in tulsa i can shout back home if i can worship in tulsa i can worship at home if i come on theophilus you got to learn to praise him like we were always supposed to praise him you got to learn to live this let it get down in your bones and down in your dna and down in your spirit because that's the kind of church it's going to take there's a lot of people who love a lot of things and maybe i should just take a a second and just tell everybody that it's going to take the love of god and when i say that i'm not saying that in a sappy week compromising way i'm saying that because the love of god draws us here's what the bible says in the song of solomon it says i am my beloved and my beloved is mine paul said it like this he said i want to apprehend that for which i also am apprehended let me let me let me put it into a modern way of saying it you got to get a hold of the thing that's got a hold of you and it's not just that god loves you but you got to transition to where you love god you got to transition to where you love him not because your pastor's there not because your mom and dad is there not because somebody might find out but you gotta love him when nobody's there you gotta love him when nobody's watching you gotta love him when nobody's paying attention you gotta love him on sunday morning and you gotta love him on sunday night and you gotta love him on monday tuesday wednesday thursday friday saturday and all day sunday love him in the morning love him at night love him my beloved is mine because there's a world that is there that is anxious to take your hands off of that bible to take your hands off of that church to disentangle you from what you believe they locked us down for a year and a lot of people enjoyed it but not you god lover not you theophilus i'm persuaded better things of you most excellent theophilus when they said we got a shutdown peak there was a national collective groan but when they said peaks back open again there's about five six seven thousand young people that i was glad when they shout unto me let us go let us go let us go let us go i'm running back to the church i'm running back to the presence of god i'm running back to the atmosphere [Applause] these letters are for you if you give them a chance they'll talk you out of the need to be baptized in jesus name they'll tell you that that you're not saved by works because because the truth is many have taken in hand to set forth an order a declaration there's a lot of people with a lot of ideas you can google it and if you make the mistake of listening to your backslidden cousin if you make the mistake of listening to those people that walked away because they didn't love god but not you theophilus you know you know because you took the time to read matthew 28 19. go you therefore i'm amazed at the people who miss the therefore that therefore references the verse in 2818 oh power in heaven and earth is given unto the father the son the holy ghost it's given unto me and if you took the time theophilus you'll know that in him dwelleth all the fullness of the godhead bodily and you are complete not in them in him and so you god lover you took the time to open the pages you took the time to turn the text you took the time and so because because god knew that witnesses could lie they lied about jesus they destroyed him they distorted his words but but i gave you four witnesses theophilus and so if you're going to read matthew 28 8 19 you might as well go read luke 24 47. you might as well find out that repentance and remission of sins will be preached in his name whose name his name i will give you a j bishop i will give you an e i'll give you an s a you and an s because i love him i love him i love him and i'm searching i am his and he is mine when i wake up in the morning i love him when i go to bed at night i love him and if you're going to read luke you might as well go on to mark he that believeth and is baptized shall be saved he that believeth not shall be damned these signs shall follow them that belly somebody needs to preach this because theophilus has to get this message the god lover has to get this message the earnest seeker the sincere lover the one who wants the will of god sometimes it's in uganda sometimes it's in the philippines but there's a theophilus waiting on this ladder in my name they shall cast out devils now if you're too lazy because you don't love him if you're too lazy because you're only mildly interested if you're too lazy because you're really more interested in doing what the church you were raised in is spoon-feeding you then you're no theophilus and this letter is not for you but to you god lover you know better you took the time to see that then peter stood up with the eleven that means there were eleven other apostles there that said that's right that's what he said we were there we were eyewitnesses of his majesty go you therefore then peter said unto them repent and be baptized a few of you that get the time when you get around to it if you get around to it after you've accepted it and said a prayer you know better than that theophilus you know better than that god lover this letter's for you this letter every one of you in the name in the name in the name of jesus christ the name that casts out devils the name that blesses the name that you heal the sick with that name they'll try to talk you out of this but there's a drawing power to love there's a the bible calls the love of god or charity the bond of perfectness there's a cord that pulls you hosea said it like this he said i have drawn you with the cords of a man and with the bonds of love i pulled you it's not going to be enough to do it because you got a higher peak it's not going to be going to be enough to keep you you might as well settle it in your heart right now you will not serve god if you don't get this down in your dna i'm talking about when the lights go out the bus goes back home there better be a love of god down on the inside of you that said not only does he love me but i love him [Applause] i drew you i pulled you i your worldly friends won't pull you out when you love him when your best friend backslides you won't leave because you love him when family members walk away you won't walk away theophilus because i got a letter for you i got a message that only you can read i've got stuff it's not for denominations it's not for ideologies it's for the god lover hallelujah that's who this is for this is not a denomination book this is an apostolic book denominations don't have scriptures that belong to them but every word of god is pure and it's written to those who love him they'll tell you that this holy ghost is only for that first generation and they'll tell you that what you're experiencing here is a lot of emotion you might as well get ready because it's coming those ideas there's a lot of people who allow their love of god to grow cold what you heard bishop holmes preached the other night is so vital because if we walk in our flesh we will grow cold there's got to be a theophilus that understands the power of prayer i'm going to let you in a little secret right now a lot almost all backsliding happens when people stop praying it's not because the devil got stronger it's not because the world got more powerful it's not because somehow satan has devised some new weapon against us there is no weapon bombed against you that shall prosper and i came to tell somebody prayer still works that's right prayer still works in 2021 prayer still works the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man it's still availeth much uh you don't understand how how much temptation there is out there brother ursian you don't know what it's like to live in this world i know that elias was a man subject to like passions he felt the same stuff you feel he wrestled with the same temptations that you feel he fought through the same stuff that we have to fight through but the prayer of elijah is the same kind of prayer that you can have right now pray until god starts talking pray until his voice comes over the intercom pray until the spirit maketh intercession if you're a god lover you know that talking in tongues is for you they want to tell you you don't need to receive the holy ghost it's only for them this is emotion this is for unstable people that's just because they're not a god lover because if you got the same holy ghost i got you wouldn't be trying to talk people out of it i know you don't have the same holy ghost i've got if you're trying to talk me out of getting the holy ghost you must be out of your mind this is joy unspeakable and full of glory if you thought it was emotion you don't have the same thing i got the holy ghost i got it breaks the chains the holy ghost i'm god it sets the captive free the spirit of the lord is upon me he sent me to bind up the brokenhearted proclaim liberty to the captain the opening of the prison to them that are bound to proclaim the acceptable year of the lord to comfort all that mourn in zion are you depressed are you watching social media wondering how their life is so good and your life is so bad you need to stop believing the lie you need to stop believing the witchcraft of a digital age that is making you sit in a dark room laying in your bed endlessly scrolling through the lies of desperate people come on theophilus you've got better than that you you've got something abraham wanted to see you've got something noah wanted to see you've got something to kings and prophets and the promise is unto you and your children to all that are afar off that's you crazy gentiles by the way if you're a gentile you need the holy ghost i want to talk to somebody dealing with depression maybe you need to put the pills down and you need to go back to the prayer room because that's what works that's what brought the fire of pentecost that's what brought the power of god they prayed they prayed they prayed until the house was shaken you're not backsliding because the world's more powerful people backslide because they forget to pray there's a lot of people that think they have a sin problem and what they have is a prayer problem we can't allow ourselves to become a sedentary church because theophilus i made this treatise of all that jesus began both to do and teach pentecost they can teach it but they're not always so great at doing it if you know what's right but you don't have the power to do it it's time to start doing i came to preach to a book of acts church praise god i came to talk to pete 2021 and say it's time to start doing you've got everything you've need the world's never been more desperate there's never been a darker hour this is your time to do to do i need some theophilus to rise up and say i'm gonna pray like they prayed i'm gonna shout like they shouted i'm gonna sing like they say i'm going to witness like they witness i that's when the book of acts works that's who the book of acts is written to it doesn't work if i don't do you don't need another high-powered revival i need a prayer room i need to go into a prayer room and i need to find the mind of god i need to grab a hold of this stubborn flesh this carnal nature and i don't need to deal with it i don't need to negotiate with it i don't need to collaborate with it i need to crucify it i need to crucify my bad attitude i need to crucify my lack of thankfulness i need to crucify my come on come on god lover you've got to crucify laziness you gotta we have more than we've ever had people aren't dying because they're starving they're dying because they're eating too much there's a lot of sitting back and just taking in the world there's a lot of people who don't believe you should have a television in your home but but they'll certainly devour youtube and if you'll sit there all day long in front of a video game or in front of social media or in front of the internet and your prayer life is atrophying and just my god have mercy i need a theophilus to rise up to say it's time to pray like i never prayed it's time to pray before i die come on come on that's the that's what made the book of acts powerful that's what made azusa street happen that's what made topeka kansas happen that's what made every great outpouring there's got to be something that draws you to a prayer room there's got to be something that draws you to the word of god if you know the stats of your sports team more than you know the scripture then there's no wonder you're addicted to porn i got a question for peak 2021 what do you love what do you love where do you spend your time where do you give your energy to show me where you spend your effort and i'll show you who you love young men that are supposed to protect your young warriors to be raised up to fight for the kingdom of god if you find yourself endlessly scrolling through the internet and trying to get young ladies to send you naked pictures that's the kind of generation i'm preaching to right now that's not a theophilus generation the bible said that they would be lovers of pleasure more than theophilus more than lovers of god and if you're going to overcome the generation that has easy access at your fingertips used to be you could legislate things and you could say don't go here don't go there but now all those places are in your pocket all those places are readily acceptable accessible and right now i'm looking at a group of young people some of you are wrestling with this if your parents knew what you were watching if your pastor knew what you were looking at there is a devil in hell that is wrapping his cords around you because iniquity would abound it didn't say because transgression would abound it said because iniquity i'm talking about inside sin i'm talking about i'm talking about sin that that that grows inside of you while you still look apostolic it makes your prayer room grow cold it makes when was the last time you studied the word of god when's the last time you took delight in the word of god when is the last time if you are falling in love with the world by reading by watching by by engaging with the world your love is growing cold services grow cold worship grows cold desire grows cold churches are shutting their doors because they've lost their love for god believe it or not peak there are there are apostolic people that cannot believe the worship that's in this place at during this conference why does it feel so powerful why does it feel so strong when you come here can you still preach like they preach at peak and people still love it [Applause] you can when you fall in love with him you can when you know what first corinthians 11 says [Applause] it's a shame for a man to have long hair it's a glory for a woman to have uncut hair when you love him when you love him and that's not a letter just written for there that's an open letter to everybody that loves god there's a denominal world that's petrified right now because they're dealing with sins they didn't see coming but i'm so excited about you theophilus i'm so excited for every god lover that stood the test of time there are people that believe that that the the code of deuteronomy that the man shall not wear that which pertaineth to a woman a woman shall not wear that which pertains to a man a man shall not put on a woman's garment there was a religious world back in the 1940s that said that's not a big deal society said it and when society said it there was a world that whose love had grown cold a world that was embracing every wicked an ungodly thing in the 50s and 60s came and it became mainstream this cross-dressing thing didn't start in 2019 20 and 21 it started in the 1940s and a society in a religious world that lost the battle at cross-dressing in 1940 can't stand against it in 2021 but god lover you stood the test of time you made it through the 70s you made it through the 80s when they laughed at you when they mocked you when they pointed fingers at you at your skirts at your pants they laughed at you and said it's not necessary but thank god thank god you fell in love with the god of heaven and earth [Applause] because there's a church that still believes it [Applause] it's not a battle we have to fight we fought it a long time ago we knew what deuteronomy 22 5 said because every lover of god took the time there's got to be a theophilus in each generation there's got to be a god lover hallelujah the scriptures i love bible preaching a lover of god loves bible preaching there's something about when a preacher takes the time to study the word of god there's something about when a man of god takes the time to dig out the principles of the word of god and then they preach that there's something powerful when you have an atmosphere like this right here you're living in a religious world that's trying to tone down what we're doing they want to they want to sit down and lecture they want you to dress casual the problem with dressing casual is your spirit becomes casual i'm not beating up on anybody i'm just i'm just talking to theophilus right now i'm just talking about to every man woman boy and girl that says i love him so much i'm gonna bring the best i have laugh at me if you want to mock me if you want to but i believe the king of kings and the lord of lords is worthy of my absolute best [Applause] and i don't want a casual approach to bleed into my worship and to bleed into my consecration and to bleed no no theophilus you can't let that happen and if you allow your preaching to be muted i still want to get excited about preaching a lot of the problems with people who close their doors and lose their victory and lose their power it's not because the people do it's because preachers do it's because preachers and their wives love hollywood and they love the world and the preaching grows more quiet and and their their revelation is stale and their walk with god becomes perfunctory and they bring cold dead lives to a cold lifeless pulpit and worship grows stale and the fire stops falling and the power of god isn't felt like it used to be and carnal carnal approach creates carnal worship it becomes a social movement it becomes a it becomes help the poor it becomes praise god but i'm in love with jesus don't tell me this worship doesn't matter when i'm in love with god i'm happy to give tithe an offering i don't my my my i i read an article one of my young men sent me an article the other day and said that that modern day denominal churches they're having to close their doors because people won't give tithe an offering there's another generation that's passing off the scene in a new generation oh they still give their tithe they just give it to the arenas and they give it to the entertainment venues and they they give it to the alcohol industry and they give it to tobacco and marijuana and cannabis they still give their offerings they still worship at the altars of this world but they forgot how to love god there's got to be an apostolic church that says we love to give we love to give because when i give god gives back good measure pressed down shaken together running over i need a theophilus to say i i'm not going to let my grandfather out give me i'm not going to let my father out give me the church is not going to die on my [Applause] watch hallelujah i don't want to preach a lot longer but i'm talking to lovers of god he said i'll draw you with cords of love i'm drawn to the prayer room i'm drawn to the bible [Music] and i felt the holy ghost speak to my heart before i came to peak this year and said you need to tell the apostolic church that they need to learn how to stay in love with me i will draw them i will gather them i want everybody to understand something the bible says that theophilus here's how it happened he showed himself alive with many infallible proofs and and he and he brought them together and the bible says where they were assembled there's an assembly if you read that word in the original language it means a gathering and one word says unaccumulating one of the great dangers of this world is they don't realize that there's an outside agency working on them don't you know that you are not your own don't you know that no man can come except the father draw him something drew you to peak something drew you to this altar so the love of god the beauty of god it drew people from all over this great nation and year after year it draws you and week after week on a local level it draws you and it should draw you on a daily basis you are not your that doesn't just mean we belong to god but you can belong to the devil too he knows how to draw you the bible tells us that he would gather us that we would be gathered the bible talks about not forsaking forsaking the assembling of ourselves together what we love will gather us i want to talk to every young person wrestling with sin wrestling with temptation you feel the magnetism of that brother williams you preached so capably last night you talked about the seduction of sin that's the drawing power of sin it draws young men it draws young ladies and if you have fallen in love with the wrong thing it is not just that you're tempted it's not just that you're struggling listen to me and hear what i'm about to say you are being gathered you are either being gathered as chaff to be burned or you're being gathered as wheat into the barn do you ever wonder why you feel so much more comfortable around those worldly people you ever wonder why you feel so awkward around church people and you'd rather go towards something unclean and unholy when you're not right with god that's because there's something in you
