Built To Multiply (Vaughan Choudree, 09/06/25)

In the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ,

let us pray. Father God, we thank you so much

for bringing us to church today, and we thank

you for the beautiful singing and all those that

took part in this beginning of the service, Cindy

and Jennifer, who are so passionate about the

storytelling. We thank you, Jesus, for blessing

every person here today. In your loving name,

amen. So I really enjoy that story which you

talk about going down the river, Jennifer. I

was born in South Africa, and of course we moved

to the UK afterwards, but we go down the river

there with kayaks or something, whitewater rafting,

and if you fall out the boat, you've got to get

to shore as quickly as possible because there's

crocodiles in the water, which is really cool.

All right, today we're going to read John 8 .31,

and it says, Then Jesus said to those Jews who

believed him, If you abide in my word, you are

my disciples indeed. And of course, 32 says,

And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall

make you free. But if you read further back,

let's go back to John 8, 27. They did not understand

that he spoke to them of the Father. Then Jesus

said to them, When you lift up the Son of Man,

Then you will know that I am he, and that I do

nothing of myself, but as my Father taught me.

I speak these things, and he who sent me is with

me. The Father has not left me alone, for I always

do those things that please him. As he spoke

these words, many believed him. So as Jesus spoke

to the Jews, they began to believe him and what

he was teaching, right? Excuse me. I'd like to

share a story. I don't know, all of a sudden

I've got a runny nose. Okay, so I work for Collegedale

Church, and we had two HVAC technicians that

came over, and these guys had a really fun time

at the church because it was the week of VBS,

and we have a really big VBS, probably like 450

to 500 children at the VBS. The older guy, he

was probably about maybe 60 years old. And so

I started asking him, like, hey, do you guys

have VBS at your church? So he said, no. And

of course, knowing me, I like to prompt, you

know, talk, tell me about it. So he said, oh,

no, I don't go to church. And the other technician

who was working with him for several months wasn't

aware of this, but she belongs to the Baptist

church. It was a tiny church, and they had no

kids, so they never had VBS. So I said, come

on, come and have a look at the VBS. And I saw

the kids singing and doing all sorts of stuff.

They were excited, especially the girl. And of

course, that was my opportunity now to disciple.

So it was really awesome. Thank you so much.

I'm sorry, I forgot my hanky today. Perfect,

thank you. I'm good, thank you. So I spoke to

them and I spoke to the gentleman as well. I

started saying, man, if you'd like to come to

our church. I'll come and pick you up if you

don't have a vehicle. I know he has a vehicle.

But I was just kind of being warm, you know.

And if you're passing by, you're welcome to come

and sit and watch the VBS. And they were on the

clock. And, of course, we were paying for them.

So I said, come, come with me. They said, oh,

they can't do it. I said, listen, we're paying

you guys. Come. So he had a great time. But,

of course, he had an experience in his life at

church that he stopped going to church because

of that. And I don't want to reveal that information,

but that is between, you know. But the young

lady was so impressed. She said she so wished

she had a church where they had VBS. So I said,

you know what? And she also belongs to another

Baptist church. I said, every time, it was our

VBS week, and I gave her the dates. And I said,

you're welcome to come over here and help us.

So you can learn how we do things, so you can

go and share it with your church and other people

in the communities. So she was really excited

about that. Because even you guys, you're welcome

to visit us for VBS Week at Collegedale, at the

university campus. It's really interesting. But

church family, this morning we gathered around

a simple but powerful truth. Jesus didn't just

call us to believe. He called us to multiply.

How do we multiply? We've got to be disciples.

Because as disciples, we duplicate. We make more

disciples, right? So we must remember that. Jesus

does not want us just to believe. We've got to

go out and reach people, reach the communities.

In Matthew 28, 19 to 20. Go therefore and make

disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the

name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit,

teaching them to observe all that I have commanded

you. And behold, I am with you always to the

end of age. Notice, Jesus didn't say go and get

people to agree with you. He said make disciples.

Why? Because by believing, belief is the beginning

of the journey. But that's not the end goal.

Discipleship. is the goal. In John 8 .31 it tells

us, and he makes it plain, we need to abide in

the word and make by disciples, as a disciple,

you will definitely do things to honor Jesus.

Is that correct? So today we start with belief,

and that belief is where it starts. Jesus is

speaking in John 8 .31 to people who already

believed him. The Jews believed the gospel, right?

But they believed in God and not Jesus. But they

had faith in his teachings. They were open to

instruction. But Jesus didn't say, because you

believe, it's okay. He did challenge them. He

said, don't stop at belief. Continue in my word.

In other words, read your Bible every day. Don't

just read it and say, oh, I read it. I read my

five chapters. You know what? You don't read

one chapter. Right, brother? One chapter and

learn it. So you can share it with other people.

That's the important thing, to understand the

Bible, understand the word. But if you think

about it, in James 2 .19, it tells us that even

the demons, even the demons know that Jesus is

God. And they tremble at his name. And we've

read about this. You believe that there is one

God. You do well. Even the demons believe and

tremble. But what happens with us? God isn't

a one -time thing. He's not a one -time moment.

God is a lifetime commitment. So if we get up

every day, get on our knees, pray, pray for our

family, pray for our church family, for friends,

so we can get out there and reach communities.

It's important because sometimes there are communities

around that have never visited your church or

any other church. Why? We have not invited them.

It's very simple. We can say that we fit because

we bought a gym membership. It doesn't work like

that, right? It's the same with the book, with

the Bible, the Word. You need to read it every

day because as you read the Bible, you'll be

transformed. And that transformation happens

when? When we pray and we read. That's important.

We need to read the Bible continuously, daily,

with family and friends. You know, it's important

for us to even share the word with anybody you

come into contact with. Whether they're Christian

or non -Christian. I'd like to share this. We

actually, I'm from a city called Durban in South

Africa. It's on the east coast. And it's a lot

like Florida. You have one season, hot. So I

lived there a long time, but I didn't really

like it. But because all the family was there,

we stayed. It's a good life because you live

around, everything happens on the beach, and

everyone has swimming pools, so you have lots

of fun. But on a Sunday morning, about 300 to

400, oh, thank you so much. Thank you. About

300 to 400. of us Adventists would walk around

with our green t -shirts with our seven Adventists

on the back and have all markings, and we would

approach anybody. We don't care which church

you belong to, we would talk to you. So there

were Jews, there were Muslims, Hindus, Tamils,

and of course all those people have a completely

different belief system to us. So we would speak

to these guys. And even the Jehovah's Witnesses,

we'll get them. You know, they always catch people

on Sunday morning. So we will catch them on the

beach and we will just stay there and we'll hammer

them, you know. In a nice way, in a nice way,

okay. So we need to, the Greek word for abide

is meno. And the meaning of that is to continue,

to dwell. So we want Jesus to dwell in our hearts.

If we have Jesus in our hearts. When we come

into contact with people, I think we should only

say kind things, right? Because it's not self,

it's Jesus. So if we have Jesus speaking through

us, we're just the instruments, we're the vessels.

So when we are kind to people, it'll change us.

It'll change us, it'll change our lifestyle,

our thoughts, our decisions, and even our conversations

with people. We'll only be talking about... The

Bible about Jesus. And that's our job. Because

God sent Jesus out to spread the gospel and make

disciples. So he got 10 disciples and they split

up and they went on. And now we are just a continuation

of that. Am I right? We're the continuation of

those disciples. We are here to do the same thing.

So it's important as we read our Bibles, we need

to study. So it's not just about reading 10 chapters

for the day. And that's how I used to read before.

Until I was corrected, you know. But we need

to read with understanding. So the Bible needs

to inspire us. We were talking earlier in Sabbath

school. Brother Ben laid out and we had a wonderful

Sabbath school. Thank you for that. And we were

talking about how people, how the Jews just came

up with ideas. It wasn't the Jews that came up

with ideas. It was God who inspired them. And

we know that, you know, inspiration comes from

Jesus, from God. So it's important for us to

trust God because he will take care of us. In

John 15, 7, it says, If you abide in me and my

words abide in you, you can ask for whatever

you wish for. But if you think about when a child

asks a parent for something, the parent loves

their child. And likewise, God loves us so much

more that he wants to provide and give us things.

But he will only give us things within reason.

I know many people who've had hardships in their

lives and we pray and they pray for financial

blessings, you know. And they don't realize that

sometimes when we pray together, we say, life's

not just about finances. You know, when you're

most blessed, is when people love and care for

you and you love and care for others. That's

a blessing. And so the guys just pray for money.

But in my opinion, I just feel that God blesses

some people to be very wealthy and others not

so. But you have enough, right, Brother Darren?

You have enough to survive and pay your bills.

And I just think that's a blessing in itself.

So many people... have this misconception, and

they think, if I win the lottery, man, I can

do so much. You know what? If you win the lottery,

those people who cannot manage money, you can

have $100 million, and within a couple of years,

it's gone. Unfortunately. So when we abide in

Jesus, and Jesus abides in us, we stay rooted.

And it's important, because if we are rooted,

And we stay close to our source. And Jesus is

the source. As it tells us in Psalms 113, the

tree is planted near the stream, but the tree

doesn't move. It produces good fruit. So it stays

close to its source, which is the river, the

water. If we stay close to our source, which

is Jesus, we'll be grounded and we'll be blessed.

So that's very important. So it's not just about

keeping in touch with Jesus occasionally. It's

not like you're going to visit Jesus. We need

to be with Jesus, walk with Jesus every day of

our lives. You know, sometimes people think I'm

crazy, but when I'm walking around the church

there by us, the church is a little bigger than

this church, Collegedale. And we walk around

there, and I like to... I like to pray aloud,

you know. Of course, I don't pray super loud,

but I talk, you know, when I pray. And I'm walking

around, and I'm praying, and I pray, Lord, please

bless every person that enters the church. Keep

everybody safe. Bless their families. Bless our

friends. Just bless everybody, the sick people,

et cetera. And people, sometimes people who don't

know me, they think, man, this guy's crazy, you

know. But I'm talking to Jesus, and that's the

way I like it, you know. And I love to sing.

He's able, you know, and I sing that and I walk

around and do my work. So we need to be just

like the tree, to be planted close to our source

of nourishment. From the source, it keeps us

strong, keeps us faithful, and we are nourished

spiritually. So the fruit that we produce will

be a good reflection of Jesus, the goodness,

the love, the kindness, and we'll remember. That

as we thrive in goodness, people will want to

be with you. Because if you're a good person,

a kind person, have you ever noticed when you

have a conversation with someone and you speak

very kindly to them, it opens an opportunity

for you to share the gospel. Have any of you

ever experienced that? It's amazing. Sometimes

you're speaking and sometimes you're working

and you're rushing. And it's a work environment.

But if you just step back and just take a minute

and speak to the person kindly, caringly, that

person is willing to listen to you when you talk

about Jesus. Even the person who's not even a

Christian, they will listen. So the thing is,

my mom was Muslim. And when she married my dad,

Of course, I wasn't around, but it was a big

thing. So they didn't come to go to their wedding,

et cetera. But my mom became Christian. And she

was happy not to be with her family. I'm sure

she missed them. But so she was always very careful.

You know, she'd be praying over us. And, oh,

man, it was super crazy for us because she would

always be instilling us, instill the story in

us, you know, the love of Jesus, all those type

things. Of course, it's good, you know. But,

of course. I was a bit of a naughty guy, but

my mom, she would give me a spanking every day,

even if I didn't need it. But that's South Africa.

You straighten the child out very quickly. So

I always took the brunt of it. So that's okay,

but I know Jesus has blessed me for that. So

Jesus has made it clear, because obedience is

the proof of discipleship. Abiding leads to freedom.

That's in John 8 .32. So John 8 .32, And you

shall know the truth, and the truth shall make

you free. They answered him, We are Abrahams,

we are, sorry, where is this one? Sorry, sorry,

sorry. We are Abrahams, we put out of the synagogue.

I'm sorry, I'm lost here. So anyway. You shall

know the truth. And in Luke 6 .46, the challenge

is clear. The challenge is very clear. It tells

us, we were talking earlier about, we all say

that we know Jesus. We know God. We all say,

Lord, Lord. But we don't listen to what Jesus

teaches us, what God teaches us. So the important

thing is for us to obey. Obey Jesus. And stick

with Jesus all the way, no matter what. In any

situation, Jesus will have you covered. He's

got your back, and he'll protect you. Obedience

is not optional for a disciple, because that

comes naturally, to be obedient to Jesus as a

disciple. Because you want to do kind things.

You want to be like Jesus. And Jesus is a good

person, is a good God. So we want to be like

Jesus. If you walk with God, can you think about

this? If we do an inspection today to say, how's

your walk with God? Will it be clear that you

prove to be a disciple for Jesus? Or would it

be completely different? Maybe just be a religious

routine. True disciples are not lukewarm. They

are bold. They are bold for Jesus. So no matter

where you are, you know, I'd like to just share

this story. Sorry I'm deviating. When we came

to America and we're in the South, we love it

here. I wouldn't want to give this up for anything.

But in South Africa, you had a mixed pot, you

know. We had friends that were all different

religions, all different colors. We'd just be

there and we'd do things together. And you could

tell people about Jesus. And of course, for me,

I love to hammer my Muslim friends and my Hindu

friends. And I say, guys, there's only one way.

There's only one way, and that's through Jesus

and with Jesus. But the Muslim guys always say,

if they become Christian, they'll be Seventh

-day Adventists. Do we know why? It's our diet.

It's our diet. But I said, end of the day, it's

all about Jesus. You can get up there and say

what you want to say. You guys worship false

prophets. Of course, we mustn't be so harsh,

but these are close friends. We can talk. We

need to talk openly. They used to also try and

hammer me, but I said, let's open the Bible.

And I said, sometimes you get to a part in the

Quran that says, if you don't understand this,

refer to the Bible. Have you ever heard that?

It tells them, you need to refer to the Bible.

So when you show them that, And these guys' eyes

opened so wide. That's amazing. But we must be

very careful. We must not be wishy -washy. We

need to be bold for Jesus. Have you ever heard

of the narrow few principle? Okay, the narrow

few principle works like this. It's like a bottleneck.

The fewer people you reach out to, the fewer

people, the fewer souls you win. You make less

disciples. So let's say your closing ratio is

10%. So if you only speak to 10 people for the

month, you make a disciple of one person. But

if you speak to 100 people for the month, 10

% is 10, and so on. So that's the narrow few

principle. So the more people you speak to, the

more people you can convert and make disciples.

When you make a disciple and they come to church,

they mustn't just sit and warm the pews. They

need to help Cindy. Because I see that poor young

lady has worked like crazy in this church, you

know. So we need to get people in here to volunteer

and to be committed. That's one way of keeping

people in the church. In Ministry of Healing,

page 148. We are told that every church should

be a training school for our Christian people.

Does that make sense to you? We need to train

everybody. I personally think we need to train

them young so they can be committed to Christ.

And we need to make church exciting for the young

people. I remember when we lived in the UK. And

I hope you don't mind me sharing this. I like

to share my, you know. I had a little daughter

at the time. Well, she's big now. I still have

her. But she had just turned four years old,

and we were worshiping at Newbold College. And

Newbold didn't, they used to worship in the

hall that time. That was back in 2000. And it

was traditional service. So, of course, for a

four -year -old child, it wasn't exciting. It

was not exciting. So we found this church just

across the road from Newbold. It was an Anglican

church, but it was rented by Newbold College.

And that service was loud. And they had drums

and guitars and all sorts of instruments. But

this little girl of mine was so excited to go

to that church service, I said, Lord, forgive

me. I'm going to go sit there with my child.

So I would take her straight off to Sabbath school.

Because if you don't go straight off to Sabbath

school to that service, you will not get in.

You'll be standing in the vestibule, or you'll

be looking through the windows. That small little

Anglican church was full, full to capacity. But

my daughter was excited to go to church. And

every Sabbath, we'd be rushed in the morning

to be on time for Sabbath school and to be super

early for that church service. It's not always

the best thing, but if it works for the particular

child or the person, I think we should do it.

I'm not saying change things in your church.

Please don't misunderstand me. So we have 1 ,440

minutes in a day. How do you plan to use those

minutes? These are 1 ,440 opportunities in a

day. How would you make these work for you? So

it's important for you to use your time effectively

and efficiently to serve Jesus. Because God is

a God of order. He's a God of love. But he plans

things. So there's another piece that I've picked

up. People are leaving churches, not just our

church, every church. Why? They don't feel included.

They don't feel like they're loved. So the simple

thing about discipleship is, where does the mission

start? At the front door, the greeter. When I

came in, sister and brother greeted me very warmly.

If I didn't have a church, this would be my church

because of them. And that's how it works. You've

got to greet people. Can you imagine if a visitor

comes to your church and the greeter's there?

Welcome. You know, no smile, no handshake. That

person is not going to feel welcome. So it's

a very simple thing. Just be warm and kind and

loving and a genuine welcome. But you must remember,

as we spoke earlier, even in a workplace, or

if you walk in the store, you're going to buy

bread and milk or whatever, my wife often...

It gives me a bit of grief because wherever I

go, I'm always talking about church and things

like that. And sometimes I know I may overdo

it. I stand and talk to a person for 10 minutes

and I don't know this person from anywhere. But

we talk. And then all of a sudden we exchange

numbers and we contact each other later and we'll

have a Bible study. Whether it's over the phone

or they'll come to the church or whatever. But

it's simple things. And I'm not forceful. I don't

force myself on anybody. But I just like to be

kind, greet them nicely, and say, hey, Jesus

loves you. And the person will say, hey, sometimes

some people haven't even heard about Jesus. And

that's in America. Can you believe that? In America.

So I come from Africa, and man, people know about

Jesus there. And I come to America, this great

country, and people don't know about Jesus. So

that's kind of shocking for me. But kindness

definitely opens the door. A smile is like a

magnet. It draws people. People may not say things,

but it's powerful. It shows the love of Christ.

And that's so important, to be loving and to

be kind. In Luke 14, 23, it tells us, Then the

master said to the servants, Go out into the

highways and hedges and compel them to come.

Come in that my house may be filled. But if you

read further back, let's read 16. A certain man

gave a great supper and invited many and sent

his servant at suppertime to say those that were

invited are to come over because they are ready

for them. But these people that were invited

all made excuses. Are we like those people? Sometimes

I feel that I am. Especially friends that invite

us out, non -adventures invite us for lunch on

Sabbath to their homes, because obviously I won't

go to a restaurant, but to their homes. And I'm

the type of guy, I work the whole week, I work

long hours. When it gets to Sabbath, I like lay

activity, you know. So we must be very careful.

Because Jesus is inviting us. And sometimes that

opportunity to go and sit with non -Adventists

is what Jesus wants us to do. Just to be kind,

loving, and to sometimes just talk about the

Bible. I have my special verses that I like to

talk to people about. And sometimes my kids say

I'm embarrassing, but, you know, if you share

something, people will go, they become inquisitive.

And I don't. Push it on them. I say, go and read

your Bible. Not my Bible. Read your Bible. So

we need to remember, simple things makes things

happen. So we're talking about we must not make

excuses. Because when it comes to Jesus, we need

to go out there full force. Put on our coats,

not formal, casual, so we can go out and reach

these people. We need to reach the communities,

which is people in our community that would like

to come to church. At our church, we've been

getting lots of Muslim visitors, Hindu visitors,

lots of Indian folks are coming over to the church,

and people are searching for Jesus. People are

searching, people. They really are. We may not

notice it, but people are really out there, and

they're hungry for the truth. So we need to invite

these people in. Sister White reminds us, one

soul is more value to heaven than a world of

houses, land, and money. One life changed for

Christ can set off a chain reaction that multiplies

for eternity. So every disciple you reach and

you make will make more. Can you imagine if you

make one, that person makes two? Those two make

two. The numbers increase. So we need to go out

there and make disciples of people. God gives

us a simple example. Do we know Abraham from

the Bible? Joseph? Job? Abraham, who walked blameless

before God. So Abraham lived a life of integrity

and obedience. But God made him a father of many,

didn't he? So we need to keep up that integrity,

that way of life. It's very important. And what

about Job? Job suffered. He lost his family.

He lost wealth. We don't care about money, but

we worry about our family, our children. He lost

those people. But Job never cursed God. He continued

to trust God and love God. Even told his wife,

because his wife said, why don't you die, you

know, and then you can just curse God. He said,

no way, he'll never do that. And then Joseph,

Joseph, even he prospered in prison. The prison

warden trusted Joseph so much that he gave him

the power to be in charge of all the other prisoners.

Can you imagine that? That's the guy that was

sold. Do you remember? He was sold. But that

was God's plan. He turned him into a good person,

a good leader. God blessed him. So Genesis 39,

God is with him in prison, giving him favor as

he put him in charge of all the other prisoners

and allowing the warden to trust him to lead

the other prisoners. These are the promises.

I like to hold on to. Philippians 4 .19. Does

anybody know that one? My God shall supply all

your needs according to His riches in glory by

Christ Jesus. That's one, but I've got five.

We must remember, this particular verse tells

us that God loves us. He cares about us. When

something happens to you, God knows. He knows.

If something bad happens to you, He gets sad.

It's like a parent. If something happens to you,

as big and old as I am, my dad is late, but my

mom, if something has to happen to me, she'll

be worried about me. Well, at least I hope. But

God will be sad. So God makes a way, no matter

what our challenges we face, the challenges we

face, God will help us overcome this. The second

one for me is Philippians 4 .13. We should all

know that one. We can do all things through Christ

who strengthens me. So you know we can do all

things. In Sabbath school, we spoke about the

things we can accomplish with Christ and the

things we can accomplish without Christ, which

is nothing. So we need to trust Jesus because

Jesus will make it happen for you. Then the third

one is 1 Corinthians 10 .13. No temptation has

overtaken you except what is common to mankind.

God will give you a way out of temptation. Let's

trust Jesus and follow Jesus every day of our

lives. The fourth one is Micah 7, 18 to 19. God

pardons sin and forgives the transgression. God

forgives our sins. Why? Because he loves us.

It's like a baby. If you smack your child that's

three or four years old, That child will forgive

you very quickly. But smack your brother or your

sister, oh, they're going to hold a grudge against

you forever, you know. So he loves us so much,

and he wants us to prosper. The fifth one, Isaiah

41 .10. Do not fear, for I am with you. Do not

be dismayed, for I am your God. God is with you,

so we should never fear. He is present. At every

single minute of the day. You're never alone.

He's always got you. So we need to live this

mission daily. There are over 2 billion people

in the world that have never heard about Jesus.

Including people in America. Yet every day we

pass people in the supermarket, on the roads,

wherever we are, we pass people who have never

heard about Jesus. So we need to be bold. Even

if we have a simple Jesus loves you t -shirt,

that simple t -shirt will get people's attention

and they will want to acquire about Jesus. So

we need to be active, be welcoming, be warm.

We must be quick to forgive. When people do something

against us, we need to forgive them. We need

to mentor people, mentor the next generation,

share the gospel, talk about Jesus, pray and

read your Bible every day. Have you thought about

this? The more people you teach about the word,

the better you become. You are more blessed than

the person you're teaching because you learn

it. And I tell you, if you read something 20

times or 50 times, it's like the back of your

hand. You know where to find it in the Bible

quickly. You can actually just say it out loud

without even looking at your Bible. That's what

a blessing it is. I remember there was a pastor

who had finished, left school in elementary school.

But he read the Bible about a hundred times.

And he could quote just like that. He was so

blessed. And it was a blessing to be in his company.

Because when he preached, he would just preach

and he'd rattle off from the Bible without even

looking at his Bible. And of course, we'll check

through the Bible quickly and see if it's true.

And he was 100 % correct all the time. So the

mission is not just for pastors or missionaries

or evangelists. It's for every one of you. That's

the mission. We need to go out there and reach

communities. Even a child, I was looking at the

young lady that was singing up here today. She

did such a great job. I forgot her name, I'm

sorry. But she did a great job. Even a child

that shares a story about Jesus with another

child, that's part of the mission. They're spreading

the gospel. They're making disciples. So when

this child advances the mission by singing up

here and going to school and telling their friend,

that friend will be inspired to do the same thing.

They don't always have the courage to do what

she does, but you know, maybe someday. But we

need to remember, belief begins the journey.

And we need to abide so we can sustain the journey.

But obedience also proves the journey is true.

Jesus has called us all to multiply the mission,

not to keep it to ourselves. Let's live our lives

for Jesus. Anthony, can we? I have a little slide.

Can you guys see it? It says, Satan tries to

limit your praying because he knows your praying

will limit him. So the more you pray, the more

evil and bad things will repel. So we need to

remember that. That is so important that as we

pray and read our Bible, Jesus will continue

to bless us. You have 1 ,440 minutes. How will

you use them? Will you use them to disciple others?

That's something you need to ask yourself. But

I will be praying that every one of you will

invite just one person to church. Maybe next

Sabbath, or the following, or next month, whenever.

Invite one person. Let's fill this church, fill

these pews, because Jesus loves you. Anthony,

can we do one more, please? Now this one, okay,

it's important because Adam and Eve did not think

about the consequences, right? They did not think

about the consequences. The things they did,

the sinning. So now we have to deal with that.

So that's why I put this on, just to remind you

that when you think of Adam and Eve, you think

of this. Because if they had listened to God,

we would not be doing laundry. All right? So

this is so important. I just want to share, people,

you all know the truth. We've all read our Bibles

and we've studied. But the great thing is if

we can study with other people, whether they're

Adventists, Christians, non -Christians, whoever,

let's just read our Bibles and share the gospel.

Thank you so much.
