00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,680
That's the author. The author is light, period.

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:04,400
Wow.

3
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:04,880
Yes.

4
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:11,440
You know, the Bible says He's the indescribable light. He's light, period. And that's what we

5
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:18,480
are connected to within that light, you know, is love. You can't separate the two. We tried to

6
00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:23,280
talk about light separate from love, and the two can never be separated. When I was there with the

7
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:29,440
Father and Jesus, Jesus, the light was coming all for Him, and it was coming into me. It was coming

8
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:35,760
around me. I felt like when people sometimes say, Did He hug you? Everything about Him was hugging me.

9
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:51,520
God promises in Joel 2.28 to pour out His Spirit on all humanity. Welcome to Global Outpouring,

10
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:56,560
where we contend for that promised outpouring, we equip for that outpouring,

11
00:00:56,560 --> 00:01:00,960
so that we may engage in that very outpouring. I'm Philip Buss.

12
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:07,360
And I'm Sharon Buss. Welcome to the podcast today. We are so happy and privileged to have our dear

13
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:12,800
friend, Dean Braxton, with us today. He's the man that we know, and there have been many,

14
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:19,840
but he's the one that we know who has had a visit to heaven because he died. He absolutely died for

15
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:26,000
an hour and 45 minutes, and he had an experience in Heaven that is going to be something that will

16
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:32,240
change your life as you hear him talk. And today we're going to talk about things that he saw

17
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:42,400
regarding light and darkness. Thanks for joining us today. We're glad that you are with us, and we

26
00:02:30,640 --> 00:02:38,080
this in your life. So we have with us today our dear friend, Dean Braxton. And Dean, thank you so,

27
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:43,200
so, so much for being with us today. Well, thank you. It's an honor to be with you and

28
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:50,560
to be able to participate in this global outpouring. Oh, yes. Oh, yes. The Lord is

29
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:56,240
about to pour out His Spirit in an unprecedented way. What happened on the day of Pentecost in the

30
00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:03,360
book of Acts is just a seed form of what God is about to do. Do I have that right? Did you see

31
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:08,880
that in heaven? Oh, yes. Yes. Yes. So a whole lot more details than most people think about

32
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:16,720
in that moment. So, oh, please tell us. Tell us some more. You know, one of the things that I

33
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:22,480
think a lot of times that you read in that moment of second chapter of Acts, when you know that

34
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:28,160
pouring out on people, especially the 120, I believe it is, you know, one of the things that

35
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:34,320
people don't realize that a lot of those descriptions weren't just air or elements,

36
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:41,040
those were really beings that were being sent from that realm down to this realm. And the best way

37
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:47,440
they could describe them is to use things like fire, mighty rushing wind, but the reality of them,

38
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:52,800
they were beings that were being ushered in. It would be like an entourage going before

39
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:58,800
a great event was going to take place. And so, that was really one of the things that I experienced

40
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:03,040
when I was with the Father in Jesus in heaven about that outpouring. And in any outpouring,

41
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:08,480
there's always going to be an entourage, heavenly beings before the outpouring. We may feel the wind,

42
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:15,440
we may see the fire, we may even sense it in our body, but the reality of it, God just sent off,

43
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:22,160
you could say, an army, an army of heavenly beings into that moment. You know, we're trying to

44
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,560
describe that, or even in Acts, they're trying to describe that really all these heavenly beings

45
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:35,120
showing up at one time. That's different than we've imagined. Yeah. Yeah, when you read it now,

46
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:41,680
you'll look at it and you'll think, whoa, this is, this is, and this is, and you'll find parallels

47
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,680
with it in the scripture somewhere else. You know what I mean? And when he said,

48
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:50,480
I'll pour out my spirit, remember he said he'd pour out his spirit. And so, we think, okay,

49
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:55,600
just the Holy Spirit. No, there were a number of things that came along with that, because you've

50
00:04:55,600 --> 00:05:00,560
got to remember, God is going to have an entourage. There's just not going to be God Himself.

51
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:05,600
You know, that would mean Jesus had an entourage. We know that with the whole thing with the garden,

52
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:10,160
whole thing, you know, when he was in the garden. And he said, my father will send, you know,

53
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:17,600
what, 12 legions of angels, which is really 72,000 angels. Wow. And then people don't realize that

54
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:23,200
wherever God goes, there's going to be an entourage with him. You know, it's not going to be by himself.

55
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:29,280
No, you know, the King has an entourage. Even when Jesus comes back, remember it says,

56
00:05:29,280 --> 00:05:33,920
when Jesus comes back, he's going to come back with an entourage. So most of us don't realize

57
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:39,280
all those events that we hear about God showing up, there's an entourage with him. You know,

58
00:05:39,280 --> 00:05:44,000
what do you think about it? I can go one more place. When Jesus was being born, here comes a

59
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:52,000
bunch of angels talking to shepherds. So there is always an entourage of beings. I call them beings.

60
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:59,520
They're being everything God created them to be, you know. And so, they're showing up in the moment

61
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:06,400
that they're supposed to show up in the, when you say the details that they are in that moment. And

62
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:11,120
so what I mean by that, whatever they're supposed to be do, whatever their responsibility is to do,

63
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:16,720
they're doing it at that moment. So on that day of Pentecost, you know, there was an entourage that

64
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:22,720
showed up. It wasn't just what people think, just some wind and some fire and things like that.

65
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:28,640
It was an entourage that showed up on that day. And that's what caused the ruckus throughout the

66
00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:34,560
city, not just the speaking and other languages, our tongues as we call it, but just, you know,

67
00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:42,080
I keep in my mind, I think about when the wise men came into Jerusalem looking for Jesus,

68
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:46,800
didn't they have an entourage with them? They didn't come by them. We say three wise men,

69
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:51,040
but the reality of it is if you really do the study of this morning, three people that showed

70
00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:56,560
up, it was an entourage. It was caused such a stir in the city. I wouldn't God have that same thing

71
00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:02,160
happen when he shows up somewhere. So I get excited about that. So when you ask that question,

72
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:08,320
that opened up that door for me to be able to explain it. Yes. Beautiful. Beautiful. Wow.

73
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:16,160
Wow. That's some more questions here. Well, the question that has been on my mind,

74
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:23,760
as I've been anticipating this interview, wait a minute, before I get onto that, I want to just

75
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:32,400
say something else. We know that you have been involved in a movie project. Yes. And it's called

76
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:39,120
After Death. And it's been produced by Angel Studios, the ones who produced The Chosen

77
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:47,040
and The Sound of Freedom. They made that one. And it's coming up into the theaters October 27th.

78
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:53,680
And you are a part of that. Have you seen the whole movie yourself yet? No, I haven't seen the

79
00:07:53,680 --> 00:08:00,480
whole movie. They're doing a couple of previews, one in Utah, the one in LA. I'm busy those days,

80
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:06,960
so I'm not going to be able to do it. What I found out is I am in that movie. I have a part

81
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:11,600
in that movie. I don't know how big a part or how small a part, but I have a part in the movie,

82
00:08:11,600 --> 00:08:17,840
which is okay with me. My thing is that Jesus is glorified. Yes. And that's the main thing

83
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:26,480
that I want. The movie really is about people, what they call after death, which is kind of ironic

84
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:31,120
to me. One of the people in the movie even said, you're more alive there than you are here. Exactly.

85
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:36,320
You're not dead. You're not dead at all. Right. But to get people's attention, we call it after

86
00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:44,000
death. And so that's what they called it and things like that. It was literally filmed in 2020.

87
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:49,280
Oh, wow. And they went through it. And I think the unique part of it though is they did find

88
00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:54,480
people that had died and didn't go to hell when they went to hell. So you got their story too

89
00:08:54,480 --> 00:09:00,480
in that. Wow. Which I think is really good. So I would encourage it for anybody to go out and see

90
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,720
it, not because I'm in the movie, but because I really believe it's going to open the door for a

91
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:10,320
lot of people to start questioning. There is something after this life on this planet. For

92
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:14,480
me, I was born again, new Jesus Christ, the Lord and savior, and you heard it. I went where Christians

93
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:21,200
are supposed to go. And so majority of the people that I know that are in this movie, they were all

94
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:26,080
Christians. They loved the Lord. And so their experience was one that was good, except for the

95
00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:30,480
people that did know the Lord. And their experience was really something that was bad. Yeah. You know,

96
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:36,800
and so I hope that this opens the eyes of many people to start looking, to start searching,

97
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:42,160
and to search for the right way, not the wrong way. Jesus Christ said, I'm the way, the truth

98
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:46,800
and the life. No one comes to the father except through me. Yeah. And he is the only way. There

99
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:51,280
is no other way. So as they go to the movie, I know my friend, John Burke, which is in the movie,

100
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:58,880
he said later on him and the guy that Don Piper and him and someone else did more of an extensive

101
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:03,920
movement towards Jesus. What I mean by that is the movie kind of like tries to get people to

102
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:09,920
question. And then there's this whole question and answering piece that can come with it,

103
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:14,720
that really is to say, Hey, it's about Jesus. Right. And so I was really excited to hear that

104
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:20,400
when John was telling me about it. Oh, I'm glad to hear that. I'm glad to hear that. Be in prayer,

105
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:26,800
listener, be in prayer for this movie to make a difference in people's lives, that God will plow

106
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:32,320
the hearts of the people that are going to attend this movie and cause them to come to the movie

107
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:38,560
that they didn't even intend to go and see. It's important for people to see this and for their

108
00:10:38,560 --> 00:10:43,600
hearts to be prepared. I think that's a really important prayer request that I want to encourage

109
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:50,240
our listeners to pray into for this movie. It comes out October 27th. So regarding my first

110
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:59,440
question, you said something about you're more alive there than you were here on the planet.

111
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:07,840
And my question is, I want to give you the opportunity to describe what you saw based on

112
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:14,240
a scripture. So many times we're asking you questions about what was it like or what did you

113
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:21,760
see? Then we might say, well, what's the scripture for backing that up? But I want to give you a

114
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:29,440
scripture to tell us what you saw that will help us to understand the scripture better. Because

115
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:36,400
I've been thinking more recently, I think it was Bruce Allen that said, we read the Bible to get

116
00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:45,520
to know the author. And so I really want us to zoom in on you met the father and Jesus in heaven.

117
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:51,840
And he showed you lots and lots and lots of things and you're not even going to tell anything until

118
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:58,880
you get a question about it. So I want to give you a scripture so that you can say,

119
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:06,080
here's what I saw about this scripture. So the first one that I want to give you is John 1, 4,

120
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:14,720
and 5. In him was life and the life was the light of men. That's verse four. What did you see in

121
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:21,520
heaven about Jesus that helps us understand that verse? In him was life and the life was the light

122
00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:30,240
of men. Well, you know, one of the things that I saw in him, okay, to really understand that life

123
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:36,000
that he's talking about, it has to be mingled with love and not love according to human love.

124
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:41,360
Okay, this is that agape love we always talk about, but it's even deeper than that. I think

125
00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:45,760
we're very short in trying to even explain agape love. We may go through 1 Corinthians,

126
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:52,400
the 13th chapter and say, hey, this is agape, but I see that as we're coming way short. I believe

127
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:57,680
we can really experience it more than we can explain it. And when it talks about that life

128
00:12:57,680 --> 00:13:04,000
that was in him, you know, which is our life, it's talking about God Almighty, period, himself.

129
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:09,120
That God is infinite. There is no beginning and there is no end. And if you think that that's what

130
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:14,800
resides on the inside of us, along with what resided on the inside of Jesus because of what he did,

131
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:20,560
he became a human being. You know, God Almighty became a human being. And he died on a cross

132
00:13:20,560 --> 00:13:25,280
and paid the price for everybody on the planet. It didn't matter who they are, what they've done.

133
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:31,120
It didn't matter if it was before he did that or after that he paid the price, period. You know,

134
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:36,000
the bottom line is to accept what he did. That's the biggest thing. Before him, there were people

135
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:41,680
that accepted that this was going to happen. And they got, what do you say, brought into the fold

136
00:13:41,680 --> 00:13:46,400
because they accepted it. They were anticipating that Jesus Christ was going to die on that cross.

137
00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:50,880
And they were going to...so that's life for them. And then there's us afterwards. Oh boy,

138
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:57,280
this is good news. There's us afterwards that we get the opportunity now to accept what he did.

139
00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:02,160
That's the life he's talking about. That's the love he's talking about. You know, really,

140
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:10,000
there's no way to, we say, pinpoint it to just one incident. I like what you said that Bruce

141
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:16,000
Eiland said, you get to know the author. That's the author. The author is light, period.

142
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:16,720
Wow.

143
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:17,120
Yes.

144
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:23,920
You know, the Bible said he's the indescribable light. He's light, period. And that's what we are

145
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:31,360
connected to within that light, you know, is love. You can't separate the two. We try to talk about

146
00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:35,920
light separate from love, and the two can never be separated. When I was there with the Father

147
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:41,680
in Jesus, Jesus, the light was coming off for him, and it was coming into me. It was coming

148
00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:48,400
around me. I felt like when people sometimes say, did he hug you? Everything about him was hugging me.

149
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:55,280
I went into the light. I was in him, and he was in me. I came to understand that to the fullness,

150
00:14:55,280 --> 00:15:01,120
because most of us don't realize who resides on the inside of us. You know,

151
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:06,560
do we think of it just a little? No, he resides within us. When I say that, Sharon, I'm not just

152
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:12,160
talking about one little part of your heart. He's in your fingers. He's in your toes. He's in your

153
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:20,080
eyes. He's everywhere within your body. That's what light does. It fills up a area. It doesn't just,

154
00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:24,320
you know, go in one little corner. I have light shining on me right now. They're shining on the

155
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:29,280
wall and back of me. They're filling up the room. Think about it. Oh, boy, I get excited about just

156
00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:35,920
thinking about it. Think about that light and the love filling us to the fullness. Now, we have the

157
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:41,600
power because he's given us the power to cut it off. I can go over here and cut off one of these

158
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:46,080
lights right now, and I can cut off a light over there, and it can be dark. You know, doesn't mean

159
00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:52,640
we're cutting him out. We're cutting the light inside of us out. You know, one of the things that

160
00:15:52,640 --> 00:16:00,080
I'll share something, one of the things when I travel, I can literally now look at people and

161
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:08,000
see light in them and see almost by the brightness of the light through their spirit of where they're

162
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:13,840
at, you know, and there's some dark ones out there, very, very dark ones. But then there's some that

163
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:20,960
are eye bluish color or yellowish color. They're dimmer than they should be. Let's put it that way

164
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:26,720
because they dim the light that was in them, you know, which always tells me they probably had some

165
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:31,760
type of connection with Jesus at some time in their life, and now they're letting the light dim out.

166
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:35,840
You know, like it's getting more dimmer and dimmer and dimmer. They're not saving energy.

167
00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:42,880
It is one of those lights. You know, it's literally them because of moving away from Jesus.

168
00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:48,560
He's the power of that light. So, remember, when you talk about their scriptures more than just

169
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:54,160
light like we know, it's love. And someone said, well, it's truth. Yeah, truth and love,

170
00:16:54,160 --> 00:17:00,400
light comes together. I remember, Diane, I remember I described it this way in the book,

171
00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:01,840
Deep Worship in Heaven.

172
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:02,880
I love that book.

173
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:09,040
That when he spoke to me, all of that was coming toward me. It came to me as a light,

174
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:13,680
you know, even when he told me, no, it's not your time, go back, it came to me as a light.

175
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:19,440
And it's hard to describe in this realm, but the closest I can get, it would be like a beam of

176
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:25,600
light just coming directly toward you, not a small beam, a huge beam of light. And I remember,

177
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:30,800
it looked like it was going to engulf me. I was going to be surrounded by this light, and yet it

178
00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:36,640
came inside of me. And when it came inside of me, the first thing I felt, the first thing I

179
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:41,840
experienced when that light came inside of me was this overwhelming, just love for me.

180
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:48,000
That I'm so loved and I don't care what anybody says, I am loved, period. That's the first

181
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:54,960
feeling I could describe. The next feeling that I came was, I need to obey the truth. I need to

182
00:17:54,960 --> 00:18:03,520
obey the truth, not debate it, not have an option with it, but obey the truth. And then the next

183
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:12,320
thing that came was, I was so comfort. You could say peace, but it was past peace. It's that peace

184
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:17,280
past understanding that we read about in Philippians, the fourth chapter. But it didn't

185
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:23,200
engulf me from the outside, it engulfed me from the inside out. And I know I shine brighter because

186
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:31,200
of it. I know that. I know because of that going in through Him to me, that I shine brighter. And

187
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:36,000
that I shine brighter. And what He said, which brought that light was, no, it's not your time,

188
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:41,600
go back. That's what He said to me. And that's not the kind of message you wanted to hear.

189
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:47,600
That's not the kind of message I want to hear. But the way it was delivered and the way it hit me

190
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:52,800
was like, the closer I could come is, I used to be in the military, I've said this before,

191
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:59,920
I knew how to take orders. But the orders I was taking wasn't a order like, oh my God, why did

192
00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:06,960
He do that? It was more like, why wouldn't I do this for Him? He did all of this for me. And I was

193
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:13,680
just so grateful to be able to be chosen by Him to be able to do what I was told. Because I know what

194
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:19,040
I felt like He was saying, I need you there more than I need you here. And I felt like I was being

195
00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:24,000
honored by Him. And that all came through that light. So when He talked about the light that

196
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:29,840
was in Him and the light that's in us, those are the elements that I can talk about with English.

197
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:39,920
I love this. I really believe this is the light shining so much out of us that even when we go

198
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:46,560
into a place, the darkness sees it. And when the darkness sees it, it has to flee. And I just

199
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:51,440
believe that they just know that they know that they know. Because darkness and light cannot

200
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:59,600
ring in the same area. It just can't. So I don't see it happening, ringing in the same area.

201
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:04,720
Maybe if the light goes dim, then you have darkness. But that's what that scripture really

202
00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:11,520
was downloaded inside of me. And that's a lot. Yes, it is. I have a question on the light.

203
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:17,200
It's like the amount of light that's in you. It's like we hear believers, they'll walk in,

204
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:24,080
and somebody will react. And those that will react out of the love they'll feel. And there's

205
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:29,360
those that are really demon possessed, will maybe go, you know, has a different reaction.

206
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:36,480
But is it the degree of your light, the degree that the reactions that you get from the other side?

207
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:41,280
Does that make sense? Yeah, that makes sense. A great deal. You still have to be, I call it plugged

208
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:49,120
in to the Lord. My light can go dim if I'm not plugged into Him. Let me get away from the things

209
00:20:49,120 --> 00:20:53,680
that plug me in. There are certain things that I do. Praying is one of them. Reading the Word of

210
00:20:53,680 --> 00:21:01,520
God is one of them. Making sure things don't go into my head to corrupt things. Because you can

211
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:06,160
have all that light coming in, then you have this corruption coming in. And it's trying to put out

212
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:11,680
the light. And so you got a battle going on in that way. So there's a number of things that, yes,

213
00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:17,200
I'm with you Phil on that because the bottom line is that it wasn't what goes into a man that

214
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:24,800
defiles a man, but what comes out. And so I'm making sure what comes in is pure. So what comes

215
00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:29,760
out is pure. Amen. The old days, they called it being holy. The new days.

216
00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:37,520
Yeah. You know, so I hope that answered your question. I got excited about it. When you asked

217
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,000
that question, oh boy, that was so cool. That was really good.

218
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:44,960
Let me just, I wanted to clarify a little bit. So the scripture says in Him was life.

219
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:46,240
Yes.

220
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,800
And the life was the light of men.

221
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:49,200
Yes.

222
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:56,160
So you made it very clear that light and love are the same thing. So are light and love and life

223
00:21:56,160 --> 00:22:02,640
all the same thing? Yeah. You know, when we talk about life a lot of times, we just think things

224
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:10,480
are alive, but they cannot be alive without the light and the love. Okay? We say life, but you're

225
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:17,280
not alive unless you have the love. You know, one of the things I came to understand is that true

226
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:23,040
death is separation from God. You separate from God, you're dead. You know, even Ephesians tells

227
00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:27,680
us that one time we were in that way, that we were separated from God and we're really dead.

228
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:33,520
Even though we may say we're alive, but in the spiritual realm, you're dead. And what's

229
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:38,800
more eternal? It's not the temporal realm that's eternal. It's the spiritual realm that's eternal.

230
00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:44,320
So in reality, we can't change it because we're so used to it. But the reality of it is

231
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:51,200
if you don't have the light, you don't have life. And life is literally love. And if you don't have

232
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:56,880
love, you're dead. And where do you get true love? Now we can get human love, but human love is

233
00:22:56,880 --> 00:23:02,960
conditional. You've got to have the pure love, which is unconditional, you know? And so the reality

234
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:07,040
of, because God's going to love you whether you accept Him or not, people don't realize that.

235
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,800
He's not going to love you because you accept Him. He's going to love you because He said,

236
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:16,400
for God so loved the world. You know what I mean? He loved us even before He sent His Son down on

237
00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:22,480
the planet to die for us. Now that's a, what do you say, an example of His love, but He loved us

238
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:29,280
beforehand. And love is to give us life. But you know, we have to be the people that choose that

239
00:23:29,280 --> 00:23:37,040
life. And I started out talking about life because to me, you can't separate it. There's no separation

240
00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:42,400
in heaven of these things. Here on the planet, we separate, but there there's none. Even John,

241
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:46,960
when he's writing that, if you think about it, it's almost like he's talking about one subject,

242
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:50,000
then he comes around and talks about another subject, then he goes back and talks about the

243
00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:54,880
other subject, because he's trying to get you to understand. But in reality, I know he's saying

244
00:23:54,880 --> 00:24:01,600
they're all together. For him to even try to separate it is like, oh, how do I do this? It

245
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:07,760
sounds like double talk, but in reality, he's trying to separate something that's not separated.

246
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:17,760
Amen. Amen. So when you got to heaven, even before you met the Father in Jesus, did you see like,

247
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:23,680
like I've heard people describe it, that even the plants are full of life and light and love.

248
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:24,160
Yes.

249
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:29,040
Everything. Everything is exuding light. It's exuding love. It's exuding life,

250
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:30,560
because there's no such thing as death there.

251
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:36,000
Yes. There's no darkness there either. And that was the thing that really got me. I remember

252
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:40,880
coming back and thinking to myself, oh, I know why there's no darkness in heaven. It's because

253
00:24:40,880 --> 00:24:46,160
Jesus and the Father light up everything. They're in everything. And so, when you're bright and

254
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:51,600
you're shiny, there's no way, like I'm, you know, sitting at His desk right now, and underneath it

255
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:55,520
is darkness. Well, if this desk was in heaven, there's no way there would be darkness there,

256
00:24:55,520 --> 00:25:00,080
because there would be light shining after. So there's no darkness anywhere. There's no dark

257
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:06,080
anywhere. Nothing's dark in heaven. I think, and I maybe have said this before to you,

258
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:12,080
you remember Tiffany that did the stained glass windows that you see in churches a lot, you know?

259
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:17,760
I think the guy was named Tiffany. I really think he had a vision or something of the light,

260
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:23,440
and the best way he could say that the light shining out of, well, the Father shining out of

261
00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:28,880
things was to have those lights and they shine when the light comes from the sun or something.

262
00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:33,520
That's the best way to describe. That's what's happening there. There's no darkness at all.

263
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:41,040
Yeah. Yeah. You know, when we were camping recently, I was enjoying the early morning

264
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:46,480
dew, the sunshine on the dew, and all these little dew drops. And I was thinking to ask you,

265
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:52,800
I was thinking to ask you, was this God's way of giving us just the slightest hint

266
00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:58,800
of what it's like in heaven where everything is shining? Yes, it would be that way. And if you

267
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:03,120
think about the different colors that the dew would have, because, you know, it's being a prison,

268
00:26:03,120 --> 00:26:07,280
so you wouldn't have just one white light coming through there. You have all the rainbow colors

269
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:11,920
coming through there, plus colors we don't see that are coming through there also. So yes,

270
00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:17,280
you know, I always look at those times, Sharon, and I said it in the book, The Worship in Heaven.

271
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:25,280
That's the time when the sun comes up, even just before it's getting ready, and all of life

272
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:31,840
is given praise to God. I really believe in those morning hours that everything that is on the

273
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:38,640
planet gets an opportunity to give God praise at that moment, even the dew. You know, we won't look

274
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:46,080
at the dew as being alive, but the dew in the sense of what it does and how it vibrates me,

275
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:51,760
how it vibrates maybe, you know, and whatever it's doing, it's giving praise to God. Everything at

276
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:56,800
that moment, literally, and I used to remember when I first came out of the hospital, I used to

277
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:03,120
wake up early to meet that day almost, I did it for about a month and a half. You know, every

278
00:27:03,120 --> 00:27:08,720
morning I would wake up just to be able to be with all of creation to tell our Father how much we

279
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:14,560
love Him, because I really believe that's what was going on at that moment. As the sun was coming up

280
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:20,080
over the horizon. Yeah, beautiful. And it's the light, you know, everything gets bright because

281
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:26,480
of that, you know, and that's just the sun. Think about, you know, the Holy Spirit, think about the

282
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:32,480
sun, Essoian, and think about the Father. Wow, I get excited just thinking about that. Amen.

283
00:27:33,120 --> 00:27:40,080
Amen. You know, I'm remembering this contrast of light and darkness. I'm remembering the first

284
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:45,040
time that we had a chance to have a conversation with you, and we were out in a parking lot in the

285
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:50,640
hot sun, and Philip is holding a box of books for an hour before he put it down, and we talked for

286
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:59,760
another hour. You mentioned something about how you dislike darkness. Yes, yes. Can you elaborate

287
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:05,600
on that for us? Well, I came to understand when I was there with the Father and Jesus, and when it

288
00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:10,080
came to light, like I said, everything was lit up. I came to understand we were created to be in

289
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:15,120
light. We were never created to be in darkness. You know, darkness is temporal, and light is

290
00:28:15,120 --> 00:28:20,800
eternal. And so I came to understand the things that we should, what do you say, honor are the

291
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:26,160
eternal things over the temporal things. And so I know that we look at the universe and we look at

292
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:31,120
our stars and all those types of things, but the reality of it is all that's going to pass away.

293
00:28:31,120 --> 00:28:36,640
Everything's going to pass away that's in dark. Everything is going to be in light. Now, what we

294
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:42,560
have a hard time with is that, you know, the planets we see, we see them in darkness, but they

295
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:50,080
were really created for light. Yes. You know, and so for us to, even the moon, let's say we see the

296
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:56,400
moon in the daytime. Even though it's in the daytime, it's odd to us because we're used to

297
00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:03,040
seeing it at night. But the moon really, it was created, all of the planets were created for light

298
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:07,520
and there's going to come that time when there is not going to be darkness. You know, it's said in

299
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:13,360
Revelation 22, it says that, you know, the father and the son light up everything and that day is

300
00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:21,040
going to come. But we were created for light. And I came back with a distaste for dark period, the

301
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:27,440
night, still do, still don't like it. You know what I mean? And I almost feel like it's a waste of time,

302
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:36,000
darkness. Well, I remember when you were here one time, we were having a conversation about how

303
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:43,760
everything began. Yes. And how Lucifer, who was the son of the morning and the one-third of all the

304
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:49,600
beings that he deceived into coming with you. Correct. I asked you a question and I think I

305
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:58,880
understood you to say that darkness became when God took the light out of them. Yes. That there

306
00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:04,080
was no darkness before that. There was none. And darkness, even in the Bible, we go through it,

307
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:08,400
we find out darkness represents a whole bunch of things on the negative side. Yeah, they're all

308
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:13,200
negative. Not positive, but on the negative side, you know. Though I walk through the valley of

309
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:17,520
death, you know, that really is darkness, you know, that word can be translated to darkness.

310
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:24,400
The bottom line is that darkness was really a containing field for the demonic realm,

311
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:30,080
you know, those that had rebelled against the father, you know. And so it's almost like a

312
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:36,640
prison. And Jude, it says that, and then also, I believe in 2 Peter, it says that, you know,

313
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:42,000
the chains, that were chains being bound up. And that's what really took place at that time,

314
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:49,200
you know. And so darkness, you know, is not, what do you say, represent the good. It represents

315
00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:53,200
a darkness period. It represents badness. And there's a number of scriptures throughout the

316
00:30:53,200 --> 00:31:00,400
Bible that point that out. And I just came to really dislike it. We were not created, you know,

317
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:05,040
to know we were really created for light, not hot sun and burning up and sweating.

318
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:12,800
Right, right. But to know we were really created for light, you know, and it's really something,

319
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:18,160
you know, most bad things are done, except, you know, I should say most bad things used to be done

320
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:25,760
in the dark. Now, you know, because people are getting more profound with evilness, they do

321
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:31,920
dark things in the daytime, you know what I mean? Those types of things. Yes. But reality of it is,

322
00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:38,800
and that just means, again, darkness is used as the opposite, really, it's evil, which is good.

323
00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:44,240
And that's what they use the opposite of it is. So in the sense of darkness, I don't like it. I

324
00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:48,640
don't like the night. I don't like the thing. I know my friends, they love the universe. They

325
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:53,760
get their telescopes out. They love, they would look at the stars and everything like that.

326
00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:57,520
And they're going to get that joy in heaven. It's just going to come a different way.

327
00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:02,720
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. I was looking at something just recently. They were showing

328
00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:08,400
this black hole and how it had this spiral in it with light was in it. I don't know if you've seen

329
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:13,600
that or not. That was really cool. And they were coming up, the scientists were coming up and

330
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:18,640
saying, well, we always figured those black holes were twirling. We just didn't have the evidence of

331
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:23,520
it. And I don't know if the black hole was twirling or just the light inside of it was twirling, but

332
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:29,120
something was going on inside of this black hole that they saw. And I don't know if you guys can

333
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:34,320
look it up or anybody, but I thought it was really cool. And in fact, the way it was, it was there

334
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:39,680
was like a pillar going up like this of light. And then there was a swirl going like that. And I thought,

335
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:45,040
whoa, that is something. You know, it just sounds like the kind of thing God would do.

336
00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:52,240
Yes, it does. I really, I don't know what the sign is, to be honest with you. It might be one of those

337
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:57,680
wonders he's talking about. There would be in the sky that we'll see, but I know it was a sign.

338
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:01,920
You know, I said, Lord, this is a sign. You're doing something here. Someone's going to come out

339
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:07,760
and tell us what the sign is all about. So yeah, I'm reminded. I don't know which way to go. I've got

340
00:33:08,880 --> 00:33:16,480
two things on the same subject that we're talking about. Let's just go to Genesis 1. Yes. First of

341
00:33:16,480 --> 00:33:23,120
all, on the first day, God said, let there be light. Okay. Correct. He said the light was good.

342
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:28,320
He did not say the dark was good. That's right. He didn't say the night was good. He said, he didn't

343
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:33,440
say the day was good. He said the light was good. He saw the light that it was good. Do you have any

344
00:33:33,440 --> 00:33:41,200
thoughts on that? You know, again, that darkness I know came about because it was a really was a sale

345
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:46,880
for the demonic realm. And so it was to hold them in. So I could understand what everything there

346
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:52,000
would be bad. It would be not good at all. And then the light, the thing that I love about that,

347
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:59,440
that most people don't realize is I see it where God came and he incorporates himself, his light

348
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:04,480
around this planet to make it for the first four days. We don't have the sun and the moon coming

349
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:11,280
out until the fourth day. So he literally, the earth was literally made inside of light before the

350
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:17,600
sun and the moon came. And I think people don't realize that he engulfed the earth and turned

351
00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:25,360
what was in chaos, according to what the scriptures say, into perfection. Because it was perfected.

352
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:31,680
This planet was perfected until Adam, you know, messed up and let sin come into it, which is death,

353
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:38,560
you know, and to the planet. And so, but at that moment, it was perfection. I was in a place where

354
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:43,760
perfection was. I know what it looks like. I don't have to try to imagine what it looks like. I know

355
00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:48,720
exactly what it looks like. And there's nothing dying. There's nothing. There's no death. It's

356
00:34:48,720 --> 00:34:53,280
so hard to explain that to people on the planet, because even if I say it looks like the earth,

357
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:57,280
they go out and you're not even coming close because we have so much death happening. And

358
00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:01,760
I don't mean in a sense of just people dying. I'm talking about plants dying, you know what I mean?

359
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:08,240
Deterioration. None of that is there. What does it look like? And so, saying that to you, God

360
00:35:08,240 --> 00:35:14,800
literally took this chaotic world, made it a perfect world. And, you know, for how long,

361
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:22,400
I don't know. I can tell you in the Bible, it's to the third chapter. But however long it was,

362
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:28,560
it was perfect. There was nothing wrong with the planet. And it's hard for us to even grasp that

363
00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:32,720
there was that one time this planet didn't have nothing wrong. The good thing about it,

364
00:35:32,720 --> 00:35:38,480
it's going to go back to being that way. Amen. You know, God's, we call it a new planet and a new

365
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:44,320
heaven, but God is going to go back and do some things to make this planet back to what it was

366
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:48,960
originally created for. Is that good news or is that good news? Yes, amen. Wonderful news.

367
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:56,400
That's wonderful. And so, in that time frame when he called the darkness bad, it was bad. It was bad.

368
00:35:56,400 --> 00:36:01,680
It was, you know, even when I left my body to go to be with the Father in Jesus, and I went through

369
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:07,680
that dark area I've told many people about, and I remember literally it was filled with demonic

370
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:11,840
ground, the demons and things like that. You know, the good thing about it, I knew they couldn't

371
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:17,040
touch me. There's nothing they could do. There's nothing they could do. They could do nothing there.

372
00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:21,200
They could do nothing here. I knew that. You know, that's what it's like. The other thing

373
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:26,720
that really got me is I listened, I could hear them talking about their plans and what they did

374
00:36:26,720 --> 00:36:32,240
and how they did things. It was interesting. You know, we call it deception, but they don't

375
00:36:32,240 --> 00:36:37,360
think they're deceived. They think they have the truth. So, you know, a lot of times when you talk

376
00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:42,400
to somebody that's deceived, you think, well, I can reason them into something. Well, you can't

377
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:47,760
reason somebody into something that they believe is the reason already. You know, it's, you know,

378
00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:52,640
only one that could really get through that is Jesus Christ. He did it with Paul. So, the reality

379
00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:57,360
of it, I say to people, when I went through there, that whole place was holding so many

380
00:36:57,360 --> 00:37:03,200
demonic beings. It was, there was a lot of them. Some of them were trapped there. They could not,

381
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:10,320
they could not go back. And others were going back and forth, back and forth. Now, I always say that

382
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:14,480
there was a lot, but you got to remember greater is He that's in us than He that's in the world.

383
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:20,160
We got more with us than we got against us. I mean, all kinds of scriptures tell us that.

384
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:24,720
So, it doesn't matter how many of those demonic beings are there, we got more.

385
00:37:24,720 --> 00:37:26,000
AMEN.

386
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:33,440
And not a little bit more, because only one third of that heavenly realm left. So, we got the others.

387
00:37:33,440 --> 00:37:35,680
Is that good news? Is that good news?

388
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,080
And our Father's probably still creating.

389
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:44,080
DR. BELLAMY. At this point, when I was there, what we would call creation, it was mainly us

390
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:49,600
on the planet. It wasn't so much that the heavenly beings were being created. It was us on the planet.

391
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:56,560
Because everybody there had been, had chose to be there. And I knew that. You know, I was plugged

392
00:37:56,560 --> 00:38:00,960
into everything and everything. Everything there had already chosen to be there. So, if he had

393
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:06,640
created somebody, they had not had that choice of being here or going with Satan. So, they were

394
00:38:06,640 --> 00:38:13,440
there. But us here, us on the planet, we're being created all the time, and we're given that choice

395
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:20,240
still, to be able to choose whether to be with Jesus or not. Because that choice is a foundation

396
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:26,320
for that place there. And I say that because that's the love. You know, that's true love.

397
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:31,440
God loves us so much that He gave us the ability to choose or not choose. Is that good news?

398
00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:32,400
AMEN. Yeah, it's beautiful.

399
00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:38,400
DR. BELLAMY. I think people don't realize how powerful that is. But there, there was no one

400
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:43,760
else. I mean, when you get there, you'll see. We could go a little bit farther with us and our

401
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:50,320
responsibility. You know, we're not stuck there. You know, most people don't realize that. You know,

402
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:54,400
most people think, oh, you go to heaven, you're stuck there. You got to stay there. No, God will

403
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:59,680
still use us in that spiritual realm, even on the planet. You know, that old story of,

404
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:06,160
of it's a wonderful life, you know, in here. And I forget Henry or whatever his name is,

405
00:39:06,160 --> 00:39:11,040
the angel comes and helps out the guy, you know, that type of thing. I know it's a far-fetched

406
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:16,640
story. People think about it. But in reality, He will send us down to the planet to do a lot of

407
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:21,600
stuff. We become those heavenly beings a lot of times that people are thinking about in more ways

408
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:27,280
than none. It's like Elijah and Moses when they came and talked to Jesus, the Mount of, what we

409
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:32,000
call the Mount of Transfiguration. If you really think about it, they were human beings at one time

410
00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:36,560
that were on this planet that went to be with the Father and Jesus. Some people say go to paradise,

411
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:41,040
but in reality, paradise means paradise. It means paradise. You know what I mean?

412
00:39:42,240 --> 00:39:48,560
It means heaven, really. But the reality of it is, and then they were sent back down to talk to

413
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:53,680
Jesus and give Him information. And at that time, they were messengers. And if they were messengers,

414
00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:59,520
they were angels. And so because the word angel means messenger. And so that's hard for us to

415
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:05,440
grasp sometimes because of our traditional thinking that we have. But in reality, we're still being

416
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:11,200
used very strongly on the planet in many ways. And people don't like to say that because they'll say,

417
00:40:11,200 --> 00:40:15,760
ah, you're talking to the dead. You don't know that's a DC. And they're more alive there,

418
00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:21,440
like I said earlier, than they are here on the planet. So you get there and you find out that

419
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:28,400
you can be reassigned back to the planet to do something on this planet. You know what the

420
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:33,280
reasons I say that, you're more alive there than here, there's no limits to you. Here on the planet,

421
00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:39,760
we're so limited because of this flesh. You know what I mean? It binds us in so much. And then

422
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:45,920
there's the laws of physics on this planet that we are bound to. But there, you're not bound to

423
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:51,840
those parameters any longer. So you get to experience life the way you're supposed to experience it

424
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:56,960
without the boundaries. And so that's one of the reasons I say that. So when you get there,

425
00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:02,240
God can use you in mighty ways that you never thought you could be used on the planet because

426
00:41:02,240 --> 00:41:07,840
of the limitations you have here with your own thinking. And that's number one, your own thinking

427
00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:13,360
is the biggest thing that gets you on the planet is your own thinking. But the reality of it is that

428
00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:19,680
you are there freer to do, freer, hear what the word said, freer to do exactly what God wants you

429
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:25,760
to do with all the abilities that you have that are limited on the planet here. You know, would you

430
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:30,480
have Bruce Allen there and you know, he had that translation that he's talking about. Well, in

431
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:36,240
heaven, people are translated all the time. No one has to be taught to. Right. We're just trying to

432
00:41:36,240 --> 00:41:41,600
do on earth as it is in heaven. Yeah. And the bottom line is here on the planet, we try to

433
00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:46,080
get there, we try to learn how to do it and those type of things. But there you're not even no one

434
00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:50,960
says this is school over here, how to translate, you just go. I'm not saying anything against Bruce

435
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:56,080
doing it on the planet because I believe that you can have it done. I know, I know it's happened to

436
00:41:56,080 --> 00:42:01,760
me at least twice where I was moved from one area to another area so quickly. And there's no way I

437
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:06,800
could be in both of those areas at that time. So you know, that's happened to me before. So I know

438
00:42:06,800 --> 00:42:12,080
it's reality, it happens, you know, but the reality of it is there. No one's teaching you that you just

439
00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:17,040
do it. Why? Because you already can do it. It's already part of you, but most of us don't realize

440
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:21,840
it's a part of us. There's a ton of things that are a part of us, but we don't realize it because

441
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:27,440
then we fight with our own thinking process here. So in saying that to you, that's why I say you're

442
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:32,480
more alive there than you're more alive here, you know, but the darkness is evil. I'm telling you

443
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:38,880
right now, it's evil and just the way it is. But we can shine so bright in the darkness that

444
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:44,640
evil has to leave, you know, and I found that out, you know, just by having this experience.

445
00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:51,120
Amen. Well, you guys are getting me really talking about some things I never.

446
00:42:51,920 --> 00:42:56,240
Good, good. I got another one for you. And I know we're going on a little bit long, but I

447
00:42:56,240 --> 00:43:03,920
I want to I want to go back to John one and take verse five where we started out with in him was

448
00:43:03,920 --> 00:43:09,040
light and the light was the light of men. Verse five says, and the light shines in darkness and

449
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:15,040
the darkness comprehended it not. And in the Young's literal translation, it says the darkness

450
00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:20,480
perceived it not. The NIV says the light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome

451
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:25,200
it. The new living says that the light shines in the darkness and the darkness can never extinguish

452
00:43:25,200 --> 00:43:31,440
it. The New American Standard says the darkness did not grasp it. Legacy Standard Bible says the

453
00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:37,920
darkness did not overtake it. Amplified says the darkness did not understand or overpower it or

454
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:44,800
appropriated or absorb it and is and is unreceptive to it. Give us your perspective.

455
00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:50,560
I can give you what what Jesus was talking about it that what he was telling me would

456
00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:55,920
refer to as really referring to the Jewish people because they were the only ones at that time that

457
00:43:55,920 --> 00:44:02,400
had the light that they thought they had. You know, the rest of the of the world really didn't

458
00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:10,080
know that it was in darkness. But the Jewish people, because of the laws, we know that

459
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:16,560
at least it was right and was wrong according to God's criteria. And so one was really the light

460
00:44:16,560 --> 00:44:21,920
and one was really the darkness. And so they had moved more into the darkness that when the light

461
00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:27,760
showed up, they couldn't even comprehend the light that they were supposed to know. Wow. So that's

462
00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:33,840
what was going on in that moment. Now, after that, the light spread and people started grasping it.

463
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:39,040
Even the the apostles had a hard time with the light. We know that, and especially one of them,

464
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:45,040
because he betrayed them. But the reality of it is that that that light was really put into that

465
00:44:45,040 --> 00:44:50,240
place first. As we know, Jesus said, I came for the children first, the children of Israel first,

466
00:44:50,240 --> 00:44:55,280
and then to go out. But the reality of it is they couldn't comprehend what was happening.

467
00:44:55,280 --> 00:45:00,160
You know, that's what was going on there. So that's what he was talking about. John was really,

468
00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:06,800
really emphasizing is you guys had the light. It'd be like today. I see it all the time, even with us

469
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:12,800
that we call Gentiles. I see it where something new that God is doing and we can't comprehend it

470
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:18,560
because we've gotten stuck into our traditions and our religion. And so whether we realize it

471
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:23,840
or not, our religion and our traditions are dark. You know, what happens with religion

472
00:45:23,840 --> 00:45:29,200
and traditions is they don't have life in them, like we talked about earlier. So they're not always

473
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:36,080
growing, you know, and God's not a still God, you know, we say he's the same today,

474
00:45:36,720 --> 00:45:41,600
you know, yesterday and tomorrow. But the reality of it, it's just talking about how he approaches

475
00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:46,160
things, but God is a God of life. Even heaven is expanding. I always tell people, they say,

476
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:50,880
what is it expanding in? I don't know. I can't tell you that. But I can tell you God is God of

477
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:56,480
life. So life is going to expand everything I see on the planet. If we were to take this building on

478
00:45:56,480 --> 00:46:02,240
me and not do anything, the bushes and everything will overwhelm this place because it's life.

479
00:46:02,240 --> 00:46:09,600
And so that's what you got going on there. So religion, our traditions sometimes stagnate

480
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:14,960
life, kills it really. It's like a, what do you call it, a pool of water. If it doesn't have

481
00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:20,800
something flowing into it, it's to be very, you know, first of all, it's undrinkable, number one,

482
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:25,600
and you know, so it's not going to, and it can kill, number two, if you think about that.

483
00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:31,600
But the reality of it is you don't have that flow or that flow of life coming into it from a

484
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:37,360
fresh spring or something down, you know, earlier. And so, you know, that's what was going on. And

485
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:42,000
when he was talking about that, the Jewish people at the time were supposed to be the light bearers.

486
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:47,280
They were supposed to take the light of God and share it with all the other nations. And they

487
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:52,640
got into their traditions, they got into their religion, and all of a sudden they stagnated

488
00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:59,040
and became dark, you know? And here comes the light coming on the planet and they couldn't

489
00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:04,000
comprehend it. You know, they couldn't, you know that Sharon and Phil, you see it all the time.

490
00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:09,040
God is doing some wonder, you know, holy laughter. Remember when holy laughter was going out and

491
00:47:09,040 --> 00:47:13,520
everybody thought, oh, this is really of the devil and everything like that. And yet the scriptures

492
00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:18,480
talk about it and the joy of the Lord and how you're going to laugh and everything like that.

493
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:22,960
And even talks about how you're going to have some uncontrollable life because of the joy of the Lord.

494
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:27,440
You know, but people took that and they couldn't see it as light. They saw it as darkness because

495
00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:33,040
of their traditions and their beliefs. And they couldn't see it. Even today, you know, you can

496
00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:37,760
come to some people and give them the facts about something, but their traditions and their

497
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:44,960
religion says, no, I have a person in my life that every time something goes up, she says to me,

498
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:49,840
we're Baptist, we don't believe that. We're Baptist, we don't believe that. You know what it'd be?

499
00:47:49,840 --> 00:47:54,000
She doesn't say, we don't believe it because it's not in the Bible. She says, we're Baptist,

500
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:58,880
we don't believe that. Do you understand what I'm talking about? And so that's the darkness,

501
00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:04,560
if you think about it, that's darkness. There's no life in that. And so if light shows up because

502
00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:09,360
it doesn't meet the Baptist requirements, and I'm not getting on Baptist, I'm just telling this one

503
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:15,040
person says this, you know, she can't even see the light. She cannot see the light because it doesn't

504
00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:19,760
meet the Baptist requirements, you know? And so I don't want anybody to get on me and say,

505
00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:24,000
Ding, you're talking bad about Baptist. It doesn't matter. It could be charismatic people,

506
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:28,320
you know, it could be Pentecostals out there. It could be anybody out there when they get into

507
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:35,280
their traditions and their religion, belief system, and they don't care. They just don't care.

508
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:40,320
And then here comes the light and the light comes along and they're having a hard time with the

509
00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:45,840
light. I see it all the time. And you know what the greatest thing about it is? Me and you could

510
00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:51,840
go somewhere where they're supposed to be dark. You know, like I was in Switzerland and Finland,

511
00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:57,520
and it's supposed to be pretty non-religious, you know what I mean? In the sense that, you know,

512
00:48:57,520 --> 00:49:01,280
the state church is the Lutheran church and I'm not getting on Lutheran, but I'm just telling you,

513
00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:06,160
the state church is the Lutheran church. And yet the overwhelming response we got from people

514
00:49:06,880 --> 00:49:11,920
is because I think we show so much light and within that light was a bunch of love.

515
00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:17,360
And because of that, they came and you would say those were dark countries and yet in reality,

516
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:24,880
they responded to the light, you know, where religion, if you think about it, think about it,

517
00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:30,560
you know, they could not comprehend it. But the people outside that were supposed to be in darkness

518
00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:33,680
could comprehend it. Is that something? It's beautiful.

519
00:49:34,800 --> 00:49:40,720
They have with Jesus, even on the planet, when He walked, you know, the religious people rejected

520
00:49:40,720 --> 00:49:46,880
Him. You know what I mean? But the people that came were outside of that. Remember that? We got so many

521
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:52,000
stories on that. So that's what it was really, Jesus downloaded that inside of me, you know,

522
00:49:52,000 --> 00:49:57,440
that that was talking about the Jewish nation as a whole with their religious belief system.

523
00:49:57,440 --> 00:50:03,040
That when that light came in, they were blind. They were blind. I don't mean blinded by the light,

524
00:50:03,040 --> 00:50:09,280
but blind. They could not even see the light. Yeah, I get it. You know, that brings home to me,

525
00:50:10,720 --> 00:50:15,840
like we said earlier, maybe we said it when we were talking about the details that God is in,

526
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:26,880
that He came to be our Savior in a time when the religious hierarchy was people that didn't belong

527
00:50:26,880 --> 00:50:33,600
there. They weren't legitimate, but there had to be somebody in that office that was dark enough

528
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:40,800
to crucify the Lord of glory. Yes. Yes. It had to be. And, you know, part of the anti-Semitism

529
00:50:40,800 --> 00:50:47,440
that is in our churches and in the world is saying, well, you know, they're just Christ killers.

530
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:54,800
And it's not that it wasn't the common people that did that. It was somebody who was in that position

531
00:50:54,800 --> 00:51:02,720
that was there illegitimately, but there had to be somebody in that position to do the sacrifice

532
00:51:02,720 --> 00:51:10,400
of the King of glory. He had to be that sacrifice lamb for us. And so, you know, I want to just say

533
00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:17,520
just throw off that anti-Semitism that is in the church that people have had this wrong understanding

534
00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:23,680
of, you know, the Jews this, the Jews that, you know, and anti-Semitism, that kind of thing.

535
00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:32,080
It was planned by our Father. I mean, it was allowed by our Father that this system of darkness

536
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:38,160
had to be put in all of these traditions and blindness had to come on them so that they would

537
00:51:38,160 --> 00:51:44,240
crucify Him and make life for the rest of us, make life for all of us, all of us. Wow.

538
00:51:44,240 --> 00:51:50,480
Yeah. Wow. And that's a blindness or a darkness that, you know, you just talked about, you know,

539
00:51:50,480 --> 00:51:57,280
the scales over the eyes, you know what I mean? Yeah. Those things are there, you know, in the

540
00:51:57,280 --> 00:52:03,600
sense God's going to use those things to advance His kingdom. Absolutely. I'm not going to say He

541
00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:10,560
causes those things because He gives us the ability to, but we're going to go in doing something

542
00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:17,040
like that. God's going to say, okay, I'm going to do this to still have my kingdom be advertised

543
00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:23,360
or out there in that sense. I don't know how many times in my own life I get an opportunity to be in

544
00:52:23,360 --> 00:52:29,280
a place that you could say people have scales over their eyes and then not say something.

545
00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:33,920
And I'd be very careful because I want to say what God wants me to say, not what Dean says.

546
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:39,200
And I'm thinking, oh boy, that was a, I'll give you a good example. Recently, I was in a church

547
00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:46,800
and the pastor there told me that they saw their husband breathe his last. Well, you know, I teach

548
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:53,600
the spirit leaves and then the body dies. So, what you're watching is the body struggling without

549
00:52:53,600 --> 00:53:00,640
the spirit. And I'm in this church and I'm thinking, you know, I got to say something and I say it out

550
00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:04,880
loud. I say it in front of everybody because the Holy Spirit says, I want you to say it. Sometimes

551
00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:09,600
He tells me they're not ready, don't say something. But in this case, afterwards, she comes up to me

552
00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:16,080
says, I knew he wasn't there. I knew he wasn't there. You just confirmed what I knew, but no

553
00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:21,360
one had told me that. And I knew my husband wasn't there even though he breathed his last. I knew he

554
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:26,400
wasn't there. It didn't look like him. It didn't seem like him. I said, Lord, you are so good,

555
00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:32,640
you know, because she had that blinders over her eyes, but God showed a light that literally could

556
00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:39,120
open up and she saw it and it freed her up. Does that make sense to you? But I didn't know that he

557
00:53:39,120 --> 00:53:44,880
was going to do that, you know, at that time, just like when he had me be in that Unitarian

558
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:51,440
conference. But that lady comes all the way to where you guys are and recommits her life back

559
00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:59,280
to the Lord. You know, she's serving the Lord to this day. I was in San Farrell recently and

560
00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:04,880
two of the people that know her go to the same church she go to now and she's serving God in a

561
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:11,360
miraculous way. But that was again, God showing that light and she came to it and she was in

562
00:54:11,360 --> 00:54:16,960
darkness. You know what I mean? But it wasn't the darkness like what Jesus was talking about there

563
00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:22,480
because, you know, the Jewish people were supposed to be the most enlightened people at the time

564
00:54:22,960 --> 00:54:28,480
when it came to God's ways. And yet they were so dark and they were blind that they couldn't see

565
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:33,440
the light, the true light. But, you know, the good thing about it is God never gave up on him.

566
00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:40,320
You know, he never did. Even when Jesus walked on the planet, he didn't say, Jesus, now look,

567
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:45,840
these people are too dark. I'm going to have you go over here. Now people came from different

568
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:51,440
the Samarians and some Gentiles came to him, you know, but the reality of it, he didn't never send

569
00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:57,680
them away from the Jewish people. People don't realize that. All the way up to the end. He stayed

570
00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:03,200
with it. And even afterwards, he wanted to make sure there was some grounding with them before he

571
00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:07,520
spread it out. Is that good news? Is that good news? Yeah, absolutely. There's always been a

572
00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:13,520
messianic movement. Yeah. Always. Is that good news? I'm just excited about that because you

573
00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:20,640
think about the day of Pentecost, you know, yes, the entire world got impacted by it. But when that

574
00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:27,120
entourage came, it was for the Jewish people first, you know, to bring them, because all those different

575
00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:33,520
Jewish people from all over the world. Right. Right. They were all Jewish that were there.

576
00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:38,560
Yeah. All of them from all those different nations, they were all Jewish. And then where did they go?

577
00:55:38,560 --> 00:55:44,400
They went back to the different nations. Exactly. And they carried the light. They carried the light,

578
00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:49,360
you know, at least even if people would say, I don't know, but now it's out there.

579
00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:58,000
It's almost like having social media. Yes, absolutely. Once it was released and they went

580
00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:03,760
all over the world, it's out there now. Yep. Yep. And it can go faster because of social media.

581
00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:12,160
Oh, man. That's exciting, ain't it? It sure is. So speaking of media, let's just go through the fact

582
00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:17,680
that you have books on your website, or they can get them through Amazon. I think we even have them

583
00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:25,120
in our website. I'm not sure. I know that we sell them. Your book, In Heaven, and Deep Worship in

584
00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:32,400
Heaven, and What It Feels Like to Die, and your wife's book. A Woman's Stand. A Woman's Stand,

585
00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:39,920
How She Stood and Prayed, even though it looked hopeless. And she prayed and she wouldn't let

586
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:45,520
anybody in to say anything negative. If you're not going to speak life, you can't come.

587
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:54,000
Don't even bother to visit. And I think there's a coloring book as well. Yeah. You know, I need to

588
00:56:54,000 --> 00:57:00,400
there saying the king. And then there's also the Spanish, you know. We did it in Spanish. And so

589
00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:06,720
those are the books. I'm in the process of writing What It Was Like to Meet Your Family in Heaven.

590
00:57:06,720 --> 00:57:12,640
Oh, God. I've been working on that book for a while now, but it's exciting because God is really

591
00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:17,200
opening up some things for me. Did you know? Well, I don't know. We have time. I can't go there.

592
00:57:17,200 --> 00:57:24,560
Take it, take it, take it. Take the time. You know, the Jewish community, as people don't realize,

593
00:57:24,560 --> 00:57:31,040
really represents so much about Heaven. I always tell people it's not a Jewish custom, it's a

594
00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:37,280
heavenly custom. Because most people think of it as a Jewish custom, but it isn't. Because

595
00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:43,440
where they got it from is from Heaven. And yeah, they added some things, don't get me wrong. But the

596
00:57:43,440 --> 00:57:50,240
the foundation of everything that they do is from Heaven. So if that's the foundation, then that

597
00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:55,760
means there's a model in Heaven, or better yet, the models here, the originals in Heaven. And so

598
00:57:56,560 --> 00:58:03,040
one of the things that God has done is around family. And look at how he did the family for

599
00:58:03,040 --> 00:58:09,040
the Jewish people. You know, we say Jewish, but we know there were the 12 tribes, you know. And

600
00:58:09,040 --> 00:58:14,400
those 12 tribes, we call them tribes, but really they were families. They weren't, you know. So

601
00:58:14,400 --> 00:58:20,800
if you think about it, we have Israel, and Israel then has these sons, and Joseph's two sons, I mean,

602
00:58:20,800 --> 00:58:29,040
were part of the 12 tribes. But he has these sons, and now they're family, really. And he divides them.

603
00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:34,080
Oh boy, people don't realize this. Each of the families had their own specialties.

604
00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:40,240
Yes. Yeah. You know, we know about the Levites, because we know they're the priestlyhood and

605
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:45,600
everything like that. But every family had a specialty that they were good in. And that's how

606
00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:50,560
Heaven is. That's how Heaven is. And when we get to Heaven, we're going to hook back up with our

607
00:58:50,560 --> 00:58:56,240
families. And we're going to be able to do the things that we're doing in Heaven from a family

608
00:58:56,240 --> 00:59:02,000
point of view. Yes, individually. But if you really think about it, it's going to be a family effort.

609
00:59:02,000 --> 00:59:08,240
The closest I can come is again, going back to the Jewish people and how they served in the temple.

610
00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:13,760
And they served in the temple as families, you know, in their lot or in their order. And their

611
00:59:13,760 --> 00:59:19,600
order was always families. And so people don't realize it was families that served in the temple.

612
00:59:19,600 --> 00:59:24,160
And they were lotted, not just men, because some people say it was just men. They were lotted with

613
00:59:24,160 --> 00:59:33,840
women and children also. So this whole thing about family is really broken down on how we will

614
00:59:33,840 --> 00:59:41,840
socialize in Heaven is really found within the nuances of the Jewish community, as I say, if you

615
00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:47,600
look at the basics. Okay? Wow. That's fascinating. And people don't realize that. So he's given us

616
00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:53,280
a model of how we're going to do things there. But he used the children of Israel to be the model.

617
00:59:53,280 --> 00:59:59,360
Is that cool? Is that cool? That is so cool. I want to talk about that some more another time.

618
00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:04,080
And we will. We will. I don't know just when God is going to make the way for us to do that,

619
01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:09,680
but we will talk about that some more. This is fascinating. Yes. And I just want to mention

620
01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:18,160
again, the movie After Death that is coming out into the theaters October 27th. And looking forward

621
01:00:18,160 --> 01:00:24,880
to seeing what God does there and praying into this that God will plow the hearts of the people

622
01:00:24,880 --> 01:00:29,200
that are going to come there and that He's going to draw people there that weren't expecting to go

623
01:00:29,200 --> 01:00:34,000
there. They were thinking they were going to go see something else and they just are drawn to go

624
01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:40,000
and see this after death. Maybe they've lost a loved one or something and they want to know more.

625
01:00:40,880 --> 01:00:46,400
And they're just going to be drawn there. So we're praying into that. Before we go, what is your

626
01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:50,400
website? Website. Thank you. What is your website? It's just deanbraxton.com.

627
01:00:50,400 --> 01:00:59,520
Okay. That's the website. I will tell people to watch out for our email. It's having some problem.

628
01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:04,880
It's like we can receive messages, but we can't send them out. So I'm going to give a different

629
01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:10,320
email just because of the one we're having. We've been trying to fix it technically for about two

630
01:01:10,320 --> 01:01:20,320
weeks now, but it's deanmarylandbraxton.msn.com. Okay. So the email that we have on the website is

631
01:01:20,320 --> 01:01:27,280
having technical difficulties that we don't know why. Okay. All right. Well, before we go,

632
01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:31,920
would you please pray for our listeners? Father, thank you for each and every person

633
01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:39,120
that's listening. This has been so good. You really, yes, showed yourself strong today.

634
01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:45,280
And the things that were said, everything that was said was to help people move from darkness into

635
01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:52,080
light. If there's anyone out there that's in a dark area in their lives, even if they don't know

636
01:01:52,080 --> 01:01:59,120
it, show the light upon it so that they can literally see the opening, you know, what was

637
01:01:59,120 --> 01:02:05,360
going on and that they can move out of that area by that opening that you showed them. I thank you

638
01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:09,840
in the name of Jesus. Amen. Amen.
