(00:06):
When God puts a call and agift in your life, you have no
choice but to fulfill it. Welcometo Pastor Ricardo Correa' s podcast,
pastor of the Montesina Church and inNorth Carolina, prepare your heart to receive
a word that will lead you toGod' s truth. Done, what

(00:29):
eight from twenty- six to forty. When you have it, say Amen,
Amen, Amen, the word Godwas the father name of the son
of Holy Cross. Amen says thefollowing. As for Felip, an angel
of lord told him to go southalong the desert road that goes to Jerusalem
and Gaza. Then he began hisjourney and met the treasurer of Ethiopia,

(01:00):
a very authoritative encoder under the commandof Candase, the Queen of Ethiopia.
The enoch had gone to Jerusalem toworship and now he was coming back.
Sitting in his carriage, he readaloud the book of Prophet Said. The
strum santole told Philip to come andwalk by the carriage. Philip ran up

(01:26):
and heard that the man read theprophet Isaiah. Philip asked him to understand
those who are reading. The mananswered and how I can understand it unless
someone explained to me and begged Philipto get up the carriage and sit next
to him. The passage from thescripture that I read was as follows.

(01:48):
As a sheep, she was takento the slaughterhouse and as a courtier in
silence before her shearers. He didn' t open his mouth, he was
humiliated, and they didn' tdo him justice. Who can speak of
his descendants, for his life wastaken from the earth. The nape asks
Philip tell me speaks the prophet nearhimself or someone else. Then, beginning

(02:12):
with that portion of the scripture,Philip told him about the good news about
Jesus. As they went together,they came to a place where there was
water and the Luco said look therethere is water, what prevents me from
being baptized. He ordered the carriageto be stopped, they went down into

(02:32):
the water, and Philip baptized him. When they came out of the water,
the spirit of lord challenged Philip.The encocture never saw him again,
but he went on his way withgreat joy. Meanwhile, Philip was found
further north, in the city ofAsoto. He preached the good news there
and in every village along the wayuntil he reached Caesarea. The word of

(02:57):
God is blessed and you can takeyour daughter. We see in the Bible
the ways of evangelizing. We seethat there are several ways we can study
and apply in every season of ourlives. We had already studied what was
Jesus' mode of evangelization, buttoday we are going to what it is

(03:22):
to enter Philip' s mode ofevangelism. And I want to talk about
Philip because Philip is very interesting.Christ had already died, had ascended,
the forty days had passed and Philipwas one of those who had taken on

(03:46):
being disciples of Jesus. Now theinteresting thing that we have in this entire
chapter story eight out of twenty-six forty is that we see how Philip
' s spiritual condition is in orderto evangelize us. Let' s see

(04:08):
how our spiritual condition is. It' s so obvious. The word here
says that the passage begins, versetwenty- six, that the angel of
lord approaches him and spoke to whom, to Philip when was the last that
you had an angel that will speakto you. Maybe they' re talking

(04:28):
to you about the China bagpipe,right, maybe he' s talking to
you. Well, I don't know what replaced Walte to the market
at first impact. I don't know, but maybe you spoke the
horoscope. But the word says thatthe angel of lord approaches Philip and says
hey go into the desert. Letus be quick, as Philip obeys and

(04:58):
goes into the desert. We seehow angels speak to Philip. Not only
are the angels ana Philip, butif there is no more, then he
says the following in the verse.In the verse, the spirit told Philip
vesicle twenty- nine, approach andwalk by the carriage. We see again

(05:26):
how Philip' s spirituality is vitalin all of this. Look when we
' re going to evangelize. Itis not that we believe ourselves the most
holy, but please that we havea communion with the Holy Spirit are with
me, because we, in fact, depending on the attitude that we are
going to approach someone to preach people, can easily grasp that. And when

(05:49):
you are making a servant of God, are you doing obeying? What he
' s telling you, you're not questioning what he' s asking
you. If you' re notobeying? You tell him that a humble
spirit, Lord what you say weknow how we here in the word,
are seeing how not only the angelspoke to him. The spirit of God

(06:12):
also tells Philip Runs and to thelatter, Philip' s spirituality is so
obvious that the word. And it' s the last thing that God'
s spirit snatched Philip away. Theyknow it' s snatching, snatching is
grasping hard, that' s snatchingaway. The word says that God’

(06:34):
s spirit snatched Philip away and tookhim elsewhere. In other words, you
want to know that Philip asked usand where to now how far away.
Oh no, I didn' tPhilip, he got carried away by God

(06:55):
' s spirit. Let us understandthat having a level of spirituality helps to
go, to evangelize, to beconsecrated spirit of God do to me what
you want, God, is goingto be great things. I told them
and I' ve talked about itseveral times. There was a testimony that

(07:17):
I had many years ago, thatI was in a church where I was
near Lincoln, Lincoln Clinic, andthere was what it was. I went
to La Lincoln to do something andwhen I come back studying for the service
and said and while I walk,I go down a street that is not
very friendly and I see on theside where I am walking, I see

(07:43):
that there is a brunette fighting withanother brunette who is sitting on the balcony,
just as it does we pass inour villages and the two dad and
moonla were screaming at them and Isaid you know this bull thing with me.
I crossed the street and went back. I mean, if I walk
and walk and while I' mwalking the cua brunette when I' m
passing by them, love doesn't stop and looks at me and tells
me who you are and I,my God here got the thing with me

(08:07):
and I like a good English Isaid I don' t know. He
tells me who you are and Itell me why you ask and he tells
me why I' m watching.Angels with you and I said dandale because
I am Ricardo. He tells meI need you to come with me,
so amen where do you want meto go? I want you to go
to my house, where you livein two houses below, okay, so

(08:31):
let' s go and get meinto that house. And that house.
You know that there are houses thatsmell oil, burned, right, that
yes, there are some that smellfish, burned, right, that yes,
there are others that smell. Well, it wasn' t oil,
it wasn' t fish, Idon' t know what it was.
But a smell is an incredible houselike death. And I get into that

(08:52):
house and he tells me don't come, come with me and I
go in the room, all there, all the groceries of the room and
I like a good, like agood Christian, I go in and pass
the first room and for no momentI thought about my safety look at this,
nor thought of my security, becausereally someone could see what to close
the door and would have done?I would' ve done it for them

(09:15):
I wouldn' t have done anything. And what happens then is the second
quarter and I, my God,it' s this. And when I
got to the end of the room, at the end of the hall,
there I saw a man drunk ondrugs, with incredible smell, my seal
on this help Let' s gonow for him, I prayed, for

(09:39):
him and brothers, the spirit ofsnatching me because I left faster than light
from that house. I quickly leftthat house, but she followed me by
where you go to church and sheaccompanied me and it was like half a
block down and there, God touchedher greatly and had deliverance. And everything
I told you, namely, that' s when you' re there in
the presence of God, you don' t question where, God, God

(10:00):
is going to take you where Godtakes you is because there' s someone
who' s in need. Philip, having an intimate relationship with God,
having a full spiritual life, lethimself be carried away by the spirit.
He didn' t question, heasked us, he didn' t waver,

(10:20):
he opposed us, he didn't do anything. He just said
where you' re taking me.I' m coming. We have to
understand this about what the Philip modelis. The importance of us being willing
as children of God where it willlead us. The second important thing about
what the Philip model is is obedienceLook. Obedience is vital in Philip'

(10:41):
s model of vangelism. First ofall, we see that Philip, in
passage twenty- six, says concerningPhilip, an angel of lord told him
to go south along the way ofthe wilderness. We see how Philip did

(11:03):
not hesitate to go where they understandthis in the desert. He didn'
t question, he didn' thesitate. He said sir if you majita
in the desert. There I amgoing. There are many people who are
comfortable here today Look at the mostbeautiful facility we have and people say no
that people get here to the Church. That' s not the Felipe model.

(11:28):
The Felipe model is that going tothe desert, is going to look
for people, is to go tothe bars, is to go to the
football fields, is to go tothe supermarket, is to go to the
house of a friend, of afriend and to come and say you know
what I come to share with youtoday. Look, I' m up
here with the idea that the Churchjust comes to sit down and do nothing

(11:54):
and people out there get lost.We have to go out into the desert
to find those who are lost.They don' t need to, they
need someone to find them. Justlike a madman. There are people out
there walking. I mean, heremembers in the boy of eight, when
he kicked the can down that he' s going to say the kick pretty

(12:18):
hard, why to kick it againbecause it looks like nobody' s gonna
kick him. There are people outthere right now who are kicking their problem
down, because you know no one' s going to be interested in helping
him in his problem. But ifyou are sent by God, you must
tend that person. Aren' tthey gonna be comfortable in one place?

(12:39):
They' ll be in an awkwardplace. Let me tell you this.
Even if the person has finances,there are people who, even though they
still have everything spiritually, are inone is true. Let us not judge
one who understands this. This footguy wasn' t just anybody. He

(13:01):
was a smart man. He wasa finance math man, good butler,
because if treasurer is why, thenbutler knows how to handle finance. I
had the confidence of the queen.That means he was a man of that
confidence and yet he was in hischariot reading something that he didn' t

(13:24):
understand. Understand that there are peopleout there who look, even if they
have titles, even if they havemaster' s degrees, even if they
have two bullfights, even if theyhave the money, to whom they have
the position, even if they havethe confidence. There are people in the
desert who are waiting for you tocome to him for you to go and

(13:48):
talk to them. And Philip wasobedient, and was sent into the wilderness.
Look, Felipe comes in the desertand looks at what' s going
on. Msovia is in the desertand the only thing you see is a
chariot of a man who looks prosperousthe most obvious thing is that if you

(14:11):
' re alone and I' malone, that I come near but my
thing, the spirit tells Philip,Hey, Philip go and come closer.
There are times that God will tellyou to do the obvious, because there
are times that you don' tdo the obvious. No, sir,
you' re killing me You're killing me I saw a float,

(14:31):
but I didn' t know youwanted me to be with them. The
spirit of God tells Philip go andapproach me I want you to approach How
many people, God has not troubledyou to approach How many people, God
does not put your heart and aboutthis person ay no father, is that

(14:54):
I fall so fat. I don' t even pass it through water.
Sir, give yourself the other sister. Give yourself to another brother. I
can' t, sir, ormaybe I' ll text you hello.
How are you looking at what Felipedid? Philip did not walk near,

(15:16):
he says the word, says twenty- nineth century, and the spirit told
Philip," Come near and walkby the chariot" Philip came running,
he didn' t walk, hesnooped, he ran, wait for it

(15:39):
doesn' t sound like it's going to go I' m not
going after him. How many timesGod does not put your heart on that
you follow someone and not tomorrow andtomorrow never comes tomorrow. I call it

(16:00):
' cause this Netflix series is reallyhot. Netflix, look, listen to
me It' s the entertainment chain. I like Netflix to be careful with
Netflix with all the media. Yeah, be careful,' cause they'
re gonna stay there for three orfour hours and you may have called someone,
you can dress someone, but you' re there on the couch Felipe

(16:23):
ran and the Ethiopian approaches. Nowlook at this, Philip, he keeps
carrying the gospel. We see whatis in Vesicle 40 which says the following.
Meanwhile, Philip found himself further north, in the city of Asoto preached

(16:49):
the good news there and in everyvillage along the way until he reached Caesarea.
So, in other words, Philipwas convinced that he had to be
doing exactly what the spirit led himinto the desert to do. Philip gives

(17:10):
us the example that when God callsyou to approach someone to evangelize that you
do not stop with that person,go on with the next one. And
if it' s with the nextone, and it' s that with
the next one, Felipe didn't wane. Felipe didn' t take
off. Philip was seeing from villageto village carrying that good news. Ay
no pastor, already punch I alreadypreached to someone already saved I will be

(17:33):
comforting until next year they. ButGod does not want you to be constantly
evangelizing. There' s people outthere who need us and we came back
here eating them. We' rehere discussing nonsense. Who has but something,

(18:02):
who has short hair, who wearsskirt, who wears pants, who
chaba the bullet, who makes girl, look at nonsense. While there are
people outside who are missing out.You know understand and understand this that we
have to be constantly offering the spiritof God. How we want to have

(18:26):
the reward of the chorus of lifeif we do not evangelize, if we
do not speak to anyone. It' s just that it gives me a
thing to talk to people, youtalk to everyone about the hottest gossip in
your country, don' t tellthem about Christ. It' s something
else or not. Oh, ofcourse I do. Look, Hot Papa,

(18:47):
Hot Papa, who will it be? That' s how they are
Let me tell you. Look,look, listen to me, look,
for you to see. Yesterday Imake a phone call to the ponic and
they tell me such beautiful news thatLook. I' m the people who
already are nine o' clock atnight. I don' t call anyone
anymore, I don' t callanyone, but Narices gave me so much

(19:08):
joy because I talked to this personand look, it' s not about
anything, but sometimes a relative who' s smart. But sometimes men are
kind of slow and I fell at20 pesos. Me speaking of this person
and me seriously, oh mycon iswhat joy it gives me. I'
m hanging up the tréphone, thisperson, I' m looking at the
phone. It' s nine andfifty- three at night and I said
no. No, no, thiscan' t wait till tomorrow. Wait

(19:30):
a minute. I think it's time to call my God and the
person won' t answer me.I said he' s gonna have to
be scared because the pastor, callinghouses of the night, is gonna say
my God. The pastor called mewhat will have happened, but the sister
calls me back and tells me Pastor, as I said look sister, I
am super happy aha, Pastory,because I finally dropped the twenty pesos of
what is happening. And you didn' t know this and this and this,

(19:52):
Pastor, I knew it. Lookhow God is. I could not
contain myself, I could not waituntil the next day to share something good
that God was here doing to me. I was like, I can'
t wait till tomorrow, even ifit' s almost ten o' clock

(20:15):
at night. But I do thisperson because I have a joy in seeing
what God is doing in the lifeof this other person who ends up being
related to her, that I saidmy God forgive me the sister, but
I will call them now. That' s the way to share. The
gospel cannot wait until tomorrow, butwe postpone it if or continue to postpone

(20:41):
and God wants you to rise upthat you are constantly carrying the good news.
Now. This is the way.If there' s something I love
about what Philip' s model evangelismis, it' s the next one
how to relate, because at thetime the truth lets me tell you something.

(21:06):
As Christians, we are sometimes badat interacting with the person. We
don' t know how to talkto people. We don' t know
how to get close to people.Look at this. Imagine, imagine the
image. Philip appears in the desert. There goes the float. The spirit
tells him in the ear, heygo running, go close to the chariot.

(21:30):
And Felipe' s running. Andwhile he' s running, he
' s reading what a book.And while he is running, because he
does not stop the chariot, whilehe hears and what you read isaiah,
but who. If no one explainsit to me, then the parre says
that the float stopped there. Andalas, Philip rode. And there Philip

(21:55):
explained to him. Look at this, Felipe asked him a question so simple
that he opened the communication with thegoose look. I want you to talk
to people about Christ, please don' t give me theological questions that you

(22:18):
don' t know the answer,you know that you come with really concern
and how you are and how youare doing and what you have done.
I mean, they' re questionsthat are so simple. But the other

(22:41):
days come I gave someone a hugand we were hugged there and told me
you know what it' s beena while since they gave me a hug.
So, people today have become soaesthetic, or they want to be
so high truth that they do notask simple questions anymore. Listen to how
you are, how your day wentpretty much to me, too, but

(23:06):
smile that you are loved by giris. Philip approached her and asked her a
simple question. This is what Ilove about the Philip model, that he
' s personal, not pastor.It' s because there I was taught
to preach to people, because later, if after me a Carlos comes to

(23:29):
plast or a conditioned air falls onhim and kills them and they go to
hell because they didn' t knowChristo. Oh, that' s my
fault I' m gonna have itbecause when I go up to the prisoner
of heaven and put the movie ofmy life in front of me and Jesus
says aha to that one, youdidn' t preach to him You'
re going to leave the pearls ofhell. I' m gonna feel bad.
That' s how they raised me. They raised me spiritually that I

(23:52):
had to preach to everyone in fiveminutes or less, because if I don
’ t know what to do withthe person out of fear. They taught
me a gospel in fear. Then, when I preached, the time came
when I evangelized. Maybe one ortwo listened to me. Maybe one or

(24:15):
two would stop my ball, butmaybe most of them wouldn' t listen
to me. Then I was frustratedand said," Then go away,
go away, you lose the end" So, you, what a mess
I' m in fine, gothe infiero, then why One was so
far from being denied, because youfelt you had to win this watch.
Philip stood up to him and it' s like him And the spirit sent

(24:40):
me to tell you to repent.No. He just came up and told
him that you' re reading,Sergio, how you are, what you
' re reading. Look. Let' s go back to basics, let
' s go back to evangelizing ina personal way. Let' s sit

(25:04):
down, talk to the person,that is, be intentional in getting close
to them and say you interest me. He wants to hear you. Felipe,
he wasn' t active, hewasn' t proud. I mean,
uh- huh He' s reading. Isaiah. One of the most
difficult books to understand the word ofGod the seventy weeks are there, my

(25:29):
God, you saw the beasts andyou saw the statue and you saw the
metals. People don' t careabout that. What people care about is
being able to listen to me well, they have a relationship with God.
You understand Look at what you understandme for. The word says that the
etiop was coming from Jerusalem in whatit was doing. He knows what Jerusalem

(25:51):
is doing worshipping care of this Iwas worshiping and I still did not know
of whom, God or Jesus.More than anything, he understands this is
human nature. To worship something heavenly. There is a need for our body

(26:11):
to mature something beyond us. Heends up in Jerusalem. Not then,
if everyone is going to use himnadural, for I too am going to
go and when he returns, Iimagine that he was impacted by the supernatural
environment that was there, by theenvironment that was actually formed in praise and
said wow. Well, let's get the isaiah roll and I'
ll start reading it and see ifI can learn the light bulb. He

(26:37):
' s already a person, inhabitsa relationship, sorry is happening. I
had had an experience with God,but I have not known God. There
are many out there who have hadexperience with God, but do not know
God. There are many who havecrossed the border. And said sir,
if you keep me from this,sir I promise you that all live and

(27:00):
come God and Fuaki takes it out. From that place. They had an
experience with God, but you don' t know God is not the same.
He has an experience with God thatknowing God is not the same.
Because I am no longer surprised bywhat God does. I' m glad,
I' m not surprised. AndPhilip was a person who wasn'

(27:22):
t uplifting, he wasn' tproud, he came up with a simple
question and he looks at what hesays. You know what. Philip,
the next thing he does is nottalk about other pastors, not talk about
his ministry, not talk about theChurch, not talk about the crashing spirits
of the Thirty- One Witch.He didn' t talk about anything like
that. If he did not speaksimply of the Gospel, see what he

(27:48):
spoke of the Gospel to see whatthe word says he understands what is reading
verse thirty- one, the namewith to and how he can understand it.
Unless someone explained to me and beggedPhilip to get in the carriage and
enter with him the passage of thescripture. I read that it was the

(28:10):
next boom There it happens toéciWhen the thirty- four Vesicle arrives,
the only one asks Philip tell meabout himself or someone else' s prophet.
Then, beginning with that same portionof the scripture, Philip told him
about the good news about Jesus.What is the good news about that,
that someone has paid the price forour sins, that through him we have

(28:33):
eternal life, that we are anew person, we are transformed. Look
listen well, it' s goodnews when someone invites me to eat,
well, well, in my countryit' s different, because my country,
when they invite me to eat,doesn' t necessarily mean more to

(28:55):
what to pay. Here I learnedthis with you and I let you invite
people here and I said let's eat if you want to come and
you pay and then take care ofthis. Take care, because this is
the interesting thing when we come whatit is to talk about the Gospel.

(29:19):
We' re talking about something thatsomeone already paid for, already paid for,
and the sufferings, your sins,since you paid for it. It
doesn' t encourage you to dothat, it doesn' t give you
joy. That someone paid for it, it does give me joy. And
how I can repay this person whopaid for me. Listen to me well

(29:42):
following him as his disciple, butI will never be able to bring him
back. What he did for medon' t worry that through this you
' re going to have eternal lifehear. But this sounds like win wins.
If toation you win your win andthe famingaro amen the good news.
We all win the good news.It' s something that actually brings us

(30:06):
joy. Now listen to this.This is interesting when it is presented the
Gospel. Felipe didn' t makeit. Philip did not speak to us
the neck and did what was therennet of this day to tell him Christ
accepted that he never made us feelbad, because today people go to the
Church and look for them to doit. Feeling bad. I love it

(30:33):
when he preaches hard, that is, why you like that he pretenses you
hard enough because you' re steppingoutside base that I like and that I
like to be spoken like that tome I don' t like that he
charms me simple to put inside fewwords enough that I behave well. Yes,
sir, you' re gonna begood, but look at this.

(30:56):
There are people today that when theycome to the Church, there are people
who when they basket linen and say, nowadays, they are afraid look,
evaluate praise, evaluate clothing and evaluatehow the pastor preaches to see which,
that is, when he is goingto send me to Hell. I am
waiting for you, because today thereare people who specialize in giving you no

(31:17):
good news, bad bad news.You' re not going to hell You
' re not going to hell You' re going to be cursed You'
re not going to make Christ You' re going to rot like an apple.
The people who come to the Churchcome to hear word that those who
raise them up, because they aresearching in all the isa is that I

(31:40):
will try to go to the Church. I want the Church to prove them
is when they don' t findsomeone who actually judges them, who comes
what it really is to force themor, if not make them feel bad
the way they address them and theperson says you know what I liked the
Church. I' m going back, because no one really wants a place

(32:04):
to sit for two hours for someoneto rip off all the time. My
job is to expose the word ofGod to you so that you can train,
build and grow Hey, how didthe der best hear me not hear
me? Don' t you?Are there many who hang him hear me?

(32:27):
No. Pastor' s hanging me. I don' t want to
hang you. I want you toget up. I want you to be.
Someone who says Pastor Look, lookat the Church is not having a
relationship with God. We have sathere for a year, but now I
have the conviction of Christ Glory toGod. There are people who specialize.

(32:49):
Brother, I see you' rehere for the first time. Step in
front, go in front, goin front, don' t go out
like that, brother, you don' t know how to do the devil
out there. Look, let metell you something. Look for you to
see. Look for you to see. Look how small. There are people
who think the Church and forgive mefor saying this. The moment you enter
this Church, the moment you goto the door and you don' t

(33:12):
give your name. What do wedo? You know what we do?
We pray for you and you knowit' s going to be God,
it' s going to take careof you until you come at Christ'
s feet, because there' ssomeone who' s interceding. For you.
The Church has to let you play, say, leave whatever goes,

(33:32):
lose it. We' re notgoing for the person. Let us preach
the Gospel, as it should be, give good news and look, Look,
Look, how Philip presents the Gospelin the translation new living translation.

(33:53):
This passage is submitted, but inthe queen or in the sixties is the
thirty- seven passage expounded. Howyou knock him down if you can,
please, the thirty- seven passageof this chapter says the following, Philip
said if you believe wholeheartedly, wellyou can and answering, said I believe

(34:16):
it is Christ, is the sonof God Chele the gospel was to present
the good news to him. Andthe next question Philip asks is you believe
what you didn' t tell him, Uh- huh, tell me your

(34:42):
sins. He didn' t tellher you believe in the message I'
m giving you and a simple question. It brings an answer that' s
simple. Yeah, I think lookat my people here, here they'
re gonna break the other heads.Here he' s gonna break two other

(35:05):
heads because my foot hurts and Ithink he' s giving me the quick
service. But I' m goingto two or three heads. Here Look
first the entire encocture did not receivebaptism classes to be baptized. The enuch
only believed according to all the euchwas not baptized. It' s a

(35:30):
river bathed in water. How stagnantnot, Pastor, but it is that
it is biblical bats to do inthe river. Not baptizing in water.
It is a public expression of whatChrist has already done that inwardly in You
the Ennuch said what holds me backfrom Jesus Christ. Yeah, I believe

(35:53):
you, there' s a puddlethere we' re gonna stop it.
There the reason why the Church believedthis dogma of what it is we have
to give baptism classes before you letit be baptized. It' s because
I' ve heard two or threewho say it' s not that,
Pastor, I was baptized, butI didn' t know. I didn
' t know what I was doing. How little shame, as you will

(36:19):
not know whose fault it is thatthe Gospel set it up, then we
prolong what are things of which Lookcan be so distantaneous, Right now,
we have nowhere to baptize him.There' s no water, but if
anyone tells me this afternoon, youknow what. I want to be Christ

(36:42):
and I want to be baptized.Look, give me at least 20 minutes
that I' ll put you inthere in what' s in the bathroom.
I look for a bucket of waterand I baptize you, because if
you are willing, I am willing, too, because at the time of
truth, evangelism is enso and Iam not complacent. It grows in Christ,

(37:04):
yes, I think then what stopsyou. It' s so easy
today that even a child can dowhat to preach, but we make it
so and so complicated that Look takesaway people' s desire to come to
Christ' s feet do not come, because we ourselves complicate it. Philip

(37:30):
told him if you believe with allyour heart, you may well have forced
it on us. Let' sstop forcing people to make decisions that they
' re not ready to make.When they take it there they' ll

(37:52):
be there. They were 100%convinced to do it. The enoch was
a was one, one, one, a leash on the float. Perhaps
it will take weeks, months foryou, brother, sister, perhaps it
will take you a year, butI see that the word of faith comes

(38:15):
by hearing the word of God.I' d rather you sit here and
listen to the word than the firsttime you heard it, you didn'
t like what I said and youleft. You' re getting it.
Philip was obedient. I fill thespirit of God and knew how to relate

(38:42):
when we go to visit someone,now that we are in the choice Philip,
people, let us be wise inhow to do it. Uh-
huh I came to visit you.You got me coffee, get me coffee,
sis, don' t order thebread just coffee and sit down who
to listen to. Martha complained aboutMary why, because Martha was all busy

(39:12):
doing what to do while Mary wassitting here at Jesus' feet and Mars
says hey, but Jesus tells Marthathat Mary to get up and what Jesus
said, Don' t worry,don' t get frustrated you' re
going to someone' s house.Listen to me, don' t be

(39:36):
a distraction to them. You want, you want something to drink coffee,
juice, a little water, alittle water. I' ll take it
easy with a water. Okay,I bless this home Listen, I want
to talk to you about how you' ve been, how you' ve

(40:00):
been, what you' ve done. I want to talk to you.
I want to hear you. Whenpeople see people taking an interest in them,
look, they change their look.It changes you because they' re
going to say when they' regoing into the house, they' re
going to say wow. It mattersto someone, because someone cares about me.

(40:24):
It is the Gospel to bring thegood news to those who consider themselves
unworthy to be concerned and we enjoya glass of water. Oh Lord Help
me, look, put your complaintsaside and focus on the one that is

(40:45):
on you. Many times we areChristians who are giving ourselves a glass of
water when they say watch stand up. The other days he saw a video
this boy who is drowning there area real boat, that says, the
family and he is the shore andoh they say the water and the family
laughing says and what happens help mesays tell someone silly stand up and when

(41:07):
he stops the guy was on theshore. There are many people who,
unfortunately, drown on the shore.As a Christian, let us make the
shore, but there are people whodo not even save life. We have
to go run to them and sitdown and be people related to them.

(41:30):
That' s why I love themodel of Jesus, much like the one
Philip is carrying out. He's done with this. After Philip baptizes
him, he is lost and hasnothing else to do with him, and
his mission has been accomplished. Wedon' t know any more about the

(41:50):
Enuch. We know what Philip wasstill doing. The important thing was that
there was someone who brought the Gospelto the Queen Cadense. Look at more
interesting things. Tell me if whenthe Ethiopian comes to his kingdom, if
the Queen won' t tell himabout Christ. Of course I do.

(42:12):
You know that the Ethiopians are peopleyou have. They received the Gospel more
than any other Gentile in the principlesof the Gospel. Then let us see
the impact that Philip had on theGospel coming to Ethiopia because he spoke to

(42:37):
an encoct. Ethiopia. Felipe's model helps you get up. Look,
Felipe, he didn' t takecredit for that soul. That'
s another thing. Stop taking creditfor the people you saved. There are

(42:58):
people who have a memory here ofhow many people they have led to the
foot of Christ. That' snone of your business. You' re
a glass The glasses don' tknow when they were. A full of
water, wine, oju or coffeeor milk. We understand, we have

(43:25):
no memory. Let' s saylook, because I' m going to
be Pin sincere and it didn't happen to me. That' s
good. If it' s happenedto me, you know what' s
going on. We have to cometo America. There' s someone saying
no. I brought Ricardo because Iwas the one who paid him the ticket
so that how many of you havenot had relatives who have said if to
you ah no, Sergio Sergio ofanother is because I thank God that I

(43:50):
pay look for him to be heretake care of this? Take care of
this, just like we don't like him telling us. There are
many times that we say it.Those who come for us, then we
are not in the business of bringingout anyone' s face, because we
were used to make it to Christ' s pins. This whole thing about

(44:12):
us coming in and saying you knowwhat. I baptised you, I preached
you look leave that arrogance. Philipwas taken away and taken elsewhere to preach
the Gospel. Be your a glassused to bring the good news. Every
disciple of Christ ends up multiplying ina way that relates directly to others.

(44:37):
What do I say? All thedisciples of Jesus Christ end up relating in
a way that relates and directly looks. When we talk to someone about Christ,
have a plan, have a planto go and bring the good news.

(45:00):
Let' s follow it up,show the person we care about.
Let' s be honest with themand one day you exactly where you are
and how you did it. Godhelped me. Oh. I like talking
to you, because I just don' t feel like you' re judging
me, it' s just thatmy job isn' t to judge you.

(45:21):
My job is to present the gospelto you, and that' s
when the time comes. I wantto be there. I' ve told
other people. I want to bethere when Uste wants to be the shepherd
the day you give him your life, Christ woe, I want to be
like a fly on the wall andcelebrate with you when I do. In
the meantime, here will be yourside we help to grow the things of

(45:44):
God. Let us understand Church thatthere are many who enter, there are
many who come out, but theycome out for ourselves, because we do
not know related to them. Let' s have a mentality of interacting with

(46:04):
people out there. Let us nothave an active or proud heart. Let
us be sincere, personal, direct, kind, humble and, above all,
with an intention to share with themwhat Christ has done in your whole

(46:28):
