  • Modern missions history contains the record of what happened to those who allowed God’s grace to energize them. Just over 90 years ago to a living legend named CT Studd went to uncharted regions of central Africa. After already serving 21 years in China and India, he went to invest his final years in the heart of Africa’s vast, dark jungles among the fierce, cannibal, head-hunting pygmies.
    By the hot, steamy summer of 1931, his congregation that sat for his Bible teaching numbered thousands of former headhunters. Their bodies, formerly the habitation of dark, foul fiends from the pit-are temples of the Living God. Before their beloved father in the faith, they sit in an immense sea of white-toothed smiles. With faces turned heavenward they sing of the sweet by and by and that beautiful shore they will someday see.
    Passed now are the years of darkness and savagery. The former enemies sit shoulder to shoulder. No weapons of war are left, only the bond of love. But these days in July would be the last sight of his dear saintly converts Studd would see on earth. After his message uttered between gasps for air, with every ear strained to catch each word, he is carried back to his hut. Exhausted, he rests for the day; though only his Savior knew it was his last.
    In the night the Faithful Shepherd who had led him to China, then India, and finally to the very heart of Africa - took CT home after a 21-year ministry in the Congo. In the morning only the shriveled earthly tent of his body was left. But around that hut and to the furthest reaches of the jungles and on mission stations around the world, the footprints of this giant can be found today.

    God Bless you and yours. I be sure to listen to you everyday. I don't watch a lot of pastors because of so many being false but the Lord would never let me not listen to you. God Bless there is someone to teach the truth.

    I appreciate you saying it is important to have heroes (not idols). We all need examples to look to follow, not worship. That’s reserved for He that purchased our tickets to Heaven.
    3 Greatest Powers in the Universe (outside of God)
    I. Spoken Word
    II. Association
    III. Submission (under the mission)
    If you disagree with the list, remember, it works both for the positive and the negative as well. Someone can deny the “law” of gravity then jump out a window and die. They just “confirmed” the law of gravity.
    Now, take the 3 laws I listed. Use them as a lens, a prism and I promise if we look at our lives we will see them strongly at work.
    *We get what we speak continually.
    *We become those we spend the most time with, and...
    *We only accomplish great (and terrible) things together, under a mission that’s clear and defined.
    Thank you Doctor Barnett. I’ve listened to at least one of your RUclips videos everyday for past 3 months (often multiple videos)...I’ve learned so many things listening to you bring God’s word and His Promises with such clarity and focus. It’s truly amazing the gifts you possess and more importantly, what you’ve done with them. Truly remarkable. I’m not gonna stop learning Truth. And I can say without reservation. “Dr. Barnett, you are one of my heroes!

    Deeds done in humility set others free. Be yourself for Christ is your wealth! And you're worth more than many sparrows. Remember Cliff Barrows.

    Ask a young child do they have an imaginary friend? Dad's and Mam's emotional investment added to my understanding to what God is like, plus all the other noble caring folk that helped. And I read about missionaries who pioneered new work or added their particular life for Christ and all Christian's are missionaries wherever they are!

    Don't have any heroes other than God & Christ; If your child had a friend that never showed any respect (garbage, break things etc...) for his house or for any other place they went would you want your child to bring that person over to stay at your house? Just a curious question.

      @@soundsolutions if you want what is best for your children than why are you helping to poison their water and food; take a good look at the world and you will understand my statement/question better; Read Genesis 1:26 God gave man Dominion over the, but s man is destroying the earth pollution to make the things man and many who call themselves Christians call blessings from God; for the most part if I was God seeing what you have done to the earth I would not let any of you into my Kingdom; Broad is the path narrow is the gate; not all who says Lord, Lord will enter into the Kingdom; Just some things to think about

    God's Judgement is being poured out in the world. There is no more of God's Grace as time is up. God is no longer playing and the world is experiencing God's Judgement. The World is condemned due to her iniquities; was judged and found wanting. More Judgements and Scriptural Prophecy are coming to life. Pay attention for these times are not like any other times nor shall there be any more times like these. Wake up because many are fallen aslumber unawares. Take heed to test the spirits and read scripture to study to shew thyself approved. I suggest reading Revelation to TRULY understand what's to come because it's coming quickly beloved. Peace, true peace is gone out of the world and is replaced with a false peace. Heed these words of warning people. Please.
    2 Thessalonians 2:1-12
    [1]Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him,
    [2]That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
    [3]Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;
    [4]Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.
    [5]Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?
    [6]And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.
    [7]For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
    [8]And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:
    [9]Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,
    [10]And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
    [11]And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
    [12]That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
    Revelation 6:1-8
    [1]And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
    [2]And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
    [3]And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.
    [4]And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
    [5]And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
    [6]And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
    [7]And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
    [8]And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
    We are in the Tribulation. There could be a setting up for prophetic events to occur such as the Psalms 83 and Ezekiel 38 war. We are officially in the Tribulation folks. Buckle up!
    P.S. beware, the Strong Delusion is out and about in the world. There is a FALSE peace occuring right now.
