   Welcome to goodger selfie and talks. I’m Levi and I’m Chris and I’m Brian, thank you for joining us this week. On this podcast, we select one taco week to help us get the Bible in our daily news feed. We post a new episode of the start of each week with a short intro before. Hand to kind of set the stage for the talk. You’re about to listen to and now let’s talk more about this week’s talk.

2. 0:52

   This week we’re listening to an excitation that was given a few weeks ago. If we do go by Brother naseeb Shanker, this is Brother deceives first excitation that he has ever given. And it was suggested to me by another member of Verdugo. I wasn’t there this the week that brother nesib gave this excitation but I was able to listen to the recording of. It is a great example of personal testimony for the nesib talks about his life’s journey and how he came to discover the truth.

3. 1:21

   And his wife and his family and just the impact that even a single word we say or we comment when we’re telling somebody else about the faith in the hope that we share the impact that that can have on somebody else and their Journey. So I found this to be a really good reminder of how important it is to even just do the daily testimonials that we do with sharing, the hope that we have. The people that we interact with not hiding that and putting our light under a bushel.

4. 1:51

   You can just hear the passion that brother naseeb has in the words that he speaks, and the impact that the truth has had in his life. As I mentioned before, this was a recommendation that was sent in. So anytime you have a class or an expectation or something, you hear that you think is really excellent, please be sure to send it through. Even if you think, it’s something that is special for the context by which the class is given, please share it. We love, you know, to share those special moments with people.

5. 2:19

   It makes the the power of the word is even more amazing when you get to listen to them. And with that, I will turn it over to brother naseeb for his expectation. On a few little words, good morning, brother, sister and friend. I’m so happy to be here today. Today is my first exhortation and I want to talk about act chapter 9 Most of you, you know, me, I was born in Damascus.

7. 3:32

   The change the debate but I remember. I’m so happy today. I know my exultation talking about board was his soul. So what do we read? Book at first sixth chapter, you know mentioned about soul and first time we mention about soul is act chapter 7 and the end verse 58, goes be brother sister and to act 7:58 he said here an end. And the witness let down their closing at the feet of a young man named Soul.

8. 4:28

   His yank name, and his first time he mentioned about soul and second, second time we mention about, soul is 8:3 he said here, but soul Was Revenge that church and soul, restrict hoot Church. and he’s very, very Powerful God guide. So now brother sister we go to chapter 9 is so interesting. And today, we are going to divide in it and section.

    I was he do it at Damascus and and what he what? He sees Jesus and the road. And now the disciple at Jerusalem he believed him. And again he start to teach and that Jesus is the son of God and hear. A lot of people Jerusalem, we have a different view from anywhere and which is a capital for Ezra in for sure.

22. 13:49

    Then the disciple from Greek are trying to consult to. So So verse 28 to 30 Soul one tutor Seuss and and he probably start his mission work that he want to wear his bone, worried his born, and Tarsus have 22 her Stream. So, what Jesus, he tell about teaching salt, he go to jail.

24. 15:16

    He wants to talk to us. Far away. For brother sister here, Soul was choosen preach. That Jesus is the son of God. We have been choosing to.

He can teach, he can go my-my appointed. My my idea here, row, we christadelphians, we read the Bible, every day, we study, we read whole whole years every years, Holy Spirit, New Testament, to time and Old Testament one time this way. You mean, we know, About Bible would believe a Bible not the same different church.

But when it has growing It is larger than all the garden plant and becomes a tree. Small sees becoming Victory and Holabird, everybody have a shape enter.

28. 18:06

    So now, brother sister, I want to share with you some example for why small world our reward He came in believer, same us. First example is a brother James hand and the family and here and at addressed our future, seems hardly tell me someone who was working with him and invited him to the Bible seminar.

They Decide in a want continue and how he’s now ready? And he said he will tell me I’m not ready for the Bible knowledge of the Christian Life Style. So he left and after three years, He can connect with her brother, Greg and the brother of Tom and he went back to bible class.

30. 19:43

    But two months later, he and his wife, God, but look a brother-sister few work. We have a family here, rather hand and his family wife, and and kids.

31. 20:03

    And we are plus to have them with us. My second example, brother, sister is same money and Monica a couple from New Zealand, want to Tumblr and a mission. They come to Monica’s work, looking for a room to rent to run a Bible seminar. In the evening, because the seminar will be after our, they need someone like a door after done every day, so Monica stay and listen to the Samina.

32. 20:57

    And Monica you want to house and share with same money every day. What is a brother and sister talking about Bible? She said he’s talking through his teeth. People attacking the true about the Bible, he teach good. So after that seminar was done, they start Bible class every Friday for two years and Monica and Simoni got Baptist in 2014.

33. 21:37

    And now they are here with their kids at is a blessing, his Pleasant few world. He came in believer. Same us now, brother sister I talking about myself I have loved my God, since I was young, I want to Monastery to study so I can be a breeze. I need acid that they do not teach what the Bible say. I was sad.

34. 22:24

    I’m really sad. I go to study but he looks at what I believe that. Know what I read the Bible and only the same. You after I’m coming baptism you tell me read to time Old Testament one time. You know I read from beginning to end, I hear some time I read a maybe five-ten, I don’t know. I read it.

35. 22:47

    My my beautiful wife is. See me what she meant me. I read. Just read. What? I’ma try to sleep. I’m still, so, I believe I believe God, only one, and Jesus is the son of God, and holy spirit is a power. So So I left the Catholic church and coming to America. I want to different different churches to see which one.

36. 23:23

    Teach what the Bible say, suddenly I found no one. No one. I know I go a lot. Every Sunday, any church or SE church? I go and talk to here. No one this way. Enter, I met my beautiful wife Norma. So this is a funny part. Everybody won’t go dead, but hey, he go to a stronger or first date.

37. 23:56

    Was going to receive the meeting. Okay, thank you. Yes, he’s funny. So I’m happy. I I hear what. It’s what’s processes and everybody is he said, Son and reading. And but what he’s done, I’m very sad to I look at to my wife and she’s not my wife before I do.

38. 24:29

    I wanna ask you something, I’m a Christian. Why not give you one braid? She said we have a root here. You have to be study here and have to baptism after we give you. So I waiting few minutes after I said, Okay I want ask you something before. I start the car we and insert a card.

And another brother he teach me about Bible so almost 20 years, I got.

41. 25:56

    But how do you see my brother system? I’m here. My wife made her one. Here we have a glass at the church. So brother-sister, all of us, James Simon, myself, become a Believer from here, a little word, from someone who preached to us, Directly or net Direction, a tiny world, just like the master sees, which become a big tree and or family or here with us growing together.

42. 26:45

    And that true brother sister follow me, too. Jeremiah chapter 17 verse 7 and 8. Jeremiah he said, last is the main who trusts in the Lord whose trust in the Lord, he is like a tree planted by you water and same. What? What German I say, same David and someone first. Verse 3. He said, come with me to some one person three rather sister. And he said he is like a tree planted by river. So, a brother sister.

43. 27:50

    This? Why Old Testament is saying? And as I said before, we are being choosing just like Paul to preach the true. Which is. Then Jesus is a son of God. So, and every Sunday that we eat the bread and we drink the wine, we remember.

44. 28:26

    Son of God, Jesus who dying from us and he is alive now, forever and ever. We believe this. And so we can fill the Ferguson. We feel happy, we fill glass.
