00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:03,840
Hello

2
00:00:27,620 --> 00:00:39,700
ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the hope and the Lord. I'm Reverend Joseph your host and with me today is Rosa Owens, my co-host and I thank you for watching our broadcast today.

3
00:00:39,700 --> 00:00:49,580
When something is said about somebody, a lot of times they use different phrases and this

4
00:00:49,580 --> 00:00:57,520
phrase is very popular and when you think about this phrase that I'm going to say automatically

5
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:07,100
you would think of a person, king of, and what would come to your mind, well maybe would

6
00:01:07,100 --> 00:01:13,960
king of rock and roll, Elvis Presley. You talked a little

7
00:01:13,960 --> 00:01:17,320
Richard about that and he'd say, no, no, no, no, no. Elvis

8
00:01:17,320 --> 00:01:23,700
wasn't the king. I'm the king. And then you go to basketball and

9
00:01:25,180 --> 00:01:33,280
the king is Lebron James. So we relate when words to different type

10
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:42,640
people. Well, when the Bible, King of, is a King of Salem, and his name is Melchesida. And nobody

11
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:47,540
knows anything about them. He just kind of like existed. They don't know his mother. They

12
00:01:47,540 --> 00:01:55,920
don't know his father. But Abraham knew of him in the spirit realm. And those of you who don't

13
00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:01,380
understand the Bible aren't born again, you won't understand what I'm going to say next. Those

14
00:02:01,380 --> 00:02:08,600
of you who have knowledge of the Bible, you'll understand that Melchezadak was a type of

15
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:17,800
Christ. He was a high priest. And what Abraham did is, whenever Abraham got spoils,

16
00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:26,360
he besides being a man who was a father of faith, he was also a warrior. And he rescued

17
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:36,080
his nephew Lot, and they got all these goods, and he gave 10% of the goods a tie to

18
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:37,280
McKessor that.

19
00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:40,600
So he was the king of Salem.

20
00:02:41,620 --> 00:02:49,640
There's one king of the whole universe, and he is the king of kings, and this name is Jesus

21
00:02:49,640 --> 00:02:50,120
Christ.

22
00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:52,620
He's the Lord of Lords.

23
00:02:53,660 --> 00:02:56,240
There's kings around the world.

24
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:01,420
He's greater than any of those kings because he's God.

25
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:06,860
And the kings that people say are kings who are on the throne,

26
00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:12,660
LeBron James, Elvis Presley, a little Richard,

27
00:03:12,820 --> 00:03:15,280
and you can go into any field.

28
00:03:15,540 --> 00:03:20,620
You can go into the arch industry.

29
00:03:20,620 --> 00:03:27,740
you could go into the fashion industry, you can go into the stylist industry and they'll all have

30
00:03:27,740 --> 00:03:35,540
somebody who they look to as the king. But the king of kings, the Lord Jesus, created every

31
00:03:35,540 --> 00:03:43,520
one of those human kings. A matter of fact, on the cross, when he was butchered and killed and he

32
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:50,440
allowed these Roman soldiers to do it, the creation who hung on the cross, like a piece of meat,

33
00:03:50,440 --> 00:04:00,880
to die for your sins and my sins, who said, forgive him, what happened there was he was

34
00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:07,360
the creator and he let the creation kill them. That's the love of God that you need to

35
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:12,780
know in a personal way, like our guest today. Rose, were you pleased in Bruce, I guess?

36
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:18,420
Yes, Jerry Antimati, welcome. How are you today? Pretty good. So Jerry, you know these

37
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:24,980
King's, but you didn't know him back then, growing up, were you raised in the Word of God, did

38
00:04:24,980 --> 00:04:25,780
you go to church?

39
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:26,520
No.

40
00:04:26,940 --> 00:04:36,080
I used to maybe once a year I used to go to Catholic church for Easter and I didn't know

41
00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:37,560
of Christ really.

42
00:04:38,420 --> 00:04:41,260
You didn't know the way you know him today.

43
00:04:41,260 --> 00:04:49,040
So what happened throughout your life, like in middle school, did you have any problems?

44
00:04:49,620 --> 00:04:56,680
Oh yeah, when I was in middle school, I was a soldier for the enemy.

45
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:58,160
In middle school?

46
00:04:58,280 --> 00:04:58,980
In middle school.

47
00:04:59,540 --> 00:05:02,380
So did you go up with your mom and dad?

48
00:05:03,060 --> 00:05:05,600
I had an absentee father.

49
00:05:07,280 --> 00:05:10,900
I had a mother that, you know,

50
00:05:10,900 --> 00:05:18,860
So, as you know, if your mother is not the priest of the house, you know, I just neglect

51
00:05:18,860 --> 00:05:26,940
it, her advice, so you get yourself into situations at a young age.

52
00:05:28,060 --> 00:05:28,580
That's not enough.

53
00:05:29,180 --> 00:05:29,260
Wow.

54
00:05:29,260 --> 00:05:34,480
Without having a father, it must have really hurt you.

55
00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:45,660
And it probably caused you to look to other maybe older young men that were older to get

56
00:05:45,660 --> 00:05:48,800
your mentoring and that's what happened to you, sir.

57
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,500
Yes, I felt it's about it.

58
00:05:51,660 --> 00:06:00,680
Well, if you just said, most of my friends, back then, were guys that were doing demonic things

59
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:08,840
because I didn't have any father at home to take me to church and to speak to me about the Lord.

60
00:06:09,340 --> 00:06:15,360
So my friends were guys that were in the park with gangsters, guys that would deal in drugs,

61
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:24,100
guys that spend most of their time playing C-LO and doing all the wrong things.

62
00:06:24,100 --> 00:06:31,680
And I didn't know, I didn't know right from wrong, so I was following those evil spirits.

63
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,000
So did you feel comforting that?

64
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,660
Did you feel like you belonged somewhere?

65
00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:48,260
Yes, they, they are, you know, the enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy.

66
00:06:48,260 --> 00:06:54,920
So they make you think that the wrong things that you're doing were right, you know, showing

67
00:06:54,920 --> 00:07:03,060
you, you can make money selling drugs and, and doing robberies and stuff like that, that,

68
00:07:03,420 --> 00:07:05,520
that, you know, you can make a lot of money.

69
00:07:06,280 --> 00:07:09,420
So the things that were in high school?

70
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:11,060
Yes.

71
00:07:11,980 --> 00:07:20,320
And in fact, in Afgrade, they gave me it's a difficult, and I didn't even graduate from

72
00:07:21,100 --> 00:07:22,060
middle school.

73
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,480
So when I got to high school,

74
00:07:27,580 --> 00:07:30,620
I started doing the same things, I started hanging out with

75
00:07:30,620 --> 00:07:38,280
the wrong people, the teachers and guidance counselors came in my mother and told them, look

76
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:38,800
at your son.

77
00:07:38,980 --> 00:07:40,440
He's hanging out with the wrong people.

78
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:47,940
So at that that was the red flag and you know I didn't I didn't listen to

79
00:07:48,580 --> 00:07:54,800
until the teacher saw the mother your mom you didn't listen to your mom of course that's that's correct

80
00:07:55,260 --> 00:08:06,560
When when you had this situation happen to you joining the gang or joining these you know older people and stuff like that

81
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:14,340
When you go home, like did your mother see something change within you, or did you kind of try to hide it?

82
00:08:14,340 --> 00:08:20,040
Because now you're getting involved and probably what's drinking, drug and other stuff?

83
00:08:20,660 --> 00:08:27,560
Did you hide it? Did your mother see it? Or how did that affect you when you went home when you started getting hurt?

84
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:45,340
and my mother smelled the beer and the marijuana on me, she saw that and started screaming and, of course, when you're high, you don't pay that no attention and, you know, I didn't pay it, no attention.

85
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:55,680
You know, the word of God says, those that seek wise counsel, the wise wise people, and I didn't see that at that time.

86
00:08:55,680 --> 00:08:57,940
Did you have any siblings?

87
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,320
Yes, I have a daughter.

88
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,520
Do you have any sisters or brothers?

89
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:04,520
Yes.

90
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,560
Five, five sisters and three brothers.

91
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:09,540
They didn't get into the same thing, did they?

92
00:09:10,940 --> 00:09:12,540
No, no, no.

93
00:09:13,380 --> 00:09:16,180
I have two brothers that passed the way.

94
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:18,720
I really didn't have that.

95
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,460
Like I said, that man mentor.

96
00:09:22,780 --> 00:09:28,800
So, you were seeking for the mentoring and you found that in these gangs.

97
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:33,700
Now, a lot of people say, like, go smoking marijuana, it's no big deal.

98
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,600
You know, the human, many states legalize marijuana.

99
00:09:36,780 --> 00:09:37,980
What do you say to that?

100
00:09:38,220 --> 00:09:41,160
A lot of people think they need it just to calm down.

101
00:09:41,980 --> 00:09:42,000
No.

102
00:09:43,020 --> 00:09:50,820
Marijuana just makes you burns your brain and I remember, friend of mine, that was chromatose.

103
00:09:50,820 --> 00:09:57,840
after he smoked some marijuana with some other substance, you know, he just stood

104
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,880
Chroma toes for about an hour.

105
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,380
Yeah, plus it, that's just the beginning.

106
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:09,840
And you know, people who haven't smoked it, now will start smoking it.

107
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,820
And then after a while they'll say, it doesn't satisfy them.

108
00:10:12,820 --> 00:10:13,140
Thank you.

109
00:10:13,140 --> 00:10:14,980
So they'll go to Coke to go to heroin.

110
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,820
And you know, it's all about the,

111
00:10:17,820 --> 00:10:27,880
The system in this country is backwards and there's nothing that's wrong everything is okay by the law, and we

112
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:39,460
That's why we see a decay of morality in our country the way it is now what in these wrong people did you ever get go to jail because of what that?

113
00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:41,700
Yes, when I was

114
00:10:41,700 --> 00:10:44,140
16 years old

115
00:10:44,140 --> 00:10:44,660
friend

116
00:10:44,660 --> 00:10:47,140
friend of mine's that was

117
00:10:47,820 --> 00:10:48,600
You know,

118
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:52,180
I don't know how I explained it.

119
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:56,180
He was a person that would rob people.

120
00:10:56,840 --> 00:11:00,800
And then, yeah, I don't know if you've ever heard this phrase before,

121
00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:04,640
he would say, if you're going to go to jail, go to jail for something big.

122
00:11:05,300 --> 00:11:12,760
So we went and together and we caught Jack, a guy,

123
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:18,640
sorry, I'm nervous, I've been thinking about this because it bothered me.

124
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:29,380
So, you know, we called Jack a guy and, you know, we went and we did a robbery and I got

125
00:11:29,380 --> 00:11:35,920
caught and then got the gentleman that we robbed this car and we put him in the truck

126
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,020
then impressed any charges on us.

127
00:11:39,020 --> 00:11:50,260
So, I went to a youth detention facility in Vahala and I stayed there for like eight months.

128
00:11:51,480 --> 00:12:02,440
And when I came out, you know, instead of, you know, being rehabilitated and I had the opportunity to receive the word from the ministries.

129
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:06,180
they had there, I didn't take a vanage of that.

130
00:12:06,820 --> 00:12:12,000
So I came out and continued to serve the enemy.

131
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:13,980
Wow.

132
00:12:14,560 --> 00:12:17,520
You're so blessed because God was in this.

133
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:19,620
Because when you put somebody rose in the trunk.

134
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:21,100
When you kidnap someone, yeah.

135
00:12:21,100 --> 00:12:24,340
They're going to say, OK, they kidnap me on person charge.

136
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:25,140
Right, right.

137
00:12:25,140 --> 00:12:27,600
And that's going to be added on a lot more.

138
00:12:28,740 --> 00:12:31,580
So even though at their time,

139
00:12:31,580 --> 00:12:36,280
He didn't know that was a hand of God, but when you look back later, I'd share it.

140
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:41,980
He didn't know the hand of God, so how does this escalate your life of sin?

141
00:12:44,020 --> 00:12:58,040
Well, not until I was 46 when I went to a little small church on Soundview Avenue in the Bronx that I was delivering.

142
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:09,760
somebody invited me to church and I accepted the invitation and I gave my life to Jesus Christ.

143
00:13:10,140 --> 00:13:16,380
It's strange. Before that, I felt like that did it get worse to escalate drugs, gambling

144
00:13:16,380 --> 00:13:22,780
out the whole wheel. We're doing that women is very, very interesting. I'm glad you brought that up

145
00:13:22,780 --> 00:13:29,740
Because I went from tobacco, I worked for a tobacco company, I didn't realize what I was doing

146
00:13:29,740 --> 00:13:35,200
in people's life, but I was good money working with a tobacco company, I had people telling

147
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,720
me, you know, why are you giving out samples these things to killing people and they

148
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:40,800
given people cancer.

149
00:13:41,820 --> 00:13:52,760
So from there I went to a beer company, a bow-wiser, and I started drinking and doing

150
00:13:52,760 --> 00:14:00,600
promotions and hanging out with girls and breaking night and, you know, losing all my money

151
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:11,800
in the casinos and, you know, I lost my wife behind the casinos. You know, I gambled all

152
00:14:13,620 --> 00:14:19,020
rent money, you know, lost a car, you know, a hit rock bottom.

153
00:14:19,460 --> 00:14:22,320
Right. That's what happens. And by the way, besides

154
00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:25,920
them legalizing marijuana, they're going to legalize gambling.

155
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:30,320
Yes. It's going to the same thing. It's going to destroy people's lives.

156
00:14:30,700 --> 00:14:35,120
They're going to have a people who never gambled. Now it's going to be more.

157
00:14:35,460 --> 00:14:37,780
People that we're doing it illegally. Now I'm going to be

158
00:14:37,780 --> 00:14:41,600
and they're making your needs to do it from home.

159
00:14:41,940 --> 00:14:46,020
And it's going to affect lies where people are going to kill themselves.

160
00:14:46,420 --> 00:14:47,740
They're going to lose their homes.

161
00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:49,320
They're going to be divorced.

162
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,480
And it's all about getting money.

163
00:14:52,620 --> 00:14:52,780
Right.

164
00:14:53,060 --> 00:14:56,140
So we don't care as long as we get the money,

165
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,060
then it'll be okay.

166
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:12,120
And you're a perfect example of it. So all this stuff with the women with the gambling, with everything, you must have felt really peace inside, huh?

167
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:28,960
Well, that's the way the enemy makes you feel, you know, for the love of money, he makes you feel that there's love and there is none. When you see what you lose, behind the love of money, you lose it all.

168
00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:34,860
You lost your family. You lost everything. Did you lose your job?

169
00:15:35,620 --> 00:15:38,520
No, that was the only thing that God, I didn't lose.

170
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:51,840
I needed the job to always work hard after I got out of prison because I didn't want to go back.

171
00:15:51,840 --> 00:16:03,280
you know Satan comes to give glory for himself when he was with Jesus in the wilderness and he was

172
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:10,080
tempting Jesus he said listen bow down to me and I'll give you what all the kingdoms of

173
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:15,560
the world in other words I'll give you fame I'll give you money I'll give you power I'll give you

174
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:21,020
women I'll give you drugs whatever you want and now he's talking to the creator of the world

175
00:16:21,020 --> 00:16:23,100
I mean, how dumb is that?

176
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,080
I mean, Jesus created the world.

177
00:16:26,100 --> 00:16:26,280
Right.

178
00:16:26,900 --> 00:16:31,140
And when Adam and Eve send the keys went over to Satan.

179
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:33,380
So he's a wicked landlord.

180
00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:33,900
Yeah.

181
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:39,020
But Jesus is the owner of this world because he created it.

182
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,740
And Jesus said, that's your worship, the Lord thy God, only.

183
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:48,240
And finally, you got to a point where you know that, as you said earlier in the show,

184
00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:55,300
you were in the enemy's camp and you were worshiping him, now you finally realized Jerry that

185
00:16:55,300 --> 00:17:01,460
inside you, you were like dead men's bones, there was no life. And so when you came to Christ,

186
00:17:02,380 --> 00:17:11,180
how did it feel within compared to without Christ? Wow, just the first moment that I received

187
00:17:11,180 --> 00:17:18,480
Christ just started crying and, you know, I surrendered to him and he became my Lord in

188
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:28,520
Savior and just gave up all the God as a God of exchange. So I gave him all my words

189
00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:36,500
and he gave me his best. Did that happen right away, Javier? Was it a progress? It was a little

190
00:17:36,500 --> 00:17:43,300
process, you know, the past of one day spoke in five years, you're going to change the way

191
00:17:43,300 --> 00:17:50,380
you speak, the way you talk, and the people you have in your life. And you know, I, I, it was

192
00:17:50,380 --> 00:17:57,200
correct, you know, you prophesied that to me. Did anybody who was saved that shared their life

193
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:03,160
with you, were like you, that you could relate to? Definitely. And tell us about that.

194
00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:13,420
my pastor, my spiritual father. His testimony was when he was 15 years old, his father had

195
00:18:13,420 --> 00:18:22,440
him on alcohol and he was an alcoholic, a 15. And I heard that testimony that related to

196
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:31,000
me because I, he had a choice and he made a good choice. I've been to surrender his life

197
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:39,540
Christ, and I've made the wrong choice, I surrendered my life to the enemy, and that's why I ended up

198
00:18:40,540 --> 00:18:47,660
where I did. So you can relate to his testimony, and how God brought it in.

199
00:18:47,700 --> 00:19:00,980
Bring people together, bless that. Now, a lot of people, they say, oh, I'm so far gone and I

200
00:19:00,980 --> 00:19:07,560
you piece, you know, if you wait on him, he's going to give you the piece that he only gives.

201
00:19:08,380 --> 00:19:14,140
Would you say that your wife leaving you was the catalyst for you to say to realize I went to you,

202
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:16,260
I might you have lost.

203
00:19:17,740 --> 00:19:25,900
My daughter, I have in the daughter that that made me hit rock bottom because when you have a daughter,

204
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:33,540
you know, you want to be there, the father, the protector, you know, even when I wasn't,

205
00:19:34,980 --> 00:19:40,400
you know, didn't have that relationship with Christ yet, I knew it was a wrong thing

206
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,260
for me to not be there.

207
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:49,000
So, so even though, excuse me, you weren't religious court on quote, because you went to church

208
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:54,520
like once a year, like so many people do, maybe twice a year, maybe three times,

209
00:19:54,520 --> 00:20:03,540
Mother's Day, maybe Easter and Christmas, but here you are an individual who wasn't religious.

210
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:15,100
See, it's so hard to religious people who are sucked into the religion that they're born into, to break away from that demonic spirit.

211
00:20:15,100 --> 00:20:26,660
You know that it controls people, you know, and it kind of makes them miss the relationship with Jesus, which what he died for.

212
00:20:27,020 --> 00:20:37,260
And so basically, as rough as it was with your life growing up, it was easy for you to come to Christ because you didn't have religion in your mind.

213
00:20:37,260 --> 00:20:44,600
Yes, yes, and also when you realize that you empty then you have no choice by surrender because like you said

214
00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:48,220
Jared Jesus exchanges the good things for the bad things

215
00:20:48,220 --> 00:20:51,140
That's correct. So you developed a relationship with Jesus

216
00:20:51,140 --> 00:21:01,500
So what happened now after you got saved tell us about how God has led you in ministry and what you're doing now in ministry and how probably when you're

217
00:21:01,940 --> 00:21:04,300
When you're 16 years old

218
00:21:04,300 --> 00:21:06,020
Right in a bank robbery

219
00:21:06,020 --> 00:21:12,180
Right? Never thought that you would be what you are today, and your wildest dreams, right?

220
00:21:12,360 --> 00:21:19,300
Thank you. I never thought I would be evangelizing, you know, the youth in prison,

221
00:21:19,460 --> 00:21:25,120
given them my testimony. So you're going back into the prison that you were as a youth

222
00:21:25,540 --> 00:21:29,400
and sharing your testimony to them. Are you a chaplain?

223
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:44,480
That's correct. 40 years later, you know, I became a chaplain and I'm preaching the word in prisons, you know, going out feeding the homeless, visiting people in hospitals.

224
00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:56,860
It just gives me such a joy to give the good news of Jesus Christ to those that are lost and to know that so many people need this good news.

225
00:21:56,860 --> 00:22:02,100
Have you started a ministry yourself and what about what's that about?

226
00:22:02,420 --> 00:22:03,480
Okay, bike for Christ.

227
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:09,860
We started, you know, actually three years, God gave me the vision.

228
00:22:11,580 --> 00:22:14,540
And I was waiting for sponsors to help me.

229
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:17,720
Nobody, you know, nobody gave me the sponsorship.

230
00:22:18,460 --> 00:22:19,500
So I left it alone.

231
00:22:19,500 --> 00:22:25,120
And then recently last year, I got encouraged, God says,

232
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,160
no, I actually would do this.

233
00:22:27,420 --> 00:22:30,520
So I brought the, the, the shirts myself,

234
00:22:30,700 --> 00:22:32,020
bikes for Christ.

235
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:33,620
That's what says bikes for Christ?

236
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:35,600
Motorcycle bikes?

237
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:36,840
No, regular bicycles.

238
00:22:37,060 --> 00:22:39,320
Regular, you're going to go to wheel that we learned

239
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:40,520
when we were just children.

240
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:41,020
Exactly.

241
00:22:41,460 --> 00:22:45,780
So you have grown men, assuming and women also.

242
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:46,980
That's a family.

243
00:22:46,980 --> 00:22:49,520
on these bicycles would vice-recrises.

244
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:50,820
That's so cool.

245
00:22:51,120 --> 00:22:51,620
That's correct.

246
00:22:51,940 --> 00:22:53,780
About 15 churches are involved.

247
00:22:54,180 --> 00:22:57,200
We ride and we give out tracks,

248
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:01,120
and we give out bibles, and whenever we have an opportunity,

249
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:08,860
we put out a prayer table, and we pray for those areas that need God.

250
00:23:09,460 --> 00:23:10,880
How often do you do that?

251
00:23:11,120 --> 00:23:14,860
We try to get together about twice a month.

252
00:23:14,860 --> 00:23:20,680
like what's responsible for that? Well it's been amazing to everyone that sees the the

253
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:26,040
the shirts they they know that were followers of Christ and they were saying how can we join

254
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:32,880
this ministry because you know we want to get involved in serving Christ. Do you have a number or

255
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:39,960
something or email address that you could give over the now for the people to maybe they could call

256
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:50,960
May 917-687-547-1, and you know, everyone is welcome to serve, you know, enrollment is free.

257
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:58,980
So, what do you say to those people, Jerry, that they might know the word of God, yet they're not serving Him.

258
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:04,720
They're not totally surrender to Him. They say, I know the word of God. Yet, you know, they go the wrong way.

259
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:10,500
They drink, they smoke marijuana, what do you say to those young men or young women?

260
00:24:11,460 --> 00:24:19,140
First, we have to know that you have to put away your own to be new creature in Christ.

261
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,200
And it took me a little bit of time.

262
00:24:22,340 --> 00:24:25,700
You know, I had to submit.

263
00:24:25,700 --> 00:24:27,140
You have to submit to God.

264
00:24:27,900 --> 00:24:29,680
And he will show us the way.

265
00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:34,480
Just like Paul did, he's no longer I will live it, but Christ, they live it in me.

266
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:39,820
So once we know the Lord, we are new creation in him and we have to pursue it.

267
00:24:40,020 --> 00:24:40,700
That's correct.

268
00:24:41,120 --> 00:24:41,340
Praise God.

269
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:49,780
And when your mom, now your mom, basically, she wasn't really serving the Lord.

270
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:55,840
And did she come to faith in the Lord after maybe your salvation?

271
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,520
Because I'm sure she saw a different journey.

272
00:24:58,520 --> 00:24:59,500
Yeah, absolutely.

273
00:24:59,780 --> 00:25:01,300
Did she come to faith in the Lord?

274
00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:02,860
What's nice about that, yeah?

275
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:10,440
When my mom saw the change in me, she got uplifted.

276
00:25:11,140 --> 00:25:14,800
And she says, man, I got to see why Jerry's on fire

277
00:25:15,460 --> 00:25:18,620
for every day now, every day, every day.

278
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:23,040
So she became a member of the church,

279
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,040
and she gave her life to Jesus Christ.

280
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:39,200
You know, I just came from a men's weekend retreat and one of the guests we had on Robert and Gwendo was the speaker and one of the things Robert said and he was a heroin addict for 12 years

281
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:44,060
You know, and he said, you know at the end he just didn't he got her when he shot

282
00:25:44,660 --> 00:25:48,320
Not to get high just to get up and to go to sleep and this is what he said

283
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:55,860
out of all the stuff that I've done the greatest high that I've ever had

284
00:25:56,040 --> 00:26:03,160
is the Holy Spirit in my life and Jesus Christ running, ruling my life. There's no greater

285
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,000
height. Can you relate to that church?

286
00:26:05,120 --> 00:26:13,040
Oh, it's been one of the greatest journeys in my life, serving, serving Christ with passion.

287
00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:23,640
Because He's afflicted my spirit, my mind, my body. He's doing so many things in my area, my neighbors.

288
00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:29,760
I'm sharing the good news and it's something that's unbelievable.

289
00:26:30,060 --> 00:26:32,240
Words can't describe how good God is.

290
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:36,960
And you're still working and sharing the gospel as you work.

291
00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:45,480
I know today, if you're working in a place and you're talking about Jesus, they hear Jesus and you're fired.

292
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:51,680
But you could talk about anything you want, you could talk about Buddha, you could talk about Muhammad,

293
00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:58,460
you could talk about, you could talk about cursing, lying, screaming, but yet they went to hear the

294
00:26:58,460 --> 00:27:05,360
name of Jesus, the one that loved them and died for their sins. It's like you're speaking about

295
00:27:05,360 --> 00:27:10,820
hell, you know, and in your work are you in or you travel in your work, sir?

296
00:27:11,060 --> 00:27:18,140
Oh, definitely. I work for a beverage company, so it gives me honor to work with various restaurants

297
00:27:18,140 --> 00:27:26,940
and just the way I talk and and walk they know that I'm a file of Christ and it gives me

298
00:27:26,940 --> 00:27:33,340
great joy when a person tells me pray for my restaurant. Pray for my family. Pray for this

299
00:27:33,340 --> 00:27:41,200
area you know which which gives me a lot of joy knowing that you know it's Christ I give them all

300
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,520
Lord, because he's the one.

301
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:44,240
Amen.

302
00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:45,040
Thank you, Jerry.

303
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:46,320
With a Christ of Monkeys.

304
00:27:46,340 --> 00:27:46,760
Amen.

305
00:27:47,580 --> 00:27:48,560
Thank you, Brother Jerry.

306
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:49,840
Thank you.

307
00:27:50,020 --> 00:27:52,440
Well, Brother Jerry was talking about the King.

308
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,240
The King that can change everything.

309
00:27:57,620 --> 00:28:03,000
There are kings in the world, rulers, presidents, people in high places that want to change things

310
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:05,860
and a lot of times they can and a lot of times they can.

311
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:10,980
But the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, Jesus Christ can and will
