And you can't share peace if you don't have peace.

And 1 of the best things that you can do with your time if you've not yet attended the Peace School is to attend it.

A number of years ago when Peace started, I actually helped starting peace with Adam Ramden and the North England Conference.

Adam was a Bible worker way back in my church in the States, and he did his first evangelistic campaign also in 1 of my local churches.

And it's been great to see Pastor Ramden just grow and then into leading an evangelism school, which I led the amazing FACS Center, Evangelism Center for 5 and a half years before I did my current job.

So Peace, the curriculum of Peace is excellent, the teachers are excellent, you really have a jewel here and your conference here is solid behind Peace And I believe that there's going to be even expanded influence.

What I'd like to see with peace is have a health school along with peace.

So you could learn some of the things I've been teaching you there at peace.

But you can't have the missing piece if you haven't had the first piece So if you have not attended peace I will give you no peace until you Consider that as well like I said In the states.

I run a school Called health Health Evangelism and Leadership Training for Him.

We attempt to help people not only learn a cycle of evangelism for the local church, but of health evangelism.

When I was the director of the amazing FACT Center of Evangelism, consider here's a circle, I was teaching people how to reach about 10% of that pie chart, those who are already interested in prophecy.

But when I started the health school, I realized that we had touch points with the other 90% of the circle, because almost everybody has a health concern or knows somebody that do.

And so The issue is reaching out with both of those, both the practical and the prophetic.

Those who attend our school get in shape themselves.

This is a picture of my phone and my app.

I've gone now over 2, 000 miles running, walking as a part of the program.

And my memory has improved, my strength has improved, my stamina has improved.

I got to be able to keep up with my kids.

I have a 5-year-old, I have an 8-year-old, a 10-year-old, and a 13-year-old.

And my wife And I need to stay in health or We're going to be in trouble This is we mar.

This is part of the view that we see every day as I'm running there up the hill.

This is the teacher of our, 1 of our classes, the Western Treatment of, the Lifestyle Treatment of Western Disease, Dr.

He uses his book proof positive, but he's writing a new book that's an update on that book and he covers all the science as well there and Excellent material and we have people that are lay people on also medical students and medical doctors come just for that class alone.

People's arteries clearing up and people's minds clearing up.

We cover Many things in terms of the religion and health as it relates to science a lot of the things I've been covering We're able to go more in depth there.

We have amazing results within our community.

You know sometimes you come from a culture That's meat eating coffee drinking Dope smoking whatever it is, and we see people radically change.

This guy was from a Tongan background and Polynesian background.

He came with hypertension, he came with diabetes, he came with gastro-ensophageal reflux disorder, He came with morbid obesity with a Buckle his his waist was 57 inches 335 pounds he was in depression naturally with all that But as he came through the program His blood pressure normalized his blood sugar normalized his last 7 inches off his belt during the program.

He no longer had the gastroesophageal reflux disorder.

He's going to all the Polynesian churches and he's dealing with all the adults that have had health issues and whatnot that now are dying in their 40s and late 40s and early 50s and he's saying look here's the way to reverse things and they're listening to him.

Adults will listen to youth, they don't usually listen to other adults.

And you have a purpose, and your purpose, 1 of them, is to have optimal physical, emotional, mental and spiritual health yourself and go back and share that with your parents and others in your churches.

How many of you believe they need that message?

I hire students every year that are interns from my school and then I send them around to other churches and they do greater things than I could ever do.

They go places I could never go, they go around the world and it's exciting to see what people do that graduate from peace, that graduate from health and such schools.

Okay so, what is this nation's largest health problem?

Cigarette smoking, some say, that's the statistics, obesity, alcohol, suicide, many of these things afflict even young people, but is that the largest problem of this nation?

Not able to speak for the Lord at the appropriate time?

Chocolate, someone says chocolate is the church's largest problem, diabetes.

No, actually the largest problem is that they're called Seventh Day Adventists, and Adventist means the return or appearing of Christ, but Christ has not yet returned.

The problem in the world and the problem in the church are the same.

The church and the world, the Adventist church and the world, the problem they have is that Jesus has not returned.

This is Ellen White, an early Adventist pioneer, speaking about this.

I saw that the time for Jesus to be in the most holy place was merely finished, and that time can last only but a little longer, very little longer.

1856, an angel told her that the Adventist attending the conference that year, some would be food for worms, some subjects for the 7 last plagues, Some will be alive and remain on the earth to be translated at the coming of Jesus.

Jesus was about to come, but why are we then still here?

This is what she said, Time is short, the day is at hand, things must shortly be done, but what happened?

Many of the 1844 Adventists delayed the Lord's return because they gave up their faith after the great disappointment.

And then they went to places like California for the gold rush.

And they tried to focus on the things the world has to offer.

Because it's evident Jesus is not coming.

But don't get too serious because you really just need to make a living.

Ellen White then speaking about it had this to say.

For 40 years did unbelief, murmuring, and rebellion shut out ancient Israel from the land of Canaan.

The same sins that have delayed the entrance of modern Israel into the heavenly Canaan.

Do you know what 1 of the major sins was in the wilderness?

It was unbelief, but how was it manifested?

They wanted to eat and drink like the Egyptians.
