Ellie sister Rachel sister Anna Abby and sister Abby and sister Anna how toell as well all of them Lord be with them all ask call these things in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ amen all right so God bless you all I'm going to go to the live now so uh going put things together one thing I found in life is that uh sometimes we get nervous in life we are setting up things and we worry that uh maybe the um way that we do something where the people will see us moving something around and we only want to show them the uh the easy parts of it or the uh I only want to show you guys me talking I don't want to show you guys moving the camera around or whatever but that doesn't matter it really doesn't matter so you guys can ask whatever questions you want um I've already kicked off someone from the live so uh we're Christians guys we are supposed to be different from the rest of but um I'm going to go through these questions or actually I have a couple scriptures to start out that I want to go through was reading Philippians today my dad and I read our Bible at the same time it was really nice I want to start doing that from now on and this is how I you know feel about sister Julie and I and our family and the whole thing Philippians chapter 1 verse one Paul and timotheus the Servants of Jesus Christ to all the saints in Christ Jesus which which are Philippi with the Bishops and deacons Grace be unto you and peace from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ I thank my God upon every remembrance of you always in every prayer of mine for you all making requests with joy thank God upon every remembrance of them of course and uh sorry I got a text and you know we have a responsibility as Christians that regardless of how people would treat us we're Christians and uh lowy like to set up way more than usual well my brother does have a architecture degree and other stuff like that so he's he's got a lot better setup sense than I do actually um and there's another scripture as well that is Philippians chapter 4 verse 8 or verse 7 or I'll start verse six be careful for nothing but in everything by prayer and supplication with Thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God and the peace let's see the peace of God which passeth all understanding shall keep keep your hearts and Minds through Christ Jesus finally Brethren whatsoever things are true whatsoever things are honest whatsoever things are just whatsoever things are pure whatsoever things are lovely whatsoever things are of a good report if there be any virtue and if there be any praise think on these things I know both how to be not that it's speak respect of want verse 11 not that I speak in respect of want for I have learned in whatsoever State I am therewith to be content I know both how to be abased and I know how to abound everywhere and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry both to abound and to suffer need I can do all things through Christ with strengtheneth me and believe that and we want to do things the way God wants us to and whether you're in a relationship you or not we want to still be the way God wants us to Sister amariah Watkins asks David do you think it's respectful to use your social platform to talk about truly and what happened between you guys no I don't which is why I haven't and I'm not going to and if anybody says anything negative about her I'll remove you from the live already said that um and uh let's see David do you think it's appropriate to talk about your and Julie's breakup on your social platform that's low-key disrespectful to her well sister I certainly disagree with your uh with your point and I'd love to see a scripture or a quote proving that if it's supposed to be a a thing that um is true people have all sorts of opinions and uh I'm a happy guy I am very happy and I have nothing but great things to say about truly in her family they're an Incredible family um and uh you know what you should do if you ever get a chance you should go over to the Greer's house and you should uh eat you should have sister Kimberly cook you some uh cook you some bread and some of the soup first time I ever met them they made that for me it was amazing you need too it's really good and uh sister Julie made some french bread for me one time it was really good it was with Simon raisin bread it was it was delicious it was it was amazing and uh was it was just awesome just awesome also brother yeah but they're they're an amazing family and anyone that meets them is very very l lucky and it's an honor and a privilege to know them so I got some questions to go through it should be fun Lord willing on things the way God wants me to and uh so there's a lot of questions that came in and I'm going to do my best to answer them I want to be a Son of God and I want to do things go is why did you guys break up and the way that I would say that is is that the any reason why any couple would break up is that I believe that if someone is truly meant for each other no disagreement no argument no circumstance no action if they're truly meant for each other we'll separate them but if you're not meant for each other it doesn't mean that either person is a bad person it means you just it's not a good fit and there was a situation where neither of us was going to change a certain thing and we both weren't going to continue unless the other person changed a certain thing neither of us were willing to so just couldn't continue and I had an incredible time I was awesome being with her she's going to make a guy so so lucky someday it's going to be you know it's going to be awesome and one of the other questions was that came in was uh if you and jell Julie aren't together anymore why are the lives of you up or why are the two lives that you guys did up because it was a fun time and those lives weren't just of Julie and they weren't just of me there were of other other people too we're having a ton of fun I had so much fun I remember for Julie's birthday party they made a uh they made a um they made this uh this chicken buffalo sauce dip with cream cheese and stuff I think Julie made it it was divine it was so good and it was delicious man it was so good Amar Watkins says I'm pretty sure she broke up with you well I see what I said about being Mutual I say it in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and uh I I uh I say it in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ mean it with all my heart and soul and uh and as far as how serious I am with what I was saying I put my hand on the Bible and say it CU I don't lie about those things I say things directly and I will not lie I won't do any of those things so when I said was Mutual I said it in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and I'll take it into the Rapture and through all eternity I won't change that so my mom says what did your and Julie's relationship teach you about courting what did it teach me well Tom and sister Julia and sister Kimberly are really good cooks for what and uh and our sister Julia's Church brother wesard deal is a song liter so that's really good for them um and uh also what tomm me is that I when it comes to my relationships I need to take my time more I need to pray more need to be more dedicated to God and uh other things of course there always things to learn in the relationship but I also learn what an amazing young lady what an amazing young lady uh sister Julie is and I learned what an amazing family the Greers are and uh they're just incredible I remember uh a lot of really good memories another thing it taught me about courting is that uh if you really like somebody it doesn't matter how far away they are you know traveling 4 hours wasn't the precious thing if you really do care about somebody then uh then you will do everything you can and uh I'm a Son of God what I say I mean and when I say something I mean it with all my heart and I put a lot of praying into it and uh I will not allow the devil to I have to say something in the way that the way that I did these lives starting out I was wrong I was not all all the way correct I let too much of the world come in and I uh I didn't um do it as well as I could have and I'm sorry I'm doing my best I want these lives not to be a place for people to troll or whatever I want it to be a spiritually edifying experience you know why I bring preachers on it's to help because I know brother uh brother Jack Duff or brother Bob black or brother Trevor Eman they have a ton more wisdom than I do they know a lot more than there speak of the devil there we go brother Trevor why did I bring brother Trevor on he has a lot more wisdom than I I do and what I would say to anybody is I don't care what the circumstances are in any relationship don't you ever say anything negative about anyone that you ever with ever but the B said if you don't can't say something nice don't say anything at all speak of the Angel yeah you're not the devil you're the angel brother Trevor I'm sorry I also learned that uh because I got to go to a church um in Georgia and hear Brother Paul durkon preach and I got to talk to him when him and I got to talk we talked for an hour and a half straight we never met and uh everything from tapes and preaching to the godhead and it was amazing and so uh it was one of the most enjoyable conversations I've ever had um and I also got to you know sing devil were through for the people there and uh also further Trevor uh brother Paul said that you guys call each other Rabbi Rabbi Trevor Rabbi Paul when you guys talk to each other I got to learn you know that this message is the most powerful thing in the world there's nothing more powerful there's no situation past reconciling there's no event past mending there's no relationship past mending end in God does things his way and I when I went to sing devil through I said it's just amazing how you can go to a church filled with people you've never met and still feel at home because you are with people that love you and you love them because you are sons of God and Daughters of God in the message for the Trevor em says yeah my first time preaching there we sat there looking at quotes and such for like eight hours so I said we were like a couple rabbis yeah I would have sat with him for for that long too brother the Trevor but I had to go I had to drive 4 hours home and it was like 8:00 at night so um David I'll buy your shirt if you sign it okay if you really want to it's $500 um how do you know if someone okay that's a good question that was one of the questions that came in how do you know if someone has the Holy Ghost well brother brandham said that one of the evidences of the Holy Ghost is that you accept the word for your day and also uh brother Trevor and I actually went through this and he gave some great answers so both louiso and so both Bob black about evidences of the Holy Ghost and uh one thing I would say is an Evidence of the Holy Ghost is that you have a peace that passes all understanding and it's not always that you feel like you're always against everybody and everybody's always against you Holy Ghost is God himself in you the Holy Ghost is the Zeal of the hour to say I was wrong the Holy Ghost is the ability and the the the uh the desire to look past someone's faults and to uh pray for them and to look them through God's eyes Holy Ghost is God himself in you he doesn't he doesn't contradict his own word the Holy Ghost is power in control the Holy Ghost changes you so that you don't Feast on the things of the world it changes you to where the music or the things of the world that you enjoy aren't things that you enjoy to where it can't feed you but rather you uh it justes do feed you as well the other as like the other things do and where you have a desire for God the Holy Ghost is when you're more concerned with reconciliation than name calling gossip or throwing someone under the bus reconciliation is peace and uh to know you have the Holy Ghost let's say one of the main things is that you your whole life changes from what you were you change you're a different person you're a new person and you're softer and you're nice that's the Holy Ghost and the Holy Ghost will always agree with the word and the Holy Ghost proves their life and proves their actions and their words by the word of God and brother brandham said the Holy Ghost will always punct well the Holy Ghost will punctuate every word of God with an amen but if you tell them the word of God or you ask them about where is that in the scriptures they'll say n that's was for another day that's for another day I would say if someone evidence of the Holy Ghost Sayes that you live your life by the word of God and if you're corrected by your pastor you're corrected by the word of God you change and you brother bham said renounce your feelings one of the many evidences of the Holy Ghost I would say is being able to renounce your feelings and that clip from Brother the Paul antain is just so good my feelings are not God God is God our feelings are not truth God's word is truth it doesn't matter what our feelings are if it contradicts God's word it's not truth it's not truth it's a life and in the pits of hell and if we if you can't recognize a lie from the pits of hell I don't think you have the Holy Ghost um there's a question that came in here that's great David for sister Natalie P says that's great David well thank you sister nle I said another evidence of the Holy Ghost says no matter how bad someone treats you you still want to treat him right no matter how bad someone would persecute you and try to destroy destroy your name if you still only want the best for them and you don't want to throw them under the bus at all that's the Holy Ghost um my mom asks David how did you know you how did you know you needed God for the first time in your life well I didn't really have a moment like that I had some great preaching and I've had mom I've had God in my life my whole life because of the amazing parenting from you and Dad the best gift you can give your kids is to stay together and to be consistent and to be Christians and my parents gave me that uh someone says can you give some advice on how a real man treats a woman well he treats her according to what the word of God says treats her with respect and when he's strong he says he was sorry and that he was wrong and he provides for her and he leads because it's his off office and he no matter what and he also a good way to treat someone a woman too is stand your ground on the word of God because they'll respect you for it don't fold to everything they want best way to treat a woman is to be honest with her because if I have friends that just tell me oh you're so amazing oh you're so wonderful oh you're the greatest guy ever and if I told him something terrible that happen they uh hold on let gather my thoughts again um I forgot exactly what I was saying but the person that asked how should you treat a woman well person how do you think you should treat a woman and put that in the comments you tell me how should you treat a woman um another thing is uh I forgot what I was saying it's fine I got a lot of my mind I got not going to lie questions I'll be right back all right hold on guys with respect that's a good answer jiah treat good treat a girl with respect that is a good answer also you treat her as unto the Lord what's up Jesse how's it going um someone asked dating advice how do I know if she's the one I've asked someone for their hand in marriage several times she says no but remains adamant we remains adamant we date I need help so if you keep on asking to marry you and she says no but says no let's just date instead um I would say uh I'd say ask her pastor for starters and there someone really wanted me to know um it's anonymous question so I'd say if you've asked for their hand hand a marriage several times uh well thank you Jesse it's my brother-in-law's uh room he's an architecture are his drawings in the back he's he's a really smart guy so if she says no a bunch of times to you marrying her I would say it's it's depending on how long you've been dating if it's been just a couple months then wait wait but if it's been four or 5 years it's time to climb or get off the ladder you know um whatever the saying is so if you've been dating for 3 or 4 years or whatever and your life is in order and her life is in order and you are out of debt so is she you have a good job you can provide if you're in position to get married you have a relationship with your pastor have your relationship with your parents you have a relationship with her parents you have a relationship with everybody and everything is straightforward then you can then I maybe get their uh I maybe get the ADV I maybe probably bring Pastors in i' bring your pastor and her pastor in on it what's up Mel welcome to the live so bring in her pastor bring in your pastor and say hey look we've been uh David where are you I'm in my brother-in-law's Studio or his room his office rather so you you know you ask the girl you get your pastor and her pastor and say look we've been dating for 4 years we are good on finances um we're out of debt we are we're getting along we're dating for a long time and I've been asking her she's won't do it and I just don't understand where we're supposed to go here that's what I would do and I think that's what a pastor would say as well so Josiah MCL how's it going which I guess I answered with saying ask your pastor it was a little bit different I'd say also um Josiah David says and when she's wrong she's right and when you're right she's still right well as far as a uh a joke that's a funny joke but as far as life God's word is truth I'm not right the other girl's not right God's word is what's right relationship advice already well they asked me the question so I'll give an answer and I'll tell you what if I quote Alexander the Great on things of a war is what I'm saying correct i' say this all right let me go through these uh questions here I don't know guys questions thoughts comments concerns uh I have some other random um thoughts that came through but uh they're not related I guess I could go through those someone asked if you could go back in time what did I miss Joy Robinson uh you missed a lot you can go back and watch though if you have any questions just let me know soone to asked if if you could go back in time what area would you choose to live in well I would live when brother Brandon was alive that's when I would go that's where I would go I would follow them all around the meetings and uh it's what I would do well also congratulations to Jonathan Syler and sister charity Spencer and um sister an Martin and them for getting engaged good for them really happy for and uh David you going to the spring meets uh Lord willing maybe I'm not not exactly sure yet but I'll uh I'm praying about it I'm praying about it Jim says how many marshmallows do you think can fit inside a whale well it depends on the size of the Marshall marshmallows and depends on the size of the whale I guess just it depends it depends will you be at Louisiana Camp uh Noah I will do my best um if I can find a uh if I can find a uh a ride I'll go um I don't know where you're located no but if you have a ride already let me know I'll go with you that be that be a ton of fun I would love to do that be so much fun can't quite drive there it's 11 and a half hours away but if the uh Johnson City group is going that'd be a lot of fun all right and how to show a question all right Josiah says do you ever wonder if there's more to life than just being really really really ridiculously good-looking I don't know Josiah I mean it's uh I mean I think that you know it's you and me just I we've got the good looks you know people they named David jiah you usually do and uh uh there's more to life being really really really ridiculously good-looking um I Heard eating chocolate pie or making a good steak is really good and jiah can says Nope there's not I've tried these are questions I have to ask myself daily yeah Josiah yeah Josiah Canada Josiah McLaren David Josiah Kain Josiah it's a great name let's see yeah I'm not going to get into that that's that's between uh people in private I'm not going to answer that publicly uh let's see NOA says I'm going with the Johnson City Group leaving this Wednesday um Noah can you uh find out for me please if they have any more uh more room that would be awesome I really appreciate it let's see Ray says are there some things you would have done differently in your relationship with Julie um well of course there's always uh always things you can turn WR but it's personal um Ray says are there some things you would differently well let's say uh the one's perfect you want to do everything the way God wants um just I asked if you could time Trav at any point in history but you can only take a sock a single sock with you where and when would you go but that's weird um sister jerich says when did you feel the call to become a minister when did I feel the call as far as feeling the call was when I was um RC wiy I don't like what you said I I said that anything for me or against me I'd remove and I don't like talking about people that way when did I fill the call become a minister so when I was 14 is when I went to my pastor and asked him if I could preach and then he told me uh he told me to uh pray about it for a couple weeks and so I did and I never got back to him and then when I was 16 I was going crazy and I was like Dad got to preach got to pre he said okay this Wednesday you're going to go with Josiah Joshua and Alex and you guys are going to take about a certain amount of time each and uh David is going to um David are going to take 20 25 minutes the other guys are going to take 10 or 15 and uh they ended up taking 20 25 minutes and I ended up and I we didn't have much time so I preached by God's grace June 17th 2017 for exactly um how long was it for exactly 12 minutes and 35 SEC or 12 minutes and 38 seconds and um they uh I just it started out as disagreeing with some friends about some IND doctrinal stuff and then I uh it ignited a passion in me and I didn't care so much about being right and I cared about the truth of it all and noticed that their lives unfortunately went into shambles and I got closer to God by God's grace and I fell in love with this message like never before and there was a passion that was ignited and I couldn't put it away and I uh I remember dad told me and said David uh I'll give you a thought thought is without faith is impossible please God and so I tried to write some up and I didn't understand what I was writing up and needed to Daddy's like David what in the world are you writing up here and uh and so um am I going to Louisiana Camp maybe I don't know and so uh I tried WR some up and Dad couldn't make sense of it neither could I he said David have you ever heard the rule of kiss and so I said um I said no he said well just keep it simple stupid I was like what keep it simple stupid and so uh and so um he said that you want the complaint to be not that it was so complicated no one could understand it but that the sermon was so simple anyone could understand it so thought became then he said David without faith is impossible please God but with faith it's impossible not to please God and from there went Joshua when he said Joshua when he said um son stand still with the uh son stand still he said um he pleased God but with faith is imposs with faith is impossible not to please God and so uh that was a sermon and then a while later dad asked me to preach again and I was praying and I walk around outside um to uh to pray and to see what God wanted me to preach and so I um I uh I prayed and um when I was praying I I was listening of a thinking of a certain uh Little House in the prairie episode where um where there's bully boys that come to town and they uh they start bullying everybody and uh so then it's rough for everybody and all that and so what happens is is that Char they mess with Charles Eng Les's wife it's two bully brothers and their son and they mess with Charles Eng Les his wife and I makes her make her drop some eggs that she was carrying and all that and then uh so Charles Engles tries to go up there and stop him and I uh and I um pray for me guys pray for me please I'm going to pray right now gracious heavenly father I ask that you'd lead me in your ways speak through me the way you want me to Cast Away evil spirits I ask in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ amen and so I uh at the towards the end of the episode I remember the uh the uh the guy with a big beard told Charles Eng Les let me go over there and beat him up for you and I wish you would have almost I was really uh I was really um I was really um on on his on his page and so uh what's up with the David some bless you I'm a Son of God and filled with the Holy Ghost and I am thrilled about this message and I'm thankful that when someone is sealed by the baptism of the Holy Ghost they could be no more lost than God himself is lost and I'm thankful for the peace that passes all understanding that this message is thus sayith the Lord and it is the greatest thing that's ever hit the face of this Earth and it does not matter what situation you're going through it does not matter what situation that you're in you can be at peace and so Charles set told his friend dun go and beat him up so I uh so I uh I just was so what happened is that Charles tells his friend don't go and fight him and then what happens next is that all of the teenage boys in up you know toddler boys and up are gone out on the farm working for this for the school season and the girls are at the school and some of the taller boys and um they the two bully boys and their son are the bad guys in the episode and so the bully boy the son he starts um bullying some of the people there and then they start fighting back and all the girls and the one a couple little boys beat that boy up big time and so then at the uh so then they go to the uh church and the pastors there and they got to two bully boys and their son beat into a pul just about and the pastor goes up there and he says as you know we've had some bullet boyss come to town and try to change things and we know that we need to treat people good and it it's so he said it's so uh hard and difficult that the children of our town had to show us the example of what a true Christian is supposed to be like he said we're supposed to turn the other cheek and be kind to those that are mean to us but there comes a time when no amount of turning the other cheek will stop those that do the devil
