My dear friends.

There may be nobody to greet you at the door as you seek to


find a place in this hall. But please know that you may not have 10 paisa in your
pocket but you are very important to the lord who gave his life for you. So dont
imagine at because you are not greeted with the wonderful smile like the richer
treated. I never treated the rich like that. I spent time with the poorest people. So
the poor of the world rich in faith the bible says. Now I want to turn you before I
turn you to the scriptures. There is a Christian book Fair this called a festival I
suppose. 3rd February to the 8th. So in the basement of this church. Yes bellow
here. 10 am to 9pm. 3rd February to the 8th. Now tomorrow evening the last
meeting 4:15pm. Exactly on time. 4:15pm. and you know that on Sundays there
is service here. And what 9:30 or 10 o clock. And we welcome you all. Now dear
friends. Can you discover Ephesians in your bible? I do trust you can turn to
Ephesians. You see Ephesus was city known for the worship of Diana. And the
Greek gods were very like our gods. No purity. What? God without holiness. You
see some poet conceived of this gods. And according to his corrupt mind. He
gave his corruption to these characters. So idles can never give you purity. No
friends. In that city of Ephesus. There was a great up evil when the word of God
went there. But you see there were cutting right a cross all those ancient ideas
about God. And that of course that was resented. When Christ was preached in
several parts of India. Oh some of them could not find ant resident for the night.
One man who came all the way from Germany Ziegenbalg. First the captain of
their ship would not give him a boat to land. Then he was also put in the prison.
He sat with the little children under the shade of a tree. And he learnt the
alphabets. And in six months time. He was so proficient in that language. You
see very difficult language. Tamil. Its not as beautiful as Telugu. But you know
some times it look as the two people are fighting when they are talking ordinary
Tamil. Anyway all languages are different. I had to study one or two other
languages. And that I am glad that some of you know Hindi. Oh its a great
disadvantage not to know Hindi. Anyway the man the pundit who thought
Ziegenbalg. He was killed. Why? Oh you have thought the foreigner ours
language and lore. So they killed the teacher. My dear friends. Somehow in the
heart of man there is a great barrier against light. You see a thief doesnt like you
took flash your flash light on him. He first tries to dismantle your lighting system
and then your phones. Because he is a thief. But the owner of the house. What
does he do? As soon as he enters the house. He goes to the lights switch and
turns it on. Now when the light which is turned on. Many people find a revelation
against light. Now my wife was telling you how she humbled herself. It in my
case. I had to go to my tailor. See in the city of Madras. From the time I was a
little boy. My father would take me to the tailor. When I need some shorts or
shirts or whatever. But on one accusation. The poor tailor forgot put my bill
correctly. I said oh this has over charged me. So thats ok. So that sin was in my
heart for five years. To go to that tailor and to return that money. To humble
myself was so difficult. I was so proud. No if you turn to the 4 th chapter of the
Ephesians the 18th worse.

Alright. If become blind for one day or may be for one hour. Oh how helpless you
feel. Where did I leave my pen or what is the food before me. How do I go to my
cloths and pick up the shirt I want to wear. You know friends we are not great full
for our eyes we misuse our eyes. But hear the bible speaks of blindness of their
heart. You know while then my grandchildren were singing how great though art.
I was praying. What was I praying? Oh God I am not showing India how great you
are. I was ashamed of that. See we Christians those that say they are Christians.
Have being the greatest blocked and hindrance. Why cant people see Christ?
Suppose you weak up in the morning. And you say the sun never rose today. I
cant see sunshine. So the sun not risen today. What is that? People will
immediately say oh you have become mad. Its 10 o clock the sun is up. And you
say the sun is never risen today. The sun of righteousness is not easy to hide
him. But we have done that which is nearly impossible to do. We have hidden
him. So that people say I dont see the sun of righteousness. Oh my mother my
father the talk about prayer. They talk about fellowship. Oh they talk about
wonderful religious words. But they are fighting all the time. I dont want this
religion. I dont know if some of you are turning away your children from the sun
of righteousness. My friends thats a serious mater. Take any character of history.
And Renaud to be a great person or even a god. Put him next to Jesus. Come on
be honest. How do they compare with Jesus? Jesus is incomparable. My dear
people. And if there are people round us who reject the lord Jesus. As a western
God. Or as a figment of ones imagination. Let me tell you this. Its sear insanity.
You are not mad. But when you come to see Jesus. You know Sundharsing. When
Jesus appeared to him. He turned away. Oh I dont want this God. He was so
proud. But he said. I ask the real God to revel himself to me. And now when Jesus
stands before me. How can I turn away from him? So he fell at Jesus feet. My
dear friends. When peter came to Jesus. What did he say? Depart from me for I
am a sinful man o lord. He didnt say o I am an elder of this church I am this and I
am that. No my friends. Depart from me I am not worthy to stand before you.
Depart from me. For I am sinful man o lord. My dear friends. Did you ever cry like
that? Now as we proceed in this 4th chapter.19th to 20th worse says.
You are different. You know with these cell phones. Oh even school children are
doing a lot off mischief. Running away with auto rickshaw man or texting to some
boy. You know one doctor told me. A nurse text him. You know if you dont marry
me I will eat rat poison because I am a rat. Listen girls never say you are a rat
nor you boys. You are not a rat. To eat rat poison. Oh if you say no the stars will
fall on out of the sky. No fear of that. No fear of that. But all kinds of foolish
things are taking place. What is the net result? No virginity. My dear friends. An
American high school where I was speaking for one weak. A girl came to see me.
And she said. Mr Daniel you said that the greatest position of a young woman is
her virginity. If a girl loses that then what? My own relative he flavoured me. My
dear people. Cinema promotes fornication. The television promotes impurity. And
societies says oh this is common. Even our gods and goddesses did not have
purity. My friends. Do not deceive yourself. I suppose some of you eat Christmas
cake things like that. What you did to celebrate I dont know. But what is a thing
that was central at Christmas? A virgin shell bring forth a son. What? A virgin.
This has not happen in history. But this such is the promise concerning Jesus. And
who was selected by God? A young woman a country girl. Not a girl from the
University. But a simple girl. Who could say? Be it onto me according to your
word. She was ready. Though she was unaware that God intended to do that
miracle in her. You see its a different thing. When you prepare yourself for years.
This great event is going to take place in my life so let me prepare myself. My
dear friends. No such awareness or advance notice was given to her. Now to us.
There is advance notice. Holiness on to the lord. Holiness without which no man
shall see God. So I know that but even at early age I began to corrupt myself.
Having eyes full adultery. Corrupting myself. Today I dont know what
phonography you are into. I dont know what kind of pictures your cell phone is
giving. But know this there is a record kept against you. The books will be
opened and another book was opened which is the book of life. And the dead
would judge out of those books. My dear friends I can deceive everybody. But I
cant deceive God. He is the searcher of the heart. And what does he find their?
Evil motives and unclean pursuits. Corrupt planes. My dear friends. These are not
hid from God. But these are the things that we marcher in our heart. But hear the
20th worse says.
20th to 22nd
The old man. I suppose many of you would baptised. But what does baptism
stand for. 31.01
