00:00:24
in our multinational brotherhood,
00:00:27
80 different nations, languages,
00:00:31
peoples,
00:00:32
ethnic groups are represented, and one of them is Americans,
00:00:36
English-speaking people, like many Americans in
00:00:41
Slavic unions, before there are many nationalities in our brotherhood,
00:00:45
but it is called
00:00:46
international brotherhood in our church
00:00:49
where I go, our services are held in
00:00:51
mainly in Russian, despite the fact
00:00:53
that we have people represented and 17
00:00:56
nationalities in our church, we have
00:00:58
Jews, Poles, Bulgarians and that is,
00:01:00
Americans,
00:01:01
as for the Americans, in our
00:01:04
churches in our churches there is a brotherhood
00:01:07
of Americans, we have very few
00:01:11
but the first Americans who
00:01:15
became members of our brotherhood these are my
00:01:18
parents my wife's parents my wife and
00:01:20
brother they are members of our
00:01:23
church today it was let's say at the first
00:01:25
swallows that flew there its own
00:01:28
history is very interesting than in Chicago there
00:01:30
is also a knife a few people mostly
00:01:35
they found us not us they were found, that is,
00:01:37
something attracted them, well, if
00:01:40
you don’t count my relatives, then the rest of the
00:01:42
Americans are people who became part of
00:01:44
our brotherhood through marriage,
00:01:46
we had one American from the world while
00:01:50
he appeared in our church, he
00:01:53
ruled very great zeal in the church,
00:01:55
he prayed, he communicated with young people, but due to the
00:01:59
fact that our church still
00:02:01
prefers the Russian language, he left our
00:02:04
church, this of course is a very
00:02:07
delicate question, a bit complicated question of language,
00:02:10
well, listen to me on this, well, in general,
00:02:11
for this reason we have few Americans
00:02:16
because of that that we no longer have courses in
00:02:18
Russian, let’s say 95 percent, like
00:02:22
this, that is, they come to us, well, we don’t come
00:02:26
to them because we have nowhere to invite them,
00:02:31
they come to listen to the translation, this doesn’t
00:02:35
quite suit them, my wife
00:02:38
works as a doctor, she invited
00:02:39
practically
00:02:41
her own many employees they visited
00:02:45
once two three times Americans of
00:02:47
Chinese nationality, let's say,
00:02:49
American affiliation visited but
00:02:52
they did not stay in our church
00:02:54
but for now this is the situation here is
00:02:59
evangelism in America in what
00:03:02
directions is this ministry carried out
00:03:04
how did you acquire a mission field in
00:03:08
Mexico in Cuba among Indians, as
00:03:12
for the work of evangelism, of course,
00:03:15
my personal opinion, my view may
00:03:17
not be entirely objective because
00:03:20
we have people who are directly related to the
00:03:22
work of evangelism, I work with young people
00:03:23
who have a cost in relation to evangelism,
00:03:26
in general, I am generally not satisfied with the
00:03:31
work of evangelism in American
00:03:33
unification is taking place, you can’t
00:03:36
say that it doesn’t exist at all, we have
00:03:37
a department of these people who work,
00:03:39
but probably the
00:03:43
association knows what America is,
00:03:46
America is a country
00:03:48
in the past that sent a lot of
00:03:52
missionaries, hundreds of books about missionaries,
00:03:55
my wife, as a teenager, read the
00:03:57
stream below a year about missionaries in the east
00:04:00
I think I have about 300 books about
00:04:02
my missionaries and they read that is, having
00:04:05
this here is something to compare with, for example, you
00:04:07
kept in America how they were engaged in
00:04:09
evangelism then against the background of that
00:04:11
missionary but it seems to me that
00:04:13
we have practically nothing if
00:04:17
compare with the fact that America is like the
00:04:19
American Baptists, they sent out many
00:04:22
seniors, that is, in fact, people
00:04:23
left in different directions, we have a lot of
00:04:25
history, well, yes, we moved to America, we are
00:04:28
migrants uno, as it were, it’s not such a language,
00:04:30
we don’t have a basic one, such a financial one, let’s say,
00:04:32
well no matter how
00:04:34
different it may be, all their missions worked on a
00:04:36
very large scale,
00:04:37
so we kind of have evangelism,
00:04:40
probably at a minimum, these are
00:04:42
the options as for evangelism in
00:04:45
America, it takes place at a minimum, well,
00:04:48
library ministries are located here in
00:04:52
our city of Sacramento and not only with us, I
00:04:54
also took a significant part in this
00:04:56
a little earlier when I was less busy, let’s say there
00:04:59
were fewer children there was less workload in the
00:05:00
church, we squeezed into the city to set up
00:05:02
a column, we sang, we preached, our
00:05:06
brothers preach well, we handed out
00:05:08
tracts, the newspapers moved on and now this
00:05:11
ministry continues, but as for
00:05:14
this street evangelism offline, yes, the
00:05:17
problem is that when people go,
00:05:20
the question is where can we come, we don’t know
00:05:23
where to send them, we are already young, they
00:05:25
ask what language do you use to
00:05:26
narrow down the fact that they feel that we are
00:05:28
not Americans, well Yes, we have young
00:05:31
brothers who speak without an accent, but
00:05:34
still can’t tell by their faces that we are not
00:05:35
Americans, no matter how you look at it, you don’t
00:05:37
believe it, and when we say that for
00:05:39
service in Russian, but we will
00:05:40
translate it for you, it’s very confusing for them, but it kind of
00:05:42
confuses
00:05:44
them As for the good news within
00:05:47
the United States, we have
00:05:48
good evangelism in New York in San Francisco,
00:05:50
we regularly go to churches and
00:05:52
go there to the city of San Francisco,
00:05:55
well, that’s probably how we conducted a radio program
00:05:59
here for 9 years and broadcast sakrament,
00:06:02
this was part of our good news then
00:06:04
the situation there changed a little
00:06:07
as for evangelism among the Indians, the
00:06:09
largest concentration of American
00:06:12
Indians is located at the intersection of
00:06:14
four states, if you look at the map
00:06:17
they intersect like this
00:06:18
New Mexico youth drawn there are
00:06:23
a lot of eggs and a brother is needed there moved
00:06:25
for evangelism in 2010, well Now
00:06:29
we have our own there. there are nine members of the church
00:06:32
from indigenous Indians, that is,
00:06:35
without a mixture of American there are Indians
00:06:38
while I was baptized 1:03 what was
00:06:40
this announced at baptism we have two
00:06:42
missionary families living with you, a deacon is
00:06:45
now we are a candidate for the
00:06:46
presbyter of the breaking bread performed
00:06:49
on behalf of the brothers there goes there
00:06:53
Our camp was in English,
00:06:55
several came and went there, they
00:06:57
really liked it, they felt like
00:06:59
part of a big brotherhood, three of them
00:07:01
repented,
00:07:03
well, of course, there are many Indian reservations in
00:07:05
America, I know that in
00:07:09
other places the brothers also visit
00:07:11
some places, but so far this is
00:07:14
more or less development among and eggs
00:07:16
tent evangelism is taking place buy was to
00:07:18
become a Bible study in such a
00:07:21
specific direction this is a Vedic
00:07:24
reservation among the Navajo tribe here in
00:07:28
California there are patches for me we
00:07:30
went to them carried out targeted
00:07:33
evangelism there let’s say
00:07:35
this is what concerns the Indians in our
00:07:38
evangelism takes place in Mexico in Mexico
00:07:40
I have also been there several times several
00:07:43
churches have been working there, one of the churches
00:07:46
has had an orphanage for several years now, they are
00:07:48
working well stably without any
00:07:51
special advertising, that is, this church has
00:07:54
its own project of the welfare of Velsky among
00:07:57
Mexicans in Mexico there are
00:08:00
other directions there brothers our people
00:08:03
travel to houses of prayer, they build our point in
00:08:07
Mexico, there is no brotherhood because
00:08:09
our families don’t seem to be there, but we are working on this
00:08:11
matter and working on issues, I hope that it
00:08:13
will be our people, but what’s interesting is that
00:08:16
I made one note under our xi Kan
00:08:18
churches, here we are recently were with the youth
00:08:20
there,
00:08:21
they are a teacher preaching the gospel from the
00:08:24
believer Mexicans,
00:08:26
it turns out that the church has two
00:08:29
directions: evangelization and
00:08:32
house-building, that is, outside church
00:08:35
service, how to invite people to
00:08:36
church, and when people came to church,
00:08:38
now it is necessary to engage in
00:08:40
house-building, in principle, certain
00:08:42
teachings are not doctrines, and so among the Mexicans,
00:08:45
as I understand it, yes, I talked to them there with
00:08:48
Pastor Abel, they mainly
00:08:52
deal with what kind of organizations they take
00:08:53
to the streets, by the way, when they go out to
00:08:56
evangelize, they wear ties and shirts, well, as
00:08:58
if the relationship is very holy, but in
00:09:00
evangelism, but somehow we'll go to
00:09:02
evangelism there, sneakers there, dressed as
00:09:04
usual, they have a different attitude, this is a
00:09:07
sacred thing, go tell people about
00:09:09
God, that is, when you go on the street
00:09:11
to evangelize, you should look as if
00:09:13
you are going to church because
00:09:16
you are the church of Christ, you represent
00:09:17
the church Christ and
00:09:19
it turns out that many people
00:09:21
come to their church to the vice and get
00:09:24
baptized, but they have a weak question about doctrines, faith,
00:09:27
teachings,
00:09:29
for example, I ask a question about some
00:09:32
doctrine, they answer weakly, they say,
00:09:35
well, the main thing for us, for the sake of God, is to bring the church
00:09:37
inside in our church
00:09:40
works more intensively, we know what
00:09:42
doctrines to them about this we preach the message of the
00:09:44
Apostle Paul, but with the external
00:09:46
evangelist it is a little more difficult, as if
00:09:49
they have one country that is slightly developed on the other
00:09:51
side, the more developed, but thank God the
00:09:54
Mexicans and their pastor there is his name is
00:09:57
Abel Whiskey and Scooby-Doo with such a
00:09:59
BBC name they open
00:10:01
missionary points for example the church
00:10:03
has grown to 100 members
00:10:04
if the pastor is
00:10:06
pastore in Mexican in Spanish if
00:10:10
they managed to break the churches up to 100 members
00:10:13
then it means he needs to be resettled to another
00:10:16
point and they don’t send a person here
00:10:18
who
00:10:19
will be more likely to be born inside
00:10:21
the church to work, that is, for people
00:10:24
who came from the world like this,
00:10:26
here they are working in a very poor
00:10:28
country, very poor, surprising how
00:10:31
you moved the border to Sanica and immersing yourself in
00:10:34
real Mexican life,
00:10:37
surprising how, along with such a
00:10:41
rich one, we see improving like this they are looking for poor
00:10:45
people and bombed, they are looking for God and we
00:10:47
intend to continue to work in Mexico.
00:10:49
Our brothers are jealous especially of young
00:10:51
families. As for the material
00:10:53
ministry, send something there as a gift and
00:10:56
but we buy the gospel, but Christmas, we
00:10:59
went and visited churches, thank God, this is
00:11:03
about the ministry in Mexico,
00:11:05
well, the third direction to cuba cuba
00:11:08
means the Indians of Mexico and the club in
00:11:12
2015, the brothers from Minneapolis
00:11:15
had a great desire to visit
00:11:18
Cuba because the political
00:11:21
situation became a little softer under that
00:11:23
administration,
00:11:25
it became possible to come from
00:11:28
America because from America to
00:11:30
it was very difficult to go to Cuba, for example, I
00:11:34
remember we went on our first trips,
00:11:38
you send your passport and Washington DC
00:11:40
they consider two or three weeks, I
00:11:43
give you downstairs then you ask them for
00:11:47
permission to evangelize, let’s say so, that
00:11:50
is, they gave it officially to
00:11:52
distribute the gospel on the streets, that was
00:11:54
everything is of course very interesting, well, how would you
00:11:56
come,
00:11:58
well, there was communism Lenin lived Lenin is alive
00:12:02
Lenin will live
00:12:04
these slogans today, remember, we went to a
00:12:07
restaurant to eat and there were posters with the
00:12:12
same ones that were in the school where I
00:12:13
studied at the Soviet school, the Great
00:12:15
Patriotic War
00:12:16
we- we won there, all these slogans, the
00:12:19
Soviet Union, songs there, these Cubans, as
00:12:23
if they don’t read Russian, everything
00:12:24
is written in Russian, in general, the country is very
00:12:27
interesting, very
00:12:29
impressive because whoever lived in the
00:12:32
Soviet Union, for him, for him, the real
00:12:34
Soviet means is that they drive Lada
00:12:36
Muscovites Kamaz victories are basically
00:12:39
Soviet cars, I have the
00:12:42
impression that the Soviet Union has all the
00:12:44
transport crossing there
00:12:47
Zaporozhye
00:12:49
disabled people will pass the cars the
00:12:52
cars are very expensive but of course
00:12:54
we can talk about this for a long time there are Cuban
00:12:56
churches there we were in these churches
00:13:01
getting acquainted at some point
00:13:03
we are very interesting there were 500 members in one church,
00:13:08
Pastor Joel was like that, I barely according to ours, but
00:13:13
they were surprised that we had a lot of
00:13:16
children, for example, in one church we
00:13:19
met, there were 8 of us and we had a
00:13:21
translator, she translated
00:13:23
Russian into Spanish,
00:13:25
and
00:13:28
then I had five children the very first
00:13:30
trip, I say that I live in California,
00:13:32
I have five children, and when in someone that
00:13:34
I have five children, then the whole audience
00:13:36
clap their hands and
00:13:39
applaud wisely, but it’s not quite
00:13:41
familiar and we don’t have that, well, apparently it’s
00:13:43
common for them to express their emotions
00:13:46
when we’re all we got to know each other soon, he
00:13:49
says who has questions for any of
00:13:51
them, here is a woman standing there, apparently
00:13:53
believers, quite seriously, I have a question
00:13:57
about the second pinkamin,
00:14:00
he said that he has five children, I would like to
00:14:04
clarify whether this is true or not, but I answer
00:14:07
yes,
00:14:08
when you have a question for me 5 give birth and from
00:14:11
one wife or you more than one wife
00:14:14
when the translator translated I thought it was a
00:14:16
joke and didn’t even want to answer otherwise
00:14:19
first she remember in church but somehow but
00:14:23
nevertheless I saw that he was squeezing the hall waiting for
00:14:25
answers I said that I have one wife and
00:14:27
when I said that I have one wife they
00:14:29
clap their hands with even greater jealousy,
00:14:31
I then asked the pastor
00:14:33
how to perceive this, he says for us
00:14:37
Cubans it is impossible as it is impossible in
00:14:41
the year we have 30 children for the whole church
00:14:44
500 members
00:14:48
well, in this In terms of course, it was
00:14:51
impressive, well, and here I would like to
00:14:54
say about the gospel such a moment,
00:14:56
what did it do when we
00:14:59
interviewed him with this poster about the
00:15:01
development of the church they have their own history there
00:15:04
when I asked the question what is the goal of
00:15:07
your local church what are you
00:15:09
striving for, what are you working on, he
00:15:11
said, our first goal is
00:15:13
evangelism,
00:15:15
but theirs is their church, it works
00:15:18
more among drug addicts, alcoholics,
00:15:22
homeless people under bridges, they have a special
00:15:25
bus that goes and catches
00:15:28
these people, they brought them to the church as if there were
00:15:30
quotas and I I ask the question how long do you
00:15:34
work on a person’s soul and well, God
00:15:36
works through you so that he becomes
00:15:38
a Christian, he says,
00:15:41
how much time do you think it takes and a
00:15:43
huge year, two cities, a lot more
00:15:47
to know what I thought
00:15:49
they didn’t give birth to their children and Well, the whole
00:15:54
church, let’s say, has been working on it for several years,
00:15:57
thank you to me, souls, and we have them here,
00:15:59
they come to church, but somehow such a well,
00:16:04
the thought didn’t just come to mind that
00:16:06
thank God there are so many children, that’s
00:16:09
what concerns Cuban churches, there are
00:16:12
a lot of Russians in During the times of the Soviet
00:16:14
Union, about 60 thousand
00:16:17
Russian-speaking women crossed over to Cuba, the
00:16:19
Cubans are tall, they're
00:16:22
such representative men, they came to Moscow, they
00:16:25
snuggled up to Kiev, they didn't come to other
00:16:26
large cities, as a rule, they
00:16:30
won the sympathy of literate Russian women,
00:16:33
as a rule, they were mostly
00:16:36
teachers,
00:16:38
engineers of some kind the woman there and they
00:16:42
agreed, well, to leave the
00:16:46
Soviet Union, the Iron
00:16:48
Curtain was warned, well, to go to Cuba, there was a
00:16:50
talisman nearby, who knows how life
00:16:52
would turn out there, they agreed to get married,
00:16:54
so approximately 60,000 women were
00:16:58
transported to Cuba, many of them have already
00:17:00
died, many are still and to
00:17:03
this day they are alive and among them
00:17:05
the gospel is being carried out there, there are already all of you
00:17:08
who were brought to baptism, well, in general, there is
00:17:11
a prospect of service there, there were
00:17:13
two 7 missionaries of ours lived for a maximum of
00:17:16
two years because to get there to live
00:17:18
only through the curriculum as
00:17:20
students, therefore our people
00:17:23
We went there from a brotherhood in Ukraine for two
00:17:26
years, did ministry, then left
00:17:29
now because of the coronavirus, there is no one there
00:17:32
because the time has come, we didn’t go there, they don’t let
00:17:34
anyone in, we have someone
00:17:36
responsible for service
00:17:37
in Cuba, and
00:17:39
he goes there regularly, it was the 19th
00:17:42
trip already 19, I think that if it weren’t for
00:17:48
the coronavirus, let’s say these
00:17:49
restriction with this rule, then I
00:17:53
would have done it faster, I hope it
00:17:55
will continue to be like this, well, in 19 trips they
00:17:58
managed to create a cross in them, this
00:18:00
believers are being built up to in several
00:18:02
places this is Havana This is Matanzas, a couple more,
00:18:05
that is, first of all, they decided. Russian
00:18:07
people learned from something, believers come here
00:18:10
in 2015, it started first, the
00:18:14
first trip was there in a year 2, that
00:18:16
is, now they happen more often,
00:18:18
well, well, just like that, that is, to
00:18:21
say that the result is already a big one, you would
00:18:24
n’t say well,
00:18:26
fame in order for the meeting to be
00:18:29
quite large, that is, people
00:18:31
come and come, but this is that
00:18:34
home groups are home groups, yes, yes,
00:18:36
there are houses there, communism is there, it is not
00:18:38
allowed to openly preach
00:18:40
the gospel there, people gather in houses,
00:18:44
but the official Cuban churches
00:18:46
were not registered they have permits there, so it’s
00:18:48
not your envy, they
00:18:51
work like everyone else here, yes they
00:18:53
work, these them have a
00:18:54
certain level of accountability, but if you compare
00:18:57
historically, they don’t work like everyone else
00:18:59
worked in the Soviet Union, full
00:19:02
accountability of the names of pastors,
00:19:05
education background, well and so on,
00:19:07
accountability is what concerns the
00:19:10
local Cuban churches, they work like that and
00:19:12
at first we had a kind of, well,
00:19:15
maybe with them they didn’t know
00:19:17
all the things, well, somehow, so that then
00:19:20
they realized that
00:19:22
inside I was met by the pastor of the Cuban
00:19:24
church at the airport, he I had to
00:19:26
get permission to meet
00:19:27
missionaries from America from the authorities, but
00:19:30
this does not suit us because the former are not used to it, and
00:19:32
secondly, we have different principles, this is not
00:19:34
our heritage, so that someone
00:19:36
from the authorities would control us, as we
00:19:38
preach, then he
00:19:40
will have to write a denunciation one, what questions did
00:19:43
you ask and what were you interested in,
00:19:45
what stores should we go to for interest,
00:19:47
for example, we went to a grocery
00:19:49
store, we bought groceries, when we
00:19:52
went out, we were met by the police, searched,
00:19:56
asked a question, do you have permission the
00:19:59
first time when we just didn’t
00:20:01
take out loans? permission to preach the
00:20:03
gospel in order to get on the lips if only there had been such intelligence,
00:20:07
let’s say yes, now this is no longer the case, as
00:20:09
if because it strongly connects you
00:20:11
with them, by the way, they let you down a couple of times
00:20:14
due to the fact that the authorities did not allow them to
00:20:15
stay, it turns out that we came to preach
00:20:17
the gospel and we didn’t we can because
00:20:20
the authorities told us we don’t need it yet, but
00:20:22
somehow it’s not according to the Gospels, it’s not
00:20:24
our way, but of
00:20:26
course they were surprised, these
00:20:29
Cubans, here we are, they
00:20:33
asked how our brotherhood
00:20:35
should work and they said that in our
00:20:37
country it’s impossible like this that’s how they
00:20:40
once told our brothers there that it’s
00:20:43
impossible
00:20:45
they don’t have Luzhniki in churches and we’re not there
00:20:49
they have nothing on this matter or not they have
00:20:51
no experience don’t remember the saint yes yes yes
00:20:55
she has
00:20:57
I think that if they had prisoners
00:20:58
they would say, maybe it makes sense
00:21:00
to translate our experience
00:21:04
of independence into Cuban and not somehow
00:21:06
adapt it for them, we can you
00:21:08
should not wish for this path, because
00:21:09
asceticism maybe in their churches,
00:21:11
too, there will be people of faith who will want to
00:21:14
follow this path of freedom until perhaps yes
00:21:18
Well, this situation in Cuba is
00:21:21
very similar, that is, this is what once was
00:21:24
in the Soviet Union right now,
00:21:25
go to it, you will see, take it to any
00:21:27
Cuban church, ask them a question, it’s the
00:21:29
same for everyone, and it comes with authorized documents,
00:21:32
full accountability, missionaries came
00:21:34
and left here is our church in our country,
00:21:37
preaching the gospel is allowed, we want it and it’s a
00:21:38
communist country,
00:21:40
here there are official churches,
00:21:44
you can’t gather unofficially for 30 years, this is a change
00:21:47
of generations, and for 30 years of testing the freedom of
00:21:50
youth in America, what are these tests
00:21:54
from there is a danger of losing the
00:21:56
spiritual heritage of awakening,
00:21:58
testing freedom
00:22:00
is real a test for our
00:22:03
youth, this is my personal observation, I’m
00:22:06
not a youth in terms of age, I don’t go
00:22:09
to college, I don’t go to universities, I would
00:22:12
even say so, on the one hand, I
00:22:14
try to
00:22:15
be with young people as much as possible, at the same time, in
00:22:19
the back of my mind, I understand that I
00:22:21
already have some things, but it’s not that I don’t
00:22:23
catch up,
00:22:24
I can’t understand no, because they
00:22:30
are too complete with the
00:22:32
Americans, for example, especially student
00:22:35
students, because in the class there are like 30
00:22:37
students from 20 countries of the world,
00:22:40
let’s say so, and you can guess who
00:22:43
in college there will be a country, it’s a
00:22:46
national one here in America, let me
00:22:49
take a little English for two
00:22:50
months, I remember college at the very beginning, when
00:22:52
I arrived, we had thirty-three
00:22:54
students from 28 countries of the world and everyone
00:22:57
did differently and everyone was
00:22:58
different - I believed in myself, I can only now
00:23:01
imagine, and now that is, how
00:23:03
difficult it is for our youth to look at such a
00:23:06
diversity of people’s cultures, and especially their
00:23:11
attitude towards religion, and so on, this is
00:23:14
a test of freedom because everyone
00:23:16
understands it in their own way,
00:23:17
for example, atheists, they then bend their line
00:23:21
but Muslims, and yes, they are very
00:23:25
active in their propaganda,
00:23:27
Muslims, for example, the god whom
00:23:30
we believe and Muslims is the same god
00:23:32
or not, this is a very serious question, but
00:23:35
God, we believe in God and they believe so
00:23:37
under Allah and the god who appeared to
00:23:40
our Abraham Is God the same God or not?
00:23:42
Young people are very interested in these questions
00:23:45
because they have discussions and
00:23:47
communication.
00:23:50
Well, the first test is external,
00:23:53
this is college university, this is the first
00:23:55
second, this is the vastness of the Internet, this is already
00:23:58
online, young people listen a lot, they are
00:24:02
immersed in it. in
00:24:05
listening to various information, well,
00:24:09
as for the relationship with Christianity,
00:24:10
for example, we also have the American church,
00:24:12
Calvinism, this is also a very big
00:24:15
test for our youth,
00:24:16
predestination will come knowledge, you know,
00:24:18
yes, that Western theology is very
00:24:20
strong in terms of they they are symmetrical in
00:24:23
their positions here I am not chasing but they did
00:24:25
n’t write a book, they’re a whole volume, and that
00:24:28
is, it’s here to the theologian pastors they
00:24:31
speak, they give lectures and the youth
00:24:34
listen to them with headphones, they listen to them there, they say
00:24:37
one thing, they come to us camps, our
00:24:39
communication, and here they talk about something else in the middle,
00:24:42
for example, the attitude as to weapons,
00:24:44
this is a very important issue
00:24:47
for our youth today, these
00:24:50
questions are significant, why do American
00:24:52
Baptists
00:24:54
promote carrying weapons and even the
00:24:57
biblical one to somehow die, and we
00:24:59
say that water is your lecture
00:25:01
yesterday, but some brothers say we are
00:25:03
confused why in the Russian brotherhood
00:25:06
this is how the Americans understand it, maybe
00:25:08
because there were persecutions there, there were no persecutions here, therefore,
00:25:10
or these people are right, that is, they have
00:25:12
a lot of questions on that topic, service in the
00:25:14
army,
00:25:15
attitude to politics, especially last
00:25:18
year, very strongly
00:25:19
the people within our believers walked around with
00:25:23
caps for that president or for
00:25:27
well, how to transport one thing from our diaspora to a
00:25:29
small one we had such proposals
00:25:32
let us see in the city we will say that
00:25:35
we are more conservative and ours is a
00:25:38
different spiritual heritage and we answer
00:25:41
their questions in faceted we don’t sing yes
00:25:43
why and here we are we answer that’s why we
00:25:46
made the first camp in
00:25:48
English because in Russian terminology it’s a
00:25:50
little difficult for them to answer our
00:25:52
Americans let’s say this is why it
00:25:55
was necessary to answer these questions in English
00:25:58
this prompted us to make the first camp
00:26:00
completely in English it’s but kind
00:26:03
of it just had to be done
00:26:04
because there are some things, but
00:26:07
which I find even a little difficult to
00:26:10
explain in English, to name
00:26:11
idioms, aphorisms that are
00:26:16
in sermons, such things sound that
00:26:19
even a dictionary cannot translate very well,
00:26:21
and we have preachers
00:26:22
brothers who are confirmed in this
00:26:25
our spiritual heritage, therefore, in their
00:26:27
native American language, they were able to
00:26:29
film these things, by the way, and it turned out
00:26:31
quite well, in my opinion, I think that our
00:26:33
brothers were not completely able to
00:26:36
answer everything directly, study this a little at the dacha,
00:26:38
but in general it was quite good and they
00:26:41
filmed our position. our
00:26:43
spiritual heritage from the attitude to
00:26:44
politics, this attitude to
00:26:48
the military is obliged to this, that is, and
00:26:52
well, we are the next question, this is how you
00:26:55
form the boundaries between the church, the
00:26:57
politics of the church in the army, because the tradition of
00:27:00
American Baptists is the Baptists of the
00:27:02
president,
00:27:03
this is the hero of the nation, the report card, we play PC
00:27:07
aggression of the USA,
00:27:09
the best the warriors are the Puritans and but and so on and so
00:27:12
forth all of American history has been well-
00:27:14
fed for 100 years, it is based on such
00:27:16
rather politicized values
00:27:19
where everything is mixed together into one
00:27:21
cocktail, yes, as if there is no such border, and
00:27:23
now you have arrived with this
00:27:25
inheritance of the court, you say about the fact that
00:27:28
we will not take the oath, why
00:27:30
because Baptists, so listen, we
00:27:32
Baptists are the best warriors, you are some other
00:27:33
Baptists, these are the first questions when you
00:27:37
must formulate your
00:27:39
positions to government agencies in the very first steps
00:27:42
you take here on
00:27:44
American territory then further, more
00:27:47
children are born in you in America, you must invest in them the
00:27:50
spiritual heritage of brotherhood, the conclusion
00:27:53
is how to draw these boundaries and draw yours, so
00:27:56
you, as the head of the youth
00:27:58
department of the youth department, gather a conference, the time is
00:28:00
quite a difficult society, it is
00:28:02
politicized and naturally the challenges of
00:28:05
our time, these challenges must be
00:28:07
answered in a reasoned timely manner
00:28:10
Biblical competently substantiated
00:28:12
questions about why when you quit, your
00:28:15
mother allows you to ask questions
00:28:17
why you can’t ask questions why it’s customary for
00:28:20
us all to ask, and we lost the battle
00:28:22
if we don’t have arguments, if we
00:28:24
can’t explain our position to the authorities
00:28:26
to argue for it, then we lost this
00:28:29
battle, but our positions
00:28:32
no longer have an impact
00:28:33
if the question why cannot be asked, that
00:28:36
is, only those positions a are not viable
00:28:40
when we can saturate them
00:28:42
with argumentation and when these arguments are
00:28:45
focused on obvious goodness on
00:28:48
obvious virtue on consolidating
00:28:50
some basic biblical values ​​and
00:28:52
so I have a question: how do you form
00:28:55
these boundaries in the minds of young people? Until we see, as for the
00:29:00
question of the oath in
00:29:02
America, in the army people only go
00:29:05
voluntarily, this of course makes it easier for our,
00:29:07
that is, our youth, to join the army. I don’t know
00:29:10
which of our churches went to the army, but
00:29:12
there are a couple guys are the children of our parents, but
00:29:16
they are not church people, nothing at our
00:29:17
church, they, well, going to the army in America
00:29:20
is very profitable, that is, on the one
00:29:23
hand, there is a temptation for youth to
00:29:25
accept and went there, well, finished
00:29:27
higher education in America, it is very
00:29:28
expensive if you go to army and then went to
00:29:31
work better at a much easier time, that
00:29:32
is, you don’t even have to go earn
00:29:34
this money, you can build a house, that
00:29:37
is, there are benefits there, let’s say yes, but
00:29:40
even this advantage of joining the army as a citizen does
00:29:43
not greatly affect our
00:29:45
youth, that is I mean, it’s not like
00:29:46
that, let’s be there, these are in the army
00:29:48
there among the brothers,
00:29:50
so for us the issue of the oath is not very
00:29:52
important at the moment because people
00:29:55
don’t go to the army there, not I remember 11 years
00:29:57
ago I took the
00:30:00
citizenship test Yes, and about us there were 8 people,
00:30:04
how does the process for citizenship go, you are
00:30:07
given questions 100 questions, an exam, you
00:30:10
must answer a certain number of
00:30:11
questions, I don’t remember exactly, if you
00:30:13
answered them, then it will go and then go to let’s
00:30:16
say such an inauguration, that is, that is,
00:30:19
thousands of five hundred people gather
00:30:20
approximately in a large hall and
00:30:24
for many this is a court holiday who
00:30:27
came here illegally and sought
00:30:28
permission for American citizenship,
00:30:31
well, we lived for five years and and and they
00:30:33
gave us citizenship, so I remember there
00:30:35
were several of us
00:30:37
who, well, on the same day received
00:30:42
American passports and when I came for
00:30:44
an interview, an interview with me
00:30:47
was interviewed by a Chinese woman,
00:30:50
by the way, they speak English very difficult, it’s
00:30:52
so difficult to understand,
00:30:54
even the Chinese living in America, their
00:30:57
pronunciation of English is very difficult, and
00:30:58
when I saw her and with my English
00:31:01
then I was kind of but nevertheless, I
00:31:05
submitted the paper, I
00:31:07
signed that I swore I wouldn’t, this is our
00:31:11
position, we won’t give an oath, we
00:31:13
won’t pray for America and we pray to God, I’m there
00:31:16
like because for this inauguration, let’s say
00:31:19
yes, there you need to raise your hand and repeat the
00:31:22
prayer, I’m so and so I will pray
00:31:24
for this, we pray that I will serve this
00:31:26
country, that we will not do this, it’s
00:31:28
interesting that when I passed the exam, I
00:31:32
submitted this paper, now she did
00:31:36
n’t get very angry with us and she took it and threw the
00:31:39
documents on the floor, well, in America this is this
00:31:42
strange, that is, this is no framework at all, but
00:31:45
it turns out that I took the exam
00:31:47
for 3 and after the wedding,
00:31:49
my marriage was on Sunday, Wednesday and I passed the
00:31:52
exam, by the way, sometimes I didn’t prepare at all,
00:31:53
there was preparation, I forgot that
00:31:55
I had an exam, some kind of miracle, in general, I
00:31:58
passed the minimum and when I already left there,
00:32:02
I didn’t know what would happen to me next,
00:32:06
we had documents in the cinema on the floor, they basically
00:32:07
drove me away, I only managed to grab
00:32:10
some piece of paper about this, and in general, it was
00:32:13
my honor that the American asked me to take my
00:32:16
feet about it asked what happened for
00:32:20
some reason, I was so upset, I explained
00:32:22
how she took my documents there,
00:32:25
threw them away, well, she’s doing this and won’t fall, that’s in
00:32:29
general, he started calling and a
00:32:31
few days later they called me from the White House
00:32:34
Washington white house personally, they
00:32:36
apologized in the place the woman
00:32:39
no longer works there and take
00:32:41
your passport,
00:32:43
that is, the person has such
00:32:45
principles and does not want to take the oath,
00:32:47
this is his right, why throw away his
00:32:50
document if you don’t allow it in China
00:32:52
or in America there, that is,
00:32:53
this situation showed me then that
00:32:56
the government is federal and it recognizes
00:32:59
our right not to take an oath, well, for me
00:33:03
it was something like a confirmation
00:33:05
Nuno, but how we draw the lines, well,
00:33:09
we preach, see history, brotherhood,
00:33:13
even double unions for our youth, this is
00:33:16
not a strong argument on the one
00:33:17
hand, because historically there, when the
00:33:20
church entered politics, the
00:33:23
authorities began to control the church in
00:33:26
America, when the
00:33:28
state does not control the church much,
00:33:30
at least it used to be so, and this is the
00:33:34
question that we are now working on
00:33:37
because we understand for sure that the Bible
00:33:39
cannot work on the shore in an attack on
00:33:41
Russia. the biblical principle they are
00:33:42
unchanged regardless of which side and
00:33:45
we have such an idea
00:33:49
to make a report on
00:33:52
this topic for the next American camp, how it will go, how well-
00:33:54
reasoned it will be, I don’t know about my
00:33:55
brothers reading books and we will be greatly
00:33:58
helped by the mine no and because the mine is not that I
00:34:00
don’t understand, just like we do, the attitude towards
00:34:02
politics and power. Mennonites alone are not
00:34:05
Baptists, but they have very good
00:34:07
books. Historically, when they
00:34:10
won back these positions and they didn’t take
00:34:14
an oath, they have the same position,
00:34:16
we are not in power, that is, such a
00:34:19
civil position that
00:34:20
’s why we are now trying to
00:34:23
summarize the Bible more, well, the
00:34:25
Bible also says that the
00:34:27
American Baptists, as far as I
00:34:29
understand, and not in these matters, focus a lot
00:34:31
on the Old Testament,
00:34:33
we are at least no less than
00:34:36
in relation to the New Testament, we are in ours
00:34:39
arguments let's say and retreat not the
00:34:42
idea
00:34:43
where Jesus will go there the disciples will follow him
00:34:45
Jesus went there to parliament no,
00:34:50
that is, we are more guided by
00:34:52
your thoughts to the New Testament, the Americans,
00:34:55
how would they
00:34:56
equalize it, that is, in the Old Testament there were
00:34:59
such people as Daniel Joseph and bread
00:35:01
was distributed and bokiy blessed but they
00:35:04
had the criminal right to stone the
00:35:05
death penalty we have no lips of the church
00:35:09
we have the church no criminal law this is
00:35:13
another time, a completely different period
00:35:15
there was a theocratic state that
00:35:17
had cities of refuge capital
00:35:21
punishments deserved there to beat the heater what
00:35:24
what we today we have from us the
00:35:26
Lord took away the death row from the church we have
00:35:28
no executioners we do not have a church
00:35:30
inquisition we do not have a church army
00:35:33
church crusades everything that
00:35:36
Angus condemned comes from precisely the legacy of the
00:35:38
Old Testament in the Catholic Church against the
00:35:40
background of which the Reformation was born at once
00:35:42
and when I NBU skagos forms
00:35:45
formulated these theses that
00:35:48
God divided the secular sword and the spiritual sword forever in
00:35:51
the person of Jesus Christ, it is fitting for us as warriors of Jesus
00:35:54
Christ to fight only with the spiritual
00:35:57
sword of the word of God, this is the legacy of the
00:35:59
Reformation, but you see,
00:36:02
Gennady Konstantinovich helped and the
00:36:04
words belong to that how will you help
00:36:06
formulate that ours victories should
00:36:08
be a victory, but for other countries, and as I
00:36:11
remember this quote, that’s what I think,
00:36:14
in America there are people in
00:36:17
American churches who also understand like
00:36:20
we do, for example, even my father-in-law is one of the
00:36:24
points why he moved from the American
00:36:26
church to the council of churches I don’t know the Russian
00:36:28
language, it was in such questions, I always
00:36:31
- the measure came, he says how the church
00:36:34
can promote the carrying of weapons, and
00:36:37
one American from Nevada visited our church, he was
00:36:43
simply destroyed, became very ill,
00:36:46
many times my home was our church,
00:36:48
he even thought about becoming a member of our
00:36:50
church, well, it’s too far to travel, I missed
00:36:53
the question of why it’s important there in Carson City there
00:36:56
are American churches, I’m a member of
00:36:59
the church there, he says, but the things that your
00:37:02
brotherhood says are what I’ve already
00:37:05
persuaded, for example, the separation of the church from
00:37:07
politics, garnier understood everything the table blue
00:37:09
We simply don’t have people who
00:37:12
would preach this topic in English in a
00:37:15
well-reasoned biblical manner.
00:37:17
I’m thinking, God or God, please
00:37:21
stay with us, the young brothers of you
00:37:22
whom we are working on now are listening to
00:37:24
your lectures and seminars so that they can convey to the Americans in
00:37:27
their native language
00:37:29
English
00:37:32
By the way, when we were in Phoenix in that
00:37:33
American network, Borisovich, here is one of the
00:37:36
moments that my brother said
00:37:39
preached to a young man, he didn’t really
00:37:40
understand the pit, he just gave some
00:37:42
moments something to talk about, let’s say then that
00:37:44
our church is separated from politics, our
00:37:46
brotherhood, this, by the way, raised a lot of
00:37:49
questions for us Pastor Mike called us to an
00:37:51
audience, come to your senses or drink tea, he was
00:37:53
very interested when we know something
00:37:55
about this year, we have a completely
00:37:57
different history, we have 350
00:38:00
million people in America and more than 400 million
00:38:02
weapons,
00:38:04
that is, we have like them if you are a Baptist,
00:38:07
then the guys should have at least one
00:38:09
gun, and that’s how they say, a
00:38:11
man came into Texas and shot in a house of prayer,
00:38:13
no question, brother Benjamin did it,
00:38:16
let’s arm our
00:38:18
doorkeepers because we live in
00:38:19
America with all the weapons, that is, as it were even
00:38:22
the facts that are happening, as if they
00:38:24
were playing on their side of the house,
00:38:26
look at everything by the hour of weapons, we say,
00:38:29
dear, you can’t do anything in
00:38:31
that church, there were people in the city, there were weapons and
00:38:34
they were about to do it, that is,
00:38:37
we are trying, as it were, but probably
00:38:40
more not even historically anymore,
00:38:41
biblically, what the New Testament says about this
00:38:43
and we will work in this
00:38:45
direction and because our children live
00:38:47
in this country and I think that this issue is a
00:38:49
question of weapons of election politics, this is a
00:38:52
long-term issue that will
00:38:55
have a long continuation,
00:38:56
and even more so in the last time,
00:38:59
given the political situation of the church, to
00:39:02
get even more involved in politics, well,
00:39:05
because it’s the same, that is, before it
00:39:06
was somehow very different even wash yourself
00:39:08
say I remember in our park there are storms there
00:39:10
1 2 3 now some want to make 1
00:39:13
party Bonaparte others say
00:39:15
the opposite the other is on desk 0 and against the backdrop of
00:39:17
this, billions of dollars are being spent on the
00:39:19
chosen company and our people are involved
00:39:21
in this news, listening to the conspiracy theory,
00:39:24
and so on until this vaccine has an abortion
00:39:27
and the like, so we say this
00:39:29
every soul, yes, as a citizen you have the
00:39:32
right to express your position on if you want to
00:39:33
vote for this person, vote,
00:39:35
well, let’s not provoke preachers in our camps at our
00:39:38
meetings in our churches
00:39:40
on
00:39:41
this topic, we have nothing to do with them
00:39:44
because there have been some
00:39:46
like this, even among preachers,
00:39:49
but it’s clear that the check has heard enough something and,
00:39:51
as if not quite consciously, said
00:39:53
some things and even then Galina would
00:39:55
take and we preach Christ crucified
00:39:57
not politics, these are the mutually
00:40:01
reinforcing ties with times in the trash and
00:40:03
America, we understand that our
00:40:05
brotherhood begins with the brother sitting
00:40:08
next to him on the bench not from Moscow,
00:40:10
that is, if I don’t love my neighbor, then I don’t
00:40:12
love the brotherhood, my brotherhood is the
00:40:16
person with whom I go to church,
00:40:18
this is my youth, this is the first thing we
00:40:21
tell the youth, that to
00:40:24
love brotherhood is to love
00:40:27
your neighbor brother in your church, this is the
00:40:29
first but second that in general the question is very
00:40:33
interesting
00:40:34
for me personally, as for me, in my
00:40:37
understanding, I see that we have a
00:40:40
need to be in brotherhood, at
00:40:42
least today, at least
00:40:45
today, 2021, why do we need
00:40:49
brotherhood when there are at least some
00:40:52
guidelines, you at least have where to start
00:40:55
thinking, but even at such a moment,
00:40:59
my children are growing up, the guys will need to get
00:41:01
married
00:41:03
or think about all of world Christianity
00:41:06
and then suffer for a long time from either thinking, but
00:41:09
as you can see, when we, with him, our children
00:41:11
will get married, we take whose
00:41:12
relatives are the same It’s not an easy matter
00:41:16
when I, but I imagine my children
00:41:19
will get married within the framework of the decoration,
00:41:21
I have already decided many issues, but as a
00:41:23
rule, this means that people from the same
00:41:25
principles had, as a rule, without tradition, let’s
00:41:28
say so maybe there are some things that
00:41:30
make it a lot easier, well, sort of that’s what
00:41:32
brotherhood is for, secondly, our children
00:41:35
study the art of music before
00:41:37
serving God, I won’t organize a
00:41:41
seminar for my children myself. Ready to go,
00:41:43
you’re going there, send
00:41:45
other unions, this means you need to study all the
00:41:47
teachers, that is, this is
00:41:50
additional work that you don’t
00:41:51
need and as soon as the whole brotherhood you sent
00:41:54
a child, you are calm there, our people
00:41:58
are ours there, the same dogma there
00:42:01
and there will not teach what you didn’t teach at home,
00:42:03
these are such blessings that you
00:42:06
just need to realize that’s why
00:42:09
we are in the brotherhood that’s why we need
00:42:11
brotherhood, you are grateful to God for
00:42:14
getting to us, which we have today, with all
00:42:15
our disadvantages, we are grateful to God, for
00:42:19
example, as for the Russian
00:42:21
brotherhood, I don’t, I don’t know how to
00:42:23
go where to go, I go, I also happen to change my
00:42:25
advantages of being a fearer of God without it, but
00:42:28
in terms of structure, I personally seem to be
00:42:31
generally satisfied with this,
00:42:32
so we need the brotherhood, well,
00:42:36
we need the brotherhood, we need the brotherhood to thank
00:42:38
that they have an American association of
00:42:40
regiments and without an American association they
00:42:42
can send money, we understand he and
00:42:44
Voronoff sent it, but we will act
00:42:46
through people and when people come to us
00:42:48
when they are helping with funerals, our people
00:42:51
donate a lot to brotherhoods in terms of
00:42:54
church members, for families, for some
00:42:56
needs,
00:42:57
tens of hundreds of thousands of dollars, we know
00:42:59
what we are talking about and we encourage
00:43:02
people to do this, we have large numbers that need to be
00:43:05
passed through we have a mission that
00:43:09
works for the brotherhood, three missions
00:43:12
that are part of the big brotherhood, so the
00:43:15
brotherhood also needs us and we are happy about this, I
00:43:18
think that the dynamics are tightening the hooks and
00:43:20
this implied, of course, that America is a
00:43:24
rich country, people will live here,
00:43:26
earn money,
00:43:27
take money, and we come to us there let's go I'll
00:43:30
be going to Belarus I'm going I shouldn't
00:43:32
meet with brothers whom I've never
00:43:34
seen in person We have a community of spirit We have
00:43:37
churches ordination We don't
00:43:39
need to look on the Internet for the
00:43:41
right brother We called us
00:43:43
They came and ordained There are
00:43:46
a lot of advantages We have a lot of
00:43:48
camps youth communication takes place and
00:43:51
young people like it when people come
00:43:53
from abroad, this also contributes its
00:43:58
own content, certain things in general, I would
00:44:02
say that our churches, our churches,
00:44:05
they are located, brother, we have quite an
00:44:08
active participation in this course, by the way,
00:44:11
coronavirus, here it is,
00:44:13
well, how you could see on the one hand that they
00:44:20
stopped coming to us and as if we were missing a
00:44:22
little something for someone
00:44:23
on the one hand
00:44:25
as if they just felt it from that
00:44:28
knitting person they don’t give him a visa because the plane doesn’t
00:44:30
fly and something else- then on the other hand, we
00:44:34
began to show ourselves more towards and
00:44:35
independently of the association, but there is no
00:44:37
complete autonomy in terms of either, but each
00:44:40
association has
00:44:42
its own leaders, and in
00:44:44
February we had the first general fraternal
00:44:47
communication of ministers without the arrival of brothers
00:44:50
guests from the ocean floor which
00:44:53
you came especially for this communication and I
00:44:55
closely followed the development of the
00:44:57
ministry. Answers to questions from the chairman of
00:45:01
our association, the
00:45:02
American Council, I was glad that
00:45:05
we had an
00:45:09
association on our own, that is, we can resolve
00:45:11
issues before 15 years ago, for
00:45:13
any questions, call there brothers
00:45:15
we came here for six months at a time, we
00:45:16
were now regulating our
00:45:20
own camp courses, we have a
00:45:22
large association of more than 5,000
00:45:24
church members, we are in fifth place in terms of the number of
00:45:26
church members in the brotherhood, that is, we are
00:45:28
sure we are growing, we are grateful to God, and for
00:45:32
some reason I think so have faith,
00:45:35
let’s say then that we
00:45:38
will continue in this direction for a long time, I
00:45:40
believe in it, even if we
00:45:42
conduct it in English, it will not
00:45:45
affect relations with the brotherhood; the principles
00:45:47
must remain the same spiritual
00:45:50
heritage, just in a different language,
00:45:53
that is, only the language remembers no more,
00:45:56
I’ll say about the camp that it was
00:46:00
noticed that our youth
00:46:04
may not be many, I don’t know when they
00:46:06
went to this camp
00:46:08
they had a wife, they wanted to know
00:46:12
this camp, change only the language or there
00:46:15
will be many principles changed later than to
00:46:18
clap your hands, we teach you to dance
00:46:19
on the march of worship of God, American
00:46:22
songs, in front of there there, we will
00:46:24
greet weapons in the distance, find to
00:46:26
serve and some of the police
00:46:28
admitted it as reviews
00:46:31
only the language changed everything else also
00:46:32
the group when it was our task what to change
00:46:35
what to change as my father-in-law said, friends,
00:46:39
as soon as the council of churches deviates
00:46:41
from some point in faith and teaching, we will be the
00:46:44
first to say so; we
00:46:45
will not be in this brotherhood,
00:46:47
you think we are not following this;
00:46:49
believers are not satisfied with the council of churches; you can test their
00:46:52
doctrines of our brotherhood
00:46:54
that brotherhood is first an
00:46:59
inheritance and then a set of structures,
00:47:03
this is not first a structure, but it is still
00:47:06
first a spiritual heritage,
00:47:08
because in the Russian Empire the structure
00:47:11
then changed into an inheritance, it followed a
00:47:14
certain line, so they understood that brother, this
00:47:16
brother is just the world of Alice, then the inheritances of the
00:47:18
structures changed the unions collapsed and people
00:47:20
also remained faithful to God, and
00:47:22
somehow it is even in the Bible, this is how
00:47:25
our brothers are representatives in the light of the church,
00:47:28
we have employees of the covenant church of the
00:47:29
member of the light, that is, we are completely
00:47:31
part of a large brotherhood, I don’t know
00:47:34
how much they treat us like that
00:47:37
ocean, well, it seems that the Americans are there,
00:47:40
if it can be measured and something
00:47:42
good, those sick California Hollywood is
00:47:43
nearby, but we
00:47:47
are surprised by the grace of God and we
00:47:50
are surprised by the grace of God given by the
00:47:52
American churches, we try, at
00:47:54
least we try as much as we can, it does
00:47:56
n’t always work out, but ours position, it is
00:47:59
correct, in my opinion, that is, your
00:48:01
participation in the gospel is
00:48:03
correct, and Gennady Konstantin also
00:48:07
wrote such words that the anniversary of
00:48:09
brotherhood is only a springboard for future
00:48:11
victories, we have cleared a springboard for future
00:48:14
victories from the desire of this righteous man to
00:48:19
convey spiritual awakening on stage by the gospel union in Europe in
00:48:22
America in Russia and in other countries what do
00:48:24
you, as the churches of the International Union of
00:48:26
Churches in America, do for this so
00:48:30
that the
00:48:31
spiritual values ​​of the awakened brotherhood
00:48:34
become the property of other Slavic
00:48:37
churches and maybe even the national union of
00:48:40
America, you have such a
00:48:42
program in general for the future,
00:48:44
well, regarding the program, I have given such an idea,
00:48:48
as for the American
00:48:50
churches, we want to prepare
00:48:54
our young brothers who would be established
00:48:57
in these true ones and in order to
00:49:00
carry this further than the American church,
00:49:03
then for the future, you see, we
00:49:06
still seem to have a shortage of personnel for such brothers
00:49:08
tattoo also in Russian his difficulties of a
00:49:10
person who can celebrate in the Bible
00:49:11
what is here in English
00:49:13
so take it away we tell them brothers
00:49:15
study the Bible ask questions
00:49:18
study wear the teachings of our brotherhood we
00:49:20
must tell the American
00:49:23
we on a private level we do this to us
00:49:25
Americans come to our church with us
00:49:28
all the time people come sporadically, that
00:49:30
is, they ask questions, we answer, but in
00:49:33
terms of systematic work, go to the circus,
00:49:35
where is it while we have these coins, as
00:49:38
for the Slavic unions, we have
00:49:41
contacts, you know, how in America
00:49:44
there are a number of churches that do not belong to
00:49:47
either the council of churches, let’s say not
00:49:50
they are not satisfied with other unions, they will say neither one
00:49:53
union nor the other on some issues, but
00:49:55
they are very strongly favorable to us, and
00:49:58
to them, and if I am a blogger and sometimes I see
00:49:59
some kind of family, well, at this level
00:50:02
we are of course telling, well, I wouldn’t
00:50:06
say what is there besides the question of
00:50:07
the military there, but this question is 8
00:50:10
childbirth with me in the family camp, in
00:50:11
general, would you be number one like
00:50:13
how how do we look at this, the issue of the
00:50:15
appearance of young people, this is Masha after all,
00:50:18
values ​​and we talk about this but
00:50:21
to me it seems that
00:50:23
we are already well known more or less
00:50:25
here, that is, they come and ask questions,
00:50:29
could there be another question
00:50:33
about awakening in America, were there any
00:50:36
centers of awakening for three hundred years, have you
00:50:39
studied them, if there are common signs with the
00:50:43
awakening of which there was in Russia,
00:50:46
you see the question that you asked is a
00:50:48
very long-term question for us, but the fact is
00:50:52
that now that we have held the
00:50:54
English camp, we have become more
00:50:57
interested in these issues and
00:50:59
we have such an idea
00:51:02
that in a year we will complete a certain report;
00:51:06
our brothers are now working on it how
00:51:08
the church developed in the USA is very
00:51:12
interesting, I’m interested in myself, we
00:51:14
have very interesting places, we even
00:51:16
want to go with a group of brother
00:51:18
preachers to these places
00:51:19
where there were awakenings, well, as far as I’m concerned
00:51:22
now, in America we had four
00:51:24
great awakenings,
00:51:26
probably not entirely local answer here are
00:51:29
the great ones, well, Jonathan Edwards before there was such a
00:51:33
preacher, especially when he said
00:51:36
the sermon is a sinner in the hands of an angry
00:51:38
God, this is actually a sermon one of the most
00:51:41
famous sermons in the USA from
00:51:44
there it began from the awakening, but there is
00:51:47
a problem what it was Calvinists
00:51:49
see here the awakening is connected with the
00:51:53
wrong understanding of the Bible which we understand,
00:51:55
therefore, here we need some kind of
00:51:57
compromise, also God is a matter of awakening
00:52:00
baked ri fought with the center fought
00:52:02
when tents were set up in tents, but there
00:52:04
the question of music was a slightly different question of
00:52:06
worshiping God, well, that is, this
00:52:09
theology was not like ours before
00:52:12
there was an awakening somewhere, there was an awakening,
00:52:13
people when they came to God, missionaries were
00:52:16
sent, but the question in the confusion is a little
00:52:18
wrong, so we are now studying this question
00:52:20
about the ministry of Billy Graham, it
00:52:23
refers to one of the great
00:52:26
awakenings in America, well, even my
00:52:27
father-in-law, he was an unbeliever, he says we
00:52:30
all listened to Billy Graham, that is, then there were
00:52:33
too many options and there was no chatting
00:52:35
either, the technology was not yet really great for
00:52:38
repairs, somehow a person who had
00:52:39
the resources of technology, all the presidents invited him, here is
00:52:41
my example, I listened to
00:52:44
several sermons, for example, in
00:52:46
New York there was a gathering in the park more than 500
00:52:49
thousand people I listened to it 2 or 3 pro
00:52:52
peacock that's what I tell you the strongest
00:52:56
sermons with not a single story
00:52:58
touching the soul of a person except the
00:53:01
purest gospel I am surprised how
00:53:03
it is possible only to use the gospel texts on a
00:53:06
selection of the correct ones and in English texts to
00:53:09
call people to repentance to the realization of
00:53:12
their of sinfulness, this of course
00:53:14
greatly impresses me here, well, as it happens with me,
00:53:16
how I need to tell something else
00:53:18
in order to influence the feelings of people,
00:53:20
at the same time the post of this
00:53:24
sermon when the Holy Spirit touched people
00:53:27
people repented among them, mine we are here
00:53:29
he says it influenced my foothills
00:53:31
gods heard only from him says he
00:53:33
spoke everywhere says Eva knew all of
00:53:35
America he went to the president clasped his hands
00:53:38
you see and here I have
00:53:41
a question for you how can we
00:53:44
today’s youth we either share
00:53:48
these issues of
00:53:50
awakening in not other issues as
00:53:53
an act of God’s grace or will we
00:53:55
still need something like this, well, how do
00:53:58
we understand that shaking hands with the president
00:54:01
and getting into politics as this is not our
00:54:03
heritage and yet God acted
00:54:06
how would you answer this question and
00:54:09
this as if in our development, that is,
00:54:12
we need to somehow answer the youth,
00:54:14
they really care about these questions
00:54:15
literally after your speech, we
00:54:18
took off the fee with the brothers there and they
00:54:20
say yes, everything is very good,
00:54:23
brother Benjamin, in general, he told everything there,
00:54:26
he says, but our preachers are
00:54:28
American they were in politics and God did
00:54:30
not act through them and there were awakenings and
00:54:32
no one raised horses after that, as for
00:54:36
us now here to
00:54:39
the audience, so I answered so
00:54:42
truly the separation of church and state
00:54:44
was not open by Billy Graham since the
00:54:46
dynamics are tightened with a hook now we know
00:54:49
this truth we do not have rights and reject this is how
00:54:53
I answered them,
00:54:55
that is, it is not necessary that these brushes
00:54:57
should be open to everyone, that is, as
00:55:00
rivers answered correctly and I agree with
00:55:02
you, I would just like to strengthen this
00:55:04
idea,
00:55:05
you know, the time when Billy Graham
00:55:08
came to the Soviet Union under conditions of persecution
00:55:10
we were in the time of Andropov, double
00:55:12
second sentences of imprisonment, we were given freedom to take without
00:55:15
Mikhail and grab a tour, hard
00:55:17
times, Billy Graham was given the opportunity to
00:55:19
perform in four cities of the Soviet
00:55:21
Union, but no one knew that the
00:55:23
condition for his arrival in the Soviet Union
00:55:25
was his signature, and the Soviet ambassador was
00:55:29
kind, well and at the Soviet embassy he
00:55:34
signed a three-sheet signature that he
00:55:36
undertakes
00:55:37
and one of the points of this subscription is I
00:55:39
undertake not to come into contact with
00:55:41
religious dissidents whom he considers
00:55:43
Soviet and religious 10 well, that is,
00:55:44
we are the persecuted ones, not registered, the tsar
00:55:47
not to come into contact with them therefore
00:55:49
when before and when they raised posters in front of him
00:55:51
that there are 200 prisoners in our country,
00:55:53
remember me when you feel
00:55:55
good, he just lowered his head and made it
00:55:57
mandatory not to make contact, I don’t
00:55:59
talk about music, then in an interview with I, I
00:56:02
didn’t see some posters in Odessa click no
00:56:04
I saw my eyes lowered and closed, but
00:56:07
too many articles were heard about this in
00:56:09
America, that Billy Graham renounced the
00:56:11
persecuted Christians, he did not notice those who
00:56:15
in front of him raised posters and so on, a
00:56:17
few more years passed, the situation
00:56:20
in the Soviet Union changed, the Politburo
00:56:22
disappeared, the Communist Party disappeared the
00:56:25
Soviet Union disappeared, freedom came
00:56:28
to preach the gospel, he was given the opportunity
00:56:31
to participate
00:56:32
in stadiums in a different historical
00:56:35
context of Russia, it turned out that all
00:56:37
communism did not become somehow this one in the
00:56:39
form in which it was until 91, and
00:56:42
Victor Agam from Billy Graham brought a letter of
00:56:46
repentance to the Council of Churches was transferred
00:56:49
his letter where he asks to forgive him for
00:56:52
a compromise so that he would turn away from the prisoners and
00:56:56
this letter was personally handed to Peter by Victor Gamli to Danilo
00:57:00
choupette grew up personally
00:57:02
telling me that I brought a letter from Billy
00:57:04
Graham he asked for forgiveness he admitted yes
00:57:07
as his apostasy as
00:57:10
his cowardice as a compromise like a deal by the Soviet
00:57:15
government so that he would be given visas
00:57:16
to preach in the Soviet Union as a
00:57:19
lack of faith, you
00:57:21
know, when a person knows how to ask for
00:57:23
forgiveness, this also indicates that he is a
00:57:25
strong personality, which means he
00:57:27
understands correctly and we understood these questions correctly
00:57:30
and the Holy Spirit convicted him that
00:57:32
this was his weakness husband or do you
00:57:35
allow the idea that the
00:57:38
separation of church and state was
00:57:41
specifically a revelation of Gennady
00:57:42
Konstantinovich
00:57:43
and this revelation, let’s say, God did not honor
00:57:45
all people, is it possible to say that, I’ll tell
00:57:48
you so here is
00:57:50
the history of this issue until 1700 years, for
00:57:55
1700 years the church was
00:57:57
in captivity
00:58:00
this erroneous doctrine is
00:58:01
cooperation with the state starting
00:58:03
from Constantine, but we were able to
00:58:05
proclaim and condemn and repent at
00:58:09
the congress to perform conciliar repentance for the
00:58:11
sins of the fathers and
00:58:13
introduce in 60 years the practice of a different
00:58:17
economy, and this and this reform
00:58:19
took 60 years, I believe that this is a lesson for
00:58:23
world Christianity Now we need to
00:58:26
make it common knowledge to the whole world, the task is to ensure that
00:58:29
these values ​​are
00:58:31
passed on further, first of all, they are
00:58:33
meaningful and passed on further. We are
00:58:36
not talking about this because we have this
00:58:39
feeling of superiority over them, they are
00:58:41
bad and good, or maybe they
00:58:43
they are good and bad, it’s just that we are
00:58:45
not talking now about who is better, we are talking about that
00:58:48
there is a way, but if a good
00:58:50
person does not stand on a bad path, this is the path of the
00:58:52
wicked, the question is not whether we are
00:58:53
better or not, but a [ __ ] ray, which path is better
00:58:57
in the eyes of God and we we say that the path
00:58:59
of independence is better than the path of
00:59:01
dependence because it pleases God
00:59:03
because it is his English because it is
00:59:05
something in the spirit of the First Apostolic Church and
00:59:07
this is the springboard for future
00:59:09
victories, understand this experience, perceive and
00:59:12
pass on and multiply it and
00:59:15
share this spiritual bread with its
00:59:17
English unions on anal unions
00:59:19
above you who are open to
00:59:21
perceive the truth here in America a
00:59:23
huge number came out, this is the
00:59:25
number one country for
00:59:28
missionaries who were shot to
00:59:30
the West, this is the number one country for the number of
00:59:32
donations for
00:59:35
missionary projects around the world and
00:59:37
this is the country it Today I am incurably ill with
00:59:41
this scum of the merging of the church of
00:59:43
politics, the church of business, the church and the army, the
00:59:46
church of sports, everything is like in one cocktail,
00:59:48
everything is mixed, maybe this is
00:59:50
your mission to be this salt so that
00:59:53
this small army of ascetics of people
00:59:56
who understand sensibly, we choose,
00:59:58
grow up in this truth, perceive her
01:00:01
can today this spirit of awakening
01:00:04
pass on further
01:00:06
can this be your mission you know
01:00:09
English you know Russian currency
01:00:12
educated in young enough and
01:00:14
may God bless
01:00:16
may God stand more in you your
01:00:20
ministry 2 you do thank you for the
01:00:23
