=== God's Elite Vessels (02:51) ===

[00:00:00]  Your book, Vessels of Fire and Glory, is powerful.
[00:00:04]  Yes.
[00:00:05]  Why do you believe the book is more relevant now since its release?
[00:00:12]  When I first wrote Vessels of Fire and Glory, we were assuming a lot of things were going to happen.
[00:00:20]  That went against the grain because Vessels of Fire and Glory speaks of this.
[00:00:26]  God is pulling to himself an elite group of people that want more, that believe God can use them, that believe they're on earth for more than just to survive.
[00:00:40]  And it's taken from one verse in 2 Timothy 2:20 where it says, in a great house, they're not only vessels of honor, but vessels of dishonor.
[00:00:50]  Everyone watching knows Christians that are lukewarm.
[00:00:54]  They're not ready.
[00:00:55]  They don't want it.
[00:00:56]  I describe the church as made up of turkeys and eagles.
[00:01:01]  And those eagles know they don't belong in the turkey yard.
[00:01:05]  Know they can't go to a dead church.
[00:01:07]  No, they can't stand the idea that we're supposed to be nice, vile, and capitulate to the expanding darkness.
[00:01:16]  Jesus said the kingdom suffers violence and the violent take it by force.
[00:01:21]  Every Christian hero that we have, and my great one, who was a dear friend of Jim Baker, was Billy Graham.
[00:01:30]  My model was Billy Graham, who stood against communism, who stood against liberalism.
[00:01:37]  He stood against the new morality.
[00:01:38]  I remember when he said the new morality is nothing but the old immorality.
[00:01:43]  We need to understand that the people God will use today will look radical to almost everyone except the lost.
[00:01:52]  The lost get it.
[00:01:54]  When they see the lame walk, the blind see, and the deaf hear, when they see compassion expressed, they run to it.
[00:02:03]  I know because I'm watching it right now in California.
[00:02:07]  But I want to compel people that this book is a manual to help you shake off any doubt that God can use you in the last days.
[00:02:17]  It will speak to.
[00:02:18]  One section talks about modern crimes against the Holy Spirit and the contaminated crowd, meaning that Christians are running after entertainment, but that's not you.
[00:02:31]  That's not your heart.
[00:02:32]  That's not what you want.
[00:02:35]  You leave those settings and your heart says, this isn't it.
[00:02:40]  This isn't real.
[00:02:42]  I need more.
[00:02:43]  I need something deep.
[00:02:45]  I need an anointing.
[00:02:47]  Miracles are not just behind the pulpit.
[00:02:50]  They're in everyday life.
