 right good morning everyone welcome to a new week of classes okay so before we start can any one of us please lead us in prayer let's just start with the word of prayer this week and one of us please lead us in prayer go ahead Charles thank you so much for this wonderful morning it's a morning here in east Africa I believe for mornings in many other countries but we thank you for a time like this one the Lord as we continue to learn our past to learn the past of church to learn the missions to to be equipped to be encouraged because the more we know the past of the church we will be able to plan for the future and Lord there is a reason as to why you are teaching us this now Lord we are set we are expectant we can't wait to hear from you follow your servant our past Paul Lord I pray that you will guide him we will talk through him or also Lord you open our inner ears that this thing will go deeper than hearing so that we should internalize it may get on it and be able to apply it in our ministry in our lives we pray this trusting and breathing in Jesus' question name amen amen amen thank you Charles okay so last week we looked at how revival started out of Jerusalem from Jerusalem it moved the outpouring the revival fire moved into Antioch and then from Antioch it went into Asia Minor went into Europe and finally went into Rome as well so we looked at that then we also looked at the man Apostle Paul who was a carrier of revival so we looked at his wonderful journey right his first missionary journey his second missionary journey his third journey and how through that revival spark that was there inside him he was able to do such marvelous work for the Lord right we see the number of churches that was planted we see that he went into hostile environments and he was able to start a community of believers and you know do a work of God in these places and we looked at his final journey as well as he was going to you know his going to Rome what happened there as well so we completed this chapter we're going on to chapter three before we go to chapter three anybody have any kind of questions any thoughts that you have on what we've been studying please feel free to share or if you have any questions to go ahead and type it in the chat you know we covered quite a lot any questions any thoughts all right so I want to encourage you each one of you if you can also spend time in these especially Paul's missionary journeys personally it has been a real encouragement every time I go back to his life studying what he has done it you know there's this spark of fire that gets reignited every time and the Lord really encourages us so I want to encourage you as well go ahead and you know cover the book of Acts study it I'm sure the Lord will lead you to okay let's move to chapter three page 27 on the notes now in this chapter we're going to learn there's going to be a lot of dates and events but what we want to emphasize is not about the dates but more on the events right and what happened during those events now so this chapter we will travel through 2000 years of church history and we look at what are the significant things that impacted the church and significant people who impacted the church like like reformers we will look at study also a few reformers few revivalists and missionaries and their missionary movements and how it impacted the church as a whole so why do we want to learn as Charles mentioned in his prayer also the reason we want to learn from church history is because we learn from the past we can gain insights from the past and you know learn how to try to understand how God works you know in the church he has a pattern in which now we are not saying that okay God will work only this way God works in his own ways but you know he has a pattern for his for the church and so that's one reason and secondly we must know church history we must understand it we must you know interpret it the right way so that even when as we make decisions for the future we can look at church history and say hey okay this is something that probably worked out or this is something that I didn't really work out these are the challenges that they faced of course the culture the scenario is different but there's a lot we can learn and going further also so you will have subjects like apologetics and world religions and so these subjects even through these subjects you will learn about how you know it's important to give a defense and so church history will come into play in each of our lives if you know as God has called us to minister to people so let's look at Deuteronomy chapter 4 and verse 9 can one of us please read that Deuteronomy chapter 4 and verse 9 Deuteronomy chapter 4 verse 9 only take heed to yourself and diligently keep yourself lest you forget the things your eyes have seen and let the depart from your heart all the days of your life and teach them to your children and your grand children amen amen thank you Charles so we see here Deuteronomy Deuteronomy the word Deuto means a second time right now God is you know exerting Moses any saying here and this was only take heed to yourself and diligently keep yourself and so the entire book of Deuteronomy is only a reminder of what happened when the people came out of Israel right sorry when the Israelites came out of Egypt so it's like God is telling Moses see there are new generations coming up they don't know what happened in the past so if you if you read the book of Deuteronomy it says everywhere you'll see remember remember when God took your when you were slaves in Egypt remember we took you out through God's mighty hand remember that God part of the seas remember so there's a lot of remember in this book why because the new generations will not know what happened maybe some of them are wondering why are we living in a desert or you know in the middle of nowhere where are we going to and so Moses writes here and he says teach them to your children and to your grandchildren so God instructed his people to repeat stories of the past and make it known to the new generations right so he did not want he did not want them to forget what their fathers and their forefathers had seen learned and experienced right so so it's important right uh let's also read Joshua chapter 4 1 to 7 it's quite a long chapter but let's read that Joshua chapter 4 verses 1 to 7 and one of us please read that one and it came to pass when all the people had completely crossed over the Jordan with the Lord spoke to Joshua saying take for yourselves twelve men from the people one man from every tribe and command them saying take for yourselves twelve stones from here out to the midst of Jordan place where the priest's feet stood firm they'll carry them over with you and leave them in the lodging place where you lodged tonight then Joshua called the twelve men who made a point it from the children of Israel one man from every tribe and Joshua said to them cross over before the ark of the Lord your God into the midst of the Jordan and each one of you take up stone on his shoulder according to the number of the tribes of the children of Israel that this may be a sign among you when your children ask in time to come saying what do these stones mean to you then you shall answer them that the waters of the Jordan were cut off through the ark of the covenant of the Lord when it crossed over the Jordan the waters of the Jordan were cut off and these stones shall be a memorial to the children of Israel forever amen thank you Christopher so we see here something very interesting God has brought the people out of the Israelites out of Egypt gone through all the things that have happened now they've passed the river Jordan the next step is get into the promised land right so God did not say okay okay all of you Joshua now you're in charge so just go into the promised land just walk in no he doesn't do that what does he say set up he he instructs Joshua to set up a kind of a memorial so so that when people come this way they'll say hey what is this memorial about and then they can tell the story hey we were slaves in Egypt for 400 odd years God in his mighty hand brought us out and he took us through the desert and these are things that are happened in during the wilderness and then he brought us to Jordan and he helped us to walk into the promised land so a story is being told and so the succeeding generations will remember what the Lord has done for them so so we see here that it's not only about us but God himself is is you know he emphasizes on remembering the past and there is a verse which says do not remember the past but press on ahead yes but that is us that is you know taking into context you know God is telling in the book of Isaiah he's exhorting them he's saying forget about the past of all the sins that you are living and forget about all of that but look ahead because I will bring you out of captivity that is context but it is important that we remember that God what God has done in the past he expects us to go back remember and when we do that this will inspire faith in our hearts right there may be battles that we all are facing day after day but these you know as we go on from continuing we will study a lot of people in church history like revivals and revivalist missionaries and the work that they have done and the reason we want to study them that's because they will inspire faith in each of our hearts they were normal people just like you and me but they did extraordinary works and and so we can believe God to work in similar in a similar manner in our lives so that we can also gain victories as well right so let's look at we're going to divide this into the first century church the second century church and the third century church right and then we'll go on to the fourth century as well so this week let's look at first and second century let's see if we can cover this right now as I said there's going to be a lot of dates but more than the dates what we want to learn are key events and key people involved during the first century church right so the word AD is an abbreviation for Anno Domini which is a Latin phrase which means the year of the Lord and and so let's look at what happened AD 30 approximately about AD 30 Jesus Christ is crucified he rises from the dead AD 30 the day of Pentecost and then after the Pentecost we know what happens right the revival just moves out AD 52 Apostle Thomas reaches India and founds a church in India AD 64 Nero launches persecution to the Christians and he sets fire Rome and then later on AD 60 to 66 to 68 Paul and Peter are put to death again by Nero now here's an important event AD 70 the church in Jerusalem right is destroyed if you remember if we read through the gospels the people used to meet at Solomon's colonel right why was that because the construction of the temple was happening right the where the Jews could come and offer their sacrifice so there were only portions of the temple that were opened that time but by this time the temple was already ready but it was destroyed by the Roman generals an emperor named Titus after that AD 70 AD 90 there was a council called the council of Jamnia now this council was important why because in this council the they made an acknowledgement that the Old Testament Hebrew Testament was considered to be canonical which means it was said okay this is the canon of the Hebrew scriptures these are the you know the books that have been considered to be in the Old Testament and so it was during this time AD 90 the council of Jamnia where the whole you know the the articles were put together and they said okay this is the Old Testament canonical scriptures right so it was set during that time so all this is happening in the first 100 years after the after Jesus's death after the church was birthed so 100 years right AD 95 the book of revelations was written again these are letters that were you know we studied about Apostle Paul as well and he wrote many letters they were not yet put together right so Paul letters to different places other disciples also write letters to different churches but they were not compiled like how we see it now right so later on even that gets compiled so AD 98 Apostle John dies AD 99 all New Testament writings are completed right so we see in the first 100 years quite a lot of material or writing things have been compiled right the council of Jam Jamnia which is AD 90 90 years after the resurrection of Jesus we see that the Old Testament Hebrew canonical scriptures was confirmed right now why is this important in church history because we need to know that you know so if you remember the Lord Jesus you know he they asked him to come forward and read and he he came and he opened and he found the scriptures of Isaiah right so it was not yet they were only basically scrolls of probably different books right so we could say maybe maybe Deuteronomy was rolled up and kept and and so they were kept in the temple in in different scrolls it was not put together right but now about 90 years later in the first century church the book was compiled the Bible of the Old Testament Hebrew scriptures compiled and put together so it's a very important event right and we also look at other writings book of revelations Apostle John dies and and so this is the first 100 years of the church right let's look at the second century now by the time the second century begins all the disciples have passed away right the disciples of Jesus Christ have passed away right so now comes a new generation right the last person to die is Apostle John now we do see that some of his followers or people that he trained up take on the work of the ministry as well but the second century church the second year this was was a very very difficult period because why while persecution was continuing to happen heresies became a danger in the church right now these heresies just like how we see you know Paul remember we studied about Paul and how he wrote to the Thessalonians why because the Thessalonians people said that okay Jesus has already come and gone so Paul sits down and he writes he says no don't you know that you know these things should happen only then the the antichrist will come and all of that so the same thing the enemy is using heresies and false teachings to affect the church so what are some of the false teachings during that time first one Gnosticism when we say Gnostic it's a it's a new age movement it's more over it's more like mind over body or you know a claim of a secret knowledge right so there are many claims about many kinds of you know if we read about the new age movements they sound very nice right they sound very interesting oh this is I can get peace of mind or my body I can you know all my sicknesses can go if I get involved in the new age movement I can have you know karma whatever all these things are so these Gnostic movements new age movements began to creep into the church right so some people started saying hey probably this is what happened in the church where people came and said I have a you know a secret knowledge a secret understanding that if we do this if we go to a mountain and sit there and pray for about 30 days then we will find peace of mind you know these all these new kind of movements and so people had to deal with that then we had Marcionism which was a group of people who came and said okay I see that the Old Testament has got so many books so many letters so much of writing so let us reduce the scriptures let us select certain scriptures or let us select certain books and only study from that book right now that became a problem because remember in the 1890 council of Jamnir it was confirmed the Old Testament was brought together put together and it was confirmed as a canon of the Hebrew scriptures but now this group of people are coming and saying we can remove off probably certain books from the Old Testament and only study what is required so then that again was a problem thirdly Montanism now this is a very interesting you know if we do a deeper study on Montanism it's you know they're very very charismatic in their movement in the sense that they would appear like they were just doing something right but they were not led by the Holy Spirit it was more of the work of the flesh so Montanism was they led people astray through new revelations new prophecies and you know passing judgments on Christians and so we see that in the second century church these heresies or these problems continued but here's the thing it was there even in the first century church but did the work of the Holy Spirit stop did the outpouring or the revival stop it did not stop right was there persecution in the early church yes was there persecution in the first century yes was there heresies yes was there false teachings yes but did it stop the outpouring or the revival move of God no it did not right we must understand that it is the same devil doing the same tricks then and he's doing the same tricks now right and so we must be aware we must be aware of what is happening in the church right so let's look at the second century right so some of the key events to remember in the first century is of course we all studied it the church in Jerusalem all that happened through the apostles church in Jerusalem 8070 that was destroyed 8090 the council of jan mea apostle Paul apostle John dies so these are key events that we can remember now the second century church so hundred years of the church is over let's look at the next hundred years of what's happening in the church right so we saw that these three things are prevalent now Paulic up a person was a disciple of apostle John now apostle John was the last disciple so he lived about a hundred years right and and so he raised up many leaders so Paulic up was one of the leaders now we don't know where he raised him up but he was appointed bishop in Smyrna which was a church right so but so what we see here is even in the first century church Paul writes to you know the church in Ephesus he's writing to Timothy he says there are bishops there are deacons and all of it so we see some kind of a hierarchy that was you know it was not probably you know it was not a steady or something that was already formalized throughout all the churches but only in this church we could see that okay there was kind of a hierarchy but in the second century church this whole thing of bishops deacons leaders was already set in place right so it was all set in place so the second century church would have seen all the churches would have seen you know leaders bishops deacons they would have seen a hierarchy being set in place already so he was appointed then there was Ignatius of Antioch again a student of apostle John now here Ignatius of Antioch was a very well-learned man and then he was able to write letters he wrote seven letters to churches and the many of them were about the deity of Christ about communion about the structure of the church about bishops about deacons their responsibilities and all of this but here's the thing remember second century also persecution of Christians was very strong the Roman persecution was highly you know involved in it was like they were eagles behind the Christians right anything that the Christians do the Romans wanted to cause persecution so he wrote this letter to the churches but finally they they found him he was captured Ignatius of Antioch he was taken to Rome where he was martyred right and he was martyred by being fed to wild animals and wild birds so it was a gruesome death but why was this because of what they you know they they were able to impact the church and so that caused you know a whole problem to the Romans as well and so after this we will we see a lot of writings where they say apology right now apology here does not does not say okay these writers the Christians are apologizing to the Romans no they are writing the word apology is to give a defense of their faith Peter writes there in first the first Peter he says be ready to give a apology or a defense for the hope that is within you so many writers rise up to write apologies or apologize and so some of them were written to to the to the Romans some of them were written to the Christian within the church because of the heresies and and and some of them were written to people of other faiths as well right so you will see a rise of apologists in the second generation church now the reason we called them apologists it's not like how it is now okay you're an apologist you're a pastor no the reason the reason they are called apologists was because they were able to give a defense of the gospel right against the wrong things that was penetrating within the church right and so there was a person named Justin Martyr 80 155 he was an early Christian apologist one of the most famous apologists and he was a prolific writer which means he wrote a lot about the scriptures he wrote about how the grace of Jesus Christ justification by faith and all of this and he wrote his apology and many people you know who had gone away from God or gone into Gnosticism and all these other beliefs came back to the Lord right now it's interesting that you know there was no preaching of course there was a lot of preaching in different places but even these writings were able to impact people's lives if we study about Justin Martyr people who read their letters would weep they would cry oh I've gone away from this and they would come back to the faith right Bishop Paulic up is another person another bishop and he was a he was a powerful bishop history says that he was most probably in Ephesus because he was under under John the disciple of John now he again wrote a lot of apologies which is books writing material saying that this is how the church is this is what our forefathers thought this is what we should follow we should turn away from all this Gnostic teachings and all of it again his writing went throughout the church different churches and finally the Romans were able to catch him and he again was martyred right now as we go on I just want to put this forth that you know we may see a lot of this martyrdom work now you may wonder why are we studying all this it's only it should not cause any fear inside us right it should only encourage us to see people were willing to give their lives for the gospel of Jesus Christ and it's not possible to do that if we are if we don't have that revival fire that fire of the Holy Spirit inside us we will not be able to come to this place but they were able to right then there was a leader named Irenaeus again so just like you know how we raise up leaders now it was the same way at that time right where you know John and under John you had Irenaeus you had Polycarp you had so all these leaders went to different places and they wrote to different kinds of styles right now Irenaeus he was roast against the heresies and he wrote a thorough book on Gnosticism right he writes what Gnosticism is if we you know if we read about Irenaeus he was a powerful writer he wrote a thorough book he said okay this is what heresies are this is what Gnosticism does this is what the word of God is and this is what God has called us to do he writes this letter and after writing this letter he goes to the bishop right and he says this is the letter this is an apology that I've written against the heresies that are happening within the church approve it and send it out to the churches again now they they do that and you know since these people are men full of wisdom and great writers the letters go everywhere again the Romans get to know about it they catch him he again was martyred so then later on Clement of Alexandria another man from Egypt he was a great christian theologian what he did was he went into Alexandria now remember that the gospel in the first century had gone all across Asia and Europe so this person named Clement of Alexandria he wrote to the Christians in Alexandria he wrote three books and what was his books his books was he was expounding the teachings of the bible so probably he went into the Old Testament or he looked at a few scriptures few letters from the New Testament he went deep he began to expound he said this is what the scripture says it's not about what we are about all these Gnostic and all these other New Age movements it's about the gospel and so he expounded three books expounding you know the Christian faith now what happens later on he the their own Christian leaders catch him and they say that you know you're involved in false teachings and he was put into prison and he went through tough time later on he was martyred as well finally in 8190 a person named Pateannus of Alexandria he goes into India and why does he go there because the church started in India and the Christian leaders in India don't know what to do now we know that India as a nation has lots of you know idol worship and other kinds of gods known to have the most number of gods in this world and and so Pateannus goes to India because the Christian leaders in India says please come we don't have any you know any leaders here to teach us to train us so he goes willing to let go of all the you know the comforts of his home and they go into India and again does a powerful work in India the churches established leaders are raised this is most probably during this time where the churches in India especially began to see a hierarchy okay so you got bishops you got you know pastors deacons leaders and things like that so hierarchy began to be established and most of it was done by this man Pateannus but he was later on nabbed by the Indians who later on and later on was martyred so we see here the second century church right one of the things that that always comes to my mind is this that which is born of the spirit will always bring fruit but that which is born of the flesh profits nothing right always remember this that which is born of the spirit now when we look at the first century church it was born of the spirit right the work the outpouring happened it was it was a work of the Holy Spirit now it's like a fire which you know a fire by nature spreads you can't tell a fire to not spread it is a nature of fire to spread right and so we see that that same fire from the first church first century church moved on to the second century church right you see the same aspects of the Holy Spirit working people were willing to give their lives for the gospel people were willing they were unafraid they were empowered by the Holy Spirit God given wisdom to write these books to come against heresies that was happening within the church and you see that what is born of the flesh is always sorry born of the spirit is always a work of the spirit it will bear fruit now something that is born of the flesh later on we see in the fourth century church we see that so many things are born of the flesh within the church it it went on to be a work of the flesh and it didn't profit anything right so even as we in our ministries and anything that we do remember that what is born of the spirit will always give birth to the work of the spirit what is born of the flesh will die away right it will not profit anything yes Charles you raised your hand go ahead Charles Charles do you have anything to say do you have any questions see that you raised your hand all right Mr. Manohar says do we have any further information about ministry of Platinius of Alexandra in India yes there is there is information but it's not it does not there's no information of you know where all what are the places he went in India but yes there is information of what kind of ministry he did when he went into India but not in detail so maybe you can look online go to google check but from from what we know this is what he did he he came into India and was able to do a work there so yes I think Charles is yeah welcome uncle yeah anybody else is Charles I think he raised your hand again yes okay I wanted to know okay whether the three books that Clemente of Alixantia wrote can be found on on Google under the Arichat Christian writings is it okay thank you for that question Charles yes so I didn't really check whether these books are available on Google so maybe you know in your free time after your sessions today we can check but most probably I'm sure that there were articles of these books copies made why because it was not sent to one church right it was sent to a bishop and this this this whole article was given to different churches so so it could be that there were additional copies made but it also could be that what happened was because of the Roman persecution the Romans were you know always looking for a way to wipe out Christianity they did not want Christianity to be there so it could be also that many of the writing materials of these great leaders were burnt so for example later on we'll read study about John Haas and many other missionaries and revivalists you know when they were burnt to the stake or they were you know when they were martyred they would usually burn all their writings in a you know in an act of defiance like it's like saying the Romans are saying if you believe in this Christian faith you will burn and the writings also will burn so it was you know it was like an act of defiance so many of the writings may not be available right their personal writings may not be available because they were all destroyed by the Roman you know leaders and because of the Roman persecution so it also came later on we will study it also came to the point where you know they wanted to just wipe out even the Old Testament scriptures and the Bible itself there were plenty of attempts by the Romans to you know just get rid of the Bible but I praise God that that did not happen so yes Charles to answer your question it could be there you could check online but if it's not not available it's only because most of the material was destroyed during the time of martyrdom I hope that answers your question Charles thank you Charles okay okay so we've completed the first century church first century is something that we all know but it's interesting to see the second century church and the work that they did the leaders that were raised up these wonderful men of God so so so empowered by the Holy Spirit they still were able to impact many lives now we must understand that even during this time this persecution the Roman persecution the church only began to multiply right it's not that okay persecution is happening and Nero and all of these other leaders Roman emperors came and they tried to destroy the faith yes they tried to destroy it but here's the thing the fire was spreading the work of the Holy Spirit was spreading the word of God was moving so even as the persecution is rising we see that the church also began to spread right and so the more the persecution the more the church began to spread and does this happen now yes if we read about what's happening in places like you know I've used this example before but it is said that Iran has one of the fastest growing churches in the world Iran right now when I say church it's not just one church location but I'm talking about the body of Christ as a whole in Iran Iran the most is a persecuted country for Christians but Iran is the fastest growing church in the world and it's slowly spreading into Iraq and and other places where you know it's Muslim dominated nations more the persecution more the gospel is spreading right and so next week what we'll do is we will look at probably we can just look at a few aspects of the third century church since we have a little more time right so 100 years 200 years now 300 the third century right 200 to 300 years what's happening now Turkey becomes a Christian state in 80 200 right many leaders now these are very famous leaders theological writers now a lot of these people are people these Christian theologians are you know in the first century church we see that you know not many of them were educated except for Paul and a few of them but here in the second and third century many of them were well educated all right they were lawyers they were businessmen and they were willing to let go of all of that for the scriptures and so we see great theologians like origin d'Altulian Clement of Alexandria right all these great leaders in the church and there was an emperor named Severus Roman emperor in the what he does is he says no more conversion to Christianity now this is a hard law that is passed right something that's happening even now in in our nation of India especially in the north of India where you know at certain places where you're not allowed to become a Christian so the same the rule here was nobody can convert to Christianity but Christianity continued to spread people continued to accept the gospel people continued to accept the Lord Jesus the law was passed but nothing is the remember the Holy Spirit is greater than any law when I say law I mean the law of the land now that does not mean that we don't obey the law yes we obey the law of the land but remember the Holy Spirit is above that the Lord is above all of that so the emperor of Rome writes a letter says anybody who converts to Rome sorry converts to Christianity will be put to death what happens nobody is getting scared and saying oh I can't become a Christian nobody's saying oh you know I want to let go of this no the church began to spread even more the great Christian lawyer d'Altulian and Carthage who was an apologist in North Africa writes about you know the church they began to write about something called as his praxis it's a it's a book that he writes and in this book he talks about the Trinity that is the father the son and the Holy Spirit and he's the first person to use the word Trinity so d'Altulian is the first one to use the word Trinity so the word Trinity comes only 200 years after the birth of the church right so this is a important event that we can remember d'Altulian a great Christian theologian lawyer he sits down he and probably with Carthage who's from North Africa sits down and writes books and tracks about the gospel of Jesus and emphasizing on the on the Trinity the father son and the Holy Spirit and how they are three persons one in a sense and this material again went out to different churches right now imagine or picture this they're writing all of this but in the back of their mind probably what's happening is hey if I get caught I'm going to die but that did not stop them they knew that if they get caught the Romans are not going to clap for them the Romans are going to take them and martyr them but that did not stop them right and d'Altulian he writes wonderful he writes an expose on the book of Isaiah and different kinds of letters in the Old Testament talking about how the work of God is how the Holy Spirit works and many lives were touched the church began to expand here you got the Romans trying to you know wipe out Christianity put an emperor service Severus says no conversion to Christianity here we are seeing these great men of God writing books impacting lives many lives you know touched and the church just expanding so we run out of time so we will close today we will pick up from tomorrow we'll pick up from this third century we'll get into the fourth century as well and we can continue to study on this it's it's really interesting so don't be alarmed about these dates and all of it and also the number of people but what you can do is just probably mark these important events and people that caused a difference within the church community during that time so all right so let's just close quickly close in prayer and we'll pick up from tomorrow let's pray Father we want to thank you for this wonderful day we thank you God from for your word a lot we thank you for what we've been able to study from the first century in the second century church Lord these great men of God empowered by the Holy Spirit doing a wonderful work of God and Lord even as we study this we pray that you will minister to each of our hearts Lord that you will revive that spark of fire in our hearts the work of the Holy Spirit to do what you have called us to do that we may be empowered by your Holy Spirit to fulfill every call and purpose and vision that you have for our lives we thank you God for this wonderful opportunity to study your word we speak of blessing over your over each and every student of God bless them in their studies of God we thank you Lord in Jesus name we pray amen amen thank you very much have a wonderful day see it tomorrow amen thank you God bless you God bless thank you God thank you thank you
