Telling The TRUTH
050314 Telling The Truth 28 Minute Program
[music] You're listening to "Telling the Truth" from Triple T. Christian Youth Ministries, "Telling the Truth to and through teenagers." Here is Triple T. Founder and President, George Dooms. Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. The Gospel of the Lord Jesus has got to be shared with people like you and me. Listen to 1 Corinthians 15-1, New King James Version. Moreover, brethren, I declare to you the gospel which I preach to you, which also you received and in which you stand. God wants you and me to understand the gospel is the death, the burial, the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. That's it. And that message has got to be proclaimed to people who need the Lord. They have got to be told to admit they have sinned, to believe on the Lord Jesus, and to tell others that they believe. God holds you and me responsible for sharing our faith with those who need to know Him. Will you? I hope you will. I hope you will take yourself seriously and understand it because God loves you. Loves you so much that He sent His Son to die so that you could live by believing on Him and that you could have the opportunity to share that good news with people everywhere consistently, positively, today. So we have what we call God's ABCs and to get yours, simply call us. 812 867 2418, we will send you as many as you can prayerfully present to people who need the Lord. God loves you, so call 812 867 2418. (upbeat music) Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong, let all that you do be done with love. First Corinthians 16, 13, and 14, New King James Version. Are you watching? Are you standing fast in the faith? Are you brave? Are you strong? Do you love others? God says those are the things we are to do according to His purpose. So in the middle of the battle, stand fast in the faith. Do you have faith in the Lord Jesus Christ personally? Have you admitted you have sinned? Have you believed on Him? Have you told other people about Him? You have that privilege today to go with the gospel and to share your faith in Christ with others. But do you love them enough to do this? Listen that phrase again from the Scriptures. Let all that you do be done with love. Love conquers everything. God is love, and God so loved the world that He gave. He gave His only begotten Son, the Lord Jesus Christ. Now we are to get the gospel to people. Would you go with the gospel today? Call 812-867-2418 and ask for the ABCs of Salvation to be sent to you, and we will do just that and let you have them immediately. Call 812-867-2418. Listen, please, to Galatians 5-1, New King James Version. Stand fast, therefore, in the liberty by which Christ has made us free. Do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage. We have been set free, you and I. If we have believed in the Lord Jesus, and because we have been set free, we are to break free of that yoke of bondage, which has been ours to keep us from doing what God would have us to do. Today, you have a wonderful opportunity to share the good news of the saving power of the Lord Jesus with people who need to know Him. Let me give you four admonitions. One, read the word of God consistently. Two, pray all the time under every circumstance. Three, find a prayer partner, another believer, and pray for those who need the Lord. Four, go with the gospel to those who need to know Him. Jesus Christ personally. We put together God's ABCs, The Plan of Salvation. Tomorrow, we are going to spell them out for you on this broadcast. Please listen. But if you would like to have copies of God's ABCs to give to people who need Jesus, call 812-867-2418. We will send them to you, and you can give them one by one to people who need the Lord. That's 812-867-2418. Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Ephesians 6-10, New King James. Are you strong enough to share the gospel with people? Let them know how to get to heaven. For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, Romans 3-23. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus, our Lord, Romans 6-23. Believe on the Lord Jesus, for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that who believes in Him should not perish whenever a lasting life, John 3-16. Confess Christ publicly. That if you confess with your mouth, the Lord Jesus, and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved for with the heart when believes under righteousness and with the mouth, confession is made to salvation. Romans 10, 9, and 10, all these New King James. These scriptures are available to you in printed form to give to people who need the Lord. Call now 812-867-2418 and let us know how many of God's ABCs you will prayerfully distribute to people who need Jesus. Call 812-867-2418 and tell us how many you will prayerfully get out to people who need the Lord. Pray and go with the gospel. God is available to provide precisely what you need to be His ambassador. Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Ephesians 6-11, New King James. You understand what that's saying? The devil hates you. He despises you and he wants to stop you from doing anything to serve the Lord especially when you are trying to get people to understand and hear the gospel, if indeed you are. So put on the whole armor of God. God presents all of this in Ephesians 6. Now with the armor on, go to battle. Tell people about Jesus. Know that the devil wants to stop you but greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world. So take the plan of salvation and present it to people who need Jesus. Pray diligently. Get a person who also needs the Lord to pray with you. Read the scriptures together and then go with the gospel. There are people waiting for you to tell them how to get to heaven. God's ABCs present the whole thing in concise scriptural form. So get your ABCs today. Call 812-867-2418. They're free. 812-867-2418. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness into heavenly places. Ephesians 612, New King James Version. God wants us to understand that we are not wrestling with things that are tangible, but the intangible deeds of the devil and we have got to stand. Put on the whole armor of God, the Bible says, and having done that, go to battle. Make sure you have the word of God, the sword of the Spirit, and your shield of faith, and pray consistently. When you have the armor ready, then you can go to battle and the battle is the Lord's. But share with the people who need Jesus. God's ABCs admit you have sinned. Believe on Christ and confess Him publicly. And the scriptures that go with each of those phrases are available to you in printed form so you can present them to people who can go to heaven when you tell them how. Call 812-867-2418. Order your ABCs today. Get them out to people who need Jesus. Become a Christian communicator. Call now 812-867-2418. There are people waiting to know how they can spend eternity with God. Will you tell them how? Do you remember the battle cry hymns? Stand up, stand up for Jesus. Let's do Ephesians 6-9, New King James. Therefore, took up the whole armor of God that you may be able to withstand in the evil day and having done all to stand. Will you do that? Will you put on God's armor? Put on the breastplate of righteousness, the helmet of salvation. Put on your gospel boots and put that truth of belt tightly around your waist. Go with the gospel, praying, using the Word of God, the sword of the Spirit, using your shield of faith. Present the plan of salvation to people who need Jesus. God's ABCs are available to you and we are thrilled that thousands of them have been distributed. But do you have yours? Are you communicating Christianity today to people who need to know the Lord Jesus? Call 812-867-2418. Order your ABCs. Get them to people. We believe that you can do something that nobody else could do if you would do what you're supposed to do. There are people you can reach. I can't, but you can. Call 812-867-2418. Expect eternal dividends. God is willing if you are. Every Saturday at 7.27 p.m. you are invited to attend a live youth event at Triple T, 13,000 US-41 North at Booneville in Harmony Road, mid-way between I-64 and Evansville Regional Airport. Every first Saturday, a good news club for ages 6 to 9 is available in a separate room. For more information, call 812-867-2418 or visit www.tripletchristianyouth.org. Three of the hallmarks of Triple T Christian Youth's Ministries is we are aggressively evangelistic. We're Bible-believing, and we are church-connected. Today we have with us Pastor Richard Comer from Fort Branch Wesleyan Church, Gibson County, Indiana. And I'm going to ask him some questions. Richard, when was the first time you heard about Triple T, and how did you hear about it? When I was pastoring in church in Owensville, Indiana, one of my daughters, I had a friend who invited her to come down here. And the friend that invited her was another pastor's kid from a different church, one of your neighboring churches. And so before long, that daughter brought another daughter, and before long, we had lots of Comer kids, not lots, but three or four. And we praise the Lord for that. Remember how long ago that was? That would have been back in the late '80s, so probably 25 years ago. Wow, and then you left the area, and you moved over to the St. Louis area, and I believe you worked in maintenance at a college. Yeah, Lyndon Wood University worked there for about 12 years. About 12 years. You asked me a question, is Triple T still going, and are you still doing Saturday nights? And I said, yes, and you said, I think I'll come and check it out. That's absolutely right. I knew it was good for my girls when I was here several years before, and I felt it'd be good for some of the kids at the church that I was pastoring now. And so you came with just one or two, I think that first Saturday that you came back? Probably a couple of kids, yeah. And had just a very few come for quite a while. It was kind of up and down. And then they began to invite their friends, and their friends' friends. Yeah. Yeah, we actually, over the past four or four and a half years, we've had anywhere from a dozen to 18 or 20. In fact, we've had over 20 on one occasion, but we've had to bring a couple of vans. And that's a wonderful problem to have. And the neat thing is that a lot of these kids had never known the plan of salvation. They'd never heard the gospel before, and their friends invited them here, and they heard about Jesus, and many of them accepted Christ. And our thing that we say every Saturday night is tomorrow is Sunday. So get up and get ready to go to your favorite Bible-believing church in Sunday school, and don't just sit there, but get involved. And now you've had some kids that didn't go to church before. They're now coming, some regularly, but some at least from time to time. Is that correct? Yes. And that's a good thing. Always is. So we're just delighted, and what I'm doing on Saturday nights now is not taking for granted that they're listening. They all say that together. But last Saturday night I said, OK, this is the Saturday after Easter. How many of you were at church on Easter Sunday? And I was amazed that not every kid was there. That's when almost everybody goes to church. But some of them even missed at that time. But some of them are brand new believers. Some of them are not even believers yet. But they are hearing the gospel. And Richard, what a delight it is to cooperate together with you and to partner in youth evangelism with you and the whole Gibson County outreach and the schools that you bring them from. You bring them from Gibson Southern High School, from Owensville, from Fort Branson, sometimes even, I think, from Princeton. Yes, I brought some from there. And Homestot. When the other night said, where are you from, Owensville? Fort Branson said, no, Homestot, OK, great. So would you like to invite all the people that are listening to do what you're doing and just bring some kids on Saturday nights? Sure would. It's been good for our church. And it's given our kids an opportunity for fellowship, as well as to hear the gospel. And some of them are-- I've noticed some real changes in their lives where they're not only attending, but they're growing spiritually. I can see some changes in their lives. And I think one of the big influences has been being involved here at Triple T. Well, we thank the Lord for that. And we praise the Lord for you. And thank you so much for allowing us to chat together on this broadcast. Anything else you want to tell our listeners? I've really appreciated the ministry. I appreciate knowing you and your wife and your son daughter over the years. And it's going to be associated with and in fellowship with this ministry. Thank you, Richard. And Pastor Richard Comer, if you have some questions about church involvement and church connections, you can call any time and we'll connect you with him. Thank you for listening. Stay tuned, and war to come. [MUSIC PLAYING] Triple T. Christian Youth Ministries is inter-denominational. That means that we work with anybody from any local congregation that believes that the Bible is the Word of God, infallible, inspired, and totally true. Pastor Richard Comer, when he was here before, pastored a Nazarene church. The pastor that invited his daughter to bring Richard's daughter was pastor of an assembly of Godchurch. And so those two daughters, plus another of Richard's daughters, became traveling tigers. And from their county, Gibson County, Indiana, became another young man who was a traveling tiger, but he was a Baptist. And so we had Assembly of God, Nazarene, Baptist, and now Richard is pastoring a Wesleyan church. We've been privileged to share the gospel one-on-one with over 300 different local Bible-believing congregations across the tri-state. Almost every denomination you can think of. And because we've been able to do that, we've been able to invite people to come and bring their friends. Every Saturday night, wonderful things happen. I want you to please be praying for the strategy spaghetti supper to be at Triple T at 6.30 p.m. Tuesday, May 13. And plan to be with us if you possibly can. We'll give you an update on what God has been doing the first year of our 1,000 days of prayer and action. Begin on May 13, 2013, as to go God willing through February 6, 2016 to be Triple T's golden anniversary. And as we move Saturday by Saturday in between Saturdays, your counsel is needed. Plans are established by counsel, by wise counsel, wage war. That's Proverbs 2018, New King James Version. Meanwhile, tonight is grad night with free pizza and a special gift for each student who attends, who is graduating from high school or eighth grade this year. The theme, watch, stand fast in the faith. And next Saturday, May 10, is the next Tiger Team training. It's preparing for fair share and continuing the vision, every youth, before turning 20, to hear the gospel with an invitation to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. Was in a highway happenings, the Saturdays preceding Palm Sunday and Easter were very, very effective. The empty tomb replica with a cross on top will remain with the stone rolled away for the 40 days following Easter. We are thrilled about what God has done. Last Saturday, we emphasized the Great Commission, incorporating significant scriptures from Matthew 28, Mark 16, Acts 1. Tammy creatively wove the stories together, sharing irrefutable proof from God's word that Jesus did, in fact, rise from the dead, including the boldness of those who had been with Jesus to share their message, the message of the gospel of Christ. I presented the plan of salvation and the challenge that Jesus gave. The harvest truly is plentiful, but the labors are few. Therefore, pray the Lord of the harvest to send out labors into His harvest, the opportunity to pray for people who need the Lord, and to consider being involved with fair share as a traveling tiger was presented, whether they can come for one week, two weeks, three weeks, four weeks, or all five. Many responded, indicating that they are praying about being involved. Within 100 miles of triple T are 93 counties, and 57 of these counties are to have fairs during the five weeks between July 7 and August 9. 15 Missions International is sending 16 students, these are college students, from BMW, Bible Missionary Work Training Center, along with 12 or more 10 to 13 year olds from all over the United States and two adult couples. They're coming in several vehicles. The need is for people in the tri-state to serve the Lord as leaders, drivers, traveling tiger participants, to come alongside the Teen Missions Group. Everyday listeners to telling the truth radio are challenged to take God's ABCs one-on-one to people in their communities. Hundreds of ABCs have been sent to listeners. Another station was added just recently in Minnesota, and the broadcast can also be heard on 39 radio stations in nine states everyday as well as online via podcast and on Triple T's website. Billboard share the message, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ," and Triple T's mission and website are mission, telling the truth to teenagers. As God opens doors, the Triple T team will continue to take the gospel across the area. Please pray much about the need for counsel to know where to go when. Please invite pastors, youth leaders, and other interested adults to come to the strategy Spaghetti Supper Tuesday, May 13. Call us by next Saturday and let us know how we will be coming with you. It's a complimentary Spaghetti Supper, but we need your counsel, your input, your prayers, your support. If you can't possibly come, please share your ideas and suggestions to help make fair share 2014 the most effective ever. We want to thank you for your personal prayers for our family. God is blessing, good things are happening. We're going through some troubled waters right now, but God is great and gracious, and we are so delighted that He is doing what He is doing through people like you who are praying and supporting the ministry. We want to invite you to be a Chavelin Tiger supporter. That means you can be a Tiger teammate. How do you do this? First, you pray. Secondly, you share something that God has entrusted to you, time or talent or treasure. We have people that are so capable of doing things, and we've just witnessed today someone who cares, doing some plumbing repairs, and doing some electrical upgrades. And we're thrilled because of God sending people around, but you have talents and you have something you could do. And we invite you to be a part of Triple T. Christian Youth Ministries. If you've never been here, why don't you come tonight? It starts at 7.27, and again, it's free pizza tonight, and we'll be saluting the graduates from eighth grade and high school that are able to come. And we'll be talking about where we go from here. Our whole thrust and thrilling possibilities are taking a stand and really knowing that God wants each one of us to be involved, doing something for Him. I'm going to share again a scripture that I've already shared today, but listen to it again. This is Ephesians 6, 13. Therefore, take up the whole armor of God that you may be able to withstand in the evil day and having done all to stand. Our thrust tonight is again to stand. The Bible says, "Watch, stand fast in the faith. Be brave, be strong, let all that you do be done with love." Do you love God? Do you love other people? Are you willing to share your faith in Christ? If you don't know the Lord, this is what you need to do. Admit you're a sinner. All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Believe on the Lord Jesus. And then tell other people you believe. If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved with the heart when believed to righteousness, with the mouth confession is made to salvation. If you'll come to Triple T tonight, you will be given your very own New King James Bible with the Triple T cover on it. We want you to have yours. And you'll get to see the replica of the garden tomb with the stone rolled away and the cross up on the top. We're thrilled about what God has done that Easter is because Christ lives. And that's why we celebrated Palm Sunday in Easter. And now the 40 days following Easter, Jesus walk and talk on planet Earth. Seen by over 500 people at one time after the resurrection. And then He gave us what we call the Great Commission. Jesus said, "Go. Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature." That's what we're endeavoring to do. Problem we face today is that the laborers are few. Jesus said, "The harvest truly is plentiful." But the laborers are few. Therefore, pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest. That's what we're doing now. And we ask you, if you're a believer in Christ, to pray with us that many, many people will come into the picture. We have 32 coming up from Teen Missions International, God willing, but we'd like to triple that amount this summer so that we can go to so many more fairs and street festivals. They're all happening at the same time. The first three weeks, we're going to be going to as many as we can of the 40 counties that are having fairs at the same time. But we have to have more vehicles, we have to have more drivers, we have to have more people, and we need you to pray with us that this will happen. If you want to volunteer to be involved in all of this, boy, we'd like to have you. Next week is what we call tiger training. And we are training not only teenagers and preteens, but adults. So you can call and get information about it 812-867-2418 and ask for the packet. And we'll send it right to you. Know this, when you pray and when you give, when you go, Christ through you can change the world.
