I believe Larry had some personal stuff and he wasn't able to make it this hour. So I'm sitting in. We're looking at the S&P up 21.93 at 42.89. Let me just discuss a couple of things here. In the Chapman wave, what we like to look for is identify the lowest low bar. And from that moment on, you want to be counting each successively higher peak. And the objective is once you've got that low bar, every higher peak, it's called a floating letter until it makes a peak. As long as from the starting point, it doesn't take out that starting point. If it takes it out, you have to start all over again. You're done with any potential buy signal or buy mode. And what you want to look at is to see it go strongly to an A, then pull back, hold that low, and then start B. And B is where you might get an upgrade of a buy signal taking it to a buy mode. A buy mode would imply that in Chapman methodology, it should go to at least a D. And I use technical indicators for that. And they just sit there. I don't do anything with them. There's nothing to measure or anything. When they cross positive, they positive. When they go negative, they're negative. And as it stands right now, when you get to that fourth highest peak alphabetically A, then peak B, peaks have got nothing to do with A to B equals C to D. Absolutely nothing to do. It has nothing to do with the Elliott wave. I notate them with alphabetical, with the alphabos sequentially to G. A, B, C, D, E, F, G, each one's higher, uppercase on the way up, lowercase on the way down. Once you get to D, other things can happen. And that's exactly where we are right now. This is where you can get an instant restart, because within three bars, that's the rule, if there is a higher high above D, you can call it an E. But in your mind, you're thinking E maybe slash A, because this could be a brand new buy signal going to a buy mode that can take you to another four peaks high. There's never an H. G is the ultimate high letter. Then you have to look to see if there's a recount, if there's something you missed, whatever. All right. So within that context, where are we? We did this instant restart with this peak D still in a buy mode. In the S&P, see this candle, red candle in the daily chart right here. The middle is the weekly, right is the monthly. And right here, if I can just get this error, I want to see, can you? Yeah. I think you can see it quite clearly. Oh, that's not so. Okay. So there's your peak D, one bar, two bars. In two bars, it made a new recovery high. But the mag D is very strong. That's the mag D right there. The stochastic is over 80% is excellent. Over 90% is terrific. It's at 89.81 right now. So it's very strong. That's the reason why that red candle yesterday, to me, was not a really big negative. It was just saying, hey, it's a digestive phase after a spectacular run from the 4100 level to the 4300 level. So where we at right now, we're at 4289. Let's call it 4290. And it has to go to 4299.20. If it does it today, extends leg F. If it does it tomorrow, it starts a G. But we've got that instant restart, which says, hey, G stash C. And very often we see the G stash C go to that D. D is the target price always in the Chathamway methodology. So with that said, we're in E. In the weekly chart, we're only in C and the monthly, and that's still very bullish. The mag D hasn't crossed positive yet, but the 9 period has crossed over the 14. And that's already important. And the stochastic is lagging, but it's at 59% and running the on balance volume in both the weekly, well, the daily, weekly, and the monthly are becoming, it's becoming very overboard. I never talk about overboard oversold in any of the indicators except for the on balance volume. I might do it in my price movement, but not in any of the technical indicators. They just give you readings that you have to interpret in a way of either buy or sell. Now, the other thing is this. I wanted to do a couple of things here just because I know that Larry likes to look at the commodity. So we'll do that. But the QQQ had an instant restart. Is this a peak F or is it an F slash B? Look, the 9 is way over the 14. That's really positive. The mag D is starting to weaken, but it's still positive. The stochastic is weakening, but it's still at 86%. That's terrific. On balance volume, the blue line is pulled back. So this says we're probably getting kind of toppy in the QQQs. The way I'm looking at the market right now, because the Dow has just started about an hour ago, it went to a leg seat, went above 33,805. At the moment it went one penny above that high. It starts at leg C. Look, the 9 is over the 14. The mag D, this is the mag D, the green and red line there, very strong. The stochastics at 86% very strong. On balance volume is lagging a lot. And that just says to me, I think we do go to a D. It's probably going to be somewhere between, I don't know, we first have to make a peak C. If we go one penny above today's high tomorrow, it extends leg C. And as I'm looking at it, the upside is still intact. But look at the weekly chart. You see the green and red pink line? That's called the Chatham Wave inside track repellent zone. Once it goes above, it becomes a propellent zone, but it keeps getting repelled in that little area right there. So that says until the Dow can close on a weekly basis in the 34,300s, that's 500 points from here. That's a lot. This is still in an up, I call this a high level consolidation, making higher highs and so far higher lows, mostly higher lows and mostly higher highs. It hasn't made the D yet. And the monthly chart is bumping up against resistance you can see right there. Right. I wanted to get that out of the way. Now let me show you a couple of things. On the very short term, we had just absolutely a fabulous turnaround from the low at about 20 on the E-minus at 42, I think it was 42.62s. And across nine periods, the 10-minute chart crossed positive and we are still positive. And this went to peak A. And what I did the other day, I see it's about a week ago, I said, this is going to become really important. I use a long, narrow rectangle, the midpoint of that. Sometimes if it's long enough, I say, this is going to become a really important area up and down and up and down like a yo-yo. Well, that's 42.90. We went above it for a while the other day at peak F with the two doji candles. And we plummeted from the 43.05-ish area down to the 42.60s, then went sideways. And I typed in this because it came from, I wonder if I've still got it because it was a while back. Wow, is that the break already? Yep, that's the breakdown. It's up 149, it's a piece of 21. There it is. This is where I drew it from here. This is the whole area that was in this old age between a very narrow trading range at 9.20, around about on the 5th of June. And this was 42.

Let me just show you something here. I was a Basel Chapman sitting in Fulleripa's event on a one-minute e-mini chart up in 1975. So look how it's pulled back from this peak e-mini in the Chapman wave. You see the magnitude, the way it turned around, but look at this beautiful indicator right here. See that little blue line? It hit exactly to the minute. It made it a little high and then it comes all the way back down. And what I said just before I popped into the den a little while ago, I said, I'll be doing Larry's show hour at one o'clock, but I'm watching this and the one minute made a peak e in the one peak e and the ten minutes made it a peak d a b and it's still above the nine-period moving average. And then I said 42.90. You remember I just talked about this dash blue line that's just going to stay there for a while because we're going to go above and then we come back. It's going to be really like a fulcrum. It's going to be really important. Well, looking at the one-minute chart, look how it's walking the nine-period moving average. It's trying to make a cup formation to break above 42.94.75 to get to 42.90.95. There it is. So this is just about, it's within a fraction, a quarter of a point of starting a leg d. So that's the one thing. The other is this b in the, in the, I've been speaking about this for about six months now. Next week I hope to do quite a bit of work to be able to kind of to, to at least document, I'm not sure I'm able to put it on a computer, but I'll be writing down all the notes for myself and I'll be trying to implement it in some, I don't know if I can do it on a train station or on warden or something, just implementing some kind of a plan so that I can identify with the parameters, well, clearly articulated, where we get a two-click session. One of the, one of the ingredients that I spoke about this at about 42.70 this morning, I said, I think we've got a two-click set. I had actually done this, a two-click session, but I had to get out because of some other things that were going on with the program. I just, I needed to get out. So I got out, but I think this is a two-click session that somehow or other we should attempt to get to a leg C above the 42 in the 10-minute chart, 42.9850, 42.9875 starts leg C. It's taking too much time. I have a rule of 136 when you're consolidating. One, one bar rest is fantastic. Three bars is good or even on the way down, it's good. But when it gets to six bars, you almost have to restart the new buy signal. So here's the pattern that might even turn into that H, dreaded H pattern. I'm watching it closely. Here's your peak C1. I call this peak C1, C2. So if I was in, I'm not in anything right now here, I would have called, I would have said, hey, I'm getting this as a peak C2. I'm getting ready to maybe bail if certain parameters aren't hit. This is a new position, but if you're still long from the 72.74 area, 42.72, the day is still young. Anything can happen. But on a very short term basis, this one-minute chart says I couldn't even get to a D under the previous E. Not good. That means there's now weaknesses starting to prevail in the general, at least in this SMP. And the NQM23, this is the NASDAQ during contract, it made a peak E and there's a pattern that I call the dreaded H. Now what is the dreaded H? The dreaded H is, if I can just find this right here, dreaded H, find it. There it is, dreaded H. It means sometimes you can go straight up or straight down. That's one thing. You can make a cup formation or an arch formation. That's two and three. Or you can have a combination. In this case, it's red because if this H fails at a peak A or B and takes out that left side low, you've got to be real careful because you've got only two to three bars in which to close above that to save the day. Otherwise, it could go quite a lot deeper. So what we're looking at here is that there's this little H pattern, a little A right there. And now I can should wait for the 9 to cross negative. But here's your gray A because it wasn't a, there's no conformation of it. So it's an A minus because it failed. And now you can get almost a one to one to the downside. So that was a peak D. Now I never had a chance to draw my left side right side price time match or anything like that. And this went to peak A, peak B, C and D. So let me show you this yet again. There's another peak A, peak B. I'm just counting the highs from the low bar, C and there's your D down arrow. And what did we get? Now normally with a peak D and a down arrow in an arch formation, it doesn't go that much below. Unlike just an A or a B that fails, it sort of stores a little bit under it. This has gone a little bit more than a little bit under it. It's gone for 40,000, say 466 area down to the 450s. So now it's almost, now you have to look at the 10 minute chance of, hey, this is going to be, and this goes to the Tiger Financial News Network, almost all the hosts talk about A to B equals C to D. I talk about it in a different way. I talk about it in a traveling methodology. I developed a long time ago where I go, let me just expand that weight, make it nice and thick. And now we'll go to the downside where it has to do a one-to-one extension in the same angle, the same number of bars. Well, let's see what happens here. Is it starting to find some support? It hasn't gone one-to-one to the downside. The MACDs week, stochastics week, on balance for arms, quite good. But the nine period has not closed under the 14. That says there's still internal strength. So if I was saying, if I think someone said they're getting short, I'd just be watching this closely because the next move under 14,450 would be very negative. Now using the same technique, remember I can take a blank chart. I don't need all these techniques in case if I'm just counting the peaks and troughs. Look, he has gold. So gold earlier on, made a low right here in the temperature. This is the continuous contract. Made a low back at seven. That was five o'clock on the seventh. That was five o'clock, seven. That's last night in the Eastern time. Then it went to peak A, peak B, peak C, peak D. Pools back has this alternate count goes E slash A, F slash B, G slash C, and then it pulls back. Then it goes A, B, C. He has your 200-period moving averages. Now he never uses moving averages, so this is something completely different. But look what happened. It sliced right through what is normally resistance or support and went to a peak D, E, F. I haven't put that in because I haven't updated it. There's your F. And then it turns down and still hasn't technically given a down arrow, but it's a down arrow based on time rather than price. And so gold at 20.9 now has to be 1975 is the next support level and 1983 is your resistance. I'll be back in a moment, Baselchamp, and sitting for the one and only Larry Presaventa.

FCX is Freeport McMorrin. This is copper and gold, actually copper and other metals, but basically it's a copper company. Made it a leg C, right at the 200 period expansion, moving average in the deadliest trading. FCX is trading at 37.73 up 16 cents. You can see how important this 200 period moving average has been support, then it's been resistance, then it's been support, then resistance. So right now it's resistance again. So if you are not in it, I'd be a little hesitant. If you look at copper itself, let me get there for one second. I heard the bell, copper is HG. There we go, copper itself. Yeah, very nice move, but look at peak A and the peak B and the peak C or leg C. In such a small move to the upside, I think it's doing quite nicely, but not good enough. So I'm just going to say that FCX on a trading basis, and I'll be going to that corner moment, needs at 37.73. I think it's going to come back to this 200 period moving average. I think the 37.30 is going to kind of be a mid range for the next couple of days, but I also see there's a much better chance that it's going to retest the 36.30 area, and that's going to be key. If we can hold that, and it's at a leg C, it could quickly just pop to a leg D, and that would make the 38.90s, 38.30 to 38.90 will be the actually even just one penny above that starts. Yeah, 38.31, 38.32 starts a leg D if it happens the next couple of days, and I suspect that that's going to be a resistance. So I'd be hesitant here. If you've done your homework and you really think that this is looking good, and I think that it's improving, but the mag D in the weekly chart and the stochastic is still flat, it needs a lot of work. But if you want to start your position now, I'd have a one and a quarter point stop, and if it goes to the 38.40s, I would just raise the stop. In fact, I'd try to keep the stop, I'd tighten it up, but I'd keep it there before I added any position. I need to see four sessions more to see if it's going to hold support. That's the most important thing. It is trying to move up. It's got a nice cup formation, most importantly, and the gap and it's not full the gap much. So this is good action. I'm just going to get the weekly suggested needs a lot more work. That's all. Next question is, let me just see if you don't mind. I'm going to go to right here to see what the bell was. We have Brent in Martinez. Brent, how are you? I'm doing great, Basil. How are you? I'm very well. Thank you. So you came just in time for the commodity section of this particular hour, and you would like to look at. We have talked about this previously. It's going back probably, literally, I mean, maybe a month ago, we were looking at this on a little longer-term chart. Seeing that there could be potential for a bottom in the future, and that happened not too long ago, a few days ago. With a dodging candle on the 1st of June, we're looking at Intrepid Partash IPI, 22.29 right now, up 8 cents, and that dodging candle came after the peak APB failure with the dreaded H pattern, and it didn't go down quite a bit. And now what it's done is it closed. This is the third session above the arch high of the 22nd of May of 20.48. So this, I was looking at FCX. This is a takeoff level on a daily basis is a lot nicer looking than the FCX. The monthly chart needs a lot of work. And I'm going to ask you what you're doing, but I first want to show this. We had discussed this. This is just a beautiful pyramid shape. The low that was made back in, I didn't use, yes I did. Going to, this is a weekly chart, going back to January of 2021, at 21.92, there was a low on in May, it made a little arch formation. And then in May, the week of the 14th of May of 2021, it went to 22.82. And then it screamed to the upside. It went to 1.21.72. I would say 100 points upside is excellent. April of 2022, about, what is that, one year later, weekly chart. But then one year later, what does it do? It tests on May, the week of the May, the 12th, it goes to a low of 18.26. And then it makes the low that we're looking at right now, 17.23. That's what I call bar symmetry, just perfect bar symmetry. There's the inside wedge target support line. Okay, now I'm going to ask you, what are you doing? What have you done? I'm just doing this with the auction battle. I have, there are the $20 calls to go out to, I have the Julys. So you have July, okay. So this is going to be very interesting because I think IPI, if you're looking at a monthly chart, it's about six weeks you've got to go, maybe even more July. Oh my, it's about seven weeks actually. So if you're looking at that length of time, I would, knowing you, you're probably going to be out of it a lot sooner. But if you gain, if you want to hold it because the weekly chart, which made it, it's a potential this week, a trough G. If you, if you're going to hold it, the resistance at 2373, which is the weekly 40 period exponential moving average, which it's hit many times. But the last time it actually closed above it and only did that once was in the week of August the 26, 2022. And before that was the week of the high of April of 2022 at 121.72. Since then, if you just use this one indicator, the 14 period exponential moving average, only one week did it close above that. Otherwise every single week, even if it went above, oh no, it did it for a fraction of the week of the 21st of October, just momentarily. And look at this, every single, that'll be the first time if it can close above 2372, let's call it 2380. If it can close above 2380, that'll be the first time in a long, long time. So that's the, that is the resistance that we're looking at. So on a short-term basis, the last time it gap down was on the 4th of May, 24.30 was the high. So 24.30 is above the 23, 24.30 is above the 2372, 14 period exponential moving average. So now you have a lot of configurations. So I'm going to do this, if you, if you've got a moment, I'll just do this here, going to that high. If I was to do a left side, right side price time match, I can't do it to the low. Wow, good. But it takes it out too far. That to me would be too fast. And now I have to use a particular candle. And I'm just going to try to see if I can do it here. Yeah, it's too soon. Yeah, that takes you right to where we are. So I, if using this candle right here, the candle of the 26th of May. Yeah, there we are. So I'm going to use that. I'm just going to click on the right side to give you what I'm looking at. Yes, this says by the week. Oh, that's not two weeks time. By the 20th of June, the gap high of the fourth, that's a 24.30. That would be a target. And let me just do this crossways right here. There it is. Oh, and it's right. Okay. Can you hold on a minute? I've got a couple of things I want you to show you. Yeah, no problem, Delta. Okay, folks, we've got Brent in Martinez, California. We're looking at IPI interpret potash in the potash area.

Distributor, Four Side Fund Services, LLC. that IPI holding even now as the market started to pull back from the highs is now only up 129 was up quite a bit more and there's to be only up 14 was up quite a bit more earlier on. So this is not giving back much at all. So it's saying it's almost independent of the market right now. So I like the action. I think your fabulous entry point and especially if you're doing it in options. So this is what I'm looking at. It's at resistance. It's hit it twice now. This is the inside wedge target resistance line because it's green going up. So that just says it might take a little bit. You've got 50 period expansion moving average resistance at 22.70. So far this is very good action but it's only leg A and there's a chance that today the high of yesterday was 22.42. Today is 22.41. If it doesn't go to 42 but stays here that's going to be a peak A but if it hits the same level as yesterday that continues the floating net A and that's very good for an A to take off like this with this is almost a Chapman wave squash pattern with the MACD and the stochastic. I don't want to get too carried away but the speed with it's gone from negative in the stochastic to really positive at 90 percent and the 9 over the 14 and the MACD this is just says it's got fabulous support in the 2130 to 20.40 area. I like it. I think it's really nice but I don't think it's this is the big move to the upside. I think it's trying to establish some kind of base. It looks very much like the Eiffel Tower in the monthly chart straight up to the 121 area and then straight down again. So I think this is really important work to try to form a base. You've still got that gap down that candle that we were looking at from the 4th of May. So I like what I'm seeing. I would love to see what it's doing maybe Tuesday of next week as it as a full the gap has it gone below 21.25 or is it actually struggling to to hold that green line as a magnet to keep moving high so far. It's so good. So the way I'm looking at it you've got about another week and a half or so maybe even two weeks try to get to 24. What did I say was 24.35 20 24 30 24 30.  It does of course battle as always. It's a big help and I just yeah I've got this one. I've got some others on my list that I I'm starting to dip my toe and I have been in the steel area and just see some other spots that I have my eye on and did do one of the you know the kind of quick trade this morning on the spy again and already out of that one but to see all in all it's been good. All right. Congratulations. That's always nice. Yeah. So thank you so much for calling in good luck with this one. All right. Thank you so much. We'll have a great day. You take care. Thank you very much. So folks just to get back to this. I'm going to go to natural gas. I was asked about that. So look. Yes you and you remember we made that peak E and I said this is the dreaded H pattern peak A minus because it took out the little left side low. And now you can see the one set nine per moving average cost negative at 120 this one at 118 this afternoon. Eastern time it's still pink. And that just tells you this is very weak right now and that 200 per moving average of 14409 in 10 minute chart. That's going to be key support. I'm seeing signs right here that it's attempting to try to find some support but it hasn't yet. All right. Now a question came in about natural gas. So natural gas. Let me just go here for a moment. This is the continuous contract. I'm sorry. I'd like to go to the continuous contract. I know most people would never trade from a continuous contract because you want your actual contract that you have. Not only that prices will be different at different times of the month. So that's made that dreaded H pattern right there. All right. Now I want to go to keep this on here ESM to three just keep it there. Oh look at that. I drawn this in as a left side right side potential price time match earlier on using a particular candle as the midpoint the fulcrum for the left side right side mirror image. And here we are. This is the low that was made at 12.03 this afternoon in the E-mini at forty two eighty three fifty. We're trading at eighty we've just hit eighty two eighty three fifty. Done it exactly right there. And here's your tab web inside wedge target support line. Usually I'll make it red and have time to do that. So I'll make it pink right now dashed right there. Okay. See I a little bit on bounce bombs trying to turn around stochastic. This is where the most important this is where it should rally if it's going to rally forty two ninety two has to be reached. I would say within the next 10 or 15 minutes rather than forty two eighty two. All right. Here we go again. Okay. Finally I'm getting to my natural gas. There we go. Natural gas is in G. This is the continuous contract. There we go. So this candle that we're looking at right now it's up point 005 at two point three three four. See this this doji candle. See the nine period moving average in the daily chart still very weak. The black that's the black moving average right there the 14 period moving averages. The pink turns to pink when it crosses negative it's green when it's positive the Magdy histogram is improving but it still isn't even close to turning up and the stochastic at nineteen percent is under twenty. It just says it's still in the weak category but it is rallying on balance volume is being very good. But the weekly charge you see when the Magdy moves like this and the price doesn't conform doesn't rally with it means next time there's weakness in the Magdy it can drag the price lower. And I'm always nervous. Look at the stochastic rated beautifully from the single digits to almost twenty percent in the weekly chart nineteen point eighty one. And yet the price is making lower lows. I'm something is wrong with natural gas and I just say for the people who are trading it I know some of you have had short term trades that's fantastic. Just be really careful. There's just something is going on that is either there's a glut there's something going on. And all I can say is you and G. which is the United States natural gas fund doesn't show. It doesn't show up all these different things as clearly as the others. So this is a G. and I can't go to G. C. because I went made a low low. This is actually G. C. B. look at that monthly chart. Look at the weekly chart. You know you could you could trade this on. There's going to be a point when it made this inverted V shape can this Eiffel Tower right here in the daily chart getting from 6 10. I don't know if it's still 6 10 as a continuous contract. Yeah. 6 10 to that peak C failure on the 19th of May to 7 72 and then caps down and couldn't even have a little dreaded H pattern right then failed. This is just not good. So this is the right side that now has to the only way that I would feel very comfortable about say buying the U. N. G. is if the price of natural gas I'm going back to the core which is the root of the this is the continuous contract trading at 2.336 right now actually starts to trade in the two fifties and it can hold that for a whole week. That'll be that'll be the best thing that I could see. Then I'll say you know what I think you've you've raised the base of support. At this point it's still at the stage where anything can happen. So about anything can happen. I'll be right back. Got a couple of questions that came in that I'll be looking at as soon as I return. Very good.

Hello and welcome to the session. In this session we discuss the following question which says, if 2 to the power 3x minus 1 plus 10 divided by 7 is equal to 6 then find x. Let's move on to the solution. We are given that 2 to the power 3x minus 1 plus 10 when divided by 7 gives us 6 and we need to find the value for x. Consider 2 to the power 3x minus 1 plus 10 upon 7 is equal to 6. This gives us 2 to the power 3x minus 1 plus 10 is equal to 7 into 6. That is we get 2 to the power 3x minus 1 plus 10 is equal to 42. This further implies 2 to the power 3x minus 1 is equal to 42 minus 10. This further implies 2 to the power 3x minus 1 is equal to 32. Now let's factorize 32. 2 16 times is 32. 2 8 times is 16. 2 4 times is 8. 2 2 times is 4. 2 1 times is 2. So we say that 32 is equal to 2 multiplied to itself 5 times that is 32 is equal to 2 to the power 5. That is we get 2 to the power 3x minus 1 is equal to 2 to the power 5. As you can see the base is the same for the right side and the left side that is the base is 2. Now we compare these exponents we get 3x minus 1 is equal to 5. This means that 3x is equal to 5 plus 1 that is 3x is equal to 6. Now dividing both sides by 3 we get x is equal to 2. So our final answer is x equal to 2. So this completes the session. Hope you have understood the solution for this question.


Welcome back after the break. We'll continue. So, before we went for our break, we were looking at, you know, thinking for the king's sake, okay? As an aspect of kingdom thinking is that we think for the king's sake, and I gave you an example, okay? So, when we, kingdom thinking, you know, does not perceive loss as too much for the king's sake, you know? But for the world, our decision can seem foolish, it can seem unreasonable, it can seem unnecessary. But inside us, you know, we look at it from a totally different perspective. I'll just give you another example. You know, for example, God moves you to give, you know, all your savings, the money that you have saved to buy an apartment or to build a house. You give it away for, to build an orphanage so that, you know, children's home, so that the children, often children can have a home to live in, you know, and, you know, they can be safe. So, when you say tell us to the world or to your family or to people who are of the world, then they will think that it's foolishness, it's, you know, it's unnecessary, unwanted. But, you know, you are thinking from a totally different perspective, you know, they say, you could have saved this money, you can build your own house, buy your own apartment, your own flat. It's such a waste of money. I think you're being foolish. But, you know, we know that it's God's leading, God is asking us to do. And we don't see this, and we don't perceive this loss as too much for the king's sake. So, there are times when we have to give up things and we give up our time, entertainment, even when we're in the ministry, sometimes, you know, we don't have time for entertainment, don't have, you know, the pleasures that we can, you know, go sightseeing or go to different countries for a holiday. But we give that all up for the king's sake. Okay, so that is another aspect of kingdom thinking. We look at another aspect of kingdom thinking with Jesus' challenges is to be like children, childlikeness. Okay, we see this in Matthew chapter 8 verses 1 to 4. The disciples, you know, came to Jesus and they wanted to know who would be great in the kingdom of heaven. And we know what Jesus did. He called a little child, he had them stand in the midst of them. And he said, unless you become like little children, by no means you can enter the kingdom of heaven. And Jesus goes on to say, therefore, whoever humbles himself as this little child will be the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. So what does this teach us about kingdom thinking that we need to become like little children to enter the kingdom of heaven? So if you want to be great in the kingdom of God, you know, you need to humble yourself as a little child. So if you want to enter the kingdom of God, if you want to experience the kingdom of God, or if you want to be great in the kingdom of God, then you have to be childlike. So we don't confuse childlike to being childish. Okay, these are two different things. Childlike and childish are two different things. Childish is all about me.  So thinking all about yourself, how to make more money, how to live a more, you know, happy life. But that is being childish. Childlike is being humble. So what is it to be childlike?  Okay, so when a child, the parent is eating, feeding the child, the child doesn't say, Mom, I don't think, you know, this is the food for you need to give me when I'm five, five months old or nine months old, I think you need to give me meat or chicken or fish. I mean, the child does not say that whatever the parent feeds the child, the child just eats. So the child is totally and utterly dependent on their parent, whatever the parent dresses, you know, buys for them, feeds them.  So we need to come to a place where we are totally dependent on God. You know, in anything and everything that we do, we totally depend, dependent on God.  And without you, I can do nothing. Okay, that is being childlike and being childlike is of great value in God's kingdom. Jesus said in Matthew chapter 19 verse 14, let the little children come to me and do not forbid them for of such is the kingdom of heaven. So Jesus is saying that these are the kind of people that I want in my kingdom. Who are the kind of people that I want in my kingdom? People who are childlike, people who are, you know, just totally trust and depend on me. In Mark chapter 10 verse 15, Jesus says, Surely I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it. So if you want to enter, experience the kingdom of God, you need to receive it as a child. You need to be totally dependent, abandon yourself to God, totally submit surrender to God, which means there will be a lot of things God says, you know, and asks us to do, which we cannot figure out, you know, we just receive it as a child and we just step out and do that. Okay, so being childlike is what qualifies us to enter and experience and to be great in the kingdom of God. Okay, so kingdom thinking is childlike thinking, no reservations in just leaning on the father. Okay, another aspect of kingdom thinking is when Jesus said, in order to be great, we need to be like a servant. Okay, if you want to be great in God's kingdom, you need to be a servant.  And so she, you know, wants them to be in high places, high position. So she tells Jesus, you know, grant that these two sons of mine, once it on your right hand, once it on your left hand in your kingdom. And so Jesus answered and says, you know, are you able to drink the cup that I will drink from? And both the men said, yes, we can drink from that cup. And Jesus says, you know, yes, you can drink the cup of suffering that I am going to partake in. Of course, you are also going to, you know, face persecution. You are also going to go through suffering. So you will drink the cup of suffering. But Jesus says to sit on my right and my left is not for me to decide. But it's my father who decides that. Okay. So Jesus says it's not I who decides it, but it's my father. You know, it's been prepared by my father. It's my father who decides it. But you know, Jesus goes on to deal with the root of the matter. He's saying what you are asking is for greatness in the kingdom. And he says, you think that sitting on the right hand on the left hand is when you will have greatness in my kingdom. And that's not so. He says, you know, the people of this world who want to be great, they exert their authority or they exercise their authority, their Lordship over others. But he says, in my kingdom, if you want to be great, then you have to be the least.  So this is something again, very radical that Jesus is bringing about kingdom thought, kingdom thinking. Because if you want to be great in my kingdom, you have to be least.  So, you know, this is the culture you and I belong to in the kingdom of God, you know, when we serve people is actually when we are leading them.  They care for us, but it's totally opposite in the kingdom of God. You know, when you are a leader, when you are leading people, you are actually someone who has to serve them. Okay, so when you become least in the kingdom of God, that's when you become great. That's when you become great. That is kingdom thinking. You know, how wonderful it will be in our families, in our churches, if all of us did this, if you're willing to just serve each other, if you're willing to just get down and be humble enough, you know, to wait on people to serve them, to care for them and to love them. And if you, you know, have this heart of a servant, that's when you are truly a leader in the kingdom of God. If you do it with a heart that thinks, you know, I'm not great, I'm insignificant, but the God I serve is great.  It's not about me. It's not about who I am. It's not my talents.  I want to be a true representative of who he is. I want to represent him for who he is and in his fullness. That is when, you know, each one of us are preparing ourselves for the greatness in the kingdom of God. But if you say, you know, I want to be recognized. I want to be great. I want everyone to know me. Then we are disqualified for greatness in the kingdom of God. And so we see that it's totally different from the way the world thinks and the way, you know, we as people or kingdom citizens think. Okay, now let's look at the parable to understand what else Jesus taught us about kingdom thinking and other perspective of the kingdom thinking. There are many parables that Jesus gave us, but here is a parable that Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 20 verses one to 16.  Okay, so whenever he introduces anything that he's teaching about the kingdom of God, he always says a kingdom of God is like this. The kingdom of God is like this. Okay, so the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went very early in the morning just say he went out at nine o'clock to look for laborers in the vineyard. He found few of them. He asked them. He said he would pay them or dinadas for working the whole day. They agreed. He took them to his vineyard and they started their work at nine o'clock. Then he goes out again at eleven o'clock and he finds, you know, the marketplace he goes. He looks for more laborers. He finds more laborers. He tells them he'll pay them and dinadas for paying for working for the rest of the day. They agree. They come. Then he goes out again at one o'clock and then he looks for more laborers and he tells them the same thing. He'll pay them one dinadas for working for the rest of the day and they are willing. They come and they begin to work and join the others who join at nine and eleven. So we have nine. People join at nine. People join at eleven. People join at one. Then he goes out again at, say, four o'clock and he looks for more laborers and he brings in the laborers and he says he'll pay them a dinadas for working for, you know, the rest of the few hours that is left the day. At six o'clock, you know, everybody is done with their work. They're standing in the queue. And the one that, you know, the people who started working at nine o'clock, they get one dinadas. People who work at eleven, they get the same thing. The people who work at coming at one o'clock begin working at one o'clock. People who work at four o'clock, they also get the same thing. The people who started working at nine and eleven, they get very upset, you know, because how can you pay, you know, all those who came. At one o'clock and four o'clock, how can you pay them the same as you paid us? That's unfair. And what does the owner of the vineyard say? You know, he says, friend, am I doing you wrong? Did you not agree with me for a dinadas? And then he says, take what is yours and go your way because I wish, I wish to give this last man the same as you. And he says, is it not lawful for me to do what I wish with my own thing? Okay. Now, this is a parable like Jesus, you know, shared with them. And, you know, we don't see this pattern happening in our world.  If you work for a few hours, you get the wages that you work for the number of hours that you have put in. Okay. But Jesus said, this is how it is in the kingdom of heaven. And he points, the point is that God has the right in this parable what Jesus is trying to bring out. The point is that God has the right to do as he pleases. Okay. And you and I must celebrate what he does. For example, you know, you're praying for something.  You've been praying for something. Okay.  But the same prayer, you know, someday just pray for one day or pray for one week or pray even for one month or one hour and God answered them. And you're saying, this is not fair. God, you know, you made me wait for 25 years or 10 years or 15 years. And you answered me after so many years. And this person, they just prayed hardly one hour or, you know, just one day or one week or one month. And you answered them. And that's not fair God, you know, or, you know, for example, you've been a pastor for many years. And, you know, you've planted a church and the church has very few members to say around 100 or maybe 150 members after say about five or eight years. And then there's comes this young man, you know, Johnny and, you know, Johnny just started his ministry. And in a just in a year's time, you know, Johnny's church has grown to a membership of 500 members and you're saying God, this is not fair.  This is not what you what you have done is not right. How can you be partial?  Don't I have the right to do as I wish just like this owner of the vineyard says. But there's no don't I have the right to do what I wish so we can't we cannot evaluate what God is doing from our perspective from our thinking. But we must celebrate what God is doing in his kingdom. So if Johnny's church has grown to 500 in your same locality in the same in the same city, then you just celebrate what God is doing in Johnny's life.  You don't be jealous of him. You don't say, hey, he's doing some manipulative work to get people into his son. I must find out what wrong he's doing. No, we don't do that.  Because in God's kingdom, he chooses who he wants to bless. So God chooses to bless who he chooses to bless. You know, in God's kingdom, he chooses to have mercy on who he chooses to have mercy. He extends grace to whom he chooses to extend grace. What you and I need to do as part of that kingdom is to celebrate what God is doing because we are not. If you don't celebrate, which it means that you are not building God's kingdom. You're building your kingdom. You're knocking them. You're looking for your progress. You're, you know, your kingdom to be great, but we are building God's kingdom. So if Johnny is progress and 500 members are coming, say, hey, that's good. That's great because God's kingdom is being established. God's kingdom is being extended. Many people are accepting the Lord. It's good that God's kingdom is growing. So we need to celebrate what God does. If you see another brother or sister blessed, see what God, you know, celebrate what God is doing in their life. And it's a privilege and an honor for us to celebrate what God is doing. Remember, we learned that God is looking at the heart attitudes, not at the externals. In Romans chapter 14, verse four, you know, this is slightly different context, but just wanted to mention that Apostle Paul wrote, Now, who are you to judge another's servant? It's to his own master, he stands or falls. Indeed, he will be made to stand for God is able to make him stand.   But the king is doing what he pleases. He knows who he wants to bless. He knows when to bless and he knows when to come through. So there will be a time when he will come through to you. You know, he will also bless you, but it's important that you hold the right kingdom heart attitude. You hold the right kingdom thought process. You think the kingdom way. Okay, so that is about, you know, how we need to think in celebrating the king's perspective. The next one is, you know, thinking the kingdom resolve in Luke chapter nine, versus 57 to 62. So can somebody read that with me please. Luke chapter nine 57 to 62. Luke chapter nine versus 57 to 62. What happened as they journeyed on the road that someone said to him, Lord, I will follow you wherever you go. And Jesus said to him, foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the son of man has nowhere to lay his head. Then he said to another, follow me. But he said, Lord, let me first go and bury my father. Jesus said to him, let the dead bury their own dead, but you go and preach the kingdom of God. And another also said, Lord, I will follow you, but let me first go and bid them farewell who are at my house. But Jesus said to him, no one having put his hand to the plow and looking back is fit for the kingdom of God. Thank you. So here we see, you know, what Jesus is saying here may sound harsh, but it's not really harsh in the sense. You know, Jesus is saying, if you want to follow the King, then this is what he expects of you.  You're calling your ministry, your placement in the ministry or for God must supersede all earthly affections, earthly obligations. That means if going home to do a funeral will keep you from pursuing the kingdom of God in your life, then you need to let go of the funeral and pursue the kingdom.  Okay. And what Jesus is saying is, you know, keep working in the kingdom, you know, without going home. This is not to say that, you know, Jesus is saying we need to neglect responsibilities towards our family. No, he's not saying that. But what he's saying that, you know, he's teaching us priorities, teaching us the right perspective to think and what to do when we face these challenges or these situations. Elsewhere in scripture, we see that, you know, in 1 Timothy chapter five verse eight, we see that Paul is writing to Timothy says, you know, we need to take care, we're required to take care of our own families. And yet, you know, Jesus is saying that, you know, we also need to maintain our focus and we need to maintain our resolve to serve the King and follow him wherever he leads us. We shouldn't get entangled with the things of this world where we're not able to follow him like Paul's writing to Timothy in 2 Timothy chapter two verse four. He says, you know, a soldier is always, you know, focused on pleasing his commanding officer. Okay, whatever his commanding officer says, he's focused on pleasing and doing what his commanding officer says, which means that, you know, soldier even leaves his family behind his children.  Just to pursue this whole thing of, you know, running the race and winning a prize in the, in the competition. So he says, you know, also we need to be focused on, you know, thinking and making our commitment to the King and, you know, focused on pursuing what God has called us in his kingdom. Thinking includes a level of resolve and commitment to the King and a cause for his kingdom, which should not be hindered by any earthly responsibilities and affections. Okay, so for example, you know, many of them, you know, who want to step into full time ministry, they find it a challenge because the parents look up to them.  They think, no, there's no possibility for them to pay their debt or who will look after the family, who will care for the family.   You know, so you leave, you know, you're willing to give up your affections, willing to give up whatever it is, just to pursue God's call for your life. You know, just as a member, we were doing orientation for the first years and, you know, we were teaching, we were just sharing with them about a few God's general men and women of God who God called to, you know, for a mighty revival to bring about a mighty revival and extend God's kingdom. And one of them was William Raham and, you know, God worked mightily through him, through mighty signs and miracles and wonders.  And, you know, he just preached in the beginning of his ministry, he started preaching, he preached in a church, he was very fearful, he didn't want to go and preach but somehow he landed up there, he preached and, you know, people just repented and gave their hearts to God. And after that, all the other churches around him, you know, they, and places around him, they heard about the mighty revival that happened when he preached and they all signed him up and he was booked for the entire year. So when he went back to tell his family, his mother-in-law said, no, you know, you can't do this, this is crazy, this is madness, don't get into all of these things, you know, especially the Pentecostal movement in those days, you know, people didn't have a very scared of the Pentecostal movements, says, don't have anything to do with it if you want to have your, you know, live with your wife and your children. So he gave it up, he cancelled all of those things but he said that was the worst decision he made in his life and, you know, he lost his wife and children because of a flood that had affected the place that they were saying. He said if he had just moved out of that place, you know, they would have been saved, he wouldn't have lost his wife and his children. So sometimes we can, you know, listen to family responsibilities and just give up. So there's another lady, a great woman of God called Maria Woodworth.  So she decided to marry a missionary so that she can pursue God's call in her life. But she fell in love with a soldier, got married to a soldier, ended up with six children and, you know, got caught up in household chores and, you know, taking care of her husband and the six children that she could not pursue God's call. And then at one point in her life, she lost all five children and that's when she cried out to God, she kept reading the scriptures, wanting to know why and then she realized it's better for her to pursue God's call for her life. And of course that marriage didn't work, it ended up in a big tragedy, you know. So it's important for us, you know, to pursue what God has for us, you know, and to give up all earthly affections. Not at the extent of, you know, neglecting our responsibility towards family, God wants us to fulfill that, but we need to also, you know, resolve in our commitment to the King and for the cause of his kingdom, which should not be hindered by earthly responsibility and affections. Okay. Another kingdom thinking that Jesus thought was how to handle rejection. Okay, Luke chapter 10 verse 11. Can somebody read that please? Luke chapter 10 verse 11. Luke chapter 10 verse 11. The very dust of your city which clings to us, we wipe off against you. Nevertheless, know this that the kingdom of God has come near you. Thank you. So as representatives of the kingdom, we must understand that, you know, we will not receive a red carpet, a welcome, a great fun fair, a pomp and show, welcome when we go to preach the gospel. People will accept us, people accept our gospel, people will also reject us, people will reject our message that we bring, but that must in no way, you know, decrease our commitment to the truth. To the kingdom or the king or sharing or preaching his gospel and about his kingdom to every people.  And we know it's not because there's something wrong with the message that we are preaching or the king or the kingdom that we represent, but it's simply that, you know, that people's minds have been darkened.    Their love and joy living in darkness. So we don't, you know, we don't get upset about that. It's their choice. It's their will. So in the kingdom thinking, you know, we need to know that we will face rejection. And it is to know that you have been brought to the kingdom of God of people who have already been rejected.  They will also reject you, but that should not stop us from advancing God's kingdom preaching his kingdom. We need to move ahead and preach and teach the kingdom of God. Okay, we'll just look at two more, you know, teachings about the kingdom thinking and then we'll move on to the next chapter. Okay, so the next one is the eye of a needle. Here Jesus is talking about the rich people. And, you know, he says that it's easier for a camel to go to the eye of a needle than for a rich man to be, to enter the kingdom of God. And, and when people heard this, they were greatly astonished. And they asked who then can be saved. And Jesus looks at them and said, you know, with man, this is impossible. But with God, all things are possible. So we see that in this passage, you know, from 17 to 31, the Lord Jesus challenges are thinking about money, riches, and wealth. When he states that those who trust in riches will find it very hard to experience or to enter the kingdom of God. Okay, so the love of money, the love for riches and wealth can keep people from experiencing the kingdom of God and will keep them out of the kingdom of God. And yet, Jesus also assures us that with God, all things are possible, which implies that God can see to it that there will be those who are rich in this world. And yet they have the necessary grace not to allow their wealth, their riches, you know, from keeping them from experiencing the kingdom of God or loving God more than their wealth of riches, and then from entering the kingdom of God. So kingdom thinking is thinking where, you know, one loves the king and his kingdom more than wealth, riches, money, prosperity, fame, wealth. Okay, but they look at all of this, they look at positions, they look at authority, they look at wealth, riches, money as tools, which God has given them to honor the king, to serve the king and to build his kingdom and extend his kingdom. That means to just give in to the work of the kingdom. And, you know, they will never be allowed for wealth or riches or fame or position to be a hindrance from them experiencing the kingdom of God and entering the kingdom of God. Okay, the last one teaching about kingdom thinking is in Matthew chapter 5 verse 20. So can somebody read that please? Matthew chapter 5 verse 20. Matthew chapter 5 verse 20, for I say to you that under your righteousness exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. Thank you. So here the Lord Jesus was very strong in addressing the hypocrisy of the Pharisees. He said that by the hypocrisy of these scribes and Pharisees, they were actually being a hindrance from others entering the kingdom of heaven. Okay, and by their rules and laws and legalism, their judgments, putting down people, they were being a hindrance from people to enter the kingdom of God. So he rebuked them sternly and said that even sinners like tax collectors and harlots would enter the kingdom of God, a kingdom of heaven, even ahead of them. So the problem with the Pharisees was, you know, they told people to do, follow the law, keep the law, practice it in a very strict way, but they themselves failed to keep the law. They themselves failed to practice the law and whatever they did, they did to just to be seen before men as somebody who keepers of the law, good people to be praised by men. And hence Jesus is challenging their lifestyle. Okay, and Jesus is also challenging us to have a lifestyle that exceeds that of the scribes and Pharisees where they're not just doing living kingdom culture, behaving like kingdom citizens, or having a kingdom lifestyle just in front of people on Sunday in church or when we meet a fellow believer or when we go for a prayer meeting. But it is something that we live even in secret, even in our closed doors, behind closed doors, you know, we're living kingdom lives, kingdom lifestyles, kingdom thinking, having kingdom mindset, even when nobody is watching us. So kingdom thinking understands that it's not just enough to have the right knowledge, the right teaching and even the right intentions, but they must be translated into action. Okay, just like I said, you know, when we belong to a specific culture, we behave the way that culture requires us to. We think in the way the culture requires us to, and we act in the way the culture teaches us all the way the culture requires us. So we must live by what we know and what we teach. So we just don't preach and teach, but we also live by the kingdom culture. We also think the kingdom culture and have a kingdom perspective and mindset in everything that we do. Okay, so that is chapter 4 where we looked at various teachings about the kingdom of God, the kingdom of heaven, which Jesus taught for us to have the right kind of thinking or thinking according to kingdom, culture, kingdom, mindset. Any questions? Are you all with me? Yes, no? Yes, ma'am. Only one yes, I heard. Okay. Yes, Ma'am. Okay, thank you. Okay. If there are no questions. Okay, can we move on to chapter 5? Okay, Kingdom Living. We will move on to chapter 5. In John chapter 18 was 36. Jesus said, my kingdom is not of this world. So when he said this, he was making a very important statement. So, you know, even as we are living in this world, we need to know that we are in the world, but we are off the world. We don't belong to this world. So as kingdom people, our lifestyle should be very different. Just like we said, our thinking, our thought process should be very different from the way people of the world think. So our lifestyle should be very different. When our lifestyle is different, it's called kingdom living. So as citizens of the kingdom of heaven, our kingdom lifestyle is very different. We look at what Jesus said in Luke chapter 17, verses 20 to 21. Here, Jesus is basically speaking the Pharisees. The Pharisees misunderstood what Jesus was talking about the kingdom. They thought that he was talking about a literal kingdom, a government that he would establish. And so they asked for a sign.  But, you know, Jesus thinking or Jesus teaching or preaching about the kingdom of God, kingdom of heaven was very different from what they understood. And so they asked for a sign that they were looking for a king. And here in Luke chapter 17 was 20 and 21. What does Jesus say? Can somebody read that, please? Luke chapter 17 was 20 and 21. Somebody who's not read, can we hear some other voice? Anyone? Luke 17, 20 to 21. Okay, anyone can read. Luke 17, 20 to 21. I'm reading. Now, when he was asked by the Pharisees when the kingdom of God would come, he answered them and said, the kingdom of God does not come with observation. Nor will they say, see here or see there. For indeed, the kingdom of God is within you. And then the disciples, no, I'm done, I speak faster. Verse 21. Thank you. Yes. So here Jesus said that the kingdom of God does not come by observations. What Jesus meant is he's saying that Jesus said it's not the externals you should be looking for because the kingdom of God is within us. Kingdom of God is within you. So he was making a statement here. He was saying, look, the kingdom of God is not the externals. It's something that works within you. It works within us. So as believers, we need to understand the kingdom of God is within us. And everywhere we go, the kingdom is within us. We are carrying the kingdom of God within us and we are carrying the authority. We're carrying the life, we're carrying the dominion of the King within us. So you can say, instead of us, you can just say you. So everywhere you go, the kingdom of God is within you. You are carrying the kingdom of God within you. You are carrying the authority and all the life and dominion of the King is within you. So the kingdom of God is a spiritual kingdom and it comes from within us. So the kingdom lifestyle is the outworking of the kingdom of God that is in us, just like I explained already. So in the culture, the kingdom of God is within us. Our lifestyle will be like the kingdom of God or like kingdom citizens or the kingdom of heaven citizens. So the kingdom of God is within us, the spiritual kingdom and hence it affects our thinking, it affects our lifestyle, it affects the way we live. So we can put along a list of things that can describe the kingdom lifestyle, but we will just highlight a few. What are the characters of kingdom lifestyle? First one is we will be looking at holiness and reverence. Second is righteousness, peace and joy. Third is power, authority and dominion. Fourth is endurance and suffering. Fifth is forgiveness. Six is no partiality. Seven is readiness for the king and then the eighth one is living a celibate life for the kingdom's sake. So let's look at the first one, holiness and reverence. Let's look at, let's just read 2 Corinthians 6, 14 to 18. 2 Corinthians 6, 14 to 18. Can somebody read that please? 2 Corinthians 6, 14 to 18. Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers for what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness and what communion has light with darkness and what accord has Christ with Belial or what part has a believer with an unbeliever and what agreement has the temple of God with idols for you are the temple of the living God. As God has said, I will dwell in them and walk among them. I will be their God and they shall be my people. Therefore come out from among them and be separate says the Lord do not touch what is unclean and I will receive you.  Thank you. So here Paul again contrasts, you know we see Paul is contrasting the people of the kingdom and the people of the world and he draws a clear separation and a distinction between these two. Now these verses hold true for every facet or every area of our life. So as believers, we have no communion as believers with darkness, with Belial which means worthless or unrighteousness. So we have nothing to do with worthless things, with unrighteous things.  So this does not mean that we disconnect ourselves from the world, but we live in this world. We know there's a distinction between us and the world. And even as we live our lives, this distinction becomes very, very evident. People will see it, people will know it and that is how they will come to know the true and living God. And that is why God chose the Israelites and why did he give them the laws? You know there were 615 laws plus the Ten Commandments, so many laws. Why did he give them all of this? Not to burden them, not to make life difficult, not to make them as slaves under him or bound to him or bound to certain laws and writings, but he gave it to them so that through these laws and through their living and lifestyle, the neighboring kingdoms would come to know the true and living God. So the distinction will become very evident even as we live as kingdom citizens and kingdom lifestyles here on earth. In John chapter 3 verses 19 to 21, John says, Men like darkness rather than light. They prefer staying in darkness. So why do they prefer staying in darkness when their own deeds are not exposed? So the world around us prefers darkness. They prefer doing things in darkness. But you and I as people of the kingdom are not people who are living in darkness. We don't live in the darkness as they are living in darkness, but we are children of light. We belong to a kingdom of light. So we are light in the midst of the darkness. So if the people of the world don't see the light, then they don't see any difference in us, then we must question ourselves. Are we really living the way God wants us to live? But if they question the way we live, why we do things the way we do, why we don't... Everybody else in the workplace is doing this, why aren't you not doing it? It gives us an opportunity to minister God's word. I don't work in a multinational, but my sister works in a multinational, my younger sister. And there are a lot of things that she doesn't do and people all make us think, oh, it's surprising that you don't think that you don't copy and we're sure you're just acting that you don't drink. And then she just gives us a good opportunity to talk about Jesus and to talk about what he has asked us to do and to talk about the kingdom that we belong to. So if people are not looking at our lives and they're not seeing the light, then we must question the way we live, because that's not the way God wants us to live. God wants us to live as light and light dispels darkness. Light is very evident in darkness. And God said we are the light and there is no fellowship with darkness and light. So it's important that we are in this world where there is darkness. It's important to be among people who are living in darkness, but our intentions, the way we live life, should be not to become like them, but to influence them and to reach out to them. But if we don't do that, you know, we will end up in the darkness like them. We end up not showing them the light. We will end up compromising the way we live. Then we are not pleasing to the Father. Okay. We'll just stop here. Our time is up. Anyone has any questions? We'll continue with this in the next class. Anyone has any questions? No questions. I hope you're following me. I hope all of you are there in class. Okay. Okay. Thank you, Subashish. Thank you, Anita. Okay. Then thank you, everyone. Thank you, Rosalind. Thank you for joining class today. Have a blessed day and a week ahead. And I'll see you next week. Thank you.


I'm sure you're all aware of Brexit and Britain's decision to leave the European Union. Fortunately, Bristol was one of the cities that voted to remain within the European Union. International immigration peaked in the city of Bristol in 2004 and 2005. Migrants are concentrated within the inner city wards, and I don't know if you have this slide, but I represent the ward of Lawrence Hill, which is situated within the inner city of Bristol. Until very recently, I represented 20,000 people. The ward was actually redrawn, and I now represent just over 10,000 people. So that gives you an idea of the sort of inequality that people from migrant backgrounds may face when it comes to where in the city they actually live. In terms of health, I heard it mentioned here yesterday that access to health is of a particular concern for people from migrant backgrounds. I was particularly touched by the statement made which explained how vulnerable female migrants when they are pregnant are unable or perhaps unwilling to seek the medical services in the host countries in the form that they are provided in. In Bristol, we've come up with a very unique, tailored and special way to ensure that migrant members of the migrant communities are able to access that support. We're absolutely making sure that we're able to cater to the needs of migrants from the very specific things such as personal appearance, but also in terms of long-term aspirations. We have a lot of migrants with qualifications in the UK, but perhaps those qualifications aren't translated over. We're ensuring that we're giving those people the support to be able to continue their life here.
