And the reverse government and leaders of the state have given the federal government 48 hours to disclose the identities of the security agents behind the invasion of the Abuja home of Supreme Court Justice, Mary Auduli. Governor Newsom Weke thinks it is insufficient for Asu Rockville and the Attorney General of the Federation to merely deny their involvement. He argues that the government should have done a full disclosure of what happened within 24 hours. Justice Auduli's residence was raided in what security agencies later said was a case of mistaken identity. Hello, hope you enjoyed the news.

Okay, so good morning everybody. It's it's great to be back of what is still without doubt the coolest tech conference on the planet. Last year I spoke for the first time about this report that I produced in partnership with Slush and with Oric called the State of European Tech. It's a comprehensive and data-driven guide to what's happening here in our tech ecosystem today. And I'm delighted to be back this year to share our analysis once again. To try to move the discussion beyond the headlines, beyond the skepticism and beyond the hype. And I'm also delighted because this gives me a chance to transcend Brexit and actually feel cheerful about Europe. So as you've heard after I've talked through the highlights, I'll be joined on stage by Roxanne Sebastian and John Thornhill and he's gonna give us a good grilling on stage. So here we go. What's this year's report telling us? Well, there's some good news and there's some bad news. The bad news is is I'm gonna sound like a broken record and the good news is is that I'm becoming a broken record talking about breaking records. 2018 was another record year for investment, a record year for exits and a record year for the creation of billion-dollar companies in Europe. The fact is a two billion dollar exit today wouldn't even make the cut for the top five in Europe this year. And of the ten most valuable global public listings in tech this year, three of them are European. Looking beyond the public markets, there are plenty of companies building and staying private longer too and Sebastian's Clarner is of course a great example of that and at the very earliest stages, both the number of rounds and the amount invested continue to march up and to the right. We've heard a lot of people say that tech is seeing bigger but fewer rounds. Well, that may be elsewhere, but it's not the case here in Europe. Europe is now both harvesting the fruits of its earlier labor and at the same time sewing more promising seeds for the future than ever before. Look at Spotify. Spotify's public listing early this year. It's unequivocal proof that European founders can think big and long term, can hire the best talent, raise the right capital, stave off ferocious competition, go the full distance and still win on a global stage. I think it's hard to think of a company anywhere that has had to fight fiercer competition from the world's largest tech companies and yet still come out on top. It's a defining moment for European tech. So don't ever let anybody tell you that we can't compete on the global stage. We're not going to kid you that it's easy or that everyone will make it, but don't believe for a minute that it's not possible. In fact, not only is it possible, but all of you who are aiming to replicate Spotify's success are a critical part of Europe's economic future full stop. Overall economic growth here is flat-lining. In the third quarter of 2018, Europe's growth rate slumped to just 0.2 percent. That's the lowest rate in four years. And even before that sharp decline, Europe's software industry was growing at least five times faster than the rest of the economy. And that gap is now widening as European tech accelerates and other traditional sectors stagnate or even decline. And as a result, Europe's tech workforce is now growing at 4% year-on-year. So to put that number in context, the European Commission forecast that implanted in the EU as a whole will only grow 1.1 percent this year. So as we all know, tech is bucking the trend of slow economic growth across Europe and represents an important bright spot for the continent. So as all this has happened, it's transformed the performance of European venture capital, which is now highly competitive with both US VC and European private equity, too. So we thought it would be interesting to take a look at the sources of tech investment to understand who ultimately benefits from this growth. In other words, who funds the funders? Well, two things stood out to us. First, a decade of growth has seen previously conservative European family offices turn their attention to tech investment. Over the last five years, family offices and private individuals have invested over five billion dollars in European venture capital. So to be clear, it's not pension funds. It's not sovereign wealth funds. It's governments, families, and then corporates that have been the three key backstops to European tech funding for now. And just imagine the upside when we finally unlock mainstream institutional capital at scale. So not for the first time in this series of reports, I'm going to call out pension funds specifically. Since 2013, pension funds have invested just 1.7 billion dollars in European VC in aggregate, or just 350 million dollars per year. That's less than 0.01% of total assets under management of European pension funds, which total around four trillion dollars. And yet at the same time, they've invested 45 times more in European buyout funds. And that adds up to more than 75 billion over that five-year period. If pension funds were to rebalance their allocations away from legacy industries and towards game-changing technology instead, they could help to bring the future forward here in Europe. And workers would ultimately be the major beneficiaries if they did. And there is some glimmer of hope, though, and it's coming from this very region. Over the last five years in Europe, of the total invested in VC, just 2.2% came from pension funds. However, here in the Nordics, this number is a much more credible 16%. So as ever, you're leading by example here in the North. If last year was about a Batoreal for talent, then this year it's about its effective mobilization in a new generation of hubs. Europe's tech communities are growing fastest in places outside the historic strongholds of London, Berlin or Paris. This is going to fundamentally change the future of talent flows in the region. Until now, tech workers have been 10 times more likely to move country than the average citizen in Europe. That's extraordinary. But a new phase in talent mobility is on the horizon. If the first phase was defined by the flow of European talent moving to the US to build companies, and the second was defined by talent staying to build from Europe, but choosing one of the region's major hubs, going forward, we're set to enter a new and third phase, where talent simply chooses to stay where they are, emboldened by the quality of the local ecosystems that are arising all around them across Europe. And the more that this macro shift evolves, the more that that 10x difference will contract. And so you might say then that this is not the time to put up barriers to put off talent from coming to you, as the UK is already finding out. This year, Germany has caught up the UK as the number one destination for intra-European tech talent migrants, closing what was a significant gap. All of this said, a key challenge for Europe and European tech remains a shallow pool of executive level talent with the experience of scaling tech companies to thousands of employees, to millions of users, or to billions of revenue. And that means we're still reliant on two things. First, attracting global talent here to Europe, including luring Europeans back home from overseas. And second, recycling talent from companies that have achieved big milestones, and then mobilizing them all over again to help build a new generation of companies. Europe now offers compelling opportunities to join all sorts of amazing companies, but those same companies also need to be able to align compensation with global benchmarks to attract even more great talent. And that will require intervention from governments to clean up the mess around stock options in Europe. Our friends from Index Ventures are helping to lead that important charge. And so if you care about this issue and you want to sign the open letter they've drafted, go visit notoptional.eu. So it's been said that people only remember the last thing you say in any presentation. And so with this in mind, we wanted to close on the most important section of our report. We all need to wake up to European tech's diversity and inclusion problem. From the outset of this year's report, we resolved to put this issue front and center. We challenged our data partners to help us measure what is happening. And we asked 5,000 of you to share your experiences. Because if we don't understand the problem, how can we hope to fix it? So we've quantified this as best we can and I'll say now it's not nearly enough and it makes for painful reading. But if this doesn't wake us up, I don't know what will. Europe's diversity and inclusion challenges are bleak. While European tech's fundamentals have never been stronger, monoculture and discrimination are rife in the ecosystem. The data in the report highlights the startling fact that just 7% of VC funds go to female or mixed gender teams in Europe. And the level of funding to other underrepresented groups is even lower than that. And what's more, 46% of women who responded to the survey told us that they have experienced discrimination while working in the European tech industry. So given these facts, it's perhaps even more surprising that 75% of respondents claim that the culture at their startup is inclusive. When it comes to discrimination, it always seems to be somebody else's problem. These results are clearly shocking and the scale of this challenge is enormous. Diversity and inclusion needs to be Europe's first and foremost priority. Just imagine how much talent and value has evaporated away from our tech industry because of diversity and inertia. It's only once people of all demographics, of all experiences and of all perspectives feel safe and confident to participate when we truly realize our full potential. And if Europe takes the lead here, we can build a huge competitive advantage to other parts of the world that are less inclusive. So this is a rallying cry. We all need to do better. And if we do, everyone will benefit. It's a win-win. And the good news is that initiatives aimed at inspiring and empowering women and other underrepresented communities are tackling this head-on and already having a positive impact. Just look around you here at Slush. Change is coming. Diversity VC is one such initiative. And I'm pleased to announce that Atomico has joined forces with them to launch an industry-first resource. A practical and hands-on guidebook for technology entrepreneurs and leaders that will help them to build companies with diversity and inclusion at their core. And to start by taking those first-view daunting steps to know how and where to begin. Francesca Warner, the co-founder and CEO of Diversity VC, will talk more about it tomorrow on this same stage with Atomico's CEO, Nicolas Zendstrom. Don't miss that session. And in the meantime, go check out inclusionintech.com and start today. Europe has shown how much it has benefited from achieving a certain type of diversity. We're strengthened here by our differences. European tech is richer for our blend of diverse cultures, language and heritage. We're not like Silicon Valley, which has coalesced quite brilliantly around a couple of universities and spin-offs within just a few square miles where everyone speaks the same language. And we're not like China either. There is no single government here that can force change and help pick the winners in a closed market with a single culture and population. But to reach our full potential, we need to harness the amazing differences in all of our people. And only then will European tech reach the heights we know it to be absolutely capable of. Thank you.


Hi, and how are you all today? I'm Priyanka and let us do the following question. It says, write the following in decimal form and say what kind of decimal expansion each has. Now, first of all, we need to convert it into decimal form and then we need to tell them what kind of decimal expansion it is. These are the fixed parts of the question which are given to us. And we'll be proceeding it one by one. But before that, you should be well versed with the kind of decimal expansion. They are terminating decimal expansion and non-terminating repeating decimal expansion. Terminating decimal expansion is the kind of where the remainder does not repeat itself, or remainder is equal to 0 in this case. Whereas in this case, the remainder repeat itself after a certain stage. So the knowledge of the kind of decimals is the key idea we are going to use in order to proceed on with our solution. So let us proceed on with the first part. The expression given to us is 36 by 100. So this can be easily converted into decimal without actually doing so, because the denominator is having two zeros. So we can put a decimal sign after before two numbers in the numerator, like this. Since this is, in this case, the remainder will be equal to 0. So this will be a case of terminating decimal expansion. So this ends the first part. Proceed on with the next part. Now the expression is 1 divided by 11. So let us find out or see what the remainder is by actually doing it. So we can have a decimal sign to make it 10, but since 10 is less than 11, so we need to have one more zero in the question column. And then we can make it as 100. Now 11 multiplied by 9 gives us 99. We're left with remainder 1. Again, since the remainder is repeating itself, we'll be having this procedure long and long and long. So the answer to this part will be 0.09 bar. And since it is the remainder repeats itself after a certain stage, it is non-terminating, repeating decimal expansion. So this completes the second part. Proceeding on to the next part, the expression given to us is 4, 1 by 8. Since this is a mixed fraction, we'll first convert it into improper fraction. That will be 33 by 8. Now let us divide 8. 8 multiplied by 4 will give us 32. So we are left with remainder 1. We have a decimal, and we'll drop down 0 from above. 8 multiplied by 2. 8 multiplied by 1 will give us 8. So we are left with remainder 2. Again, we'll drop down 0 from above to make it 20. Now 8 multiplied by 2 gives us 16. We are left with 4. Dropping down 0 from above makes it 40. And 8 multiplied by 5 will give us 40. So the remainder is equal to 0. And hence, it's not repeating itself. So the answer will be 4.125. And we can write that this is a terminating type of decimal expansion. The fourth expression given to us is 3 by 13. Let us divide it. Again, we need to have a decimal. 13 multiplied by 2 will give us 26. We are left with remainder 4. 0 will be dropped down from above. 13 multiplied by 3 gives us 39. We're left with remainder 1. Again, dropping down 0 from above makes it 10. Now we need to have, since 10 is less than 13, we need to have one more 0 dropping down simultaneously. So we'll be having a 0 sign above. Now 13 multiplied by 7 will give us 91. So we're left with remainder 9. Again, dropping down 0 from above, 13 multiplied by 6 will give us 78. We're left with remainder 12. And this procedure will carry on 117. We're left with remainder 3. Now this remainder is repeating itself from the place we started. So that means this whole procedure will go on similarly. And we can have the answer as 0.230769 bar. Because from this point, again, the whole procedure will repeat itself. And hence, it is a non-terminating, repeating decimal expansion. So this completes the part. Proceeding on further, we have 12 divided by 11. Now let us divide it, dropping down it from above. Now 11 eighths are, we'll have 88. We're left with remainder 2, which is repeating itself. Since it is repeating, so we can have the answer as 0.18. And this procedure will repeat on, so we can have a bar. And it will be a non-terminating, repeating decimal. Proceeding on with the last and final part, we have the expression as 329 divided by 400. Again, we need to have a decimal. Then 400 multiplied by 8 will give us 3,200. On subtraction, we get the remainder as 90. Dropping down 0 from above, multiplying 400 by 2, we have 800. So we are left with remainder as 100. Again, dropping down 0 from above, getting the remainder as 200. And now, 400 multiplied by 5 will give us 2,000. And we can have a remainder that is 0. Since the remainder is 0, that means it is what? Yes, it is a terminating decimal expansion. So this completes the entire question which was given to us. I hope you enjoyed the session. And remember, what are terminating and non-terminating repeating decimal types? All right, bye for now.


And so this is yet another reason why you need to be careful about the type of church that you go to, even the type of preacher that you listen to. In and of itself, I am not opposed to a church having a play, a little Easter service, even with the lights and the smoke and so forth and the bands and I don't really have a problem with that. It's just that when you do it and then why you do it when you want to kind of, as he says, push the limits to the edge. I want the person who feels lonely and isolated and like God doesn't care. I want them to see how amazing Jesus actually is and what God actually did for all of us. So I said, we're going to go to the edge on this. And they said, pastor, how far on the edge are we going to go? I said, we're going to do everything short of sin. Oh, y'all, I felt the religious people, they booties got tight right there. And therein lies the issue. How far on the edge you want to go, even to the point where you may offend some people or as they say, the religious people, which it makes me wonder, who does he think or who does he call the religious people? Is it the people that want to hold to the word of God that think that there's something holy about the word of God?  Those people, you know, the people that main thing that you want to hold to a certain standard and not bring the standard down just for the sake of reaching people in the world. Step one. Are you a fatty? I'm a fatty! Hey! Hey! Uh-oh. What is she doing? Friends, I don't have a fatty. Girl, we keep telling you it's okay. Y'all little booty-matter too, friends. Y'all know. They don't be discriminating. James says as he says, you adulteresses, do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility towards God? To be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. This desire to want to reach the world, that's fine. We should all want to do so. But to what cost do we compromise the word? Do we compromise our standing? Do we present ourselves in a light that makes the world think that come on in and be exactly what you were, how you are as you came in? There is no need to change. Or as this church, there's no need to be transformed. So no, you may not wear a yellow and blue checkerboard suit. But I do. And we can be ourselves in this place. And I just thank you, Bishop, for creating the atmosphere for us to have what you're about to see today. In 2015, I became the pastor and I didn't know what a pastor did. I don't think that you still know what a pastor does. I don't think that you get it. With all due respect, I just don't think that you get it. I'm not sure if you know how a Christian is supposed to behave. How a Christian, a growing Christian, is to comport themselves, let alone a pastor. You seem to want to either, if you happen to be saved, there's some doubt about that. But if you happen to be saved, you seem to want to stay in the area or the place of a immature Christian, one that's not growing. And if that's the case, then guess what's going to happen to the members that go to your church? Same thing. They're going to follow the belief of the pastor. If the pastor skirts the issues and the traditions and the trends of the world, wants to be like the world and so forth, well, then guess what they're going to want to do? They won't see the difference and they're going to want to be the exact same way. Peter says that in 1 Peter 2, he says, like newborn babes long for the pure milk of the word, so that by it, you may grow in respect to salvation if you have tasted the kindness of the Lord. In other words, let the word be more important. Desire that. What's wrong with giving people the word of God on Easter of all places? They're going to be there. Now, if they came to see a show and you give them one, they're going to miss out. I promise you, they're going to miss out on the actual word. The focus is going to be all the lights, all the dancing, all the singing. Wow, we had a wonderful time. That was a super demonstration. But then ask them about the word and they'll be silent because they will not know what was said. Give them the word. You have the ability. I think you do the ability to give the word in a way even where it's entertaining to where it holds them. If not, then practice that instead of practicing the stage plays and the performances and so forth. Work on how you deliver the word so that it captivates them. Let them understand the point of all of this. The reason why he died.  But Christ died. He paid a price that you couldn't pay. Give them the gospel and tell them why he died. Why he was buried. Why he was gone for three days. Why he was resurrected and then ultimately why he ascended. Let that be the message. That's what they came for. You've got people that you've never seen that tend to not show up. Here's your opportunity to give them the pure unadulterated gospel. Paul says though, speaking about these types of churches, that the time will come when people will not endure sound doctrine, but rather what they have are itching ears. They want to hear something, see something. What will they do? They will go to find people to preach what they want to hear and the way they want to hear. And let's make sure it's entertaining. Let's make sure, as he says, it's not dry or boring. It's exciting. And so while normally I really don't have a problem, honestly, I don't have a problem with these sort of theatrics in church during a certain, not during a service, but after a service, maybe a special concert or a special play. I don't have a problem with that. It's just that when that takes the forefront of a service and that be the main thing, then we have a problem because we've got people coming to see a performance rather than hearing the word. And so I would say I would caution people to avoid those types of churches, because this isn't the only one avoid those types of churches and go to a place to where they appreciate the word because I can promise you that people in the pew, rather than being entertained for an hour or two hours, these are people that when they hear the word, it will take root in their heart and look at their lives and see how the word of God is growing them, growing in them and growing them. So I would caution anyone from going to or seeing, seeking out places like this. And if that's your church, you might want to reconsider being at that type of church. You might want to go to a place where the word is the most important thing. Why? Because it is the most important thing. Amen.


All right. For Hunter, we have the coach, Elizabeth Coley, junior Miranda Hogan, and junior Haley Trunkin. Coach, just first open statement thoughts on the match tonight. Well, we fought. We fought really hard every single point. I think that, well, I know Stevenson just executed offensively a lot better than we did. They played great defense, and they are very efficient. All right. Obviously, you got off to kind of a slow start in the first match. In the first set, they kind of settled down a little bit. For a while, you're kind of playing toe-to-toe with Stevenson. They just kind of pulled away. Coach, you always just talk about maybe one of the players as well, kind of getting settled down after the initial kind of big crowd and everything else. I think it's a pretty big stage we're playing on. Stevenson's a great team. And I think our nerves were a little high in the beginning. But once we settled down, we started playing our game. Unfortunately, we just dug ourselves in a little bit of a hole in each set. And then Haley and Miranda, if you want to talk about that, kind of the initial kind of shock and then just kind of getting settled down in each set. Yeah, I think what we try to do after every point is we really just try to bring it in and make sure that we're all sticking together. Because we are on a big stage, and there's a lot of people in the audience. So it's easy to get caught up in that. But after every point, we just brought it in, and we tried to think of something that we could focus on for the next one. What do you take away? Obviously, you're a very young roster. You have just one senior. And obviously, you've been at the N6 four straight years now. What do you take away from this, as you continue to try to build the program and hopefully get over that hump and win the first round game and advance the N6 early? I think it's all about experience. And like you said, we're young. And the more we have the opportunity to be on stages like this, the better we'll be. We're just going to have to chip away at it year by year and get better year by year.  We had eight freshmen, two transfers. It really helped us out this season, especially in comparison to last year. And we're just going to build off that. Julia Connelly is a great player. And she will be missed, but we're going to keep moving forward. Miranda, don't talk about that as well. Just the experience of being in the NCAAs and what you'll take away from it, heading to the next season. The goal coming from a conference that isn't that competitive, playing big teams like this does allow us to get more experience. And next year, we hope to play more teams that are more experienced so that we can make it to the next round. All right, thank you very much. Thank you.


Periodically the subject of embassies in Jerusalem makes the news. One of the foreign policy highlights of former President Trump's term in office for example was his decision to move the American embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. The move was highly controversial with Palestinians threatening to set the regional light in response. For a lengthy explanation about why recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capital and moving embassies there is the thorniest of thorny subjects please check out my video about the international community's opinion on the status of Jerusalem. I'll leave a link in the description. Today though let's talk about the situation as it stands at the date I'm recording this which is the start of 2023. As I mentioned Jerusalem is now home to an American embassy. There's also the embassy of Kosovo which is located on King George Street. There's the embassy of Guatemala which is located in the Malcha Technology Park which is in South Jerusalem and there are a few states such as the Czech Republic who are actively considering moving their Israeli embassies to Jerusalem. But if you were to look up embassies in Jerusalem on google maps you might be surprised to see a longer list of diplomatic missions haven't made such a stir in the news. What are these diplomatic missions about exactly? For instance there's the Consulate General of Spain on Machal Street in Jerusalem. Italy has a consulate general on Katztaf Benovember Street in the German colony and Sweden has a consulate general located in Sheikh Jarrah near the American colony hotel. You might drive past some of these properties in Jerusalem, see the characteristic plaques and national flags and assume that these were embassies in Jerusalem that just never made the news. But this isn't the case. The spoiler for this video is that none of these diplomatic missions are actually accredited to the state of Israel. For a little bit more detail stick around. To understand the nature of these unusual diplomatic missions let's firstly talk about how diplomatic missions work in less controversial parts of the world. The diplomatic mission that most people are familiar with are embassies. If a government were a company then embassies would be sort of like the company's head office in a certain geography. Sometimes the country only has a need for one office. In our example this would be an embassy without any consulates operating under it. In other instances the political and trade relationship between the two countries might be such little significance that the country doesn't see the need to open an embassy there at all. In other cases still a country will use its embassy in another country to provide representation to a country that it doesn't have an extensive relationship. This is called a non-resident embassy. One of countless modern examples of this would be the mission of Afghanistan to the Republic of Ireland. Its British embassy located in London is also its non-resident mission to Ireland. If Afghanistan saw Ireland is important enough it would probably open up a new embassy in Dublin but until that happens the mission in London does both jobs. Let's consider cases where a country might have a more far-reaching relationship with another country. For this example let's consider the example of Ireland and the USA. The countries have a significant political and trade relationship and the USA is a rather big place. In situations like these it's not practical for a country to cover an entire country from a single embassy. This is especially the case where the sending country has a large expat community in the receiving country and therefore I can expect to have a significant caseload of consular matters such as issuing and renewing passports which is after all one of the key functions of diplomatic missions. So the country chooses consulates and consulate generals in that country and sometimes also honoree consulates. In other words it establishes its own diplomatic network in the receiving country with its own internal hierarchy with the embassy at the top. Consulates are like local offices of an embassy and in the normal practice they are subordinate to the embassy which means that the ambassador of the embassy is sort of the boss in the country and has responsibility and authority over his or her consuls and consul generals. Typically the embassy is situated in the receiving country's seat of government and the consulates are located in significant cities or really wherever it makes the most sense for that country to have ears and visa issuing stamps on the ground. The distinction between a consulate and a consulate general if you're wondering is less clear-cut but typically a consulate general is one step higher than a regular consulate on the diplomatic packing order. Finally countries sometimes appoint honoree consuls to give them exclusive or supplementary representation in a country. Honoree consuls are sort of like amateur and usually unpaid diplomats who typically undertake their representational duties as a sort of sideline. In exchange for fostering connections between two countries they enjoy some diplomatic privileges and get to hand out Freire Roche at 20 dinner parties. Sounds like fun no? So let's go back to the Ireland-America diplomatic relationship. This will help us to understand how normal diplomatic networks work and why the situation in Jerusalem is so anomalous. Here's a real-world example. Ireland's embassy to the US is located in Washington DC which is of course America's capital. But Ireland also has consulates in Austin, Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, LA, New York and San Francisco. In addition to that honoree consuls help plug the geographic gaps. Together the network ensures that Ireland has political representation and can provide consular services throughout a rather big country. As explained in a previous video, the international consensus position remains that the city of Jerusalem should be governed as a special international protectorate termed the corpus separatum, which means the separated body in Latin. Under this idealized version of foreign relations it makes sense to open tentative quasi embassies which have representative power to the city of Jerusalem rather than the state of Israel even though the state of Israel exercises sovereignty over Jerusalem. Some of the consulates in Jerusalem serve as de facto representative offices to the Palestinian authority or the PA. This is especially true for missions that are based on the east of the green line such as the consulate general of Sweden. Under the prevailing international worldview, Israel's sovereignty over east Jerusalem is illegal and null and void and therefore I guess it makes sense that they can put diplomatic offices there that liaise between all parties or just the PA. Some countries have missions to the Palestinian authority which are based in PA controlled areas like Area A for instance Ramallah. An example would be Ireland's representative office of the PA which is situated in Ramallah while others are based in Jerusalem. While it may sound like a conspiracy theory to claim that Jerusalem is full of diplomatic missions which deny that Israel is legitimate sovereign over the city and serve effectively as representative missions to the PA this is actually pretty much the case. Because these consulates and consulate generals are sort of self-standing entities with a unique status they also do not report to their country's embassy. As I explained previously under the normal course of affairs a consulate or a consulate general will be subordinate to the country's embassy in whatever country that's hosting these missions. However because the status of the missions in Jerusalem is unique that's not the case. Rather the country's embassies and Jerusalem consulates are sort of parallel but independent operations both reporting to the government's foreign ministry but independently. The consulate general of France in Jerusalem for instance reports directly to the French foreign ministry and not to its embassy in Tel Aviv. It has jurisdiction over Jerusalem the Gaza Strip and the West Bank and does not have official diplomatic relations with the state of Israel. Until recently the United States maintained a consulate general on a grown street whose purpose was to maintain diplomatic relations with the Palestinian authority. Somewhat recently that was subsumed into a newly created Palestinian affairs unit housed within the U.S. embassy much to the disappointment of Palestinians but until this policy shift which took place under the Trump administration the U.S. practice in this regard mirrored that of other countries with diplomatic missions in Jerusalem. One mission to the Palestinian authority or the city of Jerusalem, one to Israel and no subordination between the two. I could go through every consulate and consulate general in Jerusalem in total there are eight of them but suffice to say that a very similar picture would emerge in each case. If you want to learn more about this interesting topic then I'd recommend an article entitled Jerusalem already has plenty of embassies just not to Israel. It was published by Elon Aslan Lavi in the tower a few years ago and I'll leave a link in the video description. It has more detail than I shared here. I hope that was useful and if you'd like to get more videos about everything related to Jerusalem and Israel do feel free to subscribe to the YouTube channel. Thank you for watching and listening.


During nursing school I switched over to the to go get my EMT and all that so that's when I got my first taste in like the EMS world and I saw how that was compared to into the nursing schools.  I'm Sergeant Joshua Adams. I'm with Charlie Company 3238 the Medevac and I'm one of the medics. So the training you got to go through for the flight medic for the guard is you have to have your paramedic depending on if you go through the pipeline or if you do it civilian side like I did. I did mine through civilian side so it took about nine months to get my medic and then you got to go to critical care school. It's probably about a three-month course but it's a lot more hands-on and more into the critical side things. Being a medic it's kind of like one of those things if you don't do it you're gonna lose it so being in this career field I'm able to still use my skills so when I go back to home to my civilian job I'm not losing my critical necessities. So in the civilian sector I work for the city of Lima the fire department. I'm a firefighter paramedic there. I first got hired for the city of Lima in 2017 within one week I got deployed to Puerto Rico for the thing so I spent 90 days down there and then it's been an ongoing battle I probably have only worked for them maybe nine months total in the three years I've worked there but they're all very supportive so it's actually pretty nice good place to work for.


Today I want to just kind of repeat quickly what I mentioned and what we've talked about last week about anonymous intruder how Satan likes to attack people and he Manipulates people that when people come for help to him. They don't really get help. They just get more demons with different names and Last week we talked about the idea that our God is a good God and everything he does is very good and The devil is a bad devil and everything he does is really bad But one of the characteristics that Satan has is a characteristics of always being anonymous in our life He wants to in a life of a Christian to do mess and for the Christian never to know that the devil was there Because then the Christian will be tempted to blame God for the troubles that he's facing This is the devil's plan for you Take credit for the good things that happen to you Blame God for the bad things that happen to you and always leave him out of the picture He wants you to take credit for the good blame God for the bad and leave him out of the picture To think of him that he's on a vacation He is chillaxing But for most of us as Christians we know God is not guilty We are not worthy and the devil is not innocent somebody say man God is not guilty. He's not responsible for the problems. We are not responsible for the good things That's the grace of God and the devil. He is not innocent He has his fingerprints over every pain and trouble that people face on this world and somebody say man We don't shift blame on the devil, but we sure don't let him go off the hook Amen And so that's what we talked about last week and it's important that we keep that in mind The Bible talks about Satan passed already mentioned after worship that he is a thief And if you know anything about a thief or if God forbid you were a thief You know one thing about a thief a success of a thief is being able to take something without somebody pointing it to you correct When they point it to you or they find you you're not a successful thief you become a criminal and you go to jail I remember when we had our youth group account money account long time ago and So we gathered 126 or $24. It was long time ago. It was right in that office and we were not wise We were not educated So what we did is we left the money there in the office and and we had one thief Amongst us who was part of us kind of Judas and He came and he sold us a DVD to our youth group He sold us a DVD. We found out that DVD he sold us. He stole from somebody Then we had to return the DVD because we found out later and the $124 went missing and it's not because the money had rapture. It's because the money had a visitor and We did not know who it was Until we noticed that our homeboy we were all you know teenagers so we were pretty broke and He started to wear brand new pants Brand new like all the new clothes. He was not a wise thief You know, you don't want to wear same if you stole money. You don't want to buy things on the same week And so he bought him on the same week and we started to notice that he's dressing up Taking everybody to Starbucks and just defeating everybody and we started to kind of ask around if his parents gave him money If he worked anywhere, they said no and then we found out quickly that it was our brother Who had his hands? involved in the $124 missing from our youth account and He was not successful thief In our church, we had a camera stolen We have three cameras We had three cameras and one camera disappeared and I can assure you till this day We do not know who took it. It's gonna be my probably first question in heaven When I'm gonna show up literally almost every person who gets delivered in our church from our church And after they get delivered, I said, okay, you've done a lot of sins. Can you tell me please? Did you take the camera? I? Remember I asked our cousin David. I asked a lot of other people who got delivered.  We know the demon was behind it But I need to know for my consciousness sake did you take the camera because it bothers me the fact that it was taken And I know it's not somewhere laying. It's most like you've been sold four times somebody made money on it Because when something is missing, it's not really missing somebody took it sold it on Greg's list and made a lot of money off of it and That's what the characteristic of the devil He wants to take something and he never wants to leave a trace in such a way that you cannot connect That something is missing is connected to him. That is his characteristic. He likes to remain anonymous That's why he hates when people get delivered from demons because when the demons speaks out in the presence of the fire of God The person gets free from a demon, but the Christians us we get free from ignorance a Light goes on in our mind boom ah This person is saying they don't have affection in their marriage and the devil says he's behind it And you're looking maybe in your marriage Or you know somebody who has a marriage and has no affection or all not just you know that things are challenging or conflicts But literally no affections and you tempt it with something else. You're like, oh, I know who's behind this the devil is a liar And he's a thief a man And so that is why it's so important for us to see testimonies to hear deliverances to read the Bible We mentioned last week that Satan sometimes uses a cult and through witchcraft and through all kinds of horoscopes through talking to the dead people through visiting the cemetery through Dream catchers through all kinds of other participation Satan slips into our life We mentioned last week also that through nightmares many times the devil comes in And he can torment people's lives through Nightmares when nightmares happen to people and people get tormented We know that as dreams dreams come from three sources. They come from God They could come from you and they can come from the devil a lot of people Become very obsessed with their dreams Like some people feel like if a dream came to past that's this means God spoke to me And it's very important not to get fooled by the devil to become obsessed with your dreams That you remove the value of the word of God in your life When a dream comes to past once and twice and third time that does not mean you should start an unprofit prophetic ministry That doesn't make you a prophet because sometimes the fifth dream could come of something bad And you will begin to be tempted to not know okay for dreams came to past They must be from God and this dream must be from God, and you will live your life confused It's important to hear God speak through his word and by his spirit and not to let our life be driven away 100% by dreams can somebody say amen this week I met a young lady whose boyfriend died a month ago, and she said that she asked God To speak to her so she will see that boyfriend in the dream And so that that boyfriend will tell her that he went to heaven And I was like and what happened sake he came to me, and I know he went to heaven And I was like based on what that I had a dream he went to heaven. I was like, can you imagine you're playing games with fire I'm like, what if he comes tomorrow and says he went to hell He said I will be devastated I'm like, where did you find in the Bible that you should place your trust on the fact that in the dream He said to you he went to heaven Your foundation is a nothing but the blood of Jesus Christ if he placed his trust in the blood of Jesus The seal is over the deal is over, but I want to know whether he went to heaven The blood says a person goes to heaven when they put their trust in the blood of Jesus Christ Can somebody say amen and so it's important that we remain very Not too open-minded concerning our dreams where we put our trust in the word of God and the promise of the word of God Can somebody say amen? We also mentioned last week that it's important to understand that true pornography Demons enter many times demons enter person's life through pornography or all kinds of sexual Proversions when the person begins to watch pornography we must understand that pornography is something that is The worst part about pornography along with many other perils is that it creates within you an appetite That could never be satisfied It's an athlete's food the more you scratch it the more itches and then you want more harder pornography Harder pornography harder pornography until you start wanting that kind of pornography Where people from the outside will look at you and they say you are crazy and that's exactly what happens to people they go Crazy and when they get married even when they are Christians They could never be happy with the marital sexual relationship because in pornography you're taught to always Prevert things and to go harder and harder and harder and you will never be happy and in the opposite at the end You can actually become a person whom they can lock up in a mental institution Pornography is not just naked girls Pornography has a demon behind it many people will say but God made people naked Have you noticed that the before they get any children God clothed them and in heaven there's gonna be no naked glorified bodies Everybody's gonna have their clothes on So the next thing you use the whole idea God made everybody naked So God wants me to enjoy the devil is a liar and he lied to us and he lies to our generation To say that lie he stands behind that perversion and he wants to corrupt you wash down your boundaries And eventually create within you an appetite that even pornography will never ever satisfy There's gonna be not enough pornography in the world not enough heart pornography to ever Satisfy and urge inside that urge the Bible says must be nailed on the cross And so you can enjoy your life for the glory of God and somebody say man And that demon needs to be kicked out of our life so that we can live freely and when you get married Enjoy sex for the glory of God Amen We also last week mentioned that when we disobey and dishonor our parents the enemy can slip in when we Hold on to unforgiveness the enemy can slip in if you have your bible I want to read the verse one more time that I read last week and Just continue mention a few more thoughts Before we go to prayer in Matthew chapter 13 verse 30 says the following Let both grow together until the harvest and at the time of harvest, I will say to the reapers First Gather to gather the tears and bind them in bundles to burn them But gather the wheat into my barn This is the same parable that I was talking to you last week about This is the second parable Jesus shared in Matthew chapter 13 And the parable goes like this a good man sowed a good seed While they slept a bad man an enemy came sowed bad seed And then they asked the question who sowed the bad seed the master said the enemy sowed the bad seed And next thing that happened is they asked what should we do Should we go and pluck things out and he said no wait He said let things grow a little bit and then he says at the harvest time I am going to send the reapers And they will go and gather up the tears and they will gather them up in the bundle and throw them in the fire And then I'm going to tell them to gather the wheat and put it into my barn Now the usually the practical application of this parable is that in this world There are people who don't believe in Jesus and there are people who do believe in Jesus And at the end of age what's going to happen is people who don't believe in Jesus that they will go into Hell fire Not because They are worse than other people But because their sins were not covered by the blood of Jesus And the Christians people who believe in Jesus as their savior they will go into God's barn means into heaven into God's place But today I want to look at this scripture Not to twist it or take something out of a context But I just want to simply bring something that will apply to you today Not when you die not when the end of the world is going to happen, but something that you can apply today The tears represent anything the devil does in our lives The wheat represents things that God wants to do in our life. The soil is you And the Lord says number one Let's gather up all the tears and throw them in the fire. So we see fire destroys the tears Let's take the weed and let's put it into my barn And barn represents a community of believers, which we called the church A barn represents a home group a barn represents where you are in the community you gather together in the assembly of saints And in that barn we can use our logic. You the grain is not just stored there For a show a grain eventually is removed and placed on the threshing floor Where it's unfortunately gets a little bit beaten and the chaff around the grain falls off And so the grain remains alone they take that grain grind it out And the grain gets turned into flour and then the flour gets made into a bread and a lot of hungry people have bread So this is God's process Remove the tears throw them in the fire put the weed into the barn And take the weed and make it into a bread I want to simply share with you from this verse Three most three important factors in your life The one factor that we already just mentioned Is the fire factor The fire factor that is mainly two fires in this world There is a fire that's waiting everybody who doesn't know The first fire The last fire is the hell fire and the first fire is the holy fire The holy fire is the fire.  You must know the person of the holy spirit There is no freedom Tears cannot be removed from the soil of my heart Without the person of the holy spirit Holy spirit is a person But holy spirit also has power and his power in the scriptures is symbolized in the form of a fire He is a person that can be known and talked to and fellowshiped with But his fire Is what he has and when his fire begins to touch your issues Your issues churn to ashes Your issues they churn to powder They churn to nothing and they get completely and wiped out Jesus said that he casts out demons through the power of the holy spirit When you want to live free life, you must understand you have to get to know The person of the holy spirit and welcome the fire of the holy spirit in your life There is a human effort involved here Before the fire came If I could say like that or before Things were thrown into the fire The servants whom Jesus calls in this parable reapers did their job They gathered all of the wheat all of the tears, excuse me They gathered all of the things that needed to be destroyed. They plucked them out One by one Gathered them in the bundle and then threw them into the fire The issue sometimes exists when it comes to deliverance or when it comes to freedom Is that many times Instead of plucking The demonic activities out of our life. We take a jar with water and go water it And sit on the sidelines and ask god to send the fire to burn what we water Do you understand what i'm saying?  So i'm not gonna do nothing about it I want god's fire to come and burn my field But god's fire is waiting for you to do the groundwork and So when his fire comes God will add his super to your natural to make it super natural But god will not add super if there is no natural There has to be a natural effort placed a hunger and a desire For god to put his mark and mark that effort by his fire and by his blessing The bible even says god will bless the work of our hands If we don't work with our hands god has nothing to bless Jesus allowed disciples to ask them Do you guys have anything that i can touch? They said we don't have much but we have two loaves and two fish Jesus could have said well, that's not enough. Let me make bread out of a cloud Because what you have is not enough anyway. No, Jesus says bring everything you have And when you bring everything you have I am going to add what I have and then we both are going to have a miracle You want to have a miracle in your life? Jesus is asking Bring me everything you got You want to be free from pornography?   When Elijah was on the mountain The bible says that he waited for god's fire to come, but this is what Elijah said Lord, I have done everything according to your word And then fire came Many of us we come to god and we say god I did nothing according to your word let your fire come so I can start doing something But that's not how fire comes I remember when being a teenager when I was exposed to pornography and about 14 years ago when I struggled With pornography and when I say struggled I mean struggled Most people when they say they struggle with pornography. They mean they indulge in pornography There's a difference between struggling and indulging Struggling is when you're fighting indulging is when you're indulging And I struggled with it because I knew it was a sin and my consciousness killed me And the first thing that I remember I had to do is go and tell the person who I was scared to tell to it was my pastor It would have been better for me In that day instead of going telling my pastor that I Fell into sin as a 15 or 16 year old teenager. It would have been better to physically die I knew that probably going to him is he's not going to take away my problem But something had to done something had to be done God could not deliver me Until I would tell him I have done everything In my power Until babblarser prayed for me Benin prayed for me I prayed for me and my pastor prayed for me and then I said lord I'm done And God says okay now I will begin That's why I pushed prayer and fasting That's why I pushed all of these things why because I've recognized one thing I could not wait for God Because maybe God was waiting for me God's fire comes When there is some work that's done within us and we show to him We are genuinely interested for you to move in our lives You want to see difference in your dreams I will ask you a question What would happen if you will stop watching movies before you go to sleep but read the scripture Don't tell me that I want God to move but you did not make a room for him to move Even Jesus refused to come on earth without sending John the Baptist to prepare the way God's fire is not going to come until you prepare your way until you bring your natural and God says Let me add my super to it Until you bring your five loaves and to fish and Jesus says yes I know that's all you have and honestly that's enough for me because if I add my fire to what you have My fire is going to do a miracle in your life But don't expect God to come in and you will have your taco somewhere in your bag Don't expect God to bless what you do not give it to him Everything you have pull it out of you and say God that's all I have and I depend on your mercy And if your mercy doesn't show up this is not going to be enough But with your mercy it's going to be more than enough because somebody say hallelujah Give God all that you have And he will touch it with this fire He will touch it with this fire and you will see people in scorn who get delivered They don't get delivered an accident I remember I was talking to my cousin martin who Is a disciple in the scorn and he told me that he had to prepare for months for his deliverance I was like what do you mean? I was like my definition preparing for deliverance is committing more sin The more sin you do the more you're ready for the really for deliverance because that's what it's kind of like for fasting You know, how do you prepare for fasting you eat more? That's how you prepare for deliverance. I mean the way you prepare to deliverance You really go get those sins deep and down and he says no prophet send me a three-day dry fasting Just No water and no food three days to prepare for deliverance And then I came to him and I said mind of God pray Can I go in so that I can receive prayer and maybe receive deliverance? not ready uh-huh So deliverance doesn't just come because you sign up for a prayer line Deliverance comes when you put all of your bundles together And then the fire comes And if you accept to hide your little bread in one pocket and you fish in the other and say Jesus I don't have anything. Can you give me something? You might not get anything from Jesus Maybe what you have is not enough, but it's enough with God's touch But if you are not gonna give God what you have God cannot touch it can somebody say amen And after this touch he takes He goes the next thing as we see the fire, but we also see the barn The barn or they take the weed and they break the weed so that The chaff will be broken and so that the grain will be grinded out For making of bread It's important to recognize that many people that Jesus delivered from demons They were never discipled by him Though they were delivered through him They didn't submit themselves to be discipled by him And eventually those people their names you don't know Do you know the name of a person who was deaf and mute who was delivered from the demon? We don't Do we know the name of the person who was had a little boy who had epilepsy and moon struck? The bible says when jesus came from the mountain, we don't know him such a powerful deliverance We only know one mary who had eight demons and then she followed Jesus because a lot of these people They experienced the fire of God on them, but they never took the good part of them and submitted to the barn Because we live in a generation of me myself and I We live in a generation where we love our own space And we love nobody to tackle and mess with my Grain because well, it's my grain. It's my life and I'm gonna do whatever I want with it Many times that is the problem And because that grain the good part see the bed needs to be burned the good needs to be broken The good needs to be broken Not only the bed but also the good that you have needs to go into a barn and in that barn Things need to be shifted and things need to be broken inside of you I was reading a story of haigar and haigar was an egyptian slave She was a slave and she was also a servant to Sarah and to abraham and one day the bible says when she became pregnant and she started to despise her Her mistress Her her boss Sarah and she started to look on her down with despisement because well She got a baby inside and not only she got a baby inside She also her head started to swollen because some people you give them this much success And they give you attitude Because when nothing is good with them they they're quiet they're down But when things begin to just go like this people immediately everything just they just become so arrogant They don't need the church. They don't need this. They don't need that It's they're only with god when things are bad And they leave god when things are really good and that's what exactly what happened to haigar She developed an attitude. She became proud. She became arrogant She forgot if it wouldn't be for sarah, she would never have a child If she wouldn't be if wouldn't be for sarah. She forgot that her baby here Sarah had everything to do with it that sarah had a part in it and instead of recognizing it she Just went and threw an attitude so she decided to run and leave Because she's like i don't need sarah and i don't need those people to look at me funny And so she left and the angel of god meets her in the wilderness and the angel said this to her He said what you're caring is huge It's going to be mighty nations mighty nations But in this wilderness what you're caring is going to die You have to go back to where you came from that woman that you think she has attitude You have to go back and submit yourself to her and talk that community of people who worship jahovah Submit yourself to that community and only there that which you carry can be birthed And that could be raised and at the right time you will be released from that environment to go do what you think you should do And haigar humbled herself went in and she found sarah and said sarah I'm sorry. She found abraham and says abraham. I'm sorry She grew there the child was born and the child became great I want you to notice not only you need holy spirit You also need a mentor and a community to grow A mentor and a community to grow You need a coach If you don't have a coach Your gift will remain a grain. It will never be developed. It will remain as it is Because you never had somebody who will pull it out of you and stretch you and push you and literally sometimes Challenge you and correct you and give you opportunity for that gift to develop without a coach you remain a grain If you're getting married you need a coach You need a family that's been married more than you so they can challenge and they can encourage and they can guide you Without a coach you might be free But you will never be fulfilled and you will not be effective for the kingdom of god Because somebody say amen You need a coach and you need a community of believers a coach comes into your life and a coach does two main things He compliments and he corrects And if you have a lot of pride his correction will make you suffer The more pride you have the more painful will be for you to be discipled The less pride you have the easier will be for you to be discipled A coach is sent into your life to speak life into you when you don't believe it And you have to believe when he's compliments you and you have to believe when he corrects you I didn't believe I could be a great preacher I still doubt that till this day My pastor he encourages me He doesn't give me too much encouragement so it doesn't get into my head My courage encourages me just enough when I think that the service went so bad that I want to Ask Jesus to take me to heaven the next day and the pastor calls and he would say things like and I know when he's not flattering He would say things like you know You are the best preacher in this town And I'm literally sometimes I'll pull my foot and I'll just laugh because I'm like that's just that's just That's just not true But you know when somebody says that a lot to you You cannot start to believe that And you might not agree with that because completely fine But my pastor when I was younger 13 years of age driving in the van with him He would do completely construction. He would turn to me and he said you are going to preach You are going to be a powerful preacher. You guys will do crusades and I remember Listening I never wanted to tell him that I'm not gonna do it because he was older than me I was afraid of him And I I just did not want it to get crushed and so I just like I just shut up I was like, okay, okay other people never paid attention to those compliments I took those compliments seriously and honestly today. I can boldly say I am not preaching today because I am eager to preach I am preaching today because I am submitted to a barn And I have a person Who breaks my chaff on a regular basis My insecurity my fears my feeling that says I am not gonna make it nothing's gonna happen And he breaks the rough and says, you know what this grain can be grain and this grain can be great If you let this grain to be broken into the way god wants it to be broken If the best basketball players in the world have coaches Jesus needed a father to mature and to take care of him You are not even jesus and you think you don't need that You need a coach You may have degrees more than thermometer But you still need a coach You may read every book in love, but you still need a coach Maybe you feel like you have a gift to speak you need a coach in your life. Your coach may be younger than you Your coach may be not the same race as you but you have to submit yourself to your coach In that form your pride is going to die and your destiny is going to thrive When your pride will thrive your future will die When you live in the wilderness isaac will die When you submit yourself consistently to a community of believers not showing up on church when we have a prayer line And just to see the power of god Not showing up in church and say when is the wise man coming or when is tb joshua coming? I will be there for sure, but i'm talking about consistently coming every single service Do you know the difference between our leaders? And everybody else who comes to church Do you know why they speak the way they speak? The way they have influenced the way they have influenced because number one They have submitted themselves to this community inconsistency Something happens to your character when you choose consistency in the community Community causes you to deal with your issues because sooner or later one or the other of us is going to punch Your pride and your pride like a balloon will deflate and you will have a reason like haigar to run for your life And said these people are crazy as crazy as the other church are ran to and as crazy as the other church are ran to I have i'm calling in my life i run from things when they get challenging That's not how your character will get developed Your character gets developed when you stick through one place and you stick it in consistency And that's when the grain breaks and that's when the destiny gets developed can somebody say amen It also happens when you have a coach not only community, but you have a coach you have a cell leader You have a pastor a person who can speak into your life and the person who can say Our service starts at 10 for you it starts at 9 And you're coming here at 10 30 Not again. You're like, yes, sir Not how dare she talk to me like I've been only coming here for three months Does she know who I am does she know who what I've been does she know how many scriptures I know That does he know who I am I should not be talked like that I am offended in this church and see when you have that kind of attitude Guess what's gonna happen? You are not going to grow period. You are gonna remain grain. You will never become bread You will not feed other people.   Thank you, but it's not gonna go into this and when it's a correction Thank you also for the feedback. It will not go here. I will survive through this for the glory of god because somebody say man When you go through the barn god does something he breaks your grain And he makes it into a flower and then he makes the flower into a bread Jesus came on earth as grain But he became bread How did he become bread? not Created bread He became bread because in the garden of Gethsemane. He gave the grain and said father I want you to make salvation for the whole world Out of my submission to your will He died It seemed like it's over. But one thing I loved about my god is anything you sacrifice to him You will always get much more of the same in a better quality Jesus came back three days later Except now he walked through the walls Except now he was in a completely glorified body when you give something to god It will come back to you not right the way There will be those three-day period where everything will go crazy. You're like I lost everything. I'm not getting anything This is not working.  His name was jason He struggled with drugs And he decided to instead of fight drugs on his own he decided to admit himself to a rehab center He went to this rehab center that we are familiar with very great Rehabilitation center. He went there for one year. He had children But he knew that it's better for him to sacrifice one year To get clean Then to spend that one year on drugs and trying to be close to his children He sacrificed a year with his son so he can be Free During that year his son developed a disease Where they found a hole in his son's heart After a year of this rehab center He couldn't wait to leave the rehab to go be with his son who literally probably is going to die very soon But during one of those times in prayer he's he heard god say Placed on his heart that you need to spend one more year here because you're stable in your freedom, but You're not too stable. You need to spend one more year imagine his family Looked at him and said what an irresponsible father We knew you didn't even deserve to have children.  No these children are so precious Within three months they took those three children until the end of his life He will never be able to see them Why? Because he didn't sacrifice a year To get a lifetime This brother named Jason After two years came back home It was greatest amazement when they went back to the doctor to examine his son They found no hole in his son's heart Today every single day he spends with his son And it's been over probably eight years He's been spending time with his son and honestly he's gonna do the rest of his life Why?  I had a lot of thoughts You know, if I'm gonna take care of this who's gonna take care of me? If you're gonna take care of God's kingdom, who's gonna take care of your kingdom? Not that we have a kingdom, but who's gonna take care of your kingdom? And the interesting part is when we started to give When we plan to give I have a rental and I have one unit that is not rented out Usually in the past six years If for me it was never a problem to rent something out It took me two three weeks and usually it would be rented out And I told the lord my heart that if I get the rent I will start giving But I knew that's not gonna be faith And so I made a decision against my own feelings that i'm gonna give And the rent is going to come So last month, you know, we took a certain amount. It was a large sum of money and we gave Well, the rent didn't come And for the two months in a row, I did not find tenants And it was painful Because I am looking at my My thing and I was like, God, I'm not gonna make it. This is this is too hard. This is this is challenging My faith is really being stretched and I sprayed the anointing water in that apartment like crazy Went all around with and I was like the devil is a lie any curses. I'm breaking it and everything But but I sense this is not the cursing problem that is happening We went to massachusetts with my wife and I was very fortunate that they took us both of us and they paid for our trip For us both to go there. They put us in a very nice hotel very nice hotel But I found out that everything that they did they did from the youth group account Now I we have a youth group and I know youth group accounts Okay, 300 400 500 that's about good prosperous youth group account So I was very surprised how they were able to do that at the end of the meetings before we left We already purposed in our heart that we are going to give this month Even if we don't find rent we're gonna find money And not only to that ministry but something else and we place this number in our heart, which we don't have money for And before we left the airport That youth group account hands us a check And well It was a check that blew me out because I have never ever in my life Has handled half Of what I received on that day in my hand I looked at my wife and I said This this is impossible. This is impossible Because I wasn't asking God to give me money. I was asking God to give me money so I can pay my seeds I was like God let the prosperity just give me something so I can still continue to give because I don't have what to give of this month and Literally, we've never had and I've spoken to youth groups before for seven and eight days in a row or seven eight sermons And never came close and I've spoken to some very wealthy churches What God did during that weekend and when we came I told her First of all, we will never be able to out give God and secondly when we put God's kingdom first They will God Will take care of us And the way God will take care of us is going to be better than the way we could ever take care of ourselves Because somebody say man, I want to encourage you today. God is going to step into your situation Do not be afraid to sacrifice Do not be afraid to yield your life Do not be afraid to submit because God is going to give you more of what you give to him every single day in Jesus name


Hello, this is Christian. So in this video, I'm going to go over unit 2, the bootstrap theme for you. Now, in the video here is based on an older theme that had a folder called vendor, which I'd noticed that the newer version of the bootstrap doesn't have that anymore. So we're going to fix that, OK? I wasn't able to find the old files anymore, so I'm very fortunate. But the change is very simple, actually. It's actually much simpler than the previous one. So if you click this link here, it takes you here. And again, for this app, you can use anything with your choice. If you like a different theme, feel free to use that or build your own, or you don't have to use anything, but I'll just make your page really nice. That's OK. But if you do want to use this theme, then here's the download. Click that. And what you're going to get is a zip file. You unzip that to your system. So in my example, I found a desktop. It opened that folder. And you're going to see these files in here. So again, notice there's no more vendor folder in here, OK? And they took that out because they're using a CDN as opposed to the vendor for the bootstrap, which is OK. So what you do is that now in your Angular application, make sure it's running. So you can see the output. So here's the app that's running right now already. And we want to get rid of this bar on the top and then maybe add a footer on the bottom. That's what this theme will look like, right? So that's what we're going to do. So over here, under the fly app, inside the src folder, you're going to have this index HTML. This is the index of the root template that Angular uses. So you want to move anything that this file needs into this file, right? And so in your zip file, zip folder, and all you have to do is the access folder is nothing. They're just the favicon. So I don't really need it because Angular only has one. As you can see, the assets, I mean, not in here too, but they would have a favicon. So you can just ignore that. And that is this favicon here, OK? And so what we're going to do is we're going to drag. So basically, you want to drag this, I mean, not the index, but drag the CSS and JS into the assets folder. I think it seems to be working better that way. And then the index is, it doesn't matter. You can pull on there. It's fine. So I'm going to drag all of these, OK? Put it inside the assets folder. So they're in here now. If it doesn't let you drag and drop in here, then you need to go and find where this file is on your window, a system or your Mac or whichever system you're using, and copy into this folder. So from here, it's very easy to find. You can right-click on this folder here, for example. Right-click on it, review an Explorer. And that should open up your window. And that's where you store your file, right? This is the SRC of this folder. And then here, then you can go ahead and open that. And then the other folder, what I had earlier was over here. And then same thing, just drag it and put it inside here, which I did already, so you can see it's already here, OK? And so you can close this and close this as well. Now, because we're inside the SRC folder, the assets folder here, you want to move things over, OK? So like in the JS file, this is the one that the template uses. If you open that, you've run it. It should look exactly like you saw on the site. So if I run this file, OK, hopefully it will launch it. OK, so you can see this is our Angular app. And this is the theme that you want to use, all right? So we just want to grab the navigation bar and the footer bar here. So the internal content, we don't really need it. But we do want to keep the CSS and the JavaScript that comes with this template, all right? So let's go back here and go back into the theme here, OK? So this is the template we want to use. So again, you don't need the file icon. We just need the style sheet, which is this one here. I'll copy the comment with the two, so I don't know what's going on. And then copy it and then paste it to your file here, the Angular file, right? So it's in here. And then go back and then I need the navigation, which is this line 15, all the way to line 29. Copy that, OK, put it into the body. It's right above the app root tag. Then you put the footer right below here. So the footer is at the very bottom. You're going to skip all of these, go to the very bottom, and here's the footer, including the two scripts, OK? So copy everything here and then paste it right down here. And so it looks pretty good, right? Now notice that this file is outside here, but the scripts and the CSS are inside the assets folder. So relative to this file. So we need to add here assets slash then CSS. That's already good to go. Same thing down at the bottom. So assets slash js, OK? And just do a right click and format. So make it nicer. And there we go. So this is the navigation on the top. I'll collapse this. You can see better. And the footer down here along with the two scripts. And the reason why there's no more vendor folder is because they're using the CDN coming directly from the internet now, as opposed to downloading the bootstrap themes or the other CSS and everything that has it with the bootstrap. So now they're using the CDNs before they got rid of the vendor folder. That's why you don't see anymore, OK? So with this method, though, however, you have to make sure that you're always on the internet because it's connecting to the internet, right? That's the only thing. OK, so say that. And then if you go back to the web page, hopefully it will have some changes. Refresh that page. OK, so you see that the navigation, the footer is already changed. The navigation tab is there. You just don't see it because this blue bar is hiding it. So for example, if you refresh it, you can see it right away, right? You go like that and then boom, it's gone. So if I do that for hide this bar, which is the Angular bar, you should see that right there, right? So it's right there already. So we want to do that. So we just want to get rid of the content inside the Angular app here. So to fix that, basically, very simple. So you can go back to this file. And I think it's already part of the video, but I'll show you just very quickly anyway. So this part is pretty much done for this integration. And then continue on, you're going to create components for this and this separately. But I'm not going to do it in this video again, OK? So in the app folder, you see this app component HTML, right? You can remove all these comments, OK? It has a lot of comments here. The style sheet starts from line 2 all the way to almost 295. OK, so I'm going to go down. Yeah, so all these stuff will be removed eventually. But I do want to show you. So yeah, anyway. So the toolbar, this one here, this is the toolbar on the very top and the banner at the top. So you can just basically, let's see how big this is. Yeah, this is the whole thing from 298.318, right? So select that, comment it out, OK? Control forward slash will comment it out.  And you will see that now the blue bar is now been removed. OK, so there we go. And then from here on, you just follow the rest of the video to build the components and you should be good to go. OK, if you have any questions again, please do let me know. Thank you.
