"Giving Glory"
"Giving Glory" is a special interview by Gary Amirault with Louis Abbott, (perhaps best known on the Tentmaker site as the author of "An Analytical Study of Words"). This in-depth study on various words that have been translated as: "eternal," "everlasting," "judgment," "Hell" etc, has proved to be an invaluable study tool for many. In this special interview, you will hear of Bro. Abbott's testimony--how, as a young pastor he was challenged by one of his members to study universal reconciliation. Intending to disprove the doctrine, Louis instead became convinced that it was true. After eventually leaving his pastorate, he gave much of his life to studying Greek and Hebrew; ranging from ancient manuscripts to modern scholarship. Louis, who studied the Greek New Testament for 50 years, spent his lifetime gathering this treasure-trove of information. "There is probably no one who has studied the word 'aion' as much as Louis Abbott" declares Gary Amirault. It is our belief that after watching this video, the viewer, like Mr. Abbott, will come to the conclusion, that Jesus will save the entire world though His work on the cross.

"The Purpose and Vision of God"
Jim Durkin preached to crowds of thousands and taught for many years with great passion regarding the fullness of revelation for the church on several key issues. There were tapes and books and newspaper articles that laid it out in detail. Young wanderers & sojourners from the hippie communes and college campuses were now hearing about the TRUE MEANING OF LIFE. They were not only being taught, they were being EQUIPPED. It was all there in black & white, in God's Word, but never had it become so dramatically clear and dynamic: You & I must line up our purpose with GOD'S PURPOSE and to see truth the way GOD envisioned truth. To do HIS will! To submit to HIS way! To live and walk with Him in His victorious God-ordained plan!
Many powerful teachings were expounded on, throughout cities and congregations coast to coast, and out under night skies and jam-packed living-rooms and auditoriums. THE BOLD CONFESSION .... TRAINING YOUR SOUL ... and the profound insights into the full implementation of what EPHESIANS 4:11,12 are all about. This message speaks about DISCIPLESHIP -- Not the authoritarian, elitist, cultist dogmas of the 60s, but the glorious end-time manifestation of living as victorious and totally devoted, effective men & women of faith in service to the Lord ... as active Christians, evangelists, and missionaries. A family and a church with an agenda. A holy purpose.. . The PURPOSE and VISION of GOD! These teachings were so refreshing, so liberating, and so beloved that they can never fade from the hearts of a whole generation. Surely they are still being taught locally and also far away from where they were birthed at Lighthouse Ranch and Deliverance Temple in Eureka, CA. The foundational truths of Gospel Outreach move on with not only the remembrances of how a great teacher and father in the faith impacted untold thousands, but also with illumination to nations needing the Light of Jesus, and revelation, and deliverance, and needing to be EQUIPPED to minister boldly!
Hear the fervent spiritual challenges that set a generation ablaze! Youth who were lost in delusion, drugs and rebellion became devoted Christians, evangelists and missionaries across the nation and into distant countries. The messages of the early 70s, preached by Jim Durkin & so many others, are as relevant TODAY as in those prayerful and zealous nights and days when hearts were afire for God's holy will at all costs!

A Note From Al Jenke: I myself was raised and baptized at
under the mentorship of Jim Durkin. There I learned about God's
, and what it means to be a wholehearted follower, a DISCIPLE, of Jesus Christ. Unfortunately, GO does NOT embrace the truth of Universal Reconciliation. However, given the choice between sitting smugly on our hands -- content in the knowledge that "We are saved" -- or EXERCISING the Love & Service to God exhibited by GO -- I believe the latter is FAR preferable !! |

A Note From Pat Caspary, a missionary in Thailand, who distributed this message:
This message was originally a tape produced by Christian Equippers Int'l in So. Lake Tahoe, CA. D. Hulett, L. Speckert & F. Anfuso put together some of the messages of apostolic evangelist-pastor Jim Durkin, & added a few words by Em Baxter, plus music done by F. Anfuso & B. Libby. It was entitled "EXPLOITS", and it STILL stirs me to tears & stronger desire to press in to God, even though I hear it while on a jungle highway headed for remote, muddy, bamboo tribal villages in Thailand or Burma to preach the Gospel! My life was changed by the hand of God, & because of the impact of mentors in the faith who insisted we MUST GO as Jesus commanded us to, and bring His Light to a dark & lost world!
While preparing to send this out, I took several days to read the reflections of SO MANY who were taught, built up, equipped and sent out, by the apostolic Evangelist-Pastor, JIM DURKIN. Such numerous, moving, poignant memorable times spent in Ministry-Houses, Ranches, Festivals, Teams to other cities or other countries, and the bonding of lifelong friends as well as marriages that took place!!! Now there are grown children of those homes that are involved in Missions. Tens of thousands have been impacted! The world is more populated and more LOST and UNREACHED than one cares to admit. Those who have surely picked up the cross of Christ,
denied themselves to spend their all for the Gospel in the dark inner city or the remotest jungles, are not at all a huge number. Listen now again to the all, the cry, and recommit to carry the torch on into the next generation!
People are writing in from all over, wanting to again HEAR THIS CALL, THIS MESSAGE, which helped to draw, direct and drive them on into 30-35-40 years of Christian LIFE or dedication to full-time Gospel ministry. Several fervent Evangelists and Pastors are where they are today, because of the moment they knew they must GO INTO ALL THE WORLD! They are STILL in full-time Ministry because of the influence of these messages!
I know that all of us are loved of God, and that He is not calling us to religious works and duties, and in fact reprimands Martha for being so busy instead of spending needed time at the Lord's feet. Yet, behold the condition of the traditional, lethargic, denominational church-in-the-box which hasn't been at the prayer-altar, has no power, wears no armor, and is not surrendering all to His will and His Lordship. Budget spent on comforts & fancies. Evangelism & Missions seem extinct!! I'd like to challenge you today: Sure, you & I are just dirt. We can do nothing, except by His strength. The Missionary could not go if there were not those who stayed & sent what's needed. Other than these considerations, however, WHO will set the trumpet to your mouth? Who will carry His sword & be dedicated to reach the lost tribes?! Thank God for messages and messengers that raise high this torch! |
| Heartfelt gratitude goes out to all who taught any of us to follow the Lord. Also to those brethren who originally put together the "EXPLOITS" tape, plus a major salute also to those laborers who obeyed the call, and are leading others to GO INTO ALL THE WORLD and surrender all to the Lordship of Jesus & the preaching of His Word with all their hearts! |
