He absolutely surrendered, he had a personal Calvary, he went all through with God, after these years of being a Christian, but not deep, the next day, he looked at his tobacco lands, and he got on the tractors, and he plowed the tobacco in the ground, and he planted vegetables, well, that's tobacco land, the valley rose up in protest, against what he's doing, you don't do vegetables, this is tobacco, there was virtually almost a violent protest, rising up against him, for what he was daring to do in that valley, within a few years, he so prospered, that 90 of that valley, plowed their tobacco, into the ground, and planted vegetables, do you honestly think God, does not honor them, that honor him, no compromise, no matter what the devil says, no matter what people who have business minds, people who have their pulse on the economy, say, no matter what anyone says, God honors them that honor him, beloved, God honors them, that beloved him, that honor him, my brother, Dudley, he lives in Australia now, he used to live in America, my brother Dudley, when he was saved, about 38 years ago now, he was really something, for a young fellow, just over 20, he was the South African champion, of his sport, he had sports clubs across the land, he had his own business, which was just flourishing, booming, he really was staggering, admired by multitudes, who would come to all these clubs, where he would train them, and have people training them, he was asked to represent his country, when his country was sanctioned from the world, sport wise, he was so good, they couldn't do without him taking part, he had to come, no one in the world was this good, but what was the sport, well that was the beginning days of what took over in the world of young people, of sport, karate, an eastern fighting system, mainly self -defense, but oh well, anyway, he got mightily saved, and the next day, he said, I must close these clubs down now, karate is of the devil, he said, I don't care what anybody says, you speak to anyone who goes a little bit deep, this meditating, it's not just for concentration, it's for a power, and it's not God, with your senses, it's not of God, it's of the devil, and it's dangerous, and I'm stopping, he wouldn't go to represent his land, it was a shock, he closed all the clubs down, he said, I'm not making any money from this devilish thing anymore, because all these people flocked in their throngs to train under something of his supervision in these clubs, oh how many religious people opposed him, he's gone mad, nothing wrong in this, it's just good for the young people, you know, oh how many confessing, professing Christians stood up against him, gone off the rails, go too far here, oh the criticism, the barrage of criticism that rode up against him, the little encouragement he got was unbelievable, from Christians, evangelical Christians, his business, flourishing, yes, for a young man, he stands up now, saved, within a week, he tells everybody, this business does not work on Sunday, I make no money from this business on Sunday, it's God's day, and I'm not desecrating God's day, the Lord's day, well, then the criticism rose up, oh my, you're going to lose the business, his biggest dealers, the ones who gave him the most money with their contracts, the one man marched in when I was sitting there, shouting, he was like beside himself, he said, because you have become a religious fanatic, it doesn't mean the whole world has come to a standstill, Dudley, he said, I give you my business, my contracts, many other of them, we all speak the same language, we're all speaking about it, we're all shocked, if there's a breakdown, if there's a deadline to meet by Sunday, if you have our contracts, you work on Sunday, you will work on Sunday, or you lose everything, I will take my business, and I know everybody else is talking, we're getting away from you, you're going to lose everything, you've gone overboard, young man, he shouted at my brother, and I trembled at the way a man could speak to another man, because of his love for God, what he had done, my brother stood up, and he was trembling, I noticed that, he was deceived, he was young, and I noticed his little lips were curling, and I looked at him and thought, what do you do now with your God, are you going to lose everything, Dudley, a little tear came down his face, and he said, sir, I don't care if I lose your business, I don't care if I lose this business, but I will not desecrate the Lord's day, I love God too much, unless it is a matter of life or death, I will never again allow anyone in this business to work, even if I lose this business, well, what happened, well, they might have found somebody that wouldn't work on a Sunday, but they also found somebody that's a very great rarity in the world, in the business world, they found someone that they knew wouldn't overcharge them, wouldn't do superficial work or undermine jobs, wouldn't do any cheating on any level, and what things he used in all the machinery, there wouldn't be anything questionable about, well, instead of losing their business, his business just grew, and grew, and grew, and grew, he had to just take on workers upon workers, and open up next door, and next, hide the next building, it just went to such a state, in the end, God laid his hand on him to become a preacher, and on me, and I remember my brother saying, thank God I'm getting out of all of this, it's too much, he couldn't handle it, oh, God honors them that honor him, beloved, no matter what the devil says, through your biggest customer, threatening, no matter what the devil says through religious leaders, warning, you're going too far, this isn't God, God honors them that honor him, this book says, and I believe it, in Pretoria, the capital of South Africa, I have come to love a young couple, who have found Christ a few years ago, and they have businesses in our country, he has a remarkable mind for the business world, this young fellow, he goes to China, to get all the practical work done, all the labor, because it's one third of what it'll cost them to do in South Africa, labor and material, including all the costs of bringing it back, no wonder China's just, I mean, they hardly make it, they hardly make anything with the labor, there's hardly anything of taxes, no one, what can you do, well, let's not go into politics now, but it's China's time, isn't it, something we've got to pray about, because we're all going to live in it, anyway, this young couple now, flourishing, outlets in the malls of clothing, all levels of clothing, that he designs, gets the material, gets made in mass, brings back, and they're just a good quality, and so, they sit with me now, say, for just three, four years now, when I visited, and they said, we have a crisis, what about Sunday, South Africa that used to fear God, no one worked on Sunday, apart from police, ambulances, and doctors, I remember there was a boy, Albert, Melanie, our country once feared God, Sunday was a day when you didn't work, but today, we're so far from God, in the generation I've lived, but Sunday's the day, they push to make money, for selling, for shopping, the malls, everything, the entertainment in the mall, everything, just this is the day, everybody now, that once God feared in South Africa, desecrates God's day, Charles Finney said, you can tell the spiritual state of a land, by what happens on the Lord's day, in that land, Finney said, the first thing of any significance, that he noticed a change in America, when God swept through this land, the first thing he noticed, was the way the land started to revere God's day, work stopped, across America, it became a holy day, he said, you can feel the pulse of a land, by just looking, what happens across America, on Sunday, you know, how much that land fears God, or serves God, Finney said, it's staggering, they said to me, God is speaking to us, but what are we going to do, Sunday's the day, and if we stop, and close our doors on these malls, all over, on a Sunday, they'll throw us out, because one outlet, somehow, supports the next one, because people come to you, but the others get affected, when people see other needs, so it's going to stop, and close a lot of business, if we close our doors, it's going to affect everybody, we'll be thrown out, what must we do, so I looked at them, and I said, do what your conscience tells you, honor God, well they did, and oh, did they tremble for a while, they were thrown out of some of the biggest, most beautiful malls, just thrown out, get out, but they made their way into other malls, that allowed them, and other outlets, where suddenly there were people, that they didn't realize, would take a great percentage of their ware, and sell in a different way, as it became known, that this was available at such a price, and they put on their shop doors, in every mall, we are born again Christians, we love Jesus Christ, with every faculty of our being, and for this reason, these doors are closed, on Sundays, that we may honor God's day, the Lord's day, and not desecrate it, that is on their doors, as the people flock past, to get their shopping done, what happened, brother, sister, this might be hard for you to comprehend, they so prospered, they didn't double, they trebled the first year, they trebled up the second year, it just went on, and on, until they couldn't survive, with all the work, how often, Jenny will be my witness, on the phone, they phone and say, we can't survive, too much, God honors them, that honor Him, sir, God honors them, that honor Him, don't doubt it now, oh, to be honored by God, don't compromise, when it comes to any issue, concerning your handling of money, whether it's on the Sabbath, the Lord's day, New Testament wise, whether it's undermining the poor, you won't be judged how much money you made, sir, you'll be judged how you made it, how you got it, don't doubt that now, don't, in any issue, compromise, when it comes to your handling the smallest penny, in your life, once you name the name of Jesus, or you lose a sensitive walk with God, don't lose that, it's not worth it, I remember, when I was a young preacher, in South Africa, my district superintendent, came to me in a bit of a fluster, and he said, Brother Keith, I'm in troubles, we have this conference, this convention, and we've got to leave early in the morning, before the sun comes, and I didn't get certain things, I want you to get to the center of Pretoria, before the shops close, and I want you to get these things in this shop, the only shop that sells these things, and he said, I can't do that, don't you come back here and tell me you didn't make it, it's late, but if you rush, you'll get there in time, don't you even think of coming back if you didn't get it, well, that's tempting to break the speed limit, isn't it, when your boss says things like that, I didn't break the speed limit, but I made sure I didn't waste any time, I just made it, I got into the center of town, Trafficow and all, and I think there was about 15 minutes before the shop doors closed, it was really the end now, in the city, and I got to this shop, this particular shop, and I got out the car, and I felt for money, loose change, because the parking meter, you've got to pay to park in the center of town, well, I didn't have the right change, so I thought, oh my, so I saw a man standing in one of the shops next to the shop where I had to go in and get these things, in another shop, another outlet in the center of town, he was standing at the end of the day, not very busy obviously, he was the owner of the shop, he was a Greek man, so I went up to him and I said, sir, I need parking money, because there's still time, we have to still pay, it's not 5 o 'clock yet, he said, no, don't worry man, the police don't come here this time of the day, he says, you, you just go, go do your thing, I said, no, I need the money, I'll get small change, I've got, I'll give it back to you, but as you need to put in, I want to, he says, I won't let you, don't be stupid, he said, I was very young I suppose, he says, now you go do your work, I'll watch you, if a policeman comes, I'll go and put the money in fast, you won't get a fine, how do you argue with this sort of man, so I went in and did all the work, got all the stuff, and I asked them for change, and I came out, put all the stuff in the car, and then I got out the car again, and I took the money, I got the small change, now the time had passed, you don't have to pay anymore by the way, but I put in, because I had used time, well, I get in the car again, and I'm starting, suddenly there's a bang on the window, this fellow was angry by the way, I put the window down, he says, are you mad, so I thought I was in trouble, what's wrong with you, what do you put money in for, I watched for you, I looked for you, there's no policeman in sight, the time is gone, you come here, you still put money in, what's wrong with you, so I put the car in, and I get out, and I look at him, and I said, I put it in, because I'm a Christian, I belong to God, I love God, he says, but I'm a Christian too, I said, no you're not, I said, sir, the difference between your Christianity and mine, is you will only do what you have to do, if you're going to get caught, or seen doing the wrong thing, I do what is right if no one is watching on earth, or if everyone's watching me, because God's watching me, that's what's real, he's the same whether a crowd is watching and witnessing whether he's going to fail or compromise on any issue, he's the same whether no one's watching, because whatever he does, he does out of love for Jesus Christ, and sensitivity toward the God who tells him to obey the law of the land, and to have a clear conscience concerning the smallest issues, I said, you're not a Christian, you're going straight to hell, if you don't repent, and come to Christ, and live before God, not me, one of the great missionary ladies of our country, by the by, you want women not to serve God, I looked at one man in your country who said something about women serving God across Africa, I said, sir, you give the command to get every woman missionary off the field, two -thirds of the mission force in the world is gone, be careful, I don't believe in domination of women going on against God's words, but be careful, in Africa, most souls who've come to Christ came through women who died in sickness, because no man would go to the Congo where you die, and die sick, so God had to get little ladies, who'd go down to the huts, and be riddled with disease, but bring them to Christ, but one of the great lady missionaries of our continent, whose name is revered across Africa, by the missions upon missions that were founded because of her zeal, and the fruit of her life, as she went to the souls, Helena Garrett, I heard an astounding incident in her life, she took a penny stamp from postage from the source where she was in a desperate situation, and somehow she overlooked, and when she remembered, that lady was in such a state to go to such extremities to get back to that situation before she could put, and someone who had seen all that it cost her to get back and put that penny in place, said to her, was that necessary?
