Average Christians measure themselves by other Christians.
A normal Christian imitates Christ.
Radical Christianity is normal Christianity
This is the normal Christian life.
Let me introduce you to my friends
John and Pat. John and Pat have been saved for eight months.
They've been set free from drugs and alcohol, and let everyone know about it.
His life is just going to be radically changed.
You're going to pour so much love in his heart, Lord Father God.
John and Pat may be new Christians but if there's one thing they know,
it's that Jesus set them free,
and that He can do the same for others.
I've been addicted to alcohol for ages man
and Jesus has come into my life and taken it away in an instant.
Just took it completely away man.
Heavenly Father we thank You for Cliff today. We declare an open Heaven right now
in Jesus' name. We pray that whatever's holding him back
we command that it come out in the name of Jesus.
We believe Jesus will heal you.
No. It's not going to help me.
He'll help you. He helped me man - Drug addictions?
He broke my addictions. - I have no drug addictions, I have a...
Tell me because I've seen...
It's thirty eight mate. It's shattered.
No, I believe. I've really got faith that He will heal you.
Nah. - He can make...
I did all this. I've been through faith and everything and He did nothing for me.
Do you mind if I just quickly pray for you for one minute? - Go for it mate.
Ok, what's your name? - Mark.
Mark, and where's the pain? At the back, right here?
Lower back. - Lower back.
He's had a shattered back for many years that doctors couldn't fix.
We believe that now in the name of Jesus, through His stripes we are healed.
That healing power right now is going to come in the name of Jesus,
because You love him so much Heavenly Father.
How does that feel?
Can you move it? - I'll tell you later.
Yeah no worries man. We're just sharing the love around man.
This is what we do. - No worries mate.
Thank you very much. - Share the love.
Heavenly Father we thank You for Mark...
Before letting Mark go John wanted to pray for him again.
...in Jesus' name we pray, thank You for Mark and his beautiful family.
that You're going to pour out so much love, and that there's going to be healing.
I believe there's going to be healing and deliverance in the name of Jesus.
If I've got no pain I'll be at the park. - Ok, thank you very much.
And I'll show you. - Can you just try it one more time before you go?
We often see it just healed like that. Not joking.
How's it feeling?
Yeah, no...
Mark walked away with pain still in his back.
But instead of creating theologies as to why he wasn't healed,
John and Pat simply believe this.
We just believe it. We've got that faith to go out and pray for everyone.
And just because we love them so much, because God loved us so much that
He gave us His Son, so we love Him so much that we give ourselves for Him.
And instead of being discouraged as Mark walked off, these were John's words:
"I could feel something in his back while I was praying."
Then the extraordinary happened.
As he was walking off, he just came back and started screaming.
It feels different?
It does?
Yeah?
It feels loosened?
Hallelujah!
It's working! - Jesus loves you brother!
What the **** did you do? - I just prayed for you.
We've got faith.
It's Jesus. We don't do anything.
No. - It's all His glory. We just pray.
Go right down.
Go right down. You couldn't do that before? - Oh! Yeah!
Yeah brother! Hallelujah!
He loves you man. No more painkillers man.
Did you feel something when we were praying? - It works man!
When I was walking away I was tingling!
I can dance!
He loves you bro. - Jesus healed you. He loves you.
He loves you. -I can bend like this!
He couldn't do that before. - Oh really?
See, isn't that amazing?
I couldn't bend like this. Walk up the stairs like this.
Walk down here. It's cold. Ok, I've got to go for a walk.
Now look! Look! Yes! - Awesome!
Yeah brother!
Oh He loves you so much. - I'm serious man. I'm not ***********
I believe you man. - Mate! Yes!
It's completely gone. - He's been in that pain for years.
Nothing! - Nothing. He loves you.
Come on man! - He loves you man. He love you.
Jesus loves you. - That's Jesus man.That's Jesus.
It's not me. It's Heaven man.
I can disco dance again!
Awesome. Awesome, amazing. - That's amazing man.
Wow!
Hallelujah! - Yay Jesus!
You did it man. Where's the magic? - No, no. Jesus did it.
Jesus is the magic. - It's Jesus. We don't do anything.
And he's trying to give me all the praise as if it's me. I just told him "No, it's all Jesus."
No! Serious? This is... - Jesus. God.
He couldn't do that.
He was in that much pain for years and years. - God did this. He loves you.
Woah! Touch them!
Yes! Doctors can't do that!
No, God can! He can do anything.
The Gospel means the Good News, yet so many Christians hide it.
But when the reality of God breaks into someone's life,
the most normal thing is to share the Good News...
whether they've known God for eight months, or eight seconds.
I'm going to tell everyone.
This is awesome. This is serious, hey?
Wow.
I couldn't touch my toes.
I couldn't bend over from back pain.
This guy here prayed for me, and touched me.
Look now!
We just believe in Jesus man. We just believe He's out there to heal people,
and that it's all through His name. - I thought it was all ********
I thought, "You guys are scamming me".
Next minutes they're going to want money or something.
I'm walking down the road and I feel this tingling in my back,
I've got to go back!
Do you need prayer bro? Do you have pain in your body?
Nah man. I believe in Christ. - Awesome
Jesus just healed him man!
Jesus just healed him because we believe.
Seriously, I couldn't bend over - I was sore.
I'm not sore, mate. I'm ******* excellent.
It's Him. All the glory goes to Him, not me. - Tears coming in my eyes.
It's alright bro. It's alright. It's Jesus, man.
It's Jesus.
It's Jesus, man. He loves you.
He fixed my pain man.
He loves you bro. He loves you.
He loves you so much man. I love you so much too man.
My pain's gone.
Heavenly Father, we thank You for Mark today.
Lord Father God, You knitted him in his mother's womb.
God's not looking for golden vessels. He's not looking for silver vessels...
He's looking for yielded vessels.
I didn't believe.
And this guy prayed for me.
And I'm ******* healed. And I'm so happy. - Don't swear.
I've been in pain for years.
And there's nothing now.
Thank you Jesus. - Thank you Jesus.
Thank you that you've healed me. - Thank you that you've healed me.
Thank you that you're real. - Thank you that you're real.
Jesus is real! He's real! He healed me!
God, come into my heart. - God, come into my heart.
I give you my life. - I give you my life.
It's yours. - It's yours.
Holy Spirit come live in here. - Holy Spirit come live in here.
And here, and here! - From this day, and forever, Amen.
From this day, and forever, Amen.
Come on man! Come here bro. - Thank you Jesus, Holy Spirit, in Jesus' name.
He's our Father. He loves us so much. - He's my Father.
Now this is the amazing work of Jesus Christ.
This is everyday Christian living - that we pour out our love.
Our job here on Earth is to love everyone the same way Jesus did.
Now everyone watching this video right now, "Be imitators of Christ".
It's now been three and a half weeks since we prayed for Mark.
We contacted him yesterday and he's being completely pain free ever since.
He wants to connect with us and we're really excited.
As you can see by John and Pat's life, this is not some special lifestyle for anointed ministers
but it's for every Christian.
I believe this video will be a catalyst to see many lives change.
So how can you get involved? First of all, share this video.
I believe it's extremely important for people to see what God is doing.
And if you have any testimonies from your life post them on your wall
with the hashtag #normalchristianlife
We're going to have more episodes out weekly, and we can't wait to hear your testimonies.
Next Time
I've got me and my son here Levi.
And we heard some really cool words of knowledge for the guys over on the job site next door.
I felt like one guy's got carpal tunnel.
Also like a smashed knee from years and years ago, like a motor accident.
So we're going to go and deliver those words to these guys.
It's going to be amazing.
I feel like one of you guys actually has carpal tunnel.
I felt like one of you guys actually had a motorbike accident, and busted your knee.
