1 00:00:00,834 --> 00:00:03,442 Welcome back to "The Prayer Link". And there is no doubt 2 00:00:03,442 --> 00:00:07,358 that we are heading into darker times, and some might even say 3 00:00:07,358 --> 00:00:09,350 that we're heading into the last days. 4 00:00:09,350 --> 00:00:13,138 Some do say, but one man is crying out for the church to wake up 5 00:00:13,138 --> 00:00:16,701 and become light in the darkness. And he is kickstarting believers 6 00:00:16,701 --> 00:00:19,706 to heal the sick, preach the gospel, cast out demons 7 00:00:19,706 --> 00:00:22,253 and be led by the Holy Spirit. Take a look. 8 00:00:22,313 --> 00:00:24,816 What does it mean that the tomb is empty? 9 00:00:25,526 --> 00:00:26,935 It means that He's alive. 10 00:00:26,935 --> 00:00:30,003 So, if He's alive, than we can have a relationship? 11 00:00:30,053 --> 00:00:31,087 Yeah. 12 00:00:31,167 --> 00:00:34,059 Lungs be restored again. Grow in the name of Jesus Christ. 13 00:00:34,109 --> 00:00:36,923 - Can you... (inhale)? - Oh, Allah! 14 00:00:38,453 --> 00:00:41,259 Ladies and gentlemen, this is Mambo No. 5. 15 00:00:41,259 --> 00:00:44,813 I knew that me, my family and everyone around me 16 00:00:44,813 --> 00:00:49,058 needed to be baptized, needed to draw closer to Jesus. 17 00:00:54,198 --> 00:00:56,537 The Last Reformation The Life 18 00:00:56,997 --> 00:00:59,603 And Torben Sondergaard produced "The Last Reformation" 19 00:00:59,603 --> 00:01:02,384 and it started a global movement by the same name 20 00:01:02,384 --> 00:01:05,471 and he joins us to share more. Torben, welcome to the "Prayer Link". 21 00:01:05,471 --> 00:01:06,180 Thank you! 22 00:01:06,180 --> 00:01:11,059 "The Last Reformation - The Life" is a sequel to your first movie. Right? 23 00:01:11,059 --> 00:01:12,381 Tell us about it. 24 00:01:12,381 --> 00:01:15,899 First, the reason we call it "The Last Reformation" is because... 25 00:01:16,239 --> 00:01:20,936 The first reformation was with Martin Luther. We saw that from Germany. 26 00:01:20,936 --> 00:01:26,639 But Martin Luther did not reform the Catholic Church back to the Book of Acts. 27 00:01:26,639 --> 00:01:30,733 We saw few changes here and there, but where is the life? 28 00:01:30,733 --> 00:01:33,434 Where is the power of God? Where is being led by the Holy Spirit? 29 00:01:33,434 --> 00:01:35,304 Where is the healing? Where is the casting out demons? 30 00:01:35,304 --> 00:01:38,756 Where is the preaching? Where is the baptism with full immersion? 31 00:01:38,756 --> 00:01:41,564 All of this, Martin Luther did not reform. 32 00:01:41,564 --> 00:01:45,311 And we need a new reformation, and hopefully, it's the last one 33 00:01:45,311 --> 00:01:48,371 before Jesus comes back, because He's coming back soon. 34 00:01:48,671 --> 00:01:53,539 And there is just a longing to come back to the real life we read about in the Bible. 35 00:01:53,809 --> 00:01:57,890 Torben, you said this has kickstarted a global movement. Tell us about that. 36 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,695 God took us on a journey, me and my wife, many years ago, and we are still 37 00:02:02,695 --> 00:02:07,276 on a journey today. But on that journey we started to ask a lot of questions. 38 00:02:07,276 --> 00:02:09,902 Why do we do the church the way we do it? 39 00:02:09,902 --> 00:02:13,047 Like, I've been working as an evangelist, I've done church plant, 40 00:02:13,047 --> 00:02:18,552 but out in that desert, we looked back at our life and looked at the church from outside 41 00:02:18,552 --> 00:02:23,537 and then we had the Bible. And we looked at the early church, the Book of Acts, 42 00:02:23,537 --> 00:02:27,343 how they were living, and I: "Something is wrong." 43 00:02:27,343 --> 00:02:32,887 Like, I do ministry, I preach, but I didn't see this life. 44 00:02:33,097 --> 00:02:36,410 At one time in our life we came to a point we lost everything 45 00:02:36,410 --> 00:02:38,945 and we came to that point: We have nothing more to lose. 46 00:02:38,945 --> 00:02:42,697 Let's just say it as it is. Let's just give it out. 47 00:02:42,697 --> 00:02:47,209 And then we found out that when you start to say it, it just... 48 00:02:47,769 --> 00:02:50,196 ...did something in people's hearts. And many people, actually, 49 00:02:50,196 --> 00:02:55,161 came to me and said: Torben, you just put words on what we already had on our hearts. 50 00:02:55,161 --> 00:02:57,326 Something is wrong, something is happening right now. 51 00:02:57,326 --> 00:03:00,447 And it started with a book I wrote called "The Last Reformation" 52 00:03:00,447 --> 00:03:03,511 and suddenly became a movement there's all over the world, 53 00:03:03,511 --> 00:03:05,779 and now we see hundreds of thousands people healed, 54 00:03:05,779 --> 00:03:07,579 we see ten thousands of people come to faith. 55 00:03:07,579 --> 00:03:09,904 And what is beautiful is - 56 00:03:09,904 --> 00:03:13,224 it's for every believer. And I think that is the main thing. 57 00:03:13,224 --> 00:03:17,769 We have lost, first, the gospel, we have lost the life, 58 00:03:17,769 --> 00:03:21,500 we have lost the focus on discipleship and the understanding that God 59 00:03:21,500 --> 00:03:24,870 wants to use every believer. You don't have to be ordained, 60 00:03:24,870 --> 00:03:27,750 you don't have to be on a seminary and the Bible school. 61 00:03:27,750 --> 00:03:32,001 You can learn, learn through discipleship to preach the gospel. 62 00:03:32,001 --> 00:03:35,380 You can learn through discipleship to heal the sick, to cast out demons. 63 00:03:35,380 --> 00:03:38,018 And it doesn't have to happen in a platform in a church. 64 00:03:38,018 --> 00:03:41,392 It can happen in a living room, it can happen all over. 65 00:03:41,392 --> 00:03:44,884 I was in Paris a year ago. We were standing outside the Eiffel Tower. 66 00:03:44,884 --> 00:03:47,959 And a girl came and we started to preach the gospel 67 00:03:47,959 --> 00:03:51,405 and a demon manifested. She fell down, she got set free from a demon, 68 00:03:51,405 --> 00:03:55,127 outside the Eiffel Tower, with a group of 300-400 people who came 69 00:03:55,127 --> 00:03:56,345 and were standing around... 70 00:03:56,345 --> 00:03:57,884 You're just standing outside the Eiffel Tower public? 71 00:03:57,884 --> 00:04:02,624 Public. When we saw the deliverance public there, 72 00:04:02,894 --> 00:04:06,877 I was like... But at the same time, 73 00:04:06,877 --> 00:04:12,583 if you just take the Bible, it happened out there, it happened among the people. 74 00:04:12,583 --> 00:04:15,551 They never took it inside the room and said: 75 00:04:15,551 --> 00:04:19,453 Now deliverance has to be ten hours of counseling, in a room. 76 00:04:19,453 --> 00:04:23,537 No, we counsel when it needs counseling, but when we need to cast out demons - 77 00:04:23,537 --> 00:04:29,808 we cast out demons. I think that have been lost. And it's happening now. 78 00:04:30,068 --> 00:04:35,823 So, tell me this, Torben. You are facing some persecution in Denmark. 79 00:04:35,823 --> 00:04:38,326 Tell us what's been happening? 80 00:04:39,706 --> 00:04:43,665 I love Jesus and we have looked a lot about the discipleship 81 00:04:43,665 --> 00:04:46,472 and Jesus have sent us to go out, preach the gospel, heal the sick, 82 00:04:46,472 --> 00:04:48,385 cast out demons, all of that. - Right. 83 00:04:48,385 --> 00:04:50,864 Together with that comes the persecution. 84 00:04:51,584 --> 00:04:54,384 Jesus said: They will whip you in their synagogues. 85 00:04:54,384 --> 00:04:58,453 That is the religious people who are persecuting us. We have done that. 86 00:04:58,453 --> 00:05:02,273 The next thing He said is that they will put us in front of counselors in court cases. 87 00:05:02,493 --> 00:05:07,365 We haven't experienced that, but it's been crazy in Denmark, so... 88 00:05:07,365 --> 00:05:11,363 In the beginning of January we experienced a massive persecution. 89 00:05:11,623 --> 00:05:16,444 And it, actually, ended up that we are seeking asylum in America now. 90 00:05:17,494 --> 00:05:22,669 The 24th of January me and my family packed eight suitcases 91 00:05:22,669 --> 00:05:26,324 and we left Denmark. They have now put a law in Denmark. 92 00:05:26,324 --> 00:05:28,356 They talked about me in the Danish government. 93 00:05:28,356 --> 00:05:31,880 They've put a law. By law it's illegal to cast out demons in front of kids. 94 00:05:32,460 --> 00:05:35,950 Unbelievable! Oh wow! In front of kids? 95 00:05:35,950 --> 00:05:39,203 Yeah, in front of kids or handicap. Just in front of and do it, 96 00:05:39,203 --> 00:05:42,254 plus, they adopted the mental violence law... 97 00:05:42,254 --> 00:05:44,557 It's just so crazy because... 98 00:05:44,557 --> 00:05:47,732 It's what Jesus said to do? It's in the Bible. 99 00:05:47,732 --> 00:05:49,696 Yeah, it is. And then they have the mental violence law, 100 00:05:49,696 --> 00:05:52,981 and how do you define the mental violence. Physical violence you know 101 00:05:52,981 --> 00:05:56,132 if you hit somebody. Mental violence, they are actually saying in the Danish law 102 00:05:56,132 --> 00:06:01,079 that if you ground kids on a longer period that could be mental violence. 103 00:06:01,079 --> 00:06:02,002 Wow! 104 00:06:02,002 --> 00:06:04,860 If you have kids who think they are homosexual and you, as parents, go... 105 00:06:04,860 --> 00:06:08,637 That could be mental violence. But the only thing they put in the law 106 00:06:08,637 --> 00:06:11,796 to define it - it was casting demons out. - Wow! 107 00:06:11,796 --> 00:06:14,198 - But does it look you'll be able to come here? - It's amazing! 108 00:06:14,648 --> 00:06:16,965 - We don't know yet. - We're gonna pray for him. 109 00:06:17,595 --> 00:06:22,668 I would say, I'm smiling, I'm excited about what God is doing, 110 00:06:22,668 --> 00:06:25,940 but the last half of the year have been the most crazy experience, like... 111 00:06:25,940 --> 00:06:29,131 I've always been proud of being Danish, have a Danish passport. 112 00:06:29,131 --> 00:06:30,848 We've traveled to 30 countries... 113 00:06:30,848 --> 00:06:32,416 Sure. You don't wanna leave your country. 114 00:06:32,416 --> 00:06:34,453 No. And I never imagined that this could happen. 115 00:06:34,453 --> 00:06:39,183 And I think also, my message to America is that, if you never imagined it could happen, 116 00:06:39,593 --> 00:06:43,693 if nothing is changing now, what I've experienced in Denmark, 117 00:06:43,693 --> 00:06:46,966 with changing of laws and leaving the country, and persecution, 118 00:06:46,966 --> 00:06:49,563 it's also going to happen in America, if nothing is changing. 119 00:06:49,563 --> 00:06:51,947 I wish we have more time, but we will be praying 120 00:06:51,947 --> 00:06:53,718 and our viewers will be praying for you as well. 121 00:06:53,718 --> 00:06:56,889 Definitely praying for Torben. That's right. Thanks so much...
