WE HAVE SOME QUESTION.
Kristi: KEN SAYS, "I
HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT THE
LAW OF UNITY.
I UNDERSTAND THAT WE HAVE TO
BE TOGETHER, BUT IN MY
OFFICE THERE IS SOMEONE WHO
IS POISONING THE CLIMATE.
SHE IS CONSTANTLY NEGATIVE,
MANIPULATIVE, AND SPREADS
MALICIOUS RUMORS ABOUT
PEOPLE.
SHE HAS CURRIED FAVOR WITH
HER MANAGERS BECAUSE SHE
DOES BRING IN SOME MONEY FOR
THE COMPANY.
AND I WANT TO ADHERE TO THE
LAW OF UNITY.
HOW DO I APPROACH THIS
SITUATION?"
Pat: THE BIBLE SAYS
DRIVE OUT A SCOFFER AND
STRIFE WILL CEASE.
YOU ARE NOT IN THE POSITION
TO DRIVE OUT ANYBODY, BUT I
DO BELIEVE YOU OWE IT TO
YOUR COMPANY TO GO TO THE
BOSSES, OR THE BOSS, AND SAY
I'VE GOT A PROBLEM.
I WANT THIS COMPANY TO
SUCCEED, BUT WE DON'T HAVE
UNITY IN THE RANKS.
AND BECAUSE THIS PERSON IS
VERY DI DIVISIVE, I WANT TO
BRING IT TO YOUR ATTENTION.
CAN YOU HELP ME BECAUSE I
WANT US ALL TO SUCCEED
TOGETHER.
IF THAT PERSON REJECTS YOU,
THE COMPANY IS GOING TO
SUFFER FOR IT.
SOONER OR LATER IT WILL
SUFFER.
IF YOU DON'T HAVE UNITY, IT
WON'T SUCCEED.
THE TIME MAY COME FOR YOU TO
SAY, WELL, IT IS TIME FOR ME
TO JUMP SHIP.
I DON'T KNOW WHETHER YOU'RE
AT THAT POINT YET.
BUT I DO THINK A FRANK
DISCUSSION -- MAYBE -- MAYBE
THIS WOMAN DOESN'T REALIZE
WHAT SHE IS DOING.
MAYBE THIS WOMAN BY NATURE
IS NEGATIVE.
I HATE TO BE AROUND PEOPLE
WHO ARE NEGATIVE.
IT IS CORROSIVE, LIKE ACID.
Kristi: I'M WITH YOU.
NUMBER TWO, DEAN SAYS, "IN
THE LAW OF UNITY, YOU QUOTE
JESUS AS SAYING IF TWO OF
YOU AGREE ON ANYTHING, THEY
SHALL ASK AND IT SHALL BE
DONE.
RECENTLY THERE WAS A MAN IN
OUR CHURCH WHO WAS SICK AND
WE ALL PRAYED FOR HIM, BUT
HE DIDN'T GET BETTER.
HOW CAN THIS BE?
WE WERE ALL IN AGREEMENT?"
Pat: IF YOU LOOK AT THE
BIBLE, AND YOU LOOK AT
PETER, AND THE CHURCH PRAYED
FOR HIM, AND, GUESS WHAT,
GOD SENT AN ANGEL, AND PETER
CAME OUT OF JAIL AND WAS
KNOCKING AT THE DOOR.
AND IT WAS AMAZING.
THEY PRAYED.
YOU SAY YOUR CHURCH PRAYED.
BUT DID THEY SAY OH, GOD
HEAL OLD CHARLIE, AND GO ON
THEIR BUSINESS.
OR WERE THEY REALLY INTO IT
AND WERE THEIR HEARTS REALLY
COMMIKNIT TOGETHER.
I DON'T KNOW THE INTENSITY
TOGETHER.
BUT I KNOW THAT PEOPLE IN
UNITY, IF THEY PRAY
STRETCHED OUTEDLY, THEY WILL
HEAL.
Kristi: "I WORRY MY
HUSBAND IS VIOLATING THAT
BECAUSE HE IS WATCHING A LOT
OF 24-HOUR CABLE.
I TELL HIM HE SHOULD NOT BE
CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD AND
HE SHOULD WATCH SOMETHING
MORE UPLIFTING.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
THIS IS CAUSING A RIFT IN
OUR MARRIAGE."
Pat: I THINK YOU
MISREAD THAT.
CONFORMITY -- IT'S DON'T BE
CONFORMED TO THIS WORLD.
THE WORLD THAT IS OUT THERE,
WHICH MEANS IT IS SEXUAL AND
MATERIALISTIC.
MERELY BEING INFORMED IS
DIFFERENT.
I BELIEVE YOU CAN GET
OBSESSED ON THOSE THINGS.
AFTER A WHILE, IT DRIVES YOU
CRAZY.
THERE IS ONLY SO MUCH OF
O'REILLY AND HANATY AND
THOSE OTHER PEOPLE THAT YOU
CAN TAKE BEFORE YOU SAY, I
HAVE TO HAVE A BREAK.
IT IS NOT THAT THEY ARE NOT
NICE PEOPLE, BUT THERE IS
JUST SO MUCH.
I THINK AFTER A WHILE, HE
NEEDS A BREAK IN HIS MIND.
BUT HE ISN'T GOING TO HELL
ON ACCOUNT OF WATCHING FOX
NEWS OR MSNBC OR ANY OF
THESE OTHER THINGS.
THAT IS NOT THE SAME THING
AS BEING CONFORMED TO THE
WORLD.
BEING CONFORMED IS YOU'RE
OUT WITH A BUNCH OF
DRINKERS, AND YOU DRINK WITH
THEM.
THAT IS NOT WHAT HE IS
DOING.
HE JUST WANTS TO BE
INFORMED.
THAT IS DIFFERENT.
Kristi: ETHEL SAYS, "IS
THERE A SCRIPTURE THAT TELLS
US EACH OF US HAVE AN ANGEL
ASSIGNED TO US?"
Pat: NO, IT IS NOT.
WE MISUNDERSTOOD THAT.
IT SAYS THEY HAVE BEEN SENT
TO TAKE CARE OF THE HEIRS OF
SALVATION.
IT DOESN'T SAY EACH ONE OF
US HAS A GUARDIAN ANGEL.
THAT IS A LATER ACCRETION OR
WHATEVER.
IT WOULD BE NICE TO THINK WE
HAVE ONE, BUT THE BIBLE
DOESN'T TELL US THAT.
Kristi: I BELIEVE I
HAVE A WHOLE BAND OF ANGELS
AROUND ME.
I DON'T KNOW IF IT IS TRUE.
Pat: PEOPLE HERE HAVE
SEEN THEM.
WE ASKED GOD TO SEND THE
ANGELS, AND I BELIEVE THAT
ANGELIC MESSENGERS ARE THERE
TO LOOK AFTER THE HEIRS OF
SALVATION.
BUT IT DOESN'T SAY EACH ONE
OF US HAS OUR OWN ANGEL.
Kristi: I THINK THERE
IS TIME FOR ONE LAST
QUESTION.
SHE SAYS, "THE BOOK OF
MATTHEW TELLS US TO SEEK THE
KINGDOM OF GOD FIRST.
I DESIRE TO DO THAT, BUT HOW
DO I SPECIFICALLY DO THAT IN
ALL OF THE AREAS OF MY
LIFE?"
Pat: JESUS SAID THAT IN
THE CONTEXT OF WHAT DON'T BE
CONCERNED WHAT YOU SHOULD
EAT, WHAT YOU SHOULD WEAR,
OR WHERE YOU SHOULD LIVE.
THIS IS THE THING THAT THE
GENTILES SEEK, BUT FOR YOU,
YOU SEEK THE KINGDOM.
WHICH MEANS PUT THE EMPHASIS
OF YOUR LIFE IN SEEKING THE
KINGDOM OF GOD, AND ALL OF
THIS MATERIAL STUFF WILL BE
ADDED TO YOU.
BUT IT DOESN'T SAY IN
EVERYTHING ASPECT OF YOUR
LIFE BE SEEKING.
JESUS SAID LOVE THE LORD
YOUR GOD WITH ALL OF YOUR
HEART, YOUR SOUL, AND YOUR
MIND.
THAT IS LOVING GOD.
BUT SEEKING THE LORD HAS TO
DO WITH THE FOCUS OF YOUR
ATTENTION.
WHAT HE SAYS IS DON'T FOCUS
ON MATERIAL POSSESSIONS AND
WHAT IT TAKES TO KEEP LIFE
GOING.
BUT FOCUS ON GOD.
AND HE'LL GIVE YOU THESE
OTHER THINGS.
THAT'S WHAT IT MEANS.
Kristi: BEAUTIFUL.
GOOD DEAL.
FANTASTIC.
Pat: THANK YOU, THANK
YOU, THANK YOU.
Kristi: IF YOU HAVE
MORE QUESTIONS FOR PAT ABOUT
THE LAW OF UNITY, REMEMBER

QUESTIONS THERE, AND PAT
WOULD LOVE TO ANSWER THEM.
