Who is preaching better?

00:00:26.890 --> 00:00:30.929
Hello, ladies and gentlemen. The noise you probably
00:00:30.929 --> 00:00:33.350
just heard on the other side was my daughter,
00:00:33.530 --> 00:00:36.990
Shekinah. She's joining us today in our lovely
00:00:36.990 --> 00:00:42.530
studio. Hello. Shekinah just got married two
00:00:42.530 --> 00:00:45.890
days after Thanksgiving. I'm glad it was two
00:00:45.890 --> 00:00:47.829
days after Thanksgiving because I wouldn't want
00:00:47.829 --> 00:00:52.469
them messing up my turkey or my Thanksgiving
00:00:52.469 --> 00:00:56.719
pumpkin pie. It wasn't the best call for me,
00:00:56.740 --> 00:00:59.780
though. I had to watch what I eat. We all fit
00:00:59.780 --> 00:01:02.420
in our dresses and suits. Oh, yeah. Stretchy
00:01:02.420 --> 00:01:04.099
pants. I'm telling you, stretchy pants all the
00:01:04.099 --> 00:01:09.680
way. Welcome to the Table Flippers podcast. I
00:01:09.680 --> 00:01:11.920
know we've been really hit and miss on this for
00:01:11.920 --> 00:01:13.739
a lot of reasons. We've been extremely busy.
00:01:13.799 --> 00:01:16.299
And this particular podcast, I've been wanting
00:01:16.299 --> 00:01:22.260
to do for over a week now. But we've been busy
00:01:22.260 --> 00:01:25.109
setting up. Our Christmas decorations, having
00:01:25.109 --> 00:01:27.230
events at the church, having events different
00:01:27.230 --> 00:01:30.730
places, running around. As I said just a moment
00:01:30.730 --> 00:01:33.530
ago, my daughter got married two days after Thanksgiving.
00:01:34.090 --> 00:01:38.569
And our son was out from Japan. Our other daughter
00:01:38.569 --> 00:01:42.870
was out from Chicago. So we have been very, very,
00:01:42.890 --> 00:01:46.689
very busy. And I could have just done a podcast,
00:01:46.989 --> 00:01:51.500
but... I needed to put a little bit of elbow
00:01:51.500 --> 00:01:55.099
grease into this just to get some quotes and
00:01:55.099 --> 00:01:58.739
some information for you because of what we're
00:01:58.739 --> 00:02:00.459
going to talk about. And yes, it's a little bit
00:02:00.459 --> 00:02:02.040
of a surprise, even though we're going to let
00:02:02.040 --> 00:02:05.180
you know in just a moment. But how's married
00:02:05.180 --> 00:02:08.740
life, Shekinah? Married life is fantastic. My
00:02:08.740 --> 00:02:11.060
husband is great. We have an awesome home together,
00:02:11.259 --> 00:02:13.639
awesome life, and I'm really excited, actually.
00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:16.479
I'm very happy. And she really means that because
00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:19.919
he's not here. He's at work right now. So she's
00:02:19.919 --> 00:02:24.080
not trying to impress him when being in the room.
00:02:24.300 --> 00:02:26.300
Yes, he's an incredible man. I love him very
00:02:26.300 --> 00:02:31.360
much. I like him too, for obvious reasons. He
00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:33.639
gave me a big screen TV, ladies and gentlemen.
00:02:33.860 --> 00:02:39.110
So anyways, I want to talk to you. But we are
00:02:39.110 --> 00:02:41.949
going to talk to, ladies and gentlemen, my devoted,
00:02:42.090 --> 00:02:45.430
wonderful fans. There's been a phenomenon going
00:02:45.430 --> 00:02:48.069
on in our country, and in the world, but in our
00:02:48.069 --> 00:02:52.810
country. And it's been so, on one hand, very,
00:02:52.930 --> 00:02:55.150
very, very good, and yet sad all at the same
00:02:55.150 --> 00:02:58.069
time. Yes, I know, I'm going to get to it, what
00:02:58.069 --> 00:03:01.550
it is. And that's basically that there are people
00:03:01.550 --> 00:03:05.150
that we wouldn't say are preachers of the gospel.
00:03:05.819 --> 00:03:07.979
some of them that we wouldn't even say are Christians,
00:03:08.259 --> 00:03:13.960
but are doing oftentimes a much better job at
00:03:13.960 --> 00:03:16.840
representing Christ, representing God, representing
00:03:16.840 --> 00:03:19.659
righteousness than many of our preachers in the
00:03:19.659 --> 00:03:24.400
pulpit. Now, as you remember, I think we did
00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:28.439
a podcast, Charlie Kirk was killed, and even
00:03:28.439 --> 00:03:31.439
leading up to that, it's always been my frustration
00:03:31.439 --> 00:03:35.379
that pastors and preachers, church leaders, sometimes
00:03:35.379 --> 00:03:39.539
are some of the most cowardly, wimpy people on
00:03:39.539 --> 00:03:41.939
the planet, too afraid to say or do anything,
00:03:42.139 --> 00:03:46.879
where others would stand in their place who aren't
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:50.560
even really Christians. And I know Shekinah and
00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:54.479
I and her mom and, you know, as a family, we
00:03:54.479 --> 00:03:56.599
just get so frustrated at this kind of stuff.
00:03:56.800 --> 00:03:58.879
So we're going to talk about that again a little
00:03:58.879 --> 00:04:01.780
bit more. But Shekinah, you remember during COVID
00:04:01.780 --> 00:04:06.960
how many even... those in the ministry that we
00:04:06.960 --> 00:04:10.280
considered friends that got very angry at me
00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:13.400
for even suggesting that we keep our doors open
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:16.300
and not cave to that tyranny. Yes, I bore witness
00:04:16.300 --> 00:04:19.600
to that. Yeah, so we lost, or I lost, we lost,
00:04:19.660 --> 00:04:23.620
I guess. You know, they're still acquaintances,
00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:25.439
and they're still people that I'd be cordial
00:04:25.439 --> 00:04:27.899
to if I bumped into them somewhere. But I can't
00:04:27.899 --> 00:04:30.819
call them friend because we have very little
00:04:30.819 --> 00:04:33.459
that really... that we can see eye to eye on
00:04:33.459 --> 00:04:37.160
in these things. And that's a friend to me is
00:04:37.160 --> 00:04:39.120
somebody that, oh, we don't have to be in full
00:04:39.120 --> 00:04:41.839
agreement on everything. But that old saying
00:04:41.839 --> 00:04:44.240
where you say, I got your back, they didn't.
00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:47.639
So how can I call that a friend? No, acquaintances
00:04:47.639 --> 00:04:52.000
appear in the sense of what we do for a living,
00:04:52.060 --> 00:04:56.259
but certainly not appear in how we do it. Because
00:04:56.259 --> 00:04:58.360
we didn't shut down our church and I stood very,
00:04:58.459 --> 00:05:02.410
very, very strong. telling pastors and preachers,
00:05:02.430 --> 00:05:03.949
don't shut down your church. Don't give in to
00:05:03.949 --> 00:05:06.689
that tyranny. This is still the United States
00:05:06.689 --> 00:05:09.550
of America, and we have religious freedom and
00:05:09.550 --> 00:05:11.470
rights that the government is not supposed to
00:05:11.470 --> 00:05:15.089
be able to tell us how to do our church life
00:05:15.089 --> 00:05:19.850
at all. So any thoughts on that, Shekinah, before
00:05:19.850 --> 00:05:23.149
we jump into Russell Brand? No, yeah, no, I agree.
00:05:23.290 --> 00:05:26.750
Like I said, I bore witness to all of that. Even
00:05:26.750 --> 00:05:30.550
those same pastors who, when the whole conspiracy
00:05:30.550 --> 00:05:35.290
and everything became evident and proof that
00:05:35.290 --> 00:05:38.490
the vaccine was a scam, and now they have lawsuits
00:05:38.490 --> 00:05:42.790
against it. Even the CDC website is warning people,
00:05:42.850 --> 00:05:45.370
stop taking it, and here are the risks involved
00:05:45.370 --> 00:05:47.350
with it. We have doctors who aren't willing to
00:05:47.350 --> 00:05:50.470
prescribe it any longer. We have pastors who
00:05:50.470 --> 00:05:53.689
are... can't deny the evidence and who are admitting
00:05:53.689 --> 00:05:55.970
even on their own social medias that this is
00:05:55.970 --> 00:05:59.910
a scam. But they didn't repent. They didn't apologize
00:05:59.910 --> 00:06:02.850
to the people that they threatened and dismissed
00:06:02.850 --> 00:06:05.889
from their lives as a result of keeping their
00:06:05.889 --> 00:06:09.050
doors open. I mean, they shifted in their thinking,
00:06:09.110 --> 00:06:12.269
which is good, but they didn't repent for what
00:06:12.269 --> 00:06:17.449
they originally said. It's strange to me to witness
00:06:17.449 --> 00:06:20.370
that, that these same pastors who were Closing
00:06:20.370 --> 00:06:24.970
their doors and threatened by other pastors and
00:06:24.970 --> 00:06:28.829
other people who were claiming this to be a conspiracy
00:06:28.829 --> 00:06:34.529
and a scam. I mean, you had pastors calling you
00:06:34.529 --> 00:06:36.569
a murderer for keeping your doors open because
00:06:36.569 --> 00:06:39.089
you were killing people and you were exposing
00:06:39.089 --> 00:06:43.629
them to COVID. And all this nonsense, those same
00:06:43.629 --> 00:06:45.689
pastors are now posting on their social medias
00:06:45.689 --> 00:06:47.949
how they recognize that this has been a scam
00:06:47.949 --> 00:06:50.329
and that this has been a problem. But they didn't
00:06:50.329 --> 00:06:53.250
repent for what they originally said in their
00:06:53.250 --> 00:06:55.550
own churches, and they certainly didn't apologize
00:06:55.550 --> 00:07:00.470
to the people that they called murderers. Not
00:07:00.470 --> 00:07:02.449
one of them has come back and apologized to me.
00:07:02.529 --> 00:07:03.529
They shifted in their thinking, but they didn't
00:07:03.529 --> 00:07:06.170
backtrack on what they originally said. They
00:07:06.170 --> 00:07:09.110
didn't acknowledge that they believed differently
00:07:09.110 --> 00:07:12.029
in the past. So it's interesting to me to see
00:07:12.029 --> 00:07:14.790
that their shifting changed, their thinking changed,
00:07:14.889 --> 00:07:17.910
but they didn't repent. They didn't apologize
00:07:17.910 --> 00:07:21.029
to anyone. No, and they certainly, not one of
00:07:21.029 --> 00:07:22.930
them has come back and apologized for saying,
00:07:23.089 --> 00:07:26.829
I was going to kill. And how many people, I think
00:07:26.829 --> 00:07:29.709
you remember this, how many people did we lose?
00:07:29.910 --> 00:07:32.350
How many people in our church? We stayed open,
00:07:32.470 --> 00:07:34.430
didn't close doors, we didn't social distance,
00:07:34.589 --> 00:07:36.910
we didn't worry about any of that stuff. We prayed
00:07:36.910 --> 00:07:39.550
for people. How many people did we lose to COVID?
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:43.660
Not a single one. Right. In fact, I think everyone,
00:07:43.839 --> 00:07:46.480
you know, the flu season, we had a few people
00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:50.019
got the flu. A few people got the COVID. I got
00:07:50.019 --> 00:07:52.480
COVID a couple times. But you know what? It was
00:07:52.480 --> 00:07:54.860
a flu. Yeah. I fought it off. My body fought
00:07:54.860 --> 00:07:56.519
it off like any other flu that I'd gotten in
00:07:56.519 --> 00:07:58.220
the past. And I was fine. Just like everyone
00:07:58.220 --> 00:08:00.480
else in the church. No one got seriously sick.
00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:03.279
No one was hospitalized. Not one person in our
00:08:03.279 --> 00:08:06.220
church even went to the hospital as a result
00:08:06.220 --> 00:08:08.300
of COVID, as far as I know. And we certainly
00:08:08.300 --> 00:08:11.040
didn't lose any lives. Well, there was two that
00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:13.759
actually did go to the hospital. But, okay, here's
00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:15.899
the situation. One of the ladies, I won't mention
00:08:15.899 --> 00:08:18.120
any names only because I did get permission from
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:21.000
them or their family. One of the ladies, she
00:08:21.000 --> 00:08:24.819
survived cancer three times. She was a serious,
00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:26.839
I mean, when I say diabetic, I'm talking about
00:08:26.839 --> 00:08:29.759
serious diabetic. She had an enlarged heart,
00:08:29.959 --> 00:08:32.860
what do they call it, cardiovascular issues and
00:08:32.860 --> 00:08:37.799
problems with her heart. So she had several comorbidities.
00:08:38.570 --> 00:08:40.450
She did go into the hospital. She wasn't there
00:08:40.450 --> 00:08:43.769
very, very long. And they released her, and she
00:08:43.769 --> 00:08:47.309
got over it. Another lady, an older lady, she
00:08:47.309 --> 00:08:49.230
went in. It was more of a precautionary thing.
00:08:49.289 --> 00:08:52.389
She was a very fearful person and somewhat new
00:08:52.389 --> 00:08:56.710
to our church. But she went in, again, wasn't
00:08:56.710 --> 00:09:00.029
there very long, got over it, and got out. We
00:09:00.029 --> 00:09:04.029
didn't lose anybody. I mean, we lost zero people
00:09:04.029 --> 00:09:07.409
to COVID. And we didn't lose anybody to the jab
00:09:07.409 --> 00:09:09.350
because there's hardly anybody in our church
00:09:09.350 --> 00:09:12.350
that took the jab. No. But the people that I
00:09:12.350 --> 00:09:14.830
did know the jab, I know more people personally.
00:09:14.929 --> 00:09:18.889
This is just what I know and what I see and what
00:09:18.889 --> 00:09:22.590
I know. I know many, many people that have died
00:09:22.590 --> 00:09:25.549
because of the complications with the jab. Yes.
00:09:25.649 --> 00:09:29.769
There are doctors who are refusing to prescribe
00:09:29.769 --> 00:09:34.769
the COVID vaccine. Yeah. And I only know of.
00:09:35.549 --> 00:09:39.470
I only know of people, not directly, but of people
00:09:39.470 --> 00:09:43.590
that have supposedly died of COVID. And you know
00:09:43.590 --> 00:09:46.230
how it was. A person died of anything, and automatically
00:09:46.230 --> 00:09:48.789
it was COVID. Oh, yeah. They tried to do that
00:09:48.789 --> 00:09:51.769
with my father -in -law when he passed. It had
00:09:51.769 --> 00:09:54.950
nothing to do with the cancer. Yeah. It had absolutely
00:09:54.950 --> 00:09:57.409
nothing to do. He died of COVID. Right. He had
00:09:57.409 --> 00:10:00.129
a heart attack. No, he had COVID. So anyway,
00:10:02.370 --> 00:10:06.539
so it was a weird thing. Anyways, just laying
00:10:06.539 --> 00:10:08.700
the groundwork for what we're going to do. I'm
00:10:08.700 --> 00:10:13.019
going to talk about different ones in our culture
00:10:13.019 --> 00:10:17.000
today that are doing a much better job of standing
00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:18.899
up for righteousness than most. I'm not going
00:10:18.899 --> 00:10:22.039
to say all, but most preachers in our pulpits.
00:10:22.899 --> 00:10:28.080
And this is, on one hand, very exciting. On the
00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:30.279
other hand, as far as the church is concerned,
00:10:30.460 --> 00:10:35.019
it's very sad. Because we had advocated our responsibility
00:10:35.019 --> 00:10:39.379
to, well, as you're going to see, to people that
00:10:39.379 --> 00:10:43.399
you would never think would ever rise up with
00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:45.659
any word of righteousness in their mouth. And
00:10:45.659 --> 00:10:47.820
I want to start with Russell Brand. I mentioned
00:10:47.820 --> 00:10:49.879
his name just a moment ago. Russell Brand, if
00:10:49.879 --> 00:10:51.720
you don't know who he is, he's a comedian. He's
00:10:51.720 --> 00:10:54.899
an actor. What else does he do? He does a lot
00:10:54.899 --> 00:10:59.600
of things, but mostly a comedian, actor. and
00:10:59.600 --> 00:11:01.600
he's been around a little while. He's English
00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:07.000
from Great Britain. And Russell Brand this year,
00:11:07.059 --> 00:11:11.440
now TPUSA, which was Charlie Kirk's organization,
00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:16.080
has what they call AmFest, and it's literally,
00:11:16.220 --> 00:11:18.860
I believe today is the last day, or they wrapped
00:11:18.860 --> 00:11:23.629
it up last night. It was this week. And my daughter
00:11:23.629 --> 00:11:27.230
works for TPUSA. She's at it. Some of the young
00:11:27.230 --> 00:11:29.970
ladies and the young men from our church, along
00:11:29.970 --> 00:11:33.549
with our youth pastors, are at it. And they said
00:11:33.549 --> 00:11:37.350
it's so packed after Charlie's assassination.
00:11:37.509 --> 00:11:41.169
So packed. They showed me pictures. It looks
00:11:41.169 --> 00:11:44.990
like Disneyland at New Year's Eve. So anyways,
00:11:45.289 --> 00:11:49.049
Russell Brand, of all people, was there as one
00:11:49.049 --> 00:11:52.340
of the speakers. And if you know anything about
00:11:52.340 --> 00:11:55.620
Russell Brand, back in the day, I never – I can't
00:11:55.620 --> 00:11:58.720
say that I was a fan because I just – I don't
00:11:58.720 --> 00:12:00.840
do that. I'm just not that guy. There are some
00:12:00.840 --> 00:12:02.659
guys that I think are great, like, for instance,
00:12:02.879 --> 00:12:05.710
Jack Black. When he did Nacho Libre, that was
00:12:05.710 --> 00:12:09.669
his movie. I love Nacho Libre. I've watched that
00:12:09.669 --> 00:12:12.730
thing so many times, and even though I know exactly
00:12:12.730 --> 00:12:15.210
what's going to happen next, I still sit there
00:12:15.210 --> 00:12:18.149
and crack up knowing what's coming. Our family
00:12:18.149 --> 00:12:21.110
has that whole movie quoted. Yeah, we could be
00:12:21.110 --> 00:12:25.190
anywhere in the world, and something will, my
00:12:25.190 --> 00:12:28.169
wife hates this word, triggers, and we start
00:12:28.169 --> 00:12:29.870
quoting Jack Black and Nacho Libre. Oh, yeah,
00:12:29.870 --> 00:12:33.799
it just keeps going. If we're walking somewhere
00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:37.559
and we see corn, we'll wave our hand real broadly,
00:12:37.659 --> 00:12:42.840
get that corn out of my face. But I wouldn't
00:12:42.840 --> 00:12:45.460
say that I'm this big Jack Black fan. I'm not
00:12:45.460 --> 00:12:48.960
a non -fan. I just don't do that. I just don't
00:12:48.960 --> 00:12:51.919
get into that type of thing. I don't have posters,
00:12:52.019 --> 00:12:55.320
never had posters on my wall of football, basketball,
00:12:55.480 --> 00:13:00.230
baseball stars, anything like that. You know,
00:13:00.250 --> 00:13:02.029
I'm only trying to say this to make a point.
00:13:02.070 --> 00:13:05.750
So Russell Brand has been around for a long time.
00:13:05.789 --> 00:13:07.570
He's actually older than I thought he was. Not
00:13:07.570 --> 00:13:09.269
that he's old. He's just older than I thought
00:13:09.269 --> 00:13:12.029
he was. And he's done different movies and different
00:13:12.029 --> 00:13:16.509
things, comedic style. And so he's been around
00:13:16.509 --> 00:13:19.049
for a while. And just within the last few years,
00:13:19.269 --> 00:13:22.629
he not just got saved. He didn't just come to
00:13:22.629 --> 00:13:27.220
Christ. He came radically to Christ. And I hear
00:13:27.220 --> 00:13:29.700
Russell Brand speak or do an interview or speak
00:13:29.700 --> 00:13:35.019
about his faith, and he is so, he's a great thinker.
00:13:35.059 --> 00:13:36.860
I mean, you don't think of him, when you see
00:13:36.860 --> 00:13:39.840
some of his movies and hear his, you know, or
00:13:39.840 --> 00:13:43.100
watch him in comedy or something, you know, it's
00:13:43.100 --> 00:13:45.460
a comedian. And I'm not saying comedians aren't
00:13:45.460 --> 00:13:47.159
deep thinkers, it's just not what they portray
00:13:47.159 --> 00:13:51.019
on the stage or in a movie. But to hear him in
00:13:51.019 --> 00:13:52.879
an interview or hear him speak about Christ,
00:13:53.019 --> 00:13:55.220
hear him speak about the Bible, you say, this
00:13:55.220 --> 00:13:58.460
guy. He is a deep thinker, not just well -read,
00:13:58.620 --> 00:14:04.299
a deep thinker. Totally different than the persona
00:14:04.299 --> 00:14:07.840
that he has up on the screen. So he gets saved,
00:14:07.940 --> 00:14:11.600
and I don't know where he was before his salvation,
00:14:11.620 --> 00:14:15.440
but now he's very, very conservative and very
00:14:15.440 --> 00:14:18.240
vocal about his conservative values and his Christian
00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:21.100
values. So before I read this, I'm going to read
00:14:21.100 --> 00:14:24.720
to you his prayer, his opening prayer. And if
00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:26.899
I understood it correctly, now I wasn't there,
00:14:26.980 --> 00:14:30.200
but if I understood it correctly, he opened up
00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:33.899
AmFest. He opened up the whole event with this
00:14:33.899 --> 00:14:37.179
prayer. That's incredible. But anyways, do you
00:14:37.179 --> 00:14:39.320
have anything you want to add? Now, my daughter,
00:14:39.399 --> 00:14:42.500
she's more tapped into a lot of these actors
00:14:42.500 --> 00:14:46.240
and actresses and musicians and comedians than
00:14:46.240 --> 00:14:48.019
I am. So if you know something I don't know,
00:14:48.059 --> 00:14:50.840
please spit it out with Russell Brand. No, just
00:14:50.840 --> 00:14:53.120
to some degree. I get all my information from
00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:55.600
Instagram Reels. So, you know, I get my information
00:14:55.600 --> 00:14:57.600
from 60 -second clips that I scroll through.
00:14:57.700 --> 00:14:59.679
But I do follow him on Instagram, and you're
00:14:59.679 --> 00:15:01.940
right. His walk with the Lord is incredible.
00:15:02.220 --> 00:15:05.500
He has zero shame in saying – he's not just saved.
00:15:05.559 --> 00:15:07.720
A lot of people say, I'm saved, and I'm a Christian,
00:15:07.820 --> 00:15:10.679
and I have faith. But those same people don't
00:15:10.679 --> 00:15:14.639
use the word Jesus Christ as often as Russell
00:15:14.639 --> 00:15:17.980
Brand does. He is boldly – he says very boldly
00:15:17.980 --> 00:15:22.120
and proudly. as often as he can, Jesus Christ.
00:15:22.580 --> 00:15:26.639
And that really warms my heart just to see that
00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:29.860
because I know a lot of Christians in the, you
00:15:29.860 --> 00:15:33.639
know, we have Chris Pratt and we have a few others.
00:15:34.639 --> 00:15:38.600
Mark Wahlberg is also a Christian. And they say
00:15:38.600 --> 00:15:40.580
that on interviews and they talk about it, but
00:15:40.580 --> 00:15:45.000
I have never as boldly. heard anyone in Hollywood
00:15:45.000 --> 00:15:48.840
proclaim the name of Jesus Christ as much as
00:15:48.840 --> 00:15:51.639
Russell Brand. And I really appreciated that
00:15:51.639 --> 00:15:54.419
about him. So anyways, it says, Russell Brand
00:15:54.419 --> 00:15:57.940
opens up AmFest with prayer. Thank you for your
00:15:57.940 --> 00:16:00.299
son, Jesus Christ, who died so that we may have
00:16:00.299 --> 00:16:03.080
eternal life. That's kind of the heading of this
00:16:03.080 --> 00:16:06.460
particular, that was in this article that I pulled
00:16:06.460 --> 00:16:09.059
up of him. And then I got the whole transcription
00:16:09.059 --> 00:16:11.740
of his prayer. He says, Heavenly Father, would
00:16:11.740 --> 00:16:13.960
you guide my mouth? Would you guard my lips?
00:16:14.059 --> 00:16:16.919
Oh, Lord, I bend my knee and my tongue will serve
00:16:16.919 --> 00:16:20.500
you. Heavenly Father and no other. Thank you,
00:16:20.500 --> 00:16:22.840
Lord, for your son, Jesus Christ, who died that
00:16:22.840 --> 00:16:27.059
we may know eternal life. But may we know eternity
00:16:27.059 --> 00:16:30.919
here in this moment, Lord. There is no statute.
00:16:31.580 --> 00:16:34.980
or of limitation on love thy neighbor. The whole
00:16:34.980 --> 00:16:38.080
world is our neighbor. We were intended to be
00:16:38.080 --> 00:16:41.059
one family, Heavenly Father. You gave your life,
00:16:41.100 --> 00:16:43.460
you gave your blood, and may the covenant of
00:16:43.460 --> 00:16:46.980
your blood cover us all. I pray, Father, for
00:16:46.980 --> 00:16:49.899
the eternal soul of Charlie Kirk. I thank you
00:16:49.899 --> 00:16:52.940
for his sacrifice, and I thank you, Lord, that
00:16:52.940 --> 00:16:55.460
we have the opportunity to be here in unity,
00:16:55.639 --> 00:16:59.059
the opportunity for true unity, the opportunity
00:16:59.059 --> 00:17:02.929
for community. the opportunity to be different,
00:17:03.049 --> 00:17:05.490
Lord. I thank you, Heavenly Father, for Erica
00:17:05.490 --> 00:17:08.549
Kirk's boldness and her bravery and her example
00:17:08.549 --> 00:17:11.490
of forgiveness. And surely, if she can forgive
00:17:11.490 --> 00:17:15.130
the people of the man responsible, Lord, for
00:17:15.130 --> 00:17:17.130
the murder of her husband, surely his principle
00:17:17.130 --> 00:17:20.450
of forgiveness is something that we can all extend.
00:17:20.829 --> 00:17:23.490
Lord, may we know your grace. May we live in
00:17:23.490 --> 00:17:28.240
your grace. And particularly when it's... expensive
00:17:28.240 --> 00:17:30.680
to us, when it costs us something, may we enter
00:17:30.680 --> 00:17:33.559
into your kingdom, the kingdom of love. May we
00:17:33.559 --> 00:17:37.259
put aside petty squabbles and disputes, and may
00:17:37.259 --> 00:17:40.460
we move into a new era of grace in your glory.
00:17:40.579 --> 00:17:43.400
I pray for the kingdoms to merge. I pray for
00:17:43.400 --> 00:17:46.559
your return. I pray that we participate in making
00:17:46.559 --> 00:17:49.680
straight paths in the holy name of Jesus Christ,
00:17:49.740 --> 00:17:53.630
I pray. Amen. Now, I'm going to put the links
00:17:53.630 --> 00:17:57.890
up in the comments or the description, I should
00:17:57.890 --> 00:18:00.289
say, of this podcast. So if you want to click
00:18:00.289 --> 00:18:02.089
on it and go read these things for yourself.
00:18:02.390 --> 00:18:06.509
So I pulled them. I found them. Just a little
00:18:06.509 --> 00:18:10.140
note. I'm not familiar with some of these websites,
00:18:10.420 --> 00:18:12.339
you know, real familiar with them, so I don't
00:18:12.339 --> 00:18:14.019
know if they're really great or bad. They just
00:18:14.019 --> 00:18:16.859
quoted him. I found it. I liked it. So if you
00:18:16.859 --> 00:18:20.500
go digging deeper past that prayer in this website,
00:18:20.660 --> 00:18:23.039
and it turns out to be weird, at least we got
00:18:23.039 --> 00:18:25.480
the quote right, okay, like I said, and we can
00:18:25.480 --> 00:18:28.059
corroborate that because we have people there
00:18:28.059 --> 00:18:30.730
on the ground with him. But I think that Shekinah
00:18:30.730 --> 00:18:33.150
is a very, very powerful. When you look at the
00:18:33.150 --> 00:18:36.470
guy where he came from, who he was before, I
00:18:36.470 --> 00:18:40.369
mean, he was almost like braggart about his lifestyle,
00:18:40.470 --> 00:18:42.690
about the women he was with, about the drugs
00:18:42.690 --> 00:18:45.089
that he took and the alcohol. This is before
00:18:45.089 --> 00:18:47.710
Christ, ladies and gentlemen. And now look at
00:18:47.710 --> 00:18:51.829
him. Completely, no, completely shifted, completely
00:18:51.829 --> 00:18:55.390
changed. And like I said, when you see a lot
00:18:55.390 --> 00:18:59.369
of these actors, musicians, comedians convert
00:18:59.369 --> 00:19:01.450
to Christianity, there's like a spark there.
00:19:01.650 --> 00:19:03.869
They get on their social medias and they proclaim
00:19:03.869 --> 00:19:05.670
their new salvation and then it's just quickly
00:19:05.670 --> 00:19:07.390
faded. It's just something more than a spark.
00:19:07.509 --> 00:19:10.109
It's a fad that they fall into. They take a couple
00:19:10.109 --> 00:19:12.450
pictures of the rosary in their hand. just to
00:19:12.450 --> 00:19:14.970
prove a point, just to get on the fat of it,
00:19:15.069 --> 00:19:16.890
and then it just fades. Their lifestyle doesn't
00:19:16.890 --> 00:19:19.589
change. Russell Brand, when he first got saved,
00:19:19.730 --> 00:19:21.829
everyone kind of backed up and looked at his
00:19:21.829 --> 00:19:25.289
lifestyle, but he's been consistent, and even
00:19:25.289 --> 00:19:27.970
he's gone deeper and further in his faith the
00:19:27.970 --> 00:19:31.329
longer that he's been saved. And as we were talking
00:19:31.329 --> 00:19:33.710
about earlier, every interview I've seen him
00:19:33.710 --> 00:19:36.700
in, like I said, Jesus Christ is on his lips.
00:19:36.720 --> 00:19:39.480
The name Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior. It's
00:19:39.480 --> 00:19:42.880
not just a one -time thing. It's not the fad.
00:19:42.900 --> 00:19:45.059
In fact, he's lost so many followers and he's
00:19:45.059 --> 00:19:48.180
lost so many people. he is boldly proclaimed.
00:19:48.259 --> 00:19:50.099
He's calling out other Christians. He's calling
00:19:50.099 --> 00:19:52.740
out other pastors for not standing in the word
00:19:52.740 --> 00:19:55.900
as they should. So, I mean, this guy is, he's
00:19:55.900 --> 00:19:58.539
radically on fire and I continue to pray protection
00:19:58.539 --> 00:20:00.819
over him because the way that he's speaking,
00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:03.339
the enemy's got a target on his back for sure.
00:20:03.440 --> 00:20:06.099
So I think as Christians, someone who's boldly
00:20:06.099 --> 00:20:08.400
proclaiming the name of Jesus and boldly proclaiming
00:20:08.400 --> 00:20:10.900
the word on such a public level, we need to band
00:20:10.900 --> 00:20:13.599
together in unity and protect our brother in
00:20:13.599 --> 00:20:16.160
prayer. I totally agree with that, because one
00:20:16.160 --> 00:20:17.799
of the things that really has always bothered
00:20:17.799 --> 00:20:21.700
me is when an actor, actress, singer, whoever,
00:20:22.079 --> 00:20:23.740
an entertainer, somebody that's well -known,
00:20:23.779 --> 00:20:28.359
comes out and they claim Christ, and then you
00:20:28.359 --> 00:20:31.339
watch them, and this is how I used to be. This
00:20:31.339 --> 00:20:33.660
dude is now a Christian. I'm going to support
00:20:33.660 --> 00:20:36.920
them. I go to their next movie, and it's filled
00:20:36.920 --> 00:20:39.119
with all kinds of swear words and curse words
00:20:39.119 --> 00:20:40.960
and all kinds of stuff, and I'm like, I thought
00:20:40.960 --> 00:20:43.589
you were a Christian. Oh, that's just the character
00:20:43.589 --> 00:20:46.970
I'm playing. I don't care. Listen, and you can
00:20:46.970 --> 00:20:50.369
check this out. Denzel Washington, he's always
00:20:50.369 --> 00:20:52.609
been kind of a Christian, but he really got serious
00:20:52.609 --> 00:20:54.369
in the last few years. As a matter of fact, if
00:20:54.369 --> 00:20:57.150
I understood it correctly, he just recently got
00:20:57.150 --> 00:21:01.089
ordained. And when he did that, oh, it was the
00:21:01.089 --> 00:21:03.910
movie that he did where he goes off and kills
00:21:03.910 --> 00:21:06.710
all those people, protecting people, ladies and
00:21:06.710 --> 00:21:11.809
gentlemen. Anyways, it's a series. The Equalizer.
00:21:12.450 --> 00:21:14.410
Now when I say series, I think they're up to
00:21:14.410 --> 00:21:17.309
part three. So it's movies, not a series on a
00:21:17.309 --> 00:21:19.789
television. But when you watch The Equalizer,
00:21:19.789 --> 00:21:22.630
the very first one, he doesn't swear at all.
00:21:23.130 --> 00:21:25.349
He even corrects, and I don't know if this was
00:21:25.349 --> 00:21:27.609
off the cuff or written into the script, but
00:21:27.609 --> 00:21:30.390
he even gets on the case of some co -workers.
00:21:30.470 --> 00:21:33.230
He's working at a Home Depot, I believe it was.
00:21:34.159 --> 00:21:36.740
And he's like ex -CIA or something like that.
00:21:36.819 --> 00:21:38.740
Anyways, he's working at this Home Depot. He
00:21:38.740 --> 00:21:40.640
has some younger guys that he's working with,
00:21:40.700 --> 00:21:43.500
and they're swearing. And he corrects them and
00:21:43.500 --> 00:21:47.099
tells them to stop using all those swear words.
00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:49.559
When he did The Book of Eli, I don't believe
00:21:49.559 --> 00:21:53.339
he swore at all in that whole thing. And so the
00:21:53.339 --> 00:21:55.900
image that he was putting out on the screen was
00:21:55.900 --> 00:21:57.920
one. But his co -stars did. We're not telling
00:21:57.920 --> 00:22:00.789
you to. Yeah, yeah. I'm not saying this is a
00:22:00.789 --> 00:22:02.210
Christian movie. I just don't want people to
00:22:02.210 --> 00:22:05.289
go watch it and go, wait a minute. I'm just saying
00:22:05.289 --> 00:22:09.890
that there was a clear change in him as an individual,
00:22:10.029 --> 00:22:14.730
and I appreciate that. There's that guy, Neal
00:22:14.730 --> 00:22:17.809
McDonald. I think that's how you pronounce his
00:22:17.809 --> 00:22:21.849
last name. Neal McDonald. He's the actor. He's
00:22:21.849 --> 00:22:25.130
got those, he's kind of graying hair, but piercing
00:22:25.130 --> 00:22:29.460
blue eyes. Typically, he plays that bad guy.
00:22:29.559 --> 00:22:32.440
Not always, but typically. I always liked him
00:22:32.440 --> 00:22:36.579
as an actor. But he's a Christian, professing
00:22:36.579 --> 00:22:39.799
believer in Jesus Christ, and he won't do any
00:22:39.799 --> 00:22:42.480
kind of sex scenes. He won't kiss another woman
00:22:42.480 --> 00:22:44.440
because he's married and he only kisses his wife.
00:22:44.720 --> 00:22:48.059
You never hear him say anything that I've ever
00:22:48.059 --> 00:22:51.559
heard, that I personally have heard really bad
00:22:51.559 --> 00:22:54.359
or anything like that. He lives up to his faith.
00:22:55.039 --> 00:22:57.700
Maybe not every other actor. actor or actress
00:22:57.700 --> 00:23:00.740
in that particular movie does, but he certainly
00:23:00.740 --> 00:23:03.839
does. He's an example too. When I hear these
00:23:03.839 --> 00:23:05.579
actors, well, I'm just playing a character. That's
00:23:05.579 --> 00:23:07.359
not who I really am. I'm just playing a character.
00:23:07.460 --> 00:23:09.700
Well, this guy, he plays all the villains and
00:23:09.700 --> 00:23:13.339
majority of the time he's playing villains and
00:23:13.339 --> 00:23:15.619
he does a very good job of it. He's proof that
00:23:15.619 --> 00:23:18.819
you can still play a character, play it well
00:23:18.819 --> 00:23:24.380
and convincingly without falling into just nonsense,
00:23:24.440 --> 00:23:27.200
into complete sin. on the screen and putting
00:23:27.200 --> 00:23:29.779
yourself in a position to be publicly sinful,
00:23:30.140 --> 00:23:34.000
you know, and against your word and against your
00:23:34.000 --> 00:23:36.279
faith. So it's hard for me when I hear these
00:23:36.279 --> 00:23:37.980
actors say, well, I'm just playing a character.
00:23:38.059 --> 00:23:39.480
That's not who I really am. I don't act that
00:23:39.480 --> 00:23:42.980
way when I'm at home. You can still choose that
00:23:42.980 --> 00:23:44.940
there are certain things, certain lines that
00:23:44.940 --> 00:23:46.839
you won't cross, and you can still be a great
00:23:46.839 --> 00:23:50.079
actor and a great performer. I agree. And that's
00:23:50.079 --> 00:23:51.720
why it really bugs me when I hear somebody say,
00:23:51.779 --> 00:23:54.000
oh, yeah, I'm a Christian now, or I'm serving
00:23:54.000 --> 00:23:57.200
Jesus now. And then they're throwing out F -bombs
00:23:57.200 --> 00:24:00.359
and doing all kinds of disgusting things on the
00:24:00.359 --> 00:24:02.559
screen in their next movie. And it's like, are
00:24:02.559 --> 00:24:05.480
you really? Or is that just kind of some cool
00:24:05.480 --> 00:24:08.759
fad that you jumped into? So these people that
00:24:08.759 --> 00:24:11.059
we're talking about here, well, Russell Brand
00:24:11.059 --> 00:24:13.279
claims to be a Christian, and from what I can
00:24:13.279 --> 00:24:16.059
see, is living up to it. And that's the point
00:24:16.059 --> 00:24:19.829
we're trying to make. He's living up. to it denzel
00:24:19.829 --> 00:24:21.869
washington as far as i know from what i see like
00:24:21.869 --> 00:24:24.690
i said i'm not these i don't go chasing hollywood
00:24:24.690 --> 00:24:27.710
i don't know everything about these guys just
00:24:27.710 --> 00:24:31.049
what i can see denzel washington lives up to
00:24:31.049 --> 00:24:35.710
his faith in jesus and these different ones so
00:24:35.710 --> 00:24:38.299
this next person i want to talk about I have
00:24:38.299 --> 00:24:39.859
a paper in front of me and we just keep going
00:24:39.859 --> 00:24:43.660
off, which is good, is someone that surprised
00:24:43.660 --> 00:24:46.920
me when I saw this. I mean, absolutely surprised
00:24:46.920 --> 00:24:48.539
me. Doesn't claim to be a Christian, at least
00:24:48.539 --> 00:24:51.440
that I know of. Doesn't claim to be a Christian
00:24:51.440 --> 00:24:54.819
that I know of. And yet is doing something, not
00:24:54.819 --> 00:24:57.259
necessarily preaching the gospel per se, but
00:24:57.259 --> 00:25:01.539
doing something for our world that preachers
00:25:01.539 --> 00:25:05.339
should be doing. And I hear so little spoken
00:25:05.339 --> 00:25:09.200
of these things from the pulpit. But of all people,
00:25:09.339 --> 00:25:14.819
rapper Nicki Minaj did something that most politicians
00:25:14.819 --> 00:25:18.440
and most preachers didn't want to touch with
00:25:18.440 --> 00:25:22.519
a 10 -foot pole. And she went to the UN. Nicki
00:25:22.519 --> 00:25:27.599
Minaj went to the UN and gave a speech. Let me
00:25:27.599 --> 00:25:30.880
just read this. Nicki gave a speech at the UN
00:25:30.880 --> 00:25:34.960
defending. Christians, she was defending Christians
00:25:34.960 --> 00:25:39.180
in Nigeria. In Nigeria since 2009, just a little
00:25:39.180 --> 00:25:45.259
over 15 years, 50 to 125 ,000 Christians have
00:25:45.259 --> 00:25:50.380
been murdered by Muslims. Aboko Haram, ISWAP,
00:25:50.500 --> 00:25:54.140
I'm not sure what that stands for, and other
00:25:54.140 --> 00:26:00.160
armed Fulani militia. Upwards of 125 ,000, 50
00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:02.490
,000 that they're sure of. Now, the reason the
00:26:02.490 --> 00:26:04.750
numbers are so askew is because that's a place
00:26:04.750 --> 00:26:08.329
in Nigeria that, you know, I don't know that
00:26:08.329 --> 00:26:11.450
they have the greatest of census up there. And
00:26:11.450 --> 00:26:14.910
then a lot of times these Muslims will go into
00:26:14.910 --> 00:26:17.769
a Christian village, murder absolutely everybody,
00:26:18.109 --> 00:26:21.269
and then burn everything down. So it's really,
00:26:21.410 --> 00:26:23.970
you know, by the time they get there and all
00:26:23.970 --> 00:26:26.230
that, it's really hard to figure out the exact
00:26:26.230 --> 00:26:29.009
numbers. And quite frankly, this is Nigeria.
00:26:29.289 --> 00:26:32.200
It has a Muslim. president or prime minister
00:26:32.200 --> 00:26:34.400
or whatever they call them there. The Muslims
00:26:34.400 --> 00:26:37.660
are going in there without anybody trying to
00:26:37.660 --> 00:26:40.579
stop them. So the reality of it is they just
00:26:40.579 --> 00:26:44.920
don't care. They really just don't care. I mean,
00:26:44.940 --> 00:26:47.880
the Christians do, and maybe some human rights
00:26:47.880 --> 00:26:50.960
group do, but by the time they get there or the
00:26:50.960 --> 00:26:54.319
time they're able to count heads, I mean, I hate
00:26:54.319 --> 00:26:55.900
to say it like this because it's going to sound
00:26:55.900 --> 00:26:58.460
kind of gross. But by the time they get around
00:26:58.460 --> 00:27:00.500
to counting heads, those heads are gone because
00:27:00.500 --> 00:27:03.319
the Muslims. I don't know why the world is putting
00:27:03.319 --> 00:27:06.380
up with Islam. I mean, I really don't. I don't
00:27:06.380 --> 00:27:09.380
know why Islam is saying, well, not all of them.
00:27:09.440 --> 00:27:12.920
Yeah, all of them is a wicked, wicked, wicked,
00:27:12.920 --> 00:27:17.779
evil, destructive, religious ideology. And they're
00:27:17.779 --> 00:27:22.279
murdering people. I mean, they're murderers.
00:27:23.039 --> 00:27:26.099
They're deceivers. They're liars. They're cheats.
00:27:26.339 --> 00:27:28.839
And they destroy. They don't build. They destroy.
00:27:29.380 --> 00:27:34.799
Yes. And they're doing that in Nigeria. And very
00:27:34.799 --> 00:27:36.799
few people are actually talking about it. But
00:27:36.799 --> 00:27:39.880
Nicki Minaj, rapper. Nicki Minaj. For those of
00:27:39.880 --> 00:27:42.259
you, I hate to say it like this, but you old
00:27:42.259 --> 00:27:43.799
white preachers out there, you don't know who
00:27:43.799 --> 00:27:47.259
that is, Google it. This is somebody who's rap.
00:27:47.880 --> 00:27:51.200
career is far from what we would say is Christian.
00:27:51.319 --> 00:27:54.359
Yes, and I did a quick Google search. She claims
00:27:54.359 --> 00:27:57.259
to be Christian, Catholic specifically. Her lifestyle
00:27:57.259 --> 00:28:01.630
certainly does not reflect that. But... You're
00:28:01.630 --> 00:28:03.750
right. What she says of the UN is profound and
00:28:03.750 --> 00:28:06.230
is more bold than what most preachers are willing
00:28:06.230 --> 00:28:08.569
to say. Yeah. So I'm going to, again, read the
00:28:08.569 --> 00:28:11.809
whole transcript from her speech at the UN defending
00:28:11.809 --> 00:28:18.970
Christians in Nigeria from Muslim murderers.
00:28:19.710 --> 00:28:23.730
Okay. She says, this is her speech. Hello, everyone.
00:28:23.750 --> 00:28:26.589
I must say I am very nervous, so please bear
00:28:26.589 --> 00:28:29.660
with me. Thank you, Ambassador Waltz, for this
00:28:29.660 --> 00:28:32.460
invitation. It is an honor to stand here with
00:28:32.460 --> 00:28:34.519
you and other distinguished speakers to shine
00:28:34.519 --> 00:28:37.079
a spotlight on the deadly threat facing thousands
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:40.720
of Christians in Nigeria. I want to thank President
00:28:40.720 --> 00:28:44.480
Trump for prioritizing this issue and for calling
00:28:44.480 --> 00:28:47.599
for urgent action to defend Christians in Nigeria,
00:28:47.880 --> 00:28:51.220
to combat extremism, and to stop violence against
00:28:51.220 --> 00:28:53.519
those who simply want to exercise their natural
00:28:53.519 --> 00:28:57.339
right of freedom of religion or belief. Now,
00:28:57.380 --> 00:28:59.700
again, ladies, ladies and gentlemen, does this
00:28:59.700 --> 00:29:03.500
sound like Nicki Minaj, rapper, whose lifestyle
00:29:03.500 --> 00:29:07.920
and rap career is so far away from what we would
00:29:07.920 --> 00:29:10.779
call Christian values, yet she still had enough
00:29:10.779 --> 00:29:12.920
righteousness in her heart? Now, again, I'm not
00:29:12.920 --> 00:29:14.319
saying she's saved. I'm not saying she's going
00:29:14.319 --> 00:29:15.920
to heaven. I'm not saying she's going, because
00:29:15.920 --> 00:29:18.180
I don't know. I don't know her that well. I'm
00:29:18.180 --> 00:29:21.140
just saying, when you put her career against
00:29:21.140 --> 00:29:24.900
this speech, she stepped into something that
00:29:24.900 --> 00:29:29.410
most preachers today will not do okay let me
00:29:29.410 --> 00:29:34.430
finish this so she stood up for the natural right
00:29:34.430 --> 00:29:37.049
of freedom of religion or belief okay i stand
00:29:37.049 --> 00:29:40.430
here as a proud new yorker grateful to live in
00:29:40.430 --> 00:29:42.690
a country where we can freely and safely worship
00:29:42.690 --> 00:29:45.190
god regardless of our creed background or politics
00:29:45.190 --> 00:29:48.430
no group should ever be persecuted for practicing
00:29:48.430 --> 00:29:50.829
their religion and we don't have to share the
00:29:50.829 --> 00:29:52.829
same beliefs in order to respect one another
00:29:52.829 --> 00:29:56.980
we are way beyond expecting the person next to
00:29:56.980 --> 00:29:59.579
us to have the exact same beliefs. That is ridiculous,
00:29:59.660 --> 00:30:02.859
but differences should not make anyone feel less
00:30:02.859 --> 00:30:05.660
safe. My music has taken me around the world.
00:30:05.740 --> 00:30:08.599
I have seen how people, no matter their language,
00:30:08.680 --> 00:30:10.759
culture, or religion, come alive when they hear
00:30:10.759 --> 00:30:13.579
a song that touches their soul. Religious freedom
00:30:13.579 --> 00:30:16.700
means we can all sing our faith, no matter who
00:30:16.700 --> 00:30:19.440
we are or what we believe. But today, faith is
00:30:19.440 --> 00:30:22.420
under attack in too many places. In Nigeria,
00:30:22.720 --> 00:30:25.400
Christians are being targeted, driven from their
00:30:25.400 --> 00:30:28.279
homes, and killed. Christians have been burned.
00:30:28.619 --> 00:30:31.380
Families torn apart. Entire communities live
00:30:31.380 --> 00:30:34.019
in constant fear simply because of how they pray.
00:30:34.640 --> 00:30:37.519
Sadly, this is not only a Nigerian problem. It
00:30:37.519 --> 00:30:40.460
is rising in many countries, and it demands urgent
00:30:40.460 --> 00:30:44.460
action. Let me be clear. Protecting Christians
00:30:44.460 --> 00:30:48.099
in Nigeria is not about taking sides. It is about
00:30:48.099 --> 00:30:52.819
uniting humanity. Nigeria is a beautiful nation
00:30:52.819 --> 00:30:55.220
with deep faith traditions and lots of beautiful
00:30:55.220 --> 00:30:59.839
barbs that I can't wait to see. I think she calls
00:30:59.839 --> 00:31:04.960
herself the Barbie or whatever. Anyways, when
00:31:04.960 --> 00:31:08.200
any church, mosque, or place of worship is destroyed,
00:31:08.440 --> 00:31:10.740
everyone's heart should break. The foundation
00:31:10.740 --> 00:31:14.309
of the United States, with its mandate... for
00:31:14.309 --> 00:31:17.029
peace and security should shake. Today I am joined
00:31:17.029 --> 00:31:20.049
by peace builders and faith leaders, people who
00:31:20.049 --> 00:31:22.569
saw violence, intolerance, and threats growing,
00:31:22.690 --> 00:31:27.569
yet chose to look away. I am inspired by their
00:31:27.569 --> 00:31:29.789
work to build interfaith ties, recognize shared
00:31:29.789 --> 00:31:32.829
humanity, and defend security and liberty for
00:31:32.829 --> 00:31:35.619
all who pray. I hope this discussion encourages
00:31:35.619 --> 00:31:38.980
deeper solidarity. We must work urgently to ensure
00:31:38.980 --> 00:31:41.259
every person can enjoy the right to believe,
00:31:41.319 --> 00:31:44.900
worship, and live in peace. Barbs, that's for
00:31:44.900 --> 00:31:47.200
followers, I guess. Barbs, I know you're listening.
00:31:47.380 --> 00:31:50.099
I love you dearly. You've been a light in my
00:31:50.099 --> 00:31:53.220
life for so long. I appreciate you. And I want
00:31:53.220 --> 00:31:55.740
to say again, this is not about taking sides.
00:31:55.900 --> 00:31:58.039
This is about standing up in the face of injustice.
00:31:58.420 --> 00:32:00.339
This is what I've stood for my whole career.
00:32:01.160 --> 00:32:03.140
For the rest of my life, I will care for anyone,
00:32:03.319 --> 00:32:05.819
anywhere as being persecuted for their beliefs.
00:32:06.019 --> 00:32:09.079
Thank you. Now again, I'm going to put the link
00:32:09.079 --> 00:32:11.240
if you want to go get that whole quote yourself.
00:32:11.859 --> 00:32:15.079
But again, there's some words in there and there's
00:32:15.079 --> 00:32:16.680
some phrases in there I would have chose not
00:32:16.680 --> 00:32:19.039
to use. Like I wouldn't have called my followers
00:32:19.039 --> 00:32:24.799
barbs. But why is it that Nicki Minaj, a rapper,
00:32:25.609 --> 00:32:29.009
who's not really living Christ -like faith on
00:32:29.009 --> 00:32:33.069
display, is doing a better job at the UN than
00:32:33.069 --> 00:32:37.990
any preacher that I know of in this regard. She
00:32:37.990 --> 00:32:42.130
is calling for the safety of Christians, especially
00:32:42.130 --> 00:32:45.410
in Nigeria, but also around the world, more than
00:32:45.410 --> 00:32:49.990
preachers in the pulpit. On one hand, I'm grateful
00:32:49.990 --> 00:32:51.890
that God is saying, listen, you guys don't want
00:32:51.890 --> 00:32:53.970
to do it. I'll find someone like Nicki Minaj
00:32:53.970 --> 00:32:56.880
to do it. I'm grateful for that. But it also
00:32:56.880 --> 00:32:59.259
breaks my heart that God had to go look outside
00:32:59.259 --> 00:33:01.240
of the church to do what the church should be
00:33:01.240 --> 00:33:05.259
doing. It goes all the way back to like King
00:33:05.259 --> 00:33:08.380
Cyrus in the Bible. And one of the reasons why
00:33:08.380 --> 00:33:11.420
many prophetic voices believe and prophesied
00:33:11.420 --> 00:33:14.759
that God was raising up President Trump as a
00:33:14.759 --> 00:33:17.799
Cyrus, a modern day Cyrus. So whether it be Trump,
00:33:17.960 --> 00:33:22.400
Cyrus of old, Nicki Minaj, Russell Brand, or
00:33:22.400 --> 00:33:25.380
anyone else that we're gonna talk about, doing
00:33:25.380 --> 00:33:28.640
the job that the church is failing to do, that
00:33:28.640 --> 00:33:31.640
God had to go outside of the church to find somebody
00:33:31.640 --> 00:33:34.839
to get his voice and his message out there. And
00:33:34.839 --> 00:33:38.880
what I appreciate is that she thanked Trump because
00:33:38.880 --> 00:33:42.259
it was Trump that was addressing this as an issue.
00:33:42.539 --> 00:33:45.440
And she's never talked about Trump before. I'm
00:33:45.440 --> 00:33:47.119
assuming she's not a Trump supporter just because
00:33:47.119 --> 00:33:50.099
of the circle that she's around. But I can't
00:33:50.099 --> 00:33:53.220
make that claim. There's nothing stated. What
00:33:53.220 --> 00:33:56.980
I appreciate is that she's not against this.
00:33:57.099 --> 00:33:59.299
She's not against this movement. She's still
00:33:59.299 --> 00:34:01.920
taking a stand for human rights. And she's thanking
00:34:01.920 --> 00:34:05.279
a president who allowed her to do so as opposed
00:34:05.279 --> 00:34:07.259
to, oh, well, it's coming from the Trump administration.
00:34:07.859 --> 00:34:09.920
I'm just not going to support it. You know, like
00:34:09.920 --> 00:34:13.340
she's looking at the individual policy as opposed
00:34:13.340 --> 00:34:16.380
to the man. She's looking at, you know, you might
00:34:16.380 --> 00:34:20.949
not agree with every policy, but. I think a lot
00:34:20.949 --> 00:34:22.909
of people are shutting things down, shutting
00:34:22.909 --> 00:34:26.409
down standing up for Christians in Nigeria simply
00:34:26.409 --> 00:34:30.949
because Trump made it a public issue. And that's
00:34:30.949 --> 00:34:33.389
what's crazy to me is that there's pastors who
00:34:33.389 --> 00:34:35.909
aren't looking at this as an issue because Trump
00:34:35.909 --> 00:34:41.030
was the one that made awareness to it. And that
00:34:41.030 --> 00:34:43.409
just boggles my mind is I'm not asking you to
00:34:43.409 --> 00:34:45.710
be a Trump supporter or anyone's full supporter,
00:34:45.929 --> 00:34:48.309
but stop looking at the man. Look at the individual
00:34:48.309 --> 00:34:51.989
policies. And as a Christian, select what is
00:34:51.989 --> 00:34:55.429
an important policy to support, regardless of
00:34:55.429 --> 00:34:57.969
what administration is bringing it to light.
00:34:58.230 --> 00:35:01.869
Oh, yeah. And so all that to say is Nicki Minaj,
00:35:01.889 --> 00:35:05.349
again, is doing a better job of unifying people.
00:35:05.489 --> 00:35:09.710
Her heart is unity, right? United States, United
00:35:09.710 --> 00:35:14.800
Nations. Her heart is unity. She's not... She's
00:35:14.800 --> 00:35:17.539
not standing or supporting any administration,
00:35:17.639 --> 00:35:19.420
any political group. She's saying Christians
00:35:19.420 --> 00:35:22.440
are dying in this part of the world. We need
00:35:22.440 --> 00:35:24.840
to unite, and we need to save them, and we need
00:35:24.840 --> 00:35:28.000
to bring awareness to this issue. Yep. That's
00:35:28.000 --> 00:35:30.380
it. Simple as that. And she made that very clear.
00:35:30.440 --> 00:35:32.940
This is not about choosing sides. This is a humanitarian
00:35:32.940 --> 00:35:38.440
issue. If you follow my podcast and listen to
00:35:38.440 --> 00:35:41.239
me even preach from the pulpit, you'll know that
00:35:41.239 --> 00:35:43.579
I'm not much of a Biden supporter. Never was.
00:35:44.239 --> 00:35:47.280
And now that he's out and we can kind of look,
00:35:47.360 --> 00:35:50.860
hindsight is 20 -20. I'm even less of a Biden
00:35:50.860 --> 00:35:53.780
supporter. He never said anything about this.
00:35:53.920 --> 00:35:56.099
He never brought awareness to this. He never
00:35:56.099 --> 00:35:58.980
said, hey, Nigeria, get it together. We're going
00:35:58.980 --> 00:36:00.820
to send our own troops in there to protect these
00:36:00.820 --> 00:36:02.400
Christians. He never said anything like that.
00:36:02.480 --> 00:36:05.659
It wasn't until Trump. My point is, if Biden
00:36:05.659 --> 00:36:08.099
did, that would have been at least one issue
00:36:08.099 --> 00:36:10.920
I could have supported him on. If Obama did,
00:36:10.980 --> 00:36:12.719
that would have been at least one issue I could
00:36:12.719 --> 00:36:15.659
have supported Obama on. But it seems like these
00:36:15.659 --> 00:36:19.619
liberal Democrats do not want to help, especially
00:36:19.619 --> 00:36:22.940
Christians. If it was the other way around, Christians
00:36:22.940 --> 00:36:25.260
killing Muslims, they would have sent help. The
00:36:25.260 --> 00:36:28.940
left would have sent help in 30 seconds. But
00:36:28.940 --> 00:36:32.019
because it's Muslims killing Christians, they
00:36:32.019 --> 00:36:33.679
just turn a blind eye. I don't know why that
00:36:33.679 --> 00:36:37.679
is. Because regardless, even if some Christians
00:36:37.679 --> 00:36:41.059
went nuts and started killing Muslims, just walking
00:36:41.059 --> 00:36:43.480
in and just killing them randomly like that,
00:36:43.539 --> 00:36:46.679
women and children, I'd be like, we need to stop
00:36:46.679 --> 00:36:49.219
them. And I'm a Christian. I'm not going to support
00:36:49.219 --> 00:36:53.519
non -Christian behavior just because it's coming
00:36:53.519 --> 00:36:57.989
from someone who claims to be a Christian. And
00:36:57.989 --> 00:36:59.929
it's not, you know, your claim doesn't make you
00:36:59.929 --> 00:37:03.949
that. It's what you do. So if they're doing non
00:37:03.949 --> 00:37:05.349
-Christian things, well, they're not Christian.
00:37:05.429 --> 00:37:07.949
They can claim it all day long, you know, and
00:37:07.949 --> 00:37:10.389
we need to protect people. But isn't it sad?
00:37:10.530 --> 00:37:12.929
Isn't it funny that Trump was the first president,
00:37:12.989 --> 00:37:14.570
the only president that brought this up, and
00:37:14.570 --> 00:37:17.789
it was going on since 2009, at least, probably
00:37:17.789 --> 00:37:21.309
before that. But our stats that we have on numbers
00:37:21.309 --> 00:37:27.349
are from 2009. So anyways, I fully agree. Nicki
00:37:27.349 --> 00:37:29.929
Minaj is doing a much better job than most preachers,
00:37:29.949 --> 00:37:34.429
at least in this social, cultural area of protecting
00:37:34.429 --> 00:37:38.409
Christians. Preaching the gospel? No, she didn't
00:37:38.409 --> 00:37:40.829
really preach the gospel, but she stood up for
00:37:40.829 --> 00:37:44.090
righteousness. Yes. Here's another Nicki Minaj
00:37:44.090 --> 00:37:45.829
story, and I thought this was kind of funny,
00:37:45.889 --> 00:37:48.710
so I'm going to throw it in here. Those of you
00:37:48.710 --> 00:37:53.010
who watch or pay any attention to politics, you
00:37:53.010 --> 00:37:56.050
know of Gavin Newsom, governor of California.
00:37:56.480 --> 00:37:59.079
Well, he wants to make a run for president in
00:37:59.079 --> 00:38:02.679
28, I believe. So he's really gearing up for
00:38:02.679 --> 00:38:06.460
a run for president in 28. Now, ladies and gentlemen,
00:38:06.539 --> 00:38:08.719
it doesn't matter which side of the spectrum
00:38:08.719 --> 00:38:10.880
you fall, conservative, liberal, everything.
00:38:11.000 --> 00:38:13.340
Gavin Newsom will be an absolute train wreck
00:38:13.340 --> 00:38:17.639
for this nation because he's been a train wreck
00:38:17.639 --> 00:38:20.639
for California. If you know anything about California,
00:38:20.860 --> 00:38:24.619
let's go back to the Reagan era when Reagan was
00:38:24.619 --> 00:38:27.909
governor. It was, you know, we have still, I
00:38:27.909 --> 00:38:31.369
think, the seventh, I believe, seventh. Maybe
00:38:31.369 --> 00:38:33.789
it's even better than that. Largest economy on
00:38:33.789 --> 00:38:37.769
the planet, just this one state. And if you were
00:38:37.769 --> 00:38:40.190
to go through, especially San Francisco, San
00:38:40.190 --> 00:38:43.650
Francisco, any of the big cities, San Francisco,
00:38:43.829 --> 00:38:47.550
Los Angeles, cities like that, especially those
00:38:47.550 --> 00:38:50.550
two areas. San Diego. San Diego, yeah. It's still
00:38:50.550 --> 00:38:53.699
pretty nice because it's so touristy. There are
00:38:53.699 --> 00:38:57.539
parts in San Diego that's horrible because of
00:38:57.539 --> 00:39:00.559
liberal policies that all come from Sacramento,
00:39:00.820 --> 00:39:05.539
Gavin Newsom. And this is true. You can Google
00:39:05.539 --> 00:39:09.960
this. Just Google this. Homelessness. Say, homelessness.
00:39:10.219 --> 00:39:13.219
Google this. Try this. Go on your computer, your
00:39:13.219 --> 00:39:17.159
phone, your tablet, and Google homelessness.
00:39:18.829 --> 00:39:22.030
in California and just look at some of the pictures,
00:39:22.190 --> 00:39:24.369
you will see some of the most disgusting things
00:39:24.369 --> 00:39:27.570
that Gavin Newsom passes bills and laws. Like
00:39:27.570 --> 00:39:30.210
we had just, when I say we, not me, of course,
00:39:30.329 --> 00:39:33.750
but Gavin Newsom and the Democrats, because this
00:39:33.750 --> 00:39:38.050
is a Democrat -run state, have just passed several
00:39:38.050 --> 00:39:42.849
laws. This one, I just can't even believe it.
00:39:42.909 --> 00:39:45.570
You can look this up, ladies and gentlemen. But
00:39:45.570 --> 00:39:48.440
in California now, Because of Gavin Newsom and
00:39:48.440 --> 00:39:51.820
his cronies, all Democrat, all liberals, all
00:39:51.820 --> 00:39:56.719
perverted, sick liberals have passed a law that,
00:39:56.800 --> 00:39:59.840
let's say your child is in school. Any adult.
00:40:02.300 --> 00:40:04.099
You're not going to believe this if you're outside
00:40:04.099 --> 00:40:05.739
of California. You're not going to believe this.
00:40:05.840 --> 00:40:08.920
But Google, please look this up. Basically, any
00:40:08.920 --> 00:40:12.079
adult can go into your child's school and say,
00:40:12.119 --> 00:40:14.719
I'm here to pick up. So -and -so, little Billy.
00:40:14.840 --> 00:40:19.079
And that school has to turn your child, little
00:40:19.079 --> 00:40:22.079
Billy, over to that adult. They just sign some
00:40:22.079 --> 00:40:24.500
simple papers. When I say simple papers, simple
00:40:24.500 --> 00:40:26.619
papers. Just a signature. Basically just a signature.
00:40:26.719 --> 00:40:27.500
All you have to do is claim, I know the parents.
00:40:27.559 --> 00:40:29.099
They know I'm picking them up. Yeah. That's it.
00:40:29.199 --> 00:40:31.500
And they're not even allowed to check on it.
00:40:31.679 --> 00:40:35.880
Nope. Perverts, child molesters, kidnappers,
00:40:36.059 --> 00:40:40.480
rapists can walk into a school, say, I'm here
00:40:40.480 --> 00:40:43.260
to pick up little Billy. I'm his uncle. And they
00:40:43.260 --> 00:40:47.460
have to turn that child over to that adult. And
00:40:47.460 --> 00:40:49.940
all he has to say, the only question I know is,
00:40:50.099 --> 00:40:54.179
all he has to say is, I'm here, you know, for
00:40:54.179 --> 00:40:57.260
his welfare. Like I'm here to take him to the
00:40:57.260 --> 00:40:58.800
hospital or something like that. They have to
00:40:58.800 --> 00:41:00.480
state that it's something like I'm going to take
00:41:00.480 --> 00:41:01.900
him to the hospital. I'm going to take him to
00:41:01.900 --> 00:41:03.400
his doctor appointment, dentist appointment,
00:41:03.480 --> 00:41:05.280
something like that. It has to be a kind of a
00:41:05.280 --> 00:41:07.300
quote unquote welfare. But the law is written
00:41:07.300 --> 00:41:09.679
so loosely that that's all they have to say.
00:41:09.800 --> 00:41:11.619
I'm here to pick up little Billy because I'm
00:41:11.619 --> 00:41:13.679
taking him. I know his parents and I'm taking
00:41:13.679 --> 00:41:16.320
him to his doctor appointment. They have to let
00:41:16.320 --> 00:41:19.960
him go. No questions, no phone call, no identity,
00:41:20.119 --> 00:41:24.230
nothing. That's how sick and perverted this Gavin
00:41:24.230 --> 00:41:26.130
Newsom is. Do you want that for your children
00:41:26.130 --> 00:41:28.449
in, I don't know, where you're listening, Texas?
00:41:28.650 --> 00:41:33.070
Certainly not. Minnesota? No. I mean, no decent
00:41:33.070 --> 00:41:38.030
human being wants this. Yeah, no. Only perverts
00:41:38.030 --> 00:41:42.070
and sickos want this. That's Gavin Newsom. So
00:41:42.070 --> 00:41:45.929
Nikki Benoit criticizes Gavin Newsom over comments
00:41:45.929 --> 00:41:48.610
on transgender. So here, I'm going to read you
00:41:48.610 --> 00:41:53.139
Newsom's. Quote on what he said and then Nicki
00:41:53.139 --> 00:41:57.860
Minaj's criticism. So Newsom stated, I want to
00:41:57.860 --> 00:42:00.760
see trans kids. Now listen to this, ladies and
00:42:00.760 --> 00:42:02.780
gentlemen. This is the guy that wants to be president
00:42:02.780 --> 00:42:06.280
of the United States. I want to see trans kids.
00:42:06.500 --> 00:42:10.360
I have a trans godson. There's no governor that
00:42:10.360 --> 00:42:14.010
signed more. pro -trans legislation than I have,
00:42:14.110 --> 00:42:16.449
and no one's been a stronger advocate for the
00:42:16.449 --> 00:42:21.329
LGBTQ community, he added. He added context by
00:42:21.329 --> 00:42:24.050
balancing trans rights with fairness in women's
00:42:24.050 --> 00:42:26.809
sports, saying, you have to accommodate the reality
00:42:26.809 --> 00:42:29.829
of those whose rights are being taken away as
00:42:29.829 --> 00:42:32.190
we advance the rights of the trans community
00:42:32.190 --> 00:42:35.150
in terms of the fairness of athletic competition.
00:42:35.849 --> 00:42:40.440
That's not a bigoted position, he says. So he
00:42:40.440 --> 00:42:44.039
wants to see trans kids. He wants more trans
00:42:44.039 --> 00:42:47.760
kids because he has a trans godson. And I say,
00:42:47.780 --> 00:42:50.179
like, well, so what? So that means you want to
00:42:50.179 --> 00:42:52.079
see more trans kids out there because you're
00:42:52.079 --> 00:42:55.059
a godson? Because you failed as a godfather to
00:42:55.059 --> 00:42:59.119
protect him and help him through that confusion?
00:42:59.679 --> 00:43:02.719
So his failure, he wants to see more kids failing
00:43:02.719 --> 00:43:05.059
because of his own failure. Okay, let's leave
00:43:05.059 --> 00:43:08.630
it at that. And he even brags about this, and
00:43:08.630 --> 00:43:12.070
he's such a bragger. He is such a, oh my gosh,
00:43:12.130 --> 00:43:16.010
this guy is so narcissistic. No governor, there's
00:43:16.010 --> 00:43:18.550
no governor that signed more pro -trans legislation
00:43:18.550 --> 00:43:21.949
than I have, and no one's been a stronger advocate
00:43:21.949 --> 00:43:26.050
for the LGBTQ community. Well, that's his problem.
00:43:26.710 --> 00:43:31.889
He supports the most fringe group, and in this
00:43:31.889 --> 00:43:34.650
case, those who struggle with mental illness.
00:43:35.559 --> 00:43:39.079
and prop them up as if it's like, this is the
00:43:39.079 --> 00:43:40.820
norm, and this is the way it's supposed to be,
00:43:40.960 --> 00:43:43.579
and I'm their greatest advocate. Make me president.
00:43:43.940 --> 00:43:50.639
What city was it where the fire marshal was a
00:43:50.639 --> 00:43:54.679
gay woman? And we had all of these fires. Here
00:43:54.679 --> 00:43:56.159
in California, especially where we live. In Los
00:43:56.159 --> 00:43:58.219
Angeles. Yeah, especially where we live, we suffer
00:43:58.219 --> 00:43:59.900
from a lot of fires. We have a lot of desert
00:43:59.900 --> 00:44:04.519
out here. And just due to failed safety precautions,
00:44:04.719 --> 00:44:07.199
we had extreme amount of fires. I think it was
00:44:07.199 --> 00:44:09.480
last year. I mean, it was in record numbers.
00:44:09.820 --> 00:44:13.300
And it was really just due to failed safety precautions.
00:44:13.340 --> 00:44:18.960
When they questioned this fire marshal, the argument,
00:44:19.119 --> 00:44:21.519
the offense that came from this fire marshal
00:44:21.519 --> 00:44:24.000
was, you just don't like me because I'm a gay
00:44:24.000 --> 00:44:27.340
female. And the world is looking at this. All
00:44:27.340 --> 00:44:29.139
of California is looking at it going, we don't
00:44:29.139 --> 00:44:31.639
care who you are. You just failed to do your
00:44:31.639 --> 00:44:33.980
job. But that's what Gavin Newsom is creating
00:44:33.980 --> 00:44:37.340
is you get hired into the position simply because
00:44:37.340 --> 00:44:41.360
you're LGBTQ community. That's it. No requirements.
00:44:41.460 --> 00:44:45.500
You represent a gay community. So you get hired
00:44:45.500 --> 00:44:47.800
for the position. That's what we're creating
00:44:47.800 --> 00:44:50.139
here in California. We have people who are failing
00:44:50.139 --> 00:44:53.019
at their jobs, especially first responders who
00:44:53.019 --> 00:44:57.389
should be protecting our, are failing at doing
00:44:57.389 --> 00:44:59.670
that because the only requirement was, oh, you're
00:44:59.670 --> 00:45:02.409
gay, here's the position. That's what Gavin Newsom's
00:45:02.409 --> 00:45:04.170
creating. Yeah, and there's two things with that.
00:45:04.269 --> 00:45:08.230
Number one, that's the failure of the DEI initiatives
00:45:08.230 --> 00:45:12.750
and such. She's only there because she's a lesbian.
00:45:12.889 --> 00:45:15.110
That's it. I mean, I'm not trying to even put
00:45:15.110 --> 00:45:16.869
her down. That's just the only reason. I don't
00:45:16.869 --> 00:45:19.130
know about you, ladies and gentlemen, but one
00:45:19.130 --> 00:45:21.789
of the reasons why I am so against DEI, this
00:45:21.789 --> 00:45:25.369
is just a little side note. Is one reason. If
00:45:25.369 --> 00:45:29.230
I were to get a job only because of the color
00:45:29.230 --> 00:45:31.710
of my skin or my sexual preferences, that was
00:45:31.710 --> 00:45:34.530
the only reason why I got the job. I would not
00:45:34.530 --> 00:45:37.170
feel right as a man because as a man, I want
00:45:37.170 --> 00:45:40.289
my qualifications to be what I know, what I bring
00:45:40.289 --> 00:45:43.650
to the table. Can I actually do the job? My excellence.
00:45:43.929 --> 00:45:48.030
Yeah. Not the color of my skin. I mean, so men
00:45:48.030 --> 00:45:50.909
out there that you, oh, we got to get this DEI
00:45:50.909 --> 00:45:55.139
stuff. So you want... to give up their man cards.
00:45:55.960 --> 00:45:57.780
And you know what I mean. If you're a man, you
00:45:57.780 --> 00:46:00.579
know what I'm talking about. So a man has to
00:46:00.579 --> 00:46:04.239
give up his man card, literally taken away from
00:46:04.239 --> 00:46:08.840
him when he's a DEI hire. That's it. But also
00:46:08.840 --> 00:46:12.820
what this lesbian fire chief, marshal, whatever
00:46:12.820 --> 00:46:15.860
she was, she took the money that was given to
00:46:15.860 --> 00:46:19.949
her for upgrades. and for her fire departments,
00:46:20.030 --> 00:46:23.489
and she spent most of it on DEI initiatives.
00:46:24.150 --> 00:46:27.090
Yeah, charities and initiatives, not just the
00:46:27.090 --> 00:46:31.389
actual safety of the public. Exactly. Okay, so
00:46:31.389 --> 00:46:35.630
let me read Nicki Minaj's criticism to Gavin
00:46:35.630 --> 00:46:39.369
Newsom wanting to see more trans kids. Now, I
00:46:39.369 --> 00:46:41.869
want you to think about, just for a moment, just
00:46:41.869 --> 00:46:43.590
for a moment, ladies and gentlemen, put this
00:46:43.590 --> 00:46:46.440
in your mind. Okay, you might want to stop for
00:46:46.440 --> 00:46:48.780
just a moment, close your eyes and imagine this.
00:46:49.019 --> 00:46:53.119
What kind of grown man, think about this, what
00:46:53.119 --> 00:46:59.840
kind of grown man wants to see kids, like little
00:46:59.840 --> 00:47:03.860
boys dressed as little girls, or little girls
00:47:03.860 --> 00:47:06.659
dressed as little boys? What kind of grown man
00:47:06.659 --> 00:47:10.280
cares about child sexuality, period? Yeah, that's
00:47:10.280 --> 00:47:12.949
what we call... A pedophile, ladies and gentlemen.
00:47:13.030 --> 00:47:17.210
He's admitting that he is, at minimum, struggling
00:47:17.210 --> 00:47:21.010
with pedophile tendencies. And there's still
00:47:21.010 --> 00:47:23.030
people that support him and back him up. Oh,
00:47:23.050 --> 00:47:27.289
it's disgusting. So here's Nicki Minaj's criticism
00:47:27.289 --> 00:47:29.769
to what he said. It's kind of funny, but anyways.
00:47:30.519 --> 00:47:33.139
Minaj responded, imagine being the guy running
00:47:33.139 --> 00:47:36.639
on wanting to see trans kids. Ha ha. Not even
00:47:36.639 --> 00:47:39.760
a trans adult would run on that. Normal adults
00:47:39.760 --> 00:47:42.460
wake up and think they want to see healthy, safe,
00:47:42.579 --> 00:47:47.079
happy kids. She continued mocking Newsom in additional.
00:47:47.820 --> 00:47:50.679
Post calling him the cute boy who got everything
00:47:50.679 --> 00:47:53.059
handed to him because of how cute and sexy and
00:47:53.059 --> 00:47:56.199
hot and smoking he was and predicting failure
00:47:56.199 --> 00:47:59.480
in 2028 presidential run. Now, I wouldn't go
00:47:59.480 --> 00:48:01.880
that far. I mean, I will say I'm a little jealous
00:48:01.880 --> 00:48:06.340
of his hair. But other than that, there is nothing
00:48:06.340 --> 00:48:11.639
about Gavin Newsom that I can at all in any way
00:48:11.639 --> 00:48:15.980
relate to, relate with. This is me speaking.
00:48:16.829 --> 00:48:18.869
In my opinion, and I think it's far more than
00:48:18.869 --> 00:48:21.050
opinion, he says it right out of his mouth. I
00:48:21.050 --> 00:48:24.210
want to see trans kids. I mean, that in itself
00:48:24.210 --> 00:48:30.110
is sick and perverted. Yeah, there's nothing
00:48:30.110 --> 00:48:32.630
that, you know, I wouldn't call him cute and
00:48:32.630 --> 00:48:35.829
sexy on any level other than his hair. I'm a
00:48:35.829 --> 00:48:37.769
little jealous of his hair. I used to have hair
00:48:37.769 --> 00:48:40.480
like that before I lost it all. But, you know,
00:48:40.500 --> 00:48:43.760
so I'm a little jealous of that. So Nikki, again,
00:48:44.019 --> 00:48:46.780
thank you. I didn't hear anybody. There was no
00:48:46.780 --> 00:48:49.280
quotes out there that I could find of some preacher
00:48:49.280 --> 00:48:52.179
or pastor saying that. And don't get me wrong.
00:48:52.260 --> 00:48:56.760
Listen, please. There are a lot of pastors that
00:48:56.760 --> 00:48:59.239
are saying certain things like, you know, Mark
00:48:59.239 --> 00:49:02.659
Driscoll. You may not be a fan. Maybe you are
00:49:02.659 --> 00:49:05.639
a fan. Doesn't matter. I know this, that in his.
00:49:06.690 --> 00:49:09.030
preaching and his teaching and some of the things,
00:49:09.090 --> 00:49:11.630
the little clips that I see, he deals with these
00:49:11.630 --> 00:49:16.829
things from his pulpit. So guys like that, who
00:49:16.829 --> 00:49:18.690
are some of the other ones? Oh, there's a few
00:49:18.690 --> 00:49:22.190
other ones. I'm just talking broad brush across
00:49:22.190 --> 00:49:26.530
the whole United States. There are so few that
00:49:26.530 --> 00:49:28.489
are dealing with these social issues. I mean,
00:49:28.510 --> 00:49:31.849
if you go to a church, if you're going to church
00:49:31.849 --> 00:49:34.070
regularly and you hear your pastor preaching,
00:49:34.309 --> 00:49:37.309
just do this. Think about this for just a moment.
00:49:37.429 --> 00:49:39.090
When was the last time your pastor said anything
00:49:39.090 --> 00:49:42.809
about abortion? When was the last time your pastor
00:49:42.809 --> 00:49:46.590
said anything about homosexuality? And I'm talking
00:49:46.590 --> 00:49:48.949
about from a biblical standpoint. I'm not talking
00:49:48.949 --> 00:49:51.510
about giving into it. If you go to a church with
00:49:51.510 --> 00:49:54.070
some rainbow flags, get out of that church. That's
00:49:54.070 --> 00:49:56.550
not a church. A cult. Yeah, that's a cult. That's
00:49:56.550 --> 00:49:59.150
a wicked, perverted cult. I don't care what they
00:49:59.150 --> 00:50:01.969
call it, whatever the sign is. Remember, it's
00:50:01.969 --> 00:50:03.989
not about what you call yourself. It's about
00:50:03.989 --> 00:50:07.780
what you do. do if if if the leadership of a
00:50:07.780 --> 00:50:11.619
so -called church allows or puts up rainbow flags
00:50:11.619 --> 00:50:15.059
that's not a church certainly not a church of
00:50:15.059 --> 00:50:17.619
jesus christ no if you go to a church where you
00:50:17.619 --> 00:50:20.280
can't boldly quote any aspect of the bible any
00:50:20.280 --> 00:50:22.900
aspect of it without the leadership getting offended
00:50:22.900 --> 00:50:25.880
then that's not a church because that's what
00:50:25.880 --> 00:50:29.639
a christian church is it's operating based off
00:50:29.639 --> 00:50:33.780
a biblical principle And if you pick and choose
00:50:33.780 --> 00:50:35.860
parts of the Bible that you like or don't like,
00:50:35.920 --> 00:50:39.539
that's not Christian. That's not biblical principles.
00:50:40.519 --> 00:50:43.360
So you might be going to a community gathering
00:50:43.360 --> 00:50:47.739
that picks and chooses ideas and ideologies that
00:50:47.739 --> 00:50:50.519
they like, but you cannot call it Christian.
00:50:51.119 --> 00:50:53.820
Christian is Christ followers. Christ followers
00:50:53.820 --> 00:50:56.579
are biblical followers. And if any aspect of
00:50:56.579 --> 00:50:58.460
the Bible is offensive to the leadership of that
00:50:58.460 --> 00:51:01.019
church, it's not a Christian church, period.
00:51:03.039 --> 00:51:06.659
Absolutely. Anyways, absolutely true. I'm not
00:51:06.659 --> 00:51:08.559
trying to cut her off. I'm just, ladies and gentlemen,
00:51:08.579 --> 00:51:12.019
I looked at the time and I want to get to at
00:51:12.019 --> 00:51:14.380
least this last guy because I was really kind
00:51:14.380 --> 00:51:17.679
of building up to Nicki Minaj just because of
00:51:17.679 --> 00:51:20.480
who she is and this next guy, Tom McDonald, who's
00:51:20.480 --> 00:51:24.159
also a rapper. Okay, so just to give you some
00:51:24.159 --> 00:51:28.980
contrast. Okay, so Nicki Minaj is a, I found
00:51:28.980 --> 00:51:31.869
out she's in her 40s. Now I know she's had work
00:51:31.869 --> 00:51:34.590
done, but she doesn't look 40. Anyway, so she's
00:51:34.590 --> 00:51:38.269
in her 40s. She's a rapper, not from at least
00:51:38.269 --> 00:51:41.710
rapping from a Christian mindset that I know
00:51:41.710 --> 00:51:44.909
of. I couldn't tell you one song. I think I watched
00:51:44.909 --> 00:51:48.949
half of a video maybe five years ago of one of
00:51:48.949 --> 00:51:52.010
her rap songs, and I don't really care for rap
00:51:52.010 --> 00:51:54.030
that much. Sorry, ladies and gentlemen, I just
00:51:54.030 --> 00:51:58.039
don't. But I was kind of like... you know, bothered
00:51:58.039 --> 00:51:59.820
by it just because it was like, you know, if
00:51:59.820 --> 00:52:02.059
it's not, you know, it doesn't have to, not everything
00:52:02.059 --> 00:52:05.039
has to be Christian, but I also believe that
00:52:05.039 --> 00:52:08.760
nothing, nothing has to be dirty. Nothing has
00:52:08.760 --> 00:52:11.119
to be dirty. Doesn't have to be Christian, but
00:52:11.119 --> 00:52:13.460
it doesn't have to be dirty. And in my opinion,
00:52:13.539 --> 00:52:15.659
it was a little dirty. And I'm just like, I watched
00:52:15.659 --> 00:52:18.940
maybe, maybe two minutes of this little rap video
00:52:18.940 --> 00:52:20.800
for rapping and everything. And it's just like,
00:52:20.800 --> 00:52:23.739
oh, whatever. And I turned it off. But this next
00:52:23.739 --> 00:52:27.519
guy, Tom McDonald, so she's a, 40 -year -old
00:52:27.519 --> 00:52:32.340
black rapper, a young lady. And Tom McDonald
00:52:32.340 --> 00:52:35.699
is still a rapper, but on the other end of the
00:52:35.699 --> 00:52:39.440
spectrum in this sense that he's a young white
00:52:39.440 --> 00:52:42.340
rapper. And if you see him, to me, I would never
00:52:42.340 --> 00:52:43.820
think, if I just saw him walking down the street,
00:52:43.860 --> 00:52:45.960
I wouldn't think rapper. He's got tattoos all
00:52:45.960 --> 00:52:50.519
over his face. He's got like a long, sorry, Tom,
00:52:50.619 --> 00:52:55.300
but if it's not braided, stringy. blonde hair
00:52:55.300 --> 00:52:58.079
he's a white guy with blonde hair and he and
00:52:58.079 --> 00:53:00.159
he puts those he puts his hairs in the little
00:53:00.159 --> 00:53:03.960
tiny um uh braids that hang out everywhere you
00:53:03.960 --> 00:53:07.159
know and and so he's a unique sight to see um
00:53:07.159 --> 00:53:12.840
but tom is is very he's very outspoken on uh
00:53:12.840 --> 00:53:16.219
against against liberalism the democrat party
00:53:16.219 --> 00:53:20.460
and he's doing more at reaching and reaching
00:53:20.460 --> 00:53:23.079
more people than any other preacher in certain
00:53:23.079 --> 00:53:25.239
groups and categories, like people that won't
00:53:25.239 --> 00:53:27.480
go to church. And even people that don't typically
00:53:27.480 --> 00:53:31.039
like rap listen to Tom McDonald because of the
00:53:31.039 --> 00:53:37.619
message in his songs. And he's very, you know,
00:53:37.639 --> 00:53:39.519
I don't consider it political, but people would
00:53:39.519 --> 00:53:42.219
call it political. I just call it, you know,
00:53:42.239 --> 00:53:45.570
he's telling the truth. about an issue or a situation,
00:53:45.710 --> 00:53:49.650
all of his songs. And so I want to read it. This
00:53:49.650 --> 00:53:51.889
is funny because I've seen the video of this.
00:53:52.309 --> 00:53:55.070
And the name of this song that he does is The
00:53:55.070 --> 00:53:59.949
Devil is a Democrat. Ladies and gentlemen, he
00:53:59.949 --> 00:54:03.869
gets it, and most pastors don't. He understands
00:54:03.869 --> 00:54:08.250
the wickedness of the Democrat Party. The devil
00:54:08.250 --> 00:54:13.900
is a Democrat. He understands this, what I would
00:54:13.900 --> 00:54:16.000
consider, I don't know him. Maybe he is. Maybe
00:54:16.000 --> 00:54:17.780
he's growing. Maybe he's like Russell Brand.
00:54:17.940 --> 00:54:19.679
He had to start somewhere and he's growing. I
00:54:19.679 --> 00:54:22.840
don't know. He certainly has some type of Christian
00:54:22.840 --> 00:54:25.500
background, but I don't know that he actually
00:54:25.500 --> 00:54:27.260
claims to be a Christian. Now, maybe he does.
00:54:27.380 --> 00:54:29.840
No, if you guys know different, then I'm just
00:54:29.840 --> 00:54:33.039
admitting my ignorance in that situation. I just
00:54:33.039 --> 00:54:36.000
know that some of his lyrics, not all, they're
00:54:36.000 --> 00:54:38.719
not filthy. They just use language that I...
00:54:39.260 --> 00:54:42.420
don't think is becoming of a Christian. But the
00:54:42.420 --> 00:54:47.340
overall message in most of his rap songs are
00:54:47.340 --> 00:54:52.019
right on and reaching a group of people that
00:54:52.019 --> 00:54:54.780
otherwise, well, preachers would probably never
00:54:54.780 --> 00:54:56.659
reach. They're not running to your church, ladies
00:54:56.659 --> 00:54:58.219
and gentlemen. They're not running to your church,
00:54:58.300 --> 00:55:01.579
preacher. And rapper Tom McDonald is doing a
00:55:01.579 --> 00:55:04.940
much better job than even I am. We are. I just
00:55:04.940 --> 00:55:07.500
have to be honest. I'm not reaching these people.
00:55:09.589 --> 00:55:13.730
Have you seen the video to this? I think I might
00:55:13.730 --> 00:55:15.510
have. At least I've seen clips of it. I'm going
00:55:15.510 --> 00:55:18.010
to read these. And as I'm doing it, just pull
00:55:18.010 --> 00:55:21.190
it up quietly so you can watch it. Because we're
00:55:21.190 --> 00:55:24.030
going to make some commentary on it on the video
00:55:24.030 --> 00:55:26.429
as well. As a matter of fact, I think I'm going
00:55:26.429 --> 00:55:28.670
to bring it up if I can do this. No, you better
00:55:28.670 --> 00:55:31.369
just do it yourself. Anyways, the devil is a
00:55:31.369 --> 00:55:34.469
Democrat. uh by tom mcdonald here's the lyrics
00:55:34.469 --> 00:55:37.489
the propaganda is on every channel they think
00:55:37.489 --> 00:55:39.949
we stupid like the truth is just too hard to
00:55:39.949 --> 00:55:43.210
handle put on your camo it's a culture war and
00:55:43.210 --> 00:55:46.389
load the ammo they want antifa ruling everything
00:55:46.389 --> 00:55:50.380
like it's seattle Then they want anyone who's
00:55:50.380 --> 00:55:53.760
fighting to be dead or canceled. They want rainbows
00:55:53.760 --> 00:55:57.559
in the classroom and 15 bathrooms and white guys
00:55:57.559 --> 00:56:00.460
that hate black dudes. They want war. They don't
00:56:00.460 --> 00:56:02.920
want peace. They want fentanyl in our streets.
00:56:03.119 --> 00:56:06.400
They want borders to be weak. I swear the devil
00:56:06.400 --> 00:56:09.719
lives in California. He's a politician. He's
00:56:09.719 --> 00:56:12.199
passing bills that bring chaos and division.
00:56:12.539 --> 00:56:15.340
Yeah, the devil is in California. Should be in
00:56:15.340 --> 00:56:20.750
prison. He got horns. But he tries to keep them
00:56:20.750 --> 00:56:24.309
hidden. Or tries, I'm sorry. It says tires. Anyways,
00:56:24.530 --> 00:56:27.530
that was bad. He tries to keep them hidden because
00:56:27.530 --> 00:56:30.289
the devil is a Democrat. And we don't play that.
00:56:30.550 --> 00:56:34.170
They say that they love America. We know it ain't
00:56:34.170 --> 00:56:39.230
that because the devil is a Democrat. I'm sorry,
00:56:39.329 --> 00:56:42.389
ladies and gentlemen. I'm trying to read rapper
00:56:42.389 --> 00:56:47.239
lingo here. As I'm remembering the video and
00:56:47.239 --> 00:56:49.420
getting new images as I'm getting through this.
00:56:49.480 --> 00:56:52.179
So anyways, I'm going to do my best. And we ain't
00:56:52.179 --> 00:56:55.360
with it. We ain't switching. Y 'all are tripping.
00:56:55.480 --> 00:56:58.639
I guess God just built us different. They get
00:56:58.639 --> 00:57:02.539
celebrities to do their talking. They get mansions
00:57:02.539 --> 00:57:05.400
while they cram us all in apartments. Tell us
00:57:05.400 --> 00:57:08.159
it's cool to stay in school, then make you retarded.
00:57:10.360 --> 00:57:12.960
And I'm sorry, that's the truth, ladies and gentlemen.
00:57:13.039 --> 00:57:15.599
If you ain't liberal, then they treat you like
00:57:15.599 --> 00:57:20.159
you human garbage. If you speak up, then you
00:57:20.159 --> 00:57:22.699
a target. They want their voice through an amplifier.
00:57:23.019 --> 00:57:27.440
Violence in our flag on fire. No voter ID required.
00:57:27.699 --> 00:57:30.360
They want war. They don't want peace. They want...
00:57:30.619 --> 00:57:33.179
to defund the police. They want you surrounded
00:57:33.179 --> 00:57:36.119
by screens. The devil lives in California. He
00:57:36.119 --> 00:57:38.940
a politician. He passing bills that bring chaos
00:57:38.940 --> 00:57:41.260
and division. Yeah, the devil lives in California,
00:57:41.519 --> 00:57:45.440
should be in prison. He got horns, but he tries
00:57:45.440 --> 00:57:48.059
to keep them hidden because the devil is a Democrat.
00:57:48.360 --> 00:57:51.400
And we don't play that. They say that they love
00:57:51.400 --> 00:57:54.659
America. We know it ain't that because the devil
00:57:54.659 --> 00:57:59.369
is a Democrat and we all ain't with it. We ain't
00:57:59.369 --> 00:58:02.469
switching. Y 'all be tripping. I guess God just
00:58:02.469 --> 00:58:05.349
built us different. Dog, the devil is a Democrat.
00:58:05.929 --> 00:58:08.550
That's a fact. That's the truth. Look how bad
00:58:08.550 --> 00:58:11.969
that it gets when it's blue. And you know what's
00:58:11.969 --> 00:58:13.510
so funny, ladies and gentlemen? I have a little
00:58:13.510 --> 00:58:16.989
bit more to read. This is so true. I'm trying
00:58:16.989 --> 00:58:20.869
to get past the wit and the day and the damn
00:58:20.869 --> 00:58:22.829
and the, you know, all that. It is funny hearing
00:58:22.829 --> 00:58:26.739
you try to read this. I know. It takes me back
00:58:26.739 --> 00:58:30.860
to my redneck days. So the devil is a Democrat.
00:58:31.260 --> 00:58:33.900
That's a wrap. It ain't news. And the way they
00:58:33.900 --> 00:58:36.480
treat in America is proof. I swear the devil
00:58:36.480 --> 00:58:39.059
lives in California. Hundred dollar bills. He
00:58:39.059 --> 00:58:41.840
knows everyone in Hollywood, in parties and the
00:58:41.840 --> 00:58:44.599
hills. Give you everything you ever want. And
00:58:44.599 --> 00:58:48.340
plus a couple mil for your soul and your vote.
00:58:48.860 --> 00:58:51.579
It's a deal because the devil is a Democrat and
00:58:51.579 --> 00:58:55.090
we don't play that. They say that they love America.
00:58:55.170 --> 00:58:57.570
We know it ain't that because the devil is a
00:58:57.570 --> 00:59:00.269
Democrat and we ain't with it. We ain't switching.
00:59:00.510 --> 00:59:02.949
Y 'all are tripping. I guess God just built us
00:59:02.949 --> 00:59:05.269
different. Dog, the devil is a Democrat and we
00:59:05.269 --> 00:59:07.670
don't play that. They say that they love America.
00:59:07.809 --> 00:59:09.769
We know it ain't that because the devil is a
00:59:09.769 --> 00:59:12.250
Democrat. We ain't with it. We ain't switching.
00:59:12.429 --> 00:59:14.489
Y 'all are tripping. I guess God just built us
00:59:14.489 --> 00:59:18.750
different. Dog, the devil is a Democrat. I'm
00:59:18.750 --> 00:59:21.110
sorry, ladies and gentlemen. I'm trying not to
00:59:21.110 --> 00:59:23.530
laugh at it. I'm trying to read words that it's
00:59:23.530 --> 00:59:27.550
like, this is one reason why I don't like, not
00:59:27.550 --> 00:59:30.090
the only reason. I'm just not like a rap guy.
00:59:30.269 --> 00:59:33.650
And I like Tom McDonald, you know, as far as
00:59:33.650 --> 00:59:36.550
that goes, you know, because he's saying, you
00:59:36.550 --> 00:59:39.289
know, in ways that I find funny and hard to read,
00:59:39.309 --> 00:59:41.789
but he's saying it to a group of people and he's
00:59:41.789 --> 00:59:44.769
telling you the truth. Yes. You're telling the
00:59:44.769 --> 00:59:47.530
absolute truth. Now, did you watch the video?
00:59:47.630 --> 00:59:49.550
Were you able to see the image? Yeah. Who was
00:59:49.550 --> 00:59:52.610
in it a lot? Well, it was Tom McDonald. Tom McDonald,
00:59:52.750 --> 00:59:56.250
but I mean, who was the devil in it? Oh, I didn't
00:59:56.250 --> 00:59:58.829
see that part. Oh, you got to see it. As she
00:59:58.829 --> 01:00:02.989
looks that up, ladies and gentlemen, I'll give
01:00:02.989 --> 01:00:05.619
it away. Because she's looking at it right now.
01:00:06.119 --> 01:00:09.480
Where's it at? I don't know. I just watched it
01:00:09.480 --> 01:00:11.760
once or twice. And anyway, somewhere in there,
01:00:11.780 --> 01:00:13.760
they're going to show Gavin Newsom with horns
01:00:13.760 --> 01:00:17.340
as the devil. And so that's who he's alluding
01:00:17.340 --> 01:00:21.460
to in the lyrics. The devil's Democrat. He's
01:00:21.460 --> 01:00:24.059
a politician. He lives in California. He's passing
01:00:24.059 --> 01:00:27.519
bills. And so he's just hammering that. You know
01:00:27.519 --> 01:00:29.599
what? That might not be the original or the video
01:00:29.599 --> 01:00:33.719
that I saw. Maybe. Maybe it is. It's from his
01:00:33.719 --> 01:00:36.639
page. Yeah. It might be. You have to watch the
01:00:36.639 --> 01:00:38.980
whole thing. Unless somebody did another one.
01:00:39.219 --> 01:00:41.420
But nonetheless, ladies and gentlemen, again,
01:00:41.539 --> 01:00:44.099
here's a rapper that, to the best of my knowledge,
01:00:44.360 --> 01:00:47.519
doesn't claim to be Christian. I know you can
01:00:47.519 --> 01:00:50.639
tell he has a Christian background and influence,
01:00:50.760 --> 01:00:53.860
at least. But I don't know that he claims to
01:00:53.860 --> 01:00:57.619
be Christian. Doing a better job. with social
01:00:57.619 --> 01:01:00.239
issues in the state, especially in the state
01:01:00.239 --> 01:01:04.719
of California, but in politics in general, then
01:01:04.719 --> 01:01:07.960
most preachers, I'm just going to be honest with
01:01:07.960 --> 01:01:09.980
you, most preachers do not have the courage.
01:01:10.300 --> 01:01:12.880
And preachers, I hope a lot of preachers listen
01:01:12.880 --> 01:01:16.460
to this. Secondly, I hope a lot of Christians
01:01:16.460 --> 01:01:18.980
listen to this. Not because I'm only trying to
01:01:18.980 --> 01:01:22.039
target Christians and ministers, but you need
01:01:22.039 --> 01:01:26.570
to hear this. Pastors, most church leaders, most
01:01:26.570 --> 01:01:29.690
preachers do not have the courage or the backbone
01:01:29.690 --> 01:01:34.869
to say openly what Tom McDonald makes rap music
01:01:34.869 --> 01:01:37.090
and gets it out there before millions of people
01:01:37.090 --> 01:01:39.730
puts out videos what he's willing to say. Come
01:01:39.730 --> 01:01:42.630
on. Most of you preachers won't say any of that
01:01:42.630 --> 01:01:46.710
from your pulpit of 100 people. He says it to
01:01:46.710 --> 01:01:48.929
millions. And you could find that on YouTube.
01:01:48.989 --> 01:01:51.590
You could find it different areas. And it's just
01:01:51.590 --> 01:01:53.650
growing and growing and growing. And he does
01:01:53.650 --> 01:01:55.949
it without any problem. Does he have backlash?
01:01:56.150 --> 01:01:58.550
Well, of course he does. But some of you preachers
01:01:58.550 --> 01:02:01.230
are so cowardly and so weak that you are so afraid
01:02:01.230 --> 01:02:03.809
of the backlash. But here's a rapper who doesn't
01:02:03.809 --> 01:02:06.309
even claim to be Christian that I know of doing
01:02:06.309 --> 01:02:10.030
a much better job at it than you. Again, ladies
01:02:10.030 --> 01:02:12.110
and gentlemen, please, not all preachers, not
01:02:12.110 --> 01:02:13.429
all pastors. You might be sitting there going
01:02:13.429 --> 01:02:16.610
angry at me and going, my pastor talks about
01:02:16.610 --> 01:02:19.210
it. Okay, that's your pastor. Good. But that's
01:02:19.210 --> 01:02:22.150
like one in probably 10 ,000. Eh, maybe not that
01:02:22.150 --> 01:02:24.449
much. There might be a few more. But the odds
01:02:24.449 --> 01:02:26.929
are not very good in our favor, ladies and gentlemen,
01:02:27.010 --> 01:02:30.630
of preachers that just are willing to tell the
01:02:30.630 --> 01:02:32.989
hardcore truth about what's going on out there.
01:02:33.210 --> 01:02:35.250
Yeah. And those pastors, ladies and gentlemen,
01:02:35.389 --> 01:02:38.170
they're just after your money. Yeah. If they're
01:02:38.170 --> 01:02:39.929
not willing to do that, I don't want to offend
01:02:39.929 --> 01:02:42.750
anybody. Oh, so what you're really afraid of
01:02:42.750 --> 01:02:44.849
is them getting mad leaving your church and not
01:02:44.849 --> 01:02:47.400
giving the tithe check. Yep. They don't care
01:02:47.400 --> 01:02:48.760
about your soul. They don't care about where
01:02:48.760 --> 01:02:50.599
you're going. They don't care about you getting
01:02:50.599 --> 01:02:52.980
closer to God, which is what they should. They
01:02:52.980 --> 01:02:56.019
care about you giving your tithe to that church.
01:02:56.219 --> 01:03:00.280
You come in, you feel good, and you leave your
01:03:00.280 --> 01:03:01.920
check. You leave your paycheck there. You leave
01:03:01.920 --> 01:03:04.360
your tithe there. And that's all they care about.
01:03:04.440 --> 01:03:09.349
It just goes back to... You know, the word of
01:03:09.349 --> 01:03:10.949
God, which is, you know, part of the Big Ten,
01:03:11.050 --> 01:03:12.869
do not take the Lord's name in vain. You have
01:03:12.869 --> 01:03:14.630
pastors taking the Lord's name in vain from the
01:03:14.630 --> 01:03:16.730
pulpit daily in their lifestyle and what they
01:03:16.730 --> 01:03:19.090
say and what they teach, saying, thus saith the
01:03:19.090 --> 01:03:23.010
Lord. When God never said any of that, when it's
01:03:23.010 --> 01:03:26.219
not biblical, it's not, it's just. Like I said,
01:03:26.280 --> 01:03:28.340
if you're going to a church where any aspect
01:03:28.340 --> 01:03:30.380
of the Bible, any aspect of the Bible offends
01:03:30.380 --> 01:03:32.739
the leadership, you are not going to a Christian
01:03:32.739 --> 01:03:36.320
church. Right. And that always bothered me. Okay,
01:03:36.380 --> 01:03:37.920
ladies and gentlemen, just for time's sake, I'm
01:03:37.920 --> 01:03:41.699
going to deal with one last thing, but I'm not
01:03:41.699 --> 01:03:43.860
going to get into this one. I really wanted to
01:03:43.860 --> 01:03:45.820
bring about, well, you know what? Forget it.
01:03:46.159 --> 01:03:47.940
We'll just make it long. If you have to listen
01:03:47.940 --> 01:03:54.619
to this in two or three segments, do. gentleman
01:03:54.619 --> 01:03:57.099
that i want to talk about next is josh holly
01:03:57.099 --> 01:03:59.679
who is a politician let me just read a little
01:03:59.679 --> 01:04:03.880
bit about josh holly joshua david holly born
01:04:03.880 --> 01:04:07.119
uh december 31st oh his birthday is coming up
01:04:07.119 --> 01:04:09.960
december 31st in 1979 is an american politician
01:04:09.960 --> 01:04:13.280
and attorney now think about this this is a politician
01:04:13.280 --> 01:04:19.789
and an attorney the two um if you will, jobs
01:04:19.789 --> 01:04:24.210
or careers, the two fields that you do not think
01:04:24.210 --> 01:04:27.110
about being very Christian. He's an attorney
01:04:27.110 --> 01:04:33.150
and a politician. So keep that in mind as I read
01:04:33.150 --> 01:04:35.329
the rest of this. Anyway, so he's serving as
01:04:35.329 --> 01:04:38.250
a senior United States Senator from Missouri,
01:04:38.409 --> 01:04:41.750
a seat he has held since 2019, member of the
01:04:41.750 --> 01:04:45.360
Republican Party. I'm sorry, Parley. I was just
01:04:45.360 --> 01:04:47.099
looking at his name, Hawley, and I mixed him
01:04:47.099 --> 01:04:51.679
up. Hawley served as the 42nd Attorney General
01:04:51.679 --> 01:04:55.579
of Missouri from 2017 to 2019 before defeating
01:04:55.579 --> 01:04:58.480
two -term incumbent Democratic Senator Claire
01:04:58.480 --> 01:05:02.860
McCaskill in 2018. He was elected, or re -elected,
01:05:02.860 --> 01:05:06.500
I'm sorry, in 2024. Senator Josh Hawley's Christian
01:05:06.500 --> 01:05:09.519
manhood secrets. Now, this is a message that
01:05:09.519 --> 01:05:14.920
he gave. He gave this. message and uh so he's
01:05:14.920 --> 01:05:16.639
basically preaching he's preaching the god not
01:05:16.639 --> 01:05:19.260
basically he's preaching the gospel a politician
01:05:19.260 --> 01:05:22.679
and an attorney the two fields that you don't
01:05:22.679 --> 01:05:24.820
think are very christians like i've heard a lot
01:05:24.820 --> 01:05:26.880
of people say over the years and you know question
01:05:26.880 --> 01:05:30.360
and and comment and make jokes mostly jokes you
01:05:30.360 --> 01:05:33.059
know can an attorney even be saved can a lawyer
01:05:33.059 --> 01:05:35.340
be saved can a politician they're certainly not
01:05:35.340 --> 01:05:40.019
you know we know this The devil is a Democrat.
01:05:40.139 --> 01:05:44.739
He's a politician. Josh Hawley is still a politician,
01:05:44.840 --> 01:05:48.039
but on the other end of that. Okay, he is certainly
01:05:48.039 --> 01:05:51.599
not a Gavin Newsom. Anyway, so Senator Josh Hawley's
01:05:51.599 --> 01:05:54.260
Christian manhood secrets of a meaningful life
01:05:54.260 --> 01:05:58.099
speech delivered October 5th, 2025. So this was
01:05:58.099 --> 01:06:00.860
not too long ago. This is October 5th of this
01:06:00.860 --> 01:06:04.380
year, 2025. Draws from 1 Samuel chapter 30 to
01:06:04.380 --> 01:06:07.219
emphasize strengthening oneself in the Lord through
01:06:07.219 --> 01:06:10.159
surrender. particularly in moments of crisis
01:06:10.159 --> 01:06:13.119
like David's after the destruction of Ziklag.
01:06:13.300 --> 01:06:15.860
And you can actually find this on YouTube, as
01:06:15.860 --> 01:06:19.300
it says. The core message on manhood. The core
01:06:19.300 --> 01:06:22.059
message is on manhood, which is something that
01:06:22.059 --> 01:06:24.519
needs to be addressed more and more and more
01:06:24.519 --> 01:06:27.719
and more and more and more. Hawley stresses that
01:06:27.719 --> 01:06:30.000
true Christian manhood involves leadership in
01:06:30.000 --> 01:06:33.119
family, work, and society by grounding in God.
01:06:33.679 --> 01:06:35.920
During isolation, he shares a personal story
01:06:35.920 --> 01:06:37.940
of his sophomore year in college, fasting and
01:06:37.940 --> 01:06:40.900
praying during Lent, kneeling before God, and
01:06:40.900 --> 01:06:43.820
experiencing overwhelming love that led to full
01:06:43.820 --> 01:06:47.480
surrender. What he wanted from me was my surrender
01:06:47.480 --> 01:06:50.539
to him. This is a quote from Holly. What he wanted
01:06:50.539 --> 01:06:52.579
from me was surrender to him. Lord, I want to
01:06:52.579 --> 01:06:56.960
give you all my life. Key transcription experts,
01:06:57.320 --> 01:07:01.699
or excerpts, on crisis and turning to God, there
01:07:01.699 --> 01:07:03.900
comes a time when there's really nowhere else
01:07:03.900 --> 01:07:06.639
to look to. It's just you and the Lord. We have
01:07:06.639 --> 01:07:09.820
to decide what to do in these critical moments.
01:07:10.519 --> 01:07:13.320
How do we strengthen ourselves in the Lord? Again,
01:07:13.400 --> 01:07:16.070
you can find us all on YouTube. David's example,
01:07:16.289 --> 01:07:18.889
they had overcome Ziklag and burned it with fire.
01:07:18.969 --> 01:07:22.210
There is no one to turn to but to the Lord. Surrender
01:07:22.210 --> 01:07:24.750
as a key. In order to strengthen yourself in
01:07:24.750 --> 01:07:26.849
the Lord, you have to surrender yourself to the
01:07:26.849 --> 01:07:29.789
Lord. He started first by pouring his love into
01:07:29.789 --> 01:07:33.949
my heart. Job reference, before my ears had heard,
01:07:34.110 --> 01:07:38.190
but now my eyes have seen and I repent. So that's
01:07:38.190 --> 01:07:41.769
the book of Job. Application to manhood. Holly
01:07:41.769 --> 01:07:46.710
tries. ties this to manhood as self -denial,
01:07:46.730 --> 01:07:50.530
war on sin, and sacrifice. Echoing themes from
01:07:50.530 --> 01:07:54.090
his Liberty University talk, true manhood is
01:07:54.090 --> 01:07:58.250
the denial of self. It is a war on sin. It is
01:07:58.250 --> 01:08:02.010
sacrifice for other people. And again, the full
01:08:02.010 --> 01:08:05.269
30 -plus minute video provides complete context,
01:08:05.309 --> 01:08:10.809
and you can find that video on YouTube. Now,
01:08:10.829 --> 01:08:12.849
again, I wanted to bring that out because here's
01:08:12.849 --> 01:08:15.610
a politician and an attorney. He's an attorney,
01:08:15.670 --> 01:08:18.109
a lawyer, attorney, and a politician preaching
01:08:18.109 --> 01:08:20.810
better than most preachers preach in the pulpit.
01:08:20.930 --> 01:08:23.250
And that was just the excerpts. I've heard him
01:08:23.250 --> 01:08:26.310
before preaching the gospel and telling people
01:08:26.310 --> 01:08:30.229
to turn to Christ as a politician. You see, so
01:08:30.229 --> 01:08:33.050
this whole thing that you, and I heard even pastors
01:08:33.050 --> 01:08:34.470
and preachers say, well, we got the separation
01:08:34.470 --> 01:08:38.130
of church and state. If you quote that that way.
01:08:38.560 --> 01:08:40.800
You have no idea what you're even talking about.
01:08:41.399 --> 01:08:44.439
Just so you know, the separation of church and
01:08:44.439 --> 01:08:46.880
state, that phrase is not found in our Constitution.
01:08:47.039 --> 01:08:49.300
It was in a personal letter, Thomas Jefferson
01:08:49.300 --> 01:08:54.079
to a friend. The actual, the Constitution says
01:08:54.079 --> 01:08:57.779
that the government is not to establish a religion.
01:08:57.960 --> 01:09:02.060
It doesn't say that we can't bring politics into
01:09:02.060 --> 01:09:05.840
our churches, and it certainly doesn't say we
01:09:05.840 --> 01:09:10.550
can't bring religion. or Bible, or God into politics.
01:09:10.670 --> 01:09:13.329
It just says, Congress, our government, shall
01:09:13.329 --> 01:09:16.750
not establish kind of a national religion as
01:09:16.750 --> 01:09:19.850
they were running from when they ran from England
01:09:19.850 --> 01:09:22.529
and King George, or King James, I'm sorry, it
01:09:22.529 --> 01:09:24.489
was King James, I believe. That's what it's talking
01:09:24.489 --> 01:09:27.770
about. The separation of church and state doesn't
01:09:27.770 --> 01:09:32.810
exist. It was a personal letter. From Thomas
01:09:32.810 --> 01:09:35.649
Jefferson, where he quotes that, or he says that.
01:09:35.750 --> 01:09:39.670
There is no separation. Look it up, ladies and
01:09:39.670 --> 01:09:41.850
gentlemen. I don't know why, especially preachers,
01:09:41.970 --> 01:09:44.329
you all aren't doing your research. You aren't
01:09:44.329 --> 01:09:47.890
looking it up. And I'll hear it again. You watch.
01:09:48.750 --> 01:09:50.829
Some preacher is going to say something stupid
01:09:50.829 --> 01:09:54.409
and quote, separation of church and state. And
01:09:54.409 --> 01:09:56.609
I'm going to sit back with my hands slapped against
01:09:56.609 --> 01:09:59.149
my forehead. Wow, I should have had a V8 moment
01:09:59.149 --> 01:10:02.289
going, what an idiot. And they're going to try
01:10:02.289 --> 01:10:05.050
to sound so smart, like they know it. So ladies
01:10:05.050 --> 01:10:07.050
and gentlemen, especially you preachers, if your
01:10:07.050 --> 01:10:09.170
pastor is saying that, you know, I'm not telling
01:10:09.170 --> 01:10:10.949
you to leave your church. I don't necessarily
01:10:10.949 --> 01:10:13.489
tell people that unless I know a particular church
01:10:13.489 --> 01:10:16.909
is in gross sin and it's non -repentant. Then,
01:10:16.989 --> 01:10:19.310
yeah, I'll tell you, leave that church. I'm not
01:10:19.310 --> 01:10:21.359
telling you to leave your church. I'm just saying
01:10:21.359 --> 01:10:24.739
maybe you need to pray about it seriously. Seriously,
01:10:24.859 --> 01:10:27.140
seriously, seriously pray about it. Go up there
01:10:27.140 --> 01:10:29.380
and make a, you know, schedule a meeting with
01:10:29.380 --> 01:10:32.020
your pastor and say, hey, why did you say this
01:10:32.020 --> 01:10:34.020
when this is not even constitutional? And bring
01:10:34.020 --> 01:10:36.779
the actual quote. Bring a copy of the Constitution
01:10:36.779 --> 01:10:40.579
and show him what it actually says. Well, you
01:10:40.579 --> 01:10:44.340
know, churches don't, not supposed to get. political,
01:10:44.439 --> 01:10:47.460
then actually look up the meaning of the word
01:10:47.460 --> 01:10:50.520
church. And in the original, it's ecclesia. And
01:10:50.520 --> 01:10:53.899
the word ecclesia literally means it's a political
01:10:53.899 --> 01:10:57.520
word for assembly. It's a political assembly.
01:10:58.399 --> 01:11:01.119
Look it up, ladies and gentlemen. And if he goes
01:11:01.119 --> 01:11:03.140
so far as to say, oh, the church is not supposed
01:11:03.140 --> 01:11:08.180
to be political, then sit down with him, bring
01:11:08.180 --> 01:11:12.050
it. written out so he can read it for himself.
01:11:12.069 --> 01:11:13.449
He didn't even have to take your word for it.
01:11:13.470 --> 01:11:15.930
He can read it for himself. Heck, read the Bible
01:11:15.930 --> 01:11:17.710
for yourself and print up scripture along with
01:11:17.710 --> 01:11:21.029
it. Yeah, yeah. And everyone misquotes Paul.
01:11:21.470 --> 01:11:24.470
Yes, follow the laws of the land, but also Paul
01:11:24.470 --> 01:11:28.189
went before Caesar to change the laws of the
01:11:28.189 --> 01:11:31.909
land. Yep, yep. So yeah, he understood you have
01:11:31.909 --> 01:11:33.550
to follow the laws of the land. And if you don't
01:11:33.550 --> 01:11:35.380
like the laws... Let's go before the leaders
01:11:35.380 --> 01:11:37.779
and let's go address this. Paul was very political.
01:11:37.939 --> 01:11:41.340
He went before Caesar himself. Jesus is a king.
01:11:41.760 --> 01:11:44.300
King, ladies and gentlemen. A king. King. And
01:11:44.300 --> 01:11:47.100
he's told us in the scriptures that we are kings
01:11:47.100 --> 01:11:49.720
as well. You can't get more political than a
01:11:49.720 --> 01:11:54.079
king. Anyways, that's another podcast right there.
01:11:54.119 --> 01:11:55.460
Oh, yeah, for sure. And we'll do that one soon.
01:11:55.859 --> 01:11:58.539
I did one similar a long time ago, but I'm going
01:11:58.539 --> 01:12:01.840
to redo it because people need to keep hearing
01:12:01.840 --> 01:12:04.989
this. Anyways, the last thing I want to touch
01:12:04.989 --> 01:12:08.689
upon, and this was absolutely so moving, and
01:12:08.689 --> 01:12:11.590
there's too many speakers in this. That was Charlie
01:12:11.590 --> 01:12:14.329
Kirk's memorial. You guys, everybody should know
01:12:14.329 --> 01:12:18.350
Charlie Kirk. He is the founder of TPUSA, Turning
01:12:18.350 --> 01:12:23.670
Point USA, political. I wrote up here a conservative
01:12:23.670 --> 01:12:26.890
political activist. He was, but he was so much
01:12:26.890 --> 01:12:30.029
more. He was a political analyst and so much
01:12:30.029 --> 01:12:34.189
more. He built. He established TPUSA by going
01:12:34.189 --> 01:12:37.130
to college campuses to speak to students about
01:12:37.130 --> 01:12:41.010
world political issues. And he had always been
01:12:41.010 --> 01:12:42.970
a Christian or claimed to be a Christian, but
01:12:42.970 --> 01:12:45.569
never, just kind of a nominal Christian way back
01:12:45.569 --> 01:12:48.590
in the day. And then the last few years, he really,
01:12:48.689 --> 01:12:51.569
when I say he got strong in his faith, he would
01:12:51.569 --> 01:12:54.789
go, still go to these college campuses, debate,
01:12:55.010 --> 01:12:57.470
talk, share with these young people, and he would
01:12:57.470 --> 01:13:00.520
give them equal time. He would have a microphone
01:13:00.520 --> 01:13:02.739
set up. He would be at a table with a microphone,
01:13:02.819 --> 01:13:04.399
and he would set them up with a microphone. They
01:13:04.399 --> 01:13:07.579
could ask him anything, and they would get into
01:13:07.579 --> 01:13:10.659
some, sometimes it was debate. I don't want to
01:13:10.659 --> 01:13:12.699
say, I mean, some of it looked like argument,
01:13:12.739 --> 01:13:16.340
but Charlie was always just on point and not
01:13:16.340 --> 01:13:20.079
giving in to the nonsense. But what he would
01:13:20.079 --> 01:13:23.039
always do, regardless of what the actual conversation
01:13:23.039 --> 01:13:26.000
was about, he would bring Christ into it. So
01:13:26.000 --> 01:13:29.020
he was preaching the gospel. sometimes all day
01:13:29.020 --> 01:13:32.399
long, over and over and over and over again on
01:13:32.399 --> 01:13:35.939
these college campuses for these college students.
01:13:36.140 --> 01:13:40.420
And he would debate and speak to the professors,
01:13:40.500 --> 01:13:42.619
and he would invite them, come and speak, you
01:13:42.619 --> 01:13:47.720
know, professors, students, faculty, and they
01:13:47.720 --> 01:13:50.960
all heard the gospel of Jesus Christ. Charlie
01:13:50.960 --> 01:13:54.739
Kirk, who began as a conservative political activist,
01:13:54.979 --> 01:13:59.130
political analyst, And just going to college
01:13:59.130 --> 01:14:00.989
campuses, when I say just, I mean, that's a great
01:14:00.989 --> 01:14:03.710
thing, but going to college campuses to speak
01:14:03.710 --> 01:14:06.350
to students about world and political issues
01:14:06.350 --> 01:14:08.989
became one of the greatest preachers of our time.
01:14:09.630 --> 01:14:15.489
And sadly, he was assassinated. Yep. Assassinated
01:14:15.489 --> 01:14:19.810
for this. Ladies and gentlemen. A completely
01:14:19.810 --> 01:14:24.029
innocent man. Yeah. And a great man. And the
01:14:24.029 --> 01:14:27.399
left. Since before that, but now especially after
01:14:27.399 --> 01:14:29.720
he's dead because he can't counter it, he's not
01:14:29.720 --> 01:14:33.939
around to defend himself. Oh, he was a racist.
01:14:34.060 --> 01:14:37.079
No, he wasn't. Not at all. Oh, he was a bigot.
01:14:37.079 --> 01:14:40.199
No, he wasn't. Oh, he was, you know, no. He was
01:14:40.199 --> 01:14:46.159
a solid, solid, true, what I would say is a true
01:14:46.159 --> 01:14:48.500
American. Yes. Because he was a believer in Jesus
01:14:48.500 --> 01:14:51.800
Christ. He was a believer in this country, not
01:14:51.800 --> 01:14:53.739
necessarily our government, but our country,
01:14:53.840 --> 01:14:56.699
and he was a believer in the people of this country,
01:14:56.779 --> 01:14:59.640
that all they needed is the truth, and he did
01:14:59.640 --> 01:15:02.100
his best to give it to them, and he was assassinated
01:15:02.100 --> 01:15:06.359
for it. Well, they had his funeral memorial in
01:15:06.359 --> 01:15:09.140
the state that he lived in, which is Arizona,
01:15:09.560 --> 01:15:13.460
in a stadium, and it was packed. Again, my daughter
01:15:13.460 --> 01:15:16.180
works for TPUSA, and she was working that event,
01:15:16.359 --> 01:15:20.130
the memorial, and it was packed. Packed, packed,
01:15:20.170 --> 01:15:23.289
packed. And of course, they had many speakers.
01:15:24.569 --> 01:15:27.590
Erica Kirk, his wife, President Donald Trump,
01:15:27.869 --> 01:15:31.710
Vice President J .D. Vance, Marco Rubio, Robert
01:15:31.710 --> 01:15:34.710
F. Kennedy, Donald Trump Jr., Tucker Carlson,
01:15:34.770 --> 01:15:37.510
and there was a bunch more. But those are just
01:15:37.510 --> 01:15:39.770
some of the names of the people that came out
01:15:39.770 --> 01:15:42.550
to pay him respect. And you know what was so
01:15:42.550 --> 01:15:44.090
interesting, ladies and gentlemen? You can do,
01:15:44.130 --> 01:15:46.920
check this out. If you haven't seen it. Find
01:15:46.920 --> 01:15:48.939
it on YouTube or something, Charlie Kirsch Memorial,
01:15:49.199 --> 01:15:50.560
and watch the whole thing. It's long. I'm not
01:15:50.560 --> 01:15:52.619
going to lie to you. It's very long. And listen
01:15:52.619 --> 01:15:56.840
to every one of those speakers, what they said
01:15:56.840 --> 01:15:59.819
and how they said it. The gospel was preached
01:15:59.819 --> 01:16:03.720
so powerful and so strong by people you would
01:16:03.720 --> 01:16:06.680
never think was able to do it, like Marco Rubio.
01:16:07.260 --> 01:16:10.039
Again, I'm not necessarily a fan, but I'm not
01:16:10.039 --> 01:16:13.199
an anti -fan either. It's just, you know, he's
01:16:13.199 --> 01:16:16.689
a political guy. I don't really follow him. The
01:16:16.689 --> 01:16:18.510
few things that I have heard of him, at least
01:16:18.510 --> 01:16:20.770
lately, I like. But again, I just don't jump
01:16:20.770 --> 01:16:23.770
in and follow people like that. But when we were
01:16:23.770 --> 01:16:27.989
watching that, he gave one of the strongest sermons
01:16:27.989 --> 01:16:30.489
I've ever heard in my life from a politician,
01:16:30.750 --> 01:16:33.390
ladies and gentlemen. Most of you didn't even
01:16:33.390 --> 01:16:35.430
think politicians could be saved, let alone preach
01:16:35.430 --> 01:16:40.430
the gospel. Erica Kirk, she stood up there and
01:16:40.430 --> 01:16:44.090
choked out, I forgive him. Forgiving the man
01:16:44.090 --> 01:16:47.739
that... brutally murdered, assassinated, in front
01:16:47.739 --> 01:16:50.819
of everybody, assassinated her husband. And she
01:16:50.819 --> 01:16:54.119
said, I forgive him on the international stage.
01:16:54.819 --> 01:16:58.460
You have Donald Trump Jr. that preached the gospel.
01:16:58.899 --> 01:17:01.680
Marco Rubio, the different ones. I mean, almost
01:17:01.680 --> 01:17:04.060
every one of them, if not even Tucker Carlson
01:17:04.060 --> 01:17:08.180
of all people. Now, ideologically, I would be,
01:17:08.239 --> 01:17:11.039
I'm at odds with some things Tucker Carlson has
01:17:11.039 --> 01:17:14.239
been floating out there. When rubber meets the
01:17:14.239 --> 01:17:18.279
road, when it just, this is my friend, that's
01:17:18.279 --> 01:17:22.359
my God, speaking of Jesus. He represented both
01:17:22.359 --> 01:17:26.619
of them so beautifully, so beautifully. Robert
01:17:26.619 --> 01:17:31.319
F. Kennedy, who's a Democrat of the Kennedy dynasty,
01:17:31.739 --> 01:17:36.539
got up there and preached the gospel. Again,
01:17:36.840 --> 01:17:39.100
now you preachers out there, you're listening,
01:17:39.199 --> 01:17:40.760
you're probably going to get mad at me, but I'm
01:17:40.760 --> 01:17:43.359
just going to be honest with you. For the most
01:17:43.359 --> 01:17:47.739
part, every one of those politicians, politicians,
01:17:47.840 --> 01:17:50.300
preach the gospel better than you do on Sunday.
01:17:51.520 --> 01:17:54.039
I'm just going to be honest with you. And I looked
01:17:54.039 --> 01:17:55.640
at it and go, man, these guys are out preaching
01:17:55.640 --> 01:17:58.720
me. And I don't shy away from these things. And
01:17:58.720 --> 01:18:01.880
they were preaching the gospel with conviction.
01:18:02.619 --> 01:18:06.680
It wasn't like a fake speech that they were reading.
01:18:06.880 --> 01:18:09.699
You could tell their hearts were being stirred
01:18:09.699 --> 01:18:12.270
by the Spirit of God. And they were preaching
01:18:12.270 --> 01:18:14.250
the gospel. Do you remember watching some of
01:18:14.250 --> 01:18:17.449
that? Oh, yeah. No, that was powerful. When every
01:18:17.449 --> 01:18:21.630
single important figure in all of Washington,
01:18:21.789 --> 01:18:23.649
D .C. is gathered in a building, which has never
01:18:23.649 --> 01:18:26.710
happened in history. The reason for that is for
01:18:26.710 --> 01:18:30.489
safety precautions. If the president is assassinated
01:18:30.489 --> 01:18:32.960
or something goes, you know. The building is
01:18:32.960 --> 01:18:35.039
assassinated. There's always someone next in
01:18:35.039 --> 01:18:37.619
line for presidency. In this case, they did not
01:18:37.619 --> 01:18:39.960
take that precaution. Every single important
01:18:39.960 --> 01:18:43.060
figure in Washington, D .C. showed up for this
01:18:43.060 --> 01:18:45.020
funeral. That just tells you the legacy of this
01:18:45.020 --> 01:18:48.060
man. They showed up. They worshiped. They prayed.
01:18:48.119 --> 01:18:51.619
They listened to every single speaker that went
01:18:51.619 --> 01:18:54.079
up there talk about Jesus Christ. I mean, you
01:18:54.079 --> 01:18:56.680
can't tell me that that's not a powerful, God
01:18:56.680 --> 01:19:00.529
-driven, Holy Spirit event. And I think Charlie
01:19:00.529 --> 01:19:04.250
Kirk's death, as horrible as it was, really drew
01:19:04.250 --> 01:19:07.949
in a lot of attention to Jesus Christ. Not to
01:19:07.949 --> 01:19:10.050
Charlie Kirk, to Jesus Christ. And that's exactly
01:19:10.050 --> 01:19:12.670
what Charlie would have wanted. Absolutely. And
01:19:12.670 --> 01:19:14.449
there's been people that have come out since
01:19:14.449 --> 01:19:17.770
the assassination of Charlie Kirk and said things
01:19:17.770 --> 01:19:21.090
like Jenny McCarthy, of all people. Jenny McCarthy,
01:19:21.350 --> 01:19:23.550
who I didn't know this until just recently, is
01:19:23.550 --> 01:19:27.590
married to Donnie Wahlberg, Mark Wahlberg's brother.
01:19:28.380 --> 01:19:31.680
Jenny McCarthy, an actress, but she, I mean,
01:19:31.720 --> 01:19:33.659
way back in the day. Now, this is way back in
01:19:33.659 --> 01:19:35.260
the day, ladies and gentlemen. This is proof
01:19:35.260 --> 01:19:38.239
that Jesus can change a life. She was a Playboy
01:19:38.239 --> 01:19:41.880
Bunny, you know, and all of that. And so she
01:19:41.880 --> 01:19:44.920
kind of got saved, but she was, like, nominal.
01:19:45.180 --> 01:19:48.460
But she said, just recently, she said that when
01:19:48.460 --> 01:19:52.239
Charlie Kirk was assassinated, that's what, like,
01:19:52.279 --> 01:19:54.300
flipped the switch in her, that I've got to get
01:19:54.300 --> 01:19:56.500
serious. And so many people. And she dove deep
01:19:56.500 --> 01:20:00.159
into Christ. along with Donnie Wahlberg. What
01:20:00.159 --> 01:20:02.199
boy band was he in? He was in a boy band back
01:20:02.199 --> 01:20:05.939
in the day. He's an actor now on, oh, he was
01:20:05.939 --> 01:20:08.039
part of Blue Bloods, that show Blue Bloods, and
01:20:08.039 --> 01:20:10.800
he was my favorite character on Blue Bloods,
01:20:10.800 --> 01:20:13.680
and now he's doing a Boston PD, I think it's
01:20:13.680 --> 01:20:17.760
called, but he's still acting. And now both Donnie
01:20:17.760 --> 01:20:19.880
Wahlberg and Jenny McCarthy, they're married,
01:20:19.979 --> 01:20:23.569
are... Now, serious, serious Christians, because
01:20:23.569 --> 01:20:26.609
when they saw the death of who Charlie Kirk was,
01:20:26.649 --> 01:20:29.090
they knew him and who he was, and then he was
01:20:29.090 --> 01:20:31.350
assassinated for his faith, they realized we've
01:20:31.350 --> 01:20:34.510
got to step up our game. Many people have come
01:20:34.510 --> 01:20:37.390
out and said, you know what? Charlie Kirk helped
01:20:37.390 --> 01:20:41.449
turn me around. Helped turn me around and get
01:20:41.449 --> 01:20:44.390
my life on. The blood of the martyrs. My God,
01:20:44.470 --> 01:20:47.220
ladies and gentlemen. And I'm not complaining
01:20:47.220 --> 01:20:49.779
about the people doing it. I'm complaining about
01:20:49.779 --> 01:20:52.439
the ones who aren't doing it. Preachers, we're
01:20:52.439 --> 01:20:57.520
not doing our job. Now, I'm glad Charlie Kirk
01:20:57.520 --> 01:20:59.199
was raised up, and he was a strong Christian,
01:20:59.319 --> 01:21:02.119
especially because he was murdered for it. But
01:21:02.119 --> 01:21:05.520
we should not be leaving it up to only the Charlie
01:21:05.520 --> 01:21:07.939
Kirks of the world. But look at the people that
01:21:07.939 --> 01:21:10.920
we just dealt with in here doing our job, ladies
01:21:10.920 --> 01:21:12.260
and gentlemen. If you claim to be a Christian,
01:21:12.340 --> 01:21:14.619
especially if you're a preacher, Russell Brand
01:21:14.619 --> 01:21:16.720
is doing a better job in reaching a group of
01:21:16.720 --> 01:21:21.079
people that we aren't reaching. Nicki Minaj,
01:21:21.079 --> 01:21:23.619
although she wasn't preaching the gospel per
01:21:23.619 --> 01:21:25.279
se, but she was standing up for righteousness
01:21:25.279 --> 01:21:29.720
for the church at the UN, reaching people that
01:21:29.720 --> 01:21:32.119
you and I, I'm not saying we don't have the ability
01:21:32.119 --> 01:21:34.739
to. We just haven't grown into it. We haven't
01:21:34.739 --> 01:21:39.949
sought that. Tom McDonald, a rapper. doing a
01:21:39.949 --> 01:21:42.029
much better job in reaching a group of people
01:21:42.029 --> 01:21:45.329
that we don't even try to reach with these political
01:21:45.329 --> 01:21:48.189
issues. And a lot of his videos, a lot of his
01:21:48.189 --> 01:21:54.090
songs have God woven into it powerfully. Josh
01:21:54.090 --> 01:21:57.430
Hawley, again, an attorney, politician in Missouri,
01:21:57.590 --> 01:22:01.829
preaching the gospel stronger than most preachers
01:22:01.829 --> 01:22:05.069
do from their pulpit. Charlie Kirk was assassinated
01:22:05.069 --> 01:22:09.779
for his faith. stood up and preached the gospel.
01:22:09.920 --> 01:22:14.020
His wife, Erica Kirk, President Trump, J .D.
01:22:14.039 --> 01:22:17.840
Vance, Vice President, Marco Rubio, Robert F.
01:22:17.880 --> 01:22:21.439
Kennedy, Donald Trump Jr., Tucker Carlson, just
01:22:21.439 --> 01:22:24.180
to name a few. They are doing our job and they're
01:22:24.180 --> 01:22:27.039
doing it really well as they still are politicians,
01:22:27.279 --> 01:22:30.119
as they are still rappers, as they are still
01:22:30.119 --> 01:22:33.680
activists, as they are still attorneys. They
01:22:33.680 --> 01:22:37.850
are doing their job and our job. Better than
01:22:37.850 --> 01:22:40.430
most of us are even just doing one job, and that's
01:22:40.430 --> 01:22:43.729
preaching. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry, but
01:22:43.729 --> 01:22:46.949
no longer can we pat ourselves on the back for
01:22:46.949 --> 01:22:50.890
just getting up on the platform behind a podium
01:22:50.890 --> 01:22:55.649
on a Sunday and preaching for 30, you know. I'm
01:22:55.649 --> 01:22:58.510
a long -winded preacher. I go for about an hour,
01:22:58.529 --> 01:23:00.770
sometimes an hour and 10 minutes, 15 minutes.
01:23:00.970 --> 01:23:04.109
30 minutes. Okay. Even if it's two hours, even
01:23:04.109 --> 01:23:07.079
if it's three hours. My point is. We take that
01:23:07.079 --> 01:23:09.560
little slot of time in a week, and we pat ourselves
01:23:09.560 --> 01:23:11.359
on the back like we're doing something great,
01:23:11.479 --> 01:23:13.239
and the only people listening to us is whoever
01:23:13.239 --> 01:23:15.359
we can get in that building. So even if you're
01:23:15.359 --> 01:23:17.880
the pastor of a mega church of, say, 10 ,000
01:23:17.880 --> 01:23:21.560
people, you get 10 ,000 people. Nicki Minaj had
01:23:21.560 --> 01:23:24.699
the entire world. Think about that. We pat ourselves
01:23:24.699 --> 01:23:26.500
on the back like we're doing such a great job
01:23:26.500 --> 01:23:29.880
because we can reach, you know, like my church,
01:23:30.020 --> 01:23:33.140
we have about 100 people that show up. We have
01:23:33.140 --> 01:23:35.680
more that show up online. It's weird, you know.
01:23:35.960 --> 01:23:38.180
But I can't pat myself on the back and say, look
01:23:38.180 --> 01:23:40.760
it, I'm reaching the world. No, I'm not. Nicki
01:23:40.760 --> 01:23:45.560
Minaj is. Tom McDonald certainly is. So what
01:23:45.560 --> 01:23:49.520
if, not that you have to dress like Nicki Minaj
01:23:49.520 --> 01:23:51.739
or do your hair like Tom McDonald or something
01:23:51.739 --> 01:23:53.779
like that, but I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen,
01:23:53.800 --> 01:23:56.300
it's time for us to stop patting ourselves on
01:23:56.300 --> 01:23:58.319
the back like we're doing something really, really,
01:23:58.340 --> 01:24:01.060
really great. You know, my message was powerful.
01:24:01.159 --> 01:24:04.399
Great. It's only as powerful as the people that
01:24:04.399 --> 01:24:08.159
listen to it. And we start really giving honor
01:24:08.159 --> 01:24:11.060
to where honor is due. And these are influencers.
01:24:11.359 --> 01:24:13.840
Why aren't we influencing the influencers more?
01:24:14.539 --> 01:24:17.119
We've cut them off. Oh, look at the way he dresses.
01:24:17.359 --> 01:24:20.319
He's not a Christian. He's rough around. Of course,
01:24:20.359 --> 01:24:22.300
he's rough around the edges. Of course, Nicki
01:24:22.300 --> 01:24:24.560
Minaj is a rapper and she doesn't talk about
01:24:24.560 --> 01:24:28.079
Christ. But what if somebody had the in and really
01:24:28.079 --> 01:24:30.439
went and spoke to her? It's kind of like, what
01:24:30.439 --> 01:24:34.289
was his name? What's the little singer guy? I
01:24:34.289 --> 01:24:36.630
don't even know these guys that went to the Hillsong
01:24:36.630 --> 01:24:39.270
Church. The little singer. You mean Justin Bieber?
01:24:39.430 --> 01:24:41.010
Justin Bieber. Little singer guy. I always see
01:24:41.010 --> 01:24:43.770
him. He's always like thin. And I picture him
01:24:43.770 --> 01:24:46.729
as like four foot, you know. Anyways, he went
01:24:46.729 --> 01:24:48.970
to a church. He got tied in with the pastor.
01:24:48.989 --> 01:24:51.850
And the pastor turned out to be a fruitcake,
01:24:51.909 --> 01:24:54.590
you know. I mean, just a weirdo. Not serious
01:24:54.590 --> 01:24:57.289
for Christ at all. All messed up. Going to bars
01:24:57.289 --> 01:24:59.630
with him and everything. No, we have to minister.
01:24:59.850 --> 01:25:04.109
It's ridiculous. But you're talking to the pastors
01:25:04.109 --> 01:25:05.909
and the priests, and I want to talk to those
01:25:05.909 --> 01:25:07.510
in the congregation because a lot of the people
01:25:07.510 --> 01:25:10.300
who are listening. are nodding their heads in
01:25:10.300 --> 01:25:12.680
full agreement with you that, yeah, pastors need
01:25:12.680 --> 01:25:15.439
to do better and priests need to do better. And
01:25:15.439 --> 01:25:17.119
they're in full agreement. But I want to talk
01:25:17.119 --> 01:25:20.140
to the congregation members who are nodding their
01:25:20.140 --> 01:25:21.680
heads right now in full agreement. I want to
01:25:21.680 --> 01:25:24.319
talk to you directly. You might be in the congregation,
01:25:24.539 --> 01:25:26.720
but you have a call as well. What are you doing
01:25:26.720 --> 01:25:28.640
for your faith? What are you doing for your community,
01:25:28.720 --> 01:25:31.739
for your church? And are you just sitting here
01:25:31.739 --> 01:25:33.880
nodding your head in agreement that pastors and
01:25:33.880 --> 01:25:36.579
priests need to step up? Or are you yourself
01:25:36.579 --> 01:25:39.340
doing something? Because that matters too. And
01:25:39.340 --> 01:25:41.819
so I want to talk to those, our listeners as
01:25:41.819 --> 01:25:43.720
well, who don't have a position in the church.
01:25:43.880 --> 01:25:46.359
You also need to be standing up. You also need
01:25:46.359 --> 01:25:48.520
to be standing up for righteousness, first and
01:25:48.520 --> 01:25:50.079
foremost in your family, because that's your
01:25:50.079 --> 01:25:51.880
first ministry. That's your first responsibility.
01:25:52.479 --> 01:25:56.020
And start volunteering in your church. Start
01:25:56.020 --> 01:25:58.380
getting involved. Start heading things up. Start,
01:25:58.520 --> 01:26:01.520
you know, help clean up, help with the events,
01:26:01.699 --> 01:26:04.979
because you also have a call. You also have something
01:26:04.979 --> 01:26:07.810
that you need to be doing. As well, because it's
01:26:07.810 --> 01:26:10.210
easy to sit here and listen to what the pastors
01:26:10.210 --> 01:26:11.970
and the preachers need to be doing. And you stand
01:26:11.970 --> 01:26:13.909
in full agreement with what they need to be doing.
01:26:14.210 --> 01:26:16.789
But also examine yourself. What are you doing
01:26:16.789 --> 01:26:18.890
to step up and to stand up for righteousness
01:26:18.890 --> 01:26:21.390
and put on display Christ in your community?
01:26:22.109 --> 01:26:24.930
That is very good because it starts, you know,
01:26:24.949 --> 01:26:28.109
sometimes it starts with just saying, hey, pastor,
01:26:28.289 --> 01:26:32.630
I'll clean the toilets. I'll sweep the floor.
01:26:32.810 --> 01:26:35.850
Come on, let's face it. There's very few. There's
01:26:35.850 --> 01:26:37.909
some. But there's very few people that want to
01:26:37.909 --> 01:26:40.489
do that. Yes. But you break out into ministry.
01:26:40.590 --> 01:26:42.689
You break out into those greater areas by starting
01:26:42.689 --> 01:26:46.250
in something small. I guarantee your children's
01:26:46.250 --> 01:26:48.329
church needs help. Oh, absolutely. I guarantee
01:26:48.329 --> 01:26:50.229
every church I've ever been to, and I've been
01:26:50.229 --> 01:26:52.810
to a lot, that is their number one need. Yep.
01:26:53.130 --> 01:26:59.029
And yeah, so get involved. But also, pastors,
01:26:59.369 --> 01:27:02.229
we've got to stop pigeonholing ourselves and
01:27:02.229 --> 01:27:05.909
putting ourselves in these... like this little
01:27:05.909 --> 01:27:08.630
Christian pigeonhole, like this is what Christianity
01:27:08.630 --> 01:27:10.909
looks like, and if they don't look just like
01:27:10.909 --> 01:27:13.390
this, we're not going to deal with them. Well,
01:27:13.449 --> 01:27:16.189
you've missed the, as we were saying, you missed
01:27:16.189 --> 01:27:18.369
the Tom McDonalds that certainly don't look like
01:27:18.369 --> 01:27:21.149
us but can reach millions. You've missed the
01:27:21.149 --> 01:27:23.729
Nicki Minaj's that may not look like us but could
01:27:23.729 --> 01:27:29.489
reach millions. You know, I don't like to talk
01:27:29.489 --> 01:27:32.680
about this. All the time, just to make a point.
01:27:32.840 --> 01:27:34.560
Because a lot of people say, well, you already
01:27:34.560 --> 01:27:38.020
admitted. You've got like, what, 100 people that
01:27:38.020 --> 01:27:41.420
show up. Yeah, I don't have a big church. But
01:27:41.420 --> 01:27:45.100
that's one reason God has also called me to the
01:27:45.100 --> 01:27:48.119
nations. And when I go to the nations, I sometimes
01:27:48.119 --> 01:27:52.539
speak before thousands. I sometimes speak to
01:27:52.539 --> 01:27:57.380
governors, politicians, presidents, vice presidents.
01:27:59.239 --> 01:28:01.500
I might be touching one person in that moment,
01:28:01.600 --> 01:28:03.479
but that one person goes and touches millions.
01:28:03.699 --> 01:28:05.819
I put my money where my mouth is, or I wouldn't
01:28:05.819 --> 01:28:07.699
be talking about this because I'd be throwing
01:28:07.699 --> 01:28:11.380
myself completely under that bus. So here, you
01:28:11.380 --> 01:28:15.140
know, I have a fairly decent relationship with
01:28:15.140 --> 01:28:18.220
our local mayor. And when I say fairly decent,
01:28:18.359 --> 01:28:19.840
he doesn't always like me because he doesn't
01:28:19.840 --> 01:28:22.800
always like what I have to say. But when we do
01:28:22.800 --> 01:28:24.800
meet and we do sit down, which we have done several
01:28:24.800 --> 01:28:27.279
times, many times over the years. I'm not afraid
01:28:27.279 --> 01:28:29.180
to tell him where he's wrong. I'm not afraid
01:28:29.180 --> 01:28:31.720
to tell him where he's right. I'm not afraid
01:28:31.720 --> 01:28:34.380
to be a great supporter of something he does,
01:28:34.460 --> 01:28:36.600
but I'm also not afraid to go, uh -uh, I can't
01:28:36.600 --> 01:28:39.520
support you on this. So sometimes he's really
01:28:39.520 --> 01:28:41.260
happy to see me, and sometimes he's not happy
01:28:41.260 --> 01:28:44.699
to see me. But one thing I do know that we can
01:28:44.699 --> 01:28:47.979
do, at least on that personal level, is respect
01:28:47.979 --> 01:28:50.279
one another, because he will at least listen
01:28:50.279 --> 01:28:53.380
to me. And you guys, well, I don't have that
01:28:53.380 --> 01:28:56.260
relationship with my mayor. That's only because
01:28:56.260 --> 01:28:58.359
you haven't set an appointment and sat down with
01:28:58.359 --> 01:29:02.119
him or her. So do it. Start there. Start influencing
01:29:02.119 --> 01:29:05.340
the influencers. You know, I forget the guy's
01:29:05.340 --> 01:29:07.939
name, but there was a guy that led Billy Graham
01:29:07.939 --> 01:29:12.520
to the Lord. Think about that. Most of us don't
01:29:12.520 --> 01:29:14.319
even know that guy's name, but there was somebody
01:29:14.319 --> 01:29:16.500
that led Billy Graham to the Lord, and Billy
01:29:16.500 --> 01:29:18.779
Graham led millions to the Lord. And you can
01:29:18.779 --> 01:29:21.420
do that. across the board so be the one that
01:29:21.420 --> 01:29:23.439
really changes things by meeting with those important
01:29:23.439 --> 01:29:26.279
people and speaking the word of truth to them
01:29:26.279 --> 01:29:29.260
anyways do you have any final words she kind
01:29:29.260 --> 01:29:31.579
of no no i'm standing full agreement i think
01:29:31.579 --> 01:29:33.399
it's a good place to end is um at the end of
01:29:33.399 --> 01:29:35.680
the day it's easy to to listen to things like
01:29:35.680 --> 01:29:37.979
this nod your head in full agreement as to what
01:29:37.979 --> 01:29:41.520
other people need to be doing But that's just
01:29:41.520 --> 01:29:43.659
my final challenge to all of our listeners is
01:29:43.659 --> 01:29:45.359
it's easy to nod your head in full agreement
01:29:45.359 --> 01:29:47.300
as to what our politicians, our pastors need
01:29:47.300 --> 01:29:49.399
to be doing. But I want to challenge our listeners
01:29:49.399 --> 01:29:52.840
to what are you doing to get involved in your
01:29:52.840 --> 01:29:55.439
community, to stand out for righteousness in
01:29:55.439 --> 01:29:57.539
your first and foremost, your family, your church,
01:29:57.539 --> 01:30:00.279
your jobs? And are you being a Christlike example
01:30:00.279 --> 01:30:03.300
in those places before you point fingers as to
01:30:03.300 --> 01:30:05.699
what other leaders in your community need to
01:30:05.699 --> 01:30:09.159
be doing? Absolutely. So, you know, because.
01:30:09.840 --> 01:30:14.260
Because I am a pulpit preacher, I'm leading a
01:30:14.260 --> 01:30:19.760
church, my main focus is on my peers, those who
01:30:19.760 --> 01:30:22.760
do the same. But the reality is the truth is
01:30:22.760 --> 01:30:26.439
for everybody. It's for everybody. Even those
01:30:26.439 --> 01:30:28.819
who aren't quote -unquote churched but have a
01:30:28.819 --> 01:30:31.439
sense of righteousness, it's for you too. Get
01:30:31.439 --> 01:30:34.180
involved and get that righteousness spread because
01:30:34.180 --> 01:30:36.020
look at the wickedness, look at the darkness.
01:30:36.760 --> 01:30:40.109
Do you know what darkness is? It's just the absence
01:30:40.109 --> 01:30:42.949
of light, and you are the light. So if there's
01:30:42.949 --> 01:30:46.010
darkness, it's because one of us, who's the light,
01:30:46.149 --> 01:30:49.550
is not involved. Let's get involved. Anyways,
01:30:49.609 --> 01:30:53.350
God bless you, everybody. I look forward to being
01:30:53.350 --> 01:30:55.430
back with you, and I'm so glad to be with you.
01:30:55.470 --> 01:30:57.329
I hope you all have a great, great, great, great,
01:30:57.350 --> 01:31:00.850
great, great Christmas. And I'm looking forward.
01:31:00.930 --> 01:31:03.890
I'm going to do my best to do a podcast just
01:31:03.890 --> 01:31:08.289
for Christmas. Before Christmas, of course. So
01:31:08.289 --> 01:31:10.770
be looking for that. Any closing words? That's
01:31:10.770 --> 01:31:13.069
it. Merry Christmas, everybody. All right. God
01:31:13.069 --> 01:31:20.369
bless you. We'll see you all soon. Thank you
