00:00:00.170 --> 00:00:05.370
A city council allowed a Satanist to, quote, open in
2
00:00:05.509 --> 00:00:10.250
prayer their city council meeting. He invoked Satan, literally saying
3
00:00:10.750 --> 00:00:13.349
in public at a microphone with the blessing of the
4
00:00:13.390 --> 00:00:17.710
city council, hail Satan, and prayed to.
5
00:00:17.589 --> 00:00:22.239
The dark father that everyone would follow.
6
00:00:21.949 --> 00:00:27.120
Their Luciferian quest to pursue the tree of knowledge.
7
00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:30.890
Should never be spared its demise. It is done. Hail Satan.
8
00:00:36.719 --> 00:00:42.500
The mayor defended this as an adherence to a proper
9
00:00:42.899 --> 00:00:46.359
diversity code in the city. Hey everyone, God bless you.
10
00:00:46.539 --> 00:00:49.299
Thanks so much for tuning in. I have a reflection
11
00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:52.299
today for you that has been provoked in me by
12
00:00:52.859 --> 00:00:56.719
some incident that happened this month in the state of
13
00:00:56.880 --> 00:01:01.200
Iowa that has just really disturbed me. I think most
14
00:01:01.240 --> 00:01:05.510
of us who are practicing our Christian faith in our
15
00:01:05.569 --> 00:01:09.989
beloved nation, which has been dying very quickly, losing its
16
00:01:10.049 --> 00:01:14.629
complete identity in this globalist mush that has been promoted
17
00:01:15.670 --> 00:01:20.459
by the machine all over the world. Our glorious history
18
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:25.120
in our more reasonable times have been going out the
19
00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:28.650
door for a long time. We are in the midst
20
00:01:28.730 --> 00:01:33.579
of this awakening which I pray will be God's answer
21
00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:37.609
to a century of radical decline in the United States
22
00:01:38.030 --> 00:01:42.700
certainly morally and religiously which is the spring from which
23
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:46.640
all Decent culture comes. You have to have the cult right, right?
24
00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:50.079
Or your culture will stink and ours stinks to high heaven.
25
00:01:50.420 --> 00:01:56.370
This mantra that we hear being drummed out constantly in
26
00:01:56.409 --> 00:02:02.010
our culture has as one of its favorite songs, celebrate diversity.
27
00:02:02.870 --> 00:02:06.879
It's a mantra promoted by a cultureless, rootless, confused and
28
00:02:07.019 --> 00:02:11.580
falling modernity, for sure. This month, on the 6th of October,
29
00:02:11.979 --> 00:02:17.270
something truly shocking was recorded and got into the press.
30
00:02:18.250 --> 00:02:22.969
And that was a very unfortunate city council meeting. In
31
00:02:23.270 --> 00:02:26.889
the state of Iowa, I want to speak about what
32
00:02:26.909 --> 00:02:31.830
it means to properly celebrate diversity. Celebrating diversity, is that legit?
33
00:02:32.129 --> 00:02:34.590
And if we do do it, how do we do it? Well,
34
00:02:34.629 --> 00:02:37.919
I think it is legit. Diversity is an aspect of
35
00:02:37.979 --> 00:02:41.879
creation that should be deeply celebrated. properly celebrating it, like
36
00:02:41.939 --> 00:02:45.879
a cultured person, like a human being that has intelligence,
37
00:02:45.900 --> 00:02:49.460
some measure of intelligence, of course, is there are distinctions.
38
00:02:49.500 --> 00:02:51.430
There are things that we celebrate and there are things
39
00:02:51.469 --> 00:02:54.830
that we do not celebrate. Certainly, celebrating the diversity in
40
00:02:54.870 --> 00:02:59.310
God's wonderful creation is basic and wonderful and an aspect
41
00:02:59.509 --> 00:03:03.310
of being a human being. The magnificent array of flowers,
42
00:03:03.710 --> 00:03:08.719
flora and fauna, landscapes, the animal kingdom, The diversity in
43
00:03:08.740 --> 00:03:13.400
the animal kingdom is just breathtaking. Even more diversities amongst
44
00:03:13.439 --> 00:03:17.139
human beings should be celebrated. No two human beings each
45
00:03:17.219 --> 00:03:19.819
made in the image and called to the likeness of God.
46
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:23.479
Every human being is unique and we can stand in awe.
47
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:27.139
The very nature of how God made the human body,
48
00:03:27.379 --> 00:03:30.960
the placing the head where he did and the incredible
49
00:03:31.020 --> 00:03:34.979
gift of eyes and where he put them at the top.
50
00:03:35.500 --> 00:03:37.840
The fact that we're bipeds and that we walk on
51
00:03:37.870 --> 00:03:41.430
the earth with two feet, but our hearts and minds
52
00:03:41.569 --> 00:03:44.169
are directed towards the heavens, such that we can be
53
00:03:44.509 --> 00:03:46.310
in two places, so to speak, in our heart at
54
00:03:46.349 --> 00:03:50.169
the same time. The diversity between male and female, and
55
00:03:50.189 --> 00:03:52.750
then the fact that every single human being is like
56
00:03:52.789 --> 00:03:56.860
a snowflake and absolutely unique. Not just in body, but
57
00:03:56.979 --> 00:04:01.199
in mind. The complexity and beauty and diversity of the
58
00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:03.639
human mind is breathtaking.
59
00:04:03.860 --> 00:04:06.909
What a God we serve. What a creator. How marvelous.
60
00:04:06.969 --> 00:04:10.969
And then the sublimity of the human soul. And our
61
00:04:11.009 --> 00:04:14.449
connection to the invisible world and our straddling both the
62
00:04:14.490 --> 00:04:16.860
earthly world and the heavenly world. Oh, there is so
63
00:04:16.889 --> 00:04:19.540
much diversity amongst human beings to be celebrated.
64
00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:20.680
It's all true.
65
00:04:20.740 --> 00:04:25.839
And there are many other diversities that should be celebrated.
66
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:32.430
Mysterious and magnificent. Other human realities we both celebrate and mourn.
67
00:04:33.439 --> 00:04:36.670
For instance, think with me about the diversity of language.
68
00:04:36.939 --> 00:04:40.209
I find the diversity of languages to be, on one hand,
69
00:04:40.470 --> 00:04:44.610
extremely beautiful and mysterious. To listen to a French person
70
00:04:44.670 --> 00:04:47.790
speak French and to see how zealous they are to
71
00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:52.699
maintain their French language. Now, living where I do in
72
00:04:52.740 --> 00:04:57.000
Southern California, Spanish, which is also such a beautiful language
73
00:04:57.079 --> 00:05:00.500
and spoken by, so I think about 250 million people
74
00:05:00.540 --> 00:05:02.519
in the world now, such a magnificent language.
75
00:05:02.759 --> 00:05:05.170
And of course, I love the English language.
76
00:05:05.790 --> 00:05:09.610
The diversity of languages is something very beautiful and much
77
00:05:09.649 --> 00:05:10.389
to be respected.
78
00:05:10.569 --> 00:05:10.850
And yet.
79
00:05:11.410 --> 00:05:14.029
We also, when we think about the diversity of languages,
80
00:05:14.089 --> 00:05:18.610
also remember that that was a particular curse that made
81
00:05:18.670 --> 00:05:22.689
communication between and cooperation between the human family very difficult.
82
00:05:22.769 --> 00:05:25.120
If you read Genesis 11 and the story of Babel,
83
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:28.920
you'll remember that God is the one who separated human languages,
84
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:31.199
and that's not how it was from the beginning. God's
85
00:05:31.220 --> 00:05:36.079
the one who separated languages because of our quest for self-deification,
86
00:05:36.220 --> 00:05:38.399
trying to make a ziggurat that goes to the heavens.
87
00:05:38.449 --> 00:05:40.889
We don't need the Lord's mercy to come down. No, no,
88
00:05:40.910 --> 00:05:43.829
we're just going to scale the heights ourselves. We're very much,
89
00:05:44.649 --> 00:05:50.100
by the way, absolutely possessed. Western technological society is possessed
90
00:05:50.139 --> 00:05:56.730
by this Babylonic Babel spirit of God. self-deification. We're fooling ourselves.
91
00:05:57.829 --> 00:06:00.350
Absolutely fooling ourselves. And by the way, in that text
92
00:06:00.389 --> 00:06:02.149
in Genesis 11, it says that God had to come
93
00:06:02.170 --> 00:06:04.069
down and look. They thought they had built a tower
94
00:06:04.089 --> 00:06:07.810
to heaven. Such an impressive technology, the AI of the time.
95
00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:09.879
And the Lord had to look down even to see
96
00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:11.860
the little puny thing. Oh, look, look what they're trying
97
00:06:11.899 --> 00:06:15.160
to do. So there are some diversities that can both,
98
00:06:15.220 --> 00:06:18.180
I think, have a relative celebration and also an aspect
99
00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:23.560
of mourning. But there are also diversities that that we
100
00:06:23.560 --> 00:06:29.259
100% do not celebrate at all. So the blanket statement
101
00:06:29.339 --> 00:06:34.819
celebrate all human diversity is complete nonsense. Complete nonsense. Now
102
00:06:34.860 --> 00:06:39.459
think with me for a minute about this idea. Now
103
00:06:39.540 --> 00:06:43.579
even the secularists who are calling us to celebrate diversity
104
00:06:43.620 --> 00:06:48.040
and manifesting a bizarre tolerance that civilized people have never
105
00:06:48.139 --> 00:06:52.439
exercised because we've never been this stupid as we are
106
00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:57.519
today in secularist society. Even those who don't believe, are
107
00:06:57.560 --> 00:07:04.459
not traditionally committed to religion and morality, even they do
108
00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:07.459
not do what they say. They do not celebrate all
109
00:07:07.660 --> 00:07:11.019
human diversity because the same ones who are promoting celebrating
110
00:07:11.060 --> 00:07:15.529
diversity do not celebrate human beings who reject celebrating diversity.
111
00:07:15.790 --> 00:07:19.889
So celebrate diversity except The opinion that you shouldn't celebrate
112
00:07:19.930 --> 00:07:20.550
all diversity.
113
00:07:20.810 --> 00:07:21.910
That they cannot tolerate.
114
00:07:22.829 --> 00:07:25.360
So they can't even follow their own principles. But here
115
00:07:25.459 --> 00:07:29.620
are two diversities that we should never celebrate. And they
116
00:07:29.660 --> 00:07:37.829
are the most important diversities possible. First, theological diversity. We
117
00:07:37.870 --> 00:07:42.420
do not celebrate theological diversity. We do not celebrate polytheism
118
00:07:42.939 --> 00:07:45.019
amongst the world religions, do we? We who know the
119
00:07:45.100 --> 00:07:48.420
one true God, for whom the idea is not just
120
00:07:48.459 --> 00:07:52.759
a game. If you really believe in God, the one
121
00:07:52.819 --> 00:07:57.670
God who made all things, do you celebrate those who
122
00:07:57.709 --> 00:08:01.250
think that God is not one, that God is matter,
123
00:08:01.850 --> 00:08:04.730
or that God is a diversity of beings such that
124
00:08:06.019 --> 00:08:07.800
There are hundreds and hundreds of different gods?
125
00:08:08.259 --> 00:08:09.379
No. No.
126
00:08:09.750 --> 00:08:13.410
We do not celebrate polytheism, for instance, and there's many
127
00:08:13.509 --> 00:08:17.100
other theological convictions that are not to be celebrated. We
128
00:08:17.120 --> 00:08:20.259
do not celebrate polytheism in the world's religions.
129
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:20.939
No, we do not.
130
00:08:22.180 --> 00:08:25.600
Do we celebrate within the Christian faith heresy? That's diversity.
131
00:08:25.620 --> 00:08:29.459
It's a diversity of theological conviction. Do we celebrate heresies? Oh, look,
132
00:08:29.560 --> 00:08:33.039
you're an Arian. You think that Jesus is created. Yay,
133
00:08:33.139 --> 00:08:37.539
celebrate diversity. I think not. We do not celebrate theological diversity.
134
00:08:38.100 --> 00:08:41.860
How about the second area? Do we celebrate moral diversity?
135
00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:46.840
Do we say, yay, you love your wife. You're a lover. And, oh,
136
00:08:46.980 --> 00:08:50.169
you're a wife beater. Yay, you're a wife beater. Do
137
00:08:50.210 --> 00:08:53.409
we do that? It's a diversity. One man thinks it's
138
00:08:53.509 --> 00:08:56.990
improper to be a violent against his wife and loves
139
00:08:57.009 --> 00:08:59.330
her and sacrifices for her and guards and protects her.
140
00:08:59.710 --> 00:09:01.629
The other man thinks that the wife can just be
141
00:09:02.029 --> 00:09:04.769
a slave. And if she acts bad, she should be struck.
142
00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:08.120
That's a diversity of moral convictions. Do we celebrate it?
143
00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:11.299
Now you may be saying, father, don't be ridiculous. Well,
144
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:15.080
it's not ridiculous because this very mistake is being propagated
145
00:09:15.139 --> 00:09:19.399
right now in our land. because of our lack of maturity.
146
00:09:19.820 --> 00:09:22.539
We don't celebrate moral diversity.
147
00:09:22.580 --> 00:09:25.919
We don't say, oh, look, you're a peacemaker. Wonderful.
148
00:09:26.100 --> 00:09:29.500
And then you're a serial killer. Yes, we celebrate diversity.
149
00:09:29.899 --> 00:09:31.700
One likes to make peace with men. One likes to
150
00:09:31.740 --> 00:09:36.720
slaughter men. We neither celebrate theological diversity or moral diversity.
151
00:09:37.100 --> 00:09:41.610
Those who tolerate this kind of diversity are clueless. It
152
00:09:41.620 --> 00:09:46.570
just so happens that On October 6th in Iowa, the
153
00:09:46.629 --> 00:09:54.320
city council allowed a Satanist to quote, open in prayer
154
00:09:55.399 --> 00:10:00.169
their city council meeting. He invoked Satan, literally saying, in
155
00:10:00.250 --> 00:10:03.470
public at a microphone with the blessing of the city council,
156
00:10:04.470 --> 00:10:10.649
hail Satan and prayed to the dark father that everyone
157
00:10:10.730 --> 00:10:18.399
would follow their Luciferian quest to pursue the tree of knowledge.
158
00:10:18.860 --> 00:10:21.840
Dear dark father, Let us stand now unbowed and unfettered
159
00:10:21.860 --> 00:10:24.580
by arcane doctrines born of fearful minds in darkened times.
160
00:10:25.460 --> 00:10:27.519
Let us embrace the Luciferian impulse to eat of the
161
00:10:27.559 --> 00:10:36.169
tree of knowledge. It is done. Hail Satan. Can you
162
00:10:36.210 --> 00:10:38.450
imagine the mayor.
163
00:10:39.590 --> 00:10:44.950
Of that town, or something like that in Iowa, the
164
00:10:45.009 --> 00:10:51.639
mayor of that town defended, defended this as, an adherence
165
00:10:51.990 --> 00:10:56.889
to a proper diversity code in the city. Anyone who
166
00:10:57.110 --> 00:11:02.049
thinks that way is a mental incompetent and is morally
167
00:11:02.190 --> 00:11:06.799
responsible before God for what he did and the platform
168
00:11:06.840 --> 00:11:14.879
he gave to obvious evil. That is how confused. That's
169
00:11:14.919 --> 00:11:19.610
the best interpretation. That's how confused we are. We really
170
00:11:19.649 --> 00:11:21.950
need to grow up and we really need to repent
171
00:11:22.990 --> 00:11:31.570
and show some maturity, celebrate proper diversities, abhor improper diversities,
172
00:11:31.889 --> 00:11:38.740
lies and immorality, and grow up. God be with you,
173
00:11:38.759 --> 00:11:39.100
dear ones.
174
00:11:39.610 --> 00:11:42.950

Patristic Nectar today.
1
00:00:00.170 --> 00:00:05.370
A city council allowed a Satanist to, quote, open in
2
00:00:05.509 --> 00:00:10.250
prayer their city council meeting. He invoked Satan, literally saying
3
00:00:10.750 --> 00:00:13.349
in public at a microphone with the blessing of the
4
00:00:13.390 --> 00:00:17.710
city council, hail Satan, and prayed to.
5
00:00:17.589 --> 00:00:22.239
The dark father that everyone would follow.
6
00:00:21.949 --> 00:00:27.120
Their Luciferian quest to pursue the tree of knowledge.
7
00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:30.890
Should never be spared its demise. It is done. Hail Satan.
8
00:00:36.719 --> 00:00:42.500
The mayor defended this as an adherence to a proper
9
00:00:42.899 --> 00:00:46.359
diversity code in the city. Hey everyone, God bless you.
10
00:00:46.539 --> 00:00:49.299
Thanks so much for tuning in. I have a reflection
11
00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:52.299
today for you that has been provoked in me by
12
00:00:52.859 --> 00:00:56.719
some incident that happened this month in the state of
13
00:00:56.880 --> 00:01:01.200
Iowa that has just really disturbed me. I think most
14
00:01:01.240 --> 00:01:05.510
of us who are practicing our Christian faith in our
15
00:01:05.569 --> 00:01:09.989
beloved nation, which has been dying very quickly, losing its
16
00:01:10.049 --> 00:01:14.629
complete identity in this globalist mush that has been promoted
17
00:01:15.670 --> 00:01:20.459
by the machine all over the world. Our glorious history
18
00:01:21.719 --> 00:01:25.120
in our more reasonable times have been going out the
19
00:01:25.159 --> 00:01:28.650
door for a long time. We are in the midst
20
00:01:28.730 --> 00:01:33.579
of this awakening which I pray will be God's answer
21
00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:37.609
to a century of radical decline in the United States
22
00:01:38.030 --> 00:01:42.700
certainly morally and religiously which is the spring from which
23
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:46.640
all Decent culture comes. You have to have the cult right, right?
24
00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:50.079
Or your culture will stink and ours stinks to high heaven.
25
00:01:50.420 --> 00:01:56.370
This mantra that we hear being drummed out constantly in
26
00:01:56.409 --> 00:02:02.010
our culture has as one of its favorite songs, celebrate diversity.
27
00:02:02.870 --> 00:02:06.879
It's a mantra promoted by a cultureless, rootless, confused and
28
00:02:07.019 --> 00:02:11.580
falling modernity, for sure. This month, on the 6th of October,
29
00:02:11.979 --> 00:02:17.270
something truly shocking was recorded and got into the press.
30
00:02:18.250 --> 00:02:22.969
And that was a very unfortunate city council meeting. In
31
00:02:23.270 --> 00:02:26.889
the state of Iowa, I want to speak about what
32
00:02:26.909 --> 00:02:31.830
it means to properly celebrate diversity. Celebrating diversity, is that legit?
33
00:02:32.129 --> 00:02:34.590
And if we do do it, how do we do it? Well,
34
00:02:34.629 --> 00:02:37.919
I think it is legit. Diversity is an aspect of
35
00:02:37.979 --> 00:02:41.879
creation that should be deeply celebrated. properly celebrating it, like
36
00:02:41.939 --> 00:02:45.879
a cultured person, like a human being that has intelligence,
37
00:02:45.900 --> 00:02:49.460
some measure of intelligence, of course, is there are distinctions.
38
00:02:49.500 --> 00:02:51.430
There are things that we celebrate and there are things
39
00:02:51.469 --> 00:02:54.830
that we do not celebrate. Certainly, celebrating the diversity in
40
00:02:54.870 --> 00:02:59.310
God's wonderful creation is basic and wonderful and an aspect
41
00:02:59.509 --> 00:03:03.310
of being a human being. The magnificent array of flowers,
42
00:03:03.710 --> 00:03:08.719
flora and fauna, landscapes, the animal kingdom, The diversity in
43
00:03:08.740 --> 00:03:13.400
the animal kingdom is just breathtaking. Even more diversities amongst
44
00:03:13.439 --> 00:03:17.139
human beings should be celebrated. No two human beings each
45
00:03:17.219 --> 00:03:19.819
made in the image and called to the likeness of God.
46
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:23.479
Every human being is unique and we can stand in awe.
47
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:27.139
The very nature of how God made the human body,
48
00:03:27.379 --> 00:03:30.960
the placing the head where he did and the incredible
49
00:03:31.020 --> 00:03:34.979
gift of eyes and where he put them at the top.
50
00:03:35.500 --> 00:03:37.840
The fact that we're bipeds and that we walk on
51
00:03:37.870 --> 00:03:41.430
the earth with two feet, but our hearts and minds
52
00:03:41.569 --> 00:03:44.169
are directed towards the heavens, such that we can be
53
00:03:44.509 --> 00:03:46.310
in two places, so to speak, in our heart at
54
00:03:46.349 --> 00:03:50.169
the same time. The diversity between male and female, and
55
00:03:50.189 --> 00:03:52.750
then the fact that every single human being is like
56
00:03:52.789 --> 00:03:56.860
a snowflake and absolutely unique. Not just in body, but
57
00:03:56.979 --> 00:04:01.199
in mind. The complexity and beauty and diversity of the
58
00:04:01.240 --> 00:04:03.639
human mind is breathtaking.
59
00:04:03.860 --> 00:04:06.909
What a God we serve. What a creator. How marvelous.
60
00:04:06.969 --> 00:04:10.969
And then the sublimity of the human soul. And our
61
00:04:11.009 --> 00:04:14.449
connection to the invisible world and our straddling both the
62
00:04:14.490 --> 00:04:16.860
earthly world and the heavenly world. Oh, there is so
63
00:04:16.889 --> 00:04:19.540
much diversity amongst human beings to be celebrated.
64
00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:20.680
It's all true.
65
00:04:20.740 --> 00:04:25.839
And there are many other diversities that should be celebrated.
66
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:32.430
Mysterious and magnificent. Other human realities we both celebrate and mourn.
67
00:04:33.439 --> 00:04:36.670
For instance, think with me about the diversity of language.
68
00:04:36.939 --> 00:04:40.209
I find the diversity of languages to be, on one hand,
69
00:04:40.470 --> 00:04:44.610
extremely beautiful and mysterious. To listen to a French person
70
00:04:44.670 --> 00:04:47.790
speak French and to see how zealous they are to
71
00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:52.699
maintain their French language. Now, living where I do in
72
00:04:52.740 --> 00:04:57.000
Southern California, Spanish, which is also such a beautiful language
73
00:04:57.079 --> 00:05:00.500
and spoken by, so I think about 250 million people
74
00:05:00.540 --> 00:05:02.519
in the world now, such a magnificent language.
75
00:05:02.759 --> 00:05:05.170
And of course, I love the English language.
76
00:05:05.790 --> 00:05:09.610
The diversity of languages is something very beautiful and much
77
00:05:09.649 --> 00:05:10.389
to be respected.
78
00:05:10.569 --> 00:05:10.850
And yet.
79
00:05:11.410 --> 00:05:14.029
We also, when we think about the diversity of languages,
80
00:05:14.089 --> 00:05:18.610
also remember that that was a particular curse that made
81
00:05:18.670 --> 00:05:22.689
communication between and cooperation between the human family very difficult.
82
00:05:22.769 --> 00:05:25.120
If you read Genesis 11 and the story of Babel,
83
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:28.920
you'll remember that God is the one who separated human languages,
84
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:31.199
and that's not how it was from the beginning. God's
85
00:05:31.220 --> 00:05:36.079
the one who separated languages because of our quest for self-deification,
86
00:05:36.220 --> 00:05:38.399
trying to make a ziggurat that goes to the heavens.
87
00:05:38.449 --> 00:05:40.889
We don't need the Lord's mercy to come down. No, no,
88
00:05:40.910 --> 00:05:43.829
we're just going to scale the heights ourselves. We're very much,
89
00:05:44.649 --> 00:05:50.100
by the way, absolutely possessed. Western technological society is possessed
90
00:05:50.139 --> 00:05:56.730
by this Babylonic Babel spirit of God. self-deification. We're fooling ourselves.
91
00:05:57.829 --> 00:06:00.350
Absolutely fooling ourselves. And by the way, in that text
92
00:06:00.389 --> 00:06:02.149
in Genesis 11, it says that God had to come
93
00:06:02.170 --> 00:06:04.069
down and look. They thought they had built a tower
94
00:06:04.089 --> 00:06:07.810
to heaven. Such an impressive technology, the AI of the time.
95
00:06:08.160 --> 00:06:09.879
And the Lord had to look down even to see
96
00:06:09.920 --> 00:06:11.860
the little puny thing. Oh, look, look what they're trying
97
00:06:11.899 --> 00:06:15.160
to do. So there are some diversities that can both,
98
00:06:15.220 --> 00:06:18.180
I think, have a relative celebration and also an aspect
99
00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:23.560
of mourning. But there are also diversities that that we
100
00:06:23.560 --> 00:06:29.259
100% do not celebrate at all. So the blanket statement
101
00:06:29.339 --> 00:06:34.819
celebrate all human diversity is complete nonsense. Complete nonsense. Now
102
00:06:34.860 --> 00:06:39.459
think with me for a minute about this idea. Now
103
00:06:39.540 --> 00:06:43.579
even the secularists who are calling us to celebrate diversity
104
00:06:43.620 --> 00:06:48.040
and manifesting a bizarre tolerance that civilized people have never
105
00:06:48.139 --> 00:06:52.439
exercised because we've never been this stupid as we are
106
00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:57.519
today in secularist society. Even those who don't believe, are
107
00:06:57.560 --> 00:07:04.459
not traditionally committed to religion and morality, even they do
108
00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:07.459
not do what they say. They do not celebrate all
109
00:07:07.660 --> 00:07:11.019
human diversity because the same ones who are promoting celebrating
110
00:07:11.060 --> 00:07:15.529
diversity do not celebrate human beings who reject celebrating diversity.
111
00:07:15.790 --> 00:07:19.889
So celebrate diversity except The opinion that you shouldn't celebrate
112
00:07:19.930 --> 00:07:20.550
all diversity.
113
00:07:20.810 --> 00:07:21.910
That they cannot tolerate.
114
00:07:22.829 --> 00:07:25.360
So they can't even follow their own principles. But here
115
00:07:25.459 --> 00:07:29.620
are two diversities that we should never celebrate. And they
116
00:07:29.660 --> 00:07:37.829
are the most important diversities possible. First, theological diversity. We
117
00:07:37.870 --> 00:07:42.420
do not celebrate theological diversity. We do not celebrate polytheism
118
00:07:42.939 --> 00:07:45.019
amongst the world religions, do we? We who know the
119
00:07:45.100 --> 00:07:48.420
one true God, for whom the idea is not just
120
00:07:48.459 --> 00:07:52.759
a game. If you really believe in God, the one
121
00:07:52.819 --> 00:07:57.670
God who made all things, do you celebrate those who
122
00:07:57.709 --> 00:08:01.250
think that God is not one, that God is matter,
123
00:08:01.850 --> 00:08:04.730
or that God is a diversity of beings such that
124
00:08:06.019 --> 00:08:07.800
There are hundreds and hundreds of different gods?
125
00:08:08.259 --> 00:08:09.379
No. No.
126
00:08:09.750 --> 00:08:13.410
We do not celebrate polytheism, for instance, and there's many
127
00:08:13.509 --> 00:08:17.100
other theological convictions that are not to be celebrated. We
128
00:08:17.120 --> 00:08:20.259
do not celebrate polytheism in the world's religions.
129
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:20.939
No, we do not.
130
00:08:22.180 --> 00:08:25.600
Do we celebrate within the Christian faith heresy? That's diversity.
131
00:08:25.620 --> 00:08:29.459
It's a diversity of theological conviction. Do we celebrate heresies? Oh, look,
132
00:08:29.560 --> 00:08:33.039
you're an Arian. You think that Jesus is created. Yay,
133
00:08:33.139 --> 00:08:37.539
celebrate diversity. I think not. We do not celebrate theological diversity.
134
00:08:38.100 --> 00:08:41.860
How about the second area? Do we celebrate moral diversity?
135
00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:46.840
Do we say, yay, you love your wife. You're a lover. And, oh,
136
00:08:46.980 --> 00:08:50.169
you're a wife beater. Yay, you're a wife beater. Do
137
00:08:50.210 --> 00:08:53.409
we do that? It's a diversity. One man thinks it's
138
00:08:53.509 --> 00:08:56.990
improper to be a violent against his wife and loves
139
00:08:57.009 --> 00:08:59.330
her and sacrifices for her and guards and protects her.
140
00:08:59.710 --> 00:09:01.629
The other man thinks that the wife can just be
141
00:09:02.029 --> 00:09:04.769
a slave. And if she acts bad, she should be struck.
142
00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:08.120
That's a diversity of moral convictions. Do we celebrate it?
143
00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:11.299
Now you may be saying, father, don't be ridiculous. Well,
144
00:09:11.320 --> 00:09:15.080
it's not ridiculous because this very mistake is being propagated
145
00:09:15.139 --> 00:09:19.399
right now in our land. because of our lack of maturity.
146
00:09:19.820 --> 00:09:22.539
We don't celebrate moral diversity.
147
00:09:22.580 --> 00:09:25.919
We don't say, oh, look, you're a peacemaker. Wonderful.
148
00:09:26.100 --> 00:09:29.500
And then you're a serial killer. Yes, we celebrate diversity.
149
00:09:29.899 --> 00:09:31.700
One likes to make peace with men. One likes to
150
00:09:31.740 --> 00:09:36.720
slaughter men. We neither celebrate theological diversity or moral diversity.
151
00:09:37.100 --> 00:09:41.610
Those who tolerate this kind of diversity are clueless. It
152
00:09:41.620 --> 00:09:46.570
just so happens that On October 6th in Iowa, the
153
00:09:46.629 --> 00:09:54.320
city council allowed a Satanist to quote, open in prayer
154
00:09:55.399 --> 00:10:00.169
their city council meeting. He invoked Satan, literally saying, in
155
00:10:00.250 --> 00:10:03.470
public at a microphone with the blessing of the city council,
156
00:10:04.470 --> 00:10:10.649
hail Satan and prayed to the dark father that everyone
157
00:10:10.730 --> 00:10:18.399
would follow their Luciferian quest to pursue the tree of knowledge.
158
00:10:18.860 --> 00:10:21.840
Dear dark father, Let us stand now unbowed and unfettered
159
00:10:21.860 --> 00:10:24.580
by arcane doctrines born of fearful minds in darkened times.
160
00:10:25.460 --> 00:10:27.519
Let us embrace the Luciferian impulse to eat of the
161
00:10:27.559 --> 00:10:36.169
tree of knowledge. It is done. Hail Satan. Can you
162
00:10:36.210 --> 00:10:38.450
imagine the mayor.
163
00:10:39.590 --> 00:10:44.950
Of that town, or something like that in Iowa, the
164
00:10:45.009 --> 00:10:51.639
mayor of that town defended, defended this as, an adherence
165
00:10:51.990 --> 00:10:56.889
to a proper diversity code in the city. Anyone who
166
00:10:57.110 --> 00:11:02.049
thinks that way is a mental incompetent and is morally
167
00:11:02.190 --> 00:11:06.799
responsible before God for what he did and the platform
168
00:11:06.840 --> 00:11:14.879
he gave to obvious evil. That is how confused. That's
169
00:11:14.919 --> 00:11:19.610
the best interpretation. That's how confused we are. We really
170
00:11:19.649 --> 00:11:21.950
need to grow up and we really need to repent
171
00:11:22.990 --> 00:11:31.570
and show some maturity, celebrate proper diversities, abhor improper diversities,
172
00:11:31.889 --> 00:11:38.740
lies and immorality, and grow up. God be with you,
173
00:11:38.759 --> 00:11:39.100
dear ones.
174
