1
00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:02.879
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the Three Stories version of the tod Herman Show.

2
00:00:02.960 --> 00:00:05.839
<v Speaker 1>Story number one Satan hides in the false light of

3
00:00:05.879 --> 00:00:10.759
<v Speaker 1>empty compassion. Story number two was Hulk Hogan truly larger

4
00:00:10.800 --> 00:00:15.000
<v Speaker 1>than life. And story number three there is no Old Testament.

5
00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:18.000
<v Speaker 1>God stop that stuff. We'll talk about this with the

6
00:00:18.039 --> 00:00:19.480
<v Speaker 1>help of God Almighty.

7
00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:25.480
<v Speaker 2>But Todd Herman Show is one percent disapproved. But big

8
00:00:25.559 --> 00:00:33.320
<v Speaker 2>pharma technocrats in tyrans everywhere from the high mountains of

9
00:00:33.439 --> 00:00:38.200
<v Speaker 2>Free America. Here's the Emerald City EXI.

10
00:00:40.159 --> 00:00:53.479
<v Speaker 1>Todd Herman. Today is the day the Lord has made,

11
00:00:53.479 --> 00:00:55.880
<v Speaker 1>and these are the times to which God has decided

12
00:00:55.920 --> 00:01:01.200
<v Speaker 1>we shall live. It's important to understand that Satan who

13
00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:05.000
<v Speaker 1>is real, and you can choose to pretend he's not real,

14
00:01:05.400 --> 00:01:09.079
<v Speaker 1>but I'd caution you against that. He hides in the light,

15
00:01:09.519 --> 00:01:13.319
<v Speaker 1>not the true light, that Angel of light thing. Pretend

16
00:01:13.319 --> 00:01:15.959
<v Speaker 1>the Angel of light thing that is so real, and

17
00:01:16.040 --> 00:01:19.799
<v Speaker 1>he is so good at taking good intentions and just

18
00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:23.560
<v Speaker 1>time over time, just little by little etching away at

19
00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:26.560
<v Speaker 1>those until they take you off the mark. Now, I'm

20
00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:29.959
<v Speaker 1>not here to say that immigration is satanic, because it's not.

21
00:01:30.239 --> 00:01:33.599
<v Speaker 1>People have emigrated throughout time. Jesus Christ, of course emigrated

22
00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:37.200
<v Speaker 1>not illegally, I would add in his life he had

23
00:01:37.239 --> 00:01:41.840
<v Speaker 1>to to escape being unalive as it were, his parents

24
00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:44.719
<v Speaker 1>had to escape with him. And there were no immigration

25
00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:46.879
<v Speaker 1>laws at the time, so he wasn't breaking them. And

26
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:50.359
<v Speaker 1>might here to say that illegal immigration is satanic. It

27
00:01:50.400 --> 00:01:53.040
<v Speaker 1>is in fact violenting God's word for Christians to not

28
00:01:53.079 --> 00:01:56.000
<v Speaker 1>obey the laws of the government, and we have those laws.

29
00:01:56.000 --> 00:01:57.920
<v Speaker 1>It's lying, it's a lot of sin, but I'm not

30
00:01:57.959 --> 00:02:02.760
<v Speaker 1>saying it's satanic. I'm seeing that Satan hides in this

31
00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:06.400
<v Speaker 1>angel of light masquerade and he uses politics for this.

32
00:02:07.040 --> 00:02:08.960
<v Speaker 1>And I'm just going to walk a step by step

33
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:11.360
<v Speaker 1>through just some signs of this, and I'll start with

34
00:02:11.439 --> 00:02:14.919
<v Speaker 1>something that couldn't sound more angel of light, and that

35
00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:19.199
<v Speaker 1>is Look, let's just give some people dignity, right, let's

36
00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:23.319
<v Speaker 1>just provide them dignity. And yes, we're to treat sojourners kindly.

37
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:26.879
<v Speaker 1>We ourselves, as Christians, are sojourners on this earth. This

38
00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:30.599
<v Speaker 1>is not our home. We're visiting here. This is Representative

39
00:02:30.759 --> 00:02:35.159
<v Speaker 1>Maria Salazar, a Republican from Florida. We give them dignity.

40
00:02:35.919 --> 00:02:39.240
<v Speaker 3>At some point in the future, another legislator, we'll write

41
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:42.439
<v Speaker 3>another law to give them path to citizenship. Right now,

42
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:44.719
<v Speaker 3>what we need to do is to buy peace for

43
00:02:44.840 --> 00:02:48.560
<v Speaker 3>these people, allow them to stay, to continue working because

44
00:02:48.599 --> 00:02:51.120
<v Speaker 3>they're needed. You see. It's all I'm trying to do

45
00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:53.759
<v Speaker 3>is to bring some common sense, which is the least

46
00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:56.280
<v Speaker 3>common of all senses, to this conversation.

47
00:02:56.919 --> 00:02:59.159
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so let's just apply some common sense to this.

48
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:03.960
<v Speaker 1>Is it a fact that we simply cannot exist as

49
00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:08.319
<v Speaker 1>a society without people who came here illegally doing manual labor,

50
00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:12.120
<v Speaker 1>that we can't do that? I don't think that's a fact.

51
00:03:12.960 --> 00:03:15.560
<v Speaker 1>I think companies can adapt. I also think companies can

52
00:03:15.639 --> 00:03:17.680
<v Speaker 1>legally bring people in. In fact, they don't think it.

53
00:03:17.759 --> 00:03:21.840
<v Speaker 1>I know it. We just had Microsoft fire eight thousand

54
00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:24.639
<v Speaker 1>US workers and turn right around and say we need

55
00:03:24.639 --> 00:03:27.120
<v Speaker 1>eight thousand h one B visas while that stuff's still

56
00:03:27.159 --> 00:03:30.639
<v Speaker 1>going on. No, we're not going to fall for the

57
00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:33.840
<v Speaker 1>Angel of Light thing. We were overrun in our country

58
00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:36.599
<v Speaker 1>by design by people who don't respect our laws and

59
00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:39.439
<v Speaker 1>hate our electoral college system. And it started with this

60
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:42.159
<v Speaker 1>political venture, and then it started with the Chamber of

61
00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:44.879
<v Speaker 1>Commerce saying, oh, we get cheap labor, and union saying,

62
00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:48.439
<v Speaker 1>oh we get members. And we had some very corrupt

63
00:03:48.520 --> 00:03:51.039
<v Speaker 1>versions of the Catholic Church saying, oh, look, we get

64
00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:53.680
<v Speaker 1>to have now new members. And then the federal money

65
00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:55.199
<v Speaker 1>flowed into this, and all of a sudden, the money

66
00:03:55.240 --> 00:03:58.759
<v Speaker 1>train is there. So I can see that. People see

67
00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:02.560
<v Speaker 1>that as compassionate. I can see that, and Satan hides

68
00:04:02.639 --> 00:04:05.479
<v Speaker 1>right there. Because the trick in politics is when he

69
00:04:05.479 --> 00:04:08.879
<v Speaker 1>can make you part of an intersectional group. In this case,

70
00:04:08.919 --> 00:04:12.439
<v Speaker 1>you are part of the all immigration is good immigration group.

71
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:18.319
<v Speaker 1>You end up defending things that you literally would never defend,

72
00:04:19.680 --> 00:04:25.879
<v Speaker 1>except you do. Satan can move you intellectually into corners

73
00:04:25.879 --> 00:04:28.439
<v Speaker 1>of the world and corners of thought you never thought

74
00:04:28.439 --> 00:04:31.519
<v Speaker 1>he could move you. If you doubt that, think of

75
00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:38.439
<v Speaker 1>Judas As Scariot, who watched the miracles Jesus performed, who

76
00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:44.079
<v Speaker 1>traveled with him when Jesus told the seas to be calm,

77
00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:47.839
<v Speaker 1>Judas a scaret was in the boat. Think of that

78
00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:52.600
<v Speaker 1>he watched a man speak into a storm and tell

79
00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:55.600
<v Speaker 1>it to be calm, and the waters of the seas

80
00:04:55.759 --> 00:05:01.319
<v Speaker 1>and the turbulence in the sky stopped. And then we

81
00:05:01.439 --> 00:05:04.240
<v Speaker 1>read in the Bible that God allowed Satan to enter

82
00:05:05.279 --> 00:05:08.959
<v Speaker 1>Judas Iscariot, and suddenly his thinking is entirely changed. I

83
00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:11.279
<v Speaker 1>got to turn this guy in, man, I got to

84
00:05:11.319 --> 00:05:14.199
<v Speaker 1>get me some thirteen pieces of silver, because that's the

85
00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:20.120
<v Speaker 1>big reward. So people, once they get into Satan's intersectional group,

86
00:05:20.519 --> 00:05:24.639
<v Speaker 1>this is all immigration is good immigration. They find themselves

87
00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:28.279
<v Speaker 1>defending things that could never ever be defended. And I'm

88
00:05:28.279 --> 00:05:29.879
<v Speaker 1>going to show you a sign of this in a second,

89
00:05:29.879 --> 00:05:31.600
<v Speaker 1>and it's going to remind you of a movie. And

90
00:05:31.639 --> 00:05:33.160
<v Speaker 1>it was a movie that was never supposed to make

91
00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:35.959
<v Speaker 1>it into Hollywood. So The Sound of Freedom was never

92
00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:37.839
<v Speaker 1>supposed to make it into Hollywood, and yet it did,

93
00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:41.279
<v Speaker 1>and it did so so well, and it exposed some

94
00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:44.079
<v Speaker 1>of the evils of trafficking, and it was a godly movie.

95
00:05:44.079 --> 00:05:47.240
<v Speaker 1>God's Kids are not for sale. That studio Angel Studios

96
00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:50.639
<v Speaker 1>is out with a new series called Testament, and this

97
00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:54.160
<v Speaker 1>couldn't be more timely because Testament takes the Book of Acts,

98
00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:58.279
<v Speaker 1>that is Luke writing about how christ Church was built,

99
00:05:58.519 --> 00:06:01.480
<v Speaker 1>who builts it, what did Paul do, what was James's role, Timothy,

100
00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:04.759
<v Speaker 1>et cetera. And they take those people in the Bible

101
00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:08.000
<v Speaker 1>and they move them into a modern era, a surveillance state,

102
00:06:08.959 --> 00:06:13.040
<v Speaker 1>a censorship state, a state that hates the truth. In

103
00:06:13.079 --> 00:06:17.360
<v Speaker 1>other words, the state of being were in and see

104
00:06:17.360 --> 00:06:20.720
<v Speaker 1>how they defend the faith in a world like ours.

105
00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:23.240
<v Speaker 1>And it's a time to ask yourself a tough question

106
00:06:24.079 --> 00:06:28.000
<v Speaker 1>when you are told neither buy nor sell, are you

107
00:06:28.079 --> 00:06:30.480
<v Speaker 1>going to give in? Are you going to give in

108
00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:34.360
<v Speaker 1>to that last act of desperation of the enemy. It's

109
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:36.160
<v Speaker 1>a great way to explore this. So go stream this

116
00:06:56.120 --> 00:06:59.079
<v Speaker 1>is a jump, and I get that from what Mauria

117
00:06:59.160 --> 00:07:02.480
<v Speaker 1>Salazar said about let's give people dignity to what's been

118
00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:05.160
<v Speaker 1>discovered in bib County, Alabama. And by the way, if

119
00:07:05.199 --> 00:07:07.160
<v Speaker 1>you're watching or listening with kids, this is super tough

120
00:07:07.160 --> 00:07:09.959
<v Speaker 1>and I want you to be cautious. It's a big jump,

121
00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:12.759
<v Speaker 1>but it's an understandable jump when you think about Satan

122
00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:15.800
<v Speaker 1>masquerading as an angel of lights. And we'll talk about

123
00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:18.959
<v Speaker 1>how these steps get people to a point where they

124
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:22.160
<v Speaker 1>literally refuse to condemn things like this, or, in the

125
00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:25.519
<v Speaker 1>case of Angel Studios the Sound of Freedom, they literally

126
00:07:25.600 --> 00:07:27.480
<v Speaker 1>tried to keep that movie out of the theaters because

127
00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:28.680
<v Speaker 1>this stuff never happens.

128
00:07:28.839 --> 00:07:31.639
<v Speaker 4>This is where authlready say six children, the youngest only

129
00:07:31.720 --> 00:07:35.079
<v Speaker 4>three years old, were victimized repeatedly over more than a year.

130
00:07:35.360 --> 00:07:38.040
<v Speaker 4>It's an underground storm shelter near the home of William

131
00:07:38.120 --> 00:07:41.759
<v Speaker 4>Chase McElroy. Assistant District Attorney Brian Jones says there could

132
00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:44.720
<v Speaker 4>be more victims and more alleged perpetrators. He says the

133
00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:47.040
<v Speaker 4>grand jury has indicted a fourth person, but he can't

134
00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:50.120
<v Speaker 4>release that name because that person hasn't been arrested yet.

135
00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:52.519
<v Speaker 4>But he says we may never know the full extent

136
00:07:52.560 --> 00:07:54.000
<v Speaker 4>of the horrors that happened here.

137
00:07:54.079 --> 00:07:56.439
<v Speaker 1>Hey, it's not immigration, and I get that, but do

138
00:07:56.480 --> 00:08:00.560
<v Speaker 1>you remember Sound of Freedom. People fought against that because

139
00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:02.959
<v Speaker 1>it showed the evils of trafficking. There were people who

140
00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:05.519
<v Speaker 1>said trafficking didn't happen. There were people who said it's

141
00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:10.439
<v Speaker 1>a right wing fever swamp idea. There are people who

142
00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:13.839
<v Speaker 1>say about organized groups of men doing these things. That

143
00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:18.560
<v Speaker 1>doesn't happen. That's again, that's that's Christian fear memory that

144
00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:24.160
<v Speaker 1>doesn't happen. And get this, there are there are same

145
00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:31.120
<v Speaker 1>sex attracted people who would never harm a person, not intentionally,

146
00:08:31.160 --> 00:08:36.320
<v Speaker 1>not ever, and they find themselves in an intersectional group

147
00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:42.000
<v Speaker 1>where they are to defend people who are maps minor

148
00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:47.039
<v Speaker 1>attracted persons. Because this is how Satan goes from good

149
00:08:47.080 --> 00:08:51.879
<v Speaker 1>intention to maybe someone has a sin issue to now

150
00:08:51.919 --> 00:08:54.080
<v Speaker 1>we're going to move you an intersectional group where not

151
00:08:54.120 --> 00:08:56.120
<v Speaker 1>only will you say, sound of freedom can't come out,

152
00:08:56.159 --> 00:08:59.120
<v Speaker 1>so we shouldn't allow this. That's a myth that never happens.

153
00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:03.080
<v Speaker 1>Were abused in an organized fashion like these three guys

154
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:05.840
<v Speaker 1>who were clearly spiritually capture, we're doing that doesn't happen.

155
00:09:06.360 --> 00:09:09.919
<v Speaker 1>And if it does happen, well, this is just an orientation.

156
00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:14.919
<v Speaker 1>Satan hides is an angel of light. It's just an orientation.

157
00:09:15.120 --> 00:09:18.440
<v Speaker 1>And we know that same sex attracted people had violence

158
00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:22.240
<v Speaker 1>enacted against them and that should never happen. So to

159
00:09:22.360 --> 00:09:24.279
<v Speaker 1>come back from that and to make sure that doesn't

160
00:09:24.320 --> 00:09:27.919
<v Speaker 1>happen again, you have people joining this intersection of group saying, well,

161
00:09:27.960 --> 00:09:29.799
<v Speaker 1>if this does happen to kids from time to time,

162
00:09:29.919 --> 00:09:34.799
<v Speaker 1>it's just an orientation. Now, getting back to politics, intersectionalism,

163
00:09:34.840 --> 00:09:38.399
<v Speaker 1>how does this work? So the people who ran Joe

164
00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:41.840
<v Speaker 1>Biden set up a hotline so unaccompanied miners could call

165
00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:44.039
<v Speaker 1>if they had trouble with the strangers with whom they

166
00:09:44.080 --> 00:09:48.200
<v Speaker 1>were being placed. Okay, so you are a kid brought

167
00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:52.919
<v Speaker 1>across our border. Legally, we don't know who you are,

168
00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:55.399
<v Speaker 1>we don't know who your family is. So you've been

169
00:09:55.440 --> 00:09:58.279
<v Speaker 1>placed with some strangers. Here's a phone number you can

170
00:09:58.320 --> 00:10:01.399
<v Speaker 1>call if you have problem the strangers. In other words,

171
00:10:01.440 --> 00:10:05.519
<v Speaker 1>if you're being kept in a dungeon. Listen to this

172
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:06.279
<v Speaker 1>or watch this.

173
00:10:07.039 --> 00:10:11.639
<v Speaker 5>So you're telling this committee that the Biden administration, while

174
00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:15.120
<v Speaker 5>they were letting all of these unaccompanied miners into the country,

175
00:10:15.320 --> 00:10:18.159
<v Speaker 5>and as we've talked about today, they weren't keeping track

176
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:22.120
<v Speaker 5>of them. They issued these kids a hotline that they

177
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:26.080
<v Speaker 5>could call if they had trouble with the sponsor family

178
00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:30.000
<v Speaker 5>that they were put with. And you're saying that sixty

179
00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:34.720
<v Speaker 5>five thousand calls to this hotline designated to protect these

180
00:10:34.840 --> 00:10:38.440
<v Speaker 5>kids went unanswered. Is that what you're telling this committee?

181
00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:44.759
<v Speaker 1>Yes, sir, Wow, Representative Eli Crane doing the question together.

182
00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:50.320
<v Speaker 1>Sixty five thousand phone calls presumably for help, no answer,

183
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:56.759
<v Speaker 1>three hundred thousand kids lost, no explanation, ten thousand kids

184
00:10:56.840 --> 00:10:58.600
<v Speaker 1>recently found. In fact, I think it's now up to

185
00:10:58.639 --> 00:11:01.399
<v Speaker 1>eighty thousand kids that we've found through the work of

186
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:08.440
<v Speaker 1>Tom Holman and Presidentent Trump's team, no media fanfare. See

187
00:11:08.480 --> 00:11:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Satan takes you from good intentions. Let's be kind to

188
00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:14.679
<v Speaker 1>sojourners and bit by bit, then let's make sure that

189
00:11:14.720 --> 00:11:17.519
<v Speaker 1>all immigration is good, and therefore illegal immigration is good,

190
00:11:17.519 --> 00:11:19.879
<v Speaker 1>and therefore illegal immigrants are good, and therefore the people

191
00:11:19.879 --> 00:11:23.120
<v Speaker 1>who bring in illegal immorants are good. Okay. Or let's

192
00:11:23.120 --> 00:11:24.960
<v Speaker 1>make sure that we're not cruel to people because they're

193
00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:28.919
<v Speaker 1>same sex attracted and we shouldn't be. So let's be accepting. Okay,

194
00:11:28.960 --> 00:11:31.200
<v Speaker 1>So you're going to be accepting. I can accept the people,

195
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:34.399
<v Speaker 1>but not the sin, because I don't accept fornication or

196
00:11:34.440 --> 00:11:37.279
<v Speaker 1>adulter is normalized because the Bible says it's wrong. Therefore

197
00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:39.840
<v Speaker 1>it says the same thing about same sex activity. I'll

198
00:11:39.879 --> 00:11:41.240
<v Speaker 1>take that, but it doesn't mean I'm going to hate

199
00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:44.240
<v Speaker 1>to people. We shouldn't either. But they go from that

200
00:11:44.360 --> 00:11:46.799
<v Speaker 1>acceptance to okay, Well, then there're these people called maps.

201
00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:50.000
<v Speaker 1>It's just another orientation and there are people who are

202
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:52.240
<v Speaker 1>born in the wrong body. It's just another form of

203
00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:54.720
<v Speaker 1>the same sort of diverse thinking. And you get, bit

204
00:11:54.759 --> 00:11:56.799
<v Speaker 1>by bit by bit moved into a place where all

205
00:11:56.799 --> 00:11:58.799
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden, you find yourself saying, well, that form

206
00:11:58.799 --> 00:12:00.840
<v Speaker 1>of abuse never happens, and if it does, it's okay

207
00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:03.919
<v Speaker 1>because there's maps. And then you find yourself setting up

208
00:12:03.919 --> 00:12:06.120
<v Speaker 1>these hotlines to say, well, kids aren't being abused and

209
00:12:06.159 --> 00:12:08.720
<v Speaker 1>they aren't being placed with strangers. That never happens, and

210
00:12:08.799 --> 00:12:10.519
<v Speaker 1>if it does happen, we've set up a hotline, and

211
00:12:10.559 --> 00:12:13.320
<v Speaker 1>it's a hotline we don't answer. You see how this works.

212
00:12:14.919 --> 00:12:17.720
<v Speaker 1>This is from libs of TikTok, always good at finding

213
00:12:17.759 --> 00:12:20.639
<v Speaker 1>out what's going on in other states. A little bit

214
00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:23.360
<v Speaker 1>of breaking news. This came out just recently. The Oregon

215
00:12:23.440 --> 00:12:28.840
<v Speaker 1>Bureau of Labor and Industries threatens employers to not call

216
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:32.879
<v Speaker 1>ice on illegal alien employees. If employers are found to

217
00:12:32.919 --> 00:12:35.360
<v Speaker 1>have violated law in this way, they're held accountable to

218
00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:38.720
<v Speaker 1>the full extent of the law. Christina Stephenson, Commissioner of

219
00:12:38.759 --> 00:12:43.720
<v Speaker 1>the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industry. They are literally

220
00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:49.200
<v Speaker 1>telling employers in order to not be prosecuted in Oregon,

221
00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:54.240
<v Speaker 1>you have to violate federal law by not turning in

222
00:12:54.559 --> 00:12:57.720
<v Speaker 1>illegal immigrants employees or people who want to be employees

223
00:12:57.960 --> 00:13:00.960
<v Speaker 1>who are applying as illegal immigrants. Not only are they

224
00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:03.440
<v Speaker 1>telling them you have to break federal law, they're telling

225
00:13:03.480 --> 00:13:08.200
<v Speaker 1>them you have to break God's law. If you're a Christian,

226
00:13:08.279 --> 00:13:10.799
<v Speaker 1>we are to follow the rules of the authorities. And

227
00:13:10.840 --> 00:13:13.639
<v Speaker 1>in our country we have one authority, and that is

228
00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:17.039
<v Speaker 1>the Constitution as a so called political authority. Those of

229
00:13:17.159 --> 00:13:19.919
<v Speaker 1>us who are Christians have the ultimate authority, God Almighty,

230
00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:24.159
<v Speaker 1>and we have a very tough enemy. He's meaningless to God.

231
00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:26.919
<v Speaker 1>God is able to move him and shake him, and

232
00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:28.879
<v Speaker 1>the demons can't do anything to God and can't do

233
00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:32.039
<v Speaker 1>much to us if we're in Jesus. But Satan's had

234
00:13:32.039 --> 00:13:35.720
<v Speaker 1>a long time to practice masquerading as an angel of light.

235
00:13:36.759 --> 00:13:43.799
<v Speaker 1>Story number two. Was Hulk Hogan really bigger than life?

236
00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:48.720
<v Speaker 1>Was Hulk Holgan really bigger than life? I've heard so

237
00:13:48.840 --> 00:13:51.840
<v Speaker 1>much commentary about Hulk Hogan having been bigger than life

238
00:13:51.840 --> 00:13:54.120
<v Speaker 1>that I started to think about was he actually bigger

239
00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:57.120
<v Speaker 1>than life? I Mean, I know people being that as

240
00:13:57.120 --> 00:13:59.240
<v Speaker 1>a figure of speech, but he was a huge man.

241
00:14:00.399 --> 00:14:03.480
<v Speaker 1>He was muscled up, he was this like so called

242
00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:06.919
<v Speaker 1>golden gods. He went through many, many iterations as a

243
00:14:06.919 --> 00:14:10.759
<v Speaker 1>professional wrestler. He changed hollywoods he brought He brought professional

244
00:14:10.799 --> 00:14:15.200
<v Speaker 1>wrestling into that form of entertainment into Hollywood's. He created

245
00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:19.840
<v Speaker 1>an indelible character, He helped move professional wrestling into movies, et cetera.

246
00:14:20.559 --> 00:14:24.879
<v Speaker 1>No doubt he changed that fake sport. Was he larger

247
00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:29.600
<v Speaker 1>than life? Hulk Hogan took his notoriety and his fame

248
00:14:29.679 --> 00:14:32.720
<v Speaker 1>and by the way, his infamy, and he deserved the

249
00:14:32.759 --> 00:14:37.440
<v Speaker 1>infamy he had. Hulk Hogan did some truly horrible things

250
00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:38.840
<v Speaker 1>in the man just passed. So we're not going to

251
00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:40.799
<v Speaker 1>go through a Catalogum, you can go to any Google

252
00:14:40.840 --> 00:14:42.919
<v Speaker 1>site and look it up, or go to any AI

253
00:14:43.000 --> 00:14:46.000
<v Speaker 1>and say, write an article about the controversies surrounding Hulk Hogan,

254
00:14:46.039 --> 00:14:48.840
<v Speaker 1>and anybody can do that easy enough. But I do

255
00:14:48.919 --> 00:14:50.679
<v Speaker 1>want to start with where he was at when he died,

256
00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:55.159
<v Speaker 1>because it doesn't matter. No, no, it doesn't matter. Yeah,

257
00:14:55.200 --> 00:14:57.919
<v Speaker 1>I know, he gave a pretty unforgettable speech at the

258
00:14:57.960 --> 00:15:03.440
<v Speaker 1>Republican Convention this week when they took a shot and

259
00:15:03.639 --> 00:15:09.200
<v Speaker 1>my hero full lighting character and they tried to kill

260
00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:18.679
<v Speaker 1>the next president of the United States, Oh what are

261
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:21.120
<v Speaker 1>you gonna do? Ron Wild Brother?

262
00:15:22.080 --> 00:15:28.519
<v Speaker 6>Rap media roll again, crop media, make a maca right again.

263
00:15:33.559 --> 00:15:44.360
<v Speaker 7>President Pulklick sired kids like Houston's wood.

264
00:15:46.039 --> 00:15:47.840
<v Speaker 1>You know it's funny. I always wondered if you wore

265
00:15:47.919 --> 00:15:50.840
<v Speaker 1>tore away tear away shirts when he was doing that professionalistling.

266
00:15:50.879 --> 00:15:53.320
<v Speaker 1>But no, I've actually, if you've ever seen the dude

267
00:15:53.720 --> 00:15:56.919
<v Speaker 1>when he was in his prime working outs, that wasn't

268
00:15:56.960 --> 00:16:01.039
<v Speaker 1>all just puffed up steroidy. Yeah, he was apparently a

269
00:16:01.159 --> 00:16:05.840
<v Speaker 1>huge reuter, but a dude was strong, so he could

270
00:16:05.840 --> 00:16:07.480
<v Speaker 1>tear a normal teacher. I think that might have been

271
00:16:07.480 --> 00:16:09.399
<v Speaker 1>a terri away. I had trouble with it, but it

272
00:16:09.399 --> 00:16:12.960
<v Speaker 1>doesn't matter. It really doesn't.

273
00:16:14.279 --> 00:16:14.440
<v Speaker 2>Now.

274
00:16:14.480 --> 00:16:16.120
<v Speaker 1>I know that angersome people. What do you mean? That

275
00:16:16.200 --> 00:16:18.879
<v Speaker 1>was a great speech that riled people up. It owned

276
00:16:18.879 --> 00:16:21.200
<v Speaker 1>the Libs. It did. It was a huge act of

277
00:16:21.200 --> 00:16:24.639
<v Speaker 1>trolling and owned them. I remember the videos came out idiocracy.

278
00:16:25.039 --> 00:16:27.399
<v Speaker 1>They knew what they were doing, they knew that they

279
00:16:27.399 --> 00:16:30.519
<v Speaker 1>were owning the Libs. But it doesn't matter. He made

280
00:16:30.519 --> 00:16:34.720
<v Speaker 1>tons of money, hulk multi multimillionaire, lost someone in a lawsuits,

281
00:16:35.120 --> 00:16:39.879
<v Speaker 1>abused it, abused women with it through the power of it.

282
00:16:40.519 --> 00:16:43.360
<v Speaker 1>But it was great business, but it doesn't matter. But

283
00:16:43.440 --> 00:16:47.159
<v Speaker 1>something does matter because Hulk Hogan found out that life

284
00:16:47.200 --> 00:16:51.240
<v Speaker 1>is not larger than life. Hulk do isn't wasn't and

285
00:16:51.320 --> 00:16:53.600
<v Speaker 1>life is not larger than life. Even if you are

286
00:16:53.720 --> 00:16:57.000
<v Speaker 1>a billionaire through business. Now you might be a not

287
00:16:57.159 --> 00:16:59.759
<v Speaker 1>a billionaire, but you might be a small, medium sized

288
00:16:59.759 --> 00:17:02.279
<v Speaker 1>business owner. And you might even think that you operate

289
00:17:02.320 --> 00:17:05.119
<v Speaker 1>on corporate credit because you've got a corporate credit card

290
00:17:05.200 --> 00:17:07.000
<v Speaker 1>or a corporate debit card, and you might think then

291
00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:10.720
<v Speaker 1>you are given sort of a firewall between your personal assets.

292
00:17:10.720 --> 00:17:13.440
<v Speaker 1>You've sweated your whole life to have maybe a house

293
00:17:13.559 --> 00:17:16.599
<v Speaker 1>or two, college fund for the kids, some retirement moneies.

294
00:17:16.680 --> 00:17:19.920
<v Speaker 1>That's all safe. If God forbid, there's a lawsuit because

295
00:17:19.960 --> 00:17:22.599
<v Speaker 1>you have corporate credit, I'm here to tell you probably don't.

296
00:17:23.799 --> 00:17:27.200

<v Speaker 1>your bank is probably treating you as an individual, which

299
00:17:34.279 --> 00:17:36.640
<v Speaker 1>means you are at risk. You're also losing out on

308
00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:06.680
<v Speaker 1>Maybe many one hundred billionaire, many many times over. But

309
00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:11.160
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't matter, doesn't matter at all. What matters is

310
00:18:11.200 --> 00:18:18.039
<v Speaker 1>what Hulk figured out mattered. Hulk Hogan was baptized. Well

311
00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:26.519
<v Speaker 1>much trust this board. When Hulk was baptized, he began

312
00:18:26.599 --> 00:18:31.039
<v Speaker 1>to understand what matters, and he began to speak about

313
00:18:31.039 --> 00:18:33.839
<v Speaker 1>what matters. This is a guy that someone said, or

314
00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:36.680
<v Speaker 1>many many people said, was larger than life. Guys, life

315
00:18:36.799 --> 00:18:40.079
<v Speaker 1>is not larger than life. Only God and e Trinity

316
00:18:40.200 --> 00:18:45.440
<v Speaker 1>are larger than life. This is Hulk again on his baptism.

317
00:18:46.279 --> 00:18:48.759
<v Speaker 6>Well, you know, when things were tough, you know, I

318
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:52.559
<v Speaker 6>realized that this too shall pass. You know that this

319
00:18:52.759 --> 00:18:56.279
<v Speaker 6>was just a temporary situation. I realized that, you know,

320
00:18:56.480 --> 00:18:59.119
<v Speaker 6>as long as I made the right choice, you know,

321
00:18:59.240 --> 00:19:03.480
<v Speaker 6>and followed my faith. More than what people are saying

322
00:19:03.680 --> 00:19:06.279
<v Speaker 6>with the newspapers, the tablets were saying and didn't get

323
00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:08.839
<v Speaker 6>sucked into that now that stuff was real. The only

324
00:19:08.880 --> 00:19:12.160
<v Speaker 6>thing that is really real is the stuff that's going

325
00:19:12.240 --> 00:19:15.079
<v Speaker 6>to last forever. You know, your faith and your belief

326
00:19:15.119 --> 00:19:17.759
<v Speaker 6>in God and knowing that, you know, once you're a Christian,

327
00:19:17.799 --> 00:19:20.759
<v Speaker 6>you've accepted Christ as your savior, and you know you're

328
00:19:20.759 --> 00:19:23.279
<v Speaker 6>not gonna perish, but you're going to have everlasting life.

329
00:19:23.319 --> 00:19:27.359
<v Speaker 6>That belief in itself and that faith is what's pretty

330
00:19:27.440 --> 00:19:29.880
<v Speaker 6>much the only thing that's real to me. You know,

331
00:19:30.279 --> 00:19:32.400
<v Speaker 6>everything else is kind of like a life situation, but

332
00:19:32.440 --> 00:19:35.920
<v Speaker 6>that's my life after life after life, life situation.

333
00:19:36.359 --> 00:19:38.880
<v Speaker 1>A man who maybe even at a point thought he

334
00:19:38.960 --> 00:19:42.200
<v Speaker 1>was larger than life, realized that this life isn't even

335
00:19:42.279 --> 00:19:45.200
<v Speaker 1>larger than life. Only God in a trinity through Jesus

336
00:19:45.319 --> 00:19:49.599
<v Speaker 1>Christ Rest well, Hulk Rest with Jesus. Story number three.

337
00:19:50.880 --> 00:19:54.880
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of chatter, and it's a very convenient

338
00:19:54.920 --> 00:20:01.400
<v Speaker 1>form of chatter when it comes to a lighting, but

339
00:20:01.519 --> 00:20:04.119
<v Speaker 1>it is it's catfishing.

340
00:20:04.160 --> 00:20:04.359
<v Speaker 5>God.

341
00:20:04.400 --> 00:20:07.680
<v Speaker 1>What's that called when when you catfish? It was called

342
00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:11.599
<v Speaker 1>when you are pretending to be something you're nots online, Yeah, catfishing.

343
00:20:12.119 --> 00:20:13.559
<v Speaker 1>So people are catfishing.

344
00:20:13.599 --> 00:20:13.839
<v Speaker 2>God.

345
00:20:14.000 --> 00:20:17.200
<v Speaker 1>That is they're making Jesus into something he's not, and

346
00:20:17.240 --> 00:20:21.119
<v Speaker 1>they're also making God into something he's not. And this

347
00:20:21.200 --> 00:20:24.759
<v Speaker 1>is a very very smart technique. What they do is

348
00:20:24.799 --> 00:20:28.640
<v Speaker 1>they take the Old Testament and they talk about the

349
00:20:28.680 --> 00:20:33.440
<v Speaker 1>Old Testament God okay. And this is very kind of

350
00:20:34.640 --> 00:20:39.200
<v Speaker 1>an aggressive form of giving other people spiritual borderline personality disorder.

351
00:20:40.640 --> 00:20:44.200
<v Speaker 1>One of the hallmarks of BPD people are who have

352
00:20:44.279 --> 00:20:46.480
<v Speaker 1>what we call borderline personalities that don't and who knows

353
00:20:46.480 --> 00:20:48.759
<v Speaker 1>if that exists, but that's how we describe as symptoms.

354
00:20:49.920 --> 00:20:52.160
<v Speaker 1>Is one of the big symptoms is they can't see

355
00:20:52.160 --> 00:20:57.039
<v Speaker 1>people in shades of gray. So if they are really

356
00:20:57.079 --> 00:20:59.279
<v Speaker 1>angry at you because you did something that hurt them,

357
00:21:00.359 --> 00:21:03.640
<v Speaker 1>you're the worst person in the world until you do

358
00:21:03.759 --> 00:21:07.519
<v Speaker 1>something that pleases them or causes them to feel validated,

359
00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:10.200
<v Speaker 1>in which case you are a good person or maybe

360
00:21:10.200 --> 00:21:13.039
<v Speaker 1>even their favorite person. And this can happen throughout a

361
00:21:13.160 --> 00:21:18.680
<v Speaker 1>day with someone. And when they take the God of

362
00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:21.839
<v Speaker 1>the universe and they take the Bible and they split

363
00:21:21.880 --> 00:21:25.200
<v Speaker 1>it in two. There's the Old Testament, here's the New Testament,

364
00:21:25.839 --> 00:21:27.759
<v Speaker 1>and there's the Old Testament God, and here's the New

365
00:21:27.839 --> 00:21:31.599
<v Speaker 1>Testament God. They're taking a God who has never been split.

366
00:21:33.200 --> 00:21:37.079
<v Speaker 1>God has always existed and always will exist. The Triune

367
00:21:37.079 --> 00:21:42.039
<v Speaker 1>God is ins throughout the Bible. You know, the spirit

368
00:21:42.039 --> 00:21:43.960
<v Speaker 1>of God moved across the Water's not God himself. The

369
00:21:43.960 --> 00:21:45.640
<v Speaker 1>spirit of God in the beginning was the Word. The

370
00:21:45.640 --> 00:21:47.400
<v Speaker 1>word was with God, the word was God, the word

371
00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:51.079
<v Speaker 1>was Jesus in the beginning. The Word was with God,

372
00:21:51.599 --> 00:21:54.359
<v Speaker 1>and the Word was God. And the spirits of God

373
00:21:54.400 --> 00:21:57.240
<v Speaker 1>moved across the moorder. But God animated that because God

374
00:21:57.279 --> 00:21:59.920
<v Speaker 1>made the heavens in the earth, and God spoke that

375
00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:04.200
<v Speaker 1>into existence. Let there be light. So you can see

376
00:22:04.359 --> 00:22:08.720
<v Speaker 1>the description of the Holy Trinity throughout the Bible. It's complex,

377
00:22:09.319 --> 00:22:16.200
<v Speaker 1>and it's also also easy. God can do anything. It's complex. Wait,

378
00:22:16.200 --> 00:22:19.200
<v Speaker 1>there's three of them, no, not three, three instances, three personalities,

379
00:22:19.599 --> 00:22:23.359
<v Speaker 1>And it's easy. God can do anything. But when they

380
00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:26.559
<v Speaker 1>take the Old Testament and they say that's the Old

381
00:22:26.599 --> 00:22:29.559
<v Speaker 1>Testament God, here's the New Testament God, how they do

382
00:22:29.680 --> 00:22:31.960
<v Speaker 1>it often plays out like you're about to hear from

383
00:22:31.960 --> 00:22:34.839
<v Speaker 1>a so called biblical scholar and the Maddie May model.

384
00:22:35.640 --> 00:22:37.839
<v Speaker 1>I'll show this two new seconds, but don't allow it

385
00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:41.799
<v Speaker 1>to confuse you. There are not two gods. There are

386
00:22:41.839 --> 00:22:47.880
<v Speaker 1>not two chances at retirement, you get one. That's it.

387
00:22:49.519 --> 00:22:51.920
<v Speaker 1>So when you enter into retirement, it would be a

388
00:22:51.960 --> 00:22:55.440
<v Speaker 1>good idea to not have to go back and start

389
00:22:55.480 --> 00:22:58.160
<v Speaker 1>working again. So how would you achieve that, Well, you'd

390
00:22:58.160 --> 00:23:00.000
<v Speaker 1>want to make sure you know exactly how much money

391
00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:02.480
<v Speaker 1>you're going to have every single month for the rest

392
00:23:02.480 --> 00:23:05.519
<v Speaker 1>of your life. That's what my friend Zach Abraham at

393
00:23:05.559 --> 00:23:08.160
<v Speaker 1>Bulwark Capital Management, he's the chief investment officer there. That's

394
00:23:08.160 --> 00:23:11.279
<v Speaker 1>how he defines a successful retirement, knowing how much money

395
00:23:11.319 --> 00:23:14.519
<v Speaker 1>you have for the rest of your life every single month. Now,

396
00:23:14.640 --> 00:23:17.359
<v Speaker 1>Zach accomplishes this in a way that runs counter to

397
00:23:17.440 --> 00:23:21.319
<v Speaker 1>popular culture. He's not out buying five six stocks. He's

398
00:23:21.319 --> 00:23:23.680
<v Speaker 1>not out letting the money flow into these ETFs where

399
00:23:23.720 --> 00:23:26.079
<v Speaker 1>your money goes to seven companies forty percent of it.

400
00:23:26.440 --> 00:23:31.200
<v Speaker 1>He actively manages every single portfolio, and he's deeply animated

401
00:23:31.680 --> 00:23:35.440
<v Speaker 1>by avoiding risk risk management, which he says and which

402
00:23:35.480 --> 00:23:39.200
<v Speaker 1>she believes actively managing portfolios can reduce risk and volatility,

403
00:23:39.200 --> 00:23:42.359
<v Speaker 1>and it seems clear to me it can. He also

404
00:23:42.519 --> 00:23:47.400
<v Speaker 1>meets with every single client prior to doing business three times,

405
00:23:47.720 --> 00:23:51.119
<v Speaker 1>no charge. Why three Why not just get you on

406
00:23:51.119 --> 00:23:54.240
<v Speaker 1>the pone the phone and pitch you because the first

407
00:23:54.240 --> 00:23:55.960
<v Speaker 1>phone call he wants to make sure you guys like

408
00:23:56.000 --> 00:23:58.599
<v Speaker 1>each other. You're going to be doing business together. You

409
00:23:58.680 --> 00:24:01.039
<v Speaker 1>got a regular phone calls, what's going to my portfolio?

410
00:24:01.279 --> 00:24:03.960
<v Speaker 1>The second call is to really examine your hopes and

411
00:24:04.039 --> 00:24:06.640
<v Speaker 1>dreams for retirement and are they dreams or are they planned?

412
00:24:07.480 --> 00:24:09.920
<v Speaker 1>And then the third phone call or video meeting or

413
00:24:09.960 --> 00:24:12.839
<v Speaker 1>in person meeting, whatever you like, is Zach saying here's

414
00:24:12.839 --> 00:24:14.440
<v Speaker 1>what we think we can do to help. Or it

415
00:24:14.519 --> 00:24:17.119
<v Speaker 1>might be that, hey, we looked into your situation. You're solid.

416
00:24:17.160 --> 00:24:19.839
<v Speaker 1>You don't need us. If this is a new form

427
00:24:50.960 --> 00:24:54.359
<v Speaker 1>so called biblical scholar, Mattie may Model, wants you to

428
00:24:54.400 --> 00:24:57.440
<v Speaker 1>believe that because there's this Old Testament God, the God

429
00:24:57.480 --> 00:24:58.359
<v Speaker 1>of the Old Testament.

430
00:24:58.480 --> 00:25:02.039
<v Speaker 8>Why is the Old Testament God such a Hi? My

431
00:25:02.119 --> 00:25:04.839
<v Speaker 8>name is Mattie my Moodal. I'm a Bible scholar specializing

432
00:25:04.839 --> 00:25:08.079
<v Speaker 8>in gender and sexuality in the New Testament. But today

433
00:25:08.119 --> 00:25:10.319
<v Speaker 8>we're going to be talking about something a little bit

434
00:25:10.400 --> 00:25:13.960
<v Speaker 8>different because it is such a highly requested topic. What's

435
00:25:14.039 --> 00:25:16.319
<v Speaker 8>up with the Old Testament God? I get this question

436
00:25:16.440 --> 00:25:18.160
<v Speaker 8>a lot, and I think part of the reason is

437
00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:21.079
<v Speaker 8>because when Christians deconstruct and then they go back and

438
00:25:21.119 --> 00:25:24.599
<v Speaker 8>read the Old Testament, they aren't exactly happy with what

439
00:25:24.640 --> 00:25:26.880
<v Speaker 8>they find. And I think because of this, a lot

440
00:25:26.920 --> 00:25:30.240
<v Speaker 8>of progressive Christians are really tempted to just completely leave

441
00:25:30.279 --> 00:25:32.880
<v Speaker 8>the Old Testament behind and just have a faith but

442
00:25:33.039 --> 00:25:36.400
<v Speaker 8>really focused on the words of Jesus Christ. So what

443
00:25:36.519 --> 00:25:39.279
<v Speaker 8>is the deal with Deuteronomy seven and Deuteronomy twenty. Well,

444
00:25:39.319 --> 00:25:42.160
<v Speaker 8>there's actually a really good cultural explanation for this. The

445
00:25:42.240 --> 00:25:46.079
<v Speaker 8>language in the Old Testament around genocide is language commonly

446
00:25:46.119 --> 00:25:50.519
<v Speaker 8>associated with military propaganda. This military language is commonly used

447
00:25:50.559 --> 00:25:52.680
<v Speaker 8>in the ancient Nearies as a way to make themselves

448
00:25:52.720 --> 00:25:55.880
<v Speaker 8>look really impressive and intimidating to their neighbors. So when

449
00:25:55.880 --> 00:25:58.759
<v Speaker 8>you see passages like this in the Bible, it's really

450
00:25:58.799 --> 00:26:01.599
<v Speaker 8>just dude saying, oh, yeah, we totally won that battle

451
00:26:01.599 --> 00:26:03.480
<v Speaker 8>and we killed all the women and children too. But

452
00:26:03.559 --> 00:26:06.319
<v Speaker 8>we see time and time again that's actually not true.

453
00:26:06.359 --> 00:26:08.160
<v Speaker 8>So where you can find God in the midst of

454
00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:11.960
<v Speaker 8>this patriarchal it is the voice of Rahab in God's

455
00:26:12.000 --> 00:26:16.039
<v Speaker 8>heart to connect with every person, regardless of ethnicity or

456
00:26:16.079 --> 00:26:18.960
<v Speaker 8>religious affiliation. So next time someone tries to tell you

457
00:26:19.000 --> 00:26:21.200
<v Speaker 8>that the God of the Old Testament is you can

458
00:26:21.240 --> 00:26:23.799
<v Speaker 8>say that's just not biblical sis. It was actually the

459
00:26:24.000 --> 00:26:24.880
<v Speaker 8>who wrote about him.

460
00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:31.839
<v Speaker 1>Wow, a biblical scholar who didn't quote one piece of

461
00:26:31.880 --> 00:26:41.440
<v Speaker 1>scripture In the Old Testament. You had people who God

462
00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:47.119
<v Speaker 1>chose not because they were special, but because Abraham had faith,

463
00:26:47.200 --> 00:26:50.599
<v Speaker 1>or at the time Abram had faith in God did

464
00:26:50.640 --> 00:26:55.880
<v Speaker 1>what God said. God chose these people. These people intermittently

465
00:26:56.240 --> 00:26:59.400
<v Speaker 1>were very very respectful of God's and followed them and

466
00:26:59.519 --> 00:27:03.279
<v Speaker 1>sometimes very very rebellious against God. And some of the

467
00:27:03.359 --> 00:27:06.880
<v Speaker 1>rebellion led them into captivity, and God loved them so

468
00:27:06.960 --> 00:27:09.279
<v Speaker 1>much he brought them out of captivity, and when He

469
00:27:09.319 --> 00:27:13.200
<v Speaker 1>brought them out of captivity, and he performed amazing miracles

470
00:27:13.240 --> 00:27:17.119
<v Speaker 1>that no one who saw could deny. In fact, some

471
00:27:17.240 --> 00:27:22.359
<v Speaker 1>of their captors said, can we come with you? Can

472
00:27:22.400 --> 00:27:24.319
<v Speaker 1>we come with you because we see your God is

473
00:27:24.359 --> 00:27:28.119
<v Speaker 1>the real God? And the Jewish people said yes. When

474
00:27:28.160 --> 00:27:30.519
<v Speaker 1>God brought them out of captivity, they didn't know how

475
00:27:30.559 --> 00:27:35.440
<v Speaker 1>to live as a free people. So God began to

476
00:27:35.480 --> 00:27:38.000
<v Speaker 1>introduce rules, and they had to be very strict, because

477
00:27:38.000 --> 00:27:40.160
<v Speaker 1>you're going to be called out. You're going to be different.

478
00:27:40.559 --> 00:27:43.759
<v Speaker 1>You are not going to engage in pagan ceremonies. You

479
00:27:43.799 --> 00:27:46.839
<v Speaker 1>are not going to engage in pagan death ceremonies. You're

480
00:27:46.839 --> 00:27:50.440
<v Speaker 1>not going to engage in pagan sex ceremonies. You're going

481
00:27:50.480 --> 00:27:53.640
<v Speaker 1>to treat each other differently. You're going to worship me differently,

482
00:27:53.680 --> 00:27:56.240
<v Speaker 1>you're going to revere me. And he set up these

483
00:27:56.640 --> 00:27:59.640
<v Speaker 1>very tight rules governing everything they were to do because

484
00:27:59.640 --> 00:28:02.720
<v Speaker 1>they were fresh out of captivity, and sometimes in fact,

485
00:28:02.759 --> 00:28:08.119
<v Speaker 1>God said, you are going to go utterly decimates a people.

486
00:28:09.160 --> 00:28:12.839
<v Speaker 1>Almost always in the Old Testaments, God offered the people

487
00:28:13.039 --> 00:28:14.400
<v Speaker 1>who were not getting out of the way of His

488
00:28:14.519 --> 00:28:20.240
<v Speaker 1>chosen people and trying to pollute them. With paganism. He

489
00:28:20.319 --> 00:28:24.039
<v Speaker 1>issued them warnings, let's get out of the way of

490
00:28:24.119 --> 00:28:28.319
<v Speaker 1>my people. Many times those other people didn't follow those warnings.

491
00:28:29.160 --> 00:28:32.200
<v Speaker 1>So God eventually had said sometimes to the Jewish people,

492
00:28:32.359 --> 00:28:36.359
<v Speaker 1>you need to go utterly decimate them, leave no survivors.

493
00:28:37.039 --> 00:28:40.720
<v Speaker 1>That wasn't propaganda. And I'd love to find out where

494
00:28:40.799 --> 00:28:43.720
<v Speaker 1>this biblical scholar has learned that this just didn't happen.

495
00:28:43.720 --> 00:28:46.079
<v Speaker 1>They were just making it all up, because there's no

496
00:28:46.240 --> 00:28:52.640
<v Speaker 1>archaeological evidence against these battles. The arch archaeological evidence stands

497
00:28:52.680 --> 00:28:54.279
<v Speaker 1>on the side of the Bible and in just about

498
00:28:54.279 --> 00:28:59.880
<v Speaker 1>every case. And God was not being a dei high

499
00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:04.720
<v Speaker 1>in letter. He was being a God who was establishing

500
00:29:04.759 --> 00:29:08.160
<v Speaker 1>his people in a world hostile to them. He created

501
00:29:08.200 --> 00:29:10.640
<v Speaker 1>a law that could not be completed by human beings,

502
00:29:10.839 --> 00:29:13.680
<v Speaker 1>and he showed people you could try to be like me.

503
00:29:13.799 --> 00:29:17.240
<v Speaker 1>And I am perfect, I don't make mistakes. There's nothing

504
00:29:17.240 --> 00:29:20.079
<v Speaker 1>in me that's unholy. I am pure light, I am

505
00:29:20.119 --> 00:29:23.640
<v Speaker 1>pure goodness. I never fail. I keep all my promises.

506
00:29:23.720 --> 00:29:26.799
<v Speaker 1>I cannot be dissuaded from the goods. I cannot be seduced,

507
00:29:26.799 --> 00:29:29.119
<v Speaker 1>I cannot be cons I cannot be lied to, I

508
00:29:29.119 --> 00:29:31.640
<v Speaker 1>cannot be mocked. You can try this, And here I'll

509
00:29:31.720 --> 00:29:34.160
<v Speaker 1>lay it all out for you. Here's exactly the square

510
00:29:34.160 --> 00:29:36.640
<v Speaker 1>footage of a temple. Here's where the Holy of Holies goes.

511
00:29:36.839 --> 00:29:38.599
<v Speaker 1>This is what the curtains are to be made out of.

512
00:29:38.799 --> 00:29:40.839
<v Speaker 1>Here's how thick they are to be. This is where

513
00:29:40.839 --> 00:29:42.839
<v Speaker 1>you render the fats, and this is how you do that.

514
00:29:42.920 --> 00:29:46.359
<v Speaker 1>And this team runs this. And people could not do it.

515
00:29:46.400 --> 00:29:49.240
<v Speaker 1>And God knew they wouldn't be able to. So that

516
00:29:49.440 --> 00:29:54.160
<v Speaker 1>same God said, all right, you tried it. You tried

517
00:29:54.200 --> 00:29:58.480
<v Speaker 1>your kings, you tried your governments, you tried your wars,

518
00:29:58.920 --> 00:30:01.240
<v Speaker 1>you tried living without, you tried splitting up in the

519
00:30:01.279 --> 00:30:04.240
<v Speaker 1>separate tribes. You tried it all. You Pharisees, you thought

520
00:30:04.240 --> 00:30:07.960
<v Speaker 1>you were perfect. You ran around having people run through

521
00:30:07.960 --> 00:30:10.680
<v Speaker 1>crowds ahead of you. Make way, the great Pharisees are coming.

522
00:30:11.000 --> 00:30:13.240
<v Speaker 1>You were the Holy Holy. Look what you did. You

523
00:30:13.279 --> 00:30:15.759
<v Speaker 1>didn't even recognize the Messiah when he came. And God

524
00:30:15.920 --> 00:30:20.759
<v Speaker 1>still had mercy. So God fulfilled the law. And if

525
00:30:20.799 --> 00:30:25.079
<v Speaker 1>you think the Old Testament God went away, look what

526
00:30:25.119 --> 00:30:30.440
<v Speaker 1>he did to his son. Look what God did to

527
00:30:30.559 --> 00:30:37.519
<v Speaker 1>his beloved son, his only son, the Lord Jesus Christ.

528
00:30:37.880 --> 00:30:44.799
<v Speaker 1>People to this moment, discount the cross, they will focus on. Okay,

529
00:30:44.960 --> 00:30:48.640
<v Speaker 1>the resurrection, great, that's the main story. He was up

530
00:30:48.680 --> 00:30:51.680
<v Speaker 1>there for a long time. Yep, he was. He was

531
00:30:51.759 --> 00:30:55.039
<v Speaker 1>painfully lashed and scourged, yes to the point that other

532
00:30:55.079 --> 00:30:58.200
<v Speaker 1>people would have died. People never wanted to give respect

533
00:30:58.240 --> 00:30:59.880
<v Speaker 1>to the fact that he also had part out of

534
00:31:00.359 --> 00:31:04.400
<v Speaker 1>him God's wrath. There is one God, the Old Testament

535
00:31:04.440 --> 00:31:06.960
<v Speaker 1>God is the New Testament God. All that wrath, for

536
00:31:07.119 --> 00:31:09.160
<v Speaker 1>all the sin ever committed, or all the sin that

537
00:31:09.200 --> 00:31:12.400
<v Speaker 1>ever will be committed, poured out on to his son

538
00:31:12.920 --> 00:31:19.279
<v Speaker 1>in anguish. He didn't put his son through anything that

539
00:31:19.319 --> 00:31:23.359
<v Speaker 1>he's put us through. We can never match what Jesus did.

540
00:31:23.920 --> 00:31:28.160
<v Speaker 1>We could not survive a drop, one drop of God's

541
00:31:28.200 --> 00:31:33.160
<v Speaker 1>wrath from one cup. Jesus took them all. This isn't

542
00:31:33.400 --> 00:31:38.279
<v Speaker 1>two separate gods. It's God giving us the only way

543
00:31:38.599 --> 00:31:42.839
<v Speaker 1>to salvation, which is through the blood of Christ. Jesus.

544
00:31:43.240 --> 00:31:47.799
<v Speaker 1>And incidentally, those rules in the Old Testament, Jesus did

545
00:31:47.880 --> 00:31:52.200
<v Speaker 1>not cancel most of them. There were a few he modified.

546
00:31:52.200 --> 00:31:54.839
<v Speaker 1>He made clear to the Pharisees, you're not defiled by

547
00:31:54.839 --> 00:31:57.359
<v Speaker 1>what goes into the mouth, but what comes out. But

548
00:31:57.559 --> 00:32:03.559
<v Speaker 1>Jesus doubled down. You've heard it said that you should

549
00:32:03.599 --> 00:32:05.400
<v Speaker 1>not commit adultery. I tell you a man who looks

550
00:32:05.440 --> 00:32:07.480
<v Speaker 1>at a woman with loss in his eyes has committed adultery.

551
00:32:08.680 --> 00:32:11.000
<v Speaker 1>He reaffirmed marriage. It is for this reason that a

552
00:32:11.039 --> 00:32:14.319
<v Speaker 1>man leaves his family, mother and father, and clings to

553
00:32:14.359 --> 00:32:16.200
<v Speaker 1>his wife and they become one flush. He had all

554
00:32:16.240 --> 00:32:19.720
<v Speaker 1>sorts of time to say, yeah, that stuff about fornication

555
00:32:20.319 --> 00:32:23.279
<v Speaker 1>and adultery and same sex activity and old Testament, Yeah,

556
00:32:23.319 --> 00:32:25.920
<v Speaker 1>forget that stuff. I'm washing it out. Jesus did not

557
00:32:26.000 --> 00:32:28.480
<v Speaker 1>come to destroy the law, but to fulfill it. And

558
00:32:28.640 --> 00:32:32.519
<v Speaker 1>Jesus is part of the eternal Godhead. Always exists, it

559
00:32:32.599 --> 00:32:35.880
<v Speaker 1>always will exist, and there's only one of them or him.

560
00:32:37.359 --> 00:32:40.640
<v Speaker 1>This is the Todd Hermannshaw. Please go be well, be strong,

561
00:32:40.880 --> 00:32:43.480
<v Speaker 1>be kind, make a decision to walk in the light

562
00:32:43.559 --> 00:32:45.599
<v Speaker 1>of Christ, and celebrate with me as I get to

563
00:32:45.599 --> 00:32:49.359
<v Speaker 1>go spend some time hanging out doing some stuff. My

564
00:32:49.440 --> 00:33:00.160
<v Speaker 1>beloved wife
