WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.480 --> 00:00:04.440 I think there's scripture that should worry anybody who loves 2 00:00:04.440 --> 00:00:08.240 God and doesn't want to disappoint God. And I think 3 00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:10.720 if from time to time we're not worried by scripture, 4 00:00:10.919 --> 00:00:14.000 or it doesn't cause conflict in us, it doesn't cause 5 00:00:14.839 --> 00:00:19.280 restling match between flesh and spirit, then perhaps we're not 6 00:00:19.320 --> 00:00:22.079 really in the word. I want to talk about that, 7 00:00:22.120 --> 00:00:27.800 but I also want to honor Donald John Trump for 8 00:00:28.280 --> 00:00:34.759 treating black journalists as he does every other adversarial journalist. 9 00:00:36.200 --> 00:00:38.640 And I want to do this by way of comparison 10 00:00:39.719 --> 00:00:43.200 with some friends of mine here In fact, I should 11 00:00:43.240 --> 00:00:46.799 have them on to talk about this. But every black 12 00:00:47.719 --> 00:00:53.200 professional man I got to know personal training, to black 13 00:00:53.280 --> 00:00:58.840 personal trainers, to friends in media black people, and a 14 00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:05.519 black friend tech told me what their favored form of 15 00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:09.120 racism is and it relates to how President Trunk treated 16 00:01:09.120 --> 00:01:13.079 this journalist. We'll talk about that with the help of 17 00:01:13.480 --> 00:01:16.959 Bonefrogcoffee dot Com, says Todd and God Almighty, who, by 18 00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:20.359 the way, made and loves all people. 19 00:01:22.959 --> 00:01:26.480 The Todd Herman Show is one hundred percent disapproved by 20 00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:34.159 big pharma, technocrats and tyrants everywhere from the high mountains 21 00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:40.519 of Free America. Here's the Emerald City exile, Todd Herman. 22 00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:51.000 Today is a day the Lord has made in These 23 00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:53.239 are the times which God is. The Saturay shall live. 24 00:01:54.719 --> 00:01:57.719 Next week we starts a new format for one of 25 00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:00.719 the shows. The show you're listening to and or watching 26 00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:03.599 now will remain the same. It's effectively the radio show 27 00:02:03.719 --> 00:02:07.079 done on podcast. In order for me to be able 28 00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:11.199 to be absolutely as timely as possible and to dig 29 00:02:11.240 --> 00:02:15.879 into cultural things, faith things, political things, one at a time, 30 00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:19.319 we're going to be doing shorter casts. You don't have 31 00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:21.479 to change anything. If you have the RSS feed, if 32 00:02:21.520 --> 00:02:23.199 you subscribe to the show, you don't have to change 33 00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:27.479 a thing. Those shows will continue to download, and we 34 00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:31.199 may we're trying this, so it's subject to change. It 35 00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:33.000 might be that we edit that all up into one 36 00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:35.639 big show, but it's going to really be dependent upon 37 00:02:35.719 --> 00:02:38.479 how you feel about it. You, guys, matter more than 38 00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:41.840 anyone else in this equilibrium. Without you, there's no me 39 00:02:41.919 --> 00:02:43.680 in this position. As I used to say in radio, 40 00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:46.199 and I haven't said that enough to you lately. Without you, 41 00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:48.599 there's no me in this position. So thank you for that. 42 00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:53.879 I've always loved radio and now casts, and I don't 43 00:02:53.879 --> 00:02:56.360 always love coming in to talk about what's going on 44 00:02:56.439 --> 00:02:58.719 in the world. Because of what's going on in the world. 45 00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:04.759 Really excited to honor what President Trump did at the 46 00:03:04.800 --> 00:03:08.800 National Association of Black Journalists. And I'll tell you this 47 00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:13.879 favored form of racism that my friends in Seattle told 48 00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:17.000 me about, one by one, all separately, never in the 49 00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:21.560 same room. Several different instances of how this came about. 50 00:03:21.919 --> 00:03:24.759 One was in tech. Gentlemen I got to know in 51 00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:26.560 tech and black guy got to know him. I was 52 00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:29.560 working at Microsoft. He worked in Los Angeles and had 53 00:03:29.599 --> 00:03:32.560 been in the entertainment world and had made his way 54 00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:35.319 over to tech. Had a very good tech mind. And 55 00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:38.520 we were in New York City and we were at 56 00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:41.719 this event that Microsoft had put on and had There 57 00:03:41.800 --> 00:03:44.439 was this painter. It's one of those guys who he 58 00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:48.840 speed paints, and the trick is you don't know what 59 00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:51.199 he's painted until he turns it right side up and 60 00:03:51.240 --> 00:03:54.360 finishes it. And he was doing this to a Rolling 61 00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:57.039 Stone song. We had a concert there and I don't remember, 62 00:03:57.080 --> 00:04:00.599 it's some big bands there and we'd gone out to 63 00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:03.639 dinner with a bunch of advertisers. And remember this is 64 00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:07.360 New York City and this is liberal you know, no racism. 65 00:04:08.120 --> 00:04:12.879 And these are all liberals, doctrinaire democrat liberals. And we 66 00:04:12.919 --> 00:04:16.240 went out to dinner. Guy was the senior executive there, 67 00:04:16.439 --> 00:04:19.920 not me guy, and the rule of Microsoft is the 68 00:04:19.959 --> 00:04:26.800 senior executive pays. And he got out his card and 69 00:04:26.879 --> 00:04:32.680 a white woman turned to him and said, are you 70 00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:34.160 going to be okay with that in your card? It's 71 00:04:34.199 --> 00:04:42.480 a lot of money. First of all, it's a Microsoft 72 00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:47.480 corporate card. Secondly, it happens that guy didn't need a 73 00:04:47.600 --> 00:04:51.839 dime from anybody he worked because he loved it. He'd 74 00:04:51.879 --> 00:04:56.920 made a ton of money producing films and music and 75 00:04:57.040 --> 00:05:02.079 videos and owned a ton of intellectual p And he 76 00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:05.279 looked at her and said, I'm pretty sure if the 77 00:05:05.319 --> 00:05:10.160 Microsoft card doesn't handle it, my optimum will. He told 78 00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:12.279 me later, that's the sort of racism I can't stand. 79 00:05:12.759 --> 00:05:14.240 So do you think that was racism? He goes, Did 80 00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:18.879 she turn to you and say it okay? In Seattle, 81 00:05:18.879 --> 00:05:21.160 I've told the story before about my friend Terry coming 82 00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:25.000 into the radio station and everyone would stand up, Oh, Terry, Terry, 83 00:05:25.240 --> 00:05:27.319 It's always a wonderful day when you're here at him 84 00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:29.199 sitting across from me, going and I looked at him, 85 00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:30.680 I go does that ever bother you? He goes, dude, 86 00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:33.959 do they think I don't know they'll do that to you? 87 00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:35.480 Do you get that tripot when you walk in here? 88 00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:39.680 No one does. Only only black people. I know. Last 89 00:05:39.720 --> 00:05:42.879 one is probably the most pandering and cringey, as my 90 00:05:42.959 --> 00:05:47.439 daughter would say. Had a personal trainer named Steve, huge, 91 00:05:47.800 --> 00:05:50.240 unbelievably strong man. I've told you the stories about how 92 00:05:50.279 --> 00:05:54.680 strong this guy was. And nicest dude, but big, strong, 93 00:05:54.800 --> 00:05:57.720 athletic looking, sixty four year old black man. He was 94 00:05:57.759 --> 00:06:02.279 in a store in Liberal, the most liberal part of Seattle. 95 00:06:02.279 --> 00:06:04.560 He and his wife are down, they're shopping. She happens 96 00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:06.040 to be white. See if what happens to be black. 97 00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:12.160 He is a nutrition nut. So he had two separate 98 00:06:12.199 --> 00:06:14.439 products he was looking at and he was comparing the 99 00:06:14.480 --> 00:06:18.519 macros and the ingredients, and a liberal white woman and 100 00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:20.800 I kid you not his story, not mine, in a 101 00:06:20.839 --> 00:06:24.360 Hilary Clinton shirt, came up to him. She said, they 102 00:06:24.360 --> 00:06:26.879 can make those products really confusing. I'm a nurse. Let 103 00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:35.120 me know if I can help a nurse. They each 104 00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:40.040 said they prefer all of them, all of my black friends. 105 00:06:40.040 --> 00:06:43.480 And Settle said, we prefer the old fashioned KKK style racism. 106 00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:48.199 We would rather see a Dixie flag and a kick 107 00:06:48.240 --> 00:06:52.040 the Blacks Out T shirt than that form of racism. 108 00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:54.680 So I'll tell you why I'm talking about this in 109 00:06:54.720 --> 00:06:56.680 a second. I'll just show you what President Trump did, 110 00:06:56.720 --> 00:07:01.279 and I truly I can tell you with I'm proud 111 00:07:01.879 --> 00:07:04.560 of Donald John Trump and how he treated this. He 112 00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:08.000 confronted this, and he showed absolute respect for the black 113 00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:10.879 community by not lying to them. Right, we don't lie 114 00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:13.399 to each other when we respect each other. I won't 115 00:07:13.439 --> 00:07:15.879 lie to you when we come on this program. And 116 00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:19.040 there are products that I ingest. I check these companies out, 117 00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:22.839 and I've fallen in love with the Native Path company. 118 00:07:22.959 --> 00:07:25.360 This is again this morning. I'm drinking Native Path hydrate 119 00:07:26.160 --> 00:07:29.839 and Native Path of course, the Native Path krill. This 120 00:07:30.000 --> 00:07:31.560 is in fact of the night I ran out of 121 00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:33.360 my own and my wife was kind of to give 122 00:07:33.360 --> 00:07:35.199 me some of hers. I can't operate it without it. 123 00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:38.800 That's the stuff that's removed iberprofile from my life. Native 124 00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:42.519 Path Collagen is very similar and it is their sort 125 00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:45.279 of doing business. Of course, they turned to a third 126 00:07:45.279 --> 00:07:47.920 party to make sure that this doesn't contain any heavy 127 00:07:47.920 --> 00:07:51.079 metals or toxins. They outsourced that it's not their lab, 128 00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:54.560 it's another lab saying it's safe. They concentrate on the 129 00:07:54.600 --> 00:07:57.439 two most important forms of collagen fibers that's one in 130 00:07:57.560 --> 00:08:00.839 three is found in your cartilage, your muscles, et cetera. 131 00:08:01.480 --> 00:08:04.920 And their Native Path collision and formula is scientifically back 132 00:08:04.959 --> 00:08:09.000 to increase bone mineral density and accelerate tissue recovery. And 133 00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:12.360 then the esthetic things reducing wrinkles, enhancing hair thickness, strengthen 134 00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:15.800 and weaker damage nails. That's all in the formula. It's 135 00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:18.079 easy to mix and as someone who takes a lot 136 00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:21.040 of supplements, I love the fact that this is flavorless, 137 00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:24.720 easy to mix into anything, and for me my purposes 138 00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:28.480 maybe yours. It preserves joint health. I had a phone 139 00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:32.679 call last night with my seal Fit ambassador and she 140 00:08:32.720 --> 00:08:35.000 and I were talking about she's my age, she's been 141 00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:38.000 through seal Fit twice and she said, your joints are 142 00:08:38.000 --> 00:08:39.279 going to bark at you. And I said, I'm doing 143 00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:40.799 this to the collision and she goes, same thing is 144 00:08:40.840 --> 00:08:43.759 going to recommend.

President Trump being President Trump in the 155 00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:18.360 face of aggressive questioning, and President Trump acting with complete, utter, 156 00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:22.720 unmitigated respect for black people by not pandering. 157 00:09:22.799 --> 00:09:25.679 It's not true. You have told four congressmen women of 158 00:09:25.720 --> 00:09:28.360 color who are American citizens, to go back to where 159 00:09:28.360 --> 00:09:31.720 they came from. You have used words like animal and 160 00:09:31.879 --> 00:09:36.120 rabbit to describe black district attorneys. You've attacked black journalists, 161 00:09:36.200 --> 00:09:38.960 calling them a loser, saying the questions that they ask 162 00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:42.159 are quote stupid and racist. You've had dinner with the 163 00:09:42.200 --> 00:09:46.159 white supremacists at your marologue resort. So my question, sir, 164 00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:49.759 now that you are asking black supporters to vote for you, 165 00:09:50.519 --> 00:09:53.679 why should black voters trust you after you have used 166 00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:54.720 language like that. 167 00:09:56.000 --> 00:09:57.919 Well, first of all, I don't think i've ever been 168 00:09:58.159 --> 00:10:03.360 asked a question, so in such a horrible manner. First question, 169 00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:07.600 you don't even say, hello, how are you? Are you 170 00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:10.679 with ABC? Because I think they're a fake news network, 171 00:10:10.720 --> 00:10:16.120 a terrible net work, And I think it's disgraceful that 172 00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:20.799 I came here in good spirit. I love the black 173 00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:23.720 population of this country. I've done so much for the 174 00:10:23.720 --> 00:10:31.679 black population of this country, including employment, including Opportunity Zones 175 00:10:31.720 --> 00:10:34.879 with Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina, which is one 176 00:10:34.919 --> 00:10:40.000 of the greatest programs ever for black workers and black entrepreneurs. 177 00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:44.840 I've done so much. And you know, and I say this, Historically, 178 00:10:44.879 --> 00:10:48.360 black colleges and universities were out of money. They were 179 00:10:48.399 --> 00:10:51.679 stone call broke, and I saved them and I gave 180 00:10:51.759 --> 00:10:55.039 them long term financing and nobody else was doing it. 181 00:10:55.320 --> 00:10:58.360 I think it's a very rude introduction. I don't know 182 00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:01.840 exactly why you would do something like that. And let 183 00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:04.679 me go a step further. I was invited here, and 184 00:11:04.759 --> 00:11:08.320 I was told my opponent, whether it was Biden or Kamala, 185 00:11:09.080 --> 00:11:11.320 I was told my opponent was going to be here. 186 00:11:11.759 --> 00:11:14.639 It turned out my opponent isn't here. You invited me 187 00:11:14.720 --> 00:11:17.799 under false pretense, and then you said you can't do 188 00:11:17.919 --> 00:11:21.519 it with zoom, Well you know where's zoom. She's going 189 00:11:21.600 --> 00:11:23.759 to do it with zoom, and she's not coming, And 190 00:11:23.799 --> 00:11:26.039 then you were half an hourl A. Just so we understand, 191 00:11:26.200 --> 00:11:27.960 I have too much respect for you to be late. 192 00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:29.080 They couldn't get their. 193 00:11:28.960 --> 00:11:30.320 Equipment working or something. 194 00:11:31.039 --> 00:11:34.399 I would think it's a very nasty question. I have 195 00:11:34.519 --> 00:11:36.080 answered the question. 196 00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:40.240 I have been the best president for the black population 197 00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:43.440 since Abraham Lincoln. 198 00:11:44.080 --> 00:11:45.960 President Johnson, I'm the building right back. 199 00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:49.240 You to start off a question and answer period, especially 200 00:11:49.240 --> 00:11:51.799 when you're thirty five minutes late because you couldn't get 201 00:11:51.799 --> 00:11:54.559 your equipment to work. In such a hostile manner, I 202 00:11:54.639 --> 00:11:55.919 think it's a disgrace. 203 00:11:56.039 --> 00:11:59.720 I really it's not that he was polite, it's that 204 00:11:59.799 --> 00:12:02.840 she wasn't he matched her tone. He would do this 205 00:12:02.919 --> 00:12:06.720 to a white journalist. If that was Mitten's romney, he 206 00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:11.639 would have ducked and covered. If it was Hilary Clinton, 207 00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:14.759 she would have pulled out her hot sauce and put 208 00:12:14.799 --> 00:12:19.360 on some wop, stood up and danced for the people 209 00:12:19.799 --> 00:12:30.639 because she's down with the struggle. That's complete respect. I'm 210 00:12:30.639 --> 00:12:32.480 proud of the president for doing that. We'll spend more 211 00:12:32.519 --> 00:12:35.320 time on it tomorrow. On the other side of the 212 00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:40.039 spectrum is a guy named Ed Stetzer. I don't know Ed. 213 00:12:40.240 --> 00:12:44.360 I've never met Ed. I don't know Ed's heart. I 214 00:12:44.399 --> 00:12:46.480 know that Ed has some political views, and I know 215 00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:48.639 he's an evangelical Christian, and I know he's got a 216 00:12:48.840 --> 00:12:51.919 huge amount of respect. In fact, I have listened to 217 00:12:52.120 --> 00:12:55.480 and quite enjoyed his program very much. This would be 218 00:12:55.480 --> 00:12:58.639 an area on which he and I disagree. He was 219 00:12:58.679 --> 00:13:04.360 talking about how to deprogram the deplorables during a book launch. 220 00:13:04.639 --> 00:13:07.759 Next question from Paul Washa Kakar, who's at the United 221 00:13:07.759 --> 00:13:11.120 States Institute of Peace. I'm interested in hearing more about 222 00:13:11.159 --> 00:13:14.279 Pastor Ed's work with evangelical pastors. How do you help 223 00:13:14.360 --> 00:13:18.200 them identify and work on de radicalization. Do you build 224 00:13:18.200 --> 00:13:23.240 on the internationals cbe countering violent extremism work in this area, 225 00:13:23.320 --> 00:13:25.279 or how does it differ in your understanding? 226 00:13:26.200 --> 00:13:29.639 First, we don't call it de radicalization, That's the first thing, 227 00:13:29.679 --> 00:13:31.799 but because nobody sees themselves as that. But I get 228 00:13:31.840 --> 00:13:34.440 exactly what you're saying, and I appreciate the work of deradicalization, 229 00:13:35.399 --> 00:13:38.080 the language I use at the beginning and the way 230 00:13:38.120 --> 00:13:41.200 because I've written a lot to try to persuade evangelicals 231 00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:43.960 on some of these issues, and I actually have. It 232 00:13:44.080 --> 00:13:45.799 was very easy for us to sit back and say, oh, 233 00:13:45.879 --> 00:13:49.240 those Quan honors, well, I actually have friends in the 234 00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:54.720 who are self identified Qan honors in the evangelical community. 235 00:13:55.320 --> 00:13:59.080 I kind of just pause this, Sorry, Nana, with all 236 00:13:59.320 --> 00:14:03.759 due respect, and he's earned respect. At Stetzer, I am 237 00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:07.399 pretty thick into conservative politics. I live in a very 238 00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:14.200 conservative region. I have mostly conservative friends, and I am 239 00:14:14.240 --> 00:14:18.799 blessed to get hundreds of emails a day. I've met 240 00:14:18.840 --> 00:14:23.039 one person who asked me to look into q Andon period, 241 00:14:23.919 --> 00:14:27.600 so I would be fascinated to learn how you ended 242 00:14:27.639 --> 00:14:30.879 up with a lot of friends who identifies q Andon. 243 00:14:31.200 --> 00:14:34.519 When I've met one person who said, would you look 244 00:14:34.559 --> 00:14:37.279 into this? And my response was no, because it's nothing 245 00:14:37.279 --> 00:14:39.279 I can determine to be true or false. 246 00:14:39.639 --> 00:14:41.879 Who actually text me when I'm being discussed on q 247 00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:44.360 andon message boards and they say they defend me on 248 00:14:44.360 --> 00:14:46.720 those message boards. But that's another story for another day. 249 00:14:47.759 --> 00:14:49.759 So for me, I try to frame in such a 250 00:14:49.759 --> 00:14:52.960 way that people can receive the message. And again, for us, 251 00:14:52.960 --> 00:14:55.919 that often comes around in terms of discipleship. I talked 252 00:14:55.919 --> 00:14:59.600 about this on NPR's morning edition, and the host asked me, 253 00:14:59.639 --> 00:15:02.399 and kind of I struggle because it's like it's insider 254 00:15:02.399 --> 00:15:05.000 baseball language. I said, So there are things I explained 255 00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:08.759 that as Christians we want to disciple in and things 256 00:15:08.759 --> 00:15:11.320 that as Christians we want to disciple out. So what 257 00:15:11.480 --> 00:15:14.120 needs to be discipled in in twenty twenty one, Well, 258 00:15:14.440 --> 00:15:16.799 it might be seeing yourself as a world Christian, seeing 259 00:15:17.240 --> 00:15:19.320 that men and women from every tongue tribe of nation 260 00:15:19.600 --> 00:15:24.279 are that's frequent language in the pages of the scriptures. 261 00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:26.679 It might be helping people to see that. And the 262 00:15:26.759 --> 00:15:29.000 language I often use is that we should not be 263 00:15:29.080 --> 00:15:30.399 among the gullible. 264 00:15:32.159 --> 00:15:36.200 Pause. Nothing wrong with what ed sets is saying. The 265 00:15:36.279 --> 00:15:38.399 Lord of the universe is the Lord of the universe. 266 00:15:38.519 --> 00:15:41.919 Jesus is not the Jesus of the United States. And 267 00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:48.320 the question was about deprogramming deplorables. I just showed Donald 268 00:15:48.399 --> 00:15:56.360 John Trump sit on stage and act with absolute consistency 269 00:15:56.399 --> 00:16:00.519 with a black journalist calling him a racist, without saying 270 00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:06.480 it and without pandering. I can show you Cammie Harris, 271 00:16:06.879 --> 00:16:10.120 who has identified as Indian her most of her life. 272 00:16:10.879 --> 00:16:14.639 I can show you her concept of black people as 273 00:16:14.679 --> 00:16:18.080 to get on stage after megan the Stallion with one 274 00:16:18.120 --> 00:16:23.360 of the most perverse and dishonoring of women quote songs 275 00:16:23.399 --> 00:16:30.399 in history. That that's blackness. Bailing out criminals who destroyed 276 00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:36.399 often black neighborhoods, that's blackness. So to Ed Stetzer, I 277 00:16:36.480 --> 00:16:42.159 would say, again, with all respect ed, there's many forms 278 00:16:42.159 --> 00:16:45.720 of racism, and I regard what's being inserted into the 279 00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:50.279 minds of leftists as a very, very poisonous form of racism, 280 00:16:50.440 --> 00:16:55.799 far more radical than whatever you've invented as racism from 281 00:16:55.840 --> 00:16:59.320 President Trump or the deplorables, which seems to me to 282 00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:02.960 be Paulss based. It is not racist to say we 283 00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:05.319 have to be able to have some control of our borders, 284 00:17:05.640 --> 00:17:11.039 goes to Romans thirteen. We have border laws or we don't, 285 00:17:12.039 --> 00:17:14.759 sojourners have to follow our laws or they don't. What 286 00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:16.039 does Roman thirteen say? 287 00:17:16.240 --> 00:17:18.079 And I actually would point out, you know, I mean, 288 00:17:18.480 --> 00:17:19.359 I do, just so we're clear. 289 00:17:19.400 --> 00:17:19.960 I do believe. 290 00:17:20.480 --> 00:17:22.279 I've bet my whole life on the fact that there 291 00:17:22.319 --> 00:17:24.160 was a person who was dead on Friday and on 292 00:17:24.200 --> 00:17:27.119 Sunday was back from the dead, and everything I believe 293 00:17:27.279 --> 00:17:30.200 and is framed and shaped around that reality. But I 294 00:17:30.240 --> 00:17:33.960 do point out how as our Christian witness is impacted. 295 00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:35.599 The last slide that I didn't get to because I 296 00:17:35.599 --> 00:17:37.599 went too long in the first session actually talks about 297 00:17:37.599 --> 00:17:40.160 the danger to our Christian witness. I lead the Wheaton 298 00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:42.920 College Billy Graham Center, so I care deeply about our 299 00:17:43.000 --> 00:17:46.119 Christian witness. And I pointed out somebody who kept posting 300 00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:48.680 about this q Andon conspiracy and this QAnon conspiracy in 301 00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:50.759 this one and then it came to Easter and they said, oh, 302 00:17:50.759 --> 00:17:51.960 and Jesus rose from the dead. 303 00:17:53.160 --> 00:17:56.799 Nothing wrong, nothing wrong with saying don't make the idle 304 00:17:56.839 --> 00:17:59.720 of politics, nothing wrong with that, But to even you 305 00:18:00.200 --> 00:18:03.839 phrases like deplorables, to even take a question like that 306 00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:08.759 and say, can I reframe that. Jesus tells us not 307 00:18:09.039 --> 00:18:12.920 to call people fools. We're not to make that judgment. 308 00:18:13.039 --> 00:18:16.799 That's God's judgment to make. And the phrase deplorables in 309 00:18:16.839 --> 00:18:21.200 of itself devalues some of God's beings. I think there's 310 00:18:21.240 --> 00:18:25.400 this temptation, and particularly it's an emotional temptation to look 311 00:18:25.400 --> 00:18:29.759 at President Trump and a direct way of speaking and 312 00:18:29.799 --> 00:18:33.519 point to that as as aggressive or racist. That black 313 00:18:33.559 --> 00:18:35.319 journalist who was interviewing him and forgive me for not 314 00:18:35.319 --> 00:18:39.440 knowing her name. She made these accusations of racism, saying 315 00:18:39.720 --> 00:18:42.640 you told women of color who are United States citizens 316 00:18:42.640 --> 00:18:45.960 to go home. Yeah, some of who moved here, who 317 00:18:45.960 --> 00:18:49.480 were rescued and hate this country and are doing everything 318 00:18:49.680 --> 00:18:54.400 policy wise to destroy this country. Those aren't question marks. 319 00:18:54.440 --> 00:18:57.160 Those are facts. You destroy a country by setting up 320 00:18:57.200 --> 00:19:02.119 neighborhoods that are of one race. That's a division tactic, 321 00:19:02.119 --> 00:19:04.880 and everybody knows it, everyone who's willing to admit it. 322 00:19:06.799 --> 00:19:09.160 There's some scripture that I think, and maybe ed set 323 00:19:09.240 --> 00:19:11.720 you would agree with this, that I think every Christian 324 00:19:11.799 --> 00:19:14.000 should be concerned by. I'm going to start with some 325 00:19:14.079 --> 00:19:18.319 scripture that concerns me. And if you're involved in politics 326 00:19:18.440 --> 00:19:23.720 or posting online or arguing with people online, let's talk 327 00:19:23.759 --> 00:19:26.400 with someone the other night who made the point that 328 00:19:26.440 --> 00:19:31.039 she got into an argument online and ended poorly. She 329 00:19:31.160 --> 00:19:32.079 was repenting of it. 330 00:19:33.039 --> 00:19:33.160 There. 331 00:19:33.160 --> 00:19:35.440 It's happened to all of us. I think some of 332 00:19:35.440 --> 00:19:38.240 the scripture should concern us. I'm going to work into 333 00:19:38.319 --> 00:19:40.920 this something from the chosen because I think it can 334 00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:45.440 give us some relief. I really do relief from what well, 335 00:19:45.519 --> 00:19:48.240 relief from judging ourselves harshly because we don't get certain 336 00:19:48.279 --> 00:19:51.359 things in scripture. There's things that are challenging. It's the 337 00:19:51.400 --> 00:19:54.799 word of God. It's going to be challenging. There's also though, 338 00:19:54.839 --> 00:19:57.319 sometimes you need relief for your body, particularly if you've 339 00:19:57.319 --> 00:19:59.599 been through a hard period of time. I know people 340 00:19:59.599 --> 00:20:07.920 who've been and through trauma, real profound, frightening, potentially life ending 341 00:20:08.079 --> 00:20:13.359 trauma of family members, and they've found themselves feeling like, man, 342 00:20:13.960 --> 00:20:17.039 this has changed me. And you might be in that position. 343 00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:20.319 Or like a friend of mine who is now planning 344 00:20:20.319 --> 00:20:22.279 there having a baby, it's going to be as first 345 00:20:22.279 --> 00:20:24.880 time as a dad. He had to relocate his business 346 00:20:25.559 --> 00:20:27.279 and I saw him the other day and he was 347 00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:30.279 telling me, Dude, I am way backwards on my fitness. 348 00:20:30.319 --> 00:20:32.920 I'm starting to gain weight again. This could be happening 349 00:20:32.920 --> 00:20:35.480 to you for years. Another friend I'm thinking of, he's 350 00:20:35.519 --> 00:20:38.319 got horrible things going on with his back and he's 351 00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:40.119 looked into stem cells and it's going to have to 352 00:20:40.119 --> 00:20:42.119 be surgery for now. It's just going to have to be. 353 00:20:43.079 --> 00:20:46.359 And I look at his body and he bemoans a fact, Look, 354 00:20:46.440 --> 00:20:48.720 I can't go hunting. I can't do the things that 355 00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:52.799 will help me drop fat. If you're in that circumstance, 356 00:20:53.000 --> 00:20:55.960 you're probably like one hundred million other Americans and have 357 00:20:56.039 --> 00:20:59.200 fatty liver. This will lead to you being sluggish, so 358 00:20:59.279 --> 00:21:02.599 then less sectual size, feeling slow, so then less energy, 359 00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:05.720 and that can lead to a whole bunch of problems 360 00:21:05.759 --> 00:21:08.880 in your body because your liver cannot properly filter your blood. 361 00:21:09.519 --> 00:21:12.000 If that's the case, then it gets even worse, which 362 00:21:12.039 --> 00:21:14.400 can lead to a big tax on your liver and 363 00:21:14.519 --> 00:21:18.599 ultimately liver disease.
