<v Speaker 1>We should read our bibles as men dig for buried treasure.

<v Speaker 2>One of the most high game of the nations their inheritance.

00:00:16.640 --> 00:00:19.440
<v Speaker 2>When He divided mankind, he fixed the borders of people's

4
00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:21.399
<v Speaker 2>according to the number of the sons of God.

5
00:00:22.039 --> 00:00:25.280
<v Speaker 1>In those days and for some time after, giant Nephilites

6
00:00:25.320 --> 00:00:27.239
<v Speaker 1>lived down to the earth. For whenever the sons of

7
00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:30.199
<v Speaker 1>God had intercourse with women, they gave birth to children

8
00:00:30.199 --> 00:00:33.119
<v Speaker 1>who became the heroes and famous warriors.

9
00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:33.600
<v Speaker 3>Of ancient tides.

10
00:00:33.960 --> 00:00:36.840

<v Speaker 2>long distance pals.

<v Speaker 4>We're back. Did you guys miss me.

<v Speaker 1>So much, so so much?

26
00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:26.480
<v Speaker 2>You had a little bit of technical issues without me.

27
00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:28.120
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, but it wouldn't because of me.

28
00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:31.359
<v Speaker 5>But I tried to get Stephen to say your intro,

29
00:01:31.480 --> 00:01:32.079
<v Speaker 5>but he wouldn't it.

30
00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:36.000
<v Speaker 4>Oh, you didn't want to steal my line. I appreciate that.

31
00:01:36.000 --> 00:01:38.959
<v Speaker 1>That's yours, buddy, that's pat that's you all.

00:01:39.040 --> 00:01:39.799
<v Speaker 4>That's patented.

33
00:01:41.799 --> 00:01:44.879
<v Speaker 2>Well, man, I'm telling you what it's like in Tennessee.

34
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:48.120
<v Speaker 2>You know, be on the shadow of a doubt that

35
00:01:48.519 --> 00:01:51.400
<v Speaker 2>mother nature is a woman and cannot make its mind up.

36
00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:52.920
<v Speaker 4>Last week it.

37
00:01:52.879 --> 00:01:56.359
<v Speaker 2>Was like seventy five eighty degrees and then out of

38
00:01:56.480 --> 00:02:01.239
<v Speaker 2>nowhere it plumpts to like twenty and we got Steven

39
00:02:01.319 --> 00:02:05.280
<v Speaker 2>over here. The guy from Michigan bundled up, like what's

40
00:02:05.319 --> 00:02:06.159
<v Speaker 2>that guy's name again?

41
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:07.799
<v Speaker 4>Uncle un Uncle.

42
00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:11.479
<v Speaker 5>Eddie, sitting next to a kerosene heater.

43
00:02:11.719 --> 00:02:13.479
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and it's still enough.

44
00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:19.159
<v Speaker 2>Got his leather weld and gloves on and everything. Well,

45
00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:23.599
<v Speaker 2>you guys have fun with Vicky Joy despite the technical

46
00:02:23.879 --> 00:02:25.159
<v Speaker 2>issues worked out.

47
00:02:25.319 --> 00:02:28.319
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I'm glad that all the audio and everything worked out.

48
00:02:28.479 --> 00:02:34.520
<v Speaker 4>That's good. Well, I guess the open up in prayer.

49
00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:37.759
<v Speaker 2>Uh, Father, thank you for today, Thank you for the

50
00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:41.000
<v Speaker 2>mean blessings that you've given us. We just thank you

51
00:02:41.039 --> 00:02:43.719
<v Speaker 2>for the opportunity to sit down and dig to your

52
00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:47.840
<v Speaker 2>word and conversate with all these great guests that you've

53
00:02:47.840 --> 00:02:50.240
<v Speaker 2>allowed us to speak with. And we just pray that

54
00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:54.319
<v Speaker 2>the show goes good today and that this is something new,

55
00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:57.639
<v Speaker 2>a little bit more lighthearted, and hopefully everybody enjoys it.

56
00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:00.800
<v Speaker 2>And uh, it's in your name, we pray, amen.

57
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:01.879
<v Speaker 3>Amen.

58
00:03:03.000 --> 00:03:05.560
<v Speaker 2>Well, one thing I just wanted to like kind of

59
00:03:05.639 --> 00:03:09.639
<v Speaker 2>add to the show and make Steven kind of cringe.

60
00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:14.000
<v Speaker 2>I texted him the other day. I found a like

61
00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:16.800
<v Speaker 2>a box of dad jokes.

62
00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:19.360
<v Speaker 5>Dad jokes and are the best jokes?

63
00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:21.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm like, I'm gonna tell some corny dad jokes

64
00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:24.280
<v Speaker 2>or something throughout the show that I found this one,

65
00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:27.639
<v Speaker 2>and I put a picture on Facebook of all these

66
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:29.800
<v Speaker 2>books I just ordered. It was like ten books I got,

67
00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:32.120
<v Speaker 2>and so this one was pretty good. This I'm reading

68
00:03:32.120 --> 00:03:36.159
<v Speaker 2>a book about anti gravity. It's impossible to put it down.

69
00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:37.919
<v Speaker 3>Jez.

70
00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:43.039
<v Speaker 5>Well, the thing about dad jokes is you don't have

71
00:03:43.080 --> 00:03:46.759
<v Speaker 5>to enjoy them because the person telling them it's all

72
00:03:46.800 --> 00:03:49.159
<v Speaker 5>about their own enjoyment of their own jokes.

73
00:03:49.280 --> 00:03:49.800
<v Speaker 4>Pretty much.

74
00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:53.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, make yourself laugh, yep, But don't worry.

75
00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:55.199
<v Speaker 4>I won't give up my day job.

76
00:03:55.599 --> 00:03:59.280
<v Speaker 2>But hopefully we got a guest here today that we'll

77
00:03:59.319 --> 00:04:01.520
<v Speaker 2>be able to succeed in making you laugh and put

78
00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:04.400
<v Speaker 2>a smile on your face. Today we got with us

79
00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:09.360
<v Speaker 2>Bradstein from Bradstein has issues and the way he how

80
00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:11.520
<v Speaker 2>you say that phrase again, Brad when you open up

81
00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:13.159
<v Speaker 2>your show, I love it. The concofphony.

82
00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:17.519
<v Speaker 3>Oh well, I mean, if you really would like me

83
00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:23.879
<v Speaker 3>to give you my famous intro, It's God's coming brad

84
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:28.600
<v Speaker 3>Stein on brad Stein has issues where comedy conservatism in

85
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:34.439
<v Speaker 3>Christianita colliite a cacophony of clarity, and I don't really

86
00:04:34.480 --> 00:04:36.439
<v Speaker 3>know if there's any way to beat that. I think

87
00:04:36.519 --> 00:04:40.160
<v Speaker 3>I have reached the pinnacle of intros and used as

88
00:04:40.199 --> 00:04:42.480
<v Speaker 3>many cocky words as I could find.

89
00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:46.079
<v Speaker 2>Yes, that is amazing, and I would butcher. That's why

90
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:48.399
<v Speaker 2>I wanted you to do it. That's a that's a

91
00:04:48.399 --> 00:04:49.000
<v Speaker 2>tongue twister.

92
00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:52.839
<v Speaker 3>Well, nobody can butcher things like Southerners. I'll tell you

93
00:04:52.879 --> 00:04:57.120
<v Speaker 3>that I'm in good hands. I'm in good hands. You

94
00:04:57.160 --> 00:05:02.319
<v Speaker 3>can butcher it, jerk it, dry it, lay it out,

95
00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:05.560
<v Speaker 3>barbecue it. Hey man, that's why I move down south.

96
00:05:05.600 --> 00:05:07.519
<v Speaker 3>I need to be with my people, even though I

97
00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:08.879
<v Speaker 3>don't have your dialect.

98
00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:13.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, videos on YouTube you're talking about And it was

99
00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:16.720
<v Speaker 2>a few years ago and it said, you know, Southern

100
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:17.839
<v Speaker 2>people get a bad rap.

101
00:05:17.879 --> 00:05:18.800
<v Speaker 4>He said that accent.

102
00:05:19.399 --> 00:05:20.920
<v Speaker 2>He said they could be the smartest guy in the

103
00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:22.839
<v Speaker 2>room working at NASA, and he came up with an

104
00:05:22.879 --> 00:05:24.800
<v Speaker 2>idea and it could be the best idea in the room, but.

105
00:05:24.759 --> 00:05:25.680
<v Speaker 4>The dialect kills it.

106
00:05:25.720 --> 00:05:29.279
<v Speaker 2>And they're like, no, Jethro, We're gonna pass on that.

107
00:05:31.720 --> 00:05:34.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. I mean that's the beauty of comedy, you know.

108
00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:41.279
<v Speaker 3>Is its purpose is to speak truth in a way

109
00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:45.519
<v Speaker 3>that's humorous and and and of course it can. It's

110
00:05:45.560 --> 00:05:50.519
<v Speaker 3>gonna use satire and stereotypes and caricatures, and obviously it's

111
00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:54.279
<v Speaker 3>not always dead on it. It's maybe making fun of

112
00:05:54.319 --> 00:05:56.160
<v Speaker 3>the way people are made fun of. But it's an

113
00:05:56.199 --> 00:06:03.240
<v Speaker 3>important and crucial element of culture and humanity, is the

114
00:06:03.240 --> 00:06:06.800
<v Speaker 3>comedian because we're supposedly, historically the ones that make fun

115
00:06:06.839 --> 00:06:08.720
<v Speaker 3>of the king and they get our heads cut off.

116
00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:10.879
<v Speaker 3>We're the ones that tell the monarch, you know better

117
00:06:10.920 --> 00:06:14.079
<v Speaker 3>than us, and let the peasants have some kind of power.

118
00:06:14.519 --> 00:06:16.839
<v Speaker 3>And so that's what comedy was for, and it's why

119
00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:22.399
<v Speaker 3>the left is so destructive, right, now in not only

120
00:06:22.439 --> 00:06:24.879
<v Speaker 3>destroying free speech in America and around the world, but

121
00:06:25.560 --> 00:06:28.480
<v Speaker 3>comedy as well, because we're the last ones that kind

122
00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:32.920
<v Speaker 3>of could get away with murder. So it's important that

123
00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:36.399
<v Speaker 3>you fight for comics to be able to speak about anything,

124
00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:41.040
<v Speaker 3>any topic, anytime, anywhere, any place, because if they can't speak,

125
00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:42.160
<v Speaker 3>there's nobody left.

126
00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:43.759
<v Speaker 4>Right, that's true.

127
00:06:44.120 --> 00:06:46.399
<v Speaker 1>That's the end of free speech right there. Yeah, if

128
00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:48.600
<v Speaker 1>it keeps going, the direction is going, you're not gonna

129
00:06:48.600 --> 00:06:51.639
<v Speaker 1>have a job here pretty soon. It's just it's so sad.

130
00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:53.360
<v Speaker 5>We'll have to teach them how to barbecue.

131
00:06:55.240 --> 00:06:57.399
<v Speaker 1>I think we could do that. But in all seriousness,

132
00:06:57.480 --> 00:07:01.040
<v Speaker 1>so that all that stuff that we've seen in the

133
00:07:01.040 --> 00:07:04.240
<v Speaker 1>news recently with you know this comedian, you know, the

134
00:07:04.240 --> 00:07:08.040
<v Speaker 1>whole Chris Rock thing that we saw was just it's

135
00:07:08.040 --> 00:07:11.920
<v Speaker 1>a travesty. It's just a jab at comedians in general.

136
00:07:12.000 --> 00:07:15.319
<v Speaker 1>And that it's just sad it.

137
00:07:15.480 --> 00:07:17.600
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, said that they can't even say what they want

138
00:07:17.639 --> 00:07:19.920
<v Speaker 5>to say. Then they if they say it, they got.

139
00:07:19.959 --> 00:07:23.480
<v Speaker 4>To apologize, which is ridiculous.

140
00:07:23.560 --> 00:07:25.639
<v Speaker 2>And that's the thing I love about his show. It

141
00:07:25.759 --> 00:07:30.920
<v Speaker 2>is so unapologetic. And the thing is that I really

142
00:07:30.959 --> 00:07:35.079
<v Speaker 2>admire you for, Brad, is that the Christian you know

143
00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:40.800
<v Speaker 2>group as a whole, they stay away from politics. You know,

144
00:07:40.920 --> 00:07:43.120
<v Speaker 2>it's like, you know, that's a realm they're not allowed

145
00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:46.439
<v Speaker 2>to dive into. It's a taboo. And we're just supposed

146
00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:49.839
<v Speaker 2>to respect the rulers that God put in place and

147
00:07:49.879 --> 00:07:53.920
<v Speaker 2>not speak out. And I've always been really involved in

148
00:07:54.000 --> 00:07:57.199
<v Speaker 2>politics and stuff like that. So, uh, I guess if

149
00:07:57.240 --> 00:08:00.600
<v Speaker 2>you could just kind of walk us through how you

150
00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:03.160
<v Speaker 2>come up with this show, what inspired you to do

151
00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:10.199
<v Speaker 2>it and to feel that need and actually make it entertainable.

152
00:08:10.800 --> 00:08:17.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Well, what happened was I found myself one day

153
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:24.439
<v Speaker 3>surrounded by a cult that had taken over my country.

154
00:08:25.639 --> 00:08:31.439
<v Speaker 3>A cult, of course, is any ideology, philosophy, or construct

155
00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:35.679
<v Speaker 3>that is outside of Judeo Christian worldview that created the

156
00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:38.919
<v Speaker 3>West and gave us our freedom. The intrinsic dignity of

157
00:08:38.960 --> 00:08:41.679
<v Speaker 3>the human being comes from the Judeo Christian ethic. It

158
00:08:41.720 --> 00:08:44.759
<v Speaker 3>comes from no other place on Earth in history, and

159
00:08:44.799 --> 00:08:48.080
<v Speaker 3>it gives us something that is more important than anything

160
00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:51.360
<v Speaker 3>that could ever be uttered in humanity. And that is

161
00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:55.159
<v Speaker 3>what is the actual, immutable, transcendent truth by which all

162
00:08:55.240 --> 00:09:00.720
<v Speaker 3>truth derives. So one day, as a comic, I found

163
00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:09.279
<v Speaker 3>myself locked down and imprisoned in my own home because

164
00:09:09.279 --> 00:09:15.080
<v Speaker 3>a cult had taken over the DNA and the milieu

165
00:09:15.279 --> 00:09:19.879
<v Speaker 3>of my country. And that cult was called Corona, And

166
00:09:20.519 --> 00:09:24.240
<v Speaker 3>it was the use of a virus that was unleashed

167
00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:33.720
<v Speaker 3>on the world by China to basically create fear amongst

168
00:09:34.279 --> 00:09:39.000
<v Speaker 3>weak minded folks who don't think, don't care, don't study,

169
00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:43.879
<v Speaker 3>don't go deep, don't observe, aren't aware, aren't sensitive to

170
00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:48.120
<v Speaker 3>God in the Holy Spirit and truth and reality, and

171
00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:57.080
<v Speaker 3>allowed a bureaucratic, governmental ttalitarian vision of earth to control.

172
00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:01.159
<v Speaker 3>And I don't do that. I don't believe in that,

173
00:10:01.759 --> 00:10:05.960
<v Speaker 3>and so but I'm kind of stuck. I mean, you know,

174
00:10:06.159 --> 00:10:08.159
<v Speaker 3>I still went to the store, and yeah, I didn't

175
00:10:08.159 --> 00:10:11.519
<v Speaker 3>wear a mask from day one. In twenty twenty, when

176
00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:15.279
<v Speaker 3>the rest of the cowards in America buckled, I said,

177
00:10:15.320 --> 00:10:18.919
<v Speaker 3>I'm not doing this. This isn't constitutional, This certainly isn't

178
00:10:19.679 --> 00:10:23.440
<v Speaker 3>something's wrong here. And never in our history have we

179
00:10:23.519 --> 00:10:29.240
<v Speaker 3>punished the healthy. Never our history have we shut down

180
00:10:29.360 --> 00:10:31.679
<v Speaker 3>the free enterprise of those who choose to make their

181
00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:36.159
<v Speaker 3>own risks and create their own risks and take their

182
00:10:36.200 --> 00:10:40.639
<v Speaker 3>own risks. As an American not foolish, I didn't mean

183
00:10:40.679 --> 00:10:45.279
<v Speaker 3>being foolish. If this was the Black Plague and sixty

184
00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:48.360
<v Speaker 3>five percent of every human being from every age group

185
00:10:48.440 --> 00:10:52.399
<v Speaker 3>was getting it in, puking black blood and dyeing the streets,

186
00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:57.279
<v Speaker 3>yeah I'd probably join. But if you're going to tell

187
00:10:57.320 --> 00:11:00.399
<v Speaker 3>me that this ninety nine point eight percent survival, that's

188
00:11:00.519 --> 00:11:03.200
<v Speaker 3>essentially only going to harm people who are over seventy

189
00:11:03.279 --> 00:11:05.759
<v Speaker 3>years old, who are obese and have a precondition, And

190
00:11:05.799 --> 00:11:08.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to destroy my freedom for that. I'm not

191
00:11:08.320 --> 00:11:12.519
<v Speaker 3>doing it. I'm not playing. So I got on my

192
00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:21.240
<v Speaker 3>Facebook page out of boredom. I thought to myself, and

193
00:11:21.279 --> 00:11:24.159
<v Speaker 3>if you've been around long enough as a Christian and

194
00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:28.639
<v Speaker 3>as a performer, you don't take your press seriously. So

195
00:11:28.799 --> 00:11:31.480
<v Speaker 3>I'm literally thinking, I'm no buddy. I'm just some guy

196
00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:35.320
<v Speaker 3>that does comedy, have been doing comedy, but I'm nobody.

197
00:11:36.440 --> 00:11:40.759
<v Speaker 3>But I'm bored. What would happen if I got on

198
00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:44.519
<v Speaker 3>Facebook Live and just talk, just for something to do,

199
00:11:45.159 --> 00:11:49.919
<v Speaker 3>and I did grab my little laptop, set it all

200
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:53.799
<v Speaker 3>my lap, probably legitimately, if not just on a little

201
00:11:53.919 --> 00:11:58.759
<v Speaker 3>coffee table I remember, and just push Facebook Live and

202
00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:03.360
<v Speaker 3>just thought, well, maybe twenty people that want to I

203
00:12:03.399 --> 00:12:06.639
<v Speaker 3>don't know, just bored. Yeah, And I don't know, three

204
00:12:06.679 --> 00:12:10.440
<v Speaker 3>four or five hundred people suddenly were watching me, like instantaneously,

205
00:12:10.480 --> 00:12:13.480
<v Speaker 3>and I'm going, what is going? This is ridiculous. I

206
00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:15.679
<v Speaker 3>was just shocked buy that I just because I'd never

207
00:12:15.759 --> 00:12:18.080
<v Speaker 3>used Facebook, I didn't know how it worked. Frankly, I'm

208
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:22.360
<v Speaker 3>a techno idiot. So I did it. And I just

209
00:12:22.440 --> 00:12:27.759
<v Speaker 3>started extemporaneously talking, didn't have any notes, didn't have any agenda,

210
00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:30.399
<v Speaker 3>just started talking. I don't know, here's what I'm thinking

211
00:12:30.399 --> 00:12:34.320
<v Speaker 3>about right now, guys. And I said, well, listen, I'll

212
00:12:34.320 --> 00:12:35.960
<v Speaker 3>tell you what. How about I'll come back next Monday.

213
00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:41.360
<v Speaker 3>We'll do it again. And I did, and there was

214
00:12:41.399 --> 00:12:43.919
<v Speaker 3>all these folks paying attention, and finally I said, well, listen,

215
00:12:44.120 --> 00:12:45.759
<v Speaker 3>I guess we're going to need to set a time

216
00:12:45.960 --> 00:12:48.679
<v Speaker 3>frame so that we can be considered, you know, if

217
00:12:48.720 --> 00:12:53.879
<v Speaker 3>you guys. And from day one, I made it very

218
00:12:53.919 --> 00:12:58.240
<v Speaker 3>clear to the to the people that were watching, I said, listen,

219
00:12:58.440 --> 00:13:01.600
<v Speaker 3>if you're watching me in this intest, I'm humbled by

220
00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:03.080
<v Speaker 3>it and grateful for it. If I have something to

221
00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:06.320
<v Speaker 3>say you think matters. But may make this very clear,

222
00:13:07.559 --> 00:13:11.840
<v Speaker 3>I don't need this to feel good about myself. I've

223
00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:14.159
<v Speaker 3>been in front of stages, in front of thousands and

224
00:13:14.279 --> 00:13:19.360
<v Speaker 3>thousands and thousands of ten fifteen thousand men, in an arena,

225
00:13:19.559 --> 00:13:21.919
<v Speaker 3>in a basketball arena. When I was a promise keeper.

226
00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:25.879
<v Speaker 3>I've been in front of national television audiences. I've been

227
00:13:26.159 --> 00:13:28.559
<v Speaker 3>in front of sold out comedy club boobs. I've had

228
00:13:28.600 --> 00:13:33.399
<v Speaker 3>standing ovations. I don't need my ego stroked to say, Look,

229
00:13:34.120 --> 00:13:36.639
<v Speaker 3>I'm on YouTube, I'm on Facebook and everybody's watching me

230
00:13:36.679 --> 00:13:39.000
<v Speaker 3>on and I somebody. I don't need it. I have

231
00:13:39.240 --> 00:13:42.200
<v Speaker 3>my place, I have my stage to do the thing

232
00:13:42.240 --> 00:13:44.120
<v Speaker 3>that I enjoyed doing that God who's gifted me to

233
00:13:44.120 --> 00:13:46.080
<v Speaker 3>do and inspired me to do. So. I'm not here

234
00:13:46.559 --> 00:13:49.279
<v Speaker 3>to try to feel good about myself. I'm here for

235
00:13:49.360 --> 00:13:54.320
<v Speaker 3>one reason. If what I'm saying bears fruit, If what

236
00:13:54.440 --> 00:13:56.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm saying matters to you and you feel like it

237
00:13:57.039 --> 00:14:02.639
<v Speaker 3>helps you, inspires you, educate you, convicts you, and you

238
00:14:02.639 --> 00:14:06.519
<v Speaker 3>know whatever, if that's what it's doing, so it has

239
00:14:06.559 --> 00:14:10.399
<v Speaker 3>some value, some weight, and you keep showing up. I

240
00:14:10.440 --> 00:14:13.399
<v Speaker 3>will do if because maybe there's something here that I

241
00:14:13.399 --> 00:14:16.559
<v Speaker 3>don't even realize is helpful to people. Because I don't

242
00:14:16.559 --> 00:14:19.679
<v Speaker 3>think of myself as some kind of you know, some

243
00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:22.679
<v Speaker 3>kind of genius or whatever. I'm not. I'm just me.

244
00:14:23.639 --> 00:14:30.480
<v Speaker 3>But you have to realize that when God anoints you,

245
00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:33.279
<v Speaker 3>you are who he says you are, now who you

246
00:14:33.360 --> 00:14:37.360
<v Speaker 3>think you are? And so you know, am I now

247
00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:41.720
<v Speaker 3>saying ah, I see, So you're some special anointed of God? Yeah?

248
00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:45.480
<v Speaker 3>I am, actually, but so are you? I mean, if

249
00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:49.559
<v Speaker 3>you know God, you're anointed for a particular territory that

250
00:14:49.600 --> 00:14:52.639
<v Speaker 3>you've been given to be of influence. That's the point.

251
00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:56.600
<v Speaker 3>Jesus christ last words to humans, go into all the world,

252
00:14:57.000 --> 00:15:01.039
<v Speaker 3>make disciples of everybody, teach them. That's it. That's your reason.

253
00:15:01.080 --> 00:15:02.519
<v Speaker 3>Do you want to know what the meaning of life is?

254
00:15:02.679 --> 00:15:05.039
<v Speaker 3>Just gave it to you? Find God and tell others.

255
00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:08.960
<v Speaker 3>That's it. Now you know, how do you get that? What? What?

256
00:15:09.600 --> 00:15:09.720
<v Speaker 4>Uh?

257
00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:14.759
<v Speaker 3>Style of communication? What access do you have to that? What? What?

258
00:15:14.799 --> 00:15:17.960
<v Speaker 3>How do you facilitate that? Through your skill set, through

259
00:15:17.960 --> 00:15:24.200
<v Speaker 3>your job, through your relationships. That's your territory of influence

260
00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:27.960
<v Speaker 3>and you're responsible for it, So go do the work.

261
00:15:28.480 --> 00:15:31.559
<v Speaker 3>So that's the way I framed it is, I'll just

262
00:15:31.840 --> 00:15:35.720
<v Speaker 3>I'll do this if you guys think it matters. And

263
00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:38.360
<v Speaker 3>they kept showing up, and that is all I cared about.

264
00:15:38.679 --> 00:15:41.200
<v Speaker 3>If they're If they're there, then there's fruit. If there's fruit,

265
00:15:41.320 --> 00:15:44.360
<v Speaker 3>it has value. I'll just accept on on that level. Now.

266
00:15:44.639 --> 00:15:47.840
<v Speaker 3>Prior to that, I'd had a guy in California who

267
00:15:47.919 --> 00:15:54.080
<v Speaker 3>was interested in trying to create a podcast kind of

268
00:15:54.159 --> 00:15:57.879
<v Speaker 3>Christian aggregate site. He called it Christian podcast Central, and

269
00:15:57.879 --> 00:16:00.200
<v Speaker 3>he wanted to see if he could monetize it. Asked

270
00:16:00.240 --> 00:16:01.600
<v Speaker 3>me to be on the show, and I'd say, Nah,

271
00:16:01.600 --> 00:16:03.879
<v Speaker 3>I don't do it. It's too hard. I'm not going

272
00:16:03.919 --> 00:16:07.320
<v Speaker 3>to get an audience. I mean to go jump into

273
00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:12.559
<v Speaker 3>the mix of hundreds of thousands of podcasts, I'm not.

274
00:16:12.799 --> 00:16:17.840
<v Speaker 3>I don't have that kind of you know, authority that

275
00:16:17.879 --> 00:16:20.600
<v Speaker 3>people will find me that in compelling compared to the

276
00:16:20.600 --> 00:16:23.799
<v Speaker 3>other people that are already out doing it. But eventually

277
00:16:23.879 --> 00:16:25.600
<v Speaker 3>I told the guy, I'll tell you what, if you

278
00:16:25.679 --> 00:16:29.600
<v Speaker 3>will film me kind of going off on a rant

279
00:16:29.919 --> 00:16:31.840
<v Speaker 3>and give me a set, make it look like a

280
00:16:31.879 --> 00:16:35.320
<v Speaker 3>TV show, more like a talk show, I'll do that

281
00:16:35.399 --> 00:16:38.519
<v Speaker 3>because who knows, I've always been interested in that kind

282
00:16:38.600 --> 00:16:43.759
<v Speaker 3>of style of art, is the talk show kind of

283
00:16:43.759 --> 00:16:47.720
<v Speaker 3>stuff and talking and being funny off the cuff, but

284
00:16:48.159 --> 00:16:50.360
<v Speaker 3>having people on it. I mean, I said, so, if

285
00:16:50.360 --> 00:16:54.679
<v Speaker 3>you let me do that, and see if that gets anywhere,

286
00:16:54.840 --> 00:16:57.039
<v Speaker 3>then that would be worth an investment. So we would

287
00:16:57.080 --> 00:17:02.840
<v Speaker 3>get together and and I would write on basically organic

288
00:17:03.360 --> 00:17:06.960
<v Speaker 3>rants about a topic. Because we had to shoot them

289
00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:11.839
<v Speaker 3>all for costs sake, we had to film them all

290
00:17:12.519 --> 00:17:17.000
<v Speaker 3>in two days, so I couldn't be topical. I couldn't say, hey, today,

291
00:17:17.160 --> 00:17:19.759
<v Speaker 3>this happened. I couldn't do that because we had to

292
00:17:19.759 --> 00:17:23.400
<v Speaker 3>shoot everything and then put it out every week on

293
00:17:23.440 --> 00:17:24.880
<v Speaker 3>its own. So I had to make it more of

294
00:17:25.039 --> 00:17:28.960
<v Speaker 3>just an organic topic that would be evergreen, men and

295
00:17:29.000 --> 00:17:32.640
<v Speaker 3>women are different, marriage, whatever, stuff that would never change

296
00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:38.039
<v Speaker 3>and not be specifically to a topic. And I filmed

297
00:17:38.079 --> 00:17:39.920
<v Speaker 3>a bunch of those, and it was called Bradstein has

298
00:17:39.960 --> 00:17:45.640
<v Speaker 3>Issues as an idea. And once I went over to

299
00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:49.880
<v Speaker 3>this podcast thing, which essentially is a Facebook live YouTube

300
00:17:50.160 --> 00:17:54.400
<v Speaker 3>live that's morphing into a podcast and finding a place

301
00:17:54.400 --> 00:17:56.079
<v Speaker 3>to go put it so people can go listen to

302
00:17:56.079 --> 00:17:59.880
<v Speaker 3>the audio on their own time. It was called the

303
00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:02.000
<v Speaker 3>at Steinshow, and I thought, you know what, I think,

304
00:18:02.039 --> 00:18:05.519
<v Speaker 3>brad Stone has Issues is a great name. It's much

305
00:18:05.640 --> 00:18:09.039
<v Speaker 3>catch here. I like it. Let's just let's just turn

306
00:18:09.119 --> 00:18:12.319
<v Speaker 3>this little other thing that we stopped doing into my

307
00:18:12.440 --> 00:18:16.039
<v Speaker 3>podcast name and let that be the brand. And then

308
00:18:16.039 --> 00:18:20.440
<v Speaker 3>if people stumble upon the old rants, it'll still be

309
00:18:20.519 --> 00:18:22.720
<v Speaker 3>in the category that they were looking in though, and

310
00:18:22.759 --> 00:18:24.880
<v Speaker 3>it might drive people to my podcast, and let's see

311
00:18:24.880 --> 00:18:29.240
<v Speaker 3>what happens. And so obviously a very very very long

312
00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:33.880
<v Speaker 3>answer to your simple question, but I'm just giving the

313
00:18:33.920 --> 00:18:40.279
<v Speaker 3>backstory as to how I ended up in this podcast

314
00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:45.759
<v Speaker 3>that I honestly did not have any intention of having.

315
00:18:46.279 --> 00:18:50.279
<v Speaker 3>I just wanted something to do, and God said that

316
00:18:50.640 --> 00:18:52.160
<v Speaker 3>got bigger plans, and.

317
00:18:52.079 --> 00:18:56.240
<v Speaker 4>That's how it works. That's worked for us. Yeah, yeah, us.

318
00:18:58.039 --> 00:19:03.920
<v Speaker 2>I had read Michaelhauser's Unseen Realm and wanted to expose

319
00:19:03.960 --> 00:19:08.680
<v Speaker 2>that material to some friends and buddies at church. So

320
00:19:09.039 --> 00:19:12.559
<v Speaker 2>I started a small group and I invited, like, you know,

321
00:19:12.640 --> 00:19:16.319
<v Speaker 2>ten twenty people. We had four guys show up, and

322
00:19:16.359 --> 00:19:19.039
<v Speaker 2>then three meetings later, my buddy Steve and he's like,

323
00:19:19.160 --> 00:19:21.119
<v Speaker 2>we should be recording these and.

324
00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:21.759
<v Speaker 4>I was like you.

325
00:19:21.839 --> 00:19:23.680
<v Speaker 2>I was like, man, I ain't doing that. I don't

326
00:19:23.720 --> 00:19:26.279
<v Speaker 2>know the first thing about that. And he's like, well,

327
00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:30.279
<v Speaker 2>I know a guy so his brother's into podcasting. So

328
00:19:30.680 --> 00:19:34.000
<v Speaker 2>we just pitched in and got the equipment and just

329
00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:36.799
<v Speaker 2>like you said, just showed up and the people showed

330
00:19:36.880 --> 00:19:39.000
<v Speaker 2>up and God has blessed it. I mean, it's just

331
00:19:39.160 --> 00:19:41.960
<v Speaker 2>it's amazing. Just when he calls you stepped forward an answer.

332
00:19:43.039 --> 00:19:46.799
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, if you're smart, because you know it'll cost you

333
00:19:46.880 --> 00:19:49.880
<v Speaker 3>if you don't. People don't understand that a Christians Christ

334
00:19:49.880 --> 00:19:53.519
<v Speaker 3>follows don't understand that. I made a joke about it

335
00:19:53.640 --> 00:20:00.559
<v Speaker 3>years ago. I said, you know, being called by God

336
00:20:00.680 --> 00:20:05.039
<v Speaker 3>is like being made in the mafia. God uses you

337
00:20:05.160 --> 00:20:08.960
<v Speaker 3>until he kills you, and that's how it works. There

338
00:20:09.000 --> 00:20:12.480
<v Speaker 3>is no way out, there's no way out, and you

339
00:20:12.519 --> 00:20:15.680
<v Speaker 3>can run. And I was called twenty five years ago

340
00:20:15.720 --> 00:20:18.200
<v Speaker 3>and didn't answer. Until the last few years now, I

341
00:20:18.240 --> 00:20:21.000
<v Speaker 3>was a Christian and I was doing comedy and honoring

342
00:20:21.039 --> 00:20:24.160
<v Speaker 3>God by not cursing and not doing sex jokes and

343
00:20:24.200 --> 00:20:27.200
<v Speaker 3>maybe using biblical references and going into churches and maybe

344
00:20:27.200 --> 00:20:30.559
<v Speaker 3>bringing some inspiration, but just the sort of understanding that

345
00:20:30.599 --> 00:20:32.400
<v Speaker 3>this is a ministry I've been called to and just

346
00:20:32.440 --> 00:20:36.359
<v Speaker 3>sort of leaving the stand up comedy world like that's

347
00:20:36.400 --> 00:20:40.119
<v Speaker 3>who I am, and this is my ministry and it's

348
00:20:40.200 --> 00:20:43.079
<v Speaker 3>delivered in the package of comedy that took me years

349
00:20:43.160 --> 00:20:46.079
<v Speaker 3>to do because I just didn't want to, didn't want to,

350
00:20:46.839 --> 00:20:49.640
<v Speaker 3>didn't want to be in ministry. Didn't want to do that.

351
00:20:50.000 --> 00:20:51.880
<v Speaker 3>Just let me be a comic. I'll throw got a bone,

352
00:20:51.920 --> 00:20:54.559
<v Speaker 3>but I don't want to do anything else. Don't have

353
00:20:54.599 --> 00:20:59.240
<v Speaker 3>any titles put on me when I'm stuck. And what

354
00:20:59.359 --> 00:21:02.000
<v Speaker 3>I say to people as you wake up on the

355
00:21:02.039 --> 00:21:06.640
<v Speaker 3>beach in a whale vomit. Enough times I sit there,

356
00:21:08.440 --> 00:21:12.039
<v Speaker 3>you say yourself, you know what, maybe maybe I'll maybe

357
00:21:12.039 --> 00:21:15.359
<v Speaker 3>I'll head to nine of us. And so that's the key.

358
00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:17.839
<v Speaker 3>You can't get out now. You can run, but you

359
00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:24.319
<v Speaker 3>can't hide, and you can't be at peace because you

360
00:21:24.359 --> 00:21:28.640
<v Speaker 3>are not following your purpose. And so that's how it

361
00:21:28.799 --> 00:21:38.000
<v Speaker 3>ended up with me. Every single man of God he

362
00:21:38.359 --> 00:21:43.680
<v Speaker 3>used in the Bible of significance to do hard and

363
00:21:43.759 --> 00:21:49.880
<v Speaker 3>important work with different people with different educations, different skill

364
00:21:49.960 --> 00:21:54.599
<v Speaker 3>sets and whatever, but they all had one attribute in common.

365
00:21:55.759 --> 00:22:00.519
<v Speaker 3>They were all absolutely convinced they were the wrong man

366
00:22:00.559 --> 00:22:01.119
<v Speaker 3>for the job.

367
00:22:01.440 --> 00:22:03.319
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, all broken people.

368
00:22:03.680 --> 00:22:08.359
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. And the moment you realize I am the last

369
00:22:08.400 --> 00:22:10.920
<v Speaker 3>guy you should be using for this because I know me,

370
00:22:11.920 --> 00:22:14.640
<v Speaker 3>I know my sense, I know my dark places, I

371
00:22:14.680 --> 00:22:21.319
<v Speaker 3>know my secret struggles. So I'm not worthy. So naw,

372
00:22:21.480 --> 00:22:23.440
<v Speaker 3>you really don't want to use me for this thing?

373
00:22:24.240 --> 00:22:26.519
<v Speaker 3>And the moment you do that, God says, oh good,

374
00:22:26.920 --> 00:22:28.680
<v Speaker 3>So you'll get out of the way yourself so I

375
00:22:28.720 --> 00:22:31.119
<v Speaker 3>can just jump move in and work for you, because yeah,

376
00:22:31.160 --> 00:22:33.119
<v Speaker 3>I don't want you to think you can do jack,

377
00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:36.240
<v Speaker 3>because you can't. That's exactly where I need you to be,

378
00:22:37.240 --> 00:22:39.799
<v Speaker 3>so that you are an open vessel for me to

379
00:22:39.960 --> 00:22:43.079
<v Speaker 3>facilitate what I need to say through you. And so

380
00:22:43.240 --> 00:22:47.440
<v Speaker 3>the only thing you're asked to do is obey. That's

381
00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:52.200
<v Speaker 3>your responsibility is I'll do it, and then let the

382
00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:54.400
<v Speaker 3>chips fall what they may, because you're not responsible for

383
00:22:54.440 --> 00:22:57.920
<v Speaker 3>the results. And it's difficult, especially for somebody like me

384
00:22:58.960 --> 00:23:02.519
<v Speaker 3>who comes out of the performing arts. It's difficult to

385
00:23:02.599 --> 00:23:09.279
<v Speaker 3>assess your success because all you know is numbers. Yeah,

386
00:23:09.400 --> 00:23:11.599
<v Speaker 3>I went to the show and three hundred people showed up.

387
00:23:13.079 --> 00:23:14.680
<v Speaker 3>I did the thing, and they paid me, and I

388
00:23:14.720 --> 00:23:17.160
<v Speaker 3>went home and people clapped and they laughed, So I

389
00:23:17.200 --> 00:23:18.839
<v Speaker 3>guess I did it right. You don't know how else

390
00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:25.400
<v Speaker 3>to even evaluate your value. And so oftentimes in things

391
00:23:25.440 --> 00:23:31.119
<v Speaker 3>like like this, where God is starting or launching your ministry,

392
00:23:31.160 --> 00:23:35.759
<v Speaker 3>your specific call, it starts slowly, as it should. You're

393
00:23:35.799 --> 00:23:38.240
<v Speaker 3>not gonna throw you right into to the to the

394
00:23:38.279 --> 00:23:44.759
<v Speaker 3>midst with with with all this power and authority and responsibility,

395
00:23:44.799 --> 00:23:47.400
<v Speaker 3>before you've got your feet wet, tell you understand how

396
00:23:47.400 --> 00:23:49.039
<v Speaker 3>to do it. I mean, you don't do that in

397
00:23:49.079 --> 00:23:52.880
<v Speaker 3>any profession. You got to you gotta be Uh, you've

398
00:23:52.880 --> 00:23:56.119
<v Speaker 3>got to be mentored first. You you have to what

399
00:23:56.160 --> 00:24:00.839
<v Speaker 3>do they used to call it? A Yeah, that's it. Yes,

400
00:24:01.119 --> 00:24:05.640
<v Speaker 3>Uh that you need apprenticeship. That's exactly the word. I

401
00:24:05.680 --> 00:24:09.319
<v Speaker 3>need to teach you first and so that you so

402
00:24:09.359 --> 00:24:13.559
<v Speaker 3>by the time you get into the war. Uh, you

403
00:24:13.559 --> 00:24:19.000
<v Speaker 3>you can defend yourself. You know. I don't want if

404
00:24:19.039 --> 00:24:22.440
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to take a pilot, he's going to fly

405
00:24:22.640 --> 00:24:27.519
<v Speaker 3>my my, my, my plane into some jungle or some

406
00:24:27.680 --> 00:24:30.240
<v Speaker 3>difficult place to land. I don't want a guy in

407
00:24:30.279 --> 00:24:33.880
<v Speaker 3>a sparkling, beautiful uniform and his hat's just right and

408
00:24:33.880 --> 00:24:35.839
<v Speaker 3>he's got a new haircut and he just got out

409
00:24:35.839 --> 00:24:38.519
<v Speaker 3>of his flight trained. Don't want that guy. I want

410
00:24:38.519 --> 00:24:42.759
<v Speaker 3>a guy with one eye, scars on his face, grizzled

411
00:24:43.279 --> 00:24:46.680
<v Speaker 3>where Because that fricking guy has been there, he figured

412
00:24:46.680 --> 00:24:49.359
<v Speaker 3>it out, and he's gotten through hell and came home.

413
00:24:49.519 --> 00:24:53.720
<v Speaker 3>I want him on my side. Yeah, what's that.

414
00:24:53.680 --> 00:24:55.960
<v Speaker 2>You won't be in?

415
00:24:56.319 --> 00:24:58.119
<v Speaker 3>Well, that's it. Well, I haven't seen Ben, but I'm

416
00:24:58.119 --> 00:25:01.279
<v Speaker 3>guessing if he's a one eyed looking dude.

417
00:25:03.799 --> 00:25:04.160
<v Speaker 1>Earlier.

418
00:25:07.519 --> 00:25:08.960
<v Speaker 3>But you know, you want to go to war with

419
00:25:09.079 --> 00:25:14.400
<v Speaker 3>men that have been in war. If you find if

420
00:25:14.400 --> 00:25:17.680
<v Speaker 3>you're on a team and when the game's over, your

421
00:25:18.039 --> 00:25:22.160
<v Speaker 3>uniform is spotless, it means you didn't do anything. You

422
00:25:22.200 --> 00:25:25.000
<v Speaker 3>didn't play, you didn't get in. I don't want you.

423
00:25:25.279 --> 00:25:28.039
<v Speaker 3>I want the guy with a freaking dirt and blood

424
00:25:28.079 --> 00:25:32.000
<v Speaker 3>and half ripped off crap. That guy played he was

425
00:25:32.079 --> 00:25:34.799
<v Speaker 3>in a war. I want that guy that's a masculine

426
00:25:35.640 --> 00:25:39.880
<v Speaker 3>uh warrior that I need. It's why it's so crucial

427
00:25:39.880 --> 00:25:47.079
<v Speaker 3>that masculinity is revered and lifted up in a culture

428
00:25:47.119 --> 00:25:48.039
<v Speaker 3>that fears it.

429
00:25:49.039 --> 00:25:49.319
<v Speaker 4>Uh.

430
00:25:49.640 --> 00:25:53.960
<v Speaker 3>They actually have the audac for the same people identifying it.

431
00:25:54.759 --> 00:25:57.880
<v Speaker 3>You know, the same people that talk about identifying as

432
00:25:57.920 --> 00:26:01.920
<v Speaker 3>this magic word that as soon as identify something, I

433
00:26:02.000 --> 00:26:05.480
<v Speaker 3>magically am and you need to respect that. You need

434
00:26:05.519 --> 00:26:08.160
<v Speaker 3>to respect that. You need to whether you like it

435
00:26:08.279 --> 00:26:10.319
<v Speaker 3>or not. You whatever I say I am, you have

436
00:26:10.359 --> 00:26:15.319
<v Speaker 3>to agreep the illusions. You have to. You have to

437
00:26:15.359 --> 00:26:19.160
<v Speaker 3>because what I identify as is my essence and it

438
00:26:19.200 --> 00:26:24.279
<v Speaker 3>has to be dignified. Those same people will take masculinity

439
00:26:24.359 --> 00:26:29.319
<v Speaker 3>which is my identity, and call it toxic? What how

440
00:26:29.599 --> 00:26:33.440
<v Speaker 3>dare you? I actually am a man? I actually really am.

441
00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:37.359
<v Speaker 3>I was here first. Okay, if you can't pee on

442
00:26:37.400 --> 00:26:39.680
<v Speaker 3>a treat, you ain't me, So you don't get to join,

443
00:26:40.079 --> 00:26:42.440
<v Speaker 3>you don't get to play with us. We're real, We're

444
00:26:42.440 --> 00:26:45.480
<v Speaker 3>the legit everything you're trying to be. I'm already am.

445
00:26:45.720 --> 00:26:48.960
<v Speaker 3>You're trying to counterfeit what I am, and I'm already there.

446
00:26:49.119 --> 00:26:51.759
<v Speaker 3>So I'm going to fight for those ideas. That doesn't

447
00:26:51.799 --> 00:26:56.799
<v Speaker 3>mean that you don't be kind or that you can't

448
00:26:56.839 --> 00:26:59.359
<v Speaker 3>be sensitive at times. That's part of being a man

449
00:26:59.519 --> 00:27:02.000
<v Speaker 3>is learning how didn't become what you need to be

450
00:27:02.160 --> 00:27:06.799
<v Speaker 3>for every specific moment. But the idea of someone having

451
00:27:06.799 --> 00:27:13.400
<v Speaker 3>them in the audacity to decry my very essence as masculine,

452
00:27:13.480 --> 00:27:21.400
<v Speaker 3>as toxic, I draw my sword against such nonsense. And

453
00:27:21.400 --> 00:27:24.119
<v Speaker 3>why would they fear men? Because when men get together

454
00:27:24.359 --> 00:27:26.920
<v Speaker 3>in are like minded, all we do is create things

455
00:27:26.960 --> 00:27:30.759
<v Speaker 3>like the United States, the Constitution, airplanes, computers, and we

456
00:27:30.880 --> 00:27:35.279
<v Speaker 3>land on the moon. That's what we do because we're essential.

457
00:27:35.599 --> 00:27:38.000
<v Speaker 3>We were made first, and we were created to go

458
00:27:38.640 --> 00:27:46.599
<v Speaker 3>and habit the earth, make more and use the raw materials.

459
00:27:46.599 --> 00:27:50.480
<v Speaker 3>God gave us to make the best out of the

460
00:27:50.519 --> 00:27:51.920
<v Speaker 3>world that he gave us.

461
00:27:52.920 --> 00:27:54.400
<v Speaker 4>Amen, no doubt about it.

462
00:27:54.400 --> 00:27:56.680
<v Speaker 1>As I'm gonna say, you think you look back to

463
00:27:56.720 --> 00:27:59.000
<v Speaker 1>the garden of Eden, then you know God made Adam

464
00:27:59.039 --> 00:28:02.200
<v Speaker 1>and didn't sit there and say, well, Adam, what do

465
00:28:02.240 --> 00:28:04.359
<v Speaker 1>you feel like today? You know you wanna you wanna

466
00:28:04.359 --> 00:28:06.000
<v Speaker 1>wear a bikini today? Or do you want to you

467
00:28:06.039 --> 00:28:10.039
<v Speaker 1>know wear It's just there's no He made man, right,

468
00:28:10.079 --> 00:28:12.480
<v Speaker 1>and then he made woman from the rib.

469
00:28:13.279 --> 00:28:17.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Well, and like if you're talking about the garden,

470
00:28:17.640 --> 00:28:22.359
<v Speaker 3>which is the beginning, notice what God said to do

471
00:28:22.680 --> 00:28:28.359
<v Speaker 3>he didn't make. It wasn't a socialist Marxist arrangement. All right,

472
00:28:28.400 --> 00:28:30.200
<v Speaker 3>I made you. Now you go sit and relax on

473
00:28:30.200 --> 00:28:33.759
<v Speaker 3>a hammock while I feed you. He said, go tend

474
00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:36.920
<v Speaker 3>to the garden. You got work to do. What you're

475
00:28:36.920 --> 00:28:40.160
<v Speaker 3>gonna You're gonna work now. You get things to do,

476
00:28:40.720 --> 00:28:41.759
<v Speaker 3>things to accomplish.

477
00:28:42.279 --> 00:28:47.160
<v Speaker 1>People have to work, yes, real, well, some of us.

478
00:28:49.079 --> 00:28:50.559
<v Speaker 4>I just get a check.

479
00:28:51.039 --> 00:28:54.240
<v Speaker 1>We just see that. It's just the degradation of society

480
00:28:54.359 --> 00:28:57.079
<v Speaker 1>is just It's one of the things that I cannot

481
00:28:57.160 --> 00:28:59.440
<v Speaker 1>watch the news. I just can't do it because I

482
00:28:59.480 --> 00:29:01.480
<v Speaker 1>get angry.

483
00:29:01.559 --> 00:29:02.240
<v Speaker 4>I turned it off.

484
00:29:02.319 --> 00:29:04.519
<v Speaker 1>I just get angry because you just see the degradation

485
00:29:04.559 --> 00:29:07.599
<v Speaker 1>of society. There's a there was a news article that

486
00:29:07.759 --> 00:29:11.119
<v Speaker 1>came out last week and I can't remember what state

487
00:29:11.160 --> 00:29:16.200
<v Speaker 1>it's in, but there's the governor's put out a a

488
00:29:16.319 --> 00:29:21.519
<v Speaker 1>grant for anybody who is transgender to get twelve hundred

489
00:29:21.559 --> 00:29:24.640
<v Speaker 1>dollars a month as as a and they even worded

490
00:29:24.680 --> 00:29:29.519
<v Speaker 1>it as reparations for all the struggles and hardships they've

491
00:29:29.519 --> 00:29:32.720
<v Speaker 1>gone through. An actual and it doesn't and it says

492
00:29:32.839 --> 00:29:37.079
<v Speaker 1>it was based on the honesty policy. So if you

493
00:29:37.160 --> 00:29:39.039
<v Speaker 1>come forward, I could walk down there and say, well,

494
00:29:39.240 --> 00:29:43.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm I feel like Tina today. Well here's twelve hundred bucks.

495
00:29:44.480 --> 00:29:47.119
<v Speaker 1>But that's the society we're in right now, and that

496
00:29:47.359 --> 00:29:49.079
<v Speaker 1>just it. Wow.

497
00:29:49.880 --> 00:29:54.039
<v Speaker 2>Well, what I hate, honestly of that country is they

498
00:29:54.160 --> 00:30:00.160
<v Speaker 2>incentivize ungodliness. I mean, if you think about it, with

499
00:30:00.200 --> 00:30:03.279
<v Speaker 2>that situation you just talking about, Oh, you just claim

500
00:30:03.319 --> 00:30:06.200
<v Speaker 2>to be transgender, you get these government funds, and then

501
00:30:06.200 --> 00:30:09.759
<v Speaker 2>at the same time they encourage you know, broken families,

502
00:30:10.160 --> 00:30:15.599
<v Speaker 2>A single mother gets subsidized housing, food stamps and all

503
00:30:15.640 --> 00:30:19.079
<v Speaker 2>these things. And it's like whether and I think it's

504
00:30:19.079 --> 00:30:24.480
<v Speaker 2>on purpose. Its designed to bust up the home. And

505
00:30:24.519 --> 00:30:27.319
<v Speaker 2>then while people that are trying to live, you know,

506
00:30:27.440 --> 00:30:31.799
<v Speaker 2>good whole, godly lives, getting married and creating families, you know,

507
00:30:32.119 --> 00:30:34.319
<v Speaker 2>they don't get any support or any kind of help.

508
00:30:34.359 --> 00:30:36.839
<v Speaker 4>And it's just you can't.

509
00:30:38.559 --> 00:30:48.079
<v Speaker 2>It's just a system that's built to manufacture just chaos, intopravity.

510
00:30:48.519 --> 00:30:49.480
<v Speaker 3>What are you gonna do about it?

511
00:30:50.319 --> 00:30:52.680
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I don't think you can do is vote.

512
00:30:52.680 --> 00:30:55.039
<v Speaker 2>But I mean, and I'm being honest, and I know

513
00:30:55.079 --> 00:30:57.200
<v Speaker 2>I shouldn't be this way. I always vote, I mean,

514
00:30:57.240 --> 00:31:00.720
<v Speaker 2>I always vote, but it's like, honestly with me, it's like,

515
00:31:00.799 --> 00:31:04.039
<v Speaker 2>after twenty twenty happened, It's like, how does a man

516
00:31:04.960 --> 00:31:08.599
<v Speaker 2>that gets more votes than any sitting president in American history,

517
00:31:08.640 --> 00:31:14.000
<v Speaker 2>It sells out stadiums when he speaks, gets beat by

518
00:31:14.039 --> 00:31:17.839
<v Speaker 2>a man with just a few thousand followers and most

519
00:31:17.839 --> 00:31:21.279
<v Speaker 2>of them are robots, can't even feel a high school

520
00:31:21.319 --> 00:31:28.400
<v Speaker 2>gymnasium when he speaks, wins got more votes in the Obama.

521
00:31:28.880 --> 00:31:29.319
<v Speaker 4>It's like.

522
00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:36.759
<v Speaker 2>You can't help but feel just like the the deck

523
00:31:36.880 --> 00:31:37.880
<v Speaker 2>is stacked against you.

524
00:31:38.079 --> 00:31:41.319
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, you know what I mean. But you have to vote.

525
00:31:41.359 --> 00:31:43.039
<v Speaker 2>That's your god given right, you know, I mean, you

526
00:31:43.119 --> 00:31:47.000
<v Speaker 2>have to go vote but it's it's frustrating at times.

527
00:31:47.599 --> 00:31:49.640
<v Speaker 1>But I think it goes beyond that. When we're talking

528
00:31:49.640 --> 00:31:53.480
<v Speaker 1>about what can we do, it's it's exactly what we're

529
00:31:53.480 --> 00:31:55.960
<v Speaker 1>doing right now. It's what it's following. Like Brad said,

530
00:31:55.960 --> 00:31:59.880
<v Speaker 1>it's following what God has you. You know you're planning,

531
00:32:00.279 --> 00:32:02.920
<v Speaker 1>you know that He has for you is reaching as

532
00:32:02.920 --> 00:32:05.359
<v Speaker 1>many people. God didn't tell us, you know, that everything

533
00:32:05.400 --> 00:32:07.319
<v Speaker 1>was going to be easy, and it did say at

534
00:32:07.359 --> 00:32:11.240
<v Speaker 1>the end that Christians were going to suffer. Christians are

535
00:32:11.240 --> 00:32:14.720
<v Speaker 1>going to be under attack. It's gonna happen, and it's

536
00:32:14.720 --> 00:32:16.839
<v Speaker 1>gonna affect everybody around us. But what we have to

537
00:32:16.880 --> 00:32:19.880
<v Speaker 1>do is follow through in God's calling for us as

538
00:32:19.920 --> 00:32:24.880
<v Speaker 1>long as we're bearing fruit, as you said, from doing

539
00:32:24.920 --> 00:32:26.920
<v Speaker 1>what we're doing, because we're doing what God's telling us

540
00:32:26.960 --> 00:32:32.599
<v Speaker 1>to do that and in the end we still win,

541
00:32:33.079 --> 00:32:34.720
<v Speaker 1>right we know the end of the story, we know

542
00:32:34.839 --> 00:32:37.400
<v Speaker 1>we win. It's going to be bumpy along the road,

543
00:32:37.680 --> 00:32:39.920
<v Speaker 1>but we got to see how many people, how many

544
00:32:39.920 --> 00:32:41.640
<v Speaker 1>people can we take with us to heaven when we

545
00:32:41.680 --> 00:32:43.400
<v Speaker 1>when we're when we're on our way, when it gets

546
00:32:43.400 --> 00:32:45.240
<v Speaker 1>to that point when the trumpet sounds, you know.

547
00:32:47.119 --> 00:32:50.960
<v Speaker 3>Yep, well I just made it a point when I

548
00:32:51.000 --> 00:32:53.680
<v Speaker 3>and I've said it many times on my podcast, is

549
00:32:54.640 --> 00:33:01.119
<v Speaker 3>I'm not interested in a podcast that tells conservatives how

550
00:33:01.119 --> 00:33:06.920
<v Speaker 3>smart they are. Uh. There's certain formulaic rhetoric I hear

551
00:33:06.960 --> 00:33:13.279
<v Speaker 3>all the time from conservatives podcast, like they'll bring up

552
00:33:13.319 --> 00:33:16.079
<v Speaker 3>some story and they'll go so and so said blah

553
00:33:16.119 --> 00:33:18.799
<v Speaker 3>blah blah bo he said, could you imagine what would

554
00:33:18.799 --> 00:33:22.480
<v Speaker 3>happen if a conservative has said that, like they did

555
00:33:22.480 --> 00:33:26.160
<v Speaker 3>some insight, like they had some deep wisdom and they

556
00:33:26.240 --> 00:33:28.799
<v Speaker 3>got into the deep places and look what I've discovered,

557
00:33:28.960 --> 00:33:30.839
<v Speaker 3>And then we all sit and go, oh my god,

558
00:33:30.920 --> 00:33:34.039
<v Speaker 3>thank you, you're right. Never even never even thought about comparing.

559
00:33:34.440 --> 00:33:38.400
<v Speaker 3>I don't need to hear that ever again. Obviously, obviously,

560
00:33:38.440 --> 00:33:41.680
<v Speaker 3>if you're a Christian Conservative, you are shadow band, you

561
00:33:41.720 --> 00:33:47.079
<v Speaker 3>are kicked off, you are censored, you are maligned, you

562
00:33:47.160 --> 00:33:51.559
<v Speaker 3>are attacked, you are demean that's obvious. Don't need to

563
00:33:51.599 --> 00:33:55.640
<v Speaker 3>ever say it again. I'm not five. My thing is,

564
00:33:56.000 --> 00:33:58.759
<v Speaker 3>what are you going to do about it? If you're

565
00:33:58.839 --> 00:34:02.160
<v Speaker 3>not having everyone in your podcasts with some marching orders,

566
00:34:03.039 --> 00:34:05.680
<v Speaker 3>if not every one of them gives you some tool

567
00:34:06.920 --> 00:34:09.840
<v Speaker 3>to take with you to the next to day two

568
00:34:10.159 --> 00:34:12.400
<v Speaker 3>when you are done or whatever. And I'm not saying

569
00:34:12.400 --> 00:34:14.320
<v Speaker 3>I've always done it right. I don't know, you know,

570
00:34:14.360 --> 00:34:16.800
<v Speaker 3>you get caught up in trying to speak to the

571
00:34:16.800 --> 00:34:19.159
<v Speaker 3>folks that you're talking to or do the work you're doing,

572
00:34:19.239 --> 00:34:21.440
<v Speaker 3>and and uh, you know, I don't I don't want

573
00:34:21.440 --> 00:34:24.519
<v Speaker 3>to even turn that into a formula as well. But

574
00:34:24.880 --> 00:34:33.519
<v Speaker 3>I just can't stand whining and hand ringing over crap

575
00:34:33.559 --> 00:34:38.239
<v Speaker 3>we already know. Give me solutions. What can we do?

576
00:34:38.320 --> 00:34:40.519
<v Speaker 3>I tell people, you are the government of the United

577
00:34:40.559 --> 00:34:45.119
<v Speaker 3>States of America, not not Joe Biden, not Kamala Harris,

578
00:34:45.639 --> 00:34:50.199
<v Speaker 3>not Mitch McConnell. Okay, you're not. They're not the government.

579
00:34:50.559 --> 00:34:56.480
<v Speaker 3>They represent the government, which is me, a citizen of

580
00:34:56.480 --> 00:34:59.400
<v Speaker 3>the United States of America. I am in a republic

581
00:34:59.679 --> 00:35:03.800
<v Speaker 3>where I vote for representatives of my voice. I voted

582
00:35:03.800 --> 00:35:06.239
<v Speaker 3>for you to go represent me, Go talk for brad

583
00:35:06.280 --> 00:35:08.800
<v Speaker 3>Stein in the Senate, in the House, and tell them

584
00:35:08.800 --> 00:35:11.000
<v Speaker 3>what I think about A, B and C. Because that's

585
00:35:11.000 --> 00:35:14.119
<v Speaker 3>why I'm You just represent You don't rule me, You

586
00:35:14.239 --> 00:35:19.199
<v Speaker 3>represent me. So we're we're living, you know, in a

587
00:35:19.840 --> 00:35:26.360
<v Speaker 3>culture that so many of Americans, and they proved it

588
00:35:26.559 --> 00:35:31.239
<v Speaker 3>with the greatness of the great result of Corona was

589
00:35:31.239 --> 00:35:35.679
<v Speaker 3>it exposed so much it helped us get some clarity.

590
00:35:36.280 --> 00:35:41.000
<v Speaker 3>I now know how many Americans are fools. I now

591
00:35:41.039 --> 00:35:45.199
<v Speaker 3>know how many Americans don't treasure liberty. I now know

592
00:35:45.280 --> 00:35:48.599
<v Speaker 3>how many Americans don't care about the First Amendment and

593
00:35:48.719 --> 00:35:52.719
<v Speaker 3>especially religious liberties. I know how many Americans are cowards.

594
00:35:53.159 --> 00:35:55.719
<v Speaker 3>I now know how many Americans will turn on me

595
00:35:56.320 --> 00:35:58.719
<v Speaker 3>when they're supposed to be a fellow citizen. I know

596
00:35:58.800 --> 00:36:02.320
<v Speaker 3>how now much which fellow Americans can be recruited to

597
00:36:02.360 --> 00:36:05.119
<v Speaker 3>go to Auschwitz and be a guard, like happening to

598
00:36:05.199 --> 00:36:09.880
<v Speaker 3>German citizens. I see it all now. Those who wore masks,

599
00:36:09.920 --> 00:36:13.440
<v Speaker 3>it doesn't matter how many times, and it's all come

600
00:36:13.480 --> 00:36:17.920
<v Speaker 3>out now. It didn't work, didn't help, didn't change. They're

601
00:36:17.960 --> 00:36:23.559
<v Speaker 3>wearing a mask like a rabbit's foot to pretend that

602
00:36:23.639 --> 00:36:27.480
<v Speaker 3>they've done so. I mean, I'm looking at American citizens

603
00:36:28.400 --> 00:36:36.679
<v Speaker 3>who are like children begging the government, which is so

604
00:36:36.960 --> 00:36:41.239
<v Speaker 3>corrupt in the United States. That don't I vote only

605
00:36:41.400 --> 00:36:46.639
<v Speaker 3>out of my own dignity of autonomy. I don't trust

606
00:36:46.639 --> 00:36:51.840
<v Speaker 3>any of them. I find the Republicans more despicable than

607
00:36:51.880 --> 00:36:58.000
<v Speaker 3>the Democrats by far, because the Democrats have completely given

608
00:36:58.039 --> 00:37:00.239
<v Speaker 3>their party over to the left and They're demonic. There

609
00:37:00.320 --> 00:37:04.679
<v Speaker 3>is no It's the most demonic ruling class I've ever

610
00:37:04.719 --> 00:37:08.559
<v Speaker 3>seen in my country. Let's butcher babies up until the

611
00:37:08.559 --> 00:37:10.559
<v Speaker 3>second before they're born. And if they are born, and

612
00:37:10.599 --> 00:37:12.760
<v Speaker 3>you win for abortional and we'll leave them to die.

613
00:37:12.880 --> 00:37:17.199
<v Speaker 3>This is demonic, This is moloch, this is sacrificial children.

614
00:37:17.519 --> 00:37:24.599
<v Speaker 3>This is evol Men and women are not different. If

615
00:37:24.679 --> 00:37:27.239
<v Speaker 3>you say magically you're a woman, you say you're a man,

616
00:37:27.280 --> 00:37:32.039
<v Speaker 3>you are it's just making crap up. It's so absurd

617
00:37:33.840 --> 00:37:39.719
<v Speaker 3>you couldn't even made a movie. Is surreal as this,

618
00:37:40.440 --> 00:37:45.320
<v Speaker 3>And yet it literally that nothing could be more perfectly

619
00:37:48.559 --> 00:37:53.039
<v Speaker 3>illustrate the Democratic Party than the fact that their champion

620
00:37:53.199 --> 00:37:57.320
<v Speaker 3>is a Fetterman and Joe Biden, two men who have

621
00:37:57.639 --> 00:38:03.639
<v Speaker 3>actual brain damage, as their heroes. We will vote. This

622
00:38:03.679 --> 00:38:08.599
<v Speaker 3>isn't hyperbole, it's not right wing rhetoric. It's not some

623
00:38:08.719 --> 00:38:16.920
<v Speaker 3>Republican maligning the Democrat. Vetterman had a stroke, he has

624
00:38:16.960 --> 00:38:22.360
<v Speaker 3>brain damage, and they voted for him to lead them. What.

625
00:38:22.840 --> 00:38:27.360
<v Speaker 3>I can't write a punchline that that good. You have

626
00:38:27.559 --> 00:38:32.559
<v Speaker 3>demonstrated this is what represents the way Democrats think. People

627
00:38:32.639 --> 00:38:34.840
<v Speaker 3>with brain damage are our rulers.

628
00:38:34.960 --> 00:38:37.039
<v Speaker 2>Well, do you really think that the American people are

629
00:38:37.039 --> 00:38:40.880
<v Speaker 2>honestly that that stupid or the system is that corrupt.

630
00:38:40.519 --> 00:38:45.119
<v Speaker 4>In European both that's okay. I was about to say, yeah.

631
00:38:44.679 --> 00:38:47.400
<v Speaker 3>The correct the system is corrupt. Carry Lake was stolen

632
00:38:47.440 --> 00:38:54.400
<v Speaker 3>from Oh yeah, John Bush Bush Trump. Obviously his election

633
00:38:54.519 --> 00:38:58.920
<v Speaker 3>was stolen in twenty twenty. All of that is true,

634
00:38:59.519 --> 00:39:02.320
<v Speaker 3>and I was so proud I would listen to this

635
00:39:02.360 --> 00:39:05.800
<v Speaker 3>woman speak and the way she attacked political correctness, which

636
00:39:05.840 --> 00:39:08.119
<v Speaker 3>is what I was interested in with Trump when people

637
00:39:08.119 --> 00:39:10.000
<v Speaker 3>would ask me back in the day before he was

638
00:39:10.039 --> 00:39:14.320
<v Speaker 3>even the representative of the Republican Party, what did I

639
00:39:14.400 --> 00:39:16.800
<v Speaker 3>think of him? Is that I don't know. I don't

640
00:39:16.840 --> 00:39:20.000
<v Speaker 3>know if he'll be a good president or not. Here's

641
00:39:20.000 --> 00:39:23.599
<v Speaker 3>what I do know. He's a businessman, and maybe what

642
00:39:23.679 --> 00:39:26.639
<v Speaker 3>we need right now is a businessman, because he will

643
00:39:26.639 --> 00:39:29.639
<v Speaker 3>make the cuts that are necessary for the federal deficit

644
00:39:29.719 --> 00:39:32.960
<v Speaker 3>that has to be fixed. He'll do that. Businessmen don't

645
00:39:32.960 --> 00:39:36.119
<v Speaker 3>give a crap whether you get your feelings hurt. Businessmen

646
00:39:36.159 --> 00:39:39.480
<v Speaker 3>don't give a crap whether somebody's going to be displaced.

647
00:39:39.519 --> 00:39:42.480
<v Speaker 3>We'll say, look, this isn't profitable. We have to slash

648
00:39:42.519 --> 00:39:44.199
<v Speaker 3>a B and s. Yeah, Well, what am I going

649
00:39:44.280 --> 00:39:46.639
<v Speaker 3>to do. I don't know. Good luck anyways. Next, hey,

650
00:39:46.760 --> 00:39:50.440
<v Speaker 3>you're being insensitive, screw you. Next it's like, holy, this

651
00:39:50.480 --> 00:39:54.119
<v Speaker 3>is who we need. We need that guy who simply

652
00:39:54.239 --> 00:40:01.039
<v Speaker 3>stands on principle. Is he a good moral guy? Oh no,

653
00:40:01.119 --> 00:40:04.360
<v Speaker 3>he isn't either of mine.

654
00:40:04.639 --> 00:40:04.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

655
00:40:05.920 --> 00:40:09.559
<v Speaker 3>So, uh. I voted for him because I thought, well,

656
00:40:09.559 --> 00:40:15.039
<v Speaker 3>maybe he'll go in. I presumed he wouldn't be controlled

657
00:40:15.039 --> 00:40:19.599
<v Speaker 3>by lobbyists because he already has money, he already has power,

658
00:40:19.840 --> 00:40:22.079
<v Speaker 3>he already has fame. So a lot of the things

659
00:40:22.079 --> 00:40:24.960
<v Speaker 3>that are used to these to this first year senator

660
00:40:25.039 --> 00:40:27.119
<v Speaker 3>or congressman that can be used to entice them and

661
00:40:27.199 --> 00:40:31.800
<v Speaker 3>control them and get them into your grid, he isn't

662
00:40:31.800 --> 00:40:34.840
<v Speaker 3>gonna instially move him because he's already got everything that

663
00:40:34.880 --> 00:40:39.519
<v Speaker 3>they usually used to to to uh, to control you.

664
00:40:39.719 --> 00:40:42.639
<v Speaker 3>He already has it. So I felt like, maybe this

665
00:40:43.000 --> 00:40:48.079
<v Speaker 3>monkey wrench in this broken system will shake things up,

666
00:40:48.119 --> 00:40:49.559
<v Speaker 3>which is exactly what he said he was gonna do.

667
00:40:49.599 --> 00:40:54.239
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna drain the swamp. Well, boy, boy, did we

668
00:40:54.320 --> 00:40:58.159
<v Speaker 3>see what the swamp does when it's being exposed? And

669
00:40:58.239 --> 00:41:03.000
<v Speaker 3>so I appreciated that he wasn't politically correct. I appreciate

670
00:41:03.079 --> 00:41:05.760
<v Speaker 3>that he's spoken, you know when people ask me about

671
00:41:07.480 --> 00:41:12.599
<v Speaker 3>Corona and how I handled that. As a performer who

672
00:41:12.639 --> 00:41:16.360
<v Speaker 3>needs a live audience, that's how I make my livelihood. Well,

673
00:41:16.360 --> 00:41:17.719
<v Speaker 3>I said, well, first thing I did is I went

674
00:41:17.760 --> 00:41:20.800
<v Speaker 3>to I went looking for states that I knew wouldn't

675
00:41:20.840 --> 00:41:23.280
<v Speaker 3>play this game. I went to Idaho, I went to

676
00:41:23.360 --> 00:41:26.280
<v Speaker 3>sort of North Dakota. I went to South Dakota. Some

677
00:41:26.320 --> 00:41:30.199
<v Speaker 3>of the southern states kind of you could depend on

678
00:41:30.280 --> 00:41:32.679
<v Speaker 3>a little bit. They still kind of got nervous and

679
00:41:32.800 --> 00:41:36.320
<v Speaker 3>scared as well. But obviously there were blue states. You

680
00:41:36.320 --> 00:41:39.519
<v Speaker 3>didn't have a shot. They were full totalitarian. But I

681
00:41:39.559 --> 00:41:41.880
<v Speaker 3>didn't care. I don't care if I go to California.

682
00:41:41.920 --> 00:41:43.840
<v Speaker 3>I wanted to go where people wanted to hear what

683
00:41:43.840 --> 00:41:46.760
<v Speaker 3>I had to say and be enthused by it and

684
00:41:46.800 --> 00:41:51.239
<v Speaker 3>be inspired by it. I actually have a video of

685
00:41:51.320 --> 00:41:55.360
<v Speaker 3>me in Chicago O'Hare Airport in twenty twenty. I filmed

686
00:41:55.360 --> 00:41:58.360
<v Speaker 3>myself with no masks. I wouldn't wear a masks walk

687
00:41:58.400 --> 00:42:02.559
<v Speaker 3>in Chicago up and down this twenty twenty before people

688
00:42:02.599 --> 00:42:06.000
<v Speaker 3>started getting the balls to sap back a little bit

689
00:42:06.079 --> 00:42:08.039
<v Speaker 3>and that, and most of them didn't do that until

690
00:42:08.159 --> 00:42:10.920
<v Speaker 3>after a thing was over and after all the data

691
00:42:10.960 --> 00:42:15.639
<v Speaker 3>come in, and after it was safe to stand up

692
00:42:15.679 --> 00:42:18.159
<v Speaker 3>for things, I did it when it mattered, when it

693
00:42:18.199 --> 00:42:22.159
<v Speaker 3>costs you something. Why because I'm a hero. No, because

694
00:42:22.199 --> 00:42:27.440
<v Speaker 3>I'm American and I'm a Christian, That's why. Because I

695
00:42:27.440 --> 00:42:29.440
<v Speaker 3>put my money where my mouth is. And when I

696
00:42:29.480 --> 00:42:31.639
<v Speaker 3>was walking down there and put my phone up and

697
00:42:31.639 --> 00:42:33.199
<v Speaker 3>you could see all the people behind me with their

698
00:42:33.239 --> 00:42:38.039
<v Speaker 3>masks going, I was naive enough to believe that people

699
00:42:38.159 --> 00:42:41.519
<v Speaker 3>American citizens in that airport would look at me. Not

700
00:42:41.639 --> 00:42:44.000
<v Speaker 3>all of them, not most of them, but some of

701
00:42:44.000 --> 00:42:48.639
<v Speaker 3>them would look at me and go, damn it, he's right, No,

702
00:42:49.119 --> 00:42:51.559
<v Speaker 3>this can't be the way we do this. I literally

703
00:42:51.599 --> 00:42:55.039
<v Speaker 3>believe that's what would happen. I would inspire somebody to say,

704
00:42:55.119 --> 00:42:57.119
<v Speaker 3>you know what, he's right, the Empress naked, he's right

705
00:42:57.719 --> 00:43:02.360
<v Speaker 3>because we all love. Those stories costs you something. Love

706
00:43:02.400 --> 00:43:04.760
<v Speaker 3>Those stories tell you you're the guy all by yourself.

707
00:43:05.400 --> 00:43:08.679
<v Speaker 3>And that's where I saw the ballish cowards of Americans,

708
00:43:08.840 --> 00:43:11.039
<v Speaker 3>and it broke my heart because I realized we can't

709
00:43:11.079 --> 00:43:14.119
<v Speaker 3>survive as a nation because the Revolutionary War Americans, the

710
00:43:14.119 --> 00:43:17.119
<v Speaker 3>Civil War Americans, the World War one and two Americans

711
00:43:19.920 --> 00:43:24.159
<v Speaker 3>two thousand and one bring down the towers of Islamic

712
00:43:24.239 --> 00:43:29.039
<v Speaker 3>terrorism Americans, those who showed unity and a desire for

713
00:43:29.119 --> 00:43:33.000
<v Speaker 3>freedom in America and liberty as more sacro sank than

714
00:43:33.039 --> 00:43:39.599
<v Speaker 3>your little feelings. Or you're free, you're not freedom because

715
00:43:39.599 --> 00:43:41.960
<v Speaker 3>you're giving that away, your ability to just sort of

716
00:43:41.960 --> 00:43:45.480
<v Speaker 3>go about your business without ever having to sacrifice anything.

717
00:43:45.760 --> 00:43:49.320
<v Speaker 3>Those people that are necessary for this country to continue,

718
00:43:49.400 --> 00:43:57.199
<v Speaker 3>they're gone. They're gone, and I'm not gonna sit and

719
00:43:57.199 --> 00:43:59.480
<v Speaker 3>talk about it anymore. I'm looking for warriors who want

720
00:43:59.480 --> 00:44:02.559
<v Speaker 3>to fight and do something about it. That's what I'm doing.

721
00:44:03.280 --> 00:44:05.280
<v Speaker 3>And if you're a Christian and you're given me your

722
00:44:05.599 --> 00:44:10.679
<v Speaker 3>freaking rhetoric, I'm not interested in you. You can live

723
00:44:10.679 --> 00:44:13.239
<v Speaker 3>by yourself. You can find your own church. I'm fighting

724
00:44:13.280 --> 00:44:16.320
<v Speaker 3>with real men who have real swords and real in it.

725
00:44:16.480 --> 00:44:18.599
<v Speaker 3>And that's the sort of spirit, the sort of the

726
00:44:18.639 --> 00:44:21.199
<v Speaker 3>word of God, the sort of truth. When people would

727
00:44:21.199 --> 00:44:23.199
<v Speaker 3>ask me, aren't you supposed to be the best citizen

728
00:44:23.320 --> 00:44:26.840
<v Speaker 3>as a as a Christian? Yeah, I am. But you

729
00:44:26.920 --> 00:44:29.880
<v Speaker 3>know what, there are some things that are sacro saning.

730
00:44:30.440 --> 00:44:34.760
<v Speaker 3>There are some areas of biblical aspect of foundational truths

731
00:44:34.840 --> 00:44:38.840
<v Speaker 3>that will never change. Jesus Christ was sinless. Jesus Christ

732
00:44:38.880 --> 00:44:41.960
<v Speaker 3>was born in virgin he died in Rose again bodily.

733
00:44:42.000 --> 00:44:45.760
<v Speaker 3>He is the only way to get to Heaven. There

734
00:44:45.760 --> 00:44:48.480
<v Speaker 3>are certain things that are the principles of Christianity that

735
00:44:48.519 --> 00:44:51.440
<v Speaker 3>will never change or be altered at all. But there

736
00:44:51.480 --> 00:44:54.239
<v Speaker 3>are some times in living your Christian life that things

737
00:44:54.239 --> 00:44:56.960
<v Speaker 3>are gray. But we're not sure what to do. There

738
00:44:57.000 --> 00:44:59.880
<v Speaker 3>isn't some obvious answer. So I said, I do know

739
00:45:00.119 --> 00:45:03.360
<v Speaker 3>what I can do, though, there is one principle of

740
00:45:03.440 --> 00:45:06.960
<v Speaker 3>Christianity that I know I can rely on. When things

741
00:45:06.960 --> 00:45:09.199
<v Speaker 3>are like this, well, we're not sure exactly how to

742
00:45:09.320 --> 00:45:12.679
<v Speaker 3>navigate this. And that's this the single If somebody were

743
00:45:12.679 --> 00:45:16.199
<v Speaker 3>to ask me, give me, give me Christianity and one word,

744
00:45:17.920 --> 00:45:24.519
<v Speaker 3>what would you say? I said, truth. That's it. If

745
00:45:25.000 --> 00:45:28.440
<v Speaker 3>you are my president, if you are my governor, if

746
00:45:28.519 --> 00:45:33.360
<v Speaker 3>you are my mayor, if you are my school board supervisor,

747
00:45:33.800 --> 00:45:39.199
<v Speaker 3>if you are my neighbor, if you are my parents,

748
00:45:39.559 --> 00:45:44.480
<v Speaker 3>if you are my family, and you believe I should

749
00:45:44.480 --> 00:45:47.800
<v Speaker 3>do a B and C to be a good citizen,

750
00:45:48.039 --> 00:45:51.000
<v Speaker 3>to be a good American, all work together, we're gonna

751
00:45:51.000 --> 00:45:55.320
<v Speaker 3>beat this. It's based on one idea. Is the information

752
00:45:55.559 --> 00:46:00.199
<v Speaker 3>you're given me based on truth or lies? And if

753
00:46:00.199 --> 00:46:05.360
<v Speaker 3>it's a lie, I rejected. I will not live by

754
00:46:05.360 --> 00:46:08.320
<v Speaker 3>a lie because Satan is the father of lies and

755
00:46:08.480 --> 00:46:12.400
<v Speaker 3>Jesus Christ is truth. Period.

756
00:46:14.400 --> 00:46:16.719
<v Speaker 1>I'd say, you look at it the way from exactly

757
00:46:16.760 --> 00:46:20.760
<v Speaker 1>what you're saying is you can you can resist and

758
00:46:20.840 --> 00:46:23.719
<v Speaker 1>be a Christian. You can you can show that you

759
00:46:23.760 --> 00:46:28.760
<v Speaker 1>think about Jesus and the temple, flipping tables righteously, righteously,

760
00:46:30.159 --> 00:46:30.800
<v Speaker 1>and if it's the.

761
00:46:30.800 --> 00:46:33.960
<v Speaker 5>Truth, it's not always God, it's not always what they

762
00:46:34.000 --> 00:46:34.440
<v Speaker 5>want to hear.

763
00:46:34.840 --> 00:46:39.599
<v Speaker 3>Well. I've used that analogy when I've spoken at men's events.

764
00:46:41.519 --> 00:46:45.440
<v Speaker 3>I said, if I if I went into my room,

765
00:46:46.239 --> 00:46:53.920
<v Speaker 3>grab a stick, attached leather frongs to it, came into

766
00:46:53.960 --> 00:46:59.119
<v Speaker 3>your church, started swinging it around to people, turning over

767
00:46:59.199 --> 00:47:08.039
<v Speaker 3>your table with your DVD merchandise and your bookstore, what

768
00:47:08.079 --> 00:47:11.880
<v Speaker 3>would you call that? Because there's a legal turf, or

769
00:47:11.920 --> 00:47:15.760
<v Speaker 3>it's the soul mattery, You're not allowed to do that.

770
00:47:17.000 --> 00:47:20.280
<v Speaker 3>It's destruction. If you are swinging towards someone trying to

771
00:47:20.280 --> 00:47:27.199
<v Speaker 3>harm somebody else's assault, most people would consider that a sin. Yep,

772
00:47:28.840 --> 00:47:35.280
<v Speaker 3>Jesus did that. So we have two choices now, Either

773
00:47:35.400 --> 00:47:38.760
<v Speaker 3>Jesus sinned, which means he's not God, and you and

774
00:47:38.800 --> 00:47:41.920
<v Speaker 3>I are wasting our time on this podcast as we speak.

775
00:47:43.239 --> 00:47:48.519
<v Speaker 3>Or sin isn't always what we have been told it is,

776
00:47:49.280 --> 00:47:51.559
<v Speaker 3>and you better figure that out, because there is such

777
00:47:51.599 --> 00:47:57.800
<v Speaker 3>a thing as rage and anger and violence which is

778
00:47:57.920 --> 00:48:07.400
<v Speaker 3>out of control, undisciplined, inappropriate behavior. But there's another side

779
00:48:07.400 --> 00:48:11.239
<v Speaker 3>to the coin that I love about my rule book

780
00:48:11.320 --> 00:48:13.920
<v Speaker 3>for life, which is the Bible. It literally tells us

781
00:48:14.119 --> 00:48:17.199
<v Speaker 3>how the world got started, where it went wrong, and

782
00:48:17.239 --> 00:48:21.480
<v Speaker 3>how we fix it. It literally exposes the world to those

783
00:48:21.519 --> 00:48:25.920
<v Speaker 3>who seek to understand how it works. And it said

784
00:48:26.000 --> 00:48:33.039
<v Speaker 3>this be angry sin not Oh so there is a

785
00:48:33.239 --> 00:48:40.079
<v Speaker 3>delineation and where does that fall? What category gives us

786
00:48:40.239 --> 00:48:46.280
<v Speaker 3>that permission. There's the most beautiful word given to us

787
00:48:46.320 --> 00:48:52.679
<v Speaker 3>in the Bible. It's called righteous indignation. You are allowed

788
00:48:53.159 --> 00:49:04.199
<v Speaker 3>to fight for righteousness against injustice, against evil. We read

789
00:49:04.280 --> 00:49:07.679
<v Speaker 3>these stories in the Bible and we forget these were real.

790
00:49:08.320 --> 00:49:12.199
<v Speaker 3>David and Goliath, we've read a million times. He killed

791
00:49:12.199 --> 00:49:17.119
<v Speaker 3>a guy, he threw a stroke, and then by the way,

792
00:49:17.280 --> 00:49:22.679
<v Speaker 3>cut his head off, cut his head off. Oh hey, David,

793
00:49:22.760 --> 00:49:27.039
<v Speaker 3>ha ha he ca. Yeah, it's not so fun. When

794
00:49:27.039 --> 00:49:30.400
<v Speaker 3>we've watched Christians in the last ten years have their

795
00:49:30.400 --> 00:49:33.719
<v Speaker 3>heads cut off by Islamic terrorism. It is about as

796
00:49:33.760 --> 00:49:38.239
<v Speaker 3>brutal and evil as it gets when you see what

797
00:49:38.400 --> 00:49:43.800
<v Speaker 3>it really is. It ain't funny, it's not flippant, it's

798
00:49:43.840 --> 00:49:53.920
<v Speaker 3>not trivial. It's pretty raw and rugged and dark. God said,

799
00:49:53.920 --> 00:49:56.000
<v Speaker 3>that's a story I want to tell my guy cut

800
00:49:56.039 --> 00:50:00.719
<v Speaker 3>his head off. I got a story to tell. My

801
00:50:00.840 --> 00:50:03.840
<v Speaker 3>guy who I love had sex with another man's wife

802
00:50:03.960 --> 00:50:07.320
<v Speaker 3>and then killed him. Why did he tell that story?

803
00:50:07.960 --> 00:50:09.719
<v Speaker 3>Don't tell that story. It's not going to make us

804
00:50:09.760 --> 00:50:11.480
<v Speaker 3>look good, he said, no, no, no, I need you to

805
00:50:11.639 --> 00:50:16.880
<v Speaker 3>know what I have to work with when it comes

806
00:50:16.960 --> 00:50:19.519
<v Speaker 3>to redeeming this nation that you screwed up in the

807
00:50:19.559 --> 00:50:24.440
<v Speaker 3>first place. God made the rules, we broke them, and

808
00:50:24.480 --> 00:50:27.159
<v Speaker 3>then he had the audacity to say, don't worry, I'll

809
00:50:27.159 --> 00:50:29.559
<v Speaker 3>fix it for you. I'll make I'll make a way out.

810
00:50:30.039 --> 00:50:31.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm not going to get ready all. I'm going to

811
00:50:32.000 --> 00:50:36.679
<v Speaker 3>find a way for you to maintain this beginning of

812
00:50:37.159 --> 00:50:39.519
<v Speaker 3>what I wanted it to look like, what I wanted

813
00:50:39.519 --> 00:50:41.440
<v Speaker 3>it to be, and I'll do the work for you.

814
00:50:41.519 --> 00:50:43.840
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to punish myself with the punishment that I

815
00:50:44.000 --> 00:50:48.559
<v Speaker 3>created that was for those who fell, those who disobeyed.

816
00:50:48.599 --> 00:50:52.320
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to punish myself with a punishment I created.

817
00:50:54.320 --> 00:50:56.960
<v Speaker 3>There's no love like that in human There's nothing like it.

818
00:50:57.079 --> 00:51:01.039
<v Speaker 3>There's no other equivalent philosophically, there's no equivalent in any other religion.

819
00:51:01.159 --> 00:51:04.920
<v Speaker 3>There's no other equivalent in any other mythology. There's nothing

820
00:51:05.199 --> 00:51:08.000
<v Speaker 3>like it. You know why, because it's true.

821
00:51:10.039 --> 00:51:12.440
<v Speaker 2>Which I just recently read a book and I can't

822
00:51:12.440 --> 00:51:14.239
<v Speaker 2>remember the name of the author, but it was called

823
00:51:14.360 --> 00:51:17.159
<v Speaker 2>More Than a Carpenter and it was produced like in

824
00:51:17.239 --> 00:51:18.239
<v Speaker 2>nineteen seventy.

825
00:51:19.039 --> 00:51:21.559
<v Speaker 3>That said Josh mcdaal, Yeah, such.

826
00:51:21.360 --> 00:51:23.360
<v Speaker 4>A great book, and I loved At.

827
00:51:23.280 --> 00:51:25.400
<v Speaker 2>The end of it, he used an analogy and he

828
00:51:25.440 --> 00:51:27.320
<v Speaker 2>was talking about you know, Christ and stuff, and it

829
00:51:27.440 --> 00:51:29.559
<v Speaker 2>was along the lines of what you were talking about.

830
00:51:29.960 --> 00:51:32.920
<v Speaker 2>And it said, he told a story about this girl.

831
00:51:33.519 --> 00:51:36.280
<v Speaker 2>She got a speeding ticket. So she goes to court

832
00:51:36.559 --> 00:51:40.360
<v Speaker 2>and the judge asked her how she pleaded. She pleaded guilty.

833
00:51:40.599 --> 00:51:43.159
<v Speaker 2>The judge slapped the gavel and charged her a two

834
00:51:43.239 --> 00:51:48.519
<v Speaker 2>hundred dollars fine. And then the judge removed his garments

835
00:51:48.519 --> 00:51:52.840
<v Speaker 2>and come down from the poem and paid for the ticket.

836
00:51:53.920 --> 00:51:56.760
<v Speaker 2>And it said, it turns out that that judge was

837
00:51:56.800 --> 00:51:59.639
<v Speaker 2>the father of that daughter. And it said he used

838
00:51:59.679 --> 00:52:02.960
<v Speaker 2>as an analogy with God. He said, you know, we

839
00:52:02.960 --> 00:52:08.000
<v Speaker 2>were guilty and we had a price to pay, but

840
00:52:08.199 --> 00:52:12.239
<v Speaker 2>our heavenly Father took off his heavenly robe, came down

841
00:52:12.280 --> 00:52:16.440
<v Speaker 2>to earth and paid our fine for us. Because he's

842
00:52:16.480 --> 00:52:19.599
<v Speaker 2>a just God, he has to keep you know, his

843
00:52:19.719 --> 00:52:22.519
<v Speaker 2>name holy and show that he is just and.

844
00:52:22.519 --> 00:52:23.519
<v Speaker 4>Follow the rules.

845
00:52:24.199 --> 00:52:27.599
<v Speaker 2>But he lowered himself and took care of it for us.

846
00:52:27.800 --> 00:52:30.199
<v Speaker 2>I loved that. That was such a beautiful analogy.

847
00:52:30.400 --> 00:52:33.719
<v Speaker 3>It is well, it's it's like I said, I think

848
00:52:33.719 --> 00:52:38.800
<v Speaker 3>we you know, and I don't know exactly everything you

849
00:52:38.840 --> 00:52:41.719
<v Speaker 3>guys talk about on your podcast, but what you prefaced

850
00:52:41.719 --> 00:52:44.039
<v Speaker 3>it with it sounds like you try to go pretty

851
00:52:44.039 --> 00:52:46.599
<v Speaker 3>deep and you try to get to the to the

852
00:52:46.800 --> 00:52:53.639
<v Speaker 3>really essentials and the sophisticated nuances of Christianity, which is difficult.

853
00:52:53.639 --> 00:52:56.199
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it's a long journey and it's a hard journey,

854
00:52:56.239 --> 00:53:00.920
<v Speaker 3>and you can even have disagreements or different interpretations of

855
00:53:00.960 --> 00:53:04.559
<v Speaker 3>certain ideas. That's just the nature of being flawed people

856
00:53:04.599 --> 00:53:10.079
<v Speaker 3>trying to figure out perfection. But you know, Jesus was

857
00:53:10.239 --> 00:53:15.119
<v Speaker 3>man and God, but and the only way he could

858
00:53:15.159 --> 00:53:19.639
<v Speaker 3>pay the price is because he was a human that

859
00:53:19.840 --> 00:53:24.000
<v Speaker 3>was perfect. So that he could be a sacrifice that

860
00:53:24.039 --> 00:53:26.199
<v Speaker 3>was spotless. I mean, that's part of that. But he

861
00:53:26.280 --> 00:53:32.320
<v Speaker 3>was also God. Yeah, and so he willingly gave up

862
00:53:32.400 --> 00:53:35.639
<v Speaker 3>his right to defend himself and to destroy those who

863
00:53:35.639 --> 00:53:38.960
<v Speaker 3>are trying to harm it out of love. But I

864
00:53:39.000 --> 00:53:44.159
<v Speaker 3>think what what I think we forget sometimes is we

865
00:53:44.199 --> 00:53:46.719
<v Speaker 3>look at the humanity of Christ, which we should, and

866
00:53:46.719 --> 00:53:49.199
<v Speaker 3>that he was human, which we need to because it's

867
00:53:49.239 --> 00:53:52.920
<v Speaker 3>the only way this sacrifice worked. But we forget he

868
00:53:52.960 --> 00:53:59.320
<v Speaker 3>was also God, which means when he died. And I'm

869
00:53:59.360 --> 00:54:11.039
<v Speaker 3>not sure how this works. God died, God died what now?

870
00:54:11.400 --> 00:54:14.920
<v Speaker 3>Because we believe in a trinity, God was always there.

871
00:54:15.480 --> 00:54:18.280
<v Speaker 3>But this aspect of God that he used to be

872
00:54:18.400 --> 00:54:23.280
<v Speaker 3>an arm of his interaction with his creation, the Jesus,

873
00:54:23.880 --> 00:54:26.760
<v Speaker 3>who was the only flesh God, the Father, isn't flesh.

874
00:54:26.840 --> 00:54:31.039
<v Speaker 3>She's spirit. The Holy Spirit obviously is a spirit. Here

875
00:54:31.079 --> 00:54:33.239
<v Speaker 3>comes the one guy that had access to it, who

876
00:54:33.400 --> 00:54:37.840
<v Speaker 3>dimensionalized himself so we could see him. Everybody's always can plain, well,

877
00:54:37.880 --> 00:54:41.119
<v Speaker 3>I could just see God, then maybe I believe. Okay,

878
00:54:41.840 --> 00:54:44.559
<v Speaker 3>we'll read the Bible. He showed up. It's the way

879
00:54:44.599 --> 00:54:47.119
<v Speaker 3>you could see of spirit. Is if he's not a spirit,

880
00:54:48.119 --> 00:54:50.639
<v Speaker 3>it's flesh. Now, now you got what he asked for.

881
00:54:51.199 --> 00:54:53.039
<v Speaker 3>But I just when I think about the idea of

882
00:54:53.360 --> 00:54:59.559
<v Speaker 3>the death of God, it's mind boggling. It's like he

883
00:55:00.599 --> 00:55:02.960
<v Speaker 3>and only in the Christian system because of the try

884
00:55:03.039 --> 00:55:13.239
<v Speaker 3>you know, Uh, format could that happen? That that God's

885
00:55:13.320 --> 00:55:20.800
<v Speaker 3>love was so beyond our understanding that he creates the system,

886
00:55:21.119 --> 00:55:24.119
<v Speaker 3>he creates the punishment for breaking the system, and then

887
00:55:24.280 --> 00:55:29.159
<v Speaker 3>he punishes himself for the system he created, and and dies.

888
00:55:29.920 --> 00:55:32.480
<v Speaker 3>I can't I can't matter. I can't put my mind

889
00:55:32.480 --> 00:55:36.559
<v Speaker 3>around that God was dead and then God resurrected God

890
00:55:36.880 --> 00:55:39.199
<v Speaker 3>not man, and man was there too. I get it.

891
00:55:39.840 --> 00:55:42.679
<v Speaker 3>Don't get all weird and legalistic. I'm just making a

892
00:55:42.719 --> 00:55:51.079
<v Speaker 3>point about this, the depth of nuance to this faith

893
00:55:51.119 --> 00:55:55.559
<v Speaker 3>that we've committed our lives to, which is also a

894
00:55:55.639 --> 00:56:00.599
<v Speaker 3>juxtaposition of spirit and and uh and material. Because he

895
00:56:00.639 --> 00:56:06.280
<v Speaker 3>said faith is the substance, material of things hoped for,

896
00:56:06.920 --> 00:56:14.639
<v Speaker 3>immaterial evidence, material of things not seen, immaterial. He gives

897
00:56:14.679 --> 00:56:19.119
<v Speaker 3>us answers to this question that we can't really articulate

898
00:56:20.320 --> 00:56:24.239
<v Speaker 3>that the immaterial and the material work is one. In

899
00:56:24.280 --> 00:56:29.639
<v Speaker 3>the Christian analysis of how humans interact, we have a

900
00:56:29.719 --> 00:56:34.599
<v Speaker 3>spirit and a body, it's no other religion has figured

901
00:56:34.599 --> 00:56:38.239
<v Speaker 3>this out as to what is really going on, and

902
00:56:38.360 --> 00:56:49.559
<v Speaker 3>the sophistication of it, and the the mind boggling means

903
00:56:49.639 --> 00:56:55.679
<v Speaker 3>by which God has revealed himself to us, starting with Jews,

904
00:56:56.199 --> 00:56:59.360
<v Speaker 3>starting with Israel. I'm going to start with the people

905
00:56:59.360 --> 00:57:01.360
<v Speaker 3>that I've chosen, and because they're better than anybody else,

906
00:57:01.400 --> 00:57:03.400
<v Speaker 3>I just wanted to have one people who are going

907
00:57:03.480 --> 00:57:06.679
<v Speaker 3>to be so meticulous about writing down their lineage that

908
00:57:06.719 --> 00:57:10.320
<v Speaker 3>you would have actual records of people who actually existed.

909
00:57:10.320 --> 00:57:14.400
<v Speaker 3>It's not Thor, it's not Zeus, it's not Saturn. It's

910
00:57:14.440 --> 00:57:17.840
<v Speaker 3>a real guy named HYBATHI who'd be got to the

911
00:57:17.920 --> 00:57:20.480
<v Speaker 3>super go and it's like, what are you right now?

912
00:57:20.519 --> 00:57:22.039
<v Speaker 3>That's crazy. I read the Bible once. I don't know

913
00:57:22.039 --> 00:57:23.639
<v Speaker 3>if you guys have probably done this, if you read

914
00:57:23.679 --> 00:57:25.639
<v Speaker 3>through the Bible one year. I remember going that I

915
00:57:25.719 --> 00:57:27.599
<v Speaker 3>did that years ago, saying I'm gonna do that again.

916
00:57:28.360 --> 00:57:29.840
<v Speaker 3>It's a couple years ago, said I'm gonna read through

917
00:57:29.840 --> 00:57:32.199
<v Speaker 3>the whole Bible, and I remember thinking, oh, crap, I'm

918
00:57:32.199 --> 00:57:37.079
<v Speaker 3>going to get into Deuteronomy. Crap, this is going to

919
00:57:37.239 --> 00:57:40.280
<v Speaker 3>kill me. And I remember thinking to myself, but you

920
00:57:40.280 --> 00:57:42.159
<v Speaker 3>know what if that's in the Bible.

921
00:57:42.239 --> 00:57:42.880
<v Speaker 4>It's important.

922
00:57:43.079 --> 00:57:46.400
<v Speaker 3>God wanted it there. I don't know why. I don't

923
00:57:46.400 --> 00:57:48.519
<v Speaker 3>know why, but I'm going to read it. And I

924
00:57:48.639 --> 00:57:51.199
<v Speaker 3>literally would read every guy instead of skimming over it.

925
00:57:51.239 --> 00:57:54.559
<v Speaker 3>I'd read every guy's name, trying the best I could do,

926
00:57:56.960 --> 00:58:04.960
<v Speaker 3>you know. But yeah, let alone that and not having teeth.

927
00:58:05.239 --> 00:58:05.960
<v Speaker 3>But the thing is.

928
00:58:06.320 --> 00:58:07.159
<v Speaker 4>Easy, easy.

929
00:58:07.360 --> 00:58:09.000
<v Speaker 2>They're fake, but they're fake.

930
00:58:09.559 --> 00:58:14.119
<v Speaker 6>But the fact that I had to the fact that

931
00:58:14.159 --> 00:58:15.840
<v Speaker 6>I chose to read because I said, we if God

932
00:58:15.880 --> 00:58:17.760
<v Speaker 6>wrote it down, and then I'm going to give this guy,

933
00:58:18.119 --> 00:58:21.880
<v Speaker 6>this man that I've never met thousands of years, his

934
00:58:22.039 --> 00:58:23.360
<v Speaker 6>dignity by.

935
00:58:23.119 --> 00:58:27.199
<v Speaker 3>Saying his name. I realterally said all this stuff to myself,

936
00:58:29.119 --> 00:58:31.239
<v Speaker 3>and I read it. And when I read it, assuming

937
00:58:31.280 --> 00:58:32.880
<v Speaker 3>that there was a reason it was there, because God

938
00:58:32.920 --> 00:58:38.239
<v Speaker 3>put it there, I began to understand why why was

939
00:58:38.280 --> 00:58:44.440
<v Speaker 3>he this boring and academic? And I realized because he

940
00:58:44.559 --> 00:58:48.679
<v Speaker 3>wanted you to know these were real people. This was

941
00:58:48.719 --> 00:58:52.119
<v Speaker 3>a real guy who really existed, who had this son.

942
00:58:52.639 --> 00:58:54.840
<v Speaker 3>And he was a real guy who had this son.

943
00:58:55.079 --> 00:59:02.039
<v Speaker 3>So we have the documentation, the analytics, the data that

944
00:59:02.119 --> 00:59:05.440
<v Speaker 3>no other religion has to give a through line as

945
00:59:05.440 --> 00:59:07.880
<v Speaker 3>to how God got here and there's a story that

946
00:59:07.920 --> 00:59:12.480
<v Speaker 3>you can watch so that you get what you want. Atheists,

947
00:59:12.920 --> 00:59:19.239
<v Speaker 3>I want proof. What this? Show me another book that

948
00:59:19.400 --> 00:59:22.639
<v Speaker 3>was written that has sixty six different letters from forty

949
00:59:22.880 --> 00:59:26.199
<v Speaker 3>something different guys over fifteen hundred years, that, when put together,

950
00:59:26.280 --> 00:59:28.559
<v Speaker 3>makes one story. Show me any other book that's even

951
00:59:28.599 --> 00:59:30.360
<v Speaker 3>close to that. Show me. Does that make it the

952
00:59:30.400 --> 00:59:35.400
<v Speaker 3>word of God? No? Nope, it makes it so unique

953
00:59:35.480 --> 00:59:37.119
<v Speaker 3>you ought to give it a listen, You ought to

954
00:59:37.119 --> 00:59:41.679
<v Speaker 3>give it a look. See certainly interesting change. The West

955
00:59:42.039 --> 00:59:46.840
<v Speaker 3>created modern science, created universities, created hospitals, created the dignity

956
00:59:46.880 --> 00:59:50.039
<v Speaker 3>of human beings, ended slavery, made women equal to men,

957
00:59:50.199 --> 00:59:52.719
<v Speaker 3>made children to be protected, did things that said that

958
00:59:52.760 --> 00:59:55.679
<v Speaker 3>there's no ethnicity that superior. It got rid of race

959
00:59:55.719 --> 00:59:58.440
<v Speaker 3>and actually said there is no race, the human race.

960
00:59:58.559 --> 01:00:00.960
<v Speaker 3>It's the only religion in human head history that actually

961
01:00:00.960 --> 01:00:03.480
<v Speaker 3>got through the CRT that we're just seeing the nonsense.

962
01:00:03.679 --> 01:00:07.519
<v Speaker 3>The Marxist cancer is destroying America right now because it's Marxism,

963
01:00:07.599 --> 01:00:11.840
<v Speaker 3>and it's atheism, it's and it's demonic cancer of communism.

964
01:00:12.760 --> 01:00:15.519
<v Speaker 3>Well we already figured that out when when when the

965
01:00:15.519 --> 01:00:18.159
<v Speaker 3>Bible said there's no male or female, no bond or free,

966
01:00:18.239 --> 01:00:21.360
<v Speaker 3>no jew or gentile. He already figured out. Ah. Bible

967
01:00:21.360 --> 01:00:24.639
<v Speaker 3>says there's no male or female. See he's non binary, right,

968
01:00:26.119 --> 01:00:29.760
<v Speaker 3>there's no agenda. Right he said, no, no, no, there's male female.

969
01:00:29.840 --> 01:00:33.559
<v Speaker 3>What he said was you no longer identify as that

970
01:00:33.599 --> 01:00:36.239
<v Speaker 3>as the primary source as to who you are. You

971
01:00:36.360 --> 01:00:39.400
<v Speaker 3>honor your maleness, You honor your femaleess. We know that's

972
01:00:39.400 --> 01:00:42.800
<v Speaker 3>the way it's designed because every single LGBTQ person that's

973
01:00:42.840 --> 01:00:45.039
<v Speaker 3>ever exists on the face of the earth came into

974
01:00:45.159 --> 01:00:48.039
<v Speaker 3>existence because on male female had sex. So we know

975
01:00:48.119 --> 01:00:50.159
<v Speaker 3>that must be the way it works, because that's how you,

976
01:00:50.199 --> 01:00:53.760
<v Speaker 3>guys all came into existence. So that's the principle. That's

977
01:00:53.800 --> 01:00:58.159
<v Speaker 3>the foundation that makes humanity work. And God said, love

978
01:00:58.199 --> 01:01:01.639
<v Speaker 3>your femininity and made it unique. Love your masculinity. I

979
01:01:01.679 --> 01:01:04.719
<v Speaker 3>made it unique. Honor it. Come together, be one. But

980
01:01:05.760 --> 01:01:09.039
<v Speaker 3>you are not to be identified by your gender, but

981
01:01:09.119 --> 01:01:12.480
<v Speaker 3>by a child, a living God. There is no bond

982
01:01:12.719 --> 01:01:16.559
<v Speaker 3>or free Oh I see. So there's no class system

983
01:01:16.599 --> 01:01:19.800
<v Speaker 3>in your world. That's right. Rich guys, if you've been rich,

984
01:01:19.920 --> 01:01:21.480
<v Speaker 3>be grateful for it and take care of those who

985
01:01:21.480 --> 01:01:23.679
<v Speaker 3>are poor. Poor guys, do your best to get out

986
01:01:23.719 --> 01:01:25.400
<v Speaker 3>of it. But by the way, you don't get to

987
01:01:25.440 --> 01:01:28.719
<v Speaker 3>complain or covet this guy's stuff. Go live the best

988
01:01:28.800 --> 01:01:32.039
<v Speaker 3>you can because you're no longer identify by your class,

989
01:01:32.039 --> 01:01:34.559
<v Speaker 3>because there is your child, a living God on there's

990
01:01:34.639 --> 01:01:37.880
<v Speaker 3>no true or gentile. You're no longer get to identify

991
01:01:38.360 --> 01:01:42.920
<v Speaker 3>by your culture or by your ethnicity. You are grateful

992
01:01:42.960 --> 01:01:45.960
<v Speaker 3>for it. You say, I'm glad that my people came

993
01:01:45.960 --> 01:01:48.440
<v Speaker 3>from this difficult thing. I never want to forget that story.

994
01:01:48.840 --> 01:01:50.880
<v Speaker 3>Never want to forget that story because it teaches me

995
01:01:50.920 --> 01:01:52.960
<v Speaker 3>how to work through hard things. And I should be

996
01:01:53.000 --> 01:01:55.639
<v Speaker 3>proud of that. And look what I've overcome and whatcome

997
01:01:55.679 --> 01:01:59.400
<v Speaker 3>my people did? Yes, be proud, be proud. You don't

998
01:01:59.440 --> 01:02:02.039
<v Speaker 3>identify is that you're a child in the living God.

999
01:02:02.280 --> 01:02:05.719
<v Speaker 3>You do those three things. Guess what. There is no

1000
01:02:05.840 --> 01:02:10.679
<v Speaker 3>more racism, There is no more sexism, There is no

1001
01:02:10.800 --> 01:02:16.199
<v Speaker 3>more inequality. Will we ever get there? No? No, we're sinners.

1002
01:02:16.519 --> 01:02:20.360
<v Speaker 3>We're pride filled. Number one sin. Pride the only sin

1003
01:02:20.400 --> 01:02:24.880
<v Speaker 3>that matters. Pride, the original sin. Pride. We will sin that.

1004
01:02:24.920 --> 01:02:27.239
<v Speaker 3>God says he hates the most pride. Why all sin

1005
01:02:27.280 --> 01:02:30.079
<v Speaker 3>comes from pride, All sin comes from pride, All sin

1006
01:02:30.360 --> 01:02:35.880
<v Speaker 3>comes from pride. I will be God. Yeah, So that

1007
01:02:36.360 --> 01:02:41.079
<v Speaker 3>is where we're at in America. The problem in America

1008
01:02:42.639 --> 01:02:46.599
<v Speaker 3>churches and I always always differentiate American Christianity from any

1009
01:02:46.639 --> 01:02:50.079
<v Speaker 3>other because, let me tell you something. My brother Christians

1010
01:02:50.079 --> 01:02:55.039
<v Speaker 3>in China aren't wondering if it's difficult because somebody called

1011
01:02:55.079 --> 01:02:59.280
<v Speaker 3>them a name on Facebook. Yeah, that ain't their biggest problem.

1012
01:03:00.320 --> 01:03:03.920
<v Speaker 3>And the Afghanistani Christians that stayed in Afghanistan after Biden

1013
01:03:04.000 --> 01:03:07.400
<v Speaker 3>cowardly bailed out there in the catastrophe, that is everything

1014
01:03:07.440 --> 01:03:10.880
<v Speaker 3>that man touches. They stayed because they said, who's going

1015
01:03:10.960 --> 01:03:14.320
<v Speaker 3>to be amongst my people? Yeah, they knew the cost.

1016
01:03:15.800 --> 01:03:24.559
<v Speaker 3>That's Christian, I mean, that's what it looks like. But

1017
01:03:24.599 --> 01:03:28.960
<v Speaker 3>the problem in American Christianity is that most people that

1018
01:03:29.079 --> 01:03:35.760
<v Speaker 3>go to churches aren't believers. Too many church goers, not

1019
01:03:35.880 --> 01:03:41.119
<v Speaker 3>enough Christians. Because, ay, if you really believe Jesus was God,

1020
01:03:41.159 --> 01:03:48.719
<v Speaker 3>if you really believed God was here, why wouldn't you

1021
01:03:48.719 --> 01:03:54.760
<v Speaker 3>tell people, well, I'm embarrassed. Then you don't get them,

1022
01:03:54.800 --> 01:03:58.440
<v Speaker 3>you don't deserve them. I wonder if you're one of us, well,

1023
01:03:58.440 --> 01:04:02.559
<v Speaker 3>somebody might be offended it. Yeah, you know why they're

1024
01:04:02.559 --> 01:04:07.639
<v Speaker 3>offended because you have exposed their sin, and that offense

1025
01:04:07.800 --> 01:04:11.559
<v Speaker 3>is the Holy Spirit's means to draw them to repentance.

1026
01:04:11.880 --> 01:04:18.400
<v Speaker 3>So for all of you politically correct, woke, progressive deconstructing

1027
01:04:18.599 --> 01:04:25.559
<v Speaker 3>Christian heretics who are loving people and not forcing them

1028
01:04:25.559 --> 01:04:28.480
<v Speaker 3>to deal with the choices in their life, you're loving

1029
01:04:28.519 --> 01:04:33.880
<v Speaker 3>them right to hell, and your lack of wanting them

1030
01:04:33.920 --> 01:04:42.079
<v Speaker 3>to feel their distress is literally eliminating the Holy Spirit's

1031
01:04:42.239 --> 01:04:45.440
<v Speaker 3>access to their soul so they can convict them and

1032
01:04:45.480 --> 01:04:49.000
<v Speaker 3>bring them to repentance. You are going to stand in

1033
01:04:49.000 --> 01:04:51.800
<v Speaker 3>front of God and say, let me tell you the

1034
01:04:51.840 --> 01:04:54.800
<v Speaker 3>things I did in your name, and God's going to say,

1035
01:04:54.840 --> 01:04:57.920
<v Speaker 3>I want to ask you about that? How dare you

1036
01:04:58.320 --> 01:05:02.159
<v Speaker 3>use my name? Go to hell?

1037
01:05:04.360 --> 01:05:05.360
<v Speaker 4>M powerful?

1038
01:05:07.039 --> 01:05:11.199
<v Speaker 1>That's yeah, that was I don't know if you were

1039
01:05:11.280 --> 01:05:13.119
<v Speaker 1>called to be later, I don't know if you're called

1040
01:05:13.119 --> 01:05:15.480
<v Speaker 1>to be a comedian or a preacher, because that was

1041
01:05:15.519 --> 01:05:18.760
<v Speaker 1>spot on. Give me a little chills there by the end.

1042
01:05:19.320 --> 01:05:21.440
<v Speaker 1>But I think the number one thing coming out of that,

1043
01:05:21.519 --> 01:05:23.880
<v Speaker 1>and this is to everybody out there who's actually listening

1044
01:05:23.920 --> 01:05:27.159
<v Speaker 1>to this, what are you going to do about it?

1045
01:05:27.280 --> 01:05:27.400
<v Speaker 3>Like?

1046
01:05:27.760 --> 01:05:29.280
<v Speaker 4>What is all of our roles?

1047
01:05:29.760 --> 01:05:33.119
<v Speaker 1>Everybody needs to look in the mirror and say, am

1048
01:05:33.119 --> 01:05:35.519
<v Speaker 1>I doing what God wants me to? Do pray about it.

1049
01:05:36.280 --> 01:05:39.440
<v Speaker 1>Read the Bible, listen to God. You know so many

1050
01:05:39.440 --> 01:05:43.800
<v Speaker 1>people pray about those things and they they they pray.

1051
01:05:43.880 --> 01:05:46.679
<v Speaker 1>Oh man, I really I just want to give me

1052
01:05:46.679 --> 01:05:48.119
<v Speaker 1>a raise so I can get that new car.

1053
01:05:48.400 --> 01:05:48.760
<v Speaker 5>Give me that.

1054
01:05:48.960 --> 01:05:53.639
<v Speaker 1>No, pray for what God wants in your life, and

1055
01:05:53.679 --> 01:05:58.440
<v Speaker 1>then listen. Most people who pray, most people who pray

1056
01:05:58.719 --> 01:06:01.320
<v Speaker 1>don't take the time to listen either. But in the end,

1057
01:06:01.639 --> 01:06:03.199
<v Speaker 1>when we get through all this and we look at

1058
01:06:03.199 --> 01:06:05.199
<v Speaker 1>the news and we look at how terrible everything is,

1059
01:06:05.800 --> 01:06:07.039
<v Speaker 1>what are you going to do about it?

1060
01:06:09.639 --> 01:06:16.039
<v Speaker 3>I will say this. You obviously will have people that

1061
01:06:16.119 --> 01:06:25.599
<v Speaker 3>will hate you if you bring up their choices in life.

1062
01:06:26.480 --> 01:06:32.000
<v Speaker 3>Of course they will. And by the way, by the way,

1063
01:06:35.119 --> 01:06:36.719
<v Speaker 3>how do you know if you're believe right? I mean,

1064
01:06:37.360 --> 01:06:40.960
<v Speaker 3>because I'll tell you this, my friends, the the days

1065
01:06:41.000 --> 01:06:46.159
<v Speaker 3>of bow your head, close your eyes, say a little prayer,

1066
01:06:47.119 --> 01:06:50.920
<v Speaker 3>raise your hand if you did. But don't worry. Don't worry.

1067
01:06:51.079 --> 01:06:53.840
<v Speaker 3>Everybody's eyes are closed and their heads down so they

1068
01:06:53.880 --> 01:06:58.920
<v Speaker 3>won't see you, because we don't want to barrash it. Yeah,

1069
01:06:59.000 --> 01:07:01.760
<v Speaker 3>what you're about to get your life away with God?

1070
01:07:02.639 --> 01:07:05.320
<v Speaker 3>So when God died for you, When God died for

1071
01:07:05.400 --> 01:07:06.920
<v Speaker 3>you and came back to life so that you could

1072
01:07:06.920 --> 01:07:09.960
<v Speaker 3>have eternal life. And you're about to say thank you

1073
01:07:10.000 --> 01:07:12.280
<v Speaker 3>for that, and I humbly say thank you for that

1074
01:07:12.480 --> 01:07:14.599
<v Speaker 3>in front of a bunch of people who've already done that.

1075
01:07:14.639 --> 01:07:20.280
<v Speaker 3>You're embarrassed, don't accept Christ. Go find Go be a Buddhist,

1076
01:07:21.400 --> 01:07:24.400
<v Speaker 3>go be something else. But if you're embarrassed, you don't

1077
01:07:24.400 --> 01:07:28.760
<v Speaker 3>deserve him. And I can pretty much tell you that

1078
01:07:28.800 --> 01:07:31.119
<v Speaker 3>ain't going to get you saved anyways. The prayer isn't

1079
01:07:31.119 --> 01:07:35.239
<v Speaker 3>the magic. The Bibles constantly replete with what is your fruit? Is?

1080
01:07:35.280 --> 01:07:39.400
<v Speaker 3>This guy has no fruit? How am I supposed to

1081
01:07:39.440 --> 01:07:41.559
<v Speaker 3>assess something that's happened to them? I don't know what

1082
01:07:41.599 --> 01:07:44.039
<v Speaker 3>God does. Maybe he lets everybody on guys, I don't know.

1083
01:07:44.840 --> 01:07:48.239
<v Speaker 3>That's not what I see. That's not what I see.

1084
01:07:48.719 --> 01:07:52.400
<v Speaker 3>I see a God that expects us to stand for things.

1085
01:07:52.719 --> 01:07:55.840
<v Speaker 3>That is his principles. If you think this is true,

1086
01:07:56.079 --> 01:07:59.199
<v Speaker 3>then live like it, prove it. But here's the thing,

1087
01:08:00.199 --> 01:08:03.960
<v Speaker 3>just to give you a little encouragement. Yeah, you'll have

1088
01:08:04.000 --> 01:08:07.639
<v Speaker 3>people that will hate you, that's for sure. Jesus promised that.

1089
01:08:07.679 --> 01:08:11.239
<v Speaker 3>Matter of fact. It's a good checklist. Yeah, I was

1090
01:08:11.280 --> 01:08:13.639
<v Speaker 3>I a jackass to that. Guy, I was and he

1091
01:08:13.679 --> 01:08:18.199
<v Speaker 3>hates me. Yeah, that's on you. You're a jerk. Did

1092
01:08:18.199 --> 01:08:21.680
<v Speaker 3>I speak truth and he hated me? Yeah? Okay, Well

1093
01:08:21.760 --> 01:08:24.520
<v Speaker 3>Jesus said, don't worry. They hate They were hating me,

1094
01:08:24.600 --> 01:08:28.640
<v Speaker 3>not you. You did your job. That's how you know

1095
01:08:28.680 --> 01:08:32.560
<v Speaker 3>you one of mine. They will hate you for speaking truth,

1096
01:08:32.600 --> 01:08:36.279
<v Speaker 3>not for being a jerk. They'll hate you for speaking truth.

1097
01:08:36.800 --> 01:08:39.239
<v Speaker 3>But just to let you know, there will be some

1098
01:08:39.279 --> 01:08:43.680
<v Speaker 3>others out there who will be so grateful that you

1099
01:08:43.840 --> 01:08:46.880
<v Speaker 3>gave them the rules because they don't know what to do,

1100
01:08:47.000 --> 01:08:51.199
<v Speaker 3>especially young men young women growing up in this postmodern,

1101
01:08:55.199 --> 01:08:59.239
<v Speaker 3>post truth generation. What they're really begging for when they're

1102
01:08:59.279 --> 01:09:03.760
<v Speaker 3>out march and for their rights and their equity and everything.

1103
01:09:03.880 --> 01:09:06.359
<v Speaker 3>What they're really saying is, I don't know what's going on.

1104
01:09:06.520 --> 01:09:07.800
<v Speaker 3>I don't know what the truth. I don't know what

1105
01:09:07.840 --> 01:09:10.479
<v Speaker 3>I'm supposed to do. How do I live my life?

1106
01:09:10.920 --> 01:09:13.239
<v Speaker 3>What is the meaning of all of this? That's what

1107
01:09:13.279 --> 01:09:17.119
<v Speaker 3>they're asking for, the lost and so some of them,

1108
01:09:17.239 --> 01:09:19.119
<v Speaker 3>when you speak these truths, are going to say, tell

1109
01:09:19.159 --> 01:09:25.239
<v Speaker 3>me more, show me how to come home.

1110
01:09:28.039 --> 01:09:33.359
<v Speaker 2>Brad, this has been a really a riveting conversation. I

1111
01:09:33.399 --> 01:09:36.000
<v Speaker 2>really appreciate you taking the time to talk to us,

1112
01:09:36.039 --> 01:09:39.239
<v Speaker 2>and this has just been which I mean, I was

1113
01:09:39.239 --> 01:09:42.920
<v Speaker 2>already looking forward to this. I love your stuff, but

1114
01:09:43.079 --> 01:09:46.760
<v Speaker 2>this was even better than I was thinking, and I

1115
01:09:46.800 --> 01:09:47.800
<v Speaker 2>really appreciate it.

1116
01:09:48.199 --> 01:09:49.000
<v Speaker 1>Above and beyond.

1117
01:09:49.880 --> 01:09:52.920
<v Speaker 3>Well, thank you. But you know what, We're all in

1118
01:09:52.960 --> 01:09:57.359
<v Speaker 3>the same boat. We're all a body. Yeah, and we

1119
01:09:57.439 --> 01:10:00.920
<v Speaker 3>all have a piece of the puzzle. God told me

1120
01:10:01.079 --> 01:10:02.680
<v Speaker 3>many years ago, he said, I'm going to have you

1121
01:10:02.720 --> 01:10:04.720
<v Speaker 3>speak to the church. I'm a prophet to the church.

1122
01:10:04.760 --> 01:10:07.079
<v Speaker 3>That's what he told me. I was not signing up

1123
01:10:07.079 --> 01:10:11.439
<v Speaker 3>for that. Guys, I give you that, I give you

1124
01:10:11.479 --> 01:10:15.199
<v Speaker 3>that word. And it was years ago. I was embarrassed

1125
01:10:15.239 --> 01:10:18.840
<v Speaker 3>to say that because it sounded so ostentatious and absurd

1126
01:10:18.880 --> 01:10:22.520
<v Speaker 3>and egotism. It was embarrassing. And finally I realized, I'm

1127
01:10:22.520 --> 01:10:27.079
<v Speaker 3>not allowed to call what God has anointed anything less

1128
01:10:27.119 --> 01:10:29.199
<v Speaker 3>than what He's decided it is. So when if I

1129
01:10:29.239 --> 01:10:32.199
<v Speaker 3>say I'm a prophet's church, not because I'm thinking I'm

1130
01:10:31.520 --> 01:10:35.279
<v Speaker 3>amazing guy, it's simply the title God gave me. Like

1131
01:10:35.359 --> 01:10:37.840
<v Speaker 3>yours is whatever yours. If you're a pastor is, you're

1132
01:10:37.920 --> 01:10:41.319
<v Speaker 3>calling just what it is that he said, They'll be

1133
01:10:41.399 --> 01:10:45.039
<v Speaker 3>pastors and prophets and teachers and black people. So anyways,

1134
01:10:45.680 --> 01:10:49.640
<v Speaker 3>I'm not an evangelist. I care about the loss, but

1135
01:10:49.680 --> 01:10:51.760
<v Speaker 3>it's not my call. My call is to the church

1136
01:10:52.399 --> 01:10:54.800
<v Speaker 3>to let him know. We need real Christians that are

1137
01:10:54.800 --> 01:10:57.920
<v Speaker 3>all in. There's no more time for games. Lukewarm makes

1138
01:10:57.960 --> 01:11:05.359
<v Speaker 3>God puke, but hot, hot, committed Christianity has a shot

1139
01:11:05.800 --> 01:11:08.319
<v Speaker 3>of a third grade awakening in this nation. And until

1140
01:11:08.359 --> 01:11:11.720
<v Speaker 3>I'm dead, I'm gonna believe for that. And if you

1141
01:11:11.720 --> 01:11:14.359
<v Speaker 3>guys want to come alongside and assist me, we got

1142
01:11:14.399 --> 01:11:18.800
<v Speaker 3>each other's back Listen. God wins every time.

1143
01:11:19.199 --> 01:11:20.560
<v Speaker 4>Yes, amen, every time.

1144
01:11:21.199 --> 01:11:24.039
<v Speaker 2>Well, Brad, before we close out, you want to give

<v Speaker 3>on Facebook. And then I think I'm on an other platform,

1152
01:11:46.920 --> 01:11:50.760
<v Speaker 3>you know, a podcast platform for later, but it's always archives,

<v Speaker 3>when yours when this airs, but if it's soon, this Monday,

1155
01:11:59.479 --> 01:12:06.920
<v Speaker 3>I'm actually my interviews with NBA Hall of Famer John Stockton. Yeah,

1156
01:12:07.239 --> 01:12:10.199
<v Speaker 3>so that's who my interviews with about mask mandates and

1157
01:12:10.279 --> 01:12:12.720
<v Speaker 3>vaccine mandates because he stood up against that and he

1158
01:12:12.840 --> 01:12:16.079
<v Speaker 3>lost his season tickets to Gonzaga because he wouldn't wear

1159
01:12:16.079 --> 01:12:16.560
<v Speaker 3>his stuff.

1160
01:12:16.720 --> 01:12:19.119
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, sure wasn't you Sure it wasn't because of

1161
01:12:19.159 --> 01:12:19.920
<v Speaker 1>them shorts he was.

1162
01:12:19.920 --> 01:12:25.680
<v Speaker 3>Wearing right exactly. But anyways, God is opening up doors

1163
01:12:25.680 --> 01:12:28.000
<v Speaker 3>for me in that regard. So if this is of

1164
01:12:28.079 --> 01:12:29.720
<v Speaker 3>interest to you guys of what I'm doing, what I

1165
01:12:29.760 --> 01:12:32.199
<v Speaker 3>stand for, it's not what they expect. They think it's

1166
01:12:32.239 --> 01:12:33.800
<v Speaker 3>gonna be funny because they think of me as the

1167
01:12:33.800 --> 01:12:36.399
<v Speaker 3>comic that's what they see. But God said to me,

1168
01:12:36.560 --> 01:12:40.199
<v Speaker 3>that's just your delivery system. That's just your delivery. So

1169
01:12:40.239 --> 01:12:42.039
<v Speaker 3>that's just the flavor it comes in. But you have

1170
01:12:42.079 --> 01:12:43.920
<v Speaker 3>a bigger thing to say. So that's where I'm at.

1171
01:12:44.159 --> 01:12:47.520
<v Speaker 3>Go to Bradstein dot com to find touring and if

1172

01:12:50.239 --> 01:12:52.079
