00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,200
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Three Stories version of The Todd Herman Show.

2
00:00:03,399 --> 00:00:08,000
Story number one Tucker and the Dictator of Iran. Story

3
00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:12,199
number two, a father gives some advice on abuse proofing

4
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:16,960
your kids. Will it work? And story number three a

5
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:20,920
key difference between Christianity and Islam, at least if you

6
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:25,600
expect to believe this certain preacher of Islam. We talk

7
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:28,920
about this with the help of Bisible at gobisible dot

8
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:31,120
com and with God Almighty.

00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 2: The Todd Herman Show is one hundred percent disapproved by

10
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:45,280
big pharma technocrats and tyrant's everywhere from the high mountains

11
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:53,320
of Free America. Here's the Emerald City exime Todd Herman.

12
00:00:59,479 --> 00:01:02,399
Speaker 1: Today is the day the Lord has made in These

13
00:01:02,439 --> 00:01:05,200
are the times to which God has decided we shall live.

14
00:01:05,239 --> 00:01:09,439
And Tucker Carlson done went and did it again. If

15
00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,519
you're one of the people who defended Tucker when he

16
00:01:12,719 --> 00:01:15,519
was when he flew to Russia to interview Vladimir Putin,

17
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,120
I like to ask you if you've had an equal

18
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,319
defense of him going and interviewing the dictator of Iran.

19
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,359
Now there are differences, for sure. Iran is one of

20
00:01:25,359 --> 00:01:28,959
the top sponsors of terrorism in the world. The Iranian

21
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:32,239
government has promised to rid the world of Jewish people

22
00:01:32,599 --> 00:01:34,920
and then move on to ridding the world of Americans

23
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,519
the big Satan, starting with the Little Satan. They call

24
00:01:37,599 --> 00:01:39,599
us the big Satan. That's at least what we're told.

25
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:43,719
And I watch Memory TV. I hope you do it

26
00:01:43,879 --> 00:01:47,599
tracks Middle East media. I've seen what children in Iran

27
00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,959
are taught and in Hamas territories are taught, and I've

28
00:01:49,959 --> 00:01:52,239
seen them be taught to be terrorists, and I've seen

29
00:01:52,239 --> 00:01:55,319
them being taught openly to hate Jewish people, to believe

30
00:01:55,359 --> 00:01:58,799
that there are literal animals. It's very difficult to watch

31
00:01:58,879 --> 00:02:02,400
and it's very real. The question I have for people

32
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,840
who are upset that Tucker Carlson agreed to have this

33
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,879
conversation is why did you not get upset that he

34
00:02:07,879 --> 00:02:10,919
had it with Putin? We were told that Putin's are enemy. Well,

35
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,719
I don't know that he is. I was upset by

36
00:02:14,719 --> 00:02:18,599
either of these because I don't see Tucker as a policymaker.

37
00:02:19,439 --> 00:02:23,639
I don't see Tucker Carlson as president. I see Tucker

38
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,680
Carlson as an opinion journalist. And I see Tucker Carlson

39
00:02:27,879 --> 00:02:30,400
with a program that has one of the biggest footprints

40
00:02:30,439 --> 00:02:33,360
in so called alternative media, which is actually much more mainstream.

41
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,840
Now that's said, I have friends of mine who probably

42
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,439
probably have a real problem with this, and I should

43
00:02:40,439 --> 00:02:42,080
ask him. One of my friends went to war in

44
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,080
the Middle East. He has employed three separate times in

45
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,680
the Middle East as a medic attached to the seal teams.

46
00:02:47,719 --> 00:02:51,199
He fought a battle in literal Babylon. Of course, he

47
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:54,159
lost brothers there, and yeah, in a way, I think

48
00:02:54,199 --> 00:02:57,639
it changed him, and in a big way, I think

49
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,840
it propelled him to be the man God has always

50
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,759
designed him to be. When he came back to America,

51
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,360
he was a physician's assistant. He helped his wife live

52
00:03:05,479 --> 00:03:08,000
twenty years beyond where she was supposed to live while

53
00:03:08,039 --> 00:03:10,080
she had cancer. He did this through the towns God

54
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,599
gave him. He also found that a company to honor

55
00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:16,400
fallen seals. It's called bone Frog, and they make coffee.

56
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,000
Tim shows a mentor who started Seattle's Best Coffee with

57
00:03:20,319 --> 00:03:22,639
such good coffee that Starbucks was forced to buy them

58
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:24,879
to get them out of the way. It's still better coffee.

59
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,680
Dave mentors the teams. He even makes some of the roasts.

60
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,439
And yes, bone Frog itself is the sign of a

61
00:03:30,479 --> 00:03:33,599
fallen seal that insignia ify begs his God country team.

When you purchase it, you get ten percent of the

proceeds go to the Navy Seal Foundation. So do this.

64
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,360
Try the coffee. If it sucks, spit it out of

65
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:43,759
your mouth, joke about it, make fun of Tim. Just

66
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,400
don't do it in person, because then he will un

00:03:45,439 --> 00:03:48,599

73
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,280
He's a commentating journalist. He decided to have the Dictator

74
00:04:09,319 --> 00:04:11,960
of Iran on. One of the big criticisms of him

75
00:04:12,039 --> 00:04:15,039
had to do with the comparison between he questioning the

76
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,079
Dictator of Iran and Ted Cruz, and we'll talk about that.

77
00:04:18,879 --> 00:04:22,959
Tucker asked if nuclear the nuclear program is something that

78
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,759
Iran would be willing to give up an exchange for peace.

79
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:28,000
Speaker 3: Would you be willing to give up the nuclear program

80
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:29,120
in exchange for peace.

81
00:04:31,879 --> 00:04:35,120
Speaker 4: I would like to tell you what has happened. And

82
00:04:35,439 --> 00:04:42,519
it was Natania who, since nineteen eighty four has created

83
00:04:42,639 --> 00:04:49,360
this false mentality that Iran seeks a nuclear bomb, and

84
00:04:49,399 --> 00:04:54,720
it has insinuated that Iran is trying to develop a

85
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,680
nuclear bomb in the past, and it has put it

86
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:04,120
in the minds of every US president since then and

87
00:05:04,199 --> 00:05:07,439
to make them believe that we would like to have

88
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,040
a nuclear bomb. But the truth is that we have

89
00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:15,519
never been after developing a nuclear bomb, not in the past,

90
00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:23,120
not presently or in the future. Because this is wrong,

91
00:05:23,439 --> 00:05:29,560
and this is in contrast to the religious decree or

92
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,240
the fat Law, which has been issued by His Eminence,

93
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:37,199
the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, that

94
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:41,560
so it is religiously forbidden for us to go after

95
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,480
a nuclear bomb.

96
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 1: Never heard that of you. Now, I've heard our Fran

97
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,519
and some of their operatives saying we're going to destroy

98
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,000
the West. I've heard them saying that they're going to

99
00:05:56,079 --> 00:05:59,319
destroy the little Satan and the big Satan that's Israel.

100
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,600
And I don't know how you do that with conventional forces.

101
00:06:02,639 --> 00:06:06,959
Maybe it's through other means. Maybe it's through means of terrorism,

102
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:13,120
but I've never heard that. So Tucker's job is to

103
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,639
bring us things we've never heard. And I can testify

104
00:06:15,639 --> 00:06:19,040
to this not because I know Tucker. I don't, but

105
00:06:19,199 --> 00:06:21,920
because I know what it's like to leave a constrain

106
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:26,319
media environment and to be unconstrained. I know the instincts

107
00:06:26,319 --> 00:06:30,240
that follow. When I worked in morning radio and Seattle

108
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,839
and I was told, you cannot say the election was stolen.

109
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:36,680
You cannot question the sanctity, not the sanctity. You can't

110
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,560
even suggest it was stolen. I got away with saying

111
00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,120
it was rig but I'd already said I was going

112
00:06:41,199 --> 00:06:43,480
to quit the second they said you can't stay stolen,

113
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:47,560
I say stolen. I resigned, and they gave me a

114
00:06:47,639 --> 00:06:52,279
very dignified exit, super dignified. I have nothing disparaging to

115
00:06:52,319 --> 00:06:54,600
say about them at all, but I know that once

116
00:06:54,639 --> 00:06:57,759
those shackles came off, I really enjoyed being able to

117
00:06:57,759 --> 00:07:01,240
say whatever I wanted to about the elections, and I

118
00:07:01,399 --> 00:07:04,079
liked examining them. I know what it's like to have

119
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,839
the shackles taken off, and Tucker Crosson had shackles at

120
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:08,639
Fox News. There were things he wasn't supposed to talk

121
00:07:08,639 --> 00:07:11,399
about and the expressions he wasn't supposed to make, so

122
00:07:11,439 --> 00:07:14,720
you can kind of get excited about doing this. Tucker's

123
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,560
also in a position to bring us ability to think

124
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,759
a little bit more about this. Do you believe the

125
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,399
dictator of Ourran? I mean you can go look at

126
00:07:22,399 --> 00:07:24,879
memory TV like I mentioned, and show yourself videos of

127
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,040
them promising to take out the West. You can go

128
00:07:27,079 --> 00:07:29,399
look at their threats against us, and you can make

129
00:07:29,399 --> 00:07:32,600
a determination. You could listen to Mark or Ruby who says, no, wait, wait, wait,

130
00:07:32,639 --> 00:07:35,319
wait wait. If this is just for energy, why did

131
00:07:35,399 --> 00:07:38,000
they need the uranium refined up to this point? That's

132
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:39,920
not for energy. No one needs it for energy. This

133
00:07:39,959 --> 00:07:42,800
is weapons grade uranium. Why do they need weapons grade uranium?

134
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:47,000
Why did they spend money that Barack Obama gave them

135
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,199
to arm people to attack our troops in Syria? If

136
00:07:49,199 --> 00:07:51,160
they're not interested in war with us, why were they

137
00:07:51,199 --> 00:07:53,240
funding a war with us? Why did they fund Hamas?

138
00:07:54,399 --> 00:07:56,639
But it allows us to have this debate. Tucker Crossing

139
00:07:56,759 --> 00:08:00,040
does us a favor when he goes and asks the

140
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,519
dictator of Iran, Hey, would you guys, have you ever

141
00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:06,079
tried to say, unlive President Trump.

142
00:08:05,959 --> 00:08:10,279
Speaker 3: Has run ever backed an assassination attempt against Donald Trump.

143
00:08:11,839 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 4: This is actually what Natania who is trying to insinuate

144
00:08:16,839 --> 00:08:21,279
and to make your people or the president of your

145
00:08:21,519 --> 00:08:25,360
country to believe. But this is wrong because Natanio, as

146
00:08:25,399 --> 00:08:28,399
I said, has its own agenda. It wants to drag

147
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,480
the US into forever wars, as I said, and to

148
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:37,720
bring you more insecurity, instability, and unrest to the whole region.

149
00:08:38,519 --> 00:08:42,840
Speaker 3: There are a number, some large number of Iranian nationals

150
00:08:42,919 --> 00:08:47,120
living in the United States. Some have said they are

151
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:53,000
quote sleeper cells, they are terrorists who are acting at

152
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:57,399
the command of your government. Would you right now make

153
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,720
a statement to Iranian citizens living in the United States

154
00:09:01,039 --> 00:09:03,080
not to commit acts of violence in the United States.

155
00:09:03,279 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: See now, Tucker's been it's been said that Tucker didn't

156
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,360
ask tough questions. One of the criticisms has been comparing

157
00:09:09,399 --> 00:09:13,279
Tucker Carlson talking with this guy versus talking to Ted Cruz.

158
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,320
So just again, I don't know Tucker, but I know

159
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,639
a little bit about media, and he just hangs up.

160
00:09:21,399 --> 00:09:25,440
I mean, he just says lying American and hangs up.

161
00:09:26,159 --> 00:09:29,320
He is good for him, so he can get his

162
00:09:29,399 --> 00:09:32,519
spin and perhaps his utter lies across. That's good for him.

163
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:36,679
I hope he's not giving it's just sleeper cells. I

164
00:09:36,799 --> 00:09:40,000
really hope he's not, because he might be. That's a

165
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,480
risk we take in a transparent society. That's a risk

166
00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,759
we take as a people who actually believes the First

167
00:09:47,759 --> 00:09:51,720
Amendment protects a journalist, even an opinion journalist like Tucker

168
00:09:52,919 --> 00:09:56,480
in having interviews like this. Now, Ted Cruz isn't going

169
00:09:56,519 --> 00:09:59,320
to walk out of the interview. He's not going to

170
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,840
hang up in Tucker his face. He can't because Ted

171
00:10:02,919 --> 00:10:08,399
Cruz needs Tucker Carlson, and Tucker Carlson knows this. But

172
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,320
it's a great question. Are there sleeper cells in America?

173
00:10:12,759 --> 00:10:15,600
Now I've been on the record. There have to be.

174
00:10:16,879 --> 00:10:21,440
There have to be. The Iranians are not stupid human beings.

175
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:25,799
God gave them intelligence as well. We had an open border,

176
00:10:26,879 --> 00:10:32,440
wide open for four years. We met people ice encountered

177
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,000
people at the border who were on the terrorist watch list.

178
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,240
Iran and their leaders would have to be blanketly, blanketly

179
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,960
stupid to not take advantage of this. So are there

180
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,960
Iranian sleeper cells in America?

181
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:52,279
Speaker 4: These telling me it's the first time I'm hearing them

182
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,960
from you or from anybody you know. The Iranians are

183
00:10:56,039 --> 00:10:59,480
known for their knowledge, for their science, for their charactersy

184
00:11:00,159 --> 00:11:05,519
being civilized. Have you seen otherwise from them? Any other

185
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,720
kind of behavior from them or any violence behavior? Has

186
00:11:09,799 --> 00:11:14,279
anybody ever seen anything from them? As I said, this

187
00:11:14,399 --> 00:11:18,840
is what Israel is trying to put into your minds.

188
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:22,799
They are propagating that Iranians might be capable of doing

189
00:11:22,919 --> 00:11:27,519
a thing. But this is totally untruth because by nature

190
00:11:27,639 --> 00:11:32,960
Iranians are pro keyth and tranquility, and they're trying to

191
00:11:34,159 --> 00:11:41,840
actually make to somehow impact the minds of the decision

192
00:11:41,919 --> 00:11:45,440
makers and the people of the United States and to

193
00:11:45,639 --> 00:11:51,799
secure them into getting involved in a war in my region.

194
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:53,919
Speaker 1: All of us are broken. All of us are broken

195
00:11:53,919 --> 00:11:57,799
by sin problems. I don't think I don't think most

196
00:11:57,799 --> 00:12:02,080
of us are innately peace seeking because we're broken. We're

197
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:05,320
given the falling into discord and disagreements and arguments. I

198
00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,399
don't think of're rating people any different. But to answer

199
00:12:07,399 --> 00:12:12,480
that man's questions, yeah, I've watched the early morning dawn

200
00:12:12,879 --> 00:12:16,399
un a livings of women because they stepped outside their

201
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:22,519
houses without without men or boys following them. That doesn't

202
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:27,639
seem horribly peaceful to me. So Tucker Carlson made a decision,

203
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,559
and I think it was a good one. He went

204
00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:33,360
and had the conversation. He asks, what would happen if

205
00:12:33,399 --> 00:12:36,679
war broke out with Iran? Would they receive help from

206
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:37,840
Russia and China?

207
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:43,000
Speaker 4: We have always put our trust in God, and in

208
00:12:43,039 --> 00:12:48,080
God we trust, and we are capable enough to defend

209
00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:52,159
ourselves into assents on our own two feet, and to

210
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:56,279
defend our country, our territorial so effectively.

211
00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:00,919
Speaker 1: It's a non answer. If you defended Arker Karlson for

212
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:04,320
having a conversation with Vladimir Putin, why would you not

213
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,960
defend them for having this conversation. We live in an

214
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:11,519
era where we've learned there's very little we can trust

215
00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:14,039
that comes out of the mouths of many, many government

216
00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:18,399
leaders in the United States. Is it different with the

217
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:22,720
dictators of Iran? Is it different? We can judge them

218
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:24,799
by their fruits, and this is what we should do.

219
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,960
What are the fruits of Iran since the Islamic takeover?

220
00:13:29,039 --> 00:13:31,240
What did Iran look like before? What was the state

221
00:13:31,279 --> 00:13:33,480
of human rights? What were the state of women's rights?

222
00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:37,600
What were the state of the economy, the balance of power,

223
00:13:37,639 --> 00:13:41,279
the balance of assets. What's happening in our states. Let's

224
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,879
use God's wisdom mat our own. Let's judge them by

225
00:13:43,919 --> 00:13:49,519
their fruits. Story number two. A father gave some advice.

226
00:13:49,759 --> 00:13:54,399
He contends, will abuse prove your children? Do you believe that?

227
00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,320
Do you believe it's our job to abuse po for kids,

228
00:13:59,399 --> 00:14:02,600
to make them unable to be abused? I think it's

229
00:14:02,639 --> 00:14:05,519
our job to give them the mental tools to protect themselves.

230
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:10,399
But more importantly, the physical tools are probably the spiritual tools. YEP.

231
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,399
I want my daughter to be able to look out

232
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,759
and see physical threats. In fact, when she was getting

233
00:14:14,759 --> 00:14:17,799
ready to go to college, I talked her into letting

234
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,559
me take her on an op SEC test run or two.

235
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,919
We went to downtown and I walked her through first

236
00:14:24,919 --> 00:14:27,600
on her own. What do you see? And then we

237
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,159
would continue to walk and I said, here's what I see.

238
00:14:30,639 --> 00:14:32,960
Look into that alley. Why are those people all stacked

239
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,399
up into that alley? There's nothing back there, there's no doors,

240
00:14:35,399 --> 00:14:38,600
there's no food. What are they doing? Why are they there? Oh?

241
00:14:38,639 --> 00:14:40,879
I didn't notice that, I did. Why do you think

242
00:14:40,879 --> 00:14:43,080
they're there? I don't know. Why are they congregating? There

243
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,200
isn't there a place around the corner where they give

244
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,679
out needles. Oh, that's right, that's where they give people

245
00:14:48,679 --> 00:14:50,360
the heroin needles. Right, are those people who want to

246
00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:54,240
spend time with no walking down the street. I said,

247
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:56,600
there's a man coming up behind us. I'm with you

248
00:14:56,679 --> 00:14:58,399
right now, so I don't think he's going to do anything,

249
00:14:58,399 --> 00:15:00,480
And maybe he's just an ordinary man. If you were

250
00:15:00,519 --> 00:15:02,840
by yourself, how could you protect yourself from being taken

251
00:15:02,879 --> 00:15:06,120
by behind? From behind? And I showed her here's a

252
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,639
lamp post. It's a great, big, tall, thick lamp post.

253
00:15:08,679 --> 00:15:11,159
He can't come at you, but he could reach around you,

254
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,399
grab your neck. What about putting your back up against

255
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,919
that wall? Well that's not very well lit. What this

256
00:15:16,039 --> 00:15:16,759
but this one?

257
00:15:16,799 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 4: Though?

258
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: So I took her through that physical run, because we're

259
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,120
to do that with our kids. A parent decided. A

260
00:15:24,159 --> 00:15:27,080
father decided that he wanted to give some advice on

261
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,960
how to abuse proof your children. I'll play this for

262
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,200
you in new seconds and respond, and I'd be curious

263
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,519
to see what you think about this. We also have

264
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:41,559
to abuse proof our retirements, our savings accounts, our kids'

265
00:15:41,559 --> 00:15:45,600
college funds against a super voltile economy. Good God, if

266
00:15:45,639 --> 00:15:48,039
we fall into war with Iran, I don't know what

267
00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,759
becomes of our economy. We're halfway through the year, and

268
00:15:50,799 --> 00:15:52,960
my friend Zach Abraham looks at this a little bit

269
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,720
like a sports team. How is our coach doing or

270
00:15:55,759 --> 00:15:58,879
your coach doing with your retirement assets this halfway point

271
00:15:58,919 --> 00:16:01,480
through the year. Zach giving a free live webinar coming

He's going to go through how this nation has done

275
00:16:10,039 --> 00:16:13,279
halfway through in the economy, what this volatility's done to

00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,519
retirement accounts. He's going to give a perspective on the

277
00:16:15,559 --> 00:16:17,720
second half of twenty twenty five, and he's going to

286
00:16:44,279 --> 00:16:47,120
five two. Here's a father with some advice on how

287
00:16:47,159 --> 00:16:50,840
to abuse proof kids. Not retirement accounts, but kids number one.

288
00:16:50,919 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 5: And I cannot stress how important this one is. I

289
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:58,159
have raised him to not be blindly obedient to me.

290
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,639
I do something he doesn't like, he tells me. I

291
00:17:01,679 --> 00:17:02,679
still don't listen to him.

292
00:17:02,759 --> 00:17:03,399
Speaker 1: He tells my.

293
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,559
Speaker 5: Wife if there is a boundary put in place for

294
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,880
his well being or safety. When he asked me why

295
00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:10,680
that is in place, I explained it to him. I

296
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,039
do not say because I said so, because I'm the adult,

297
00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:14,160
because you have to listen to me.

298
00:17:14,319 --> 00:17:14,759
Speaker 1: None of that.

299
00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:18,880
Speaker 5: Kids who are trained to not question authority are easy targets.

300
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,599
Thing two. We do not punish. We do not shame

301
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:25,279
for misbehavior or mistakes. Research is clear on this punishment

302
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:29,200
is ineffective discipline to begin with, and threat of you

303
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:30,640
know your parents are going to be mad at you,

304
00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,119
They're going to get you in trouble are one of

305
00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:37,200
the tools that abusers use to keep kids quiet. When

306
00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,880
my kids teachers threatened to call home, He's like, please do.

307
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,240
They'll help us navigate the situation because he's not afraid

308
00:17:43,279 --> 00:17:45,279
of us. He is not afraid of us finding out

309
00:17:45,279 --> 00:17:48,039
about anything that happens to him. Think number three, we

310
00:17:48,079 --> 00:17:50,440
talk about bodies. Bodies are not taboo. You want to

311
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:52,119
tell us something about your body, we are not going

312
00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:54,119
to make you feel weird about that. Now if you

313
00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:56,119
find yourself saying right now, like I thought, these tips

314
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:57,319
are going to be like don't let my kids be

315
00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:59,519
alone with adults, and don't let them go to sleepovers

316
00:17:59,519 --> 00:18:02,279
and all this other stuff, and what you've just provided us,

317
00:18:02,319 --> 00:18:05,880
John is just general parenting advice. Yes, the greatest shield

318
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,480
against abuse is the way that you parent them every day.

319
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:10,319
And I just wish more parents knew that.

320
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,400
Speaker 1: So it start at the very very beginning here he

321
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:17,079
teaches his kid to question him and his wife separately,

322
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,720
to separate them. That's a great way to give your

323
00:18:19,799 --> 00:18:22,680
kid borderline personality disorder by splitting the parents. It's one

324
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,720
of the things his kid develop as a technique of control. Wow,

325
00:18:25,759 --> 00:18:27,559
if I don't like something my dad did, I can

326
00:18:27,599 --> 00:18:29,519
go to my mom and maybe she'll change it. And

327
00:18:29,559 --> 00:18:31,759
the kid gets in the position that they're running the household.

328
00:18:31,799 --> 00:18:34,240
And guess what does that does to them? It helps

329
00:18:34,279 --> 00:18:38,839
them feel uneasy Because kids require mentally and spiritually a

330
00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:44,039
strong father and a support of a nurturing mother. So

331
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,839
great advice. If you want to split your kid up

332
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,640
borderline personality like you and your wife need to be

333
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,200
a unit. And if your kid tries this splitting, your

334
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,200
wife would say no. If dad said it, that's the rule.

335
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:57,759
If mom said it, that's the rule. And then later

336
00:18:57,839 --> 00:19:03,720
you and her in private can have a convererce about this. Okay. Secondly,

337
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,079
sometimes it's healthy to say to your child because I

338
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,839
am the parent. And one of the ways you can

339
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,440
do this is say, look, I respond to God. I

340
00:19:13,519 --> 00:19:17,319
take my orders from God Almighty. I don't question God.

341
00:19:17,799 --> 00:19:19,920
This is what it says in the Bible. I am

342
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:21,759
your parent. My job is to raise you in a

343
00:19:21,759 --> 00:19:25,160
godly way. I'm going to do that. We love you,

344
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:29,039
we know you. We're here for your concerns, and if

345
00:19:29,079 --> 00:19:32,000
anyone ever tells you to keep a secret from us,

346
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,640
they don't have your best interest at heart. If anyone

347
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:36,920
ever touches you in a way that makes you feel uncomfortable,

348
00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,160
you will never be in trouble for telling us. In fact,

349
00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:42,240
you'll be brave. If an adult is threatening you are

350
00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:45,559
taking you aside and whispering secrets in your ears, you

351
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,240
come and tell us because we are the ones who

352
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,400
God has entrusted to care for you. I think that

353
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,240
is a whole better series of ways to keep your

354
00:19:54,319 --> 00:19:59,599
kids from being abused. Story number three. Is there anything

355
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:03,079
in the way you live that would indicate to people

356
00:20:03,079 --> 00:20:07,319
that you belong to Jesus Christ. That's a really good question.

357
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:12,240
Is there anything in the way you live that would

358
00:20:12,279 --> 00:20:15,680
cause someone who observes you to say you belong to

359
00:20:15,799 --> 00:20:19,799
Jesus Christ. Let's look at this from a maybe simpler,

360
00:20:20,079 --> 00:20:24,359
more worldly perspective. Let's let's start here. Is there anything

361
00:20:24,599 --> 00:20:28,960
in your daily behaviors that it would indicate to people

362
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,160
that you speak English? I mean, if you go somewhere

363
00:20:32,319 --> 00:20:35,160
and you're walking around and you're silent, no one's going

364
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,880
to know that you speak English. They can guess looks

365
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,400
like an American to me, maybe Canadian. And then you

366
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,160
open your mouth and you speak English, and people say

367
00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,680
that person speaks English. Maybe you have a second or

368
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,960
third language. Is there anything that indicates that. I know

369
00:20:49,039 --> 00:20:50,720
that there are people who will say, man, I just

370
00:20:51,319 --> 00:20:53,160
I want to look like a workout, Well do you?

371
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:55,640
I mean one way to look like you work out?

372
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,440
Does it actually work out. In that case, people might

373
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,279
look at you and say, hey, I bet that dude

374
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:03,200
works out. Is there anything in your life that would

375
00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,000
cause people to say, yeah, this person blocks of Jesus. Okay,

376
00:21:06,000 --> 00:21:08,559
maybe it's this. Maybe there is a bumper strip on

377
00:21:08,599 --> 00:21:11,359
your car that is the cross of Christ, or maybe

378
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,119
it's up in the windshield, because I've seen these. I've

379
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,680
seen these crosses of Christ in the windshields of trucks

380
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,640
in North Idaho. And then from time to time I

381
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:22,519
see in the middle of it a picture of a

382
00:21:22,559 --> 00:21:25,720
boy urinating on Joe Biden's face, and then next to

383
00:21:25,759 --> 00:21:29,759
that I see a sign that says after feelings. So

384
00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:33,039
I'm left to wonder our weight Are you a Christian?

385
00:21:33,079 --> 00:21:35,920
Because I see the cross, But then I see those

386
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,319
two other things, And now I'm left wondering, maybe you

387
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:40,640
go to church. Maybe you bought the truck and then

388
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:43,759
you put the cross. Maybe didn't. Is there anything in

389
00:21:43,799 --> 00:21:48,720
your life that would indicate that you are a follower

390
00:21:48,759 --> 00:21:53,160
of Jesus Christ. This isn't my question. I'm simply looking

391
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,640
at it from a spirit perspective. Fruits of the Spirit.

392
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,559
A guy named Paul Washer looked at this and asked

393
00:21:58,559 --> 00:22:00,559
some questions. So let's talk about some ways that we

394
00:22:00,599 --> 00:22:03,559
can tell are people walking with Christ. Let's look at

395
00:22:03,559 --> 00:22:05,920
some ways we can measure ourselves. Are we walking? We

396
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,160
might think we are, but sometimes we can get off track.

397
00:22:09,319 --> 00:22:11,160
I'll show you this video of Paul Washer in just

398
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,720
a second, because he phrases this in a way I

399
00:22:13,759 --> 00:22:16,960
have not. I want you to see a video. I

400
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,079
want you to see a video of a little boy

401
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,720
who is not walking with Christ because he doesn't really

402
00:22:21,759 --> 00:22:25,079
know Jesus. He's walking around with the sword from King Arthur,

403
00:22:25,559 --> 00:22:27,359
with the round table, and he wants to do this

404
00:22:27,519 --> 00:22:30,680
and that to heads, and his dad is kind of

405
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:32,960
putting up with him. And the boy is, quite frankly,

406
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,319
an obnoxious, kind of brady little kid to begin with.

407
00:22:36,279 --> 00:22:38,799
And as he learns about Jesus through his father, who

408
00:22:38,839 --> 00:22:41,440
happens to be a bit of a storyteller. This is

409
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:43,920
an animated feature. The dad happens to be this cat

410
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:49,240
named Chuck Dickens. Oh, pardon me, Charles Dickens. See Charles

411
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:52,119
Dickens wrote a paper called the Life of Our Lord

412
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:53,960
and he shared it with his family. He was a Christian,

413
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:58,079
and this movie is the animated Charles Dickens sharing this

414
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:03,960
with his animated little boy who is changed, and then

415
00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:08,079
he wants to go and change his siblings. And Angel

416
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,440
Studios wants you to see this because it can be

417
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,799
life changing, and because they make money on it. They

00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:06,200
It's Angel dot com slash Todd. Here's Paul Washer asking

433
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,039
a very important question about us and people being able

434
00:24:09,039 --> 00:24:10,200
to tell we belong to Jesus.

435
00:24:10,279 --> 00:24:13,839
Speaker 6: What a horrible thing it would be to see him

436
00:24:13,839 --> 00:24:16,920
one day as he is, and to realize that in

437
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:20,960
your life you sold him so cheap that you traded

438
00:24:21,039 --> 00:24:27,519
him for so many things, like children playing marbles with diamonds.

439
00:24:28,799 --> 00:24:32,720
Many of you here would say Jesus Christ is Lord,

440
00:24:34,319 --> 00:24:35,359
but you live it though he's not.

441
00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:37,640
Speaker 1: Who would watch your.

442
00:24:37,519 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 7: Life and say, who would watch your life? Think about it,

443
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:45,079
young person, who would watch your life and say Jesus

444
00:24:45,119 --> 00:24:49,480
is Lord of that one that one believes that Christ

445
00:24:49,559 --> 00:24:54,279
is everything, that one believes that Christ is life itself.

446
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,279
Speaker 6: He says, there's none who understand. There's none who seek

447
00:24:57,319 --> 00:25:02,400
for God. They have turned aside together they have become useless.

448
00:25:02,799 --> 00:25:03,799
Let me ask you a question.

449
00:25:05,319 --> 00:25:06,920
Speaker 1: How useful are you to God?

450
00:25:08,839 --> 00:25:12,759
Speaker 6: How do you serve Him? What is it you actually do?

451
00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,440
Speaker 1: Great great question by Paul Washer, who is an evangelist.

452
00:25:17,519 --> 00:25:19,680
You're probably know him with his work on Heart cry

453
00:25:19,759 --> 00:25:24,920
Missionary Society. Great question, what do you do? Now? See,

454
00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:29,599
this is not about earning redemption. You can't because we

455
00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:32,839
don't deserve it. That's a free gift given us through

456
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:35,599
the blood of Jesus Christ, offered to us for free

457
00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,319
we simply have to accept it and meaningfully accept it.

458
00:25:38,319 --> 00:25:41,559
And then, in other words, in the heart, Jesus, I

459
00:25:41,599 --> 00:25:44,359
repent of my sins. I've sinned against you. It saddens me.

460
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,279
I want you to be my savior. I know you

461
00:25:48,319 --> 00:25:50,640
the savior of mankind. Except you, as my personal Lord

462
00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:54,119
and savior, I choose to follow you. Please, Jesus, come

463
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,359
into my life. Please give me the Holy Spirit, the

464
00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,440
special helper to help me abide with you and to

465
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,680
become safe, which means to become wholly over time, more

466
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,000
and more like Jesus. So that's not about that. That's

467
00:26:05,039 --> 00:26:09,200
the change that's accepting. It's how do people know? And frankly,

468
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:12,519
why is it important that they know? I'll give you

469
00:26:12,559 --> 00:26:16,240
another kind of earthly kind of metaphor and we'll get

470
00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:18,920
into the Bible. So back in the day when I

471
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:21,960
worked at Microsoft and the iPod had come out, which

472
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,680
was the precursor to the phone, right, it was just

473
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,480
a music device, and people were walking around New York

474
00:26:28,519 --> 00:26:31,519
City and they had these white headphones because they weren't

475
00:26:31,559 --> 00:26:33,799
yet earbuds. I mean, they weren't the big headphones like

476
00:26:33,799 --> 00:26:36,200
I'm wearing now. The cans as we say in broadcasting

477
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,079
that they were just tiny little things in your ears.

478
00:26:38,079 --> 00:26:45,160
But they were always white, brilliant, utterly brilliant. Why because

479
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:50,759
that had never been done, those little earbuds. Apple didn't

480
00:26:50,799 --> 00:26:54,680
invent those. The existed for years, but they were always black.

481
00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,640
Why because people don't want some big white cords sticking

482
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:00,880
around them. It's too Apple looked at that said, oh, no,

483
00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:05,920
we're going to have everybody with a white headphone or

484
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,480
earbud cord because none of them record. This is at

485
00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:12,000
the point that's an advertisement for a music device that's

486
00:27:12,079 --> 00:27:16,759
hidden in their pocket. You knew they were listening to

487
00:27:16,839 --> 00:27:22,000
an Apple iPod because of the headphones or earbuds. When

488
00:27:22,039 --> 00:27:24,480
I worked at Microsoft and they brought me a device

489
00:27:24,559 --> 00:27:26,799
that was the wrong color, I said, guys, you don't

490
00:27:26,839 --> 00:27:31,920
get it. Yet, you don't get it. So what is

491
00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:35,400
it in our lives that would indicate to people that

492
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:37,519
we follow the Lord Jesus? Well, this is what we're

493
00:27:37,519 --> 00:27:40,440
shooting for. This is from Galatians chapter five, Verses twenty

494
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:43,680
two and twenty three. But the fruit of the spirit

495
00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:49,759
is love, joy, peace for barns, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness,

496
00:27:49,759 --> 00:27:53,480
and self control. Against such things, there is no law

497
00:27:55,079 --> 00:27:58,759
so we want people to observe in us love, How well,

498
00:27:58,799 --> 00:28:03,960
how do you love? You are patient, You don't keep

499
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:10,480
lists of grievances, You forgive. You're neither angry nor proud.

500
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:14,680
Sometimes people get angry, sometimes people fall into pride, but

501
00:28:14,759 --> 00:28:18,480
you are not those things. Those are things you can

502
00:28:18,559 --> 00:28:24,119
display to others. Patience can be displayed for barents can

503
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:28,720
be displayed. Forgiveness can be acted upon, both formally at

504
00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:33,759
the cross asking God to forgive you or in my case,

505
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:38,880
my inequities and asking God to forgive others, or taking

506
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:42,000
your grievance against others because we're going to have them,

507
00:28:42,039 --> 00:28:44,480
because we'll have troubles of these life to God and saying,

508
00:28:44,519 --> 00:28:47,160
please lift this from me, Please help me forgive this person.

509
00:28:47,319 --> 00:28:50,160
You could do that as you hate a person you're

510
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,880
experiencing hate. Lord, I hate this person. I'm not to hate.

511
00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,079
I'm to love my enemy. Lord, Please lift from me

512
00:28:55,119 --> 00:28:59,119
this hate, Please take it from me. Please give me patience, Lord,

513
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,480
I don't have it in my flesh. Please give me yours.

514
00:29:01,799 --> 00:29:03,960
And the Holy Spirit can do that if we ask

515
00:29:04,039 --> 00:29:09,319
for it. And this manifests for people faithfulness, the faithfulness

516
00:29:09,359 --> 00:29:12,920
of a friend. You have a friend that goes way, way,

517
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:17,160
way off track. Maybe they get into drugs and alcohol

518
00:29:17,319 --> 00:29:19,559
and looking at terrible stuff on their phones at night,

519
00:29:19,599 --> 00:29:22,079
and you know this and they're confessing it, and maybe

520
00:29:22,119 --> 00:29:23,720
you have to say, you know what, I can't hang

521
00:29:23,759 --> 00:29:25,839
with you right now. I can't go out with you,

522
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:27,079
but I want to talk with you in the phone.

523
00:29:27,119 --> 00:29:29,880
I do not honor this contact with you while you're

524
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:31,880
in this state. I can't be around it, but I

525
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,160
want to be able to provide counsel and talk with you.

526
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:37,279
Maybe you have an arms link arrangement and relationship for

527
00:29:37,319 --> 00:29:39,599
a while, and that relationship is what brings them back

528
00:29:39,599 --> 00:29:44,559
to Christ, and they'll remember your faithfulness and others will

529
00:29:44,559 --> 00:29:49,200
as well. Maybe you've gone through a situation in a

530
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:54,319
marriage where your faithfulness is going to propel other people

531
00:29:54,319 --> 00:29:59,599
to be faithful, and that commitment the forbearance, which is

532
00:29:59,599 --> 00:30:03,480
another the way of saying long suffering. When people observe

533
00:30:03,599 --> 00:30:06,160
these things, they can begin to know that you follow

534
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:10,160
Jesus Christ. There's some ways to know people do not

535
00:30:10,799 --> 00:30:17,119
follow Jesus Christ. In the wake of the disasters in

536
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:21,759
the flood in Texas, there were people who wrote things

537
00:30:21,839 --> 00:30:27,480
like this, Chris Tina get it Chris Blank Tina, may

538
00:30:27,519 --> 00:30:30,799
all visitors, children, non mega voters, and pets be safe

539
00:30:30,839 --> 00:30:34,200
and dry. Prayer hands. Keer County mega voters voted to

540
00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,559
gut FEMA, they deny climate change. May they get what

541
00:30:36,559 --> 00:30:43,960
they voted for? Bless their hearts. Doctor Lynn Flynn Jirella

542
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,759
points this out. This is the sort of pediatric clinician

543
00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:53,079
employed at Bluefish MD in Houston, Texas. The ethics, humanity,

544
00:30:53,079 --> 00:30:58,079
and empathy illustrated here is unfathomable. Then Mary Tanley Bowden

545
00:30:58,559 --> 00:31:02,160
leans in, she's a doctor. This is Christina Propst who

546
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,720
encourage members of the public to report me to the

547
00:31:04,759 --> 00:31:11,119
Texas Medical Board. Doctor Bowden took a different view of

548
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:15,880
infectious disease and she acted upon it, and the data

549
00:31:16,079 --> 00:31:20,920
indicates she saved patients lives. You can look at this

550
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:25,920
and say number one, Christina is definitely not in the spirit.

551
00:31:26,759 --> 00:31:28,640
You can look at Mary Taylor Bowen and say it

552
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,920
is deeply unfair. What happened to you? And are you

553
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:38,640
keeping a list of grievances? Have you forgiven her? Now

554
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:42,200
that's hard to do. Someone has taken something dear from you.

555
00:31:42,279 --> 00:31:45,920
It's so difficult to do. Sometimes people aren't ready. But

556
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:52,000
God can help make you ready. Here's another example, and

557
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,200
this one comes from the right. I am someone who

558
00:31:55,279 --> 00:31:58,279
does not like the government coming out and banning fireworks.

559
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:03,559
I grew up with rockets and firecrackers and an occasional

560
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,720
half sick at d item. Hey, I grew up nearer north,

561
00:32:06,759 --> 00:32:10,119
idho forgive me Now. I'm at an age where I

562
00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,920
don't like hearing him. I'm at an age where I

563
00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:14,400
get up at four thirty in the morning, so I

564
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,240
don't like being up all night. I have a dog

565
00:32:16,319 --> 00:32:19,119
that doesn't need this stuff, and when they go off,

566
00:32:19,519 --> 00:32:22,119
I try to be understanding. We did it too, but

567
00:32:22,200 --> 00:32:26,680
I don't take this attitude. It's a very famous meme,

568
00:32:26,759 --> 00:32:28,599
and it's a great one, and I would so love

569
00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,200
to meet the guy in the cameo hat. Did you

570
00:32:30,279 --> 00:32:33,519
do this on purpose? Were you throwing shade at figurehead Biden?

571
00:32:33,839 --> 00:32:36,640
They're standing here in a restaurant and Biden's pretending to visit,

572
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,079
and it's indeed in there, at least in body form.

573
00:32:39,319 --> 00:32:42,000
There's cameras everywhere, and there's this guy sitting at a

574
00:32:42,039 --> 00:32:45,480
table with his head in his hands, looking forward, not

575
00:32:45,599 --> 00:32:48,440
paying attention to figurehead Biden at all. Who's looking at him.

576
00:32:48,519 --> 00:32:52,440
I'm right here, I should understand you're my son bo Parton,

577
00:32:52,519 --> 00:32:54,720
I mean to look like I drove an eighteen wheeler.

578
00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:00,000
And the meme says under Biden my neighbor's Facebook post

579
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:05,000
about her dog's anxiety, and then me and the guy

580
00:33:05,119 --> 00:33:06,759
is sitting there at a table with a whole bunch

581
00:33:06,759 --> 00:33:11,519
of fireworks in front of himself. See this goes back

582
00:33:12,400 --> 00:33:17,079
to blank your feelings. It goes back to that terrible

583
00:33:17,119 --> 00:33:21,559
bumper strip I see on Christian cars and trucks, the

584
00:33:21,599 --> 00:33:24,240
Cross of Christ with blank your feelings. The two things

585
00:33:24,279 --> 00:33:27,759
do not go together. Now. I'm not saying we should

586
00:33:27,799 --> 00:33:30,279
take away your rights to fireworks. I'm also not saying

587
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,160
that you shouldn't go to a neighbor who has severe

588
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:36,359
anxiety or her dog has severe anxiety, and go to

589
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:38,440
her and say, hey, listen, could I pay for some

590
00:33:38,519 --> 00:33:40,000
CBD stuff for your dog?

591
00:33:42,079 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 3: Hey?

592
00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,480
Speaker 1: Could I get your dog a nice doggy hotel for

593
00:33:44,519 --> 00:33:47,480
the night. We really enjoy fireworks with the family. I

594
00:33:47,519 --> 00:33:50,200
know there's this deep anxiety. Hey, you know what, you're

595
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,039
a neighbor. Could we pay for a place for you

596
00:33:53,119 --> 00:33:54,880
and your husband could take your dog for a day

597
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,200
and night? Maybe it's our lake. Well I'm not lake

598
00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,839
cabin because they're gonna get that there. But do things

599
00:33:59,880 --> 00:34:03,960
to mitigate this, right, isn't that what we're to do?

600
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:08,360
In this way people can know your Christians. Here's another example,

601
00:34:08,559 --> 00:34:11,320
another meme, and this is a pretty famous meme. It's

602
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:13,239
a guy setting up a series of blocks. So it's

603
00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,280
the Dominoes experience, but it's taken to it an absurd degree.

604
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,920
Starts with dominoes and then these white blocks that get

605
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,719
up to be about four feet tall, and of course

606
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:23,920
the little block knocks over a slightly bigger block, and

607
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,440
a slightly bigger block, until they'reknocking over these huge blocks.

608
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:29,320
And on the little block side is the guy's placing it.

609
00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,599
It says the Babylon Bee calls Rachel Levin a man.

610
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,119
Rachel Levin was the man who pretended to be a

611
00:34:35,119 --> 00:34:37,719
woman who helped run Health and Human Services into the ground.

612
00:34:38,599 --> 00:34:41,199
The big domino that's about to tip over is a

613
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:46,960
UFC fight on the White House lawn. YEP, a outrageous thing.

614
00:34:47,639 --> 00:34:50,199
A man pretending to be a woman running Health and

615
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:53,599
Human Services launched a whole series of outrages that put

616
00:34:53,599 --> 00:34:56,360
President Trump back into office and now we're going to

617
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:59,760
celebrate this by having a sport where men beat each

618
00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:03,119
other or bloody on the steps or the lawn of

619
00:35:03,159 --> 00:35:07,079
the White House. I don't care for UFC. I don't

620
00:35:07,119 --> 00:35:09,719
care for what it does to bodies. I wrestled in

621
00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,159
high school, should have wrestled in college. I'm not here

622
00:35:12,199 --> 00:35:13,840
to say that you shouldn't do it. I'm not here

623
00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:17,119
to say you shouldn't watch it. I'm here to say,

624
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:19,400
is it truly what we want on our white house lawn?

625
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:22,559
Is that truly what we want to celebrate? It seems

626
00:35:22,599 --> 00:35:24,519
a lot like Bread and Circuses. To me, it seems

627
00:35:24,519 --> 00:35:27,480
a lot like Roman theater. It seems a lot like

628
00:35:27,559 --> 00:35:31,199
projecting a brand of masculinity that may not be the

629
00:35:31,199 --> 00:35:34,599
brand of masculinity that Jesus Christ would have us transmit

630
00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:39,960
as men. Jesus was the strongest man who ever lived.

631
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,400
You may think you can put up with that stuff

632
00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,280
that happened to him prior to the cross and afterwards.

633
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,760
I'm here to tell you you could not. I'm here

634
00:35:47,800 --> 00:35:50,840
to tell you you could not stand the cups of

635
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:55,800
wrath that God Almighty poured out upon Jesus's head. It

636
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:59,000
would have melted you and it would melt me. So

637
00:35:59,079 --> 00:36:01,559
what's in our lives show that we follow Jesus is

638
00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,000
things we've talked about, These are some of the things

639
00:36:04,119 --> 00:36:07,519
that indicate we do not. This is an Islamic preacher

640
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:12,559
displaying a key difference between Christianity and Islam, at least

641
00:36:12,559 --> 00:36:13,760
if you believe his interpretation.

642
00:36:16,199 --> 00:36:19,639
Speaker 8: How about the murderer, About the one who commits adultries

643
00:36:19,639 --> 00:36:22,320
in it? What about the one who writes a child?

644
00:36:22,719 --> 00:36:25,360
What about the one who drinks alcohol, go to bed?

645
00:36:26,519 --> 00:36:29,840
This person one person that com meets all of these scenes.

646
00:36:30,639 --> 00:36:33,840
He com meets all of these scenes on a daily basis.

647
00:36:34,559 --> 00:36:37,639
But he prays. It's better in the eyes of the

648
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,760
law than the one that doesn't can mean any of

649
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:40,719
these scenes.

650
00:36:40,599 --> 00:36:44,599
Speaker 1: But doesn't pray. Now, if you believe this interpretation, and

651
00:36:44,639 --> 00:36:46,960
I'm not educated enough about Islam to know if I do,

652
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:49,280
it's a massive difference.

653
00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 2: Here.

654
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:53,599
Speaker 1: He describes some horrible harms people do to people, and

655
00:36:53,639 --> 00:36:58,519
then continue to pray. The God of the universe, the

656
00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:04,079
Triune God, the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, they know everything,

657
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:08,320
they know your motives, they know things whispered in the dark.

658
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,920
They're not fooled by praying and then going back and

659
00:37:12,000 --> 00:37:14,079
sinning and praying, and sinning and praying, and sinning and

660
00:37:14,079 --> 00:37:16,039
praying and sinning, as if to get good at it,

661
00:37:16,159 --> 00:37:18,760
practicing sin like you're practicing a sport to get better

662
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:22,920
at it. They're not fooled by that. In fact, in

663
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:27,159
the Christian faith, we are told, we are warned that

664
00:37:27,199 --> 00:37:29,320
there will be people on judgment Day who say, to

665
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,719
Jesus Christ, but wait, wait, wait, Lord Lord, Wait, stop, wait,

666
00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,280
don't kick me out? Wait well, Lord Lord, and you're

667
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:37,920
bowing and you're scraping. Lord. Didn't we perform miracles in

668
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:38,320
your name?

669
00:37:38,639 --> 00:37:38,800
Speaker 5: Wait?

670
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:42,039
Speaker 1: Wait? Didn't we cast out demons? Lord? Wait? And Jesus says,

671
00:37:42,599 --> 00:37:47,840
I never knew you. Go away from the evildoers. Boom,

672
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:52,880
you made your decision. God's not fooled by false prayer.

673
00:37:55,119 --> 00:37:59,239
And we shouldn't fool ourselves into believing in checking a

674
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:04,400
box for pardon the language hell insurance. What we should

675
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:08,519
do is check ourselves on a daily basis. Are we

676
00:38:08,559 --> 00:38:11,519
walking in the spirit these are the fruits of the spirit,

677
00:38:11,639 --> 00:38:13,559
Or are we in the fruit of the flesh, the

678
00:38:13,639 --> 00:38:18,079
rotten flute of the fresh flesh? Are we treating each

679
00:38:18,079 --> 00:38:21,360
other with God's definition of love? Are we keeping lists

680
00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:22,840
of grievances. Are we being patient?

681
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:23,119
Speaker 4: Kind?

682
00:38:23,199 --> 00:38:27,000
Speaker 1: Are we given to anger and pride and outbursts of either?

683
00:38:28,079 --> 00:38:32,039
Because falling off the map that way can sometimes be temporary,

684
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:38,079
other times it can end up all too permanent. This

685
00:38:38,119 --> 00:38:40,960
is the Todd Hermannshaw. Please go, be well, be strong,

686
00:38:41,159 --> 00:38:44,000
be kind, and please make every effort to walk in

687
00:38:44,079 --> 00:38:44,920
the light of Christ.
