WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.480 --> 00:00:03.319
<v Speaker 1>Oh, you've seen the dynamic. I'm sure that there is

2
00:00:03.480 --> 00:00:08.160
<v Speaker 1>this virtuous redistricting from time to time, this tactical use

3
00:00:09.039 --> 00:00:12.759
<v Speaker 1>of redistricting areas to make sure that voters are well represented,

4
00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:15.759
<v Speaker 1>that there's equality or maybe even equity, and it's a

5
00:00:15.800 --> 00:00:21.600
<v Speaker 1>peaceful exercise. It's taken through thoughtfully, with great sobriety, nonpartisan,

6
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:25.960
<v Speaker 1>no political talked about this political random story. This was

7
00:00:26.399 --> 00:00:30.359
<v Speaker 1>their headline. Democrats try to separate their tactical use of

8
00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:35.520
<v Speaker 1>districting from that of Republicans tactical use. And right there

9
00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:39.280
<v Speaker 1>on the covers picture of JB. Pritzker. He's the dictator

10
00:00:39.280 --> 00:00:43.479
<v Speaker 1>of Illinois. He was the dictator of Illinois during one

11
00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:47.159
<v Speaker 1>of the most well tactical or maybe strategic or maybe

12
00:00:47.200 --> 00:00:51.119
<v Speaker 1>complete redistricting a registrict of any state in the country.

13
00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:53.880
<v Speaker 1>But the political also had a different view, and this

14
00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:56.159
<v Speaker 1>was when Republicans were doing this. Ready for this. This

15
00:00:56.240 --> 00:00:59.560
<v Speaker 1>is from March third or March fourteenth, twenty twenty three,

16
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:01.359
<v Speaker 1>to the other one from just this year. Here we go.

17
00:01:02.679 --> 00:01:07.560
<v Speaker 1>Republicans are ready to plow ahead with ambitious jerry mannering

18
00:01:07.599 --> 00:01:11.040
<v Speaker 1>despite previous reprimands from state courts. Now that they've elected

19
00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:19.319
<v Speaker 1>judges who are less likely to thwart their plantlet what's

20
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:23.879
<v Speaker 1>that like to work in an organization like that? That

21
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:27.920
<v Speaker 1>mask rades is a news organization. What's it like to

22
00:01:28.079 --> 00:01:31.040
<v Speaker 1>know that you switch out the players and the terminology

23
00:01:31.159 --> 00:01:35.159
<v Speaker 1>based upon who's doing what. What's it like to publish

24
00:01:35.280 --> 00:01:37.359
<v Speaker 1>that and know that people like me are going to

25
00:01:37.359 --> 00:01:39.719
<v Speaker 1>grab that and point to that and have all sorts

26
00:01:39.760 --> 00:01:42.159
<v Speaker 1>of fun talking about that. What's it like to take

27
00:01:42.200 --> 00:01:45.239
<v Speaker 1>an organization like a Politico and rub its face so

28
00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:47.920
<v Speaker 1>far in its own filth that it can't look up

29
00:01:47.959 --> 00:01:49.719
<v Speaker 1>and see anything but its own filth? Do you know

30
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:51.840
<v Speaker 1>what the Politico does? One of the things that business

31
00:01:51.840 --> 00:01:56.079
<v Speaker 1>model entails. They have these get togethers. Well, they have

32
00:01:56.159 --> 00:01:59.319
<v Speaker 1>in super important people like JB. Pritzker and Hillary Rodham

33
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:02.040
<v Speaker 1>Clinton come in and speak, and they go up on

34
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:03.959
<v Speaker 1>a stage and they get interviewed by one of the

35
00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:09.039
<v Speaker 1>really robust journalists with the Politico, and they ask tough questions.

36
00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:12.360
<v Speaker 1>And you can pay fifteen hundred to three thousand, maybe

37
00:02:12.360 --> 00:02:16.039
<v Speaker 1>five thousand bucks to attend. Why well, because you get

38
00:02:16.039 --> 00:02:19.039
<v Speaker 1>to see it at a table with other very important

39
00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:22.479
<v Speaker 1>people and maybe even get an opportunity to meet some

40
00:02:22.599 --> 00:02:26.039
<v Speaker 1>of these incredibly important people like JB. Pritzker. So the

41
00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:28.879
<v Speaker 1>political pockets that money. And guess what, they're not lobbyists.

42
00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:32.719
<v Speaker 1>They're not setting up a meeting between you and a politician.

43
00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:36.199
<v Speaker 1>They would never do that because they're journalists, as evidenced

44
00:02:36.199 --> 00:02:39.719
<v Speaker 1>by how they cover redistricting. In twenty twenty two, JB.

45
00:02:39.800 --> 00:02:43.479
<v Speaker 1>Pritzker pass one of the most partisan gerrymandered maps in history.

46
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:47.560
<v Speaker 2>The controversy has shined a spotlight on Illinois's congressional map.

47
00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:51.520
<v Speaker 2>As a candidate, Governor Pritzker vow to veto redistricting drawn

48
00:02:51.560 --> 00:02:54.719
<v Speaker 2>by legislators or their staffs, but he went on to

49
00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:57.560
<v Speaker 2>approve a map that gave his party a fourteen to

50
00:02:57.639 --> 00:02:59.879
<v Speaker 2>three advantage in the congressional delegation.

51
00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:02.599
<v Speaker 3>The fact that Governor Prisker is inserting himself in what's

52
00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:05.479
<v Speaker 3>going on in Texas is the height of hypocrisy. He

53
00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:08.639
<v Speaker 3>broke his promise to Illinois voters not once but twice

54
00:03:09.199 --> 00:03:11.800
<v Speaker 3>in signing the most jerrymandered map in the nation.

55
00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:16.680
<v Speaker 1>When he did this, of course, it was the virtuous

56
00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:20.360
<v Speaker 1>type and Republicans need to catch on to this. There's

57
00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:25.080
<v Speaker 1>virtuous racism. The Democrats are the authors of virtuous racism.

58
00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:31.759
<v Speaker 1>If you're using racism to keep disgusting, stinking whites out

59
00:03:31.759 --> 00:03:35.280
<v Speaker 1>of going to Harvard or dis stinking Asian men from

60
00:03:35.319 --> 00:03:40.000
<v Speaker 1>going to Harvard, Well that's virtuous racism. However, if you're

61
00:03:40.039 --> 00:03:42.919
<v Speaker 1>suggesting that black people should be held to the same

62
00:03:43.080 --> 00:03:46.719
<v Speaker 1>laws and requirements of other people, well then that's the

63
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:50.840
<v Speaker 1>disgusting form of racism. In the separate countries like Seattle,

64
00:03:51.319 --> 00:03:53.599
<v Speaker 1>they've taken this approach of doing away with any and

65
00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:57.840
<v Speaker 1>all ap advanced placement classes. They've done this because not

66
00:03:57.960 --> 00:04:00.439
<v Speaker 1>enough Black kids were getting into the vast placement horses.

67
00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:04.560
<v Speaker 1>That is virtuous racism because you're saying black kids can't

68
00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:08.039
<v Speaker 1>be expected to go raise their own standards. We can't

69
00:04:08.039 --> 00:04:09.960
<v Speaker 1>have help with the families, we can't recognize that there's

70
00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:12.479
<v Speaker 1>a family structure problem. We can't look at this data

71
00:04:12.479 --> 00:04:14.120
<v Speaker 1>and say, my goodness, what can we do to help

72
00:04:14.159 --> 00:04:16.839
<v Speaker 1>black people. Nope, just make the problem go away. That's

73
00:04:16.920 --> 00:04:21.439
<v Speaker 1>virtuous racism. And virtuous redistricting is where you have this

74
00:04:21.720 --> 00:04:25.160
<v Speaker 1>very very tactical idea. Are you just going to balance

75
00:04:25.199 --> 00:04:28.720
<v Speaker 1>the seats out? Joe Biden issued an executive order. It

76
00:04:28.759 --> 00:04:31.399
<v Speaker 1>was Executive of one three nine eighty six on day

77
00:04:31.399 --> 00:04:35.319
<v Speaker 1>one of his presidency. And this was a very virtuous act.

78
00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:39.480
<v Speaker 1>It was to take illegal immigrants and to count them

79
00:04:39.519 --> 00:04:42.040
<v Speaker 1>in the census. So here's the way to look at this.

80
00:04:42.120 --> 00:04:44.879
<v Speaker 1>That might be helpful if you were to take all

81
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:48.480
<v Speaker 1>the people who snuck into it's say, an event, and

82
00:04:48.560 --> 00:04:50.480
<v Speaker 1>count them as having paid to get into the event.

83
00:04:50.519 --> 00:04:53.079
<v Speaker 1>How would that work. Let's say it's the super Bowl.

84
00:04:53.800 --> 00:04:55.879
<v Speaker 1>Let's say you sell one hundred thousand seats to the

85
00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:58.560
<v Speaker 1>super Bowl, and you're reporting back to your folks that

86
00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:00.959
<v Speaker 1>this is how many seats were filled. And they're looking

87
00:05:01.000 --> 00:05:03.160
<v Speaker 1>at this and saying, okay, so the seat's average costs

88
00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:05.800
<v Speaker 1>for three hundred bucks, we should be looking at thirty

89
00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:07.959
<v Speaker 1>million in revenue. Here, what do we have about ten

90
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:08.800
<v Speaker 1>thousand bucks?

91
00:05:09.319 --> 00:05:09.399
<v Speaker 3>What?

92
00:05:09.519 --> 00:05:12.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, a bunch of people's not in what you counted them? Well,

93
00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:14.399
<v Speaker 1>sure you, I mean they're at the game. Well but

94
00:05:14.519 --> 00:05:16.600
<v Speaker 1>they didn't pay to get in, right, But they were there,

95
00:05:16.639 --> 00:05:20.040
<v Speaker 1>So it was a huge success. Take this to concert tours.

96
00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:22.680
<v Speaker 1>You think the Rolling Stones would be very, very happy

97
00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:25.000
<v Speaker 1>if their management came along and told them, hey, Mick

98
00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:27.279
<v Speaker 1>Keith and the rest of the guys who are down

99
00:05:27.279 --> 00:05:28.920
<v Speaker 1>in the bed, who's still in the band as original

100
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:31.600
<v Speaker 1>it's Mick, it's Keith. Is ron Woods still in there?

101
00:05:31.639 --> 00:05:33.040
<v Speaker 1>I think ron Wood still in there. Then there's like

102
00:05:33.040 --> 00:05:35.279
<v Speaker 1>two of the guys. Charlie Wats died, God rest him,

103
00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:38.279
<v Speaker 1>and then Bill Wyman doesn't tour anymore. So if they

104
00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:41.480
<v Speaker 1>went back to the three original members and said, guys, congratulations,

105
00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:45.439
<v Speaker 1>we sold up Madison Square Garden. Here's your fifty thousand dollars,

106
00:05:45.439 --> 00:05:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Mick would sue that Mick has a He pursued a

107
00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:49.959
<v Speaker 1>degree in an NBA. Did you know that that was

108
00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:51.759
<v Speaker 1>just what he was studying to be as a master's

109
00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:54.120
<v Speaker 1>in business. Well, no, a bunch of people's not in

110
00:05:55.519 --> 00:05:58.759
<v Speaker 1>Joe Biden passed a redistricting order. And I'm not a

111
00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:01.839
<v Speaker 1>redistrict order, but who passed this order, this executive order

112
00:06:01.879 --> 00:06:04.600
<v Speaker 1>to count illegals in the census. What I love about

113
00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:06.279
<v Speaker 1>this is I'm about to play a clip and it's

114
00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:10.360
<v Speaker 1>not from someone in the conservative media space. It's not

115
00:06:10.360 --> 00:06:12.360
<v Speaker 1>from someone on the Blaze, just somebody you've heard of.

116
00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:16.560
<v Speaker 1>It's a count with a handheld mic making a commentary

117
00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:20.519
<v Speaker 1>that has now become common sense understanding in the United

118
00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:21.720
<v Speaker 1>States of America.

119
00:06:21.800 --> 00:06:24.839
<v Speaker 4>At four am this morning, Donald Trump posted on truth

120
00:06:24.959 --> 00:06:27.720
<v Speaker 4>Social his posts said that they are currently working on

121
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:32.240
<v Speaker 4>redoing the United States census and under new rules, illegal

122
00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:35.879
<v Speaker 4>immigrants will not be counted in that census. This means

123
00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:39.519
<v Speaker 4>that Democrats could potentially lose up to thirty seats. So

124
00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:42.519
<v Speaker 4>when the Democrats rushed all these illegal immigrants to their

125
00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:46.000
<v Speaker 4>sanctuary cities, they increase the number of people that live there,

126
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:49.480
<v Speaker 4>increasing their number of seats. But if all the illegal

127
00:06:49.480 --> 00:06:52.240
<v Speaker 4>immigrants were removed, then the number of people that live

128
00:06:52.279 --> 00:06:56.360
<v Speaker 4>there would massively decrease, decreasing their number of seats. Donald

129
00:06:56.360 --> 00:06:59.959
<v Speaker 4>Trump were to eliminate all illegal immigrants from the census,

130
00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:04.199
<v Speaker 4>jerrymandering wouldn't be needed for Democrats to lose those seats.

131
00:07:04.360 --> 00:07:06.920
<v Speaker 4>But based on the data, the Democrats have actually gained

132
00:07:06.920 --> 00:07:11.240
<v Speaker 4>about thirty seats for packing illegal immigrants into their Democrat

133
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:13.839
<v Speaker 4>districts and then doing a census right after.

134
00:07:13.959 --> 00:07:17.399
<v Speaker 1>That wasn't tactical, that was strategic. It was a virtual

135
00:07:17.519 --> 00:07:21.120
<v Speaker 1>population bomb, and the job was, of course to destroy

136
00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:23.959
<v Speaker 1>the electroc college count. There was no article in the

137
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:28.519
<v Speaker 1>political about that was that jerrymandering. Yes, it was germanding

138
00:07:28.600 --> 00:07:32.839
<v Speaker 1>the entire country. It was gerymanding the entire counts in Congress.

139
00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:37.360
<v Speaker 1>So the selected treatment of this, the virtuous visc acts

140
00:07:37.360 --> 00:07:41.120
<v Speaker 1>of Joe Biden. It was virtuous after all illegal immigrants

141
00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:44.639
<v Speaker 1>or the country. After all, they live here, after all,

142
00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:47.839
<v Speaker 1>they affect government services, they should be counted. When President

143
00:07:47.839 --> 00:07:50.160
<v Speaker 1>Trump comes along with a countervailing point of view, well,

144
00:07:50.279 --> 00:07:54.079
<v Speaker 1>they're not supposed to be here. They're not using resources,

145
00:07:54.079 --> 00:07:57.279
<v Speaker 1>they're illegally using resources they're not supposed to have. They

146
00:07:57.279 --> 00:07:59.480
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't be counted in the census because they're not even

147
00:07:59.480 --> 00:08:01.519
<v Speaker 1>supposed to be here. You can go back and make

148
00:08:01.519 --> 00:08:04.680
<v Speaker 1>the same comparisons to things like the Rolling Stones concerts

149
00:08:04.759 --> 00:08:08.120
<v Speaker 1>or the NFL football game, the super Bowl. It doesn't

150
00:08:08.120 --> 00:08:10.639
<v Speaker 1>work one way, Why does it work the other? Because

151
00:08:10.639 --> 00:08:15.759
<v Speaker 1>we're playing the game of virtue versus plowing ahead. There's

152
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:19.160
<v Speaker 1>things you'll discover through time, and you'll discover that there's

153
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:21.759
<v Speaker 1>a lot of things that are treated as virtuous which

154
00:08:21.800 --> 00:08:25.279
<v Speaker 1>are very very scandalous. For instance, they will treat as

155
00:08:25.399 --> 00:08:28.600
<v Speaker 1>virtuous in this country that they pretend to use the

156
00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:30.480
<v Speaker 1>same form of stem cells that I've had in my

157
00:08:30.519 --> 00:08:33.799
<v Speaker 1>body three times, once in my back, and praise God

158
00:08:33.840 --> 00:08:36.200
<v Speaker 1>for that. I can't believe how effective this has been.

159
00:08:36.559 --> 00:08:38.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm in month sixth and I can go out and

160
00:08:38.919 --> 00:08:41.840
<v Speaker 1>deadlift now on pretty high reps weights that were causing

161
00:08:41.879 --> 00:08:44.519
<v Speaker 1>my back to click and hurt. And I maxed out

162
00:08:44.559 --> 00:08:47.240
<v Speaker 1>for the first time in probably two years, and the

163
00:08:47.240 --> 00:08:49.519
<v Speaker 1>weight I lifted was something I've been struggling to lift.

164
00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:51.679
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to get back up to four hundred and

165
00:08:51.679 --> 00:08:54.759
<v Speaker 1>four hundred and fifty pounds in my sixties, and I'm

166
00:08:54.759 --> 00:08:57.080
<v Speaker 1>doing that as well as doing CrossFit. I couldn't have

167
00:08:57.120 --> 00:09:00.480
<v Speaker 1>done that without the stem cells from Renew. Me talk

168
00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:02.240
<v Speaker 1>about these, and you've heard me talk about how it's

169
00:09:02.279 --> 00:09:05.799
<v Speaker 1>different than what happens in America. They are higher quality

170
00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:08.320
<v Speaker 1>because they know the people they take them from. They

171
00:09:08.399 --> 00:09:10.519
<v Speaker 1>count and track the health of the women and the

172
00:09:10.559 --> 00:09:13.840
<v Speaker 1>babies during pregnancy and after, and they take these things

173
00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:16.120
<v Speaker 1>straight from the hospital that is the umbilical cords right

174
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:19.320
<v Speaker 1>down into their lab. I'm putting on a free live

175
00:09:19.399 --> 00:09:23.759
<v Speaker 1>webinar with these guys September eleventh. It's eleventh Pacific and

<v Speaker 1>a free week stay at Hotel Meo in Porto Vararta.

179
00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:36.080
<v Speaker 1>It's actually probably the new Webenevarta right near Porto Varta

180
00:09:36.200 --> 00:09:40.200
<v Speaker 1>beautiful hotel I've stayed at twice. When you attend the webinar,

181
00:09:40.519 --> 00:09:43.200
<v Speaker 1>you also get to ask questions in advance so you

182
00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:45.879
<v Speaker 1>can talk about your case. Some of the doctors are

183
00:09:45.879 --> 00:09:47.240
<v Speaker 1>going to be there, some of the patients are going

184
00:09:47.279 --> 00:09:48.600
<v Speaker 1>to be there, and I'm going to be there. Go

185

<v Speaker 1>to join stem cell talks dot com and go learn

186
00:09:51.559 --> 00:09:54.399
<v Speaker 1>what you don't know about what the medical system in

187
00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:57.200
<v Speaker 1>America is pretending to be the same thing is what

188
00:09:57.279 --> 00:10:00.679
<v Speaker 1>goes on in Mexico. It's join stem cell talks dot com.

189
00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:04.120
<v Speaker 1>Gavin Newsom, he wants to play this game and his

190
00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:07.120
<v Speaker 1>whole role in life right now is Gavin Newsom is

191
00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:10.639
<v Speaker 1>begging to be attacked by President Trump, and sometimes President

192
00:10:10.639 --> 00:10:14.240
<v Speaker 1>Trump plays along. Gavin Newsom came out with this statement.

193
00:10:14.320 --> 00:10:16.279
<v Speaker 1>It was very trumpy and written. He's going to his

194
00:10:16.360 --> 00:10:19.440
<v Speaker 1>big announcement, It's going to end Trump's political career, et cetera.

195
00:10:19.879 --> 00:10:22.840
<v Speaker 1>He's trying to play the true social game. He's begging

196
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:25.399
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump to pay attention to him because Gavin Newsom

197
00:10:25.399 --> 00:10:28.600
<v Speaker 1>intends to run for president this time for real. He

198
00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:32.720
<v Speaker 1>is having a very difficult time though in being anything

199
00:10:32.759 --> 00:10:35.480
<v Speaker 1>other than a clown show that everybody can observe as

200
00:10:35.480 --> 00:10:36.960
<v Speaker 1>a clown show Illinois.

201
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:38.960
<v Speaker 5>Then as we'll start voting in Illinois.

202
00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:41.000
<v Speaker 6>Well, let me ask you this this final question, sir,

203
00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:44.919
<v Speaker 6>as a bigger picture item, which is what's unusual about

204
00:10:44.960 --> 00:10:48.320
<v Speaker 6>this is that you're attempting to do it in twenty

205
00:10:48.360 --> 00:10:50.480
<v Speaker 6>twenty five, as opposed to waiting un till the end

206
00:10:50.519 --> 00:10:53.919
<v Speaker 6>of the decade, as normally is when the redistricting takes place.

207
00:10:53.960 --> 00:10:56.600
<v Speaker 6>You've explained the Supreme Court decision that led you to

208
00:10:56.600 --> 00:10:58.600
<v Speaker 6>do this. But what's going on, obviously is not happening

209
00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:00.799
<v Speaker 6>in Texas, is not happening in a vacuum. We have

210
00:11:00.879 --> 00:11:05.759
<v Speaker 6>Democrats in California and New York and other states saying, well,

211
00:11:05.799 --> 00:11:09.600
<v Speaker 6>if Governor Abbott does this in Texas, we're going to

212
00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:12.759
<v Speaker 6>add five Democratic seats. Are you not worried at all

213
00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:19.480
<v Speaker 6>about a redistricting jerry mandering arms race going on? And theoretically,

214
00:11:19.960 --> 00:11:22.759
<v Speaker 6>is it not just better for voters to be picking

215
00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:25.720
<v Speaker 6>their politicians instead of politicians to be picking their voters

216
00:11:25.759 --> 00:11:26.600
<v Speaker 6>through jerrymandering.

217
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:31.840
<v Speaker 5>Well, to be clear, listen, all those big blue states

218
00:11:32.440 --> 00:11:35.639
<v Speaker 5>they've already jerry mandered. Look at the map of Illinois.

219
00:11:35.799 --> 00:11:39.200
<v Speaker 5>Look at the map of California, New York and Massachusetts

220
00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:42.120
<v Speaker 5>and so many other Blue states they jerrymandered a long

221
00:11:42.159 --> 00:11:45.399
<v Speaker 5>time ago. They got nothing left with regard to what

222
00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:49.159
<v Speaker 5>they can do. And know this, if California tries to

223
00:11:49.240 --> 00:11:52.080
<v Speaker 5>jerry mander five more districts, listen to. Texas has the

224
00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:55.919
<v Speaker 5>ability to eliminate ten Democrats in our state. We can

225
00:11:55.960 --> 00:11:58.639
<v Speaker 5>play that game more than they can because they have

226
00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:01.639
<v Speaker 5>fewer Republican districts in their states.

227
00:12:01.679 --> 00:12:04.320
<v Speaker 6>Texas Governor Greg Abbott, don't be a stranger. Thanks for

228
00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:05.440
<v Speaker 6>popping by. Really appreciate it.

229
00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:08.960
<v Speaker 1>Ideally, the district you work like this. Ideally it would

230
00:12:08.960 --> 00:12:13.360
<v Speaker 1>work along geographic bearriers, natural geographic bearers. Here's a river,

231
00:12:13.720 --> 00:12:17.159
<v Speaker 1>here's a roads, here's an area, here's an income strata,

232
00:12:17.440 --> 00:12:21.000
<v Speaker 1>here's some natural bearers. Ideally, ideally we'd be balanced out

233
00:12:21.039 --> 00:12:23.279
<v Speaker 1>that way. You'd take the population and you divide it

234
00:12:23.279 --> 00:12:25.799
<v Speaker 1>by the number of seats, and then you would fill

235
00:12:25.840 --> 00:12:29.159
<v Speaker 1>it out so that you had this equal representation. Ideally

236
00:12:29.159 --> 00:12:33.039
<v Speaker 1>that would happen. We are a fallen people in a

237
00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:36.799
<v Speaker 1>fallen worlds, and the sin issues of covening and theft

238
00:12:36.799 --> 00:12:40.600
<v Speaker 1>and lording power over others exists, which takes us right

239
00:12:40.639 --> 00:12:44.879
<v Speaker 1>back to the politico. They have been given the opportunity

240
00:12:44.919 --> 00:12:48.519
<v Speaker 1>to use words. God invented free speech, he has also

241
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:52.159
<v Speaker 1>invented accountability for it. I put the weight more on

242
00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:55.279
<v Speaker 1>the politico and the mockingbird media than the politicians, because

243
00:12:55.320 --> 00:12:59.600
<v Speaker 1>of course, politicians are going to seek to serve themselves unless,

244
00:12:59.639 --> 00:13:04.200
<v Speaker 1>of course, they repent and truly followed Jesus. Pete heg says,

245
00:13:04.480 --> 00:13:08.960
<v Speaker 1>horrific common sense. Pete Hegseth has committed one of the

246
00:13:09.039 --> 00:13:12.639
<v Speaker 1>biggest crimes you could do as a conservative, endo, Republican

247
00:13:12.720 --> 00:13:14.799
<v Speaker 1>or megatype, and that is that he has committed some

248
00:13:14.879 --> 00:13:20.399
<v Speaker 1>acts of absolutely cold, horrific common sense. He's been talking

249
00:13:20.440 --> 00:13:23.600
<v Speaker 1>about the cartels, and there was this controversy invented by

250
00:13:23.639 --> 00:13:28.159
<v Speaker 1>the media that President Trump intended to take our military

251
00:13:28.279 --> 00:13:32.000
<v Speaker 1>into areas in Mexico to go at the cartels. Now,

252
00:13:32.120 --> 00:13:34.240
<v Speaker 1>why would he think of such a thing? How insane

253
00:13:34.240 --> 00:13:37.000
<v Speaker 1>would that be? That we've invade another country. Well, let's pause,

254
00:13:37.039 --> 00:13:40.159
<v Speaker 1>and let's think about the fact that cartel members in

255
00:13:40.200 --> 00:13:43.960
<v Speaker 1>northern Mexico have crossed the American border. They've done this

256
00:13:44.039 --> 00:13:48.279
<v Speaker 1>and they've attacked American border patrol agents, custom and border patrol.

257
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:51.000
<v Speaker 1>They cross over into our country from time to time

258
00:13:51.039 --> 00:13:54.120
<v Speaker 1>on a pretty regular basis before President Trump started enforcing

259
00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:56.960
<v Speaker 1>a border, and they would bring people into our country.

260
00:13:57.399 --> 00:14:01.559
<v Speaker 1>They've in fact been caught inland. They're setting up shop

261
00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:05.159
<v Speaker 1>in cities like Los Angeles, in San Francisco and California.

262
00:14:05.399 --> 00:14:07.480
<v Speaker 1>Not just setting it up, it exists. They have supply

263
00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:12.279
<v Speaker 1>chains running supplies of drugs and human beings into those cities.

264
00:14:12.960 --> 00:14:16.120
<v Speaker 1>Sell the drugs, traffic the humans. That's an act of

265
00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:19.279
<v Speaker 1>an invasion. And the president of Mexico said that she's

266
00:14:19.320 --> 00:14:21.399
<v Speaker 1>willing to work with the United States on this, but

267
00:14:21.480 --> 00:14:23.960
<v Speaker 1>she's not going to accept American troops in her country.

268
00:14:24.600 --> 00:14:27.440
<v Speaker 1>Very well, it's a separate country. She can make that decision,

269
00:14:27.679 --> 00:14:29.919
<v Speaker 1>and we can make the decision to declare a limited

270
00:14:29.960 --> 00:14:33.279
<v Speaker 1>war against the cartels. We could also go to her

271
00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:35.240
<v Speaker 1>and say, yeah, we're actually going to come in. We're

272
00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:36.960
<v Speaker 1>going to get the cartels that are coming at us.

273
00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:39.879
<v Speaker 1>So we'll give you some plays which you can actually

274
00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:43.919
<v Speaker 1>save face say that you've exacted from us. This promises

275
00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:45.960
<v Speaker 1>what we'll do and not do. But this is how

276
00:14:45.960 --> 00:14:48.320
<v Speaker 1>Pete Hegseth was treated on this. So is he asked

277
00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:50.039
<v Speaker 1>a question about the cartels.

278
00:14:50.399 --> 00:14:52.440
<v Speaker 7>Why are you worried that now the cartels are just

279
00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:55.000
<v Speaker 7>moving everything around that they know that there's a target

280
00:14:55.000 --> 00:14:57.039
<v Speaker 7>on their back. They're just like hiding everything however they

281
00:14:57.080 --> 00:15:00.279
<v Speaker 7>do that, we're watching. We probably we know a little

282
00:15:00.279 --> 00:15:02.159
<v Speaker 7>bit more than they think we might know about them.

283
00:15:02.480 --> 00:15:04.440
<v Speaker 7>We've spent a lot of attention watching them.

284
00:15:04.679 --> 00:15:05.519
<v Speaker 1>We're focused on this.

285
00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:08.679
<v Speaker 7>It's a presidential priority, it's our priority. We're working with

286
00:15:08.759 --> 00:15:12.679
<v Speaker 7>federal partners to identify that all across the Western hemisphere.

287
00:15:12.879 --> 00:15:15.240
<v Speaker 7>This is something we're not taking lying down anymore. If

288
00:15:15.240 --> 00:15:17.720
<v Speaker 7>you're trafficking in drugs, you're trafficking in people, you're trafficking

289
00:15:17.759 --> 00:15:20.600
<v Speaker 7>in violence that affect the American people. That's unacceptable and

290
00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:22.120
<v Speaker 7>the Defense Department's going to be a part.

291
00:15:21.960 --> 00:15:24.960
<v Speaker 1>Of So President Trump is the most consequential president in

292
00:15:24.960 --> 00:15:27.080
<v Speaker 1>our history. And Laura Ingram asked that question, and it's

293
00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:29.360
<v Speaker 1>a good one. Are the catels going to move around?

294
00:15:29.799 --> 00:15:32.840
<v Speaker 1>Sure they are. They're business people and they're militarized business people.

295
00:15:32.919 --> 00:15:34.759
<v Speaker 1>So we're going to do what we can to follow them.

296
00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:38.679
<v Speaker 1>And we should be doing this. Remember the alternative to

297
00:15:38.720 --> 00:15:42.759
<v Speaker 1>this was Barack Hussin Obama letting them bring drugs into

298
00:15:42.759 --> 00:15:46.720
<v Speaker 1>our country, literally stopping indictments of them to let them

299
00:15:46.799 --> 00:15:49.559
<v Speaker 1>continue to bring drugs into our country, drugs from Afghanistan.

300
00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:52.480
<v Speaker 1>That should be a movie. One day, Project Cassanders should

301
00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:55.559
<v Speaker 1>be a movie. There's a new series that exists that

302
00:15:55.720 --> 00:15:58.600
<v Speaker 1>is not on the topic of militarization, but it's on

303
00:15:58.639 --> 00:16:03.399
<v Speaker 1>the topic of spreading God's word in a militarized surveillance society.

304
00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:06.519
<v Speaker 1>It's called Testament. This takes the Book of Acts from

305
00:16:06.519 --> 00:16:10.399
<v Speaker 1>that biblical period and transposes it into our timeframe, a

306
00:16:10.440 --> 00:16:13.519
<v Speaker 1>world that's a surveillance state and a censorship state. You

315
00:16:38.840 --> 00:16:41.919
<v Speaker 1>common sense didn't stop there, heck Seth. He was asking

316
00:16:41.960 --> 00:16:44.559
<v Speaker 1>about something that has driven me baddy since I learned

317
00:16:44.559 --> 00:16:46.759
<v Speaker 1>about it. A friend of mine is a retired Special

318
00:16:46.799 --> 00:16:49.360
<v Speaker 1>Forces operative, and he hit me to the fact that

319
00:16:49.440 --> 00:16:52.480
<v Speaker 1>the Chinese Communist Party has been purchasing land around our

320
00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:55.759
<v Speaker 1>military basis for years. They've been doing that, and they've

321
00:16:55.799 --> 00:16:58.679
<v Speaker 1>been setting up sort of shell companies, and the companies

322
00:16:58.720 --> 00:17:02.720
<v Speaker 1>all seem to have this common denominator. They're in businesses

323
00:17:02.759 --> 00:17:07.079
<v Speaker 1>like transportation that brings them onto airports from time to time,

324
00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:13.839
<v Speaker 1>transportations in biology biolabs around our military basis. Haig sas

325
00:17:13.880 --> 00:17:16.720
<v Speaker 1>With asked about this about cracking down on the Chinese

326
00:17:16.759 --> 00:17:19.960
<v Speaker 1>Communist Party being able to purchase land around our bases.

327
00:17:20.200 --> 00:17:25.839
<v Speaker 1>Again a horrific example of mega style white supremacists. Common sense.

328
00:17:26.079 --> 00:17:29.079
<v Speaker 8>I want to know who owns the land around our

329
00:17:29.119 --> 00:17:33.480
<v Speaker 8>bases and strategic bases and getting an understanding of why.

330
00:17:33.319 --> 00:17:35.680
<v Speaker 1>Foreign entities, foreign companies, foreign.

331
00:17:35.400 --> 00:17:39.440
<v Speaker 8>Individuals might be buying upland around those bases. That's something

332
00:17:39.480 --> 00:17:41.880
<v Speaker 8>I should be paying attention to on behalf of the

333
00:17:41.920 --> 00:17:45.839
<v Speaker 8>American people, on behalf of my department, and on behalf

334
00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:46.440
<v Speaker 8>of the President.

335
00:17:46.839 --> 00:17:47.839
<v Speaker 1>It's common sense.

336
00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:52.240
<v Speaker 8>And so food security, just like energy resilience, just like

337
00:17:52.279 --> 00:17:55.519
<v Speaker 8>where we get our water. That's all national security, especially

338
00:17:55.519 --> 00:17:58.200
<v Speaker 8>in a contingency. So we would be asleep at the

339
00:17:58.240 --> 00:18:00.799
<v Speaker 8>wheel if we were not fully a party to an

340
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:04.279
<v Speaker 8>effort like this to ensure that our nation had the

341
00:18:04.279 --> 00:18:07.839
<v Speaker 8>food supply it needs, but specifically our troops have what

342
00:18:07.880 --> 00:18:10.799
<v Speaker 8>they need on our basis, so that in those moments

343
00:18:10.960 --> 00:18:13.640
<v Speaker 8>you can rely on us here in the United.

344
00:18:13.440 --> 00:18:14.920
<v Speaker 1>States to provide that security.

345
00:18:15.119 --> 00:18:18.920
<v Speaker 8>So no longer can foreign adversaries assume we're not watching

346
00:18:19.559 --> 00:18:22.240
<v Speaker 8>and we're not paying attention and we're not doing something

347
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:23.240
<v Speaker 8>about it, because we are.

348
00:18:23.240 --> 00:18:27.319
<v Speaker 1>That Pete Hagsath with the Department of Defense is talking

349
00:18:27.359 --> 00:18:30.160
<v Speaker 1>here about to sect def he's talking about food security.

350
00:18:30.200 --> 00:18:32.839
<v Speaker 1>Why well, he was speaking at a Department of Agriculture events.

351
00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:37.400
<v Speaker 1>Why because finally there's someone at the Department of Defense

352
00:18:37.400 --> 00:18:41.240
<v Speaker 1>who understands that food security is national security. It's not

353
00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:44.559
<v Speaker 1>just military bases where the Chinese Communist Party's been buying

354
00:18:44.599 --> 00:18:47.960
<v Speaker 1>up land. They've been buying up our farms. And when

355
00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:49.920
<v Speaker 1>they buy up our farms, they buy up the water

356
00:18:50.039 --> 00:18:52.960
<v Speaker 1>rights to the farms. And it is very ironic to

357
00:18:53.000 --> 00:18:56.240
<v Speaker 1>have Christy Noan back there nodding her head. Christi Noom,

358
00:18:56.279 --> 00:18:59.119
<v Speaker 1>who sold out her state of South Dakota to allow

359
00:18:59.279 --> 00:19:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Chinese back to entities, Chinese Commist Party back entities to

360
00:19:02.880 --> 00:19:05.440
<v Speaker 1>steal farmland or try to steal it in South Dakota.

361
00:19:05.599 --> 00:19:09.279
<v Speaker 1>Praise God for Pete Heegsas's common sense. How much did

362
00:19:09.359 --> 00:19:15.319
<v Speaker 1>George So's pay for the Elka Lutheran Church? I asked

363
00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:17.880
<v Speaker 1>that question from time to time as I'm looking at

364
00:19:17.880 --> 00:19:21.680
<v Speaker 1>the Lutheran Elco Church Elqua Lutheran Church, which is did

365
00:19:21.680 --> 00:19:25.200
<v Speaker 1>George Sos just buy this thing out? I've been studying

366
00:19:25.240 --> 00:19:28.240
<v Speaker 1>some documents a dear friend of mine gaming, and they

367
00:19:28.240 --> 00:19:32.559
<v Speaker 1>are excuses for or explanations for why the Elko Lutheran

368
00:19:32.640 --> 00:19:35.599
<v Speaker 1>Church has come to the conclusion that the only way

369
00:19:35.799 --> 00:19:39.359
<v Speaker 1>that you can be a Christian is to affirm same

370
00:19:39.480 --> 00:19:44.480
<v Speaker 1>sex attraction and same sex activity. And sadly, this is

371
00:19:44.519 --> 00:19:47.519
<v Speaker 1>so easy to look at from a perspective of Jesus,

372
00:19:47.839 --> 00:19:50.240
<v Speaker 1>and so easy to show that you simply cannot make

373
00:19:50.240 --> 00:19:53.440
<v Speaker 1>this argument. And I'm reading these documents and they have

374
00:19:53.519 --> 00:19:57.920
<v Speaker 1>some things in common. They're very often Christian philosophers or

375
00:19:57.960 --> 00:20:03.359
<v Speaker 1>theologians quoting Christian philosophers or theologians, so they're spending a

376
00:20:03.359 --> 00:20:06.720
<v Speaker 1>lot of time quoting one another, and they're asking questions

377
00:20:06.799 --> 00:20:11.240
<v Speaker 1>along these lines. When the Bible addresses in the New

378
00:20:11.279 --> 00:20:15.039
<v Speaker 1>Testament same sex activity, are they talking about the loving

379
00:20:15.119 --> 00:20:18.440
<v Speaker 1>form of same sex activity. Let's say two people very

380
00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:22.720
<v Speaker 1>much in love who treat each other very respectfully, and

381
00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:25.160
<v Speaker 1>let's say even come under and lift one another up.

382
00:20:26.480 --> 00:20:28.200
<v Speaker 1>Is that what they're talking about or are they talking

383
00:20:28.200 --> 00:20:33.359
<v Speaker 1>about power differentials? For instance, there was a tradition in

384
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:38.200
<v Speaker 1>Rome where men would kind of adopt boys and then

385
00:20:38.519 --> 00:20:42.039
<v Speaker 1>use them sexually, and eventually those boys would grow up

386
00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:44.079
<v Speaker 1>and they would turn around and do that to other boys.

387
00:20:44.640 --> 00:20:47.400
<v Speaker 1>There was in fact, an entire army legion. It was

388
00:20:47.440 --> 00:20:50.440
<v Speaker 1>so I think three hundred soldiers, and they were men

389
00:20:50.759 --> 00:20:53.480
<v Speaker 1>who had sex with men. And there was also a

390
00:20:53.519 --> 00:20:56.240
<v Speaker 1>tradition in Rome that there was a view that male

391
00:20:56.359 --> 00:21:00.680
<v Speaker 1>on male sexual activity wasn't just as good as that

392
00:21:00.799 --> 00:21:03.960
<v Speaker 1>with women, it was superior to it. That male on

393
00:21:04.119 --> 00:21:07.319
<v Speaker 1>male quote love was superior to male on female love.

394
00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:10.400
<v Speaker 1>And this was a belief. So a lot of these

395
00:21:10.440 --> 00:21:13.200
<v Speaker 1>philosophers will ask those questions, are they talking about that

396
00:21:13.319 --> 00:21:17.759
<v Speaker 1>kind of power differential older man, younger boy? Are they

397
00:21:17.799 --> 00:21:21.519
<v Speaker 1>talking about violent sexual activity? Are you talking about sexual

398
00:21:21.559 --> 00:21:24.680
<v Speaker 1>activity done by force? And they spent a lot of

399
00:21:24.680 --> 00:21:27.119
<v Speaker 1>time ruminating on this, and their contention is that that

400
00:21:27.240 --> 00:21:30.240
<v Speaker 1>was what Apostle Paul meant. Is he meant that form

401
00:21:30.279 --> 00:21:32.960
<v Speaker 1>of sexuality. And so they'll go and then they'll talk

402
00:21:32.960 --> 00:21:35.759
<v Speaker 1>about some very very strange things, and they'll try to

403
00:21:35.799 --> 00:21:38.920
<v Speaker 1>relate them to the topic at hand, which is same

404
00:21:38.960 --> 00:21:44.039
<v Speaker 1>sex activity. They'll talk about Peter meeting a centurion, having

405
00:21:44.079 --> 00:21:47.279
<v Speaker 1>his mind change about the centurion. Peter having this dream,

406
00:21:47.640 --> 00:21:49.839
<v Speaker 1>you know, I've never eaten food that's been defiled, etc.

407
00:21:50.160 --> 00:21:52.759
<v Speaker 1>And he's given three choices in this dream, and then

408
00:21:52.799 --> 00:21:55.279
<v Speaker 1>one of his choices is to accept that this centurion,

409
00:21:55.359 --> 00:21:58.039
<v Speaker 1>while he is a pagan, while he's a Roman, is

410
00:21:58.079 --> 00:22:01.359
<v Speaker 1>also a man of decent moral character. And they're making

411
00:22:01.400 --> 00:22:06.240
<v Speaker 1>the contention here that Peter had his mind changed about somebody.

412
00:22:06.319 --> 00:22:09.799
<v Speaker 1>He had his mind change about morality. They'll do this

413
00:22:10.039 --> 00:22:13.400
<v Speaker 1>very very often with Jesus. When Jesus spoke to a

414
00:22:13.480 --> 00:22:18.039
<v Speaker 1>woman and he referenced scraps from the table, and this

415
00:22:18.079 --> 00:22:21.119
<v Speaker 1>woman said, well, even even the dogs get the scraps

416
00:22:21.119 --> 00:22:23.759
<v Speaker 1>from the master's table, and so Jesus agreed to share

417
00:22:23.759 --> 00:22:26.359
<v Speaker 1>with her. They say that that was Jesus having his

418
00:22:26.440 --> 00:22:30.039
<v Speaker 1>mind changed. It wasn't Jesus having his mind change. It

419
00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:35.079
<v Speaker 1>was Jesus allowing the people around him to see what

420
00:22:35.160 --> 00:22:38.440
<v Speaker 1>he meant by grace, and see what he meant by love,

421
00:22:38.799 --> 00:22:42.000
<v Speaker 1>and see what he meant by acts of sacrifice. He

422
00:22:42.200 --> 00:22:46.680
<v Speaker 1>was teaching by interacting and allowing that woman to ask

423
00:22:46.720 --> 00:22:50.119
<v Speaker 1>his questions, knowing they would be asked. So to take

424
00:22:50.200 --> 00:22:53.799
<v Speaker 1>things like this and say Jesus changed his mind, Therefore

425
00:22:54.000 --> 00:22:57.359
<v Speaker 1>God can change his mind about things like human sexuality.

426
00:22:57.400 --> 00:23:02.240
<v Speaker 1>These papers are philosophers and theologians referencing philosophers and theologians.

427
00:23:02.640 --> 00:23:06.440
<v Speaker 1>When it mentions Scripture, it is in passing and it

428
00:23:06.480 --> 00:23:10.000
<v Speaker 1>is very very often missing out on the easiest way

429
00:23:10.039 --> 00:23:12.000
<v Speaker 1>to address this. And I remember this is the Elka

430
00:23:12.200 --> 00:23:17.279
<v Speaker 1>Lutheran Church. Martin Luther King was a person. Martin Luther

431
00:23:17.359 --> 00:23:20.119
<v Speaker 1>King founded this church because he had a frustration with

432
00:23:20.240 --> 00:23:25.200
<v Speaker 1>Rome and the Catholic Church, and very famously he nailed

433
00:23:25.240 --> 00:23:27.319
<v Speaker 1>a list of grievances to the door of the Catholic

434
00:23:27.440 --> 00:23:31.640
<v Speaker 1>Church because he wanted those addressed. So, knowing that he

435
00:23:31.720 --> 00:23:33.920
<v Speaker 1>was a real person, you could do something like say,

436
00:23:34.000 --> 00:23:37.039
<v Speaker 1>go back in history and look at his personal relationships.

437
00:23:37.400 --> 00:23:39.359
<v Speaker 1>Then this is really hard work. I understand that they

438
00:23:39.359 --> 00:23:42.599
<v Speaker 1>can't do this, these theologians, because it's very difficult work

439
00:23:42.599 --> 00:23:44.759
<v Speaker 1>and they're very busy quoting one another. But I went

440
00:23:44.799 --> 00:23:52.079
<v Speaker 1>to this device called oh gosh, oh, it's Google, and

441
00:23:52.359 --> 00:23:56.119
<v Speaker 1>I looked up the phrase Martin Luther marriage and it

442
00:23:56.160 --> 00:23:58.599
<v Speaker 1>came up with this name Catherine and von Bora Luther.

443
00:23:59.640 --> 00:24:01.640
<v Speaker 1>Nine of the twelve nuns, and this is Martin Luther

444
00:24:01.720 --> 00:24:06.000
<v Speaker 1>King Martin. Martin Luther had these nuns delivered to him,

445
00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:08.480
<v Speaker 1>delivered as if they were trafficked. They love Google. Nine

446
00:24:08.480 --> 00:24:10.920
<v Speaker 1>of the twelve LUNs were delivered to Luther Martin Luther's

447
00:24:10.960 --> 00:24:14.519
<v Speaker 1>care in Wittenberg, and one was Catherine von Bora, who

448
00:24:14.559 --> 00:24:17.440
<v Speaker 1>two years later, in fifteen twenty five, would become his wife.

449
00:24:18.079 --> 00:24:21.200
<v Speaker 1>The Luther von Berra marriage, which did not begin as

450
00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:24.559
<v Speaker 1>love match, went on to become one of history's celebrated

451
00:24:24.599 --> 00:24:28.480
<v Speaker 1>and happy, loving marriages. True, it didn't start that way.

452
00:24:28.519 --> 00:24:31.160
<v Speaker 1>In fact, Martin Luther famously said he didn't find his

453
00:24:31.240 --> 00:24:35.680
<v Speaker 1>then wife attractive, but then changed as he grew to

454
00:24:35.720 --> 00:24:38.400
<v Speaker 1>know her as a person, and as God's work took

455
00:24:38.400 --> 00:24:41.119
<v Speaker 1>its path and changed his heart and how he felt

456
00:24:41.119 --> 00:24:44.519
<v Speaker 1>about his wife. I also asked the Google machine more

457
00:24:44.519 --> 00:24:47.559
<v Speaker 1>information about this. Who did Martin Luther marry and why?

458
00:24:48.480 --> 00:24:51.279
<v Speaker 1>The basis of Martin Luther's decision to marry Catherine von

459
00:24:51.319 --> 00:24:54.599
<v Speaker 1>Borah on thirteen June fifteen twenty five stem from his

460
00:24:54.640 --> 00:24:58.279
<v Speaker 1>public theological position that unless one were a particular exception,

461
00:24:58.640 --> 00:25:02.079
<v Speaker 1>all men should marry. Whatever is a man must have

462
00:25:02.079 --> 00:25:03.960
<v Speaker 1>a woman, and whatever is a woman must have a man.

463
00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:08.119
<v Speaker 1>Martin Luther spoke of these things. Now, he had nailed

464
00:25:08.119 --> 00:25:11.480
<v Speaker 1>to the door of the Catholic Church some grievances. He

465
00:25:11.559 --> 00:25:13.599
<v Speaker 1>had all the ability in the world to make one

466
00:25:13.640 --> 00:25:17.519
<v Speaker 1>of those grievances. Wait, wait, wait, why are you teaching

467
00:25:17.519 --> 00:25:21.960
<v Speaker 1>that same sex activity is wrong? After all, Paul was

468
00:25:21.960 --> 00:25:25.759
<v Speaker 1>talking about the violent form of same sex activity. Paul

469
00:25:25.880 --> 00:25:28.799
<v Speaker 1>was talking about the sort of same sex activity that

470
00:25:28.839 --> 00:25:32.359
<v Speaker 1>takes advantage of weakness. As you treat the least of these,

471
00:25:32.400 --> 00:25:35.359
<v Speaker 1>so you treat me. He had all the time in

472
00:25:35.400 --> 00:25:37.519
<v Speaker 1>the world to do that, to add just one bullet

473
00:25:38.200 --> 00:25:43.200
<v Speaker 1>item to his list of grievances. He didn't. The paper

474
00:25:43.319 --> 00:25:45.519
<v Speaker 1>is that these people are writing, and I've got about

475
00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:48.200
<v Speaker 1>twelve of them I'm reading. They don't mend s Luther.

476
00:25:49.079 --> 00:25:51.880
<v Speaker 1>They don't mention his marriage, they don't mention that it

477
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:55.559
<v Speaker 1>was to a woman. They do not mention the easiest

478
00:25:55.599 --> 00:25:59.359
<v Speaker 1>way to follow Jesus Christ thinking on this, which is

479
00:25:59.359 --> 00:26:04.279
<v Speaker 1>the things Jesus said and didn't say. In Matthew five,

480
00:26:04.359 --> 00:26:07.559
<v Speaker 1>verses twenty seven through twenty nine, the Sermon on the Mount,

481
00:26:07.960 --> 00:26:11.839
<v Speaker 1>Jesus says this, You've heard that it was said, do

482
00:26:11.920 --> 00:26:16.559
<v Speaker 1>not commit adultery. Let's pause. You've heard that it was said,

483
00:26:16.720 --> 00:26:20.720
<v Speaker 1>do not have sexual relations with a woman not your wife,

484
00:26:20.759 --> 00:26:23.119
<v Speaker 1>if you're a married man, or the reverse, if you're

485
00:26:23.119 --> 00:26:26.000
<v Speaker 1>a woman. You've heard it said, do not commit adultery.

486
00:26:26.039 --> 00:26:29.559
<v Speaker 1>That's what it meant. And then Jesus said, but I

487
00:26:29.759 --> 00:26:33.039
<v Speaker 1>say to you that everyone who looks at a woman

488
00:26:33.160 --> 00:26:36.240
<v Speaker 1>to lust for her has already committed adultery with her

489
00:26:36.400 --> 00:26:39.480
<v Speaker 1>in his heart. And if your right eye causes you

490
00:26:39.559 --> 00:26:41.400
<v Speaker 1>to sin, tear it out and throw it from you,

491
00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:43.359
<v Speaker 1>for it is better for you that one of your

492
00:26:43.359 --> 00:26:46.039
<v Speaker 1>members be destroyed than your whole body be thrown into hell.

493
00:26:47.000 --> 00:26:49.359
<v Speaker 1>Now is Jesus truly saying, scoop out your eyes and

494
00:26:49.400 --> 00:26:52.279
<v Speaker 1>throw them away. No, he is making a dramatic statement

495
00:26:52.440 --> 00:26:55.400
<v Speaker 1>about what would happen to you if you didn't succeed

496
00:26:55.480 --> 00:26:58.720
<v Speaker 1>in conquering the eye that is giving that to the Lord,

497
00:26:59.079 --> 00:27:01.319
<v Speaker 1>that is letting the whole spirit changed you when people

498
00:27:01.319 --> 00:27:03.319
<v Speaker 1>were left with the Holy Spirit. After Jesus went back

499
00:27:03.359 --> 00:27:05.680
<v Speaker 1>to heaven. But let's go back to the Bible verse.

500
00:27:06.880 --> 00:27:11.000
<v Speaker 1>What was he doing here? Functionally, Jesus was raising the

501
00:27:11.000 --> 00:27:14.559
<v Speaker 1>bar at this point. You could be a good pharisee,

502
00:27:15.079 --> 00:27:17.279
<v Speaker 1>You could be a good statasty, You could be following

503
00:27:17.319 --> 00:27:20.240
<v Speaker 1>the law as you sat there looking at some young

504
00:27:20.279 --> 00:27:24.839
<v Speaker 1>woman and absolutely lusting, thinking of all the things you

505
00:27:24.880 --> 00:27:28.480
<v Speaker 1>want to do sexually, and you could have this this

506
00:27:28.759 --> 00:27:32.359
<v Speaker 1>imagination life, and there was no sin. You could go

507
00:27:32.400 --> 00:27:36.119
<v Speaker 1>in good conscience to the temple. I live by the law.

508
00:27:36.279 --> 00:27:36.640
<v Speaker 3>I am the.

509
00:27:37.720 --> 00:27:40.599
<v Speaker 1>Personification of living by the law. When you had committed

510
00:27:40.599 --> 00:27:44.680
<v Speaker 1>the sin in your mind. Jesus raised the bar for

511
00:27:44.799 --> 00:27:49.039
<v Speaker 1>what sexual sin meant. He made it harder to not sin.

512
00:27:50.200 --> 00:27:53.440
<v Speaker 1>He also explained in this that of course sin begins

513
00:27:53.519 --> 00:27:57.839
<v Speaker 1>as an idea, a notion, and then it becomes a temptation,

514
00:27:58.319 --> 00:28:01.279
<v Speaker 1>and then that temptation can manifest, and Satan knows how

515
00:28:01.319 --> 00:28:04.200
<v Speaker 1>we're tempted, and he'll put us in positions, or will

516
00:28:04.240 --> 00:28:07.319
<v Speaker 1>allow ourselves to be put in positions where you're obviously

517
00:28:07.359 --> 00:28:10.440
<v Speaker 1>going to be tempted. Satan just waits for those moments.

518
00:28:12.000 --> 00:28:16.240
<v Speaker 1>In Matthew nineteen, verses one through nine, we read this.

519
00:28:17.440 --> 00:28:19.759
<v Speaker 1>When Jesus had finished saying these things, he left Galilee

520
00:28:19.839 --> 00:28:21.599
<v Speaker 1>and winded to the region of Judea, to the other

521
00:28:21.640 --> 00:28:24.480
<v Speaker 1>side of the Georgian Jordan. Large crowds followed him, and

522
00:28:24.480 --> 00:28:27.799
<v Speaker 1>he healed them. There some pharisees came to test him.

523
00:28:27.839 --> 00:28:30.240
<v Speaker 1>They said, is it lawful for a man to divorce

524
00:28:30.279 --> 00:28:33.640
<v Speaker 1>his wife for any and every reason? Haven't you read?

525
00:28:33.960 --> 00:28:37.039
<v Speaker 1>He replied that at the beginning, the Creator made them

526
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:40.160
<v Speaker 1>male and female, and said, for this reason, a man

527
00:28:40.319 --> 00:28:42.599
<v Speaker 1>will leave his father and mother and be united to

528
00:28:42.640 --> 00:28:45.880
<v Speaker 1>his wife, and the two will become one flesh. They

529
00:28:45.920 --> 00:28:48.839
<v Speaker 1>are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God

530
00:28:48.880 --> 00:28:52.279
<v Speaker 1>has joined together, let no one separate. Why, then, they asked,

531
00:28:52.880 --> 00:28:54.880
<v Speaker 1>did Moses command that a man give his wife a

532
00:28:54.880 --> 00:28:58.960
<v Speaker 1>certificate divorce and send her away? Jesus replied, Moses permitted

533
00:28:59.000 --> 00:29:01.200
<v Speaker 1>you to divorce your wife's because your hearts were hard.

534
00:29:01.519 --> 00:29:03.640
<v Speaker 1>But it was not this way from the beginning. I

535
00:29:03.720 --> 00:29:06.079
<v Speaker 1>tell you that anyone who dorises his wife, except for

536
00:29:06.160 --> 00:29:11.279
<v Speaker 1>sexual immorality, marries another woman and commits adultery. Let's pause here.

537
00:29:12.119 --> 00:29:16.240
<v Speaker 1>What did he do? He raised the bar for divorce.

538
00:29:18.119 --> 00:29:20.480
<v Speaker 1>You were divorcing your wives because your hearts were hard.

539
00:29:21.119 --> 00:29:25.839
<v Speaker 1>I tell you that in less it's for adultery or

540
00:29:25.920 --> 00:29:29.519
<v Speaker 1>sexual morality. And you go marry another woman, you have

541
00:29:29.799 --> 00:29:31.960
<v Speaker 1>committed adultery. And by the way, later in the Bible,

542
00:29:32.039 --> 00:29:35.359
<v Speaker 1>he says, you've caused a woman to commit adultery. He's

543
00:29:35.440 --> 00:29:39.839
<v Speaker 1>raising the bar again, and he's respecting marriage as designed

544
00:29:40.000 --> 00:29:43.759
<v Speaker 1>by God, the Father, the creator made them male and female.

545
00:29:43.880 --> 00:29:49.319
<v Speaker 1>For this reason, a person will leave his family and

546
00:29:49.400 --> 00:29:53.640
<v Speaker 1>be united to another person. This is the way Elka

547
00:29:53.720 --> 00:29:58.440
<v Speaker 1>is leaning. They want to remove gender specific statements like

548
00:29:58.480 --> 00:30:02.519
<v Speaker 1>this so that they can ten Jesus Christ wasn't good

549
00:30:02.559 --> 00:30:07.000
<v Speaker 1>with words. That Jesus was limited in his words. So

550
00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:10.400
<v Speaker 1>Jesus here reaffirms marriage. He reaffirms it as between a

551
00:30:10.440 --> 00:30:13.640
<v Speaker 1>man and a woman. Jesus had earlier in the scripture

552
00:30:13.680 --> 00:30:17.680
<v Speaker 1>we shared earlier, had raised the bar for what qualifies

553
00:30:17.759 --> 00:30:22.119
<v Speaker 1>this adultery. Now he's doubling down on marriage. But did

554
00:30:22.200 --> 00:30:25.599
<v Speaker 1>Jesus ever change anything? I mean, he came to fulfill

555
00:30:25.680 --> 00:30:29.759
<v Speaker 1>the law, not to destroy the law. So did he

556
00:30:29.799 --> 00:30:34.079
<v Speaker 1>ever change anything? This is from Matthew Chapter fifteen, verses

557
00:30:34.079 --> 00:30:37.640
<v Speaker 1>ten through twenty. Jesus called the crowd to him and said,

558
00:30:37.839 --> 00:30:42.079
<v Speaker 1>listen and understand. What goes into someone's mouth does not

559
00:30:42.200 --> 00:30:44.880
<v Speaker 1>defile them, but what comes out of their mouth that

560
00:30:44.960 --> 00:30:47.759
<v Speaker 1>is what defiles them. Then the disciples came to him

561
00:30:47.799 --> 00:30:50.160
<v Speaker 1>and asked, do you know that the Pharisees were offended

562
00:30:50.160 --> 00:30:53.680
<v Speaker 1>when they heard this. Jesus replied, every plant that my

563
00:30:53.720 --> 00:30:56.440
<v Speaker 1>heavenly Father has not planted will be pulled up by

564
00:30:56.480 --> 00:30:59.200
<v Speaker 1>the roots. Leave them. They are blind guides. If the

565
00:30:59.200 --> 00:31:01.599
<v Speaker 1>blind lead the blind, and both will fall into a pit.

566
00:31:01.680 --> 00:31:05.160
<v Speaker 1>Peter said, explain that parable to us. I love this

567
00:31:05.200 --> 00:31:09.319
<v Speaker 1>with Jesus. Are you still so dull? Jesus asked them,

568
00:31:09.799 --> 00:31:12.319
<v Speaker 1>don't you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into

569
00:31:12.359 --> 00:31:14.880
<v Speaker 1>the stomach and then out of the body. But the

570
00:31:14.920 --> 00:31:16.799
<v Speaker 1>things that come out of the mouth of a person,

571
00:31:16.880 --> 00:31:18.799
<v Speaker 1>or come out of a person's mouth, come from the heart,

572
00:31:18.920 --> 00:31:21.559
<v Speaker 1>and these defile them. For out of the heart comes

573
00:31:21.599 --> 00:31:30.559
<v Speaker 1>evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false testimony, slender

574
00:31:30.880 --> 00:31:34.200
<v Speaker 1>these are what defile a person. But eating with unwashed

575
00:31:34.200 --> 00:31:37.160
<v Speaker 1>hands does not defile them. That's the God of the

576
00:31:37.240 --> 00:31:43.319
<v Speaker 1>universe speaking against a Pharisean tradition demands that you always

577
00:31:43.440 --> 00:31:45.920
<v Speaker 1>washed it. Everything needs to be clean, not just ritually clean.

578
00:31:46.559 --> 00:31:50.200
<v Speaker 1>Jesus is making a very important statement here, for out

579
00:31:50.319 --> 00:31:56.559
<v Speaker 1>of their heart comes evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft,

580
00:31:56.680 --> 00:32:01.480
<v Speaker 1>false testimony, and slander. Adultery comes from the month. And

581
00:32:01.599 --> 00:32:06.400
<v Speaker 1>what is adultery according to Jesus, it is having sexual

582
00:32:06.440 --> 00:32:09.640
<v Speaker 1>relations with someone to whom you're not married, if you're

583
00:32:09.640 --> 00:32:13.000
<v Speaker 1>a married person, and we can apply the same set

584
00:32:13.119 --> 00:32:15.839
<v Speaker 1>of guidelines and rules to fornication. I think it was

585
00:32:15.880 --> 00:32:18.720
<v Speaker 1>a very very masculine thing that my friend Tim Krukshank did,

586
00:32:18.720 --> 00:32:21.839
<v Speaker 1>the founder and CEO of Bone Frog Coffee, where he

587
00:32:21.920 --> 00:32:24.279
<v Speaker 1>decided to dedicate to the second part of his life

588
00:32:24.279 --> 00:32:26.640
<v Speaker 1>to keeping his wife Liz alive for as long as

589
00:32:26.640 --> 00:32:30.039
<v Speaker 1>they possibly could. She was dying of cancer and Tim,

590
00:32:30.119 --> 00:32:32.400
<v Speaker 1>being a physician's assistance and he was a medic when

591
00:32:32.400 --> 00:32:35.160
<v Speaker 1>he was with the Sales Seal Teams, did three deployments

592
00:32:35.200 --> 00:32:37.480
<v Speaker 1>on our behalf as a medica attached to the seal Teams.

593
00:32:37.960 --> 00:32:40.160
<v Speaker 1>He spent the last twenty years of his life keeping

594
00:32:40.200 --> 00:32:43.039
<v Speaker 1>Liz alive longer than the doctors ever thought could happen.

595
00:32:43.279 --> 00:32:45.799
<v Speaker 1>I think that's very masculine. I also think it's a

596
00:32:45.839 --> 00:32:48.599
<v Speaker 1>masculine thing to start a company against all odds. Tim

597
00:32:48.640 --> 00:32:51.000
<v Speaker 1>didn't understand coffee. He just knew it saved his life

598
00:32:51.039 --> 00:32:53.960
<v Speaker 1>when he was out there getting shot at and blowed up.

599
00:32:54.720 --> 00:32:56.640
<v Speaker 1>So he came back and he started bone Frog Coffee.

600
00:32:56.640 --> 00:32:58.599
<v Speaker 1>And I think it's very masculine that he chose the

601
00:32:58.680 --> 00:33:01.480
<v Speaker 1>name bone Frog and the insignia bone Frog because it

602
00:33:01.519 --> 00:33:05.319
<v Speaker 1>stands for fallen Navy Seals, because Tim lost brothers obviously

603
00:33:05.359 --> 00:33:08.680
<v Speaker 1>in war. And I think the coffee itself is masculine.

604
00:33:09.319 --> 00:33:11.799
<v Speaker 1>It's masculine in the bag and God Country team on it.

605
00:33:11.839 --> 00:33:14.279
<v Speaker 1>But the funny thing, my wife loves the coffee, my

606
00:33:14.440 --> 00:33:16.359
<v Speaker 1>daughter loves the coffee. I've yet to meet someone who

607
00:33:16.359 --> 00:33:18.880
<v Speaker 1>doesn't love the coffee. That's because Tim did something else

608
00:33:18.920 --> 00:33:21.279
<v Speaker 1>that I think is masculine. He brought on a mentor,

609
00:33:21.839 --> 00:33:25.519
<v Speaker 1>and Dave Stewart started Seattle's Best Coffee. He mentors team

610
00:33:25.920 --> 00:33:28.559
<v Speaker 1>Tim and in fact make some of the roast himself.

615
00:33:39.240 --> 00:33:42.400
<v Speaker 1>to the Lutheran Church and what they're doing Elka Lutheran Church,

616
00:33:42.960 --> 00:33:47.240
<v Speaker 1>they have philosophers quoting philosophers and theologians quoting theologians, and

617
00:33:47.240 --> 00:33:49.799
<v Speaker 1>they're asking this question of well, what sort of same

618
00:33:49.839 --> 00:33:53.400
<v Speaker 1>sex activity, what sort of same sex activity the apostle

619
00:33:53.440 --> 00:33:55.839
<v Speaker 1>Paul guard against? And it wasn't just Paul, but they

620
00:33:55.839 --> 00:33:59.720
<v Speaker 1>focus on him because Paul was of course the apostle

621
00:34:00.119 --> 00:34:04.440
<v Speaker 1>to the Romans, to the Pagans, so he was out

622
00:34:04.480 --> 00:34:07.680
<v Speaker 1>talking to people who practice these things openly, so he

623
00:34:07.839 --> 00:34:13.400
<v Speaker 1>spoke more about it. They were loving relationships, then there

624
00:34:13.400 --> 00:34:16.039
<v Speaker 1>were men who loved men and had sex with men.

625
00:34:16.519 --> 00:34:18.480
<v Speaker 1>Paul could have made that exception. And you know what

626
00:34:18.599 --> 00:34:22.920
<v Speaker 1>Jesus could have done, just as he said here, it's

627
00:34:22.960 --> 00:34:25.880
<v Speaker 1>not that goes in, what goes in the mouth that

628
00:34:25.880 --> 00:34:28.920
<v Speaker 1>defiles a person that, but what comes out that's him

629
00:34:29.119 --> 00:34:33.599
<v Speaker 1>changing something the Pharisees were doing. He also could have said,

630
00:34:35.639 --> 00:34:41.199
<v Speaker 1>a person leaves their family and joins with another person

631
00:34:41.880 --> 00:34:44.239
<v Speaker 1>and they come, they come one flesh. He could have

632
00:34:44.280 --> 00:34:49.599
<v Speaker 1>taught that. Did he the things that Jesus taught Matthew

633
00:34:49.760 --> 00:34:53.039
<v Speaker 1>and the other disciples took pains to write down. And

634
00:34:53.079 --> 00:34:55.800
<v Speaker 1>of course Jesus has told us that the world will

635
00:34:55.840 --> 00:34:58.280
<v Speaker 1>pass away, but not one word of his will pass away.

636
00:34:58.519 --> 00:35:01.360
<v Speaker 1>And it can't because he is is the Word. The

637
00:35:01.400 --> 00:35:03.599
<v Speaker 1>word is with God, and the Word was God. He

638
00:35:03.920 --> 00:35:06.239
<v Speaker 1>is the Truth. Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth,

639
00:35:06.239 --> 00:35:07.960
<v Speaker 1>and the life. And no one gets to the Father

640
00:35:08.039 --> 00:35:11.639
<v Speaker 1>but through him. The pretense of Elka is this. As

641
00:35:11.679 --> 00:35:16.039
<v Speaker 1>I'm reading all of these papers, we in our conversations

642
00:35:16.039 --> 00:35:21.519
<v Speaker 1>with ourselves, are talking ourselves into finding something that can

643
00:35:21.559 --> 00:35:25.360
<v Speaker 1>only be supported when you ignore that chain of evidence.

644
00:35:26.159 --> 00:35:28.719
<v Speaker 1>So they go back and they say, well, the levitical

645
00:35:28.800 --> 00:35:31.440
<v Speaker 1>law said a whole bunch of things were horrible. The

646
00:35:31.519 --> 00:35:34.079
<v Speaker 1>lilibical law said things like do not clip your hair

647
00:35:34.119 --> 00:35:36.199
<v Speaker 1>at the side of the temple. We don't do these

648
00:35:36.199 --> 00:35:39.079
<v Speaker 1>things anymore. They go and say things like, Jesus changed

649
00:35:39.079 --> 00:35:42.559
<v Speaker 1>his mind. Even the dogs get to eat scraps from

650
00:35:42.559 --> 00:35:45.360
<v Speaker 1>the master's table, Jesus changed his mind. They'll say things

651
00:35:45.400 --> 00:35:47.440
<v Speaker 1>like that that are not supported by who Jesus was

652
00:35:47.679 --> 00:35:50.880
<v Speaker 1>or how he taught. They go and say things like

653
00:35:51.480 --> 00:35:54.719
<v Speaker 1>Jesus did not go and scream at the woman who

654
00:35:54.760 --> 00:35:58.199
<v Speaker 1>had committed adultery, he said that he himself did not

655
00:35:58.320 --> 00:36:03.039
<v Speaker 1>judge her to leave out that very important part. Go

656
00:36:03.840 --> 00:36:09.599
<v Speaker 1>and sin no more. Jesus Christ was intentional in everything

657
00:36:09.679 --> 00:36:14.280
<v Speaker 1>he did. He picked twelve disciples for the twelve tribes

658
00:36:14.320 --> 00:36:18.000
<v Speaker 1>of Israel. When he picked the twelve, he took three

659
00:36:18.039 --> 00:36:21.320
<v Speaker 1>aside and treated them especially closely because they were going

660
00:36:21.360 --> 00:36:24.039
<v Speaker 1>to the leaders of his church. And then he took

661
00:36:24.119 --> 00:36:27.800
<v Speaker 1>one Peter and made him the early leader of the church.

662
00:36:28.559 --> 00:36:31.239
<v Speaker 1>And he became the leader of the apostles in Christ's stead.

663
00:36:31.480 --> 00:36:35.880
<v Speaker 1>But not before they saw him stumble. Everyone saw Peter

664
00:36:36.000 --> 00:36:40.480
<v Speaker 1>deny Christ. Most importantly, Peter saw Peter deny Christ, and

665
00:36:40.599 --> 00:36:44.239
<v Speaker 1>Jesus forgave him and took him back. Jesus was intentional

666
00:36:44.280 --> 00:36:48.079
<v Speaker 1>about everything. Had Jesus Christ intended to come along and say,

667
00:36:48.440 --> 00:36:51.480
<v Speaker 1>you know what, same sex activity and same sex marriage

668
00:36:51.519 --> 00:36:54.559
<v Speaker 1>is aokay, he would have done it. So I continue

669
00:36:54.599 --> 00:36:57.239
<v Speaker 1>to ask, did George Charles buy out the Elka Lutheran

670
00:36:57.320 --> 00:36:57.599
<v Speaker 1>Church
