You know, I was talking 14 00:01:04,359 --> 00:01:08,319 the other day about what Angel Studios is doing in Hollywood, 15 00:01:08,719 --> 00:01:11,760 and yep, yep, their partner.

So yes, their partner 24 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:40,159 Angel dot Com, slash Todd that's where sign up. And 25 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:44,959 of all the things they've done, Sound of Freedom, King 26 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,359 of Kings, bringing back some of the most beautiful and 27 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,480 faith and family friendly shows that existed now there on 28 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:58,079 the streaming platform, democratizing Hollywood. I thought for sure everybody 29 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:01,280 would be on my side in this one, and sometimes 30 00:02:01,319 --> 00:02:06,680 Conservatives we are our biggest enemies. Christians are our biggest enemies. 31 00:02:07,879 --> 00:02:10,400 And I've heard people say, oh, well, you know the Chosen. 32 00:02:10,439 --> 00:02:13,599 I had some theological differences to that, and Angel Studios 33 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,199 is connected with that, and therefore since I had some 34 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:21,520 theological well, wait, the Chosen is not the Bible. Dallas Jenkins, 35 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,919 a creator of that, has made clear it's not the Bible. 36 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,520 His dad, who writes the novels, has made clear these 37 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,080 aren't the Bible either. So I don't know that you 38 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:34,719 can really have theological differences with the Chosen. It's not theology. 39 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,120 It's dramatizing the Bible, for sure. And yes, they filled 40 00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:40,879 in some white space with imagination. We don't actually know 41 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:45,319 that's what James looked like. Or Peter. We don't actually 42 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,360 know that he was small and wiry. Maybe he was 43 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,360 enormous and gargantuan and ten feet wide. We don't know. 44 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,159 So when Conservatives and Christians say things like this, and 45 00:02:56,199 --> 00:02:59,240 this was the one that just really, I don't care 46 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,199 that Hollywood's I don't care that God's work in Hollywood. 47 00:03:01,199 --> 00:03:04,000 I don't care about Hollywood. Look, I'm telling you something. 48 00:03:04,039 --> 00:03:06,159 We're about to talk about two personalities. I had no 49 00:03:06,199 --> 00:03:08,800 idea who they are. And this is very, very common 50 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:10,560 where Alex and I will sit down and record something 51 00:03:10,599 --> 00:03:13,120 like this, and if I've not done the research into 52 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:15,319 who these people are, Alex will check me, Hey, do 53 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,319 you know who Whitney Cummings is? Taught no idea. I 54 00:03:18,319 --> 00:03:20,919 know she's a famous actress. I know that she said 55 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,280 some things about parenting and maturing that lead me to 56 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:26,800 believe she's going to come to God. I believe God 57 00:03:26,879 --> 00:03:30,319 is calling her. So that's what I found interesting about this. 58 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:34,280 So I don't care about Hollywood's except I care about Hollywood. 59 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:39,719 If you care about getting your country back, then you 60 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:44,080 had better care about Hollywood. If you care about distributing 61 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,240 the gospel, about making disciples of all nations, you had 62 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,240 better invest in Hollywood. And if you're going to let 63 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,360 some differences with oh, well you know that shows and 64 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,879 that I okay, it's not a freedom. Yeah, it had 65 00:03:55,879 --> 00:03:57,639 the line about God's kids if you're not for sale, 66 00:03:57,639 --> 00:04:02,879 but there was a lot of violence and okay, okay, 67 00:04:02,919 --> 00:04:06,400 but then you have now given up the right to 68 00:04:06,479 --> 00:04:13,360 complain ever again about Hollywood. So yes, this woman, this 69 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,959 actress is named Whitney Cummings. She's in Two Broke Girls? 70 00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:22,000 Is at It? Something like that? And she's always been 71 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:26,240 a hardcore liberal until she could no longer be a 72 00:04:26,319 --> 00:04:27,279 hardcore liberal. 73 00:04:27,439 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 3: It's been fascinating because I've been on this sort of 74 00:04:30,079 --> 00:04:32,959 journey through motherhood where you know, I've always been a 75 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:37,439 very liberal person, maybe even a lived hard, But once 76 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,839 you have a kid, you start like having thoughts that 77 00:04:40,079 --> 00:04:42,240 have been characterized as conservative. As soon as I had 78 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,240 a kid, I was like, I need a gun now, 79 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,519 not for myself, because I've got coyotes in my yard. 80 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,560 I've got coyotes everywhere, And before I had a kid, 81 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,240 I was like, they coexist with us. Coyotes were here first, 82 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,600 like I'm in the coyotes home now, I'm like, let's make. 83 00:04:57,519 --> 00:04:58,319 Speaker 1: Hats out of them. 84 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,439 Speaker 3: Let's right, hat, make coyote boots, coyote earrings out of 85 00:05:02,439 --> 00:05:03,480 their eyeballs. 86 00:05:03,519 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 2: Like It's just so. 87 00:05:05,319 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: She's been given the gift of great delivery, great lines, 88 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,319 great personality, Praise God. But there's a kernel of truth 89 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:14,319 to this that when we have kids, we start to 90 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:18,040 think more conservative thoughts. I don't want my kids being 91 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,399 exposed to all this, you know, these these perversions, et cetera. 92 00:05:21,519 --> 00:05:24,319 Can't have that. I don't want my kids exposed to 93 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,319 these chemicals. We need to clean up how we eat. 94 00:05:27,759 --> 00:05:29,519 I don't want my kids. I kept my kids stamp 95 00:05:29,519 --> 00:05:31,879 all night, you know, because then they're crabby the next day. 96 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,399 And man, oh wait, my kids saw that in a film. 97 00:05:34,879 --> 00:05:37,639 No no, no, no, to shut that down. I don't want 98 00:05:37,639 --> 00:05:44,360 our kids seeing that. So magnify this. Your father in heaven, 99 00:05:46,759 --> 00:05:49,639 I don't want my kids seeing that. Does it ever 100 00:05:49,639 --> 00:05:53,759 occur to you? Our father in heaven is watching the 101 00:05:53,759 --> 00:05:58,319 shows you watch, and he's watching what we do with 102 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:04,439 the eyes we've been given. So when someone comes to 103 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,279 an awakening like this, I believe it's the tip tip 104 00:06:08,319 --> 00:06:13,319 tip of Father God calling, because what she's saying is 105 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:18,319 there's a design for parenting. We need to protect our kids. Indeed, 106 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:26,480 what's the ultimate form of protection. It's spiritual. The ultimate 107 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:32,600 form of protection for your kids is to steward their eternity. 108 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:37,879 Because man, look at the alternative. Let's say that you're saved, 109 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:43,279 you're washing the blood of Christ, You're saved, and you 110 00:06:43,439 --> 00:06:45,600 are of this opinion that, yeah, I'm not going to 111 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,000 force it on my kids. Well a, you can't. I mean, yes, 112 00:06:49,079 --> 00:06:51,000 you can force your kids at a certain age to 113 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,639 go to church. You can. You can force them to 114 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,160 go to Bible camp or youth camp. You can do that. 115 00:06:56,199 --> 00:06:58,360 You can force them to attend a Christian school. You 116 00:06:58,399 --> 00:07:03,439 can do all those things. And you can't force them 117 00:07:03,439 --> 00:07:08,000 to accept the faith, but you could go the reverse 118 00:07:08,079 --> 00:07:12,439 path has let them observe the faith. My parents are different. 119 00:07:12,639 --> 00:07:18,519 My parents didn't get a divorce. My dad comes under, 120 00:07:18,519 --> 00:07:20,399 my mama lifts up, and she comes up over my 121 00:07:20,439 --> 00:07:27,160 father and lifts up. My parents pray together. My dad's 122 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:29,560 not afraid to say to me when I'm feeling down, Man, 123 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,759 I don't know why this is happening, but I know 124 00:07:31,839 --> 00:07:34,759 that the creator only has in mind for us are good. 125 00:07:35,240 --> 00:07:36,879 So maybe let's ask the question, what are we to 126 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,800 learn from this? So we can do those things, we 127 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,839 can allow God to work through us. But let's say 128 00:07:43,839 --> 00:07:46,399 that you're saved and you take the other path. I'm 129 00:07:46,399 --> 00:07:49,360 not going to force my kids. They'll figure it out. 130 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,040 And let's say you get to heaven. I mean you 131 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:58,160 will be elated. And what if your kid's not there? 132 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,639 Now that's a conundrum because in heaven there is no pain, 133 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,360 there is no challenge, there's work. We're told they'll be 134 00:08:09,399 --> 00:08:12,240 working the new Heaven and New Earth, so the pain 135 00:08:12,279 --> 00:08:14,879 won't be there. But do you think regret will be there? 136 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,680 We're going to know all things, So the regret we 137 00:08:20,759 --> 00:08:22,600 feel now I don't believe will be there in heaven. 138 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:27,680 But if you're feeling it now, what do you think 139 00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:32,279 your father in heaven feels that you've not yet gone 140 00:08:32,279 --> 00:08:34,559 to your kids and said upfront, I want you in 141 00:08:34,639 --> 00:08:37,879 eternity with me more important than I want you with 142 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:44,519 God and eternity. So this woman, Whitney Cummings, becomes a parent. 143 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,960 Parents on instinct starts to kick in. God doesn't operate 144 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:54,240 on an instinct. He operates on plans. And knowledge. So yes, 145 00:08:54,279 --> 00:08:57,200 he's at work in Hollywood. I believe she didn't yet 146 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,279 announced she's come to the Lord, and I hope that 147 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,759 she comes to cheese. So this is another instance here 148 00:09:02,759 --> 00:09:04,679 where Alex had to say, do you know who Sam Hide? 149 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:04,759 Speaker 4: Is? 150 00:09:04,799 --> 00:09:07,639 Speaker 1: No idea? So Sam Hide, the way Alex described him, 151 00:09:07,879 --> 00:09:10,440 he was he became a very very famous internet troll 152 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,720 by saying really outrageous and somewhat gross things or maybe 153 00:09:13,759 --> 00:09:16,559 even really really gross things. So therefore he gained a 154 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:18,919 footprint people who knew he was. He's got this, he's 155 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:24,519 got national international visibility, and I'm praying, truthfully praying that 156 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,159 he isn't now doing this thing that sometimes people do 157 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,399 as Wow, I've stopped shocking people like I've reached the 158 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,600 top of shock. There's nothing else I can do to shock, 159 00:09:33,039 --> 00:09:36,039 so I'll go the other direction. Now will come and 160 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,120 say I am now suddenly this. 161 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 5: I believe that every day is a gift from a creator, 162 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,919 from God, from the Christian God. I think that God 163 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:50,000 did manifest in human form and like send his son 164 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,039 to die for our sins. I think that that's like 165 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:55,799 the story in the Old Testament where he I think 166 00:09:55,879 --> 00:09:58,120 Abraham has to get he's told, he tells Abraham to 167 00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:01,039 his son, and then he tells he doesn't he doesn't 168 00:10:01,039 --> 00:10:03,039 have to when he gets there. I think it's because 169 00:10:03,919 --> 00:10:07,240 God was showing us that he's willing to do what 170 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,639 he's it does not make us do for him. 171 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,399 Speaker 1: Okay, good, tidy, little bit of Bible knowledge, a little 172 00:10:13,399 --> 00:10:16,600 bit of theology. Very good. I'm praying that he's not 173 00:10:16,639 --> 00:10:19,200 saying I'm going to go I'm going to counterprogram myself. 174 00:10:20,039 --> 00:10:21,679 You know, I did the heel thing. I was a 175 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,120 bad guy and I'm going to be the good guy. 176 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,799 It's a whole Colgan thing, back and forth. Dark Beard, 177 00:10:25,879 --> 00:10:28,679 Hulk was the bad guy and then shaved the beard off, 178 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,120 and all of a sudden he came good. I remember 179 00:10:30,159 --> 00:10:33,399 my daughter used to say about movies, Oh, he's going 180 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:37,120 to turn bad a better character. He'll turn bad shape 181 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:42,879 shifter classic classic storytelling form shape shifters. I hope he's 182 00:10:42,879 --> 00:10:46,200 not shape shifting. There's a lot of people who are 183 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:50,120 being called to God through a specific pathway right now, 184 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:54,200 and it's this. It's people looking at saying this is wrong, 185 00:10:55,960 --> 00:11:01,559 something is really wrong. This is profoundly to serving. This 186 00:11:01,639 --> 00:11:07,320 doesn't feel right, and when it is consistent, and every 187 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:11,679 day in La doesn't feel right, and it increasingly feels wrong. 188 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:17,240 It's increased opportunity for God to call people to himself, 189 00:11:17,279 --> 00:11:21,759 to say, all these senses you have exist for a reason. Look, 190 00:11:21,759 --> 00:11:24,519 there's a reason why when people see bright snakes, most 191 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:30,279 people go up right snake. Right snakes are poisonous. There's 192 00:11:30,279 --> 00:11:34,879 a reason why when people see something that we have 193 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:38,480 been wired by God to know is wrong, we initially 194 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,279 view it as wrong or creepy, and then the world 195 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,879 creeps in and says, who are you to judge? Here's 196 00:11:45,919 --> 00:11:49,519 the answer. I am a being created by a loving 197 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:55,080 God who counted every hair on my head and included 198 00:11:55,159 --> 00:11:59,120 into my psyche and my responses, and yes, my instincts 199 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:04,039 physical self preservation, but also spiritual self preservation. That's who 200 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:06,679 I am. And now that I have accepted Jesus and 201 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,600 agreed to walk with him, I am a son of 202 00:12:08,639 --> 00:12:11,399 the King and an ambassador of Jesus. And I know 203 00:12:11,519 --> 00:12:15,440 I cannot engage in that as an ambassador. Conservatives and 204 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:20,840 Christians must care about Hollywood, and when you're given the 205 00:12:20,879 --> 00:12:25,159 opportunity to interact with hollywoods to change it, I cannot 206 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:30,279 understand why people wouldn't take that opportunity. Story number two. 207 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:33,799 So I think it's really important that President Trump put 208 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:39,200 both Iran and Israel and blast, so he didn't praise God, 209 00:12:39,279 --> 00:12:43,399 go bomb Israel and also praise God. The targeted nature 210 00:12:44,279 --> 00:12:47,120 of the bombings that President Trump okayed in the military 211 00:12:47,159 --> 00:12:52,080 carried out, that was a brilliant, brilliant move. And look, 212 00:12:52,159 --> 00:12:54,480 I was out. I didn't want us in this war. 213 00:12:54,519 --> 00:12:58,320 I don't want nation building. I am so tired of 214 00:12:58,399 --> 00:13:03,360 seeing our troops lives put at risk and sacrifice for 215 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:05,960 what I accidentally called the Mental East. The other day. 216 00:13:06,759 --> 00:13:09,600 By the way, I saw on YouTube comments that Ileana 217 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,399 Maria is now calling it mental East. Thank you, Leona. 218 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,799 That's that's cool. I picked up and it was a mistake. 219 00:13:15,759 --> 00:13:18,519 So President Trump did put both countries on blast. And 220 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,159 I think this is important because I think it says 221 00:13:21,279 --> 00:13:28,679 something really really important about President Trump. Ron violated the agreement. 222 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 2: Do you believe that a run as remade to see you? 223 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 6: Yeah? 224 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 7: I do. They violated it. But Israel violated it too. 225 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:39,440 Israel as soon as we made the deal, they came 226 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,679 out and they dropped the load of Bob's the likes 227 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,440 of which I've never seen before, the biggest load that 228 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,480 we've seen. I'm not happy with Israel. You know, when 229 00:13:47,759 --> 00:13:50,559 I say okay, now you have twelve hours, you don't 230 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,000 go out in the first hour. It just drop everything 231 00:13:53,039 --> 00:13:54,759 you have on them. So I'm not happy with them. 232 00:13:55,279 --> 00:13:58,360 I'm not happy with Iron either. But I'm really unhappy 233 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:01,240 if Israel's going out this morning because the one rocket 234 00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,799 that didn't land, that was shot perhaps by mistake, that 235 00:14:04,879 --> 00:14:09,919 didn't land, I'm not happy about that. What we have, 236 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,600 we basically have two countries that have been fighting so 237 00:14:13,759 --> 00:14:16,480 long and so hard that they don't know what the 238 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:18,200 they're doing. Do you understand that? 239 00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,279 Speaker 1: So not a big fan of the of the profanity, 240 00:14:22,279 --> 00:14:25,039 You understand that President Trump speaking from the hearts. And 241 00:14:25,159 --> 00:14:29,480 that's the point to me. That is not a guy 242 00:14:30,879 --> 00:14:35,080 who is okay war. That is a guy who wants 243 00:14:35,159 --> 00:14:37,519 us to stop. You could say it's because it could 244 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:41,039 put him. He's been nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize 245 00:14:41,039 --> 00:14:45,039 by Pakistan or no, was it Indian? No, it is Pakistan. 246 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,120 Maybe he wants another nomination. President Trump does have an ego, 247 00:14:50,159 --> 00:14:52,440 We should recognize that. But that's a man who does 248 00:14:52,519 --> 00:14:55,519 not want to drop more bombs. Does that seem unapparent 249 00:14:55,559 --> 00:14:59,279 to everyone else, and I think it's a very positive 250 00:14:59,279 --> 00:15:01,519 sign that he's willing to put Israel on blast. Yes, 251 00:15:01,559 --> 00:15:05,799 they're an ally, and that doesn't mean they get to 252 00:15:05,879 --> 00:15:07,840 run our foreign policy. That doesn't mean that we're going 253 00:15:07,919 --> 00:15:12,360 to back every move. It means that the President of 254 00:15:12,399 --> 00:15:15,840 United States has put our country into this now directly 255 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:18,799 at war. Well, we haven't declared it, but we have 256 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,679 been in a state of war for a little while 257 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:25,399 with the bombings with Iran that puts US at enormous risk. 258 00:15:27,279 --> 00:15:30,519 So he's right to say, yep, I'm not backing Israel 259 00:15:30,519 --> 00:15:32,799 at this This has been a long time coming. And 260 00:15:32,879 --> 00:15:35,399 if you look at the history of Iran, do you 261 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:39,879 remember when our soldiers were taken captive our sailors and 262 00:15:39,919 --> 00:15:41,600 there was a picture that a lot of people found 263 00:15:41,679 --> 00:15:45,399 very very humiliating of them kneeling down on their on 264 00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:50,440 their boat, hands in their heads. Because our navy can 265 00:15:50,559 --> 00:15:54,919 destroy the Iranian navy about forty thousand times over in 266 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,799 a period of a couple of minutes if we decide 267 00:15:56,799 --> 00:16:01,159 to do that. The Navy punished sailors who were detained 268 00:16:01,159 --> 00:16:04,480 by Iran. Remember this, now, the rumor at the time 269 00:16:04,679 --> 00:16:07,320 was they were forced to surrender, that they didn't want 270 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,320 to do that, that they had straight into these waters. 271 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:10,960 There was a lot of discussion of this, that this 272 00:16:11,159 --> 00:16:15,320 was a move by a liberal administration to just appease Iran. 273 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,519 There's been a lot of appeasing. This is the way 274 00:16:17,559 --> 00:16:19,200 this was reported on TV. 275 00:16:19,039 --> 00:16:22,639 Speaker 4: The Iranian news agency, and it shows our American sailors 276 00:16:23,039 --> 00:16:26,360 being turned over to American authorities. These are the ten 277 00:16:26,879 --> 00:16:32,519 Navy sailors whose boat drifted into Iranian waters, supposedly illegal waters. 278 00:16:32,559 --> 00:16:35,840 The Iranians took them into custody and held them overnight 279 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,360 for nearly a day. You can see the sailors sitting there, 280 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,039 and you can see the Iranians, I would suppose looking 281 00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:43,799 at these Americans passports. 282 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:49,519 Speaker 1: No, I do not believe that sailors in areas like 283 00:16:49,559 --> 00:16:52,080 that where they put themselves at risk carry their passports. 284 00:16:53,519 --> 00:16:57,720 They weren't seeking entry into Iran dog tags, yes, passports, 285 00:16:57,919 --> 00:17:03,639 probably not. Maybe they were sent over there. So as 286 00:17:03,679 --> 00:17:07,799 President Trump has held Iran to nearly ultimate account with 287 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,640 these bombs, because the message is pretty clear to Iran, 288 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:13,799 if you continue down this path, what we just dropped 289 00:17:13,839 --> 00:17:16,119 on your nuclear facilities, we could drop on your cities, 290 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,200 and we could end your cities, and we don't want 291 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,400 to do that. The president in that clip shows he 292 00:17:20,400 --> 00:17:22,160 doesn't want to do that. But there are people in 293 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:26,559 our country who seem to want to see the war 294 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:32,279 brought here. They're bringing it rhetorically here, and they would 295 00:17:32,279 --> 00:17:35,960 like to see the scuffles here, they think, but they're 296 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,640 not really ready for it. There's some things you're just 297 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,319 not ready for. I was not ready to hear that 298 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:44,119 I have insulin resistance. That came as a shock to me. 299 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:46,440 It's a tiny little bit, but it just brought to 300 00:17:46,519 --> 00:17:50,279 mind my grandpa, who got type two diabetes late in life. 301 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,279 Grandpa was pretty slim. I mean, as an older guy, 302 00:17:54,279 --> 00:17:56,480 he was active. He didn't exercise, he walked a lot 303 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:59,839 every day. We want go over to his house. Near Christmas. 304 00:18:00,279 --> 00:18:02,279 It was a big, big snow in Spokane. It was 305 00:18:02,319 --> 00:18:04,440 like three feet of snow in his roof and the 306 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,839 man was like seventy two years old and was on 307 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:10,759 top of his roof sweeping it off. My dad wigged 308 00:18:11,079 --> 00:18:12,680 and said, get up there and get your grandpa down 309 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:16,160 and sweep that roof. Seventy two So he was always 310 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,240 very very active, but yeah, he got type two diabetes. 311 00:18:18,279 --> 00:18:20,319 And then I remember visiting him when he was having 312 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:25,400 when he was getting dialysis, and that was really hard, 313 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,279 and then that dementia cetera. I don't want any of that, 314 00:18:29,079 --> 00:18:31,400 So I am maniacal about what I eat. I track 315 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:36,319 every macronutrient, every ounce of water. Somewhere this morning around 316 00:18:38,079 --> 00:18:40,640 see seven point fifteen, I'd had one hundred and eighty 317 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,799 ounces of water. So I'm tracking all this and I'm 318 00:18:44,839 --> 00:18:47,480 taking a step. In addition to more fiber, more plants, 319 00:18:47,759 --> 00:18:51,640 I use Berberine Breakthrough, So this is a natural supplement. 320 00:18:51,759 --> 00:18:55,279 I take two tablets before each meal. And what it 321 00:18:55,319 --> 00:18:59,039 does is it bounces out my blood sugar. It helps 322 00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:03,880 salt or get under control insulin response. It helps enhance 323 00:19:04,319 --> 00:19:09,279 carbohydrate metabolism. It bounces hormones and stress responses, and it 324 00:19:09,319 --> 00:19:13,480 increases blood sugar uptake into the muscles instead of the 325 00:19:13,519 --> 00:19:17,200 fat cells. When it's in the muscles, it's used for 326 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,799 movement and exercise, et cetera. It is a way to 327 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,039 make sure I do not walk further down the path 328 00:19:23,079 --> 00:19:25,640 of type two diabetes. If this is in your family 329 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,680 at all, you might have it. You might not know it. 330 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,440 Friends of mine and crossfits have it and they didn't 331 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:34,400 know it.

There are people 336 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,079 in our country who apparently want to see the war 337 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,920 brought here. This is about the same time as President 338 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,720 Trump allowed these bombs to go forward directed that operation. 339 00:19:58,279 --> 00:20:01,880 We saw people marching with Iranian flags in the United 340 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:16,519 States and outside the White House. Now, to my knowledge, 341 00:20:16,599 --> 00:20:19,720 Israel hasn't announced that they want to destroy America, that 342 00:20:19,799 --> 00:20:22,119 they want to end all Muslim people, But the Iranian 343 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:24,839 government has announced that they want to end all Jewish people, 344 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:27,319 destroy the state of Israel, and then come for us. 345 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,359 To my knowledge, the country of Israel does not drop 346 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,559 people off rooftops, does not end people's lives or unlive 347 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:38,640 them in mass celebratory celebrations at dawn, doing this to women. 348 00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:42,599 Not to my knowledge, Israel has its problem. Its government 349 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,039 is corrupt. All earthly governments are corrupt because they're run 350 00:20:45,039 --> 00:20:47,359 by people and people are fallen. That's always going to 351 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:51,039 be the case. What gets me in this is President 352 00:20:51,079 --> 00:20:55,599 Trump's restraint, his willingness to call out both sides, his 353 00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:59,200 willingness to dramatically call out Israel like I've never seen 354 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:03,000 a president do. I saw the passive aggressive stuff with 355 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:06,000 Black Cusine Obama and others. There was the instance where 356 00:21:06,039 --> 00:21:09,160 Barack Cusine Obama had the Premier of Israel, the president 357 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,519 of Israel, enter through the service entrance. Do you remember 358 00:21:11,519 --> 00:21:18,640 that subtle? Right, this lady has an ability to call 359 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:22,119 out the truth about Iran in ways that other people do. 360 00:21:22,119 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 8: Not imagine being from a country where you have no 361 00:21:25,799 --> 00:21:30,279 human rights. The government is evil. And by no human rights, 362 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,160 I mean you don't have the freedom to choose your religion. 363 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:37,160 If you choose a different religion than Islam, you get executed. 364 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:40,640 You don't have the freedom to date anyone. If you're 365 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:45,160 outside and you get caught holding hands with the opposite sex, 366 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:50,400 you get arrested. And then getting on social media and 367 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:55,720 seeing people support the government of that country that's doing 368 00:21:55,759 --> 00:21:57,160 all these things to these people. 369 00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 1: Please, please, she said, educate yourself. President Trump is aware 370 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:08,519 of the faults of both countries. He called out both countries, 371 00:22:09,839 --> 00:22:12,559 and it's increasingly clear to me that he's a man 372 00:22:12,599 --> 00:22:14,759 who does not want war. It's increasingly clear to me 373 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,920 that social media is in fact a blessing in many ways, 374 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:21,200 particularly for people who are from Iran, to be able 375 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,599 to say, this is what goes on in that country. 376 00:22:24,559 --> 00:22:26,519 There's a reason we don't want them to have nukes, 377 00:22:26,559 --> 00:22:28,559 and it's because of the personality of the leadership. 378 00:22:29,079 --> 00:22:30,559 Speaker 8: And to live in peace. 379 00:22:30,759 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 6: And freedom withal is etched in the very fabric of 380 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:39,279 our ancient history and culture. Our deep bond with the 381 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:43,480 Jewish people is one that dates back thousands of years 382 00:22:43,559 --> 00:22:48,680 and is indeed unbreakable. But beyond all there is one 383 00:22:48,839 --> 00:22:52,440 certainty that must be heard by the people of the world, 384 00:22:52,880 --> 00:22:57,400 especially in this realm of social media confusion that we 385 00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,839 live in, that the only enemy of the peace loving 386 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:07,000 Iranian people remains the regime itself that has held the 387 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:12,400 nation and its people capter for forty six years. But 388 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:17,720 only through the power of the brave Iranian people will 389 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:22,160 we see Iran free again and everlasting peace attained. 390 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:28,079 Speaker 1: You will not see everlasting peace attains during this lifetime. 391 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:30,400 That will not occur. That will be in the new 392 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,960 Heaven and the New Earth, which is available to people 393 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,440 who go through Jesus Christ, because Jesus Christ is the way, 394 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:37,839 the truth of life, and no one gets to the 395 00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:41,200 Father but through him. And maybe, maybe, maybe, just maybe, 396 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:46,279 as President Trump has shown this restraint, as President Trump 397 00:23:46,319 --> 00:23:50,000 has been willing to criticize both sides, maybe maybe, maybe, 398 00:23:50,039 --> 00:23:53,559 just maybe we have an opportunity for people to see 399 00:23:53,559 --> 00:23:59,759 God's face through a president, an imperfect president who does 400 00:23:59,799 --> 00:24:02,319 not come to the Middle East or the Mental East 401 00:24:04,039 --> 00:24:07,319 with bombs writing down and troops coming in and regime 402 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:10,960 change on the mind and money at the heart. Maybe, 403 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,440 just maybe they can see a guy who legitimately wants 404 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:17,599 to see peace and speaks about it, even if it's 405 00:24:17,599 --> 00:24:23,759 in frustrated tones. Story number three, So there's a there's 406 00:24:23,759 --> 00:24:26,839 a guy named James Kohne, and he speaks a lot 407 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:31,839 in churches. And James said that if you exclude what 408 00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:35,400 he calls queer people, you're just as guilty as people 409 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:42,240 who unalived black people from tree limbs. So number one, 410 00:24:42,559 --> 00:24:48,279 are so called queer people actually actually not welcome in 411 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:52,960 Christian churches. That's what this supposed Methodist minister says in 412 00:24:53,079 --> 00:24:56,400 Theologian and some of his theology has to do with 413 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,960 black liberation theology, which is a it's a Marxist construct. 414 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:05,160 It's just another way of having a deconstruction of the West, 415 00:25:05,519 --> 00:25:09,680 in this case through the lens of Christianity. And this 416 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:11,799 is what he said about what he calls queer people. 417 00:25:11,799 --> 00:25:15,440 That I just make sure people understand this when I 418 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:19,440 say that he calls queer people, because I don't believe 419 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:23,559 that we should identify ourselves through a feelings. I think 420 00:25:23,559 --> 00:25:26,319 those are emotions. I think one of the greatest tricks 421 00:25:26,319 --> 00:25:29,720 Satan's ever pulled is to have people identify themselves through 422 00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:34,759 their feelings. Because feelings are brittle, and feelings can come 423 00:25:34,759 --> 00:25:37,279 and go, that can be intense and then gone. I'd 424 00:25:37,279 --> 00:25:39,880 far rather have us identify as people created by God 425 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,519 in His image, loved by God, and hopefully, hopefully many 426 00:25:43,519 --> 00:25:47,160 people will be able to legitimately identify as sons of 427 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:50,640 God and daughters of God by accepting Jesus. Here's what 428 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,759 this minister Methodist minister said about excluding what he calls 429 00:25:54,839 --> 00:25:55,920 queer people from church. 430 00:25:56,240 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 9: Well, it was in the white churches that the white 431 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:06,799 God and a white Christ enslaves and separated blocks from. 432 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:07,640 Speaker 1: The white community. 433 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 9: Today black and white churches are doing the same thing, 434 00:26:15,279 --> 00:26:21,599 excluding queer people from their community, saying I love the sinner, 435 00:26:21,799 --> 00:26:25,559 hate the sin, But I say, as long as you 436 00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:31,039 are silent and do nothing about homophobia and white supremacy 437 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:35,000 and all these other EVAs, you are just as guilty 438 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:39,640 as the one who hung black on trees and queer 439 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:41,440 people on picket senses. 440 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 1: Okay, are queer people? And by that I assume it 441 00:26:49,559 --> 00:26:55,799 means people who practice sex acts outside of heteronormativity. Are 442 00:26:55,839 --> 00:27:00,960 they truly excluded from church? Someone point me in the 443 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:06,519 direction of the most conservative evangelical church that doesn't have 444 00:27:06,559 --> 00:27:10,359 someone named Fred Phelps running it, and he's gone to 445 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:17,799 his eternal damnation. Phelps. Can someone point me to the 446 00:27:17,920 --> 00:27:23,960 churches that say same sex attracted people not welcome, or 447 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:30,680 gender defiant, gender confused people not welcome, Because the truth 448 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,759 of the matter is there are people in all the pews, 449 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:37,039 well in the pews of all evalant jolical churches who 450 00:27:37,079 --> 00:27:40,440 have these feelings. The truth is there's people sitting in 451 00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:46,000 the pews who would consider themselves heteronormative and are who 452 00:27:46,039 --> 00:27:50,200 have habits that involve computer screens and phones, etc. At nights, 453 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:54,960 and they are there too. There are people sitting in 454 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,640 the seats of Evangelical churches and Catholic churches and Methodist 455 00:27:58,759 --> 00:28:01,559 churches who that weekend did things they don't want to 456 00:28:01,559 --> 00:28:05,119 talk about two or around their husbands and wives, et cetera, 457 00:28:05,279 --> 00:28:10,079 going outside the marriage. All these things exist. So number one, 458 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:14,440 it is not excluding a person from church to speak 459 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:19,440 about sin as the Bible describes it. In fact, our 460 00:28:19,559 --> 00:28:24,640 churches are filled with people whose sin across multiple, multiple 461 00:28:24,839 --> 00:28:32,559 difference modes of sin. But there are some behaviors that 462 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:36,839 people who of some people who identify as queer want 463 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:41,720 to bring into church. And if you take the sin 464 00:28:41,799 --> 00:28:45,200 that they want to see amplified as good and you 465 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,200 apply any of the sin to it, it never works. 466 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:54,519 People never accept it. So will preacher Clips TV showed 467 00:28:54,599 --> 00:28:57,359 us James Cohne. Now Protest is going to give us 468 00:28:57,359 --> 00:28:59,839 an example of this in just a second, which is 469 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,839 corruption of the church. You know, it's funny because when 470 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,039 Jesus Christ spoke about things, there's so many people who 471 00:29:06,039 --> 00:29:10,119 say Jesus didn't speak about hell, yeah he did. Jesus 472 00:29:10,119 --> 00:29:13,480 didn't speak about marriage, yes he did. Well, Jesus never 473 00:29:13,519 --> 00:29:17,119 spoke about money, well, no, actually he talked about money 474 00:29:17,119 --> 00:29:20,079 a lot and stewarding it and strewarting the gifts were 475 00:29:20,079 --> 00:29:23,440 given you throughout your life. Are going to work and 476 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,039 put things in a bank account or an ira or 477 00:29:26,079 --> 00:29:27,880 a four to one K or a four or three 478 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:32,359 B or whatever instrument the government makes us use. And 479 00:29:32,359 --> 00:29:35,160 you're got to investments accounts and maybe hedge fund accounts. 480 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,079 And if you have a lot of money, maybe you're 481 00:29:37,119 --> 00:29:40,039 gonna have cash producing real estate properties, or maybe it's 482 00:29:40,079 --> 00:29:41,359 not big of you had a lot of money because 483 00:29:41,359 --> 00:29:44,599 he did a lot of work, So that can reflect 484 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:48,440 your life's energy, and it stored those accounts so that 485 00:29:48,519 --> 00:29:51,680 life's energy is buzzing with activity. Right Look at the 486 00:29:51,839 --> 00:29:54,160 economy we're in right now. Can you think of a 487 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:57,480 time where there's been more volatility, more risk in an economy, 488 00:29:57,799 --> 00:30:01,000 more of a chance that your retirement would be put 489 00:30:01,079 --> 00:30:05,119 at risk in a couple of days of action or 490 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,720 inaction like say, for instance, China take this opportunity to 491 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:13,039 go attack Taiwan. What changes in the tech fields? This 492 00:30:13,079 --> 00:30:15,720 is a time to make sure your retirement is fully 493 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:18,640 locked and fully loaded.

That's not true. We don't 525 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:00,880 exclude centers from churches, or guess what, we'd have no 526 00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:06,039 people in church. There are, though, activities that people who've 527 00:32:06,039 --> 00:32:09,440 been told by the world that a sin described in 528 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:12,759 the Bible of same sex activity isn't in fact a sin, 529 00:32:12,799 --> 00:32:14,880 In fact, Jesus never spoke of it, the Bible doesn't 530 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,720 address it, and none of those things are true. And 531 00:32:17,759 --> 00:32:21,440 there are behaviors that have been constructed when people decided 532 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,240 that that portion of the Bible is not true. We 533 00:32:23,279 --> 00:32:25,599 don't like that, we don't like the teaching on sexuality. 534 00:32:25,759 --> 00:32:29,000 So let's set up our own churches, and this is 535 00:32:29,039 --> 00:32:31,400 this sort of behavior that is not welcome in any 536 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:36,200 And hear me, please, in any Christian church, there might. 537 00:32:36,039 --> 00:32:39,200 Speaker 10: Be a swear word, but we will only do it 538 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:50,200 one time. 539 00:32:52,279 --> 00:32:56,799 Speaker 1: Christians cast us out and Jesus has our back, and 540 00:32:56,839 --> 00:33:02,960 the entire song is screaming, somewhat melodically that they're super 541 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:07,359 super super super super gay because that's how God wants them. 542 00:33:08,799 --> 00:33:14,799 Just replace the sin. I'm super super super covetous, I'm 543 00:33:14,839 --> 00:33:20,480 super super super dishonest, I'm super super super prone to stealing. 544 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,039 Just replace the sin and tell me it's going to 545 00:33:25,079 --> 00:33:28,079 be welcome in any church. Oh but they're not hurting 546 00:33:28,119 --> 00:33:33,920 anybody if you believe only in this life, if you 547 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:38,079 believe that you exist once and then you die, and 548 00:33:38,160 --> 00:33:43,680 it's two consenting adults. Okay, all right, I give in. 549 00:33:43,759 --> 00:33:47,519 You're not hurting anybody. Now. Depending on how you are 550 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:54,960 intertaining yourselves or involving yourselves physically, you're doing physical harm. 551 00:33:55,039 --> 00:33:59,319 But I guess that's your choice. So maybe you're a 552 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:04,680 universalist and you believe everybody, everybody gets into heaven, everybody 553 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,119 goes to God. Here's what you also believe. There's no 554 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:15,440 difference between heaven and earth. None. Eternity is just like now. 555 00:34:17,679 --> 00:34:22,880 Eternity has people who steal and beat, who rob, who 556 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:26,239 take advantage, who force us to do things they don't 557 00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:30,840 want to do. Who can That's what you think heaven 558 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:38,000 is like. So why go the church? We are to 559 00:34:38,079 --> 00:34:41,000 be the church. This is to be daily the body 560 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,960 of Christ. This place, the church people want to see 561 00:34:44,039 --> 00:34:47,159 is a place where we go visit God. We can 562 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:50,280 visit God at any time, but church is a place 563 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:53,880 who will remind people there is a design. There's a 564 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:55,960 design for how to interact with each other. The Bible 565 00:34:56,079 --> 00:34:58,960 lays this out. It's also an opportunity to remind people 566 00:34:59,559 --> 00:35:01,960 that the new Heaven and the new Earth, there's only 567 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:05,840 going to be one type of person in this way. 568 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:09,000 It is people who have fully given themselves to Jesus Christ. 569 00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:12,840 In that way, if you view this eternally as a 570 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,280 Christian who believes what Jesus said, I am the way 571 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:16,480 of the truth in life. No one gets to the 572 00:35:16,519 --> 00:35:19,559 Father but for me. You are not just harming people 573 00:35:21,559 --> 00:35:25,400 by promoting this. You're harming them on an eternal basis. 574 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,000 And if as these pastors in this song, we're doing 575 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:37,039 you're a false teacher. I cannot believe, given what the 576 00:35:37,039 --> 00:35:40,320 Bible says warning us about false teachers, that you yourself are 577 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:44,920 not condemning yourself to an eternity apart from God. In 578 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:47,440 an eternity where there is no love, there is no patience, 579 00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:51,360 there is no salvation, there's no kindness, there's no longer suffering, 580 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:55,360 there's no temperance, there's just negativity. So in fact, you 581 00:35:55,519 --> 00:36:00,320 are harming someone. This is the Todd Hermannshaw. Please go, 582 00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:04,639 be well, be strong, be kind, and make a decision 583 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:06,480 to walk in the light of Christ.
