1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Okay, just from my own experience, take it for what 2 00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:07,440 Speaker 1: it's worth. And I'm not saying this about individual churches. 3 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:09,680 Speaker 1: I mean, some it's obvious, like this church in Detum, 4 00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,119 Speaker 1: but there's many others that you know, are very solid. 5 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 1: But this comment is more directed at the archdiocese, Okay, 6 00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:23,360 Speaker 1: the leadership here, the Catholic church leadership in Massachusetts. To me, 7 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:28,159 Speaker 1: it's very obvious that they have now pledged allegiance to 8 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party, There's no question, and that in many 9 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 1: ways they put their allegiance to the Democratic Party over 10 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 1: their faith, over their church, over God and Jesus, you know, 11 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:48,760 Speaker 1: over God and Jesus themselves. So to me, I'm sorry, 12 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 1: but I've seen it again and again. The way they 13 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,960 Speaker 1: tolerate rampant abortion in this state, the way they tolerate 14 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: the assault on marriage and on family in this state. 15 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:04,840 Speaker 1: I could just go on and on how soft they've been, feckless, 16 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 1: ineffective against the radical LGBTQ plus agenda. I mean, I 17 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 1: just issue after issue after issue, and it's like the 18 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:19,120 Speaker 1: only issue that matters now is open borders and illegal 19 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 1: immigration and sanctuary cities. You know, I don't know when 20 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: the last time at my church that I heard a 21 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 1: homily denouncing abortion. I don't know. It's I don't know. 22 00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: It's been at least ten years. Just to give an example, 23 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: I don't I've never heard a pro life sermon ever. 24 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: Call a ten minute pro life homily, I've never heard that. 25 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: But at least once a month, Oh, the illegals, the illegals. 26 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: We have to give sanctuary. We have to open our homes, 27 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 1: we have to open our church is, we have to 28 00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: open our wallets, we have to open up our welfare services. 29 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:11,960 Speaker 1: It's just NonStop. So no, I think there's no question. 30 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 1: There's no question that, at least here in this state. 31 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 1: I can only speak for Massachusetts. They're in bed with 32 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: the Democratic Party. Six one seven the archdiocese. Six one 33 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 1: seven two six six sixty eight sixty eight is the number. Okay, 34 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 1: many of you are asking, Jeff, could you please give 35 00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 1: the name of that priest again. He is a reverend 36 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 1: Stephen Josoma. I believe it is how you pronounce his 37 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: last name, Josoma. It's at Saint Susannah Parish in Denham. 38 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 1: It's now gone everywhere, and so he has now put 39 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:56,639 Speaker 1: up a nativity scene where there is no baby Jesus, 40 00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: or Mary or Joseph. Instead, there is an that says 41 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: Ice was here, obviously, the presumption being that they were 42 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: taken by ICE agents, all three of them. And underneath 43 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 1: that sign it reads quote, the Holy Family is safe 44 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: in our church. If you see ice, please call loose Lucee. 45 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: I don't even want to give out the number, but 46 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: they give the number. It's a local number. So there 47 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 1: you go. Basically, just the way we give sanctuary to 48 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: illegals in our church, we're giving sanctuary to the Holy 49 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: Family in our church because Jesus, Mary and Joseph were 50 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 1: illegal aliens six one seven two six six sixty eight 51 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 1: sixty eight. So again I want to ask all of you, 52 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: have you add something similar to this happened in your church? 53 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: I don't care Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant, whatever it may be, 54 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: just in your place of worship. Number one, number two. 55 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 1: If you were a member of the Saint Susanna parish 56 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: in Debnham, what would you do and what do you 57 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: think the parishioners should do? If anything? Now I can 58 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 1: just tell you if this was my parish. Sheila, the 59 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,679 Speaker 1: previous caller said she just left. She couldn't take it. Anymore, 60 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: she went to another church. That's what I would do. Now. 61 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: Grace would agree with me, Yeah, we're going to go 62 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 1: to another church. But I'm telling you, I know my wife. 63 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: She would call the priest and either speak to him 64 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: or leave a voicemail in a very polite way, but 65 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: she would give him the business as they say. She 66 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 1: would tell him you're wrong, what you're doing is shameful, unacceptable, 67 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:59,280 Speaker 1: and you should stop. And if you continued, she'd say, yeh, Jeff, 68 00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,840 Speaker 1: you're right, Let's go another church. Let's go to another parish. 69 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: And the reason why I know this is because there 70 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: was a homily at a different parish that we went to. 71 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,800 Speaker 1: I have to be careful. I go to Mass at 72 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: a certain time, and I don't want people to know 73 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 1: this because there's a lot of crazies out there. So 74 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: for a while we went to another parish during the summer. Okay, 75 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: I don't want to say anything more. And at that parish, 76 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: the priest gave a pro illegal immigration, pro sanctuary city, 77 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: pro amnesty homily, and Grace was I was infuriated, but 78 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: Grace was really infuriated, and she insisted. She called and 79 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,159 Speaker 1: left a message and she said, you know I raised 80 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 1: my children to respect the law and to respect law 81 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: enforcement and to respect authority, and what you did today 82 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 1: in that homily was undermined everything I'm trying to raise 83 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:05,560 Speaker 1: my children to be. Can you think before you speak? Anyway, 84 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: we stopped going to that parish because I don't want 85 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: to listen to that nonsense all the time. So I 86 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 1: know that she would do something like that, but in 87 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 1: the end we left. That's what most people do, They 88 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:24,799 Speaker 1: just leave. I'm asking now maybe it's time. Do you email? 89 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 1: Do you flood the guy with calls? Do you even 90 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,679 Speaker 1: hold a protest? I don't want to hold a protest, 91 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: and in front of a church, I don't. I respect 92 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 1: priests by naturally and just naturally. I always respect a 93 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: priest that is a man of God. So I don't 94 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 1: want to, you know, be confrontational. I don't want to 95 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 1: cause an incident or a scene. I don't want to 96 00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: do that. But you're starting to back me up against 97 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: the wall here, because if this starts happening in more 98 00:06:55,440 --> 00:07:00,040 Speaker 1: and more parishes, you're forcing me. I don't want to 99 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 1: do it, but you're forcing me. Six one seven two 100 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 1: six six sixty eight sixty eight. Okay, We're gonna go 101 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: right to your calls, but first joining us now, as 102 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: she always does at this time. She is the co founder, CEO, 103 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 1: president of Kelly Financial Services, and yes, that is her 104 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: wonderful name, Kelly.

I am good. 106 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 3: As we head deeper into the holiday season, I've been 107 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 3: thinking a lot about generosity, not just the gifts we give, 108 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 3: but values behind them and the legacy we want to leave. 109 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 3: Retirement isn't just about saving money, It's about stewardship. It's 110 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:54,800 Speaker 3: about using what you've worked so hard for with purpose, gratitude, 111 00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 3: and clarity. And this time of year, people want their 112 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 3: giving to matter helping children, grandchildren, their church, or the 113 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 3: causes they love, while understanding while why taxes may shape 114 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 3: those choices so their generosity goes as far as possible. 115 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 3: That's why we're sharing our Tax Explorer Guide. It's easy 116 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 3: to read and helps you understand how taxes may impact 117 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:26,239 Speaker 3: your giving and your retirement income as we look ahead 118 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 3: to a new year. If you'd like a copy, give 119 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 3: us a call or send us an email. Jeff, I'll 120 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 3: continue this conversation with our Kelly Advisors tomorrow morning at 121 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 3: nine am on safe money strategies.

I'm at their brain Tree in Burlington 128 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 1: offices called eight eight eight eight hundred eighteen eighty one 129 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,840 Speaker 1: eight eight eight eight hundred eighteen eighty one, or if 130 00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: you prefer, you can email Kelly directly Kelly at Kellyfinancial 131 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 1: dot org. James in Marlborough. Thanks for holding James and welcome. 132 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 2: No problem. 133 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 4: How you doing, Jeff. 134 00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 5: I think this priest is in a lot more trouble 135 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 5: than he realizes, a lot more trouble because, according to 136 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 5: the Gospels, an angel, a direct emissary of God, directed. 137 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 4: Joseph to take his family to Egypt. Now this priest 138 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 4: is calling that illegal immigration. He's basically saying that God 139 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 4: is complicit in a crime, which is a rather odd 140 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 4: theological position to take, wouldn't you say. 141 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: Brilliant, James, I'm telling you brilliant, seriously brilliant. I know 142 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:03,079 Speaker 1: I'm like a broken record, but honestly, best audience in 143 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: the business. I mean, it's checkmate. Really, you got them, 144 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: you got them, and you know, James, I gotta tell you. Look, 145 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying this to stroke your ego. You're 146 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:18,120 Speaker 1: obviously a smart man, but look, the archdiocese they're no dummies. 147 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: I mean they're not and a lot of them are 148 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 1: trained in the seminary. They know Christian traditions, they know 149 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 1: Catholic faith, they know the Catechism, they know you know, 150 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,600 Speaker 1: they know this story of Jesus. They know it extremely well. 151 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:38,440 Speaker 1: They know this, they know this. So how come nobody, James, honestly, 152 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: how come nobody's picking up the phone and telling this priest, 153 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,960 Speaker 1: father Josoma, how do you pronounced his last name? Say, hey, dude, 154 00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:50,200 Speaker 1: you gotta go like, I'm sorry, that's it, It's over. 155 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 1: I mean, why is the archdiocese deliberately turning a blind 156 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:59,240 Speaker 1: eye in your view? Even though forget the local backlash, 157 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: this is now a national story. I mean, this parish 158 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 1: now is bringing shame to the Catholic Church. 159 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:11,360 Speaker 6: What's your theory, James, Well, like you said, it's uh, 160 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:16,240 Speaker 6: it's politicized and you know sometimes uh, you know, sometimes 161 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 6: scripture is difficult, you know, I mean, uh, you know, 162 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 6: you've got to you've you've got to you know, embrace 163 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,719 Speaker 6: what's there. And you know, if your politics clashes with 164 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 6: you know, your theology or basically divine truth from a 165 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 6: from a religious perspective, yeah, that's pretty bad. That's pretty bad. 166 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 7: I mean the. 167 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:39,560 Speaker 4: Bottom line is on whose authority is he making this distinction. 168 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,839 Speaker 4: I mean, on the one hand, you know, you've got 169 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 4: God telling you to do something, and on the other hand, 170 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 4: you know you've got this you know, secular legal you 171 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 4: know whatever. 172 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:49,760 Speaker 7: Uh. 173 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,760 Speaker 4: So again, if he's going to start talking about legalities 174 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:56,079 Speaker 4: and the rules and such, I think he's going to 175 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,680 Speaker 4: have a much harder time finding a higher authority, uh 176 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 4: than God. So, like I said, I think this. 177 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,719 Speaker 6: Guy's going to be in a lot of trouble to 178 00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 6: worry about. 179 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 1: James Master, call, you nailed it, You so nailed it. 180 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: Thank you for that call. Look, this is the elephant 181 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 1: in the room and it pains me as a Catholic 182 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 1: to say it. It really does. And to be fair, 183 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,880 Speaker 1: it's not just the Catholic Church. The Lutheran Church. There 184 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 1: are other Protestant denominations or some Lutheran churches because there 185 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 1: are multiple, but some Lutheran denominations and Protestant denominations are 186 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: involved as well. Okay, so it's not just a Catholic thing, 187 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: to be fair, but I'm speaking as a Catholic. It's 188 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 1: the billions and billions of dollars that the Vatican and 189 00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 1: the Church gets in the United States from working with NGOs, 190 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: non governmental organizations led by Catholic charities to bring in 191 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 1: illegal aliens and resettle them across the country. Just follow 192 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 1: the money. So they're espousing a globalist, open borders id 193 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:11,120 Speaker 1: theology now, which is a form of cultural Marxism. It's 194 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 1: getting them now to the point that this is I mean, 195 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: it's now openly blasphemous. Okay, what they're doing now, and 196 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:22,719 Speaker 1: nobody's doing anything because they're so in bed, forgive me, 197 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 1: with human trafficking because that's what illegal immigration ultimately is. 198 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,320 Speaker 1: And the Church needs the money because of all the 199 00:13:33,360 --> 00:13:37,679 Speaker 1: sex abuse scandals in the lawsuits, so they're desperate for cash. 200 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:44,079 Speaker 1: They need the cash, and these globalist organizations, these NGOs, 201 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 1: who have been bringing in an army of illegals go 202 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 1: to the churches in particular. Again, it's not just the 203 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 1: Catholic Church. There are other some Protestant churches are involved 204 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 1: as well. But still Catholic Church is a big player 205 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: in this and they're getting billions, they're making billions of 206 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:06,720 Speaker 1: dollars out of it, so they have a financial self 207 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:12,120 Speaker 1: interest in pushing this. And that's why I say this 208 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,439 Speaker 1: respectfully to the Pope who's come out now with another 209 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 1: ridiculous claim, this time about Muslims. Okay, but he's going 210 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 1: on about, you know, the migrant, the migrant, the migrant, 211 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: and this was not just the current Pope, previous pope, 212 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: Pope francis same thing. You are financially compromised when you 213 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: make that kind of a statement because you are taking 214 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 1: in vast amounts of cash, so you have a financial 215 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: vested interest in what you say. And I'm sorry, it's wrong, 216 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:52,720 Speaker 1: it's unethical and it's immoral. Six one seven two six 217 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:58,360 Speaker 1: six sixty eight sixty eight agree, disagree Keith in Avon. 218 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 1: Thanks for holding Keith, and. 219 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:05,360 Speaker 8: Welcome Jeff, Jeff person. 220 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 9: Foremost, I want to thank you for what you do, okay. Second, 221 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 9: I want to reach my voice out individually to every listener, 222 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 9: one on one me to you listening right now, Merry Christmas, 223 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:26,680 Speaker 9: happy Honkah, and good loving, strong vibes for anything you celebrate. 224 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,520 Speaker 1: God bless you, really, God bless you. No, Merry Christmas, 225 00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: happy Honkah, Thank you very much, keep going, my friend. 226 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 2: I look at that. 227 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 9: I'm no theologian. I know the Bible enough to be 228 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,440 Speaker 9: able to speak on it, but I, you know, whatever, 229 00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 9: But I look for things that aren't in there, because 230 00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 9: everyone nippicks and looks and tries to draw something from 231 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 9: every word of the Bible. But wouldn't it make sense 232 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 9: if there were a character in the Bible where Mary 233 00:15:53,920 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 9: and Joseph come to Bethlehem. They're knocking on all the 234 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 9: doors and everyone just slams the door in their face. 235 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 4: And is no one. 236 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 9: Who just said, yeah, come on in, use my house, 237 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 9: do whatever you need to do, take it over. It's fine. 238 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 9: That's not in the Bible, is it. 239 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 4: It's just not there. It would be a perfect story 240 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:12,360 Speaker 4: to have. 241 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 9: It would be a wonderful character to speak on for 242 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 9: two thousand years. 243 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 4: But human nature is that we. 244 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:25,040 Speaker 9: Are secure for ourselves and our families first, and then 245 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 9: generous to others. Not selfish, not in a bad way, 246 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 9: but you have to make sure that whoever is coming 247 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:36,040 Speaker 9: into your home is someone you know, someone you trust 248 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:37,760 Speaker 9: when you want to open it up to not just 249 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 9: some random stranger knocking on the door. You know, I'll 250 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 9: drive you to the hospital if you're pregnant. Holy crap, 251 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 9: but you're not given birth in my living room floor, 252 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 9: like you know, So like the whole story of Jesus 253 00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:53,120 Speaker 9: and whatnot, really look at what's not there as well 254 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 9: as what's there. 255 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:59,320 Speaker 1: Oh my god, seriously, the previous caller, grand slam, disc 256 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:03,600 Speaker 1: grand slam. That's why baby Jesus is born in a manger. 257 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: You're right, he's not born in someone's home. You're absolutely right, 258 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,360 Speaker 1: you know. And what gets me is, and I don't 259 00:17:15,359 --> 00:17:18,480 Speaker 1: mean this in any disrespectful way, but you know, Keith, 260 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 1: you and the previous caller, you know, you're not expert theologians. 261 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 1: You haven't spent years studying in a seminary. And these 262 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,159 Speaker 1: are trained priests or the one in Evanston, he's a 263 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 1: trained reverence. Okay, just very quickly, many of you are saying, well, Jeff, 264 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:37,959 Speaker 1: what can we do to expose this priest, to drive 265 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: this story to really let more people know about what's 266 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:45,800 Speaker 1: going on, because this is beyond outrageous. I did, I 267 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: don't what you call it now a tweet and it's 268 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 1: an X but whatever, an ex a tweet whatever.

Thanks for holding hal and. 280 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 4: Welcome, hey, Jeff, a great show. 281 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:47,399 Speaker 2: Hey, you don't have to be a theologian to understand 282 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:51,000 Speaker 2: why Christ happened to be in Bethlehem, Luke, Chapter two. 283 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 2: I'll just a few verses. In those days, Caesar Augustus 284 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 2: issued a decree that a sense it should be taken 285 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 2: up the entire Roman world, and everyone went to his 286 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 2: town to register so Joseph also went up to the 287 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,919 Speaker 2: town of Nazareth and Gali, to Judea, to Bethlehem, to 288 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 2: the town of David, because he belonged to the house 289 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 2: in the line of David. He went at a register 290 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 2: with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him 291 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 2: and was expecting a child. That is simple. The government 292 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,159 Speaker 2: told him the kale that Caesar told him to be 293 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 2: in in Bethlehem, because we're doing a census of the 294 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:29,439 Speaker 2: whole Roman world. Also, if any of your listeners just 295 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,439 Speaker 2: go to their webs a search engine and put in 296 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:38,399 Speaker 2: Bible in the border. Borders are mentioned at least forty 297 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:42,280 Speaker 2: two times in the scriptures, and it's always to protect, 298 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 2: to keep certain elements out and to ensure the integrity 299 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 2: of the land. 300 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: So how you're dead on and how you're right on 301 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 1: both counts obviously, but even the most obvious point. I mean, 302 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 1: I'm saying, almost like the sky is blue. Look at 303 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 1: how nations are mentioned in the Bible constantly. I don't 304 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 1: care Old Testament, New Testament. My point is God, or 305 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: obviously God ordained nations. He wanted there to be countries, nations, peoples, 306 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: distinct nations, distinct peoples with borders. Hello again, as a 307 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 1: lay person, even I can figure this out. What is heaven? 308 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 1: What is heaven? It's a place where it's the Kingdom 309 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: of God where you you know, you're lucky if you 310 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 1: get in right, you have to you know, God has 311 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: to say you're worthy to come into Heaven and be 312 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 1: in My kingdom. They don't allow anybody in. No illegal 313 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: aliens are allowed in. In other words, God must say 314 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,920 Speaker 1: you are allowed. You have to ask. God has to judge, 315 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 1: and then if he says yes, you're allowed to come in. So, 316 00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 1: if Heaven can have borders, if the Kingdom of God 317 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 1: can have borders, And you know, most people are you 318 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: know that listen to the show aren't Catholics because we 319 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 1: have a big audience, and it's in the South, it's 320 00:21:10,600 --> 00:21:12,880 Speaker 1: in the Midwest, it's But my point is, if you're 321 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 1: a Catholic, the Vatican has borders, the Catholic Church has 322 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 1: the Seat of the Catholic Church has borders. It literally 323 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:24,040 Speaker 1: has a forty foot wall.
