Obviously not everywhere, but 233 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 3: there are many organizations, the Methodists, the Presbyterians, where people 234 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 3: who started in those organizations they no longer believe the Bible. 235 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 3: They've shut their missions programmed down. If you're a minister 236 00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:55,040 Speaker 3: and you feel directionless, you don't like the leadership that 237 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 3: you're in.

People want to be a part of 260 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 1: something that matters. 261 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 3: Why do you say there's a gap or a vacuum 262 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 3: in that space? Where are you seeing on the road 263 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 3: where you're at? 264 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:26,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think people have essentially found themselves like maybe 265 00:17:26,600 --> 00:17:29,959 Speaker 1: like abandoned by the former networks that they've been in 266 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 1: with people who are incapable of speaking to the moment 267 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:35,880 Speaker 1: that the church finds itself in, Like not every moment 268 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 1: under Heaven is created equal. And then this is a 269 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 1: real unique moment for the harvest in America. And you 270 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 1: still have some networks leaders or denominations that are running 271 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: like an operating system from nineteen ninety five for a 272 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 1: church that's in twenty twenty five. And so they're like 273 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:58,080 Speaker 1: looking for like the sons of Issachar who know the 274 00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:01,360 Speaker 1: times in the seasons. And so to me that that's 275 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 1: that's the biggest thing that I see. It's it's just 276 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: folks who've been there. It's like they're still playing Tech 277 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: Mobile on Super Nintendo and it's like we're we're in 278 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,400 Speaker 1: the PS five world. You got to have people who 279 00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 1: can speak contextually to the season that we're in the 280 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 1: open window and uh, man, I think I think that 281 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:24,639 Speaker 1: Ministeria Network's going to pop off. 282 00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 3: I too, so we'd love to have you.

I would not 291 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 3: miss that one. Next three arrested after a youth baseball 292 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:59,119 Speaker 3: coach shot while saying pregame prayer on Texas ballfield. You 293 00:18:59,119 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 3: remember that, Can we dig the video up on that? 294 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 3: There was a guy with a little league and they 295 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 3: were saying prayer before they started practice and he got 296 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:12,480 Speaker 3: shot and it wasn't one shot. There were shots rattling off, 297 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:16,240 Speaker 3: so he got shot, protected the players with his body 298 00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 3: even after he got shot, and then hurried him off 299 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 3: the field. So I remember when they broke the story, 300 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,880 Speaker 3: they said that these guys were just doing target shooting 301 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 3: eight hundred yards oy or something and a bullet got loose. 302 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 3: But then apparently they realized that narrative was full of 303 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 3: crap after they've been arrested in for deadly conduct, which 304 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:39,879 Speaker 3: how anybody did that other story? And you see that 305 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:43,360 Speaker 3: the guy in the middle has a much greater commitment 306 00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 3: to going to a barber than the guy on the left. 307 00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: The dude in the middle is giving me like isis 308 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:50,159 Speaker 1: training camp vibes? 309 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,439 Speaker 3: Yeah? And then do you have more? Do you have 310 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:54,159 Speaker 3: the other slide where it says their names or no? 311 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 3: They're all like, gee, hottist names. So they love people 312 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 3: praying in Texas and shot the next bro had more 313 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 3: sins to be cleansed. This is insane. This is not 314 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 3: a joke. This really happened. Wat's this baptism, boss, We're 315 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,000 Speaker 3: gonna start from getting before we do. Your church needs 316 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 3: a breakthrough. If they're doing baptisms and they smell that. 317 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 3: I think that's meant to like wash an infant in 318 00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 3: three you need, you need a prosperity breakthrough. From the beginning, 319 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 3: they holding them up. I mean, that's attempted murder at 320 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 3: that point. 321 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're waterboarding that dude. 322 00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,640 Speaker 3: He was struggling at the end. They got masks on anybody. 323 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 3: I just want to tell you, you know what's in the 324 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:04,440 Speaker 3: passes in the past, but if you're a pastor and 325 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 3: you ever did a baptism wearing a mask, you're probably 326 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:14,200 Speaker 3: gonna go to hell from the beginning, fuss and I 327 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:15,800 Speaker 3: don't want to keep bringing it up, but you are 328 00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 3: such an idiot if you ever to think back on 329 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,119 Speaker 3: all the churches that did water baptisms wearing a mask 330 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,399 Speaker 3: in a pool, like at somebody's house, Like, do you 331 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:29,640 Speaker 3: have any understanding you were so afraid of, like any 332 00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 3: getting any publicity. Yes, we're doing baptisms, but we're taking 333 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 3: all precautions wearing a mask. Do you know how unhealthy 334 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 3: it is to wear a cloth over your face while 335 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 3: being submerged.

I hate when I 396 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 3: during election season, it's like, have you ever noticed if 397 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:16,200 Speaker 3: you watch live streams, pastors set out to preach about 398 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 3: who to vote for in voting biblical values, but it 399 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 3: gets so tense in their church because they've never taken 400 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:23,640 Speaker 3: a stand. It's like you, everybody knows how you vote 401 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 3: and feel, so when you preach on it, there's applause 402 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 3: because you've run all those other people out. But these 403 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,159 Speaker 3: other people stay quiet for three and a half years. 404 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 3: Then all of a sudden, get political and it gets 405 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 3: real quiet, and they go from like you can tell 406 00:25:37,560 --> 00:25:41,479 Speaker 3: they started off planning in their notes to take a stand, 407 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,360 Speaker 3: but then it just goes into that neutral like you said, 408 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,720 Speaker 3: Whi's not about the donkey or the elephant, It's about 409 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 3: the lamb. Like, no matter whether Trump wins or common winds, 410 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,199 Speaker 3: Jesus is still on the chase. What does that have 411 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 3: to do. Jesus is on the throne in Syria, right, 412 00:25:57,560 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 3: it's not helping much well. 413 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:01,919 Speaker 1: And then they'll these sermons that have gone for fifty 414 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: to fifty five minutes, and at the end of them, 415 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:07,760 Speaker 1: dumb talking you can't even know what they said. What 416 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: are you even talking about? I'm more confused. I don't 417 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,359 Speaker 1: even know what gender I am. After they get none talking. 418 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,760 Speaker 1: And so they always say it's the you know, I 419 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,280 Speaker 1: just don't want to vote for the lesser of two evils, 420 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 1: and you know, they're both bad. And it's like looking 421 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 1: at a eighty five year old who smokes three packs 422 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 1: a day, who's dying a stage four cancer and they 423 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 1: have COVID and they're in hospice care, and then an 424 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: eighteen year old who has the flu and saying, well, 425 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:38,439 Speaker 1: they're both sick, and it's like, yeah, that's true in 426 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:42,120 Speaker 1: what sense correct, but it's not to the same degree 427 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 1: that they're both sick. And so these guys they think 428 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 1: they sound like so profound and they just sound like 429 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 1: as clowns. I mean it like it's it's it's like 430 00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: so on its face ridiculous. It doesn't. But they feel 431 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:02,160 Speaker 1: like we're appealing to the We're not in the political binary. 432 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:07,160 Speaker 1: We're appealing to like the broader. Yeah, we're pulling everybody up. 433 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 1: And it doesn't even really matter how you vote, because 434 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 1: how many of you know we're just you know, it's 435 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 1: just it's so gay. 436 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:18,600 Speaker 3: It is gay and I and I hate how they 437 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 3: it's like said, like we found a higher way, like 438 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,399 Speaker 3: what lower IQ people would tell you to vote for 439 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 3: Trump of a Kamala. But for me, it's not about that, 440 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,919 Speaker 3: It's about Jesus's only it's like, right you are. I 441 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:32,439 Speaker 3: would love to sit any of those ministers down and 442 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:34,919 Speaker 3: just ridicule them on air. They want to be able 443 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,719 Speaker 3: to defend any of their positions, you know what I mean, right, 444 00:27:37,800 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 3: But it's just like you get everybody clapping we should 445 00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:43,639 Speaker 3: the church shouldn't lead right, and the church shouldn't lean left. 446 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,920 Speaker 3: The church should stand. It's like, well, tell me what 447 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 3: what position you can take a stand on that's not 448 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 3: right leaning right? 449 00:27:51,040 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 1: And this isn't like the nineteen sixties. You know we're 450 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 1: not talking about. 451 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 3: Like business owners versus workers. 452 00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 1: Right, you're talking about two parties who don't don't agree 453 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: on on biological gender, marriage, life in the womb, basic 454 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:09,240 Speaker 1: like fundamental transcendent truth. This isn't about who wants a 455 00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:11,840 Speaker 1: social safety net and who doesn't want a social safety net, 456 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: and so it's just the most like cowardly form of communications. 457 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 1: It's such like just this totally false appeal to nuanced intellect. 458 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: People see through it. It's just so ridiculous. 459 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 3: Intelligent people see through it. You want a church full 460 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:36,919 Speaker 3: of clapping seals, and that's why you have. You know, 461 00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 3: it's interesting when you look at the like like there's 462 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 3: churches that are way bigger than mine and bigger than yours, 463 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,200 Speaker 3: even though yours is double the size of mind. But 464 00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,400 Speaker 3: they're giving is like ten or twenty times less than 465 00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:54,120 Speaker 3: ours because they appeal to morons right and keep them 466 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 3: as warrants. There's nothing wrong with starting off as a moron. 467 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:02,240 Speaker 3: But you know, church should make you intelligent and dominant, 468 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 3: and you know, you're covenant with God should make you 469 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 3: a conquer So when you're always gearing to these people 470 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:09,520 Speaker 3: that don't even know that it's maybe not a good 471 00:29:09,520 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 3: idea to vote pro abortion, anti everything that the Bible 472 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 3: is for. You end up with a big in a big, 473 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:25,960 Speaker 3: ineffective non you know, like nonexistent church. You got fifteen 474 00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 3: thousand people that come every weekend and nobody in the 475 00:29:28,320 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 3: city even those you exist, right, Whereas like that you 476 00:29:31,480 --> 00:29:34,840 Speaker 3: do it Russell's way. You've got four thousand people and 477 00:29:34,880 --> 00:29:39,000 Speaker 3: the whole nation is like keeping an eye on what 478 00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 3: you're doing. 479 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like these like overweight, cumbersome congregations that they 480 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: might draw a crowd on a Sunday, but they really 481 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:54,240 Speaker 1: have no consequence. It's like it's like if Chris Christie 482 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 1: was your congregation. You know, it's like big, it's lumbering, 483 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 1: but it's generally non effective. 484 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 3: It's right, by the way, why the sleeves rolled up 485 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 3: are you doing like wood shop in the back between services? 486 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 3: You're repairing something at. 487 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 1: The church, whittling a bow and arrow, appealing. 488 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 3: To the working man by rolling up the sleeves. All right, 489 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 3: take it away, your big dummy race. 490 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 5: Some kind of revisionist approach to history like the sixteen 491 00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 5: nineteen project, or adopt CRT approaches to politics or education. 492 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 5: Those approaches are often as worldly and problematic as what 493 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,520 Speaker 5: they're trying to correct. Critical race theory is wrong, our 494 00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 5: cultural preferences. 495 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:35,960 Speaker 1: Hear me, they're not wrong, and no one should ever 496 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: tell you they're wrong. 497 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 5: And anybody that's ever told you that, if you've interpreted 498 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,960 Speaker 5: something I've said, that means that I was not telling 499 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 5: you correctly. 500 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,080 Speaker 1: It's not wrong. The loss of. 501 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 5: Religious liberties in this country, or the killing of unmbre life, 502 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 5: those are not white evangelical concerns.

They had the guy's unhittable and pull 675 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,160 Speaker 3: uncle destroys him one more time. 676 00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 1: The rest, of course, is history. 677 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 12: Boost I could root for Seattle. 678 00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:18,680 Speaker 3: M next. 679 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:24,640 Speaker 1: Most people in the country all the same, all the same. 680 00:40:25,040 --> 00:40:26,759 Speaker 1: That's really the dominant. 681 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,319 Speaker 12: You owe it to your husband to never look like 682 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:32,440 Speaker 12: that understanding of how. 683 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 3: That's an open, irreconcilable differences. 684 00:40:37,239 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 13: And it's not surprised. 685 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:43,719 Speaker 3: We had irreconcilable differences. I felt like she should look 686 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:46,520 Speaker 3: like a woman, and she wanted those past plates. 687 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:50,360 Speaker 11: It's it's all car related, but but it's it's. 688 00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:58,640 Speaker 13: People also, you know, marching and protesting it clinics with 689 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:00,000 Speaker 13: probortion simons. 690 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 3: Again, you're not You don't even have the ability to 691 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:08,360 Speaker 3: get pregnant. What do you care? Plus, I know I 692 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:10,200 Speaker 3: bring this up all the time, but I don't understand 693 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 3: why it's all these postmen apostle women that are so 694 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:15,240 Speaker 3: concerned about abortion. It makes no sense. 695 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:18,839 Speaker 1: It's like Rosie O'Donnell leaving the country. Yes over that 696 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:20,759 Speaker 1: over Roe v. Wade getting overturned. 697 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 3: You're an old lesbian. You're not gonna get pregnant.

It doesn't make sense. 700 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:32,840 Speaker 3: It's not this is not like from a pro life standpoint, 701 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 3: it doesn't make sense. Why you care about something that 702 00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:38,200 Speaker 3: you can't do. It'd be like me fighting for like 703 00:41:38,600 --> 00:41:41,759 Speaker 3: changes in the rules of Little League Baseball right to 704 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:45,440 Speaker 3: allow me to hit. I'm not playing right. You're not 705 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:48,400 Speaker 3: getting pregnant. No one's going near you. You had a 706 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:50,520 Speaker 3: slim chance of getting pregnant when you were of age 707 00:41:50,560 --> 00:41:54,720 Speaker 3: to have babies, and at this point it doesn't matter. 708 00:41:55,239 --> 00:41:58,479 Speaker 3: So why are you so passionate about killing babies? Keep going. 709 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:02,799 Speaker 13: It's taking out out of context the reality of what's 710 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 13: happening biologically when ninety percent of abortions are happening in 711 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:11,000 Speaker 13: the first twelve weeks, doesn't look anything like that. 712 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:11,880 Speaker 1: That great the picture. 713 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:15,560 Speaker 13: Okay, then, yeah, is a prenate very close to birth, 714 00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:18,760 Speaker 13: and that is not what's happening in abortion. 715 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 3: It is happening. You guys were fighting for third trimester 716 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:25,399 Speaker 3: abortions and the ability to let the kid die if 717 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:28,360 Speaker 3: the abortion was unsuccessful. It was born anyway. If we 718 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 3: let you people decide, you'd give the parents, so the 719 00:42:30,719 --> 00:42:32,840 Speaker 3: kids started first grade that decide whether they wanted to 720 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:33,440 Speaker 3: keep it or not. 721 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:38,600 Speaker 1: I want ICE to deport these people, absolutely, like we 722 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,200 Speaker 1: let some of the legal immigrants state. I want ICE 723 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:43,600 Speaker 1: to deport these people. 724 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:45,359 Speaker 3: How can you be that unattroactive? 725 00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:47,759 Speaker 1: That's a skill, it is. 726 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:54,040 Speaker 3: It's like you put effort into not looking nice. Holy Moly, brutal. 727 00:42:54,640 --> 00:43:00,359 Speaker 4: Next, this morning, before we pray, I want to lean 728 00:43:00,440 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 4: into some of the political tension in our country and 729 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:12,520 Speaker 4: the recent assassination of gentleman named Charlie Kirk, who was 730 00:43:13,400 --> 00:43:19,239 Speaker 4: assassinated this past Thursday. I believe and I've written out 731 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:25,279 Speaker 4: of statement here. Two Corinthians, Chapter ten, verse three through 732 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 4: five reads this way, for though we walk in the flesh, 733 00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 4: we are not waging war according to the flesh. For 734 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:40,320 Speaker 4: the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, 735 00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:45,799 Speaker 4: but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments 736 00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 4: and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, 737 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:55,160 Speaker 4: and we take every thought captive to obey Christ. In 738 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 4: this text, Paul is reminding us that as believers, our 739 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:04,480 Speaker 4: battle is not a physical battle. It's a spiritual battle 740 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:09,520 Speaker 4: God has called us to be a part of, and 741 00:44:09,560 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 4: it is therefore not fought with carnal weapons, but with 742 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 4: spiritual ones. 743 00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 1: You haven't said anything. 744 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 4: And I think in this political tension that we live in, 745 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 4: Charlie Kirk and other political activists, particularly some on the 746 00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:35,759 Speaker 4: evangelical right, often see ideas and policies that claim to 747 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 4: be Christian, but they're fought with in a carnal posture. 748 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:48,320 Speaker 1: They're fighting for Jesus. With anger would be more exciting. 749 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,600 Speaker 4: And the danger of that is when you fight spiritual 750 00:44:51,640 --> 00:44:55,040 Speaker 4: battles in a cardinal way, the world responds with that 751 00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:56,000 Speaker 4: same carnality. 752 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 1: We know how to do world other than you. Right, 753 00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 1: So what was he wearing? 754 00:45:04,280 --> 00:45:13,440 Speaker 14: I denounced that shouldn't be hard. It's wicked, that's obvious 755 00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:16,680 Speaker 14: having said that, But. 756 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:21,120 Speaker 1: It is also wicked to celebrate his death. That it 757 00:45:21,200 --> 00:45:23,919 Speaker 1: is carnal. To celebrate his death. 758 00:45:24,920 --> 00:45:28,400 Speaker 4: To lack empathy for someone who doesn't have empathy for 759 00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:30,440 Speaker 4: you is to live in carnality. 760 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 3: Great job on sound. 761 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 4: At the same time, while he fought for ideals that 762 00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:43,200 Speaker 4: he believed were Christian, I also denounced the way he 763 00:45:43,239 --> 00:45:48,320 Speaker 4: carried himself, and especially the way he talked about black people. 764 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,720 Speaker 4: So here's what I want us to remember as a church. 765 00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:57,600 Speaker 4: What I need all of us to know. People are 766 00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:03,200 Speaker 4: not defined by their ideology. They're defined by the image 767 00:46:03,239 --> 00:46:08,560 Speaker 4: of God. Genesis one says God created them in his 768 00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:12,080 Speaker 4: own image. So here's what we got to understand. Charlie 769 00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:18,160 Speaker 4: Kirk at his core is not a Republican or a conservative. 770 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 4: He is a child of God made in the image 771 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 4: of God. Who have right wing positions? 772 00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:28,160 Speaker 14: How do we stop leaders pastors from being co opted 773 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:30,959 Speaker 14: by what they think is the faith narrative that best 774 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:31,960 Speaker 14: suits where they are. 775 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:33,640 Speaker 1: Sorry, I wish I had. 776 00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 3: A better race get off social media. 777 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:46,359 Speaker 15: And by that I don't just mean, of course I'm 778 00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:52,160 Speaker 15: on social media now less than before, but I think 779 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 15: there's an important role that spiritual folks. 780 00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:59,000 Speaker 3: I'm having lunch with the pastor of Pastor Russell, and 781 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,280 Speaker 3: I just looked at the restaurant.
