You can support a chosen generation and make a tax-deductible donation by visiting www.chosengeneration.com and now back to a chosen generation with pastor Grace radio knows best. Thanks much greener. I know you have a choice in where you can listen each and every day.

I'm so pleased to welcome my next guest of the program. He is chaplain Gordon chaps Kling and Schmidt, former chaplain retired from the United States Navy and he is the host of praying in Jesus name I pray in Jesus name. You can find the website as well, which is also pray in Jesus name. He is listed as a contributor here at should generation ready up because he's on a program on a monthly basis and were excited to welcome him to that monthly visit with us chaps what will board great to have you, sir morning, thank you brother thank you so very much. Well, you know, I believe that there is a lot of evidence to suggest that Christianity is a a target here in our country. Certainly, you know we got the Joe Kennedy case is coming up before the Supreme Court and and I think you or lease we hope it's going to get the scene before the Supreme Court and you know that's pretty egregious situation but Christianity is been persecuted all across our country and we know that communism, which is something that is rising in this nation does not does not want Christianity thriving in a matter fact it can't have Christianity thriving in our country. In order for them to put forth their ideologies. I know you put out all the time a lot on your on your emails, issues and places were Christianity is is under attack but relative to the specific issue of the Marxist ideology and the concept of communism and how it is infiltrated so much of Christianity and Christian churches. In particular, can you talk about what meet what you may be saying and some of the concerns you have regarding the threat of communism to Christianity here in America well toward our show is a simple thing now probably thinking among you or what you generally young people older than 80. They're taking hold, showing that 40 young people are now in the cold, but none go.

They don't believe in God or they don't know or they don't care info on cold but less than 5% of the population, but but people who are agnostic made a great relief to be I get back in the 90s. I would say about 20% of the population out 43% of millennial are in the category of religion churches have an active youth program to mentor the next generation of young people were not focused on are no older but for a young person to learn the gospel by each R when you are old you will still have the same religious belief, or when you were 13 years old churches that have program to mentor young people. I think the lack of God in the mentoring of young people that I have been so sacred. You should generation I wanted to bring up as I got some of Barney's research in one of my most recent post that I put up and I had failed to remember to realize that I that my video is playing live on my page so I guess the good news is this we know that you can watch the video Jen generation ready or not, right now, live like an excellent, excellent.

Well, you know I it's interesting right because I know a couple things you know, 72% of the people.

According to Martin argue that people are basically good. There is there some challenges with that it it contradicts Scripture 71% consider feelings experience or the input of friends family is her most trusted source of moral guidance and 52% claimed the determining moral truth is up to each individual. There are no moral absolutes that apply to everyone all the time that in particular chaps to me as it is of is a very scary statistic moral guidance and fidelity to present the truth is greater generation World War II era fighters defended America and Europe. They have a much greater affinity to Christianity. The course of majority are Christian and young people that are more worried about what we want them communism. I think a lot about coming in through our the teachers unions and most public school are run by elected Democrat.

We just call and election in Virginia where the major candidate for the Democratic Party argued that parents should be Out of public pool and think God heard McCulloch walk that election because that but I read a quote on Facebook this week. It is to allow your enemy, your children, and I don't but yet because it make you wonder why we allowing public school teacher teach left ideology or socialism or even commented logically work on in both college: result in economic factor young people to get well. He had good idea, but obviously whenever the implement that they resulted. I think we've got to be really careful with with you know that particular concept because that that becomes part of the indoctrination process.

It's incremental and communism. The girl is is to incrementally with each passing generation to bring incremental changes in the mindset and part of that is, is the concept that man is in inherently good, I mean everybody wants to believe that their good or think that they're good, but the Bible clearly tells us that that's not the case for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. We have a nature within us that draws us into doing things that are the exact opposite of of God's objective moral standards.

The good news and this is what I think is failed to be preached. These days chaps.

The good news is is that Jesus Christ came to set you free. And John three really lays it out when Nicodemus says one. How can a man be born again, because Jesus says you must be born again to be set free from that human nature from that desire to pursue darkness over lights and it goes back to Paul even talking about any Galatians were crucified with Christ. It's something that happens that only God can do inside of you and that is you have to allow your old sin nature to literally die on that cross. And the good news. The true freedom and liberty for which our Founders established our country is the life, liberty and pursuit of happiness that one can have on the other side of the cross right here right now in America and that was the American experiment if you will. Was this idea that Christianity could lead the way to a great nation and show how true Christianity would make a difference. Marxism is Satan. This attempts at trying to counter for that by eliminating God and making government God and and and that's our battle today chaps. I think the Bible they will work with nothing further from the truth. All the parable of appellant actually when God comes the judge. You can take money away the foolish man who squandered one pallet and give it the capital and felt them into the brightly Mart about and I think also that the fight over the book of acts they voluntarily gave there will charity to feed the poor thing. Never the moment the commented that the model used the government more green taxation property, but the fight over obviously very favorable.

Charity Think Different and just because somebody might commit a single one of the diocese virus. What about that we just very quickly hit that because Ananias and Sapphire had agreed with the community that they were going to bring a certain amount of the property. The, the conditional sale of their property was conditioned upon how they had made relative to what they were going to bring into the house of God for the poor to be able to to bless the porn take care of people within the community and they withheld a portion of the vowel that they had made.

That's the issue. They made a vow before God for what they would do a voluntary vow I might add.

It was a mandatory vow. The story is, is that the condition of the sale was based upon an understanding of what they had promised they would do that more right after this is Adam I'm always here and we are sponsors of the chosen generation sponsoring this program has been a real blessing to our business and I want to join me generation has to call him say for Saverio for six or know your business will be blessed.

In fact the root of the Greek word for word the in the phrase one refers to equalizing scale.

That means there ought to be a perfect harmony between you are and how you live when you don't live as a Christian should live, you fail your commitment to Christ. Your obedience to God cannot be conformity to rules and regulations based on fear or legalistic pride.

Rather, make sure your obedience is conformity to righteousness based on gratitude and love Christ this is John MacArthur trusting your lives on. I am for marriage between a man and woman I am for life from conception I am for following the Bible and I believe that our founders started this nation who principles I'm in support of our military and believe that America should play a role in security. I believe our Constitution was intended for immoral people and that the Bible contains the only true moral code. I believe we are all sinners and the God in his grace and mercy, sent his son Jesus Christ to die for our sins, and that if we will confess our sins, he is just and righteous to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. I believe salvation is not just accomplished a little prayer that is found in how transformation is lived out Jesus is to be the Lord of our lives and we should follow the precepts. This is not legalism works, but a life lived out in love and honor the one who died for my sins.

Faith without works is dead and is no faith at all. I believe that we will fall and that we need to have a repentant heart that God will ultimately bring us into perfect action. Jesus Christ spirit man perfected and soulless man in progress. I believe that we are not to live in guilt and shame of the fall, but we were hands and get up and move closer to Jesus.

I believe that if our nation will repent and turn from wickedness to God will heal our land. I believe that as a Christian I must occupy till he comes and that's a call evil wicked and to learn about those acts as a part of the mandated Christianity to love also means to be willing to take the risk necessary to confront a friend with the truth in hopes that their heart will be turned because their life matters, even if it means in that moment they will possibly hate me. It means that I must risk scorn to stand for truth and that I can never sit silently by while evil attempts to conquer the world. God is my everything and Jesus is the love of my life that does not make me weak but strong, silent and not fearful, courageous. Therefore, if you're my friend may not fully that I share what I share because I care if you strongly disagree with these beliefs.

They are not debatable for me and you can if you choose unfriendly, I do not say this in anger but in love. I wish for you eyes to see and ears to hear that Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation and God, not man gets to decide what is truth life and the way God bless you.

Now back to chosen generation with your host Pastor Greg. Don't forget you can get more chosen generation, at www.chosengeneration.com and look imagine generation ready and where no topic is off-limits and everything filtered through biblical glasses.

Well, very pleased to have with me Gordon chaps clean Schmidt again.

And be sure and check out where he is broadcasting more than likely, you can watch his program as well and he does great interviews brings on the incredible guests in and covers a lot of very important stuff a lot like we do here on children generation rate well chaps some good news out of the out of the great state of Texas. I just kind of happened to reside, but said Texas had an amendment and it was the Texas freedom to worship act and and Texans you know very in large numbers overwhelmingly supported this. This is going to stop government whether it city, county or state from closing churches for what whatever particular thought process they're having in mind. I think this is a great thing chaps voted overwhelmingly amendment, including a nursing home amendment or caregiving protect the overall repair amendment of the.now the new member about the government are not permitted. We would work or ugly and enlightened in wake of the 19 prescription from local government, including those in prayer and implementing the private in favor of the new religious freedom act now in the direct quote from the no human authority thought in any worker can hear with the right answer in matters of note shall ever be given by any law anywhere with propriety mode or mode of worship but you can't one religion over another. But you cannot. Their ability to worship his mother.

Quote political state may not enact, adopt or issue that you order, proclamation, although that prohibit or limit including conducted in church or congregation. The work in the state by a religious organization of a fairly old bully." The course is interesting how you know media covers these things because you got media that are out there blasting Texas saying that you know Texans don't care about health, safety, and so on and so on. Looking you note to me, freedom of religion is something that is enshrined in our Constitution and it should be the decision of each individual to be able to decide whether or not they want to go and attend services on a Sunday morning or Saturday night or whenever their church is meeting and that decision is not something that should be interfered with or hindered by government entities or government agencies it it again it's it's a freedom issue. It's set a personal decision for someone to be able to make chaps marked off where God voted against the freedom where statewide or academic are really promoting anti-Christian daughter again with the freedom it literally wanted the government, and start on your characters member at Calgary, Alberta, Canada. We have A lot of heat on so talking about. Thank God protect America and America were I think the people celebrating but with everything I would owe here in Colorado and again you know this is something that was voted by the people, and thankfully, you know, we were able to get the message through to our legislators to say listen we want protection because we apparently needed, even though as you said this is enshrined in the Constitution, the government shall make no law that inhibits the free exercise of religious practices and yet we see this happening all across the country where this battle is going in one real quickly to fit if you don't mind Jess and maybe you've been following this bedside judge Saul if you're familiar with Judd has put out. Finally, his movie enemies within the church was a crowd funded project and and and that film is finally had its it's release and there's a trailer, but you go to enemies within the church.com and it talks about why it's so important that you maintain and have a true biblical worldview as an American because our American Constitution. Our Declaration of Independence were birthed out of a great awakening they were birthed out of a a Christian biblical worldview movement that declared that all men are created equal. Did we create a perfect union. When we began, though we did not, but it said so that we might create a more perfect union and our founders understood that the means by which you accomplish that was the advancement of the gospel of Jesus Christ and it was that it was a critical underpinning in my opinion, chaps relative to what made America great and will make America great again all of the brand, Iowa, and get him back on our show to promote well.
