What in the world is going on and and what is God doing in the world. This Michael Brown welcome to the broadcast built up the phone lines for anything on your minds today, 866-34-TRUTH 866-34-TRUTH 87884. A little later in the broadcast I may share with you a very prescient warning from Charles Finney in July 1836 that remains relevant for us today so I may do that as well.

The first, let's let Skynet step back and think about what's happened so far in 2021 so it starts. Of course with one of the most traumatic events in modern American history.

The storming of the capital so-called insurrection. The massive crowd to rally there in DC to pray for justice in the elections. To quote stop the steel from then-President Trump saying right will walk over now to the capital and of course you know the rest of the story. Things happen that others were certainly not planning to happen. Latest reports I've read indicate that there was not some massive rush. It's a confirm that there was some not, some massive conspiratorial plants distanced on the K some planted but there it was thought this massive plan. The vast majority people that were there were there that it that's it. To pray into it to rally together that happens absolutely traumatic event and then as a result of the trunk it's playing forward so he gets impeached a second time first president who's ever been impeached twice and obviously political leanings because that now add to that the fact that there are no calls for the impeachment of Pres. Biden. This correct me if I'm wrong I'm not a historian of American presidents to correct me from wrong. I'm I'm assuming that this would be the first time in the same calendar year that there were calls to impeach two different presidents, the outgoing and the incoming that's part of the craziness we are and and then sent back to this. There is then twitter and big tech banning the menu. Still, the sitting president banning him from social media that was this year that that's major stuff that's big stuff that's unimaginable stuff that was just this year 2021. Okay, in no particular order.

We go through a number of other things that happen Israel war with Hamas. Hamas taking advantage of some emotional events and some Controversial Things Taking Pl. in Jerusalem. Now they're going to be the guardians of of the mosque and they're going to be the guardians of the sacred mountain, they are going to attack so of course you have Israel's iron Dome largely successfully defending against the missile attacks traumatic for the nation of Israel and casualties on all sides doubt that was just this year as well and then again in no particular order, but since we mentioned Israel by Mr. Netanyahu out after serving as prime minister longer than any person in Israeli history and then with an interesting coalition off Kelly Bennett getting in is the incoming prime minister than to to shift over after two years to his his counterpart. So this is again unprecedented kind of stuff this is happened all this year and then remember the Russian alleged Russian hacking of the pipeline for massive oil pipeline and for the first time since the 70s people are are lining up at at at pumps to get gas.

This happened during the.

The crisis in the 70s and that's when oil prices jump dramatically never came down to what they were before the people that are old enough to remember this again lining up to get gas again at the gas stations so this was at and wearing masks in the process because yes some of the biggest biggest news thus far in the year is research of researches of Kovic. There was the feeling that okay were getting over it and it's passing you through herd immunity. Three people being vaccinated.

For whatever reason. Life started to get back to normal in the Senate is calling for for mass to be removed. In planes because it's still mandatory and unity get on the plane. This is my what's the state regulations of federal existence… Such shift were mass and only gets the airports them will believe and you know Sen. say hey it's time to time to to end this. It's is the reason for it, and then the Delta variance sweeps and and now hospitals ICUs filled again colleague of mine fighting for his life right now. I mean this is thought was passed I was getting ready to go to Europe for a dedication of the church with your colleague of mine and right before well there we got the tickets ready to go within a week or two from now and then get word, no, actually, America's been put on the high-risk list and X number of things have to be done on earth you go away. Shift quarantining so that's change things dramatically. Morlock tells me that countries like Australia with massive lockdowns and and helicopters are patrolling, making sure that your people are abiding by the lockdowns and so that trauma the trauma on the kids education questions and on and on. So that's that's rocked our world again and then questions about the vaccines remain in back and forth the country being divided over that you know when you get preacher standing up soon you will not get vaccine. You will not wear a mask in our church. Another saying you will not come anywhere near a Cilicia vaccine and the masking so that's continued to boil again. All 2021. These these are meant to speaking in a Kantian cam got divorced and not taught about things that are just in the news on, things of of national interest of international interest. All and and and then Gov. Cuomo superstar Gov. Cuomo wins in ME for his news conferences about cold. And this is a summary accusing him of gross negligence and and blaming the deaths of thousands of elderly New Yorkers on his policies. Guzman would happen that there was a concern. There's gonna be a massive rush of patients needing hospital beds eating beds in ICU and you had a number of elderly patients there so got to clear them out to make room for the young people in the other. So that's a that's a deeply flawed policy to start making that value judgment about which life is more valuable.

Whatever. So they were now sent to nursing homes and then it spread through the nursing homes and other people say that's that's murder of thousands of people, but he gets an Emmy award and the book deal in all of this and then's sexual harassment accusations reach the point to be indicted in. He asked to resign as well most powerful political leaders in America. SunAmerica Cuomo's brother Chris, on CNN, Costley talked about his potential presidential candidate. Now he has to resign in disgrace and then you have in California Gov. Gavin Newsom who wins by a landslide and has been a popular figure you know from his days as mayor of San Francisco issuing same-sex marriage licenses years ago. Now there's a vote for recall and it's his neck and neck as to whether this the majority of Californians are going to see what we want to recall you're just sick and tired of his policies and the effect of his policies and blaming him for a lot of the problems in California.

If you look at the fastest growing states in America. Note California is not one of everyone's moving into the country. Many are moving out of I was talking to some of that move this organization from California to Nashville and and he explained that the vast majority staff was very happy to make the move because things are so shut down constricted there okay and then on on the more popular broader level, you've got that the ongoing insanity of cancel cultured Dr. Seuss Dr. Seuss, the beloved children's author has six of his books banned six books banned because of political incorrectness and an alleged racist stereotyping, and then you have the man who'd been the leading voice of the conservative movement for many many years in terms of a media voice, Rush Limbaugh dies of cancer can just does major things that happened that impacted many lives and then you get to the events of of recent days, sort completely botched withdrawal from Afghanistan again, regardless of you agreed with if you agreed with Pres. Trump's policy and what was negotiated where things were going with your agreement that are not. This is be virtually universal agreement that Pres. Biden completely botched the withdrawal strums at first get all our people out then get all our equipment out. Then destroy the bases and get the military out instead of litter. These first Lisle equipment. I'm in the towel band. They now have some of the most sophisticated military equipment in the world in large numbers and and and then as a result of the chaos, the suicide bombing takes allies of 13 of American soldiers you see the pictures.

These young people, men and women books in their 20s, married doing their best to serve the country serve the people of Afghanistan and absolute tragedy suicide bomb kills many, many others, including 13 of our own and you add to that now. According to reports as we got reports of another potential suicide bombing at the airport. So we take out the suicide bomber with a drone attack, but according to reports of red because the amount of explosives. The vehicle.

The explosion killed others, including a family with several children, so it's just it's it's a painful, difficult time atomic shaking of people and latest reports of rhythmic and wide circulation, say that the Taliban met with military leaders of America that the longer one so can we have two choices. You can control Kabul and the airport and will take the rest of the country or you just take the airport and according to this military intelligence said when is the airport were good she was, that, and now Louisiana on the anniversary of Katrina gets hit by a massive hurricane landfill considered crafts the worst we've been hit with hurricane Ida and the pictures there just everywhere you look online.

Here's here's a nursing in the hospital videotaping as the roof and allowed for the delegates ripped off by the hurricane and the debris comes especially towards the window. This is a year of great shaking great pain for many. What is God doing mixed. The line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution.

Here again is Dr. Michael Brown. We know we know in the world that Satan is at work is always at work to destroy lives always work to deceive is always at work to seduce. He's always at work to to pull people away from God's purpose is to destroy their lives. We understand that sin always. We also understand that people are work people doing things making choices. We also know that there are circumstances that arise as a result of that other words, you do this it sets that in motion we also the God is at work question is what is God doing mixed the chaos is God doing in the midst of the storm, 866-34-TRUTH 866-34-TRUTH 784. This is Michael Brown.

Welcome to the line of fire. Look, my goal is never to excite you into a state of worry and panic. My goal may be at times to awaken you to stir your heart to give you an awareness of what's happening in the world around us and then to soak you what we do what we do about how we respond was God saying, what does God want us to do in the midst of the storm. In the midst of the craziness. So if the scenario that I said before you is negative.

What is negative is a lot of pain out there lot of uncertainty. Many people asking questions that haven't asked many many people grieving and and not knowing what's coming tomorrow with it. It really is a time of upheaval.

Now, for sure. There been times afford greater upheaval in world history. We understand that there some parts the world.

If you look at say what happened to Yemen or Libya or or Syria, or Lebanon in recent years, or rock for that matter the upheaval there.

The places where ISIS is raised its head of the parts the world that have been hit by Civil War that the ravaging effects of war and the people been far greater, there then you add in the other dealing with covert also in their dealing with the other uncertainties. It's is one thing after another in the picture that we painted in the first segment is just a representative sampling of the biggest things that came to mind is a set with my team and we reflected back on the year thus far but but God is not sitting idly by God is not sitting all this so terrible at what am I going to do it was I could do something but sometimes we act as if that was God.

We act as if he was wishing or hoping, or just sitting idly by, wringing his hands in all it's really bad.

No number one God always sits enthroned as king he is always worthy of worship and in his presence is not fullness of fear, fullness of terror, fullness of anxiety, but fullness of joy in Philippians 46 rate which I just learned listening to a book by Max Lou Kato, the anxious for nothing that that Kindle if you're reading an e-book on Amazon. It can track what you're reading right so if you're reading it on your cell phone and you get home you want to read it on your E reader on your computer so it's gonna track where you been, and if you highlight something it notes that, and any to be share with others. So you're reading a book, you may not of asked for. This was like was that underline in my book also going to tell you that that this is a commonly underlined passage. According Max to Kato Mexican of the Bible is the most highlighted book on Kindle so it has more highlights of the more people underlining things is the reading and according to Maxine Kato the number one most highlighted passage is in Philippians the fourth chapter in these verses, verse six rate particular workforces. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything with prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, make requests known to God and the peace of God, the suppresses all understanding, will guard your heart and minds in Christ Jesus, that that is a key passage than adversely telling us what to meditate on and think on if you want to hearts to be at peace in our minds to be pure and wholesome but but here's here's the point that God in the midst of the craziness is worthy of worship God remains good. And when we put everything in his hands.

The American answers, you may not get solutions immediately, but you could peace is not a false peace. It's the piece of knowing God and knowing that he's in control. The many things happen contrary to his relevancy gives us freedom of choice. Many things happen. Contrary to what he desires. It's what he grieves over those things and he gives us those freedoms and we are accountable for those freedoms.

And yet, if we know him. We can trust our lives to him regardless of what the devil is doing drugs what human beings are doing. Also knowing.

In addition, that the God himself is at work that there certain things he may be bringing us judgments that there other things he may be doing to counteract what Satan is doing, but for sure he is working what is Jesus and John seven when he's asked about healing men. The Sabbath is my father is working up its amounts all my so the father is always working and always carrying out his plan and and and in the midst of what seems like craziness. The kingdom of God is being advanced I'm hearing more and more reports for more more people around the country about the Holy Spirit being poured out and many people being saved I'm hearing that a lot. I was talking to an international leader well respected international leader last week and I said I know that I know that I know that this is happening and it's going to spread all over America. So this army of evangelists. My mindset a few years back I saw tense all over America saw evangelists on the streets and church buildings preaching and equipping the saints and I so that's that's the antidote for the madness in the craziness in the upheaval that there were currently experiencing is the gospel.

Yet the gospel and Christian action lived out yes not either or gospel includes living out our faith and preach the gospel, weakening the church and preach the gospel to the lost and seen people come to faith because, to the extent we can step away from the politics of the moment. To the extent we can step away from the current events and preach Jesus in a nonpartisan way your Savior lost your inner out your child of God or child of the W under the power of sin. He been forgiven of sin through Jesus, to the extent we can do that.

People are people ready people are hungry people are thirsty people of questions people know there's got to be more people are uncertain and we are saying hey the reality is we only God we just realize it more now.

I said this to my friend. I said I know that that something is rising his ego so that I'm sure of that. I'm sure so I will reach you from Hebrews 12 that will take some calls and talk about a bunch of other things.

Hebrews chapter 12 it's it's contrasting Mount Sinai this fiscal mountain you could come to at at and that was burning with fire and and God's judgment was on those who would we dare get too close and then the heavenly Zion that we've come to in the glorious scene there now he was 1225. As a result of that see to it that you cannot refuse who speaks.

If they did not escape when they refused him worn them on earth, how much less will we, if we turn away from him who warns us from heaven. So we say because we've come to the heavenly Zion rather than to the earthy Mount Sinai. The stakes are higher at that time Sinai's voice shook the earth, but now he is promised once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens there is not seen that yet any shaking as we've had our minor compared to the final shake the words once more indicate the removing of what can be shaken, that is, created things, so that what cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken.

This, be thankful and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe for our God is a consuming fire. Deuteronomy 424 quoted here in Hebrews 1229 okay let me apply that to us right now. Let me apply that to human beings in every generation, which we've lived.

When things in our world shake the reveal what's really there. They they revealed the real state of things, when a couple that has a fragile marriage goes through real real serious trials often that marriage falls apart couple of the solid marriage goes to that same trial and they draw closer together. As a result someone full of fear and anxiety during times of national crisis. There there just an inch away from a heart attack.

It seems is because if so I will know this.

The panic and not putting someone down to send that that's what happens someone else full faith went when the shaking comes the fearful things happen. They rise up in conference we can trust God we can trust God so it's just like the refiners fire in Malachi 3 the refiners fire. That's how the Messiah came to Jerusalem 2000 years ago refiners fire brings to the surface, which will be there so you throw in silver gold looks good looks fine, but the fire so hot that that it it separates the the gold, the silver, it separates these these expensive items from the dross from the. The mixture, and that draws the impurities rise up to the surface within our skimmed away and now you have the real real deal. So what's happening now is the shaking the ongoing chaos, the uncertainty, the mile a minute of constant updates and news in your you get on social media feed in the firm pray for this was sick. This was just on this witness is one thing after another of of the suffering that's out to the pain that's out there is a it is friends a ripe time to talk about God's unshakable kingdom because we who know the Lord the midst of the chaos and confusion. The pain in the midst of that we are shouting out there's a better way. You can be certain secure forever. You have a personal relationship with God. You can actually learn to take refuge in him think that take refuge in God that that it's just like going into a cave on the side of the mountain and you go in there and you're out from the rain and the elements just that real, except more so let us take refuge in the Lord, that is fine.

Strengthen him and let's go Teledyne world. Here's the waterflood we have a better rate than the number gives the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown, the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown Lord rock that's not just religious talk. The Lord is our rock refined security in him we find strength in him and in him we need never be shaken.

This is Michael Brown. Welcome to the line of fire. Hate to get my emails I've been asking more recently because are a realize that many folks listen to us, watch us to look at my emails. I believe the be a blessing to collect a broadcast love what you get the email content because once a week. Will let you know.

We we will post special video sometimes excerpts from the line of fire.

Sometimes special costs that I've given all the videos we specially prepared is hard to keep up with everything as we put out a lot this way one email poem and then normally the first of the week, which no hate. We got a brand-new resource is available now or hate.

We've got the special resource off, we put together for you so take a moment to ask Dr. Brown funeral right now.

We live a just looking at this website foundation for economic education fee establish what 1946 that right yeah Rand Paul sent this out to people today Sen. Rand Paul Harvard Epping amount at epidemiologist says the case for covert vaccine passports was just demolished new research found that natural immunity offers exponentially more protection than COBIT 19 vaccines so this is Harvard published Harvard professor of I'm not an expert on this. I had one doctor on one medical doctor months back Grace very very serious concerns against the vaccine and have a PhD in chemistry all young earth creationist who feels very strongly that the vaccines are good I'm doing my best to say hey here's information you make an informed decision. Pray for wisdom to the research and trying not to be moved by two extremes. The extreme fear, almost like it was going to get my film is good to get everybody its own no extreme fear can understand, especially if you've lost people close to or at the extreme of presumption that vaccine on the touch many noses go to touch me on the name thing about anything because people by their very proclamation and die, but it made on the my face will that's what they said so you can say I'm really trusting God.

I believe that's the best course of actual fun stock.

Pray you do what is right before the Lord. Based on during the research. You can ask God for wisdom and getting counsel as you can because the one side is you put this in your body are perfectly healthy. You might hurt yourself for life. You might get heart condition you might have some other disease that comes as a result of this, because there's not been long-term studies or no put this in your body dive cove coming up is unlike a game is subacute, you bet $0.50 on on which team is going to win in the Little League game is all right. Here's the 50 set no real people's lives and unforeseen things are so politicized even within the church that we need to step back, take a deep breath, trust our lives a fresh Lord, I belong to you and then ask him for wisdom and make informed decisions don't stick your head in the sand. We proved in the past by respond by fear dealt with some preacher intimidate you. Either way, step back, get your head clear make an informed decision. All right with that.

And speaking of Harvard all right gospel it might my recent article hormone to come to that next I'm sure the some good coming out of Harvard and spiritually some nonsense as well.

Okay, let's go over to Terry and Rock Island, Illinois welcomes Lana far thanks for calling hello Dr. Brown how are you this fine thanks… Just want to like inaccurate your gal a bit of a break work on one adult nurses that's working in the medical field, pulling a lot hours become short staffing and color in the COBIT. Flooding through but but but I hear everything caught up on a Brockett you did on back feed and how the church should respond, and it would really help me corrupt all watt. Terry first, first, thank you for your service and decent before we go on. Can I ask you a question.

So here you are in Illinois and your colleagues you are seeing a real spike in terms of hospitalizations and people in ICU. If so, how long is that going on bigotry gone for about two months after right now were three, 40 working up a few more younger people comment no praise the Lord. They've all been able to be fully recovered by they've all had a little less than that. You know, maybe they were all like a logging meeting on which I know a lot of mainstream media says that there is an anti-vaccine spike in fuel being half blind in my and that what I've seen, that is true Phil Cooper like go. I wish acrylic on the back. You know Mike well I wish I could add more conversation with John just nursed you not yet earned a doctorate at. Later on… It's just so chary aside from expressing appreciation was nice.

He wanted to share a question you want to raise while yet one to think that with Rick after Neil went back team starter roil I have a lot of questions and unfortunately I had a lot of negative response to the vaccine thing. Don't take that.

You don't need the prudent precursor to the mark of the beast of the mark be follicle like gosh, it also but of course you the Lord have a lot of good people around me lot of dolomitic you like to hold on.

Let's look at the Bible was the Bible if they know Mike okay Revelation 1412 says it all – it's going to happen later on during the tribulation that the mark be at Terry. I sit right. The simple thing when they said this is the part of the BC can be the mark of the beast does not have a beast yet yes it is the simple answer is your three pretrip yet if if you're pretrip that would be to do with the be not be nothing pretrip would be different. Few bit, but either way right yes so that again is the extremes. If based on science.

Someone has concerns. We don't have long-term studies like I just looked at a comment from from up April on Facebook, hospitals, and filling up with covert patients. Hospitals are not filling up with covert vaccine victims. So the one hand, from everything we know that's very, very true and and I've mentioned I've lost friends to covert theirs is the laughing matter, urine eyewitness on the flipside, Terry will you make of this. I've heard now from two different people working directly with people in hospitals, so would not like fourth hand was the person said no it's my relative or my friend that was in the hospital and both of them have been told if someone comes in with covert, but they've had the vaccine put them in a different category because we don't want that to show the simile that's that's a separate subject, but I mean, so we step back and think who do we believe are what we believe or yell or things may accurately reported about about deaths because of the vaccines are being suppressed, so no people just they want accurate information.

That's the key. You know you what what I can liken what I can tell you without breaking Andy a lobster work policy. There's been no falsification or segregating of co-people come in with covert. The only thing that is being reported is the result after birth like they will state people have come in unvaccinated are having a very very rough time maybe long-term respiratory damage or heart damage. Some no. And of course the approaching are some death and as we see now, some people have come into our vaccinated and they come out surviving to come out. So that's like a matter of heard that repeatedly, but that's that's your own observation as well. You're saying that when you say young people you unfortunate see young people, but thankfully all of them have recovered out what what ages are you talking about Terry. I would say like a baboon out for the younger three pad your while yet but praise the Lord fully recovered, but with a panic moment for the parent that a court guy like Rita. You know, at such good one like with their child's life. In the course teenagers come annual like okay you're having a rough tablet right now but the one just hang out with us for a while and what is going to carry the best we can and then just from not giving medical advice to the general public, but just your notes or your experience terms what you seen if someone gets the symptoms of then the first thing to do. Aside from pray immediately is act on it right get a test and then introduce something immediately because the sooner it's addressed, the better.

Is that accurate. That is very accurate. You can get a home test from any drugstore right now and just keep them on hand and it looks like a lollipop with like a little card and you get a Q-tip don't swap it in like a queen to instruction Jewel put into closed it, wait like 1050 minute and you will have a pretty accurate result. If you have COBIT or God suggest having value.the standard for what I did this, what my tech through the show and let them direct you from God but yet we don't have to go in to a hospital or doctor.

The CBF code you can get covert testing keep on hand at all is a medication. As far as you know, those are fairly accurate yet after yesterday are gone even like it may like my workplace vaccinated or unvaccinated. We have to be tested per weekly because of the volume of covert patient right that you see today on teaching at that Terry made. May the Lord strengthen you there in the front lines, making use you to bring life and hope and again, let's not react to extremes.

The fact is, were dealing with a a deadly deadly virus question is, what's the best way to handle it was the best way to save lives and where is the government guilty of overreach and going too far. One is the government giving good recommendations with this act with wisdom as the people of God. Hey Terry, thanks for the call, it's the line of fire with your host activist, author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution get into the line of fire now by calling 6643 here again is Dr. Michael Brown thanks for joining us friends on the broadcast 866-34-TRUTH first half of the broadcast. I talked about the craziness of what's happening in 2021. The question of what is God doing in the midst of it that we've focused a bit more uncoated now and looking at a comment. Another comment posted on Facebook because the scroll of the tiny strut right there. From Deborah it's crazy to believe hospitals all across the country fabricating information's also insulting to hard-working healthcare workers there absolutely for those on the ground to say what he talking about this never happens is utterly outrageous to Micah slap in the face and in one of these conspiratorial myths and then I meet people say no one telling first and I know through my my sister because so you know were constantly faced with the stuff of where is the truth is reliable and who has an agenda and then again for the most part right. The people on the ground. They're the ones risking their lives. They're the ones working extra hours to try to save lives.

So is as one colleagues, and a medical colleague that the closer you get to touching people.

The closer you get to that caring for the patients.

The more the people involved in the medical profession or caring people.

I can't. I can imagine that that someone who has no sympathy for suffering people doesn't care at all about that still work at and it is a nurse changing bedpans for for some patient, caring for some 93-year-old person cleaning them in the eye.

I can imagine that they would just do that because it's a good living in no there there making sacrifices and so many remote when my mom was sick at the end of her life. I was blown away.

I was really blown away by the care the nurses in the hospital ready and just I can thank them enough. As my mom and in your do know this from apartment and and she was one of millions that cared for corporately speaking over the years. My colleague also is the higher up the food chain you get the more you at the executive level and big Pharma, the more there is greed, and other things driving stuff, and in Americans try to sort out what's what.

The miss this. But again, I urge you avoid extremes.

This is the mark of the beast or even be dead tomorrow.

Can unvaccinated or if your vaccinated don't come there are churches were faith people avoid the silliness of people's lives on the line here. Also mentioning the show a fascinating warning from Charles Finney going back to 1836 of the thinking to save that for tomorrow.

I mentioned Harvard and a study out of Harvard to say now that that or a Harvard professor now saying that natural immunity after getting covert is far far far more effective than then vaccines his foot.

This was from the Delta. Which reminded me of an article that I wrote over the week and got posted of this morning, when Harvard hired an atheist to be the chief University chaplain yeah Harvard University hired an atheist or rabbi, a humanist rabbi, Rabbi Epstein to be the chief University chaplain. I'm not making this up, this is not a poor joke. This really happened as a posted this article someone message me on Facebook saying you know I was earning my THM at Harvard there was one of the famous leaders their professors. Christian leaders there. Rev. Peter golems were the most influential black Christians in America was in out and proud gay man teach morality and ethics yet so this is no surprise, but it's it's not a bad joke with me reads different from from the article so Harvard when it's founded in 1636 and the different models one very test Christo at the ecclesia truth for Christ and church or and Kristin, Gloria, to the glory of Christ. This was Harvard and it's at its founding. It existed to train a literate clergy, but here in your post reports. Harvard University's organization of chaplains is getting a new president to coordinate the campuses Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist, and sort of the religious communities. The new president, 44-year-old Greg Epstein does not identify with any of those traditional religions himself. He's an atheist, so this is work.

What Rabbi Epstein said to New York Times quote there's a rising group of people who no longer identify with any religious tradition, but still experience a real need for conversation and support around what it means to be a good human live in ethical life will look to God for answers. We are each other's answers. Okay, that that that's your philosophy of life to look to God.

We look to each other, that's your business.

Between you and God. Even if you don't believe he exists. If you say we can lead a good ethical life without God you will seek to demonstrate that and live that out. That's that your business to still be chaplain text notes if someone decides to meet it to eat meat and they want to advocate the importance of eating meat.

How wonderful it is to eat meat even advocate a Carver diet fine, just don't want to be the president of the local pizza branch and in college campus or if you're a Muslim and you believe that all laws the way in that your belief in the Koran is God's word and that's between you and God. Just don't run to be the president of the hello club, the Jewish club on your campus here chaplain by definition is religious leader that legally couple of quotes here. Mary Merriam-Webster website offers these four definitions for chaplain, clergyman, church or chapel clergyman officially attached to branch the military to institution for family record, a person chosen to conduct religious exercises as an immediate recover Society encouragement appointed to assist a bishop is a liturgical function according to dictionary.com, a chaplain is one of the ecclesiastics are clergyman attached to the chapel of the royal court, college, etc. to remove her unit a person uses the purification, etc. for an organization or an assembly in the military website states that the chaplain's responsibilities include performing religious rights conducting worship services providing confidential counseling and advising commanders and with the spiritual, moral matters, chaplains are commissioned officers station River their military members, including comments on the skin. It's for military, but if you don't believe in God friends you can do any of this. Okay, let's chaplain, would you lead us in prayer.

What is atheist per sound like now I'm not saying so. He was an atheist cannot have for themselves a coherent worldview cannot have values. Cannot have things that they believe are important and ended we might agree with many of those things.

I'm not saying that that an atheist by being an atheist is therefore a mean person or nasty person or hateful person not saying that at all. I'm simply saying if you're an atheist, then you believe that what is material is the only thing that it exists. If you're consistent atheist, that there is no other world. There is no spiritual realm. So if we ask that an atheist chaplain to pray. You cannot pray to a God or to God's or to the spirit out there because in your view, there is no spirit out that there are no because there is no God sold its prayer sound like what what kind of religious exercise. Could you have communities orderly absolutely on the surface of things and in the depth of things utterly absurd is the world we live in today. Oh and by the way, you know how controversial this was a Harvard Greg Epstein was elected unanimously to the position they might see you understand my keys.

He's a good organizer you can bring different groups yet. Okay then appoint them as an administrator, not the chief University chaplain by the way, it's, it's even more absurd to be an atheist. Rabbi Nye. I debated the reform Rabbi many many years ago. Rabbi silver in Florida and and he was he was borderline atheist is not atheist.

He told me that even for reform.

He was way to the left and after we finished opening presentations.

I got up and said the biggest difference between Rabbi silver and me is that I believe he prescriptions are the word of God. He doesn't people asked like how dare I say that in any yelled out that's right, he did not believe the Bible is the word of God, and he was a rabbi so there is there is no Judaism in this God rescues the Jewish people out of Egypt, the Israelites, unless he appears to us unless he made promises to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and lessee appear to us about Sinai and gave us a straw and lessee called us and gave us the prophets so that there is no Julius, no I know people have argued for atheist Judaism or radical Reconstructionist Reconstructionist Judaism, based on other ethics doesn't buy a lot. Bottom line, the social things Judaism without a God who called the people of Israel but the good news is this is the environment there and it's become more clear. In other words, the something hidden.

The Harvard of old that existed to train a literate clergy and here we just read this to you. One of the one of the goals for four in order to graduate with a basic degree in arts not theology the student had to be able quote to logically explain the holy Scriptures, both of the old and New Testament, and be blameless in life and character. The great goal to know God and Jesus Christ which is eternal life.

May God spark a revival at Harvard in the midst of the witness. In the midst of the deception with the Holy Spirit of truth arrives at heart. Another program powered by the Truth Network
