So what is God doing in the midst of all the political chaos of America will talk about that today and take your calls stage for the line of fire with your host activist and author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution Michael Brown is the director of the coalition of conscience and president of fire school of ministry get into the line of fire valves like always 866-34-TRUTH that's 866-34-TRUTH. Jim is Dr. Michael Brown yelled week.

We are alive and we are back in our home studio and I intended to be live from Pittsburgh yesterday. As I announced would be the case. Monday, but there is a scheduling error. I failed to see when my flights were scheduling error. So, in any case, sorry we couldn't be live with you yesterday, but we are certainly alive right now and shout out to Riley case, you have me listening. We don't have any more grandkids that are not teens. Our youngest Riley turns 13 years old today.

Have an amazing happy birthday Glenn. At least my wife Nancy is with her in the family and Marilyn Archer's number to call 866-34-TRUTH 866-34-TRUTH 7884 anything under the sun that's relevant to the line of fire broadcast. We can help you with, by all means give us a call with its political theological biblical spiritual wrist is really Jewish people give us a call, but only tonight. I'm scheduled to be on the YouTube show of as it is really news live with Steve and John have been noon to have some very candid discussion about some of our areas of agreement and disagreement when it comes to the Jewish people and the no hide laws etc. so that's going to be tonight. Looking forward to that and I'm sure the be candid. I'll be candid, but with mutual respect as brothers and sisters in the Lord and if there's something worth talking about tomorrow that I feel is relevant that I want to continue the discussion will do that on silly Jewish Thursday broadcast tomorrow, but again four months are open 866-34-TRUTH us rationally, especially if you differ with me on things. Please call and tell me what I respect that. I do all right you you have to call the differ, that's fine. But if you do, I want you to know that the phone lines are open all right little later in the broadcast I want to reference Scripture.

One of the most unusual of the New Testament were Jesus is don't think I came to bring peace, but a cantering sort none sort of violence sort of division within families as Kim and Kanye are experiencing right now but that's what the gospel doesn't want to talk about that. I have a new article on that Jesus divides and unites families and prayers for their ego.

Prayers for Kanye and Kim so we get into that, but I have not talked a lot as I said I would not be talking a lot have not talked a lot about the whole impeachment hearings and everything swirling. If you miss the broadcast were I wrote about that talked about it and wrote about this while you miss the broadcast. I explained that things are gonna be swirling day and night, and it's almost going to be like the latest gossip, who said this, what, and in the political intrigue and who's doing this is behind was this is right and the strong should be happy and this should be happening in any be so easy to get caught up in this world. But now I don't mean that some people shouldn't be talking about it everyday or writing about it every day and that may be there calling her their job, their profession, and that may be the role with a plan that's their function as a newscaster or conservative broadcaster, journalist, or something that I'm not saying that it's wrong to be doing that nor my saying you're wrong. If you're following it in detail. These are major issues. From my perspective the we get caught up in this fever and and it's very easy to lose sight of the larger spiritual goals and even to break our fellowship with God because which is also considered as a lobotomy is on this not right.

What is behind. How can you get away and it becomes partisan politics and and and it divides and stirs things up and it just gets us in the flesh, so I felt because this is going to be such an ongoing intense situation and it's not going to resolve itself with any clarity for many many weeks from its inception, that I would step back and only weigh-in when I felt there was something so newsworthy that I had to weigh in or that that it was it was something right II had something worth contributing in saying at that moment. So where we are today is just one way and with some perspectives to help us keep our bearings in the midst of this here is my big question what is God doing in the midst impeachment hearings what what is God's plan. People are doing this people are doing that what is God doing what is God's plan and and here's the big picture. We don't know what God's and goal is in the short term we know his and goal in the long-term right having a people that love him and enjoyment glorify him forever and ever.

We understand that we understand the vision of the new Jerusalem no death and suffering and God glorify the perfect blessing on his people forever and ever and we understand that but what's his angle in the short time Turner's work in this world in this generation. Where is he going. We tend to sinking in the immediate, the next elections, Supreme Court justices, political decisions, the economy, national security, immigration, abortion all issues that are relevant that are important. There's something bigger speak with my dear friend James Robison a couple times in last week. One thing he's been emphasizing since God's only building his kingdom and in other words it's it's it's never partisan politics it's never just up about Republicans or Democrats or just about America or just about the nations.

It's about the plan of God. The purpose of God in the midst of the world because bigger than American guns bigger than the nation scouts bigger than the world gets bigger than the universe because bigger than everything he created.

He has an agenda and he is a plan. So first thing I just want to remind us of that to step back and to worship the God who rules and reigns to worship the God who is King and to say, God, your will be done in heaven as it is in earth just as your will is executed in heaven perfectly just a have a plan in heaven that is executed, may it be executed just the same on the earth may be perfectly executed, may it come to pass on the earth up part of. That's a long term prayer right for the final manifestation of the kingdom with the return of Jesus when he sets up his kingdom on the earth and destroys wickedness and and whether you believe in a literal thousand year millennium as I do and then eternity work from here into eternity. Either way, we are ultimately praying for his return for the destruction of all evil for the manifestation the full manifestation of the kingdom of God without any resistance, forever and ever and ever. That's the long term of your will be your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven, but wasn't me the short term was of interest. Pres. Trump wasn't me in terms of of of Congress was at me in terms of Supreme Court. What is God's plan in all this. I remember talking to a colleague of mine evangelical colleague who these these were the days when I was very strongly pro-Ted Cruz and very much against Donald Trump during the primaries and I really one of the secret crews become president thought he be the right man and my friend said what if God wants you strong freight years to clean house and shake things up and then bring crews into to rebuild and mixing strong in 08 years of company your screws us could be. I don't see it know the whole wrecking ball, saying in the and you know the draining the swamp, but that a whole lot of collateral damage in the process and so all that to say God is a plan bigger than even if that was his plan which is larger plan for American was what why, for what purpose such as for political recruitments is not just for temporary earthly victory in righteousness issue, things like that.

Plus we know in this world will never see perfect victory of anything in terms of society, noticing you never can have a perfectly right perfectly just a side even even if was turned regarding abortion, you have people having illegal abortions that you are just like people are doing drugs illegally and selling people and human trafficking use, and you have things happen even if you had revival sweeps a region still have people who don't believe in in your still going to have crime, you still can have injustice of you stand for justice to speak out against evil understanding in this world you live heaven perfectly. So what is God doing in all of this, certainly, certainly he is revealing a lot about who we are as a nation as a church as political parties. He is revealing the depth of the divisions that exist and remember a truism from the words of Jesus and repeated by Abraham Lincoln that that a house divided will not stand. So the depth of America's divisions are cute. When I met with some believers from Europe and America a few weeks ago a couple months ago now in Texas.

One of them from Germany was saying that we have different political parties will just have to we have these different political parties and you can sit down and have differences you your Christians. I will for this when I was for that one and it's it's not the same as heroes. It's not as volatile is not as divisive and it is not as big of an issue so that through everything that's happening. We are seeing the depth of division within us.

I also believe were seeing how many Christians look to the political system for change more than the kingdom of God.

How many Christians look to a political leader or party to bring about social change or to bring about what they believe are the important agendas for society that that they are looking to the political system in the world much more than you are to God in the church said it many a time, but if I draw up a list of the 10 most important things that I could do to to bring lasting change to America voting would be on a number eight or nine or 10. I was way down the list of course would start with prayer it would start with repentance. It would start with evangelism and it discipling and standing up for what's right and so many things and and and being cold is God's spirit, etc. but what's happening now through this whole system.

This whole process. It's revealed how earthly and fleshly we can be right and in the here's a big thing. We need to be praying at all this nonpartisan prayers, not not pressed her back to the Republicans or Democrats repressed back the presidential press tobacco Democrat candidate, etc. rather, we need to be praying father. You bring your will to pass.

What if what if what does God's will that Donald Trump was removed and Mike pence was was raised said now don't say those words when your spirit, I'm just asking a question or that Donald Trump said right now this is to divisive for the nation. I'm stepping out of the what and then you had primaries and then another candidate came forth and replace or what if this is a demonic attack to try to take out the president, who despite all of his flaws and blemishes is doing a lot that's important good and anyone weaker than him. Anyone who was in his toughened and headstrong as him would cave in and he needed or is revealing something about the church of America so that is wheeling too much in the political system and put all our eggs in that basket that it ends up pushing back against us and everything swings with the Democrat landslide in 2020, and next thing we realize what we look at it. In other words, we don't necessarily know if the outcome is supposed to be there for quite some believe they have inside the spoke of it even written on why this one should be electrolytes critical to Trump reelected and they may well have inside from the Lord.

But aside from that first Lord you have a purpose. Bring to pass the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown in the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH paradigm is Dr. Michael Brown is the recall of the phones shortly, but you might silk it was what you actually saying about what's happening in America what what what what your point. My point is that God has purpose is bigger than just what we are looking for example, it could be that the importance of the Trump presidency is such that all hell is breaking loose against them to take him out before he finishes his mission.

His mission has to do with the dismantling of some massive strongholds in DC and the world, and it takes someone is like a human bulldozer with the four head of steel to take these things on about how strong someone else is there not Trump and therefore this is a satanic effort to take him out or could well be that there's something very different going on and and that in the midst of everything in the impeachment hearings and so on and by the way, I my prayers bring everything to light your will be done.

Remembering that the Democrats were trying to impeach printed Trump to talk about it for many many months before the whole Ukraine phone call thing blew up but I don't know what God's immediate endgame is and I do know that it's important that I don't get sucked into the vortex of the data back and forth back and forth and and and and you can emotional riches.

The agitated whichever side you're on your agitated. It's frustrating and it will what is happening and why we know the name of this whistleblowing. What happened with this and why is this a secret and think of this that when the president conducts this raid to toot to take out of the bunker of about God. He ordered captured alive and those himself off of the plan was.

He doesn't tell Congress. He doesn't tell certain key people.

He's afraid that the leak the information at nights.

I think he had good reason to be afraid. I think that's a shameful indictment of the state of things and I don't care what's going on with the president Obama was an officer present Trump's office that the idea of the secret leaks in the whistleblowers. I think that's despicable. Somebody writes a whole book of dominance are unintelligible and say who you are, man or woman say who you are a funds hold secret thing despicable. It's one thing when you omit, you may be a victim of a sex crime against you and you know what your name paraded around for the whole. You will have to revisit something by sitting with the person that abused understand that right or you might be is a secret missionary working in North Korea and and if your identity was known for one second, you'd be dead or worse still in life long torturous imprisonment in North Korea right. I understand that this for the most part, this is very very different.

So, may the truth come to life years will come together right as God's people from all backgrounds, regardless of who you voted for what you voted at all here so we all come together we get on our knees before God with love one for another.

We refuse to allow partisan politics to divide us right refuse to allow that to happen, and instead, we see God bring the truth to life. Got your will be done. Your plan for right now. Your plan for the 2020 elections and your plan for Donald Trump because there was one prophetic word particular smoking years earlier, Trump would be the president, but that he would enter the White House, not as a praying man, not as a man on his knees but when he was done he would be a praying man, he would be a man on his knees. I don't see that happening yet. At least if it's happening privates is the reflection of it in public. Okay, so what's God's purpose for Donald Trump in office. How shall we praying kingdom prayers, or we praying praises Klonopin and news cycles in the madness of it all. So I'm saying God is doing something bigger and and God in the Mstislav. How are you building your church in the midst of that's the bigger thing. How is God advancing his kingdom in the midst of this mess. That's the bigger picture. How is that playing out what does that look like what does that mean that's what I want to know that's what I want understand so I can be in sync with God. I can be in sync with his knowledge of how can the gospel go forth more clearly through this right now. Evangelicals are so largely associated with Pres. Trump that if he does something wrong that we get blamed as if were guilty of the same actions in or how you build a new church in the midst of this, what were you saying what's happening don't lose sight of those bigger issues friends and NSA this last thing that will go to the phones, 866-34-TRUTH comments response to what I'm saying or questions of all kinds for the phones this last point, we have a role. We have a mission which is 24 seven and and wherever you live anywhere in the world. We have a role. We have a mission okay and you may live in a close depressed country.

You may live in a very open country like America which are mission in the midst of this, what's my mission in the midst of this, I'm hearing reports in different places of God, pouring on the spirit of God moving powerfully in different churches, places, when it be amazing if if God spirit is poured out extraordinary measure. None in one place so we talk about the revival here than 100 places.

Once we talk about the revival of 2019 2020. Rather, the great outpouring in America, there is near the that the third grade away in whatever number we put out your national wake you with that PMA's the Lord. Praying not to pass in the midst of this make the people wake up and recognize the bankruptcy of so much of our system at an end to the degree of flesh in the midst of our system. Don't tell me that that a whole lot of people in in politics or think about what's best for America. Right now there is something that's driven by an agenda and all different sides so this be in prayer. Hope that helps. I hope these thoughts are useful and it's part of my role as your voice, moral, cultural, spiritual revolution, not just be reporting on the news, but bring kingdom perspective right with that we go to the phones starting in California. Francisco, welcome to the line of fire or talk about hello Eric, yes I R Eric Gordon figure it off my collar and I rank your audio answered in a blessing for my life to treat my questionnaires three months ago, the Lord has been fine with my life and through prayer and just. There was word and I ran just today I ran to a question that not bother me, but I did have a question, I thought I'd call you brother Derek. I'm a preacher.

She mentioned that believers can be taken have the Holy Spirit and they can be given oppressed and you give an example of the one of the synagogue and Jesus casted the demon out of him out, for example. But I believe what I believe is a true believer born-again believer cannot be demon oppressed, but maybe like Job that he touched his body and he was filled with old thick and and maybe touched by the Dublin neck is loud enough you can set them I will not yeah closest Derek Prince was assigned Bible teacher with the Lord now and there is been debate know for many years is the difference between being demon possessed demon old press so that a Christian cannot be demon possessed.

But to be old press, because once the inside. Once the outside of his would say those are wrong concepts because the Greek word really means demonized so it's being under some type of demonic influence others would say no, no, it speaks of someone having a demon in the demon being cast out so rather than get into theoretical discussion to me.

What's clear is that everyone potentially can be under some degree of demonic influence just her duck project you're talking about this a few weeks ago and was making a similar point that every human being can be under some degree of demonic influence was not saved can be completely taken over by the enemy so that they become a complete slave to the enemy's will and they need to be supernaturally deliver this they open the door to become enslaved and the only they can get set free is with God's supernatural help, you might be a believer and you open the door to darkness.

Maybe interfere or maybe some sexual lost or some areas of disobedience, and lying. And next thing this thing is is is battering you and in you feel this torment in this attack and it's hard to get free.

That one way or another we can open ourselves up to demonic power. I do not believe it's the extent we think of the Holy Spirit dwelling inside of us and us being temples of the Holy Spirit. I do not believe that Satan can dwell along with the Holy Spirit inside of us in that regard so that would be which are sent, but I do believe that because recognize that when dealing with physical beings but spiritual beings there can be a lot of intersection. You don't say there can be torment this, it feels like it's an excuse in our mind and its insist battering thing we need to understand is that Satan has no right to a square inch of us in Jesus. He has no right to a spirit soul and body in Jesus and if we will renew ourselves with God's truth renew our mind to a God's word says about who we are as sons and daughters of God and people indwelt by the Holy Spirit and people full of the word of God as we get the word in our hearts and our minds than in fellowship with God. We can see Satan get out bye get out.

Maybe it's attacking our family. Maybe attack your thought life may be attacking her health to be attacking her finances but to whatever extent we see demonic activity that doesn't belong slick no-no, owned by God, I belong to God I'm indwelt by God. Jesus is my Lord, there's no room for darkness so in Jesus name I submit myself to God. James, Jacob, Jeff, before I submit myself to God and I resist the devil and hopefully through theories on you in you around you to me is that the bigger issues you can't stay here. Get out and go in Jesus day hey, hope that is helpful and useful key starts with submission to God, and out of that Satan is pleased… God bless you man strong in the Lord. The line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown welcome welcome to the broadcast. Just a reminder to those of us watching on Facebook we will not be on YouTube again for another couple of days. We immediately appealed the ridiculous strike that was given to us for posting a video interview I did on another show shows on line YouTube. No penalty, no problem. Glad it is posted the identical one we got a penalty for inappropriate content is completely utterly ridiculous. The appeal immediately denied it instantly that I reposted one day later, less it was denied.

So I'm studying properly processed, let alone write rightly deny any case, in case we continue to reach as many as we can on YouTube, but we cannot live stream for another couple of days. However, the show is being lasting on Facebook for those who want to watch everyone listening all the radio stations welcome to the broadcast 86634 to right wing, watch a project of people for the American way.

In other words why he left, and attacking people like you and me on a daily basis. Anti-LGBT Q activist Michael Brown is using Hollywood to promote his recent book Jezebels war with America Holly wing Holly wing Halloween Halloween not Hollywood but sometimes closely related using Halloween to promote his recent book Jezebels war with America, which was about the demonic spirit of Jezebel, which he associates with radical feminism, abortion, sexual morality, as well as the rise of witchcraft and sorcery in America. This sounds right to me sounds pretty self-evident to me sounds like what's happening in the world around us today. Connect the dots yet. Here's a quote this week.

Many little girls run the country may dress up as witches for hollowing some perhaps cute and was little scary as a press release promoting Brown's book. There is nothing pretend about the very real and very frightening presence of witchcraft. America is authoring national radio host Dr. Michael Brown. Brown's book asserts that the demonic Jezebel spirit is enraged by Trump because he is fighting abortion opposing LGBT extremism and supporting the profits of God. Anyway right wing watch when they attack you means you're doing something that others learn as they attack but glad to be attacked. What's the general headline of the article by Peter Montgomery thanks Peter for your quotes. October 29 so yesterday witchcraft panic fuels Trump allies war on hollowing a search we should really be celebrating Halloween celebrating the skeleton of the walking skeleton outfits in the Halloween movies with everybody in slightly misty question what movies, what kind of movies are played on hollowing what what movies named hollowing coach of the horror fest now with Halloween. What one Holly was putting out movies that are Halloween seemed or where the networks are running as specials during Halloween season.

What are they is a wonderful family member family movie and it's very warm and moving noalien butchered or some satanic activity taking place all is the reason for that. But you don't know the origins of that will waive the origins of then. I know the way it is celebrated today and it's dark and Lotta Satanist make a major focus. People are asked Satan. This makes witches of Toles and his is a time of major spiritual focus for them. My freight now and afraid of the devil, just where the same wake up to these realities in the GK Chesterton observed that when people no longer believe in God. It's not that they believe in nothing but that we believe in everything and sociologist anthropologist Prof. Rodney Stark is written about this sent and I quoted in saving a sick American alluded to it in Jezebels North America that when you have nations like Iceland with a very very very low percentage of people believing God and and of active Christians in a very low percentage and in almost nobody among young people and statistically believing in and God the creator of the universe, Sammy, just a very God less nation in terms of religious and spiritual beliefs relating to the Bible, then we will because bizarre superstitions and and and they believe in a certain type of people that that these we will call out like fairies, gremlins, but they live underground and and yeah research eminent red.

It's like what that I researched it more severe if you build the new road here. You gotta consult with the spiritual experts to know what you can be disrupting them.

If you build there and a lot of the population believes it so you cast off believe in God you believe all kinds of other stuff beings deception anyway just wanted to say that since tomorrow is Halloween, 866-34-TRUTH. Let us go to the phones in Iowa. Dave welcome to modifier low Dr. Brown I greatly respect you your opinion and I am a pastor and a denominational leader. I will leave the denomination nameless now, but I have a situation I like to know your thoughts on pleased.

I'm a member of a committee. It's a committee that approves of ministerial licenses, ordination, and that one of our last meeting I asked one of the candidates for ordination. My question was is there ever a time that God would approve of a homosexual relationship and the answer of the candidate was follows said if two people of the same sex love each other. That's just fine as long the relationship is not physical and so I I had a problem with that answer, and I'm getting some collectors may be one of the only ones on the committee that did have a problem with that answer and I would like to know your thoughts on the matter. Certainly if people are friends just like you and you your best buddy Geyer friends and there's nothing romantic about her RMC sexual about it, that's one thing but that's always being spoken of as being spoken of is a homosexual relationship where two men fall in love each other two women fall in love with each other, just not actively having sex. Of course that's wrong in the sight of God, because it's the type of affection and love that they're feeling is not the effects of the love that say a father has for a son or two guys that play on the same baseball team together.

Have you been buddies for years know this is the love that supposed to be the love between a man and a woman. This is the love where you want to spend the rest your life committed to that person and make lifelong valves that you know to death do us part kind of thing but there same will because God doesn't approve of homosexual practice. Therefore, we won't have sex.

Of course, all things will hear it's it's no different ultimately than if you are married man and you fall in love with the woman you're not married to, and the woman falls in love with you so you have this deep love for each other you wish that you could be together physically and have sex but you can't because you're not married but you're going to maintain that release of course it's sinful.

Obviously, such as the physical act.

So, while I appreciate there may be a gay couple and two ladies love each other but this it will because were Christians, we can't touch each other can't be together physically, I appreciate that step that they've taken, but the whole relationship is wrong and God said, is contrary to his order and his design is a love between a husband and a wife between a man and woman that is unique as established by God for eternal purposes here, look, I have a relationship with my wife Nancy that I cannot have with any other woman on the planet. There's a love I have, even if were separated by 5000 miles on another part of the world. EP even if you were were physically separated for four months because I'm in one part of the world sees no for the world the relationship I have with her emotionally in my heart.

My desire connection, I can only have with her. If I had it with any other woman on the planet. It would be sinful would be wrong.

So absolutely, categorically no debate about it. My concern is also if this is approved of it, just one step away the absolute affirmation of course in our our denomination right now.

Vicki met with a statement saying that marriage is only between a man and a woman that homosexual acts are simple but their studying into orientation and otherworldly orientation, and it fell may not be simple and so it's a slippery slope and so what were getting now is these kind of answers that okay it's okay to be true to people that you have a relationship and beloved long as they don't do anything physical and II just I have a problem with that because number one, we see what the next step will be number two. It's the actual relationship in itself that I believe is condemned in Scripture, not just the physical acts and so I'm getting Acquired and collected Lucinda so I just want to know your thoughts.

I think that that's it. It is again a non-debatable black and white and for anyone that's even struggling just asking the question, why is this any different if if the physical relationship is sinful in God's sight and clearly forbidden. We know the physical act is clearly forbidden, then why would the emotional life to be.

Except why is that any different than I'm a married man having thoughts about a woman he's not marriage white. Was it any different was not hurting. Don't forget, hurting richest, the thoughts you were just talk about those cassettes elicit is elite. It is illegal is contrary to God's order.

Contrary to God's plan and then again you asked the question, as you rightly said, where does this leave always a simple thing to ask if I allow this to go to its normal land were legal.

So for example take truth multiply truth endlessly what you get. Truth take love, multiply, love endlessly what you get. Love take anger and bitterness, multiply the men the Simon you end up with every type of violent acting and hateful actor take sexual morality.

Multiply that you end up with unimaginable perversions so you have the commitment of a husband and wife you love each other and okay let's multiply that right you commit to each other physically. It's multiply that you care for each of the live the rest relies to get the children out you wonderful letter keep multiply.

You take two men or two women that love each other and spend the rest of their lives together, but feel the physical act is probably most, where is that going to go can only go in one direction and the other thing is, would God put the desire in the person's heart break is these religious Christians and want to serve the Lord, which he put the desire in their heart to do something which the doing of it would be a sin in his sight were the following through on that would be a sin in his sight so when comes to the question could orientation the best thing to look at is God created human beings in his image and were fallen race in the fall and this is manifested in many different ways women think in terms of sexual orientation thing in terms of God's order God's plan to someone that same-sex attracted however deeply seated. Then they realize this is wrong.

This is contrary to God's desire and tend to act on it and you can act unemotionally. That is certainly sent May God give you wisdom. My brother and strength. If the line of fire with your host activist, author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown and voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution get into the line of fire now by calling 6643. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown to call from this pastor Dave reminds me of something that reminded of every single day. We didn't ask for this battle.

We didn't start this we go around longer to get mad at homosexuals and the hate on them that we understood. The Bible said would say following this pattern.

Marriage is the union of a man and woman is God intended understand God's order. There's never been a major question basically in 2000 years of church history among Bible believing people with those who actually believe the Bible is God's word about homosexual practice is part of the rise of the sexual revolution part of the larger attack on the meaning of family and gender distinctions and on and on it goes.

So we are simply responding, but seeking to respond with truth and with love.

As we said many times we need hearts of compassion and backbones of steel.

We need to reach out and resist. We reach out with compassion to people we resist the agenda with courage.

Just looking at it staff meeting to meeting, right before radio and looking at some of the prayer requests of coming in recent weeks and one woman. Please pray my husband was an elder in our church, active churchgoer is now left me married many years from Pocatello is now left me and his embrace gay theology all you know what again love the culture wars brother just preach Jesus. Also, Jesus is not concerned about the breakup of her marriage and Jesus is not concerned about an elder who now embraces false and deceptive theology which appears repetitive will destroy his soul.

Jesus doesn't care about that and then another request. My son is now come out as gay any city ask God to help them change and he didn't change which about people, individuals were talking about people loved by God created in the image of God and yet fallen. I didn't ask for this. I did this for the assignment to be on the front lines of the culture wars is a follower of Jesus and the Christian leader. I didn't ask for that something he gave me out of his purposes and knowing what he made me forbid not just me.

None of us can sit this out in case you missed when I share this III was speaking on Long Island.

Few weeks ago. Fine church dear friend there many years speaking in his church and to the Friday night meeting mainly young people, but there are others there as well and then afterwards time for Q&A. Select cultural questions came up almost know what do I do. I'm an elementary school teacher and I've been told if if a boy identifies his go after for him as a girl and have a problem that was why do another woman. I'm a doctor and I have an issue with with the transgender guidelines was of a biological male comes in and identifies as a fume I have to treat that person is a female touch that person is. If you have a problem with that and she said to me afterwards unless we all say on the same day basically were just not going along with this then did this one can be filed and that one could be fun if we all stand together so I can happen. No one comes up to me what'll I do my might might son a recently came out as as though my daughter recently came out, these grown children and told me she's a lesbian and I guess that emboldened my son and now he says he actually believes woman what want to get on the coach was talk about people, people are right. So what if it's you know you your toddler this at the next drag queen reading. So of course we get involved. But we get involved with a larger gospel view we get involved with larger kingdom view. We don't just get involved in a political or social level we get involved in a gospel of doubt we do get involved politically were appropriate. We do vote with them and we do right candidates would you stand for certain causes certain times like I can't give you my business and good conscience I can't give you my business because you make such a big stink about standing with these groups and giving money to these groups have a problem with that. For example, if there was a company I did regular business with with a favorite store in my neighborhood and they just begin to proclaim we want you to know that were standing with Planned Parenthood giving a percentage of every single purchase to Planned Parenthood that I would contact them I would be with local store managers. I would, I would.

I would contact national headquarters and if they said this is what were doing that night so I can't give my business and I announce it loudly and clearly and Telus admit we can send a message and of their employees there and people that work hard and you don't want to hurt like I can't do that in good conscience, so there things like that we do, but ultimately we pray and we share the gospel. We love people and we speak the truth, and we don't move from the truth regardless of cost or consequence.

Just looking during the break it up story on on Fox News and it's it's it's quite an intense story trump judicial pick breaks down in tears and hearing over legal groups attack so he is when the president comes nominees for the ninth circuit Court of Appeals, and only trumps appointees have begun to transform the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, which is infamously liberal crazily liberal in terms of some of the decisions that it's rendered in an it's really big city of different panels that can be chosen outcome at random from different ones to make decisions and recently was pretty strong.

Decision rights as a righteous decision made by budget majority trump appointees and just happened to be in in the right committees the right time. You could say so.

Look at this story. One of president comes nominees for the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals broke down in tears during a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing Wednesday as he disputed suggestions that he would not be fair to members of the LGBT Q community Lawrence VanDyke was the subject of a scathing letter from the American Bar Association, which is infamously liberal as well. Infamously, pro-abortion and pro-LGBT activism, etc. it was since committee leadership Tuesday night which alleged that people they interviewed expresses concern that VanDyke himself quote would not say affirmatively that he would be fair to any litigant before him.

Notably, members of the LGBT community, so they write the scathing letter and he would not even say that he would treat everyone fairly. Are the conservatives of adamantly defendant the nominee and when asked about this Wednesday's hearing. VanDyke strongly disputed the ABA's account. I did not say that VanDyke told Sen. Josh Hawley Republican for Missouri tears welling up in his eyes.

No I did not say that I do not believe that it is a fundamental belief of mine that all people create an image of God.

They should all be treated with dignity and respect, Sen., he added, sobbing.

VanDyke also said that he was not given a fair opportunity to respond to the allegations during his ABA interview. He simply was confronted with concerns about his views.

He began to answer but was told they were running out of time.

That interview was conducted by Marcia Davenport, the lead evaluator. Hawley noted that Davenport once contributed to the campaign of a judicial candidate who is running against VanDyke.

I find that absolutely unbelievable.

Hawley said sitting. It probably explains the total ad hominem nature of this disgraceful letter. In any case, the will of God be done with this political appointee. This court appointed bottom-line bottom-line. We cannot avoid these pressing issues I'm reading about him.

A repeat he could he could be the Democratic candidate is a path for him.

So you have an openly homosexual men" married to his partner quoting the Bible and going to be a Christian calling Mike pence hypocritical yeah whole lot to say on that.

All right, back to this article that I wrote. I referenced earlier how Jesus divides and unites families and prayers for Kim and Kanye so Jesus said in Matthew 10 don't think I came to bring peace of encountering peace looking to bring a sword right cantering sort. What kind of sort violence, put down the cross, take up the sword calculations. No no no not conquering by this worked out for bid. Jesus lays down his life resin takes the lives of others to advance his cause rather sort of division. Any any quotes from Micah 7 that that I've come to divide one from another of come to turn a man against his father daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother laments enemies will be the members of his own household right and is quoting therefrom for more from Micah 7. Interestingly, in the Mishnah which is compiled about two centuries after the time of Jesus. Listen to this. Listen to this. It's it says that in in the mission of the end of tractate Sosa in the footsteps of the Maasai meeting in the days immediately before his revealed insolence will increase in the cost of living will go up greatly. The vinyl yields its fruit but one will be expensive the government will turn to heresy and will be no one to rebuke the meeting place of scholars will be used for licentiousness, the wisdom of the learned will rot prayers of sin will be despised and the truth will be lacking. Use will be put up will put all men to shame. The old will stand up in the presence of the young and then he quotes Micah 5 for sons friends father daughter us up against mother daughter against mother laments own enemies demands on how solar is enemies. In other words, Jewish tradition at that time was saying. With the coming of the Messiah.

There will be great social conflict in darkness. Jesus quotes that very same passage we know is when God starts working in a household, there may be used to get drunk together as a couple. Now the oneness want to drink anymore or you're not married and you know you're having sex and I when he gets a site we can do this we need to get married if we are to continue this relationship, or you bought certain moves.

It's like I can't watch that and it's like ill in just running people down and slandering a Maasai Connie that I feel right… One who are you what happened to having those conflicts down the whole home of Kanye West cavity is like some of her sexy dresses and she's like you want me to be the sexy person so that subdivision comes but Jesus unites families how many of you were shaking her head like yes yes exactly our families only together because of the Lord. Let's pray that that that there will be such radical conversions. Kim Kardashian's heart and and and other tray right up to Bruce Jenner's effort this pray for such radical conversions that this family will supernaturally united Jesus Christ's early Jewish Thursday Barnabas
