How about some biblically-based thinking as we come to the midterm elections stage for the line of fire with your host activist all the international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution Michael Brown was 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 your Jim is Dr. Michael Brown but yet there is quite a stir in the air these days with the midterm elections upon us voting tomorrow. Many millions have cast their votes and advance voter turnout seems to be exceptionally high, which way will the elections go, what will the elections mean for the future of America for the immediate future of America but will they say in terms of the trump agenda questions questions everywhere. We want to do our best to give you some biblically-based thinking some thoughts that can help push through the political morass in the political frenzy and get us with a balanced approach.

This is Michael Brown and you have tuned into the line of fire. Yes you never listen to us to watch just before will take the next few minutes and join us. In fact you can even call in the numbers 866-34-TRUTH 866-348-7884 had a delightful time ministering in Canada Friday and Saturday and messianic Jewish conferences. We focused on the land of Israel and the issue surrounding that then flew Sunday into Baltimore then spoke last night at a conference. 35th anniversary conference for respected Baltimore leader and that was a multiethnic, multiracial, setting people from other nations as well. And yet in the midst of my message about America and about the church. I touched on some politically related issues, but in a way that hopefully everyone could agree on so my hope, my desire is that as followers of Jesus, we can find common ground, we can agree on certain points of emphasis we can perhaps try to influence each other when we think the other is missing something, and then from there we can have our differences, I look politics is important, but politics is not the gospel. Politics is important, but politics is not the great commission is of said many times Donald Trump is my president, my Savior, my Savior gets my vote. Excuse me, my Savior gets my life. I said in the opposite order there, my Savior gets my life. President gets my vote.

There's a massive distinction one shed his blood for me.

I would shed his blood for him, one is perfect and demands my worship and absolute loyalty.

There is a man could be a woman but which I'm a human being a flawed human being and flawed system so no matter how much I may prefer the policies of one party over another thereunder how passionate I may be about some of the social issues that intersect with the party platforms as important as I feel the elections are still II don't elevate them beyond where they should be elevated if if you are an absolute pro Trump person and we have a massive blue wave and the Democrats take over Congress right and intake over governorships across America.

You still get up the next morning and have to live for Jesus, you have to get up the next morning and still be in one of the freest countries in the world you still get up the next morning and you need to pray need to love your neighbor and you need to be a disciple and make disciples. And conversely, if you are rabid never trump, or if you believe is the worst thing that ever happened to America and there's a massive red wave and the Republicans increase their dominance across America.

Same thing applies you get up the next morning you still with one of the freest countries in the world and you still have to be a disciple and make disciples. And you still praying, still try to love your neighbor so the main things were called to do. We still do. Either way the main commission God's given us. We still do either way that makes sense. Let me read something inflammatory to you. Here it is from the rising Democrat Socialist store Alexandria Conseil Cortez. This is a fund raising email she sent out the immediate aftermath of the tragic Pittsburgh synagogue massacre and she was explain why it's imperative to vote for Democrats on the sixth so tomorrow in order to quote defeat the brutal white supremacist forces of anti-Semitism, anti-immigrant nativism and racism we can send the message he said to the bigots and billionaires that this country belongs to all of us report referred to Republicans as coldhearted monsters by, rhetoric not only is irresponsible over the top. It's it's a false it's ugly it's obscene in what he tries to say and what it implies. Are there anti-Semites who are Republicans yes and their anti-Semites who are Democrats or their white supremacist Republicans yes and their black supremacist who are Democrats.

That doesn't mean that thought the whole party can be characterized as such, is that the leaders can be characterized as such. That being said president trump is also used fear-based rhetoric. I don't believe it's been that extreme or that exaggerated in certain ways, but he's use fear-based rhetoric as well, sort of. Truth always cuts both ways. Right of, for example with the the migrant caravan Rev. Samuel Rodriguez leading highly respected Hispanic Christian leader gone the stream with my friend Ralph and Rev. James Robison. They did a great interview about the migrant caravan and Rev. Rodriguez pointed out that they had information from Honduras that there were some radical leftists that stirred this whole thing.

In other words, it was not primarily based on people fleeing the poverty of Honduras. It was primarily based on people get all or much of it that got the momentum going was left wing, radical activism to try to make Donald Trump look bad if you try to fight against certain things in America are right and and he also pointed out that that Mexico has said hey if you looking for work come and work your they're not interested in that. So what River Rodriguez is rightly said, if you have a genuine need that apply yourself, your family, apply gracious as we take in large numbers of immigrants every year and were a nation of immigrants yes wonderful great also a nation of laws. However at some of the rhetoric that you will hear from the president or from other Republicans is is also fear-based, you'll hear continually from the dark affair. If the Republicans way in the whole world are collapsing here for the public event Democrats with all worlds go cops the world like the collapse.

Either way, all right, but the stakes are certainly hot when I want to encourage you to do if you like me, believe the Bible is God's word in your great goal is to please the Lord, and to live according the biblical principles I want to encourage you not to get caught up in the rhetoric from either side right in terms of party platforms in terms of things that matter to me identify with the Republican Party platform, not the Democrat party platform even though I'm a registered independent. I agree with the platform that's put forth by the Republicans and the issues as of said many times that are the most crucial to me begin with the pro-life movement. And for those that that ridicule pro-lifers is that we just care about the baby in one euro here at the baby after a false false false pro-lifers.

I know are holistically pro-life.

Many of them room involved in the adoption movement.

Many of them help parents that decide to keep their children and on and on it goes. So we are holistically pro-life's healthcare. I personally am not a healthcare expert. I have not studied the issues in depth, but according to my understanding, most of us on both sides agreed that the healthcare system as we've had in America is much as we have great healthcare options. Many of the costs involved can be hi there many difficulties with it and there were people who were left out of the system.

Hence what became known as Obama care. The problem was not that we did not want to extend health care to everyone. The problem was that many of us felt that the system developed by Pres. Obama and before that by Hillary Clinton was not the best alternative bill which we need something better set matter taking healthcare away. It's about providing better healthcare now map point something out the midterm elections in 2010 so Pres. Obama's first term were absolutely disastrous.

They were the worst results of any president since the Great Depression.

I mean there was a massive shift in the house and Senate governors lower houses Congress. There was a dramatic shift. There were there was an immediate pushing back against his agenda and dissatisfaction of his agenda immediately. All right, whatever is being predicted coming as president trump this time. Despite the mainstream media's unrelenting attacks in the molar investigation dragging on and on. There it is him anyway that the repudiation is to be a fraction of what was with Pres. Obama just to put that in context but over the years.

There was a lot of dissatisfaction with Pres. Obama's health care plan and in the whole idea that it has to be repealed is not just to get rid of it to but but to replace it with something bad or okay so don't get caught up in rhetoric on either side.

Don't get caught up in rhetoric on either side. Instead because your values for me again starts with pro-life the most holistic sense, and therefore I'm a vote for a pro-life candidate over pro-abortion candidate any day of the week right if I felt the pro-life candidate would be a mass as a leader. In other words, that they were pro-life but they were the worst possible candidate and their candidacy would be a joke that I would. I would have to vote of a third-party folder to set that out because I couldn't voting conscience is among me before the Lord. I could not voting conscience for Kennedy he was there great candidate. Otherwise if they stood for the shedding of blood in the womb and then I'm strongly profamily. Yet you've heard this for me from years families God intended it did not intend to meant to be together is husband and husband are two women to be together as wives and wives or kids to be raised by two daddies or two mommies.

I'm not saying that the couple still care for each other that they're not devoted to the kids there raising.

I'm simply saying it's not in the best interest of society is not in the best interest of the families long-term. Therefore, never vote for a true profamily candidate and for me, will we stand with Israel is very important. There other things that are important for their second or so, I will devote based on principle based on policy a lot of things about Pres. comes public personality. I don't like but when it comes to the principles and the policies many things he advocates are things that are in Courtney's to me still, can you get caught up in all the rhetoric because that is going to get us into emotional irrational error on the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown. Your voice is more cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown motioned to the line of fire or truth. Let me throw something else out all right through the South.

What if we listen to the so-called progressive Christians tell us that under no circumstances can we vote for Donald Trump. Under no circumstances can we vote for Republicans that they've lost their heart and their soul that that to vote for them is to compromise our faith that even to deny Jesus. What if we listened these quote progressive Christians now let me once again remind you that if you differ with me if you think I am wrong, I love to hear why some months back. Or maybe year or two back I asked for folks to call who identified his committed followers of Jesus and yet vote for Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama because for the life of me I couldn't understand the justification for that. Just on the abortion issues and homosexuality issues this those areas to me that would be like voting for proslavery candidate. The days of slavery are and I couldn't see how they can be justified under any circumstances. I got some calls from some committed believers who explain their views to me and although I still didn't agree with your vote. I understood where they're coming from, was helpfully here didn't persuade me, but we have civil conversations was helpfully here. I I fully understand why many of you remain repulsed our president trump, for whom I voted for him I would forget given the same circumstances. I understand why you have a problem with and you look at him he say he lies so interviewers are clip reasons why I tell the truth as much as a cat. If that's the way came out is all politics is why most politicians lie or maybe executives more than others, and you the lead tears down others or he appeals to fear and that in and nationalism. At its worst in all this and is this gets us all in the gutter. I can I can vote from. All right you I respect that. As long as you and vote for Hillary Clinton in the process you follow on saying those I I could respect a believer saying I just could not vote for the man for XYZ reasons. I feel it would it would. There's too much compromise. This we've had good things happen in America. A lot of good things happen under trump, but it's been too costly. Okay, I disagree. I was, I think that the good is fraught with the bed, but I owned. I'm sympathetic to that argument.

I understand that the person closest to me in this world who has my year, more than anyone on the plasma wife, Nancy, she voted for president trump a boy does she have a problem with him.

You know she's not one of his fans though she voted from an initial somewhat dear friends have gotten close with with him one particular in and speaker who is in private and keep praying for him standing with him and but I'm sympathetic.

I am sympathetic to that argument to say okay couldn't vote for him for XYZ reasons. As long as you and vote for someone that supports the killing of the unborn, right up to the ninth month that that avidly supports redefining marriage that that would fight against our religious liberties that that to me would be hypocrisy. I really took issue with the caller I would've kept a mom that we had a bad connection. And because of which are our listeners were not able to hear clearly thrifty God is point out I had to to take him off the air, but I would've gladly interacted with him because he was calling you hypocrite voting for Donald Trump.

Yet he vote for Hillary Clinton Barack Obama is a professing Christian will that that is going to get a strong response from me to say I couldn't vote at all. I respect that understand I can't get II just had it with politics.

I think it's more the same whoever's in power just drags it. You know it's okay were citizens a heavenly kingdom. I don't think I can vote our idea differ with that but I understand that were passing through this world and at this item you're perfectly Christian candidate or party or platform, and I understand fine, but it's when I see hypocrisy that I could greet up limit we read something to you and it's it's a from my recent article.

What if we listen to progressive Christians, which you can read my website ask Dr. Brown.org I believe that each side has something to say on certain issues. In other words, when it comes to immigration. The Republicans may have a stronger stand on law and order and were nation of laws and if you and just like you lock your door at night right or just leave you staying in the insert there you expect there to be security well get on your stay in a hotel and expect the doors to be lock on the who wants to come walking down the hallway and into your room the same way were nation of laws we we have to have restrictions against anyone just coming to our country are always overnight destroy the integrity of the country or very soon will further destroy the integrity of the country so republicanism is strong on that, but often have not emphasized the legitimate needs of potential immigrants. Where is the liberals have done a better job of emphasizing that bit of lost sight of the law and order parts of yes there's a left and there's a right is one of my colleagues that you can fly with a left-wing or right-wing understand but but let me let me listen. Let me share with you with some said, for example, Jim Wallace, who is far left evangelical and while standing for many good causes and being a voice to to awaken the church and challenged social conscience. In many ways this is way to the left of where I be comfortable and actually received funding from George Soros is as parts of the left in terms of funding activism is as you can imagine, so he he took his issue with Jerry Folger in your calling Donald Trump a dream president, which I will take it. She was well but he said this, but many African-American, Hispanic and Asian American evangelicals are experiencing Trump's presidency is a nightmare in the body of Christ around the world, which is overwhelmingly Christians of color, is utterly astonished that 81% of white American evangelicals voted for Donald Trump that 81% numbers become a dramatic international symbol resentment representing a betrayal of the body of Christ is commitment to racial reconciliation and justice court in the Wallace what evangelicals voting for Trump represent a code a crisis in the church and he said this a Trump evangelicals are destroying the evangel. The good news of Jesus Christ.

He says Trump evangelicals have so completely and uncritically offer their faith and allegiance to the man in the White House.

They have compromise the gospel of Jesus Christ whose values the president's life has stood empathetically against okay what what if we listened to the liberal Christians like Jim Wallace or Brian McConville have tried to reach out to them to malls in particular, without success. In the past for private or public dialogue and welcome that any time on the radio or public debate that a campus setting or just private dialogue and interaction with Lucent progressives well for the most part they vote Democrat for the most part they they vote for Hillary Clinton for Barack Obama, they vote for pro-abortion candidates. They brought vote for pro-homosexual activist candidates, many of them vote for candidates that don't stand with Israel that that have a very slanted view of the Middle East conflict and many of them stand for social programs that in the end really don't help the poor. They liberate the poor. They don't lift the poor. So if we listen the progressives we we be in a situation now where abortion would be all the more entrenched where we we beat we be facing a real attack on a religious liberties that LGBT activism would be more than rampant in the children schools even more than it is. And on and on, listening to those voices except where I believe they have a balanced perspective or bring balance to a perspective on certain issues because again no one group has a perfect perspective on everything but as my issue with its it's getting me away from ultimate core values but understanding that my trust in the Savior is different than my vote. My trust in the Savior is in a perfect Savior, a perfect God. But my vote is an imperfect person and imperfect party in an imperfect system so it's always good to have a different perspective is that making sense.

I lets go to the phones in Idaho, CJ, welcome to the line of fire around all of her to give up small background on the question just a little note.

Everybody knows the early but become editorial candidate here in Idaho: Jordan Hughes and claiming things such as Republican or Democrat are Democrat okay and she has been saying some very wild and cultic hounding things like that. There are prophecies about her election that you starting a global revolution and she has paintings of herself of the Virgin Mary and these are all things that are very well known and out there ordered by the GOP think like that so they're not exactly you know conspiracy theories are. I wanted to know two things. Number one.

Why do you think nobody is really concerned about this really weird like Jim Jones in the rhetoric in my own opinion. And secondly, do you think that there is a possibility that she may be either correct or being informed by some people who may think that she is correct yet.

CJ, I'm sorry to say that a lot of things I followed nationally. I just have not followed the race in Idaho. I'm really not familiar with with candidates. This is the first I'm hearing of some of this so that being said, obviously the GOP is going to do its best to exploit with listen whatever comments anybody if if I was this thought was running for political office. Albany would need to do is just go through no thousands of sermons a mile over the years and pick something about the people be lost without Jesus you know or or services from shouting hallelujah yelling worshiper. You know, whatever.

So your your opponents always going to try to take something and make you look extreme work or whatever take something out of context so as you send GOP is exploiting this but I just don't know CJ that most of us know about it. Otherwise we be hearing more.

That's one thing but does she genuinely believe this. This could well be. She may have some spiritual guides around her that her way out there and later genuinely prophesy things about our could be. I'm sorry to say I don't know Morse or I will check the woman wondering ever say it's the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown let's let's all try to do this together. This, take a deep breath and let it out as look to the Lord.

Worship him, honor him door him.

Maybe you been watching the news, maybe CNN, maybe Fox may be been reading your local newspaper may be been interacting with people on social media and it's getting kind of friend general elections. Almost all and by the way, after midterms is that I can slow down is going to be an intense two years up till 2020. Barring some unexpected events so we need to be able to step back, get our heads above the fray.

Spend some time with the Lord you peace before him. Then vote then be involved but not the way the rest of the world is one of the points that I really emphasize my new book Donald Trump is not my Savior and evangelical leader speaks his mind about the many supports as president. One of the points I make is that we must rise above the political fray.

In that sense we must be God's independence party wherever we vote to Riverside.

We stand on. By the way, you haven't ordered the book yet, by all means order. It's going to be just as relevant.

The day after the midterms. As the day before the midterms. If you been reading it and you've enjoyed it, post a review on Amazon encourage others share it with friends on social media.

I believe there's some important messages in the book that we need to get out to the public as lords and in particular to fellow evangelicals. Most of the phones.

My dear friend Larry Tomczak regularly commenting on the issues of culture. Honestly Larry how you doing man what I'm doing great and everybody get Mike awesome, thanks.

Thanks for the cheerleader hey Larry, how can we maintain our focus.

How can we be first and foremost disciples of Jesus and only secondarily involve the political party all like well I think every day spent time with him who worded pioneering and given our church family than the rule and reign in and then of course Beckley being bald in light you know that our our our mandate are mixed within old backgammon and avoid evil and we are privileged, I think, in an arc beside we can then all we can have an opportunity to determine if our nation, our families, as we pray and vote.

I could try to get by priority right click the gospel. Every single day. Give myself to you know God's work, but it done rented a theater and in America. I believe very clearly we have a big possibility the boat and tomorrow today and you a big big big midterm election and and some specific thoughts Larry about the upcoming election. Some some things that you've received recent written out when you say you share your faith every day.

You personally not comparing anyone else.

I don't want anyone to feel pressure to be Larry Tomczak but you personally do you actually try to share your faith daily like you know me yet my past and I just got back from Orlando Glenda Brownsville that we had in the I was there in perfect episode that evangelism lifestyle and the law that you want to do all in in sharing the gospel and I can tell you this yet for I tried were parked at everywhere I go and live it you get my testimonial track I have three or four in my pocket and I just give them as I engage people, but a get this out there a couple weeks ago my daughter was a student with us at the school in Pensacola. I was backstage with a guy named Marilyn Manson and God gave her a divine appointment and dinner. She was just feet away from from the spell and get are you been kind of a reckless guy. We pray for him for long time to get Christian upbringing but my daughter was able to write something and get it to him so you know she's following in line with that and I just think every day we could keep our our our eyes open and be looking around and just like Jesus taught Nathaniel that a man in whom there is no guile that hey, how you said you know that any said well I saw you said none of the three Jesus noticed people so that's what we gotta do it meant to. I think you're great what you have little testimonial track and wean your story with people which I try to do every single day through 34 people a day in front you know, like a law you immediate an adventure.

I love it is so is the end of the year you have engage people personally hundreds and hundreds and hundreds is the end of year, some in depth, some very quickly to share the gospel. Yeah, like you know what I like that deck back and I thought you don't. Three a day, you take that five days a year. I thought that the thousand people and a little more than a year, I'll celebrate your birthday. As a Christian I thought well since I been doing it for decades. I thought man at the stadium built by 40 to 50,000 people were I've been had the privilege to client a fee and that's what I try to do everything the biggest plant that's needed verbally or with my little testimonial track with whatever it might be end up we can reach people. I just read uploaded and I just clicked it out from USA Today today. You can get front page of former neo-Nazi. I mean a white supremacist adding this guy was hard-core and it caught my eye and I read the article I thought man was good guile, but you know what last few paragraphs talks about how he became a Christian man, his life was revolutionized and he was baptized and he found a new life in Christ, I read bit and you know it started a neighbor engaging talking and out of that came an invite to a church service and imagine now.

A man revolutionized there's going to be a documentary, but it all started every day making time like you know Kylie Baker. There she is in Mozambique and she says take time for the one guy slow down. We gotta look for opportunities and connect that you and I did with a former Supreme Court Justice at the LA airport years ago. Yeah, actually has executed a success in their lives and they were sharing the gospel. Larry III asked. I asked those questions for two reasons. One, to encourage folks to put first things first ensure the gospel and to that they understand that you are primarily a disciple primarily a soul winner. A disciple maker, but as someone living in this world was a follower of Jesus. You then engage in the society you and you engage in politics so you have your priorities in the right place and it's a reminder to all of us that great commission comes first before anything. That being said Larry what what thoughts would you have for listeners and reviewers in terms of the midterms in terms of the importance of our vote. Share your heart with us.

Yes. Will Mike we heard it said, and I'll repeat it in extremely critical election in the past 200 years and I read that your there's only been three time with the party of the president has come out with again, head during the midterm.

The rest of the time there's losses.

There's there's shifts major shift and were living in a time where there such upheaval and such hostility and confusion, and all the rest we've got to look at a candidate and it has nothing to do with well moderate. Not knowing independent weight on the public going I would I vote Democrat backing up looking at candidate in their positions.

What's the platform what they represent and I feel for us and I just talked to a guy in Kroger supermarket yesterday you Excel and we had a great conversation because what one thing I'm not. I don't want to be a one issue guy and he said that because I talked about the sanctity of human life and protecting the unborn to speak up for those that person. I want to be one candidate, one issue candidate.

We talked about 1015.

That's what you know what I said Mr. Michael Tom. II understand issues that are preeminent and those that are of lesser importance. Let me ask you is what figure 7, eight issues and you would check off well texting and maybe military here and there, you know, but the unborn.

I would be one issue that I would put right at the top you check it off with the candidate and then you found out that he was a grand Dragon or wizard in the Ku Klux Klan and that would be the only issue that you different. Would you both simply said no way within your you be a one issue person but Mike, we've got to evaluate the candidate and stepped back as you well know, and then we have to vote and let you in on the last presidential election.

Evangelical Christians. Evangelical Christian audience that 16 million didn't vote in debate were not registered or they didn't bother to vote and so we have this responsibility in people. So I how do you know all the candidate well it's hard. You don't really, but there are major issues that we can put our our our X on the line there and candidate and I just paid it. Look at the platform we got political parties and I don't have to mention it, but there's been a real friend. One party left leaning increasingly in the position are scary.

With regards to moral issues and I can't personally ever be voting for somebody that supports abortion on demand, and Planned Parenthood, etc. along with other issues that are contrary to Scripture.

So I get to go to the other person even though they may not be a Christian.

So I don't know if that's answering the question. But my heavens might so critical. I just want to say everyone liftgate plea. Please go out and vote God for divine guidance and wisdom and see it as a an honor and a privilege that we have in this country to influence and help shape the future and the future of our children and grandchildren by those we elect to positions of of off office representing Larry we just got a minute for my last question, but to think sometimes that we are too idealistic and are voting that that were looking for a candidate or party that simply will not exist on this planet absolutely got me. It therefore if I was to run for office. You're not a man. I got my thought that by white people that don't predict, so there there's flaws, but when we look at again. What do they represent what do they stand for and I'm not mentioning any names that were automatic tendency. I know what candidate and this particular person I've spoken with an person is radically committed to Jesus Christ. The other candidate is kind of thing will I stand with the aborigine island you know I like the and with Tennesseans and all the rest that well a person cannot get my boat. I'm stand with the one that even though she he she may be flawed. I know what they represent. So look at the policy. Look at the platform and then align with them, got it all clear. Hey Larry, keep up the great work, keep sharing the gospel and may the Lord touch and save Marilyn Manson a man I love you love him and thanks write back with more your calls and using talking points elections coming up. 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 my friends for joining us on the line of fire. I have an article on the website. It's titled midterm talking points for Pro trump evangelicals midterm talking points for Pro trump evangelicals.

If you are an evangelical voter you consider yourself a committed Christian voter and you want to vote for candidates who will support much of what Pres. Trump is doing his vote Republican not Democrat will have people saying well if you do that you're not a real Christian. If you do that you're denying the faith. If you do that, because the man he isn't in your compromising well. So get some talking points for you starting here one Donald Trump is not my Savior. He didn't die for my sins and I will all my life is a Dr. Brown.

You keep saying that yes I want to get the point across so very very much struggling with the title of my new book Donald Trump is not my Savior.

It's it's a positive message, not a negative unless he is your Savior but you look to him as your Savior was that's a positive message and its message were shouting to the world you evaluate might my testimony watch my life. My vote is a pragmatic vote imperfect person and imperfect party in an imperfect system is pragmatic. It's based on evaluating okay which is better for this event and then coming to decision my faith is based on absolutes. My faith is, is based on a black and white on truth and error an ungodly.

Not that this was based on right and and might my salvation is dependent on the character of Jesus, not the character of trump. Donald Trump is my president. He got my vote. I don't worship at his alter again another talking point user yourself just by putting first person for you. I voted for him because he's pro-life is exceeded my expectations. Not only has he appointed to solid justices to the Supreme Court. Please appointed scores of pro-life justices to the federal courts and pass pro-life legislation be? With Hillary Clinton have done big question. I voted for him because his pro-Israel: anti-Semitic is ridiculous. Not only see the first president with a Jewish child into his grandchildren, but he moved her Embassy drizzly corrupted confronted the corruption of the Palestinian leadership.

He got out of the disastrous Toronto and he pulled Americano some blatantly anti-Israel UN organizations. We have had a president do that before I voted for him because he promised to fight for religious liberties, and he's done everything I just I met opposing the Johnson amendment I mean is vote for liberties both in the court of public opinion in the courts questionable with Hillary and the Democrats have done this laying out talking points for you give me one more. I voted for him because I was concerned about the genocide of Christians in the Middle East at the hands of ISIS under tripe under tripe under trump. ISIS is been devastated, which means that many lies and say that like I can imagine he put a negative spin on this.

There is a reason that according to polls, African-Americans have a higher approval rating for Donald Trump than the did in terms of voting for him, and higher than they have historically for Republican presidents could be because some of his policies are having a positive effect in the workplace of the economy.

Could that be in people of all backgrounds call is that this is so appreciate that you like a lot of what he says and does with these things.

I appreciate one more one less the little phones I voted for him because he opposes radical LGBT activist begin.

These are talking points for has let me down to push back against the misappropriation of title IX by the Obama administration is pushback against trans activism in the military even stop celebrating Gay pride month and you not to be redone. The boat, but with Hillary and the Democrats have done.

That's I voted the way you say. Well, what about your face will look at my faith is in Jesus watch my life. This in my words read my books this leap make my preaching talk to my family about how I live. That's my faith that's that should be your faith in terms of look at my life. Look at how I live look at what I teach and preach and believe. Might my votes over here my life. My faith is over here.

My vote is just something I do as an extension of my life is on my faith. It is is not is not the essence of my spirituality would gonna make that distinction. 866-34-TRUTH we go to New York Adam walking to the line of fire. Dr. Brown and welcome my phone call. Yeah I looked a vineyard in the questionable, and I'm sure you'll find question not readily apparent. How we organize ourselves politically building individual has the best hand to develop his relationship with God. Based upon this goal. This premise we found that the United States of America upon Judeo-Christian moral values, i.e. the Bible on this call was realized on the principle of limited government representation. Separation of powers is enunciated in the Declaration of Independence and structured into our Constitution that is unfortunately we have deviated from the principal and therefore we are spending way too much of our personal time on politics and that's why we have this issue with Christians being confronted with because we are in such a dire situation that and they don't know about these principles upon the founding of the federal government, and that's why they actually don't know where the goal ultimately gives which I believe on the principle that I just enunciated so therefore what I would ask her request. The question I of that of spending all of your time speaking just about Donald Trump. Would you be so kind, whom I voted for currently support and will vote for again is there any chance of including in your topic. The political conversation weaving into the conversation. Our government should be operating under those principle that is just the none. Yeah, great question and comment first let me say that I agree that Christians in America obsessed with politics more than Christians may in other countries, but one reason is because of our foundations because of what we've come from.

Because of the vote that we have the role that we can play if we were in a dictatorship. We were in ancient Rome. It's a moot question. You know you can't vote no make those decisions and the only question is how to live a loyal godly life in the midst of it. So once again the liberties and freedoms and opportunities we have can be a blessing or curse and that's why my book saving is sick America. I emphasize that to make America great. You have to make America good to make America good. You have to have God and that means we have to go back to our foundations so I Adam I think it's a great idea and that limit. Let me just say this obvious that talk about all kinds of different things on the radio right now with my book. That's just come out and with the midterms upon us, obviously talking about Donald Trump and elections more than I normally would. But that being said, yeah.

These are important issues and I think it would do well if we did have some of these discussions and because I'm not a constitutional expert.

I did a lot of digging for my book saving sick America but I'm far from an expert on any of these subjects would be good if I have some guests on the can discuss these very things and talk about the foundations how the government is supposed to operate and and what we can then deduce from there going forward. So Adam I do appreciate it. You're one of the thing I I talk about things that that I'm burned about that. I know the most about you don't hear me talk about economy is much you don't talk to me talk about immigration as much. You don't hear me talk about nuclear arms race is much you don't hear me talk about aspects of international politics as much as I'm not as expert in those who hear Marco van for example you talk at length about constitutional issues, etc. because the service of specialty brand with animal will do our best to speak into that I think is a very valid point and well taken.

Thank you's are and let's see if we got time I was going Marilyn Andrew, welcome to the line of fire overgrown gory doing very well. Our goat writer agree with many parts of oh what about how what how on one corridor there people who unit 88 garden eight. Every thing about guns were white pro-life old marriage and religious liberty, but on the other employee, especially among minorities. There has been a bit of trust between government and the local absolute speak because there like think about how they don't care about don't care about the usual racial each of the note north of the then they don't look too much with the poor go on cut color like opening up make that can make, one Peter taught her a bit in their view of how the boat you know I could because you could be out one issue person when it comes to racial equality. You can be a one issue person when it comes to care for the poor and that could be the whole thing for you and that's what what ways think so so and you I apologize for him to jump in but I literally have a minute right so to honor your call and your comment. Allow me to respond number one. The Republicans need to do a better job of reaching out to minorities and showing more genuine diversity within the party and genuinely showing that their policies would most help for I don't believe and minorities in many ways. I don't believe the Democrats have helped. They have kind of a stranglehold on on the allegiance of many, but I don't know that they've help them. The welfare state so they don't believe has helped remove the policies of help that had likely received Republicans ignore us and the Democrats take us for granted. But Andrew wrestled right in some of the presidents rhetoric I feel is not helpful in this regard while he's talking about illegal immigrants that shouldn't be here. You can speak in a way that seems disparaging of immigrants in general. So as you. I understand that he was hollering make sense to me and something that Republicans you have much more sensitive to.

If they want to really be the party of the whole country. Thank you sir for the call back with you tomorrow
