Does God Promise to Deliver Us from Suffering?

What about the promises in the Bible that the righteous will be delivered from trouble heaven reconcile that with the trouble we experience in this world 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 now by calling 866-34-TRUTH.

That's 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown friends.

We are going to talk about some really challenging issues of faith today on the line of fire, and we are going to build your faith in the process. Michael Brown, welcome to the broadcast.

Welcome to everyone listening on your car radios.

Everyone listening on your computers will listing on our path may be on your cell phone everyone listening on our audio feed on Facebook and our video feed on YouTube welcome friends to the line of fire before I discuss some faith questions. Today I want to draw your attention to an article I wrote late last night asking the question, why is there so much hatred towards Christians in America today was late last night.

I'd been doing a lot of writing through the knighted book projects of the things I was working on and decided to wind down, I thought, no, no, I can't.

I need to address the question why so much hatred against Christians in America today can read that on the website asked her to Brown.org David French cultural commentator lawyer David French tweeted out on Sunday, the day of the massacre. The amount of anti-Christian hate on twitter the same day. Christians were massacred is stunning and chilling yet.

You would think if there is any time. If there is ever a time in our nation where there would be sympathy for Christians and people coming together and holding back on some of their anti-God sentiments. This would be the moment. Instead, for some, this was the time to vent Laura Ingram on her show on Fox News last night talked about this very thing referencing the elite hostility to people of faith.

So I asked the question why is there so much hostility towards people of faith, in particular conservative Christians in America today. I will give you four reasons quickly for reasons number one, there is the fruit of the new atheism. The aggressive atheism, not with new arguments, not with better arguments, just with more hostility and mockery and ridicule through people like Richard Dawkins in the late Christopher Hitchens and others so that venomous God mocking faith mocking tone has spread more and more in the culture so those that hate what we stand for are even more open and vocal about.

That's one reason second reason is this the culture wars conservative followers of Jesus are known as those who stand against abortion and those who stand against redefining marriage so we are labeled all the time your Nazis. We are bigots we are homophobes we are transposed look at some of the extreme hostility coming towards believers or those that oppose abortion.

I'm an ugly ugly attack from the radical pro-abortion crowd the same look I get death wishes all the time in the most vulgar, ugly terms. It's what comes with the turf. Some of you don't have the same platform. I do, but you getting your social media blast it all the time because you stand against redefining marriage and think a kid should have a mom and a dad so that hostility is made Christians the evil bad people. There's 1/3 reason that that worn-out lungs get a Donald Trump. So whatever he does, that people like when I blame Ford as well, as many thought he was a better choice for president. Many of us notice a better choice for president than Hillary Clinton and then forth forth reason is that the darkness always hates the light, that's the way it's always been, and that's the way it's going to be until Jesus returns to the extent we represent God's light to the extent we are the moral conscience of society we are going to be hated.

We come back. I want to play the clip for you from CNN's Don lemon don't go anywhere here on the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown I said I'm not anti-thoughts and prayers by any I grew up in a very, very religious deep South, a Baptist who went to a Catholic school where we prayed at least four times a day plus mass on Fridays and Sundays. Sometimes twice so spare me the anti-religion tweak you can keep them. I want to read them. I don't care. I Don lemon on CNN is talking about everyone posting thoughts and prayers, thoughts and prayers.

He sitting in prison Obama the thoughts and prayers. After the church massacre and any wanted to say that there's got to be more done than that. However, he went out of his way to silica, not anti-religion or not – religion, thoughts and prayers are important. So here is my problem, and Donna, I hope you do get to watch this you reference reading your tweets and I'll certainly Tweet this to you once it's available but but Don, if your goal is not to demean thoughts and prayers.

If your goal is not to demean the importance of people praying, then why make the contrast at all, and everybody here is a little bit more of Don lemons talk is God fearing Christians were in church. They were already praying thoughts and prayers did not stop in oversight from the justice system, which enabled a guy who attacked his stepson and assaulted his wife from getting a gun thoughts and prayers didn't stop a trouble person from buying assault grade weapons that took the lives of 26 people in an instant right again. Why downplay the importance of prayer. In this context when the tragedy happens is the first word out of your mouth can be when you change the gun laws we need to see how there was live set. The first thing or is the first thing standing with the people.

So all the tweets that Don lemon cited, all of them that he played for the audience. Work with those who are immediately after this is the response to suffering and pain right right now, people hanging between life and death are they going to be helped. We are in a fight and and and pass better gun laws. If that was the solution as I can help you know right now, pray for those people and will and what about those that are in agony and bereaved right now and coming to terms with half their family or two thirds of their family or three quarters of their family being ripped away from them in this world. And what about those that survive the trauma of what they're going, you better believe right now the most important thing we can do is pray for them and and and listen. Knowing God and praying this not mean that we will experience trouble and difficulty in this world. Everybody does but were asking God to help us in the midst of it and to give us his grace to sustain us in the midst of it. Why make it an either or thing. Why even have any contrast to do so and Donna speak to directly to do so gives the appearance that you are demeaning the importance of prayer and demeaning the importance of God's intervention, and I ask you again. The bereaved right now. They need comfort from heaven. They need comfort from the Lord. Those that are hanging between life and death. They need not only the best medical care, but perhaps a miracle to make it, that's gonna happen through prayer not through changing gun laws and here's the other point of it. There was an oversight. There was an error if the laws had been operating properly if if military personnel had rightly entered information into the database. If things were done properly a few years ago when the Senate was discussing cracking down on some of these loopholes and making sure things were properly entered.

The man would not of been able to obtain a gun legally and perhaps would've even been in jail for trying to obtain a gun. The tragedy could have been prevented. So to contrast this with thoughts and prayers.

Number one makes no sense because were not just praying with her eyes closed as a liquid praying all God help me when I cross the street to not to not run into a truck know we what we cross the street with our eyes open. We live in this role with our eyes open and we pray because God is God can do things that we can't do, and we lean on him in every situation. Alright so prayers are always crucial and prayers are always going to come first and along with that. How about enforcing our current laws now at the end of the talk Don lemon talks about how many weapons that someone be able to have an Anglican arsenal judge anybody on okay that's a whole other discussion.

And that's a fair discussion to have. But let us not have it in the context of thoughts and prayers as if there is anything wrong with that being our first response and there's anything wrong with that being are always response know it is not the only thing we do.

But John Bunyan said it like this, I may not have the quote exactly it's roughly this.

There are things you can do more than pray after you have prayed right but the first thing the thing that comes first is prayer alright.

Having said that, let's address this larger issue of why do certain things happen to believers that we talked about little bit yesterday we talked about Psalm 91 and the promises of protection. There, but there are many, many other verses effect.

This came up in my debate with Prof. Bart Irvin asking the question, does the Bible provide an adequate answer to the problem of suffering that we did what was it was April 2010 it's on a website you can watch it if you ever watch the debate. Just go to my website Esther to Brown the Lord in the digital library search for Urman EHRMANEHRM a and you can watch our two hour plus debate, there, but he challenge me, you know, with verse from Proverbs that righteousness delivers from death of the righteous are delivered from death. What about Ecclesiastes say hey you know, time and chance happens to every body and it would seem to be contradictory and I pointed out to him.

We chatted about this briefly after the debate, and he was in a completely civil and we had find traction before the debate after the debate we have deep differences but he's quite civil and differences. We are having and to scholar and and I should look the final editors of Scripture.

One of the step.

Both of these verses. In other words put aside divine inspiration in God ordering that we have the Bible, the fact of the matter is, the final editors of Scripture, those that work ultimately responsible for putting things together in one book or one collection wanted both of them to be there wanted Proverbs to be there.

One of the Ecclesiastes to be there wanted Solms to be there wanted Job to be there and and there are Psalms like Psalm 34 Mandy are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord delivers him from them all, and then the many promises of deliverance from danger and deliverance from death inscription so so how do we reconcile these reconcile these with the fact that you have Christians worshiping in a church shot to death little children, so any picture more innocent the little children or babies in them being slaughtered and you think of the madness of it. The guy in body armor with a helmet shooting children screaming and hiding under pews and is try to kill them, and if I understand correctly, was was going back into the building with handguns when he was shot by that the neighbor with a rifle so hot.

How do you put these two pictures together now for sure we are promised persecution for the faith that's in always so believers are suffering all around the world and writing the Beatitudes, Jesus is right up front.

Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness. It truly happy for great is your reward in heaven.

Blessed truly happy you when they revile you, and speak falsehood and say all kinds of evil against you falsely, for my namesake.

Rejoice and be glad for great is your reward in heaven.

For the same way your me persecuted the prophets were being persecuted of all and and almost every single book in the New Testament addresses the issue of suffering for the faith and persecution for the gospel and this is a reality around the world only was Jesus crucified by a hostile world. But most all of the apostles were killed for their faith.

Think of that almost all the founders of our faith were killed for their faith. That is saying something right and around the world to this day, believers suffer terribly, believers are dying many a day all around the world for their faith. This is always this is a constant.

However, should believers be killed in car wrecks the same amount as the world should believers die of cancer the same as people in the world. Should believers die in hurricanes and earthquakes, the same as people in the world.

Should believers suffer the same things. The people in the world suffer outside of the faith will come back to that.

On the other side of the break hey friends, have you gone to our go fund me page it go fund me/asked Dr. Brown SDR Brown studio go fund me.com/asked Dr. Brown SDR Brown studio. If not, would you visit there. Watch the video and your gift of any size helps us to do so much of what we doing today.

So much of what we want to do tomorrow want to give away as many people as possible. Your health for and gives 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 friends say reality. It is what happened know what wrestle with it little ears minute will hear this right now, right.

So just give you couple seconds need to make an adjustment who's listening. There is an article posted on CBS DF W's of the CBS local news.com in in DFW Dallas-Fort Worth area gunmen checked each aisle shot babies at point-blank range of maintenance and I've been talking about what must've happened in the reality of it leaving could screaming and hiding under pews that that didn't stop him and one mother killed as she shielded her for children. The gunmen who killed 26 people at a small-town Texas church when I'll I'll looking for victims and shot point shot crying babies at point blank range, a couple who survived the attack said I and I know it's indescribable. I know it's evil on the level were not used to confronting.

Of course evil like this is taking place through your history.

Human history.

People of butchered babies in cold blood. For many, many different reasons.

When you hear of it in a setting like this.

It's just it's it's beyond description.

Beyond belief, the question again based on divine promises. Why didn't God protect them. Why didn't God deliver them. Certainly there will be people with miraculous testimonies of preservation this little comfort to the great majority who were not protected who either died or were going to some without divine intervention perhaps could be severely handicapped for life is a result of the injuries we don't know the extent so I think these are questions we need to address. Honestly, because we want to be able to read Scripture and believe God with a full heart not not with having to kinda ignore a passage or look the other way know what we need to be able to come in faith and confidence.

So how do we address these issues of promises that don't always seem to line up. Let me reiterate number one that we are promised persecution for the faith, never to be delivered from persecution.

There will be opposition to the faith.

Sometimes it could just be that we get slandered the line sometimes it could be rejected.

Sometimes with this job. Sometimes we go to jail. Sometimes were killed.

That may happen.

Jesus told his disciples in Matthew 10 we are persecuted one city, flee to another. That doesn't mean that you don't have good security doesn't mean on alarm system on your church building doesn't mean that if you live in a very hostile dangerous area. You don't take certain precautions news wasn't as mean any of the but simply means that persecution for the faith is something that's always going to come away when it does, we rejoice and as a sitting article.

Why are Christian so he did in America today.

It is first Peter forces if you suffer. Just make sure it's for the gospel, not for being a busybody or meddler thief or something like that so we suffer for the gospel would be for the gospel, not for hypocrisy, since one thing at a second thing is that say a book like Proverbs at a book like Proverbs is giving us principles to live principles to live by, and divine promises that come with that as opposed to giving you a textbook that in every situation. When this happens, this will happen. In other words, if you will look at a million people who live closely by the wisdom of Proverbs and compare that to million people who cast off by large, the wisdom of Proverbs you will see overwhelmingly that the million who live by Proverbs live longer like putting aside issue persecution for the faith they live longer lives they live healthier lives. They live better quality lies sin is costly.

Hear me just take one example, an alcoholic versus a nonalcoholic you go to get insurance a cigarette smoker versus a non-cigarette smoker you go to get insurance, life insurance, health insurance and and you find that things are different fees or different benefits are different based on how you live life expectancy you get online and say okay here's I live, and it'll tell you okay if you 70 your life expectancy is 92 and someone else. If you're 50 life expectancy is 53 now this is not guaranteed for every individual. There are exceptions to the rules, but God's ways are ways of life that the second point. If you watch on YouTube, but I made four points before first held up five fingers corrected that to for so here's here's 1/3 thing about the promises that in every instance where there is calamity.

You will hear miraculous testimonies of divine intervention. You will hear that one way or another, God got people through they don't know how or God deliver them miraculously in the midst of certain you're going to find that as well. And that's also what Scripture is promise and and then fourth and lastly, if were not delivered in this world we are delivered in the world to come.

And it's not a copout to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord to depart from this world is a believer is to go and be with Jesus.

So we have we have a video up about this, where Pastor Frank Pomeroy last Sunday before so the Sunday before the massacre. Pastor Pomeroy preached on heaven and having a home in heaven and preached on trusting God no matter what. And that is ultimately the answer you put a gun to my head and shoot me.

But all I do is leave this world and go into a better place to be with the Lord forever. Only it's a loss for those that are here and and you you want them to be with you and you want to be here for them. But as Pastor Pomeroy's message that you don't need training wheels. You need Christ were hardly talking training wheels. Obviously, when you have people massacred in that very building, but the message is the same.

The message was an apt message for the week before and this is what we live by. So ultimately when I look back at my life.

I'm amazed it would God delivered me from any pro se people were praying for me. Otherwise I can kill myself with my drug foolishness and things like that came very close to dying before was saved and almost died one time in particular after I was saved and God mercifully delivered me how many other things, his delivery from unbelieving no but I can testify.

He has delivered me time and time again I have friends who have died of cancer. I have friends who have died in car accidents, unbelieving friend, some talk about our friends whose lives have been cut short.

Just heard about a friend of a friend by today just dying in his mid-50s is the previous little Bible school.

I can keep your answers as to why these things happen. And remember, we have a book of Job, and in one lesson from Job is sometimes inexplicable things happen to the righteous right God remains good in God should be trusted and either in this world or the world to come. He'll make everything right. Therefore, we trust him explicitly. Therefore, we lean on him see how faithful he has been there, this world will talk about an important TV interview has 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 in a few minutes. I will is Robison broadcasted his Billy Graham's 99 birthday James had a close relationship with Billy Graham for many years will talk about that and James does have some thoughts about the Texas massacre the church massacre. We will discuss that with him as well.

866-34-TRUTH is the number to call a Chris in Asheville can get your call right now but but yes, you raise good question. Can anyone see someone's not save doing with the shoot did. In other words, if someone is right with God. They are not going to commit an act of murder, let alone mass murder, let alone mass murder in the church will belittle a mass milled murder in a church building, slaughtering children, babies obviously not an end. Many of us can attest that we were well guided to.

I wasn't violent in that way, but I was crazy broke into a doctor's office and some houses stole money from own father I would. I was a negative impact in society with my drug use in my vileness before God save me the age of 16.

Some of you are violent and got saved and transformed and saved your marriage. Thank God for that. The gospel really does make a difference.

All right, I just want to step away from this for a moment and discuss with you something very controversial at be getting bombarded with questions about this, and it's Pastor Carlin's pastor of Hill song church New York City so very well known church very well, movement, and he was on the view. He was asked directly about abortion and he made a statement that has many pro-life people very upset because of her relationship with Carl talk by phone never met face-to-face with talk by phone and often texted instant message each other.

I've been in touch with him and I want to read to you the statement that he put out today on twitter, but first listen to what happened when he was on the view Excel is not ascending on track to have an abortion best, conversation, we would have finding out your story where you're from or to the railway. Yeah, I mean God is the judge people have to live in their own conviction. If I have felt better for such a broad question to open and shut case with you.

Something with Avis, I think, to me, and from these people who Jesus is.

First, another story before I start picking and choosing what I think of sin in your life like to know your name so very easy to find fault with out to be upset with that.

To say what you make a clear statement. What you make it there was a conversation that you need to have for talk it through the person and Carl is actually passionately pro-life, and here's what he posted today since want to read it to you recently in an interview I was asked directly if abortion was sent. I did not answer the question directly for a number of reasons and that is cause some confusion about our stance as a church on this matter. I do believe abortion is sinful. Our prayers that we can continue to help and love those that deal with the pain of regret from personal choices rather than cast further shame and guilt on those really caring so much and create a church that can teach people how to form convictions based on God's word so his his emphasis. In fact, Matthew just put that backup for for one more moment.

There's little bit more to the statement based on God's word that will be the driving force in all the decisions I will continue to point people to Jesus. Above all else, every opportunity I get the story of God's redemptive grace available to all, is the best news available so what Carl is assaying with the likely set on. If you are not or will she said things differently. That's not the issue. I want to focus on the statement here and his point is obviously a lot of people have had abortions and he wants to lead them to Jesus. So they find forgiveness and redemption that is making yes does believe abortion since so I'll leave Carl issues with them. Excessive noise but I just wanted to read his statements. He had not here to defend or attack just form right now. We will file the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the minor fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown sometimes will be a heartwarming inspirational story that will be shared but generally that's not which can be shared so there's a massacre there's a tragedy there's something horrible that happens in our society like you get uplifted watching, listening to reading secular media stream stream.org you get the news you get what's happening but you also get redemptive perspective. You also get hope you get encouragement, so there are quite a few articles up on stream.org. I've got a couple in the aftermath of the massacre there quite a few others with faith testimonies with insight, spiritual and natural.

So stream.org.

I encourage you to visit there and check out the resources that are waiting for you in there to help you and equip you and strengthen you, my friend James Robison not only the long time host with his wife Betty of life today but also the founder and publisher of stream.org. Someone's been a close friend of Rev. Billy Graham Rev. Dr. Billy Graham for many years and Dr. Graham turns 99 years old James a quite a day.

Today isn't it really is Dr. know you're there in the great story or Billy found Christ invited home and a lot of tremendous blessing years.

They are posted right under a poster third your carburetor with that I get over your the pseudonym tractors of the First Baptist Church learning just outside Tonio but I posted a picture Billy Graham will stop up… Part and he sat down and is not really emotional tears well up. Ms. Jane did you hear about all of course you'd asked me to start witnessing to his son when his son was maternally stretches the college near the college I attended East Texas Baptist and I had tried my best to limp back on what I was early 20s and parking was an exchange in regular sundown energy. Others are nearby mobile and converted us bucket new service go inside after this night: limit now for some lunch and let me into David Wilson turnabout some Franklin's remarkable conversion so there's that little glimpse, but I was in my mid-30s right at 60 so was quite a while ago, but what a wonderful moment that was a been real close friends work together to put God's loving arms around her suffering around the world. So this a great day. Happy birthday Billy starting at 1900 millions to Christ. He inspired me encouragement. I been as great a friend as great an example of source of inspiration. Is anyone of ever known in my life. I just praise God that he said 99 years C. Jesus to his humility and through the grace to close all three parties. John Price Dr. Frank and all, Dr. Graham spent that you you had the privilege of knowing Dr. Graham personally, so very few of us have done that. I've never even met him here.

You were close to him for it for years and he helped boost you for writing your early days of ministry, we know the public persona. We know the track record of integrity behind the scenes.

We know the consistency of his message. We know all that, but behind the scenes. Knowing him one on one if someone set you what were his most outstanding qualities.

What would set him apart. What would you say would save among the greatest demonstration of your medical errors. He actually does not understand how the world argues he does not see himself as being gifted or talented.

He you know you say tomato and I like encourage arcane perch. I don't want a merchant or Alamo usually come forward uncertain nobility. The morning power of God's all captivating wages really didn't see that I wasn't. I wasn't just a sump sonnet, but he described Colón. He was my thinking is love and gratitude for what God did with others. He really felt a refill the least of these in gifting ability and and he was quite frankly, lived his entire life of mine used by God's amazing grace our ability to use someone like himself. He thought that he was so limited and certainly was and he really did show us a spirit of meekness English English so teachable. He was so tender and I just pray dear God, please give us the humility that here.

I'm 74 down on purpose. Many times I will be the most yielded clay God has in his hand so you in the spirit, communication to speak the language of the very people understand it until I got a child in elementary school were junior high school, learn how to live and I want God to teach menu price, you teach me a lot and let you inspire such a blessing yourself.but anyway let's just all yielded to God and let them shape us to look more and more like Jesus and Billy Graham is been backed out of an example for all of us.I spoke with a gentleman who's interviewed some of those famous people on the planet from world dignitaries to terrorist leaders to religious leaders and he told them a radio station some years Marin a few years ago that the one person that he interviewed that stood out the most to him was Billy Graham and I asked him why that was and he said will, every interview he did was about the person, but when interview Billy Graham Billy Graham made it about him. So did you find that to be the case that that his focus was really on you and that he was there for you no question about it. No question about it in August.

Model journey are sold by what Dr. that time he's always amazes me is a sharp person like me, effectively same to and I found myself so excited about what he's doing and unit arrived there when I talk about it. The excitement so real and yet even they can sound like I'm talking about is a lie. I cannot unless the farthest thing from my mind. I'm cynical what I'm saying is liquid darkened with anybody. Billy didn't even seem to be able to go back and talk about what God was doing as though it was something spectacular because he still trying to figure out the Laurel investors happen and all those people come to Christ he still pregnant was or somebody else here. Most of them, a musician coming that's just the way you talk and amaze you such a joy to be around. I'm so grateful to about a love the family and been blessed to be close especially to the other room and some of the others in her sleep at Nuno and Graham Palazzo television just love it. But the thing about it is Frank and his just today become such a statesman and I'm so proud. Everyone I know is been registered and again you knew the family. It in ways that that the rest of us don't and didn't Franklin's told the story in his book rebel with a cause, but we just about two minutes before the break that I want to talk about the video you put out in the aftermath of of the shooting in on Sunday but how loss was Franklin went when he was lost. He was a railroad called Iraq after he came up so that the God what we are calling the Texas set with me would start doing our pilot program and I we gave examples. One of the largest church. I don't live in the hundred thousand dollar check every minute that particular moment. I was the largest or better… In a single check to encourage marriage first because we know about Pearson world vision of the purpose nurse. We just wanted encourage trying to breath Frank and I have a lot of fellowship. We both like hundred euros a final actually taking fish and I would I would serve all these dates first will have some fun out of the outdoors and what would you do a gargle right bear smoked cigarettes.

If you tell me you never not a great bear smoked cigarettes.

He said this just was a rebel James and really we get back to getting a grant from abandonment back and it was quite the amazing thing Billy was so real that it happened over stages that Franklin just met Jesus and was converted a rebel now is his book said with a call. Amazing. I friends Billy Graham 99 years old today and James II heard Franklin in March. There is a conference leaders coming together in solidarity with persecuted Christians worldwide and he said that his his dad keeps joking and we got the 90 cities to live to be 95 and then we got to 95 system to make it to hundred and here is 99 George Beverly Shea made it to pass to hundred was still singing and lucid at that age so amazing grace which means that they you're just a young man I'm just a kid's health but I know Laura North Carolina about five your head up and Billy was a series of the door. There assistance to the joint patient bears 100 armor exec I said hundred he's honored my view yeah he's fast I friends we come back. James Robinson is as it is gone viral and I want to ask him about this and he hit his sensitive nerve and he hit it right on her plan by the Expo line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown your voice and more cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown. So on Sunday I was talking devastating.

Got home and then put out a two minute video on Facebook then wrote an article both gone good circulation videos. Watch for 30,000 times and we got 550,000 people following us on Facebook so to see it. 30,000 times is not surprising. James put a video and even though his reach on life today and is his mapping dwarfs the reach that I have you massive your millions and millions of people watch the TV show on his Facebook page he is 19,000 people.

It's just it's new and he put out a video and his video has been viewed now over 213,000 times it went viral. Almost immediately I James, I just sat back and thank God for your voice again and said how the world I mean you were in advertising and promoting it. It just took off what is it you feel that the message that that you brought in the immediate aftermath of the massacre with with tears in your eyes what is that you think caught people's attention are not hopefully good somehow coming from God's heart.

If you look at my place.

It's rare, James Robinson, RBIs when our meddling hours Jesus to court having but anyway be back tears outside of the top of the father sharing his heart, which I am a father, grandfather, great-grandfather, two of my great-grandchildren with just your couple of hours ago, the so cute and nicely on the evidence of polisher is our hope to share the capital. The father's heart and and that really is my prayer always on my heart that I pray to be your start. I really feel? Mother went out of the fading light you set out on up patio habits real wooden painted black behind me, which I will, because pricing was pretty close to even have a freedom but we do and I just felt that I needed to call her prayer, but I really thought I needed also called for common for people to cease. But Paul said to Timothy wrangling about work. He referenced fruitless discussions that lead to the ruling of the hearers and fruitless discussions leading to the ruling of the hearers. Watch for failing to Betty throughout America, from the media to Washington to Congress to every area of life and the people today don't just want to disagree.

My point and not disprove what your salmon want to destroy members at destruction of the evil one pleaded of the next day that to people who go free love-freedom of being forced into unity by crisis and by the evil one, and evildoers will be forced to come together and and so I felt like start on the thing about the ability to protect oneself and get rid of all weapons in a not here. This is going when it knows everything that's happened even how many exactly.

But there was enough killed in a church and you realize there was nothing going on and simply make a statement.

Don't start learning about work, your work done.

I should stop to mom since it's leading to the ruling there of the hearers. I supportive several had concealed weapons.

My wife and have a right to carry concealed weapons mark children and grandchildren. So many I know I supportive several had been carrying concealed and crudest optical equipment. He will hurt.

We didn't even know that someone comes running up to the massacre with their own weapon and am actually shot because they were a member of the highly criticized NRA which I'm a member because I believe we have Second Amendment like I think we have right to bear arms.

I think we have a responsibility to fulfill the command not to oversee the planet to be overseers of everything agape watch care and heavy focus own property but above all, in our families, and personal life and in we can dispense coming up current line defender helps dog will defender puppies.

Is there a personal bird with in the next alleviate human beings supposed to be the only person that would let some predator come into our neighborhood into our home to tricky to write and kill outline dollars and we want our property under our good God commanded people do not and told us to oversee reproductively everything are we supposed to spam bear lit evil prevailed and absolutely not. And we know Romans tells us that their authority is right to protect us by punishing evildoers, even bearing the sort and the building of all to protect the people and watchman work the magic of the wall to protect from evil forces coming to her or damage the property or the people and they would spend it with the sort. The amount including the wall with trial in one hand the soul with the weapons the spear.

Whatever else in the other hand, knowing that beautiful and Jesus took on the powers of hell that destroy life everything and be those horses just like Mariah but the people was defeated by David the shepherd example of Jesus. He was a type of Christ, and he took the giant down when someone is sick so warily at several stones arrived at brothers, Michael. We are wasting so much time with nonsense and not just that I've got this is this wrangling about work with the ruling and even the destruction of the hearers.

No group on this planet won't criminals to be kept from firearms anymore than members who believe in the Second Amendment and many of them are in a member of the NRA. They hate to see a criminal or a person on state have a weapon that could tell people they can't protect their families can enjoy a hunting or enjoyed the pursuit of game unit, you realize that people think if we chicken are we meet with murderers and yet those same people will tolerate the murder of the most innocent, helpless life on planet in the womb of the mother. So this is how in staying in this band wrangling about work going on the American people. Hurting us terribly since you can hear – some of that and more about the gospel by going to rev.
