00:00:21.000 Maybe Charlie Kirk is on the college campus.
00:00:23.000 I want you to know we are lucky to have Charlie Kirk.
00:00:26.000 Charlie Kirk's running the White House, folks.
00:00:29.000 I want to thank Charlie.
00:00:31.000 He's an incredible guy.
00:00:32.000 His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA. We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:00:49.000 That's why we are here.

00:01:13.000 Go to noblegoldinvestments.com.
00:01:17.000 We're not waiting around.
00:01:18.000 It is rapid pace time.
00:01:19.000 It's shock and awe.
00:01:20.000 We're taking back the country.
00:01:21.000 Affirmative action, gone.
00:01:23.000 Hiring practice at the FAA, restored to merit.
00:01:26.000 We're doing pardons.
00:01:27.000 Ross Albrecht is out of prison.
00:01:28.000 January 6th, that is all handled.
00:01:30.000 We still have some things to clean up on the January 6th thing.
00:01:33.000 The president is delivering.
00:01:34.000 The president is doing more in 48 hours than most presidents would do in four years.
00:01:38.000 And they know it.
00:01:39.000 So President Trump had a whole schedule of events, and typically, as the tradition is, you end at the National Cathedral with a national prayer service.
00:01:49.000 It's usually, okay, thank you, pray for the president, pray for the vulnerable, pray for peace, fine, no problem.
00:01:58.000 So the president goes to this national prayer service, and this unhinged lunatic, who's a bishop by the name of Marianne Edgar Buddy, is the bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington.
00:02:12.000 She's the first woman to hold the position.
00:02:15.000 Now, my take on this is a little bit different.
00:02:18.000 Some people say, how on earth was she allowed to speak?
00:02:20.000 Of course, that's a fine take.
00:02:22.000 I'm actually glad she did this.
00:02:25.000 It shows the bitterness, the improper behavior, the violating of customs of what the American left has actually become.
00:02:36.000 The sloppy theology.
00:02:39.000 Let's just play right here.
00:02:43.000 I actually have not listened to it yet.
00:02:45.000 Did you know that?
00:02:45.000 I was so busy yesterday.
00:02:46.000 I was looking at...
00:02:48.000 Just the transcription.
00:02:49.000 This is Cut 84. It's a minute tape.
00:02:52.000 National Prayer Service.
00:02:53.000 President Trump is there.
00:02:54.000 Won a great election.
00:02:56.000 Popular vote.
00:02:56.000 And he has to go get scolded.
00:02:59.000 This woman is scolding the President of the United States.
00:03:03.000 Play Cut 84. I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country.
00:03:11.000 We're scared now.
00:03:14.000 There are Gay, lesbian, and transgender children in Democratic, Republican, and independent families.
00:03:24.000 Some who fear for their lives.
00:03:28.000 And the people.
00:03:29.000 The people who pick our crops and clean our office buildings, who labor in poultry farms and meatpacking plants, who wash the dishes after we eat in restaurants and work the night shifts in hospitals, they may not be citizens or have the proper documentation. they may not be citizens or have the proper documentation.
00:03:48.000 But the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals.
00:03:53.000 They pay taxes and are good neighbors.
00:03:57.000 They are faithful members of our churches and mosques, synagogues, wadara, and temples.
00:04:06.000 Joining us now is Calvin Robinson, priest and broadcaster and great friend.
00:04:12.000 Calvin, welcome to the program.
00:04:14.000 First of all...
00:04:16.000 So glad that we won.
00:04:18.000 I want to get your reaction on that.
00:04:19.000 But what is your reaction to this woman?
00:04:22.000 I share your take, actually, in that it's good that this was exposed because we've just had 48 hours of jubilant celebration and I'm still euphoric.
00:04:31.000 And I know everyone I bump into the street, you know, everyone's wearing MAGA hats and scarves and everyone's kind of having a great time.
00:04:37.000 But it's good to be reminded of why we had to fight and why it was important that we won because of people like this.
00:04:43.000 In that sermon, right, she's got the...
00:04:46.000 Best opportunity she'll ever have in her life to put forward the gospel to many people who will never hear it in their lives.
00:04:53.000 This is the national theater.
00:04:54.000 All eyes are on her in this moment.
00:04:57.000 Now, as a Christian, she could stand there and say, Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior.
00:05:01.000 He died on the cross for our sins.
00:05:04.000 He offers every single one of us salvation.
00:05:07.000 All we have to do is repent of our sins and have faith in him.
00:05:10.000 Come to church.
00:05:10.000 This place is open for you.
00:05:12.000 You are welcome here.
00:05:13.000 She could have said that.
00:05:14.000 She could have proclaimed the gospel.
00:05:16.000 Instead, she chose to lecture Donald Trump on her leftist, radicalist, extremist politics, which just goes to show the mess that the church is in at the moment.
00:05:25.000 But what's interesting is, what did she say at the pulpit?
00:05:28.000 Oh...
00:05:29.000 We need these immigrants for our menial labour.
00:05:31.000 You know, who's going to clean my dishes?
00:05:32.000 Who's going to make my coffee?
00:05:34.000 We need these people.
00:05:35.000 We need these servants, essentially, is what she's saying.
00:05:38.000 And of course, she's doing, as you're aware, she's doing the old thing of conflating illegal immigration.
00:05:43.000 With legal immigration, saying not all immigrants are criminals.
00:05:46.000 Lots of them pay taxes.
00:05:47.000 Yes, the legal immigrants pay taxes because they can work.
00:05:51.000 Illegal immigrants do not pay taxes because they work illegally.
00:05:54.000 Therefore, they are criminals because they're here breaking the law illegally.
00:05:57.000 She knows this.
00:05:58.000 She's a smart woman, but she's conflating on purpose to make it look like Donald Trump is anti-immigration.
00:06:03.000 Now, as someone who is not a US citizen that is living and working in America, I'm thankful that there are some legal entries for people to come into this country.
00:06:12.000 But there should not be people coming in illegally breaking the law.
00:06:16.000 Nobody should be breaking the law.
00:06:17.000 That should always be punishable.
00:06:18.000 That should always be a crime.
00:06:19.000 But then she's also breaking the church law by being at the pulpit in the first place, Charlie.
00:06:25.000 The scriptures are very clear on this, that women cannot become bishops.
00:06:28.000 A bishop should be a husband of one wife, it says.
00:06:31.000 It goes as far as saying a woman should be silent in church.
00:06:34.000 I know some people with modern ears will cringe at that, but this is what the scriptures teach us.
00:06:38.000 If we followed the scriptures, we wouldn't be in the mess that we're in right now.
00:06:42.000 Boy, is that right.
00:06:43.000 I think you're 100% correct, by the way.
00:06:47.000 So, Calvin, let's just take a step back.
00:06:49.000 You and I spent great time at the TPUSA Faith Believers Summit this last summer.
00:06:56.000 You were so morally clear on the existential terms of President Trump's election, and you basically said it would be the suffocation of Western civilization if...
00:07:09.000 This does not, if President Trump is not successful.
00:07:12.000 We have won.
00:07:13.000 We've taken power.
00:07:14.000 What is the significance of this?
00:07:15.000 The West has been saved.
00:07:17.000 And that's not hyperbolic at all.
00:07:19.000 Christendom has been saved.
00:07:21.000 This was it.
00:07:21.000 We were at a crossroads.
00:07:23.000 America had a choice.
00:07:25.000 They go down the same path as the rest of the West.
00:07:27.000 I'm talking about my homeland, Great Britain, and much of Western Europe, where it's diversity, inclusion, and equality are the new idols.
00:07:35.000 Everyone worships multiculturalism at the extent of the culture of the homeland.
00:07:39.000 The predominant culture gets degenerated to nothing.
00:07:42.000 We could have gone down that path, or Americans could have chose something different, could have chose a return to common sense.
00:07:49.000 And I said at one of his rallies that, look, this is about...
00:07:54.000 Not voting for the perfect politician.
00:07:56.000 No politician is perfect.
00:07:57.000 They're all people.
00:07:58.000 But this is about voting against the evil of the Democrats who wanted liberalisation of abortion.
00:08:03.000 Let's just kill babies en masse.
00:08:05.000 They didn't believe in free speech.
00:08:07.000 I remember Tim Waltz saying, well, free speech isn't always free speech.
00:08:10.000 Very, very dangerous words in a country where its constitution is founded on the principle of free speech.
00:08:15.000 And so the idea wasn't to vote for the perfect man, Donald Trump.
00:08:18.000 He's not the perfect man.
00:08:19.000 The idea was to vote against the Jezebel spirit.
00:08:24.000 Thank God that the Americans voted the right way.
00:08:27.000 And you know why I think this country is saved and why I think the West may be saved?
00:08:31.000 Because of prayer.
00:08:32.000 And it all comes down to that miracle where Donald Trump's life was saved.
00:08:36.000 And I'm not saying he is anointed.
00:08:38.000 I'm not saying he has any special ability.
00:08:40.000 I'm saying his life was saved for a purpose.
00:08:42.000 And I believe that it's to save this country and potentially to save the rest of Christendom.
00:08:47.000 Because...
00:08:47.000 As a result of that miracle that millions of people around the world saw, Americans were praying again, praying more than they have been for a long, long time.
00:08:55.000 And as a result of their prayer, God has saved this nation in a way that he has in others.
00:09:00.000 My homeland, the United Kingdom, I believe he's handed over to our desires because we've stopped praying.
00:09:04.000 What a beautiful statement that is, Calvin.
00:09:07.000 You've been worrying, cautioning, and warning about the influx of the Mohammedans to the West.
00:09:14.000 What does this victory mean for the preservation of the society that you and I love against such forces?
00:09:21.000 Everything that we know to be true, beautiful and good is so because it's founded in Christian values, including the United States of America.
00:09:28.000 People can say separation of church and state, talk all that fluff what they want.
00:09:31.000 We know that these lands were founded by Christians with Christian ideas.
00:09:35.000 And that means we can welcome people of other faiths than none.
00:09:37.000 That means we can have diversity if we want to.
00:09:40.000 But it means that we must hold to what we know to be true, beautiful and good.
00:09:43.000 And there are people from other parts of the world who have different ideologies that are...
00:09:47.000 It's countered or contradictory to ours and would destroy us, would destroy our way of life.
00:09:51.000 But we have to fight with everything that we can against that.
00:09:54.000 Mohammedan culture is a great example.
00:09:56.000 Throwing people off roofs because they are same-sex attracted.
00:09:59.000 Not allowing women to leave their house unless they're accompanied by a man wearing a post letterbox niqab.
00:10:05.000 It's against our fundamental beliefs of liberty and faith and family.
00:10:09.000 And we as Christians have to uphold those values whilst allowing other people to find them too.
00:10:13.000 The beauty of the Christian faith is that we have free will and we need to show...
00:10:18.000 We don't force any men like they do.
00:10:23.000 Hey everybody, Charlie Kirk here.
00:10:24.000 Remember that we vote every day with our dollar.
00:10:26.000 One of the best ways to support America is by buying from local farms and ranches.
00:10:31.000 Good Ranchers makes this easy by delivering 100% American meat to your door.
00:10:36.000 When you shop with Good Ranchers, you're not just getting the best meat for your family, but you're also supporting American farmers and ranchers.
00:10:43.000 Instead of buying imported meat, support American agriculture and our local economy.
00:10:48.000 I've used Good Ranchers meat for quite some time, and they never disappoint.
00:10:52.000 Whatever your choice of protein is, you'll be pleased with Good Ranchers.
00:10:55.000 Use code Kirk for $25 off your order and your choice of free chicken breasts, ground beef, bacon, or wild-caught salmon for a year.
00:11:04.000 It's time to take a stand.
00:11:06.000 Vote for American meat with Good Ranchers.

00:11:24.000 So let's talk about the West more broadly.
00:11:26.000 What is the impact of President Trump's rise, triumph, and victory for the United Kingdom and for the rest of Europe?
00:11:33.000 Well, let's talk about the state of the United Kingdom.
00:11:35.000 I mean, we have people who are being arrested for saying things the government doesn't want said.
00:11:39.000 My good friend Tommy Robinson is still in prison now, a political prisoner.
00:11:42.000 And let's compare that to what's going on over here.
00:11:45.000 So Donald Trump gets into office.
00:11:46.000 What does he do?
00:11:47.000 He pardons the January 6th political prisoners.
00:11:50.000 Fantastic.
00:11:51.000 And as you point out, there's still work to be done there.
00:11:52.000 But this is a bold move by a politician who's saying...
00:11:56.000 I'm not going to be beheld into what the narrative is put forward by the mainstream media.
00:12:00.000 I'm not going to be beheld into my peers and contemporaries around me.
00:12:04.000 And there are certain Republicans who object that the J6 has been pardoned and released.
00:12:08.000 He says, I'm going to do what's right.
00:12:10.000 Now, flip back to the United Kingdom.
00:12:12.000 I've got friends who've been arrested for sharing things on Facebook, for retweeting things on X. And of course, as I mentioned, Tommy Robinson for releasing a documentary that contained information the state did not want getting out.
00:12:25.000 Now, our politicians are petrified.
00:12:27.000 So even the ones that think they're conservative, they won't even meet with Tommy Robinson.
00:12:31.000 They'll say, no, no, his brand is too toxic.
00:12:33.000 I can't do that.
00:12:34.000 So we don't have anyone yet strong enough with the political will to say, I don't care what the legacy media says.
00:12:40.000 I don't care what my peers around me say.
00:12:42.000 I'm going to do what's right.
00:12:44.000 That's what I'm praying for.
00:12:45.000 I'm praying for a strong, courageous leader.
00:12:47.000 So therefore, it has to be someone founded in the faith.
00:12:50.000 People are pointing out, leaders like, well, is it Nigel Farage or Trump?
00:12:54.000 Nigel Farage, you know, I've worked with him for many years.
00:12:57.000 He's a decent bloke.
00:12:58.000 He got Brexit done, thank God for that.
00:13:00.000 But he's no Donald Trump.
00:13:02.000 Because he doesn't have a Christian faith.
00:13:04.000 We need a leader who's founded in Christian values to his very core, because that means they'll push beyond that ambition, that career drive, that wanting to be liked, and strive to do what is right, what's good, and what's true.
00:13:17.000 That's what we're looking for.
00:13:18.000 I don't know where that leader's going to come from, but when we look at what's happening in America, we can at least take a bit of that.
00:13:24.000 We've always said that when America sneezes, England catches a cold, right?
00:13:27.000 And we're already seeing the impact of the Trump effect, if you want to call it that, in that people are finding enthusiasm and they're feeling inspired for the first time in a long time.
00:13:37.000 In the United Kingdom, things are dark, things are heavy.
00:13:40.000 I've got friends who've been arrested for silently praying in their own heads, for goodness sake.
00:13:45.000 We've passed free speech.
00:13:47.000 It's thought crime that we're at in the UK right now.
00:13:49.000 And so when people see what's happening in America, they say...
00:13:51.000 We can turn things around.
00:13:53.000 The pendulum can swing back.
00:13:55.000 Yes, you can.
00:13:56.000 It takes a vibe change, doesn't it?
00:13:58.000 We have to change.
00:13:59.000 We can't wait on the government to do it for us.
00:14:01.000 We, the people, have to change.
00:14:03.000 I love it.
00:14:05.000 In closing here, what is your message to the pastors in this country on how to accelerate this transformation and lead it towards a revival to the ultimate purposes of leading people to Christ?
00:14:15.000 All comes back down to prayer.
00:14:17.000 The reason America has won is because America has been praying again.
00:14:20.000 But winning the election, getting Donald Trump into office, is only the first step.
00:14:24.000 We've got to win back the entire of the West.
00:14:27.000 And even just in these United States of America, there are still some states where babies are being killed on a daily basis.
00:14:33.000 There's all kinds of evil going on.
00:14:35.000 We have to continue to pray.
00:14:37.000 We have to pray more.
00:14:38.000 And that means that the pastors have to be bold.
00:14:40.000 They have to be strong.
00:14:40.000 The ones who were afraid to speak out on COVID... The ones who close their churches need to find courage.
00:14:46.000 I mean, this bishop, Marian Budda, is a good example.
00:14:51.000 She's still wearing a face mask in her avatar on Twitter.
00:14:54.000 Have you noticed that?
00:14:55.000 It's a virtue signaling.
00:14:56.000 We are part of the establishment.
00:14:58.000 Move away from that.
00:14:59.000 Move towards Christ.
00:15:01.000 Do what is countercultural.
00:15:02.000 Do what is bound in the faith.
00:15:04.000 And these pastors need to speak up and be bold and say...
00:15:06.000 Yes, Donald Trump is not perfect, but he's the man for the job.
00:15:09.000 And look what he's doing.
00:15:11.000 They need to say, we need to vote against these Democrats like Gavin Newsom, who are going to let the whole state burn down because of their politics.
00:15:18.000 We've got to shift away.
00:15:20.000 We've got to be unafraid of speaking on political issues because the faith is political.
00:15:25.000 It teaches us how to live good lives.
00:15:26.000 And good and evil is objective.
00:15:28.000 It's not based on what people around us think.
00:15:30.000 When we've got a bishop at the pulpit saying...
00:15:32.000 There are gay and trans children.
00:15:34.000 No, there aren't.
00:15:35.000 The Christian message is there aren't.
00:15:36.000 You can't be a trans child.
00:15:37.000 You are either born male or female.
00:15:40.000 Someone is saying their child is trans, and they are indoctrinating that child into a harmful ideology where they'll end up with a surgical mutilation and a genital mutilation, and that's abhorrent.
00:15:50.000 And there's no, you know, the gay children, the children are not gay.
00:15:53.000 Some people in their lives struggle with same-sex attraction, but the church should be teaching them and helping them through that, not pushing them towards it.
00:16:00.000 And I think, you know, seeing that the pride flag is being removed from all U.S. buildings and the U.S. flag is being added back to them, it's a good sign that...
00:16:08.000 The time of pride is over.
00:16:09.000 We're now entering the time of patriotism.
00:16:12.000 Calvin, you're terrific.
00:16:13.000 You're welcome at all of our events.
00:16:15.000 You have such a sharp way of presenting these topics and these issues, and praise the Lord.
00:16:22.000 God voted early on July 13th in Butler, Pennsylvania, and now we are fulfilling that.
00:16:27.000 Let us not forget it.
00:16:27.000 Let us stay humble, and let us honor God in all that we do.
00:16:31.000 As it says in Deuteronomy, love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, strength, and mind.
00:16:36.000 Thank you so much.
00:16:37.000 Thank you.
00:16:38.000 you.
00:16:42.000 God bless you.

00:17:46.000 Joining us now is the legendary Jack Kibbs.
00:17:49.000 Jack, we missed you at the inauguration, but you made the right move.
00:17:52.000 How is your house?
00:17:53.000 How are things going in Southern California right now?
00:17:56.000 Yeah, Charlie, we're good for now.
00:17:58.000 The winds have been intense, as you can imagine.
00:18:00.000 Some of these winds...
00:18:01.000 Charlie had been clocked up to 95 miles an hour.
00:18:04.000 Some place reported 100 miles an hour.
00:18:06.000 We've been with power, off power.
00:18:10.000 We've had four and a half days with no power.
00:18:12.000 But the fires are predominantly west of us.
00:18:17.000 And right now, I got to tell you, right now, brother...
00:18:21.000 Southern California is a powder keg.
00:18:23.000 Everybody needs to be alert, to be watching for anything and everything, because there's definitely some nefarious activity going on.
00:18:31.000 I'm sure you'll hear more about that as investigations unfold.
00:18:34.000 Absolutely.
00:18:35.000 I want to talk about California in a minute, because the president is going to California, as you well know, Jack, in just a couple days.
00:18:42.000 As one of his first trips, he's going to North Carolina, then he's going to California.
00:18:46.000 And I just think that's remarkable.
00:18:48.000 But Jack, just from a pastor and a theological standpoint, and Jack, you deserve such great credit for your moral clarity, your fight for liberty, and how you presented to your congregation and your millions of people in your national audience the stakes of this election.
00:19:02.000 What is your take?
00:19:04.000 What is your message to the audience seeing this inauguration and President Trump getting back in the White House?
00:19:11.000 Well, the fact that God says in the word, I establish kings and I remove kings.
00:19:16.000 Also, Charlie, the wake-up call is that God gives us leaders that we deserve.
00:19:22.000 So what happened?
00:19:23.000 For a gruesome four years, we had a very, very tough situation with Biden.
00:19:30.000 The turnaround, Charlie, I believe is 100%.
00:19:33.000 I know this almost sounds self-serving to you and I, but I believe the turnaround has been because we have reached out.
00:19:39.000 We have been faithful to reach out, pleading to God's people to fast, to pray, to seek God's face.
00:19:45.000 And this is a spiritual...
00:19:47.000 A gift given to us by God.
00:19:49.000 Now, people are going to take issue with that regarding Donald Trump's bombacity or morality.
00:19:55.000 Excuse me.
00:19:55.000 We're all in that same boat.
00:19:57.000 Jesus alone is perfect.
00:19:59.000 And Trump is not our pastor.
00:20:01.000 He is our president.
00:20:02.000 And he was a great president.
00:20:05.000 He's going to be a greater president because God's hand is upon him.
00:20:09.000 Nobody can deny this.
00:20:10.000 And so the fact of the matter is, Charlie, I believe that what has been happening here in California for quite some time has actually been exhibited in these United States.
00:20:20.000 And that is God has given us a glimmer of hope for now.
00:20:24.000 And I think it's appropriate that he's coming to California, not only because of the fires, but he knows well.
00:20:30.000 That California, since 2014, has been turning red.
00:20:34.000 And Charlie, I'm going to go out on a limb here, brother.
00:20:37.000 I am going to say that in the upcoming elections, the midterms, and beyond, California is going to shock the nation.
00:20:46.000 You watch and see.
00:20:48.000 Jack, I believe you.
00:20:50.000 And I can't wait to join you soon at your church.
00:20:53.000 I think in about a month or two, we'll be there together.
00:20:55.000 Jack, I want to get your reaction to this person.
00:20:59.000 I don't even want to call her a bishop.
00:21:01.000 This activist.
00:21:02.000 Let's do it this way.
00:21:03.000 This is an activist.
00:21:05.000 I think that's the proper and appropriate term.
00:21:08.000 This activist who was scolding President Trump.
00:21:11.000 This is her explanation as to why she did this.
00:21:14.000 This is activist Marianne Edgar Budde, political activist, playcut 82. I wanted to...
00:21:23.000 To counter as gently as I could with a reminder of their humanity and their place in our wider community.
00:21:31.000 And I was speaking to the president because I felt that he has this moment now where he feels charged and empowered to do what he feels called to do.
00:21:43.000 And I wanted to say, you know, there is room for mercy.
00:21:48.000 There's room for a broader compassion.
00:21:51.000 We don't need to portray with a broad cloth in the harshest of terms some of the most vulnerable people in our society.
00:22:01.000 Jack Hibbs, first from just the improper delivery to do this the day after an inauguration.
00:22:08.000 Jack Hibbs, your thoughts?
00:22:10.000 First of all, Charlie, who does she think she is?
00:22:13.000 Don't let her little frail demeanor fool you.
00:22:16.000 The magnitude of arrogance and pride that she exhibited to disgrace the U.S. president, to school him like she did, on top of the overwhelming fact that she has no business being there.
00:22:28.000 And that's according to the scriptures.
00:22:30.000 She's usurping authority.
00:22:32.000 She's in a position that the scriptures, 1 and 2 Timothy says, ought not to be happening.
00:22:38.000 She's so out of touch or she's in touch with the particular side that she represents that it was her moment to be the prophet of nothingness, the prophet of wokeism, the prophet of defending those that are hurting.
00:22:53.000 Are you kidding me?
00:22:54.000 Charlie, I've been to the border numerous times.
00:22:57.000 I saw the border before Trump took office.
00:23:00.000 I saw the border after Trump took office and I spoke to border agents.
00:23:04.000 You want to talk about mercy?
00:23:05.000 They told me what was going on and what stopped when Trump in his first term took power.
00:23:11.000 That was an act of mercy because things were shut down.
00:23:14.000 The trafficking began to diminish and law and order began to prevail.
00:23:19.000 This person should be embarrassed, but I don't think she will be.
00:23:23.000 And whoever is responsible for having her up there did a great dishonor to the National Cathedral and to really what is called faith in Jesus Christ in this nation of ours.
00:23:35.000 Because the Bible tells us, Charlie, you know this well, that in the last days there's going to be false prophets, false teachers, false representations of what is Christianity, disguising themselves in the place of religion, but denying the power thereof.
00:23:49.000 There was no obedience to the word of God on this, and it was certainly not her place to say what she said in a public setting like this.
00:23:56.000 Disgraceful, but frankly, not surprised.
00:23:59.000 Sad to say.
00:24:00.000 Jack, what is your, let's just say, take on the status of the American church?
00:24:07.000 There are so many bold pastors like you and many others, but largely, the church was not as active as they should have been to get President Trump back in the White House.
00:24:17.000 Why is that?
00:24:18.000 And please, Jack.
00:24:20.000 Yeah, this is an amazing thing, Charlie, because we have been standing in this water in California fighting for our rights and for our freedoms as a church, understanding the biblical mandate given to the scriptures.
00:24:34.000 Given from the scriptures to us that, for example, Jeremiah 29, 7, that we are to be very engaged and very much committed to the welfare of our community.
00:24:43.000 And it's very clear from Proverbs 29, verse 2, that when the righteous are in power, the people rejoice, but when the wicked rule, the people groan.
00:24:50.000 So we as a church here in Southern California, we never did not have a Sunday where you couldn't sign up to register to vote.
00:25:00.000 We inform people of every proposition, of everything.
00:25:03.000 And people used to laugh at us, Charlie.
00:25:06.000 Churches laughed at us.
00:25:07.000 Pastors said to me, you're wrong.
00:25:09.000 You should preach the gospel.
00:25:10.000 Yeah, we do that too.
00:25:12.000 We can actually walk and chew gum at the same time.
00:25:14.000 We can preach the gospel and be righteousness in the community at the same time.
00:25:17.000 And Charlie, after 35 years, God has been honoring this position.
00:25:22.000 And so other churches, not so many, but other churches have caught on.
00:25:25.000 And it doesn't take many.
00:25:27.000 Remember, Charlie, God doesn't move always with a big crowd.
00:25:31.000 He takes those that are open and willing to follow him.
00:25:34.000 And we're seeing this shift.
00:25:35.000 And we're delighted about that.
00:25:37.000 But I am pleading right now for pastors to wake up and to get yourself out there on the front line.
00:25:44.000 Stop hiding behind your congregation.
00:25:46.000 Stop hiding behind your theology.
00:25:48.000 Up until now might be very theoretical.
00:25:51.000 How about putting it forward and doing it?
00:25:54.000 And then your flock will follow.
00:25:55.000 And you know what?
00:25:56.000 Maybe more people will attend your church when they realize that you are an instrument of light and truth.
00:26:03.000 Pastors, I believe that God gave us a gift by giving us four more years of religious freedom.
00:26:08.000 We better not waste it.
00:26:09.000 We need to speak up more than ever before.
00:26:11.000 That's my word, Charlie.
00:26:13.000 What a great message, Jack.
00:26:15.000 I totally and completely agree, as we should not look at this as just a reprieve, which of course it is from the heavens, but an opportunity for a harvest.
00:26:26.000 To bring people to Jesus.
00:26:28.000 Jack.
00:26:29.000 Yeah, absolutely.
00:26:30.000 Listen, revisiting this comment, well, Pastor Jack, you should just preach the gospel.
00:26:35.000 We don't get involved.
00:26:37.000 Wait a minute.
00:26:37.000 If we preach the gospel and people get saved, what do we do with them after that?
00:26:42.000 We're supposed to make disciples of all of them, Jesus said in Matthew 28. So preach the gospel is what we do.
00:26:48.000 Give them the gospel.
00:26:51.000 For God so loved the world, he gave his only begotten son, Jesus Christ, right?
00:26:54.000 He is the gospel.
00:26:55.000 He forgives sins.
00:26:56.000 He died on the cross for our sins, rose again from the dead.
00:26:58.000 What do you do after that?
00:26:59.000 Pastor, you are not an evangelist.
00:27:02.000 Your primary calling, Pastor, is to equip your church to do the job of righteousness.
00:27:08.000 Every day of the week.
00:27:09.000 And so we must do this like never before.
00:27:12.000 Charlie, we're going to be calling a statewide California gathering where we are now going to do a very, very new and revised reach to pastors who have sat it out.
00:27:22.000 Because, Charlie, I've got to leave you with this, man.
00:27:24.000 So many pastors have reached out in the last few hours and said, Pastor Jack, I apologize.
00:27:29.000 I see what you've been doing.
00:27:31.000 I see what's been going on.
00:27:33.000 And I want to be on the team.
00:27:35.000 And I'm telling them straight up, it's not team.
00:27:37.000 Jack, it's Team Jesus.
00:27:39.000 Let's obey the Lord and let's just be righteous until we see Christ face to face.
00:27:45.000 Let's go for it.
00:27:46.000 Amen.
00:27:47.000 Jack Kibbs, you're a great man.
00:27:48.000 I really appreciate your mentorship.
00:27:50.000 I was watching you actually live here in Washington, D.C. on a local TV channel.
00:27:55.000 Jack, please plug your website, Real Life with Jack Kibbs, your books, please, for our audience.
00:28:00.000 Yeah, the Real Life Network is available on any one of your apps, 24-7, 365. Very, very awesome content, Christian content.
00:28:10.000 So that's Real Life Network.
00:28:12.000 And then also this, you can go to jackkibbs.com for everything else.
00:28:16.000 Thousands and thousands of hours of teaching.
00:28:18.000 And then we're grateful that Living in the Days of Deception is a book that has now become a national bestseller.
00:28:26.000 It's just flying off the shelves.
00:28:28.000 We're happy about that.
00:28:29.000 Living in the Days of Deception.
00:28:30.000 And it turns out to be extremely prescient for the moment that we're in right now today.
00:28:36.000 God bless you, Charlie.
00:28:37.000 Thank you, brother, so much.
00:28:38.000 Jack, you're wonderful.
00:28:40.000 Thank you so much.
00:28:40.000 Hey, everybody.
00:28:44.000 Charlie Kirk here.
00:28:44.000 Brand new year, brand new opportunities to change the world for the better.
00:28:47.000 It's easier than you might think.
00:28:49.000 You can save babies by providing ultrasounds with pre-born.
00:28:52.000 Together with the Sanctity of Human Life Month, we're going to save 35,000 babies to show the world that not only do we believe life is precious, but we're going to do something about it.
00:29:02.000 Your gift to pre-born will give a girl the truth about what's happening in her body so that she can make the right choice.
00:29:07.000 What better way to start this new year than to join us to save babies.
00:29:11.000 And $28 a month will save a baby a month all year long.
00:29:15.000 A $15,000 gift will provide a complete ultrasound machine that will save thousands of babies for years and years to come.
00:29:21.000 And will also save moms from a lifetime of pain and regret.
00:29:25.000 I am a donor to this organization, and you should be too.
00:29:28.000 Start this new year by being a hero for life.
00:29:31.000 Call 833-850-2229.
00:29:33.000 Or click on the preborn banner at charliekirk.com.
00:29:36.000 That is charliekirk.com and click on the preborn banner.
00:29:39.000 I'm a donor.
00:29:40.000 You should be too.
00:29:41.000 charliekirk.com preborn banner.
00:29:45.000 There is so much news happening.
00:29:48.000 It is at a breakneck pace.
00:29:50.000 And it hasn't even been a couple days.
00:29:53.000 It's been 48 hours.
00:29:55.000 If that.
00:29:56.000 On the border.
00:29:58.000 On energy.
00:29:59.000 And we're seeing President Trump is...
00:30:01.000 More popular than ever.
00:30:02.000 Donald Trump's approval rating breaks records as Democrats even start backing him.
00:30:06.000 We're seeing ports of entry closed.
00:30:10.000 Removal of pride flags.
00:30:11.000 That's a big one, by the way.
00:30:12.000 That is more than just a ceremonial victory.
00:30:14.000 That is the removal of the pagan symbol.
00:30:19.000 It was the second national flag of the United States.
00:30:22.000 That was the American symbol worldwide.
00:30:25.000 And President Trump has just completely and totally removed it.
00:30:28.000 It was flying in Cuba and Korea and the Middle East.
00:30:31.000 There's no place flying at any U.S. embassy or the BLM flag.
00:30:35.000 This is all part of that project, the Cultural Revolution, to envelop and swallow the United States of America that we all love.
00:30:43.000 But America is roaring back.
00:30:45.000 We are roaring back.
00:30:47.000 And understand the profundity of what President Trump is doing.
00:30:52.000 We, the people, don't just have a seat at the table.
00:30:56.000 We own the table.
00:30:58.000 President Trump signing these executive orders is on we the people's table.
00:31:03.000 And the founding fathers designed this brilliant system.
00:31:07.000 And President Trump is a vessel within the framework that the founders gave us.
00:31:13.000 And all it takes is the political will and the courage.
00:31:16.000 And look at that.
00:31:16.000 These pride flags, one after the other, they're going to be taken down.
00:31:20.000 They have no place to be flown on any government institution.
00:31:25.000 One of my favorite things is people that I know that are now serving in government are texting me pictures of them taking down pride stickers in cafeterias.
00:31:34.000 Did you know that there is still mask signs all throughout federal buildings?
00:31:42.000 Mask optional.
00:31:43.000 Beware of COVID-19.
00:31:45.000 They're all getting taken down.
00:31:47.000 In the Department of Justice, Department of Interior, DNI, Central Intelligence Agency.
00:31:52.000 The FBI, they're all getting taken down.
00:31:55.000 By the way, you know what's even more amazing?
00:31:58.000 All of this is before President Trump even has his cabinet in place.
00:32:02.000 This is before President Trump even is able to get his people into positions of power.
00:32:10.000 The color revolution failed.
00:32:12.000 The cultural revolution was supposed to take over this country, but the American people roared back.
00:32:18.000 They went for it.
00:32:20.000 With Floydapalooza, the nation was locked down.
00:32:23.000 They've been waiting for it and they went for it.
00:32:25.000 And we have roared back.
00:32:27.000 And we cannot drop our guard.
00:32:29.000 And just the brilliance of President Trump's strategy.
00:32:32.000 Birthright citizenship.
00:32:34.000 Executive order on affirmative action.
00:32:36.000 Gone.
00:32:37.000 DEI. Gone.
00:32:38.000 Critical race theory.
00:32:39.000 Gone.
00:32:39.000 Pride flags.
00:32:40.000 Gone.
00:32:41.000 Drill baby drill.
00:32:43.000 And there's more coming.
00:32:44.000 There will be more pardons.
00:32:46.000 There will be more executive orders.
00:32:47.000 There will be more straining the federal bureaucracy because President Trump every day is going to counter the Cloward-Piven strategy.
00:32:55.000 And the Cloward-Piven strategy is a nonstop federal bureaucracy that is untouchable, massive machinery of federal bureaucracy that swallows the country, hyperinflation.
00:33:08.000 Open borders.
00:33:09.000 We know their playbook, and the counter is very simple.
00:33:11.000 You only beat evil with boldness.
00:33:14.000 Let me say that again.
00:33:15.000 You only beat evil with boldness.
00:33:19.000 You cannot beat the sort of treachery by just, oh, you know, we're going to trim around the edges.
00:33:26.000 And the bad guys almost know it.
00:33:27.000 It feels as if the Democrats are pseudo-surrendering.
00:33:30.000 Yeah, they're filing lawsuits and all this, but where's their gusto?
00:33:34.000 Where's their spark?
00:33:36.000 And we're not going to give them a chance to kind of get back up.
00:33:38.000 No, no, no.
00:33:39.000 We're going to keep on going.
00:33:41.000 They don't know which one of these things to fight.
00:33:44.000 They are aimless.
00:33:45.000 Do we fight against Kash Patel?
00:33:47.000 Do we fight against Bobby Kennedy?
00:33:48.000 Do we fight against Tulsi Gabbard?
00:33:49.000 Oh my goodness, he just revoked birthright citizenship.
00:33:52.000 Now affirmative action.
00:33:54.000 We have lit a hundred different bonfires against every single sacred altar of the American left.
00:34:01.000 Every single one.
00:34:02.000 And they can't put them all out.
00:34:04.000 They can't concentrate their forces.
00:34:06.000 And also, their ground troops, their infantry, they're not raising money.
00:34:09.000 There's no zeal.
00:34:12.000 And we are taking back the cultural institutions.
00:34:15.000 Of course, everything we're talking about is metaphorical and peaceful and lawful.
00:34:19.000 And that's why this show matters so much, is we help set the pace on this program.
00:34:23.000 We help set the pace.
00:34:25.000 Administration officials watch this feed, and they help understand all the dynamics at play.
00:34:30.000 It is the tip of the spear.
00:34:31.000 It is the cadence of which the administration is going to operate.
00:34:35.000 And you guys are part of history.
00:34:37.000 Thanks so much for listening, everybody.
