00:00:03.000 My name is Charlie Kirk.
00:00:05.000 I run the largest pro-American student organization in the country fighting for the future of our republic.
00:00:11.000 My call is to fight evil and to proclaim truth.
00:00:14.000 If the most important thing for you is just feeling good, you're going to end up miserable.
00:00:19.000 But if the most important thing is doing good, you will end up purposeful.
00:00:24.000 College is a scam, everybody.
00:00:26.000 You've got to stop sending your kids to college.
00:00:27.000 You should get married as young as possible and have as many kids as possible.
00:00:31.000 Go start a Turning Point USA college chapter.
00:00:33.000 Go start a Turning Point USA High School chapter.
00:00:35.000 Go find out how your church can get involved.
00:00:37.000 Sign up and become an activist.
00:00:39.000 I gave my life to the Lord in fifth grade.
00:00:41.000 Most important decision I ever made in my life.
00:00:43.000 And I encourage you to do the same.
00:00:45.000 Here I am.
00:00:46.000 Lord, use me.
00:00:48.000 Buckle up, everybody.
00:00:49.000 Here we go.

00:01:19.000 Thank you, Charlie.
00:01:20.000 Thank you for taking time away.
00:01:22.000 You're a daddy now.
00:01:23.000 I am.
00:01:23.000 Praise God.
00:01:25.000 How old is beautiful little Gigi?
00:01:27.000 Seven months. 0.99
00:01:28.000 She is seven months old and cute as a button.
00:01:31.000 Thank you.
00:01:31.000 So beautiful.
00:01:34.000 How's that impacted you?
00:01:35.000 Oh, it changes everything.
00:01:36.000 And if you thought I was radical before, nothing radicalizes you like fatherhood, I'll tell you what.
00:01:46.000 And what do I mean by that?
00:01:50.000 It not only gives you increased purpose and increased meaning, but also, you know, in the culture fight that we're in right now, so much involves children.
00:02:02.000 There's a reason for that.
00:02:03.000 We could talk about that.
00:02:04.000 And it's all throughout the scriptures of evil tyrants filled with dark spirits going after the firstborn.
00:02:11.000 Going after children.
00:02:13.000 And when you have a child of your own, it motivates you to want to win and crush these evil people more so than ever before.
00:02:26.000 Thank you.
00:02:27.000 Well, thank you so much for taking time away from beautiful Erica and beautiful Gigi.
00:02:32.000 I was looking forward to this for quite some time.
00:02:34.000 We're also going to Awaken Utah next week, which I'm really excited about that.
00:02:39.000 And, you know, Juergen, both you and Leanne deserve such.
00:02:42.000 Great credit.
00:02:43.000 You know, I speak at, I really mean this.
00:02:47.000 You're being led very well here.
00:02:49.000 You are.
00:02:50.000 And boldly and courageously and biblically.
00:02:55.000 You really are.
00:02:55.000 You're very, very kind.
00:02:59.000 Thank you.
00:03:00.000 Thank you.
00:03:02.000 I mean that.
00:03:03.000 It really is a time where we're seeing the separation of people that are courageous and cowards.
00:03:09.000 And again, I speak all across the country, and one of the common questions I get Charlie, where do I find a pastor?
00:03:15.000 I never get that question.
00:03:17.000 From people in San Marcos.
00:03:19.000 I just don't.
00:03:21.000 And we have some other good friends here Pastor Greg Denham and some other good pastors that are fighting.
00:03:26.000 Great people.
00:03:26.000 Beautiful people, beautiful, magnificent warriors.
00:03:30.000 But there is something really special about what God is doing in California.
00:03:34.000 I know it seems overwhelming, I know there's so much, but it's amazing when I visit some of these other states, even though they might seem freer politically, they do not have a spirit of boldness or action.
00:03:48.000 Or community that you have at this church.
00:03:49.000 You have a lot to be thankful for.
00:03:51.000 You have a lot to be thankful for at this church.
00:03:57.000 Thank you.
00:03:57.000 You know, the Bible says that the righteous are as bold as a lion.
00:04:02.000 And, you know, sadly, we didn't, you know, we're seeing the righteous beginning to rise.
00:04:07.000 And when the righteous rise, the lion roars.
00:04:10.000 I've got some questions.
00:04:12.000 Is that okay if I jump straight in?
00:04:13.000 You can do whatever you want.
00:04:16.000 Yes. 0.99
00:04:16.000 Well, you know, whenever the media prints something, I always believe the opposite is true right now because they're freaking liars. 0.99
00:04:25.000 So they try to print a couple of hit pieces about how Christianity is dying in America and people are leaving the church in droves. 0.77
00:04:31.000 That's certainly not the experience from the pastors that I'm talking to.
00:04:35.000 Christianity, to me, is rising in America, but I heard you on a podcast talking about the five different religions that are seeking to replace Christianity.
00:04:47.000 Can you open that up for.
00:04:49.000 Yeah, so there's.
00:04:51.000 We are all inheritors of a Christian tradition, whether we like it or not, and we should be so thankful for it.
00:04:57.000 Things that we take for granted that your secular, non religious friends would act as if.
00:05:01.000 Is common sense, protecting of children, for example, or natural rights, the idea of borders, the idea of private property, these all come from a biblical Christian inheritance.
00:05:12.000 And so, as Christianity has become less popular in America, and certain churches are seeing church attendance go down, this one's increasing because you're not woke and you're biblical and you have great leaders, but in certain churches, they are seeing it go down.
00:05:27.000 And that's important to note that we have a God sized shaped hole in our heart.
00:05:33.000 And something will always seek to fill it.
00:05:36.000 And so, if you read the first five books of Moses Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy through a very specific lens, understanding the context of which it was written was a refutation of pagan, polytheistic, river civilization fake religions. 0.73
00:05:51.000 Fake religions are the norm.
00:05:53.000 There's only one true way, and that is Jesus Christ. 1.00
00:05:55.000 We call that Christianity.
00:05:58.000 Now, the way that we teach our children, though, is it's as if, oh, there's Christians, then there's non religious.
00:06:05.000 This idea of not believing in God.
00:06:07.000 Is a hyper radical kind of new phenomenon.
00:06:11.000 The norm is actually believing in fake gods.
00:06:14.000 And so, this idea of saying I don't believe in God is very modern and it's actually not very sustainable.
00:06:21.000 Atheism is a problem, but a bigger problem is somebody that creates a fake God or a fabricated version of Christianity, uses some of the worship elements, tithing, offering, community, atonement, promise of the afterlife.
00:06:37.000 Appropriates Christian promises and puts them under a fake religion.
00:06:42.000 That's actually much more attractive and actually will grow a lot more. 0.92
00:06:46.000 This idea of convincing wide swaths of people that there is not a divine order or there isn't somebody in charge or some reason for existence actually is probably going to fall flat on its face.
00:06:57.000 I'm not saying it's totally unpopular, but the greater threat is the five fake religions that are filling the void.
00:07:03.000 I did a whole speech on this earlier in the week. 0.99
00:07:05.000 I'm writing a long essay on it.
00:07:07.000 I might even write a book on it because I really haven't heard many pastors lean into this.
00:07:11.000 Because if we then acknowledge that Christianity needs to get more popular, I think we can agree with that.
00:07:17.000 What are the threats up against it? 0.97
00:07:19.000 Well, let's go to one that is really dominating our time earth worship, otherwise known as environmentalism.
00:07:25.000 This is not new, by the way.
00:07:27.000 So if we were to say, Charlie, can you describe God, the God of the Bible, to a layman, someone that doesn't understand?
00:07:34.000 God is many things.
00:07:36.000 Here's the best way I could describe it God is above nature, God is moral, God is personal, and God is holy.
00:07:42.000 Those are four characteristics of the God of the Bible.
00:07:47.000 Let me ask you a question.
00:07:48.000 When was the last time, if ever, you got a second opinion on your mortgage?
00:07:53.000 Or if you're renting, have you ever wondered if owning a home might be more within your reach than you think?
00:07:58.000 The truth is, a lot has changed over the last few years.
00:08:00.000 Home values have changed, interest rates have changed, lending programs have changed, even your financial goals may have changed.
00:08:07.000 What made sense then may not be the best option today.
00:08:10.000 Here's what I see all the time homeowners often assume their current mortgage is the best they can do, while renters assume home ownership is out of reach.
00:08:18.000 In many cases, neither is true.
00:08:20.000 That's why I recommend talking to Andrew and Todd at Union Home Mortgage.
00:08:24.000 If you already own a home, they'll provide a complimentary mortgage review to see if there are opportunities to lower your payment, eliminate mortgage insurance, consolidate debt, access equity, shorten your term, or simply determine whether staying exactly where you are is the smartest move.
00:08:38.000 If you're renting, they'll help you understand what it really takes to become a homeowner.
00:08:42.000 You may be surprised to learn that buying a home could be more affordable than you think.
00:08:46.000 They'll explain the programs available, answer your question, and guide you every step of the way.
00:08:50.000 We love these guys.
00:08:51.000 No pressure, no obligation, no sales pitch, just honest advice.
00:08:55.000 Tailored to your goals.
00:08:56.000 Visit andrewandtod.com to schedule your complimentary review or call 88881172.
00:09:04.000 88881172.
00:09:06.000 That's andrewandtod.com.
00:09:11.000 You can get to know God.
00:09:12.000 God is holy, not profane.
00:09:14.000 Also, God is moral.
00:09:15.000 God will tell you what is right and what is wrong.
00:09:18.000 God makes judgments, but also, God is not in nature.
00:09:22.000 This was a profound moral breakthrough.
00:09:26.000 Genesis, especially, because prior to the Hebrews, prior to the people of Israel, prior to the beginning of the truth developing in written form, God was supposed to be found in nature.
00:09:37.000 You worship the sun, you worship the mountain, you worship the river, that you go seek into nature to go find God.
00:09:44.000 The argument made in Genesis, the truth says, no, no, no, that God is so powerful, He spoke nature into existence, that you do not worship nature, you worship God who created nature.
00:09:56.000 That is a completely different way of viewing our existence.
00:10:02.000 Now, why does this matter?
00:10:03.000 The environmentalists that are really earth worshipers are doing the very same thing that Gnostic Hermeticists did 2,000 years ago, where they say the world is about to end, and the tree, the delta smelt, the river, the cacti, they matter more than man.
00:10:24.000 So there's a hierarchy, okay?
00:10:27.000 Nature, man, God.
00:10:29.000 We are above nature and below God.
00:10:32.000 It's very important.
00:10:34.000 The radical environmentalists do not believe that.
00:10:36.000 They believe we are the polluters of nature.
00:10:39.000 Now, one of the things that drives me nuts is when people say, Well, Charlie, it's a natural thing to do.
00:10:48.000 You can't prevent somebody's nature.
00:10:49.000 We must understand nature, but civilization, by its definition, is us trying to restrain our nature.
00:10:57.000 I'll give you a great example you must teach a child manners at dinner.
00:11:01.000 The nature is to be rude and to burp and to belch and to.
00:11:07.000 The idea of manners, where does that come from? 0.95
00:11:09.000 It's kind of a silly example, I think.
00:11:11.000 It's out of the respect for others because of human equality.
00:11:15.000 That they do not want to hear your bodily noises.
00:11:18.000 They want you to act in a certain code of conduct.
00:11:22.000 Now, but if we were to say that nature matters, we would never have rules, customs, codes, or traditions that would restrain your own pre programmed way of conduct either at a dinner table or otherwise.
00:11:35.000 Now, Now, when you say that God is above nature, this is very important.
00:11:39.000 Nature is not moral, nature is not holy, and nature is not personal.
00:11:45.000 If you go out in the woods, you will not find any three of those things.
00:11:49.000 And so, one of the fake religions, it's so attractive to young people because God did such an amazing job of creating nature.
00:11:56.000 It's the closest thing they can try to find to the divine. 0.53
00:11:59.000 But the way, the unattractive element or the pernicious element, the evil element, is that it is inherently anti human.
00:12:08.000 Because when there is a decision that needs to be made, they will say, we must reduce the earth's population, we must reduce human activity to try to save nature.
00:12:17.000 So, that's one of five.
00:12:18.000 I can keep going, Juergen, on that, but earth worship is one.
00:12:20.000 That dominates our time.
00:12:21.000 The second one that I think is probably the most dangerous and the most widespread is the religion of anti racism or the cult of diversity.
00:12:29.000 This is largely the most dangerous of all five in the immediate.
00:12:35.000 And so, how does this manifest? 0.95
00:12:37.000 This manifests in a lot of different ways hyper focused on race, black only dormitories, Grand Valley State University, for example, Columbia University, they have black only graduation ceremonies now, Juergen, where they do not allow whites to go. 0.58
00:12:52.000 To these graduation ceremonies. 0.62
00:12:53.000 And what's so perplexing about the religion of anti racism is that this is not being led by Hispanics or blacks. 0.89
00:13:03.000 That the cleric, the people, the clergy of the religion of anti racism are white liberal suburban wine moms. 0.67
00:13:13.000 And that's what's so strange about it, right? 0.67
00:13:18.000 Is that this is not being driven by your average middle class black American.
00:13:23.000 These are people that. 0.88
00:13:24.000 Reject Christianity, engage in secularism, realize they're empty, find something that looks like a religion, and their meaning then is to hate themselves, and they think they can atone for it by donating to BLM or apologizing for how they look.
00:13:42.000 That gives them almost a quasi religious experience. 0.63
00:13:45.000 If you dive into the BLM code of conduct, they basically have taken Christianity and they totally put it through a lens.
00:13:54.000 They say, okay, we're still going to meet. 0.72
00:13:56.000 We're still going to tithe.
00:13:57.000 We're still going to have offerings.
00:13:58.000 We're still going to say you have original sin.
00:14:01.000 You see, the cult of diversity and the religion of anti racism takes this idea of original sin.
00:14:05.000 They just say the original sin is not the garden, the original sin is your melanin content.
00:14:12.000 The original sin is how you look.
00:14:14.000 So they take all these elements of Christianity and they pervert it. 0.56
00:14:17.000 And here's what's so dangerous is why I think it's the most dangerous is that it's the one that people are the least willing to fight on.
00:14:24.000 If I go through the five, You'll realize that some are, wow, this is the one that paralyzes people.
00:14:30.000 And they do it through the weaponization of name calling.
00:14:33.000 And more so than any other time in American history, have we seen good people that are afraid to act because of a name that they might be called?
00:14:42.000 It is unprecedented.
00:14:44.000 We have never seen so many people that know something is evil happening around them, and the cost is being called something they wish they would not be called racist, bigot.
00:14:53.000 Let me be very clear racism and bigotry is mostly coming from the left.
00:14:58.000 However, if You are a racist or a bigot.
00:15:01.000 I hope you guys find help with that.
00:15:02.000 But you're probably not, because we have a supply and demand problem for racism and bigotry in America.
00:15:07.000 We are so unbelievably not racist when you see a hate crime hoax.
00:15:13.000 Most of the time, it's a hoax of somebody that is actually trying to create racism out of nowhere.
00:15:18.000 We are such a decent, not racist country that the incentive structure is to fake your own hate crime.
00:15:28.000 So that's the second one.
00:15:29.000 I'm sorry, Juergen, you can interrupt me at any time.
00:15:31.000 Okay, I'm loving this.
00:15:32.000 Okay.
00:15:33.000 This is like Bible College 101.
00:15:38.000 Hi, folks.
00:15:39.000 Andrew Colvett here.
00:15:40.000 I'd like to tell you about my friends over at Y Refi.
00:15:43.000 You've probably been hearing me talk about Y Refi for some time now.
00:15:46.000 We are all in with these guys.
00:15:48.000 If you or someone you know is struggling with private student loan debt, take my advice and give them a call.
00:15:55.000 Maybe you're behind on your payments.
00:15:56.000 Maybe you're even in default.
00:15:58.000 You don't have to live in this nightmare anymore.
00:16:01.000 Y Refi will provide you a custom payment based on your ability to pay.
00:16:05.000 They tailor each loan individually, they can save you thousands of dollars, and you can get your life back.
00:16:12.000 We go to campuses all over America and we see student after student who's drowning in private student loan debt.
00:16:18.000 Many of them don't even know how much they owe.
00:16:20.000 Why Refi can help.
00:16:22.000 Just go to whyrefi.com.
00:16:24.000 That's the letter Y, then refi.com.
00:16:27.000 And remember, whyrefi doesn't care what your credit score is.
00:16:30.000 Just go to whyrefi.com and tell them your friend Andrew sent you. 0.70
00:16:37.000 Well, I think it's important because pastors and Christians, you must know the religions you're competing against, right?
00:16:42.000 And so, anyway, that's the second one the cult of diversity and the religion of anti racism.
00:16:48.000 The third of which is a very broad one, but it applies directly to the trans thing.
00:16:52.000 Which is the religion of tolerance?
00:16:54.000 This is one that I see, this is probably the most widespread in weak Christian churches, right? 0.94
00:17:01.000 Where they say we must be tolerant of others.
00:17:05.000 That is not correct.
00:17:06.000 You could be compassionate and loving, you should never tolerate evil, period.
00:17:12.000 You should never tolerate evil.
00:17:18.000 In fact, Psalm 97:10, if you love God, you must hate evil.
00:17:25.000 That hating evil actually shows how much you love the divine.
00:17:29.000 The religion of tolerance gives us insane, pathological ideas that are institutionalized into our culture, institutionalized into our system and our code of conduct, where good people know it's wrong and they do nothing because they say they must be tolerant.
00:17:45.000 For example, Thomas, the swimmer that competes and wins a NCAA championship as a man against other women, and we say we must do nothing. 0.57
00:17:55.000 Where track championship after track championship are being won by biological men competing against women. 0.87
00:18:02.000 And so, and not just competing, but winning. 0.90
00:18:04.000 And they're bullying them and they're antagonistic and they're narcissistic and they're cheaters and all those things. 0.53
00:18:10.000 And so, some criticism I receive is well, Charlie, aren't you a Christian? 0.59
00:18:14.000 Don't you love that person?
00:18:16.000 Of course we do.
00:18:17.000 That person's made in the image of God.
00:18:19.000 We should have compassion for that person.
00:18:22.000 However, the question is.
00:18:25.000 Is then what do you do with somebody that is suffering with a mental delusion?
00:18:30.000 If somebody shows up at the airplane ticket counter and says, I have an imaginary friend, I demand two seats on a plane, you would say, Well, I need to charge you for two seats.
00:18:41.000 No, no, no, it's my truth.
00:18:42.000 It's actually, I'm a dual personality. 1.00
00:18:44.000 Say you're insane. 0.99
00:18:45.000 If someone is anorexic and says, I need liposuction, you'd say, No, no, you're suffering under a mental delusion. 0.99
00:18:52.000 If somebody says, I'm offended every single time I see other people eat in public, do we stop eating in public?
00:18:58.000 Do we now reaccommodate society for other people's mental struggles or issues?
00:19:02.000 What we are living through is that we now have to change our customs, our code of beliefs, our behaviors for people that are personally struggling with something.
00:19:14.000 That is evil, everybody.
00:19:16.000 That is wrong.
00:19:17.000 It is the tyranny of the minority.
00:19:19.000 And we're seeing this all over.
00:19:21.000 And so the religion of tolerance tells us that we worship this idea of tolerance because it's really, I think I'm a good person religion, when in reality, you are weak.
00:19:33.000 You're weak when you see the strong that are willing to crush the weak.
00:19:38.000 And that is the question of a society.
00:19:40.000 Are the strong willing to use their power to protect those that don't have as much strength?
00:19:43.000 Only Christianity mandates the strong to use their power to protect those that are not as powerful.
00:19:50.000 That is a uniquely Christian principle. 0.95
00:19:52.000 Going back to what I talked about, nature though, if you look at nature, what does nature tell you? 0.88
00:19:57.000 That the strong get stronger and the weak die.
00:20:00.000 The religion of Christianity says, no, no, no, no.
00:20:02.000 We stand up for the least of these in our society, we stand up for those that can't defend themselves.
00:20:09.000 Okay.
00:20:10.000 Number four is the worship of power.
00:20:14.000 This one is very dangerous.
00:20:16.000 There's several examples of this, mostly in our political elite.
00:20:20.000 These are people that have made it their life's purpose to dominate others.
00:20:25.000 I will get to Fauci in the final one because he could qualify there, but he really is the archbishop of a different religion.
00:20:33.000 I'm going to instead, I've talked about this religion before at this church, but I'll expand on it.
00:20:37.000 I'm actually going to go more micro than macro because I could talk about James Comey and I could talk about Andy McCabe and I could talk about Mayorkas and people that worship power, but a different Subcategory of the population actually worship power, and all of us have experienced it. 0.52
00:20:52.000 They find their purpose, their meaning, their drive in being able to terrorize others.
00:20:57.000 We call them micro tyrants. 1.00
00:20:59.000 So, the more stupid rules you have, the more stupid people you need to enforce the stupid rules because good people refuse to enforce stupid rules. 1.00
00:21:08.000 So, during the lockdowns, during the COVIDian tyranny, when we had all these rules, all of a sudden, an emergence of a new subgroup, an undercurrent we never knew existed, of people that find their religious significance in enforcing. 1.00
00:21:21.000 Yes, and enforcing whether or not you're wearing your mask correctly, right?
00:21:27.000 And these are people, Starbucks baristas, who were never ran for elected office.
00:21:31.000 We've never knew them before.
00:21:33.000 They've never had to really be in a position of power for any other reason except they happen to work in Starbucks. 0.99
00:21:39.000 But because a silly, stupid rule all of a sudden came out of nowhere, they look around and they're like, well, someone has to enforce it. 0.99
00:21:46.000 We're going to have this 19 year old North African lesbian studies major from San Diego State University have all this power. 1.00
00:21:53.000 To police my breathing when I'm trying to get a cold brew. 0.74
00:21:57.000 And you go and you try to pick up the cold brew, and your mask is a little bit down, and that person, she, whatever pronouns that person uses, ridiculous what's happening in our society, this person gets off and is excited about enforcing the dumb rule because they become unbelievably important for the first time in their life.
00:22:26.000 That's a mic drop moment.
00:22:33.000 When, if Christianity was in that person's life, that rule would not be as important because they would look at themselves as a son or a daughter of the divine. 0.73
00:22:43.000 That rule would then be looked at completely differently, not as a way to exert power or authority, but instead as, well, that's probably a cruel way to treat another person made in the image of God, right? 0.50
00:22:53.000 So the religion of power is very attractive as Christianity is not as popular.
00:23:00.000 If you could go back in time and buy oil before the world relied on it, would you?
00:23:05.000 Of course you would.
00:23:06.000 Anybody would.
00:23:07.000 So why aren't you buying silver right now?
00:23:09.000 The people who recognized oil early didn't just make money, they got ahead of one of the biggest economic shifts in history.
00:23:16.000 And today, a similar opportunity is unfolding with silver.
00:23:19.000 Silver is more than a precious metal, it's a critical resource used in solar panels, electric vehicles, defense systems, AI infrastructure, and the massive data centers powering that digital world.
00:23:29.000 While demand keeps growing, it's still affordable enough that the average American can start accumulating it.
00:23:35.000 Right now, that's why investors are turning to silver to protect against inflation and to own one of the world's most important strategic resources.
00:23:43.000 Don't be the person who looks back in ten years and says, I saw it coming, I just didn't act.
00:23:47.000 Visit noblegoldinvestments.comslash Kirk and learn how easy it is to own physical silver.
00:23:53.000 That's noblegoldinvestments.comslash Kirk.
00:23:56.000 Own the metal the future depends on.
00:24:01.000 Okay, the fifth religion is really the religion of scientism.
00:24:05.000 And that's where Fauci could be the archbishop.
00:24:08.000 He's in both the religion of power and the religion of scientism.
00:24:11.000 Very important.
00:24:13.000 Never was it about trusting the science.
00:24:15.000 It was about trusting the scientists that they liked over the last couple of years.
00:24:20.000 Those are two completely different things.
00:24:23.000 And the religion of scientism has been around for over 100 years.
00:24:28.000 The entire fourth branch of government really came to be with this idea of the council of experts that there are people that know better than you, that committees that you'll never come in touch with can meet privately and they're going to make decisions and they'll be able to get our society closer towards a utopia.
00:24:47.000 This came from Woodrow Wilson.
00:24:48.000 There's a long tradition here.
00:24:50.000 I don't need to bore you with all the details.
00:24:52.000 But we've seen how dangerous that religion of scientism is able to be enforced.
00:24:57.000 But what was even more disappointing is not just the people that enforce it Francis Collins, Walensky, Pfizer, AstraZeneca, Moderna, Johnson Johnson. 0.83
00:25:07.000 Is that the religion of scientism can actually be more broadly into really kind of the idolatry of experts, is another way to put it, which is the experts have told us to do this, even though you know the rule is so silly. 0.99
00:25:23.000 Or you know, the rule again is stupid. 0.98
00:25:25.000 And again, so we live through this. 0.99
00:25:27.000 And again, scientists, well, accurate historians, you're going to go back in time, the ones that have any sort of courage to find the truth, and they're going to be perplexed.
00:25:36.000 They're going to say, wait a second, help me understand this.
00:25:38.000 So you lock down all of society, and then you allow people to go on airplanes, and you hyper enforce the mask policy, except, of course, when they're eating or drinking, right?
00:25:50.000 Because when they're eating or drinking, the virus is just in complete suspense in the air.
00:25:54.000 It stops, right?
00:25:56.000 And that when you're not eating or drinking, you have to wear the mask properly.
00:26:01.000 And you could do that at 35,000 feet with 350 people packed like sardines, but the restaurants are closed in Newark, New Jersey, and the restaurants are closed in Los Angeles, the two cities you're flying from, but shut up and trust the science.
00:26:14.000 And you really have to wonder is it actually about science?
00:26:18.000 And this is what's so important.
00:26:19.000 We as Christians must understand the heritage of modern science came from Bible believing Christians, but it changed.
00:26:26.000 I'm going to tell you how it changed. 0.90
00:26:28.000 Sir Francis Bacon invented the scientific method.
00:26:31.000 Sir Isaac Newton wrote more about biblical prophecy and Isaiah than he did even about physics.
00:26:36.000 So, this idea of the inquiry into the natural world is a very uniquely Christian idea because if you believe that there is a logos, a cosmological harmony to our existence, then therefore the universe is worth exploring and understanding.
00:26:49.000 Those words are very important.
00:26:50.000 Remember them exploring and understanding.
00:26:53.000 Something changed in the 1800s with the Hegelians and the German historicists where they decided to go a completely different direction.
00:27:00.000 They said, we do not desire to know about nature.
00:27:02.000 We desire to remake and dominate nature.
00:27:05.000 That is completely different, right?
00:27:07.000 That it's not as if we want to try to understand why it is that, you know, where does wind come from or, you know, why are temperatures increase or decrease or, you know, germ theory or how can we possibly create, you know, better resistance to viruses or antibiotics.
00:27:23.000 No, no, no.
00:27:24.000 Instead, they said, we want to remake the creation in our image.
00:27:30.000 And the religion of scientism is exactly why there is a demonic, pathological fixation on both abortion and the trans issue.
00:27:41.000 Both of them are the will of man exerting themselves over the creation of God. 0.77
00:27:51.000 Both of them.
00:27:52.000 That I get to decide who gets to live and die. 0.88
00:27:55.000 That I get to decide whether or not you're a man or woman.
00:27:59.000 And so the religion of scientism is not about understanding the natural world or saving lives.
00:28:05.000 The religion of scientism is that the will of I is going to dominate what the divine created.
00:28:13.000 And this is exactly what played out the last couple years.
00:28:17.000 That's the mRNA gene altering shot.
00:28:19.000 That is why they're trying to put hormone blockers in kids' hands, is because they're trying to make it possible in the scientific arena that you can change what was naturally put into place.
00:28:33.000 And so science made a complete diversion.
00:28:34.000 So I am a big fan of science if it's done under the correct presupposition, which is do we believe that there's a logos and we desire to know and understand and understand?
00:28:45.000 Awe and wonder of the beauty and the intricacy of what God created, or are you going into science instead with a spirit to alter with a spirit with a spirit of contempt?
00:29:02.000 This, the religion of scientism is filled with a dark spirit of I can do it better.
00:29:10.000 Incredible, incredible, incredible, Charlie.
00:29:14.000 Uh, sorry, I took so.
00:29:15.000 No, are you kidding?
00:29:16.000 I was that was that was just exceptional.
00:29:18.000 So.
00:29:20.000 All five of those religions actually have their genesis, their seed in Genesis 1 11. 0.84
00:29:29.000 You know, Nimrod was the one who wanted to dominate.
00:29:34.000 He set up an empirical kind of society where men dominated men.
00:29:38.000 God never created man to be dominated by other men.
00:29:43.000 As someone who obviously is very, very learned and studies, Tell us Genesis 1 to 11.
00:29:51.000 I know you got some wonderful thoughts on that.
00:29:53.000 Sure.
00:29:55.000 We have a couple of minutes before we go to QA, but I think it's the most important part of the Bible.
00:29:59.000 I also think it should instruct every Christian politically.
00:30:04.000 Genesis 1 through 11 is the whole ballgame.
00:30:05.000 So let me just kind of isolate a couple verses, okay?
00:30:08.000 Genesis 1 1.
00:30:09.000 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.
00:30:12.000 That verse means that your creation matters, there's a purpose to your existence, we're not here by accident, and that there is a God and you are not Him.
00:30:21.000 That's a big deal.
00:30:26.000 Genesis 1 26.
00:30:27.000 That alone would help so many people.
00:30:29.000 That alone. 1.00
00:30:30.000 Genesis 1 1 should crush those five fake religions. 0.99
00:30:35.000 Genesis 1 1 is the shield and the sword against those five pagan river civilization religions. 0.98
00:30:44.000 More Americans are starting to ask an important question Why is it so difficult to get access to medications you may already know you need?
00:30:52.000 If your health is your responsibility, why are outside systems deciding what you can have and when you're allowed to get it?
00:30:58.000 That's one reason I recommend All Family Pharmacy.

00:31:42.000 Now, understand that those five religions are not new. 0.89
00:31:46.000 They're just repackaged manifestations of an unclean spirit, a Luciferian desire, of all sorts of different types of pagan river civilizations in Egypt and Mesopotamia that the Hebrews were fighting and challenging against. 0.59
00:32:01.000 You have to understand this idea of monotheism, one God. 0.92
00:32:06.000 Is so unbelievably rare in the history of fake religions.
00:32:10.000 I mean, there's all these fake religions, and all of a sudden monotheism comes along and God spoke it into existence.
00:32:15.000 What do you mean God's above nature?
00:32:18.000 And not only that, but God chooses people not based on characteristics that we think matter, such as beauty or how they look, but instead on moral character.
00:32:29.000 God chose Noah because he was a righteous man in his generation.
00:32:33.000 The pagan river civilization of Mesopotamia said the gods would choose based on the best looking.
00:32:41.000 Now, why is polytheism so dangerous?
00:32:44.000 And these are all polytheistic in nature.
00:32:47.000 Poly meaning many.
00:32:49.000 Many gods, many moralities.
00:32:52.000 If you have one God, there is one morality.
00:32:55.000 You want to prevent man from doing what is right in his own eyes?
00:32:58.000 You must restore the promise of monotheism, which is Christianity.
00:33:03.000 So Genesis 1 through 11 creates that entire moral foundation.
00:33:09.000 Genesis 1 26, 1 27.
00:33:10.000 What is man?
00:33:11.000 If I could set every pastor down, I think I could persuade many of them.
00:33:15.000 And they say, Well, I don't do politics.
00:33:17.000 And I'll say, Well, why are you trying to not be involved in something that human beings are engaged in?
00:33:22.000 And you have to ask them anyone that has a pastor like this, ask them to define politics.
00:33:26.000 They cannot define politics.
00:33:28.000 Politics is so simple to define.
00:33:30.000 Politics is deciding who gets power and when they get power and how they're able to use the power.
00:33:38.000 That's it.
00:33:39.000 Politics is a question of power in human beings, okay?
00:33:42.000 You might say, Well, I don't care about that question.
00:33:44.000 That is such a silly thing to say because the Bible has a lot to say about who gets power and how they get power and when they get power.
00:33:53.000 In fact, the Bible says that power should be separate, that there should be checks and balances, that the people need to have consent.
00:34:00.000 If only a country adopted those ideas and put them into their constitution, which, by the way, is why the constitution is the greatest political document ever written.
00:34:10.000 Ever written.
00:34:12.000 Ever written.
00:34:16.000 And so.
00:34:17.000 Let me just kind of dwell on that a little bit more is that what is a human being?
00:34:22.000 You can choose to answer this question, obviously, with the secular humanist way or the Christian way.
00:34:27.000 The secular humanist says a human being is a mistake, a combination of cells, Darwinian evolution, roll of the dice, we happen to exist.
00:34:34.000 We believe that human beings have intentionality, purpose.
00:34:39.000 You're made in the image of the divine, you have a soul.
00:34:42.000 Therefore, that necessitates human equality, human rights, and that government, politics should not be able to crush that human being.
00:34:50.000 That human being is a reflection of the divine order as we know.
00:34:54.000 That's a huge concept you could spend the rest of your life just mulling over and praying over.
00:35:00.000 So, the question of what is a human being is the most important question because the secular humanists, all five of those fake religions, would not answer that a human being is made in the image of God.
00:35:12.000 They would say that a human being is a mistake or we don't know or that it's a mystery.
00:35:16.000 So, it is right there.
00:35:17.000 So, Genesis 1 1 and then Genesis 1 26 and 1 27.
00:35:21.000 Then the next question should be okay, we know what a human being is.
00:35:24.000 Are human beings naturally good?
00:35:27.000 This is an unbelievably important question.
00:35:30.000 If human beings are naturally good, then we must be able to explain all the evil in the world.
00:35:36.000 And by the way, the secular humanists, the scientists, the earth worshipers, the cult of diversity, the anti racism folks, they explain evil not in the heart of man, not with original sin in the fall.
00:35:48.000 They say that evil comes from the systems and the structures that we have inherited.
00:35:54.000 Therefore, we get rid of evil by getting rid of Western society and getting rid of the patriarchy and getting rid of Christianity.
00:36:01.000 If you can't answer where evil comes from, Then you're going to make really bad political decisions afterwards because they say we must tear all this stuff down and then we'll be able to usher in some form of goodness.
00:36:13.000 Genesis says clearly the heart of man is flawed from birth, that we know that we are dealing with a broken raw material.
00:36:22.000 Therefore, we should have awe and wonder anytime we do anything right or good.
00:36:28.000 In fact, we should say, wow, the fact that we aren't tearing each other apart every single day is a massive moral advancement.
00:36:35.000 Let's figure out how we did that. 0.83
00:36:38.000 Christianity.
00:36:40.000 And then finally, and Juergen, you alluded to this, my favorite political verse, my political chapter that I wish every pastor taught correctly is Genesis 11.
00:36:51.000 Genesis 11 is exactly what happens when you try to build a metropolitan centralized government to honor yourself and to not honor God.
00:37:01.000 As it said very clearly there in the people of Babel, which means God confuses, by the way.
00:37:08.000 They said that we are going to make a name for ourselves, that it will come and touch the heavens.
00:37:13.000 Both the American founding fathers and our Lord do not like major cities that want to make themselves gods.
00:37:21.000 The American founding fathers believed in decentralized power.
00:37:25.000 And so, if a pastor says, I don't believe in politics, then why on earth would God put Genesis 11 right there?
00:37:31.000 That's the final thing you read before God calls Abram, the last thing you read before that we know is recorded history.
00:37:38.000 Because Genesis 1 through 11, you could debate of the exact time.
00:37:42.000 We know exactly down to like the 100th, like the 30th year when Abram was called.
00:37:47.000 And so history starts in Genesis 12 as we know it, Genesis 11.
00:37:50.000 Because that final reminder that God is giving you, the interlude, the bridge, is hey, when you build a political system, when you build a city, you better believe that that power is not centralized.
00:38:00.000 You better believe the heart of man will try to do something to terrorize others.
00:38:04.000 So how does God handle it?
00:38:05.000 He scatters and confuses them.
00:38:08.000 He offers judgment as a way to say to us hey, you try to build something in your own.
00:38:13.000 Your own way, World Economic Forum, globalism, great reset, that will be scattered and that will be dishonored.
00:38:21.000 That is a political teaching.
00:38:24.000 Come on, mic drop, mic drop, mic drop, mic drop.

00:39:31.000 I've got one more question before the question and answers, but we're going to line up on the sides of the stage and we're going to have mics.
00:39:36.000 How are we going to do that?
00:39:37.000 Is Samuel Duth and who else?
00:39:39.000 And Mike Finn, the two most handsome men in the church.
00:39:45.000 Come on, it's like El Guapo, El Guapo.
00:39:50.000 On either side.
00:39:51.000 Just one question on that.
00:39:55.000 Just like in the days of Elijah, there were 450 men.
00:39:59.000 Prophets of Baal, 400 prophets of Asherah.
00:40:02.000 The Bible says that they were fed by Jezebel at Jezebel's table, meaning that these were government PBS, these were government funded, government sustained, and they were voices.
00:40:15.000 There was one voice crying out for God, 850 voices giving everything else.
00:40:22.000 There was an incredible pessimism.
00:40:23.000 In fact, when Elijah comes to the people, he says, How long are you going to falter between two opinions?
00:40:28.000 They answered him not a word.
00:40:29.000 So the people were really so discouraged they lost their voice.
00:40:33.000 I know that you've been talking a little bit lately about a rise in almost like a pessimistic nihilism, hopelessness, the world's gone to the evil are in control, the darkness.
00:40:44.000 Give us one thought.
00:40:45.000 Why should we not quit?
00:40:46.000 Why should we not give up?
00:40:47.000 Yes, of course.
00:40:48.000 So, two thoughts on this, and then I do want to get to some questions.
00:40:51.000 The first category are really well meaning Christians that write me emails.
00:40:56.000 I have a human laboratory because I host a radio program every day.
00:40:59.000 And thank you, by the way, those of you that watch on Real America's Voice and podcasting.
00:41:02.000 Thank you.
00:41:03.000 You guys make our show possible, and we work very hard, and you bless me.
00:41:07.000 With your emails, your thoughts, and your prayers.
00:41:09.000 But there are a fair amount of emails I get sometimes, hundreds a week.
00:41:12.000 Charlie, Jesus is coming next Thursday.
00:41:15.000 Stop all this melodrama.
00:41:17.000 He's coming soon.
00:41:19.000 We don't need to act anymore.
00:41:20.000 And then I always respond Are you sure it's Thursday?
00:41:23.000 I always respond.
00:41:25.000 And they don't like it.
00:41:26.000 It's not always a fun exchange.
00:41:28.000 But I read every email.
00:41:29.000 When I say I read every email at freedom at charliekirk.com, I mean it.
00:41:32.000 I don't respond every email, but I read everyone.
00:41:34.000 And I learn so much about humanity.
00:41:39.000 You read 10,000.
00:41:40.000 15,000 emails a week, you learn more than any pollster could ever tell you.
00:41:44.000 So I have a pretty good heart, kind of understanding of the heartbeat there.
00:41:47.000 So it is a bad theological reading, a poor theological reading is a better way to say it.
00:41:54.000 Poor theological reading to say that I am not going to act, I am not going to be bold because I believe that we are in the end times.
00:42:02.000 You might be right, but the day and the hour is unknown.
00:42:05.000 I do believe that Jesus is coming back.
00:42:08.000 But if you believe, this is what's interesting.
00:42:10.000 If you believe that Jesus is coming back soon, You should have the opposite view.
00:42:14.000 You should be leaning in.
00:42:15.000 You should be taking terrain.
00:42:16.000 You should be pouring in.
00:42:18.000 You should be acting more courageously and boldly, not retreating and surrendering.
00:42:25.000 Second, the second that I need to talk to is an unfortunate thing that really manifests in the last two weeks where there is just kind of this Charlie, I don't think that my grandkids should have kids.
00:42:36.000 I would not bring kids into this world.
00:42:39.000 I find this to be preposterous.
00:42:41.000 The great Martin Luther said, even if the world was ending today, I would plant an apple tree.
00:42:47.000 What a beautiful, beautiful quote.
00:42:50.000 And there's a verse from Ecclesiastes that says something very similar, which is you don't just look at the winds of whether or not you sow.
00:42:58.000 Too many people, I think, check the weather in the stock market before they say, I am going to act.
00:43:03.000 My main message to every church, every campus, every believer is that you could be disgusted, depressed, disgruntled at the macro, but you have zero excuse to not act boldly and courageously in the micro.
00:43:18.000 You must continue to pour in to build big families, to build strong churches, to expand businesses.
00:43:27.000 The enemy would love nothing more than to create a sense of paralysis amongst believers, the last best hope for liberty, because things look really bleak on the outside.
00:43:38.000 Of course, there's a lot of negativity.
00:43:40.000 We could talk about it.
00:43:42.000 That's actually irrelevant to what I try to end every speech with, which is what are you going to do?
00:43:49.000 And if you ask the question, well, Charlie, what else am I to do?
00:43:52.000 We'll talk about at the end of what you can do.
00:43:54.000 It's a very simple question, which is if you have not lost anything significant in the last couple of years, you're a spectator and you're not in the arena.
00:44:02.000 It's that simple.
00:44:04.000 You can judge, ouch, you can judge a participant versus a spectator, verse on how much they have lost, not how much they have gained.
00:44:13.000 Now, we've gained a lot at Turning Point USA.
00:44:16.000 You might say, well, Charlie, what have you lost?
00:44:18.000 Friendships, relationships with family members, time.
00:44:22.000 We've lost a lot.
00:44:23.000 We have the battle wounds and the scars to show it.
00:44:25.000 Praise God, we fought through it and we're leaning in and doing more.
00:44:28.000 But I find the people that are doing the most are saying, Charlie, I'm glad I lost those things because actually God has now freed me up to fight even harder to be able to win.
00:44:39.000 Thank you, Charlie.
00:44:39.000 Come on, put your hands together.
00:44:41.000 Thank you, Charlie.
00:44:42.000 Thank you, What a voice.
00:44:48.000 Great wisdom, great courage, great clarity.
00:44:53.000 I honestly believe that Charlie is a prophetic voice.
00:44:57.000 To our time.
