The Charlie Kirk Show - Speeches From the Archive: Charlie’s 2023 Speech at Seattle Revival Center

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 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.

00:00:56.000 The Charlie Kirk Show is proudly sponsored by Preserve Gold, the leading gold and silver experts and the only precious metals company I recommend to my family, friends, and viewers.

00:01:12.000 Welcome to Seattle.

00:01:13.000 Thank you.

00:01:14.000 Yeah, I see some repeat customers from the first service.

00:01:17.000 How many of you were actually in the first service?

00:01:19.000 Keep your hands up.

00:01:20.000 Ushers, if you could walk them out.

00:01:24.000 That's a good sign, though.

00:01:25.000 That means we didn't see it.

00:01:25.000 I'm glad they stayed.

00:01:26.000 Yeah, that's really sweet.

00:01:28.000 Dude, it's such an honor to have you here on a Sunday morning.

00:01:31.000 Thank you.

00:01:31.000 Yeah, at our two Sunday morning services.

00:01:33.000 And we're doing something that you shouldn't be doing, especially in Seattle of all places, right?

00:01:38.000 Talking politics and government at church.

00:01:43.000 And I'm wondering, aren't you worried about being accused?

00:01:50.000 Okay, this is like the worst kind of accusation, right?

00:01:52.000 Like, and this is probably the nightmare of anybody here, okay?

00:01:56.000 But aren't you accused of being a Christian nationalist?

00:02:02.000 Yeah, the worst thing, right?

00:02:03.000 I mean, first of all, great to be here.

00:02:05.000 I love Washington.

00:02:07.000 I love this area.

00:02:08.000 I hate what they're doing to it.

00:02:09.000 That's what I always say.

00:02:10.000 It's some of the most beautiful country the Lord has given us.

00:02:15.000 Yeah, am I afraid of being accused?

00:02:18.000 First of all, this whole idea of like Christian nationalism is such a joke because it's two separate words that I do identify with, but they're trying to use it as a slur.

00:02:25.000 What they're trying to say is you Christians shouldn't care about your government, which is totally against Jeremiah 29, 7.

00:02:30.000 Come on.

00:02:31.000 Where Jeremiah 29, 7 says, demand the welfare of the nation that you are in because your welfare is tied to your nation's welfare.

00:02:38.000 And so look, we talked about this in the first service, and I'll just repeat it for the first timers here.

00:02:44.000 Look, the Bible should instruct every single part of your life, and it does for me.

00:02:47.000 And for people that they say, well, I don't do politics.

00:02:50.000 We don't do that at church.

00:02:51.000 Look, it's not the most important thing.

00:02:53.000 The most important thing is Jesus.

00:02:54.000 The most important thing is Jesus.

00:02:55.000 I'll say that again and again and again.

00:02:57.000 And however, we have to ask, are there other things that Jesus wants us to be engaged or involved in?

00:03:02.000 Of course, when Jesus said at the mouth of the Jordan River, he said, on this rock build my church.

00:03:08.000 But the word is actually ecclesia.

00:03:10.000 It's a Greek word that means community gathering point.

00:03:13.000 It means, really, it was the modern, it was the ancient equivalent of getting involved in politics, right?

00:03:20.000 The business of the city.

00:03:22.000 And I look for some of you who say, well, Charlie, I just come to church, you know, to feel good and to get charged up.

00:03:26.000 Well, that's not what church should be.

00:03:28.000 Church should challenge you in every facet of your life to become better in your marriage, to become a better son, to become better at saving money, to become better at running your business, better at treating people that are not like you.

00:03:41.000 And yes, understanding the proper form of government.

00:03:45.000 And you must first ask some questions.

00:03:47.000 Is there a God?

00:03:48.000 Well, better sheep.

00:03:49.000 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.

00:03:52.000 That means that there is a God and you are not him.

00:03:56.000 That's a big deal.

00:03:57.000 What is a human being?

00:03:57.000 That's true.

00:03:59.000 A human being is created in the image of God with a soul, that we are here for a purpose.

00:04:05.000 So once you answer these questions, then you can design government.

00:04:08.000 And you have to ask yourself the question, if you care about the downtrodden, if you care about people that are not able to fight for themselves, the last 100 years, what has been the number one murderer of humanity? 0.80

00:04:19.000 It's been government.

00:04:21.000 It's been tyrannical, authoritarian government.

00:04:24.000 And for the church to now be disconnected, be like, I don't care about government.

00:04:27.000 I don't care about our leaders.

00:04:28.000 This is a new modern twist on Christianity that is not biblical. 0.50

00:04:34.000 So everything we're going to be talking about is biblical in nature because God wants you to be free.

00:04:39.000 It's his heart for his people to be free.

00:04:41.000 That is the story of the Exodus.

00:04:42.000 That is what Christ comes.

00:04:44.000 As it says very clearly, the Spirit of the Lord is liberty, free from bondage.

00:04:49.000 And so my calling in this is to go to churches, and we'll explore this together, and to try to warn the American church that if the church does not speak clearly and truthfully in such a time as this, then this Marxist, godless movement is going to take over our entire country.

00:05:07.000 In fact, it already is.

00:05:08.000 The American church founded America, and America will survive or die based on whether or not the American church stands up and proclaims the truth.

00:05:16.000 Wow.

00:05:23.000 So God's been speaking to you a lot about Exodus recently and some very interesting prophetic parallelism as far as what's happening.

00:05:31.000 I wanted to ask you, like, I think a lot of us, because we are the church, right, versus going to a building and calling that church.

00:05:39.000 Right?

00:05:39.000 So I think that a lot of us, we the church, okay, might wrestle a little bit with what does it look like to be in the culture?

00:05:49.000 Like, what does it look like to have a vibrant church that's bringing reform and bringing kingdom within the culture, okay?

00:05:56.000 And as we've wrestled with that tremendously, especially in our country.

00:06:02.000 But also, how does that fit with some of the things that God is showing you out of the book of Exodus and the role of the righteous?

00:06:10.000 Yeah, I mean, we were just talking, my good friend up here, about the first five books of the Bible, which unfortunately too many Christians don't study.

00:06:17.000 Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, numbers should be called in the wilderness, which is actually what it's called.

00:06:23.000 I don't know about you, but when I was young, I never read Numbers because I thought it was a math book.

00:06:27.000 And the actual title is In the Wilderness.

00:06:31.000 That's way cooler.

00:06:32.000 By the way, it's one of the most amazing books of the Bible.

00:06:34.000 You have talking donkeys, spies, giants, Hebrews complaining, but that's basically every book, so that's not unique to.

00:06:43.000 But it's an amazing book.

00:06:45.000 And you have spies, right?

00:06:46.000 You have this incredible book, and you have numbers.

00:06:49.000 Can you think of a worse title of one of the most exciting book?

00:06:52.000 Numbers.

00:06:53.000 The actual Hebrew is in the wilderness. 1.00

00:06:55.000 That's a separate issue.

00:06:56.000 But I've really been continually drawn to Exodus.

00:06:59.000 And Exodus comes from two Greek words, exhodos, the way out.

00:07:04.000 And in some ways, I think we need deliverance, the way that God delivered his chosen people out of the slavery and out of the authoritarianism of Pharaoh.

00:07:15.000 There's a couple verses I want to highlight to you in Exodus.

00:07:17.000 One in particular, which I think is the turning point, if you will, of the entire Torah of the Old Testament, which you remember the story of Joseph.

00:07:26.000 Joseph goes to Egypt.

00:07:28.000 He does not interpret the dreams.

00:07:30.000 God interprets the dreams.

00:07:31.000 He merely communicates it.

00:07:33.000 And he really saves Egypt from famine, from starvation.

00:07:35.000 It's this beautiful story, and that's how the book of Genesis ends.

00:07:38.000 And the book of Exodus begins, and it's this unbelievable, like first couple verses is, and then rose a king of Egypt who did not know Joseph.

00:07:47.000 Wow.

00:07:47.000 And everything changes.

00:07:49.000 And you could apply that today, because the root of that is ingratitude and a loss of memory of the sacrifices of generations before you.

00:07:58.000 And boy, does that not accurately describe the education system, our political system.

00:08:04.000 We're tearing down our statues.

00:08:06.000 We're rewriting our history.

00:08:08.000 Then rose a generation who did not know George Washington.

00:08:11.000 Then rose a generation who did not know Abraham Lincoln.

00:08:14.000 So that really speaks to me there.

00:08:16.000 And the story and the struggle of Exodus, obviously, Moses gets called out of a rather comfortable life.

00:08:22.000 And he actually likes his father-in-law, which for some of you I'm told that's actually, I have a great relationship with my in-laws, but him and Jethro are getting along great.

00:08:31.000 And then he comes along this bush and it changes his life.

00:08:34.000 It's like that bush is burning, but it's not consuming, and brings him on an adventure.

00:08:39.000 And it's actually really interesting because in Numbers and in Deuteronomy, he kind of almost laments this journey in some way.

00:08:45.000 Like, God, why did you put me with these people?

00:08:47.000 They won't stop complaining.

00:08:49.000 And it doesn't, you know, doesn't really, God says, yeah, tough luck, basically.

00:08:54.000 But Moses is such an, I think, Moses is one of the most interesting characters in the entire Bible, really being a messenger for God's purpose and God's will.

00:09:04.000 But the struggle is against tyranny.

00:09:06.000 But let me just fast forward really quick, right?

00:09:07.000 Because we know what happens.

00:09:08.000 God delivers them, plagues, parting of the sea, all that good stuff.

00:09:12.000 But what I find to be so fascinating and so applicable to our time is what happens when the Jewish people get freedom.

00:09:18.000 And this happens repeatedly.

00:09:19.000 It happens in Exodus and it happens in Numbers, specifically in Numbers 11, okay?

00:09:24.000 So they're given this freedom and they saw miracle after miracle and they needed and wanted for nothing.

00:09:32.000 Quail blunt, blown off course, manna from heaven.

00:09:36.000 And I quote, they start complaining and say, Who's this Moses guy?

00:09:41.000 Bring us back to Egypt where we had leeks, melons, and cucumbers.

00:09:46.000 We want to go back to Egypt because at least we were able to eat meat.

00:09:51.000 They go as far to say as saying, I wish we would have died in Egypt because they said, we didn't, everything was free.

00:09:58.000 They say that in Numbers 11.

00:10:00.000 We didn't have to pay for anything.

00:10:02.000 They were slaves.

00:10:04.000 Which I think is, hold on a second.

00:10:06.000 This is one of the most amazing parts of the Bible.

00:10:08.000 Here are people that are given deliverance by God.

00:10:10.000 They saw the most amazing miracles.

00:10:11.000 They're in a state of freedom and they prefer comfort.

00:10:15.000 Because in the wilderness is tough.

00:10:19.000 In the wilderness challenges you.

00:10:22.000 When you were in Egypt, yeah, you had to work seven days.

00:10:24.000 There was no Shabbat.

00:10:26.000 You worked every single day.

00:10:28.000 And it was tough.

00:10:28.000 And some people died.

00:10:30.000 But they almost got into this place where they didn't have to think for themselves.

00:10:33.000 One of the most amazing people I've ever had on my podcast is Yanmi Park.

00:10:38.000 I don't know if you're familiar with her.

00:10:40.000 If not, you should be familiar.

00:10:42.000 She's a North Korean defector dissident who escaped.

00:10:45.000 And in my conversation with her, I asked her, I said, Tell me about what it was like coming from a totalitarian country, North Korea, to then a free society of South Korea and then Japan, eventually America.

00:10:56.000 She said, Charlie, the hardest thing is that I would have to take naps for the first couple of weeks because I had to think.

00:11:03.000 And I never had to do that for the first 17 years of my life in North Korea.

00:11:07.000 And she said, that was really exhausting.

00:11:09.000 And she said, I almost wanted to be back in the place where everything was told, and I did it.

00:11:14.000 And here's this picture where God delivers his chosen people and they say, I don't want liberty.

00:11:22.000 This is the whole ballgame right now in America.

00:11:25.000 Do people actually want to be free?

00:11:27.000 They want to be free if we teach freedom as a desirable value.

00:11:31.000 But we must teach that freedom cannot exist without responsibility.

00:11:35.000 It's impossible.

00:11:36.000 So we're at this place in America right now where half of America wants to go back to Egypt.

00:11:41.000 Wow.

00:11:42.000 And half America wants to remain free.

00:11:45.000 Where are we divided?

00:11:46.000 That's the true division.

00:11:48.000 Is half the country is saying, take us back to slavery.

00:11:51.000 Because at least we eat meat.

00:11:53.000 At least we get weed.

00:11:54.000 At least we get whatever.

00:11:56.000 Where the other half is like, no, no, no, we want to fulfill.

00:11:59.000 We want to have the more challenging but deeper life.

00:12:02.000 So I think it speaks very clearly in the time we're living today.

00:12:05.000 Wow, wow, wow.

00:12:06.000 Come on.

00:12:11.000 We're honored to be partnering with Alan Jackson Ministries.

00:12:14.000 And today, I want to point you to their podcast.

00:12:16.000 It's called Culture in Christianity: the Allen Jackson Podcast.

00:12:20.000 What makes it unique is Pastor Allen's biblical perspective.

00:12:24.000 He takes the truth from the Bible and applies it to issues we're facing today: gender confusion, abortion, immigration, Doge, Trump in the White House, issues in the church.

00:12:32.000 He doesn't just discuss the problems.

00:12:34.000 In every episode, he gives practical things we can do to make a difference.

00:12:38.000 His guests have incredible expertise and powerful testimonies.

00:12:41.000 They've been great friends.

00:12:43.000 And now you can hear from Charlie in his own words.

00:12:45.000 Each episode will make you recognize the power of your faith and how God can use your life to impact our world today.

00:12:51.000 The Culture and Christianity podcast is informative and encouraging.

00:12:55.000 You could find it on YouTube, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.

00:12:58.000 Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss any episodes.

00:13:00.000 Alan Jackson Ministries is working hard to bring biblical truth back into our culture.

00:13:05.000 You can find out more about Pastor Allen and the ministry at alanjackson.com forward slash Charlie.

00:13:14.000 Now, listen, we're going to do something a little bit different in this service here in just a couple minutes.

00:13:17.000 I'm giving you a heads up.

00:13:18.000 We're actually going to do a QA in this service.

00:13:22.000 And so we won't be screening questions. 0.99

00:13:25.000 You know, there's no such thing as a stupid question. 1.00

00:13:33.000 Just stupid answers. 1.00

00:13:36.000 Anyway, so don't ask one. 1.00

00:13:37.000 But I would say in the QA, just keep it tight, right?

00:13:40.000 Don't give a speech.

00:13:41.000 Just ask questions so we get to as many as you can.

00:13:42.000 Yeah, and he doesn't interpret dreams, okay?

00:13:44.000 So let's not go there.

00:13:45.000 Let's not go there.

00:13:46.000 I get the wackiest questions sometimes.

00:13:49.000 Yeah.

00:13:50.000 So speaking of wacky questions.

00:13:52.000 All right.

00:13:53.000 So during the whole pandemic deal, right, December, I think, 2020, there's the COVID relief bill, right?

00:14:01.000 And Congress writes into that relief bill that there's going to be 180 days given, at which point they're going to have to disclose all their information on UFOs.

00:14:13.000 And most people didn't catch this, but a lot of people did.

00:14:16.000 And they thought, we're dealing with a global pandemic.

00:14:18.000 What are these guys doing writing this thing in about disclosure of UFOs?

00:14:23.000 And then, sure enough, we've got the Tic Tac video that starts getting really, all right.

00:14:28.000 Skip a beat.

00:14:30.000 Two weeks ago, we have the Congress UFO hearing.

00:14:34.000 And this, you guys hear about this?

00:14:37.000 And this is what was determined.

00:14:38.000 Government is absolutely in possession of UAPs, okay, or UFOs, and that non-human biologics were found at the crash site.

00:14:49.000 Like, basically, alien, our government, Pastor Hyland, is in possession of aliens, okay?

00:14:59.000 And now, here's my question: Is it possible that Ben Shapiro might be a biologic?

00:15:10.000 I'm just kidding.

00:15:11.000 No, now here's no, we love, we love Ben Shapiro.

00:15:13.000 Now, here's the question: dude.

00:15:17.000 I mean, right, you've all thought maybe, but probably not.

00:15:20.000 Definitely not.

00:15:21.000 But here's my question: dude, what's happening?

00:15:24.000 Like, what is this?

00:15:25.000 Yeah, I mean, it's this one.

00:15:27.000 I did a little bit of a segment on this.

00:15:29.000 I actually haven't been as interested as most people because, as we say, like now, the true conspiracy theorists think they're lying to us about aliens.

00:15:38.000 It's like, for all the people that have been so invested in aliens, they're like, nope, not buying it.

00:15:42.000 Nope, nope, nope.

00:15:45.000 And in some ways, I mean, look, there's, I don't want to get too deep into the theology.

00:15:49.000 I will point you just as something that I think will be interesting.

00:15:52.000 Read C.S. Lewis on aliens.

00:15:53.000 It's really interesting.

00:15:54.000 C.S. Lewis is the greatest, I think, author of the 20th century.

00:15:58.000 And he wrote extensively thinking about what would happen if we ever found non-human life.

00:16:02.000 And he concluded it would not ever, it would not question that Jesus is Lord in any way, shape, or form.

00:16:09.000 And he points to the Nephilim, which does, there's a lot of interpretation of what the Nephilim is, but he goes at length.

00:16:15.000 So I'll let C.S. Lewis's work kind of stand for itself here.

00:16:18.000 I find it super interesting.

00:16:20.000 But I think it's largely a distraction, to be perfectly honest with you.

00:16:23.000 When now our own government starts to platform this stuff, I mean, is there aliens? 0.97

00:16:28.000 Are there not aliens?

00:16:30.000 I mean, the deeper question, I think, really is: I don't trust my government at all right now.

00:16:35.000 And now I'm supposed to trust them on this stuff.

00:16:37.000 I don't trust them with the vaccine.

00:16:39.000 I don't trust them with school closures.

00:16:41.000 I don't trust them with mask mandates.

00:16:43.000 I don't trust them with Ukraine. 1.00

00:16:44.000 I don't trust them on the southern border.

00:16:46.000 I don't trust them with Epstein's Island.

00:16:50.000 And now all of a sudden they're like, oh, yeah, by the way, you're not alone.

00:16:59.000 Now I'm back to the idea that there's no aliens because I just have a default position that these people are constantly distracting us, that there's an ulterior agenda and motive.

00:17:09.000 And so I'll leave it to the pastors and the theologians to build it out.

00:17:13.000 But this feels like a big smokescreen operation to me.

00:17:16.000 Yeah, come on, come on. 0.99

00:17:18.000 Hey, SB 5599, the bill that passed through where our state here is going to be providing shelter and accommodations for youth as they go through transgender surgery without asking for or without demanding any sort of parental consent, including gender modification, hyctomies, mastectomies, penile implants, breast implants, facial femininization services.

00:17:47.000 And so, and I just want to say this really quick: for those of you that are a part of our intercessory groups that have been praying for our state and nation, that went from church to church and even went to some mosque to get Muslims to sign the petition for this.

00:18:02.000 I just want to say thank you for being politically active and for doing everything possible.

00:18:09.000 So thank you.

00:18:10.000 I'm so stinking proud of you.

00:18:12.000 Even though we didn't get the signatures needed to see that come up, Charlie, there is such a demonic agenda and such an attack against our youth.

00:18:23.000 And would you be willing to speak into what you're seeing within the nation?

00:18:26.000 And more importantly, a lot of people in the church are feeling powerless to this thing that is certainly not flesh and blood.

00:18:34.000 No, I mean, look, Satan wants nothing more than to destroy the bond between a parent and a child.

00:18:41.000 Look, this trans thing has advanced so rapidly, and it is so evil. 1.00

00:18:47.000 There is no science behind it.

00:18:49.000 There's no rationality behind it.

00:18:50.000 There's no basis behind it, period.

00:18:54.000 And I have a theory as to why this state is one of the worst.

00:18:58.000 I largely think it's because it's one of the least churched states in the country.

00:19:03.000 And when there's no such thing as a secular society, you're going to fill it with some sort of a god, the god of scientism, the god of earth worship, the god of tolerance.

00:19:13.000 And I think that Washington, you know, Seattle, Tacoma area has a mixture of those.

00:19:17.000 But there is zero reason whatsoever, and these medieval witch doctors should be put in prison for what they're doing to these kids to put a child, a child, a 14-year-old child who is going through puberty, who says, because I saw a TikTok video after a 20-minute consultation with a doctor, and they say, I'm going to put you on Lupron or testosterone or altering drugs. 0.75

00:19:42.000 This is so diabolical.

00:19:43.000 It is irreversible.

00:19:45.000 It is evil.

00:19:46.000 And you ask yourself, where are the parents?

00:19:48.000 The parents aren't even allowed in the room now.

00:19:50.000 And so this state is now a sanctuary state bill.

00:19:54.000 And I have never felt so convicted on an issue, even more so than the abortion issue.

00:20:01.000 I'm very pro-life, just let's be clear.

00:20:02.000 But I'm more optimistic we can win on the trans issue and win quickly, even more so than the abortion issue.

00:20:09.000 The abortion issue, I think, is going to take a long, many decades of work.

00:20:12.000 I don't think that's the case with this issue.

00:20:14.000 I think we're starting to wake people up.

00:20:16.000 I think it is super radicalizing people when they realize how brutal these surgeries are.

00:20:21.000 I think that under this cloak of, oh, I'm a doctor and I know better, I'm telling you, it's church.

00:20:29.000 So I do, if you question me, just go home and do your research as to how brutal these surgeries actually are.

00:20:35.000 What exactly goes on when a young 13-year-old boy says, I want my private parts removed and I want an artificial hole put in my pelvis.

00:20:43.000 Now, I want you to really go through the research there because it's all built on this massive categorical lie and false promise.

00:20:50.000 Because they'll tell a 14-year-old who is going through gender dysphoria, that's what you used to call it, okay?

00:20:55.000 They're struggling with something that is legitimate, and there's a legitimate way to treat it.

00:20:59.000 And they'll give a false promise of, if you do these nine things, you then can become the other thing.

00:21:05.000 And that is a lie.

00:21:07.000 So all of the medical interventions are based on a lie.

00:21:10.000 Most medical interventions are not actually based on lies.

00:21:13.000 And I'll prove it to you.

00:21:14.000 If your appendix bursts and you remove it, it will solve appendicitis.

00:21:19.000 If you have a tumor and they remove it, so most medical interventions are cause-effect solution, cause-effect solution.

00:21:19.000 Right?

00:21:27.000 The trans thing is not. 1.00

00:21:29.000 So this is not medicine.

00:21:31.000 This is witch doctory.

00:21:33.000 This is like wizardry, is what this is.

00:21:35.000 It's like, I'm going to change you.

00:21:37.000 Like, no, your brain does not change.

00:21:39.000 We can look at DNA and we can tell female DNA versus male DNA.

00:21:43.000 We have different brains.

00:21:44.000 We have different chromosomes.

00:21:45.000 We have different structures completely.

00:21:48.000 Same species, different parts.

00:21:49.000 If you don't believe me, marry a woman and you'll find out that you are not a woman. 0.99

00:21:53.000 Okay? 0.96

00:21:54.000 You're very different.

00:21:56.000 And there's so many components of this where you go to a normal college, not a normal, but you go to a typical college campus, University of Washington, and you'll have kids sit in line that are sympathetic with the trans thing.

00:22:07.000 You just ask them a simple question.

00:22:08.000 What is a woman? 1.00

00:22:10.000 Matt Walsh deserves hero praise for his work on that topic, by the way.

00:22:10.000 What is a woman?

00:22:14.000 I mean that.

00:22:18.000 And they won't be able to answer it.

00:22:20.000 And they'll say, oh, well, you know, a woman is someone who identifies as a woman.

00:22:25.000 No, no, but what is that?

00:22:26.000 You can't answer the question with the definition of it.

00:22:30.000 It's like saying a man is a man. 0.64

00:22:31.000 No, no, no, but what is that thing?

00:22:34.000 And what they'll end up saying is that womanhood can be appropriated like a costume. 1.00

00:22:38.000 You can wear womanhood. 1.00

00:22:40.000 That if you dress like it, you become one.

00:22:43.000 This is such a war on reality.

00:22:45.000 And I could give a two-hour speech on how it's tyrannical in nature.

00:22:49.000 And if you disagree with it, they'll destroy your life, how it goes after kids, how it's going after parental rights, how it really destroys our trust of the medical scientific establishment.

00:22:58.000 But here's the point that I think the church really needs to stand on.

00:23:01.000 I was sitting around some people who were not religious, and they were genuinely concerned, and they were totally on our side on this trans issue, but they're not religious, okay?

00:23:11.000 And they were confused.

00:23:14.000 And they said, Charlie, I've done a lot of thinking.

00:23:16.000 I've done all the research.

00:23:18.000 I understand how awful a hysterectomy is, a double hysterectomy.

00:23:22.000 They understood it.

00:23:23.000 But they said, why are people doing this?

00:23:26.000 They said, there's no reasonable thing for this.

00:23:30.000 We as religious people should not go through those sort of confusion.

00:23:33.000 Because we know the enemy does things that are not reasonable.

00:23:37.000 That's right.

00:23:37.000 The secular world is going to go around in confusion.

00:23:40.000 In fact, I think some people are quiet on this issue because they refuse to admit or acknowledge something this evil could be happening in real time.

00:23:48.000 They refuse.

00:23:49.000 We are not given that license because we know we are fighting a spiritual war against Lucifer, against Satan, who goes after our children, is going after their bodies, going after their futures, and trying to capture their soul.

00:24:02.000 Satan wants every single person's life.

00:24:05.000 And if they can't get you to take your life immediately, then he'll take your being, he'll depress your soul.

00:24:11.000 This is the agenda here.

00:24:13.000 And so, I'll be honest, some churches are speaking out, but the fact that most churches are not having marches in the streets, seminars, protests, and rallies, this is modern-day lobotomies, but it's a lot bigger than that.

00:24:25.000 That's right.

00:24:26.000 It's more horrific.

00:24:27.000 It's so widespread.

00:24:29.000 And most pastors, honestly, are quiet because they're afraid of the alphabet mafia coming after them.

00:24:36.000 This is the modern human rights campaign of our time.

00:24:40.000 If you do not stand against this medical mutilation of our children, there's no evidence, there is no science to support it, period.

00:24:48.000 I believe we're going to be judged by the Almighty God.

00:24:50.000 I truly believe that.

00:24:51.000 Wow.

00:24:52.000 So good, Charlie.

00:24:57.000 Hi, folks.

00:24:58.000 Andrew Colvett here.

00:24:59.000 I'd like to tell you about my friends over at YReFi.

00:25:02.000 You've probably been hearing me talk about YReFi for some time now.

00:25:06.000 We are all in with these guys.

00:25:32.000 We go to campuses all over America and we see student after student who's drowning in private student loan debt.

00:25:38.000 Many of them don't even know how much they owe.

00:25:40.000 WhyReFi can help.

00:25:41.000 Just go to YReFi.com.

00:25:43.000 That's the letter why thenrefi.com.

00:25:50.000 Just go to YReFi.com and tell them your friend Andrew sent you.

00:25:57.000 I'm going to have our team take a microphone and go over into the aisle here.

00:26:01.000 And if you'd like to ask Charlie a question, you can just, Caleb, are you going to be my team?

00:26:09.000 Okay, sweet.

00:26:11.000 Just keep them short.

00:26:12.000 Let's get to as many as possible.

00:26:12.000 I think there's one right in front of you.

00:26:13.000 Awesome.

00:26:14.000 Awesome.

00:26:14.000 There's a couple right around you.

00:26:17.000 And if you want to ask a question, you're going to have to get up and go stand in this aisle and we could do roving.

00:26:23.000 It's fine.

00:26:24.000 Whatever works.

00:26:25.000 I'm going to hold the mic.

00:26:26.000 Okay.

00:26:27.000 My name's Chris.

00:26:28.000 Thanks for coming, Kirk.

00:26:29.000 The question is: if you had two or three pastors in sitting down with you, and they are pastors who are known to say, We don't want to be involved, we just don't want to get across the line, the barrier.

00:26:41.000 What would you say to them?

00:26:42.000 Resign.

00:26:43.000 But that's not, I'm told that's not overly persuasive.

00:26:55.000 Look, we know this in the book of Jude.

00:26:58.000 We know this in 1 Timothy.

00:26:59.000 We know this even lesser to an extent in Leviticus.

00:27:02.000 If you're in the priestly class, if you're in the ministry, you have different rules and different expectations and different standards.

00:27:08.000 There is a difference between the pastor and the congregation.

00:27:12.000 And that is all throughout scripture.

00:27:14.000 That if you are going to be dealing with the holy, you're going to be held to a higher standard.

00:27:20.000 So if you're going to be in the administration of teaching truth and you will not teach truth about the culture and you will not stand up against evil, you have no place being in the ministry.

00:27:30.000 You can go do something else. 0.99

00:27:33.000 I'm not saying you're not a Christian, but you're a coward and you shouldn't be leading the flock. 1.00

00:27:38.000 You're not a shepherd. 1.00

00:27:39.000 You're a shepherd that if a wolf or a predator comes, you're like, oh my gosh, I'm woke.

00:27:44.000 Don't eat my flock.

00:27:47.000 My sheep are trans pastors are supposed to protect the flock, lead the flock, correct the flock, not pander to the predators.

00:28:02.000 Next question. 0.99

00:28:03.000 If you could punch any pastor. 0.99

00:28:07.000 Okay, all right. 0.99

00:28:08.000 Next question.

00:28:09.000 So, yeah, Charlie, my nephew is in the United States Army.

00:28:13.000 He was a staff sergeant.

00:28:14.000 Thank you for sharing.

00:28:14.000 And he took the shot and he died.

00:28:18.000 And is anybody going to be held accountable for these people?

00:28:22.000 And are people going to make sure that they're not going to make any more mandates again?

00:28:27.000 Are there people doing anything about it?

00:28:29.000 Very little.

00:28:30.000 Look, I mean, you guys might have mixed opinions on the vaccine.

00:28:32.000 This region of the world lost their mind on COVID, by the way.

00:28:35.000 I don't know what got into the water here, but you guys were some of the worst.

00:28:38.000 I have my own theories on it, but holy moly.

00:28:42.000 This Seattle Tacoma, from mask mandates to vaccine mandates.

00:28:45.000 I went to downtown Seattle last night for dinner, and half of the waiters are still wearing masks.

00:28:50.000 I'm like, what planet is this on?

00:28:53.000 And you know what it is?

00:28:54.000 It's people so afraid of death they'll never actually live.

00:28:59.000 It's what it is.

00:29:00.000 Is that a culture that is so because they don't believe in an afterlife, this is all they have.

00:29:06.000 So they become neurotic freaks of their old existence.

00:29:09.000 Anyway, it's just amazing.

00:29:11.000 The one waiter was wearing latex gloves and double masks.

00:29:16.000 I mean, it was really shocking to me.

00:29:18.000 I've visited the country.

00:29:19.000 I've not seen anything close to it.

00:29:20.000 No, no one's going to be held accountable anytime soon.

00:29:22.000 There needs to be class action lawsuits, though, especially on the mandate side of it.

00:29:27.000 I know we're on YouTube.

00:29:28.000 I just encourage you to do your research.

00:29:29.000 The mRNA shot is not like any other vaccine that you might have taken or given to your child.

00:29:34.000 It is a different technology, okay?

00:29:37.000 It is a different technology, and it did not fulfill the promise of safe and effective and preventing the spread.

00:29:43.000 It did not do either of those things.

00:29:45.000 We're on YouTube, so I got to be careful.

00:29:47.000 Just do your research, and I think you'll find some very, very interesting facts on it.

00:29:52.000 I did not take the vaccine and I'm very glad I did not take the shot.

00:30:02.000 Hello, I'm Doug Bassler.

00:30:04.000 I'm a Christian guy.

00:30:05.000 I'm running for King County Elections Director this year, and I'm just wondering what you think about the state of election integrity.

00:30:15.000 Was 2020 the most secure election?

00:30:17.000 Right.

00:30:18.000 Boy, we're really trying to make you lose your YouTube status, right?

00:30:22.000 No, it was not the most secure election.

00:30:24.000 Look, unfortunately, the state of Washington, the state of Oregon, the state of Colorado have been the blueprint of how to destroy our elections in other states.

00:30:31.000 We should not have mass mail and voting.

00:30:33.000 You guys have basically standardized mass mail and voting, and it's not secure in the slightest.

00:30:39.000 The more ballots, the less security, the more that harvesters and full-time community organizers are then able to scoop up those ballots and fill it out on other people's behalf and do all sorts of tricky and awful things.

00:30:50.000 So it's a wish list at this time, but you have without a vision the people perish.

00:30:54.000 We should have one day of voting, no more mail-in balloting, and voter ID.

00:30:58.000 The closer we can get to that, the better.

00:31:00.000 Next question.

00:31:04.000 Hi.

00:31:05.000 My question is, how do you respond to offense and then actually leverage that to bring restoration?

00:31:12.000 Say that again. 0.71

00:31:13.000 I'll respond to offense.

00:31:15.000 Offense, yeah.

00:31:15.000 So people getting offended.

00:31:17.000 People getting offended, yeah.

00:31:18.000 So, look, I don't seek to offend people.

00:31:21.000 It just so happens things I say offend people a lot.

00:31:24.000 So, look, if the truth is offensive, then maybe the person's living in lies and they need to hear it.

00:31:30.000 The most loving thing you can do is tell somebody the truth and everyone else is lying to them.

00:31:34.000 And I'll prove it to you, right?

00:31:35.000 I mean, I don't like dentists at all.

00:31:37.000 I think it's like a form of torture.

00:31:39.000 And no offense, if you're a dentist, I just don't like the dentist.

00:31:42.000 But I had this throbbing pain in the back of my jaw a couple years ago, and I didn't want to go to the dentist, didn't want to go to the dentist.

00:31:48.000 Eventually, I went to the dentist out of absolute pain, and the dentist says, Okay, your wisdom tooth is infected.

00:31:54.000 If you don't get surgery in the next week, it could go to your brain and you could die.

00:31:58.000 I didn't want to hear that, but it offended me, maybe angry.

00:32:00.000 But it was so loving because it was truthful.

00:32:03.000 How many times are we afraid to tell the truth when somebody has something that's hurting them, but we're afraid to tell them the truth when actually might be the most loving thing?

00:32:11.000 So, don't be afraid to offend people.

00:32:13.000 The truth will stand on its own, right?

00:32:16.000 Jesus is the truth.

00:32:17.000 We must proclaim it.

00:32:18.000 Thank you.

00:32:23.000 What's your take on the Torben Sondergaard case?

00:32:26.000 And should we be organizing militias?

00:32:29.000 Okay, can you say the case again?

00:32:30.000 I'm sorry.

00:32:31.000 Torben Sondergaard?

00:32:32.000 I'm not familiar with it.

00:32:34.000 Oh, the minister who was jailed for over a year for preaching the gospel.

00:32:37.000 He tried to seek asylum in Florida.

00:32:40.000 Oh, wow.

00:32:41.000 The Canadian.

00:32:42.000 No, he's from Denmark.

00:32:43.000 Okay.

00:32:44.000 Oh, really?

00:32:44.000 Wow.

00:32:45.000 Okay, well, no pastor should be locked up for trying to preach the gospel.

00:32:48.000 I'd have to check out the case.

00:32:50.000 I'm sorry I don't know about it.

00:32:51.000 Should we be forming militias?

00:32:53.000 That's a loaded question, right?

00:32:55.000 I mean, I believe firmly the bad guys are trying to provoke us into a civil war.

00:33:00.000 So don't take that bait.

00:33:01.000 At the same time, as long as you are lawfully and peacefully assembling with your neighbors to prepare for potential tyranny or for widespread chaos, I think you're within your constitutional rights.

00:33:12.000 But just understand that the bad guys will try to infiltrate militia groups.

00:33:16.000 They'll have feds come into chat rooms to try to instigate and provoke violent activity from the American right to try to provoke a Patriot Act 2.0 type response, right?

00:33:27.000 But honestly, you know, I don't love the term militias just because it gets misinterpreted by the media, but that's actually a constitutional term, right?

00:33:35.000 But after the Floyd riots of 2020, if people arm up and they start to have some sort of agreement with neighbors, like, hey, if there's widespread looting and arson, and we're going to stand with each other, I think that's actually really healthy.

00:33:48.000 And it shows that we are going to have some sort of social contract against society falling apart.

00:33:54.000 The media will misinterpret what I'm saying as, oh, Charlie wants some sort of factions to be developed in the country.

00:33:59.000 That's not what I'm saying.

00:34:00.000 What I'm saying, though, is that, my goodness, we are living through the highest crime wave, and we're just supposed to sit and take it.

00:34:06.000 Like, no, America, you need to have systems and backup plans of self-sovereignty.

00:34:12.000 God forbid, our entire society falls apart and or our government becomes even more tyrannical and authoritarian.

00:34:18.000 I'll close with this.

00:34:19.000 The Second Amendment is not about deer hunting.

00:34:21.000 It's not about personal protection against robbers.

00:34:23.000 That's helpful.

00:34:24.000 It's against, God forbid, the government becomes tyrannical.

00:34:27.000 That's why we have the Second Amendment. 1.00

00:34:34.000 Hi, Charlie.

00:34:35.000 Thank you for everything you're doing.

00:34:36.000 I work for Lovelife.org, and we mobilize the church to come alongside and end abortion and come alongside the families unplanned pregnancy.

00:34:47.000 We go on to the corners, the streets where these clinics are having these abortions, and we're finding more and more that kids are coming in with and without parents, getting the transgender sex changes that are happening. 0.99

00:35:02.000 And it's horrific, and it's really hard to watch.

00:35:05.000 I was wondering if you can tell me if there are any ministries, we pray for them specifically as they're going in and talk to them and minister to them.

00:35:14.000 But I was wondering if there's any ministries that you know of that we can lock arms with and help with this and also how we can make a difference in our cities currently because there's so much of this happening in our schools.

00:35:26.000 Yeah, that's a really beautiful question.

00:35:29.000 It's a great question.

00:35:30.000 I don't know of any ministries that are currently equipped or focused on trying to educate on the trans thing.

00:35:38.000 It's just we're behind the curve, so we have to figure that out.

00:35:41.000 Understand, though, that they're trying to criminalize even questioning kids getting this.

00:35:46.000 This state is one of the worst at this, by the way.

00:35:48.000 And where they have literally criminalized pediatricians from giving an alternate point of view, you have to basically read off a script that if a kid who's 11 years old thinks I'm something that I'm not, the pediatrician is basically handcuffed based on American Medical Association, American Association of Pediatric Guidelines, to do nothing but administer drugs that will change their life forever.

00:36:10.000 So you might say, well, Charlie, how would you solve it?

00:36:12.000 Great book by Dr. Miriam Grossman called Lost in Trans Nation.

00:36:17.000 You have to read it.

00:36:18.000 She's not Republican.

00:36:19.000 She's not a right-winger, but she is so against this trans thing.

00:36:22.000 For years, just so you know, on the planet in the 1960s, 70s, 80s, and 90s, there were two, that's right, two gender-affirming clinics in the entire Western world.

00:36:32.000 Two.

00:36:34.000 And now there are hundreds across America, and I think there's probably dozens just in the Seattle-Tacoma area, right?

00:36:39.000 It's unbelievably profitable.

00:36:41.000 That's exactly right.

00:36:42.000 The pharmaceutical companies look at this as a billion-dollar gold mine to take your kids, castrate them, and get them addicted to pharmaceuticals for the rest of their life. 0.94

00:36:52.000 We're honored to be partnering with Alan Jackson Ministries, and today I want to point you to their podcast.

00:36:57.000 It's called Culture in Christianity, the Allen Jackson Podcast.

00:37:01.000 What makes it unique is Pastor Allen's biblical perspective.

00:37:04.000 He takes the truth from the Bible and applies it to issues we're facing today: gender confusion, abortion, immigration, Doge, Trump, and the White House, issues in the church.

00:37:13.000 He doesn't just discuss the problems.

00:37:15.000 In every episode, he gives practical things we can do to make a difference.

00:37:18.000 His guests have incredible expertise and powerful testimonies.

00:37:22.000 They've been great friends.

00:37:23.000 And now you can hear from Charlie in his own words.

00:37:25.000 Each episode will make you recognize the power of your faith and how God can use your life to impact our world today.

00:37:32.000 The Culture and Christianity podcast is informative and encouraging.

00:37:35.000 You can find it on YouTube, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.

00:37:39.000 Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss any episodes.

00:37:41.000 Alan Jackson Ministries is working hard to bring biblical truth back into our culture.

00:37:46.000 You can find out more about Pastor Allen and the ministry at alanjackson.com forward slash Charlie.

00:37:54.000 But even more than that, what is the solution?

00:37:56.000 I said this earlier, but I want to gloss this over.

00:37:59.000 The pharmaceutical companies and the pediatricians are taught and convinced that puberty is the problem, and we must stop puberty because it's only further playing into the anxiety.

00:38:10.000 I guarantee you, if I picked 10 random women in this audience, half of you would have memories of where you did not feel your best when you were 12, 13, or 14 and your body started to change. 0.55

00:38:20.000 Is that a fact?

00:38:21.000 But puberty actually ended up being the solution, not the problem, right?

00:38:25.000 You grow, what is the expression?

00:38:27.000 You grow into your body, right?

00:38:29.000 As you mature, you start to realize and start to get more anchored and more rooted.

00:38:33.000 So instead, what we do is we give drugs to stop puberty.

00:38:36.000 So we make the problem permanent.

00:38:39.000 Puberty is actually the solution.

00:38:40.000 It's God's gift to get you through that point, that transition point, and then you're an adult.

00:38:44.000 You're like, oh, wow, okay, now I get it.

00:38:46.000 Now I've maybe felt a little uncomfortable for, and all those hormones were raging.

00:38:50.000 And now we give them synthetic testosterone.

00:38:53.000 And so we're really behind on the interventions of the organizations that should try to stop this.

00:38:58.000 But the standard operating procedure, which worked in the 90s and early 2000s, this is literally what the American Association of Pediatricians used to say.

00:39:07.000 It's called watchful waiting.

00:39:10.000 You would literally take a kid who says, I'm a boy, I'm a girl.

00:39:13.000 And you would just say, okay, we're going to just watch you for the next couple months.

00:39:17.000 Like, watch you, meaning like we're going to have like weekly visits before we do any drugs or anything.

00:39:22.000 And 99% of the time, it just fades away.

00:39:25.000 It just fades away.

00:39:26.000 Of just kind of counseling and care, like, oh, are there other underlying issues?

00:39:29.000 And almost every single time, you know what the journals show?

00:39:32.000 I was bullied and I was called mean names at school and or I do not have a father figure around to correct me in error to make me feel loved in that way and they're seeking validation and seeking masculine affirmation through the medical industry. 0.76

00:39:47.000 Mad at dad is the number one driver of this trans nonsense. 1.00

00:39:52.000 As America has become more feminine, as American males have abandoned and abdicated their role in the home, we have this generation of girls mad at dad or there is no dad and they go find dad at a pediatrician's office and they think they're going to get that affirmation by cutting off their breasts and getting on Lupron and eventually antidepressants. 0.96

00:40:13.000 It's diabolical, everybody.

00:40:14.000 Thanks so much.

00:40:23.000 First, I would like to say thank you for being here.

00:40:25.000 I've been following you on Facebook.

00:40:27.000 And my question is actually in three parts.

00:40:31.000 One, in your viewpoint, what you should say to us to understand that first, church and government are not separate.

00:40:44.000 Two, what we should do, should be doing as a church to stop these.

00:40:50.000 And three, what we should do in the individual level.

00:40:53.000 Yeah, it's a great question.

00:40:55.000 So first, in the Constitution, it does not say separation of church and state.

00:40:59.000 That is a single letter that Thomas Jefferson wrote to the Danbury Baptist Convention where he was actually assuring the Baptist Convention that the government would not come after the church.

00:41:09.000 It is a misapplied reading that the secular courts of the 60s and 70s, the Briar Court, and others, not the Briar Court, I'll think of it in a second, but the Warren Court misapplied it, and all of a sudden they resurrected it.

00:41:23.000 Now you might say, well, Charlie, the First Amendment says Congress shall make no law.

00:41:26.000 Right, that's called the Establishment Clause and the Free Expression Clause.

00:41:29.000 The Establishment Clause is explained at great length in the Federalist Papers.

00:41:32.000 The Federalist Papers are basically the commentary.

00:41:34.000 It's like the midroche of the Constitution, where they're like, this is that Congress shall not have a Presbyterian church, an Anglican church, a Pentecostal church.

00:41:42.000 But never did they ever anticipate that the church or faithful people would not be involved in government.

00:41:47.000 Never would they ever anticipate that.

00:41:49.000 As one of the first acts of Congress, you might not know this, the government, Congress underwrote the printing and distribution of Bibles as one of the first ever acts of Congress.

00:41:59.000 Church ceremonies were conducted all the time in the Supreme Court building.

00:42:02.000 To this day, you can walk into the hall of Congress where they do all the voting, and Moses and the Ten Commandments are right there in the back end.

00:42:08.000 So they're going to try to take that down too.

00:42:11.000 I could just wait for their attacks on Moses.

00:42:12.000 Moses killed a man, so we have to take it down.

00:42:14.000 I just can't wait for their attacks on Moses.

00:42:16.000 Just wait.

00:42:17.000 So that's number one.

00:42:18.000 Number two, what should the church do?

00:42:20.000 Well, this church is doing the right thing.

00:42:21.000 You have to petition your government.

00:42:23.000 You have to get engaged.

00:42:24.000 You have to get involved.

00:42:25.000 You have to question your leaders.

00:42:27.000 And honestly, some of you need to run for office.

00:42:30.000 We need more members of churches to run for political office.

00:42:35.000 And look, I know you guys feel outnumbered in the state of Washington, but there's a lot of fight left in this state that I do not think has been totally realized.

00:42:45.000 There are phenomenal people in this state.

00:42:48.000 And I'm not saying you're going to win it back immediately, all that, but you have to contest.

00:42:52.000 You have to be obedient to the Lord to fight evil.

00:42:54.000 And you're going to win a little and lose a little, and win a little and lose a little.

00:42:57.000 But it's going to be a non-stop struggle.

00:42:59.000 And finally, what we can do personally is I think you have to adopt a whole of life strategy that you're going to be in this for the rest of your life.

00:43:07.000 And this is not comforting for people.

00:43:09.000 Some of you wanted to come to here today and thought that I was going to give you hopium.

00:43:12.000 Hope and opium mixed together.

00:43:13.000 It feels good, but it's not very good for you.

00:43:15.000 And I was just going to kind of tell you good stuff, and you're going to come home and be like, well, I don't have to do anything.

00:43:20.000 That's why I refuse to answer the question when someone says, Charlie, are you optimistic or pessimistic?

00:43:25.000 Now, ultimately, I'm optimistic.

00:43:27.000 Jesus will come back.

00:43:28.000 I don't know when.

00:43:29.000 The day or the hour is unknown, and he will sit on his throne and he will be the supreme judge of the world.

00:43:34.000 However, until then, am I optimistic or pessimistic about America?

00:43:39.000 If I said I was optimistic and I said we're going to win, you would go home and you would tell your wife or your husband, I don't have to do anything because Charlie's optimistic because we're going to win.

00:43:49.000 If I said I was pessimistic, you would go home and be like, forget it.

00:43:53.000 I'm not doing anything because we're going to lose.

00:43:56.000 Because Charlie said, in fact, this is the honest truth.

00:43:59.000 I've no idea how this thing's going to end up.

00:44:03.000 We could lose the whole country or we could win it back.

00:44:07.000 It's never been more 50-50 in my lifetime.

00:44:10.000 I see so much good and I see so much evil.

00:44:12.000 I see so much fight and I see so much weakness.

00:44:15.000 I see a constant contradiction of forces.

00:44:18.000 I see parents rising up and taking about school boards.

00:44:20.000 I see parents sending their kids to drag queens.

00:44:22.000 It's like all over the place.

00:44:24.000 That is a non-stop reminder that maybe we can actually win this place back if we dedicate ourselves to it.

00:44:30.000 It's not going to be easy.

00:44:31.000 It will not happen overnight.

00:44:32.000 But I don't think our victory is guaranteed or our loss is guaranteed.

00:44:35.000 It's wholly dependent on our obedience.

00:44:37.000 Thanks so much.

00:44:38.000 And then we'll take one more question.

00:44:39.000 One more.

00:44:42.000 Hi, Charlie.

00:44:43.000 Thank you for being here.

00:44:44.000 Thank you for being so articulate.

00:44:46.000 Love your podcast.

00:44:48.000 I am just curious, it seems to be two different camps: a prophetic world of pastors and leaders that are saying America shall be saved.

00:44:55.000 And I believe that too.

00:44:57.000 And yet, I listened to recently Jack Hibbs and Amir Sephardi, and I know you've been on the Happening Now.

00:45:04.000 Love him.

00:45:05.000 There's many very wise pastors, leaders, prophets.

00:45:08.000 I believe God speaks to the prophets first.

00:45:10.000 And so my husband and I lead a home group.

00:45:13.000 We're all having these discussions.

00:45:15.000 We listen to the Flashpoint army.

00:45:17.000 You know, we're part of all these different conversations and the prophetic movement.

00:45:17.000 We're part of that.

00:45:23.000 And yet, I heard Jack Hibbs say, which is true, Bible prophecy must be fulfilled.

00:45:27.000 These things must happen first.

00:45:29.000 There's perilous times ahead.

00:45:31.000 I love that you speak the truth.

00:45:32.000 You say it like it is.

00:45:33.000 So thank you for that.

00:45:34.000 I'm also a Pollyanna.

00:45:36.000 So I want to believe America will be saved.

00:45:39.000 It's not going to change my stance in my prayer, but I'm just curious.

00:45:42.000 I'd love the pastors to talk about these two different camps.

00:45:46.000 Yes, so it's interesting.

00:45:47.000 At TPSA Faith, we bring all the tribes together.

00:45:50.000 So we have people that are pre-trib, post-trib, swinging from the chandelier Pentecostals, right?

00:45:57.000 We had it all over the place.

00:45:59.000 And yeah, exactly.

00:46:01.000 And I'm really not part of any of those denominational tribes, honestly, right?

00:46:06.000 I'm really close with the Calvary world and Jack Hibbs.

00:46:08.000 I'm also really close with a lot of the Assembly of God guys.

00:46:11.000 I believe in the Nicene Creed.

00:46:13.000 I believe Jesus is the king of the world.

00:46:15.000 And I let people that are theologians or pastors debate it on my behalf.

00:46:19.000 Have at it.

00:46:20.000 My job and my message is: so what?

00:46:23.000 What are you going to do?

00:46:24.000 Jesus will return.

00:46:27.000 I'm on the welcoming committee, not the planning committee.

00:46:38.000 So what do you want to be caught doing when Jesus returns?

00:46:41.000 Do you want to be caught running to the hills being like, what took you so long?

00:46:45.000 No, I'm going to keep working.

00:46:47.000 I'm going to act like he's a thousand years away.

00:46:50.000 I'm going to look at the signs of the times, and I find that interesting.

00:46:53.000 Again, they're way more equipped theologically and biblically than I am.

00:46:56.000 And there's a lot of debate amongst that.

00:46:58.000 Here's what bothers me: two things.

00:47:00.000 The assurance of the prophecy that America will definitely be saved creates apathy.

00:47:06.000 The assurance that Jesus is coming next Thursday creates apathy.

00:47:11.000 My whole theology is about action.

00:47:15.000 I believe faith without works is dead.

00:47:18.000 That is my daily message to you.

00:47:21.000 You got to work, you got to work.

00:47:23.000 And my why is because I love the Lord.

00:47:25.000 Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, strength, and mind.

00:47:28.000 I do what I do out of obedience, not because I think we're going to win or think we're going to lose.

00:47:33.000 And so all that is interesting and can nourish you, but then you have to kind of take a step back and say, so what are we going to do?

00:47:40.000 And what we're going to do is we're going to occupy till he comes.

00:47:43.000 We love God, so we hate evil.

00:47:44.000 Psalm 97:10.

00:47:46.000 And we are going to fight, and we're going to fight, and we're going to fight.

00:47:49.000 And if God rewards us with taking back terrain and gives life to America, praise God.

00:47:53.000 If America's best days are behind us, then honestly, we deserve that judgment because we've done a poor job of administering this place.

00:47:59.000 But I'm not going to be a spectator.

00:48:02.000 I'm going to give it my all.

00:48:03.000 And that's my call to action to you: to be an activist and a participant for righteousness, for goodness, for truth, and for beauty.

00:48:10.000 Not to just sit idly by and say, yep, it's all over.

00:48:12.000 Jesus, set me up.

00:48:13.000 Hurry up.

00:48:15.000 I don't think that's biblical.

00:48:16.000 That is not why Christ gave us the great commission.

00:48:18.000 Be salt and light.

00:48:19.000 Salt and light change the environments they come in contact with.

00:48:24.000 And we're called to change some pretty dark times.

00:48:26.000 We're very blessed to live in such a time as this.

00:48:32.000 Real quick, for people that want to go deeper on this journey to Turning Point, Charlie, how do we go deeper with you?

00:48:38.000 Yeah, so we have a TPSA table out there.

00:48:41.000 Please go and say hi.

00:48:43.000 Also, if you guys would take out your phone, it's free of charge and subscribe to the Charlie Kirk Show podcast.

00:48:48.000 I know it's a shameless plug, but it actually really does help us.

00:48:52.000 It's free.

00:48:53.000 We do three podcasts a day.

00:48:55.000 Who here listens to the show?

00:48:56.000 Anyone listen?

00:48:57.000 Thank you guys.

00:48:58.000 Maybe you guys can convince the people that aren't.

00:49:00.000 I think we deliver something that other people do not.

00:49:03.000 From a biblical pro-American perspective, you can follow the QR code.

00:49:07.000 And if it's an iPhone, that upper right-hand plus sign, it's totally shameless, but it is free.

00:49:12.000 And it's a way that we can stay in touch.

00:49:14.000 As Dennis Prager would say, his favorite word in the English language is earn.

00:49:18.000 I would love to earn the right to be a go-to news source for you.

00:49:23.000 Here's my one thing on news.

00:49:25.000 Please stop watching white noise cable television of empty calories.

00:49:30.000 Watch or listen.

00:49:32.000 In fact, I prefer you listen.

00:49:34.000 There's actually a lot of biblical in Deuteronomy says, hero Israel, right?

00:49:39.000 I think the ear is actually a better way to learn than the eye.

00:49:42.000 So you should listen to more news than watch news on TV.

00:49:44.000 That's a separate issue.

00:49:46.000 But find people that challenge you intellectually.

00:49:48.000 Find people that do segments more than six minutes.

00:49:50.000 Find, and if it's my show, great.

00:49:52.000 If it's Matt Walsh, great.

00:49:54.000 Whatever it is, just stop eating empty calories of cable news of the same repurposed Trump versus Biden.

00:50:01.000 There's a lot deeper game going on, folks.

00:50:03.000 And we deliver that to you every single day.
