00:00:00.000
Most of us can sense our society is really sick and it grows sicker by the day.
00:00:05.220
How did we go from a country founded on God to one devoted to God's destruction?
00:00:23.380
Joe Biden's office targeting and arresting Christians and ignoring those who murder Christians?
00:00:30.000
All the while praising the trans ideology driven to kill them?
00:00:43.820
So let's use the Sherlock Holmes means of deduction.
00:00:51.240
What if I told you all this insanity is not the result of wokeism that is out of control,
00:00:56.920
but it is connected to an ancient paganistic evil?
00:01:05.600
Today, I have a guest that has discovered the blueprint to an age-old menace.
00:01:13.420
As a charismatic minister, he has devoted himself to unveiling the invisible mysteries
00:01:20.620
His latest revelation comes in the form of his seventh book, The Return of the Gods.
00:01:27.120
It reveals how the radical transformations of our society today are all part of an ancient
00:01:34.320
pattern, almost like a beast awoken from centuries of slumber.
00:01:39.620
Evil spirits of the old world have found a way to possess our world.
00:01:44.400
I hope you think all of this is nuts, and then you will give the time to listen to what
00:01:53.140
You will have an opinion one way or the other at the end of this.
00:01:57.140
Our civilization celebrates the rise of evil every day.
00:02:04.540
Remember, the devil prowls around like a roaring lion seeking someone to devour.
00:02:10.700
He is the prince of this world, and he's always looking for new converts to help fight in
00:02:18.320
his war against love and light, and to bring chaos and destruction.
00:02:24.500
The idea of a spiritual battle taking place in the real world does sound crazy.
00:02:32.040
Doesn't to me, because that's the only way I can explain what's happening.
00:02:36.500
And my guest today documents moments in history that are nearly identical to what we are seeing
00:02:46.720
If we do nothing, we're just as guilty as the German Christians in Nazi Germany who heard
00:02:52.940
the trains pass their church, and all they did was sing louder to drown out the screams.
00:02:59.800
I invite even the most agnostic among this audience to keep an open mind and welcome Jonathan
00:03:11.480
All right, before we get to the interview, it's time to change up the way you buy meat.
00:03:15.380
It just keeps going up and up and up in the grocery stores.
00:03:19.020
Plus, most of the time, you're not getting American meat.
00:03:22.460
You can have meat that has been killed in China, put onto a boat, shipped over here, and then
00:03:30.860
they cut it into steaks here in America, and they put the little label on it that says product
00:03:45.280
And when you subscribe, they're going to give you free bacon for a year, $240 value, and you'll
00:03:51.260
get a pound and a half of bacon with every box.
00:03:59.640
Go to your grocery store and ask the butcher, hey, can I get the same price for this all
00:04:05.540
Your price gets locked in, so you're not battling inflation every day.
00:04:10.700
Every goodranchers comes in a box, and it's delicious, and it's good for you, and you're
00:04:20.320
All natural burgers, USDA prime steaks, better than organic chicken, bacon source from the
00:04:28.120
So ditch the grocery store and join me with goodranchers.com.
00:04:34.760
You get the free bacon, great meat, secure price, and a bonus of $20.
00:05:01.720
I think a lot of people feel that we're not fighting flesh and blood, flesh and bone.
00:05:23.220
And when we talked on the air, I just found so much truth in what you're saying.
00:05:35.280
So I want to start our conversation with, let's lay down some terms and let's understand what
00:05:45.340
we're really talking about here to the person who's not into ancient history or even God
00:05:54.560
So the word pagan, we hear it all the time, but what does it actually mean?
00:06:01.340
Yeah, it actually comes from when the gospel was spreading through the Roman Empire, those
00:06:06.740
who were the most resistant lived in the hills and pagan was linked to that.
00:06:11.480
So what it really means is that which is outside of Judeo-Christian revelation culture.
00:06:18.840
So it would be like somebody who's an infidel to Muslims?
00:06:27.120
When you look at culture before the word, before the Bible, you know, everything outside
00:06:31.980
of Israel and outside of Christianity, particularly the worship of gods or polytheism, pantheism,
00:06:40.460
this is pretty much the rule, you know, on planet Earth.
00:06:48.720
So when you look at ancient gods, they become almost laughable because, you know, Hercules,
00:06:58.840
it just seems like a bunch of stuff that people made up.
00:07:05.640
You're going to talk about three specific gods.
00:07:08.060
I mean, I know the history, but I don't, I've never seen them as separate entities.
00:07:22.580
They all make up one and it's, we're really talking about one evil entity.
00:07:27.260
I would say there's an evil entity behind them.
00:07:29.660
You know, there is an enemy behind them, but they are three, the three distinct major deities
00:07:38.660
And the thing, here's the thing, you know, yeah, there's two realms.
00:07:42.360
One is if you go back to the ancient world, everybody was worshiping gods.
00:07:45.820
It doesn't matter where, Germany, Hawaii, it doesn't matter.
00:07:48.480
Everybody, which is kind of strange, you know, but the Bible gives a, you know, by the way,
00:07:53.780
So, you know, I can identify with anybody who's, who's like, the Bible says a kind of a mystery
00:07:59.500
It says that behind the gods, you know, of the world were entities and, and the word it gives
00:08:07.400
Shedim literally means destroyers, but it says they're worshiping that.
00:08:10.900
So what it's saying is behind the gods, it's not saying the gods are like masks, you know,
00:08:16.380
You said at the beginning, and I say the same thing.
00:08:18.480
There are people who are not even believers, they're liberal and, you know, whatever, and
00:08:26.940
And there is something supernatural that is behind these things.
00:08:29.760
And so the Bible is saying that behind the gods were spirits.
00:08:33.020
Their entities, consciousness, the gods are a mask in that sense.
00:08:38.100
The, it's trans, the word got translated into Greek by the rabbis and they translated the
00:08:46.920
It's a weird thing because, because the Greeks called many of their gods demons.
00:08:52.440
And so, and when Paul in the new Testament, he says the pagan world, pagan world is worshiping
00:08:59.600
So the first thing is that there's something real behind them, not that the mythology we
00:09:05.100
And so when you look at pagan culture or the culture outside of the Bible, it has the same,
00:09:13.380
You know, when the closer you got to the gods, like, uh, the oracles and the priests, the more
00:09:18.140
they're shaking and trembling and channeling and foaming at the mouth, that's all over the
00:09:23.320
So you even Western civilization was part of it, except for the Bible.
00:09:26.620
So you have a, a, a culture that's given to the gods, given to the spirits, but then
00:09:33.880
So the, what we're going to talk about are the, the ancient rituals, but they've happened
00:09:46.820
So, um, I mean the, I keep looking at the 1930s and forties and if I were, you know, living
00:09:55.000
at those times, I would have thought if some more of the signs had happened, I think, I
00:10:05.520
And I've never felt that way except in retrospect, I didn't live in those times, but looking back,
00:10:12.580
I think that was evil and it was sweeping the world.
00:10:19.020
Were they doing the same kind of stuff back then?
00:10:23.760
You know, my father was born in Germany, so he went, he got out by barely, but, but he
00:10:28.200
witnessed this takeover of the culture and it goes to a, it goes to really the key is
00:10:34.580
And he, and he, and this is crucial because with Nazi Germany, with what's happening now
00:10:39.320
and that is, he gives this parable, but this parable is crucial because it says that if
00:10:43.780
a spirit leaves a man talking about exorcism, leaves a man, but it goes around looking for
00:10:48.820
a place, doesn't find it says, I'm going to go back to the man.
00:10:51.340
I'm going to go back to my house, goes back to the house or the man finds it swept empty,
00:10:56.560
clean in order, goes back at seven other spirits.
00:11:01.120
Jesus said the latter, the last state is worse than the first.
00:11:05.320
And so, but he said, people say, okay, that's about a person.
00:11:07.960
He says at the end, he says, so it will be with this generation.
00:11:12.660
It can happen to a culture, it can happen to a civilization.
00:11:15.540
And so the warning is that any nation or civilization, Western civilization was basically
00:11:21.160
exercised of these things by the, when the gospel came in, it was a basically a mass
00:11:26.600
The gods left and it was, that's why the West is so different.
00:11:32.960
But the warning is to America, to the world, that if it ever turns away from God, if it
00:11:38.420
ever empties the house of God, it's not going to stay empty.
00:11:42.320
These spirits, these, or the gods, these, the same things that were cast out of it at
00:11:47.060
the beginning of the age are coming back into it.
00:11:49.520
And so that happened with, when Germany, that's the warning because look what happened.
00:11:53.320
Germany was the land of the Reformation, land of the Bible.
00:12:04.000
So when you look at, because one of the things that really concerns me about today's society
00:12:10.840
is the experts that that was all happening in Germany, especially in doctors and nurses,
00:12:16.860
it wasn't the Nazis that were killing people and the, and the babies.
00:12:21.900
It was the Nazi doctors that, and they led with that philosophy.
00:12:26.980
And yes, we're going through much of the same stuff.
00:12:40.620
I've been saying for a while, we've been so good.
00:12:44.160
We've been such a bright light, but if we go bad, we're going to reach the dark levels
00:12:58.160
It is, it is now what was happening in say Germany, very dramatically is happening across
00:13:08.260
And the thing is, here's the thing about it is that it's worse if you've known God,
00:13:12.220
it's worse if you have been a light to the world, because then, you know, what it's saying
00:13:16.880
is it's going to be worse for the one who had known and got delivered and then got repossessed
00:13:23.940
In other words, what's coming is worse than what was in paganism.
00:13:28.440
Or put another way, the pagan world could produce a Caligula or a Nero.
00:13:32.680
The post-Christian world produces a Hitler and a Stalin.
00:13:38.820
And one of the things that pagan or the revival of these things do is it devalues life.
00:13:45.300
You know, people could be killed, babies could be killed, and old people could be killed.
00:13:49.220
So once you devalue life, you know, this is what the gospel undid.
00:13:59.260
They said 10,000 people have been killed last year in Canada under the program of euthanasia.
00:14:08.140
So now let's break down and talk about, first of all, what's principalities?
00:14:16.980
It's the word that's used when you, I think you sort of alluded or you quoted when he says,
00:14:22.400
Paul says that we war against principalities or powers.
00:14:27.280
It's talking about spiritual forces, spirit forces.
00:14:30.560
When you, when, and I'm glad you brought up Germany because you cannot explain that in the natural.
00:14:35.340
You can only explain that with there is something demonic or something spiritual.
00:14:41.420
So you talk about three different gods and the first God that shows up.
00:14:48.400
And, and I'd like you to compare the, from ancient times to current times.
00:14:58.680
Cause I don't think people know, maybe some do, but I don't think people know that they're
00:15:07.700
Nobody is like, Hey, I'm a part of the church of Baal.
00:15:17.820
It's, it's kind of scarier when you don't know it because the fact is they're doing it
00:15:22.280
The first, the, what I call the dark Trinity in the return of the gods.
00:15:25.460
The first one is, is his name means the possessor.
00:15:28.420
It means the master, means the Lord or the owner.
00:15:35.120
And what happened is when Israel turned away from God and the house, it wasn't going to
00:15:42.300
And what happened is that the effect on, on the culture then in ancient Israel was that
00:15:49.140
it started driving God out of everything, started almost exercising the culture of God,
00:15:54.060
driving him out of the, out of the, the public square, out of the government, out of life.
00:16:04.360
Well, you open the door when you start saying, well, we don't need God here.
00:16:10.960
And when you look at all these things, that's where you see it go.
00:16:14.440
Because when you open up, it's like you empty the house.
00:16:18.120
If you take God out of the schools, you take God out of the children, something else is going
00:16:23.200
This is exactly what Nietzsche was talking about when he said, God is dead.
00:16:29.920
People always read that like he was celebrating.
00:16:31.860
No, he was saying, be careful because man will have a God.
00:16:42.080
And something came in into Germany just like that.
00:16:47.200
We didn't do it as dramatically as Nietzsche, but we made the same mistake.
00:16:51.460
Well, what happened is something came into our culture and it's not staying empty.
00:16:55.000
And so what came in is this, the first spirit is that.
00:16:58.060
He's kind of like that, the spirit that comes in back and says, I'm going to get my friends.
00:17:06.760
It's the principality that takes a culture that has known God, like ancient Israel, modern
00:17:11.780
America, and converts it or seeks to convert it from a Judeo-Christian nation into a pagan
00:17:18.640
And that's exactly, if you want to look at what's been happening to America and much
00:17:23.380
It's a process of paganization and it's a repossession.
00:17:26.480
And the other thing it says he did, it says he caused, he caused Israel to forget God.
00:17:31.100
Well, it's like there's an amnesia that has come on America.
00:17:34.060
You know, if we were, if we were in the 1950s, we would see that the teachers of this nation
00:17:39.040
were leading our children into the Lord's prayer.
00:17:41.860
We can't even, we can barely remember that America.
00:17:44.300
I mean, it's so foreign, but it has caused us not only to forget God, but it's caused
00:17:49.780
We have, we have a culture that barely even knows it ever knew it.
00:17:52.680
And the other thing it says it caused Israel to overturn the ways of God.
00:17:56.440
So we have literally struck down the 10 commandments in this, just like Israel.
00:18:00.120
So what's been happening since the sixties, it hasn't stopped a continual overturning of
00:18:04.980
the ways of God and until it leads to where we are now.
00:18:08.020
But it's not just like, that's like the, the, that's kind of like the obvious ways, but there
00:18:13.420
For instance, wokeism and all these things we're dealing with right now that, you know, if
00:18:21.220
If you have polytheism, paganism, you don't have one truth.
00:18:40.180
Another, another one I brought out in the book is that the Bible says that when you turn
00:18:44.900
away from God, you end up serving the works of your hands.
00:18:48.260
And, you know, and when, when Paul speaks about the pagan worship of idols, he uses a
00:18:55.000
He used a Greek word, techne, we get the word technology.
00:18:58.320
So what is happening now, we turn away from God.
00:19:04.720
It's, it's, it's, and it's weird because when I read that, I thought, I thought of everybody
00:19:08.980
if I ever see on technology there, they've got their head bowed.
00:19:14.500
And it's almost as if we are worshiping it because you, you know, you are, you become
00:19:23.300
And the word, you know, it says with Israel, it says there were, there wasn't, the Baal was
00:19:26.080
God, but there were many forms of Baals because they had many Baals.
00:19:33.100
Even we, even we now have technology that's taking over our thoughts.
00:19:36.440
We have artificial intelligence that is now a danger to us.
00:19:39.600
And the Bible says they, the people become like what they, they, the idol they made,
00:19:45.180
Well, now we have a whole generation that's becoming less human.
00:19:49.560
They're becoming more like the machine that they're on and the machines are becoming more
00:19:53.880
So even that, and, and one of the, like the most, I'd say blatant sign of Baal was, and
00:20:00.320
you find it in Israel, you find it in the Bible was a sign of a molten bull.
00:20:10.440
Well, if you go down to New York city, go down to where the Harbingers are, where I've
00:20:14.080
talked about it, you go down, you'll see a massive bronze bull.
00:20:17.700
They didn't know what they were doing, but this is a sign in the Bible of a nation that
00:20:23.400
I mean, from the golden calf to the bronze bull that has known God turned away is now given
00:20:37.280
We call it bullish, you know, and that's where it all is.
00:20:39.720
We didn't know what we're doing, but we did it.
00:20:41.720
And, and you mentioned, we were talking before, um, is not only that they actually erected
00:20:46.740
the arch of Baal in New York city and they knew what they were doing in that one.
00:20:50.860
I was, I was, uh, I think I was in New York city when they did that and I, me too.
00:20:55.460
And I thought, what, who thought this was a good idea?
00:21:03.640
They actually, they erected in, in lower Manhattan, actually right at the financial district.
00:21:08.840
They erected, um, on the grounds of city hall, the ancient arch of Baal, the God Baal.
00:21:15.860
And I, and I, I was there, wanted to witness it.
00:21:18.440
And you actually had signs saying arch of Baal.
00:21:21.300
They had a, they had a mute, they had musicians playing the music of Baal.
00:21:25.680
They unveiled it with a ceremony and they had the, the leaders of New York praising this
00:21:33.380
And, and, you know, you said something that this is an arch, this is a doorway, a gateway.
00:21:38.780
And New York is a gateway, it's the gateway of America.
00:21:41.060
So you have the arch, you have the gateway of Baal at the gateway of America, a nation
00:21:45.480
that, that, you know, that has turned away from God.
00:21:47.340
This is, I mean, you can't get more dramatic than that.
00:21:49.460
And, and the other thing was, there was one other time it appeared in America and that
00:21:54.600
And the thing is, it was noteworthy because it appeared the very day that the hearings were
00:22:01.000
on, were at the, on the, on the Capitol Hill for Kavanaugh.
00:22:06.780
The whole issue was fighting over the, the offering of children.
00:22:10.340
So the arch of Baal appears in Washington, right in front of the Capitol building where they're
00:22:14.660
having the hearings right there, the side, which, which the battle is over the children
00:22:22.260
And they didn't that, they didn't realize that, but their spiritual, this is the thing.
00:22:35.460
And if you're like me, when you have to spend that money, I prefer to spend it on things that
00:22:51.460
So God forbid the supply chain breaks down again and we're not held hostage by the rest
00:22:58.960
Things in America used to be made to last longer, work better.
00:23:06.260
Well, there are a few companies that I am proud to represent that I have partnered with
00:23:10.860
to tell you about them that are bringing that quality back to America.
00:23:18.180
You're getting true American experience products that you can count on.
00:23:21.940
They've got belts and wallets and all kinds of stuff.
00:23:24.560
When you buy their socks, you are supporting the American rancher.
00:23:29.460
That rancher raises specially bred sheep that produce the modern world that they send to
00:23:36.200
the American manufacturer who wash the wool and then process it and then weave it into
00:23:41.020
socks that keep your feet warm in the winter, cool in the summer.
00:23:44.700
The American business owners who have accepted the risk that comes along with rebuilding our nation
00:24:06.980
And then he lets in the next one, which is Moloch, right?
00:24:21.500
This is, in the Canaanite theology, she's the wife of Baal or the lover of Baal.
00:24:27.580
But this is one of the most ancient principalities on earth.
00:24:38.300
You know, and we think, okay, there's nothing nice about this thing.
00:24:42.240
This is the principality of sexual immorality, unbridled licentiousness.
00:24:52.880
When you think of Aphrodite, you know, people will think, yeah.
00:24:59.460
And so, yeah, so there's nothing nice about it.
00:25:01.580
What she did is she sexualized, the spirit sexualizes the culture.
00:25:05.000
You know, which has never been the case in Western civilization or since the gospel, but it is now.
00:25:10.260
And what she did is she was a prostitute goddess.
00:25:14.180
A prostitute takes sexuality out of marriage and puts it into the marketplace, puts it into the culture.
00:25:19.860
So what we would expect to happen right now is you have the early 60s, you have Baal, you have the turning away.
00:25:26.320
Then you'd expect, like clockwork, the next one, you'd have something would happen with sexuality.
00:25:36.580
Right after we start turning from God, it always happens.
00:25:39.000
We start turning away from basically the biblical morals on sexuality, marriage, on all that.
00:25:45.600
And the thing is that everything that's happened is in the direction of paganism.
00:25:51.920
The values we've replaced now are basically pagan values.
00:25:55.320
And the thing is that it's also she weakened marriage.
00:26:01.880
It's not an accident at the same time you have the sexual revolution.
00:26:14.100
And the other thing about it is, you know, it's like I would say like the gods that have returned or the spirits, their mission is, again, to paganize a Christian or Judeo-Christian nation, just like Israel fell away.
00:26:25.940
And by the way, this happened to Israel, too, with Ashtora.
00:26:29.200
But the thing is that she does it through the realm of sexuality.
00:26:32.120
When in ancient Greece, she was worshipped as the great prostitute.
00:26:36.420
And the word in Greece for prostitute is porn, porne.
00:26:42.940
In fact, pornography, the very first pornography that came on the planet was the literature of this goddess and the images of this goddess.
00:26:50.540
So she's really it's really the invention of pornography.
00:26:58.260
And, you know, we mentioned Venus, you know, and I said, OK, Venus and those little Valentine days things.
00:27:03.360
We have that little cute angel that that, you know, fires the arrow, Cupid.
00:27:07.440
But really, you know, we use the word erotic, like we have an eroticization of our culture.
00:27:20.520
So from this goddess, you have porn, literally, and you have erotica.
00:27:24.960
And you have you have a basically a seduction of the culture that has taken over everything.
00:27:33.280
It seemed like for a while that we had beaten some of this stuff back.
00:27:39.740
You know, in the last 20 years, there are things happening now that are completely unreasonable.
00:27:48.440
You know, if you're talking about gay marriage, well, it's about I love him and he loves me, yada, yada.
00:27:56.400
Now we've gotten to where it keeps going, child molestation, child mutilation, teaching, teaching children are most precious asset that we could ever have our children.
00:28:29.140
I don't know what I what there was a movie called The Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
00:28:32.580
And it's kind of like they keep getting taken over and taken over.
00:28:34.940
Here are people who just a few years ago would say, no, no, this is.
00:28:41.660
This is why I so when you put the book out, I'm like, yes, it is demonic.
00:28:52.780
You can also, you know, you should be able to say with that big of a change.
00:28:59.000
You could you should be able to say to your friend, you know, just a few years ago, that
00:29:17.700
And people, you know, politicians who voted against these things just a little while back
00:29:25.680
And nobody can have an answer because it because it is a possession.
00:29:28.880
And the other thing is that you mentioned is the the spirits are always after the children
00:29:32.560
because if you can get the children, you get the nation.
00:29:37.080
And so the so the gods were always after to destroy the children, to sexualize the children.
00:29:43.260
And so so the same way now you have this with the children and that that goes with the other
00:29:51.780
That is that another thing that came at the same time.
00:29:53.880
I didn't mention this before, is that this goddess is also the goddess of the occult and
00:30:01.960
At the same time, you have the sexual revolution.
00:30:06.720
You have more witches in America now than we have Presbyterians in America now.
00:30:17.920
And the the other one who's after the children is you mentioned is Moloch.
00:30:21.800
And and what happened is it kind of kind of goes together because you have you have the
00:30:33.340
When Israel turned away from God, they ended up offering their children on the altars of Moloch
00:30:38.240
in the Valley of Hinnom filled with children being offered.
00:30:44.440
And just like clockwork at the end of the 60s comes the next step.
00:30:47.300
And this is where we're actually offering up our children.
00:30:50.580
And the thing is that, you know, Jesus said they come back worse.
00:30:53.920
Well, this one, you know, this one, you know, back in ancient Israel, they offered up thousands
00:30:59.200
We've offered up over 64 million of our children.
00:31:05.620
The same way we they did that back then, we're repeating it in abortion.
00:31:10.560
It actually I I I put I felt led to put in the book how the steps are actually being
00:31:16.720
And for instance, one of the things is why did why did they offer up their children back
00:31:21.360
Because they were told if you do that, you're going to be financially better off.
00:31:31.220
Because if you have a baby, it's going to hurt your career.
00:31:36.340
The other thing is that which children were offered up more than any other back then?
00:31:47.940
You know, and what they did back then is they they played music to drown out the children,
00:31:57.040
You know, they we actually I've actually the radical feminists and leaders of abortion
00:32:02.040
have actually talked about abortion as a sacrament.
00:32:10.220
I mean, you have out and everybody dismisses it.
00:32:16.440
OK, and in I think it's New Mexico, they have opened up a an abortion clinic for ritualistic
00:32:34.280
And then when somebody asks them, they're like, do you think we actually are doing it?
00:32:45.700
You know, it tells you you're on the right side when when the church of Satan is on the
00:32:51.100
And it reveals something that why are they there?
00:32:57.320
So it tells you something about really what's behind all this, you know, and absolutely we're
00:33:02.700
You know, I think most people are doing it without realizing what they're doing.
00:33:05.480
This Church of Satan maybe knows a little bit better, you know, but but.
00:33:09.000
The fact is, you know, Israel was actually destroyed for the children that offered up.
00:33:15.580
The only thing that ended this, Glenn, that took this away from the world was the gospel.
00:33:20.040
You know, they were offering up children all over the world and it was the gospel.
00:33:22.880
But but when you take Jesus out, you take the gospel out, you take God out.
00:33:35.720
Our most important institutions are being systematically destroyed.
00:33:42.820
You know, in this podcast, we're talking about, you know, God and scary things.
00:33:54.060
True freedom comes from the same kind of thing.
00:33:59.320

00:34:54.140
So let me, I know people who have had abortions and or an abortion and they're ripped apart inside.
00:35:06.820
You never, ever hear from these people because it destroys the narrative that the left wants you to have.
00:35:27.980
But back in the Bible days, you would come and give your baby.
00:35:37.880
So are you saying that the, how are they doing?
00:35:45.400
You know, now we give it to the abortionist, but you give it to the officiant who would offer it up.
00:35:50.000
And sometimes parents themselves put their baby on the altar.
00:35:54.920
The thing is, listen, this is, this goes back to the whole thing.
00:35:57.420
When the gods come back, they're not going to come back saying we're gods.
00:35:59.900
They're not going to come back saying, you know, hey, we want to destroy you.
00:36:03.980
We're not going to, they come back in the name of tolerance.
00:36:07.320
You know, they come back, you know, just as they did with, you know, they did.
00:36:09.940
So they're not going to say it and we're not going to realize it.
00:36:13.040
But people are, but all these things we're seeing, we're doing all these things without realizing it.
00:36:19.700
I started by saying the Hebrew name for these, these, these spirits are called the Shedim.
00:36:27.800
When you destroy your child, you're destroying your own life.
00:36:32.560
They, they seek self-destruction of a nation, of a, of children, of a culture.
00:36:36.940
So, you know, it's to their advantage that they don't say who they are, you know?
00:36:48.580
And I said, I have a theory I'd like to lay out.
00:36:54.700
Take me half an hour before you, you know, you'll get the gist in half an hour.
00:37:01.860
An hour and a half later, he said, you should get your doctorate of ideas on that.
00:37:05.760
And the idea was that there have been 18 or 19 holocausts, okay, over time.
00:37:14.160
And if you believe in a Satan figure, he's trying to best God.
00:37:22.860
The easiest way to beat God is to make him break a promise.
00:37:31.380
So I think Satan's seeing God make this promise to, what, 300 people in the desert?
00:37:39.860
I'm going to be your people, and I'm going to increase your numbers, and you are my people, okay?
00:37:46.660
If I'm Satan, I'm standing there going, you're kidding me.
00:37:48.960
All I have to do is just kill all these people?
00:37:51.240
And every time it happens, it drags something from the past with it.
00:38:16.180
The Nazi death uniforms were made by Hugo Boss.
00:38:26.160
They were beautiful and majestic, and nobody saw that as a bad thing.
00:38:30.900
Now we see a guy in black boots and a red armband, and we're like, oh, he's not coming back that way this time.
00:38:38.960
And Hitler came in the name of secularism, but it was nothing secular about it.
00:38:42.940
And what you just said to me, if I was an atheist or if I was a Martian, I came to the planet, and I saw how there's this satanic fury against this one people, the Jewish people, that would tell me something right away.
00:38:56.840
So you want to see the reality of evil, the reality of God, and the reality of evil or Satan?
00:39:01.540
And I understand modern ears, well, look, you cannot comprehend the Third Reich without Satan.
00:39:08.440
And why was Hitler so obsessed with the Jewish people above all people?
00:39:16.080
Well, destroy the witnesses that you don't have God.
00:39:18.280
And he said, I'm going to bring you back to the land.
00:39:21.820
So even though he tried to stop it, yeah, I mean, this is one of the big things.
00:39:26.320
There is a link from the time of Abraham to that big time.
00:39:33.180
And when, you know, people don't like to think about Satan, they think that's old fashioned
00:39:40.500
The belief in the Christian values going down in America, according to the latest, but the
00:39:54.100
Satan means the, in Hebrew, Satan, the one who comes against.
00:40:00.120
And the fact that the, of all, of all the people on earth, why this little people who
00:40:04.640
gave the world, the Bible, who gave the world, Jesus, why is there a fury against them?
00:40:14.780
It is the source of real violent antisemitism again.
00:40:22.480
And it, and it goes together because, because the same people who are generally, who are antisemitic
00:40:27.800
generally, not all the time, but in the West, they are also against God.
00:40:31.420
And they're also, again, they're also against the standards of God.
00:40:34.900
And what we are watching right now, I mean, I'm saying, you know, Glenn, this is why I
00:40:39.160
felt I had to write it now because this is, we're all dealing with this now.
00:40:43.100
It's almost like, it's almost like we're in a movie and we say, well, well, you know,
00:40:50.580
Even right now we're focusing on, and you mentioned with children and mutilation, we're focusing
00:40:56.920
We never think we'd get there to, to actually say, if I say there's male and female, that's
00:41:02.860
If I say man and a woman is controversial, how could that be?
00:41:06.060
Well, well, actually one of these, that one of the three, the enchantress is also called
00:41:12.640
And this is so important because this is really behind everything here.
00:41:16.160
And that is, she said in an ancient inscription, she says, I am a woman.
00:41:23.500
One of her hymns says, Oh, you know, Ishtar, Inanna, you, you have the power to turn a man
00:41:33.140
So here is the, here is the principality of the sexual revolution, but this part doesn't
00:41:40.340
It didn't happen when, but as she gets entrenched in culture, now we're dealing with it.
00:41:45.320
And that is, this is the principality that destroys gender, that's that take, that confuses
00:41:50.280
a man with a woman, a woman with a man, and that starts entering our culture.
00:41:56.640
And you, you say that gate was opened here in America by an event at Stonewall, right?
00:42:05.720
We, we didn't talk about this before, but I think it's important.
00:42:09.040
Because when you see, you know, all this, remind people what Stonewall is.
00:42:14.320
And by the way, you listen, listen, we're, as you said, we're all in the same boat.
00:42:17.260
We're praying for everybody, but we got to deal with what we're dealing with because
00:42:20.420
the God, the spirits are against everyone equally.
00:42:22.780
And the thing is that Stonewall was really what launched the whole pride movement, launched
00:42:29.300
New York always begins in New York, you know, New York's the gate, you know.
00:42:32.560
And the thing is that it was a night when basically it was a raid on a same sex bar and
00:42:37.980
The people started charging into the bar to try to break it down with the police inside.
00:42:42.500
They set it on, they tried to set it on fire with the police inside.
00:42:44.900
They began this big riot, which then began the parade, began everything we know today.
00:42:52.540
But the amazing thing that I, that I saw is that all these signs of that goddess who transformed
00:42:59.140
One of them, first of all, one of them, she is the goddess of the gate.
00:43:05.880
She's also the goddess who, of the ale houses or the taverns in, in ancient Sumerian is called
00:43:15.040
At an ale house, at a, at a, at a, at a tavern bar.
00:43:18.600
And then, then it says that on, is there something called the dance of Ishtar?
00:43:23.180
When she's in the middle of a battle, there's a, called a dance.
00:43:26.320
In the middle of a riot, people break out in this dance on the streets of New York city.
00:43:31.180
And they start saying words that go back to the tablets of Ishtar.
00:43:35.860
On top of that, the, the, there is a sign called, I won't go into the detail, but there's
00:43:42.240
When she, she stands on a line, when she goes to battle, that sign was there that night
00:43:47.140
Another thing was, there was a woman who, wait, tell me what that sign was.
00:43:55.620
So the first thing you see, she puts her, she puts her, her foot on the head of the line
00:44:00.700
So the first thing you see is the head, which is into battle.
00:44:02.960
You see the head of a lot right, right after when, when Stonewall opened up right next to
00:44:08.360
it, another bar opened up called the lion's head.
00:44:12.040
And on top of that, there was a woman who triggered the whole, the whole thing.
00:44:16.680
If you, the history is a woman triggered it that night.
00:44:20.700
She was, she was female, like Ishtar was, but Ishtar had male attributes.
00:44:34.280
The name of the woman was storm who started the whole thing.
00:44:38.840
The other thing is that there's an, the, there's an ancient, the Epic of Gilgamesh talks about
00:44:47.660
And it says that it says you Ishtar are the stone that breaks the stone wall, literally
00:44:55.960
And they were trying to break it and that opened the whole thing, break down this wall.
00:44:59.120
And the other thing is that it happened also at the exact time in the ancient pagan calendar
00:45:05.480
linked to Ishtar under the weekend of the full moon of the summer solstice.
00:45:10.140
I mean, there's, there's a whole thing, but the whole thing, it all manifested the night.
00:45:15.940
And it also, it leads to the gay pride parades.
00:45:26.480
And tell me the connection between the parade and the name.
00:45:30.440
I'm going to share something that I don't think I've ever even shared, but for the first part,
00:45:33.020
The, when I looked in the ancient tablets, Ishtar is the goddess of parades.
00:45:38.980
It says she causes men to parade through the city streets, dressed as women, women to parade
00:45:44.860
Her parades were filled with color and with the bending of sexuality, gender and, and
00:45:52.740
So it starts here, but also in Babylon, this is what happened here.
00:45:56.640
There was a gate called the Ishtar gate and all the processions started with Ishtar's
00:46:00.620
So all these processions, as you said, the parades throughout the entire world started
00:46:04.500
in New York city at that bar that, you know, the Ishtar gate had two arches.
00:46:18.660
And I'm not saying anybody knew it, but all the parades started there.
00:46:22.060
And on top of it, um, the, there was one time of the year that this goddess or principality
00:46:29.860
They had all the parades, possession, processions.
00:46:32.580
And I looked for this Glenn, I had to look at the early writings of the first Christians
00:46:37.720
You know, we have a short term memory and it says we don't realize actually there used
00:46:41.460
to be parades and they disappeared with the gospel coming in.
00:46:44.560
And the thing is that, that when I looked in the writings of St.
00:46:47.020
Jerome, he identifies it, the month of the God, the month of the festivals is the month
00:46:56.480
June was the month of the goddess was the month.
00:47:06.140
And not only that, you know, you know, Jesus said the gods, the spirits go back to the house
00:47:15.600
And so this month, that's the month of June is pride.
00:47:28.460
She was, she was, she was the goddess of pride and she's the goddess of altering sexuality.
00:47:33.140
And through the, through the parades and processions and the month, she possessed a culture, drew
00:47:40.860
Glenn, it's not, we're talking about, we're saying it's, this is not natural.
00:47:43.880
Is that, you know, America celebrates one day to celebrate its birth.
00:47:50.300
So do nations around the world, more than their own, their own birthdays.
00:47:53.960
You know, we have, we have this, you know, we, we, we have never done anything like this
00:48:01.380
This is a revival of what, this is what happens when the gods come back.
00:48:04.560
This is what happens when the spirits come back.
00:48:10.100
And, and the other thing is that not only that, but there was a, there was a sign that
00:48:17.680
In the ancient writing, she's called, it says Manzat Ishtar, which means translation,
00:48:30.460
It's in one of her myths, it says she, she wages war by, by stretching across the sky
00:48:39.880
She uses the rainbow actually to exact vengeance.
00:48:45.560
I mean, that's the first thing, you know, but one of the things about this principality,
00:48:49.020
it says she steals things from other gods and makes it her own.
00:48:52.780
She literally has taken the sign of God, you know, and now it's in the face of God.
00:48:57.060
We're putting his, his sign of mercy in the face of God.
00:49:01.560
I mean, that's a dangerous thing that from what I can see.
00:49:04.140
And it's also not natural how the rainbow has spread across our culture.
00:49:07.460
I mean, I mean, it's on children's cereal boxes, you know, it's on, it's on American
00:49:12.780
We never blew flags about anything else, but we're doing it.
00:49:20.100
The idea that your home could be stolen is ridiculous.
00:49:25.200
I mean, you're stealing your phone, your car, I got it.
00:49:31.680
Nobody thinks that I can take their house and borrow against the house.
00:49:40.260
They would call me, you know, what he's calling you?
00:49:43.440
After I've stolen the title, borrowed against it, or sold the property, or done whatever I've
00:49:47.400
done with it, it's 60 to 90 days even figure out that they're the victim of this crime.
00:49:51.900
By that point, you start getting foreclosure notices, and you realize you've got four
00:49:57.580
Not only that, you don't even own your home anymore.
00:50:01.100
Home title fraud is growing two and a half times faster than credit card fraud.
00:50:05.200
You could be a victim right now and not even know it.
00:50:09.620
You can verify your home's title is still in your name for free.
00:50:16.000
You can register your address for a no-obligation home title report, $100 value free.
00:50:34.600
And I know as a dad, if one of my kids is going bad, I don't want my other kid to bash
00:50:51.360
So we, this is why I think it's so important to say, we're fighting principalities.
00:51:02.600
Because people can, they've just lost their mind.
00:51:10.220
You know, Paul, when he speaks to the early church, he says, listen, such were some of
00:51:17.320
But if we don't speak truth, we got to speak truth and love.
00:51:19.520
If we don't speak truth, we are not going to win them.
00:51:23.920
If somebody is dying of something and we don't say something, we're accountable to that.
00:51:28.920
The other thing is that this goddess that says she grinds away the masculinity of men.
00:51:38.340
She will seek to, you know, there's an anti-man, anti-masculine spirit in this culture.
00:51:50.700
So now we have this raging against the quote patriarchy.
00:51:53.780
Her job is to take men away from manhood, men away from marriage, men away from women,
00:52:02.840
And weren't her temple workers, didn't they mutilate themselves and wear dresses?
00:52:11.300
Her priesthood, I put this in the book and it's, you know, and I always want to put in
00:52:16.860
the actual quote so people know we're not making this up.
00:52:19.560
And that is that it says her priests were called the Asinu.
00:52:23.600
And the Asinu were these men who dressed up as women.
00:52:26.460
They walked around her temples in women's clothes, women's makeup.
00:52:30.880
They spoke with women's voices and they basically, it's it.
00:52:35.060
Because one of the tablets says not just you turn, but you dress men as women.
00:52:44.420
This is celebrated by the culture, pagan culture.
00:52:47.040
And they would bring their children to the temples to see the priests, to be influenced by
00:52:58.640
This is the priesthood of the goddess and they don't realize it, but we are bringing
00:53:02.000
children to men dressed up as women to sexualize the children.
00:53:08.780
And the, and the different, one difference, Glenn, is this, you know, Jesus said they come
00:53:13.420
And that is that back then she possessed her, her priesthood.
00:53:16.960
Now she's seeking to take possession of an entire generation of children.
00:53:20.840
And now where our children were once led in the Lord's prayer in school,
00:53:41.200
And you know, Glenn, if we knew, I'm, we're not old enough to, to know, but if we were
00:53:45.240
there when America said, let's just take prayer out of school, you know, and we, and we
00:53:49.200
had known what the Bible really says about this.
00:53:51.320
We could have said, you know, where you're going to be.
00:54:04.160
And, and yet today, if you talk about putting prayer in school, that sounds radical for
00:54:08.220
America, you know, but the thing is that when you take on out, you're going to have all
00:54:19.100
So this is, and not only Glenn, not only was it the clothes you alluded to, but that
00:54:24.420
some of her priests were actually surgically transitioned, literally organs removed and
00:54:34.940
And the thing is that I found one ancient inscription where the priests are dancing.
00:54:42.320
It's actually men who were transitioned are dancing before the goddess with scalpels.
00:54:47.360
And, and they're basically, it's like, they're celebrating their transition.
00:54:50.220
I mean, and now we're trying to do it to children.
00:54:52.700
And even non-believers are saying, what would possess an adult to do this to a child?
00:54:57.100
This would possess an adult to do it to a child.
00:55:06.220
Let me, let me just show you how, see how deep this is that the Supreme court made three
00:55:12.700
rulings that basically transformed sexuality and ultimately marriage.
00:55:15.740
We all remember the day when marriage after what millennia was, you know, struck down.
00:55:20.980
Well, all of these, these decisions, the first one took place in 2003, the last one in 2015
00:55:26.760
marriage and the three of them, the first one took place in the month of June, month of
00:55:31.400
the goddess took place in the last days of June.
00:55:33.880
And that's particularly her time where the time of the summer solstice, the first one
00:55:39.920
The second one in 2012 struck down the defense of marriage act that took place end of June,
00:55:45.040
last days of June, days of the goddess, summer solstice and June 26th, the exact same day.
00:55:50.580
The last one marriage, when it was struck down, as we know it last days of June, summer solstice,
00:55:58.980
The Supreme court is not looking at the Babylonian calendar and they're not saying, you know what,
00:56:05.020
Well, they do release everything in June, but it could be June 26th.
00:56:14.080
I remember, we all remember on that day, that night, the president lit up the White House
00:56:21.880
It's kind of like giving America, we're giving America to that.
00:56:24.420
But that was the day, that day on the ancient calendar of Babylon and the Bible, it was
00:56:29.760
called, it was the, it was the 10th day of Tammuz.
00:56:36.100
And by the way, it was one of the lovers who she destroyed is Tammuz, but that's the month
00:56:40.360
And so it, and I looked at the ancient Babylonian calendar.
00:56:42.800
It said, the 10th of Tammuz is appointed to cast a spell to cause a man to love a man.
00:56:50.560
That was the day the Supreme Court changed marriage on the day.
00:56:55.040
And they don't know about the calendar and they're not looking, they're not looking at
00:56:58.820
That was the day, but it's exact, it's like clockwork.
00:57:01.940
Spend two or three minutes on Moloch because we touched on him, but he's the final one,
00:57:10.280
Except well, well, yeah, he, he's the, he's the, he's the final one in, in his entrance,
00:57:16.220
But, but right now, what I would say, I mean, and, and notice what the culture is,
00:57:20.560
it's focusing on abortion, the war over abortion over children and this war of a gender.
00:57:29.640
And, and back then the children were sexualized in the same way there, they were abused.
00:57:34.120
It wasn't safe to be a child when the gods are elite.
00:57:37.460
I mean, I think you go even further than this, what we're doing on the border, we are turning
00:57:42.560
a blind eye to sex slavery with children in unbelievable numbers, unbelievable numbers.
00:57:53.600
And, and you notice it all goes together there.
00:57:55.800
They're at the same time, the culture is seeking beginning to, to start to try to, to
00:58:02.700
It's beginning, you know, but that's what happens when, that's what happens when you
00:58:05.960
destroy marriage, that there's no more protection.
00:58:08.120
And that's what happens when you go back to paganism because the children were sexualized.
00:58:11.600
The children were made into prostitutes back then.
00:58:17.360
I'll, I'll tell you something that I don't say if it's okay, uh, Glenn, um, not often, um,
00:58:22.380
when I was working on the book, that's linked to Moloch, when I was working on the book
00:58:25.780
and I didn't tell anybody, you know, and I'm a pastor, you know, and I have associate pastors
00:58:30.660
and, and one of them who never ever would talk to me like this, he said, Jonathan, he
00:58:35.080
says, I was woken up in the morning and I had this like a vision.
00:58:40.200
And I said, I said, I said, I don't know what it means, but I knew it was for you.
00:58:44.500
He said, I saw you bringing, bringing forth a word and, and all, all in front of you were
00:58:49.780
all these altars of these gods, all these altars of the gods.
00:58:53.500
As you brought forth the word, the altars started breaking apart.
00:59:06.700
It's the return of the gods, all that, the altars, by the way, you know, I want to say
00:59:10.740
something about that, Glenn, um, but the altars, you know, we talk, all the gods had altars.
00:59:14.520
So talk about the greatest altar we have right now is that of abortion, you know, where we actually
00:59:20.620
So the, cause the gods always demand blood or destruction, Shadim.
00:59:25.100
And so, so the altars are over there, but I'll tell you something that happened.
00:59:36.260
That was the date that the Supreme court overturned Roe versus Wade.
00:59:41.140
So the thing is that to me, you know, I take this as a, you know, I know, listen, that we
00:59:45.760
know that's not the end of abortion, but we know it's major.
00:59:48.020
And that is that we've already saved, I think like 60,000 children per year, you know?
00:59:52.380
Um, but the thing is that in the Bible, you know, when you had revival, you know, cause
00:59:57.400
I mean, you know, without revival, America's lost, but we in the same with Israel, what happened
01:00:02.420
But the thing is the side of revival wasn't a gospel crusade tent.
01:00:09.840
And so this is a sign, I believe from God of encouragement to us that, listen, listen,
01:00:17.420
God has the last word and there is, there can be revival, but we have to pray.
01:00:23.420
Like, like when I was on the program with you and I was so blessed, I never heard anybody
01:00:26.800
do this calling for national prayer and fasting for exorcism, you know, like not just
01:00:34.860
I was like, when I'm writing, I say, why don't we pray for the, for the release of
01:00:38.540
America, exorcism of America for the, for the spirit to come in.
01:00:42.420
So there is hope, you know, though, you know, though, I always, I'll tell you, I talked to
01:00:47.560
a, uh, uh, Catholic priest who is an exorcist and he said, uh, I, you know, I talked to him
01:00:56.540
a little bit about your book and he said, it's what's happening.
01:01:02.140
And he said, what I see one-on-one is happening throughout society.
01:01:10.200
And, and he said, and I, I told him, I said, I'm thinking about calling for prayer and
01:01:16.120
fast because that's what the, the, um, apostles came to Jesus and said, how come you can get
01:01:26.440
And he said, cause it doesn't happen without prayer and fasting.
01:01:30.300
Oh, that was, that was so, I was so, I've never heard anybody do that.
01:01:32.760
And I, I, when I was working on the book, I'm feeling like I'm feeling a burden because
01:01:37.900
I mean, people have prayed to fast for people, but for an entire culture to get delivered
01:01:42.120
in whatever, whatever manner, whatever we are right now, it doesn't matter.
01:01:46.740
And again, I was an atheist, you know, I became a believer because of God, but there are people
01:01:54.720
We're, we're, you're, you're, your family's dealing with it.
01:01:58.820
And one of the things that I say is that, that to know is that this is a war, it's a spiritual
01:02:05.220
But, you know, remember that when the gods were driven out or the spirits were driven
01:02:09.720
out of, of Western civilization, it was by believers.
01:02:22.660
They're, they're targeting Christians, the gods, the spirits, because they want to get, as they
01:02:28.220
were cast out, they want believers to be cast out of the society.
01:02:31.180
As the word drove them out, they want the word out.
01:02:33.420
You know, as their worship was kind of ended, they want the, the worship, religious freedom
01:02:40.860
We're in a, and the other, another thing about it is, is that, you know, you know, the, the
01:02:45.380
ones of Rome that really defeated the gods or the spirits, it was the children.
01:02:49.440
Because back then it was the children who came to the gospel.
01:02:55.860
So now they're seeking to get the children to cast God out, to exercise God from the culture.
01:03:01.580
So we're dealing with a real battle, but I want to, and the other thing is, I want to
01:03:06.760
But one thing is, is that when the gods come in first or the spirits, they always come in
01:03:10.840
in the name of tolerance, openness, do your own thing.
01:03:13.760
You know, everybody, that's how it was in the sixties.
01:03:15.920
That's, but that's only a strategy to get in the door of a Christian civilization.
01:03:19.960
So they did, but once they start like getting a foothold, once they do, then, then all tolerance
01:03:28.580
It turns from tolerant culture to a cancel culture.
01:03:33.980
Remember when, when Baal took over the culture of Israel under Ahab and Jezebel, it was every
01:03:40.580
And, and all of a sudden believers are now a counterculture are now they have to stand stronger
01:03:48.400
So it's, if you don't, it's to cancel you, silence you, de-platform you, you know, whatever
01:03:56.700
Um, because this, this, I believe can be our greatest hour.
01:04:00.740
And I want to say something that I have not, Glenn, I've not said, I don't, I've said it
01:04:05.200
at our congregation, but just to, just to, um, point something out.
01:04:10.480
A little while back, um, Biden had a gathering at the white house and he enshrined basically same
01:04:17.020
sex marriage into federal law for the first time.
01:04:19.280
And, you know, and he did that and said, everyone has to recognize this.
01:04:25.020
Now, now listen, we love people, but we, we can't recognize what's in, but yeah.
01:04:28.880
And you know, and he lit up the white house again with a rainbow, you know, that the day
01:04:33.060
when he lit it up the night, when he lit up the white house, it was, I have the, I believe
01:04:38.340
Now, interesting because there's only one day in the Bible that God, God's for marriage,
01:04:42.360
but there's only one day he says, I can't recognize this.
01:04:44.900
I can't recognize this marriage in, in, it's the book of Ezra.
01:04:49.980
He said that on the 20th of kiss love, the day that was the respect for marriage act.
01:04:57.180
So it's, it's, it's telling you that God has the last word, you know?
01:05:01.080
And, and the thing is that, you know, as a believer, I'm actually, even though this is
01:05:04.980
a warning, cause we have to know what we're dealing with.
01:05:07.020
We have to know what we're fighting because if you don't know, you're not going to win.
01:05:13.540
We do have a higher power and that there's only one true God and, and the others are,
01:05:19.880
But if we don't do anything, like we were saying, like, you know, if a lot of times the
01:05:23.940
people who are silent are the people who should be the most vocal, the pastor should be,
01:05:27.960
the minister should be the most, but many of them are silent.
01:05:31.340
They say, well, I don't want to, I don't want to get in trouble.
01:05:40.100
Look at every single, I think everything, every single one of the apostles died, except
01:05:55.060
I read the most punk rock thing you can do is go to church.
01:06:04.320
In many ways, that's more biblical than what we've known.
01:06:06.860
Because, you know, you know, many people who are watching probably say, I pray, I wish
01:06:14.240
Because for most of Bible times, you didn't have a Christian culture.
01:06:21.200
You know, that, you know, you know, the, the, the gods are not a new thing.
01:06:25.900
They're back and they're back in a new way, but they're not a new, you know, Moses, you
01:06:30.940
The Bible says, Elijah stood against Baal, you know, you know, Paul stood against the
01:06:35.180
Now it's our turn, you know, and, and we have to, we have to be, we have to be what we are
01:06:39.920
You know, we have to move from a, we're not a cultural phenomenon.
01:06:42.660
We're a counter-cultural phenomenon, which is really always what we were supposed to be.
01:06:46.200
But this, this, I believe, you know, when the grays are disappearing, it's time for,
01:06:51.720
And it's kind of like, if the, if the dark is removing the gray to get even darker, the
01:06:56.540
light has to remove the gray to get even lighter.
01:06:58.960
These are the times we have to shine even brighter.
01:07:04.320
I grew up in Seattle, 310 cloudy days out of the year.
01:07:08.940
I moved to Phoenix, not a cloud in the sky ever.
01:07:12.780
And I remember one of the first days I was there, I stood outside and I just watched
01:07:20.100
the shadow that I was casting because it was so dark and crisp.
01:07:28.400
I had always seen kind of just like a shadow here on the table, just barely there, you know,
01:07:34.720
And I, and I've taken that lesson my whole life as only when the light is getting brighter
01:07:43.860
does, is the shadow more defined and seemingly darker.
01:07:55.480
And that, and that, that, yeah, that an encouragement that the, you know, there's kind of been a
01:08:00.980
gray Christianity because when everybody's Christian, it doesn't necessarily mean something.
01:08:08.460
It means more than it has ever meant now to follow, follow God, follow Jesus.
01:08:12.940
It's going to cost, but it's going to be, it's more important than ever.
01:08:15.780
You know, the candle in the daytime, you barely see it.
01:08:18.380
The candle at night literally lights up the world and that's what we're supposed to be.
01:08:21.800
We're supposed to, you know, and the other thing, you said something very interesting
01:08:24.640
because as you said it, I thought, okay, well, the light's getting brighter, but the light's
01:08:28.540
coming, you know, you know, you know, we're getting closer to that.
01:08:31.120
You know, when, when, when Hitler, when all hell broke loose on the world, Israel was
01:08:35.260
coming, the prophecies were coming, all that was coming.
01:08:40.300
You know, we, we, you know, Jesus called the lamb of God.
01:08:45.860
And the thing is that, so this is to be, you know, this, by the way, Christians have
01:09:01.120
And the thing is, this is going to separate, you know, like, yeah, it takes a little bit
01:09:04.260
more to stand for God when it's not popular, but it means so much more.
01:09:10.500
It says the eyes of the Lord search the entire earth, looking for the one whose heart is his
01:09:15.140
He'll lift that one up and we have to be that one.
01:09:17.820
And so this could be our most exciting hour, but we got to live.
01:09:19.900
And the other thing is that if there's anything in our life that is, you know, gray, you know,
01:09:26.560
But the thing, the thing about it is that when you hear all these stories, like, like
01:09:30.060
the great testimonies or people who hid Jews during, you know, during Hitler, it's the
01:09:34.620
dark that actually increased the light, you know, because it makes, it makes you radical
01:09:38.800
because you can say, listen, you have to choose.
01:09:41.440
Because at times of great peril, there's nobody on the sidelines.
01:09:49.360
You might say I'm sitting on the sidelines, but you're not, you're fighting for the other
01:09:54.740
It's kind of like you were standing and the, and the ground is going, going this way and
01:09:58.720
But if you make the right decision, you're going to be lifted up.
01:10:03.520
And listen, the other thing is the Bible says is all going to happen.
01:10:06.540
You know, I mean, the Bible does say that, that I got saved because I was reading the
01:10:10.300
prophecies of the Bible said, wow, it's coming true.
01:10:11.940
But Bible says that in the last days, men will be lovers of self.
01:10:19.360
There's a mystery that kind of like the age comes to its conclusion, the way it began.
01:10:24.500
Then when Jesus came, Israel back, there were Jewish believers.
01:10:32.380
It hasn't been for 2000 years, you know, but also the culture, the culture was, was pagan.
01:10:38.180
So actually it is actually, actually what we're watching is actually the return.
01:10:42.620
So if the world's going back to where it was, it's time that the church go back to where
01:10:47.120
it was, which was the book of Acts, the most powerful church.
01:10:50.580
You know, we may not have all the praise of the world and we may not have the riches of
01:10:57.940
And it's, I've always tried to really understand and the foolish shall confound the wise.
01:11:09.540
It's so clear now, all the wise, all of the elites, all of the book learned people, they're
01:11:22.880
And I mean, it's, it's, it's the meek shall inherit the, or all of this stuff is coming.
01:11:31.100
It says in the same thing you quoted from first, the foolishness of God will confound
01:11:36.680
And the thing is that how are they, so how do they not know that there's male and female
01:11:40.080
I mean, I mean, you know, you know, two or three year olds know that how come the Nobel
01:11:45.140
It's foolishness, but it tells you how real this is, you know, and that how wise it is to
01:11:49.140
follow the foolishness of God, you know, the cross is wiser, you know, and, and
01:11:57.120
We're on the right track, you know, and we got to be strong, you know, go all out, go
01:12:02.180
And I truly believe this could be our greatest moment.
01:12:04.020
Cause I, I always would love to have lived in the book of Acts.
01:12:06.720
It's back, you know, we're back, you know, you know, the dark is back, but so is the
01:12:11.400
So this, this could be the greatest time for us, but we have to rise to it and you got to
01:12:14.740
know what you're fighting, you know, and don't be timid about goodness.
01:12:18.760
Don't be, be strong in love, but listen, this is our hour.
01:12:21.280
The other thing I just, last night I thought of is that what's the most exciting, you
01:12:27.480
So, so listen, you know, listen, God chose us for the last 15 minutes.
01:12:30.940
You know, if you didn't want us here, don't fear it because if you didn't want us here,
01:12:34.080
you know, he would have put us in the middle, middle ages.
01:12:36.880
And that means, and you know, the greatest part of the movie is when there's a lot of
01:12:40.840
Listen, that that's the, that's the ground to shine, to shine for the Lord.
01:12:47.360
He was not old enough for most of world war two.
01:12:58.000
He was not part of anything in the sixties, both good or bad.
01:13:02.940
He was just kind of, you know, and I thought he lived at the zenith of American clout and
01:13:16.340
I wonder who he would have been had he lived in my time now, because they didn't have, there
01:13:27.020
But for the most part, everybody else was like, well, yeah, there's no anymore.
01:13:32.760
And you're either going to be, you're either going to give your grandchildren the greatest
01:13:40.240
gift when they stand up and talk about history, that when those times came, my grandparents
01:13:47.520
stood and did this, or when they're in history class, they're not want, they're not going
01:13:56.080
to want to say anything because it's very much like Germany is now.
01:14:02.480
And the thing is, it's, it's, you know, most people go with the majority, but you know what?
01:14:07.900
It happened to be better in the past, you know, but it's not right now.
01:14:11.380
You got to stand for God, but, but I will just as an encouragement to everybody watching,
01:14:23.440
Get right with whatever you have to do, do it because your God is real.
01:14:27.280
Jesus is the Lord above all Lords, the God above all gods.
01:14:32.700
The name of the book is The Return of the Gods available everywhere.
01:14:36.420
