Summary
The evangelical church has been a tyrant for about 60 years in the United States of America. We're very aware that the state can be a tyrant, but the evangelical Church has been one of the most oppressive institutions in America for a good portion of that time. In order to maintain control over the state, the church needs to learn to be more like God.

All right, listen, guys, I get it. Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry
00:00:04.640
because you're spending your cash and your lives on raising young children in the fear and
00:00:09.540
admonition of the Lord. Praise God for you and that endeavor. However, algorithms are a thing.
00:00:16.240
Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing. And one major way that you can help to expand the reach and
00:00:22.540
effectiveness of this ministry that doesn't cost you a dime is by spending just a few moments
00:00:28.080
leaving us a five-star review. Also, perhaps even more effective than that, you can share
00:00:34.640
our podcast with a friend. We hope you'll take the time to do so. Thank you so much. God bless.
00:00:42.240
Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the
00:00:46.940
mouth of God. You're listening to Daily Truth. We're very, very aware that the state can be a
00:00:54.920
tyrant. But the evangelical church has been a tyrant for about 60 years in America. And what
0.57
00:01:02.640
I mean by tyrant is I don't mean a tyrant in your typical Machiavellian totalitarian sense.
00:01:10.260
I don't mean that. What I mean is a tyrant in terms of time.
00:01:15.300
your time is being stolen from you on both sides the state is taking your time
00:01:24.900
by virtue of making you work more hours to cover their large taxes
00:01:29.660
and then they take your time by taking your kids which you give to them for the record
00:01:35.360
but they take your kids and not only do they take 40 hours a week
00:01:39.880
but then how many state programs are your kids enlisted in you've got one act play
00:01:46.200
you've got football you've got basketball you've got debate you've got all these different things
00:01:55.960
year round one sport ends another one starts and that's just at the state level and the public
00:02:03.020
school falls under that category, state. And then you got the church. You got Wednesday night.
00:02:11.240
Maybe there's a Thursday night. There's a mom's prayer meeting. And some of those moms are kind
00:02:17.980
of judgy if I don't show up. There's this and there's that. There's that. And there's this.

And then the pastor has the audacity to correct the dads in the room for not leading their families
00:03:08.560
The Lord's Day, not the Lord's Hour, the Lord's Day.
00:03:21.020
But I do encourage you, Sunday morning, Sunday evening,
00:03:26.220
God has sustained in his providence and sovereignty,
00:03:28.820
he has sustained his church for 2,000 years of church history, predominantly through the Lord's
00:03:34.120
Day gathering of the saints, and not just for an hour and a half, but a full day. Can I be frank
00:03:38.540
with you for just a second right here at the end? Look, some of you guys, you're financially
00:03:43.060
supporting this ministry, and from the bottom of my heart, I say thank you. I cannot thank you
00:03:48.920
enough. However, some of you, you just, you can't afford it. In fact, some of you, you shouldn't
00:03:55.840
afford it. Let's be honest. I mean, we're living in Joe Biden's ridiculous economy. Our nation
00:04:02.760
and our totalitarian political elites lost their minds over the last three years due to COVID.
00:04:11.540
We have written checks that we simply cannot cash. It doesn't matter if people change the
00:04:17.580
definition of a recession. We are living in a recession right now, regardless. Some of you
00:04:24.340
are struggling to afford a carton of eggs at the grocery store. You cannot support financially this
00:04:31.200
ministry at this time, nor should you, but you could still help us tremendously. I am asking you,
00:04:38.900
please, if you're willing to do so, take one minute of your time. Leave us a five-star review
00:04:45.040
on your favorite podcast platform, iTunes, Spotify, whatever that might be. This is the way the system
00:04:52.060
works. We want to be innocent as doves, but shrewd as vipers. We need to be strategic.
00:04:58.840
You leave us a five-star review, and our podcast shows up for more people. And the Word of God
00:05:04.880
and courageous theology applied in practical ways to every realm of life
00:05:11.000
gets out there. Help us get it out there. Thanks for tuning in.
