The church needs to wake up and wake up to the fact that no one is on their side. I like to think that by the grace of God, that the church is like the Ents. The Ents look around and they say, "I'm on nobody's side, I'm not on Gandalf's side or Saruman's side." I'm on no one's side because no one else is on my side. And that's what we need to do.

00:00:23.480 five-star review on your favorite podcast platform. Thanks.
00:00:27.500 I like to think that by the grace of God, that the church is like the Ents, the march of the Ents.
00:00:35.160 You're like the Ents. What scripture is that? It's Tolkien, talking about the two towers,
00:00:44.460 Isengard. And the Ents, they look around and they say, I'm on nobody's side.
00:00:52.260 I'm not on Gandalf's side or Saruman. 0.99
00:00:55.460 I'm on nobody's side because no one is on my side.
00:01:00.260 And that's how I feel in this given moment.
00:01:04.100 Right, Russia and Ukraine. 0.95
00:01:06.060 I'm on nobody's side.
00:01:09.140 I'm not a fan of Putin. 0.97
00:01:10.500 I think he's a war thug. 0.88
00:01:13.040 I'm sure as heck not a fan of Ukraine. 0.91
00:01:15.320 I think they're the money purse 0.92
00:01:17.700 of the most corrupt politicians in the entire world. 0.96
00:01:21.260 I feel somewhat similar about Israel and Palestine.
00:01:27.560 I'm no fan of Hamas. 1.00
00:01:29.400 They're Islamic terrorists. 1.00
00:01:31.780 And if God doesn't mercifully intervene and save them, 1.00
00:01:33.980 they're going to hell. 0.95
00:01:36.320 But when I look at Israel and I look at Ukraine, 0.93
00:01:39.520 I feel like I'm looking at the same picture.
00:01:44.640 Israel's not a bastion of Judeo-Christian values,
00:01:48.080 which is an oxymoron. 0.86
00:01:49.260 Israel, like America,
00:01:51.260 I'm not trying to just pick on them.
00:01:53.440 It's a bastion of the rainbow flag. 1.00
00:01:57.840 Exporting perversion around the world. 1.00
00:02:05.680 I'm on nobody's side because nobody's on my side.
00:02:10.260 Nobody's on my side.
00:02:11.500 Nobody's on America's side.
00:02:14.980 Right?
00:02:15.560 We're all Christian nationalists
00:02:16.920 if we're talking about any nation except for ours.
00:02:20.400 Right?
00:02:20.920 with some billions to Ukraine, billions to Israel.
00:02:24.660 You can be a Christian nationalist
00:02:25.820 if we're talking about being a Zionist.
00:02:27.760 You can be a Christian nationalist
00:02:28.900 if you're talking about this place or that place or anywhere. 0.78
00:02:31.480 But you can't ever do anything for your own people.
00:02:35.700 Nobody's on your side, brothers and sisters.
00:02:37.460 You just need to wake up to that.
00:02:38.940 You need to know that.
00:02:39.860 Get it deep in your bones.
00:02:41.760 Wake up.
00:02:42.620 Nobody's on your side.
00:02:45.820 I'm on no one's side because nobody's on my side.
00:02:48.340 But here's what the ints eventually do.
00:02:50.920 eventually they get kind of tricked by these little tiny hobbits and they get just close
00:02:59.900 enough to Isengard to see how terrible Saruman actually is. They get woken up kind of like a 0.97
00:03:10.760 2020, 2021, 2022 kind of situation. They get awakened to see how bad trash world really is, 0.61
00:03:18.220 how bad clown world really is that the world the unbelieving world they're not actually neutral 1.00
00:03:23.840 they're not willing to coexist they're not willing to go along to get along they actually want to 1.00
00:03:29.100 take your children destroy your lives they hate every biblical principle and then what happens
00:03:36.620 is that when the ins get close enough to isengard to see what saruman has done uprooting other trees
00:03:43.240 their friends and burning them. Then all of a sudden they go into a righteous rage.
00:03:51.280 The church needs to be angry today. Righteously angry. Jesus is meek and mild. We want to look
00:04:01.000 like him, but he's not only meek and mild. John chapter two, Jesus was fashioning a whip with
00:04:07.620 cords he was throwing over the money changers tables releasing all the livestock and whipping
00:04:15.880 out these thieves out of his father's house get out of here don't desecrate my father's house
00:04:24.460 my father's house is not a den of thieves but it is a house of prayer for all nations
00:04:30.060 and i believe that as difficult as things have been there is not only a silver lining i think
00:04:39.600 it's more than just that it's an incredible mercy in the providence of god that people
00:04:45.160 are waking up the temperature slowly turned up on the boiling pot of water so the frogs are
00:04:51.920 eventually boiled alive they they never they never realize how hot it's getting they never
00:04:57.380 jump out of the pot but but in 2020 these last three years since then what trash world has done
00:05:04.500 is they got a little cocky and they they thought you know what we're already close enough we can
00:05:10.420 just we could just finish it up and they turned up the knob suddenly and a lot of frogs stayed in
00:05:17.140 the water because their nerve endings were already shot but a few that still had a little breath in
00:05:23.140 their lungs, felt the temperature rise for the first time and realized this isn't a party in a
00:05:29.200 hot tub. This is dinner. And they jumped out and they're starting to fight back like the Ents
00:05:36.520 seeing what Saruman was actually up to. And the Ents will now go to war. The church is a sleeping
00:05:43.540 giant. The church is the most powerful, formidable force in all the world, in all human history.
00:05:53.140 it's not a singular nation it's not a military it is the church of jesus christ it is the
00:05:59.320 battering ram of christ and the gates of hell will not prevail against it but she has to wake
00:06:05.180 up she has to wake up and in the mercy of god i believe she is and she's a sleeping giant and when
00:06:14.100 she rouses from her slumber and i would argue it's not just a 60 year slumber from the sexual
00:06:20.880 revolution of the 1960s. It's not just a boomer slumber. It's not even just 120 or 130 years.
00:06:29.660 I think it's a slumber that's been going on for a long time. I would track it back at least
00:06:34.240 to the enlightenment. But I do believe that by the grace of God, this sleeping giant can wake
00:06:41.520 once more.
00:06:50.880 We'll be right back.
