Summary
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.

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.
00:00:55.460
I'm on nobody's side because no one is on my side.
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.
00:01:31.780
And if God doesn't mercifully intervene and save them,
1.00
00:01:36.320
But when I look at Israel and I look at Ukraine,
0.93
00:01:44.640
Israel's not a bastion of Judeo-Christian values,
00:02:05.680
I'm on nobody's side because nobody's on my side.
00:02:16.920
if we're talking about any nation except for ours.
00:02:20.920
with some billions to Ukraine, billions to Israel.
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.
00:02:45.820
I'm on no one's side because nobody's on my side.
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
