00:00:00.000 All right, listen, guys, I get it.
00:00:01.900 Many of you are unable to financially support this ministry because you're spending your
00:00:05.900 cash and your lives on raising young children in the fear and admonition of the Lord.
00:00:10.740 Praise God for you and that endeavor.
00:00:13.860 However, algorithms are a thing.
00:00:16.380 Shadow banning, sadly, is a thing.
00:00:19.000 And one major way that you can help to expand the reach and effectiveness of this ministry
00:00:24.160 that doesn't cost you a dime is by spending just a few moments leaving us a five-star
00:00:29.980 review. Also, perhaps even more effective than that, you can share our podcast with a friend.
00:00:36.560 We hope you'll take the time to do so. Thank you so much. God bless.
00:00:42.320 Jesus said, man cannot live on bread alone, but from every word that proceeds from the mouth of
00:00:47.420 God. You're listening to Daily Truth. An ecclesiocracy is a conflation of two independent,
00:00:56.860 autonomous sovereign spheres, namely church and state. Ecclesiocracy seeks to blend those two,
00:01:03.220 conflate them together. That is not biblical. That's not what anyone is arguing for. An
00:01:08.440 ecclesiocracy would be a church-run state. A theocracy is a God-run state. Separation of church 0.76
00:01:16.560 and state. Amen. The scepter was given to Judah and the priesthood to Levi. 0.72
00:01:22.340 even in the first book of the bible we see god separating designating separately these duties
00:01:30.540 of church and state civil rulership judah the scepter given to them and the priestly functions
00:01:36.880 the church given to levi the separation of church and state is perfectly biblical and i advocate
00:01:42.840 for it strongly but brothers and sisters there is night and day difference between the separation
00:01:48.740 of church and state and the separation of christ and state every state every nation every government
00:01:59.200 is theocratic ecclesiocracy no thank you no protestant pope theocracy it's not whether but
00:02:08.860 which you have no choice in the matter it will be theocratic we currently our nation has a god
00:02:16.840 and the particular god that we have with whatever god you have that god will have
00:02:22.080 a corresponding orthodoxy and anything outside of that orthodoxy which is set by your god
00:02:30.660 anything outside of that is what you would consider blasphemy so there are certain things
00:02:36.400 you cannot say because it's not keeping in step with the reigning orthodoxy which has been set
00:02:42.820 by that nation's designated god not whether but which they have a god now with that not only does
00:02:50.420 the god then dictate orthodoxy everything outside of that being blasphemy but also all religions
00:02:57.180 and atheism is a religion secular humanism is a religion darwinism is a religion and it takes far
00:03:04.560 more nonsensical illogical faith to believe those false religions than it does to believe the true
00:03:11.720 christian religion but every religion not only does it have a god an orthodoxy outside of
00:03:17.660 orthodoxy therefore being blasphemy but they also have sacraments our nation currently the sacraments
00:03:25.040 is the blood of babies and the murder of 65 million plus children and it's far more than that 0.53
00:03:33.820 and another sacrament is a sexual revolution perversion
00:03:41.240 now we often make the correlation with planned parenthood to
00:03:47.780 molek a false god child sacrifice but another correlation that's a helpful one
00:03:57.360 that Gerhardus Vos talks about is the Asherah poles. 0.97
00:04:04.700 Molech, child sacrifice, think abortion. 0.87
00:04:08.200 The Asherah poles were once fruitful trees. 0.97
00:04:13.120 Trees have branches.
00:04:16.520 But the Asherah poles were stripped of their branches 1.00
00:04:19.920 down to a naked, bare pole.
00:04:23.440 The branches and their ability to be fruitful is dismantled.
00:04:30.620 They become lifeless, fruitless, androgynous. 0.99
00:04:38.620 Molech, abortion. 1.00
00:04:41.120 Asherah, transgenderism. 1.00
00:04:44.960 Sexual mutilation. 1.00
00:04:48.180 All fruitfulness ripped away. 0.92
00:04:50.800 a shell of a person a pole where a tree once stood
00:04:57.400 we have sacraments not whether but which we have orthodoxy not whether but which
00:05:05.040 we have blasphemy laws not whether but which because we have a god not just a private god
00:05:12.560 for private individuals in their private lives but there is always a public god of every public
00:05:19.300 nation. They're all theocratic. Not whether, but which. Greg Bonson had an old speech,
00:05:30.940 and a portion of that, about two and a half minutes long, has circulated and gone viral
00:05:36.120 on the internet several times over the last few decades. But it's him responding to Westminster
00:05:42.400 Escondido, which is a Presbyterian seminary known for their radical two-kingdom theology.
00:05:49.300 very pietistic everything is private no public christianity and he's responding to them right
00:05:58.580 after they tried to essentially silence him and fire him and remove him and dismiss him and
00:06:05.120 humiliate him for his stance on christian ethics general equity theonomy theonomy simply being a
00:06:12.500 word for god's law and in this clip i can't repeat it for you verbatim but essentially what he says
00:06:21.200 is this he says we have millions of children being murdered in the womb and you're concerned
00:06:28.960 about theonomy you have to lock your windows at night and you're concerned about theonomy
00:06:36.760 children are being shot in schools and you're worried about theonomy
00:06:43.200 sodomy is being publicly praised in the streets of our nation and you're concerned
00:06:51.060 and worried about theonomy brothers and sisters this was this was 20 30 years ago
00:06:57.660 what do you think bonson would say today do you know why churches like ours are growing
00:07:04.920 do you know why people signed up and sold out six months in advance the theonomy
00:07:12.560 and post-millennialism conference do you know why christian nationalism was trending
00:07:18.840 on google two days ago partly because of my twitter account that's part of it i certainly
00:07:27.600 helped helped to get into that spot but beyond just my own personal obsession um you know why
00:07:34.220 these things are on the rise people are considered because the world has gone insane can i be frank
00:07:41.900 with you for just a second right here at the end look some of you guys you're financially supporting
00:07:46.960 this ministry and from the bottom of my heart i say thank you i cannot thank you enough however
00:07:53.940 some of you you just you can't afford it in fact some of you you shouldn't afford it let's be
00:08:00.860 honest. I mean, we're living in Joe Biden's ridiculous economy. Our nation and our totalitarian 0.98
00:08:08.260 political elites lost their minds over the last three years due to COVID. We have written checks
00:08:16.480 that we simply cannot cash. It doesn't matter if people change the definition of a recession.
00:08:22.400 We are living in a recession right now, regardless. Some of you are struggling to afford a carton of
00:08:30.060 eggs at the grocery store. You cannot support financially this ministry at this time, nor should
00:08:37.020 you, but you could still help us tremendously. I am asking you, please, if you're willing to do so,
00:08:44.340 take one minute of your time. Leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform,
00:08:51.020 iTunes, Spotify, whatever that might be. This is the way the system works. We want to be innocent
00:08:57.300 as doves, but shrewd as vipers. We need to be strategic. You leave us a five-star review and
00:09:04.460 our podcast shows up for more people. And the Word of God and courageous theology applied in
00:09:11.940 practical ways to every realm of life gets out there. Help us get it out there. Thanks for tuning in.
