00:00:00.000 Leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform.
00:00:03.960 I get it.
00:00:04.620 It's annoying.
00:00:05.380 Everybody asks, but I'm going to tell you why.
00:00:07.660 When you give us a positive review, what that does is it triggers the algorithm so that
00:00:12.440 our podcast shows up on more people's news feeds.
00:00:16.280 You and I both know that this ministry is willing to talk about things that most ministries
00:00:20.820 aren't.
00:00:21.860 We need this content for the glory of God to reach more people's ears.
00:00:30.000 it's been a brutal week. Charlie Kirk is just confirmed to be shot. We're hearing from certain
00:00:39.020 sources conflicting reports. Some have said that he is being stabilized. He was shot in the neck
00:00:47.080 and others have said that there's no way he would survive. One source is saying that he's confirmed
00:00:54.100 dead. At the time of this live broadcast, it's still unclear to the state of his life. The
00:01:01.720 scripture is clear not to pray for the dead, but Charlie may be alive and we don't know. We're not
00:01:07.900 omniscient. And so I'm going to begin this episode by praying. Please join me. Father, thank you for
00:01:14.280 Charlie Kirk. Thank you that he is or was a Christian, that he believed in your son Jesus
00:01:21.360 Christ as the only atonement for sin. Not just for sin as an abstract entity or sinful people
00:01:30.080 who do bad things in the world, but he believed that Jesus Christ is the Savior, the Lamb of God,
00:01:38.060 whose blood was shed for his sin. Charlie believed that. So we thank you for that first and foremost,
00:01:44.660 that if he does die that he spends eternity in bliss and peace and in joy with you where there
00:01:53.520 is no more sin where there is no more gay race communism there are no more crazy leftists that
00:02:02.640 hate christians transgenders with assault weapons that shoot up christian and catholic schools
00:02:12.840 We thank you for that.
00:02:15.220 But Father, we do pray that if it be your will,
00:02:18.320 assuming that he's still alive,
00:02:20.520 that you spare his life.
00:02:22.700 Father, we pray that you would spare the life of Charlie Kirk.
00:02:27.440 And if it be your will that he should pass,
00:02:31.380 Lord, please comfort his loved ones,
00:02:33.980 his wife, his young child,
00:02:38.720 brand new child,
00:02:39.700 all his friends extended family members and lord i pray that you would use this
00:02:47.180 as a powerful motivation for christians especially and others on the political and
00:02:55.820 cultural right not to be violent but to be wise to be shrewd and to be uncompromising and
00:03:05.300 unapologetic for your truth, for the principles and the truths that built this country, this
00:03:13.980 Christian country with a Christian origin. And Lord, I also pray for our civil magistrate,
00:03:20.520 for President Donald J. Trump and also Vice President Vance. We know that
00:03:27.540 although they were elected democratically, that nothing happens apart from your providence
00:03:34.800 and your sovereignty. So you, by virtue of the people of the United States, you have appointed
00:03:43.260 Donald Trump, and you have appointed him, according to Romans chapter 13, to be your deacon,
00:03:50.240 your minister of justice, an avenger, the Bible says, towards those who do evil.
00:03:58.880 and you have granted him the sword.
00:04:02.920 Your word says in Romans 13
00:04:05.080 that a righteous civil magistrate
00:04:08.400 is to be a terror to those who do evil.
00:04:12.080 Lord, I pray that by your grace
00:04:14.820 that our president, his administration,
00:04:19.380 law enforcement, the National Guard,
00:04:23.200 all those who have been appointed to positions
00:04:26.720 to keep the peace and to fight evil, both domestic and abroad, Lord, that you would
00:04:33.480 empower them, strengthen their resolve, train their fingers for war, and that, Lord, they would
00:04:41.760 be, as your word says, an absolute terror to the evildoer, a terror that criminals and that those
00:04:52.120 who are planning crime would be terrified, that they would shudder, that they would not even dream
00:05:01.100 to lift their hand up against the innocent, that they would not dare to try to commit violence
00:05:11.340 against people because they would be so afraid of the swift justice that would be brought down
00:05:22.360 on their head lord i pray that by your grace that america would make capital punishment great
00:05:29.740 again that in these cases where there's um irena from ukraine brutally stabbed on a subway
00:05:40.680 with video footage
00:05:42.500 in these cases that are clear
00:05:44.980 and cut
00:05:45.820 Lord I pray that there would be capital punishment
00:05:48.840 that the death penalty
00:05:50.700 would be inflicted
00:05:51.780 that it would not be 25 to 35
00:05:54.800 years drug along
00:05:56.640 but it would be swift
00:05:57.860 it would be just after a fair trial
00:06:00.740 and it would be
00:06:02.460 it would be
00:06:04.600 the proper proportionate
00:06:06.600 justice, life
00:06:08.180 for life
00:06:09.480 if any man sheds another man's blood he forfeits his own life this is how justice is established
00:06:19.080 lord i pray that christians would be bold in their witness and sharing the gospel
00:06:23.380 that we would do the work of evangelists that fathers and mothers and homes and pastors
00:06:29.000 would catechize and preach all of this is vital it can never be anything less
00:06:35.500 But when it comes to peace and prosperity and justice temporally in a nation, it is more, never less, than discipleship, gospel preaching, evangelism.
00:06:50.840 but it is more it is the civil magistrate being a terror to those who do evil using the full weight
00:07:01.780 of the law to carry out swift justice and we pray that this would be the case one last time lord we
00:07:10.500 ask for your mercy it be your will to spare charlie's life and if he dies we thank you that
00:07:17.260 he was a Christian, and we pray, Lord, that you would comfort. Even now, Holy Spirit, one of your
00:07:22.260 names is Comforter. We pray that you would comfort his wife, his child, his family, his friends.
00:07:30.720 And Lord, would you please protect Christians in America? We are under attack. Christians are
00:07:38.560 being hunted. White people are being attacked and discriminated against. Lord, we need your help.
00:07:49.000 There are fierce wolves ravaging the sheep. Protect us, Lord, and use your appointed means,
00:08:00.320 a civil magistrate, to be a sword of protection. We ask this in Jesus' name. Amen.
00:08:08.560 This has been a crazy week, guys, an absolutely crazy week.
00:08:13.760 Please be in prayer, be in prayer for Charlie, for his family.
00:08:18.780 But if I could selfishly ask, please be in prayer for others, myself included.
00:08:26.060 We are under attack.
00:08:27.620 I have received several death threats this week.
00:08:30.020 I did not sleep last night.
00:08:32.700 USA Today just published an article about me this week.
00:08:36.180 The Houston Chronicle just reached out this morning and is publishing an article about me.
00:08:43.760 I sat on my couch all night because people want me dead.
00:08:51.100 I've received death threats this week.
00:08:54.180 There are people who have found where I live.
00:09:00.060 And so I'm staying awake to protect my family.
00:09:03.960 I'll be going out of town actually right after this broadcast for an undisclosed period of time
00:09:10.880 with my family just for safety while things are as crazy as they are right now. Christians are
00:09:18.660 under attack. Conservatives are under attack and white people are under attack.
00:09:26.720 There's no other way to put it. This is the reality. Last thing I'll say here in the cold
00:09:32.600 open, and then we'll get to the story with Charlie Kirk and how that fits into the broader
00:09:38.160 narrative of right now what's happening. But I'll frame it up by saying this. If you have two boys
00:09:44.720 on a playground in a fierce, heated argument, and they're both stating their position, right?
00:09:52.240 They're young boys, so the position isn't very complex. No, it's my ball. No, it's my ball.
00:09:57.560 whatever the argument is, they use words at first. And they'll argue back and forth.
00:10:05.520 They may even raise their voices, raise their temper, begin to shout. And they're making
00:10:11.740 statements. They're making arguments. But if one of those boys doesn't have character,
00:10:20.880 has limited impulse control was not raised properly by his parents does not have good
00:10:31.560 behavior or self-control and he begins to lose the argument in word it is it is exceedingly common
00:10:42.660 that that young boy would then resort to violence, that the argument of words would culminate to the
00:10:53.200 one who's losing the argument beginning to physically, aggressively fight the other person.
00:11:01.780 That's where we're at right now as a nation. The left has made its arguments, the long march
00:11:09.720 through the institutions, universities, media, government, for decades. And it all built and
00:11:18.380 built and built where they were winning many of the arguments for decades. America politically,
00:11:23.660 culturally, religiously, sliding left, sliding left, sliding left, losing. Conservatives,
00:11:31.160 Christians, we were losing for decades, battle after battle after battle after battle.
00:11:36.780 And then the left really played its final hand in 2020.
00:11:46.520 They rigged an election.
00:11:49.740 They locked every U.S. citizen in their home.
00:11:54.820 They mandated, if you wanted to remain employed and be able to feed your family,
00:12:00.480 that you had to have a foreign substance injected into your bloodstream
00:12:04.800 for which many people have died by way of consequence.
00:12:10.500 And for four years, the left won the argument.
00:12:15.220 They had virtually total power over this country.
00:12:21.280 There were old ladies praying outside of abortion clinics, locked in jail.
00:12:27.520 People who were not a part of any organized insurrection,
00:12:32.460 but a part of a peaceful protest without trial, locked in jail.
00:12:39.680 I mean, total victory for the left for four years.
00:12:45.100 And I know it feels like a nightmare, like a dream,
00:12:48.160 but it was real and it was not that long ago.
00:12:50.060 For four years, it was a dark, dark time in our nation.
00:12:57.860 I think of the iconic image of Joe Biden with his hands raised, with the black and red lights
00:13:06.580 behind him. And we all lived through that. And by the grace of God, and only the grace of God,
00:13:15.920 Donald Trump, his life was spared after not just one, but multiple assassination attempts.
00:13:23.000 and the people of America unequivocally even with a popular vote not only electoral put him
00:13:32.380 in office meaning that we were losing an argument for decades and then all of a sudden we won
00:13:40.900 we didn't win everything but it was a decisive win at the time for the right and like those
00:13:48.700 two boys on the playground, the right now winning the argument. But I think we forget who we're
00:13:55.860 arguing against. That other boy on the playground, when he starts to lose an argument, he doesn't
00:14:05.780 have the upbringing that we have. He wasn't raised in church. He wasn't raised to be disciplined
00:14:15.200 and well-behaved. He doesn't have character. No, that other boy on the playground, the left,
00:14:25.000 gay race communism, when they start losing the argument, which they are now losing the argument
00:14:30.120 for the first time, you have to get a hold of this. For the first time in arguably 60 years,
00:14:36.980 the right has finally had a real victory. The tide is actually turning. The left,
00:14:44.880 for the first time in 60 years, is losing an argument. What does the left do? What do leftists
00:14:51.840 do when they start losing an argument. They physically fight. Communism, leftism doesn't
00:15:06.380 go away quietly. We're not talking about reasonable people. We're not talking about
00:15:12.840 logical people. We're talking about people who believe a boy can be a girl and a girl can be a
00:15:18.120 boy. They believe that a baby in its mother's wombs is just a clump of cells. These are not
00:15:26.900 reasonable people. These are not logical people. When these people are finally pushed back against,
00:15:34.320 they will fight. They will. And the right, no violence, no vigil anti-ism,
00:15:43.640 but the right politically for those appointed by God through the proper means into positions of
00:15:51.880 civil power they must bear the sword with righteousness and they must be an immediate
00:15:58.940 swift severe terror to those who do evil and if they're not then all of us are sitting ducks
00:16:12.000 We are like sheep led into a midst of wolves.
00:16:18.880 Our lives are in danger.
00:16:22.220 People like me who are standing up and taking risks,
00:16:27.880 my life, my family's life is in danger.
00:16:33.620 We need your prayers.
00:16:35.840 We need your courage.
00:16:37.920 We need your support.
00:16:41.320 We need your help.
00:16:45.720 Something has to give.
00:16:47.120 We can't live like this.
00:16:49.440 We don't have a country.
00:16:51.920 We cannot live like this.
00:16:55.480 Something has to give.
00:16:58.040 Let's tune into the show.
00:16:59.180 well as of 3 10 p.m i've been scanning the news as we've been talking and
00:17:14.060 it seems from decently reliable sources a number of them glenn beck being one i think turning
00:17:18.840 point usa being another it would appear at least for now he's alive and being stabilized he's got
00:17:24.460 that's unconfirmed we don't know but at this point it's about a dozen sources that are saying
00:17:29.060 some form of that. So at the very least, it would appear that he got quick medical help. If you
00:17:33.520 saw the shot and what happened, he was shot in the neck and there was a lot of bleeding,
00:17:37.500 but he has a security team. I believe also someone said that Utah has a level one trauma center. So
00:17:43.240 even in the midst of this tragedy, in God's goodness, it seems there's a fighting chance
00:17:47.340 that he survived what on any other battlefield or any other stage would have been instant death.
00:17:52.980 He would have been dead. This is as of 3 10 central PM. We don't know. We'll probably hear
00:17:57.160 later today. So continue to pray. But as is right now, there's no confirmation that he is dead and
00:18:02.580 there is hope that he's alive. Obviously, he would have a long road to recovery. The heart is generally
00:18:07.280 okay. If you go a little while without blood, it's the brain you're more worried about. So pray for
00:18:12.160 God to preserve brain function, that they were able to get to him quickly and that God would
00:18:16.760 guide the doctors and the nurses and everyone there. But there is, in God's grace, a hope and
00:18:21.520 a fighting chance. Let's tie this to, there's also occurring right now, there was just a shooting at
00:18:27.080 a Colorado high school. It appears two students have been shot. We all are, of course, still
00:18:31.560 reeling from the stabbing that occurred in the Charlotte light rail when a black man
00:18:35.140 slit the throat and stabbed a white woman three times in the neck. And just a week before that,
00:18:39.820 the transgender shooting at a Catholic school. A transgender man shot through the school of
00:18:46.300 the Catholic church, killing, I believe, seven children. This is just in the last three weeks.
00:18:52.340 And I don't know the political affiliation of, for example, the Colorado high school shooter.
00:18:56.360 you can obviously with almost certainty say that the individual that shot Charlie Kirk
00:19:00.740 hated his message was not right wing it's not as though he was too far to the right right and he
00:19:05.480 said Charlie you've got to come farther we know that he was white okay so this is the fact that
00:19:10.500 we do know this is okay suspected as of now the suspected shooter is best we can tell
00:19:15.460 he was a boomer he was elderly uh he was white um but yeah we know he was not right wing right
00:19:24.660 So you have the transgender shooter, most certainly left wing.
00:19:28.220 You have the black man who we don't know has a political affiliation.
00:19:31.660 But he would, of course, favored we all know.
00:19:33.800 Of course. This is why it's not just to get a rise.
00:19:37.680 It's not to be a shock jock.
00:19:38.980 I don't know a better phrase.
00:19:41.120 Gay, race, communism.
00:19:43.160 Gay, race, communism.
00:19:45.840 Catholic school shot up.
00:19:48.700 Transgender.
00:19:49.820 Put that in the gay category.
00:19:51.160 a woman stabbed bleeds out and dies on a subway race okay but what about the but what about the
00:19:59.800 white uh boomer well don't forget the third one communism gay race communism every single time
00:20:07.880 the thread here is that as you alluded to when the left gets cornered they get violent i think
00:20:15.660 of the Spanish Civil War. People love to hate on Francisco Franco, who rose up and led the
00:20:22.360 revolutionaries and kicked the communists out of Spain. And you can disagree with his tactics and
00:20:27.240 the measures he used, but people do not comprehend how violent and perverse and brutal the left was.
00:20:37.800 They did terrible things to Christian nuns. They forced priests to take communion with molten lead
00:20:45.400 in the mockery of Christianity.
00:20:47.900 The end stage of communism, of Bolshevism,
00:20:50.740 I think of on the Eastern Front in World War II
00:20:53.040 when the communist armies raped millions.
00:20:56.380 Real quick, we're getting an update
00:20:57.640 that according to Real America's Voice,
00:21:00.540 we have not yet confirmed this,
00:21:01.980 but according to Real America's Voice,
00:21:04.260 the shooter is a registered Democrat.
00:21:05.980 I can't believe it.
00:21:07.060 Shocking.
00:21:07.720 So whether it's sexual violence from Bolshevism,
00:21:10.840 whether it's the attacks on Christianity to the priests,
00:21:13.860 I mean, you have to understand that the greatest, the worst genocides that we know of, Mao, communism in China, Stalin, and the gulags, it's leftists.
00:21:26.440 Leftism, the destruction and the eradication of hierarchy, is what creates some of the most violent, brutal, inhumane, inhospitable, torturous living conditions wherever it goes.
00:21:40.240 And we've had a nice trial run.
00:21:41.540 We won in the Cold War against the communists, for example.
00:21:44.320 We really did. Communism collapsed.
00:21:45.800 The wall came down in 89, and there was a sense in which,
00:21:48.580 well, we beat communism, right?
00:21:50.720 The Communist Party of America, they basically disintegrated.
00:21:54.440 They never amounted to anything.
00:21:55.640 The USSR collapsed.
00:21:57.300 In many ways, you could say of Korea and you could say of Vietnam,
00:22:00.140 it kind of saved them from communism.
00:22:02.060 But a new and more insidious rebellion that is in the same vein,
00:22:05.660 it's not carrying the same language and using the same mechanisms,
00:22:09.420 it's still here.
00:22:10.120 and this doesn't end my prediction this doesn't end with some voting and some political victories
00:22:16.160 here and slowly moving the ball up and down the field you have to crush the left forever
00:22:23.200 well how do we get out of this well the way we get out is through right they're here they have
00:22:29.560 a grip they're losing as you said i i mean they have to know these tp usa events thousands of
00:22:37.100 college students we want to hear the right-wing version of this we want to hear charlie kirk it
00:22:41.880 appears at the time when he was shot he was talking about left-wing violence you're not
00:22:47.620 going to win if all over the united states people are sitting down and calmly explaining to thousands
00:22:52.560 of young college students that will go on to be politicians that will go on to be business owners
00:22:56.340 that will go on to build incredible things telling them hey and and as you grow just keep in your
00:23:01.240 mind uh the left is really violent they're not going to win their time is running out so if
00:23:06.320 You're a caged animal.
00:23:07.400 Your time is running out.
00:23:09.240 Well, you might as well.
00:23:10.480 It's kind of actually similar to Israel.
00:23:12.400 The gravy train is ending.
00:23:14.300 And they said, we either strike Iran now,
00:23:16.280 and maybe we'll have some support,
00:23:17.960 and maybe 50-50 shot this works out for us.
00:23:20.300 But they know Israel knows.
00:23:21.060 But if we do it in five years.
00:23:22.340 Nobody under the age of 45 on the left or the right
00:23:24.440 We've got no shot.
00:23:25.140 Is for Israel.
00:23:25.860 So they know that gravy train is running out.
00:23:27.720 Another example, though, right?
00:23:29.160 So the left, Israel.
00:23:31.520 Here's another example.
00:23:33.860 Satan.
00:23:34.260 for he knows his time is short part of the reason why satan rages against the righteous and prowls
00:23:43.280 around like a roaring lion seeking who he may destroy is because he knows that his time is
00:23:49.840 short um that's how the wicked behave when they know that they're losing um then then it's it's
00:23:59.200 you know no holds bar it's um it's take it to the the 11th degree they um they will become
00:24:08.140 violent and this is part of the reason why uh the kosher right that approach does not work there is
00:24:16.160 no there is no um visible path to just voting our way back to the 90s to just going back to
00:24:27.900 a simpler time. I think that many of us would love that. The 90s were not Christian like we
00:24:35.880 would want as those who are unapologetically followers of Christ. But the 90s were a time
00:24:41.900 where you could raise a family, you could afford a house, your kids could play outside in the
00:24:47.240 neighborhood without having to be in fear. And so many of us, yeah, we would like that. I'd take
00:24:54.400 the 90s over this of course sure um but the reason why we talk about the things that we talk about
00:24:59.860 is because logically and also historically um that's not how history works you don't just
00:25:09.560 rewind the clock the the way back is by going through um you have to seize power righteously
00:25:19.240 and keep power righteously and wield power righteously, you have to. This idea that,
00:25:28.340 well, power is not a virtue. Well, power, what I would say is power, I tweeted this out in
00:25:36.860 response to James Lindsay recently. He said, power is not a virtue. Christians shouldn't
00:25:41.420 care about it if christians forsake power then the wicked will take power so power whether or
00:25:49.400 not it's a virtue i think you could argue you know i could put up an argument i have some ideas but
00:25:53.780 you don't even need to this is what i would say um power is neither a virtue nor is it a vice
00:26:00.520 power is a vehicle not a virtue nor a vice but a vehicle and it is a vehicle that will be
00:26:09.460 used for either virtue or vice so power itself may not be a virtue but it's certainly not
00:26:17.360 biblically speaking a vice the question is not whether but which right which kind of power
00:26:23.660 which direction is power being wielded who has the power what are they doing with the power so
00:26:31.280 power is not a virtue nor is it a vice but it's a vehicle and and there is no vacuum right we live
00:26:39.140 in God's world. We live in the real world. We don't live in hypotheticals. We don't live in
00:26:43.800 the 17th dimension. We don't live in Never Ever Land with Peter Pan. Power is real, and someone
00:26:50.060 always has it. Someone always has it. So then the question is, will power, not as a vice nor as a
00:26:58.420 virtue but as a vehicle be used in virtuous ways or in terrible ways so that's the only hope the
00:27:09.400 only hope is the american people have to see leftism as is wicked and evil as it actually is
00:27:18.700 as it actually is ensure that the left never ever is allowed within a hundred mile radius
00:27:27.500 of the levers of power in this country ever again i mean we've seen it it's it's we've seen so many
00:27:35.420 examples just in not years weeks guys weeks so you think of um the ukrainian girl who who her
00:27:45.260 throat was slit you see it on camera on a subway she bleeds out and dies alone this man who did
00:27:54.540 this. He had 14 prior arrests. People are using the phrase that he was a career criminal. Do you
00:28:02.040 know how oxymoronic that is? Career criminal? There should be no possibility of someone ever
00:28:10.120 achieving the status of career criminal. You're a criminal? Okay. You're done. You're done. You
00:28:16.960 don't get 14 chances. No, that's not the way justice works. Your soul, yes, you can pray and
00:28:25.920 if you have faith in Christ, you can be forgiven. That's a spiritual category. That's a category of
00:28:31.780 the church, a category of grace, right? The kingdom of grace, the things that are sacred,
00:28:37.560 the things that are eternal. But there's also the kingdom, the common kingdom, the kingdom of this
00:28:42.720 world. And in the temporal world, not with the church, but with the state, not with grace,
00:28:49.060 but with justice, not eternal, but temporal in the right category. Christians have to be able
00:28:55.600 to think in categories in the right category. No, there are no second chances. You don't get
00:29:00.900 second chances. Well, that doesn't sound like the gospel to me. Correct. It's not. It's not the
00:29:06.500 gospel. It's justice. The civil magistrate is not God's deacon for the gospel. He is God's deacon
00:29:14.640 to carry out justice. The church preaches the gospel. The civil magistrate bears the sword,
00:29:22.880 and he's supposed to not bear it in vain. And that's what we've had. We've had a civil magistrate
00:29:27.580 in this country, our political leaders, for decades now, wearing a sword on their waist
00:29:34.400 in vain. A sword that an entire swath of our country's population knows good and well that
00:29:42.480 that sword will not ever be taken out of its holster and used on them. And that's why they
00:29:48.660 continue to commit crime again and again and again. We have virtually no accountability for women. 1.00
00:29:56.180 We have virtually no accountability for black minorities. We have virtually no accountability
00:30:03.360 for leftists and liberals we don't and and and you look at that and you you see well okay well
00:30:12.180 how would the right being in power have saved guys dei is deadly it's deadly right how did this guy
00:30:20.840 have 14 prior arrests and and still be able to walk free well there was a judge who let him go
00:30:29.600 free a woman she was black and from the sources that i've read this is if this is wrong then i'll
00:30:38.100 come out and correct it but from what i've been able to confirm thus far she did not have a law
00:30:43.420 degree and she was appointed as a judge by democrat politicians and policies so that she could do what 0.79
00:30:52.240 as a judge, enact justice, promote the peace? No. So that she could pardon criminals. So that 1.00
00:31:01.340 those who are righteous would live in fear. That's our country. That is our country. We live in a
00:31:10.640 demonic place. We live in a wicked place, and preaching the gospel is paramount. But just
00:31:21.500 politics and a just civil magistrate goes a long way, and I have been fighting against the pietism
00:31:31.360 of Christian ministers, my peers, for years at this point. Them slandering me, lying to me,
00:31:39.900 telling people I'm a false teacher
00:31:41.960 and that they shouldn't ever listen to me.
00:31:43.960 We've lost people in our church
00:31:45.620 because they've been lied to, right?
00:31:48.180 Called through the gossip train
00:31:49.780 and persuaded to never come back.
00:31:52.580 All because, for many reasons,
00:31:54.840 but this is one, one of the big ones,
00:31:57.020 because I have insisted
00:31:58.360 that you can clean up America temporally.
00:32:03.700 Temporally.
00:32:04.680 Not talking about saving people's souls.
00:32:06.640 Not talking about the eternal.
00:32:07.800 but temporally speaking politically culturally and nationally you can clean up america to a great
00:32:16.100 degree without a spiritual revival do i as a pastor as a minister as a christian as a husband
00:32:23.880 as a father pray and in my daily life work towards by sharing the gospel and preaching the word of
00:32:30.160 god work towards a spiritual revival do i pray for it do i want it do i desire it yes but the
00:32:36.900 idea that a spiritual revival, that, you know, 50% of the country's population plus one must be
00:32:45.480 born again and converted spiritually in order for us to have a peaceful place to live, is not
00:32:51.300 actually true. And it's not even biblically true, which is the only standard for real truth that
00:32:57.240 there is. It's not biblically true. You can have a few people who are behaving righteously as God's
00:33:06.640 deacons in God-appointed positions of political power in our country who say, hey, you're not a
00:33:14.400 Christian? That's fine. But if you break the law, you will be punished severely. And guess what?
00:33:22.880 Even non-Christians respond to that. Black, white, red and yellow, black and white,
00:33:29.260 They're precious in his sight, and they also respond to strict threats of justice for law
00:33:36.440 breaking. But when someone is operating under the mindset, because it's reality, it's a wicked
00:33:43.240 reality, that they can break the law 14 times and still walk free. That's DEI. That judge
00:33:52.320 appointment all this is dei when the left gained power they appointed judges to continue to
00:34:00.240 facilitate a a for four years we had an invasion at our southern border changing the demographics
00:34:07.760 of our country so the left would be able to sure up their voting base and remain in power forever
00:34:15.580 and they guys they were this close this is not a hypothetical this is this is not hyperbole they
00:34:24.340 were this close if kamala had won that election and we had the same degree and we probably would
00:34:33.280 have had more of immigration that we had for four years under biden it is entirely possible
00:34:38.580 that you would have a total leftist stranglehold on the nation politically and culturally
00:34:46.980 forever forever i i struggle on a daily basis i have to go to the lord in prayer
00:34:54.200 to have hope to have hope that it's not already over for america but the fact that it's even a
00:35:00.980 question that that that maybe it's not over for america that only exists that only exists
00:35:07.620 because Kamala didn't win that election.
00:35:10.560 That's the only reason I'm able, through prayer,
00:35:13.140 to feel like there's at least some hope
00:35:15.520 that maybe we could get our country back again.
00:35:20.240 Someone put in the comments, they said,
00:35:21.840 well, I struggle to even see this is all nice and good,
00:35:24.980 but the left could never be defeated in our generation.
00:35:27.860 The left in different places has been defeated
00:35:29.440 in less than five years.
00:35:31.340 It requires will.
00:35:32.700 Will.
00:35:33.420 And these are the events.
00:35:34.640 It was actually an assassination.
00:35:36.440 Two of your guys on the right talking about a Protestant Franco.
00:35:39.600 Right.
00:35:40.240 Oh, because you guys love violence. 0.81
00:35:41.920 No, they were raping and slaughtering nuns.
00:35:45.360 You do not understand communism.
00:35:47.620 They were raping and slaughtering nuns.
00:35:50.900 Communism does not respond to liberalism.
00:35:54.580 It does not respond to neocons.
00:35:58.120 It did respond to fascism.
00:36:02.420 It did.
00:36:03.120 what's crazy about Charlie too
00:36:05.180 guys, Charlie is the moderate
00:36:06.940 he's a moderate compared to us, he's a moderate compared to
00:36:09.440 almost anyone who's watching this stream
00:36:11.200 and they killed him, or they attempted
00:36:13.420 to kill him, he was traveling around
00:36:15.440 campuses, I'll have a conversation
00:36:17.300 with anyone, I'll sit down and talk
00:36:19.240 I'll sit down and reason
00:36:20.580 he was the moderate, and they did that to him
00:36:23.700 you think
00:36:25.060 they wouldn't do it to you, if you had that
00:36:27.240 platform, if you were accessible, if you were
00:36:29.160 speaking about these things, I'm going to pull up
00:36:31.360 Because you need to connect this instance of violence with the left.
00:36:35.840 And so I'm going to pull up from, there's a subreddit.
00:36:37.940 Real quick, as you do, yeah, this is important for the listener to see.
00:36:41.780 But as you do, for those who are watching this broadcast live, can you confirm it looks like Charlie is dead?
00:36:50.700 I haven't seen anything like that.
00:36:53.220 Some people say he's dead and another person says he's alive.
00:36:55.720 Okay, I'm hearing people say he's brain dead right now.
00:36:58.560 I feel like I think it would be a little
00:37:00.900 too early. Keep praying. Everyone
00:37:02.860 keep praying. Lord, spare his life
00:37:04.980 if it be your will. Spare his
00:37:06.860 life in the name of Jesus.
00:37:08.940 Amen. Okay.
00:37:11.180 It's not just the shooter, guys.
00:37:13.040 It's not just the shooter. You need to
00:37:14.820 know who you're sharing a country with.
00:37:17.460 Who you're sharing a country with.
00:37:18.880 Wes is going to give us a little
00:37:20.020 sample, a little sample size
00:37:22.740 of the type of person who lives in this
00:37:24.860 country. So this is a sample from a
00:37:26.660 leftist subreddit that doesn't like Turning Point
00:37:28.520 usa again turning point usa these are the moderates these are some of the comments from the users
00:37:33.060 two in the thoughts one in the prayers uh normally military drills when you shoot you shoot two to
00:37:39.940 the chest one to the head so they're mocking the thoughts and prayers for charlie kirk saying well
00:37:45.300 this is kind of what he deserved someone said my response is fantastic another response if you call
00:37:51.780 for extermination of people long enough someone will finally stop it someone else said hopefully
00:37:57.020 he'll take comfort never called for the extermination of anyone no hopefully he'll take
00:38:02.040 comfort from the fact that this proves he was right all along the answer really is a good guy
00:38:06.920 with a gun spew violence and hate and you reap what you sow somebody put in all caps let's go
00:38:13.380 these are leftists on reddit this was black lives matter so black lives matter they chimed in and
00:38:21.140 they said uh charlie kirk was shot during a live event america is rotting under its gun obsession
00:38:25.840 no matter the belief no matter the politics bullets are not the answer well for murderers
00:38:32.720 they are yes they are this is stephen king stephen king said the motivation of the man who shot
00:38:38.760 charlie kirk isn't clear although he's probably mentally unstable what is clear is was another
00:38:44.260 example of american gun violence they that we have a political party that is not going to go
00:38:52.420 down easy no and and as you can see they celebrate the violence you have to think i mean so much
00:38:58.380 rhetoric and charlie kirk was on the receiving end you're a nazi you're a fascist big wigs trump
00:39:03.800 is authoritarian they stoked this pot for years i can't believe this ended in violence we only
00:39:09.720 invoked moral superiority every single day every week for three years on end why did anyone think
00:39:16.980 that tailgating political violence would have been the means to solve it because you walked
00:39:21.020 millions of people up to that line and said hope you don't do anything more yeah he's really bad
00:39:27.320 this is the reincarnation of satan something should happen to him and now they've done it
00:39:32.020 and now the left is standing back great job this is i mean honestly like i i can't help you know
00:39:39.460 i don't want to make it about me but um they know what they're doing right so when usa today writes
00:39:46.200 an article about me like they did this week and when the houston chronicle reaches out to to
00:39:52.600 publish an article probably in the next couple days like they reached out this morning they know
00:39:57.440 that that's going to be seen by thousands if not tens of thousands of people and they know that
00:40:02.840 that the people were not all of them but among those people in their audience their audience is
00:40:10.440 It's not the new Christian right, right?
00:40:14.660 No, their audience is leftist who will read that and say,
00:40:18.780 thank you for the marching orders, Houston Chronicles.
00:40:22.160 Thank you for the marching orders, USA Today.
00:40:24.860 Thank you for the marching orders, CNN.
00:40:27.180 Thank you for the marching orders, MSNBC.
00:40:31.860 Consider it done.
00:40:33.720 And they load their gun.
00:40:35.440 They get in their car.
00:40:36.300 and they go to hunt, to hunt people on the right.
00:40:43.160 The right doesn't do that.
00:40:45.260 The right doesn't do that.
00:40:47.280 The left does.
00:40:49.080 They hunt Christian children in schools.
00:40:53.140 I mean, they hunt right-wing political figures at a rally.
00:40:58.600 They hunt people on presidential campaigns as they're speaking.
00:41:06.300 this is what they do that was the moment too and we talked about it when happened
00:41:10.560 this is not politics as usual because they're going to be a hesitancy especially among boomers
00:41:15.780 well politics is always you know just back and forth and one side or the other it's all kind
00:41:20.660 of the same no a presidential candidate was shot in the head two inches more in his eyes and his
00:41:26.300 brain would have been blown out on live tv we are not in the 90s we are not in the 80s we are not in
00:41:32.200 the 70s a fundamental political calculus has changed and you christian there's a great verse
00:41:39.220 in the bible blessed be the lord my god who trains my hands for war so now that the calculus has
00:41:44.000 changed it always was politics always was war by different means war without the bullets becoming
00:41:48.800 more external and now it's becoming war with the bullets from one side so you as the christian oh
00:41:55.340 this has changed that calculus 10 years ago that's not true anymore well i moved my family here and
00:42:00.540 wasn't that bad and i could deal with it great that's all changed now and that's something we've
00:42:04.820 been saying you need to be safe have land live away from other people have a job that's stable
00:42:10.620 where you can speak out like we are right now and not get fired have a church where your pastor is
00:42:15.820 not going to be struggle sessioning you for crimes against the post-war consensus while christian men
00:42:20.600 are being gunned down on campuses as they try to talk to individuals like you have to know the
00:42:25.100 times the moving away is it just that is is key like my wife and i you know we talked right before
00:42:30.160 we were recording this you and i and and our our tech guys um and and all of you guys were
00:42:36.740 encouraging me and saying joel you have to move uh because my my address has been made public
00:42:41.420 and um we're not my family's not safe we're not safe here um i just i just had somebody uh give me
00:42:50.860 um a bulletproof uh vest to wear every sunday um which i will be wearing this sunday
00:42:59.080 um every sunday when i preach because we have to these are the kinds of things
00:43:06.440 um this is where we're at as a country right now and um yeah and so i'll i'll say this
00:43:14.280 uh we're not playing any ads on this episode intentionally uh because um just the nature
00:43:21.300 of the subject matter is just too it's too dire it's too weighty it's too heavy and uh and so
00:43:27.000 we decided to cut all of our advertisers for this episode. But I will say this.
00:43:34.800 If there is a solid Christian man on the right who is speaking out, who is being courageous
00:43:43.780 and speaking out on these matters, he is in danger. His life is under threat. And
00:43:53.300 guys like that, and by God's grace, and it's only the grace of God, it's not me,
00:43:59.360 but I'm one of them. I'm only in the fight because of your support, your financial support.
00:44:07.180 That's the only reason why. I've had pastors try to destroy our ministry. I've had Christians
00:44:14.680 come after us because I'm not a 20th century liberal. That's my great heresy, my great crime.
00:44:21.380 um and then the left my phone has been ringing off the hook all day all day hate mail after hate
00:44:28.920 mail voicemail after voicemail um it's crazy it is crazy and like you said moving away um
00:44:38.060 that's that's something that um i have to do now um i yeah that's something that i'm actively
00:44:45.920 planning and I'm going to have to pull the trigger quickly to get away, to have more privacy,
00:44:54.000 to have more safety. And if you know anyone like that, if you know, man, this ministry or this
00:45:01.880 podcast or this guy, he's distinctly Christian. He's on the right and he's courageous. And he's
00:45:09.080 taking a stand on these issues. He's willing to talk about race. He's willing to talk about
00:45:14.200 feminism. He's willing to talk about Zionism. Um, he's willing to talk about, uh, the rise of
00:45:20.560 the left and communism and these kinds of things. Um, that guy needs your prayers. He also needs
00:45:26.960 your support and, and not just for, you know, not just so he can live a cushy life. Um, not,
00:45:32.740 not, not for comfort, comfort, but for safety, him, his family, his team. Um, they actually
00:45:40.340 need financial support for security um to change an address um those kinds of things
00:45:49.480 it pains me but uh that's the world that we're currently living in that's the world that we're
00:45:56.440 currently living in and you should remember this feeling if you feel i just watching the video is
00:46:01.240 gut-wrenching what's going to come after is not going to be moderate like charlie we tried i think
00:46:06.720 And for three years now, Joel, you have been insisting.
00:46:09.560 There's off-ramps to where we don't have to do this the hard way.
00:46:13.540 And we could take them.
00:46:14.420 We could turn back to God, go back to church.
00:46:17.500 We could repent of these sins and these sins and these sins,
00:46:19.960 of abortion, of feminism, of all these things.
00:46:22.040 There are exit ramps before we get to the brutality that this might take.
00:46:26.360 Not that we're advocating for it, but just as a recognition of reality.
00:46:29.220 We don't want that.
00:46:30.160 But we keep suggesting biblical off-ramps.
00:46:33.040 And we keep getting told by Christians that we're wicked and heretics.
00:46:39.940 And so what you will see, if people will not even be willing,
00:46:44.560 if Christians will, if everyone chooses to be on the kosher right
00:46:48.920 and is going to label anybody willing to talk about things like this
00:46:53.800 as woke right or fascist or whatever, and you will not listen,
00:47:00.920 then you will see a solution one day and and very possibly soon and it will be a solution that is
00:47:09.380 far more intense than anything we've ever advocated for right and my family will be okay
00:47:14.360 because we're we're not criminals we're not degenerates we're not leftists that revolution
00:47:20.060 will actually be for the most part it's not going to harm us it'll harm people and there will be
00:47:25.440 collateral damage of those that that are innocent be it a college student that voted democrat or a
00:47:29.920 type of race war so we're not the ones that are in the crosshairs begging you don't do this don't
00:47:35.640 drive people to the extreme but when it does happen uh you can sit there and say yeah actually
00:47:41.960 like you said you did kind of say well you could do this this would be better this would be
00:47:46.680 preferable and now you're with that one and at a certain point you got to take the bed that you
00:47:50.640 made and you've got to lie down in it and say yep we did this like people are really literally going
00:47:56.240 to say our cowardice did joel webin our passivity did this joel webin wow his solutions were actually
00:48:03.400 pretty reasonable as you look out moderate sensible they're really going to say that you
00:48:08.460 you've said it and it almost feels like a joke but uh compared to probably what's coming these
00:48:12.380 next few years i want to get into maybe practical steps that you can take but uh compared to the
00:48:16.700 next few years oh yeah that guy was a moderate we should have listened to him well you had your
00:48:21.920 chance. Yep. All right. Let's, um, I want to wrap the episode up, but this is really important here
00:48:26.880 at the end. So stay with us. Um, Wes, give us just a few practical steps. Let's take five minutes,
00:48:32.680 a few practical steps. What should Christians on the right be doing now? Yeah. There's some
00:48:37.380 organization that you need to do locally and it's offline. So we're not going to sit here and say,
00:48:41.320 do this, that, or the other. And I'm not talking about violence, but you need to be doing it
00:48:44.820 locally. And here's what we're going to resist this way or that way. And I can't tell you what
00:48:48.280 it can be. But one thing you can do, all of you are involved, you have a neighborhood that you
00:48:52.660 probably live in, and a town that you live in, and you have friends and acquaintances. You need to
00:48:57.120 make the idea of being tolerant to the left, accepting of the left, of both sidesism. You're
00:49:03.560 a pastor, for instance. That needs to be anathema. You need to mock the idea that leftist ideals and
00:49:11.660 leftist thought belong in public square. You need to denigrate the transgender and the gay rights
00:49:18.080 movement. When I see pride flags in public, I'm tearing them down and getting rid of them. And
00:49:23.480 people are coming into work. He means that literally. They're coming into work and they're
00:49:27.460 feeling, oh, somebody doesn't want this here. The left, those who agree with it, those who are
00:49:33.220 sympathetic to it, that live in your neighborhood and your town, non-violently need to feel that
00:49:39.240 they are not welcome. That they can feel like the right felt from 2015 to about 2024. If you have
00:49:47.240 these ideas you need to take them and shove them deep down and keep them of the privacy of your
00:49:52.860 home and never bring them out because if you bring them out in polite society that you think
00:49:57.840 maybe charlie kirk deserved it or well there's the right and the left on both sides that people
00:50:02.760 will think you're an idiot that's what needs to be done and there are enough people same thing to do
00:50:08.220 it right and it's the same thing that's what the left did right it's not just gaining political
00:50:12.920 control, but cultural. There is informal power by way of influence. How many things, perfectly
00:50:20.200 reasonable, perfectly Christian things, not violence, nothing like that, but perfectly
00:50:24.840 reasonable Christian ideals and virtues, have you been afraid to utter in polite society for
00:50:33.940 decades now? Why? Why have you felt that way? Why have you felt nervous to say certain things?
00:50:42.920 because the left seized power and they wielded it politically and culturally academically at every
00:50:51.780 level economically like well i can't say that i'll lose my job that's power right that's power being
00:50:58.340 wielded like there there has to be the right has to do that through ethical means right so i'm not
00:51:05.620 talking about non-civil magistrate right private citizens in the realm of violence but private
00:51:11.120 citizens if you're a business owner and uh and somebody is one of your employees and you see on
00:51:18.200 social media that they say ha ha ha charlie kirk got what he deserved fired yep you must exercise
00:51:25.260 find where they work economic power you must exercise cultural power you you have to and a
00:51:32.540 warning to those who would do terrible things well i'm just going to go shoot up a synagogue
00:51:36.820 that's terrible and you will hurt the cause you will engender opposition to us that is a wicked
00:51:44.700 thing to do it's wicked and you will harm the very end you want to create so do not use this
00:51:51.020 opportunity to do something terrible and destroy the awakening that people are having things are
00:51:57.540 terrible the left needs to go away you can single-handedly destroy that by losing your cool
00:52:02.340 by going off the reservation and being violent.
00:52:05.980 Hear us plead with you.
00:52:07.300 Do not do that.
00:52:09.560 Be sensible.
00:52:10.480 If you have a family, your children need you.
00:52:12.860 And there are so many ways, so many tangible ways
00:52:16.060 that we can crush the left economically, politically, culturally,
00:52:19.560 that we can do it.
00:52:21.040 We need trigger discipline.
00:52:22.480 You need self-control.
00:52:25.160 Right.
00:52:25.740 Any other, real quick, and then I have one last thing that I want to say.
00:52:28.700 Anything else practical that people can do?
00:52:31.100 I think that's the big one is wherever you can in any sphere, even if it's uncomfortable, make it clear.
00:52:38.120 This is what's normal.
00:52:39.460 This is what's accepted.
00:52:41.000 Leftism does not count on that list.
00:52:43.320 Amen.
00:52:44.500 All right.
00:52:44.720 This is the last thing that I want to say.
00:52:46.000 I don't often do this, but this is a 501c3 Christian ministry at the end of the day.
00:52:50.860 And we operate by your generosity and your financial support.
00:52:57.040 We need help.
00:52:58.580 We need help.
00:52:59.120 And people have been trying to crush this ministry for quite a while now.
00:53:05.300 And at this point, it's not just people trying to crush the ministry,
00:53:09.400 but there are psychopaths who would love to physically harm me or my family.
00:53:17.220 And so I am going to shamelessly here at the end ask for your financial help.
00:53:23.500 There are certain things that I need to do to protect my family
00:53:26.760 so that I can continue to be a stalwart for preaching the truth
00:53:32.700 and applying scripture to every realm of life,
00:53:37.380 including these important topics that many, let's be honest,
00:53:41.520 the vast majority of pastors in America will not touch.
00:53:45.140 They won't.
00:53:46.760 I will.
00:53:48.460 I have.
00:53:50.160 And I will continue to.
00:53:52.200 But I need you.
00:53:54.280 I will stand on the front line and fight.
00:53:58.100 I need you to be a shield bearer for me.
00:54:01.820 I'll swing my sword.
00:54:04.400 I need you to hold my shield.
00:54:06.680 I need you to make me bulletproof,
00:54:10.340 to make my family bulletproof.
00:54:12.360 I can't keep doing this if I can't feed my family
00:54:15.380 and if I can't protect them.
00:54:17.400 And at the end of the day,
00:54:19.140 that requires a lot of things,
00:54:21.420 but money is one of them.
00:54:23.600 So if you're willing, we ask very humbly
00:54:26.540 and very gratefully for you to prayerfully consider
00:54:29.820 going to rightresponseministries.com forward slash donate.
00:54:37.760 rightresponseministries.com forward slash donate.
00:54:41.860 And you can make a donation of any amount,
00:54:44.740 tax deductible, to keep me in the fight.
00:54:48.780 And if you do, from the bottom of my heart,
00:54:51.900 with no Roman salute, I'm incredibly grateful. Thank you. It appears he has died. So it's been
00:54:59.880 confirmed. It has been officially confirmed that Charlie Kirk has died. May God rest his soul.
00:55:07.040 He's with the Lord now in bliss and glory. Pray for his wife. Pray for his child. Pray for his
00:55:16.400 family and pray that God would use this to stir in the hearts of many courage first for the kingdom
00:55:25.600 of God and the glory of Jesus Christ and secondly that our nation America would be restored to law
00:55:34.560 and order and that the hordes of help would be properly righteously justly through the proper
00:55:44.180 means beaten back. It's not whether but which. Every culture, every society, someone will be
00:55:52.200 in the closet. If it's not the wicked, it'll be the righteous, right? If it's not the cross-dresser
00:55:59.820 in the closet, then it'll be Catholic children hiding in the closet, afraid to go to school.
00:56:06.420 It's not whether but which.
00:56:08.700 There will always be someone ostracized.
00:56:12.020 The biblical command, imperative,
00:56:17.820 is that the one in society who is ostracized
00:56:20.960 would be the one who is wicked
00:56:22.800 and therefore justly ostracized.
00:56:28.380 Pray.
00:56:30.240 Act.
00:56:31.540 Speak.
00:56:32.600 Preach.
00:56:33.600 Give.
00:56:33.960 we need to work towards the restoration of our country and the glory of god let's end with uh
00:56:42.380 you're gonna say anymore no let's end with psalm 58 psalm 58 verse 2 to the end or verse 3 the
00:56:48.560 wicked are estranged from the womb they go astray as soon as they are born speaking lies
00:56:52.320 their poison is like the poison of a serpent they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear
00:56:56.680 which will not hearken to the voice of charmers charmers never so wisely break their teeth oh
00:57:01.800 God in their mouth, break out the great teeth of the young lion, O Lord. Let them melt away as
00:57:06.620 waters which run continually. When he bendeth his bow to shoot his arrows, let them be as cut in
00:57:11.800 pieces. As a snail which melteth, let every one of them pass away, like the untimely birth of a
00:57:17.580 woman, that they may not see the sun. Before your pots can feel the thorns, he shall take them away
00:57:22.600 as a whirlwind, both living and in his wrath. The righteous shall rejoice when he seeth the
00:57:27.980 vengeance. He shall wash his feet in the blood of the wicked, so that man shall say, verily there
00:57:32.920 is a reward for the righteous. Verily he is a God that judges in the earth. Amen. Come, Lord Jesus,
00:57:40.140 come. Thanks for tuning in, and Lord willing, we will see you again on Friday. God bless.
00:57:57.980 You
