and thank you for sharing a part of

8
00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:43.399
your day with us. I'm Bill
Martinez. This is the Bill Martinez Show,

9
00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:47.159
and we are live. We're gonna
be talking with an old friend.

10
00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:52.759
I feel like I've known doctor Rawley
Washington most of my life. We've,

11
00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:58.359
you know, have crossed paths along
the way through our walk with the Lord

12
00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:03.480
and our experiences in serving the body
of Christ. And it's really an honor

13
00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:07.959
to have him with us today to
talk about his new book, One Word,

14
00:01:07.480 --> 00:01:11.920
The Cure for Hurt, Hatred and
Hostility. So no matter where you're

15
00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:15.359
looking, I mean, that's what
we're seeing, right, hurt, hatred,

16
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:21.159
and hostility. Whether you're seeing on
TV what's happening with Israel and Hamas,

17
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:27.159
Palestinians, Ukraine, Russia, We've
got something like I believe that last

18
00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:33.239
count about thirty two wars right now
active on the globe right now. This

19
00:01:33.319 --> 00:01:38.000
is where we are. And doctor
Raleig Washington a living legend in the world

20
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:42.439
of reconciliation. It's going to be
talking about eight essential principles for relationship now.

21
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:47.200
These are supported by real stories of
empathy, intentional and concentrated work and

22
00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:53.319
reconciliation and deep healing of relational discord
from racism and anti semitism to marriage.

23
00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:57.359
These concepts have been proven to break
down the walls of division and usher in

24
00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:01.799
understanding, healing in unity. And
I think we can all agree that is

25
00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:05.799
what we need. Doctor Roleige Washington. Good to have you on the show.

26
00:02:05.840 --> 00:02:07.759
How are you, sir, Bill. I'm doing just great and it's

27
00:02:07.800 --> 00:02:12.560
good to be back with you.
Brother. Let's fight the wars with the

28
00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:15.520
word of God. Amen, Amen, because he is the answer I mean

29
00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:23.439
right now in this modern you know, in a postmodernistic world, however way

30
00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:28.199
you want to identify it, that
has decided somehow they can do better than

31
00:02:28.240 --> 00:02:32.280
God, we're seeing the results of
them having it their way, and it's

32
00:02:32.319 --> 00:02:39.080
not too good. Absolutely, there's
no ifn buns about it. We've got

33
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:45.759
toxic division, not just toxic division
all over, driven by false narratives.

34
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:51.639
And when a false narrative is believed, it creates havoc. You know,

35
00:02:51.759 --> 00:02:55.240
it's a battle between Satan and Jesus. It's like the war in Israel.

36
00:02:55.280 --> 00:02:59.879
It's a holy war between the God
of Islam and the God of Abraham.

37
00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:05.719
In Jacob and exactly the Islamic terrorists
they know it's a holy war, but

38
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:10.120
I don't think we understand that ourselves
were not stop. Well, we've kind

39
00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:14.400
of let this creep up on us, and in such a way it's it's

40
00:03:14.479 --> 00:03:19.840
just been. It's like that metaphorical
story of the frog in the boiling pot.

41
00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:23.159
It starts out so easy until you
realize, whoa, it's boiling and

42
00:03:23.159 --> 00:03:28.039
I'm getting cooked here. And it
started with one important thing that you mentioned,

43
00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:31.159
that is the truth. The truth
comes from God. If you eliminate

44
00:03:31.199 --> 00:03:36.840
God, you eliminate the truth.
Now guess what you let go of all

45
00:03:36.879 --> 00:03:43.479
those anchorings, those moral anchorings that
keeps the society together, and you bring

46
00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:47.879
chaos into the environment, no question
about it. Romans three addressed what you

47
00:03:47.960 --> 00:03:53.000
said, Bill. It says,
let God be true in every man eliar.

48
00:03:54.240 --> 00:04:00.439
It is God's word that we need
to indeed survive Droy their false narratives.

49
00:04:00.879 --> 00:04:03.960
It's God's word that will point us
to Jesus, you know. It's

50
00:04:04.080 --> 00:04:09.919
everything. Well, and the thing
is is we've got to keep asking questions.

51
00:04:10.360 --> 00:04:13.360
It's almost like we've got to return
to our youth, to a certain

52
00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:16.639
way, you know, because when
we were young, we always asked our

53
00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:23.399
parents why why. But somehow we
become adults and we stop asking why,

54
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:29.800
and we just we go along,
and there's no exercise of critical thought,

55
00:04:30.439 --> 00:04:35.000
critical questioning, and we just go
along to get along. Well, it's

56
00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:38.759
because we think we know it all, you know. As you mentioned the

57
00:04:38.759 --> 00:04:45.199
book, I wrote one word.
See that one word changes everything. And

58
00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:46.519
I ask people what does that word? They say, law, I say

59
00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:53.759
includes that Jesus. It involves Jesus. But the one word is relationship exactly.

60
00:04:53.879 --> 00:04:59.920
Relationship changes everything. Two greatest commandments
love God, roy harnmin soul,

61
00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:03.120
instrength. The second one is like
it, love your neighbor as yourself.

62
00:05:03.639 --> 00:05:09.199
And Jesus says in Matthew twenty two. If you do that successfully about loving

63
00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:13.199
God with everything manifested by loving your
neighbor as yourself, no matter who that

64
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:16.120
neighbor is, what color that neighbor
is. If you do that, you

65
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:21.360
satisfy the law and commandments. That
means you satisfying every commandment from Genesis or

66
00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:27.839
Revelation. Get you daily live by
that principle of loving God and loving your

67
00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:31.279
neighbors, yourself, relationship with God, relationship with neighbors. That will change

68
00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:35.519
everything. Well, it's key to
God's infrastructure. Raleigh. I've always said,

69
00:05:35.519 --> 00:05:40.000
because you know, you think about
how God created the heavens and the

70
00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:43.920
earth. Yeah, theoretical. I
mean when you read the Old Testament and

71
00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:47.279
God, you know, if he's
talking to Moses or you know, talking

72
00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:53.759
to David and Solomon about you know, the design of a temple, it's

73
00:05:53.879 --> 00:05:58.240
down to the micro inch. Everything
is specific and exact. It's not like,

74
00:05:58.680 --> 00:06:01.079
you know, Lucy Goosey kind of
do it this way if you have

75
00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:06.319
eleven or twelve you know hooks to
you know, No, it is all

76
00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:12.600
very specific. So if God is
that specific in building his temple and with

77
00:06:12.759 --> 00:06:17.360
everything else that we know about God, he is specific about the things that

78
00:06:17.560 --> 00:06:25.639
are essential, that are what I
call the infrastructure, that key element that

79
00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:28.879
he told he told Cain about.
He said, if you do right,

80
00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:31.480
will it not go well for you? Right? Yeah? Well, you

81
00:06:31.519 --> 00:06:36.120
know interesting what you said is so
right to me. Three weeks ago,

82
00:06:38.199 --> 00:06:43.879
my wife, my daughter, my
baby daughter, and two of my grandkids,

83
00:06:44.079 --> 00:06:48.879
son in law and I went to
the arc encounter in Kentucky. Oh

84
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:54.399
isn't that cool? We saw the
ark and you know, you were describing

85
00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:58.920
how exacting God is. You can't
walk through there and not know that there's

86
00:06:58.959 --> 00:07:03.079
a God. Noah did what God
told him do. I mean, inch

87
00:07:03.120 --> 00:07:06.920
by inch built the thing's more than
a half a block long, got three

88
00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:11.399
decks on it, and and even
with all of the animals, and you

89
00:07:11.399 --> 00:07:14.879
know there were draws under the animals
to take care, how to feed them,

90
00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:17.480
take care of the waste. I
mean, God was so precise.

91
00:07:17.639 --> 00:07:23.480
I mean Noah didn't know what an
oar or boat was. He just followed

92
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:28.079
the instruction for the Lord by It
took him one hundred and twenty years to

93
00:07:28.199 --> 00:07:31.920
build it, and for one hundred
and twenty years he evangelized, got not

94
00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:38.639
one convert other than his family and
things started all over again. But but

95
00:07:39.240 --> 00:07:45.000
I say that just to validate your
comment that God makes no mistakes. He

96
00:07:45.079 --> 00:07:50.000
is preside if we follow his word, we've got it made exactly. And

97
00:07:50.439 --> 00:07:58.040
here we are in this fallen world, you know, dealing probably at a

98
00:07:58.120 --> 00:08:03.480
time ralely that we're we're closer to
the last of the last days than we've

99
00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:07.079
ever been. And we look at
the signs and we say, okay,

100
00:08:07.120 --> 00:08:13.639
Lord, you know if this is
your will, then come Maranatha and and

101
00:08:13.639 --> 00:08:18.079
and should you tarry, then what
what are my marching orders? What are

102
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:22.680
the precise things that you need me
to do in order to fulfill you know

103
00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:28.279
your purpose and what your intent is
for this fallen world. As we add

104
00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:31.559
into the final chapter of the Book
of Revelations, well, you know,

105
00:08:33.120 --> 00:08:39.879
just to validate what you're just saying
about how closed things are, Zachariah twelve

106
00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:46.480
says this every nation will turn against
Israel. Says when you touch Israel,

107
00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:52.919
you'll be injured. It'll be lack
a heavy stone exactly. And when when

108
00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:58.159
the nations turn against Israel, God
says, I'm going to take up and

109
00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:01.840
I'm going to find the battle.
Now, let me tell you how close

110
00:09:01.879 --> 00:09:05.600
we are to that about three and
a half weeks ago, I heard the

111
00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:09.159
president not letting now, I heard
the promise, but the President say that

112
00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:15.200
there's only one nation that consistently stands
with us, and that's the United States

113
00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:20.399
of America. But wat's this.
Our president now is a bit wishy washy

114
00:09:20.639 --> 00:09:26.519
in his support for Israel. He
says one thing and then he does another,

115
00:09:26.720 --> 00:09:33.960
So it's there. He's giving more
money to Iran six billion dollars more

116
00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:41.639
money to Ukraine than to Israel.
So something is not there. And the

117
00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:48.799
Democrats are very are divided. You've
got people telling him his support for Israel

118
00:09:48.919 --> 00:09:52.720
has to stop. He's fighting that. So he's in a kondri. If

119
00:09:52.799 --> 00:10:01.399
he bends to that bill, at
that moment, Zachariah chapter twelfth, prophecy

120
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:07.039
will be true. Nation will have
turned against him. And but all I

121
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:11.159
can say then is Kate by the
door. I want to know that I'm

122
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:13.600
on the law side, I think, because we're that close to it.

123
00:10:13.799 --> 00:10:18.639
Yeah, well now more than ever
you would think that the leadership. But

124
00:10:18.679 --> 00:10:24.759
again, we're post Christian and even
though Joe Biden is a Catholic, I've

125
00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:30.799
just said, you know, you
know, being a Catholic myself. They

126
00:10:30.840 --> 00:10:33.200
always talk. They say in the
media that he is a practicing Catholic,

127
00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:39.840
and I say he needs more practice
because because the deal is is where we

128
00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:45.519
are right now and as important as
Israel is to God all the signs that

129
00:10:46.080 --> 00:10:50.600
the Bible talks about, Rollie,
I don't know why this leadership is not

130
00:10:52.200 --> 00:10:56.759
prostrate on its face looking to God
to say, what is it that we

131
00:10:56.879 --> 00:11:01.159
need to do instead of looking at
polling numbers and listening to people who have

132
00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:07.120
no relationship with God whatsoever. And
as you pointed out quite clearly, this

133
00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:13.320
is a spiritual event, a spiritual
event that must be solved with spiritual solutions.

134
00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:18.080
And the spiritual solutions come from the
throne room of God. They do

135
00:11:18.200 --> 00:11:22.159
not come from Washington, d C. I'm sorry to tell you absolutely absolutely.

136
00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:28.320
The issue is this. Our Vice
president said two or three weeks ago,

137
00:11:28.799 --> 00:11:35.200
the greatest problem with facing now is
Islamophobia. And I heard that at

138
00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:39.399
a time when anti symbitism is worse
than it was almost during the time of

139
00:11:39.480 --> 00:11:43.759
Hitler. They said, the worst
problem is Islamophobia. Watch this dynamic.

140
00:11:45.559 --> 00:11:54.000
He's erected of special office to defend
Islam, to stop Islamophobia. When Islam

141
00:11:54.360 --> 00:12:01.440
is committed by its Qoran is tada
of murdering. It says death to Israel,

142
00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:07.279
death to Christians, death to the
United States of American, death to

143
00:12:07.320 --> 00:12:11.320
the infidel infidels. Yes, exactly, So that's that charter. So if

144
00:12:11.360 --> 00:12:16.919
that charter is to kill me,
I need to understand, Hey, don't

145
00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:22.039
protect that or understand exactly what that
means and how we need to respond to

146
00:12:22.080 --> 00:12:26.639
it. See, there'll never be
a lasting piece between Israel and Islam as

147
00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:31.279
long as it's there. But if
the islami is wake up like many of

148
00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:37.440
the Palestinians are doing right now,
and they realize that the true God of

149
00:12:37.559 --> 00:12:41.879
Creator is the God of Abraham,
Isaac and Jacob, and they're racing him.

150
00:12:41.120 --> 00:12:48.399
And so you have Palestinians who are
believe me in Jesus and Messianic Jews

151
00:12:48.480 --> 00:12:54.399
in Israel. They are meeting together
in secret places exactly. And so I

152
00:12:54.440 --> 00:13:00.600
said to you earlier, relationship changes
everything. When people serve the sale God,

153
00:13:00.840 --> 00:13:05.919
the God of Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob, and they come together Palestinian

154
00:13:05.039 --> 00:13:11.919
believers and Jewish believers, that will
give us lasting peace, you see.

155
00:13:11.919 --> 00:13:15.039
And we we're not hearing about that
in the mainstream media. Don't expect to

156
00:13:15.080 --> 00:13:20.000
hear from it. And so our
viewers today are being blessed because we're spreading

157
00:13:20.039 --> 00:13:24.120
the good word of what is going
on here is that there is revival,

158
00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:28.080
believe it or not, that's happening
amongst Muslims. And you've got to think

159
00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:35.440
about what they're what they're doing when
they profess Jesus's Lord and savior in a

160
00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:41.519
sense, and in some families it's
it's a literal death sentence. They they

161
00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:46.279
are disowned and in some cases you'll
have honor killings that are involved as a

162
00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:50.720
result because that's what they believe in. And uh, but the fact of

163
00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:54.559
the matter is is the truth cannot
be denied. And you know, we

164
00:13:54.639 --> 00:14:00.200
hear these stories that have bound Raleigh
that you know Muslims are you know,

165
00:14:00.200 --> 00:14:05.120
they're having dreams, they're they're getting
visions of Jesus and they're being drawn to

166
00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:11.879
the cross and the peace that they
that has eluded them for thousands of years.

167
00:14:13.480 --> 00:14:18.879
They are realizing on behalf of themselves
and their family in the next generation.

168
00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:22.799
It is it is really miraculous when
you think about it. No if

169
00:14:22.840 --> 00:14:28.919
and but's about it and the dynamic. One of the tenants of Islam,

170
00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:33.399
which is mandatory. They are forced
to become a part of it. And

171
00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:39.879
if their eyes are open and they
leave, their sentence is death. You

172
00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:45.440
can't leave the sentences, and so
they are in this catch twenty two.

173
00:14:45.799 --> 00:14:50.480
And the only answer really is to
recognize the God of Abraham, Isaac and

174
00:14:50.559 --> 00:14:56.399
Jacob, and that's what has to
happened. In the meantime, we need

175
00:14:56.440 --> 00:15:03.480
to stand with Israel, and we've
got colleges and universities who are protesting,

176
00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:13.039
saying stop the genocide, stop the
occupation, and these people don't know the

177
00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:18.639
truth. There's no occupation. God
gave the whole land to the Jewish people

178
00:15:18.159 --> 00:15:24.519
most three thousand years ago as ever
lasting covenant. So if there's any occupation,

179
00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:33.399
it is really the Palestinians who are
occupying Jewish land, and the Jewish

180
00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:37.799
government were willing to let them have
Gaza if they're willing to live in peace,

181
00:15:37.879 --> 00:15:41.879
but because of their religion is not
going to happen. Soly this war

182
00:15:41.960 --> 00:15:46.799
will continue. But we need to
pray for the peace of Jerusalem. We

183
00:15:46.840 --> 00:15:50.679
need to stand with Israel. The
Bible commands us to do that, and

184
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:56.320
it's not understood by pastors and believers
less known these college students who are being

185
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:06.720
really driven by Marxist theory that's really
permeating our universities. Well, no doubt.

186
00:16:06.759 --> 00:16:10.840
I mean, you've got professors already
that they come from the Middle East

187
00:16:11.879 --> 00:16:18.080
since in Vitro they've been indoctrinated to
hate Jews. And then you've got all

188
00:16:18.159 --> 00:16:23.559
these countries, these countries that are
depositing billions of dollars into these universities.

189
00:16:23.879 --> 00:16:30.120
And on those dollars, here come
the children of the Middle East. And

190
00:16:30.960 --> 00:16:37.440
what are they doing. We've imported
that hatred into this country and they're influencing

191
00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:41.039
our American kids. Now I'm not
you know what I'm saying here. So

192
00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:45.279
this is what we're dealing with.
I mean, there are a lot of

193
00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:52.159
components and complexities to this hatred that
is spreading through the land. It is

194
00:16:52.240 --> 00:16:56.679
that, without question. See our
millennials, and I would say millennials eighteen

195
00:16:56.879 --> 00:17:06.400
to thirty six. Barne did a
study on them and he says only four

196
00:17:06.519 --> 00:17:12.359
percent of the millennials look at the
world with the biblical worldview. Exactly ninety

197
00:17:12.440 --> 00:17:17.559
six percent of them do not look
at it with the Biblical worldview. So

198
00:17:17.839 --> 00:17:25.400
they are open. They are easy
prey for indoctrination because Barne calls them the

199
00:17:25.559 --> 00:17:30.039
largest generation ever and the most godless
generation ever. They don't know God,

200
00:17:30.480 --> 00:17:33.119
they don't believe in God, they
don't want to have anything to do with

201
00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:38.680
God Almighty. So he calls in
the nuns. Absolutely, you got it,

202
00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:44.599
exactly there, the nuns, not
religious, not Catholic nuns. We're

203
00:17:44.640 --> 00:17:48.599
not talking about it is done nuns
like nothing is. And thirty nine percent

204
00:17:48.640 --> 00:17:55.880
of millennials identified with the LBGT community, thirty nine percent of them, fifty

205
00:17:56.440 --> 00:18:03.640
of them proclaimed that they have some
sort of or emotional disorder, and so

206
00:18:03.160 --> 00:18:11.640
these issues that drive them are just
all of that contributes to making them succeptible

207
00:18:11.200 --> 00:18:18.799
to indoctrination. And the people from
the Middle East and the Palestinians and already

208
00:18:18.839 --> 00:18:23.440
who are and from even the Iranians
they are coming. We're getting money to

209
00:18:23.799 --> 00:18:27.720
educate them, and what they're doing
is in doctrinating our youth, and we're

210
00:18:27.839 --> 00:18:37.160
seeing it now exactly. Well.
Yeah, the thing that's is so interesting,

211
00:18:37.160 --> 00:18:41.279
and going back to your earlier point, that they do not know what

212
00:18:41.319 --> 00:18:45.319
they're responding to and what they say
they believe in, because as you mentioned,

213
00:18:45.319 --> 00:18:52.240
you know, near forty percent of
this group supports the LBGTQ plus agenda.

214
00:18:52.759 --> 00:18:57.640
Well, they would not last very
long in the Middle East because the

215
00:18:57.720 --> 00:19:03.400
Muslims are are quite definitive and how
they handle gay and lesbians. Right,

216
00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:11.680
Rashida to leave a congresswoman who's a
Muslim. Outside of her office door,

217
00:19:11.200 --> 00:19:17.759
she had a Palestinian flag and a
gay Pride flag. Now that's an oxymoron.

218
00:19:18.880 --> 00:19:26.200
Yes, it shows really how how
uninformed she is on the truth.

219
00:19:26.720 --> 00:19:33.559
Exactly. Well, it's a it's
a wonder that a true Muslim, devoted

220
00:19:33.680 --> 00:19:40.039
follower would not go in and and
cause a disturbance there because of that that

221
00:19:40.160 --> 00:19:45.440
conflict, because anything that offends Mohammed
or offends the religion, it's it's death

222
00:19:45.480 --> 00:19:52.400
that you're considered an infidel. Absolutely
right, absolutely absolutely uh and and and

223
00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:59.759
that and that, but that that
contradiction is what we're seeing in this hour

224
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:04.960
across the board. I mean,
it's in Congress, it's in our universes,

225
00:20:06.079 --> 00:20:10.880
our most stellar universes is and it's
all around us, and all the

226
00:20:10.920 --> 00:20:18.359
while the church is eerily silent.
Passes are silent. According to George Bonna's

227
00:20:18.599 --> 00:20:22.759
research on passes, sixty six percent
of passes do not preach from a biblical

228
00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:26.000
basis. How can you create and
you're not using the Bible? But sixty

229
00:20:26.079 --> 00:20:30.559
percent of them are not doing it. So the church is silent on the

230
00:20:30.599 --> 00:20:36.000
matter of Dietrich Bonhoffer says, this
silence and the face of evil is evil

231
00:20:36.039 --> 00:20:40.720
itself exactly, and that is exactly
what we're having to deal with in this

232
00:20:40.880 --> 00:20:42.759
hour. Well, Ralli, I
think that, as you say, in

233
00:20:42.799 --> 00:20:51.119
this hour disappointed time, I am
hopeful that the church is going to wake

234
00:20:51.240 --> 00:20:56.279
up because this is Jesus's institution.
He went to the Cross to establish this

235
00:20:56.400 --> 00:21:03.440
institution. Yes, and in the
early chapters of Revelation, he goes through

236
00:21:03.480 --> 00:21:07.079
the lamp stands lamp stands of the
church and he indicts the churches. And

237
00:21:07.119 --> 00:21:14.640
my prayer is that the churches would
reread the chapters there and see where they

238
00:21:14.720 --> 00:21:18.880
are right now, because if there
was ever a time that the churches needed

239
00:21:19.279 --> 00:21:26.359
to stand on biblical principle and biblical
worldview, it is not. If they

240
00:21:26.519 --> 00:21:30.720
don't, then the Lord himself will
spit them out, reject them, and

241
00:21:30.759 --> 00:21:33.440
when they come face to face with
them, he'll say, leave me,

242
00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:40.920
I do not know you. Wow. Wow, Well, that fits exactly

243
00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:45.359
the mantle God gave me a little
more than a year and a half ago.

244
00:21:45.920 --> 00:21:51.519
My ministry is called Awakening the Voice
of Truth, which is the Word

245
00:21:51.559 --> 00:21:57.519
of God. The trust of that
is to motivate, to challenge, to

246
00:21:57.759 --> 00:22:04.720
counsel, to bold and pastors to
apply the word the Voice of Truth,

247
00:22:04.759 --> 00:22:11.640
which is the Word of God,
directly against the plethora of false narratives that's

248
00:22:11.640 --> 00:22:15.920
causing all of this division, and
the biggest one in that is anti Semitism.

249
00:22:17.079 --> 00:22:19.400
You know, I am African American. You have a group of the

250
00:22:19.960 --> 00:22:26.119
fastest growing cult in the United States
of America now is Black Hebrew Israelites.

251
00:22:27.359 --> 00:22:33.160
They are African Americans who claim they
are the original Jews. It's another form

252
00:22:33.160 --> 00:22:38.000
of replacement theology. It's another form
of anti Semitism. But they are growing

253
00:22:38.119 --> 00:22:44.000
by leafs and bounds. See.
The negative side of it is they are

254
00:22:45.119 --> 00:22:49.680
anti Semitic, and what they're doing
really is marking God's chosen people, which

255
00:22:49.720 --> 00:22:55.920
is marking God exactly. The side
of it is there's something in the African

256
00:22:55.920 --> 00:23:03.279
American community that's causing African Americans to
kind of think, uh, move toward

257
00:23:03.839 --> 00:23:07.200
Israel. Taught God's chosen people.
Now the fact is when his rights,

258
00:23:07.480 --> 00:23:11.960
they're doing it. The wrong way
they're trying to replace them. If we

259
00:23:11.000 --> 00:23:15.920
can just reach out and turn not
from the wrong direction to the right direction,

260
00:23:17.720 --> 00:23:21.480
we'll be in business. See,
you can prove who is and who

261
00:23:21.519 --> 00:23:30.160
is not je with three simple letters
D N A. That will solve the

262
00:23:30.200 --> 00:23:36.480
problem on whatever. But we're caught
up in this. We need the Church

263
00:23:36.920 --> 00:23:41.920
to stand strong like never ever before. We need to be bold. Well,

264
00:23:41.960 --> 00:23:45.599
God didn't give us a spirit of
fear, but a wisdom, power,

265
00:23:45.720 --> 00:23:48.599
love, and a sound mind.
That what we need to do is

266
00:23:48.799 --> 00:23:59.000
use that by standing against the massive
media in this hour that's promoting false narratives.

267
00:23:59.279 --> 00:24:03.640
We have to against it. Well, the one word comes into focus

268
00:24:03.680 --> 00:24:11.519
here once again, Raleigh, because
if you are promoting relationship, then everything

269
00:24:11.599 --> 00:24:17.960
that comes into your orbit you need
to ask yourself that critical question. Does

270
00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:22.559
it add or does it take away
from relationship? If it takes away from

271
00:24:22.680 --> 00:24:30.960
relationship, it's ungodly, isn't it
without a doubt? And what is the

272
00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:33.799
application to prove that? Easy?
The voice of truth, which is the

273
00:24:33.839 --> 00:24:38.960
word of God. Measure it with
the word of God. If it's right,

274
00:24:40.799 --> 00:24:42.519
we know it has come from Jesus, because he is the true,

275
00:24:42.519 --> 00:24:47.119
loving God. If it is false, we know it has come from the

276
00:24:47.240 --> 00:24:52.799
Father of lies. See this battle
between Satan and Jesus still rages on.

277
00:24:53.160 --> 00:24:57.559
Satan went into the garden of Eden, gave them a false narrative Adam,

278
00:24:57.599 --> 00:25:03.759
and he bought the false narrative what
happened the fall of mankind? He went

279
00:25:03.799 --> 00:25:07.839
into the wilderness with Jesus, gave
him three false narrative. Jesus, who

280
00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:11.279
has all power and all the thart
in heaven and earth, didn't use any

281
00:25:11.279 --> 00:25:15.799
of that power. He simply used
the power of the word. He said,

282
00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:21.359
on the other hand, it is
written exactly what do we use today

283
00:25:21.640 --> 00:25:30.480
to decipher truth from error? It
is the unmitigated word of God. And

284
00:25:30.799 --> 00:25:40.319
the proof of holding to relationship is
the fruit of that commitment to relationship will

285
00:25:40.359 --> 00:25:44.880
be quite obvious, won't it.
I mean, relationships will be enlarged,

286
00:25:44.920 --> 00:25:51.200
your influence will be expanded, Joy
will abound. I'm not talking about being

287
00:25:51.240 --> 00:25:55.359
happy. We're talking joy that comes
from the throne room of God, that

288
00:25:55.480 --> 00:26:00.519
is not of this world. And
you will see clear manifestation of that,

289
00:26:00.640 --> 00:26:04.200
will you not? Without question?
Well, give you a quick example of

290
00:26:04.279 --> 00:26:11.839
how this works. One word relationship
changes everything. It eliminates anti semitism,

291
00:26:12.279 --> 00:26:19.440
if the blacks who are trying to
replace yous realize that the Jews of God's

292
00:26:19.519 --> 00:26:25.799
chosen people and we need to reach
out and have relationship with them through Jesus

293
00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:32.960
Christ, it would change that anti
Semitism, racism that's being claimed on whatever

294
00:26:33.000 --> 00:26:41.599
you can be eliminated through our relationship. See, America is not systemically racist.

295
00:26:41.440 --> 00:26:47.359
To be systemically racist, we have
to have laws that support racism.

296
00:26:47.640 --> 00:26:51.000
That was true, that was true
doing slavery, that was true, doing

297
00:26:51.079 --> 00:26:55.039
Jim Crow. But those laws no
longer exist. So if the laws don't

298
00:26:55.079 --> 00:26:59.640
back it up, then our system
is not racist. However, racism does

299
00:26:59.720 --> 00:27:03.039
exis this where in the hearts of
individuals? Exactly? And how do you

300
00:27:03.160 --> 00:27:10.599
remove racism from the heart of individual
through that one word relationship? A genuine,

301
00:27:10.960 --> 00:27:15.720
bornifine relationship across racial lines. I'll
tell you sorry. I was with

302
00:27:15.839 --> 00:27:22.759
Promise Keepers. I was executive vice
president for Global Ministries and a board member

303
00:27:22.799 --> 00:27:26.119
by the name of Claude Branning,
a white brother. He was on the

304
00:27:26.119 --> 00:27:29.519
board of directors. He was from
Florida and I was from Florida, and

305
00:27:29.559 --> 00:27:32.599
man, he just drew me.
He said, Hey, there's Raleigh.

306
00:27:32.599 --> 00:27:34.400
He's from Florida. And then he
told me he was from Clay County.

307
00:27:34.759 --> 00:27:40.759
Hey in Jacksonville, we blacks and
Dubald County say, hey, Clay County

308
00:27:41.119 --> 00:27:44.480
is the home of the clan.
And so when this brother was reaching out

309
00:27:44.519 --> 00:27:47.079
to me, I was kind of
leary. Man, but he but he

310
00:27:47.119 --> 00:27:49.519
wouldn't stop. He told everybody,
Hey, this is Raleigh. Man.

311
00:27:49.559 --> 00:27:53.519
He's from Dubald County. He is
the son of slaves. And man,

312
00:27:53.640 --> 00:27:56.680
man, I'm the son of slave
owners. But man, we have a

313
00:27:56.720 --> 00:28:00.440
relationship. He and I came close
together. He came to a devotional with

314
00:28:00.519 --> 00:28:03.960
his son. I led the devotion
and gave the gospel. His son gave

315
00:28:04.000 --> 00:28:08.400
his life to Jesus Christ. Claude
Brandon and I got closer together. Man,

316
00:28:08.480 --> 00:28:11.759
we just fell in love with one
another. Were there. But here's

317
00:28:11.799 --> 00:28:18.279
the issue. We Claude Brandon and
myself represent an answer to one of Martin

318
00:28:18.359 --> 00:28:22.759
Luther King's dream Exactly the King said
in his dream, I have a dream

319
00:28:22.799 --> 00:28:30.319
that one day the sons of former
slave owners and the sons of former slaves

320
00:28:30.799 --> 00:28:36.519
will come together in relationship at the
table of fellowship. That's exactly what happens

321
00:28:36.519 --> 00:28:41.759
to Claude Branding. Myself. What
changes a racist heart, A genuine bona

322
00:28:41.839 --> 00:28:48.039
fide a finnic relationship across those lines, and we eliminate racism exactly. Well,

323
00:28:48.440 --> 00:28:52.039
you can't give what you don't have, and we get it from the

324
00:28:52.039 --> 00:28:56.359
throne room of God. We must
first come to the cross. That's where

325
00:28:56.680 --> 00:29:03.240
that's where healing will take place.
That's where you know Jesus has sacrificed,

326
00:29:03.279 --> 00:29:08.000
has shed blood. It is you
know for those of us who have experienced

327
00:29:08.039 --> 00:29:15.279
this raleigh, you know it doesn't
get much better. And we tell people

328
00:29:15.440 --> 00:29:22.480
again the gospel message, what it's
all about. And the reason that it

329
00:29:22.559 --> 00:29:27.799
continues to gain traction and people's lives
are changed is because it works. Yes,

330
00:29:29.119 --> 00:29:33.279
yes it does. It is unmitigated, it works without our portion.

331
00:29:33.880 --> 00:29:41.319
Relationship drives and as you said earlier
in my book, I developed eight irrefutable

332
00:29:41.920 --> 00:29:53.160
biblical principles that will initiate, sustain, reconcile any and all interpersonal relationships.

333
00:29:53.599 --> 00:30:00.000
They come from the Bible, and
if we do it, it works.

334
00:30:00.119 --> 00:30:06.319
Date is mandatory commitment to relationship,
number to intentionality, purposal, positive im

335
00:30:06.359 --> 00:30:11.960
plan activity. Sincerity is the willingness
to be vulnerable self explosion. What you

336
00:30:11.000 --> 00:30:17.920
feel and what you think, no
matter what sensitivity, are gaining knowledge to

337
00:30:18.119 --> 00:30:22.319
understand our difference, as the principle
of sacrifice means I give up a high

338
00:30:22.480 --> 00:30:29.759
position and take a lower position to
embrace reconciliation and relationship empowerment, the use

339
00:30:29.839 --> 00:30:34.880
of repentance and forgiveness to sustain a
relationship. And number eight is interdependence.

340
00:30:36.480 --> 00:30:41.519
I need you, you need me, that you need you have something that

341
00:30:41.559 --> 00:30:47.559
I need. When we share that
we come together. Those eight inrrefutable principles

342
00:30:48.240 --> 00:30:56.359
drive relationship, sustain and reconcile any
and every relationship. And it takes two.

343
00:30:56.880 --> 00:31:00.319
It takes two. H it takes
two when we could say it takes

344
00:31:00.359 --> 00:31:04.640
three because we want we want Jesus
in the middle of the two. Uh.

345
00:31:04.759 --> 00:31:10.599
But uh, but certainly and and
because of this and because we are

346
00:31:10.720 --> 00:31:14.440
fallen. Uh, this is a
bit of a process. Uh. You

347
00:31:14.440 --> 00:31:18.920
know, these essential principles you lay
out. I'm sure anybody that is hurting,

348
00:31:19.480 --> 00:31:25.400
is dealing with hatred or hostility,
could say, wow, this this

349
00:31:25.440 --> 00:31:29.319
could change, This could change my
life. And you're exactly right, it

350
00:31:29.359 --> 00:31:33.960
could change your life. But you
need to employ these principles and understand,

351
00:31:34.559 --> 00:31:38.400
uh, you know, just like
what's happened in the Middle East. You

352
00:31:38.480 --> 00:31:42.759
have ancient hatred that's been going on
for thousands of years. But for the

353
00:31:42.799 --> 00:31:48.880
grace of God and Uh, the
imposition of the Lord and Savior and the

354
00:31:48.960 --> 00:31:52.519
King of Kings. It's not going
to happen overnight. It's going to be,

355
00:31:52.079 --> 00:31:56.799
you know, a committed process that
you must go through right, and

356
00:31:56.960 --> 00:32:00.559
no if and buts about it.
It Uh when you mentioned that. See,

357
00:32:00.599 --> 00:32:07.640
I use the marriage analogy foundationally for
every principle, meaning this, the

358
00:32:07.720 --> 00:32:15.960
same stuff it taks to initiate,
sustain, and reconcile marriage issues and marriage

359
00:32:15.960 --> 00:32:22.200
conflicts is the same thing it takes
for any and all relationships. I call

360
00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:28.079
it commitment to relationship exactly. Like
Ruth said to Naomi, Ruth was a

361
00:32:28.079 --> 00:32:30.079
gentile name, it was a Jew. She said, don't urge me to

362
00:32:30.160 --> 00:32:32.599
leave you. The return from following
you from where you go, I will

363
00:32:32.640 --> 00:32:36.720
go where you lodge, I will
lodge. Your people will be my people

364
00:32:36.839 --> 00:32:39.319
like people God. And where you
die, they I'll be bettered. Now

365
00:32:39.400 --> 00:32:44.599
that's a commitment exactly. How do
you how do you maintain commitment? You

366
00:32:44.680 --> 00:32:50.720
must learn this key lesson how to
resolve conflict. What does it take to

367
00:32:50.759 --> 00:32:55.880
resolve conflict. Dialogue counsel culture.
Today we can't dialogue because the counsel on

368
00:32:55.920 --> 00:33:01.079
another. But here here is here's
dialogue. Rule House says this about dialogue.

369
00:33:01.319 --> 00:33:05.960
Dialogue is to love with blood is
for the body. When the flow

370
00:33:06.039 --> 00:33:09.039
of blood stops, the body dies. When dialogue stop, love dies and

371
00:33:09.119 --> 00:33:17.359
resentment is born. But dialogue can
initiate, sustain, and reconcile any relationship.

372
00:33:17.400 --> 00:33:22.599
The key both parties, as you
said, must be committed to dialogue

373
00:33:22.720 --> 00:33:29.440
and pursue dialogue relentlessly. If you
understand that principle and you have dialogue,

374
00:33:29.480 --> 00:33:32.720
dialogue is I listen to you,
you listen to me. I see things

375
00:33:32.759 --> 00:33:37.759
through your eyes and feel what you're
feeling. You see things through my eyes

376
00:33:37.799 --> 00:33:40.440
and feel what I'm feeling. When
we do that, it is impossible to

377
00:33:40.559 --> 00:33:45.559
not have common ground and have genuine
relationship. It works in marriage, it

378
00:33:45.640 --> 00:33:51.200
works in ministry, It works between
brothers, It works between blacks and white,

379
00:33:51.400 --> 00:33:55.160
it works between jew and gentile.
And that happens we have the relationship

380
00:33:55.240 --> 00:34:01.119
that honors Almighty God. Well in
the Old Testament, God puts it quite

381
00:34:01.160 --> 00:34:07.640
plainly, and this keeps cycling back
into my orbit rawly. Is that it's

382
00:34:07.680 --> 00:34:12.199
a choice between life and death.
You know, the Jews talk about in

383
00:34:12.280 --> 00:34:15.159
terms of Lucheim. You know,
it is, it is the celebration of

384
00:34:15.239 --> 00:34:20.440
life all that we do. You
know, I'd asked earlier, you know,

385
00:34:20.480 --> 00:34:24.280
and I pose the critical question does
it add or take away? Well,

386
00:34:24.679 --> 00:34:29.960
you know, the foundational principle here
is does it promote life? For

387
00:34:30.079 --> 00:34:34.960
death? Am I making a choice
for life or for death? And and

388
00:34:36.039 --> 00:34:39.519
that's a tough answer today in this
culture that we live in, because we

389
00:34:39.599 --> 00:34:45.400
somehow have found a way to embrace
death and make it acceptable. And you

390
00:34:45.480 --> 00:34:50.039
know, and the thing is is, we're all we're paying an incredible price,

391
00:34:50.039 --> 00:34:53.599
a price because, as the Book
of Ecclesiasts says, because sin isn't

392
00:34:53.639 --> 00:35:00.360
reconciled immediately, it gets much more
complicated, it really does. He does,

393
00:35:00.400 --> 00:35:02.679
doesn't it? Know? If what's
about it? You know? Paul

394
00:35:02.800 --> 00:35:08.039
says this, to die is gain
because as a believer, when we die,

395
00:35:08.239 --> 00:35:13.519
we go into the homes of Jesus. But if we remain, he

396
00:35:13.559 --> 00:35:15.719
said, that's Christ. And so
what did we do it remain? We

397
00:35:15.800 --> 00:35:20.440
have to stay on the battlefield.
We have to reach out, we have

398
00:35:20.519 --> 00:35:23.639
to love our neighbor, we have
to do what we can to provoke Jewish

399
00:35:23.639 --> 00:35:30.400
people to jealousy so that they would
embrace their Messiah. We have to stamp

400
00:35:30.440 --> 00:35:35.800
out with genuine relationship racism. We
have to see one new humanity, jew

401
00:35:35.800 --> 00:35:40.559
and gentile coming together as one.
Because Jesus commanded oneness John thirteen thirty four,

402
00:35:40.760 --> 00:35:45.960
Jesus prayed for oneness John seventeen.
Jesus went to the cross, and

403
00:35:46.000 --> 00:35:51.519
he died for oneness, not only
for salvation, but died for one.

404
00:35:51.519 --> 00:35:54.360
In so Ephesians two fourteen, He's
our peace who broke down the barriers to

405
00:35:54.440 --> 00:35:58.960
dividing all the hostility between the two
groups, so that he could make the

406
00:35:58.960 --> 00:36:04.519
two groups into one new man,
thus establishing peace. We understand that dynamic

407
00:36:04.599 --> 00:36:09.639
and live that principle. We will
see relationships that are strengthened by the word

408
00:36:09.679 --> 00:36:15.280
of God and Heaven. And here's
what God says. See. God's shirt

409
00:36:15.320 --> 00:36:19.840
of reconciliation is the top button.
Hey, if I take this shirt and

410
00:36:19.880 --> 00:36:23.920
I start buttoning together like this like
that, because you know, old man

411
00:36:24.000 --> 00:36:29.639
and boys. But if I button
the top button first, every other button

412
00:36:29.679 --> 00:36:35.239
and buttonhole falls in line. So
God's shirt of reconciliation the top button for

413
00:36:35.280 --> 00:36:38.039
his shirt is you and gentile want
a messiah. He says, if we

414
00:36:38.079 --> 00:36:43.679
get that one right, he'll handle
the black, white, brown real even

415
00:36:43.800 --> 00:36:47.480
husband and wife issues will have peace. See the peace in verse fourteen of

416
00:36:47.559 --> 00:36:53.519
Ephesians two is shaloom, but peace
that is established because of one new man

417
00:36:53.679 --> 00:37:04.079
relationship. That piece is defined as
a state of nash Old tranquility. That's

418
00:37:04.599 --> 00:37:08.880
that's what we need today more than
anything else, without a doubt. We're

419
00:37:08.880 --> 00:37:13.639
talking with doctor Raleigh Washington his book
One Word, The Cure for Hurt,

420
00:37:13.920 --> 00:37:21.320
Hatred, and Hostility. Raleigh,
you know in in hearing you out,

421
00:37:21.519 --> 00:37:27.880
uh, you know, we must
again appreciate that before Jesus we were at

422
00:37:28.039 --> 00:37:32.960
enmity with God. Yes, and
when you said the veil was was separated

423
00:37:34.320 --> 00:37:39.880
and we were able to come into
relationship with God solved so many problems,

424
00:37:39.920 --> 00:37:45.039
didn't it. It solves all of
the problems. I mean that that is

425
00:37:45.079 --> 00:37:52.239
the ultimate problem life. Jesus says
this, I'm the way, I'm the

426
00:37:52.360 --> 00:37:57.519
truth. I'm the life. No
one comes to God the Father except by

427
00:37:57.880 --> 00:38:04.440
me. When we understand that foundational
truth and walk in that path, man,

428
00:38:04.760 --> 00:38:08.280
we then know what the final end
is. We didn't have a victory

429
00:38:08.320 --> 00:38:14.239
we didn't have it turning light.
We then can live for our Lord and

430
00:38:14.400 --> 00:38:19.920
live for others because that's the answer. Yeah, rollie, what do you

431
00:38:19.960 --> 00:38:24.559
say to people who you know read
your book and they go okay, relationship,

432
00:38:24.599 --> 00:38:30.079
I understand relationship is absolutely important.
But what happens if the other person

433
00:38:30.119 --> 00:38:37.800
doesn't want a relationship with me?
That is great? I believe this.

434
00:38:38.840 --> 00:38:50.119
If we are committed to our Lord
understands sacrificial love, then we need to

435
00:38:50.199 --> 00:38:54.719
know. Let's reach out where relationship
should happen. And if we get turned

436
00:38:54.719 --> 00:39:00.400
down, go back again. We
get turned down, go back again.

437
00:39:00.760 --> 00:39:04.679
If we get turned down, go
back, go back as many times as

438
00:39:04.800 --> 00:39:12.159
is necessary to establish the relationship,
because that's what God said he will bless.

439
00:39:12.639 --> 00:39:19.079
And so if in first you don't
succeed, then try and try again.

440
00:39:19.199 --> 00:39:25.159
See, love has no bounds if
you indeed motivated by love and genuine

441
00:39:25.199 --> 00:39:30.840
love and you continue to go after
it. Uh, you just can't be

442
00:39:31.000 --> 00:39:37.239
turned down by a relationship God wants
to happen. So to me, it's

443
00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:45.199
purposeful, it's positive, it's planned, that's intentionality. Relationship doesn't it doesn't

444
00:39:45.239 --> 00:39:49.159
happen accidentally. Listen to a marriage. How do you how do you get

445
00:39:49.159 --> 00:39:53.159
married, you you first have to
you attracted to someone, well, if

446
00:39:53.199 --> 00:39:57.360
you don't ask them for a date, nothing will happen. If you ask

447
00:39:57.400 --> 00:40:00.320
them for a date, and if
you don't ask them to marry you will

448
00:40:00.360 --> 00:40:02.000
happened. If she doesn't say yes, it is not going to happen.

449
00:40:02.039 --> 00:40:07.320
So you have to you have to
have that date. You have to court

450
00:40:07.360 --> 00:40:09.519
her, you have to ask them
for a hand in marriage, you set

451
00:40:09.559 --> 00:40:15.039
a marriage date and then the marriage
take place. You have honeymoon after that,

452
00:40:15.440 --> 00:40:17.280
and as Chucks wand I'll always say
it, after that, roll up

453
00:40:17.320 --> 00:40:22.920
your sleep, because it's hard work
from that point on, exactly exactly,

454
00:40:23.440 --> 00:40:28.400
I love swindle. You know.
The other thing I think to consider here,

455
00:40:28.480 --> 00:40:35.639
ROLLI and help me in explaining this
is that sometimes we need to understand

456
00:40:36.679 --> 00:40:40.559
what the relationship is, how we're
defining it. Because sometimes you know,

457
00:40:40.960 --> 00:40:46.679
you've been using marriage as an example. I find it interesting that the couples

458
00:40:47.039 --> 00:40:52.679
you know will have a different idea
of what the marriage relationship is, so

459
00:40:52.840 --> 00:40:59.800
you must agree on what it is. If your idea of the relationship,

460
00:41:00.199 --> 00:41:06.280
for example, is driven more by
sex than just being around the person and

461
00:41:06.400 --> 00:41:08.719
having a friendship, then you're going
to have. You're going to have a

462
00:41:08.760 --> 00:41:13.679
conflict here, right, Listen.
I have an answer for that, and

463
00:41:13.679 --> 00:41:21.519
it's in the book. I quote
it rule how Miracle of dialogue? Okay,

464
00:41:21.760 --> 00:41:24.360
and that is you have to Now
the question is how do you do

465
00:41:24.440 --> 00:41:30.079
that dialogue? Because watch this.
If two people look at the same thing

466
00:41:31.239 --> 00:41:38.440
from different directions, they have two
separate perceptions of what it is, and

467
00:41:38.480 --> 00:41:44.320
the perception to the perceiver is reality. And so how do you get that

468
00:41:44.800 --> 00:41:47.760
reconciled? Because I'm looking at it
this way and I know I'm right,

469
00:41:47.880 --> 00:41:52.320
she's looking at it that way,
and she knows she's right. How can

470
00:41:52.360 --> 00:41:54.480
I do it? And this happens
black and white anyway, here's what you

471
00:41:54.559 --> 00:41:59.960
have to do. I call it
in the book the mystery of dialogue.

472
00:42:00.519 --> 00:42:05.519
Here's the mystery of dialogue. Because
we're going to have conflict because we see

473
00:42:05.559 --> 00:42:09.679
things differently. We have to stop
in the middle of the argument, and

474
00:42:09.719 --> 00:42:14.920
we have to stop. And when
I'm having an issue with my wife Paulette,

475
00:42:15.480 --> 00:42:19.039
and I'm convinced I'm right, she's
convinced she's right, but it's not

476
00:42:19.079 --> 00:42:23.239
the same, I stopped and I
said, Honey, tell me again what

477
00:42:23.280 --> 00:42:28.360
you're saying. I want to see
it the way you're seeing it, and

478
00:42:28.400 --> 00:42:31.559
I want to feel what you're feeling
when you're sin Now, after I've done

479
00:42:31.599 --> 00:42:34.760
that, I said, say,
honey, can I tell you how I'm

480
00:42:34.800 --> 00:42:40.360
seeing it and how I'm feeling.
Once we do that, it becomes impossible

481
00:42:42.039 --> 00:42:50.400
to not find common ground because I
now realize my perception is true to me,

482
00:42:50.599 --> 00:42:54.320
but it might not be the truth. Be willing to let it be

483
00:42:54.519 --> 00:43:00.039
tested, and on this issue,
I test it by looking at it the

484
00:43:00.119 --> 00:43:05.199
way she's looking at it, feeling
what she's feeling, getting her to look

485
00:43:05.239 --> 00:43:07.440
at it the way I'm looking at
it, feel what I'm feeling when I

486
00:43:07.599 --> 00:43:12.400
use that, That's the mystery of
dialogue. If you can do that in

487
00:43:12.480 --> 00:43:15.840
the heat of battle, I guarantee
you you can resolve conflict. If you

488
00:43:15.960 --> 00:43:20.880
resolve conflict, you will have peace. If you have peace, there's joy

489
00:43:21.199 --> 00:43:24.480
in that relationship, whether it's cross
racial lines, Jew and genile or husband

490
00:43:24.519 --> 00:43:29.960
and wife. Well, that same
example that you just laid out, could

491
00:43:29.960 --> 00:43:36.239
you imagine if university started exercising that
mystery of dialogue? Yes, yes,

492
00:43:36.719 --> 00:43:44.599
yes, absolutely absolutely, instead of
what's happening now, the university presidents and

493
00:43:44.639 --> 00:43:52.039
professors allowing the students to not have
healthy dialogue. Yes, it's either my

494
00:43:52.159 --> 00:43:55.440
way of the highway, and my
way is not based on truth, is

495
00:43:55.519 --> 00:44:01.159
my perception. But see, you
know, you know sincerity. The principle

496
00:44:01.159 --> 00:44:08.159
of sincerity is this the willingness to
be vulnerable self disclosing what I feel,

497
00:44:08.679 --> 00:44:14.480
what I think, what my difference
is, what my perception is. If

498
00:44:14.519 --> 00:44:16.880
I self disclose that, now,
watch this. What I think may not

499
00:44:17.039 --> 00:44:22.519
be true, what I feel may
not be true, what I perceive may

500
00:44:22.559 --> 00:44:24.960
not be true, what my differences
may not be true. All of those

501
00:44:25.039 --> 00:44:30.679
things are truth to me because I
feel them, but none of them can

502
00:44:30.719 --> 00:44:35.840
be factually true. So I have
to be willing to self disclose that in

503
00:44:35.920 --> 00:44:44.960
a dialogue to hear other input so
I can gain truth rather than my perception.

504
00:44:45.239 --> 00:44:47.599
I can gain truth to find out. That's what it is that helps

505
00:44:47.639 --> 00:44:52.159
the dialogue. Yeah, see we
need we need to get you into the

506
00:44:52.199 --> 00:44:57.760
Beltway and you could you could heal
the Democrats and Republicans and maybe they could

507
00:44:57.760 --> 00:45:01.679
be about the people's business in a
way that's pretty constructive, alertly life changing,

508
00:45:01.719 --> 00:45:07.360
I would think. Let me tell
you this, Democrats and Republicans,

509
00:45:07.000 --> 00:45:15.639
the difference right now is toxic but
the one word can change that toxic dynamic,

510
00:45:15.880 --> 00:45:22.280
and that is genuine, bonafide relationship. If that happens across lines,

511
00:45:22.519 --> 00:45:24.519
they're never going to see things the
same way. And that's okay. It's

512
00:45:24.519 --> 00:45:30.119
Ironschabern. They have different views.
But if they have honor and respect for

513
00:45:30.239 --> 00:45:34.360
one another exactly, if they do
that, they will come together. Then

514
00:45:34.400 --> 00:45:40.519
our Congress will get will begin to
solve problems because they are their genuine relationship.

515
00:45:40.719 --> 00:45:46.880
We need to establish genuine relationships between
Democratic Republicans. I'm telling you,

516
00:45:46.920 --> 00:45:52.800
twenty five years ago we could see
something like that. Exactly. It's toxic.

517
00:45:52.920 --> 00:45:57.280
We need to change that. Well, it's definitely been you know,

518
00:45:57.360 --> 00:46:00.840
conditioned over a number of years,
and Raleigh, we've got to do something

519
00:46:00.880 --> 00:46:07.960
to interrupt and break this curse so
to speak, you know, amongst our

520
00:46:07.000 --> 00:46:15.559
politicians and this form of government that
I believe was God given our first president

521
00:46:16.039 --> 00:46:21.199
noted time and again. But for
the hand of divine providence, this great

522
00:46:21.239 --> 00:46:27.079
American idea would have never happened.
Yeah, absolutely, absolutely, no if

523
00:46:27.119 --> 00:46:31.960
and buts about it. You know, our future as a nation lies in

524
00:46:32.000 --> 00:46:37.480
the hands of the people whom we
have placed in office. And I think

525
00:46:37.519 --> 00:46:40.559
we placed a lot of the wrong
people in office. If we the people

526
00:46:42.440 --> 00:46:47.599
I mean, I mean, if
every Christian voted based on his and her

527
00:46:47.840 --> 00:46:55.119
Biblical values, we would have our
Congress, our House of Representative, and

528
00:46:55.159 --> 00:47:02.559
our Senate would be loaded with people
who lived their life like Mike Johnson according

529
00:47:02.599 --> 00:47:07.920
to the Word of God. I'd
say this, Raleigh, the Ten Commandments

530
00:47:07.920 --> 00:47:14.239
would be back in every classroom across
the country. Absolutely, And watch this.

531
00:47:15.199 --> 00:47:21.000
What is the matto of our nation? In God we trust? It's

532
00:47:21.039 --> 00:47:23.320
not the God of Mohammed, it's
not the God of Buddha. It's the

533
00:47:23.320 --> 00:47:29.960
God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. And if indeed we embrace our matto,

534
00:47:30.480 --> 00:47:34.960
it's on every coin and every paper, money and God we trust.

535
00:47:35.039 --> 00:47:42.199
If we just challenge our congressman to
live according to our manto exactly, it

536
00:47:42.239 --> 00:47:45.199
would change things. And that manto
is what we are. You see,

537
00:47:45.920 --> 00:47:52.880
if we were living and voting according
to our Mato, Rashida Talib couldn't be

538
00:47:53.000 --> 00:48:00.519
elected because she can't really say,
affirm the Mato of the United States and

539
00:48:00.559 --> 00:48:04.719
the Bible, because I don't believe
that. Well, if you don't believe

540
00:48:04.760 --> 00:48:07.719
it, you have no business being
in Congress. Amen. Amen, exactly

541
00:48:07.800 --> 00:48:13.599
right. Doctor Rollie Washington is with
us his book One Word The Cure for

542
00:48:13.679 --> 00:48:16.119
Hurt, Hatred and Hostility. ROLLI, we've got about you know, about

543
00:48:16.119 --> 00:48:21.920
two minutes left here. I want
you to again remind everybody these eight essential

544
00:48:21.960 --> 00:48:29.159
principles for relationship and then summarize and
tell people how they can get their hands

545
00:48:29.199 --> 00:48:35.039
on your book. Be happy to
do that, Bill eight irrefutable Principle One

546
00:48:35.199 --> 00:48:42.239
is a mandate. It is mandatory
that we have a relationship with God and

547
00:48:42.320 --> 00:48:47.639
relationship with one another. Intentionality,
purposeful, positive, and plan activity that

548
00:48:47.719 --> 00:48:53.480
facilitates relationship. Commitment to relationship.
We have to be committed to the relationship

549
00:48:53.800 --> 00:48:58.920
instead of when things. When conflict
comes, don't run, dialogue and get

550
00:48:58.960 --> 00:49:04.000
it resolved. Sincerity, the willingness
to be vulnerable, self disclosed, and

551
00:49:04.000 --> 00:49:07.760
when I feel what I think when
I perceive. The principle of sensitivity.

552
00:49:08.000 --> 00:49:15.960
Sensitivity gaining knowledge to relate empathetically with
someone who's different. The principle of sacrifice.

553
00:49:15.239 --> 00:49:20.639
Willing to give up my position to
take a law position in order to

554
00:49:20.719 --> 00:49:29.440
embrace our relationship. Empowerment the use
of repentance and forgiveness to facilitate an atmosphere

555
00:49:29.760 --> 00:49:35.599
of relationship and interdependence. I need
you, you need me. If we

556
00:49:36.199 --> 00:49:44.519
recognize that we can come together as
one, those relationships will change everything exactly.
