Well, welcome to the Bill Martinez

00:00:41.479 --> 00:00:43.759

part of your day. For more info

10
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:50.039
Well, I don't know if you
caught this or not, but Planned Parenthood

11
00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:56.119
was caught stealing taxpayer dollars through COVID
small business loans. I know, no

12
00:00:56.159 --> 00:01:00.280
big surprise here. We know there's
been so much waste and fraud that has

13
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:04.920
been circulating around the whole COVID situation. Well, doctor Alex McFarlane is here

14
00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:11.519
to report on that and how the
COVID small business loans have been supporting the

15
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:15.760
abortion agenda. We're also going to
talk about the Vatican's decision to allow blessings

16
00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:22.120
for homosexual unions. You're it right, the Catholic Church, the Vatican decides

17
00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:27.319
to allow blessings for homosexual unions,
and schools and educators from kindergarten through higher

18
00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:33.519
education have been trying to curb free
speech for years. So that's the start,

19
00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:37.319
just to get us underway, and
I'm sure we'll delve into other topics

20
00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:41.079
as well from a biblical worldview.
Doctor Alex McFarland, welcome to show.

21
00:01:41.159 --> 00:01:42.480
Good to have you with us.
Well, thank you, Bill, it's

22
00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:47.760
great to be on. I appreciate
you so much. I love your insights,

23
00:01:48.519 --> 00:01:52.280
your credit to journalism. I just
wish there were more like you.

24
00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:55.959
Well, that's very kind of you
to say. And I think this is

25
00:01:56.000 --> 00:02:00.799
why we're so simpatico, because we're
both striving for a bit local worldview,

26
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:06.280
pursuing the truth no matter where it
leads, in a environment that's doing everything

27
00:02:06.359 --> 00:02:09.879
they can to stifle the truth and
ignore it at their own peril and injury.

28
00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:15.479
Oh yeah, yeah. And you
know, here's the thing that there

29
00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:22.319
are a lot of people, the
abortion activists, the LGBTQ, transactivists,

30
00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:28.919
the you know, people that want
Islam, you know, mainstreamed in the

31
00:02:28.960 --> 00:02:36.879
Western world. See, here's what
the unintended consequence of the enforced secularism has

32
00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:40.960
done. It's it's made us a
weaker country where a country where it's less

33
00:02:42.039 --> 00:02:47.080
safe, there's more lawlessness, anarchy, corruption in the government. And I've

34
00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:53.280
said this to many secular audiences at
American universities built if you want what we

35
00:02:53.479 --> 00:03:00.520
had, we've had stability, we've
had liberty, we've had prosperity. If

36
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:05.919
you want those things, you have
to tolerate and preserve. What gave us

37
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:09.360
those things, and what gave us
liberty, stability, and prosperity was a

38
00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:15.599
biblical worldview. Well, it's interesting
because you've got two opposing viewpoints of toleration.

39
00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:21.439
If I tolerate the craziness, how
much pain does that offer and what

40
00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:24.520
is the benefit of that? I
mean, this is not some new grand

41
00:03:24.560 --> 00:03:29.319
experiment. This has been going on
since the history of humanity. When we

42
00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:35.400
have disengaged our moral anchorings. You
know, from that which is righteous and

43
00:03:35.439 --> 00:03:38.120
that which God told us to do, and that which is consistent with His

44
00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:44.240
design and function for his entire creation, we violate that we might as well

45
00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:49.400
violate gravity, right, Yeah,
yeah, I mean there are some laws

46
00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:53.439
that exist, they're woven into the
fabric of reality. Some things that are

47
00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:58.719
just beyond our control. But you
know, through my life and Bill,

48
00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:01.400
I became a born again Christian when
I was in college, and I was

49
00:04:01.800 --> 00:04:09.360
very much politically and culturally aware even
before I was a Christian. And I

50
00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:13.199
remember in the mid eighties when I
was in college, Bill, it was

51
00:04:13.240 --> 00:04:19.240
like my professors hated Ronald Reagan,
they hated Conservatism. My professors in my

52
00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:26.399
classrooms at UNC Greensboro, they were
always, you know, grousing about Reagan

53
00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:31.319
and conservatives. And on television was
Billy Graham and Jerry Folwell and they hated

54
00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:36.560
that. And even though did they
ever explain why, Alex No, No.

55
00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:41.959
And I remember I was in a
conversation with some you know, fellow

56
00:04:42.040 --> 00:04:46.519
students that were just cursing about people
like Pat Robertson and Jerry Folwell and Billy

57
00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:51.160
Graham. And I was not even
a believer yet, but I could tell.

58
00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:56.480
I mean, my antenna were up
at least I thought, what's going

59
00:04:56.519 --> 00:05:00.279
on here? You know, I
wasn't a Christian, but I didn't like

60
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:06.000
angrily obsess about conservatives. And I
asked one of my friends, I said,

61
00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:10.800
why do you hate Jerry Folwell?
Because for those that may be and

62
00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:14.199
where Jerry Faulwell, founder of Liberty
University. He was very much in the

63
00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:17.639
news it built. You'll recall in
the eighties and nineties. He was,

64
00:05:17.720 --> 00:05:23.480
you know, pro life, pro
Israel, pro free market economy, and

65
00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:28.680
all the things that you know democrats
hate. And none of my professors nor

66
00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:34.000
my friends could explain their animus.
But I remember this, and I thought

67
00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:41.319
this was ludicrous. But I had
a professor in college who said, the

68
00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:46.879
human race is going to die in
twenty years or less, and it's because

69
00:05:46.959 --> 00:05:54.120
Republicans and their you know, gas
guzzling vehicles and cole and petroleum. And

70
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:59.120
I remember I'm sitting there thinking,
well, you drive a car. I

71
00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:03.480
mean, you're taught about you know, climate change and the bottom line.

72
00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:08.439
This professor, I know it sounds
ludicrous, but you know I've been around

73
00:06:08.439 --> 00:06:12.800
the block a long time. He
said, if Reagan gets a second term

74
00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:17.879
and his energy policies, which aren't
green, the dominoes will follow. The

75
00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:23.800
human race will be extinct within twenty
years. And you may have noticed the

76
00:06:23.879 --> 00:06:27.360
human race is not extinct. It's
still working. But you see, this

77
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:30.439
is the deal. We get these
false prophecies time and time again, and

78
00:06:30.560 --> 00:06:32.680
yet they live another day, which
is you know, shame on the mainstream

79
00:06:32.759 --> 00:06:35.800
media and those that would give them
place. I feel like, look at

80
00:06:35.800 --> 00:06:40.560
if you lose your credibility, it's
kind of like of all people, was

81
00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:46.959
the senator from I believe Massachusetts who
said falso in uno, falso in omnibus.

82
00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:50.560
Now here's one. He has been
consistently false on several occasions, in

83
00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:56.199
fact, caught stealing honor at one
point. And you know, and this

84
00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:59.959
is the thing about the left,
I say, alex and people that get

85
00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:04.160
themselves so ideologically fixed, they end
up self indicting. You know, they'll

86
00:07:04.199 --> 00:07:06.800
make a statement and if you just
listen to it, you go. But

87
00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:11.199
that's what you're doing. You know. Hillary Clinton says, oh, we

88
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:15.120
don't, we don't you know,
we don't imprison our political opponents. Oh

89
00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:18.759
okay, And then how many years
later we're imprisoning our political opponents. Exactly

90
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:25.160
right, Well that's true. And
you know, one of the strategies of

91
00:07:25.279 --> 00:07:30.480
the left has been blamed the victim, you know, accuse the other side

92
00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:35.680
of that, which you covertly are
doing. And so then you have to

93
00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:40.279
confuse what the victim is right,
because that's their thing too. That is

94
00:07:40.279 --> 00:07:45.399
a dynamic. The victim is not
necessarily set. It's whoever they say it

95
00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:46.839
is. And even if you have
to turn it upside down on its head,

96
00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:50.040
like what's happened in Israel. You
know, when you've got Hamas coming

97
00:07:50.079 --> 00:07:58.240
over raping women, mass you know, mass killing innocence, enjoying a party

98
00:07:58.560 --> 00:08:03.199
and doing all the destruction that they
did, and within twenty four hours,

99
00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:07.759
Hamas becomes the victim. Yeah,
exactly, I mean it's crazy. You

100
00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:11.360
know. Shortly after nine to eleven, I was on a show with Chuck

101
00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:20.920
Colson, another late great American patriot. But Colson was talking about Samuel Huntington

102
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:24.199
and his book The Clash of Civilizations. Do you recall that book, Bill,

103
00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:28.600
Yeah, I very much so,
yes, exactly. And Samuel Huntington

104
00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:33.600
was a professor at Harvard for fifty
three years. He was a member of

105
00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:35.960
the Carter administration. I have no
idea whether or not he was a Christian,

106
00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:41.320
but he certainly was no right wing
conservative shill. And in that book,

107
00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:46.879
and of course, Islam in the
West is just one issue but Huntington

108
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:54.799
said, you know, liberal Westerners
are very naive if they think that Islam

109
00:08:54.519 --> 00:09:03.039
will will assimilate to you know,
democratic freespeech each republic, and so it's

110
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:07.960
varsacle. There's never been an inch
of history they give you that indication,

111
00:09:07.639 --> 00:09:13.000
right, and since October seven,
I mean, it is just ludicrous how

112
00:09:13.000 --> 00:09:20.519
many American academics, celebrities, I
mean, from Harvard to the View,

113
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:28.519
we've seen naive liberal Westerners, you
know, coddling Islam, standing against Israel.

114
00:09:28.960 --> 00:09:33.200
And what they don't realize is,
you know, if Hamas had this

115
00:09:33.320 --> 00:09:41.639
worldwide caliphate that they desire, among
the first people that would be beheaded are

116
00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:46.440
the mauthy females that populate the desk
on the View. I mean, it's

117
00:09:46.559 --> 00:09:50.480
crazy. So here's what I'm saying
is, folks, if you want what

118
00:09:50.639 --> 00:09:56.200
we've had, which is liberty,
prosperity, stability, then whether or not

119
00:09:56.240 --> 00:10:01.399
you're born again Christian, you should
at least tolerate what gave us liberty,

120
00:10:01.440 --> 00:10:09.320
stability, prosperity. And without argument, we can prove what gave America two

121
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:16.360
hundred and fifty years of liberty,
prosperity, stability was a Judeo Christian moral

122
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:18.519
foundation, right, and you look
at it. I mean, put those

123
00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:22.480
two entities side by side. Okay, we'll put Islam on one side,

124
00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:28.120
Christianity on the other, and let's
talk about, you know, the positive

125
00:10:28.120 --> 00:10:35.399
contributions to society and to culture.
And the list on the Judeo Christian side

126
00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:39.639
is stellar. It is long and
near infinite, just like our creator God.

127
00:10:41.080 --> 00:10:45.080
And when you look on Islam,
you see all these problems. You

128
00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:52.039
see beheadings, you see them aggressively
taking over, you know, debasing women.

129
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:56.519
I mean, it's really sad.
So everything that Jesus came to give

130
00:10:56.639 --> 00:11:01.360
us in setting the captives free,
Islam says, no, I need to

131
00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:03.559
put you back in the box and
lock up the gate, right, yeah,

132
00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:09.320
exactly. I mean, you know, nowhere is that more historicly visible

133
00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:11.759
than if you go to the Holy
Land. It's been my privilege in doing

134
00:11:11.799 --> 00:11:18.159
research for some books. I've visited
seventy two very famous biblical sites. But

135
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:24.519
in Jerusalem there's the Kidron Valley and
kind of a small little, very small

136
00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:30.080
river that separates the you know,
the West and the East, and you're

137
00:11:30.120 --> 00:11:33.879
looking at Jerusalem, and of course
there's the Old City and the famous the

138
00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:39.480
Temple Mount, but then much of
the modern part of Jerusalem kind of looks

139
00:11:39.519 --> 00:11:43.039
like San Diego, California, and
there's you know, highways and flowers.

140
00:11:43.080 --> 00:11:48.639
It's very beautiful. On the other
side of the Kidron Valley where there's the

141
00:11:48.679 --> 00:11:52.279
Palestinian settlements built, I mean,
it looks like a garbage dom. Oh

142
00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:58.720
yeah, absolutely. And the thing
is Israel has offered to teach them the

143
00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:01.879
technology that they because of what they've
done, you know, historically, I

144
00:12:01.879 --> 00:12:05.200
mean nobody, I mean even Mark
Twain looked at the land said the desert

145
00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:07.879
waves, what are you getting me? And how long did it take the

146
00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:13.240
Jews to come in and innovate and
create an irrigation system that's world class that

147
00:12:13.320 --> 00:12:18.360
I believe anybody on the planet could
benefit from, right, yeah, exactly.

148
00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:22.879
You know May fourteen, nineteen forty
eight, Israel was reconstituted as a

149
00:12:22.000 --> 00:12:26.919
nation, and do you know by
the year two thousand they were one of

150
00:12:26.919 --> 00:12:31.600
the world's superpowers. A friend of
mine in the Pentagon told me about five

151
00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:37.320
years ago, said, hands down
the best military intel in the world.

152
00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:41.679
Okay, aol. Many people twenty
years ago their first exposure to the Internet

153
00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:48.000
was by the disc for America Online. That software was written in Jerusalem.

154
00:12:48.240 --> 00:12:54.480
The world's smallest subway system, a
one point two mile underground subway Israel built.

155
00:12:56.200 --> 00:12:58.600
I thought, I thought, I
thought, I thought the software was

156
00:12:58.600 --> 00:13:01.279
written in al Gore's garage. Oh
yeah, he invented that, right,

157
00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:03.600
Yeah, right, Okay, I
just wanted to clear the record of the

158
00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:07.840
bench. All yeah, exactly.
But you know what, and I'm not

159
00:13:07.879 --> 00:13:13.799
trying to be sarcastic or pejorative,
Bill, but when I'm in Israel,

160
00:13:13.120 --> 00:13:20.679
I mean, you've got beautiful,
prosperous, free, democratic stable except when

161
00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:26.480
there are Hamas rockets being fired Jerusalem
and across the Kidron Valley, it looks

162
00:13:26.559 --> 00:13:31.080
like a landfill and the people are
in bondage. I mean, it's just

163
00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:37.360
very sad. But all of this
has happened. I mean, think about

164
00:13:37.559 --> 00:13:43.759
Israel has done in seventy five years, what Islam has prevented it from happening

165
00:13:45.000 --> 00:13:50.399
over thirteen hundred years, and that
freedom and prosperity and a better life.

166
00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:56.399
I would say, for a Judeo
Christian citizen, we are the blessed recipients.

167
00:13:56.799 --> 00:14:01.039
For the persons living in Islamic countries, they are the victors, but

168
00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:03.120
work in a bottle. The worldview, Yeah, they're they're victims by their

169
00:14:03.159 --> 00:14:07.440
own leadership. And that's real clear. I mean, as you know in

170
00:14:07.480 --> 00:14:11.600
your travels of Israel, as I
did, that was interesting because the Arabs

171
00:14:11.639 --> 00:14:16.000
have no problem coming into areas that
are controlled by the IDF and B by

172
00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:20.080
Jews. In fact, they told
me several said he we feel safe for

173
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:28.320
here in uh In in Jewish controlled
areas as opposed to being where it's Arab

174
00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:31.120
control. And so there are specific
no go zones, as you know,

175
00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:39.120
and no go zones for Israelis.
They cannot go into these occupied areas that

176
00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:45.279
are controlled by by the Palestinians.
And you know, so there's a clear

177
00:14:45.320 --> 00:14:48.799
difference, and we're seeing this clear
difference right now, and I think that

178
00:14:50.120 --> 00:14:54.919
God in his wisdom has pulled back
the veil to allow us to see,

179
00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:58.720
you know, the clear persecution by
the Palestinians, even to this point right

180
00:14:58.759 --> 00:15:05.240
now, Alex where they're trying to
send goods and services and equipment into for

181
00:15:05.360 --> 00:15:13.799
humanitarian purposes, and those trucks are
being hijacked by the Palestinians by Hamas,

182
00:15:13.879 --> 00:15:18.960
just like they hijacked all the money
that was sent to them for the welfare

183
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:22.639
of the citizens there. The Palestinians. And what did they do. They

184
00:15:22.799 --> 00:15:31.600
built a multi gazillionaire tunnel for military
purposes. So they redirected the money for

185
00:15:31.759 --> 00:15:37.919
military purposes and starved to their people. Well, Bill, about five or

186
00:15:37.919 --> 00:15:41.720
six years ago, I remember an
article that came out about a water plant,

187
00:15:43.240 --> 00:15:50.000
and five billion dollars was appropriated to
give fresh water to the Palestinians.

188
00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:56.120
It was a desalination plant, take
seawater, make it potable, drinkable water.

189
00:15:56.480 --> 00:16:00.519
Okay, five billion dollars, the
majority of which came from the coffers

190
00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:07.399
of the United States. Well,
the water desalination plant that would have provided

191
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:15.360
fresh water for millions of poor Palestinian
peasants. It never got built. The

192
00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:21.840
money was squandered. It was used
for bombs, guns, rockets, for

193
00:16:22.279 --> 00:16:30.200
Islamic terrorists to try their centuries long
attempt at exterminating Jewish people. So here's

194
00:16:30.200 --> 00:16:33.960
the thing built. Whenever you enter
into an agreement or a social contract,

195
00:16:34.559 --> 00:16:38.480
there has to be good faith on
both sides of the table. In other

196
00:16:38.519 --> 00:16:45.240
words, even when opposing parties they
disagree. This Okay, look it's going

197
00:16:45.320 --> 00:16:52.000
to be mutually beneficial. It'll be
symbiotic. Let's do this exactly. We

198
00:16:52.159 --> 00:16:56.519
give you five billion dollars, you
provide fresh water for your people. But

199
00:16:57.080 --> 00:17:02.759
in the case, I'm going to
tell you two groups that they do not

200
00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:07.559
act in good faith. In other
words, they don't keep their promises and

201
00:17:07.599 --> 00:17:14.880
they don't do right. Those are
Muslims and Democrats, right I mean.

202
00:17:15.480 --> 00:17:19.079
And also let's let's throw into this
situation because a lot of this stuff,

203
00:17:19.119 --> 00:17:22.039
Alex, this is being like right
now, a lot of pressure from the

204
00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:26.480
United Nations. Well what are they
doing? You know, they're getting involved

205
00:17:26.480 --> 00:17:30.559
here and doing something. You know, the negotiation of peace needs to be

206
00:17:30.920 --> 00:17:37.599
exactly as you said, from the
parties themselves. But you can't negotiate with

207
00:17:37.720 --> 00:17:40.920
the p l O going back to
the years of yes Sir Arafat and this

208
00:17:41.039 --> 00:17:45.640
mentality and of course the ancient hatred
that continues there in the Middle East that

209
00:17:45.720 --> 00:17:48.240
they want Israel wiped out, you
know from you know, from the river

210
00:17:48.359 --> 00:17:55.440
to the sea. So there's no
there's no mutual benefit there, so it

211
00:17:55.440 --> 00:17:59.960
it ends before it even starts.
So and the fact that you would have

212
00:18:00.359 --> 00:18:03.960
you know, our Secretary of State
and a president of the United States trying

213
00:18:03.000 --> 00:18:10.039
to force Israel into something that's untenable
when the United States ourselves would not enter

214
00:18:10.119 --> 00:18:15.839
into this kind of an agreement,
right exactly exactly. So you know,

215
00:18:17.279 --> 00:18:21.799
I really think those of us.
You're a journalist, I'm a minister,

216
00:18:22.039 --> 00:18:26.759
I'm a writer and a professor as
well. Look, we are duty bound

217
00:18:26.799 --> 00:18:32.279
to tell people the truth. And
I got to tell you we're living in

218
00:18:32.319 --> 00:18:37.720
a time where truth is contraband.
But I'm going to speak the truth that

219
00:18:38.799 --> 00:18:45.000
our nation. The greatest favor any
president could ever do the American people is

220
00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:51.440
be a strong friend to the nation
of Israel. Well, that goes back

221
00:18:51.480 --> 00:18:56.319
to the Abrahamic Covenant, right,
and those who are blessed will be blessed,

222
00:18:56.319 --> 00:18:59.759
those who curse will be cursed.
And you look back historically of the

223
00:18:59.799 --> 00:19:04.480
two hundred and what near fifty years
of American history, when America has done

224
00:19:04.519 --> 00:19:10.160
well to and by Israel, it
goes well for us. When we enter

225
00:19:10.240 --> 00:19:12.480
into things and try to force Israel
and do something that's not in their best

226
00:19:12.480 --> 00:19:15.680
interest or that which has been mandated
by God, we get in trouble.

227
00:19:15.920 --> 00:19:21.480
And that's a fact, empirical evidence
that there have been natural disasters on the

228
00:19:21.559 --> 00:19:26.799
hills consistently of our interference. I'm
saying, our America's interference with you know,

229
00:19:26.960 --> 00:19:33.240
Israel's foreign policy or that land because
that land belongs to Israel as given

230
00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:38.400
to them by God. Well,
let me just say this, lest do

231
00:19:38.400 --> 00:19:45.920
anybody think that I'm speaking anecdotally or
talking about something that's you know, really

232
00:19:45.920 --> 00:19:52.240
I can't substantiate. Shortly before Covid, I was in Israel with a group

233
00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:56.799
and we were on the Temple Mount
And if you've been to the Temple Mount,

234
00:19:56.920 --> 00:20:03.000
you know it's it's really amazing.
There's kind of this electricity in the

235
00:20:03.039 --> 00:20:07.039
air. I mean, under that
gold Dome is the rock where Abraham,

236
00:20:08.680 --> 00:20:14.880
Abraham and Isaac went up on Mount
Mariah and Abraham was going to sacrifice Isaac,

237
00:20:15.240 --> 00:20:18.559
and it's just so beautiful. In
the Word of God, it says

238
00:20:18.599 --> 00:20:23.440
God himself will provide the Lamb.
And on that very same range of mountains,

239
00:20:23.480 --> 00:20:30.119
the Mountains of Mariah you can see
slightly to the northwest, is another

240
00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:37.720
mountain called Calvary gold Gotha, where, yes, the Lamb of God was

241
00:20:37.119 --> 00:20:41.640
sacrificed for our salvation. I mean, it's just amazing. William Shakespeare wishes

242
00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:45.279
he could have written a story like
this. We were on the Temple Mount

243
00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:52.440
and a group of about six I'm
going to say there were college age Muslim

244
00:20:52.480 --> 00:21:00.160
girls approached our tour group and they
offered to hand us a little booklet and

245
00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:03.000
it was in a number of languages, but it was like how to become

246
00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:06.079
a Muslim. Now it's interesting,
Hey, Bill, don't have time to

247
00:21:06.119 --> 00:21:08.160
tell you this little story? Can
I have got we got we got time,

248
00:21:08.200 --> 00:21:14.279
I mean we this is the format
of this TV show is such that

249
00:21:14.920 --> 00:21:17.839
we do have more time, So
take your time, go ahead. So

250
00:21:17.839 --> 00:21:22.400
Sore, We're on the Temple Mount
and it's very surreal. We're like ten

251
00:21:22.440 --> 00:21:26.279
feet away, standing near the mosque, and you know, so many thoughts

252
00:21:26.319 --> 00:21:32.200
are going through my mind about you
know, Jesus and the biblical history here

253
00:21:32.279 --> 00:21:37.839
and the history of Israel, and
you know, the Temple Mount is under

254
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:41.880
Islamic control even though it's within the
Old City of Jerusalem. So these girls

255
00:21:42.039 --> 00:21:47.480
approach us, and several are in
burkas. You know, you can only

256
00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:51.400
see their eyes and black burkas.
It's a blistering hot day. Anyway,

257
00:21:51.759 --> 00:21:55.000
she's just kind of a weird,
surreal scene. So this girl hands us

258
00:21:55.039 --> 00:22:00.359
alid little booklet how to become a
Muslim, and she says to me,

259
00:22:00.680 --> 00:22:04.720
and I quote she says, welcome
to Jerusalem, the city of the Prophet

260
00:22:04.839 --> 00:22:11.680
Mohammed. And I looked around and
I said, well, actually, historically

261
00:22:11.559 --> 00:22:17.559
it's not verified that Mohammed was ever
in Jerusalem. How do you say Jerusalem

262
00:22:17.839 --> 00:22:22.559
is the city of the prophet Muhammed
when actually the Jewish people were here thirty

263
00:22:22.599 --> 00:22:26.759
five hundred years before the birth of
Mohammad in five seventy one a d.

264
00:22:27.480 --> 00:22:30.200
Now I'm thinking, hey, if
I'm going to get killed, I may

265
00:22:30.200 --> 00:22:34.240
as well get killed on the Temple
mount based on the truth. Yeah,

266
00:22:34.319 --> 00:22:38.799
exactly. Yeah. So anyway,
my group and I was with an air

267
00:22:38.839 --> 00:22:44.000
Force colonel, I was with a
pilot for a major airline. I was

268
00:22:44.039 --> 00:22:48.119
with some of the leadership of Focus
on the Family. And our group is

269
00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:52.960
there and we're ten feet away from
the Temple and the mosque rather and we're

270
00:22:53.279 --> 00:23:00.519
debating Islam versus Judaism. So the
wildest thing I quote, and I'm sharing

271
00:23:00.559 --> 00:23:07.559
this story for the benefit of those
that may be naive about the intent of

272
00:23:07.599 --> 00:23:12.400
the Palestinians, and the girl says
to me, Bill, I'm not going

273
00:23:12.480 --> 00:23:18.240
to repeat it for batim because it's
unrepeatable, but she basically was cursing and

274
00:23:18.640 --> 00:23:25.400
pronouncing anathemas over the Jewish people,
right, And she said to me,

275
00:23:26.319 --> 00:23:32.000
all of this archaeology is false.
She said, the archaeology was put here.

276
00:23:32.079 --> 00:23:34.559
And here's what she said, my
hand to God, and I'm quoting,

277
00:23:36.000 --> 00:23:41.799
she said, all of this archaeology
was planted by those lying rats,

278
00:23:41.119 --> 00:23:45.759
the Jews. Now, before I
finish the story, let me just say

279
00:23:45.759 --> 00:23:53.200
parenthetically, I've spent thirty five years
writing twenty books, writing hundreds of journal

280
00:23:53.319 --> 00:24:00.000
articles. I've interviewed experts, liberal, conservative, Christian, non Christian,

281
00:24:00.160 --> 00:24:04.160
and I personally have visited seventy two
sites in the Holy Land, and I've

282
00:24:04.160 --> 00:24:10.160
been in libraries on five continents.
Bill, let me just say, one

283
00:24:10.200 --> 00:24:15.240
of the most well substantiated, well
authenticated realities of the ancient world are the

284
00:24:15.359 --> 00:24:23.359
archaeological sites that validate the word of
God but also validate the presence of Jewish

285
00:24:23.440 --> 00:24:29.920
people in the land of Israel from
three millennia before the birth of Islam.

286
00:24:30.359 --> 00:24:34.640
So, when this person on the
Temple Mount said to me that it was

287
00:24:34.720 --> 00:24:40.160
all fake and planted, I mean, that's just ludicrous. That is literal,

288
00:24:40.279 --> 00:24:45.480
right, So she said, and
I quote, and again we're having

289
00:24:45.519 --> 00:24:49.400
this conversation on the Temple Mount.
She said, the Jews have no place

290
00:24:49.480 --> 00:24:55.799
here. The Jews must go live
at the bottom of the sea. Now,

291
00:24:56.480 --> 00:25:00.880
that was a quote from Yasir Erafat
in nineteen eighty fi for Arafat was

292
00:25:00.920 --> 00:25:07.720
in a media interview and the UN
had really bullied Israel into giving up land

293
00:25:07.799 --> 00:25:12.920
for peace, which never works because
the Palestinians never keep their promise. And

294
00:25:14.519 --> 00:25:19.000
somebody had asked, Yasir Arafat,
you've got land, You've increased your land.

295
00:25:19.119 --> 00:25:22.640
Is that what you want? And
she said, and Airfat goes,

296
00:25:22.839 --> 00:25:26.839
what does the PLO want? We
want Israel driven into the sea. And

297
00:25:27.000 --> 00:25:33.599
so the college girl on the Tiple
Mount was merely parroting and repeating what Airfat

298
00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:37.200
had said. Now, why am
I saying that since the October seventh attack

299
00:25:37.319 --> 00:25:45.640
on Israel and naive Western liberals are
calling on Israel to ceasefire. You just

300
00:25:45.960 --> 00:25:52.319
don't understand Hamas and the PLO.
They don't want a ceasefire. They want

301
00:25:52.440 --> 00:25:59.319
to exterminate a people that they do
not acknowledge the Jewish right to exist.

302
00:26:00.759 --> 00:26:04.200
Well, Golden my air. You
know the last war that she was involved

303
00:26:04.279 --> 00:26:07.519
which ended up, you know,
costing her position. But she said it

304
00:26:07.640 --> 00:26:15.559
quite clearly Alex and that was that
if if Hamas or if the Palestinians were

305
00:26:15.640 --> 00:26:18.519
to drop their weapons, Israel would
drop theirs and there would be peace.

306
00:26:19.240 --> 00:26:26.759
If Israel drops their weapons Hamas or
Palestine, the Palestinians would come in and

307
00:26:26.200 --> 00:26:33.000
annihilate the Israelis. So that's that's
the bottom line. And again, you

308
00:26:33.079 --> 00:26:40.400
know Yasir Arafat certified the doctrine you
know, of the for the Palestinians and

309
00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:47.640
Hamas, and you know these these
these antithical Arab interests who want to wipe

310
00:26:47.680 --> 00:26:51.920
out Israel. And it has been
consistent. And he said basically when he

311
00:26:52.079 --> 00:26:55.640
was alive, that you had to
get one hundred percent because there had been

312
00:26:55.759 --> 00:27:00.039
offerings almost ninety nine percent of what
he wanted, but the one cent that

313
00:27:00.279 --> 00:27:03.640
wasn't going to happen was that Israel
was going to be in the Zea right.

314
00:27:04.119 --> 00:27:08.920
And he told he told the rest
of his followers that if anybody should

315
00:27:08.960 --> 00:27:15.640
ever compromise less than one hundred percent
with Israel over land, then they and

316
00:27:15.680 --> 00:27:21.559
their families should be murdered. Yeah. Yeah, it's very much a scorched

317
00:27:21.680 --> 00:27:27.039
earth mentality, isn't it. Yeah, it's nothing about coexistence. And to

318
00:27:27.119 --> 00:27:30.000
your whole point when we first started
all this, and you and I've had

319
00:27:30.039 --> 00:27:36.839
this discussion before, is that we
cannot cohabitate with people with this mindset anymore

320
00:27:36.920 --> 00:27:41.240
than Israel can cohabitate with them.
Here in America, our constitution is in

321
00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:47.359
direct conflict with the principles and the
tenets of Islam. And we're trying to,

322
00:27:47.680 --> 00:27:52.799
you know, with our modern intellect
and somehow thinking that, you know,

323
00:27:52.279 --> 00:27:57.039
with our open minds, that somehow
we're going to change thousands of years

324
00:27:57.119 --> 00:28:04.039
of ancient hatred. Yeah. And
you know what's so sad is that the

325
00:28:04.640 --> 00:28:14.240
Islamic method of dealing with one's critics
is murder and carnage. I mean,

326
00:28:14.599 --> 00:28:21.039
look at the French Charlie Hebdo the
publication when a cartoonist, you know,

327
00:28:21.200 --> 00:28:25.880
drew a picture of Mohammed and then
you know, Muslims went in the offices

328
00:28:25.960 --> 00:28:30.160
and shot up the place exactly.
You know. Let me say, as

329
00:28:30.160 --> 00:28:33.920
a Christian, if people have made
fun of me, I've got I get

330
00:28:33.160 --> 00:28:37.079
hate mails. Sometimes doesn't bother me. I mean, I want people to

331
00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:44.319
know Christ. But listen, if
someone wants to make fun of me or

332
00:28:45.319 --> 00:28:49.400
denigrate God, I'm sorry for that, but I'm certainly not going to resort

333
00:28:49.480 --> 00:28:55.640
to violence. Never would. I'll
put it this way. And I said

334
00:28:55.680 --> 00:29:00.240
this in some interviews after nine to
eleven because journalist would say, okay,

335
00:29:00.279 --> 00:29:04.480
what about the Crusades in the eleven
hundreds, Well, something like the Crusades

336
00:29:04.759 --> 00:29:15.960
or Jim Jones or David Koresh that
happened when professed Christians violated their scriptures.

337
00:29:17.599 --> 00:29:22.519
Nine to eleven happened when Muslims followed
their scriptures. It's a big difference.

338
00:29:22.759 --> 00:29:25.759
Yeah, exactly. A good point
there. Well, Alex, we've got

339
00:29:26.119 --> 00:29:30.039
about twenty minutes left here, and
I did want to address what's going on

340
00:29:30.160 --> 00:29:34.759
with the latest synod in Rome.
The Vatican has announced this past week that

341
00:29:34.880 --> 00:29:41.839
they're going to allow blessings for homosexual
unions, which is quite in contrast with

342
00:29:41.039 --> 00:29:45.920
what the Vatican's position has traditionally been, and that is that how can you

343
00:29:47.119 --> 00:29:55.880
bless sin? Yeah, well,
Pope Francis has been a very Uncatholic pope.

344
00:29:56.000 --> 00:30:00.319
Let me say, and look,
as a Protestant, don't bash Catholics.

345
00:30:00.359 --> 00:30:04.920
I know a lot of Catholics that
are born again. And my goodness,

346
00:30:07.079 --> 00:30:12.480
Cardinal John Ratzinger, who became Pope
Benedict the sixteenth he was a great

347
00:30:12.599 --> 00:30:17.000
pope, and I mean some of
his books. I'm not going to take

348
00:30:17.039 --> 00:30:21.599
up all our time to talk about
some of his books read like apologetics books.

349
00:30:21.720 --> 00:30:23.480
Well it is. The guy was
brilliant. He's a total academic.

350
00:30:23.559 --> 00:30:30.720
You're exactly right and very orthodox Christian. But Pope friends, as you may

351
00:30:30.799 --> 00:30:33.559
recall about four or five years ago, said that atheists would go to heaven.

352
00:30:33.960 --> 00:30:40.000
He also said, profess Christians that
vote for Donald Trump aren't Christian.

353
00:30:41.920 --> 00:30:49.319
And so this is a social justice
warrior pope who has very heretical theology.

354
00:30:49.960 --> 00:30:53.000
Now let me just say this.
I was on a news interview yesterday and

355
00:30:53.119 --> 00:31:00.319
several people said, well, the
idea that he said priest can bless gay

356
00:31:00.559 --> 00:31:06.440
unions, that's not really true.
It's fake news. But look, Reuter's

357
00:31:06.519 --> 00:31:11.359
reported it, the Guardian, the
Associated Press, and the Vatican News Office

358
00:31:11.480 --> 00:31:18.440
has not denied it. So I
think it's very credible. But folks,

359
00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:23.200
let me just say, I don't
care who you are, a theologian,

360
00:31:23.279 --> 00:31:32.279
an academic, or the papal seat
of the Holy See. If you deny

361
00:31:32.680 --> 00:31:37.960
and contradict scripture, you're in the
wrong. And Cope Francis is in the

362
00:31:38.079 --> 00:31:44.000
wrong on this. The word of
God is clear, whosoever will may come

363
00:31:44.119 --> 00:31:48.759
and be saved. But marriage is
between a man and a woman and gay

364
00:31:48.920 --> 00:31:56.039
coupling, that's not marriage, and
it's nothing that a minister of Christ could

365
00:31:56.319 --> 00:32:01.720
or should ever bless exactly. Well, you know the uh it is going

366
00:32:01.799 --> 00:32:07.960
to uh no doubt cause an issue
in the Catholic Church and uh and being

367
00:32:07.079 --> 00:32:12.319
raised Catholic myself, Alex, Uh, it grieves me to see you know,

368
00:32:12.440 --> 00:32:15.960
what is happening here. And hopefully
the Catholic Church responds to this because

369
00:32:16.279 --> 00:32:21.200
there needs to be you know,
clarity. If if there's some misunderstanding,

370
00:32:21.720 --> 00:32:24.319
then speak now or forever hold your
peace. Uh. But there has been

371
00:32:24.359 --> 00:32:30.960
a trajectory with this papacy that you
know, lends some credibility and just makes

372
00:32:31.039 --> 00:32:35.640
you have some doubt that there is
that possibility. The other thing is is

373
00:32:36.119 --> 00:32:37.920
uh that the Pope did that a
lot of people are not aware of.

374
00:32:38.319 --> 00:32:42.799
Is he kind of he stacked the
court, you know, in a way

375
00:32:42.880 --> 00:32:45.519
he did what the Democrats always wanted
to do with the Supreme Court. They

376
00:32:45.559 --> 00:32:50.759
stacked it. He brought in a
lot of liberal cardinals into the Synod that

377
00:32:50.880 --> 00:32:53.640
heretofore have not been represented, and
he brought him in. He brought him

378
00:32:53.680 --> 00:32:58.039
in with voting power. So and
I'm not talking about just a couple.

379
00:32:58.079 --> 00:33:00.440
I mean we're talking I don't know, maybe four or five, five dozen

380
00:33:01.559 --> 00:33:05.880
brought in. So he's kind of
packed the court in a way here to

381
00:33:07.319 --> 00:33:09.960
you know, to fulfill his agenda
in his direction. But all that aside,

382
00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:16.640
Okay, this all comes under the
serious uh the serious filefolder called apostasy.

383
00:33:17.359 --> 00:33:21.960
We know that in the end of
days that this is what will happen.

384
00:33:22.400 --> 00:33:25.640
There will be a great apostasy.
We're seeing, you know, traditional

385
00:33:25.799 --> 00:33:30.720
Protestant churches that are breaking up,
and they're breaking up over uh, the

386
00:33:31.880 --> 00:33:38.519
the fracturing of apologetics, of the
doctrine, the violation of traditional doctrinal agreement.

387
00:33:38.880 --> 00:33:43.839
They're throwing it out the window.
And you've got you've got these churches,

388
00:33:44.319 --> 00:33:47.319
uh that that are breaking up massively. And this is all part of

389
00:33:47.400 --> 00:33:52.000
the apostasy that we told that will
happen. And guess what, it will

390
00:33:52.079 --> 00:33:54.440
continue. It's it's not going to
just stop here. It's not just a

391
00:33:54.920 --> 00:33:59.440
one off kind of deal. Right, We're we're down that road where these

392
00:33:59.519 --> 00:34:06.079
churches are trying to assimilate into the
culture and not be a catalyst for good,

393
00:34:06.559 --> 00:34:12.039
but to embrace the culture and not
be the agent, that clarifying agent

394
00:34:12.440 --> 00:34:16.599
that the culture, the culture needs
to have, and that God had created

395
00:34:17.280 --> 00:34:23.559
his church to do. You know, Bill, you mentioned apostasy, and

396
00:34:23.880 --> 00:34:30.840
that's true. The Greek word for
apostasy is the same word for riot.

397
00:34:30.760 --> 00:34:37.800
And folks, God has given the
human race his word that's called the Bible,

398
00:34:37.679 --> 00:34:40.480
over and over and we could talk
about this, Bill, you and

399
00:34:40.559 --> 00:34:45.519
I, as you know, we
could do an entire show on why we

400
00:34:45.880 --> 00:34:49.519
believe that the Bible is indeed the
word of God. I believe it.

401
00:34:49.599 --> 00:34:52.719
I believe Bible is God's word.
I think compelling lines of evidence point to

402
00:34:52.840 --> 00:34:57.440
that, not the least of which
is the words of Christ himself. And

403
00:34:57.519 --> 00:35:01.559
John ten thirty five, think about
this. Jesus said the scripture cannot be

404
00:35:01.679 --> 00:35:07.440
broken, all right. Either he
was right or he was wrong. So

405
00:35:07.880 --> 00:35:15.239
if you know, suddenly gay marriage, homosexual activity, suddenly that's okay.

406
00:35:16.320 --> 00:35:22.320
Well, if it's now orthodox and
true and okay, then that must mean

407
00:35:22.400 --> 00:35:27.639
that Jesus Christ was wrong. Yeah, he liked that's an impossibility. So,

408
00:35:27.800 --> 00:35:30.679
folks, it's going to take courage. And I want to say to

409
00:35:30.800 --> 00:35:35.360
anyone watching who may be a minister, or in a position of leadership,

410
00:35:35.360 --> 00:35:40.840
a Sunday school teacher, whomever.
Look, we must stand with and really

411
00:35:42.199 --> 00:35:47.639
stand under the authority of God's word
exactly. The opinion of human beings is

412
00:35:47.800 --> 00:35:51.719
ever changing. By the way,
when I was in graduate school, I

413
00:35:51.880 --> 00:35:58.360
mindored in developmental psychology and we had
a psych professor from UCLA Medical School.

414
00:35:58.440 --> 00:36:01.400
This is twenty years ago. But
here's the thing, folks. No one

415
00:36:01.719 --> 00:36:10.320
is born gay or transgender, same
sex ideation, same sex attraction, or

416
00:36:10.480 --> 00:36:19.639
gender dysphoria. These are all mental
leanings that come about through pain and abuse.

417
00:36:20.480 --> 00:36:24.400
So what's so sad is whether it
be the apostate United Methodist Church,

418
00:36:24.840 --> 00:36:35.920
the apostate Catholic the wings of Catholicism
that are apostate. Look, we're affirming

419
00:36:36.639 --> 00:36:43.840
something that is a a an emotional
and mental and psychological problem, and homosexual

420
00:36:43.920 --> 00:36:51.559
activity. Read first First Corinthians,
chapter six. Unrepentant homosexuals don't go to

421
00:36:51.639 --> 00:36:57.320
heaven right now, Alex sadil is
is that? See, it's we can't

422
00:36:57.400 --> 00:37:01.760
we can't argue people into heaven,
right And what you're sharing and I appreciate

423
00:37:01.800 --> 00:37:07.280
it so transparently and vulnerably and honestly
is the word of God. But look

424
00:37:07.280 --> 00:37:10.760
at this is what we're saying.
It's up to you to own your own

425
00:37:10.920 --> 00:37:15.360
truth. You know, God holds
us responsible for So if there is something

426
00:37:15.480 --> 00:37:20.679
here that has said that challenges you, God bless you. That's awesome because

427
00:37:20.960 --> 00:37:24.000
what that's telling you is that you
need to do a You need to do

428
00:37:24.119 --> 00:37:29.239
your own research and check into it
for yourself. Right, Yeah, you

429
00:37:29.360 --> 00:37:32.239
do, because especially if you're a
leader, you've got to know what you

430
00:37:32.400 --> 00:37:38.639
stand on. There is no leader
in history that can stand on less than

431
00:37:38.760 --> 00:37:45.119
solid ground and be effective. Yeah, in every generation, the church has

432
00:37:45.239 --> 00:37:50.119
to recommit itself to the authority of
Scripture. There was a book some years

433
00:37:50.119 --> 00:37:53.159
ago a guy named Harold Linzil.
It was a book called The Battle for

434
00:37:53.280 --> 00:37:58.320
the Bible. And do we love
you? Of course, we love people,

435
00:37:59.000 --> 00:38:02.719
will do anything to help another a
fellow human being, and will do

436
00:38:02.840 --> 00:38:07.400
anything we can to help show the
reality of the Lord Jesus Christ. But

437
00:38:07.840 --> 00:38:13.280
SEUs Lewis said this. In the
late sixties, it was published a compendium

438
00:38:13.360 --> 00:38:17.400
of Lewis's essays called God in the
doc meaning the docket the court room.

439
00:38:17.599 --> 00:38:22.800
In other words, God is on
the witness stand guilty until proven innocent,

440
00:38:22.360 --> 00:38:27.800
and ce s Lewis in that book, there's a line he said that he

441
00:38:28.119 --> 00:38:35.599
stood against clergy who undermine and deny
the very doctrines they were paid to uphold

442
00:38:35.920 --> 00:38:44.159
in the fold. That's important.
And we, ministers and whomever listen,

443
00:38:44.400 --> 00:38:51.760
we will answer to God for how
we handled known truth. And Bill.

444
00:38:52.280 --> 00:38:54.320
Yeah, I care about the country, I care about young people. I

445
00:38:54.400 --> 00:38:59.800
care about the souls of individuals.
But I tremble when I think about the

446
00:39:00.280 --> 00:39:06.000
persons in authority that will one day
face the Lord Almighty. And they denied,

447
00:39:06.280 --> 00:39:12.880
they spun, they twisted, they
suppressed known truth. So let's all

448
00:39:12.960 --> 00:39:19.599
of us courageously but consistently proclaim what
the Word of God says, and it

449
00:39:19.760 --> 00:39:24.320
says Jesus is the savior. Sin
will destroy you, repent, believe,

450
00:39:24.519 --> 00:39:30.079
be saved exactly because He is the
Way, the truth, and the life.

451
00:39:31.400 --> 00:39:36.760
And this is what we must pursue
in a culture right now that has

452
00:39:36.840 --> 00:39:40.559
twisted everything turned it upside down.
We were warned in the Old Testament and

453
00:39:40.599 --> 00:39:45.239
the Book of Isaiah that we would
come to a period of time when good

454
00:39:45.320 --> 00:39:49.880
would be called evil, evil would
be called good sweet sours sour sweet,

455
00:39:50.280 --> 00:39:52.199
And here we are. I mean, we're living out the prophecy, are

456
00:39:52.280 --> 00:39:57.719
we not? Well? I think
so. You know, it's interesting Ezekiel

457
00:39:57.840 --> 00:40:02.440
thirty eight and Psalm that's not hard
to remember. Ezekiel thirty eight, Psalm

458
00:40:02.599 --> 00:40:06.960
eighty three. They talk about in
the last Day, shortly before the return

459
00:40:07.039 --> 00:40:15.000
of Christ, that the nations of
the Arabian Peninsula would fight Israel and Bill,

460
00:40:15.159 --> 00:40:19.719
you know, only God knows the
end of time, but we very

461
00:40:20.159 --> 00:40:24.719
likely may be near, very close
and near to the return of Jesus.

462
00:40:25.360 --> 00:40:30.599
And we're definitely closer than we worry
yesterday. There's no doubt. Every day

463
00:40:30.639 --> 00:40:35.480
we get closer to that. But
like you said, alex A, there

464
00:40:35.599 --> 00:40:40.519
is a response that God is expecting
from us with the signs, because it's

465
00:40:40.599 --> 00:40:43.559
not like we're going to be able
to say, well, you didn't tell

466
00:40:43.639 --> 00:40:47.679
us, right, Yeah, yeah, I mean, we are going to

467
00:40:47.760 --> 00:40:53.400
be giving an account for what we
did with known truth. The Bible says,

468
00:40:53.480 --> 00:40:59.400
man is without it. She's built. Every atheist deep down knows that

469
00:40:59.639 --> 00:41:06.920
God is real and every person in
their heart you either have Christ or you

470
00:41:07.039 --> 00:41:13.480
need Christ. And so let me
just say with all of the heartfelt sincerity

471
00:41:13.559 --> 00:41:17.559
and honesty that I can possibly convey
Jesus is as close by as a prayer.

472
00:41:19.239 --> 00:41:22.519
And folks, the greatest decision,
the most consequential thing you'll ever do,

473
00:41:23.119 --> 00:41:27.159
is say, within your heart,
say, dear Lord, I'm sorry

474
00:41:27.239 --> 00:41:30.960
for my sins, and I do
believe that Jesus is the Son of God.

475
00:41:31.320 --> 00:41:35.519
He died on the cross for me. Dear Lord, save me,

476
00:41:36.119 --> 00:41:39.119
wash my sins away. Dear Lord, save my soul and make me your

477
00:41:39.239 --> 00:41:44.320
child. It's not so much the
words, but the sincerity of your heart.

478
00:41:45.599 --> 00:41:50.599
Admit that you're a sinner. Believe
in Jesus who died for you.

479
00:41:51.199 --> 00:41:55.000
First John five to one says,
whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is

480
00:41:55.119 --> 00:42:00.880
born of God. And if you
ask him now, I don't know.

481
00:42:00.960 --> 00:42:04.559
I've had people ask me if I
pray for this or that, will God

482
00:42:04.679 --> 00:42:09.000
do it. I'll tell you one
prayer guaranteed to get answered in the affirmative.

483
00:42:09.360 --> 00:42:14.320
If you ask Jesus Christ to save
your soul, he will do it.

484
00:42:14.519 --> 00:42:17.519
And maybe somebody's watching, and today
is the day you need to make

485
00:42:17.679 --> 00:42:22.000
for sure. And by the way, if I could say on my own

486
00:42:22.039 --> 00:42:27.400
website alexmacfarlane dot com, there's a
little tab says what does God, say

487
00:42:27.440 --> 00:42:31.159
about my relationship with him. You
click that it'll explain how you can know

488
00:42:31.840 --> 00:42:38.079
with certainty that you are in right
relationship with God and death whenever it comes.

489
00:42:38.199 --> 00:42:42.400
And we're mortal, we're all going
to leave this world one day,

490
00:42:43.199 --> 00:42:46.119
but you can know you'll be with
Christ in heaven. And so if you're

491
00:42:46.320 --> 00:42:52.400
unsure, make sure today well you
know the reality of our world today is

492
00:42:52.519 --> 00:42:58.000
such that it is shaking us to
the core. Alex, I think I've

493
00:42:58.000 --> 00:43:00.639
shared this with you before, you
know. Time and again I observe people

494
00:43:01.199 --> 00:43:06.599
and I'm observing that they're looking up
more often, and it's like, I

495
00:43:06.719 --> 00:43:09.280
want to ask, what are you
looking for? I think instinctively they know

496
00:43:09.440 --> 00:43:15.079
the answer doesn't lie here in the
temporal area of worldly governments, that it

497
00:43:15.239 --> 00:43:20.519
is God himself, and instinctively a
part of them is telling them to look

498
00:43:20.639 --> 00:43:27.559
up, and this is perhaps they're
appointed time. The prayer that you presented

499
00:43:28.559 --> 00:43:34.440
a moment ago is so critical because
this could be life changing, This could

500
00:43:34.480 --> 00:43:40.000
be eternally changing, an epic you
know, for you, and as the

501
00:43:40.079 --> 00:43:45.440
Bible says, not only you,
but your household as well, that you

502
00:43:45.480 --> 00:43:50.320
would be that shining light and example
because as we know all of us who

503
00:43:50.360 --> 00:43:52.599
have gone through this, you know, through this experience. It is a

504
00:43:52.760 --> 00:43:57.840
night and day experience, right,
Alex. I mean you definitely go,

505
00:43:58.280 --> 00:44:00.760
you go out one way, you
come back and and people are looking at

506
00:44:00.800 --> 00:44:04.440
you, go, what the heck
happened to you? Right? Yeah?

507
00:44:05.119 --> 00:44:07.800
You know, Bill, growing up
as a kid, I was very very

508
00:44:07.920 --> 00:44:15.480
much intrigued by Harry Houdini and magic
and things like that, and played with

509
00:44:15.559 --> 00:44:22.159
a Ouiji board and really dabbled in
the occult from a young age. And

510
00:44:22.320 --> 00:44:25.159
then you know, my parents had
a business and I'm ashamed to tell you,

511
00:44:25.360 --> 00:44:30.280
but I got it right with my
dad. But I stole out of

512
00:44:30.400 --> 00:44:35.920
my dad's cash register. I'm very
ashamed of that. But I thought I

513
00:44:36.079 --> 00:44:39.280
was too bad to be saved.
And at twenty one, I heard the

514
00:44:39.400 --> 00:44:45.599
gospel that Jesus died for me.
But I thought, you know, I'm

515
00:44:45.719 --> 00:44:51.800
unsavable. I dabbled in the occult, I had taken the Lord's name in

516
00:44:51.920 --> 00:44:55.199
vain, and I was I was
convinced that there was no hope for me.

517
00:44:55.320 --> 00:45:00.639
Bill. But I finally I began
to read the Bible, and two

518
00:45:00.800 --> 00:45:05.400
verses that really changed my life in
the Old Testament, in Isaiah one verse

519
00:45:05.519 --> 00:45:09.280
eighteen. The Bible says, come
now, let us reason together, say

520
00:45:09.280 --> 00:45:13.719
it for the Lord. Though your
sins are as scarlet, they can be

521
00:45:13.760 --> 00:45:17.519
as white as snow. And then
finally I was reading John, the Gospel

522
00:45:17.559 --> 00:45:22.199
of John, and that's in the
New Testament. Folks, Matthew, Mark,

523
00:45:22.320 --> 00:45:27.360
Luke, and John are like four
kind of biographies of Jesus. But

524
00:45:28.320 --> 00:45:34.079
it says in John six point forty, whoever sees the sun son, that's

525
00:45:34.159 --> 00:45:39.760
Jesus. Whoever sees the sun and
believes in him, will have everlasting life.

526
00:45:40.400 --> 00:45:44.559
And I will raise you up at
the last day. And I just

527
00:45:44.639 --> 00:45:46.599
threw myself before Christ. I said, dear Lord, I am a guilty

528
00:45:46.719 --> 00:45:52.039
sinner or I've done things that I
don't even want to think about, but

529
00:45:52.239 --> 00:45:57.480
please wash my sins away. And
Bill, my life was changed. That's

530
00:45:57.559 --> 00:46:02.079
been more than thirty years ago.
Listen, folks, whatever you've done,

531
00:46:02.760 --> 00:46:07.519
Jesus will forgive if you ask him. And whatever has been done to you,

532
00:46:08.519 --> 00:46:14.920
Jesus can heal if you ask him. And so he is everything.

533
00:46:15.039 --> 00:46:22.159
Bill isn't a Jesus not only our
savior, He's our life every moment of

534
00:46:22.199 --> 00:46:28.079
every day. Yeah, and Alex, you know when you've received this gift

535
00:46:28.159 --> 00:46:32.960
of salvation that Jesus paid the price
for all of us for it is so

536
00:46:34.159 --> 00:46:38.360
life changing that you can't help but
want it for everybody. Right, And

537
00:46:38.719 --> 00:46:43.039
this is our heart, and I
hope people again are hearing our hearts and

538
00:46:43.159 --> 00:46:46.599
what we're saying, because here we
are, we're in this magical season of

539
00:46:46.760 --> 00:46:53.039
Christmas and the Father giving us the
ultimate gift in his son. He came

540
00:46:53.119 --> 00:46:59.079
from heaven to earth to bring us
back home to save, to save a

541
00:46:59.320 --> 00:47:05.960
world of sin in and he faithfully
fulfilled his mission. And it's up to

542
00:47:06.119 --> 00:47:09.719
us and the church to play its
role as well. Alex, And you

543
00:47:09.760 --> 00:47:13.639
know, I can't thank you enough
for coming on the show. And we've

544
00:47:13.679 --> 00:47:16.599
got a couple of minutes left here, and I just want to touch on

545
00:47:16.760 --> 00:47:22.079
briefly because we did mention that we
were going to talk about planned parenthood.

546
00:47:22.559 --> 00:47:29.320
How they've been caught stealing taxpayer dollars
through COVID small business loans. We shouldn't

547
00:47:29.320 --> 00:47:34.480
be surprised, should we, No, Because look, if you will consent

548
00:47:34.920 --> 00:47:38.760
and even advocate the killing of a
baby, you'll do anything. Look,

549
00:47:39.079 --> 00:47:44.440
I mean that's why. Look sin
is sin. I know that, but

550
00:47:44.719 --> 00:47:50.239
I've got to believe that the killing
of the unborn, a precious human life

551
00:47:50.320 --> 00:47:58.000
made in the image of God,
a life ordained by God. To kill

552
00:47:58.199 --> 00:48:04.800
a baby and then to politically maneuver
so that there's no legal protection for the

553
00:48:04.920 --> 00:48:10.280
unborn, that has got to be
the most heinous of sins. And here's

554
00:48:10.320 --> 00:48:14.920
the thing people ask me. Back
during the Clinton years, I was speaking

555
00:48:15.000 --> 00:48:20.119
at a college and they were saying, what Bill Clinton does in his private

556
00:48:20.239 --> 00:48:22.239
life is his business, and I
said, no, Look, if you'll

557
00:48:22.360 --> 00:48:29.239
backstab your spouse, I wouldn't put
anything past you. Exactly. If Bill

558
00:48:29.280 --> 00:48:32.960
Clinton would betray his wife, then
Heaven help the rest of us. And

559
00:48:34.159 --> 00:48:37.039
in a similar way, look,
if somebody will advocate the killing of a

560
00:48:37.159 --> 00:48:45.639
baby, then of course they'll steal
a PPP loan. Yes exactly. I

561
00:48:45.679 --> 00:48:50.320
mean there is no moral compass there
make gods. Yeah, well, Alex,

562
00:48:50.519 --> 00:48:52.960
I mean think about this, what
nation do you know? I don't

563
00:48:53.000 --> 00:48:59.400
know of any nation in the history
of the world that has survived the murdering

564
00:48:59.559 --> 00:49:05.159
of their Yeah, now, I
don't know of one. Well, the

565
00:49:05.280 --> 00:49:08.719
Bible says if you sow to the
wind, you'll reap a whirlwind. It's

566
00:49:08.960 --> 00:49:15.280
interesting that social security is about to
go broke. It's interesting that families,

567
00:49:15.760 --> 00:49:22.039
you know, the sociologists put an
article out this morning Bill about the extinction

568
00:49:22.320 --> 00:49:25.960
of cousins. Now, why do
people not have cousins anymore? Why are

569
00:49:27.000 --> 00:49:30.639
their kids growing up? They don't
even know what cousins are because people aren't

570
00:49:30.679 --> 00:49:38.239
having kids. And seventy five,
roughly million American citizens have been killed in

571
00:49:38.440 --> 00:49:44.159
utero since nineteen seventy three. Well, add the chemical abortion, now you're

572
00:49:44.199 --> 00:49:47.119
over one hundred million. Yeah.
So Ohio has made it part of their

573
00:49:47.199 --> 00:49:52.760
constitution in the state of al Hio. And see our declaration, constitution and

574
00:49:52.840 --> 00:50:00.119
Bill of Rights says that we have
a God given right to life. And

575
00:50:00.360 --> 00:50:07.199
so the number of illegals coming in
is roughly the same as the number of

576
00:50:07.599 --> 00:50:14.079
American citizens that don't exist because we
murdered them in uter row. Folks,

577
00:50:15.519 --> 00:50:21.400
we need a God sized miracle to
turn this country around. And our loss

578
00:50:21.440 --> 00:50:25.559
of a moral compass, the corruption, the cancer set in the day that

579
00:50:25.679 --> 00:50:31.800
we decided it was okay to murder
the unborn and to go against God,

580
00:50:31.920 --> 00:50:36.320
no doubt about it, Doctor Alex
McFarlane, we got to leave it there,

581
00:50:36.440 --> 00:50:39.360
my friend, Merry Christmas to you, a happy New Year again.

582
00:50:39.440 --> 00:50:44.639
We appreciate your heart and your insight
and your time to come on the show

583
00:50:44.679 --> 00:50:45.679
and share with us. You take
care of buddy, all right. I'll

584
00:50:45.719 --> 00:50:49.079
bless you, my friend. Thank
you so much. God bless you.

585
00:50:49.239 --> 00:50:52.639
Our thanks to doctor Alex McFarlane.
And that's a wrap for us, and

586
00:50:52.760 --> 00:50:57.159
thank you for sharing a part of
your day with us. May God bless

587
00:50:57.199 --> 00:51:00.559
you and keep you, may make
us face shine upon you, maybe gracious

588
00:51:00.639 --> 00:51:04.800
unto you and give you peace.
Thanks again, God bless Merry Christmas.
