1
00:00:00.920 --> 00:00:03.279
Are you ready, Yeah, Okay, let's do it.

2
00:00:03.359 --> 00:00:07.839
Ill Martinez Live a program about current events, our culture,

3
00:00:08.199 --> 00:00:11.160
our values, our politics, and our future.

4
00:00:11.480 --> 00:00:16.480
And now Bill Martinez, Good Morning America. Six minutes after

5
00:00:16.519 --> 00:00:18.320
the top of they are right now. I'm Bill Martinez.

6
00:00:18.320 --> 00:00:21.600
SE's Steve Bonta, the publisher of the New American magazine.

7
00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:22.679
Thanks Steve, good morning to you.

8
00:00:22.760 --> 00:00:23.960
Hey Bill, good to talk to you.

9
00:00:24.640 --> 00:00:26.280
Always good to talk to you. And get caught up.

10
00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:29.280
And of course, you know, the focus is Iran. I

11
00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:31.719
mean a lot of people are getting nervous here. I

12
00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:34.280
don't know what they expected if they thought everything was

13
00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:36.799
going to be done. You know. I keep saying, we're

14
00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:39.759
part of this microwave generation that stands in front of

15
00:00:39.759 --> 00:00:42.280
a microwave and yell's hurry up. I mean, like we're

16
00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:46.280
gonna deal with something that's taken forty over forty five

17
00:00:46.359 --> 00:00:48.359
years to be involved when we're cleaning up in a

18
00:00:48.359 --> 00:00:50.399
couple of couple of hours.

19
00:00:51.079 --> 00:00:51.320
Yeah.

20
00:00:51.399 --> 00:00:53.920
Well, I glanced at some of the headlines this morning,

21
00:00:53.960 --> 00:00:56.280
and one of them, you know, they're they're one and

22
00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:58.759
all extremely ominous, and one of them was going on

23
00:00:58.799 --> 00:01:01.200
about how the head line said something like and I

24
00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:02.880
forget which one which is the news media was, but

25
00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:06.640
it was something like, you know, conditions worsened as American

26
00:01:06.719 --> 00:01:10.239
death toll rises. Okay, well, what's happened is that the

27
00:01:10.280 --> 00:01:13.920
American death toll has risen from six to seven. Right,

28
00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:16.760
not to minimize the deaths of seven American servicemen, I'd

29
00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:18.359
be less to do that. But if you compare that

30
00:01:18.920 --> 00:01:22.760
to you know, the mortality rates of pretty much any

31
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:25.760
other recent American war, you know, so far, it's it's

32
00:01:25.840 --> 00:01:26.519
not been that.

33
00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:27.480
Big a deal.

34
00:01:28.239 --> 00:01:28.840
I mean, we.

35
00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:34.200
The main issue with the war, I suspect is in

36
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:36.519
the long term is going to be the cost involved.

37
00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:42.480
It does seem to be being prosecuted very differently from

38
00:01:42.480 --> 00:01:47.040
the way other wars of this sort were done. In

39
00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:53.159
the end, excuse me, shut off my cell phone. In

40
00:01:53.239 --> 00:01:56.400
the end, we have sorry about that, you know. And

41
00:01:56.439 --> 00:01:58.040
the in the end, we're probably gonna have to send

42
00:01:58.079 --> 00:01:59.920
some ground troops in to finish the job. It's very

43
00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:03.760
clear that the Iranian regime has absolutely no interest in disbanding.

44
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:07.599
They're going to continue shooting Iranian citizens and doing their thing.

45
00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:10.520
And you know, I mean it's a very complicated issue

46
00:02:11.439 --> 00:02:13.840
in the sense that you know, the war was probably

47
00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:18.159
as claimed by a lot of Trump's detractors was embarked

48
00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:22.080
upon unconstitutionally, But then so is every other war since

49
00:02:22.159 --> 00:02:24.680
World War Two, and quite a number of wars even

50
00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:25.639
before World War Two.

51
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:28.120
So that's you know, a bit problematic.

52
00:02:28.840 --> 00:02:31.919
And at the thing that thinks so funny, Steve, is

53
00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:34.719
that the ones they're claiming it's unconstant, they're shouting for

54
00:02:34.759 --> 00:02:38.319
the timbers is unconstitutional, said nothing or even said they

55
00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:41.639
supported what Barack Obama did, for example. So like you said,

56
00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:44.800
I mean, fair's fair here, Let's let's be objective about this.

57
00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:49.199
And you know, clearly it seems that the president does

58
00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:52.400
have the constitutional standing to do what he's doing right

59
00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:53.479
now in the short term.

60
00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:56.840
Right, well, I'm not sure about that given the scale

61
00:02:56.879 --> 00:02:57.039
of it.

62
00:02:57.080 --> 00:03:00.560
I mean, you know, I think, honest people can you know,

63
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:05.560
disagree on small operations like what happened in Venezuela recently,

64
00:03:06.319 --> 00:03:09.639
and you know, so even people with you know, staunch

65
00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:11.120
constitutionalists do disagree.

66
00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:12.280
In this case.

67
00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:15.360
It's pretty clear that it's developed into a minimum, a

68
00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:19.599
major theater war, and really it was embarked upon, you know,

69
00:03:19.960 --> 00:03:24.919
as a major thing, and so you know, calling it

70
00:03:24.960 --> 00:03:30.240
otherwise is disingenuous. At some level, I would think, you know,

71
00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:35.319
it would require congressional authorization, not to say, an actual

72
00:03:35.759 --> 00:03:39.080
declaration of war. Now, in American history, we fought many,

73
00:03:39.080 --> 00:03:43.080
many wars and minor wars and military actions and all

74
00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:46.800
this type of thing, and of those, the only actual

75
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:48.879
declared war since it depends have been the War of

76
00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:52.639
eighteen twelve, the Mexican American War, the Spanish American War,

77
00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:56.879
and World Wars one and two. World War two involved

78
00:03:56.919 --> 00:04:00.280
multiple declarations of war, not just Germany and Japan, but

79
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:06.080
also Hungary, Romania, Italy and so forth. So Bulgaria, I

80
00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:08.280
think we declared war. And then that was the last

81
00:04:08.280 --> 00:04:11.960
time that that cluster of declarations of war, that that

82
00:04:12.039 --> 00:04:14.479
officially drew us into World War two is the last

83
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:15.840
time we've declared war.

84
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:16.319
Now.

85
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:19.120
I was, you know, in the morning, when I hang

86
00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:21.439
breakfast for to go to work, I always watch news

87
00:04:21.439 --> 00:04:25.120
clips to get myself all read and angry, and I

88
00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:28.800
was watching a screed from from Mark Levin from his

89
00:04:28.879 --> 00:04:31.839
Sunday show, in which he was in a sense arguing

90
00:04:31.879 --> 00:04:34.839
that because we no longer declare war, we shouldn't declare war,

91
00:04:35.639 --> 00:04:38.240
and then saying, you know, this was yesterday, is you know,

92
00:04:38.279 --> 00:04:40.600
we haven't done that since World War Two, and all

93
00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:42.959
these other presidents have gone into war with this, which

94
00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:45.079
is certainly true, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the

95
00:04:45.079 --> 00:04:48.160
first you know, and second Gulf Wars, not to mention

96
00:04:48.279 --> 00:04:50.800
many other you know involvements, and you know, invasions of

97
00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:53.519
Haiti and invasion of Panamon, all on and on have

98
00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:56.240
all been carried out without declaration of war or even

99
00:04:56.519 --> 00:05:00.600
without you know, congressional authorization. So so I mean that's

100
00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:03.360
the first thing that you know, we have, and it

101
00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:06.199
is our obligation, regardless of whether or not the cause

102
00:05:06.279 --> 00:05:07.759
is righteous. And we can talk about that too, and

103
00:05:07.800 --> 00:05:11.560
I think we should, but you know, there should be

104
00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:15.399
a declaration of war or some measure of congressional you know,

105
00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:18.519
consultation and authorization. And it does appear that, you know,

106
00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:22.600
that Trump, like his many of his predecessors, essentially went

107
00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:24.879
all cowboy, and you.

108
00:05:24.839 --> 00:05:27.199
Know, and so here we are and part of the

109
00:05:27.319 --> 00:05:28.360
challenge now that we're in it.

110
00:05:28.399 --> 00:05:31.079
I mean, it certainly doesn't make sense to say, oh, okay,

111
00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:34.920
let's because it was embarked upon under dubious pretexts. Let's

112
00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:37.160
just unwind the whole thing and go back to the

113
00:05:37.160 --> 00:05:41.920
status quo ante. But you know, obviously that's non acceptable outcome.

114
00:05:41.639 --> 00:05:44.920
Either, right, And you know, a part of the challenge

115
00:05:44.959 --> 00:05:48.959
you have here is with Trump talking to Congress. I mean,

116
00:05:48.959 --> 00:05:51.680
this is the stuff that's so goofy right now. He

117
00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:54.360
talks to Congress and they can't find a microphone fast

118
00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:58.480
enough to share what has been shared with them about

119
00:05:58.519 --> 00:06:00.959
any kind of strategy or what what's going on here,

120
00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:04.600
you know, And you know Trump can't trust Congress to

121
00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:05.680
keep their mouth quiet.

122
00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:06.680
Yeah.

123
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:08.639
Well, I mean, I mean, part of the problem in this,

124
00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:10.959
as with the Venezuela issue, and of course the next

125
00:06:11.079 --> 00:06:14.399
thing is going to be Cuba, as everyone realizes, is

126
00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:20.519
that we're dealing with the fallout metaphorical so far, thank goodness,

127
00:06:20.519 --> 00:06:23.360
but we're dealing with the fallout of you know, decades

128
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:28.240
of really feckless and misguided policy. So consider that when Thomas,

129
00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:33.800
I mean Thomas Jefferson was the flaky liberal guy of

130
00:06:33.800 --> 00:06:36.120
his age, and I say that affection I love Thomas

131
00:06:36.199 --> 00:06:38.800
Jefferson in many ways, but compared to most of the founders,

132
00:06:39.199 --> 00:06:41.240
he was kind of the equivalent of the of the

133
00:06:41.319 --> 00:06:45.399
touchy feely, you know, liberal mindset, like we're at all

134
00:06:45.439 --> 00:06:49.759
and yet when a bunch of Muslim nut jobs started

135
00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:56.279
kidnapping and holding for hostage Americans, he didn't hesitate, Okay, right,

136
00:06:56.360 --> 00:06:58.800
and and and so and so you roll that forward

137
00:06:58.839 --> 00:07:01.319
to nineteen seventy nine, you know, and of course now

138
00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:04.040
he did it with congressional authorization. But that speaks, I think,

139
00:07:04.120 --> 00:07:08.160
eloquently to the mindset of Americans in those days that

140
00:07:08.959 --> 00:07:13.160
we were. You know that even the most anti war presidents,

141
00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:16.800
you know, the most idealistic presidents, would say, oh, you know,

142
00:07:16.839 --> 00:07:18.759
this is this is clearly active war. Well, you know,

143
00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:22.560
Iran committed clear acts of war against America when they

144
00:07:22.879 --> 00:07:26.519
seized our embassy and held our you know, a large

145
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:30.399
number of embassy personnel hostage under unbelievable duress for four

146
00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:33.240
hundred and forty four days, and then followed that up

147
00:07:33.279 --> 00:07:34.519
with various acts of terrorism.

148
00:07:34.519 --> 00:07:37.160
And that whole time, you know, I mean, obviously.

149
00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:38.959
Jimmy Carter did not have the backbone to do anything

150
00:07:38.959 --> 00:07:42.519
about it, right, And so so that's been has been

151
00:07:42.519 --> 00:07:42.839
the thing.

152
00:07:42.920 --> 00:07:45.360
And this they have they run itally. As to how

153
00:07:45.439 --> 00:07:47.000
many Americans they've killed.

154
00:07:47.360 --> 00:07:49.920
I don't know, but it's been it's been many, directly

155
00:07:49.959 --> 00:07:52.319
or indirectly. I mean, you know, the Marine barracks in Lebanon.

156
00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:55.720
I mean, when Ronald Reagan became president, he decided he

157
00:07:55.800 --> 00:07:57.279
started out to say, well, we're going to fix things

158
00:07:57.319 --> 00:08:00.040
in the Middle East that we've kind of broken, and

159
00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:00.959
very quickly.

160
00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:02.240
That that wasn't going to happen.

161
00:08:02.319 --> 00:08:04.839
When we lost over two hundred marines in the bombing

162
00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:07.519
of the barracks in Beirut. His attitude was, you know what,

163
00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:10.519
I'm more concerned with dealing with the Soviet Union and

164
00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:12.800
the Cold War were done, and he just pulled out

165
00:08:12.839 --> 00:08:14.839
the Middle East. And so now the Middle East is

166
00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:16.959
front and center and people are saying, well, what is

167
00:08:17.000 --> 00:08:20.040
Iran done to us? Well, you know, over the last

168
00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:24.920
nearly fifty years, you know, numerous instances of cassis belli

169
00:08:25.040 --> 00:08:29.480
to be sure by any traditional calculus, however, because we've

170
00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:31.279
had you know, and Trump is right when he says,

171
00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:35.240
you know, presidents have just been kicking this proverbial can

172
00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:37.600
down the road and down the road and down the

173
00:08:37.679 --> 00:08:40.159
road and hoping the next generation will deal with it.

174
00:08:40.679 --> 00:08:44.120
I do agree with those who maintain that you just

175
00:08:44.720 --> 00:08:48.840
can't allow a regime like Iran to get nuclear weapons, right.

176
00:08:49.080 --> 00:08:51.360
I remember, back in the nineteen eighties, I took a

177
00:08:51.639 --> 00:08:55.639
course in political science at the university where I was studying,

178
00:08:55.679 --> 00:08:59.000
and one of the main topics was what they called

179
00:08:59.039 --> 00:09:02.320
back then the Islam bomb. You know, there were specifically

180
00:09:02.360 --> 00:09:05.039
referencing Iran and perhaps your rock and maybe Sautyr area,

181
00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:08.039
but Ken, you know, is it safe? And of course

182
00:09:08.080 --> 00:09:11.320
now one is Muslim nation. Pakistan does have nuclear weapons.

183
00:09:11.919 --> 00:09:15.320
But Pakistani, let's hit the pause button. We'll pick it

184
00:09:15.399 --> 00:09:17.080
up on the other side. More from Steve Bonds after

00:09:48.320 --> 00:09:50.559
Why do I go to the doctor working on the farm,

196
00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:53.000
my heart kept skipping a beat. I didn't think much

197
00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:55.200
of it, but my daughters made me get checked out.

198
00:09:55.440 --> 00:09:58.679
Turns out I have atreial fibrillation, which increases the risk

199
00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:00.120
of stroke about five times.

200
00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:04.159
Symptoms like a regular heartbeat, heart racing, chest pain, shortness

201
00:10:04.159 --> 00:10:06.960
of breath, fatigue, or lightheadedness can come and go, but

202
00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:09.440
if it's a FIB, the risk of stroke remains. If

203
00:10:09.480 --> 00:10:12.639
you have symptoms, contact a doctor. I'm so glad I

And we're back with It's just about nineteen minutes after

275
00:13:53.600 --> 00:13:55.360
the top of the I restive bond to the publisher

276
00:13:55.639 --> 00:13:59.679
of the New American magazine, No doubt. Uh you know,

277
00:14:00.120 --> 00:14:01.919
I think all eyes have been on the Middle East

278
00:14:02.000 --> 00:14:06.159
and and concerned particularly about Iran, you know, going nuclear

279
00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:08.399
And could you imagine, Steve, I mean, they go into

280
00:14:08.440 --> 00:14:12.440
the negotiation with Weiscoff and Jared Kushner and make the

281
00:14:12.480 --> 00:14:18.039
announcement quite boldly that they have enough nuclear elements to

282
00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:21.279
develop eleven nuclear bombs. Oh yeah, okay, where do we

283
00:14:21.320 --> 00:14:22.639
go from that statement? Right?

284
00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:23.320
Right?

285
00:14:23.360 --> 00:14:25.399
And yeah, you know, and so I mean I think

286
00:14:25.440 --> 00:14:28.639
people who who say, well, we should mind our own business,

287
00:14:29.759 --> 00:14:32.600
there's a there's tremendous merit to that. And you know,

288
00:14:32.679 --> 00:14:36.480
ninety nine percent of the time I say amen. But

289
00:14:37.559 --> 00:14:40.799
it is it is an ineluctable fact of the modern

290
00:14:40.840 --> 00:14:45.440
world that we no longer have to worry about an

291
00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:50.919
invasion by some you know, naval force in old wooden boats,

292
00:14:51.000 --> 00:14:54.080
you know, crossing the ocean. So for that that, you know,

293
00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:56.559
we live in a world where it is actually possible.

294
00:14:56.919 --> 00:15:01.600
Several regimes hostile to us now possess the ability to

295
00:15:02.440 --> 00:15:05.799
immolate American cities at the push of a button, exactly,

296
00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:09.360
and Iran wants to join their number bad enough that

297
00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:14.000
North Korea is now very close to that because they're

298
00:15:14.000 --> 00:15:16.559
they're they're they're crazy enough, although probably not as not

299
00:15:16.600 --> 00:15:19.919
as crazy as the theocrats in Tehran. But this is

300
00:15:19.960 --> 00:15:24.799
just an unfortunate reality. And you know, if the mindset

301
00:15:25.039 --> 00:15:30.240
of the more fanatical moiety of the Muslim world is

302
00:15:30.279 --> 00:15:34.960
that they need to exterminate or convert the rest of us, right, Okay,

303
00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:37.240
that's just That's just how it is. And this is

304
00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:40.720
a lesson that the West has learned again and again

305
00:15:41.279 --> 00:15:44.360
and again. And you know, and you add to that

306
00:15:44.360 --> 00:15:51.000
that that already potent brew the specific bizarre acusiastic theology

307
00:15:51.080 --> 00:15:54.720
of the site radicals in Iran to the effect that

308
00:15:55.159 --> 00:15:58.039
they see that it's very much they're very much end timers,

309
00:15:58.519 --> 00:16:00.639
and they believe that, you know, that they need to

310
00:16:00.759 --> 00:16:04.240
start ultimately the war to destroy the Great Satan. That's us,

311
00:16:04.639 --> 00:16:08.200
lest we forget, and little Satan is Israel just but

312
00:16:08.240 --> 00:16:11.559
we're the great Satan, okay. And they see themselves as

313
00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:13.759
as having the key role in the destruction of the

314
00:16:13.759 --> 00:16:18.320
Great Satan, and that that event will will will we

315
00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:20.960
be brought about with the you know, the tenth Madi

316
00:16:21.039 --> 00:16:21.480
showing up.

317
00:16:21.519 --> 00:16:23.440
He's kind of their their messiah.

318
00:16:23.480 --> 00:16:25.679
And so people ask, well, why did they behave so

319
00:16:25.720 --> 00:16:28.919
irrationally When the war started, they start lobbing missiles and

320
00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:32.559
drones willy nilly at all kinds of countries, including countries

321
00:16:32.600 --> 00:16:35.720
like Azerbaijhn that don't have American bases, that aren't involved

322
00:16:35.720 --> 00:16:38.679
in this at all, not to mention, you know, Gulf

323
00:16:38.679 --> 00:16:41.080
states like Qatar that are kind of in their corner,

324
00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:43.679
that are you know, that are supportive, and they attack

325
00:16:43.720 --> 00:16:45.399
it well because they're trying to draw as many countries

326
00:16:45.440 --> 00:16:47.919
as they can into this war because of this weird

327
00:16:48.879 --> 00:16:52.720
Islamic millenarian view that they have, and we if we,

328
00:16:52.759 --> 00:16:56.759
if we willfully ignore that bill, we're ignoring a large

329
00:16:56.840 --> 00:16:59.360
part of this whole issue. I mean, now we're starting

330
00:16:59.399 --> 00:17:03.440
to see acts of terrorism and attempted terrorism on US.

331
00:17:03.360 --> 00:17:06.960
Yep, exactly. Well and oh yeah, and that's right. Meanwhile,

332
00:17:07.079 --> 00:17:09.160
let's go ahead and make us even more vulnerable, and

333
00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:11.440
we'll shut down the government, take away money from the

334
00:17:11.440 --> 00:17:13.920
people whose job is to protect us here in the homeland.

335
00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:15.440
Yeah.

336
00:17:15.519 --> 00:17:18.559
Well, I mean, I think the enemies of America are

337
00:17:18.680 --> 00:17:22.759
at losses to what to do right now because they

338
00:17:22.880 --> 00:17:26.759
like Iran and less. We forget when the Iranian Revolution

339
00:17:26.759 --> 00:17:29.880
of nineteen seventy nine was actually a coalition of Iranian

340
00:17:29.960 --> 00:17:35.839
communist radical leftists with Islamists. They forged common cause, as

341
00:17:35.880 --> 00:17:38.160
they did frankly when the Soviet Union went in and

342
00:17:38.400 --> 00:17:40.640
made sure that that Central Asia, which.

343
00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:42.160
Is all Muslim, was Sovietized.

344
00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:45.319
They went out and said, you know, told the Kazakhs

345
00:17:45.359 --> 00:17:47.839
and the Azeris and all the rest of them, you know,

346
00:17:48.039 --> 00:17:50.799
this is this is basically you know, you know you

347
00:17:50.839 --> 00:17:53.119
talk about your jihad, Well that's what this is. Really,

348
00:17:53.160 --> 00:17:55.279
this is a form of jihad, so we have common

349
00:17:55.319 --> 00:17:57.839
cause and that's what they did. So this Green Red

350
00:17:57.880 --> 00:18:03.640
alliance is nothing new. And you know, so the left

351
00:18:03.720 --> 00:18:09.240
in the West secretly loves the Iranian regime, just like

352
00:18:09.279 --> 00:18:12.079
they not so secretly love the communist Chinese because they're

353
00:18:12.119 --> 00:18:15.279
ideological fellow travelers. And that's the reason that they scream

354
00:18:15.279 --> 00:18:17.920
and yell every time an errant Israeli bomb, you know,

355
00:18:18.000 --> 00:18:21.400
kills some civilians in Gaza, but they don't utter a

356
00:18:21.440 --> 00:18:24.720
peep when the Iranian government goes out and slaughters tens

357
00:18:24.759 --> 00:18:27.559
of thousands of young people in the space of a

358
00:18:27.599 --> 00:18:31.200
couple of days. When they you know, they massacre women regularly,

359
00:18:31.920 --> 00:18:35.440
young women in particular. It's just a beastial regime, absolutely

360
00:18:35.480 --> 00:18:38.599
beast you I mean, that's not propaganda, that's true, okay,

361
00:18:38.839 --> 00:18:42.079
But the Western left in general, their criticisms of Iran

362
00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:44.880
have always been very muted. Now, of course, you know,

363
00:18:44.960 --> 00:18:48.599
the war its suddenly they've all discovered the constitution, you know,

364
00:18:48.799 --> 00:18:50.319
and they're saying, well, this is unkind and you know,

365
00:18:50.359 --> 00:18:52.880
they're doing anything they can to get Trump to back

366
00:18:52.960 --> 00:18:55.559
down because they don't want to see the regime and

367
00:18:55.720 --> 00:18:57.880
it's in Iran fall.

368
00:18:57.920 --> 00:18:58.599
They really don't.

369
00:18:59.279 --> 00:19:01.319
Well, there's no question. Well you've got, like you said,

370
00:19:02.279 --> 00:19:04.359
and we've been pointing this out. I mean, forget about

371
00:19:04.359 --> 00:19:07.559
the parties, you know, forget about Democrats and Republicans. It's

372
00:19:07.640 --> 00:19:11.119
not that it's deeper than that. It's the pro American

373
00:19:11.240 --> 00:19:14.039
the people who believe in the great American idea that

374
00:19:14.440 --> 00:19:15.880
you and I have lived with that we're going to

375
00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:18.680
celebrate two hundred and fifty years and happy to do so.

376
00:19:19.079 --> 00:19:21.720
And you get the anti Americans, the ones, like you say,

377
00:19:21.759 --> 00:19:24.359
these lefties that have been here that live amongst us,

378
00:19:24.440 --> 00:19:27.880
have taken advantage of all the good things that we've generated.

379
00:19:27.920 --> 00:19:32.119
And I say we, the corporate we including themselves and

380
00:19:32.240 --> 00:19:35.759
generated and they just they it just is amazing to

381
00:19:35.799 --> 00:19:39.200
me that they want the demise of you say, the

382
00:19:39.200 --> 00:19:43.319
great Satan of America and this American dream that we have.

383
00:19:44.359 --> 00:19:46.759
It's shocking to me. But here they lived among they

384
00:19:46.759 --> 00:19:50.039
live amongst us, and that's what that's what we have

385
00:19:50.119 --> 00:19:50.559
to deal with.

386
00:19:51.079 --> 00:19:53.240
Well and probably never you know, get rid of them altogether.

387
00:19:53.279 --> 00:19:54.400
I mean, this is not an all thing.

388
00:19:54.880 --> 00:19:55.480
They've been around.

389
00:19:55.440 --> 00:20:00.359
They've been around twentieth century. We're already carrying out out

390
00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:02.400
acts of terrorism and American soil. Like you know, the

391
00:20:02.640 --> 00:20:05.640
Wall Street bombing back in nineteen twenty I think it was,

392
00:20:06.559 --> 00:20:10.279
and this and many other examples of that kind of thing.

393
00:20:10.839 --> 00:20:12.960
There was I think a massacre of attack on a

394
00:20:13.000 --> 00:20:15.640
police station here right here in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, not far

395
00:20:15.640 --> 00:20:18.000
from where I live, back in that same time period.

396
00:20:18.039 --> 00:20:20.200
People forget that there there was a that was the

397
00:20:20.240 --> 00:20:23.640
original radical left wave of terrorism in the United States.

398
00:20:23.680 --> 00:20:26.240
And that was one hundred and twenty years ago. So

399
00:20:27.559 --> 00:20:30.200
you know, so it's not new. I mean, the the

400
00:20:29.640 --> 00:20:32.839
the banners, the pretext changed, but you have the but

401
00:20:32.880 --> 00:20:35.880
you have the to kind of understand the illogic of

402
00:20:35.960 --> 00:20:37.759
what we would call the left or the woke left

403
00:20:37.799 --> 00:20:41.680
or whatever. The enemies of America writ large basically two things.

404
00:20:41.759 --> 00:20:44.720
Number one, they hate the United States, and number two,

405
00:20:44.799 --> 00:20:51.039
they greatly admire any system that displays a certain aptitude

406
00:20:51.160 --> 00:20:55.599
for regimented oppression because they want to regiment things. They

407
00:20:56.000 --> 00:20:58.880
don't just want to go out and oppress people at random.

408
00:20:59.039 --> 00:21:01.279
They want it to be regiment, mended and organized because

409
00:21:01.279 --> 00:21:04.160
they believe in order right. So in their time, they

410
00:21:04.240 --> 00:21:07.680
greatly admired the Nazis until it became politically incorrect to

411
00:21:07.720 --> 00:21:10.279
do so, but all these same people loved the Nazis

412
00:21:10.279 --> 00:21:12.519
and the fascists in the nineteen twenties and nineteen thirties,

413
00:21:12.839 --> 00:21:15.559
and then they switched, you know, then it became the Communists,

414
00:21:15.599 --> 00:21:17.599
because after all, you know, look at look at you know,

415
00:21:17.599 --> 00:21:20.799
Stalin's kind of a bad guy, but he's really really charming,

416
00:21:20.839 --> 00:21:23.559
and look at look at this wonderful big government that

417
00:21:23.599 --> 00:21:25.680
he's created, how efficient it is, and what an improvement

418
00:21:25.680 --> 00:21:29.640
it constitutes over the Czars and now. And they, of course,

419
00:21:29.720 --> 00:21:32.400
certainly they feel that way about about China. And I've

420
00:21:32.400 --> 00:21:34.720
lived in China, as we've talked about before, and yes,

421
00:21:34.759 --> 00:21:36.880
they do actually make the trains run on time.

422
00:21:37.000 --> 00:21:38.759
They do run on time. It's true.

423
00:21:38.839 --> 00:21:40.880
They're good at stuff like that, you know. So they

424
00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:45.400
talk about they wax effusive about that. And similarly they

425
00:21:45.440 --> 00:21:47.319
feel the same about Iran. They oh, well, you know,

426
00:21:47.680 --> 00:21:49.640
and the narrative is still, you know, the Shah was

427
00:21:49.640 --> 00:21:52.960
this evil individual because he hated Communism and he loved

428
00:21:52.960 --> 00:21:54.240
Israel and so he had to go.

429
00:21:54.720 --> 00:21:56.319
You know, That's that's the part of that story that

430
00:21:56.319 --> 00:21:57.839
no one ever talks about, you know.

431
00:21:58.039 --> 00:22:01.319
So so clearly, these people, even though they dress funny

432
00:22:01.599 --> 00:22:02.920
and they love to abuse women.

433
00:22:03.720 --> 00:22:06.319
There's still us. That's what the left thinks.

434
00:22:06.359 --> 00:22:09.039
You know, there are people because you know, they have

435
00:22:09.079 --> 00:22:14.079
this massive secret police surveillance earth. They're socialists, They redistribute

436
00:22:14.079 --> 00:22:17.799
the wealth, They're into public works projects and building grandiose

437
00:22:18.039 --> 00:22:22.839
monuments themselves, all the things that the left admires. So

438
00:22:23.559 --> 00:22:26.880
they will regarded as a terrible tragedy if this regime

439
00:22:27.039 --> 00:22:29.920
falls and is replaced by, oh, I don't know, an

440
00:22:29.960 --> 00:22:33.920
actual free republic, and especially if a republic that's you know,

441
00:22:34.160 --> 00:22:37.880
sympathetic to so called the so called right and Israel

442
00:22:37.920 --> 00:22:39.799
and its actually friends to Israel, imagine that.

443
00:22:39.880 --> 00:22:40.920
Oh you can't have that.

444
00:22:41.359 --> 00:22:45.559
Yeah, you can't have peace and prosperity without order. If

445
00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:48.440
it isn't anything that they've created, then they don't believe

446
00:22:48.440 --> 00:22:49.119
in it, right.

447
00:22:49.559 --> 00:22:52.160
Right, Yeah, But I mean, I mean, but all that said,

448
00:22:52.200 --> 00:22:54.720
I mean that's the best case scenario. I don't know

449
00:22:54.759 --> 00:22:56.920
how this is going to turn out. A lot of people,

450
00:22:57.000 --> 00:22:58.880
of course, are already saying, well, it's going to just

451
00:22:58.920 --> 00:23:01.240
be another Middle Eastern quiet, and it may you know,

452
00:23:01.559 --> 00:23:03.519
I think one thing is certain. There's going to be

453
00:23:03.519 --> 00:23:05.359
a price tag. And I think you wanted to talk

454
00:23:05.359 --> 00:23:07.799
a little bit about the economic dimension of this. So

455
00:23:07.960 --> 00:23:10.440
I would say this, you know, I mean as far

456
00:23:10.480 --> 00:23:12.960
as the short term, all wars cause price shocks.

457
00:23:13.400 --> 00:23:15.720
Yes, most modern wars cause oil price.

458
00:23:15.960 --> 00:23:17.960
We're now billion dollars a day, right.

459
00:23:17.920 --> 00:23:21.000
Yeah, I mean we're seeing that. But but I don't

460
00:23:21.039 --> 00:23:22.799
really care so much about that. That's the same.

461
00:23:22.920 --> 00:23:24.440
You know, if you have a hurricane, it costes price

462
00:23:24.480 --> 00:23:26.920
shocks too. You know, any type of black swan event

463
00:23:27.279 --> 00:23:30.079
is going to cause you know, short terms price shocks.

464
00:23:30.359 --> 00:23:33.279
Those are far less significant. Those get taken care of,

465
00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:37.200
you know, smoothed out by market forces. But the long

466
00:23:37.279 --> 00:23:42.400
term issue is is the cost and the inevitable borrowing

467
00:23:42.440 --> 00:23:46.119
and printing that will take place, you know, to paper

468
00:23:46.119 --> 00:23:49.160
over the costs of this war. So that's you know,

469
00:23:49.200 --> 00:23:50.759
that's going to be something that we're going to have

470
00:23:50.799 --> 00:23:53.000
to reckon with. You know, the p the First Golf

471
00:23:53.000 --> 00:23:56.160
War costs a lot of money and led to a recession,

472
00:23:56.599 --> 00:23:59.000
you know, the occupation of Iraq, the Second Gulf War,

473
00:23:59.039 --> 00:24:00.279
what ever you want to call it, the r or

474
00:24:00.720 --> 00:24:04.279
similar deal, and this one is already costing a lot

475
00:24:04.279 --> 00:24:06.920
of money. Wars are Wars are not the health of

476
00:24:06.920 --> 00:24:08.640
the economy. They may be the health of the state.

477
00:24:09.359 --> 00:24:11.079
But they're certainly not the health of the economy.

478
00:24:12.880 --> 00:24:16.519
Thing is this is on top of Gaza and Russia

479
00:24:16.559 --> 00:24:17.119
and Ukraine.

480
00:24:17.119 --> 00:24:19.640
Steve Well, sure, and and you know, and so so

481
00:24:19.640 --> 00:24:22.839
I mean people need to understand that it is not

482
00:24:22.880 --> 00:24:23.200
the case.

483
00:24:23.319 --> 00:24:23.480
Now.

484
00:24:23.680 --> 00:24:26.240
Now what Trump is trying to put this with, Well, yeah,

485
00:24:26.279 --> 00:24:28.079
we end up with a free Iran, We'll have more

486
00:24:28.079 --> 00:24:31.359
there'll be more money for development, you know, opportunities for trade,

487
00:24:31.599 --> 00:24:33.119
obviously oil access.

488
00:24:32.839 --> 00:24:33.240
To the oil.

489
00:24:33.720 --> 00:24:36.119
And that may be true too, that maybe an offsetting factor.

490
00:24:36.400 --> 00:24:39.839
It is a very complex situation, and I guess for me,

491
00:24:40.000 --> 00:24:44.240
I mean the two negatives are a the unconstitutionality of it.

492
00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:46.839
You know, we we have to you know, as you

493
00:24:46.880 --> 00:24:49.519
may gather. I'm certainly simp I've wept no tears when

494
00:24:49.519 --> 00:24:51.200
I learned the death of Comedy and some of these

495
00:24:51.240 --> 00:24:54.839
other people. These are monstrous individuals and the world is

496
00:24:55.000 --> 00:24:57.160
well rid of them, and it will be well rid

497
00:24:57.200 --> 00:25:00.119
of their regime if if we succeed, if we in

498
00:25:00.160 --> 00:25:02.839
Israel succeed in getting rid of them, and it will

499
00:25:02.880 --> 00:25:05.480
redound to the benefit of the Iranian people. I think,

500
00:25:05.759 --> 00:25:07.920
if that, if that's how it plays out, all right.

501
00:25:09.000 --> 00:25:13.279
But but we can't ignore the constitutional issues. It is

502
00:25:13.279 --> 00:25:15.160
our responsibility to say, well, okay, you know, at some

503
00:25:15.240 --> 00:25:17.839
point we're going to have to get back to a constitute,

504
00:25:17.880 --> 00:25:21.279
more constitutional, you know, version of things, and that certainly

505
00:25:21.359 --> 00:25:25.000
includes the war powers. You know, under the constitution, it

506
00:25:25.119 --> 00:25:28.319
is not true that Congress has all the war powers.

507
00:25:28.599 --> 00:25:29.960
It has a lot of them.

508
00:25:30.200 --> 00:25:31.799
Okay, if you look at Article one, Section ay has

509
00:25:31.839 --> 00:25:35.440
a whole list of powers, not just declaring war, but

510
00:25:35.440 --> 00:25:38.440
also obviously raising revenue for war and defining, you know,

511
00:25:38.480 --> 00:25:39.960
the rules of engage all this stuff.

512
00:25:40.200 --> 00:25:42.319
Article one, section eight has a lot.

513
00:25:42.920 --> 00:25:45.200
But the president is also has a certain measure of

514
00:25:45.240 --> 00:25:48.279
authority the executive due to his role as commander in chief,

515
00:25:48.599 --> 00:25:50.680
and it's been a debate from the very founding of

516
00:25:50.720 --> 00:25:54.680
the Republic how far that role actually extends.

517
00:25:55.039 --> 00:25:57.720
Yeah, you brought up something that just poked me in

518
00:25:57.720 --> 00:26:00.200
the eye, and that is that, you know, Congress is

519
00:26:00.200 --> 00:26:03.440
the one to define the rules of engagement. Yeah, Lord,

520
00:26:03.519 --> 00:26:07.279
have mercy, No wonder, Yeah, no wonder. Yeah, I just say, anyway,

521
00:26:07.319 --> 00:26:09.480
we got to leave it there. Look forward to continuing

522
00:26:09.480 --> 00:26:13.359
the conversation with you. Mister Steve Bonta. He's the publisher

523
00:26:13.400 --> 00:26:15.400
of the New American Steve Bonta. Thank you, Steve.

524
00:26:15.440 --> 00:26:17.240
Take care, Thanks Bill, just take care you too.

525
00:26:18.319 --> 00:26:22.119
Everything is expensive right now, gas, food, you name it.

526
00:26:22.319 --> 00:26:25.920
You're spending more, you are making the same or less money.

527
00:26:26.319 --> 00:26:29.200
So what do you do? You rack up credit card debt.

528
00:26:29.240 --> 00:26:33.039
That's what you do. It's not your fault, it's the economy.

529
00:26:33.319 --> 00:26:35.799
And guess what. If you rack up too much credit

530
00:26:35.880 --> 00:26:38.519
card debt, like some of us, you can't pay your bills.

531
00:26:38.880 --> 00:26:41.799
Then the credit card companies, as nice as they are,

532
00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:45.960
start hounding you for money. Then you start your downward spiral.

533
00:26:46.599 --> 00:26:48.720

I'm Bill Martinez and Carl Gallups is back with us,

590
00:29:57.160 --> 00:30:01.079
the senior pastor Hickory Hammick Baptist Church and Florida since

591
00:30:01.119 --> 00:30:02.960
nineteen eighty seven. That's been a minute.

592
00:30:03.119 --> 00:30:04.039
Huh yeah, just.

593
00:30:04.000 --> 00:30:06.559
A minute, Just a minute or two. It's gone by

594
00:30:06.640 --> 00:30:07.519
in a second though.

595
00:30:08.119 --> 00:30:10.480
Well. On top of that, he's also an Amazon top

596
00:30:10.559 --> 00:30:13.799
sixty best selling author of former decorated Florida law enforcement

597

officer and and of course he's a dear brother in Christ.

598
00:30:17.680 --> 00:30:20.680
And you know, I'm so grateful. I got to tell you, Carl,

599
00:30:20.799 --> 00:30:23.519
every time you know we're together, I just thank God

600
00:30:23.559 --> 00:30:23.880
for you.

601
00:30:24.400 --> 00:30:26.599
Oh, thank you. Bill. I feel the same way about you,

602
00:30:26.759 --> 00:30:30.319
of course. And anyway, yeah, yeah, thanks, you're coming.

603
00:30:30.359 --> 00:30:34.079
Well. I'm motivated, you know, to talk to you about

604
00:30:34.440 --> 00:30:37.240
where we are spiritually right now, because that's one of

605
00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:39.799
the things that comes up quite often with people who

606
00:30:39.839 --> 00:30:41.680
know I do a show like this, and they go, Bill,

607
00:30:41.759 --> 00:30:42.880
what is going on?

608
00:30:43.640 --> 00:30:43.839
You know?

609
00:30:43.960 --> 00:30:45.720
The world is upside down? I said, well, have you

610
00:30:46.559 --> 00:30:49.559
read the word of God? You know? Because God, it's

611
00:30:49.599 --> 00:30:51.319
not like God hasn't warned us, right.

612
00:30:51.599 --> 00:30:54.400
That's right. Right, and not to part your words. But

613
00:30:54.599 --> 00:30:56.599
everything you said is true and I agree with it.

614
00:30:56.799 --> 00:30:58.559
But I also try to tell people when they say

615
00:30:58.599 --> 00:31:01.920
the world's upside down, I say, well, actually it is

616
00:31:02.079 --> 00:31:05.000
upside down from what God intended it to be, but

617
00:31:05.119 --> 00:31:08.440
it's exactly the way God said it would be in

618
00:31:08.519 --> 00:31:11.680
the last days. Now, when I used the term last days,

619
00:31:11.759 --> 00:31:15.000
I am not setting dates. I'm not an alarmist. I'm

620
00:31:15.039 --> 00:31:17.680
just saying that I know for a fact. I have

621
00:31:17.839 --> 00:31:23.960
proven it in books, I've done worldwide media presentations, live television, radio,

622
00:31:24.440 --> 00:31:30.039
podcasting describing it. I've not had anyone anyone able to

623
00:31:30.519 --> 00:31:34.039
historically and biblically prove that I'm wrong. And it's not me.

624
00:31:34.400 --> 00:31:35.799
It's the word of God.

625
00:31:35.640 --> 00:31:40.000
That's right exactly. But that's our responsibility, Carl. You know,

626
00:31:40.440 --> 00:31:42.319
God has put us in a time such as this

627
00:31:42.480 --> 00:31:45.279
in a sense like watchmen, and what does he say

628
00:31:45.319 --> 00:31:48.519
if the watchman doesn't warn the people, the blood is

629
00:31:48.599 --> 00:31:50.119
on their hands.

630
00:31:49.799 --> 00:31:54.039
Right right, right, So absolutely we have a great responsibility.

631
00:31:54.279 --> 00:31:56.839
And so the good and bad of this is this,

632
00:31:56.839 --> 00:31:58.559
this is the way I present it, This is the

633
00:31:58.559 --> 00:32:02.000
way I see it. The good is we are living

634
00:32:02.079 --> 00:32:04.200
in the most prophetic time since the first coming of

635
00:32:04.279 --> 00:32:08.640
Jesus Christ. Now consider that we get to experience something

636
00:32:08.759 --> 00:32:12.319
similar to what the first century experienced at the coming

637
00:32:12.319 --> 00:32:15.680
of Jesus Christ. Okay, but the next big boom of

638
00:32:15.759 --> 00:32:19.359
prophecy is the second Coming, and we're right at the

639
00:32:19.640 --> 00:32:23.319
edges of it for many biblical reasons and historical proofs.

640
00:32:23.359 --> 00:32:26.720
But the bottom line is, I tell people what a

641
00:32:26.799 --> 00:32:30.039
privilege it is that God would trust us in these days.

642
00:32:30.480 --> 00:32:34.480
Trust you trust us gives us voices. We've get cameras

643
00:32:34.519 --> 00:32:36.759
and microphones, we can speak to the world. We now

644
00:32:36.759 --> 00:32:39.319
we've got social media, and everybody can speak to the

645
00:32:39.359 --> 00:32:43.000
world that wants to. So it's an exciting time to

646
00:32:43.039 --> 00:32:46.839
be alive. All kinds of new technology on the horizon.

647
00:32:46.960 --> 00:32:50.960
Some of it is going to be used for abject evil,

648
00:32:51.319 --> 00:32:54.200
but some of that same technology will be used to

649
00:32:54.319 --> 00:32:59.039
do beautiful, wonderful, miraculous things in our lives, our health, etc.

650
00:32:59.400 --> 00:33:04.079
So you gotta it's it's it's uh, let me see

651
00:33:04.160 --> 00:33:05.279
it's first.

652
00:33:05.519 --> 00:33:05.920
Uh oh.

653
00:33:06.000 --> 00:33:09.599
First Thessalonians chapter five, where Paul is talking about these

654
00:33:09.680 --> 00:33:12.279
days and he says, but look, you've got to be

655
00:33:12.400 --> 00:33:16.079
able to identify the good and live in that, but

656
00:33:16.200 --> 00:33:18.880
to walk away from the evil. Now I'm paraphrasing, but

657
00:33:18.960 --> 00:33:22.640
he says that in First Thessalonians chapter five. But he said,

658
00:33:22.680 --> 00:33:25.799
because this day that's coming will not overtake you, my

659
00:33:25.920 --> 00:33:28.519
brothers and sisters, because you are children of the light.

660
00:33:28.720 --> 00:33:32.160
You're not walking in darkness. This day that's coming will

661
00:33:32.200 --> 00:33:34.599
not catch you like a thief in the night. It

662
00:33:34.640 --> 00:33:38.359
will for people who are not paying attention. So anyway,

663
00:33:38.440 --> 00:33:42.200
that's the good that we've got all these promises, assurances.

664
00:33:42.279 --> 00:33:45.920
We've not been appointed under God's wrath. We're living in

665
00:33:46.000 --> 00:33:49.720
times that God trusts us to take the message. The

666
00:33:50.400 --> 00:33:53.960
negative part is the world is changing quickly, shifting quickly

667
00:33:54.119 --> 00:33:58.799
because a eye quantum computing that used to be nuclear

668
00:33:58.920 --> 00:34:02.799
war raised that a I war race to control the world.

669
00:34:03.240 --> 00:34:06.400
The Bible speaks of a coming one world order, you know,

670
00:34:06.599 --> 00:34:12.199
and we can see that happening. Also we understand that

671
00:34:12.880 --> 00:34:14.559
at the same time, there are a lot of people

672
00:34:14.599 --> 00:34:17.320
coming to the Lord, and I praise God for that,

673
00:34:17.760 --> 00:34:21.119
But there are also entire denominations that have been flushed

674
00:34:21.159 --> 00:34:23.119
down the toilet. I mean, they don't know what a

675
00:34:23.119 --> 00:34:25.159
marriage is, they don't know what a gender is, they

676
00:34:25.159 --> 00:34:27.519
don't know what a child is or a man or

677
00:34:27.559 --> 00:34:30.320
a woman. They don't know that Israel in the land

678
00:34:30.559 --> 00:34:33.480
is God signed to the world. He says it fifty

679
00:34:33.679 --> 00:34:36.760
times in the Old Testament that that will happen. And

680
00:34:36.800 --> 00:34:39.320
then it talks about Persia being one of the great

681
00:34:39.400 --> 00:34:42.960
aligners of coming against it. That's Iran. We're watching this.

682
00:34:43.039 --> 00:34:46.599
We've got an armada ready to attack as you and

683
00:34:46.639 --> 00:34:49.199
I are talking off the coast of Iran and in

684
00:34:49.280 --> 00:34:52.679
that whole area filled with nukes and everything else, and

685
00:34:52.880 --> 00:34:55.639
it's getting ready to be on I don't know how

686
00:34:55.679 --> 00:34:58.679
it's gonna pan out. But the problem, but the deal is,

687
00:34:59.199 --> 00:35:01.679
the Lord said all of these things would happen. He said,

688
00:35:01.719 --> 00:35:04.360
do not fear. Greater is he who's in us than

689
00:35:04.400 --> 00:35:06.639
he who is in the world. The Lord has us,

690
00:35:06.760 --> 00:35:09.440
He's got us. But anyway, that's where we are. And

691
00:35:09.480 --> 00:35:11.840
so you and I were talking even before we came

692
00:35:11.840 --> 00:35:14.599
on air. You know, when the world is at its worst,

693
00:35:14.760 --> 00:35:17.960
and this is a quote somebody else said, and you

694
00:35:18.000 --> 00:35:20.559
and I couldn't remember, so we'll give credit to this

695
00:35:20.760 --> 00:35:23.360
unknown person right now. But when the world is at

696
00:35:23.360 --> 00:35:25.679
its best, that's when the excuse me, at the worst,

697
00:35:25.719 --> 00:35:27.760
that's when the church needs to be at its best,

698
00:35:28.159 --> 00:35:33.320
and there's a lot of melding in of true biblical

699
00:35:33.400 --> 00:35:38.840
contextual living and biblical worldview. The problem is the majority,

700
00:35:39.039 --> 00:35:42.440
according to the Barnipoles and the pew Poles and all

701
00:35:42.480 --> 00:35:45.639
these that measure these things, the majority of churches all

702
00:35:45.679 --> 00:35:49.400
over the world don't have a biblical worldview and are

703
00:35:49.480 --> 00:35:52.159
not preaching and teaching the things you and I are

704
00:35:52.159 --> 00:35:55.000
talking about today, which means a whole lot of people

705
00:35:55.719 --> 00:35:58.079
just don't know, except for those that watch your show

706
00:35:58.199 --> 00:36:01.360
and a few others like it. So there we are,

707
00:36:01.440 --> 00:36:03.679
the good, the bad, and the ugly. That's where we're

708
00:36:03.719 --> 00:36:04.760
living right now.

709
00:36:04.880 --> 00:36:07.960
Well right now. And it's interesting the timing. And you know,

710
00:36:08.039 --> 00:36:13.159
I have observed God's incredible timing, you know. And and

711
00:36:13.360 --> 00:36:16.320
this year is the year of the vov and one

712
00:36:16.320 --> 00:36:19.000
of the characteristics of the year is it calls for

713
00:36:19.320 --> 00:36:24.480
connection with God and discernment. Okay, so as you connect

714
00:36:24.559 --> 00:36:28.920
with God, what's your spidey senses, They're going to increase, right,

715
00:36:29.000 --> 00:36:32.039
because you're going to start seeing this to realize the

716
00:36:32.119 --> 00:36:37.400
difference between order and disorder. Order comes from God. Disorder

717
00:36:37.519 --> 00:36:38.960
is ungodly.

718
00:36:38.519 --> 00:36:41.320
Right, yes, yes, yes, hey, let me just ask you.

719
00:36:41.360 --> 00:36:44.000
I'm not questioning it because I speak a lot of

720
00:36:44.039 --> 00:36:47.199
Hebrew and and I teach him, preach on it and everything.

721
00:36:47.199 --> 00:36:49.239
And I know you just quoted. One of the letters

722
00:36:49.280 --> 00:36:53.039
of the Hebrew alphabet, pronounced in modern Hebrew is vov.

723
00:36:53.320 --> 00:36:58.920
In ancient Paleo Hebrew has pronounced wah. And but where where,

724
00:36:58.960 --> 00:37:00.800
where's where did you get at that that this is

725
00:37:00.840 --> 00:37:01.559
the year of that?

726
00:37:02.239 --> 00:37:04.840
Well, when you go in you know, we talked about

727
00:37:04.920 --> 00:37:09.880
Aiah the Hebrew calendar year, because you know, you get

728
00:37:09.880 --> 00:37:16.559
the Hebrew calendar year. Was it five thousand something? And

729
00:37:16.599 --> 00:37:19.400
here we are, we're going on our calendar, but our

730
00:37:19.440 --> 00:37:22.119
calendar set aside. I want to be on God's calendar. Yeah,

731
00:37:22.679 --> 00:37:26.480
and the Hebrew, the Hebrew calendar and Hebrew the people

732
00:37:26.480 --> 00:37:30.360
who are discerning, even as Hebrews, because you know, everybody

733
00:37:30.440 --> 00:37:35.199
is subject to confusion and drifting away from God. And

734
00:37:35.239 --> 00:37:40.000
so but those that are Orthodox and understand appreciate that

735
00:37:40.840 --> 00:37:44.079
God doesn't. You know, there's a liturgy there, there is

736
00:37:44.159 --> 00:37:48.000
a rhyme and reason for every date and time.

737
00:37:48.639 --> 00:37:51.920
Okay, well listen, that's where that comes from. Yeah, no,

738
00:37:52.039 --> 00:37:54.599
thank you. And I'm not questioning what you said, because

739
00:37:54.639 --> 00:37:57.800
I know that the Orthodox do these things with the

740
00:37:57.880 --> 00:38:02.360
letters and numbers, and and I understand that what I was.

741
00:38:02.559 --> 00:38:05.719
The reason it caught my attention is because when you

742
00:38:05.800 --> 00:38:08.760
take the name of God use seven thousand times in

743
00:38:08.800 --> 00:38:11.519
the Old Testament, many names he goes by, but the

744
00:38:11.559 --> 00:38:14.519
primary one is we would pronounce it in the in

745
00:38:14.559 --> 00:38:19.159
the ancient Hebrew yahweh. Okay, see see the Viov. See

746
00:38:19.199 --> 00:38:22.159
we don't call him yah vei. I mean some people do,

747
00:38:22.239 --> 00:38:26.000
but it's yahweh yahweh. Why because that's the ancient pronunciation

748
00:38:26.159 --> 00:38:30.719
since since time immemorial, seven thousand times that word, that

749
00:38:30.719 --> 00:38:34.719
that name is used. Now watch you spell it in Hebrew,

750
00:38:34.920 --> 00:38:40.000
you'd hey viov or wah hey, you'd hey wa hey.

751
00:38:40.039 --> 00:38:42.760
I'm going to use the paleo the ancient Hebrew you'd

752
00:38:42.800 --> 00:38:45.119
hey wa hey. Now, if you were to ask God,

753
00:38:45.199 --> 00:38:47.559
say well, who are you? What is your name? It's

754
00:38:47.599 --> 00:38:51.360
like Moses didn't Yes that I am and yahweh kind

755
00:38:51.400 --> 00:38:54.360
of it comes out of that phrase of I am

756
00:38:54.440 --> 00:38:58.079
that I am. But watch the individual letters in Hebrew

757
00:38:58.440 --> 00:39:03.719
and Hare's newspaper and news source in Israel. It's like

758
00:39:03.760 --> 00:39:06.800
the New York Times of Israel Aretz, which means the

759
00:39:06.920 --> 00:39:09.639
land or the earth. It depends, but it means the

760
00:39:09.760 --> 00:39:14.639
land arets. In twenty thirteen, they published an article called

761
00:39:14.639 --> 00:39:18.920
the Amazing Hebrew Language. Well, one of the things they said,

762
00:39:19.880 --> 00:39:23.039
because so many naysayers on the internet think they know everything,

763
00:39:23.119 --> 00:39:27.079
and I just refer them to the Jewish people, the

764
00:39:27.159 --> 00:39:31.039
Jewish New York Times, and they said, every letter of

765
00:39:31.079 --> 00:39:35.599
our alphabet, even the modern alphabet, has a significant meaning

766
00:39:35.800 --> 00:39:39.000
attached to it. The English language doesn't have that, but

767
00:39:39.119 --> 00:39:41.599
we make it up. When we text, we put the

768
00:39:41.880 --> 00:39:46.119
letter K, which means okay, or so what or yeah.

769
00:39:46.119 --> 00:39:49.360
So Carl, we got to hit the pause button, hold

770
00:39:49.400 --> 00:39:51.599
it there, and we'll pick it up on the other side.

771
00:39:51.639 --> 00:39:53.760

Why do I go to the doctor working on the farm,

783
00:40:27.199 --> 00:40:29.480
my heart kept skipping a beat. I didn't think much

784
00:40:29.519 --> 00:40:31.679
of it, but my daughters made me get checked out.

785
00:40:31.920 --> 00:40:35.159
Turns out I have atrial fibrillation, which increases the risk

786
00:40:35.199 --> 00:40:36.559
of stroke about five times.

787
00:40:37.079 --> 00:40:40.639
Symptoms like a regular heartbeat, heart racing, chest pain, shortness

788
00:40:40.639 --> 00:40:43.039
of breath, fatigue, or light headedness can come and go,

789
00:40:43.360 --> 00:40:45.519
but if it's a FIB, the risk of stroke remains.

790
00:40:45.760 --> 00:40:47.840
If you have symptoms, contact a doctor.

791
00:40:48.280 --> 00:40:49.559

00:43:57.119 --> 00:43:59.199
Hey, as promise we're back when you. Bill Martinez here

852
00:43:59.239 --> 00:44:02.760
with a senior past Grahamic Baptist Church in Florida, the

853
00:44:03.360 --> 00:44:08.199
former decorated Florida law enforcement officer and Amazon best selling

854
00:44:08.239 --> 00:44:11.320
author Carl gallups. Carl, go ahead and pick it up

855
00:44:11.360 --> 00:44:12.199
for where we left off.

856
00:44:12.239 --> 00:44:14.559
I'm sorry, yeah, no, no, it's fine. I mean, I

857
00:44:15.159 --> 00:44:18.079
do media. I understand how this works. But anyway, just

858
00:44:18.119 --> 00:44:21.000
a quick review. So yahweh is the most ancient name.

859
00:44:21.320 --> 00:44:25.440
You'd hey wah hey, and in modern it'd be you'd

860
00:44:25.719 --> 00:44:30.920
you hey, you'd hey vov hey. But anyway, hotets. In

861
00:44:31.000 --> 00:44:34.119
twenty thirteen the Amazing Hebrew Alphabet, they said that each

862
00:44:34.239 --> 00:44:36.559
letter of the Hebrew alphabet has a meaning, and then

863
00:44:36.599 --> 00:44:39.119
they go on to say it's not necessary to know

864
00:44:39.239 --> 00:44:41.400
that to write it or to read it, but it's

865
00:44:41.559 --> 00:44:45.239
very interesting. Well, they're absolutely right. They didn't go as

866
00:44:45.280 --> 00:44:47.440
deep as I'm getting ready to go on that name.

867
00:44:47.519 --> 00:44:50.559
And see when you said bob, that that clinched it

868
00:44:50.639 --> 00:44:55.239
for me. So you'd hey, vov hey or wah hey.

869
00:44:55.320 --> 00:44:57.239
You hear it right there, And this is the year

870
00:44:57.280 --> 00:45:00.280
of the wah or the bob according to what you

871
00:45:00.320 --> 00:45:06.519
just said. Well, yah, wah can mean connectivity, anything that

872
00:45:06.599 --> 00:45:10.079
connects something or secures something to something else. Okay, And

873
00:45:10.159 --> 00:45:12.239
so then you can go from there, what does that

874
00:45:12.280 --> 00:45:16.360
mean about this year? But watch this, here's what those

875
00:45:16.440 --> 00:45:21.639
letters mean in their root sense. You'd means the hand

876
00:45:21.880 --> 00:45:25.760
or even the arms, the outstretched arms, right hand, okay,

877
00:45:25.840 --> 00:45:31.840
you hey means behold look at this wah and by

878
00:45:31.840 --> 00:45:34.800
the way, that's shoes twice Hey, behold behold. So let

879
00:45:34.800 --> 00:45:37.960
me get to the wah or the vove. It means connectivity,

880
00:45:37.960 --> 00:45:41.519
but it is root. It means nails and or a

881
00:45:41.599 --> 00:45:46.960
spear and or a peg or a spike. God says,

882
00:45:47.239 --> 00:45:49.559
you want to know my name, Look at the letters.

883
00:45:49.880 --> 00:45:54.199
Behold the hands, behold the nails, behold the spear. That's

884
00:45:54.239 --> 00:46:00.519
who I am, Oh my goodness. Sabariah twelve one hundred

885
00:46:00.599 --> 00:46:03.039
years before Jesus went to the cross, said, and in

886
00:46:03.159 --> 00:46:07.440
that day you will look upon me, says Yahweh, the

887
00:46:07.440 --> 00:46:11.480
one whom you have pierced, says Yahweh, and you will

888
00:46:11.480 --> 00:46:14.519
mourn for him as an only son. I mean the

889
00:46:14.599 --> 00:46:18.360
connectivity of all athletes and the scriptures, and where we

890
00:46:18.400 --> 00:46:21.480
are now in history, on the other side of Gougattha,

891
00:46:21.760 --> 00:46:24.679
on the other side of the return of Israel, prophesied

892
00:46:24.760 --> 00:46:28.920
fifty times in the Old Testament, also that Persia Aram

893
00:46:29.000 --> 00:46:32.440
would attack it in the very last days. We're watching

894
00:46:32.480 --> 00:46:35.480
it all unfold. And here's the sad part, and then

895
00:46:35.519 --> 00:46:37.519
I'll tell you the good part. The sad part is

896
00:46:37.760 --> 00:46:40.199
most of the church doesn't know anything we're talking about, right.

897
00:46:40.320 --> 00:46:40.519
Yeah.

898
00:46:41.119 --> 00:46:44.639
The good part is that many people are coming to you, Isshue.

899
00:46:44.880 --> 00:46:47.960
They don't know. They see the uncertain times and they're

900
00:46:48.000 --> 00:46:50.559
beginning to explore the kind of things we're talking about,

901
00:46:50.679 --> 00:46:52.480
and they're coming to him.

902
00:46:52.559 --> 00:46:54.199
The good part is that God knows it.

903
00:46:54.440 --> 00:46:57.840
Yeah, and he's connecting it all. It's the year of connectivity.

904
00:46:58.119 --> 00:47:00.760
The thing that blew me away as I was talking

905
00:47:00.800 --> 00:47:04.079
about the Hebrew year was is five seven eighty six,

906
00:47:04.400 --> 00:47:07.440
right now? That is that is going on, and it

907
00:47:07.480 --> 00:47:10.960
will go. It started on September the twenty second last year,

908
00:47:11.239 --> 00:47:14.400
and will end September the eleventh of this year is

909
00:47:14.440 --> 00:47:17.480
the year of the vov. Also, as you know, because

910
00:47:18.159 --> 00:47:20.599
you know this so much better than I do, is

911
00:47:20.760 --> 00:47:25.440
when you look at the letter the viv, it looks

912
00:47:25.480 --> 00:47:26.000
like a nail.

913
00:47:27.440 --> 00:47:32.440
It does. And listen in the Paleo Hebrew, in the

914
00:47:32.480 --> 00:47:37.719
Ancient Hebrew, the first letter alofh in the last letter tuv,

915
00:47:38.519 --> 00:47:43.440
those have meanings. Alaf means God, just God. He's the first,

916
00:47:43.480 --> 00:47:45.679
all right. He calls himself the first, in the last.

917
00:47:45.840 --> 00:47:50.679
In Isaiah about five times. Jesus calls himself the first

918
00:47:50.679 --> 00:47:53.559
and the last twice in Revelation. I'm the first and last,

919
00:47:53.599 --> 00:47:56.159
the beginning. In the end, he's the Greek has written

920
00:47:56.239 --> 00:47:58.880
used to write his words, the alpha and the omega.

921
00:47:58.920 --> 00:48:02.760
He's saying that alph and the tab. Okay, So you're right.

922
00:48:02.840 --> 00:48:05.519
The wa looks like a nail. It looks like it

923
00:48:05.559 --> 00:48:09.159
looks like a railroad spike right exactly then, But then

924
00:48:09.280 --> 00:48:13.880
but watch Alf means God. Listen on a messousa the

925
00:48:14.000 --> 00:48:16.639
letter sheen. It looks like our w. It's not a w,

926
00:48:16.760 --> 00:48:19.000
but it kind of looks like that, and it's the sheen,

927
00:48:19.199 --> 00:48:22.960
which means almighty God. Just that one letter means almighty God.

928
00:48:23.079 --> 00:48:26.199
El shad dye. You hear it, el shad die. So

929
00:48:26.320 --> 00:48:30.119
now watch the alaph means God the top the tav

930
00:48:30.280 --> 00:48:33.400
the last letter of the Hebrew alphabet, and the paleo

931
00:48:33.480 --> 00:48:35.920
the ancient. And I've got in my books and on

932
00:48:36.159 --> 00:48:42.159
PowerPoint conferences I do. I've got pictures of the actual artifacts,

933
00:48:42.159 --> 00:48:45.280
the oldest artifacts of Paleo Hebrew. And so what I'm

934
00:48:45.320 --> 00:48:46.960
saying is true. You can see it with your own

935
00:48:47.000 --> 00:48:50.440
eyes in my books and conferences. But but the tav,

936
00:48:50.519 --> 00:48:55.199
the last letter, is shaped like a crucifixion cross. Now

937
00:48:55.639 --> 00:48:59.079
when you put Oliph and Tav together, I am the

938
00:48:59.079 --> 00:49:01.440
God who go to the cross. And by the way,

939
00:49:01.480 --> 00:49:04.800
the meaning of the tab is the covenant. I'm the

940
00:49:04.840 --> 00:49:07.880
God that makes the covenant with you by the cross.

941
00:49:08.199 --> 00:49:11.199
Oh my goodness, It's like, how can you by miss this?

942
00:49:11.559 --> 00:49:14.079
And so now we have the you'd hey wha hey,

943
00:49:14.400 --> 00:49:17.039
and the valve or the waw meaning nails or it

944
00:49:17.079 --> 00:49:19.440
can be used as a spear, anything like that that

945
00:49:19.599 --> 00:49:23.599
punctures and holds something to something else, like the cross.

946
00:49:24.000 --> 00:49:26.599
And so we look at all of this, and then

947
00:49:26.639 --> 00:49:30.119
we consider the product prophetic times we're in. We're watching

948
00:49:30.159 --> 00:49:34.239
the upheaval in the world. We're watching the speed of light,

949
00:49:34.960 --> 00:49:38.320
progression of technology. Some of it's going to be great,

950
00:49:38.440 --> 00:49:41.440
most of it's going to be pure evil. Revelation thirteen

951
00:49:41.519 --> 00:49:44.880
talks about the Antichrist system and the technology used to

952
00:49:45.039 --> 00:49:48.760
track everybody on the Earth. And you got to have

953
00:49:48.840 --> 00:49:51.760
a certain mark or you can't even buy, sell and eat.

954
00:49:52.039 --> 00:49:53.039
How do you know.

955
00:49:53.239 --> 00:49:56.400
Where eight billion people are eating and buying and selling

956
00:49:56.440 --> 00:50:00.320
it through AI and quantum mechanics and the cloud, gathering

957
00:50:00.360 --> 00:50:03.360
information and doing profiles on each and every one of us.

958
00:50:03.639 --> 00:50:06.519
And that's all over the news right now. That that

959
00:50:06.679 --> 00:50:08.760
infrastructure is already happening.

960
00:50:08.960 --> 00:50:11.320
The man made infrastructure is well into place.

961
00:50:11.559 --> 00:50:11.800
Yep.

962
00:50:12.079 --> 00:50:15.719
Remind me again of the you said the three the letter,

963
00:50:15.760 --> 00:50:19.760
the three parts. What struck me is that could that

964
00:50:19.840 --> 00:50:22.719
represent Ilohem, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit?

965
00:50:23.360 --> 00:50:25.320
Yeah? Now, which what was you talking about.

966
00:50:25.039 --> 00:50:28.079
That when you were talking about what was on in

967
00:50:28.199 --> 00:50:30.719
young way in the in the two ends, the alpha

968
00:50:30.760 --> 00:50:33.360
and the omega beginning and end, and you said in

969
00:50:33.400 --> 00:50:36.400
the middle the letter you said you held up three fingers.

970
00:50:36.599 --> 00:50:38.239
Yeah, yeah, no, no, No, I was. I was talking

971
00:50:38.239 --> 00:50:41.320
about the letter Sheen, which is twenty first letter. Yeah,

972
00:50:41.559 --> 00:50:43.719
tov is the last letter of the twenty second letter,

973
00:50:43.960 --> 00:50:46.679
the Sheen. And no, no, you see three fingers, but

974
00:50:46.760 --> 00:50:50.599
it is in the shape of similar very similar to

975
00:50:50.679 --> 00:50:52.880
our W. It's more of a V shape with a

976
00:50:52.960 --> 00:50:57.760
line coming in the middle. Well that that letter means

977
00:50:57.920 --> 00:51:01.960
stands for Almighty God, el should die. But you know

978
00:51:02.039 --> 00:51:04.440
what I mean, I've never thought about that, the three

979
00:51:04.559 --> 00:51:07.679
branches of it God. Just as you're.

980
00:51:07.559 --> 00:51:11.599
Talking, I'm thinking, because that that is what holds it

981
00:51:11.639 --> 00:51:14.960
all together. Yes, it is the harmony of Father, Son

982
00:51:15.000 --> 00:51:15.800
and Holy Spirit.

983
00:51:16.079 --> 00:51:18.360
Yeah, I'm going to steal that from you and preach

984
00:51:18.400 --> 00:51:19.760
it and not even give you credit for it.

985
00:51:20.079 --> 00:51:22.679
That's okay, I wouldn't It wouldn't be. It wouldn't be

986
00:51:22.719 --> 00:51:23.639
the first time.

987
00:51:25.880 --> 00:51:30.440
I'm saying that about me to you. That was an erudite,

988
00:51:31.559 --> 00:51:33.719
uh revelation that.

989
00:51:33.760 --> 00:51:34.199
You just.

990
00:51:36.400 --> 00:51:38.880
It's the Holy Spirit, that's what you know. This is

991
00:51:38.880 --> 00:51:41.440
what I love about our time together because God moves

992
00:51:41.440 --> 00:51:44.960
in such a way between us when we connect. It's like,

993
00:51:45.119 --> 00:51:49.199
this is why God does not want the faithful, you know,

994
00:51:49.320 --> 00:51:51.960
to be islands unto themselves. This is why you need

995
00:51:52.000 --> 00:51:54.840
to come together and hopefully this is what we're exampling

996
00:51:54.880 --> 00:51:56.360
and demonstrating to the faithful.

997
00:51:56.800 --> 00:52:00.679
Yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely, no, it's great. How much more

998
00:52:00.679 --> 00:52:02.760
time do we have? Just give me about three and

999
00:52:02.760 --> 00:52:05.119
a half minutes, About three and a half minutes. All right, good,

1000
00:52:05.199 --> 00:52:07.239
But I just want to make sure I didn't overtalk

1001
00:52:07.440 --> 00:52:07.960
our time.

1002
00:52:08.239 --> 00:52:11.360
No, no, this is this has been wonderful because what

1003
00:52:11.400 --> 00:52:14.199
this all comes down to in this this teaching here

1004
00:52:14.719 --> 00:52:17.280
is that because time is drawing near, Like you said,

1005
00:52:17.280 --> 00:52:20.679
we're not we're not declaring any dates here, but clearly,

1006
00:52:21.119 --> 00:52:23.119
I mean, look at when you have. Billy Graham before

1007
00:52:23.119 --> 00:52:27.079
his passing, was asked by a reporter, you know, doctor Graham,

1008
00:52:27.079 --> 00:52:28.760
are we in the last days? He goes, oh no,

1009
00:52:29.440 --> 00:52:32.039
and he goes, we're in the last of the last days.

1010
00:52:32.400 --> 00:52:36.599
Billy Graham wasn't setting but even Jesus said, hey, look

1011
00:52:36.599 --> 00:52:38.320
at the tree, you guys. You guys can look at

1012
00:52:38.320 --> 00:52:40.320
the tree, and you can you know, you see when

1013
00:52:40.360 --> 00:52:44.039
casons are coming, you know. So we're looking, we're looking

1014
00:52:44.079 --> 00:52:46.400
at the evidence, we're looking at the fruit and saying, hey,

1015
00:52:46.760 --> 00:52:49.679
God's up to his god thing here and we need

1016
00:52:49.760 --> 00:52:53.320
to go see this is all about alignment. You either

1017
00:52:53.400 --> 00:52:57.480
are aligned with God and the destination that he's bringing

1018
00:52:57.559 --> 00:53:01.320
us to, which is eternity, or you're not and you

1019
00:53:01.360 --> 00:53:03.679
don't want to be on the outside looking in.

1020
00:53:04.239 --> 00:53:07.519
That's right, that's right. And listen, you know I've been

1021
00:53:07.599 --> 00:53:09.599
using a statement very similar to what you said. Billy

1022
00:53:09.639 --> 00:53:12.000
Graham said, and I realized I must have stolen it

1023
00:53:12.000 --> 00:53:15.360
from Billy Graham. But I say it with different words.

1024
00:53:15.400 --> 00:53:18.159
I say the same thing, and that is, the end

1025
00:53:18.199 --> 00:53:21.599
times are not coming. The end times are here now.

1026
00:53:21.800 --> 00:53:26.719
I don't set dates. Ever since the Crucifixion, the Bible

1027
00:53:26.760 --> 00:53:30.320
says that's when the last days began. Paul says that

1028
00:53:31.280 --> 00:53:34.440
very clearly. So it's been two thousand years. But with

1029
00:53:34.480 --> 00:53:37.159
the Lord, one day is that thousand years. One thousand

1030
00:53:37.280 --> 00:53:39.360
years is a day, So I mean, it's only been

1031
00:53:39.360 --> 00:53:44.599
two days in God's kingdom. But the point is it's

1032
00:53:44.639 --> 00:53:46.920
getting so much closer with the return of Israel. The

1033
00:53:46.920 --> 00:53:52.920
explosion of technology, unprecedented explosion which Daniel talks about, Jesus

1034
00:53:52.960 --> 00:53:57.480
talks about twice in Matthew twenty four, Revelation talks about it,

1035
00:53:57.519 --> 00:54:00.559
Revelation thirteen talks about it. All of these things that

1036
00:54:00.559 --> 00:54:02.599
were said in the Bible thousands of years ago. That

1037
00:54:02.719 --> 00:54:06.800
made no sense. Back then, only technology could make that sense.

1038
00:54:07.119 --> 00:54:10.039
And now it is happening, and the very things they described,

1039
00:54:10.119 --> 00:54:14.960
it's actually happening. Only in our generation. I preach and

1040
00:54:15.000 --> 00:54:17.280
teach on this. We don't have time now. Maybe some

1041
00:54:17.360 --> 00:54:19.559
other time you can have me own and explain those

1042
00:54:19.599 --> 00:54:22.039
things so people will know that I'm not just pulling

1043
00:54:22.039 --> 00:54:24.360
this out of my back pocket, but it's there. We're

1044
00:54:24.400 --> 00:54:27.599
watching all of this happen now around is attacking Israel,

1045
00:54:27.639 --> 00:54:30.599
and we're getting ready to attack around again in less

1046
00:54:30.599 --> 00:54:34.000
than a year. So brother, it's boiling, it's boiling, and

1047
00:54:34.039 --> 00:54:35.639
the pot's about to boil over.

1048
00:54:36.320 --> 00:54:38.679
Yeah, without a doubt. Well, I've maintained that ever since

1049
00:54:38.719 --> 00:54:41.679
Israel in nineteen forty eight became a nation again. When

1050
00:54:41.679 --> 00:54:44.280
you look at the prophetic clock, I said, the hour

1051
00:54:44.400 --> 00:54:47.320
hand of God's prophetic clock was set, and since then,

1052
00:54:47.679 --> 00:54:51.440
minutes and seconds, sir, you see the hands just spinning around.

1053
00:54:51.440 --> 00:54:53.239
Go ahead, yes, with fifty seconds left, go.

1054
00:54:53.239 --> 00:54:58.880
Ahead, just very quickly. Two gigantic cataclysmic events that changed

1055
00:54:58.880 --> 00:55:02.119
the world forever and have influenced the world ever since

1056
00:55:02.400 --> 00:55:05.400
the first Coming of Jesus. Go Gotha the Resurrection our

1057
00:55:05.440 --> 00:55:09.119
calendars dated twenty twenty six as we're talking. The second

1058
00:55:09.159 --> 00:55:11.719
one was the Return of Israel in nineteen forty eight.

1059
00:55:11.800 --> 00:55:14.760
All of it prophesied three hundred prophecies about go gotta

1060
00:55:15.039 --> 00:55:17.840
fifty prophecies about the return of Israel. We're the first

1061
00:55:17.880 --> 00:55:20.159
generation to live on the other side of all of that,

1062
00:55:20.719 --> 00:55:24.000
and it's all folding in on itself and happening just

1063
00:55:24.079 --> 00:55:25.079
like God's words said.

1064
00:55:25.480 --> 00:55:26.239
How cool is that?

1065
00:55:26.400 --> 00:55:26.679
Huh?

1066
00:55:26.760 --> 00:55:29.800
Yeah, that's so awesome. Can you say a word of

1067
00:55:29.800 --> 00:55:30.519
blessing over you?

1068
00:55:30.599 --> 00:55:32.760
And yes, please go ahead, yes, go ahead and wrap

1069
00:55:32.840 --> 00:55:33.159
us up.

1070
00:55:33.480 --> 00:55:38.880
Okay, just I'll just say this, Shalom alek beshim yashuahamashiak

Lord forever.

1074
00:55:51.800 --> 00:55:54.400

Bill Martinez Live.

1103
00:57:17.079 --> 00:57:19.119
Hey, good morning, six minutes after the top of the hour,

1104
00:57:19.199 --> 00:57:22.199
right now, Bill Martinez here, and we've got doctor John Lott.

1105
00:57:22.800 --> 00:57:25.079
He's the president of the Crime Prevention Research Center and

1106
00:57:25.079 --> 00:57:27.679
author of Gun Control Missed. Hey John, good morning.

1107
00:57:27.400 --> 00:57:30.800
How are you doing great? Tay you We got a lot.

1108
00:57:31.039 --> 00:57:33.079
Yeah, I mean, I'm like you. I mean, we've got

1109
00:57:33.119 --> 00:57:35.679
a lot going on. I mean, you know, with what's

1110
00:57:35.679 --> 00:57:38.960
happening with Iron and you know, I keep saying over

1111
00:57:39.000 --> 00:57:40.760
and over again, this seems to be the case with

1112
00:57:40.840 --> 00:57:45.199
this administration. You know, precision thought, precision planning gets you

1113
00:57:45.280 --> 00:57:48.960
precision results. So far, so good. Huh.

1114
00:57:49.039 --> 00:57:53.880
Yeah, No, I've been I think everybody's been pleasantly surprised

1115
00:57:53.920 --> 00:57:56.800
by how well things seem to be working, even though

1116
00:57:56.800 --> 00:57:59.760
the media and many others want to go and claim

1117
00:57:59.800 --> 00:58:01.079
the already.

1118
00:58:01.199 --> 00:58:08.440
But you know, Iran has been a threat to not

1119
00:58:08.679 --> 00:58:12.920
just been a threat to much of the world, and

1120
00:58:14.000 --> 00:58:18.480
and you know, hopefully this will make the world a

1121
00:58:18.559 --> 00:58:21.480
safer place, you know, and you combine that with what's

1122
00:58:21.519 --> 00:58:27.880
happened in Venezuela, you know, Trump will really have made

1123
00:58:27.920 --> 00:58:31.960
a difference. You know. There's a guy named Dan Turantine

1124
00:58:32.400 --> 00:58:35.960
who's a Democratic strategist, and I was listening to him

1125
00:58:36.000 --> 00:58:39.800
the other day and he was he was saying, you know,

1126
00:58:39.920 --> 00:58:43.159
he's skeptical obviously on many things, but he was saying,

1127
00:58:43.159 --> 00:58:46.559
if Trump pulls this off, even if I guess he

1128
00:58:46.599 --> 00:58:49.960
gets even close, he's going to have to have his

1129
00:58:50.960 --> 00:58:52.719
picture up on Mount Rushmore.

1130
00:58:54.840 --> 00:58:58.199
Yeah, just a nice side anecdote there like that would

1131
00:58:58.239 --> 00:59:01.599
ever happen. I'm sure they'd get so I'm excavator or

1132
00:59:01.639 --> 00:59:04.440
somebody to make sure that that part of the mountain

1133
00:59:04.559 --> 00:59:08.480
was cut out. The Democrats would just lose their skulls altogether,

1134
00:59:09.159 --> 00:59:11.599
There's no doubt about it. But you know, hey, look

1135
00:59:11.639 --> 00:59:15.840
at I would agree that what Donald Trump has done.

1136
00:59:15.880 --> 00:59:18.679
I mean, he is such a seminal figure for this

1137
00:59:18.800 --> 00:59:20.840
time and the kind of things that are happening. The

1138
00:59:20.920 --> 00:59:24.119
thing that is aggravating to me, John, I will just say,

1139
00:59:24.400 --> 00:59:27.840
as an American who wants the best for America and Americans,

1140
00:59:29.039 --> 00:59:31.519
I'm not much one to play in politics to say, well,

1141
00:59:31.519 --> 00:59:33.400
I want to be a Republican or Democrat, because I

1142
00:59:33.400 --> 00:59:36.639
think that that adds to the contention and it takes

1143
00:59:36.719 --> 00:59:39.039
us off course. We've got to think what's in the

1144
00:59:39.039 --> 00:59:41.960
best interests of this country and which is in the

1145
00:59:41.960 --> 00:59:47.239
best interest of our citizens and what Donald Trump basically,

1146
00:59:47.360 --> 00:59:50.320
I mean, if you play this out, he has reshuffled

1147
00:59:50.320 --> 00:59:53.079
the deck in terms of the world order, right.

1148
00:59:54.760 --> 01:00:00.679
He has. I mean, the world's a different place. You know, China,

1149
01:00:00.719 --> 01:00:04.119
which we got a lot of it's oil from Venezuela,

1150
01:00:04.239 --> 01:00:09.840
and I guess Ran. You know, he's he's made their

1151
01:00:09.880 --> 01:00:13.760
life more difficult. And you know, you kind of think

1152
01:00:13.800 --> 01:00:18.840
of the axis of evil. You had Russia and China

1153
01:00:18.880 --> 01:00:22.840
and North Korea and Iran and Venezuela. You know, you're

1154
01:00:22.960 --> 01:00:27.559
kind of knocking some of the legs out from underneath

1155
01:00:27.840 --> 01:00:31.760
those groups. So you know, it's just you know, maybe

1156
01:00:31.880 --> 01:00:33.280
Cuba will be next.

1157
01:00:33.280 --> 01:00:35.960
Right, exactly, That's what he said, John, What why why

1158
01:00:36.480 --> 01:00:39.280
why didn't the Democrats act on this? I mean, this

1159
01:00:39.360 --> 01:00:42.760
has been an emerging threat for decades. This doesn't this

1160
01:00:42.800 --> 01:00:46.199
didn't happen just yesterday. I mean here, you know Iran.

1161
01:00:46.880 --> 01:00:49.760
I mean, can you imagine the negotiations. They go into

1162
01:00:49.800 --> 01:00:52.360
the negotiation and say, hey, we've got we're already up

1163
01:00:52.360 --> 01:00:55.800
to sixty percent, and we can produce eleven nuclear bombs.

1164
01:00:55.840 --> 01:00:58.119
So what do you say about that? Well, you know,

1165
01:00:58.119 --> 01:01:00.480
two days later, Trump had a lot to say about

1166
01:01:00.519 --> 01:01:03.880
it in terms of, you know, some military messages. Right.

1167
01:01:05.559 --> 01:01:07.079
Well, I mean it's a very different view of the

1168
01:01:07.079 --> 01:01:12.159
world on how to handle things. You know. I guess

1169
01:01:12.280 --> 01:01:15.920
the best you could say with Obama is that and

1170
01:01:16.119 --> 01:01:20.480
Biden is that they thought if they gave the Iranians

1171
01:01:20.599 --> 01:01:24.119
lots of things they could kind of buy their friendship,

1172
01:01:24.880 --> 01:01:28.280
and my own guess is that the Iranians just kind

1173
01:01:28.280 --> 01:01:32.199
of viewed them as suckers there that didn't change their

1174
01:01:32.280 --> 01:01:37.760
ultimate goals in Iran, and it allowed all the money

1175
01:01:37.800 --> 01:01:40.360
that was given to them, allowed them to go and

1176
01:01:41.079 --> 01:01:44.159
prop up their proxies in the Middle East, cause all

1177
01:01:44.199 --> 01:01:48.639
sorts of problems that were there and didn't change their

1178
01:01:48.719 --> 01:01:51.320
end goal, just made it easier for them to get

1179
01:01:51.440 --> 01:01:58.920
to it. The agreement that Obama had with Iran, all

1180
01:01:58.960 --> 01:02:01.639
it did was kind of give them a ten year

1181
01:02:01.880 --> 01:02:05.079
window in order to try to accomplish what they wanted

1182
01:02:05.119 --> 01:02:08.559
before they could break out. And so, uh, you know,

1183
01:02:08.639 --> 01:02:11.039
at best, you could just say it just delayed it.

1184
01:02:11.679 --> 01:02:14.440
The official uh you know problem occurring.

1185
01:02:15.039 --> 01:02:18.400
Well, you could say in a sense that Obama's administration

1186
01:02:18.639 --> 01:02:22.360
sponsored co sponsored all this terrorist activity. I mean, you

1187
01:02:22.400 --> 01:02:26.639
send billions a billion dollars in unmarked bills, you know,

1188
01:02:26.679 --> 01:02:29.440
to the Ayatola in hope of I don't know, like

1189
01:02:29.480 --> 01:02:32.800
you said, playing nice, maybe making a friend, doing whatever,

1190
01:02:33.480 --> 01:02:38.320
and they set out to U embolden and uh and

1191
01:02:38.400 --> 01:02:43.719
facilitate these terrorists, the Houthis and Hezbollah and Hamas, thank

1192
01:02:43.760 --> 01:02:44.360
you very much.

1193
01:02:45.480 --> 01:02:52.920
Yeah, well, you know, uh, obviously it didn't stop Iran

1194
01:02:53.280 --> 01:02:56.360
from going and doing the horrible things that it was doing.

1195
01:02:57.760 --> 01:03:01.519
They were just doubling down all the time, you know,

1196
01:03:01.599 --> 01:03:06.440
So hopefully people learn that, you know, they couldn't be

1197
01:03:06.480 --> 01:03:09.079
trusted on that, but it's an expensive lesson.

1198
01:03:09.559 --> 01:03:11.440
Well, they can't be trusted, and even people in our

1199
01:03:11.480 --> 01:03:14.320
own government can be trusted, John, because I mean, with

1200
01:03:14.400 --> 01:03:17.239
all due respect, i mean what I'm seeing is that

1201
01:03:17.920 --> 01:03:20.760
we've got so many people in elected office that are

1202
01:03:20.880 --> 01:03:24.519
truly anti American. I mean, they're on a different agenda altogether.

1203
01:03:24.559 --> 01:03:27.519
And I know that may sound severe, but all you

1204
01:03:27.519 --> 01:03:30.280
have to do is look at their choices and you know,

1205
01:03:30.360 --> 01:03:33.000
listen to what they say. I mean, it's almost like,

1206
01:03:33.400 --> 01:03:36.400
I mean, here we are, we're in a military campaign

1207
01:03:36.639 --> 01:03:40.480
against Iran, and you've got almost half of the country

1208
01:03:40.920 --> 01:03:45.000
cheering against a victory for America and the world. I mean,

1209
01:03:45.199 --> 01:03:47.480
it's astounding to me. Yeah.

1210
01:03:47.480 --> 01:03:49.880
Well, you just had a vote today in the House.

1211
01:03:49.960 --> 01:03:55.280
It was a non binding resolution saying that Iran had

1212
01:03:55.320 --> 01:04:00.840
been a major sponsor the sponsor of terrorism around the world.

1213
01:04:01.480 --> 01:04:05.239
And I can't remember, it was like fifty three something

1214
01:04:05.360 --> 01:04:09.880
like that members of the House voted against that. You

1215
01:04:10.079 --> 01:04:15.400
people like AOC and others who basically was all Democrats

1216
01:04:15.440 --> 01:04:21.800
I believe, who voted against that. So, you know, if

1217
01:04:21.800 --> 01:04:24.840
you can't even agree on something like that, you have

1218
01:04:25.360 --> 01:04:26.599
there's a big issue there.

1219
01:04:27.440 --> 01:04:29.519
Well, John, you monitors, it's.

1220
01:04:29.360 --> 01:04:31.679
Outside my area of expertise generally.

1221
01:04:32.239 --> 01:04:34.599
Well I get that, I get that, But you monitor

1222
01:04:34.679 --> 01:04:37.480
the numbers. I mean, the numbers help lead you to

1223
01:04:37.519 --> 01:04:40.960
the facts. And how can the Democrats be so devoid

1224
01:04:41.559 --> 01:04:44.440
of the facts to come up? I mean, are they

1225
01:04:44.519 --> 01:04:49.760
just so ideologically fixed and their hatred for Trump and therefore,

1226
01:04:49.840 --> 01:04:53.119
you know, fifty percent of America translates to this kind

1227
01:04:53.199 --> 01:04:57.599
of you know, imaginings.

1228
01:04:58.679 --> 01:05:01.920
Look, yeah, I mean, it's kind of above my pay

1229
01:05:01.960 --> 01:05:04.400
grade to figure out what's going on in somebody's mind

1230
01:05:04.639 --> 01:05:08.719
on this stuff. But surely the hatred of Trump kind

1231
01:05:08.719 --> 01:05:12.639
of colors everything. And you just look at the move

1232
01:05:12.719 --> 01:05:16.679
by the Democrats over this week about for war powers

1233
01:05:16.920 --> 01:05:24.239
type issues. Obviously you had you know, Obama and Biden

1234
01:05:24.360 --> 01:05:29.840
and Clinton go and use military force without the Democrats

1235
01:05:29.920 --> 01:05:33.559
rushing to the floor to say that they hadn't gotten

1236
01:05:33.679 --> 01:05:40.239
proper congressional approval. Let's say exactly and I was cahem.

1237
01:05:40.840 --> 01:05:46.719
Jeff Jeffries was just asked about the difference between Obama

1238
01:05:47.280 --> 01:05:53.079
going in bombing Libya and Trump bombing Iran right now,

1239
01:05:53.760 --> 01:05:58.039
and he just said, well, it's different. I wish and

1240
01:05:58.119 --> 01:06:02.320
I wish. I wish somebody would have kind of pushed

1241
01:06:02.320 --> 01:06:04.559
the issue a little bit more to get him to

1242
01:06:04.920 --> 01:06:05.880
add Easy.

1243
01:06:05.679 --> 01:06:10.000
Explained, he's intolerable. There's no room for explanation for him.

1244
01:06:10.159 --> 01:06:11.960
You just got to take him for what he says.

1245
01:06:11.960 --> 01:06:14.079
And that's it. We've got to go to quick break.

1246

1333
01:10:49.880 --> 01:10:53.239
And welcome back Bill Martinez here with doctor John Lott.

1334
01:10:54.239 --> 01:10:56.960
John is at the book and he's the author of

1335
01:10:57.039 --> 01:11:01.560
the book Gun Control Miss He's the president and founder

1336
01:11:01.640 --> 01:11:05.439
of the Crime Prevention Research Center. John, I want to

1337
01:11:05.479 --> 01:11:08.720
talk about, you know something of note that a lot

1338
01:11:08.720 --> 01:11:11.239
of people are talking about, and that is, you know,

1339
01:11:11.279 --> 01:11:14.920
the big headline, the rate of transgender violence much worse

1340
01:11:14.960 --> 01:11:17.039
than the media admits, right.

1341
01:11:18.079 --> 01:11:21.560
Yeah, No, it's really a statistical malpractice on the part

1342
01:11:21.600 --> 01:11:24.439
of much of the media. You know, they'll go and

1343
01:11:24.479 --> 01:11:28.800
they'll say, look, transgenders may make up ten percent or

1344
01:11:28.840 --> 01:11:33.760
whatever of active shooting attacks, and that's just a small percentage,

1345
01:11:33.800 --> 01:11:38.000
so that doesn't really matter. But the problem is they

1346
01:11:38.119 --> 01:11:42.600
don't do kind of the most basic things there, such

1347
01:11:42.640 --> 01:11:47.720
as going and accounting for their share of the population.

1348
01:11:48.640 --> 01:11:50.760
A group makes up ten percent of the shootings, but

1349
01:11:50.880 --> 01:11:56.279
only you know, one percent or less of the population

1350
01:11:56.399 --> 01:11:59.199
that's there. You say, look, it's pretty clear that their

1351
01:11:59.239 --> 01:12:09.119
disproportion involved. So you know, that's just one thing. The

1352
01:12:09.199 --> 01:12:12.399
other thing is kind of what you compare it to

1353
01:12:13.399 --> 01:12:16.640
some of the media outlets. I mean, this is based

1354
01:12:16.720 --> 01:12:20.720
in these errors are true across everything from the Associated

1355
01:12:20.720 --> 01:12:24.720
Press to the New York Times to you know, PolitiFact

1356
01:12:24.800 --> 01:12:30.199
and others. You know, you what group do you compare

1357
01:12:30.199 --> 01:12:33.399
it to? So some of these news media outlets want

1358
01:12:33.439 --> 01:12:37.479
to use the measure of mass shootings from the Gun

1359
01:12:37.560 --> 01:12:41.680
Violence Archive, which is a gun control group. But they

1360
01:12:42.199 --> 01:12:44.279
one of the big things that they have is about

1361
01:12:44.319 --> 01:12:49.479
eighty five percent of their cases our gang fights over

1362
01:12:49.560 --> 01:12:54.840
drug turf. Almost all the rest are robberies. Now, our

1363
01:12:54.880 --> 01:12:59.399
gang fights over drug turf important, yeah, but kind of

1364
01:12:59.840 --> 01:13:03.840
the very different cases from when somebody goes into a

1365
01:13:03.880 --> 01:13:06.920
place with the notion of simply trying to go and

1366
01:13:07.159 --> 01:13:10.640
kill as many innocent people as possible with the goal

1367
01:13:10.680 --> 01:13:14.319
of getting media attention. You know, if you look at

1368
01:13:14.319 --> 01:13:18.880
the FBI definition of active shooting cases, that they try

1369
01:13:18.920 --> 01:13:22.560
to get a handle on that. So though, they define

1370
01:13:22.640 --> 01:13:27.319
active shootings as a gun being fired in public, not

1371
01:13:27.560 --> 01:13:30.000
part of some other type of crime like a gang fight,

1372
01:13:30.039 --> 01:13:33.680
over drug tour, for a robbery, anything from one person

1373
01:13:33.720 --> 01:13:35.479
being shot at and missed all the way up to

1374
01:13:35.520 --> 01:13:39.960
a mass public shooting, and the media itself generally differentiates

1375
01:13:40.000 --> 01:13:42.840
these things. You know, you may have shootings in Chicago

1376
01:13:43.479 --> 01:13:47.079
between gangs. That doesn't get you know, every weekend, you

1377
01:13:47.119 --> 01:13:51.239
get that, you don't get national news stories on that. Instead,

1378
01:13:51.319 --> 01:13:56.279
the media focuses on those cases where you know, they're

1379
01:13:56.359 --> 01:13:59.960
trying to go and kill as many innocent people as

1380
01:14:00.079 --> 01:14:02.960
possible in a movie theater or a mall or a

1381
01:14:03.000 --> 01:14:06.800
grocery store or someplace like that. And so you know,

1382
01:14:06.840 --> 01:14:10.800
the media treats those very differently. But somehow, when they're

1383
01:14:10.920 --> 01:14:15.079
looking at these trans cases, they lump them together with

1384
01:14:15.199 --> 01:14:19.079
these other cases. And look, if you compare it to

1385
01:14:19.119 --> 01:14:24.319
the FBI data on active shootings in twenty twenty four,

1386
01:14:24.479 --> 01:14:26.760
which is the last year that the FBI data is

1387
01:14:26.800 --> 01:14:32.560
out for you have the share of active shooting attacks

1388
01:14:32.600 --> 01:14:36.880
by transgenders is about twelve times their share of the population,

1389
01:14:37.399 --> 01:14:41.439
at least maybe more. If you look at mass public

1390
01:14:41.439 --> 01:14:47.000
shootings from twenty eighteen through twenty twenty five, so mass

1391
01:14:47.239 --> 01:14:51.560
for the FBI is basically four more people killed. And

1392
01:14:51.600 --> 01:14:56.359
if you take so active shooting definition but just limited

1393
01:14:56.439 --> 01:15:00.199
to four more people killed, so mass public shootings, you

1394
01:15:00.239 --> 01:15:03.680
find that it's about over six times their share of

1395
01:15:03.720 --> 01:15:09.239
the population. And those differences are very statistically significant. And

1396
01:15:09.880 --> 01:15:13.359
we go through that the statistical tests on our website

1397
01:15:13.399 --> 01:15:16.840
at crimeresearch dot org, so and people can double check

1398
01:15:16.920 --> 01:15:17.560
the stuff.

1399
01:15:18.000 --> 01:15:20.000
Yeah, well, why how is the media able to get

1400
01:15:20.000 --> 01:15:21.439
away with this? John? I mean it's almost like they're

1401
01:15:21.439 --> 01:15:27.800
creating their own standard, which really defies you know, statistical

1402
01:15:28.079 --> 01:15:30.840
you know, credence and standardization, doesn't it.

1403
01:15:33.279 --> 01:15:36.560
You know, these are basic errors that are there. It's

1404
01:15:36.600 --> 01:15:37.359
like they go out.

1405
01:15:37.199 --> 01:15:40.920
Of their way. It seemed purposefual, purposeful, I mean basic airs. Okay,

1406
01:15:40.920 --> 01:15:43.680
I made a mistake, but I mean this is by design,

1407
01:15:43.720 --> 01:15:44.520
it seems, John.

1408
01:15:45.439 --> 01:15:50.039
Yeah, Look, is it hard to explain you. I mean,

1409
01:15:50.279 --> 01:15:52.560
is it hard do? I try not to get into

1410
01:15:52.600 --> 01:15:55.560
people's minds to know why they're making the mistakes that

1411
01:15:55.640 --> 01:15:58.560
they are. I try to avoid that. What I will

1412
01:15:58.600 --> 01:16:01.119
say is that the reason where we have shows such

1413
01:16:01.159 --> 01:16:04.880
as yours is to go and say, look, people, you know,

1414
01:16:05.319 --> 01:16:07.439
here are some really simple things. I mean, you don't

1415
01:16:07.479 --> 01:16:10.520
even need to be a statistical expert to understand that.

1416
01:16:11.840 --> 01:16:14.000
You know, you've got to control for a group share

1417
01:16:14.039 --> 01:16:16.399
of the population. You know, and we see this in

1418
01:16:16.439 --> 01:16:21.119
many areas, not just this. See you'll see discussions about,

1419
01:16:21.439 --> 01:16:25.960
you know, white men or whatever are disproportionately going and

1420
01:16:26.000 --> 01:16:30.000
engaging in mass public shootings. Well, you know, you may

1421
01:16:30.039 --> 01:16:36.199
have fifty six percent of mass public shootings involved whites,

1422
01:16:36.720 --> 01:16:40.640
but if non Middle Eastern whites make up fifty or

1423
01:16:40.720 --> 01:16:45.279
sixty five percent of the population, they're actually slightly under

1424
01:16:45.479 --> 01:16:51.000
you know, represented. That's there, and so you know, you

1425
01:16:51.079 --> 01:16:54.319
go and you look. You see transgenders are very overrepresented.

1426
01:16:54.399 --> 01:17:00.720
People from Middle Eastern backgrounds are greatly overrepresented. But the

1427
01:17:00.760 --> 01:17:03.399
only way you know that is by kind of comparing

1428
01:17:03.439 --> 01:17:07.319
it to their share of the overall population for those groups.

1429
01:17:07.760 --> 01:17:09.920
Okay, but you see something like these trans numbers and

1430
01:17:09.960 --> 01:17:14.159
you say ten twelve times their population, and you go,

1431
01:17:14.319 --> 01:17:16.119
we got trouble here in River City. I mean, is

1432
01:17:16.119 --> 01:17:19.600
somebody asking that question or are they just arguing saying, oh, well,

1433
01:17:19.600 --> 01:17:24.399
it's just you know, it's such a small percentage, right.

1434
01:17:24.520 --> 01:17:26.760
Well, I mean that's exactly the reason why you care

1435
01:17:26.800 --> 01:17:30.479
about getting this accurate, why you care about doing the

1436
01:17:30.560 --> 01:17:35.359
proper type of analysis on this stuff, because exactly the

1437
01:17:35.399 --> 01:17:39.840
concern that, look, you don't know what the problem is. Okay,

1438
01:17:40.800 --> 01:17:43.760
if you don't go and look at it, and we

1439
01:17:43.800 --> 01:17:46.800
see this in many areas. You and I have talked

1440
01:17:46.840 --> 01:17:51.399
many times about how these mass public shooters go and

1441
01:17:51.640 --> 01:17:57.119
target gun free zones, explicitly go and target places like that. Well,

1442
01:17:57.680 --> 01:18:01.680
you know, if you don't even ask the question, how

1443
01:18:01.680 --> 01:18:05.520
do we know how to properly stop these attacks? And

1444
01:18:05.640 --> 01:18:10.000
so you know, we got to go and try to

1445
01:18:10.039 --> 01:18:12.960
figure these things out and accurately report them. And so

1446
01:18:13.520 --> 01:18:16.000
if you have a group of people, even if it's

1447
01:18:16.239 --> 01:18:20.640
you know, you know, not the majority of attacks, you

1448
01:18:20.760 --> 01:18:26.000
still learn something. And to me, it's not super shocking

1449
01:18:26.479 --> 01:18:31.880
that trans individuals are disproportionately represented in either active shootings

1450
01:18:32.000 --> 01:18:36.000
or mass public shootings, mainly because when you're talking about

1451
01:18:36.000 --> 01:18:41.359
mass public shootings. One common characteristic across these individuals is

1452
01:18:41.399 --> 01:18:46.359
that they're suicidal, that they feel somehow put upon in

1453
01:18:46.399 --> 01:18:49.960
some way. And yet when you go and look at

1454
01:18:49.960 --> 01:18:54.199
trans individuals, they are suicidal at very high rates compared

1455
01:18:54.199 --> 01:18:59.159
to the general population, and so and they also feel

1456
01:18:59.199 --> 01:19:02.359
put upon. So it's not it's not surprising to me

1457
01:19:02.439 --> 01:19:03.600
that they're overrepresented.

1458
01:19:05.279 --> 01:19:06.800
Well, John, we got about a minute and a half left.

1459
01:19:06.840 --> 01:19:09.079
I did want to talk about the California voter ID

1460
01:19:09.279 --> 01:19:13.680
initiative that's cleared the signature threshold, setting up November. You

1461
01:19:13.720 --> 01:19:15.960
say it's setting up in November Showdown with Newsome.

1462
01:19:16.039 --> 01:19:22.039
Huh right, Well, I mean California just recently passed a

1463
01:19:22.119 --> 01:19:25.840
law making it a crime, I guess for you know,

1464
01:19:25.960 --> 01:19:29.479
individual jurisdictions in California to go and ask for voter

1465
01:19:29.600 --> 01:19:34.239
IDs from people, you know. I don't think people realize

1466
01:19:34.279 --> 01:19:37.479
what an outlier the United States is in terms of

1467
01:19:37.640 --> 01:19:42.039
just basic voter integrity type issues. If you look at Europe,

1468
01:19:42.039 --> 01:19:44.680
for example, all of the forty seven countries in Europe,

1469
01:19:45.000 --> 01:19:48.520
forty six and a half of them require government issued

1470
01:19:48.560 --> 01:19:51.720
photo IDs to be able to go and vote. Canada,

1471
01:19:52.079 --> 01:19:55.479
Mexico required government issued photo IDs to be able to

1472
01:19:55.479 --> 01:19:59.239
go and vote. All of South America requires government issued

1473
01:19:59.279 --> 01:20:02.760
photo IDs to be able to vote. You know, across Africa,

1474
01:20:03.760 --> 01:20:06.439
voter IDs are required for people to be able to

1475
01:20:06.479 --> 01:20:07.039
go and vote.

1476
01:20:08.560 --> 01:20:08.760
You know.

1477
01:20:09.159 --> 01:20:13.279
Somehow we have states in the United States that just think,

1478
01:20:13.800 --> 01:20:16.560
you know, you need vote, you need IDs for very

1479
01:20:16.800 --> 01:20:21.720
everything else in your life. But somehow blacks and Hispanics

1480
01:20:22.600 --> 01:20:25.319
in the United States are going to be discriminated against.

1481
01:20:26.319 --> 01:20:31.399
Are Hispanics in Mexico discriminated against because they require government

1482
01:20:31.439 --> 01:20:35.760
issued photo IDs? You know, in Mexico after the nineteen

1483
01:20:35.840 --> 01:20:41.560
ninety one voter reform there required government issued photo IDs

1484
01:20:41.680 --> 01:20:47.399
as well as a thumbprint, banned absentee ballots completely at

1485
01:20:47.439 --> 01:20:50.279
that time, made it difficult for people to get the

1486
01:20:50.319 --> 01:20:53.600
IDs because you had to go in person to get

1487
01:20:53.640 --> 01:20:56.159
the ID, and you had to go in person to

1488
01:20:56.159 --> 01:20:59.720
pick it up, and in some places in Mexico you're

1489
01:20:59.720 --> 01:21:02.359
time traveling one hundred miles to be able to go

1490
01:21:02.399 --> 01:21:07.000
and do that. They actually had a huge increase in

1491
01:21:07.119 --> 01:21:11.960
voter turnout in the next presidential election. It went up

1492
01:21:12.399 --> 01:21:14.760
by something like over twenty percentage points.

1493
01:21:14.880 --> 01:21:15.359
Wow.

1494
01:21:16.199 --> 01:21:19.720
And it's because people then became more convinced that their

1495
01:21:19.840 --> 01:21:20.680
votes mattered.

1496
01:21:22.600 --> 01:21:24.279
No, I think that's the bottom line of it all.

1497
01:21:24.640 --> 01:21:26.720
We got to leave it there for now, Doctor John Lott,

1565
01:25:18.600 --> 01:25:24.159
Jeff Camp, the ministry leader and former NFLQB. And mister Jeff,

1566
01:25:24.159 --> 01:25:24.640
how are we doing?

1567
01:25:24.840 --> 01:25:26.279
Thank good? Bell? How are you doing? Ben?

1568
01:25:26.439 --> 01:25:28.720
Hey, I'm doing terrific, absolutely perfect. Man. I gotta tell you,

1569
01:25:28.760 --> 01:25:30.800
I'm excited. You just got back from a dude ranch.

1570
01:25:30.840 --> 01:25:32.720
I mean, you went urban cowboy over the weekend.

1571
01:25:33.079 --> 01:25:36.039
And yeah, I went out to something called Lost Valley

1572
01:25:36.159 --> 01:25:41.560
Ranch in Sedelia, Colorado. But I think for forty years,

1573
01:25:41.720 --> 01:25:46.239
this group of Christian business guys that have a network,

1574
01:25:46.439 --> 01:25:48.960
mostly up in Fort Collins, Colorado, but it was guys

1575
01:25:49.000 --> 01:25:52.039
from all over the country. They've been having this retreat

1576
01:25:52.600 --> 01:25:55.479
and I usually go and speak at retreat, and lots

1577
01:25:55.479 --> 01:25:58.039
of times I'm the only speaker and I might speak

1578
01:25:58.079 --> 01:26:00.279
four times, and I want to archie you the guy's getting.

1579
01:26:00.039 --> 01:26:00.439
Tired of me?

1580
01:26:00.520 --> 01:26:04.399
Is that too much content? But they had three speakers

1581
01:26:05.279 --> 01:26:08.079
and a guy tell his life story, and each of

1582
01:26:08.119 --> 01:26:10.800
us speakers spoke two or three times. So these guys

1583
01:26:10.840 --> 01:26:17.439
got loaded up with the Bible, practical application, theology, the

1584
01:26:17.479 --> 01:26:19.840
worldview that we live for eternity. You know that there's

1585
01:26:19.840 --> 01:26:23.560
a much bigger experience that God has brought us into.

1586
01:26:24.359 --> 01:26:26.640
And I got to do a deep dive training with

1587
01:26:27.000 --> 01:26:31.279
some of their younger leaders on how crucial friendship is

1588
01:26:31.319 --> 01:26:33.079
to leaders and how do you build it when you're

1589
01:26:33.079 --> 01:26:37.159
not sure if other people will be confidential or will

1590
01:26:37.279 --> 01:26:40.640
continue being deep and open and honest when you put

1591
01:26:40.680 --> 01:26:43.920
yourself out there. And they were hungry soaked it up.

1592
01:26:44.479 --> 01:26:46.279
They taught me some good things because they asked some

1593
01:26:46.279 --> 01:26:48.600
tough questions. I thought, oh, I'm going to improve some

1594
01:26:48.640 --> 01:26:53.119
of my preaching principles for friendship because they've raised some things.

1595
01:26:53.159 --> 01:26:54.840
So I'm blessed. It was fun.

1596
01:26:54.880 --> 01:26:57.760
We also had seven inches of snow Friday Bill, so

1597
01:26:58.000 --> 01:26:59.760
we took a big long walk in the snow.

1598
01:27:00.439 --> 01:27:03.279
Oh good, fine, huh. So, so tell me what was

1599
01:27:03.279 --> 01:27:06.159
your number one takeaway the most important thing you got?

1600
01:27:06.239 --> 01:27:07.159
You got from this event.

1601
01:27:07.720 --> 01:27:12.680
The most important takeaway was this one quote that Wayne

1602
01:27:12.680 --> 01:27:19.239
Weissman received from his mentor. And I'm going to give

1603
01:27:19.239 --> 01:27:21.039
it to you in a minute, but I could see

1604
01:27:21.079 --> 01:27:25.920
that it was indelibly marked on this Bible teacher, Wayne

1605
01:27:25.920 --> 01:27:30.880
Weissman's life, because we were doing a panel discussion Wayne,

1606
01:27:30.920 --> 01:27:34.720
who is very biblically knowledgeable his whole lifetime teaching Ken

1607
01:27:34.760 --> 01:27:39.399
Boa the same way as a Bible study teacher, author, speaker,

1608
01:27:40.239 --> 01:27:43.279
and myself, who was kind of like the put the

1609
01:27:43.359 --> 01:27:46.840
Christian stuff into practice with the you know, metaphors and

1610
01:27:46.880 --> 01:27:49.520
stuff like I used from football. And we were answering

1611
01:27:49.600 --> 01:27:52.159
questions and Ken and I had answered a few, and

1612
01:27:52.199 --> 01:27:55.359
then we pointed to Wayne and said, why don't you

1613
01:27:55.439 --> 01:27:58.000
answer this? And he looked at the audience and the men,

1614
01:27:58.079 --> 01:28:02.800
and he said, I'm not good at this. I'm not

1615
01:28:02.840 --> 01:28:06.159
good at just answering questions off the cuff. And yet

1616
01:28:06.239 --> 01:28:10.640
you knew he was brilliant at explaining you know, God

1617
01:28:10.840 --> 01:28:14.880
and theology and Christianity and the Bible, and he'd been

1618
01:28:14.920 --> 01:28:17.840
doing it and so we're all like surprised that this

1619
01:28:18.479 --> 01:28:22.479
guy who's very articulate and clear and intelligent and can

1620
01:28:22.720 --> 01:28:26.960
explain the Bible very well, and he says, I'm not

1621
01:28:27.000 --> 01:28:29.800
good at this, just off the cuff question answering. And

1622
01:28:30.439 --> 01:28:34.199
it struck me how humble and honest and secure he

1623
01:28:34.399 --> 01:28:37.000
was to say that in front of us.

1624
01:28:37.039 --> 01:28:41.159
All right, yeah, exactly right, and humility.

1625
01:28:40.720 --> 01:28:44.199
Is actually more appealing than some sort of arrogant confidence.

1626
01:28:45.000 --> 01:28:48.880
Here's the quote that his mentor gave him. This was

1627
01:28:48.920 --> 01:28:54.319
my big takeaway. He said, you can't do it. God

1628
01:28:54.439 --> 01:29:01.159
never said you can. God can, and he always said

1629
01:29:01.159 --> 01:29:05.760
he would. You can't do it. God never said you can.

1630
01:29:06.760 --> 01:29:11.680
God can and he always said he would. And it

1631
01:29:11.720 --> 01:29:16.159
basically just spoke to the truth that we were made

1632
01:29:16.239 --> 01:29:20.600
to live in relationship with God, with him being the

1633
01:29:20.640 --> 01:29:25.359
source of a exactly the direction we go, and be

1634
01:29:26.159 --> 01:29:29.439
the power to go that way, right right. That's why

1635
01:29:29.520 --> 01:29:32.640
Jesus even prayed, not my will, but thy will be done,

1636
01:29:33.000 --> 01:29:36.760
and then the credit will go to God and we

1637
01:29:36.800 --> 01:29:39.199
won't get off track and think, oh, I did this

1638
01:29:39.199 --> 01:29:39.720
pretty well.

1639
01:29:39.720 --> 01:29:39.880
You know.

1640
01:29:39.920 --> 01:29:42.399
I bade the Ten commandments, I gave some of my

1641
01:29:42.479 --> 01:29:46.760
money to the church, I stopped cussing. I'm really yeah,

1642
01:29:46.800 --> 01:29:49.520
you may have stopped cussing, but your thoughts in your

1643
01:29:49.520 --> 01:29:54.399
heart are still kind of negative towards people. So that's

1644
01:29:54.439 --> 01:29:57.000
what I took away. You can't do it. God never

1645
01:29:57.079 --> 01:30:00.920
said you can. God can't, and he always said he

1646
01:30:00.960 --> 01:30:03.960
would and he will. So for me, it was just

1647
01:30:04.199 --> 01:30:08.359
a total life of dependence. It's not an unconfident life.

1648
01:30:08.399 --> 01:30:12.439
It's actually a God confident life instead of confident life, right,

1649
01:30:12.479 --> 01:30:14.479
God confidence versus you confidence.

1650
01:30:15.119 --> 01:30:17.520
And it's interesting should bring that up because last week

1651
01:30:18.600 --> 01:30:22.239
I was studying on Colossians three. It came up. You know,

1652
01:30:22.399 --> 01:30:25.159
the spirit had led me to this, and it's consistent

1653
01:30:25.159 --> 01:30:26.920
with the things that God's been showing me lately. And

1654
01:30:27.000 --> 01:30:29.039
we talked a little bit about this last week in

1655
01:30:29.159 --> 01:30:31.960
terms of letting go of ourselves and reaching out for

1656
01:30:32.039 --> 01:30:34.880
the higher things. Claus Is three one says, if you

1657
01:30:35.600 --> 01:30:37.960
then have been raised with Christ, seek the things that

1658
01:30:38.039 --> 01:30:40.079
are above, where Christ is seated at the right hand

1659
01:30:40.119 --> 01:30:42.319
of God. Set your minds on things that are above,

1660
01:30:42.640 --> 01:30:44.920
not on things that are on the earth. Like what

1661
01:30:44.960 --> 01:30:47.239
you're saying, we have those temporal things that we want

1662
01:30:47.279 --> 01:30:50.560
to gravitate to because we're surrounded and influenced by the world,

1663
01:30:50.600 --> 01:30:54.119
you know, all the influencers and things that look good

1664
01:30:54.119 --> 01:30:57.039
and inviting, but those are temporal. That's all going to

1665
01:30:57.119 --> 01:31:01.439
rust and go away. And Paul saying, hey, he's come

1666
01:31:01.479 --> 01:31:04.800
to the realization himself, having gone through the process and

1667
01:31:04.840 --> 01:31:07.720
now encouraging others saying, hey, that stuff is garbage, man,

1668
01:31:07.960 --> 01:31:10.119
And just like you're saying, is that we need to

1669
01:31:10.239 --> 01:31:14.359
let go of those things because those things are what

1670
01:31:14.479 --> 01:31:18.840
hold us down on this mortal plane and want to

1671
01:31:18.880 --> 01:31:21.560
be reaching for the heavenly things like you're saying, Jeff,

1672
01:31:21.920 --> 01:31:24.199
and you can't do it. You know, it's like that,

1673
01:31:25.399 --> 01:31:27.640
you know that symbol of the of the monkey, how

1674
01:31:27.640 --> 01:31:29.399
they catch monkeys. You know, he gets a nut in

1675
01:31:29.439 --> 01:31:31.239
the jar and he's got his foot and he will

1676
01:31:31.239 --> 01:31:32.880
not let go of that nut, and he's dragging that

1677
01:31:33.000 --> 01:31:36.439
jar around with him. Well, and we're somewhat metaphorically the

1678
01:31:36.479 --> 01:31:39.239
same deal. We hang on to that nut that's holding

1679
01:31:39.319 --> 01:31:41.760
us down, dragging the jar around, and tells somebody said,

1680
01:31:41.760 --> 01:31:43.279
why are you dragging that jar around? Well, I got

1681
01:31:43.319 --> 01:31:46.359
I'm gonna get it, you know, no coming out, and

1682
01:31:46.399 --> 01:31:48.800
so it's dragging you and holding you back, right.

1683
01:31:49.119 --> 01:31:51.800
That's funny. My wife and I used to tell that

1684
01:31:52.039 --> 01:31:58.079
story to children high schoolers whenever we would speak. We've

1685
01:31:58.159 --> 01:32:01.159
told it to adults as well. But I think that

1686
01:32:01.399 --> 01:32:07.520
there really literally was a tribe of Indians that caught

1687
01:32:07.600 --> 01:32:11.560
monkeys live by hollowing out a coconut or something. You know,

1688
01:32:11.680 --> 01:32:14.359
you mentioned a jar, some sort of container that hare

1689
01:32:14.359 --> 01:32:17.399
a small hole, and they put nuts or candy or

1690
01:32:17.399 --> 01:32:18.039
something in it.

1691
01:32:18.159 --> 01:32:19.439
Obviously they would probably put.

1692
01:32:19.399 --> 01:32:22.439
Nuts, and then there wastached to a string or a rope,

1693
01:32:23.119 --> 01:32:25.720
and the monkeys would come out of the trees and

1694
01:32:25.800 --> 01:32:32.800
put their unclenched fist into the coconut clench and make

1695
01:32:32.840 --> 01:32:36.880
a fist with the nuts. And then their fist was

1696
01:32:36.920 --> 01:32:39.760
so big it couldn't come out of the hole. And

1697
01:32:39.800 --> 01:32:42.359
then they would just reel that monkey in with the string.

1698
01:32:42.760 --> 01:32:45.399
But the whole, you know, sense of they would be

1699
01:32:45.520 --> 01:32:47.520
the monkey would be free if they would just let

1700
01:32:47.520 --> 01:32:50.600
go right and make their fists the thin hand.

1701
01:32:50.640 --> 01:32:51.880
Again, that's us.

1702
01:32:52.560 --> 01:32:57.199
We grab on to the things of earth which are temporary,

1703
01:32:57.520 --> 01:33:00.720
and Jesus made it so clear these things fade away,

1704
01:33:00.840 --> 01:33:06.119
you know, the turns brown, the flowers wilt, it's a

1705
01:33:06.199 --> 01:33:07.920
passing experience.

1706
01:33:08.479 --> 01:33:09.479
Ecclesiastes.

1707
01:33:09.960 --> 01:33:12.079
You know there's a time for everything in this world

1708
01:33:12.159 --> 01:33:16.640
is vanity anything that's lived under the sun. Meaning I'm

1709
01:33:16.640 --> 01:33:21.600
trying to get my experience experiential joy, satisfaction, happiness here

1710
01:33:21.680 --> 01:33:26.039
in the now versus in my heart with the Lord

1711
01:33:26.560 --> 01:33:29.760
in his kingdom and forever and ever when he recreates

1712
01:33:29.800 --> 01:33:34.319
the earth and the heavens that's above the sun. So, Bill,

1713
01:33:34.359 --> 01:33:37.119
that was very I think fun that you brought up

1714
01:33:37.159 --> 01:33:41.279
that story. And the question for each person today is

1715
01:33:42.279 --> 01:33:46.479
where am I sticking my hand into this world's coconut

1716
01:33:46.720 --> 01:33:53.239
and grabbing on to its little prizes, reputation, popularity, how

1717
01:33:53.359 --> 01:33:56.840
people think of me on Facebook or Instagram? How much

1718
01:33:57.119 --> 01:33:59.720
money can I put in the bank, or can we

1719
01:33:59.720 --> 01:34:03.239
get that extra car or clothing?

1720
01:34:03.319 --> 01:34:05.279
Or am I impressing people? Whatever?

1721
01:34:05.359 --> 01:34:07.960
Did the prize is for you?

1722
01:34:07.960 --> 01:34:08.239
You know?

1723
01:34:09.279 --> 01:34:11.920
Where am I hold on to that and holding on

1724
01:34:11.960 --> 01:34:15.560
to the short term life, to the detriment of my

1725
01:34:15.680 --> 01:34:20.319
experiencing the peace of Christ, the relationship with Christ, the

1726
01:34:20.399 --> 01:34:25.399
presence of the Holy Spirit in my life, the precursors

1727
01:34:25.399 --> 01:34:29.479
and first tastes, the appetizer, so to speak, of heaven

1728
01:34:30.520 --> 01:34:32.199
and that verse. I want to read that verse that

1729
01:34:32.239 --> 01:34:35.359
you brought up in the new living. It says, since

1730
01:34:35.399 --> 01:34:38.960
you've been raised to new life with Christ, set your

1731
01:34:39.000 --> 01:34:43.520
sights on the realities of heaven where Jesus Christ sits

1732
01:34:43.520 --> 01:34:46.399
in the place of honor at God's right hand. And

1733
01:34:46.439 --> 01:34:49.960
that says, think about the things of Heaven, not the

1734
01:34:49.960 --> 01:34:50.640
things of earth.

1735
01:34:52.399 --> 01:34:55.359
Powerful C. S.

1736
01:34:55.439 --> 01:34:58.560
Lewis said, if you aim at heaven, you get earth

1737
01:34:58.720 --> 01:35:02.239
thrown in aim at earth, you don't even do well

1738
01:35:02.239 --> 01:35:05.279
on Earth because there's never satisfaction and you miss Heaven

1739
01:35:05.319 --> 01:35:05.720
as well.

1740
01:35:06.119 --> 01:35:06.960
Yeah, there it is.

1741
01:35:07.319 --> 01:35:07.479
Well.

01:40:30.000 --> 01:40:33.479
Hoping we're past all the boomerang, now but we'll, see we'll.

1840
01:40:33.520 --> 01:40:36.399
See but the, idea you, say newly minted and they're

1841
01:40:36.439 --> 01:40:39.920
still young, adults says that they could boomerang, back you,

1842
01:40:39.960 --> 01:40:42.560
know BUT i don't. Know maybe you And scott have

1843
01:40:42.640 --> 01:40:45.640
changed the locks on the. DOOR i don't, know but, no.

1844
01:40:45.640 --> 01:40:47.439
But we have moved out of, state so it's made

1845
01:40:47.479 --> 01:40:48.520
it considerably more.

1846
01:40:48.520 --> 01:40:51.640
Tricky so it's a little bit harder for. Them, oh

1847
01:40:51.680 --> 01:40:53.720
you gotta love. IT i, know it's so hard to

1848
01:40:53.720 --> 01:40:55.359
get them out OF i, Mean i'll tell most of

1849
01:40:55.399 --> 01:40:57.800
my kids that were easy to get the. Nest the youngest,

1850
01:40:57.800 --> 01:41:00.359
one for whatever, REASON i don't, know he JUST i,

1851
01:41:00.439 --> 01:41:02.680
keep you, know shoving him out of the nasty keeps flying.

1852
01:41:02.720 --> 01:41:04.239
Back it's.

1853
01:41:04.399 --> 01:41:07.720
Real it's. Real researchers have now coined a term adult

1854
01:41:07.880 --> 01:41:11.359
lescence because there's so many adults now who still act

1855
01:41:11.399 --> 01:41:14.880
like adolescents and just aren't quite quite pushing out of the.

1856
01:41:14.920 --> 01:41:17.159
Nest and it's a real. THING i, mean that could

1857
01:41:17.159 --> 01:41:19.880
also be a whole. Conversation there's a lot with, that

1858
01:41:20.039 --> 01:41:21.439
with kids not flying the.

1859
01:41:21.479 --> 01:41:24.159
Coop, Well, nina you sent me a note said that

1860
01:41:24.239 --> 01:41:29.239
you And scott spoke at a counselor's breakfast and part

1861
01:41:29.279 --> 01:41:32.920
of your presentation centered on the importance of premarital work for,

1862
01:41:33.079 --> 01:41:35.199
couples especially those heading into blended.

1863
01:41:35.199 --> 01:41:37.479
Families, Right, yes that's.

1864
01:41:37.520 --> 01:41:40.319
True we've been kind of harping on this lately because

1865
01:41:40.359 --> 01:41:43.159
the stats around it were so alarming to. Us we

1866
01:41:43.640 --> 01:41:50.079
know premarital counseling coaching, Works, yeah that's. Clear it lowers

1867
01:41:50.159 --> 01:41:52.840
the annual rate of divorce by about thirty one, percent

1868
01:41:53.399 --> 01:41:58.119
increase relationship satisfaction up to thirty. Percent and most people

1869
01:41:58.159 --> 01:42:01.840
are going to a church or religious organization for their primoral.

1870
01:42:02.239 --> 01:42:05.760
Coaching so for me working in a ministry here At,

1871
01:42:05.760 --> 01:42:09.279
focus but also with step family, work that's all centered

1872
01:42:09.319 --> 01:42:12.159
around a religious. Organization but what was startling to me

1873
01:42:12.840 --> 01:42:15.920
is that when there's a step, couple you could call

1874
01:42:15.960 --> 01:42:19.359
it someone who's heading into a blended, family about seventy

1875
01:42:19.560 --> 01:42:23.640
five percent of those couples don't get any premarital support at.

1876
01:42:23.640 --> 01:42:27.439
All and that really struck. Me AND i can see

1877
01:42:27.479 --> 01:42:29.880
why maybe some people, thinking you, know first you get

1878
01:42:29.880 --> 01:42:32.800
the rose colored, glasses you're so thankful for the second

1879
01:42:32.920 --> 01:42:35.760
chance at a godly, marriage whatever it might. Be but

1880
01:42:35.840 --> 01:42:39.159
also just this idea of, Well i've been married, before

1881
01:42:39.279 --> 01:42:42.119
we know what we're doing. Well, yeah but you haven't

1882
01:42:42.159 --> 01:42:45.119
stepped right into insta family, before so there's a lot

1883
01:42:45.119 --> 01:42:47.840
of different layers with becoming a step. Family you really

1884
01:42:47.920 --> 01:42:49.479
need to get some support around.

1885
01:42:49.479 --> 01:42:51.920
That, yeah you got to be in a situation where

1886
01:42:51.920 --> 01:42:55.600
you can ask them, questions make questions you didn't even think, about, right.

1887
01:42:55.560 --> 01:42:59.640
Yes, right and absolutely questions you didn't think about because

1888
01:42:59.640 --> 01:43:01.760
it might take the third party to, say well have

1889
01:43:01.800 --> 01:43:06.079
you considered? This or what happens when you don't know

1890
01:43:06.119 --> 01:43:08.720
how to divide the household chores because now you've both

1891
01:43:08.760 --> 01:43:10.560
been single parents for a few, years you're used to

1892
01:43:10.640 --> 01:43:13.880
both doing. Everything or what if there is you, know

1893
01:43:13.920 --> 01:43:16.279
a spouse that's passed, away and how are you paying

1894
01:43:16.319 --> 01:43:19.600
attention to the children's grief and loss even though you're

1895
01:43:19.640 --> 01:43:23.199
happy about a new, relationship or things like maybe there's

1896
01:43:23.760 --> 01:43:26.520
ex spouses in the. Picture have you thought about how

1897
01:43:26.560 --> 01:43:29.760
that can impact the marital. Relationship it only could take

1898
01:43:29.840 --> 01:43:33.000
one call from someone's ex spouse to change your schedule

1899
01:43:33.079 --> 01:43:36.199
or your, finances and that can wreck your whole. Day

1900
01:43:36.239 --> 01:43:38.520
have you thought about those? Things AND i think too

1901
01:43:38.560 --> 01:43:42.319
many couples are not getting the support on the front

1902
01:43:42.439 --> 01:43:44.479
end to think, about how are we going to navigate

1903
01:43:44.520 --> 01:43:47.479
all those layers once we're really in blended family.

1904
01:43:47.600 --> 01:43:50.560
Life, well and to, me you know that one of

1905
01:43:50.600 --> 01:43:54.000
the toughest things, was you, know, authority you, know could

1906
01:43:54.039 --> 01:43:58.439
the kids respond to authority from the step, Parent and

1907
01:43:58.520 --> 01:44:00.720
that's that's a bit of a challenge as you, ALWAYS i,

1908
01:44:00.760 --> 01:44:03.720
mean just in normal, conditions you, know the kids are

1909
01:44:03.720 --> 01:44:06.840
always trying to divide mom and dad, Anyway but when

1910
01:44:06.880 --> 01:44:09.680
you're in a step, situation it's a little bit easier

1911
01:44:09.680 --> 01:44:11.880
to tip the cows in the prairie a little, bit.

1912
01:44:11.720 --> 01:44:12.880
You know it.

1913
01:44:12.920 --> 01:44:16.239
Is and you're, Right even in the best of, circumstances

1914
01:44:16.319 --> 01:44:18.520
if parents aren't on the same page and they're not,

1915
01:44:18.800 --> 01:44:22.479
unified the kids will play divide and. Conquer but when

1916
01:44:22.520 --> 01:44:25.520
one of those parents is, also, hey that's not my biological,

1917
01:44:25.600 --> 01:44:28.319
parent you have to do even more. Work and we

1918
01:44:28.479 --> 01:44:30.960
love talking with couples about this piece on the front

1919
01:44:31.000 --> 01:44:35.199
end because here the stats are also very. Clear in

1920
01:44:35.239 --> 01:44:37.279
an intact first, marriage a lot of the things that

1921
01:44:37.319 --> 01:44:41.159
can lead to trouble and trauma and divorce are things

1922
01:44:41.199 --> 01:44:44.680
like finances or intimacy or the in. Laws with step,

1923
01:44:44.680 --> 01:44:48.039
families the number one marital stressor is, parenting and so

1924
01:44:48.399 --> 01:44:50.520
you have to talk about these, things and we actually,

1925
01:44:50.600 --> 01:44:53.920
recommend at least at, first to just parent down biological.

1926
01:44:54.000 --> 01:44:58.039
Lines don't try and be a step parent exercising authority

1927
01:44:58.119 --> 01:45:01.439
or giving out consequences to your step. Kids the other

1928
01:45:01.439 --> 01:45:03.960
thing we do is we make a, distinction though between

1929
01:45:04.319 --> 01:45:09.359
consequences behavioral parenting and house, rules so that a step

1930
01:45:09.359 --> 01:45:12.159
parent can step jetly in kind of dip their toe

1931
01:45:12.159 --> 01:45:16.119
in the pool of, parenting so to, speak by enforcing house.

1932
01:45:16.199 --> 01:45:18.119
Rules for, instance it was fine for me to, say

1933
01:45:18.159 --> 01:45:20.520
even to my step, kids, hey just a, reminder this

1934
01:45:20.600 --> 01:45:22.520
is a shoes off. House pop your shoes off when

1935
01:45:22.560 --> 01:45:25.359
you come. In that's. Okay but if one of them

1936
01:45:25.800 --> 01:45:29.359
was back talking or needed a, CONSEQUENCE i would have

1937
01:45:29.479 --> 01:45:32.279
my Husband scott hand that out at least early, on

1938
01:45:32.479 --> 01:45:34.760
SO i could build up some authority in their.

1939
01:45:34.800 --> 01:45:37.199
Minds so you weren't allowed to throw the shoe at the.

1940
01:45:37.279 --> 01:45:39.279
Kid then no shoe.

1941
01:45:39.319 --> 01:45:44.319
Throwing AND i was telling somebody. Else see this Is mexican.

1942
01:45:44.359 --> 01:45:48.199
Families do, that you, know because you know it's telling

1943
01:45:48.199 --> 01:45:51.399
somebody else that you know In mexican, families you know

1944
01:45:51.439 --> 01:45:54.319
the wella the grandma right would look at you when

1945
01:45:54.319 --> 01:45:58.119
you're being goofy and and you got the grandma, look

1946
01:45:58.159 --> 01:46:00.640
and you better straighten, out because if, not she would

1947
01:46:00.640 --> 01:46:02.880
bend over and she would pull off her chunk her

1948
01:46:02.880 --> 01:46:05.439
house slipper okay they call it chunkla and pull off

1949
01:46:05.479 --> 01:46:08.119
her house slipper and throw that at, you you, know

1950
01:46:08.279 --> 01:46:12.920
like a. Harpoon you. Know and, oh they're really. Good

1951
01:46:13.000 --> 01:46:14.920
left handed or right, handed doesn't, matter you, know they

1952
01:46:14.960 --> 01:46:16.960
can they can nail. It and god, forbid they'd be

1953
01:46:17.039 --> 01:46:19.560
rolling tortillas because if they didn't have time to bend

1954
01:46:19.600 --> 01:46:21.279
over and get their, chocolate then it was the rolling

1955
01:46:21.319 --> 01:46:22.000
pin coming your.

1956
01:46:22.000 --> 01:46:24.520
Way look, out LOOKOUT'S i, mean.

1957
01:46:24.439 --> 01:46:27.319
That'll straighten you out real. Quick but, anyway just saying

1958
01:46:27.319 --> 01:46:30.960
that we sidebar Your but, YEAH i think the other

1959
01:46:31.039 --> 01:46:34.279
challenge that you have in step parenting is that the.

1960
01:46:34.319 --> 01:46:36.760
Parent this is the thing That i've, observed is that

1961
01:46:37.359 --> 01:46:42.079
the biological parent has an innate connection and understanding with

1962
01:46:42.159 --> 01:46:46.159
that child because that child is of, them right because

1963
01:46:46.199 --> 01:46:51.239
even with the the biological connection and difference between in normal,

1964
01:46:51.239 --> 01:46:54.119
conditions the mother and the. FATHER i, mean BECAUSE i

1965
01:46:54.159 --> 01:46:56.520
know with us sometimes you, know my wife would say

1966
01:46:57.640 --> 01:47:00.199
why does he do? That AND i go AND i

1967
01:47:00.239 --> 01:47:01.960
could understand it because it was easy because it was

1968
01:47:02.000 --> 01:47:04.000
a me and there were times when he would do

1969
01:47:04.000 --> 01:47:05.880
that angle why does he and she'd look at me,

1970
01:47:06.000 --> 01:47:08.279
like why are you asking that? Question because that was

1971
01:47:08.319 --> 01:47:11.840
of her right and she. Could and now you bring

1972
01:47:11.840 --> 01:47:15.359
in a step situation where you know you don't have

1973
01:47:15.399 --> 01:47:19.720
a biological innate connection and you have to kind of

1974
01:47:19.880 --> 01:47:22.640
unders i, mean really extend a lot of grace and

1975
01:47:22.840 --> 01:47:24.479
pray a lot.

1976
01:47:24.359 --> 01:47:26.000
A lot of, prayer a lot of. Grace and you're,

1977
01:47:26.039 --> 01:47:29.520
right you're essentially learning these new family. Members you don't

1978
01:47:29.640 --> 01:47:32.279
know them the way the biological parent. Does and so

1979
01:47:32.319 --> 01:47:35.399
that's why it's so. Interesting Because i'm a parent coach

1980
01:47:35.399 --> 01:47:37.720
AND i encourage parents be their, parent don't try to

1981
01:47:37.720 --> 01:47:40.039
be their. Friend but in a step, family it is

1982
01:47:40.079 --> 01:47:43.039
a little. Reversed first you have to develop the relationship

1983
01:47:43.079 --> 01:47:47.239
before you earn that authority in their life and the

1984
01:47:47.479 --> 01:47:49.920
position in their world to speak more into their. Life

1985
01:47:50.000 --> 01:47:52.319
so that that's a little bit different and you have

1986
01:47:52.399 --> 01:47:55.000
to be sensitive to. That and that's why we're big

1987
01:47:55.039 --> 01:47:57.439
fans of getting the premarital, support whether it's your church

1988
01:47:57.520 --> 01:48:00.159
or finding a counselor get some help talk about these

1989
01:48:00.199 --> 01:48:03.479
things in. Advance it's gonna bless your relationship down.

1990
01:48:03.279 --> 01:48:05.279
The road well without. Doubt AND i like what you

1991
01:48:05.319 --> 01:48:07.520
said in terms of like house, rules you, know because

1992
01:48:07.720 --> 01:48:11.000
you have a layered, situation, right some of these things

1993
01:48:11.039 --> 01:48:13.760
like house, rules those are you, know those set the,

1994
01:48:13.800 --> 01:48:18.920
boundaries and it's they're not as, offensive you, know or,

1995
01:48:19.000 --> 01:48:22.680
THREATENING i guess there is a better. Word and but you,

1996
01:48:22.720 --> 01:48:24.600
know in order to get to that next, level like you,

1997
01:48:24.640 --> 01:48:28.039
said to get to, trust you build that with the

1998
01:48:28.119 --> 01:48:31.439
exterior right in setting those houses with simple, things you,

1999
01:48:31.439 --> 01:48:35.439
know and like you, said that are just authority markers

2000
01:48:35.880 --> 01:48:39.119
because if the child can respond and, understand maybe some

2001
01:48:39.279 --> 01:48:42.199
might still insist on wearing their, shoes but after a,

2002
01:48:42.199 --> 01:48:44.560
while you, know they, understand, okay everybody else is taking

2003
01:48:44.600 --> 01:48:47.560
their shoes, off and you respect it and they fall in. Line.

2004
01:48:47.600 --> 01:48:50.479
There so all you're doing is looking to move the,

2005
01:48:50.520 --> 01:48:53.399
football so to speak in sports, terms just up the

2006
01:48:53.399 --> 01:48:55.159
field a little bit at a, time just a yard

2007
01:48:55.199 --> 01:48:57.199
at a. Time we're not all of a sudden going

2008
01:48:57.279 --> 01:48:59.680
to be The Brady bunch, here, Right you're.

2009
01:48:59.680 --> 01:49:02.119
Not it's not an instant. Thing and that's ACTUALLY i

2010
01:49:02.159 --> 01:49:06.159
don't even like the idea or analogy behind a blended.

2011
01:49:06.199 --> 01:49:07.800
Family you don't just throw all the family members in

2012
01:49:07.840 --> 01:49:10.479
a blender and it's like whoo while off. Family it

2013
01:49:10.520 --> 01:49:13.840
really takes, time but you're, right a child might be

2014
01:49:13.960 --> 01:49:16.479
more receptive to me just reminding them it's their night

2015
01:49:16.520 --> 01:49:20.199
to unload the dishwasher than handing out a. Consequence and

2016
01:49:20.239 --> 01:49:22.880
so you have to step into those things over time.

2017
01:49:23.279 --> 01:49:27.800
Exactly, now in terms of step, down how long does that?

2018
01:49:27.840 --> 01:49:30.119
TAKE i mean where you begin to get a. Rhythm

2019
01:49:30.199 --> 01:49:33.600
is there a certain amount of you, know semesters that

2020
01:49:33.640 --> 01:49:34.800
you have to go. Through it's.

2021
01:49:34.840 --> 01:49:36.800
SEMESTERS i love. That, yeah if it was a school.

2022
01:49:36.840 --> 01:49:40.119
Calendar so the research shows it's about five to seven

2023
01:49:40.199 --> 01:49:43.600
years for a step family to really gel and everyone

2024
01:49:43.640 --> 01:49:47.039
to really know their role and respect both adults.

2025
01:49:46.560 --> 01:49:46.880
And all of.

2026
01:49:46.880 --> 01:49:49.039
That so it really takes. Time so we often tell

2027
01:49:49.079 --> 01:49:51.720
the couples we work, with don't stress, out play the long.

2028
01:49:51.800 --> 01:49:54.079
Game but you should know going in that in a blended,

2029
01:49:54.079 --> 01:49:55.199
family the honeymoon comes.

2030
01:49:55.279 --> 01:49:56.960
Later the beginning is.

2031
01:49:56.960 --> 01:49:58.199
Laying the hard work of that.

2032
01:49:58.359 --> 01:50:01.760
Foundation, yeah just be thankful it's not forty years out

2033
01:50:01.760 --> 01:50:02.520
in the, desert right?

2034
01:50:03.439 --> 01:50:03.800
Amen?

2035
01:50:06.319 --> 01:50:08.800
Yeah, yeah, right, no but that's that's good to know

2036
01:50:08.880 --> 01:50:11.079
that you know you're in. THIS i, mean this is

2037
01:50:11.399 --> 01:50:13.600
this a five to seven year, project and that seems

2038
01:50:13.600 --> 01:50:16.399
to be. Reasonable you know that that that would take

2039
01:50:16.439 --> 01:50:18.880
some time because you, know building trust IS i, mean

2040
01:50:18.880 --> 01:50:22.159
this is still trust and and you know you think

2041
01:50:22.159 --> 01:50:24.840
about with a blended, FAMILY i, mean how much of

2042
01:50:24.880 --> 01:50:27.279
the kids have to? Trust, okay mom or dad made

2043
01:50:27.319 --> 01:50:29.800
a decision, here and they're bringing this stranger into the,

2044
01:50:29.840 --> 01:50:33.039
house and now you know it's gonna be my mom

2045
01:50:33.119 --> 01:50:35.319
or my dad or how DO i relate to? Them?

2046
01:50:35.399 --> 01:50:37.560
Right that's WHY i brought up.

2047
01:50:37.640 --> 01:50:40.640
YOU i, mean You've i'm nodding BECAUSE i said earlier

2048
01:50:40.640 --> 01:50:44.199
about their, loss and that's exactly. It that's part of

2049
01:50:44.239 --> 01:50:47.039
why it takes. Time they didn't ask for any of,

2050
01:50:47.079 --> 01:50:49.920
this and so they need some time to get on

2051
01:50:49.960 --> 01:50:53.640
the bus and that that is really a. Process and

2052
01:50:53.640 --> 01:50:57.479
that's why playing the long game. Matters parents and stepparents

2053
01:50:57.520 --> 01:51:00.159

blended families are actually a beautiful picture of The. Gospel

2057
01:51:09.159 --> 01:51:11.520
all blended families are born out of. Loss there's been a,

2058
01:51:11.560 --> 01:51:14.560
divorce or a, death or a relationship that didn't go the.

2059
01:51:14.600 --> 01:51:18.720
Distance and look What god can do in bringing a family.
