-
Lift your bibles up, wave them around, make Jesus glad and the devil mad.
-
Let's say this together say heavenly Father, I'm so glad to be here today.
-
I wouldn't be anywhere else.
-
I'm here to celebrate my covenant with you, and the only way I can fully celebrate is have Bible knowledge of what it entails.
-
I believe I've received today information that will change my life, feed my spirit, nourish my faith, so that I can accomplish what I'm supposed to in Jesus' name, amen.
-
Let's turn in our Bibles to Luke 19, please, and we'll read what it says about Palm Sunday.
-
This particular, in Luke, it doesn't talk about palms, but other gospels.
-
In fact, this testimony is in all four gospels, and so we're just.
-
I chose Luke 19 for a couple of reasons.
-
Let's just look at that.
-
Verse 29, luke 19, 29.
-
And it came to pass.
-
When he was come.
-
Jesus was come nigh to Beth Fage and Bethany, at the Mount called the Mount of Olives.
-
He sent two of his disciples saying go, ye, into the village over against you, in the which, at your entering, you shall find a cult tied, whereon yet never men sat.
-
Loose him and bring him hither.
-
And if any man asked you, why do you loose him?
-
Thus shall you say unto him because the Lord hath need of him.
-
And they that were sent went their way and found, even as he had said unto them, and as they were loosing the cult, the owners there have said unto them, why loose ye the cult?
-
And they said the Lord hath need of him.
-
And they brought him to Jesus and they cast their garments upon the cult and they set Jesus thereon and as he went they spread their clothes in the way Other gospels say palms, branches.
-
And when he was come nigh, even now, at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen, saying blessed be the King that cometh.
-
In the name of the Lord, peace in heaven and glory in the highest.
-
And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him master, rebuke thy disciples.
-
And he answered and said unto them I tell you that if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.
-
And when he was come nigh, he beheld the city, jerusalem.
-
He beheld the city and wept over it, saying if thou hath known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace, but now they are hid from thine eyes.
-
For the day shall come upon you that your enemies shall cast a trench about you and compass you around and keep thee in on every side and shall lay thee even with the ground and thy children within thee, and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another, because you knew not the time of your visitation.
-
And he went into the temple and began to cast out them that sold therein and them that bought, saying unto them it is written my house is the house of prayer, but you have made it a den of thieves.
-
And so today I wanted to share a message entitled what about America?
-
What about America?
-
What about America?
-
You know it's been a year ago that you know.
-
It was actually this past Wednesday night, before Palm Sunday, that I announced that we were gonna have church in violation of the law, and we had joined a lawsuit, but the lawsuit had not been adjudicated.
-
So, as far as I knew, it looked like Palm Sunday when we said we were gonna be here at the church looked like it was gonna be in violation of the law.
-
I didn't wanna put any of you at risk, but I just I didn't have a visitation, I just knew by the witness how strong it was that we were not to be closed any longer.
-
We closed 15 days.
-
We gave our president.
-
He asked for 15 days.
-
We gave it to him.
-
I wasn't gonna do that.
-
Remember how many of you remember how many of you know what I'm gonna do the 15 days.
-
And then some of you thought, well, pastor, you're changing your mind.
-
Well, the Holy Ghost dealt with me and well, you know you pray for the president.
-
Why don't you give him 15 days?
-
You can give him 15 days.
-
I said, okay, we will.
-
So I had to preach that Wednesday, a couple weeks before that, and tell you online that we were gonna indeed dismiss services as we know them.
-
But then, once the 15 days were up and I looked out front join us for Easter services, I wept on that Monday and I went back and I consulted with the staff.
-
I said we are going to have church.
-
I don't care what they wanna arrest.
-
They'll arrest if they wanna give us a ticket or they wanna find us.
-
You know, frankly, I didn't think they'd have the guts to arrest us, but I didn't know that.
-
And so then we heard about a lawsuit, and by before I mean before the end of the week the governor.
-
We changed the lawsuit from the county judge and the.
-
You know that we sued.
-
First of all we sued the county judge and then we got legal advice and so we elevated, changed courts and went to right directly to the Texas Supreme Court and we sued the governor and the attorney general.
-
And I mean, when they saw the lawsuit, they changed and we became suddenly important and essential.
-
We went from non-essential to essential.
-
The directives went to suggestions and let us know that we were totally in charge of whatever happened in our doors.
-
They couldn't tell us how to conduct services.
-
How many of you remember that?
-
It's been a year Just think about what's happened in a year and 2020 is a year that will live in infamy, because most people, when you ask them about how 2020, I say worst year of my life and it has been a terrible year for lots and lots of people.
-
But God gave us a different word.
-
He said this is gonna be the greatest year.
-
Yet we had a completely opposite perspective.
-
Remember those three words perspective, power, prominence.
-
Well, you know, the news media got wind of our lawsuit.
-
They showed up out in the parking lot.
-
And they were not, you know, complimentary.
-
Facebook wasn't complimentary.
-
We had a lot of boo birds, bad letters, phone call threatening death.
-
But you know what?
-
God liked it, god approved of it.
-
Are you with me now?
-
And so, from this place, a cry rose up we will not bow to having our freedom stolen.
-
And it went all over the country, so much so that the New York Post wrote an article called James and I.
-
You know renegade pastors.
-
Well, that's a lot nicer word than people have called me.
-
I mean, I've been called hearts.
-
You gotta have thick skins and tender hearts in these days.
-
And so now it's one year later.
-
This is Palm Sunday.
-
This is Passover.
-
Our forefathers.
-
You know the white supremacists, the ones who instituted.
-
You know all of these terrible things.
-
They've been lied about and slandered like you can't believe.
-
I mean, we're watching the reordering of our history.
-
This is what they did in Cuba.
-
This is what they did in China.
-
This is what they did in Russia.
-
This is what every communist regime does.
-
It has to change the history, it has to come against any, and that's why they tear down all the monuments.
-
This is all easily seen.
-
What's going on?
-
We're in the middle of an attempt of a communist takeover of our nation, and not just our nation, the entire world.
-
It's just going all around the world.
-
This whole COVID thing.
-
I'm not denying COVID, okay.
-
I'm not denying the virus.
-
I'm denying the fact of how they chose to use it to steal our freedoms and to get the population filled with panic and fear.
-
Are you with me now?
-
But our founders really identified with Israel's deliverance from Egypt.
-
I mean, that's exactly what the pilgrims felt and that's what the writers of the constitution and the bill of rights.
-
They had the same thinking.
-
And we have a constitution and a bill of rights that I know was authored by the Holy Ghost.
-
Don't let anybody tell you different.
-
I mean, these men had prayer meetings, they had prophetic words, they listened to God the best they could.
-
This is a Christian nation.
-
Everywhere except here in America, in the Middle East, we're known as the Sunday people.
-
The Jews are known as the Saturday people and they say first comes Saturday and then comes Sunday.
-
You know they wanna kill us why?
-
Because they wanna do Jihad.
-
They want worldwide domination.
-
So they've got that in common with the communists, but they don't have anything else in common with it.
-
So we're only 245 years old.
-
I thought about Israel.
-
God took 1500 years before he really the word basically was fulfilled.
-
That was in the Bible about what they had to do.
-
And he you know the Lord is slow to anger and of great mercy.
-
He held with Israel for 1500 years before they, finally, before Jesus, got there and said you know what?
-
This city is gonna get leveled, this temple is not gonna stand.
-
In 60 AD, his prophecy came to pass A million Jews died.
-
Do you think that made God glad?
-
Do you think God killed him?
-
No, god didn't kill him.
-
They moved out from under God's care and blessing and worshiped the gods of that world then.
-
And that's exactly what has happened in America.
-
We've imported gods from foreign countries since 1965.
-
Since Ted Kennedy rewrote the immigration For 1920 to 1965, our immigration was nil and before 1920, we had people coming here from Western Europe, mostly People that basically the West that was Christianized.
-
Nowadays, well, it's hard to find a Christian in Europe.
-
And what few there are.
-
They're religious and you have no idea whether they're really born against.
-
It's kind of hard to tell whether somebody's really a Christian.
-
But, yeah, america does need to repent.
-
There's been a lot of blood shed these children.
-
You know, babies, there's a lot of idolatry, there's a lot of false religion here.
-
Yeah, god's not happy.
-
But what about America?
-
And I read some of the comments on my Facebook page and I think some people are just ready for God to just drop the hammer.
-
What's gonna become of the rest of the nations of this world If he destroys America?
-
Who's left?
-
Who's left to preach the gospel?
-
I mean, I have a question for you.
-
I don't think God is dumb, I think he's smarter than that.
-
So I'm gonna make a case this morning, a scriptural case, about what about America?
-
So here in the scriptures, jesus is riding as a king on a lowly donkey coat.
-
He said tell him, the Lord has need of him.
-
A donkey, a little donkey coat, not even a full grown donkey, a little one, weak, I mean.
-
I'm sure his legs probably touched the ground on either side of it.
-
Maybe they put enough clothes on top but made him higher, I don't know.
-
Never had been ridden.
-
So I bet that was interesting.
-
Never been ridden.
-
And he came into Jerusalem.
-
That way, as a king, he could have come in a chariot.
-
He could have come in an Arabian stallion, he could have come in in any number of ways that would be conducive to a king.
-
And he came this way to fulfill scripture, to fulfill the prophetic word, and it says that he prophesied doom and destruction over Jerusalem because they had missed the day of their visitation.
-
They had missed the day of their visitation.
-
There's people thinking that America's missed the day of its visitation.
-
I know Brother Hagin had a word in 1950, america is receiving her last call.
-
Well, you know what one day with the Lord is a thousand years?
-
A thousand years is one day.
-
I know it's been a long time ago, 70 years ago, that he had that word about America, but it's just been like an eye blink with God.
-
God, listen, I'm telling you God is not in a hurry.
-
I said God's not in a hurry.
-
And so then, in John chapter two, the version of this story in John chapter two, jesus saw all this going on.
-
He prophesied the doom and gloom and he went and he made a whip out of cords of leather.
-
I mean, he didn't just flash in anger, he was angry long enough to make a whip.
-
And after he made the whip, he went into the temple and he drove out the money changers and the Bible says here in Luke and those that bought from the money changers.
-
Well, what is that all about?
-
Well, it's Passover, for one thing.
-
This is Black Friday.
-
Anybody remember Black Friday?
-
They have to Thanksgiving when everybody fights at Walmart to get the last PlayStation 22.
-
Get the TV for 1995.
-
They have a brawl out there.
-
It's Black Friday.
-
Well, that's kind of what it was.
-
I mean, their business was to sell the animals, these people coming into Jerusalem.
-
They didn't even bother to bring their own animals.
-
They didn't bring their own sacrifice.
-
They went and bought it.
-
They gave money to buy the animals and all of them animals were in the temple.
-
And the money changers.
-
They got their tables and, of course, they up to.
-
I mean, a lamb would normally be 50 cents, now it's $5.
-
They're making a killing selling these animals for all the sacrifices.
-
Where's their reverence?
-
Where's even the reverence of the people buying the sacrifices?
-
Jesus had contempt for all of it.
-
He overturned the table of the money changers.
-
He drove them out with a whip, said this should be the house of prayer for all nations.
-
You've turned it into a den of thieves.
-
In other words, he cleansed the temple.
-
In Matthew 21, 14, it says that then he healed the blind and the lame.
-
See.
-
These are types and shadows of where we're at right now.
-
Many so-called pastors and teachers and ministers, profiting from the lies they're telling writing books, learned how to monetize their live stream while they hide behind the camera.
-
Oh no, we can't go to church.
-
We've got to obey the Romans 13.
-
We've got to obey the king.
-
Well, first of all, we don't have a king.
-
Second of all, our government is of the people, by the people, for the people.
-
And when these goofballs overstep their bounds, we're at the end of our rights to say no, sir, we need to obey God rather than man.
-
You're not breaking any scripture.
-
In fact, you're fulfilling scripture, in my view.
-
But Jesus is still head of the church.
-
He's looking for a few donkeys.
-
Maybe you ain't never been rode, but he wants to ride you into the city with a message that will change people's lives.
-
Don't wait for somebody else to do it.
-
You've got the message.
-
You've got the testimony.
-
You know what Jesus has done for you.
-
Praise God.
-
But what about America?
-
Has it missed the day of visitation?
-
Is it too late?
-
What about America?
-
That's the name of this message.
-
If you want to title, what about America?
-
And I present this to you with scripture.
-
I believe that this is what God is saying right now, and the first thing I want to say is number one God will not destroy America.
-
Does it deserve it?
-
Well, you could make a case.
-
You want to make a case for judgment?
-
Why don't you leave it to the judge?
-
He's the one that knows better.
-
We're looking at everything on the outside.
-
Yeah, it looks bad, but you don't see all the good things that are going on at the same time.
-
What's going on?
-
What's going on?
-
Not everybody is taking a trumpet and blowing it and say cock-a-doodle-doo.
-
Look at me what I'm doing for the Lord.
-
The church is still here.
-
Why would he destroy the ground on which the church is walking?
-
And the donkeys are still moving.
-
Are you with me now?
-
Second Thessalonians 2.7 says that we are the restraining power of the Antichrist.
-
If we're gone, the Antichrist is ruling.
-
Well then, if we're gone, that means we got raptured.
-
Well, if we got raptured today, I'm telling you, god is gonna leave a lot of harvest on the ground.
-
A lot of harvest is ready to be reaped, and then we're not gonna be here to reap it.
-
I hear people say you know, there's gonna be more people saved in the tribulation than there were.
-
Well, you know.
-
Let me just talk about that statement, because there's not gonna be any adding to the church of Jesus Christ during the tribulation.
-
There's gonna be people saved during the tribulation, but they will never be members of the body of Christ.
-
They will never be like you and I, never.
-
They just won't go to hell.
-
They'll have finite bodies.
-
One of these days they'll die, and then they don't get to be new creatures, they don't get to be like us.
-
They don't get to rule in rain with Christ.
-
Let me tell you something you might get saved in the tribulation, but you will be way behind people like us.
-
Praise God.
-
That doesn't give my heart any, but that's no reason not to get as many people saved right now.
-
That's the whole point of harvest.
-
I hear people say well, there's just a remnant.
-
Well, that may be true right now, but there won't be a remnant.
-
God's gonna save billions of people before this is over with.
-
He knows how to bring forth a crop.
-
My trust is in him.
-
He knows how to do it.
-
He has long patience until he received the early in the latter reign.
-
Be patient, therefore, brother.
-
None of the coming of the Lord, why would we have to be patient?
-
Because we've got fools like Biden and other people in the White House.
-
Well, you're calling names.
-
Yeah, I'm calling names.
-
You don't like your children hearing that Cover their ears.
-
I'm sorry, not really.
-
I mean, how can these people make no sense?
-
There's no common sense at all.
-
Well, the people are coming to the border because they think I'm a nice guy.
-
He said that, yeah, that's the reason why millions of people are trying to get to the border, because they think Joe Biden's a nice guy.
-
I think, oh, okay, got you.
-
You know, romans 11-25 says that we're here until the fullness of the Gentiles become in.
-
He said that's when the veil will fall off the Jewish eyes and they're gonna begin to see Jesus.
-
All Israel shall be saved.
-
That's what the Bible said, but it'll be a different.
-
They're not gonna ever be members of the body of Christ.
-
They're gonna be saved in the sense that they won't go to hell.
-
They'll have honor because of the 12 tribes of Israel and they are all of that.
-
But Jesus the type of Joseph being very united with his brothers is gonna happen, and it's gonna happen at the end of the tribulation period.
-
Jesus is gonna reveal himself to his brethren and they're gonna weep, he's gonna be bitter tears and he's gonna comfort them, just like what happened in the book of Genesis when Joseph revealed himself to his brothers.
-
They were ashamed, they were red faced, they were afraid, they thought maybe he was gonna kill them and they walked real softly.
-
That's kind of the way the atmosphere will be.
-
But God's got a plan for Israel.
-
It's different than ours, and so once we live in the time of the Gentiles, where whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved, it's gonna become so much easier to get people saved in the time right ahead of us.
-
Yeah, god's got a plan.
-
We hadn't even gotten started yet.
-
And then, after there's a great harvest and we're all raptured off the face of this earth and taken to heaven, then God will turn his attention to Israel and turn his attention on the Antichrist.
-
We already know how the Antichrist, the false prophet and the devil wind up All right.
-
Number two God is separating the wheat from the tares.
-
Read the parable in Matthew 13, 24 through 30.
-
I'm not gonna read it.
-
Most of you know about it, but Jesus told the parable of the wheat and the tares.
-
The tares look exactly like wheat.
-
I saw a picture of it.
-
It's kind of like wheat without the wheat.
-
It's wheat with a flower, and so the tares are growing in the same soil.
-
They're in the same place.
-
Oh, an enemy has done this.
-
Let's quickly go out and uproot the tares.
-
No, don't do that, les.
-
If you uproot the tares, you uproot the wheat.
-
Wait until the day of harvest.
-
That's where we are right now.
-
Well, we're seeing right now in the church.
-
In the church, everybody say in the church, the tares are being discovered, they're being exposed for what they are fakes.
-
And where are they?
-
They're in the church.
-
Some of them are behind the pulpit.
-
They look good, they've been sounding good, but all of a sudden, god has been pulling see judgment, is pulling back the curtain and revealing what is to our eyes, and that's what's happening right now.
-
He's using this.
-
You know the Democrats are good at using tragedies like that.
-
Well, god can use them too.
-
I submit to you that tares are one reason why the church has been ineffective.
-
They hold the work of the church back, they stop up the works, they hinder, they take of the food that's supposed to be going to the wheat and they absorb it, and they don't give anything back.
-
Jesus talked about that idea to the church of Laodicea and you know Claire's been teaching on the seven churches in Asia Minor that are listed in Revelations two and three, the church at Laodicea.
-
Jesus warned them and said you know, I advise you to buy.
-
You know, I know what your eyes with I say.
-
And buy, you know, buy some oil.
-
You know, try it with fire.
-
I forgot the exact wording, but anyway, he said you know, you're lukewarm.
-
You could say that the tares are lukewarm.
-
Why would I say that?
-
Well, because they've been exposed to the nutrients, they've been exposed to the light, but they're not bearing forth fruit.
-
Are you with me?
-
Now?
-
They're taking up space and they're robbing the church of its power, and so I suggest now, I don't have anybody in mind when I say this.
-
I'm not, I don't have a picture of an individual.
-
I wouldn't do that.
-
I'm not the judge, he's the judge, he's the one that sees hearts.
-
I know, I just know from my Bible that Jesus said he said I would, that you were hot or cold, but then, because you're lukewarm, I will spew you, I will vomit you out of my mouth.
-
Does that ever give you pause when you see that, talk about the tears.
-
And the tears are where?
-
In the bars, in the prisons, in the jail?
-
No, they're in the church.
-
They're attenders.
-
They've never really.
-
They look good, they dress good, they might even smell good, but they're not bringing forth fruit.
-
And so he said I'm gonna spew you, I'm gonna vomit you out of my mouth, but I'll tell you what.
-
The harvest is near and the church is about to rise up.
-
God's got a plan.
-
Listen, let's not give up.
-
Before he's even getting started with what he's gonna do, I'll tell you.
-
We have lukewarm leaders.
-
Let me read to you out of Isaiah 56.
-
Some of these leaders have been shone up for what they are.
-
I'm not gonna use names.
-
It's not even worth the battle.
-
God's gonna fight this battle.
-
God's gonna de-legitimize these people.
-
They're gonna go the way of Balaam.
-
Isaiah 56, 10, verse nine all you beasts of the field, come to devour yea, all you beast in the forest, because the prophet is calling forth carnivores, meat-eaters.
-
Come have a meal.
-
We talked about having a meal this morning that was communion, but this different kind of a meal.
-
Listen to this one.
-
Come on, get ready to devour.
-
His watchmen are blind.
-
They are all ignorant.
-
They are all dumb dogs that cannot bark.
-
Sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.
-
Ooh, pastor, I thought this was gonna be encouragement.
-
It is.
-
I want to give you a place where you can stand your ground and move forward against a tide that is sweeping through.
-
Everywhere we look, everywhere we go, people are believing a lie and you can't afford to fall for that lie.
-
You can't afford to be afraid.
-
You've got to rise up in boldness.
-
You're the little donkey he's riding you.
-
The Lord has need of you.
-
Yeah, they're greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand.
-
They all look to their own way, everyone for his gain from his quarter.
-
Come, you say they, and I will fetch wine, we will fill ourselves with strong drink and tomorrow shall be as this day and much more abundant.
-
They're the ones, and the people that follow them are the ones that Jesus said I'm gonna come as the thief in the night.
-
I'll tell you revival is coming.
-
I said revival is coming.
-
God's not gonna leave the church or this world in the state that we're seeing it right now.
-
Revival is coming, Praise God.
-
I like this definition of revival.
-
See, it's revival for the church and reformation for the world.
-
I mean, you know, let's get our terms correct Revival is for the church.
-
The church must have a revival before it can be able to go out there.
-
Little donkeys out there with an anointing when they speak to the world, but I like this definition of revival the inrush of the spirit into a body that threatens to become a corpse.
-
Well, I tell you what I believe the church is about to have a collective.
-
I believe God is about to get the paddles out and go poop and wake up.
-
Some folks Not everybody that's asleep right now is a reprobate.
-
Some just haven't heard what they need to hear.
-
But I'm telling you, I believe God will have his way and he'll separate the wheat from the tares.
-
Are you with me now?
-
All right, the third thing I'll leave you with is the fields are wide already for harvest.
-
I mean, they're out there.
-
You know, in Exodus, chapter three, when God appeared to Moses in the burning bush, moses had fled.
-
The Bible says when he was about 40 years old.
-
It came into his heart to be the deliverer of Israel and he tried to do it in the flesh.
-
He got angry one day and killed an Egyptian, and somebody saw him and he got afraid and he left and fled to the backside of the desert and kept his father-in-law, jethro sheep.
-
I mean, all he did was talk to sheep all day long.
-
Here's a man of letters, a man of great intellect, a man of great education of that day, and he had reduced himself, he ran from God.
-
You know, the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.
-
And God appeared to him in that burning bush when he's 80, 40 years went by.
-
I'm sure he thought it was all over, I'm sure he thought he had missed the day of his visitation.
-
But you know what?
-
God is not like man, and God is long suffering.
-
He's not willing that any should perish.
-
He's of great mercy.
-
Sometimes we just think God is ready like a trip hammer.
-
He is not.
-
I mean, god was willing to save Solomon Gomorrah If Abraham could just found 10 righteous.
-
And, as it turned out, you know, he just quit praying at 10, he started 50, oh Lord, 50 for 50 righteous.
-
Would you destroy the righteous?
-
Well, no, 50.
-
I'll say well, how about 40?
-
How about 30?
-
How about 20?
-
How about 10?
-
He quit at 10.
-
As it turned out, it was only one lot Boy.
-
You can't say his daughters were righteous, you can't say his wife was righteous.
-
It's turned into a pillar of salt and so Solomon, Gomorrah, but God was willing to spare it for 10 righteous.
-
How much more is there here?
-
I mean, god's not even gotten started.
-
He's not going to destroy America Now.
-
What happens later?
-
I don't know.
-
I'm not here to prophesy that I'm here to talk about right now.
-
He's not through with America.
-
Let's not give up Just because we see bad stuff happening.
-
The fields are wide already with the harvest and God didn't give up on Moses.
-
On Moses, he said Moses, take off your feet, shoes of your feet, place where you stand is holy ground.
-
He said I have heard the cries of my people, I have seen their tears and I know their sorrows and I am come down.
-
I am come down to deliver them from an end, to see it's not enough to just get people delivered from sin, but God's going to get them delivered and bring them into glory to God.
-
We're going to bring the harvest into the barn.
-
Are you with me now?
-
And I do believe in the next while that?
-
The world, because this is global folks, but I'm really talking about America, so I'll leave the global part, but this is a global cabal.
-
They're all linked together.
-
These people, they don't see borders.
-
Are you with me now?
-
But I'm just talking about America right now.
-
After we suffer America I should say after America suffers.
-
How many of you know?
-
There's a difference between the church in America.
-
There's a lot, that's a whole lot, of bad teaching on that too.
-
We have two different covenants.
-
America's got a covenant, like Israel, and that covenant has blessings and curses.
-
We had the blessing for a long time, even even blessed, even when we didn't deserve it.
-
God was so willing because of the church.
-
Now that the church has got the tears Sucking the life out of some of it and the church is so ineffective, the curses are overtaking the nation.
-
But God's not finished with the church either.
-
God's gonna revive the church and he's gonna.
-
He's gonna bring a harvest out of America, but until then, america is just gonna have to suffer under this tyranny, this control.
-
They've sewn to the wind.
-
They reap in the wild wind whirlwind.
-
He's gonna let them suffer why?
-
Well, because sometimes, when people see, just like Israel, they got so fed up with with the slave drivers whip that they began to cry out to the God of their covenant.
-
And there and God.
-
The Bible says God had respect under them.
-
What does that mean?
-
He remembered that he was in covenant with Israel.
-
They began to call and even though they were ignorant, really, of their coven they didn't really have that much knowledge, but he was sensitive to their cry because of his side, his covenant Well, he's got a covenant with America and he's got a covenant with the church.
-
God's not hard to hear in.
-
Sooner or later, people are gonna suffer under this Regime, is what I call it.
-
We can talk about how they got in power all day long.
-
I won't even go there because you know, but the bottom line is God has taken his hand off this nation for a little while.
-
Oh, you want it like that.
-
I'm gonna let you have it like that.
-
You want to be out from under me instead of under me?
-
You want to be one nation out from under God?
-
Okay, because he's not a puppet master and he will let you reap the pain of that, and that's what we've got ahead of us right now.
-
So let's hold the faith.
-
I this is not the word, but it was so powerful.
-
I just wrote a few things down here that a French aristocrat, aristocrat, aristocrat.
-
He started the move at the place where he was, the play the cats.
-
Anyway, the French aristocrat, alex de Tokyoville, tocqueville, alex de Tocqueville, and he wrote in his book.
-
He wrote two books, democracy in America, volume one and two, in 1835 and 1840.
-
Frenchman, he was intrigued with our Constitution, with our democracy, rather our representative republic.
-
It's not a true democracy.
-
A true democracy is is tyranny.
-
It's just.
-
It's just.
-
It's one group ruling over another and you and the minority has no rights.
-
You know, in our Constitution, the minority have a lot of rights and they have a lot of speaking into the, the, the thing by design of our white supremacist forefather.
-
I Say that jokingly, Ridiculous, but anyway.
-
So he, he wrote, and he was here because he was interested in bringing this back to France.
-
I won't go into all that.
-
And and he talked about this power of government and it covers the surface of society like a network of small, complicated rules.
-
Talking about government power, it covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform.
-
Put your mask on Until you get to the table, keep it on until you drink your water and then take it off.
-
Keep it around your neck and in between bites of food.
-
Put it on, take it off, put it on, take it on, take it on, take it off.
-
That's what I think about when I see this.
-
Small, complicated rules.
-
Small, complicated rules.
-
Salt and pepper no, no salt and pepper.
-
Somebody touched that do without Minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd.
-
The will of man is not shattered, but it's softened, it's bent, it's guided.
-
Men are seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting.
-
And such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence.
-
It does not tyrannize, but it compresses, innervates, extinguishes and stupefies of people Till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals of which the government is the shepherd.
-
I Know it's not in the Bible, but it could be.
-
I Believe that guy's profit if anybody was it's that it just looks just like that, doesn't it?
-
He had a couple of other things that he had, a whole bunch of quotes that are good.
-
I picked two more.
-
Citizens chief business is to remain their own masters.
-
The church is going to be its own master.
-
We are not going to let government tell us how to do church.
-
They're not going to tell us that we have to be relegated to the live stream audience or just to the parking lot or any other such nonsense.
-
To neglect the whole, to neglect to hold liberty fast is to allow it to escape.
-
And so what about America?
-
Well, I believe, because God is just getting started.
-
I mean, I believe America's greatest days are right ahead of us.
-
Doesn't look like it?
-
I know that, but let's hold on to who God is and how great he is.
-
I mean, he is not little.
-
He's bigger than the devil, he's bigger than these people, he's bigger than Democrats, bigger than communism, bigger than anybody, and we're in covenant with him.
-
We're in covenant with him, and the Church of Jesus Christ is alive and well.
-
Come on, lift your hands and receive.
-
What about America?
-
What about America?
-
Did anybody get any encouragement today?
-
I Want to put, I want to put steel in your spines.
-
I want you to stand up.
-
Quit looking for other people to make a stand.
-
Let you make a stand.
-
I.
