- 00:00
- And then as far as the lone bulwark thing, you know, the voting blocks are not a bulwark. I think this is just a matter of just refusing to allow the context to dictate what you're talking about.
- 00:11
- It would be like, I said this on Twitter today, I said, it would be like, you know, you've got a group of shock troopers or, you know, just troopers that are like well into enemy territory, right?
- 00:26
- And they get surrounded by the enemy and they're there and they're like commandos and they were dropped in there.
- 00:32
- And now now they're like surrounded and like they're going to die. Like they're going to they've got no hope of escape.
- 00:38
- Right. And they say, oh, and one of them says, hey, hey, hey, I remember seeing a radio over there from one of our fallen comrades.
- 00:46
- Our only hope of salvation is to get to that radio to let our our guys know where we're at and then they can come save us.
- 00:55
- And then somebody goes to him and they get all furious and an argument starts because they say, what do you mean that's our hope for salvation?
- 01:02
- That's not our only hope for salvation. Salvation is only found in the Lord. And you look at him like.
- 01:10
- Are you are you freaking insane, dude? Like, I'm not talking about that.
- 01:16
- Of course, Jesus is our salvation. We get it. I've got a situation here. Like, my goodness, like, why are you lawyering me to death?
- 01:27
- I just don't get it. I just don't get it. It's like. In our country, we vote, unfortunately.
- 01:35
- Yeah, I hate democracy. I'm just going to come out and say it. I hate it. In our country, we vote and and, you know, we get to decide who to put in charge.
- 01:46
- And we've got our our agendas and, you know, they have to cater to our agendas in order to get our vote and stuff like that.
- 01:52
- And and so in our society, one of the ways we decide what kind of evil gets restrained is through voting.
- 02:01
- And so when somebody says, you know, this voting bloc, which has historically voted so well, is the lone bulwark.
- 02:09
- We're not talking about ultimate salvation, ultimate regeneration, ultimate moral foundations.
- 02:19
- We're talking about the situation that we're in. We're in a situation here. So so so so I just don't understand, like, the complete refusal to allow
- 02:29
- Stephen to define his own context. You can still disagree if you want to. I don't care about the tweet.
- 02:35
- I don't even know if I would have said it. But again, it just didn't even I saw it and that was it.
- 02:41
- I moved on and I didn't think to myself, what about me? I'm also doing stuff. I'm a Latino evangelical.
- 02:48
- I vote the right way, too. I mean, what? Stephen just forgot about me. It's like like we don't have to all get credit for everything.
- 02:56
- You know what I mean? Like I people question the wisdom of the tweet. You know, well, he's got too much pride.
- 03:01
- He wants credit for everything. Maybe there's a criticism there. I don't know. Maybe there's a criticism there.
- 03:07
- I don't care who gets the credit. We're in a situation here. That'd be like the same group of commandos.
- 03:13
- He's like, you know, Ernesto over there goes to get our Patrick. It's like, I'll go get the the radio.
- 03:20
- I'll go get the radio. And and then Ernesto is like, oh, you think we need a white savior?
- 03:27
- Dude, let him get the radio. We're in a situation here. Anyway, this video has gone way longer than I thought.
- 03:35
- I thought this would be a 20 minute video. I was foolish. And here we are at 50 minutes. I hope you found this video helpful.
- 03:42
- Once again, let me just I love the guy. Dr. White is just a blessing to so many people and to the church in general.
- 03:50
- And I am so grateful for him. I'm grateful for you. No, I'm serious. I really am.
- 03:56
- And so that's it. That's all I want to say. And I think that's probably the last thing
- 04:02
- I'll say about it for right now. Hope you found this video, this podcast helpful. God bless. Don't forget to tune in next week on Thursday for AD on the
