01:42

People call in. And they have other questions, too, when we talk. So there you go. All right, now, let's see.

01:49

Get that right there. There we go. So yesterday, I do this a lot.

01:57

I go online and just look for opportunities to teach, defend the faith. And we had this discussion.

02:07

And two things I brought up in this discussion. I don't know if I've mentioned it here.

02:14

I think I have, but I'm not sure. So I'm just going to do it again. When I was on my three -week tour of Paul, the footsteps of Paul, Biblelands tour, two interesting things happened.

02:30

One, when I got off the plane, my feet were swollen, and there was a blood vessel in my right eye that had broken.

02:39

And so the next day, I called up my doctor here, and the nurse said, Get into the ER. Make sure it's not a blood clot.

02:46

And everything was fine. And so I got to go into this ER, a Turkish ER, for four hours and ended up talking to some guys.

02:55

And my friend, Cameron, Cameron was with me, and he went to the

03:02

ER to get back to the hotel around, I'm thinking, 430 in the morning, 5 o 'clock in the morning, maybe.

03:08

I don't know. And he was out witnessing to some Turkish guys using a phone with a

03:16

Google translator, and they were doing that for a couple hours. So there you go. Okay, that was one.

03:22

It's not that big a deal. But the other thing is more significant. We were in Greece.

03:31

We went to Thessalonica. You know, where the book Thessalonians is written.

03:36

We also went to Corinth later on and gave a devotional there and in Thessalonica. But something happened to me personally when

03:45

I was in Thessalonica. It's not that big a deal. But we went to an

03:52

Eastern Orthodox church, and I've got the video of it on the inside.

03:58

They're having a service. I walked in along with other people on the tour, and our tour guide who's

04:05

Eastern Orthodox. And as I walk in, and the first thing you see to the left were a place for candles.

04:18

And it was, you did these candle prayer things.

04:25

I don't know too much about them. And then to the left, well, to the right of the candles actually, but to my left as you come in, there was a big painting of,

04:35

I think it was Mary. I'm trying to remember. And to the right was another painting of Mary.

04:41

And you go in past these doors, and you walk in and you see the pomp. This church had a lot of gold and a lot of silver.

04:51

And colors and stuff like this. And people were there for the worship service. And of course

04:57

I couldn't understand anything. It was in Greek. And, but I watched.

05:04

They weren't having a formal service yet. They were getting ready for something, as I understand.

05:10

And I watched as people would bow to the statues, to these icons, these paintings, kiss them, light candles and all this stuff.

05:24

And with that combined with the richness, material richness of the church, really sickened me.

05:35

It appeared to me that instead of the riches of God dwelling in you, they were accustomed to the riches of the church around them.

05:47

And what I interpreted everything as was Satan working in that church, the whole church, he's an

05:56

Orthodox church, with pomp, with lots of money, with icons, statues, candles, pictures, gold and silver, and saying that it connects back to the ancient true church.

06:13

And I saw just deception. I saw deception there. And I wanted to preach to them.

06:21

I don't have the language and God didn't give me tongues, so all I could do was go out after a while and walk out to the courtyard.

06:30

And that's where I gave a devotional. And the tour guide was there, and his

06:37

English was really good, a really nice guy. And so as Jesus says, you leave the flock and go after the one, and leave the 99 back there,

06:48

I catered part of my message to him. And in that message, it was appropriate because it was part of what was going on, was the issue of justification by faith alone in Christ alone.

07:02

That was about three minutes of the devotion, about a 10 -15 minute devotion. And someone took a picture of him.

07:10

He was quite upset, actually, because I was preaching in this devotional.

07:19

Okay, so all of that. Well, what is it that happened? Well, what happened was, in my heart, in this whole thing, it just rang so true, the need to preach that gospel, the saving gospel, the real gospel, not the false gospel of the

07:36

Eastern Orthodox Church, not the false gospel of Roman Catholicism, not the false gospel of Mormonism, the false gospel of Jehovah's Witnesses, the false gospel of Islam, but the true gospel of what

07:49

Jesus had done. And it really rang true with me. I've always known it and believed it, but it was just that extra oomph.

07:59

Maybe some of you have experienced that kind of a thing, something you've known and believed for a long, long time, and all of a sudden, for some reason, it's like the heat's turned up on it.

08:11

And that was the case. It was a juxtaposition of the truth of the simplicity of the gospel compared to the paganism and traditions of man that were taking the place of the truth.

08:27

So I also... I'll kind of segue into something else before we get to the caller.

08:34

Then we went, next week, we went over to the Vatican, I mean, to Italy, and we saw the

08:39

Vatican and the pomp and the gold. It outdid the Eastern Orthodox Churches by far.

08:45

It's just incredible. The money, the wealth. So I was talking to some

08:52

Catholics, and I think Eastern Orthodox were in the room a few days ago, and brought up this issue of the riches.

09:00

And I brought it up before here, I think last week. The riches of the churches versus the riches of the disciples.

09:10

Because these churches claim to be the true successors of apostolic authority.

09:17

To me, it just sounds arrogant. We are the true church. We have the successors of the true apostles.

09:24

We have the truth. You've got to come to our church. It's just a bunch of garbage.

09:31

And I was talking to these guys in the room, and I said, so, if your church is the descendants and the authority of the apostles, let me ask you, did they gather wealth for themselves, the disciples?

09:48

Is that what they did in the synagogues and the home churches? They made sure there were statues and icons all over the place, and crowns and gold and silver.

09:58

Is that what they did? Is that the true church with the apostles who were in it?

10:03

Did the apostles do what you guys do in your churches? And I said, of course not.

10:10

And yet you claim to be the true church with the true apostle apostolic authority in succession.

10:16

And yet you don't behave like them. And I said, there's no way. I said, there's just no way.

10:22

You guys are of the apostles. You don't live like them. You don't preach like them.

10:28

You don't teach like them. You don't act like them. Anyway, those are some of my thoughts.

10:35

I need to preach that gospel. Boy. All right, let's get to Christopher from North Carolina.

10:43

I mean, Christopher, you're on the air. Hey. Hey, Matt. How are you today?

10:49

I'm doing okay. The cough I've got is mostly gone. It's still there. But other than that, hanging in there, doing okay.

10:55

Thanks. Good. Praise God. So, two questions really.

11:01

First, did you tell the Pope to repent when he went to Rome? Oh, I wanted to see him so bad.

11:07

I would have, Hey, Mr. Pope, I've got a question for you. And my question would have been, are all of your sins forgiven right now?

11:14

Oh, I would have started, I would have, you know. In fact, in St.

11:21

Peter's Basilica, there was a throne -like chair that was in this church.

11:28

I forgot to talk about that. A throne -like chair. All this pomp and all this stuff around it, that's where the

11:33

Pope and only he is allowed to sit there. Oh, man. Such majesty.

11:39

Such wealth. Such self -exaltation. Oh, the chair only he can sit in.

11:48

Oh, that's so biblical. Yeah, right. I wanted to go sit in that chair and have someone take a picture of me, but I figured

11:53

I'd probably get beat up pretty badly if I tried it. Oh, man. That's funny.

12:00

So, the reason I called, I just had to throw that bonus one in there. But the reason I called is,

12:09

I'm going to use this because it's a common word, but paranormal, and I don't believe in ghosts.

12:16

So, I just wanted to kind of put that out there. I was kind of curious, and biblically speaking, because obviously it's the truth, and we go off of that, but I've never seen in Scripture an explanation of material objects being moved by immaterial beings, like angels and demons.

12:41

So, I just wanted to get your take on how, I don't even know how to word the question, but I guess how is that even possible?

12:56

I'm kind of just in awe of, hey, this stuff happens, but how?

13:05

So, that's my question. I'm not sure I understand the question. So, I guess the question is like, so, angels and demons, and people believe, oh, this is a ghost of a loved one, which is not true.

13:24

That's kind of not true. How I believe it anyway. Like, how, for example, if there's like a doll, like, how can this doll move by the spirit?

13:37

You mean, can a ghost, I mean, can a demon move physical objects, is that what you're asking?

13:46

Yeah, yeah. Okay, we'll tell you what, we've got a break, so hold on, and let's get to that right after the break, okay?

13:52

So, hold on, buddy. Hey, folks, be right back if you want to give me a call, 877 -207 -2276.

14:00

We'll be right back. It's Matt Slick live, taking your calls at 877 -207 -2276.

14:13

Here's Matt Slick. All right, buddy, welcome back to the show. Let's get back on here with Christopher.

14:19

Are you still there? Yes, sir. All right, man. Okay, so, can spirits, demonic forces, angels, whatever, can they affect material objects, is that what you're asking?

14:35

Not can they, but like, because it puzzles me, it's like, okay, these are immaterial beings that can move objects, and I'm like,

14:52

I'm like, whoa, how could this happen, and so I was just thinking if maybe you had maybe some kind of explanation, or something, so.

15:02

It's like saying, how does God move a door by his command in his word? He can command a door to move, and it moves.

15:08

How does he do that? We don't know. So how do angels, demonic forces, et cetera, how do they exert a force to cause an object to be affected?

15:19

Don't know. We just know that they can do it. It's like our human spirit in our physical bodies.

15:25

How is it that our souls can move our physical bodies? I don't know how it works.

15:31

I know that it works. Okay. Yeah. Okay, I just wanted to see if maybe you had, you know, some insight, maybe there's a scripture somewhere, or something else.

15:44

What the heck is the science behind this? I don't know. It was just a curious question. I think you're looking at what's called the instrumental means.

15:52

I'm not sure. I think that's what it is. But no, the Bible doesn't say that God has this immaterial force emanating out of his soul that he can focus with his concentrating eyeballs and make it, you know, and it works.

16:04

I know what you're asking, but we just know that they can do things. They just can.

16:11

Yeah. That's it. Yeah. They just can. I know for sure that the Lord 100%, but like as far as like lesser beings like angels and demons, but okay.

16:23

Well, cool, Matt. Well, thanks for the answer. You have a good one. Hey, you too, buddy.

16:29

God bless. All right. Hey, if you want to give me a call, we have two open lines, 877 -207 -2276.

16:39

Let's get to Alberto from Georgia. Alberto, welcome. You're on the air. Yes. Good evening,

16:45

Matt Slade. What do you think about what situation is going on in Baku, Azerbaijan, where the

16:51

Christians have been persecuted, 120 ,000 Christians being persecuted from Pakistan and then also they're running to Armenia.

17:00

Even there, they're trying to persecute them out of that country. So what could Christians can do to help?

17:06

Well, what we can do to help is to pray for them, for one thing, and offer financial support for varying needs.

17:12

And then depending on how we want to get involved, you can start calling up news stations, saying, why aren't you dealing with this?

17:20

Why aren't you dealing with and covering the atrocities that are occurring in these countries like Nigeria? The Muslims are going in and killing

17:27

Christians. They're killing them. We have a missionary in Nigeria that we talked to on a weekly basis and he tells us what's going on.

17:35

And so we can support them financially, support them prayerfully, and we can, depending, if we think we have the ability, is to contact news medias and Senate and Congressmen and say, can you bring this up?

17:54

They're being murdered. So that's the kind of thing I think we can do. The same thing with the

18:00

Jews in England, when they're being, a lot of them I heard when I was watching on Christian networks on TV, that they're being persecuted.

18:07

A lot of them are planning to leave out of the country because it's not safe for them no more. I believe the Christians are leaving

18:13

England? Is that true? Really? Well, what I heard, I don't know, are planning to leave because it's not safe for them.

18:21

Yeah. Yeah. I haven't heard that. On the CB, on the CBN, the news.

18:29

Apparently. If they're talking about it, a lot of them are planning maybe to leave because it's too dangerous for them.

18:35

Because they can't plan to leave England because it's no longer safe for them to stay there because a lot of people are trying to, you know, persecute them and all that.

18:48

I don't know. I haven't heard anything. Yeah, yeah, on CBN, I saw it on the news.

18:54

Also, go ahead. I'd like to have some information on that.

18:59

Documentation, if that's the case. But what it looks like is England has been lost to Islam for decades because they're having lots of children and the regular

19:11

English were not having lots of children. So, England's lost. It's going to become a Muslim -dominated religion.

19:17

And Christians will become persecuted there. They're going to flee. So, I'm sure it's already happened to some degree. But, we'll see.

19:26

Yeah, they've got a big parliament already built in England. The Muslims got a big, giant parliament that for years have been having.

19:33

What do you think about the people complaining one pastor out of North Carolina about the

19:40

God Bless U .S. Bible because they had the... I can't understand you. I can't understand you.

19:45

What do you think about the pastor complaining about the God Bless U .S.

19:51

Bible that had the Constitution inserted? Well, there's many study Bibles out there. They've got footnotes and commentaries in it.

19:58

They're not inspired. They've got picture Bibles. They've got Bibles where they've got maps in them.

20:05

So, what's the big issue? I don't see any problem putting a Constitution in the Bible in the back.

20:10

It's not part of Scripture. Just like you said, like pictures and maps and things like that. And, the copyright stuff which is in there.

20:17

I don't see why it's a problem. No big deal. It's good for people to read the

20:22

Constitution. Yeah, because the Constitution has Bible verses in it.

20:27

I've read the Constitution, the Bill of Rights and all of that, the Declaration of Independence. I was surprised at how many

20:33

Christian principles were clearly woven into it. Yeah, it's worth looking at and reading. Yeah, so I don't know why pastors get upset about it or Christians get upset about it because they're biblically literate.

20:46

Some do, some don't. I prefer a Bible with nothing in it. Just NASB with note pages.

20:53

Just blank note pages and I can do notes in the back. That's me. But some people like maps. They like all kinds of stuff.

20:58

Well, maps are great too. You can put maps in there. A lot of stuff like outlines and doctrinal statements. Hey, that's good too.

21:04

Why not put it in the back of a Bible? So it's all stuff. Well, the Constitution was written with a lot of biblical influence on it.

21:15

You know, when you have a Bible with a Constitution in it, I don't have any problem with that any more than I have a

21:20

Bible with the Heidelberg Catechism put it in the back of it. A lot of study

21:27

Bibles, a lot of pastors promote their Bibles and they publish it and they got their footnotes or they got their commentaries in them.

21:35

So, I mean, each pastor got a different view of certain passages of Scripture, so nobody gets upset about that really.

21:43

I mean, they allow them to be printed and published. So, I mean, different pastors got different points of view.

21:49

Like yourself, you got the Calvinist view and you got other people got the Arminian view and other people got a different view that they've been certain passages and commentaries in the

22:01

Bibles they got and nobody gets upset about that. I mean, some people may, maybe, you know, but still it'll make a big, big issue out of it.

22:10

So, otherwise, it'll make a big issue but God bless you as well. I mean, see, I got a break coming up right now with the news, so.

22:45

Okay, alright. Okay, bye. Alright, man. Okay, thank you. Alright, hey folks, we'll be right back after these messages.

22:52

Please, give me a call at 877 -207 -2276.

22:58

We'll be right back. It's Matt Slick Live!

23:10

Taking your calls at 877 -207 -2276. Here's Matt Slick.

23:16

Alright, and welcome back to the show. Let's get to Rusty from South Carolina. Rusty, welcome.

23:22

You're on the air. Hey. Hey. Hey, can you hear me? Yes, I can.

23:28

Yes, I can. What do you got, buddy? Okay, okay, so, um,

23:35

I voted biblical. I voted biblical and I'm getting a lot of backflash on it, like, because it is people of the church, and they said, and I know they voted race -wise a lot of people, but but when

23:57

I said I voted biblical, I'm getting attacked from both sides anyways, but would

24:03

I be wrong for taking up and explaining why, like, okay, like with abortion,

24:12

I don't agree with it, but, but, a lot of churches say it's their body, and they should be able to do what they want to do with it, but really, once you become saved, yeah, yeah, it's the woman body, she's white, and she should, and she should, um, be able to do what she wants with her body, because it's her body, so my class,

24:41

I was in class today, for the youth, right, so, so, okay, so I'm defending,

24:52

I'm defending, defending for God, and I'm wondering, am I wrong, because, they're not understanding, when they say it's their body, that means, that means, are you a

25:02

Christian? I mean, because you're a Christian, that means you belong to God, and order is order, like, they think it's because people trying to own them, like husbands and wives,

25:15

I told them it's not like that, so, so do you think

25:22

I'm wrong for defending and debating in class? No, you weren't, stand up for the truth, stand up for the truth, okay, and if they are voting based on race, that's sinful, they shouldn't do that, it's wrong, and if they're based, uh -huh, yep, but here's the thing, the reason, the reason

25:47

Trump won, with a, just a mega landslide, 312 electoral votes, it was a shlacking, there's reasons for it, yeah, you should know those reasons, a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot to confuse, a lot to know, like, okay, he was found guilty of 30 felonies, like, what does that mean?

26:09

It's kangaroo court, it's kangaroo court, because I've seen plenty of judges and lawyers saying that these are trumped up charges, no pun intended, they're just trying to get rid of him constantly, nobody else has ever done this to him, ask them, why is it they're only going after Trump?

26:27

Why is it? Because Bill Clinton did stuff, what about Hillary Clinton?

26:35

She broke laws all over the place with the emails, destroyed evidence, no charges, nothing, because the left didn't care, they only care about the conservatives, and what about Hunter Biden's laptop, and then the left said it was all

26:51

Russia hoax, it was not, it was true, and yet, are they bringing charges against Biden for knowing this stuff?

27:01

No, of course not, are they going to bring Biden when he gets out of office? Of course not, they're hypocrites. So I asked my teacher,

27:08

I'm sorry, so I asked my teacher, did

27:14

Barack Obama have to sign what he signed to go against the

27:19

Bible? Did he have to sign it? It's like,

27:25

I don't know, but they couldn't answer, like, or did he want to do it?

27:32

I don't know what that particular issue is, but I would love to have been in a class like that,

27:38

I would love to tackle every one of them, all of them against me, it's fine, it's fine,

27:44

I say, let's talk, let's do this. I was in a chat room in a virtual world room, and they were talking about Trump, how evil he was, and I just said, okay, guys,

27:55

I'd like to see the documentation for these things that you're accusing him of, I'm sure it's out there, and they just became vitriolic, accusatory, vile, loud, angry, and I just was calmly saying, well, okay, but I'd see the documentation for this, and they kicked me out of the room, and so, all you have to do is say, show me the documentation, show me where it's the case, show me these things, and I would like to see it,

28:29

I wish he would have shown me the but I don't know where it is,

29:13

I'm sure it's in the documentation, and I wish he would have shown me the

29:28

I wish shown me I wish Well, yeah, I feel I feel better now. I just wanted to get off my chest and see and on But thank you.

29:40

Mm -hmm. Well good for you Just good for you and stand up for the truth, okay, just stand up for it and You gotta understand that when you set up for the truth, you'll be persecuted for it.

29:53

That's just normal. All right, okay All right, man. Yes Okay, all right, thank you.

30:01

All right. God bless. All right. Let's get to Jay from New York Excuse me.

30:09

Jay. Welcome. You are on the air Matt yeah, you think you're so slick

30:19

Yes, I do Hey, is this the Jay really? Go ahead.

30:25

Go ahead. You really? But anyway, um, I've got a couple questions. The first question is about elongated prayer

30:32

All right, you know about the situation where you're with somebody. Let's say you're out to have a cup of coffee.

30:37

Maybe get a piece of pie and Your friend says hey, would you mind

30:43

I say grace and you say yeah sure and then they Lead into some sort of sermonette like miniature sermon while they're in the prayer

30:52

I Have my own means of kind of letting them know hinting at them that it's too long, but I want to hear what you say

31:05

This is veckal, right? You're veckal, right? Right, buddy. Yeah. Yep. You got it. That's right. Got it Yeah, hey folks.

31:11

I've known veckal off for years. We met we met what ten years ago or so and That was a good guy, yeah, we call him veckal

31:18

He is the same warped sense of humor that I have and we got along so well.

31:23

It was awesome Yeah, I'm with you, you know, it's like, you know, you're praying over your food let's

31:30

Thank you, and you pray and yeah five minutes sermon. That's like dude. I'm dying of hunger here

31:37

Yeah Come on, you know, so then I don't want everyone to pray

31:45

What's gonna happen so That doesn't sound too spiritual

31:50

But I think people need to use wisdom when you're just at a meal and everybody's there don't entrap them

31:55

Into forcing them to be quiet and in a prayerful spiritual mood and hear your words of wisdom

32:01

Just ask the Lord to bless the food and you go forward and go on. That's what I would say. But yeah, okay

32:08

That's what we do. We had lunch Remember But no advice on while they're praying like is it wrong to just kind of interrupt them?

32:18

Or what do you have a tactic of yourself of your own? Yeah, you just cough really loudly and so that everybody's you know, she's out of their chair and that's one option and The other one is is you call yourself on your phone and have it ring.

32:35

I think you do that. I don't know Start praying start praying Lord, would you please and this guy ended, you know sometime this month, you know,

32:45

I Don't know. I've been in situations like that. I'm like, oh man,

32:51

I You know, but then you complain you're spirit not spiritual

32:59

Yeah, yeah Okay, I have my own tactic but I'll share with that another time

33:05

I know you got other problems But no, I don't have any other colors. No, we don't I want to know what's your tactic? What do you do?

33:12

Yeah, my tactic is very similar to something what you said earlier about a loud cough

33:18

But what I do is kind of like give like an elongated and highly unnecessary loud sniff, you know

33:25

Kind of like what my dad would do when it's like we watch cartoons at night

33:32

And then when it's time for bed, he will always give us this loud sniff to let us know that Okay, he's getting ready to tell us that time to go to bed, you know, so you're like well

33:43

Yeah, I got you. Yeah, but you know what big I got another idea after the break I'll tell you another idea that he goes it would be a really good one takes a little practice, but hold on.

33:52

Okay? Hey folks, we have Nobody waiting other than Jay here. If you want to give me a call eight seven seven two zero seven two two

34:00

Seven six you'll be right back It's Matt slick live taking your calls at eight seven seven two zero seven two two seven six.

34:16

Here's Matt slick All right, I want to welcome back to the last segment of the hour if you want to give me a call the numbers eight

34:22

Seven seven two zero seven two two seven six. All right, Jay. You still there?

34:30

Yep, can you hear me? Yeah now here's an idea You see I was thinking I was thinking this could take some practice though if you could verbally, you know with your mouth imitate a large stomach growl

34:46

That would be good Like that but you got to throw your voice down there, you know

34:54

So, I don't know if that would do it and or another option would be to pass out from the you know from food deprivation

35:05

So Okay, I don't know These are ideas you would appreciate, you know,

35:14

I get you, you know, cuz you know, I think it's good Mm -hmm. Well, I guess on a more moral aspect of it is what is it unbiblical for us to interrupt a

35:28

Let's say that the prayer is sincere, but it's just too long Is it unbiblical for me to say?

35:36

All right. All right. All right. Come on. Take it easy. Let's get some food well After the second hour,

35:43

I think it's time to enter interrupt but I would I've done before I would just Just endure it and then if it's a persistent habit of this one individual

35:56

I would go talk to them and say look, can you just you know trying to be really nice? Just keep the prayers down for less than a minute.

36:03

Just it's just food. We're praying for You know, we're not asking, you know peaceful harmony of all universals in the world and three of all the political systems you know, so That's me

36:18

I'm going to I'm going into the habit of if I'm with the same individual.

36:23

I just say hey, we're gonna say grace and They'll say hey, I'm gonna say grace over before it and that's the yeah,

36:29

I'll do it. I'll do it. I'll do it. Yeah Well, sometimes what I'll do because I'm kind of the spiritual leader wherever I go and in my groups of friends and things like that You know default.

36:40

So It kind of falls on me to pray and stuff like that So I just I'd you know a dinner a lot.

36:47

I just pray, you know Lord and just give a 30 second prayer and that's it. Let's eat and not try to be non spiritual

36:55

But I'm trying to hold people captive, you know, that's right, right

37:01

Okay. Yeah, I was kind of Conflicted about that for a few years and that I wasn't sure what the there's a right way or a wrong way to do it

37:09

So but okay get her, you know in advance get a rumbling of the tummy

37:16

Record on your phone. You put your phone down by your lap and then she now I'm People to go you're telling people how to be unspiritual

37:22

Uh, well, maybe just hungry so I don't know

37:28

Go talk to the guy afterwards That knows my heart and my stomach right? You don't be bad though.

37:35

You really would be bad If you and I are sitting across the table and the head of the table the guy's going on for three minutes

37:42

And we're you know giving each other, you know side. I look Yeah, we'd be having trouble trying to keep quiet, you know

37:50

Yeah, which I have done to be honest I've done it with my wife we would sitting at a table with some friends and the prayers kind of long and I kind of You know just peek at her.

38:00

I mean she wasn't looking but I was looking at it if she'd notice to Real quick so much one of the question is about the

38:14

Meltdowns that we're getting from a lot of the liberals on tik -tok and stuff like that In my honest opinion some of it seems to be just them being babies

38:23

But I think other cases this this is sort of a spiritual maybe even demonic Activity going on.

38:30

What's your thoughts on that? Yeah, I saw some

38:35

I Saw some women who some videos that people were collecting. They're actually threatening to kill white people and they're white women

38:43

One woman said she's gonna get a gun and she's gonna find somebody and she's calmly saying it. I'm gonna kill him It's what she's saying and out of South Korea There was what's called the for B movement and the

38:54

B is for four letters Four words in Korean that all start with B where the women there on the history of it

39:00

But they would deny their husbands of certain Privileges and rights and things like that in the protests or whatever

39:07

And so now the they're saying let's do the for B movement. And so these women are trying to punish men for voting for Trump And which

39:16

I think is a great idea because these women they won't procreate that way I think it's a good plan Okay, that's good

39:23

So I'm a problem with that But yeah, I've seen meltdowns crying.

39:28

They're diaper Indians, you know, they're man babies and women babies It's like gee whiz

39:36

Believe the country if you're so upset go away, you know go to another country. That's fine My opinions, that's right and it looks like Trump's gonna take that or the

39:49

Republicans are gonna take the house They've already got the Senate this means if that happens heads are gonna roll, which

39:55

I hope they do The DOJ will be gutted and cleaned out the FBI Hopefully be gutted and cleaned out and we'll get the illegals back out of the country and let him come in legally lawfully

40:06

He wants to reduce. Oh, I saw a video yesterday of a guy who said he listed out all the things that have already improved

40:15

Since Trump was just elected. I mean In fact, my crypto has gone up 25 % 25 % in three days three four days.

40:25

Yeah. Oh, yeah, and it and Hamas is ready to quit Putin, you know

40:33

Russian guy Putin he's ready to talk peace with Ukraine. There was this list of like 15 things

40:40

The stock market is going up everything. Why do you ask? Why do you think that is?

40:46

Because if the Democrat Kamala Harrop Kamala the Marxist would have gotten in this stuff wouldn't have happened

40:55

These would have gone the other way, right? That's right. Oh, yeah Yeah.

41:01

Yeah, I could talk all day about this situation and a good positive stuff that's happened within the first 48 hours of the election

41:07

But yeah, yeah, maybe maybe next time we'll talk more about it, okay.

41:13

All right. Yeah, let's do that. All right, buddy Alright, let's get some

41:21

42:50

DDoS attacks and thunder anyway So we had a problem with that related to the schools and so we went in and and It was supposed to be having been fixed altogether supposed to be a week ago.

43:02

Absolutely taken care of I even went through two of the schools and fixed all kinds of things, you know, because you can't edit your own stuff

43:10

So this is a it's an important concern. I want to make sure we get right on it So you do that and I will make sure it's taken care of by tonight.

Okay It's okay Yeah, cuz I'm just uh, I'm really excited to start learning on more about apologetics and Kind of being more disciple to other people and I actually explain and Well good.

44:11

Let's get to Elijah from Pennsylvania. Welcome. You're on the air Hey Matt, I just wanted to Talk to you about some of our politics for a little bit.

44:23

So sure what what what what I recently discovered Is that is that most

44:31

Democratic women not all of them, but a large majority of them The reason why they vote continue to vote

44:37

Democrat is because they believe that they have the right to murder their babies

44:43

That's one of the reasons Yep. Yeah, they've been one of the main reason.

44:49

Yep. They've been taught lies That it's just their body if it's their body

44:54

Then does the the pregnant woman have two heads four arms and four legs because it's her body They don't think like this and the the life in the womb.

45:03

I asked him is that human or is it not human? Well, if it's not human, there's a vacated transplanted into a dog

45:09

The woman with the dog You know, it just asks these questions. They don't think and the reason is because they're they're dead in their hearts

45:16

They're wicked in their hearts and they want to kill the life in them for their own convenience Yeah, so they're gonna vote

45:22

Democrat that tells you the Democratic Party's about Yeah Yeah, and I and I had just jumped on a few minutes ago when

45:33

I was talking about how a lot of them wanted Start the 4b -4b move moving where they where they don't right, uh you know have sex with men or or or against begin as a relationship with men, but uh, but uh, that's fine by me because I rather data a

45:52

Republican or independent who loves God loves the Second Amendment loves America, you know

45:58

You know, I don't want a woman that hates any of that stuff That's right You know,

46:04

I it reminds me one of the one of the things about my wife before we got married, you know, we're dating for a while and I saw her with children and It was one of the most attractive things to see her being that good with children and we got married and then we had a son

46:21

While she was pregnant. We found out that he had holoprosencephalus He's gonna die when he's being born and they said you want to abort the baby and she

46:30

Politely but firmly jumping that nurse's and please don't ever bring that up again. I Mean Wow, that's what women need to be like not the not the it's inconveniencing me

46:43

So I'm gonna kill it Yeah Boy you said you said you said that if the if if the baby was

46:53

Birthed out it would have died immediately or it would have died later. He did die

46:58

He died after being born and died in our arms Thank you about 30 years ago and God's used it to Open up doors and talk to witness to people but look man
