#FreeMenHere2021
Alright, well, the chickens have started squawking, which means it's time to record another episode. I might just rename my channel the 80 Robles Roast Ruslan channel, because I feel like I've been doing this for like the last month.
But we're almost done, and I think we're just too far to stop now, so we're gonna continue this. If you remember, Ruslan yesterday was, he was falling into his own trap, the definition game. He was saying he can't be a socialist because he believes in developing useful skills and finding a good wife and all that kind of stuff.
And, you know, if I was Ruslan, I would say, is that how socialists would define socialism? See, it's a stupid game to play like that. It's really annoying and very weaselly. It's what Ruslan is expert in, playing that definition game.
I don't do that. That's not my style, but hey, you know, let's continue and see if he continues falling into his own trap.
That's what I'm talking about. I think government schools are Marxist, so anyone that supports it, that's...
Well, then you've changed the definition of Marxism, but you have to... So listen, this is what we gotta do. No, no, no, let me say this.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Let me say this. You changed the definition of socialism, man.
If you're gonna be upset that people changed the definition of racism and they say racism isn't just an impartiality, it's...
No. This is a real B &H customer story. Jack and Barbara, professional wildlife photographers and B &H... B &H is a good...
It's power and prejudice, and I don't like that because that's what we hear a lot. We can't then turn around and say you changing the definition of Marxism on everybody, and now it's this all-encompassing junk drawer term of...
And that's not fair, bro, nor is it charitable. No, I'm not. I'm saying that there's a... You call me a Marxist. You literally call me a Marxist. I come from Communist Soviet Union, bro. I've seen communism firsthand.
It's not what you're describing it to be.
Right, right, right. So Ruslan thinks because he comes from the Soviet Union that he's an expert on these things. And what Ruslan's problem is is that he doesn't really think about these things too deeply.
So, sure, in the Soviet Union, we were way further along on the road to serfdom than we are right now, but we're on that road. That's the point. Like, yes, of course, we're not as bad as Communist Soviet Russia yet.
We get it, but we're taking small little steps down that road every single day, and nobody else... No Christian wants to do that, because we know where that road leads. We know where the road of rebelling against God in the law, in the church, in the individual, in the family...
No matter where you do it, whatever sphere of authority it is, when you rebel against God, it doesn't lead anywhere good. And we don't want to do that anymore. So, it's great that you came from the Soviet Union.
It's too bad, though, that you haven't thought about these things deeply enough to see that we're on a very similar path to them.
I think you can... Can you acknowledge my point? Yeah, I acknowledge your point.
You're reaching with that.
I acknowledge your point, but I think you can adhere to positions. This is where I think this is where this sort of stuff comes in. You can have these sort of Marxist tendencies or whatever, and government schools is a Marxist idea.
The idea of the government running education and indoctrinating children, that is a Marxist idea.
Okay, where did public schools come from? Have you gone down that rabbit hole of where public schools come from, and how it all started, and why it started?
Are you talking about prior to Marx and those guys? Yeah. Like the early Puritans?
In America! He's so reasonable, right? He's just such a charitable guy. Like, yeah, duh. But, you know, this is, again, I think... Listen, public schools are a very central tenet of Marxism. But they obviously weren't...
There are other groups besides Marxists. It's not totally exclusive to Marxism, right? There are other groups besides Marxists that want to have public schools. We get that. We understand that. And, you know, Ruslan thinks he has them here.
And, again, this is the trap that he set, and he's very pleased with himself that he sprung the trap.
The early American ones, I think America was wrong for doing the early American, even the government schools in early America.
So America has been Marxist from the beginning? Ooh! Trap sprung! America has been Marxist from the beginning?
Well, it's definitely been influenced by the French Revolution from the beginning, for sure. Okay. So a lot of that is of the same... Like, I wouldn't say that America is, like, a completely Christian nation.
I think there's a lot of Christian influence. But there's a lot of influence from the French Revolution as well. But, yeah, I would say... Anyway, that's what I would say. We all have these, like, tendencies.
Like, just a few years ago, you were UBI. A few years ago, to be fair. A few years ago, you were a favorite universalist. Yes, and I changed my mind on it. My mind can change on these things. That's right.
So I think...
But, again, let's revisit this. Yeah, I'm glad he's got an open enough mind to change when he's wrong, but he doesn't even know why he was wrong. Like, that's the point. Like, his mind changed because...
This guy is going to be tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrine, whatever sounds nice. His mind changed because he realized that, pragmatically, it didn't work this time. It wouldn't work because...
Remember the thing with the sushi? He tried to get some sushi, and nobody was working because they made too much money on the universal basic income that we're paying right now. So, like, that's great and all that you learned your lesson, but we have to learn why.
Like, because the next time... This is the problem with people like Ruslan. The next time another charlatan named Andrew Yang or somebody else comes up with another wacky idea, you need to know before you try it whether it's going to be good or not, whether it's the right thing to do.
You need to have some kind of a standard to say, that's the wrong thing to do, this is the right thing to do, without trying it, right? Like, we don't have to try every piece of doo-doo just to make sure they all taste disgusting.
Like, we can say, okay, this is a piece of doo-doo, I'm not supposed to eat it, so I'm not going to try any of them, and I know full well that I'm not supposed to eat it because it's a piece of doo-doo.
Like, that's the problem. Ruslan has to try each piece of doo-doo to see if this is still doo-doo. That's the problem with Ruslan when it comes to his political opinions. It's great that he changed his mind, I'm glad, that's a good thing.
But, let's try to get some tools, let's try to build those useful skills, when it comes to our politics, we've got a standard that we can look at and say, hmm, this is not really a good idea, and I can prove it based on this, this, and this in the scripture.
So far removed from what a biblical government looks like, that we don't know what is Marxism, what is Socialism, what is Communism, like, we don't even know.
I'm telling you, I know what Communism is.
I'm saying I know what Communism is, I've seen it firsthand. I believe you do. I think we see examples of Communism right now.
I believe you do, but my point is just saying that we're so far removed from, what does the Bible say about government schools?
Amen, amen, that's the point.
That if you say, I'm going to shut down government schools.
That's the point, that's the point Marcus should have been driving from the beginning. What does the Bible say about public schools? It doesn't matter if it's Marxist or Socialist or something else. It doesn't matter where it came from.
We know it didn't come from the scripture. It didn't come from God. It's not a good idea to steal money from people in order to school other people. It's not a good idea. We understand that that goes against the laws of nature and the law of God, which is the same thing essentially.
Obviously, we understand God made nature, so he put laws into nature. Anyway, but this is the point, that's the question. That's the only question when you get a piece of legislation. Can I find this in the scripture either explicitly or according to the good and necessary consequence of God's law and the case law?
And of course, we can talk about the natural law as well and all of that. But the point is you don't have to try the doo-doo first to make sure it tastes like doo-doo. Let's shut down government schools.
Let's let the church come in and do. Let's shut down government health care, Medicaid, Medicaid. Let's get charity hospitals like the Catholic hospitals. That's why they were started, right? Because there wasn't Medicaid and Medicare.
So we're so far removed from that idea now that it's like we don't even know what a biblical government is.
I'm not disagreeing with you, Marcus. I'm not going to sit here and say I know what a biblical government is and I know how it's played out in scripture and how it needs to be applied today. I'm not sitting here as an authority on these topics.
All I'm saying is, hey, man, that's a very broad definition. And I wouldn't be mad at Eric Mason for saying that black people can't be racist, which I don't agree with. I wouldn't be mad at him for saying black people can't be racist if you think anyone that's cool with government schools is a Marxist.
That you were changing the goalposts. Both sides are now changing the goalposts. There's very little charity.
That's very little charity, bro. Well, you've been very charitable with me but coming on here and having this discussion. Bro, I like your ideas. I like to post them a little. Of course, because they're biblical and you're a Christian.
Yeah, I like it. I think some of the definitions I'm not a big fan of. And I'm just not a fan of otherizing people and dismissing people. I think you don't like the label.
Then I'm sorry. You've got to go to God with that one. You've got to go to God with that one. Because in the scripture, it tells us how to treat people and how to conceive of people that claim the name of Christ but cause divisions.
Claim the name of Christ and then get on a stage in front of a pulpit or behind a pulpit and start talking about them angloids on the inside. It gives us tools in what to do and how to treat them. And it says things like make them as a Gentile to you and have nothing more to do with them and stuff like that.
And so I'm sorry if you don't like otherizing and dismissing people that have these kinds of tendencies and these kinds of practices and they don't repent. You call them to repentance. You ask for a private conversation.
And you warn them once. You warn them twice. And what does the Bible say after that? Have nothing more to do with them. So if you don't like that, I'm sorry. That's not my problem. That's your problem.
And you need to go to God with that. And the thing is, people always say, well, how could you say he walked away from the faith? He's been serving the Lord for 30 years. And it's like, yeah, you can serve the Lord according to other people.
You could look like you're doing all the right things and saying all the right things and all that and then walk away from the faith in a moment. That's possible. That's possible to do. And so we need to be ready for that kind of apostasy, and we need to have tools to deal with that.
We need to understand how to think of that. Like, yes, I understand that he seemed to have a track record of ministry, but now he's preaching racism from the pulpit and calling it good. And we need to have a way to deal with that.
And it's not just deal with it however you want. And if you want to have charity, then you don't have to do nothing to him. No, no, no, no. There are ways to deal with someone who's sinning in that way.
The Bible tells us what to do. And the whole theme of this is just go to the Bible, go to the Scripture, go to God, and he'll tell you how to handle these situations. That's always what the suggestion should be when it comes to how to deal with things in the church.
You guys might like that Augustine quote, and it might be a good quote. I heard it's a fake Augustine quote and all that. But it's not Scripture. See, that's the point. Ruslan will pull out anything as long as it's not Scripture.
He's like, oh yeah, Augustine, charity and all things. That's not what the Scripture says when it comes to dealing with a divisive person. See, this is the point. When a person makes a distinction between white and black and say there's only one skin color that's capable of this sin and it's white, that's a divisive person.
You warn him once, you warn him twice, you have nothing more to do with him. It does not say in 2 Augustine 3, charity and all things for a brother that's dividing up the body of Christ like a pizza. And it pisses me off because this is the nonsense that people think, oh, that sounds so nice, because between me and Ruslan they're going to say Ruslan sounds like a nicer guy.
I don't care. I don't care because he's quoting Augustine like it's Scripture when it comes to dealing with a divisive person who's dividing the body of Christ intentionally like a pizza, and I'm sick of it.
For obvious reasons. I don't like some of these labels. I think if I'm following the Bible, I'm like, oh, man, you gave me a really good verse. I got to go freshen up on Exodus chapter 18. This is really interesting.
Give me some new information, right? Dope. But I think I'm coming from the position of, hey, let's have dialogue and be charitable. That's all I'm saying. And I've seen these dudes repeatedly dismissed and not treated well.
And these are guys that outside of this, you probably aligned with Dr. Eric Mason on way more than you disagree with him on.
And that makes no difference when you're denying Christ in these areas because the Bible doesn't say, again, this is the point. You got to go to the Bible, Ruslan, because your heart is leading you in the wrong direction because here's what your heart says.
Man, like they do so much good. Like 80 of what they believe is good. Yeah, I know they're dividing up the body of Christ according to skin color. Yeah, I know that they're saying that there are certain skin colors that are the only ones allowed to commit a certain sin.
I know, but like they do so much good. And that's not how the Scripture tells us to act in these situations. And so what you need to do is you need to find the courage and you need to find the obedience to do what God says to do in these situations.
The reason these people are rejected is not because of a small theological disagreement because there are so many theological disagreements that I have with people on my side of this issue that I don't reject as brothers in Christ.
People often are interested to find out that I'm a Presbyterian by confession. So they're weirded out by that because they're Baptists, right? And that's a major theological disagreement, but we consider each other brothers, right?
We consider each other brothers. We're not dividing up the body of Christ according to skin color and pretending like it's good. We're not preaching heresy and racism from the pulpit and pretending it's good.
Like, we're not divisive in that way. It's not—see, that's the thing. He wants me to think, like, just fundamentalist. They think everything's a crucial issue. No, that's not it because we have divisions amongst ourselves and yet we still understand that we're brothers, right?
We get that. So it's not fundamentalism. It's these issues because righteousness—like Rick Caldwell said, righteousness and justice are the foundation of Yahweh's throne. That's what it says in the Psalms, right?
The foundation of Yahweh's throne. This is not a tiny little issue here. This is not small.
This is a major issue. Outside of your definition of Marxism, his definition of racism, we would sit here and have a conversation and probably agree on 95 of all the other doctrines.
Him probably more than me and you. Yeah, the Judaizers agreed on a lot of doctrine too, right? They weren't denying Christ. They were just saying Christ plus also this other stuff. And now we've got Mason and Jim R. Tisby and all these guys saying, yeah, yeah, Christ, but also anti-racism.
Also all this other stuff. This is the same sin that they were doing back in the days with the Judaizers, right? We all understand that. And so the Judaizers, oh yeah, sure, they agreed on 80 of doctrine.
But they just had the small little thing and it was, you know what I mean? It sounds reasonable, but it's not reasonable what he's saying here.
If we're talking Calvinism, if we're talking post-millennialism, if we're talking all these different things. And it's a bummer that then we lead with these other things and we say, no, Marxism, up there, essential, really important.
I'm like, dude, I just, I don't know, man. I just don't see it that way. I don't see it as that herniate. I don't think America is going to get destroyed. I think God is king. Jesus is king.
Jesus is on the throne. And I think it's going to work out. I believe that America can be destroyed. I'm okay with it.
I think it can be destroyed. I'm not saying, I'm saying any of this stuff that's happening right now. They told us that gay marriage was going to destroy America 12 years ago, 13 years ago. Paul Washer was saying this stuff.
We haven't fell apart yet.
You know what I mean? Do you hear this, man? He doesn't even, he doesn't believe in the wrath of God. He doesn't believe in these things. He doesn't think that God acts that way anymore. Like they told me gay marriage is going to destroy America, but we're still here.
This is, this is, this is arrogance. This is arrogance. I'm glad we're still here too, but I'm wondering why. You know what I mean? Like, cause I read the scripture and I know that God's not mocked. And I know how God reacts when nations just completely reject him.
And Ruslan's over here is like, yeah, we haven't been destroyed yet. So, you know, maybe we should have a little charity and try this stuff out. Maybe, maybe, maybe I try this piece of doo doo over here.
Yeah, yeah. Maybe we should do the, the, the, the, I'm not saying he says this, but maybe we should try the, the pronoun hospitality. And try this piece of doo doo over here because we haven't been destroyed yet.
And it's like, no, no, no, no, no. We need to repent immediately and do everything God says from here forward. We have to do that. We got to stop these experiments with this sin. We got to stop because he's going to destroy us.
And just because he hasn't, he's been patient with us and we haven't repented. Like, he's been patient. He's relented from, from disaster upon us. And we're just like, yeah, let's just keep trying. Like, I got a great idea.
Let's, let's, let's, let's, let's elect a transsexual to the governor of California. That's a great, we haven't been destroyed yet. Let's try this piece of doo doo over here. Like, it's like, you don't have to try doo doo to know it's doo doo.
This is, this is the point. Like, like, this is, this is, this, the end of this video is very disturbing to me. Because I, I, I, I know that there's an army of Ruslans that think in this exact way. Oh, Jerry Follett was wrong about, about the gay marriage thing.
We have, we're not, God's not going to destroy us for that. That's, this is, this is, this is terrifying in the sense of, I'm not, I'm not scared because I'm covered. My, my, my journey has been vouchsafed, right?
Doesn't mean I won't suffer, but, but I'm, I'm okay. But I know there's a gaggle of people like this out there that think in this way. And it's terrifying. By the grace of God. I think God's ultimately on a throne.
Yeah. And so. Canada on the other hand. Canada is, Canada is going through it, man. Like, like the stuff that's going on there. And I will be honest with you. Is your church meeting by the way? They are meeting, indoors.
Both churches I fellowship with, indoors. One church, a little less, no masks at all. Makes me a little uncomfortable. If I'm going to be all the way honest with you, that's neither here nor there. This is why I'm against governor Newsom.
This is.
Figures. Figures. By the way, I got hassled for the first time in a while. And it was ridiculous. I was, I ordered some pizza from Domino's and we had people coming over. And so I, I picked it up. Normally we get it delivered, but this time I don't even know why we didn't get delivered, but whatever.
We had a bunch of kids at our house and we were watching a bunch, like with seven kids. And so I ordered this pizza and I went into Domino's, you know, like I normally do with no mask. And the lady behind the counter was like, sorry, you have to wear a mask.
And I was like, I'm just picking up pizza. She's like, you have to wear a mask. And if, if, if I was in a situation, in another situation where I didn't have a mask on me, I don't even carry it on me anymore.
If I was in another situation, I wasn't trying to feed seven kids. I would have just walked out and demanded a refund, of course. So I went like this, I said, how about now? And she said, okay. And she gave me my pizza.
It was so, it was humiliating to be honest. But, um, but yeah, I, I think, uh, I think I'm done buying pizza from Domino's and they're going to hear about that. I'm going to talk to their manager. I'm going to go Karen on them, you know?
But anyway, but yeah, figures he's a, he's a pro masker.
This is why I've, I've repeatedly said we need to repeal him. Even though they're going to dismiss it as, oh, it's just a Trumpism. No, no. There's Democrats. There's Republicans. There's independents.
People want that dude out of here because we're seeing what happened in Canada and we're going, holy smokes. That's freaking scary. We don't want that to happen in, in, in America.
Let me recommend stop trying pieces of doo doo, you know, maybe just, maybe just a bit. How about just obedience? That's a good thing.
California and California has all kinds of issues. And I go back to this idea of wisdom will be proven right by her children. If these ideas are terrible, it'll fall apart. It's falling apart in Los Angeles.
It doesn't work. He's just going to stay trying pieces of doo doo. You know what I mean? Wisdom. Okay. That's a good, that's a good thing. Right? Okay. We get it. But the thing is like, we've got a standard here.
We've got a cheat sheet. Like we know the difference between a steak and doo doo. Right? We got, God gave us this big book of law. And again, you know, we're not Israel, so we don't put it one to one.
We get the general equity of the law of God. We get the principles. We can look at the natural law and all that. We get that. We have this cheat sheet, this filet mignon dinner. Actually, I like ribeye better.
We've got this ribeye. And we don't, but so many of us are like, yeah, I don't know. Let's try this over here. And it's a pile of doo doo. And we're like, let's try it because let's see if wisdom will make, see if this idea is okay.
Like maybe it'll hash out. This will be better than this steak over here. I'm going to try it. I've got to try everything. I've got to keep an open mind on this. I've got to try everything to see. There might be something better than this ribeye.
And that's a stupid strategy. And Rusan, I doubt you watch these videos, but if you do, stop doing that. You don't have to do that. We don't need to eat the crumbs. We don't need to try the pieces of doo doo.
We've got a steak dinner, you know, and God has given it to us graciously. He's revealed to us how to do this. Let's just do what he says. How about that? Let's give that a try. How about that for one?
Let's just do what God says and call it a day. Anyway, I think I've said doo doo a little bit too much today, so I'm going to go now. I hope you found this video helpful. God bless.
