Hello everyone and welcome

0:41

to Christian Fellowship Show . We

0:43

fight three battles every day , on Day

0:45

Through Friday . One , to get a humble

0:47

and grateful heart aligned onto the Lord

0:50

. Two , to deliberately pursue

0:52

a relationship with our Creator and

0:54

prayer and through reading His Holy Scripture

0:57

. Three

0:59

, to spend time in the body

1:01

in fellowship , iron-trapening

1:04

iron and corporate prayer . It's

1:06

also home of the 90-day peaceful

1:09

challenge . If , in 90 days

1:11

, you stop doing you

1:13

and you start doing

1:15

God , meaning that your

1:17

whole life you've been born of your way and

1:20

that's why you are the way you are Now

1:23

, it's time to get God's way

1:25

away a chance . And

1:28

it takes 90 days to do that . And we do

1:30

that by submitting five aspects of your life

1:32

faith and repentance and finances

1:34

. And under

1:36

God faith , God

1:38

gets the best of your time

1:41

. He is number one . The only way to fail . The

1:43

challenge is this day of faith and

1:45

you start over . Two , family pouring

1:47

into your family , pouring light into

1:49

your family every day . Three

1:53

, this becoming the best holy

1:55

vessel you can be of

1:57

your family or

2:03

fundamentals . This is your

2:05

skill set . So sharpening your skill set

2:07

, whether that can go in the

2:09

gym and working on your combatives

2:12

or going to the range , but also be learning

2:14

a skill , like to swap out a toilet

2:16

, or regenerative farming , putting

2:18

in a light switch , becoming the heroes of your

2:20

house . And finances

2:23

which is basically making

2:25

sure that you are doing your best to

2:28

go , being able and

2:30

not being right . Also

2:32

making sure you're avoiding the two major pitfalls

2:34

of finances that crunch being

2:37

isolated to death or

2:39

some of the worldly things

2:41

, instead of using your war chest for

2:44

God . I want

2:46

to welcome you

2:49

at Instagram . We are

2:51

streaming Instagram . It's a very

2:54

tight shot . It's not the way to do

2:56

this . I think we need to rotate their

2:58

phone . We are trying

3:02

to make technology streaming to

3:06

Twitter . So I'm not Twitter

3:09

, we are streaming on Twitter , but Instagram

3:11

. So welcome our Instagram family . We

3:13

have about 16,000 followers over

3:15

there , as well

3:17

as our Twitter family , our rumble family

3:19

and Facebook

3:22

YouTube , everywhere

3:28

we take talk right . So again

3:31

, we're so happy you're here . So let's go ahead

3:33

and let's fight our first battle . Let's get a humble heart

3:35

blind on the Lord . All right , dear

3:37

Heavenly Father . Lord , we thank you , thank

3:39

you for this fellowship , thank

3:42

you that and that women from around

3:44

the country , around the world , drop

3:46

by , come together for

3:49

you first to

3:51

pursue you with all their hearts , all

3:53

their mind , all their mind , all their will

3:55

. But

3:59

we know we don't deserve anything

4:01

except judgment

4:06

. Yet

4:08

you gave it to us all . Anyways

4:10

, lord

4:12

, help us be thankful for not just the blessings

4:15

and robberies but

4:18

the ones that we don't know about . Let

4:21

me know , the body is made up of trillions of cells and

4:23

most of them had to work almost perfectly

4:26

for us to be here today , and

4:29

everyone we know didn't

4:32

have something happen to them . They

4:34

all their cells , had to work . And

4:38

how many protections on the highway

4:40

and driving out , and about

4:43

how many near-miss accidents . We

4:45

thank you for your protection . We

4:48

thank you for your sunrise . We

4:51

thank you for every breath of our lungs and

4:54

beating our chest . We

4:57

thank you for the touch of the love , for the

4:59

sound of children's laughter , the

5:02

smell of my wife there . You're

5:08

so beautiful , but we pray that

5:11

time glorifies

5:13

you and only you , and

5:16

what we do here would please you In

5:18

Jesus' name . We pray . All right , battle number one

5:21

done . All right . So

5:23

battle number one done . Now

5:26

the age and you can

5:28

see in the chat Now

5:31

we are in Romans 7 , if I'm

5:34

correct , romans 7

5:36

. So Romans

5:38

6 , basically answer the question

5:40

of why

5:43

not just sin all the time ? And you guys just

5:45

made up those religions so you could do anything

5:47

. And now Paul

5:50

is basically going to make the case to the Jews that

5:52

they're released from the

5:54

wall , the whole thing that they've spent their lives

5:56

trying to do , they're released

5:58

. Now

6:03

I

6:08

can't imagine that that was received very

6:10

formally . So

6:14

let's go ahead and open up your Bibles to

6:16

Romans 7 , chapter

6:18

1 . We're coming up to tomorrow , the

6:21

most important chapter of the Bible , which is Romans

6:23

8 . Romans

6:29

7 . Did

6:32

you know I know , brothers for I'm speaking to those

6:34

who know the law that

6:38

the law is binding on a person only as long

6:40

as he lives ? A married

6:42

woman is bound by law to her husband

6:44

while he lives . When

6:47

her husband dies , she is

6:49

released from the law of marriage . Accordingly

6:53

, she'll be called an

6:55

adulteress . She lives with another man while

6:57

her husband is alive . Whenever

6:59

her husband dies , she

7:01

is free from that law . When she

7:04

marries a man , she

7:06

is not an adulteress . Likewise

7:09

, my brothers , you have also done it

7:12

to the law , the body

7:14

of Christ , so that you may

7:16

belong to another

7:18

, to him

7:21

who has been raised from the dead in

7:23

order that we may bear fruit for

7:25

God . For

7:28

while we were living in the collection of our

7:31

sinful blessings aroused by the law , we

7:33

are working our members to

7:36

bear fruit to death . Now

7:39

we are released from the law , having died

7:42

to that which held us captive , so

7:44

that we serve in the new way

7:46

of the spirit , not

7:49

in the old way of the written code . So

7:53

that part of dying that was a part of our

7:55

life

7:58

. That's

8:02

talking about baptism , right , the act

8:04

of baptism is really

8:12

a symbolic

8:14

but also ceremonial

8:21

aspect

8:24

, where you are going under the water and dying

8:26

to yourself . We talked a little bit about this

8:28

. I think yes , man , when

8:30

you come up , the old person is dead

8:33

, left in the grave , and now you

8:35

are reborn . There are so many

8:37

comparisons

8:39

to that being born

8:42

again . You are coming out of water , you

8:44

are being born a new creature . You

8:46

are going under the water to save your life and

8:48

death and coming out and raising at your first

8:51

breath , you are being washed

8:53

clean . All these different

8:55

things are part of the baptism

8:57

that

9:00

is released from the law . So

9:03

then , shall we say that

9:05

the law is since by

9:08

no means , again by no means , and

9:11

by

9:15

no means is the strongest terminology

9:17

. In Greek they can say that

9:20

means like no , blank

9:22

in way Okay , by

9:24

no means is the strongest language they can use

9:26

in cursing yeah

9:36

. If I yeah they're not

9:38

meant for the law , I would not have known sin

9:40

, or I would have not

9:42

known what it was to covet . The

9:45

law had not said you shall

9:47

not covet , but sin is using

9:49

an opportunity through the commandment , produced

9:52

to me all kinds of covetousness . Apart

9:55

from the law , sin lies death . I

9:59

was once a man from the law

10:01

. When the commandment came

10:04

, sin came along and I died

10:06

. The very commandment

10:08

that produced life proved to me deathly

10:10

, or sin seizing

10:13

an opportunity through the commandment to

10:15

see me and through it

10:17

. So

10:19

the law is holy . The commandment is holy

10:22

, righteous and good To

10:26

that which is good and bright . Deathly , by

10:29

no means is that strong language

10:31

. It was sin producing

10:34

deathly through what is good , in

10:36

order that sin might be shown to be sin

10:38

and , through the

10:41

commandment , might become sinful

10:43

beyond measure . We

10:46

know that the law is spiritual , but

10:49

I am of the flesh , sold under

10:51

sin . I

10:53

do not understand my own actions , but

10:59

I do not do what I want , but

11:01

I do the very thing I hate . Now

11:05

, if I do what I do not

11:07

want , I agree with

11:09

what is good . So

11:12

now there's no longer I who can send

11:14

that dwells within me , for

11:16

I know that nothing good dwells in me that

11:19

is in the flesh , for

11:22

I have the desire to do what is right

11:24

and not the ability to carry

11:26

it out . I do

11:28

not do the good I want , but

11:30

the evil I do

11:33

not want is what I keep doing

11:35

Now , if I do what

11:38

I do not want . There's

11:41

no longer I who do it , but

11:43

send . That dwells in me . I

11:46

finish this paragraph . We're going to talk about this . Mahal

11:50

, it's good to see you . So I wanted

11:52

to be a

11:54

law that I wanted

11:56

you to write evil life close to the hand

11:59

, for I delight

12:01

in the law of God . My

12:03

inner being , when

12:06

I see in my members another law

12:08

, vaging war against

12:10

the law of my mind and

12:13

can make captain to the law of sin , dwells

12:16

in my members fresher

12:18

than I am . Who

12:20

will deliver me from this body of death ? Thanks

12:23

be to God , jesus Christ , our Lord

12:25

. So then , I myself

12:27

serve the law of God In

12:30

my mind , over my flesh , I

12:32

serve the law of sin . There's

12:36

a lot of debate in what this text means . One

12:38

school of philosophy , who I do not prescribe

12:40

to say that Mahal was talking

12:43

about this before he was an apostle , before

12:46

he was doing this , or he's talking

12:48

about somebody who is

12:52

, you know , struggling with the sin value and

12:54

that's not a Christian . Many

12:56

of us agree that

12:58

this is Paul talking about what

13:00

it is to be a very Christian

13:03

, to be a Christian that

13:05

we aren't going to sin

13:07

. Sin is the big battle , and

13:15

he's being painfully transparent

13:17

and honest with us here that

13:19

, even though , as he says so

13:22

, I find the law that when

13:24

I want to do right , I need to lie close to that hand

13:26

, right , can you

13:29

know this ? This could remind you

13:31

I don't know what his

13:33

thing is . He's really mesmerized us

13:35

here . So maybe it's a lust

13:38

thing after Paul

13:40

. That's not his Right

13:42

. And he and again I'm making

13:44

that up , that is , you know , I'm just using

13:46

it as a technical so

13:49

he knows he shouldn't want that person

13:52

, right , he knows he

13:54

shouldn't lust after , he knows

13:56

he shouldn't lost

14:02

after her to stare

14:04

at her and to be consumed in

14:06

the thoughts . Maybe

14:08

even you know , masturbate

14:11

or do something like that . But here

14:13

he is talking about how his

14:15

members , his hands , his

14:17

body parts

14:19

, his eyes betray

14:22

him . He wants to look away at him , right

14:25

, even though on the inside he

14:29

is fighting into everything he has

14:31

. He knows

14:33

that it's not just . He

14:35

knows that God's law is righteous

14:38

, but his own

14:40

body is fighting him tooth and

14:42

nail . And this

14:44

is all of us to some extent

14:46

, particularly when we find your

14:48

favorite scent pattern . Right , you

14:51

find your favorite scent pattern . This

14:59

is something that you're going to be working through your

15:01

sanctification rest of your life

15:03

. Most of us okay

15:06

, most of us Paul had

15:08

his thorn in the sky that

15:10

he prayed for God to take away and God did not

15:12

. So

15:16

just

15:18

understand You're

15:21

free from the law . You will

15:24

send a . What makes

15:26

you a Christian , what makes your heart true , is

15:28

that sin , when you do it , bothers

15:31

you . You are a bad

15:33

, you are a remorseful fool . You

15:37

understand what that sin

15:39

did not in no longer in a second

15:42

competition to send the most . You

15:46

are repentant . You step

15:48

dog-doodle again , right

15:50

. So again , that is

15:53

what many

15:56

myself include and believe what Paul

15:58

is talking about here . Now

16:00

, tomorrow is going to be a long teaching . Tomorrow

16:04

is Romans , chapter 8 , which many

16:06

believe , including myself , is the

16:08

most important chapter in the Bible

16:10

. All right , so we're

16:13

going to go

16:15

through it . In my mind it's going to take some

16:17

time . I'm going

16:19

to go into deep into the sermon , but we're going

16:21

to . We're going to . We're

16:23

going to pull up our sleeves and go to work in that

16:25

. Romans 7, . Get ready to go into

16:27

Romans 8 . Bring

16:30

your questions , bring your A game . I'm going to put

16:32

on my headset now . That's the case

16:34

. I'm going to set my phone up for any phone call

16:36

and I should

16:38

be prepared to take some phone calls . I'm

16:41

going to show the square feet . There

16:45

we go and

16:49

I'm going to set this up . All

17:04

right , that should be good to go . Yep , connected

17:07

. So I

17:10

hope you guys had a good day . I

17:12

hope your crucible challenge is going

17:14

well . I

17:16

know I made a lot of progress and a lot on

17:18

a lot of fronts today and I was pretty happy with

17:20

that voltage yesterday and today . Very

17:23

productive in the intangibles and non-sexy

17:25

things that

17:27

that get business done . That

17:30

set you up a success going , or

17:33

the other good news that I have is that

17:35

I am now committed

17:37

and back to uploading audio

17:40

versions of the show

17:42

on all podcast

17:44

feeds . So if you want to listen

17:46

to this show instead of rather watching

17:49

it on your favorite podcast

17:51

, go find Christian

17:53

Warrior Mission and please

17:57

watch it there and please

17:59

give us a nice five-star review . We can really

18:01

use it . We've got a

18:03

fair amount on there already , but I know we

18:05

got new people watching . So go to

18:07

Apple Podcasts or your Android people

18:10

I don't even know what you do , but

18:13

go ahead , go to Apple that's what matters

18:15

the most and try

18:17

. That's a nice five-star review . We greatly

18:20

appreciate it

18:22

. So I got a lot of positive feedback

18:24

about the show last night with our guests and my goal

18:27

is to have a guest most nights

18:29

. Now it's holiday season and

18:31

finding people with

18:33

technology that works has

18:35

been challenging , but

18:39

moving

18:43

forward , I am booking out more and

18:45

more and I assume someday

18:47

soon maybe the next 60 days I'll

18:49

probably have a full calendar as

18:52

I get in the rotation . People hear about

18:54

what we do and experience

18:57

a good time on the show and you

18:59

know I was on two shows today . That

19:01

went well , very

19:04

appreciative of both those invites

19:06

, and

19:11

so again , very , very good there

19:13

. So

19:17

we want to talk . So today , the overwhelming

19:20

topic that I talked about

19:22

on the shows was the

19:24

topic of Christian masculinity

19:26

. It seems like that is

19:28

something that's missing in a lot of different ways

19:30

, and particularly

19:33

from the warrior ethos side

19:35

. Now I

19:38

almost wanted to rip warrior

19:40

out of our title because it's

19:42

so overused and inappropriately

19:44

used . It just doesn't

19:46

even mean anything . It's like racism now , like everything's

19:48

so racist . Math is racist . Is racism

19:51

even mean anything anymore , right

19:54

? So warrior has become that and

19:58

warrior means

20:00

so much more than then

20:05

. Hey , yeah , this guy deal like calling

20:08

somebody a warrior who plays a sport

20:10

. I think

20:12

I'm not a fan of that , you know , not

20:14

unless it's like MMA , something

20:17

extremely physical that hurts

20:19

and you can die and all

20:22

that stuff Maybe , but

20:25

warriors don't play games . Warriors

20:29

die , put their lives

20:32

at risk so others may live , and

20:36

that's what a warrior is and

20:38

that is our Lord and

20:40

Savior , jesus Christ , and that is what the church

20:43

has been beating out of us for

20:45

50 plus years Now

20:49

. They want everyone to be this hippie , wussified

20:51

Jesus movement , make

20:56

warrior great again ? Exactly , you

20:59

know everybody wants to . You

21:01

know the hippie Jesus movement after this

21:03

last movie ? Absolutely not , and

21:07

it just reminded me today , over and over

21:10

. It's no mystery to you guys . You know

21:12

we talk about this all the time . Who

21:17

would God honor the most in

21:19

New Testament , the New Testament

21:22

, and in the Old

21:24

Testament ? Who do they honor the most ? David in the

21:26

Old Testament , hard

21:28

like his own , a warrior . But

21:36

in the New Testament it was two blood-soaked

21:38

centurions

21:40

, one God

21:43

himself marveled . I didn't think

21:45

that would be possible if I didn't read it 6,000

21:47

times in the Bible . But God

21:49

marveled at his faith . He

21:53

said he had the greatest faith of all of Israel and

21:56

the first pagans . The

22:00

gospel was preached to first

22:02

pagans . Saved was

22:05

Cornelius , another blood-soaked centurion

22:08

, and all of his friends and household

22:10

. So

22:13

don't tell me we don't have a place in the church

22:16

. Don't tell

22:18

me that aggressive

22:29

alpha males and aggressive warriors

22:32

have no place in

22:34

this , in

22:36

our Christian culture , because that's

22:38

completely untrue and

22:45

so telling to me that when

22:47

God sent Peter to go save the

22:50

Gentiles , he didn't send him to

22:52

a fisherman , he didn't send him to

22:55

a carpenter , he didn't send him to

22:57

a doctor . He didn't send him

22:59

to , you know

23:02

, pick a profession . He

23:05

sent him to a blood-soaked warrior

23:07

, enemy of the people , who

23:14

happened to be a great dude that all of Israel

23:16

loved because his heart

23:18

was circumcised onto

23:21

the law . So

23:29

, you know , I'm a member of a bunch of different groups online

23:32

and I see these people and the you

23:34

know , and again , the doctrine of turning

23:36

the other cheek it's brought up over and over

23:38

again and you have pacifists

23:41

trying to use that like it means something . Pacifists

23:43

, pacifism is a heresy . And

23:46

I put this . Let me show you what I put on

23:49

Twitter today . There

24:04

we go .

24:09

So this is what .

24:09

I put on Twitter today . The pacifist heresy

24:12

has slithered into the modern-day

24:14

church just like Satan

24:16

slithered into the Garden of Eden . It

24:19

has left the church feminized and weak

24:21

, hiding in their churches , praying

24:23

that the culture war will leave them alone . Here

24:26

is a news flash . It

24:28

has destroyed me , that

24:30

being the culture war . This

24:33

destroyed far too many churches and families

24:36

and will not stop . Therefore

24:38

, we must heed the words of Nehemiah 414

24:42

. Today's challenge is call for a renewed Christian

24:44

courage , reminiscent of me , nehemiah

24:46

414 . Let's unite

24:49

in strength and faith , engaging actively

24:51

in our communities , whether we can

24:53

face the cultural challenges with wisdom and

24:55

resilience . And , of course

24:57

, nehemiah 414 , which is my favorite

24:59

verse in the Bible do not

25:02

be afraid of them . Remember the Lord , who is great

25:04

and awesome , and fight for

25:06

your brothers , your sons , your

25:08

daughters , your wives and your homes

25:11

. How

25:14

many of us have given up on all those

25:16

people to pursue happiness ? How

25:21

many selfish men and selfish

25:24

women out there who are

25:26

of the world , who are Christian like

25:28

, who are Christian and name only , have

25:35

given up the fight for their brothers

25:39

, their sons , their daughters , their wives

25:41

or husbands , all

25:50

because we're so distracted and

25:53

lost in self ? Now

25:57

, there's a lot to do . That's not distraction . As

26:00

you guys know , I think 2024

26:03

is going to be one

26:07

of the most challenging years of our lives . It

26:11

has the highest probability of any year

26:13

of something

26:16

catastrophic happening . So

26:23

, yeah , there's a lot to do . Don't

26:28

sacrifice yours or somebody else's eternity

26:31

to do it . That's

26:37

why the 90 days are crucible , is so

26:39

, so important

26:41

. Hitting

26:44

all five blocks . Faith

26:46

check that's

26:50

the Pardon

26:54

me . I'm whole house is COVID ? I don't

26:56

have COVID . I've tested negative twice , but

26:58

here we are anyway . Get

27:05

him with Lord , lord

27:08

to

27:10

family

27:12

, making sure

27:14

that , after glorifying God

27:16

, worshiping

27:19

God , your number one mission on this

27:21

earth is to disciple

27:23

your family . Whatever

27:27

your priorities God , spouse

27:30

, children , everything

27:33

else . Now

27:41

, too many people do it this way Work

27:47

, kids , husband

27:49

and wife . God

27:51

have

27:54

a lot to handle and will not tolerate

27:56

being fourth in anyone's life . If

28:00

things are going hopelessly wrong in your life

28:02

and you can't

28:04

catch a break , maybe

28:09

, just maybe , you have an alignment problem

28:11

, god's

28:14

not going to bless you putting him fourth Again

28:24

. We want to be able and not cane . So

28:36

take everything that I've

28:38

just said . Come back

28:40

to me with your questions . I'm going to put the number up

28:42

on the screen and when we come

28:45

back I'll

28:47

be taking calls , and if anybody wants to call in

28:50

to talk about anything we talked about , by

28:52

all means please do so

28:55

. I'm going to go ahead and we're going to take a quick break .

28:58

Your talk is sponsored by Trident Shield , your

29:01

trusted ally in violence preparedness . Trident

29:04

Shield safeguards your loved ones with expert training

29:06

and consulting . Trident Shield

29:08

defending faith through preparedness , because

29:10

together we save lives .

29:46

All right , now let's get back to the Crucible Challenge

29:48

. You know

29:50

, I've been looking at what people are doing for fundamentals

29:53

and there's been a lot of great stuff on there

29:55

, but I haven't seen

29:57

I don't think any combatives on

29:59

there , like any combatives

30:01

other than me putting combatives

30:04

on there . And I want to

30:06

say that if this

30:08

is your only answer to every problem

30:10

, you're not doing

30:12

it right . You're going to end up

30:14

in jail or dead because you pulled

30:16

this when you shouldn't have . Every

30:24

one of us should know how to hit , meaning

30:26

how to punch , how

30:29

to put someone's lights out . Every

30:31

one of us should know how to be able to choke

30:33

somebody out , like in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu it's

30:36

called the next deal . Every

30:40

one of us should be able to do that . If you're not doing

30:42

that , you don't know how

30:44

to do that . I'm on you

30:46

. The

30:53

world could blow up tomorrow and you've got what you've

30:55

got and you don't have a simple one

30:58

day of training next year training , yeah

31:06

, but , adrian , there's so much more in the mat . You can be hitting

31:08

the bags right now . You can be doing footwork

31:10

. You can be doing core work , right

31:13

, I mean , there's a ton of different

31:15

things that you can be doing , because fighting is

31:17

so all tie

31:20

fasted . Now

31:22

, working on your wind , show you

31:24

, working on your grip strength , because grip strength is

31:26

everything in Jiu Jitsu , but

31:29

working on combatives

31:31

and working on

31:33

the things that support combatives , which can

31:35

be mobility . If

31:38

you're inflexible and you're grappling

31:40

with somebody or you're put in a funny

31:42

position , you're going to blow out your rotator cuff

31:44

right . So again

31:46

, I told you guys about this book . This

31:53

should be your mechanics manual

31:55

or your body period Is

31:59

the most valuable . Got

32:04

a call coming in , hey

32:09

brother how you doing .

32:11

Good how you doing .

32:13

Doing great brother . Good to hear you .

32:15

Good to hear you as well .

32:17

What you got .

32:19

Yeah , so I have

32:22

two things for you . First

32:25

point is back to the turn

32:27

your cheek . When

32:29

did that become a thing and

32:33

why are

32:36

we letting that pass in

32:38

the church ? You're right about

32:40

the masculinity . It's basically

32:43

going out the door and we're letting it

32:45

happen , but how did that get into the church

32:47

? Do we know where it started ?

32:49

Yeah well , there have been pacifists , who have existed

32:52

throughout all time , who have taken that

32:54

turn and the cheek got a thing so out

32:56

of context that they wouldn't do anything

32:58

and they would just lay down and let you kill them . Right

33:01

Again , it's twisted scripture . There's

33:03

twisted scripture everywhere , right

33:05

? When you look at these things , you know

33:07

and I've seen multiple takes

33:09

on this People say it's from

33:12

a woman's slap . Other people are saying

33:14

that the Romans were right-handed and

33:16

what they used to do was whack them

33:18

in a backhanded slap , and that's why they would

33:20

say turn your other cheek , because that's

33:22

what it would be a backhanded slap . Was it insult

33:25

? Right , it was , you

33:27

know . So it was never meant

33:29

to be . Stab me once , stab me twice

33:31

. It was never meant to be . You know

33:33

, to run me through once , run

33:36

me through twice , or cut off my left arm

33:38

, cut off my right arm . You know , and it's

33:40

not like this wasn't afraid to use that language

33:42

. You talked about gouging out your eye if

33:44

it causes you to sit or to cut off your hand

33:46

, right . So

33:49

again , you know where we also look

33:52

to push back on . This is in

33:54

Timothy when he says I

33:56

believe it's Timothy where he says to sell your

33:58

cloak . If you don't have a sword , sell your cloak

34:01

and buy a sword , right

34:03

? You know , and I've seen

34:05

people that I really respect and

34:08

a lot like Garcy

34:10

Sproul's , like twist himself

34:12

into madness trying to say that

34:14

it wasn't a real sword Well , the cloak was real , the

34:16

knapsack was real .

34:18

You know everything was real .

34:19

And on top of that they

34:22

produced two swords , so they were already

34:24

carrying two swords right

34:27

. So they obviously Jesus

34:30

hadn't forbidden them . There was no teaching that we

34:32

missed , where he said you can't have them

34:34

right .

34:35

Yeah , peter , talked about the guy's ear .

34:37

Exactly . You know , and

34:39

you know there's a saying in there

34:42

that some people take

34:44

as an insult , and I'm not so sure

34:46

it is meant to be

34:48

an insult . You know , it's where Jesus said those who

34:50

live by the sword die by the sword . Well

34:53

, if you were to ask me right

34:55

, if I would rather die in my bed of cancer

34:58

for no reason other

35:01

than God's glory , which has got a plan

35:03

for it , or if God offered me

35:05

to go out and a hail of bullets in a battle

35:07

saving the world or

35:09

saving someone's life , what

35:11

do you think I'm going to choose ?

35:14

Or the letter Exactly .

35:16

So is that really an insult ? Live

35:18

by the sword , die by the sword ? I think not

35:21

Right . But

35:24

it wasn't Peter's time to die yet . Was the point

35:26

right ? Peter still

35:29

had a lot of work to do . Right

35:31

, he had to . You know he was going to be

35:33

, you know he had to go out and proclaim

35:35

the word . But

35:37

you know , again , I do not take

35:39

live by the sword , die by the sword , as

35:41

a negative . If anything , it's a compliment

35:44

to me .

35:45

Right , that's

35:47

a very good answer . Appreciate that .

35:49

And no problem , any other questions you got

35:51

. So I mean , yeah .

35:54

The second thing is I don't know if you saw , I guess , colorado

35:56

Dave . I don't know

35:58

if it's going to go to Supreme Court , but it

36:01

looks like it removed them from the ballot .

36:03

It'll get fast tracked to the Supreme Court and

36:05

I think it'll get tossed out , Right

36:07

. I mean , I mean , you know , I mean it's so egregious

36:10

, right . They're like like it's so

36:12

egregious and this only . This ruling today

36:14

only helped Trump , Right

36:17

. Yesterday it only helped Trump . It just only made

36:19

people more fanatical for him

36:21

. The harder they make it for that

36:23

to make it to where we can't choose Trump

36:25

, the more people want to vote for him . Right

36:28

, and I'm not a guy who wants to vote for Trump

36:30

, I'm a dissentous guy all the way . But I

36:32

understand the psychology behind it .

36:35

Right .

36:36

You know . So a

36:40

bunch of liberal judges in a liberal state

36:42

are knocking out . I

36:45

don't want Trump running . What a surprise Like

36:47

. And the thing was is he wasn't even convicted of

36:50

insurrection . You know a riot

36:52

insurrection

36:55

absolutely not the only people who died

36:57

with Trump supporters . Man , like you

36:59

know , I like people when they talk about the sixth

37:01

. They've got the whole . The left has

37:03

the whole context wrong . I

37:05

mean people who are brutalized to

37:07

death with the , with the Trump supporters

37:10

and not anyone else .

37:13

So 2024, ? How

37:16

do you foresee that playing out ? Do you

37:18

think they're going to start burning down cities again ? What

37:21

are they going to be ? What do they call it ? The summer of love

37:23

?

37:24

Yeah , no , if Trump

37:26

, they're going to the first cop

37:28

that makes a mistake . In

37:31

any blue district where they

37:33

can control the narrative , like Minneapolis

37:35

, was George Floyd , right , or somewhere

37:37

around there . The

37:39

first cop who is imperfect is going to be

37:41

crucified and offered up as

37:44

a sacrifice again

37:46

. Right ? George Floyd

37:48

died of drugs and you

37:50

know , and that's the coroner's report says . But there's

37:52

a guy sitting in jail convicted of murder for this

37:54

, who was 100% railroaded

37:57

in a blue state . This is another reason

37:59

why you never live in a blue state . Everyone

38:02

here who lives in a blue hellhole like

38:04

who lives in a blue hellhole right now . You

38:07

can be driving home tonight with

38:09

your family after going to the movies and

38:12

have somebody try to carjack your car

38:14

and you kill them . If you're in

38:16

a blue state and they're a protected

38:18

class of citizen , you

38:20

might be going away to jail for the rest of your life

38:23

for protecting your family , particularly

38:26

if you look like me right Now

38:29

. That's why I will never live in a blue

38:31

state again . I know there are others

38:33

out there who do , but that is the risk of

38:35

it . That also happened in your state

38:37

of Texas with a guy who drove

38:40

through Austin , which is a liberal

38:42

hellhole one of a few

38:44

there where he was driving and

38:47

a BLM protest appointed an AK-47

38:50

at him and he pulled out I think it was a revolver

38:52

and smoked him . He

38:56

went to jail Right . I

39:00

mean anywhere else that would have been good to go , but

39:03

not in a liberal place , not for a BLM

39:05

supporter .

39:08

Yeah , I haven't been to Austin . I don't plan on going to Austin

39:11

. I just heard . It's kind of like San

39:13

Francisco on a smaller scale Almost

39:16

people crapping in the street and just

39:20

a lot of nonsense

39:22

going on there . Yeah , well that's why

39:25

they were in Los Angeles .

39:26

The poop emoji should be the Democrat symbol

39:28

really , because every city they

39:30

run it's the same thing Human

39:34

defecation in the street . I remember

39:36

going overseas and seeing that for the first time

39:38

over there and I'm like I couldn't believe I was seeing it

39:40

in India . It's very common

39:43

. You see it in a lot of places and

39:45

here we have the United States is now

39:47

a common place for people to just relieve

39:49

their bowels anywhere

39:51

they want and no one does anything

39:53

. It's a tragedy , oh

39:56

yeah .

39:59

Well , that's all

40:02

I have for you , Pastor .

40:04

Thank you , man . I appreciate you , my

40:06

loyal caller who never lets

40:09

me down . Who else out there ? wants

40:11

to call in and help out a brother . God

40:13

bless you , my friend . So

40:21

people have to understand right

40:24

. They have to understand that by

40:26

living in a blue state or

40:29

driving through a city

40:31

like DC , if

40:35

anything goes wrong and

40:38

you're on the other side , you

40:41

are screwed . They're

40:43

going to come after you with everything , everything

40:48

. That's

40:51

why you got to move to a red state and

40:55

live in a red community with

40:58

strong sheriffs and governors

41:00

and attorney generals . That

41:09

is what's going to . That's what's going

41:11

to matter if anything bad should happen . You have a home

41:14

invasion or an attempted carjacking

41:16

, and

41:28

the closer we get to the election , the more

41:30

divisive it's going to get . You

41:33

watch after Christmas every

41:35

day . The temperature in the oven is just going to

41:37

get turned up . It's

41:42

going to get hotter and hotter and

41:44

hotter and hotter . To

41:56

where ? On election day ? You

41:58

better not be anywhere near a major metropolitan city . Clients

42:04

of mine who I have in there , I would not even open

42:06

. It

42:09

is going to be that gnarly Now

42:13

in red states with strong

42:16

governors , they'll send in the National Guard and

42:19

that stuff will get put down hard . But

42:24

Boston , new

42:26

York , california

42:29

, minneapolis

42:31

or Minnesota , it's

42:38

going to be hell . So

42:49

again , it brings us back to preparing . What are

42:51

you doing to prepare ? And

42:55

when I look at these fundamental things

42:57

and I'm guilty

43:00

of it too I have , you know , finishing

43:02

a prepper series right now . You

43:05

learn a lot of stuff reading prepper fiction

43:07

. But

43:10

you got to make sure you're doing your dry firing

43:12

. You got to make sure you're doing your firearm maintenance

43:14

. You got to make sure

43:16

you're maintaining your gear Checking

43:20

the expiration dates on your , on

43:22

your pepper spray , fire extinguishers that

43:24

you keep in your car to clear riots , traffic

43:27

obstruction . You're

43:31

rotating your ammo , rotating

43:35

your magazines to save the springs , changing

43:42

batteries on your optics Flashlights

43:44

. So yesterday

43:48

, the other day , I was talking to Adrian about the leatherman

43:50

I like to use and I thought I had my knife

43:53

here , but in the other room , unfortunately . But

43:55

so this is what I use . I use the leatherman

44:00

free and this is all magnetic . It's

44:02

a great piece of kit . I absolutely love it . I use it

44:04

everywhere , every day , on the

44:06

farm . You

44:08

know it's got a nice fixed blade life and

44:11

not that locks in the point , so it can be a weapon if you need to

44:13

. Then

44:15

it's got a serrated one on the other side , which

44:17

is what I use for all my farm work . This is what I use

44:19

for something more serious . You

44:21

know , it's got screwdrivers , I mean , it's got scissors

44:24

, it's got , I mean , just

44:26

everything you could possibly want in

44:28

here and

44:31

um , and it's got a nice fixed blade life Screwdrivers

44:33

, I mean , it's got scissors

44:35

, it's got , I mean , just everything you could

44:38

possibly want in here and

44:41

um , and

44:43

you know , I

44:45

tell everyone of my clients who tries to

44:47

make weapons illegal , like you , have to allow

44:49

these . Allow these , god

44:52

, because these are so useful . Having

44:54

one of these doesn't make you weird , makes

44:59

you MacGyver . It

45:02

might have been a little weird , but you know there's

45:04

nothing you can't do with

45:06

a good , with a good multi tool

45:09

. It makes you handy

45:11

as heck . So

45:14

again , I really like my Leatherman

45:16

free , and

45:19

the reason why they call that is because you can manipulate it all

45:21

with one hand . Because of the magnetic portion

45:23

of this , I have bent

45:25

this clip out , which

45:27

I have not been able to fix yet , which drives

45:30

me insane . So hopefully someday

45:32

I'll be able to get that clip bent

45:34

back in , but for right now it's driving me

45:36

insane and I've

45:39

been like that for like a year . No

45:47

, the other thing I talked about in my EDC

45:49

knife was a bench made

45:52

. Bench made . You know your , your knife should

45:54

be solid . There are disposable

45:56

knives out there and what I mean if your knife's worth

45:58

under 100 bucks is a disposable knife . It's

46:01

a folder that you can use . You can take everywhere

46:04

here . Of course you don't want to keep

46:06

it as long as you can , but you're not worried

46:08

about it . Versus buying a $400

46:10

plus knife You're going to , that's

46:13

going to hurt when you lose it . You

46:20

know . People ask me what do I train people on

46:22

? And when I'm training

46:25

pistol , one

46:27

of the things I train people on is

46:29

I train them on this , this Smith

46:32

and Western revolver , right

46:34

, this seven shot revolver . It's

46:37

357 . So I can take 357

46:40

rounds which have a lot of momentum , and

46:42

a 38 round which has like no

46:44

momentum . And then I can set empty

46:46

chambers so I can watch them anticipating the

46:48

shot . That

46:51

alone really

46:53

helps me fix a lot of people the

46:55

very low round count just by

46:57

staggering my loads . And

46:59

they don't know . You know I take

47:01

the gun , I take it , I set it the way I want . So

47:04

I know what's going on the first chamber , you

47:06

know , and you know when they start it

47:08

with the magnums . When they get the

47:10

other one , do you see them dipping as they're anticipating

47:12

their recoil See

47:17

a chat comment . Yes

47:23

, I carry bear spray in my vehicle . I have

47:25

a two fire extinguishers , one in the

47:27

driver's side door and one

47:30

in the passenger side

47:32

door . I'm getting ready to change those

47:34

over to a tear gas

47:37

pepper spray mix that

47:40

, like SWAT uses , I don't . The

47:42

bear spray is less potent , believe

47:44

it or not , than stuff we use

47:47

on humans , from what I'm hearing . So

47:50

I want the most massive amount

47:52

of suck factor as possible . I'm going

47:54

to use that stuff and

47:59

when you're using pepper spray , sickos

48:02

for every one of you out there . Who knows

48:04

who does this ? I never understood

48:06

why people like lighting their face on fire

48:08

with spicy food . Like

48:11

I said , you know another podcast

48:13

. If you can walk into a Thai

48:15

restaurant in order Thai hot pepper

48:18

spray most likely won't work on you . It's

48:20

the same ingredient , same

48:23

exact ingredient . So

48:25

that's why you want the mace combo

48:27

, because if the pepper spray don't work , the mace

48:29

will , and

48:34

I've seen this in person from one of the biggest whips

48:37

I've ever known . He

48:40

was trembling with fear getting sprayed with

48:42

pepper spray and it didn't work , and

48:44

we all just couldn't believe it , because we're all looking

48:46

forward to him turning into a ball , a quivering

48:48

flesh . But

48:55

no , yeah , when you come and visit

48:58

Adrian , I'll use you and you can tell me which

49:00

one sucks more . Deal

49:04

Adrian

49:06

put . You got to make a big test in which one is

49:08

more potent bed pepper spray or civilian

49:11

spray . I

49:15

need somebody to feel the effects of both

49:17

, so to validate the

49:19

experiment . So if you're willing to do

49:21

that , man , I'm down . I've

49:23

had been pepper sprayed so many times

49:25

. I hope I never , ever , ever get it again

49:27

, ever

49:31

, ever

49:33

, ever , right

49:36

? So

49:40

well , if there are no more Collins tonight , I'm

49:43

going to pray us out and

49:45

we'll call it tonight . We'll wrap up a little early

50:41

workouts and

50:44

opportunities to learn new skills , bend

50:49

relationships and

50:54

make five better financial decisions . Lord

51:05

51:31

I pray for protection of Israel , for Israel

beloved America Turn

51:41

from her sin , hit her knees

51:45

your face and that you would heal her so

51:48

that we would once again become one nation under

51:50

God . Indivisible liberty

51:52

, justice for all , born

51:55
