I'm John Carter in Moscow. 00:00:02.23\00:00:04.60 In Havana, Cuba. 00:00:04.63\00:00:07.27 Now in Kiev, the capital of Ukraine. 00:00:07.30\00:00:10.54 I'm John Carter in Petra. 00:00:10.57\00:00:13.54 Right here in Communist China. 00:00:13.58\00:00:16.44 Reporting from India. 00:00:16.48\00:00:18.61 Hi, I'm John Carter in the Solomon Islands. 00:00:18.65\00:00:21.48 I'm John Carter in Soweto. 00:00:21.52\00:00:24.05 From El Salvador. 00:00:24.09\00:00:26.42 I'm John Carter in Sydney, Australia. 00:00:26.45\00:00:29.56 There's a battle going on. 00:00:29.59\00:00:31.23 And John Carter wants to stop the killings. 00:00:31.26\00:00:33.70 It seems we just don't know 00:00:37.03\00:00:40.27 where another killing is going to take place. 00:00:40.30\00:00:42.20 We've been overseas for three months. 00:00:44.64\00:00:47.04 We get back, 00:00:47.08\00:00:48.68 there's another terrible killing 00:00:48.71\00:00:51.05 on an El Paso, 00:00:51.08\00:00:53.58 22 people are brutally murdered, 00:00:53.62\00:00:56.89 senseless killing. 00:00:56.92\00:00:59.65 And then just a virtually few hours after that, 00:00:59.69\00:01:03.22 there was a killing in Dayton, Ohio. 00:01:03.26\00:01:07.50 One killing that received very little 00:01:07.53\00:01:09.83 coverage was the killing in Orange County. 00:01:09.86\00:01:14.24 Did you hear about this killing? 00:01:14.27\00:01:16.50 That wasn't done with a gun. 00:01:16.54\00:01:19.17 Done with a knife. 00:01:19.21\00:01:22.94 And a man murdered, stabbed to death four people. 00:01:22.98\00:01:27.62 Orange County. 00:01:27.65\00:01:28.98 It's down the road from us here. 00:01:29.02\00:01:30.55 We're just a few miles from Thousand Oaks. 00:01:30.59\00:01:33.09 That's where we've lived for many years. 00:01:33.12\00:01:36.76 And you will know the terrible killing, 00:01:36.79\00:01:38.23 the mass killing that happened in Thousand Oaks. 00:01:38.26\00:01:41.00 Among these young people 00:01:41.03\00:01:42.36 who just graduated from college. 00:01:42.40\00:01:43.73 This is a fact we don't like to talk about. 00:01:48.67\00:01:50.94 I don't like to think about it. 00:01:50.97\00:01:52.47 I'm grandfather. 00:01:55.58\00:01:57.65 I've got children. 00:01:57.68\00:01:59.51 They go to American schools obviously, in San Francisco, 00:01:59.55\00:02:03.15 I'm concerned for my grandchildren. 00:02:03.18\00:02:05.82 Did you know this? 00:02:05.85\00:02:07.72 Your chance of being shot to death 00:02:07.76\00:02:12.16 here in this great country 00:02:12.19\00:02:15.26 is 100 times more than 00:02:15.30\00:02:17.40 if you lived in Great Britain. 00:02:17.43\00:02:21.70 Did you know that? 00:02:21.74\00:02:23.07 A hundred times more, this, 00:02:23.10\00:02:24.71 we have become the most dangerous country, 00:02:24.74\00:02:28.51 not in the world, 00:02:28.54\00:02:32.15 but in the first world. 00:02:32.18\00:02:36.25 In the Western world, 00:02:36.28\00:02:37.62 we are the most dangerous country. 00:02:37.65\00:02:40.72 The topic is "Stop The Killings." 00:02:40.76\00:02:44.23 I guess that's very, very optimistic 00:02:44.26\00:02:46.66 to have a topic like this Stop The Killings. 00:02:46.70\00:02:49.76 I'm going to suggest to you today, 00:02:53.44\00:02:58.61 this is completely politically incorrect 00:02:58.64\00:03:01.08 what I'm going to say today. 00:03:01.11\00:03:04.58 I'm going to say that the solution is basically 00:03:04.61\00:03:08.28 very, very simple. 00:03:08.32\00:03:12.39 But the problem is, it's not very, very easy. 00:03:12.42\00:03:18.23 It's very, very difficult. 00:03:18.26\00:03:22.90 But if we were serious, 00:03:22.93\00:03:26.43 I believe we could stop the killings. 00:03:26.47\00:03:29.84 Well, at least we could stop a lot of the killings. 00:03:29.87\00:03:33.98 This is not a political talk 00:03:34.01\00:03:36.38 is going to be shown on secular stations across America 00:03:36.41\00:03:40.48 and satellite around the world down into Australia. 00:03:40.52\00:03:44.89 Other places too. 00:03:44.92\00:03:48.09 But I want to just to say to you up top, 00:03:48.12\00:03:50.69 this is not a political talk. 00:03:50.73\00:03:54.23 Personally, I've had it up to here, pardon my saying, 00:03:54.26\00:03:59.73 no, I've had it up to here, listening to the same old, 00:03:59.77\00:04:03.61 same old, same old on CNN and the other networks. 00:04:03.64\00:04:08.88 I've had it up to here, same old stuff. 00:04:08.91\00:04:11.35 I believe that 00:04:15.52\00:04:16.85 what we've been doing in America, 00:04:16.89\00:04:19.19 we've been putting a band-aid on a bleeding cancer. 00:04:19.22\00:04:25.36 Now you're not gonna hear this talk on CNN 00:04:28.83\00:04:31.00 and you won't even hear it on Fox News. 00:04:31.03\00:04:33.44 And so I lay it out to you, I open up my heart, 00:04:36.50\00:04:39.57 I'm not going to apologize to you. 00:04:39.61\00:04:42.91 I'm not running for office. 00:04:42.94\00:04:44.95 I don't have to please anybody except God. 00:04:44.98\00:04:50.79 And Beverley, it's my wife. 00:04:50.82\00:04:54.66 I want to start with a couple of texts in the Bible. 00:04:54.69\00:04:57.69 Wanna come to Matthew 3:7, 8, 10. 00:04:57.73\00:05:01.40 And it'll be good if you would return to the text, 00:05:01.43\00:05:03.97 It'll do you a lot of good. 00:05:04.00\00:05:06.10 Matthew 3:7, 00:05:06.13\00:05:08.27 "But when he saw 00:05:08.30\00:05:10.17 many of the Pharisees and Sadducees 00:05:10.21\00:05:12.24 coming to his baptism," this is John the Baptist. 00:05:12.27\00:05:15.21 "He said to them, 'Brood of vipers! 00:05:15.24\00:05:17.31 Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?" 00:05:17.35\00:05:19.38 Hardly a politician, 00:05:19.41\00:05:21.35 he calls the religious leaders a bunch of vipers, 00:05:21.38\00:05:24.45 bunch of snakes. 00:05:24.49\00:05:26.05 And then if you come to verse 8, 00:05:26.09\00:05:30.23 "Therefore bear fruits worthy of repentance." 00:05:30.26\00:05:33.60 And then if you come to verse 10, 00:05:33.63\00:05:38.00 "And even now the ax is laid to the root of the trees." 00:05:38.03\00:05:43.30 Get that. 00:05:43.34\00:05:45.27 "Therefore every tree 00:05:45.31\00:05:46.64 which does not bear good fruit is cut down 00:05:46.68\00:05:48.74 and thrown into the fire." 00:05:48.78\00:05:50.58 John the Baptist said, 00:05:50.61\00:05:52.31 "The axe is going to be laid to the root of the trees." 00:05:52.35\00:05:57.25 We haven't had the courage to lay the axe 00:05:57.29\00:06:00.06 to the root of the trees. 00:06:00.09\00:06:02.99 We talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, 00:06:03.02\00:06:07.36 and policemen are dying. 00:06:07.40\00:06:10.43 Thousands of young people in America 00:06:10.47\00:06:13.03 shoot each other to death every year. 00:06:13.07\00:06:16.00 Nobody talks about it because you can't, 00:06:16.04\00:06:19.54 because we want band-aids. 00:06:19.57\00:06:22.18 The Bible says, "The ax is laid to the root of the tree." 00:06:22.21\00:06:25.95 Now come over to the Old Testament to Isaiah 00:06:25.98\00:06:28.58 48:18-19, 00:06:28.62\00:06:31.22 if you don't mind. 00:06:31.25\00:06:33.19 Isaiah 48:18-19. 00:06:33.22\00:06:35.39 And do something which is good for you. 00:06:35.42\00:06:39.03 Turn to the texts, look at them. 00:06:39.06\00:06:41.73 "Oh, that you had heeded My commandments! 00:06:41.76\00:06:44.57 Then your peace would have been like a river, 00:06:44.60\00:06:47.40 and your righteousness like the waves of the sea. 00:06:47.44\00:06:50.87 Your descendants also would have been like the sand, 00:06:50.91\00:06:54.48 and the offspring of your body like the grains of sand," 00:06:54.51\00:06:57.85 no shooting. 00:06:57.88\00:06:59.21 "His name would not have been cut off nor destroyed 00:06:59.25\00:07:01.95 from before Me." 00:07:01.98\00:07:03.32 The Bible says, "There is a relationship 00:07:03.35\00:07:06.82 between keeping the commandments of God 00:07:06.86\00:07:10.29 and peace." 00:07:10.33\00:07:11.89 And the biggest problem is this. 00:07:11.93\00:07:14.30 Now the ax is laid at the root of the tree, 00:07:14.33\00:07:16.73 America has got away from God and the commandments. 00:07:16.77\00:07:20.77 So the solution quite frankly is quite simple. 00:07:24.17\00:07:29.68 Very recent Time magazine had this as the cover. 00:07:29.71\00:07:33.78 Would you please look at this Time magazine, 00:07:33.82\00:07:38.72 253 mass shootings, 00:07:38.75\00:07:44.69 not in the last 50 years, 00:07:44.73\00:07:47.83 we're two-thirds of the way through the year. 00:07:47.86\00:07:52.70 Two hundred and fifty-three mass shootings Time says, 00:07:52.73\00:07:58.14 "Enough." 00:07:58.17\00:08:00.48 But, of course, it's just talk, isn't it? 00:08:00.51\00:08:03.65 It won't be enough. 00:08:03.68\00:08:06.05 Probably as I'm standing here, 00:08:06.08\00:08:08.25 there's going to be another mass shooting 00:08:08.28\00:08:09.75 somewhere in America. 00:08:09.78\00:08:11.12 This is a far cry 00:08:14.72\00:08:16.06 from the words of the song that we love. 00:08:16.09\00:08:18.13 O beautiful spacious skies, 00:08:18.16\00:08:23.50 for amber waves of grain, for purple mountain majesties, 00:08:23.53\00:08:28.40 above the fruited plain! 00:08:28.44\00:08:30.77 America! America! 00:08:30.81\00:08:32.67 God shed His grace on thee, 00:08:32.71\00:08:34.91 and crown thy good with brotherhood 00:08:34.94\00:08:38.15 from sea to shining sea. 00:08:38.18\00:08:41.28 Oh, beautiful for patriot dream that sees beyond the years, 00:08:41.32\00:08:47.29 thine alabaster cities gleam, undimmed by human tears! 00:08:47.32\00:08:53.66 I guess the person hadn't gone to Baltimore for a while. 00:08:53.70\00:08:59.53 America! America! 00:08:59.57\00:09:02.30 God shed His grace on thee. 00:09:02.34\00:09:06.51 And crown thy good with brotherhood 00:09:06.54\00:09:09.44 from sea to shining sea. 00:09:09.48\00:09:12.41 And every patriot canon should say amen, you see. 00:09:12.45\00:09:17.29 Baltimore is one city. 00:09:20.96\00:09:25.86 Young people just killing themselves. 00:09:25.89\00:09:29.56 And then there are other cities beside Baltimore, 00:09:29.60\00:09:33.10 Detroit, goodness. 00:09:33.13\00:09:36.50 Chicago. 00:09:36.54\00:09:39.67 There's a hate fest every weekend, 00:09:39.71\00:09:41.64 young men are shot to death. 00:09:41.68\00:09:43.95 This doesn't happen in other countries. 00:09:43.98\00:09:46.61 Not at least in the First World. 00:09:46.65\00:09:49.15 It happens in America. 00:09:49.18\00:09:52.45 St. Louis, Washington DC, the capital, 00:09:52.49\00:09:56.76 New Orleans 00:09:56.79\00:09:58.13 and you can go on and on and on. 00:09:58.16\00:10:03.70 God shed His grace on thee. 00:10:03.73\00:10:06.70 I would suggest this to you. 00:10:06.74\00:10:09.50 We need more than money 00:10:09.54\00:10:11.31 and more than another social program. 00:10:11.34\00:10:15.74 Hey, let's get more money poured into this... 00:10:15.78\00:10:19.61 They've been doing that for the last 50 years 00:10:19.65\00:10:23.08 and more people are dying. 00:10:23.12\00:10:25.69 All of our programs that you read about, 00:10:25.72\00:10:28.86 that you hear from the politicians, 00:10:28.89\00:10:31.19 these programs are useless band-aids. 00:10:31.23\00:10:36.00 Oh, you need a band-aid on occasions, 00:10:36.03\00:10:39.27 but not to cover cancer. 00:10:39.30\00:10:42.97 What I'm going to say now, 00:10:43.00\00:10:44.34 you won't hear on CNN and you won't hear it anywhere, 00:10:44.37\00:10:47.71 I think except in some spiritual centers. 00:10:47.74\00:10:52.05 Billy Graham said it. 00:10:52.08\00:10:55.38 Here it is. 00:10:55.42\00:10:56.75 "In the Bible, 00:10:56.79\00:10:58.89 great national disasters 00:10:58.92\00:11:01.56 were always preceded by spiritual rebellion." 00:11:01.59\00:11:07.33 Always, always. 00:11:07.36\00:11:10.53 When Israel sinned, 00:11:10.57\00:11:12.10 God removed His hand of protection and allowed... 00:11:12.13\00:11:16.67 He didn't send the Philistines. 00:11:16.71\00:11:18.14 He allowed the Philistines, the Ammonites, the Syrians, 00:11:18.17\00:11:23.61 the Assyrians, the Babylonians, and the Romans to harass 00:11:23.65\00:11:28.98 and destroy God's professing people. 00:11:29.02\00:11:32.45 They will be the people of God. 00:11:32.49\00:11:36.52 Now, let me tell you this, as Charles Stanley said, 00:11:36.56\00:11:40.13 and he was right, he said, 00:11:40.16\00:11:42.33 "We should not have won the World War II." 00:11:42.36\00:11:47.34 Oh, no, but where the guy, no, we don't know. 00:11:47.37\00:11:49.74 We weren't ready. 00:11:49.77\00:11:52.21 The Germans had the greatest war machine 00:11:52.24\00:11:54.31 in the history of the world. 00:11:54.34\00:11:55.68 We won the World War II 00:11:58.51\00:12:02.05 because the hand of God was over America. 00:12:02.08\00:12:05.22 You seen the movie on Midway? 00:12:08.69\00:12:12.53 Just a total miracle. 00:12:12.56\00:12:16.43 God had His hand over His people. 00:12:16.46\00:12:20.64 God does not send disaster. 00:12:20.67\00:12:23.24 You know what He does? 00:12:23.27\00:12:25.07 He moves His hand. 00:12:25.11\00:12:26.51 Look at Galatians 6:7-8. 00:12:29.58\00:12:33.21 Galatians 6:7-8. 00:12:33.25\00:12:37.09 The greatest, almost the greatest man 00:12:37.12\00:12:40.19 has ever lived besides Christ said these words. 00:12:40.22\00:12:43.53 "Do not be deceived, God is not mocked, 00:12:43.56\00:12:49.16 for whatever a man sows that he will also reap." 00:12:49.20\00:12:54.44 You get what you sow, if you sow wheat, 00:12:54.47\00:12:56.17 you're gonna wheat, if you sow tares 00:12:56.20\00:12:57.97 you're gonna get tares. 00:12:58.01\00:12:59.34 "But he who sows that his flesh 00:12:59.37\00:13:01.48 will of the flesh reap corruption, 00:13:01.51\00:13:03.85 but he who sows to the Spirit 00:13:03.88\00:13:05.75 will of the Spirit reap everlasting life." 00:13:05.78\00:13:08.12 This is a principle you can't get away from. 00:13:08.15\00:13:10.69 The great friend I think it was, 00:13:13.56\00:13:14.96 I think it was Huxley, who said this. 00:13:14.99\00:13:19.16 He said at the end of each day, God calls for the ledger book, 00:13:19.19\00:13:24.87 goes through the ledger book and He... 00:13:24.90\00:13:30.51 points out and dolls out 00:13:30.54\00:13:34.18 and dishes out what we've earned. 00:13:34.21\00:13:37.25 You can't get away from, 00:13:40.42\00:13:41.75 whatever a man shows that shall he reap. 00:13:41.78\00:13:45.45 There was a man I'm told walking through penitentiary 00:13:45.49\00:13:48.32 a number of years ago. 00:13:48.36\00:13:49.96 And the prisoners there 00:13:49.99\00:13:51.49 were selling burlap bags. 00:13:51.53\00:13:57.17 Some people call them Hessian bag. 00:13:57.20\00:13:58.97 They're sowing up these burlap bags, 00:13:59.00\00:14:02.30 and the man said nonchalantly sowing, 00:14:02.34\00:14:06.54 one of the prisoners smarter than the rest said, 00:14:06.57\00:14:09.08 "No reaping." 00:14:09.11\00:14:12.31 Why because we're reaping. 00:14:12.35\00:14:16.15 And so there's a law, you can't get away from it. 00:14:16.18\00:14:21.32 Going to church is not gonna get you away from it. 00:14:21.36\00:14:24.39 Being pious is not gonna get you away from it, 00:14:24.43\00:14:26.70 being bad is not gonna save you from it. 00:14:26.73\00:14:29.26 Whatever you sow, you're going to reap. 00:14:29.30\00:14:34.24 It's a law that nothing can change. 00:14:34.27\00:14:38.64 Listen to these truths. 00:14:38.67\00:14:41.28 I'm suggesting today 00:14:41.31\00:14:44.28 we're reaping what we have sown. 00:14:44.31\00:14:46.08 God raised up America to do a special work, 00:14:49.38\00:14:52.25 to be a special place, 00:14:52.29\00:14:55.52 to be a haven especially 00:14:55.56\00:14:57.59 for the victims of religious persecution. 00:14:57.63\00:15:00.30 Does anybody still remember the Pilgrim Fathers, 00:15:00.33\00:15:05.37 and why they came to America? 00:15:05.40\00:15:08.34 I've heard some people, 00:15:08.37\00:15:10.54 I would say very ignorant people say, 00:15:10.57\00:15:13.01 "Oh, America was raised up 00:15:13.04\00:15:15.28 as an atheistic place, no church." 00:15:15.31\00:15:19.61 No go. No, no. 00:15:19.65\00:15:22.38 That's terrible, terrible ignorance. 00:15:22.42\00:15:25.05 The thing that you and I have to battle today in America 00:15:25.09\00:15:29.52 more than anything else is ignorance. 00:15:29.56\00:15:33.06 That's why Wesley I think said, 00:15:37.87\00:15:40.90 "A reading people will be a knowing people." 00:15:40.94\00:15:45.84 Remember the words of Emma Lazarus, 00:15:45.87\00:15:48.54 "Give me your tired, your poor, 00:15:48.58\00:15:50.65 your huddled masses, yearning to breathe free, 00:15:50.68\00:15:55.18 the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. 00:15:55.22\00:16:00.39 Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, 00:16:00.42\00:16:04.43 I lift my lamp besides the golden door." 00:16:04.46\00:16:09.46 Now some of you will know 00:16:09.50\00:16:11.57 that originally I believe in that, 00:16:11.60\00:16:13.54 I believe in that philosophy because I'm a Christian. 00:16:13.57\00:16:18.01 But this was written originally 00:16:18.04\00:16:20.58 for the victims of religious persecution. 00:16:20.61\00:16:24.91 People came to America to get away from a corrupt, 00:16:24.95\00:16:30.15 persecuting church. 00:16:30.19\00:16:32.55 That's the fact. 00:16:32.59\00:16:34.62 So they came here 00:16:34.66\00:16:37.89 so that they could breathe free. 00:16:37.93\00:16:39.96 They could either worship God or not worship God 00:16:40.00\00:16:42.43 according to the dictates of their conscience. 00:16:42.46\00:16:45.20 America became a beacon of hope around the world. 00:16:45.23\00:16:49.97 Freedom from the persecution of church and state. 00:16:50.01\00:16:52.97 A lot of people say, we need to get church 00:16:53.01\00:16:55.38 and state together again. 00:16:55.41\00:16:56.75 Once you do that, you have Antichrist. 00:16:56.78\00:17:01.55 They came here to get away 00:17:01.58\00:17:02.92 from the persecution of church and state, 00:17:02.95\00:17:05.05 freedom to experience life, liberty, what does it say? 00:17:05.09\00:17:08.36 Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. 00:17:08.39\00:17:15.10 The Declaration of Independence, 00:17:15.13\00:17:16.67 one of the greatest documents 00:17:16.70\00:17:18.10 in the history of the human race says, 00:17:18.13\00:17:20.17 "We hold these truths to be self-evident," 00:17:20.20\00:17:22.90 there are some things you don't have to prove, 00:17:22.94\00:17:26.21 "that all men are created equal." 00:17:26.24\00:17:28.44 That means everybody, "We are all created equal 00:17:28.48\00:17:32.55 that they are endowed by their Creator." 00:17:32.58\00:17:36.79 If there is no God, there is no man. 00:17:36.82\00:17:41.66 And if you believe that there is no God, 00:17:41.69\00:17:45.19 then there is nothing at all, there is no law. 00:17:45.23\00:17:49.40 And there is no life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. 00:17:49.43\00:17:55.50 I say once again, today we are dealing 00:17:55.54\00:17:57.71 with a tremendous onslaught of ignorance, 00:17:57.74\00:18:03.85 "that they are endowed by their Creator 00:18:03.88\00:18:05.71 with certain unalienable rights," 00:18:05.75\00:18:08.28 we say inalienable, 00:18:08.32\00:18:09.65 but they said "unalienable rights 00:18:09.68\00:18:12.25 that among these are life, liberty, 00:18:12.29\00:18:14.39 and the pursuit of happiness." 00:18:14.42\00:18:15.99 Listen to this. 00:18:16.02\00:18:17.36 This is important, because you can't make a mistake here. 00:18:17.39\00:18:20.90 God wanted America to become 00:18:20.93\00:18:22.56 the greatest country in the world. 00:18:22.60\00:18:26.37 As the American people followed the ways of God, 00:18:26.40\00:18:30.07 but America was not to become a theocracy. 00:18:33.41\00:18:36.71 You know what a theocracy is? 00:18:36.75\00:18:39.25 It comes from the Greek word Theos which means God. 00:18:39.28\00:18:42.82 A theocracy is where you have a union of church and state, 00:18:42.85\00:18:46.86 and many people in America today 00:18:46.89\00:18:48.86 say hallelujah, this is what we want. 00:18:48.89\00:18:51.13 We are going to bring back the laws of the Bible, 00:18:51.16\00:18:53.70 and we will have the Senate and the Congress 00:18:53.73\00:18:56.36 enforce the laws of the Bible. 00:18:56.40\00:18:58.83 Well, if you do that, you have Antichrist 00:18:58.87\00:19:00.57 because that's what Antichrist is. 00:19:00.60\00:19:03.51 Antichrist is a combination of church and state. 00:19:03.54\00:19:07.51 Look at Revelation 17:3, 4, and 6. 00:19:07.54\00:19:13.05 Revelation 17, "So he carried me 00:19:13.08\00:19:15.82 away in the Spirit into the wilderness, 00:19:15.85\00:19:17.65 and I saw a woman," 00:19:17.69\00:19:19.02 that's the symbol of the church, 00:19:19.05\00:19:20.79 "sitting on a scarlet beast," that's the state, 00:19:20.82\00:19:23.43 "which was full of names of blasphemy, 00:19:23.46\00:19:25.63 having seven heads and ten horns. 00:19:25.66\00:19:27.70 The woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet, 00:19:27.73\00:19:30.57 and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, 00:19:30.60\00:19:34.94 having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations 00:19:34.97\00:19:38.41 and the filthiness of her fornication. 00:19:38.44\00:19:41.64 I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints, 00:19:41.68\00:19:44.11 persecuting, 00:19:44.15\00:19:46.01 and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. 00:19:46.05\00:19:47.98 And when I saw her, 00:19:48.02\00:19:49.35 I marveled with great amazement." 00:19:49.38\00:19:51.45 That describes Europe in the Dark Ages. 00:19:51.49\00:19:57.29 That's why America, God bless you, 00:19:57.33\00:20:00.70 that's why America was founded 00:20:00.73\00:20:04.93 to get away from the apostate church. 00:20:04.97\00:20:10.94 Whenever you have the union of church and state, 00:20:10.97\00:20:13.81 you have persecution. 00:20:13.84\00:20:17.18 America was founded by people 00:20:17.21\00:20:19.41 who wanted to be 00:20:19.45\00:20:21.12 breathing free air 00:20:21.15\00:20:22.98 and to worship God. 00:20:23.02\00:20:26.45 They wanted a church 00:20:26.49\00:20:29.96 without a pope and a state without a king, 00:20:29.99\00:20:35.50 freedom. 00:20:35.53\00:20:38.70 That's why Americans have become a great people. 00:20:38.73\00:20:42.77 But you can't legislate morality, 00:20:42.80\00:20:46.04 you can't make people good. 00:20:46.07\00:20:49.68 Some people that got big lobbies now 00:20:49.71\00:20:52.05 in Washington religious lobbies, 00:20:52.08\00:20:54.85 trying to get the Senate and the Congress to pass laws, 00:20:54.88\00:21:01.49 religious laws to make people good, 00:21:01.52\00:21:04.39 but you can't make people good. 00:21:04.43\00:21:06.83 God makes people good. 00:21:06.86\00:21:09.06 You see? 00:21:09.10\00:21:11.57 You better get this because as I say, 00:21:11.60\00:21:13.97 we're drowning in a delude, 00:21:14.00\00:21:15.80 in a flood of gross ignorance 00:21:15.84\00:21:18.31 and many people who claim to be Americans today 00:21:18.34\00:21:21.38 have no idea about what America means. 00:21:21.41\00:21:26.51 America was founded by people getting away 00:21:26.55\00:21:28.68 from the apostate church. 00:21:28.72\00:21:32.12 But while I do not believe in a theocracy, 00:21:32.15\00:21:38.13 and while I believe this is the essence of Antichrist, 00:21:38.16\00:21:43.13 it was God's plan 00:21:46.17\00:21:47.50 that Americans would be a righteous blessed nation 00:21:47.54\00:21:51.74 because of something that happened in their hearts, 00:21:51.77\00:21:55.44 not something that happened in Washington. 00:21:55.48\00:22:00.32 It was God's plan that in their hearts 00:22:00.35\00:22:02.42 would be enshrined two great laws. 00:22:02.45\00:22:05.82 We've gotten away from that. 00:22:05.85\00:22:07.79 A lot of politicians who say they're Christians, 00:22:07.82\00:22:11.23 a lot of Christians who say they're Christians 00:22:11.26\00:22:15.00 have gotten away from the two great laws. 00:22:15.03\00:22:17.77 If you have these great laws, you wouldn't have killings. 00:22:21.24\00:22:24.31 Matthew 22:36-39, the words of Jesus, 00:22:24.34\00:22:28.81 Matthew 22:36-39, "Teacher, 00:22:28.84\00:22:32.51 which is the great commandment in the law?" 00:22:32.55\00:22:35.58 Jesus said to him, 00:22:35.62\00:22:37.49 'You shall love the Lord your God, 00:22:37.52\00:22:40.26 with all your heart, with all your soul, 00:22:40.29\00:22:43.63 and with all your mind.'" 00:22:43.66\00:22:46.76 This is the first and great commandment 00:22:46.80\00:22:49.53 and the second is like it, 00:22:49.56\00:22:52.03 "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." 00:22:52.07\00:22:57.97 Who does? 00:22:58.01\00:23:00.81 It was the plan of God 00:23:00.84\00:23:02.44 that America 00:23:02.48\00:23:06.35 would be people by a righteous, 00:23:06.38\00:23:10.15 God fearing people who read their Bibles, 00:23:10.19\00:23:15.26 and who had the law of God enshrined in their hearts. 00:23:15.29\00:23:21.53 Love God with all your heart, all your soul. 00:23:21.56\00:23:24.80 Most people say that's easy. 00:23:24.83\00:23:27.14 Second part is more difficult. 00:23:27.17\00:23:29.34 You should love your neighbor as yourself. 00:23:29.37\00:23:30.87 That means no racism. 00:23:30.91\00:23:33.34 A lot of racism today in America. 00:23:33.38\00:23:36.71 I say it to our great shame, 00:23:36.75\00:23:38.55 a lot of racism in America today. 00:23:38.58\00:23:41.85 A lot of hate speech. 00:23:41.88\00:23:45.19 The Bible says no hate speech, because our religion, 00:23:45.22\00:23:49.19 our politics, our sexual orientation. 00:23:49.22\00:23:52.89 I'm going to say some things about human sexuality today, 00:23:52.93\00:23:57.10 but I want to tell you something. 00:23:57.13\00:24:01.24 Hate speech is evil 00:24:01.27\00:24:07.14 not because it's not legal, it is legal. 00:24:07.18\00:24:11.18 It's guaranteed by the First Amendment. 00:24:11.21\00:24:15.52 But hate speech goes entirely 00:24:15.55\00:24:18.45 against the commandment that says, 00:24:18.49\00:24:20.56 "You shall love your neighbor 00:24:20.59\00:24:23.63 as yourself." 00:24:23.66\00:24:28.53 And no striving after wealth to the detriment of the poor. 00:24:28.56\00:24:33.27 No poor wages. 00:24:33.30\00:24:35.37 Love your neighbor as yourself. 00:24:35.40\00:24:37.57 Now a question we need to ask ourselves 00:24:41.14\00:24:42.88 as we sit here today 00:24:42.91\00:24:44.25 in this beautiful air-conditioned studio 00:24:44.28\00:24:45.95 in Southern California is this. 00:24:45.98\00:24:47.65 Is America a better place today 00:24:47.68\00:24:49.72 because of all the tweets that are going around America?
