(Day 3) Understanding the Culture with William Federer

good morning [Applause] good morning to you come on in come on in remember the deal get close it has to look good we um we suffered tonight from no children's ministry uh frank turek they just ended their series frank turrick and his his you guys know who frank turricus frank turek and his uh course he he's been teaching here this week in other rooms regarding apologetics he's uh great coco has been here uh sean mcdowell they've all going through courses and dr frank came on out and used our campus for their uh school and we're delighted for that they're all i think by now they're all celebrating uh their completion over at lucille's uh eating barbecue so so today how many of you are old-time calvary chapel souls you go way back how many of you go away go way back like like how many of you go back to the tent days any of you really the tenth how many of you go back to what later became maranatha village remember marinate the village really wow bunch of old people in here yeah remember uh at maranatha village or what was calvary chapel at the time which the tent came afterwards right people just sit in the people used to sit in the trees to listen to pressure check teach just like zacchaeus climbed up in the tree but um a lot of people don't realize that you know chuck smith was a four square uh pastor four square minister uh graduated which i think it's called now life bible college is that life is what is it life pacific uh but way back in those days so uh pastor chuck graduated from there as a young man and and uh fast forward um he met k smith i may have it off a little bit but i think they knew each other about three weeks they got married and it's interesting because pastor chuck under the four square denomination pastors had two years of sermons you had 20 you have yet two years of sermons and at the end of those two years that pastor and his family would move off to their next assignment to the next city now the next state and i don't know what kind of idea that is but it's kind of hair brained if you ask me but just when a pastor gets gets to gets to know his people he's got to go but be that as it may that's that's what he was in and um and then but k smith began to see at that time in the 60s people walking around stoned out of their minds on drugs stinky unshaven unbathed a lot like young people today homeless they were called hippies then and the culture had written them off but chuck was pastoring uh a church in fact i don't know if you know this or not but the la one one of the times when pastor chuck was here when we were in the old building uh he was going to speak he came in and he taught on a wednesday night first john and so he came out early and he said jack i want to go to joey's you know joey's bbq i want to go to joey's i love it and we were like you like joey's barbecue and he he ate that up but then after that he said um let's go take a drive i want to drive by the church i used to pastor here in chino hills i said what did you know chuck smith used to pastor a church in china house is the four square church in la serranos i was shocked i was shocked and then it was kind of cool because over the years chuck just had a really precious heart toward us in serving jesus here he had an affinity with this area but um but when they hit when the hippie movement was in full swing and they they lived down by the beach and they k smith she saw these hippies and she started picking them up and bringing them home to the house and he said what are you doing and she says these kids need the lures and so he starts teaching them the bible he said he wasn't happy about it and at what point they literally had blankets and stuff in bathtubs and bathrooms where hippies were sleeping in bathtubs and hallways kay said we got to get as many hippies we have to get a bigger house we got to get more hippies in our house in our home she did chuck you're the bible teacher you teach them okay it was and so the rest became history the hippie movement the jesus people movement began to break open in southern california it spread up into northern california people up in the haight ashbury area stoned out on drugs began to receive christ people began driving miles even out of state to come to church services at calvary costa mesa the church began to grow and crowds began to come and uh they started to get nice chairs and carpet and stuff and but these hippies kept coming and so one of the board members was playing the role of an usher one night and a hippie came in with no shoes and dirty feet and the guy said you got to get you got to get some shoes on man i mean come on and the guy in his shoes they hit me with nothing and pastor chuck smith got wind of that and he said i want all the carpet torn out of this church now if they can't come in with dirty feet i want the carpet out is that awesome and um case started encouraging chuck you need to talk about the holy spirit you need to talk about the gifts of the holy spirit you need to make sure that these kids are spirit filled with the spirit of god and chuck began to teach the baptism of the holy spirit people people getting filled with the spirit of god words of wisdom and knowledge and callings and ministry evangelism pastors started coming out uh hippies like greg laurie maniacs like raul reese got saved uh just on and on it went it was absolutely amazing a lot of people don't realize that that great movement that wound up making world history uh just turned organized religion in america upside down and a lot of the pastors that were jealous honestly these great doctors of theology which by the way chuck smith was he just never said so he had his doctorate in theology but he didn't tell anybody but all the big doctors and all the big names they were telling people i know when i met lisa her parents said you're not taking her to that church are you well it was the only church i knew and i didn't know anything about christian weirdness at that time i took lisa to church one night there and she just that's it bible is like alive and so a lot of people didn't like what was going on god did because by the time chuck smith died he was he had lived long enough to see more than 2 000 churches come from his one work and no other minister in the history of the church lived a generation length of time to see so many churches planted you could see that by the way you can view that the university of southern california did a documentary on those amazing days and achievements well i say all of this to you tonight because the one that was the real catalyst uh for people like me being here tonight and some of you oldies who raise your hands was k smith chuck's wife and this morning she went to glory with to see she not only saw jesus she saw chuck and noah and abraham could you imagine so uh wonderful amazing woman of god if you can get her teachings especially i tell you women get a hold of k smith's women's bible study teachings they're just off the charts young women today need to hear them but we celebrate the graduation of k smith today who who's entered into glory she's no longer in pain and she's rejoicing no no she's dancing before the lord how great is that i hope listen i hope we all join her soon the way the world's going that'd be fantastic be fantastic um so listen i hope you've been blessed these last few nights i know that your brain your minds have been blown away so our our featured guest speaker tonight wraps up his three-day series i'm honored to tell you that pastors have asked if pastor jack can you put a bug in his ear will he come up to idaho and do this will he go to northern california and do this we go out to colorado and do this this is what william federer does just ask him just ask him and uh we rejoice um it will become evident in a moment that he he instructed many of note plato for example socrates uh all sat under william federer i'm convinced einstein no doubt gleaned tremendously from i'm kidding but we have in our presence tonight a man who loves jesus and he has the faith of a child and yet he has the intellect of a giant and make sure you catch up on all these three nights give a warm welcome tonight to william federer thank you thank you god bless you you thank you well i love your pastor and his wife lisa and every one of you and i want to thank you especially for coming out tonight i didn't think i did a good job last night and i thought nobody's going to be here tonight friday night so so you blessed me by showing up and um anyway so tonight i'm going to talk about the history of slavery and the abolitionist movement and i think you'll find it interesting and i've got lots of information that i can't fit into the times so i may skip past a bunch of slides and hopefully that won't be too distracting but uh with your permission i'll go ahead and get started so slavery existed from the beginning of recorded history babylon persian greek greece and so forth even the beginning of writing sumerian cuneiform on clay tablets in the mesopotamian valleys all right take a stick poke it in clay that's the beginning of writing so the very first things that were written have slaves right 2050 bc the word for king is lugol free person is lou male slave is arad female slaves jimmy i mean so there's always been slavery uh here's anyway like i said i could go through here's hammurabi he's a contemporary of abraham and he said okay there's god king male nobles wives of the of the male nobles and the poor then the slaves so there's always been slavery and uh here's one hammurabi's code says that they're slaves slave auctions slaves are tattooed with their owners names and then here's hammurabi's code law number 282 if a slave says to his master you are not my master if they convict him his master shall cut off his ear and then china in the ancient china actually in the shang dynasty second millennium bc enslaved neighboring states used captives for ritual sacrifice and uh there's a word uh in the shang endow the dynasties jiamin which means base or debtor and so they had slavery and anyway joseph was sold into slavery by his brothers and then egyptians had slaves and obviously the israelites and the gibeonite deception instead of uh joshua having would kill them because they had tricked him into making a treaty uh joshua says okay we're not going to kill you but you will be water carriers and chop wood as a class of people so that was in a sense like slavery and um then india they have a caste system and the highest is the brahmana they're near divinity and the lowest is the untouchables and their job is to clean the sewers and even if they do a really good job they can never graduate uh and so forth ancient greece about 40 of athens was slaves and uh then the romans captured uh you know julius caesar was gaelic wars went all through europe and captured people and brought them back into rome and the people that he captured were slavs that's where you get the word yugoslav czechoslovakia slovakia and the word slav meant glorious one it was a name of a people group but the romans captured so many of them and gave them away as permanent servants that the word slav got the connotation of a permanent servant and of course we pronounce it slave and then you had diocletian and then jesus the movement to get rid of slavery started with jesus and he um therefore all things whatsoever you would that men should do to you do ye even so to them for this is the law and the prophet so if you don't want to be a slave you shouldn't own a slave uh i thought it was interesting some stories that we're all aware of that we don't really think of but the most popular greek orthodox saint is saint nicholas and the greek orthodox tradition was that um he had uh decided to the the pietas movement remember i talked about that yesterday um that he decided he was going to serve the lord and give away all his money and join a monastery and but he wanted to give away the money anonymously so god would get the glory and not him and so he would sneak into town and throw money in the window of poor people and the famous story was a a merchant was bankrupt and the creditors were going to take his three daughters and you know like repo but only they'd probably have a life of um you know horrible slavery and prostitution probably and so nicholas here's the problem in late one night throw some money in the window providing the dowry for the girls to get married and so they don't have to be sold into slavery and so that uh became the idea of saint nicholas visiting at night time and then they threw the money in the window and supposedly landed in a shoe or stockings that were drying by the fireplace and we celebrate that tradition and uh here's the it says he provides a dowry for three girls so that's where st nicholas is throwing the money in the window and and then constantine stops the persecution of christian and then slavery begins to diminish and then in the fifth century invading hordes overrun the roman empire and they enslaved the captives and then a famous story that we're familiar with is patrick so britain was a roman colony from the time of julius caesar all the way up into the fifth century and then attila the hun is scourging europe rome has to pull all of its legions back from the frontiers and britain's left unprotected and that's when marauding bands come and capture people and sell them to slavery and so patrick was kidnapped and sold into slavery in druid ireland and then he escapes and then he goes back as an adult as a missionary and uh he converts 300 000 people and so forth but it started off with him being a slave so patrick was a slave for six years in druid ireland and then you had uh patrick wright's what's considered the first anti-slavery document so he gets ireland all saved but then there's a british king named coroticus who is capturing irish that patrick brought to christian faith and he's taken them and making them slaves and patrick condemns this guy and says you're selling the bride of christ into a brothel this is what patrick writes the sheep around me are torn to pieces driven away by these robbers by the orders of the hostile-minded croticus so forth uh ravening wolves that devour the flock of the lord you sell them to foreign nation that has no knowledge of god you betray the members of the body of christ and so forth anyway then islam comes along and they enslave because muhammad himself owned slaves muhammad owned black slaves in arabic there is one word for black person and slave it's the same word it's abd or abeed abed abid and so every black person the muslims would call him slave it's just the same word and so they enslaved an estimated 180 million africans in the 1400 years of islam muhammad was white there are hadiths that when he lifts his arms to pray they see the whiteness of an arm his armpits and somebody was on his donkey and it rubbed up against muhammad he says i saw the whiteness of the prophet's thigh and another hadith says some people came to visit muhammad they said he is the white man reclining on the couch and muhammad owned black slaves and he sold them and so it's impossible that there's never been an abolitionist movement in islam because it would be considered an insult to muhammad now there have been some uh that wanted to move away from that uh like ataturk in turkey wanted to have a secular state uh but as far as the fundamentalist muslim countries uh that's their dilemma because if they criticize owning of slaves or criticizing muhammad and uh solid i remember the third crusade he got richard the lionheart and he's got his brother king john is running england remember robin hood sherwood forest time and so richard is over there fighting solomon and they uh he almost takes jerusalem but doesn't um and they they broke her to let the christians out of jerusalem and uh saladin lets everybody that can ransom their life out but about 15 000 don't have money to ransom their life and he sells them into slavery and twice as many women were sold in arab muslim slave trade than men and they had slave markets all timbuk2 where the canoe meets the caravan the niger river was a big arab slave trading port um khartoum in sudan the zanzibar coast tanzania uh there's hundreds of muslim slave markets where they would sell africans and uh anyway unfortunately they would um have the men work and take care of the harems and they would uh castrate him and so forth um even david livingston the scottish missionary to the congo would write about going through the jungle and stumbling across uh 500 africans shackled together being forced to march 500 miles to the coast and if they were walking too slow they'd slow everybody down because they're shackled together they'd just shoot him or kill him he says he could tell where the slave trails were by looking for the vultures circling and he says if anything more important than discovering the source of the nile river if my revelations can get rid of this monster that hangs over africa of the arab muslim slave trade and jedediah morris wrote the first geography books for america and he writes the island of madagascar has several petty savage kings of its own both arab and negro who making war on each other sell their prisoners for slaves and so forth and then you have the vikings and they had boats with low keels and they would go up every river in europe into russia all these places where people thought they were safe and they'd get off their boats and they'd kill the men and throw the women over their shoulders and sail back to norway sweden and denmark and so they had slavery uh and then but the captured christian women would have to have children to these vikings and they would raise the children to be christian and so after a couple generations norway sweden and denmark became christians so ladies you did a good job there and um and then so slavery uh did um when ataturk set up the modern republic of turkey he did want to secularize it so they um ended that for a period so anyway uh europeans they were captured by the muslims and sold into slavery and there were entire catholic orders called the trinitarians the head of the order was called the ransomer and they would collect arms and donations and go under a white flag to north africa to ransom your friend back and then vincent de paul was captured about the same time the pilgrims or the jamestown is being founded in america he's captured he's made a slave and um he eventually witnesses to one of his master's wives and she nags the husband to listen to this guy and they let him go and he sneaks back to europe and he starts an organization a charity to raise money at church to ransom back guys like himself who had been in the muslim slavery and then he starts the first hospitals and um he has an order of uh the sisters of charity of saint vincent to paul and they run all these hospitals across europe the the portuguese they so columbus when the muslims conquered the land routes to india and china he set sail with a sea route in 1492 but in 1498 bosco de gama made it around from portugal around south africa to goa india and opened up trade that way unfortunately he decided to bring back some slaves and so portugal got involved in the slave trade and then pre-columbian america had slaves the uh talking with pastor uh jack that the uh first one's over first columbus's first journey he met the the peaceful indians they were called aerowax and then on his second journey he's got uh 17 uh ships with 2 000 get rich quick uh people that they land on an island and they see human bones cooking in pots and uh they're like columbus you didn't tell us about this we thought it was all wonderful and uh found out that they're caribs and they had come up from south america and they would raid the islands at night time and take the women and and eat them and they'd take the boys and they would eat them and then anyway won't get into all of it but the the spanish word for a cannibal at the time was related to the word carob or caribbe or piranha so basically caribbean sea had the connotation of a cannibal sea and then um and then the uh the aztecs uh the reason that cortez with just 500 men was able to defeat defeat them was because the surrounding tribes helped cortez because they were tired of giving up their young men and women to be taken to the top of the pyramids and have their hearts ripped out and then their bodies rolled down and people would cannibalize them and uh the cortez's men wrote stories about this and for a while for centuries people doubted it but just a few years ago they were digging and doing repairs to the old buildings and cathedrals in downtown mexico city and they got down way down the basement and they've uncovered these whole areas of thousands of skulls and and a lot of them are babies and so they're not captured in war they were anyway so uh you already had dinner so i'd be telling these stories you know guys sort of like hearing these stories and ladies don't don't and so i'd be the table and i said my wife's face we're eating dinner don't talk about this and um so the north america wasn't it a beautiful place before the uh europeans came well the comanches of texas owned slaves the creeks in georgia owned slaves they europe and northern california owned slaves the pawnee the calmeth ahead they all did they i i talked to somebody that had been a a missionary to uh the dakotas and he talked about their their history that uh every summer the whole tribe would relocate down by the cliffs uh by the river and to hide the tribe because the men would go off to raid another tribe to take their women but while they're gone another tribe would raid their traffic their women and it was sort of a anyway uh aristotle taught uh alexander the great so he got socrates talked plato plato taught aristotle aristotle taught alexander the great and aristotle taught taught alexander that the greeks were superior and the the other ones were barbarians and it was okay to enslave the barbarians and so that's one of the reasons alexander the great conquered everything because he mentally thought that he was superior and they weren't um but this is typical you had just about every nationality had an equivalent of this um the inca empire in a sense everybody in the incan empire was a slave everybody was employed by the state and the head of the state was ottawa and he was a delegate of the sun god and so uh but it's it's a natural human tribalism that uh you have you know ancient uh in american history rather the hatfields and the mccoys right these are two families that they just kept you know for centuries and and then you have uh you know cubans and haitians and the pharisees samaritans you know they wouldn't go through that all the samaritans they were bad and um i was even in texas one time and the big deal is football and one town will hate the other town because of football team rivalry and it's like there's this natural tendency toward tribalism the gospel comes along and it shakes things up it says no no all men are created equal in the image of god and god is not a respecter of persons that everyone is to be treated the same and um so so columbus he's he takes four voyages and he he's convinced he's this close to china he's trying to fit what you know marco polo had gone to china in the 1200s across the gobi desert the china silk road and and his book uh was hand written before they had the printing press and they would copy it copy it all and it became a bestseller marco polo's journeys it was nicknamed ill millionaires which means the million lies because they said you know i mean naked holy men in india it's like yeah right you know and then they'd have fields of cloth and and he evidently hadn't seen coal before he's like these burning rocks in china but it was cold and uh so so columbus knew there was china and he knew some rudimentary geography and so he was trying to fit the caribbean geography into what he had thought was that the china and the the far east and the you know um so he uh on his second voyage he's got these 2 000 get rich quick guys and he leaves his brother in charge and he's doing some more exploring and then he gets back and some of them had mutinied and they went off and took a lot of the natives as captives and columbus writes a letter to the monarchs in spain saying i need help and this jealous bishop named fonseca uh convinces the king to replace columbus with a guy named bob adilla and they um so bobbadilla shows up in uh in cuba and puts columbus in chains and sends him back in the hull of a ship and chains and of course he gets back the king and queen take it off but they're not in a hurry to send him on another trip but meanwhile um so they enslave more of the natives and there's a guy named bartilla medellis casas and he was a slave raider he would raid the islands and he'd take the indians captive and they basically set up a feudal system in america like in europe so europe you have the feudal lord and his job was to you know run this uh plantation so to speak you know with all the people and he would consider them his servants and so they set that up in the new world and said okay this is my encomienda this is my and they would make uh the the native americans as slaves make them work in mines dig for gold and then with a lot of the european diseases there was a lot of dying and so bartoloma de las casas uh converted so he's a contemporary of martin luther so martin luther's doing the reformation over in europe and bartolome de las casas he goes and he hears a sermon and he says the you know the voice of the crying out in the wilderness and um and he convicts him that he's a sinner uh taking all these slaves and so he repents and he decides to become a priest and then he spends the rest of his life lobbying to end the enslavement of native americans and he gets a little plantation going where the the the native americans are all farming and becoming successful and then they get raided by the other ones and they're killed and they wipe the whole thing out and and but he even does a debate with a spanish guy named sepulveda there's a street somewhere out here named that and um and you know what the debate was about whether or not the native americans had souls and sepulveda said that they were not fully human they really didn't have souls so it's okay to enslave them and bartolome de las casas said no they're fully human just like you are they have souls and it's wrong to enslave them and they've made a movie about about that called the controversy of valadolid and um so finally bartillo my deal says cassius is successful got the king of spain got the poke to make decrees to stop the enslavement of native americans and this is wonderful but somebody said well if we can't enslave them where can we get slaves and someone said africa and that began the african slave trade to the new world so there's two threads that trace through history greed in the gospel you will always have people motivated by greed and they're the ones that sell people into slavery take land from indians uh grow opium in india and ship it into china right that's what the british did talk about being involved in drug trafficking the government was doing it and uh and those that are motivated to vote for candidates they think that will help their pocketbook or give them a welfare check even though they may be standing for abortion right but you always have people motivated by and you always have people motivated by the gospel and they're the ones that go into villages and dig wells and start medical clinics and go help people and and so you always have these two threads greed in the gospel and they cut through that cuts through each and every one of our hearts every day we're faced with that decision are we going to do what's greedy and what's helpful to us now or are we going to do the gospel and walk in love and walk in forgiveness and so um it's the human condition so now that you you don't enslave native americans the portuguese and spanish and then eventually the dutch and the british and french begin to go to the muslim slave markets and buy slaves and begins to fuel this and then you had different tribes would conquer other tribes and then they would sell them and so forth and and notice on the right side of that map they're being sold from the zanzibar coast over to india and arabia there's no europeans doing that right that is just 100 percent arab muslim slave trading going on and um right you can see it on the side there on the right side of the map so um they were brought to the new world primarily to brazil then the caribbean and cuba they worked on sugar and coffee and cocoa plantations and more african slaves were brought into brazil than to any other country an estimated 4.9 million were brought by the portuguese only 500 000 were brought to north america primarily work on cotton plantations and um let's see then there is another chapter we're get sort of talking about the human condition is england was catholic and then henry viii decides to split and start the anglican church and then he has a daughter named mary who wants to make it catholic again and she's married to the king of spain philip and she dies but philip says hey i was married to the queen i should take it and so he wants to take back and he does the spanish armada right then it's sunk then he does another armada and then one time he lands in ireland he goes well you guys are catholic in ireland and we're catholic in spain and let's team up together and invade england and the british attacked back and it's called the battle of kinsale in 1601 and the british win and so the spaniards sail away but the irish can't sail away and so the uh during this time about 500 000 catholic irish are killed and another 500 000 are sold into slavery and on plantations in the caribbean and in virginia and they're treated harshly because of religious animosities there's a book sean o'callaghan to hell or or barbados however from 1625 onward the irish were sold pure and simple s slaves there were no indentured agreements no protection no choice they were captured and originally turned over to shippers to be sold for profit and because the profits were so great generally around 900 pounds of cotton for a slave the irish slave trade became an industry in which everyone involved except the irish had to share in the profits and um one of the pilgrim ships in 1625 the pilgrims had saved up 800 pounds of beaver skins and sent it back and their ship was captured by muslim pirates in the english channel and the crew was taken to morocco and sold into slavery so in morocco you had a muslim sultan named mullais mal and he had captured over 25 000 europeans and they were building him his palace at mechanized and he had hundreds of wives and a record 1042 children um and but there were mostly white women that he had captured from different rating parties and so forth and uh and squanto so he agreed in the gospel the pilgrims were religiously motivated but you had some of the other ones that weren't and they would go along the coast of america lure some naive indians on board and then lock them below deck and go over to spain and sell them into the slave markets and one of those was of squanto so he was captured and some monks found out about it and they rescued squanto and gave miss freedom he hitchhikes his way back to england and he lives and works in england for like a dozen years and then he finally finds a shipping business that takes him to newfoundland and another one drops him off there at plymouth only to find out his entire tribe is dead he's wiped out by a plague and uh he's living with another tribe and then the next spring is when the pilgrims uh are there and squanto walks out of the woods and he he speaks to them in perfect english oh you guys from england yeah i used to live there oh yeah you know the saint paul's chapel down on war street oh they have that pub yeah oh here i grew up here i know this place is like the back of my hand and so william bradford says that squanto was a special instrument sent of god for their good beyond their expectation he showed them how to catch fish saw them how to plant corn showed them how to catch beaver did you know it took 40 years worth of beaver skins for the pilgrims to pay off that boat ride anyway but he he rescued them so the the spiritual application is sometimes we go through painful times right i mean here all of his life when we get back to his family and they're all dead talk about disillusionment and depression and discouragement but out of that pain he ended up rescuing and saving all these pilgrims and so sometimes when you go through pain and it looks hopeless and you wonder where is god in it all that trust the lord through it and he will turn it around where you will be able to minister to people in a way that nobody else can and touch their heart and save their lives even for eternity and so 17th century progressed the african slave trade increased dutch french english and the first african slaves were brought to virginia 1619 a dutch ship they had so we're starving and they had some slaves and they traded them for supplies and the slaves were originally indentured servants and every one of them was freed after seven years and then you have some of the freed slaves owned slaves and one of them was the story of uh anthony johnson and uh john castle so anthony johnson was an african from angola arrives in virginia as a slave after his seven years he's freed and he becomes a tobacco plantation farmer and he has acreage and he has a number of slaves and one of them is john cassoer and after seven years john cassar expects to be freed so he walks away and goes working on another farm well anthony johnson brings a lawsuit and wins to make john cassoer a permanent slave so the the first permanent by law uh was anthony johnson from angola owning john kassor and uh again sad chapter but we're talking human nature and it's fallen and it's selfish and you need to people need to be born again i use it as a software analogy you're a spirit mind and body your mind is like a super fancy computer it's more than that but it's at least that and your body's like the computer case which makes it silly for people to argue over what color the computer cases imagine people saying hey red phones are better than green phone just like uh it doesn't matter what color the phone is what matters is what apps are on it doesn't matter what color the computer is it's what software is on it doesn't matter what color somebody's skin is it's what software is running in their brain right is it the gospel love your enemies pray for those that hurt you do unto others as you would have them do whatever you do to the least things my brother and you've done it to me or is it the default setting that you you mentioned by a computer got a default setting well the default setting for our human software is selfishness right and um so the battle is who gets to load the software on the next generation's brains right instead of saying sending critical race theory people into the schools we need to send evangelists into the schools get the kids born again and then teach them that god wants them to do unto the least of these what you do unto the lord right and um so england uh during the middle ages there were no companies it was a sin of usury to buy to to pay or receive interest so there were no companies if you want to do something big like sail around the world looking for spices you had to hit up a rich guy or a king sir walter raleigh personally spent 30 000 pounds silver trying to initially settle jamestown or roanoke virginia and he and he lost it all so nobody wanted to do it but then they invented companies and where and then the dutch were the ones that started the dutch east india company so anybody you know baker and butcher candlestick maker could invest money in a boat going to indonesia when it came back full full of nutmeg or cinnamon you got paid a profit and if you wanted to sell your interest in the boat while it's at seat you would go down to the amsterdam stock exchange and then if the boat sank or was captured by the muslim pirates or whoever else that's when the dutch invented insurance companies right and so then the british decide they're going to do companies now there are companies it's not anybody it's just the rich people sort of pool their money but it's um still a company and the king found out that if he gave some rich guys a monopoly on trading with you know russia with the muscovy company or the british east india if he gave a one set of guys a monopoly then he would let them bring their goods back to england and pay him a profit this way he didn't have to risk any money he didn't have to get involved at all if it goes belly up and nothing happens he didn't lose anything but if they make money he gets a percentage and so he started the british east india company and then the virginia company that started and then off of the virginia company you got the massachusetts london company the pilgrims but then they they started the royal african company and yes they bought slaves in africa and the king got a part of it and they brought them to the new world and so the royal african company was founded in 1672 brought an estimated 100 slaves to the new world and the king stopped every effort of the colonies to stop slavery so you had quakers and others trying to stop slavery in their colonies and the king said no and he would sabotage their efforts some of the indians in america would own other indians and some of the the later some of the cherokee choctaw and so forth they actually owned african slaves and um there was actually in 1842 a black slave revolt on a cherokee indian territory and 300 slaves tried to escape to mexico so now how are you going to do that you've got you know a cherokee owning africans and again it's the human condition of selfishness that needs to be uh reprogrammed william penn settles pennsylvania and two years later some of these quakers draw up the first document to end slavery in america 1688 it's called the germantown petition they even have a historical marker for it first protest against slavery here 1688 home of the tunds kunders eloquent protest written by a group of german quakers signed by pastorius and three others it was preceded by 92 years of pennsylvania's passage of the 92 years later they passed the first state abolition law so a quaker in philadelphia is anthony benezette and he starts a school to teach black children and then he writes a book on the horrors of the slave trade and it begins to be read by all the leaders in america and as they read it they turn away from slavery so today more people are becoming pro-life well back then it was more people are becoming against slavery but it was a growing movement and you would have some people that were slave owners and they read anthony benson's book and then they decided to stop being slave owners and want to work to free the slaves and so thank god they went through this transition uh so anthony benezet in 1766 wrote warning to great britain on the calamitous state of the enslaved negroes that slavery contradicted the pre-precepts of the example of christ bondage imposed on the africans is absolutely repugnant abhorrent utterly from the christian religion and then he founds the first anti-slavery society first anti-slavery society in america was founded by christians quaker christians and um and then ben franklin ended up becoming the president of it patrick kennedy writes this on the evils of the slave trade 1773 i take this opportunity to acknowledge receipt of anthony benson's book against the slave trade i thank you for it i will not i cannot justify it justify slavery because he had owned slaves and he gives us i can't justify it anymore it's wrong and so he proposed in the virginia legislature a bill to end the importation of slaves into virginia and it passed and so jedediah morris wrote the first geography history book in america in october of 1786 an act was passed by the virginia assembly prohibiting the importation of slaves into the commonwealth upon penalty and then we're now free from britain and you have the northwest ordinance and seven states come out of this land and the federal government says no slaves it says uh neither shall there shall be neither slavery nor involuntary servitude in the said territory slavery was on its way out in the constitution they said that no more so the first draft of the declaration of independence the coup d'etat so it's jefferson listing all the reasons we're rebelling against the king and the last one the biggest one is the king of england has captured and enslaved a people from foreign lands that have never offended him and transported them against their will many of them dying in the transportation vither and the king has stopped every effort of the colonies to end this exerable commerce and human kind i mean it was it was really it was it was these are items listing why we were rebelling against the king because he was doing all these ungodly things and they had decided that the declaration of independence needed to be unanimous and south carolina and georgia said uh we don't know if we can go along with that and they rushed in and said the british just invaded new york and everybody in the continental congress like panics and they said okay okay well let's just do this declaration without the slavery part and we'll worry about that later how we wished they would have gotten rid of it right then and started the country off on the right foot well slavery was on its way out but then eli whitney invents the cotton gin so cotton i don't know if you've been to south carolina or there's areas when you go there when it's cotton season the whole entire field is white i mean it's sort of amazing to look at it's like just an ocean of white and uh but those little pods have these little black seeds and it's really time consuming to take them out and uh but when eli whitney invented the cotton gin there's this thing that would have these little teeth that would pull the seeds out and boy now cotton becomes a big crop and what they thought slavery was on its way out now with the cotton crop becoming so an expensive or a moneymaker slavery starts growing again and but there is this movement so marquita lafayette who helped during the revolution he is against slavery and so france when they do their revolution they get rid of slavery except on their plantation of haiti they should have gotten rid of it everywhere they were so every all the everybody in that was a slave in france was freed but not haiti it was it was their sugar it was the richest colony of any european colony in the new world the amount of sugar and the amount of money that came from haiti it was the most of any colony it was anyway so um so then there was a slave rebellion on haiti and the french spent 10 years trying to stop it and hundreds of thousands of people died but but anyway marquita lafayette was one of the good guys that wanted to get rid of slavery and he actually had an idea to says after the war lafayette returned to france joined the french abolitionist society of friends which were the quakers of the blacks and advocated for the end of the slave trade and equal rights for blacks and then uh lafayette corresponds with washington and george washington writes the scheme which you propose because he was going to buy an island plantation in caiman and or cayenne and then free all the the slaves so washington encourages him the scheme which you propose as a precedent to encourage the emancipation of the black people of this country from that state of bondage in which they are held is striking evidence of the benevolence of your heart i shall be happy to join you in so laudable a work but will defer going to detail of the business till i have the pleasure of seeing you so washington had six plantations he begins to make them as paid hired labor and he dies before he's able to complete that but in his will he does immediately free william lee who had fought with him in every single battle during the revolutionary war and william lee actually saved his life a couple times and he gave him a pension of 30 for the rest of his life with the option of remaining at mount vernon because he had injured his knee and he chose to stay there and he was buried there and washington says in his will to my mulatto man william calling himself william lee i give immediate freedom i allow him an annuity for 30 during his natural life which shall be independent of the victims and clothes this i gave him as a testimony of my sense of his attachment to me and faithful service during the revolutionary war now why didn't washington free all of his slaves well they were intermarried with the slaves that were part of his wife's family that he didn't have the legal ability to free and then the other thought was that it was if they were freed in an area that it was not free to be free they could be captured by somebody else who made a slave and they wouldn't have any recompense and so it was um it's not a defense of that but it's an explanation so he frees the rest of his slaves on the death of his wife and so he says upon the deceased of my wife it is my will and desire that all of the slaves which i hold in my own right shall receive their freedom again and we wish they would have all gotten it straight you know someday i was thinking uh that um maybe in the future they'll want to pull down a statue of everybody that was pro-abortion they'll realize somewhere in the future that it really genuinely is a brand new human being at the moment of conception and all these politicians say they think oh well i'm pro-choice and i want everybody to love me if they're gonna say pull that stat this guy was for killing babies they'll take his statue out of the capital and so forth now richard allen started the ame african methodist episcopal church and george washington gave money to it ben franklin gave money benjamin rush one of the signers of the declaration gave money and so richard allen spoke at a eulogy for george washington after he died and he says he has watched over us and viewed our degraded and afflicted state with compassion and pity his heart was not insensible to our sufferings and so it was a positive message there and um anyway so we'll get past washington some of the other founders were against slavery in the atoms and um you know richard bassett was a signer of the constitution and he converted from being a um traditional anglican to an on-fire methodist so the methodists go to uh john wesley and he was a preacher and then following him was george whitfield and it was considered the the anglicans were considered the real strict a religious type and the methodists at this period of time were considered the enthusiastic you know emotional and and uh they were sort of looked down upon so richard bath becomes a methodist and he frees all of his slaves and he pays them his hired labor and even rides in the carriage with them on sunday to hear the black preacher he goes to church with him and another is an anti-slavery leader rufus king and he goes to harvard and fights in the revolution and rufus king sign of the constitution and let's see here um he says i hold that all laws or compacts imposing any such condition as slavery upon any human being are absolutely void because they are contrary to the law of nature which is the law of god john jay helped draft new york's first constitution and he proposed it abolished and jay writes to livingston and governor morris that there should be a clause against the continuation of domestic slavery john jay helped found the new york state society for promoting manu mission which is freeing of the slaves and he files lawsuits on behalf of the slaves and jay writes to benjamin rush i wish to see all discriminations everywhere abolished and that at that time may soon come when all our inhabitants of every color and denomination shall be free and equal partakers of our political liberty and so we're seeing that the abolitionist movement to growing movements are like the pro-life movement and it didn't start in the ottoman empire it didn't start in arabia it didn't start in india it didn't start in china right you got the emperor and 5 000 years and he's he's on top and people it started with christians in america wanting to get serious about following jesus's teaching john jay helped found new york's african free school and supported financially he even bought slaves in order to immediately free them he says i purchase slaves and manumit them and free them jay was appointed by george washington to be the first chief justice of the supreme court and uh anyway as the second governor of new york he signs act for the gradual abolitionist slavery and uh and then he starts a a bible society and uh newspaper editor horace greeley 1854 says to chief justice john jay may be attributed more than to any other man the abolition of negro bondage in this state um let's see here then you got britain and william john newton john newton was a slave trader he was a real angry young man and his dad was in the navy and so the dad sort of arranges for him to follow in his footsteps to be a cabin boy on some boat but he um uh he had a girlfriend and he dilly-dallied too long and showed up at the port late and he didn't make it on the british ship but then he gets impressed onto uh that means like they catch him and they put him on another ship and then he's like really a troublemaker and they like trade him to another trip he's like a real troublemaker long story short he's on a slave trading ship and the slave traders picking up slaves from africa he leaves john newton on the slave plantation in africa and he becomes a slave to the slave traders i mean he was like really bad and um and then he gets free from that and he's like cussing and and he's in all you know anyway um somebody gives him a book thomas aquinas imitation of christ and then he reads it then he's on a boat and lightning strikes and the storm and he said he prayed for the first time and then he ends up getting out of that goes back to britain and he uh wants to go into the ministry and they said no you're a slave trader you you but he said he studies studied and then he they give him a little perish out in the in the countryside and that's when he writes hymns and he wrote amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me one was lost but now i'm found i was blind but now i can see and he admitted that he was the wickedness of the wicked but god saved his soul and so there's a young british parliamentarian named william wilberforce and he uh ends up getting saved and he thinks well i'm going to drop out of of the parliament and become a preacher and john newton says no stay in there stay in the government you can do more good in the government and so william wilberforce ends up spending the rest of his life advocating to end slavery right so first he had to end the slave trade and he knew all the parliamentary rules and he said picked one day where there was like um horse racing going on and so all everybody says oh there's nothing going on in parliament let's go out and watch the horse races and he has just the right number of people in there so that he can put forth a bill and pass it and it's the bill to end the slave trade in the british empire but what about the people that are slaves so he spends another 30 years of his life to finally get the all those that are slaves freed and so this is going on about the time that the second great awakening and he writes this you might choose to look the other way but you can never say again that you did not know and uh proverbs says rescue those being led away to death restrain those from stumbling toward the slaughter if you say behold we did not know about this does not he who weighs hearts consider it does not the one who guards your life no will he not replay repay every man according to his deeds it's like oh i didn't you know i'm not paying attention to the abortions or or the the slaver that's still going on you know there's more slavery today than any other time in world history and a whole lot of it is in africa in the boko haram and the niger maritania sudan and they have the muslim slave and then the sex trafficking and then uh in india they have what's called generational indebtedness where the fam some ancestor got in debt and to work it off they have to work on the farm but because of the the interest there's no way and the kids are born uh with their parents debt and they work their whole life and they die and the debt is passed on to the kids and so there is slavery still so 1807 british stopped the importation of slaves well guess what in 1807 thomas jefferson signs the act for america to stop importing slaves thomas jefferson signed that he was president and then 1828 the democrat party is founded by andrew jackson who owned slaves and then there's the second great awakening going across america and you have uh different preachers that say you got to show some fruit of being saved and you got to do things and so they would start societies temperance societies to stop all the drinking prison reform health and education for women's rights so forth and abolition of slavery so the modern abolitionist slavery movement started out of the second great awakening revival well-known americans louisa may scott susan b anthony henry ward beach they're all against slavery lots of names and william lloyd garrison uh said the right to enjoy liberty is inalienable let us invade it uh to invade invade it it is to usurp the prerogative of jehovah every man has a right to his own body to the products of his own labor to the protection of the law and to the common advantages of society it is piracy to buy or steal a native african and subject him to servitude surely the sin is as great to enslave an american as an african so by this time we're getting close to the civil war population uh in the u.s of slaves has grown to four million and we have two parties in america the democrat party pro-slavery and andrew jackson and the whigs now that's not necessarily because they wore the whigs but it goes back to britain they were the opposition party to the king and so you had the whigs in america that were sort of the opposition party to what was going on but by this time the whigs were more of a big tent party and they weren't really standing for anything so the democrat party in a sense was pro-choice regarding whether or not you should own slaves and the other party was the whigs and they um became such a big tent party that people started leaving it starting other parties called the free soil party or the no-nothing party that's an interesting name and um so um though many wigs were against slavery they took a weak stance wanting to be in the big tents and so um again the abolish movement was not started by khalifs in arabia or hindu brahman in india or zarz in russia or ottoman sultans or the ashanti which was a tribe in um africa that was not just selling other africans into slavery but selling them for sacra human sacrifice and this ashanti tribe they had all these sacrifice grounds okay this is when we we kill people to cleanse the grave when when a chief dies and this is where we kill people when it's a new moon we're having a celebration and this is where we i mean they had all this the whole thing was in and they would sell oh you need some slaves for your sacrifice okay here um anyway so these other different dynasties and so forth all had slavery and the abolitionist movement was founded by christians in america notably the quakers anthony bennett and so forth and the methodists with john wesley who hated it and then the second great awakening preachers and then in england john newton william wilberforce charles finney uh second great awakening preacher starts oberlin college and he graduates mary jane patterson the first black woman to graduate from college and he has his oberlin college be a stop on the underground railroad so they'd sneak slaves out of the south uh to the north and eventually to canada and now new territories are coming in to america we got the louisiana purchase doubling the size of the country uh 827 thousand square miles and then florida comes in and then texas and then oregon territory mexican secession and so the the country's got new territories that are coming into states and so the southern states realize that if these states if this territory comes in as free states they can vote to outlaw slavery and then they're gonna have to give up their slaves and they don't like that and so what do they do they want to hurry up and send people into these territories so they'll come into the union as slave states and so during this time you have the kansas kansas-nebraska act and um there's the democrat president millard fillmore and uh he pushes through the fugitive slave law which is what which is if a slave escapes from the south and goes north if you're a citizen of the north you have to help return them and so there were whole states that refused to obey the federal government the federal government would come in catch a slave and and the local sheriff say you're not going to keep him in my jail and then there were other ones that the whole jury would say he's innocent and they would be so upset and and they wouldn't enforce the federal mandate well isn't that interesting so you had a pro pro slavery democrat senator from illinois named stephen douglas and he proposed that kansas have the free choice as to come into the union as a free state or a slave state let them decide and so you have all these slave owners from the south flooding into kansas and so it's called bleeding kansas and they set up two legislatures and they would like fight each other and kill each other and and it was really bloody and um then uh anyway uh here's ohio they have an anti-slavery movement and so this is 1841 dramatic trial within these walls contested whether a runaway slave could be extradited from ohio and returned to the south judge samuel bancroft ruled that ohio's extradition law was unconstitutional and nice to have people saying that some laws are unconstitutional then you have a preacher and this is henry ward beecher and he has he's like the most popular preacher in america and he is against the fugitive slave law and you know what he does he uh raises money at church to buy people's freedoms he actually bought the chains that john brown wore when he was in jail and he drug him across the podium when he was preaching and he stan stomps on him and he actually has a slave auction at church now it's not to sell a slave but he has somebody standing in and all the church is like bidding and raising money and they raised 900 and with that money they bought a girl's freedom her name was pinky and then afterwards she goes to the church and she thanks the church for buying her freedom and uh modern-day ministry that does that is christian solidarity international and uh eric mataxis and others are promoting this where you can give money and this money will be used to buy africans out of slavery right now today and henry ward beecher's sister is harriet beecher stowe and she wrote the famous novel uncle tom's cabin and communities insisted on jury trials before the alleged fugitive could be taken away some juries refused to convict and anyway but one of the big ones is um joshua glover so let me get to him joshua glover was a slave and he made it all the way to wisconsin and the fugitive slave law signed by democrat president millard fillmore uh you had a slave catcher catch joshua glover and put him in the milwaukee wisconsin jail and you had about 5 000 white wisconsins storm the jail and free joshua glover and here's the historical marker rescue of joshua glover josh gross will run away slave was fought freedom and rascine in 1852 1854 his missouri owner used a fugitive flayback to apprehend him 1850 law permitted slave catchers to cross state lines capture him escaped glover was taken to milwaukee and in prison word spread about governors glover's incarceration and a great crowd gathered around the jail demanding his release they beat down the jail door release joshua glover he eventually was escorted to canada and um anyway so uh i think it's interesting here's what the newspaper the sauk county standard said in 1854 an estimated 5 000 white republicans stormed the jail right there's the um free joshua glover free joshua glover now two days after these white wisconsins free joshua glover they go to rip on wisconsin and they form an anti-slavery party called the republican party [Applause] and the historical market says the glover incident helped galvanize abolitionist sentiment in wisconsin the case eventually led to the state supreme court to defy the federal government by declaring the fugitive slave law unconstitutional so the republican party original platform was to eliminate slavery and polygamy so in 1856 it adopts its first party platform the convention of delegates are opposed to the extension of slavery into free territory with our republican fathers we hold it to be self-evident truth that all men are endowed with the inalienable right to life liberty and pursuit of happiness and that the primary object and ulterior design of our federal government were to secure these rights to all persons our republican fathers abolished slavery in all our national territory the northwest ordinance remember i talked about that already it becomes our duty to maintain this provision against all attempts to violate it for the purpose of establishing slavery we deny the authority of congress to give legal existence to slavery can you imagine a party saying it is both the right and the imperative duty of congress to prohibit in the territories those twin relics of barbarism polygamy and slavery now polygamy what's that well that's where a guy can have lots of wives so here you had the republican party founding by saying marriage is one man and one woman and to eliminate slavery anti-slavery republicans organized in other states and they were aided by church members congregationalists presbyterians methodists here's one another savior society in michigan was held the the society met at the first presbyterian church and michigan held the first state republican convention then indiana did and then ohio did and then new york did and then they've had the first republican convention the the first republican convention pittsburgh 1856 called on americans to what resist and overthrow the present national administration of democrat president franklin pierce we're going to resist an overthrow and uh as it is identified with the progress of the slave power to national supremacy and they had their nominated convention they selected john c fremont to be the first presidential candidate he lost but nixon then won the next time around now this is interesting this is the first african baptist church in richmond virginia and in 1865 it hosted the first republican state convention in virginia virginia's first republican convention was held in the first african baptist church and 1857 supreme court seven of the nine are democrats justices they decide that dred scott was not assistant but property and um i actually served for years on the dred scott heritage foundation and uh they uh successfully um uh were able to put a statue of dred scott and his wife harriet at the foot of the courthouse in st louis missouri the old courthouse that they were that he was sold on now there's a statue of him there um lynn jackson is the uh woman who's the great great granddaughter of dred scott and so she has that up and um anyway roger chaney that decided the dred scott case was put on by democrat andrew jackson and kaney wrote this in his dred scott decision that slaves are so far inferior that the negro might justly and lawfully be reduced to slavery for his own benefit talk about racism and then 1856 pro-slavery democrat democrat preston brooks sneaks up on the abolitionist republican senator charles sumner and beats him nearly to death on the floor of the u.s capitol right charles sumner had given a speech he says that slavery is the mistress of the south and you know all this stuff he's like and and uh and so the next day all the the democrats show up with pistols and it's like okay you know so uh let's see here by those if you're not familiar dred scott had been a slave taken with his master to illinois wisconsin um but he didn't read so he didn't know the newspapers that he could have just walked away from his master because those were free states and then when he gets back to missouri he has some friends that help him sue for his freedom and one of them is henry blow a republican congressman whose wife started the first kindergarten in the united states and my um anyway my dad's uh was a historian and he uh did the historical marker in cronulla missouri and that's where the blow family lived and so he put that on the marker um so lincoln he didn't believe that we should honor the dred scott decision he says we think the dred scott decision is erroneous we know that the court that made it has often overruled its own decisions and we shall do what we can to have it overrule this so imagine the supreme court making erroneous decisions and then in his inaugural address he says if the policy of the government on vital questions affecting the whole people is to be irrevocably fixed by the decision of the supreme court the instant they are made the people will have ceased to be their own rulers so we're in charge right not them they're our servants and so we have the amen i thought this was interesting prior to the civil war the country was divided geographically from north to south so you had the radical republican north that said slavery is wrong ended now all right abolitionist societies underground railroads and so forth moderate republican north it says slavery is wrong but we got to transition out of it slowly over time you want to make sure that they can support themselves before you push them off the plantation and the practical neutral that didn't care about that they just care about jobs and economy and checks and so forth and then the moderate democrat south that said slavery's wrong but it's been here for centuries just treats your slave nice and then the extreme democrats out that said slavery is good let's expand it to all these new western territories that are coming into the union and the uh so let's go through those real quick radical republican north slavers wrong in it now moderate north transition of it out of it over time practical neutral they cared only about jobs finances moderate democrat south wrong but live with it extreme democrat south should slavery should be expanded i thought it was interesting those same categories are today with the pro-life so you have the pro-life republicans abortions wrong end it now then the establishment rhino republicans take your time and then the practical neutrals only care about welfare checks and jobs and economy and the pro-choice democrats it's the wrong but you know live with it and treat have it be rare and safe and so forth and then the extreme pro-choice democrats they want it to be expanded they want you to pay for it even the little sisters of the poor that you know take vows of chastity you know and then they want to use the united nations to push it around the world and reagan noticed the similarity that i just showed you he wrote in conscience of the nation lincoln recognized that we could not survive as a freeland when some men could decide that others were not fit to be free and should be slaves likewise we cannot survive as a free nation when some men decide that others are not fit to live and should be abandoned to abortion i mean it's geographic right you're two inches over the border from um you know kentucky into illinois and you're free you're two inches over the border from illinois into canada your your property you're two inches outside of the room you're a citizen you're joined just in the room your property you can you know reagan said whenever i hear anyone arguing for slavery i feel a strong impulse to see it tried on him personally [Applause] so lincoln issues the emancipation proclamation and some consider that an overreach because it's a proclamation it's not a law so then he turns around and he spends a whole lot of effort to pass the 13th amendment abolishing slavery and every republican congressman votes for it and every republican senator uh only four democrats and the senate and 15 in the house vote for it uh once southern democrats were forced to free their slaves they attempted to re-enslave them by passing what's called black codes so they would say yeah you're free but you gotta have a job and if we catch you without a job then we're gonna make you know um they required former slaves to be apprenticed to employers which is basically you're back in slavery and punished if they left and uh sharecroppers weren't better weren't any better off many southern states in the black codes prohibited blacks from owning weapons no friedman negro or mulatto shall carry or keep firearms or ammunition mississippi black code 1865. could you imagine the government not wanting you to have guns and on november 1865 republicans denounced mississippi's democrat legislature for being systemically racist the black codes and let's see so there's a republican thaddeus stevens introduces a bill to give former slaves 40 acres and a mule democrats opposed it led by president andrew johnson republicans overrode andrew johnson's veto to pass civil rights act 1866 conferring right to citizenship on freed slaves to force southern states to extend extend the rights of state citizenship to former slaves republicans pushed through the 14th amendment 100 percent of democrats voted against the 14th amendment and republican john farnsworth says the reason for the adoption of the 14th amendment was because of discriminating legislation of those states by which they were punishing one class of men under different laws from another class and then they had jim crow laws and to keep the former slaves from voting republicans granted voting rights to former slaves in the district of columbia overriding again democrat andrew johnson's veto they passed another legislation protecting voter voting rights of all freed slaves overriding democrat president johnson's veto and then the republicans begin to impeach president andrew johnson and and then democrats in georgia's senate expel black civil rights activist tunis campbell and 24 other black republicans they just kick them out but then they're later reinstated by the republican congress republicans push through the 15th amendment guaranteeing freed slaves the right to vote and tuskegee institute recorded that between 1882 and 1968 there were 4 743 lynchings there were more than those but those are documented and out of those 3 3446 were blacks and 1297 were white radical republicans down in the south registering free blacks to vote think of that almost one out of every four or five lynchings was a white republican that was lynched because they were down in the south registering to free blacks to vote spanish-american war uh the blacks and whites fought together general pershing says white regiments black regiments representing young manhood of the north and south fought shoulder to shoulder unmindful of race or color unmindful of whether commanded by ex-confederate or not and mindful of only their common duty as americans then you have black codes the separate but equal and the dumpy train cars were the ones that the blacks were forced to be on so there's a case 1892 black man homer plessy was arrested for violating louisiana's separate car act supreme court upheld the racial discrimination in plessy versus ferguson 1896 calling it separate but equal but defying that 1901 republican president theodore roosevelt hosts the first black man to have dinner in the white house booker t washington and he caught flack for that from the south and um 1914 woodrow wilson is back in charge and he segregates the military reversing 50 years of integration and woodrow wilson democrat uh has a filming of a kkk film in the white house and uh he considers plessy versus ferguson as a starry isis settled law and so he says segregation is not humiliation but a benefit and distinctively to the advantage of the color he's trying to talk him into it and um then he segregates the army navy postal service treasury and so forth and uh this was uh prageru did this and it says woodrow wilson shared many views of the kkk and so forth and so in 1921 democrat wright supremacists destroyed tulsa's black wall street killing 300 leaving 10 000 homeless now it's sort of interesting that critical race theory tries to say well it was black versus white no it's democrat versus republican it's not a racial issue it's a political issue and um anyway fdr appoints a kkk member hugo black to the supreme court that's the justice black reveal the ku klux klans and uh to gain support of the democrat south fdr agrees to block enforcement of anti-lynching laws and then another little side chapter is during world war ii the imperial japanese army had korean chinese philippine comfort women one woman for every 70 soldiers and uh the japanese who uh then the japanese women who volunteered during the war for factory work or to be nurses they were taken and made into comfort women right and they and so again this fallen selfish human nature and it comes in all colors but what matters is the software that's running on the brain is it love your neighbor or is it selfish and then you have democrat congressman lyndon johnson from texas when there was a civil rights bill because this civil rights bill is a farce and a sham i'm opposed to that program i have voted against the so-called poll tax repeal bill and i have voted against the so-called anti-lynching bill there was a bill to stop lynching and he votes against it um during world war ii republican general eisenhower for bad racism and made the decision to arm black american soldiers with weapons 1948 democrat candidate for president strom thurman says there's not enough troops in the army to force the southern people to break down segregation and admit the negro race into our theaters into our swimming pools 1952 1956 a majority of black americans vote for a republican president dwight eisenhower 1953 eisenhower's vice president richard nixon chaired a committee to eliminate discrimination on the basis of race and color in the employment practices of the federal government 1954 supreme court justices reject the starry decisis or the settled law of plessy versus ferguson and they get rid of separate but equal and they have brown versus the board of education prohibiting racial discrimination immediately orders desegregation of the washington dc public schools and then eisenhower proposes a civil rights bill to enforce the 15th amendment strengthening the rights of blacks to vote democrat senator strom thurman filibusters eisenhower's civil rights bill for 24 hours and instead of voting for eisenhower's civil rights bill democrat senator john f kennedy delayed it by voting to have it sent to the senate judiciary committee doris kearns goodwin writes in the book lyndon johnson the american dream quoted democrat senator lyndon johnson telling democrat senator richard russell regarding the civil rights act of 1957 these negroes are getting pretty uppity these days and that's a problem for us since they've got something now they've never had before the political pull to back up their uppitiness now we've got to do something about this we've got to give them a little something just enough to quiet them down not enough to make a difference lbj goes on for if we don't move at all then their allies will line up against us and they'll be no way of stopping them we'll lose the filibuster there'll be no way of putting a break on all sorts of wild legislation it will be reconstruction all over again what's reconstruction that's after the civil war ulysses s grant had the federal troops down in the south to prevent discrimination so september 4th 1957 democrat arkansas governor orville falbe fabbus stood at the door of the central high school in little rock with the arkansas national guard and blocked nine black students from coming inside southern democrat governors resisted desegregation republican eisenhower was hated by democrat governors for sending troops south to force racial integration of the public schools as he had previously integrated the military democrat birmingham commissioner bull connor who had close ties with the kkk stated in 1957 segregation laws are still constitutional and i promise you that until they are removed from the ordinance books of birmingham they will be enforced in birmingham to the utmost of my ability and by all lawful means now birmingham that's where republican former secretary of state condoleezus rice was from and she was on the view in 2018 regarding democrat bull connor she says let me tell you why i'm a defender of the second amendment i was a little girl growing up in birmingham alabama in the late 50s early 60s there was no way that bull connor a democrat and the birmingham police were going to protect you and so when the white knight riders would come through our neighborhood my father and his friends would take their guns and they'd go to the head of the neighborhood it's a little cul-de-sac and they would fire in the air if anybody came through i don't think they actually ever hit anyone but they protected the neighborhood i'm sure that if bull conor had known where those guns were he would have rounded them up and so i don't favor some things like gun registration now i just thought i'd put this in here again more slavery today than any other time in world history these are current news headlines more than 200 children remain abducted in nigeria and kidnapped i was driving i don't know i go a lot of places and my uber driver was from nigeria and uh he said is it yoruba tribe there's the ebu and the yoruba and then there's another tribe and he goes it's the other tribe that's that's islamic with boko haram and he says it's horrible they're kidnapping kids all the time and he says there's videos of them going onto a bus and they're asking them their tribe what tribe they were and if they say the wrong one they just kill him right there and get her on their camera he says it's horrible he says they're on the verge of a civil war why aren't everybody that hates racism so why aren't they talking about what's really happening right now in nigeria and coming to their defense and stopping that injustice these are black lives that matter in nigeria here's another one nigerian gains kidnap children on behalf of boko haram so back to my history and if i keep your attention a little longer is this interesting i i always uh hope i don't do information overload but you can um so in 1958 republican president eisenhower meets with reverend martin luther king jr in the white house eisenhower proposed a civil rights bill in 1959 but senate democrats filibustered it and watered it down 1959 when southern democrats demanded that this proposed civil rights bill include a provision that if anyone violated the law they should be tried before an all-white jury and republican vice president nixon gave the deciding vote against that democrat addition to the bill and um then alabama's democrat governor george wallace in 1963 blocks the entrance of the university of alabama stating segregation now segregation tomorrow segregation forever and that same year was when reverend martin luther king jr gives his i have a dream speech and he refers to democrat governor george wallace in his i have a dream speech he says this i have a dream that one day down in alabama with its vicious racists with its governor having his lips dripping with words of interposition and nullification one day right there in alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and little white girls as sisters and brothers so federal troops escorted black students to class democrats in the south after the birmingham children's protest in 1963 where police dogs and fire hoses were used against blacks kennedy called for a bill emulating the republican civil rights act of 1875 but the southern democrats opposed this and a former kkk klansman senator robert byrd the longest-serving democrat senator and the senate majority leader uh senator byrd admitted you had to be in the klan to advance in the democrat party and democrat secretary of state hillary clinton praised byrd in the eulogy today our country has lost a true american original my friend and mentor robert byrd it's almost impossible to imagine the united states senate without robert byrd he was not just the longest-serving member he was its heart and soul from my first day in the senate i sought out his guidance 1964 the democrat senators look at this from march 10th to march 30th to june 10th they had a filibuster of a civil rights bill democrat senator albert gore senior and these others for 71 days the united states senate was completely frozen with a filibuster and the democrats opposed the civil rights bill the democrat senator richard russell 1964 says we will resist to the bitter end any movement which would have a tendency to bring about social equality and intermingling and amalgamation of the races in our southern states democrat senator strom thurman during this time said the so-called civil rights proposal with which the president has sent to capitol hill for enactment into law are unconstitutional unnecessary unwise extend beyond the limits of reason this is the worst civil rights package ever presented to congress and is reminiscent of the reconstruction proposals and actions of the radical republican congress he's referring back to the right after the civil war the radical republicans right they were wanting to give freedom and all the rights he says we're going to go back to that this is 1964. they're still identifying with that so uh june 10th 1964 senator byrd that hillary likes he filibustered the civil rights bill for 14 hours and 13 minutes now lbj he saw the political winds shifting and so he had a watered-down compromise bill proposed and he signed it and dinesh d'souza pointed out in the independent wig september 1st 2016 more republicans proportionally voted for that civil rights act in 64 and the voting rights act of 65 and the fair housing bill of 1968 then democrats did lyndon johnson immediately followed up by introducing his great society entitlement welfare programs it was a cloud pivot strategy to backdoor the country into socialist dependency so it's like okay okay we're going to do the civil rights bill and we're not going to intimidate them at the voting booth like we've done we're going to do something new richard clown francis piven were columbia university sociologists and they were left-leaning political activists and so they came up with a back door way to get the country into socialism and uh it's a strategy involved virtue signaling or posing to care for the poor while the real purpose was to create a permanent class of dependent voters and uh showed this before but this was the 1934 chicago tribune cartoon and if you zoom in on it that's the plan of action for the u.s spend spend spend right under these welfare programs and then it says it here uh depleting the resources and then that little sign on there it says young pinkies from columbia and harvard you can't really see it there but columbia university is where cloward and piven were so he's talking about this so lbj did the big switch the big switch is not republicans and democrats switching places regarding race issues it was the democrat party switching tactics on how to manipulate minority voters and the switch was from intimidation to entitlement did you catch that they want to control but instead of doing it through hosing them down and sticking dogs you create a clowered pippin dependent class and if you think of it for a moment it's very powerful imagine if you were getting a thousand dollar check in the mail every week from someone you didn't know week after week month after thousand dollar thousand dollars after a few years of that would you ask yourself who is sending me this thousand dollar check every week i'm gonna find out who they are and vote them out of office would anybody do that i mean i'd be like well my kids got a few more bills to pay right once you get people to receive free money from you you have a very strong pull for them to want to keep you in office it's a election strategy in other words instead of suppressing african-american vote through intimidation control them through dependency on entitlement programs now according to ron kessler's book inside the white house written in 1996 lyndon johnson had a reputation of vulgarity and private conversations and believe me some of the stuff written are really really vulgar but lbj told two hesitant democrat governors a port aboard air force one and again this is in the book inside the white house ron kessler who served with all kinds of presidents so lbj tells these democrat governors if they go along with his switch from intimidation to entitlement he says i'll have those and then he uses the n-word voting democrat for the next 200 years and even malcolm x noticed this 1963 he says the liberal is more deceitful and hypocritical than the conservative the white liberal is the one who has perfected the art of posing as the negro's friend the white liberal is able to use the negro as a pawn or weapon in this political football game the white liberal controls this ball through tricks and tokeism and false promises well um just a little bit up to date uh patrice cullers founder of the blm she says we actually do have an ideological frame myself and alicia are part of the trained organizers we are trained marxists we are super versed on sort of ideological theories so trained marxist what's the marxist theory it's critical theory it's critical race theory critical economic you divide the country into groups and then you pit the groups against each other to cause division and domestic instability and insecurity and then everybody panics and they'll surrender their freedoms to the government that promises to restore peace that's the trained marxist theory that she's talking about and uh so you again you send in agitators organizers agent provocateurs and their goal is to stir up uh rioting and then when the people get panicky enough they use cert power so you create a problem that's real bad everybody's happy to settle for your answer that's half as bad that becomes the new starting point you create another problem that's real bad everybody's happy to settle for your answers half as bad then you create another problem that's real bad everybody's happy to settle for your answer it's half as bad this is the marks this is the theory and each time you settle the people give up a little more their freedoms a little more a little more until it's all re-concentrated back into the state patrice cullers was trained by eric mann he was a leader of the weather underground in the 1970s what's the weather underground oh well you know them because they bombed new york city's police headquarters and bombed san francisco's police department and killed policemen and they bombed the u.s capitol they did yeah it was in the news march 1st 1971 talk about an insurrection attack on the capitol but they're on the left so they get off the hook and um and so one of the other underground people is bill ayers and he launched the political rear of barack obama and then another blm founder opal tomeni uh is there with the marxist dictator nicholas madura and um on their blm website they had this accessed on june 12 1920. we make space for transgendered work to dismantle cisgendered privilege and uplift trans folk especially trans women we disrupt the western prescribed nuclear family we foster queer affirming network freeing ourselves from the tight grip of heteroformative heteronormative thinking or rather the belief that all in the world are heterosexuals unless she he or or do they disclose otherwise what did you just say it's a bait and switch a whole lot of people that thought blm was gonna do had no clue that the three founders are trans activists wanting to destroy the family doing all kinds of this kind of stuff and there's i did screenshots of the page just in case they had ever taken it down so one of the black men that was disillusioned and became a communist was manning johnson i mentioned him before and he was a communist for 10 years ran for congress in new york as a communist and then he realized that the communists didn't want to help his people right and he mentioned that in his book you can go online the website's still up there but i also quote him in my book on socialism but he talks about how there were some successful black businessmen that wanted to build a real estate development and have it be beautiful with fountains and streets and you know you know and it's they sabotaged it and then some other black businessmen wanted to build the first class hospital he says jews have hospitals you know catholics everybody and they wanted to have it and they got sabotaged he's he saw them sabotage one of these because they really don't want to help us they want to keep us going so they can use us to sow division sort of like yasser arafat in the middle east right so all the different countries they absorb people but yasser arafat wanted to keep the palestinians unabsorbed so that he can maintain and use them to bring division and anyway so manny johnson in his book color communism and common sense four word is written by archibald roosevelt the son of teddy roosevelt he writes this after two years of practical training and organizing street demonstrations and inciting mob violence and how to fight the police throw a brick and hide i put this in there because patrice culler says that she was a trained marxist right so this is him who said this is what his training was um i was given an intensive course in the theory and practice of red political warfare that changed me from a novice into a dedicated red professional revolutionists but some people are seeing through it i thought this was interesting nba player charles barkley said man i think most white people and black people are great people but i think our system is set up where paul our politicians whether they're republicans or democrats are designed to make us not like each other so they can keep their grasp of money and power they divide and conquer and um and i thought this was an interesting quote from burgess owens former nfl player yahoo news has the article and he says um on the concept of reparation burgess owens formerly of the jets and raiders spoke during hearing for h.r 40. i used to be a democrat until i did my history and found the misery that party brought to my race let's pay restitution how about the democrat party pay for all the misery brought to my race now again i point out that it is the software not the hardware uh it's the people need to get born again and if they truly get born again they're going to love everybody and do into the least of these what you do unto jesus that's the answer it's not political we need the word politics comes from the greek greek word paulus which means city so politics is simply the business of the city you look at the founding of america i have a book called who is the king and america it's you but i go through colonial new england you have the baptist founded providence rhode island and the congregationalists founded hartford connecticut there was nobody else in hartford except the congregationalist christians and they had to be involved in the business of the city i mean there wasn't they couldn't sit back because there wasn't anybody but the christians right you look at john wheelwright and his church found exeter new hampshire there's nobody in exeter new hampshire except his church member because they founded the city so everybody in the church was involved in the business of the city right so this idea of oh we're not supposed to get involved like that's something they're pushing on us and um anyway well in uh trying to find a place to land i thought um i've read a lot of history and i've you've been so kind as to listen to a lot of history and uh one of the things i've seen is that every single generation has a crisis bubonic plague attila the hun genghis khan world war one spanish flu and you know what if we get through our present crisis there'll be another one we'll get through that crisis there'll be another one jesus says the wheat and tares grow together till the harvest there's always going to be crises we want to turn things around we really really do and we're going to work to do that but it's almost like the lord knows that there's going to be crises and he um i mean you know we had a i'm part of a group and they for years you know we're fighting the soviet union finally the wall comes down and there's no more communism and then you know and now we've got the sharia islam threat and then we got the social i've been around long enough so i've been through a couple of these battles there's always going to be battles and it's almost like the the lord knows what time period that you're living he chose for you to be alive at this time period he knows all the dirty deals all the back room he knows everything that i just shared with you and he thinks you've got what it takes and it's it's like the crisis of the era is the is a self sorting out on a mini level of the sheep and the goats it's not the ultimate sorting out of the sheep and the goats when lord were you naked and we clothed you it's not it's not that but it's on a small level the crisis of the era is a opportunity for the people that are alive in that era to show whose side they're on are you going to run and hide are you going to give up are you going to like it says in what was that scripture that says if pretend like i'm not seeing it but the lord knows you do see it but you're just going to sort of ignore it is your goal in life to tiptoe from one side to the other without stepping on a land mine and just hope you get to the end and die without having to to go through any confrontation so freshman chemistry class there is a beaker with a solution and you pour in a catalyst and it causes a reaction and some stuff precipitates and gets heavy and falls to the bottom and other stuff gets effervescent and bubbly and floats to the top the time period that you are living in is the solution in the beaker the catalyst that's poured in is the crisis of the time period and some people precipitate and drop out and run and hide and get scared and fearful and other people get effervescent and get bubbly and they say lord use me there's a crisis out there use me to love the unlovable use me to defend the defenseless use me to stand up for righteousness use me when it looks hopeless you know the early church i mean the church was born into a one-world anti-christian government the roman empire evidently god's not afraid for three centuries that was a christian experience and uh and they prayed for what that the that the crisis would go away no they prayed for boldness and so the idea is the lord is looking at how we act and it's exciting you know i was thinking especially us guys we like conflict i mean i hate to say you don't but you do i mean i'm one of 11 kids i got five brothers and and growing up we would like fight all the time i mean if there's nothing we'd walk down a road and it'd be want a brother pick up a little piece of gravel and he would like plink it at the other brother's head just for no other reason than just a the other one would pick up a little one and he'd plunk it back and then i don't pick up one and then the rocks would get a little bit bigger then they get bigger until pretty soon you're like pelt at each other with rocks and and i found if you're ever in a rock fight with your left hand throw a handful really high and then you can wing some line drives but it's but imagine if if there was nothing to do right you get to heaven and there's all the great saints and they're talking about standing up to pharaoh and standing up to goliath and they go oh what did you do because it was all done by the time i came around i mean all the babies were fed all the diseases were cured they're going to say boring so for the rest of eternity you'll be known as the boring story guy you know we sort of crave it you know one time i was like um i mean imagine if you could like go away to an island and be away from all these problems and it'd be pretty nice for you know for a day a couple days a week a couple weeks a couple months a couple months after a while you'd probably go crazy it's like what's going on back back there what do i want to know what's going on and then what if you knew like one of your family members and they're like in the situation oh i know the answer i mean one time i thought about being in heaven you know i ran for congress three times uh i ran against dick gephardt he was the nancy pelosi before the nancy pelosi and and he spent nine million dollars trying to destroy me that's that's sort of uh you know not too many people get that opportunity you know i mean run negative ads against me every day and i mean all kinds of stuff and and my my kids and i would be like we didn't know that you know one of my books um it's called america's gotten country encyclopedia quotations i sold a half million copies i mean had the u.s supreme court even cited by name in 2014 and anyway he did a commercial and he at a debate he took the video and he froze this is back in the year 2000 froze the frames with my eyes were half closed so i look like i'm inebriated and the screen's black and white and it says bill federer too extreme from missouri it has my book slide across the screen and and then it says you know too extreme from missouri and he played that every day every day every day people say what's this oh and they'd say that that i don't know how they found the some group in montana called the montana militia had a website where they had hundreds of books and mine was one of the books and so the ad was him in color with all the old people and little children then it turns black and white with my eyes half open and this book and the two extremes from missouri and he says he even supplies books to the montana militia people i don't know and so like a couple years later my brother asked me to speak at his child's class you know how you get the grown up to come and tell their career and i did a book on george washington carver and and so i'm in front of the class and the teacher says now this is bill feder he's a he's an author and the one little kid raised his hand i mean the kid's feet don't even touch the floor he goes oh i remember you bill federer too extreme from missouri [Applause] and um anyway but during that time period i thought you know oh it'd just be nice just to like die and be in heaven and be with the lord and be so numb and be so wonderful and then i would think oh that's great and then then i would after you know being up there for a couple weeks i'd be like what's going back on going on down on earth and i want to look at look over the edge to see and and then i and i would sort of see like you know i i could have handled that i could have handled a little bit more i mean that was that you know or maybe see one of your kids think look they're facing a problem oh i can help them oh no i can't help them and martin and him i think that's what praise and worship does praise and worship is an opportunity for us to escape and be in the presence of the lord and then we open our eyes we're back down on earth we can handle it again for another you know week or whatever so um anyway so the idea is uh just want to encourage you and let you know that someday you'll be dead but but you'll be in heaven because you believe that jesus died on the cross to pay for all your sins so uh i i heard one person say in in heaven you'll travel as fast as you think and i'll probably show up late so so imagine imagine in heaven you're you're in heaven you're walking the streets of gold and you meet moses and moses invites you over to his place i don't know what it's like up there but jesus did say in my father's house there are many mansions so i bet moses will have a pretty nice place he'll probably have one of those big fireplaces where the logs don't burn up get it the burning bush in the wilderness didn't burn up and the logs in this fireplace and anyway and uh yeah so i'll show up late my wife will say where were you i said i was thinking about something else you know but but imagine being there and maybe it's like tonight maybe he's got a big living room and after all the small talks over uh you ask him say moses what was it like i mean i read the book i even saw the movie but but here you are in person the room will get quiet moses will stand up and he goes i was 80 years old and pharaoh the most powerful military leader in the world was charging at us with these brand new chariot wheels and these sharp swords and we were totally unarmed and i just stood there holding up my staff and i said god use me to deliver your nation and the waves came in and swallowed up pharaoh's chariots we're gonna say wow then we're gonna look around the room and see david say david tell us your story the room will get quiet david will stand up he goes i was just a teenager and this thug goliath was mocking our god and making fun of our faith and these grown-ups were too chickened to do anything about it i said enough of that i took my little sling went out there and hit him in the head and i took his own sword and i chopped his head off we're gonna say wow everyone say gideon tell us your story well there's a hundred thousand midi nights i got thirty thousand israelites and god said too many tell everyone that's scared to go home great now i'm down to ten thousand still too many go drink from a creek wheels into 300. and then god says okay watch this right god loves to wait till it looks hopeless and then he raises up little nobodies they're small in their own eyes and big in faith and courage and then there's deborah and the apostle paul one by one everybody in moses's living room is going to tell their story it's going to be really exciting and then everybody in the room's going to look at you says you we haven't heard from you yet tell us your story what was going on on earth when it was your turn to be down there what were they saying about god in your country or the baby in the mother's womb or or marriage that god himself instituted what did you do and the whole world was against you what did you do when it looked hopeless what did you do when you were even backstabbed by some of your christian friends what did you do what did you just kept your eyes on jesus right and and all that you had was a little thread of faith but you trusted in in the lord and it turned into a string and a rope and a cable and finally the blessings of god came back into your life you know i'd hate for for any of us to be up there and jesus to walk in the room and jesus have a big screen and show all kinds of great things happen in miracles and people coming to the lord and him saying this is what i had planned for you to do but you just didn't have enough faith and courage and you look back at your life and that big mountain that fear of man that held you back from doing everything it's just a little ant hill and you said i let that little and heal that fear of man hold me back from dude and you can't go back to earth and do anything else for jesus because you're already in heaven because you believe that jesus died on the cross to pay for all your sins but guess what we're still on this earth we still have breath in our lungs we still have feet that trod the soil you still can do those courageous faith-filled things that you will be known for forever out of the 6 000 years of world history the good lord decided for you to be alive right now he's given you his word he's given his holy spirit he's given you a great pastor with jack hibbs he's given you everything you can do this right so so let's think of a basketball game and you're on the bench and jesus is the coach and he comes over and he slaps you on the back and he says it's your turn get in the game and you're like but coach they're playing really tough out there yeah yeah i know uh it's your turn get in the game you're like but somebody just got knocked down yeah yeah i know you're seven feet tall they are four feet tall you can do this greater is he that's in you than he that's in the world this is your time to do those things that you will be known for forever god bless you thank you you guys you have got to get this message you've got to get this message to everybody you know everybody has to hear not only tonight obviously the last three nights we need to somehow we'll work on this somehow we need to package this and get it into a download or a thumb drive or something or a click where you can invite your neighbors in your neighborhood can you imagine just taking your local neighborhood and saying come and join us come to our come to our place monday night and we're going to watch this thing and we can stop it and discuss it and stop and you know start it and talk and stop and discuss and we need to do this we need to do this for our nation for our children for our own sanity who's to say but maybe that kind of education in your neighborhood in your own home begins to stir up the neighborhood of conversation in your area people begin to say hey listen can we do that again can we bring our kids maybe can we bring our college kid i just had somebody text me and say i would give anything if my college children would listen to tonight this this was worth its weight in gold amazing so let's pray let's pray for in fact let's let's pray let's pray that god because i'm a little i'm a little nervous about something i i i don't want i don't want things to slow down at the pace that god has been moving these last 15 16 months i don't know about you but now i'm addicted to what he's doing i'm concerned that we could be tempted with the normal with what was normal there's so many things happening in our world and you guys there's a lot of things that if we look at it with the right eyes very hopeful don't get bummed out so father we come before you tonight and lord god we ask in jesus name in the name of the one who died on the cross and literally rose from the dead and when we focus on that truth it doesn't matter what anyone says and it doesn't matter what anybody says you're on your throne tonight you could snap your fingers and erase this universe you could move the earth three miles further away from the sun right now and we'd freeze the death you could move it three miles closer and we'd burn up you have fine-tuned everything but this world is in a panic because man has been let loose i thank you almighty god that the sickness and insanity the violence and the viruses the slavery in the seduction it's not from you it's not you it's us this is what we do and only a fool can't see it heavenly father we pray tonight that you would open up by divine intervention oh god we do need an intervention we need you to walk into our state we need you to lock the door and we need you to say sit down you're not leaving until i'm done here we need you lord to get our attention as a people as a culture we are drunk on nuts we are drunk on insanity we are sick we are as isaiah said we have the entire body become ill and the head is reeling to and fro as a drunken man that's us that's america and we see already this week today brand new war breaking out with the taliban taking over 37 cities in the last couple of days because they said america won't do anything people are dying the church is absent our nation is in great need of you father god the things we heard tonight some of us are old enough to say i remember that oh my goodness i remember that or i remember being taught that not only living it but we remember being taught that most of us tonight said we didn't know that i love lord how you opened up our eyes tonight to show us that this whole thing about critical race theory is an old doctrine of demons that is just recirculated at opportune times and it has nothing to do with race i love how bill put that out tonight it's made crystal clear instantly crystal clear it's a political ploy it's one party warren against another stokes the flames of the wickedness of man's heart so father god we confess and admit tonight that the only hope and healing healing balm for california is is spiritual awakening among the lost and a spiritual revival among the church if we really do care about you we will take care of that pregnant young girl and see that baby brought to full term and adopted and abortion will just evaporate off the face of this state father our homelessness and violence is so bad that even barbara boxer senator bobber boxer was attacked by a homeless guy and even gavin newsom a few weeks ago attacked by a homeless man i mean what's it going to take for people to wake up all this is a manifestation of sin because we have sinned against you and father we're praying tonight that good people would begin to decide now to obey god because you have the answers and you can heal our land there's no there is no written mandate that says we can't be spared i mean you told jonah go and tell nineveh it's over but because of who you are in your nature you allow yourself to pause an edict of judgment when there's repentance california deserves and will be judged but if we turn and cry out to you you will hold it back for a little longer we're asking you to do that father and lord we're asking you to wake up the true church and lord now we're seeing in some ways yet another wave of stripping away we see father god that next week we will decide who will rule over us who will make our decisions father we confess as a california people we have we don't quite understand how to vote apparently we love to raise our income tax i don't know how we do that but we love to increase our gas tax we vote on that stuff give tax me more we always wind up i've never met anybody who voted for it but it always turns out that way how is that father god we pray that you would intervene in our ability to vote and lord give the give the house of god the christian in california give them discernment to understand nobody goes to battle without counting the cost we don't go to battle unless we make sure we have enough to win the war you taught us that and of course you're talking about anything everything and it was a parable on top of it which means it applies to any situation of challenge and lord we've got to start somewhere in this state so much is wrong and lord in my own personal life as i stop and think what would bless your heart the most god i i i don't think filling in all the potholes on the freeway is going to bless your heart that much i don't think it's prettier freeway signs that are all faded i think would bless your heart immediately the most is stopping the killing of unborn babies so god i pray that you'd give us leaders should give us a governor and give us a assembly and a senate here in this state that fears you i don't care if the person is a monkey or an elephant or a donkey or a or a clown if they fear you we would be in good hands so god please we're asking you to remember us in mercy and lord please convict us to pray more we have a big deal coming up starting monday in the spirit realm there's going to be a lot of lying a lot of cheating there's going to be a lot of denying there's going to be all kinds of stuff that happens at night father god turn on the light if need be you caused the sun to stand still so joshua could finish his battle oh lord we pray that the need be the son would stand still over california and i pray god i don't know lord this might be a my attitude might be wrong about this but we would love to we'd love to see you do something that's really encouraging for us at this time something really historic i mean that may sound kind of selfish i guess but i don't know i don't know lord why not why not see you move i mean we might have to control ourselves to say that's our god look look that's our god that's our guy we might have to say yes that is our god uh but lord we have to confess it would be awesome to say look at you look at him we told you he was going to do something the world watches california it sets the tone for the nation and so for a long time we've been laughed at lord please it would be true if you could begin to turn this state around this is a perfect state to give you great glory because boy are we messed up if you could fix us there's a lot of glory there lord if i could just tap into a little bit of how jacob argued with you right now i'd like to counsel you on how good of a deal it would be for you to turn this state around we are we're really ready to receive some good news from you and lord we're not trusting in people that's ridiculous we're not looking to having the answer in some office or some political group father we pray that you'd put people in power that can be controlled by you simple as that and father we pray also too a lot of dynamics going on in our local school this school board right now father i pray that you'd galvanize and wake up the churches the christians to take their communities they pay for them we pay for them our kids walk our streets here grandkids we need lord to take possession and stewardship over what you've given us and lord may this church if anyone is sitting out of responsibility may you just love them into action we could all grab one another by the neck and shake each other till our teeth are falling out but that's not going to cause anything to happen but if you touch our hearts with love to say hey if you love me feed my sheep and lord all around town now the sheep are back in buses they're walking the streets going to school father we pray that you would just begin to heal our land and stop god stop the terrible evil the violence the provocateurs and give us wisdom baptize us father with wisdom make us all very wise about what we hear we're not supposed to hear everything there's a lot of stuff that we see or hear that we were to reject more than ever so god give us discernment on what to hear and what not to hear what to listen to and what not to listen to but jesus i pray that we agree together on this that you would look down from heaven and look down here at 4201 and you'd say if i don't bless those pathetic people at that church they're just going to perish if i don't pour out my spirit upon them they're going to get all messed up look down upon this god and safe from heaven if i don't pull them closer to me and spoil them with my presence they're going to fall into a ditch and lord i i pray that on on the grounds that you gave me you said as a father pities his children so the lord pities those who fear him so jesus we're looking for your pity we love you god if there's anybody here tonight that doesn't know you like that i pray that they would say right now to you jesus please you be this god in my life you receive all of my sin and guilt and shame that i hand to you right now and i receive all the wonderful gifts you give but chiefly among all salvation it's the lord as we set our eyes to sunday morning may you bring those here only those here who you want here may you keep away those that you do not want here may you protect this place protect the people who drive the distance they do who park so far away and walk so far to get here pray that you give us grace bless lord our local corporate neighbors who we have to use their parking lots they could say no really mess us up give us grace lord i haven't looked lately but if nobody's using la fitness lord maybe you could give that to us we could use that spot or the u.s navy across the street i don't know what's going on with them maybe we could use that spot god fabtech best buy i think toys r us is down the road nothing's going on there for sure god that building's empty what's that all about we could use that jesus we also need a school we need a school because men like william federer would come and do student assemblies for our children david barton's getting in line he's all ready to do that [Applause] frank turek would come and give a student assembly to our kids on apologetics i couldn't think of a better school but god we need the place there's so much that need to be done god please and lord i'm not asking this in a vain way but i pray that you just cause all of us to stop aging until we get the job done my biggest fear now is getting too old to get it done make us like caleb if we're 80 years old we feel like we're 40. and he was still killing giants at 80 years old there's so much to be done jesus and we don't care about the money's ridiculous i mean that's almost funny because you'll bring all that if there's vision and you bring vision where there's need and there's a whole lot of need so father we expect to hear from you envision and then you'll pay all the bills that's the god you are so father we love you tonight and if you want a short chance uh short circuit all of what we've prayed tonight we pray that you'd interrupt us this night with a trumpet blast while we're sleeping would be just fine with us in jesus name and all god's people said amen amen god bless you guys have a great night [Music] you
