Socialism: The Real History, From Plato to the Present

the month of october was completely dedicated to making you the best equipped citizen right understanding your biblical world view that's very big to us that you know why you believe what you believe and then how is it lived out in your lives what do you do with what you know and that is passionate and every two years we address this to some degree and it's been that time of the year again and come tuesday we have prayed we have scoured the state and beyond and we have announced a biblical worldview now we leave it in the hands of god after we've done what he's asked us to do we leave it with him but today is going to you're going to get a cherry on top of your of your meal this man is a friend of mine many of you will recognize hey i think i think he's quoting jack wrong i've been quoting him whatever you can find i think they're sold out i'm not sure even today but whatever you can get that has been authored by william federer will be an absolute galvanized documented footnoted truth he is a profound historian you're going to need to buckle up because he talks a little quick and i wish i knew what he has forgotten i'd be brilliant you guys please give a warm welcome to william federer thank you god bless you well praise the lord hallelujah thank god for pastor jack hibbs and his wife lisa thank god for pastors with backbone right here in california well welcome calvary chapel chino hills it's an honor for me to be with you and there's a quote from a historian arthur schlesinger jr it's history is to the nation what memory is to the individual so have you ever met an individual who has lost their memory maybe they have alzheimer's it's really sad they forgot who they are they forgot who you are well guess what we have national alzheimer's here we are the freest country that planet earth has ever seen and we forgot who we are we forgot how we got here and so hopefully with my talk today it'll give us a little bit of a memory uh push and remind us who we are as a country well i did a recent book on socialism the real history from plato to the present and the subtitle is how the deep state capitalizes on crises to consolidate control and with your indulgence i'm going to go through some of this and draw some spiritual analogies plato 380 bc in athens he writes about an island of atlantis this highly structured civilization on an island very organized very advanced and it sinks in the ocean now it's legendary did it exist or not nobody knows for sure but plato thought that it did and he considered atlantis a ideal structured society and he considered democracy an unstructured society and demos means people crossy means rule and so a democracy the people rule and the chief characteristic of a democracy is tolerance everybody tolerates each other he calls it the most charming form of government like an embroidery patchwork with lots of colors like a bazaar where you can go to a market and you can buy any viewpoint it's great and then they tolerate people that are a little bit off then they tolerate people that are a lot off until finally they're tolerating crooks and crime and fraud and broad daylight looting and there's all this violence and nobody does anything about it and convicted criminals are just walking the street and nobody cares about it and then he says it creeps into their handling of finances and it's a democracy and so they vote to spread the city treasury around now the treasury's empty and then they say where can we get more money uh the rich people so they vote to take the money from the rich people now there's no rich people and then there's a shortage and they begin to bicker amongst each other and then he says it creeps into their morality and the professor wants to be at the level of the student and the the family the son's disrespectful to the father and plato says this the manner of life is that of democrats now he's describing a democracy he says every man does what is right in his own eyes and he says the young man passes into freedom and libertarianism of useless and unnecessary pleasures there is no conceivable follow your crime not accepting incest or any other unnatural union yes that's what he's talking about he is part of company with all shame and so what we see is this casting off of morals and restraints has now gotten to the place where there's lawlessness in every area an interesting study was done by an anthropologist j.d unwin wrote a book called sex and culture in 1934 and he not only studied athens but he studied 80 civilizations over 5000 years and he found out that loosening of sexual restraints always leads to civilizational decline he divided it into four so a nation would go through a period of pain in poverty maybe a war maybe a famine and they make it through and they work hard and they become productive and then they become protective and then they become patriotic and they become exploring and innovative and creative and finally they become prosperous and then they want to enjoy it and they become a little pleasure focused and then they become sexually promiscuous and indulgent and undisciplined and lawless and they get weakened and then they get conquered by the next rising civilization that comes along and so he says that sexual promiscuity always precedes the decline and destruction of a civilization uh he even gets into it he calls it a a sexual marketplace he says if the woman says if the women in general say nothing happens until there's a commitment the guy says well whatever it takes and um and so then they get married and the um the next thing they know is there's children and so the guy wants to be productive and protective of the family and when all the men become productive and protective the whole country begins to rise what rising water floats all boats right but if the women say well there doesn't need to be a commitment water seeks its own level and you'll have a bunch of guys say well okay let's this is easy and the guy's attention becomes pleasure focused and sensual and before you know it uh there is not the productiveness and then they um end up uh focusing on selfishness and there's fewer kids to fill the ranks of the army and they get weakened anyway so this is what athens was experiencing and john adams wrote to thomas jefferson have you ever found in history a single example of a nation thoroughly corrupted that was afterwards restored to virtue and without virtue there can be no political liberty will you tell me how to prevent luxury from producing effeminacy intoxication extravagance vice or folly no effort in favor of virtue is lost and so harrius truman writes he says without a firm moral foundation freedom degenerates quickly into selfishness and anarchy so now we have this plato we have this athens democracy and it turns into an unstructured mess and then the people begin to look for someone to fix the mess and a governor comes along and says i can fix it i just need some emergency powers and plato says last of all comes the tyrant in the early days of his power he's full of smiles if any are suspected of resistance his authority he will have a good pretext for destroying them the protector standing up in the chariot of state with the reigns in his hand a tyrant absolute so he first comes along posing as a protector but then after he gets enough power he becomes a tyrant having a mob entirely at his disposal he is not restrained from shedding of blood so it's okay to riot uh you just can't have church but um so plato says a democracy is doomed to fail because it's based on the people having virtue and if you give people a choice of giving up their life or giving up their virtue they will always give up their virtue to save their life now i contrast this in a moment with ancient israel and their first 400 years out of egypt they had no king and they were a country ruled by virtue but they had an advantage there was a big magnet in the sky called god so the citizens were virtuous because they were accountable to god athens did not have that athens by plato's time had a bunch of fickle greek deities that nobody believed in anyway angel plato says that people really don't have virtue in this democracy experiments bound to collapse he says this if a truly just man lived let him die as he lived i might add that the just man will be scourged racked bound and will at last be crucified he writes this in 380 bc people really don't have virtue if anyone was born that really had virtue the world would crucify him isn't that amazing so plato he concluded the best the people can hope for is a nice tyrant and he called him a um the head of gold and his administrators and military his political crony enforcer deep state class they are the arms and chest of silver together they make up the ruling class and everyone else is the abdomen of iron and bronze they are the ruled class so socialism all goes back to plato it's a structured socialist society of a ruling class and a ruled class and there's no middle class right because the middle class has to be eliminated because they're the only ones that can challenge the ruling class so the ruling class they're above the law they're politically connected and they're supported by the commoners the ruling class can do things like getting their hair styled when nobody else can now the ruled class in plato's model they own no property they have no families the government decides who gets to have children and the government takes the children away from the parents and socializes them which is a process of getting them to give up their values and just obey and serve the ruling class and plato says that when the true philosopher kings are born in a state they will set an order structure their own city they will take possession of the children who will be unaffected by the habits of their parents these they will train in their own habits and laws sort of a common core type thing and the children are taught noble lies he actually calls them lies but the lies help him stay in power and since he's the best you can hope for he says um we want one single grand lie which we will be believed by everybody can you imagine the government pushing a lie and um so plato his structured society on the island of atlantis inspired someone 2 000 years later named sir thomas moore and so 20 years after columbus discovers america and there are new lands discovered and the philosophers like sir thomas more saying hey maybe we can set up a perfect society and so thomas moore writes the island of utopia the word utopia means nowhere it's a fictitious island fictitious island off the coast of south america and um it's the book is written as a dialogue with a traveler the traveler's name is heiflodeus which means peddler of nonsense and so on this island of utopia it's like atlantis there's a perfectly structured society an upper ruling class lower commoners there's free healthcare free identical clothing everyone's seat receives free welfare there's common meals in a monastic communal dining hall everyone lives in identical three-story houses with no locks on doors there is no private property all goods are stored in a communal warehouse there are no taverns no ale houses no coffee houses there is no places for private gatherings there is no privacy everyone is tracked with an internal passport the government decides everybody's careers and there are no families the the government regulates child bearing this is very similar to china's one child policy or planned parenthood's margaret sanger who said no woman shall have a legal right to bury child without a permit this is utopia this is this perfectly structured socialist society of a ruling class and a world class now this plato's atlanta's mr thomas now sir thomas moore wrote this as a veiled jab at king henry viii who was like ruling everybody's lives in a dictorial way and sure enough henry viii had sir thomas more killed but a century later you have sir francis bacon and he writes in 1626 the new atlantis he's directly referencing plato's atlantis and this is a fictitious island in the south pacific and highly structured ruling class world class a little more scientific because by this time the scientific revolution took place with sir isaac newton discovering laws of gravity and laws of planetary emotion lost optic and robert boyle discovering laws of pressure and and so um but the still the government decides everyone's careers someone wrote a satire on this jonathan swift's gulliver's travels here's a guy washed up on an island right of lilliput and it's highly structured with this ridiculous ruling class and the rule class where all their fates decided by the the ruling class and um why is this important the pilgrims this is the same time they were found in plymouth and they originally were a company colony with bylaws written by the investors that financed their boat ride and so these investors wrote the pilgrim company bylaws looking back to plato's or thomas morse or francis bacon and lo and behold everything was owned in common and the pilgrims tried it and almost almost starved so this is what the bylaws said all profits and benefits that are got by trade traffic trucking working fishing or any other means shall remain in ye common stock all are to have their meat drink and apparel and provisions out of yi common stock so the governor of the pilgrims is william bradford and he writes the failure of that experiment of communal service which was tried for years by good and honest men proves the emptiness of the theory of plato and other ancients applauded by some of latter times the pilgrims knew they were trying to live out this theoretical plato's the atlantis type of structured society and he says by the taking away a private property and possession of it in community would make a state happy and flourishing as if they were wiser than god he goes on for in this instance community of property was found to breed much confusion and discontent and much employment which would have been to the general benefit for the young men who were most able and fit for service objected to being forced to spend their time and strength in working for other men's wives and children without recompense the strong man or resourceful man had no more share of food clothes etc than the weak man who was not able to do a quarter of what the others could this was thought injustice and the agent engraver men who were ranked and equalized in labor food clothes etc with the humbler and younger ones thought it some indignity and disrespect as for men's wives who were obliged to do service for other men such as cooking washing their clothes etc they considered it a kind of slavery and many husbands would not brook it or allow it he goes on let none argue that this is due to human failing rather than to this communistic plan of life in itself i answer that god in his wisdom saw that another plan of life was fitter for them so they began to consider how to raise more corn and obtain a better crop than they had done so they might not continue to endure the misery of one like starving through winter at length after much debate the governor with the chief among them allowed each man to plant corn for his own household wow what a novel idea so every family was assigned to partial land this was very successful it made all hands very industrious so that much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been by any means and gave far better satisfaction the women now went willingly into the field and took their little ones with them to plant corn while before they would allege weakness and inability and to have compelled them would have been thought great oppression so here we have this theoretical plato sir thomas wars of francis bacon we have the pilgrims trying to live it out they almost starve to death they scrap it and they come up with a covenant form of government now people say now didn't the early church own everything in common well a little different two things one voluntary versus involuntary and church versus government so the early church yes believers sold their land but it was voluntary and they voluntarily brought the money to the feet of who the apostles the church for the church to give away why because if the church gave it it would fulfill the mission of helping the poor and the people would be thankful and realize that not only do christians love them but god loves them and they would help wanted to convert and then they would want to help the next person along the line then this thing would multiply they did not involuntarily be forced to sell their land and bring the money to defeat a pilot for the roman government to redistribute right imagine that so okay you got to sell your land you got to bring the money to defeat a pilot whenever the government redistributes anything it does it so that it can stay in power even in egypt right the government gave grain to the poor but it was in exchange for their lives and um so there's a confusion as to the role government's supposed to play did you know that god gives commands to five main categories individuals families business church and government there are commands among other things for the individual to take care of the poor right there's a spread the gospel and but to um visit the orphan and the widow and to you know be generous and leave the corners of your field for the poor people to pick through there's really no commands for the family to take care of poor strangers the commands to the family or husbands love your wives and children submit to your parents there's really no commands for employers and employees to take care of the poor those commands are do an honest day's work and don't hold back the wages there are commands for the church to take care of the poor and historically the church has the church invented hospitals right after the third century they were doing the pilgrims would go to the holy land and they were travelers and they had arrived sick and so they would set up a little infirmary in the cathedral and the word hosp is means traveler and so they would take care of these travelers and then it turned into other hospitals and they would be whole orders of nuns and priests before the reformation and they would take care of them all but there's no commands for the government to take care of the poor the command of the government is the shortest protect the innocent punish the guilty there's no command for the government to be involved in health care no command for the government to be involved in education what's happened is the government has usurped the church's role there's a quote from calvin coolidge it does not follow that because something ought to be done the national government ought to do it only you take care of the poor yes but it's not the government's job to do it oh we need to do this we need to do that yes but here's a quote from gerald ford people say why don't you expand that program and spend more federal federal money i look at them in the eye and say do you realize that a government big enough to give us everything we want is a government big enough to take from us everything we have so the pilgrims got rid of their company colony and they replaced it with a covenant now what is a covenant it goes back to the assembly of the israelites when they came out of egypt i do a book where i go through all the world history uh it's called who is the king and i document how the most common form of government in world history is a king nimrod's pharaoh caesar kaiser sultan's are and as the centuries go on the kingdoms get bigger because with military advancements you can kill more people so instead of cane killing abel with a rock now they can kill with a bronze weapon or an iron weapon or a big long phalanx spear of the greek's head or a cemetery sword that the muslims had or gunpowder that the chinese invented or nuclear power the weapon changes but it's that same fallen nature of king kill and abel just magnified through technology and we see it where you have you put some kids on a playground one kid's the bully uh you put some junior high girls together one of them is the diva you put some people in the woods one of them is an indian chief you put some people in inner city one of them is a gang leader and all a king is is a glorified gang leader and so it's this top down pyramid structure when ancient israel comes out of egypt in around 1400 bc for 400 years they do not have a king it's a total anomaly here you have a nation with millions of people and there's no king and so this was the model for the new england pastors that set up the forms of government in america that turned into our constitution it's a we the people it's a covenant form of government and so what's a covenant it's people committed to each other and they get the rights from god and they're accountable to god you're nice to everybody not because the bylaws tell you to but because you're accountable to god that wants you to and so you do it voluntarily rather than the government forcibly it's a big deal i mean uh it's the whole thing that that courtship's all about right it's to win the woman's voluntary will right and so this is what uh is the importance so the early church voluntarily gave the money to the church to redistribute rather than the government forcibly taking it away they were so into this from the reformation 1517 to the age of enlightenment in the early 1600s you have a century where the scholars in europe were studying this period of israel that just came out of egypt it's called the hebrew republic they were so into it they taught hebrew at yale and harvard this is the yale coat of arms even to this day they have hebrew characters on there and so in ancient israel instead of king's ruling through fear it was ruled by every single person being taught the law and so if you think of it as a spectrum of power one side's total government the other side's no government right so i do this little illustration so everyone hold up a fist in one hand and say concentrated power concentrated power figures apart with the other hand say separated power separated power now back to the fist concentrated power constant that is world history for most of world history power's concentrated in the government and the pharaoh caesars kaiser salt and czars and they rule through fear top down very rarely is power separated into the hands of the people a little more risk but a lot more freedom but in times of panic and crises and chaos the people freak out and let go and the rubber band snaps back into the hands of the government and so to take the power away from a king and stretch it no government would be anarchy no government unless each person is taught the law and i tried to come up with a way of illustrating this and i came up with uh an iphone illustration so how many of you have a a phone with gps and it tells you to turn left 50 yards ahead imagine a behavioral app that you can download and in real time it says don't lose your temper at that person now i see you looking at that on the table don't steal that be nice to this person right it's a behavioral and that the levites were the computer geeks that helped you to download the app right so the levite priest would say okay line up online you know go to google play apple store print down press this button line up online precept upon precept so everybody would download and they would have the ten commandments memorized but the big question is why would you follow it what would motivate you to follow an internal moral ancient israel had the key ingredient there is a god who is watching everyone he wants you to be fair and he's going to hold you accountable in the future so you're about to steal something nobody's around you know you can get away with it and then you think god is watching me he wants me to be fair he's gonna hold me accountable maybe i should hesitate stealing and so it creates something in your head called a conscience if everybody in the country really truly believed this you could maintain complete order with no police maximum liberty now god knew that the children of israel would break the law and rather than them walking around forever with a guilty conscience he had once a year the day of atonement and they would have a sacrifice right so they would have these two animals one they would kill and they would bring the blood into the holy of holies and sprinkle it on the mercy seat the blood actually changed it from a judgment seat into a mercy seat if you were to approach without the blood you would be approaching the judgment seat of god but the blood shows that the judgment for breaking the sin was put on this animal and so now you're approaching the mercy seat and the other animal right in the the yom kippur day of atonement they would high priest would put his hands and confess the sins of the nation over the animal and then lead it by the hand of a young man out into the wilderness and let it go so it'll never be seen again it's symbolic of jesus that jesus is our sacrifice he's our day of atonement he shed his blood right and put it on the mercy seat and so far as the east is from the west so far has he removed us from our transgressions that all of our sins are thrown in the depths of the sea never to be remembered again so god is a just god he has to judge every sin but he's a loving god and that he provided the lamb to take the judgment for the sin i love the story of uh abraham taking isaac to the top of mount moriah and isaac says dad we have the wood for the sacrifice and we have the little clay pot with the coals of the fire for the sacrifice but where is the sacrifice and abraham said son god will provide himself a sacrifice and there's two ways to read it god will provide a ram on the top of the hill but the other way is god will provide himself as the sacrifice that's what he did jesus the son of god the only begotten son of god became man became the lamb of god took the judgment for all of our sins and then rose from the dead so that we would know that he is who he said he was and so this way god could still be the just god and judge every sin but he's the loving god and he provided the lamb to take the judgment for the sin people to say people say i don't need jesus like dude don't you understand god is a just god he has to judge every sin you've ever done because if he does not judge your sin in law silence equals consent right so remember the wedding ceremonies the pastor says anybody against this wedding speak now or forever hold your peace if you're sitting there silent holding your peace your silence is giving consent to the wedding so if god if sins are happening and god is silent his silence would would be interpreted as him giving consent to the sin and if god gives consent to sin he's no longer a just god he denies himself and guess what god cannot deny himself so he will judge every sin so the person that says i don't need jesus like dude god has to judge every sin you've ever done because if he doesn't judge it he's giving consent if he gives consent he's no longer a just god he denies himself and he's not going to deny himself so judgment's coming so we approach god through the lamb and the price has been paid the judgment so god's completely just but he's completely love does that make sense anyway so all the sacrifices in the old testament are foreshadowing jesus and um so that so the children of israel could have a clear conscience again so their sins are forgiven for the whole year so they can start the next year off with a clean conscience and ronald reagan said without god there's no virtue because there's no prompting of the conscience so if you get rid of this god all you got a bunch of rules that some old men made up why follow them some will as long as it's socially acceptable like plato they'll be virtuous as long as it's the end thing to be virtuous but others are going to say forget this i'm going to yield to my selfish side and they're going to start robbing and stealing and killing and looting and smashing windows and setting buildings on fire and everybody's going to say we need someone to come along and fix this mess and that's when you get some king saul that comes along and usurps power and rules as the tyrant so what happened with ancient israel the priest stopped teaching the law so here's eli the high priest his own sons are sleeping with women in the very tent where the ark of the covenant is and and then you have another levite with a silver graven image in the house of a guy named micah the tribe of dan comes along and takes the graven image and takes this levite and says come along with us and be a priest to our whole tribe and you're reading the story scratching you're thinking what's this levite doing with a graven image isn't that one of the commandments you're not supposed to have them so if the levites had stopped teaching the law and then there's a terrible story of a levite with a concubine the law says the levite is to marry a virgin of his own tribe here he is with a woman he's not even married to so he's not following the law and they're in a house surrounded by sodomites something about that behavior that appears at the last stages of a people ruling themselves as casting off a moral restraint the sexual promiscuity that always perceives the decline in destruction of a civilization and so they rate the poor girl to death by the time you're grossed out by the story you read this line every man did that which was right in their own eyes the exact same words that plato said 600 years later and so when everybody did what's right in their own eyes it turns into this unstructured chaos and out of that chaos they end up getting king saul and samuel cries and the lord said they have not rejected thee but they have rejected me that i should not reign over them so god's original plan for israel is to not have a king have everybody be taught the law everybody be blessed and so forth so they get a king named saul and um he rules as a tyrant and his son became friends with david and he turns to his soldiers and he goes you soldiers don't care about little old me and the one doug the edomite says king i care i saw david go to this town the priests there gave him some bread and the sword of goliath that was stored there saul says bring those men to me he turns to his soldiers and says kill him the soldiers hesitate doug the edomite goes out there and kills them all what just happened the soldiers had been operating under the old system where every person is personally accountable to god to follow the law the law says you need two or more witnesses before you condemn someone to death there's only one doe egg so they're hesitating they're saying okay you're telling me to kill but there's only one way it's supposed to be two and i'm accountable to god they still they're hesita they still have a conscience doug says king i'm going to surrender my conscience to you you tell me to kill i'll kill you tell me to kill the baby in the womb i'll kill it you tell me there's no more male and female fine you tell me it's all whatever you tell me government whatever the governor tells me to believe i'll just throw away my beliefs just do whatever the governor says and um anyway so let's skip forward again and talk about the french revolution because every book on socialism goes back to uses the french revolution as the model this violent tearing down of the old order so that you can set up your new socialist wonderful utopia and um so france helped us during the revolution in response they got nothing but debt and lots of it and then their crops fail and the people in france said you know what if we can just chop off the king's head all of our problems will be solved then this queen marie antoinette while they do it doesn't get any better so then they chop off the heads of all the royalty and it doesn't get any better then they chop off the heads of the wealthy you have money we don't you're selfish doesn't get any better so then they chop off the heads of all the businessmen and farmers they got food and supplies we don't you're selfish then they chop off the heads of the hoarders the people that have extra food you got extra i don't have enough you're selfish then they chopped off the edge of the clergy because they were speaking out against all the head chopping off stuff and then they chop off the heads of the former revolutionaries the ones that used to chop off heads but got tired of it somehow there to blame 30 000 people had their heads chopped off in downtown paris or died in prison so the motto of the french revolution was liberte egalite which means liberty equality fraternity sounds good fraternity is their word for socialism it's the group the collective right and equality can be understood two ways in america equality was equal treatment before the law and equal opportunity in france it was everyone having an equal amount of stuff and if the fraternity the social estate thinks you have too much stuff it can take away your stuff and kill you and so while this is going on the president of yale timothy dwight says about the year 1728 voltaire in france so celebrated for his wit and his hatred of christianity formed a systematical design to destroy christianity and to introduce and instead a general diffusion of irreligion and atheism the being of god was denied or ridiculed the possession of property was pronounced robbery you got property you must have stolen chastity natural affection were declared to be nothing more than groundless prejudices all right you feel like a girl today boy tomorrow adultery assassination poisonings and other crimes of like infernal nature were taught as lawful provided the end was good so if you think your end is good it's okay for you to loot um the education of youth books replete with infidelity irreligion immorality and obscenity so we're back to plato wanting to educate the youth to destroy us therefore our enemies must first destroy our sabbath and seduce us from the house of god or ban us from going to church so um in france french revolution they just began to destroy their own history it's a process called deconstruction and the socialists have developed it where you speak negatively about the founders of the country so the people are emotionally detached from them and then they're open-minded and then you portray the future positively it's a sales technique so if i was a toothpaste salesman the first thing i do is i tell you negative things about the toothpaste you are currently brushing with you're still brushing with that old stuff don't you know it'll eat the enamel off your teeth you're like ooh and you're repulsed by it now i have you in the neutral you're open-minded what are all the toothpastes out there then i give you my push for this brand new tartar controlled breath freshener toothpaste so it's a drive neutral reverse it's sort of a gene replacement therapy for a culture so they go into the classrooms and they tell the kids negative things about the founding fathers they took land from india and sold people into slavery they were chauvinists ooh the students are opposed to them now you got the kids into a neutral they're open-minded and what are all the belief systems out there then you give them your push for socialism or lgbt or islam this happened in europe it went from a judeo-christian europe with catholic cathedrals protestant reformation and jewish neighborhoods to a secular europe with the french revolution free sex anything goes and then it's now turning into a sharia and socialist europe with muhammad being the number one new name for newborns so carl sandberg a poet said when a nation goes down one condition may always be found they forgot where they came from now in western civilization we have a judeo-christian past but in china during the warring states period third century bc about half a dozen kingdoms were fighting one one the head of it was quinchi wang d and he unified china and he was criticized for doing things differently than they had been done previously and he decided to destroy all the records of how things were done previously and so he wouldn't be criticized so the basic annals of the first emperor quinn reported his chancellor lee c 213 bc i your servant proposed that all historians records other than those of quinn's be burned if anyone under heaven has copies of the classics of history they shall deliver them to the governor for burning anyone who dares disgust the classics of history shall be publicly executed anyone who uses history to criticize the president shall have his family executed anyone who has failed to burn the books after 30 days of this announcement shall be sent to build the great wall and so this model in china of this emperor destroying all the past was later mod followed by mao zedong in china in the 1960s he had a cultural rub not just a revolution a cultural he wanted to destroy their chinese culture he destroyed the oldest buddhist temple in china he destroyed the great gates of beijing why because he wanted to get rid of the past so people would detachment so he could brainwash the country into this people's republic of china and um then pol pot did the same thing in cambodia and so dakamis khmer rouge he um killed anybody that wore glasses he said if you wore glasses you could read if you read the new the history he made 1975 the new year zero said anything prior to 1975 was irrelevant right and islamists do this so when the sharia muslims conquered alexandria egypt they destroyed the oldest library in the world and um anyway so we're seeing this happen with the 619 project and the howard zinn's people's history in the united states everybody that had anything to do with america's founding was bad bad bad why so the kids will depart from it so they can push them into their socialist future so the french revolution did this they tore down the statue of good king henry iv back in the 1500s he tried to patch up the protestants and the catholics they tore down and then they destroyed religious monuments they desecrated graves that closed the churches prohibited religious meetings banned christian schools and crosses were considered offensive and robespierre who was the head of their homeland security their committee on public safety he gave a talk on terror justified that it's okay for the government to terrorize and behead thousands of people because it'll scare everybody else to give up their values and just embrace the new secular government and so priests and ministers and those who harbored them were executed on site very similar to what happened in mexico in 1917 with president cayes and then they send their french secular army to the vendee a rural area and killed 300 000 men women and children considered the first modern genocide and robespierre put a prostitute in notre dame cathedral covered her with a sheep and said this is the goddess of reason let's worship her and for a dozen years they ruled france until napoleon and um but they made 1792 the new year one like our constitution goes back to the year of the lord they didn't want to go back to the lord so they made and they didn't like a seven day week because it went back to the bible so they came up with a 10 day week called the decade week each day had 10 hours each hour 100 minutes each minute 100 seconds they said 10 was the number of man because you count on 10 fingers and so they made every measurement in france divisible by 10. they called it the metric system maybe that's why i never really liked the metric system so now that there's no god who decides who's right and wrong the state the fraternity the mob and out so democracy without morals and virtue ends in this chaos and out of this chaos you get napoleon and napoleon conquers europe and um so what happened let's go through this we have the pilgrims had a covenant where they get right from god accountable to god in the next century after the pilgrims you have the age of enlightenment and covenant turns into social contract and it's just people in agreement with each other with a distant god what's that again scientific revolution if god's there he made laws like you know there's laws of gravity and laws of planetary motion so they said maybe like a guy makes a clock winds it up and sets it on a shelf so god made these laws and and if he's out there he's not involved he's distant and impersonal well in the next century social contract age of enlightenment turns into the french revolution with no god and in the next century turns into marxism and socialism where the state is god you get your rights from the state you're accountable to the state and hegel who was a german philosopher at the university of berlin he says the state is god walking on earth we must worship the state all the worth which the human being possesses he possesses only through the state uh rousseau who wrote the social contract says when the state says to a citizen it is expedient for the state that you should die he ought to die because his life is a gift made conditionally by the state so it's serious once you get rid of god this is what happens until in the nazis a hundred years later in germany says the nazi ministry of justice authorized physicians to end the sufferings of incurable patient no life still valuable to the state will be wantonly destroyed and then we got pole potting cambodia he said to keep you as no benefit to destroy you is no loss right so we go from pilgrim covenant under god age of enlightenment social contract with a distant god french revolution social contract with no god to socialism where the state is god and so hegel said the state recognizes no authority but its own it acknowledges no abstract rules of good and bad like the ten commandments in other words it's just a power grab by the state there's no god it's just a power grab and if you help the state to grab more power the state thinks your life is valuable and if you challenge the state's power the state will use its state power to kill you that's what so president eisenhower said in many lands the state claims to be the author of human rights if the state gives rights it can and inevitably will take away those rights the founding fathers had to refer to the creator in order to make their revolutionary experiment make sense it was because all men are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights that men could dare to be free so in other words do your rights come from the government or from a source higher than the government our founders said the rights come from a creator and the government's job is to protect our creator given rights but if there is no creator your rights come from the government and what the government giveth the government can take us away now since we talked about this natural phenomenon of democracy without morals and virtue turns into sexual promiscuity turns into chaos and how that chaos a tyrant arises guess what there's some ambitious politicians that said let's speed it along by intentionally creating and capitalizing on crises and so the bible says behold how good and pleasant it is for brethren to dwell in unity but their model is proverbs where it says six things the lord hates the last is he that soweth discord amongst the brethren there's a bible story of gideon had an illegitimate son of bimelech and he sowed discord in the town of shechem and uh he took 70 pieces of silver out of the temple of baalberth to hire vain and worthless persons like rioters to follow him and they went and slew all of his brethren and then um made of him like king so he sowed this discord and out of that discord he usurped power and became king and um anyway so now uh italy let's look at another example 500 years ago italy was a bunch of city-states and they always fought and a guy named machiavelli thought if one prince could control all these city-states it would end the infighting so he writes a book where he advocates the ends justifies the means the end of one prince controlling all of italy is such a good end because it'll stop the infighting that any means necessary to get there is justified lie cheat steal so if a prince conquers a city the people would hate him but if the prince pays criminals lets them out of jail and sends them out there to create discord and create chaos the people will panic and they'll want the prince to come in and restore order and the prince will get rid of the very people he bribed nobody would know the better for it and they'd praise the prince as a hero right and so it's called machiavellianism where you create or capitalize on a crisis to consolidate control and uh you know it better as a recent phrase you never want a serious crisis to go to waste it's an opportunity to do those things that you thought you could not do before so in other words you and i see a crisis our response is how can we help people through it ambitious politicians see a crisis they say hey this is an opportunity for me to usurp power in this crisis right and um anyway so hegel a german turns this ends justifies the means into an equation you know how germans like to do that and so he makes it into a triangle hegelian dialectics thesis antithesis synthesis sounds complicated but it's not in other words you start off with the status quo you create a problem that's real bad and everybody's happy to settle for your answer that's half as bad and then that becomes a new starting point you create another problem that's real bad and everybody's happy to settle for your answer this half is bad then you create another problem that's real bad and everybody's happy to settle for your answer that's half as bad you keep doing this until the individuals give up all their freedoms and it's all you served by the state it's this creating or capitalizing on crises to consolidate control and so who was a student at the university of berlin but karl marx he was a member of the young hegelians and so karl marx says how do you create an antithesis a real bad crisis you send in agitators agent provocateurs community organizers labor organizers their job is to find people with grievances stir them up to riot and when it gets really bad everyone will panic and give up their freedoms and um so we'd organize the proletariat against the bourgeois which is the working class against the business owners they'd organize the poor against the rich blacks against the whites catholics against the protestants muslims against the christians who twos against the tutsis in the congo and rwanda they really don't care who the two sides are and they really don't care what the issues are their goal is a destabilizing crisis that shows discord confusion chaos and out of that people will panic and they'll let some tyrant king usurp power and um so this began to come to the united states with a guy named eugene debs there was the pullman railroad car company in chicago and they had a drop in sales and so he organized the workers to riot and they destroyed 80 million dollars worth of railroad cars in 27 different states right he created this chaos right because he wanted to usher in his social he ended up starting the socialist party of america and he ran for president five times one time he ran for president from prison and um and in 1920 he branches off the communist party usa which runs candidates for president and lenin said socialism is simply a transition phase to communism and so the communists ran candidates but when franklin roosevelt made a treaty with stalin during world war ii the communist party usa said why should we run a candidate of our own from now on let's just back the democrat candidates and so now we look at germany in the 1930s germany was the republic the weimar republic and they had somebody start a socialist party it was called the national socialist workers party you know it better as nazi and the head of it was hitler and so he had a violent group called brown shirts nicknamed sturm obtained which means storm troopers and they would storm into the meetings of hitler's opponents they were sort of like a blm antifa type and they would lock arms and block access to buildings could you imagine people blocking arms and blocking things and then they went into the cities and they smashed windows and set on fire and looted over 7 000 jewish stores in the night of broken glass and then their capital got their downtown got caught on fire and in this confusion right so you've got a democracy a republic of my republican in this confusion hitler sees his power rounds up his political enemies and kills him and he's now established as a dictator right and so after world war ii the britain germany france give up their former colonies and these colonies form brand new countries with brand new leaders it's a perfect world except the soviet union decides he wants to export communism and so they would send kgb agents into these brand new countries estonia lafayette yugoslavia hungary romania and texas and what would they do they would find people with grievances ethnically maybe you know croats and serbs and bosnians or religiously orthodox and sunnis and shias or ethnically or economically didn't matter and they would break them into victims and oppressors haves and have-nots and then they would stage protests that they would escalate into riots and then they would have co-opt the media with bribes and threats to blame the leader of the country for all the problems they would even release false polling data prior to an election to show the popular leader is unpopular so nobody would challenge the voter fraud so 45 countries fell to communism this way and truman does nothing uh he thinks the united nations he helped start would bring world peace but eisenhower's the next president and eisenhower is faced with a dilemma he can sit back and do nothing and let the soviets take over or he can counter fire with fire so iran sides with the soviet union and nationalizes their oil industry you think big deal wait a second britain has no oil in 1908 they formed the anglo-iranian oil company you know it better as bp right so british petroleum is really the anglo-iranian oil company and when iran nationalizes it britain has no oil so they appealed to eisenhower and eisenhower sends approves the first cia operation to overthrow a country's leader and it's called operation ajax the cia agent on the ground is kermit roosevelt jr the grandson of teddy roosevelt he goes over to tehran does the same thing he recruits gangsters and mobsters and radical imams and they stage protests and they attack mosques and they co-opt the media with bribes and threats to blame the leader with all the problems and when the country gets panicky enough they put the leader under house arrest lock him away for the rest of his life where he dies and they install the shaw who loved america because we put him in and the cia did the same thing in guatemala in 1954 the congo 1960 dominican republic vietnam chile 1973 and the kgb did the same thing with brezhnev helping yasser arafat to start the plo and brezhnev hugging castro to take over cuba and taking over countries latin south america africa and the chinese in the far east this is called the cold war and chris matthews msnbc i remember the cold war i've seen what socialism is like and i don't like it okay it's not only not free it doesn't work i believe if castro and the reds would have won there would have been executions in central park matter of fact castro had a a killer man named shia guevara and gigevera says we executed many people by firing squad without knowing if they were fully guilty i'd like to confess i discovered i really like killing and then chai guevara says blind hate against the enemy creates a forceful impulse that cracks the boundaries of human limitations transforming the soldier into an effective selective and cold killing machine a people without hate cannot triumph gee this is a little different than the gospel the gospel talks about loving people and forgiving people and they're like we want to stir up hate and violence and discord and they also want to get rid of middle class what's that so karl marx frederick engels writes the communist manifesto and they say this we are they are alchemists of the revolution their business consisting of spurring it into artificial crises every new crisis must be more serious and universal than the last every fresh slump must ruin more small capitalists this will increase the number of the unemployed and in the end commercial crisis will lead to a social revolution could you imagine that wanting intentionally to put out of business more small capitalists and so whoever is president when there's an economic collapse gets voted out like herbert hoover and um anyway so uh they also want to infiltrate the churches so in 1980 there's a communist defector named yuri besmanov and he comes to the united states and he says that um there people think of kgb like james bond he goes no he says our job was to identify the public opinion molders in a country in other words america won a two-front war they cannot defeat us on the battlefield their goal is to rot us from within sort of like climbing a tree and you put your foot on a branch and it's nice and hard but if you put on a branch that's rotten it breaks off so they wanted and he says it's a 20-year period where they would infiltrate the public opinion molders of a country media education and the pulpit and they would push a pro-soviet message and um a hate america message and uh then they would have a three-year period of destabilizing where you'd have the country financially spend irresponsibly and get in debt and then they would have a six-month period where they have a crisis they'd blow out of proportion get the whole country to panic and then they would do their coup and then get people normalized used to the new um having giving up their freedoms but this infiltrating of the church uh congressman albert hurlong in 1963 read into the congressional record their goals and one of the goals was infiltrate the churches replace revealed religion with social religion discredit the bible now a black man in new york became a communist and his name was manning johnson he after 10 years left and realized they didn't want to help his community they just wanted to stir up crisis and so he gives testimony before the u.s congress and he writes a book teddy roosevelt's son archibald archibald roosevelt writes the foreword to the book and he talks about them infiltrating the churches he says they tried to do what they did in the soviet union you know getting him to spit on bibles and step on them and he says but in america the minority communities were so attached to the bible but he says they came in to switch the gospel message and he says their new line went like this jesus the carpenter was a worker like the communists he was against the money changers the capitalists the exploiters of the day that is why he drove them from the temple communists are the modern day fighters against capitalists and money changers if jesus were living today he would be persecuted like communists so forget the fact that we're all sinners bound to hell and god's sin has only begotten son jesus to die on the cross to pay for our sins right forget the gospel they just turned jesus into a palestinian activist and they've been successful in pushing this social justice gospel and so forth alexander solzhenitsyn 1975 said i call upon america to be more careful with its trust prevent those from falsely falsely using the struggle for social justice to lead you down a false road so we're talking about creating crisis and so there was a guy in chicago named uh saul alinsky he wrote around with al capone's hitman frank nitty and saw how all you had to do was kill a few people in chicago smash a few windows the whole neighborhood would panic and agree to pay the mob protection money so solinsky applied it to politics and says the community organizer's job first step in community organizing is community disorganizing disruption he says the organizer's first job is to create the issues or the problem the organizer must first rub raw the resentments of the people of the community an organizer must stir up dissatisfaction and discontent fan the latent hostilities of many of the people to the point of overt expression the organizer polarizes the issue i'll believe his forces into conflict he must search out controversy for unless there is controversy the people are not concerned enough to act intentionally stirring up neighborhood panic and crises so that people would surrender their freedoms and pay the mob or you know support some politician did you know he writes this in the front of his book lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgement to the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment did it so effectively he at least won his own kingdom lucifer you can buy a copy of the book it's in there and what was lucifer's plan was sewing division so we see these riots and so forth all across america now what's the covid response first response was let criminals out of jail i mean who does that and then crime goes up duh we got more violence more chaos in the city and then some people move out of the big city who uh well maybe those with families so pro-family people move out and so who's left in the city maybe those dependent on entitlements right well the pro family people usually belong to one political party and the other ones belong to a different party and then you close businesses and vandalize businesses and so pro-business people move out of the city and then churches are shut down where conservatives gather and then schools are closed where high school and college students indoctrinated with hate america are available to write but the net response of the covid was more people of one political party move out of the city leaving the other party in monopoly control of city politics and in election years whoever wins the big city wins the state whoever wins the state gets all the electoral votes for the state and the president is elected by electoral votes there's a clear political advantage to one party but the covid response and violence going up anyway i just thought i'd come give a little encouragement today you know so so i'm a big picture type of guy and so if you look at most of world history from nimrod tower of babel to uh syria's uh you know to the pharaohs to chinese emperors and uh cyrus of persian alexander the great and india's chandra gupta and augustus caesar and attila hun and genghis khan you go through all the world history and it's top-down kings it's this ruling class and if you're friends with the insiders you get the favors you get to live and if you're not then you just serve the state and why is america unique it's a polarity change in the flow of power instead of top down it's real bottom up it's ruled by we the people it's the difference between a dead pyramid and a living tree where every root and every capillary root sucks in nutrients every single citizen needs to be involved to keep this living thing alive so who's the king in america signer of the constitution governor moore said the magistrate is not the king of the people or the king chief justice john jay the people are the sovereign of this country sign under the constitution james wilson sovereignty resides in the people they've not parted with it lincoln the people of these united states are the rightful masters of both congresses and courts i love this quote from grover cleveland the sovereignty of 60 millions of free people is the working out of the divine right of man to govern himself a manifestation of god's plan concerning the human race so who's the king in america we are all right the word citizen is greek it means co-ruler or co-king you are a citizen of america you are a co-king of america right the politicians are your servants you vote them in you vote them out james wilson said every citizen forms a part of the sovereign power he possesses a vote not to vote is to abdicate the throne what about romans 13 every person must submit to the governing authorities well in america who's the ultimate governing authorities we the people right you hire the politicians you don't now imagine visiting a king maybe in the old testament you're going through the streets of jerusalem and you're witnessing murder rape crime and you get into the king's chamber and he's all worried and he looks up at you and he says did you see all that mess coming in here i wish someone would fix it and you like reach or tap them on the shoulder say excuse me uh you're the king this is your kingdom i think you're the one accountable to god to fix this mess that's like somebody in america watching tv seeing all the terrible stuff going on saying i wish somebody would fix this mess hello have a finger reach through the screen and tap you on the shoulder you're the king you're the one accountable to god to fix this mess some people may say well i need somebody to tell me what to do since when does the king sit on his throne and say can somebody tell me what i'm supposed to do hey butler come here what am i supposed to do no it's your job to get educated on the issues seek god's will and you tell your representatives what needs to happen you are the king chief justice john jay said americans are the first people whom heaven is favored with an opportunity of choosing the forms of government under which they should live he says your lives your liberty your property will be at the disposal only of your creator and yourselves if i were to pick one quote that that shows what makes america great it is this quote right here your lives your liberty your property are at the disposal of you and god there's no king in between telling you where to live who to marry what clothes to wear burgers and what food you can eat what church you can go to no it's just you and god you decide what career you want to pursue and all that you get to be in charge of your life that's what makes america great instead of some government dictator social estate determining it reagan put it this way in this country of ours took place the greatest revolution that has ever taken place in the world's history every other revolution simply exchanged one set of rulers for another here for the first time in all the thousands of years of man's relation to man the founding fathers established the idea that you and i had within ourselves the god-given right and ability to determine our own destiny you get to be in charge of your life and together we're in charge of the country the pledge leads us to the flag and to the republic a republican is where the people are king ruling through representatives right so when somebody protests the flag what they're saying is i don't want to be the king anymore i protest this system where i participate in ruling myself it's like really the word politics comes from the greek word paulus which means city like minneapolis and indianapolis so politics is simply the business of the city so in america you get to be the king of your life and then a co-king of the country and you have the opportunity of willingly submitting your life to jesus the king of kings it says in psalms 110 thy people shall be willing in the day of power so he's not forcing you from the top down he's voluntarily giving you the choice he's all based on love right god loves you he wants you to love him back doesn't need your love but he wants your love but love by definition must be voluntary the moment he would force it he would know he's forcing it and he would know your response is not really love because he forced it so he is hiding himself behind creation because if he ever revealed himself he is so awesome we'd all instinctively fall on our face and worship him and he wouldn't know if you're worshiping him just because he's awesome or if you're worshiping him because you really love him i tell my son i said you know imagine a um there's a billionaire son he goes to college driving his fancy jaguar he got all those fancy clothes and every girl is going to want to get to meet him right and he's not going to know if they're going to really love him for him or if they're loving him because of all of his stuff so what if he lays aside all that wealth and he comes to earth in the in the holes in his jeans and really poor maybe driving up with some clunker car and all the uppity girls are going to ignore him but then he meets somebody they like studying together in the library and they fall in love and then he says hey i want to take you back to meet my dad and they're like driving up to this match he's like whoa so jesus laid aside all of his divinity came to earth humble as a man so why so the only ones that would love him are the ones that love him for him right and um so jesus christ made us kings and priests unto the father and so he's the king of kings and we get this choice of voluntarily casting our crowns before him so the last thought is if the people are the king who are the conflicts of the king and i know i'm over time i apologize i'll try to but um so the roman empire became christian with constantine and the 313 a.d now up to 379 a.d there's a christian roman emperor named theodosius he's christian he's going to church in milan italy and the pastor of saint ambrose a bishop could you imagine being ambrose and having the emperor in your church on sunday guess what that is exactly what we have in america the majority of the people in america identify themselves as christian the people are the king the majority the people are christian they go to church uh or they watch online but it's the they look up to their pastors and so the pastors in a sense are counselors to the king now in 1965 the country was 69 protestant 24 catholic three percent jewish so 96 believed in the bible but it's been going down down down down but we still have 65 percent of the country that identify as christian and so the people are the king the majority of the people are christian and they're looking up to their pastors and there's two two kinds of pastors one tells the king to uh stay asleep and the other tells the king to wake up you saw the movie the lord of the rings i love this scene it's a king theodon he has a spell cast on him he's decrepit he's like he's got this and there's two counselors in the scene one is this greasy ugly guy named wormtongue and he's telling the king to stay asleep don't wake up don't get involved yeah your country's going down the drain but just sleep a little longer and it's all gonna be over and there's another consular to the king and uh his name is gandalf and he like comes in and he like casts the devil out of the king and right before your eyes the king starts to wake up and he looks around and he says dark up in my dreams of late like yeah you've been out of it with a spell cast on you all these counselors telling you to go to sleep and just worry about your own relationship with god and forget the country you're going to hand on to your kids and so this pastor's job is to wake up the king the king is sitting in the pew right and so you have the two type of pastors one tells the king to go to sleep and another set of pastors like pastor jack hibbs throws ice water on their congregation and says wake up you don't just have the right to vote in america you're going to be held accountable to god for what happens in america so people say the most important thing is to bring people to christ i agree with you but the second most important thing is to preserve the freedom to do the most important thing if you're really convinced the gospel is the answer you're going to be involved wanting to keep the churches open so you can preach the gospel martin luther king jr says the church is the conscience of the state so in times of crisis people turn to christ we're facing a crisis you know there's always been crisis in world history and the crisis is an opportunity for you to show whose side you're on right it's sort of like you witness with your life and so you can be part of the problem ignore the problem or try to bring god's love to a hurting and dying world god loves you and uh or you stand up for righteousness or defend the defenseless there's you know we get through this crisis there'll be another one we get through that crisis there'll be another one so part of it is we want to turn things around but the other part of it is god is looking at you to see how you respond i keep thinking of that thought where peter denied christ to who's some some little girl that was around the fire i mean he thought there was going to be this big stand in front of these important people and it was this this girl thinking hey you were with jesus i saw you in there he's like it's like a fly around his face like get out of here get on my face i don't know the guy i don't know but jesus knew that that he was denying him right and so we go through situations where the lord is watching and uh i tell people it's like a guy you know um that shows his wife he loves her through his words and his actions so in times of crisis people turn to christ and it's in times of crisis that leaders rise up so you know someday you'll be dead it's a nice way to end a sunday morning talk but you're going to be in heaven because you believe that jesus died on the cross to pay for all your sins right and when we've been there ten thousand years bright shining as the sun with no less days to sing as praised them when we just began imagine you've been in heaven ten thousand years you're walking the streets of gold maybe you meet moses that'd be pretty cool and maybe moses will invite you over to his place i don't know what it's like in heaven but jesus did say in my father's house through many mansions 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 at the burning bush in the wilderness didn't burn up then the logs in the fire i heard one preacher say in heaven you'll travel as fast as you think and i'll probably show up late my wife will say where were yours i was thinking about something else but imagine being there in moses's living room maybe he's got a big living room like tonight maybe he's sitting right in front of you and after the small talk's over you reach over tap him on the shoulder saying moses tell us the story again i read the book i even saw the movie but here you are in person the room will get quiet moses will stand up and he'll say i was 80 years old and pharaoh the most powerful military leader in the world was threatening us he was charging in at us with these chariots and these swords and we were totally unarmed and i just stood there with my staff and i said god use me to deliver your people and the waves came in and swallowed 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 and say i was just a teenager and this thug goliath was mocking our god making fun of our faith and these grown-ups were too chicken and scared to do anything and i said enough of that took my little sling went out there and hit him in the head took his own sword and chopped his head off and one by one all these saints are going to tell their stories it's going to be exciting and then everyone in the room is going to look at you say you tell us your story what did you do when it was your turn to be on earth what were they saying about god in your country what did you do when the whole world was against you what did you do when it looked threatening when they were threatening to destroy what did you do and they were sitting on the edge of their seats what are you going to say i'd hate for any of us to be up there and for jesus to walk in the room and to have their a big screen and him showing all kinds of great things happen people coming to the lord and miracles and him saying this is what i had planned for you to do but you just didn't have enough faith and you look back at your life and you see that mountain that held you back was this little ant hill the fear of man what people were going to say i let that little and it'll keep me back from doing all this great stuff for the lord and you can't go back to earth and do anything else for the lord 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 the earth we still have breath in our lungs we still have feet that try the soil you still can do those things you'll be known for forever you know it's like a basketball game and jesus is the coach and you're on the bench and he comes up to you and he slaps you on the back and he says okay it's your turn get in the game you're like but but coach they're playing really tough out there yeah yeah i know it's your turn get in the games like but look somebody just got knocked down coach he goes yeah you're seven feet tall they are four feet tall you can do this greater is he
