00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.840
Real life presents the Jack Hibbs podcast with intention and boldness to proclaim

2
00:00:05.840 --> 00:00:10.360
truth, equip the saints and impact our culture. Hey what's going on in the

3
00:00:10.360 --> 00:00:15.680
world around us? I'm gonna try to offer up a little bit of an insight. What are

4
00:00:15.680 --> 00:00:21.080
we doing? Who are we raising? How are we going to ensure the next generation to

5
00:00:21.080 --> 00:00:27.320
think right and to not be infiltrated by the unslots of an agenda? Let's see

6
00:00:27.320 --> 00:00:31.160
what God's word has to say to these things.

7
00:00:32.440 --> 00:00:38.840

00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:44.120
Today, if this podcast lifts you up and encourages you to live a more fulfilled

9
00:00:44.120 --> 00:00:49.040
life in Christ, then make sure you leave us one of those five star ratings. To us,

10
00:00:49.040 --> 00:00:54.200
that's like saying amen or yes, then that rating will encourage others to

11
00:00:54.200 --> 00:01:01.000
listen. Now open your hearts to what God's word has to say to you. Here is Jack Hibbs.

12
00:01:01.000 --> 00:01:05.760
Hey everybody, welcome to the Jack Hibbs podcast. Jack Hibbs show. Thanks for being

13
00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:11.520
with us and very, very important times, obviously, in which we live in remarkable

14
00:01:11.520 --> 00:01:19.400
times, times that are forcing all people, everyone around the world, to consider

15
00:01:19.520 --> 00:01:26.200
their life, their lifestyle, their life's end, what's valuable, what's

16
00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:30.120
important, and the lines are being drawn. And I don't mean the proverbial

17
00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:36.440
statement, the lines are being drawn, the lines are actually being drawn. And the

18
00:01:36.440 --> 00:01:43.480
world is being exposed. We don't have the time today to discuss things that are

19
00:01:43.480 --> 00:01:47.440
forthcoming. I'm going to be putting together some podcasts here pretty soon,

20
00:01:48.160 --> 00:01:54.160
where I'll be reacting to some of these things that are going on and we'll look at what God's

21
00:01:54.160 --> 00:02:00.640
word says to these things, what does wisdom and logic say to these things. But for today,

22
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:08.000
for now, I would like you to consider a few things that I want to put out before you. And

23
00:02:10.880 --> 00:02:14.800
it goes to what I said a moment ago. What's going on in the world?

24
00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:23.280
You have to stop and admit for a moment, almost by itemizing some things. Is the world

25
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:37.920
getting safer or not? Is there an intensity among nations and their leaders for good or for

26
00:02:37.920 --> 00:02:48.000
war? The general population, and let's just pick on America where this podcast is originating from.

27
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:57.680
The general population, the atmosphere, or the optics of what's going on in the United States

28
00:02:57.760 --> 00:03:06.720
of America. Is it good or is it bad? Think about that. Is it is it trending toward hope or despair?

29
00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:19.840
Is America getting safer to walk around or not? Is what is called the church in America?

30
00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:29.120
Is it is it effective and powerful or ineffective and irrelevant?

31
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:39.680
You and I could go on almost all day long bringing up topics that deal with our daily realities

32
00:03:40.320 --> 00:03:46.000
and you would have to really stop and pause to consider what a friend of mine just told me the

33
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:52.720
other day. And he said, you know, in light of what's going on in America, when the context of

34
00:03:52.720 --> 00:04:03.040
our conversation was, how can an American president be kept out of an American city when the

35
00:04:03.040 --> 00:04:12.960
American city has become the most dangerous place by death rate in all of the industrialized

36
00:04:13.920 --> 00:04:23.360
nations combined? What am I talking about? The danger of walking down a street in Chicago.

37
00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:29.840
Trump's trying to put an end to that stuff, but because the government of Chicago will not in the

38
00:04:29.840 --> 00:04:35.680
state of Illinois will not do anything about protecting their citizens. Trump has gone into

39
00:04:35.680 --> 00:04:43.280
DC and it's been great. Trump is going into, you know, I mean by Trump, right? I mean Trump,

40
00:04:43.280 --> 00:04:51.280
I don't mean Trump is, but the Department of Justice, the Department of Homeland Security or

41
00:04:51.280 --> 00:04:57.200
the National Guard, because the police officers are not being given permission by the Democrat

42
00:04:57.200 --> 00:05:03.440
governors or mayors. And so these cities have become death traps. By the way, everything

43
00:05:03.440 --> 00:05:09.040
a Democrat touches, just name it. Go down the list. Everything a Democrat touches turns to death

44
00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:18.160
in one way or another. I know it's a harsh statement. Tough. It's true. They touch it, they kill it.

45
00:05:19.200 --> 00:05:23.760
They touch freedom, they kill it. They touch the economy, they kill it. They touch

46
00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:33.360
parental rights, they kill it. They touch infrastructure and they kill it. It's remarkable.

47
00:05:33.440 --> 00:05:39.120
How incredibly competent they are at destroying things, the party of death. And by the way,

48
00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:45.040
don't think I'm a Republican. Half of those guys are not jobs also. So there's enough to go around.

49
00:05:45.760 --> 00:05:51.440
But what I want you to consider, in Matthew chapter 24 verse 12, Jesus is speaking, friends,

50
00:05:51.440 --> 00:05:58.480
listen, theologically, Matthew chapter 24 deals with Israel in the last days of the Tribulation period.

51
00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:06.080
Israel of the last days in the Tribulation period, Matthew chapter 24. There is nothing in

52
00:06:06.080 --> 00:06:11.920
Matthew chapter 24 that has to deal with the church. Zero. Nothing at all.

53
00:06:14.000 --> 00:06:19.120
That said, in Matthew 24, 12, Jesus says, because lawlessness will abound.

54
00:06:20.480 --> 00:06:25.200
There's going to be come into time when lawlessness, the rule of law will evaporate

55
00:06:25.200 --> 00:06:33.520
and people will do lawless deeds and lawless things so much abounding because lawlessness will

56
00:06:33.520 --> 00:06:41.440
abound. The love of many will grow cold. And the word means the populace, the people, the masses

57
00:06:42.320 --> 00:06:47.200
will have callous hearts that will no longer care or love for fellow man.

58
00:06:48.880 --> 00:06:54.560
Ask yourself, do we live in that time? We're not even in the Tribulation period yet. And we're

59
00:06:54.560 --> 00:07:01.280
starting to see the opening throws of a culture. Now, you might say in the country that you're in,

60
00:07:01.280 --> 00:07:06.080
oh, man, you don't know. It's been like that in Sudan forever. I understand that.

61
00:07:07.280 --> 00:07:13.600
And you can name your country. But when you look at the bastion of global, right, the global

62
00:07:13.600 --> 00:07:19.360
bastion of Christianity, it would be America. But, man, you can't say that anymore.

63
00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:27.600
The effect of Christianity, biblical Christianity, I'm not talking about who raw raw. I'm talking about

64
00:07:27.600 --> 00:07:34.240
real Christians living the real Christian life in America. There's very, very few people.

65
00:07:35.440 --> 00:07:42.160
And the proof is you're starting to see a culture and a nation come apart at the seams.

66
00:07:43.280 --> 00:07:47.120
I can hear you say to me right now, but don't you know Trump's president? Don't you know that

67
00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:52.720
Cash Patel's FBI? Don't you know that Pete Hegsith is Department of War and Mark Rubio is

68
00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:58.160
is secretary. I know all that stuff. I know all that stuff. But listen, as much as they're trying to

69
00:07:58.160 --> 00:08:08.640
stop the evil, it's too late. By all means, keep fighting evil. We have to fight evil period. But

70
00:08:08.880 --> 00:08:18.000
this has been long time coming because the powers that be have been at work a long time corrupt in

71
00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:24.480
this culture, silencing the church, telling the believers to shut up and letting evil happen,

72
00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:30.880
open borders, undocumented people who turn out to be connected with terrorist gangs around the

73
00:08:30.880 --> 00:08:37.840
world and or Islamist who have come to commit jihad not too long ago in San Diego. A

74
00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:45.360
colonel in the Iranian army was arrested with three with six women in his apartment, his

75
00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:51.200
Heram. And he was here for nefarious reasons against the United States government. These kinds of

76
00:08:51.200 --> 00:08:56.160
things that are going on. I'm going to be bringing something to you in more detail later on. But

77
00:08:56.240 --> 00:09:06.960
just breaking news a day or two ago was a guy who at an employee at a hotel had an argument with

78
00:09:06.960 --> 00:09:13.440
his manager and wound up cutting his head off and kicking his head around the parking lot. Where did

79
00:09:13.440 --> 00:09:23.440
that happen in Gaza? No. In the United States. What's going on? What's going on? Here's what I

80
00:09:23.440 --> 00:09:28.320
think is what's going on. We live in a culture right now that has been detached from reality

81
00:09:29.200 --> 00:09:35.360
because we have sown to the wind as Isaiah said and now it's time to reap the whirlwind. This is

82
00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:43.360
what's going on. Evil is advancing. People's hearts have grown cold. And I think one of the

83
00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:51.360
forensic announcements of this being a fact is what I'm calling right now for arguments

84
00:09:51.840 --> 00:10:00.720
the synthetic effect. The synthetic effect is when I view the world around me through the lens of my

85
00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:12.320
camera and how I can be in the moment I can be actually witnessing the event around me but not.

86
00:10:13.840 --> 00:10:20.160
What do I mean? Now I'm going to date myself and that's okay. I'm fine with it. Go way back when

87
00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:27.040
the VHS cameras were invented. They're like this big. And then they got smaller and they had the

88
00:10:27.040 --> 00:10:32.240
mini cam and then they had the the handy cam and they got smaller and smaller until eventually they

89
00:10:32.240 --> 00:10:37.680
made it cell phones with cameras and you've got what you got today but it doesn't matter. The

90
00:10:37.680 --> 00:10:43.440
effect the synthetic effect is still the same and that is you can be on vacation and if you're

91
00:10:43.440 --> 00:10:48.480
taking a video of your vacation you know what I'm going to you know already about to say there is

92
00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:54.800
a mental disconnect where you spend two weeks. If you are two weeks in Fiji or in the Alps

93
00:10:56.000 --> 00:11:02.880
or in Maui and you record your vacation through the camera and then listen you get home

94
00:11:03.760 --> 00:11:10.560
and even though you can review the camera and you watch it you actually did not experience

95
00:11:10.560 --> 00:11:16.240
vacation. There's a detachment. It's something about the mind, the brain and how it works. You

96
00:11:16.320 --> 00:11:24.320
could be in paradise or you could be standing in front of the the world trade center on September 11th

97
00:11:24.320 --> 00:11:30.720
or Charlie Kirk's assassination. If you're viewing things through the synthetic effect of your lens

98
00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:36.480
of your camera there is a detachment there that you can never fix. It doesn't matter how many times

99
00:11:36.480 --> 00:11:43.600
you view the video even though you were there you viewed it through some process of your mind,

100
00:11:43.600 --> 00:11:51.520
your eyes, your brain and there's this disconnect where it's real but it doesn't feel very real.

101
00:11:52.400 --> 00:11:58.560
I know I was there but I only know it through the lens of this synthetic effect

102
00:12:01.280 --> 00:12:06.320
and the greatest manifestation of men's hearts growing cold because of lawlessness

103
00:12:07.280 --> 00:12:13.600
is what we're seeing right now where people even with the Charlie Kirk assassination but even a

104
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:19.600
day or two before that the Ukrainian woman who is horribly stabbed to death in the neck. There

105
00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:26.960
were people on their phones in that public transportation vehicle who never got involved, didn't get

106
00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:37.520
involved, turned away from the murder, they just turned away. They had an impossible coping mechanism

107
00:12:37.520 --> 00:12:44.320
failure. They couldn't deal with it. Now if they would have brought their camera fully around they

108
00:12:44.320 --> 00:12:49.360
probably could have watched that woman be murdered if they looked at it through the lens of their

109
00:12:49.360 --> 00:12:57.200
phone in this case they just turned away. There's a great danger with our children today for example

110
00:12:57.200 --> 00:13:03.040
who we see them all. Do we not all see this and it is it is a scourge, it's a ticking time bomb

111
00:13:03.040 --> 00:13:09.120
and when it goes off we ain't seen nothing yet and it is this. How many times do we see now parents

112
00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:15.120
going to a restaurant in McDonald's even and they get the kid a happy meal and they set the happy

113
00:13:15.120 --> 00:13:22.960
meal down in front of the kid and then they pick up their iPad or their laptop or their tablet

114
00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:31.280
device and they put on some cartoon and the kid is eating fixated on the synthetic screen

115
00:13:32.400 --> 00:13:39.120
and this kid is not engaging, he's not learning to be a human. There's no interaction

116
00:13:39.920 --> 00:13:46.320
but the parent doesn't care because there's some sort of pseudo piece quiet the kid is preoccupied,

117
00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:51.280
he's eating his happy meal, hey I just need a break, this is better than nothing,

118
00:13:51.920 --> 00:13:56.000
oh no no let's say we're going to pay the big price for this in the future because this kid is

119
00:13:56.000 --> 00:14:01.440
beginning to be trained if he's not already trained already to think that this is where you view

120
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:08.720
life, you view life through this lens and so what's interesting is we have this culture today that

121
00:14:08.720 --> 00:14:14.400
we want to see it. I want to see that, where did you see that? Is it an Instagram or is it an X?

122
00:14:14.880 --> 00:14:20.400
Where did you get, is it TikTok or where did you see that? I want to see it and then we see it

123
00:14:22.160 --> 00:14:30.880
and it actually it actually fuels the hardening of the heart. So in recent days we've seen

124
00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:34.960
all over the United States, as far as I know it's not going on anywhere else in the world,

125
00:14:35.760 --> 00:14:44.880
could be but I don't see it, where college university children, yes I said that correctly, college

126
00:14:44.880 --> 00:14:53.200
university, I'm not going to degrade the word adult, I'm not going to call them adults,

127
00:14:53.200 --> 00:15:05.520
they're college university children who are now on campus imitating Charlie Kirk getting shot,

128
00:15:06.240 --> 00:15:12.080
they're acting like they got shot and they're falling over off their chair, people are laughing,

129
00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:20.000
carrying on, how is that possible? Because I believe that they have so viewed and prepared

130
00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:29.680
their heart and soul in advance by viewing games or violence or AI type stuff to the point where

131
00:15:30.960 --> 00:15:39.040
when reality does happen to them is it is as serious or the lack thereof of watching a game on

132
00:15:39.040 --> 00:15:47.280
their synthetic screen. And so what happens is that they become so dull that they even turn around to

133
00:15:47.280 --> 00:15:57.680
mark. Folks listen, I say this with great seriousness and great sadness. People who cannot

134
00:15:57.680 --> 00:16:06.400
differentiate between reality and non-reality, please hear me out. When they begin to not only

135
00:16:06.880 --> 00:16:13.680
they're unable to have their emotions engage or disengage appropriately,

136
00:16:16.480 --> 00:16:24.800
what they view which is a reality event, they view it and process it as a non-reality event,

137
00:16:25.600 --> 00:16:33.760
they want to see it but they refuse to get involved in whatever it is. They want to see it

138
00:16:34.320 --> 00:16:44.080
but they won't get involved. We are watching right now the unfolding of a psychological psychology

139
00:16:46.080 --> 00:16:53.200
lab in our culture whereby we can study what's happening. Young people today cannot tell

140
00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:59.760
their emotions cannot tell what is reality and what is non-reality. Hear me out,

141
00:16:59.760 --> 00:17:05.920
there's going to sound crazy. Check this out though. They have gotten so calloused that

142
00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:16.080
A, it's either nothing is a reality. There is no reality or they've gotten so calloused that

143
00:17:17.200 --> 00:17:28.320
all things are the reality, meaning their reality is of like a dual nature. It is a multi-reality.

144
00:17:28.320 --> 00:17:39.040
It's a reality that they've been convinced is a reality but in reality they've checked out.

145
00:17:40.800 --> 00:17:46.960
It's the, I want to see the video footage but I refuse to do anything about it. I won't even

146
00:17:46.960 --> 00:17:52.400
speak against it. In fact, I'm going to make fun of it and when you live like that you actually

147
00:17:52.480 --> 00:17:59.200
create a reality that is false. It is your reality but it's because you've gone insane. You've

148
00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:07.440
gone nuts. You have so detached that you can video somebody being stabbed to death and you're okay

149
00:18:07.440 --> 00:18:18.240
with it. That friend from a theological point is what is called reprobate. The Bible says

150
00:18:19.120 --> 00:18:26.560
that in the last days there will be those who will be murders of mothers, murders of fathers

151
00:18:27.280 --> 00:18:40.080
debased ungodly, unloving, uncarrying, unforgiving, violent, brutal, traders. It says in the last days

152
00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:49.600
you want to talk about relevant. The Bible is still relevant. The Bible is waiting for tomorrow's

153
00:18:49.600 --> 00:18:56.800
headlines because the Bible already knows this and reveals this. That America right now isn't a very

154
00:18:56.800 --> 00:19:05.440
critical, critical condition and I'll prove it to you right now. Imagine if I went on right now with

155
00:19:05.440 --> 00:19:18.160
this microphone and I was on you name the network and I said it's very violent out there. Everybody

156
00:19:18.160 --> 00:19:23.200
would go yep sure is something needs to be done. Uh huh, something needs to be done. That's right.

157
00:19:23.200 --> 00:19:30.400
Something needs to be done. We need to take action. Yeah, take action. We need to do this. We know

158
00:19:31.280 --> 00:19:42.560
culturally that whenever Jesus Christ is preached to the masses, historically it results in what's

159
00:19:42.560 --> 00:19:48.720
called revivals and awakenings. People begin to think again. People's hearts begin to get soft

160
00:19:48.720 --> 00:19:55.920
again. People begin to reconsider. You know if I said that right now, people would

161
00:19:56.880 --> 00:20:01.200
who previously were agreeing with me until I got to the fifth point and the fifth point is

162
00:20:01.760 --> 00:20:07.680
let's take the next 30 days to preach Jesus Christ, the gospel of God. Let's post to 10 commandments

163
00:20:07.680 --> 00:20:13.760
up all over America. Give us 30 days to preach Christ. Watch what happens. No, you can't do that. You

164
00:20:13.760 --> 00:20:20.400
can't do that. No, no, no, wrong. No, no, no, and people will foam at the mouth. They'll go crazy

165
00:20:21.280 --> 00:20:26.880
because I mentioned Jesus because I mentioned the word of God because I mentioned the 10 commandments.

166
00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:31.920
What does that tell you? It tells you exactly what I'm talking about. There is a detachment from

167
00:20:31.920 --> 00:20:39.360
reality that when truth is interjected, their reality that they've created is so false synthetic

168
00:20:40.320 --> 00:20:47.920
that they cannot even begin to allow to entertain the cure because they have now been taken over

169
00:20:47.920 --> 00:20:53.840
by a debased mine, which means frankly, biblically, that Satan is governing their minds now.

170
00:20:54.400 --> 00:21:01.040
They're reprobate, they're debased, they're lost. The Bible says they are the sons of disobedience

171
00:21:02.560 --> 00:21:09.840
and Peter says they are like brute beast that need to be hunted down and taken away. Peter said

172
00:21:09.840 --> 00:21:17.520
that. Wow. And so here we are. We're living at a time right now that is so dead pan serious.

173
00:21:17.520 --> 00:21:22.480
How's it going to play out? And this is what I do not know. I don't know how it's going to play out

174
00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:30.480
because you look at AI deception now. Artificial intelligence deception is so perfectly advanced

175
00:21:30.480 --> 00:21:34.880
that it's become a lot of people's reality. And you say that's not true. Yes, it is true.

176
00:21:35.600 --> 00:21:39.760
In a recent poll that I'm going to have to show you the numbers on this. In a recent poll done by

177
00:21:39.760 --> 00:21:46.400
Quinnipi or whoever it was, I don't remember who it was. There was a recent poll that showed where

178
00:21:47.120 --> 00:21:55.040
more people between 15 and 25 would prefer to have an AI relationship with the device personally.

179
00:21:56.640 --> 00:22:01.840
Then the hassle of having a human friendship because it's just too hard to have.

180
00:22:02.160 --> 00:22:10.320
AI deception becomes a reality in altered universe. Today people are walking around in our world

181
00:22:10.320 --> 00:22:14.800
certainly in America with an altered universe going on in their head.

182
00:22:16.800 --> 00:22:21.040
Maybe you look at people and you can't believe what I'm saying is true because you still look

183
00:22:21.040 --> 00:22:26.240
at people and you see that person in need or that person needs help or that maybe he's hungry

184
00:22:26.400 --> 00:22:33.600
or maybe you're going to get them a hotel motel stay for the night. You know, shower because

185
00:22:33.600 --> 00:22:39.760
you care still you still care versus people who can't even see such things

186
00:22:41.520 --> 00:22:48.640
because in their reality either AI and or their heart being so hardened by viewing everything

187
00:22:48.640 --> 00:22:55.440
through the synthetic lens that that effect has taken them over. And they see something

188
00:22:57.040 --> 00:23:03.280
that is horrible and they cannot even have empathy or sympathy.

189
00:23:04.160 --> 00:23:08.640
And then I want to wrap this up by saying this. It is so demonic right now

190
00:23:11.520 --> 00:23:16.000
that I don't want you to waste any moment in discerning the age and the times in which we're in

191
00:23:16.000 --> 00:23:25.760
right now because in our world today Satan is a foot and the things of Satan are being promoted

192
00:23:27.120 --> 00:23:48.000
so much so that if if Islamists and Hamas take captive 100 hostages, Jewish hostages

193
00:23:48.800 --> 00:23:55.040
so what's the big deal? Who cares? What's the thing? Oh, well, whatever. You see why don't

194
00:23:55.040 --> 00:24:00.560
if anyone ever said that. They may not have said it. They didn't say anything. You went on about

195
00:24:00.560 --> 00:24:05.520
your work. You just did your thing and well, you know, that's what that's what they do. They take

196
00:24:05.520 --> 00:24:17.440
they take Jews hostage. And then Israel cares enough to go and attack Hamas to get their people out.

197
00:24:18.400 --> 00:24:23.840
And notice the whole rhetoric is Israel is slaughtering people and it's a genocide.

198
00:24:24.480 --> 00:24:29.760
They got to be stopped, sanction them, United Nations. You need to condemn their actions.

199
00:24:31.040 --> 00:24:38.000
You see what's going on? The book of Isaiah tells us, I do believe it's chapter 5 of the book of

200
00:24:38.640 --> 00:24:47.920
Isaiah. I may be wrong. But the book of Isaiah God says in the last days, men will call good evil

201
00:24:47.920 --> 00:24:54.480
and evil good. They will say light for darkness, darkness for light. We're living in those days

202
00:24:54.480 --> 00:25:01.440
right now. The only hope for America you should know this by now is not going to come from the

203
00:25:01.440 --> 00:25:08.960
White House. It's impossible. It's not going to come from your state capital. It's impossible.

204
00:25:10.080 --> 00:25:15.280
You say, Jack, are you going to give up on getting people to register to vote and to vote

205
00:25:15.280 --> 00:25:20.880
biblical worldview values? No, never. I'm not saying a bend to that. We have to shine the light.

206
00:25:20.880 --> 00:25:26.960
We have to be witnesses and we have to be engaged in our republic, of course. But don't expect morality,

207
00:25:27.600 --> 00:25:39.600
healing and salvation to come from political powers. Our politicians today are trying to deal with

208
00:25:39.600 --> 00:25:50.160
problems that politics cannot heal, that politics cannot cure. Because America has ejected God

209
00:25:51.120 --> 00:25:59.280
from our schools, from our government, from the halls of power, from the civic square,

210
00:26:00.240 --> 00:26:07.920
we are now reaping the results of a godless age. The scriptures tell us in Proverbs chapter 4,

211
00:26:07.920 --> 00:26:14.400
verse 23, guard your heart with all diligence for out of its spring-sforth the issues of life.

212
00:26:15.360 --> 00:26:21.360
That's the cure. But if we don't guard our hearts, these are the beginning of sorrows

213
00:26:23.280 --> 00:26:29.840
in our nation. And I pray that with all that's taking place, at least God's people will wake up.

214
00:26:30.800 --> 00:26:38.160
But that presupposes God's pastors waking up and proclaiming truth from the pulpits.

215
00:26:39.120 --> 00:26:44.400
The answer is in the church, the answer is in the word of God. We've got to get back to him

216
00:26:45.040 --> 00:26:54.640
if there's hope for this country. Heavy podcast, I know. All true. Be careful, protect your children

217
00:26:55.600 --> 00:27:01.760
from social media, protect your children from screen time, protect your children from devices,

218
00:27:01.760 --> 00:27:07.680
and protect yourself. Be an example by all means. Until next time, God bless.
