You are a part of that vision. So please join us at chosengenerationradio.com chosengenerationradio.com and sign up for our emails today. We are so grateful to be connected with you, my listeners. You are some of the most engaged, responsive, loving and caring people I know. I need to bring to your attention an urgent need for our ministries in India.

While there has become a focus on the Uighurs in China, our ministries in Jammu, Kashmir and Punjab are being terrorized by those same Uighurs, the Taliban and the mounting CCP army at the border of India. Between these threats and the lockdowns, we find ourselves in need of additional financial support. I am asking for your help to support these pastors and their families, our orphans, our widows, our Bible students and our community outreaches. $15 will feed a pastor's family for a month, $20 funds our sewing school instructor and $150 a week funds our base operations, the orphans, the Bible school students, even the sewing school and our senior indigenous pastor Samuel.

Please call us, contact me today and make your best donation. Thank you and God bless you. Welcome to Chosen Generation with your host, Pastor Greg Young. But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people that you should shoe forth the praises of him who has called you out of darkness into his marvelous light, which in time past were not a people, but are now the people of God, which had not obtained mercy, but now have obtained mercy.

Where no topic is off limits and everything is filtered through biblical glasses. And now here's your host, Pastor Greg. And welcome to the program. Great to have you with me. Thanks so much for being here. I know you have a choice of where you can listen each and every day. And I thank you for keeping it tuned into chosen generation radio.

Well, folks, I have to tell you that we had an incredible first hour. And if you missed any part of it, I truly hope that you will go back and watch the podcast. Watch the video. Don Jans and I spoke about medical tyranny, communism, Marxism, what they're doing, how they're trying to take over our country today. And just very, very insightful.

We also played a video. If you haven't seen any of the Thomas Wrens and Lee Dundas as they testify before Senator Ron Johnson and his committee, you really need to watch this because the medical tyranny and the numbers, 300 percent increase in cancer, 300 percent increase in miscarriages, 1000 percent increase in neurological damage to military members in the last year since they started mandating injections compared to the five year, the previous five year average. That's scary to think about. And some of the numbers that that Lee came up with, they actually know because the military is keeping statistics relative to this for the CDC. They turn these over to them and they changed one of the numbers. They know that 20 million Americans have been negatively impacted by the injection, according to sworn, affidavit testimony and statistics and documents. And Ron Johnson showed the kinds of documents that he gets. They are literally pages that are completely blacked out. Well, Thomas Wrens and Lee Dundas and their FOIA received the information.

It's not blacked out and it's not blacked out, actually, not because of the FOIA, but because of the whistleblowers who have the documentation, who have come forward, who have sworn affidavits from the DOD. 202-224-3121 is the switchboard phone number at the Capitol, 202-224-3121. If you're sitting and you're saying to yourself, well, pastor, what can I do? Call the Capitol switchboard and ask to speak to your congressional member. Ask to speak to your senators.

Demand that they investigate the secretary of defense and the DOD and respond to the DOD whistleblowers who've come forward with documentation showing the injuries that are occurring to our military members. Our military members put their lives on the line. They swear an oath.

I swore it. We defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. We swear and sign on the dotted line that we will die, shed our blood to save this nation and defend it against enemies. And now the enemy is within. The enemy is poking and jabbing our military members and they are suffering irreparable damages. And the only people that can stop this is you and me. We, the people of the United States of America, we're the only ones that can stop this. If you're a Christian, if you're a minister, you have a moral obligation, a moral responsibility to stand in the gap for these military members. And you can do that by making a phone call today. 202-224-3121, 202-224-3121.

Be nice, be kind, but be firm. Ask to speak to your congressional member and then call back and talk to each one of your senators and leave a message for Pokem Joe in the White House and tell him, hey, Pokem China Joe, we are tired of you poking our military. You want to disarm a country? You want to take over a nation? Look at what Israel did.

Think about this for a minute. In the Bible, there is a story about how the Israelites had an enemy and they convinced that enemy to circumcise themselves. And on the day that they circumcised themselves, they then went in and they killed every one of the military age men. Because why?

Because they couldn't fight back. Look what's happening to our country. Our young men and our young women who signed up, who signed up with trust in the system, trust in their superior offers, that's what they're taught in basic training. And they have been lied to and deceived. There's another lie and another deception that is falling upon America and it continues to persist.

I talk about it a lot on this program and I have an expert to help me and to guide us in understanding. One of the main enemies of our country that has come into this nation and has established actual physical locations within our continent. They have invaded us and they are plotting our destruction and taking over communities. I want to welcome Al-Rasouli. I can't put his picture up because of the death threats that he has received, but I welcome him. Al-Rasouli, welcome. It's so good to have you on the program today.

Thank you very much for having me. I'm going to go ahead and say this because it's the truth. There is an unrestricted warfare being waged against us by the Chinese Communist Party. There is unrestricted warfare being waged against us by Islam and there is unrestricted warfare being waged against us by Marxist communists and global elitists within our own nation. I just had Doug Giles on with his new book, Psalms of War, Prayers that Literally Kick Butt. These are prayers that we should be praying over our country, but my point to this is that if I say here now that we on the right, that Christians are in a war, oh my gosh, that's it. Pastor Greg's done.

They're all done. We've got to investigate him. We've got to throw him into one of the American gulags because Pastor Greg has said that Christians are at war. And yet Christianity is the most persecuted religion in the world today.

Anything you'd like to add to that, my good friend? No, I've always repeatedly said that in the 21st century, the most persecuted people are the Christians and nobody is listening. By the way, Christianity is not at war with Islam. It's the other way around. Islam has been at war with Christianity for 1400 years and continuing.

I know it sounds like semantics, but it isn't. Christianity is not at war with Islam. Islam has been at war with Christianity for 1400 years and continuing. And your worst enemies are within America. And they are the Muslims in America, the Sharia compliant Muslims in America, like CAIR, Council on American-Islamic Relations, or ISNA, the Islamic Society of North America. These entities are disloyal to the United States of America because they're Sharia compliant, which means they follow Muhammad's Quran and Muhammad's traditions. And Sharia is the nemesis of the American Constitution. In fact, Sharia is the nemesis of every decent thing that a human being would aspire for.

That thing was not complicated. And if somebody called you a racist, tell them, yes, we are proud to be a racist in defense of our people. Because the most intolerant, the most hate-mongering, war-mongering, misogynist, racist, duplicitous, treasonous group of people are Muslims. And this is not racism. This is not Islamophobia.

This is fact. And if you can find an imam or anybody from CAIR to debate me this subject, I'll be more than happy to oblige you. Find one.

You will never be able to do so. Talk to me about a couple of the verses that you use. I know that you've got about three minutes, so give me the three-minute speech about what true Sharia compliant Islam is about according to their own writings. Okay. Let's start with jihad. I'm going to quote a name and verse, and anybody listening can Google it instantly. Al-Baqarah, chapter 2, verse 2, 1, 6, it says, Jihad, holy fighting in Allah's cause is ordained for you Muslims though you dislike it.

And it may be that you dislike a thing which is good for you and that you like a thing which is bad for you. Allah knows, but you do not know. So jihad, which is physical warfare because of Allah, in Arabic, it is mandated upon every single Muslim on the planet. Mandated.

It's not negotiable. So any Sharia compliant Muslim, when I say my Sharia compliant Muslim, means a fundamentalist Muslim. Means a Muslim who follows the Quran and the Sunnah 100%. Is that understood to start with?

I believe so. Okay. Now I'm going to quote from Hadith, which has a tradition. Sahih Muslim Hadith 4631. It says, I heard Muhammad say, I love that I should be killed in Allah's cause, jihad. That I should be brought back to life and be killed again in jihad.

And he repeated this three times. Sahih al-Bukhari, 4.50 narrated by Anas bin Malik, the prophet said, a single endeavor of fighting in Allah's cause is better than the world and whatever is in it. Nothing is ambiguous in the Arabic language or the English translation of the Quran.

Absolutely nothing. Sahih al-Bukhari, 4.73 narrated by Abdullah bin Abi Musawfa, Allah the apostle said, no, which is K-N-O-U, no, that is knowledge. That paradise is under the shade of storms. Ladies and gentlemen, there is absolutely not a single word of love in the order of the Quran.

In over 6,230 verses of the Quran, nothing of love between man and man and man and God doesn't appear. And hang on just a minute. We're going to take a quick break. We back right after this brief break. We're going to take a quick break. We're going to take a quick break. We're going to take a quick break. We're going to take a quick break. We're getting up in the morning feeling like you and your bed had a bad night, still tired. Stop!

It doesn't have to be that way. That's why Mike Lindell started MyPillow. And after his success helping people sleep better with the pillow, Mike decided to go all in.

He found Giza Cotton for the best sheets and created the ultimate mattress stopper. And since stores won't carry his product, he's passing that savings on to you.

And we greatly would appreciate that you support our radio ministry and you also support our ministry in India. All right, folks. So here's here's another one of those pictures. I'm showing them a picture of of of a pastor who had acid thrown on his face by a Muslim. These are the kinds of things that that they're doing and and and no one's talking about it.

No one wants to address these issues. You were beginning to share with us these kinds of horrific, horrific things that are happening. Here's another picture, folks. This is a man. This is a real live person, a Christian, and he has been murdered and then tied to a wooden structure that's almost like a cross.

It's a wooden structure and he's been tied up there. And then they have put Islamic writings on him that speak to the things that you're going to talk about right now. Al-Rasouli, go right ahead, please.

Very important Americans understand something. The items that I'm quoting are in the Quran. They are not written by Christians or Jews or Zionists. These are Islamic documents.

And when a Muslim speaks about being Islamophobic or racist, you have to turn around and tell them you're a pathological liar. Islamic diplomacy is in the Quran. Now I'm going to quote you the verses.

Al-Ma'idah, chapter 5, verse 51. For he who believes Muslims take not the Jews and the Christians for friends and protectors. They are but friends and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that tells to them for friendship is of them. Ladies and gentlemen, the implication of the last sentence is of immense importance.

And I repeat it. And he amongst you that tells to them for friendship is of them means if a Muslim becomes friends with Christians and Jews or even with Hindus and Buddhists, he becomes a traitor to Islam. And as a traitor to Islam, he becomes an enemy of Islam. This is Islamic supremacy of the first order.

Another one. Al-Imran, chapter 3, verse 28. Let not the believers, Muslims take for friends or helpers, unbelievers, Jews, Christians, Buddhists or Hindus. Again, it's in the Quran.

This is not propaganda. Al-Imran, chapter 3, verse 85. If anyone desires a religion other than Islam submission to Allah, never will it be accepted of him.

If this is not racism of the first order, if this is not supremacy of the first order, what is? How dare Muslims accuse others of being racist when they are the most obnoxious racists on the planet? Based on their own scripture, this is not propaganda. This is their scripture. Al-Imran, chapter 8, verse 55, it says, The vilest creatures in the sight of Allah are those who are bent on denying the truth, which is Islam. Means every creature on the planet is a vile animal.

Most important of all, Atawba, chapter 9, verse 29. Those who believe not in Allah nor in the last day, nor hold that forbidden which shall be forbidden by Allah and his apostle Muhammad, nor acknowledge the reason of truth in Islam, even if they are of the people of the book, Christians and Jews, until they pay the jizya, which is an honest penalty for not being Muslim, and they have to make with willing submission and feel themselves humiliated. This is racism.

This is unbelievable degree of hatred. And it is always the Muslims who pretend that they are the victim. Never in 1400 years of Islam has Islam been a victim. Never.

They have always been to victimize them. And again, I challenge any human being listening, whether Muslim or an opposed to Islam, to come on this show and debate me. And reach us at chodongenerationradio.com. We'll be back with more after this. Use the code Pastor Greg for incredible discounts and help feed starving children.

Thank you. Now, when I came in that prison, we had to live with seven hundred prisoners in a room that was built for two hundred. Even inside that concentration camp, Corey Ten Boom describes how she saw God's incredible faithfulness on today's Focus on the Family Minute. It was terrible, dirty, and very soon our clothing were full of lice. Those lice have caused many sicknesses, but in some way they have helped us. For the gods would never come into our room. They were afraid to get lice from us.

That was good. The Bible was a forbidden book, but twice a day we had a Bible message in Mark 28, and God had used for that angels and lice. God can use everything. More from Corey at family minute dot org.

In 2004, I was given three to six months to live as my pituitary gland and adrenal gland shut down in both instances. God and his natural cures saved and preserved my life.

And ladies and gentlemen, we are we are in for such a treat, such a treat. I'm just always so excited to have my next guest on the program. He has been praying for my healing and my health since the accident.

Call has called my family. As a matter of fact, my my wife and my kids used to just absolutely look forward to hearing from him. And I'm so thrilled to call him my friend. I want to welcome to the program Rafael Cruz.

Rafael, welcome. It's so good to have you. Pastor Greg, it's so great to be with you. Well, I'm excited because we are going to be back together on a monthly basis with you. And you're going to be joining me for a segment called Calling All Pastors to Lead from the Front.

And I had I had Doug Giles on earlier this morning in our first hour. He's got a number one best selling book out. It's one of the number one meditation books in in in the world, actually. It's called Psalms of War, prayers that literally kick butt. And it's it's it's the you know, it's the David prayers, right? It was the prayers of David when when the enemies of Israel would try to take down Israel. David would go and pray powerful prayers that he wrote in the Psalms against the enemies trying. And I, Rafael, I don't think there's any question, but that there are enemies of this nation within this country that are trying to take down America and undo its Christian heritage and and and and put us in bondage.

Absolutely. And I'll tell you, as you were talking about the prayer for war and so forth. You know, in my last trip to Israel, I went to Caesarea Philippi and Caesarea Philippi was the most idolatrous city in the time of Jesus. It was a Hellenistic city where they sacrificed babies to the devil.

They threw them down a deep pit that was called the Gates of Hell. This is where Jesus asked the disciples, whom do you say that I am? And Peter made that glorious declaration. Thou art the Christ, the son of the living God. And Jesus said, Peter, flesh and blood has not revealed this unto you, but my Father, which is in heaven. And upon this rock, not Peter, but the declaration of Peter, thou art the Christ, the son of the living God. Upon that rock, I will build my church and the Gates of Hell shall not prevail against it. You know, Pastor Greg, if you ask 100 pastors, what does that word church, that word ecclesia mean?

Probably all of them will say, well, it means the cold hours. And that's not incorrect, but that was not the primary meaning of that word 2,000 years ago when people, when Jesus referred to the church. That word ecclesia in that Hellenistic society meant that ruler, the movers and the shakers, the men who sat at the gate, the decision makers, the leaders. And that's what God is calling the church to be. And if you understand that, you understand that when Jesus said, and the Gates of Hell shall not prevail against the church, that that is not a defensive position. That is an offensive position. We storm the Gates of Hell and we kick down the Gates of Hell.

Yeah. And the church has failed. The church is leading from behind the church. Unfortunately, a great many pastors are so afraid of not being politically correct that they're hiding behind the pulpit, tickling men's and women's ears while the world is going to hell in a handbag. And our neighborhood is going to hell in a handbag. And let me tell you, Jesus said to whom much is given, much is required. We have a responsibility. We have a, we have a, and we go in the power of God. You know, again, another. When you look at the Matthew 28, 18 and 19, the Great Commission, it begins by Jesus saying all power for all authority, heaven and earth, has been given unto me.

What are the next three words? Go be therefore. So in other words, Jesus is saying, because all power and authority has been given unto me, unto Jesus, therefore you go. That, Pastor Greg, is the delegation of authority for us to move forward in the power and authority of the name of Jesus.

And we need to do that. We need to move forward and storm the gates of hell. You know, it's interesting in Matthew 11, 12, and from the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence and the violent take it by force. Folks, understand there was, you know, there wasn't a mythology of a war. That wasn't a mythology. There was a war in heaven. And there has been a war here on earth. That's why when Jesus began his ministry, he pronunciation the kingdom of heaven is at hand. It's why he went out and did battle for 40 days and 40 nights with Satan before he did anything else.

Absolutely. And you know something, if you look at Luke chapter 19, the parable of the pound, what did the master say to his servant when the master went away? Occupy till I come. We are to be about our father's business until Jesus comes back. Amen. Amen. And and it begins, look, America started with 56 ministers signing a declaration of independence and many of those same ministers signing the Constitution of the United States of America, putting their life and their liberty and all of their possessions and everything on the line. Absolutely. And you know something?

We can go before that. When the building arrived at Plymouth, Massachusetts, before they got off the boat, they sent a document called the main flower compact. And it begins by stating their purpose for the glory of God and the advancement of the Christian faith. That was the stated purpose of America. And actually, the American Revolution was triggered by the First Great Awakening by men like Jonathan Edwards and George Whitfield and many other pastors that were at the forefront. That was the spark that ignited the American Revolution. And even if you look at the Declaration of Independence, I count 26 grievances against King George. What most pastors don't know is that each and every one of those 26 grievances were preached from the churches of America for 10 years.

It was pastors calling out King George for the atrocities that the British were perpetrating against the American people. And the question that begs an answer is, where are those pastors today? Praise God for those that are standing in the gap, not just in prayer, but also in action.

And unfortunately, they are small minorities. And God is calling the body of Christ to become, again, the ecclesia, the leaders, not the followers. Let me tell you, because Jesus said it very clearly, if a pastor does not lead, the sheep are scattered like sheep without a shepherd.

Yeah, absolutely. And remember the challenge, you know, I talk about this, Raphael, the challenge that those ministers gave to their congregants and to those who made that decision and followed them was, whom shall you serve? Shall you serve King George? And all of the unjust things that he's doing, which was the list that was a part of the Declaration of Independence, and who had pronunciated himself to be a god, or will you serve King Jesus?

That's right, that's right. You know, Deuteronomy 30, 19, it is such a relevant scripture for today. God is speaking through Moses and he says, see, I set before you today life and death, the blessing and the curse. That is the choice today. And then he says, so choose life.

I mean, it ought to be a no brainer. But then he says, so choose life that you and your descendants may live. Let me tell you, the really radical thing that he's saying is this battle is not even about us. It's about the future of our children and our children's children. America is at a crossroads. And Pastor Greg, this is the sovereign truth. If we lose this battle that is right before us, our children and our grandchildren will not have a future.

This is how critical this is. We are seeing the forces of evil moving at a precipitous velocity to take over America. Marxism is just lurking over America, trying to scramble all the liberties for which those pastors and all those patriots put their lives on the line. So that you and I and all our children and our children's children could have a future. And I'll tell you what, I don't think we have a choice. We need to say like the prophet Isaiah, hear my Lord, hear my Lord's truth.

So I'll tell you, I can never forget the words of Dietrich von Hoppe in Nazi Germany. Hold that thought. Hold that thought. We got to go to a break. Hold that thought. Raphael, we got to go to a break.

Dietrich von Hoppe when we get back. Remember, folks, God is calling you and me for today. It's a critical time to be vigilant in the defense of our freedom.

It is Friday, so I just want to wish you a very good weekend. We're in our last segment. And of course, Rafael Cruz is our special guest that is with us.

We're talking about getting engaged. For a number of years, Rafael, I have talked about this idea and you mentioned it and Doug talked about it earlier in the program. But the idea that, well, you know, look, it's supposed to get really bad and so we're just going to kind of wait and hopefully it gets bad enough that God comes back and fixes everything. Almost in a way, disassociative mindset of the church that, well, we're just going to let the world all, you know, go to hell in a handbasket and we're going to hunker down in our four little walls and then God's going to fix all this. But from what you've shared, Jesus said the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

He reestablished that all of this belongs to him. And it sounds to me then like if we're doing that, that we're kind of like the nine that were waiting for the bridegroom that, you know, that didn't have their oil and weren't prepared when he walked by. Well, okay, you know, passivity, I don't see it in Christianity. People have warped the gospel to think, well, would you sit at home waiting for Jesus to come back? You know, we're going to be snatched out and we don't have a responsibility.

Listen, let me go back to the last thought before the break. What Bonhoeffer said, he said, silence in the face of evil is evil itself. And then his next statement was this, God will not hold us guiltless. God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak.

Not to act is to act. We have a responsibility. And you know, we have a stewardship responsibility over this country.

We are so blessed to live in the greatest country on the face of the earth. A country that, as I said before, was set apart for the propagation of the gospel. And we have a stewardship responsibility to preserve the liberty, you know, Galatians chapter 5 verse 1, stand fast, therefore in the liberty where a wisp cries and settles free, and do not entangle yourself again with a yoke of bondage. Unfortunately, many Christians and even many pastors are putting themselves in bondage because of not rocking the boat.

Just go along to get along. Wokeism has invaded the church and even all the ungodly doctrines are being permitted in the church on the fear of not offending somebody else. Well, I'll tell you what, that was not Jesus. Jesus confronted the political establishment. Jesus confronted all the corruption in the priesthood, in the Sanhedrin. I'll tell you, Jesus was not a quiet, passive guy.

He was upfront. And we need to be too. We need to occupy till he comes. Jesus was not, you know, everybody knows, I mean, yes, Jesus Christ laid down his life and died for our sins and defeated sin and death.

By the way, which is a here and now, not a, oh, we got to wait for it to happen. No, Jesus said it is finished. But Raphael, in addition to that, he wasn't crucified because Pilate and the Romans or the Jews understood somehow that he was going to be the one that was sacrificed for the sins of the world. He was crucified because he threatened their authority. He threatened their power structure. That's why he was crucified.

And you don't get to that place if you're just passive and quiet and, you know, and passing out daisies. That's right. And I'll tell you, when we see all the ungodliness coming out of Washington, D.C., we at the church cannot remain silent.

As a matter of fact, pastors need to do some research. There are two bills that have passed the House. They're they're sitting in the Senate.

And if we lose the filibuster, they will pass in the Senate. One of them is called H.R. 5. H.R. 5, if it passes, they will destroy the church as we know it.

If H.R. 5 passes and a homosexual or a transgender or even a Satan worshiper comes to your church demanding a job and you deny him a job, you will be put in prison. If you stand in the pulpit and say homosexuality is a sin, you will be put in prison. That is H.R.

5. That's already happening in Canada. In Canada, let me tell you, in Canada, if you try to convert a transgender or homosexual and show them the sinful ways, that is punishable with five years in prison. And in Canada, if you say homosexuality is a sin, you're put in prison.

That is coming to America if we don't wake up. And I'll tell you what, the pastor, again, I'll repeat what I say earlier, to whom much is given, much is required. Pastors bear greater responsibility. We must cease to hide behind the pulpit. Here's the thing, Rafael, I am absolutely against abortion and I believe in life from conception and I'm glad the Supreme Court is getting ready to hear some cases that may change Roe v. Wade and may finally protect those unborn.

But here's something to think about. They don't perform abortions at the front of the church, Rafael, but they do perform sodomy. That is, is endorsed at the altar at the front of the church.

Think about that. It is a misnomer to call what's happening in American culture. It is a perversion of God's morality and God's principles. But I'll tell you what, we are going to have to one day stand before the judgment of Christ. And, you know, the Bible says we will have to render an account for every idol word we give. I believe the opposite is also true.

We're going to have to render an account of all the words we should have said, but we were too chicken to say. And I'll tell you again, pastor has the leadership responsibility to lead the flock and those who say, I just want to preach the gospel. Let me tell you, if HR 5 passes, there will not be a liberty to preach the gospel. You have to preach inclusiveness. You cannot say Jesus is the only way because that is discriminatory.

That is not inclusive enough. You will be held accountable if you preach what the word of God said. Jesus didn't say, I am a way. No, no, no. Jesus said, I am the way.

No one comes to the Father except through me. Amen. Amen. But I'll tell you what, that is not politically correct today.

No. And a lot of churches don't preach that, Rafael. And a lot of Christians, according to George Barna's research, which I know you know, don't don't believe that. Unfortunately, they believe there are many ways. There's no such thing as absolute truth. Ladies and gentlemen, there is absolute truth. The Bible is the only truth and Jesus Christ is the only pathway to heaven. The good news is, is that the work that he did will completely change your life and save you.

And if you're not in a church where they tell you that and they teach you how that change takes place, you need to find a different church. Reach out to me. chosengenerationradio.com. Rafael Cruz, he'll be back with us next week.

And we're so excited to get started with him on a monthly basis. I'll be back. At the end of the day, when I stand before my God, I do not want him to ask me, what did you do with the world that I sent my son to die for and redeem? How did you fight the good fight to share the good news and keep evil in check?

How did you shine your light and be a beacon of truth in the darkness? Did you shrink back in fear when they demanded you change my message? Did you call evil good and good evil? Did you forsake my love for that of another, lying with the adulterer and setting up a new idol in your life? Have you defiled yourself through compromise and tolerance of that which I call an abomination? Have you innocent blood on your hands for the children murdered on your watch and the young ones perverted in their way by evil men, seeking their own comfort and reviling me?

No. At the end of the day, I want him to simply say the evidence is in. Well done, thou good and faithful servant. I love my God and I love his creation, and I will go to my grave telling the world that evil is evil and only God is good, and Jesus came to save the world. That no matter the evil in the world, I will never give up, and in spite of the hate, I will love in truth. God bless you all, and may love remove the veil so you all might enter into his rest.
