There's only about 1/2 hour from Newark we flew in last night you find out about the big on the website asked Dr. Brown a SK DR Brown.org Seawright on the itinerary.

Okay, 8663 freight 7884 is a number to call you got questions, we've got answers few special announcements for you.

Are you ready next week on Tuesday it is going to be noncharismatic calling day. This is not as we done the past cessation is: they were rev asked you to try to prove your point. Try to show me from the Scriptures that sensationalism is true rather, I want you to tell me what problems you have with charismatics what issues you have with charismatic teaching why you think certain groups are called to certain people or false teachers or preachers want to be able to ask your questions honestly. I had Pastor Bill Johnson on earlier this week. Might my goal and having a mom was not to cross-examine him or attack. He'd written a new book called God is good and the publisher asked if I would have the most publishers put out many of my books and I solicit a love bill. We've we've worked together in different settings.

I preached it at his church. In years past, but there's a lot of controversy runs ministry. So if he's willing to let callers asking the tough questions and living from for meter to raise questions, then by all means let's have a month so we did just that. I played some audio clips for for him that that were really damning on his ministry, a race of other issues that have been raised to me, but I told folks: won't nobody call this challenge and rid of the calls we didn't take that day that were were just off-topic, completely off-topic, not for Bill. This general question for me on some other issues but phone lines are open and we announced it to hundreds of thousands to millions of people through social media. So people can recall that they didn't and what you week we gave folks the opportunity. In any case, I want to extend an opportunity. Understanding that there are abuses in the charismatic movement of written whole books about the abuses and issues, and recognizing that the many wonderful things the Holy Spirit does make it recognize that there are valid questions. I want to give you the opportunity to call in again the number is always the same 866-34-TRUTH that will be Tuesday this hour right at you baby. I'll be the one here won't be Bill Johnson or others, and any questions that you have the two arrays about the charismatic movement is not is not to prove a scriptural point get in a debate with me. You have to be armed to the teeth is no call was your honest questions right then. Wednesday Wednesday which is October 19, October 18 this hour noncharismatic calling day October 19 the whole first hour Dr. Lance wall now will discuss his book about Donald Trump called God's chaos candidate. If you have issues with voting for Trump if you don't see how you can vote for him as a Christian. If you feel there the ethical compromise. If you just have questions about whether he be fit for the presidency.

I want you to call in and Dr. wall now will be here to answer your questions all have honest questions for Lance. He's a friend as well. We don't get to spend a lot of time together but had a delightful couple hours we got around 1/2 we got to hang out together in the spent together in Dallas little over a week ago and I got to hear more of his ideas about Donald Trump. So that's can be your chance to call and if you have a problem with voting for Trump of Apollo, they give a Christian voting, that'll be the time to call him alright so come back and going straight to your calls always a great quote from Prime Minister Netanyahu and it's the light a fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown. So much for joining us on the line of fire. Each 6487 84 you got questions. We got answers going to the phones momentarily, but I know if you heard this we talked about it on the air yesterday after the Jewish Thursday but UNESCO which is an arm of the UN, UNESCO voted and said that the Jewish people.

The people of Israel have no connection to the Temple Mount is Temple Mount Western Wall. They have no connection to it. This is exclusively a Muslim connection is opposite. Palestinian initiated concept and the resolution was supported by 24 states, including Russia and China. Six countries including USA opposed 26 abstained 26 abstained. I mean this is complete, absolute nonsense of Prime Minister Netanyahu said that the UNESCO theater, meaning theater of the absurd show goes on today took a ridiculous decision denying the connection between the Jewish people in the Western Wall. He said it's like saying that the Chinese have no connection to the Great Wall of China and the Egyptians have no connection to the pyramids exactly so on. By the way, by the way Donald Trump has weighed in on us.

He said UNESCO exhibited quote an enormous anti-Israel bias by ignoring Jewish ties to the Temple Mount. Good for him, appreciate him saying it 866-34-TRUTH that will start in Midland, North Carolina Bob walking to the line of fire. Hello Bob how you doing your speaking right your phone and on speakerphone right right okay great and today and all day like that if you have to condense it for three minutes.

Can you just put your question out and I'll do my best to respond.

Okay I will call that six months ago I had their bearbaiting and what man at that time and start searching for Bob to see what I'm having a hard time with this quality because something's wrong with her phone connection.

So if you could.

I know you want to some very serious.

Sorry to hear if you could just share with the question is, that would be great.

Okay. Article and you about why you yeah all right out just an apology connection yet limp, let me say this very plainly. I'm not looking to a presidential candidate to do the work of the church. Thank you for putting it out sir. I'm not looking to a presidential candidate to do the work of the church looking for presidential candidate to do the work of the president. That doesn't mean I would vote for anybody. Someone just asked me on Twitter between Hitler and Nero who would I vote for.

Obviously, neither so I understand why some Christians say they can't vote in the election district Franklin Graham speaking James Dobson explaining why every Christian needs to get educated and we should vote, but if window voting for Hillary Clinton. Would that be what he was exhorting us to do is not endorsing a candidate, but I wholeheartedly, without reservation say do not vote for Hillary Clinton. I'm telling you friends if you follow Jesus. She will declare war on your beliefs, your conservative beliefs about life in the womb. Conservative beliefs about the meaning of marriage, they will be unacceptable and really couldn't presence it will not be a matter of there's room for everybody.

A be a matter of if you oppose quote a woman's right to choose the new opposed human rights. If you oppose quote gay-rights many redefining marriage, etc. then you oppose human rights.

There will not be a place at the table.

I'm just sharing that plainly.

Thank you sir for calling and 8663 for 87884. Let's go to Bryson and Powder Springs, Georgia. Thanks for calling the line of fire and yet can get all the president of the election. All parts on order and a moment of believing right.

It became either� Last year were and it finally got one factual voting get involved in all electric, but bad work like pretty hard, but I'll call you cooking on the whole you know Hillary and the whole abortion situation and I'm leaning more toward Hillary because of experience and what I don't like the whole abortion aspect when I look at it more like well she's not paying so bored I don't think you know and the fact that you know given the choice of leaders of that individual and I did. I really think anything really wrong right there ugly us that the church should be able to you know that man and talk to people who haven't probably but if there is a loss and that you know that you have with Charlie which is nothing of the better choice but to which you like a fish is not paying to actual since let's let some let's switch the scenario.

K. Bryson. Let's say it Liz, not abortion. It was killing black children okay I loom my children and one candidate said there should be a law against killing black children and understand for that and the other candidate said hey I think anyone that feels it's right to kill a black child should be able to if it's their child. It's their choice whether a child is a month old or-year-old I think that's fine and I'm in a particular right to do it.

Would you say the same thing yet will that's what you're talking about so you're talking about killing a baby in the womb killing baby outside of the womb and Hillary Clinton would be the most radical pro-abortion candidate in the history of our country without question. There will be more babies killed under Hillary Clinton administration that under another demonstration. I've read that Planned Parenthood is putting in $30 million to support her. Her candidacy in the candidacy of understanding with her. She has said plainly that one reason you cannot vote for Donald Trump is because he would elect a pro-life justices to the Supreme Court.

So you have to look at it like that if we went back to the days of slavery. If one person said hey we want to outlaw slavery in America and the other person said, hey, it's the slaveowners choice. It's everybody's choice.

I mean where would we stand not only so when when we also talk about the issue of marriage and family from a Christian perspective. Hillary Clinton would be the most aggressive pro-homosexual candidate we had in America which would basically mean that we don't have the moral and religious right to differ with it. She's on record as saying that religious beliefs would have to be today have to change when it comes to abortion and homosexuality.

So those things are obviously you have to prayerfully consider this, and I understand there's all kinds of baggage and concerns with the Donald Trump presidency. But the one thing that I will continue to shout at us. We cannot vote for Hillary Clinton, and that when you look at Scripture. One of the things that's at the top of the list when God judges a nation is the killing of shedding of innocent blood that the killing of babies and children so it it it's such a massive issue and then I look at Sec. Clinton's experience.

She's been one of the most corrupt politicians we've ever had their people outreach through the FBI that that she was not indicted for for the laws that she broke as Secretary of State in the and then we have the lives that were lost in Benghazi so obviously again it's it's up to your own conscience, but I just encourage you to look at it like that you would be voting for someone who is aiding and abetting the slaughter of innocent babies in the womb and does not his choice. It is means that that we are aiding and abetting that so in that case you either vote for another candidate outside of Hillary or you don't vote or you you vote for Donald Trump with with reservation that I can vote for Hillary Eric that's that's my counsel and advice are, and may the Lord give you wisdom as you vote for the first time. Thank you, thank you for calling and weighing an alright will get right back your calls. On the other side of the break I just was sent to a very sweet note from someone who listens resistive regulation, Israel said, please tell Dr. Brown that my wife and I have appreciated his sound commentary on this very odd and disturbing election year.

Looking back, I received a call from a major Christian leader today asking me to ask all of you that are listening to me today, especially those in Charlotte North Carolina to pray for Donald Trump rally tonight that God would do something in and through this rally. This is not an endorsement for Donald Trump leader called me was not endorsing Donald Trump but he felt that there something that's up and that we should be praying that God would move again. It is not an endorsement for Mr. Trump is on a call to vote for Mr. Trump is a call to pray for the rally tonight. The government do something so I think that so we can all agree father have your way. Have your way. Awaken your people, let us be awakened to God and touch Donald Trump that if we had access to the Hillary campaign we be praying for God to touch. Of course we still pray for that as well.

Right 8663 freight 7884 Scott Indianapolis Ron, welcome to the line of fire. Hello Dr. Brown thank you for taking my call and we spoke awake going want to thank you for that. Especially appreciate that it really responding grace and humility in looking, I know my heart was asked by probably you slip through by accident is we don't allow callers to call back so quickly. But since you're on, let's. And you since you're so gracious little good activity knuckleheads are okay why I have a question I want to explain all that where I'm coming from and why I called two days in a row in the art.

We can room media and were coming from.

As I see in Christianity in general. This is real or the predominant belief system that produces a mindset of the low expectation RRS path expectation is mind overcoming fan and I've actually wrote a book about that one of the items in the book of the progressive sanctification mission. We talked about last week and I'm actually requesting that you review the book. I know you get a lot of request like that and can do many so I would like Senate. They look. She paid to think of something you review yet his contact info on the best interim website yesterday. The at the specific question for today.

Okay the specific question as regarding is there a gradual crucifixion of salmon and of labor, so similar that what I brought out last right.yet so so the ants, the answer is there is come to faith and identification with Jesus, represented by water baptism which says that we died to sin. So in that sense there is a once and for all death to sin once and for all new birth once and for all crucifixion. However, what were told to do in the nine is to take up our cross daily. That's number one are to take up our cross daily and number two enrollment six to consider ourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Colossians 3 says, since you have been raised with the Messiah, set your hearts on things above that on things in the earth.

Then it says put to death.

Therefore, the deeds of the flesh so spiritually with salvation and symbolized by baptism we have died once and for all to sin and we now live to God. We are no longer children of the devil. We are children of God. An instant of time, we are no longer held value. Your heaven bound in an instant of time. However, we must renew our minds to that reality, we must consider ourselves dead to sin and I can be on a daily basis must take up the cross and say no to the flesh on a daily basis and we must recognize that our nature now is to live for God and we are there to clothe ourselves with that nature that we are no longer sinners, we are saints, and therefore more than conquerors and overcome us in Jesus. But we must live that out.

So that's the ongoing reality is, once for all his ongoing to now live it out. In any case, I'm going up and take some other calls, but feel free to send the book and up this much I tell you up of what with the contents in a few pages. We have stacks and stacks and stacks of these to review. As you can imagine, not only get a look at a few but will certainly take a look all right. Thank you sir.

God bless you. Appreciate the call 866-34-TRUTH 87884. Let's go to Reese in New Brunswick, Canada. Thanks for calling the line of fire and the law. Thanks. Yeah work?

Make a comment about the Belgium so thing I'm not sure accurate hacked and I hope to generate the more light and keep that animal so torchbearer time supporter of your ministry but I have to say when I found out I was a little appointment by look a little knowledge of their judgment from anything about NAR and Bill Johnson's ministry that are rated many many red flag for me and many others. So ask them. I know that you you really just well, and you're talking much about things like hyper Great Bend LGBT issues and that bookkeeper is your life and so many other topics Blech.

Why, I don't want to be rude.

When asked why you take much more soft approach when it comes to the fringe and the charismatic or or teachers are on the fringe.

Think of anything. I know you regret the many things you draw bill jumping another two and you are much slower to criticize them and value what recruitment brothers in Christ. When I would be very yet my reset did you listen to the Bill Johnson interview. Okay, great, great, yet so it's a great question and I deeply appreciate the way that you ask it number one, I've addressed issues in the charismatic movement for decades after the decades and in 1991. Michael came out. Whatever happened to the power of God is the charismatic church slain spear down for the count. So I freely address things but one thing is if the sum is a friend or colleague. I'll address them directly if I don't have access to someone they refuse interaction with me, then I'll address it differently so certain things and have concern, call the personable talk about a privately but I will say this that I've ever known Sid Roth for over 30 years. My son-in-law works with them closely as his producer. I don't watches TV show or know what's on all the time that I've known Sid for over 30 years and walk with him in many settings we shared offices years ago and he loves the Lord with all his heart. He lives a godly holy life. He is the most committed soul winner that I know in America witnesses golden without shame itself is a better course of some things are different with probably watch those shows but a major pond that it's the line of fire with your host activist, author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution get into the line of fire now by calling 66343 here again is Dr. Michael Brown thank you much for joining us on one fight rate 7884. You got questions, we've got answers.

Also, Reese thanks for holding through the break. I'd encourage you first to to go to the Bethel website which is I Bethel.org and look at what we believe it's in the about section I Bethel.org. They are Orthodox believers who hold to the fundamentals of the faith and would affirm the historic statements of faith that that most evangelicals withhold to within the charismatic movement.

Bill Johnson's a highly respected leader. He's he's hardly considered friends if you look at the endorsements to his new book, they are in of some of the top leaders crystal charismatic leaders in the world and I'm not part of quote the new apostolic Reformation. The NAR but I know folks who are in their the whole thing is completely misrepresented. I'm I mean it's at and see that's what I'm real sensitive to Reese III was a leader in the Brownsville revival I was there for four years I was I was in between public services and classes and rallies, probably to know well over 2000 meetings okay so if there's eyewitness I was eyewitness and in your time of the gospel being preached in Jesus being exalted. You're talking that you could you could cross-examine our faculty at our school and find everyone to be a completely committed solid godly believer and yet people would report on this as if it was the craziest heresy and night I watched her history of every every past revival that's happened is had critics and attackers so I'm real sensitive to that. I'm real sensitive to people being misrepresented or here. You know I I saw the Eric Johnson statement about human nature thought.

What in the world but is a slow clip/bill about it and I suggest my son and here's what Eric was trying to say. But no, we believe human beings are born with a sinful nature, they must repent of sin. Okay.

And then that know what, comment have Jan Johnson make about the Holy Spirit like a sneaky blue genie and from a lad like what kind of talk is that the civil sheet is news that he knows he finds it inappropriate to try to make a point that certain culture is in a wrongly stated so it's not like he's there saying you this is what we believe this is really important to us. We believe the Holy Spirit like a sneaky blue genie, etc. so I'm not gonna let others overhear when you have that that the clips from Todd Friel and Phil Johnson brothers call them brothers in the Lord to trust my get criticized for that I get criticized for embracing them as brothers that that out. Phil Johnson said in a Jesus culture is more dangerous than abortion that so right, so, so my point is when I see the extreme reactions my see the false accusations. I I am not going to react to that because I found unless I renounce the things of the spirit. I will never satisfy certain critics at the same time.

If there is an issue or concern. I either won't work with that person, or if it's something I feel to address all all address and as as you rightly mentioned the Denny hand controversy. The fact I appeared on on the show with him and it was you know so positive towards him as we interacted again. I had I had goals and doing it and I wanted to build relationship and hopefully be of help, etc. but yet was it wise to go on the show if it's a fair question. You know my friend James White immediately after the show posted on Facebook is disagreement told me face-to-face us again, you could be right.

Maybe it was a mistake of there's so much baggage there so many false prophecies associated with this ministry. There's the fundraising there other things. But aside from that, from what I could tell, spending time with them. He really is a genuine believer yes-you know a little less I name everybody by name and call him a heretic, can assess people and unluckily call the heretic on his heretics. Either facility to listen to each other. Fair with each other pay if that answers your questions. Let me know if not by the Expo line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown thank you much for being part of the broadcast at 866 okay funnily enough during the break. My feed which is not the one getting the local radio station.

But when you get listing online that comes from from one source I had Darcy scroll talking about Martin Luther and and St. Augustine are both part of his fellowship okay. If that's the case that many of those who will a taxi Bill Johnson today will attack Mike Bickel today will who will attack me today as charismatics. They warm embrace might lose it. When I taste something.

Martin Luther shortcomings Martin Luther sends Mortensen's Martin Luther's failures are a massive mountain compared to whatever accusations you can bring against these others a massive mountain if you want to compare them in terms of what he wrote and said in an the first of what he wrote and said so that some of his words being used by Adolf Hitler and the Nazis helped fuel a fire Jew hatred even to kill Jews if you like to comparison your comparative comparing a mountain range with a with a mound of dirt, to be honest, so let's be consistent. I raise that in my book raise it in my book, authentic fire, 86634 let's go to Hurley in Boston. Welcome to the line of fire and technical sure to regularly hear okay what it learn the creation happening because of the Bible that are not okay that it repent of of creation and invaded it basic pay that guy did not to repent or that he is the same yesterday today and tomorrow I'll get to that he learned what happened did the heat know that man would. He already had planned another guy in the car know everything or does he learn these are greatly great questions. Theologians asked them and and people just reading the Bible asked let let let me let me give you an answer that I think will help you a lot, but paints a picture for you. Have you ever watched a very powerful emotional movie like a real tearjerker or real dramatic movie you've watched it before but if you watch it again. You're on the edge of your seat when walking.

Okay all right I will that's that's a sign, but let's it is there. There are movies I know the outcome okay some classic thriller. I know the outcome but I won't watch them again because it's too emotional experience to watch so it's even though I know even though I know the outcome. I still grips me or I'll think back wet when our daughters were were little and we were at the beach one day and they were good swimmers but suddenly I looked up and they had their heads gone way out. The weather is supposed to be in my heart jumped as girls girls come on back in okay well at it.

When I think of it. My heart still skips a beat, even though that was decades ago and nothing happened.

So here's my point. Know God does not learn anything. He is the same yesterday today and forever. He declares the end from the beginning. And yet there are versus where it seems that he discovers something like when Abraham was willing to sacrifice Isaac. He says now I know really fear the Lord, or in Jeremiah, he tells Israel. I really sought you would come back and I really thought you would call me Abba father but she didn't. He says to Jeremiah. Perhaps the people will repent. Genesis 6 he regretted that he made man and and that you refer to other verses numbers 23% of 15 that he doesn't change his mind.

So how we understand this, I wrote about it. My Jeremiah commentary and this is what I understand God's eternal God inhabits eternity. Nothing catches them by surprise. Nothing happens that he doesn't already know will happen every last detail of human history.

He knows that he knew before he created human beings. I firmly believe that. And yet he has the ability to experience things with us when money came into the world and the person of his son Jesus wept. Jesus rejoiced right so God could incarnate himself in our midst, and yet still be God. I believe God can do that same thing that even though he knows everything that he can actually experience grief or joy based on our response the same way as I said, you could watch something you already know the outcome and and yet you have an emotional reaction. The difference is that God's court emotions are perfect. Doors are mixed and and there's flesh and the others right with wrong etc. but if if that analogy helps. Yes, he knows everything in advance. He does not learn. He does not think all I didn't see that coming. Note nothing surprises him some Calvinists would say he preordained everything that happen.

I would say he simply for knows everything that would happen but we both agree that nothing surprises him that he doesn't learn, but I would say that he genuinely responds in the moment in terms of yes he can generally feel grief and joy or disappointment or pain or sorrow. Hence he could say I regret doing this. It was a painful choice, but it was a painful choice. He knew in detail would be the case before he ever made it a thank you for the questions 866-34-TRUTH 87884.

Let's go to I will go there, let's go to Woodbury. We won't go there. Let's try Stafford, Virginia. Well, look at that Howard Ida was a dropping like flies like that could sound bad, but from full phoneline side tell you if you try to get through the passage of time, 866-348-7884 member to call you got questions, we've got answers.

Let me read this.

Yeah I want to read this. A Christian friend of mine is a major national leader wrote to world magazine world magazine major evangelical publication they called for Donald Trump to get out of the race and he's asked them well or are they also calling for Hillary Clinton to get out of the race based on all of her scandals and this is this is what he wrote love what you guys do that. This is misguided. Best to talk about the difference between the death of the pro-life movement are not Inc. about that saving babies or killing them talk about the future of the Supreme Court for generation. This is a seachange moment in the history of America.

Make no mistake, Hillary Clinton, the secular progressives have nothing but contempt for Christians. Sometimes you have to vote to stop evil, or at least try to.

Trump is a very flawed man but he is surrounded himself with several godly men is teachable he will not use the power of the federal government to come after us. She will wouldn't apply the standard to anything else in life. If there were two doctors were both adulterers, yet one could remove your cancer and the other could not would you choose neither and just die via to mechanics were both drunk. At one could fix your car. The other would tear up your transmission would you choose neither and just walk everywhere.

This is what we face.

We live to fight another day. This was a huge mistake by worldview to mistake will further depress the Christian vote when given a choice between more evil and less evil. Why wouldn't you choose less. So that's it. That's a strong argument raised by this particular Christian leader of someone else.

Someone else sent sent this note and they said that a Christian leader made this comment that God can use a Sampson more than a Jezebel. So I just posted that seconds ago. During our last breaks of minutes ago on twitter with regard to Trump Clinton Christian leader, who was a said God could do more with a Sampson cam with a Jezebel.

So I said I gave four choices.

I agree I disagree. It's not relevant. I don't understand and I and I do get the point of it that Sampson had a calling from God on his life and an anointing and yet he was such a flawed man.

He ended up busy dying for and suffering a lot for and yet God used him where his Jezebel was outright wicked and brought judgment on generations of Israelites with her wickedness and with the godless health entrenched in northern Israel. So anyways the vulture started in our first 59. The responses know if you know how that is out later or you can weigh in 66342. Let's concentrate on your questions in the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown yet. There's an absolutely outrageous ruling the ninth circuit Court of Appeals known for its common that's commonly radical rulings has uphold AB California AB 7756 Toledo 775, a law that forces pro-life resource centers to promote abortion you go to so pro-life resource Center and they are required to say no. If you want abortion, here's where you go forward with. Let's consider abortion as an option.

What outrage is only one thing for these centers to do, refuse, refuse, according to Matt Bowman's new accounts with lines defending freedom court. It's bad enough of the government tells you what you can't say, but a lot of tells you which you must say under threat of severe punishment is even more unjust and dangerous.

In this case political allies of abortionists are seeking to punish pro-life pregnancy centers, which offer real hope and help to limit force the centrist to promote abortion and recite the government's preferred views is a clear violation of the constitutionally protected. First, rent freedoms.

That's why other courts around the country have halted these kinds of measures and why will be discussing the possibility of appeal with our clients. Either way, the clients must refuse to comply in conscience before God that yet. That is obvious and and a no-brainer. In that respect. May God give them courage. By the way, by the way that's that's why that's why the the vote for pro-life justices. The vote of his presidency. Pro-life justices is so important. Splurge if you can't vote for Donald Trump. By all means don't vote for Hillary Clinton sit it out. Vote for somebody else. Don't vote for her because otherwise I'm telling you what happened ninth circuit that Bill assembly Bill 775 whatever the number was. You can see the soul of America multicolor justices that she will appoint you're going to have nothing but this in the coming days all out war on our freedom of religion and faith when it comes to these important moral and cultural issues you're being forewarned. Was I right about Pres. Obama go back and listen to shows a rate years ago people that want to believe in and was I was deftly a rocket scientist or prophet is just what what Sen. Obama and others had said. If this was who he was, where he stood. We had it in writing. The newest policies renew his views out of his own mouth is no questioning that is clear as day.

I hoped I was wrong and I want to be wrong. I wasn't in again. It that the rocket scientist to predict that so I'm sounding the alarm right 866-34-TRUTH 87884. Let's go to Eric and Vista, California thank you for calling the line of fire. Dr. Ron Howard very well, thank you payoff them. I had a quick question.

It like every time I'm listening to the radio.

It I hear I always hear the people combined with lightning of the and their Christian and I get it. It probably sounds so clich�. Now I hear where they pay. Oh, you know, there's no one right no one. No, not wine in there talking now like that. Nobody is perfect and and things like that and I always wanted to hear your point of view on that. I know you spoke about it before on question. Note that question-and-answer on Friday. I just could exit. Spend your point of view on how Christian it feels like it almost like like a card they pull out thing you know, no one is perfect where it that I know that in enrollment and that that the and all. Upon shortening all and all is falling short of the great God and note enough that whole Scripture, but I just wanted to hear your point of view on not on the meaning of the righteousness of God in and embed it in people's daily that there no games that they sing like no one could ever be perfect now in this world and I understand that with that with this need you creation up with Bennett. Now we can live on. You know, righteously yeah Eric, it is. It's outrageous. It's a complete copout. It's it's ridiculous.

It's unscriptural it it is it is simply justifying sin, exalting the power of the flesh, denying the power of God and and basically something our nose at at what Scripture says in in in verse after verse after verse after verse just before radio today in New Jersey. But before leaving for where I was going to do the broadcast I was literally on my knees and I wrote an article that I will thickets up quite yet. We just see I wrote an article on on we must change the world rather than be changed by the world and in in short what what I discussed was that the call of Scripture to live holy lives to live pure lives to live godly lives of the call of Scripture to to watch our tong to watch her conduct by Jacob James that the first chapter says that the pure religion and undefiled before God the father is this, to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction to keep oneself unspotted by the world.

We are called to purity second printing 71.

In light of the promises God has given us says since we have these promises dear friends, let us cleanse ourselves from everything that the files, body and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of the hundreds 1214 without holiness no one will see the Lord will call to to pursue it. Paul tells Timothy as young man flee youthful lusts and pursue righteousness, purity and faith that together with others of of a pure heart. Verse after verse after verse like I quote extensively in this new article from Ephesians the fifth chapter and same sexual morality shouldn't be mentioned among us.

We should probably purity. We used to be darkness, but now her light walk as children of light and elder cannot even serve as an elder and less they live a consistent godly life and and deal with their families, their children, and it in a godly way if you go to Esther to Brown.org just click on digital library. There's a video should believers be held to a higher moral standard that I address this. You'll also find one from a few days ago, right talk about Christians excusing quote locker room talk forget Donald Trump does not issue this is 11 years ago has he repented, is grown at this. That's a separate issue of the issues, us believers to make light of this, that's terrific. So no were not claiming perfection, but we are seeking to become more like Jesus every day, and Eric if if you watch me if you could watch my life and family and ministry over one year. You should come away saying yet so I thought he was in a maybe you think I prayed more or read the word more witness, more respect.

You can find a hypocrite. You find someone who's devoted to the Lord seeking to please and as we should see it is in God's grace in us enough for that right Retta Todd visit the website. Check out our special resource offer by bottom line today.

Yes, we used to be darkness, but without the more that is live and walk as children of light coming your way live from New Jersey. You've got questions, we've got answers stage for the line of fire with your host activist and author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution Michael Brown is the director of the coalition of conscience and president of fire school of ministry get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH. That's 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown if you got questions, we've got answers. This is Michael Braman, Sarah Pfaff, New Jersey. There's a conference I'll be speaking at tonight and through the weekend and then I will next week we start our missions week at at fire church. If you're anywhere in the greater Charlotte area. By all means visit us.

It's an amazing time missionaries coming from around the world. We have powerful meetings, great preaching, teaching, just very very special times and credible sharing of what these grads for ministry school and other friends are doing out on the field. I mean you will be edified and blessed and to be able get behind with her doing as well. Anyway, what time about that as we get closer, just in case you're in the area also to all my friends in particular in North Carolina and in particular in particular in Charlotte.

Donald Trump is speaking at a rally tonight. Again, I'm in New Jersey. I won't be there by the Christian leader called me and said hey ask your radio listeners to pray is not an endorsement for Donald Trump. Not for me, not from this Christian leader's name and not even mentioning but he said ask your listeners to pray that God would do something through this rally. Hey, wherever Jesus can be glorified wherever people can turn to the Lord whatever can stir people to look to him to do what's right and to pray rightly for the selections we should do it. So I will encourage you to pray set praying for a candidate to get elected not to say that the nest for that witness that rather I'm asking you to pray that God would do something significant in this rally tonight. Charlotte again. I won't be there via New Jersey but we shall see 866-34-TRUTH 87884 right so just the first hundred votes. So this is the tiniest tiniest tiniest sampling sampling with regard to Trump and Clinton the Christian leader said God can do more with the Samson and cam with the Jezebel and I asked you agree gay for choices. I agree I disagree. It's not relevant understand as of the first hundred two votes on Twitter, 33% said they agree 13% said they disagree 46% said it's not relevant 8% said I understand that my own position would be either. I agree. Or it's not relevant as I certainly agree with the concept. Yes, that God can do more. The Samson account of the Jezebel you have one with extreme weakness and another with extreme wickedness and sin. Sometimes there's a big difference between them. Other times they really overlap, but asked whether it's relevant to the presidential race.

That's a fair debate think people can argue it from both sides, so any question you have anything whatsoever you want to talk about asked me about any question at all, please give me a call 866-34-TRUTH 784 if you want clarification on something if you want to challenge me on something if you need help sorting something through if you look at Scripture.

Whatever it is we are here to help you and that just another bit of election news and no surprise here, but a Breitbart.com reports Thomas D. Williams writing that a new survey suggests that nearly 3/4 of Muslim Americans will vote for Democrat Democratic nominee, Hillary Clinton in the upcoming presidential elections on November the Council on American Islamic relations releases � the survey Thursday reported that 72% of Muslim voters survey so they will cast their vote for Clinton on November 8 with 4% intending to vote for Trump and 12% on decided that neither I've got grave issues and concerns with care and what they do and who they are set aside as a tell you this tell you that they see Trump's biggest racist xenophobe and therefore fairly clean for good reason. Or does the say that they think she'll be softer and radical Islam.

The line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown looking to the line of fire, eight 664-8784 you've got questions, we've got answers. Michael Brown delighted to be with you all. Let us go right to the phones and will start with Ken in Richmond, Virginia. Thanks for calling for Dr. Bernard Dumas, thanks. I wanted to crawl merriment course student.

Why are Bernard Radhakrishnan folks are bending over backwards regular for Donald Trump managers like the group. Your Christian and I registered that anybody could change your lower art or great anger displayed or of Starbucks or PennDOT or or Hillary is still available or doctoral yellow yellow� Can I not try to convince you to start their and I do find it a very embarrassing way. Some Christians have made excuses for Donald Trump or downplayed things in his past or civil. Anybody can send a blow that these are the same Christians that were same Bill Clinton has disgraced the White House and should resign or that Hillary Clinton should be running now because she's complicit in her husband's sins by discrediting the women, etc. so I find some of the hypocritical I find so that embarrassing and it's it's a problem with when you endorse a candidate you become associated with them. You know it's what makes me give pause about endorsing another candidate in the future, but to to explain a couple things.

The reason that I would say people are saying okay. We know he's terribly flawed. He's been anything but a godly man all of his life. The reason their same, but still devote from is because the evil of Hillary Clinton. So that's the first thing and I will shout from the rooftops.

Don't vote for she is the most radical pro-abortion candidate in our history.

She says if a woman decides to abort her baby in the last day of the ninth month when that baby could easily throttle it's ready to be born. That's her choice.

She says that deeply held religious beliefs about abortion must change as she pushes a radical pro-homosexual agenda to the point of upsetting national leaders all over Africa. She made it plain to them, you have to change your views on homosexuality, change your views on how your kids are educated, change your views on the meaning of marriage or lose American support.

That's vile, it's despicable. I find her and and she may claim in a debate that one reason you cannot vote for Trump is because he will appoint to the Supreme Court. Pro-life justices will overturn Roe V Wade and profamily justices Christian to use those terms. Pro-life, profamily, a profamily justices who will overturn the vertical decision from last June that ridiculously outlawed or redefined marriage.

So because of the the evil that Hillary Clinton stands for and the evil practices that she would now push hard on America and in that trust meets, it will come straight down to Christians in their beliefs of their say okay anyone but her and and the lesser of two evils is still better now that being said the reason I talk about anyone could change is because Donald Trump's day and night, hearing the gospel from men of God, some of whom I know personally who are in the loudest possible terms, urging them to humble himself calling him to repent and he keeps listening to them. Pieces spend more time with me right and and it seems that there is an openness to change, whereas Hillary is made clear. This is where she stands and her counselors around her or urging her to stay in this direction. So of course we pray for her repentance as well and we pray for her salvation as well get out yet or not. But I don't know why will probably around it by the guy budgetary falls on a jury follows a businessman. He's not a Christian.

There minister that the site or night fell like it will Hillary fair enough, but that the deadline can okay first first thing this conversation my wife and I have had endlessly, and you take the position of my wife okay so the person closest to me in this world agrees with you that there is no evidence of change in his life and that he can't forget the past and those I knew who the guy was right that the whole world.

I mean, that's who he was openly brazenly.

He was in a guest on Howard Stern showed he talked about his womanizing and all this so no surprise that so he was to see that person today. I don't know but it doesn't surprise Messer.

He was then.

So yes, what you're saying is I I agree with you hundred percent well I do can I tell if he is a womanizer. Today, the way he was then from what he says it's debatable.

It's debatable that no look again your skepticism would echo that of my wife so I'm not I'm not like us on the try to get you to vote for Trump and look I've written enough stuff against imminent and have videos and against them that are still there, haven't told him okay. I'm just saying that it right to the last minute and you feel like this to write off till election day again if you like this.

If one person is shut themselves out from godly counsel and the counselor getting from ministers and pastors is a counsel of death and destruction is it is pro-abortion. It is pro-homosexual marriage etc. etc. it is weak on radical Islam.

That's the counselor getting the other one is getting godly counsel and they're not shutting it out so I'm more hope that they might listen, could have to say why do they keep opening themselves up to it.

Now I what you say is 100% fair can you hundred percent when he gives a speech tonight in Charlotte. I want I will be there to hear it that all I'll do my best to get the transcript afterwards order to listen and I'll get feedback from folks there is he giving evidence of change. I am with you on that.

100%. And although it's just a speech anybody could say anything, but you'd want to see something positive you will have some indication that the person is not demeaning others and mistreating others in speaking vile crew terms of others totally sought totally fair. Can I get no argument with you, but I I will shout from the rooftops.

Do not vote for Hillary Clinton. Right. But thanks thank you for asking.

I love the fact that you asked these questions and my goal is not to persuade anyone to vote for Donald Trump pray for both of them for sure and extend mercy for their repentance, for sure. All right thank you I appreciate it 866-34-TRUTH that we go to Jean and Monro, North Carolina.

Welcome to the line of fire. Greater your marriage. Ariel the pool so all John chapter 50 yeah community will bring another was the Col. water goblet, finding our order. Yet it it seems that it was that the question is, were what is the original text say so I'm reaching the new King James after this there is a feast of the Jews and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

Now there is in Jerusalem by the sheep gate a pool which is called in Hebrew Bethesda, having five porches in these lay a great multitude of sick people blind Lane paralyzed waiting for the moving of the water for an angel went down at a certain time into the pool instead of the water then whoever stepped in first.

After the stirring of the water was made well of whatever disease he had and then if you read it say in the ESV verse three in these lay a multitude of invalids blind Lane paralyzed that does mention anything about the stirring of the water there, but we know verse seven when after Jesus asked would be healed necessary have no want to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up and while I'm going another steps down before me so that the rest of verse three in verse four is found in some manuscripts.

The majority of the manuscripts that that's what's followed by the King James in the new King James and it clearly explains the following context. However however it's not found the mode because the earliest manuscripts. The most reliable my scripts. That's what's used by city ESV of the NIV, but then that doesn't explain with the stirring of the water is I'm not a textural expert choice to give a definitive opinion as to which text I follow. I do believe that those verses seem to give the background, from what I can tell it was a positive thing that a negative thing why those other manuscripts don't have it.

There is debate about it that I can't give you a clear answer. Thank the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown. Your voice is more cultural and spiritual revolution.

Here again is Dr. Michael Brown yes is just to clarify, Jean what I was saying was, it's debatable whether those were original in the text as John wrote it or not, I can't give you a definitive view because that's that's not my specialty area and have not devoted a lot of time to study, but it does seem that it provides the necessary background and gives logic to what follows as to why some techs have it and some don't. There is debate about that. That's what I can't be definitive on however I do see the something that was positive on something that was negative as far as I could tell 866-34-TRUTH 87884 CLB go to Stephen Winston-Salem.

Thanks for calling the line of fire, a dog love your program. Thank you sir got a quick new ministry got a quick question on things like emotion, got in the way here at up emotion when it comes to the election emotion. Well, you have got even you got that brash know I can walk door down get a grandmotherly type you're right don't you look very like but my knucklehead at triple bypass surgery. We are strong people of faith of family law, Christian one generation back by uncle Joey Yap and Abby surgeon the best guy cardio guy could find one.

The believer you the bad language, but you want the best man at it.

It only from Outlook builder.but it seemed like you know we got we got the candidate absolutely horrid horrific thinking been a professional government person that lady know that.

In fact, in fact, in really dropped the ball over the plate. We got a guy who yet that people eat up that me at the believer, but you look it just seems to me should we look at who could do was going to be tough to fire somebody nincompoop government who are absolutely like our country or countries might like to talk with you with Steve I] weren't that kind of money and no one is any people keep it morally plotting right get my granted that right so II when I see people that I I appreciate the perspective Steve so so here's my response of the comeback that some would have is this that the harm that Donald Trump could do would be ever an entirely different kind that because of his volatility he get us in trouble with other countries and and create a war with his words or that his example is the human being is so flawed and so degraded that it would degrade the culture as as a whole and on and on it goes, and that if pride is his greatest sin.

God opposes the proud wherewith things go, but Steve, I would say that all those who are godly people who are planning to vote for Trump or doing it for the reasons you're saying that which they know his flaws, they they they see self-evidently that he has lived a decadent lifestyle, and in many ways they are all voting with their eyes wide open, but they're saying get be it dealing with debt be at the government establishment that has to be broken.

BNR dealing with radical Islam be at who gets appointed to the Supreme Court. Those are bigger issues and they'd rather have that guy in that sense operating than the other who they know is a bad surgeon so yeah that's that's the perspective Steve hey appreciate the call 8663 for 87884. Let's go to Dave and Boston. Welcome to the line of fire by Dr. Brown and Michael sure everything you want talk about real briefly Donald Trump John MacArthur in the Trinity I have anything to do with one another. But first Sgt. wanted to comment on Donald Trump.

He said some stupid things but Muslim not living in the country they needed 11 years ago with Billy Bush about women degrading been around people I talk like that. Some people they grew up in a household like that when it was okay to talk like that and you know I think he's repented, I'm going to forgive him on the if you recall during the 90s with Monica Lewinsky.

The whole tone about sex changed in the media. Everything was okay with RA papillary notes okay with Congress and let me just say this stop in the area say this and inheres so the motor turns around for second okay and I just I just wrote an article just just went live.

Moments ago all posted in in a few different places a people of God that is change the world rather than be changed by the world and I mentioned that that during the Clinton presidency, and then when he was questioned about Monica Lewinsky and said I did not have sex with that women with that woman.

There's a whole generation that grew up basically saying that a particular sex act is not sex because the president did it and said it wasn't sex this whole generation. I think you can keep your virginity and do certain things because the president did know was there is a degrading of the culture as a whole. So there is that concern that many of raise that if you have a Trump presidency and he continues to talk and act certain ways or or being known for the past and he hasn't distanced himself from it, and overseeing the culture that just the headlines in and websites and with the news this time an hour by hour. It's the most polluting vulgar stuff yuck who's looking to talk about this so we have to renew our minds and determine not to be part of that. But if Donald Trump is changing than by all means let's celebrate the change and encourage them to move for the hottest attire with John MacArthur okay well I also want to say about John MacArthur.

It I'm also Jewish believer and John MacArthur with with a large part of teaching me the word listening to ham radio Christian will until it joined the church just a few years ago I saw something recently on your show about something John MacArthur said about Jesus culture and I just wanted to stay. John MacArthur owed Jesus culture an apology. I just wanted to thank you for bringing that up and I don't know if he has apologized to them yet but know you seal some heat.

He certainly feels that what what he said is correct of that that he believes the vast majority of charismatics regarding not even saved that he looks at many of these groups is no false prophets, false apostles and an even the people that are poisonous cults which is terribly unfortunate. I believe if John MacArthur and Bill Johnson got to know each other and could spend a few hours together fellowship around the word that they would both be enriched and they would both grow in the Lord and they would both be helped in a positive way by sought would love to see that happen. If it doesn't happen in this world can happen in the world to come for for sure and I think you reset thinking about the video. Dr. Brown response to John MacArthur Todd feeling charismatics worship you can see that if you go to my digital library modifier.org. Click on digital library. Just type in John MacArthur, Todd. It's the line of fire with your host activist, author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution get into the line of fire now by calling 66343 here again is Dr. Michael Brown. Thanks so much for joining us on the line of fire, 8663 for 878841 go straight to the phones. It's Friday.

That means you've got questions. We got answers any question of any kind that you want to ask his loss. It's appropriate for Christian radio. Please have attic. Let's see we will start will start in Raleigh, North Carolina with Cameron welcome to the line of fire.

Hi. Hey. So my question is, heard that and in Scripture that there is evidence again central banking house wondering if that is true, and where to find you know I'm probably not the best person to ask that question two I do not major on on contemporary financial issues.

I can give you biblical principles about finances and debt and stewardship in giving, but I I don't know what the argument would be again central banking.

To be honest, Cameron, and I don't know what scriptures would be used. Two. To make a point. And I would be completely flailing with trying to come up with something that semi-coherent, so I will simply say I don't have a clue.

The table around. I asked my assistant Dylan when he gets a minute to to look into it. See if he comes up with with anything, I'm sure. Just a quick search on YouTube and if I get a chance to to review it sir during a break in this next half hour out I will I will shout out. I'll let you know what I think right side. I apologize for my ignorance there but I want to be one of the totally candid with you if you said hey I've heard all these arguments.

This this is what you think I could respond, but since you're asking what are the basis for the basic arguments I can supply this for about will check I will check if I get the thing. I'll let you know. Thank you sir for calling 86634.

Let's go over stay in Raleigh. Mandy, welcome to the line of fire, previous collars, I personally like I don't know, back rallying around someone will tomorrow and I can't make it better than Hillary. Not a whole lot and I didn't know how you know let what your opinion or how familiar you are with the other candidate by Kevin McMullen looked at some of the other platforms. Some I agree with more than others. I have no problem with the believer saying hey I'm responsible to vote and I have devoted my conscience.

That's all I'm asked to do and I like the platforms on the small of McMullen.

I like the platform of Gary Johnson or just on not.

I'm not saying I doing to saying is some might say that and I feel responsible to vote accordingly. I can't voting conscience II think that is a totally totally valid for someone to hold to that the question would be, will my vote actually do anything. In other words by sitting it out or by voting for the candidate that is no possible chance of getting in is my vote actually doing anything. If you say hey my vote is sending a message.

My vote is a vote of conscience. My vote is a protest vote, you have to go with her. I know there are some that say you can't do that but that wife who gave us the responsibility of either electing a Democrat or Republican who gave us the responsibility of doing whatever we can to keep someone out of office. So yeah I'm shouting from the rooftops. Don't vote for Hillary Clinton under any circumstances that I'm not telling you all go ahead and back Donald Trump the question. The big question I have about trump Mandy is has he changed and many would say no, certainly not, but that did the question has he changed and if he still of all of those ways. Have there been other leaders. Martin Luther King has a wizard serial adulterer, God used him got you some like that today for cleansing and it's the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown ageist of weekly question about central bank I'm I don't really know central bank operates, what exactly is meant by the central bank, etc. there's an article I was forwarded by Matt, my faithful producer from from England abolish the bank.WordPress.com abolish the bank of England and it raises various scriptures about the importance of just weights and measures and things like that and because of that comes against the Bank of England, but this glass cannot honor that there's any real argument that your you can make scripturally about this so every argument is not heard of it before, nor my concern by at the moment. All right, let's go over to Charlotte Kevin hey Kevin, before I bring Jan just reminder Donald Trump is speaking in Charlotte tonight.

A caller said all right if you surround it. I can from Richmond Virginia earlier said if you stratify God the counselors when he speaks tonight. Let's see if it makes a difference. Very fair agree with that and one Christian leader said really pray for the meeting tonight that God will use a gobble work so I pray for trust presidency were praying for God to work.

Let's pray and let's see what God does right Kevin over to you hi how you doing doing well thank you for your time. You ever know my wife and I we can't have children obviously let the miracle from God but my question it is what your thought that maybe have some insight biblically about sperm donor. Yeah. First, I'm sorry to hear the situation you you I find yourselves in and obviously the Lord will be with you through it and if there's not a miraculous healing.

Then that obviously there are ways that he'll give you to have children and raise children. I would encourage you to go to the website anonymous us.org anonymous us.org it is put together by children of sperm donors in particular anonymous sperm donors of the trauma they have live with the struggles they have had over the years, the identity issues they've had their opponents there, one of which I read on the air.

It was so poignant that almost broke down reading it.

The pain of this child now grown wondering who the father is this the father even think of him and you know you've got certain instances where single man have just donated sperm prolifically and there for now fathered in this way. Dozens and dozens of scores and scores and scores of kids just read one case where the doctor who was providing the sperm from the sperm bank. It was actually his own people found out afterwards.

There there are lots of moral and ethical problems associated with it. Now I know that the positive is well it's it's still you know can be joined with with the mothers a and therefore in a certain real sense that the baby is is your own baby of that there II can't from moment pretend to tell you what to do is as someone that wants to have children but with with adoption is is a real option aware that child is your very own child and since so many ways where a mother and is agreeing at first to give the child up for adoption.

The another another option but under any circumstances, I would not do something with an anonymous sperm donor that I would strongly counsel against okay if if it's not anonymous, and if there ways of finding out who the father biological father. These of the child would be able to know that you know that's that's an important identity thing growing up, but go to anonymous us.org with your wife. Check that out and then from there you can you can discuss the larger splendor of a question in general. Okay, great. Thanks for your time.

All right thank you sir 866-34-TRUTH 87884 will go back to Richmond, Virginia Cory, welcome to the line of fire at noon. Dr. Brown I don't do very well. Thanks. Question for you why.

Why should I vote in this election. I have a lot of question asked by I'm asking that specific question.

Well, I don't blame you if you can't. If you say you can't vote all because you fed up with those candidates. The leading candidates or you don't want to be the one that when you stand before God that your name was on had valid reason why I can't argue with you, I wouldn't argue with you. The argument that the argument would be this for those that are saying you have a responsibility to vote, they would say that with Hillary Clinton presidency, there would be an all-out war on fundamental religious beliefs, there would be the weakening of America internationally and there would be an all-out war on the unborn and our values for marriage and family and because of that we must vote against her. And if Donald Trump is the one against her as as we could candidate in his Florida candidate is he is, we should vote for him. If someone says I can't do that in conscience, I respect that sir. And another question � you're gonna talk about either one Donald Trump, a Hillary Clinton talk about them both on an equal level.

Note it is evident bad or good that that that that's the way where you can say we I'm gonna I'm promoting this one by the other one on a lot of programs I hear people talk about one or the other � which is unfair because you know you have a mic microphone and you are you gotten millions of people assess and let me ask you this, Cory. Let's say it was back when Pres. Lincoln was was running for office. Okay and he was going to be an antislavery candidate. His opponent was a proslavery candidate and we had radio back then when I be morally obligated to to not speak against the proslavery candidate answered to equally you know speak about okay make the candidates in equal in my eyes.

Hillary Clinton would be a far more evil and destructive candidate. The Donald Trump do some different with me but that's my conviction I'm not endorsing Trump encouraging folks to vote for Vanessa many times my wife Nancy can vote for either and she feels that the Trump would be worse than Hillary so can we had lively discussions about that meet, we have a difference over it and she said yeah tell your listeners that's how I feel. So I'm telling but from now I view from my viewpoint I see with Hillary we dealers is far worse and therefore under the sound the alarm about that ship should I do that, morally, I'm not a politician, I'm a minister should not do that morally yeah I mean will get a long discussion. I know you know that that the college fair question Kari.

I'm just answering honestly I I understand you you you wants to to be impartial and not be in the candidates back pocket and that kind of thing. The candy can you see that if if I really feel there are major moral issues that I can urge people. 1 Particular Way. I'm not conservative talk show host, trust me, I'm fed up with Fox news just like a fed up with CNN trust Helena and I don't want you to feel like when you listen to this Joe that you listening to Fox news is that is that is not who I am but I just haven't yet to have you anything other radio programs like you would if you can. It issues issues on both part okay either bad or good. That way you have a healthy choice of of information that given out. I appreciate that and let me just say this Cory. I have written more articles about warning about Donald Trump, especially during the primaries and I have warning about Hillary Clinton that now I'm semi alarm more loudly, but here he Clinton that are under my best to be honest, if I see something right and he decide to say it if I see something wrong and he decides to say it.

I just have much more grave concerns or corporate sir.

Thank you for your questions and thank you for the spirit in which you estimate be respectful that I have of the cause, but the thank you sir, if I was face-to-face. We continue the conversation of let's go over to Janet in Durham. Welcome to the line of fire. Dr. Michael Brown like a triple treatment may or shall I love teaching but I looked I got a limit on crapping on the government borrow one and I'm black man whatever and probably level and I was a Democrat about Obama and I hated it, but I did like I'm not calling you. I may eat it, but I would call Lincoln I'm gonna bump� Read the one I would really believe God is changing him to come down with mining job. I'm trying to intelligently hear what God is saying and it went on believer family. We have taken a day habit with God. Hey Janet, this is a golden call this your spirit, your heart, prayer, and your kind words.

Thank you so much you file the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the minor fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown joy this is Michael Brown. You've got questions, we, God answers want to go straight back to the phones. Here we go. Back in Charlotte, North Carolina David, welcome to the line of fire all the quick question, I met a young fellow who was that they are Christian and was wearing a pallet in that you believe you should follow in the Christian, the Torah and the laws and that that is actually a good Christian mandate. I just wanted they'll be here but yeah I've written about this a lot addressed it a lot when you have a Gentile Christian who feels obligated to keep the law of Moses. Almost without exception, they are heading in the wrong direction. What I mean is that they are now finding a primary identification and that which relates to the calling on Israel and even Jewishness. Many of them will even start to try to look more Jewish and things like that and listen. I have zero argument with a Gentile follow Jesus and hate God never change. The seventh day Sabbath and I honor the Lord setting that they sought great fun.

I'm thrilled when Gentile Christians say hate working to follow the biblical calendar and we incorporate the death and resurrection of Jesus into the Passover season and and weird and about to celebrate the feast of Tabernacles and we do it with messianic fulfillment. Great wonderful when they start to say that this is an obligation that we have when they start to say this is sin that every Christian should do. I see this absently contrary to the full revelation of the New Testament and again III know folks that are sincere in their there kind of reacting the pendulum swinging in the reacting against the church, cutting itself off from Jewish roots and things like that but all that. All that being said David. There are concerns when I see it happening.

Over the years I've almost always seen it lead to spiritual confusion in someone's life out there are plenty of Gentile believers who attend messianic congregations in a part of the correlational life in a one together with their Jewish brothers and sisters. It's another thing when they when the they feel it's mandatory for observances or seek to put it on others in my book. 60 questions Christians ask about Jewish police practices 60 questions Christians ask about usually some practices I tackle these very issues in the last section of the book so that may be helpful to you.

All right.

By the way, the key is always keep her eyes focused on Jesus, Yeshua, if he is central we find our life and identity in the Messiah and then we make him known to others than the other things are secondary. Regardless of where we land on them.

Thank you's are all right now we go to Michelle in Fort Mill, South Carolina. Welcome to the line of fire. I'm doing very well thank you. I agree warning Christian market I fell I remember Gary and I at first want to pay for any of their are on startling her developed for app training about 1/4 inch half hour and a child are having divorced and Emily and having kept going.

That where my dad and my mother eat. And there was a college out in our crew and I agree, and what your Spain plan a noun noun and now I look at Mike not currently one man and Natalie we fall short of the glory of God every day and now I and Cartman, and he can't handle counsel and in our care crane. Garlic is country and to develop our back up there. I mean, I think it had back Michelle Obama talking about at we currently shouldn't let that affect allocation yet Bill Clinton within the Lancaster how many years having an affair and he lied to the United States and told you never been in this have to do right in in the White House itself yet yeah and and just just to go back again to the question of why I put stock in whose around Donald Trump of again I right now. If the elections were today. I know I couldn't vote for Hillary Clinton.

I still don't know I could vote for Donald Trump right so I'm just being honest with you. Candidate was missing. I wouldn't understand. I'm not sure I thankfully do not today. By the time election day comes, I'll be sure about what I'm doing.I know firsthand some people preachers leaders godly people who, in the loudest, clearest possible terms are preaching the gospel to Donald Trump are urging him to walk in a godly way, are urging him to show contrition to be truly repentant or are urging him to turn aside from things that are obviously wrong, carnal, dishonest, any evidence that he is. I don't know I'm not close enough to know that I know this. He keeps listening and not shutting these people normally shut them out when you don't want to hear okay so all I'm saying is, he continues to open the door to people who are preaching the gospel to allow them clearly and calling them to be godly. That mean something to me that's a positive right and therefore have more hope in his repentance than it Hillary Clinton's right now. Thank you for the call. All right CJ in Columbus, Ohio were really short on time so if you could dive right in. Yes, go ahead: Eric, you were familiar with Scripture that helped give God my view on cremation and cremation had been in effect on being caught up with Christ being ripped apart the money God it all right so so but let me answer as quickly as I can. I know this is a major issue. I've had friends and loved ones were cremated.

I do not believe it has any effect on that person's spirit, the relationship with God or of there being resurrected.

What about someone that was burned to death in a unit in a terrible accident and literally burned beyond recognition without someone that they drowned in their their body deteriorated in the water or something just over centuries through just ashes left guy can still raise up the body. Okay, that one stop that and there there a couple of verses second Samuel about burning the bones in Israel, but from what I can see the focus on Scripture is on top of burial that is way of honoring the dead, and that burial is preferred crack.

I rather time. My bottom line today live for God.
