Back home back in studio delighted to be with you. So I traveled yesterday from leaving the place were I was staying to getting home was about 30 1/2 hours. I got a great night sleep last night and here we are ready to go. Thanks for praying for me and think of me when I was in Australia. Thanks for missing me. I know we have some great guest hosts, including for the first time spiritual son and colleague Ron Cantor everyone telling what an awesome job he did, but I expect nothing less from Ron so thanks for listening. Thanks for the kind words in my absence. Of course we did shows from Australia.

I just was not able to take your calls and do them in our normal format of in a few minutes I'm been a welcome for the first time to the line of fire. The Josh McDowell yes that Josh McDowell you have a great talk about his new book the beauty of intolerance and just a quick few highlights from Australia, so I got in on a Friday morning was there for 10 days and spoke then Friday night twice that Saturday twice that Sunday the once on a Monday twice on Tuesday, Wednesday, was on a Thursday influence to Melbourne whether temperature is about 2030� lowers about 70 when I listed the beautiful sunny day. Got Melber I think was in the high 30s bad rain.

I wasn't quite prepared for pet, whether of anyway got in there and then spoke four times Friday plus Q&A and then a couple times Saturday wonderful Jewish outreach should have a delightful talk with the head of the Department of Jewish studies at University of Melbourne is followed by work for some time. Those busy mess that you and he attended. We had a delightful discussion afterwards. The Jewish outreach meeting we had and then spoke three times Sunday and then the journey back yesterday so we had a great time.

Some effective Jewish outreach is a really getting to touch a number of Jewish people didn't previously believe coming to the meetings hearing the message, which was absolutely wonderful.

Got to see the Holy Spirit move powerfully in some of the church services and just met some folks wonder sister drove five hours just to hear me to Q&A on Sunday nights. Others tell me how to listen to the broadcast. Every day, but something happened Sunday night that deeply touched me. Finished about an hour and 1/2 of Q&A and when that was done different people coming up to talk to me and a young woman came up 14 years old, lives there in Australia and just sheaves all choked up 14 years old and she said you have been such a role model to me. 14 years old. Can you believe that man we just talked a little bit and I looked out and I said I will never let you down by God's grace would we want to be here for this younger generation and she did just that. I just grabbed her to give her a hug. She had her her head in my shoulders just trying it in at your house special, that is. And when when that happens it's never just an individual thing for me can explain that it's there's always the sense I have that were in this together. There's always the sense that I have that whatever I'm able to do for anyone. It's a joint effort that I'm somehow representing you and others in it together make a difference in this world so that for for final way over there. You know, is the 60 hours round-trip travel and then all of the time zone changes right now it is four in the morning in Australia so I should still be sleeping just for that one girl to hear that one comment was worth the whole trip so much happened so much more talk about the strata. Josh fell come back here again is Dr. Michael Brown. Thanks much for joining us on the line of fire.

This is Michael Brown fresh from Australia, our latest video that you can watch me go. I asked her to Brown.org ASK DR Brown.org is are the Jewish people under a curse this in a misinterpretation of Matthew 27.

Check them and asked Dr. Brown.org a few months back I had Sean McDowell on the broadcast. Here Sean, of course, a great apologist in his own right, but the son of world-renowned apologist Josh McDowell and look at the bio here.

It's it's almost sounds made up, but it's true. Since 1961. Josh is delivered more than 27,000 talks to over 25 million people in hundred 25 countries is the author or co-author of 145 books including more than a carpenter and new evidence that demands a verdict Mykonos verbal magazine as one of the top 40 books of the 20th language. Josh's books are available in over 100 different languages. You've all been blessed and help by Josh because material Josh. What a joy not to bring you to the line of fire for the first time hello Dr. Brown, hey, it's that we run into each other a few different settings but it's it's great to finally get on the broadcast with us. Yeah, I don't know all of you are me, what will hear your hate up before we get into your new book on the beauty of intolerance. How many college campuses have you spoken to her guesstimates of how many young people you've addressed over the years thousand 200. While probably no one else is ever done 300 and about.

Now at about 45 million people extraordinary and what would you say is the biggest difference are some of the biggest differences between now and when you first started probably one major one is that, say, 20 years ago 25 years ago. Basically believed to be that which was external, which coincided with reality and so you could appeal to true and everybody would know that is totally changes gone from being objective outside of yourself to objective truth with in yourself and so now basically would. The most popular phrase used youth culture over the world might be to be a bit of trooper knee simply means you believe it affected your life that is true for you no matter what. And so now I just finished a complete rewrite a new evidence that demands a verdict. Yes and Chapters are different present boy start out is there such a thing is true is what I wrote new evidence I connected. Eventually, now you have been through. Can you know truth is there such a thing as knowledge that you can have knowledge of history and so let's try one of the biggest differences and then the challenge is to be what it would challenge you. How do you know that's true. Now they say or what right do you have to say that your intolerant and it and it does shift away from objective truth. The subject that's probably the biggest and the other is 20 years ago.

Kids are saying what I want to deal with the problems of the world. Another say I've got a problem.

While that is shift from concern. So much for the world to the concern for the individual cottage and then of course that's rolled over into the expected marriage gender everything because of all truth is personal and what right do you have to judge anyone right if there is no external reference point and how can you say my lifestyle is not as righteous and just as your lifestyle. So that's kind of the case just don't want what about the fact that young people are getting exposed to objections to the Bible objections to God at younger ages today because of Internet social media while that's happening a lot younger aged. Most pastors of character, not waking up to this, the Internet is changed everything.

For example, questions that I used to hear about the dear Christ, the resurrection of the Bible truth, etc. by third fourth-year student University do now here at 1112 13 years old because the Internet is taken at younger and younger and younger and 20 years ago, atheists or agnostics had very little access to our young people today there just one click away. They have the same access to the church at and so but I don't mind that because I think we should be ready give the hope that writes the problem is, the Internet is brought all these questions up the young people, but the church as a prepared people answer and then what about the affective pornography on the younger generation has that been something that you've monitored as well. Oh yeah oh yeah about seven years.

As I started notice that you not apologist present truth but know there's something in the behavior that added to the true claims that young people are not what is pervasive Internet pornography and pornography right now is by far the greatest threat because the Christ biggest the church, nothing that you see the church comes close, but like checks with doctors that the greatest king of the church and if we don't deal with photography. I don't care how much you pray I don't care how much you teach the word of God. I don't care how many churches you start.

I don't have a group home group situation. Jab we will lose. We will lose it.

53% of pastors even though the pastor stay in our church. We don't have the pop up in our right knee is by the greatest disconnect in the history of the church between pastors and its people.

There's not one single church in the world and Africa, Asia, Indonesia, whatever that is not affected by pornography, not one. And here in United States. Only 7% of evangelical churches as any program or any means to help those addicted to pornography only 7% will initially help negative. Most people don't realize how big it there's 26 million pornographic website that I can access right this moment, I might double to Billy phonographic webpages now one night just one site in the last 30 day transfer data produced and transferred 29 GB of pornographic data in the last 30 days. What is 29.

By printed out one of 26 million site.

This one site 30 days would fill by under 40 million for drug ONLY one site in 30 days. Another site, every single day displeasure three or 65 days has produced about 1.2 to 1.3 PB distributed a pornographic data printed out every day they would fill the entire Empire State building another one every two seconds they began or bowel new pornographic videos.

The next one site so these three sites are not even in the top three and so these people say well I don't have to worry about it like it will look dark� Covered by light and it comes to melodic Christian mom homeschoolers but like it will probably won't. The issue is pornography will find them will buy them. So yes you you asked the right question with young people. The first thing that happened, they start to question authority. The authority of the Bible.

The audio Christ the authority of the church that boarded their parents for the first things second, they develop an aggressive view of sexuality, a very aggressive view and women now that are exploding with photography. Not all women are this way but so many of the research shows where my wife pornography to learn how to say their marriage and women and girls watch different types of photography photographers know that make they produce relational pornography for women or young girls, which is by the most rapid growing up photography, 13, 16 to 17-year-olds, or even younger. 11 they watch pornography for two reasons, mainly one jump in and get a break. We come back to finish this off this is devastating stuff. Josh McDowell then talked with his new book the beauty of intolerance time to be sober and vigilant friends.

My oh my. The line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice aboard cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown hey friends, this is Michael Brown your voice aboard cultural and spiritual revolution because I was unable to take your calls live last week was in Australia phone lines are open now 866-34-TRUTH 866-34-TRUTH 784 and a few minutes I will take your calls on any subject, to join a race to me of any kind.

So as a good time to call 866-34-TRUTH 7884 on tremendously honored to have with me Dr. Josh McDowell of no apologist that I know of in church history has had the world impact that he has by God's grace he brings with passion to continue to get the truth out to a lost and confused world. His latest book with his son Sean, the beauty of intolerance so Josh right before the break you were giving us staggering figures about homesick about pornography, staggering figures you're talking about porn that's specially made for for women or freer for girls that comes at it from a different angle for girls or just girls watch for, girls and women with more relational or set within a context of a relationship with man. It should straight out on hard-core with girls are watching porn mainly for two reasons. One, how can I keep my boy from what I need to do to keep my boyfriend for suspected. How can I get a boy met by their watch porn extraordinary so so Josh in insured and you obviously if the sound by things more than ever you have a generation that does not accept an external standard and that subject defies truth when you start to pointing to the fact that there is absolute truth, what I started with the fact that how do they determine reality. What is there consideration of truth and I have almost always been able to do this to bring it back to the my mind like the all correspondence theory of truth. Okay, that true is that would coincide with reality or truth is that which is or truth is that which is fidelity to the original be the same as equal to the facts and so say how do you know that she's hot. When asked me a question of how do you know that's true and I'll say what why does it even matter. I you want the truthful answer for the non-truthful answer always say glances the weather must be that which: what it is raining out like I'm staying here in Southern California while looking out over a beautiful park about 75� and it makes a statement what is snowing out.

I'll say is that a true statement. But how do you know truth is that which: side with reality out.

I there was already white stuff if I know this statement is true why it corresponded with reality. But in this situation the statement would be all because it doesn't correspond with reality and at the same and studying the Scriptures on the resurrection it says Christ was raised, how do you know that is a true statement. What you have to check out the evidence doesn't coincide with what is and what And that's usually how I start the divine truth that most people can amazing amazing but just the simple way to get them to sing, to draw them out.

Is that all right. The new book the beauty of intolerance.

Obviously that gets you in these days branded hater homophobe. They get trance fold.

Whatever other fold. There might be intolerance is an ugly saying you're saying in a right way, it can be a beautiful thing.

So explain effortlessness well. I created a T-shirt because a lot of unrest among big white letters across the black T-shirt that big letter intolerance admitted that is a beautiful thought people would walk up to the date that your race is your intolerance only get I would say a word to anyone. I just turn around the back it says is wonderful that Martin Luther King Jr. was intolerant of racist that Mandela was intolerant of apartheid that on Hopper was intolerant of racist back mother Teresa was intolerant of opportunity at everything the principal will I never realized that I said that's right. And so tolerance is a concept you really can't live it the number one virtue in the world today.

In almost every nation every university everywhere and you can't live it.

You can not live the concept of tolerance.

Why, because the work. Tolerance is gone through total change. That's why we had to write the book, the beauty that tolerance used to mean look I don't agree with you but you have a right to believe it, but I don't agree with today that is intolerant because today tolerance is shifted for all value, all believed all lifestyle all claims to truth are equal and if you say there's any value belief. Why start time to truth greater or lesser than another.

You are a bigot and intolerant when you can't get that way.

This is why the prime minister of England came out and said multiculturalism collar is a is a failed concept Merkel of Germany before the big convention of the young people are party kickboxer, multiculturalism, intolerant, is a failure, the president of the heart honored came out in the Parliament of usually saying tolerance is destroying our culture and this is probably why England just voted on breakfast to exit the EU mainly because of tolerance and multiculturalism in the way it destroy every culture so that's why we had to write the book. The beauty of intolerant person. Here's an example right now we have the evangelical church the first goal blown culture of tolerance in the faith � how can you say that look up an article 93% of those 24 years old and younger will say that they don't have a friend who would say intolerant is wrong and most of her friends are Christians. You take �18-�34 18 to 34-year-olds and they only one I percent would say they have up would say pornography is wrong right exactly you take the 18-year-old is 100. Ethel right now in the church, not in the church of 35 and younger 55% would say not recycling is immoral only 30% is amazingly enough, Josh McDowell, that's the music graviton folks. You gotta get the book. The beauty of intolerance. Thank you sir for what you've done for a whole generation. We are indebted to you.

Another thank you. It's the line of fire with your host activist, author, international speaker, and 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 phone lines are open on the line of fire.

Josh McDowell see have a message the sea have information see have truth which would have on the line of fire. Want to get Sean back on the air. We, Sean and Josh together one time that would be an absolute blast but yet just just look in his bio as is one myself that's been out and around staggering to see how the Lord has used him and opened doors for him to get the message of truth out around the world.

866-348-7884. Anything you want to ask me about any question you wanted to ask if you want to talk about today's a good day to call as a freshly back from Australia again, thank you for your prayers so here I am in Australia doing a lot of meetings focused on Jewish ministry that was the heart of my invitation for them to get them out of church preaching. Also the 21234 different locations in one, two, three, four, five, six different meetings and church settings that were not in Jewish related meetings. What are some of the big big issues they're dealing with nationally. They're dealing with the issue of redefining marriage there. It dealing with aggressive LGBT curriculum in the schools. There is a video that many have seen where an activist again activist pushing for the safe school curriculum as they call it the safe program that that he openly citizens about state safety of students and were not unsafe it's it's about getting our message out to schools. So here we are Australian these things are issues. Initial pornography boy a realistic our had the Sam with that arena stick our head in the sand with that is if it doesn't exist is if it's not real.

I was so writing new books that I'm working on to come out next year and talking about one of the chapters the plague pornography in the church and talking about how people younger younger kids younger and younger get exposed to it. It's often said the guesstimate for the average age the kids first encounter pornography is 11 that had a guest on a few months back that focuses on these issues and said it could be shown is eight now average first exposure to Prague presenting an understanding of sexuality that the setting and understanding of of the sexual act for your average eight-year-old are certainly there.

They're not thinking lustful thoughts and things like that in 88 years old and what kind of impact does it have a kind of impact does it have on kids as they grow and mature when exposed to these things, so I just written those words took a break for second check my email and there in the junk folder. You know, typical that some lady I'm waiting for you. I've got you know you just click in their absence. It's a real the onslaught. Of course everything we need is found in the Lord and the wisdom that we need is found in the Lord and the accountability and the the practical advice that we need is found in the Lord and when I sin the Lord that also means it's it's among God's people that we have everything we need to live an obedient life and live victoriously above these things. But if we don't recognize the urgency of the Alfred don't recognize the level of the plague, then certainly we will not effectively address it or combated by a little for the phones as soon as we get back on the other side of the break 866-34-TRUTH 87884 so much news with Donald Trump and evangelical Christians of and Holland will talk about the second hour have special guest David French joining me to talk about breaks it was having with Britain exiting from the European union for the dimensions on that. And, of course, in the aftermath of the Orlando massacre more and more people say the problem is Christian-based homophobia and I've written an article it's getting a lot of attention. Good Esther to Brown.org this could your browned alloy check on latest articles getting a lot of attention and what's it about. It is about when I can rewrite the Bible, Bible gays and lesbians. Write your calls as soon as we get back on the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown. Your voice is more cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown friends to the line of fire. Mike Brown so glad back from Australia. My longest in a long time thrilled to be back home and thrilled back in the studio with our great team here and thrilled to be taking your calls which I couldn't do in Australia so thanks for your patience in this, you, me, and thanks for team for holding things together so well in my absence from the country. 866340 we start in Alberta, Canada. Our friend Nick how you doing today buddy on a very good look around.

Are you good.

You know, it pays to calling from Canada because I tend to remember the provinces and the callers better. So good to hear from you will read on Lamar University. My friend who is going away and he started studying outreach. Today's material, Toby's finger yet and he started asking that all the stuff I had to know what to say and have any answers I came across your resource are countering the counter missionaries study down on the side and I gotta tell you, I'm just grateful for the information put together their realtor of my faith gave me challenges for him. Just amazing resource will sing on my question yes I just mentioned this quickly totally cigarette and I debated in the early 90s we we did it impromptu.

One of the house of a Russian messianic Jew that was recorded informally a number of people receipts of the tape recorders on the table and Tobia Singer asked me not to release those tapes which which we never did. So that should tell you something. We then get a debate on a show that said Roth had used have a different radio show format and it went to a large listening audience in New York City and then the three of us agreed on what calls to remove permits us to get down to a 90 minute tape and release that and thereafter Tobia refused every debate and again I reached out to him a lot that we had late-night dialogue number of times I was really interceding for him and then he cut me off and is refused to debate any circumstances, but when I wrote my five volume series answering Jewish objections to Jesus.

Toby's material was part of what I interacted with both her somebody different counter missionaries commission organizations books that are written that I wanted taken large range of objections that I encountered in decades of interaction with the Jewish community, the countering the counter missionaries DVD series DVD CD which is 22 hours long, and for which will soon be releasing a study guide as well. That one I more specifically focused on his material a Jews for Jesus letter. A leader raised it to me that his material had done a lot of damage and was filled with misleading misinformation. So I said you know what I I've had the same thought we partnered with Gateway church. They provided the video crew in the building and we record this series so his name is coming up more Tobia because he is actually trying to turn Gentile Christians away from Christianity going to countries like Indonesia and actively campaigning to turn Christians away from Christianity, which is a newer thing that he's been doing and perhaps something more lucrative. So in any case, that 22 volume or 22 hour series specifically refutes his material in a more focused way. And it's unfortunate.

He's a terrible mislead. We pray for his repentance and salvation, but it's unfortunate people have been confused.

So some Nick that material was of help to you when you presented to your friend. How did he respond will actually never had a good answer to the challenges and questions to point out and in Scripture that I learned from your duties and it really got the point where I realized what he was looking for truth yet made up his mind was going to come on Orthodox Jew, no matter what it and it wasn't based on facts anymore.

And at that point, a kind of ended our conversation we just pretty much had to go on to other topics you realized he was open.

Yet something wrong in the heart. I suspect you say that there are people that you presented with answers and they wrestle back and forth. You can see there trying to process them I had a couple talks like that with ultra-Orthodox to in in Sydney and then with a Christian who is wavering in in Melbourne and you can see their processing their sinking and there are others that obviously would no matter what you present the already made up their mind so to say. Anyway back that your questions are is sort of been reading through the Torah and I just spent five weeks in Israel have an enjoyable visual art and the location of the go to the books and I came across just escorting so differently to me than ever before with Abraham, a rescue squad in a battle takes place up by Dan in the north of Israel that that kind of music, wait a minute, but with Moses was the author of the Torah and then only becomes down later on in Judges 18 when Moses started passed on. Josh was Artie asked on then how is this is an odd and it was an anachronism that the word Dan is used for that town in northern Israel at the time of Moses been an offer of Genesis, so could you help you sort out out of the courtroom wrote the Torah and III really looked of coherency and I wanted to explain to people that stuff so I can know what what could you make sense of this yet.

Of course, these are great questions so if Moses wrote the five books of Moses that had a deal say with Genesis 12 the Canaanite was then in the land or how do you deal with the last 12 verses of Deuteronomy 34 that speak of the death of Moses, so these questions were asked as far back as the 12th century by one of the foremost Jewish biblical commentators Abraham Ibn Ezra someone that believes that the five books of Moses literally dictated to him.

How then to explain these things. I think Christian scholars dealt with this. With the rise of historical criticism and Jewish thinkers like Spinoza raising issues about this and then German scholars like Groff and Val Howson saying that no know that the Pentateuch is not written by Moses. In fact, the Pentateuch is the last indicates written it's written in the exile and the postexilic period, etc. and that you have these references if someone wonders what anachronistic would be so would be out of out of time. Historically, it would be like saying and and Abraham Lincoln texted this on his cell phone didn't have cell phones and have texting so so that couldn't be or if you said and eight Abraham Lincoln was was referencing Ronald Reagan in his speech. Know that that couldn't happen.

So how do we explain these things the simplest answer and it was that given by Princeton scholar Robert Dick Wilson in the 1800s is that there are clearly additional glosses, there are clearly statements that are made afterwards by other authors like the death of Moses or like the Canaanite was then in the land, but they are equally inspired there is to say that Moses wrote the Pentateuch is not to say that he had to written every word of there could have been accounts that were passed on to him that he then wrote down about the earlier days of human history that that the Godhead had left her a record with others.

We don't know that they could've all been penned freshly by him but to say that Moses wrote it is not to mean that he wrote every single word every single syllable, but that he is the basic author and then if there are additional statements and you do have a number that you have to see it as later then those glosses, those additions are equally inspired by other authors.

That's the issue thus inspiration doesn't mean that Moses had to written every word inspiration means that every word written had to be God's word. That's what it means and there's no reason even a battle over those and then sometimes is just over process of time for clarification, a certain reference wouldn't have meaning if you put the updated city, then it would have meaning for right through her prescribed were transmitting the correct user at one point may be to write an altogether.yeah and in the fact is, they would make cavalier changes that's will resend it. We believe if there were there were editorial hands that working most of the books or many of the books week. We certainly suspect is a commitment editorial hands involved. For example, when I wrote my chair.

My commentary did Jeremiah edit every word of it could be something that the roots describe when it was done edited things and some of the book is first-person. Some of its third person of so Mike and Paul has a scribe writing for him. So this describe do any editing and what he's writing or does he sharpen the. The sentence structure, anything to him and that's that all can be debated, but our belief is the overall process was inspired by God and someone said look, but if if light is refracted through a multicolored window. Then the light comes out differently. On the other side and answers. But if God made the window to reflect the light the way he wants it refracted then the end product is equally from the Lord and that's how we have to look at the author authorship of these books recommend me to read on the authors of the Old Testament in the American legal documents. I mean, there are a number of books that have been written if you just if you just get us a standard look like Gleason Archer's survey of the Old Testament, Gleason Archer, top Old Testament scholar and wrote one of the more important surveys that really stress these things that the good place to start.

Gleason Archer, a survey of the Old Testament that will be helpful. I got to go to thank you for the call 866-34-TRUTH right back with her calls on the inside of her.

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. Hurray. Back go 8664 truth. Let's go to Jessica in Indianapolis a Jessica walking to the line of fire Mike Jeremy yes I can have a program about three months now at the way I found out about Brian told her you know I am in Bible believing church. I am a Christian I do often. I with teaching class that I found out that I was hungry for more than what I was thinking of what I know my vocabulary is nowhere near your like the lab, no back and neck that you explained it about our Shirley at the five why some I'm not a world, but I don't longer or more data not know one of the way that both the understanding to fill myself feeling like the Ethiopian unit built joints attempted. Any good read. Now, how about the one that Mike demanded, for I would like appoint an erection where I would die don't know Greek and I don't know what I do know what the tour is fine when I'm working on the net Internet like midrash did not know what none of that is I went to have a midlife that would not have Jessica so I love I love your spirit.

I love you to this and I love the way your expressing this, let me just say there plenty words. I have to look up to it all and all depends on what field were in. You know, but how about we do this, how about I send you a free copy of a book called 60 questions Christians ask about Jewish beliefs and practices raw. Explain what midrash is and what we mean by Torah and all these other things it's it's real clear.

You'll enjoy reading it and it's just just a gift to you in celebration of you being one of our newer listeners house that okay really appreciate it. Thank you so much at both at home. Thank I wanted to go will not help that we we we put us all yet we put some classes online and were hoping to do it more extensively, but but thank you. This is another reminded us to work on the hate stay right there. Jessica Howard is going to get your address and ready to send you a free copy of 60 questions Christians ask about Jewish beliefs and practices. Thank you for the call, a much appreciated.

I we go to Los Angeles I was in and out of a couple times in the last 10 days flying on the way in and back from Australia. Shlomo welcomes the line of fire around a question.

I believe her and I do believe I guess you are the Messiah, but had a question to part but in your opinion how do we, how would you define that we know that Matthew Mark Luke and John wrote those Gospels as we know the name with an attribute to them, yes. And since they don't sign it in that way the question is how how do we know that for sure. The first thing is it's not an issue. If a different apostle wrote it or something like that in the reserve. If some say Andrew wrote the gospel of Mark and I got attributed to Mark who is not an apostle himself or if it was Matthew wrote John or something. That's all material and in another, it's because it doesn't say in the text Matthew wrote this or Luke wrote this and Luke to learn from the apostles and check that the accounts it's really not a life-and-death issue to affirm it. Follow me. It's one thing to say what they wrote is true. It's acidic and signed their names to it because of that we don't have to make that a hill to Diane. However, from what we can tell from the overwhelming testimony of the. The first six centuries believers.

Another was the disciples of the apostles and those who wrote things down and those who then quoted them. This was the large attestation that Matthew wrote. Matthew and Mark Luke and John wrote their Gospels that this was largely attested to and it was passed on in that respect.

And if you want to do some good academic study on this from another angle get Richard Balcom's book BA you CK HAM Richard Balcom, Jesus and the eyewitnesses and it's a great scholarly volume but Hill Hill really show you why we can tell this is eyewitness testimony. That's the biggest thing and then click. Of course, compiling from eyewitnesses and then secondarily will distill why we believe the different author the different cost was really written by those people. Thank you for that. It we have the early attachment of the early church why they do we ignore their testimony that the Gospels, even Paul's writings were written in Hebrew, not Greek. I thought some of their testimony. It's it's the this nothing that says Paul's letters were written in Hebrew zero. Guess it doesn't say Paul's letter I will Jerome rotated ecclesiastic.

PP wrote that Paul wrote Hebrew and helically translated the Greek and Hebrews Hebrews okay but Hebrews is not the consensus, the written on this extensively so the consensus on Hebrews is we don't know who wrote it. There is some attestation among a handful of the church leaders mainly relying on the earliest testimony of Pappy us that Matthew compiled the sayings of Jesus in Hebrew, or it could mean Aramaic right or that there were some that's all Methodist whole gospel even as we have it with translation of the compiled the sayings of Jesus in Hebrew, but it could be translated in Aramaic. That's one thing that Jerome said that he had seen among the Jewish Christians still lived as Jews that he had seen that he seen Hebrews in Heber and possibly even some of the other writings in Heber and there's Jewish tradition in the Talmud that mentions some gospel writing in Heber but we have is zero fragments of any ancient manuscripts of the Gospels in Hebrew or Aramaic zero all fragments and full manuscripts in Greek, and the fact that all of the church leaders are quoting them in Greek or in Latin, from the Greek, but none of them are quoting an original Hebrew or Aramaic so it's possible that, so that, so universal testimony is quite against what you're saying Ashley to get more honest research online put my name in."

Thank you brother file 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 national and some of the British people breaks it.

The big news in this last week Britain leaving the European Union. This is Michael Brown.

Welcome back to the line of fire. So this news broke when I was in Australia and on the line of fire. I address issues that I have expertise in that I focused on. Otherwise, we open things up for discussion. We we bring in special guest to discuss things because I was in Australia we had previously scheduled, special guests and I can take your calls on the broadcast.

When I did broadcast. I thought to bring someone on the can address this intelligently thrilled to bring to broadcast for the first time, David French, David, a staff writer at national review.

He's an attorney for years was a senior leader in the alliance. Defending freedom is a veteran of raw operation Iraqi freedom author or co-author of several books including most recently the note number one New York Times best-selling rise of Isis and you may have. You may have heard his name in recent weeks because he was put forward as a potential presidential candidate as an alternative to Donald Trump and that for a lot of attention to David French and his family and after reflecting on it he felt was not the thing for him to do, but David would've voted for you just to let you know that this is David French.

Welcome to the line of fire for the first time. Thanks so much for having me and I appreciate your vote of confidence. Yeah, you have one vote anyway. You know that in all seriousness though, in and out. I would have voted actually for you, but I I read a ton of stuff online constantly discuss my own writing and my own interest in the radio show, but is been really regular national review, you become my famous that my favorite among economists.

So many things you're addressing. I also address, especially with the moral and cultural issues and and I love the way you dress them. The clarity with which you address them and the consistency with which you do so is a really thank you for the hard work.

I know it goes into doing this as I write 3 to 5 columns of a week as well.

So thank you for the efforts to do this well thank you very much. I privilege to write for NASCAR to you � unfortunately, I kind of a bad time to be writing in our nation faces extraordinary political crisis and work going through an extraordinary moral crisis well yeah we we absolutely are not without hope that with urgency for sure he did before we get your perspective on the European Union and on Britain's exit just a few things that I know are themes you touch on all the time. Number one. Are you still never tromped, and if so why yeah I I am never tromped and not how much time do we have so many, let me just put it this way. I think essentially what happened. The presumptive nominees of both major parties are. We've ended up nominating. Essentially, a Democrat, as the GOP nominee and a corrupt and a corrupt and and will and dishonest Democratic that in one of the things that I think it's the most painful about the Trump phenomenon is it's not just that he's completely ignorant of foreign affairs economic affairs. It is not just that he's flipped all over the place and all of its position before. One thing one day can for the next is not ready doesn't understand the value of our foreign alliances and the Vatican and doesn't have the slightest understanding of the of the real entry strategy hide what's required to confront it. It's also that he's just so fundamentally dishonest all the time and I believe that the active advocating for him and for a person of that low character is going to have a negative effect particularly on the Christian community there going to be finding themselves consistently in the position of defending the indefensible. For example saying yes I know that what he thing is racer fomenting an enormous amount of racial division in the country level form anyway. Yes I know that he has been treats women horribly mocks the disabled above vote for him anyway.

I think that that has a terrible effect on people. I understand that their lives are going to go into the voting booth and you look at the choice between Hillary and tromping. Maybe Gary Johnson and just hold their nose in the truck.

I get that under and it but what I don't understand is that notion in the act of using whatever God-given gifts and talents. We have advocate for that man to advocate for him becoming leader of the free world.

I can't. I can't get there in any way shape or form an article she reflected on the role of the church. You explained my words.

My paraphrase was not primarily to form a coalition behind a particular candidate, but rather to be the church in society. So even if Hillary came in and appointed were Supreme Court justices that that doesn't stop us from doing what was supposed to do, nor does it obligate us to back another candidate if we have issues in conference with that yeah you know that the moral witness of the church should be sacrificed for the chance but the chance but Trump might appoint one or two better Supreme Court just moral witness of the church is far more important than Madden and I'm I must say that I'm a little bit mystified by this dictation on one or two justices of the Supreme Court. The court is already pretty terrible as we've seen just in this past week. Yes like the notion that you can fixate on the chance because we don't actually know what triple duty. The only thing that we know Trump will do it. He will do what he believes is best in his own self interest at the only thing that we know you'll do that we don't know exactly what that Supreme Court will look like, but we do know he doesn't know anything. And in fact has incredibly destructive ideas in a wide variety of other arenas that are extraordinarily important to me in the foreign policy arena alone. Here's willingness to seemingly willingness to discard and toss aside alliances that it kept the key larger piece in the world for more than 70 years could be one the most destructive acts of any American president in the history of the country and yet we just sort of dismissed that as if it barely relevant because it may be you might select one or two decent Supreme Court justices or the fact that he is so ignorant about the economy and so aggressively silly about it that he could Barak absolutely correct our national economy. Spending struggling middle class families in poor families into worst economic condition, but that's okay because maybe he might appoint one or two Supreme Court justices, you know, when you look on balance the debt making it all who appointed Justice Kennedy, Reagan right so if we think that he's the swing vote on the horrific redefinition of marriage decision and that now he swung for the first time in on the abortion side with this ridiculous ruling few days back as well that that raises questions by the way up my Facebook page were approaching 400,000 fans, but you can't easily do a survey there that's immediately tallied so I do the mainly on Twitter since only a small sampling we've got 21 1/2 thousand twitter followers. But I posted yesterday. My views on voting for Trump or and I gave four choices still for Trump still never tromped up from against her for and from against to maybe so. There were 21% still for Trump. There were 9% have gone from against her for their 20% have gone from against to maybe put their 50% say still never tromped so opposite doesn't bode well again, just my little cross-section here that doesn't bode well for him in terms of the coming election. But again, we continue to pray for God's best and recognize the role of the church remains the same right. One last question for you and them will switch over that breaks it got about a minute and 1/2 for this one. I still use the term radical Islam for the standard reasons, but you recently wrote why you don't use the term anymore.

What's that, yeah, I use the term jihadist.

It is actually describing what the theology the theology of that holy war and also I don't I sometimes am uncomfortable with the term radical Islam because it would buy that their beliefs are necessarily radical within the Muslim world. I think in in entire nations in entire regions.

The via the jihadist worldview isn't radical, all white mainstream and so were often when we talk about radical Islam. I think inadvertently perhaps minimizing the network or diminishing the actual level of threat.

We have a threat from jihadist jihadists are quite mainstream and many Muslim communities around the world and their viciously deadly as jihadists have always been throughout history, so I tend to use that term because I think it's more accurate and I because I think that jihadist Islam is more mainstream than people realize and and more mainstream than people help got it all clear like friends, we come back I'll speak with attorney David French about the significance of Britons leaving the European Union implications for America as well.

You can read his writings on a regular basis as I do@nationalreview.com or you can get his best-selling book on the rise of Isis bookstores are on right back by the Expo line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown your voice and more cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown was devised to make sure that the great mass of the people could not control government ever again. Janet Daly speaking about breaks it.

Speaking about the vote and speaking about the larger implications of this. Michael Brown just got back from Australia last night delighted to be with you today, speaking with attorney and author David French, David II just not followed the breaks it situation that closely and I just I thought the boat was gonna turn out the way it did. For some reason even though polls were expecting the opposite first why do you think the vote went the way it did. And secondly, why is this having such worldwide implications. Or maybe the media is blowing it up but what's going on what I've heard, you know you can't.

You can't look at the boat and you just think of it in terms of short-term trend that the reality is that that Great Britain had always had an uneasy relationship with the European pot, endocrine, precise role of Great Britain and that continent has been fought over sometimes literally for centuries and so you know, Britain was hardly all in on the you to begin with. It kept the pound.

For example, and didn't adopt the euro and so this boat is a product both of short-term transit off of this long-term and easy. That's essentially what the British people didn't they. They said that they wanted in the in the exit pollsters showed that this was the case, both on the more liberal in the more conservative voters delete that they wanted decisions been implicated, but the UK to be made by the voters of the UK. They didn't want to delegate their sovereignty. Multinational organization. In other words, they think essentially reclaimed independent granting themselves the same power to govern themselves that merit that Americans have and take for granted.

So that's what they did, it shouldn't be super all that surprising that the people of Britain would choose this, but I think one of the reasons why there has been such a on an unbelievable hysterical reaction is that this cuts against this notion, this progressive notion of history that says that history has aside and it has its own momentum and that momentum is moving away from nationstate moving away from third of nationalism or patriotism in moving towards this more globalized governmental system where you have a multinational government organization there direct democracy is a vanishing more in favor of rule by international technocratic elite in Philly. This progressive notion that history is being in the last five years or so is just taking body blow after body blow in the bracket decision is just the latest blow against this notion of history and if you're progressive you think an awful lot on the idea that history had died, and what the bracket wrote that the AK, Your entire argument into real doubt as to what one of the implications, then for America. When I got an interesting question.

I do think there are some common threads on both sides of the Atlantic, where people are getting fed up with the regulatory these regulatory the regulatory superstate rule by unelected bureaucrats that up with the international and and domestic elite that truth be told in all that elite begin with, but that can manifest itself in very different way pending on each country in bracket the way it manifested in England is very much in keeping with English history would British history and very much in keeping with British unease with the continent more generally, here in the US it you know course, we have a different history. We have different challenges but we do have problems with the regulatory superstate you have problems with a technocratic elite bend. I've done a pretty good job of putting together a system that works well for them, not as much for everybody else but you know when as an every time there is a every time there is a revolution whether that no political revolution or armed revolution. It's the responsibility of the revolutionaries to put together something better than what they overthrew so this is only half the battle in bracket now time for a responsible leadership to extricate extricate England from the EU and responsible leadership going forward on forcing here in the US a lot of our sort of revolutionary my mind that both in and through the standards and from campaign is answering this failing establishment with us with tailed cat you know failure candidate so it yet you don't get to pick your poison you go with a failed a leader you to go with failure.

Candidate socialist sleep. Just focus a couple more minutes on America and obviously you focused on this to the point that you put forth as a potential presidential candidate.

So these are issues you reflected on deeply, our mutual friend attorney John Franco and I have discussed for years now.

She's having to do with LGBT activism and the implications thereof, but as conservative leaders as well as lovers of people and individuals as are looking ahead in this whole mess of the progressive view of history.

Is there a sense of inevitability that there's no way America can turn back from where it's going or it has to be a major crash first that that that's with history teaches us with this is the way things are progressing toward you say okay it's a dire situation but absolutely change can come when you know the only thing that the inevitable and history of Christ ultimate victory.

Brown you know any given shrink any given cultural or historical trend until until Christ's victory ultimate victory is is is temporary is transient. It not inevitable in our nation's gone through multiple waves where it drifted away from God come back to the Lord to meet you know you don't call something a great awakening in my people were slumbering before the awakening right so it to describe any sort of historical trend is inevitable, irresistible is fundamentally wrong, and in fact if you dig down into the number you will see that America is becoming more secular. Yes, but it also becoming more religious. Though the secular population is growing in the evangelical population growing in those people who are more nominally more nominal believers are tending to fall by the wayside.

What that means.

The actual trend is not necessarily as much towards regularization, although that's certainly happening in some parts of the country. But towards more polarization though. I think we will see polarization and division before we will see ultimate triumph say of the secular progressive point of view right. By the way, if unless you read Rodney Stark's book the triumph of faith, but he really does dispel the myth of just the complete secularism of society or even Europe and what he indicates is the old Chesterton adage that when people don't believe in God or something believe in nothing that they believe in anything so right and you know you'll have like a higher percentage of atheists who believe in UFOs or things like that so is that the boy gets filled one way or another, but a David, thanks for being on the front lines. I keep up the good work. I don't think Jonah Goldberg knows me personally but tell them I said hi. I will I will. Thanks so much that I it's the line of fire with your host activist and 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 will so so while I was in Australia's hear the sound English Nath national anthem.

The big news with Britain pulling out of the European Union, the world shock it in the aftermath of that shock among American politicians and media leaders and all kinds of implications reminded me. It reminded me that I her teachers over the years that based on the book of Revelation in this 10 headed kingdom that that was the European Union and all the prophetic pieces were falling in place.

I've always told people really keep a prophetic calendar doing pencil because a lot of the correspondence. It is corresponds to this. This corresponds to that. A lot of it can get. If either something is very clear that something's not so clear. We got a major on the majors. This is Michael Brown back from Australia I got home last night and flight was delayed just a little bit landing coming in to my home city because of some thunderstorms at the last minute, but otherwise I got home about 30 hours after leaving Melbourne, Australia, and I just I just want to say this, Nancy and I are putting the final touches on our book, breaking the stronghold of food. I wrote it with her meeting with her comments and insights, along with my story and while in Australia bunch people want to talk to because reading together in there watching the way the salads and different things. These healthy soups and there were talking to me about it and the benefits of course people think weight loss weight loss is the biggest thing of course, that is a big thing, especially when you if you way your proper weight, your normal waste. What you should way for certain height then so many health risks just go away or greatly diminish, but it's not just that they're all these other benefits so I'm coming back from Australia and I got I don't know for I have five hours sleep and then finish packing and left at 530 in the morning Melbourne time is about an hour and quarter drive to the airport and then at the airport than I was an hour and 1/2 like the city that a couple hours in Sydney and then from Sydney to LA about a 14 something hour flight that I had missed three hours there and then when ended up, because the lays 5 1/2 hour flight back from LA to to North Carolina and when I got off the plane that we did use miles I was upgraded to business class overseas that makes a big difference. You could you could actually put your seat all the way back in and lay down, but in sleep much. I did a good amount of writing. I watch some you got a selection of things you can watch from a want some stuff when I was tie-dyed at the did sleep, but when I when I got in when I landed, so this is after now, almost 20 hours since I left the first place and getting off the plane here and your body clocks completely off. It's time still the office, I agree. My luggage does have me the first one getting off the plane.

This row was sitting. I grab my computer bag which is pretty heavy and that a bagger had some healthy food. I was traveling with some take the escalator of bounded up the steps and every other step just bounded up the steps walked as fast as I could to get the passport control just to get my legs moving in to get a little little exercise and then on the way down to baggage claim grabbed onto the escalator on either side just the top myself up in with my feet in the air so that I could just hold myself up using tricep muscles down the escalator for little exercise.

Got my luggage put on a cart and jogged at it one Sprint jogged over to where I had to recheck the baggage for the flight and I just thought meditates.

It pays eating healthy. It really pays course workouts help myself of an escalator, but it really pays and pays dividends and we can't wait for this book to come out. It's due out early exterior view be able to get it through our broadcast time for Christmas anyway. This will you be a good report.

866 to 10 women do because I was unable to take live calls. We had Internet speed connection issues while in Australia, so I I did broadcast from Australia but I couldn't take your calls and use our normal life format. Because of that the phone lines are now open for anything under the sun that you want to talk to me about, especially if I have some expertise and if you want to talk to me about grass growth trends in northern Dakota of North Dakota that's just fine. I want have anything to say about but we're going to ask me question you want to raise anything you want to challenge me on in terms of any area of expertise I have, by all means give me a call 866-348-7884 is the number to use. Okay I probably read whole article about this, but what about what about the question of evangelicals and Donald Trump.

If I had been in the states last week, I would have gone to the meeting with Donald Trump and evangelical leaders, just to be there just to observe but what happened was this exactly what I would've expected would've happened exactly what I would've expected, which is that the evangelicals that were there would have been impressed with Donald Trump's humility and his openness, they would have liked his answers and they would have wished for more that we would be my assumption and that's pretty much what I've heard from virtually everyone that was there. That's what I have read in terms of their assessments.

Now that's that's a negative. I think it's positive that he reached out evangelicals. He's hearing the gospel over and over from different people that's positive. I know some of James Robison regular guest here on the want to fire as we collaborate on the stream stream.org. He spent over an hour and 1/2 along with Donald Trump and his son so II knew that that happened. In fact, he texted me the day he was leaving just asking for prayer and I'm I know James well enough to know who she's can speak the truth and uncompromisingly as you did in love and I fully mention it afterwards because there is there is. He spoke about more open. I know others who privately and not announce weight have brought the gospel Donald Trump one on one another small groups that have met with him and certainly he wants to say things that evangelicals want to hear and I believe he thinks of himself as Christian and I believe that he wants to defend Christianity as he understands it on the fact that he keeps bringing up the run up to the evangelicals. Their egos can bring Christ back in Christmas I to me that's about if I had a list of a thousand priorities. That's way down the list except for what it symbolizes.

Except for the symbolizes and the larger culture that is is obsolete not a battle for for me to fight again except for the symbolizes in the larger culture of but I and I have no problem with people saying they were never Trump now there may be Trump vote form. I had a guest on the last half-hour David French you remains a never Trump never Trump man and he gave in her ticket number reasons for it, but I fully understand whether my friends plan to vote for for Trump, NY; from never to maybe understand and I respect that and now there are reports from James Dobson that he knows a businessman who led Donald Trump to the Lord. So he's a brand-new Christian. I hope that's true actually hope that's true and I hope that prophecy saying that he's going to be the next president because he was a very positive way that those are true. As I've said many times I absolutely hope that I'm wrong in my concerns and I am not discouraging you from voting for Trump norm. I even tell you what I plan to do right now.

Someone asked me who my voting for us. It asked me late October and will see what is boiled down to with the candidates we have an where things are at and and how the candidates are speaking behaving again during a miraculous conversion and transformation. Hillary Clinton.

I cannot possibly vote for that that I'm sure of, but I I get concerned when I see people maybe were not used to being in the settings maybe were not use to when I say we evangelical leaders having access to a candidate or something like that. How easily we can be kind of moving in on hiding and taken and without realizing like every claim could've been there. I can say things that would have excited a lot of the evangelicals options with directly changer abortion positive things with those politicians know how to say things or or this leaders with that he be a great reality TV star. You know how to say things or if your graded closing a deal. You not to say things is not to say Donald Trump didn't mean what he said I hope we did hope we did Tom delay was negative on the meeting and he said that looked nobody asked Miquel out of all the questions submitted are just a handful that were answered and nothing was really pressed. Was it would've been great, compress them. That's what were therefore present present but but when Tom delay said could've asked him okay what is it is values from that would've been helpful right or have you read the Constitution. If so, what are your thoughts on those oven great questions those were asked so I don't know that we know anything more about Donald Trump or about where he's going about what his position as I don't think we know anything more now than we did before except he wants to get the evangelical vote and I believe he generally wants to be a champion of the evangelicals but if that conflicted with self-interest he had, or conflicted with his larger plans to be elected or if that would transfer over what he would actually do one selected only God knows 866-34-TRUTH to the phones we started in Richmond, Virginia Brian, welcome to want to fire Dr. Brown about thanks man is great to be back or dream girl girl merit�] God for those who want listening in the first hour.

The highlight of my trip. After speaking 21 times in 10 days was a 14-year-old girl coming up to me in tears telling me what a role model. I've been in her life and then crying on my shoulder just yet beyond beyond words to hear wonderful things like that, but yes or what's on your mind to your what was going on. This country or in the log. There were with me and told an object America to pray for God to guide you know just Dr. help us in this country Benghazi report came out today. I don't know if you got a chance to read on where they stared that boat Guillory of the president knew what was going on.

If those people were killed never sent anybody and to help those people out and you know what I just really really really that were being a lot on such a manner math by Jacob on all different. The government tell you, Brian. It can be frustrating and look just the report that was issued that the thing was sparked by this this anti-Mohammed movie the guy gets arrested here in the states is America in the restaurant for happy. How horrific is that happens right in front of her eyes, but we we knew it wasn't true right from the beginning there was all kinds of evidence it wasn't true and that it was a talking point that was circulated intentionally. But here's here's why think things are at. Brian there is enough that's out there. There is enough information south or online. Of course, is crazy stuffing set as well, but there is enough out there that people believe what they want to believe meaning there there is enough information about Benghazi about our neglect. There and and how that led to the death of our people. And from what seems clear to me a complete mishandling of it by then Secretary of State Clinton and the damning report comes out. Will it affect the election. I don't think so because people do believe that they believe the Democratic responses.

What a waste of money and this vindicates a present Obama and Hillary Clinton. They did nothing wrong and there is nothing that was lied about, etc. etc. so if it feels like we present something fax truth here is prayer eyes if you couldn't believe what they want to believe this of the first sentences happen. It's human nature, but it's scary to see it happen on this level and SME listening is like one of course, of course, Hillary Clinton is exonerated of course Barack Obama's exonerate I don't shake my head on that one will be right back in the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice aboard cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown thanks for joining us, Michael Brown, fresh Estrella and its nothing in the home, take a little nap.

I we go to Fort Worth, Texas, Izzy, welcome to the line of fire.

Hello, I thanks for the invite Colin, but any thing under the sun.

So anyhow I am I to question about the 12 tribes of Israel years ago had a family member tell me that they had read something that you know pretty much all the tribes of Israel have gone throughout the world and that essentially everybody is somehow Jewish and I blew it off and recently she's more people told me the same thing and I haven't really done any research on it what you hello and off blood flow and blood big time, way, way, way, way off complete other sheer nonsense rubbish. Aside from the fact that, statistically, demographically, is complete rubbish in that you're talking about the exiling of hundreds of thousands versus a several million people that get scattered right in the know in no way would that people than over the course of time successfully intermarry with people around the rest of the world so that everybody has some kind of Israelite blood complete nonsense. There is a view and what some call the two house theory that all those who are followers of Jesus are ultimately able to trace their ancestry back to one of the 12 tribes is complete nonsense. And when Jacob James writes his letter to the 12 tribes scattered abroad and when Paul enacts speaks of of the 12 tribes. This remains a definable concept even in the of the New Testament era when the 10 tribes as a specific entity had been largely lost to history. It is true that there are pockets of groups that can successfully trace themselves back on some level to the 12 tribes of Israel like the lumber people in Zimbabwe. As I understand it DNA tests if I'm recalling this correctly, give them some and has ancestral heritage, such as from Africa but going back to the Middle East, perhaps the same is happening in India and some of the places where things can be traced back. We know that with the inquisitions and crusades that in in countries like Spain and Portugal that there were Jews who outwardly converted to Christianity, but secretly maintain Jewish identity over a period of time and there people in Latin America today or in Spain or Portugal who say you know I've got Jewish roots and there's some truth to it.

However, this idea that the 12 tribes or doubt intermingled nominations is absolute complete nonsense and their other people groups that were exiled and that no longer exist as a people and they're gone they're gone. We don't think will the whole world now is intermixed with the Philistines of all the self. Now this is nonsense. It is historically untrue. This demographic nonsense as well. So don't even think twice about it. But thank you Izzy for the call you called the right day to ask the question. Let's see, let's go to Bobby and High Point, North Carolina hey young man that answered the phone fell abatement 83rd third birthday 25 May and remain state big live in this loan you learn a whole lot is working with the public, which I did AT&T for I was 32 years and worked with papal all evidence world anyway at that was watching Gary Burton last night. He's written crisis of character. He was a sacred service man for you. Let them think that woman straight out a halo. I think she would do more damage to America and were in terrible shape.

I could have lived a long time never saying our nation in such terrible shape of the whole world as part back at that. We panned down the later and I really pride for Donald Trump. I don't know.

Hey stands a little art I don't know how you stand out what people say a lot of people Obama for the crate� Thinking that I'm not so bad there. When you stay ungodly mass and I'll lie papal name lap one fan down unindent thing to Bob and they don't belong to the Lord yet but anyway described Mr. Frank went out to look back down, because if you don't doubt your but it's what going to happen and I think this country can implant and I think it direction, meditating it whale yet will I just got a jump in only because I'm coming to the end of the program. The first thank you for being so articulate and passionate, clearheaded, and to the point at 80 years old when example to the rest of us number one number two regarding your concerns for Hillary Clinton.

I share them. Number three David French shares them. However, David French feels there are better things that we can do then vote for Donald Trump and he gave his reasons for strong reasons for believing that Donald Trump to be a disastrous candidate as well. As I said I'm not telling people not to vote for him nor have I come to the truth that I'm doing the thank you. Let's talk more, please call another day friends. My bottom line today. The American shaking even falling apart the kingdom of God stands firm and strong
