We still may have not gone beyond intellectual recognition. There still may not be any affection that has arisen from our hearts or from our souls. The awakening of that sensibility, that sensitivity to the excellence of the things of God, to the sweetness of the things of God is something that is done by the Holy Spirit.

The Spirit works in the Word, with the Word, and through the Word. For today's special offer, visit renewingyourmind.org. It's Matt Slick live, taking your calls at 877-207-2276. Here's Matt Slick. Hey, everybody. Welcome back to the show. Two open lines. Call 877-207-2276.

Chris from Ohio. You're back on the air, buddy. All right, yes. I want you to touch on these two things right here.

Number one, I'm going to start with the latter part. I just forgot that. I just cleaned my mind just now. What do you think about what the Chinese, what China's doing, I believe it's trying to, out there turning their soldiers into almost like super soldiers almost, making them more immunocode and making them a little bit stronger. What do you think about that? I haven't heard that in particular. You haven't heard about that?

No, but I have heard about certain drugs that are being administered and experimented on for soldiers that cause them to be, well, let's just say better soldiers. Yeah, I've heard about this. Wow, yeah.

Yeah. Thank you, man. I forgot the last one.

It was good, but I forgot it. Thank you. That's all right. It's okay. This is a concern that I've had, and I did some research.

Check this out. Did we shut down our economies for the Hong Kong flu back in 1968? So I'm 64, so I remember these, okay? When AIDS came out in 1981, the SARS virus in 2003, and that was a coronavirus, SARS was, and MERS from 2012, that was a coronavirus also. The swine flu of 2009, Zika in 2015. Why is it that this one, we've got to shut down everything? It's a problem, because everybody, they shut down the economy, basically. Millions of people lost jobs. The economy's in bad, bad shape, and now we've got the leftist, a $2 trillion stimulus package. You don't just print money. It causes inflation, which means we end up losing our money value, and this is a solution that they've got for these things. Why didn't we shut down the economy for these other things? We didn't. I remember we went through these things, and if you guys out there are interested, there's a book that slipped through on Amazon, because Amazon most probably wanted to get rid of it, but it became the number one bestseller very quickly. It's called The Faucian Bargain, F-A-U, you know Fauci, Faucian Bargain. It's really interesting.

There's a lot of good information in there. The overall clinical consequences of COVID-19 may ultimately be more akin to those of severe seasonal influenza, which is a fatality rate of 0.1%. Wearing a mask may also have unintended consequences. People who wear masks tend to touch their face more often to adjust them, which can spread germs from their hands, so as they're coughing, if they have this, they adjust their mask. I did.

I wore a mask for a while, and I'm constantly adjusting it, and I had trouble breathing, so I was constantly moving it and then touching other things. Go shopping. It's just ridiculous what they're doing. Anyway, I recommend people do research. I'm the kind of person, and I cause problems this way, I'm the kind of person who believes in trusting God and going out and doing something. I don't believe in just trusting God and sitting around. I did swap meet ministry for two and a half years.

I used to dress up like a punk or go down to the beach in Southern California. I did phone ministry. I went to prison ministry for nine years.

I've done website karma, radio, write books, do debates. I believe in going out and doing. That's me. If you don't do all that I do, don't worry about it. That's just me. I believe that Christians are obligated to do something, whatever that might be in your particular case. Amen.

That's all. But the thing is, how can we sit around? We have to be aware of what's going on. We're called to be aware. We're called to know truth, and we're called to study. Don't just follow what everybody tells you, especially some guy named Slick on the radio.

Do your homework and do study. You can't say there's a guy named Slick on the radio. That guy's talking to a guy today who, I think his name was Keith, I'm bad with names, and he says he's out there in the Carolinas. Every now and then I call donors and say, hey, thanks for supporting. So many I can't do it all. But we got to talk and he says, the reason I listen to you, man, is because you go to the scriptures. You go to the word of God. I'm like, amen, brother.

Cause that's what you got to trust the word of God. You know? Oh, yep. Okay.

Good stuff, man. It is. Um, you know, I, uh, I'll let you go, but one last thing, man, so long, then I'll just hang up or whatever, but, um, how do you feel about as far as the vaccine is about the long term? I feel like it's very, I'm not trying to go too far here to just, you know, off the wagon, but we don't know what these vaccines could do to people in 10 years. They could turn to anything.

We don't, we don't know what it can do. Um, it just seems a little bit crazy. Yeah. There's a, there I did to do research on it.

Um, they're supposed to go to Israel next year and it looks like it's going to happen and it looks like all Israel is going to do is require a quick test when you arrive and that's all that's going to be necessary, which is very quick. Uh, now there are, I've heard the Johnson and Johnson, this is what I've heard. Maybe people know more than me about this, which I'm sure is out there that I'm hurt. I've heard that that is not the one that causes DNA alteration and, um, so that's what concerns me.

I don't want my DNA altered, but I've heard also that there are past, uh, vaccines that do have that effect. So it's like, which ones, you know, we've already got them. I don't know.

It's just got a lot more research to do and I'm in the middle of so many things. Yeah. I'll find out more. All right, brother. Thank you, man. God bless you. God bless you. All right.

We have two open lines, eight seven seven two zero seven two two seven six cliff from Florida. Hey, how you doing buddy? You're on the air. Hey, what's up man? How you doing? Doing all right. Hanging in there.

What do you got, man? Uh, I agree with you. I agree that, uh, I, well, I think it's just a big sign out. Uh, to see what people were going to do.

And I, I don't even think they anticipated people would be as sheepish as sheepish as people have been. Compliant. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But, uh, yeah, but like you can't, you can't, uh, you can't get somebody out of a position that they got to by the way of emotion.

Like you can't reason somebody out of a position that they came to by the way of emotion. So you know, like from the higher up that you're, if they're looking at it and they're like, dang, all these people did everything that we said based on no stats, like we can show them stats or people can show them stats and show them this is not really deadly or it's just like the flu that you care nothing about, but they'll still do everything we say, you know? You know, so it concerns me for the, for the future. We're going to do it. I'm sorry.

I'm with you. Now, uh, one of my interests is UFOs, another interest is quantum physics. I've been reading some books on quantum physics lately. And another one, just you have these weird interests. Another one is Nazi Germany. And the only reason I'm really interested in that is I heard that, uh, years ago I heard that, um, the Nazis were involved in the occult, uh, a lot, so that got me interested in studying them.

And over the years I've learned other things. And um, so, uh, the propaganda machine of the Nazi social, they were socialist party. A lot of people don't know the Nazis were socialists. They were a socialist party. That's what it was. They were socialists. And, um, so, uh, when they got in absolute control of what they did. But at any rate, so the propaganda machine, when you can control information, you can control the population. And that's what I'm concerned about.

That's how it works in cults too. I can explain that when I get back to the break. Hey folks, we'll be right back after these messages. We'll get back to you, Cliff, after the break.

Get one open line, 877-207-2276. We'll be right back. It's Matt Slick live, taking your calls at 877-207-2276. Here's Matt Slick.

All right. Welcome back to the show. Let's get back to Cliff from Florida. You're on the air again. Welcome back.

Hey, what's up, Matt? Oh, but yeah, that was, that's pretty much all I was saying, but like if people, if the CDC was to come out tomorrow and say, nobody has to wear a mask anymore. A lot of people would just stop wearing their mask. Right. And my question is, why do y'all let the CDC control y'all that much? I'm not a mask wearer.

You'll never be. But the concern for me is that the people's willingness to just be controlled, you know, without thinking the situation for themselves. Right. Well, biblically speaking, this issue of quarantining and shutting down the economy, biblically, it's only the sick who are quarantined and this is not Leviticus 13. You got to guess everybody wants to just remember Leviticus 13, start reading through it and you'll see that it's the sick who are quarantined. Where do you ever find that you have to quarantine the healthy? It doesn't make any sense. And you shut down the economy to do that, which causes far more problems. Anyway, there's, there's a lot of, never in the history of the world have we done that.

That's right. It's, you know, why do people sit down and agree to this? I don't understand it. You know, when it first came out, okay, we didn't know what was going on, but now we have the information. Why is it continuing?

It doesn't need to. So in our country, I know a big part of it was people's hatred for Trump. So because Trump was one way on it, they just had to go another way on. I am, I'm not trying to take it super political, but I know a lot of people that just with it just because Trump was against it, which is unfortunate. But yeah, that's because the left hated Trump so much, it's all you heard.

So people start believing the media and start believing everything. But what's happening is there's a polarization going on in America, conservatives versus liberals. There's a distinction going on and it's, it's not a good thing. Anyway. All right, buddy. Thanks a lot, Cliff. Okay. Hey, how are we going, Matt? You too, brother. God bless.

All right. Let's get to Julia from Raleigh, North Carolina. Julia, welcome. You're on the air. Hey, Matt.

How are you doing and thanks for taking my call. I love your show and I really, everything you said on the show, I feel exactly the same way and my small church thinks and feels the same way. And I just, I don't understand. It seems to me that, you know, God opens the eyes of Christians that we can see these things and what really troubles me deeply is that I've got so many friends who, you know, claim to be Christians and they're in, you know, some of the churches that you talk about that, you know, they're the prosperity ministries and the feel good, just, you know, they don't teach biblical principles in their churches and they're siding with all of this insanity and it troubles me and hurts me for them that they're blinded and can't see. And then I was reading an article today, I'm like you, I've researched, I read everything. I read the left articles from the left, articles from the right, you know, the CDC's website, you know, I form my own conclusion with my limited knowledge and I'm not a scientist or a doctor, but, you know, I form my opinions and from the things I see, you know, what you're saying is spot on and none of this makes any sense. But today, actually on NPR's website, Franklin Graham came out and I probably won't get the exact quote right, but it was something to the effect that Franklin Graham was quoted as saying that if you loved your neighbor and people, then you would get a vaccine and if Jesus were here, he would tell you to get a vaccine. And like the former caller was saying, what concerns me is this vaccine, the RNA technology is very new, we don't have any historical data on it and I've got members of my family that are in biology and working vaccines and, you know, they're recommending that if you're forced to take one, that the J and J vaccine is the old traditional technology, just like the flu vaccine that's been around for decades, but, you know, I don't, to me, as a Christian, you know, God designed us perfectly for our own immune systems to fight this thing and to your point, what you said earlier, you know, a lot of the people that are succumbing to this, you know, have pre-existing conditions or have reached a life expectancy. You don't want anybody to die.

I wish everybody would live forever, but that's just not the reality. And this just troubles me, especially when the evangelical community, somebody like Franklin Graham is stating this publicly, you know, I'd love to hear your thoughts on that. That just, that, that bothered me today. Of course, every day I think I can't read anything new that's going to bother me and it does. Yeah, that's right.

That's right. At 10 o'clock at night I have to quit everything because I don't want to hear any news or discuss anything, you know. No, because I don't sleep well at night.

I get so, I'm so troubled it just, it's heavy. I mean, literally some days I just can't breathe when I'm seeing it, I see through these things and I understand and it, the burden is heavy, but I really would like your thoughts on somebody like Franklin Graham because I think he's doing, you know, the Christian community a great disservice. He's doing a lot of good, but with that statement, if you love, yes, he is doing a lot of good. Yeah, and if you, you know, and I'm proud to say that he's a runner in Christ and that he preaches the gospel at every opportunity. Praise God, we need more men like him, but to say that if you love your neighbor, you'll get a vaccine. Well, it may be true, it may not be true, depending, because we love our neighbor is to put him first or her first, you know, above ourselves.

Philippians 2, one through five talks about this kind of a, kind of a thing, but what does that mean? Well, you know, if, if it means taking a vaccine that's going to alter my DNA and maybe make me more susceptible to something later on, I'm not, I'm not going to do it. Doesn't mean I don't love my neighbor, but if it means taking a vaccine that will stop the spread of a disease, then fine. I don't have a problem with it as long as it's not made with aborted fetal cells and alters DNA. So, you know, there's, it's just, it's not an easy question to answer, but you know, are you thinking what he said and of course, you know, that I've not, all I did was read that NPR headline because it's been a really crazy day at work, but you know, was it maybe taken, you know, out of context and maybe he talked about don't do the RNA vaccine, you know, be cautious of one with, you know, aborted fetal tissue, you know, was there more to that story that I didn't see or read because it, you know, it troubled me because that just totally guilt everybody into, it puts this guilt on, Oh, I'm a terrible Christian if I'm not getting a vaccine and I don't, I don't agree with that. Yeah, I agree with you. You know, I don't plan to take it if I am forced to for various reasons, we'll see what happens, but I don't want to take it and I've, I've already had it. So my body's already done its job and by God's grace, so you know, okay, what do I have to take it for?

Why? Because they want to control you. They want submission by the population. This is what cults do, cults, what they do is control their people and they do it in varying ways. Some are more overt and some are less overt to the more overt or the Jehovah's witnesses.

You have to go to the kingdom hall, you got to be involved with their church. They tell you what the truth is and you have to study and study and study their material that that's an overt mind control. You have lesser kind of that with cults that will teach that they are the restored gospel, the restored truth. You've got to be in their group for the truth and it's always about the truth. And so what happens is when a, a governmental system or a society where the, the information production is controlled by people or a certain group with one mindset, that's how they control a population by saying, well, you have to have this and all the news media outlets are saying the same thing, but you don't know if it's true or not, particularly since the news media doesn't, it doesn't, uh, you know, ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, they're not into the issue of truth. They're into the issue of agenda, politicizing whatever can be done. And this is very obvious.

It's been there for a long time. So I don't watch them. Well, I do. I do my research, but in fact I recommend people get the conservative, what's it? Conservative pro app for your phone. Conservative pro app. It's a great app. I'm not familiar with that one. I looked, I looked that one up because that's, I feel like conservative, conservative news pro app. Yeah.

Yeah. Because I feel like the conservative voice has been, I don't feel like it hasn't been absolutely canceled and there's no real voice to speak truth. And that's why your show is so important to me because I feel like you do your research. In fact, we're, my husband and I are monthly donor to your program and you know, we really, really appreciate what you're doing and being a voice of reason and all of this insanity.

And I wish everybody would listen to your show and I wish people that didn't agree with you would go do research because with an open mind, because if they did, you know, I would pray that their eyes would be open and they would see like, Oh my God. Yeah, you're right. Hey, there's a break. Thank you so much, Matt. All right. Thank you. God bless.

God bless you too. All right. Bye bye. Okay. Goodbye. All right.

Two open lines, 877-207-2276. We'll be right back. It's Matt Slick live, taking a call at 877-207-2276. Here's Matt Slick.

All right. Welcome back to the show everyone. Let's get on the air here with Adam from Oklahoma. Adam, welcome. You're on the air.

Yeah. Hi brother, Matt. Um, first off, I just want to say, um, thank God for your ministry when I first, um, was converted about two or three years ago. Um, I had said in all, a lot of your lessons on a discord server and you definitely pointed me in a more biblical direction. So, um, thank you for that ministry.

And um, second question we had was someone who is going into, I'll put it like this, the long version made short is I have a good job. Um, I've got a family, wife, kids, um, but at the same time, I'm looking at wanting to become more involved directly in ministry. I serve in a great church and what, what advice would you offer someone, um, if they are looking going into ministry, not late in my early thirties, but definitely going into ministry full time. Um, what, what advice would your servant, would you offer to someone more or less looking at that?

Thank you. There are different, uh, levels of advice I give for different, uh, you know, functions, but generically speaking, if you want to go into ministry, your wife has to agree and it's not up to her, but if she's not willing to suffer with you through it, then you can't do it and you shouldn't do it. Ministry, uh, picture this ministry is like, uh, seeing a brother in Christ and you go pick him up, he's hurting and you put your arm around him and you're walking him to a better place and he stabbed you in the back while you have your arm around him and you're walking him to a better place and he continues to jab at you. Now, I'm not saying that's how all believers are. That is something you have to realize you're going to face because Christians love God, but they're sinners and you'll find that there are situations in which in ministry where you have to be the one injured to protect the sheep and you know, I remember there was a church split that happened in San Diego when I was back there and I knew the pastor and people, you know, wanted me on their side or that side and the pastor and I had lunch and he couldn't tell me anything and I'd already been through some stuff.

I'm the next pastor, right? I said, there's probably things you can't tell me, right? He just nodded. I said, there's probably things that if you did tell me, it would defend you, make you look better because it's true, but it would injure somebody else and you can't say anything, right? And he just nodded. I said, I got you. I know exactly what's going on.

I mean, you know, the generic sense, but, uh, this is the kind of thing you've got to be ready for. And what's even worse, oh, that's nothing. That's nothing compared to what God does to your heart. Because I'll tell you, I thought I was pretty spiritual and I found out that I'm a miserable wretch saved by grace, kept by grace, used by grace.

I'm not nearly as good, as humble and wonderful as I thought I was. God has a habit of putting us in situations where our own hearts are exposed and we have to deal with things down deep that are difficult. And sometimes it means humbling yourself before people. Sometimes it means just before your wife and other times it means you and God are having it out.

And of course he's going to win. It's all kinds of stuff like that. The hardest thing I've found about ministry was not the people, but my own sin. You know, it just, you know, for example, pride, you know, I mean, I know a lot of stuff. And so when you have a lot of knowledge, well that can bolster pride. Well, Hey, don't worry.

I'm humble. Really? Yeah. I start thinking that God has his way of smacking me down and putting me back in my place. And this is what you're going to go through over and over again. And then there's the financial problems that usually occur. And then there's the people who are needy and they want your help and you know, you'd rather not, but you've got to, because it's the right thing to do is it. And then late night calls, I mean, ministry is hard work and you got to talk to your wife about this. If she's willing to participate in this with you. Okay.

If she's not, and that can't happen because it'll, it'll wreck your marriage, but if she's willing to then okay. And then you got to pray up, study up and, and I'd keep a journal so that in 20 years you can look back and you can laugh at yourself where you were now and say, boy, was I an ignorant, stupid jerk. I'm glad God decided to use me anyway. You know, that's basically what it is. And you still can't believe why he'd use you. As I heard one preacher say, I'm glad God predestined from the foundation of the world.

Cause if he'd look at me now, he wouldn't pick me, you know? Yep. Amen. Amen. That's right. I appreciate it. Thank you very much.

And God bless you. Does that help? It does. It does. Absolutely.

Now I want to tell you something else. This was called the internal call and the external call. The internal call is you feel it. It's there in your heart, your mind, and what I would do is pray about that with your wife, letting her know about all of this and that you pray about it and that if it's from God, have him increase it. If it's not from God, have him decrease it in your heart. Cause we don't want to have this be a sinful fleshly thing that you're not even aware of is the case.

I'm not saying it is or isn't, you know, it's just how we are sometimes. And so that's called the internal call. The external call is the body of Christ recognizes that gifting and calling of God in you and externally calls you to, to serve.

So then there's more to this. So ministry is hard, but it's worth it. I've never worked harder in my life than in this ministry. And I'm 64.

Most people retire at 65 and I have no plans of retiring. None. I, you know, want to keep going because that's, that's the calling. That's the calling.

You answer it and you walk in it. All right. All right. Thank you, brother. Appreciate it. All right, brother. God bless.

Let me know what happens. Okay. All right. Let's get on the calls with David from Florida. David.

Welcome. You're on the air. Dave.

Dave's not here. Just had a, uh, had a quick question about what you thought was on ultra calls that a lot of the reform circles aren't, aren't quite a fan of, of ultra calls in general. Is there ever a time that it's appropriate and that they work or should we avoid it all together? Uh, I see nothing in the Bible that prevents altar calls. I got saved at an altar call myself.

My wife did too. That doesn't mean that our experiences are what validates something, but, uh, the idea of confessing Christ, we want to do it publicly because Jesus says, if you deny me to men, he'll deny you before God. So there's a public aspect to this. So is it wrong to walk up front to receive Christ? Of course not. Now remember, I'm very reformed.

Okay. I have no problem with altar calls. If I was in a preacher of a church and I felt that, uh, you know, it was timed at that moment in a sermon or whatever it is to preach the gospel and to come forward as a public declaration that you're trusting in Christ, I would have no problem doing that. It's not going forward that saves you.

That's the important thing. It's not the prayer that saves you. It's that appeal to God for a clean conscience. First Peter three 21. That's what the true baptism is. And God caused us to be born again.

First Peter one three. And it's that working confession and he gives us the faith, uh, Philippians one 29. So he's the one who does this. So I don't have any problem with people walking forward to that. You know, I don't know, maybe my reformed brethren would take umbrage with that, but I say, show me the scriptures that says you can't when they might say, well, show me where it says you can. Well, they went forward in public.

Did they not in various forms in the Old Testament and in New Testament, did they not go forward and get baptized, make proclamations, go out and do things? Yes. Well, that's where an altar call is too. So I don't have a problem with them, but just remember. All right. Thank you, Matt. That helps a lot.

Thank you. Okay. And it's not just praying that saves you. It's trust in Christ and what he has done. And that can manifest in different ways.

And one of them can, it can happen while you're doing an altar call. Okay. Okay. Amen. Amen. Thank you. All right, butter. God bless. All right. Let's get to interesting. Okay.

Pearls from Florida. Welcome. You're all right.

Cool. I wanted to ask you about some scripture, a couple verses. What do you think about Genesis 1.6? What do you think about the firmament? Are you a flat earth person?

I'm a child of the most, I don't believe in labels. But I definitely don't believe the earth is a spinning tilted ball without a container and water and gas sticking to it convexially while hurling through a vacuum. I think we'll move along. We're almost out of time anyway. And he didn't answer my question. So I could tell you where this is going.

There's also some notes we know about. So anyway, let's get to this heretic here. There's a heretic guy named Braden from Twin Falls.

You're a complete heretic. I understand. Hey, Braden. Hey, Matt. How are you doing? Doing fine, brother.

Incidentally, everybody. I know Braden. He's very good. All right. Yes. That's right.

You got to know your heretic. That's right. That's right. That's right.

You came out of Mormonism and now you've got a call to a pastorship in Hagerman, right? Yes, sir. Yep. Yep.

Absolutely. Your ministry has been a huge blessing. Oh, well, in spite of me. I was thinking about going off with Joe again. And while you were preaching, just slapped my forehead a lot, you know, and just shook my head.

I would absolutely love that. But you missed it this last Easter. I think I sent you a text with it that I used your Como Man example and we talked a lot about the legal debt being canceled at the cross. So it was good. It was really, really good.

It was a gospel-centric Christology sermon. It was good stuff. Well, good for you, man. I know you love the Lord.

So it's been great to see you. I do. Absolutely.

That's right. Well, I had a quick question for you. I hope I can get it out before the end of your show. Okay, with the Olivet Discourses in Matthew 25 and Matthew 24, do you hold a historicist view, an idealistic view, a futurist or a predatorist view? I'm a partial preterist who's on Millennial. Okay. So that works.

I am an on Millennial as well. Yes. Okay.

Good. So that works within that, within Matthew 25, which is eschatological, and it's typologically talking about the virgins, about the various things, and the judgment to come, and the goats on the left, and things like that. So I'm a partial preterist, and that's within orthodoxy, of course.

Full preterism isn't. I don't know if that answers your question. Yes. No, it does.

I was just curious about how you viewed those chapters. Well, you know. You answered my question.

You know. That's how I answered as well. That's because you're a smart man. That's because you're smart and humble, like me.

Yes, that's right. Very humble. I'm the one who said I'm the most humble. But then I know that you're the most humble, so I know I'm the most humble.

Well, I thought I was until I met you. Anyway, you know. I got corrected. That's right. That's right. All right, brother. All right, man. Yes.

So I appreciate it. No, yeah, I view it very similarly. The reason that I hold it to a preterist view is because of their question. It's after he's leaving the temple, and they're questioning him.

They ask him two different questions about the end of the age, or one of these things come to pass, and when is the consummation or the end of the age. And so there's two different questions being asked there, and so I see it as a partial preterist answer as well. Cool. Yeah. Cool, cool.

That's right, buddy. Okay. All right, man. God bless, and have a good rest of the day. Okay. You too. And hey, come out to Hickerman soon.

I would love to see you soon. Yeah. Well, Joe and I are talking about taking another trip out there, and just hassle on you. So maybe we'll do that. Please do.

That would be good. Well, he needs to hear the gospel, so. Okay. All right, brother. God bless. Okay.

God bless. All right. Bye. Bye. All right.

Yeah, he's a great guy. Let's get to Brian from Richmond, Virginia. Really fast, Brian.

Welcome. Oh, we're out of time. Oh, I'm sorry, Brian.

I didn't even know if we are past time. Hey, Ezekiel. No problem. What'd you call? Call back tomorrow, okay? And we can talk about it. I definitely will. All right, man.

I definitely will. Thank you, man. Okay. Sorry about that. All right.

Hey, folks. By God's grace, we're back on here tomorrow. And I hope you have a great evening. May the word bless you. We'll talk to you tomorrow. God bless. Another program powered by the Truth Network.
