Matt Slick Live

The following program is recorded content created by the Truth Network. I hope you have a good time listening today.

I hope you have a good time listening today. Who is God? How do you know which God is true?

How do you know Christianity is true? Just basics. We like talking about those things. If you want to watch the show, all you have to do is go to karm.org.

You will see the link there to watch. If you are interested, you can sign up for Odyssey. We want people to do that. We are moving away from YouTube because of its intolerance and freedom of speech is more guaranteed. I say things about COVID. I say things about politics. I say things we should and shouldn't be doing. Mainly, the talk is about our Lord, Savior, Jesus Christ. That is what the whole issue is about.

He is our Lord and King. If you want to call 877-207-2276 today, I released an article on which is better, natural immunity or vaccine immunity. I quoted five sources from both sides. That is all. There it is. You can check them out and check the sources on your own.

There is counter information on both sides and supporting information on both sides. What I want to do is give people information so they can make their own decisions. That is it. Quick and slick.

Pretty easy. All right. Let's get on the phones here with, let's see, that would be Will from Des Moines, Iowa.

Will, welcome. You are on the air. How are you doing today, Matt? Oh, I am doing all right. Hanging in there. More hanging than in there, but I am hanging in there. Yeah, I am trying myself here. Yeah.

So what have you got? I had a question. I have been just roaming through the New Testament and ran across Romans 13, 1 through 5. I want to know how that has to retain with the new COVID mandate. What Romans 13 says, for those who don't know, is we are to submit to the governing authorities over us.

And that is correct. We are to do that. We should do that, and if we don't, there are some problems.

However, there is a limit to what we are to submit to. We are not to submit to things in the government that are ungodly. If the government says everybody has to approve of homosexuality, we Christians will say no. If the government says you have to kill your unborn, we say no.

Things like that. Now, when it comes to the COVID thing, constitutionally, the Biden or the branded administration does not have the authority to mandate vaccines for everybody. It is obviously being shut down, that statement, that desire. So, do we have the right to reject that? Absolutely we have the right. I am saying that people should be informed about the vaccines and make their own decision on that. That is what they have to do. I don't care either way.

You do what you have to do. The only other thing that relates to this is I have done a lot of research on COVID and there are lots of evidence about side effects, about adverse reactions. And there are well over 850,000 that have been reported to the CDC. And for the best of my research, I can find from the CDC 13,000 deaths have occurred that are definitely vaccine related. And all vaccines combined up to that point, a couple of weeks ago, when I did my research, all vaccines combined excluding COVID, there was only 9,183 deaths. But COVID has had over 13,000 in just a year and a half. So, do we submit to the government when they want as well?

Me? I am going to say no, I don't want to do this. It is a risk. It is a health risk not to take it.

It is a health risk to take it, in my opinion. So, I have reticence to do it. So, if I don't want to do it, it would be under the guise of two reasons. One, self-defense because I don't trust the vaccines to be that effective and there are too many side effects I am aware of.

And the other one is they use fetal tissue in their development and testing. I don't want to benefit from the killing of the unborn. Okay.

Yeah, I am 100% with you. I went through COVID and my whole family went through it. We had that immunity going on and I don't want to go out and get the vaccination.

Right. And what would you have to say about that new mandate dealing with Los Angeles and COVID and having to get their vaccine? I think the employees of the city are requiring to get the vaccine. Private businesses, from what I understand, have that right to be able to say you need to get vaccinated. I am not against vaccines. When I worked at a hospital, I had to have certain tests done. I submitted them wholeheartedly. But they were tetanus shot and things like that.

No problem. But as far as LA goes, people have the right to refuse and suffer the consequences either way. And they should not be shamed. It is not a pandemic of the unvaccinated. That is not correct. In fact, there is turning out more and more evidence to show that the real problem now is among the vaccinated.

More and more, they are the ones who are ending up in hospitals. So I have a quote here. What I have heard on this new broadcasting is that you cannot even go into shopping or do anything without a proof of being vaccinated.

That to me is Nazi tactics. Do you have your papers? You cannot buy, sell, trade, move, do this. Let us have your papers. This is another reason I am very, very resistant to the whole thing.

It is a socialist, communist, totalitarian kind of rule to say to the citizenry that you cannot buy or sell unless you have the certain papers. The papers in this case are vaccination. And there are reports that show that natural immunity is better, longer lasting than the COVID vaccine. In fact, this is in movevision.com, M-U vision, that is, while it is impossible to know whether that is the case, the public health officials are grappling with the reality of an increasing number of fully vaccinated Americans coming down with COVID-19 infections, getting hospitalized and even dying of coronavirus. Now that is just a little quote I just put in just to wet the appetite. But there is lots of reason to be concerned. So here is the question. This is what I ask people all the time who say I need to get the vaccine. I need to because it is the right thing to do. It is patriotic.

It is all of this stuff, which I do not buy that it is. If the vaccine, if the COVID thing is so bad, would they have to shut down entire economies for it? Which I have a question, because an H1N1 flu virus that came through in 2009, there was a 0.67 percent fatality rate, but here with COVID it is 0.27. Why did not they shut the economy down then when it was worse?

They did not. And you do not hear about these statistics because it does not serve the political end. That is my opinion. If the vaccine is so good and COVID is so bad you have to be careful about it. Everybody has got to wear masks, which are not effective.

I can talk about that if you want. Then why is it that the United States government is opening up the borders and letting thousands and thousands and thousands of illegals come in against the law and not requiring vaccinations and then sending them out into the middle of the night flights in different parts of the country. So why are they requiring us to wear masks when we get vaccinated, yet they open up the border to people who do not wear masks and are not getting vaccinated and then spread them into the country. To me it is not an issue of health, it is an issue of political power. That is my opinion. Do you think they are getting kickbacks, financial incentives in order to have all these vaccinations put on people? I do not know. I do not have any information on that, any documentation, but I do know that Pfizer and Moderna and all these companies that do all this stuff, that their sales are in the billions now. Billions. They have skipped a lot of tests or steps in order to get the vaccine put through and I have an article on that as well.

They skipped all kinds of trials and stuff and pushing it through. Me? I am just this way. I just do not follow the crowd and I want to make sure things are kosher and I have been doing my research now for about 6-8 weeks. A lot of COVID research and I am convinced that we do not need the masks, that they really do not help. Cloth masks are only 3% effective at best. Surgical masks are about 50% effective and N95 masks are 95% effective.

Now that is what you should be wearing if you are going to wear anything. But once you wear a mask and you touch it with your hands on the outside to adjust it, you have now contaminated the outside. And who knows what you put your hands onto and touch because the coronavirus can survive on the surface for a while. You put it to your mask and you are breathing it out towards people and you think you are covered because you have a mask. And yet you could be spreading it inadvertently.

And these are facts. So also they cause anxiety, they cause rashes, dysfunction and oxygenation to the brain. Plus they can be breeding grounds for germs because you breathe moisture into the mask and they stay on for hours and hours. Then it is a breeding ground under a perfectly warm environment for germs to be passed on. You are supposed to change the masks periodically and if you do not they become breeding grounds. And so people will take the masks, they will wear them, they will put them in their pockets, go to the store, put it under something.

Touching shopping carts, adjusting their masks, the whole bit, it is useless to do it. That is my opinion. I have to say that in my opinion. Well, Mike, I understand that opinion is quite valuable. And I have another question. It is definitely off the topic of this, but if you have a little bit of time.

Sure, real fast. Okay, I have children in school and I was worried about this transgender issue. If they are so concerned with competing, why can't they make their own section for competing?

No, no, no, you can't do that. The reason you can't do that, according to the left, is that you are recognizing that there is male and female. Because if they had their own group, then the males and females could be separated, they could have their own little trans group. But that would be admitting there is females and males.

We do not want to do that because then it might, it does not suit the lockstep propaganda stuff that is going on. You have to suffer through the matter of some boy believing that he is a girl going to my dog's locker room and having to get dressed and all that fun stuff. There is a meme going around that guy who is a trans dude and he thinks he is a woman and he is in charge of all kinds of stuff, I forgot his name. And he is a woman, but yet that black woman who won in Virginia, I think it is Virginia, is somehow a white racist, a white supremacist. The world is just screwed up.

That is why we need the truth of God's word. Alright buddy, we got to go buddy. Hey folks, we will be right back after these messages. Please stay tuned.

877-207-2276. We will be right back. Jamal, welcome. You are on the air. Hey, Pastor Dick. I hope you are doing well today, sir. I am doing well, by God's grace.

So what have you got, man? Good, Dito. I have to apologize.

I am asking a repeat question and I am going to try to write it down this time, date time for the show so I can reference back to it so I do not have to ask you a third time for the same question. That is alright. My question is, what would my quick 30 second pitch be to somebody who I would offer to get into apologetics? Like if I say, hey, take apologetics because of X, because of this reason. 1 Peter 3.15. Because what it says there, and I will read it to you, I can quote it, but I am going to read it, and what it says is this. But sanctify Christ as Lord in your heart, always being ready to make a defense. That word defense in the Greek is apologia.

Always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence. That is why, because the Bible tells us to. That is a very good answer and I have that written down.

Now let me ask a follow up question. So it could be a defense to anybody who asks, how would it be different from Bible study? Well, apologetics is a branch of Christian theology that deals with the defense and the establishment of the Christian faith. A Bible study goes through verses like it might go through the book of Ruth, like I am teaching through the book of Ruth on Thursdays. So you go through the book of Ruth and just exegete what it is saying. Now apologetics would be, why is Ruth in scripture? What is the evidence for Ruth?

What is the inspiration of Ruth, etc. Apologetics would deal with how do you know God exists? What is the evidence for righteousness, for good, for bad?

How do you know the Bible is trustworthy? But Bible studies, you just study the Bible. People already believe these things and so generally, generally, apologetics is for the unbeliever. But also for the believer, for the defense of and the establishment of the Christian faith. So what I am doing now with you is apologetics, you know, giving a reason. And you do that in the Bible as well.

So all apologetics involves Bible study and all Bible study involves some apologetics. Okay, very good answer. That was very thorough and very informative. I appreciate it. So would you say it was quick and slick?

I would say it was quick and slick, yes, I would. All right. Well hey, you know, that works. All right, man. Thanks a lot, Javel.

You too, God bless. All right, quick and slick. For those of you who might be new, my last name is Slick. It's not a radio name, it's my real name.

So you listen to Matt Slick live and it works great for radio, doesn't it? Let's get to Dionne from Salt Lake City. Dionne, welcome. You're on the air.

Oh, thank you. I'm going to jump back just a minute and talk about your communism, but I want you to answer a question on the Bible for me. But it's not what you believe, you believe in the truth. So Khrushchev wrote September 9, 1959, your children's children will live under communism. You Americans are so gullible. No, you won't accept communism upright, but we will keep feeding you small doses of socialism until you finally wake up and find you already have communism. We will not have to fight you. We will so weaken your economy until you will fall like overripe fruit into our hands.

Democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give it to those who would not. That's where our country is headed and I don't know why we don't have more people defending our country. We just sit here and watch the country be taken inch by inch, our economy, everything.

I don't understand. Where is our country? Why don't we rebel? Oh, I like you.

I'll tell you what I think. I think it's because the men have been gutted and castrated and men are afraid to stand up now. Masculinity has been under attack.

Not to knock women, but it's not the women, generally speaking, who push revolutions, who push back against unrighteousness. It's men who do this. Men go to war. Men stand up for truth. Men do this. I'm not advocating war here.

I'm just saying this is what we need. We need masculine strength. They tried to ruin the sense of masculinity. All this started back in 1960 with women's lib. I think it was the worst thing that happened to our country.

It's bad. Because I think men deserve that. But anyway, enough on that.

I agree with you 100%. I'm in a small Bible group and we're studying Philippians and the second chapter is all about humility. People in the church, where I'm better than you, I know more than you, you do it this way, blah, blah, blah. And so he's trying to teach these people to be unified. And he uses Jesus, setting aside his godship and took on a servant. No, no, no, it's not accurate.

That's not accurate. He did not set aside his divinity. Just so you know. Oh, I know, I know.

He set aside his, yeah. I understand that. But in verse 2 or 3, the word I'm looking at is better. And it says, don't be selfish. Don't try to impress others. Be humble.

Think of others as better than yourself. That word better has become a little bit of a problem. What does that really mean? What does that Greek word really mean? One of my versions says more important. The Greek word is huperico.

Not from memory, I'm reading it. That's the Greek stuff. And it means to hold over, to extend over something, to be over prominent, extend over generally and particularly with the genitive of person, the native of man, forget all that stuff. Supereminence, equivalent in meaning to be superior in rank and dignity, things like that. So huper means above, greater than, that kind of stuff.

The hypersonic flight is even faster. So that's what's going on. Yeah. Well, that's the worst thing I think that our people have is trying to be right.

And they'll argue to their enemies because they just won't listen to the other person. I got to be right. I got to be right.

You know, I just think it's horrible. I'm really trying to learn that lesson because I kind of am a know-it-all. And I'm trying to be more humble. Yeah, me too. Absolutely.

You're right. We'll be good to go. There's a break, okay? Dion, we're good to go.

There's a break. So call back later, okay? We'll talk some more about it. All right. God bless.

That was Dion from Salt Lake City. Three open lines, 877-207-2276. We'll be right back. Okay, welcome to the show.

Or welcome back, I should say. Just want to give a quick reminder that we're moving away from YouTube and going to Odyssey. And all you've got to do is go to odyssey.com, O-D-Y-S-E-E dot com, and register there.

And not a big deal. And then you can just type in the word CARM, C-A-R-M, and you can follow us. And that's the way we ask.

Real easy. Odyssey, O-D-Y-S-E-E dot com. Let's get to Darlene from Virginia. Darlene, welcome. You're on the air. Hi, how are you doing this evening?

I'm doing fine, by God's grace. Thank you. So what do you got? Amen. Hey, listen, I just want to clarify something.

I'm a nurse practitioner and I work in the field of occupational environmental health. Okay. And I just wanted to clarify something that you said about the mask, okay? Sure.

Because some people think that the tighter the fit, the better the protection. But in your investigation, if you would look at Cochrane, D-O-C-H-R-A-N-E, review of literature. Wait a minute, let me spell that out.

Where's that again? It's Cochrane, D-O-C-H-R-A-N-E, and it is like, Cochrane review of literature. Cochrane review of literature. Okay.

I'll check it out. Review of literature. Okay. And then go and then do a search on there for use of masks in the flow of respiratory virus. And you will find 67 studies from 2009, including the H1N1 virus, all the way up to 2016. And there's little to no evidence that wearing a face mask does anything to slow the spread of a virus or protect you. What I'm finding on doing pulmonary function tests on people to clear them to wear a respirator, people that wear the mask on a regular basis, their lung function is diminishing up to 20%. Whoa. And that's from breathing in your own CO2, and your heart rate goes up, your blood pressure goes up because your body's trying to defend itself from the increased CO2 levels in the bloodstream.

So an N95 mask, really to be able to wear that in the industrial and occupational environment, you have to have a pulmonary function test with a forced vital capacity and an SEV1 of at least 70% or above, or you cannot wear a respirator. Wow. Okay, I got a question for you.

Okay, go ahead. Okay, my wife had open heart surgery, and so one of the things they had to do was give her respiratory, that little thing you suck air through when the valve goes up. Yeah, yeah. Okay, so I can make it go to the top, but she can't, of course. Well, women have lower respiratory capacity than male because they're just not as big and as muscular and stuff like that. So in light of that, does that mean then that women would have a rougher time with wearing a mask, or is it proportionally okay or what? Absolutely.

No, no. Women do have a harder time breathing through the mask, and I mean, when you go the next time you go out to the store and you watch these little people walk around with these masks on, and the ones that, the KN95, you know, the ones that come over from China and they're really plastered to their face, they're struggling to walk because they just can't breathe. Well, you know. And it is not good.

My research has shown that with mask wearing, and I've got the documentation on my website, been doing a lot of research on it for months, skin problems, sinusitis, headaches, fatigue, increase in stress hormones, negative impact on immune resilience, face masks prevent the mirroring of facial expressions, potentially leads to significant increase in social psychological stress, behavioral problems, weakened immune system, anxiety and depression. That's just from one article that says. That's absolutely correct. It does little to nothing. You want to know what really does slow the spread of a virus? What?

You ready? Wash your hands. Okay. Soap and water. And just FYI, and this is no joke.

I mean it. People just don't know. But the use of the alcohol-based hand sanitizers, if your hands are not wet for one minute, you're not doing a darn thing. You have to wash your hands.

Really? With alcohol-based ones? You know, if you're just hand sanitizer and you rub your hands together, right? Your hands have to be wet for one minute to kill the coronavirus.

Oh, wow. One minute. Now who does that, right? Not me. And with Lysol?

Me either. Lysol, four minutes. The surface has to be wet for four minutes with the use of Lysol. Bleach? Probably pretty quickly, but nobody wants to advocate, including myself, you know, washing your hands with bleach. Well, see, I believe in strengthening your immune system, so I go to the grocery store, touch everything I can, come home, touch everything I can, start coughing out loud to see what my wife does.

And she usually Frisbees me dinner from about 20 feet away after that, but it's worth it to me. I'll tell you. Well, listen, Tom, if you think about it, you're right. I need that documentation. I'm looking at it, but I'm not sure I can find it. Could you actually find me the link, if it's not too hard, and then just email it to me at info at karm.org? I can. Tell me what's your email again?

Info, like information, just info at karm, C-A-R-M dot O-R-G, karm.org. Okay. Have you ever been to the website? I will send it to you.

I don't think so, but I've been listening to you for some time. Check it out. I'll be happy to send you that, and I'll be happy to send you just FYI, and here's another tidbit. Yes.

If your vitamin D3 levels are up around 50, and you're doing 30 to 40 milligrams of zinc a day, a virus can't live in your body. You got to write that out. If I get documentation... I'll send you a copy of it. Okay. See, because I want it, I'll put it up there.

Because I'm a theologian, I'm not a trained doctor, you know, so I have to put a disclaimer on everything. But I point as much as I can in my COVID research to documentation from official sources. And one of the things I found out... Well, this comes from the front line. That's what I want. This comes from the front line.

Front line doctors. Yes, sir. Oh, yeah. I need it. I'll send it to you. I'll send you what I have. I'm coveting your information.

You see what you're doing to me now? Making me covet. No, don't covet it.

Just pass it on because people really need to know. And like you said, women don't need to be the fighters. Men do. And we all need to stand up and we need to fight against this tyranny. That's what we need to do. It is tyranny. And as a previous caller read from Khrushchev, it is true. They are destroying us and the left is helping them.

And the branded administration is assisting in the downfall of our country. It is. It is. Yes, it is. But I will tell you this.

And I didn't make this up. Amir Zarafati. I don't know if you know who he is or not, but he is a messianic Jew who lives in the Golan Heights of Israel. And he comes over and visits with Jack Hibbs in California. And I heard him say quite a while ago, but he said, he said, listen, the devil has been really smart with this. He said the whole world now has been desensitized to putting forth your hand or your forehead to having your temperature taken. Now where's the mark of the beast? And I said, oh my goodness. And then he said, I don't think the vaccine is the mark of the beast.

However, it has again desensitized the whole world into listening to the voice of authority tell you, you have to take something. I like that. And I was blown away by that. I'm writing this down and you may hear me repeat stuff like that.

It's brutal. Yes. So I've been doing research for 41 years and I know what cult mentality is and control and control markers. In my opinion, masks are control markers.

We don't need them. And we are being conditioned. I can tell you eschatological things what to watch out for, but I'll tell you, it's going to get worse. It is going to get worse. Yes, it is.

It is. And you know how the devil has used it to desensitize the world. I believe truly, truly in my heart of hearts that the Lord is using it to separate the wheat from the chaff. And I mean, I just asked myself, I asked my patients, I asked my family members, are you standing on faith or are you standing on fear?

Are you following God or are you going to follow the government? You need to be my neighbor. Yeah. Love it. Love it. I will send you to stuff on email. I will.

All right, Darlene. God bless. Please do.

I'll be checking. You have a great one. God bless you, sir. You too. God bless. All right. Hey folks, that was a great call.

I love that. Give me a call. 877-207-2276. We'll be right back.

All right. Welcome back to the show, the last segment. We have two open lines.

877-207-2276. Let's get to Ken from Toledo, Ohio. Ken, welcome. You're on the air. How are you doing, sir? By God's grace, doing quite well.

So where are you going? Absolutely. Well, we're on the same page and I just thought maybe it would be a good thing to remember or to mention that all we really need is Psalms 91. God's got our back. We don't need the vaccine.

And I'm okay with not wearing a mask and all that good stuff. And I've actually seen a one world government coming for about 25 years. I read a book called Say No to New World Order by Gary Allen. He was a Christian. He finished the book on his deathbed and he told how the government can't just come out and dictate whatever they want.

So what they have to do is create problems so they can come up with a solution and it's called management by crisis. And actually, before Obama got elected the second time, I lived in Savania, Ohio, and they passed out these movies called The Dreams of My Real Father. And Obama was being interviewed by a news lady and she asked him a question and he said, yes, that's my Muslim religion. And she goes, don't you mean your Christian religion? And he goes, oh yeah, that's what I meant to say, my Christian religion. Because you're allowed to lie for Allah. And then before he was elected the second time, he had us signed on to the United Nations.

He predicted the virus and Joe Biden's following in his footsteps. But you know what the best thing is? God's still on the throne and even the wicked are servants of God.

They just don't know it. God said he saved the evil for the last days. And so all we really need is a bag of popcorn and we can sit back and watch the show. But Jesus did also say, prepare and run to the hills. And what he's meaning by that is there's a time to flee, there's a time to be aware and take action.

Well, he was talking to Israel at that point. Yes, but also, just so you know, the Christians also took that and in the 60s and 70s of the first century, they were fleeing just based on that. And then it's also in what's called partial preterism, the view is that it'll also be the case later on. But I'm with you and I'm checking this book out to say no to the New World Order. It's only in paperback.

I do everything on Kindle, but maybe I'll order it anyway and check it out. There's also a book called In Route to Global Occupation. I read that like 30 years ago and that one was kind of scary.

So there's some stuff in there. Well, what do you think about Israel when they became a nation in 1948? The Bible says all prophecy will be fulfilled before that generation passes away and that was like 72, 73 years ago. And I was talking to a gentleman earlier today and he said a generation is actually 100 years.

Is that true? Well, generation, the way it could be there, generally it's understood to be 40 and it could also be 120 because that's how many days is the limit. And so when it says this generation will not pass away, does it mean that those who are born, say May 14th, 1948 when Israel became a nation, the day after that they were born, that's part of that generation.

If that person lives to be 100 years old, it would be 2048. So does it mean that? This is the question.

We don't have an exact answer. But I do know that the Six Day War was started when a guy, I forgot who, the name of him, he was going to go through a certain gate that has been sealed. And the legend around the gate, it's in Israel, says that the next one who goes through it will be the Messiah. And he said I'm going to break it down and go through it and the Six Day War started right there. And there are stories about the Six Day War. One of the ones I heard that just blew me away, two Israeli soldiers were in a tank and they were about out of fuel, they were out of water, their radio wasn't working, they were looking for the enemy to surrender to because that's how far behind enemy lines they were. And they were going to surrender because at least they could survive even if they weren't well treated but they have water and food. And they were looking for the enemy to survive and when they came up over a hill, like 300 of the enemy Arabs were all on their knees with their hands behind their heads and their weapons piled in a pile. And they came over the hill and they looked, they couldn't believe what they were seeing, they drove the tank over to some machinery and adjusted the frequency for the radios there and called in for reinforcements on the enemy's machinery and the enemy wouldn't do anything. They just stayed there with their hands behind their heads. And then the Israelis came and captured them all and when they interviewed them and asked why, they said because we heard the army coming up over the hill and it was so big, the sound of it was so huge that we knew we could not survive it so we surrendered before it even got here. It was one attack.

Stuff like that happens. Well I heard that America is one of the few places where Christians aren't getting their heads chopped off. That's right.

And Britain and Australia but yes, more Christians died for the faith in the 1900s than all of history combined. Well what do you think about when Jesus said if you got two coats they'll want to buy a sword? I'm pretty sure he wouldn't want you taking a knife to a gunfight, right? Nothing wrong with our second amendment? That's right.

That's Luke 22-36 and the sword at that time. And they're trying to take our guns away. And they're trying to take our guns away. We have the right of self-defense but not the right of vengeance.

And I wrote an article about this and it's being distributed all over Nigeria right now. That they have the right there to defend themselves against the tyranny of the Muslims. They're not extremists, they're true Muslims. Because that's what Islam teaches us. Well I heard in a sermon probably 15-20 years ago, back then if you take Chicago, LA and New York out of America we would only be at 3% of the gun violence in the entire world.

Absolutely. And that's where the strictest gun laws are all run by Democrats. And where the strictest gun laws are is where the highest crime rate is. And Hitler basically said before you can take over a nation you have to disarm it. Disarm it and you need the children. And so that's why they started the propaganda machine in order to get the children so they could have brown shirts that turn into people. Oh yeah, they're brainwashing them in school.

They're not teaching them how to think, they're teaching them what to think. That's exactly correct. Oh yeah. I got a question for you. We got callers, we got a kick-off.

Can you call back tomorrow though? I got a real quick question for you. I got a sticker on the back of my truck I got from church that said, Mohammed is dead and Jesus is alive. And today was the first day I ever had somebody confront me about it and basically said it was wrong for me to knock somebody else's religion. And I just told the guy Jesus loves him, you know, and I know I've done my homework. He was knocking you for your religion. Yeah, he was knocking you for your religion. Is there anything wrong with me having that on the back of my truck that Mohammed is dead and Jesus is alive? No, Jesus rose from the dead, he was crucified even though surah 4, 157 says he was not crucified.

Islam is a false religion, Mohammed was a false prophet. Put it on your bumper and stand for the truth, okay? Right. Yes sir. Okay, we're out of time, let's go.

John from Winston-Salem, North Carolina. John, welcome, you're on the air. Hey, thank you for taking my calls. You have some pretty strong calls, Colin. Oh no.

I'm just a weakling. I just wanted a couple of questions. My first one is something about the first temperatures, temperature one.

I think that's the passage. What about women first? My second question is... Let's do the one at a time.

Let's do one at a time. What's your question about the women preachers' teachers? Right, it says in the Bible that they're not supposed to be preaching, so I wanted to know what you thought about that. Yeah, do not allow a woman to teach or exercise authority over a man but remain quiet for Adam was first created. And yeah, I speak on this frequently, that women are not to be pastors and elders. I can go to those verses, 1 Timothy 5.17, I can go to Titus 1.5-7 and 1 Timothy 3, roughly 3-8 and cross-reference it with 1 Timothy 3.15. And the issues here are that women are not to be pastors and teachers and elders over men in the church context. And the fact that they are is just another example of apostasy in the Christian church. If you go to a church that has a woman pastor and elder, and I know there are people listening to me, I know they're out there in Carolinas and stuff like that listening to me right now, if you go to a church that has a woman pastor and elder, you need to stop and you need to submit to the word of God, as does that elder or that woman, because it's unbiblical and I would be glad, love to, come on out there and have a public debate, discussion on it.

Just pick the time, pick a church, I'll fly out and we'll have a discussion and I will show you why it's wrong for a woman to be a pastor and an elder and what the deleterious side effects or ramifications are of it, particularly for men. Okay, what's your next question? My next question is, thank you for that, I've been fighting with that, but my next question is, if the COVID shot that the government is making people take is supposed to save our life, then why are they offering money to get people to take the shot? And then on top of that, when I went to take my shot, because I worked in the healthcare field, so I had to take the shot to keep my job, so when I went to take the shot, they wanted to charge my insurance card, they wanted to charge my insurance, so my question to you is, how is it free and why are they lying on television telling everybody that it's free when they charge my insurance?

Good question. There's inconsistencies all over the place. If COVID is so dangerous we've got to be vaccinated, why are they opening the border and letting illegals come in all over the place non-vaccinated? We're being conned, we're being conned by our government and the leftist news media. Someone's got to say it, and I'm saying it, we're being conned. We've got to stand up. Right in front of our eyes. Right in front of our eyes, and there's a lot of people, they're jackboots, that's what the Nazis wore, they're jackboots.

It's just a phrase that means they walk in lockstep with the status quo without real serious independent thinking and they do what they're told and go where they're told. Okay. I really appreciate that. Thank you, sir. I really appreciate it. Thank you for having me. Alright, God bless. Let's get to Larry from Dayton, Ohio. Larry, welcome, you're on the air. Thank you.

Just a couple quick questions. In the Bible, I know Jesus did a lot of teaching in parables. What is the teaching there about if your eye tends you to sin or your hand cut it off or pluck it out, what is this teaching in regards, how does that actually mean to us? It's hyperbole, it's exaggeration. What he's doing is demonstrating that sin is so bad that we should have nothing to do with it.

It's better to be maimed than to go into sin and enter into hell. Pluck it out. But he's not saying actually pluck it out. He's saying this is hyperbole. Hyperbole.

Another question then, quickly. What does it mean when they say things that are bound on earth are bound in heaven or loosed on earth, loosed in heaven? John 20, 23. And the Catholics use it a lot.

We'll have to call back tomorrow about this because we're almost out of time. But it has to do with the authority of the Christian to be able to proclaim what has already been bound. Because it's in the perfect, I think it's perfect participle, which means it's a past action that's completed with an ongoing action in the present. And it's not completed, that's pluperfect. The perfect tense, past action that's occurring in the past and is continuing in the present.

And so that the sins that you have forgiven have been forgiven already. That's what's going on. Call back tomorrow.

It goes with the 3X bar slope, okay? Thank you much. Sorry about that. And sorry about that, Marie from Richmond, Virginia.

Portals in your room. Call back tomorrow. We've got to talk about that. Alright everybody, sorry about that.

We are out of time. The Lord bless you. I hope you enjoyed the show today. It was an interesting one. And by God's grace, we're back on here tomorrow and we'll talk to you then.
