Why We Must Let Our Light Shine and Gosnell's House of Horrors

You know I'm hearing Christian leaders say it's over. We've lost the culture war time to retreat. I thought Jesus said don't put your light under a bushel stage for the line of fire with your host activist all the international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution Michael Brown is the director of the coalition of conscience and resident of fire school of ministry get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH. That's 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown welcome welcome to the line of fire. This is Michael Brown. I am delighted with you today, they might my heart has been burning over some issues have been writing about them talking about them. I want to interact with you about them is it.

Is it time for us to say, okay face the inevitable, the Donald Trump election will probably help forestall the attack on religious liberty in forestall some of the other things that were happening in terms of aggressive pro-abortion direction of things like that but it's just as temporary. We know where things are going. We know that things are all going downhill when it comes to the the cultural issues and what we just need to do is accept that fact. Quit fighting quit making the effort quit striving to bring about change because the change is never going to happen. The change is not going to happen. So let's just work on getting our house noticed his work on training our children teaching and preaching in your within our own conclaves with their own communities and let's sort of the culture wars is that the way to go on increasing number of Christians seem to be saying that in and to me it's completely outrageous.

I want to address that with you.

866-348-7884. Do you believe that the decline of America and of the church in America's inevitable do you believe that there's only one way were going from here that's worse and worse and worse. Lower and lower and lower spiritual, moral compromise cultural collapse. That's the way it's going, it's inevitable.

There's nothing we can do to stem the tide.

Do you believe that our main calling is to get our own house in order, because we'll be out here any moment or or do you feel to the contrary that that we haven't barely been engaged yet and the last thing we should be thinking about in the last thing we should be talking about a some kind of exit strategy tell you why that's on my mind all the more these days actually written a couple of articles directly addressing those issues. You can read them@thelineoffire.org and okay how about this. How about this, the latest in what you call trance sanity which, by which I mean transgender activism having a negative impact on society in New Zealand. There's a members weightlifter now identifies as a woman just competed in a competition anyone nobody win course there calling him. She but he setting world records.

He setting world records.

Is it any wonder that a male weightlifter and identifies as female is setting records. Is it any wonder that a man stronger than a woman and look I don't care what hormones he's honor how long he's been on and they're still going to be differences in a male body and a female body and especially if this man has been a successful male weightlifter.

I bet he didn't beat the man all the time speeding the women all the time and now setting world right what a mockery to all the women that sacrificed and worked hard to get where they are to not have a man identifies his woman come along and set the records this friends is another reason that we raise our voices. It's just not right. It's just not fair. All right, barely got started here 866-34-TRUTH number by Expo light a fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown. Your voice is more cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown.

Maybe. Maybe you hold to an end times mentality that says things or only get worse. We can tell the coming of Jesus is near things are only going to get worse so just accepted things are only going down so accepted right and and is no reason to try to be pro-life is no reason to stand for family morality is no reason to get engaged because culture wars. This can be on steady decline. Things are going to get worse before Jesus returns in them right here. What first question for you is, is this what if people felt that way. 1900 years ago what people felt that way 300 years ago what people felt that way hundred years ago society was completely collapsed whenever Christian witness.

There was with the been completely obliterated. The early church would not of stood against infanticide of the church in the 17 1800s with out-of-state against slavery. The church in the 60s without stood against segregation and honor on it goes in country after country after country where the church has made an impact with the church is made a difference with the church is stood up against the prevailing sinful culture. We all just as well forget it.

We capitulate, we throw in the towel.

After all, things are only going to get worse, what if that was the mentality we would we would be in complete and total spiritual darkness. Who knows where the world would be. Let's go further.

How do you know that Jesus is about to come you so you tell me was to sit back I asked the question, how do you know Jesus is about to call you see the signs here.

That's was told when I got saved 45+ years ago I a 16 years old when I came to faith.

Her oldest granddaughter, 16 is a long time.

My got saved what your mom and dad were were livened and it was 16 years old in their marriage and family, kids and grandkids all assault distant future future distant future. Now looking back at 41 years of marriage, and she still hasn't returned my same, but if the church had this attitude will rally here no sense to extend that is part of the problem, friends part of the problem is we've had this mentality for years and it's been destructive already here. Things really getting worse and you can tell me you are so sure of your interpretation of Scripture that guaranteed things going in it worse and worse before Jesus returns. You tell me the same. A great harvest of souls bugging me a great harvest of souls without some type of change could be a great harvest of souls without some type of impact on the society can your him saying friends.

Do you understand the point that I am making so in short I do not see scripturally anything that says guaranteed before Jesus comes. Everything is going down. This can be complete moral and cultural collapse. I see great conflict I see great darkness.

I also see great light someone number two. Number two is this I can't date set.

I can tell you Jesus is coming in three years when 10 years and six months rent 20 years.

All I know is today today is in my hands today is in your hands and without further notice, we got tomorrow and the day after, but we don't know that we know we have today. What are we supposed to do today when your kid comes home from school and is confronted with some evolutionary teaching that denies God what you say hey everything is going to pot around the server.

In some places literally that everything's going down just that one you can do about when your kid comes home from school says wow this is really interesting with your teaching us and sex ed the kids 12 years old and the learning about all kinds of sexual action every blade to relate to what why this is a ton of stuff exactly happened in schools. If you had given him elementary schools about condoms, what elementary school students with condoms. Well, nothing new about a brother it's all about what kind of nonsense is that who lives like that who thinks like that know you call it that school to get involved in you meet Lisa down your kids.

You have a healthy discussion with them and point them in the right direction. I get even more involved and wants to help shepherd them through these times and if you don't have resources and don't how to respond to some of the junk you get hit with the get online your yesterday pastorally you find out where the resources are to help and if you're pastoring you know all these people come from marital counseling because their marriage is falling apart, you say well it's all going downhill.

It's only getting worse from here. No, meet with couples you minister to them to help them. You call for more prayer and whether sin and repentance with his herd for healing who just as well as all going to use all get worse from here to do that, no, no Dr. bid you go to the doctor. Dr. says June hey, unless you change your diet lifestyle. You're very sick. You can even die prematurely. You can lose years of world's all good. Worse, no, you look in the mirror and say I wake up I wake up I II got go with it. This can be deadly.

This could be fatal.

So as a church that's what we have to do on a national level yellow societal trends are going the stretch.

Why why are they going in a particular direction. What's the primary reason undergoing a particular direction. I would say it's because the failure of the church. I would say things are going a particular direction because the church is failing to take a stand. I would say things going particular direction because the church is failing to do what's right, I would say that things are deteriorating because the church is been compromised. So here you got a sports event right it's halftime and your team has played miserably.

It's it's a football game and they're losing 21 to nothing at halftime. Does the coach said the team both setting play the second half, so we can get worse from here. I'm an F roll down 21 nothing and ending of nobody's even engage her like a playmaker sleepwalking. Now the culturally synthesis of what kind of team are you your disgrace.

You can do better than this. You far better mom bring to win this game and I need you and I need you and I need you and I me I need every one of you totally engaged. That's what the coach will do so. Why is it when the church is barely been engaged. We have been sleepwalking our way through society so many for so many years. Now societies is is collapsing. It's only ways before our eyes will I guess we just retreat what what, that's the wrong logic that's the opposite of the way that we should be thinking 866-34-TRUTH 7884. That's why I wrote a couple of articles one called why I have mixed feelings about Roger Harris Benedict option, which is a more about in a moment, and then another Christian should not surrender the fight for culture or others would have it up as don't hide your life under a basket.

Don't hide your life under Hydra light under a basket like this is what Jesus said is not. These are the words of our Savior, listen to this.

You are the light of the world city set on a hill cannot be hidden, nor do people light a lamp and put under basket but understand, it gives light to all in the house in the same way, let your light shine before others that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.

Let your light shine. The only way you can let your light shine is if you're around darkness if if you are out in the middle of the field at noon with the sun directly over your head, beating down radiantly and you shine a flashlight, a Harley to see Helena see you stand the same field at midnight shine as fast flashlight. It will illuminate your path and the path of others with you light, is meant to shine in darkness, light is not meant to be hidden under a basket light is not meant to shine when it's perfectly light around you and there is no need for the life we are the light of the world because the world is and darkness friends as long as we are on the radio as long as I'm writing teaching and preaching as long as I have breath get encourage you and get encourage me. Let your light shine. Let our light shine.

Let us rise and shine rather than go down and retreat and say just time to hunker down general laws order will the world collapses around us who then preach the dying and hurting unless were to tell you little bit more about this Benedict option on the other side of the break. Be sure you check out a very special resource offer tremendous discount on the website this week. Some of our best downloadable teaching that will really stir your heart. Check it out as a light a fire, that horrible director of the light a fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown back friends to the line of fire each 66487884 before we go any further, let them eat, let me ask you this question. Do you think when I talk about being a voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution when I am introduced as such on the broadcast that that's just some catchy little thing that we say that that's what it gives catchy little saying we have and your voice of moral, cultural, spiritual revolution or do you think we need to think that we really believe there needs to be a gospel based moral and cultural revolution you think that we we really believe that there needs to be radical, gospel based change.

You think that we we really believe that that things are dire and things are in need of dramatic upheaval, or I hope you know the answer to that we don't do this just for what can I say for attention for hype for catchy slogan is a ministry model or some that we do it from the heart.

I live and breathe this is been with us and worked with us in ministry.

Those who been trained in the school we live and breathe this together from the heart from the depths of our heart. So I I felt this way for many many years as no surprise to me. The things in the state. You know the first time I could find in writing Rice out with the alarm about same-sex quote marriage first time I can find in writing Rice. Some of the alarm about the no one 1989 of 62 House 34th 1989. It was on my radar.

Even then, what's the point. The point is, of course, we need radical change.

Of course, things are dire, but there is a gospel based solution. I quote theologian Douglas Wilson in my latest article and he said I am against surrendering in any case, but I'm really against surrendering before the battle was really joined the really against surrendering be before we even really thrown ourselves into the battle again. If the problem is that we haven't been engaged. How was the solution complete lack of engagement know the solution is wake up and get engaged. 866-34-TRUTH 784 soap Rod Dreher reached out to him a couple times or interaction thus far without success may will get on the I'm sure he's busy with interviews and things like that. He is a well-known conservative journalist he is. I believe Eastern Orthodox in his Christian affiliation now is written a book that is instantly on top of some of the charts the Benedict option strategy for Christians in a post-Christian nation and on the one hand it. I love the way that he sounds the alarm. I love the way that he see announces that the dire state dire straits in which we find ourselves. I mean it's it's a book that starts off making clear how bad things are.

I fully affirm that a book I have coming out later this year with Thomas Nelson called Sebi sick America starts off with one of these chapters that you read and think all my all my justice sees me the introduction to the book I paint a picture of where America is at just I asked God to give me the grace to do it in one short chapter. It's one of these things you'll you'll hear you read it you think all my God, what happened to America and yet the books full of hope.

I see this as our greatest opportunity so the Benedict option is basically saying face the fact that we the Internet with the collapse of Christian civilization in America is inevitable and what we have to do is basically withdraw from the fray withdraw for the political battles withdraw from the culture wars reckoned as we lost them and just build up her own spiritual communities get stronger and and then the storm passes it to be hundreds of years from that you know and then we kind of you will reengage sure you subdue, with the monks did and he says this. There are people alive today who may lead to slip to see the effective death of Christianity within our civilization by God's mercy.

The faith may continue to flourish in the global South in China, but barring a dramatic reversal of current trends all but disappear entirely from Europe and North America. This may not be the end of the world, but it is the end of the world. This end of a world and only the willfully blind to deny it for long time. We have downplayed or ignored the size of the folders are upon us. Were not ready yet the floodwaters are upon us and are ready with plenty of us have been shouting out the signs for decades now and when did Francis Schaeffer begin warning Chuck Colson about America being a post-Christian society went to David Wilkerson begin warning about his fierce judgment on America time.

Decades ago, you told late 70s early 80s probably others before that I have urgent warnings from the 60s. In the midst of the counterculture revolution as to what was happening. Kurt continues the strong cousin together for decades, but most of us believe believers have operated under the illusion that they would blow over the breakdown of the natural family. The loss of traditional moral values and the fragmenting of communities. We were trouble about these developments but believe that they are reversible and it reflect anything fundamentally wrong with our approach to faith religious leaders told us that strengthening the levees of long politics would keep the flood of secularism a day since what had was there's nothing here that can't be fixed by continuing to do it.

Christians have been doing for decades, especially voting for Republicans. Amen to much of that except everybody I know the leaders I work with for years. Our emphasis is not been in politics. Emphasis is not been with long culture, our emphasis has been on the church needs to repent and get right. And if we do, we can see change come around us, he said, so I write from my perspective, the problem remains the same now is that it's just become more acute. That also means that the solution remains the same. It's just more desperately needed and he says nobody but the most elite of the old-school religious right believes that this cultural revolution could be turned back the way it cannot be stopped only written no no no no no no, there can be a radical change that can be radical outpouring there could be there could be a greater awakening that we've ever seen an hour country right. I have not gotten to the phones at all. As soon as we come back I'm going to go straight to the phones but let me encourage you.

Let me stand by you and encourage you and strengthen you and bless you. Okay, let let me let me encourage you that God can use you to bring about change and wouldn't you be encouraged if you so change come within your own family. We should be encouraged if you so change come in your local church. Would you be encouraged if you so change come to one person that you know has been going in the wrong direction to the Gospels, turned around, while the one person can be turned around.

Why not to 110. When 101 out of thousand if one person can be turned around when a family fun family can be turned around when I do community for community can be turned around when I County one on the stage.

What one nomination were talking about Almighty God, go to the line of fire.org click on my latest articles to read them. You'll be encouraged will be strengthened will be challenged to be equipped we are here to help you and when you're there, be sure to sign up for my newsletter don't leave the website without signing up for this, it will be right back going straight to your calls and become best. It's the line of fire with your host activist, author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution get into the line of fire now by calling 6643 here again is Dr. Michael Brown. I just don't understand his throne. The tell mentality. I don't relate to 866-34-TRUTH will start in Hopewell, Virginia Lewis welcome to want to fire Lewis.

You're on the air.

I think you're right own what you but God's word.

My people don't blame it on the wall of my people are called by my name will humble themselves and pray that Berkeley so I think we need to pray for genuine revival, but also there is a song that we spent a lot in the church call stand up, stand up for Jesus.

And I think that people today have been laying down and doing nothing and if we can get people to stand up and actively do what you're saying and and and people aware and and tell the young to do something rather than just give up what you said while ago about what would've happened if this what would have let you your you exactly right. There would be no world. If all the church just quit right in the beginning persecution. Yeah, that's absolutely I'm I'm totally with you, sir, and I appreciate you saying that how long have you been walking with the Lord now 09 teams picked for God so I imagine then in the 60s. You began to hear about the signs of the times and Jesus is coming very soon and all that right yes I did errands looked in all that that late great planet Earth and all that Celia counterculture revolution in sex drugs and rock 'n' roll. In the sexual revolution all the craziness and this is it in Jerusalem back in Jewish hands, and I believe all these things are significant. But obviously, the date said he was wrong. And here we are a totally with you. Yet we should we should stand up and supposed to stand down. We should not back down not quit but we should get with God and for thank you for weighing in 866-34-TRUTH of its go to Eric and Charlestown West Virginia. Welcome to the line of fire for my caller time online and rectifying on the radio so quickly.

Thank you.

I wanted to rectify your screen is a straight attempt to condense everything I going to ask about the idea of retreat and the Christian faith. I guess in a way I I I can't see why anyone you love somebody is an account of a very sure of sure of proselytizing are sure their faith in God do that but I mean it.

In these times when it would you say the church is so is struggling itself so much, that maybe retreat in a kind of a building of it of the message to then go back out. That is, that it when you fail retreat is maybe wrong but maybe it needed to question Eric and I appreciated thanks for being a long-term listener motel listener number number one was still living in this world.

Yes, your and our kids are still being bombarded with stuff in school were still in the midst of media, social media, Internet, there are needs urgent needs all around us. Some a practical level, what would retreat look like this is radical but like a man. I got III know myself either certain outcome of the Amish Mennonite communities that I've seen, but actually being exposed to a lot of water technologies. I would probably do them or damage that might help myself but I'm either an example where they are your feelings about the sewage distilleries there are good since we get some clarity. Let's talk about that. That's the way to go. Mennonite says the Amish separated from society simple lives and nothing caught up with the spirit of the world talked with that we come back in the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown. So much for 14866 is the number to call so Eric asked you and Charlestown West Virginia right so the first thing how do you reconcile the calling of Jesus to not put our light under a basket, but rather to go into all the world and make disciples. You reconcile that with say the Amish mentality. I generalize the route you know that 1900 years what would have Becca what you would agree there is been.

I love and I wouldn't say forever for all societal communities. They retreat you know don't be a light into the world to me. III understand that in general, but in this time it is work even going to church and be at the bar Lonnie. Not all churches certainly the one that entered, and so demoralizing that I am all I no longer go. I find the my own independent study and a lot of reading and to nourishment, I would say it the next level course would be to find a community that yeah and it's really essential to my suite. God made us for community. You need auditors and they need you see here here's is the fundamental issue I have the word since were in the world but when out of it and and Paul makes clear that when not called out of the world that that if we were not to hang around sinners be influenced by citizen would have to leave the world rather when it comes to a believer the claims to be a follower of Jesus is living in unrepentant willful adultery, some with that then that believer would be disfellowshipped, but that other was posted. Of course you be in this world so we have to do is be in it and not be polluted by it. But you see, if if we just first logistically, there's a way for us to all totally withdraw were in the midst of every business in every aspect of society, and so on. And you know that on the Mount enclaves for Mike to go to this first thing the second thing is then society completely collapse around this and next thing people would be hunting us down where we are for having beliefs that are contrary to the authoritarian state which is taken over and and then all that it ultimately comes down to selfishness rather than a heart for others because over try to do is preserve ourselves where's we have the message that the world needs and in point of fact we have been so unengaged for so long so prayerless for so long so worldly for so long it's it's a wonder that America hasn't completely collapsed around the so everyone that I know folks on close with.

They been seeking to live counterculture lead for years. At one point my home congregation. 95% of the families homeschooled maybe been hundred percent quencher is run 95% for while all that was just their way of saying were not thrown our kids into the current educational system regular whatever sacrifice it takes homeschooled Letterman can do that and was called to do that and then for much of our marriage would have a TV in our home because we just want to be polluted with certain things for the kids growing up and and and so on and so forth.

So I'm all for coming out of the sin of the world, but we have the antidote, the world is dying. We that the world is been bitten by poisonous snakes and and we have the antivenom we have the this the solution to reverse the poison. It would be downright sinful for us to just save it in case we get bit got to give it to a dying world so that that's refund of the different yes by all means let's repent let's come away and get with the Lord and seek his face but not by withdrawing from the world, but rather by keeping ourselves unspotted fluid and hey Erica I hope you can destroy yourself and find a house group find fine so you can throw yourself family of spiritual leadership in your life as well. You can share with others the gifts God's given you. You can be ministered to by being part of the body. Thank you for weighing answer.

I appreciate 8663 for 87884. Let's go to Judith in Hagerstown, Maryland.

You are on the line of fire around my way to (I stop I was driving and you are a time I God I know that is being trying to put me and always. So I'm looking and very tight been listening to perhaps I need to hear now how I'm going with everything you have and I agree Ashley with a fresh caught. I agree that that the second class. Well, they all have my own experience exchange now and I we pray that there will be people that will be able to speed on the ward and doing what you you you say okay.

Now I got I be and is warm but don't dumb me like you. You are in the world in the world but not of it. Yes, exactly. I know very good with March � I wanted to call you because you have clicked everything and that wire that I wanted it to Carol to tell people die right now I my my great obstacle right now is to try to make my family see I had to write my dad and aunt Don and I know I cannot going that give me. Thank you stay at our annual wall revive I'm trying to plan it out migraine like he said I cannot help but very difficult yet you wanted to retreat when I get lab but there all by myself now but even there you making this just yet, you had to get on their key acclamation waste � again I was to carry you and prepare you for the time that is common been giving it to us for so now I'm testing like you play it like a maybe wooden planks and many donut shop now because God has plans and we are now when I see everything that he is trying to prepare to put together to trust Kant to file week we will spend down and just jump in for one second and into this.

You are you are doing great with your words absolutely loud and clear so so bottom bottom line. Bottom line is this, let's choose your feminist example so it's difficult they don't believe what you believe you see them heading in the wrong direction. Your feel like the only one that's how some of us feel in the larger society. But, you know, the same God that touched touched you can touch them. The same God that then answers prayers for you can answer prayers for them and and where would we be where would I be if not for people who prayed for me when I was the of the ultimate rebel in my high school and first service I came to church young lady knew from high school wrote down in her diary.

Antichrist comes to church think of that Antichrist construes that that's how wicked I was that that's the reputation that I had from God.

Godliness and within a matter of months. I was radically saved in preaching Jesus boldly and God choose me around the world and in many ways I never would've imagined. That's all the grace of God. That's all attributable to both attributable to the goodness of God and the mercy of God, so amen, amen, amen. You hang in there. You keep your eyes on the Lord and in here's here's what I'll get thank you so much for for the call. I do appreciate you this. May the Lord touch your family and will will be right back to your calls but here's here's how I started my latest article going to the line of fire that worked to read it said this whenever I hear Christian leaders talk about the inevitable collapse of the church of America or elsewhere. I asked myself, but hasn't Jesus risen from the dead did you send to the right hand of the father has all authority in heaven. There is been given to him. We commanded to go make disciples in his name, and by his authority so so it if that's the case, how can we speak of any inevitable collapse of the church are specifically Christian society regardless of how inevitable the collapse appears to human eyes. Here is a summary of my latest article if Americus determined to go to hell. Let it go to hell over dead bodies. Charles Spurgeon said this sinners be damned lease let them leap to hell over dead bodies if they perish with the parish with her arms wrapped about their knees for them to stay. If hell must be filled. But if you filled in the teeth of our exertions and let not one go on the warrant and on prayed for. Amen and amen I was going straight back to your calls. We come back on the other side of the break not tantra treat friends the time to throw in the towel. Time start repent of our sins and their faces before God.

Your new blouse change this world around us by the power of the gospel through salvation inversion repentance transformation error 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 joining us on the left said that I'm able.

My words, unable to put words to what she's feeling and thinking that's what we mean by being your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution as you stand with me in prayer as you share these radio broadcast my articles, books, videos with others as you stand with us and financial support. You help amplify my voice which is an amplifying your voice and together we are making a difference. 86634 let's go to Sheila in Richmond, Virginia. Welcome to the line of fire. Hello, hello Dr. Brown go for you on the church been compromised by animallike candidate. I've been standing to bye-bye get started back after many years of rejecting it and I had television steady growth which has taught so much to me and demand that the scientist is well and the children have been at that step. My six-year-old grandson giving him observation, hypothesis, conclusion, and I'm knowing that the next thing is there is no God, and whether we can't be related, aunt, grandparents and all people. At least we have to give enough foundation of the parallel of Christianity to the extent that even it can outdo the scientific theory. So that's something I sure didn't know anything about. But I had to listen to the people in the Valley of the Bible. And when you stand that compromise one dose ignorant of the Bible and just listening to a minister and I'm shocked at epic that I get The degree in the Bible and mankind. Now and haven't really change your heart.

If the heart has been changed and not trying to do anything to bailing out manic. Don't want to get bailout and be occultist better and the church of people I guess try to cause confusion and effective step in my caring again, look at him and say well what that purpose and instead of doubting yourself, they might be.

Therefore, not a purpose that check is that a great he gets to get the money and they won't tell the truth to the people and companies with people about the world being already making pain.

Yeah, there is there is a spirit of compromise and often people calculate will if I address this message can be too controversial and I'll lose people lose people lose in common is influencing how can we do it was supposed to do without people in income and influence. It's a totally carnal way of looking at things as opposed to father what pleases you.

How can I minister effectively to your people.

How can we be lights shining in dark places. How can we equip the church in this critical time I can sit Sheila. There were things that say for example kids getting hit with objections to our faith based on evolution or other scientific theory and do we have a response to we have a response that will withstand the criticism, a solid, honest response. If so, we gotta dig we gotta learn these things. We got equip rather than either just compromise or get out of the way, God forbid, we do are either hey thank you for winging it and yes the parents and grandparents need to set the standard for the next generation and nurture them into relationship with God so that those standards are not external but internal.

Thank you for calling 86634 let's go to Fernando in Boone, Iowa. Welcome to the light a fire.

I got the wrong are you doing doing well. Thanks be listed here for quite a while now.

I called it the God banquet go by your own on the on the air every time I have my lunch break so I have been a blessing and named in the opportunity to listen to you and wanted to share you know how I agree with you all for the situation to deal with the country to the situation to them now. It heartbreaking and I know it hurts the Lord our you know any hurt, heart beat the church today, and again I'm I don't I'm not going to say that everything will church bailing to to do what we could both be doing but I think that in general, many of the churches of law. There their ID that they don't lock there. I am a DNA and so I think that the Lord's been calling out to two go back to him and cry out for forgiveness. I had a dream a few years ago. Dr. Brown and his dream. Now I don't usually follow Clay Kim Clement on the TV. I respect the field. I know women of God. I know that you being broken five through 12 years that he had broken five through the years, but I had a dream OPM preaching in an all in church and all all I call on my dream will him you will get out you will kneeling down. It was weeping, and you will crying out several times during the bait like I leave three crime that.I'm I think now I know the God thing again because I don't know if ability follow Kim Clement but I respect the God because I know that you man of God you know and and though I do believe that will lower asking you just cannot just go jump in because were just at the end of the hour, Kim Clement, of course.

So with with the Lord now, but the CEC there there two extremes. That to me are both in serious error.

There is the one extreme that says everything's fine room. Good when you talk about the size of our church that the saws were budget overgrowth for good good. The other extremists over there is no hope.

There's nothing we can do.

I don't see either of those is biblically based, realistic or honest assessment superior.

I see the needs is urgent. I see the needs as life and death. I see the patient. So to say is critical, but I see the solution and urgent seeking of God.

Yes, seek him earnestly stop playing church games stop living like the world seek God's. The problem starts with us before the Lord. The solution starts with us before the Lord.

Amen.

It's that simple. It's urgent but simple and it's the same thing. I've been preaching in writing feeling for decades now, so I'm not a Johnny-come-lately to this exuberance have carried for decades. Go back to 1989. Read end of the American gospel enterprise and see if this on an urgent warning being sounded then about the state of the nation of even asking then is it too late for America now is the time to seek him earnestly. All right friends I really can join me for the next hour I've got a very important interviews coming your way that's going to be a real eye opener joining at the line of fidelity sure to sign up for our newsletter.

Check out our special resource offer and bottom line.

It's urgent, it's urgent, but is ultimately what you've heard about Dr. Kermit Gosnell's house of horrors.

The abortion doctor convicted of killing babies outside the womb, you get a whole lot more today it's time for the line of fire with your host activist and author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution Michael Brown is the director of the coalition of conscience and president of the fire school of ministry get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH. That's 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown yacht.

Jesus said it didn't that he was building his church is messianic obligation. The gates of hell would not prevail against it. Even though we have seen much evil and wickedness in the world don't quit. We don't throw in the towel. We don't back down.

We don't say it's too late. Instead we proclaim the name of Jesus boldly. Instead, we stand for truth boldly. Instead, we pray in faith and stated we witness instead we stand against the evils in our society. One of the greatest evils of all abortion single sin of abortion enough to damn America, the bloodshed of the unborn enough to damn America. We stand alone by God's mercy and thankfully there are some it's a small minority, but some of the church you have remained faithful and strong when it comes to when it comes to the issue of standing against the evils of abortion were going to have a very important discussion with Ann McElhinney. She is co-author of the book Gosnell the untold story of America's most prolific serial killer. That's the title of the book, a national bestseller and find out about this and I want to encourage you friends that in the aftermath of Roe V Wade. I've been told I was around them, but I never I never focused on it at all. The issue of abortion. I was really not conscious of a socially much church was really not conscious of these things socially, but I've been told by some of my older Christian friends who were engaged in that things look worse for the pro-life movement. In 1973 after Roe V Wade.

Then they look for the profamily movement today. The things look worse in terms of being dispirited and being divided and now this major decision past ruled by the courts and the repercussions looking massive all yes it's been horrifically destructive in our society. Over 55 million babies killed the woman if if you have aborted your baby and come to the Lord for forgiveness.

Be sure that forgiveness is real and if you live under a cloud of guilt alert you to surrender your life to God, the God of life. The God breathed life into that baby and ask him to forgive you through what Jesus did. Jesus died for every sin including the sin of abortion and he can give you hope and he can, he can work in a redemptive way in your life. He can work in a redemptive way in your life but but bottom line. Bottom line is this, people stood people acted people didn't back down and we have seen the tide turning in many ways here in America.

Yeah, we still have the heart of abortion, but the pro-life movement is healthier today that it was 1973, and one of the reasons is some of the evils of abortion have been exposed some of the horrors of abortion have been exposed, including including the Kermit Gosnell house of horrors. So were going to talk about this book and I encourage you call a friend text them and email them post on Facebook. Tell them to tune in and she seemed duck dynasty Alan Robertson of Duck Dynasty wrote the forward to this book again. It's called Gosnell the untold story of America's most prolific serial killer. It's really going to be and I opener friends and got some important new articles up go to the line of fire the Lord to read what's been posted through the weekend and today it's the light a fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown, the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown face-to-face with Philadelphia's baby butcher in this gripping expos� with the stories especially chilly because he did not act alone. The true horror lies in Gosnell's ghoulish gallery of enablers. Feckless government bureaucrats abortion radicals and enable media McElhinney and Eckley are our unflinching torchbearers truth. This book is a public service were talking about the book Gosnell the untold story of America's most prolific serial killer by Ann McElhinney and Philip McAleer may have missed pronounce the names there, but will get that straight and and is with us today. Thanks so much for taking time to join us on the line of fire. Great to be hearing well thank you all right good good okay there's so much to be told I'm I'm holding the book in my hands it, it's it's well researched.

It's it's every every page is more intense than the next page but but you and your colleague have have done investigative journalism for years and this is not the first shocking expos� you've done. What makes this stand out though.

You know a lot of what you just said in the quotation from Michelle Malkin, how and not easy but easier to comprehend one person doing something extremely evil and an awful end but to then have to contemplate or comprehend layer upon layer of people who knew and did nothing.

That's where it gets really an disturbing. I find it very disturbing. I find it very disturbing that this guy that I find it more disturbing that government bureaucrats in Harrisburg Pennsylvania did nothing.

Despite literally the body piling up in the basement of 3801 Lancaster Ave. I and let's take one moment for those who still don't know what Kermit Gosnell is who don't know what Gosnell's house of horrors was about. And one reason is you mentioned the complicit media. I mean if if if this if this was some scandal on the right. The media would be talk about it for years Little Rock trying to bury it one of the guys convicted. You can convict a guy of abortion is convicted of murder. I get what would you call most prolific serial killer. No exaggeration or so paints a picture of what this man did over the years. Yeah Kermit goblet about 73 years old now starting free life in Huntington Pres., Pennsylvania for delivering babies alive and people would come to him. Women could come to him for abortion.

He would deliver the baby alive at every stage. Up until nine month and then when the baby what the light was kicking with writing what trying to swim in one case the child point from life he or one of the system would take that baby neck with a better as a way of killing. And he did this over a 30 year period.

I like that he had accomplished the people who worked in the clinic with him and who did this when he wasn't there in the end he was convicted for three counts of all, fighting the death of three individual babies whose life we hear about in great detail in the book and also object in regard during the trial and have to be at this clinic that he ran in wet, all in West Philadelphia 3801 Lancaster Ave. in West Philadelphia. Was I just gossiping and disgusting disgraceful horrific place work walking around in the Meijer room. There was blood stained everywhere. There was a smell of human feces all over the clinic. He didn't.

He had fallen out with the hazmat group who would normally would've taken away the you know that that the remains of the baby that were butchered there and when you have this dispute than the bodies just started the pileup and one of the big some of the babies were disposed up through you know that if you know that that that that the thinking of the thinking for the little thing that people have whatever that's called a food disposal unit.

Yes I am. And he also you know what suspected of feeding the remains of the baby crab at that they have been sure how she had a New Jersey I mean, they're ugly there it goes on and on and on in terms of the horror and the descriptions are very, very graphic, but people you know lots of people read the book.

The book is a bestseller New York Times bestseller sold out within two days it has been reprinted twice now and people reading it you don't like what I think I compare this to it. An American Holocaust and you in the same way that the Holocaust, the original Holocaust with an athlete. People said all you know, I didn't know anything. I didn't know this was going on yet what people need to know that this happened in the United States of America.

Did you know that this didn't happen in some backwater dissident progressive Pennsylvania and progressive Philadelphia if it can happen there. You don't.

Be warned that can happen where you are to you mentioned the book instantly selling out serious some controversy with that as well. In terms of recognition of the sales of what happened. So I had to book him on 24 January sold out almost instantly on alt.ran out a copy to Barnes & Noble in Books A Million and and on Amazon Everett Aldo Feller law had run out of all the Amazon crack and when you felt about you look up any book of your listener look up any book right now and I'm W number connected to it and outnumber an example with a lot of book to be 10 or 15,000 is the number which means at the house and most bought book on Amazon and Amazon that the biggest venerable in the United States during that first week when we came I first we were number three on all the books being sold in the United were number three in the number four so the publisher to be worked at regular rates that you know what that means.

I mean you're going to be on the New York Times bestseller list at like three or four in the hardback nonfiction section when the New York Times booklet came out we were not on the hardback nonfiction section. Despite the fact that the numbers that we should be. We got in touch and are rearming. People were buying the book really angry about that got in touch with the New York Times, only to discover that the New York Times best seller list for hardback nonfiction and older bestseller list are not made up of bad sellers but yet you heard me correctly, they don't make that number up based on what is a bestseller, even though they called it a bestseller. They bacon they make it up on something they called contact your you have a probably a very sophisticated limitless.

If there who understand that when you have the New York Times calling for contact rather than just using the wrong� Tell what the bestseller worked there up to no good. They eventually have to kind of complete and we are on one of the New York Times bestseller. We never got on the hardback bestseller list.

Even though we were hardback bestseller. We were the least number three on the number four on the decidedly� Let probably because I didn't like the content right so let's try to understand this and I've written was 30 bucks now and the last one in which it is my wife.

We got up to like 150 something on Amazon and I was thrilled to to be discussed serial #write number three is mind-boggling to me especially given that the account is not self-help. It's also mystery thriller so the content has to be that jarring look the all the media, the liberal media that that wooden report on this, the New York Times or the are the people that evil eye me were not talking about should a woman have a right to choose your or a hardship case of revenue work when I'm debating that right now were talking about this house of horrors story correct your bottle in there like you, not active pro-life court case that happened went on for over a month in Philadelphia. There was a doctor on trial for murdering children born alive but he then stopped and it is not the real thing that happened so that the whole thing people can debate pro-life and pro-choice didn't actually happen to think that this was not reported because all you know, some kind of a really we only know because we have a chapter in the book for the media you know were asked to clean out know some of them you don't have the courage to actually say we were never going report on the story that shed a negative light abortion and bed Bath dimming date they were pretty open about you and that is what exposes the depths of depravity and what makes the book all the more shocking there was such a commitment to this pro-abortion ideology that even when you have cars like this and the shock along with this is that this may not of been the only clinic like this in America. And when I'm dead and then it just gets you say okay if someone could perform abortions all these years with babies in the womb. It's not that much of a jump to kill babies outside the limits that some of the horror of this art we come back.

I've got a bunch more questions for my guest and masculinity.

The book God is now the untold story of America's most prolific serial killer and all that's to see drive time for another quote year kitty tablets editor town hall I read regularly and fill in current courageously to the heart wrenching, shocking story previously ignored when that every American needs to read page abortions, Gospel Takes Its Pl. in American history is a monster's victims were the most innocent and helpless among us.

God help us file the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the minor fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown national incident bestseller and did you actually speak with Gospel any point prison have interacted with him personally, yet absolutely we did a little interview. In fact, I went to Brooklyn with Neil very chilling very extraordinary experience.

Here's a guy via role the Lord, you know, very jovial, very upbeat kind of laughing, smiling all the time he signed wife to me during during the visit, you know, was explaining about music and broke into song. Very odd. Also, I knew I had expected that there would be Plexiglas, but I wouldn't be sitting ghetto in the same room with him that there be some kind of a barrier, but in fact I want in the cave. He was able to in my personal space and Touching my leg continuously during the interview, I and he saying to what what you see, I knew I had one we made a movie about about goblin composer had said to me you know asking about music because he talked a lot about the fact that he loved Chopin that he loved the music of Chopin � laugh about music and he started think all you know it's wonderful now that I'm here you know that I'm in, I'm in here that I'm trying now you really got time for you know to concentrate on music I'm listening to music and was pretty marvelous and cannot be listening.

Jeff Brown you know that the Belgian crooner romantically or maybe your listeners know who we very well known Belgian court would find it beautiful love song. You don't need to got brain freeze worried What the name name of that song and I know Jack very well. I just so happened I really like the song that chaparral.

His most famous song that everyone noted mimicking to, you know, don't ever leave me and him basically I find out I got milk started singing in French, mimicking You do create, don't we.

We must not forget. We must not forget that anything to me in my thing over and know my horse, no remorse, no remorse, absolutely not. Did he think that he was helping people. He sent back mid back the cost to put them away. We you know Jim would when he was being arrested God electric that this is what happens when you try to help people know I don't know. Actually, that's not but then a lot of what he said like I mean I think he was pretty interested in the money you know he had a ton of money. I know that when when his house was eventually rated by the cockpit on $250,000 in cash in it daughter's bedroom had a lot of merchandise in Instilling it packet like a porterhouse like packets of thinking TVs everywhere.

They had like not even be opening day of the wife had like to make hope but were ghetto hung up and and address her.

I think he really liked the money I mean he had about 17 properties including a very nice property at the beach and no end in in New Jersey so I think he was burial. It was all about the money and getting a lot of money for the late-term abortion that he called which of course more abortion, but all so it was all of these health abuses mean that the picture you paint just like a Hollis cost and picture were people discover all the body's about to be incinerated in your talking so he did over 33 years had a Scott who looks the other way and who helped him for this to continue right level.

He was helped by the fact that Italy workers I need a people who like Peter, women who worked for him like kind of a scribe know very broken.

You know they had a cocktail of things like hepatitis B. They have great educational alcohol abuse and you don't child abuse, drug addiction, all that kind of alcohol at all that kind of stuff and go to the people who we had administering drugs to people, people with 1/7 grade education. People who want a cup, that you wouldn't trust them to mow the lawn at your house and even a plant working from the first player with both people work player for me and the other Laird sure enable him with government officials in Harrisburg at the Department of Health Department of State who got complaint after complaint after complaint and did nothing. And not only did they get complete but two women died as a result of treatment from a from Gosnell. Two women died young African-American policymakers all who died in 2000 and kind of my longer enough to leave a Bhutanese refugee equipment 20 years in a refugee camp in Nepal and died for month after arriving to United States of America a botched abortion gospel clinic where she had been drugged to death by his untrained staff and even that of those two very vulnerable women you know you know from very particular class of the people in terms of vulnerability and need and difficulties and the Department of Health. Bill didn't think it was worthwhile coming to investigate.

Even though the two women died trying hard to believe but it's true.

Two women died and no one at the Department of Health got in their car from their gorgeous office of the Harrisburg to investigate it beyond comprehension and your listeners when you are lifted one small business with many run a bar. Maybe rhetoric they know what the people in the box elder like W down in a heartbeat because something with a cobweb discomfort work. What I can tell you that those people in Harrisburg were just a couple and did nothing despite the fact that the media shall die did nothing to fight back the kind my longer type. They did nothing. They protected abortion clinics at all costs, and then another layer of the just really upset all of your to really really upset all of your listeners. One of the other people goodbye, but here is Gov. Tom Ridge Gov. Tom Ridge, a Republican governor elected in 1995 in Pennsylvania on a pro-choice ticket who gave the word to put the word out to the Department of Health to the Department of State in Pennsylvania don't touch the abortion clinic don't do anything to come in the way of a woman's right to choose. After that 17 years. No one expected the clinic that's that's overwhelming to hear you've done this. This is this is factual information that you have in your book so important to people by the book and I don't know.com that'll bring it to the landing. We'll have an audio version of the book. I never read the book but the people with eyesight issues like myself. I am bit of something that they can do that and get the book on audible and we have an e-book as well for people you know anyone abroad, or whatever like that. We have people yet download e-book straightaway, and if they are gonna look.com and I would urge people to you people need to know what's going on in their own country and I think you even for people listening, I would think you know what, I can't read that you know what you can.

I've a lot of people write me and say I'm scared but you know what I would read this because these children die baby boy ain't died in 2009 on 12 July. People need to know in his life need Not hurt and people need to remember him and memorialize him and you do that when you read the book and when you honor him by knowing his story and telling other people that he lived and died for life and he died at the hands of this Dr. and these people who ran this horrific clinic and here's what's really disturbing.

It's not the only clinic in America for this kind of single song we know that I and you do many attributes I'm so impressed with your passion committed to get this message out. Get the book. Find out why this is only the tip of the iceberg. It's the line of fire with your host activist, author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution get into the line of fire now by calling 8664 through here again is Dr. Michael Brown since my heart is stirred today.

Mike your Harley Street yet yeah sometimes I'm burning a little more intensely today is one of those days and it's because I hear a defeatist mentality among the people of God. It's because I hear a spiritual pessimism that frankly I can't relate to. I can't relate to spiritual pessimism. I can't relate to spiritual hopelessness. I can't relate to the mentality of throwing the towel. I can't relate to the mentality of its two late 866-34-TRUTH.

The number to call. Got a question for you love to know how you feel about this.

Do you believe that we can see Roe V Wade overturned in America and although what will never be a coach without any abortions anymore. The will be a culture without any murders without any rapes or without any drunkenness or without any self-righteousness or all the other sensitive part of the human race, but do you believe that we can see in our lifetime.

Some 60 to 70.

Listening or 80 some year in your teens. Do you believe that in our lifetimes. We could see Roe V Wade overturned in America and a shift more of a shift towards a culture of life. Would you believe that we have sold too many seeds of death and destruction. Therefore it's all over that with all the blood we shed the blood of the innocent. That judgment must come minutes can be crushing judgment were really under judgment or that once a society goes in a certain direction. There's no waiter turned around, you know, it would it would be like a car going off the cliff that's off the cliff. You can't you can't turn it back momentum. As such, the Teacher that is that the state of things or do you have reason to be in your state, your city to say no to worsening change or maybe with the potential of Neil Gore such being nominated, being appointed to the Supreme Court, assuming that that happens and him presumably being pro-life and then soon enough replacements being made. We would assume for Justice Ginsburg Justice Kennedy just sued. I mean, who's gonna be replaced and will there be stronger conservatives being appointed under the Trump presidency will that happen. Second, turn the tide and push things back to the states is possible that the tide can turn ice and strong feelings about this. I'm not expecting American be totally Christian and not expecting America to be totally holy, let expecting America to be some society where you know we have preachers leaving the country and enforcing the rules and everyone has to go to a particular denomination read a certain Bible translation and print know where the ultimate theocracy, God forbid, when Jesus comes back and sets up his kingdom on the earth and joyfully we will bow down to the rule of God, and there will be a theocracy on the earth. Until then human attempts to impose a theocracy or dangerous and destructive human attempts to impose a theocracy to say everyone is now going to be forced to live by these laws of that is when you have danger, but to turn the society through the gospel to turn society through prayer to turn a society through holy living to turn the society by being disciples and making disciples. I don't see any reason that we can't believe for that.

Still in America think I'm wrong, you think it's too late.

So simple question you believe Roe V Wade will be overturned and elected not could be, but will be� Say dictation like 99 your selflessly get the meat out the have the years you have left. Let's say within the next decade.

Do you think Roe V Wade overturned within the next decade, 866337884 number five. The light a fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown, I decided I just asked on Twitter seconds ago, literally just during the break, and I made a 10 to 15 years. Do you believe Roe V Wade will be overturned in the next 10 to 15 years. I gave three choices. Yes no unsure that there's only the first 16 votes because I just posted it. 31% yes 50% know 90% unsure we'll see where that goes. But here's why this is fresh on my mind.

The two main reasons why this is fresh of mama number one in the last half hour I interviewed and McElhinney. She, together with fellow Mecca leader have written a book, an instant national bestseller cause no dental story of America's most prolific serial killer talking about Kermit Gosnell with his abortion house of horrors and he's serving with three life sentences for killing three children outside of the womb, but this was his practice and I will go on with more of the gory details, and yet the secular media did not report on this. I mean you're talking about a serial killer you're talking about someone that made a fortune off destroying babies and there were even mothers who died as a result of mistreatment in his abortion mill and the authors tell us that this was not just an aberration. Some outlying case and there's nothing like her is is more pro-life propaganda. The horrible details are there they stood up before the court and my guest and McElhinney made clear that these things were done with the with the cooperation of others that they were done with the approval of others. Shockingly, shockingly enough that there were government leaders that were complicit in this there were health officials were complicit in this, the media, in many ways complicitous there were workers in the clinic complicit in this soul with that freshly on my mind once again. I asked myself the question okay what about overturning Roe V Wade in our lifetime. Some a simple question you believe Rosie Wade will be overturned, but could be, but will be in the next 10 to 15 years. That's one reason some a month. Another reason it's on my mind is because I have been writing wrote in the last week and last night again. My latest article you can read onstream dog org of Christians should not surrender the fight for our culture or other websites have it as don't put your light under a basket of if America's can go to hell. Let it go to hell over a dead bodies. I wholeheartedly reject the idea that we should just be in some kind of spiritual retreat. I wholeheartedly reject the idea that we throw in the towel because it's too late. I wholeheartedly wholeheartedly reject the idea that it's too late for the culture that nothing can change an end that look even if funds come at this from a different angle, even if nothing could change do we stop standing and speaking, even if nothing could change do we stop raising our voices. Even if nothing could change do we stop being witnesses even does nothing to change.

Do we stop reaching out 8663487884II don't relate to that.

I don't understand that mentality on laundromat sentimentality of things are really dark so let's put the light away. I would understand the mentality of we haven't been playing well.

So let's just quit the game understand that relate to it and and and here's the other side when I go to the Lord when I get in the presence of God. When I when I stand with him and and and and seek his face and bow before him. He lights a fire in my heart to stand and to speak and then you read the latest news is it how can I not speak you look at the heart of abortion. Think how can I not speak you look at things are young people getting indoctrinated with you. Think how can I not speak you see so many people whose lives are messed up, and his laws are hurting because they don't know the Lord you think how could I not speak With the prophet Jeremiah Jeremiah chapter 20 wrote a commentary on Jeremiah site Mattson's lived with the prophet for several years drinking and his words every day for several years praying over his words every day for several years and I am not Jeremiah J day. Jeremiah might say that, but many of you like me could relate to his experienced was Bert. Many of you reading the book you can relate that he was under such pressure and stress more than most of us could ever imagine that it is too much sun shut up it's too costly to speak the word is too costly what you want ice when I when I speak I get revile. I the whole I haven't borrowed pretty much went to anybody that the whole world hates me whole society hates me and it gets physically attacked. He got put in stocks. PE got abused in different ways and then you have to deliver these horrible prophecies of death and destruction. Women are going to be widowed management be killed in battle and children to be orphaned and horrific judgment to the temple burned and who wants to give words like that was the tell family members and friends you're gonna die judgment and God is sending the judgment and picture some prophet saying God has raised up Isis to bring judgments want and in yet Jeremiah was in God raised up Nebuchadnezzar. God called them never guess my servant yet this is the man that was responsible for atrocities against the Jewish people was that he went beyond God's calling of judgment, but he was raised up to bring judgment. Jeremiah got to the point that that's that's I'm just not going to speak anymore. Because where open my mouth.

It's just too controversial. I can't do it said I can hold back his word in my heart like a fire shut up in my bones.

I'm weary of holding it in can't. That's how I feel. That's a some of you feel that I can't say no to the bird again on social media and I see the ignorance among some believers in outlandish things are said I have to speak I can come summer school with latest report with what's going on in school, follow my knees and prayed and I'm gonna talk to the administrator. The school you walk out on the college campus and you see the decadence in the flesh and the partying all around you in a lost generation.

Does your heart cry out, preach the gospel tell about Jesus, you talk to yet another victim of abortion in the mother the grief she is experiencing. After realizing what she's done. How can we not speak. Can we not act. I friends that have come out of homosexuality friends that have come out of gender identity confusion and and they would say we've gotta tell people there's a better way. We've got to side.

I don't relate to this mentality of notes so dark we should just put our lights under the basket, the darker it is, the more our lights are needed to shine 866-34-TRUTH 784 so what you think. You believe Rosie Wade will be overturned in our lifetime use a note rod downward spiral and were under divine judgment is no turning back. Reduce a hate. Jesus is coming real soon it's all going downhill before that or do you say why in the world would be not think it could be overturned and see good evidence that it will be overturned. Talk about this more. Let's just see a few more votes are for 60 something votes on Twitter if I can do simple on Facebook, I would. But you have to.
