We've got questions, we've got answers. Let's do it today right here on the line of fire stage for the line of fire with your host activist and author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution Michael Brown is the director of the coalition of conscience and president of fire school of ministry get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH index 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown. Well, there is some breaking news, the FBI said that they are going to investigate a fresh some of the issues having to do with Hillary Clinton's emails.

They are not officially saying that they are reopening the investigation summary using that word. But that's major Hillary Clinton in my viewing review of many.

From what I just anymore the the FBI and Justice Department were shocked that she was not indicted should have been indicted.

I think this is perfect timing.

Let the full level of corruption in this administration and with Mrs. Clinton be known so that the public can vote accordingly. I think we pretty well see Donald Trump's baggage and faults and problems let us have full life on Mrs. Clinton so that we can vote wisely. Hey, welcome to the broadcast, yet were not going that way today.

You may want to talk about that that were not going that way.

If you have a question about the elections want to ask me or sooner. My perspective great. This is not the data call in and say have voting for this one of yours. Why we do that on other days, but your data call and with any question of any kind whatsoever. If it's appropriate for Christian radio, then it's appropriate for this show right if I can help you in any way biblically, theologically, culturally, politically, in any way, shape, size and form 866-34-TRUTH hey, even when it comes to losing weight.

Our new book, breaking the stronghold of food is available for preorder now the book co-authored by Nancy and me that literally can mean the difference between life and death, and in many, many readers so when cover that as well. 86634878841 of the piece of news that I think you be pleased to hear you may have read an article that posted on charisma news.com may have read an article where I asked Pastor Carl Lance Pastor of Hill song church in New York City. One of the fastest growing churches in the region and pasture lands with an open door to celebrities from all printed Justin Bieber into baptizing Kevin granted open doors with athletes and on and on and on.

He was on with Oprah and make comments that have people calling him a heretic and say that he denied Jesus is the only way to God.

Part of the interview he did preach Jesus clearly our need to repent of sin. At the same time the other parts of the interview that seem completely ambiguous. Can it do you have to be Christian to have a relationship with God. No, so I've been unable to contact pasture lands and tried over the last couple years number of different times had been unable so tried again this week to reach out to him through my staff to his staff. No contact mates, I posted the article tweeted him about it and not long after he tweeted he back said hey I'm using a hold of. I do know you're trying to reach me, so we exchanged privately. Our email addresses. The city actually written to me once we get back to excited know that so anyway I I don't know what setting. I don't know the exact timing, but he told me he's eager to clarify his comments and to explain exactly what he believes so hopefully will be hearing that soon but if you read that the E the article we had set to go on a bunch of other sites and when I heard from us and hate.

Don't posted anywhere else in the end by article we posted an update saying he's made contact and were looking to interact so I thought that was wonderful, and I'm eager to share those things with you out of pestilences mouth itself. So all that. Hopefully in the coming days. Again, don't know exactly the setting if it will be of an interview setting. If it will be in writing, but I just wanted to share that with you special of you listening in greater New York city 866-348-7884 the number call taker questions we come back number and it's the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown. Looking back to the line of fire, 866487884 number call you got questions, we've got answers and we will start with our friend Isaac and Hollywood, Florida.

Nice to hear from you Isaac good. You know I was speaking at a conference in New Jersey and a young Jewish men and Isaac came up to me to introduce himself and said hey I'm Isaac I just wanted to say hi and I I said all Isaac's also using your last name and it was what and I looked at his name tag.

I thought all he's just another Isaac so I thought coming up to New Jersey to say hi and anyway these days but not yet what you want today in John chapter 8 the woman caught in adultery, in my exp Bible is a footnote in this passage is not in the original manuscript.

What is your view on this. Really not much debate about the fact that there is debate about the passage. There are, for example, into manuscripts that have it in Luke's gospel or its place elsewhere in in the Gospels, so in and point of fact, it is questionable in terms of whether it should be there in John's gospel or whether he wrote it initially or Luke did what seems certain to me is that it is an authoritative ancient account of something that that happen.

Hence, finding it in different places and different Gospels of the can we be sure it's part of John no. Can we be sure it belongs there in John no I mean contextually fits very well, but were just not sure of that. Do I feel secure that it's a a true event of what happened in the life of Jesus that's been preserved for us. Absolutely yes okay and I will mark the questions sure okay so I'm sure you've heard of the late Rabbi Dori and it has a Post-it note containing five name is a lot of controversy surrounding it.

Even a book written about it. What is your view on this as well.

Yes, oh yes, how can a jury would be completely unknown to the Christian world and season. Much of the Jewish world is not for the claim that he revealed Jesus as the Messiah. In a note he had written before he died.

It was an open subsequently is how could jury died some around the age of the hundred seven. He was perhaps the leading Jewish mysticism in Israel he sexy chain smoker. By the way, just an aside, he lived to be hundred seven either this or if that's a complete aside, but you can actually go on YouTube name is spelled K a D OU RI type his name and you'll see some pictures of him as a very old man appearing at some different events so when he was buried there are several hundred thousand Jewish mandate that were there for the funeral so he was highly revered and there was some claim that he had met the Messiah and a course is a mistake you know he would be more inclined to believe in visions and apparitions and things like that and he wrote something not to be opened until what a year after his death. Carl gallops has a whole book where he wrote about this and counters the objections to it, but it it is an acrostic so that the first letter of each word in the sentence is to be just looked at is sending a message and when you look at the first letter of each word. The sentence exposure whole sure and this was allegedly the name of the Messiah horseshoe of course being Yeshua Jesus so no one from my understanding, Isaac. No one denied that he had written this until messianic Jews started to say, wait a second no-show who is that who is he talking about and then there was a strong denial know it's misunderstood or something. It's a forgery. You can see a counter missionary YouTube clip saying the whole thing is not true in the sun denies and so on. But again, I'm not an expert on this but as I looked at the chronology.

It seems that the denial did not come until after messianic Jews made the connection in a highly respected messianic Jewish leader I know in Israel, a man in his 70s told me he's convinced it's real, and subsequently they've met some of his disciples, and there's a YouTube interview with one of them as well, saying yes this is what Rabbi could jury secretly believed. On the flipside, you might say I don't believe that guys really one of his disciples and is not learning whatever so there is speculation, so will I personally believe I don't know enough to say for sure on him trying to be scholarly, academic and sober about this.

I don't know enough to say definitively does seem the chronology is that the denial did not come until after messianic Jews made the connection. So I simply do not know. However, I fully expect and have for many years. I fully expect to see more things like this happen in the days to come.

I fully expect that the ultra-Orthodox Jews rabbis leaders will be having visions will be having dreams. They may come at things through a different angle to get to the issue of the Scriptures, the reproach might strike us as on, but I fully expect this to happen more and more in the coming days, so if this is true, it would be exactly what I've been expecting for years, yet you quickly explain the social and Yeshua (a lot of objecting thing that you have a choice Joshua and not Jesus is like Michael and Mike. That's all that you Yeshua is the short form for Yehoshua so if you look your whole sure the high priest in the book of Zechariah, yet when you look in Ezra Nehemiah he's called Yeshua the short just yet. Diamonds commonly known you just see it in your English Bibles will be with the jade Yeshua CM Josh of Yeshua, yes, you'll see that many times that the name issue occurs 27 times in the Hebrew Scriptures for reference about five different people but most of them were Frankie horseshoe, the high priest and remember, no sure, the son of Newton in and so Joshua Moses aide is also called how Shaye he has an emotion that's another short form of Yehoshua so him and there's no argument about this is just like a said Michael and and Mike or you know you have a gas stream short from like Jake Jos� Dick for Richard Jake for JF said the same way you issue is just a short form for Yehoshua commonly knows note, no debate about that really thank you so much.how do it one day meet you yeah gobbling coupling Ohioan all right. Thank you, 86634 to if you wonder about the familiarity there. Isaac, a very sincere young Jewish man and an older teenager who, with the last couple of years came to saving faith in Yeshua the Messiah we were able to to help with that summit. So the transpired on the radio here so thank you for praying for us. Much appreciated and just reminder the earlier you call the better chance I have of getting to your call before our time is up.

Let's go to all right. Let's not.

Let's go to Peter in Staten Island. Welcome to the line of fire, Greg got ground. I have a question of counseling. Every yes okay for counseling question in there in a Christian marriage. If now is getting on in years 60 and over. The wife has no more desire and the husband Doug will what you know what, how does a Christian man who was married and deal with that when there's a lot of desire, but the life just as it it's kind of almost give the impression like it's repulsive yeah so I just got not going to care anymore, but I would love to hear your counter. Let me ask this and I don't want to minimize the challenge of this you can make you be in the 60s is still full of full of energy and sexual vigor and desire. But what if you were single. Let's say your wife had passed away and you were single of what would you do with those desires. Wrote I would do nothing I couldn't acquit and act on them and only act on the sanctity of the marriage rights you would need God's grace to help you.

Be disciplined and walk in holiness and control your thought life right exactly the right background mentioning too much earthly but this is my second marriage and the reason one of the reasons I wanted to marry a godly woman which my life absolutely your godly strong Christian, but it was also that I had being single of these desires. Another one of the things I knew was that I can only strategize in the video marriage so so guy yeah yeah got it then and I the Lord certainly honors that so here's here's what I would say everyone your own life, you need to maintain a disciplined by God's grace and you know there's sufficient grace, that's one thing you say it's much more challenging. Married, you know, someone I love and attracted to you understood second thing is for yourself and your wife to be a blessing to her and to love her and to make her feel special and beautiful and and and loved, without pressure right so so you minister to her and always that she will receive.

Pray for her that that there would be a kindling of the romantic flame within her, and if there is no changeover period of time, then SQ should be willing to go to counsel Silver. First Corinthians 7 bodies belong to another, that you want to force anything on and see if you get to the root what it is. Whether it's physical literature thing else and out of that place can come for a healthy relationship. Hey Peter, luckily God's grace in your marriage. Thank the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown hardships of Peter Staten Island just just quickly to to review first in your own life. Ask God for grace to continue to be disciplined and not to be frustrated subjected to put your wife under any pressure. Secondly just love our Justin in every way that's important or outside of a sexual whether it's going out for dinner with her spring home a flower with her sitting and spending time together with its complementing her just do your best understand what her quote love languages and and show her your love and and then pray for the rekindling of the romantic flame within her, which with the naturally lead to the desire for physical affection and things like that. If not then asked her should be willing to sit down for counseling showing first Corinthians 7 that her body's on her own. Your body is not your own.

These are the sacred obligation you have to each other and yet you always have to do it with respect and love. Under no circumstances to ever use that to force your spouse to comply me. To me that's utterly apart. The thought of that but rather to say hey can you agree there's a problem and that we have an obligation to each other and account. Can we try to get to the root of that there may be something else and maybe some emotional trauma. There may be some physical shame that you just don't know all right 866342, so don't forget our new book, breaking the stronghold of food you be able to get it in bookstores Amazon.com and and other dealers.

Let us go to Rev. Christian in New Jersey welcomes the line of fire, wrong, wrong, good afternoon, Gregor Nesser are working on equipment, quick thunder liquor can help me� Around under what are some of the art art cartogram cleared for your condo by Mike know why you're worried acute joy to vote for your current turn in the article ever conducted out from under on trumpeter Coco not the Christian button-down shirt. The moderately "what contempt are there no political out what are you looking for. Like I figure out what you think thousand hundred and and I'm an asked question that will time with my answer. What country you from originally from Nigeria, yes or so as as seen evidence from your your accent from Africa. It's very interesting that the perspective of Africans now living in America is often different than the perspective of black Americans that have lived here for several generations.

One of my callers refers to himself as AAA and African African-American which should be like like your case.

Born in Africa and a living in America that often. Your perspective is different than that of other black Americans and and often your status in life and the way you been treated since being here is is often very different.

So there are couple of things on the one hand there is a spiritual stronghold. There is a spiritual stronghold of of an identification with a large number of black Americans at and Hispanic Americans not as high a level and Jewish Americans as well with the Democratic Party and it has nothing to do with with positions or platforms it, it just is. And I'm sure you have some strongholds like that with Republicans on the other side so it doesn't matter.

I remember Sir when Barack Obama was a senator and running for the presidency that I read online or on the radio a letter that he had written to the gay and lesbian Democrat society in San Francisco. Of all the ways that he stood with their agenda and I said look, I'm telling you, if he's elected he will be the most radically pro-homosexual president in our nation's history and one of my callers. A woman named Rachel black American who said she was old enough to remember the speeches of Martin Luther King. She called my show. She said in her church.

They prayed by name for the electing of Barack Obama. They prayed from her by name and she said she said to them, she said, look, Pres. Obama and Sen. Obama believes this and this and this and they said we don't believe it.

So she tried a different tactic she read the letter she had printed it out and read the letter that I had referred to and said to them, would you vote for someone who held to this they said no way and she said that was Barack Obama, the said you can't believe everything in the news. Even in those his letter so she said to me, this can only be broken by prayer. There's a spiritual stronghold. That's one part of it now. The flipside is this that many in the inner-city. Many who come from impoverished backgrounds feel that the Republicans don't care about them. Republicans often have completely overlooked the poor. They've overlooked often ethnic minorities in America. It's been a real fault of the Republicans and their feeling is look we think abortion is wrong.

We think homosexuality is wrong, but whoever is elected president doesn't change anything so regular vote for Hillary Clinton because we think she's gonna be the best known for helping the poor help with education when actually it's the office of the Democratic policies what what keeps poor people poor and's in so many ways not universally and enslaves them so it's a misperception of values and it's a spiritual stronghold of anarchy are Johanna Cabrera, we are currently our kindergartner girl your underdog on Mike you know what you're going to wonder what you lived in my limited character, but it yes or now let us pray right now as I sit at the beginning of the show. I think we know the baggage this in the garbage surrounding Donald Trump let let the truth come out about Hillary Clinton because her dishonesty, her corruption, according to many sources is completely off the charts in a Donald Trump is saying that what's happening. The new emails relating to Hillary Clinton's private private email server instead of a government classified server that this is bigger than Watergate, and it could well be, especially the timing of this is is quite extraordinary. So how do you fight it, sir. First you pray before you talk to people recognizing there to be a spiritual stronghold to show go to website just type in pictures of aborted babies type in and say Hillary Clinton stance that Barack Obama stands for that. They say God bless Planned Parenthood.

Can you vote for. That can use a Christian vote for Donald Trump stands against that with all of his faults. He stands against it and then remind them of what Barack Obama did Pres. Obama to redefine marriage. He pushed it to make it legal for two men or two women to marry and his his administration is actively going against schools, saying, unless you let boys use a girl's locker room and and and and shower you lose your federal funding explosive and Hillary Clinton is even worse, expert challenge that how can you vote for that you voted for the shedding of innocent blood. Give our religious liberties in your voting for corruption, I push it and pray hard. Thank you. 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 thank you for joining us on the line for you. Got questions, got answers here is what Donald Trump said a great respect for the fact that the FBI and Department of Justice and I willing to have the courage to write the horrible mistake that they made. This was a grave miscarriage of justice that the American people fully understood and is about to be corrected. He said that he calmly said in connection with an unrelated case, the FBI's learned of the existence of emails that appear to be pertinent to the investigation.

I'm writing to inform that the investigative team briefing on this yesterday and I agree that the FBI should take appropriate investigative steps designed to allow investigators to review these emails to determine whether they contain classified information as well as to assess their importance to our investigation of how strategic is the timing with WikiLeaks simply very strategic and hate.

Can we all agree on this, regardless of where you stand politically. Can you all agree to pray God bring the truth into the light. Let us fully know who we are voting for on all sides. Can we all agree to pray that right 866-34-TRUTH for truth we go to Sarah in DC. Welcome to the line of fire, the character record fee and in your community. American slavery ran and fell on or in our generation even out another generation and every day. The electric and if so how I not a loaded loaded limited to certain yellow.

Of course, of course, was sin. It was a horrific sin and the fact that the American settlers and those in the generations after basically inherited this from their lifestyle in Europe and just brought it over there. Were there from the very beginning of the founding of our nation. There was opposition to slavery. There were Christians who posted on humanitarian grounds and there are others who thought no, it's fine. Based on the Bible. It's fine. And of course it's it's one of the ugliest that in our treatment of Native Americans. One of the ugliest parts of our history. Millions of Africans were killed in the process of this and those that survived and made it over soul. This is chattel and of course absolutely sinful, wrong, ugly on unexcused inexcusable for under any set of reasoning whatsoever and during the Civil War, which cost us what over 1/2 million lives. I think Pres. Lincoln said something to the effect that all that blood that was being shed was was divine judgment for us to pay back the blood that we had shed.

So on the one hand we have sought to fix that and repent of it and make things right. In many ways we have, however, here's how I look at since of past generations right. I don't need to go back constantly try to figure out what happened 300 years ago what my ancestors did 500 years ago or on and on. Okay, I don't what is important is is this number number one. Does the do the effects of that sin remain until today. Number two. Does the spirit of that sin remain until today. So let's let's say there had been no hatred for Chinese people in America in the past because the real hardship, but that's completely gone. There's no hatred of them today and the fruits of that were passed many generations ago, but we move on, but if there are still remnants of that hatred or if the Chinese are still suffering as a result of it. We have to fix it so on. In that regard. Wherever the this the effects of that sin remain today or the the attitudes behind it. Sin remain today. We have to continue to address it. So where there are racial prejudices in any direction. We address them and to the extent that there is still missed treatment of black Americans, or inequality for black Americans that arises from slavery and segregation. History we have to do our best to try to address that in a holistic way, whatever that is continued without a sense of guilt, hang overhead, but hate that we want to make things right with the still not right.

How to make them like I got along. Thank you. The line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown welcome welcome to the line of fire.

Each 48788 or thank you for calling such terrific questions.

Thank you for raising such important issues. What what a great blessing.

It is for me a privilege it is for me to have all of you as part of my listening audience 8663 for 87884 we go to Reese in New Brunswick, Canada. Welcome to the line of fire very well, thank you for your gracious when people call me 91 non-charismatic Dan and I are I I'm one of the noncharismatic, but you responded very graciously on sort of a thank you for the oh you're very lucky man and it's it's from the heart, with full respect for. Thank you so my question went over to something I'm curious about about cleanliness, anger, next thing the Pentateuch of the five type of guess I'm just wondering I know that that spiritual spiritual uncommon. It's not just wondering.

A secondary meaning. Is it possible that that also like physical or medical alert, and Deuteronomy bearing your weight. I'm in the camp and in August about that that hygienic thing to do your not leaving her washing after admission on recent and in point of fact, the words to horn until May clean and unclean.

For the most part are not talking about spiritual client cleanliness and uncleanness, but rather ritual cleanliness and uncleanliness and some of that can be purely hygienic, and physical. Some of it can be certain social customs and etiquette. Some of it can be loss of separation that God gave Israel. For example if you touch a corpse right and you are unclean because of touching a corpse. It's the saddest sin involved right, it's not.

It's not like you stole something or you lied to someone write your your your walking through the forest and there's a dead body and you stumble on it.

Next thing your ureter hands and say what is a court will that that's not sin, but you would be unclean because it the same thing with unclean animals. It's not that they were inherently evil, but they were forbidden for certain reasons. So and and there are physical things which then teaches spiritual lessons.

For example, to be to be a priest in Israel. You could have certain bodily defects. You know you couldn't be a dwarf.

He could have crushed testicles.

You couldn't visit various things you think how unfair is that the person is born is a way that we can hit a cat obviously but there was, it seems unfair, but there was a lesson a spiritual lesson that was being learned and taught as far as purity of heart, purity of life. No defect only come to bring ourselves with wholeness to the Lord etc. so in in in the Israelites thinking there was not such a big distinction between ritual cleanness, spiritual cleanness, and at times physical cleanness when a why is it that when some of memory don't have toilets and running water and in the ancient world. So if if someone is going to relieve themselves in a defecate, so they had it you carry like a little sick pooper scooper get out of your contemporary word to to bury it. Why, because the Lord goes around walking in the camp. Is it what exactly a walk on though it's it's a obviously spiritual concept but interfacing with the physical though it's act with reverence and and and be clean because a holy God lives in your midst. So holiness was both ritual and spiritual and the things that were only ritual were given to Israel to teach them spiritual lessons and to help keep them separate from the nations.

Sure thing. That's why Jesus in Mark seven and Matthew 15 teaches us not what goes in your mouth that the files, without which comes out of the heart and it was a single had the pork member backs 10.

Peter didn't think there was any reason TD unclean food and I don't think you want to run after accessing great pepperoni pizza. Let's go for the other was a piece of the time that's inside but all that to say there was a constant lesson being learned and part of it was separation between Jew and Gentile and and and Jesus brings about a change. With that with his own life is for is relationship between Jew and Gentile.

Thank you for the call 866-34-TRUTH. Let's go to Jason in Circleville, Ohio.

Welcome to the line of fire. I got round the technical you're welcome real quick question. I listen your program yesterday in regards to Bill Johnson and his wife Betty Johnson on the website at the eye� Worry there is a teaching really talk about soaking in the spirit and on one account. They have a gentleman who said that he was able to go to the third heaven and previous to defeat girls that within our community in Mammoth is wanted to know what you thought about the view of note contacting the dead necromancy medium so you know it pretty quickly talk, they Deuteronomy 18 yes, it certainly communication with the dead, seeking to communicate with the dead is is forbidden scripturally as obsolete. Nothing that we should try to cultivate. If in fact we we claim that we are communing with the dead or speaking with the dead either its own imagination or it's demonic is not to say that in the dream you omit may be you struggled you know you lost a child and you didn't know if the child really knew the how much you love them, you know and and in a dream. You see that child saying daddy I know how much you love me and the Lord is sending that message to you. You know the Lord. Of course I I embrace something like that and I'm not saying it scripturally impossible for someone to have a heavenly experience and to see loved ones there were to be assured that someone is with the Lord or something like that.

I certainly can't exclude that scripturally in terms of of the visionary experience that that somewhat have her spiritual experience and are they difficult soaking in the spirit as I understand it it's it's talking about spending spending time in the presence of God. Just worshiping not pray not sin. God please do this and arrest you for this and help with this, but rather just communing with the Lord, Lord, I will just worship you and honor you and just, just, like you would someone would go out on the beach and get on the water and just, let's turn your mind off of it just just slow down and enjoy the beautiful scenery so you do that the presence of God.

And sometimes when I'm gone way to pray and worship. It's taken me a day to clear my mind of a million questions. I have been issues in ministry needs, and so on. And then after slick. Okay, I can just worship and bask in the presence of God. So I'm all for that to trigger mind often just kind of wait for some revelation you know and that is if you remind us to do it, no it's this matter of submitting your mind and heart to the Lord, but with the Transfiguration, Moses and Elijah appear talking with Jesus there. There's no reason to think that that someone couldn't have an encounter like that again. It could just be a mental picture that God gave them to assure them that a loved one is with the Lord some unguided know and and they have a and the Lord shows them.

Here's this person worshiping at the throne of God have no problem with what is it just a mental picture when the person actually sees that in the spirit realm. But we have to be careful with any of this because it's easy to lead to abuses very easy and by the way for folks to think on the Stig defender of Beth thought, a preacher, the one time I spent a good few hours with Chris Routh in a number of times may be total conversations with Bill Johnson one-on-one, 15, 20 minutes of submariner show the retreat were in the same circle certain times we see each other in say hi but I don't know that we've ever had face-to-face conversations 50 and is probably on the high side and align with parts of things that is written and parts of what Chris is written so that I know folks a been in Bethel for years with with tremendous positive impact in Sonoma we don't preach this reteach is all yeah we did have this problem. It was corrected and administered things a Siciliano agree with that. I love to say I'd love to see a better understanding of the importance of the Old Testament better understanding of the importance of Israel and and not getting behind certain ministries that I consider flaky on the flipside of Italy. There is a vehicle had started out with that because I do know that you like to be confronted certain creatures in front of the church and I did know if I in light of universe 72 when first Corinthians 14. At the end of chapter where Paul's vision that you can come to you only okay I am just going to jump it know I got zero issue that especially doing it under under her husband's leadership. Just go to just go to Astor to Brandon or click on the digital library and typing in a women or women pastors and you'll see my teacher and that which is, it is plainly from everything. Understand that self is not any any shape, size and form. Please consult this to everything I know 100% absolutely category is trying to consult the dead. A thank you for the call. The line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown. Your voice is more cultural and spiritual revolution.

Here again is Dr. Michael Brown welcome welcome to the want of fire. 866487884. Let us try to reconnect with Hurley in Boston. Welcome to the line of fire and both now.

I'm all for title. I'm thinking that they don't know and that more and more and I get a car and someone to do a crime like banking God one day about our baby like that will be Kayla's early here. Here's what I've often said that a vote for Barack Obama. Now vote for Hillary Clinton. Even more blatantly for Hillary Clinton means that we have the blood of the unborn on our hands. Just as we not saved, know that it means we have to give account to God that I'm quite convinced that it is it is wrong and no believer should vote for Hillary Clinton. If abortion was the only issue I have a caller: a selectively what if it was slaughtering Jews and one candidate stood for slaughtering Jews in the other didn't matter how most of the candidate. Would you you could not vote the other candidate I be you could not vote for you could not vote for the candidate, stood for the slaughtering of Jews singly with the candidate he stands for the slaughtering of the unborn and all the arguments while the Supreme Court subtly change anything. I guarantee of Hillary Clinton selected that her point is the Supreme Court and puts things in a very wrong direction. Where is Donald Trump 20s might put things in the right direction. So again someone you know you did it you got one car that you're getting and it's deftly going off the cliff and the other that might not get the card it might not not only Hurley are we responsible for the blood of the unborn, but we will be responsible for that. The taking of our religious freedoms.

In many ways I wrote about it. I sent out a loud and clear warning that a vote for Hillary Clinton is about to put the tape on our mouths to gag us and there the rope around our arms to to bind us and listen. II do not. I do not I do not want to have to say a few years and I told you so. Like I've had to do for eight years with Barack Obama with abortion and homosexual activism. I don't want have to do that with Hillary Clinton with abortion and homosexual activism in our religious liberties. I don't want to have to say we warned you. So I'm urging everyone please put aside your biases and your voting history and do not vote for the shedding of innocent blood and for the stealing of our religious liberties are right there you go, had real quick. I got an yeah I mean you could you could divide things into any number of categories of Italy Judaism.

You have it's called the, yet somehow tell Vanessa hurrah the good inclination the evil inclination.

Some would argue that Paul's view of of of human being is his tripartite first Thessalonians 523, spirit, soul, body she have the spiritual aspect, the natural aspect in the physical aspect of our being exactly had he divided his is debatable, but certainly, we see that that we have our own self and then we have the pull of the world that we have the pull of the spirit we have the war between the flesh and spirit.

In that sense and it's up to us to yield to the spirit.

A thank you much. F course the Holy Spirit lives within us. Thank you for the call 86634 let's go to John in Charlotte North Carolina. Welcome to the line of fire hydrant Dr. Brown very well. That's the question that one quick question I was an excellent read what was last time we talked about okay got a great call about a week ago and got you about the David and five 526 yeah homework that that call to find out a lot on the Israeli flag, so just tell me the yeah like I categorically categorically different with that. So please tell me Amos is writing about old about 2800 years ago. Okay, so please tell me where this star has been discovered in conjunction with Molex 2800 years ago. But what I can't do it tell you that when I go start on Google� You get online you have all kinds of nonsense, you have that Elvis Presley is alive. I can agree with you on yeah right.

Mr. okay now in clinic receptor can it clearly said in an number three, act and every government program right yeah but that's got no connection to Europe today and not Ashkenazic Ashkenazi Judea just to understand Ashkenazi Jews are the result of Jews living in different parts of Europe and then intermarrying with your higher, that's that that's how some of those physical characteristics, but if the town if you will check like me on Ashkenazi Jew or semi wife. If you'll check her DNA goes back ultimately to Israel in the Middle East by appointment. According to the Bible are people from today are correct. No, why not all the tribes and all the tribes of additional air don't know all the tribes of Israel. Okay, ultimately, the remnants of all the tribes of Israel that merged into Judeo the kingdom of Judah, and hence Jews today are from the 12 different tribes okay. I felt similarly agree not you and chatting on the same job� About not about the culture about different was in the region 12 is John John� John okay almost at a time in your original question is on the start date of this report, offered literature and healthy in the New Testament. If you are from the 12 tribes of Israel. Recall that you in the New Testament. If you are from the 12 tribes of Israel.

Recall that you want because all of those people ended up being incorporated into the kingdom of Judea or the people living in Judeo.

The remnants is all incorporated. So Jews today go back to all the different 12 tribes and then others have joined the Jewish people through intermarriage like wristed that's why you have the different ethnic characteristics among Jews. Hey meta time but I'm sure we will talk again if you're on hold. Stay right there. I want to come back to your call as soon as we start the new era, the The new out or starting a new era of a lot of her as soon as we start the new hour. Remember to check out the special resource offer, check out the special source offer on the line of fire is out on my bottom line today we live in an urgent time in American history. Rise and shine.

We got questions, we've got answers. Let's do it today right here on the line of fire stage for the line of fire with your host activist and author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown your voice of moral cultural and spiritual revolution Michael Brown is the director of the coalition of conscience and president of fire school of ministry get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH. That's 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown. Thanks so much for joining us on a lot of far it is Friday which means you've got questions, we've got answers my delight to be on the air with you and share this time together looking at some news here is some Breitbart.com which is very much right wing website but it says WikiLeaks Hillary Clinton's plan to strip religious liberty protections fund abortion overseas.

According to Dr. Susan Berry reporting today emails from the accounts of Hillary Clinton can't Clinton's campaign chairman John Podesta revealed a Clintons close relationship with the abortion lobby would help deliver US funding of abortion overseas without any accommodations for the conscience conscience protections of faith based groups is that any surprise no, not in the least we know how radically pro-abortion. They are, which is why say vote for Hillary Clinton of the blood of the unborn on your hands and it doesn't trouble me. If you're offended over that doesn't trouble me, if you so I can listen Ginny, moreover, that understands what's right and cry out for the unborn. Hey with that.

Welcome to the broadcast. Here's number to call. You have a question about anything that is appropriate to ask on Christian radio.

Anything of any kind whatsoever that I could help you with biblical, theological, spiritual, cultural inner questions about the elections is not the day for you to call in and say hello to vote for this one. For this reason or that one. For that reason, but any question of any kind that you have.

It is my absolute joy to take your calls and questions.

Again the number to call 866-348-7884 and with that, let's start by going to sterling in Vernon, Connecticut.

Welcome to the line of fire. Hello hello got your phone in your hand there. I regret I my question is I say what say what you do. Howard, let's give sterling a minute to get his thoughts together and get the phone properly positioned in his hand so we can talk and we don't waste precious maritime has at same right. Let me go to some email questions will start with Peter Jew Dr. Brown appreciate your work and commitment to defend Jesus the Messiah, but I have a question from Matthew 1628 because one of the Bates response. This verse was fulfilled when Jesus took Peter, James and John in Matthew 17 one but 1627 talks about the second coming in the context was followed by verse 28. Hey, take 71 is the fulfillment of 1628 when Jesus didn't have sent to heaven. I'm sure you jump at all Christians and missing an important reality. What's your response. All thanks thanks for your appreciation for work though it's is very clear that the the text, referring to Matthew 1628 where Jesus says he's he's talking about what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world loses his own soul and then he says the Son of Man is going to come and with his angels, and the glorious father to reward each according to what is done and then he says I sure there is some standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom that they could just refer to say John in the book of Revelation or he sees the Jesus coming in his glory and power. So he lived to see that that revelation, but if you look at this account which occurs in Matthew 16, Luke Susan Mark eight and nine. You'll find that that verse there some setting or not taste it takes definitely see the Son of Man coming his kingdom. That's followed in all three gospel in all three gospel by the account of the Transfiguration. That's significant. That is the spiritual fulfillment. That's when they spiritually got a glimpse of that reality. Hey friends, this is Michael Brown I would encourage you to join our support team today, torchbearer one of our regular monthly support as it enables us to broadcast the line of fire in America and around the world and all. Every month we sold back into any many different ways join our team become a torture asked Brown a SK Brown.org.

Click on donate for cleansing the Expo line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown just to finish my answer again Peter the most natural reading of the text when you have in all three Gospels the verse in the account side-by-side, which is very unusual to have the identical chronology. It is saying that he gave them a glimpse of the Son of Man coming in his kingdom on the Transfiguration. He was glorified as he will be on that day so they saw a foretaste of what was to come.

They saw him coming in his kingdom in the Transfiguration.

Again, some would argue that it refers to someone like the apostle John, whom we know the end of John's Gospel, Jesus makes clear that he is to remain alive and is is what if one follows remain alive until I come. What's that to you so that's also possible reading but to me the most likely because the way the gospel authors all put it again. It's rare that you will have the same text with the same event, one after another in all three synoptic Gospels you have there. That's why say that was the spiritual foretaste of his second coming.

866-34-TRUTH you got questions. We got answers any question it's free for Christian radio.

I am glad to take your call right sterling in Connecticut. Let's try to connect again, go ahead� Brown I would.

I went from breaking. I murmur good art, question and I 103 last Saturday I got up.

And I believe Tom my question and I really like church at free so I'm wondering if I'm preventing all if there's any like evident.

These things have happened.

Like like this new century shovel. The first thing sterling and it's wonderful that you've experienced the Holy Spirit working life like that. I would encourage you to seek to keep praying in the spirit is worshiping the Lord in private praying. Continue to pray in other tongues and and you find yourself being edified on the inside you find yourself being strengthened in your walk with the Lord is as you do that and focus on the Lord, your mind will not understand what you're saying that your spirit will be edified, and from there, your mind will be edified as well. So if you're looking for historical precedent number one you have it in the Bible. That's the biggest thing you have it in the book of acts. In the second chapter. Implied in this chapter and explicitly in the 10th and the 19th chapters you have Paul speak of it first Corinthian's 12 and in first with his 14 affect heat because of abuses. With this he ends up speaking about this even more intensive speaking about this even even more than other topics that we know more about this. The importance of times the value of it not to forbid it, but the potential abuses of it.

And yes, you have incidences where we still have reports of these miraculous manifestations of prophecy, tongues in the early church and then you do have accounts through history of these things happening here and there and but to a certain extent, the church stopped believing in certain things he saw less of it. But you can actually go back into old mid to late 1800s in India, the Holy Spirit being poured out with with tongues in an prophecy and healings and then young people think will distorted beginning of 20 century. That's actually not true, but you will find it sporadically throughout history. There's a book by Eddie Hyatt HY ATT that deals with 2000 years of charismatic history Eddie Hyatt HY ATT I think you'll find that helpful. 866342. Let's go to his arm and go in Miami. Washington alert. Yes, welcome to the line of fire hi hi Dr. Brown gobbler.

My question is how to do with abortion but am 100% against it, but not a respondent reported part of the benefit of all. What if she was raped. If it would have about what you will will first especially as a man for speaking to a woman. We have to speak with compassion and we have to say look, I'm not in your shoes I cannot imagine I cannot imagine if you will, raped the trauma of that I can't relate to it. I can imagine the feeling of being defiled and now the baby inside of you is a constant.

Remember memory of that they get to carry that baby give birth to baby so you want to say candidly, you know you can't personally relate but you say here's what other women have said, who have been raped in the simple line is, why punish the baby because of the sin of the father. Why punish the baby because the sin of the father, so you asked that person. Once the babies born. Would it be right to kill the baby because it was conceived and raped. No of course not and say all right if you agree that it's a baby in the womb. You can't kill it in the womb either. And then you have to say. You know they were there people are Christian leaders and humanitarian leaders, and others that that were conceived in raped my friend James Robison was conceived in in raped and here he's by God's grace with millions of people to the Lord. He could've been taken out there others that are doing great things for people and for God that were conceived in raped so in short we recognize fish. This man that that were not sitting is there judge of other women and that that when I condemning them is this the system easy decision, but number one, don't kill the baby because of the sin of the father in number two.

Once you acknowledge that's a baby in the womb.

You don't kill it any more than you would kill it outside of the womb, and you may want to look at the name Rebecca Kiesling all right KI ESS L ING she was on my show. If you got that done Rebecca Kiesling K i.e. SS L ING. Her mother was raped that so she was born and she's got a great story to tell and she's a great one to help you deal with these objections, Rebecca Kiesling K i.e. SS L ING hey thank you sir for the call 866-348-7884.

Let's go to Neil and Portland, Oregon.

Welcome to the line of fire. I think you have me out your welcome.

My situation is my wife is been in severe chronic pain for five years and where were in our 30s. They're very debilitating migraines all day every day and pain specialist and everything and I noticed myself in the past year to really basically kind of my mood following how she's feeling that day, and certainly I think you'd agree that obviously just normal compassion, but I'm wondering if it maybe has reached a point of idolatry. So II don't know.

I guess how I discern normal presently compassion with idolatry, especially in light of the fact that were unable to do anything together yet.

I'm so sorry to hear that I can't.

I can imagine what it be like there been times in my relationship with Nancy since had severe back condition years ago and some other things and and I know how debilitating I can be and how traumatic it can be for a couple to go through that.

But in a constant severe migraines. You know us is seen as something else so I can relate that only imparts her but at I the only I would never, never, never worry about idolatry. I'd never think of that because of the love I have for my spouse and because the two of us are one so her pain is my pain. Her struggles are my struggles and vice versa. And it's my job as the head of the home and is the one who is to to to love her and nurture her to do my best to see her through solid I would feel a responsibility before the Lord to do whatever he could to help and that would be loving and write. The only way it would be an idol is if you deny the Lord because of her struggles. You know where you say will God I'm I can serve you anymore unless my wife is better than you would be putting something before the Lord and I'm assuming you've dealt with everything in terms of of diet is as well. You flick that is a is an issue we've done that we now try to remember things you just absolutely nothing seems to be working at it let us I would play both of us into a very very kind of depressed state and just a real catch and the doctors don't know the cause of it.

Where there is no because there's no discernible pattern. We have absolutely no idea, and in you been prayed for by people of faith, things like that RIAA's statement stay right there in our phone lines are jammed, but I think you'll agree this is important. Stay right there you want to touch on the other side of the break. I want to pray with you and get on his friend Ellen go back to all of your phone calls stay right there file line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the minor fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH dear again is Dr. Michael Brown. Thanks so much for joining us on 1-486-634-8784 you've got questions, we've got answers. Neil, the one thing I just want to encourage you and your wife to do is to say Lord no matter what we go through no matter what we experience to serve you and love you.

That's the one thing that that you can choose to do and and we are we are gonna honor you in the midst of this, no matter what that something that's important and it's a God. We pray for healing, but whatever you want to teach us to this where we can learn. However, we can grow. Help us to to do so again it's easier said than done.

That's why were you looking for God's grace in the midst of this, and obviously pray for healing and one of him before. If we pray with you. Have you ever read any of any books about suffering or even of the goodness of God in the midst of suffering, the bread I can remember the gentleman's name but he was even blocking a rushing prisoner gulags for many many decades back to me mid 1900s. I do know that exactly what you have not yet something from from the perspective of perhaps you and your wife can also be helped by reading Randy Alcorn's book is God's good faith in the midst of suffering and evil Randy Alcorn that I don't agree with his theology of healing. His view is much more hate God does is teach us things in the midst of our suffering results that he can do that with his will is to heal so we differ there, but I thought I found the book very, very helpful, pointing to the cross. Speaking of the experiences of others, helping us find redemption in the midst of the pain. So the name of the book. If God is good by Randy Alcorn. Again, I think you'll find it helpful and and then on your end. You and your wife to Seth's okay God brought us together with his servants would you love him and honor him no matter what, even if we feel completely paralyzed but by this right now and again I can imagine the devastation of of what your wife lives through the how to paralyze us things in the fear it brings in everything, but I want to pray and and NS by listening audience to pray for a miracle. For complete deliverance.

I don't believe this is a gift from a loving father. Whatever the cause, the physical cause other cause demonically whatever the cause, I believe, is something that that Jesus died to to prevention.

Removing his love for us and therefore we asked for it as long as we have rest we asked for healing and in the midst of the suffering we grow we learn to love God even more right so I just want to get our audience to pray right now so folks would you join me as we pray for Neil and his wife. Father, I bring this couple before you, you know, Lord. It's it's only a specific set of circumstances that we stop and pray, but certainly father in your compassion. I ask you to reach out. Lord I know if Jesus walked into that room right now. He would do with he did for everyone that he touch that was sick when he was in his role heal.

He would make security feel so asked for your touch.

Right now his wife are complete and total deliverance for the break every demonic stronghold for the correct universe is physically wrong for supernatural faith draws in her heart for joy to rise in the midst of her heart for faith enjoy the rise in the midst of Neil's heart. May they experience a super natural breakthrough and father in the midst of the suffering they've endured made the grow in grace and learn even more. View and growing your compassion to touch others complete deliverance and healing.

We pray we join together as one in Jesus name, amen. Hey Neil, keep in touch let us know what God is doing in your lives, 86634878840, let's go to TJ and Charlotte, North Carolina. Thanks for: the line of fire called Dr. Brown a question for you have been written out eight. Currently, Aaron noticed that they have translated the name of God as Yahweh real and the recent revision on Mac and 2011 affected not from 93,500 and among parents. Phone is there a possibility that we can ever use the name of the Lord our God in finding by using that name on what they do in HD FB considering that described in the Bible translators were so careful on account of that name so holy not to use it. That's a great question.

Interestingly, our engineer JJ and I were he was just asked me questions about that very same version about an hour and 1/2 ago so it's it's a great translation. I think it's one of the best modern translations that that we have an the name Yahweh occurs or or the consonants YHWH over 6000 times like 6300 times in the Hebrew Bible and why they initially use it 97 times now 500 certain times as based on the information you're giving. I'm not sure I don't know what the philosophy was they probably spell it out because I would think you just use it all the times every time. But no, I don't believe there is any possibility of using an event. In fact, it's quite the opposite. I would say that the non-pronunciation only comes later. The idea that you can pronounce the name. That was a scribal tradition that developed later and and it is probably existing and in Jesus day as well, but I don't see that is God's heart. Initially I just see that is great reverence for the name and hence not using a printed to take the name of the Lord in vain would either be to to swear falsely, by so I'm going to make some Olson use his name when I'm lying or to use it in conjunction with idolatrous worship, but to say that we become more familiar with the name because we find it more in the Bible. I think that's wonderful. Without 100% sure it is pronounced Yahweh, and certainly not Jehovah, but was the original pronunciation, Yahweh. I believe that's the best explanation that we have and therefore I'm actually pleased to see it to me. It's a good thing not a bad thing. I don't know why those cases. Not every case. But to me it's deftly a good thing not a bad thing and taking them Lord in vain does not mean becoming use to it but misusing it and abusing it okay yeah are. Not I really enjoyed the name of Yahweh at Baylor Christian in Frederick 1996 and I can honestly say I have never even heard the name Yahweh will maybe 2005, 2006, which is a shame by not. I do find comfort in that main thoughts wander clear no X excellent yes thank you for asking very important. Thank you 866-34-TRUTH, you know, one thing that I love about your calls you every so often there's a call. Someone has an antagonistic point. They want to make and their question is a bad question because there there trying to set up some point they will make but the questions you asked from so many different angles are questions that need to be asked.

That should be asked and I'm thrilled to be able to be here and answer them for you so you break you can hear the music will be right back and I'm going straight your call.

So stay right there. Don't go anywhere. Why would a 664-8788.

It's the line of fire with your host activist, author, international speaker and theologian Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution get into the line of fire now by calling 66343 here again is Dr. Michael Brown welcome welcome to the line of fire. You've got question God answers all it's going to be very interesting extremely interesting to see what transpires. What the latest breaking news.

Another led scandal with with Donald Trump. The latest WikiLeaks revelation with Hillary Clinton now news that the FBI is looking back into some of her emails and while does this constitute a breach in and of of security and should she have been indicted. Of course not saying those words, but big stuff happening every day.

It's easy to get so totally told of a focus totally focused on that we take a rush of GCS elections very important who you got agree that either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump get is going to be momentous for America.

Good, bad, both can argue with that. But let us be people of God in all of let us realize that our responsibility, our mandate remains the same and in my opinion. My study opinion if if Donald Trump is elected our mandate is exactly the same as if Ellicott was elected except you can expect to see me much more difficult. Under Hillary Clinton.

That's what I would say we so the same roles and calling the same things that God wants us to do.

However however, if the selected there's gonna be culpability in our hands if we helped electric to scare make it much more difficult for us to do. We are called to do 866-34-TRUTH 87884 a.

Make sure you go to asked Dr. Brown.org and check out my latest article why anonymous discernment ministries have no credibility.

Why anonymous discernment ministries have no credibility. You can read that at the asked Dr. Brown website also do a little Twitter poll and is just that it offers hundred 57 votes of that's all. But I asked when it comes to government corruption and media collusion. How do we compare to Russia, 30% said way better 50% said about the same 20% said even worse so 70% said either the same as Russia worse than Russia that tell you something first distrust of the media 866-34-TRUTH. Let's go to Travis in Greensboro. Welcome to the line of fire. Are you doing Dr. Blanca nearly yes I can. Okay I do want to be talking to Leah about (not like say�� Your show our every day that I possibly can and politeness to the Charlotte light. Questions that people have operated people asked and answered that you be up on a lot of times I agree with what you say all 100% not always there out listening to your show. Believe it will allow you make the statement that you would endorse Donald Trump and no I'm not endorsing among different but no no no, I'm not endorsing well what I meant you figured out point yeah yet so I noticed different in an endorsement. I'm sorry that Bert, but you said you would vote for him because of the rich point in being pro-abortion L object like you are pro-life and I believe that all lamps matter, but debating about it you all I heard you say that it's a lot about how all recognizable religious figures that are working with Donald drop and hopefully they are persuading him change his mind about some things that you say it but not know Donald Trump drilled hole eligible to make a statement. What you cannot bomb the S out up my point.

When you love something it's very hard for person to persuade you to get that thing about the debate recall feeling this is a race. So I understand what you're saying some pro-life vote for someone who you say city loves more and I was hoping to listen Christians is in it like this taking may be held good. Maybe she'll do a little no response rate questions for cleansing by the Expo line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice and more cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown got questions, got answers 86487884 so Travis still there yet. So the exact quote he said I love war in a certain way so I I'm I do appreciate I appreciate you bring a tour attention so number one I find many of Trump's quotes very troubling.

I find him to be erratic in certain ways.

I find him to be well in his behavior, his attitude is words give me deep cause for concern. No question. Which is why I've wrestled with things as long as I have, as far as his position on pro-life. He's convinced me that he stands there. No one has to convince them to do that now that he's convinced me that he will appoint right justices to the Supreme Court, which not only means of affecting abortion but also affecting religious liberty in a big, big way and I do know this that Hillary Clinton signed off on agrees with supports our treaty with Iran which now gives nuclear weapons to Iran. Plus we pay them over $1 billion. This is the world leader of supporting terrorism, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton have signed off in a few years they could potentially have nuclear weapons. Which is why trumps.

It's the worst deal ever.

When we get his whole phrase in context, not the way it's being played on on ads he made clear that he wouldn't rule out using nuclear weapons in certain situations, but he's unenthusiastic about it would be a weapon of last resort and he believes nuclear proliferation to be quote the biggest problem to me in the world. So I think is being mis-pretrade and that I have no problem Travis, with people saying they can't vote for him. I'm just saying please whatever you do don't push the button for Hillary Clinton. That's that like big argument and I understand why people have reservations about Donald Trump and I'm not here to be his apologist and failure your concerns are fair to me, sir. I find it Dr. Gramlich.

Some pro-life and I know).

This pro-abortion. You get extra credit entry object was certain she right probably hold that agenda will appoint you know where Marion get pregnant and abort the baby in the next four years. They couldn't help becoming the next four years of practice. What don't draw you get your men, women, children and women that are pregnant you kill them and update all none of the matter is way way way what does on the math is way way way off, but let me explain here, let's let's just type in Hiroshima. Okay, and let's just see how many how many were killed through that may be. Maybe Matt or somebody can find that data for me. Obviously horrific horrific act through nuclear threat atomic bomb but which were talking Travis resorted America alone, over 55 million over 55 million babies in the womb, slaughter them in the womb.

So you might say like I can vote for Trump but don't over Hillary because she's gonna push that further and she's gonna make it all but impossible for 20, 30, 40 years for the Supreme Court to overturn Roe V Wade, let's remember that winter term of American casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan is horrible since casualties are talking in the thousands, which are the bloodiest war we've ever participated in was the Civil War where we lost over half million Americans.

You take all of our wars combined them up and multiply them. They don't come anywhere near the babies killed by abortion, more than 1 million a year's of Hillary's and maybe have a slight spike in in in percentage maybe at 5 million babies we got participated in one more words and approaches that even when multiplied over and over and over 9/11 that's that's 3000 horrific losses of life just to get to the number babies aborted in a year.

You have to repeat 9/11 over and over and over and over and over and over again every single day anywhere near so appreciate that the thought that the comments way off. Don't vote for Hillary that the blood of the unborn there for sure was Donald Trump and in Hillary could well get us into a terrible war.

She blown Benghazi, Libya, inside, inside and out, supports the wrong treaty side liquor is a far greater threat for security, but I understand if you feel you can trust Donald Trump's president on the can argue with that and I'm not endorsing him of simply voting from that case, vote for somebody else or skip that part of the ballot.

Despite personal conviction of a thank you I appreciate the call 866-348-7884. Speaking of abortion. Let's go to right we won't. Let's go to Ernest in Charlotte North Carolina. Thanks for calling the line of fire yester on their ear. I call you from there applicant and I've been here below are now known bank or the people to Erica on her part. Who are down from Brockport. We are Christian we want to be wrong in a church we we should look at make you think the article about them or affect, Christian should not be: about adult Gay marriage, but I don't think think that only our Boston thing at the right moment to thank for that.

But mine if you are actually read a book of the Spirit on all I will give birth when it been our first break. You understand that all ballots talk about him, beginning on an out of development that banality of custom neglect ever go to every body out bring about what all out of doubly bad about you that if you are speaking find nobody among faculty speak shut up banality of the phenomenon you know is this something that we feel encouraged to you know I'm able bring bingo. The problem of why we are different.but� But what they are. But after yet so you have you have the abuse in some churches that they ignore Paul's words were. He said don't forbid speaking in tongues and they don't allow speaking in tongues and this it's not for today they upset you get the abuse on one side, then you have the abuse. On the other side where everybody speaks in tongues, in violation of biblical order. So what we need to do is enjoy the gift employ the gift celebrate the gift. Thank God for the gift but do it within biblical parameters so let's just say that we were all a praying we were all praying together in the service right.

The pastor was leading in prayer and he said hey I want everyone to agree with me and Percy are all praying, quietly in your seat right and Murphy maybe her native language in Africa was was French and maybe I come from Germany my native language is German. Someone else from his real name. That move languages is he was role-playing quietly in our native languages and some is leading from the pulpit. That to me is just like praying in tongues quietly and in other words, it's not for others to hear. It's just part of, you know you just hear kind of a mass prayer together and what you're hearing is coming from the microphone that I've got no problem with because again it's just like this that I use the same principles with a foreign language, but when it is a public message when it is from the pulpit. If there's no interpreter you don't use it so it be the same if you get up and deliver great message in French but I do understand that it does me no good. Even if you were blessed the same way if I got up and spoke in tongues for it for three minutes and no one interpreted okay then don't do it again of us. We have an interpreter or God gives you the gift of interpretation. So often work were too loose with that in our Pentecostal charismatic churches and we we just need to be more biblical and and remember the main reason is it confuses the outsiders.

If you do it without interpretation and it doesn't ratify those there if they don't understand so I I've been in a prayer meeting religious with other believers, and we've prayed in tongues you know like an hour to an just got in our hearts warned before the Lord submerges, each praying by ourselves and then we begin to lead in prayer. So then always you lead in an intelligible language on the plain English so everyone can agree understand and like I just start shouting in tongues for five minutes and we know we can understand so yet we we have the two extremes you know we have extrema for bidding at the extreme of letting it go wild. We just need to embrace it biblically correct government that are not prepared out and out about Opera never lit real fast. We have a break coming up. However, the great no go for now. Maybe if you if you look at the history of that the extent you on the back and/or dark, empty folder and I like white people. Like I like the art right now and back band. You understand that on let go from his home language what what you geographically about whatever you grew a bit and uncertain time. You know you became are all alarm you make out with something, eat it, was opposed to evangelical ME not give up at the at at the air mobile now the worldly understand that I say that the Bible just to see what understand responsive television is come up a lot and I want to get to some of the call so unresponsive that you decide to use keep us under radio there certain Charlotte, and in response to question. On the other side of the plate. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown you get my emails and want to return but do you get my emails but if not, sign up work. We got some very exciting news about our new book that that's and I wrote together which which is breaking the stronghold of food you will feel find it to be absolutely life-changing.

So if you don't if you're not on our email list. Just go to ask Dr. Brown.org*around the legacy right on the homepage E newsletter sign up and take a second part remail submit blue done so go there today all right. Trust me, you want to be our email list, you'll be the first to know about special resources and discounts and and get list of articles and videos and special announcements for me so good asked Dr. Brown.org and sign up for the EE newsletter, you should run on the homepage is put your email address and bangs click submit in your aunt okay so just to answer the question briefly about the color of the ancient Israelite skin or the color Jesus skin it's immaterial to me spiritually whether Jesus like African or Egyptian or Caucasian or Asian or Native American or what Moses or David look like that's that's immaterial to me okay as I can affect my relationship with God. Either way, but because everything understand the ancient Israelites and the Jewish people in Jesus day would've had Middle Eastern characteristics they they would have been closer to what say Egyptians look like today than they be to Africans say and in the rest of Africa. Like Nigerians, for example, my friend Craig Keener says I think that their skin color was probably in between that of an Italian and an Egyptian's a little darker European and Anadarko Middle Eastern somewhere in between. There is really not the ultimate issue that the ultimate issue is who Jesus is and who we are in relationship with God. I am in your fine ancient Egyptian inscriptions. We'll see of the Nubian slaves. These were these were Blacks from other parts of Africa and their skin color and feet physically different from the people of Egypt we can would be more Middle Eastern in their characteristics all right rough time for a few more calls, let's go for it Michael in Richmond, Virginia. Welcome to the line of fire. Yes hello my got good chocolate fear that I have a comment in a question, yes, that's right, my first comment is one of your previous callers who said that his wife had migraines regularly and the doctors currently located. I've had similar problems with my life. Early in our marriage and we we've done a lot of problem-solving so I wanted to get this out. Tell your people there.

Hopefully it will help them in our doctors for thousands idea I number one. Locate the cause point at where the pain is that a lot of times help you figure out what's causing it. There's many things that can cause it posture that posture can cause it frequently sitting and not not deathdealing properly. Posture can cause the iron deficiency can cause allergies can cause it. Repeated movement and because it and blood pressure to the silent killer which I've had to deal with all the with my wife is nerves sometimes nerves can be a really bad because of it, because whatever that people get all tensed up in their muscular neck get so worked and they can't figure out why they got a major migraine was probably coming from the muscles just screaming out. So which is a problem with my sister actually that's what comment do not even locate the bank locate the pain side. Now my question. My questions are simple and that it why didn't � and for believers after Jews resurrected from the grave. Yet we we have right now we live in the already and not yet sees what we live in a transition age we are seated in heavenly places. It was to live in this world. We are redeemed and yet we physically die. We have eternal life, and yet our bodies go to the grave. We are in the transition age. Jesus does his work in two phases, first dying and rising from the dead and then returning at the end of the age.

So right now is the transition age so death has been conquered and that it's back is been broken so to say were not bound by the fear of death.

We know to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord, we know the sting of it is taken away. That was wonderfully illustrated with by interview with Clouse Kugler who spent roughly 30 years with the file you the people in Erie and jot at your entire analysis in Papua New Guinea.

People that were completely primitive that we just discovered in the late 1970s and when immunity existed. Surveys like Stone Age tribes still still there and they they believed in an evil spirit. They did know there was a good spirit that only believes in an evil spirit and death was a horrific torment that they lived within him. He describes it in detail. And when they found out about Jesus and who he was and eternal life. The power of it was completely broken in their attitude towards it completely different.

So Jesus died in physically rose never die again.

We are in the transition age where, for example, think of sin we been completely redeemed from sin and yet we still have to struggle with it.

We start to say no to the flesh, and yes to the things of the spirit so that's the simple answer and that's why you can read Colossians 3 that were seated in heavenly places. But now we have to put to death the deeds of the body. So it's a very real struggle, but death has lost its sting.

We don't fear it and we have eternal life so you can kill the body that said that we go on living in the presence of the Lord.

And thanks for the practical advice. I'm glad you and your family had breakthroughs listen. I mentioned this earlier, but Nancy and I were talking about the new book, breaking the stronghold of food.

Nancy is an incredible communicator but she is a private person.

You must never speaks publicly. This is now remarried four years almost never speaks publicly there been times when we been at big meetings together and folks and insisted she come up and say something and literally will speak for 15 or 20 seconds Sam Donovan the people like wild weather forget those words went to get her to write the book with me and the hours that we spent working on it together and for her to clearly articulate her thoughts that she went over what she wrote again and again and again and again and again to sharpen it.

She only did it because we believe it is that important.

That's why we wrote the book, breaking the stronghold of food and I mentioned it now on the heels of the call because so many physical issues we struggle with are you diet not dieting but unhealthy eating. I have no idea the cause of of deals wife's migraines. He called in earlier. This is a look at all different things. We were praying and trusting God for healing, but I can tell you that my blood pressure was as high as 149 of 103 after a change my lifestyle. It averages
