That's 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown welcome welcome to the line of fire broadcast.

This is Michael Brown. As always a lot happening in the world around us. As always, we need to get our heads clear.

We need to get our perspective right.

We are not like the rest of the world. We do not panic like the rest of the world. We do not pull her hair out like the rest of the world. We we do not lose heart. Like the rest of the world, even if the world is going crazy around us. We look to the Lord.

We keep our bearings the word of God tells us that they will come that everything that can be shaken will be shaken and the board also says that the righteous will never be shaken Michael Brown so glad to be standing here together with you on the front lines. Here's number to call 866-34-TRUTH 866-34-TRUTH 784 a through this week were going to have some special guests joining us because there is something major and exciting that is taking place. The tree of life version of the Scriptures. The first ever messianic Jewish version complete fresh translation from Genesis to Revelation by a team of messianic Jewish and Christian scholars of the first project of its kind has now been taken over by one of the biggest Christian publishers in the world, Baker books, they are now working together with the tree of life team on not just distribution but producing new additions of this Bible and it it's it's an exciting major moment when a publisher of Baker stature embraces a translation like this only to be having some special guests on will be talking to us about these very things. The significance of this version but but here's 1610.

The answers are in the word. The answers are in the word whatever societal crisis we face whatever electoral crisis we face whenever family crisis we face whatever personal crisis we face whatever world crisis exists, the answer is found in the living word of the living God and we turn our hearts. There and set our hearts in peace before the living God. We will not be moved by fear. All right, there are things happening in the news that deserve comment the presidential campaigns continue to heat up. I've got some thoughts and insights on that there was a major meeting last week with conservative media leaders and Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg have a brand-new article about that and an article that got my attention over the weekend were a professing Christian woman claims that Jesus was the first transgendered man what yeah I've written about that as well and some fun interaction with my friend Dr. James wife. I put out a video why not a Calvinist. He put out a video. I am a Calvinist spot.

It does sparked a lot of interaction on Twitter so we been having some helpful theological traction there. But one major break in the story that the officer involved in the death of African-American Freddie great in Baltimore has been found innocent.

I know that this is going to be another major, major story that is played out for months to come I have no comment on at this point because I only know what you know in terms of general news. I have no detailed sources. I have not been able to thoroughly investigate things so I know many will want to weigh in on that and comment. As we have more information. I absolutely will do my best to provide any insights I can right now. Whatever is happening right or wrong, just or unjust to keep our heads and act like children of God.

God's heart is not responding in the flesh right here again is Dr. Michael Brown back to the word we go word of God living and active. The word of God. Sharper than any two-edged sword, word of God, which is a tree of life to those who take hold of it is written Proverbs.

The third chapter is chanted in the synagogues regular basis. My guest Dr. Jeffrey's life is a friend and colleague.

He is a professor. He is the project manager of the tree of life Bible facts. He serves as the University distinguished Prof. Bible injury studies. He's he's also been a cop and a pastor and then many of these things at the same time and a week we get to talk about some exciting news with the tree of life. Hey Jeff, great to have you on the broadcast today. Dr. Brown greatly repairable of all hate just just tell me about dear policeman be a pastor. Being a professor you've done that all of the same time through a good number of years. Is that right and center are working on. We thought you are good at radio interview at your wedding couple hours of all right what what what you do the police work.

Why you because I just a calling from God, I love you but got out Street. I love this thing called justice.

I like to know in advance the kingdom all I like the perfect grace made it wonderful. Then Sharon biblical faith vision to a lot of really great people and you once called guns and Moses was that developing your people. I hate to say what Jeff I'm not sure what's up with our phone connection that's if you can just check what's going on with that with Dr. Sykes. There we will we get that worked out guns and Moses was the detectives look at the five books of Moses saw all that other tiffs I talk about that but here's the here's what significant. Here's what significant Baker books, getting behind the tree of life version of the Bible means that millions of people that might not have been exposed to this translation will be explosive will will talk about that in a moment with Dr. Sipe, Jeff.

Hopefully we fix a connection problem so guns and Moses that was a detective looking at the five books of Moses. Yes well for looking for bearing the Margaret okay and how does it does it make our forefathers seen in need of grace or righteous in themselves ball a monster altogether what you mean by article because Buck and bring question need to be on file in the world. Rollover and the placement biblical economy for justice and the use of force, and I wanted to explore that John all right. Very interesting, very interesting.

All right, just the tree of life version. Why is this such an important project. Why is this unique in living history Bible translation boat. The Bible is a Jewish story from Genesis to Revelation. And not only was the text written by June. Thoughts come true in most cases, and about the Jews but many years all those that have been offering a compelling up their new English language or other languages haven't been particularly sensitized things Jewish. What's unique about this translation is those that worked on it were individuals of Jewish extract who have terminal degrees in religious studies and can offer telling of war for individuals of non-Jewish extract could've gotten terminal degrees in Jewish school. The first sensitized skillet so this is a telling of the literature that accentuates the host culture from which it emerged.

I and with Baker books now partnering to get this out.

How does that change things in terms of the scope and reach of this or what is it say in general about the translation. While I think the Bible is the greatest story ever told. I think the Jewish connection to it is the greatest story never told. And with Baker books, now a major evangelical publisher putting their moxie behind it and sending it out into the culture. It'll give us hearing this kind of story amongst those may be vaguely familiar with it, so I think it'll accelerate those in the culture been able to appreciate the Bible from a Jewish perspective and Baker really seems interested. They put out some beautiful additions are already and had order was 50 times greater sales from preorders over 50 times greater report dated and anticipated weeks ago, while heading for launching it from Jerusalem. Later on this week and I have to handle an airplane on Friday and get therefore, an event actually early next week. But even before the official release of that they've already begun. The second one so they must be pretty thrilled with that. Yes, my understanding yes and why wouldn't Gregory yet even long-term plans of the study Bible and things like that that that that you're interested in, so suggest let's let's talk here for for a moment. You on the streets as a cop. We are in ministry as a pastor you are educating on a seminary level.

Can you say dogmatically with me that the answers every life problem. Every crisis in society that there ultimately answers found in the word of God. We are principally exclusively as a police officer about solving problems on dealing with issues right but I think the issues, poor performances among themselves. The people living there with the police because of the court had an up or art and are you not believe that God can and will change it, irrespective of how far down and how horrible a male and one about where were in constant world crises are potential crises you've written and spoken about the times in which we live, in which we live in the various factors from Iran to Israel all that does the Bible speak with relevance to these world issues are to these nations today or is it just some antiquated religious books that were looking back to with some kind of nostalgia and are completely biblical American life ordered her iron girl.

I don't think that the Bible is out of step with the modern era of the Bible but an interesting job of giving voice to the kind of pressures and problems bootable Merck as we make our way through time and space of the coming of our Lord. Yeah. And as far as Christian with no Jewish background.

Picking up the tree of life version will will they be put off by lots of foreign terms and expressions will they find it a speaking with clarity and very user-friendly. One of the problem statement covers a very good friend of mine. I was with him, and rose from two weeks ago. Dr. David Stern tendered her translation was so loaded with people right here comes that the average bear in Yellowstone Park that wasn't already familiar with think he broke but have to struggle to get to and through the literature we were much more selective with the employment of the greatest in order to use of term and modernity to make it more reader friendly. We didn't want to overwhelm our people with greater sums but just enough to lend a sense to the literature that lets the reader know it's a story that belongs within Jewish culture. Yeah, we are refining great great reception to function gotten the tree of life version and up just an analysis of the more mature listeners for new supporters how they can get a copy of beautiful slimline tree of life Bible but Jeffrey just got one minute why why should folks get behind this particular ministry. The work that the word you hear the work that I've been doing over these years. Why should people stand with us, get behind this work full terms of the Bible. I'm glad that anybody read the Bible and any person. And you know the word of God go sport. Every language and all the Englishmen � with their flesh. That is to get Jewish hands and hearts back in the Jewish story that is the Bible. It's a unique, distinctive, and some people are called to get behind different levels and I'm glad they are yeah I just want you to get back on the streets patrolling and being an ambassador for the gospel. Your unique brother and friend and so glad to have you heading out the tree of a project.

God bless you man thanks once again, the blessed art friends.

That was Dr. Jeffrey Seitz. We've got an exciting new offer exit with extended last week someone to tell you about that in a moment we come back about the tree of life version and then major gathering of evangelicals could be 500 evangelicals a month from now to meet with Donald Trump talk about that we come back in the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice important cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown-lines now officially open 866-34-TRUTH 7884 of all let me tell you first about how to get a copy of the new tree of life version of there's a beautiful slimline addition that just came out. In fact I got it I thought it was a much much more expensive Bible on. Honestly when when Baker sent me a copy of it is a beautiful slimline addition of the tree of life version of the Bible when you get it this week were paying the postage and giving you a free DVD as well. Alright so little website asked Dr. Brown Arguello.

If you haven't checked our lives that we have completely revamped it or find it massively more user-friendly and I friendly so go to asked Dr. Brown, Dori SK dear Brown, the run in the home page click on the special resource banner order as many copies as you like.

You just heard from Dr. Jeff's life that the preorders were 55 zero times greater when Baker was expecting and they have to go to a second printing before it has even been officially released. Yeah.

Amazing. I'm amazed to hear that I'm blessed. Okay evangelicals and Donald Trump.

Where should we be right now off obviously were not some type of body where there is one ahead. The head evangelical telling every evangelical how to vote obvious and it's not you don't have that with Catholic Church or any Protestant denomination either.

But how should we. How should we relate how should we relate to the question of evangelicals getting behind Donald Trump. There's can be a major meeting if if I was gonna be invited. I could be there anyway because I'm scheduled to be in Australia there is going to be a major meeting with as many as 500 evangelicals put in by Tony Perkins who was an endorser to cruise by the way, to meet with Donald Trump and to ask him serious questions wears a stand on this when Stennis I do not believe there going to be quizzing him in his knowledge of the Bible and and and all that would mean even if they did was how much prep did he have meeting with people that told of things not I don't believe that's the purpose of it. Knowing strata may commence with theologian that ought not that I know of no one's trying to claim that he's this deeply devoted Christian with deep Christian roots or I don't. I don't know any of these evangelicals that would be coming at it from that angle, but rather if elected, what kind of president would you be where you stand. The religious liberties how important it is going to be to hate you had an opportunity to take a stand with North Carolina and and you didn't initially that's a concern. Oh you give give Alyssa Supreme Court justices, but would that be modified so on and so forth.

Okay II think it's a great idea. I am glad that it's happening. I am glad that people, even those that may have been in the never Trump campaign are willing to look further at this, and probe further and want to be responsible with their vote there saying we can't vote for Hillary or Bernie because of their radical stance adjuster anti-Christian many ways and at the Bible in many ways and I can't speak for other people would be there.

Presumably that's what the majority would dear. The vast majority they feel responsible to devote today not vote today vote third-party today to say hey anyone but Hillary was the mentality I think it's great that they are doing this.

My concern would be how do we know and I'm not pooh-poohing this.

I think it's great that it's being done. I think it needs to be done.

I think it's excellent that so many will be meeting again. My concern would be how do we know that if elected, the Donald Trump would hold to these things, how deeply ingrained are they inside of him. Is this just another example of evangelicals getting duped, this is happened to us before and I don't even mean that people are lying upfront. They may even sincerely believe these things then once they get into office they shift and my larger concern would be what type of person with Donald Trump. The if elected, what type of man, would he be what type of leader.

Would he be what type of president, would he be what type of character would he exude, how would that help or hurt the United States of American.

Those are deeper questions and I am not campaigning is a never Trump are okay. I am not campaigning is a never Trump that is not my goal during the primaries, I was outspokenly clear earlier on when Sen. Cruz and others were still running and there were other options. I raise my concerns loud and clear about a Trump presidency and said that we have far better options. We don't have those options. Also, he thought he was the best option for the start it's front will divide with you over that, but going forward with my posture and I'm actually a friendly debate with my friend Sue Roth about this later in the week.

Later in the broadcast later in the week because he wants to encourage believers to actively look at voting for Donald Trump and he knows I have reservations, but ought my goal is not to discourage anyone from voting. I am not an adamant never Trump are labeling don't vote. I raise my concerns during the primaries. I made it clear I'm raising these during the primaries and that the question is now which direction do we go David French, who is a never Trump are and one of the most articulate voices on Internet that I see attorney Debbie French national review has been very outspoken and and he says listen as Trump was winning. As you know others, Republicans, conservatives, people looking at it. Trump was winning their wedding. Consequently, we learn much. We learn that there much vaunted conservatism was a mere means to an end. In other words, a lot of people who were outspokenly against Trump for various reasons and saying he would be a detriment to the larger conservative cause or detriment to the Republican Party. Now that his victory is inevitable. Well then let's get behind and he says differences virtually every character defect dried logical blind spot they condemned in others they overlooked or even justified in Trump that he has very very strong points of these made others are standing with him as I said many times is not a personal issue with me is not a pride issue. My heart is wide open to look at things as we get closer to the fall and make a wise decision about my vote whether to counter daughter mean anything in the electrical CM and could be a landslide. Elaine, who knows what the rules can be happening, fall but just want to say that I am not making this a hill to die on nominal. I'm simply raise the concerns I had and hoping that these evangelical leaders will have wisdom if there to turn around and speak to perhaps several million people that they represent, will they have wisdom in that meeting will they ask the right questions will God give them discernment will God touch Donald Trump along the way subsidy greatest prayer Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton Prince as a guy would radically touch them.

No no no you listen to this broadcast for with 30 seconds know the answer is an emphatic no to all those were talking about Jesus so radically changing us that we going change your world were talking about overcoming evil with good. Overcoming hatred with love overcoming lies with truth, overcoming the forces of darkness with the power of God's light. Being an influence for righteousness being an influence for mercy begin influence for justice.

I'm at the grocery store with my regularity just because of the pickets about fruit in a salad. On the way home because we got a lot of fresh through the house. Maybe the way home after taking your stuff and get the saw how often see the same people you know checking out a different things and I always want to go out of my way to smile, not to put on us not to put on an act, but to be a Jesus person to see how they're doing to talk to them by name, and it should be delivered. Of time, along with the message that we break it you can always preach you cantons out every situation where you can just take out your Bible and preach to somebody right but it should be. That along with the message of the gospel that they hear the words that they see it in our lives and in that parents your kids are old enough and in your sharing your testimony and how Jesus is change your life and the grace that you walk in and the piece that you walk in your kids should be able to say that's true. That's my mom that's my dad yeah change laws were so changed the gone change the world around us. All right right that I care on the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice of more cultural and spiritual revolution.

Here again is Dr. Michael Brown.

Have you ever had a problem.

Have you ever had a problem with one of your posts on Facebook or twitter being censored being removed because it had strong biblical content on the social issue that people found it offensive that you were told it violated the community guidelines have you had that happen. Facebook, Twitter are famously liberal and other private companies. They can do with they want. They are famously liberal. They have crackdown at different times on those with dissenting views but interestingly went at and we've experienced this firsthand with our Facebook page that we had in the past with my book increasing happen to America. We had problems when the folks began to complain about the site either gay activists or their allies and it was shut down temporarily.

We were were blocked for me on Facebook. The crew of the crater of the page myself and what was going on and you can't get stonewalled. I mean interesting words user but you can't get stonewalled and you don't have access in real right now her Facebook page has RS Dr. Brown Facebook page is about 375,000 fans and we communicate with our Facebook listeners on a regular basis, often through the day I posted an article boom it's there some staffing reports of the radio boom. It's there for the video out boom. We let people know immediately it's there and we can literally reach millions and millions reach 20 3040 50 million people through Facebook in a week off and we do so getting shut down or getting blocked is very negative. Well, it so happened that I was mentioning this on the radio and someone called in and said hey I was at National religious broadcasters. Marais met you.

We talk there and a woman from Facebook in presentations of your revenue issue unless contact and he then sent the email address and I reach out to this individual. And she was very helpful and she reviewed things and said okay. You should been blocked. That was a mistake because I select if if this file is community guidelines then in all were doing is having a civil discussion about the Bible and homosexuality on the citrine and cultured seven civil discussion it's overdoing and we get blocked for that. What about all the sites that I just posted on the edited take long to just put in a few things with Jesus and profanity were Chris Jennifer Fattah, whatever it just the most horrific site you could ever imagine the most terrific anti-Jesus anti-Christian anti-Bible folder sites and all those are out there, and those did not violate community standards all the different pages will it's happened maybe three or four times when something's been removed. One of her post has been removed and almost always, it's either had to do with LGBT issues always radical Islam and what happens is enough people protest that the thing then gets taken down and were told were in violation of the warrantor can access the site for 24 hours wherever it is and each time when reaching out. It's ultimately got reinstated normally with an apology. I said appreciate the apology, but that was really detrimental and hurtful and boat and we got all the protection on the site.

The page that we can so APPRECIATE them working with us and obviously that billions of people on there and I'm sure the large staff, but these things can happen.

Okay, the fact of the matter is that Facebook has openly proudly partnered with LGBT activists to be sure that Facebook is in compliance with those goals. Which would mean that by definition someone like me would be branded a bigot or homophobe, or transfer old or worse. Now again, Facebook is trying to do with they believe is right.

But there very much on the wrong side of these issues. There certainly anything but neutral and I've had friends whose pages were shut down for these very reasons and then you look at the egregious pages in the opposite direction letter. The open and honest offer anything.

How can that be have an ID it's it's almost like your restaurant scores a 92 on the the health and sanitary code etiquette shut down and the four restaurants around you would score a 48 are all open is a subset right there subset right there is a and is really Grimshaw to Dean that did an experiment on Facebook, they had to pages they want simultaneously stop Israelis that was in an Arabic and stop Palestinians that was in Heber and a posted.

Then they went further than the one further than the one further enters a more strident and and you can even see engaging in hate speech and the Israeli page. The one in Heber was shut down.

Stop Palestinians were shut down when an Arabic stop Israelis is not stuck and several days later when Facebook civil actually was a mistake throughout the dam is not impressed with the apology so recently a formal worker or more with with Facebook said there's a new saying trending news that Facebook has and that it is is anti-conservative is pro-liberal and Facebook is claiming neutrality private business again to do whatever he wants to do, but it's claiming neutrality is anything but neutral claiming neutrality with anything but neutral and they modify things that the liberal stories get to the top of the conservative stories don't show up while Mark Zuckerberg heard about this that the head of Facebook and multibillionaire and was upset to hear it, so there's no truth to it. This is not who we are. In other words, he does not want to have a political identity wants to be perceived as neutral as a social media and new site for the whole world. That's his goal so he called in a number of conservative leaders to meet together and discuss the issues. First, let's listen to Glenn Beck. This is on his radio show and he's been criticized for forming he's been criticized for this overly positive view of Mark Zuckerberg and just criticizing the conservatives like book went on into the censorship business innovation and be here, thing, and then into one critic said it was almost as if he was auditioning to be more cigarettes manservant but this is what Glenn Beck had to say about this clip number one they didn't use this exact language but basically they were talking about diversity training and ice. I just saw on a report from somebody else that was reporting about diversity training because, and I think about that. That's worse on the left uses.

They didn't use the language but here's what it was, why don't you bring us in and we can do classes over a six-month period and train all of your staff about conservatives taken over private business, telling them what the right that's that's diversity training that sensitivity training right. Obviously we as conservatives are not supposed to be doing that this would criticize the liberals for doing the wrong way and wrong. Now I think Mike Schubert does need to be educated about the other side of the issue and he was asked about one gentleman. Do you have young conservatives working with youth face everybody in your organization. Share your mindset is overwhelmingly a place he does at some to think about.

I agree that's important and I commend him for being open. I think Rush Limbaugh has it right when he says that the world in which Zuckerberg lives that he thinks that is the world as I write in my article, which you can read by going to start writing a skate year-round organ checking out our latest article of I believe that he sincerely means this to do what's right but doesn't understand.

There many other issues is missing. For example, of his regular glad game is nuance against defamation, which I think then the game was an alliance against disagreement. They have a list of over 100 conservative political commentators including 8/100 saying to the major networks don't have these people on your on your shows to talk about galas ministries family for those Things because they are militant extreme anti-LGBT ghettos on the list just me is on the list. Dr. Ben Carson River Franklin Graham.

These are the kind of people that Gladys and don't have on your networks, it glad has worked with Facebook to fashion their policies so Mark Zuckerberg doesn't get is that there this is this is not the only way to look at righteous causes. If you want to be neutral and you're not working with glad and these other organizations listening to them and you listen to our side and you say okay let's just be sensitive to all sides or just everybody has added but no, you're not gonna block the one site and not the other in claim neutrality media research Center Pres. Brent Bowes on FOXBusiness network a caboodle coast-to-coast had this to say about the meeting I left with AAR encouraged because I think that they fully understand there's a problem. I explained from our standpoint between the media research Center and for America. My other organization we have some 19 million Facebook fans that we I think were the biggest other and we never had a problem but there's too much smoke. Tutus dismiss either that the lack of a but there is a problem within Facebook and I think there is a serious determination on the part of Mark Zuckerberg on down to fixes for the truthful reason that one is a direct threat to his business model if if if if there's an erosion of trust and secondly because I think this was his vision perform for Facebook. Yes, he's a left-winger you throw left-wingers, but he wanted a marketplace yet seems to be the case number.

The Expo line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown into the line of fire now by calling 866-34-TRUTH here again is Dr. Michael Brown listen friends. I am all for civil dialogue and interaction. In fact, in fact, when I teach apologetics the defense of the faith. I lay out two keys for effective apologetics. If we are to do apologetics effectively than there are two essentials number one you must rightly understand the other person's objection, request. In other words many times we respond to something without really understanding with the person say we think we understand the problem there objection and we often passage of like ships in the night. You can even happen in the public debate where each side is missing the other and we do it in interpersonal communication. Forget debates. Forget apologetics, we do it right within the same home sometimes and and I've had people call and ask a question and I respond and I thought okay I probably gave them a more thorough answer than they were waiting for the just listen patiently. I mean went on for three or four minutes for the detailed answer and they said no no no to some of the meds I meant this, like all I misunderstood your question so first thing can understand the question correct the objection.

The problem the issue, how can you be assured that you're doing simple. You repeated back to the person in your own words so do I understand that your issue is this, and you repeated back in your own words, if they are satisfied with it good you succeeded yet. That's my issue and husbands, wives, roommates, siblings, can I tell you it's it's a great thing to do interpersonally that if there's a disagreement or some of the subset rather than just defending your point being proud of being stubborn or being offended. Sometimes it's good to say okay you already understand that you're upset because of this cosmetic testimony get there.

All it sounds like I didn't know that I was unaware. I'm so sorry it's fixed.

Second point is you must understand and feel the weight of the objection with the press are that the question of the issue when someone says been struggling with for three years since my child died in a how could I could there be a God who is good. Let my child only to be prayed for months. We prayed baby cry. We prayed and still lost her in any sickle had with such theological questions easy to S. Nono, you know, Kenneth. You log in Scripture, you know you don't understand the weight and the pain. So how can. I've never lost a child. That's when you ask God for an empathetic heart. That's when you ask God for insight that you yes the person tell me to move with this loss felt like tell me what happened. She prayed to tell me what your thoughts were about God so you can understand from their viewpoint, then you can begin to respond. So one thing I advocate is doing her best to understand the other position now as much as my critics will call me a bigoted homophobe transfer old hater not see Caliban ISIS Hitler, you name it, I've been called it. Maybe last week. Yet, all the time you trust me to be shocked but that violence is unless a martyr because this sense of persecution complex of just talking about realities here and it's the comes with the turf.

It's fine but I can assure you that the same critics will have to acknowledge that I could present their viewpoint clearly and even in a compelling way to get you to think about their side because I've chewed on it and I've listen to it and I've wrestled with that I wept over so what I'm asking for the Mark Zuckerberg's of this world is understand our viewpoint. Even if you embrace it because I was on embrace.

These are the points even if you don't embrace it, even if ideologically run the other side of the fence. Can you see her viewpoint. Can you see her point of view. Can you understand why we hold to this is that okay in the here so I differ with it, but okay. That way you can be neutral or at least have a better chance of being neutral. You take a group like glad galas reliance against disagreement as I've nicknamed them on their list. This is as of yesterday on their list of people to be blacklisted by the media when it comes to marriage, family issues, things MD with LGBT issues. This just a sampling of over 100 Dr. Ben Carson Rev. Franklin Graham CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, foxtrot don't have him on your talk about the gays in the military. If you talk about gay adoption of your talk about marriage be the union of humanity. Nono note don't don't have them on Franklin Graham Ben Carson Ryan Anderson Dr. financing of the heritage foundation don't have him Jim Daly a Focus on the Family don't have him about Princeton Prof. Robert George, a brilliant professor highly respected law professor about Joy Perkins of the family research Council.

How about one of the top Hispanic leaders in the nation.

Dr. Sam Rodriguez, how about Southern Baptist leaders like Al Mohler and Richard land, conservative journalists like Eric Erickson, Todd Starnes and Catholic leaders like Bill Donahue and Jennifer Roback Morse on the list and people like me and others. This is what you call censorship. This is what you call shutting off the free exchange of ideas, a II open these four lines all the time until critics call it and try to have guests on to debate me on very small social cultural issues, but very few takers that we have. I do that every day the week of the people willing to join me. Let's have a civil discussion and then if if you don't agree with these positions you got folks like Atty. Gen. Loretta Lynch demonizing all of us were just like those who are pro-segregation and pro-Jim Crow laws.

What a bunch of hogwash was distressing is I'm now seeing this literally on a daily basis.

Did you hear that daily basis I am and this is what I'm seeing that's being sent to me via social media. One guy 78-year-old mother goes walking into a bathroom and there is a management dressed as a man, a man in the bathroom. 78-year-old mother goes in there. That was two days ago.

Yesterday while my colleagues in our ministry school. His daughter goes into the planet fitness locker room and there is a man dressed as a man standing there and in the planet fitness locker and she walked right out. This is were doing without Dan. I and and to have the audacity to compare this with was just like the new civil rights movement is no such thing read my article on five reasons why transgender is not the new black so these are issues were facing these riches now Facebook is looking at and hopefully Mark Zuckerberg will bring on others from a different ideological viewpoint who will help him to see more clearly so that Facebook can be a neutral media outlet and that many of us don't have to wonder about what's coming next and and other. It is this supposed to get too much negative criticism and be shut down. Even though it's a fair post for civil discussion. I friends.

Another reminder we are extending the special offer with this beautiful slimline addition of the tree of life Bible with a free DVD go to my website*ground the Lord asked Casey Brown double-click on this special resource offer letter on the homepage. My bottom line today. We must we must function as salt and light otherwise society collapsed turmoil in America turmoil in nations. When we look to the living word of the living God'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 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. I want to encourage you to try this experiment I ready this is Michael Brown welcome welcome to the line of fire broadcast your voice of moral sanity and spiritual clarity in the midst of a society in chaos in the church. All too often in compromise. I want to encourage you to do this experiment won't take too long but you do need to be in a quiet place and you do need to be undistracted while you do it right. His rigid you take out your Bible. Preferably a print Bible this it is no possibility of being distracted with something on your phone but whatever form of it.

You have take out your Bible when you read from most regular and open to Psalm 119. Now, if you're able to get on your knees when you do this all the better, so here's what you did great you got Psalm 119 open view.

Get down on your knees if you're able to and you read it out loud, you read it out loud and as you read it you asked the question can I genuinely say these words can I genuinely say these words or do I feel like a hypocrite, insane. Now I've done this a few times over the course of my 44+ years in the Lord, and there have been times when I've done it when I've had to confess to the Lord.

I feel like a hypocrite.

He civil what you mean someone 19 is the greatest Psalm about the word in the Bible.

Psalm 119. It is this innocence and in microcosm Psalm 119 has what is it hundred 72 verses and it is 8 foot for every letter of the Hebrew alphabet, so the all of the the opening letter eight verses that begin with that debate. The second letter eight verses that begin with that, all the way through and it is extolling the word of God is. It is praising the word of God, but not just that it is speaking of our love for the word of God one verse that always comes to mind. The though the law of the Lord is teaching the Lord is more precious to me than thousands of pieces of silver and gold thousands of pieces of silver and gold I want to encourage you to read that out loud all of Psalm 119 and as you're reading it to ask yourself is this really how I feel. Is this really honestly how I feel about the word or do I feel hypocritical.

You hundred 76 versus 4 July feel hypocritical, as I'm reading it and if you do, don't be condemned to say God would you renew a passion in my heart for your word God would you renew in my heart a love for your word God, would you give me a greater desire and hunger and thirst for your word and the thing that's amazing is that you spend more time reading the word as you spend more time meditating on the word that your love for the word will only increase and abound and intensify and you'll find yourself saying, sweeter than honey, sweeter and sweeter than the sweetest thing I know is you were your your statutes your choose a more desirable to me than anything in this world so to do the test.

Do the test. Psalm 119, we will be looking at a number of things about the word of God and trace exciting analysis of the tree of life version and putting us back to the word whatever is happening in the world around us back to the filename 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 thank you for joining us on a fiery is number to call so major news reported in the last hour of Baker books, one of the largest Christian publishers in the world for the most respected Christian publishers has embraced the tree of life version of the Bible unique translation with a team of messianic Jewish and Christian scholars came together for the first time to produce a complete new translation of the Bible as a team with messianic sensitivities, messianic Jewish sensitivities and is true to the roots of the Scriptures and the roots of our faith. Dr. Jeff siphon the first hour told me that the preorders for the new edition put out by Baker were 55 zero 50 times more than expected so they had to go to a second printing before was even released and I want to talk of, about the significance of this new Bible is ultimately everything that we need in terms of wisdom is found in the word of God how to live, how to please God. How to make an impact in this world is found in the word my guest a dear friend. I was just with him. Recording TV shows in Phoenix is Jonathan Burness. You've seen him on TV. He is the president CEO of Jewish voice ministries international you seen the Jewish voice broadcast, which airs around the world. And Jonathan has had the privilege of preaching the good news to hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of thousands of Jewish people face-to-face around the world to talk about the tree of life version today. Jonathan great to have you my show. This time might break the Buick.

Thanks for having me. So Jonathan why is this project so important, why are you personally involved in the tree of life version by common involved with the tree of life because as importantly as the contents of the Bible belt, saving a great translation. I believe it prophetic and it because it represents the collective work of a messianic Jewish movement.

In other words, Jewish people who have come to believe that Jesus or we come by people name Yeshua is our promised Messiah. And yet we understand that he is be fulfillment of the messianic prophecies given through our profit and we haven't converted to Christianity. In this movement, which began in the in the first century because of all all followers of Yeshua world through baited out of history until the restoration of Jerusalem in 1957, and since that time in the last 40 years there has been a revival of the messianic Jewish movement Jewish believers in Jesus and this Bible represent the collective work of the restored messianic Jewish community and I think that's prophetic. I really do that so many of now gather together and put at and joined in this effort are contributing their gifts and talents to make this Bible happen. I spoke very exciting, are not in the content but in in the prophetic aspect of who made this happen is that's that's a great perspective to put on a Jonathan in your eyewitness to an amazing work to God's done among the Jewish people in the Soviet Union in Latin America and Africa.

What if you seen with your own eyes in terms of this work of Jewish regathering.

But thanks for asking that question. First of all, in the 90 Mike I had the privilege of traveling to Russia.

Beginning in 1990. In fact, admit Jewish people throughout the former Soviet Union that were open to the gospel and responded to the message of Yeshua in 1993 that expanded into international festivals of Jewish music in advance. We actually filled first music called 4000 feet plus means the calls, sport complexes and then later in the mid-90s football stadium with predominantly Jewish people on top about 75% of of the population filling a football stadium Jewish hearing and responding to the gospel mechanically how many were born again, but I can tell you that I personally thought tens of thousands of Jewish people stand or come forward and alter calls and pray with me. Many of them with tears streaming down their eyes. We now have a messianic Jewish congregation throughout the former Soviet Union are our ministry. Jewish voices been working now predominantly in Ethiopia among the beta Israel and Zimbabwe among the limbic community and we believe these are Drew's that were scattered to the four corners of the earth during the different diasporas 70 A.D. and then again that later with the Spanish Inquisition. You saw Jewish people are that were forcefully Spain and later Portugal and wandering throughout Europe and they are now being restored to two Israel to the land of Israel over million Russian-speaking Jews over hundred 30,000 Ethiopian Jews living in Israel but Mike along with that physical regathering is the spiritual restoration of Jewish people finding the Messiah and there's very likely more Jews who believe in Jesus today than any time, for the first century we are staying at the virtual revival of Israel before our very eyes that Bible prophecy being built yeah and and again the production of this translation now for the messianic Jewish movement partnering with Christian scholars with confused training and things like that they they are. It is a prophetic sign in its its part of this larger picture and just go back to Africa for moment, Jonathan the in any of these groups that claim to have Jewish roots or history of, and some of and Sabbath observant practice circumcision and said were Jews, even though it's brought a lot of persecution on Heather Ben-Ami DNA test anything like this that point in this direction. In fact, there has been DNA testing be Ethiopian Jews have many of them tested positive, not only for Jewish heritage but that a priestly Jane which is really a scientific That was done to compare known: name from the astronaut in the Arctic and among the limber. 70% of those impacted actually had three priestly Jane: Jean and they they will. I believe in the future be accepted as written as immigrants to Israel.

So yeah DNA testing is is proving the fact that Jewish people that were scattered throughout the world are in fact being recovered now that identity is being recovered.

Amazing. Just just just amazing and again.

Somehow the Lord's position to be in the front lines of all of these different things and to reckon, to recognize this is all part of God's perfect plan coming to pass along with the production of this Bible that would've been kind of an unheard-of thing because of not even having a clearly defined messianic Jewish movement in decades past. It is all quite remarkable.

This is seen to have supernatural favor on it to this project with with the release of the Bible I think it does. We found great great response from Christians that water television program, many of them understand that Romans 1125.

It is in process of being built that the blindness is coming off of the eyes of the Jewish people that Romans 11 25,000 blindness in part it happened Israel but until the fullness of the Gentiles comes in and I believe there's a fullness I don't believe it's phone number Mike person I believe.

Believe it all meant that the fullness of time. It's a fullness of identity at the fullness of power and I believe this translation somehow ties into the abyss. Of time that Paul speaks about in Romans 1125 we got a better response to this, you and I were some of the very first to offer this in its earliest form out now Baker's putting out these gorgeous additions in an attractively attractively priced is as well, but you and I really were some of the very first to get it out and and this is been maybe the most popular thing we've ever offered. This was tremendous responses from folks so appreciate your partnership. By the way John out.

I've done the same thing that you've done done interviews for my car because I was unaware I could do it by the hopefully not no accidents and no GPS joining assay I settled. I called over to do what I'm getting Arab crap I'm up by Bob New York this week that but I really want to be on with you next time I'll try to be a landline. None of the sets are just not I've done it before and try to try to think okay this get her that I can but that's that's that's a live radio hate one question got 30 seconds.

We are asking for, especially to stand with with our ministry would ask Dr. Brown in the work that we're doing about which you share more detail what you have two more minutes to stay on Melissa Jeff to run absolutely all right state stay right there and outcome. I could just my asked Jonathan one question about the ministry work that were doing.

He's an honor and esteem friend and I will let him get on his way to to take care of his mom will be right back. Asked Dr. Brown.org if you want to find out how you can get this brand-new beautiful slimline addition of the tree of life version of the Bible Aztec around the front right on the homepage for plan by the Expo line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown your voice and more cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown.

My dear friend Jonathan Burness John I've known each other for role 30 years administered when he was leading a messianic variation in upstate New York and then watched as God has given them a message and a voice around the world and watched as God is used in amazing ways. With Jewish harvest around the world and now we're partnering together to help the whole world know about the tree of life version of the Scriptures is now being distributed by Baker books so Jonathan appreciate you be on the road taking another minute to be with me in the next few weeks were going to be giving the listener some great opportunities to partner together with us. I know that you appreciate the ministry work to cause called me to do without one. If you could just take a minute and tell our listeners why you believe that it's important that they do stand with this ministry. The cause called me to do it would be a pleasure and honor Mike. I we've known each other's you just said about three decades and I have watched you in the last 30 years being raised up by God as a boy that is spoken through prophetic proof first tour messianic Jewish movement to stay on track challenging Jewish people to believe in their own Scriptures in their own Messiah Yeshua Jesus debating rabbis coldly it in this question of whether Jesus is our promised Messiah and that also step into this incredible battle for the biblical values of our nation, and I believe God has handpicked you as a revolutionary spiritual revolutionary to raise up an army that in and I believe it's the last days to Mike. That's my personal belief is I look at Scriptures and look at the world around us and II think there's very few people you have unique calling and voice to stand up for biblical values and to raise up an army that will that will speak for the word of God and I watched it happen like I've seen the fruit in order to continue to support your letter to everyone listening to get behind this ministry and this man in a tangible way. Whatever you can do because it takes money to him, took two trips to the pay for these but these radio bills and other expenses but this is a prophetic voice that God has raised up for this power, so I'm firmly behind you Mike.

I hope others will join the rallying cry and then do support your thank you Jonathan for the very kind words and yes, thanks for the partnership Jewish voice you've been a great blessing to us over the years so you can count on us in the days that men hate God bless you. Have an awesome time with your mom's can be amazing to see what God does with the tree of life version. Thanks again dear brother, all right.

What a joy to ask to speak with Jonathan and we just had some great hangout time together in Phoenix when I was on his TV show last week. In fact, those shows that the recorded three shows together that should air when is it about two weeks from now for about two weeks from now I 1 Great Way that you can stand with assistant to get your copy of the tree of life Bible we've got it with a special offer. You get a free DVD as well and again no hype on this. They sent me that the new additions that they just put out Baker and this is beautiful slimline I thought was this may expensive Bible discussants. It's so nicely put together and I was amazed at the price so get yourself a copy will also send you a free DVD and paying the postage. When you do you do that on the website ask Dr. Brown ask ADR Brown.org you see it right on the homepage of the special resource banner and you'll be blessed by the translation and thankfully it's it's beautifully produced as well last our last hour I mentioned an article my newest article about Facebook Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg asking the question, is he a well intended liberal with a massive blind spot. In other words, he wants to be neutral. He does not want Facebook to political identity, but he's surrounded by people, especially from his generation who share the same worldview and ideologies of because of which, it's hard not to have a strong bias. So for example if if you lived in the days of's of the.

The Civil War and you said I want to maintain neutrality that would've been almost impossible to do. You have no voice at all. If you want to be neutral because the site had to be taken and in many issues today.

Sides are taken, and each side looks at the other is the guilty party. So the pro-life movement were passionate we are. We are absolutely passionate for life.

We are absently passionate for the life of the unborn and for the well-being of the mother for the future of the child in this world and yet and we look at those remote and pro-abortion like we would've looked at slave traders summing that that that you are standing for the terminating of the life of the unborn in the mother's womb, and then the.

The pro-abortion movement in the looks at us as these Christian terrorists that are shooting abortion doctors of Chris completely caricatured view of an and ridiculous you but what's the point of view.

So I will be neutral on the abortion issue or was it look like with it look like I will be neutral on major cultural issues. What's it look like if you're convinced that the cultural issues are minute was black and white than I could be neutral because you think you're taking the right side and that's kind of the environment in which Mark Zuckerberg's operated so that many with biblical conservative values are looked at as if we were the slave traders know the whole world and that sense is turned upside down, but I believe he wants to do what's right. I believe he wants to do what's right and I just noticed this on Twitter going to break eye I saw an email come in. If someone uses profanity on Twitter there communicating with me these per family would just lock them if their abusive and ugly in all attacks and threats.

We just lock them, but I happened to notice one.

One new guy that was going after me and the the name that he operated under was a death threat against theistic believers. So, I thought you know what I'm in a report. This is abusive and that check this out. I just got a note from twitter that they remove the account. They found it abusive. You can be neutral and say okay if anyone crosses certain lines you get blocked.

Whoever you are, whatever size you want. If you cross certain lines.

Twitter could say were all atheist. But if you cross a line calling for the death of theist your blocked just like if you cross like over the death of atheist your blocked and you can say within these parameters have added have your different views. That's that's the challenging saying what is denigrating and demeaning and violence provoking certain things very clear of the things they were just expressing our different views passionately but I do believe that these different social media groups if they're going to remain effective viable growing genuine platforms there really going to have to be diverse in a way that's different than they think because the contemporary lexicon diversity means my way or the highway.

Specifically, the LGBT activist way or the highway and tolerance means being intolerant of all views outside their own and being inclusive means exclusive to all competing contrary views can they do it. I hope so. We shall see what right back. 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 want to fire.

This is your only voice more cultural and spiritual revolution. You know it's one of these things friends that finally people understand why we have been raising issues that we have been raising for so many years why we are addressing things that we have been addressing why folks need to take a stand because were one of those. Enough is enough places in our society is my delight, my joy to be your voice of moral sanity and spiritual clarity in the midst of the chaos. So the other day I am coming home. We are renting a townhouse at the moment and we moved in the next. Ren�e was very friendly.

We chatted a little bit. He asked if we needed our truck to move something. One day I said no because it's very kind of you that offer a nice pickup truck and anyway we just chatted here and there a little bit I got.

I guess you knew I taught I was Prof. something like that and any anyway. He came up to his walking his dog and he walked past so I was just walking in the house and he turned around and came back and said your micron. I said yeah he said thank you he said your articles.

He said you articulate what I want to say thank you and he and his wife are talk is at the same guy to some other knew I was a professor.

Maybe Nancy Thomas I'm not really sure. I suggested to do the radio show daily and I write on these articles I travel and speaking and he said will listen. He said we know how to pray for you to suggest very interesting on the front lines here, but I hear that all the time. Thank you. You articulate what I want to say and friends. That is, that is why we do what we do to be your voice. In other words, when I'm addressing issues I'm not addressing them just because I'm burdened just because I'm concerned just just because I believe there's an issue, but because I know this is an issue that you're dealing with as well that when God's burdening me to speak. It's it's not just in some echo chamber under hear my own voice reverberating that I get to articulate things that burden and concern you wrote a couple of articles, actually three in the last few days couple of them to find only on the stream stream.org. One of them on the transgender juggernaut. Once sanity became a crime you need to read that friends run on the homepage.

A stream.org. It is tremendously eye-opening to me right now in New York. If you quote miss deploy a profound meaning that say Bruce Jenner was your coworker and you referred to him as him or he you be fined up to $250,000, but if he preferred to be called Z and he said, see, that's just the weird happy clich�, but not see you can be fined for not using the pronoun of choice as Prof. law professor Eugene Volokh pointed out, you do not have a list of terms that include a V today and at and Faye and per and see XE.

These are these are terms that people say call me this, that you are not making this up, you can be fine up to $250,000 in the city of New York if you say sorry I'm not going to do that or it gets worse, it gets worse. And it's one of these to and I will give you a few examples. It's one of these times were not not hatred towards anyone but just because we love what's right. We love what's good with our families and our kids and we love moral sanity that we say Nono enough is enough stand with right this is Michael Brown will be right that this is Michael Brown. I want to invite you to join me for our second ever trip to Israel. February 25 through March 6, 2017 this is a great opportunity. I get to interact with you are radio listening audience.

Click on the Israel manner or call our office at seven 047-8237 the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown get into the line of fire now by calling 866. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown so this is this what happened over the last Michael Brown speaking my joy to be with the 866-34-TRUTH 78840 before I get into this, I mentioned early in the first hour, but many of you would've heard that that I am quite aware of breaking news today that the police officer involved with the death of Freddie Gray in Baltimore has been found not guilty and I know that for many this is a burning issue somewhat say this is another example of exonerating police and black flies don't matter of this and say this is an example of the justice system working properly. I have no comment on this at the moment because I do not know the facts in any more detail than what is just being reported in general media. I do not know if this is righteous or unrighteous and Jesus says in John 724 don't judge based on outward appearance, but judge righteous judgment. I don't know the case. I don't know the situation. I know the way things were reported initially and the way the city responded initially. It's as if there was guilt on the half on the part of the police. I know others who said the opposite. I know it's important we talk through the difficult issues never hesitated it was this shooting death last year of my young namesake Michael Brown and Ferguson, whether it was the death of trave on Martin at the horror at the hands of George Zimmerman a couple years before that.

We talked about these things to to understand perspective and sensitivities and learn about blind spots that we each have quite freely, quite freely and openly and I I have learned. I think more than I've taught it during these times, but I have nothing to say right now because I have nothing substantial on which to base an opinion, having not study things carefully and quite aware that this is major news for many in America so so many things were happening with transgender activism in in the last week, off the charts happening that I was going to write an article listing everything that was happening. And lo and behold, my colleague in Australia, Bill Muilenburg. We talk by phone once we've emailed numerous times I've written forwards one of his books called strained relationships and we have interacted the email case of a Facebook but we never met face-to-face talk by phone once.

That's when he was a guest on the radio broadcaster. He is an American living in Australia for many years and what's shocking to me is any jokes that were twins separated at birth would be interesting twins disease. Whether you're too old to me but both got say this hippies the whole, the whole bit long-haired hippies decades ago, early 70s.

What's amazing is how often we write on the exact same topics with its abortion which is running on one of the me with its radical Islam and and maybe he's in a study that when I have whether it's LGBT issues of the theological issues it's it's amazing so sure NII can't say how many times I finish writing an article and send mine out in a few minutes later I get his latest article that was just sent out an were virtually saying the identical things and quoting from similar sources and we both gotta shake our heads so I'm get ready to write this article. Think about it and I get an email maybe what God can like one in the morning or something would still early for me because the step relate writing and stuff and lo and behold he's he's listed what what I was thinking of doing.

He's done so I wrote my article looking at the larger issues are and quoting some of the specifics and then summing things up in terms of how we have to respond using his article of, but let's just bear in mind within the last few days. The Charlotte Observer, the Charlotte Observer.

Their editorial board issued an opinion, issued the Charlotte Observer official editorial saying that girls young girls will just have to get used to the discomfort that was there were discomfort of suing male genitalia in their bathroom; the stuff you strip just like in the past, whites had a get used to having Blacks in their bathrooms etc. word. Words fail what it utterly irresponsible, abusive, ugly, dangerous, miserable, deplorable editorial. Shall I go on with more adjectives.

Of course the moon excites that he also points out that the most dangerous underreported part of Obama's transgender edict, namely under the Obama administration federal guidance. The following will happen. School districts must allow biological males and females to spend the night together in the same hotel room on field trips. Yeah this is according to the transgender edict that the government put forth in this is my call for national civil disobedience to this that went viral. We can have colleges must let men consider transgender be roommates with one or more women and school officials cannot even tell those young women or their parents in advance of the new roommate is a man without risking a federal lawsuit. This from the government. This is why we call for national civil disobedience: parents to make it onto their schools to call their schools. And as for the school stand and for educators to say no, as well. If you sent to the bullies in this case the biggest bully there is an American federal government and the president was to be a bigger boy than that they will back down and I believe the courts will support us. Ultimately, of Bill Muilenburg closes his article with an accountable name Melissa. She went into her 24 hour fitness gym in Seattle during lunch break. She explains: I went to the locker of the Chickasaw man completely naked, but this is in the 24 hour fitness gym in the locker room. I quickly turned around in a panic, thinking I'd walked into the men's locker room instead of the women's note I was in fact in the women's locker room with a change of policy.

I knew there was nothing I could do it because the state of Washington has said that the man identifies his woman go in those bathrooms and want locker locker rooms, bathrooms, is more private and zero summit on a stall in the ladies room, etc. I understand it's it's is less abusive and less intrusive, but nonetheless a problem have a male and in your laser and expectation of privacy in all the other abuses that come off the list. All those again by a locker room, where people change. She said I ended up going back to the shower and toilet area where I found all of the rest of the women in the locker room will have the same idea to get change in the bathroom stalls instead of in the open area for privacy I guess is a naked man in their by any stretch of the imagination that this Saturday would say the man should be arrested for being intimacy completely knows in the wrong room.

Somehow his blind was he should be arrested should be some form of trespassing involved. He said none of us have the courage to speak to management about this either for the fear that would be labeled something we are not.

This is me. None of us had the courage to speak to management about this either for the fear that we be labeled something or not this is nothing to do about being four against the LGBT community is the fact we don't feel comfortable seeing a man in our Christian that we have no way to tell of his to take advantage of the policy or us. It was extremely uncomfortable and is ready take advantage of the positive IBM hearing this cast a glance at the women he's ready take advantage of it and to say was extremely uncomfortable.

This is to put it mildly. Plenty of other women with put in much harsher terms than that is, is that mean we can't use these gems may be may be. We live in a gems before we can figure out ways to work out at home if if that's what's going to be in a gems then you have to say no to the social madness.

So look this bad news is all bad news.

Good news is we can talk about these things for years now. In the past, people wonder my going to talk about this white what you getting on this David Limbaugh. He was one of these asking Eva David Limbaugh wrote resisting Obama's transgender directive, a hill to Diana attorney David French and denims attorneys wealth transgender extremism to video show how quickly the absurd became accepted the mandatory friend is selling authentically taxes us line in the sand has been crossed five things you can do about trans restrooms and then these men are hateful or haters just say enough is enough. Now people understand why I've written on this.

Why have addressed this and it's been for a decade plus now is a hatred is love bad news is, people have been waking up.

The good news is there.

Waking up note say enough is enough today. I doubt the said tomorrow.

So let us say it enough in the line of fire with your host Dr. Michael Brown voice aboard cultural and spiritual revolution. Here again is Dr. Michael Brown thank you so much for joining us today on the line of fire again. You may have heard me mention this end of last week, but I spoke at a church in North Carolina couple Sundays ago. Both Sunday morning services. The pastor asked me to address and began Christian and what about transgender issue and in every case I bring a message of compassion. I may clear and not just dealing with issues with dealing with people, I say, if a man comes into your service ring address carrying a Bible is evidently a man and he says a man to the message and since there participates in what you do is take mouth lunch spent time and get to know and help them find a place of wholeness so that his insides and is outside certain agreement well within two weeks of that message. The pastor texts me and says well we we had the transgender individual come to our service on Sunday so this is a male to female answer, but he loved him that psych is a putting on an act because the Christians course to exhibit. We have problem come off because effeminate afterwards that he use the ladies room in our policies. You use the bathroom of your biological sex. So what we do will you want to reach out to the person with compassion.

Yes, you don't want to put it Elise the women in the congregation or the the parents and in their their girls into the to the bathroom and you don't open the door to heterosexual. It's just going to do that so that he can access that the ladies room remedies had a sexual predator timeout is a sexual pervert your tormentor or just a simple predator so they'll do DEVIOUS things you say we would want to do that will people are devious. You don't open the door for that, under any circumstances. So my suggestion actually mentioned it to it to Nancy us down. Good news. Questions become more more frequently when when I mentioned at Hershey's gave wise counsel which which I agreed with, which is well let him use a private bathroom and ice suggested that if he comes again to say this and we want you to feel easier once you feel welcome. We also don't want an uncomfortable situation for you or for the ladies. So if you need a bathroom break. Just let militias know and they'll just escort you back. You know normally that the pastor's office or an office back there to be private or something like that and look up I I speak in SETTINGS over time and sometimes you can't get to a restroom and you need to get your private restroom. You can't get to one without someone opening the door for you is things are locked or they want an usher to escort you through the guest speaker than I want to be swarmed or something like that sought I've had to do that many times if I'd hate to just have some open the bathroom for me. So we want to accommodate individual care. But when society is going mad around us. When the Charlotte Observer leading national newspaper is saying to young ladies. You're just going to get hat you just gonna have to get used, to be discomfort soon male genitalia in your bathrooms and locker rooms again. Words fail. I'm a radio host. I'm a writer. Words are my craft words of my calling. I'm using them day and night speaking publicly and I was so grieved and outraged to read that it's almost 1 of those words fail moments, but this is one of a number of things happening when when you're in your stage, your city or place of business could find you 1/4 million dollars because you say, like I just don't believe that your see I have a hard year one person have a hard time referring to is them and they will do that so identify multiple genders and I don't identify in any category I want to call me, they are watch it with you referring to me they have a problem they can't do that. I believe your day is a struggle grammatically with calling an individual they them be five to $250,000 and this is happening on our watch when when the grown women don't dare protest the presence of a naked man in their their gym locker room for fear being branded begets when college officials could face a federal lawsuit for informing a young woman that her new roommate is actually a biological male. That's what we have to say enough is enough. We will reach out to everyone with compassion, but we will resist the cultural madness.

Yes I know I know our president of just six days ago issued his statement on the international Day against homophobia and trans phobia and simply say what I'm saying saying you should be uncomfortable with a naked man in your locker room ladies saying that that institutions should refuse this federal edict say you can't tell other parents. Young it, we just want the parents to know you got three young people will be rooming together college there off there all freshman 18 years old and Sally and Susie will be sharing a room with Billy, who's actually a biological male who the last three months is been identified as a female, but we can't tell. We can't tell you parents we can tell you that that's can be the rooming arrangement was we could face federal font that's we have to say enough is enough yet. Call us transforms.

If you want, but it's false back down to someone falsely labels me. I can compromise because someone calls me names or threatens me Canada Carly Harmon on the blaze reports a Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau has announced a bill that would criminalize anti-transgender speech. I imagine Lansing today could be categorized as an entrance into speak with violators receiving up to two years in prison, up to two years in prison. Now they might so now you can have differences, but okay. Is this can be considered hate propaganda if if I refer to Bruce Terrace. He, with that the hate propaganda. With that the trans phobia punishable by law deference on the panic state I am in the sound the alarm state and I'm saying, we've been talking about these things for a while because we knew this was coming that the.
