A discussion on the protests in Minnesota, the role of Antifa and ICE, and the importance of faith and salvation in Christianity.

All right, we're going to take a look at, you have all those protesters there in Minnesota, Janet, and we heard some of them when they were told, why don't you guys just get a job, like regular people, and they said, we're being paid very well for this, and some of them were being paid over $100,000 a year. OK, but go ahead and take her away. This is just the most shocking voter manipulation by Democrats in history. This is about Tim Walton, the kind of Antifa style fake protest movement, all to protect their illegal voters in Minnesota, because Minnesota is about to fall.

It's going to turn Republican if we can straighten up their voter rolls. This is going to probably end up having to go to the Supreme Court in some way or pass the SAVE Act and require an ID. But welcome to Doug in Exile. This is where the happy patriots are. We never give up.

My confidence is in you, the patriot, and me, the patriot, even more than the vote, I got to say. Guys, they're not going to take our country from us. And they can try to use their laws to destroy this republic. And we'll put it right back together. Here's David Sachs on the All In podcast.

I've raised Smith and too many others to mention who are murdered by criminal illegal aliens and the media won't ever tell you their names. But President Trump was hired by the American people to do a job, which is to seal the border and deport criminal aliens so that more of these tragedies do not occur in the future. And this is a popular policy over 55% of the American people say they want all illegal aliens deported. And over 90% want criminal aliens removed. And by criminal aliens, I'm referring to the ones who commit additional crimes after they enter the country illegally.

Now, this policy is working. Murders were down 21% last year. It's one of the best years in record. And in most states, the process is smooth and doesn't make national news. And the reason for that is because local authorities are cooperating with ICE.

But Minneapolis has taken a different approach. They've engaged in a campaign of, quote, massive resistance to federal authorities.

So let's talk about what's actually happening there. And he shows a picture of Tim Walz. Is this accidental that the Democrat Party in Minnesota is performing a mass resistance to helping ICE? Everywhere else that the local authorities work with ICE, there's no violence. You see this?

The violence appears to be completely intentional to stop ICE's ability to remove criminal illegal aliens. We're talking about the worst kinds of predators and just lunatics. And Tim Walts is in on it.

So this guy who seems like he seems like a nice guy. He's like everyone's kind of oafish uncle. Oh, hey, everybody. I'm so incompetent. He's evil.

This is what hurts innocent men and women and children. The ground. I think the first thing to understand is that what's happening is much more than just protests. And obviously, I have no problem with people peacefully protesting and making their opinions known, but that's not what's going on here. These are Antifa style operations designed to thwart the enforcement of federal immigration law.

Okay, we just have to read that bottom paragraph there because it's not just protests. See, they monitor groups that call themselves constitutional observers, unquote, videotape immigration agents' activity. They document their vehicles, that is, they're taking movies of their driver's licenses in a database and use whistles and horns to warn neighbors when federal agents appear. That's obstructing and undermining a federal work of removing criminal illegal aliens. They're aiding and abetting criminals.

The protesters, that's not a protest, guys. That's a criminal act. They need to be arrested if you do that. If a cop is coming after a terrorist and I warn him, I call him and warn him or sound an alarm to warn him and get him out of there. They're highly organized.

They're communicating in encrypted chat groups. There's stalk and docks ICE agents. They follow them around town. They surround them at their hotels. They use their cars to block roads.

And they use bullhorns and whistles to alert criminals who are about to be arrested. Remember, ICE is a law enforcement agency. They have warrants to arrest known criminal aliens. Despite this rhetoric of them being like the Gestapo, they are going after specific named individuals for whom they have warrants to arrest. These are dangerous missions.

And these agitators are interfering and making these missions even more dangerous.

Now, the media has tried to portray Good and Pretty as simply innocent bystanders or people who are peacefully protesting ICE policies. They weren't. They were foot soldiers in these Antifa-style operations. And most importantly, they brought deadly weapons to the fight.

So Renee Good hit an officer with her SUV, which under a Minnesota law signed by Tim Waltz himself in 2020, justifies the use of deadly force by an officer. That's Tim Waltz signed it. Keith Ellis signed it. Their own leadership signed it. You can't use a vehicle.

A vehicle is just a 2,000-pound bullet. Defend himself. And Alex Freddie was even more reckless. I think we've probably all seen the video by now where he sought confrontation with ICE officials. He was kicking the car.

He was in a rage. This wasn't his first time doing this. He kicked the taillight off, by the way. And that taillight, which costs more than $1,000, you can look it up, on this make-a-vehicle, that makes it a felony. This was before he got shot.

This was however many days before he got shot. He was doing this and they were trying to make him look like the peaceful nurse. Remember the photographs of him in his nurse's smock? They're going like, oh, he's a peaceful nurse. They don't show you this one where he's spitting and frothing and a lunatic.

If I did this to a cop, you know, or any other federal agent, if I did this to an IRS agent's car, they would zip tie me and take me to prison. And any experienced gunner will tell you that if you're armed and you're dealing with law enforcement, you have to be the world's biggest pacifist. because you're putting your life in danger by making them fear that their lives are in danger. And I think the mainstream media didn't tell people these facts. They just presented highly selective camera angles, even airbrushed and face-tuned predio to make him appear to be more, I guess, handsome.

Yeah, there's the guy on the left, kind of, he's a little bit goonier looking. And then they tidied him up on the right. They tightened up his chin. They gave him a better skin tone, you know, made him a little more tan. Just handsome guy on the right.

By the way, remember when Karine Jean-Pierre said that the right was guilty of doing deep fakes? Deep fakes. Cheap fakes or deep fakes or whatever. Cheap fakes. That they selectively edited the news.

This is MSNBC, MSNOW, I believe, did this. I don't know if it's CBS or what outlet did it. But they all passed this image around on the right. They put out an AI tidied up image of the AI with an American flag behind him in his nurse's smock. And the news headlines read, you know, nurse on his way to work, on his way to saving people's lives was shot by ice.

This is absolute communist style Russian propaganda. This is how they did it. This is George Orwell in 1984. This is propaganda, guys. The left isn't just doing it.

They're good at it. It's effective. They were able to get a bunch of imbecilic leftists. I'm going to show you how they're all paid, by the way. You know what?

Let's skip. I'll jump out of this video real quick just to make this final point, because this one's too good. This is the mayor of El Cajon with the biggest chunk of news you've ever heard on these Soros funded protesters. Guess how much they're getting paid a year. How about $80,000 a year to protest?

Minimum. What if we as Republicans would have went to the border and protested? Instead, we just let everybody come in. You know why? It's because we don't have a George Soros that's funding these operations.

These people are being paid between $80,000 and $120,000 a year to be paid protesters. George Soros is paying the protesters $80,000 to $120,000 a year. That's a salary. That is shocking. No wonder why.

And this is how they're going to win an election? When you're a paid protester and you're kind of a wingnut, those two things go hand in hand. And yes, you'll fly to other cities and stay there and put your body at risk of fighting the federal government. There's an anarchy happening that I worry about people. I know people are compassionate and I get that.

I want to be compassionate towards people, too. But if you start throwing out the laws of the federal government and say, well, I'll follow this law, but I won't follow that law. I'll be an anarchist here, but I won't be an anarchist there. and I'll fight against anarchy in some other way, then you're just inviting the destruction of the country as a whole. That's what they really want, is the destruction of the country as a whole, funded by George Soros.

You're here, $80,000 to $100,000 a year salary to be able to. All righty.

Now, George Soros isn't the only one that's funding him. You've got that billionaire Chinese, or he's not a Chinese, he's American, but he lives in China, because I think they've got a warrant for his arrest here. But he's been funding them for millions and millions of dollars. Then you've got a number of these other organizations that are these tax-exempt organizations that have been funding them too. And so, you know, if you take a – and then in Somalia, you know, right there in Minnesota, a lot of that money that's coming there, it's going to terrorist organizations that they're making off all those fraudulent organizations.

But it's – and here's the thing, too. You have these businesses now. It's become a regular commercial business to rent a mob. You can rent an entire mob. And you can rent people that will sign up as if they have a particular thing they're against.

And they've actually got groups of elderly people in their 70s, 60s, and 70s out there that are on fixed income. And they're making good money. They're going out. They're bored. They're sitting at home.

They're retired. and I watched a bunch of these old fools actually standing out there dancing. But you can rent a mob nowadays. That should be illegal. What do you think?

Yeah, it should be illegal, but they're still doing it, and they're even doing it at the airport.

So they're even going to the airport and causing havoc on people that are even coming here to visit family. Like, you get off the airplane, you're going to visit your family, maybe your daughter who just had a baby, and you're getting ready to go visit. And all of a sudden, now you've got these protesters out there that are yelling and screaming their head off and blowing whistles. And it's like, oh, hey, welcome to Minnesota. Like, yeah, it should be a crime because it's getting a little too much.

I've got, in fact, what you're talking about right here, a group of enraged leftist women in spandex. at a core power yoga studio in Minneapolis confronted staff members. What is a spandex? That's the skin tight. And it's usually on people who shouldn't be wearing them where they're overflowing.

Spandex is just painted on pants. Pretty much.

Okay. And here you've got about 40 women. They're all women. And I don't know. It seems like they're losing their minds.

I mean, I don't know what it is here in the last couple of years where you actually, these women that signed up, paid $2,500 a weekend to go out in the woods and scream at trees. And they're going for a whole weekend screaming at trees. Then you had, we talked about this before, this Trump derangement syndrome where they were taking watermelons and they would name their watermelon. They would, some man that they hated, each one would have their own watermelon and they would take a ball bat and beat that watermelon. And that was symbolic of beating up a man.

And I'm wondering if any of them up there named a watermelon after me. I wonder because they listen to me. We don't grow watermelons up here in Minnesota. I doubt it was a watermelon, if anything. No, but you certainly have your fruits.

There's a guy up there called Tampon Tim, okay? Oh. And he let these women convince him to put tampons in boys bathrooms and boys showrooms You sure that wasn his idea No they convinced him The same thing happened in California with Governor Newsom And it was the feminists that were behind that. And you wonder, have they totally lost their mind?

Okay. Okay? And these young boys, they were a bit confused when they found those things.

Someone was throwing them at each other. They had no idea what to do with them. You mean they didn't need them? No. That's crazy.

Maybe they just didn't reach puberty yet.

Well, but what? I mean, think about this. Obviously. You've got this guy, his governor. He was elected governor, a guy that would.

Allegedly. Yeah, that might be true, too. That's right. Which are known there in Minnesota is not known for. Fair elections.

Yeah. In fact, if it wasn't for you, Shannon, you might not be known for anything good there.

Well, I'm telling you what, Ernie. You know, I'm a southern girl, and I'm just not sure. When I moved here, everybody was like, Shannon, are you aware where you're moving to? And I was like, well, no. My sister used to live in Minnesota, and she told me that there are a lot of really smart people there that really get it, but they're overshadowed by the lunatics.

Yes. Yeah, and that's true. everybody here has just been so pleasant and everybody is so nice and you know it's just it's great you take your shoes off at the door and you're you know you're home at everybody's house you know back in the back in the south you don't take your shoes off because that's just gross but then you come here to minnesota you take your shoes off as if you just live here well you've got snow out there eight eight months out of the year i know but but don't think don't think that and i'm I am that type of, I am a little feisty, a little bold and courageous. I'm hoping I'll run into a little tiny Tim somewhere, small fry, somewhere. Might be the women's room.

Yeah, that would probably be where you'd find him. I'm just hoping I accidentally run into him and just play this little southern bell clueless thing and be like, oh, my gosh, like, you know, I'm just hoping I have that moment and I have the right words to say in that moment because they just need a little bit of something that's a little strong and aggressive and maybe a little bit of fire. But I'm hoping that's going to change. I actually went to the GOP debate, and that was my first time, And I heard there hadn't been a Republican governor here in like, what, 10, 12 years? I can't remember the last one.

OK, well, then there you go. And I said, well, heaven to Betsy, what in the what is going on? What is going on? How has that happened?

So it sounds like this has just been a state with that, you know, with this kind of on a it's been on the run. And it's got layers and layers and layers of issues of decades. But you know what? Like they said, I'm hoping that there's just going to be this turn that's going to happen. And when it does, I'm hoping that this, instead of inviting destruction, we're going to invite revival and make it a turn.

And if the Lord sent me and my husband all the way from North Carolina to Minnesota to be one of those soldiers, then I'm ready. I'm armored up and I'm ready.

Well, you know what it is. It's not that all of the people are idiots there. You have a lot of conservatives. Yeah. The problem of it is it's just like in California, just like in Washington, the state of Washington and New York, what happens is you guys have a lot of conservatives, but the Democrats, the Democrats hold all the offices.

And then they gerrymandered the states where it's impossible to even get a Republican congressman, let alone a senator or a governor. Yeah. In fact, you have... Why isn't this happening in any other states? It's not.

This is going across... This ice is going on in all other states. Why Minneapolis, right? Because of the leadership. Exactly.

Because of the leadership. Yeah, between the mayor and the governor. And you know it's all a distraction from the fraud. Because this really ramped up as soon as the fraud started getting exposed. As soon as Nick Shirley went to that Leering Center and exposed it, all of a sudden the ICE protests really ramped up.

It's a distraction. That's what it is. It is.

Well, you know, the amazing thing was that they were taking suitcases filled with money, $100 bills, suitcases. and as long, okay, as they claimed it, as they took it, and they allowed them to ship this. Through the airport, yeah. That's amazing. That's just absolutely amazing.

But, you know, the one that was in charge, literally, of organizing these rioters was the lieutenant governor. She was in charge. That was her job, to organize the rioters. And she got exposed on that signal chat.

Now, I don't know if they've ever confirmed that that was actually her, but everything was pointing to her. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Who was her? I can't remember her name right now.

And, you know, because it wasn't just everything, you know, the money laundering taking place there, whenever you have one crime like that, you've got others. Like, I'll bet you they have a major problem, drug problem, too. It's got to be a major. You don't hear much of that. It's been overshadowed.

But there has to be. But speaking of that, you know, China is making... Peggy Flanagan. Yeah, that was her. China, now, they've even gone...

You know, here they're supposed to be dealing with Trump. They're agreeing to quit making this fentanyl, but now they're actually using animal tranquilizers, the kind they use for tranquilizing elephants and rhinos and that. And they're using this, and it's called metataminin, and it's making this drug, even this fentanyl, even more addictive, even more addictive. You know, once they take it, people got to have more of it right away until it kills them. And so that's what's happening there today in China.

And it's kind of like they're doing exactly the opposite of what they promised they would do. But, of course, what's new about that, huh? But speaking about that, Bill Clinton, Bill and Hillary, they have to go in on the 26th and 27th, and they've got to testify.

Now, just recently, here they've reopened the investigation into Benghazi, and old Hillary could be in major trouble now.

Well, what difference does it make? Remember that? That was her line when she had to testify before Congress when it happened. Yeah, what difference does it make anyway?

Well, she betrayed. I don't know if you know this, Shannon, but within the collective, to us, betrayal is something that is repulsive to us. We believe in faith. We believe in loyalty and that. But within the collective, if you can betray someone of standing, someone that has a power, like what Joseph Stalin said.

He said, to rest your head on the breast of a friend to gain their complete confidence and then thrust a dagger in their back, there's nothing sweeter. You can sleep good. And within that, we've seen within the collective, there's a mindset. If you can betray someone else who's got a lot of power, a standing, and you take them down, that adds to your power and your standing. We saw that actually with Jimmy Carter in the shawl of Iran.

One day Jimmy got his arm around the shawl, their best buddies, and the next day Jimmy betrayed him. We saw that with Barack Obama and Barak, the president of Egypt. Same thing. They made their deals, and then Barack betrayed him, and the next thing you knew he had him arrested in his own country and jailed. But the worst I think I saw was with Hillary and Gaddafi.

Gaddafi had supported Hillary in a run for the Senate and that. And here, when she did to him, when they were beating him to death, he was begging for mercy. and they had her filled, and she's watching it, and we're watching her watching this, and she's cackling, she's laughing as he's begging for mercy, and they're beating him to death. But that's within the collective. That's what the mindset of those on the left.

Kind of a well, what do you think?

Well, that's disgusting. that's just revolting to me that these are things that that is that happens behind closed doors and and within the darkest of the dark and that's where you know i was i was i was all i've always heard a fish stink from the head right and so you get leadership and and you got you've got bad leadership, then that just makes the whole body dissenting. And so it sounds like these things here, it just literally is so, you see it in corporate America, you see it in jobs, but when you see it in leadership like that, it's just revolting. It is.

Speaking of revolting, you know, the election they had there in Virginia where they elected that woman mayor or governor, boy, everything is going south. She's not, yeah, and here now what they want to do is, I mean, what they want to do now is the Democrats in Virginia, they want to pass this legislation that grants the environmental, the EPA department there, the ability to use drones to spy on anyone without any warrant or anything to be able to come over your property, come down and spy on your house. And you talk about communism. And so they've introduced that, and that's a bill coming up. I wouldn't doubt what's happening there in Virginia.

And, you know, just like in New York City with Moron D'Amandi, you have – he promised those people – yeah, he promised them free bus rides, free bus rides.

Well, guess what? Governor Hockel said, no, no free bus drive. You're not going to get that. No, price actually went up. Yeah, yeah.

Well, and not only that, he promised them state-run grocery stores.

Well, there aren't any. He didn't deliver on that. He can't even deliver on the basic services. The trash is piling up. The snow is piling up.

It's basic services that he can't even deliver on. Yeah, they've got garbage. The garbage where the snow plows have hit the garbage sitting out there, and it's all over the place. But even worse than all of that, remember he promised them those shelters for the homeless? And you had 16 homeless freeze to death out there because they couldn just in a couple days because they couldn find any shelters and so all of those people they raided his house they went to his mansion you know and all these Democrats and they were shouting we know about you we know who your mother is we know what she's done do you know what they were talking about?

Wow. No. They were talking about she was in the Epstein files. Not only was she in the Epstein files, there's a picture of her standing, holding a baby, and Epstein is standing behind her, and the caption reads, congratulations on your becoming a new father. and so that's right in the Epstein files and so they're claiming that he's Epstein's kid and so wow, wow wouldn't that be a plot twist yeah I did not see that coming I did not have that on my 2026 bingo card well here's the thing well amongst the Democrats if he was to come out and said yeah Epstein was my father that would be a positive thing for them and by the way so far with all of these new 3 million documents that have come out these files with Epstein guess what Do you remember they kept trying to find something on Trump and other Republicans?

And over 90% of them that are named in these files are Democrats.

So that really backfired on them big time, didn't it?

Well, that's what happens. Go ahead and start revealing stuff, and then somehow you find out, oh, yeah, maybe I shouldn't have done that because, you know, that dirt always turns over. Absolutely. Hang tight. We'll go up against a break.

We'll be back right after this. On a cold winter's morning On a sidewalk in the city I lost so approximately As the snow was getting deep I could see the look of death It was there in her eyes now As I began to preach She began to speak She said The future, I'll admit it. I've come to kill my baby. The whole world is telling me that I have that right. But deep down inside, I believe what you're preaching.

Children are a gift of God. We've got to give them life.

So I put my arm around, and I gave the gospel. It was right there in the darkness that she received the light. Two souls were saved. Both her and her baby, if you're called to do the Lord's work, you had better learn to do it right now. You've got to know how to please it.

Not just the pleasing. Don't try to walk away. There's no way to come. He's the keeper of your soul now He's God's son Now every creature knows The rock of his salvation I will separate the goats from all the sheep All men are sinners They all need a Savior The only one you trust in Is your soul that will keep And when I finish the preaching The woman was a believer The baby in her womb I knew she would keep And now 25 years later Her baby is a young preacher She's so very proud of the baby That she decided to keep You got to know how to please him. Not just to please him.

Don't try and walk away from this. No one's wrong. He doesn't count your blessing. The reason why you're able to please the keeper of your soul. He's got the son.

You got to know how to please him. You got to please him. Not just to please him. Don't try to walk away There's nowhere to run You better count your blessings And do it while you're able He's the keeper of your soul now He's God to suffer You've got to know how he's done Not just a piece of it Don't try and walk away There's nowhere to run You better count your blessings He's pleasing while you're in. He's the keeper of your soul.

He's got the soul. All righty, we are back, and we have our special guest tonight is Shannon Hodge. You know, Shannon, that song you just heard, that's a true story. Yeah, I was listening to that pretty intently. I thought I knew what song it was until I didn't know what song it was.

Wow, yeah. Oh, I wrote that song. I was one of mine. I've written over 40 songs and recorded them. We called Pastor Ernie the man in white.

Yeah, that was me. Wow. And, of course, it was just a deep voice. The other voice. Oh, wait, that was a Kenny Rogers song.

I was thinking Johnny Cash, because he's done a couple of Johnny Cash ones as well. Yes. Oh, yeah. Yeah. One of the most popular is Burning Lake of Fire.

Don't fall into the burning lake of fire. Yeah. Hey, look, Ernie, I was raised on eight tracks, okay? I was raised on eight tracks, your Kenny Rogers, your Conway Twitty.

So go ahead and test me on some music. All right. Yeah, we did that. No, no, I'm just kidding. Yeah.

Yeah, I remember. In fact, our first programs were all eight tracks. The first programs, and you know what happened, Jen? And some of them simply disintegrated. I mean, they just disintegrated.

Yeah, we still have a few in storage back 51-year-old years ago. But I did, when they called the man in the black the Johnny Cash, I've been told by many people that I sound a lot like Johnny Cash on certain songs that we sing there. Like, should we play one for her, Burning Lake of Fire?

Now, this song here, listen, this song, actually, I got charged with terrorizing a group of witches at Planned Parenthood. Oh. I was out in front of Planned Parenthood there in Bedford, and I was, well, there's some things that happened out there. But anyhow, so I turned up, put it in my car player and DVD or CD player, and I turned it up and I just sang to them, the burning lake of fire. And they called the police.

They talked to the prosecutor and they said I terrorized them.

So they come down. Yeah. I'm not kidding you. You want to play that for it? Sure.

We can do that. Hey, wait, wait. No, I have a question. Can I take this and play it in downtown Minneapolis? You think I can get by with doing it?

Well, yeah. That might work down there. I mean, it was popular. But go ahead and play it for her. It's a short song.

It's a short one. Sin is a burning thing It has a deadly sting Pleasure is a burning desire But it will take you to the lake of fire Don't fall into that burning lake of fire You'll go down, down, down The flames, they'll burn higher And you'll burn, burn, burn That lake of fire That lake of fire Don't fall into that burning lake of fire You'll go down, down, down Through the flames, they'll burn higher You'll burn, burn, burn That lake of fire That lake of fire Christ is a saving king. He'll keep you from death sting. Sin is a burning desire. Go into that burning lake of fire.

You'll go down, down, down. The flames, they'll burn higher. And you'll burn, burn, burn. That lake of fire That lake of fire Don't fall into that burning lake of fire You'll go down, down, down The flames, they'll burn higher And you'll burn, burn, burn That lake of fire That lake of fire Well, see, Shannon, the witches actually, when they called the police, now you've got to see this, and these two cops come out, and these witches told them that I terrified them. They were terrorized, completely terrified by what I did there.

And so they convinced the prosecutor to give me a citation and charged me with trespassing. But I was in my car on the road. And they said, well, this is a private driveway. It wasn't, okay. But anyhow, I thought, well, if I get arrested for this, I'll take it out in the courtroom.

I'll use this on the radio. And so these two cops, after they wrote me a ticket, What was the ticket for? For trespassing. No destruction? For trespassing and for, well, for terrorizing the witches.

That's what they wrote down. And so anyhow. I wrote that on the ticket? Yeah. Terrorizing witches?

Yeah. Anyhow.

Well, these women, they didn't deny being witches. I mean, they were witches. And anyhow. You know, so but here's the thing. These two cops, after they gave me the ticket, the one said, you know, off the record, this is just off the record.

I said, what is it? He said, is it possible we could get one of your CDs? We love your songs. We all listen to them. I said, you just wrote me a ticket.

He said, I know. I had to do that. He said, but he said, we would really like one of your CDs. we love your songs ourselves. And yeah, I'm not kidding.

And, uh, yeah. Unbelievable. I just want to know who the backup singers were. I just want to know who those women were, because I was, I was enjoying their tunes. They just, who were those women Okay Well we have a bunch of different ones And was impressive Yeah we have yeah I there some I have someone like Julie and Sandy and Christy and I'm trying to think of the different, there's a number of different women that we're singing.

Esty probably has the most beautiful voice, Esty Christman. She's in heaven now.

Well, I've never heard anybody sing Lake of Fire so beautifully. I mean, really. I was like, wow, that's really good. Were they just members of the church that you had sing with you, or did you actually hire backup singers? those were just I didn't hire those were just some ladies that sing you know they just like to sing like some of the songs that we played there and I don't even know if I remember I'm trying to remember if I knew all of them okay we get together you remember Danny Ray we would get together with him and there would be a bunch of people out and we just we would just cut a song and some of these songs that we did.

I did on one take. One take, believe it or not. I believe it. It's hard, but yeah. The Lord.

And so, no, I'm not sure I even knew all the people that were singing these songs.

Now, you know that one song that we have where that little girl's in there about once before I die? that was an old one she's an airline pilot now she flies on one of the big airplanes the big jets that others that one song we sing tell mom and dad about Jesus that's Sammy and she was about 8 years old at that song how long ago did you record these I recorded some of these songs 40 years or more ago.

Okay, so they've been around for a while. When was the last time you recorded a song? Oh, it's been a few years ago. I think you need a revival. You need to make a new CD.

I think you need a new one. A remastered Greatest Hits, a re-recording. Yeah, we could do that. One of the songs was one of the funniest ones I ever did was called the Chubby Food Song. Chubby Food Song?

Yeah, and it was funny. We have it someplace, but I had two of the fellows that work in the ministry that were big boys. I mean, large boys. And we did this, we recorded this song because of those two. They just ate all the time.

I got it. Here. You want to hear it?

Well, I don't know. Yeah, we had several. Try it and see. We've got about 10 minutes left, so at least a little bit of it. All right, you can play just a little.

Here we go. When a group of chubby people got together with food and food and food and fellowship, the song is called Chubby Food. Chubby food. Woo-woo-woo. Oh, chubby food.

Woo-woo-woo. I love you so. You taste so good. Oh, chubby food. Oh, chubby food.

I love you so. You taste so good. Now I could have been some ice cream. Ice cream, ice cream. On a piece of apple pie.

My, oh my. Oh, chubby food, I love you so. Without you, I would die. Don't die, don't die. Chubby food.

Woo, woo, woo. Oh, chubby food. Woo, woo, woo. I love you so. Woo, woo, woo.

You taste so good. Oh, chubby food. Oh, chubby food. I love you so. You taste so good.

Now I dated little Debbie. And her sister, Sarah Lee. And now there's three. But when I met Betty Crocker, I knew she was the one for me. Oh, chubby food.

Oh, chubby food. I can't take it anymore. Stop. Come on. That was great.

We had, that was one that didn't have any music. We did the one with the music, but yeah, that was. I'm going to be singing that on the way home. Yeah. You know what happened?

My wife's going to be looking at me like, what are you doing? I'm going to be singing that all week. We recorded that at an ice cream social for the Right to Life. We did an ice cream social, and those guys were around there, and I wrote, it was Coupon Ken, Dr. Parker.

I wrote that song for him because in my office, you know, where we had the Right to Life office, he was supposed to be on a diet. And instead, every door that I opened, little Debbie cupcakes would fall out of.

So I sat at the table at the ice cream thing and I wrote that song and these guys were all around. And I wrote it right there and I said, here's what you do. And we did that right there. And the one pastor who was a big fellow, that one pastor was listening. He was laughing so hard he fell right off his stool.

He couldn't. He was a great big guy. And that was something years ago that was chubby food.

Well, speaking of pastors, we do have Pastor Howell on the line, and we've got about six minutes left, so we probably should be getting to him soon. Oh, hey, Pastor Hal. Are you there? We're doing good. What did you think of my rendition of the chubby food?

Oh, it should be on the number one list. All right. Okay. You should have did the halftime show. Yeah.

Yeah. Don't want you at the next Super Bowl. Yeah. Chubby food. Yeah.

I'm serious. I'm going to be singing that all week. Yeah, well, Pastor Howell, you better tell us how we can get to heaven.

Okay, it's very simple, actually. God tells everybody in the Bible, gives them a plain plan of salvation, basically through his son, the Lord Jesus Christ. Most people in this world have been lied to all their lives by preachers and everybody else, telling them that their good works somehow will get them to heaven. I just brought up a Lutheran all my life. My pastor told me, well, if you live a good life and try to keep the Ten Commandments, you'll go to heaven.

If your good works outbalance your bad works, you'll go to heaven. And if they don't, you know, you go the other place. But it's not by works of righteousness, which we have done, but according to his mercy, he saved us. That's what Titus 3, 5 says. And Jesus, when he died on that cross, God was allowing him to transfer your guilt and mine for all our sins onto Jesus.

So when Jesus said it is finished, he was telling the world that all the work necessary for our redemption. It's been accomplished by him right then and there and approved by his father. And so when you come to Jesus Christ, sorry about the fact you're a sinner. And that's important too. Luke 3.13, I believe it is, says that except you repent, you shall likewise perish.

So repentance is admitting something to God that he knows already anyway. Without Jesus Christ in our hearts, we're a bunch of dirty, rotten, lousy, stinking sinners on our road to hell. But the only thing that can wash away our sins and make us clean in God's eyes is the blood of Christ. That's why Ephesians 1 7 says, in whom we have redemption through his blood. Your redemption doesn't come in your good works.

If you could quit sinning right now and never sin again the rest of your life, just the sins you've already done would be enough to send you to hell. And your good works can't wash away one sin. Your church membership can't wash away one sin. And I don't care how many priests and popes and other religious leaders you get giving you some absolution and waving their arms around and stuff, they can't wash away one sin. They can't even wash away their own sins.

The only thing that can wash away our sins is the blood of Jesus. And that's why in John 14, 6, Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the Father but by me. Notice he said, but by me, not by Mary, Peter, Paul, or all the saints in heaven and all this other stuff, but by Jesus only.

So if you want to go to heaven instead of go to hell, and you want to do it God's way, come to Jesus. The Bible says in Ephesians 2, 8, and 9, for by grace are you saved, that's saved from hell, through faith, and not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not of works, lest any man should boast.

So nobody's going to be walking around heaven patting himself on the back saying, I got here because I did this and I did that, I was a good Protestant, I was a good Catholic or anything else like that, they're going to be getting to heaven because Jesus got them there through what he did for us on the cross, and because they came to the Calvary, confessing the fact that they were sinners, and asking Jesus to come into their heart, taking his blood and washing away their sins, and giving them the gift of eternal life. And right then and there, that's when the Holy Spirit comes into a person and gives them a spiritual birth into the family of God, and it lasts forever. Nobody can take it away.

Now, Romans 10, 13 tells you how to receive Jesus Christ as your Savior. It says, for whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

So that means if you believe in your heart, Jesus died on the cross to save your soul, and you call upon him, which means to pray and ask him to come into your heart, he'll do it. Revelation 3.20 said, behold, I stand at the door and knock. If any man hear my voice, or in other words, hear my word and open the door, I will come in. Notice he says, if you open up the door as a gift. He's not going to force it on you.

If you want to die and go to hell or ignore it or put it off or try and get to heaven some other way, God's not going to stop you. He don't want you to go to hell, but he's not going to make you go to heaven. But he's given you the plan of salvation.

Now it's up to you what you're going to do with it. John 1 12 said, but as many as received him, to them gave he the power to become one minute.

So if you want to receive the payment Jesus paid for you on the cross. Pray this prayer right now and ask Jesus to come into your heart. Dear God, have mercy on me, a sinner. I confess that I've sinned against you and thought word and deed. And Lord Jesus, I believe you died on that cross and shed your blood for my salvation.

And right here and now, Lord Jesus, I ask you to come into my heart. Forgive me for all my sins and save my soul, because I receive you right now as my only way to heaven, as my Lord, my Savior, and my Redeemer, my God, in whom I trust. In Jesus' name, amen.

Now, 1 John 5, 13, the Apostle John said, if you pray that prayer and mean it, these things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life. The Apostle John's saying, if you not only believe it, but that word believe meant believe to the point of receiving, like you just did. If you receive the payment Jesus paid for on the cross, you can know, not just think it, wish it, or hope for it, but know that from now on you have that eternal life. Absolutely. It's the greatest gift.
