The following program is sponsored by What's Right What's Left Ministries and is responsible for its content.
Portions of the following program may be pre-recorded. I am Pastor Ernie Sanders, the voice of the Christian Resistance. Stay tuned, my radio broadcast What's Right What's Left is coming up right now.
Coming to you live from Independence, Ohio. We change our life for the better in many different ways. Heard around the world every Monday through Friday. Pastor Sanders is always years ahead of the rest of the media telling you exactly what they're covering up.
This is What's Right What's Left. I tune in every chance I get to hear exactly what's going on with the voice of the Christian Resistance. Unabashedly cutting through the rhetoric by exposing the hard topics facing our society and world.
A lot of the other news media don't pick up the news items like he does. And bringing to light the enemies of freedom who are out to steal your rights, your children, and enslaving you. You really get the truth out. I can tune into your show and hear the unvarnished truth.
Thank you. This is What's Right What's Left with Pastor Ernie Sanders. Good evening and welcome to another edition of What's Right What's Left, the voice of the Christian Resistance on this August 19, 2024. And this is pledge week, pledge week, pledge week, folks. So back in the booth we have pastors mighty men, Pastor Richard and Deacon Eric. And then they're in this booth ready to hold up his two elderly heroes, none other than Kenny. My elderly heroes.
Holding you guys up, yes. All right. And here, one of those elderly heroes, none other than the parson Joe Larson.
Well, if you're referring to that God fearing, Bible believing, flag waving, got no mean constitution, loving patriot, that might be me. Yeah. All right. You hear the cackling, you hear the cackling, that's cackling rose, that's little Lisa. Good evening, everyone.
Always a cackle, never an egg. Okay. And then out there, like a rose between two elderly thorns. Ms. Wendy Wilson. Good evening, Pastor and everybody.
Hello, Wendy. Glad to have you. Oh, hey, Pastor Larson, how are you? Oh, better. Doing good.
God, I'm glad to hear it. And last but not least, myself, their humble hero. Humble. With a capital H. We need to, better, probably better move on pretty quick, huh?
All right. It's pledge week, pledge week, pledge week, folks. Listen, we're finally, finally, we're getting some, the tide has turned for us in our favor. Boy, it's been a while.
It's been a tough year, a very, very tough year. But right now, Lisa has pledged 125. Wendy has had three pledges totaling $680. Timothy in Ohio pledged $5,000. Yeah. And Pastor Joe pledged 200 and Karen pledged 50 and Janet in New York. I don't know.
I can't. You have to bring her up because she just got Janet pledged 300. So thank you. Thank you. Thank you. This is 100, Thomas in Michigan, another 100 and then Ramona in Ohio, 300. Wow.
Janet, 300. We're off to one heck of a start. Yeah, we are off to one heck of a start. Boy, do we need this. We really needed this. This is the best news we've had all year.
It's been a very, very tough year. And so I want to thank all of you folks out there. This may be, Joe, this may be what saves this radio program here. And so the phone lines are open at 888-281-1110. That's kind of the credit card line, 888-281-1110 or 888-677-9673.
Again, that's 888-677-9673. Praise the good Lord. The calls are coming in and boy, we use them.
We really could. So while they're coming in, let's praise the Lord and let's get into the scripture. Joe, do you remember the title? James, a preacher and pastor who told them, the people, what they needed to hear. Well, here, you know, and boy, I like that. I respect that. The pastors that preach what people need to hear are not ticklers, not what they want to hear.
You know, doing the right thing, not the comfortable thing. And the reason this country is in such bad shape that it is in today is the pastors have failed. They have failed. They failed the good Lord in every way. They weren't bold as they should have been and told the truth and stood their ground.
They failed. But praise God for the remnant. There's just a small percentage of those. Joe, you know what I'm talking about.
I do. That's why I've been working with you all these years because you're one of those that never backed off once and preached the gospel the way that it was taught, once delivered to the saints. And you've been the watchman on the wall and never once backed down from anything controversial or unpleasant or whatever. Just told it the way it was, the way God intended it to be heard. That's, you know, and I can tell you, it would have been much harder for me to do the opposite. It's just the natural thing is to do the right thing and even when it costs you. And it seems like I've always been in a battle.
You and me both have always been in a big battle. And so let's get into the scripture. Now this message is not a chronological order. I want to stop and say, Bob in New York pledges $700. Thank you, Bob. This message is not in chronological order.
It's kind of a strange way, the way it's set up. People have told me that it's a very informative, good message. Now James was written before the Jerusalem Council of Acts 15. And before any of Paul's epistles affect, Wendy and Joe, James was the very first of the general epistles.
The very first. It was written afterward, yeah. Yeah, James was martyred in Jerusalem in AD 62. And here, let's start out. And by the way, James was the brother of Jesus.
Not to be confused with James the brother of Zebedee who was martyred. Earlier. Right. So pick it up.
You could say half brother, right? Yeah, yeah. Pick it up in Galatians 1, verse 19 through 24.
All right. But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother. Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God I lie not. Afterward I came into the regions of Syria and Caecilia. Cilicia. Cilicia, thanks.
Couldn't get that. And was unknown by faith unto the churches of Judea which were in Christ. But they had heard only that he which persecuted us in times past now preach the faith which once he destroyed and they glorified God in me.
Well, here, I want to go back to verse 18. Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter and abode there with him. Now, Paul, remember, Paul never saw Jesus when Jesus was out preaching until he met him on the road to Damascus after he was resurrected.
But at this point, Paul had just spent three years being tutored by the Lord Jesus in the Arabian desert. And of course, to be one of the apostles, see, there's a difference, Wendy and Joe, between an apostle and one of the apostles. The apostles. Just like there's a difference. There's no instruction from Christ himself. Right. There's a difference between being sons of God and the Son of God.
There's a difference. And, yeah, one of the things they had to have seen, personally seen the Lord Jesus himself. And so, here, we pick it up in verse.
He said that what in verse 12 there, for I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. Yep. Yep.
Absolutely. Revealed to me. Revelation revealed to me personally. So, he goes ahead. Now, pick it up in verse one and read it through verse four of chapter two.
Two. Then, 14 years after I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas and took Titus with me also, and I went up by revelation and communicated unto them that gospel which I preached of preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run or had run in vain. But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was compelled to be circumcised, and that because of false brethren, unawares, brought in who came in privily to spy out our liberty, which we have in Christ Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage.
Okay. So, now, here, these were the Judaizers. And do we have Judaizers today? Oh, yes, we do. And we certainly do. And I've had to deal with them over the years, you know, in 50 years of ministry, on several different occasions, where they sneak things into the church.
Right. They try and just, you know, change things, shift things a little, and we see it now with the women in the church, well, you know, and the sodomites. So God loves everybody and wants everybody to be in the congregation. And we see so much of that with this new world order out there, coming into the church. Well, this whole organization, I heard Prager saying, where is this Evangelicals for Kamele coming from?
Where is that? Well, you know, it's coming from Christianity Today, that magazine, it's been apostate for years. Yeah. And we've told people, and every now and then someone will tell me, I read that in Christianity Today. I read it in Apostate Magazine. But that's where that's come from. But some of the things that the Judaizers want to put you back under the laws of Moses, the ceremonial laws and the dietary laws, and one of the things they decided is that men should, in order to be, now remember, I read into some of these people when I was in Israel, there are Orthodox Jews that recognize Jesus Christ as the Messiah. They recognize that, but they're, they still want to put you under the laws of Moses, and they demand...
They want to have it both ways. Yeah. And they demand that all men be circumcised, okay? But under the new covenant, he was referring to the circumcision of the heart, not the flesh. Right. Very different.
Yeah. It's a spiritual circumcision, it's not a physical one, okay? And so, let me tell you, I think you'd be hard-pressed today to convince a lot of men to be circumcised today. And so, also, one of the things, I actually had some fellows that were attending the church that I pastor, and then going off and speaking in other places, telling people that unless you were, unless you worshiped on Saturday, you kept the Saturday Sabbath, you'd go to hell. Mm-hmm. I've heard that many times out there.
And you know, and the sad part, these two fellows kind of, they actually knew the Bible better than most, but somehow they missed Colossians and Ephesians and Galatians, okay? And so, one of the other things, of course, you had the pork police out there. You had to abstain from eating pork or eating shellfish or eating certain things. But we're under liberty, the Bible tells us, as long as it's sanctified, when you ask a blessing for the food, whatever God made. I'm not saying we should eat everything, probably, with what's in a lot of the meat today, it's not good for you for a fact, but this is where, you know, I like to go out and buy the meat that I buy from the Amish, you know, they don't give them any of these steroids or they don't give them any of the vaccines.
Growth hormones, stuff like that, yeah. Yeah. But anyhow, we actually had, and Wendy, just jump in and make a comment. We actually had a couple leave our church and she was very upset because we sang happy birthday to people. In our church, when so many, especially us old-timers, have another birthday, we sing happy birthday. And she said, because she couldn't find that anywhere in the Bible, that it had to be wrong, it had to be a sin.
Well, and then... God made it clear what sin is, and singing happy birthday doesn't even come remotely close to anything scripture calls sin. Not only that, and the next one was, we had some that demanded, demanded, that all the men in the church would grow a beard. Well, you know, at least they didn't demand the women to grow beards, of course, nowadays, you don't know, you know, right?
Who can... We live in a strange time. Yeah. Well, we have men, there was an article about, along with that, milk from men pretending to be women is just as good for babies, a hospital clinic. I don't even want to talk about that, just the thought of that nauseates me. That does go right along with what you said, right? Yeah. And then we had those that demand, that thought that, well, you know, the early church, the women sit on one side of the church, the men sit on the other, like, you know, like the Jews did.
And you know, and so those things, they'd look at, if that's what you want to do, fine, do that. But don't preach it that we're under the letter of the law, and we have to do that. We don't. We're under the spirit of the law. And you know, in our church, families sit together. And so it's been that way for all these years. So Donald and New Hampshire Pledges 500, thank you, Donald.
And 888-281-1110, that's the credit card line, or 888-677-9673. Joe and Wendy, this is a really blessing tonight, Wendy, because, man, I'm telling you, you know, both you and I have had a very, very tough year in our ministries, haven't we? Yeah. We have. It's really been tough. And finally, we're, and I'm just hoping it's not too late, we're up against a really, a real hard deadline that we're up against. Maybe it's optimism for November.
Yeah. Maybe the Lord is going to bless us and use us, and it's optimism for what's coming in November. We definitely are a voice to be reckoned with out here. And so go ahead, Joe, and read verses 5 to 10. To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour, that the truth of the gospel might continue with you. But of these who seem to be somewhat, or whatsoever they were, it maketh no matter to me, God except this no man's person, for they who seem to be somewhat in conference added nothing to me. But contrariwise, when they saw the gospel of the uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter, for he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles. And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship, that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.
Certainly they would that we should remember the poor, the same which I also was forward to do. Now that's an interesting thing, because we saw here that he referred to, over in chapter 1, to Peter is Peter, and in verse 9 he's referring to Peter as Cephas here, and so, but then again in verse 11, go ahead and read verse 11 and 12. So when Peter was come to Antioch, I wasstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles, but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision.
So here's what happened here. Peter looked like James to some degree, and also actually Barnabas when he had come, when he was just with James, and they ate with the Gentiles, they talked to the Gentiles, they fellowshiped with the Gentile believers, but when the Judaizers came along, Peter all of a sudden pretended like he didn't know them. And James to a certain degree too. It was, and so now Paul was, was to his face, and they called him out, yeah, he called him out. In our term today, he just called him right out on it. Right, and as we go through here, we're going to see that it had a major effect on Peter, because now all of a sudden Peter and James, James was the pastor of the church in Jerusalem, and so all of a sudden now Peter, as we go through this lesson, you're going to see how Peter addresses the Judaizers without any compromise, and it's kind of been that way all through there.
He was kind of a guy that, remember, he denied Christ, and then when, when Christ looked at him, and they had eye contact after Christ was being buffeted, and then the cock crowed, and Peter, right then is when Peter, I believe, got saved, his heart was broken, but we're going to play a little clip here real quick, and then we'll be back with Miss Wendy Wilson. I learned, I think I was, I don't know, 22 when I started that work. I learned that with the swipe of my pen, I could charge someone with the lowest level offense, and because of the swipe of my pen, that person could be arrested, they could sit in jail for at least 48 hours, they could lose time from work, and their family maybe lose their job, they'd have to come out of their own pocket to help hire a lawyer, they'd lose standing in their community, all because of the swipe of my pen. Weeks later I could dismiss the charges, but their life would forever be changed.
So I learned at a very young age, the power. All righty, you know what, I tell you what, I can associate very well with that corrupt judicial system that she's talking about. She was a part of that George Soros bought and paid for, and let me tell you, it's judicial whoredom, it is judicial whoredom, folks, and what kind of a sadistic attitude, she's kind of happy about ruining people's lives just with the swipe of her pen.
And you have that amongst these people, these feminists, and you run into this a lot in the prison system, I ran into some of the most conniving women I've ever met in the prison system, they want to have power over men, and I'm going to tell you, the Bible says that those that are rebellious, those women, it's the same as witchcraft, it's the same as witchcraft. And so here, look at Hillary Clinton, Drusilla, look at the power she's craved, wanted, wields behind the scenes to this day, right? Yeah, Drusilla was, Hillary is a witch.
She didn't even try to hide it, you know, that was even on C-SPAN. She was a covenant, she was the covenant that out there was in Orange County, California. And Slick used to say, to Larry Patterson and Roger Perry and Larry Nichols, Old Hill is going off to do her witch thing again, go get the women.
That was one of his favorite sayings, as soon as she would leave, you know, they'd go get the prostitutes and bring them over to Flowerwood. I mean, that is what the Democratic Party is all about today, but if you look at these women like the governors of Michigan, of New Mexico, of New York out there, these are witches. Gretchen Witchmore? Yeah, Gretchen Witchmore. But they do love their power, and they really do.
You look at just the arrogance in their eyes. These are, again, this is a political whoredom, you know, what's her name? Star Parker, who I had, I was the first one to put her on the radio. She had written a book called Whores Galore, okay? And she hit the nail on the head.
We had talked about this, and that's what God's Word, the Bible calls it, whoredom. And that's what we're dealing with today. And so, with that, I'm going to turn it over to Ms. Wendy Wilson.
And Wendy, tell us, I think I got an idea what you're going to talk about, but go ahead and tell us. Did you pick one? Yeah.
I'll take door number two. Which one was that? That was the one where they're coming against people like you. Oh, oh, the crackdown, okay, yeah. So we've been fighting this off for decades, you know, where, you know, they're trying to get the Food Harmization Act here, that's in Europe over here.
And they've been attempting on several levels to go through the back door, because you've got your congressional record with regard to supplements, so they're trying to undermine those things. So in the last 20 years, Pastor, there has been this uptick, really, in people that are researching wellness options online. So social media blossomed into a hub for this type of information. And it was extremely evident during your 2020, with the beginning of what was promoted as a pandemic, so more people during the pandemic search for natural solutions. And this was noted by the scientific community. So the statistical demand for the natural therapies was undeniable, and it was concerning to the health authorities. So it's quite possible the reason 40% of the United States population didn't get the vaccine was due to other options. Now, four years later, we are seeing a shift labeling our natural wellness area disinformation on a global scale. It's not just in the United States. Now, overseas, licensed physicians are under attack for recommending diet changes for type two diabetics.
And likewise, chiropractor Dr. Berg, who's big on social media, you often see him on YouTube offering some natural health information, and he's reporting his channel is being censored and suppressed. So it appears that the food industry and the health authorities are attempting to squelch beneficial health information because, you know, a lot of the foods out there aren't healthy for you, right, Pastor? Well, you're not kidding. A lot of them are not healthy for you. Well, a lot of the processed foods are actually harmful to you. Right. Right. They're the opposite and not just healthy. They're harmful.
Right. Well, this is a quote from Ronald Hoffman, medical doctor. He said this in May of 2023, he said, there was this massive coordinated censorship campaign launched during COVID by the FDA and the FTC threatening doctors, clinics, and anyone that told us about the benefits of natural products like vitamin D and zinc for COVID treatment and prevention, end of quote, and he's right. So if we go the way of Europe, you know, it's going to be a big change. People are going to have to make adjustments because I hate to think the United States and Canada are buckling under the pressure to adopt the European Food Harmonization Act, which strictly regulates water, food, spices, herbs, anything that you ingest. And a prescription is required in Germany, Pastor, for herb supplements now.
Yeah, I know that. I remember when they were pushing that there was some pushback on it. They really went after the German farmers and still are after them.
They're still trying to keep them down. So, so when things are regulated by governments, the costs increase. Dr. Hoffman says this, this is also another instance of US regulators trying to harmonize US law with the European Union's draconian system. He goes on to say, as our friends at the ANH International have pointed out, most botanicals in the European Union aren't allowed any health claims at all.
So how does this start? Well, several things occur when a supplement market is being changed and availability is going to change. This is how, this is really now occurring in a more severe, they've stepped it up faster. So the folks in alternative wellness, these areas are experiencing some changes. In other words, there's censorship and financial penalties. There's also difficulty obtaining a business license, difficulty obtaining business insurance, difficulty obtaining business bank accounts, difficulty selling online on certain platforms, difficulty promoting online in social media, difficulty securing distribution and censoring the use of medical terms related to product benefits. So some of these platforms and marketing outlets are unwilling to work with the natural wellness field citing liability concerns.
Now why would that be? Several pressure from the competing industries are promoting all this. Dr. Hoffman says this, once again, the government is trying to limit access to the information we have about the benefits of natural products.
Threats of large civil penalties from the FTC have been communicated. And this unprecedented move is a warning shot to the natural health industry signaling that we're entering a new area of enforcement in which the government will be even more aggressive than it has been in censoring speech about the benefits of natural products. He adds, this has become a complex issue, but what we're facing is a government led campaign to conceal the remarkable truth about the healing and disease preventing powers of foods and nutrition, ultimately misleading the public so that they spend their money on drugs rather than natural supplements, end of quote.
So we're in kind of this first phase. So what you're witnessing is the first phase efforts to transition your supplement market into the drug category. So this is expected to force most supplement manufacturers out of business. And if you don't want that to happen, well, consumers are going to need to make their voices heard and vote with their wallets to support the current supplement industry. So if we don't push back, the restrictive hoops the supplement companies will have to enter into will be increasing the cost and it will be prohibited, which means fewer products and fewer options at more cost for consumers. Here is what Dr. Hoffman adds, he says, the FTC in conjunction with the FDA is trying to impose drug standards on supplements requiring expensive clinical trials in order for supplement companies to support health claims. Not only are clinical trials often inappropriate for nutritional elements, they are not economically feasible because clinical trials are increasingly expensive. He adds nutritional elements generally cannot be patented, so the cost of the clinical trials cannot be recouped. So the government knows this, he says, so the attempt to require clinical trials for supplement claims is a backdoor ban on health information.
This makes sense if your goal is to protect the drug industry from competition, but not if you want to promote public health by empowering consumers with information so they can take control of their own health. Hold on a minute, I've got to jump in for a minute and give the phone numbers out folks, it's 888, all of a sudden we started out really good, but the phone lines kind of went dark. That's because everyone wants to listen to Wendy. Yeah, that's right, everybody's listening to Wendy. Oh man, listen. It's your fault, Wendy.
Yes. 888-281-1110. 888-281-1110 or 888-677-9673. I forgot to mention at the beginning of the program, folks, anyone who has pledged already tonight, you all qualify. We have two specials that we're giving. One is the Bible answer book, which everybody loves.
We have people that order a dozen at a time. What a great Christmas gift, it's just next to the Bible is my favorite book. And the other is a DVD that's made now, and it's two stories behind 50 years in this radio ministry of things that, as you know, Wendy and Joe, I've had a very interesting life.
No adult, never a boring day. And I mean how God has placed me in things that never would have been there. It's almost like God had a sense of humor saying, I wonder what the old guy's going to do with this one, right? He does. He picked you and I. Yeah.
And so... You could tell right away he had a sense of humor. We have these on DVDs, two hours of stories, and you get, it's the facts behind the scene. You may have heard a soundbite on the radio about a certain thing that'll happen, but this is the true stories behind all of these events, and the donation of $25 or more, or both for 50, and everyone who's called in tonight can, if you haven't got it, when you send in your money, or you could just call the office, and 440-338-1367, and remind them that you want the DVD. Now that will not be ready for about a week or two. So it'll be a couple weeks before we get those out to you. But anyhow... Well, let me just throw one thing. Just remember the website, WRWL.org, a lot of people are driving, a lot of truck drivers driving.
If you didn't get to write down that phone number, WR, what's right, what's left, WRWL.org, and all that information is right there, easily accessible. Absolutely. All righty, very good. And we'll go back. Wendy, you've got a special. Why don't you give yourself a quick...
Yes, I certainly can, but I have a little bit more information to share also, if we got time. Well, keep going. Do your... Yeah, go ahead. You've got all the time in the world.
You're young. The good news is the Alliance for Natural Health in the United States is a nonprofit that supports legislation to allow for the free flow of information about your supplements and wellness and natural things by allowing companies to acknowledge peer review studies that demonstrate the health benefits of foods, spices, and herbs without government censorship and supports free speech. So the Alliance for Natural Health is dedicated to promoting alternative medicine and is associated with the freedom movement of this information. They are located in Charlottesville, Virginia.
They were founded in 1992, and they have been a plaintiff, actually, in several significant lawsuit cases against the FDA that were trying to suspend health claims for dietary supplements. So if you don't want to stand up, we're going to lose this right, but if you want to support the Alliance for Natural Health, you can donate to them. You can also get involved.
I think they have some sort of tutorship that you can become involved. If we don't stand up, Americans are going to be robbed of free speech and supplement choices. Now, in the UK, Pastor, I've talked to a lot of people over there that we've shipped products to, and they lost the ability to talk amongst themselves to inform one another about natural health therapies. So if they're on the bus and they can't talk to each other about anything like that, they'll get reported.
And so they lost that ability to talk freely. So the Alliance for Natural Health, they say, our mission is to protect the rights of all Americans to choose natural and regenerative optimal health options for people and the planet. They add, a soft form of authoritarianism is emerging using psychological manipulation and censorship to enforce conformity in public health matters, and it's essential to oppose these efforts to protect free speech and diverse viewpoints, end of quote. So people need to decide, don't sit on the fence, decide something here, because if we go the way of the European Union, when their national health system kicked in the Harmonization Food Act, which incorporated their supplements, they lost like 20,000 supplements right off the market the first day.
Wow, can I add something to that? I remember back, telling people on the radio, this was years ago, but the people in Cuba were warning the people in Venezuela, if they went socialist, what would happen? And I remember a lot of the people in Venezuela were laughing, now we're the richest, best country in South America, we've got all this oil, we're strong, we don't have to be afraid of this socialist thing, and now you see Maduro taking charge, 8 million people have fled the country, more are trying to leave if they can, he's throwing people in jail, but the people in Cuba were warning, warning, warning about socialism, the socialized medicine. Europe went socialized medicine, they've lost their freedoms, they've lost things, and that's what they're threatening.
Now we have socialists and communists getting ready to, you know, oh, we're here to unite the country and make, you know, all this wonderful wise and con that they're throwing at us, and you're absolutely right, because they want control over everything, and allowing people to, you know, pick and choose what medications, what herbs they want to take for themselves, oh, you can't have that, you can't let the people have that much freedom, you know, that's a danger to the deep state. I gotta give the numbers, Joe, 8, 8, 8, folks, the, listen, we were on a roll, we were on a roll, we need to hear from you, yeah, it's been tough, listen, we're up against a, we're up against a very, very tight schedule here, I mean, it's critical, it really is, it's very, very critical where we're at right now, and unless we do well, unless we do well, September will be our last month on the air, that's just, you know, and I mean, that's right across the board, so we gotta hear from you. We don't like having to do these things, but in order for you to hear from us, and so 888-281-1110 or 888-677-9673, you've gotta crank those phones back up, we need to hear from you. Maybe somebody can match half of my donation to 300?
Okay, yeah, every time you've done that, so far, people have matched it, all right, do we have the magic, Wendy's magic for you, 300, all we need is 300 people to match her at 300, and we're good. People take supplements to stay well, they don't just take them when they're sick, so think about that, I'm sure your listeners out there probably have some sort of supplement in their cabinet or on their countertop right now, imagine if that got restricted, or the companies that are making those supplements you like were put out of business because they couldn't comply with the expensive regulations, but they did that with the toy manufacturers, the big government put all these rules and regulations and all the little guys couldn't afford all the testing, all the requirements, and now all you have are big corporations making toys. Well that's what'll happen is your big pharma will be making your supplements, they'll be making them in the same facilities that they're making the toxic drugs in. See, Wendy, here's the problem, you find a problem, and if you go over to Proverbs chapter 2, the people still haven't figured things out, I mean it's like, they know things are not good, but they don't understand big pharma, what pharmakeia means is witchcraft, pharmakeia, that's where you get the word pharmacy from, it means witchcraft, okay, but it doesn't, the people, they've had their minds dulled down, they've been so indoctrinated, they can't understand what is happening to them, they can't understand, here's the truth that they can't understand, over 250,000 people in this country die every year from prescription drugs, listen to me, over 250,000 die every year from prescription drugs, now, add to that, another 150 that are dying from fentanyl every year, right, and if you add all of that, this is, just think about that, you're talking about 400,000 people, Wendy, I know, I mean, can you imagine if an herb did that, you know, and these are people following the prescription dose as instructed, you know, yeah, so modern medicine, you know, is responsible for a lot of harm, you know, and I think people are starting to wake up to it, there was actually, Tucker Carlson interviewed a doctor from Stanford, Casey Means, and she was a very successful surgeon in a specialty, and she just one day at the age of 30 stopped doing surgery because she realized what the system had become, so, people need to, look at the side effects, when they, the ads on TV, my wife and I laugh, they'll be talking about, oh, this wonderful drug does this, this, and this, but, oh, by the way, it can cause, you know, sudden immediate death, minor side effects, sudden death, you know, paralyzation for life, all this kind of stuff, and you realize there's some horrible side effects in some of those, I mean, you know. Right, that's the double edged sword, that's the, you know, that's the fly in the ointment kind of thing, so, the drug may get rid of your original complaint, but it'll give you another one, now we call it a side effect, it's a common word, people don't even think much about it anymore, but a side effect means a secondary disease, and so the drug's giving you another disease, and if it were not a disease, the doctor couldn't write you a prescription to deal with that symptom of that disease, so, you know, it has to be a disease for them to be able to write a prescription, at least that was the law at one point, so, I just think, kind of at a turning point in a lot of ways, as a nation, and so we're going to have to decide. Would that include vitamins?
I'm sorry, what? Would that include vitamins? The vitamins? You know, like vitamin C and zinc and all that stuff, would that be considered with your stuff? Oh yeah, those are supplements, right now it's under the supplement category, so under your supplement act, they're currently considered foods, they've always been considered foods since the FDA was conceived, foods, herbs, same thing.
I just thought I'd clarify, because a lot of people probably didn't realize that. Yeah, so, but that line's getting blurred, little by little, see, so, yeah, so we've got to make a decision here, real soon, what are we going to put up with, what is the public going to tolerate, and I just know that if you want to spend, you know, three times or more on a supplement, then yeah, let the government regulate it, because that's what it's going to be. Not only will they regulate it, but they'll cut the potency down, they already said they'd do it! I mean, they'll cut the potency way down, they don't want you to get well. They want you... No, well, because your healthcare system is a symptom management, it manages diseases for you, it doesn't really cure you, it manages diseases for you, so that's how lucrative that is, you know, because there's no money in well people, that's how they look at it. Right, if you have a drug that gets rid of a disease, they make one big batch, everybody gets cured, and no need for the drug, but if they give you a drug that you have to take the rest of your life to stay alive, they've got a built-in what?
Autism stream for many, many years, for millions and millions of people, right? Yeah, so basically the way the business model is set up is they start with children, and they try to get children under that auspice of having some sort of chronic condition that needs management, whether it's type 2 diabetes, or autism, or whatever. So anyway, we could go into a whole different show here with this, but I did want to mention, the pastor asked me to the sale, so Apothecaries is having a 30% off sale, it's a flash sale, and tomorrow's the last day, so there's restrictions do apply on the sale, but if you're spending $75 or more, you can get the discount of 30% off.

All right, and I know what type I've been using, I've got probably just about every one of your products, Wendy, and I do use them, but you know what, I have to admit something when you just sit here, I usually have been using them as medicine instead of supplements, but you're right, I should be using them as supplements, huh? Well, supplements are bridging the gap, usually, if you want to boil down illness, disease, metabolic issues, it all comes down to some sort of failure, and a lot of times the failure is due to a lack of nutrition, so whether it's food or medicinal plants that you're getting the nutrition from, you know, those are choices, and your most bitter herbs are going to have the most nutrition, that's why they're bitter, you use a little bit. Strawberries are sweet, you can eat a lot of those, so usually your bitter herbs are going to be the most powerful. Like garlic?
Garlic's more pungent than bitter, but there are some, herbs have signature taste pastures, some of them have an astringent taste where it may make you pucker, you know, almost like a lemon would make you pucker, some of them have a taste that may numb taste buds a little bit, and you get a little numbing sensation, that's your echinacea plant, kids though, you little kids think it's hot and spicy, their numbing sensation is interpreted by them differently, and then you've got plants that may make the back of your throat a little scratchy for a little bit, but it's temporary, but these are indicators you've got a really strong dose of what's in the bottle, you know? Alright, I'm going to pucker up, and get ready, we're going to be coming up to a break, and when we come back from this break, Wendy, you might want to stay with us for a few more minutes because we're going to have Kelsey, what's her name, Kelsey Gabbert, and Kelsey Galbert and Kamala are going to get into a cat fight right here, and so we'll be listening to that, how much time do I have, one, you know, and so meanwhile, I've got to get the number out, Joyce in New Jersey, pledge 60, thank you Joyce out there in New Jersey, and again, those numbers, we've got to keep going, we have to make up for, it's been a very tough year for you and for me, and for a lot of the folks out there listening. Hey Pastor, did you say September may be the last, totally, even off of the Ohio Station? We're up, yeah, yep, we are, absolutely, we have to make it up, or it'll be, well, January would have been 51 years, but anyhow, we'll see what happens, it's up to the Lord, I guess, it's His people out there, and so we do need to hear from you folks, we really got a lot to do, and we've got to win this election, we really do, so be back right after this, don't go away, a lot to come. Thank you for listening, and we'll see you next time.
