Take her away. In retrospect, I was foolish to spend any time with him. The journal previously reported on Gates' ties to Jeffrey Epstein, including that Epstein threatened Gates over an affair he had. The two met a few times, Gates says, to discuss philanthropy. Do you think, looking back at that moment, that you were being played? Well, Jeffrey, in retrospect, I was foolish to spend any time with him, and he sort of got time with various people by spending time with other people. So yes, I think I was quite stupid. I thought it would help me with global health philanthropy. In fact, it failed to do that, and it was just a huge mistake. Has it made you more wary of connections?
Definitely. Am I wrong, but did I not hear Bill Gates a couple years back before that whole thing with Epstein, or right after the thing with Epstein came down and Epstein went to jail? Didn't Bill Gates say he really never knew Epstein? Yeah, no, that's what I remember hearing as well. Interesting now how all of a sudden it's coming out more and more now that Trump's in office.
Oh, well, yeah, I knew him pretty well, and I regret it. Yeah, and here to have Bill Gates going to Mar-a-Lago to meet with Trump. Interesting, huh? Yeah, not suspicious at all. All right, we have another clip there, too.
What is that other clip? Let me see. Go ahead. You know, I'm not having a good day. I did not get much sleep last night, and I am not up on my game tonight.
I'm very, very tired. Well, there's other clips from Dr. Phil, and it debunks all of these rumors about ICE raids in schools and the extent of which they're doing them. Oh, yeah, this is what the left is doing them. They're coming out there. They're saying that they're making ICE raids in schools and in churches, and not only that, but now they're claiming that they're taking American citizens, and they're taking them, too, and they're mixing them in with the illegals.
So go ahead and play the clip. Well, straight up, are you going into schools and arresting children at schools? No. Is anything like that happening?
No, sir. Are you going into businesses and sweeping through there and taking anybody with a tan and seeing where they're from? We go into businesses for a criminal enforcement operation, but again, sweeps don't occur anywhere.
Sweeps are not occurring. You're just not going in like seining for fish in a pond and just picking up. You're going targeted. If a criminal is working in a business and you have to pick them up there, you're going in for that target.
Absolutely. And what's happening to me, it seems that these politicians are creating what they fear the most, and that is forcing ICE agents into the community where they pick up the target and wind up picking up collaterals that may be around them, as opposed to going to the jail where they just get the target and leave. That's the game they want to play, so game on. We're going to do it. It's all about public safety. We're going to take that public safety threat off the street by any means necessary. If we can't get in the jail, then we'll go in the neighborhood.
You see what's happening now. In Chicago, the police are forbidden to help them. In other words, when they arrest one of the illegals, instead of notifying Holman and the border people, instead of doing that, they're not.
They're refusing them. They're saying, look, if you come in for these criminals, you have to find them yourself. You have to hunt them down. We're not going to help you.
The police are going to help you. Well, what's happening is that, so Holman's going in with his people, and they're hunting these guys down, these murderers and that, but when they find them, they're not alone. The ones that they're finding, they're finding with a bunch of others. So, actually, it's working out. They're making more arrests, without the help of the police department. But I think they're crossing the line there in Chicago.
I think what we're going to see, if one of these governors, just one of them, gets arrested and goes to jail, that'll stop them all. What do you think? Are you there? Sorry, I'm on the phone real quick. Oh, I'm sorry about that. I didn't know. It's kind of strange here tonight for some reason.
Sorry about that. We had a caller. I know I'm tired. Well, so, anyhow, let's just open the phone lines and take calls. What do you think?
I'm working on very little bit of sleep and kind of just having one of those nights, you know. Anyhow, the tale of how the Democrats forced Joe Biden out of the race. This is an article here by 24-7 Politics. The roles represented Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama played in the coup that forced Joe Biden out of the 2024 presidential races are well known. Little was known about Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer behind the scenes machinations to stab Biden in the back. The New York Times revealed that Schumer played a far more integral role in bouncing Biden than was previously known. The Senate's then Majority Leader met with Biden on July 13th, hours before an assassination shot, an assassin shot Donald Trump in the head and told Biden that history would remember him as a villain if he stayed in the race and Trump ended up winning.
If you run and you lose to Trump and we lose to the Senate, we don't give back the House. 50 years of amazing, beautiful work going out the window, Schumer told Biden. But worse, you go down in American history as one of the darkest figures. Well, he would have gone down as one of the darkest figures anyhow.
I mean, I can tell you, I've been around a long time. Biden's the worst president, in my opinion, this country ever had, by far. I don't even think that's a bipartisan issue. I mean, you could ask a liberal and I feel like a lot of them would tell you that, you know, Joe Biden was a bad president. The dude could barely stand up. He fell down, what, five times on TV during his presidency, fell asleep countless times, didn't know where he was. The guy was not competent to run the nation. And I don't think anybody is, you know, pushing the narrative any more than he was because we know the mainstream media doesn't have to.
So they're not. And I don't think even a lot of the people that voted for him would tell you that he was a competent person. They just didn't like Trump. Yeah, and so, I mean, no, this guy was totally anti-America. Everything he would do, he would do against America, you know. He was not our friend. He was the enemy. He, again, look, when you bring in 20 million people and you bring in murderers and drug dealers, when the federal government is the world's largest trafficker and child sex trafficking, you're not the friend of America.
You're America's enemy. He committed high, high treason, Biden did. So, if I were you, Schumer added, I wouldn't run. And I'm urging you not to run. The Times also revealed that Schumer was one of the original conspirators hiding Joe Biden's senility from the public as he was long aware of Biden's cognitive decline before the June 27 debate where Biden showed the world that he was mentally enfeebled. Long before the President's disastrous debate performance, Mr. Schumer had privately concluded that the barrier of Mr. Biden's age was too much for him to overcome.
You know, I'm not sure, but I think Chuck Schumer, I think Chuck Schumer is pretty close to 80 years old myself. I can check that for you real quick. Yeah, go ahead. Check that and see.
Why not? How old? I think he is close to at least in his late 70s. But he is 74. Well, here I thought he was older than that.
It seems like he's been around forever. Anyhow, so the phone lines are open at 888-677-9673. All right. Here we got a couple of articles.
I think if I can get them over, nothing is working right today. Medical intervention is the leading cause of death in the USA. That's true. We've been on top of this for years. Even before COVID, you have an average of over 200,000 people in this country die every year from prescription drugs.
So let me go with this article here. Hospitals in America are deemed as dangerous as third world countries due to medical intervention being the leading cause of death, surpassing cancer and heart disease. Most medical doctors in the USA are viewed as drug jugglers with limited scientific training leading to harmful practices that result in approximately 1 million deaths annually. Wow.
That's a lot higher than I even knew it was. Pharmaceutical prescriptions often contain venom peptides from poisonous animals contributing to dangerous side effects and adverse events that can be deadly. Well, we've talked about that on here many times, haven't we?
Oh, yeah. The outdated medical system heavily relies on toxic drugs causing more harm than good to patients and resulting in significant mortality rates from medical intervention. The utilization of snake venom in pharmaceutical research as exemplified by companies like Venom Tech highlights the concerning practices in drug discovery and the potential dangers associated with venom-based molecules in medicine. Got a head cold, the flu or COVID? You might want to avoid the hospital like the plague because here in America the hospitals are as dangerous, again, as in third world countries.
Don't be fooled by the bright lights the diagnostic machines and nurses camped out on the smart devices everywhere. What do you think the leading cause of death in America is right now? Do you think it's cancer? Do you think it's heart disease? Do you think it's COVID-19? Do you think it's diabetes, obesity or dementia? Wrong on all accounts.
This is not a multiple choice question. Medical intervention kills approximately 1 million people per year in the United States. Now, that's amazing. I knew it was high, but I did not think it was that high. It's insane when you think about it and just looking at the medical industry as a whole, you know, it really makes sense. If you'll allow me to rant for a minute here, it's a conversation I just had two times in this past week about the American health system and prescription medication.
I have one friend that is going to get some wisdom teeth pulled and he was asking me, you know, if I'd ever had tooth pulled, what kind of medication they give you, you know, for pain. And I had another friend that was asking me my opinions on antidepressants and prescriptions for that kind of thing. And my answer to them was largely the same. For a little context, I'm straight edge.
I've never in my life drank, smoked on any kind of drug. And that's a personal preference. I'm not by all, you know, pushing that on anyone else. You're free to make your own choice.
I think there's a right choice, but that is on you to make. But that's how I live my life. And so, you know, when I had a tooth pulled, I told them, hey, they gave me some pretty high painkillers. I never took them.
You know, you can if you want. Be careful when you do, because they are addictive, despite them saying they're not. It's the same with any kind of medication. As far as the antidepressant conversation goes, I had someone ask me if I thought that, you know, they work and if they're useful for people.
And my reply to them was, I think there is a time and a place, but we are nowhere near that time and place. We are such a society because the medical industry has become a monopoly, where it's no longer I'm going to the hospital because something is wrong with me and I want to have that something fixed by a professional. I'm going to the hospital and I'm going to tell them what's wrong with me. And they're going to look at a list of symptoms that a company has provided them and they're going to sell them that pill that that company is being paid to push on that hospital. It's all about contracts now and it's public information that you can look into that hospitals have contracts with pharmaceutical companies and three pharmaceutical companies run all of the major pills in America. I'm deviating a little bit here, but my overarching point was I think that there's a time and a place for a lot of medicine, but I think it should be a last resort. I think a lot of people suffer with certain kinds of depression, anxiety, things like that.
And we have for many, many decades. And it's normal. It's a natural thing.
That's how a brain works. You're supposed to experience sadness. You're supposed to experience anxiety in certain situations. And to that, you know, the remedy should be things around you change your habits, change your eating habits, change your physical habits, find something that interests you and pursue that thing.
Find the thing that makes you happy. Don't go to the doctor and say, oh, this pill will fix you. That's not how you do it.
I think there are certain situations. But like I said, we've become a monopoly, not a medical industry. And it's no surprise that so many people are dying from these prescriptions that they thought will help them.
Yeah, it's an amazing thing. And we've been telling, and again, we've been telling people this on the radio. It's like, I don't know, sometimes you wonder if anybody's listening, you know, for years we've been telling people. We've had doctors, those frontline doctors, those guys will agree with everything you just said. But you know, those ones that try to break away and be independent, have their own little private practice, you know, they get squeezed out. If you don't go along with big pharma, you're right. And that's where you have people, the natural past, people like Wendy and people like Peter Glidden, they try to put them out of business because they actually want to practice medicine, right? Right.
Medicine over pill pushing. I did a lot of talking there. Do you want to take a call or two? Yeah, let's take a call. We have Jack in San Diego on the line.
Already. He's still alive, huh? Those fires didn't get him.
Hey, Jack, you're in the air. Well, I wasn't satisfied with the answer regarding the drones. The way I understood it was, okay, so the FAA authorized the drones to be there, and they were conducting research and other activities. That still sounds like a cover-up to me.
Yeah, because they don't want to tell you what the research was, okay? Or other activities. Right. But they... So what's Trump doing?
He's not going to pull that off on me. That's not the answer. It's not a good answer, is it?
Hell no. So anyway, the other thing I wanted to ask you about is the ERA, the Equal Rights Amendment. It's always confused me because, let's just say hypothetically, it passes, and it's now part of the Constitution. Under the ERA, what rights would women acquire that they don't already have?
I don't think they'd have any, but they would write it into the Constitution where you couldn't change it. The number one is baby killing, baby killing, baby killing. That's what the ERA was all about. It was about abortion, about killing children.
Oh, I see. Well, I mean, right now, as the Constitution is written, it doesn't specifically deny any rights to women. Well, no, it doesn't. But look, you know, when I was a kid, abortion was murder. When I was growing up, and for hundreds of years prior to that, in this country, from the very first day of this country, abortion was murder.
Okay? And what changed that? Well, God declared abortion murder, you know, 6,000 years ago. And what has changed to that?
Well, a corrupt, a very corrupt court. And so this is why it needs to be, it needs to stop altogether. And I would love to see, you know, Trump, with what he's pushing, he's going ahead, I know they're trying to accuse him of being a Nazi and this and that, but that's America's national sin. And God punishes sin, you know, and this nation, our sewers from coast to coast run red with the blood of the innocent children. And, you know, again, God hears the cries, you know, their blood cries out to them. We've been talking, I've been preaching on this for over 50 years, it's like, well, we don't really care what God says.
You will, you're going to, you're going to, but that's what the ERA was really all about. Writing into custody, you hear them say that a woman has a constitutional right to kill her baby, that's a lie. It's a lie told by liars, okay? And these women that kill their babies by abortion are murderers.
That's what God says, God says they're murderers. So Trump is pushing for lower interest rates, primarily to make housing more affordable. But I think his priorities should be, number one, he needs to do something about home title theft. There's no point in owning a house if somebody can come along and somebody could be in a foreign country, steal the title to your house and pull all the equity out of it. There has to be more accountability to the lenders.
The lenders have to know who they're lending to or they take the loss. Shouldn't be the homeowner. You're absolutely right, Jack. I couldn't agree with you more.
You're absolutely right. That's one of the things they really need to get after. And the other thing, before interest rates drop, that's critical to home ownership. You have to be able to get a homeowner's insurance policy.
And people are being canceled left and right. I've been a member of the Auto Club for 60 years. I've had this particular house insured for 25 years with no claim. And, you know, perfect credit. Always make my payments on time. No claims on the insurance.
So I've been affiliated with the Auto Club for 60 years. And they're giving me a letter that they want to cancel me unless I subject my house to inspection and that they have a right to inspect my house. And this is how it's written. Any time they find it necessary and that I can do nothing to interfere in the inspections.
Well, what just happened to the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution? How can I be secure in my papers and my things if I got an insurance company that's going to inspect my house whenever I feel like it? And in the letter they say that if I don't subject my house to an inspection inside and out, that they're going to cancel me. Well, that's their way... My face is almost up.
I'm just waiting to see what their next move is. That's their way of telling you that they want to cancel you. That's their way of going to cancel you. Yeah. I have to move on. I have to move on. But that's their way of just telling you they want to cancel you. You know why?
I think it's because of where you live. Alrighty. Who do we have next? We got A.C. A.C., you're in the air. A.C., are you there? Yeah. Can you hear me? Yeah, I can hear you.
Okay. Last night, after I called in, there was a man from Cleveland, Al Kay, and he brought up in his conversation another issue, which he just touched on it. And I wanted to bring it up because a lot of people are confused about this. And you touched on it in your Bible study at the beginning of the show. Now this is where Mary Magdalene approached Jesus, and she recognized finally who He was, okay? And Jesus said unto her, Touch me not, for I am not yet ascended to my Father. But go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father, and to my God, and your God. Yeah, I just read that tonight out of John.
Yes, exactly. Now, notice Jesus said, Touch me not. And the reason for that was, she couldn't touch Him because He had not yet presented the blood on the altar of heaven. And so this is not talking about the ascension of Acts 1, verse 8, or Acts 1, okay? But Jesus had to ascend to the Father before He went to the brethren, and that's why He couldn't touch Him. Because Thomas was able to touch Jesus when he doubted that He had risen, and Jesus allowed Him to be touched by Thomas. So this is the reason for Him telling her, Touch me not.
And these modern Bible translations, and this is a real issue. I know they've changed it to, Don't hold me, or Don't grab onto me. Yeah, and Jesus never said, Don't cling to me.
He simply said, Touch me not. Because a high priest could not be touched before a sacrifice was to be offered. And Jesus was our high priest, and the blood He presented was His blood. So people have been confused about this. This is an ascension before the ascension of Acts 1. Very good.
Well, thank you for sharing that. And who do we have next? If I told you we had a call from New York, who would you think we had on the line? I would think we would have Clifford.
Oh no, it's me. First you were talking about the snake venom in some of these pharmaceuticals, including the COVID shot. Yeah, we had that Dr. Artis thing on here, I believe, a while back, about a year or so ago, and he was talking about the venom used from black mamba, and I'm trying to think of some of the other different poisonous snakes.
I think it's the snake from India, or there's like two of them, but he said that his wife got the long COVID, supposedly. I don't know if she didn't take the shot, but she wore a nicotine patch for a week, and that got rid of it. But he also said that there's a little bit of nicotine in white potatoes, tomatoes, and eggplant, and I think there's one more thing.
You can look it up, and that would be one way for a non-cigarette user to get a little bit of nicotine which offsets that venom. So that was interesting, I thought. Another thing, what you were talking about, like the last hour, I think there's always an aspect of looting with all the different things that the Biden administration, and the deep state, and basically historically. There's some rumors that about two, three weeks ago, the Biden team brought up people in the middle of the night from South America to help with the looting in Los Angeles. But that comes with many aspects, I think. It could be the woman, or the young woman.
It could be a number of things. There's always someone looking to loot while they're creating chaos, and you wonder if the chaos is to cover up for their own looting. They're certainly looting the people in Chicago. And the other thing is, people should be able to walk down a block without worrying about a gangster from another country attacking them.
You know, wouldn't that be something that would be a normal thing to want or expect? You would think so, but today, I mean, they're there in New York City where you're at. I've known people that have lived there for years talking about how they used to be able to just walk down to the head, no fear, walk into the sidewalk, walk into the store.
But nowadays, they do, or even going in the subway. And kings, what was that story where the price was going to go up, like the price of bread was going to go up ridiculously? Well, that's when they wanted a king like the Gentiles, and he told them, the Lord told them, let them know that, yeah, what they're going to do is they'll draft your men. This king is going to draft your men into the service. He's going to take your women and make maidens out of them and put them as cooks and domestic workers.
And he's going to tax you, and the price of your food is going to be taxed on all your food and everything. That's what he was referring to. Right, right. So that was his intention. Yeah.
Yeah. One more thing, last thing would be, this relates to a little bit of Jonah. I was looking at Psalm 121, and it says, you know, it refers to health, but it says the Lord will be your shade during the day. And I was thinking, I would classify that as practical help, because if, you know, like Jonah had the shade, if you don't have shade in some way, shape, or form, and expose yourself to say, you know, sunlight without wearing a hat at the beach, that's a practical problem.
Wow. So would you think an individual, you think it's like, not only ask for help, but practical help? Would that be an additional way to petition the Lord?
Help, give me some practical help. Uh, well, yeah, I think it would be, but God knows what you're talking about. You say that's in Psalm 121? Yeah. Okay. He says here, uh, the sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
Okay. The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil. He shall preserve thy soul. The Lord shall preserve the going out and the coming in from time and forth, and even more forevermore. And so, uh, well, yeah, he was talking about, you know, in those days, you know, the sun can be pretty tough on you working out there, uh, and yeah, just like today, we need shade, you know, we can't stay up on the sunlight all day, so it's, you're right, it's just practical help. Yeah, yeah, like practical help could be, you know, like a lot of people don't have much experience changing a flat tire, and, uh, really, even if they have the spare tire and the jack, it's, you know, they would need an assistant to almost help them, you know, or someone else to help them.
Yeah, nowadays we do it, we let younger people do it. Alrighty. Okay, well, thanks again. Thanks for calling.
We'll be right back after this. I'm blessed by you. Saving babies, teaching sinners. Hell's for losers, heaven's for winners.
This work is not where it begins. I am blessed by you. I'm coming home someday, heaven's my way, I'm blessed by you. Where the saints all stay and little children play, I'm blessed by you. Where the saints of old walk on streets of gold, I know that I will see that heavenly prize, it's no surprise how happy I'll be. Gonna see my family again, gonna be with long lost friends, maybe soon I don't know if I'm blessed by you. Gave me treasures, preaching sinners, hell's for losers, heaven's for winners.
This work is not where it begins, I am blessed by you. I'm coming home someday, heaven's my way, I'm blessed by you. Where the saints all stay and little children play, I'm blessed by you. Where the saints of old walk on streets of gold, I know that I will see my mansion on high through glorified eyes, how happy I'll be. Where the saints all stay and little children play, I'm blessed by you. Where his glory shines, there I'll abide on those golden shoulders, I'll be satisfied.
Oh, some bright day, gonna fly away, it's there I'll stay. I'll be there with you cause your words are true, I'm blessed by you. Amen, all good things come from the Lord, that's right, blessed by you. I think a lot of us here, you know, we would stop and think of just how many blessings we have, you know.
So, we were talking about that today, I think in my whole life, I've had maybe two meals sent back, I've been in a restaurant and maybe two meals sent back because you know, I wouldn't cook this right, this or that, and I don't do it, and the reason for that is, I remember where there were times when I didn't have anything to eat. And so, I've just been thankful, it may not be the best, maybe it's not cooked the best or don't taste the best, but it's food. And so, we need to know to be a bounder, to be a based, we have to realize how many blessings we have.
What do you think about all that, Stile? Oh, I completely agree, you know, it's one of the biggest shames is how easily we take everything for granted, a roof over our head, a meal to eat, even the breath in our lungs. I mean, every day is a gift, right, and until you really stop and think about it, it's very easy to just live another day and not think much of it. Absolutely, and the idea too is, you know, there are people that get angry, angry at God when things go wrong and think, Why is this happening to me? And again, we really need to stop and think, God owes us nothing, He owes us nothing, we owe Him everything, right? And so, I mean, that's just reality, and it's what you do, it's choices you make in this world today. And what happens is, God had just got an affair, God.
Yeah, He is, He's just and He's fair. And folks, for people that don't have it so good in this life, God, believe me, He knows and He makes it clear. Those that have called upon His name, those that have trusted in Him, even if they haven't had it so good in this life, and many, many haven't, okay? They will have it in the next life, okay? And those, you have God's word on that. And there's nothing more sure than that.
Right, style? Oh, absolutely. You know, it's a conversation that we talked about a little bit earlier, we talked about, I brought up the fact that I was having the conversation that, you know, just because you're feeling down right now, or you're struggling with something right now, that doesn't mean that it's going to be like that forever, and it doesn't mean that there's a prescription that's going to fix it. And I think, you know, honestly, the best remedy for it, you want to ask God, you want to seek God, you want to have prayer and talk to God, because we've been given that opportunity. He didn't have to die for our sins, He didn't have to give us this one-on-one personal connection we have with Him.
It's a blessing and a gift that we do. So, but the bottom line, you know, I have people ask me questions all the time, like, what about these people that live out in the jungles and they never saw a Bible, and they've never heard a preacher? Do you think God can handle that?
I think God can handle all of His creations. Well, I mean, as far as when they say, well, how is that man ever going to get saved? If he never saw or read a Bible, if he never heard a preacher preach, how is he going to get saved?
I mean, he might not even be a Republican, right? Right. And so, what's the answer to that? The thing I think of, and I know it's not exactly the same, but it's the man God, or the man Jesus saved next to him on the cross, right? He didn't necessarily go through the traditional ways of being saved. He wasn't baptized.
He didn't, but he accepted Christ. And I, you know, it's not, it's the opportunity, you know, maybe wasn't there for a lot of people for a lot of their life. And, you know, maybe they're never taught about Christianity. They're never taught about God.
They're never given the opportunity. Or like you said, they're somewhere that that's not, you know, a common practice or even a known language. But you'd have to think an all-knowing and all-loving God knows that. He's not writing them off because they don't speak a language. So does he give everyone the opportunities? In other words, does he implant in the people the knowledge of right and wrong? Does he? Yes. Okay, so then he would never, never judge anyone unfairly, would he? Correct.
And so, you know, I mean, somehow there's a mindset that if they don't do things the way we do it here, then how could it be? And remember when the apostles, when they ran into some people that were trying to cast out demons and they said, they're not with us, and Jesus said if they're not against us, they're with us. So here, there's a point with people, and that is this, God is a totally just God. He's a merciful God. He would never punish you for more than you need. If anything, he's very merciful. But here he takes, you know, all of these people, all of them are given an opportunity. God gives every single man, woman, and child an opportunity to receive him.
They'll all have it one way or the other, again, no matter where they are. And when people that are mistreated, like today, like we have many, many Christians, you know, in Nigeria, they're killing Christians left and right over there. Have you ever heard anything about that on the news? Of course not. Well, we've talked about it here several times. But the persecution, and then you say, God, why are you allowing this to happen to me? Why?
Okay. God allows sometimes these things, why does God allow people to suffer for his name's sake? He says if you count it all blessings to be found worthy to suffer for his name's sake, but what's the end result of suffering for those believers for his name's sake? It's paradise. Right.
God, the harder, the worse you have it here, the better you have it in glory, huh? That's the Book of Job, right? Yep. So, anyhow, there you go, folks. We're at that time, we come to every night at this time, when we give an invitation out there.
It's the most important. You know, this will be people calling with questions on that, too, but anyhow, that's the bottom line. When all of this, like everything we talked about today, everything we talked about tonight, and by the way, tomorrow night, I'm going to be much more awake than I am tonight. Not having a good night tonight, folks. But anyhow, everything we've talked about tonight, someday I'll be forgotten. You know, when you walk outside, you take a look all around, everything you see is going to be changed one day. The Lord said He's going to burn it off and make it new, okay? It's all going to be gone. There's nothing that you have or that you feel that you own right now that one day you can take with you. Like those folks out there in Los Angeles, California, in Palisades, where they look and all they see is ashes, when all that property, Mel Gibson's $17 million house, is gone. He said it's gone.
There's nothing left there, okay? And that's the way it's going to be. None of the things that seem important to you today are going to be important to you in the future. The time will come, okay?
And this is going to happen. It happens every single day to people. It happens every single day, and that's when your soul is required of you.
The Bible mentions many, many, many places in there where the Lord says today your soul is required of you. Remember the rich man who decided the crops were good? He had abundant carbs, and he said, I'm just going to go ahead and build more silos and store that food, and when the price goes up, I'll sell it. But there was a problem.
The problem was there were hungry and needy people right there that could have used some of that food, right? And so what was the Lord's response to that? His response was, today, fool, your soul is required of you, and guess what? Everything you have is going to somebody else. You can't take it with you. And you need to be prepared for that day, okay, when your soul is required of you. And it's not a difficult thing.
We talk about it all the time, folks out there. I remember a fellow I knew who was a friend of mine, but he had a tattoo on his arm, and he had a tough life. He had a very, very tough life.
And like a lot of people, and like a lot of the folks that I knew had a tough life, but many of them got saved. But this boy didn't. He didn't get saved. He wasn't a boy.
He was a man. But he had a tattoo, and the tattoo said it's better to rule in hell than serve in heaven. And I told him, I said, you don't really believe that. I said, listen, I've got to tell you something. You don't rule in hell.
You burn in hell. He was a biker. He belonged to an outlaw biker gang. And one of the things they did is, you know, they prostituted their girlfriends and their wives. And I told him, I says, in hell, Satan's the pimp and you're the whore. That's what they understood.
That's the kind of language they would understand. And I told him, you don't rule. You burn. You suffer. It's torment. And I tried witnessing to him, and he was found dead, stuffed in the trunk of a car.
He lived a very violent life, and he died in a violent way, too. But anyhow, folks out there, the bottom line is, again, the Bible, the simplicity of scriptures. Here, it was sin that caused Christ to suffer on that cross. He didn't have to hang. He didn't have to go up on that cross. He didn't have to do that.
He did it. And believe me, folks, you know, we lonely people compared to God, you know. You wonder how he could love. You know, intellectually, there's a much greater distance between God and us than there is between us and the men and the mentality of a flea. God is so much greater, so His ways are so much higher than ours in every way. And yet, He loved us. He loved us enough to, the Father loved us enough to put His Son upon a cross to take our place. And it was our sin to put Him there. If it had not been for sin, He wouldn't have had to do that.
He wouldn't have had to do that. And because God is a just God and God is a holy God, He gives you an opportunity to repent of that sin, to repent of that. Now, He demands that. See, God has standards, okay? And here, you have to obey by those standards.
That's the way it is. And so, you either repent and call upon the name of the Lord. If you refuse to do that, well, things are not going to work out too good for you, okay? It won't end well for you.
So that's what I recommend all of you out there to do. And don't think, well, don't think, not now, not tonight. Let me think about this for a while.
Don't do that. You might not have a while. You might not have a while. Nobody's promised a new day. That's why we always try to tell you.
For over 50 years, we've been given an invitation, a salvation message, and I praise the good Lord for those that have taken it. But tonight, tonight, if you're out there listening, and if you haven't made that, then don't, don't gamble. Don't gamble on another night.
Do it tonight. Get on your knees. Pray to the Father. Ask Him to forgive you of your sin. Acknowledge the fact that you're a sinner. Acknowledge the fact that you're a sinner, and according to Him, you deserve hellfire.
But He's given you a way out. If you just ask for forgiveness, ask for forgiveness of your sin and mean it. And then call upon the name of the Lord Jesus. Ask Him to be the Lord of your life, all of your life, without reservation, without any. But you've got to put Him first.
That's what He says. You've got to put Him first before mother, father, sister, brother, before yourself, like He put you first. When He esteemed you higher than Himself, when He hung in your place upon that cross, if you'll do that, then you will become a new creature. You will become a born-again believer. Now, you will become an heir of the kingdom. And you'll be indwelt with the Holy Spirit. Now, you might not hear thunder and bells ringing. You know, God sometimes works in a quiet, gentle way.
But you'll learn to grow. Did you say ten? Oh, wow, I thought you said ten seconds left. All right, we've got more than ten seconds left.
Anyhow, think about that. When you hear the preacher give the invitation, he's just a messenger. Tonight's the night. Tonight is the acceptable day to receive Christ as your Savior. Folks, there are absolutes. There are absolutes.
And He's the absolute only way to heaven to the Father is through Jesus. Until tomorrow, it's that we've come to that time, we say good night. And then we say God bless. And then we say always, always, always, ready? Keep fighting the fight, fight, fight, fight, fight. Please tune in next time for another edition of What's Right, What's Left.
