Christian talked all life. You can put out the contact form if you want to reach me or download the podcast or check out the articles. I do different podcast so I have one that is a daily copy with Christians going through the Bible one chapter a day. So we have that one and we have the one that's just regular Christian talk, which is taking a biblical concept and really building it out over a half hour or so. So that one is different than this one. This one is the political one where we're going to look at the world do the Dow Biblical eyes, because the Bible says in Daniel Thirty five, that all the inhabitants of the earth are accounted as nothing, but God does according to his will in the host of Heaven and amongst the inhabitants of the earth, and no one can ward off his hand or say to him, what have you done? In Psalm one thirty five six, whatever the Lord pleases he does, and Heaven and an Earth, in the seas and in the deeps, God establishes governments authorities. Daniel Leve to forty four. In the days of the Kings, the God of the heavens will set up a kingdom that will never be destroyed, and his this kingdom will not be left for other people. It'll crush all these kingdoms and bring them to an end, but will itself endure forever. Romans thirteen. The whole chapter deals with the purpose of government. It's to punish evil doers and to elevate the people who do good. So J and job twelve, twenty three through twenty five, it says God makes nations great and he destroys them. He enlargest nations and he leads them away. He takes the way understanding from their leaders and the chiefs of the people of the earth and makes them wander in a pathless waste. They grow up in the dark, without light, and he makes them stagger like a drunken man. So the main stories in the news is Ukraine has been under siege for five days from Russia. Russia's mentioned as one of the major nations in the Ballabama Gaddener Ze Kill Thirty Eight. They're godless, run by billionaire oligarchs. We have a president, Vladimir Putin, who's been around the Kremlin in different leadership position since two thousand he wants to reassemble the former USS are and he's decided he's going to go in and take back Ukraine that was awarded its independence over thirty years ago. In the world is didn't do anything in advance, but for some reason the world is still looking to the United States of America to lead. United States of America's thirty plus trillion dollars in debt. It's a boarded sixty million babies. We're having black lives matter, ANTIFA, gender fluidity, all these things taking place. We're governed by people that are openly for late term abortions and for destroy playing the nuclear family. And because of that, when, when God has established and he and he's the one that decides when he enlarges, shrinks, takes down, lifts up Romans. Once says when, that when? That when a nation turns from God and they start to get into lesbianism than homosexuality, and then they get to a point where they're just like I did a podcast a day on Noah's time, where the the heart and intentions of the people are evil twenty four hours a day. Then God turns them over. Our government in the United States of America is not moral from a biblical point of view. I'm not, I'm not. I'm not picking on a party. It's not moral. We give foreign aid so we get something back. You know, we give weapons, because while we should have given some, I guess, but here's three hundred forty million dollars worth. And but we didn't. We weren't involved in the countries that we consider to be our friends. We're just giving money, where the government takes hundreds of billions of dollars of our taxpayers money and just here is so much money for all Salvador and Guatemala and all over the world. We just keep giving away money that were printing. So I believe Christians every morning, regardless off there's a conflict, regardless if there's death and struggles in Ukraine, we should be praying, we should be reading God's word, we should be in prayer. We should be peaceable people trying to make be lights in this dark world, in a chorus. When we hear that, especially our brothers and sisters in the Lord in Ukraine under attack, we should be in prayer. If we have the finances and we can support their ministries, we should do that. But we can't turn to our pagan government, our government that, because of the Supreme Court, no longer can will allow prayer and schools were allow the ten commandments to be displayed in public buildings. No, no, Bible, sir, no, nothing, nothing. We don't want to, we don't want Yahweh in the system. So this government is not moral. But the Bible says in Romans Stertein, though, that we are to submit to the government. So not. I'm not saying that we reject the government. I'm saying we need to be realistic that the the core Democratic Platform has replaced God with government, which is why we're turning into Marxists. But we need to be in prayer, like it says in Chronics, that chronicles, we need to be in prayer, but we need to repent, US, the church, and then maybe God, Oh hill or land. But we can't, we can't say, okay, let's follow our government unto righteous causes, because Vietnam, Korea, the desert, the second second time, into our into Iraq, on and on, Afghanistan. Is What is the purpose? So let's let's be kingdom focused, let's do what our government says, as long as it doesn't tell us we can't worship God. We are to respect our government because God put them in place, because Romans thirteen three says, for the rulers are not to be feared by those who do good, but by those who do evil. Would you like to be unafraid of those in authority than do what is good and they will praise you? Because if God institutes the government, we don't want to be fighting against it. Verse Peter two, fifteen through seventeen. For such is the will of God that by doing right you may silence the ignorance of foolish men. Act As free men and do not use your freedom as a covering for evil, but use it as bond slaves of God, honor all people, love the Brotherhood, fear God and honor the government. The Romans Thirteen three through four, we're rulers are not a cause of fear for good behavior, but evil. Now we're supposed to submit to the government tight as one. Remind them to submit to rulers and authorities, to be obedient and ready for every good work. Romans thirteen one that every person be subject to the governing authorities, for there's no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God. So pray for Ukraine, try to support to people if we can through different ministries, but the main story right now is the world is trying to drop a bunch of money and weapons into Ukraine to try to turn around Putin, which is not going to happen. They are negotiating for a peace treaty, but thousands of people are dying or being injured and it's not a good scene. Now the other two stories we're going to cover kind of go along with this mindset. Five days ago as a big deal in Ukraine. A couple weeks ago, mask, mask, masks, keep the mask on. Of course we should have mass vaccines, boosters right and then then we have the state the union coming up. So it's like EU crame as a big deal. Well now, if you look at the news, everywhere it's the state the Union, stay the Union and what's happening? I wrote about this on trning politics. I'm a political rodger. You can also check me out on Eric Thompson Showcom White House and Congress make big decisions on mask. California, New York, Illinois, all over the place. Oh, we don't need ask anymore. Our Mask, masks the inn't really work. Why? Because state the Union is tomorrow. During the COVID lockdown, our leaders in the Blue Conserva, in the liberal states especially, we're caught not wearing mask, not getting in the booster shots, having the parties. While they were telling Christians can't go to church, the population as a whole can't go to funerals, no weddings, nothing, can't go out to eat and no movies. While they were doing the people were not allowed to but now that the polls are really bad for the Democratic Party in the state of the Union is coming up tomorrow and they want Joe Biden to be able to say because of the Great Vac scenes that we put into place and mandated. The mask are no longer required. It's nothing to do with it, but that's what they're going to claim. So that's a big story, is the mask and all these mandates are going away for the sake of the Democrats trying to stay in power in the two thousand and twenty two midterm elections. And you'll hear about it tomorrow. You will not see people wearing masks and less say want to, during the stay the union tomorrow. You're not going to hear about them around the country. Even Saturday night live, which I didn't watch it but I heard a clip, was joking about how draconian and how out of line people were about the mass. They actually are laughing now about the way that they were being Karen's and punishing people for not wearing a mass just six months ago. They're trying to reset the narrative, which happens when you are godless and your emotional because your flip flopping all over trying to stay relevant. State the Union is going to be about. Yes, it's bad, but it could be a lot worse. If I wasn't here, not going to hear an exhortation of God. You're not going to you're not going to hear about the dependency on God. I've been wrote about the Gempesesaki was interviewed by George Stepanopolis and he said, well, what about? What about? How's Joe gonna how's Joe Going to deal with this? How's he going to deal with this poll numbers and the high gas cost? And the Biden Administration's position is, yeah, the caught, the fuel cost or going higher and higher, but it's okay, because we want you driving electric cars any way. And it's part of this, the green new deal, the great reset. By two thousand and fifty they want to have zero missions in the world and by twenty thirty they want to have deconstructed the United States, which is why you're going to see a more and more of attack, more hate speech laws, more attack on liberty, more attack on Christianity. But it's okay, though, because Jesus is coming back and we're too. We're to be waiting for the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, and we're not supposed to live in fear. So those are the main stories. Ukraine, the mask disappearing, the the attempt to deceive the nation that the Democrats were in control of the covid thing the whole time and they now have victory over it, even though they broke the rules the whole time in the state the union, inflations high to supply chains or cut we didn't stop Russia from selling their oil, even in all these sanctions. And yet our government. Tomorrow you're going to see what a immoral government looks like on display that we have to submit to because God has raised them up for his purposes. We're not to say God, why he did it and he's doing it. We're to say, Lord, what do you want us to do today, for your kingdom's sake, Rohndessantus, the governor Florida did something pretty cool. When I will finish with this, actually I got two more things. The White House is putting up a defence again around the capital because they're trying to give this impression of fear, fear. There's there's Milli, there's this, so, so, so many people want to raiden and attack us. Fear fear or fear fence? When you fencing? So they sent out a the White House sent out a memo to the governor's please send some of your National Guard to protect us. Seriously, there's going to be several hundred politicians in the capital, in the Congress, and they act like there's going to be some invasion of capital, of the Capital Hill. It's fear, Oh man, they have to have a fence. Times are so scary. Well, the people that are saying that are the same ones and in these cities around the country that want to defund the police. They're reducing the sentencing and they're not even prosecuting people that don't that steal under seven hundred fifty bucks. On and on and on. To our nations in trouble. Our nation struggling. But because God is the one that sets up governments, we have to say, all right, Lord, you may be judging us with this govern with this government that's in place. You may be testing us. We don't know, but we're not told and we're not expected to know everything, but we you are lord and we are your slaves. One of my sponsors is pure talk USA. Do me a favor, write them down. A year and a half ago, my wife and I switched off of team mobile to pure talkcom. Here's how it works. If you're at atnt rise and sprint, tea mobile, you're paying way too much for your cell service. We were, so I wouldn't. I called them up and I said, okay, how's this work? And they I got set up and they sent mailed me my sim cards in the mail. I took my phones. I did not have to get new phones and I replace the Sim cards when I turn the phones back on. Its aid pure talk instead of tea mobile. Guess what, my phones were still accessing the same five gen network. They were using the exact same towers. I had the exact same phone numbers, but my bill went down about a thousand dollars a year to only sixty three bucks a month for three phones. It's a no brainer. Go ahead and go to pure talkcom today, choose your packages, they'll send you the cards and you just saved over ten years. What tenzero dollars in that situation for doing nothing different, because you have the same number of bars, Wifi, all of it hot spots, and they don't support causes at you and I disagree with so good to peer talkcom. Their customer service is okay to in the Atlanta, Georgia area and Nice people, CEOS of veteran and they are operated wireless company by Kasomer Affairs. The Nice thing is if you go over on your usage, they don't charge you. So that bill, if your bills forty bucks a month, it'll always be forty bucks. Even if you go over on your data one month, it's not going to go to eighty all of a sudden. So that they don't charge you for going over. You can also go to get pure talkcom or pure talkcom.

But what makes it worrisome for if your Democrat, which I don't think most of you are, but if you are, I'm a conservative independent. In a new poll, only thirty six percent of voters say that Joe Biden is fit enough to lead the nation. You're hearing that right. I did or article on this training Politicscom and Eric Thompson showcom. It was from a Harvard Harris Poll on Sunday. The respondence were asked do you think Joe Biden is showing he is too old to be president, or do you think he's showing he is fit to be president? This is a pole, but Democrats, independence and concern in liberals and independence, independence consider Republicans and Democrats. Sixty four percent of the voters indicated that Joe Biden was too old to property lead the nation. Thirty six percent said he was fit enough to be president. The pole ask of similar question. Is Joe Biden mentally fit to serve as president of the United States, or do you have doubts about his fitness for office? Majority of fifty three percent said they had doubts about Joe Biden's mental fitness. Only forty seven percent said that Joe was mentally fit. How far? How far is our nation drifted? A long ways when you have Democrats Republicans and independence. Being asked do you think the president is mentally fit to be president to serve, and over half say no. But yeah, we continue with him in office and he doesn't have anyone, he doesn't have any comprehension that he can't do the job. So then, who is leading the country? Who Do you think's leading the country right now? Joe, the president, and his wife Joe were speaking at a African American history speech today and Jill had a Joe Gaff and she's she introduced President Kamala Harris. Joe's done that several times, I believe. I believe that Brock Obama what she said in a January, two thousand and twenty interview before Joe Biden was sworn in, that when asked on the Stephen Colbert show, had you ever thought about I'm sorry, back when a Donald Trump? Actually, let me, let me try to get those right here. It was a biden. Yeah, he was asked about a third term before Joe got sworn in. I get to I get the cause he he was replaced by trump, but he was asked before Joe got sworn in. Do you, did you ever? Do you miss being president and would you have wanted a third term, and he said in January two thousand and twenty. Well, I tell people that, if I, if I could have had someone that I could have put ear pieces in their ears and had a microphone and I could have, from my office, told them what to do and they could have done what I wanted, I would have been okay with the third term. In March, right after Joe Biden got sworn in. In March two thousand and twenty one, the White House admitted that Joe Biden Brock Obama were speaking on a regular basis about policies and stuff, but they didn't want to give the specifics. Why is that important? Because Joe Biden has been drifting in and out of thoughts and comments his whole time, but he's been signing whatever they put in front of him. He's never turned away. Now I'm not signing that. That I mean I'm publicly. Obviously, could you could have done that privately. I'm not around him. But so we need to we need to be praying for some wisdom for some people and that the Lord would keep Joe from pushing a nuclear button or doing something really crazy. But I think, I think Joe is really more of a Manchurian candidate. He's being controlled by people outside the White House, which is why we see the KO chaos were in. But, even saying all of this, it's all good. Nothing is surprising God right now, which is why we're told, first, Peter Thirteen, for the Lord's sake, submit to all human authority, whether kings or heads of state. Glossians three, twenty, three twenty four, work willingly at whatever you do, as though you're working for the Lord rather than for people. Remember that the Lord will give you an inheritance, an inheritance as your reward. In that master you are serving is Jesus Christ. The only time, dirty time, that we would not submit as like can act fifteen or five hundred and twenty nine, when they told Peter and the apostles, but Peter and John, and you can't mention Jesus anymore. But Peter and them answered. We must obey God rather than men, because the government can be unjust, but psalms fifty or seventy five seven, but it is God who executes judgment, putting down one and lifting up another. But Philippian three and twenty. Our citizenship is where it's in heaven and we, and for we await a savior, the Lord Jesus Christ. And lastly, when it's all said and done, in our individual walks toward sanctification, Romans Twenty eight and we know you could say it for yourself, and I know that God's working all things together for good, for me and for those who are called according to his purpose. So, if you are someone that likes politics, keep an eye in the state the Union it's you're going to be like, where are the mask why are they acting like covid all of a sudden over why are they acting like you know that that they're punishing Poutin, even though they didn't put in the right sanctions to stop from selling oil? Why? And you just look at and go, Lord, well, he's there. We're praying for his salvation, we're praying for wisdom, but Lord, help us to have our peace, help us to walk compidently, help us to be lights in this world, help us to look for your kingdom, Jesus. Thank you. If your cross may we live lives that are worthy of the salvation that we've been given and come quickly. So hopefully that helps you a little bit, but that those are the main stories. There's other things out there, but the world is in flux right now. There are people that are still flooding the country in the United States across the border there ste there's still a global governance that's trying to deconstruct United States and tear us down, and I would say the education and the immigration systems are the two main things that, if we do not, as people, vote in the Lord blesses that, then our country will be a more socialist country in the next generation or so. But in the end it's all it's all good, because Jesus paid it all and to all in him we owe right. Amen. All right, guys, we side again. Christian talked all life. Christian talked all live.
