The hosts acknowledge the contributions of their global network of helpers and platforms, including EurofolksRadio.com and Global Voice Radio Network, which help extend their reach. The conversation touches on the importance of understanding complex information and how revisiting foundational knowledge can lead to growth and new insights.
The episode also explores geopolitical tensions, such as the potential meeting between Trump and Iran, and the shifting dynamics in global manufacturing from China to India. Brent and Roger discuss the influence of religion on politics and war, emphasizing that all politics is ultimately driven by religious beliefs.

[00:03:33] Unknown:
Morning, Paul. On the eleventh here, Friday again. That's and, I just see it looks like Brent did Brent show up or not? No. I see Francine up there. Morning, Francine, Brent's producer. Morning, Raj. This is a show. We always hear on Sundays. Francine plays a song, and she dips into her repertoire of all these wonderful spiritual oriented songs and plays one. Don't you?
[00:04:00] Unknown:
Yep. Sometimes they're not spiritual, but we do it anyway. But mostly. Mostly.
[00:04:05] Unknown:
Well, they had a I kept trying to hear a couple of years ago. I would kept sending Francine as Hank Williams, I Saw the Light, you know, which is a great song. And, they've got copyright concerns over there and whatnot. Somebody says that Brent shooting a message at me. Hard for me to see. Anyway, yeah. Good morning, Brent. Anyway, that they they didn't play it because there's copyright potential concerns, which I certainly understand. And then a couple of weeks ago, you brought on this Japanese band that did John Boya. There was just fantast I didn't you know, with my eyesight, I couldn't really see there were, the Chinese, but, boy, when y'all start talking about it, and they did a a bang up job on Jambalaya. So
[00:04:54] Unknown:
They did. Yeah. Sure did. Enjoyed that. Thank you, Francine.
[00:04:59] Unknown:
Yeah. And, of course, we'll have Brent. He just emailed me. So I mean, I'm me, so he'll show up in a minute. Friday. Gosh. What an interesting week. We've had a good week here on the program. One of the real ingredients that seems to help us, have good programs is when we have new students. And so we've had some of those lately, and it's always great to go back and go over all the basics of the stuff that we do. And, the other regular folks still hang around, you know, which means they've heard that probably a number of times before. But, but it's still new to you.
And the reason I think I've kinda considered this over the years, Francine. The the reason I think is because you've grown. You know, when there there's a lot of complex stuff here. Most of it is something most people are not familiar with. And so when you get confronted with it, you you sometimes it leaves you spinning, sometimes not. But the next time you might hear the information, you've grown in your understanding. So you may hear the same thing you heard before or maybe even more than once. But you see it in a new light. I guess that's the way with our spirituality too when we get zapped off the saddle on the way to Jerusalem. Right, Brent? You you you see things in a different light.
So, anyway, we've got new friends and and all that kind of stuff. It's, interesting. The country is and the world is in a well, it's just in a darn really interesting position right now. There's a lot of really diabolical and some good things happening. Brent, how are you doing this morning? Looks like you hitched your horse up out there. Came on in for Sarsaparilla.
[00:06:42] Unknown:
Yeah. We're okay, Roger. Yeah. So what, what's happening now in the world?
[00:06:49] Unknown:
Are we blow blowing up any countries yet or what's Well, we're not, but we it appears that we're threatening to. I think mister Trump is gonna have a meeting with the Iranians over the weekend, I heard. We'll see how that comes out. That is a real flash point. They can't get Ukraine started. They're desperate to go into a war to cover their financial crimes, and the system is unraveling. By the way, gold went over $3,200 this morning, Brent. That's well, yeah. So, you know, the the old saying on Wall Street is gold climbs a wall of worry. So that should tell you something right there.
[00:07:26] Unknown:
You know what?
[00:07:27] Unknown:
Yeah. I agree. But go ahead. No. I was just gonna say that that they they couldn't get Ukraine started, and it's still sputtering around up there with that idiot, run the despot running the show, with the strings being pulled from behind the curtain. But now it looks like Iran's gonna take center stage, and I think Trump's having a meeting, a phone call or something with them tomorrow. And, of course, is that we have to do Israel's bidding. You know? So, the other good thing is the majority of Americans are are not in favor of Israel anymore. That's a nice statistic right there. I like it anyway.
[00:08:07] Unknown:
You know, I saw that also, and I did I just can't help when you're working. And I I do research on things, and things pop up. You know? And one of the things that popped up is, there's a a growing, disdain for Israel in American churches.
[00:08:29] Unknown:
Boy, that's nice to hear.
[00:08:32] Unknown:
Well, that's the foundation of, American churches have been the foundation of the support of Israel since the beginning and even in in in England. Mhmm. And, that was a political political push driven, as all politics are, driven by religious affections. Whatever your religious affections are, that's the government you're gonna get. And it's impossible to separate religion from government. We can deny it. We can live in the fiction that it isn't true. That's what our First Amendment is. And I'm not against the First Amendment religion clauses, but to make the point, it's what we call legal fiction. And legal fictions are often necessary in this cruel, twisted, twisted world.
But we can't ignore the reality even if we accept the fiction. We or we will hurt ourselves if we ignore the reality that politics is driven by religious affections. And all politics, all all politics culminates eventually in different places in war. It is true. The communist understood that that war, politics is war without bloodshed and war is politics with bloodshed. And religion is what drives it all. It's impossible to have war without religious convictions. If I'm going to kill another man or he's gonna try to kill me and I'm gonna put myself up for possibly getting killed, that goes to the very deepest core of a man's understanding and convictions.
And that being true, that's what religion is. Don't tell me otherwise. That's silly. People say, oh, religious wars are the worst. No. War is killing. It's slaughter. How bad can it get? Can it get any worse than that? As though religious wars are the word no. We've tried to fight those wars that are and claim they're not religious. We did it in Korea. We did it in Southeast Asia and Vietnam, and we did it for we tried we operated under the under the the fiction that it wasn't. And I remember, who is some famous, soldier in America here recently.
His name starts with a b. He was the one that was originally in charge of rescuing the hostages just before Reagan became president. And, Yeah. What was his name? I I don't know. But it's I was thinking about it's the ill fated helicopter crash in the desert over there. Right? Yeah. Well, he was, he's a conservative and claimed to be a Christian man. But he when all this started after the Twin Towers, he made the comment that, this is religious war. Well, that's redundant. War is religious. It can't be anything else regardless of our misunderstandings of it.
But he, I think, lost his career at that point, and Bush was in the presidency and didn't want anybody to say that. Long time ago, I think it's still on the Internet, I found, they're they made videos, not videos, films, during before or at the beginning and during World War two, films for American the American armed forces to watch to understand what was going on. And one of those films from the Department of Defense was a film trying to explain why the Japs bombed Pearl Harbor, and their explanation was correct. And it goes into great detail, does a very good job.
Of course, it all comes down if there's religion, there's gotta be a law giver involved, a god. And the Japs had one, and they had deified, as they did in Germany, the same thing without, again, they in Germany, they operated under a fiction, but they had the same government. Now we don't wanna forget that Japan adopted the German the German form of the Code of Justinian. Mhmm. The code of Bismarck was the law became the law of Japan. And when it when that happened, of course, they had the same understanding of government. Government, as Hitler said, the code of Bismarck government is God walking on
[00:13:01] Unknown:
earth. Government say Nitschke.
[00:13:03] Unknown:
That yeah. Nitschke. That's why he was quoting Nitschke or if he is I don't know how to say it, but I think I'm close. And, so both of them had that idea, but the Japs, of course, the Japs had the the Shintoism, and they were willing to go to war with the world. There were six the about six organized crime families in Japan that got ahold of the government, worked the people into religious fervor over Shintoism, and manufactured it, by the way, much of it as they went. But they had the code of Justinian in place, the code of Rome, from the Emperor Justinian, and like the Roman church and the Orthodox church does, and they use that, of course, as a support of tyranny because the code of Justinian is an imperial code and government is tyrannical.
The emperor is God. Whether you call him God in in Germany, they couldn't get away with calling Hitler God. So they just called him the chancellor, but they gave him all the powers. He had all the powers that the god of Japan did, which was the emperor. They worshiped him outright and said that he was, and they had the records, by the way, to prove it and still have the records to prove that the emperor is a 42 generations, a descendant, and a 42 generation descendant of the heavenly body we call the sun. And that's what, of course, why the rising sun was on their flag. That's their ultimate, the ultimate source. They were sun god worshipers, just like the Egyptians were sun god worshipers.
They called him Ra, the Egyptians. All false government worships the luminaries of fire that are fiery, that have light. All Abraham was taken out of of the Chaldees. Is the Semitic word. In Hebrew, it's or for light. Light of the Chaldeans, they worshiped light. They worshiped fire. They worshiped the sun. They worshiped the stars. Anything that looked like it had fire or the reflection of fire on it. That's why you go into even Protestant churches today, and they foolishly carry candles or light candles. That's all Babylonian sun worship, fire worship is bat halos around people's heads. You see it in the medieval in the medieval paintings or a halo around Jesus head or Mary or the pope or some saint. That's all part of the fire worship of Babylon.
It does come down as a pagan. If you're not going to worship the maker of the sun or the heavenly bodies, or fire, you're going to worship the one who the the the what is made, the creature, as Paul the apostle says in Romans one. Well, that's what the the, the Japanese did. And by the way, Nipponese means same thing, has to do with fire worship. So this is really important to them, and their emperor was a 42 generations from the sun. He was, he is, he was, these they said, God almighty from the sun. And if anybody, was above him in a second story building when he was riding his white horse down the street, then they would be executed.
If they were above him and didn't have their blinds drawn, I should say, they would be executed. They could draw their blinds just so they don't look at him from above. They took this seriously, and they said that the time had come to draw all of the world under the nine corners of you know, we have four corners in our world. They had nine. The nine corners of the pagoda of Shintoism of the god of the sun and the emperor. Well, Hitler had the same powers, because he was under the same German code. You remember the Germans and the Japs were allies during the Russo, Sieni war, the Japanese war with Russia.
And, the The Atlas Powers. Right? Arms. What? It was the Atlas Powers. Right?
[00:17:20] Unknown:
I think they called them that, but I don't yeah. Do you remember that for sure? I'm not remembering that. Yeah. The other one was the allies, and that was us and our our allies. I think the other was the Atlas powers. I believe that was Japan, Germany, and Italy.
[00:17:34] Unknown:
I I don't know. I think so. Yeah. But, now you want you've made it, so I wanna go look. But I know that Oh, sorry. That's good. That's good. That's why we talk. But the Germans were allied with the Japs during that war and defeated the Russians. It was that Oh, that powers. Per It was It it was a what?
[00:17:54] Unknown:
The Germans provided them. No. Somebody's trying to Alan's trying. What what's the they answer Alan?
[00:18:02] Unknown:
A x I s, access.
[00:18:04] Unknown:
Access. Oh, that's pretty close to Alice. Access powers. There you go. I just missed a letter or two, dadgummit. Yeah. That's right.
[00:18:13] Unknown:
Pronunciation. But, war is God's business. Our God is the God of war. And the Christianity is a feminized name, but he's also the God of love. Did you know that in the in the Veda of the Buddhist and in the the, the, the Quran and the traveler and all the writings of Islam. The word love is never there, never connected with God. God has no love in their religion. He's not a God of love. He's a God of war in Islam, and that's all. But no love. But in our in Christianity, he is the God, the God of war, and the god of love. He is all in all. These kind of differences aren't stressed very much. If you wanna get involved with a religion that has nothing to do it's nothing but slaughtering and bloodshed, well, that Islam will Islam's your religion. That's what it is.
Yeah. Yeah. There isn't they'll say, oh, oh, no. No. We love or we have we're you've heard him say, we are a religion of peace. Yeah. I've heard well, they are. If you understand what Shalom means, salaam in Arabic, Shalom in the Bible, we translate peace, and it does not mean it does it doesn't mean today in the Islamic or in the Semitic tongue. There's about 15 or 16 of them. It does not mean, absence of war. It means presence of or of order in the midst of battle. That's what it means. David says in Psalm 23, thou preparest a table before me and the faces of my enemies. That's the Hebrew text literally. The faces of my enemies. He's saying, I'm at war.
Christianity is constant war against the evil empire, and that's been ignored, and those that are responsible to feed us the words of God are feeding us rats and mice and been doing it for years, and it's no wonder we're anemic. And we are anemic. Yep. But let's understand as Paul the apostle puts it in the book of Acts chapter 20, the whole, w h o l e, council of God. He said to the elders of my leaders when he left them. He said, I did not fail or neglect to give to you, to teach to you the whole counsel of God. That means all 66 books.
These and no others, these and no more, but that's the wholeness of it. And that's what we're not getting. So war is God's business. We are to understand it and wage it according to his limitations and his rules. And if we do not, we will pay a terrible awful penalty. For example, torture is a part of warfare with all of the world, except all the religions of the world, except Christianity. Of course, there's some religions that say, well, we don't believe in war at all. Of course, God destroys those kind of cultures. The Indians in India have that kind of a culture. They won't crush a bug or a fly.
They say there isn't. But, of course, when it comes right down to it, they'll slaughter people just like anybody else, but then claiming that they won't. This is madness. Then, of course, all false religion is madness. Well, Roger, that's some of the things that are on my mind about the world. I try to get the big picture, talk about things in general terms. Go ahead. Okay. I was just gonna say you mentioned India right there. There's a very interesting,
[00:21:56] Unknown:
parallel to the Chinese Belt Road, which I'm sure you've heard about. Right? And you're trying to link everything up all around the world. Well, we've kinda short sheeted that. Trump went in and took back the Panama Canal, and evidently, the Panamanians are behind, behind The US on that. They don't like the Chinese too much either. But the other thing is they are switching from China as a manufacturing base to India, to your India you just mentioned. And then it well, Us and the Israelis and it's a coalition of folks, but they're trying to take and it looks and appears that that's what Gaza may be about is they're trying to move over to India as the manufacturing center, not China, and, then have that belt our own belt and road that comes right up through the Red Sea and up there, and they cut a canal through Gaza. And there's a Mediterranean. It goes to Europe and The US. It looks like they're building a parallel belt road to the Chinese.
[00:23:01] Unknown:
Oh, well, I noticed, I can't find a shirt to buy that's not made in Bangladesh.
[00:23:07] Unknown:
Right.
[00:23:07] Unknown:
Right. And so and isn't,
[00:23:10] Unknown:
the population of India much more than that of China? I I don't know about much more, but it is of China. And, and, yeah, it's India's always kinda fascinated me. Yeah. I I met when I first moved here to Ecuador. There was an Indian young man that was here visiting, one of his classmates from where they went to school in England. And he was here for a month, and we got to know each other pretty well. He was a this is so unusual. Here's a Indian kid, sharp as a tack, by the way. And, he's in the hotel room next to me in this little condensed little kind of thing. And, so we get to meet, and the very first question he asked me, what do you think of John f Kennedy?
[00:23:59] Unknown:
Yeah. That was the first thing this kid that didn't even 22 years old yet is asking me. Why was he why was he interested in,
[00:24:09] Unknown:
guys? He was enamored with Kennedy, and he was absolutely head over heels with Trump. That was when he was running the first time or just gotten elected. So, anyway, I I've always kind of been fascinated in their cultures. Very interesting. It's ancient, of course. And you've got a combination of of the different religions there. You've got the Pakistanis and the Indians who hate each other like the Hatfields and the McCoys or the Jews and the and the Muslims. Same type of situation there. And they got them out of there in the forties. And people may not know the background. I've done a little study on it.
The reason was, one of these Pakistanis came in one morning and and put a bullet in the head of Gandhi. And, Gandhi was for the mixed societies, if I remember correctly. But that right there caused such a commotion that they ended up doing the partition, and that's why India and Pakistan hate each other today. They both got nuclear weapons, by the way. So, they're still at each other's throats. And then you got another group in there in the northern part of India called the Sikhs that have that turban wrapped around their head the whole time and have the place called the Golden City that they have great reverence for. And a whole bunch of them and the Indians are now up in Canada. And that's a lot of the problems in Canada is these Sikhs and these Indians that traditionally hate each other. Kinda like we got the Jews and the Arabs here. Well, they got the Sikhs and the Indians right up there in Canada. So, yeah, it's very interesting, man. Interesting ancient culture, and, I just was kinda fascinated by it.
[00:25:52] Unknown:
Well, India claims to have I'm just looking. Excuse me. I'll shut that off. India claims to have, Are you gonna calliope there? Or Hey. Can you take this, take it over for a minute, Roger?
[00:26:06] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. He's gonna go take care of his calliope there. And, Brent loves to research stuff while we're on the air talking about it, so he's gonna come back and give us some profound nugget, I would imagine. While he's doing that yeah. Yes, Larry.
[00:26:23] Unknown:
Yeah. When he comes back, I have a question for him. He was talking about how the the Japanese flag has, I guess, the the rising sun on it, and I had a question about that.
[00:26:36] Unknown:
Okay. Well, he may be back now. Brent is acting. I'm guessing. I will wait for him. Well, no. No. Well, let's hold it till he gets back. I had something I wanted to insert too for the newer folks, and it was Brent that brought Brent has a wonderful talent, of of taking complex things and simplifying them down to understandable kinda either or situations. And, what he brought to my mind here that clarified so much for me, years ago. If you don't know, Brent and I have been doing these shows for twelve or thirteen years on Friday. So, anyway, one of the the ways Brent brought a perspective to us was to break down the difference in the law of the city and the law of the land. And there's only two groups of laws. There's a the the law of the city, which combines all of these Roman code of Bismarck, code of Napoleon, all, derived from the Babylonian merchant code and contract.
And then on the other side, you've got the common law, nature, nature's god. And the difference in the two is that in the law of the city, the legislation is drawn up for a, expected outcome. In other words, they write the law to achieve a a specific outcome. In the common law, we have a thing called due process, and we emphasize the process. And if the process is done correctly, then the outcome will be correct no matter what it is. And that's the difference. As complex as all this law stuff is, that's as simple as it is right there. Brent, I'm assuming you got the calliope put to bed. Right? Oh, yeah. Yeah. I made an appointment to talk to fella. But,
[00:28:15] Unknown:
I was just looking here. India is almost one and a half billion with a b as in bravo people. They're they don't lack a workforce. No. That's for sure. Yeah. And, the population, of course, they've always been always been, all these, Eastern religions that have destroyed them for centuries. Mhmm. Nothing but made them live. They they live in squalor still. Yep. I had a friend that worked at, Purdue in in the ag department and would travel, around the world with the professors that the ag professors, and they would be hired to hold seminars on agricultural methods and trying to spread spread, agricultural progressive agricultural methods to people that are starving.
And one of the places they went was India. And what I remember, that's been probably ten years ago. What I remember coming back with, videos on their on their what do you call iPad or whatever it was? Yeah. I didn't see anything, but but trash being blown around, piles of trash up against every building, and cows wandering anywhere they wanted to wander. That hasn't changed. They still live like that because of their religion. And in some places, it's monkeys. Well, monkeys ever and they're nothing filthier and more dangerous than a blasted monkey. I mean, monkeys are well, I could tell you, I've had some experience with monkeys, Roger. I don't know if I ever told you that. But, well, I was in the on the other side of the world in the Southeast Part of The Orient, and the monkeys are thick there. You know? And they get over in the filthy critters. You know? They're they're like they're like, bottom feeders, bad. And they get over in the trash receptacles, the bins, you know, those big bins, and that's where they'd eat. And if you were dumb enough to crawl over in there, you well, people want to catch monkeys. Americans get over there, and they wanna catch a monkey and have a pet.
That's very dangerous. Yep. And then you find out that people over there eat monkey meat and barbecuing it. Well, knowing what monkeys eat, I'm not about to eat any monkey meat. Although I have to say it smells as good as barbecued chicken. Just let, you know, guys
[00:30:35] Unknown:
If you ask them, they'd probably say it tastes like chicken.
[00:30:39] Unknown:
Oh, yeah. It tastes better than chicken, frankly. But, they would, they cook it on the street. I mean, it was just sell it to people, tell them it was chicken, you know, things like that. Well, Christianity, just get to the bottom line here, friends, the practicality of it. Does Christianity give you an opportunity to be snatched from hell? And the answer is yes, it does. But most Christian people, and this has been my observation, that finally it's come through too in the new testament. The new testament stresses above all the major theme is how do you enjoy your Christian life? Cause most people don't, most people just got fire and fire insurance.
They're snatched from hell. And they just they, live, frankly, miserable lives, and their countries go to hell in a handbasket like we're seeing happening in America. And the reason for that is this, because Christian folk and their Christian folk snatched from hell, elect of God. John says, to the ones he was writing to, I write these things to you that your joy may be having already been fulfilled. Jesus Christ has done everything that is possible to be done to give joy to his people. Joy, thrill. The word, the, the word is better understood as thrill, a constant thrill of life, to be alive to life. I write these things to you so that you, you, you're a Christian folk, but you're not enjoying it. Paul, the apostle said the same thing. He wrote a lot of books in the new Testament, you know, the same thing.
How do you enjoy the Christian life? How does it become a thrill when you get up in the morning, you're glad and you're ready to attack. You're ready to go to war. War is our business, and business is good as the that's the same in the American military. They're trained for it. They're young. They're crazy, and they want a chance to do it. They really do. And that's the way it's supposed to work. That's why young men go to war. But in in the Christian life, it's the same thing. Our weapons are are more powerful. You know, war with with guns and clubs and all the kind of weapons men have, that's a second option, second option. And it's the fallback position, and it doesn't work that well, frankly. No. It's just the best we can do. But the war that we're to wage as Christian men and women has permanent results that prevent the clubs and the artillery and the bullets and the shrapnel.
And it's a we we win it. If we are Christian men and women, God will move us to want to know his law. David said in the Psalms, how I love Psalm 119, the longest chapter in the Bible, 176 verses written to extol and and, well, to extol the law of God, to lift it up, to say what it is. And David says over the king David of Israel over and over and over again. Oh, thy law is perfect. It's perfected. What does perfected mean? That means you can do something else to maybe try to add to it, but it will not make it any better than it already is. Like we say of filing a deed down to courthouse. Mhmm. You can pay money for a house. You can get a contract, but you haven't perfected the deed until you file the deed at the courthouse. Now once you've filed at the courthouse, there's other things the law would allow you to do
[00:34:28] Unknown:
to cinch that deal up and make sure you've got it. But once it's filed at the courthouse, there's nothing else you can do to make it any better. It's perfected. It's final. That's it. For the audience who may not know, that's the property records at the courthouse. It's in virtually every county in the country that we talk about occasionally here filing putting our affidavits on those roles, which is what John and Glenn taught us originally because we don't know about secretary of state. Go ahead, Brent. Well, you're just making the point, and I appreciate it. Yeah. That's the perfecting.
[00:34:59] Unknown:
A sworn statement is the perfecting of the book of Hebrews in the Bible says, once a man gives a sworn statement, that ends all dispute unless unless there's a challenging sworn statement. But Mhmm. By standing by itself, the Bible is right. And in our common law tradition, that that's true. Once the sworn statement is entered, until it's overcome
[00:35:25] Unknown:
Right. Or it it's final. And that's what we're talking about this yesterday with affidavits. I was trying to explain to some of the audience how powerful affidavits are and why. And that you can really incorporate this information into your day to day life, which can really assist you. For instance, the example, you gave yesterday, you get in a car wreck, and you go home, sit down, write an affidavit, go get it notarized the next day, should that come to trial. Yeah. Well, here's my affidavit as to what happened. Where's yours, sir? Yeah. They're Who's gonna who who'd you think they're gonna accept?
[00:35:58] Unknown:
Yeah. Yours. And all that's good. And, yeah, we need to talk about the importance the importance of sworn statements. And what is a sworn statement? What value is it? Why do we do it? Number one, we make sworn statements because we are at heart liars. We make sworn statements because because we are at heart liars. If we weren't liars at heart, we wouldn't need to be making any oaths, swearing into statements. We just say them. When God when God, says things, he just says it. But just to cinch it to make it obvious to us, he says, but I have sworn. And he says in the book of Hebrews, the same book I was talking about a while ago, in the book of Hebrews, having no one greater to swear by, I swore by myself.
Cause there is no one greater to swear by if you're, if you are the maker of heaven and earth, but us mere mortals, we swear by one greater than us. That's what an oath is, is it, it is to promise to support your promise, whatever your promise is, calling in one greater than you to force you to do it and give you the consequences to visit the consequences of not doing it upon you. That's heavy duty stuff, friends. The Bible says that every sworn statement of men, every sworn promise, God will require of him, period. How dangerous can it get?
We swear as the Westminster symbol at Westminster said, we swear by that holy and dreadful name of God, the creator of all things, him and him alone. And he commands, if you're going to swear, you only swear by him and no other. There is no prohibition in the Bible against swearing as the Quakers and other groups have always maintained. That's not true. That's clearly not true, although they say it. We are let your yes be yes and your no be no. Yes. That's true. Always do that. But there's when it comes time to swear an oath, every time you take the Lord's supper, I'd say this to you Quakers. Maybe you don't take the Lord's supper, but every time you take the Lord's supper, you're swearing an oath. Every time you get a person gets baptized, they're swearing an oath.
Not that we should swear flippantly as Jesus Christ said, do not swear generally, flippantly, holy. In other words, don't swear at everything. That's very dangerous. The Bible says if you're going to swear, you swear tightly to a specific promise and make sure that you can follow through on it and understand that you've committed yourself to follow through on it no matter what it does to you. This is dangerous stuff. You swear an oath to support and defend the constitution of The United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. I have taken that oath six times in my life. Six times.
And when I got older, I got to thinking about it. I have the the truth of what the Bible says about the oath has come in on me. I don't take it lightly. Why? Because the Bible says that God will require it of me. So what am I gonna do? Do the best I can to support and defend the constitution of The United States against enemies, foreign and domestic. But that's not the only oath I've taken. And by the way, the oath did not give any duty to me. I already had that duty. If you live here in America on this land, you're domiciled here. This is your home. You intend to come back here no matter where you go.
Well, then you owe a duty to this land to support and defend the law of the land, which is our constitution of The United States. That's what the Bible teaches, friends. And if you want that to be fleshed out, get the book that's, a thousand pages long for an era and read it, excellence of the common law, and we'll explain it from a biblical point of view. You can get that at commonlawyer.com. No, I'm serious about it. Of course I am. This is important stuff, but it, an oath does not put a duty on anybody. It only strengthens a duty you already have. That's what an oath is. An oath is a strengthening of a duty that you already have.
And so when you get on the witness stand, say, I I swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. So help me, God. You already had a duty to tell the truth. You're not supposed to be a liar in a court of law. You ought to know that. Well, why do we have the oath? The oath is designed to awaken any sensibility you have in you of of God visiting you if you don't do what you promised to do. Does it do that? Very seldom. Very seldom does the oath ever awaken anybody's conscience as our common law says it's supposed to do. That's the reason for the oath. Very seldom does that happen, but we do it anyway.
You know, people constantly well, let me back up. There's so much to talk about here. We were talking the other day about the head of the FBI. And if I don't get his name right, I think maybe I got it now. Oh, no. No. I've lost it. Do you remember how to pronounce his name, Roger? Well, it depends on who you listen to. I've heard it cash, and I've heard it cash.
[00:41:16] Unknown:
So I'm not quite sure on the exact pronunciation, but he is a Patel. And, he is, he and both, who's the and I just saw her last night. Tulsa Gabbard, they're both Hindis.
[00:41:32] Unknown:
Yeah. And they they they took an the oath of office, put in their hand upon their and it wasn't a it wasn't a Bible. It was their holy writing. Uh-huh. And, God can use anybody.
[00:41:47] Unknown:
By the way, you know where she was born, Brent? Where? American Samoa.
[00:41:53] Unknown:
Kind of funny, ain't it? Yeah. Plays it. But the they did that, put in their hand on the holy book, the the book that they say is holy. That whole that whole idea of putting your hand on the book, that's Christian culture. That's Christian culture. They said, well, I gotta do something. I don't wanna do the Bible. I'll do it on this book. See? So they they, they conform. You see how Christian culture is powerful. I'm not saying it was right. Matter of fact, that's contrary. The Bible says that's that's spitting in God's face. Let's get real here. What does the Bible say? The Jesus Christ made it clear, sermon on the mountain, when he's unpacking the law of God, and he is the law giver, by the way, of the law of God. He's the one that gave the law to Moses on the mountain. He's the one that created all things according to the Bible.
But he said, do not swear by any created thing. Do not swear by the gold on the temple. Do not swear by the temple. Do not swear by heaven. Heaven to Betsy. I've heard people say that growing up. Heaven is the Betsy. That's a dangerous thing to say. Across my heart, hope to die, stick a needle in my eye. That's swearing by yourself. That's the height of arrogance. And by the way, again, spitting in God's face, the swearing of an oath is an act of religious worship. Again, quoting the men of Westminster, they compiled the Bible's data on the point of swearing and oath. They said, well, it's an act of worship. Why? Because you're calling in the maker of heaven and earth, and you're not allowed. You're not allowed as a member of Adam's race to swear by anybody else. This is fundamental.
Do not swear by heaven because it is the throne of God. Do not swear by anything on earth because that's his footstool. That's all it is for him, but you swear by him. And he says, it's a personal thing to me. If you don't swear by me, if you call somebody else in to, to support your promise. Remember David. David, king of Israel, got the bright idea. He was gonna take a census of and and calculate how many fighting men he had in Israel in the militia of the 12 tribes, and he did. That ticked God off because he did it for the wrong reason. Ticked him off.
He wanted to feel like he had a lot of power behind him, and God says, of course, you don't trust in military might. You trust in me. Me and me alone. Mhmm. And that's what David finally, God said, oh, I'll give you a choice. Either I'll slaughter a lot of Israelites or I'll slaughter you and and, or I'll I'll I'll bring, other people into slaughter you. That was the whole idea. And get the crux of the of David's response was this. David said, in essence, I I throw myself on the mercy of God, you. And I don't I don't wanna be in anybody else's hands. I wanna be in your hands. If I need to be punished, I want you to punish me.
I don't want my enemies to punish me. Well, it's the same thing with an oath. Why would you call in your enemies demon gods and all gods are demon gods except the true god. The demons have fashioned, and the demons get you to bow down to them, to pay a balance, to attribute worthy ship, worship to them, the, worth to attribute worth to them. Why would you do that? That's a spitting again in God's face. Like like the fellow said, it'd be better. Sure is. I'd rather be hung by my friends than a bunch of a bunch of strangers or enemies. Well, that's what David said. Listen, you're my friend. You're my redeemer.
I'll put myself in your hands and whatever you do to me, I know will be just. But to call some other demon god in to visit his vengeance on me if I don't keep my promise is not only stupid, it's dangerous. And I would say to you folk out there, be careful. Jesus Christ was clear on that point, and he did not forbid in the Sermon on the Mount as the Quakers and other groups say, the not taking an oath. I can count six times at least, if not a dozen times. It depends upon how you look at it. Paul the Apostle swears an oath writing to the Corinthians. He's so ticked off at them. They're so cruddy, the cruddy Corinthians.
A Stedman always call them a first and second Californians. They were cruddy, man. I mean, you know, they were Christian get this, Roger. Get that. They were Christian folks having been snatched from hell and they were living like animals. And that's the point I was making at the beginning. Most Christian folk do. If you don't know the law of God, you don't know that the law of God is just the will of God. If you don't know what's the what's the law, what's legislation. It's the will of the legislature. That's what it is.
It's the will, what they want. Well, what is no different with God himself. His will is his law. And if you don't know what it is at all, how in the Sam Hill could you possibly follow it? Do it. And there will be no joy in the Christian life. If you don't do it. I write these things to you, that your joy may be having already been fulfilled. That word fulfilled means fully unfolded, perfected. There's nothing more you can add to what Jesus Christ did. No. No. You can't go to mass. You can't say, Hey, ma'am, hail, marriage. You can't walk an aisle at a Baptist church and fall down, and I think that's gonna save you. You can't you can't even keep the law of God. That that won't save you.
That if that's what you think. No, you're sadly mistaken. No, God snatches people from hell without any of that. But then after he snatches them from hell, after he took the nation of Israel out of Egypt, after he brought them through the Red Sea, Yeah. Then he takes them to Sinai. And what does he do? He gives them a written expression of his will. The outcomes he wants called the 10 commandments. That's for God's people. Nobody else can can keep them or do them consistently. They have not the power. It's simply not there. They can try to do them. They can try to hold themselves to them, but the power to do them, as Baggo, the British barrister said a couple of hundred years ago, they have everything, Rome and their law. They had it all figured out in their law. The Greeks had it all figured out in their law.
The, the law of the city that could have just Indian looks good. I mean, how can you complain about what it says? It has moral standards in it. The problem is she's got the wrong God. Government does not God. And anything that says it stands in the place of God, which are the theory of the Roman code. The theory of the canon civil laws of Rome, priesthood stands in the place of God, the place of Jesus Christ, where Jesus Christ's friend, that's the very definition of antichrist. My friends, listen, I'll quote my dad here. Let's see. How did he say it? We had a family get together a year or two ago and a lot of folk were there and I say, okay, we're getting ready to leave. Dad, do you want me to pray or you want to pray?
Well, most of the time he's being as old as he is. He said, well, you go right ahead. He just tired, you know? But he, I, then I went right ahead and I prayed. And then, then he, before I got done right at the very end, he piped up and he said, hear me now, dear Christian friend, a godless life brings a godless end. So keep the faith in God. We trust Now I've got it messed up. A godless life brings a godless sin, so keep the faith. Well, I don't remember the rest of it, but it I wrote it down, Roger. It was so good. I didn't know. That's unusual. Yeah.
Yeah.
[00:50:12] Unknown:
Speaking of getting old, Oh,
[00:50:16] Unknown:
fuck. And I resemble Keep the faith.
[00:50:19] Unknown:
Oh, hell. And in the end of it was because, faith in God is wisdom's root. That's what he said. Faith in God is wisdom's root. Let me try it again. Hear me well, dear Christian friend. Now we're talking about Christians that do not have the enjoyment that God wants them to have because they don't know the law of God. They don't know the law of God. They don't do it. How can you do it if you don't know it? Hear me well, dear dear Christian friend. A godless life brings a godless end. So keep the faith and in pursuit, for trust in God is wisdom's root. There it is. Got it.
Yeah. That that's good advice. Of course. It's just what's that?
[00:51:07] Unknown:
Paul's very, very good advice. And I'm gonna stop you right there so you can talk about commonlawyer.com. And Oh. After we get past the top of the hour, we can open it up for questions or comments.
[00:51:21] Unknown:
Well, Larry's sitting there in first place waiting and frothing at the mouth. So go ahead, Brent.
[00:51:27] Unknown:
Well, I'm I'm gonna tell dad that you said that, Paul. I'm gonna text him or well, I text mom. He doesn't do texting. Mom does. She she's pretty progressive with all that technical stuff, but he'll be encouraged. So thanks, Paul. No. I thought the same thing. I think every every Christian man and woman ought to have that one memorized, and I'm trying right now. As you know, I'm a little slow on the uptake. But the more I say it, the more I'll know it, and I don't wanna forget it. It's just a a a succinct way to put the Christian life. This is Brent. Brent Allen Winters, common lawyer dot com. W w w dot common lawyer dot com, common lawyer dot com. Go to the website commonlawyer.com and take advantage of the resources we have there. The winterized version of the Bible, a common lawyer translates the Bible from the original tongues, they're about 35,000 footnotes explaining why it translate this way or translate that.
Over 200 appendices, tracing major themes through the warp and the wolf of the text of the context of the Bible. I translated it for myself. I am the target audience, and I use it to teach, but people have found it, useful to them, apparently. One gal down in Australia ordered it and then called it, the winterized version, the winterized version of the Bible. So we we say that sometimes, but it's just a translation from the original tongues. We call it the good book uncooked. I don't wanna cook the book. I want to deliver it up just the way just the way it would deliver to me and be as colorful and graphic as I can. And so I translated it for purposes of teaching. And when I look at the text of my translation, I pretty much know what the the Greek Koine Greek of the New Testament or the Hebrew or Aramaic of the Old Testament is because I translate. One of my purposes is to not use any Latin based words that makes it more earthy, and to translate every Hebrew root word and every Greek root word with the same English word throughout.
You know, the King James Bible I've found in the King I like the King James. It's was translated for beauty and elegance, not accuracy.
[00:53:41] Unknown:
And
[00:53:42] Unknown:
now that darn thing went off again. And then he wants an airplane. There are some, yeah, there are some words, some Hebrew words in the Old Testament that I counted are translated with 50 Hebrew root words, 50 different English words in the King James Bible. Yikes. A lot of them maybe with a dozen or so. A lot of them with half a dozen. And that is done so that it will flow and be beautiful. And that's good. And it is beautiful for what its purpose is, but that's not my purpose. My purpose is to add color to each words, each of the words, the complete color, the nuance of them. And sometimes I translate with hyphenated words because you can't get what the Hebrew, the Greek word says in one word. Well, that's the the winterized version of the Bible, a translation from the original tongues. Then also, the book mentioned a while ago, excellence of the common law, 957 pages, tracing the the the and comparing and contrasting the law of the land. It's comparative law text. The law of the land and the law of the city on every continent and every age, beginning with the settling of the city of Babylon and bringing it right up for the present.
The only way to understand our common law is to compare and contrast it with its ever present antagonist, the law of the city. Another name for our common law, the law of the land. Another name for our common law is due process process. Due process. Our common law doesn't include due process. It is due process. And it's more important according to our our God that we stress how h o w we go about doing things than it is stressing what the outcome will be. And he's got the outcome wrapped up. The 10 commandments to give us the outcome. Check your premises. When it's all over, have you violated the outcome? That's God business. He also gives us the fairness, which is due process. And we have an adversarial tradition, unlike the law of the city, which it purely, the canon civil laws of Rome, inquisitorial.
Our chief, tool of truth finding is not the oath. I wanna mention this while ago. It is cross examination. Cross examination only exists in the few common law countries in the world. The chief truth finding tool in the law of the city is torture to various degrees, sometimes mild, jail, separation of family, withholding of government privileges, sometimes sometimes, waterboarding. The Bible doesn't allow things like that. Neither does our common law tradition. Never has. Why? Because our common law tradition is all about decency and fairness in a fight, adversarial, not inquisitorial.
Well, that's what we have there. Plus a lot of other books, different subjects like the fourth amendment jury duty, written by yours truly. And also the law school, winners in, we teach courses. We're teaching a course now on Christian nationalism, trying to determine or kicking around the how, what, why, when, where, who. Is it possible? Is it good? Is it bad? Are we a Christian nation? Have we been one? Should we try to be one? Have there been other Christian nations in the world? Yes. Some were de facto. Just Christian nations, in fact, like ours. Some are Christian nations by law, like England, like like, Armenia over there near Asia Minor, First Christian nation in the world by law.
So all these different things, we're just talking about it and how it works and what's best. Roger, are you gonna say something?
[00:57:22] Unknown:
I do have something to say, but, it we're right. Paul given it is and you finishing up, so I'm gonna let you guys roll on, and I'll inject it in a minute. Hopefully It'll be done. Good. Well, just go to commonlawyer.com.
[00:57:33] Unknown:
You can listen to us on the radio. A church on Sundays, in church, I n n, connected with Winters Inn, the law school. And we're going through the books of the Bible. I like to do things, which is best really, I think. Cause by clause and blow by blow progressing through the writings of legal significance, such as the Bible, the greatest writing of legal significance, the law of God, everything about it expresses his will, even the gospel. Even the gospel of salvation without the works of the law is an expression of his will, and the Bible makes that point. Well, thank you, Roger. Go to tomplayer.com
[00:58:09] Unknown:
and yeah. Go ahead. Yeah. And I I encourage y'all to go over there also. If you don't have a church home, Brent, didn't include that he does a church service on Sundays and a class on Saturdays, and he does these in classes on Thursday. And you can, access them by going to the website and going into Winters Inn, I believe. He's got a whole bunch of stuff on Magna Carta and and all all these things that he does with a constitutional sheriff in, Bear what's the county in Michigan? His name's Darleaf.
[00:58:44] Unknown:

This is the Radio Ranch with Roger Sales and the cohost Brent Allen Winters. We'll catch you back here Monday.
[00:59:56] Unknown:
No? Yeah. Monday. We don't see do we see him tomorrow? Oh, some of them we might. Okay. Larry, I know you're there. Hold on just a second. Alright. It's something I've been thinking about all week that I wanted to put in front of Brent and see if he's seen it yet. This week over there in the European Union, you know, the guy that used to run the council, they're all they're not elected. They were finagled to fit in that seat. And, so the guy that was there left, and there's a female there now, one of these countesses, Von Bergenstein or something. I can't remember her name, and I'm sorry.
Did you see her announcement this week? No. What was it? Well, Europe, it seems, is now under the, law of the, Talmud. And she started listing out all the things, that they can and can't do and this, that, and the other. I kinda thought it was Christianity was out of Europe, but evidently, that's changed.
[01:01:00] Unknown:
Wow. So is she a a Talmadist or something?
[01:01:04] Unknown:
I think so. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, I see. And little things like it's so funny. Well, I didn't catch all of them, but one of them is like, well, this is what you do if you're away from home on Friday night before the Sabbath. You know, that kind of stuff is all these rules and Pharisee rules and whatnot. I just wondered if you'd seen it. I was gonna look for it and send it to you, but I couldn't find it. So, you know, I did see it on AJ, so I know it's true. Well, it doesn't doesn't surprise me. See, all of
[01:01:38] Unknown:
the the Christianity, it has been since the days of Esther in the Old Testament Yeah. And up until, presently, under by the allowance of God, we have to recognize that he's sovereign. But under the negative, ugly influence of Babylonian Judaism, I say these things because that's what Jesus Christ stressed in the gospel records. Everything he said, for example, the Sermon on the Mount, very famous, everything he said in there was a slap in the face to some doctrine of of, Talmudic Judaism. He he said those famous famous lines that get over and over.
He said, you have heard it said, but I say unto you. Well, he says that several times in the Sermon on the Mount. Now at that time, what was called today the Talmud and the Mishnah were not reduced to writing. They were hidden secret oral tradition called, in the New Testament, Jesus Christ calls it the tradition of the elders. Right. And it wasn't written down until five hundred years after they murdered him. Yes. And the reason it wasn't written was because they didn't want anybody else to know what it said. And they called and and you see this in the New Testament where the rabbis, the Pharisees, call all of their fellow countrymen that, I'm quoting the Bible, that rabble who does not know the law.
Now when they say law, they're not talking about the Bible. They're not talking about the law of Moses. They're talking about, they believe falsely. It's not in the Bible. There are 70 elders in the Bible with Moses in the old Testament, but they add to it and say, well, God gave those 70 elders, a true law, what the law really means. Yeah. And that was handed down to us, rabbis, mouth to mouth, and we are in that line of succession like the Roman pope. You see? Right. And that and there that's not in the Bible any more than, there's a line of succession coming from Peter being first pope. That's not in the Bible anywhere either, not even a hint of it. Well, that's what they say, and all false religions does that. You know, Islam does that too. They say we have the the true understanding of the Quran is in is an oral tradition that is handed down. They have a special name for this group of men that are specially trained to understand it. If you'll notice about the Quran, they never talk about statutes, commandments, and judgment. They never really say what it means. They just hate everybody and wanna go to war and kill people. No. That's the truth. And then they say when they say we're a religion of peace, they yell.
As you understand it, as as the Semitic world understands peace, order in the midst of battle because that's the way you win battles, by maintaining chain of command and order and trying to destroy the order of the other side. That's the way you win a football game too, by the way, trying to destroy whatever plans they have. And you use some pretty rough methods in football, and it gets rougher in war. It's all the same, but they say I say the same war is the same. They say we maintain the order. Well, what is the order? Do they have commandments, statutes, and judgments like we do? No. No. All the Bible's built on command use commandment statutes and judgments. That's why Jesus Christ gave his commentary on his law and the Sermon on the Mount in a fundamental way. You have heard it said. See, that's oral tradition.
But I say unto you, he was talking to the Pharisees, but I say unto you, this is the way this is what the law really means. It doesn't mean that. And then they go on and say, in Judaism, they say that this tradition of the elders, now the Talmud and the Mishnah that has been handed down orally so nobody else would know it, that's that's the true meaning of the law, and only the elite are allowed to know what that is. Just like in Rome, they say only the priest are allowed to interpret the Bible. You aren't allowed to read it. You wanna know what it means, go ask a priest. He knows. The same thing. False religion is always the same. It's called secret knowledge.
It's called degrees of knowledge. And false religion always says there are the haves and the have nots. But what does the Bible say? The Bible says, same book that says, I write these things to you that your joy may be full, first John. Then he later says, or not very much later, he says, they say they know things you don't know. But I say, and John says you that are born from above, I'm not quoting exactly, but this is the idea, you know, all things you have access to all truth. That's us friends. Nobody else has access to it. And even if they saw it, even if they wrote a book about it, it would never strike home to them because they're ever learning as Paul says and never able, never even able, can't come to the knowledge of the truth because their brain is not inhabited by the spirit of god.
That's why. And it's just that's the theme of the Bible. When I talk about the 35,000 footnotes in the winterized version, I'm talking about tracing themes through the Bible and the and the appendices. If you have, there's about, I don't know, half a dozen to a dozen major themes, big themes. You got those. Make sure that you understand everything in light of those, and the Bible stresses those themes. Judaism, now reduced to writing, is the Talmud and the Mishnah, and the official doctrine of Judaism in those writings is that the Bible is for women, children, and other mental deficient.
But the Talmud and the Mishnah, no, no,
[01:07:41] Unknown:
that's, that's

about 60 volumes of complex stuff. That's for us elite. We not not children, women, and other mental deficient. That's sick, but Rome does the same thing. I've often wondered how does Rome get a pass on not ordaining women and the whole evil empire comes against everybody else? All other groups, Christian groups are claiming Christianity. Rome claims it. How do they get a pass? Nobody mentions. Well, why is it they don't ordain women priests? Nobody even makes a big deal about ordaining women rabbis. Oh, there's a little, but not much. Why? Well, that indicates that they're part of the evil empire. They're not part of the of the true religion as they say they are. Islam the same way. Nobody complains about I can't believe it. The left crying about how women are mistreated, and then Islam comes to America and the women were in were were in burkas and reduced to having their heads chopped off for, not doing what their husbands say, and they do that. In Islamic countries, nobody says a word.
The left does not say a word about that. They don't say they take women out of the airports in these countries and just chop their heads off if they, for example, commit adultery. Well, is adultery wrong? Of course, it's wrong. They just go chop their heads off. What about, just talking back to your husband? Is that wrong? Well, yeah, that's not a smart thing to do. It's not good, but that doesn't mean we're supposed to take you out the airport and chop your head off. There there's no compassion in Islam, and this is that we read recently. We're teaching the current class on Christian nationalism where we went through long passages from the Scottish covenant of, what was it? Sixteen thirty eight or somewhere back there.
Sixteen thirty eight. I read long passages about it and, all well, 300,000 men signed that covenant. 300,000. And the population of Scotland at that time was less than 1,000,000 people. If 300,000 men signed, that means all men of militia age, 20 age 20 years old and upward, 21 at common law, signed that covenant. And over and over, it it it talks about the grievances of false religion, and they do not accept them. They do not accept that children that are not baptized by the priesthood of Rome. They, they don't accept that they go to hell. That was what the church of Rome was teaching. Gotta get that baby in here and get it baptized. Salvation by baptism. See salvation by something you do instead of something or all that God has done. Or they said, we don't accept that. We do not accept what Rome says that a woman that's been divorced can't remarry. We don't accept that. That's not what the Bible says. That's what Rome says. That's what the priesthood says. That's they called it that cruel doctrine. And it is cruel. Of course, both of those doctrines are cruel and a whole lot of other doctrines they mentioned.
We're here to say that we have a, we have a Pope and it's a paper Pope called the Bible to put it in blunt terms. And the Bible is the final rule of faith and practice. The final court of last result, resort in all things. Here it is. And anything less will bring hell upon a nation. What I'm worried about, worried. No, not worried. Nothing I can do about God's sovereign and I rejoice and he's going to bring all this ugliness together for my good. He says so. Not other people's good, not, not the non elect, but God's chosen. He'll bring it together for their good. That's me, and I hope that's you. Bring it together for their good. In the meantime, he still calls me to say the truth.
And when I say the truth, I know this seems silly. It's not like I have a big following. It's not like I make a pinch of money. Nobody pays me a salary to, to teach the Bible or to say what I'm saying here. But I say it because I firmly believe that the truth of God's word is more powerful as Mary, queen of Scotts acknowledged, more powerful than anything else anybody could ever do. I believe it's that powerful. I've seen it. The Bible says it over and over again. We're not we're not here to defend the word of God. We're here to unleash it. It's a lie. Just unleash it. That's all you gotta do. Let it run free. Let it run. Jesus and it will conquer everything. If we have freedom of speech, keep doing that.
Jesus Christ said, I just went over this two days ago. John chapter 17 just before he turned himself over and he did, he turned himself over to the, to the powers that be to murder him. That's why he came to pay the penalty for our law breaking our sin. But he went to the garden there on they called it a garden. It was a, olive garden, probably just an orchard. They went out in it, and they fell down on his face by himself, and he prayed. And then we call it the high priestly prayer of John 17. Well, Jesus Christ, according to the Bible, is of the order of Melchizedek, of the priestly order of Melchizedek, which is above the temporary priestly order of Levi above it.
A priestly order of Levi of the Old Testament has run its course and done its job and doesn't need to do anything else. And, the high priestly order of the man called Melchizedek. Malik means king and Sadiq means right headedness or righteousness to put it in the common term. But righteousness means right headedness means you got your nose pointed in the right direction. Well, Melchizedek, that's Jesus. The Christ is head of that priesthood and the high priest of that priesthood. And he prays a priest intercedes for men to God.
A priest represents interceding for men toward God. A prophet intercedes for God to men. It's just the opposite direction. A prophet speaks for God to men. And when anybody speaks the truth, when anybody repeats the Bible or teaches the Bible, if they're saying what's true, they're functioning in the office of prophet. The Bible says that we do have the prophets that pin the Bible. That's, of a higher dignity. No question. But prophecy is not telling you like rabbi Khan. I know people that read him every day or some other pagan soothsayer telling you what the future is.
No, that's not prophecy. A prophecy, the word itself, not be in the Hebrew tongue, but prophetase in the new Testament. It means to pro, meaning pro means before in front of, and faces is the word like confess. Same Latin root means to speak Latin root in the Greek as well to speak. It It means fundamentally to speak before other people. And it's implied, of course, with the word that you're speaking truth. You're saying what God said. Thy word, Jesus Christ praying, says thy word, which are proven claims. That's what that word means. Lagos, proven claims. It's, from the courts of Rome. It means a claim that's proven.
Thy proven claim is truth. Thy word is truth. That's the King James. Thy word is truth. Is that true? Yes. That's true. But to put more color in it, thy proven claims, that's the word of god, makes its proven claims, is proven fact. Alethea, the Greek word translated truth. Is it truth? Yes. But what is truth? Pilate said to Jesus Christ cynically. He bathed, as judges do today in our courts, they bathe everything in cynic acid. And he said, he said, what is truth? Well, alethea is proven fact. Logos is a proven claim. Alethea is a proven fact as evidence to back it up.
Related concepts, by the way. And when Jesus Christ said thy word, thy proven claim is truth proven fact. Well, that's makes good sense. Well, the word of God are claims that are proven fact, they're proven. The evidence for them is overwhelming. Even, the standards of our common law, which are good standards, they're biblical. It's overwhelming that it's true and reliable evidence. That's what we need to tell people, and that's what is that's the weapons the strongest weapon of our warfare is truth, and it's found most purely in the Bible. Now while ago while ago, Paul said we were gonna open it up for questions, and I apologize.
I forgot that, and that's a good idea. Maybe, Roger,
[01:16:44] Unknown:
if you're in agreement, we should do that. Yes. I always like to interact with the folks here, and Larry has been patiently standing in line. He's gonna revert back to part of what we said in the first part of the show. Ain't that right, Larry? You still there?
[01:17:00] Unknown:
Yeah. I'm here. I I had to wipe the fluff off my mouth. I told you. Yeah. Uh-huh. So this is to this question's to Brent. A while ago, you were talking about the Japanese flag depicting the symbol of the rising sun. Do you think that down through the centuries, the Japanese convoluted the facts of the gospel being told through the constellations? And I have a comment about that. It's my understanding that according to Genesis 15, the Lord told Abraham the gospel and that it can be seen in the heavens. It starts with Virgo the virgin and ends with Leo the lion of the tribe of Judah. So I'd just like your thoughts on that subject.
[01:17:44] Unknown:
Well, first, to expand on it without me saying it, I would recommend a book and it's called, oh, I remember the author, but the the you can find it really easy if you have the author. The author is e as in echo, w as in whiskey. Those are two letters, abbreviations, his first name and his middle name, e w Bullinger, b u l l I n g e r, I believe. Oh, it's called the witness, witness of the stars. That's the name of the book. That guy did a lot of work. And what his point is again, and this is my point to the laws of nature and the laws of nature's God are the only two volumes of revelation that God has given to man. And those are the two volumes, the laws of nature, the way God revealing himself in creation and the heavenly bodies are integral to that.
Psalm chapter 19. That's the theme of those few verses. There is the laws of nature and what we can learn from the heavenly bodies. We know in the Bible, go to the book of Job Job. Job, by the way, without question is the oldest book of the Bible written. It was written before Genesis. Genesis talks about the creation. Yes. But Genesis was written after Job. Job is the most ancient book we have in the Bible, and that's from internal evidence of the book. But in the book of Job, we see the constellations, the constellations mentioned in illustration.
The constellations have been around forever. Remember the Magi and there weren't three wise men. That'd be silly to say that, but the powers that be have promoted that idea, within the tivity scene, but probably it doesn't say there's three anywhere in the Bible, but probably a whole lot more, but they had been studying. What do you remember the stars? And they discovered that by studying the stars, if you study nature friends, it'll lead you to the word of God. If you study in nature, it will lead you to the word of God and the word of God supports that idea. You know, it's interesting to back up.
I like to quote this fellow that was, at the battle of Concord and that when the, our war started with Britain for separation from Britain, his name was, Preston, captain Preston and a lawyer in the 1840s. A lawyer got to try and understand how it was that a ragtag bunch of farmers and, other kind of men, mostly farmers probably because that's what people did back then mostly could have defeated the most powerful, well fed, well trained, well equipped, equipped army in the world, the British regulars. How'd that happen? So he went looking for veterans of the war, early wars of the, of that conflict, that war with Britain.
And he found this old fellow named captain Preston, and he was 91 years old. I remember right. You do the math, see if that works out right. And he said to him, he wanted to know what would have motivated him to do this, to fight the British. And he said, were you, were you oppressed by intolerable oppressions? And the old militiamen said, oppressions. He said, I didn't feel any. And he he's trying to figure out what motivated him. See, he said, what? He said, weren't you oppressed by the stamp act? He said, I never saw one of those stamps. And I certainly never paid a penny for one. We said, well, what about the T tax?
He said, T tax. He said, I'll never drank a drop of the stuff. The boys threw it all overboard, referring to the Boston tea party. I'll say that, well, this guy wasn't motivated by that, but maybe he's an intellectual. So he said, well, I suppose you'd been reading Harrington or Sydney Algernon Sydney, or John Locke about the eternal principles of Liberty. He said, I never heard of them. Now watch this. He said, I never heard of those intellectuals, John Locke, Algernon Sydney, and Harrington. I never heard of them. All we ever read, he said, what's this was the Bible, the almanac, the, the Bible, Watts, Psalms, and hymns and the almanac.
That's all we ever read. Now that's significant. Why? Because the Bible is the laws of nature's God. That's what that phrase means in our declaration. And the Almanac is all about what the laws of nature, the seasons, the weather, when to plant according to the signs of the heavenly bodies. And by the way, I'm fully convinced that's real. I grew up in that world and we planted according to the signs when I was growing up. We even put in our fence post and tempt them in. We built fence according to the signs. And my grandmother who never cut her hair her whole life trimmed but she did trim off the split ends. She only split off this trimmed off the split ends of her hair when the moon was going out, when the moon was waning.
And we recognize that the water and the horse horse tank would go clear when the moon was waning. We never planted our root crops when the moon was waxing. If you did, you wouldn't get anything, but taters the size of peanuts, and although they would be beautiful plants, they'd all go to top. All of that is true. We witched our water wells. Why? Well, they worked that way. Don't ask me why. There are a lot of theories why it's not witchcraft. It's the laws of nature. We witched them and dug them and we had water. What am I what am I saying? Hold hold it. Hold on. Hold on. Yeah. And then Larry has to come in when I get done and get to you. What I'm saying is So where's that clicking coming from?
[01:24:08] Unknown:
Yeah. That's a fire.
[01:24:11] Unknown:
Oh, well, it doesn't yeah. I feel it all the way down here. Go ahead, Brent. What what I'm saying is,
[01:24:16] Unknown:
yes. Now how this you cited the, Abraham going out and look at the stars. I don't take that at all as the gospel being told to Abraham in the sense, I think we're, we'd think of it today. All he said to Abraham there in the fifteenth chapter was, he was establishing his trust settlement with his people. And we are the sons of Abraham because we have embraced what Abraham trusted. And he brought him out after he gave him, God told him what he was going to do. And he brought him out and he said, you look up at the stars of the heavens. He said, that's how many you can't even count the stars of the heavens. That's how many, how many, will be your descendants in this trust that I have established with you. And if you're interested in that, I can talk more about that trust. I'm teaching it now in our trust class, and that's where the trust of God was established in a meaningful way that covered the three elements, indispensable elements of the common law trust.
But he did tell him to look at the stars, but the gospel wasn't in that. That was, an illustration that God made of his descendants. And it's an important thing. But, notice also that it says there, Genesis chapter 15, verse six, and that same narrative, God told him what he would do. He would give him a land. And then it says, and he caused it's in the cause of Tim in the Hebrew text, he caused Abraham to believe God. He caused Abraham to believe God, God, and it was logged down for Abraham as right headedness righteousness. There is the fundamental gospel friends. The first mention of it in clear terms, salvation is by you trusting what God has said.
God said something to Abraham. He trusted it to be true, but in significantly, it's clear that it's in the cause it stem of the Hebrew verb, by the way, that is the first appearance by the way, that is, that is the first appearance of the word. Amen. In the Bible, amen is a Hebrew word. Amen. It's pronounced amen, but there the first appearance of it, it's in the verb form, Abraham, amen, God, what did Abraham do? God said, here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to give you a land for you and your descendants. And what did Abraham do? He said, amen.
And God counted it to him for righteousness. He logged it down on the positive side of the ledger. That's how you get snatched from hell to my friends. You just say him amen to God's word. Do you feel like saying amen? Say it. That means God has enabled you to do that and has impelled you to do it. Don't resist it. Do it. Say amen to the Bible. Amen. To what God says. And that's how it starts. And after that, you have the capacity and the desire to know what it is that God wants you to do. But many people have told you that that doesn't matter. The, all of Christa, all of dispensational Christianity, all of, what we call Judeo Christian support to the nation, Israel Christianity, which is most Christianity has been in the past has said the law of God doesn't matter.
That my friends is the doctrine of Balaam, which we're talking about in the 10 commandments. We're gonna get to that tomorrow and how it is that dispensationalism is the doctrine of Balaam. It is apostasy. Get away from it. Yeah. Know the will of God. He's told us what he wants. Let's just relax as Christian folk and see if we can do some of it. That's where the enjoyment comes in. Larry, are you if you're there, don't forget that book, Larry, if you maybe you've already got it. That book Larry has a beautiful chart that folds out like a Playboy fold out. I know you don't know what that is, so maybe I should use another illustration. But that old book written a hundred years ago called Witness of the Stars, you open it up, and it has a fold out chart of the heavens.
With all of the constellations and all of the stars of note, he goes into great detail talking about the the intensity of the of the stars, what and what it means and how the gospel is communicated through the stars. Is it? Yes. It is. That's true. But that's the that's the communication of condemnation. All of nature, there's two kinds of revelation, the laws of nature and the laws of nature is God, the laws of nature, God revealing himself in creation is a revelation of condemnation. It only condemns us only condemns us. It tells us, oh, there's a God he's awesome. He's dreadful. He's mighty. He's wonderful. He's unpredictable. He's dangerous.
Creation is dangerous friends. It tells us that, but it is the word of God, the proven claims that lead us directly and unambiguously The laws of nature lead us to the word of God written, and that's what leads us to an understanding of Jesus, the Christ, the savior, the the high priest of the order of Melchizedek, and on and on the the information goes more than we can learn in a lifetime. Let's get started. And it all comes back to God wants a people who is willing and does do what he tells them to do, follows his law, his will. That's the purpose of salvation. The purpose of salvation is not to snatch you from hell. That's not the chief purpose, but he snatches you from, snatches you from hell. Why? So he will have a people who are committed to his glory by obeying him. That's the proper view of salvation.
The biblical view, I should say, not my opinion. It's just what it says point blank. It's a matter of reading it and saying, yeah. I yeah. Amen to that. Amen. Abraham. Amen. God. Larry, back to you.
[01:30:32] Unknown:
No. Well, yeah, Larry, you gotta follow-up on that?
[01:30:37] Unknown:
Not really. That that answers my question. I'll look into that book. One thing I wanna mention is, a couple of years ago, my brother-in-law and I discovered some website. And what this website did was it it enabled it created an the creator of the website created an algorithm, and they were able because the con the constellations and the stars, they're very constant as they as they move around in the heavens. And so they they created this algorithm that was able to go back in time following all the stars, like the way they move, and they were able to pinpoint the very day that the the the Magi, I guess, is what you call them, they when they were confronted by the angel, and they were told, to follow the star. And what it was is there's only one time in history where certain stars were lined up, in a certain way, and this is all depicted on this one website. I'm gonna try to dig it up, and maybe I can bring it to your attention next time we talk about these things. But it was very interesting to see that in that on that website.
[01:31:55] Unknown:
Yeah. I've watched this fellow's video. I know what you're talking about, and that was a few years back. Yeah. It's possible because the the heavenly bodies, we can predict exactly where where they will be a million years from now, a thousand years, because they never deviate. That's why we are we we are, instructed to pray, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on land as it is up in the sky. Nothing in the sky is out of sync with God. Nothing. It's perfect. Predictable. Everything is perfect. Some of that is communicated to the land through the signs, like the almanac teaches and through the tides, for instance. That's from the heavens, controlling what goes down here on land, and we are to pray that that is what happens, that god's perfect will is consistent, never changing will is communicated from the skies to the land.
But that book, yeah, it's a good book. And, you know, the the the this is a tradition, but it makes sense as the Magi, and that's the from where we get our word magic, they were pagans, my friends, pagan priests. That's why I say I don't I don't and I shouldn't, and you shouldn't either always dismiss what a man says or does because he's a he's a demon worshiper. God will speak through anybody he wants to speak through. But remember, the court of last resort is the written word of God, Period. Period. End of paragraph, end of sentence, end of everything. That's it. Don't say, well, he's the final word, but there have been times if God had could speak through the mouth of a a Ginny ass, he could speak through me.
The the tradition is, and this makes sense that the Magi moved from the East. Of course, like a sailor on the ocean, the stars would move a portion would appear not to move. They don't move. The stars would have a different position in the sky as you move across the face of the oceans. Well, they came from a long ways to the east, and then they came west. And as they move, this would change position, and the star they were following would move further and further up in the sky. And the tradition is when they got the they followed it and they got to Bethlehem, they had to wander around a little bit to see where it was, but they knew that when it was straight up, it's the tradition, not the Bible.
They knew it was straight up. They knew where they were in the right place, and they went to Bethlehem at night. They got there after dark, and they went to the Well Of David, which is the town well. And they were gonna draw some water up to get a drink, and they drew water up. But when they looked over in the well, they saw the reflection of the star and they knew it was straight overhead. And because they knew it was straight overhead, that was the proper location of the birth of the of God himself, the Messiah. Well, thank you, Larry. And if you find that, you can either post it, here for other people that if I find it, maybe I will, too. But,
[01:34:46] Unknown:
no. The the laws of nature are important, and we don't wanna ignore them. Roger, there's somebody else that had Who is Joe sitting in front of a crackling fire with, I assume, a cup of coffee? Is that right, Joe?

Thank you.
[01:36:02] Unknown:
I love that. You can credit that. Make it fancy. F Douglas Winters.
[01:36:14] Unknown:
Is that your that was your dad's own poem?
[01:36:17] Unknown:
That well, yeah. I think what dad written a lot of poems. I matter of fact, he's he's like his mother. His you know, it was fashionable back, a hundred and twenty five years ago when my grandmother was born. And, girls, young girls would, trade poems. They're really big into that. My great grandma, Mackenzie, she I've got her book of poems that she used to trade with her friends when she was in eighth grade. And and they they thought that was a a big thing, and it was. But dad, wrote this poem, and I'm gonna repeat it to, to oh, here's one. Now this one I'm I'm not looking up. Let's see if I can he said that two British sailors taught taught him this poem when he was 17 years old in the South Pacific during the war.
Two British sailors that had signed up in the American Navy to get citizenship. That's the way you used to. I don't know if you still can, but that's the way people used to get citizenship. They'd do a stint. You know, there was a few medal of honor winners from Pearl Harbor that were immigrants from places like Poland. I I remember one particular fellow that died in the bottom of a ship because he wouldn't come out. The ship was sinking. It would the the it was filling with water. But he said, he sent the noise up or sent the word up on his phone. It was still working his sound powered phone. As long as I hear the the the, gun above firing, I'm not leaving my post.
And, he was in the bottom. He was running the generators, the machinery that allowed the gun to move. And he died. He drowned down there because he wouldn't leave his post. He was a Polish immigrant. I don't remember his name. No. People like that are forgotten, and they shouldn't. They are. Incredible things that young men do out of conviction. And he, a Polish man that wanted to be an American, and he was earning his citizenship. Well, anyway, these two British sailors, taught that this poem. Let's see if I can quote it. And it has to do with Peter the apostle and and sailors and and the sea and walking on the water. You remember the story? Peter walked on the wall. Jesus Christ was walking on the water, but Peter, Jesus Christ said, come hither. And then Peter believed and he got out, but then his trust began to waver and he began to sink down and sink down into the turbid waters of the city of Galilee, and Jesus Christ reached down and pulled him out.
Okay. Let me try this one. The sea in time brings everything down. It retains what it keeps and returns what is found. There is no deceit can be laid at his feet. There is no power it's been known to obey. Talking about the sea. There is no power it's been known to obey except the power that saved Peter when he turned away. Except the power that saved Peter when he turned away. And Dad likes that that that, record of Peter the Apostle when he began to doubt and he began to sink. And that's applicable to us now, and that's why that narrative is there. And also, he likes the story, especially of the prodigal, the prodigal son.
You know why the prodigal son, he got he ended up in a pig pen, squandered his father's wealth, ended up in a pig pen, you know, eating pig feed. This is a a Hebrew boy eating pig feed with the pigs. Got a job feeding pigs, ran out of money and food, and he got down in the hog lot and started eating with the pigs. And all of a sudden, a light went on his head. He said, I'm not a pig. I'm my wealthy father's son. And he got up out of the pig pen, went home. And people say, well, why did he get up out of the pig pen? Well, the reason he got up out of the pig pen went home because he wasn't a pig. But he finally he dawned on him he wasn't a pig, and that's the way a lot of Christian folk are.
They don't know the law of God. They don't have any enjoyment. They're eating with the pigs. But at some point, if you're truly the elect of God, you'll get out of the pig pen. You will. It's not a matter of you might know you will. Oh, God will get you out. He will lighten your mind. The light will go on again. You'll be like a king. Well, who was that? What was that King's name? That Babylonian King that went insane. And he was out in the, in the open field eating grass like an ox and his fingernail grew long, like a claws of a bird. He slept out in the rain for seven years. He lived like an animal.
And then the Bible says, all of a sudden the light went on. And he said, wait a minute. I'm not an animal. And he realized and confessed that the maker of heaven and earth is king of kings and lord of lords. And he wasn't an Israelite, by the way. The gospel is for the non Israelites. The reason the Israelites were given the task of producing the Messiah of God and the sacrificing him, albeit for the wrong reasons, they did it because they are the nation of priests that were to sacrifice. You see, God gets what he wants out of everybody, and they did that for our benefit.
They are the nation of priests that offered up the supreme sacrifice, the in infinite sacrifice for the sins of God's people, and that's for us. We are the ultimate the what do they call it? The the the ultimate. Yeah. Not the the Israel is penultimate. This is the way the Latin logicians would say it. Israel is the penultimate end of salvation. And us, the rest of the world, the races of men, and there are more than one race within the one race of Adam, the races of men are the ultimate object of God's salvation. Well, let's see if if,

What time what, what moon cycle did y'all plant? Or I I it got away from me. I yield. I didn't understand the question, Roger. Waning waning, I believe, is the answer. Oh, You you talking about cutting your hair or setting fence posts? Planting. Planting. Oh, plant planting. Well, root crops. Root we always planted root crops when the moon is waning. Because if you plant fruit crops when the moon is waxing, in other words, getting fatter, bigger, somehow it will all be drawn to top, and there won't be anything in the root crop. I planted taters when I got home, trying to raise a family and my children little, and we moved the hogs off the hog plot. They've probably been there for fifty years.
And I didn't realize that we I never tried it. Plant and garden where you have a hog lot. It won't work. The hog manure is too rich. It's like it's high octane. And, after fifty years of that being on those hills and hollers on the sand hills, I wasn't gonna do any good. But at any rate, I planted potatoes. And my grandma came over and, my father's mother. And, she had her bonnet on. You know, women used to wear those bonnets. The older gals at home wore those bonnets that came out from all sides like blinders. You know? Yep. And, grandma always made her own bonnets. And she wouldn't wear a bonnet unless she thought it pretty. You know, that's the way girls are. And us boys ought to be happy about that, by the way.
But she she made her own bonnets, and she'd starch them, and they'd stick out a certain way. And she came over at the house, and I said, grandma, I gotta show you my garden because I she's a gardener. You know, she like to milk cows and and plant garden. Make garden, as they say at home. They don't say plant garden at home. They say make garden. She made garden, and she loved milk cows. She was the grandma that had a on her father's side, he was of Dutch descent. And Dutch people love milk cows, and my grandma was no exception, but she wouldn't drink milk.
And she never liked milk. Mhmm. She loved butter. She'd eat butter like people eat, candy. And she lived up to be a hundred and two, by the way. Can't argue with it. Can't argue with eating butter. Eat butter. Show me a person who won't eat butter because they think it'll make them fat, and I'll show you a fat person. Eat butter, friends. It will help you not be fat. That's I think there's plenty of evidence about that, but real butter don't and my grandma would not allow she'd say, I ain't gonna let no oleo no oleo in this house. Yep. You know, we used to call margarine oleo.
Right. I said go.
[01:46:10] Unknown:
Crisco.
[01:46:12] Unknown:
Well, Oli Oli was that stuff they manufactured margarine.
[01:46:16] Unknown:
Yes.
[01:46:16] Unknown:
Margarine. And, I said, well, where'd you learn that grandma? She was always reading stuff. You know, she not like she went to some university, but she liked to read and she did a good job and kept a daily diary of everything that happened around. And she said, well, my dad wouldn't let polio in the house. Now her father was born in 1871. He's married before the turn of the century. Grandma was born about that time, and I said, grandma, they didn't have margarine back then. I mean, I remember the TV commercials about margarine. It was a new thing, you know, in the sixties or something. Oh, she oh, no. We had margarine, but we called it Olio. And I didn't believe her, and I did a little research and found out it was true. And her father would not let that stuff in the house because he had learned somehow. I think the Germans invented it, and it actually or two theories, and they're probably both true. A German engineer invented margarine as a lubricant in submarines that would not be flat would not be flammable. Right. They needed something that wouldn't burn on ships. You don't want lubricants that will burn.
I can tell you that for sure. If you have a lubricant that will burn, well, that's just more dangerous. So Sure. That's what margarine is. Of course, people have other theories about it, but he wouldn't let it in the house. And she wouldn't either. And, no oleo. Oleo, they used to buy it and made the research and then they'd mix it. You didn't just buy it like margin bought today. It's the same thing, only you'd have to mix it with two ingredients back in in in the late eighteen hundreds, they came out with this stuff. Well, yeah. They had submarines in the late eighteen hundreds, by the way. Yeah. That was, an upcoming thing in warfare.
No question about that. But, what was I talking about? What were we talking about? Larry, you're back to the fire. What's that? Well, I was back to the fire.
[01:48:06] Unknown:
While it was off, and I can't stay very long. But for those of you who doubt what Brent's saying, if you ever set a line of fence posts and you take a month to do it, you will see that there are some holes that have you have more than enough dirt to fill the hole back in and some fence post or post holes you don't have enough dirt. And when you and when you wean calves, if you wean them in the right sign, they won't ball as much. In fact, some of them won't have ball at all. That's the reason someone wean their babies by the sign.
And dehorning and castrating, if you do the right sign, you'll have little, if any, bleeding. So there is much to what he says. All I was trying to do is confirm what you were saying, Brent. Thank you, Joe. Hey, Joe. Yeah. Thanks. Yeah. Go ahead.
[01:49:06] Unknown:
Joe? What? Is it waning? When you castrate and dehorn, is it waning that it's the same time? You go to your old farmer's almanac. Got it. Okay. Thank you. And that's why that's why old captain Preston way back there in the eighteen forties said, we read nothing but the Bible. That's the laws of nature's God. And the Almanac. That's the laws of nature. Yeah. And, planting and and breeding your livestock and appreciate that, Joe. Here, there's one, Joe. Joe, there's one thing that my granddad swore by, and I tested it, and I found out it wasn't true. We used to cut down trees, and then we'd let them a big tree, a big oak or something with white oak or a, red oak. We'd let it lay for three or four years so it'd get dry, and then we'd cut it up for firewood. So we're always cutting wood ahead. You had to fill the tree before you cut it up.
And, cut down a tree, and that'd be an all day job, cutting down a big tree the way we used to do it, wedges and all that. And, then I'd being lazy as I was, I'd sit down on the stump. He'd come over and say, get it up. Get it. Get off the stump. I was like, why? I'm tired. He said, well, if you sit on the stump after you cut a tree down, you'll catch cold. I well, I didn't believe him. So I tried it, and I I couldn't tell, though, really. I say I didn't know. I just well, I should say this. I couldn't gather the data because every year I get a cold no matter what. I don't do that anymore because I'm not around people anymore. I stay away from people. And if you stay away from people, you'll never get a cold. That's been my experience for what it's worth. Here's another one, Joe, and I appreciate the ones that you mentioned.
But, my granddad and my dad take me out, and they'd say, hey. Look here. Here's a ring around the moon. You know, it'd be a ring of light around the moon. Seeing that. Yeah. And he said, well, now count how many stars you can see with your naked eye in there. Don't use binoculars or anything, but just how many stars you can see within that ring. And you will have snow, rain, sleet, or hail within that many days. I found that one to be true too. You see these old timers, they just all that like, they were like the Magi. They didn't try to explain it. They just said they observed it. These, these people, these Babylonians, boy, they knew their stars and they'd been observing them for centuries and keeping records.
They knew where everything would be. They did find what they called the wandering stars, and they had a hard time with those because they appeared to just wander. And that was the planets, of course, the planets. But they finally kept records long enough of that, then they discerned that that was a very distinct pattern also. And you could predict where they would be once you had that pattern down. The stars are simpler. They just go around in a perfect circle around the center point, which is near the North Star. The North Star isn't exactly center. It makes a little tiny circle as everything goes around, but that gives us a point that we can we can predict from. Well, again, yeah, laws of nature and the laws of nature's god and the almanac, we used to my brother and I, we would with bated breath, we would wait and, till the new almanac came out and went down down to feed mill.
And we go down to feed mill, they'd have it there, and we get it and read all of the they had not only the signs of the seasons, but also had articles in there about all sorts of interesting things. And you can still get that almanac in the arm stores. Yeah. Yep.
[01:52:39] Unknown:
Paul was trying to get something in.
[01:52:42] Unknown:
Yeah. Once a year. I just got a quick question. Been quite a while since you've caught a cold, Brent?
[01:52:49] Unknown:
Oh, yeah. Quite a while. I've ever since I divested myself from social life, I used to be quite a social person, a man of the public, running for public office and all those kinds of things. And every year in the winter, I'd get a cold. And now now that I don't, buddy with people and I'm a stay away from crowds, I don't get one anymore. By the way, if you keep your children away from public school, public well, government school Yeah. Or any school, your children won't be as sick either. I've seen that with my grandchildren big time. Yep.
[01:53:21] Unknown:
Okay. It's been a while since you've had a cold, but how long has it been since you cut down a tree?
[01:53:29] Unknown:
Well, I my old shoulders won't take it the way they used to. Yeah. I yeah. And I so I don't even I tried digging fence posts ten years ago with a fella, and I said, well, that's the last time I'm gonna do that. I could tell one of my shoulders are gonna blow out, so I just quit. Yeah. You know, taking that at the fence post, hole digger up and down. But, I do know how to use one. I've done it more times than I can count thousands of time probably. We seem like we were always tearing down fence that needed to be torn down and building a fence that needed to be built. It's a skill that's been forgotten. We used barbed wire, of course. We didn't call it barbed wire. We call it barbed wire. I didn't know the difference till I got older. I thought it was barbed wire. You know, barbed wire changed them changed America.
It, made a lot of things different. But, anyway, no, fence building is important. And, Joe here, Joe. Now just to give you Joe. Joe, I what I know about Joe. Joe lives out in the middle of nowhere. I I won't say where. He may not want me to say if he wants to pipe in and say he can. And, he farms, and he raised livestock. And I he's old enough. He's watched this all his life. He probably heard his parents and his grandparents say the same thing. And pretty soon, it's just the unwritten laws of nature, the unwritten laws of nature. That's why we say Blackstone says lex non scripta. Those Magi did not ask why it worked out the way it did. They just observed the patterns and said, wait a minute. We're seeing a pattern here. And that's what you see in the laws of nature. You see patterns over long periods of times and you come to conclusions inductively.
Wait a minute. The sun comes up every morning. It's been going on for seventy years. I'll bet you it'll come up in the morning tomorrow. See, that's the way you do. That's called the laws of nature. We can we plant and stake our lives on planting and harvesting, not just farmers. Right. Everybody who eats have staked their lives, but the seasons will not change. And the Bible promises the seasons will not change until God destroys this whole world. Yeah. And the rainbow is the sign of that. And as one person observed here not long ago in the chat, it says, isn't it funny that, the evil empire takes what God has set for a sign to us to teach us about the laws of nature, that he would never destroy the world by water again and make it a symbol of of sex perversion.
[01:55:52] Unknown:
Yeah. And it's opposite. Do you know that?
[01:55:55] Unknown:
It's yeah. The opposite. What was that? Go ahead. The colors are the opposite,
[01:56:00] Unknown:
direction. Never pay that. Well, they flip everything in their world is an opposite. It's all dialectics.
[01:56:07] Unknown:
Well, I'm glad I'm glad you brought that up because I wanna say this too because I've just found out that there are people out there actually listening to what I say and writing stuff down. I'm gonna give you something I learned when I was a boy, the laws of nature that, is always true, and it's important. And this is one of the most important signs that God ever gave us. It's easy to see, and it's the colors of the rainbow. And they're they are in the following order. Red or Roy g bib. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. Always in that order. I learned that as a boy in school, by remembering Roy, r o y g, that's his middle initial, bib. Blue, indigo, and violet. Roy g bib. I hope somebody wrote that down. Children need to be talking to me. Linda. Get that, Linda.
Yeah. Hey. This I I know we're joking, but to me, this is really God talking talking to us. What he reveals to us makes it. And if we don't know that, we die. We live by it. And it is our to sustain in touch with those laws that keeps us from spinning out of control into madness. Land. God demands that we be in touch with his land. And as we become more citified, we've lost what will make us a powerful nation nation being in touch with reality, as we say, in our common law tradition, being down to the ground. Are we down to the ground? Are we grounded?
And the answer is is no. We're losing it quick, and the evil empire is making it happen by the Judaization. Judaization is the certification, the civilization Yeah. In Latin of people. Yeah. Judaism, Islam, and also Romanism, the three biggies, and the Greek Orthodoxism. All of those are the Judaization, Babylonianism, the Babylonization of God's people. And they push very hard. There's a resurgence of Greek orthodoxy. It is the law of the city, friends. It is acidification. It's baloney. It's drawn us away from the laws of nature and the laws of nature's God.
[01:58:17] Unknown:
Roger, go ahead. Hey. Did you hear Mike Bloomberg's comment on farmers? He said, I don't know what what what makes farming such a big deal. All you do is put a seed in the ground.
[01:58:28] Unknown:
Well, you know, the low end that's the lowest the lowest existence to a man according to the Talmud. The lowest you can go as a man
[01:58:37] Unknown:
is to be a farmer. Yeah. Now A bring into the Talmud. That brings up something. When they were taken into Babylonian captivity, I I have read or heard that they, first of all, only kinda took the elite class and that when they got them to Babylon, they put them up as farmers outside of the city as a buffer against any enemies. Have you ever heard that?
[01:59:00] Unknown:
Oh, sure. Well, the Romans, you know, you can read the writings of the Romans, and they say the best the best, leaguineers we can find are boys that live out in the middle of nowhere. And that's true. And the the, barons of England said the same thing. There's a famous poem, speaking of poems, written about that, and it's called the Saxon. Kipling writing about Oh, okay. The Saxon is the best man of war you can find. And the reason they said that was and I don't know why this is true. I guess I need to think about it some some more. I think there's when you're in touch with the land, when you're down to the ground, your whole view of reality is different. Yes. And I am I'm a year ago. I'm a I I I talk as a man who has spent years living in the city, and I couldn't stand it.
And I know it affected me in a in a negative way. And when I came home, finally, after military service and school and all that, my father, he couldn't stand to be around me, and I didn't understand what the problem was. And it got real ugly there for a while. I mean, real ugly. I was going through the throes of of emotional and difficulty
[02:00:18] Unknown:
trying to get acclimated to being away from all that madness. It will destroy you. Yep. I see that now. Yeah. As it's done to many. Thank you, Brent. As always, another great show in the can, and we love you and appreciate you, buddy. As always, I hope everybody in the audience, grabs something out of the myriad of things that you put in front of us today. Mental feast of concepts and ideas. Thank you so much.

K. Well, Brent, you get I don't know if you got any filings to do or whatever, but, I guess my my stomach's growling already. And so I'll sashay off into the, to the regs, the regular folks.

[00:03:33] Unknown:
Morning, Paul. On the eleventh here, Friday again. That's and, I just see it looks like Brent did Brent show up or not? No. I see Francine up there. Morning, Francine, Brent's producer. Morning, Raj. This is a show. We always hear on Sundays. Francine plays a song, and she dips into her repertoire of all these wonderful spiritual oriented songs and plays one. Don't you?
[00:04:00] Unknown:
Yep. Sometimes they're not spiritual, but we do it anyway. But mostly. Mostly.
[00:04:05] Unknown:
Well, they had a I kept trying to hear a couple of years ago. I would kept sending Francine as Hank Williams, I Saw the Light, you know, which is a great song. And, they've got copyright concerns over there and whatnot. Somebody says that Brent shooting a message at me. Hard for me to see. Anyway, yeah. Good morning, Brent. Anyway, that they they didn't play it because there's copyright potential concerns, which I certainly understand. And then a couple of weeks ago, you brought on this Japanese band that did John Boya. There was just fantast I didn't you know, with my eyesight, I couldn't really see there were, the Chinese, but, boy, when y'all start talking about it, and they did a a bang up job on Jambalaya. So
[00:04:54] Unknown:
They did. Yeah. Sure did. Enjoyed that. Thank you, Francine.
[00:04:59] Unknown:
Yeah. And, of course, we'll have Brent. He just emailed me. So I mean, I'm me, so he'll show up in a minute. Friday. Gosh. What an interesting week. We've had a good week here on the program. One of the real ingredients that seems to help us, have good programs is when we have new students. And so we've had some of those lately, and it's always great to go back and go over all the basics of the stuff that we do. And, the other regular folks still hang around, you know, which means they've heard that probably a number of times before. But, but it's still new to you.
And the reason I think I've kinda considered this over the years, Francine. The the reason I think is because you've grown. You know, when there there's a lot of complex stuff here. Most of it is something most people are not familiar with. And so when you get confronted with it, you you sometimes it leaves you spinning, sometimes not. But the next time you might hear the information, you've grown in your understanding. So you may hear the same thing you heard before or maybe even more than once. But you see it in a new light. I guess that's the way with our spirituality too when we get zapped off the saddle on the way to Jerusalem. Right, Brent? You you you see things in a different light.
So, anyway, we've got new friends and and all that kind of stuff. It's, interesting. The country is and the world is in a well, it's just in a darn really interesting position right now. There's a lot of really diabolical and some good things happening. Brent, how are you doing this morning? Looks like you hitched your horse up out there. Came on in for Sarsaparilla.
[00:06:42] Unknown:
Yeah. We're okay, Roger. Yeah. So what, what's happening now in the world?
[00:06:49] Unknown:
Are we blow blowing up any countries yet or what's Well, we're not, but we it appears that we're threatening to. I think mister Trump is gonna have a meeting with the Iranians over the weekend, I heard. We'll see how that comes out. That is a real flash point. They can't get Ukraine started. They're desperate to go into a war to cover their financial crimes, and the system is unraveling. By the way, gold went over $3,200 this morning, Brent. That's well, yeah. So, you know, the the old saying on Wall Street is gold climbs a wall of worry. So that should tell you something right there.
[00:07:26] Unknown:
You know what?
[00:07:27] Unknown:
Yeah. I agree. But go ahead. No. I was just gonna say that that they they couldn't get Ukraine started, and it's still sputtering around up there with that idiot, run the despot running the show, with the strings being pulled from behind the curtain. But now it looks like Iran's gonna take center stage, and I think Trump's having a meeting, a phone call or something with them tomorrow. And, of course, is that we have to do Israel's bidding. You know? So, the other good thing is the majority of Americans are are not in favor of Israel anymore. That's a nice statistic right there. I like it anyway.
[00:08:07] Unknown:
You know, I saw that also, and I did I just can't help when you're working. And I I do research on things, and things pop up. You know? And one of the things that popped up is, there's a a growing, disdain for Israel in American churches.
[00:08:29] Unknown:
Boy, that's nice to hear.
[00:08:32] Unknown:
Well, that's the foundation of, American churches have been the foundation of the support of Israel since the beginning and even in in in England. Mhmm. And, that was a political political push driven, as all politics are, driven by religious affections. Whatever your religious affections are, that's the government you're gonna get. And it's impossible to separate religion from government. We can deny it. We can live in the fiction that it isn't true. That's what our First Amendment is. And I'm not against the First Amendment religion clauses, but to make the point, it's what we call legal fiction. And legal fictions are often necessary in this cruel, twisted, twisted world.
But we can't ignore the reality even if we accept the fiction. We or we will hurt ourselves if we ignore the reality that politics is driven by religious affections. And all politics, all all politics culminates eventually in different places in war. It is true. The communist understood that that war, politics is war without bloodshed and war is politics with bloodshed. And religion is what drives it all. It's impossible to have war without religious convictions. If I'm going to kill another man or he's gonna try to kill me and I'm gonna put myself up for possibly getting killed, that goes to the very deepest core of a man's understanding and convictions.
And that being true, that's what religion is. Don't tell me otherwise. That's silly. People say, oh, religious wars are the worst. No. War is killing. It's slaughter. How bad can it get? Can it get any worse than that? As though religious wars are the word no. We've tried to fight those wars that are and claim they're not religious. We did it in Korea. We did it in Southeast Asia and Vietnam, and we did it for we tried we operated under the under the the fiction that it wasn't. And I remember, who is some famous, soldier in America here recently.
His name starts with a b. He was the one that was originally in charge of rescuing the hostages just before Reagan became president. And, Yeah. What was his name? I I don't know. But it's I was thinking about it's the ill fated helicopter crash in the desert over there. Right? Yeah. Well, he was, he's a conservative and claimed to be a Christian man. But he when all this started after the Twin Towers, he made the comment that, this is religious war. Well, that's redundant. War is religious. It can't be anything else regardless of our misunderstandings of it.
But he, I think, lost his career at that point, and Bush was in the presidency and didn't want anybody to say that. Long time ago, I think it's still on the Internet, I found, they're they made videos, not videos, films, during before or at the beginning and during World War two, films for American the American armed forces to watch to understand what was going on. And one of those films from the Department of Defense was a film trying to explain why the Japs bombed Pearl Harbor, and their explanation was correct. And it goes into great detail, does a very good job.
Of course, it all comes down if there's religion, there's gotta be a law giver involved, a god. And the Japs had one, and they had deified, as they did in Germany, the same thing without, again, they in Germany, they operated under a fiction, but they had the same government. Now we don't wanna forget that Japan adopted the German the German form of the Code of Justinian. Mhmm. The code of Bismarck was the law became the law of Japan. And when it when that happened, of course, they had the same understanding of government. Government, as Hitler said, the code of Bismarck government is God walking on
[00:13:01] Unknown:
earth. Government say Nitschke.
[00:13:03] Unknown:
That yeah. Nitschke. That's why he was quoting Nitschke or if he is I don't know how to say it, but I think I'm close. And, so both of them had that idea, but the Japs, of course, the Japs had the the Shintoism, and they were willing to go to war with the world. There were six the about six organized crime families in Japan that got ahold of the government, worked the people into religious fervor over Shintoism, and manufactured it, by the way, much of it as they went. But they had the code of Justinian in place, the code of Rome, from the Emperor Justinian, and like the Roman church and the Orthodox church does, and they use that, of course, as a support of tyranny because the code of Justinian is an imperial code and government is tyrannical.
The emperor is God. Whether you call him God in in Germany, they couldn't get away with calling Hitler God. So they just called him the chancellor, but they gave him all the powers. He had all the powers that the god of Japan did, which was the emperor. They worshiped him outright and said that he was, and they had the records, by the way, to prove it and still have the records to prove that the emperor is a 42 generations, a descendant, and a 42 generation descendant of the heavenly body we call the sun. And that's what, of course, why the rising sun was on their flag. That's their ultimate, the ultimate source. They were sun god worshipers, just like the Egyptians were sun god worshipers.
They called him Ra, the Egyptians. All false government worships the luminaries of fire that are fiery, that have light. All Abraham was taken out of of the Chaldees. Is the Semitic word. In Hebrew, it's or for light. Light of the Chaldeans, they worshiped light. They worshiped fire. They worshiped the sun. They worshiped the stars. Anything that looked like it had fire or the reflection of fire on it. That's why you go into even Protestant churches today, and they foolishly carry candles or light candles. That's all Babylonian sun worship, fire worship is bat halos around people's heads. You see it in the medieval in the medieval paintings or a halo around Jesus head or Mary or the pope or some saint. That's all part of the fire worship of Babylon.
It does come down as a pagan. If you're not going to worship the maker of the sun or the heavenly bodies, or fire, you're going to worship the one who the the the what is made, the creature, as Paul the apostle says in Romans one. Well, that's what the the, the Japanese did. And by the way, Nipponese means same thing, has to do with fire worship. So this is really important to them, and their emperor was a 42 generations from the sun. He was, he is, he was, these they said, God almighty from the sun. And if anybody, was above him in a second story building when he was riding his white horse down the street, then they would be executed.
If they were above him and didn't have their blinds drawn, I should say, they would be executed. They could draw their blinds just so they don't look at him from above. They took this seriously, and they said that the time had come to draw all of the world under the nine corners of you know, we have four corners in our world. They had nine. The nine corners of the pagoda of Shintoism of the god of the sun and the emperor. Well, Hitler had the same powers, because he was under the same German code. You remember the Germans and the Japs were allies during the Russo, Sieni war, the Japanese war with Russia.
And, the The Atlas Powers. Right? Arms. What? It was the Atlas Powers. Right?
[00:17:20] Unknown:
I think they called them that, but I don't yeah. Do you remember that for sure? I'm not remembering that. Yeah. The other one was the allies, and that was us and our our allies. I think the other was the Atlas powers. I believe that was Japan, Germany, and Italy.
[00:17:34] Unknown:
I I don't know. I think so. Yeah. But, now you want you've made it, so I wanna go look. But I know that Oh, sorry. That's good. That's good. That's why we talk. But the Germans were allied with the Japs during that war and defeated the Russians. It was that Oh, that powers. Per It was It it was a what?
[00:17:54] Unknown:
The Germans provided them. No. Somebody's trying to Alan's trying. What what's the they answer Alan?
[00:18:02] Unknown:
A x I s, access.
[00:18:04] Unknown:
Access. Oh, that's pretty close to Alice. Access powers. There you go. I just missed a letter or two, dadgummit. Yeah. That's right.
[00:18:13] Unknown:
Pronunciation. But, war is God's business. Our God is the God of war. And the Christianity is a feminized name, but he's also the God of love. Did you know that in the in the Veda of the Buddhist and in the the, the, the Quran and the traveler and all the writings of Islam. The word love is never there, never connected with God. God has no love in their religion. He's not a God of love. He's a God of war in Islam, and that's all. But no love. But in our in Christianity, he is the God, the God of war, and the god of love. He is all in all. These kind of differences aren't stressed very much. If you wanna get involved with a religion that has nothing to do it's nothing but slaughtering and bloodshed, well, that Islam will Islam's your religion. That's what it is.
Yeah. Yeah. There isn't they'll say, oh, oh, no. No. We love or we have we're you've heard him say, we are a religion of peace. Yeah. I've heard well, they are. If you understand what Shalom means, salaam in Arabic, Shalom in the Bible, we translate peace, and it does not mean it does it doesn't mean today in the Islamic or in the Semitic tongue. There's about 15 or 16 of them. It does not mean, absence of war. It means presence of or of order in the midst of battle. That's what it means. David says in Psalm 23, thou preparest a table before me and the faces of my enemies. That's the Hebrew text literally. The faces of my enemies. He's saying, I'm at war.
Christianity is constant war against the evil empire, and that's been ignored, and those that are responsible to feed us the words of God are feeding us rats and mice and been doing it for years, and it's no wonder we're anemic. And we are anemic. Yep. But let's understand as Paul the apostle puts it in the book of Acts chapter 20, the whole, w h o l e, council of God. He said to the elders of my leaders when he left them. He said, I did not fail or neglect to give to you, to teach to you the whole counsel of God. That means all 66 books.
These and no others, these and no more, but that's the wholeness of it. And that's what we're not getting. So war is God's business. We are to understand it and wage it according to his limitations and his rules. And if we do not, we will pay a terrible awful penalty. For example, torture is a part of warfare with all of the world, except all the religions of the world, except Christianity. Of course, there's some religions that say, well, we don't believe in war at all. Of course, God destroys those kind of cultures. The Indians in India have that kind of a culture. They won't crush a bug or a fly.
They say there isn't. But, of course, when it comes right down to it, they'll slaughter people just like anybody else, but then claiming that they won't. This is madness. Then, of course, all false religion is madness. Well, Roger, that's some of the things that are on my mind about the world. I try to get the big picture, talk about things in general terms. Go ahead. Okay. I was just gonna say you mentioned India right there. There's a very interesting,
[00:21:56] Unknown:
parallel to the Chinese Belt Road, which I'm sure you've heard about. Right? And you're trying to link everything up all around the world. Well, we've kinda short sheeted that. Trump went in and took back the Panama Canal, and evidently, the Panamanians are behind, behind The US on that. They don't like the Chinese too much either. But the other thing is they are switching from China as a manufacturing base to India, to your India you just mentioned. And then it well, Us and the Israelis and it's a coalition of folks, but they're trying to take and it looks and appears that that's what Gaza may be about is they're trying to move over to India as the manufacturing center, not China, and, then have that belt our own belt and road that comes right up through the Red Sea and up there, and they cut a canal through Gaza. And there's a Mediterranean. It goes to Europe and The US. It looks like they're building a parallel belt road to the Chinese.
[00:23:01] Unknown:
Oh, well, I noticed, I can't find a shirt to buy that's not made in Bangladesh.
[00:23:07] Unknown:
Right.
[00:23:07] Unknown:
Right. And so and isn't,
[00:23:10] Unknown:
the population of India much more than that of China? I I don't know about much more, but it is of China. And, and, yeah, it's India's always kinda fascinated me. Yeah. I I met when I first moved here to Ecuador. There was an Indian young man that was here visiting, one of his classmates from where they went to school in England. And he was here for a month, and we got to know each other pretty well. He was a this is so unusual. Here's a Indian kid, sharp as a tack, by the way. And, he's in the hotel room next to me in this little condensed little kind of thing. And, so we get to meet, and the very first question he asked me, what do you think of John f Kennedy?
[00:23:59] Unknown:
Yeah. That was the first thing this kid that didn't even 22 years old yet is asking me. Why was he why was he interested in,
[00:24:09] Unknown:
guys? He was enamored with Kennedy, and he was absolutely head over heels with Trump. That was when he was running the first time or just gotten elected. So, anyway, I I've always kind of been fascinated in their cultures. Very interesting. It's ancient, of course. And you've got a combination of of the different religions there. You've got the Pakistanis and the Indians who hate each other like the Hatfields and the McCoys or the Jews and the and the Muslims. Same type of situation there. And they got them out of there in the forties. And people may not know the background. I've done a little study on it.
The reason was, one of these Pakistanis came in one morning and and put a bullet in the head of Gandhi. And, Gandhi was for the mixed societies, if I remember correctly. But that right there caused such a commotion that they ended up doing the partition, and that's why India and Pakistan hate each other today. They both got nuclear weapons, by the way. So, they're still at each other's throats. And then you got another group in there in the northern part of India called the Sikhs that have that turban wrapped around their head the whole time and have the place called the Golden City that they have great reverence for. And a whole bunch of them and the Indians are now up in Canada. And that's a lot of the problems in Canada is these Sikhs and these Indians that traditionally hate each other. Kinda like we got the Jews and the Arabs here. Well, they got the Sikhs and the Indians right up there in Canada. So, yeah, it's very interesting, man. Interesting ancient culture, and, I just was kinda fascinated by it.
[00:25:52] Unknown:
Well, India claims to have I'm just looking. Excuse me. I'll shut that off. India claims to have, Are you gonna calliope there? Or Hey. Can you take this, take it over for a minute, Roger?
[00:26:06] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. He's gonna go take care of his calliope there. And, Brent loves to research stuff while we're on the air talking about it, so he's gonna come back and give us some profound nugget, I would imagine. While he's doing that yeah. Yes, Larry.
[00:26:23] Unknown:
Yeah. When he comes back, I have a question for him. He was talking about how the the Japanese flag has, I guess, the the rising sun on it, and I had a question about that.
[00:26:36] Unknown:
Okay. Well, he may be back now. Brent is acting. I'm guessing. I will wait for him. Well, no. No. Well, let's hold it till he gets back. I had something I wanted to insert too for the newer folks, and it was Brent that brought Brent has a wonderful talent, of of taking complex things and simplifying them down to understandable kinda either or situations. And, what he brought to my mind here that clarified so much for me, years ago. If you don't know, Brent and I have been doing these shows for twelve or thirteen years on Friday. So, anyway, one of the the ways Brent brought a perspective to us was to break down the difference in the law of the city and the law of the land. And there's only two groups of laws. There's a the the law of the city, which combines all of these Roman code of Bismarck, code of Napoleon, all, derived from the Babylonian merchant code and contract.
And then on the other side, you've got the common law, nature, nature's god. And the difference in the two is that in the law of the city, the legislation is drawn up for a, expected outcome. In other words, they write the law to achieve a a specific outcome. In the common law, we have a thing called due process, and we emphasize the process. And if the process is done correctly, then the outcome will be correct no matter what it is. And that's the difference. As complex as all this law stuff is, that's as simple as it is right there. Brent, I'm assuming you got the calliope put to bed. Right? Oh, yeah. Yeah. I made an appointment to talk to fella. But,
[00:28:15] Unknown:
I was just looking here. India is almost one and a half billion with a b as in bravo people. They're they don't lack a workforce. No. That's for sure. Yeah. And, the population, of course, they've always been always been, all these, Eastern religions that have destroyed them for centuries. Mhmm. Nothing but made them live. They they live in squalor still. Yep. I had a friend that worked at, Purdue in in the ag department and would travel, around the world with the professors that the ag professors, and they would be hired to hold seminars on agricultural methods and trying to spread spread, agricultural progressive agricultural methods to people that are starving.
And one of the places they went was India. And what I remember, that's been probably ten years ago. What I remember coming back with, videos on their on their what do you call iPad or whatever it was? Yeah. I didn't see anything, but but trash being blown around, piles of trash up against every building, and cows wandering anywhere they wanted to wander. That hasn't changed. They still live like that because of their religion. And in some places, it's monkeys. Well, monkeys ever and they're nothing filthier and more dangerous than a blasted monkey. I mean, monkeys are well, I could tell you, I've had some experience with monkeys, Roger. I don't know if I ever told you that. But, well, I was in the on the other side of the world in the Southeast Part of The Orient, and the monkeys are thick there. You know? And they get over in the filthy critters. You know? They're they're like they're like, bottom feeders, bad. And they get over in the trash receptacles, the bins, you know, those big bins, and that's where they'd eat. And if you were dumb enough to crawl over in there, you well, people want to catch monkeys. Americans get over there, and they wanna catch a monkey and have a pet.
That's very dangerous. Yep. And then you find out that people over there eat monkey meat and barbecuing it. Well, knowing what monkeys eat, I'm not about to eat any monkey meat. Although I have to say it smells as good as barbecued chicken. Just let, you know, guys
[00:30:35] Unknown:
If you ask them, they'd probably say it tastes like chicken.
[00:30:39] Unknown:
Oh, yeah. It tastes better than chicken, frankly. But, they would, they cook it on the street. I mean, it was just sell it to people, tell them it was chicken, you know, things like that. Well, Christianity, just get to the bottom line here, friends, the practicality of it. Does Christianity give you an opportunity to be snatched from hell? And the answer is yes, it does. But most Christian people, and this has been my observation, that finally it's come through too in the new testament. The new testament stresses above all the major theme is how do you enjoy your Christian life? Cause most people don't, most people just got fire and fire insurance.
They're snatched from hell. And they just they, live, frankly, miserable lives, and their countries go to hell in a handbasket like we're seeing happening in America. And the reason for that is this, because Christian folk and their Christian folk snatched from hell, elect of God. John says, to the ones he was writing to, I write these things to you that your joy may be having already been fulfilled. Jesus Christ has done everything that is possible to be done to give joy to his people. Joy, thrill. The word, the, the word is better understood as thrill, a constant thrill of life, to be alive to life. I write these things to you so that you, you, you're a Christian folk, but you're not enjoying it. Paul, the apostle said the same thing. He wrote a lot of books in the new Testament, you know, the same thing.
How do you enjoy the Christian life? How does it become a thrill when you get up in the morning, you're glad and you're ready to attack. You're ready to go to war. War is our business, and business is good as the that's the same in the American military. They're trained for it. They're young. They're crazy, and they want a chance to do it. They really do. And that's the way it's supposed to work. That's why young men go to war. But in in the Christian life, it's the same thing. Our weapons are are more powerful. You know, war with with guns and clubs and all the kind of weapons men have, that's a second option, second option. And it's the fallback position, and it doesn't work that well, frankly. No. It's just the best we can do. But the war that we're to wage as Christian men and women has permanent results that prevent the clubs and the artillery and the bullets and the shrapnel.
And it's a we we win it. If we are Christian men and women, God will move us to want to know his law. David said in the Psalms, how I love Psalm 119, the longest chapter in the Bible, 176 verses written to extol and and, well, to extol the law of God, to lift it up, to say what it is. And David says over the king David of Israel over and over and over again. Oh, thy law is perfect. It's perfected. What does perfected mean? That means you can do something else to maybe try to add to it, but it will not make it any better than it already is. Like we say of filing a deed down to courthouse. Mhmm. You can pay money for a house. You can get a contract, but you haven't perfected the deed until you file the deed at the courthouse. Now once you've filed at the courthouse, there's other things the law would allow you to do
[00:34:28] Unknown:
to cinch that deal up and make sure you've got it. But once it's filed at the courthouse, there's nothing else you can do to make it any better. It's perfected. It's final. That's it. For the audience who may not know, that's the property records at the courthouse. It's in virtually every county in the country that we talk about occasionally here filing putting our affidavits on those roles, which is what John and Glenn taught us originally because we don't know about secretary of state. Go ahead, Brent. Well, you're just making the point, and I appreciate it. Yeah. That's the perfecting.
[00:34:59] Unknown:
A sworn statement is the perfecting of the book of Hebrews in the Bible says, once a man gives a sworn statement, that ends all dispute unless unless there's a challenging sworn statement. But Mhmm. By standing by itself, the Bible is right. And in our common law tradition, that that's true. Once the sworn statement is entered, until it's overcome
[00:35:25] Unknown:
Right. Or it it's final. And that's what we're talking about this yesterday with affidavits. I was trying to explain to some of the audience how powerful affidavits are and why. And that you can really incorporate this information into your day to day life, which can really assist you. For instance, the example, you gave yesterday, you get in a car wreck, and you go home, sit down, write an affidavit, go get it notarized the next day, should that come to trial. Yeah. Well, here's my affidavit as to what happened. Where's yours, sir? Yeah. They're Who's gonna who who'd you think they're gonna accept?
[00:35:58] Unknown:
Yeah. Yours. And all that's good. And, yeah, we need to talk about the importance the importance of sworn statements. And what is a sworn statement? What value is it? Why do we do it? Number one, we make sworn statements because we are at heart liars. We make sworn statements because because we are at heart liars. If we weren't liars at heart, we wouldn't need to be making any oaths, swearing into statements. We just say them. When God when God, says things, he just says it. But just to cinch it to make it obvious to us, he says, but I have sworn. And he says in the book of Hebrews, the same book I was talking about a while ago, in the book of Hebrews, having no one greater to swear by, I swore by myself.
Cause there is no one greater to swear by if you're, if you are the maker of heaven and earth, but us mere mortals, we swear by one greater than us. That's what an oath is, is it, it is to promise to support your promise, whatever your promise is, calling in one greater than you to force you to do it and give you the consequences to visit the consequences of not doing it upon you. That's heavy duty stuff, friends. The Bible says that every sworn statement of men, every sworn promise, God will require of him, period. How dangerous can it get?
We swear as the Westminster symbol at Westminster said, we swear by that holy and dreadful name of God, the creator of all things, him and him alone. And he commands, if you're going to swear, you only swear by him and no other. There is no prohibition in the Bible against swearing as the Quakers and other groups have always maintained. That's not true. That's clearly not true, although they say it. We are let your yes be yes and your no be no. Yes. That's true. Always do that. But there's when it comes time to swear an oath, every time you take the Lord's supper, I'd say this to you Quakers. Maybe you don't take the Lord's supper, but every time you take the Lord's supper, you're swearing an oath. Every time you get a person gets baptized, they're swearing an oath.
Not that we should swear flippantly as Jesus Christ said, do not swear generally, flippantly, holy. In other words, don't swear at everything. That's very dangerous. The Bible says if you're going to swear, you swear tightly to a specific promise and make sure that you can follow through on it and understand that you've committed yourself to follow through on it no matter what it does to you. This is dangerous stuff. You swear an oath to support and defend the constitution of The United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic. I have taken that oath six times in my life. Six times.
And when I got older, I got to thinking about it. I have the the truth of what the Bible says about the oath has come in on me. I don't take it lightly. Why? Because the Bible says that God will require it of me. So what am I gonna do? Do the best I can to support and defend the constitution of The United States against enemies, foreign and domestic. But that's not the only oath I've taken. And by the way, the oath did not give any duty to me. I already had that duty. If you live here in America on this land, you're domiciled here. This is your home. You intend to come back here no matter where you go.
Well, then you owe a duty to this land to support and defend the law of the land, which is our constitution of The United States. That's what the Bible teaches, friends. And if you want that to be fleshed out, get the book that's, a thousand pages long for an era and read it, excellence of the common law, and we'll explain it from a biblical point of view. You can get that at commonlawyer.com. No, I'm serious about it. Of course I am. This is important stuff, but it, an oath does not put a duty on anybody. It only strengthens a duty you already have. That's what an oath is. An oath is a strengthening of a duty that you already have.
And so when you get on the witness stand, say, I I swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. So help me, God. You already had a duty to tell the truth. You're not supposed to be a liar in a court of law. You ought to know that. Well, why do we have the oath? The oath is designed to awaken any sensibility you have in you of of God visiting you if you don't do what you promised to do. Does it do that? Very seldom. Very seldom does the oath ever awaken anybody's conscience as our common law says it's supposed to do. That's the reason for the oath. Very seldom does that happen, but we do it anyway.
You know, people constantly well, let me back up. There's so much to talk about here. We were talking the other day about the head of the FBI. And if I don't get his name right, I think maybe I got it now. Oh, no. No. I've lost it. Do you remember how to pronounce his name, Roger? Well, it depends on who you listen to. I've heard it cash, and I've heard it cash.
[00:41:16] Unknown:
So I'm not quite sure on the exact pronunciation, but he is a Patel. And, he is, he and both, who's the and I just saw her last night. Tulsa Gabbard, they're both Hindis.
[00:41:32] Unknown:
Yeah. And they they they took an the oath of office, put in their hand upon their and it wasn't a it wasn't a Bible. It was their holy writing. Uh-huh. And, God can use anybody.
[00:41:47] Unknown:
By the way, you know where she was born, Brent? Where? American Samoa.
[00:41:53] Unknown:
Kind of funny, ain't it? Yeah. Plays it. But the they did that, put in their hand on the holy book, the the book that they say is holy. That whole that whole idea of putting your hand on the book, that's Christian culture. That's Christian culture. They said, well, I gotta do something. I don't wanna do the Bible. I'll do it on this book. See? So they they, they conform. You see how Christian culture is powerful. I'm not saying it was right. Matter of fact, that's contrary. The Bible says that's that's spitting in God's face. Let's get real here. What does the Bible say? The Jesus Christ made it clear, sermon on the mountain, when he's unpacking the law of God, and he is the law giver, by the way, of the law of God. He's the one that gave the law to Moses on the mountain. He's the one that created all things according to the Bible.
But he said, do not swear by any created thing. Do not swear by the gold on the temple. Do not swear by the temple. Do not swear by heaven. Heaven to Betsy. I've heard people say that growing up. Heaven is the Betsy. That's a dangerous thing to say. Across my heart, hope to die, stick a needle in my eye. That's swearing by yourself. That's the height of arrogance. And by the way, again, spitting in God's face, the swearing of an oath is an act of religious worship. Again, quoting the men of Westminster, they compiled the Bible's data on the point of swearing and oath. They said, well, it's an act of worship. Why? Because you're calling in the maker of heaven and earth, and you're not allowed. You're not allowed as a member of Adam's race to swear by anybody else. This is fundamental.
Do not swear by heaven because it is the throne of God. Do not swear by anything on earth because that's his footstool. That's all it is for him, but you swear by him. And he says, it's a personal thing to me. If you don't swear by me, if you call somebody else in to, to support your promise. Remember David. David, king of Israel, got the bright idea. He was gonna take a census of and and calculate how many fighting men he had in Israel in the militia of the 12 tribes, and he did. That ticked God off because he did it for the wrong reason. Ticked him off.
He wanted to feel like he had a lot of power behind him, and God says, of course, you don't trust in military might. You trust in me. Me and me alone. Mhmm. And that's what David finally, God said, oh, I'll give you a choice. Either I'll slaughter a lot of Israelites or I'll slaughter you and and, or I'll I'll I'll bring, other people into slaughter you. That was the whole idea. And get the crux of the of David's response was this. David said, in essence, I I throw myself on the mercy of God, you. And I don't I don't wanna be in anybody else's hands. I wanna be in your hands. If I need to be punished, I want you to punish me.
I don't want my enemies to punish me. Well, it's the same thing with an oath. Why would you call in your enemies demon gods and all gods are demon gods except the true god. The demons have fashioned, and the demons get you to bow down to them, to pay a balance, to attribute worthy ship, worship to them, the, worth to attribute worth to them. Why would you do that? That's a spitting again in God's face. Like like the fellow said, it'd be better. Sure is. I'd rather be hung by my friends than a bunch of a bunch of strangers or enemies. Well, that's what David said. Listen, you're my friend. You're my redeemer.
I'll put myself in your hands and whatever you do to me, I know will be just. But to call some other demon god in to visit his vengeance on me if I don't keep my promise is not only stupid, it's dangerous. And I would say to you folk out there, be careful. Jesus Christ was clear on that point, and he did not forbid in the Sermon on the Mount as the Quakers and other groups say, the not taking an oath. I can count six times at least, if not a dozen times. It depends upon how you look at it. Paul the Apostle swears an oath writing to the Corinthians. He's so ticked off at them. They're so cruddy, the cruddy Corinthians.
A Stedman always call them a first and second Californians. They were cruddy, man. I mean, you know, they were Christian get this, Roger. Get that. They were Christian folks having been snatched from hell and they were living like animals. And that's the point I was making at the beginning. Most Christian folk do. If you don't know the law of God, you don't know that the law of God is just the will of God. If you don't know what's the what's the law, what's legislation. It's the will of the legislature. That's what it is.
It's the will, what they want. Well, what is no different with God himself. His will is his law. And if you don't know what it is at all, how in the Sam Hill could you possibly follow it? Do it. And there will be no joy in the Christian life. If you don't do it. I write these things to you, that your joy may be having already been fulfilled. That word fulfilled means fully unfolded, perfected. There's nothing more you can add to what Jesus Christ did. No. No. You can't go to mass. You can't say, Hey, ma'am, hail, marriage. You can't walk an aisle at a Baptist church and fall down, and I think that's gonna save you. You can't you can't even keep the law of God. That that won't save you.
That if that's what you think. No, you're sadly mistaken. No, God snatches people from hell without any of that. But then after he snatches them from hell, after he took the nation of Israel out of Egypt, after he brought them through the Red Sea, Yeah. Then he takes them to Sinai. And what does he do? He gives them a written expression of his will. The outcomes he wants called the 10 commandments. That's for God's people. Nobody else can can keep them or do them consistently. They have not the power. It's simply not there. They can try to do them. They can try to hold themselves to them, but the power to do them, as Baggo, the British barrister said a couple of hundred years ago, they have everything, Rome and their law. They had it all figured out in their law. The Greeks had it all figured out in their law.
The, the law of the city that could have just Indian looks good. I mean, how can you complain about what it says? It has moral standards in it. The problem is she's got the wrong God. Government does not God. And anything that says it stands in the place of God, which are the theory of the Roman code. The theory of the canon civil laws of Rome, priesthood stands in the place of God, the place of Jesus Christ, where Jesus Christ's friend, that's the very definition of antichrist. My friends, listen, I'll quote my dad here. Let's see. How did he say it? We had a family get together a year or two ago and a lot of folk were there and I say, okay, we're getting ready to leave. Dad, do you want me to pray or you want to pray?
Well, most of the time he's being as old as he is. He said, well, you go right ahead. He just tired, you know? But he, I, then I went right ahead and I prayed. And then, then he, before I got done right at the very end, he piped up and he said, hear me now, dear Christian friend, a godless life brings a godless end. So keep the faith in God. We trust Now I've got it messed up. A godless life brings a godless sin, so keep the faith. Well, I don't remember the rest of it, but it I wrote it down, Roger. It was so good. I didn't know. That's unusual. Yeah.
Yeah.
[00:50:12] Unknown:
Speaking of getting old, Oh,
[00:50:16] Unknown:
fuck. And I resemble Keep the faith.
[00:50:19] Unknown:
Oh, hell. And in the end of it was because, faith in God is wisdom's root. That's what he said. Faith in God is wisdom's root. Let me try it again. Hear me well, dear Christian friend. Now we're talking about Christians that do not have the enjoyment that God wants them to have because they don't know the law of God. They don't know the law of God. They don't do it. How can you do it if you don't know it? Hear me well, dear dear Christian friend. A godless life brings a godless end. So keep the faith and in pursuit, for trust in God is wisdom's root. There it is. Got it.
Yeah. That that's good advice. Of course. It's just what's that?
[00:51:07] Unknown:
Paul's very, very good advice. And I'm gonna stop you right there so you can talk about commonlawyer.com. And Oh. After we get past the top of the hour, we can open it up for questions or comments.
[00:51:21] Unknown:
Well, Larry's sitting there in first place waiting and frothing at the mouth. So go ahead, Brent.
[00:51:27] Unknown:
Well, I'm I'm gonna tell dad that you said that, Paul. I'm gonna text him or well, I text mom. He doesn't do texting. Mom does. She she's pretty progressive with all that technical stuff, but he'll be encouraged. So thanks, Paul. No. I thought the same thing. I think every every Christian man and woman ought to have that one memorized, and I'm trying right now. As you know, I'm a little slow on the uptake. But the more I say it, the more I'll know it, and I don't wanna forget it. It's just a a a succinct way to put the Christian life. This is Brent. Brent Allen Winters, common lawyer dot com. W w w dot common lawyer dot com, common lawyer dot com. Go to the website commonlawyer.com and take advantage of the resources we have there. The winterized version of the Bible, a common lawyer translates the Bible from the original tongues, they're about 35,000 footnotes explaining why it translate this way or translate that.
Over 200 appendices, tracing major themes through the warp and the wolf of the text of the context of the Bible. I translated it for myself. I am the target audience, and I use it to teach, but people have found it, useful to them, apparently. One gal down in Australia ordered it and then called it, the winterized version, the winterized version of the Bible. So we we say that sometimes, but it's just a translation from the original tongues. We call it the good book uncooked. I don't wanna cook the book. I want to deliver it up just the way just the way it would deliver to me and be as colorful and graphic as I can. And so I translated it for purposes of teaching. And when I look at the text of my translation, I pretty much know what the the Greek Koine Greek of the New Testament or the Hebrew or Aramaic of the Old Testament is because I translate. One of my purposes is to not use any Latin based words that makes it more earthy, and to translate every Hebrew root word and every Greek root word with the same English word throughout.
You know, the King James Bible I've found in the King I like the King James. It's was translated for beauty and elegance, not accuracy.
[00:53:41] Unknown:
And
[00:53:42] Unknown:
now that darn thing went off again. And then he wants an airplane. There are some, yeah, there are some words, some Hebrew words in the Old Testament that I counted are translated with 50 Hebrew root words, 50 different English words in the King James Bible. Yikes. A lot of them maybe with a dozen or so. A lot of them with half a dozen. And that is done so that it will flow and be beautiful. And that's good. And it is beautiful for what its purpose is, but that's not my purpose. My purpose is to add color to each words, each of the words, the complete color, the nuance of them. And sometimes I translate with hyphenated words because you can't get what the Hebrew, the Greek word says in one word. Well, that's the the winterized version of the Bible, a translation from the original tongues. Then also, the book mentioned a while ago, excellence of the common law, 957 pages, tracing the the the and comparing and contrasting the law of the land. It's comparative law text. The law of the land and the law of the city on every continent and every age, beginning with the settling of the city of Babylon and bringing it right up for the present.
The only way to understand our common law is to compare and contrast it with its ever present antagonist, the law of the city. Another name for our common law, the law of the land. Another name for our common law is due process process. Due process. Our common law doesn't include due process. It is due process. And it's more important according to our our God that we stress how h o w we go about doing things than it is stressing what the outcome will be. And he's got the outcome wrapped up. The 10 commandments to give us the outcome. Check your premises. When it's all over, have you violated the outcome? That's God business. He also gives us the fairness, which is due process. And we have an adversarial tradition, unlike the law of the city, which it purely, the canon civil laws of Rome, inquisitorial.
Our chief, tool of truth finding is not the oath. I wanna mention this while ago. It is cross examination. Cross examination only exists in the few common law countries in the world. The chief truth finding tool in the law of the city is torture to various degrees, sometimes mild, jail, separation of family, withholding of government privileges, sometimes sometimes, waterboarding. The Bible doesn't allow things like that. Neither does our common law tradition. Never has. Why? Because our common law tradition is all about decency and fairness in a fight, adversarial, not inquisitorial.
Well, that's what we have there. Plus a lot of other books, different subjects like the fourth amendment jury duty, written by yours truly. And also the law school, winners in, we teach courses. We're teaching a course now on Christian nationalism, trying to determine or kicking around the how, what, why, when, where, who. Is it possible? Is it good? Is it bad? Are we a Christian nation? Have we been one? Should we try to be one? Have there been other Christian nations in the world? Yes. Some were de facto. Just Christian nations, in fact, like ours. Some are Christian nations by law, like England, like like, Armenia over there near Asia Minor, First Christian nation in the world by law.
So all these different things, we're just talking about it and how it works and what's best. Roger, are you gonna say something?
[00:57:22] Unknown:
I do have something to say, but, it we're right. Paul given it is and you finishing up, so I'm gonna let you guys roll on, and I'll inject it in a minute. Hopefully It'll be done. Good. Well, just go to commonlawyer.com.
[00:57:33] Unknown:
You can listen to us on the radio. A church on Sundays, in church, I n n, connected with Winters Inn, the law school. And we're going through the books of the Bible. I like to do things, which is best really, I think. Cause by clause and blow by blow progressing through the writings of legal significance, such as the Bible, the greatest writing of legal significance, the law of God, everything about it expresses his will, even the gospel. Even the gospel of salvation without the works of the law is an expression of his will, and the Bible makes that point. Well, thank you, Roger. Go to tomplayer.com
[00:58:09] Unknown:
and yeah. Go ahead. Yeah. And I I encourage y'all to go over there also. If you don't have a church home, Brent, didn't include that he does a church service on Sundays and a class on Saturdays, and he does these in classes on Thursday. And you can, access them by going to the website and going into Winters Inn, I believe. He's got a whole bunch of stuff on Magna Carta and and all all these things that he does with a constitutional sheriff in, Bear what's the county in Michigan? His name's Darleaf.
[00:58:44] Unknown:
Barrie County. Barrie County, Michigan. Sheriff Darleaf teaches the law classes with me. Yep.
[00:58:50] Unknown:
So you get a actual sheriff, viewpoint in there too along with Brent's wonderful insights. Go ahead, Paul. I think we're gonna hear that whistler in just a second here.
[00:59:00] Unknown:
Yeah. We're gonna hear the whistler in a bit, and I'll I'll have to fade it as soon as I'm done. Thank you for joining us, radiosoapbox.com and +1 0690 There's that whistler right there. There he is. Follow us into this second hour by going to the matrixdogs.com and clicking on either the Global Voice Radio link, the Euro Folk Radio link, or, hey, why not punch one of the free conference call links. You can actually join us live on the show. We've got room for, let me see, about 952 more of you. So Alright. Come on down. Come on down. Yeah. There you go. Back to lunch. Stay the day for sure. This is the Radio Ranch with Roger Sales and the cohost Brent Allen Winters. We'll catch you back here Monday.
[00:59:56] Unknown:
No? Yeah. Monday. We don't see do we see him tomorrow? Oh, some of them we might. Okay. Larry, I know you're there. Hold on just a second. Alright. It's something I've been thinking about all week that I wanted to put in front of Brent and see if he's seen it yet. This week over there in the European Union, you know, the guy that used to run the council, they're all they're not elected. They were finagled to fit in that seat. And, so the guy that was there left, and there's a female there now, one of these countesses, Von Bergenstein or something. I can't remember her name, and I'm sorry.
Did you see her announcement this week? No. What was it? Well, Europe, it seems, is now under the, law of the, Talmud. And she started listing out all the things, that they can and can't do and this, that, and the other. I kinda thought it was Christianity was out of Europe, but evidently, that's changed.
[01:01:00] Unknown:
Wow. So is she a a Talmadist or something?
[01:01:04] Unknown:
I think so. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, I see. And little things like it's so funny. Well, I didn't catch all of them, but one of them is like, well, this is what you do if you're away from home on Friday night before the Sabbath. You know, that kind of stuff is all these rules and Pharisee rules and whatnot. I just wondered if you'd seen it. I was gonna look for it and send it to you, but I couldn't find it. So, you know, I did see it on AJ, so I know it's true. Well, it doesn't doesn't surprise me. See, all of
[01:01:38] Unknown:
the the Christianity, it has been since the days of Esther in the Old Testament Yeah. And up until, presently, under by the allowance of God, we have to recognize that he's sovereign. But under the negative, ugly influence of Babylonian Judaism, I say these things because that's what Jesus Christ stressed in the gospel records. Everything he said, for example, the Sermon on the Mount, very famous, everything he said in there was a slap in the face to some doctrine of of, Talmudic Judaism. He he said those famous famous lines that get over and over.
He said, you have heard it said, but I say unto you. Well, he says that several times in the Sermon on the Mount. Now at that time, what was called today the Talmud and the Mishnah were not reduced to writing. They were hidden secret oral tradition called, in the New Testament, Jesus Christ calls it the tradition of the elders. Right. And it wasn't written down until five hundred years after they murdered him. Yes. And the reason it wasn't written was because they didn't want anybody else to know what it said. And they called and and you see this in the New Testament where the rabbis, the Pharisees, call all of their fellow countrymen that, I'm quoting the Bible, that rabble who does not know the law.
Now when they say law, they're not talking about the Bible. They're not talking about the law of Moses. They're talking about, they believe falsely. It's not in the Bible. There are 70 elders in the Bible with Moses in the old Testament, but they add to it and say, well, God gave those 70 elders, a true law, what the law really means. Yeah. And that was handed down to us, rabbis, mouth to mouth, and we are in that line of succession like the Roman pope. You see? Right. And that and there that's not in the Bible any more than, there's a line of succession coming from Peter being first pope. That's not in the Bible anywhere either, not even a hint of it. Well, that's what they say, and all false religions does that. You know, Islam does that too. They say we have the the true understanding of the Quran is in is an oral tradition that is handed down. They have a special name for this group of men that are specially trained to understand it. If you'll notice about the Quran, they never talk about statutes, commandments, and judgment. They never really say what it means. They just hate everybody and wanna go to war and kill people. No. That's the truth. And then they say when they say we're a religion of peace, they yell.
As you understand it, as as the Semitic world understands peace, order in the midst of battle because that's the way you win battles, by maintaining chain of command and order and trying to destroy the order of the other side. That's the way you win a football game too, by the way, trying to destroy whatever plans they have. And you use some pretty rough methods in football, and it gets rougher in war. It's all the same, but they say I say the same war is the same. They say we maintain the order. Well, what is the order? Do they have commandments, statutes, and judgments like we do? No. No. All the Bible's built on command use commandment statutes and judgments. That's why Jesus Christ gave his commentary on his law and the Sermon on the Mount in a fundamental way. You have heard it said. See, that's oral tradition.
But I say unto you, he was talking to the Pharisees, but I say unto you, this is the way this is what the law really means. It doesn't mean that. And then they go on and say, in Judaism, they say that this tradition of the elders, now the Talmud and the Mishnah that has been handed down orally so nobody else would know it, that's that's the true meaning of the law, and only the elite are allowed to know what that is. Just like in Rome, they say only the priest are allowed to interpret the Bible. You aren't allowed to read it. You wanna know what it means, go ask a priest. He knows. The same thing. False religion is always the same. It's called secret knowledge.
It's called degrees of knowledge. And false religion always says there are the haves and the have nots. But what does the Bible say? The Bible says, same book that says, I write these things to you that your joy may be full, first John. Then he later says, or not very much later, he says, they say they know things you don't know. But I say, and John says you that are born from above, I'm not quoting exactly, but this is the idea, you know, all things you have access to all truth. That's us friends. Nobody else has access to it. And even if they saw it, even if they wrote a book about it, it would never strike home to them because they're ever learning as Paul says and never able, never even able, can't come to the knowledge of the truth because their brain is not inhabited by the spirit of god.
That's why. And it's just that's the theme of the Bible. When I talk about the 35,000 footnotes in the winterized version, I'm talking about tracing themes through the Bible and the and the appendices. If you have, there's about, I don't know, half a dozen to a dozen major themes, big themes. You got those. Make sure that you understand everything in light of those, and the Bible stresses those themes. Judaism, now reduced to writing, is the Talmud and the Mishnah, and the official doctrine of Judaism in those writings is that the Bible is for women, children, and other mental deficient.
But the Talmud and the Mishnah, no, no,
[01:07:41] Unknown:
that's, that's
[01:07:42] Unknown:
about 60 volumes of complex stuff. That's for us elite. We not not children, women, and other mental deficient. That's sick, but Rome does the same thing. I've often wondered how does Rome get a pass on not ordaining women and the whole evil empire comes against everybody else? All other groups, Christian groups are claiming Christianity. Rome claims it. How do they get a pass? Nobody mentions. Well, why is it they don't ordain women priests? Nobody even makes a big deal about ordaining women rabbis. Oh, there's a little, but not much. Why? Well, that indicates that they're part of the evil empire. They're not part of the of the true religion as they say they are. Islam the same way. Nobody complains about I can't believe it. The left crying about how women are mistreated, and then Islam comes to America and the women were in were were in burkas and reduced to having their heads chopped off for, not doing what their husbands say, and they do that. In Islamic countries, nobody says a word.
The left does not say a word about that. They don't say they take women out of the airports in these countries and just chop their heads off if they, for example, commit adultery. Well, is adultery wrong? Of course, it's wrong. They just go chop their heads off. What about, just talking back to your husband? Is that wrong? Well, yeah, that's not a smart thing to do. It's not good, but that doesn't mean we're supposed to take you out the airport and chop your head off. There there's no compassion in Islam, and this is that we read recently. We're teaching the current class on Christian nationalism where we went through long passages from the Scottish covenant of, what was it? Sixteen thirty eight or somewhere back there.
Sixteen thirty eight. I read long passages about it and, all well, 300,000 men signed that covenant. 300,000. And the population of Scotland at that time was less than 1,000,000 people. If 300,000 men signed, that means all men of militia age, 20 age 20 years old and upward, 21 at common law, signed that covenant. And over and over, it it it talks about the grievances of false religion, and they do not accept them. They do not accept that children that are not baptized by the priesthood of Rome. They, they don't accept that they go to hell. That was what the church of Rome was teaching. Gotta get that baby in here and get it baptized. Salvation by baptism. See salvation by something you do instead of something or all that God has done. Or they said, we don't accept that. We do not accept what Rome says that a woman that's been divorced can't remarry. We don't accept that. That's not what the Bible says. That's what Rome says. That's what the priesthood says. That's they called it that cruel doctrine. And it is cruel. Of course, both of those doctrines are cruel and a whole lot of other doctrines they mentioned.
We're here to say that we have a, we have a Pope and it's a paper Pope called the Bible to put it in blunt terms. And the Bible is the final rule of faith and practice. The final court of last result, resort in all things. Here it is. And anything less will bring hell upon a nation. What I'm worried about, worried. No, not worried. Nothing I can do about God's sovereign and I rejoice and he's going to bring all this ugliness together for my good. He says so. Not other people's good, not, not the non elect, but God's chosen. He'll bring it together for their good. That's me, and I hope that's you. Bring it together for their good. In the meantime, he still calls me to say the truth.
And when I say the truth, I know this seems silly. It's not like I have a big following. It's not like I make a pinch of money. Nobody pays me a salary to, to teach the Bible or to say what I'm saying here. But I say it because I firmly believe that the truth of God's word is more powerful as Mary, queen of Scotts acknowledged, more powerful than anything else anybody could ever do. I believe it's that powerful. I've seen it. The Bible says it over and over again. We're not we're not here to defend the word of God. We're here to unleash it. It's a lie. Just unleash it. That's all you gotta do. Let it run free. Let it run. Jesus and it will conquer everything. If we have freedom of speech, keep doing that.
Jesus Christ said, I just went over this two days ago. John chapter 17 just before he turned himself over and he did, he turned himself over to the, to the powers that be to murder him. That's why he came to pay the penalty for our law breaking our sin. But he went to the garden there on they called it a garden. It was a, olive garden, probably just an orchard. They went out in it, and they fell down on his face by himself, and he prayed. And then we call it the high priestly prayer of John 17. Well, Jesus Christ, according to the Bible, is of the order of Melchizedek, of the priestly order of Melchizedek, which is above the temporary priestly order of Levi above it.
A priestly order of Levi of the Old Testament has run its course and done its job and doesn't need to do anything else. And, the high priestly order of the man called Melchizedek. Malik means king and Sadiq means right headedness or righteousness to put it in the common term. But righteousness means right headedness means you got your nose pointed in the right direction. Well, Melchizedek, that's Jesus. The Christ is head of that priesthood and the high priest of that priesthood. And he prays a priest intercedes for men to God.
A priest represents interceding for men toward God. A prophet intercedes for God to men. It's just the opposite direction. A prophet speaks for God to men. And when anybody speaks the truth, when anybody repeats the Bible or teaches the Bible, if they're saying what's true, they're functioning in the office of prophet. The Bible says that we do have the prophets that pin the Bible. That's, of a higher dignity. No question. But prophecy is not telling you like rabbi Khan. I know people that read him every day or some other pagan soothsayer telling you what the future is.
No, that's not prophecy. A prophecy, the word itself, not be in the Hebrew tongue, but prophetase in the new Testament. It means to pro, meaning pro means before in front of, and faces is the word like confess. Same Latin root means to speak Latin root in the Greek as well to speak. It It means fundamentally to speak before other people. And it's implied, of course, with the word that you're speaking truth. You're saying what God said. Thy word, Jesus Christ praying, says thy word, which are proven claims. That's what that word means. Lagos, proven claims. It's, from the courts of Rome. It means a claim that's proven.
Thy proven claim is truth. Thy word is truth. That's the King James. Thy word is truth. Is that true? Yes. That's true. But to put more color in it, thy proven claims, that's the word of god, makes its proven claims, is proven fact. Alethea, the Greek word translated truth. Is it truth? Yes. But what is truth? Pilate said to Jesus Christ cynically. He bathed, as judges do today in our courts, they bathe everything in cynic acid. And he said, he said, what is truth? Well, alethea is proven fact. Logos is a proven claim. Alethea is a proven fact as evidence to back it up.
Related concepts, by the way. And when Jesus Christ said thy word, thy proven claim is truth proven fact. Well, that's makes good sense. Well, the word of God are claims that are proven fact, they're proven. The evidence for them is overwhelming. Even, the standards of our common law, which are good standards, they're biblical. It's overwhelming that it's true and reliable evidence. That's what we need to tell people, and that's what is that's the weapons the strongest weapon of our warfare is truth, and it's found most purely in the Bible. Now while ago while ago, Paul said we were gonna open it up for questions, and I apologize.
I forgot that, and that's a good idea. Maybe, Roger,
[01:16:44] Unknown:
if you're in agreement, we should do that. Yes. I always like to interact with the folks here, and Larry has been patiently standing in line. He's gonna revert back to part of what we said in the first part of the show. Ain't that right, Larry? You still there?
[01:17:00] Unknown:
Yeah. I'm here. I I had to wipe the fluff off my mouth. I told you. Yeah. Uh-huh. So this is to this question's to Brent. A while ago, you were talking about the Japanese flag depicting the symbol of the rising sun. Do you think that down through the centuries, the Japanese convoluted the facts of the gospel being told through the constellations? And I have a comment about that. It's my understanding that according to Genesis 15, the Lord told Abraham the gospel and that it can be seen in the heavens. It starts with Virgo the virgin and ends with Leo the lion of the tribe of Judah. So I'd just like your thoughts on that subject.
[01:17:44] Unknown:
Well, first, to expand on it without me saying it, I would recommend a book and it's called, oh, I remember the author, but the the you can find it really easy if you have the author. The author is e as in echo, w as in whiskey. Those are two letters, abbreviations, his first name and his middle name, e w Bullinger, b u l l I n g e r, I believe. Oh, it's called the witness, witness of the stars. That's the name of the book. That guy did a lot of work. And what his point is again, and this is my point to the laws of nature and the laws of nature's God are the only two volumes of revelation that God has given to man. And those are the two volumes, the laws of nature, the way God revealing himself in creation and the heavenly bodies are integral to that.
Psalm chapter 19. That's the theme of those few verses. There is the laws of nature and what we can learn from the heavenly bodies. We know in the Bible, go to the book of Job Job. Job, by the way, without question is the oldest book of the Bible written. It was written before Genesis. Genesis talks about the creation. Yes. But Genesis was written after Job. Job is the most ancient book we have in the Bible, and that's from internal evidence of the book. But in the book of Job, we see the constellations, the constellations mentioned in illustration.
The constellations have been around forever. Remember the Magi and there weren't three wise men. That'd be silly to say that, but the powers that be have promoted that idea, within the tivity scene, but probably it doesn't say there's three anywhere in the Bible, but probably a whole lot more, but they had been studying. What do you remember the stars? And they discovered that by studying the stars, if you study nature friends, it'll lead you to the word of God. If you study in nature, it will lead you to the word of God and the word of God supports that idea. You know, it's interesting to back up.
I like to quote this fellow that was, at the battle of Concord and that when the, our war started with Britain for separation from Britain, his name was, Preston, captain Preston and a lawyer in the 1840s. A lawyer got to try and understand how it was that a ragtag bunch of farmers and, other kind of men, mostly farmers probably because that's what people did back then mostly could have defeated the most powerful, well fed, well trained, well equipped, equipped army in the world, the British regulars. How'd that happen? So he went looking for veterans of the war, early wars of the, of that conflict, that war with Britain.
And he found this old fellow named captain Preston, and he was 91 years old. I remember right. You do the math, see if that works out right. And he said to him, he wanted to know what would have motivated him to do this, to fight the British. And he said, were you, were you oppressed by intolerable oppressions? And the old militiamen said, oppressions. He said, I didn't feel any. And he he's trying to figure out what motivated him. See, he said, what? He said, weren't you oppressed by the stamp act? He said, I never saw one of those stamps. And I certainly never paid a penny for one. We said, well, what about the T tax?
He said, T tax. He said, I'll never drank a drop of the stuff. The boys threw it all overboard, referring to the Boston tea party. I'll say that, well, this guy wasn't motivated by that, but maybe he's an intellectual. So he said, well, I suppose you'd been reading Harrington or Sydney Algernon Sydney, or John Locke about the eternal principles of Liberty. He said, I never heard of them. Now watch this. He said, I never heard of those intellectuals, John Locke, Algernon Sydney, and Harrington. I never heard of them. All we ever read, he said, what's this was the Bible, the almanac, the, the Bible, Watts, Psalms, and hymns and the almanac.
That's all we ever read. Now that's significant. Why? Because the Bible is the laws of nature's God. That's what that phrase means in our declaration. And the Almanac is all about what the laws of nature, the seasons, the weather, when to plant according to the signs of the heavenly bodies. And by the way, I'm fully convinced that's real. I grew up in that world and we planted according to the signs when I was growing up. We even put in our fence post and tempt them in. We built fence according to the signs. And my grandmother who never cut her hair her whole life trimmed but she did trim off the split ends. She only split off this trimmed off the split ends of her hair when the moon was going out, when the moon was waning.
And we recognize that the water and the horse horse tank would go clear when the moon was waning. We never planted our root crops when the moon was waxing. If you did, you wouldn't get anything, but taters the size of peanuts, and although they would be beautiful plants, they'd all go to top. All of that is true. We witched our water wells. Why? Well, they worked that way. Don't ask me why. There are a lot of theories why it's not witchcraft. It's the laws of nature. We witched them and dug them and we had water. What am I what am I saying? Hold hold it. Hold on. Hold on. Yeah. And then Larry has to come in when I get done and get to you. What I'm saying is So where's that clicking coming from?
[01:24:08] Unknown:
Yeah. That's a fire.
[01:24:11] Unknown:
Oh, well, it doesn't yeah. I feel it all the way down here. Go ahead, Brent. What what I'm saying is,
[01:24:16] Unknown:
yes. Now how this you cited the, Abraham going out and look at the stars. I don't take that at all as the gospel being told to Abraham in the sense, I think we're, we'd think of it today. All he said to Abraham there in the fifteenth chapter was, he was establishing his trust settlement with his people. And we are the sons of Abraham because we have embraced what Abraham trusted. And he brought him out after he gave him, God told him what he was going to do. And he brought him out and he said, you look up at the stars of the heavens. He said, that's how many you can't even count the stars of the heavens. That's how many, how many, will be your descendants in this trust that I have established with you. And if you're interested in that, I can talk more about that trust. I'm teaching it now in our trust class, and that's where the trust of God was established in a meaningful way that covered the three elements, indispensable elements of the common law trust.
But he did tell him to look at the stars, but the gospel wasn't in that. That was, an illustration that God made of his descendants. And it's an important thing. But, notice also that it says there, Genesis chapter 15, verse six, and that same narrative, God told him what he would do. He would give him a land. And then it says, and he caused it's in the cause of Tim in the Hebrew text, he caused Abraham to believe God. He caused Abraham to believe God, God, and it was logged down for Abraham as right headedness righteousness. There is the fundamental gospel friends. The first mention of it in clear terms, salvation is by you trusting what God has said.
God said something to Abraham. He trusted it to be true, but in significantly, it's clear that it's in the cause it stem of the Hebrew verb, by the way, that is the first appearance by the way, that is, that is the first appearance of the word. Amen. In the Bible, amen is a Hebrew word. Amen. It's pronounced amen, but there the first appearance of it, it's in the verb form, Abraham, amen, God, what did Abraham do? God said, here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to give you a land for you and your descendants. And what did Abraham do? He said, amen.
And God counted it to him for righteousness. He logged it down on the positive side of the ledger. That's how you get snatched from hell to my friends. You just say him amen to God's word. Do you feel like saying amen? Say it. That means God has enabled you to do that and has impelled you to do it. Don't resist it. Do it. Say amen to the Bible. Amen. To what God says. And that's how it starts. And after that, you have the capacity and the desire to know what it is that God wants you to do. But many people have told you that that doesn't matter. The, all of Christa, all of dispensational Christianity, all of, what we call Judeo Christian support to the nation, Israel Christianity, which is most Christianity has been in the past has said the law of God doesn't matter.
That my friends is the doctrine of Balaam, which we're talking about in the 10 commandments. We're gonna get to that tomorrow and how it is that dispensationalism is the doctrine of Balaam. It is apostasy. Get away from it. Yeah. Know the will of God. He's told us what he wants. Let's just relax as Christian folk and see if we can do some of it. That's where the enjoyment comes in. Larry, are you if you're there, don't forget that book, Larry, if you maybe you've already got it. That book Larry has a beautiful chart that folds out like a Playboy fold out. I know you don't know what that is, so maybe I should use another illustration. But that old book written a hundred years ago called Witness of the Stars, you open it up, and it has a fold out chart of the heavens.
With all of the constellations and all of the stars of note, he goes into great detail talking about the the intensity of the of the stars, what and what it means and how the gospel is communicated through the stars. Is it? Yes. It is. That's true. But that's the that's the communication of condemnation. All of nature, there's two kinds of revelation, the laws of nature and the laws of nature is God, the laws of nature, God revealing himself in creation is a revelation of condemnation. It only condemns us only condemns us. It tells us, oh, there's a God he's awesome. He's dreadful. He's mighty. He's wonderful. He's unpredictable. He's dangerous.
Creation is dangerous friends. It tells us that, but it is the word of God, the proven claims that lead us directly and unambiguously The laws of nature lead us to the word of God written, and that's what leads us to an understanding of Jesus, the Christ, the savior, the the high priest of the order of Melchizedek, and on and on the the information goes more than we can learn in a lifetime. Let's get started. And it all comes back to God wants a people who is willing and does do what he tells them to do, follows his law, his will. That's the purpose of salvation. The purpose of salvation is not to snatch you from hell. That's not the chief purpose, but he snatches you from, snatches you from hell. Why? So he will have a people who are committed to his glory by obeying him. That's the proper view of salvation.
The biblical view, I should say, not my opinion. It's just what it says point blank. It's a matter of reading it and saying, yeah. I yeah. Amen to that. Amen. Abraham. Amen. God. Larry, back to you.
[01:30:32] Unknown:
No. Well, yeah, Larry, you gotta follow-up on that?
[01:30:37] Unknown:
Not really. That that answers my question. I'll look into that book. One thing I wanna mention is, a couple of years ago, my brother-in-law and I discovered some website. And what this website did was it it enabled it created an the creator of the website created an algorithm, and they were able because the con the constellations and the stars, they're very constant as they as they move around in the heavens. And so they they created this algorithm that was able to go back in time following all the stars, like the way they move, and they were able to pinpoint the very day that the the the Magi, I guess, is what you call them, they when they were confronted by the angel, and they were told, to follow the star. And what it was is there's only one time in history where certain stars were lined up, in a certain way, and this is all depicted on this one website. I'm gonna try to dig it up, and maybe I can bring it to your attention next time we talk about these things. But it was very interesting to see that in that on that website.
[01:31:55] Unknown:
Yeah. I've watched this fellow's video. I know what you're talking about, and that was a few years back. Yeah. It's possible because the the heavenly bodies, we can predict exactly where where they will be a million years from now, a thousand years, because they never deviate. That's why we are we we are, instructed to pray, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on land as it is up in the sky. Nothing in the sky is out of sync with God. Nothing. It's perfect. Predictable. Everything is perfect. Some of that is communicated to the land through the signs, like the almanac teaches and through the tides, for instance. That's from the heavens, controlling what goes down here on land, and we are to pray that that is what happens, that god's perfect will is consistent, never changing will is communicated from the skies to the land.
But that book, yeah, it's a good book. And, you know, the the the this is a tradition, but it makes sense as the Magi, and that's the from where we get our word magic, they were pagans, my friends, pagan priests. That's why I say I don't I don't and I shouldn't, and you shouldn't either always dismiss what a man says or does because he's a he's a demon worshiper. God will speak through anybody he wants to speak through. But remember, the court of last resort is the written word of God, Period. Period. End of paragraph, end of sentence, end of everything. That's it. Don't say, well, he's the final word, but there have been times if God had could speak through the mouth of a a Ginny ass, he could speak through me.
The the tradition is, and this makes sense that the Magi moved from the East. Of course, like a sailor on the ocean, the stars would move a portion would appear not to move. They don't move. The stars would have a different position in the sky as you move across the face of the oceans. Well, they came from a long ways to the east, and then they came west. And as they move, this would change position, and the star they were following would move further and further up in the sky. And the tradition is when they got the they followed it and they got to Bethlehem, they had to wander around a little bit to see where it was, but they knew that when it was straight up, it's the tradition, not the Bible.
They knew it was straight up. They knew where they were in the right place, and they went to Bethlehem at night. They got there after dark, and they went to the Well Of David, which is the town well. And they were gonna draw some water up to get a drink, and they drew water up. But when they looked over in the well, they saw the reflection of the star and they knew it was straight overhead. And because they knew it was straight overhead, that was the proper location of the birth of the of God himself, the Messiah. Well, thank you, Larry. And if you find that, you can either post it, here for other people that if I find it, maybe I will, too. But,
[01:34:46] Unknown:
no. The the laws of nature are important, and we don't wanna ignore them. Roger, there's somebody else that had Who is Joe sitting in front of a crackling fire with, I assume, a cup of coffee? Is that right, Joe?
[01:35:00] Unknown:
Joe? Uh-oh.
[01:35:04] Unknown:
We'll get Joe here. Glad Joe. Just so long to get around to him that he is off doing something else. Joe, when you come back in, if you can hear this, just break in, and we'll try and recognize you. Are you there yet? Okay. May I please send a little Yes, ma'am. Yes, ma'am. You may. Yes. You may, Linda. Please.
[01:35:26] Unknown:
I would like Brent to repeat, hear me well, dear Christian friend. A godless life is a godless end. Keep the faith. And then I I lost it.
[01:35:37] Unknown:
Let me now let me see if I can do it again. Let me start at the beginning. Hear me well, dear Christian friend. A godless life brings a godless end. So keep the faith and in pursuit, for trust in God is wisdom's root.
[01:36:01] Unknown:
Thank you.
[01:36:02] Unknown:
I love that. You can credit that. Make it fancy. F Douglas Winters.
[01:36:14] Unknown:
Is that your that was your dad's own poem?
[01:36:17] Unknown:
That well, yeah. I think what dad written a lot of poems. I matter of fact, he's he's like his mother. His you know, it was fashionable back, a hundred and twenty five years ago when my grandmother was born. And, girls, young girls would, trade poems. They're really big into that. My great grandma, Mackenzie, she I've got her book of poems that she used to trade with her friends when she was in eighth grade. And and they they thought that was a a big thing, and it was. But dad, wrote this poem, and I'm gonna repeat it to, to oh, here's one. Now this one I'm I'm not looking up. Let's see if I can he said that two British sailors taught taught him this poem when he was 17 years old in the South Pacific during the war.
Two British sailors that had signed up in the American Navy to get citizenship. That's the way you used to. I don't know if you still can, but that's the way people used to get citizenship. They'd do a stint. You know, there was a few medal of honor winners from Pearl Harbor that were immigrants from places like Poland. I I remember one particular fellow that died in the bottom of a ship because he wouldn't come out. The ship was sinking. It would the the it was filling with water. But he said, he sent the noise up or sent the word up on his phone. It was still working his sound powered phone. As long as I hear the the the, gun above firing, I'm not leaving my post.
And, he was in the bottom. He was running the generators, the machinery that allowed the gun to move. And he died. He drowned down there because he wouldn't leave his post. He was a Polish immigrant. I don't remember his name. No. People like that are forgotten, and they shouldn't. They are. Incredible things that young men do out of conviction. And he, a Polish man that wanted to be an American, and he was earning his citizenship. Well, anyway, these two British sailors, taught that this poem. Let's see if I can quote it. And it has to do with Peter the apostle and and sailors and and the sea and walking on the water. You remember the story? Peter walked on the wall. Jesus Christ was walking on the water, but Peter, Jesus Christ said, come hither. And then Peter believed and he got out, but then his trust began to waver and he began to sink down and sink down into the turbid waters of the city of Galilee, and Jesus Christ reached down and pulled him out.
Okay. Let me try this one. The sea in time brings everything down. It retains what it keeps and returns what is found. There is no deceit can be laid at his feet. There is no power it's been known to obey. Talking about the sea. There is no power it's been known to obey except the power that saved Peter when he turned away. Except the power that saved Peter when he turned away. And Dad likes that that that, record of Peter the Apostle when he began to doubt and he began to sink. And that's applicable to us now, and that's why that narrative is there. And also, he likes the story, especially of the prodigal, the prodigal son.
You know why the prodigal son, he got he ended up in a pig pen, squandered his father's wealth, ended up in a pig pen, you know, eating pig feed. This is a a Hebrew boy eating pig feed with the pigs. Got a job feeding pigs, ran out of money and food, and he got down in the hog lot and started eating with the pigs. And all of a sudden, a light went on his head. He said, I'm not a pig. I'm my wealthy father's son. And he got up out of the pig pen, went home. And people say, well, why did he get up out of the pig pen? Well, the reason he got up out of the pig pen went home because he wasn't a pig. But he finally he dawned on him he wasn't a pig, and that's the way a lot of Christian folk are.
They don't know the law of God. They don't have any enjoyment. They're eating with the pigs. But at some point, if you're truly the elect of God, you'll get out of the pig pen. You will. It's not a matter of you might know you will. Oh, God will get you out. He will lighten your mind. The light will go on again. You'll be like a king. Well, who was that? What was that King's name? That Babylonian King that went insane. And he was out in the, in the open field eating grass like an ox and his fingernail grew long, like a claws of a bird. He slept out in the rain for seven years. He lived like an animal.
And then the Bible says, all of a sudden the light went on. And he said, wait a minute. I'm not an animal. And he realized and confessed that the maker of heaven and earth is king of kings and lord of lords. And he wasn't an Israelite, by the way. The gospel is for the non Israelites. The reason the Israelites were given the task of producing the Messiah of God and the sacrificing him, albeit for the wrong reasons, they did it because they are the nation of priests that were to sacrifice. You see, God gets what he wants out of everybody, and they did that for our benefit.
They are the nation of priests that offered up the supreme sacrifice, the in infinite sacrifice for the sins of God's people, and that's for us. We are the ultimate the what do they call it? The the the ultimate. Yeah. Not the the Israel is penultimate. This is the way the Latin logicians would say it. Israel is the penultimate end of salvation. And us, the rest of the world, the races of men, and there are more than one race within the one race of Adam, the races of men are the ultimate object of God's salvation. Well, let's see if if,
[01:43:14] Unknown:
Joe came back. Roger. Oh, hold on, Annette. Let's check. Joe, did you get back by the fire? Go ahead, Annette.
[01:43:27] Unknown:
What time what, what moon cycle did y'all plant? Or I I it got away from me. I yield. I didn't understand the question, Roger. Waning waning, I believe, is the answer. Oh, You you talking about cutting your hair or setting fence posts? Planting. Planting. Oh, plant planting. Well, root crops. Root we always planted root crops when the moon is waning. Because if you plant fruit crops when the moon is waxing, in other words, getting fatter, bigger, somehow it will all be drawn to top, and there won't be anything in the root crop. I planted taters when I got home, trying to raise a family and my children little, and we moved the hogs off the hog plot. They've probably been there for fifty years.
And I didn't realize that we I never tried it. Plant and garden where you have a hog lot. It won't work. The hog manure is too rich. It's like it's high octane. And, after fifty years of that being on those hills and hollers on the sand hills, I wasn't gonna do any good. But at any rate, I planted potatoes. And my grandma came over and, my father's mother. And, she had her bonnet on. You know, women used to wear those bonnets. The older gals at home wore those bonnets that came out from all sides like blinders. You know? Yep. And, grandma always made her own bonnets. And she wouldn't wear a bonnet unless she thought it pretty. You know, that's the way girls are. And us boys ought to be happy about that, by the way.
But she she made her own bonnets, and she'd starch them, and they'd stick out a certain way. And she came over at the house, and I said, grandma, I gotta show you my garden because I she's a gardener. You know, she like to milk cows and and plant garden. Make garden, as they say at home. They don't say plant garden at home. They say make garden. She made garden, and she loved milk cows. She was the grandma that had a on her father's side, he was of Dutch descent. And Dutch people love milk cows, and my grandma was no exception, but she wouldn't drink milk.
And she never liked milk. Mhmm. She loved butter. She'd eat butter like people eat, candy. And she lived up to be a hundred and two, by the way. Can't argue with it. Can't argue with eating butter. Eat butter. Show me a person who won't eat butter because they think it'll make them fat, and I'll show you a fat person. Eat butter, friends. It will help you not be fat. That's I think there's plenty of evidence about that, but real butter don't and my grandma would not allow she'd say, I ain't gonna let no oleo no oleo in this house. Yep. You know, we used to call margarine oleo.
Right. I said go.
[01:46:10] Unknown:
Crisco.
[01:46:12] Unknown:
Well, Oli Oli was that stuff they manufactured margarine.
[01:46:16] Unknown:
Yes.
[01:46:16] Unknown:
Margarine. And, I said, well, where'd you learn that grandma? She was always reading stuff. You know, she not like she went to some university, but she liked to read and she did a good job and kept a daily diary of everything that happened around. And she said, well, my dad wouldn't let polio in the house. Now her father was born in 1871. He's married before the turn of the century. Grandma was born about that time, and I said, grandma, they didn't have margarine back then. I mean, I remember the TV commercials about margarine. It was a new thing, you know, in the sixties or something. Oh, she oh, no. We had margarine, but we called it Olio. And I didn't believe her, and I did a little research and found out it was true. And her father would not let that stuff in the house because he had learned somehow. I think the Germans invented it, and it actually or two theories, and they're probably both true. A German engineer invented margarine as a lubricant in submarines that would not be flat would not be flammable. Right. They needed something that wouldn't burn on ships. You don't want lubricants that will burn.
I can tell you that for sure. If you have a lubricant that will burn, well, that's just more dangerous. So Sure. That's what margarine is. Of course, people have other theories about it, but he wouldn't let it in the house. And she wouldn't either. And, no oleo. Oleo, they used to buy it and made the research and then they'd mix it. You didn't just buy it like margin bought today. It's the same thing, only you'd have to mix it with two ingredients back in in in the late eighteen hundreds, they came out with this stuff. Well, yeah. They had submarines in the late eighteen hundreds, by the way. Yeah. That was, an upcoming thing in warfare.
No question about that. But, what was I talking about? What were we talking about? Larry, you're back to the fire. What's that? Well, I was back to the fire.
[01:48:06] Unknown:
While it was off, and I can't stay very long. But for those of you who doubt what Brent's saying, if you ever set a line of fence posts and you take a month to do it, you will see that there are some holes that have you have more than enough dirt to fill the hole back in and some fence post or post holes you don't have enough dirt. And when you and when you wean calves, if you wean them in the right sign, they won't ball as much. In fact, some of them won't have ball at all. That's the reason someone wean their babies by the sign.
And dehorning and castrating, if you do the right sign, you'll have little, if any, bleeding. So there is much to what he says. All I was trying to do is confirm what you were saying, Brent. Thank you, Joe. Hey, Joe. Yeah. Thanks. Yeah. Go ahead.
[01:49:06] Unknown:
Joe? What? Is it waning? When you castrate and dehorn, is it waning that it's the same time? You go to your old farmer's almanac. Got it. Okay. Thank you. And that's why that's why old captain Preston way back there in the eighteen forties said, we read nothing but the Bible. That's the laws of nature's God. And the Almanac. That's the laws of nature. Yeah. And, planting and and breeding your livestock and appreciate that, Joe. Here, there's one, Joe. Joe, there's one thing that my granddad swore by, and I tested it, and I found out it wasn't true. We used to cut down trees, and then we'd let them a big tree, a big oak or something with white oak or a, red oak. We'd let it lay for three or four years so it'd get dry, and then we'd cut it up for firewood. So we're always cutting wood ahead. You had to fill the tree before you cut it up.
And, cut down a tree, and that'd be an all day job, cutting down a big tree the way we used to do it, wedges and all that. And, then I'd being lazy as I was, I'd sit down on the stump. He'd come over and say, get it up. Get it. Get off the stump. I was like, why? I'm tired. He said, well, if you sit on the stump after you cut a tree down, you'll catch cold. I well, I didn't believe him. So I tried it, and I I couldn't tell, though, really. I say I didn't know. I just well, I should say this. I couldn't gather the data because every year I get a cold no matter what. I don't do that anymore because I'm not around people anymore. I stay away from people. And if you stay away from people, you'll never get a cold. That's been my experience for what it's worth. Here's another one, Joe, and I appreciate the ones that you mentioned.
But, my granddad and my dad take me out, and they'd say, hey. Look here. Here's a ring around the moon. You know, it'd be a ring of light around the moon. Seeing that. Yeah. And he said, well, now count how many stars you can see with your naked eye in there. Don't use binoculars or anything, but just how many stars you can see within that ring. And you will have snow, rain, sleet, or hail within that many days. I found that one to be true too. You see these old timers, they just all that like, they were like the Magi. They didn't try to explain it. They just said they observed it. These, these people, these Babylonians, boy, they knew their stars and they'd been observing them for centuries and keeping records.
They knew where everything would be. They did find what they called the wandering stars, and they had a hard time with those because they appeared to just wander. And that was the planets, of course, the planets. But they finally kept records long enough of that, then they discerned that that was a very distinct pattern also. And you could predict where they would be once you had that pattern down. The stars are simpler. They just go around in a perfect circle around the center point, which is near the North Star. The North Star isn't exactly center. It makes a little tiny circle as everything goes around, but that gives us a point that we can we can predict from. Well, again, yeah, laws of nature and the laws of nature's god and the almanac, we used to my brother and I, we would with bated breath, we would wait and, till the new almanac came out and went down down to feed mill.
And we go down to feed mill, they'd have it there, and we get it and read all of the they had not only the signs of the seasons, but also had articles in there about all sorts of interesting things. And you can still get that almanac in the arm stores. Yeah. Yep.
[01:52:39] Unknown:
Paul was trying to get something in.
[01:52:42] Unknown:
Yeah. Once a year. I just got a quick question. Been quite a while since you've caught a cold, Brent?
[01:52:49] Unknown:
Oh, yeah. Quite a while. I've ever since I divested myself from social life, I used to be quite a social person, a man of the public, running for public office and all those kinds of things. And every year in the winter, I'd get a cold. And now now that I don't, buddy with people and I'm a stay away from crowds, I don't get one anymore. By the way, if you keep your children away from public school, public well, government school Yeah. Or any school, your children won't be as sick either. I've seen that with my grandchildren big time. Yep.
[01:53:21] Unknown:
Okay. It's been a while since you've had a cold, but how long has it been since you cut down a tree?
[01:53:29] Unknown:
Well, I my old shoulders won't take it the way they used to. Yeah. I yeah. And I so I don't even I tried digging fence posts ten years ago with a fella, and I said, well, that's the last time I'm gonna do that. I could tell one of my shoulders are gonna blow out, so I just quit. Yeah. You know, taking that at the fence post, hole digger up and down. But, I do know how to use one. I've done it more times than I can count thousands of time probably. We seem like we were always tearing down fence that needed to be torn down and building a fence that needed to be built. It's a skill that's been forgotten. We used barbed wire, of course. We didn't call it barbed wire. We call it barbed wire. I didn't know the difference till I got older. I thought it was barbed wire. You know, barbed wire changed them changed America.
It, made a lot of things different. But, anyway, no, fence building is important. And, Joe here, Joe. Now just to give you Joe. Joe, I what I know about Joe. Joe lives out in the middle of nowhere. I I won't say where. He may not want me to say if he wants to pipe in and say he can. And, he farms, and he raised livestock. And I he's old enough. He's watched this all his life. He probably heard his parents and his grandparents say the same thing. And pretty soon, it's just the unwritten laws of nature, the unwritten laws of nature. That's why we say Blackstone says lex non scripta. Those Magi did not ask why it worked out the way it did. They just observed the patterns and said, wait a minute. We're seeing a pattern here. And that's what you see in the laws of nature. You see patterns over long periods of times and you come to conclusions inductively.
Wait a minute. The sun comes up every morning. It's been going on for seventy years. I'll bet you it'll come up in the morning tomorrow. See, that's the way you do. That's called the laws of nature. We can we plant and stake our lives on planting and harvesting, not just farmers. Right. Everybody who eats have staked their lives, but the seasons will not change. And the Bible promises the seasons will not change until God destroys this whole world. Yeah. And the rainbow is the sign of that. And as one person observed here not long ago in the chat, it says, isn't it funny that, the evil empire takes what God has set for a sign to us to teach us about the laws of nature, that he would never destroy the world by water again and make it a symbol of of sex perversion.
[01:55:52] Unknown:
Yeah. And it's opposite. Do you know that?
[01:55:55] Unknown:
It's yeah. The opposite. What was that? Go ahead. The colors are the opposite,
[01:56:00] Unknown:
direction. Never pay that. Well, they flip everything in their world is an opposite. It's all dialectics.
[01:56:07] Unknown:
Well, I'm glad I'm glad you brought that up because I wanna say this too because I've just found out that there are people out there actually listening to what I say and writing stuff down. I'm gonna give you something I learned when I was a boy, the laws of nature that, is always true, and it's important. And this is one of the most important signs that God ever gave us. It's easy to see, and it's the colors of the rainbow. And they're they are in the following order. Red or Roy g bib. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. Always in that order. I learned that as a boy in school, by remembering Roy, r o y g, that's his middle initial, bib. Blue, indigo, and violet. Roy g bib. I hope somebody wrote that down. Children need to be talking to me. Linda. Get that, Linda.
Yeah. Hey. This I I know we're joking, but to me, this is really God talking talking to us. What he reveals to us makes it. And if we don't know that, we die. We live by it. And it is our to sustain in touch with those laws that keeps us from spinning out of control into madness. Land. God demands that we be in touch with his land. And as we become more citified, we've lost what will make us a powerful nation nation being in touch with reality, as we say, in our common law tradition, being down to the ground. Are we down to the ground? Are we grounded?
And the answer is is no. We're losing it quick, and the evil empire is making it happen by the Judaization. Judaization is the certification, the civilization Yeah. In Latin of people. Yeah. Judaism, Islam, and also Romanism, the three biggies, and the Greek Orthodoxism. All of those are the Judaization, Babylonianism, the Babylonization of God's people. And they push very hard. There's a resurgence of Greek orthodoxy. It is the law of the city, friends. It is acidification. It's baloney. It's drawn us away from the laws of nature and the laws of nature's God.

Roger, go ahead. Hey. Did you hear Mike Bloomberg's comment on farmers? He said, I don't know what what what makes farming such a big deal. All you do is put a seed in the ground.
[01:58:28] Unknown:
Well, you know, the low end that's the lowest the lowest existence to a man according to the Talmud. The lowest you can go as a man
[01:58:37] Unknown:
is to be a farmer. Yeah. Now A bring into the Talmud. That brings up something. When they were taken into Babylonian captivity, I I have read or heard that they, first of all, only kinda took the elite class and that when they got them to Babylon, they put them up as farmers outside of the city as a buffer against any enemies. Have you ever heard that?
[01:59:00] Unknown:
Oh, sure. Well, the Romans, you know, you can read the writings of the Romans, and they say the best the best, leaguineers we can find are boys that live out in the middle of nowhere. And that's true. And the the, barons of England said the same thing. There's a famous poem, speaking of poems, written about that, and it's called the Saxon. Kipling writing about Oh, okay. The Saxon is the best man of war you can find. And the reason they said that was and I don't know why this is true. I guess I need to think about it some some more. I think there's when you're in touch with the land, when you're down to the ground, your whole view of reality is different. Yes. And I am I'm a year ago. I'm a I I I talk as a man who has spent years living in the city, and I couldn't stand it.
And I know it affected me in a in a negative way. And when I came home, finally, after military service and school and all that, my father, he couldn't stand to be around me, and I didn't understand what the problem was. And it got real ugly there for a while. I mean, real ugly. I was going through the throes of of emotional and difficulty
