WDRN productions is, having, Internet connectivity as well as some legal issues. They're actually, doing, they're they're kind of in the middle of a court case that's about ready to, wrap up. So, they'll be, with us as soon as they possibly can be. Okay.
[00:03:31] Unknown:
Don't we miss them? Yes. Morning, Brent Francine. I guess that's is that all Paul or is there more? That is it. That's all for me. Yes. It's Das as always. Okay. Well, it's the Friday edition, and, Brent and Franny are with us. And, it's it hadn't been a real a week of explosive news, Brent, but there's been some well, there's a lot of stuff out there as always. Don't know that any of it comes right to the front of my mind. I continue to be impressed with mister Trump and, what he's doing, against, great odds. Great odds. The would it would it be accurate? These these, adversaries of ours, you could classify them as a pack of hyenas, jackals. Are jackals the same as hyenas?
[00:04:24] Unknown:
I don't know, Roger, but they are the same in my book. They're just a bunch of yapping, carnivorous, roadkill eating, low bottom feeding critters. That's what them. Yeah. That's them. That's all I need to know. But, yeah, I'm not familiar. They're kinda the same. And and like they say in, on the other side of the world someplace, in the Arab world, the world of the weird beards, they say and have been saying for centuries that, the caravan walks and the dogs bark. And if you stop to kick every barking dog, you won't get anywhere. But that's what they want you to do, to stop and kick at them. But, you know, there's some dogs, if you don't kick them right in the teeth, I mean, hard, they'll hurt you.
And then if you don't keep doing it every once in a while, they'll come back and try to hurt you some more. Well, that's what we got here. And, they're insane. They're Yes. They are. They're crazy. As some people kindly said, during the Biden and Obama administration, we were in clown town. Everywhere you look, you saw a clown on a unicycle, but it's worse than that. It's worse than that. That's a nice way of putting it. These clowns are demonic. They're dangerous. They they come to kill, to steal, and destroy. I'm not interested in that. I wanna see life and life more abundant.
But in order to do that, there has to be a fight. I understand that. We're in it, and we seek safety in battle. And if you're not seeking safety in battle, you're not gonna be safe. Because, ultimately, this is an ultimate game. That means it's it's warfare that is more than flesh and blood. And you can wipe out the enemy of flesh and blood, but that doesn't stop the warfare, and it doesn't stop the problem. There's something deeper going on here. Yes. And if you if a fella hasn't got eyes to see that, well, that means God hasn't given you eyes to see it. According to the Bible, God is the one that provides sight. Go read is it John chapter eight? Is that it?
That passage where he makes the point of making the blind man see? It's instructive in the extreme. Read the details of it. Just read it closely and and slowly and understand what happened there. Well, that's the picture of a man coming to realization of reality. That blind man is born blind. And then Jesus Christ gave him his sight. And you can see in all of that narrative, the recorded testimony there of what happened, that the blind man didn't have a clue what happened to him. And, of course, the Pharisees were pressing him for his testimony about what happened, and he told them famously a quote. He said, look. I don't know.
All I know is once I was blind, and now I see. I can testify to that as a fact witness, but other than that, I don't know how he did it. And, then he asked him he also asked him, would you, Pharisees, be his disciples too? Boy, that ticked them off. And then, of course, they accused him of being the rabble that didn't know anything. And, it was wrong for him to try to teach them because they were the men endowed with wisdom. Well, they were the men that had the PhDs and the the punky doctors and the dinky doctors and the punky professor class, but they didn't know their butts from a $17 sunbonnet for all their learning. As the Bible says, ever learning, but never able. Never able. That Greek word in the New Testament means unable.
It's the word dunamis from which Alfred Noble from which Alfred Noble got his name for dynamite. Dynamite means, able. It means potential, but potential power. But, to negate it means no potential power. Absolutely unable. That's what they were, and anyone whose eyes aren't opened, I don't care how much education they got or how smart they look or act, how much logic they can show off with. They are wholly unable. I had a fellow email me. I think he might have been listening to this show. I don't know. He listened to something I'd done on the public platform, and he said, I'll debate you anytime. Just name the time and the place. I'm Jewish, and you're talking about stuff about Judaism, and you don't know what you're talk on and on he went.
And I just thought to myself, well, I know what I know about Judaism, I get out of the Bible. And the the Bible, the New Testament, even more so, is a treatise. Every book is a treatise against the only brand of Babylonian religion those men knew, which was Judaism. They really knew it. They were Jews. Oh, no. They had been. They were Israelites. Most of them. Not all of them. Luke wasn't, but the rest of them were. And so everything they said was against everything, friends. The more I look at it, the more I see it, was against and in reference to something they had learned in Babylonian Judaism because it was false religion.
Well, this fella wanted to bait me anytime and any place, and I used to respond to people like that and say, look. Debates are for high school students, politicians, and other mental deficient. And I believe that having tried it all. I've been in high school, and I've been in politics, and that's what debates are worth. Nothing. Nothing but waste well, waste your time. You wanna do that? You do that. I mean, even the debates you have on TV, nobody debates don't solve anything. Debates just, give each side another chance to have their man tell off the other side, and people love it when somebody tells somebody off or gets them in a gotcha or something like that. But it doesn't debates that have been shown don't gain you any votes.
Never. I used to get into stuff like that. Of course, people would come to the debate, and the other side would challenge you. And if you didn't accept, then they'd run you down the newspaper so you accept, and then they bring in hundreds and hundreds of their followers to scream you down and try to intimidate you and then make it all a big riot on the television or something. That's the way that works. It's just empty stupidity. I did that one. Well, I didn't want it to be a debate. It was, this is a preacher, and we've talked about him. Not that I didn't like the guy, but Ted Weiland, he wanted, agreed to, debate on whether or not the constitution of The United States was an antichrist document, and he maintains it is and has written a big fat hardback book on the subject.
I think he's just off base. It it's not that he's he's all wrong. He just tracks crooked on that one. He'd like a three legged dog running down the road. Running straight a little bit, but tracks crooked. Of course, that can throw you off and make you biased. Biased. That means that will slice your trajectory because you're spinning off like a billiard cue ball. You're slicing in one direction or the other. That's what bias is. Bias is a inbred, inborn, inside inclination that makes you a little off balance and you always go the same direction. You know, bias can be good, Roger. You got the right point of view. Somebody asked me about something, I like to think that I have a biblical bias, and I'll always slice off in the direction of the Bible. But it's not a prejudice. It's not prejudged. It's based upon overwhelming embarrassment of evidentiary riches that I do that.
But if you're biased in the wrong direction, in other words, your conscience is weighted with falsity, you're always gonna you're always gonna swerve in the wrong direction no matter what the question is. But if your conscience is weighted properly with truth, you will swerve in the right direction. You'll always head to what's right and not what's wrong. Well, there isn't there a place in the middle where we can be objective? No. Objectivity is not even a possibility with mankind. That's like thinking neutrality is a possibility. That's not a live option for mortals. I mean, either you're right or you're wrong, and you gotta find your it is your job to find out. That's why Jesus Christ said, you're either for me or again me. Which is it? I mean, you could be again me. If you think you're neutral, you're against me. But make up your blasted mind. How do you do that? Well, you gather the evidence necessary to make an informed decision. But if your eyes aren't open, you'll make the wrong decision.
Get the biblical point of view on that. You'll make the wrong decision if you're blind as a bat. Seeing, they do not see. Hearing, they do not hear. Thinking, they do not think. Why? Because they're basing everything they they think upon, false premise. You know? They can't see the truth. It's not possible. They're looking right at it, staring them in the face. Seeing, they do not see. Their eyes are dim. Their ears are dull, said Jesus Christ. And their mind is not enlightened. They can't think. We were just talking this morning about the abandonment of the brains of so many people, the abandonment of abandonment of the brains. Now what I get in the news is or what I hear about it, there's about a dozen lawsuits that the feds now have again in the state of California.
And, of course, what they want is the trannies to play women's sports. Well, I would say women don't need to be playing sports to start with. I mean, forget that. Why put taxpayer money into that? Then second, second, okay, that we got sports for the girls. So so now the trannies are coming in. Once you cross that line of trying to make the sexes equal and make sure everything's the same, you're gonna get the trannies and the queers and all of them trying to, trying to steal your children. That's what's next. Well, that's what they're doing now. They bring them in. They put them in the high schools. They said, California says, well, the trannies, won this event, so it's right that we allow trannies to play in women's sports. Now anybody anybody can see maybe the fallacy in that, point of view.
So we want men and women to be equal. So we're gonna we're we're gonna let men compete in women's sports because they're good at it, and they can defeat the women. So, we wanna do that. Well, that, of course A date. Brainless. But,
[00:15:36] Unknown:
go ahead, Roger. They beat the hell out of them. There's one case in volleyball where this big, galuth spiked the ball and broke the girl's optical orbit bones.
[00:15:48] Unknown:
Yeah. Somebody ought to have the yeah. This is madness. Don't be a part of it, friends. There's only one option. You think that's crazy? Well, then make sure you've got the bible and mental sod, and your blood is bibbling, and you'll be inoculated, as they say, again, here in the Wabash Valley, you'll be inoculated from being stupid. There is no other option. You know, as I get older, Roger, I can understand that the the old guys used to be kinda cynical about things. They get fed up. I get it. Yeah. Right now, I'm suffering. I'm not suffering. Actually, I'm enjoying it. People would think I'm suffering looking at me, but, no, I enjoy it. My father gets that way. He's he'll be 99 this summer. And all of his life, I remember mom getting upset as she as he got over 50 thinking he was driving his blood pressure up.
He'd get into an argument or a fight and be acting cynical like an old bear and all that. And, mom would get worried, and she'd take his blood pressure when he'd get into a heated battle thinking he was in danger. She'd take his blood pressure, and it was more perfect then than it was when he just sat in there relaxing, eating his supper. Uh-huh. It it's good for men to be that way sometimes. I don't know what your situation is, but men are made to to fight and to do it according to God's rules, by the way. We are in battle. That's what we're made to do. And if you're not doing it, you're probably damaging your health.
[00:17:18] Unknown:
That's the way it works. I find I find as I get older, excuse me, I have a tendency to pick my battles better. Oh, a good point, Roger.
[00:17:28] Unknown:
Not every hill is worth dying on, but there are those hills, those questions, those points, those issues that control all other issues. Those are the ones that are worth dying on. And this whole thing about the difference between men and women controls everything. That's worth dying on. That's why the Bible starts with that question, and it continues it throughout the Bible. That's fundamental. And if if your eyes aren't open, you can't see it. There's a difference here, and we are to observe it. God's order brings blessing. God's order brings wealth, prosperity.
God's order brings joy and peace of mind. What is the fundamental of God's order among mankind? I'll tell you what it is according to his book. Is the difference recognizing and exploiting recognizing and exploiting the differences between men and women? That means exploit both of them. Exploit yourself, man. You're good at certain things. And the the gals, they're good at certain things. And exploit that and to have God's order makes for peace of mind, enjoyment, life more abundant. So it is fundamental. I'm just making the point. Isn't it of great note? That's that that is where the evil empire strikes the hardest. You think the devil is stupid? No. He knows. That's the controlling question. That's why all this the sodomite, lesbian, tranny stuff is front and center. And that's where they're putting their effort and driving hard. And it's confusion friends.
It's it's the confusion of the chaos of the evil empires of this whole world. That's what it is to, mess in that area and get sucked in by it. I was talking, and I've been a lot in Northern California in the past past few years. You know, California, I've always loved the place. It's God's land, like all land. I've I've been I've lived there off and on between twenty and thirty years. I don't know. Southern California, Northern California, Central California. I've been all over, traveled all over, lived all over, worked all over. I like California. I'm a beautiful state, of course. You go to the beach one day and go skiing the next. It's that kind of a place.
The the scenery is beautiful. The innovation is beautiful. And so it's filled with natural resources, oil, gas, timber, gold, and silver, and copper, not to mention other minerals. Borax, you've heard of 20 mule. Oh, yeah. That place is still there too. Oh, and borax is good stuff by the way, for a lot of reason, but they've just got it all there. And then it's something. Even in Northern California now, the devil's having a heyday there. The useful idiots of the evil are empire sucked in. Even in Northern California, they're electing, lesbians to their, the office of sheriff. And if you mention anything, even to the what's called the fundamentalist Christians there, they'll jump all over you if you mention it. Mhmm. I know. I've been there. They're sucked in, you see. Yeah. That destroys their effectiveness, and it will bring curse.
It'll bring it first. Don't do it, friends. And the only way to maintain sanity there is no other way, by the way. You think you're not insane? You might be double check your premises, friends. But a lot of people in this world that are insane, and nobody knows it, and they don't even know it. They hide it really well. They don't they just haven't figured it out yet. What is insanity? Well, that's easy. It's just having your eyes and your ears plugged and and, and your mind, darkened, because the spirit of God has abandoned your brains. And he says he'll do that. He promises he'll do it under certain circumstances.
Go read about it.
[00:21:12] Unknown:
Well, Roger, that's what's on my mind. Well, what came to my mind there was the old, and I'm only gonna quote part of it. Those who cry appease, appease are hung by those they try to please.
[00:21:24] Unknown:
Good point, Roger. Much good. I'm glad. I had forgotten that quote. I used to use it often. You know, it gets buried in your brain. They don't Yeah. Pull it out. Yeah.
[00:21:34] Unknown:
Was it say that again? I thought there was a I can't remember that there's a the bad thing happens when freedom fails. So there's something in empty jails, and those who cry, peas are pees
[00:21:47] Unknown:
are hung by those they tried to please. Okay. I got it, Roger. Yep. All is lost when freedom fails. Yes. Decent men rot in filthy jails. And them that cry, appease, appease, will be hung by the scum they intended to please. Yep. No. No. That's you've seen and you've read about it in the news, and you may be next. Better than you. I think that was written by one of the Tuskegee
[00:22:17] Unknown:
Airmen.
[00:22:19] Unknown:
Well in retail I don't know. Oh, whoever said it, I'll say it's a quote. I Whew.
[00:22:26] Unknown:
Yeah. Yeah. Very very accurate. Larry was trying to get in there. Morning, Larry. What you got?
[00:22:32] Unknown:
Yeah. Good morning. Question for Brent. He started off the show talking about the blind man in John chapter nine, I believe. And, this has always been a question on my mind. It starts out saying, and as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth, and his disciples asked him saying, master, who did sin this man or his parents that he was born blind? I was just wondering, that's very odd question for them to ask because obviously the man wasn't even born yet And so they're asking, was the did the man sin that he was born blind? And I was wondering if, Brent ever pondered that question. Like, what going on here? Why would they ask that question?
[00:23:18] Unknown:
I've pondered that sent that one since I was a boy in Sunday school before the flood of Noah or whenever that was. And, yeah, that's and I'm thank you for you quoted the Bible. It's just something refreshing about hearing the very words of God as he wants them recorded. And I appreciate you doing that. I'm gonna try to scroll it up here and just read it. Let's read it, friends. John chapter nine, and you clarified it's not chapter eight. That's good, of course. The, the gospel of John, like the other four gospels, is written to a target audience for a specific purpose. Matthew is target audience. It's for everybody, but the target audience is, the Israelites.
And so everything in Matthew is bent towards showing that Jesus is what they have in the forefront of their minds. Jesus Christ is the coming messiah. Mark, the gospel of Mark, the target audience are the Romans whose motto is labor omnia Vincent. That's Latin for labor. Work conquers everything. That was their motto, and boy did they work. And they worked hard, and they were good at it. And their engineers were, were second to nobody in the world and still are. The bridges and roads they built are still being used. The the aqueducts are still being used. The aqueducts too. You can't beat that, friends. Boy, what they did a lot with what they had. Well, their their motto was labor conquers all things, and, that was Mark's target audience. So in the book of Mark, Jesus Christ never stops to take a break. He presents Jesus Christ as the unflagging workman who works harder than anybody in the world because that's what they were looking for, see. Well, that's what he was.
And so the word, the Greek word, is used by my count forty, forty, 40 two times, 42 times in that short gospel. And that word means immediately. King James straight away. Next thing that happened immediately was this, and boy Jesus Christ is good. He's just doing one thing after another in high speed all through that book. Mark, the narrative of Mark's enjoyable to read if you like to keep moving because there's no boredom. That's for sure. It never stops. To show the Romans that Jesus Christ is the is the man they're looking for, that they admire most. And then Luke.
Oh, Luke. Doctor Luke, Greek physician. He his target audience were the Hellenized world, the Greeks. Oh, what what were they looking for? Well, just go back and look at their statuary. Read the writings of the Greeks. What do you got? You've got they had an idea in their head of what a perfect man ought to look like. Everything is proportional according to, by the way, the, proportions of the golden rectangle as they call it and to break it down into the different elements of geometry. Everything in their statuary conforms to that. Everything in their architecture conforms to that. Every beauty, the beauty of the man and the perfectness of the mind of man. Even the word for law in Greek, namos, is from the same root as a human mind.
Nous, law to the Greek comes from the mind of man. See, that explains too the law of the city, the civil law law world, the code of Justinian. That says a lot. For what they call perfected reason is the code of Justinian governs every country in the world. The Roman church says that is the logos. That is it's put in there, of course. The pope wanted it because it was to supplant the Bible as the pinnacle of the of the beauty and the elegance of human thought. So, oh, so Luke, he presents Jesus Christ as the perfect man, perfect of body, perfect of mind, perfect of soul, perfect of logic, read, perfect in his care and love of his fellow man. You know, the the Samaritan that comes out of Luke. You go read Luke and you'll see, I believe, but you will. If your eyes are open, you'll see what I'm saying. And I didn't this has been said for centuries. I didn't come up with this. But then you go to John.
John is the foreman of the 12 man jury that Jesus Christ impaneled to witness the evidence of his identity and to render a verdict. And they all did. None of them chained their verdict. Let them were murdered for their verdict. John was the only one, the foreman. John was the only one of the 12 that wasn't murdered, but he died in slave labor on the Isle Of Patmos. But he wrote he wrote, the gospel of John. He's kinda like I analogize him to the cleanup hitter in baseball. He was a fourth hitter. The bases were loaded and he knocks it out of the park. His his gospel is to all Christian men of all races. Yes. And there are more than one race in the Bible. Don't get caught up in that idea that there's a race only one race of Adam. Well, there are there is only one race of Adam, but that's misused.
Within the race of Adam are many races. And to ignore it, just to ignore the Bible. Don't do that. So John knocks it out of the park. He drives all the other boys into home. The bases were loaded. John gets up. Kawam. He's the last one to write. And the theme of John's gospel is to it's to everybody, and his purpose is to, as foreman of the jury, to announce his absolute verdict absolute verdict after having witnessed personally. That's what a jury is for is to witness the evidence presented and to render a verdict. And he does. And he said, Jesus Christ is God, the maker of heaven and earth and all that in them is. He is sovereign.
He answers to no one. No one calls his hand. He's been delegated. All authority in the skies and on the land, you read John. If you don't come away saying Jesus Christ is the absolute sovereign of creation, Your your eyes are are, are darkened. Your mind is darkened. Your ears are dull. Something's wrong. Well, anyway, you get to the ninth chapter here where he talks about the blind man, and it is the absolute and utter sovereignty of God, not the will of man. The utter sovereignty of God that he bespeaks here. And this narrative, ingenious, this is God speaking, what God wanted poured through the personality and the limited vocabulary of this uneducated fisherman by the name of John. You know, that's what juries are. You just grab 12 men standing around. You don't ask them how many PhDs they got. If you if we did, the jury wouldn't work.
So that's what Jesus Christ did. Chesterton makes that point. Let's read this. Thank you for bringing it up, but I'll I'm gonna read it from the winterized translation of the Bible. A common lawyer translates toward a raw translation of the Bible. Here it is. And leading alongside, he beheld a man blind out of birth. Jesus Christ, he. Context tells us what the antecedent of the of the pronoun he is. He beheld a man blind out of birth, and his jurors and paneled, jurors and paneled, that's the 12 that were with him. Ask him straight out, claiming proof. Learned teacher, rabbi. That's a, that's a Hebrew word. Why, why just put, why, why re pronounce the Hebrew word when you can put what it means? Well, it means learned teacher.
Who wittingly overstepped God's law. Now that's important distinction in the Bible. There are sins that are mistaken sins and sins that are knowing sins. You know what you're doing. And they said this could not have happened unless somebody intentionally broke the law because that's worse, you see. Intentionally breaking God's law is worse than doing it inadvertently when you don't know what you're doing. Oh, yeah. A lot worse. So they had these people figured that they had broken God's law intentionally, his mother or the boy who did this or his parents so that he should be begotten blind. And you make an excellent point.
Larry, won't it? Larry said, wait a minute. How could this guy, willingly because he sinned when he wasn't even born yet? How could they accuse him of that? Well, two things. Number one, the Bible, is inerrant in its testimony. It is testimony. It is evidence. Everything the Bible says was said and done was said and done just the way the Bible says it was said and done. Now, of course, that doesn't mean that everything the Bible says was said and done ought to have been said or done or makes any sense. Now isn't that true? I've heard people get on the witness stand. Recently, I did that. Listen. And, people say things that are crazier and you make them make you think they were crazier in a bed bug. And if you haven't seen a bed bug, you don't know what I'm saying. But you go to the Internet, may I've never done this. I bet you could type in bed bug on YouTube, and you could find all sorts of videos of bed bugs.
Bed bugs look like they're insane. A bed bug you know, for example, I used to sit in church when I was a kid, and, of course, boys sitting in church, they get tired of listening to what the grown ups are talking about, so they get to thinking about what they can do. So we used to pull our pocket knives out, and and we got bored with that. And then we'd examine each other's pocket knives, and then we'd us boys sat there, and then we'd ask each other, you got any ticks on you? I remember doing this once. Oh my goodness. We had ticks on us all the time. So we'd be feeling this is before, what was that? Deer ticks or that terrible disease people Lime. Lime. Yeah. Lime. We'd be feeling around our hairs and up in our heads, and pretty soon, oh, hey. There's a tick, you know, in Kent or me or Delbert or when I was pulling out, and then we start playing with the tick. We'd put him down on the pew between us, and we'd torment him for a while, and then we'd put him on our hands. I'm gonna tell you what I discovered and all of us discovered about ticks, Sunday night church one time.
We discovered that tick, a tick, will always walk uphill. Always. You can put a tick on your hand level and it won't know what to do. But if you slight slant your hand one way or the other, if the tick's on the back of your hand, he'll turn and start going uphill. Uh-huh. You plant your hand the other way, he'll turn. He'll go uphill the other way. Well, that's something I learned by trial and error, in church, studying the biology and the behavior of ticks. Well, why is that? Well, a tick is looking for the soft spot where the capillaries are close to the surface. Yep. Where he can hide, and God has so made him. I don't think he thinks about it. God so made him so he climbs uphill, and he'll get up to your head, see, and get in your hair. He can hide in there. Plus, if you've never been bumped on the head, you well, if you have been, you realize you bleed pretty easy from your head.
And the tick no. He doesn't know that. He just instinct, he gets up there. But that was a fascinating story, and I was gonna I don't tell stories just to tell stories. I want you to know that. Most of the time, they stop behind your knees. Behind your yeah. Sometimes. Or behind your ear. I've had that happen. Yep. Yep. Yeah. They'll they don't always get, up on but they'll go uphill if they can. I was gonna make a point about, use that for an illustration of something, but I got so into the story and trying to remember what happened in church that I forgot what I was gonna illustrate. But whatever you can do with the information at this point, I hope you can use it. But ticks let me read. Learn teacher who willingly overstepped God's law.
You knew what you're doing. That's apostasy, by the way. This manner his parents did which one sinned that he should be begotten blind. Okay. Everything the Bible says was said and done was said and done just the way it was said and done. And oh, bed bugs. I was talking about bed bugs and people people that give testimony are crazier in bed bugs sometimes. But what I mean to say is even if they wanna say the truth, they're such hair brains or rattle brains or they're nervous because they're in court on the witness stand, which can be scary, and they just talk like, crazy as bed bug. A bed bug if you see a bed bug, he goes every direction at once. He's not like a tick. A tick knows where he's going. A bed bug goes anywhere all the time. Just from what he'll go one way a while, then he'll turn move back the other way, then he'll go this way, and he'll so people say crazier than a bed bug. Well, that's the way some people talk. Is it possible?
Is it possible that these jurors impaneled, said things are just stupid? And the answer is yes. You don't believe it. Read what Peter said in the Bible. You talk about just shooting off the mouth before he thought he did saying something that's senseless. Well, that's one strong possibility here. Another possibility is they were thinking well, God knows everything. There never was a time he did not know all that could be known. And so God, knew what this blind man was gonna do when he was able to sin, so he just punished him beforehand. There's a lot of explanation. But when you're talking about testimony, and that's what the Bible is, and I think people forget that.
They forget that this book is testimony. There are only two divisions in the Bible according to prophet Isaiah, law and testimony. There's only two things going on in a courtroom, law and testimony. That's it. Evidence. Testimony is a fancy word in Latin that means evidence, which is a Sanskrit word, by the way, one of those ancient words on our English tongue. And then we have, the English word witness, which means evidence. We don't say it. To talk about a witness now, we're talking about somebody that gives oral testimony, but watch me on this. The only evidence the only evidence that's available to mankind is oral.
Oral. Because if you have any other kind of evidence, it's still not evidence until somebody gets on the witness stand, is under oath, and has knowledge, personal knowledge to testify about what that hard evidence is laying on the table in front of the jury. And that's true in all of life, friends. The only evidence is oral. There isn't any other. And our common law recognizes that in spades the rest of the the rest of the world doesn't. But the common law of evidence is the law of evidence of the Bible. It's oral. And what we have here at John is the recorded oral testimony of John. Just like if you go, yesterday, we ordered we ordered, the record of the testimony. You know, and at common law, we record everything that happened in the courtroom, and that becomes evidence as well. You see, it's the recorded testimony.
Well, that's what you've got here in the Bible. So when you read something in the Bible like what John said, well, he's recording exactly what was said and done, but he's not vouching for the truth of it always. That matter of fact, most times, there's no vouching at all. The man that wrote more of the new testament than any other writer was Luke. He didn't write more books than every other writer, but he wrote more pages and he doesn't tell us what is true and what is false anywhere. He offers no opinions, no conclusions.
It's pure evidence. All of the book of, all the book of acts and all of the book of Luke are pure evidence. Read them. Have fun reading them. I have fun reading Luke because I know he's not it's just like they used to say it. Fox News, we give you the facts and you decide. Well, that's what the Bible is. Of course, they didn't do a good job of that. They're just mortals. This book is inerrant. It gives you the record of of exactly what the testimony was, and that's what he's doing here. So if they say something that's senseless, just keep in mind you're reading testimony like a transcript to what goes on, in a trial.
Over wittingly overstepping God's law. Bottom line, they think that if there's pun if there's hardship among mankind, it is because some there'd be somebody's being punished. Somebody's being punished, but don't miss this. They have this they yeah. They distinguished between, breaking God's law mistakenly and breaking God's law knowingly. That's clear here, the words that are used. Most of the times in the English Bible, that distinction is not made. I wish it were, but I make the distinction here. But the reason it's not made in most translations is because in order to make the distinction between, breaking God's law, sin that is intentional and sin that is unintentional.
To do that, you've got to use more than one word to translate the words. I do that. I have here wittingly overstepped God's law. Well, that's four words, and they're long words. It makes it cumbersome. But I want to know which word is used, and that's why I do it. Well, who did this? This man or his parents? Somebody here is being punished. Is that true in life? The answer is no. Once a man is born above, he'll never be punished for his sins ever again. He'll never be punished for anything he did do, anything he's doing, or anything he will do. Because the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for his people is of a man who is God in human flesh.
His being, his being, his person is infinite. Infinite of worth, infinite of everything, knowledge, infinite of, of life. And so the sacrifice of Jesus Christ is enough for everything and everybody. And never forget all of your law breaking and sins before or after he gave up his life willingly for murder. Oh, they were all future. All of your law breaking was future. He covers it all and the Bible says that point blank. I'm just describing how I I see it could work, but it does work. But, yeah, it records what is said here. I don't know that we can make sense of it. People say, well, that makes a contradiction. That's a senseless statement. Therefore, the Bible is not true. That's just that's just brainless, silly talk.
No. No. No. Everything the Bible says was said and done just the way the Bible says. It was said and done. I can show you plenty of things, and you could tell me too if you stop to consider. The Bible says was said and done that ought to have been said and or done because they were wrong. Without end, the Bible is a record of men saying and doing things that were wrong. Well, that could have been here. Matter of fact, that makes sense. But let me go to verse three, Safener he happens. That's Jesus Christ. That's what the word Jesus means. It means safe and earth. It's a Hebrew word. Some people say savior, but I like safe and earth. He makes safe. And then Iesous, that's the Hebrew word Yeshua.
And on the end is the contraction for the holy name of God, he happens, Yahoah. Yahoah means he happens. Jesus, the word Jesus means safeener he happens. And he was answered, neither. And he said this, Jesus Christ said this, neither was this man nor his parents wittingly overstepped. Neither this man or his parents wittingly overstepped God's law. Neither one wittingly overstepped God's law. Oh, okay. Now we've got Jesus Christ speaking here. He never said anything that was untrue. He never broke God's law. When Jesus Christ speaks, we know it's true. He is God reduced to the span of a man.
He has entered the stream of our, of the race of Adam. He wittingly and he said, no, no, that's not what happened. That's not why this happened. This man was born blind. But rather he says, why? So that the law giver, that's what theos, God means law giver, final arbiter of right and wrong in individual instances from his decision there is no appeal. So that the law giver's wrought works might be highlighted in him. So that the law givers wrought works would be highlighted in him. In who? In the man that was born blind. He told them up front before anything happened.
God will here's essentially what it is saying. God will glorify himself. God this man was born blind. Why? So God will glorify himself. God will appear make himself appear more powerful, more wonderful, more awesome, more to be feared than any other creature. He's gonna do that. Now that's why the Westminster Confession remember, I think I mentioned this, the Westminster Confession. Parliament had won, had prevailed in the terrible war with the crown. 80,000, Brits, Scots, and Englishmen perished in that conflict. But that's a lot in the country of not more than about 5,000,000 people and, didn't have the ability to kill one another. We do today. You know, we have new and better ways to kill each other now with all these fancy weapons.
But they worked at it hard then, hard as they could given the resources they had, but parliament won. And the Puritans, the Puritan party controlled parliament. It was over the law of the land, our common law, and the law of the city, the civil law. The, the governs the code of Justinian, the canon civil laws of Rome governed every country in the world. They had this horrible war, parliament prevailed, and they wrote a letter, a summons, a subpoena to all the men in Scotland and England that they thought could had the wherewithal to understand and translate the Bible into English.
They said, we want you to assemble on this date during this time at Westminster, South of the Thames River there, and we want you to answer hammer out biblical answers to the following questions. And they gave them a list of questions. And they said, well, we'll take care of you while they're there, but we want we we need answers to these questions because we do not want with our legislation to violate the standards of the Bible, what God likes and what he doesn't like. And they said, okay. Well, out of that rose what's called the Westminster confession, which is now the statement of biblical doctrine that was after that of the of the reformed tradition of the Presbyterians in Scotland and the Puritans and Congregationalists and Episcopalians in America and the Anglicans in England, official statement of what the Bible, the calculus of what the Bible teaches when you take all the evidence and put it together. They said this is our conclusion on these questions that you parliament men have given us. Well, out of that also rose what we call the Westminster catechism, a tool used to teach people about the Bible.
I used it with my children. It was very good. You know, I I can't find I've looked pretty hard. And from my understanding of the Bible, for what it's worth, I haven't found anything in that Westminster confession that is blatantly unbiblical. I haven't even found anything that was a little bit unbiblical. Frankly, there has to be something in there that isn't perfect because it's just mere mortals right, and it's not the Bible. But they did a good job. I'll say that. You know, things that come out of the heat of desperation and war, like the Westminster confession, often men write them because they they they they feel the weight, the weight of the ultimate issues of mankind.
The smell of gunpowder, hung in their noses, the reek of it still while they were doing this. Just like when men drafted the the constitution of The United States, the declaration of '76, the reek of gunpowder still hung in their noses. They understood the gravity of what they were saying. Mhmm. Paul the apostle wrote from jail. They were trying to kill him. The Jews were constantly trying to murder him. They'd taken a blood oath not to eat or drink till they murdered Paul the apostle. So when he wrote those epistles from prison, he felt the way to the reality of the ultimate concerns of man. And that's why his his epistles, we still read them today with great interest because God uses that to pour his truth through a personality of a man hardship.
Books that are written and things that are written because men have to write them, not because they want to necessarily. They just feel the press. I've gotta get this written. Those are the books that are really worthwhile, friends, and they're out there. And the writings, that's what we have, and in history. Magna Carta is another one. Stephen Langton, the man that gave us our chapter divisions in our Bible, a great Bible scholar, the greatest scholar of his day of the Bible. When he drafted Magna Carta, he had some help, but he was the chief drafter. It was in desperation, hurry, while the pope of Rome was amassing armies with money taken out of England to invade and conquer the island. That's why they finally did it. Said we gotta do something.
The landowner said that this can't go on like this. We won't have a country anymore. And so Stephen Langton drafted it hurriedly, but isn't it something when we read it now? Have you ever written something that to a friend or something to a family member when you felt the desperation, a wayward son or daughter or, or, or even a politician and you felt the pressure, something's gotta be done. And when you went back and looked at what you wrote, you said, you know, I think I got my point across. Why? Because the spirit, the spirit of the heaviness of the situation came through in your writing.
That's, that's why it drives the words. Well, that's what John is doing here. Of course, we talked about Luke and we talked about this is the words of Jesus Christ. He said neither, neither this man nor his parents sinned, but it is the first question of the Westminster confession. What is the, what is the chief end of man? What is the chief end of man? Answer, To glorify God, result, and to enjoy him forever. To glorify God, not yourself. Not not D. J. Trump. Not the Pope of Rome. Not your mom and dad, not your professor. No, not yourself, I said. No, to glorify God.
And the result? It comes natural. Enjoy him forever. So when Jesus Christ said, well, no, that that's not the reason for what happened here. What's the ultimate reason? What's the ultimate reason for everything that happens? I don't care what it is. It's always the same. God is sovereign according to the gospel of John. He all he his name is he happens, and he causes all to happen to happen for one reason. What you think is good, what you think is bad, your joys, your hardships, everything is to glorify himself and show his unlimited power and his magnificence, his mercy, his vengeance, whatever it is.
But we don't understand. He doesn't always tell us exactly how that works out in every case. But as Paul the Apostle says, he his thoughts are above ours, and his mind is above ours. But Paul makes this point. The things that he has shown us, he has elucidated to us the great mysteries. That's what mystery means, something that was hidden and now we know. The Bible tells us those. And if you know this book, friends, you will know more, as David said. I know more than all my professors, all my teachers. Answer. Why?
Because, he tells us, because I chew thy word like cud. The King James says, because I meditate on thy word. Well, that's not strong enough. It means it's a word the Hebrew word means same word that means to ruminate, to chew cud. You get the word of God and mental sod like a cow gets grass in its belly. You do it hurriedly. You take it in. You don't think about it right then. But then when you're in your quiet time or you're driving in your car or your mind is relaxed, you start chewing it. That's where the the nutrition really comes friends, but you can't chew.
You can't chew on cud that isn't in your system. You gotta put the word of God in your system first. We're trying to do that here. Oh, he said, well, is that that the work should be highlighted in him. God's works for us, verse four, is foregone to rot. It is foregone. That's an important word. What does that mean? That means it's gonna happen. It is predestined, and it's gonna happen for us, not for the rest of of humanity. He didn't say that. Us. Who's he talking to? His jurors impaneled and himself. It is foregone. It's going to happen whether we know it or not, whether we like it or not. What's gonna happen? That's what that Greek word means. It's a predestined word.
It's a word translated in the King James. It behooves, I think. Behoved. Like, when Jesus Christ said to Nicodemus, a member of the high court of last resort of Israel. He said, Nick, you're an educated man. You don't get this? You don't know this? And then it says, you must be born again. Well, that word, is sometimes translated behooved must makes it sound like it's something you do. Well, that's not what the Greek word means. The Greek word there means it is foregone. It's already set in stone. God has already foreordained it. It is predestined. It's gonna happen. To be born again to who? To the ones that god chose before the foundation of the world as the bible says. The ones that god has pulled out, has chosen. Ecllectos, the Greek word, elect, English, a French, elite French. The French word is like the Latin, or the Greek, elite.
There's some from the same family of languages, and we've taken that word into English. We say elect. When you go down, we have a presidential election. What do we do? Well, really what we're doing or the sheriff or who we're choosing. We're indicating our choice, from among others. I don't want this man. I don't want Biden. I want DJ. Well, that you're indicating your choice. That's what the word vote means. Vote's the word from the, Latin word means mean willing. Your your your volition. What you want. What you will. What you want. So you choose out from among others. Well, that's what the Bible says God has done with his people from before the foundation of the world.
So the law giver's wrought works might be highlighted, highlight. It is foregone to us who? Well, I spoke that God has chosen from before the foundation of the world. And this is all in the book of John, the things I'm telling you. I'm being context consistent here if I can. I don't think I am. The all the things that John has said, for us is foregone, wrought the wrought works of the one, the one having sent me off until it is day, night comes when not even one man is able to wrought work. Verse five, while I am in the city law order, translated world, city law order, cosmos, the Greek word. While I am in the city law order, I am the city law order light.
These things having claimed proof of, he spat on the ground, Jesus Christ. He expectorated. He hocked up a langer and spit on the ground and made mud out of the spittle. Verse six. Reading from the winterized version. And he doused his mud. It says his mud. It doesn't say he doused mud. He doesn't say he doused his mud or or it doesn't say he doused the mud. This mud, no, no. It says he doused the mud of him. That's by the orders of the Greeks word, and that's the way they did the possessive. It's his mud. Why does it say his mud?
That's going way back to Genesis chapter one. Who owns all the mud in the world? Who owns all the dirt? Who owns all the land? Who made it all? Yahoah. That's Jesus Christ of the Old Testament. The Bible says he made everything seen and unseen in heaven and on earth, the skies and the land, and the mud belongs to him. And what did he make you out of, my friend? Mud. Like the last it says in the old testament that when god made our grandpa Adam, it says he made him out of adamah. Adamah. That's the Hebrew word. What's adamah? Dirt, silt, mud, clay.
The reddish variety has iron in it. Iron. Clay that is reddish has iron in it. That's why it's reddish. Ferrous material. Clay that is bluish does not. It has other elements, but not iron as much. There's blue clay in the world, and there's red clay. The Bible makes a point of saying it's reddish clay. That's true. But he said that's Adamah. He said, god made man out of Adamah and called his name Adam. Adam. Same word. Really, what it says, to put it in simple English, he he made man out of dirt and called him mud or he made man of clay and or he made man out of red clay, silt or mud and called him dirt. It's almost, well, it is, it's a play on words and it's, it's rather humorous. Oh, there's another word.
Humus. Human. What does that mean? It means silt, dirt. I mean, the Latins had the same idea. But all the mud in the world belongs to Jesus Christ. All the silt, all the land, all the dirt, and all the men. And we're made out of mud. We're made out of dirt. We're made out of silt. We're made out of red clay. And we belong to him. But, Roger, you gonna say something?
[00:58:43] Unknown:
No. But Paul was. Oh, go ahead, Paul.
[00:58:46] Unknown:

And it's also that's our common law.
Yes. And understand the basics of that other volume of our common law tradition, the laws of nature's god, also called the Bible. The laws of nature are common law. The laws of nature is god, the Bible. Understand the fundamentals. No. No. No. We don't want you to be a theologian. Oh, no. That that doesn't help. We want you just to understand the fundamentals of the Bible. That's what I want to understand. I've been working at it. We we want to get that across to others. That's what we're trying to do here.

That finally happened.
Commonlawyer.com. Thank you, Roger and Paul.
[01:02:40] Unknown:
Yeah. Hey, Brent. Question. You have a trust course on commonlawyer.com too, don't you?
[01:02:48] Unknown:
Yes. I have two or three of them, I think. Two or three of them. One of them. Yeah.
[01:02:53] Unknown:
Just wanna say one. I'd really like to get a look at one or two of those because I've got a couple of family members that have classic cars. And, those those things, I believe, should be protected by putting them in trust.
[01:03:10] Unknown:
But, I I get your point. Ask you. And the courses are not about just well, they're about trust in general, all trust in our common law tradition. They don't exist in our common law tradition. All of them are in general the same, but then you can direct them in a certain direction. The asset protection trust is what we focus on. And you firearms are a good thing to put in an asset protection trust. Oh, boy. I'll bet. The the guerre mode, which they're trying to do in some states, trying to use the inheritance laws to confiscate firearms. But if they're entrusted, that makes it a lot harder.
And, you can put your fire you can put anything in an asset protection trust, but the trust is the way God has organized. That's a common law doctrine. The way God in the Bible has organized his relationship with his people. And to understand that, and we have we offer at commonlaw. If you want if you want, a trust template, just a trust template, We're gonna try to get that up on commonlawyer.com so you can get the trust template of an asset protection trust. If you have questions about it, then there are other ways you could talk to us. But one thing you can do is take the courses. There's a course on the common law asset protect and protection trust about twelve weeks long, another twelve week course of 12 presentations, on how to draft a common law asset protection trust. And then there is also I've got another course on the Common Law Asset Protection Trust. I don't remember all of it. I trust law to me, of course, is a a monolith of consistent information no matter what kind of trust you have. It's they're always the same fundamentally, but then you use them and draft them in different ways.
But, if you're interested in that and you wanna talk or whatever you need, I wanna get the templates up so people can have them along with an explanation, a booklet. And I've about got that done. I'm working on so many things. Yeah. I I'm frustrated. Hey, Brent? You. Very busy guy. What's that? Somebody said Larry.
[01:05:13] Unknown:
Larry's Yeah.
[01:05:15] Unknown:
How much do these courses cost on this trust? Like, you said there's one twelve weeks long?
[01:05:21] Unknown:
How much does that cost? Close to the target. Well, the it's a donation. We the course and the books are provided in appreciation of a donation. And if you go, it'll tell you on the website what that is. And if you have any prayer any problem, email Joy. That's the name of the gal, and and we hope she can help you as iron it out. But we of course, we want you to we wanna get the word out. To understand the common law trust listen to me, friends. To understand the common law trust, the fundamentals of it, is to understand your relationship with your maker. And it is amazing to me that we've gone now in America for a hundred and fifty years and largely ignored what those who our first fathers founded the country understood about that and what they did. They called it the covenant.
The covenant. The Scotch Irish Presbyterians, the English Puritans, Congregationalists, Anglicans, Episcopalians, and then the Dutch and reform Dutch and reform, the Germanic the Germanic and Dutch people in Pennsylvania primarily, they had the same fundamental point of view. And it all came down to get what they call the covenant of God. Well, what was the covenant? Well, it's a trust settlement. And, to understand, that's why I want to offer it. If you can make your relationship with God personal to you about your property, then you understand what God is doing so much better. It doesn't mean you can't be a Christian. It just robs you of the enjoy and my studied opinion for what it's worth. It robs you of the enjoyment of life to not know that. You may be have fire insurance and know you're not gonna go to hell. Yeah. That's salvation.
But Jesus Christ put it this way. I have come that man, that my people may have life. That's that eternal life. That means you're not separated from God and hell. You may have life. That's number one. And that is the life, death, burial of Jesus Christ paid that penalty so that you may not be punished for your sins. But number two, it is his resurrection and life that makes life more abundant for us and continues that process, and that means enjoyment of this new birth, this new life. And to not understand how God has as a matter of law, yes, it's all a matter of law, How he set this up is to be robbed. John says, this man we're reading right here, first John, I write these things to you that you your joy may be.
Well, what do you mean? Why would he say that? Because they were not joyful folk. They were not experiencing the satisfaction of the Christian life. And he wrote to them that they would experience it. That's what the whole new testament is really about. It's men writing not to tell them what the law is. They got that. We got that from the Old Testament clear as crystal. They do repeat some of it, but the whole idea is that we know how to appropriate it so we can have abundant life now, right now. The eternal life is not something in the future, friends. The Bible is clear on that. If it's eternal, it's right now. It's at all times. And it begins now.
So the trust settlement is what enables to just understand the fundamentals of it. It's not complicated, but it is elusive. Like Christian it's elusive. Why? Because your brain has been fogged for years. And even in the new birth, the constant battle is to keep your brain defogged. I could tell you from experience, I just I see things in the bible constantly. I've heard about all my life. I said, wait a minute. Why didn't I see this before? Why? Yeah. Because god is in the process constantly of defogging. Yeah. I went to and I'm getting a personal
[01:09:06] Unknown:
You weren't.
[01:09:07] Unknown:
Because you weren't ready yet, Brent. There's a is that Thora?
[01:09:11] Unknown:
Thora was you? Thora. Yes. Yeah. Hey. I I didn't wanna, interrupt. So, Brent, if you're not done, I can wait.
[01:09:21] Unknown:
Thora is so sweet. No. Thank you for is lived in a peaceable place, and she's she's keeping her brain defogged, I think. But go ahead, Thora.
[01:09:31] Unknown:
Yeah. Well, I just wanted to, say to Paul and anyone else, listening that I have taken Brent's trust classes. They're wonderful. I still refer to them. And Brent has been so gracious with his time with me and Ed, as we, get our trust document together. So I just wanted to say that, I appreciate so much that information, and the courses are so good. So I just wanted to share that.
[01:10:05] Unknown:
Thank you, Thora. Give that our best.
[01:10:08] Unknown:
Yeah. And I I will.
[01:10:10] Unknown:
Thora, You could say it if you want. I didn't pay you to say that, and we hadn't talked about it. But that's nice.
[01:10:19] Unknown:
Appreciate it.
[01:10:20] Unknown:
Alright. Any Brent? It's
[01:10:22] Unknown:
my passion in life to get this trust settlement is key, but go ahead. Somebody's gonna say. Yeah. There's somebody coming in. I had something to say. Go ahead. Whoever said Oh, wait, Roger. Wait. Roger. Roger. No.
[01:10:33] Unknown:
No. No. No. No. Wait. Wait. I wanna hear what Roger's gonna say first. Well, I was just gonna say, I think, what Larry's gonna say. Larry, go ahead. You something came up this week. I was talking about you and how you're so good at simplifying things to an either or and the law of the land and the law of the city and that the law of the land is due is process oriented and the law of the city is or outcome oriented. And Larry asked me to give some examples of the process. So, I thought about it. I said, I want you to ask for him on Friday, and I thought about it. One of the things, of course, is the jury. And then that brought up another question that, you had said the jury we've the only country in the world with the jury, and yet the the other Commonwealth countries, in other words, does England have juries still?
[01:11:23] Unknown:
Yes. England has retained her jury for criminal cases, but not for noncriminal cases. Oh, for criminal only. Okay. And they've done away with the grand jury in England back in the nineteen thirties.
[01:11:35] Unknown:
Okay.
[01:11:36] Unknown:
So that's why we say here in America and rightly say we're more we're more we're more English than the English at this point because it is law that dictates culture most fundamentally. Yeah. Law. And, we are more common law than they are at this point.
[01:11:53] Unknown:
Now, who's, what about the differences between the process with the common law and the, non and the the outcome oriented
[01:12:03] Unknown:
aspect of the law of the city? Well, that and, yeah, that's again, these are good questions. And that's what we're gonna try to teach in this course compared to past the law of the land and the law of the city, the common law versus the civil law, the law of Babylon versus the law of God, and the law of God is our common law tradition. Our common law is a Christian tradition. Well, just to briefly briefly say, is there a process in the law of the city? Oh, yeah. But that process is aimed at one thing Mhmm. To achieve the command of the state.
That's all that matters. When they they don't have courts, they have tribunals. They don't have trials. They don't have trials. Just get together with the legal beagles, and they decide what can we do here to make sure that the statute is fulfilled. That's all that matters. That's the overarching policy of the law of the city. I have people tell me, you don't know nothing. I know nothing about the civil canon laws. You're talking out your hat. Oh, we got process, and Roman Catholics often say that, but other people too. Well, of course, you got all sorts of process, but it the overarching principle that is unwritten, by the way, and it's the it's stronger than anything written down in the law of the city is we must achieve a certain outcome. The law of the land, we we're we're so habituated to it. We don't even think about it. Lawyers don't even think about it. Lawyers don't even know the difference. They just do it. And they'll say, wait a minute. I've said this. I'll say it again. I've been in court more hours than I could ever catalog and representing people. I've never said anything in court that didn't amount to this. Wait a minute. That ain't fair. Wait a minute.
That my my man hasn't had an opportunity to make an argument. Wait a minute. We need to brief this. Wait a minute. Trial by jury has been demanded, and we're we're ignoring that. Wait a minute. We're not doing we're not doing this the right way, w a y. That's what our common law is. It's called due process, the process that is doing o doing o and all concern. We call it the course of due process. The the, oh, the of 1787, the for the governance of the territories north and West of the Ohio River. The Northwest ordinance. Northwest ordinance, says right up front the according to the course of our common law. The jury, it says. The jury according to the course of our common law. Listen. If the jury isn't according to the course of our common law, it's it may look like a jury. It may feel like a jury, but it's not a jury. Calling it a jury, a 12 man thing in court a jury doesn't make it a jury, my friends. There are a lot of country, and now I'm being told that I've passed statues to establish the jury, but it's not the jury. It just makes people feel good. It's like the the Mexican constitution.
Our constitution is all about process. It's common brief a common law government. It doesn't have any outcomes in it. It doesn't tell you who's gonna be president. It tells you how we elect president the president. That should be our concern. The Bible says that we're to focus on the process and not the result. The Bible says, Deuteronomy, other places, says the the result is God's jurisdiction, not ours. Work to be fair and follow the process. I call it fair play. Our common law calls it fair play. In our common law countries, we have sayings like, he fought me a fair fight. They don't say that in the rest of the world. They don't care. Do the Jesuits care whether it was fair, or what is their motto? Their motto? The ends justifies the means. Yeah. The ends justifies the means. That's the law of the city. Well, what what happens in such a world? Torture.
If the ends justifies the means, it doesn't make any difference how you achieve the will of the state. If we have to torture people to do it, we'll do it. Torture has no place anywhere in our country.
[01:16:05] Unknown:
And even if their answer is a lie, it's still you still accept it.
[01:16:10] Unknown:
Yeah. That's right. So fundamental and these are the fundamentals we're gonna talk about in that course because I don't wanna talk about all the detail. You know, it's, again, the law to murder people in France and South America, civil law country, just like it's, again, the law to murder people here. Yeah. So the substance of the the the leaves on the trees may look the same. But what is it growing out of? Picture us in our common law tradition. Our common law tradition, we call the law of the land. Why? Because we have always believed and do believe, and the Bible tells us it arises from the land. It comes from the skies.
Thy kingdom come, thy will, that's law, the law of the sovereign, thy will be done on land as it is up in the skies. We believe it comes to the land, and we pray for it. And if we pray for it, by the way, it it God's gonna fulfill that because he tells us to pray that way. We'll get our answer to that prayer. Comes to the land that arises out of the land. It's the law of the land. It's based on the land. The land, by the way, is the entrusted property of that trust settlement God made with his people. All the land of this place we call Earth. But it gets more that's the fundamental. And the due process is called the law of the land. Our common law is not a substantive law. No. It's just about how.
Fair play. Substantial justice. It's not about precision. It's about treating the other fellow right the right way. You see, we say in our country, fairness is not equality. When you are when you hear people start talking about equality, you're that's the law of the city kinda stuff. Justice, equal work for equal pay, men and women are equal, all religions are equal, all traditions of law are equal, and on and on and on. Well, you say doesn't it say that in our declaration of '76 that all men are created equal? Well, I want you to notice very well and be very honest about it. Be real. Be tough. It doesn't say there that women are equal with men. Well, that was furthest thing from their mind. They they just rendered no opinion at all about women. Why? Well, that what they weren't part of the mix there. It says all men are created equal, and that's what it means. That's what they meant when they said it. Put it that way. Well, are men created equal? Yes. Are all men equal? Well, obviously not.
They're from different ancestors. We call that different races. They're different sizes, different shapes, different propensities, different customs, different habits, different nationalities. Men are not not equal. Are they created equal in God's eyes? And before no. No. Are they created equal in man's eyes? And the answer is yes. We are to look at all men, honor all men, respect all men, the Bible says to. That's easy. Is that biblical? Of course, it's biblical. But equality is not fairness. Fair. We wanna be fair, always be fair to women and men. We are not to mistreat any of them. That's our common law tradition. We make that distinction. All things aren't equal.
The hallmark of the law of the city is everything is precise. Justice must be mathematically precise. That's fantasy, friends. It has never existed. Man doesn't mortals, mere mortals don't even have that capability. I I think I've told you. Maybe it was last week. The case I went into is about $500,000 case about a piece of farm machinery. Great illustration. We tried to keep all the bankers, all the school teachers, all the people that were educated off the jury, which is a smart thing to do. We're not looking for educated people. We're looking for people that are used that that can feel what all the educated people can't feel. That's what we're looking for. We're looking for people that can't analyze their logic and don't even want to. They just wanna do what's fair. They can sense unfairness when they see it. Don't tell me they can't.
And that's what we add in our common law tradition with the 12 man jury that that the rest of the world doesn't have. They depend upon the experts to make all those decisions. We don't do that here. Our most important decision is to die decide who lives and dies in a murder trial. We leave that up to 12 men we just grab standing around, and we want them to be men. We don't want them to be professors, lawyers. Yeah. I did say this last time. Why would a patriot community suffer from the hucksters on this point? Why would anybody wanna think like a lawyer, be like a lawyer? That's what the the patriots are shot through with that.
Don't. If everybody was like you don't like them anyway, why would you wanna be like them? They're ruined for all practical purposes. They're like spare tires, I like to say. Lawyers are like spare tires. They're in the way till you need them. They're nothing but a pain in the neck, but there is that time when you need a lawyer. Yes. You do. And then in a murder trial, you need a lawyer who's sincere. Hope you can find one. And a prison trial. Oh, yeah. They're and doctors, same way. Do you need them for much? Not much. You know, they're they're trained to get out the knives, start slicing people up, and cut things out. There is a time when that is worthwhile to have. But the experts, I don't care who they are, the librarian, the lawyer, professor, they're in the way and a pain in the neck until you need them, but you might need them. Same thing with preachers, by the way, in my humble opinion, but we're getting back getting too far afield here. I'm glad somebody brought up the question. But, yeah, you can take that course. But, listen to me talk about it. All the things there, we we cover it a little more, with little more, backup, a little more evidence, a little more authority than I'm doing here. You're just listening to Brent here. I try to Mhmm.
Authority. But, and you can see more precisely what the common law trust is. And you help us. And by the way, I like to say this. You help miss Francine.
[01:22:04] Unknown:
Keep us going. There you go. Hang around with me. But go ahead, Roger. Well, I was just gonna say, plus you get sheriff Darleaf's perspective on that. So it's not only you get Brent's biblical and legal opinion, but you get the sheriff's
[01:22:17] Unknown:
but boots on the ground perspective too. Thank you, Roger. I don't wanna forget sheriff Darliff. He's been invaluable to me. He'd been sheriff for over twenty years, and I continue to be amazed at how much of all of law, what he does touches. Because he's not just a police officer. See, a police officer, that's part of the law of the city. And police is from the Greek word in the New Testament, polis, which means city. A policeman is part of the law of the city. He's a bureaucrat. That's bureaucratic law. His only job is to enforce the law. He has no other job. Enforce it. Enforce what is it? The will of the government. Mhmm. See? Oh, sheriff and we went we taught a course on the sheriff, by the way, with sheriff Darleaf. I was so thankful to have him there. He was over twenty years studying himself. He's an, incurable student of our common law, sheriff Darleaf.
And so when he his job is not police, not law of the city, but peace. Peace officer. Well, what's peace? Well, our common law understanding of peace is the Bible's understanding. Well, what's that? Jesus Christ said, do not I did not come to bring peace as the cosmos, the world order brings peace. No. But I bring you my peace. Well, what's his peace? Well, that's a translation in the Old Testament of the word shalom and the New Testament, but it's trying to get across the the Hebrew concept of the Old Testament law of peace. Shalom is not the absence of war.
Salaam in Arabic is not the absence of war, cognate word and a cognate tongue. No. That's, shalam, salaam, and shalom is not the absence of conflict. It's the presence of God's order with God's people in the midst of battle. That's what it is. And we're in battle, friends. You're not gonna escape our country. Are we? Yeah. So safety is in battle. The abundant life is in battle. The enjoyment is in battle. And the presence, as David says, of mine enemies who are foaming at the mouth and wanting to chop me to bits, you spread a sumptuous table table table before me in the presence of mine enemies. I'm relaxed. I'm secure. I'm happy, and they wanna kill me. That's life, friends.
Let's let's look at it from the from Jesus Christ point of view. He gives us peace. He gives us order, his order. What's his order? It's the order in your life according to the orders of the god of all order. That's what it is. I mean, the bible says that and Paul says to the credit Corinthians of disorder, chaos, they were in they were in chaos. He said, god is not a god of chaos, but a god of cosmos. There's that word again, order. That word translated world or world order, it just means order. The context is off is sometimes negative, but it's also used in a positive way. God's order will bring peace. Know what you're supposed what he wants you to do.
Now the difference between the law of the land and the law of the city can be summed up in many fundamental ways or not many, but some. And one of them is one is outcome oriented. In other words, mankind is to achieve a certain outcome, and the other one is process oriented. As a lawyer, a common lawyer in a common law country, his job is to make sure his client gets a fair gets fair play and a fair fight. That means notice to start notice and a meaningful opportunity to be heard of the time and the place of the contest. You can't in a common law country, you don't say, okay. I'm suing you, and here's the date of the trial. I'm not gonna tell you. Go into court and then claim default.
Well, that's battle by trial. You're not allowed to do that. You're not allowed to do that in trial by battle either. Challenge challenge a guy to do, not tell him where the time and the place is, and then go and claim default because he didn't show up. That's that's our common law tradition. It doesn't allow that. We allow the proper process from beginning to end. We demand it. We demand it, brother. Well, let me get back to the blind man. If that go to commonlawyer.com, and you can sign up. Thanks. Go ahead. Somebody said so.
[01:26:42] Unknown:
Yes, Larry. Before I do have a question about, a comment and a question about the blind man when we get back to that. But before we do, I just have a question for you. Many students will acknowledge that we still have common law courts, but they have become bastardized. Do you think that may have occurred when the judges began determining the facts and law of the case instead of the jurors?
[01:27:10] Unknown:
Well, to not use the jury as as as much as we should is a denial of due process, which means it's a denial of our common law tradition. That's what our common law is, due process, the process that is due annoying, the how we go about it, the course of process, not focusing on the result. God will get his result if we follow the process. And part of that process is jury trial. Yes. And we in England, they don't even use the jury anymore except in criminal cases. That's a denial of due process. In our federal courts in our federal courts, our constitution controls our federal courts.
We we have the principle there that it says that we're entitled to a trial by jury in a noncriminal case. So we still are in our federal courts and in our state courts. We are too. Yes. That's very important that we keep doing that. And, yes, the, the evil empire will try to slowly, in every way, eat away at their propensity to use the common law jury. There have been times in our history, in the earlier days, when the Supreme Court of the United States received a case, and they impaneled a jury because they wanted a jury to tell them the facts of the case. They thought it wasn't sufficiently done. Now what they do now is they remand it back to the trial court and say, look. You didn't find necessary facts here. We call our trial courts finders of fact because that's the only place fact can be found. And once fact is found by the jury, it's not overturnable, except unless the course of the common law wasn't followed, and our constitution says that too.
But, the jury is the finder of fact. And once fact is found, then the the the result will probably be inevitable. It is in every case I've seen. Just find the facts. That's what we're asking the jury to do and then to deliver the verdict as well. Yes.
[01:29:02] Unknown:
Just the facts, ma'am. Just the facts. Alright. What'd you think about, them appointing, the, judge Janine for the DCAG spot? Did you know that?
[01:29:13] Unknown:
Oh, yeah. I some walked by a television and saw her mug behind the president, and I figured she got appointed to something.
[01:29:20] Unknown:
Got it pointed to Well, it's very interesting on our enemies and sometimes how their actions, come back on them. They their other guy, and I'm gonna say his name's Gary Martin. I don't think that's it, but he's evidently very conservative, very well known. And they were gonna put him in that AG spot in DC, which could go after and convict people like Schiff and some of the other goons. And so they, of course, threw hissy fit about that. So they had to withdraw him, and he replaced him with judge Jeanine, but they gave this other guy an o a new position which covers the whole country. And he can go investigate any of these creeps. So it's so interesting how it worked out and backlash against them.
[01:30:09] Unknown:
Uh-huh. Oh, yeah. I know. He played politics to the hilt to the hilt, and that's that's what gotta be done in that arena. His his, office, the executive branch, is a political branch as is Yeah. The those are the two political branches of the three branches of government. We call those the political branches because they're based on the majority principle Uh-huh. In different ways, but that's the way it is. That's our common law government. But, I can I get I'm asking Roger if somebody else has to say something, but is it possible now that they get back to the John Minor? Or Sure. Yeah. Let's go back to the blind guy where wherever you wanna go back to. So we know that he Jesus Christ said, no. He isn't born blind because he sinned or would sin or any of that. We talked about everything the Bible says was said and done just the way the Bible says it was said and done, but not everything the Bible says was said and done should have been done or said. May have been wrong, but it's recorded it just like to record a false testimony at a trial. Verse four, for us, it is foregone. That means it's predestined for us, not everybody else. He's very precise here. Foregone to rot the works wrought of the one having sent me off until it is day until it is day. Now this is symbolic speech, of course. Night comes when not even one man is gonna be able to work. Okay. Verse five. While I am in the city law order, I am the city law order light.
I'm the light in this world. We call Jesus Christ the light of the world. And in him is no darkness at all, the Bible says. These things having claimed proof of, he spat on the ground. We, yeah, we did that. We said all mud belongs to him. Now verse seven, and he claimed proof to him. Lead under authority. Warsh it into the siloam pool, siloam pool. Warsh it into the siloam pool, which being unpacked, and they they gives the translation, the siloam pool. Now what's the significance of this blind man washing the mud out of his eyes? The mud of Jesus Christ, I might add. Isn't it funny? From the spit, from spittle, from spittle of Jesus Christ.
What's one thing we can take from this? Just shut up and do what you're told. When Jesus Christ speaks, you know that he has spoken. You can see it clearly, and it's not ambiguous. That you can depend on. Go ahead and do it. Just like the fellow up in the old testament, he was the commander in chief of the armies of of that country up there. And, yeah, he was a leper. Very famous, had a great career. He was famous, and he had a lot of money. And and, a little slave girl he captured in battle who happened to be an Israelite walking through his house, knew he had leprosy. He was complaining about it. Of course, that'll destroy your life. He had everything else. He had everything, but he was a leper.
And she was walking through the room and said, well, I know a fellow down in Israel will take care of that. That's all she said. That's giving testimony, see. That's all it takes. I'm I'm talking a lot here. It doesn't take all this talk. Can you give testimony? Can you say something positive about the God you know? Can you point to something in your life that he's provided for you? How about life? How about food? How about shelter? You say, well, he's he never wronged me. That'll impact people, friends. This little slave girl walked to the house said, I know a fella down in Israel can take can take care of that. Well, he was desperate. He packed up his massive entourage of men and horses and equipment and clothes, and he goes down to talk to the prophet of God.
He got there. He told him he sent word to him, to the prophet of God, how important he was, and he was commander in chief of the armies of whatever. And and the prophet of God, sent his servant out and told him what to do. The prophet of God wouldn't even come out and talk to him. That ticked him off. He thought he was important. And you won't even come out and talk to me. Well, why should I? I'm prophet of God. I don't need who who trumps me? You know? He sent his servant out and said, go dip seven times in the Jordan River. Dip seven times. Now why?
Listen, there comes a time, friend, when you just you know, if you know it says it, you just do it. You know, maybe you'll figure it out later. He said dip in the Jordan River. He said that thing's full of mud. We got clean we got clean rivers that flow out of the mountains where I'm from. Why up in the Syria and up in there, why would I wanna come down all the way down here that dip seven times in a a river that's too thin to plow and too thick to drink? There's nothing but mud. Well, that's the word. And so he wanted to take it. He got mad. He wanted to go home, and somebody said to him, now listen. We've come all the way down here.
That why not try it? What would it hurt? Try it. Wouldn't hurt anything. There is no harm and abundance of caution. That's a maximum of our common law. Go ahead and try it. Okay. Begrudgingly friends, he went and do did what God told him to do through the prophet seven times. And he came out the seventh time and said that his skin looked like the skin of a baby healed. Now what's the, what's the point here? The point is you don't need to understand everything and it doesn't need to look what you'd call logical. If it's the command of God, it's a fact.
And the Bible is the command of God where it speaks when God the record is of his testimony of him speaking, and there are places that are unambiguous. And Peter the apostle tells us in the New Testament, this is the great reliable evidence of this book. Well, that's what the man did. Well, that's what he Jesus Christ said to this blind man. He didn't listen friends. He this blind man, and we see this later in the narrative, didn't have a clue who Jesus Christ was. He was just as desperate. He'd like to see too. Never had one try it. Oh, you you'll tell me to go and the silo silo loam pool had a reputation for that kind of stuff. We learned from the other gospels. Records or the gospel records, we learned that.
Reputation for it, it doesn't say why. I don't know all that answer. I just know what the testimony is. Listen. When you're a juror and you're listening to testimony sitting in the jury box, you listen. And the truth or the story is on the mouth of the teller. You just listen, and you evaluate testimony. That's what you're supposed to do with this book, evaluate what it says. Oh, yeah. It's testimony. Look at it that way. This is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ witnesses the gospel records. Therefore, this man was right with Jesus Christ, by the way, John, and he says so. What I he says, what I saw, what I with I what I touched, what I heard, and I actually handle it with my hands of the word of life. Oh, handle what?
He touched the body of Jesus Christ. He heard what he said. He saw him. What does that mean? That means he's a witness. He's qualified firsthand knowledge through his sensory perception of the man Jesus Christ. Verse eight. Therefore, the nine neighbors the nine neighbors and the men having gazed at him at first, and then it says in parenthesis, the man that would be be that before was being a beggar. He was begging. He was a blind man begging for coins. He didn't know who Jesus Christ was. He just said, shucks. Somebody tells him what to do. Couldn't hurt. I'll do what he says. And they were claiming proof. And they said proof. And they said this, is not this the man sitting and begging?
Verse nine. Others claim proof that he is the yeah. That's him. He is this man. Others claim proof and said, oh, not at all, but he's like the man that was sitting and begging. But the man was saying, no. I'm the man that was sitting and begging. So you got three witnesses here. One said, yeah. That's the man that was setting and begging. Another group of witnesses, I don't know whether where they were lying or they didn't know. They said, well, no. He looks like the man that was setting and begging, but he's not. And then the man himself testified and said, no. I'm the man that was there setting and begging. Verse 10.
Therefore, they claim they claim they were claiming proof to him. They said, how, therefore, were your eyes opened? And the man was answered. And he said this, the man, the one being spelled out, Safener he happens, that's what Jesus means, he made mud and doused it upon my eyes, daubed it, probably be a good word there, upon my eyes and claimed proof to me and claimed proof to me and said, lead under authority and wash into the gush forth pool. The gush forth pool. The word siloam means to gush forth. It's a verb and it means to gush forth and really that's what it meant. So having gone therefore and having washed washed his eyes and my eyes and I got sight. I did what this guy said and I got sight and they claim proof to him. Where is that man?
And the man that was blind spells it out. I am not aware from any evidence. That's what that word means. I'm not aware from evidence. And that's different than being aware from having read a book or secondhand knowledge. But he says from evidence, you're asking me to testify. This is what he's saying. This guy wasn't dumb. He said, you're asking me to testify and I'm not a witness. And I can't tell you from firsthand knowledge, sensory perception, sight, ears, anything where he is right now. He understood he was talking to the authorities. That's like talking to a police officer. You don't lie to him and you watch what you say. He had, he understood that lying to a government employee and our common law tradition has always been a felony or misleading them with the truth. Same it gets you the same thing. This guy understood that. He wasn't quick to talk. He's exercising almost like he's exercising his fifth amendment here. I'm not a witness to that, and I ain't saying. I'm not speculating.
Listen, friends. Speculation is not testimony. I just prepared a man for a testimony yesterday. I said, whatever you do, they ask you your opinion. Don't give him your opinion. That's not even allowed at law. Just say, well, I don't know. I didn't I didn't see that. I'm not gonna speculate, and I'm just here to give you the facts. I don't wanna speculate. It's against the law, the common law of evidence to speculate as a witness. Unless you're an expert witness, that's another matter. But just in general, it's about fact, friends, and and firsthand knowledge. Verse 13.
They led him, the man of four time blind under the Phariseites. Moreover, it was being a sunite that less rest day. Sunite. That means a seventh day. Sunite. That's an old English way of saying seven. You've heard of a fortnight. Yeah. Well, that's that's fourteen nights. That's short for fourteen nights. A sunite is short for seven nights. Okay. Half. Yeah. Yeah. So you got your in English, we say it we speak of seven nights. That's a week. Sunite and fortnight, that's two weeks. This was a sunite, debtless rest day. In Hebrew, they say Sabat, the Sabbath.
And that's what this was. In which the Safener he happened as Jesus made the mud and opened up his eyes. He did this on the Sabbath, the day of rest. Verse 15 again, therefore the parasites were also asking him straight out the blind man how he saw again. He claimed proof to them. Well he said, I put the heat, put mud on my eyes and I washed and I see. Now is that testimony? Yes. Does he have personal sensory perception of what happened? Yes. So he gave them that. He would not speculate verse 12. He gave them what he would have been would have been required to give to the people in charge, the phariseites. That was the that was the Supreme Court of Israel, the court of last resort, 71 members.
Well, therefore some out of the Pharisees were claiming proof and they said this, the man is not from alongside the law giver. The law giver, that's God, because he be wards, talking of Jesus Christ here, because he be wards, that means he doesn't safeguard the Sabbath, the debtless rest day. However, like others were claiming proof, they said, how can a man the Phariseites were asking themselves, how can a man, an overstepper of God's law mistakenly, a sinner, in other words, do natural signs such as these. Now they got two choices here. This Jesus Christ just returned sight to that man. Now they did recognize this. These parasites recognized that the miracle of Jesus Christ, whether it was natural or unnatural, natural would be a miracle. I I said that wrong. If it was a natural sign, it's something done with the courses of nature.
If it's an unnatural sign, that's a miracle, a temporary suspension of the normal courses of the laws of nature. They're they're saying if this was a natural sign, something that was done using the laws of nature, like medication, for example, that makes a man better? Well, how could he do this? Because he is a sinner. This man doesn't even observe the Sabbath, they said. Let me ask you a question. Is Jesus Christ doing these things on the Sabbath, a violation of the Sabbath? Working on the Sabbath, is that a violation of the Sabbath? Well, answer is no, it's not.
Why? Because as he said, I am Lord of the Sabbath. The Sabbath is my tool, not yours. I'm God. See what he's saying? When he says that, he did he does say that. And he also says man was not made for the Sabbath. The Sabbath was made for man. Is he right? Yes. Remember, all of good law, all of the laws of nature and the laws of nature's God is for the benefit and the enjoyment of man. We are not, watch this. We are not slaves to the law. We are not under the law. God's people are above the law and the law law exists for them and their good and their benefit.
That's the difference between being under the law and enslaved to the law and the law being your tool for your good. If you follow my thinking. Well, my thinking, well, I've given you a testimony. This is God's thinking. I'm just following what he says. We are not under law. No. No. Law is under us, you see. And we it is there as our tool for our good and benefit and enjoyment. Well, then they said verse 17, they say again to the blind man, what spell you out about him? What do you say about him? Because he opened your eyes. Moreover, the man claimed proof. He said, well, I reckon he's a law talker.
A law talker. That's the word prophetase, prophet. We say prophet. The the Greek new testament word is prophetase. We take it into English without saying what it means. We just try to repeat the sound of it, prophet. Well, that doesn't tell anything. What does the word mean? It means law talker. That's what it means. Talk law. Let's sit down here and talk law. That's what a prophet does. He, he knows something about true law and he, he talks about what it is and he applies it. He said, I think he's a law talker. Now he's no. He is convinced he's a law talker.
He's not speculating. He's given testimony. I've had personal experience with this man. He he made my eyes work. I'll tell you. He's a prophet. He's a law talker. Therefore, is Jesus Christ a law talker? Answer, yes. He's the the law talker, the prophet greater than Moses. That's what they call him. There, well, he's the giver of the law. Of course, he's the author of the law. He's the one that gave it to Moses to start with according to the Bible. Therefore, the Babylonians, Judiacs, the followers of that Babylonian religion called Judaism, trusted no evidence about him, of him that was being blind and then got got his sight. They did not consider his testimony. You see, he knew he was given testimony. He was talking to the sub members of the Supreme Court. And they looked at it like testimony, so he was careful.
But they gave no weight to his testimony, his evidence. So they called his parents. The parents of the man, verse 19, having gotten sight. Verse 19. And they asked him straight out, claiming proof. Reading from the winterized version, claiming proof. Is this man your son for whom you all claim proof that was birthed birthed blind? Therefore, how, here and now, does he see? Asking the parents. Now listen to what his parents say. They're putting them on the witness stand, so to speak. And his parents, therefore, were answered in claim proof. We are aware from evidence that this man is our son.
That's exactly what the Greek text says. How are they aware? Did they hear it from somebody else? No. Did they read it in a genealogical book? No. Did they read the hospital records? No. They said we're aware from evidence firsthand that this man is our son. Well, how would they know that? Well, they the woman was probably giving birth. They didn't have her knocked out, and she watched it happen. And this blind boy had been with him ever since and the father the same way. We know he is our son, and we know from evidence that he was born blind.
They're being very careful too to not speculate. However, verse 21, how he seized from now on, we are not aware from evidence. We know it's true, but how you're asking us how we don't know how it happened or who opened his eyes. We are not aware from evidence. Then they said this, he is of full age. Ask him straight out. He shall talk about himself. Why are you asking us? It didn't happen to us. We are not witnesses to who this man is that did it. But our son, two things about him. Number one, it did happen to him. He has firsthand knowledge. He is a qualified witness. Number two, he is what? It says it right here of age. Oh, what does that mean?
That means he's 20 years old or above. According to the Bible, 20 years old or above is the age of accountability. God will hold you accountable. Age 20 years and above. At common law, we say 21. Why? Because always at common law, we want to be careful in case we make a mistake in our arithmetic, want to on older, not younger younger. That's always been a common law of the age. When I was coming up, the age of majority was 21. Been that way for centuries. And any change from that is unbiblical. 18 is unbiblical. But they said he's of age and he's firsthand witness.
Verse 21. However, how he now sees, we're not aware we're not aware from firsthand evidence, evidence. That's firsthand. You ask him, verse 22. His parents claimed the proof of these things because they were being skittish skittish of the Babylonian Judaacts. We had horses. Dad was a teamster. He had blinders on his team when he teamed in the oil field. Why did he have blinders? Cause a lot of rabbits around there, and a rabbit jumped up and took off. Horses tend to be skittish. They might jump sideways. They might bolt. That's called being skittish. What can make a man skittish? Fear. What makes a horse skittish?
Fear. Not knowing what it is, it jumps up. I've seen horses jump up in the air and jump sideways because they scared up a mouse out of its nest in the in the leaves on the ground. Well, that's what happened here. These folk knew they were on the witness stand. They were under the the iron of being questioned. They knew that that, they needed to be careful and not lie. So they said, you ask him. And the Babylonians Judiacs, verse 22, put together an agreement so that if any man might acknowledge him, that's Jesus Christ, oil drenched, that's Messiah Meshach, he should be put out from the Jewry gathering place. Out from the Jewry Jewry gathering place. What's that? That's what sunagoge means. Sunagoge.
Is a Greek word from the Hellenistic world. We say in English, synagogue. And we had already they've already see, watch this. This is Babylonian law of the city. Here's the high court. They've taken jurisdiction in this case and they've already decided from among themselves that they're going to get a certain outcome. You see that? The Babylonian Judiacs had put together an agreement so that if any man might acknowledge him to be Jesus, the oil the Messiah, Meshach, he would be put out from the jury gathering place out from the synagogue. Now don't take this slightly. Don't just brush over this. What does it mean to be put out?
Well, in what we call Christianity, Rome calls that excommunication. Mhmm. The an yeah. The Anabaptist call that Roger, did you need or wanna say something? No. I'm agreeing with you. Okay. The Anabaptists call it shunning. Shunning. Whatever you call it in English, it amounts to the same thing. But but here it's more. The Bible teaches that if a person will not submit to the process, the course of process, the common law, as we say, of settling disputes among God's people, they are to be treated as a heathen and a tax collector. Jesus Christ said that Matthew 18. That's called the processes of our due process. You can go back and read it. Fascinating. We're supposed to use it today.
Due process. Don't wanna adhere to it? Treat the other man as a heathen and a tax collector. Let me ask you a question. Are tax collectors thrown out of our society? No. No. They're part of the world order. You don't throw them out. Well, what can you do to them? You can't right to kill them would be murder. You don't want to do that. To throw them out and be belligerent toward them and shun, not shun them, but to excommunicate, Rome claims the power to do that. That's Babylonian. Well, what is biblical? Well, just don't have anything to do with them. Just stay away from them.
Shunning is a good word. I like that. Yeah. Because it gets you know, you don't wanna say he said treat them as a tax collector. Okay. How do you treat tax collectors? Well, you don't send them Christmas cards at Christmas. If you see them, you'd probably just rather avoid them if you could. You don't want to make yourself visible in a crowd so they draw a beat on you. You just leave them alone and stay away from them. Right. Right. You know, I've had people say just by analogy too, a lot of police officers or sheriff deputies, they're young.
They want respect. They know they don't have it all the time. And so when they're trying to catch people speeding, what's the word? Well, as you drive by, don't look at them. Don't try to like you would a dog, look them in the eye. You know, you look a dog in the eye and if he's got the wrong attitude, he may jump you. Well, that's a challenge you see. Men in federal prison and state prisons don't look each other in the eye too much Unless they think it's necessary, there are those times, but you want to avoid conflicts and you look another man in the eye in the wrong context, and he'll take it as a challenge like a dog would. This is the way men are.
It's reality, friends. Men standing and serving food in prison at the end of the line where they serve the tray, you don't look the man that takes the tray in the eye. Never. These are unwritten laws, but it comes down to this. They didn't wanna look. Jesus Christ said that it's proper just to leave people alone that will not submit to the process that Jesus Christ outlines for his people. Not submitting to process, we call it a common law. We live in a common law country. We don't live in the Roman empire. And to understand that helps us understand a lot about what the Bible says in the new Testament about what to do friends and how to deal with government. But let's get back to this. Let's get back to this. So they were gonna put them out of the jewelry gathering place, the synagogue, and to them, what that meant was you couldn't buy or sell anymore.
You were persona non grata. Nobody would do business with you. The Amish do the same thing. You get thrown out of the Amish community, they hope you starve to death, and some of them do. They they they won't have anything to do with them. The Dutch reform people are pretty much that way too. Is that biblical? No. It's not. What it means is you just treat them as heathens and tax collectors. We need to stick to what the Bible says. Follow the processes it gives us. So they had already they already had the outcome figured out here. This is law of the city, friends. His parents claim proof. Through this, because he is a full age, ask him straight up.
Just ask him, what are you asking us? So they came back to the fellow that was made blind. Verse 24. They sounded out a second time. What does that mean? That word I translate sounded out. That means summoned. That's official stuff, friends, and it's to the man. It's inequity. The court only summons people personally, even in our common law courts. Summon him. They sounded out. They called for him a second time. They brought the witness back and claimed proof to him. Get they said, give way to worth to the lawgiver. Now they're invoking God and in a blasphemous way, by the way, listen to what they say. You glorify God. Now they understood that was important. That's what it means to give weight of worth.
That means glorify God. Remember what's the chief end of man? To glorify God and enjoy him forever. They said that. People, people that are evil will use the Bible, act like they're Christian folk. Oh, they can put on an act for years. I've seen it. Incredible. Almost unbelievable. Well, the believable. What does the Bible say? Well, watch out, for those angels of light. They look Christian, they act Christian, they promote Christian ideas, but they're working for the devil. They're incognito. Some of them know it. Some of them don't. They just want what they want. But they said give glory to God. We are aware from evidence that this man is an overstepper of God's law mistakenly.
Oh, that's different, you see? The disciples of the jurors of Jesus Christ and panel jury said, who sinned on purpose, not mistakenly on purpose? The Pharisees said, we know these people are, they're the unwashed masses. They say that in other places. These people are the rabble. I'm quoting the Bible. The phariseites said of everybody else in Israel, these people are the rabble that knows not the law of God. They're just rabble. They're trash.
[01:58:49] Unknown:
Trash.
[01:58:50] Unknown:
Yeah. That's what they're saying about him here. I have not been aware from evidence. I have been aware from evidence of one thing, that being blind here and now, I see. There's that famous statement. Even made a song about it. Roy Akerlof used to sing it on the Grand Ole Opry. A great song. We used to sing it when I was a kid. Once I was blind, and now I see. Yeah. I saw the light. I saw the lights, the name of the song in it, Roger. Yeah. Okay. The whistling's coming.
[01:59:30] Unknown:
Yep. Man, Brent, well, that's pretty good. You pretty well ended that at the end of the show here. Thank you very much. Larry, did that answer your question? I hope so. Brent, we just appreciate you, man. Everything you bring, all these intricacies. Yeah. Alright. All the interest intricacies of the origination of the word and all of the translation. It's invaluable. And, we appreciate you, and thank you. So another one in the can here. Brent will be on his spot over there on Patriot Soapbox tomorrow, and we will be opposite him. That works out sometimes rarely, and other times it's a conflict. But, both of us record these shows, so maybe that alleviates any decision for you.
We'll be back again tomorrow. Thank you very much and hope you have a real good day and all that. Brent, you got anything parting to tell our folks here? Thank you, Roger. Appreciate you. Just commonlawyer.com.
[02:00:35] Unknown:
Go to commonlawyer.com. Sign up for that course on comparative law, comparing and contrasting the law of the land and the law of the city, our common law with the canister civil laws of Rome. If you don't if you don't compare and contrast them, as men have said for centuries, it's not clear what our common law is. This is the only way by compare what we call comparative lawyers that have disowned themselves to comparing and contrasting the fundamentals of those two traditions of religion, law, and government. And they're the only two traditions of religion, law, and government available to mankind.
[02:01:09] Unknown:
I think that one's gonna be well attended. And it starts, what did you say, July 10?
[02:01:15] Unknown:
Yes, Roger. Yes. Yes. Roger. That's right. Okay. Good enough.
[02:01:21] Unknown:
Anybody got anything for Brent or myself here? We're off the air. Well, we've met we've mesmerized them, I think, Brent. Well, I'm gonna go hustle up some lunch and see what Friday brings, and we roll into the second half of the year here pretty quick. And I think this summer's gonna be challenging. We'll see. There's just a what an amazing time to be alive and see this political situation and live it, Brent.
[02:01:53] Unknown:
Uh-huh.
[02:01:54] Unknown:
Yep. It's true. It beat DJ Trump is a man who will go down in history.
[02:02:04] Unknown:
Yeah. We hope he that that can be taken two ways, Roger. Yes. I I know that, intentionally. I know what you mean, though. We hope he's lifted up in history. Hey, Roger.
[02:02:16] Unknown:
Yes, Larry. A giant of history to me. Yes. Yeah. There's, a I I think yesterday it happened. There's some court that nobody has ever heard of. There's this one attorney that I listened to, and he said he's been practicing for, like, over thirty years, and he never even heard about this court that exists. And they pretty much knocked down one third of all of Trump's tariffs as being unlawful. Of course, the news media is reporting that this court, I think it's made up of, several several judges, like a panel, and they, they they, the news media is saying that all of the tariffs like, they're making it out that all of the tariffs have been put on hold, but another person I was listening to said, no. It's just one third of them, like a certain category of the tariffs.
But that this court did this, and then there's another judge, another federal judge that also put a, election type of order holding up the Trump administration from deporting people, and they a lot of, a lot of, you know, students, who listen in who listen to this type of news, they're saying that this is a very strategic move because, the the, Supreme Court, I think they go on vacation for three months. And so now the Trump administration only has a limited amount of time to appeal this and try to get something done because now this is gonna be on hold for, like, four months.
[02:03:57] Unknown:
It's a three panel, trade tribunal, I guess, in New York City. I think it may have been an outgrowth of the World Trade Organization, but I'm not totally sure. But they're affiliated somehow, and that's what I that opinion may have already been, overturned. But, that's where that's coming from. And you're right. Nobody had ever heard of them before. They're just flapping around in desperation, Larry, in my in my judgment.
[02:04:29] Unknown:
Yeah. And if there is a court like that and it's not part of the judicial branch, and it doesn't sound like it is No. Then it's it's then it's the it's a tribunal of the executive branch, and he's in total control of that too Yeah. As a matter of law. Yep.
[02:04:44] Unknown:
Brent, there should be a bunch of really juicy decisions coming out this I think Barnes said it's this week and next week, because they are about to go on vacation, and they're bringing out the birthright citizenship decision should be in there, which I'm really interested to hear. And, several other of these big cases coming out. Do you what'd you think of only Amy Conan Bryant recusing herself on that case out of Oklahoma? Did you hear about that? No. Why did she recuse herself? Because she's a Catholic, and this came out of char it was on charter schools. And whatever the issue was, was, protestants trying to keep Catholics out. And so she recused herself, and it was a four four decision.
[02:05:31] Unknown:
Oh, I see. Yeah.
[02:05:33] Unknown:
So, anyway
[02:05:34] Unknown:
no. Go ahead. That didn't work either.
[02:05:37] Unknown:
No. Didn't work very well. Boy, talk about a disappointment. We're stuck with her for decades. So maybe DJ will do a better job this time around if he gets a shot or something. That's what happens. That's what happens when
[02:05:52] Unknown:
it becomes a matter of sex and and, color of skin or race. Mhmm. And you can't tell politically. Don't tell me that politically they don't, he doesn't feel bound to point women to women and men to men and all that. That's all quotas. See? Sure. Sure. He feels he feels trapped by that. Yeah. Sure. Yep. And, it it's wrong because it shouldn't have anything to do with it. I think it's the Federalist Society
[02:06:21] Unknown:
that Barnes keeps wailing on it. They, I believe, suggested not only her but Kavanaugh also. Yeah. And both of them have kinda turned out to be duds.
[02:06:33] Unknown:
Yeah. I see what you're saying. I see that too. Well but we're not gonna have we're not in a perfect world. No. Law tradition still works in an imperfect world. That's the beauty of it Because it's not about precision. It's about keeping your nose headed in the right direction. Yeah.
[02:06:50] Unknown:
And mine's headed to a a big fat Amber. So, anyway, I'll, see you next Friday, Brent. And and I don't know if Frannie's already gone. We love you, girl. Thanks. And, Brent, we'll talk to you soon. What what about what is I looked while we were on the air. You're not in my WhatsApp directory. Your son uses WhatsApp because that's how he and I communicate. Do you have WhatsApp loaded?

Okay, man. Well, I'll see you next week, if not before. Okay. Thanks, Roger. Okay. Thank you, Brent, as always. Audience, anything left for me? Audience is mighty quiet today. I'm gonna assume that's a no. That means it's a it's in the can, Paul. Hey, Roger. Thank you, buddy. Yeah. Well, yes.
[02:07:52] Unknown:
There you know, there's a bunch of manhunts going on, from, Arkansas to, New Orleans Prisoners and, I guess some, police chief, ex police chief in Arkansas. They're calling him a murderer. I don't know what he did, but they're on the lookout for him, 56 year old. They got a $10,000 reward and, you know, looking in caves and woods and all kinds of Yeah. Abandoned home, whatever. I don't know what he did. But a bunch of prisoners escaped a few weeks ago from, New Orleans prison or something, and they found most of them and two still left. And, they're looking for them. But, you know, my buddy called me from Texas this morning, and he said he read me this quote out of some on YouTube. He said, in 1712, in Paris, France, they offered prisoners freedom if they would marry a prostitute and move to Louisiana.
And I said, wow. No wonder they called them Cajuns. Because they were all caged.
[02:08:59] Unknown:
Well, they're they they came from a whole bunch of places. I wasn't just one the only source. But Well, I I know that. It's a rich culture down there, man. Sure is.
[02:09:11] Unknown:
Pretty wild. My bond memories I've never heard of that one.
[02:09:15] Unknown:
No. So, no telling. Okay. Thank you, Dave. Anybody else? Bank? Yeah. I'm gonna go go chomp down and maybe take a little siesta and something else and be back with you, manana and la manana. So, you each and every one of you have a great day. Okay?

Hey, Paul. Can you check your chat, please? Thank you, sir.
[02:12:16] Unknown:
Hello? Hello? Can't hear anybody. Can anybody hear me? Of course, I wouldn't be able to hear it.
[02:12:32] Unknown:
I don't believe anybody's got their ears on today.
[02:12:41] Unknown:
Well, I heard that. How are you doing?
[02:12:51] Unknown:
It's called you.
[02:12:58] Unknown:
I would like anybody to tell me what the history of trusts are in this country. Pretty much didn't exist before the civil war. And you can thank that whole world for things like BlackRock, in my opinion. These are the children of the wealthy who took over this country. That's how they were originally used to consolidate, monopolize, and not be taxed. And I, I see this limited liability act that was first put in in 1850, you know, like, ten years prior to the civil war. And one of the first things the churches did is use it unscrupulous pastors used it to run up debts and do unscrupulous things because they were protected by that limited liability.
I just have problem with trusts. I, I don't see their good. And when you're talking about a a trust that God shows us, well, his equity is fair and just. If you're gonna adjudicate a trust in this country, it's gonna be in a court of equity. There's just no way around that. And I know a lot of people you know, I see it as fighting fire with fire, but I wish as nationals, we would try to find, ways that would protect us, and that would have been the protection that people had just because of their basic rights prior to the civil war. We the common guy didn't have trust.
He was protected because he was protected by things like the constitution. I
[02:14:49] Unknown:
So we no longer have the constitution.
[02:14:53] Unknown:
I'm sorry?
[02:14:54] Unknown:
We no longer have the Constitution.
[02:14:57] Unknown:
Well, as a national, you do.
[02:14:59] Unknown:
As a national? With a hefty how few of us are there?
[02:15:06] Unknown:
You're breaking up sort of kind. I'm I'm having trouble hearing you. Sorry.
[02:15:10] Unknown:
I got a I got a beard. I'm fat. I got headphones on. Sometimes it doesn't doesn't work. I it works for listening, and that's what I try and do. But
[02:15:22] Unknown:
I would like to and I don't even like that term national. I guess I've said that before too because why not just call ourselves Tennesseans, Californians, Wisconsinians? And I have to worry about that upper and lower as state. I try to I really do try to simplify things, and maybe I'm stupid, but, I just
[02:15:47] Unknown:
We're obviously not stupid.
[02:15:50] Unknown:
It's just really I don't know. You're either freer or not. You know? And when it comes to liability, you know, there's a great temptation if you got everything locked up in your trust, and you really do harm somebody, and they can't touch you. Are you gonna ante up and be fair with them once they've tried to, attack you and they and they and they don't have a method of getting to you, are you gonna be fair with them?
[02:16:25] Unknown:
So my business has insurance. Yeah. So they can be made whole in that that commercial contract. But me, I shouldn't be held liable beyond that insurance policy if that you know, if if the insurance policy is large enough to cover, you know, the damages that I caused. And, typically, most stuff is well underneath that policy, but I guess you never really know. And that would be my it'd be part of my conviction to say, hey. I owe you beyond the policy because I killed your child or you know? But
[02:17:13] Unknown:
that's I don't know. I don't know, honestly. I I see people who wanna go that route. You know? That's just fine with me. I'm just asking a question. I mean, for myself. And I like what Well, I because he explained that you're hung up on it. Pardon? I feel you're hung up on the trust
[02:17:32] Unknown:
because you don't you don't believe in it, and that's fine. Reality is I land that I don't want somebody else trying to sue me because they walked on my land and getting my land. Yeah. And Get it. You know? Get all that. It it it just doesn't make sense. I I take care of my I just I just got done cutting a one acre one acre property. Now I'm putting water to the trees. I got a a pump going to pump water, and it's got fruit trees. And, you know, heaven forbid, a kid climbs up my tree. I don't know about it, and they sue me. You know? I can't do anything about your kid falling. I didn't cause it. But the courts wouldn't see that.
The courts would justify it and say, no. You're you're on his his land, and he didn't stop you. He didn't put up a notice, some kind of a a notice. Like, I don't know. To me, it's just excessive on on their side because they're using codes and regulations, and we're trying to fight on constitutional protection. You know? This doesn't if you can't get to it, and I'm not versed enough to get to it. I had a hundred dollar ticket. I couldn't even get my way out of that. You know? And, obviously, I got that the the first three weeks of becoming a national, you know, after studying it for a month. And and, no, after a month, you're not gonna know any information. And I'm blessed for getting that ticket and fighting it because I learned so much more than a person that doesn't have the experience.
You know? So I think next time, I I might do a lot better. And and, hopefully, it's another hundred dollar ticket, and that's all. It's not a, you know, a a $10,000 fine or, you know, something bigger, but it was a good experience for me. And the trust is just a protection. You know? I I I want my home in a protection because I'm out to hurt somebody, but because I don't want the the layman coming after me with his I don't even know what he's got. He's got civil rights. You know? Civil fourteenth amendment rights to to come after me.
[02:19:58] Unknown:
Yeah. I I don't disagree with any of that. I guess what I'm trying to say is as state citizens, we should be looking for the remedies that we had prior to that civil war. Sure. And and be able to stand on those and because the the system is evil, and this is the reason this is the reason I think we we've gone to trust.
[02:20:25] Unknown:
I mean, I think you're pretty smart. I think, you know, when we start talking about bonds and is a bond a way to protect somebody and being self insured that way, you know, to to protect. But the question is, if I if I make a bond, is that bond really gonna be able to be cashed? And it may or may not. I don't know. You know? And I hand it over to State Farm because their customer and and policyholder got in a car accident with me because of my my driving skills, whatever it might be. I've gotta I've gotta protect that policy on their side, and the only way I'm gonna do that through a bond, I don't even know if that bond would go through. And and I'm not versed enough to do that. I'm I'm about there, but I'm not I hear of them. I've I've I'm on a channel that I follow on Facebook that they talk a lot about it.
And driving or traveling with with no license plates and no license, and I I'm I'm learning a lot of information from them. But it's all it's just it's just, you know, it's another it's another layer of metal on your armor. That's all it is to me.
[02:21:52] Unknown:
I I don't think Yeah. I don't think a truck problem with anybody who wants to do it. All I'm trying to do is bring up. If we're really going to be the state citizen, then we should try to understand how how that protection existed prior to the civil war, I guess, is what I'm sort of getting at. You know? And that makes it makes sense. I mean, I'm not discounting you.
[02:22:15] Unknown:
I'm just saying me. I I think that
[02:22:20] Unknown:
And and like you say, it's hard for me to have a if you don't if you don't practice something, you're really not gonna be very good at it. You know? You you gotta sort of hone this the steel. And so if we're not looking for alternative medicine, do we use the system's system? Are we really freeing ourselves? I mean, in the ultimate sense of it, in a spiritual sense of it, are we really freeing ourselves? Or are we using their fire to fight them? It's sort of how I look at the trust. It's
[02:23:01] Unknown:
it's fighting fire with fire. Samuel, can I jump in here a minute? Sure. So, you know, just because they didn't have it before 1850 doesn't mean it it, you know, it can't help us. And, you know, I I realized what it was, you know, created for. I think those were those Rockefeller trusts.
[02:23:24] Unknown:
Sorry. E Rockefeller. Yeah. That that's But They consolidated
[02:23:28] Unknown:
the wealth of this country before 1900. My property is so my children can get inherit my, you know, wealth without, you know, them being taxed on it. It shouldn't be taxed. I'm trying to save it from the freaking scumbag corporate democracy. Not, you know, if I get in a in a if I hurt somebody, you know. And hopefully, if I did, you know, I would have the means to, you know, make them whole. And pretty much that's what insurance is for. They they force us to have insurance and Yeah. There's a lot of people that don't. You know, my daughter got hit by a car. She was walking across the street. The lady it was the lady's fault. My daughter was in the crosswalk. They gave the lady gave the cop her insurance card and he wrote her a ticket for failure to yield and then found out she didn't have insurance and nothing happened.
So, you know, my daughter could have been killed. She was going 45 miles an hour. She got injured pretty good, you know. Well, not good, but bad. But, you know, thank God she's she, you know, no life well, they got rods and pins in her freaking leg, against our wishes. They did it anyway. But, anyway, you know, we weren't made whole. She wasn't made whole.
[02:25:02] Unknown:
And our insurance covered it. You know? Yeah. So I get all that, Dave. You know? I understand that. And I and I'm not saying that I might not end up with a trust one day. All's I'm saying is I'm looking for what the alternatives may have been for people. I mean, you actually did own your land, and it and it couldn't be taken for debt or taxes at at some point in this country. And that was based on on on a number of different acts. But, again, these things, Congress can do what they wanna do. So they can make it so, and they can take it away.
[02:25:42] Unknown:
And And all we're gonna get out of them is more of the same. Yeah. Taking, taking, taking. Because the people aren't standing up and saying no, but hell no.
[02:25:55] Unknown:
Yeah. But we're not educated to stand up and say no. We are we are against queers and whatever, but that's about it. Them. Right?
[02:26:04] Unknown:
Well, that is the school system. Defend our rights.
[02:26:08] Unknown:
Why would they teach us that? It's a government indoctrinated schooling.
[02:26:16] Unknown:
Yep.
[02:26:19] Unknown:
It's not in their best interest to teach us. No. Well, it's a danger to their democracy.
[02:26:26] Unknown:
Hey, Dave.
[02:26:27] Unknown:
Yeah.
[02:26:29] Unknown:
Yeah. It's Larry. That's not to say that, your your insurance company will not file a lawsuit against that lady personally. They might just do that, and you may not even know.
[02:26:41] Unknown:
Well, they didn't.
[02:26:46] Unknown:
Well, that's on them. I mean, if if they paid for your all of your bills, then that's that's great. If they don't wanna recoup that money, that's on them because they do have the the choice to sue, you know, the whoever damaged you, and they could do that, you know, in their in in her private in a in a private manner. You know what I mean?
[02:27:10] Unknown:
Isn't that isn't that considered an assignment of proceeds to do that? And in some states, it's illegal to use the assignment of proceeds. Not no. That's how they do it, but that's how I would do it if I was protecting one of my customers, you know, if I was in a situation like that.
[02:27:34] Unknown:
And another thing is, she may not have any assets. So the insurance company may have already, you know, took a look at what they could find on the public record, and this maybe the lady doesn't have anything. So, like, what's the sense?
[02:27:47] Unknown:
You can't get blood out of a turnip. Right? Larry, for all we know, if these bonds that are on us from, say, from, the birth, she could be worth millions, and they just tapped into that. I
[02:28:04] Unknown:
don't know. Were made whole. We don't know.
[02:28:07] Unknown:
They were made whole, but my daughter wasn't. Yeah. She's got this freaking rod in her leg now for life. And and then, you know, it's affecting her. I got screws in my in my ankle that I mean, I feel them, man. I they're affecting me.
[02:28:23] Unknown:
Dave, Michigan has no fault insurance in the way our insurance laws are set up. It's your own insurance company that pays your medical bills, and they only cover you for three years. I personally found out all this info when I got rear ended Uh-huh. And screwed because at the time, Michigan was only they had a limited liability of $25,000 with minimum. And within a year after my accident, they raised it to a quarter million dollars.
[02:28:57] Unknown:
You gotta gotta remember we're living in a system that doesn't discharge a debt.
[02:29:02] Unknown:
Right.
[02:29:04] Unknown:
Where is that gonna end up?
[02:29:08] Unknown:
Well, that's why we got a quadrillion, dollar debt. It it'll it just keeps going up every dollar spent into the into the economy in any manner. It it's debt.
[02:29:19] Unknown:
Trump's gonna give you a golden dome.
[02:29:22] Unknown:
Yeah. Right. The golden dome. Right? It works as it'll work as well as that iron dome over there in in, Israel. Right? What a joke. What a joke.
[02:29:40] Unknown:
This system is just scares the crap out of me. That's all I got to say. I, I give it a lot of respect for how deviant it is.
[02:29:52] Unknown:
They they are brilliant. They're devious minds. They're mad scientists. They're they're they're, criminally insane. You know?
[02:30:03] Unknown:
Yeah. It's it's an The old system is just a joke. It's just a it's just a game. It's all it is. And once you learn their game, you can adapt to it, modify it, and be stronger than their their version. It truly is a game. It's a game of corporations. That's how it is.
[02:30:24] Unknown:
It's a Game of Thrones.
[02:30:28] Unknown:
But the point away claim. The point for me is to be to get out of Babylon. If if there's a if there's a door there, I'd like to find it. You know?
[02:30:36] Unknown:
Because if she Yeah. It's the dock door. It's on the dock. You gotta go down in the water. Can't hear you, Rich.
[02:30:49] Unknown:
Oh, I'm sorry. I was talking to my dog. I'll mute. Oh.
[02:30:56] Unknown:
He doesn't understand dogs.
[02:30:59] Unknown:
Samuel.
[02:31:02] Unknown:
Yeah.
[02:31:03] Unknown:
Okay. So you mentioned several minutes ago about the state treating the inhabitants of the state differently before the civil war. And I wanted to ask you, how did the state treat the inhabitants different for the civil war compared to how the state treat the inhabitants after the civil war and now today?
[02:31:35] Unknown:
Well, we weren't property prior to then like we are as citizens now. That's one big difference. Yeah. We don't have any protections from the the Bill of Rights as citizens. All those things have led to a runaway federal government that grew tremendously after that point in time. And it's, you know, I mean, I made the argument in in in debate class probably about twenty years ago that at one one of these days, we're gonna end up with one corporation in the world, and it'll it'll probably be The United States Of America. I
[02:32:22] Unknown:
don't I don't know. I don't think they're the kingpin. Well I think it'll be called something else.
[02:32:30] Unknown:
Yeah. Well, like, the Vatican's got a lot to do with it, undoubtedly.
[02:32:35] Unknown:
London.
[02:32:37] Unknown:
I heard a guy say that they actually the Vatican, you can't find this anywhere. I tried to look for it, but that they own the Bank of, inter international settlements.
[02:32:50] Unknown:
I've heard that.
[02:32:53] Unknown:
If that's the case, well, they pretty much own the world.
[02:32:57] Unknown:
Watch the movie. There's a documentary. It's, like, seven hours long. It's called, Ring of Power. There was a there used to be a YouTube channel. It was called, change the channel. Change d a channel. The guy's name was Webb. I can't remember. I'm sure it was a, you know, a pseudonym, but he was on true frequency ray radio on freaky Fridays. A bunch of hosts would, you know, get together and talk about, you know, freaky stuff on the Friday nights. And, he had this channel that was about a 50 full length uncut movies with, you know, it was a director's account when YouTube first came into existence.
They offered these director's accounts to certain people and and, he had one and it was the highest quality audio and visual available on the net. And, even after Google bought him, he you know, all the stuff was uncut, un, you know, no commercials, no no parts, you know, full length. And, I found that on there. He had movies like, They Live, you know, anyway, lots of great stuff. That, that documentary, I watched it on my grandson's first birthday, party when he turned one in 2014. In the middle of a party. I was sat at a at a desk in the middle of the living room watching that.
It blew me away. Seven hours, man. Wow. Ring of power. Check it out if you can. I yield
[02:35:14] Unknown:
Well, not to change the subject, but, does anybody know what happened to, Republic Broadcasting Network? I haven't been able to pick them up for the last couple days or so.
[02:35:28] Unknown:
So I called, and, Julie said there's a line down or something. But, yeah, on on any of the call in numbers, they don't work anymore. Well, it says, you know, not not online or whatever. But I called an old number, (605) 562-5111. And you can listen to uncle Fester the you know, after his show is over, the replays work again on you know, if you press it says, welcome to Truth Frequency Radio. I mean, Republic Broadcasting because you can handle the truth, truth, truth, truth. Press 1 for this, 2 for that, 3 for this, and they go through number 9. And, the only one well, the only one that I ever listened to now is uncle Fester. He's on channel three.
And right after the show ends, that hadn't worked for a long time for a couple years. And now, I dialed it because I couldn't get through on alt media, and, it worked. It went through, and, I've listened to it the twenty eighth and twenty ninth now. And and it starts right at the beginning of the show. Each one, Michael Gatti's on there, his Saturday show. You know, there's some other shows, but I can't I can't really tell you what they are. But uncle Fester's on number three. So at, you know, 05:00 eastern today, his show will be replayed live until probably you can hear it all weekend till Monday.
Show ends. IU.
[02:37:23] Unknown:
Yeah. Well, I tried calling in to, you know, the the call in number, say something, and it just went on and on. I never did get anybody to pick up.
[02:37:35] Unknown:
So I I thought that they might Because if if nobody answers, that means the lines are full. They only answer when there's an open line. You know, if that's, Mike going people were complaining, you know, they had some commercial on there or something. I can't remember what it was. But it used to be, you know, not as many people called in and you could you could call in and they'd answer and then you'd hear the show playing. Now that, you know, you hear him ringing from his mouth and they don't pick up until there's an opening. So if you don't call right at, you know, at 01:00, I guess, Let's see. Three, four, five, whatever time it is, your time. It's five or 04:00 eastern is when they start taking calls.
Call right then and you should get through, or right at the you know, near the end of the show. But I tried to call in that first day, you know, the whole hour that it I wasn't able to well, maybe I did get on that first day. Actually, I think it was right after you. Anyway, sometimes it's hard to get through, and it'll just ring.
[02:39:12] Unknown:
Well, I've got this stupid smartphone that I've been, tuning in through through Google forever and ever, and and now it that doesn't come up anymore.
[02:39:24] Unknown:
You know, I I don't know if it's something that they have to pay for, but the call and listen line ain't working either on alt media. You know, even on the you know, when you call that the the old RBN number, call in number to get all nine shows, when you press number one, you get the live stream. Whatever's live, it it's doing the same thing. So something is down somewhere, and I did tell Julie about it, but it's still down. So that may have something to do with that Google Play or whatever you're listening to it on too.
[02:40:11] Unknown:
Well, thanks, Dave. Yeah. I'm glad to hear that they're they're still on on the air, and they haven't managed.
[02:40:19] Unknown:
This is Yeah. They're still on. If you go online and go to the website, you can listen to it. .Org.
[02:40:28] Unknown:
Yeah. That's what I I've been trying to do, and it it's coming up mute. And then the alternative, listening channels, you hit those, and nobody wants to play. So it's yeah. I was getting a little concerned, but, maybe they'll fix the glitch. We'll see. Yeah.
[02:41:45] Unknown:
Anyway, I had to step away there for a minute, Greg. But so you you're saying you go to the website and you can't get on either?
[02:41:59] Unknown:
Yes, sir.
[02:42:01] Unknown:
Well, if you dial (605) 562-5111, you can if you wanted to listen to yesterday's show, you could still do it, right up until the, you know, five eastern. You know, it it it it's right when you call it, and push that number 3, it starts right at the beginning of the show. And, yesterday's show will play till five eastern, and then today's show will will replay. I don't I just I checked it earlier to see if it was bringing in the live stream, and it isn't still. But they may be working on it. I don't know. Maybe they don't have the money for it anymore. I don't know that either.
[02:42:58] Unknown:
Yeah. There are a lot of unknowns to this dilemma.
[02:43:28] Unknown:
