O death, where is thy sting? It's been removed by Heaven's King. His corn of wheat shall fall and die A new body shall spring. He descended, that I may rise. He descended, that I may rise. He breached the lowest gates of hell For my soul of sin dispelled. Painted, flound, no one can tell that I may rise. He descended, that I may rise. He descended, that I may rise. Three days, three nights in the heart of the earth That I may know the second birth. He set aside joy and birth, that I may rise. O death, my sin did scour. O death, and hell devoured. Though embodied, I'm weak and frail. I shall be raised in power. My fame in this world cannot be found. No praise, no glory, and no crown. Though this world will forget my name, My God will blot it out. He descended, that I may rise. He descended, that I may rise. He breached the lowest gates of hell For my soul of sin dispelled. Painted, flound, no one can tell that I may rise. He descended, that I may rise. He descended, that I may rise. Three days, three nights in the heart of the earth That I may know the second birth. He set aside joy and birth, that I may rise. Amen. Wonderful singing. At this time the ushers will come forth to collect the offering. And you can turn in your Bibles to 2 Corinthians 11. And you can come forth to collect the offering. And you can come forth to collect the offering. Good evening. Tonight we're in 2 Corinthians chapter 11. 2 Corinthians chapter 11 and the Bible reads, Would to God you could bear with me a little in my folly, and indeed bear with me. For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy, for I have espoused you to one husband, That I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. But I fear lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtlety, So your mind should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, Or if you receive another spirit, which he have not received, Or another gospel, which he have not accepted, you might well bear with him. For I suppose I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles, But though I be rude in speech, yet not in knowledge, But we have been thoroughly made manifest among you in all things. Have I committed an offence in abasing myself that you might be exalted, Because I have preached to you the gospel of God freely? I robbed other churches, taking wages of them to do you service. And when I was present with you, and wanted, I was chargeable to no man, For that which was lacking to me, the brethren which came from Macedonia supplied. And in all things I have kept myself from being burdensome unto you, And so will I keep myself. As the truth of Christ is in me, no man shall stop me of this boasting in the regions of Achaea. Wherefore, because I love you not, God knoweth. But what I do, that will I do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion, That wherein they glory they may be found even as we. For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel, for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness, Whose end shall be according to their works. I say again, let no man think me a fool, if otherwise yet as a fool receive me, That I may boast myself a little. That which I speak, I speak it not after the Lord, But as it were foolishly, in this confidence of boasting. Seeing that many glory after the flesh, I will glory also, For you suffer fools gladly, seeing ye yourselves are wise. For you suffer if a man bring you into bondage, If a man devour you, if a man take of you, If a man exalt himself, if a man smite you on the face. I speak as concerning reproach, as though we have been weak. Howbeit whereinsoever any is bold, I speak foolishly, I am bold also. Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they the seed of Abraham? So am I. Are they ministers of Christ? I speak as a fool. I am more, in labors more abundant, in stripes above measure, In prisons more frequent, in deaths off. Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one, Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, Thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep, In journeyings often, in perils of water, in perils of robbers, In perils by my own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, In perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, In perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren, In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, In hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness, Beside both sayings that are without, that which cometh upon me daily, The care of all the churches. Who is weak and I am not weak? Who is offended and I burn not? If I must needs glory, I will glory in the things which concern mine infirmities. The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed forevermore, know it that I lie not. In Damascus, the governor under Aretas, the king kept the city of Damascenes with a garrison, desires to apprehend me, and through a window in a basket was I let down by the wall and escaped his hands. Let's pray. Dear Lord, we thank you for the people here today, Lord, for the church you've given us, Lord, and right now we just pray for Pastor Shelley, and I pray that you give him boldness and I pray that you fill him with the Spirit as he preaches your word, Lord, and that we're edified by the preaching, Lord. Just bless this time and every aspect of it. We pray this in Jesus' name. Amen. I want to say thank you again to Pastor Mejia and his family for having me here, and everything's been really great. You have a great church here and everyone here has been very hospitable to us, and we really appreciate that. Definitely have enjoyed our time here in California, and the weather is incredible, so it's hard to get mad about being in California, and especially when I get to be around you guys. Here in 2 Corinthians 11, we see the Apostle Paul. I felt really loud. Is that okay? All right. I might get really loud. No, I'm just kidding. Because I already know I'm just barely talking, so I can't even. No, I'm just kidding. 2 Corinthians 11, the Apostle Paul is kind of dealing with an issue here in the church where there's several people that are just bad people, and going as far as basically they're just ministers of the devil. There's wicked infiltrators that have crept into this particular church, and he's having to address a lot of issues with these bad people, but he kind of brings up some just basic truths that I think can extrapolate beyond this passage even as well. It says in verse 12, But what I do that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion, that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we. So when the Apostle Paul is addressing this group of people that have come into the church, they're talking a big talk, they explain how wonderful they are and how great of a Christian they are and how they're the true apostles, and they're kind of bad-talking people like the Apostle Paul and other great men of God. The Apostle Paul makes it very clear that his goal in bringing these people up is to strip them of their occasion, is that he has a desire to cut them off, and notice that he's wanting to cut off their occasion which desire occasion, meaning that these wicked people, these evil people, they just desire so badly to be the guy at the top or the leader or someone that everyone looks to. They just really have an innate desire for power. They have an innate desire to be in control. They want to be the head honcho, and not for righteous reasons but simply just for the glory of it. They just want people to praise them. They simply just are power hungry. And it makes me think of a group of people that we have today, politicians. I mean politicians today, really, they just desire occasion, do they not? They just desire to be in charge. They typically, it feels like, don't have any true convictions. Most of their talking points are fed to them. They just kind of speak out of both sides of their mouth because really the only thing that matters to them is getting elected, not actually sticking to their guns, not actually delivering on their promises, not actually helping their community, not helping their state or their nation or whatever particular election they're in. And one group that just seems to be the worst is the Democrats. Now I'm not up here advocating for the Republicans or anything like that, but if I were to say which one just feels the worst and looks the worst and just seems the worst, it's the Democrats. I mean the Democrats is just a party of Satan basically. And what I've noticed though about Democrats is there's almost like a similar parallel to a spiritual realm, like that's a carnal fight, but there's almost like a spiritual fight there where there's people that are like spiritual Democrats. And to kind of understand where I'm coming from, we kind of have to understand who Democrats are for a moment and then we'll kind of relate that to the Scriptures. But I'll tell you this, they both desire occasion. They both just desire to be in control. They desire power. And if we read a little bit further in this passage, look what it says in verse 13. For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ, and no marvel, for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness, whose end shall be according to their works. So the Apostle Paul says those people that are very wicked and desire this position and authority, they never are going to act like they truly are. They're going to pretend to be something that they're not. They're going to pretend to be righteous. They're going to pretend that they have a righteous cause. They're going to pretend like they're holy. They're going to pretend like they're better than everybody else when in fact they're worse than everybody else. And this is very true when it comes to Democrats. And I kind of have three points to think about this evening, but when there's three people that we want to cut off, when we want to not give them occasion, we don't want to give them power, we don't want to give them a seat of authority, the number one group of these spiritual Democrats is the sinful. It's the sinful. We don't want our leaders to be the most sinful people amongst us. We want them to be the most righteous among us. That's why these people have to transform themselves into angels of light or ministers of righteousness. They have to pretend like they're righteous. Otherwise it's not logical to put them in charge. It's not logical to put them in leadership. And so the Democrats always have to pontificate about how superior they are from a moral perspective even though they are the worst when it comes to morality, when it comes to ethics, when it comes to basically being a righteous person. Now go if you would to Mark chapter number seven. Mark chapter number seven. When we look at the Bible, we see that the Pharisees and the Sadducees are very similar to Democrats. And when we think about Democrats, their party positions are some of the most evil, just degrading type positions. I mean they advocate for full-term abortion. I mean what could be more sinister than just murdering a baby on its first day of life? I mean just its first breath and to look at a human baby and to try and lie to yourself and lie to everyone as if it's not a baby or it's not a real life. I mean this is a major Democrat position is full-term abortion. And they try to act like they're morally superior by saying, oh we're liberating women, we're empowering women, we love women. You guys that are against abortion, you hate women, you hate women's choice, you're so misogynistic. And they try to demonize their opposition when really they don't have any kind of moral leg to stand on. They act like they're so much better by giving homeless people and drug addicts free needles as if that's somehow a morally superior position to not giving them anything. You know saying like, hey we're not going to help you in your drug addiction. They think they're morally superior by helping them in their drug addiction. They're the group that's all for insider trading, but they won't talk about that. They push big pharma, but then at the same time they're like, oh we're here to save the planet. Save the planet? From what? You know and they all drive Teslas up and down. But it's like they don't realize that in order to produce Teslas or the electricity for Teslas, they're still burning lots of coal. I mean where do you think all that electricity is coming from? I mean it's got to come from somewhere and it's still coming from the coal producing plants, it's coming from these other things. They always want to talk about renewable energy, but they have all these big talking points, but they actually are hypocrites when you study the facts on these issues. They're not really using renewable source of energy and those things are kind of just big talking points that they don't really have any facts on. They don't have a real plan for. You know they really support the AIDS community, but I'm thinking like how is that a morally superior position? You know when you look at the Democrat position, it's just like everything that Satan could dream of. Death, disease, drugs. I mean worshipping the creature more than the creator who is blessed forever, amen. I mean just anything, there's a straight talking point from the Bible. You know veganism, I'm just kidding. Well at least if you say that you can't eat meat. I mean that's a doctrine of devils in the New Testament. You know it's like these Democrats and they act like they're morally superior to you because they won't eat bacon or something like that. And it's like you're not better than me. You're not better than me for deciding that you won't eat meat. You know oh you're so brutal and mean to animals. And it's like well they taste good. Don't tell me how brutal I am to animals while you're murdering babies. I mean they'll vacuum a baby up, but then they get so mad about you slicing a heifer and eating it. And it's like these people are just insane. And even the Democrats, they get all the Hollywood actors and actresses, the whores and the whoremongers of this world to put forth their agenda. I saw recently videos like Nicole Kidman and some of these other actors like eating bugs. Who's seen this video that I'm talking about? It's the weirdest thing, they're like eating bugs and they're like trying to push this on us. And I'm just like how is it cool to like kill a bug, but you can't kill a cow. I'm like I'm going to kill the cow and the bug, but I'm not going to eat the bug, okay. And then I'm going to save the baby. But these people, they have these bizarre platforms that they stand on all while saying that they're just so much better than the Republicans and they're so much better than everybody else and they're better than libertarians and they're better than Christians and whatever party positions they want to take. Or they'll say that they're not racist. But here's the problem, the Democrats are the most racist group of people there are. I mean Joe Biden is super racist. Just look at his history. I mean he said that Obama was like the most articulate black guy he's ever seen in his life. He said he was like the first one. And I'm thinking like did he come out of a vacuum? You know like there was no smart black people ever before Obama and then all of a sudden he comes onto the scene or something. It's like this guy is extremely racist and this party just wants to constantly talk about how superior they are when in fact they're really just projecting how wicked and evil they are onto everybody else. Now in Mark chapter number 7 this is going to kind of help translate into the spiritual. So we kind of have an understanding of what the Democrats are like. What are the spiritual Democrats like? They're the same. They have no real righteousness. They don't have any real morals. So in an effort to basically project how morally superior they are to you they make things up. And this is kind of the difference. It's like oh well are you saving the planet? Are you recycling? And you're just like no. When I have something plastic I throw it in the landfill slot. You're like what? How are you going to save the ducks? I eat them. And look I'm not 100% against recycling but just because the Democrats rub it in my face I'm like I'm just not even going to recycle now. Like I don't even care. And they're just like oh you're going to destroy the planet. No you're destroying the planet by promoting AIDS. By murdering babies. Like you don't even understand how insignificant throwing plastic in the trash is in comparison to what you're doing. You're just a giant hypocrite is what you are. And this is like what the Pharisees were with Jesus and his disciples. They basically have to make up moral righteousness to try and pontificate how they're better than everybody else. Look at Mark chapter 7 verse 1. So the Pharisees look at the disciples eating without washing their hands and they're like this guy's so unclean. So filthy. They found fault with him. So notice where this is coming from. It's not coming from the Bible. It's coming from a man-made idea and tradition that they've made up. Verse 4. And many other things there be which they have received to hold as the washing of cups and pots, brazen vessels and of tables. Then the Pharisees and scribes asked him why walk not by disciples according to the tradition of the elders but eat bread with unwashing hands. So they're basically they don't eat anything until they wash all their hands and these cups and the pots. Everything has to be crystal clean. It's funny to me. It makes me think of when I go to Whole Foods and there's a bunch of faggots in there and they're so worried about organic food while they literally get AIDS. And I'm like you can wash that cup all you want, buddy. You can have as many non-GMOs as you want and you're still going to die 20 years younger because you really don't even understand cleanliness. Now it says here that they're bringing accusation against Jesus' disciples. Verse 6. So notice when Jesus Christ, his guys are basically being rebuked, he doesn't like rag on them. He defends them. I mean look, this is what's weird about this or silly about what they do is the Pharisees they take a good idea and they make it bad doctrine. Is it really a bad idea to wash your hands before you eat? No. I think most of us, a lot of us probably do wash our hands a lot of times before we eat or we wash our hands on a regular basis. If you don't, I'm not judging you. But a lot of people like to wash their hands, they wash their cups, they wash their plate. I mean obviously washing things, not a bad idea. But here's what's bad is forcing that as doctrine on other people and making it such an important issue when there's so many other issues that are way more important. And then accusing them of being wicked, evil or filthy or disgusting when technically it's a preference not really found in Scripture. And they bring all this accusation and Jesus is basically rebuking them saying you guys are hypocrites, you pretend like you care about me so much but really you don't at all. And he says that you're teaching things that are not really in the Bible, they're just what you guys believe. There are things in this world that are commandments of men. What's a commandment of men? It's when the world, society, California or the United States makes up rules that are not found in the Bible. These are commandments of men. Now of course when it comes from a legitimate authority, we're still supposed to obey those type of things. We're supposed to obey our parents. We're supposed to obey the local law of the land and things like that. But there could be certain customs, there could be just certain rituals or traditions or things that go with a certain society or culture that you say, you know what, I'm not going to abide by that because that's just what man thinks. I'm going to make sure that this is where I'm abiding. I'm going to let the Bible be my boundaries specifically. He says here in verse number 8, For laying aside the commandment of God ye hold the tradition of men as the washing of pots and cups and many other such like things ye do. And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God that ye may keep your own tradition. So now he's going to bring up an example of where they're a giant hypocrite, where they basically toss aside God's commandments and then hold to a particular tradition that they have. Verse 10, For Moses said, Honor thy father and thy mother, and whoso curseth father and mother, let him die the death. Sounds like Jesus is pretty pro-death penalty if you ask me. Verse 11, But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or his mother, it is Corban. That is to say, A gift. By whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me, he shall be free. And ye suffer him no more to do aught for his father or his mother. Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered and many such like things to you. So Jesus is saying this is one example, but they do a lot of things like this. But in this particular example what's happening is the Bible clearly says in the Ten Commandments that you're supposed to honor thy father and thy mother. And there's a lot of applications of this verse. Of course we typically think of respect. You know, just being respectful to your parents, listening to your parents, hearkening to your parents, obeying your parents. But there's another layer here that honor can also be in relation to financial benefit. So sometimes people get what's called an honorarium. And what that means is you're like paying them for a particular service. So additionally the Bible teaches that children are actually supposed to pay for their parents. You can go to First Timothy, chapter number five, and it makes it abundantly clear that if your parents are in need, you should financially support them since they financially supported you for a lot longer. And they change your diapers, okay? So that's worth its weight in gold. But if a parent in this scenario, Jesus is bringing up a scenario where an elderly couple is essentially talking to their child. They have need of money or goods or something like that. And of course back then they didn't have fake monopoly money. They actually trade in commodities like cattle, chicken, things that actually have value. So if they needed some money, they would say, hey, can I have this particular cow or can I have a chicken or a goat or whatever? And essentially the child would say, oh, no, no, it's Corbin. Now what does that mean? He's saying it's a gift. Now the gift was to the Lord is what they're insinuating. They're essentially saying that, oh, no, no, you can't have that cow. It's dedicated to God. And it's like, oh, okay. Because no parent would steal from the Lord or would take money from God. So basically they say all you have to do, if your parents come and ask for anything, you just say, no, that's dedicated to God, I can't give that to you. And then they don't have to help their parents. They don't have to give them anything. And he's saying you're basically just rejecting the commandment of God by making it where children don't actually have to honor thy father and their mother. And he's like, you guys are giant hypocrites. Because think about it, they're also lying. That one thing wasn't devoted to God. They're not even actually going to give that money to the Lord. They're just lying to their parents so that they don't have to give them any kind of money, all while also pretending like they're super spiritual. Like, look at this wonderful present I'm giving to the Lord. I'm so spiritual and so much mightier than you are. And of course at the same time they're being super wicked by disobeying God's commandments, not honoring their father and mother, not doing good under their father and mother. And they just make up their own righteous standards to think that they're better than everyone. This is the Jews. I mean, if you understand the Talmud and their religion, they think that they're better than everyone based on their man-made rules, wearing their funny little hat, eating kosher, not having cheese on their burger. That doesn't make you better. That makes you sad. Not eating bacon. That just makes you sad. All of their rules and all of their little things of trying to pretend like they're so much better and so much more wonderful, but at the end of the day they're not any more righteous. And, you know, it makes me think of how there's a lot of pastors out there who preach against other pastors and they'll basically make up their own set of rules that aren't even found in the Bible and pretend like they're morally better than them or more righteous than them. And one of those instances is how I've heard a lot of pastors making it a big deal that, oh, the new IFB is always railing on people, is what they'll say, but what they're really referring to is them rebuking people or making memes. And they'll be like, oh, these pastors, they're just so evil and so wicked because they make memes and they make fun of people. I'm thinking, like, where in the Bible does it say, don't make fun of someone? Like, what's the chapter and verse like, a lion is the sorcerer, don't make fun of him. Judas Iscariot, he's off limits, don't put a meme with him on it. Where's memes in the Bible? Right? Or they'll talk about certain words as being cuss words. And here's the thing, they'll typically throw words in there that are found in your Bible. Bastard, piss. And they'll be like, oh, I'm so much more righteous than this pastor because I don't use the word piss and ass from the pulpit. It's like, that doesn't make you more righteous. All the while, these same pastors, you know what they do? They rail and slander pastors regularly so they full well reject the commandment of God and not have filthy communication or corrupt communication proceeding from their mouth all the while projecting on other people about how evil they really are. Oh, well, they made memes about me. But was it true? It's like, but it was meme. It's so meme-spirited. It's like, the truth isn't mean. Look, the only reason why a meme is good is because it's true. When people put up memes and it doesn't make any sense or no one laughs is because it wasn't true. Because here's the thing, you cannot contain yourself if something's funny, you will laugh. And it's only based on if it's true or not. And if it's not true, you won't laugh. You might laugh at the person like, that was a bad joke. Like, I don't even get what this person's doing. But if it's really true, that's why it's so funny. And that's why the left can't meme. Democrats can't meme. And let me tell you something, spiritual democrats can't meme either. When you see these guys getting mad at other pastors for memeing, you know what it is? It's because they can't meme. It's because they don't have any truth on their side. And so they're just envious of the fact that they don't have any real truth. So they have to knock other people down. And they have to falsely accuse you of railing or slandering, even though they don't even know what that means. Go if you would to Proverbs, chapter number 12. Proverbs, chapter number 12. But I'm telling you something, we should be cutting off occasion from the sinful spiritual democrats. Because, you know what, them railing and slandering is not okay. So we should rebuke them. We should make fun of them. And we should try to get them cut off for what they're doing, because that's not right. Just like the Pharisees should be cut off. Hey, the spiritual Pharisees should be cut off too. And say, hey, it's not right for you to rail. It's not right for you to slander. It's not right for you to reject the commandments of God. Oh, but you made a meme. Who cares, because that's not found in your Bible, buddy. It's like, oh, these guys, they ate some food without washing their hands. So be it. You know what, that's not the big issue here. The big issue is what God said. And notice that Jesus Christ defended his disciples when they ate without washing their hands. Why? Because it's not found in the scriptures. And you know what, Jesus doesn't really sit here and get super mad at you for breaking man-made rules. He gets mad at you for breaking his rules. And how is it that these Pharisees, they're so mad about rule-breaking, but only theirs, not Jesus's? Not the word of God. You know how these pastors, these same people, you know, they get so mad at you using the word bastard, not in the right context. But then they'll have another pastor get up and preach a pen of your sins, and they don't even care. Oh, well, you took him out of context. Well, you have to understand, he meant it in a good way. He taught false doctrine accidentally. Oh, I accidentally said bastard then. I mean, how do you get all this grace for preaching work salvation, but then you don't get any grace for not washing your hands before you eat, right? Or saying something that you just don't like the way he said it. Well, is it true, though? I mean, where in the Bible did God get mad at someone? He's like, hey, I know what you said was true, but I just didn't like the way you said it. Jeremiah, that was a little mean. Isaiah, did you really have to say it that way? I mean, did you really have to say it's like dung in their faces and stuff like that? I mean, did you have to use the word dung? Dung, I mean, come on. I mean, I don't see that in the Bible anywhere. And of course, the spiritual democrats, they're a major in things that aren't in the Bible. But you know what they're a minor in? The Bible. They don't really understand the scripture, and because they actually are very sinful and they don't have any real righteousness, they have to make standards to pretend like they're more righteous than everybody else. Well, I know that I'm better than this pastor because I don't use cuss words behind the pulpit. Who cares? I mean, does that really qualify you as pastor? Oh, you don't use cuss words. Oh, wow, you're so much better than everybody else. I mean, that doesn't make good preaching, though. Preaching sucks. You rail and slander, but you didn't use a cuss word. Good job, buddy. Way to go. Here's your medal, your participation trophy. You know, that doesn't matter at all. I'd rather it be the best sermon with the most choice words you can imagine than zero, and it wasn't even scriptural. In fact, to me, the biggest thing when it comes to preaching is, is it true or not? I mean, this is supposed to be the house, the pillar and ground of the truth. The most important thing is that it's true. Everything else is, like, kind of secondary when it comes to any issue. And, of course, the sinful want to always project how much more righteous they are than us, but at the same time, you know, those that are truly righteous don't go around bragging about how righteous they are. That's why the Bible makes fun of people called the holier than thou's. Stand by thyself, for I am holier than thou art. You know, I've seen people literally post online recently about how they're more righteous than people in the new IAB, and I'm just thinking, like, how do you brag about being a holier than thou? I mean, talk about spiritual blindness. You know, the Democrats love to brag about how much more generous and how much more loving and how much more kind they are and how they're not racist, and pretty much everything they say they're not is exactly what they are. That's right. Yeah. Now, here's a second group that's in this spiritual Democrat group. Not only is it the sinful, but second point is it's the slothful. They are the slothful. And when we talk about Democrats, they love giving other people's money away. I mean, I think someone did research on this, and it was like Joe Biden, in his entire life or something, has given less than $1,000 to charity. It's like, but he loves giving your money to charity. He loves giving your money to his son to go buy crack or LSD or whatever it is, buy more whores or something like that. I mean, it's bizarre how these people love to pontificate about how much greater they are and how much harder working they are when they're really the most slothful. And, in fact, a lot of these Democrats are lifelong politicians, meaning they've never worked in their life. They never actually did anything with their hands. All they did was just take bribes. They're good at taking bribes and lying. That's the two things that they're good at. I mean, this is really just everyone that's in this party, politicians, the media, and Hollywood. All they do is take money to lie and pretend to be something that they're not. I mean, why do you think that they want to put so many actors into these positions of power? Because they're the best at taking money and lying and pretending to be something that they're not. I mean, of course, plug and play an actor because it's like, hey, where's someone so morally bankrupt that they'll say literally anything for money? Let's go to Hollywood. Where's the Jew at? It's like, plug and play, the guy that's morally bankrupt will just say anything. And, of course, throughout history, the Jews have been some of the laziest people to ever exist. And I'm not talking about spiritual Jews. I'm talking about physical Jews. I'm talking about that of Judaism. Now, of course, ethnicity doesn't really matter. But religiously, those that are of the religion, Judaism, are the laziest people. Why do you think they got kicked out of so many nations? Because they don't actually make money legitimately. They only make money through crime, sin, stealing. That's basically their mottos, is they basically just steal. They steal through inflation. You know, they've been kicked out of all kinds of countries for clipping coins, which is literally just shave the coin and just get money and just make new money out of it. Or through interest. And some of the interest has been like 20% and 25% and 60%. They basically just will bankroll both sides of a conflict, of a war, and then they just charge just exorbitant amounts of interest to both parties. And they constantly were getting kicked out throughout history through all these nations because of their interest practices. You know, it's not like they're actually producing a product. They're simply just giving money out in exchange for more money. They're not actually really doing anything with their hands, working hard, being honest, being fair, being generous. You know, a generous person gives you money and does not expect any usury in return. That's why the Jews and the bankers and everything, they're not generous people. Of course, banks like to pretend like they're generous, but they're not generous at all. Just owe them money and you'll find out how generous they are pretty quickly. Look at Proverbs 12, verse 24. The hand of the diligent shall bear rule, but the slothful shall be under tribute. Here's another problem. When you have a bunch of people advocating for these positions, they're going to be heavily taxed. Whenever you find a group of people that like the Democrats, they're going to be more heavily taxed than the other group or the other party. Why? Because when you're just lazy, everyone's going to take advantage of you. Everyone's going to basically put their hand into that jar of money and take from you. You know, essentially, if you want to take back your own freedom, you have to do things yourself. If you let everyone do everything for you, eventually you'll run out of money. You'll run out of goods. And notice that the slothful, they end up becoming under tribute. You know, in America specifically, we get more heavily taxed every year. I mean, it's just been a downward spiral of taxes on our population, on this country. Specifically, even this state is very heavily taxed. In fact, I've heard about a lot of companies that have left California specifically just because of how much they're being taxed by the government here. And you know what? That's a legitimate concern for a business owner that's trying to make money, trying to survive, trying to keep employees on the bankroll. You know, that he gets all this oppression, all this tax. But you know why? It's because they're typically lazy. When people are lazy, they're going to be more heavily taxed. If people were not lazy, they would concern themselves with information, with knowledge. They would understand who's going into positions of power. They would actually stand up and vote. I mean, how many people do you even think in California are an educated voter? They know all the people on the ballot. They know all the positions. They know what they're standing for. They understand economic policy. They understand stimulus. I mean, in fact, most people, it's like, hey, we're going to give everybody these big stimulus checks. Everybody's like, give me one. I'll take two. Not realizing what that's going to do to inflation, not realizing what that's going to do to the economy. It's just like, free money? Where do I sign? Not realizing that when they give you a check for $1,000, they're giving themselves a check for $100,000 in the process. And of course, I don't even think elections or any of that stuff is real, okay? It's all rigged. But what I am saying is even if it was real, the voter base is so uneducated, it's so slawful, it's not paying attention that it's just going to let evil, wicked people take advantage of them. And this state is no different than any other state in the United States. Our voter bases are just letting these politicians and letting our government take advantage of us because we're too lazy to care about it. I mean, they just basically, they destroyed 9-11, the Twin Towers, and Building 7, and America's too lazy to care about it. We just let the Patriot Act come in. We just let our Second Amendment rights be taken from us. We just let everything just be taken from us and stripped from us because we're just too lazy to care. And pretty soon we'll be under such heavy tribute, under such heavy oppression as a nation, as a civilization, it will be literal communism. I mean, we're already kind of going down that road. But if Americans don't wake up and don't actually educate themselves and work hard, hey, communism's ready to take over. Why do you think it is that so many nations before us have gone to communism? It's through the door of apathy. It's through the door of being slawful and lazy. And you know what fights at that? Christianity. Christianity says, hey, we're not going to be lazy. We're not going to be slawful. We're not going to just let everybody take advantage of us. Hey, we're going to work hard. We're going to be diligent. We're going to invent things. We're going to be creative. We're going to go out and change the culture. We're going to teach people righteousness. And you know what? That combats that wicked element of slawfulness creeping into society and turning it into a communist nation. Look at the world that we live in today. The most communist nations are where Christianity is not allowed. Why? Because Christianity will completely change the culture of any area. And these Democrats want to bring in, they want to bring in slawfulness through what, TikTok? Just TV, movies. I mean, basically, I mean, you go to the movie theater now, you get to sit in a La-Z-Boy chair. They'll give you food. I mean, do they give you a belly rub? I don't even know. It's like, I mean, it's just like, how, how slawful can you be? I mean, do they roll you back to your car, like on a cart or something? I mean, I'm just thinking like, this is America where it's just like, we can't even walk, you know, to the seat or anything. I mean, everything is just so slawful and so lazy in our country today. You know what? That's going to put you under heavy tribute. Go to Proverbs 21, go to Proverbs 21. And because of these Democrats, they literally accomplished nothing. I mean, what has Joe Biden accomplished in his presidency? And I'm not saying, like, he's obviously done a lot of things, but I'm just saying, like, what's something that he created? What's something that he invented? He didn't create that. He just made it worse. The Jews created inflation, OK? Get it right. I mean, like, did he build a bridge? Did he get a new program going? I mean, like, how can you be the president of the United States and literally accomplish nothing? He can barely even give a speech that was written for him. He can barely breathe right. I mean, this guy can't accomplish anything. And, you know, the Democrat Party, all they do is destroy things. They take things that are already built and made and they basically destroy them, suck all the life out of it. I mean, think of it just like a child. They have the child. All they do is destroy the child, don't they? And they destroy society and they just ruin things. They don't invent or create anything. The Democratic Party is just literally cockroaches on our society. I mean, when have you ever thought, like, oh, that cockroach did a good job today? The cockroach, you know, built something good. I mean, they're just parasites. And look, there are certain people in our society that are just parasites. It is the Democratic Party. Look what it says in Proverbs 21, verse 25. The desire of the sloth will kill them, for his hands refuse to labor. When I look at the Democrats, it is a group that I think they refuse to labor. And you look at our society, it seems like we have a society of people that refuse to labor. I mean, everyone's hiring, especially where I am in Texas. I mean, it is every business you walk in. I mean, there's just a sign just hiring and they'll be like $500 bonus. It was like Domino's Pizza, and it was like $500 bonus to work there. And I'm like, it's because no one wants to work at Domino's. But I'm just thinking, like, they can't hire anyone. No one wants to work anymore. There's just this entitlement attitude where people just go to work and they just expect to get paid and pampered. And, like, if someone gives them a job that they don't want to do, like, well, I don't want to do that. It's like, I'm paying you. But because the worker shortage is so bad, employers are like bending over backward and they're like, OK, don't quit. You know, we'll put you somewhere else. And just everything is going downhill. Less customer service. Everything's deteriorating. Things are waxing worse. The customer is not always right anymore. Why? Because they can't hire anybody. They can't. And it's just like we live in a generation of people that refuse to labor. Look at Proverbs 22, verse 13. The slothful man said there's a lion without. I shall be slain in the streets. Not only do they refuse to labor, they make excuses about everything. Oh, well, I'm afraid of getting a disease, getting covid or something so I can't come to work now. Or I'm just I'm just so afraid of crime out there so I can't come into work or gas prices are going up. So I can't afford to drive to work anymore. Or, you know, my back kind of hurts. I can't lift that or I mean, they just it's just excuses about everything. You know, you're you're a slothful person if you just make excuses about everything. The men of God never made excuse. God's like, hey, no, a building art. Oh, my back hurts. I mean, I mean, think about the task that God gave Noah. And he didn't give them any instructions. I mean, he didn't have an instruction manual. That's where we get it. OK, where men don't need instruction manuals. Noah, I mean, think about how many extra parts he had. He was just like, I don't even know what to do with that. I got a boat. You know, I got the job done and he got the job done. Didn't he? Amen. Right. You know, real men just get the job done. They're not just making excuses about everything. You know, the Democrats, they make excuses about everything. Well, we couldn't get it done because of Trump. Well, we can't do this because of January six. Well, we can't get this done because racism. We can't get this done because of white supremacists. Well, we can't do this. You know, they just have all these excuses. They basically don't really want to work hard. They're just slothful. And so they use their slothfulness. Go to Second Timothy, chapter number two. How about the spiritual Democrats? They're the same people. They refuse to work and they make excuses about everything. And they're just going to be under tribute. Now, in Second Timothy, chapter number two, the Bible says in verse 15 that the man of God says here, study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. You know, the man of God has no excuse for getting up and preaching heresy and preaching lies and preaching things that are wrong or just being ignorant of the Bible, because the Bible says you're supposed to study and so that you're approved to God, not even to man, but to God. So it's not like, well, I just have to convince you that what I'm saying is right. I have to convince God that what I'm saying is right. I have to make sure that the doctrines that I'm teaching line up with what God thinks. And of course, that's every man of God. That's every preacher. That's any time you get to preach. You want to make sure that what you're saying is what God said and that you're lining up with his doctrine. You know, there's a lot of people they want to preach, but they don't want to spend time studying. They don't want to spend the effort of getting on their knees and praying to God and asking for him to give them wisdom. They don't want to actually spend the time to read the Bible cover to cover. They don't want to actually then study it beyond that. They just want to go and get some cliff notes. They just want to type in a word and Bible software and just print out the 50 times that word is found in their Bible notes and then just preach that. Or they just want to lean upon Schofield or reference notes or what their buddies have said or what tradition has taught as opposed to actually learning themselves and studying themselves. I mean, I went to a church, an old IFB church is what I would call it. It was, you know, it's a good church for us. We liked it. But the thing that was frustrating is the pastor, every time he got up to preach, it felt like he just took like four commentaries and stirred them together and then just served it cold. And I'm thinking like, and, you know, the way I could tell that is because we had like our Easter service and it was like a big deal. And he's like, I'm not even going to preach the Easter service because I just don't feel qualified. I'm going to let our pastor emeritus come and preach. And I'm thinking like if there's one doctrine, the pastor should be okay on teaching. Shouldn't it be the gospel? Like I'm thinking like I can understand how a newer preacher or maybe someone that hasn't been pastoring very long. Maybe there are certain parts of the Bible they don't feel very comfortable preaching yet or there's things that they just don't feel comfortable like explaining or there's deeper things of end times Bible prophecy or there's some passages that they just haven't connected yet. I get that. Hey, there's plenty of parts of the Bible where I'm still saying like, you know, I don't know that I understand all this or maybe one day I'll understand this better. I get that. But if it's the gospel, you're not comfortable preaching the gospel. I'm thinking like, how lazy are you not to have studied the gospel? Or this, he gets up, he's like, well, I can't preach on end times. You know, I know it's pre-trib, but I'm going to bring in a specialist to teach it to you because I don't feel comfortable explaining it. You know, I don't feel comfortable explaining it because it's not in the Bible because you didn't study this to show yourself approved unto God. And of course, it's like the same group of people. They're just so lazy. So then they're under tribute. They have to pay for some other person to come in and teach the congregation. They have to pay for someone else to come and teach them false doctrine. Go to First Timothy chapter number one. And they're subject to the mafia, the old IFB pre-trib mafia because they're too lazy to actually study the Bible for themselves. So they just stay in darkness. They stay teaching bad doctrine. And you know what I noticed about a lot of these churches is they can't even fill their congregation. They can't even fill the pews anymore. Because they basically have been so just watered down. They've been like, here's the, you know, we've had the elders come and pass down the pre-trib doctrine and we must hold it very so carefully. And we can't deviate from it. And it's like, never mind just reading like Matthew 24 or reading Mark 13 or reading Luke 21 or understanding any of the Book of Revelation or studying like giant sections of the Bible. I mean it's not like the rapture is just a minor thing mentioned one time. I mean we're talking about tons and tons of verses, scores of chapters of the Bible dedicated to that topic. Tons of Old Testament pictures and they're just, they can't figure it out. They can't study it. They can't understand it. It's because they're just being lazy. First Timothy chapter number one, look at verse five. Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart and of a good conscience and of faith unfeigned, from which some having swerved have turned aside into vain jingling, desiring to be teachers of the law, understanding neither what they say nor wherever they affirm. There are people, there are pastors that get up and they have no idea what they're saying. It's a word salad. It is literally Biden behind the pulpit. I mean they're just, they're just using words and they have no idea what the words even mean. And they just have to pretend like they're so much smarter than everybody else. It makes me think of this guy named Jordan Peterson. This guy is a pseudo intellectual and he uses really big flowery language to disguise the fact that he's an idiot. The guy is a complete moron. He is a fool. He does not know what he's talking about. And of course he has to partner up with the Jew, Ben Shapiro, in the Daily Wire just to make it clear that he's never going to come to the truth. And I'm telling you something, a lot of people like this guy. A lot of people fall for these people, but this guy is a spiritual Democrat. Oh, but he's a conservative. Oh, Ben Shapiro's a conservative. No, but they're spiritual Democrats, my friend. And they're super wicked. And they're actually very lazy people. Because instead of actually getting any real knowledge, any real wisdom that comes from the scripture, they go to man's wisdom, which is a lazy wisdom. It's a slothful wisdom. It's not true wisdom. And you know what the Democrats, let's think about their logic. Men or women? Two plus two equals four is racist. I mean, that's their real logic today. I mean, how is that? And then you see the spiritual, it's like, oh, pre-trib. That's just as smart as men or women. I mean, they get up and say that the synagogue of Satan is God's chosen people. And you're just thinking, like, I mean, the guy that's, like, cursing the name of Jesus and, you know, involved in all kinds of debauchery and filth, that guy is the guy that is God's chosen? No, not at all. You know, they basically, they're so backwards on everything, and they're so blinded. And so because instead of working hard and studying, they just attack. Go to Luke chapter 13, go to Luke chapter 13. And you know what, some pastors are like this, too, where instead of just working hard and studying the Bible and becoming a good preacher, their only tactic is just to attack other good preachers. That's all they can do. And, you know, I always can tell a guy that actually knows the Bible well when he can preach a sermon without having to attack people. Now, here's the thing. I preach sermons where I attack others or I bring up things and I make fun of them. But that shouldn't be the only preaching that you do. You know, you should preach other parts of the Bible. You should preach wholesome sermons. You should point out Christ in the scriptures. You know, you'll notice that the preachers that can't do that, there's a problem with them. There's an issue with them when they never make spiritual applications. There's always these kernel applications, and they don't actually seem to care about people. Now, the Pharisees do this. Look at Luke chapter 13, verse number 11. And it's kind of similar to what we looked at earlier, but it says in verse number 11, And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could no wise lift up herself. And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity. And he laid his hands on her, and immediately she was made straight and glorified God. And the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because that Jesus had healed on the Sabbath day, and said unto the people, There are six days in which men ought to work. In them therefore come and be healed, and not on the Sabbath day. The Lord then answered him, and said, Thou hypocrite! Doth not each one of you on the Sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering? And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound? Lo, these eighteen years be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day? And when he had said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed, and all the people rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him. So Jesus points out these people get mad at a woman being healed on the Sabbath. Can you imagine you heal a person, and then people get mad about it? But this happens. There are literally people all over this country that hear the gospel from this mean-spirited preacher named Pastor Mejia, or Pastor Anderson. They get saved, then they go to a church in their area, and then that church is mad that they showed up, and mad it even seems like they got saved, because they got saved by Pastor Anderson. Or they got saved by Pastor Mejia, and they're like, You can't come here. You can't even be in here. Look, I hear testimonies all the time. People going into a church, wanting to be a blessing, wanting to get baptized, and preachers casting them out, not wanting to be there, not willing to baptize them, because of who got them saved. And it's just like this story where you see a woman literally getting healed before the Pharisees, and then they're mad about it. Oh, it was on the Saturday. And Jesus is like, It wouldn't matter what day. You wouldn't want to have been healed. And what a hypocrite. You would care for an animal over a woman? Over this woman that's been bound for 18 years? Showing what? They're so lazy, they would never help this woman ever. For 18 years straight, they've never helped this woman a single time. And you say, Well, they're not Jesus. But here's the thing. There was plenty of miracles and healings done in the Bible that weren't Jesus. What if these Pharisees are actually spiritful men of God, laying their hands on this woman, praying for her? What if they picked her up and dipped her in the Bethesda pool? I mean, it's not like there was no options here. But they wouldn't do anything to help this woman because they're lazy. Go to Matthew 23. Go to Matthew 23. Let's see what Jesus said about these people. These lazy Pharisees. Matthew 23. And look at verse number three. All therefore, whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do. But do ye not after their works, for they say and do not. Now, you know what that you call that person? Slothful. Lazy. Hey, I say, but I do nothing. Obviously, it's a hypocrite. But here's another thing. Aren't you pretty lazy when you're doing nothing? I talk about how I do all these works, but then I do absolutely nothing. Notice what it says. Verse four for they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be born and lay them on men's shoulders. But they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. Talk about lazy. He's saying these guys won't even lift a finger. They won't do anything. It's like, hey, go lift that 400 pound dumbbell. I'm not even lift my finger. I mean, that is what he's comparing it to. And these Pharisees, they're so lazy, they won't do anything. And, you know, there's pastors out there. It's like they won't know any of the Bible. They won't even lift a finger to turn the page. They won't even go to 1 Corinthians 5. They won't even read Matthew 24, verse 29. They skip that one. That's too hard of a verse to read. I mean, I went to a church. They preached the pre-trib doctrine for like four months straight. And half of the time we started in Matthew 24 for our reading. And they read verse 29 zero times. I thought they was trolling me. I mean, I was just like, what is happening? And I remember the pastor after one of the sermons, after he preached pre-trib, he's just like, no one could ever dispute or argue with anything I taught. I was just like, what is happening? Like, how can you even get there? But yet they won't even, you go up and you say, what does that verse mean? It's like, well, I don't know. What is this section of the Bible? They won't talk about it. They won't bring it up. Just, no, no, I don't want to talk about it. No, you should understand. He was a malefactor. You know, it's like, oh, the cussing is a sin. Well, can you give me a list of cuss words? No. It's like they can't even provide you any kind of real effort or energy. Well, what does this verse mean? Well, I don't want to explain that verse. I don't want to explain that situation. You know, that is the spiritual Democrat that refuses to lift a finger or do any kind of work or to study the Bible themselves. All they can do is just attack other people, give burdens to other people. Go to 2 Timothy, chapter number three. And you know what? Those are the type of people we should cut off. Someone that's too lazy to actually study the Bible should be cut off. Hey, if your pastor is not willing to preach the gospel of the congregation, he should be cut off. If he's too lazy to study what eschatology is even about, he should be cut off. I mean, if he's not going to explain to you the doctrine that he's teaching, he should be cut off. And you know what? We should identify the pastors and the preachers that are out there that are too lazy to actually study the Bible for themselves and say, this guy doesn't even understand what he's talking about and preach against them so they'll be cut off so that their mouths would actually stop. I mean, the guy that's getting up and saying repenting of your sins for salvation, I don't even know if the guy's saved. But even if he is, he should be cut off from preaching. I mean, how many times has a church had a visitor come in just one time? And you just want that one experience for him to hear a false gospel, a false plan of salvation? I mean, that should be unacceptable. You don't accidentally slip and just teach, like, oh, work's getting to heaven. Sorry, I tripped. Oops, you can lose your salvation. Sorry, I didn't mean to trip there. It's like you don't just accidentally teach work salvation. Yeah, you could accidentally say a wrong word or mess up a sentence or you can misspeak. I misspeak all the time. But I don't just accidentally teach heresy. I don't just, like, accidentally teach from the book of Enoch or something, like, oh, turn in Enoch real quick. I'm not going to actually slip in some Sharia or something like that. You know, that doesn't make any sense. That's something that doesn't even know what they're doing behind the wheel and you just cut them off. You know, I have a rule, like, I don't let flat earthers drive me anywhere. I'm serious. Like, if I'm going to ride with someone and I don't really know them, I'm just like, hey, do you believe the earth is flat? And if they said yes, I won't ride with them because they might drive me off the edge. You know what I mean? But what I'm saying is there are people out there that just shouldn't be in positions of authority or leadership. You know, there's certain things like you're not like Biden. Let's think about it. He's just not coherent enough to be the president. Like, even if you thought he was a good guy, he's not coherent enough. It doesn't make sense to put someone that's not cognitively able to think straight, form a sentence, to be the president of the United States. It doesn't make sense for someone to just preach all this weird junk, all this heresy, and be like, let's just leave him as pastor. Now, if you identify a pastor just preaching heresy after heresy after heresy, it's like, let's cut this guy off. Let's mark this guy. Let's say this guy shouldn't even be behind the pulpit. It doesn't really make any sense. And typically it's because they're too slothful to actually learn the Bible for themselves. Go over to 2 Timothy, chapter number 3, and look at verse number 1. 2 Timothy, chapter 3, verse 1, it says, In the form of godliness, but denying the power thereof, from such turn away. For of this sort are they which creep into houses and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lust. So we've learned about a couple groups of spiritual democrats. Number 1 is the sinful. Number 2 is the slothful. This is who the democrats are. And number 3 is silly women. If you were going to look at the democrat party, it is full of the most wicked people, the most lazy people, and women. And specifically the silly women. Now, what's interesting about this passage is we read that list and it's like a horrible list. Proud, boasters, unthankful, whatever. But then notice in verse 5 it says, having a form of godliness. Notice that these, the most wicked people, they always pretend about how godly they are, how righteous they are. Okay? And there's nothing more ungodly than the feminist movement which pretends like it's righteous. Like, oh, well you guys just hate women for not wanting them to be in positions of leadership. No, I actually love them and I want to protect them. Yeah, I'm not into AOC. I'm not into Nancy Pelosi. These are silly women. Especially AOC. I mean, that girl is crazy. Who put her in charge of anything? She was a bartender turned politician. And I would not ask her to make me a drink. I mean, this chick doesn't know anything. But of course this party, what it does is it puts forth these people that like to pretend how righteous they are when they have no righteousness at all. They pretend to be righteous. And of course the Democrats take advantage of silly women by trying to say they're going to empower them. They're going to try and make them strong or give them strength when really they strip all their strength away from them. Go to Judges, chapter number 5, Judges, chapter number 5. You know, taking a feminine woman and making her into a butch dyke doesn't make her strong. In fact, some of the strongest women in the Bible were very feminine. And of course, you know, because here's the thing, women can't compete with men at being a man. I mean, have you ever seen or heard women's sports? It's being dominated by trannies. And look, the trannies aren't even good at sports. It's not like LeBron's going in the WNBA. I mean, if LeBron was going in the WNBA, the other team wouldn't score. You think I'm joking. He would block every shot. Most of the women might get injured just trying to, like, guard him or anything. I mean, they're so much better. I mean, they just take a bum derelict that chopped off his nuts and they put him in there and he beats women. Why? Because women aren't men. But let me tell you something. That chopped off nuts dude can't compete at being a woman either. He's not a woman. He doesn't look attractive. You know, every guy's ugly. Sorry. I've never looked at a guy and thought, like, well, no, no, it's all really bad looking. All of you guys are just hideous to me, OK? And if you put a wig and a dress on, it'd be even worse. Not any better. You know, the only thing that's actually really attractive is women and especially a feminine woman. One who has long hair and is wearing a dress and is looking modest. Not a cheap looking whore either. That's not the most attractive thing. Men don't really desire that. That's just like, that's, you know, Whataburger, OK? It's open late. And the only reason people want to go there is because no one's in the line. Everybody's in and out, you know. Whataburger, it's open and there's no one in line and it's just like, I guess. But nobody's just like, I really want Whataburger. It's like, that's trash. OK? Now, here's the thing. The same goes with women. Women are greatly to be valued and they have a great honor and they're to be treasured. In fact, they're more valuable than any money. They're more precious than rubies. But you know what makes them precious? Being godly and feminine. Not trying to be like a man. Not trying to be Hillary Clinton. You know, Hillary Clinton's like one of the first women to ever wear pants in like a political arena. So all the women wearing pants, you get to be like your idol, Hillary Clinton. I mean, yay! You know, in the city of Houston, where I'm from in Texas, the first person to overthrow the city ordinances against cross-dressing, which enabled women to wear pants, was some faggot named Phyllis Frye. Some faggot walking around in a dress who got on the city council and like single-handedly voted, overturned, cross-dressing statutes in Houston is what enables women to dress like men. And it's like, you should go write him a thank you note for wearing your blue jeans on Saturday. It's like, that's stupid. You know, you're not going to look more manly than a man. There's no point. Why don't you just go ahead and do what God did for you and make you look feminine? I mean, every woman likes to wear the pretty wedding dress. Not the wedding trousers. There's a reason. Look, anytime there's an actual ad that they put out there that they're trying to actually seduce men, it's a girl with long hair and a dress. Or a skirt. It's not Hillary Clinton. It's not Nasty Pelosi, okay? It's not Ellen DeGeneres up there. And you're just like, oh, I really want to buy that. You're like, ah, what is that? That's gross. Everyone dislikes that. No one thinks that that's attractive. And you know, the really feminine women, they still have a lot of strength because they play to their strengths. Here's a woman that plays to her strengths. Jail in the Bible. Look at Judges 5, verse 25, and this is recounting what she did. He asked water and she gave him milk. Talk about customer service. She brought forth butter in a lordly dish. So she served this guy better than anybody's ever been served. She served him up a nice warm dish of milk and butter. Verse 26, she put her hand to the nail and her right hand to the workman's hammer and with the hammer she smote Sisera. She smote off his head. When she had pierced and stricken through his temples. But you know what, if he had showed up and said like, hey, can I have some water? And she's like, what kind of misogynist are you? They'd be like, I'm going to another tent. I don't want to be talked like this, right? But she was real feminine. She seduced him, brought him in, and then, man, she just brought the hammer. She just smote his head off. Hey, she was strong. You know what made her strong? Playing to her strengths of being feminine. Of being a servant. And you know what, there's nothing wrong with being a servant. Jesus Christ came in the form of a servant. And you know what, he played to his strengths of being humble. He played to his strengths of being a servant. He didn't go around and just force things to happen. He allowed them to come to him. And you know what, sometimes that's a real tactic when it comes to warfare, it comes to these different things, is let your enemy come to you and then you just smote off his head. But you know what, we need some women today that have no problem being feminine and smiting off the enemy's head. Hey, smite off the head of that TV. Smite off the head of that Hollywood music today. Smite off the head of the sisters that are out there. They're trying to pervert your family and corrupt your family, sneaking in there. Hey, we need women to be feminine and strong at the same time. We don't need them to be men. And we definitely don't need men to be women. Go if you would to 1 Samuel chapter 22, 1 Samuel 22. I'm going to finish here. But look, you know, there's a lot of women that are in this feminist movement and what they like to do is they like their voice to be heard. So they like to blow off their mouth. But you know, the Bible makes it clear that women are supposed to be meek and quiet. And they're not even supposed to preach. You know, the Joyce Myers of this world, they're not going to change America for the good. They're making it horrible. And you know what, the godly Christian women, if you want to make a big impact in this world, it's not through making your voice be heard through screaming and yelling and teaching. You know what, it's your voice saying yes, sir, to your husband. You know, Vashti made a big impact on women by rebelling against her husband. Esther made a big impact by obeying her husband. And she saved all the people in her entire, you know, heritage, the Jews, by being meek, by being quiet, and by being obedient to her husband. She saved a whole nation. Don't tell me that, oh, obeying your husband just puts women down. Look, she was the strongest person on the planet, arguably. I mean, she's married to the strongest man, but you know what, she's got him wrapped around her little finger. Why? Because she knows that if she's obedient to her husband, if she serves her husband, she can play her cards right and she can have whatever she wants when it comes to requests. And she's going to make one of the most important requests ever to save all of her people. You know what, the hand that rocks the cradle rules the world. And let me tell you, the next generation of leaders are going to all have been birthed by a woman. All of them. Every man in leadership today was birthed by a woman. And you know what, that woman had the single greatest impact on that child's life. I personally believe that my wife has a bigger impact on my children than I ever will. And you constantly read that through the scripture. If you study the kings of the Israel or Judah, you know there's always the most important character is the mother. Because you have a lot of them have the same dad, but then they're way different. It's like, why are they way different? Because who their mother was. Who was the mom in that relationship had a bigger impact than who the dad was. Now I'm not saying that dads don't have a big impact. Of course dads need to be present in their children's lives. But what I'm telling you is that mom is so crucial. Think about Timothy. I mean when we look at the faith, it's not even attributed to the masculinity on the side of his family. It's attributed to his grandmother and to his mother. Eunice and Lois. I mean it's not even attributed to his father. His father was like a half Greek or something, you know. It's like, there's Greek, so Timothy's half Greek. So it's like, we don't even know if his father was saved. We don't even know if his father was spiritual. But you know, his mother being spiritual turned a great man of God to do big things to the Lord. And why can't women say, you know what, I want to have a giant impact in this world by raising the next generation of preachers. Instead of being a preacher, preach to your boys at home and then in 20 years you can hear all that preaching back. You say like, hey, my wife writes my sermons. Well, you know, my mom wrote my sermons. Right? Because whatever the mom preached to you when you're raised, then when you get old you're going to start preaching all that stuff. It's like, hey, I want to preach the sermons. Well, start writing the sermons for your boys. Start teaching them the Word of God. Start, you know, think about it in Proverbs. King Lemuel. The prophecy that his mother taught him. I mean, Proverbs 31, some of the greatest preaching in the Bible is coming from a mother. But you know what she didn't do? She didn't go start some big platform and chop her hair off and get a pantsuit and say, hey, everybody look at me. You know what she did? She humbly served in the home and taught her child and then let her child raise up and in the proper role, in the proper place, get up and preach the Bible. And you know, I'll tell you what, these spiritual Democrats, they let women teach because they are too scared to teach themselves. Why are we letting women teach us? Why are we letting women lead us? You know, the Republican Party seems doomed to me because while we're kicking on the Democrats, let's kick on the Republicans for a minute. Most of the recent candidates are women. And I'm thinking like, OK, Joe Biden bad. A woman politician replacing him, not better. You know, you kind of like people are thinking like, I hope Joe Biden dies. And it's like, Kamala. You don't even know what the next pharaoh is like. This pharaoh could be worse. But I'm telling you something, I would never vote for a woman politician. I will not support a woman politician. Oh, major Taylor Green or whatever. Marjorie Taylor Green. She's a conservative. She's on info wars. She's a woman. She's not going to fix this country. You know, it's like this. I think that in Arizona, it's like Carrie Lake or something like that is running for governor. And she's like, she's going to stand strong. And it's like, no. She's a woman. I don't care that she has a short haircut. She was in the news media. She was endorsed by Obama a few years ago. You're going to tell me that she's going to rule the nation. She's going to turn everybody to righteous. And look, yeah, when all men fail, sometimes you have a Deborah that's just left alone that's still a godly person and people come to her and she gives good advice. There's nothing wrong with that. You know what's wrong? All the men that weren't there to answer the call. It shows that all the men were weak cowards. You know, there's nothing wrong with a woman standing her ground, doing what's right, stepping up to the plate. What's wrong is all the men that made her do that. All the women that were too cowardly to stand up and defend that woman so she didn't have to do that job. You know, and it's sick how many men today let women just run our country because they're too cowardly to stand up to silly women. Men are too afraid to stand up to AOC. Men are too afraid to stand up to Hillary Clinton. Men are too afraid to stand up to nasty Pelosi. But I'm telling you, you know what? We need men to stand up and say, get back in the kitchen and make me a sandwich. And you know what? Some pastors need to tell their wives to do that. These spiritual Democrats. And you know, when you call them on the carpet, they act like women. Because you know what women do is when they lose an argument, instead of appealing to logic, they appeal to emotion, don't they? They're like, oh, you're hurting my feelings. Oh, you're so mean. Because look, let's be real. Men are more logical than women. Women are a little bit more emotional. And when you notice guys getting emotional, you're like, are you a man? Like, why are you playing this victim card? Why are you getting all emotional? Why are you raising your voice? Why are you screaming? Why are you telling me that your feelings matter? Feelings don't matter. Truth matters. Well, I just, it felt mean. You know, when these pastors get up and say, I know what he said was right, but I just didn't like the way he said it, you sound like a woman. Because that's what I would expect my wife to say or something. And not my wife, because my wife actually likes hard preaching. But I'm just saying, like, I would expect a woman to say that. Right? Where it's like, well, my wife just doesn't like exactly the words he used or how he said it. I know it's right. But you know what? That's not what men should be like. Men should only care if it's true. You know, a weak man that's kind of like this is, I think, of Saul. Go to 1 Samuel chapter 22, where he kind of plays this victim card, right? 1 Samuel chapter 22, look at verse number 7. Then Saul said unto his servants that stood about him, Hear now, ye Benjamites, will the son of Jesse give every one of you fields and vineyards, and make you all captains of thousands and captains of hundreds, that you have all conspired against me? And there is none that showeth me that my son hath made a league with the son of Jesse? And there is none of you that is sorry for me? Or showeth unto me that my son hath stirred up my servant against me to lie awake? Is that the day? It's like, dude, grow a pair. Like, what? No, but are you guys not sorry for me? Like, how embarrassed would you be that that's your leader? The captain of your army? You guys aren't sorry for me? You know, David's so mean, and my son's so mean. Did you see the memes they made about me? It's like, they were hilarious, man. You know, all the guys are just kind of like, yeah, we did. No, sir, no, we didn't see it. They're like, no, we're not watching the new IFB. You know they are. Hey, hi. You know they're watching. Oh, no one feels bad for me. No, no one does. No one cares. You spirits will Democrat you. You know, you're just acting like a silly woman. Quit letting your emotions play so big a role. You know, men need to go ahead and put their emotions on check. You know, we teach men, we teach little boys to man up to not cry about everything. And it seems like we have a whole generation of little boys that need to be told to stop crying and actually man up. Stop crying about everything and actually do some work. Stop crying about everything and blaming everybody else and get the job done. Quit crying about everything and quit crying about women being in control of everything. You know, I hate the stupid men going their own way movement. Just tell me you're weak. I'm so afraid to marry a woman that's going to tell me what to do. I'm not because I'm going to tell her what to do. That was easy. Well, but what if she doesn't obey me? She will. How do you know? Because I'm a man. Well, but you know, women out there, they just have so much power. Well, then take it back. I mean, didn't the mother dilemma say, give not thy strength unto women? Why are you just handing over your man card and just saying, here, please take it? No, no, I'm going to go ahead and take that back. I'm going to go ahead and make sure that I'm the one in charge. I'm the ruler. I'm the leader. And of course, you lead on softly lead on gently. But at the end of the day, you know, it's silly for men to think that women have so much power over them. You know, we need men in this country to stand up again, and we need spiritual men to stand up. Stop acting like women. Stop letting women tell them what to do. You know, bring your wife to church. You know, go get a girl saved and bring her into this church. You say, well, there's no women for me to date here. Yeah, there's a bunch of ugly dudes. Go somewhere else. This is church. Okay. Go out there. It's California. I thought it was the California girls. You can't find one attractive girl out there. I thought we raised our hands and realized nobody was independent from a Baptist when they were a child in here anyways. So go get one that's dancing like a binge. You know, be a Benjaminite. Go grab one that's dancing. Bring her in here and quit crying and be like, sorry for me. I can't find a woman. Well, not with that attitude. No one wants to come to my church. No one wants to listen to my sermons. Well, start preaching good sermons. Stop whining and complaining. Everybody's making fun of me. Yeah, it's real easy, buddy. Stop being so easy to be made fun of. You say, what's the point of the sermon? Look, the point of the sermon is identify the people that should be cut off. We need to cut off the sinful. We need to cut off the slothful and we need to cut off the silly women. And we need to cut off all the people that are acting like them. You know, and stop giving them attention. Stop letting them just run their mouths. We need to take back authority and we need to preach against these people. And you know what? We shouldn't be scared about it. And we should stand behind the men that are actually going to be real leaders in this country. Let's close in prayer. Thank you, Heavenly Father, for this church. Thank you so much for Pastor Mejia and his congregants. I pray that you would just encourage them and strengthen them that no matter what foes come their way, that they would just have the strength to just cut that off. And that they would have the strength to stand on the Bible. And they would just be men today. We'd let men be men and we'd let women be women. And we'd have our proper roles and our proper places. And I pray that you would just bless all the families in this room, in this church. You'd help them be a bright and shining light in this sinful and dark generation. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen. Please turn your songbooks to song number 15. Song number 15, lead me to Calvary. That's our last song here. Song number 15. All together nice and strong on that first verse. King of my life, I'm crowning now. Thine shall the glory be. Lest I forget thy heart, crown and crown. Lead me to Calvary. Lest I forget Gethsemane. Lest I forget my agony. Lest I forget thy love for me. Lead me to Calvary. Show me the tomb where thou wast slain. Tenderly more dead well. Angels with robes of white arrayed. Burdening walls thou slant. Lest I forget Gethsemane. Lest I forget my agony. Lest I forget thy love for me. Lead me to Calvary. Lend me a merry through the gloom. Come live and give to me. Show to me now the empty tomb. Lead me to Calvary. Lest I forget Gethsemane. Lest I forget my agony. Lest I forget thy love for me. Lead me to Calvary. May I be willing, Lord, to bear daily my cross for thee. Even thy carpentry to share. Thou hast known for me. Lest I forget Gethsemane. Lest I forget my agony. Lest I forget thy love for me. Lead me to Calvary. I told you it was going to be better than this morning. I knew it was going to be better. I mean the Sunday morning sermon was great. And if you need to listen to it, you need to go listen to it. But let's just be honest though. Tonight's sermon was awesome. And so thank you Pastor Shelley and of course your family for coming. It's been a blessing to have you here. And I love Pastor Shelley. He's a great friend of mine. And we love Steadfast Baptist Church. You guys are always in our prayers. We're praying for you. We support you. We stand with Steadfast Baptist Church. And so make sure you thank him for coming. Make sure you're a blessing to him while he's here. He's going to be leaving on Tuesday. And so just thank him for coming. And let's go ahead and pray and we'll be dismissed. Father, we thank you so much for the sermon, Lord. What a great sermon and what a great truth. I pray that, Lord, you'd give us wisdom and discernment to cut off those who are spiritual democrats. And I pray that you'd help us to have the wisdom to be able to discern who is and who isn't, Lord. To be able to cut them off and part ways from them or cut them from our company, Lord. And, Lord, I pray, God, that you bless the fellowship to follow, the week to follow, Lord. And I pray you keep Pastor Shelley and his family safe as they go back home. We love you. We thank you. We pray these things in Jesus' name. Amen. You are dismissed.
