(Disclaimer: This transcript is auto-generated and may contain mistakes.) Lord in Jesus' name we pray, Amen. Amen. Well it's great to be here this morning and I thank you so much for coming and I also want to thank Pastor Anderson and the staff for all the hospitality and it's a it's an honor to be here and to preach behind this pulpit here and I just want to get right into it because I have a lot of notes here so the title of my sermon is the death penalty versus murder the death penalty versus murder so look down at your Bible at Matthew chapter 15 verse number 1 the Bible says then came to Jesus scribes and Pharisees which were of Jerusalem saying why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders for they wash not their hands when they eat bread but he answered and said unto them why do you also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition for God commanded saying honor thy father and mother and he that cursed father or mother let him die the death so here we have Jesus Christ quoting the Word of God which of course he is the Word of God but he's quoting the Bible from the Old Testament and saying that it's a capital crime to curse your father or mother and this is one of the more extreme things that people would say this is extreme in the Bible right people modern-day because obviously we don't have the death penalty in this country for cursing your father or mother or there'd be a lot of dead kids around this country today but doesn't mean that this is not a legitimate commandment by God and basically the reason why I'm preaching this is where I know that a lot of people probably already understand this concept but right now there's a faction of haters that hate our type of preaching hate our type of pastors and they're going around and they're saying that we're inciting violence when we preach the death penalty when we preach against the sodomites and I honestly I really I'm kind of sick of Pride Month right now I'm pretty much over it but this is probably the last Sunday for Pride Month this month so I'm not necessarily preaching about you know the sodomites as a whole but I'm preaching about the fact that the Bible does teach that there is a death penalty and there is also something called murder in the Bible and the Bible makes the difference for that and tells us what the difference is and we obviously in this room probably most people understand this concept but a lot of people out in the world don't but what I think is that they're intentionally trying to twist what we say to make it seem like we are inciting violence because the next thing that they want to do is they want to try to get us on some kind of technicality where if we preach this truth you know and obviously none of us believe that you should act on your own account or we should be vigilantes and go out and carry out vigilante justice against people that deserve the death penalty we've never taught that I've never taught that I know Pastor Anderson doesn't teach that so I kind of want to preach this sermon for that reason because I want to make it very clear today what we believe and you know there's people there that are I just I want to I want to caution people to not go too far don't go past what the Bible says in our beliefs so let's turn over to let's see Exodus chapter 20 I'm just going to read for you while you turning over there Mark chapter 7 verse 10 Mark chapter 7 verse 10 says for Moses said honor thy father and mother and who so cursed the father or mother let him die the death so here's Jesus another time and a different gospel saying the exact same thing so do you think that Jesus agrees with the death penalty yes or no why would he quote this scripture if he actually didn't believe it of course he believes it he's the Word of God he's the one that came up with it so obviously he believes this now I'm sure that in Old Testament Israel this was a very rare a case where someone would actually curse their father or mother and you know they're probably saying like hey mom and dad go to hell or mom you know that that kind of curse or maybe just you know because people think cursing is is cussing that's a whole nother sermon topic that's kind of gone out recently but anyway that's I'm not preaching about that today but throughout history the death penalty has been a standard form of punishment in the world ancient times it's always been and it always should be a standard because what happens when you stop having the death penalty for capital crimes well crime runs rampant and what do you know crime is running rampant today isn't it and and so when you don't have the death penalty enforceable or being enforced this world is going to wax worse and worse the Bible says that evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse as we draw towards the end times you know and when they say hey let's abolish the police you know and in some terms I agree that the police shouldn't have this ultimate power that they've had but honestly you know if we don't have anything protecting anybody from crime then some you know it's gonna get worse we see what it's like now I mean you can't even drop park your car somewhere without some hobo trying to steal your catalytic converter or something so anyway and that's just the scratch in the surface there so in America capital punishment also known as the death penalty is a state-sanctioned practice of killing a person as a punishment for a crime the sentence ordered that an offender is to be punished in such a manner is known as a death sentence and the act of carrying out the sentence is known as an execution so just to get a few terms there you know what the United States has been putting people to death as long as it's been a country and even before the United States was formed in the 1700s there you know there was still the death penalty before that you know what sodomy was part of that death penalty sentence so right now in this country there's a moratorium on the death penalty in several states Washington State in 2017 I believe outlawed and abolished the death penalty period so that's just like saying hey hey pick me and then all the other all these offenders are going to come out and and they know they're not going to get sentenced to death so they're just going to not be afraid to commit crimes and honestly in other states where the death penalty does exist they're not really enforcing it that much or they're not doing it as much or either we're just not hearing it as much thank God that some guy in Tucson got put to death just recently who was a child molester but you know he was on death row for like 40 years 40 years so it is an enterprise to put people in the prison system and make money off them corporations buy these prisons and run these prisons and there's a whole nother system and I preached a sermon about that before I'm not preaching about that now but you know they they don't want to put them to death because they make a lot of money off of them while they're on death row for 40 years or whatever but I'm glad that they did finally put them to death it was by lethal injection hopefully it hurt but you know what hell is gonna hurt a lot worse for that man then the death penalty that he received now I want to define for you what murder is murder is the unlawful premeditated killing of a human being by another to kill means to unlawfully murder someone with premeditation so now there's the killing that's bad there's the killing that's good okay the killing that's good is putting capital punishment upon someone and then getting the death sentence in that sentence being carried out I had to turn to Exodus chapter 20 look at verse number 13 the Bible says thou shalt not kill so that's one of the Ten Commandments you're not supposed to kill that the punishment for killing someone is the death penalty let's look at Matthew chapter 19 turn to Matthew chapter number 19 so I'm just trying to show you the difference between what the death penalty is the Jesus said there is a death penalty people say well Jesus would never put anybody to death well why did he quote that scripture then doesn't make sense does it because you know further on in that chapter I was listening and it said that the blind or leading the blind that's what's happening in this country right now where you have a lot of blind shepherds and dumb dogs that can't bark are pastoring or leading groups of people and so-called Christians and they're not teaching them correctly and you know what they're blind they're leading people that are blind and they're all falling in the ditch but you know what we got to rest our head on what the Bible says at the end of the day and go by what it says not by what pop culture says not by what the political atmosphere is at the time but what the Bible says and you know what the Bible is not outdated these laws and these these punishments still apply today so look at Matthew 19 verse 16 it says and behold one came and said unto him good master what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life and he said unto him why callest thou me good there's none good but one that is God but if thou will enter into life keep the commandments he saith unto him which Jesus said thou shalt do no murder so what is he quoting here he's quoting Exodus chapter 20 verse 3 13 excuse me and where it says thou shalt not kill so what's Jesus's interpretation of that is that that kill that it's talking about there that is called murder okay so people will say we'll throw this in our face out and out in public the doesn't the Bible say thou shalt not kill it's like yeah but that's talking about murder when you're talking about a capital punishment for a capital crime putting someone to death for a crime that they've committed that's not murder that's that is a judgment against that person for committing something that is a capital crime and again I realize that this country doesn't have in place all the things that the Bible has in place but just because that's true doesn't mean that we should not preach what the Bible says is right and true it also says thou shalt not commit adultery that's a capital punishment offense thou shalt not steal not a capital punishment offense thou shalt not bear false witness also not capital punishment so not every mortal moral sin in the Bible carries the death penalty but murder is a capital crime so turn over to Numbers chapter 35 verse number 11 numbers 35 verse number 11 we are going to go through a lot of scripture today and I'm going to try to preach fast because I've been known to preach a little bit long sometimes so I'll try not to hold you hostage here have a hostage situation take place today but look at Numbers chapter 35 verse number 11 the Bible says then he shall appoint you cities to be cities of refuge for you that the Slayer may flee thither which killeth any person at unawares and they shall be unto you cities for refuge from the avenger that the manslayer die not until until he stand before the congregation in judgment so we don't even believe as Bible believing Christians or you shouldn't believe that someone should just take the law into their own hands in a situation that they're supposed to be a trial they're supposed to be judgment that's passed forth by the judges if someone murders somebody there should be evidence there should be witnesses see we don't just believe that we just get to randomly go around killing people because they we know they've broken God's law there still is a process that must take place the Bible is explaining that right here that he must stand before the congregation he's not to die until then so if they if it was like manslaughter or something they would not be put to death they would have to stay in that refuge city until the death of the high priest okay so now turn to Deuteronomy chapter 19 verse number 11 so even if the sodomy law got put back into place and there was death the death penalty for sodomites there would still have to be witnesses there would still have to be judgment where we've never taught nor ever will teach that we're supposed to have any kind of justice done by Christians or even just random randos on the street we're not supposed to just take the law into our own hands look at Deuteronomy 19 11 it says but if any man hate his neighbor and lie and wait for him and rise up against him and smite him mortally that he die and fleeth into one of these cities and the elders of the city shall send and fetch him thence and deliver or yeah deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood that he may die thine eye shall not pity him but thou shall put away the guilt of innocent blood from Israel that it may go well with thee so what is the Bible saying here if someone hates his neighbor if someone lies in wait against his neighbor and rises up against him and smite him mortally that he die and fleeth into one of these cities that the elders are supposed to sin and fetch him thence and deliver him into the hand of the avenger of blood that what he may die that's what the Bible says right and I I thine eye shall not pity him you remember when pastor a minute says you know my sad that a bunch of sodomites got killed no I think it's great right so he's just saying that his eye is not gonna pity someone that gets the death sentence and obviously that wasn't what that was but still if someone you know some there was a guy that was a Planned Parenthood worked at Planned Parenthood or some abortion clinic and they call his name was George tiller they called him George tiller the baby killer and he said that he had murdered that well he didn't say he murdered them they performed over a million abortions a million okay he was in church serving as like a deacon or an usher or something and someone went into the church someone actually went to that church I think and got up and shot him right in the middle of the church service and killed him and you know of course the the left mainstream media they are all freaked out about it stuff you know do I think that was right thing to do it wasn't right for that person to do that but here's the thing I don't pity that person that got killed I'm not gonna blame you know you know God can deal with that person as he sees fit but look the person that died did he deserve to die he deserved to die but you know there's a difference between you know us saying hey go do this and then being like okay well some person that murdered a million babies died oh am I supposed to be sad about that you know pray that he's got saved right before the bullet went through his head that's so stupid that's what Christians will say on Facebook though won't they so Bible capital punishment I just googled this term just to see what Google would say okay and of course they're wrong about some of the stuff in here but I'm just gonna read what they say and some of the stuff is right but according to Google and I don't know what website I just kind of copy and pasted this right the first thing I saw here it says sins that were punishable by death include homicide which is murder right striking one's parents smiting that they're put your parents kidnapping that's correct cursing one's parents we already saw that witchcraft and divination correct bestiality yep worshiping other gods yes violating the Sabbath yes but not anymore child sacrifice absolutely adultery incest yes and then it says male homosexual sodomy I put the sodomy in there because it said something different I just I didn't want to say that word so male homosexual sodomy and it says in brackets here there is no biblical legal punishment for lesbians really oh really but before before I go on to the verses to say that that's not true because it's not true because you know maybe it doesn't say it in the Leviticus 2013 but any sodomite should be put to death right so blasphemy is another one that they forgot and then false being a false prophet is another one rape you know here's here's another one that they'll say well the Bible teaches that people that are the women are raped are supposed to marry their rapist no that's not what it teaches and and I'll show you that here just a minute but let's look over at Romans chapter 1 mm-hmm Romans chapter number 1 Romans chapter number 1 so is it true is is Google right or whatever website this came off of it's not right they're saying it's just only the only the male homos were supposed to be put to death okay that's not true so lotus says Romans 124 says wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lust of their own hearts to dishonor their own bodies between themselves so God gave them up of course we know that who changed the truth of God into a lie and worshiped and served the creature more than the Creator who is blessed forever amen for this cause God gave them up unto vile affections it doesn't say love is love it says vile affections for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature so what is the Apostle Paul saying he's saying yeah the women too right and likewise also the men leaving the natural use of the woman burned in their lust one toward another men with men working that which is unseemly and receiving in themselves that recompense of their error which was meat or fitting that's AIDS monkey pox you know all that stuff right and even as they did not like to retain God and their knowledge God gave them over to a reprobate mind that means their mind is rejected their mind they've gone out of the bounds of normality they've gone against nature and God just said you know what I'm done with you I'm finished with you and they can no longer be redeemed or saved so it says a reprobate mind to do those things which are not convenient now skip down to verse number 32 of course we know they're filled with all manner of wickedness but it also says in verse 32 remember that that little article thing said that it's there's no death penalty for punishment or for the punishment of lesbians look what it says in verse 32 who knowing the judgment of God that they which commit such things are what what's it say worthy of death that's New Testament right that's not you know dude Jesus you know technically when he said that he was still in the Old Testament but it's still considered the New Testament right it says not only do the same but have pleasure in them that do them so is it true that there's no legal punishment for lesbians in the Bible not according to Romans chapter 1 so you know and this is the thing is they owe it people these these freaks always try to get like it to be normal and show women doing these things right and they try to like get guys interested in this these weird relationships or whatever but like even that Buzz Lightyear movie that just came out I think it's two women that like kiss or something in the film so they haven't gone full retard yet in some of these children's films but I mean you know Nickelodeon showing like transgender what are not transgender trans transvestites that's what they're really called transvestites parades and all kinds of weird stuff look they're reading to people's kids across America you know they're we live in a real sick world now we live in a world where you know at steadfast the those women actually literally taking their whole tops off and just being in front of children vexing their eyeballs and all this other stuff and then you know but imagine if if a man in this church went to a park and took all of his clothes off what would happen to that guy he goes straight to jail and and rightly so so why are these sodomites able to do all these things because they basically have just take they just they just allow them to do whatever they want now they can protest a church even though they're not supposed to be in the parking lot they won't trespass them they're doing all these wicked things but you know I just want to show you that in the Bible that Romans chapter 1 says lesbians also are worthy of death okay so don't just get this idea it's just men that's not true but that's how they're trying to paint the picture aren't they that it's still it's still kind of normal there it's not that's not as bad and I'll agree to me it's more disgusting than a man would do that but it's it's still equally disgusting it's still equally disgusting right so in God's eyes at least it's still the death penalty so but here we got to understand this also that all sin is punishable by death by God so God could literally kill you for any sin that you do because he's God and he has that right to do that you know Ananias and Sapphira they lied to the Holy Ghost they kept back part of the money and then God killed them for lying killed them for saying that they were gonna give something they didn't give and so God can just do those things God can kill someone for picking up sticks on the Sabbath God can kill someone for various things so you know just because it's not the death penalty by our you know by the government it still could be a death penalty to God because ultimately if you just sin one time as a liar you're still gonna die and go to hell which is the second death right so a lot of people say well you guys are just teaching all this stuff and there's a church and state separation for a reason so but I'll just say this that I think morality transcends this idea you know we have the Roe vs. Wade thing get overturned and I'm gonna talk about that a little bit more in a few minutes but you know I believe that I'm most political when it comes to morality in this world if they're legislating morality see 50 years ago they legislated murder for innocent and unborn children which is wicked as hell right and so all these years babies have been murdered by their mothers and they're just like it's a choice it's it's our it's my body my choice but they don't want to talk about that when it comes to the vaccines now do they but anyway they're a bunch of hypocrites that's why because they just are filled with hypocrisy about everything but um you know just think about this for a second it was ruled by the Supreme Court who should be judging by morality also not just the piece of paper that they think is you know inspired or something that I actually heard that on CNN this morning that it's inspired that the Constitution's inspired anyway Wow but so basically I believe that morality transcends the the church and state separation and morality is a different thing so when you got criminal activities happening you know and and they're being legislated from the bench that it's okay for for queers and sodomites to not only live but also to get married right and that people are freaking out right now I think it's actually pretty funny all these liberals are just crying their liberal tears all over look at how they're gonna come after the marriages now they're gonna good I hope they do come after the marriages good I hope they do come after all this stuff I hope that we can be kind of in a little bit more of a normal world and they're talking about like so there's eight states today I said I was gonna talk about this later but I'll talk about it now anyway there's eight states today today that abortion is illegal in amen and there's I think I wrote I wrote it down on here somewhere I think it's like 26 states or 24 states or something by the next couple weeks are going to be this way I think only like 16 states are gonna be like the we really want to kill our babies still yeah you know these people these people are psychopaths they're going my hometown they you know had five the night of rage of course because that's just what Portland is right a place where people just you know it's raining let's let's have a parade let's let's let's let's destroy the town because it's raining well that's every day right so they just want to rage about anything but right now they're very upset they're they're they're destroying I think they're doing graffiti and and it's probably gonna ramp up with all the stuff with churches because they're really angry about it but I just think it's funny you know I wore my Donald Trump suit today so that you know I'm just kidding that's it that's it this is political as I get when it comes to morality I mean obviously Democrat Republican like whatever it's you know the illusion of choice but I I do applaud and I'm glad that abortion has been the row versus wait has been overturned so but anyway people will say there's a church and state separation I I agree with that somewhat but you know I agree that our country is based upon that to a certain extent but it's not even in the Constitution they always say it's in the Constitution no it's not it's never been in the Constitution it was a letter from Thomas Jefferson to some Baptist preacher but anyway that's a completely off-topic thing but it's you know this is referenced by people that proclaim that we're wrong according to man's laws being separated from God's laws but see it's murder is a capital crime in this country still guess what it's still a crime in the Bible too so you know when morality comes into play that's when I get political and you know they're they're legislating death from the bench I mean just imagine that I we lived in this for 50 years but now they're legislating that it's not okay and people are freaking out about it like it's a woman's right to choose that's not your body okay it's not your body the body the other body is another body inside of your belly that's a baby that's not your body I mean it's like you got a drama picture now these people always say they believe in science and everything but they know you know we in this country we believe is we love is love and then they right after that we believe science is real oh really is it your body or is it the baby's body that you're trying to kill it's the baby's body so you don't believe in science because you're a moron they only want to believe in science when it comes to us being related to chimpanzees and all this other stuff right or that you know love is love but what they don't realize that every study has been done on homosexuality shows that they were not born that way but they don't want to believe that science now do they so that's when they want to have faith or whatever so anyway people just say well we're wrong we shouldn't be talking about this stuff because the Bible is outdated and the death penalty is you know is what the laws of the land make it and and it is true to a circuit certain extent because even in Jesus's time he was not the Jews were not allowed to put people to death because they were under the rule of the Romans government so but Jesus still believed in the death penalty he still taught the death penalty he still dealt with the woman that was caught in adultery he said whoever you know whosoever is without sin cast the first stone at her so what did he say don't do it no he said if you're without sin go ahead and throw the first stone right but see God is in a position where he can forgive those sins he can spare those people I don't think that someone that's a murderer you know is can never be spared by God of course they could be spared by God David committed murder and God pardoned him and spared him you know obviously was punished for what he did but he didn't have to be put to death so God can veto these things when he wants to so but you know I am speaking for myself and what I personally personally believe that the Bible says today but I am kind of taking it upon myself a little bit today to to let you know that what other pastors I I know that they believe okay and they teach so I just want I want to read this I want to be very clear about what I believe I don't believe that I or other Christians that I preach to my congregation to or other congregations or anyone listening on the internet or any other facet should ever take the law into their own hands to make sure any capital crime is carried out that's what I believe and I believe that that's what the other pastors believe too if I'm wrong about that then I'm wrong about that but I don't think so regardless of whether the government under which we live does its job or has such crimes on the books as a capital crime I never have nor will I ever preach that we as Christians or any non-christian for that matter should ever do so is that clear does that make sense okay furthermore if anyone was ever to act on their own in any capacity and say that it was my preaching or the preaching of my friends or any other pastor for that matter that caused them to commit such an act is operating on their own and I bear no ties to anyone that would ever do such a thing is that clear because what's going on today is that they're trying to connect us to anything and say hey you're you're preaching is inciting violence you're radicalizing people and now they're gonna go out and do these things you know but it's really weird what's really funny though I was talking to Pastor Anderson the other day when he was at our church and I was thinking he was still 15 years in the ministry but he's almost 17 years in now and as far as I know and I'm pretty sure that I'm right about this nobody that's ever been under the sound of his voice even the reprobates that came to his church and got kicked out or whatever have ever taken it upon themselves to hurt any homo or kill them nobody's ever been killed nobody's ever been killed under Pastor Jimenez's voice nobody's ever been killed by the preaching that we preach so and that makes me understand this is that if we're a cult you know like everybody accuses of being right everybody says oh you guys are just a big cult yeah well if we're such a big cult then how come our followers don't listen to what we're saying if that's what we're really teaching you know what I'm saying like how come in 17 years of Pastor Anderson being a cult leader how come nobody's ever killed a sodomite before you know why because that's not what he's preaching that's not what I'm preaching that's not what Pastor Jimenez is preaching that's not what Pastor Shelley's preaching and they're just trying to make up lies and and throw crap to the wall and see if it sticks that's what's really going on and there's like a real push right now to try to tie us to people that have gone over the border on some things but I will not have nor ever will act as an agent of any type of terror or terrorist group that would seek to supersede the government in any way shape or form and furthermore anybody that's saying that I'm doing that is a stinking liar okay so when I say that it's the government's job to put people to death regardless of what the capital crime is I'm saying and I read my lips I'm saying that it's the government's job to do this it's not our job it's not y'all's job it's not the you know the not even the non-christian the other Christian go to another church it's not our job to do that's the government's job we understand this but we are simply teaching what the Bible says right 31 people were caught supposedly in a u-haul trying to do who knows what to a pride parade in Coeur d'Alene Idaho this is being tied to steadfast through a tick-tock video that's gone mega viral the last I heard it has five million views whoever's making this connection is making it up and lying no nobody in that u-haul that got caught first of all what a dumb way to go and try to break up a pride parade like who who rides in the back of a u-haul to do anything you know most guys you know like well yeah I'll drive my own vehicle you know it's like I'm gonna drive right so why would 31 dudes who look like federal agents jump into the back of a u-haul truck and I mean what were they gonna do cause you know cause a little chaos or something I don't know but they're all arrested and said that they were now they're tying this to steadfast they have no connection with steadfast whatsoever but yet Pete there when people will lie and just keep repeating these lies then people will actually believe it and and like people reached out to Pastor Shelley and were like hey is this true I don't want to say it if it's not true and you know obviously they'd never no person in that u-haul ever visited steadfast Baptist Church in any way shape or form but this is what I'm talking about this is the new way that they're trying to come at us how are they going to take us down now well here's another new way tie us to some kind of terror crime tie us to say that we're inciting violence and that we're radicalizing people to hurt other people that's just a lie and simply not true now let me move on with the sermon here Ted Bundy and who's ever heard of Ted Bundy before okay really wicked evil serial rapist and murderer and I remember my mom tells told me this story she used to work at a place called racers I don't know if you ever heard racers they like sell like burritos and you know whatever it's like microwavable stuff or whatever anyway she was working there and the day that Ted Bundy was being electrocuted and they did the time the ticking you know the countdown they put a burrito in the microwave turn it on and counted it down to the same thing and when it went ding they were like fry you sucker that's just that's just normal people when someone's so evil and wicked you know the people are gonna shout and cheer when someone that deserves the death penalty dies because of all the atrocities that they've committed I just you know my mom was there participating she's not exactly a fundamentalist Baptist so now I'm gonna go way back here on this one I'm gonna tell a little story here and who's ever heard of the Lindbergh baby kidnapping the Lindbergh baby kidnapping okay I don't I don't want to go too deep into it but basically Charles Lindbergh was like a very famous pilot and on May 12 1932 the body of the kidnapped baby that so some some guys broke into his house at nine o'clock at night stole the baby put all these ransom notes out there's like seven ransom notes and they were saying they wanted 50,000 and they were saying they want a hundred thousand and I'll just read to you when they found the baby because they I think they paid the ransom I'm pretty sure they paid the ransom and they killed his baby anyway okay so so this is they obviously they kidnapped him which is wicked and then extorted them for money and then committed murder so on May 12 1932 the body of the kidnapped baby was accidentally found partially buried badly decomposed about four and a half miles southeast of the Lindbergh home 45 feet from the highway near Mount Rose New Jersey in Mercer County the discovery was made by William Allen an assistant on a truck driven by Orville Wilson the head was crushed there was a hole in the skull and some of the body members were missing the body was positively identified and cremated at Trenton New Jersey May 13 1932 the coroner's examination showed that the child had been dead for about two months and the death was caused by a blow to the head so these wicked evil animals broke in and stole this you know they didn't even have the decency to just get the money and give the baby back they murdered the child you know they put these people through a living hell on February 13th 1935 the jury returned a verdict they caught they caught one of the guys and it says Hopman which is was his name was guilty of murder in the first degree the sentence death the defense appealed the Supreme Court of the state of New Jersey on October 9th 1935 upheld the verdict of the lower court Hopman's D appeal was to the Supreme Court of the United States was denied on December 9th 1935 and he was to be electrocuted on January 17th 1936 however on the same day the governor of the state of New Jersey granted a 30-day reprieve and on February 17 1936 Hopman was resentenced to be electrocuted during the week of March 30th 1936 on March 30th 1936 the pardon court of the state of New Jersey denied Hopman's petition for clemency and on April 3rd 1936 at 847 p.m. Bruno Richard Hopman was electrocuted so praise God they actually did what was right back then for this guy that murdered this child kidnapped this child and you know extorted this family for money and you know this state New Jersey I'm pretty sure doesn't even have the death penalty anymore you know it's just it's a shame because things terrible things like this happen all the time maybe not exactly as high profile as this particular case was let's turn to Exodus chapter 21 real quick though I just want to go over some more of the death penalty situations that happen in the Bible but it really ties to this specific crime right here Exodus chapter 21 verse 12 he that smiteth a man so that he die shall be surely be put to death they broke that one right and if any man lie not and wait but God deliver him into his hand then I will appoint thee a place where whether he shall flee so let's talk about an accidental deaths manslaughter things like that but if a man come presumptuously upon his neighbor to slay him with guile thou shalt take him from mine altar that he may die and he that smiteth his father or mother shall surely be put to death he that steal at the man and selleth him or if he be found in his hand he shall surely be put to death what does the Bible say should happen to people that kidnap other people they should be surely put to death if you sell them surely put to death here's another accusation we get oh yeah you guys condone slavery and all this other stuff it's like what does this say right here if you kidnap somebody and sell them as a slave you should be put to death that's what the Bible says right and he that cursed his father or mother shall surely be put to death here's the one that Jesus is quoting right here so look the Bible teaches the death penalty there is a difference between murder and the death penalty and murder is someone that actually premeditates it or you know they lie in wait they hate that person they want to murder that person and they do it the Bible says that person shall surely be put to death if you steal or or kidnap somebody you shall surely be put to death and and so on and so forth now Lincoln President Lincoln was assassinated while he was at a play on June on July 7th 1965 for convicted conspirators including boarding house owner Mary E Surratt were hanged in the courtyard of what is now Fort Leslie J McNair for their roles in the assassination of President Lincoln on July 7th 1865 after months of drama four people faced the gallows what did they do to someone that murdered the president United States they hanged all of them until they were dead what does the Bible say about rape and child molestation let's look at Deuteronomy chapter 22 verse 25 I realize this isn't very pleasant topic I'll try to make my evening service a little different but this is stuff we got to know folks and hey we got to be able to answer people and it's important that people understand where we stand on these things what was the Bible say about rape you know these idiots that will say you have to marry the rapist no that's not what the Bible says look at Deuteronomy 22 verse 25 but if a man find a betrothed damsel in the field and a man force her and lie with her then the man only that lie with her shall what's it say die what's supposed to happen to someone that rapes somebody else they're supposed to die whether they're a child or a woman or whatever it is a man that person should die right but it says under the damsel thou shalt do nothing there is in the damsel no sin worthy of death for as when a man rises against his neighbor and slaits him even so is this matter so does that what to say that she's supposed to marry him how do you marry somebody that's dead I mean that'd be weird right so that's not what the Bible teaches says for he found her in the field and the betrothed damsel cried and there was none to save her she was not able to and this this applies look the Bible doesn't have to tell us every single scenario that would happen in a rape it could be children it could be a man you know men get raped too you know in prison and just in general I mean there's these sodomites you know Jesse Lee Peterson let's just talk about that for a second this freak that talked to Pastor Anderson he was like do you sin do you sin it's like you sin you idiot you're a sodomite you're a freak of nature this guy was like taking advantage of his ministry and and just doing all kinds of weird I saw this documentary I wish I could unsee yesterday about him it's just like good night this guy was a predator he was a straight-up prayer and he's asking I've ever looked at a woman before it's like yeah have you you freak anyway so good mark 942 is what's the Bible say should happen to someone that offends a child you know when you're when you're a child molester or a child rapist or you just even try to turn a child away from the faith I mean the Bible has a various Jesus said what we should what this person should do says in mark 942 and whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck and he were cast into the sea now I mean just if you picture the visual on this you're on the dock you know there's this giant rock tied around your neck and someone just goes and throws it in what's gonna happen you're gonna dive to the bottom of the sea and then you're gonna blow up because I mean let's put them in this what does that see that's outside of Japan a bit deepest anybody know the name of it huh the Mariana Trench is that what it's called they put them in that one I mean there's not gonna be much left it's like without Alka-Seltzer does to a seagull you know it's it's got the person's gonna blow up and die and look Jesus said it'd be better for you to do that than to be of an offender of little ones I mean even if you're gonna die and go to hell it shouldn't be with this sin on your account because as bad as that is hell is that much worse for that person and it's eternal it's eternal turn to Luke chapter 17 verse number 1 Luke chapter 17 verse number 1 is that what okay I got time Luke 17 chapter for Luke chapter 17 verse number 1 this is just another way that Jesus said it in Luke chapter 17 verse number 1 it says then said he unto his disciples that is impossible but that offenses will come but woe unto him through whom they come so yeah offenses are gonna happen people are gonna be offending people and all these things happen but woe unto that person that means that some bad things are gonna be happening to that person says it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck and he'd be cast into the sea and then he should offend one of these little ones so what does God feel about how does God feel about someone that offends children he says hey it's better for them to drop be drowned in the depths of the sea with a stone tied around their neck then to face God on Judgment Day having this sin on your account and there's multitudes of children being molested in this world and and God you know is not going to spare in his wrath when it comes to judging these people it's a very stern warning on someone that would do something like that and look if you do something like that you're just a reprobate but if you're a reprobate and you're thinking about doing that thing it's better to kill yourself than it is to offend a child because if you even think something weird like that there's something wrong with you folks there's something wrong with the people that would believe that garbage now child murder and sacrifice let's cut well I'm going to cover that I mean these are just really uplifting topics I understand that but I'm going to cover it anyway literally Leviticus chapter 20 verse number one Leviticus chapter 20 verse number one I was watching I said I was watching CNN I'm sorry for the sin committing that I just want to see what was being said and it instead of just like the people are more on your side I like to hear what the weirdos are saying about everything and they're just like so upset they're they're just they're really crying some liberal tears they're filling up swimming pools with their tears right now but this pert this lady she was being interviewed by when the CNN anchors just like on the street or whatever this is yesterday and she said we should be able to kill our baby if we want to go to college she said baby what does that mean that means that this woman thinks that just abortion on demand no matter what you want to do it for is a okay hey I've got to go to college what you can't go to college with the baby I'm sure people do it it's just they want to be selfish whores and not do what's right by their child and so because the law was enacted so that people could actually murder their own children in some states even really close to the due date you know worse they're saying that we're attacking women's health care that's not health care folks that's death care it's death care they're taking care through death something that they don't want well close your legs lady and you won't have that problem don't play the whore in your father's house and you won't have to worry about it but listen to me isn't that premeditated don't people have to think about that so what does the Bible say should happen to someone that premeditates someone else's death so like I had some person some idiot on Twitter you know Twitter I was in a Twitter beef sorry I'm confessing my faults I actually just posted this picture where this the babies are like doing this over the grave of death the death of Roe vs. Wade this guy got in there and he was just like he's like what about the woman that dies trying to have an abortion I'm like like you know you reap what you sow if you're if you're trying to murder your baby because now you don't have the health care you know you don't have a surgeon to come and crush the baby's skull in their womb and suck them out with a vacuum cleaner that's what they do super wicked it's not some just painless process women die from it they have permanent problems with themselves but if they're premeditated Lee killing their baby and now they don't have access to to health care for women well death care for women they don't have that access anymore so they're gonna just do it by other means if they accidentally die doing that well guess what they got what they deserved I'm not gonna shed a tear for them want not one tear not one conservative tears being cried out of my eyeball look at Leviticus chapter 20 verse number one the Bible says and the Lord spake unto Moses saying again thou shalt say unto the children of Israel whosoever he be of the children of Israel or the strangers that sojourn in Israel that giveth the children of it or the given any of his seed excuse me unto Molech he shall surely be what put to death so if you take your child that's already born and sacrifice them to a god false god which is a devil then the Bible says that you're supposed to get the death penalty the people of the land shall stone him with stones that's what God says the order is to stone them with stones is that not what it says that's a pretty brutal way to die I mean especially if you're not getting hit the face or whatever I mean you're getting hit in the ankle bone and the shin bone and just all I mean they're probably just pelting you in all areas I'm sure they're not like David versus Goliath hitting you with what killing you with one stone on the first hit so it's a pretty brutal way to die but you know what else is a pretty brutal way to die to take a baby that can't even fight for their own selves and sticking them in a fire and burning them up as a sacrifice so a child has never done anything wrong child that's just just trying to survive you know and they're being at their trip people are trying to attack them in the easiest place that they feel they can in a mother's womb the place that they should feel the most safe look at verse three and I will set my face against that man and will cut him off from among the people because he hath given of his seed unto Molech to defile my sanctuary and to profane my holy name and if the people of the land do anyways hide their eyes from the man when he giveth of his seed unto Molech and kill him not then I will set my face against that man and against his family and I will cut him off and all that go a whoring after him to commit whoredom with Molech from among their people so even the people that would hide their eyes of something this horrific God says you know what I'm not only gonna just do something to him I'm gonna do something to you I'm gonna hold you accountable for not putting that person to death you see the death penalty is something God commands okay and and and if you put your child to death it should be the death penalty but do you think that in these states where they go you know now they're talking about all these plans so they're gonna pick you know people up and take them to different states or whatever and what are they gonna do about that and that's all gonna be a big fight or whatever women are still gonna get abortions let's just call it what it really is murder child murder child murderers you know some of the with the Lindbergh baby the Lindbergh baby was killed and murdered by somebody and then they put those people to death why would you not put someone to death that premeditates the murder of their own child in their womb but it's not gonna happen it's not gonna happen but you know what God is not going to turn the face of his face away from those that approve of it also because there might be people like you know I mean all these people are so just so brazen about about abortion and and not being able to murder their children anymore well I'm glad that their parents didn't do it for them or they should be glad I'm not glad actually if they're if they're wanting that to be the case but these people they're just so they're so brain defiled and so crazy I mean obviously when you when you get done with church if you have a chance look at some of the the meltdowns that you see pretty funny other people are just whining about it but anyway I'm sorry I got to get moving on here so but you know what Roe vs Wade being overturned is something to celebrate about it really is and you know what we should make a big deal about it because it is a big deal and we should be behind it you know anybody that that is against you know I want to be behind what the Supreme Court ruled on I mean for once they got something right I can't believe it but I'm happy I'm happy about it so but planned death you know they have planned parenthood it should just be called planned death because that's what it is and it should be punishable by death it's premeditated murder and anybody that does that they've reaped what they've sown let's look at sodomy real quick Leviticus chapter 2013 I think you're already there Leviticus Leviticus chapter 20 verse 13 of course we've heard a lot of preaching about this obviously but I want to bring it up anyway all right sodomy Leviticus chapter 20 verse 13 the Bible says it's a death penalty situation America used to have it as a death penalty other countries around the world that weren't even necessarily Christian thought it was weird Russians hate sodomites they won't even let them have a pride parade there they the cops just go beat up the the protesters I mean well if they just were open to the gospel I mean Russia would be like a the like the Mecca for us or something but anyway but you know what Russia put a moratorium on the death penalty I just found that out that's weird anyway Leviticus chapter 20 verse 13 the Bible says if a man lie with or excuse me if a man lie with mankind as he lied with a woman both them have committed an abomination they shall surely be put to death their blood shall be upon them so we know that verse and you know a lot of times we'll say well stone them with stones well that would that would that make blood be upon them it would but it doesn't say they have to be stoned with stones does it does it say they have to be hanged no it does say that their blood shall be upon them though so if you shot them in modern they didn't have guns back then but modern day they do have guns now and so really in all honesty that's probably the most humane way to put somebody to death and have their blood be upon them right but you know there there's these forces of evil out there these people even within our own government that are saying you know that we're preaching that the you know that we're preaching that capital crimes is inciting violence so when we preach about capital crimes it's inciting violence and it's not inciting violence I want to give you some definitions here real quick inciting encouraged to or stir up violent or unlawful behavior that's what insight means I'm not encouraging that I'm just saying what the Bible says the second definition urge or persuade someone to act in a violent or unlawful way so that's you're saying go out and kill them this is what they deserve you go kill them that's inciting violence that's not what we teach okay but isn't it funny how when Roe versus Wade got overturned that what are they calling for if you're not if you're not say if we're not if women's health care is not safe then neither are you is that a threat of violence you better you better know it is it is a threat to violence and all this violence is happening why is it happening someone's inciting them to violence when all these black lives matters protests happen our own government officials were saying go out and and and do whatever you want and then nothing was happening to them and people couldn't even protect their own property I mean they try to put Kyle Rittenhouse in prison for the rest of his life and you know obviously maybe he shouldn't have been there you're 17 years old I mean I don't know if I'd want my kid going out with a ar-15 at 17 years old but you know he did and he protected himself it was very it was proven but my point is is that who's really inciting violence because it's not me it's not my pastor friends it's not all y'all I hope not we should you know we're nonviolent I got interviewed by a guy by reporter the other day and I just said hey we're nonviolent you know we're not racist we're not violent and we're not telling people to go do these things but people are trying to rally to get the FBI and law enforcement to throw us in jail for doing these things for inciting violence even though that's not what we're doing and what we're preaching is straight from the Bible and can't be any clearer and some of these are actually laws that are in the books in our own countries and I mean in several countries but you know we're constantly being accused of being cult leaders I already kind of brought that up and brought up the fact that over all the years that we've all been preaching nobody's ever been hurt you know show me on this doll were Pastor Anderson you know tried to commit violence on you or whatever we've never tried to commit violence on anybody we've never said to do that but yet that's the that's what the the angle that they're going with they're trying to connect us with people like Pastor Shelley being connected with these 31 skinheads or whatever that got caught in Idaho but they're also trying to connect Pastor Jones they're also trying to connect brother it brother Dylan which is my son-in-law and so they're saying that we're calling for the death of sodomites we're calling for it is that what we're doing we're calling for it no we're calling for the government to do their job which they never will so we don't have to you know but that's not we're not calling for them and they say you're calling for the murders that's how what they always say in like the hit pieces that they do on us you're calling for the murders didn't I already define what murder is didn't I already define what the death penalty is okay so we're not calling for the murder of anybody you're calling for the genocide of all people look fags isn't a people I know they want to put the brown and the black on there to you know whatever to include themselves whatever look the rainbow flag doesn't represents pride doesn't it it represents what people want to do in their own bedrooms or whatever but not only here they're so sick that once they get what they want what do they do they go out and dance and put on all these crazy costumes I saw this video where this lady is trying to turn her child you know toward these perverts as these pervert guys are dancing and whatever with their banana hammocks on or whatever and they got this child is just crying and trying to turn away she's like forcing him to turn a look her I don't know if that was his mom all these sodomites are adopting people it's disgusting but it's not genocide what is genocide well that's according to the UN the definition contained article 2 of the convention the Geneva convention describes genocide as a crime committed with the intent to destroy a national ethnic racial or religious group does it say fags there doesn't it doesn't say groups of perverts so genocide is like whatever the ethnic group or a race we don't believe in races here but whatever but that's that's not genocide you're calling for genocide you don't even know what you're talking about you sound like an idiot they don't understand science they don't understand the law they don't understand the Bible they think that they know it better we do here's the other thing they say and the first time I heard this was just recently when some tick-tock video was about Pastor Jones this lady was like he's calling for people to be unalived I'm like unalived like is that a thing apparently it is a thing but what is unalived mean to kill or murder somebody but it's basically it's newspeak it's like 1984 George straight out of George Orwell's book you know there's certain things that they're allowing us to say and certain things that they're not allowing us to say and apparently saying murder or death or anything like that is not allowed on social media and they're trying to stop people from saying it so instead they say unalived well I mean it just doesn't have the same hit is like murder does it doesn't have the same hit does it but it just sounds idiotic and she said it like 17 times in the video or something they're calling for the unaliving of people but we're not calling for the genocide we're not calling for the murder we're not calling for the unaliving of people through any means that is through us you know and I'm confident that the other pastors I'm friends with believe the same thing so I just want to kind of finish off with some things that some people have said recently and some in the past and I want to just kind of break down real quick for you I know we're running out of time here but I'll try to be quick here brother Dylan the man the Vancouver villain is what we call Dylan the Vancouver villain whitest preacher in the movement said these people should be put to death every single homosexual in this county or excuse me in this country should be charged with the crime the abomination see what he say charged with the crime the abomination of homosexuality that they have they should be convicted in a lawful trial they should be sentenced to death they should be lined up against the wall and shot in the back of the head so that's the part that everybody freaks out about but what's the Bible say their blood should be upon them so I know that that sound that is what the sound bite the people took a hold of and they freaked out but what did he say before they don't concentrate on the whole context of what he said that they should be charged with the crime it's an abomination the abomination of homosexuality is the crime convicted in a lawful trial witnesses brought forth so so on and so forth and then sentenced to death which because why because it's a capital crime that's why so he wasn't saying that we should do it or anybody else should he's saying that it should be taken care of by the government pastor Jimenez said in 2016 and when he got done preaching the sermon he was like yeah do you think that you know it's gonna be a big deal what I preached and then like all sudden everything just broke loose on them Pastor Mena said people say well aren't you sad that 50 sodomites died here's the problem with that it's like the equivalent of asking me well aren't you sad that 50 pedophiles were killed today Pastor Mena said no I think it's great I think that helps society I think that Orlando Florida is a little safer tonight and people freaked out about this next well not this part well yeah anyway I'm kind of so here here's what else he says I'm kind of upset that he didn't finish the job because these people are predators him and his so I got this from the bad guys okay they are abusers they take advantage of people that's what we say all the time I don't regret and then when they came to make him apologize he said this I don't regret anything that I said and I don't take back anything that I said and then it said I do think that most people out there have not listened to the sermon in its context and are basically just taking what the media is portraying and the media for the most part is just flat-out lying and look they haven't stopped lying they're still lying and now they're just trying to come at it with different angles during the interview who men has quoted a couple of passages in the Bible that he says teach these people deserve to die the point that I was trying to make is if God puts the death penalty on it God says they deserve to die and they die this is not something that we as Christians need to be mourning and men have said in the same way that this gunman who went in there and killed all these people he violated Scripture God says that he deserves to die for taking their lives we don't need to be mourning his death either but you know how much how many of you heard that part of it see they don't want to really report that part of it and obviously this person was obviously being a little more literal with the with the media reports but I mean the media was lying about all kinds of stuff his church only has 40 people in it or whatever 50 people and there was like over 200 people they just want to lie the article I gave this guy an interview and the first he says a guy that frequents my church you know that he was trying to plan this pride parade attack or something but what did I tell him in the interview I said he's visited our church twice I wasn't like condemning the guy or anything I don't know you know you're you're you're innocent until proven guilty in this country at least that's the way it's supposed to be but apparently that's not really how it works so when you're against their agenda then that's not how it's going to operate but I don't want to leave Pastor Anderson out of this so I'm going to put a quote up that he said if a man also lie with mankind as he lies with a woman both of them have committed an abomination they shall surely be put to death their blood shall be upon them Anderson said quoting the biblical passage and that my friends is the cure for AIDS he said it was right there in the Bible all along and they're out spending billions of dollars in research and testing it's curable right there because if you executed the homos like God recommends you wouldn't have all this AIDS running rampant so of course he got persecuted for that and you know you've all seen the interview that he was done the last interview he's ever done live which is great but look but he's saying executed he's look all these quotes I'm saying these are things that we all say yes but we're talking about the government doing it and they're saying that we're trying to plan and terrorize people right so I just I just want to warn people with this okay you can have whatever beliefs you want but if you go past what the Bible says on this subject then there are people out there that are turning in social media posts and getting people trying to get people arrested trying to get people put into prison there's that that person that that has come to my church a couple times is sitting in jail right now and they doctored the stuff that he said and of course so but all I'm saying is that we have to be careful not to go overboard and go past what the Bible says you understand what I'm saying so we we can't go past that teaching and obviously again if something happens to them and they get killed I'm not like gonna cry about it or something oh those poor sodomites I mean they should have been put to death already by the government so why would I be upset about the Bible says thine eyes shall not pity them what does that mean don't feel bad for them when it you know but also don't you know dance on their grave or whatever I guess but you know that here's just one thing I got a turn to accept chapter 17 I got to finish with this we're also being accused of being fascist white nationalists okay I look around this room and I don't see all white nationalists with shaved heads in here because this church has all nations representing it all skin pigments and guess what if everybody gets cut today here what color is it gonna be it's gonna be red okay we all bleed the same color because people are just people the Bible does not even teach racism at all doesn't teach it but we're being accused of being white nationalists I mean fascists we're being accused of being fascists so this has nothing to do with the sermon but I do want to just make sure this is clear this is something also that we get accused of be all the time being racist but what's the Bible say acts 1726 it says and hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on the face of the earth and have determined the times before appointed and the bounds of their habitation so one blood all nations that's what we believe that's what we teach that's what we've always teached so don't try to pin that on us either if someone's rate if someone happens to be racist that follows the preaching here they're wrong on that issue they weren't taught that from this church they're not taught that at my church so if someone is racist that's their problem it doesn't mean that they're not saved or something it just means that they're they got something wrong with them they got something wrong with their theology and you know they just have they have some kind of hate that they shouldn't have verse 27 that they should seek the Lord if happily they might feel after him and find him though he be not far from every one of us what does that mean that we want every person from every nation every ethnicity every skin pigment to be saved in the whole world isn't that what it's saying that they should seek the Lord and what and find him that's what the Bible teaches that's what we believe there's no white national fascist pastors in this movement okay and look if you're that person the Bible is condemning that the Bible says that we should you know we should be happy that they were supposed to reach to the uttermost parts of the earth we're supposed to go into all nations so it doesn't teach racism at all in fact it's totally against it so again the difference between murder and lawful execution of a cap of a criminal or capital crimes is very clear in the Bible is it not and we should rest our beliefs on what the Bible says and you know that you're right no matter what they accuse you of when it concerns the Bible the Bible's always right and the other person's wrong so whatever we believe we should be able to rest our head on not be embarrassed about it but also don't go too far with it don't go past the bounds that the Bible puts in place for us keep those boundaries and then you're gonna be safe okay but once we go past that then we're gonna get ourselves into trouble and we should be wise as serpents and harmless as doves look we should be wise in this world and and and kind of have a little bit of circumspect wisdom as we walk through this world but we also need to be what does it mean to be harmless well when's the last time you've seen an attack dove what have you seen a dove fights have you seen doves swooping down and grabbing things and taking off of them now you haven't you know why because doves are harmless they just look around and go or whatever they fly away they're harmless the Bible is saying that we should be harmless. So we should not be violent towards other people. So let's bow our heads and have a word of prayer. Heavenly Father we thank you Lord so much for the clear teaching of the Bible. I pray that you would just help us Lord to walk and be in the boundaries of what the Bible says. Help us to not go further than we should with things and Lord I pray that you'd help us when it concerns this subject to be educated on it Lord. And I pray that you would just bless everybody as they go their separate ways and bring us back to church safely tonight. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
