The one thing that I think is bringing everybody together is we all recognize that the current condition of this nation is not good. And what we mean by that is what we've seen the last four years, where anything goes, anybody does what they see is right in their own eyes. Which by the way, I saw that the liberal left is planning another no Kings Day Protest event on October 18th. And that's something that we're gonna pray against. But also that's something we should also be looking as believers, kingdom minded people and those who genuinely have a love for this nation, we should be countering that by coming together and rallying and having something else that will shine light instead of highlighting the negativity and the evil of this, no Kings Day, because that goes back to the Bible verse where it said when there was no king in Israel and everyone did what was right in their own eyes.
[00:08:38]
Politics is about justice, which involves the rights of all parties involved not being infringed, which includes God's rights first and foremost. And so what we're looking at right now is people, people are trying to rectify in their minds what actual justice looks like. What does it look like to be able to see my neighbor have rights while my rights are also not infringed upon, but ultimately while God's rights are honored, which is the standard for everything.
[00:09:46]
If you want true justice, you can't allow something illegal to happen without a consequence. And you can't ignore what people are doing right, either. And I think this brings about the larger issue, which, again, which I believe Charlie Kirk was trying to share with everybody, was like, look at. Everyone has a sense of morality in their own heart. But, yes, whose standard are you going off of? If you want to see justice and if you want to see things made right in this nation, you first have to look at truth. And then through truth, you have to understand that there is a completely different standard of honoring righteousness and ultimately justice, and that's only through God.
[00:11:32]
You can't have justice without righteousness, and you can't have righteousness without justice. So to your point, when you talk about grace and when you talk about really just honoring the freedoms that have been afforded to us, well, you have to understand, in order to get grace, there had to be a way for grace to be established, and that was through Jesus. Jesus is the standard. Jesus is the standard. He is our righteousness. So that means that's God's way of giving us grace.
[00:16:23]
If in order to address justice, you have to have a standard or God's way that we go about things, the way we go about honoring society, that will uphold the ability to honor people and to honor people's rights and ways of life.
[00:17:18]
The moment we stop having conversation is when violence begins to take over.
[00:20:00]
If this is something that is near and dear to your heart and you truly felt like you have had a turning point in your own life and you want to get involved, please help us. Email us, you know, DM us, message us, comment. Let's start finding ways to partner, to come together and to have a venue and platform where we can have conversations. But more importantly, the thing that is on Matthew and my heart is for people to begin to encounter Jesus. Look, we didn't just do this to have a debate or discussion. Yes, the issue, the, the issues of human affairs are very real and we need to have those discussions. But at the end of the day, this is ultimately about truth and releasing the truth about God and Jesus so that people's eyes can be awakened, veils can be torn off, worldly ideologies can be broken so that then we can begin to operate in our true purpose and identity in Christ, to see and experience heaven on earth.
[00:21:48]
It doesn't matter that people don't, may not say they believe in God or anything, but you're actually asking for heaven on earth. But the only way that you can do that is when you become awakened to Jesus and your identity in him. And we come together and say, okay, let's begin working and moving towards that in the power of the Holy Spirit.
[00:23:06]
We're not afraid to do altar calls. We're not afraid to get up and pray for people, share a word of knowledge in the middle of that debate if it, if, if God decides to move that way. But we desire to see this whole nation changed. And I know it starts with this generation.
[00:23:39]
There was still recognition on both sides that, hey, we are both in this fight together, both sides, all of us. And for us, though we desire to end, without a doubt, we desire to impart the wisdom of Jesus we're not going to hold back on that. And so every time we approach this, it's always going to be from a biblical standard, a biblical viewpoint. But most importantly, too, it's going to be with the heart of Jesus and the heart of compassion, but with truth.
[00:25:32]
At the end of the day, we have to be about action and we have to be now about being, being the hands and the feet of Jesus. Jesus, yes, Jesus was powerful in his speech and his communication, but you know what? He was also out there in the middle of it all. And that is where God is desiring us to be as believers, but also as just American citizens.
[00:27:30]
There are very easy ways for you to begin to assimilate into not just politics. We talked about this last night, Matt, but we're talking about the governance of human affairs in daily life. It's not polit. And since this is dealing with governing human affairs on a day to day basis, this includes biblical biblio, this includes scripture because what is the Bible? The Bible governs daily human affairs. So this is not about separation of church and state. This is about you needing to get involved because it's about us as the individual citizen being able to govern ourselves, but establishing that standard through Jesus so a governmental system doesn't have to.
[00:28:46]
If you think about this, Matt, I mean, we've had probably, what, since Roie Wade, what was that about 40, 50 years of inaction of the church? You know, we chose to stay out of so many different discussions that we needed to really be involved in. And so now it's really not an option. We must take action. We must use our voice. We must vote. Hello. We must vote. Be registered and vote. You got midterms coming up.
[00:31:16]
For those who are searching and wanting to know more about Jesus, this is about action within the local church as well. I noticed that. We've noticed that attendance has gone up local, locally with some of the churches, you know, shortly after Charlie Kirk was assassinated. Keep that going. You know, we can't just all of a sudden abandon the church either. It starts in the church and then you go out. So we need to make sure we always keep that order at the top of our mind, at the forefront.
[00:31:51]
We pray that you are also not just motivated, because that's temporary, but you are inspired, and that flame inside of you is burning to be the difference. Not look for someone to be a difference, but you're ready and you are willing to. To be the difference for. Not just for, you know, for your. In. For your. For your sphere of influence, but also, you know, your voice can carry to the national level as well.
[00:36:51]
Your daily actions, even in your sphere of influence, can, if can, cause things to be shaken and changed, even at the national level. And Charlie Kirk proved that. And so, you know, you can do the same.
[00:37:31]
Despite the divisive rhetoric that has been so ridiculously portrayed across all of your media outlets, there is a unification where people generally want to see the goodness of God begin to overtake this nation. And that is something I know that going to release an amazing outpouring of God's presence, His love, but also the manifestation of his power. And you're going to see massive amounts of people coming to the Lord.
[00:41:14]
This is time now where God is using us in the big things and the small things as well to turn this nation around for what he has desired to see as a divine reset.
[00:42:14]
We believe this is the time now that God desires all of us to not be bound to past emotions, maybe past regrets, guilt, past failures. But this is the time now to move ahead in his goodness, but also knowing who we are in Him.
[00:44:39]
This is the time. This is that turning point. Not just for the nation, but for your life. Go be and do and change the game in your city.
