00:00.110 --> 00:03.090
Amen, the title of my sermon this evening is Pushovers.

00:03.830 --> 00:06.450
And really, if you wanna have a more elaborate title,

00:06.550 --> 00:08.210
just be men who will not say no.

00:08.830 --> 00:09.950
Men who will not say no.

00:10.070 --> 00:12.030
And unfortunately we see this as kind of being

00:12.030 --> 00:14.810
an example at the beginning of Adam,

00:15.390 --> 00:16.810
hearkening under the voice of his wife.

00:16.930 --> 00:18.430
Look again at verse 17, the Bible says,

00:18.550 --> 00:19.410
and unto Adam he said,

00:19.650 --> 00:22.810
because thou hast hearkened under the voice of thy wife

00:22.810 --> 00:26.230
and hast eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee,

00:26.690 --> 00:28.550
saying thou shalt not eat of it.

00:28.550 --> 00:30.710
Cursed is the ground for thy sake,

00:30.990 --> 00:35.230
in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life.

00:35.570 --> 00:38.550
Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee,

00:38.930 --> 00:40.830
and thou shalt eat the herb of the field,

00:41.150 --> 00:44.170
and the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread

00:44.170 --> 00:46.690
till thou return to the ground for out of it

00:46.690 --> 00:48.850
was thou taken for dust thou art

00:48.850 --> 00:50.530
and the dust shalt thou return.

00:50.690 --> 00:54.370
So according to the Bible, Adam was very clearly instructed

00:54.370 --> 00:57.170
by God not to eat of the tree

00:57.170 --> 00:58.150
in the midst of the garden,

00:58.630 --> 01:00.730
which was the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

01:01.370 --> 01:02.850
And he knew that it was wrong,

01:03.170 --> 01:04.770
he knows that he shouldn't do it,

01:05.030 --> 01:06.970
yet his wife entices him.

01:07.390 --> 01:09.530
The Bible makes it clear his wife gave to him.

01:10.010 --> 01:11.130
Look at verse six, it says,

01:11.250 --> 01:13.610
and when the woman saw that the tree was good for food

01:13.610 --> 01:15.030
and that it was pleasant to the eyes

01:15.030 --> 01:16.830
and a tree to be desired to make one wife,

01:17.250 --> 01:18.790
she took of the fruit thereof and did eat

01:18.790 --> 01:20.930
and noticed this and gave also

01:21.550 --> 01:23.130
under a husband with her and he did eat.

01:23.130 --> 01:26.870
Now in verse six, it doesn't really explain

01:26.870 --> 01:28.190
what this looks like.

01:28.610 --> 01:30.090
We don't know what was said,

01:30.550 --> 01:32.690
but according to the text, something was said

01:32.690 --> 01:34.650
because notice in verse number 17,

01:34.970 --> 01:39.470
Adam had hearkened under the voice of his wife.

01:39.730 --> 01:42.870
So in some way she said something to him,

01:43.150 --> 01:45.290
whatever she said, we don't know,

01:45.430 --> 01:47.390
but essentially he listens to his wife

01:47.390 --> 01:49.290
and goes against God's commandment

01:49.290 --> 01:51.190
and does what he knows is wrong.

01:51.190 --> 01:53.030
And really he should have said no.

01:53.170 --> 01:55.510
He should have not allowed himself to eat

01:55.510 --> 01:56.590
of the fruit of the tree.

01:57.070 --> 01:58.710
Of course, I don't believe he should have allowed

01:58.710 --> 02:00.610
his wife even to have eaten of the tree.

02:00.870 --> 02:02.730
So you know, there's another layer there,

02:03.010 --> 02:05.530
but for sure he should have not allowed this.

02:05.690 --> 02:07.470
He should have not have gone along with his wife.

02:07.750 --> 02:09.970
And this is a biblical principle that the husband

02:10.630 --> 02:13.290
is in some cases supposed to tell his wife, no.

02:14.670 --> 02:16.510
Now if you read a verse prior,

02:16.510 --> 02:19.610
Lewis in verse 16, under the woman he said,

02:20.290 --> 02:23.970
I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception.

02:24.610 --> 02:27.390
In sorrow thou shalt bring forth children

02:27.390 --> 02:29.730
and thy desire shall be to thy husband.

02:29.870 --> 02:33.030
And notice this, and he shall rule over thee.

02:33.150 --> 02:37.590
So part of this Genesis creation is that the man

02:37.590 --> 02:39.630
is to have rule over his wife.

02:40.110 --> 02:42.350
Why is he wanting him to rule over her?

02:42.810 --> 02:45.130
Well, partly the Bible describes later

02:45.130 --> 02:47.330
is that the man was not deceived,

02:47.770 --> 02:50.450
but the woman being deceived was in the transgression.

02:50.610 --> 02:55.890
And so the man is to enforce God's law for him and his family

02:55.890 --> 02:57.930
and to have rules and to rule over his wife.

02:58.230 --> 03:00.050
And that would be including saying no.

03:00.690 --> 03:02.470
Now in today's society, in today's culture,

03:02.750 --> 03:05.350
just basically what I've said already is highly offensive.

03:05.950 --> 03:08.470
But let me rest assured I will be way more offensive

03:08.470 --> 03:09.430
throughout the sermon, okay?

03:09.930 --> 03:11.210
Go to Ephesians chapter five,

03:11.310 --> 03:12.450
go to Ephesians chapter five,

03:12.590 --> 03:13.870
because you know, frankly speaking,

03:13.870 --> 03:15.670
I don't really care what society thinks,

03:15.770 --> 03:17.030
I just care whatever the Bible says.

03:18.970 --> 03:21.050
And you know, men should not be pushovers.

03:21.210 --> 03:23.830
And we're in a society and a culture today that's bad

03:23.830 --> 03:26.030
because men won't say no.

03:26.530 --> 03:27.970
And they won't say no to their wives

03:27.970 --> 03:29.810
and they won't say no to women in general.

03:30.170 --> 03:32.790
And so there's a lot of pushovers in society.

03:33.310 --> 03:35.430
And point one is that husbands and men

03:35.430 --> 03:36.730
need to not be a pushover.

03:37.150 --> 03:38.910
And they need to tell their wives no.

03:39.310 --> 03:41.930
If their wife makes a mistake, they need to correct her.

03:42.310 --> 03:43.590
If the wife is in error,

03:43.590 --> 03:44.810
they need to rule over her.

03:45.250 --> 03:47.330
That men need to say no to their wives

03:47.330 --> 03:49.370
and not allow them to do certain things.

03:49.550 --> 03:51.510
And if they make mistakes to correct the issue.

03:52.070 --> 03:56.410
You know, you can't, no one is gonna be perfect.

03:57.010 --> 03:59.010
You know, it's not like men are perfect either, okay?

03:59.370 --> 04:01.790
And of course men in many cases get corrected.

04:01.870 --> 04:02.910
They get corrected by their bosses.

04:03.110 --> 04:04.170
They get corrected by society.

04:04.290 --> 04:05.390
They get corrected by their pastor.

04:05.510 --> 04:06.590
They get corrected by the world.

04:06.890 --> 04:08.190
They can get corrected by law enforcement.

04:08.430 --> 04:10.490
It's not like men don't have accountability as well.

04:10.490 --> 04:13.390
We all typically have our own form of accountability.

04:13.870 --> 04:15.550
Our own places where we're told no

04:15.550 --> 04:17.070
and we have to submit as well.

04:17.230 --> 04:20.030
But in the home, the husband is to be the one in charge

04:20.030 --> 04:22.110
and he's the one to tell the wife no.

04:22.770 --> 04:24.710
And so we need this in society.

04:24.910 --> 04:26.530
We need men to rule their houses.

04:26.690 --> 04:28.550
Look at Ephesians 5, verse 23,

04:28.750 --> 04:30.250
for husband is the head of the wife.

04:30.770 --> 04:32.730
Even as Christ is the head of the church.

04:32.990 --> 04:35.650
Do you think it's okay for Christ to tell the church no?

04:37.170 --> 04:38.810
It's called thou shalt not.

04:38.810 --> 04:39.970
It's like all over the Bible.

04:40.830 --> 04:42.650
God has no problem telling us no.

04:43.170 --> 04:46.150
So then in the same and like manner men should have

04:46.150 --> 04:48.350
thou shalt not for his household and for his family

04:48.350 --> 04:50.630
and obviously gently correcting them

04:50.630 --> 04:52.610
and at times even giving chastisement

04:52.610 --> 04:54.530
or punishment in some way he sees fit.

04:55.050 --> 04:56.870
You know, the Bible makes it clear

04:56.870 --> 04:58.510
that the Christ is the head of the church

04:58.510 --> 05:00.850
just like the husband is the head of the wife.

05:01.150 --> 05:02.590
Many of this gonna have to be rules

05:03.110 --> 05:05.010
and you're gonna have to say no at times

05:05.010 --> 05:06.730
and we need men to say no.

05:07.190 --> 05:09.690
You know, your wife is gonna screw up.

05:09.850 --> 05:10.790
That's just facts of life.

05:11.090 --> 05:12.150
And you have to say no.

05:12.730 --> 05:15.150
There are many, it's like a joke today.

05:15.790 --> 05:16.870
And I don't like it.

05:17.170 --> 05:17.870
I'm just gonna be honest with you.

05:17.910 --> 05:20.750
There's a joke today that oh, my wife's never been wrong.

05:21.370 --> 05:23.050
Lie, she has been wrong.

05:23.370 --> 05:25.390
And there are times when the husband has to say,

05:25.470 --> 05:26.010
hey, you're wrong.

05:26.730 --> 05:28.630
You know, you don't wanna live in a world

05:28.630 --> 05:31.210
in a society where men can never say

05:31.210 --> 05:32.450
to their wife that they're wrong.

05:32.690 --> 05:33.790
Can never say no.

05:34.130 --> 05:35.810
Now, let's just be honest about it.

05:35.810 --> 05:37.850
If a man tries to rule his house,

05:38.050 --> 05:39.550
if a man tries to exert authority,

05:39.790 --> 05:41.630
there'll probably be fights every once in a while.

05:42.250 --> 05:44.370
It's like, why is there fights in a marriage?

05:44.830 --> 05:46.670
Okay, well, number one is cause you like each other.

05:46.990 --> 05:47.670
I'm gonna just be honest.

05:47.990 --> 05:49.090
You don't fight with people you don't like,

05:49.190 --> 05:50.130
you just leave, okay?

05:50.530 --> 05:51.690
You fight cause you like each other.

05:51.790 --> 05:52.610
And the second thing is,

05:52.630 --> 05:54.450
is because there's typically a husband

05:54.450 --> 05:55.450
telling his wife no.

05:55.850 --> 05:57.470
You know, these couples that say I never fight,

05:57.830 --> 05:59.870
well, it's possible if you don't like each other

05:59.870 --> 06:02.590
or you do whatever your wife says every single time.

06:02.850 --> 06:04.670
That's pretty much the only way to not have fighting

06:05.230 --> 06:07.390
because the reality is there's gonna be conflict.

06:07.650 --> 06:08.750
There's gonna be no,

06:08.950 --> 06:10.290
there's gonna be things that you don't like.

06:10.450 --> 06:12.790
And as a result, there's gonna be some tension.

06:12.970 --> 06:13.830
There's gonna be some conflict.

06:14.170 --> 06:16.190
You know, it doesn't bother me when couples fight.

06:16.810 --> 06:18.070
You know, it's actually in some cases

06:18.070 --> 06:20.010
more healthy than a couple that never fights.

06:20.250 --> 06:22.090
Just because in some cases,

06:22.090 --> 06:23.970
you're kind of wondering like what's really going on

06:23.970 --> 06:25.390
in that particular context.

06:25.410 --> 06:26.690
Because if you're around another center

06:27.170 --> 06:28.610
for any length of time,

06:28.950 --> 06:30.690
you get irritated with each other.

06:30.790 --> 06:31.810
You get annoyed by each other.

06:31.990 --> 06:33.430
You're gonna rub each other wrong.

06:33.590 --> 06:34.270
You're gonna have problems.

06:34.270 --> 06:35.010
You're gonna have conflicts.

06:35.210 --> 06:35.970
That's just life.

06:36.530 --> 06:38.150
You know, you can have the honeymoon phase,

06:38.330 --> 06:40.190
but the honeymoon ends, okay?

06:40.730 --> 06:41.390
And we all get it.

06:41.610 --> 06:43.510
You may not even got all the way through the honeymoon.

06:43.750 --> 06:44.030
Okay?

06:44.450 --> 06:45.710
But at the end of the day,

06:46.010 --> 06:46.970
you know, there's gonna be tension.

06:47.150 --> 06:48.050
There's gonna be escalation.

06:48.150 --> 06:48.430
And you know what?

06:48.470 --> 06:49.930
We need men that are gonna say no

06:49.930 --> 06:51.810
and they're gonna rule their house.

06:51.850 --> 06:53.330
They're gonna be the head of their wife.

06:53.630 --> 06:55.470
And notice Christ is the savior of the body

06:55.470 --> 06:57.130
in the same way that husbands are trying

06:57.130 --> 06:58.530
to save their wives from danger

06:58.530 --> 07:00.170
from problems by telling them no.

07:00.590 --> 07:02.710
Therefore as the church is subject unto Christ

07:02.710 --> 07:04.010
to let the wives beat his own husbands,

07:04.010 --> 07:04.990
notice this in everything.

07:06.350 --> 07:07.670
Husbands love your wives,

07:07.790 --> 07:08.990
even as Christ also loved the church

07:08.990 --> 07:09.890
and gave himself for it.

07:10.610 --> 07:12.730
No, again, the Bible's kind of trying

07:12.730 --> 07:14.270
to use two different things

07:14.270 --> 07:16.210
to really illustrate what it should look like.

07:16.670 --> 07:17.950
Yeah, you rule over your wife

07:17.950 --> 07:18.790
and yeah, you have rules

07:18.790 --> 07:20.730
and yeah, you're trying to guide her and instruct her

07:20.730 --> 07:22.410
and it could even have consequences.

07:22.750 --> 07:24.690
But at the same time, you're supposed to be loving her

07:24.690 --> 07:26.370
and you're supposed to care for her

07:26.370 --> 07:28.270
and you're supposed to treat her as your own body.

07:28.590 --> 07:30.610
You're supposed to nourish it and cherish it

07:30.610 --> 07:32.090
as you would your own flesh,

07:32.270 --> 07:33.610
as the Bible describes this kind

07:33.610 --> 07:35.450
of situation, but it's like yeah,

07:35.650 --> 07:37.750
I can discipline my body.

07:38.170 --> 07:38.850
What is that?

07:39.070 --> 07:40.390
It's just not eating everything I want.

07:41.210 --> 07:44.170
I mean, hopefully most people exercise some discipline,

07:44.350 --> 07:46.430
some self-control over their body

07:46.430 --> 07:47.990
and let me explain something to you.

07:48.450 --> 07:50.330
Not eating can hurt.

07:52.010 --> 07:55.030
Exercise can have some pain associated with it.

07:55.410 --> 07:57.010
You know, just different aspects

07:57.010 --> 07:59.210
of self-control over your body, grooming.

07:59.670 --> 08:00.630
All the different aspects

08:00.630 --> 08:02.550
that come to taking care of your body.

08:02.550 --> 08:03.930
But you know, you don't groom yourself

08:03.930 --> 08:04.870
because you hate yourself,

08:04.950 --> 08:06.330
you groom yourself because you love yourself.

08:06.770 --> 08:09.090
You take care of your body because you love your flesh

08:09.090 --> 08:10.330
and because you love your body

08:10.330 --> 08:11.910
and you want to take good care of it.

08:11.950 --> 08:12.590
You want to be healthy

08:12.590 --> 08:14.870
and in the same manner, this is how marriage should be,

08:15.030 --> 08:17.650
that what you're doing is you're trying

08:17.650 --> 08:18.710
to take care of your wife

08:18.710 --> 08:20.630
and you're trying to nourish your wife

08:20.630 --> 08:21.690
and you cherish your wife.

08:21.790 --> 08:22.570
You think she's very special.

08:22.930 --> 08:23.970
You don't want to harm her.

08:24.110 --> 08:25.050
You don't want to injure her.

08:25.370 --> 08:26.070
You don't want to do anything

08:26.070 --> 08:28.710
that would be like a negative consequence

08:28.710 --> 08:30.070
in a long-term situation.

08:30.070 --> 08:32.910
You're only doing things that are good for them ultimately

08:33.310 --> 08:34.530
and you would never want to cause

08:34.530 --> 08:36.930
something that's going to be a permanent injury.

08:37.330 --> 08:38.570
You know, skipping a meal

08:38.570 --> 08:40.890
is not going to cause a permanent injury, right?

08:40.990 --> 08:41.570
It may be uncomfortable.

08:41.950 --> 08:43.430
So it's like telling your wife, no,

08:44.050 --> 08:46.710
isn't going to be the reason why your marriage failed.

08:47.210 --> 08:47.490
Okay?

08:48.070 --> 08:48.570
But you know what?

08:48.770 --> 08:49.770
Never telling her no

08:49.770 --> 08:51.770
could be a reason why your marriage could fail

08:51.770 --> 08:54.310
in the same way that never telling your body no

08:54.770 --> 08:56.510
and just eating until you just,

08:56.550 --> 08:58.910
you can't even physically do it anymore,

08:59.370 --> 09:01.350
could harm the body long-term.

09:01.530 --> 09:03.150
It could have negative consequences.

09:03.430 --> 09:04.730
So we have to use the illustrations

09:04.730 --> 09:07.710
the Bible are illustrating here for us to understand it.

09:07.870 --> 09:09.130
Notice even cleaning ourselves.

09:09.310 --> 09:10.470
Look at verse 26,

09:10.870 --> 09:12.270
that he might sanctify and cleanse it

09:12.270 --> 09:13.590
with the washing of water by the word.

09:13.850 --> 09:14.750
Why do we take showers?

09:15.410 --> 09:16.670
It's because we love our body

09:17.070 --> 09:19.390
and we don't like the smell of our body

09:19.390 --> 09:20.430
when it's not washed.

09:20.590 --> 09:21.490
It can smell gross.

09:21.850 --> 09:23.890
And the same way that a relationship

09:24.390 --> 09:25.810
that's never being cleaned up,

09:25.810 --> 09:29.490
that's never being essentially a wife

09:29.490 --> 09:30.470
and a husband relationship

09:30.930 --> 09:32.930
where the husband's never correcting his wife,

09:33.490 --> 09:34.870
you're going to smell that body odor.

09:35.350 --> 09:35.370
Okay?

09:35.750 --> 09:36.590
And I'm not saying literally,

09:36.770 --> 09:38.130
I'm saying by this metaphor,

09:38.570 --> 09:39.590
it's going to kind of stink.

09:39.950 --> 09:41.270
It's going to kind of be smelly

09:41.270 --> 09:43.710
and it's going to be off-putting to other people around.

09:44.090 --> 09:45.050
What does body odor do?

09:45.510 --> 09:47.610
Everybody smells it and it smells bad

09:47.610 --> 09:48.490
and it's off-putting.

09:48.630 --> 09:50.510
In the same way that a wife

09:50.510 --> 09:52.510
that's just mouthing off about her husband,

09:53.050 --> 09:54.470
criticizing her husband and open,

09:55.050 --> 09:56.470
just being obnoxious,

09:56.570 --> 09:57.570
won't listen to her husband,

09:58.170 --> 09:59.590
doesn't respect her husband's opinion.

10:00.250 --> 10:01.790
You know, that's just really off-putting.

10:02.090 --> 10:03.090
It makes you feel uncomfortable.

10:03.850 --> 10:05.170
I mean, if you've ever been around a couple

10:05.170 --> 10:07.150
and then the wife just runs her mouth

10:07.150 --> 10:08.550
to her husband in front of y'all,

10:08.670 --> 10:09.710
you're just kind of like, whoa,

10:09.950 --> 10:11.510
like, I'll just go over here.

10:11.810 --> 10:13.510
You know, I don't want to be around.

10:13.630 --> 10:14.530
It's just, it's weird.

10:15.170 --> 10:15.630
It's gross.

10:16.290 --> 10:17.350
And in the same way, you know,

10:17.390 --> 10:18.330
sometimes you have to say like,

10:18.430 --> 10:19.710
hey, no, don't say that.

10:19.810 --> 10:20.530
That's not appropriate.

10:20.690 --> 10:21.890
You're not allowed to talk to me that way.

10:21.890 --> 10:24.430
You know, this is a healthy marriage.

10:25.330 --> 10:26.810
Says that he might present it to himself

10:26.810 --> 10:28.150
a glorious church not having spot

10:28.150 --> 10:29.370
or wrinkle or any such thing,

10:29.750 --> 10:31.110
but that it should be holy and without blemish.

10:31.510 --> 10:33.170
So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies.

10:33.670 --> 10:34.550
He that loveeth his wife,

10:34.750 --> 10:36.670
loveeth himself for no man

10:36.670 --> 10:38.350
ever yet hated his own flesh,

10:38.770 --> 10:39.830
but nourished it than cherished it,

10:39.910 --> 10:40.890
even as the Lord of the church,

10:41.010 --> 10:42.110
for he were members of his body

10:42.110 --> 10:43.170
and of his flesh and of his bones.

10:43.590 --> 10:45.310
For this cause shall a man leave father and mother

10:45.310 --> 10:46.730
until he joineth in his wife

10:46.730 --> 10:47.770
and they too shall be one flesh.

10:48.250 --> 10:49.290
So again, you know,

10:49.290 --> 10:51.850
this is a great passage about marriage,

10:52.190 --> 10:54.190
but notice that the emphasis is

10:54.190 --> 10:55.930
on the husband being the head,

10:56.330 --> 11:00.250
on the husband washing his wife with the word

11:00.790 --> 11:02.350
and basically being in charge,

11:02.670 --> 11:05.350
trying to clean up himself and her

11:05.350 --> 11:07.410
with the word of God, with the Bible,

11:07.730 --> 11:08.310
having rules.

11:08.730 --> 11:10.230
This is what creates a healthy marriage.

11:10.430 --> 11:12.310
Just like washing creates a healthy body.

11:13.110 --> 11:14.290
You know, washing yourself with the word

11:14.290 --> 11:15.210
creates a healthy marriage,

11:15.330 --> 11:17.690
creates a healthy environment for society.

11:17.690 --> 11:20.670
Why is it that we have a world that's screwed up

11:20.670 --> 11:22.750
is that men won't correct their wives,

11:23.250 --> 11:25.670
men won't basically tell their wives no,

11:26.150 --> 11:28.390
that men just harken on the voice of their wives

11:28.390 --> 11:30.570
and do things that are sinful and against God's word.

11:31.070 --> 11:34.930
And we have a major, a major crisis of feminism

11:34.930 --> 11:35.790
in this country.

11:36.470 --> 11:36.950
Major.

11:37.710 --> 11:38.810
This is not minor, folks.

11:39.150 --> 11:42.490
There is a woman who had murdered three of her children

11:42.970 --> 11:45.010
and we have hundreds of thousands,

11:45.210 --> 11:46.270
if not millions of women

11:46.270 --> 11:48.430
going online empathizing with the situation,

11:49.070 --> 11:50.410
acting like it's kind of normal,

11:50.950 --> 11:52.630
acting like it's kind of reasonable,

11:53.010 --> 11:55.990
acting like having children is somehow a negative thing.

11:56.370 --> 11:57.570
And it's just, it's insane.

11:57.910 --> 11:58.530
It's insane.

11:58.730 --> 11:59.970
Our country's lost its mind.

12:00.390 --> 12:02.970
We have women in virtually every position

12:03.430 --> 12:04.610
in our government right now.

12:05.030 --> 12:06.730
We have women, law enforcement,

12:06.990 --> 12:09.610
which is just nonsensical, if you ask me.

12:09.750 --> 12:11.110
And again, policing the streets.

12:11.530 --> 12:13.870
I get it if you just have a woman on the phone

12:13.870 --> 12:16.210
or you have a woman for a specific triage unit.

12:16.510 --> 12:17.670
Hey, I'm not gonna throw stones,

12:17.930 --> 12:19.830
but we have women policing the streets,

12:19.890 --> 12:20.830
which is nonsense, folks.

12:21.170 --> 12:22.490
We have women in the military.

12:22.810 --> 12:24.990
We've lowered standards in Marine Corps

12:24.990 --> 12:27.070
and in other departments of the military

12:27.070 --> 12:28.690
just so women can be in those positions.

12:29.070 --> 12:31.790
We have DEI, we have all kinds of women in the workforce

12:31.790 --> 12:33.610
and so much adultery in America.

12:33.890 --> 12:35.290
This is not a minor problem.

12:35.310 --> 12:36.630
This is a major problem.

12:36.970 --> 12:40.230
And it's because men will not just say no to their wives.

12:40.790 --> 12:41.910
We have women pastors.

12:42.410 --> 12:44.150
We have women that are running churches.

12:44.610 --> 12:47.470
We have women that are just out of control in society

12:47.470 --> 12:51.910
and we need men to say no and not be a pushover.

12:52.210 --> 12:55.010
Look, we're literally here because of this situation

12:55.010 --> 12:56.930
because Adam didn't tell his wife, no.

12:58.350 --> 13:01.930
You wanna go back to the beginning problems of mankind?

13:02.510 --> 13:05.210
It's this, a man harkening under the voice of his wife.

13:05.450 --> 13:07.590
That's what the Bible records is the first transgression.

13:08.290 --> 13:10.010
Why would I think that the devil went to a different

13:10.010 --> 13:12.450
playbook when it's just been so effective so far?

13:13.310 --> 13:14.650
And again, this is a major issue.

13:15.610 --> 13:18.290
We'll go to Titus chapter two, since we're really close

13:18.290 --> 13:21.070
and we'll just revisit a few verses this evening

13:21.070 --> 13:22.530
that we read this morning as well.

13:23.390 --> 13:26.150
Titus chapter two, look at verse number three.

13:26.270 --> 13:28.330
The Bible says, the aged women likewise

13:28.330 --> 13:31.210
that they be in behavior, look at verse four

13:31.210 --> 13:32.710
that they may teach the young women to be sober

13:32.710 --> 13:34.510
to love their husbands, to love their children.

13:35.130 --> 13:37.810
Verse five to be discreet, chase keepers at home.

13:37.810 --> 13:41.630
Notice this good obedient to their own husband.

13:41.870 --> 13:44.930
So on one side, the Bible says husbands rule your wives.

13:45.330 --> 13:46.430
It says be the head.

13:46.930 --> 13:47.750
It says they should be subject.

13:48.010 --> 13:49.570
On the other side, it's saying hey, be subject,

13:49.990 --> 13:51.570
be good, be obedient.

13:52.170 --> 13:53.810
So again, from every angle,

13:54.210 --> 13:56.770
the Bible is saying the exact same narrative consistently.

13:57.450 --> 13:59.690
How is a wife to be obedient to her husband

13:59.690 --> 14:02.090
if he doesn't have rules, if he doesn't tell her no,

14:02.550 --> 14:03.810
then you're not even giving her an opportunity

14:03.810 --> 14:04.370
to be obedient.

14:05.170 --> 14:07.150
We have to have men that are willing to say no.

14:07.150 --> 14:09.210
And again, saying no out of love,

14:09.550 --> 14:12.110
saying no because they nourish and cherish their wives,

14:12.330 --> 14:14.310
saying no because they want to protect their wives,

14:14.570 --> 14:16.990
saying no because they want good things for their wives,

14:17.170 --> 14:17.590
obviously.

14:18.150 --> 14:19.450
We're not saying just saying no

14:19.450 --> 14:21.170
because you're mean-spirited or a jerk.

14:21.630 --> 14:22.250
And I get that.

14:22.490 --> 14:24.250
And of course, this is what people do is they'll say,

14:24.490 --> 14:27.330
oh, so you're saying these mean-jerk losers

14:27.330 --> 14:30.310
can just trash their wives, absolutely not.

14:30.910 --> 14:32.290
You know, we're in a fundamental Baptist church.

14:32.630 --> 14:33.610
I don't think we're hanging out

14:33.610 --> 14:35.530
with a bunch of derelict drug addicts

14:35.530 --> 14:38.150
that are just these mean gangbangers

14:38.150 --> 14:40.190
that are asking their wives to commit crimes or something.

14:40.450 --> 14:42.450
Like, why are we going to these weird hypotheticals

14:42.450 --> 14:43.350
that don't even exist anyways?

14:44.370 --> 14:46.570
You know, those type of people are so far

14:46.570 --> 14:48.410
from anything in the Bible right now

14:48.410 --> 14:50.250
that I'm not really worried about their scenario.

14:50.610 --> 14:51.150
You know what I'm worried about?

14:51.230 --> 14:52.290
I'm worried about your scenario

14:52.290 --> 14:54.290
and a normal, healthy marriage of people

14:54.290 --> 14:56.090
that are going to church three times a week

14:56.470 --> 14:57.750
reading a King James Bible,

14:58.330 --> 15:00.150
you having the courage and the boldest

15:00.150 --> 15:02.310
to just say to your wife, no, occasionally, right?

15:02.590 --> 15:04.750
Because it's good for her because you know it's right.

15:04.750 --> 15:06.550
Because you know that's what the Bible says.

15:06.910 --> 15:09.310
Go to Proverbs 31, go to Proverbs 31.

15:10.850 --> 15:12.250
Now again, this is scary.

15:12.430 --> 15:14.410
This is scary to women because they just think like,

15:14.530 --> 15:17.370
oh man, you know, if my husband tells me no,

15:17.830 --> 15:18.850
I'm going to miss out.

15:19.530 --> 15:20.950
Miss out on what exactly?

15:21.930 --> 15:24.410
Miss out on the fruit that God said not to eat?

15:25.110 --> 15:27.530
Miss out on all the extra pain

15:27.530 --> 15:28.790
that was going to come with childbirth?

15:29.110 --> 15:30.310
Because that's what you missed out on.

15:30.970 --> 15:31.670
According to the Bible,

15:31.670 --> 15:34.330
you would have not had as bad a pregnancy

15:34.910 --> 15:36.110
by listening to your husband

15:36.570 --> 15:37.890
and just not eating of the fruit.

15:38.070 --> 15:38.850
By eating of the fruit,

15:39.030 --> 15:40.730
now your pregnancy's way worse.

15:41.830 --> 15:42.870
I mean, that's just the Bible.

15:43.550 --> 15:44.610
He said he's going to multiply

15:44.610 --> 15:45.690
thy sorrow and conception.

15:46.250 --> 15:48.090
I didn't write that, God said that.

15:48.230 --> 15:49.390
And God said that was a punishment

15:49.390 --> 15:50.870
for not doing what the husband said.

15:51.150 --> 15:52.690
So am I supposed to then randomly believe

15:52.690 --> 15:53.790
that it'd be different

15:54.310 --> 15:56.970
that in future decisions when a husband says no,

15:57.150 --> 15:59.030
it wouldn't be possibly protecting a wife

15:59.030 --> 16:01.690
from literal pain, from other anguish,

16:01.810 --> 16:04.010
from other sorrows, from financial ruin,

16:04.370 --> 16:05.930
from all kinds of other issues, you know?

16:06.230 --> 16:08.670
There's a reason why women should harken

16:08.670 --> 16:10.290
under their husband, because they're looking out for them,

16:10.350 --> 16:11.110
because they love them,

16:11.170 --> 16:12.710
because they want to do good under them, okay?

16:13.390 --> 16:15.510
Proverbs chapter 31, look at verse 12,

16:15.630 --> 16:16.990
the Bible says she will do him good

16:16.990 --> 16:18.470
and not evil all the days of her life.

16:18.950 --> 16:20.590
You know, this is the ideal woman.

16:21.930 --> 16:24.750
And as a parent, we give rules to our children

16:25.270 --> 16:28.210
so that they'll obey us from an ideal perspective.

16:28.210 --> 16:30.330
But we understand they're never gonna be perfect, okay?

16:30.590 --> 16:32.330
But we should still hold them to a perfect standard.

16:32.610 --> 16:34.650
I expect my children to obey me.

16:34.830 --> 16:36.830
I'm not saying like, it's okay to disobey me.

16:37.390 --> 16:38.250
It's okay to be bad.

16:38.550 --> 16:39.730
I know they will be bad,

16:39.810 --> 16:40.850
and I know they will disobey me,

16:40.850 --> 16:42.210
but then when they do, I'm saying,

16:42.250 --> 16:43.810
hey, you should be punished, you're holding the standard.

16:44.030 --> 16:46.330
Seriously, women are never gonna be this standard

16:46.330 --> 16:48.410
of always perfect, I get it,

16:48.570 --> 16:50.790
but shouldn't we try to hold our wives to this standard?

16:51.290 --> 16:53.490
So what I'm saying is when she's not good,

16:53.750 --> 16:55.090
shouldn't we say, hey, you should be good.

16:55.610 --> 16:58.810
When she's not doing you good all the days of her life,

16:58.850 --> 17:00.510
she's doing you evil, can't you say, hey,

17:00.690 --> 17:03.870
you're supposed to do good to me today, not evil to me,

17:04.030 --> 17:05.710
and tell her that she should be different.

17:05.930 --> 17:07.410
Tell her she should act this way.

17:07.730 --> 17:08.710
Give her some instruction.

17:09.170 --> 17:11.410
And you know what, when a woman does her husband evil,

17:11.910 --> 17:12.750
you know what the husband should say?

17:13.070 --> 17:14.250
You're not supposed to do that.

17:14.550 --> 17:16.130
You need to correct it, you need to fix it.

17:16.450 --> 17:17.450
That's what he should do.

17:18.190 --> 17:20.430
He shouldn't just allow his wife to do him evil,

17:20.910 --> 17:24.550
disrespect him, do things that are contrary to him.

17:24.990 --> 17:27.710
She should only do him good, only speak positive of him.

17:27.790 --> 17:30.490
Look at verse 26, she opened her mouth with wisdom,

17:31.010 --> 17:33.010
and in her tongue is the law of kindness.

17:33.810 --> 17:35.890
You notice, this is what the woman should be like.

17:36.290 --> 17:37.750
She should be speaking with wisdom.

17:38.070 --> 17:39.810
She should make sure that what she's saying is kind,

17:40.250 --> 17:41.150
is positive.

17:41.610 --> 17:43.070
She's not tearing down her husband.

17:43.630 --> 17:44.990
She's not trashing her husband.

17:45.350 --> 17:47.370
You know, women, if you have a complaint

17:47.370 --> 17:49.090
to your husband, you need to tell your husband

17:49.090 --> 17:49.990
and God, that's it.

17:51.270 --> 17:53.270
You should not be going around trashing your husband,

17:53.270 --> 17:54.830
talking negatively about your husband.

17:55.090 --> 17:56.190
You know, what should be the ideal

17:56.190 --> 17:58.230
is that you have the law of kindness on your tongue,

17:58.350 --> 18:00.170
and when you open your mouth about your husband,

18:00.570 --> 18:01.470
it is to what?

18:01.650 --> 18:03.110
It is to praise him, to lift him up,

18:03.710 --> 18:05.770
and hey, if there's not much to say,

18:06.010 --> 18:07.250
well then just, I guess you have to be quiet.

18:07.870 --> 18:09.030
But you know, at the end of the day,

18:09.090 --> 18:10.950
you shouldn't be going around criticizing your husband,

18:11.510 --> 18:12.430
tearing down your husband,

18:12.630 --> 18:13.810
speaking negatively about your husband,

18:14.130 --> 18:15.070
and look, this happens.

18:15.690 --> 18:17.090
This happens where women go around

18:17.090 --> 18:18.890
complaining about how they don't have money,

18:19.230 --> 18:20.970
or complaining about what their husband does,

18:20.970 --> 18:24.030
or complaining about the husband's attitude,

18:24.170 --> 18:25.350
or complaining of this and that.

18:25.490 --> 18:26.530
It's just like, you know what?

18:27.070 --> 18:27.950
That's inappropriate.

18:28.650 --> 18:30.610
That's not comely, that's not seemly,

18:30.710 --> 18:32.990
it's not meat, it's not what's right.

18:33.570 --> 18:34.970
She should only be opening her mouth

18:34.970 --> 18:36.870
to say positive things about her husband.

18:37.570 --> 18:39.710
Go to Proverbs 9, go backwards to Proverbs 9.

18:42.330 --> 18:44.110
So yeah, a couple more verses on this.

18:44.290 --> 18:45.590
We're just, I'm just showing you a lot of Bible.

18:46.310 --> 18:47.170
I hope you like Bible.

18:47.610 --> 18:49.550
Proverbs 9, look at verse one.

18:49.990 --> 18:52.350
The Bible says wisdom have build at her house,

18:52.790 --> 18:54.210
she have hewn out her seven pillars.

18:54.390 --> 18:57.950
Now, this is kind of like a personification of wisdom

18:57.950 --> 18:59.730
and is describing it in a female sense.

19:00.270 --> 19:02.930
So I think you could take an extrapolation in this

19:02.930 --> 19:05.070
and say, this is kind of like how women

19:05.070 --> 19:06.430
should be in the household as well,

19:06.530 --> 19:07.830
is that they would be building their house.

19:08.230 --> 19:10.490
And again, notice in this context,

19:10.650 --> 19:12.850
wisdom is building the house, right?

19:13.110 --> 19:13.990
It's doing good in the house,

19:14.050 --> 19:15.210
but it's like a positive, edifying.

19:15.650 --> 19:17.710
Edifying is to build up, it's a building house.

19:17.710 --> 19:19.670
You can take this literally, metaphorically.

19:19.790 --> 19:20.990
I don't care which way you take it, it's right.

19:21.750 --> 19:21.990
Okay?

19:22.610 --> 19:26.030
But that contrasted in verse 13 to the foolish woman,

19:26.410 --> 19:28.090
a foolish woman is clamorous,

19:28.790 --> 19:31.450
she is simple and no with nothing.

19:31.710 --> 19:34.390
For she's sitting at the door of her house

19:34.390 --> 19:37.310
on a seat in the high places of the city.

19:37.630 --> 19:40.110
So it's like one woman's building her house.

19:40.210 --> 19:41.710
She's like focused on working on her house

19:41.710 --> 19:42.830
and doing stuff to build up her house.

19:43.130 --> 19:45.170
The other woman is just sitting outside,

19:45.910 --> 19:49.230
just elevating herself and really

19:49.230 --> 19:51.510
just being a loud, obnoxious person.

19:52.150 --> 19:53.810
I mean, that's just what the text is saying.

19:54.170 --> 19:55.070
What is clamorous?

19:55.530 --> 19:58.150
Making a loud and confused noise.

20:00.670 --> 20:02.730
It's just a loud, it's clamorous, okay?

20:03.350 --> 20:04.210
And why confused?

20:04.530 --> 20:05.270
Well, think about it.

20:05.330 --> 20:05.890
What is this woman?

20:06.330 --> 20:07.070
She's simple.

20:07.810 --> 20:11.210
And again, that just means that she's lacking education,

20:11.450 --> 20:14.110
lacking knowledge, lacking wisdom, lacking information.

20:14.110 --> 20:15.950
Like she doesn't really know anything,

20:16.550 --> 20:18.830
but she just wants to hear herself talk.

20:19.090 --> 20:21.530
So she's just, she's elevating herself

20:21.530 --> 20:23.170
into a position of status.

20:23.390 --> 20:25.350
She's elevating herself to where,

20:25.630 --> 20:28.390
hey, I want everybody to hear what I have to say.

20:28.810 --> 20:31.470
I mean, look, she's sitting in a seat,

20:31.710 --> 20:32.550
according to the Bible,

20:32.650 --> 20:33.790
she's sitting at the door of her house

20:33.790 --> 20:36.550
on a seat in the high places of the city.

20:36.610 --> 20:38.650
It's like, she's really elevating herself

20:39.110 --> 20:42.070
and really trying to get her voice out there,

20:42.450 --> 20:44.090
but she doesn't really know anything.

20:44.710 --> 20:45.470
She doesn't really have,

20:45.670 --> 20:47.130
she's not adding to the conversation.

20:47.710 --> 20:50.170
She's not benefiting anybody from hearing her talk.

20:50.550 --> 20:54.790
She's just making a loud, obnoxious sound that's confusing.

20:55.370 --> 20:56.430
Why is it confusing?

20:56.870 --> 20:58.650
Because she doesn't even know what she's saying.

20:58.990 --> 21:00.330
She's contradicting herself.

21:00.790 --> 21:03.410
She's saying things that are just contrary to the Bible.

21:03.850 --> 21:06.590
She's saying things that have already been proven false

21:06.930 --> 21:09.570
by just history, facts, math, whatever.

21:10.090 --> 21:11.370
She's just saying stuff

21:11.370 --> 21:12.690
and she's just like, this isn't real.

21:13.490 --> 21:14.850
She's, I mean, this is basically a woman

21:14.850 --> 21:16.970
expounding the Flat Earth theory, okay?

21:18.130 --> 21:19.390
What would be a woman like this?

21:19.490 --> 21:20.570
I don't know, like Candace Owens.

21:21.050 --> 21:23.890
Just getting up and look, she just gets up there

21:23.890 --> 21:26.270
and she just blabs and just says nonsense.

21:26.810 --> 21:28.870
She says things that are provably false.

21:29.370 --> 21:31.530
She gets up and just says things that are contradictory

21:32.110 --> 21:34.770
and it's like, she's just not highly educated.

21:35.350 --> 21:37.650
She's just not well-versed in a lot of subjects

21:37.650 --> 21:39.330
that she constantly gives an opinion on.

21:39.330 --> 21:42.610
Now maybe she's educated in some subjects

21:42.610 --> 21:44.730
and hey, if you're really educated in a certain area,

21:44.970 --> 21:45.650
talk about it.

21:45.850 --> 21:46.290
But you know what?

21:46.490 --> 21:47.830
I've noticed with her, she'll get up

21:47.830 --> 21:48.590
and she'll just talk about things

21:48.590 --> 21:49.870
she has no idea what she's talking about.

21:50.350 --> 21:52.930
And look, does she have degrees in science?

21:53.350 --> 21:57.210
Does she have degrees and astronomy and stuff like this

21:57.210 --> 21:58.770
that she can intelligently speak about

21:58.770 --> 21:59.710
the shape of the earth?

22:00.170 --> 22:01.170
You know what, just shut up then.

22:01.930 --> 22:03.470
Why are you getting up and expounding

22:03.470 --> 22:04.090
this type of things?

22:04.450 --> 22:07.850
And look, it really embodies her so well

22:07.850 --> 22:09.450
because even when she got up, she's like,

22:09.510 --> 22:10.830
I'm not saying the earth is flat.

22:11.550 --> 22:12.710
I'm just saying it's really interesting.

22:13.510 --> 22:15.750
I'm just saying we should kinda look into it

22:15.750 --> 22:17.010
and just confusing.

22:17.410 --> 22:18.570
It's like, so are you for it?

22:18.850 --> 22:19.770
Are you not for it?

22:19.950 --> 22:20.670
Do you believe it?

22:20.750 --> 22:21.550
Do you not believe it?

22:21.610 --> 22:22.190
Does it make sense?

22:22.310 --> 22:22.930
Does it not make sense?

22:23.150 --> 22:24.870
And again, this is just, some people,

22:24.970 --> 22:26.110
they just turn on the camera

22:26.110 --> 22:27.870
because they just wanna hear themselves talk.

22:28.230 --> 22:30.450
And it's saying, this is what the foolish woman is like.

22:31.110 --> 22:31.350
Okay?

22:31.810 --> 22:33.050
And you know what a husband should do?

22:33.250 --> 22:34.650
He should turn off the camera.

22:35.450 --> 22:36.570
He should say, no!

22:37.430 --> 22:38.690
You're embarrassing me!

22:39.370 --> 22:41.990
Look, I can't imagine how embarrassed I would be

22:41.990 --> 22:43.770
if my wife got and made a video

22:43.770 --> 22:46.610
and said that she was thinking about the flat earth theory.

22:47.350 --> 22:49.470
She's reading books on the flat earth theory

22:49.470 --> 22:52.770
and thinking it's really interesting and really engaging.

22:53.570 --> 22:55.730
And she was like, hey, I was trying to laugh

22:55.730 --> 22:57.210
about how stupid people are.

22:57.550 --> 22:58.710
And so I was reading this book

22:58.710 --> 22:59.870
about how stupid flat earthers are.

22:59.910 --> 23:00.490
Okay, maybe.

23:00.850 --> 23:03.210
But even then, it's just like, it's just silly.

23:04.010 --> 23:05.470
It's a foolish woman getting up,

23:05.470 --> 23:07.090
just expounding this kind of stuff.

23:07.950 --> 23:10.310
And, you know, men should be telling their women,

23:10.470 --> 23:12.170
hey, if you don't know what you're talking about,

23:12.270 --> 23:12.790
just shut up.

23:14.350 --> 23:15.010
That's mean.

23:15.490 --> 23:16.350
You know, you just think, yeah,

23:16.630 --> 23:17.810
I think that women should shut up

23:17.810 --> 23:18.650
if they don't know what they're talking about.

23:19.170 --> 23:21.450
Go to Proverbs chapter 25, go to Proverbs 25.

23:22.410 --> 23:24.510
Foolish women getting up and just blabbing

23:24.510 --> 23:25.310
and just saying whatever.

23:25.950 --> 23:28.370
The Bible says in Proverbs 25, look at verse 28,

23:30.050 --> 23:33.910
he that at no rule over his own spirit

23:33.910 --> 23:35.990
is like a city that has broken down without walls.

23:36.530 --> 23:38.450
You know, we should control ourselves.

23:39.070 --> 23:41.470
And if, as men, we are to control ourselves,

23:41.590 --> 23:43.010
the Bible says we're supposed to treat our wife

23:43.010 --> 23:44.570
as our own body, meaning you need

23:44.570 --> 23:45.790
to control your wife as well.

23:46.550 --> 23:47.610
And you need to have rule over that.

23:47.730 --> 23:50.130
Otherwise, you're like a city that's broken down

23:50.130 --> 23:53.350
and without walls, meaning it's uncontrollable,

23:53.690 --> 23:55.590
it's wild, you never know what's gonna happen.

23:56.270 --> 23:57.370
It's, you're not protected.

23:57.930 --> 23:59.490
What is the point of having walls?

24:02.170 --> 24:03.450
It's to keep things out.

24:04.070 --> 24:04.410
That's it.

24:04.670 --> 24:05.210
That's the reason.

24:05.350 --> 24:06.270
Why do you have a gate?

24:06.610 --> 24:07.470
It's to keep things out.

24:08.170 --> 24:09.250
That's the reason for the most part.

24:09.310 --> 24:11.470
I mean, you could argue that in some cases

24:11.470 --> 24:14.650
you keep some things in, like a dog or a prisoner,

24:15.130 --> 24:17.590
but for the most part, walls for a city

24:17.590 --> 24:19.190
is to keep things out of the city.

24:19.410 --> 24:22.630
By and large, it's not to keep things in the city, okay?

24:23.110 --> 24:24.990
And so what are you trying to do?

24:25.350 --> 24:27.410
You're trying to have rules to keep things out

24:27.410 --> 24:29.610
of your life and to stop things from happening

24:29.610 --> 24:31.370
and prevent things from happening.

24:31.370 --> 24:33.390
Go to Job two, go to Job two.

24:33.590 --> 24:35.150
I'm just going to lots of verses

24:35.150 --> 24:36.570
before I make some application here,

24:36.590 --> 24:39.050
but I think it's super clear that husbands

24:39.510 --> 24:40.930
need to tell their wives no,

24:41.210 --> 24:44.350
and men need to tell women no in certain contexts,

24:44.970 --> 24:47.030
and I'm just making a biblical case for it.

24:49.870 --> 24:51.790
And one of those ways is telling women

24:51.790 --> 24:54.370
to sometimes just shut up about something, okay?

24:54.790 --> 24:55.990
And to stop embarrassing yourself,

24:56.090 --> 24:57.030
stop embarrassing your husband,

24:57.170 --> 24:58.270
stop embarrassing your family.

24:58.810 --> 25:01.210
Now, if it doesn't Job two, look at verse nine,

25:02.550 --> 25:03.530
then said his wife unto him,

25:03.610 --> 25:05.830
dost thou still retain thine integrity?

25:06.290 --> 25:07.330
Curse God and die!

25:08.330 --> 25:09.190
But he said unto her,

25:09.410 --> 25:11.570
thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh.

25:11.890 --> 25:14.090
What shall we receive good at the hand of God

25:14.090 --> 25:15.030
and shall we not receive evil?

25:15.350 --> 25:17.530
And all this did not Job sin with his lips.

25:17.850 --> 25:19.690
Did you notice Job corrected his wife

25:19.690 --> 25:20.550
and he did not sin?

25:22.050 --> 25:22.730
So the Bible says,

25:23.730 --> 25:25.850
he's like, hey, you sound like a stupid woman.

25:26.530 --> 25:27.890
And the Bible says he didn't sin.

25:27.890 --> 25:30.350
Now she might not have agreed with that.

25:31.190 --> 25:32.910
How dare you talk to me like that?

25:33.430 --> 25:35.410
He said, hey, you sound like one of these stupid women.

25:35.890 --> 25:37.070
You sound like a foolish woman.

25:37.410 --> 25:39.010
You're talking like a heathen,

25:39.090 --> 25:40.870
you're talking like an unbeliever.

25:41.430 --> 25:42.810
You're saying something dumb here.

25:43.490 --> 25:43.990
And you know what?

25:45.650 --> 25:48.110
Occasionally, occasionally it might be right

25:48.110 --> 25:50.770
for a husband to get up and say,

25:50.870 --> 25:53.170
hey, you sounded like a stupid feminist

25:53.170 --> 25:53.990
when you said that.

25:55.030 --> 25:57.470
You sounded like a dumb broad,

25:57.470 --> 25:59.250
you sounded like an unbeliever.

25:59.550 --> 26:01.170
You sounded like a stupid woman.

26:01.710 --> 26:02.570
Don't talk like that.

26:03.150 --> 26:04.230
Because it's embarrassing.

26:04.530 --> 26:05.770
It's embarrassing, it's wrong.

26:06.410 --> 26:07.970
You're giving bad advice here.

26:08.050 --> 26:09.070
You're giving bad counsel.

26:09.690 --> 26:11.730
You're causing people to go against the things of God.

26:12.190 --> 26:12.650
And you know what?

26:12.710 --> 26:13.030
You're wrong.

26:13.850 --> 26:14.250
And you know what?

26:14.310 --> 26:15.110
That is reality.

26:15.830 --> 26:17.370
Go to Esther chapter one.

26:17.910 --> 26:19.670
You know, we could just go,

26:19.890 --> 26:21.230
I could preach the whole sermon on this point,

26:21.350 --> 26:25.110
but I'm gonna kind of wrap up this point in Esther,

26:25.290 --> 26:25.950
but here's the thing.

26:26.510 --> 26:29.190
And Kings talking about Ahab,

26:29.270 --> 26:31.750
it says, but there was none like an Ahab

26:31.750 --> 26:33.690
which did sell himself to work wickedness

26:33.690 --> 26:34.410
in the sight of the Lord,

26:34.670 --> 26:36.670
whom Jezebel, his wife stirred up.

26:37.250 --> 26:40.350
The Bible says one of the worst guys in the Bible,

26:40.630 --> 26:41.970
one of the worst kings in the Bible,

26:42.450 --> 26:44.330
the reason why it was so bad is because his wife

26:44.330 --> 26:47.070
and because his wife stirred him up,

26:47.330 --> 26:48.970
meaning he should have told his wife, no.

26:49.950 --> 26:51.990
There should have been times in Ahab's life

26:51.990 --> 26:53.850
where he told Jezebel, no.

26:54.730 --> 26:56.490
Solomon, the Bible says about him,

26:56.590 --> 26:59.030
he had 700 wives, princes and 300 concubines

26:59.030 --> 27:01.930
and his wives turned away his heart.

27:02.470 --> 27:03.990
He should have told some of those wives, no.

27:04.070 --> 27:05.990
In fact, he should have said no to wives at that point.

27:06.170 --> 27:09.050
Like, at some point you just say no to wives, okay?

27:09.730 --> 27:11.430
Solomon had a problem saying no.

27:11.650 --> 27:12.410
Let's just be honest.

27:13.450 --> 27:15.630
And notice, he has a problem saying no

27:15.630 --> 27:18.370
to just collecting wives like Pokemon or something.

27:19.450 --> 27:20.810
He's like, I gotta catch them all.

27:22.090 --> 27:23.450
That's basically his attitude.

27:24.810 --> 27:25.670
But here's the thing.

27:26.130 --> 27:27.590
If he's in that same category,

27:28.130 --> 27:28.870
and I'm able to say no,

27:29.370 --> 27:30.770
isn't he also gonna be similar?

27:31.150 --> 27:32.790
And then when his wives come to him,

27:32.970 --> 27:33.810
he can't say no either.

27:34.670 --> 27:35.510
And I mean, it's Solomon.

27:35.690 --> 27:36.490
I mean, Solomon's the king.

27:37.210 --> 27:37.970
He has every right.

27:38.570 --> 27:40.330
No one can criticize him in a sense.

27:40.430 --> 27:41.630
Like, there's a man, like there's no man

27:41.630 --> 27:42.610
that's gonna speak down to him.

27:42.690 --> 27:43.090
He's the king.

27:43.730 --> 27:45.350
He can tell his wife, no, but he can't.

27:46.030 --> 27:47.270
And you know, it's sad that we have men

27:47.270 --> 27:48.670
in positions of authority and power

27:48.670 --> 27:49.750
and they can't tell their wives no.

27:49.750 --> 27:51.290
They're the pastor of the church

27:51.290 --> 27:52.270
and they can't tell their wife no.

27:52.850 --> 27:55.090
They're the president and they can't tell a woman no.

27:55.570 --> 27:57.390
You know, they're a high ranking CEO.

27:58.010 --> 27:58.570
They're a deacon.

27:58.870 --> 28:00.390
They're whatever and they can't tell their wife no.

28:01.210 --> 28:01.970
It's embarrassing.

28:02.830 --> 28:04.590
Look at Esther chapter one, verse 15.

28:05.210 --> 28:07.430
What shall we do under the queen Vashti according

28:07.430 --> 28:09.050
to the law because she have not performed

28:09.050 --> 28:10.290
the commandment of the king of hazardous

28:10.290 --> 28:11.150
by the Chamberlains.

28:11.490 --> 28:13.210
So we have a wife that disobeys her husband.

28:14.050 --> 28:15.630
She doesn't do what her husband says.

28:16.070 --> 28:17.570
Verse 16, and Mimukin answered,

28:18.090 --> 28:19.530
before the king and the prince is Vashti,

28:19.530 --> 28:21.690
the queen has not done wrong to the king only,

28:22.190 --> 28:25.170
but also to all the princes and to all the people

28:25.170 --> 28:28.110
that are in all the provinces of the king of hazardous.

28:28.970 --> 28:31.910
For this deed of the queen shall come abroad

28:31.910 --> 28:37.270
unto all women so that they shall despise

28:37.270 --> 28:40.150
their husbands in their eyes when it shall be reported.

28:40.690 --> 28:43.050
The king of hazardous commanded Vashti the queen

28:43.050 --> 28:46.630
to be brought in before him, but she came not.

28:47.270 --> 28:49.390
Likewise shall the ladies of Persia and media

28:49.390 --> 28:51.230
say this day unto all the king's princes

28:51.770 --> 28:53.210
which have heard the deed of the queen.

28:53.650 --> 28:57.390
Thus shall there arise too much contempt and wrath.

28:58.090 --> 29:00.030
So again, what you can learn from this is that

29:00.030 --> 29:01.790
the men in the Middle East never have a woman problem.

29:02.730 --> 29:04.430
Just kidding, it's a joke, all right?

29:05.130 --> 29:07.030
But what you can learn from this is that

29:07.030 --> 29:10.950
by principle, a woman in a position of recognition,

29:11.930 --> 29:14.690
of status, her actions will obviously

29:14.690 --> 29:15.870
affect a lot of other people.

29:15.870 --> 29:18.970
Why is it important for the aged women to be in behavior?

29:19.390 --> 29:20.990
Because in many cases the younger women

29:20.990 --> 29:22.310
will follow in like suit.

29:22.790 --> 29:24.950
And so this is an example of how the queen,

29:25.130 --> 29:27.350
if the queen can disrespect her husband,

29:27.830 --> 29:29.390
if the queen can go against her husband,

29:29.470 --> 29:31.450
if the queen can say, I can do whatever I want,

29:31.750 --> 29:33.610
well then how much more every other lady

29:33.610 --> 29:36.430
is gonna follow like suit and do the same to their husbands.

29:36.790 --> 29:38.270
And notice it's kind of like saying,

29:38.510 --> 29:40.890
whatever she does, everybody's gonna do.

29:41.550 --> 29:43.370
But even more importantly, notice this,

29:43.370 --> 29:47.630
it's whatever King Ahasuerus does, everyone will do.

29:48.670 --> 29:49.890
Pay attention to the story.

29:50.430 --> 29:53.350
It is not whatever Vashti does that everyone will do.

29:53.730 --> 29:57.690
It's how King Ahasuerus reacts that everyone will do.

29:58.210 --> 30:00.230
And they said, hey, what are we gonna do to her?

30:00.690 --> 30:03.010
Because if you just let her do whatever she wants

30:03.010 --> 30:05.390
and walk all over you and you're pushed over,

30:05.910 --> 30:08.770
then every single guy will be pushed over by his wife.

30:09.530 --> 30:11.130
Too much wrath, too much contempt.

30:11.670 --> 30:14.110
And he's like, hey, if you put her in her place,

30:14.490 --> 30:17.050
well then we'll keep society together again.

30:17.470 --> 30:20.350
And so we need men that will not allow their wives

30:20.350 --> 30:23.030
to push them over, but will say no.

30:23.730 --> 30:26.550
Again, I'm not recommending his solution here.

30:26.590 --> 30:27.310
I'm not recommending,

30:27.490 --> 30:29.210
because he puts his wife away and marries another, all right?

30:29.450 --> 30:30.250
I'm not recommending that.

30:30.310 --> 30:31.590
I'm not saying that's the right thing.

30:31.690 --> 30:33.370
And you have to understand the spiritual picture here

30:33.370 --> 30:35.090
of God's replacing Israel

30:35.090 --> 30:37.750
with New Testament Christianity and Christians, okay?

30:38.150 --> 30:39.890
That's why he allows for this story.

30:39.890 --> 30:42.710
But the principle is still a biblical principle

30:42.710 --> 30:45.190
that, hey, whatever the man does,

30:45.770 --> 30:48.250
by example, a leader, in many cases,

30:48.250 --> 30:49.550
other people fall like suit.

30:50.290 --> 30:51.810
So it's very important when a wife

30:51.810 --> 30:53.930
does something against her husband that,

30:53.990 --> 30:56.350
hey, he puts her in his place, he corrects her.

30:56.610 --> 30:58.050
You know, the Bible says for whom the Lord loveth,

30:58.370 --> 31:01.110
he corrected, even as a father, the son whom he delights.

31:01.250 --> 31:02.870
You know, God corrects us because he loves us.

31:03.190 --> 31:04.250
And a husband should correct his wife

31:04.250 --> 31:05.710
because he loves her, okay?

31:06.910 --> 31:08.870
Now, let's recap some of the things

31:08.870 --> 31:10.110
that we uncovered.

31:10.430 --> 31:12.850
Eve was wrong, he knew it, but he did it anyways.

31:13.250 --> 31:13.970
That's being a pushover.

31:14.670 --> 31:16.930
Adam was not deceived, but he surrendered.

31:18.390 --> 31:20.090
You know, love will listen,

31:20.350 --> 31:23.530
but sometimes the headship or the leader will refuse.

31:24.430 --> 31:27.570
Job did not curse God as his wife prescribed.

31:27.950 --> 31:28.730
He told her no.

31:29.570 --> 31:30.050
And you know what?

31:30.250 --> 31:32.670
Job was better than Adam in that instance

31:33.110 --> 31:34.810
in the sense that he has said,

31:34.850 --> 31:36.610
hey, you're talking like a foolish woman

31:36.610 --> 31:37.790
and he corrected his wife,

31:37.790 --> 31:40.470
just like Adam just said, hey, this is not right.

31:40.730 --> 31:42.450
Do not eat of the tree and I'm not gonna eat with you.

31:44.070 --> 31:46.670
Ahab is an example of someone who allowed his wife

31:46.670 --> 31:48.670
to stir him up and push him over

31:48.670 --> 31:51.330
and cause him to do all kinds of evil,

31:51.570 --> 31:53.270
Solomon as well, turning his heart away

31:53.270 --> 31:54.170
from the things of God.

31:54.970 --> 31:57.750
You know, ruling is having rules for your house

31:57.750 --> 32:00.190
and at the end of the day, you know, husbands

32:00.610 --> 32:02.910
need to be the ones who are deciding

32:02.910 --> 32:04.170
what church you're gonna go to.

32:06.630 --> 32:08.870
I do not believe, women should not be dragging

32:08.870 --> 32:09.830
their husbands to church.

32:10.690 --> 32:12.630
And of course, if we allowed women to pick

32:12.630 --> 32:14.390
what churches and what pastors we would have,

32:14.810 --> 32:15.910
well, it's gonna be doom.

32:17.110 --> 32:18.410
And you know, you go to the non-denom

32:18.410 --> 32:20.470
and it's like, oh, there's so many women at this church.

32:20.930 --> 32:22.150
Yeah, because it's the non-denom.

32:22.650 --> 32:24.430
Okay, it's not that men hate church.

32:24.790 --> 32:27.090
There's this idea that women are more spiritual than men.

32:27.590 --> 32:29.190
And again, historically it is accurate

32:29.190 --> 32:30.690
that there's been often in many cases

32:30.690 --> 32:32.210
more women in church than men.

32:32.210 --> 32:34.050
It's, I mean, even in American history.

32:34.450 --> 32:36.510
But I would argue that it's because the men

32:36.510 --> 32:39.450
are allowing their wives to drag them to bad churches.

32:39.950 --> 32:41.870
Because in cases where you have a good church,

32:42.210 --> 32:43.610
you almost see the exact opposite

32:43.610 --> 32:46.150
where you have more men than women in a ratio,

32:46.550 --> 32:49.130
whereas you have these weak, watered-down, lame churches,

32:49.630 --> 32:51.770
the woman-to-man ratio is off the charts.

32:52.470 --> 32:55.110
And so we need men to be the ones

32:55.110 --> 32:56.670
that are deciding what church to go to.

32:57.130 --> 32:59.030
Women should go to the church of their husband's choice.

32:59.610 --> 33:01.590
The only exception I'd put in that is,

33:01.590 --> 33:02.950
hey, if your husband's not saved

33:02.950 --> 33:04.830
or trying to take you to church that has the wrong gospel,

33:05.210 --> 33:06.450
I believe a wife has the right

33:06.450 --> 33:07.970
to still go to the right church, okay?

33:08.350 --> 33:10.470
But if he's taking you to a church

33:10.470 --> 33:12.590
that's got right in the gospel and serving God,

33:12.890 --> 33:14.070
you go to the church with your husband,

33:14.430 --> 33:16.050
you're not supposed to be the spiritual leader.

33:16.670 --> 33:21.370
Another thing, if your wife is soft on Lindsey Clancy,

33:21.730 --> 33:22.750
you need to correct that.

33:24.570 --> 33:27.010
Do not allow that to go unchecked.

33:27.310 --> 33:29.750
You need to have serious conversations with your wife.

33:29.850 --> 33:30.330
That's right.

33:30.330 --> 33:33.330
And you need to have constant conversations with your wife

33:33.330 --> 33:35.550
to reassure her why that is wrong,

33:36.010 --> 33:37.170
why that is not normal,

33:37.470 --> 33:38.550
why that is not natural,

33:38.910 --> 33:41.350
to encourage her to be protective of those kids.

33:41.730 --> 33:43.030
If she needs help from you,

33:43.310 --> 33:44.490
figure out a way to help her,

33:44.730 --> 33:45.670
but do not allow,

33:46.090 --> 33:47.870
if she feels sympathetic or empathetic

33:47.870 --> 33:50.990
towards this freak, disgusting, vile reprobate,

33:51.130 --> 33:53.710
you do not allow that to go unchecked.

33:53.770 --> 33:54.750
You need to deal with that issue.

33:55.550 --> 33:56.770
And you tell her it's no,

33:56.950 --> 33:58.770
it is not right to be empathetic towards this person.

33:59.170 --> 34:01.590
No, it is not right to feel like it's,

34:01.590 --> 34:02.770
it's okay for her to get off.

34:03.210 --> 34:04.910
You need to believe she needs the death penalty

34:05.430 --> 34:06.730
and you need to love your children.

34:07.050 --> 34:09.290
And you need to realize that what she did is wicked as hell,

34:10.470 --> 34:11.310
not excusing it.

34:11.590 --> 34:14.590
If you are dating a woman that is soft on this issue,

34:14.670 --> 34:16.230
you probably need to just immediately

34:16.230 --> 34:19.230
break the relationship and tell her no.

34:20.590 --> 34:22.110
I mean, it's the mother or children.

34:22.390 --> 34:23.990
I'll tell you, one of the number one requirements

34:23.990 --> 34:26.510
for me when dating was how my wife felt about children

34:27.030 --> 34:28.310
and how good of a mother she would be.

34:28.950 --> 34:31.410
And you know, that was one of the main things I saw in her

34:31.410 --> 34:33.910
and I knew about her and she's a great mother

34:33.910 --> 34:34.750
and she loves children.

34:34.830 --> 34:36.230
That's one of the reasons why I love her so much

34:36.730 --> 34:38.070
is I love how much she loves children.

34:38.290 --> 34:40.510
A woman that thinks it's even kind of rational

34:40.510 --> 34:43.310
to murder her own children is someone that has problems,

34:43.490 --> 34:44.150
serious problems.

34:44.650 --> 34:46.610
I mean, if you could get away from her and pray for her

34:46.610 --> 34:48.110
and she changes her mind completely, okay,

34:48.410 --> 34:51.070
but do not marry a woman that is confused on this issue.

34:51.230 --> 34:53.690
If you're already married, you're stuck.

34:53.830 --> 34:54.770
So you gotta fix the problem.

34:54.770 --> 34:57.470
But if you're not married, and I've heard,

34:57.610 --> 34:59.130
people have literally canceled weddings.

34:59.950 --> 35:02.310
And you know what, I can't blame them.

35:03.390 --> 35:06.550
If I had my wife that I'm about to marry

35:07.010 --> 35:08.570
is saying that it kind of makes sense

35:08.570 --> 35:10.250
or we need to defend Lindsey Clancy or whatever,

35:10.430 --> 35:12.010
any of this nonsense, I would totally

35:12.010 --> 35:13.710
break off the relationship immediately.

35:15.110 --> 35:17.430
That is not acceptable, that is not normal.

35:18.110 --> 35:20.670
That is a demonic spirit and you need to say no to that.

35:22.170 --> 35:24.690
It's a feminist issue that we have in our country.

35:29.370 --> 35:30.810
Hey, you know what, you need to correct your wife

35:30.810 --> 35:32.190
when she's out of bounds on issues.

35:32.750 --> 35:35.770
When it comes to obviously the Lindsey Clancy issue,

35:36.350 --> 35:39.110
you know, we as men and as a society need to tell her no

35:39.110 --> 35:40.590
and say that what she did was wrong.

35:41.050 --> 35:42.090
Insanity plea, no.

35:42.630 --> 35:42.810
No.

35:43.410 --> 35:44.570
Death penalty, yes.

35:46.890 --> 35:48.650
No mercy, no grace.

35:49.150 --> 35:50.090
You killed your kids, bye.

35:50.590 --> 35:51.630
We just need to tell her no.

35:52.190 --> 35:54.710
And we need to tell all the women that are out there,

35:55.110 --> 35:57.350
you know, screaming and yelling to go home

35:57.350 --> 35:58.850
and you're not allowed to even be here, get away.

36:00.090 --> 36:01.950
And all the women that are wanting to commit abortion,

36:02.110 --> 36:02.810
we need to tell them no.

36:03.650 --> 36:05.270
And all the women that are trying to vote,

36:05.550 --> 36:06.590
I'm saying no, all right.

36:06.890 --> 36:08.710
You know what, hey, I'll just keep going.

36:09.410 --> 36:11.530
I'll go all the way back to the 1800s.

36:12.090 --> 36:12.970
They're like, we're not going back.

36:13.230 --> 36:15.270
Well, I'll try, okay.

36:15.850 --> 36:17.010
So that's where I would take you.

36:17.890 --> 36:19.390
It's like, oh, I want third wave feminism.

36:19.390 --> 36:20.670
No, I want zero wave, okay?

36:21.310 --> 36:21.970
Zero of it.

36:23.570 --> 36:25.750
And it's like, oh, well, you're just so mean and impressive.

36:25.910 --> 36:27.330
No, no, you don't understand.

36:27.710 --> 36:28.750
If we go back to first wave,

36:28.930 --> 36:30.030
then we'll go to second, third, fourth

36:30.030 --> 36:30.770
and we'll be back where we were.

36:31.570 --> 36:33.150
And we'll just keep going back to where we were.

36:33.410 --> 36:34.350
There's no such thing as like,

36:34.370 --> 36:35.970
let's just stay on second wave or something.

36:36.830 --> 36:37.630
And at the end of the day,

36:37.690 --> 36:38.950
that's why we're in the mess that we're in.

36:39.170 --> 36:41.070
In fact, the only way to even get communism

36:41.070 --> 36:43.130
is to have all these ways of feminism

36:43.130 --> 36:44.470
and to allow women to vote

36:44.470 --> 36:45.970
and allow to tear down the society

36:45.970 --> 36:48.330
and allow marriage to become the train wreck

36:48.330 --> 36:50.490
that it is and to have rampant fornication

36:50.490 --> 36:51.590
and adultery in our society

36:51.590 --> 36:52.830
and to have women that are willing

36:52.830 --> 36:54.210
to literally murder their own children

36:54.210 --> 36:56.130
and having women defend this kind of nonsense.

36:56.430 --> 36:59.290
That's what can lead to an actual communist revolution.

36:59.770 --> 37:01.070
If you didn't have those things,

37:01.130 --> 37:03.730
we'd be so far away from it that it's not possible.

37:04.630 --> 37:05.770
You know, that's the scary thing.

37:06.070 --> 37:07.270
I mean, look at Mexico as an example.

37:07.410 --> 37:09.150
I mean, they're headed down a dark path, folks.

37:10.270 --> 37:12.830
And it's real, there's nothing stopping America

37:12.830 --> 37:14.890
or another country like ours becoming communists.

37:15.250 --> 37:16.730
You know, I know you think

37:16.730 --> 37:17.890
that you're not gonna be communists,

37:17.890 --> 37:19.850
but there's nothing in the Bible.

37:20.030 --> 37:21.470
There's nothing in in times of Bible prophecy.

37:21.590 --> 37:23.490
There's nothing saying that we won't become communists.

37:23.830 --> 37:25.250
Now, God willing, it won't.

37:25.470 --> 37:26.610
I don't believe we have to.

37:26.950 --> 37:28.950
And I sure as heck, we'll fight against it.

37:29.090 --> 37:31.170
But I'm just telling you, you know what?

37:31.350 --> 37:33.210
The more we allow women to tell us what to do,

37:33.470 --> 37:35.010
the faster you get into communism.

37:35.330 --> 37:35.730
That's right.

37:37.310 --> 37:39.810
And you know, let me explain something to you.

37:40.290 --> 37:42.810
Once communism's enrolled and it's rolled out

37:42.810 --> 37:45.130
and it's in full force, women aren't in charge.

37:45.350 --> 37:45.530
Nope.

37:46.610 --> 37:49.570
There's no women leading the communist train, okay?

37:50.050 --> 37:51.850
They were dragging you there

37:51.850 --> 37:55.530
and they're gonna drop you off and everybody's doomed, okay?

37:55.890 --> 37:56.970
That's why you tell her, no.

37:57.530 --> 37:58.670
She doesn't want communism.

37:58.870 --> 38:01.110
She doesn't realize it, but she doesn't want it, okay?

38:01.790 --> 38:04.070
It's like, she doesn't want Islam.

38:04.570 --> 38:06.550
Like, why are women okay with Islam

38:06.550 --> 38:07.310
coming into our country?

38:07.810 --> 38:08.970
And do you really think you want Islam?

38:09.490 --> 38:11.170
Do you really want Sharia law?

38:11.690 --> 38:13.950
Do you really think you want a Muslim man

38:13.950 --> 38:14.990
to take care of you?

38:15.730 --> 38:17.310
It's insanity, folks, okay?

38:18.010 --> 38:19.250
Our world's lost, it's mine.

38:20.050 --> 38:22.050
Sometimes women need to be protected from themselves, okay?

38:22.590 --> 38:23.910
And protected from their bad ideas

38:23.910 --> 38:25.690
and from their empathy for the devil,

38:26.030 --> 38:27.130
their empathy for the serpent.

38:27.510 --> 38:28.450
It's like, don't talk to the serpent.

38:28.690 --> 38:29.910
The serpent's not gonna help you.

38:29.990 --> 38:31.610
The serpent doesn't want what's best for you, okay?

38:32.110 --> 38:35.050
Now, I'm gonna read a couple posts as well

38:35.510 --> 38:37.510
that kind of illustrate and undermine

38:37.510 --> 38:38.950
some of the points that I'm,

38:39.070 --> 38:41.170
or not undermine, but really illustrate, I guess,

38:41.170 --> 38:44.150
the points that I'm trying to articulate here,

38:44.230 --> 38:47.350
but there was a post by a guy named Matt Wallace.

38:47.510 --> 38:49.410
Now, I'll be honest with you, I'm not a fan of Matt Wallace.

38:49.490 --> 38:50.350
I've brought him up many times.

38:50.430 --> 38:51.470
I've said that I don't really like him

38:51.470 --> 38:53.890
and nothing's changed about that, okay?

38:54.410 --> 38:56.310
But at the end of the day, it's not that a Catholic

38:56.310 --> 38:58.770
can't every once in a while say the right thing, okay?

38:59.170 --> 39:00.790
Now, this is something that Matt Wallace said

39:00.790 --> 39:02.530
in some post online.

39:03.070 --> 39:03.710
Just gonna read it.

39:03.730 --> 39:05.730
A lot of people aren't gonna wanna hear this,

39:06.210 --> 39:09.170
but much of the, quote, depression that parents

39:09.170 --> 39:12.150
and not just moms suffer after childbirth

39:12.150 --> 39:13.910
is due not so much to hormones,

39:14.230 --> 39:16.330
but to the fact that children, especially babies,

39:16.490 --> 39:18.510
are demanding and difficult and require us

39:18.510 --> 39:20.790
to subordinate our own needs and desires for their sake.

39:21.090 --> 39:22.290
The more selfish you are,

39:22.530 --> 39:24.590
the more of an adjustment it's going to be.

39:25.130 --> 39:27.870
Now, again, obviously we could quibble

39:27.870 --> 39:29.950
over the fact of what is depression,

39:30.390 --> 39:33.210
how much is much in some of these terms or whatever,

39:33.350 --> 39:34.230
but in general, I'm like,

39:34.290 --> 39:35.510
I can't really argue with this statement

39:35.510 --> 39:37.890
and I think that our selfish culture is very selfish.

39:38.490 --> 39:41.270
We have a very me-centered society,

39:41.650 --> 39:42.890
people are lovers of their own selves.

39:43.150 --> 39:43.970
I mean, that's what the Bible says.

39:44.130 --> 39:45.590
I mean, the Bible just says like any and times

39:45.590 --> 39:47.910
it's gonna be a rampant expansion

39:47.910 --> 39:49.670
of people being lovers of their own selves

39:49.670 --> 39:51.110
without natural affection,

39:51.550 --> 39:53.750
which again, if you're not a lover yourself

39:54.310 --> 39:55.750
and you're full of natural affection,

39:56.030 --> 39:57.230
you're really not gonna be complaining

39:57.230 --> 39:58.150
about your children very much.

39:58.610 --> 40:00.270
And you know, for people that even ever struggle

40:00.270 --> 40:01.810
about child or lost children,

40:02.170 --> 40:04.370
like they just have so much more appreciation

40:04.370 --> 40:07.650
for their children and just the fact of having a child

40:07.650 --> 40:09.430
that it's just kind of unfathomable

40:09.430 --> 40:11.710
to have people complaining about the child that they just got.

40:12.190 --> 40:13.530
I mean, can you imagine Hannah complaining

40:13.530 --> 40:15.550
about children after she's been barren for so long?

40:15.730 --> 40:18.170
You know, it's just kind of nonsense, it's silly,

40:18.470 --> 40:22.050
but obviously in a self-centered egotistical society

40:22.050 --> 40:25.230
where people are getting pregnant out of wedlock,

40:25.590 --> 40:27.690
having a child of them seems awful and a burden

40:27.690 --> 40:30.050
and a consequence and a punishment and all this stuff.

40:30.250 --> 40:32.330
So then they basically try to demonize children.

40:32.450 --> 40:34.090
They demonize these ideas

40:34.090 --> 40:35.890
and they act like being a mom is terrible.

40:36.290 --> 40:37.790
Just like I illustrated in my sermon this morning,

40:37.910 --> 40:40.530
I'll repeat again, a mom coming out of a furniture store

40:40.530 --> 40:43.510
so that she was gonna sooner drive her family off of a cliff

40:43.510 --> 40:45.170
than take them to a ferris wheel.

40:46.550 --> 40:47.350
Like what?

40:48.310 --> 40:50.270
And again, this isn't even hyperbole in the sense

40:50.270 --> 40:52.370
that there are women who have done this nonsense.

40:53.170 --> 40:55.290
There people have done this kind of horrific,

40:55.470 --> 40:58.910
horrible stuff, which is not a normal thought.

41:00.030 --> 41:01.510
We should act, we should stop pretending

41:01.510 --> 41:02.170
like that's normal.

41:03.310 --> 41:05.810
It's normal for women to be emotional.

41:06.250 --> 41:08.210
It's normal for women to cry for no reason.

41:08.750 --> 41:13.830
It's normal for women to be upset over some minor thing

41:13.830 --> 41:15.790
that really doesn't matter at the end of the day.

41:15.950 --> 41:17.750
It's not normal for women to think

41:17.750 --> 41:18.910
about murdering their children.

41:20.130 --> 41:21.890
And I will never pretend like that is normal.

41:22.590 --> 41:24.310
It is possible for women to feel sad.

41:24.730 --> 41:27.490
It's normal for men and women to feel depressed.

41:28.270 --> 41:30.670
And of course, statistically speaking,

41:31.190 --> 41:33.790
most women, after giving birth for a short duration,

41:34.150 --> 41:35.770
experience what's called baby blues.

41:36.470 --> 41:38.790
This is different, though, than depression itself.

41:38.990 --> 41:41.310
This is considered a different diagnosis.

41:41.930 --> 41:44.450
And again, the baby blues would just be simply the fact

41:44.450 --> 41:47.530
that when you feel sad, because of normal reasons

41:47.530 --> 41:50.650
of being sad, you're more sad than you would normally be.

41:52.350 --> 41:55.410
Whatever, you spilled a little bit of coffee or something

41:56.140 --> 41:57.790
and it's like normally you would just be like,

41:57.790 --> 42:00.330
oh, bummer, but it's like literally

42:00.330 --> 42:02.170
like you lost a child or something.

42:02.430 --> 42:03.490
You're so sad or whatever.

42:03.730 --> 42:07.030
And it's like, okay, that was an extreme emotional reaction.

42:07.270 --> 42:10.530
Like, you broke down and cried over some spilled milk

42:10.530 --> 42:13.250
and normally it's just like no big deal, clean it up

42:13.250 --> 42:16.530
because, hey, your body's trying to regulate.

42:17.030 --> 42:19.430
You have more hormones than you would normally have.

42:19.790 --> 42:20.470
We get that.

42:20.930 --> 42:21.570
That's normal.

42:21.930 --> 42:22.570
But you know what?

42:22.810 --> 42:24.230
You're not gonna spill a little bit of coffee or anything.

42:24.370 --> 42:25.650
Like, I should now murder my children.

42:26.910 --> 42:30.690
And then blame that on being postpartum

42:30.690 --> 42:34.070
or being, hey, having given child recently.

42:34.550 --> 42:35.750
This is not normal.

42:35.950 --> 42:37.530
This is not reality, okay?

42:37.990 --> 42:39.210
Now again, I also wanna make this clear.

42:39.710 --> 42:42.090
Matt's post didn't say postpartum.

42:43.330 --> 42:45.470
It didn't identify only women.

42:45.590 --> 42:48.510
It said parents, not just moms.

42:49.190 --> 42:50.990
He said, I think there's a lot of dudes that are selfish.

42:51.750 --> 42:54.490
And then, you know, people claim depression or whatever.

42:55.650 --> 42:58.330
Now, someone responded to this particular post.

42:58.790 --> 43:00.070
It was Cassandra McMurtry,

43:00.550 --> 43:03.270
who is the wife of Tommy McMurtry.

43:03.810 --> 43:06.590
And I just wanna illustrate some things that she said

43:06.590 --> 43:08.470
in response to this particular post

43:09.050 --> 43:11.990
because it's just, it's gross what she said

43:12.490 --> 43:14.150
and it was disrespectful to her husband.

43:14.870 --> 43:17.810
And you know, again, in this particular post of Matt,

43:17.870 --> 43:19.410
while she claims that she doesn't like it,

43:19.470 --> 43:21.350
she disagrees with it, she thinks that Matt

43:21.870 --> 43:23.070
doesn't know what he's talking about

43:23.070 --> 43:24.690
because he's never actually been a woman.

43:25.250 --> 43:25.690
Really?

43:27.410 --> 43:27.850
Okay.

43:28.590 --> 43:30.290
Did he make like a whole documentary about that?

43:30.390 --> 43:31.150
Yeah, I get it, okay.

43:33.450 --> 43:35.650
But at the end of the day, like, you know,

43:36.470 --> 43:38.710
I think that men can still speak on these issues

43:38.710 --> 43:41.470
regardless of how many births they've had, okay?

43:41.850 --> 43:43.630
And we get it, we're at a net zero, all right?

43:44.170 --> 43:45.950
But at the end of the day, like,

43:46.470 --> 43:48.850
this was one of the comments that she made

43:48.850 --> 43:50.210
about Matt Wallace's post.

43:50.590 --> 43:52.770
Maybe men should just keep silent

43:52.770 --> 43:54.210
about things they know nothing about,

43:54.210 --> 43:55.290
maybe just maybe.

43:56.090 --> 43:58.410
Now, I want to reiterate what he said.

43:58.550 --> 44:01.010
He said that much of the depression that parents

44:01.590 --> 44:05.170
and not just moms suffer after childbirth, okay?

44:05.570 --> 44:07.190
Here's the thing, Matt Wallace has six children.

44:08.030 --> 44:10.090
How can Matt Wallace not speak about

44:10.090 --> 44:12.310
what it's like to be a parent having children?

44:12.630 --> 44:14.710
And not only that, Matt Wallace has two sets of twins,

44:15.250 --> 44:16.350
which I'll just be honest with you,

44:16.350 --> 44:18.650
I've never had twins, but from everybody's experience,

44:18.870 --> 44:21.770
having twins is way harder than just having one

44:21.770 --> 44:24.350
as far as emotionally, the pregnancy.

44:25.270 --> 44:27.770
I mean, just having one baby screaming is enough.

44:27.950 --> 44:29.370
I can't imagine it being duplicated.

44:29.710 --> 44:31.070
I can't imagine just like, what do you do?

44:31.370 --> 44:34.530
Like, I don't know, it seems a little bit intimidating.

44:35.530 --> 44:39.130
So I think I could see a parent having six children,

44:39.330 --> 44:42.270
two sets of twins that maybe they know what it's like

44:42.270 --> 44:42.910
to have children.

44:43.370 --> 44:45.810
Maybe they know what it's like to have hard nights

44:45.810 --> 44:47.010
and sleepless nights.

44:47.310 --> 44:49.110
I mean, if you are a parent for the first time,

44:49.210 --> 44:51.030
you're gonna have nights where you don't sleep very much.

44:51.530 --> 44:53.630
You're gonna have that sleep deprivation cycle potentially.

44:54.030 --> 44:56.130
Even men, yes, we go through it too.

44:56.530 --> 44:59.050
And yeah, I don't have the same hormones as my wife.

44:59.270 --> 44:59.950
That'll never happen.

45:00.190 --> 45:00.650
But you know what?

45:00.970 --> 45:03.290
I can still go through low points

45:03.290 --> 45:05.590
or have the sleep deprivation or have these issues.

45:05.890 --> 45:06.350
But you know what?

45:06.570 --> 45:08.970
At no point are either of us thinking like,

45:09.270 --> 45:10.730
hey, let's murder the children.

45:11.870 --> 45:13.550
Hey, let's do this kind of nonsense.

45:13.950 --> 45:14.730
That's silly.

45:15.230 --> 45:17.310
That's not even what a normal person would do.

45:17.830 --> 45:20.250
I would argue that when you're having a hormone spike,

45:20.250 --> 45:21.950
it's just taking who you are

45:21.950 --> 45:23.830
and making it a little bit exaggerated.

45:24.350 --> 45:26.390
So if you're happy, you're just really happy.

45:26.570 --> 45:27.830
If you're sad, you're really sad.

45:28.150 --> 45:29.410
If you're angry, you're really angry.

45:29.850 --> 45:32.690
If you're selfish, you're even more selfish, right?

45:33.170 --> 45:36.750
Just whatever you're like on hormones going crazy,

45:36.970 --> 45:39.570
you're typically just a little bit more of that.

45:40.110 --> 45:40.590
But you know what?

45:40.890 --> 45:42.930
If you're a non-murderer,

45:43.190 --> 45:45.410
you're gonna continue having non-murder thoughts.

45:46.210 --> 45:47.890
If you are a murderous person,

45:47.890 --> 45:50.890
well, then maybe they're gonna be even more exaggerated.

45:51.330 --> 45:52.050
But let me tell you something.

45:52.110 --> 45:53.710
It's coming from an evil heart of murder.

45:54.530 --> 45:57.630
It's not coming out of nowhere, okay?

45:57.950 --> 46:00.330
It's evil people doing evil things.

46:00.970 --> 46:02.630
And again, obviously taking drugs

46:02.630 --> 46:03.770
can have the same effect.

46:04.210 --> 46:06.630
Drugs don't really make you a completely different person

46:07.270 --> 46:09.830
in general, but what it will do

46:09.830 --> 46:11.670
is it will take away your inhibitions.

46:12.010 --> 46:13.490
It will take some of your good judgment away.

46:13.750 --> 46:16.270
It'll cause you to act without morals

46:16.270 --> 46:17.530
and without a moral framework.

46:18.170 --> 46:19.910
And in some cases, it can cause you to do things

46:19.910 --> 46:20.710
that you're unaware of.

46:20.790 --> 46:23.590
Maybe you're just not really in your capacity.

46:23.910 --> 46:25.310
But it's not gonna just make you

46:25.310 --> 46:26.670
a completely different person.

46:26.850 --> 46:27.770
It's not gonna make me a Muslim.

46:29.070 --> 46:29.350
Taking drugs.

46:29.690 --> 46:31.170
And look, I'll be honest with you.

46:31.230 --> 46:32.630
I know people that have,

46:32.970 --> 46:34.710
they're smoking marijuana regularly.

46:35.190 --> 46:35.890
I've never done it,

46:35.950 --> 46:37.070
but they were smoking marijuana regularly

46:37.550 --> 46:38.330
and they were saying,

46:38.470 --> 46:40.010
oh, that caused me to be a pedophile

46:40.010 --> 46:41.450
and literally molest somebody.

46:42.630 --> 46:44.210
And I'm like, bro, that's not how it works.

46:44.810 --> 46:46.810
Okay, you might have been like,

46:46.890 --> 46:48.970
hey, let's go to all sorts and get a burrito at midnight.

46:50.650 --> 46:53.130
You might have like slept in

46:53.130 --> 46:55.250
or you might have slept in weird clothes

46:55.250 --> 46:56.330
or slept in a weird place

46:56.330 --> 46:57.930
or you might have done something stupid.

46:58.110 --> 46:59.630
You might have accidentally injured yourself

46:59.630 --> 47:00.930
with heavy machinery.

47:01.290 --> 47:02.650
You might have done something weird.

47:02.870 --> 47:03.930
But you know what, you're not gonna do,

47:04.430 --> 47:05.570
you're not gonna become a pedophile.

47:06.510 --> 47:08.990
It's not like, oops, I took drugs, now I'm a pedophile.

47:09.510 --> 47:12.090
Oops, it's like this Alex Jones thing

47:12.090 --> 47:14.250
where he says that they turn frogs gay

47:14.250 --> 47:15.170
with chemicals or something.

47:16.330 --> 47:17.430
And I've heard people say,

47:17.470 --> 47:19.030
this is the explanation for dudes too.

47:19.570 --> 47:21.570
Look, you can pump me with every chemical you want

47:21.570 --> 47:22.710
and I'll never be a faggot, okay?

47:23.250 --> 47:24.210
Let me just make that clear.

47:24.790 --> 47:27.650
All right, because it's not how it works.

47:28.870 --> 47:33.430
And look, I get that people on these mind altering drugs

47:34.490 --> 47:36.650
can sleepwalk and do harmful things

47:36.650 --> 47:37.810
that they're kind of unaware of.

47:38.030 --> 47:38.450
But you know what,

47:38.530 --> 47:40.470
they're not doing premeditated murder.

47:42.090 --> 47:42.930
It's not happening.

47:43.690 --> 47:45.530
Now, maybe if they were already premeditating on it,

47:45.750 --> 47:48.430
it could encourage them and lower the inhibitions to do it.

47:48.750 --> 47:50.070
But let me tell you something that they,

47:50.450 --> 47:52.290
somewhere in that heart, they were already wanting to do that.

47:53.010 --> 47:54.770
I don't believe this for one second.

47:54.950 --> 47:55.830
You can believe whatever you want.

47:56.110 --> 47:58.790
But you came in and said, fast Baptist church, right?

47:59.790 --> 48:01.190
Here's another thing that she said

48:01.550 --> 48:02.650
is that she said,

48:04.670 --> 48:06.430
to say that much of the depression

48:06.430 --> 48:08.250
of the postpartum period is due to selfishness

48:08.250 --> 48:10.110
is rejecting the entire biology and makeup of a woman.

48:10.570 --> 48:12.370
Now, again, I'm not gonna comment too much on this

48:12.370 --> 48:13.250
because frankly speaking,

48:13.490 --> 48:15.670
his post didn't even bring up postpartum, okay?

48:16.270 --> 48:19.670
But why does a woman get to get the ability

48:19.670 --> 48:20.570
to just get up and say,

48:20.610 --> 48:23.790
men shouldn't even talk about postpartum or depression

48:24.570 --> 48:26.690
or childbirth or any of these issues?

48:27.030 --> 48:29.230
Like, that's not what the Bible says.

48:30.130 --> 48:31.230
Genesis three, we already read,

48:31.370 --> 48:33.230
it said that God was gonna multiply the star on conception.

48:33.410 --> 48:34.670
That's God talking about pregnancy.

48:35.530 --> 48:37.750
Go to John 16, if you would, go to John chapter 16.

48:37.750 --> 48:39.750
Let's see what the Bible says on these things.

48:40.310 --> 48:41.830
Now, in a separate video,

48:42.210 --> 48:46.690
she also put out talking about just this Lindsey Clancy issue

48:46.690 --> 48:49.530
and just this kind of somewhat related topic

48:50.230 --> 48:52.610
is that she said, hey, I've always been

48:52.610 --> 48:53.950
for traditional gender roles.

48:54.530 --> 48:56.350
I'm all for the husband being the provider and protector.

48:56.910 --> 48:57.950
My husband's been the sole provider

48:57.950 --> 48:58.750
and he's been our protector.

48:58.890 --> 48:59.990
She also said that she's not a feminist.

49:01.350 --> 49:02.330
Okay, that's fine.

49:03.010 --> 49:04.310
Like, all those things are good,

49:04.370 --> 49:05.310
but you know what, you can't have your cake

49:05.310 --> 49:05.690
and eat it too.

49:05.750 --> 49:06.890
You can't say, hey, I want my husband

49:06.890 --> 49:07.730
to be the sole provider.

49:07.890 --> 49:09.250
Take care of me, protect me and all these things.

49:09.510 --> 49:11.570
But then simultaneously, and say you're not a feminist.

49:11.990 --> 49:12.790
Well, then simultaneously,

49:13.310 --> 49:14.990
championing for women to have equal rights,

49:15.270 --> 49:17.290
for women to basically be able to speak

49:17.290 --> 49:18.350
on any issue that they want,

49:18.490 --> 49:19.390
tell men to shut up.

49:19.630 --> 49:21.130
Like, that's incompatible.

49:21.210 --> 49:21.690
That's contradiction.

49:23.030 --> 49:24.950
That's a woman sitting herself up in a high place

49:24.950 --> 49:27.490
in the city just making a clamorous sound.

49:29.710 --> 49:30.550
Here's another quote.

49:30.930 --> 49:32.050
So if we are to knowledging

49:32.050 --> 49:34.390
that postpartum hormones exist and they do,

49:34.850 --> 49:36.650
I have always acknowledged that.

49:37.230 --> 49:40.090
And that is why I think men need to just shut up about it

49:40.090 --> 49:42.150
because they've never been through it.

49:42.830 --> 49:44.330
They've never acknowledged it.

49:44.890 --> 49:45.210
What?

49:45.730 --> 49:48.170
So men have never acknowledged this?

49:48.370 --> 49:49.050
What are you talking about?

49:49.390 --> 49:51.790
And it's silly and stupid to even try to pretend

49:51.790 --> 49:52.890
like they don't exist.

49:53.350 --> 49:55.110
Who's pretending like they don't exist?

49:55.390 --> 49:55.550
Yeah.

49:56.650 --> 49:57.950
It doesn't mean that you're not in control

49:57.950 --> 49:59.230
of how you act when you go through these things,

49:59.290 --> 50:01.470
but men also need to realize that they do exist.

50:01.950 --> 50:04.030
Well, okay, honey, let me explain something to you.

50:04.030 --> 50:05.310
Men understand they exist.

50:05.590 --> 50:05.810
Right, right.

50:06.310 --> 50:09.650
I guarantee every man that's ever been married

50:09.650 --> 50:11.330
realized that their wife can be hormonal.

50:11.550 --> 50:14.170
I'm just gonna tell you, I have a sneaking suspicion

50:14.910 --> 50:17.590
that they've all realized that women can be hormonal,

50:18.090 --> 50:18.410
all right?

50:18.850 --> 50:20.790
And I guarantee after childbirth,

50:21.070 --> 50:23.250
they realize something's different.

50:27.550 --> 50:28.070
Okay.

50:28.830 --> 50:30.470
Whether they could spell it or not,

50:30.810 --> 50:32.350
they knew what postpartum is, honey.

50:32.910 --> 50:33.130
Okay.

50:34.190 --> 50:36.390
Silly, they've never acknowledged it.

50:36.550 --> 50:37.550
What are you talking about?

50:38.050 --> 50:38.070
Okay.

50:38.610 --> 50:41.350
Then she said, quote, my husband has never even tried

50:41.350 --> 50:44.750
to talk about women's issues because he has no idea

50:45.410 --> 50:48.010
and he knows he has no idea.

50:48.590 --> 50:50.230
Who's telling him he doesn't know about it?

50:50.350 --> 50:51.370
You know, it's like, good night.

50:52.530 --> 50:54.570
It's just, you know what this is?

50:54.730 --> 50:55.230
It's disrespectful.

50:56.390 --> 50:57.810
It's disrespectful to say,

50:57.970 --> 51:00.490
my husband's not allowed to talk about postpartum.

51:00.490 --> 51:02.390
My husband's not allowed to talk about pregnancy.

51:02.810 --> 51:04.350
My husband's not allowed to talk about hormones.

51:04.690 --> 51:06.530
My husband's not allowed to have an opinion in this area.

51:06.790 --> 51:08.070
You know, that's disrespectful to men.

51:08.470 --> 51:09.330
It's disrespectful to her husband.

51:09.430 --> 51:09.850
And you know what?

51:09.910 --> 51:11.530
Her husband should say no, you're not allowed to say that.

51:13.470 --> 51:15.630
Look at John 16, verse 21.

51:16.130 --> 51:20.110
Here's the Lord Jesus Christ talking about women.

51:20.690 --> 51:22.610
Look at John 16, verse 21.

51:24.010 --> 51:25.770
A woman when she is in travail has sorrow.

51:26.650 --> 51:29.770
How dare he, you know, talk about women's issues.

51:30.330 --> 51:31.270
Because their hours come.

51:31.670 --> 51:33.130
But as soon as she is delivered to the child,

51:33.230 --> 51:35.290
she remembers no more the anguish for joy

51:35.290 --> 51:36.410
that a man is born in the world.

51:36.810 --> 51:39.250
How dare he say what my experience is gonna be like

51:39.250 --> 51:40.050
when I give birth?

51:40.310 --> 51:41.390
He doesn't know me.

51:41.710 --> 51:43.450
He doesn't know my experience.

51:44.030 --> 51:46.130
How dare he say that I'm supposed to feel better

51:46.130 --> 51:47.010
after childbirth?

51:47.190 --> 51:48.510
Because I didn't feel better.

51:49.050 --> 51:50.910
You know, he doesn't know that I have PPD.

51:51.830 --> 51:53.750
Well, that's Jesus saying that,

51:53.790 --> 51:55.350
hey, a lot of times women feel better

51:55.870 --> 51:58.550
after they give birth because it's real.

51:59.050 --> 52:01.830
Now again, is this saying that she's not gonna experience

52:02.770 --> 52:04.850
postpartum depression or postpartum issues

52:04.850 --> 52:06.830
or baby blues or all this other stuff

52:06.830 --> 52:07.990
in the weeks after?

52:08.350 --> 52:09.330
No, but you know what?

52:09.410 --> 52:11.410
This is a guy talking about women's issues.

52:11.970 --> 52:13.930
Let's go to Leviticus chapter 12 for a moment

52:13.930 --> 52:16.670
and see if the Bible talks about women's issues or not.

52:17.210 --> 52:19.670
And if men talk about women's issues or not.

52:20.070 --> 52:21.270
You know, at first time of the chapter two,

52:21.350 --> 52:23.790
the Bible says that she should be saved in childbearing.

52:24.210 --> 52:25.950
That's men talking about, hey, you know what?

52:26.010 --> 52:27.870
You need honey, you need another pregnancy.

52:27.870 --> 52:28.530
That's what you need.

52:29.070 --> 52:31.470
You need another birth, you need another child.

52:32.070 --> 52:33.370
Well, how dare he?

52:33.470 --> 52:34.670
He doesn't know how I feel.

52:34.730 --> 52:35.950
He doesn't know what I experience.

52:36.590 --> 52:39.630
I get that we can never experience it.

52:40.550 --> 52:43.110
But you know, I don't have to experience something

52:43.710 --> 52:45.550
to have rules and laws about it.

52:45.590 --> 52:46.030
Yeah, right.

52:46.750 --> 52:49.610
You know, experience can be a good teacher.

52:50.030 --> 52:50.490
But you know what?

52:50.590 --> 52:52.090
Not experiencing things can also be a good teacher.

52:52.390 --> 52:53.610
Do you think it's fair for me to get up

52:53.610 --> 52:55.930
and say don't do drugs when I've never done drugs?

52:57.010 --> 52:58.390
Well, you don't know what it's like, Pastor Shelley.

52:58.450 --> 52:58.930
How do you know?

52:59.710 --> 53:00.670
You've never smoked marijuana.

53:00.890 --> 53:01.530
How do you know what it's like?

53:01.670 --> 53:02.070
I don't.

53:02.370 --> 53:03.130
But don't do it.

53:03.270 --> 53:03.790
Yeah, right.

53:04.210 --> 53:06.210
I've never done LSD, you know?

53:06.910 --> 53:08.110
There's a lot of things I've never done.

53:08.370 --> 53:10.050
I've never eaten Indian food, okay?

53:11.150 --> 53:13.190
Now again, people are telling me it's awesome.

53:13.530 --> 53:14.010
Go for it.

53:14.310 --> 53:14.790
You know what?

53:15.290 --> 53:16.010
I love you, brother.

53:17.050 --> 53:18.050
But you know, at the end of the day,

53:18.130 --> 53:19.470
I could choose whatever I'm gonna do

53:19.470 --> 53:20.430
and whatever I like.

53:21.030 --> 53:22.230
You know, at the end of the day,

53:22.230 --> 53:26.410
it doesn't matter what, you know,

53:26.510 --> 53:27.910
experiences you go through or not.

53:28.030 --> 53:28.530
You know what's right?

53:28.690 --> 53:28.990
The Bible.

53:30.630 --> 53:33.550
Because, you know, I could be wrong about an experience,

53:33.730 --> 53:35.270
but I can't be wrong about what the Bible's saying.

53:36.170 --> 53:37.750
I can be wrong about a personal opinion.

53:38.250 --> 53:39.950
I can't be wrong about what the Bible's saying.

53:40.310 --> 53:42.290
And look, the Bible talks about women's issues

53:42.290 --> 53:43.150
and these particular issues.

53:43.570 --> 53:44.230
And here's the thing.

53:44.590 --> 53:46.110
As a husband, you know,

53:46.270 --> 53:47.850
we're gonna experience all the same things

53:47.850 --> 53:48.810
just from our viewpoint.

53:49.430 --> 53:50.850
Shouldn't we be able to speak about it

53:50.850 --> 53:52.910
from our viewpoint and what we've seen

53:52.910 --> 53:53.690
and what we've gone through?

53:54.030 --> 53:56.250
Let alone, let me explain something to you.

53:56.650 --> 53:58.250
If you're gonna say men can't talk about these issues,

53:58.490 --> 54:00.350
so you're telling me that no male doctors

54:00.350 --> 54:02.190
can ever see a woman patient ever again

54:02.190 --> 54:02.950
on any of these issues?

54:03.690 --> 54:06.850
Are you saying that men can't pass any laws

54:06.850 --> 54:07.990
regarding abortion?

54:08.270 --> 54:09.890
Because that's what the feminist agenda is.

54:10.090 --> 54:11.850
You don't know what it's like to have a child.

54:12.050 --> 54:13.470
You don't know what it's like to give birth.

54:13.710 --> 54:15.350
Therefore, you cannot legislate

54:15.350 --> 54:16.910
whether abortion is legal or not.

54:17.170 --> 54:19.750
You can't decide what kind of medications

54:19.750 --> 54:20.450
we can be on.

54:20.450 --> 54:22.210
You can't decide what pills we can take.

54:22.410 --> 54:25.190
That is the number one feminist talking point

54:25.730 --> 54:29.490
of today's culture is to say my body, my choice

54:29.490 --> 54:31.790
and say men can't tell me and they can't legislate

54:31.790 --> 54:32.550
and they can't do whatever.

54:32.790 --> 54:34.410
I mean, that's the whole talking point.

54:35.150 --> 54:37.050
Why do you have your wife getting up

54:37.050 --> 54:38.270
and speaking like a feminist?

54:38.850 --> 54:40.230
Speaking like a foolish woman.

54:40.730 --> 54:41.750
Should tell her no.

54:42.590 --> 54:43.850
Instead of her telling you

54:43.850 --> 54:45.110
that you're not allowed to talk about it,

54:45.310 --> 54:46.890
you should say she's not allowed to talk about it.

54:47.830 --> 54:48.770
That's what should be happening.

54:48.770 --> 54:51.070
Leviticus chapter 12, look at verse number one.

54:52.370 --> 54:53.130
And the Lord's speaking to Moses,

54:53.330 --> 54:54.230
saying, speaking of the children of Israel,

54:54.350 --> 54:55.890
saying of a woman have conceived seed

54:56.390 --> 54:57.530
and born a man child,

54:58.070 --> 54:59.850
then she shall be unclean seven days.

55:00.250 --> 55:01.930
According to the days of the separation

55:01.930 --> 55:04.210
for her infirmity, she shall be unclean.

55:04.470 --> 55:05.970
And the eighth day of the flesh

55:05.970 --> 55:07.990
of his foreskin shall be circumcised.

55:08.350 --> 55:09.630
And she shall then continue

55:09.630 --> 55:12.010
in the blood of her purifying three and 30 days.

55:12.490 --> 55:14.030
She shall touch no howl thing

55:14.030 --> 55:15.130
nor come into the sanctuary

55:15.130 --> 55:16.750
until the days of her purifying be fulfilled.

55:16.750 --> 55:18.630
But if she bear a maid child,

55:19.330 --> 55:22.770
then she shall be unclean two weeks as in her separation

55:22.770 --> 55:23.730
and she shall continue

55:23.730 --> 55:25.690
in the blood of her purifying three score and six days.

55:26.390 --> 55:29.510
The priest is literally prescribing how long

55:29.510 --> 55:31.070
and what you're gonna do after your birth.

55:31.150 --> 55:34.710
This is like your postpartum care by the priest,

55:34.950 --> 55:35.410
by the man of God.

55:35.570 --> 55:37.390
Oh, women, men shouldn't talk about this.

55:37.690 --> 55:38.950
Men have no opinion.

55:39.370 --> 55:40.810
They're not allowed to talk about these issues.

55:41.070 --> 55:43.150
I mean, the Bible has the priest literally prescribing

55:43.150 --> 55:44.510
how long they're gonna do things,

55:44.650 --> 55:45.850
what they're purifying is gonna be like,

55:45.850 --> 55:46.390
what they're ritual.

55:46.810 --> 55:48.250
Look, is it saying to the men are getting up

55:48.250 --> 55:49.710
and say what it's like in the experience?

55:49.910 --> 55:50.690
No, of course not.

55:51.010 --> 55:53.890
But it's silly to say men cannot speak on these issues

55:54.470 --> 55:57.030
or to say, hey, men can't have an opinion on these issues.

55:57.470 --> 55:58.930
Men should be able to have an opinion on every issue.

55:59.930 --> 56:00.730
And you know what?

56:00.910 --> 56:02.510
If those posts and those videos stay up,

56:02.910 --> 56:04.250
then Tommy has already chosen

56:04.250 --> 56:05.270
who speaks for their household.

56:06.430 --> 56:08.930
And any man who continues to accept that,

56:09.090 --> 56:11.630
that he knows nothing and stays silent

56:11.630 --> 56:13.550
has surrendered the headship of his household.

56:14.510 --> 56:15.710
And you know what?

56:15.990 --> 56:17.870
It's wicked and it's being a pushover

56:17.870 --> 56:19.810
and we shouldn't have men that are pushovers.

56:20.230 --> 56:22.490
I will not allow my wife to get up

56:22.490 --> 56:25.570
and publicly humiliate me, publicly disrespect me,

56:25.930 --> 56:27.710
publicly do these things and not correct it.

56:28.630 --> 56:30.770
And look, if a pastor's wife does something

56:30.770 --> 56:32.770
that's inappropriate or makes a mistake,

56:33.150 --> 56:35.250
hey, fix it and move on, okay?

56:35.530 --> 56:38.110
But do not allow it to go like a vasty situation

56:38.110 --> 56:39.510
and then just all this contempt

56:39.510 --> 56:40.510
and all this stuff arise

56:40.510 --> 56:42.930
where all the wives and the church are gonna say,

56:42.930 --> 56:44.710
you can't talk to me about this issue.

56:44.910 --> 56:45.610
You don't know.

56:45.850 --> 56:47.190
You better not talk about it.

56:47.330 --> 56:48.010
How dare you?

56:48.210 --> 56:49.270
Men need to just shut up.

56:49.870 --> 56:51.450
You just sound like a rabid feminist.

56:51.810 --> 56:52.450
Yeah, yeah.

56:53.390 --> 56:54.610
Now, go over to 1st Corinthians 10.

56:54.690 --> 56:56.970
I'm just gonna make two points quickly beyond this,

56:57.070 --> 57:00.090
but number one, we need men to tell wives no.

57:00.270 --> 57:01.170
That's the most important issue.

57:01.490 --> 57:05.170
Number two, we need Christian universities

57:05.170 --> 57:07.350
to not sell Islamic meat.

57:08.890 --> 57:11.450
Yeah, Baylor University here in Texas

57:11.450 --> 57:15.830
is now creating a dining option on their campus

57:15.830 --> 57:20.050
for Halal meat to accommodate radical Muslims.

57:20.210 --> 57:20.330
Wow.

57:21.150 --> 57:21.330
What?

57:22.130 --> 57:23.990
It's a news article just came out.

57:24.490 --> 57:27.110
Baylor, which was started as a Baptist college,

57:27.230 --> 57:32.030
a Baptist university, and it brands itself

57:32.030 --> 57:34.990
as trying to bring Baptist in and Christians.

57:35.270 --> 57:37.110
It's gone broader, of course, over time

57:37.110 --> 57:38.550
because they always have to compromise some.

57:38.550 --> 57:40.850
Now, bring in the Muslims.

57:41.890 --> 57:43.610
Not only bring in the Muslims,

57:44.010 --> 57:45.510
we're not even gonna try to evangelize you.

57:45.690 --> 57:49.770
We'll feed you your meat that's offered in sacrifice

57:50.310 --> 57:52.770
and slaughter to Allah, which is a false God,

57:53.870 --> 57:55.670
which is contrary to the literal Bible.

57:56.090 --> 57:57.090
This is wicked.

57:57.510 --> 57:58.610
This is crazy.

57:59.490 --> 58:00.570
You know what you just say?

58:00.910 --> 58:01.170
No!

58:01.750 --> 58:02.490
Yeah, that's right.

58:02.530 --> 58:05.930
Oh, Muslims want you to accommodate their special request

58:05.930 --> 58:07.750
of meat sacrifice to their false God.

58:07.750 --> 58:09.470
That should be an easy no.

58:09.850 --> 58:12.090
In fact, it should be a hell no, if you ask me.

58:12.550 --> 58:13.670
What in the world?

58:14.650 --> 58:17.510
First Corinthians chapter 10, look at verse 20.

58:19.150 --> 58:21.130
But I say that the things of the Gentiles sacrifice,

58:21.290 --> 58:24.170
they sacrifice to devils and not to God.

58:24.430 --> 58:26.690
And I would not that you should have fellowship with devils.

58:27.210 --> 58:28.850
You cannot drink the cup of the Lord

58:28.850 --> 58:29.790
and the cup of devils.

58:30.050 --> 58:31.890
You cannot be retakers of the Lord's table

58:31.890 --> 58:33.070
and of the table of devils.

58:33.370 --> 58:35.610
Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy?

58:36.170 --> 58:37.530
Are we stronger than He?

58:38.210 --> 58:41.330
All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient.

58:41.570 --> 58:43.510
All things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.

58:43.950 --> 58:46.310
Let no man seek his own, but every man and other man's wealth.

58:46.590 --> 58:48.190
What's over a soul in the shambles that eat,

58:48.390 --> 58:50.930
asking no question for a conscience sake?

58:51.030 --> 58:52.930
For the earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof.

58:53.310 --> 58:55.310
If any of them that believe not bid you to a feast

58:55.310 --> 58:56.750
and you be disposed to go,

58:57.150 --> 58:58.310
what's over a soul before you eat,

58:58.470 --> 59:00.510
asking no question for a conscience sake?

59:00.790 --> 59:02.450
But if any man, say unto you,

59:02.450 --> 59:05.690
this is offered, and sacrifice unto idols.

59:06.170 --> 59:08.170
Eat not for his sake that showed it,

59:08.530 --> 59:09.890
and for conscience sake,

59:10.130 --> 59:11.830
for the earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof.

59:12.050 --> 59:13.330
Conscience, I say, not thine own,

59:13.630 --> 59:15.950
but of the other, for why is my liberty judged

59:15.950 --> 59:16.910
of another man's conscience?

59:17.310 --> 59:18.250
So what is he saying here?

59:18.590 --> 59:20.770
He's saying, look, if a Muslim says,

59:20.850 --> 59:23.390
hey, eat this meat with me and sacrifice to Allah,

59:23.690 --> 59:24.950
I'm gonna say, no!

59:26.030 --> 59:27.470
Why? For his conscience.

59:27.750 --> 59:29.850
To say, hey, this is a false God

59:29.850 --> 59:31.390
and I will not partake with you

59:31.390 --> 59:32.950
and eating meat to a false God.

59:33.110 --> 59:34.510
You need to realize, you need to convert

59:34.510 --> 59:35.990
and become a Christian.

59:36.470 --> 59:36.890
Yeah, amen.

59:37.810 --> 59:42.130
Now look, if a Christian eats meat, sacrifice unto Allah,

59:42.310 --> 59:44.270
and they don't know about it, it can't harm them.

59:44.970 --> 59:45.930
It has no, there's nothing,

59:46.190 --> 59:48.650
nothing about the meat changes biologically.

59:48.810 --> 59:51.530
Okay, it's not transubstantiation up here, okay?

59:51.890 --> 59:54.090
It's not turning into Allah's, you know,

59:54.350 --> 59:55.710
blood or something like that.

59:55.750 --> 59:57.170
It's not turning into Allah's body

59:57.170 --> 59:58.930
because he's not even real, number one.

59:58.930 --> 01:00:02.750
Number two, even if he was real, it's not changing,

01:00:03.150 --> 01:00:05.010
but it's not real, it's not changing,

01:00:05.090 --> 01:00:07.490
it's still the exact same meat, the same chemistry,

01:00:07.670 --> 01:00:09.090
the same biology, everything.

01:00:09.670 --> 01:00:11.930
But here's the thing, there's a spiritual connotation to it.

01:00:12.790 --> 01:00:14.670
And God will judge the person

01:00:14.670 --> 01:00:16.770
who is eating meat, sacrifice unto idols,

01:00:17.310 --> 01:00:18.910
knowingly doing so, okay?

01:00:19.470 --> 01:00:22.390
You can unknowingly eat it all day long, no problem,

01:00:22.710 --> 01:00:23.450
what the Bible says.

01:00:23.830 --> 01:00:26.110
So it's like, if I go over to Jafar's house

01:00:26.110 --> 01:00:29.050
or whatever and he giving me tacos,

01:00:29.490 --> 01:00:30.210
I'm just gonna eat them.

01:00:30.890 --> 01:00:32.690
It's literally, the Bible think, don't even ask.

01:00:33.210 --> 01:00:35.390
It says, don't ask, just eat it, okay?

01:00:35.870 --> 01:00:37.330
Don't ask, don't tell, all right?

01:00:37.610 --> 01:00:39.190
This is the applied to the Muslim food.

01:00:39.510 --> 01:00:42.210
But here's the thing, if they say this has been sacrificed,

01:00:42.530 --> 01:00:44.370
this is halal, what is halal?

01:00:44.730 --> 01:00:46.250
It's basically they took the animal,

01:00:46.490 --> 01:00:48.130
it has to meet certain cleanliness standards.

01:00:48.790 --> 01:00:50.970
Then they basically point the head towards Mecca

01:00:51.430 --> 01:00:53.570
and they have to slit the throat of the animal

01:00:53.570 --> 01:00:56.390
while pronouncing a blessing in the name of Allah

01:00:56.910 --> 01:01:00.050
and then it's considered halal, okay?

01:01:00.330 --> 01:01:05.850
So it has to be ritually killed in this spiritual way.

01:01:06.130 --> 01:01:07.250
And again, I've watched the videos.

01:01:07.370 --> 01:01:09.150
They have slaughterhouses where they have

01:01:09.150 --> 01:01:11.630
a Islamic priest or whatever,

01:01:11.750 --> 01:01:13.970
someone sanctioned by their mosque or whatever,

01:01:14.390 --> 01:01:16.870
they're reciting their prayers to Allah

01:01:16.870 --> 01:01:18.290
while they slaughter the animals

01:01:18.650 --> 01:01:20.790
to make sure that they meet their halal standards.

01:01:20.930 --> 01:01:22.770
That's what halal meat is, okay?

01:01:22.770 --> 01:01:25.330
It's not kosher, it's halal.

01:01:26.070 --> 01:01:28.630
Halalala, that's the kind of meat that they have, all right?

01:01:28.830 --> 01:01:31.230
Of course, it's a jihad, sacrifice or whatever, right?

01:01:32.350 --> 01:01:33.990
But here's the thing, I won't eat it.

01:01:35.530 --> 01:01:37.570
Now again, maybe I've eaten it and I didn't know,

01:01:37.910 --> 01:01:39.250
but I would never eat it on purpose.

01:01:40.410 --> 01:01:41.890
And you know what, Christians should not eat this

01:01:41.890 --> 01:01:43.770
and Christians should refuse this and bailer.

01:01:43.970 --> 01:01:46.190
Everybody that's an alum of bailer or gives money to them

01:01:46.190 --> 01:01:48.570
should say I'm refusing to support you or fund you

01:01:48.570 --> 01:01:49.550
until you shut this down.

01:01:50.450 --> 01:01:51.450
That is wicked.

01:01:51.710 --> 01:01:54.130
It is evil for bailer to sit here

01:01:54.130 --> 01:01:59.390
and to capitulate to a false God, to Islam, to Allah.

01:02:00.170 --> 01:02:01.490
I mean, just say no.

01:02:02.310 --> 01:02:04.530
We need Christians to say no, not be a pushover.

01:02:04.750 --> 01:02:06.230
And of course, why are they a pushover for money?

01:02:06.430 --> 01:02:07.210
I guarantee it.

01:02:10.490 --> 01:02:12.850
Govahut Leviticus chapter 20,

01:02:12.990 --> 01:02:14.310
if you would, Leviticus chapter 20.

01:02:14.930 --> 01:02:16.270
Here's the last point I'm gonna make

01:02:16.990 --> 01:02:19.490
in it's another pushover, it's Jeff Owens.

01:02:19.890 --> 01:02:22.950
Now, Jeff Owens was a pastor that was the president

01:02:22.950 --> 01:02:25.250
of Hiles Anderson College.

01:02:25.570 --> 01:02:27.810
He was employed on staff, I believe,

01:02:27.890 --> 01:02:30.130
for First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana for a while.

01:02:30.650 --> 01:02:32.650
And he preached a sermon in the past called Struck Blind.

01:02:33.110 --> 01:02:33.690
It was a great sermon.

01:02:34.110 --> 01:02:34.890
I really like the sermon.

01:02:35.550 --> 01:02:37.930
Obviously, in some cases, what he has said

01:02:37.930 --> 01:02:42.090
could be interpreted poorly or misconstrued by the media.

01:02:42.130 --> 01:02:43.070
And of course that's what they did.

01:02:43.590 --> 01:02:46.370
But, you know, in general, I just like the sermon.

01:02:46.650 --> 01:02:48.070
I love the sermon, I love what he said.

01:02:48.530 --> 01:02:49.910
He said a lot of things that need to be said.

01:02:50.310 --> 01:02:51.730
And I'm just gonna read lots of quotes

01:02:51.730 --> 01:02:52.550
from his sermon, all right?

01:02:52.650 --> 01:02:55.430
So, if you didn't hear it, you get to hear it right now,

01:02:55.490 --> 01:02:55.670
all right?

01:02:56.410 --> 01:02:58.830
But he was preaching on Genesis 19 and Judges 19

01:02:58.830 --> 01:03:01.010
and just Romans one and all that subject.

01:03:01.430 --> 01:03:03.870
And he said, in talking about Sodom,

01:03:03.950 --> 01:03:04.870
talking about Genesis 19,

01:03:04.970 --> 01:03:06.910
the place was full of homosexuality

01:03:06.910 --> 01:03:10.070
and people living like animals and living like beasts.

01:03:10.670 --> 01:03:12.790
And they could not find those 10 people.

01:03:13.250 --> 01:03:15.470
The homosexuals said, we want those angels.

01:03:15.990 --> 01:03:18.270
And they were trying to knock the door down

01:03:18.270 --> 01:03:20.510
to commit a wicked act with them.

01:03:20.870 --> 01:03:22.390
That's how vile the city was.

01:03:23.070 --> 01:03:25.430
The Bible says, at that moment, God came

01:03:25.430 --> 01:03:27.450
and he struck those men blind.

01:03:27.710 --> 01:03:28.090
Why?

01:03:28.570 --> 01:03:31.930
Because that's vile and it's wicked and it's reprobate.

01:03:32.170 --> 01:03:33.090
Yeah, yeah.

01:03:33.430 --> 01:03:34.590
That's why I like the sermon, all right?

01:03:35.710 --> 01:03:36.630
And just for reference,

01:03:36.750 --> 01:03:39.050
this is before the new IMB ever existed, all right?

01:03:41.090 --> 01:03:43.790
When the queer tried to get to Lot's family,

01:03:44.070 --> 01:03:45.510
God struck them blind

01:03:46.110 --> 01:03:48.150
and for God to take somebody's side away,

01:03:48.370 --> 01:03:50.790
it must be, it's a very vile sin.

01:03:51.710 --> 01:03:54.210
Genesis 19 is not a youthful mistake.

01:03:54.630 --> 01:03:57.330
God did that, do not take that back.

01:03:59.450 --> 01:04:00.610
Do not take that back.

01:04:00.770 --> 01:04:02.110
This is a quote from the sermon, all right?

01:04:03.950 --> 01:04:05.470
Then he also said, in America,

01:04:05.830 --> 01:04:08.570
we need to stop burning flags and start burning fags.

01:04:10.170 --> 01:04:12.810
He says about time somebody said what needs to be said,

01:04:12.890 --> 01:04:14.950
it's vile, it's reprobate,

01:04:15.050 --> 01:04:17.070
and AIDS is a curse sent from God.

01:04:17.510 --> 01:04:18.830
It's a curse sent from God.

01:04:19.090 --> 01:04:20.650
You say, well, you shouldn't say that.

01:04:20.790 --> 01:04:23.110
Well, you don't say it, I will, it's my turn.

01:04:24.390 --> 01:04:26.030
I'm loving this sermon, I'm just telling you, okay?

01:04:27.010 --> 01:04:28.450
He said, we need to hunt a home a week.

01:04:29.110 --> 01:04:29.970
We do, you hear that?

01:04:30.470 --> 01:04:32.570
Straighten it up, just put it on television, brother.

01:04:33.010 --> 01:04:35.890
Put it on television and put them back in the closet.

01:04:36.550 --> 01:04:38.110
The reason they came out of the closet,

01:04:38.110 --> 01:04:40.150
because there weren't enough men on the other side

01:04:40.150 --> 01:04:41.330
of the closet to keep them in.

01:04:42.050 --> 01:04:43.750
You'd be a man you wouldn't have,

01:04:44.010 --> 01:04:45.230
we wouldn't have that problem.

01:04:46.010 --> 01:04:48.130
You know, we should just take them all out

01:04:48.130 --> 01:04:50.110
and shoot them with a scattered shotgun.

01:04:50.710 --> 01:04:52.730
You say, well, you ought to love one another.

01:04:53.190 --> 01:04:55.050
I do most of the time, but you know me,

01:04:55.850 --> 01:04:57.190
he's gotta get it off my chest.

01:04:57.990 --> 01:05:00.270
If we shot them all with a scattered shotgun,

01:05:00.570 --> 01:05:01.930
I could see the TV cameras.

01:05:02.330 --> 01:05:04.190
Mr. Owens, what happened here?

01:05:04.690 --> 01:05:07.210
Look at all those spots all over them.

01:05:07.210 --> 01:05:09.650
I'd say, yeah, they died of chicken pox.

01:05:12.630 --> 01:05:14.630
Now, he preaches, I believe in the 90s.

01:05:14.770 --> 01:05:16.010
Okay, this is a 90s sermon.

01:05:17.130 --> 01:05:19.210
Again, you have to understand something.

01:05:19.550 --> 01:05:21.830
At First Baptist Church, we're talking about

01:05:22.390 --> 01:05:23.870
thousands of people in the audience.

01:05:24.650 --> 01:05:25.450
Thousands of people.

01:05:25.790 --> 01:05:26.590
You listen to this sermon,

01:05:27.030 --> 01:05:31.170
there is just roars and funders of the crowd

01:05:31.710 --> 01:05:35.650
screaming, amen, hooping, hollering, yelling.

01:05:36.070 --> 01:05:38.910
I mean, it is just on fire.

01:05:41.010 --> 01:05:45.510
Then in 2010, nearly 15 years ago,

01:05:46.190 --> 01:05:47.670
I preached a sermon that promoted

01:05:47.670 --> 01:05:49.150
physically hurting gay people.

01:05:50.330 --> 01:05:53.390
I was young, stupid, and immature.

01:05:54.210 --> 01:05:56.590
I didn't even hold to the belief of hurting people

01:05:56.590 --> 01:05:58.130
when I wrongfully made those comments.

01:05:58.930 --> 01:06:01.070
If I could retract those words, I certainly would.

01:06:02.150 --> 01:06:04.270
I wrongly represented both God and myself.

01:06:04.270 --> 01:06:06.190
I truly believe that God is a God of love.

01:06:06.870 --> 01:06:08.650
I no longer preach like that,

01:06:09.250 --> 01:06:11.170
and I purposely teach and train others

01:06:11.170 --> 01:06:12.950
to preach and behave properly as well.

01:06:13.650 --> 01:06:15.110
The hurtful words in that sermon tape

01:06:15.110 --> 01:06:17.970
were raced many years ago and somehow have resurfaced.

01:06:18.650 --> 01:06:19.290
You know how they resurfaced

01:06:19.650 --> 01:06:21.310
by being sold on his website?

01:06:22.490 --> 01:06:25.630
This is strange, you know, how it has resurfaced.

01:06:26.090 --> 01:06:26.550
Wild.

01:06:27.430 --> 01:06:30.170
But you know, it's sad to see a guy

01:06:30.170 --> 01:06:33.350
preach like that on the issue and then take it back.

01:06:33.350 --> 01:06:34.510
And of course there's pressure.

01:06:34.910 --> 01:06:35.410
But you know what?

01:06:35.610 --> 01:06:38.450
When the media says, hey, do you take back your words?

01:06:38.590 --> 01:06:38.930
You know what you say?

01:06:39.230 --> 01:06:39.550
No!

01:06:41.990 --> 01:06:43.030
You just say no.

01:06:43.990 --> 01:06:44.970
You say go to hell.

01:06:45.450 --> 01:06:46.250
That's what you say.

01:06:46.930 --> 01:06:48.250
You don't sit here and say like,

01:06:48.630 --> 01:06:50.350
oh, I didn't want to hurt gay people.

01:06:51.190 --> 01:06:53.990
I mean, if anything, if you felt it necessary

01:06:53.990 --> 01:06:56.510
to say look, they're faggots,

01:06:56.590 --> 01:06:58.010
they're reprobate, they're disgusting,

01:06:58.570 --> 01:07:00.670
and I meant the government should take them out

01:07:00.670 --> 01:07:01.670
and shoot them with a scatter shotgun,

01:07:01.850 --> 01:07:02.590
then go for it.

01:07:02.590 --> 01:07:04.150
If you want to make a slight correction,

01:07:04.350 --> 01:07:05.310
I'll stand with you.

01:07:05.470 --> 01:07:05.810
But you know what?

01:07:05.890 --> 01:07:07.130
You don't take back your words.

01:07:07.450 --> 01:07:08.690
You don't compromise.

01:07:09.230 --> 01:07:11.390
You don't just let the media push you over.

01:07:12.190 --> 01:07:14.510
And of course the same guy that gets pushed over

01:07:14.510 --> 01:07:16.910
by the media and pushed over by the faggots

01:07:16.910 --> 01:07:18.550
and changes his rhetoric on this

01:07:18.550 --> 01:07:21.430
is the same guy that, well, now he stepped down

01:07:21.430 --> 01:07:22.810
and he's divorced his wife.

01:07:26.210 --> 01:07:27.030
It's just sad.

01:07:27.890 --> 01:07:28.350
And you know what?

01:07:28.410 --> 01:07:30.470
It's an embarrassment that we have fundamental Baptist

01:07:30.470 --> 01:07:32.290
getting up and saying I'll never divorce,

01:07:32.290 --> 01:07:35.210
I'll never leave my wife, you know?

01:07:35.330 --> 01:07:36.210
And then of course divorce.

01:07:36.770 --> 01:07:40.550
Saying hey, we should literally burn flags at the stake.

01:07:41.030 --> 01:07:41.210
Okay.

01:07:41.690 --> 01:07:44.350
Saying you know, and just constantly saying like

01:07:44.350 --> 01:07:46.210
you know what you're saying and I should say it

01:07:46.210 --> 01:07:48.330
and be like, I didn't even mean it when I said it.

01:07:48.570 --> 01:07:49.470
What are you talking about?

01:07:51.570 --> 01:07:53.330
But how can you, who gets up

01:07:53.330 --> 01:07:54.630
and says things they don't even mean?

01:07:54.970 --> 01:07:55.190
Right.

01:07:56.370 --> 01:07:57.390
Riling the base.

01:07:59.130 --> 01:08:01.570
Is it the same as the passage to get up

01:08:01.570 --> 01:08:03.050
and say I've never fought with my wife?

01:08:04.150 --> 01:08:05.350
That's a lie too, isn't it?

01:08:05.950 --> 01:08:07.750
It's a lot of lies unfortunately

01:08:07.750 --> 01:08:09.350
in fundamental Baptist churches today.

01:08:09.470 --> 01:08:10.730
And it's sad, it's embarrassing.

01:08:11.150 --> 01:08:11.870
And let me say something.

01:08:12.190 --> 01:08:14.470
Look, any pastor that divorces his wife

01:08:14.470 --> 01:08:15.710
should be publicly called out.

01:08:15.810 --> 01:08:17.090
I'm sorry if you don't like that.

01:08:17.410 --> 01:08:18.810
But you know, if you put yourself in a position

01:08:18.810 --> 01:08:21.250
of being a pastor and you do something like that,

01:08:21.310 --> 01:08:21.930
you should be called out.

01:08:23.610 --> 01:08:26.430
I've had so many people get mad at me for posting that.

01:08:26.470 --> 01:08:28.230
I posted it and I just said, hey, this guy stepped down.

01:08:28.350 --> 01:08:30.410
I didn't really editorialize at all.

01:08:30.410 --> 01:08:32.370
I just simply made the, I just said statement of fact.

01:08:32.510 --> 01:08:33.770
Step down, divorce his wife

01:08:33.770 --> 01:08:36.470
and he is famously taken back as words on the sodomites.

01:08:36.910 --> 01:08:38.550
And look, I think it's the same type of person.

01:08:38.950 --> 01:08:41.150
A person that's pushed over to the media

01:08:41.150 --> 01:08:42.470
probably pushed over to his wife.

01:08:43.430 --> 01:08:45.170
Hey, you need to say to your wife, no.

01:08:45.330 --> 01:08:46.630
You see to the fags, no.

01:08:47.270 --> 01:08:48.750
We just need men to say no again.

01:08:49.750 --> 01:08:50.150
Say no.

01:08:50.450 --> 01:08:51.270
Say no to your kids.

01:08:51.850 --> 01:08:52.370
Say no.

01:08:52.650 --> 01:08:55.530
Hey, if a Muslim's asking you to make them

01:08:55.530 --> 01:08:58.550
their meal to their false God, say no.

01:08:58.550 --> 01:08:59.010
Yeah.

01:08:59.890 --> 01:09:01.230
If faggots are saying, do you really think

01:09:01.230 --> 01:09:01.910
we should put the death?

01:09:02.210 --> 01:09:03.930
You're like, yes, and I'm not taking it back.

01:09:05.150 --> 01:09:07.790
And you know, if your wife publicly humiliates you

01:09:07.790 --> 01:09:09.450
and says that you don't know what you're talking about

01:09:09.450 --> 01:09:11.890
and says you should just shut up to the whole world,

01:09:12.110 --> 01:09:13.590
you should say no to her.

01:09:14.170 --> 01:09:14.890
Like this shouldn't even be,

01:09:14.910 --> 01:09:16.510
this shouldn't even be like hard.

01:09:16.670 --> 01:09:17.390
This is easy stuff.

01:09:18.430 --> 01:09:21.070
If my wife makes a video tomorrow saying

01:09:21.070 --> 01:09:23.210
my husband doesn't know what he's talking about

01:09:23.210 --> 01:09:24.530
and needs to just shut up,

01:09:24.710 --> 01:09:27.250
well then I'm gonna take that video down.

01:09:27.250 --> 01:09:28.170
I'm just gonna be honest with you.

01:09:28.570 --> 01:09:29.590
By hook or by crook.

01:09:30.910 --> 01:09:33.110
I can figure out a way to get that down.

01:09:33.250 --> 01:09:33.670
You know what I mean?

01:09:34.530 --> 01:09:36.030
I can take a way to retract that.

01:09:36.150 --> 01:09:37.930
I can take a way to say this isn't right.

01:09:38.910 --> 01:09:42.090
I think we're safe that we're never gonna cater

01:09:42.090 --> 01:09:44.430
a halal barbecue meal here.

01:09:45.730 --> 01:09:47.190
Okay, this is not gonna happen.

01:09:47.650 --> 01:09:49.990
We're not gonna try and invite Muslims here

01:09:49.990 --> 01:09:51.250
through halal meat.

01:09:51.890 --> 01:09:53.190
Now look, if one of them wants to come

01:09:53.190 --> 01:09:54.550
and hear what we have to say about them

01:09:54.550 --> 01:09:56.430
and wants to hear what we say about Muhammad

01:09:56.430 --> 01:09:58.510
being a pedophile and their garbage religion,

01:09:58.790 --> 01:09:59.290
bring them in.

01:10:01.670 --> 01:10:06.090
And hey, if we have people that are empathetic towards fags,

01:10:06.470 --> 01:10:08.890
we'll bring them in and we'll scare them

01:10:08.890 --> 01:10:10.530
with the word faggot all day long, okay?

01:10:11.890 --> 01:10:13.370
We're not gonna let the fags come in though.

01:10:14.010 --> 01:10:15.710
It's like, hey, do you let fags come to your church?

01:10:15.850 --> 01:10:17.730
No, it's that clear.

01:10:18.210 --> 01:10:19.710
You know the old IB, they don't have that opinion.

01:10:20.790 --> 01:10:23.470
I mean the same church that got up and screamed

01:10:23.470 --> 01:10:25.650
or they're gonna burn them and hunt them down

01:10:25.650 --> 01:10:27.510
is the same church bringing them in now.

01:10:32.250 --> 01:10:34.650
How embarrassing would it be if in 15 years from now

01:10:34.650 --> 01:10:36.790
we're bringing faggots into this church?

01:10:37.590 --> 01:10:38.170
Think about that.

01:10:38.990 --> 01:10:41.170
We're not talking about a hypothetical here, folks.

01:10:41.650 --> 01:10:43.350
We're not talking about hyperbole here.

01:10:43.730 --> 01:10:44.410
And you know where it started?

01:10:44.710 --> 01:10:46.050
It started with a stupid Bible college saying,

01:10:46.550 --> 01:10:47.670
we are not allowed to use the word fag anymore.

01:10:48.570 --> 01:10:49.910
It's like, oh, I don't like pastors

01:10:49.910 --> 01:10:51.750
saying fags, sometimes visitors get uncomfortable.

01:10:52.330 --> 01:10:53.650
They were gonna get uncomfortable no matter what.

01:10:54.050 --> 01:10:55.810
They got uncomfortable just in the announcements, okay?

01:10:56.730 --> 01:10:59.330
Let alone me preaching, okay?

01:11:00.050 --> 01:11:02.010
And look, I get that I don't have to be

01:11:02.010 --> 01:11:03.370
as offensive as I am sometimes.

01:11:03.550 --> 01:11:04.930
I get that my personal opinions

01:11:05.290 --> 01:11:06.650
rub people the wrong way sometimes

01:11:06.650 --> 01:11:09.310
and I try to scale that back as much as I can.

01:11:09.590 --> 01:11:11.810
But at the end of the day, for the most part

01:11:11.810 --> 01:11:13.210
people are upset because of what the Bible says.

01:11:13.850 --> 01:11:15.170
And you know what, I'm not gonna apologize

01:11:15.170 --> 01:11:15.730
for the Bible.

01:11:15.990 --> 01:11:17.250
I'll apologize for my actions

01:11:17.250 --> 01:11:18.690
but I won't apologize for what the Bible says.

01:11:19.790 --> 01:11:21.090
And we should not take it back.

01:11:21.590 --> 01:11:23.430
And you know what, I am not gonna divorce my wife

01:11:23.430 --> 01:11:26.170
and if God forbid a weird universe happened

01:11:26.170 --> 01:11:30.290
and I did, you can rub my nose in as much as you want, okay?

01:11:30.770 --> 01:11:32.790
Because you know what, we need Baptist pastors

01:11:32.790 --> 01:11:35.170
to be ashamed and embarrassed and not go down that path.

01:11:35.350 --> 01:11:37.790
And we need to stop encouraging people to do this

01:11:37.790 --> 01:11:38.910
because when the pastor divorces

01:11:38.910 --> 01:11:40.210
everybody else divorces with them

01:11:40.210 --> 01:11:42.670
and it's just, it's like a green light to this nonsense

01:11:42.670 --> 01:11:44.810
and it's weird how they divorce

01:11:44.810 --> 01:11:46.690
and then they just pastor another church

01:11:46.690 --> 01:11:49.810
or they keep preaching or they have weird situations

01:11:49.810 --> 01:11:52.270
happen with their family or people are knowing

01:11:52.270 --> 01:11:53.750
that there's a weird adulterous situations

01:11:53.750 --> 01:11:56.030
or they shuffle them around and move them to other churches.

01:11:56.350 --> 01:11:58.090
I mean this stuff is happening all the time, it's gross.

01:11:58.530 --> 01:12:00.290
And people will always get mad at the new IP

01:12:00.290 --> 01:12:03.270
and they'll be like, oh, you guys always have issues

01:12:03.270 --> 01:12:04.250
and look at the problems

01:12:04.250 --> 01:12:05.550
and look at the people that are called out.

01:12:05.870 --> 01:12:07.570
Yeah, you know what, I'd rather call people out

01:12:07.570 --> 01:12:08.890
than keep shuffling them around.

01:12:10.130 --> 01:12:10.910
What do you want?

01:12:11.270 --> 01:12:12.410
You can't have your cake you needed to.

01:12:13.370 --> 01:12:14.910
Well, how dare you keep calling out

01:12:14.910 --> 01:12:15.590
Cassandra and Merchant?

01:12:15.710 --> 01:12:18.050
Well, how dare her keep having stupid opinions?

01:12:20.130 --> 01:12:23.210
And look, I feel like she's on a trajectory

01:12:23.210 --> 01:12:24.770
to become like, she's trying to be like

01:12:24.770 --> 01:12:25.730
the next Candice or whatever.

01:12:26.090 --> 01:12:30.650
I think that Mrs. Infinite Bad Takes is just getting started

01:12:30.650 --> 01:12:31.430
folks, okay?

01:12:32.810 --> 01:12:34.830
And so buckle up, Buttercup,

01:12:35.330 --> 01:12:37.270
because I'm here to continue to say no.

01:12:38.810 --> 01:12:39.930
Because you know what, as my job,

01:12:40.190 --> 01:12:41.390
it's important to call things out

01:12:41.390 --> 01:12:42.810
and you know what, I think these people

01:12:42.810 --> 01:12:44.410
are more dangerous than the Candizoans

01:12:45.390 --> 01:12:47.310
because with Candizoans you don't even take it serious.

01:12:47.450 --> 01:12:48.530
With these it's like, oh, but they're a fundamental

01:12:48.530 --> 01:12:51.110
Baptist and oh, they say they're not a feminist

01:12:51.110 --> 01:12:53.090
and oh, they say they have traditional values

01:12:53.090 --> 01:12:54.570
while she trashes her husband.

01:12:55.070 --> 01:12:57.750
Well, and again, I didn't have, for a sake of time,

01:12:58.010 --> 01:12:59.310
I'm not gonna elaborate on this too much,

01:12:59.350 --> 01:13:01.970
but she literally advocated that it'd be

01:13:01.970 --> 01:13:07.410
a more viable option than what Lindsey Clancy did

01:13:07.410 --> 01:13:11.130
to just abandon her children at home, literally.

01:13:11.410 --> 01:13:13.050
She said, hey, if you're just having

01:13:13.050 --> 01:13:15.190
a depressive episode or you're feeling bad,

01:13:15.430 --> 01:13:17.390
why don't you just put your kids in a safe place,

01:13:17.390 --> 01:13:20.650
literally abandon them, abandon them,

01:13:20.950 --> 01:13:22.590
text your husband and say, I'm done.

01:13:24.030 --> 01:13:25.230
This is psychotic.

01:13:25.710 --> 01:13:26.570
It's illegal, number one.

01:13:27.250 --> 01:13:28.330
Don't try this at home.

01:13:28.690 --> 01:13:30.310
You try this, you could get arrested,

01:13:30.710 --> 01:13:32.050
you try this, you could get CPS

01:13:32.050 --> 01:13:33.230
to take your kids away from you.

01:13:33.870 --> 01:13:35.570
You do this, it's a literal crime,

01:13:35.910 --> 01:13:37.670
and of course they could die from something

01:13:37.670 --> 01:13:40.330
so stupid and reckless and insane.

01:13:40.790 --> 01:13:41.750
It's literally insane.

01:13:42.210 --> 01:13:44.370
Any woman that would say something like this,

01:13:44.550 --> 01:13:45.910
she's getting up and she's putting it,

01:13:45.910 --> 01:13:48.230
she's like sandwiching it with reasonable ideas

01:13:48.670 --> 01:13:50.110
to make it almost seem like it's palatable.

01:13:50.790 --> 01:13:52.890
It's like, no, never do this.

01:13:53.130 --> 01:13:54.090
Never commit a crime.

01:13:54.850 --> 01:13:57.290
Just because something could be technically worse

01:13:57.290 --> 01:14:00.170
doesn't mean the alternative is okay.

01:14:01.390 --> 01:14:04.330
It's like, we're not trying to figure out

01:14:04.330 --> 01:14:06.390
which sin is the lesser sin

01:14:06.390 --> 01:14:07.690
so that we can do that option.

01:14:08.250 --> 01:14:08.850
It's just you don't sin.

01:14:09.530 --> 01:14:10.390
You don't commit crimes.

01:14:11.110 --> 01:14:13.110
You don't do something that's wrong or evil.

01:14:13.550 --> 01:14:14.050
And you know what?

01:14:14.170 --> 01:14:17.190
She's just planting ideas into women's minds

01:14:17.690 --> 01:14:19.450
that this is kind of cool or normal.

01:14:20.590 --> 01:14:21.650
Look, I'm not joking.

01:14:21.830 --> 01:14:23.410
There are women that will hear this kind of stuff

01:14:23.410 --> 01:14:25.470
and they will literally do weird things.

01:14:25.830 --> 01:14:27.230
They'll make bad decisions.

01:14:27.670 --> 01:14:29.630
They will just run away

01:14:30.130 --> 01:14:32.250
or do something foolish with their kids

01:14:32.770 --> 01:14:35.070
or just lie about their husband.

01:14:35.170 --> 01:14:36.670
Just do weird stuff to get away

01:14:36.670 --> 01:14:38.490
because they just feel sad or something.

01:14:38.810 --> 01:14:40.070
Look, if you feel sad,

01:14:40.690 --> 01:14:42.650
if you're having a hard time with pregnancy

01:14:43.090 --> 01:14:44.110
or childbirth, whatever,

01:14:44.450 --> 01:14:46.050
talk to your husband about it, okay?

01:14:47.030 --> 01:14:48.950
Do not just randomly surprise him

01:14:48.950 --> 01:14:50.870
with some text of you going insane, okay?

01:14:52.190 --> 01:14:53.990
You talk to him, ask him for help,

01:14:54.150 --> 01:14:55.830
ask him to do whatever you need.

01:14:56.250 --> 01:14:57.550
You know, to be communicated to him.

01:14:57.810 --> 01:14:59.310
Hey, husbands, help your wives,

01:14:59.470 --> 01:15:00.750
love your wives, do good unto them.

01:15:00.970 --> 01:15:01.470
But you know what?

01:15:01.870 --> 01:15:03.730
Do not hurt your child.

01:15:03.850 --> 01:15:05.070
Do not ever leave your child.

01:15:05.270 --> 01:15:06.070
It is illegal.

01:15:06.830 --> 01:15:07.530
It is a crime.

01:15:07.690 --> 01:15:09.350
It's a felony to leave a child in a car

01:15:09.350 --> 01:15:10.330
for like five minutes.

01:15:10.770 --> 01:15:13.430
If you leave a child in the car alone, unattended,

01:15:13.590 --> 01:15:14.910
and the vehicle's not running especially,

01:15:15.870 --> 01:15:18.530
it is like a felony offense, okay?

01:15:18.790 --> 01:15:19.790
Do not ever do this.

01:15:20.290 --> 01:15:22.770
Do not ever leave your children unattended like that.

01:15:23.110 --> 01:15:24.870
Don't leave them unattended near a swimming pool.

01:15:25.150 --> 01:15:26.370
Don't leave them unattended.

01:15:26.730 --> 01:15:28.290
You know, this idea of a safe room,

01:15:28.770 --> 01:15:32.130
there's no house that has a safe room, okay?

01:15:32.290 --> 01:15:36.550
For babies and toddlers, everything's a hazard, okay?

01:15:37.010 --> 01:15:38.830
This is crazy, okay?

01:15:38.830 --> 01:15:40.070
It's an oxymoron.

01:15:40.750 --> 01:15:42.170
And look, if you're listening to this woman,

01:15:42.910 --> 01:15:43.270
you know what?

01:15:43.410 --> 01:15:45.190
You're just risking yourself to get infected

01:15:45.190 --> 01:15:46.370
with all kinds of stupid ideas.

01:15:48.270 --> 01:15:50.550
She needs to be unplugged, okay?

01:15:51.790 --> 01:15:53.550
And I'm not saying like die, okay?

01:15:53.710 --> 01:15:54.150
Don't hear me wrong.

01:15:54.270 --> 01:15:55.510
I'm just saying good night.

01:15:56.170 --> 01:15:58.910
I'm saying like, someone needs to shut down

01:15:58.910 --> 01:16:01.770
the YouTube videos of trashing her husband, all right?

01:16:03.670 --> 01:16:05.110
Sorry, I had to make that real clear.

01:16:06.070 --> 01:16:06.710
Good night.

01:16:08.030 --> 01:16:10.410
And look, I don't wish evil upon her.

01:16:10.490 --> 01:16:12.530
I just wish that her husband would just tell her no.

01:16:12.930 --> 01:16:14.970
And I think that would be good for her, okay?

01:16:15.070 --> 01:16:15.950
And it'd be good for society

01:16:15.950 --> 01:16:17.750
and women wouldn't get bad ideas.

01:16:18.010 --> 01:16:18.610
Let's close in prayer.

01:16:19.290 --> 01:16:21.070
Thank you Heavenly Father so much for the word of God.

01:16:21.230 --> 01:16:22.890
Thank you so much for giving us authority structure.

01:16:23.070 --> 01:16:25.490
I pray that we'd have men that are willing to say no,

01:16:26.350 --> 01:16:27.770
that we'd have men that are willing

01:16:27.770 --> 01:16:30.530
to just not capitulate to their wives

01:16:30.530 --> 01:16:32.790
that are not gonna just be compromisers,

01:16:32.870 --> 01:16:33.890
not gonna be pushovers.

01:16:34.310 --> 01:16:36.330
I pray that we would actually have Christians

01:16:36.330 --> 01:16:39.550
that are actually promoting Christianity and not Islam

01:16:40.370 --> 01:16:42.550
and would say no to false religion.

01:16:42.690 --> 01:16:44.250
I pray that you would give some backbone

01:16:44.250 --> 01:16:45.930
to Christians in this country again.

01:16:46.510 --> 01:16:47.910
I pray that you would just help men

01:16:47.910 --> 01:16:51.330
to realize how disgusting and evil and vile faggots are

01:16:51.330 --> 01:16:53.490
and that they could just be warned from them.

01:16:54.190 --> 01:16:55.530
And I pray that you would help

01:16:55.530 --> 01:16:57.470
Baptist pastors in this country,

01:16:57.970 --> 01:17:00.410
just the few that stand to just be a good example.

01:17:00.630 --> 01:17:02.050
We need some good examples in this country.

01:17:02.150 --> 01:17:03.250
We need men to love their wives.

01:17:03.350 --> 01:17:05.030
We need men to be faithful to their wives

01:17:05.030 --> 01:17:07.770
and not divorce their wife.

01:17:08.570 --> 01:17:10.030
I pray that you would just help this church

01:17:10.030 --> 01:17:11.890
to be a good example in such a dark world.

01:17:11.990 --> 01:17:12.830
In Jesus' name we pray, amen.
