- 2:21on this Friday with
- 2:23this may be an unusual Friday. We've got our eyes peeled on the horizon for mister Brent Winterson. He has not as of yet appeared.
- 2:33And, we have not, to my knowledge, heard from him. I I know he did his
- 2:38I know he did his thing with sheriff Dar this week because I got the notification on Thursday and then the,
- 2:45the Wednesday, and then the,
- 2:47event they taped came there,
- 2:50so he's been working.
- 2:51And but to my knowledge, nobody's heard from him. We hope, well, I know everything's alright or else he wouldn't have been doing that, but,
- 2:59we'll see what happens a little bit at a time. Hopefully, he'll Brent show up.
- 3:04And this is the June
- 3:0726,
- 3:08right towards the end of the month, one day after
- 3:11our
- 3:12the guy that is the benefactor for all this knowledge,
- 3:16John Benson's 90 birthday would have been. Try and celebrate that and commemorate that.
- 3:22Radio ranch, Roger sales, half the half of the, duos here,
- 3:27and, it may be that that's who we have today. Don't know. We'll see. This is new territory,
- 3:34Paul.
- 3:35But, if you would please, first of all, give us, you've got something to say here, I think.
- 3:41Unknown: Yeah. Real quickly. Our website is thematrixstocks.com,
- 3:46and,
- 3:48there you will find links to free conference calls so you can
- 3:52dial in and join the conversation
- 3:55live.
- 3:56Unknown: There you go. How was I'm very curious. How was the English show yesterday?
- 4:01Unknown: Oh, the English show was
- 4:04a technical challenge.
- 4:06Paul's Internet connection,
- 4:09and on Paul's Internet connection,
- 4:12like, it was it was really strong for part of the first hour and then forty minutes in,
- 4:19he dropped off completely
- 4:22and
- 4:23there was nothing but dead air because
- 4:27the only person in the studio was Eric
- 4:30and he didn't apparently didn't feel like talking to himself.
- 4:34I hadn't been brought into the studio yet, so I couldn't,
- 4:38you know, do the wingman thing.
- 4:42And
- 4:44oh,
- 4:45Paul's connection throughout the show wound up getting dropped 20 or 30 times.
- 4:51Oh,
- 4:52Unknown: that's a measure. Well,
- 4:55Unknown: when he dropped out after
- 4:59the third hour guest, oh my god, Monica Schaefer.
- 5:03The third hour guest came in, then she and Eric were able to carry the show and I had been brought into the studio by that time. So
- 5:13Yeah. And so he
- 5:15he kept dropping out and popping in, dropping out and popping in. Mhmm. So I I sent him a copy of my local recording of the program, which at least is solid
- 5:26because his recordings were broken into 25 pieces, and he just wasn't going to assemble them all.
- 5:32So I said, dude, here,
- 5:34Unknown: take my recording. You can you can play with it, and then you can upload it as a podcast. So that's what he planned on doing. That's when you kinda scratch everything. I'd have walked away anyway. I'm sure Paul's got such a better disposition in in comes to approaching those sorts of things than myself
- 5:52notoriously
- 5:53in certain circles.
- 5:55Anyway Well, if I had Sorry that happens. You know? I was curious as to if he,
- 6:01if you got to expose them to any of the wonderful,
- 6:04wonderful things we've seen in the last couple of days.
- 6:08Unknown: The I had sent it to him.
- 6:11And I asked him about it, and he said that he had heard it before,
- 6:16but he didn't go through the link that I sent him, so he didn't do that on the show yesterday.
- 6:22Unknown: I see. That's
- 6:24the German guy. Right? Or not not the person. Not the oh, okay.
- 6:28And then, of course, Tucker Carlson. Now he just Tucker
- 6:32is a hardworking dude, man. I mean, he's pumping these these hour and forty five, two hour interviews out, several of them a week.
- 6:41I know it can't be easy to do. He likes to do them evidently in person because many of these people are are in the same room.
- 6:50And, boy, he's pumping them out. The new one, I've seen this guy before. I think I saw him over on Infowars.
- 6:56Evidently, he used to live in DC. He's a writer. He's got a lot of expertise. Anyway, it's good.
- 7:01But what we spent the majority of the show on yesterday was the one the the second one. If you go to your wherever you get your tuckers,
- 7:08and,
- 7:10it's the second one up, I think, would be,
- 7:15this fellow on the origins of Christian Zionism.
- 7:18We talked about it ad nauseam almost the whole show yesterday,
- 7:23But it's as in-depth a dig on that some of that stuff as I've ever experienced
- 7:28in all my years of asking questions about it and wondering and not having answers.
- 7:35And I hope it did the same for you. We encourage everybody to watch that one.
- 7:39The latest one, which I just finished right before the show is pretty good too. I like that guy. He's got a kind of a chuckily sense of humor, but he's got a lot of deep connections in DC. And
- 7:49and, of course, we we're seeing
- 7:53we're seeing does it look like I see a a job? By golly,
- 7:59would it be that someone appeared here with us today?
- 8:03Mister Brennan, is that you, sir? Is that you, sir?
- 8:06Unknown: Yeah. I'm here. I'm interrupting the conversation.
- 8:09Unknown: No? Yeah. No. We're waiting for you to join it. Oh, hey.
- 8:15Yeah.
- 8:17Unknown: Well, Paul Paul has sent me a clip to listen to.
- 8:22Thanks, Paul. He's sending that. Did you? I listened to it twice because I'd listened to it before. See, old JD
- 8:30JD Hall and I have been through a scrape or two together,
- 8:35a legal scrape.
- 8:36And,
- 8:38he we weren't adversarial.
- 8:40I mean, we were on
- 8:42the way same side, and I'm glad you sent that, Paul. But
- 8:46no. JD, you know, he checked out for a while.
- 8:50Unknown: I I'm still this is first time I've heard the guy's name. I mean, I guess Tucker introduced him at first, but it went right past me. His name wasn't in credit in the what the episode was. Can you tell us a little bit about him since you have a relationship there, Brent?
- 9:05Unknown: Oh,
- 9:06well, yeah. That'd be fun. Fun to talk about other people.
- 9:12Yeah.
- 9:13I can say nice things, of course.
- 9:16JD is from
- 9:18the wilds of Missouri someplace. He grew up there.
- 9:23He grew up Baptist.
- 9:25I may I take pleasure
- 9:28in saying I'm not a Baptist and don't wanna be.
- 9:31If you are, well, that's okay.
- 9:34But,
- 9:35Baptists have been a very
- 9:37powerful influence in our country. It's part of America.
- 9:41Baptism or baptism? No. Baptist.
- 9:44But JD grew up, and you can imagine, Missouri culture.
- 9:49You know, Missouri is one of those places where
- 9:52the Baptists
- 9:54not too many years ago. Maybe it's still that way.
- 9:57The Baptists control everything. I mean, they even control the bench of the state Supreme Court there for a while.
- 10:03It's a powerful force. And, of course, Missouri
- 10:08Missouri
- 10:10was a hotbed of radicalism
- 10:13and and violence during that awful war we keep talking about.
- 10:18It was such a
- 10:21powerful change in America. That war were not it was all bad.
- 10:26Anyway, he grew up in that world, and he's,
- 10:29then he ended up pastoring a church
- 10:32in the wilds of Montana. Now
- 10:34Montana,
- 10:35some parts of it are
- 10:38more desolate than others. But if you go to the
- 10:42Eastern Montana where it borders North Dakota, that's getting about
- 10:47as far from nowhere as you can get in in America. And
- 10:51he he, pastored a Baptist church there
- 10:55until very recently, by the way. And he was constantly running back and forth, if you can imagine. It's a long drive.
- 11:02Running back and forth to
- 11:05state capital at Helena.
- 11:08He was an activist,
- 11:10a a political
- 11:12activist,
- 11:13to no small degree, and he
- 11:16had a
- 11:17website called Pulpit and Pen,
- 11:21or they say around here, Pulpit
- 11:23pulpit and pen.
- 11:25And he was a powerful
- 11:27writer. He calls himself a polemist,
- 11:31and he deals in polemics.
- 11:34You know, in the Christian world, you got your evangelist,
- 11:37and you got your apologist,
- 11:39and then you got your polemist.
- 11:43And he figured, well, nobody else is
- 11:46occupying that
- 11:48position. I'll be the polemist.
- 11:50Well, that goes right along with being a Baptist because
- 11:54Baptist air their
- 11:55differences in public more than most other groups.
- 11:59They wanna fight right in front of the world. I mean, we're talking
- 12:03intervarsity here within the denominations.
- 12:06You know? They and then they like to fight within Christianity,
- 12:10the the different.
- 12:11You know, one fellow told me well, I first ran into him because he
- 12:15did a debate with a fellow by the name of,
- 12:20Joel McDermott.
- 12:22And Joel was a young firebrand.
- 12:25He's a lawyer now down in
- 12:28down in Atlanta,
- 12:30does criminal defense. But he from my neck of the woods, and his father was sheriff of a small county down there and
- 12:37in,
- 12:38along the Ohio River in Indiana. Not Jasper County. I don't believe it was. Oh, well.
- 12:45Well, his sister,
- 12:47Joel's sister,
- 12:48was
- 12:50the main chef at that big hotel down there that
- 12:54that organized crime belt back in the nineteen thirties
- 12:58down in, French Lick. You know, French Lick's where
- 13:04Larry Bird is from. Right.
- 13:06Yeah. French Lick. Well
- 13:08Unknown: Oh. Oh.
- 13:11Unknown: Joel's from down there.
- 13:13Well
- 13:14Unknown: I got a fun I got a funny story on Bird. I'm not gonna interrupt you right now. Just please remind me later because I know you'll appreciate it. Go ahead. Well, Larry, you know, back in our part of the world, he became the state bird.
- 13:26Unknown: I didn't really know what the state bird is of Indiana anymore after Larry came on the scene. And
- 13:33and
- 13:34Unknown: Well You know, Larry Larry what's that, Roger? Well, I'm just gonna go ahead and tell you because I might forget. It's funny. I was watching I've been watching the braves a lot, and one of the braves announcers,
- 13:44and it was a pitcher formally, and his father's name is Larry Bird.
- 13:49And he was in played in in Boston when he was going to Boston.
- 13:54At some big game, he'd call up the restaurants and say, I need a table for Larry Bird. Larry Bird, of course. Of course.
- 14:02Then he shows up and shows him my ID, and the guy goes, you got me. Here's your table.
- 14:09I thought of you, and I thought that was so funny.
- 14:12Unknown: Well, Larry,
- 14:14we could talk about this later. You know what? Larry was
- 14:17of Celtic extraction,
- 14:19but not Irish.
- 14:21He didn't know anything about Boston, didn't fit in there. Culture was had nothing to do with Boston culture is
- 14:29Irish, you know, that's why they call them the Celts, but
- 14:34old Southie, you know, the South Side Of Boston, the Irish took over.
- 14:39Don't know if it's that way now. I've only been to Boston once and in my I don't wanna go back, by the way. It's one of I remember some stories about it. Let me tell you something on the World Cup, the Scottish World Cup. Art Barnes talking about this.
- 14:52Unknown: They played up in Boston.
- 14:54The fans drank Samuel Adams brewery
- 14:57dry.
- 14:59Unknown: I
- 15:00believe it. I believe it. You know, the old, had a couple of guys, well, his name is Clark,
- 15:07and, we had that big tank farm there for Marathon Oil Company, had a big tank farm there, was largest in the world one time.
- 15:16And,
- 15:18he was Irish, of course, and,
- 15:21but he stayed drunk all the time and everybody knew it. The guy had a lot of money, he worked there. You know, you got those jobs at the tank farm, that was a good job. You didn't have to work very hard. They paid you real well, those
- 15:33kind of jobs.
- 15:35He was the one that asked me one time, I knew his boy and we were friends,
- 15:40and I
- 15:41was over at the house and
- 15:44he said, you know why God invented whiskey?
- 15:46I said, no, mister Clark. Why?
- 15:50He said,
- 15:51to keep the Irish from taking over the world.
- 15:55That was their
- 15:56well, you know, they used to say in Butte, Montana. I went through there one time. Big hubbub going on in town. I couldn't get a room anywhere.
- 16:03Not that big a town. You know? It's not tiny, but it's not big.
- 16:08And, I asked the gal at the desk at the hotel. I said, what's the
- 16:13what's the, all the hubbub around here about? He said, oh, we're having a mayoral election here. And, boy, that's the biggest event in town.
- 16:22I said, well, I didn't know anything about their
- 16:25political culture. And I said, well, who's gonna win? Well,
- 16:29she said, we got a problem. We told this one fellow running,
- 16:33said you gotta in order to be mayor in Butte, Montana, you gotta be CIA.
- 16:38I
- 16:39said, CIA?
- 16:41She said, yeah. You gotta be Catholic, Irish, and alcoholic.
- 16:51Of course, they had all those Irishmen there.
- 16:53They they were the ones working that big that big copper mine. You know, that thing is huge.
- 16:58Anaconda?
- 16:59Well, it's near Anaconda,
- 17:01but it I I think they did own it at one time, Roger. Now that I think about it, I think that was Anaconda.
- 17:07Yeah. Of course, the smelter that everybody knows about was
- 17:11way outside of town miles away. You can see it from the main road. You've seen it maybe sticking up, that big stack sticking up out the road. Something like that. Not that one exactly, but I know what you're talking about. Can get my kind of mind's eye of it. Yeah. It's right near the town of Anaconda.
- 17:28Unknown: But coming back to oh, we got off on Larry's phone. I wanted to find out more about this guy that did the interview. He had more information on some of these subjects
- 17:38that I've wondered about for many decades.
- 17:41I never had the answer for until this interview. I was very impressed with him, and now to find out that you had some sort of interactions with him, I I wanna hear the rest of as Paul Harvey would say, the rest of the story.
- 17:54Unknown: Well, he was always getting in trouble in Montana because of his political. He's a polemicist,
- 18:00and he calls himself a polemicist.
- 18:02And, know, you as I've said, you got your
- 18:06Christian evangelist.
- 18:07That's a man that deliver the gospel.
- 18:10Euangelion,
- 18:11and the words in the New Testament,
- 18:13lots. Euangelion,
- 18:15and that's the word translated
- 18:17gospel.
- 18:18If a Christian says, well, I'm not one of those evangelicals.
- 18:20I've had people tell me that all my life because I guess they don't like them. I say, well, then you're not a Christian. That's truth.
- 18:27You ain't evangelical.
- 18:28You ain't Christian. That just means that the gospel is the center. It's the good news. It's not the bad news. It's good news. Euangelium.
- 18:36Angelus.
- 18:37Angelus is
- 18:39the word in the noun form. We we don't translate it. We just call it angel. It means message or news
- 18:45and messenger.
- 18:47And and
- 18:49e u, the prefix epsilon, upsilon,
- 18:53means
- 18:54well or good.
- 18:57And the
- 18:58gospel gospel is the theme of the whole bible cover to cover, lid to lid. And this is what JD was saying to
- 19:06to Tucker about the gospel. You know, Tucker grew up Episcopalian,
- 19:10apparently. Yes.
- 19:11Which is,
- 19:12American Anglicanism
- 19:14is what it is, just a different name. Same thing.
- 19:17Well, the Puritans are Anglicans.
- 19:20The the the
- 19:22pilgrims that came to America were Anglicans.
- 19:25Never said they weren't Anglicans. Matter of fact, that's what they were.
- 19:29And they controlled parliament in England during the
- 19:32war with the crown back in the sixteen forties.
- 19:36And the Puritans
- 19:38were the were the
- 19:41what we call well, since the the first centuries of Christianity, they were the evangelicals.
- 19:46So what they called themselves, they understood that. They
- 19:50they were the the new middle class,
- 19:52and they
- 19:53understood who they were and the and the Scotch Irish Presbyterians
- 19:57as well. They were evangelicals
- 19:59and that they still are.
- 20:02Now the Puritans are gone. They they got, they got got to promoting.
- 20:08Well, let me get back to JD. So JD is a grew up Baptist in Missouri, and he
- 20:13became a preacher. He went off to school and
- 20:16learned how to be a preacher, I guess.
- 20:19And then he was causing trouble there. Of course, he would down everybody. I mean, his polemicist polemicist
- 20:24activities.
- 20:25Polemic, that's a word in in Greek that means war.
- 20:29War.
- 20:31Polemic.
- 20:32Uh-huh. That means you're always fighting. You're one of the guys you're born in the object objective
- 20:37case. You Uh-huh. You're a contrarian.
- 20:39You're fighting with everybody. Well, that was JD, and no kidding, boy. Well, I know some of those.
- 20:45Oh, he could find yeah. JD could find something wrong with everybody. I mean, I I was on his show one time, a nice show, and he was usually right, I have to say.
- 20:56But
- 20:57he was talking to me, and he I said something that he didn't disagree with just right. And he said, look, Brent, before you spoil this program,
- 21:07let's change the subject. I said, why?
- 21:10And he said, well, I don't wanna talk about it now, but you just said something I don't agree with.
- 21:16He was cocked and loaded for bear to jump on the first thing that disagreed with him. Well, that has its place. And,
- 21:23that was what he carved out for himself. And he did a lot of complaining about other people. And then he got crosswise with some
- 21:30see, they had that tribe up there, let's see, in Montana that that had the crows
- 21:36Crow Indian tribe Crow Agency. Yeah. The crows and the Blackfeet.
- 21:40And, another one or two well, they in the state house up there,
- 21:44they had a couple of sodomites
- 21:47that were black feet Indians.
- 21:49Hell, that's what it was. See, the sodomites are trying to go to the the indigenous tribes and find,
- 21:56see if they can find sex perverse. If they can find that in, then they promote them.
- 22:00Unknown: I don't know. See there see there see there the basis of America right here. Show it to you. Yeah.
- 22:05Unknown: That's kinda what it was. Well
- 22:07Unknown: and and Thomas Jefferson, they used to used to bet as the slave there. Remember that? We can't prove that either, but we'll bring it out just for for the moment because it'll catch people's minds.
- 22:20Unknown: Oh, yeah. And it it does. And,
- 22:23well, he
- 22:25that's not a slam on them. And I've known plenty of
- 22:30tribal
- 22:31members,
- 22:32but that's what people call them out there now. They don't call them Indians anymore. They call them tribal
- 22:38tribal members. Oklahoma
- 22:40too, I think. Oh, yeah. And, of course, Indian is the word we've used all our lives. We grew up with it. But it does mean people from India. That's how that's how they it came into the
- 22:53into being used for the tribal people. Because when Columbus got to the New World, he thought he had arrived at India.
- 23:00That's where he was trying to get. Yep. Open up a trade route, and he saw all these
- 23:05people who are darker skinned than him a little bit and started calling them Indians, and it stuck. And we've been calling them Indians ever since.
- 23:12Well, he got crosswise with them, and then he got crosswise all the stuff that happened to him. You know, if you're a contrarian like that, pretty soon the devil's got your number. I mean this sincerely. I'm not just spinning off Christian
- 23:27ease when I say the devil got your number. No. The devil had his number, and and he'll orchestrate things to destroy you. You can't control it. You you better you better be better
- 23:38be careful.
- 23:39And, he was coming back.
- 23:43You know what I ought to do? I ought to get him on here. Maybe we can maybe I can bring him on God, I wish would you please?
- 23:49Unknown: Would you please? That
- 23:51Unknown: that I could do maybe.
- 23:52But I'll find out. See, here's the problem
- 23:55about me getting getting him on the show.
- 23:59After that happened, and this is all over the Internet. I'm not talking about something that's not public record. Uh-huh. He was having
- 24:08well, he's got some challenges in his family.
- 24:12Got a he got a nice wife.
- 24:13He got nice children, decent, nice children. But there had been some problems with
- 24:21that had nothing to do with the law or people doing something unlawful,
- 24:24it just had problems
- 24:26that had to do with,
- 24:29well, frankly, one of his
- 24:32and I I can say this too. I had two daughters. I guess this is something that isn't
- 24:37there's nothing shameful about it. I had have two daughters out of my brood that
- 24:42born hearing impaired,
- 24:44and we didn't know it for a long time. Then you my dad, my father noticed that one of them didn't notice a noise that was being made.
- 24:52Then he got to sneaking around her and whispering behind her back and see if she'd hear him, you know, and found out that they did. Well, he had a child like that too.
- 25:02But,
- 25:03you know, if you have that kind of thing,
- 25:06it's
- 25:08nice to
- 25:10be able to
- 25:12have someone to help train them how to talk
- 25:15more clearly, because
- 25:16they can't hear,
- 25:18and so they they can be dutchy in their speech sometimes.
- 25:22Unknown: Yes.
- 25:22Unknown: Now,
- 25:27that that's a whole another story. But,
- 25:30oh, here's what happened, JD.
- 25:33So he somehow
- 25:34got on a
- 25:36he was having some kind of a problem. I don't know what it was, and you can go to the Internet and read about it.
- 25:42But it was some kind of prescription drug. And then he
- 25:45got stopped along the road and
- 25:48cop said he was drunk.
- 25:50Well, he didn't drink,
- 25:52but he
- 25:54was off kilter because of the medication.
- 25:57And it got worse from there, but that
- 26:01caused a terrible problem.
- 26:03And he went violently, he went into seclusion,
- 26:07and I couldn't get in touch with him. And I, back at that time, I said, hey, JD,
- 26:14I'm gonna let you know I'm thinking about you.
- 26:16But he just checked out for a while till he could whatever it was, the physical imbalance he had, he was trying to get it under control. Moved
- 26:24back to Missouri and
- 26:26and, he was doing like me, raising goats, although I've given up. I did that for a long time. We used to milk goats.
- 26:32Dog gone, those critters. I love them, but they're just on top of you all the time. And I mean, on top of you. They're up on your porch, on your car, on your truck.
- 26:42All they think, if they've gotta get up higher, you know, on Yeah. Top high ground. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. A mountain animal. Then if there's anything a little higher, they're on top of it. Well,
- 26:52I mean, I've seen goats jump on top of,
- 26:56well, other animals and stay there, and the other animals get used to it. They just stand there, you know. They're bigger. They can stand on them. They're fun to watch and be around. And as they say, they're cute as a dickens and a bug's ear, as they say.
- 27:09Well, JD, though, I'm seldom I can think of a couple of men I've known in my life
- 27:17that have the mental capacity
- 27:20to remember everything about other people.
- 27:24And some
- 27:26men, as a polemicist,
- 27:29that means you criticize other people for where they're wrong.
- 27:32He he does it professionally.
- 27:35And he has the uncanny ability to remember everything
- 27:39wrong
- 27:40about other people. You say, well, that doesn't sound right. Well, it it can get to you after a while. A fellow needs to be careful.
- 27:46I remember a new David Noble used to be that way, and David's still alive, but he
- 27:52could remember everything wrong. And this is a what it comes to in polemics is false doctrines.
- 27:58That's
- 27:58that's the thing that a polemicist
- 28:01observes
- 28:02is false doctrine.
- 28:05And he
- 28:06he believes it's his idea to correct it. Now
- 28:10I believe that is true. I believe there are men that are called to be nothing but pains in the neck. I believe that.
- 28:17And, god calls all different kind of people.
- 28:20I don't get to thinking you're one of them. That it's a hard row. I wouldn't wanna be a polemicist.
- 28:25I can think of enough bad things about other people that I don't have to major on it, and, of course, then to confront other people the way JD does.
- 28:34Now I listened to this
- 28:36interview with Tucker.
- 28:38I looked at him and I said, shucks. I he was talking about things I don't When
- 28:43was the last time you spoke with him? Oh, it's been five years. Because he his problem,
- 28:49when he just checked out and checked out of everything for a while and moved back to the wilderness of the Ozarks or wherever he was and back home.
- 28:58And he started raising goats.
- 29:01I couldn't he wouldn't talk to anybody. He was in seclusion
- 29:04and people were trying to get in touch with him. He had a lot of acquaintances, you know, because he was a well known public figure.
- 29:11And I
- 29:13had different avenues to try to text him. He finally then came out with,
- 29:19him and his wife, came out with a video
- 29:23to everybody
- 29:24to tell everybody that he was okay.
- 29:26Thanks for your concern. Trying to get in touch with me.
- 29:30And they did a video where he explained everything that happened to him. You can find that on the Internet too. And it's it's
- 29:37instructive to listen to because
- 29:40it's his it's his
- 29:41hard times and experience and what happened to him.
- 29:45And he
- 29:47got got down pretty far. One of the quotes that people were banding around about him was,
- 29:52after that happened, he said, I don't being a pastor of a church is the most miserable existence
- 29:58any man could ever have. Oh my lord.
- 30:01And he wasn't kidding. And I could relate to what he was saying. I've tried it. Just it can get it can get hard.
- 30:08Well, in his case, I think what it was with him,
- 30:11he was young and he thought he thought he could conquer the world.
- 30:16Ah. You know, when you're young, it's like, when I ran for congress, I thought I was gonna conquer the world. I and
- 30:23I poured my life into it, my heart and my soul and money.
- 30:27And, boy, I went whole all out whole hog. You know? I'm still trying.
- 30:32Yeah. Well, but but you're smarter about it, Roger. Oh, yeah.
- 30:36I would say when JD when this happened to JD, he was young
- 30:40younger, by five or six years, and he hit the wall.
- 30:44And trying to take care of other people's business and Mhmm. Take care of other people's other women's husbands because they were drunk or on drugs and trying to help them and are not working and go getting up in the middle of the night and going to people's houses that were having problems. And Yep. That's the kind of thing that preachers do. And it's it's tough.
- 31:04Yeah. It's not you and a matter of fact, it's it's undoable in many ways. And you learn as you get older.
- 31:10Well, here I'm not I'm not Jesus Christ. What can I do? Here's what I can do. And you do what you can do and you learn what the limits of mortality are. And I I think him being a hard driving man,
- 31:22which is a good thing. And when you're young, you do that, but you find out. Every man who's hard driving and is conscientious,
- 31:29finds out, wait a minute,
- 31:32I'm I'm not working
- 31:33smart. I'm working hard. Yeah.
- 31:35I'm I'm not working smart.
- 31:38And I'll I'll I'll kill myself. You know, Elvis Presley's mother said to him
- 31:43at one time, Elvis, a man only has so much energy in one life.
- 31:48And once you've used it up, he'll take you. The Lord will take you.
- 31:53And, Elvis, you're you're running on high octane too fast. You can't last forever.
- 31:58In other words, what a man needs to learn to do, and Paul the Apostle says this in the Bible,
- 32:03he says, run so as to win. Don't just run hard.
- 32:08Run so as to win.
- 32:10And that means it's a long race,
- 32:14And you wanna run as fast as you can,
- 32:17but you wanna run as fast as you can to have enough energy to keep running. You
- 32:22wanna pace yourself.
- 32:24My father called it calls it still. He calls it plotting. Men plot.
- 32:29My father was always a plotter.
- 32:31He got up way before daylight and went to bed way late, but he never stopped.
- 32:37And when he told me to fetch me a wrench, he meant run.
- 32:41And I as a young fella, I'd run.
- 32:43But he didn't run when he got older. I'd watch him jump off the tractor before it stopped moving and put one hand on the gas tank, the other on the on the fender when he came in the field, that old w d 45 when we were planting. He'd throw out the hand clutch and then he'd
- 33:00vault.
- 33:01Dad would vault
- 33:03off the tractor. He was going a 100 mile an hour when he was young. I remember.
- 33:08But he learned to pace himself and plot when he got older. And you can get more done when you're older, I've learned,
- 33:15than you did when you were younger because you're moving,
- 33:19but you're moving smarter.
- 33:21And you know what's important and what movements to make, and you're not wasting time nor energy. And that's called?
- 33:27Claudine's
- 33:28oh, wisdom. Wisdom. Yeah.
- 33:31Wisdom. That's right, Roger.
- 33:33And, well, back to JD. Well, JD,
- 33:36ambitious man. He hit the wall in him. He took your little wife,
- 33:40cute little button that she is, and took her back to Missouri.
- 33:44And I couldn't get in touch with him. And I saw this video he put up
- 33:49and explaining to his friends, him and his wife both talking, explaining their experience.
- 33:55It was traumatic.
- 33:56And, if you can find it on the Internet, find it and listen to it. When I saw him on
- 34:02Tucker popped up and I saw him
- 34:04and I watched him a while and I said, Manish, that guy looks familiar.
- 34:09Who who who has their eyes
- 34:12set like that?
- 34:13And some somebody I knew had eyes like that that looked like that, that stared like that. Well, who was it?
- 34:20Finally,
- 34:21I looked down at the caption and said, J. D. Hall. I said, oh. Well, here's what had happened to him. When he got down and out, he physically went out.
- 34:30And he he lost so much weight. He'd had to stood up twice,
- 34:35just to make a shadow. You know? He was he was gone
- 34:38physically,
- 34:39emotionally,
- 34:41spiritually.
- 34:42And I didn't recognize him. He looks
- 34:45pale and healthy now.
- 34:47And I was glad to see that. And he did,
- 34:50on that Tucker show,
- 34:52a better job of talking, and he'd always done a good job.
- 34:57He did a better job of talking
- 34:59and laying it out clear
- 35:01than I've ever heard him lay out the gospel itself.
- 35:05He did a great job. And, so I commend it. I'm glad Paul sent it to me. I'll listen to it again, Paul.
- 35:11Unknown: Have you watched the whole interview, or did you just see the clip? So you saw the whole interview. Oh, no. I I listened to the whole thing. Yeah. I'm about to listen to it again. I I Yeah. Rick mentioned it the other days. We were closing out the show. Those snippets were floating.
- 35:25I had seen it posted,
- 35:27but I hadn't had time to watch it. And so immediately after the show, I went over there and got half of it under my belt. But I wanted to tell you because it kinda involves you,
- 35:37in the way that we take,
- 35:39you know, your presence because we missed you last week.
- 35:43And, and we missed that because we missed what you bring to the table here on all this in-depth
- 35:49explanation
- 35:49and the words and what they mean and where they came from and all that kind of stuff.
- 35:54But there's one I've been wanting to ask you about, and it's funny because last week, I was going to, and we get off in those discussions, and it doesn't seem appropriate to interrupt.
- 36:06But he answered something I've had a curiosity about for thirty, forty years and never gotten an answer.
- 36:13What is the definition of dispensationalism?
- 36:17Unknown: Oh, I'm glad you brought that up. And that is that's something that's been in my wheelhouse deep
- 36:22since I got serious about the Bible back in my early twenties.
- 36:26And I ended up,
- 36:29I wrote my master's thesis on the
- 36:33on the subject,
- 36:35the
- 36:36advisor for my thesis was a well known dispensationalist.
- 36:40Oh. And
- 36:41I liked him, I still like him. He's still alive. His name is, he's Canadian.
- 36:46He but he spent his life down here in America.
- 36:50And his name was Paul Enns, e n n s.
- 36:54And he was from Dallas Seminary.
- 36:57And Dallas is the
- 36:59is the intellectual center has been the intellectual center of dispensationalism
- 37:04in America.
- 37:06And one of my professors when I was in school was in
- 37:10the first graduating class at Dallas,
- 37:13and he was a Jew named Charles Lee Feinberg. See, that goes together, being a Jew. Yep. And he ended up
- 37:20well, he was with professor
- 37:23William Foxwell Albright at John Hopkins when
- 37:27the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered. And John or William Foxwell Albright was the
- 37:33head of the doctoral program of
- 37:36biblical archaeology at John Hopkins.
- 37:39And, Charles Lee Feinberg
- 37:42was,
- 37:43his protege.
- 37:45And Hopkins,
- 37:46was the one that finally authenticated
- 37:48the
- 37:49Dead Sea Scrolls for being authentic Essene documents.
- 37:54The Essenes were
- 37:57a powerful culture in the first century. The Essenes, the New Testament
- 38:01gospel records never mentioned the Essenes,
- 38:04but Jesus Christ said a lot of things that were directed directly at them
- 38:09because he referenced
- 38:11their doctrine, there were the Sadducees
- 38:14and the Pharisees. Those two, the gospel records mention a lot.
- 38:19Jesus Christ went head to head with them. But then there were the Essenes, and they were a sect of Judaism as well.
- 38:26And Jesus Christ,
- 38:28references them.
- 38:29When he's a Jesus Christ was a polemicist,
- 38:33you see. That's why he was correcting
- 38:36he was correcting Jew the false doctrines of Judaism. That's all the gospel records are.
- 38:42And then he he made a point of taunting them until he until they murdered him. That was his job. He he had to get himself murdered.
- 38:50And by the way, during that presentation that JD, he makes the point that, well, people have been arguing for a long time about who
- 38:58who killed Jesus Christ.
- 39:00Well, the answer to that question, he didn't get to this, but I'll give the answer. It's a biblical answer. The Bible says who killed Jesus Christ.
- 39:09God the father
- 39:10is the one that slew Jesus Christ.
- 39:13And God the father says so in the prophet Isaiah.
- 39:17He is the one that put him to grief, says Isaiah.
- 39:21He is the one that struck him.
- 39:23And God is not on anybody's side.
- 39:26He doesn't come but take sides. As we've we've said, he come to take over.
- 39:31And,
- 39:32the the evil apostates,
- 39:34the Judaists, the Jew the Jew the Judaites, I call them,
- 39:40they were they were they were the pawns in what God wanted to do.
- 39:46The John three sixteen says,
- 39:49for God so loved the world that he gave there's the verb. He gave
- 39:54his uniquely
- 39:55begotten son.
- 39:57We don't have a good English word to translate that word.
- 40:02That word,
- 40:04monogenes,
- 40:06only. That's that's that's not even close, really. It's uniquely.
- 40:11We don't have a we have,
- 40:13onlyness,
- 40:14one
- 40:15of a kind. We have a phrase for it. See,
- 40:18we're born from above too. We are sons of God, but we're not born like him by through the womb of a a virgin by the power of God the spirit. That's uniquely begotten.
- 40:30He's a god man.
- 40:32And
- 40:33but God the father is the one that gave up his uniquely begotten son
- 40:40freely and then made sure that he was killed.
- 40:43And that's why Jesus Christ prayed in the night before he was murdered.
- 40:48He knew what he was doing, and he said,
- 40:51if you could take this cup from me, that's what I'd want you to do, but not my will, but thine be done. And remember, this is the sovereignty of God,
- 41:01and this is what JD is too. But coming back to dispensationalism,
- 41:06big fancy word, Darby, an Irishman.
- 41:11All of us are selfish and have been to varying degrees, but Darby took the cake.
- 41:16Not only was he well, he was filled with himself.
- 41:20Handsome son of a gun. That doesn't help sometimes. You know, there's some people in the world that are too good looking for their own good.
- 41:28He was like that, and he thought that he was God's gift to a lot of things.
- 41:33And he got the screwy idea. He's the founder of the Plymouth Brethren.
- 41:37The Plymouth Brethren. You see, the Plymouth Brethren, they don't they come in and take over. They're the dispensationalists.
- 41:44They they took they took over, for example, Moody Bible Institute at one time, and I don't know how strong their influence is there now.
- 41:52Moody didn't know nothing about dispensationalism.
- 41:55I read a dissertation one time about dispensational
- 41:58but the question of the of the guy that wrote his doctorate of diss dissertation was, was Dwight
- 42:04D. L. Moody a dispensationalist?
- 42:07Well, nobody knows because he never said. And
- 42:11so he went through all of his scraps of paper. D. L. Moody
- 42:14hardly knew how to read and write. You know, he was one of those kind of guys. He didn't I think he went to the third grade or something like that.
- 42:21But he was a great evangelist, not a polemicist. You can listen to his sermons, they are something else. You talk about the ability to communicate.
- 42:32We don't have we have one audio,
- 42:35One audio of his voice was
- 42:38put on an Edison graph on a on a spool back about 1910
- 42:42or just before he died. Uh-huh.
- 42:45He didn't have a a voice that was commanding.
- 42:48It was he that didn't make any difference. If somebody said that D. L. Moody was gonna
- 42:53speak at McCormick Place in Chicago,
- 42:57if it got out in the newspapers, when he got there, there'd be eight to 10,000 people there to hear it. How do how do you explain something like that? And
- 43:06it was that way everywhere D. L. Moody went. Australia,
- 43:09he went to England, same thing.
- 43:11He was a contemporary of Charles Spurgeon, and Spurgeon, same way. Every Sunday when Spurgeon preached in London at the Tabernacle, he called it the Tabernacle, there'd be at least 8,000 people there to hear him, and he didn't he didn't have a microphone. Right. You know, if you've got 8,000
- 43:27men and women in a building,
- 43:29they're sitting pretty close to each other, scrunched up,
- 43:33that observe
- 43:34that many people absorbs
- 43:37the sound.
- 43:39And if it's almost
- 43:41beyond superhuman that anybody could stand in a building packed with that many people and be heard because of the absorption of the sound.
- 43:51They had, of course, the architects back then, they had
- 43:54it wired how to make a building work like that.
- 43:57McCormick Place was like that.
- 44:00But,
- 44:02Darby,
- 44:03it always comes down to two things with dispensationalism.
- 44:08The law of God doesn't matter anymore,
- 44:12and the Jews
- 44:14are God's chosen people to rule the world.
- 44:17That's fundamentally what it is. Period. Mhmm. And
- 44:22Dallas Seminary
- 44:23has taken that idea
- 44:25and made it into a a sophisticated
- 44:28doctrine.
- 44:30Now,
- 44:32Dallas Seminary, was talking about Charles Lee Feinberg, this Jewish fellow, he grew up in Philadelphia.
- 44:38And
- 44:39of course, he was a dispensationalist.
- 44:41And here's the odd thing,
- 44:43I just report facts on this. Like
- 44:46to report facts on what the Bible says too. Really, I like to report facts. I just if I think it's a fact and I believe it's a fact and I know it's a fact, well, then I'll probably start reporting it. And this is on good evidence about Charles Lee Feinberg, because I sat and listened to him in a little classroom for a long, long time. He was a
- 45:05hardcore dispensationalist.
- 45:07Of course, that would go along with the idea that, well, I'm Jewish, so I'm special, see?
- 45:11And he wasn't a nice fella. He was he was just downright mean, you know, intellectually.
- 45:17Unknown: And I I I like that. I like that many of them are,
- 45:21but when I say the majority. Yeah.
- 45:24Unknown: He was my archaeology
- 45:26professor when I was in school. He he knew his stuff.
- 45:30He knew Hebrew, learned it when he was a kid, and studied to be a rabbi.
- 45:34Mhmm. And,
- 45:35though I might it's not that I know everything about dispensationalism,
- 45:39but I was exposed to men that
- 45:42that were well versed and hardcore
- 45:45into it. Well, Charles Lee Feinberg was the first man to receive a a PhD from Dallas Seminary,
- 45:52that first the first man at age twenty
- 45:55twenty three.
- 45:57He was one of those proteges, he thought, you know. Well, he
- 46:01went to teaching at Dallas and then he ended up at Biola later on.
- 46:06And
- 46:10he taught
- 46:11the dispensations.
- 46:13You know, if something is dispensed,
- 46:16it's a dispensation.
- 46:18And that's why they call it dispensationalism.
- 46:20Darby in England
- 46:22started Charles Burgeon said to Darby, was an absolutely
- 46:26dangerous man. Stay away from him. And there was no man in England or in all of all of the English speaking world back
- 46:33at the end of the eighteenth century 18
- 46:36into the nineteen hundreds, him and D L Moody were friends.
- 46:40They were beloved. When Charles Spurgeon preached,
- 46:43his sermons were immediately
- 46:45telegraphed around the world and within print within an hour or two in a lot of places and disseminated his sermons. Yikes.
- 46:53He was Charles Spurgeon
- 46:56was the last of the Puritans.
- 46:59The last of the Puritans.
- 47:02And
- 47:03that means that he was
- 47:06he lived on war grade
- 47:08Calvinism.
- 47:11War grade.
- 47:13What does that mean? That means, as I've said before, try to find different ways to communicate this.
- 47:18God doesn't take sides. What's that? I don't like the label Calvinism because I don't particularly like Calvin.
- 47:25Really, Martin Luther is the one that discovered the doctrine,
- 47:28the sovereignty of God,
- 47:30the election of God,
- 47:32the choice of God.
- 47:34Who are God's people?
- 47:37Does God choose one and not another?
- 47:41And the Bible says in clear, crystal clear terms,
- 47:45yes.
- 47:46You know, for example, we're talking about
- 47:50Tucker Carlson raised Episcopalian.
- 47:53Well, the the Anglicans and the Episcopalians,
- 47:56they their doctrinal statement is called the 39 articles.
- 48:01The 39 articles about as Calvinistic as you can get.
- 48:05What I mean to say is the official doctrine of the Anglican church, which is the
- 48:11church
- 48:13of the state
- 48:15of England.
- 48:16State church,
- 48:19and
- 48:20it's Calvinistic to the core. That's why the Puritans were Calvinistic. That's why the 39 articles
- 48:26say God chooses his people. His people don't choose him.
- 48:29He picks out from among others
- 48:32his people.
- 48:33Why does the why did the 39 articles say that? Because that's what the Bible says. And when the Bible was discovered and it came to the forefront, what happened, of course,
- 48:44the Constantinople had become the
- 48:47center of the Roman Empire under the Emperor Constantine.
- 48:51And
- 48:53when Constantinople
- 48:55became the last vestige of the Roman Empire
- 48:58in 1453,
- 49:00surrounded by 180,000
- 49:02Turks that had a cannon
- 49:04had a brass cannon that fired a 1,200 pound projectile rocker. Oh. Can you imagine?
- 49:10Designed
- 49:11by a turncoat engineer named Urban
- 49:14Gietes.
- 49:16The Turks didn't have the
- 49:19means to design and build something like that, but Urban did it for them. They blasted away at the wall. No, you hit something in the same place enough times, it'll fall apart, it'll disintegrate. Yep.
- 49:30And they blasted away. They weren't stupid back then. That's called stress strain
- 49:35rupture.
- 49:36They fired that cannon at the same place in
- 49:39the Wall Of Constantinople
- 49:41until it just all of a sudden just exploded into a million pieces.
- 49:45And then they charged in and killed But when that happened,
- 49:49the priesthood of the Roman church, and remember, the Orthodox church and the Roman church, that's the same bunch.
- 49:56Same roots,
- 49:57same stupidity.
- 49:59It's all the same. But what they did have
- 50:03were the
- 50:04myriads of manuscripts
- 50:06of the New Testament in Greek. Handwritten
- 50:09manuscripts going clear back
- 50:11one fragment we have goes clearly back about a 100 AD, the first century
- 50:18of the eighteenth chapter of John.
- 50:20Well, they they hightailed it out of there,
- 50:23and they got away.
- 50:25With the jewel. Don't forget the jewels too. And the the crown jewels of Rome that went to Moscow, and that's why yeah. The czar. Czar is the is the Russian
- 50:36language way of saying czar.
- 50:39And
- 50:40they said, we are the Roman empire. We got the crown jewels. We'll pick up where they left off.
- 50:45And
- 50:46so that was the rise of Russia was on the Roman
- 50:50the idea that
- 50:52they were
- 50:53true Christianity and the true the Orthodox Church is true Christianity,
- 50:58which is nothing but the Roman Church without any definitive doctrine. No, Rome
- 51:04did. Rome did, see, in the West.
- 51:06The Roman church
- 51:08the Roman church
- 51:10not only
- 51:11retained
- 51:13but even refined
- 51:16the preciseness
- 51:18of Christian doctrine.
- 51:20And they did a good job of it.
- 51:23The Orthodox Church
- 51:26didn't define it, they
- 51:29disintegrated
- 51:29it.
- 51:30Or Orthodox
- 51:32Church, they don't believe anything. They have no standard that even discernible about who God is.
- 51:38The West does
- 51:40for that reason. And it and a lot of it,
- 51:44it coincides
- 51:45with the Bible, but that was forgotten
- 51:47because Rome became so powerful where Luther got to notice in the Bible, and he noticed the sovereignty of God.
- 51:53Dispensationalism
- 51:55means that God has dis that's what they believe, that God has dispensed
- 51:59different ways of bringing people to eternal safety, salvation,
- 52:04through the centuries. And
- 52:06they have definite cutoff points of these different dispensations.
- 52:11But to put it in a general nutshell,
- 52:14out of the classic seven dispensations of dispensationalism,
- 52:19and JD mentioned these, out of the
- 52:22seven classic dispensations,
- 52:25there isn't
- 52:26a person in any dispensational church, never has been one,
- 52:30out
- 52:31of 10,000 that could tell you what they are. But here is what people do get.
- 52:36Well, they get this, two dispensations.
- 52:39They say, God dealt in the Old Testament,
- 52:42salvation was by works,
- 52:45keeping the law.
- 52:46And when Jesus came, that all changed, and now salvation
- 52:49is by grace through faith
- 52:52without the works of the law. Mhmm.
- 52:55Is that true?
- 52:57Well, yeah, that's always been true, but here's what they get wrong. There's no dispensation to it.
- 53:02Salvation
- 53:04from hell,
- 53:05safety from hell,
- 53:06eternally,
- 53:07has always been, since Genesis chapter one, verse one, by grace through faith.
- 53:13Abraham in the twelfth chapter
- 53:15of Genesis,
- 53:16which they talked about, whoever blesses you is blessed and whoever curses you is cursed,
- 53:22chapter 12 verse three.
- 53:25Salvation
- 53:26to Abraham was by
- 53:28faith,
- 53:30by grace through faith.
- 53:32And that is what
- 53:34I wrote my thesis on. I was talking about dispensationalism.
- 53:37I had to write it in such a way, though, that I didn't offend
- 53:41Paul Inns. He was my adviser.
- 53:44I had to write it in such a way it didn't offend him, but make the point that this is silly.
- 53:51God said to Abraham, when he finally cut the covenant, they call you know, you've heard about, I'm gonna cut you a check. I'm gonna cut you a deal. Sure. Well, ancient Hebrews talked that way too. And every time they talk about what people talk about the covenant,
- 54:06there's the word, the verb for cut, carafe, is in front of it, cut a covenant.
- 54:11Because two reasons for that, and in our common law, we have it too. We
- 54:16cut a trust indenture
- 54:18and we call it
- 54:20an indenture.
- 54:22But why we call it an indenture? Because it has indentions in it.
- 54:27We
- 54:28used to, before the printing press in Old England, they'd make a trust
- 54:32document.
- 54:33By the way, trust documents, we call them a common law, we call them indentures.
- 54:39And the reason we call them indentures is because we always we had two copies on the same sheet,
- 54:44the same piece of bellum, the same piece of hide.
- 54:47One copy on the right, one copy on the left, they're exactly the same. Then they took a pen knife and cut a squiggly line and cut them in two.
- 54:56You got your copy and I got my copy.
- 54:59And if we ever have a dispute, we bring them together. And if the
- 55:03serrated
- 55:04indentures on the edge of the documents fit like a puzzle,
- 55:08then that's the proof that
- 55:10this is what we agreed to. We both signed both of them. We yeah. Call them
- 55:15Unknown: That same
- 55:16approach was done with money and tally sticks in England.
- 55:19Unknown: Yeah. No, that's right. No, it's an indenture. It's called indenture.
- 55:23Well, the also though, they cut with Abraham,
- 55:27the fifteenth chapter,
- 55:29Yahoa, who was Jesus Christ before he entered the stream of Adam's race,
- 55:35Yahoa
- 55:36cuts a covenant with Abraham.
- 55:39And
- 55:40in the sixth chapter
- 55:43in the sixth chapter,
- 55:46the Bible says
- 55:47and the Hebrew text says,
- 55:50the verse starts like this,
- 55:53Now
- 55:58if your ear is alert,
- 56:00you can hear a word in there
- 56:02that has become a very prominent part of our English tongue.
- 56:08And that is the word Amen.
- 56:10Wahe'emen.
- 56:13Wahe'emen.
- 56:14And translated,
- 56:16and Abraham
- 56:19trusted
- 56:22God.
- 56:24And the rest of the verse says, and God
- 56:27logged it down
- 56:28to him
- 56:30for righteousness.
- 56:33That right there
- 56:34is the gospel.
- 56:36That's what the whole Bible is about.
- 56:40That God saves men by His choice without
- 56:43the works of the law.
- 56:45You don't do anything to get into the kingdom of God. You don't do anything to get the new birth any more than you had to do something
- 56:53when you were born of the flesh the first time. That's why the analogy is so good.
- 56:58Now who chose your birth in the flesh the first time? Your father.
- 57:03He figured out finally how to seduce your mother somehow
- 57:07and here you are.
- 57:09And that's the way God the odds says, Peter says in the New Testament through God says, pouring his truth through the personality of Peter,
- 57:17that the Bible, the word of God is the spederma in
- 57:22the Greek tongue, he said. The sperm, the seed.
- 57:25And when the seed, when you hear the seed then Martin Luther said this, when the seed,
- 57:30when the seed, the word of God hit
- 57:33the Virgin Mary's
- 57:35eardrums,
- 57:36Martin Luther said this, he's right.
- 57:39He said that's like, and because Peter says this, when the
- 57:43spherima, the sperm of God penetrates
- 57:46the ovum called faith,
- 57:49what happens
- 57:51when those two gametes come together?
- 57:55Well,
- 57:56you get the new birth, you get the conception. And
- 58:00once conception occurs, birth will occur, period.
- 58:04Unknown: And in reality,
- 58:05there's a spark when that happens
- 58:08inside the
- 58:10Brent, I'm gonna interrupt
- 58:12because we got a new wrinkle here.
- 58:14It should be coming up in just a second. We got a little top of the hour thingy
- 58:20where we take a little bit of a break and,
- 58:25sync everything up in case other
- 58:27platforms want to sync in and carry part of our broadcast. Paul, of course, set this all up.
- 58:33Mhmm. And so I'm it's pretty new. I think we hadn't even done it the last time you were here. We weren't doing it. And, so anyway, I'm kinda
- 58:43dribbling, double dribbling until the music starts here in a second,
- 58:47and you got about ten
- 58:49Unknown: seconds to say. Than a minute away. Oh,
- 58:52Unknown: it is?
- 58:53Unknown: Yeah. It's it's more than a minute away. And it happens at fifty nine. And so actually, no Hey, Roger. Hey, Roger.
- 59:01Hang on, Larry. Larry, we'll get you after the hard break. This is not something we can stop.
- 59:07So
- 59:09just just hold on. Hold on there.
- 59:13I wanna this is Paul from the Radio Ranch and Global Voice Network. I wanna thank all of the syndications

- 59:29and everything else. So we'll be back with the Radio Ranch with Roger Sills and Brent Winters in two minutes. Thanks. There's a method to the madness, and hold on, Larry. We'll get to you.
- 59:42Unknown: Now there's a couple of seconds I can talk here, then Paul's got something embedded in this, and I'll just

- 1:00:54Thank you so much for your patience.
- 1:00:58Unknown: We have a the classical interlude.
- 1:01:09Unknown: The piece of music from instruments that never were and never will be.
- 1:01:15I'll explain that after the top of the hour.
- 1:01:37Unknown: We're back. Alright.
- 1:01:40Unknown: Yes. And let me add
- 1:01:42yeah. Just a whole just a second, Paul. I want to say this is to me, it's audio
- 1:01:48sherbert, like a scoop of sherbert. Don't know what your favorite flavor is
- 1:01:52for your mental palate.
- 1:01:54So we will cleanse your mental palate. Just start the second hour. Go ahead, please, Paul.
- 1:02:01Unknown: Do you know what that is? That that piece of music is 30 years old.
- 1:02:05Unknown: Is it Star
- 1:02:07Unknown: Wars?
- 1:02:08No. No. It's it's 30 years old.
- 1:02:12That is actually a MIDI file,
- 1:02:15a music into digital interface
- 1:02:18data file,
- 1:02:19and that was a computer.
- 1:02:21Every single instrument you heard was generated by a computer
- 1:02:26and exported to high definition digital audio.
- 1:02:31There were no instruments.
- 1:02:33There were no players, and that is over 30 years old.
- 1:02:36And
- 1:02:37the
- 1:02:39the computer that actually did that
- 1:02:42Yeah. Was running the original
- 1:02:45Windows
- 1:02:46version three one.
- 1:02:48Unknown: Wow.
- 1:02:49Yep.
- 1:02:51Unknown: Well We have come a long way. The good old days are good and gone, evidently, it would appear. Yes. Okay, Brent. We're gonna get right back into the stream of things here. Our palates are cleansed. And I'm very excited that you, I got Larry in a second. I that you know JD. Is it JD
- 1:03:12Hall?
- 1:03:16Brent, are you there? H a
- 1:03:19Unknown: l l.
- 1:03:20Unknown: Hall. Okay. JD Hall. I was very impressed with him. If you can get him on the show, man, please do tell him we would love
- 1:03:28to have him on the air to discuss some of these things
- 1:03:31and appreciate what he's already let out through Tucker.
- 1:03:36Now let's see. Larry,
- 1:03:39let me guess. You have a question.
- 1:03:41Unknown: I do.
- 1:03:43So since,
- 1:03:44since, Brent, since you were on the subject of trusts,
- 1:03:49and I don't I don't want you to spend a whole lot of time on this answering this question, but if you could just
- 1:03:56kinda go over it again.
- 1:03:58So
- 1:03:59don't you have some stories you can retell
- 1:04:03involving the IRS being able to
- 1:04:06bust the trust?
- 1:04:09And
- 1:04:09can trust give people a false sense of security against the IRS or
- 1:04:14any federal or state
- 1:04:17government agency?
- 1:04:18And does it depend upon
- 1:04:21how the trust was set up that makes it safe?
- 1:04:24Can you go over that again?
- 1:04:27Unknown: Well,
- 1:04:28people have made a lot of money
- 1:04:31and are still you can go to the Internet and find find them,
- 1:04:34promoting the idea that a trust will protect you from taxes.
- 1:04:39And, that's
- 1:04:42false
- 1:04:43fundamentally.
- 1:04:45That's not what trust are for. And, government, to make it worse,
- 1:04:50governments in our English speaking world have been at war with trust beginning with Henry the eighth who pushed legislation
- 1:04:57through parliament
- 1:04:59to
- 1:05:00destroy them all. He thought he had to figure out how to do it.
- 1:05:04And,
- 1:05:05fortunately for us and and
- 1:05:08England's a common law country and the courts
- 1:05:10are independent of the king
- 1:05:13and they ruled in a way that he didn't expect. And so the trust,
- 1:05:18the common law feature was saved,
- 1:05:21saved for us
- 1:05:23through the courts in England way back there when Henry VIII tried to destroy them. And it all came down to taxes.
- 1:05:30A trust have
- 1:05:31their uses,
- 1:05:33but it's dangerous and the trust
- 1:05:36for the federal government, for example
- 1:05:39let me back up.
- 1:05:41You know, only the federal government
- 1:05:44no state government has the authority
- 1:05:47under our constitution of The United States. No state government has authority
- 1:05:51to impair the obligation of contract, that's constitutional
- 1:05:55doctrine.
- 1:05:57But the federal courts do have that power, we call it bankruptcy.
- 1:06:01Unknown: And
- 1:06:04Unknown: Congress, of course, has established bankruptcy courts to do that very thing, impair the obligation of contracts. That's what bankruptcy is,
- 1:06:13doing away with them or impairing them.
- 1:06:16And so not only the bankruptcy courts, but if you go into a federal court, federal courts do it habitually.
- 1:06:22Nobody talks about it and nobody mentions it, but it just happens all the time.
- 1:06:27And, the trust is one of the things if you get into a squabble with the
- 1:06:32general government, the IRS, for example,
- 1:06:35over trust,
- 1:06:37they'll
- 1:06:38they'll try to ignore it. They'll try to do away with it.
- 1:06:42They have all sorts of angles. You can't imagine how
- 1:06:46how creative they've become,
- 1:06:49but
- 1:06:50they don't have authority as a matter of law to do all the things they do. There's more to it than I can tell here. Yeah. The main thing is don't put your trust in trust promoters. That's the main thing. Don't do that. They'll they'll skin you out of your money and you you go to jail. And I'd spent a few years
- 1:07:08in that world defending people
- 1:07:11defending people that
- 1:07:13had
- 1:07:16had trusts and were accused of not properly paying taxes. Sometimes it was true,
- 1:07:21sometimes it wasn't true.
- 1:07:23But in all cases, of course, my purpose was to settle the case and not have it be a criminal matter. Just a well, what is it? A matter of fact, you know, America was at that time when I was doing that, the only country in the world
- 1:07:38that would send people to jail for not paying taxes.
- 1:07:43If they they can get your money, why send the guy to jail? He'll keep working and he'll keep paying.
- 1:07:48It seems to be a sensible thing and a lot of countries do that.
- 1:07:52But, of course, getting tax money out of people here is not about the government needs the money. They don't need the money. They print That's
- 1:08:00not the problem.
- 1:08:01The reason they take tax money
- 1:08:04is part of the system
- 1:08:06that
- 1:08:09the Federal Reserve Bank and the IRS runs, they have to have both of them at the same time or the system won't work. It
- 1:08:16gives
- 1:08:17Unknown: them the power to equalize
- 1:08:19the fluctuating
- 1:08:21medium, which is the circulating
- 1:08:23Unknown: debt. That's right. Yeah. And they it's just like a pop valve on a boiler. Yep. The you they keep you know, if you keep stoking the fire and the keep making steam and the boiler doesn't have an outlet, the pressure will get greater and greater and greater. Yep.
- 1:08:38And Roger and I have talked about this before. I like to use that analogy.
- 1:08:42Well, if you can take some of that that's what inflation does. They pump money into the economy and it just blooms up bigger and bigger and bigger. Yeah. At some point, it explodes.
- 1:08:51Unknown: Yep.
- 1:08:51Okay. That's the best analogy I've ever found to describe
- 1:08:55the monetary system to people as a boiler. It's perfect. Go ahead, Brent. A balloon, same thing. So
- 1:09:02Unknown: they
- 1:09:03the the tax system allows the
- 1:09:07the Fed to suck
- 1:09:09like it sucks steam out of a boiler before it blows up with a pot Yep.
- 1:09:14Tax system,
- 1:09:16the IRS sucks
- 1:09:17money out of the system using taxes at massive amounts. And that way there, they can control it if it gets out of control because the politicians
- 1:09:26will pump it full of money to make them look like the I mean, you believe going back, going back, not too many years ago, telling people, hey, you you can't pay your payroll.
- 1:09:38We'll give you a loan,
- 1:09:40the federal government. And they give loans for 10,000,
- 1:09:43a 100,000.
- 1:09:44I know people, I know lawyers that did that.
- 1:09:48Oh, just lied about it too, by the way. Yeah. Said they were, and and millions of people over the country, and they just printed money and gave it to them. Then they forgave all the loans later. Yep.
- 1:09:59To to get political votes, that's what it's all about. See? The the radio station that I started at?
- 1:10:07Unknown: Mhmm. It it got into bankruptcy in the savings and loan debacle with the with one of the Bushes ran Silverado savings and loan. Remember that? Mhmm. Mhmm. Well Yeah. The guy I worked with and a friend of his had bought the radio station right before that. They paid their payments, and that happened.
- 1:10:27Sent a guy all the way over from Dallas, sit down, talk to him, pay your pay your monthly payment, etcetera, etcetera. This under
- 1:10:34remember, the government consolidated
- 1:10:36that all into the resolution trust authority or something. Mhmm. K? And so the guy came over, talked to him, and he said, okay. They paid payment next month, came, paid a payment.
- 1:10:48And, so they wrote the guy said, listen. We're not gonna pay any more payments if we don't get a coupon book.
- 1:10:54Mhmm. No answer. No book.
- 1:10:56Mhmm. They stopped paying. They got free radio stations.
- 1:11:03They got a free
- 1:11:05radio station
- 1:11:07Mhmm. Folks.
- 1:11:09Unknown: Mhmm.
- 1:11:11The madness of the economic system when you're you don't have any found there's no foundation for the value of our
- 1:11:19monetary
- 1:11:20unit
- 1:11:21units and that and that becomes the subject of manipulation
- 1:11:24Unknown: for the profit of thieves. So that's what you got. And if any of you wanna verify that, the call letters were WDLP.
- 1:11:34K? Go look at it.
- 1:11:36It's been they switched it and traded it to the college out there, Gulf Coast College,
- 1:11:42and then they got a FM. And they gave Gulf Coast College this AM low dial position 59,
- 1:11:50and a real strong signal, you know, right there on the Gulf Coast. Good skip waves,
- 1:11:55all that kind of stuff. So yeah. But that station I started at, sure enough. Oh,
- 1:12:01Unknown: I'll be
- 1:12:02well,
- 1:12:03that's what's going on with that, and I'm glad you asked about
- 1:12:07dispensationalism.
- 1:12:09Unknown: But, again I'm can I chime in on Larry's thing? Just general rule.
- 1:12:14Uh-huh. Tag trusts are not a tax
- 1:12:18vehicle.
- 1:12:19They're a property
- 1:12:21vehicle,
- 1:12:23and they just people try and force the square peg in the round hole,
- 1:12:28and that's why the re IRS reaction comes back. Alright. Well, we're gonna make the trust a person, and we're gonna treat you just like a person. And and that's where this, like, piercing a corporate veil almost.
- 1:12:39And that's where these little chess moves come from and what's been going on. And in the nineties, like Brent was saying, when I first started, there were people traveling all over the country charging you $2,500
- 1:12:51for trusts.
- 1:12:52They didn't really know what they're doing. There's certain things you're obligated to do if you have been a bit, you know, involved in it, and those things didn't get done. So it's just a mess.
- 1:13:03That's why we have given this trust course out and you learn it because then nobody can buffalo you.
- 1:13:12Unknown: Well, we hope yeah. You learn. It's you know, it's funny. You're right, Roger. It's important if you're gonna establish a trust, you kinda know what you're doing. Are there advantages? Oh, yeah. Can there be tax advantages? No question. Yeah. There there can be. There's ways you can do that.
- 1:13:27But you need to understand a fellow needs to understand at least the fundamentals. But here's the more important point, more important than all that.
- 1:13:35Man a man's or a woman's relationship with God himself
- 1:13:40is a
- 1:13:43beneficiary,
- 1:13:44settler relationship.
- 1:13:46In other words, God what JD was talking about, the covenant of God. You got two
- 1:13:52camps in Christianity. You got dispensationalism
- 1:13:55and covenant.
- 1:13:56Well, the thing that's bothered me all my life, and I've tried to live
- 1:14:01to try
- 1:14:03to relieve some of the problem with it, is
- 1:14:07throwing words around that nobody knows what they mean, but everybody acts like they know what they mean. Yes. And you're not gonna tell me that people talk about covenant, that they have a clue what they're talking about. Oh, the covenant of God and now they'll all know and they go on. And this is the way most of politics and most of Christianity is. I I used to call them Sunday school words. You know about a half a dozen Sunday school words. You can answer any question the teacher throws at you and it'll sound right, but nobody will have a clue what it means. If I say grace,
- 1:14:36who could really define it? Oh, there are path answers out there that they I've heard them all. They don't amount to nothing. How about trust? I mean, really, if it came right down to your eternal destiny
- 1:14:48depends upon trust,
- 1:14:50a synonym, faith. What is that? Really, what does it mean? You wouldn't find 10
- 1:14:56preachers out of a 100
- 1:14:58or maybe one that could really break it down and tell you what it means. And all of these words
- 1:15:05are how God chooses to get these points across to us. I was talking about the word amen a while ago. That fundamental
- 1:15:11verse.
- 1:15:12And Abraham
- 1:15:15trusted
- 1:15:17God and Abraham believed God.
- 1:15:20Abraham
- 1:15:21had confidence in God
- 1:15:23and it and God logged it down to him
- 1:15:26for righteousness.
- 1:15:28That's a pretty profound statement and it's a statement that
- 1:15:33dictates eternal destinies of all men without exception.
- 1:15:37Either it's there or it isn't. Well, then you ask yourself whether that Hebrew word there in the verb form, amen.
- 1:15:44Amen. What does that mean?
- 1:15:47We throw that around. We we slap that on the end of a prayer as though it's a postage stamp and then the prayer won't go anywhere unless we slap it on there.
- 1:15:56It's important that we understand what that word means,
- 1:15:59the simplicity of it. It's not complicated.
- 1:16:02It's not like it's highfalutin.
- 1:16:04It's just a earthy word
- 1:16:07and you put it in the verb form and you amen things.
- 1:16:10You know, we say, I guess we still use it that way. Somebody
- 1:16:14will say something and they'll agree with it and they'll say, amen.
- 1:16:17I agree.
- 1:16:19That's a firm worm.
- 1:16:21There's no question about that.
- 1:16:24That's what they say in the Marine Corps.
- 1:16:27They used to. Used to wear on those.
- 1:16:30I have question.
- 1:16:32Is this Paul?
- 1:16:35Oh.
- 1:16:36Unknown: Yeah, it is. And I have a question and it has to do with trust and I don't want to get too far away from what Larry said before
- 1:16:44we circle back.
- 1:16:46Let
- 1:16:47me lay out a hypothetical situation.
- 1:16:50Somebody's in a
- 1:16:53legal battle
- 1:16:55with
- 1:16:56a state or a county, a
- 1:16:59formidable
- 1:17:00adversary,
- 1:17:03And what hangs in the balance is
- 1:17:07a great deal of not only embarrassment,
- 1:17:10but a tremendous
- 1:17:11amount of money
- 1:17:13that the state or the county
- 1:17:16or the formidable adversary
- 1:17:18would be obligated
- 1:17:20to pay.
- 1:17:21Now,
- 1:17:23there is one guy,
- 1:17:26there's one, you know, it's
- 1:17:29one little mouse with
- 1:17:31his little finger extended to the eagle that's descending upon him for sure, you know, the last great act of defiance, you've seen that.
- 1:17:40So
- 1:17:42here's one guy, he's one little guy,
- 1:17:45and
- 1:17:46he's going up against
- 1:17:48despicably evil people
- 1:17:51that and
- 1:17:53his case could completely turn upside down the entire legal system
- 1:18:00of a state in recent
- 1:18:03history.
- 1:18:04Okay,
- 1:18:05we're talking up to a decade.
- 1:18:07Alright?
- 1:18:08Easily beyond or easily up to the statute of limitations.
- 1:18:13Is there a way that one person who is coming up against a behemoth
- 1:18:18and doing it solo
- 1:18:20could transfer
- 1:18:23their legal arguments
- 1:18:25and their legal person
- 1:18:28into a legal trust
- 1:18:31and that trust
- 1:18:33would have a list of people that could step in
- 1:18:37and
- 1:18:38operate that case
- 1:18:40in
- 1:18:41the
- 1:18:43not in the remembrance,
- 1:18:44but well, could be in the remembrance because a bullet is a lot cheaper than a check,
- 1:18:50but
- 1:18:52could that case be transferred to an entity where instead of just one guy going up against the monster,
- 1:19:00Goliath,
- 1:19:01there would be a constant flow of people that would step in and make sure that that case was played out to its completion.
- 1:19:10Unknown: Well, and a trust could do that, but the problem in that situation, the way I understand it is,
- 1:19:18the legal waters are turbulent a little bit or you have reason to believe they could be turbulent and you try to transfer property into another
- 1:19:27entitle it to somebody else or something else,
- 1:19:30then that's called fraudulent transfer.
- 1:19:34Fraudulent
- 1:19:34conveyance.
- 1:19:35Yeah. Fraudulent conveyance. And the courts could set it aside. And every state has a falter
- 1:19:40has a a full what they call fraudulent transfer statute.
- 1:19:45And, they're pretty much the same. And you can look at them and it figures into taxes.
- 1:19:50Now you're talking about a while ago,
- 1:19:52well, how do you
- 1:19:55does, can a trust be used against taxation?
- 1:19:58Well, can in this way.
- 1:20:00If you don't own
- 1:20:02property, the
- 1:20:04government can't take it from you.
- 1:20:06It's not it's not possible
- 1:20:09Unknown: to take something Well, this guy really this
- 1:20:11guy really doesn't have property. What he would be doing is he would be
- 1:20:16giving power of attorney over his affairs specifically
- 1:20:21with reference to the case to a legal trust that would then take over in his stead. Well, He doesn't have property.
- 1:20:30Unknown: Well, that's property. A right
- 1:20:33such as power of attorney Yeah, it is property. Is That's a property right. But no, now that you're saying power of attorney, the answer is a lot of times, yes, and I've done that.
- 1:20:43I've taken
- 1:20:45power of attorney over
- 1:20:47things and you know, power of attorney notice the word attorney as in there. That's
- 1:20:53a French word from the days of the Norman invasion.
- 1:20:57Attorney,
- 1:20:58it means agent,
- 1:21:00agency.
- 1:21:02Somebody delegates
- 1:21:03an attorney
- 1:21:05at law is somebody
- 1:21:06that you delegate authority to, which is property. That's your property, it's your authority. You delegate it to him to handle a certain matter and you put it on a piece of paper what it is. So it's a limited power of attorney
- 1:21:21to handle the legal aspect of something.
- 1:21:24But a regular power of attorney, it could be general or limited to some particular thing,
- 1:21:30same thing. And yeah, you can turn a power of attorney over to people to handle legal matters if that's what you're asking. Now,
- 1:21:38I shouldn't say I know it. I've found out, you know, the law is so it changes so much in different states. I just know I've done it before.
- 1:21:46I've had people give me a powers of attorney. What does that mean? That means they've delegated authority to me to handle a particular matter.
- 1:21:54And if they've delegated it to me, then I got it and they don't. I'm the one that takes care of it. But
- 1:22:01I
- 1:22:02am under contract. It's a contract. In other words, that means I'm obligated to take care of that property
- 1:22:08for the best interest of the principal. That's the fellow that delegated the authority to me. That's what a lawyer does. That's what a and they call them insurance agents. Same thing. That's a power of attorney. A FBI agent, that's a power of attorney.
- 1:22:24He has power delegated
- 1:22:26to him from the federal government. That's called
- 1:22:28a FBI agent. Agency,
- 1:22:31attorney, it's pretty much same thing.
- 1:22:34And we find them all over,
- 1:22:36But
- 1:22:37you can do that, you can delegate it, you can turn it over to a bunch of lawyers to handle it if you thought that was gonna go to court.
- 1:22:45Yeah, you can do all that stuff and then having the contract. And by the way, an agency like that,
- 1:22:51there's
- 1:22:52only two kind of
- 1:22:53contractual relationships
- 1:22:55in our common law tradition.
- 1:22:57That's
- 1:22:59fiduciary
- 1:23:00and arm's length. That's all there is.
- 1:23:04And every it's a law. When I say contracts, I mean the law, I call it the law of promises.
- 1:23:10What is a contract fundamentally?
- 1:23:12A common law, this is the best definition I've ever come up with.
- 1:23:16No. Well, for a contract. What's a contract?
- 1:23:20A contract, a common law
- 1:23:22consists of at least one promise
- 1:23:25that the law will enforce,
- 1:23:28period. At least one. A trust settlement,
- 1:23:32an agency
- 1:23:33is a single those relationships
- 1:23:35are single promises.
- 1:23:37A trust settlement is a single promise.
- 1:23:40And when God in the fifteenth chapter of Genesis
- 1:23:43cut a trust settlement with Abraham,
- 1:23:47it consisted of a single promise and Abraham had nothing to do with it. Matter of fact, to make the point that Abraham had nothing to do with that promise, it was unilateral as we say. It wasn't a quid pro quo.
- 1:24:00God knocked him out. He was unconscious during the transaction.
- 1:24:04Read it, Genesis chapter 15.
- 1:24:06And he performed the blood.
- 1:24:08Yeah. Use the word covenant and the word covenant is a Latin word that like me saying in English, well, that's the law of promises. That's pretty broad, real broad.
- 1:24:18Well, so is, you know, you got, of course, banal contracts,
- 1:24:22agency contracts.
- 1:24:25Unknown: Parole contracts.
- 1:24:26Unknown: Parole,
- 1:24:28all sorts of any agreement between two persons
- 1:24:31is the is a promise, an undertaking to put it into English, that the law will enforce.
- 1:24:37Well, God did that with Abraham.
- 1:24:39And Abraham
- 1:24:41by the way, Abraham wasn't a Jew.
- 1:24:43Abraham
- 1:24:44wasn't even an Israelite. He wasn't even an Israelite.
- 1:24:47He was an Assyrian,
- 1:24:49190%
- 1:24:51Assyrian.
- 1:24:52And so when it says,
- 1:24:55bless
- 1:24:56God will bless them to bless you and curse them to curse you, he's talking about an Assyrian.
- 1:25:01Well, how many nations did Abraham
- 1:25:04father?
- 1:25:05Almost more than you can count. I mean, Israel is just one of many. All the Arab nations, he's the father of all of the Arab nations.
- 1:25:13All of the the Semitic
- 1:25:15well, Abraham
- 1:25:17was a Semite.
- 1:25:18Oh, what's a Semite?
- 1:25:20That's a descendant of one of the three sons of Noah. Noah was the second father of Adam's race.
- 1:25:27He had three sons.
- 1:25:29And all of the world came out of those three men who founded three more races
- 1:25:34within Adam's race.
- 1:25:36And then
- 1:25:37within those three races, Shem, Ham and Japheth,
- 1:25:40or Japheth, Ham and Shem, or Japheth, Shem and Ham, maybe that's the way to say it. I think that's the order of
- 1:25:48age.
- 1:25:50The whole world is populated, the Bible says, with Adam's race.
- 1:25:55And
- 1:25:57that,
- 1:25:58Abraham is the father of all of that.
- 1:26:01And if you're gonna say that, well,
- 1:26:04to bless Abraham is to bless the Israelites or the Jews.
- 1:26:08Well, number one, it's not to bless the Jews because that's not even a race of men, that's a religion.
- 1:26:13Pretty much across the board, I think we can say that. People try to confound the two, there is no confounding.
- 1:26:19Judaism
- 1:26:20Unknown: is short. Roger, what's that? It's multi religions within one.
- 1:26:25Unknown: Oh, yeah. Well, even in Jesus Christ's day, we'd made mention. There were the Essene, the Sadducees Right. The Pharisees.
- 1:26:32And they're all different. And then what is Judaism? Judaism is Babylonian
- 1:26:36Gnosticism.
- 1:26:38That's all it is. All it is, well, that can get pretty complicated, but just BS.
- 1:26:42That's bottom sediment.
- 1:26:45It's just baloney. It and no matter how thin you slice it, and that's a quote.
- 1:26:49Well,
- 1:26:50go back to that fella. I was gonna say about Judaism though.
- 1:26:55This fella, Charles Lee Feinberg, now this is curious.
- 1:26:59He grew up in an orthodox family in Philadelphia.
- 1:27:03He claims, and I'd heard him tell the story, a convert to
- 1:27:08Christianity listening to the preaching of Billy Sunday on a hot summer night on the edge of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in a big tent.
- 1:27:18He got fascinated,
- 1:27:20took all he was 14 years old, took all the money he had and followed Billy Sunday with every crusade he held from Philadelphia
- 1:27:27down the East Coast, clear to Florida. Wow. Got to Florida, didn't have any money, didn't know how to get home, wrote his parents,
- 1:27:34told them what happened to him
- 1:27:36and they wouldn't talk to him, never did talk to him the rest of his life, according to him.
- 1:27:41Well, then he comes back, he goes to Philadelphia College of the Bible, goes to Dallas Seminary, becomes well known, writes lots
- 1:27:50of books.
- 1:27:51Professor of Semitics and Old Testament and Hebrew,
- 1:27:54Dallas Seminary graduate,
- 1:27:56PhD,
- 1:27:57John Hopkins, PhD, Dallas,
- 1:28:00master's degree in Ugaritic from John Hopkins and on and on, educated
- 1:28:04beyond his intelligence.
- 1:28:07And
- 1:28:08did he know a lot? Oh, he knew a lot. But
- 1:28:12and by the way, oddly, and I'd heard him,
- 1:28:16he was a great pulpeteer.
- 1:28:18You wouldn't know it looking at him or listening to him talk. When he got up into the pulpit,
- 1:28:23he could keep
- 1:28:25an audience's attention
- 1:28:28with
- 1:28:29stories,
- 1:28:30information, and be interesting
- 1:28:32and tell you things about the Old Testament you never thought of before.
- 1:28:36That's all true.
- 1:28:37But then turn around
- 1:28:39and deny that the law of God has any meaning in a Christian man's life. Of course, my question now when I got older, a guy like him, I'd say, why are you teaching Hebrew?
- 1:28:49Why do you teach the Old Testament if the Old Testament doesn't matter? His foremost protege,
- 1:28:55Charles Lee Feinberg's
- 1:28:57foremost protege
- 1:28:59was John MacArthur.
- 1:29:01John MacArthur's
- 1:29:03father, Jack,
- 1:29:05was
- 1:29:07Tidern a tick with Charles Lee Heinfeinberg.
- 1:29:11John MacArthur's grandfather wrote a book called
- 1:29:15God's Not Through With the Jew.
- 1:29:17God's Not Through With the Jew,
- 1:29:19A dispensational presentation,
- 1:29:21Zionistic.
- 1:29:23Well,
- 1:29:24Jack was that way. Jack MacArthur was the man
- 1:29:28he they were Canadians originally. And Jack MacArthur,
- 1:29:32his grandpa,
- 1:29:33was pastor
- 1:29:36to Anne of Green Gables and up what in New
- 1:29:41they call
- 1:29:42Newfoundland.
- 1:29:46She was poet laureate of Canada.
- 1:29:50And then they came west and he wrote that book,
- 1:29:55God is not through with the Jew.
- 1:29:57And then they came down to Southern California and Jack was out at Eagle Rock,
- 1:30:01not far from Glendale.
- 1:30:04And
- 1:30:06then
- 1:30:07in Burbank,
- 1:30:09in a pretty good sized church where he was pastor and
- 1:30:13Roy Rogers and Dale Evans got to go into church there.
- 1:30:17And
- 1:30:18they credit
- 1:30:20Jack MacArthur to their conversion. They became
- 1:30:24pretty strong evangelicals.
- 1:30:25I'm talking about
- 1:30:26Roy Rogers and Dale.
- 1:30:29But then the
- 1:30:31First
- 1:30:32Presbyterian Church of Hollywood,
- 1:30:35very famous,
- 1:30:37called people there call it
- 1:30:39Hollywood Press, First Presbyterian Church of Hollywood.
- 1:30:43They founded
- 1:30:44a church
- 1:30:46out there in the valley called the Grace Community Church of the Valley
- 1:30:50that was founded by the First
- 1:30:53Presbyterian Church of Hollywood.
- 1:30:55And that's where John MacArthur
- 1:30:57became pastor.
- 1:31:00And John
- 1:31:01was protege of
- 1:31:03of a matter of fact, John
- 1:31:06John was going to school. His father sent him to school at Bob Jones.
- 1:31:12And, he was in the gospel quartet and got into an awful traffic accident with
- 1:31:18the other guy in the quartet was,
- 1:31:21Dave Hawking.
- 1:31:23Dave Hawking was, his father worked an oil field there in Long Beach, but his father was Jewish.
- 1:31:29Not his mother, his father.
- 1:31:33So he was a hardcore dispensationalist,
- 1:31:35and
- 1:31:36him and John were at
- 1:31:38Bob Jones. Well, he went skidding down the highway on his back, took his hide off, wound
- 1:31:44up in the hospital for a few months.
- 1:31:47And he says that's when he had his
- 1:31:50that's when he entered the ministry, was when that in that car wreck.
- 1:31:55That's not funny. She's lucky he's alive.
- 1:31:58Well, then he came back out and Jack MacArthur, his father, took him and said, look, I got this boy here. He handed him over to Charles Lee Feinberg and said, can you do something with him?
- 1:32:08Well, Charles Lee Feinberg took him under his wing.
- 1:32:12And John MacArthur, of course, well known throughout the world,
- 1:32:16arguably the best
- 1:32:18known expositor of the Bible in our times. He's gone now. He died last year.
- 1:32:23But here's the story John MacArthur told later. He was
- 1:32:28always promoting Charles Lee Feinberg. How smart he was, how
- 1:32:34how Judaism
- 1:32:36is such an important part of
- 1:32:39our Christianity
- 1:32:40and how God's not through with the Jew. That was John MacArthur.
- 1:32:44John MacArthur never exposited the Old Testament.
- 1:32:48He spent his entire
- 1:32:50calling
- 1:32:52teaching the New Testament.
- 1:32:54And he taught through the whole thing, but he never taught the Old Testament. Why?
- 1:32:59Well, because he was John MacArthur's hardcore dispensationalist.
- 1:33:04The law of God doesn't matter. It's not good for a standard. Did you know, Roger,
- 1:33:08I need to stop camp here just a minute and say, there is no such thing as salvation by grace through faith
- 1:33:16without the works of the law,
- 1:33:19unless the law is there
- 1:33:21to bring guilt.
- 1:33:22If the law never brings guilt to you because you're a lawbreaker,
- 1:33:27God God will never get you flat on your face
- 1:33:30and he'll never save you
- 1:33:32unless you, by the law of God, understand
- 1:33:35that you are a sinner. And by the way, sin, according to the Bible, the Bible says sin is
- 1:33:41transgression of God's law.
- 1:33:44Well, it just says transgression of the law, but talking about God's law.
- 1:33:49And that's what we need salvation from. We're lawbreakers.
- 1:33:52We've offended a holy God.
- 1:33:55That's why the preaching of the law is so important to Christianity. That's why the Puritans
- 1:34:00focused on the law of God. Why? So that the elect of God would be convicted of their sin
- 1:34:06and that they would turn. That's what God wants us to do. That's called conversion, convert, turn. Turn from
- 1:34:14your sin, your law breaking and become a law keeper. Well, how are you gonna keep the law if you don't know what it is? If nobody's teaching it to you? And the answer is you don't.
- 1:34:24Without the law of God, God's
- 1:34:26MO is he uses his law
- 1:34:29to convict you of your law breaking so that you will turn to the only remedy that he provides, which is his son.
- 1:34:38And then after that happens and the new birth occurs, then the law becomes your
- 1:34:43passion.
- 1:34:45It's what you want.
- 1:34:47And then to have a seminary
- 1:34:49that would focus on telling people
- 1:34:52that you don't need the law of God anymore, you're
- 1:34:55under grace now.
- 1:34:57That's Old Testament stuff. That was in that old
- 1:35:00dispensation.
- 1:35:01We now have like Hebrews in the New Testament says, we got the new covenant now.
- 1:35:07It's elusive, I agree. Because there is a such thing. The Bible talks about the old and the new covenant. Well, that's the old and the new trust settlement that has to do with property
- 1:35:16and you are the chosen beneficiary
- 1:35:18if you're a Christian.
- 1:35:20Just like in trust law and our common law tradition,
- 1:35:24the settler chooses his beneficiaries.
- 1:35:28They don't choose to be beneficiaries.
- 1:35:30He chooses them to be beneficiaries.
- 1:35:32I've set up a lot of trust and I tell people, they come to me,
- 1:35:36you wanna trust? Okay. First thing you gotta decide is who are gonna be the beneficiaries.
- 1:35:41I mean, I get to decide, oh, yeah, you can have anybody you want, you know, just you gotta choose though.
- 1:35:47And you're the settler, you're the one that owns the property
- 1:35:50and you're the one that's setting this thing up.
- 1:35:52You choose. Well, God set up a trust settlement.
- 1:35:55The entrusted property, there has to be entrusted property to for a trust to exist, the entrusted property is all the land of this earth. By the way, see dispensationalism
- 1:36:05says this, the only land that counts is the land of Israel.
- 1:36:09That's all that counts.
- 1:36:11America doesn't count.
- 1:36:14This land over here, as beautiful as it is, God doesn't care about it. He cares about that rattlesnake pit over there on the other side of the world that's filled with
- 1:36:22that place doesn't hold a candle to what we got for productivity.
- 1:36:26No. What productivity do they have?
- 1:36:28Not very much. Not very much. Their country is very small, doesn't have many people, and it's dangerous to live there.
- 1:36:36That country
- 1:36:38is not God's
- 1:36:39chosen land.
- 1:36:41It was God's chosen land for a purpose of those people.
- 1:36:44But the Bible says that God has divided
- 1:36:47all the land of this place we call Earth up among the tribe and the tongues
- 1:36:51and the nations.
- 1:36:52And he has given us a responsibility
- 1:36:54not to pollute it, to make it productive for his glory and our benefit, our enjoyment. We are beneficiaries,
- 1:37:01friends. It is a trust settlement.
- 1:37:04And to
- 1:37:05follow dispensationalism,
- 1:37:07Zionism,
- 1:37:09is to deny
- 1:37:11the arrangement that God has called his relationship with you.
- 1:37:16He has given you a land and you are to be loyal to this land. To be a beneficiary
- 1:37:23is to be loyal to the entrusted
- 1:37:26property.
- 1:37:27I'm
- 1:37:28a lawyer.
- 1:37:29Somebody says to me, I'm entrusting this case to you. I'm entrusting other people, entrust
- 1:37:35trusteeships to me. I'm going through a deal now.
- 1:37:38Or the only thing that matters is the trusteeship has been entrusted to me. Am I going to be loyal?
- 1:37:45How far do I go? I said there's only two kinds of relationships in our common law tradition because there's and there's only two kinds of relationships that God talks about in the Bible,
- 1:37:55fiduciary
- 1:37:56and non fiduciary.
- 1:37:59What's the difference?
- 1:38:01A non fiduciary
- 1:38:02relationship,
- 1:38:03I look out for myself.
- 1:38:06I'll let you look out, you look out for you. I'm gonna buy your
- 1:38:10house. You look out for yourself. I'll look out for me.
- 1:38:14And if you don't look out for yourself, caveat
- 1:38:17emptor,
- 1:38:18buyer beware.
- 1:38:20That's called an arm's length relationship.
- 1:38:23Most all contracts are that way, two parties or more, but two at least.
- 1:38:28Quid pro quo, I look out for my business, you look out for yours.
- 1:38:33But fiduciary relationships,
- 1:38:35that's different. In a fiduciary relationship,
- 1:38:40I look out for the other fellow. I don't look out for me. And if I look out for my own business, my own benefit,
- 1:38:46I've broken the law.
- 1:38:47No, that's an agency relationship and a trust relationship.
- 1:38:52Attorney is that way.
- 1:38:54Agency, power of attorney is that way.
- 1:38:57But the highest of those two
- 1:39:00is the trustee relationship.
- 1:39:02The trustee's
- 1:39:03relationship
- 1:39:05is the highest duty known in our common law tradition. It's so high
- 1:39:10that to breach it
- 1:39:13is a criminal liability in some cases.
- 1:39:16And I know I was just I was talking to a trust lawyer. Guys made lots of money entrusting land
- 1:39:23or helping farmers entrust land to their children. That's his expertise.
- 1:39:27Back home, you see.
- 1:39:29And I said to him, being a trustee, he said, trust I don't know why anybody want to be a trustee. He said, that's a pain in the neck. I said, that's not a pain in the neck, it's dangerous.
- 1:39:39He said, oh no, no, I've never had any problem. I said, well, go talk to Judge Kokanar up there in Clark County. He went to state prison. Judge,
- 1:39:47trustee for if you go to a judge, you think he'd make a good trustee, you know, with his family all his life.
- 1:39:53He loaned some money, trust money to his brother. I knew his brother used to put up pay for him.
- 1:39:59They had a thoroughbred farm out there, training horses and all that.
- 1:40:04He entrusted or loaned money on good interest.
- 1:40:08Well, seems innocuous. Is it legal? Yeah.
- 1:40:11But at the same time, probably not smart.
- 1:40:14He went to state prison
- 1:40:16for six months. I knew another lawyer down there, Franklin,
- 1:40:21down there along the Wabash River near Mount Carmel.
- 1:40:25He was made trustee. People say, and I've said this, he got a law license, he'll make a trust. He wants to protect his law license, he won't screw up.
- 1:40:33Well, he didn't really screw up, but I don't know why. I never found out he had this money entrusted to him. He took $2,000
- 1:40:40out of the trust fund,
- 1:40:42did something with it, put it back within forty eight hours with a year's worth of interest.
- 1:40:48Local county prosecutor found out about it. He lost his law license and went to jail for two Oh, darn.
- 1:40:56The trustee's duty is high.
- 1:40:58Fiduciary,
- 1:40:59that's why it says of Jesus Christ, he is entrusted.
- 1:41:03The Godhead and they all agreed they would entrust him with the redemption
- 1:41:07of his chosen people. That's us,
- 1:41:10individually.
- 1:41:12And the Old Testament says that
- 1:41:14he kept that
- 1:41:16undertaking,
- 1:41:18his trustee's duty,
- 1:41:20even to his own hurt.
- 1:41:23Well, how much hurt was
- 1:41:25put on him?
- 1:41:27They murdered him and he gave himself up for murder to keep
- 1:41:31his trusteeship
- 1:41:33to do his duty.
- 1:41:35And what was it all about?
- 1:41:37So that he could read not he could, he already had in the Old Testament, Abraham,
- 1:41:42Jesus Christ is a descendant of Abraham.
- 1:41:45And the whole genealogical record
- 1:41:47is right there in the book of Luke.
- 1:41:50Three sections of 14 generations each.
- 1:41:53And Jesus Christ
- 1:41:55and Matthew two, by the way.
- 1:41:58Jesus Christ, when Abraham says, and he, amen, God,
- 1:42:02he trusted. Amen. I agree. I trust. I agree with what God said.
- 1:42:06God counted it to him for righteousness
- 1:42:09and he was trusting in the coming Messiah,
- 1:42:12one of his own descendants.
- 1:42:16He looked forward
- 1:42:17in trust to what the Bible said.
- 1:42:19Today,
- 1:42:20we take what the Bible said, the testimony of the evangelist and all the Bible, and we look back to the same thing and we trust the evidence to be good.
- 1:42:29And the trust indenture
- 1:42:30documents, the Bible itself,
- 1:42:32that collection of writs
- 1:42:34are trustworthy.
- 1:42:36As evidence of the entrustment,
- 1:42:39we look back,
- 1:42:41but the trustee, the ultimate trustee, Jesus Christ,
- 1:42:46it fulfills his duty
- 1:42:48even to the point of
- 1:42:50being beat half to death
- 1:42:53and then nailed to a post and left to die.
- 1:42:56And by doing so, he paid the penalty,
- 1:43:00the capital penalty for my law breaking.
- 1:43:03And by doing that,
- 1:43:05by doing that, he now has given me a new heart, a new mind and I want
- 1:43:10to do his law. It's his law.
- 1:43:12Yep. And he's written it down the book, friends. Every page, every verse, every paracope,
- 1:43:18every word, every sentence is calculated to let you know
- 1:43:23better
- 1:43:25what God wants,
- 1:43:27the will of the sovereign.
- 1:43:30And if he's your father and you're born from above,
- 1:43:33he's given you a new heart and new mind. You want you want to please him.
- 1:43:38You're not trying to earn your salvation. It's just what you do. You know, I've noticed, Roger, I give personal testimony.
- 1:43:45I am shocked
- 1:43:47at what I won't do. I mean, I'm really
- 1:43:51surprised
- 1:43:52when I look back over the past thirty five years or forty years,
- 1:43:56opportunities
- 1:43:57I've had to do things
- 1:43:59and I didn't do them.
- 1:44:02And it surprises me even in other words,
- 1:44:05God had built into me, it gives me confidence to know
- 1:44:08that I really do wanna keep his law and there's something in me that I won't do some things.
- 1:44:14What a good feeling, Roger. Yeah. Not
- 1:44:17And we're all if you're born of God,
- 1:44:20it's what God does through you like that, that he's given you a new heart, a new mind, or you still got
- 1:44:27these old desires in your flesh and your members as the Bible says, and they're still talking to you.
- 1:44:33But the spirit of God that lives in every molecule,
- 1:44:36every molecule of your organs and your body
- 1:44:41has beaten that old flesh down. And then the Bible says he'll make you beat it down. Paul the Apostle says,
- 1:44:47I beat myself
- 1:44:49black and blue. That's exactly what it says. He uses the word
- 1:44:55from the boxers of the Greek world. You know, the Greek boxers were a very famous people
- 1:45:01and
- 1:45:03they had a word for getting punched into the eye and giving yourself a shiner or getting a shiner from somebody.
- 1:45:08And Paul says, I give myself shiners. I punch myself in the face to try to discipline myself. That's how hard I am. Well, he's using the analogy.
- 1:45:18And that's what the spirit of God will drive us to do.
- 1:45:22And God, people say, man, yeah, they don't like me. They don't like the way I talk. They don't like my attitude, whatever they don't like about me. And I say to them, listen,
- 1:45:32can you imagine how much worse it would be
- 1:45:35if I hadn't been churched a little bit? Church. Paught a
- 1:45:41little bit about the Bible. It'd be a lot worse. I'll be happy that God's moving me in the right direction. I'm trying.
- 1:45:48I'm trying to go along with him and go along with the program as he takes me to the woodshed,
- 1:45:53Operation
- 1:45:54Woodshed,
- 1:45:56applying the board of education to the seat of knowledge,
- 1:46:00as we say. I remember when I'd grown up, we'd go to church down there at White Oak, you know, we had a bunch of At that time, there were a lot of young families there and I was related to some of them, if not by marriage, by
- 1:46:12blood. But, you know, we all knew if during the church service,
- 1:46:15one of the fathers would stand up
- 1:46:18in front of everybody, the whole church, there might've been 50 people there at the most, know, but that was a whole, that was a lot of people.
- 1:46:25And embarrass some little kid, snap the fingers and say, come with me. Yeah. And all of us little kids knew where they were going. They were going out behind the outhouse,
- 1:46:33and that's where it was traditional. I don't know why, but they'd take you out behind the outhouse and that's where they'd fan your bottom.
- 1:46:40Unknown: And then My parents my parents had a better way. What is it? They both sang in the choir, and they could watch me wherever I was. That's
- 1:46:51Unknown: pretty good, Roger. Maybe that's why they did it. Just keep an eye on you. Yeah. Well,
- 1:46:56but that's what God does. He
- 1:46:59and if you didn't get enough of that when you were growing up, he'll give you plenty if you become a Christian. But here's the beautiful thing about it.
- 1:47:06The beautiful thing about it. I had a cousin
- 1:47:09that I love to go to his house because when I go over there, spend the night or whatever we do, fiddle around, his parents didn't have any bedtime. We'd stay up till two I remember staying up with my my cousins, boys and girls, 02:00 in the morning
- 1:47:23outside
- 1:47:24the house in a hot summer evening playing Mother May I. You remember Mother May I? Yeah. Yeah.
- 1:47:30Well, we we didn't have to go to bed.
- 1:47:33And we got and we grew up and I we got to talking one time and I was talking about what dad did to David and I once when we were supposed to be working. He'd grab up anything handy and he'd wear us out, you know, if he thought it was appropriate.
- 1:47:46He
- 1:47:47and he's yeah. Go ahead.
- 1:47:49Unknown: I've had a memory flashing back to me lately. I didn't Yeah. Thought about talking about it on the program. Never thought about it till just now.
- 1:47:58Yeah.
- 1:48:00Hot summer nights, how about catching,
- 1:48:02lightning bugs, putting them in a glass jar? Oh, yeah. Go snipe hunting, catch lightning bow. Yeah. We Well, I know about that, but I know one thing we did that I look back on and just say, you wanna know how stupid a kid I was?
- 1:48:16How Roger. Roger. How stupid were you? Well, I'm gonna tell you. It's in Florida now, summer. That big thing is mosquitoes,
- 1:48:24and the DDT truck would come down the street spraying that DDT,
- 1:48:30and we would get out and run behind it.
- 1:48:33Unknown: Yeah. Yeah. I I can picture that. I I would have done the same thing probably. Nobody knew the difference at that time though. Well, nobody's stopping us. Yeah. No. Your parents couldn't even told you the difference.
- 1:48:45I know what you're saying. We used to farm. My job was to help dad fill the buckets to fill the boxes on the planter. And then they came out with herbicide in a granular form. And then they
- 1:48:56buy these boxes, little boxes, you'd mount them on behind the seed box
- 1:49:01and they drop herbicide
- 1:49:03in a granule form. We'd take 50 pound bags of it, dump it over in that box. And then we'd take our hand and level it out and have this stuff all over us. Yeah,
- 1:49:12Unknown: didn't know any better, you know? Numb, dummy. Yeah. I wanted to also add something about the maybe if we could circle back to your buddy, JD Hall,
- 1:49:22who, again, I would please bring get him on the show if you can reach out to him. I was super impressed with the guy.
- 1:49:30One thing he really answered a question, though, was using the Scofield Bible
- 1:49:36and the way that that pastors, they couldn't all go to seminaries and stuff.
- 1:49:41And they'd go home, and they use those notes
- 1:49:45to formulate
- 1:49:46Unknown: serve sermons as doing background research. Yes. He did. And that's true. And that's an important point. You know, the first study bible in the English speaking world was the Geneva bible. Well, that's what I wanted to bring up. Didn't the Geneva Bible have margin notes too?
- 1:50:03Yeah. And that was the first one. And it was the first one printed in a they called it quarto size
- 1:50:08Yes. That people could carry to church. You know, we go to church now and the preacher will say, please open your Bibles up. That never happened before the Geneva Bible. The Geneva Bible brought a culture to England when
- 1:50:21the Geneva Bible was very popular and
- 1:50:23that was in the Puritan tradition. People started carrying their Bibles to church and they could look at the Bible and see if what the preacher was saying was true. Like it says in the book of Acts
- 1:50:33of the
- 1:50:35Remember that verse that says that they searched the Bible to see if those things that were preached were so? Well, we got to doing that in English speaking world and people say, oh, but we got all these different sects and denominations
- 1:50:47and yeah, no kidding.
- 1:50:50And it's created a powerful culture.
- 1:50:52We all can take our Bibles now and we'll decide for ourselves.
- 1:50:56Forget the theologians.
- 1:50:57When I was growing up, if people had a seminary
- 1:51:00education or a Bible college education,
- 1:51:03they didn't let them preach where I went to church. The only people that allowed to preach were just the folk that lived around there that had no education.
- 1:51:10People did not trust education. It's still that way to some degree around there. But if yeah. So if you had a you didn't have a library if you're a preacher, what did you have? You just had the Bible. And you come out in 1909,
- 1:51:24they came out with that. Now, the Geneva Bible had good notes in it. Matter of fact, you've heard me say this, King James the first hated the Geneva Bible because
- 1:51:33the notes
- 1:51:34mitigated against kingly and emperor power,
- 1:51:37the power of the government.
- 1:51:39And so the King James Bible, he wanted that Bible translated into
- 1:51:43English so that he could promote it using government money, which he did. It took about fifty years, but it finally overcame popularity
- 1:51:51of the Geneva Bible. You know, the Puritans and the Pilgrims, when they came to America, they didn't bring the they had the King James. They didn't bring it. They didn't want it. They wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. They hated it. I mean, hated it because
- 1:52:05they knew that it had
- 1:52:07innuendos
- 1:52:08in it, and it does. It even adds words in some places to promote government power.
- 1:52:15And I can show you exactly where it is. Well, coming back to
- 1:52:19the Geneva Bible, then the Schofield reference Bible came out in nineteen o nine and C. I. Schofield,
- 1:52:26and J. D. Hall said the guy was a scoundrel.
- 1:52:29Well, here's what it's funny thing about C. I. He was a funny guy. He did abandon his family. He did get to drinking and couldn't He was a drunk.
- 1:52:38Yeah. And oddly,
- 1:52:40guy had never been to law school. Don't think he ever went to college. He had none of that stuff. Somehow he gets appointed US attorney for Kansas.
- 1:52:50Don't think I he did mean, he get in these high positions.
- 1:52:53And then the next thing you know,
- 1:52:55and there was a society back in
- 1:52:58one of those
- 1:53:00East Coast towns. The Lotus
- 1:53:02Club. Yeah. Yeah. The Lotus Club. All them intellectual belong to it. How does a guy like that, who's not an intellectual,
- 1:53:10how does he get into the Lotus Club? I have no idea. He got in.
- 1:53:14Unknown: Ubermeyer.
- 1:53:14They they picked him up, and Ubermeyer was his groomer. Now now, Britt, yeah, I've I'm you may not know this.
- 1:53:22When my wife was in the last phases of of dying with cancer, we had went up to Tennessee
- 1:53:28around Knoxville, Bristol,
- 1:53:30and, because these folks of good Patriot family had a machine supposed to be able to help her. So we were up there, spent about a week doing treatments and stuff. Well, the wife
- 1:53:40well, that's pretty close to to,
- 1:53:42Asheville, not too far. Uh-huh. And the
- 1:53:45the the wife of the family knew mister
- 1:53:48I think it's Cranfield.
- 1:53:51Yeah. He's the guy that's writ has written the only book ever on Schofield,
- 1:53:57and we got to go up there and have lunch with him. He had a gentleman that lived with his daughter,
- 1:54:02elderly,
- 1:54:03but came out, was thrilled, had a wonderful lunch, and that's where I know some of this background is from that book and from spending personal time with that guy.
- 1:54:13Unknown: Well, see, that's that's important
- 1:54:17information
- 1:54:18and you're talking about the Lotus Club.
- 1:54:20CIA Schofield was
- 1:54:22joined at the hip with Louis Louis Perry Schaefer.
- 1:54:26Well, Louis Perry Schaefer is the founder of Dallas Seminary.
- 1:54:29Oh. And on and on it goes. And then
- 1:54:33Charles Lee Feinberg, I mentioned a while ago, he was on the editorial board of the revision of the Schofield Bible, which came out in, I think, 'sixty four, 1960 And
- 1:54:44on and on it goes, all these connections, dispensationalism
- 1:54:49was a movement in America that caught up the most wonderful people. For example, we talked about there's covenant theology and there's dispensational.
- 1:54:58Covenant in its various forms, which again, it's a catchall word, but that was what all of Christendom believed.
- 1:55:05And the Presbyterians were at the forefront became at the forefront, the Puritans passed from existence.
- 1:55:13Passed from existence and the Presbyterians,
- 1:55:16which were caught up with the Puritans and fighting the crown,
- 1:55:20they were both reformed, both were
- 1:55:22Calvinistic to the biblical degree,
- 1:55:25and the Presbyterians took over.
- 1:55:28Know, I said this recently and somebody
- 1:55:30tried to disagree with me and I found out, well, it's not true. I thought maybe it was. More presidents of The United States have been Presbyterians than any other sect.
- 1:55:40And they said, no, that's not true. And I found out why he thought that wasn't true. And I found out it was because when you go to the internet,
- 1:55:46for some reason, for some reason, it omits
- 1:55:49Andy Jackson and Abe Lincoln.
- 1:55:52Because Andy Jackson, they're both Presbyterians,
- 1:55:54by the way, but both of them never talked about it and wouldn't proclaim it.
- 1:56:00But I've been to the church where Abe Lincoln went to church in Springfield, Illinois. It's a Presbyterian church. It's still right near downtown.
- 1:56:08Andy Jackson was raised Presbyterian
- 1:56:11simply because he was Scotch Irish.
- 1:56:14And then the Presbyterians
- 1:56:16were the dominant force in Middle America because of the immigration of the Scotch Irish.
- 1:56:22And of course, the Cane Ridge revival became the cultural
- 1:56:27impetus for everything in the Ohio Valley of Christianity and then moving into Missouri and Kansas and Oklahoma and Texas and
- 1:56:35just a lot to it without calling a Presbyterian.
- 1:56:38But
- 1:56:41Presbyterianism
- 1:56:42became infiltrated
- 1:56:43by dispensationalism.
- 1:56:45I was talking about Charles Lee Feinberg, taught at Biola, the founder of Biola,
- 1:56:50were the Stewart brothers, Lyman Stewart,
- 1:56:53who was
- 1:56:54Presbyterian
- 1:56:56and he was concerned. He
- 1:56:58had oil out in Long Beach, California. The whole
- 1:57:01thing came out of oil and there was so much oil out there and he had a lot of money and he's the one that funded
- 1:57:08the building of,
- 1:57:11well, just so many things out there, but the BIOLA, the Biblical Institute of Los Angeles, that was Lyman Stewart,
- 1:57:171909.
- 1:57:19But
- 1:57:21immediately
- 1:57:22after that happened,
- 1:57:24Moody Bible Institute,
- 1:57:26Biola, Biblical Institute in Los Angeles, they were sister schools.
- 1:57:30And
- 1:57:31then the Presbyterians coming out of Princeton, including Francis Schaeffer
- 1:57:36and D James Kennedy,
- 1:57:39Presbyterian,
- 1:57:40they all became to varying degree a barn house out of Philadelphia, they became Zionists,
- 1:57:46a dispensationalist, I should say. They were Calvinistic
- 1:57:50dispensationalist.
- 1:57:52So it started creeping in that way. I guess we're done.
- 1:57:55Unknown: We're right at the tail end. That's for sure. And I'm sorry. This one is days where you wish we had more time, you know, in the air. We could talk about these things.
- 1:58:04I'm thrilled
- 1:58:05to know that you and mister Hall know each other. I was so impressed with that interview with Tucker
- 1:58:12who will probably end up rewatching it maybe over the weekend here.
- 1:58:17But, as always, Brent, well, we're glad to have you back.
- 1:58:21K? Missed you last week. Glad to have you back, especially right now when these things are breaking.

- 1:58:30situation
- 1:58:31with Israel and the political situation of them getting exposed
- 1:58:36by the day.
- 1:58:37And I was commenting yesterday on your definition of
- 1:58:41of victory is confusion
- 1:58:43in the enemy's camp.
- 1:58:45I bet they're just rampant with confusion right now. Yeah. A lot of lot of things
- 1:58:51coming at them from a lot of different directions.

- 2:01:59funny historical stories,
- 2:02:02go to YouTube and look up the fat electrician.
- 2:02:08Unknown: Oh, the fat,
- 2:02:10f a t,
- 2:02:11electrician? Yep.
- 2:02:13Unknown: Yep.
- 2:02:15Unknown: Okay. I'll try and remember to do it, Rick.
- 2:02:18Unknown: Yeah. I just I've been watching him, and he's got some great stories. Lot of World War two army personnel story about people and stuff like that. And he told me about the nuclear testing that was going on in the fifties.
- 2:02:32It's highly entertaining, but he's he's got his facts straight. It's really good.
- 2:02:36Unknown: Have you have have you stumbled on the history guy yet in that area?
- 2:02:42Unknown: Yeah. But the federal electrician is highly entertaining.
- 2:02:47That's you know? Yeah.
- 2:02:48Unknown: Yeah. Yeah.
- 2:02:50Well, I I might. I'm sure I would. I do like some of the funny ones.
- 2:02:54That that history guy had a story on about
- 2:02:58something happened over in England where these guys that were off that were military
- 2:03:03impersonated
- 2:03:04a foreign nation
- 2:03:06and boarded a ship and got them to do a whole dinner,
- 2:03:09and and it was just freaking hilarious.
- 2:03:12Okay? And then the stunt they pulled on the on the British Navy, this particular ship, and, boy, the admiral, when he found out was pissed.
- 2:03:23Okay. It's a funny story.
- 2:03:26Anyway
- 2:03:27Alright. Thank you, Rick. The fat electrician.
- 2:03:30I'll try and remember.
- 2:03:31Unknown: Yeah. The one other one, I just watched one he did on Waffle House in the beginning. He's a Waffle House. Did you know that their FEMA has a Waffle House Index?
- 2:03:42Unknown: No.
- 2:03:44Unknown: It's how they measure the severity of natural disasters when whether or not the Waffle House is open and running.
- 2:03:51Unknown: Is that right? Oh, I heard a funny metric the other day. There's another guy that's got a metric on whether we're, like, going to war or not
- 2:03:59by how many pizzas
- 2:04:02are ordered by all the pizza places that surround the Pentagon.
- 2:04:07And if there's a whole bunch of pizzas ordered, they know they're doing late night war planning or weekend war planning. Working overtime. Yeah.
- 2:04:15Yeah. Interesting.
- 2:04:17Okay. Anybody else for the Raj?
- 2:04:20I thought I heard a female there.
- 2:04:25Roger? Female.
- 2:04:26Well, there's one.
- 2:04:28There's two. Hi, Roger. Yes, gals. Your
- 2:04:32Unknown: could also be the ordering of,
- 2:04:34little boys or little girls depending on whether there's sausage or cheese on them.
- 2:04:41Unknown: Okay. I don't know about that. He was talking about
- 2:04:44okay. Whatever.
- 2:04:45Is there anybody else?
- 2:04:48Was that one gal or two gals?
- 2:04:51Is that Julie or Robbie? Were you there or what?
- 2:04:55Okay. I thought I heard two distinct female voices. Yes, Robbie.
- 2:05:02Unknown: It's me, Julie. You're confusing me with Robbie.
- 2:05:06Unknown: Well, you sound similar. That's why I said I thought I heard two of you.
- 2:05:11Okay. Well, I don't know if Comet Pizza is in the neighborhood of the Pentagon. I just don't know those things because I'm not a DC guy like you are. It is. Uh-huh. It's very close by. It's on Connecticut. Well, hey. You know, there's all kinds of Israeli
- 2:05:26people in the Pentagon. It could've been them ordering those pizzas.
- 2:05:32Unknown: Never know. I've been there before, by the way.
- 2:05:35Unknown: Uh-huh. Okay.
- 2:05:38Well, Tucker used to carry his kids in there.
