Upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life. 21:41.680 --> 21:46.920 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed. 21:46.920 --> 21:50.400 It shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. 21:51.400 --> 21:56.400 Under the woman, he said, I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception. 21:56.400 --> 22:03.900 In sorrow thou shalt bring forth children, and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee. 22:03.900 --> 22:08.200 And unto Adam, he said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, 22:08.200 --> 22:15.200 and hast eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee, saying thou shalt not eat of it, curse it as the ground for thy sake. 22:15.200 --> 22:18.400 In sorrow thou shalt eat of it all the days of thy life. 22:19.000 --> 22:23.720 Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee, and thou shalt eat the herb of the field. 22:23.720 --> 22:28.280 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground. 22:28.280 --> 22:33.560 For out of it was thou taken, for dust thou art, and under dust shalt thou return." 22:33.560 --> 22:38.800 And Adam called his wife's name Eve, because she was the mother of all living. 22:38.800 --> 22:45.000 Unto Adam also and to his wife did the Lord God make coats of skins and clothe them. 22:45.600 --> 22:51.280 And the Lord God said, Behold, the man has become as one of us to know good and evil. 22:51.280 --> 22:57.120 And now, lest he put forth his hand and take also of the tree of life and eat and live forever. 22:57.840 --> 23:03.760 Therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden to till the ground from whence he was taken. 23:04.700 --> 23:13.700 So he drove out the man and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden cherubims and a flaming sword which turned every way to keep the way of the tree of life. 23:13.700 --> 23:19.700 Let us pray. Dear Heavenly Father, I want to thank you for this day. I want to thank you for the souls that were saved out today. 23:19.700 --> 23:24.700 I pray that you would please bless the upcoming Barbados trip. Please give an open door to all that go. 23:24.700 --> 23:29.700 And I pray that you would fill Pastor Shelley with your Holy Spirit, help him to preach boldly in Jesus name. Amen. 23:30.700 --> 23:36.940 Amen the title my sermon this evening is pushovers and really if you want to have a more elaborate title 23:36.940 --> 23:38.940 Just be men who will not say no 23:39.040 --> 23:45.220 Men will not say no and unfortunately we see this as kind of being a an example at the beginning of Adam 23:45.840 --> 23:49.500 Harkening under the voice of his wife look again at verse 17 the Bible says an unto Adam 23:49.500 --> 23:56.580 He said because thou's hearkened under the voice of thy wife and has eaten of the tree of which I commanded thee 23:56.860 --> 23:58.700 saying thou shalt not eat 23:58.700 --> 24:04.980 it, cursed is the ground for thy sake. In sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of 24:04.980 --> 24:10.300 thy life. Thorns also and thistles shall it bring forth to thee, and thou shalt eat the 24:10.300 --> 24:15.900 herb of the field. In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread till thou return into 24:15.900 --> 24:20.620 the ground, for out of it was thou taken, for dust thou art, and in the dust shalt thou 24:20.620 --> 24:26.580 return." So according to the Bible, Adam was very clearly instructed by God not to eat 24:26.580 --> 24:26.700 It's not that you can't just make the best of it. 24:28.100 --> 24:26.700 It's that you can't just say, 24:28.940 --> 24:26.700 we're going to do it. 24:29.760 --> 24:26.700 It's that you can't just say, 24:30.600 --> 24:26.700 we're going to do it. 24:31.440 --> 24:26.700 It's that you can't just say, 24:32.280 --> 24:26.700 we're going to do it. 24:33.100 --> 24:26.700 It's that you can't just say, 24:33.940 --> 24:26.700 we're going to do it. 24:34.760 --> 24:26.700 It's that you can't just say, 24:35.600 --> 24:26.700 we're going to do it. 24:36.420 --> 24:26.700 It's that you can't just say, 24:37.260 --> 24:26.700 we're going to do it. 24:38.080 --> 24:26.700 It's that you can't just say, 24:38.920 --> 24:26.700 we're going to do it. 24:39.740 --> 24:26.700 It's that you can't just say, 24:40.580 --> 24:26.700 we're going to do it. 24:41.400 --> 24:26.700 It's that you can't just say, 24:42.220 --> 24:26.700 we're going to do it. 24:43.040 --> 24:26.700 It's that you can't just say, 24:43.880 --> 24:26.700 we're going to do it. 24:26.700 --> 24:31.500 of the tree in the midst of the garden, which was the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, 24:31.500 --> 24:35.340 and he knew that it was wrong, he knows that he shouldn't do it, 24:35.340 --> 24:40.180 yet his wife entices him. The Bible makes it clear his wife gave to him. 24:40.180 --> 24:44.460 Look at verse 6, it says, and when the woman saw that the tree was good for food and that it was 24:44.460 --> 24:47.580 pleasant to the eyes and a tree to be desired to make one wise, 24:47.580 --> 24:50.860 she took the fruit thereof and did eat, and notice this, and gave 24:50.860 --> 24:53.860 also under a husband with her and he did eat. Now... 24:54.600 --> 24:58.760 In verse six, it doesn't really explain what this looks like. 24:59.100 --> 25:05.140 We don't know what was said, but according to the text something was said because notice in verse number 17 25:05.500 --> 25:09.840 Adam had hearkened under the voice of his wife 25:09.840 --> 25:14.580 So in some way she said something to him whatever she said 25:14.820 --> 25:21.580 We don't know but essentially he listens to his wife and goes against God's commandment and does what he knows is wrong 25:21.580 --> 25:27.020 And really he should have said no he should have not allowed himself to eat of the fruit of the tree 25:27.100 --> 25:31.000 Of course, I don't believe he should have allowed his wife even to have eaten of the tree 25:31.100 --> 25:35.860 So, you know, there's another layer there, but for sure he should have not allowed this 25:35.860 --> 25:37.820 He should have not have gone along with his wife 25:37.820 --> 25:43.700 And this is a biblical principle that the husband is in some cases supposed to tell his wife. No 25:44.700 --> 25:47.160 Now, if you read the verse prior, 25:47.160 --> 25:50.500 Louis 16, under the woman he said, 25:50.500 --> 25:54.900 I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception. 25:54.900 --> 25:58.280 In sorrow, thou shalt bring forth children 25:58.280 --> 26:00.240 and thy desire shall be to thy husband. 26:00.240 --> 26:03.420 And notice this, and he shall rule over thee. 26:03.420 --> 26:08.060 So part of this Genesis creation is that the man 26:08.060 --> 26:10.560 is to have rule over his wife. 26:10.560 --> 26:12.700 Why is he wanting him to rule over her? 26:12.700 --> 26:18.460 her, well, partly, the Bible describes later, is that the man was not deceived, but the 26:18.460 --> 26:21.020 woman being deceived was in the transgression. 26:21.020 --> 26:27.560 And so the man is to enforce God's law for him and his family and to have rules and to 26:27.560 --> 26:30.540 rule over his wife, and that would be including saying no. 26:31.000 --> 26:36.400 Now, in today's society, in today's culture, just basically what I've said already is highly offensive. 26:36.400 --> 26:40.300 But let me rest assured, I will be way more offensive throughout the sermon, okay? 26:40.300 --> 26:43.200 Go to Ephesians chapter 5, go to Ephesians chapter 5. 26:43.200 --> 26:47.900 Because, you know, frankly speaking, I don't really care what society thinks, I just care whatever the Bible says. 26:49.400 --> 26:51.600 And, you know, men should not be pushovers. 26:51.600 --> 26:54.600 And we're in a society and a culture today that's bad 26:54.600 --> 26:56.900 because men won't say no. 26:56.900 --> 26:58.500 And they won't say no to their wives, 26:58.500 --> 27:00.600 and they won't say no to women in general. 27:00.600 --> 27:03.700 And so there's a lot of pushovers in society. 27:03.700 --> 27:06.000 And point one is that husbands and men 27:06.000 --> 27:07.600 need to not be a pushover. 27:07.600 --> 27:09.700 And they need to tell their wives no. 27:09.700 --> 27:12.700 If their wife makes a mistake, they need to correct her. 27:12.700 --> 27:15.500 If the wife is an error, they need to rule over her. 27:15.500 --> 27:17.400 That men need to say no to their wives. 27:17.400 --> 27:19.400 and not allow them to do certain things, 27:19.400 --> 27:21.400 and if they make mistakes, to correct the issue. 27:21.400 --> 27:23.400 You know, you can't... 27:23.400 --> 27:25.400 No one is gonna... 27:26.000 --> 27:28.880 Be perfect, you know, it's not like men are perfect either 27:28.980 --> 27:34.700 Okay, and of course men and many cases get corrected. They corrected by their bosses. They get corrected by society 27:34.700 --> 27:38.360 They corrected by their pastor. They corrected by the world. They can get corrected by law enforcement 27:38.540 --> 27:40.840 It's not like men don't have accountability as well 27:40.840 --> 27:47.420 We all typically have our own form of accountability our own places where we're told no and we have to submit as well 27:47.420 --> 27:52.500 But in the home the husband is to be the one in charge and he's the one to tell the wife. No 27:53.100 --> 27:55.300 And so we need this in society. 27:55.300 --> 27:57.100 We need men to rule their houses. 27:57.100 --> 27:59.100 Look at Ephesians 5 verse 23, 27:59.100 --> 28:01.100 for husband is the head of the wife, 28:01.100 --> 28:03.400 even as Christ is the head of the church. 28:03.400 --> 28:06.400 Do you think it's okay for Christ to tell the church no? 28:07.600 --> 28:09.400 It's called thou shalt not. 28:09.400 --> 28:11.100 It's like all over the Bible. 28:11.100 --> 28:13.400 God has no problem telling us no. 28:13.600 --> 28:20.000 So then in the same and like manner men should have thou shout not for his household and for his family and obviously gently 28:20.400 --> 28:24.960 Correcting them and at times even giving chastisement or punishment in some way he sees fit 28:25.280 --> 28:28.960 You know the bible makes it clear that the christ is the head of the church 28:29.280 --> 28:33.040 Just like the husband is the head of the wife many of there's going to have to be rules 28:33.520 --> 28:37.040 And you're going to have to say no at times and we need men to say no 28:37.680 --> 28:38.720 You know 28:38.720 --> 28:41.300 Your wife is going to screw up. That's just facts of life 28:41.600 --> 28:42.800 And you have to say no. 28:42.800 --> 28:46.400 There are many, it's like a joke today, 28:46.400 --> 28:47.440 and I don't like it. 28:47.440 --> 28:48.280 I'm just gonna be honest with you. 28:48.280 --> 28:49.680 There's a joke today that, 28:49.680 --> 28:51.760 oh, my wife's never been wrong. 28:51.760 --> 28:52.600 Lie. 28:52.600 --> 28:53.920 She has been wrong. 28:53.920 --> 28:55.640 And there are times when the husband has to say, 28:55.640 --> 28:56.600 hey, you're wrong. 28:57.000 --> 29:03.000 You don't want to live in a world, in a society where men can never say to their wife that they're wrong. 29:03.000 --> 29:04.500 Can never say no. 29:04.500 --> 29:06.500 Now, let's just be honest about it. 29:06.500 --> 29:12.400 If a man tries to rule his house, if a man tries to exert authority, there'll probably be fights every once in a while. 29:12.700 --> 29:15.100 It's like, why is there fights in a marriage? 29:15.100 --> 29:17.260 Okay, well number one is because you like each other. 29:17.260 --> 29:20.780 I mean, just to be honest, you don't fight with people you don't like, you just leave, okay? 29:20.780 --> 29:24.540 You fight because you like each other, and the second thing is, is because there's typically a 29:24.540 --> 29:28.220 husband telling his wife no. You know, these couples that say, I never fight, 29:28.220 --> 29:33.340 well, it's possible if you don't like each other, or you do whatever your wife says every single time. 29:33.340 --> 29:35.260 That's pretty much the only way to not have fighting. 29:35.500 --> 29:40.900 Because the reality is there's gonna be conflict, there's gonna be no, there's gonna be things that you don't like, 29:40.900 --> 29:44.500 and as a result, there's gonna be some tension, there's gonna be some conflict. 29:44.500 --> 29:47.000 You know, it doesn't bother me when couples fight. 29:47.000 --> 29:50.800 You know, it's actually in some cases more healthy than a couple that never fights. 29:50.800 --> 29:55.900 Just because in some cases you're kind of wondering like what's really going on in that particular context. 29:55.900 --> 30:01.200 Because if you're around another sinner for any length of time, you get irritated with each other. 30:01.200 --> 30:03.500 You get annoyed by each other, you're gonna rub each other... 30:03.500 --> 30:06.940 wrong, you're going to have problems, you're going to have conflicts. That's just life. 30:06.940 --> 30:11.660 You know, you can have the honeymoon phase, but the honeymoon ends, okay? And we all get 30:11.660 --> 30:15.900 it. You may not even got all the way through the honeymoon, okay? But at the end of the 30:15.900 --> 30:18.860 day, you know, there's going to be tension, there's going to be escalation. And you know 30:18.860 --> 30:22.380 what? We need men that are going to say no, and they're going to rule their house, they're 30:22.380 --> 30:26.380 going to be the head of their wife. And notice Christ is the savior of the body in the same 30:26.380 --> 30:30.300 way that husbands are trying to save their wives from danger, from problems by telling 30:30.300 --> 30:31.300 them know. 30:31.300 --> 30:31.500 Therefore, I'd like to thank you for joining us. 30:31.500 --> 30:34.980 the church is subject unto Christ, so let the wives be to their husbands. Notice this 30:34.980 --> 30:39.940 in everything. Husbands, love your wives even as Christ also loved the church and gave himself 30:39.940 --> 30:40.340 for it. 30:40.900 --> 30:45.720 Now, again, the Bible's kind of trying to use two different things to really illustrate 30:45.720 --> 30:46.920 what it should look like. 30:46.920 --> 30:50.260 Yeah, you rule over your wife, and yeah, you have rules, and yeah, you're trying to guide 30:50.260 --> 30:53.420 her and instruct her, and it could even have consequences. 30:53.420 --> 30:56.620 But at the same time, you're supposed to be loving her, and you're supposed to care for 30:56.620 --> 30:58.820 her, and you're supposed to treat her as your own body. 30:58.820 --> 31:03.220 You're supposed to nourish it and cherish it as you would your own flesh, as the Bible 31:03.220 --> 31:05.360 describes this kind of situation. 31:05.360 --> 31:08.900 But it's like, yeah, I can discipline my body. 31:08.900 --> 31:09.740 What is that? 31:09.740 --> 31:11.740 It's just not eating everything I want. 31:11.740 --> 31:14.820 I mean, hopefully most people exercise some discipline, 31:14.820 --> 31:17.220 some self control over their body. 31:17.220 --> 31:18.740 And let me explain something to you. 31:18.740 --> 31:21.200 Not eating can hurt. 31:21.900 --> 31:25.580 Exercise can have some pain associated with it. 31:25.580 --> 31:29.260 You know, just different aspects of self-control over your body, 31:29.260 --> 31:33.100 grooming, all the different aspects that come to taking care of your body. 31:33.100 --> 31:35.340 But you know, you don't groom yourself because you hate yourself, 31:35.340 --> 31:37.020 you groom yourself because you love yourself. 31:37.300 --> 31:40.980 You take care of your body because you love your flesh and because you love your body 31:40.980 --> 31:44.260 and you want to take good care of it, you want to be healthy and in the same manner, 31:44.260 --> 31:49.220 this is how marriage should be. What you're doing is you're trying to take care of your wife and 31:49.220 --> 31:53.300 you're trying to nourish your wife and you cherish your wife, you think she's very special, 31:53.300 --> 31:56.740 you don't want to harm her, you don't want to injure her, you don't want to do anything that 31:56.740 --> 32:02.340 would be like a negative consequence in a long-term situation. You're only doing things that are good 32:02.340 --> 32:05.300 for them ultimately and you'd never want to cause... 32:05.300 --> 32:07.700 something that's going to be a permanent injury. 32:07.700 --> 32:10.700 You know, skipping a meal is not going to cause a permanent injury. 32:11.000 --> 32:12.000 It may be uncomfortable. 32:12.000 --> 32:17.600 So it's like telling your wife no isn't going to be the reason why your marriage failed. 32:17.600 --> 32:18.600 Okay? 32:18.600 --> 32:19.600 But you know what? 32:19.600 --> 32:22.720 Never telling her no could be a reason why your marriage could fail. 32:22.720 --> 32:28.040 In the same way that never telling your body no and just eating until you just can't even 32:28.040 --> 32:32.000 physically do it anymore could harm the body long term. 32:32.000 --> 32:34.040 It could have negative consequences. 32:34.040 --> 32:38.120 So we have to use the illustrations the Bible are illustrating here for us to understand 32:38.120 --> 32:39.000 it. 32:39.000 --> 32:42.200 ourselves. Look at verse 26, that he might sanctify and 32:42.200 --> 32:44.500 cleanse it with the washing of water by the word. Why do we 32:44.500 --> 32:47.100 take showers? It's because we love our body. 32:47.500 --> 32:51.100 And we don't like the smell of our body when it's not washed. 32:51.100 --> 32:52.500 It can smell gross. 32:52.500 --> 32:57.780 And the same way that a relationship that's never being cleaned up, that's never being 32:57.780 --> 33:04.060 essentially a wife and a husband relationship, where the husband's never correcting his wife, 33:04.060 --> 33:05.500 you're going to smell that body odor. 33:05.500 --> 33:06.500 Okay? 33:06.500 --> 33:09.160 And I'm not saying literally, I'm saying by this metaphor. 33:09.160 --> 33:10.460 It's going to kind of stink. 33:10.460 --> 33:14.660 It's going to kind of be smelly, and it's going to be off-putting to other people around. 33:14.660 --> 33:15.500 What does body odor do? 33:15.500 --> 33:19.000 everybody smells it and it smells bad and it's off-putting. 33:19.000 --> 33:23.000 In the same way that a wife that's just mouthing off about her husband, 33:23.000 --> 33:27.000 criticizing her husband in open, just being obnoxious, 33:27.000 --> 33:30.000 won't listen to her husband, doesn't respect her husband's opinion, 33:30.000 --> 33:34.000 you know, that's just really off-putting, it makes you feel uncomfortable. 33:34.000 --> 33:37.500 I mean, have you ever been around a couple and then the wife just runs her mouth 33:37.500 --> 33:40.500 to her husband in front of y'all and you're just kind of like, whoa, like... 33:40.900 --> 33:42.900 I'll just go over here. 33:42.900 --> 33:44.100 I don't want to be around. 33:44.100 --> 33:45.500 It's just weird. 33:45.500 --> 33:46.800 It's gross. 33:46.800 --> 33:49.500 And in the same way, sometimes you have to say like, hey, no, 33:49.500 --> 33:50.200 don't say that. 33:50.200 --> 33:51.100 That's not appropriate. 33:51.100 --> 33:52.900 You're not allowed to talk to me that way. 33:52.900 --> 33:55.400 This is a healthy marriage. 33:55.800 --> 33:59.080 says that he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle 33:59.080 --> 34:01.880 or any such thing, but that it should be holy without blemish. 34:01.880 --> 34:04.200 So ought men to love their wives with their own bodies. 34:04.200 --> 34:09.760 He that loveth his wife loveth himself, for no man ever yet hated his own flesh, but nourisheth 34:09.760 --> 34:12.800 and cherisheth it even as the Lord the church, for he were members of his body and of his 34:12.800 --> 34:14.080 flesh and of his bones. 34:14.080 --> 34:17.280 For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall he join in his wife, and 34:17.280 --> 34:18.800 they too shall be one flesh." 34:18.800 --> 34:23.800 So again, you know, this is a great passage about marriage, but notice that the end of 34:23.800 --> 34:31.600 emphasis is on the husband being the head, on the husband washing his wife with the word, 34:31.600 --> 34:37.440 and basically being in charge, trying to clean up himself and her with the Word of God, with 34:37.440 --> 34:39.440 the Bible, having rules. 34:39.440 --> 34:41.160 This is what creates a healthy marriage. 34:41.160 --> 34:42.960 Just like washing creates a healthy body. 34:43.300 --> 34:48.300 You know, washing yourself with the word creates a healthy marriage, creates a healthy environment for society. 34:48.300 --> 34:51.300 Why is it that we have a world that's screwed up? 34:51.300 --> 34:53.300 Is that men won't correct their wives. 34:53.300 --> 34:56.300 Men won't basically tell their wives no. 34:56.300 --> 35:01.300 That men just hearken on the voice of their wives and do things that are sinful and against God's word. 35:01.300 --> 35:06.300 And we have a major, a major crisis of feminism in this country. 35:06.300 --> 35:09.300 Major. This is not minor, folks. 35:09.300 --> 35:10.900 There is a woman. 35:11.300 --> 35:13.300 who had murdered three of her children, 35:13.300 --> 35:16.800 and we have hundreds of thousands, if not millions of women 35:16.800 --> 35:19.300 going online empathizing with the situation, 35:19.300 --> 35:21.300 acting like it's kind of normal, 35:21.300 --> 35:23.300 acting like it's kind of reasonable, 35:23.300 --> 35:26.800 acting like having children is somehow a negative thing, 35:26.800 --> 35:28.300 and it's just, it's insane. 35:28.300 --> 35:30.800 It's insane. Our country's lost its mind. 35:30.800 --> 35:33.800 We have women in virtually every position 35:33.800 --> 35:35.300 in our government right now. 35:35.300 --> 35:37.300 We have women in law enforcement, 35:37.300 --> 35:39.200 which is just nonsensical. 35:39.200 --> 35:41.800 If you ask me, and again, policing the streets. 35:41.800 --> 35:44.300 I get it, if you just have a woman on the phone, 35:44.300 --> 35:46.800 or you have a woman for a specific triage unit, 35:46.800 --> 35:48.300 hey, I'm not gonna throw stones. 35:48.300 --> 35:50.200 But we have women policing the streets, 35:50.200 --> 35:51.700 which is nonsense, folks. 35:51.700 --> 35:53.100 We have women in the military, 35:53.100 --> 35:55.700 we've lowered standards in Marine Corps 35:55.700 --> 35:57.500 and in other departments of the military, 35:57.500 --> 35:59.500 just so women could be in those positions. 35:59.500 --> 36:02.300 We have DEI, we have all kinds of women in the workforce, 36:02.300 --> 36:04.200 and so much adultery in America. 36:04.200 --> 36:07.100 This is not a minor problem, this is a major problem. 36:07.200 --> 36:11.280 and it's because men will not just say no to their wives. 36:11.280 --> 36:12.980 We have women pastors, 36:12.980 --> 36:15.160 we have women that are running churches, 36:15.160 --> 36:18.160 we have women that are just out of control in society 36:18.160 --> 36:23.020 and we need men to say no and not be a pushover. 36:23.020 --> 36:25.620 Look, we're literally here because of this situation 36:25.620 --> 36:27.820 because Adam didn't tell his wife no. 36:29.200 --> 36:32.940 You want to go back to the beginning problems of mankind? 36:32.940 --> 36:35.840 It's this, a man harkening under the voice of his wife. 36:35.840 --> 36:38.880 That's what the Bible records as the first transgression. 36:38.880 --> 36:41.180 Why would I think that the devil went to a different playbook 36:41.180 --> 36:43.420 when it's just been so effective so far? 36:43.420 --> 36:45.980 And again, this is a major issue. 36:45.980 --> 36:48.860 We'll go to Titus chapter two, since we're really close, 36:48.860 --> 36:51.760 and we'll just revisit a few verses this evening 36:51.760 --> 36:53.360 that we read this morning as well. 36:53.800 --> 36:59.960 Titus chapter 2 look at verse number 3 the Bible says the aged women likewise that they'd be in behavior 37:00.280 --> 37:04.680 Okay, look at verse 4 that they may teach the young women to be sober to love their husbands to love their children 37:05.400 --> 37:09.040 Verse 5 to be discreet chaper chase keepers at home notice this good 37:10.200 --> 37:15.220 Obedient to their own husbands so on one side the Bible says husbands rule your wives 37:16.000 --> 37:17.200 It says be the head. 37:17.200 --> 37:18.300 It says that they should be subject. 37:18.300 --> 37:20.300 On the other side, it's saying, hey, be subject, 37:20.300 --> 37:22.400 be good, be obedient. 37:22.400 --> 37:25.200 So again, from every angle, the Bible is saying 37:25.200 --> 37:27.700 the exact same narrative consistently. 37:27.700 --> 37:30.100 How is a wife to be obedient to her husband 37:30.100 --> 37:32.900 if he doesn't have rules, if he doesn't tell her no, 37:32.900 --> 37:35.100 then you're not even giving her an opportunity to be obedient. 37:35.400 --> 37:37.800 You know, we have to have men that are willing to say no. 37:37.800 --> 37:42.800 And again, saying no out of love, saying no because they nourish and cherish their wives, 37:42.800 --> 37:46.840 saying no because they want to protect their wives, saying no because they want good things 37:46.840 --> 37:48.760 for their wives, obviously. 37:48.760 --> 37:52.280 We're not saying just say no because you're mean-spirited or a jerk. 37:52.280 --> 37:53.280 And I get that. 37:53.280 --> 37:57.360 And of course, this is what people do is they'll say, oh, so you're saying these mean, jerk 37:57.360 --> 38:00.080 losers can just trash their wives? 38:00.080 --> 38:01.080 Absolutely not. 38:01.080 --> 38:01.200 you 38:01.200 --> 38:03.000 You know, we're in a fundamental Baptist church. 38:03.000 --> 38:05.900 I don't think we're hanging out with a bunch of derelict drug addicts 38:05.900 --> 38:10.800 that are just these mean gang bangers that are asking their wives to commit crimes or something. 38:10.800 --> 38:14.200 Like, why are we going to these weird hypotheticals that don't even exist anyways? 38:14.600 --> 38:19.000 You know, those type of people are so far from anything in the Bible right now 38:19.000 --> 38:20.900 that I'm not really worried about their scenario. 38:20.900 --> 38:22.900 You know what I'm worried about? I'm worried about your scenario 38:22.900 --> 38:26.700 and a normal healthy marriage of people that are going to church three times a week 38:26.700 --> 38:31.400 reading a King James Bible, you having the courage and the boldest to just say to your wife, 38:31.400 --> 38:34.100 no, occasionally, right? Because it's good for her. 38:34.100 --> 38:37.300 Because you know it's right. Because you know that's what the Bible says. 38:37.300 --> 38:40.100 Go to Proverbs 31, go to Proverbs 31. 38:41.400 --> 38:44.840 Now again, this is scary. This is scary to women because they just think like, 38:44.840 --> 38:51.560 oh man, you know, if my husband tells me no, I'm going to miss out. Miss out on what exactly? 38:52.280 --> 38:58.280 Miss out on the fruit that God said not to eat? Miss out on all the extra pain that was going to 38:58.280 --> 39:01.080 come with childbirth? Because that's what you missed out on. 39:01.300 --> 39:08.500 According to the Bible, you would have not had as bad a pregnancy by listening to your husband and just not eating of the fruit. 39:08.500 --> 39:12.300 By eating of the fruit, now your pregnancy is way worse. 39:12.300 --> 39:13.900 I mean, that's just the Bible. 39:13.900 --> 39:16.500 He said he's going to multiply thy sorrow and conception. 39:16.800 --> 39:21.500 I didn't write that. God said that. And God said that was a punishment for not doing what the husband said. 39:21.500 --> 39:26.300 So am I supposed to then randomly believe that it would be different that in future decisions, 39:26.300 --> 39:31.100 when a husband says no, it wouldn't be possibly protecting a wife from literal pain, 39:31.100 --> 39:36.100 from other anguish, from other sorrows, from financial ruin, from all kinds of other issues? 39:36.100 --> 39:39.700 You know, there's a reason why women should harken to their husband, 39:39.700 --> 39:43.500 because they're looking out for them, because they love them, because they want to do good under them. Okay? 39:43.800 --> 39:48.880 Proverbs chapter 31 look at verse 12 the Bible says she will do him good and not evil all the days of her life 39:49.000 --> 39:51.280 you know, this is the ideal woman and 39:52.200 --> 39:58.360 As a parent we give rules to our children so that they'll obey us from an ideal perspective 39:58.640 --> 40:02.640 But we understand they're never gonna be perfect. Okay, but we should still hold them to a perfect standard 40:02.640 --> 40:07.280 I expect my children to obey me. I'm not saying like it's okay to disobey me 40:07.700 --> 40:09.060 It's okay to be bad. 40:09.060 --> 40:11.460 I know they will be bad, and I know they will disobey me, 40:11.460 --> 40:12.580 but then when they do, I'm saying, 40:12.580 --> 40:14.300 hey, you should be punished, you're holding the standard. 40:14.300 --> 40:16.100 So here's the thing, women are never gonna be 40:16.100 --> 40:18.860 this standard of always perfect, I get it, 40:18.860 --> 40:21.700 but shouldn't we try to hold our wives to this standard? 40:21.700 --> 40:24.100 So what I'm saying is when she's not good, 40:24.100 --> 40:25.800 shouldn't we say, hey, you should be good? 40:26.200 --> 40:30.760 When she's not doing you good all the days of her life, she's doing you evil, can't you say, 40:30.760 --> 40:35.800 hey, you're supposed to do good to me today, not evil to me, and tell her that she should be 40:35.800 --> 40:40.440 different. Tell her she should act this way. Give her some instruction. And you know what? When a 40:40.440 --> 40:44.440 woman does her husband evil, you know what the husband should say? You're not supposed to do 40:44.440 --> 40:48.040 that. You need to correct it. You need to fix it. That's what he should do. 40:48.500 --> 40:55.300 He shouldn't just allow his wife to do him evil, disrespect him, do things that are contrary to him. 40:55.300 --> 40:58.100 She should only do him good, only speak positive of him. 40:58.100 --> 40:59.300 Look at verse 26. 40:59.300 --> 41:03.860 She opened her mouth with wisdom and in her tongue is the law of kindness. 41:04.000 --> 41:06.800 You notice this is what the woman should be like. 41:06.800 --> 41:08.660 She should be speaking with wisdom. 41:08.660 --> 41:12.160 She should make sure that what she's saying is kind, is positive. 41:12.160 --> 41:14.240 She's not tearing down her husband. 41:14.240 --> 41:15.800 She's not trashing her husband. 41:15.800 --> 41:19.640 You know, women, if you have a complaint to your husband, you need to tell your husband 41:19.640 --> 41:20.640 and God. 41:21.800 --> 41:23.920 You should not be going around trashing your husband, 41:23.920 --> 41:25.420 talking negatively about your husband. 41:25.420 --> 41:26.760 You know, what should be the ideal 41:26.760 --> 41:28.720 is that you have the law of kindness on your tongue, 41:28.720 --> 41:30.900 and when you open your mouth about your husband, 41:30.900 --> 41:31.920 it is to what? 41:31.920 --> 41:33.860 It is to praise him, to lift him up, 41:33.860 --> 41:36.260 and hey, if there's not much to say, 41:36.260 --> 41:38.260 well then just, I guess you have to be quiet. 41:38.260 --> 41:39.400 But, you know, at the end of the day, 41:39.400 --> 41:41.720 you shouldn't be going around criticizing your husband, 41:41.720 --> 41:42.900 tearing down your husband, 41:42.900 --> 41:44.460 speaking negatively about your husband, 41:44.460 --> 41:45.820 and look, this happens. 41:46.100 --> 41:49.620 This happens where women go around complaining about how they don't have money, 41:49.620 --> 41:54.500 or complaining about what their husband does, or complaining about the husband's attitude, 41:54.500 --> 41:59.060 or complaining this and that. It's just like, you know what? That's inappropriate. 41:59.060 --> 42:03.940 It's not comely. It's not seemly. It's not meat. It's not what's right. 42:03.940 --> 42:07.940 She should only be opening her mouth to say positive things about her husband. 42:07.940 --> 42:10.580 Go to Proverbs 9. Go backwards to Proverbs 9. 42:13.000 --> 42:14.740 I'll tell you a couple more verses on this. 42:14.740 --> 42:16.900 We're just, I'm just showing you a lot of Bible. 42:16.900 --> 42:18.180 I hope you like Bible. 42:18.180 --> 42:20.600 Proverbs chapter nine, look at verse one. 42:20.600 --> 42:23.320 The Bible says, wisdom hath built in her house, 42:23.320 --> 42:24.860 she hath hewn out her seven pillars. 42:24.860 --> 42:25.400 Now. 42:25.600 --> 42:30.600 This is kind of like a personification of wisdom and it's describing it in a female sense. 42:30.600 --> 42:36.900 So I think you could take an extrapolation in this and say this is kind of like how women should be in the household as well, 42:36.900 --> 42:38.800 is that they would be building their house. 42:38.800 --> 42:43.400 And again, notice in this context, wisdom is building the house, right? 42:43.400 --> 42:46.000 It's doing good in the house, but it's like a positive edifying. 42:46.000 --> 42:48.100 Edifying is to build up, it's a building house. 42:48.100 --> 42:51.700 You can take this literally, metaphorically, I don't care which way you take it, it's right. 42:52.100 --> 42:56.700 Okay, but that contrasted in verse 13 to the foolish woman. 42:56.700 --> 42:59.200 A foolish woman is clamorous. 42:59.200 --> 43:08.000 She is simple and knoweth nothing for she sit at the door of her house on a seat and the high places of the city. 43:08.000 --> 43:10.500 So it's like one woman's building her house. 43:10.500 --> 43:13.500 She's like focused on working on her house and doing stuff to build up her house. 43:13.500 --> 43:17.000 The other woman is just sitting outside just. 43:17.300 --> 43:22.100 elevating herself and really just being a loud obnoxious person. 43:22.100 --> 43:25.700 I mean that's just what the texts say. What is clamorous? 43:25.700 --> 43:28.980 Making a loud and confused noise. 43:28.980 --> 43:33.380 It's just a loud, it's clamorous, okay. 43:33.380 --> 43:36.580 And why confused? Well, think about it. What is this woman? 43:36.580 --> 43:37.580 She's simple. 43:38.100 --> 43:43.860 And again, that just means that she's lacking education, lacking knowledge, lacking wisdom, 43:43.860 --> 43:44.860 lacking information. 43:44.860 --> 43:47.260 Like, she doesn't really know anything. 43:47.260 --> 43:50.040 But she just wants to hear herself talk. 43:50.040 --> 43:54.220 So she's just, she's elevating herself into a position of status. 43:54.220 --> 43:58.980 She's elevating herself to where, hey, I want everybody to hear what I have to say. 43:59.500 --> 44:03.000 I mean, look, she's sitting in a seat, according to the Bible, 44:03.000 --> 44:07.000 she's sitting at the door of her house, on a seat, in the high places of the city. 44:07.000 --> 44:13.000 It's like, she's really elevating herself, and really trying to get her voice out there, 44:13.000 --> 44:15.200 but she doesn't really know anything. 44:15.200 --> 44:18.200 She doesn't really have... She's not adding to the conversation. 44:18.200 --> 44:21.100 She's not benefiting anybody from hearing her talk. 44:21.100 --> 44:25.600 She's just making a loud, obnoxious sound that's confusing. 44:25.800 --> 44:27.340 Why is it confusing? 44:27.340 --> 44:29.400 Because she doesn't even know what she's saying. 44:29.400 --> 44:31.500 She's contradicting herself. 44:31.500 --> 44:34.340 She's saying things that are just contrary to the Bible. 44:34.340 --> 44:37.420 She's saying things that have already been proven false 44:37.420 --> 44:40.420 by just history, facts, math, whatever. 44:40.420 --> 44:43.720 She's just saying stuff and she's like, this isn't real. 44:43.720 --> 44:45.380 She's, I mean, this is basically a woman 44:45.380 --> 44:47.660 expounding the flat earth theory, okay? 44:48.620 --> 44:49.860 What would be a woman like this? 44:49.860 --> 44:51.460 I don't know, like Candace Owens. 44:51.500 --> 44:57.580 Just getting up and look, she just gets up there and she just blabs and just says nonsense. 44:57.580 --> 45:00.100 She says things that are provably false. 45:00.100 --> 45:02.920 She gets up and just says things that are contradictory. 45:02.920 --> 45:06.020 And it's like, she's just not highly educated. 45:06.020 --> 45:10.020 She's just not well versed in a lot of subjects that she constantly gives an opinion on. 45:10.020 --> 45:13.620 Now maybe she's educated in some subjects. 45:13.620 --> 45:16.180 And hey, if you're really educated in a certain area, talk about it. 45:16.180 --> 45:17.180 But you know what? 45:17.180 --> 45:19.420 I've noticed with her, she'll get up and she'll just talk about things she has no- 45:19.500 --> 45:21.100 I have no idea what she's talking about. 45:21.100 --> 45:23.900 And look, does she have degrees in science? 45:23.900 --> 45:28.980 Does she have degrees in astronomy and stuff like this that she can intelligently speak 45:28.980 --> 45:30.640 about the shape of the earth? 45:30.640 --> 45:32.640 You know what, just shut up then. 45:32.640 --> 45:35.020 Why are you getting up and expounding this type of things? 45:35.020 --> 45:40.380 And look, it really embodies her so well because even when she got up, she's like, I'm not 45:40.380 --> 45:41.380 saying the earth is flat. 45:41.380 --> 45:43.220 I'm just saying it's really interesting. 45:44.000 --> 45:46.200 I'm just saying, you know, we should kind of look into it. 45:46.200 --> 45:47.700 It's just confusing. 45:47.700 --> 45:49.200 It's like, so are you for it? 45:49.200 --> 45:50.300 Are you not for it? 45:50.300 --> 45:51.100 Do you believe it? 45:51.100 --> 45:51.900 Do you not believe it? 45:51.900 --> 45:52.600 Does it make sense? 45:52.600 --> 45:53.500 Does it not make sense? 45:53.500 --> 45:55.300 And again, this is just some people, 45:55.300 --> 45:57.200 they just turn on the camera because they just 45:57.200 --> 45:58.800 want to hear themselves talk. 45:58.800 --> 46:01.500 And it's saying, this is what the foolish woman is like. 46:01.500 --> 46:02.100 OK? 46:02.100 --> 46:03.600 And you know what a husband should do? 46:03.600 --> 46:06.000 He should turn off the camera. 46:06.000 --> 46:09.300 He should say, no, you're embarrassing me. 46:09.700 --> 46:14.620 Look, I can't imagine how embarrassed I would be if my wife got and made a video and said 46:14.620 --> 46:18.140 that she was thinking about the flat earth theory. 46:18.140 --> 46:22.820 She's reading books on the flat earth theory and thinking it's really interesting and really 46:22.820 --> 46:23.820 engaging. 46:23.820 --> 46:28.540 And she was like, hey, I was trying to laugh about how stupid people are, and so I was 46:28.540 --> 46:30.500 reading this book about how stupid flat earthers are. 46:30.500 --> 46:31.500 Okay, maybe. 46:31.500 --> 46:33.700 But even then, it's just like, it's just silly. 46:34.300 --> 46:38.420 It's a foolish woman getting up, just expounding this kind of stuff. 46:38.420 --> 46:42.140 And you know, men should be telling their women, hey, if you don't know what you're 46:42.140 --> 46:43.940 talking about, just shut up. 46:43.940 --> 46:45.540 That's mean. 46:45.540 --> 46:48.660 You know, you think that, yeah, I think that women should shut up if they don't know what 46:48.660 --> 46:49.660 they're talking about. 46:49.660 --> 46:53.200 Go to Proverbs chapter 25, go to Proverbs 25. 46:53.200 --> 46:56.020 Foolish women getting up and just blabbing and just saying whatever. 46:56.020 --> 46:59.060 The Bible says in Proverbs 25, look at verse 28. 47:00.600 --> 47:04.600 He that hath no rule over his own spirit 47:04.600 --> 47:06.920 is like a city that is broken down without walls. 47:06.920 --> 47:09.560 You know, we should control ourselves. 47:09.560 --> 47:12.040 And if as men we are to control ourselves, 47:12.040 --> 47:13.540 the Bible says we're supposed to treat our wife 47:13.540 --> 47:15.080 as our own body, meaning you need 47:15.080 --> 47:16.580 to control your wife as well. 47:16.900 --> 47:18.060 And you need to have a rule over that. 47:18.060 --> 47:20.660 Otherwise, you're like a city that's broken down 47:20.660 --> 47:24.060 and without walls, meaning it's uncontrollable, 47:24.060 --> 47:26.580 it's wild, you never know what's gonna happen. 47:26.580 --> 47:28.300 It's, you're not protected. 47:28.300 --> 47:30.420 What is the point of having walls? 47:32.780 --> 47:34.460 It's to keep things out. 47:34.460 --> 47:35.300 That's it. 47:35.300 --> 47:36.120 That's the reason. 47:36.120 --> 47:36.960 Why do you have a gate? 47:36.960 --> 47:38.160 It's to keep things out. 47:38.400 --> 47:45.200 That's the reason for the most. I mean, you could argue that in some cases you keep some things in like a dog or a prisoner 47:45.600 --> 47:49.600 But for the most part, you know walls for a city is to keep things out of the city 47:50.000 --> 47:52.400 By and large, it's not to keep things in the city 47:52.720 --> 47:53.440 Okay 47:53.440 --> 47:55.440 And so what are you trying to do? 47:55.760 --> 48:01.840 You're trying to have rules to keep things out of your life and to stop things from happening and prevent things from happening 48:02.080 --> 48:04.080 Go over to job to go to job, too 48:04.080 --> 48:06.320 I'm just i'm just going to lots of verses before I make some 48:06.400 --> 48:10.840 application here, but I think it's super clear that husbands need to tell their 48:10.840 --> 48:16.480 wives no and men need to tell women no in certain contexts and I'm just making 48:16.480 --> 48:17.440 a biblical case for it. 48:20.400 --> 48:25.100 And one of those ways is telling women to sometimes just shut up about something, okay? 48:25.100 --> 48:29.400 And to stop embarrassing yourself, stop embarrassing your husband, stop embarrassing your family. 48:29.400 --> 48:32.800 Now, it says in Job 2, look at verse 9, 48:32.800 --> 48:34.000 then said his wife unto him, 48:34.000 --> 48:36.640 Dost thou still retain thine integrity? 48:36.640 --> 48:38.000 Curse God and die. 48:38.700 --> 48:42.140 But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. 48:42.140 --> 48:43.140 What? 48:43.140 --> 48:45.980 Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? 48:45.980 --> 48:48.220 And all this did not Job sin with his lips." 48:48.220 --> 48:52.580 Did you notice Job corrected his wife and he did not sin? 48:52.580 --> 48:54.300 So the Bible says. 48:54.300 --> 48:57.360 He's like, hey, you sound like a stupid woman. 48:57.360 --> 48:59.620 And the Bible says he didn't sin. 48:59.620 --> 49:02.040 Now she might not have agreed with that. 49:02.040 --> 49:03.420 How dare you talk to me like that? 49:03.700 --> 49:06.300 He said, hey, you sound like one of these stupid women. 49:06.300 --> 49:07.700 You sound like a foolish woman. 49:07.700 --> 49:09.380 You're talking like a heathen. 49:09.380 --> 49:11.780 You're talking about an unbeliever. 49:11.780 --> 49:13.780 You're saying something dumb here. 49:13.780 --> 49:14.660 And you know what? 49:14.660 --> 49:19.940 Occasionally, occasionally, it might be right for a husband 49:19.940 --> 49:23.620 to get up and say, hey, you sounded like a stupid feminist 49:23.620 --> 49:24.460 when you said that. 49:25.500 --> 49:28.100 You sounded like a dumb broad. 49:28.100 --> 49:30.000 You sounded like an unbeliever. 49:30.000 --> 49:32.100 You sounded like a stupid woman. 49:32.100 --> 49:33.800 Don't talk like that. 49:33.800 --> 49:34.800 Because it's embarrassing. 49:34.800 --> 49:35.600 It's embarrassing. 49:35.600 --> 49:36.800 It's wrong. 49:36.800 --> 49:38.400 You're giving bad advice here. 49:38.400 --> 49:40.100 You're giving bad counsel. 49:40.100 --> 49:42.600 You're causing people to go against the things of God. 49:42.600 --> 49:43.100 And you know what? 49:43.100 --> 49:44.200 You're wrong. 49:44.200 --> 49:44.600 And you know what? 49:44.600 --> 49:46.200 That is reality. 49:46.200 --> 49:48.200 Go to Esther chapter 1. 49:48.200 --> 49:50.300 You know, we could just go. 49:50.300 --> 49:52.300 I could preach a whole sermon on this point, but... 49:52.800 --> 49:57.180 I'm going to kind of wrap up this point in Esther, but here's the thing. 49:57.180 --> 50:02.940 In Kings, talking about Ahab, it says, but there was none like an Ahab, which did sell 50:02.940 --> 50:07.740 himself to work wickedness in the sight of the Lord, whom Jezebel his wife stirred up. 50:07.740 --> 50:12.940 The Bible says one of the worst guys in the Bible, one of the worst kings in the Bible, 50:12.940 --> 50:16.100 the reason why he was so bad is because his wife. 50:16.100 --> 50:17.980 And because his wife stirred him up. 50:17.980 --> 50:19.660 Meaning he should have told his wife no. 50:20.500 --> 50:24.500 There should have been times in Ham's life where he told Jezebel, no. 50:24.500 --> 50:29.500 Solomon, the Bible says about him, he had 700 wives, princes, and 300 concubines, 50:29.500 --> 50:32.500 and his wives turned away his heart. 50:32.500 --> 50:34.500 He should have told some of those wives, no. 50:34.500 --> 50:36.500 In fact, you should have said no to wives at that point. 50:36.500 --> 50:39.500 At some point, you just say no to wives, okay? 50:39.500 --> 50:43.400 Solomon had a problem saying no. Let's just be honest. 50:43.900 --> 50:48.900 And notice, he has a problem saying no to just collecting wives like Pokemon or something. 50:48.900 --> 50:51.900 He's like, I gotta catch them all. 50:51.900 --> 50:54.900 Basically, his attitude. 50:54.900 --> 51:01.900 But here's the thing, if he's in that same category, unable to say no, isn't he also going to be similar? 51:01.900 --> 51:04.600 And then when his wives come to him, he can't say no either. 51:05.100 --> 51:07.500 And I mean, it's Solomon. I mean, Solomon is the king. 51:07.500 --> 51:08.780 He has every right. 51:08.780 --> 51:11.260 No one can criticize him in a sense, like as a man. 51:11.260 --> 51:12.940 Like, there's no man that's going to speak down to him. 51:12.940 --> 51:15.660 He's the king. He can tell his wife no, but he can't. 51:16.300 --> 51:19.100 And you know, it's sad that we have men in positions of authority and power, 51:19.100 --> 51:20.540 and they can't tell their wives no. 51:20.540 --> 51:22.700 They're the pastor of the church, and they can't tell their wife no. 51:23.340 --> 51:25.900 They're the president, and they can't tell a woman no. 51:25.900 --> 51:28.300 You know, they're a high-ranking CEO. 51:28.300 --> 51:30.780 They're a deacon. They're whatever, and they can't tell their wife no. 51:31.740 --> 51:32.540 It's embarrassing. 51:33.200 --> 51:35.440 Look at Esther chapter 1 verse 15, 51:35.440 --> 51:39.120 what shall we do under the queen Vashti according to the law because she have not 51:39.120 --> 51:41.920 performed the commandment of the king of Hazuris by the chamberlains. 51:41.920 --> 51:43.680 So we have a wife that disobeys her husband. 51:44.400 --> 51:46.480 He doesn't, she doesn't do what her husband says. 51:46.480 --> 51:49.920 Verse 16, and Mimukun answered, before the king and the prince's Vashti, 51:49.920 --> 51:52.720 the queen hath not done wrong to the king only, 51:52.720 --> 51:58.800 but also to all the princes and to all the people that are in all the provinces of the king of Hazuris. 51:59.700 --> 52:07.700 For this deed of the queen shall come abroad unto all women, so that they shall despise 52:07.700 --> 52:09.740 their husbands in their eyes. 52:09.740 --> 52:14.280 When it shall be reported, the king of Hazras commanded Vastu the queen to be brought in 52:14.280 --> 52:17.220 before him, but she came not. 52:17.700 --> 52:22.220 Likewise, shall the ladies of Persia and Media say this day, and to all the kings and princes 52:22.220 --> 52:28.820 which have heard the deed of the queen, thus shall there arise too much contempt and wrath." 52:28.820 --> 52:31.620 So again, what you can learn from this is that the men in the Middle East never have 52:31.620 --> 52:32.620 a woman problem. 52:32.620 --> 52:33.620 I'm just kidding. 52:33.620 --> 52:35.820 It's a joke, all right? 52:35.820 --> 52:42.420 But what you can learn from this is that by principle, a woman in a position of recognition, 52:42.420 --> 52:43.300 of status. 52:43.600 --> 52:46.600 her actions will obviously affect a lot of other people. 52:46.600 --> 52:49.700 You know, why is it important for the aged women to be in behavior? 52:49.700 --> 52:53.000 Because in many cases the younger women will follow in like suit. 52:53.000 --> 52:56.600 And so this is an example of how the queen, if the queen, 52:56.600 --> 52:58.200 can disrespect her husband. 52:58.200 --> 53:00.800 If the queen can go against her husband, if the queen can say, 53:00.800 --> 53:02.200 I can do whatever I want, 53:02.200 --> 53:05.600 well then how much more every other lady is going to follow like suit 53:05.600 --> 53:07.200 and do the same to their husbands. 53:07.200 --> 53:10.200 And notice it's kind of like saying, whatever she does... 53:10.600 --> 53:16.160 Everybody's gonna do but but even more importantly notice this it's whatever King a hazardous does 53:17.200 --> 53:18.880 Everyone will do 53:18.880 --> 53:26.200 Pay attention to the story. It is not whatever Vashti does that everyone will do it's how King a hazardous reacts 53:26.760 --> 53:30.600 That everyone will do and they said hey, what are we gonna do to her? 53:31.200 --> 53:36.400 Because if you just let her do whatever she wants and walk all over you and you're a push over, 53:36.400 --> 53:39.200 then every single guy will be pushed over by his wife. 53:39.920 --> 53:44.880 Too much wrath, too much contempt, and he's like, hey, if you put her in her place, 53:44.880 --> 53:47.600 well, then we'll keep society together again. 53:47.800 --> 53:52.680 And so, you know, we need men that will not allow their wives to push them over, but will 53:52.680 --> 53:53.680 say no. 53:53.680 --> 53:57.040 Again, I'm not recommending his solution here. 53:57.040 --> 53:59.880 I'm not recommending because he puts his wife away and marries another, all right? 53:59.880 --> 54:00.880 I'm not recommending that. 54:00.880 --> 54:01.880 I'm not saying that's the right thing. 54:01.880 --> 54:06.760 And you have to understand the spiritual picture here of God's replacing Israel with New Testament 54:06.760 --> 54:08.840 Christianity and Christians, okay? 54:08.840 --> 54:10.900 That's why He allows for this story. 54:10.900 --> 54:15.780 But the principle is still a biblical principle that, hey, whatever the man does... 54:15.800 --> 54:20.200 by example, a leader, in many cases other people fall like soup. 54:20.700 --> 54:25.660 So it's very important when a wife does something against her husband that, hey, he puts her 54:25.660 --> 54:26.940 in his place, he corrects her. 54:26.940 --> 54:30.880 You know, the Bible says, for whom the Lord loveth, he correcteth even as a father the 54:30.880 --> 54:31.880 son whom he delights. 54:31.880 --> 54:33.840 You know, God corrects us because he loves us. 54:33.840 --> 54:36.220 And a husband should correct his wife because he loves her. 54:36.220 --> 54:37.220 Okay? 54:37.220 --> 54:40.420 Now, let's recap some of the things that we uncovered. 54:40.420 --> 54:43.840 Eve was wrong, he knew it, but he did it anyways. 54:43.840 --> 54:45.520 That's being a push over. 54:45.520 --> 54:47.580 Adam was not deceived, but he surrendered. 54:48.700 --> 54:54.860 You know, love will listen, but sometimes the headship or the leader will refuse. 54:54.860 --> 54:58.460 Job did not curse God as his wife prescribed. 54:58.460 --> 54:59.460 He told her no. 54:59.460 --> 55:00.700 And you know what? 55:00.700 --> 55:05.900 Job was better than Adam in that instance, in the sense that he has said, hey, you're 55:05.900 --> 55:09.900 talking like a foolish woman, and he corrected his wife, just like Adam should have said, 55:09.900 --> 55:11.220 hey, this is not right. 55:11.220 --> 55:12.900 Do not eat of the tree, and I'm not going to eat with you. 55:14.000 --> 55:19.680 Aab is an example of someone who allowed his wife to stir him up and push him over and 55:19.680 --> 55:24.280 cause him to do all kinds of evil, Solomon as well, turning his heart away from the things 55:24.280 --> 55:25.280 of God. 55:25.280 --> 55:30.880 You know, ruling is having rules for your house, and at the end of the day, you know, 55:30.880 --> 55:34.720 husbands need to be the ones who are deciding what church you're going to go to. 55:37.200 --> 55:41.200 I do not believe women should not be dragging their husbands to church. 55:41.200 --> 55:45.200 And of course if we allowed women to pick what churches and what pastors we would have, 55:45.200 --> 55:47.200 well it's going to be doomed. 55:47.500 --> 55:50.940 And you know, you go to the non-denominates, it's like, oh, there's so many women at this 55:50.940 --> 55:51.940 church. 55:51.940 --> 55:52.940 Yeah, because it's the non-denominates. 55:52.940 --> 55:55.580 Okay, it's not that men hate church. 55:55.580 --> 55:58.180 There's this idea that women are more spiritual than men. 55:58.180 --> 56:01.860 And again, historically, it is accurate that there's been often in many cases more women 56:01.860 --> 56:02.860 in church than men. 56:02.860 --> 56:05.160 I mean, even in American history. 56:05.160 --> 56:09.820 But I would argue that it's because the men are allowing their wives to drag them to bad 56:09.820 --> 56:10.820 churches. 56:10.820 --> 56:14.500 Because in cases where you have a good church, you almost see the exact opposite, where you 56:14.500 --> 56:15.500 have more men than women. 56:15.500 --> 56:20.740 and a ratio, whereas you have these weak, watered down, lame churches, the woman to 56:20.740 --> 56:22.380 man ratio is off the charts. 56:22.800 --> 56:27.360 And so we need men to be the ones that are deciding what church to go to. 56:27.360 --> 56:29.900 Women should go to the church of their husband's choice. 56:29.900 --> 56:35.600 The only exception I would put in that is, hey, if your husband's not saved or trying to take you to a church that has the wrong gospel, 56:35.600 --> 56:38.700 I believe a wife has the right to still go to the right church, okay? 56:38.700 --> 56:43.200 But if he's taking you to a church that's got right on the gospel and serving God, 56:43.200 --> 56:44.800 you go to the church with your husband. 56:44.800 --> 56:46.900 You're not supposed to be the spiritual leader. 56:46.900 --> 56:49.700 Another thing, if your wife... 56:50.000 --> 56:52.000 is soft on Lindsay Clancy. 56:52.000 --> 56:53.400 You need to correct that. 56:55.400 --> 56:57.700 Do not allow that to go unchecked. 56:57.700 --> 57:00.200 You need to have serious conversations with your wife. 57:00.200 --> 57:01.000 That's right. 57:01.000 --> 57:04.000 And you need to have constant conversations with your wife 57:04.000 --> 57:06.400 to reassure her why that is wrong, 57:06.400 --> 57:07.900 why that is not normal, 57:07.900 --> 57:09.400 why that is not natural, 57:09.400 --> 57:12.200 to encourage her to be protective of those kids. 57:12.200 --> 57:13.800 If she needs help from you, 57:13.800 --> 57:15.100 figure out a way to help her, 57:15.100 --> 57:16.500 but do not allow, 57:16.500 --> 57:19.600 if she feels sympathetic or empathetic towards this freak, 57:19.600 --> 57:21.700 disgusting, vile reprobate, 57:21.700 --> 57:23.400 you do not allow that. 57:23.400 --> 57:27.760 to go unchecked. You need to deal with that issue. And you tell her it's no it is not 57:27.760 --> 57:32.400 right to be empathetic towards this person. No it is not right to feel like it's okay 57:32.400 --> 57:36.600 for her to get off. You need to believe she needs the death penalty. And you need to love 57:36.600 --> 57:41.680 your children. And you need to realize that what she did is wicked as hell. Not excusing 57:41.680 --> 57:46.740 it. If you are dating a woman that is soft on this issue, you probably need to just immediately 57:46.740 --> 57:49.640 break the relationship. And tell her no. 57:51.100 --> 57:52.740 I mean, it's the mother of your children. 57:52.740 --> 57:56.700 I'll tell you, one of the number one requirements for me when dating was how my wife felt about 57:56.700 --> 57:58.780 children and how good of a mother she would be. 57:59.400 --> 58:05.200 And you know that was one of the main things I saw in her and I knew about her and she's a great mother and she loves children. 58:05.200 --> 58:08.700 That's one of the reasons why I love her so much is I love how much she loves children. 58:08.700 --> 58:14.900 A woman that thinks it's even kind of rational to murder her own children is someone that has problems, serious problems. 58:14.900 --> 58:18.800 I mean if you could get away from her and pray for her and she changes her mind completely, okay. 58:18.800 --> 58:21.600 But do not marry a woman that is confused on this issue. 58:22.900 --> 58:25.780 If you're already married, you're stuck, so you've got to fix the problem. 58:25.780 --> 58:30.500 But if you're not married, and I've heard, people have literally canceled weddings. 58:30.500 --> 58:31.500 And you know what? 58:31.500 --> 58:34.140 That's the, I can't blame them. 58:34.140 --> 58:39.340 If I had my wife that I'm about to marry is saying that it kind of makes sense or we need 58:39.340 --> 58:43.100 to defend Lindsey Clancy or whatever, any of this nonsense, like I would totally break 58:43.100 --> 58:45.980 off the relationship immediately. 58:45.980 --> 58:47.120 That is not acceptable. 58:47.120 --> 58:48.100 That is not normal. 58:48.400 --> 58:51.400 That is a demonic spirit and you need to say no to that. 58:51.400 --> 58:55.400 It's a feminist issue that we have in our country. 59:00.000 --> 59:03.000 And you know what, you need to correct your wife when she's out of bounds on issues. 59:03.000 --> 59:08.720 When it comes to, obviously, the Lindsay Clancy issue, you know, we as men and as a society 59:08.720 --> 59:11.400 need to tell her no and say that what she did was wrong. 59:11.400 --> 59:14.160 Insanity plea, no. 59:14.160 --> 59:17.600 Death penalty, yes. 59:17.600 --> 59:19.680 No mercy, no grace. 59:19.680 --> 59:21.360 You killed your kids, bye. 59:21.360 --> 59:22.360 We just need to tell her no. 59:22.360 --> 59:25.140 And we need to tell all the women that are out there 59:25.600 --> 59:28.800 screaming and yelling to go home and you're not allowed to even be here. 59:28.800 --> 59:29.600 Get away. 59:29.600 --> 59:30.600 Yeah. 59:30.600 --> 59:33.600 And all the women that are wanting to commit abortion, we need to tell them no. 59:33.600 --> 59:37.600 And all the women that are trying to vote, I'm saying no, all right? 59:37.600 --> 59:39.600 You know what? Hey, I'll just keep going. 59:39.600 --> 59:42.600 I'll go all the way back to the 1800s. 59:42.600 --> 59:43.600 They're like, we're not going back. 59:43.600 --> 59:45.600 Well, I'll try. 59:45.600 --> 59:46.600 Okay. 59:46.600 --> 59:48.600 So that's where I would take you. 59:48.600 --> 59:49.600 It's like, oh, I want third wave feminism. 59:49.600 --> 59:51.600 No, I want zero wave, okay? 59:51.600 --> 59:52.600 Zero of it. 59:53.800 --> 59:56.360 And it's like, oh, well, you're just so mean and impressive. 59:56.360 --> 59:57.240 No, no. 59:57.240 --> 59:58.160 You don't understand. 59:58.160 --> 59:59.600 If we go back to first wave, then we'll 59:59.600 --> 01:00:02.240 go to second, third, fourth, and we'll be back where we were. 01:00:02.240 --> 01:00:04.040 And we'll just keep going back to where we were. 01:00:04.040 --> 01:00:05.080 There's no such thing as like, let's just 01:00:05.080 --> 01:00:06.600 stay on second wave or something. 01:00:06.600 --> 01:00:07.000 Nope. 01:00:07.100 --> 01:00:09.540 And at the end of the day, that's why we're in the mess that we're in. 01:00:09.540 --> 01:00:13.740 In fact, the only way to even get communism is to have all these ways of feminism 01:00:13.740 --> 01:00:16.700 and to allow women to vote and allow to tear down the society 01:00:16.700 --> 01:00:19.460 and allow marriage to become the train wreck that it is 01:00:19.460 --> 01:00:22.180 and to have rampant fornication and adultery in our society 01:00:22.180 --> 01:00:24.820 and to have women that are willing to literally murder their own children 01:00:24.820 --> 01:00:26.860 and having women defend this kind of nonsense. 01:00:26.860 --> 01:00:30.340 That's what can lead to an actual communist revolution. 01:00:30.340 --> 01:00:33.140 If you didn't have those things, we'd be so far away from it 01:00:33.140 --> 01:00:34.340 that it's not possible. 01:00:34.900 --> 01:00:36.400 You know, that's the scary thing. 01:00:36.400 --> 01:00:37.700 I mean, look at Mexico as an example. 01:00:37.700 --> 01:00:39.900 I mean, they're headed down a dark path, folks. 01:00:39.900 --> 01:00:40.900 Yeah. 01:00:40.900 --> 01:00:41.500 And it's reality. 01:00:41.500 --> 01:00:45.500 There's nothing stopping America or another country like ours becoming communist. 01:00:45.500 --> 01:00:48.500 You know, I know you think that you're not going to be communist, 01:00:48.500 --> 01:00:50.300 but there's nothing in the Bible. 01:00:50.300 --> 01:00:51.900 There's nothing in End Times Bible prophecy. 01:00:51.900 --> 01:00:54.100 There's nothing saying that we won't become communist. 01:00:54.400 --> 01:00:55.800 Now, God willing, it won't. 01:00:55.800 --> 01:00:57.400 I don't believe we have to. 01:00:57.400 --> 01:00:59.700 And I sure as heck will fight against it. 01:00:59.700 --> 01:01:01.700 But I'm just telling you, you know what? 01:01:01.700 --> 01:01:03.800 The more we allow women to tell us what to do, 01:01:03.800 --> 01:01:05.400 the faster you get into communism. 01:01:05.400 --> 01:01:07.900 Yep, that's right. 01:01:07.900 --> 01:01:10.600 And, you know, let me explain something to you. 01:01:10.600 --> 01:01:13.200 Once communism's enrolled and it's rolled out 01:01:13.200 --> 01:01:15.700 and it's in full force, women aren't in charge. 01:01:15.700 --> 01:01:16.300 Nope. 01:01:16.400 --> 01:01:20.480 There's no women leading the communist train, okay? 01:01:20.480 --> 01:01:22.640 They were dragging you there, 01:01:22.640 --> 01:01:25.720 and they're gonna drop you off, and everybody's doomed. 01:01:25.720 --> 01:01:28.000 Okay, that's why you tell her no. 01:01:28.000 --> 01:01:29.320 She doesn't want communism. 01:01:29.320 --> 01:01:32.280 She doesn't realize it, but she doesn't want it, okay? 01:01:32.280 --> 01:01:34.960 It's like she doesn't want Islam. 01:01:34.960 --> 01:01:38.280 Like why are women okay with Islam coming into our country? 01:01:38.280 --> 01:01:40.320 Like do you really think you want Islam? 01:01:40.320 --> 01:01:42.000 Do you really want Sharia law? 01:01:42.100 --> 01:01:45.700 Do you really think you want a Muslim man to take care of you? 01:01:45.700 --> 01:01:48.100 It's insanity, folks, okay? 01:01:48.600 --> 01:01:50.400 Our world's lost, it's mine. 01:01:50.400 --> 01:01:53.000 Sometimes women need to be protected from themselves, okay? 01:01:53.000 --> 01:01:54.700 And protected from their bad ideas, 01:01:54.700 --> 01:01:56.440 and from their empathy for the devil. 01:01:56.440 --> 01:01:57.920 Their empathy for the serpent. 01:01:57.920 --> 01:01:59.360 It's like, don't talk to the serpent. 01:01:59.360 --> 01:02:00.360 The serpent's not gonna help you. 01:02:00.360 --> 01:02:02.720 The serpent doesn't want what's best for you, okay? 01:02:02.720 --> 01:02:06.000 Now, I'm gonna read a couple posts as well 01:02:06.000 --> 01:02:08.720 that kinda illustrate and undermine some of the points 01:02:08.720 --> 01:02:11.920 that I'm, or not undermine, but really illustrate, I guess, 01:02:11.920 --> 01:02:15.120 the points that I'm trying to articulate here, but. 01:02:15.500 --> 01:02:17.800 There was a post by a guy named Matt Wallace. 01:02:17.800 --> 01:02:19.800 Now, I'll be honest with you, I'm not a fan of Matt Wallace. 01:02:19.800 --> 01:02:20.800 I've brought him up many times. 01:02:20.800 --> 01:02:22.000 I've said that I don't really like him. 01:02:22.000 --> 01:02:24.800 And nothing's changed about that, okay? 01:02:24.800 --> 01:02:27.300 But at the end of the day, it's not that a Catholic can't, 01:02:27.300 --> 01:02:29.500 every once in a while, say the right thing, okay? 01:02:29.500 --> 01:02:31.600 Now, this is something that Matt Wallace said 01:02:31.600 --> 01:02:33.500 in some post online. 01:02:33.500 --> 01:02:34.100 I'm just gonna read it. 01:02:34.100 --> 01:02:36.700 A lot of people aren't gonna want to hear this, 01:02:36.700 --> 01:02:38.900 but much of the, quote, depression 01:02:38.900 --> 01:02:41.500 that parents, and not just moms, 01:02:41.500 --> 01:02:43.400 suffer after childbirth is due 01:02:43.400 --> 01:02:43.500 you 01:02:43.500 --> 01:02:46.100 not so much the hormones, but the fact that children, 01:02:46.100 --> 01:02:48.340 especially babies, are demanding and difficult 01:02:48.340 --> 01:02:50.420 and require us to subordinate our own needs 01:02:50.420 --> 01:02:51.540 and desires for their sake. 01:02:51.540 --> 01:02:53.300 The more selfish you are, 01:02:53.300 --> 01:02:55.540 the more of an adjustment it's going to be. 01:02:55.540 --> 01:02:59.640 Now again, obviously we could quibble over the fact 01:02:59.640 --> 01:03:02.340 of what is depression, how much is much, 01:03:02.340 --> 01:03:03.900 and some of these terms or whatever, 01:03:03.900 --> 01:03:04.780 but in general I'm like, 01:03:04.780 --> 01:03:06.100 I can't really argue with this statement. 01:03:06.100 --> 01:03:09.080 I think that our selfish culture is very selfish. 01:03:09.080 --> 01:03:10.700 We have a very me-centered... 01:03:11.500 --> 01:03:14.420 Society people are lovers of their own selves. I mean, that's what the Bible says 01:03:14.420 --> 01:03:17.380 I mean the Bible just says like in the end times it's gonna be a rampant 01:03:17.960 --> 01:03:21.680 Expansion of people being lovers of their own selves without natural affection 01:03:21.900 --> 01:03:26.320 Which again if you're not a lover yourself and you're full of natural affection 01:03:26.320 --> 01:03:28.540 You're really not gonna be complaining about your children very much 01:03:29.000 --> 01:03:33.140 And you know, for people that have never struggled to have a child or lost children, like, they 01:03:33.140 --> 01:03:38.400 just have so much more appreciation for their children and just the fact of having a child 01:03:38.400 --> 01:03:41.920 that it's just kind of unfathomable to have people complaining about the child they just 01:03:41.920 --> 01:03:42.920 got. 01:03:42.920 --> 01:03:45.420 I mean, can you imagine Hannah complaining about children after she's been barren for 01:03:45.420 --> 01:03:46.420 so long? 01:03:46.420 --> 01:03:49.240 You know, it's just kind of nonsense, it's silly. 01:03:49.240 --> 01:03:55.040 But obviously, in a self-centered, egotistical society where people are getting pregnant 01:03:55.040 --> 01:03:57.000 out of wedlock, having a child with them. 01:03:57.000 --> 01:04:00.860 seems awful and a burden and a consequence and a punishment and all this stuff. 01:04:00.860 --> 01:04:02.960 So then they basically try to demonize children. 01:04:02.960 --> 01:04:06.960 They demonize these ideas and they act like being a mom is terrible. 01:04:06.960 --> 01:04:09.400 Just like I illustrated in my sermon this morning, I'll repeat again. 01:04:09.400 --> 01:04:13.280 A mom coming out of a furniture store said that she was going to sooner drive her family 01:04:13.280 --> 01:04:17.120 off of a cliff than take them to a Ferris wheel. 01:04:17.120 --> 01:04:18.120 Like what? 01:04:18.120 --> 01:04:18.300 Thanks for watching! 01:04:18.700 --> 01:04:23.500 And again, this isn't even hyperbole in the sense that there are women who have done this nonsense. 01:04:23.500 --> 01:04:30.620 There are people who have done this kind of horrific, horrible stuff, which is not a normal thought. 01:04:30.620 --> 01:04:33.940 We should act, we should stop pretending like that's normal. 01:04:33.940 --> 01:04:36.580 It's normal for women to be emotional. 01:04:36.580 --> 01:04:38.900 It's normal for women to cry for no reason. 01:04:39.100 --> 01:04:46.300 It's normal for women to be upset, you know, over some minor thing that really doesn't matter at the end of the day. 01:04:46.300 --> 01:04:49.500 It's not normal for women to think about murdering their children. 01:04:49.500 --> 01:04:52.500 And I will never pretend like that is normal. 01:04:52.900 --> 01:04:54.900 It is possible for women to feel sad. 01:04:54.900 --> 01:04:58.400 It's normal for men and women to feel depressed. 01:04:58.400 --> 01:05:01.400 And of course, you know, statistically speaking, 01:05:01.400 --> 01:05:04.400 most women, after giving birth, for a short duration, 01:05:04.400 --> 01:05:06.900 experience what's called baby blues. 01:05:06.900 --> 01:05:09.400 This is different, though, than depression itself. 01:05:09.400 --> 01:05:12.400 This is considered a different diagnosis, okay? 01:05:12.400 --> 01:05:15.400 And again, the baby blues would just be simply the fact that 01:05:15.400 --> 01:05:18.900 when you feel sad, because of normal reasons of being sad, 01:05:18.900 --> 01:05:20.900 you're more sad than you would normally be. 01:05:20.900 --> 01:05:26.020 You know, it's just like, you know, whatever you spilled a little bit of coffee or something. 01:05:26.600 --> 01:05:29.200 And it's like, normally you'd just be like, oh, bummer. 01:05:29.300 --> 01:05:32.700 But it's like, literally, like you lost a child or something. 01:05:32.800 --> 01:05:34.100 You're so sad or whatever. 01:05:34.200 --> 01:05:37.500 And it's like, OK, that was an extreme emotional reaction. 01:05:37.600 --> 01:05:41.100 Like, you broke down and cried over some spilled milk. 01:05:41.200 --> 01:05:43.980 And normally, it's just like, no big deal, clean it up. 01:05:44.080 --> 01:05:47.320 Because, hey, your body's trying to regulate. 01:05:47.420 --> 01:05:50.040 You have more hormones than you would normally have. 01:05:50.140 --> 01:05:51.220 We get that. 01:05:51.320 --> 01:05:52.280 That's normal. 01:05:52.380 --> 01:05:53.380 But you know what? 01:05:53.480 --> 01:05:54.480 You're not going to spill a little bit of coffee. 01:05:54.600 --> 01:05:57.840 like I should now murder my children. 01:05:57.840 --> 01:06:01.320 And then blame that on being postpartum, 01:06:01.320 --> 01:06:05.040 or being, hey, having given child recently. 01:06:05.040 --> 01:06:08.440 This is not normal, this is not reality, okay? 01:06:08.440 --> 01:06:09.960 Now again, I also want to make this clear. 01:06:09.960 --> 01:06:12.800 Matt's post didn't say postpartum. 01:06:12.800 --> 01:06:14.240 No. 01:06:14.240 --> 01:06:17.280 It didn't identify only women, it said parents. 01:06:17.280 --> 01:06:18.120 Yeah. 01:06:18.120 --> 01:06:19.680 Not just moms. 01:06:19.680 --> 01:06:21.840 He said, I think there's a lot of dudes that are selfish. 01:06:21.840 --> 01:06:21.900 you 01:06:22.100 --> 01:06:26.100 And then, you know, people claim depression or whatever. 01:06:26.100 --> 01:06:29.100 Now, someone responded to this particular post. 01:06:29.100 --> 01:06:34.100 It was Cassandra McMurtry, who is the wife of Tommy McMurtry. 01:06:34.100 --> 01:06:39.100 And I just want to illustrate some things that she said in response to this particular post, 01:06:39.100 --> 01:06:45.100 because it's just gross what she said, and it was disrespectful to her husband. 01:06:45.200 --> 01:06:51.000 And, you know, again, in this particular post of Matt Walsh, he claims that she doesn't like it, she disagrees with it, 01:06:51.000 --> 01:06:55.400 she thinks that Matt doesn't know what he's talking about because he's never actually been a woman. 01:06:55.400 --> 01:06:56.600 Which, really? 01:06:58.000 --> 01:06:58.600 Okay. 01:06:59.000 --> 01:07:01.800 Did he make, like, a whole documentary about that? Yeah, I get it. Okay. 01:07:03.800 --> 01:07:09.200 But at the end of the day, like, you know, I think that men can still speak on these issues, 01:07:09.200 --> 01:07:12.200 regardless of how many burns they've had, okay? 01:07:12.200 --> 01:07:14.600 And we get it, we're at a net zero, all right? 01:07:14.600 --> 01:07:21.000 But at the end of the day, like, this was one of the comments that she made about Matt Wallace's post, 01:07:21.000 --> 01:07:26.000 maybe men should just keep silent about things they know nothing about, maybe just maybe. 01:07:26.600 --> 01:07:29.000 Now, I want to reiterate what he said. 01:07:29.000 --> 01:07:32.400 He said that much of the depression that parents 01:07:32.400 --> 01:07:35.520 and not just moms suffer after childbirth. 01:07:35.520 --> 01:07:38.080 Okay, here's the thing, Matt Walsh has six children. 01:07:38.400 --> 01:07:42.960 How can Matt Walsh not speak about what it's like to be a parent having children? 01:07:42.960 --> 01:07:46.720 And not only that, Matt Walsh has two sets of twins, which I'll just be honest with you, 01:07:46.720 --> 01:07:51.200 I've never had twins, but from everybody's experience, having twins is way harder 01:07:51.200 --> 01:07:57.440 than just having one as far as emotionally, the pregnancy. I mean, you know, just having one baby 01:07:57.440 --> 01:08:00.960 screaming is enough. I can't imagine it being duplicated. You know, I can't imagine just like, 01:08:00.960 --> 01:08:05.920 what do you do? Like, I don't know. Like it seems, it seems a little bit intimidating, you know. 01:08:06.400 --> 01:08:09.800 I think I could see a parent having six children, 01:08:09.800 --> 01:08:11.040 two sets of twins, 01:08:11.040 --> 01:08:14.040 that maybe they know what it's like to have children. 01:08:14.040 --> 01:08:16.680 Maybe they know what it's like to have hard nights 01:08:16.680 --> 01:08:17.800 and sleepless nights. 01:08:17.800 --> 01:08:19.680 I mean, if you are a parent for the first time, 01:08:19.680 --> 01:08:22.080 you're gonna have nights where you don't sleep very much. 01:08:22.080 --> 01:08:24.480 You're gonna have that sleep deprivation cycle potentially, 01:08:24.480 --> 01:08:25.520 even men. 01:08:25.520 --> 01:08:27.200 Yes, we go through it too. 01:08:27.200 --> 01:08:29.800 And yeah, I don't have the same hormones as my wife. 01:08:29.800 --> 01:08:30.720 That'll never happen. 01:08:30.720 --> 01:08:31.540 But you know what? 01:08:31.540 --> 01:08:34.400 I can still go through, you know, low points or have the- 01:08:34.400 --> 01:08:36.160 sleep deprivation or have these issues. 01:08:36.160 --> 01:08:37.160 But you know what? 01:08:37.160 --> 01:08:41.920 At no point are either of us thinking like, hey, let's murder the children. 01:08:41.920 --> 01:08:44.760 Hey, let's do this kind of nonsense. 01:08:44.760 --> 01:08:45.840 That's silly. 01:08:45.840 --> 01:08:48.360 That's not even what a normal person would do. 01:08:48.360 --> 01:08:53.360 I would argue that when you're having a hormone spike, it's just taking who you are and making 01:08:53.360 --> 01:08:54.520 it a little bit exaggerated. 01:08:55.000 --> 01:08:57.000 So if you're happy, you're just really happy. 01:08:57.000 --> 01:08:58.500 If you're sad, you're really sad. 01:08:58.500 --> 01:09:00.000 If you're angry, you're really angry. 01:09:00.000 --> 01:09:03.500 You know, if you're selfish, you're even more selfish, right? 01:09:03.500 --> 01:09:07.500 You just, whatever you're like, on hormones, going crazy, 01:09:07.500 --> 01:09:10.500 you're typically just a little bit more of that. 01:09:10.500 --> 01:09:13.500 But you know what? If you're a non-murderer, 01:09:13.500 --> 01:09:16.000 you're going to continue having non-murder thoughts. 01:09:16.700 --> 01:09:21.700 If you are a murderous person, well, then maybe they're going to be even more exaggerated. 01:09:21.700 --> 01:09:24.700 But let me tell you something, it's coming from an evil heart of murder. 01:09:24.700 --> 01:09:27.700 It's not coming out of nowhere. 01:09:27.700 --> 01:09:30.700 Okay, it's evil people doing evil things. 01:09:30.700 --> 01:09:34.700 And again, obviously taking drugs can have the same effect. 01:09:34.700 --> 01:09:37.700 Drugs don't really make you a completely different person. 01:09:37.700 --> 01:09:38.700 In general... 01:09:39.100 --> 01:09:42.400 But what it will do is it will take away your inhibitions. 01:09:42.400 --> 01:09:44.200 It will take some of your good judgment away. 01:09:44.200 --> 01:09:48.400 It'll cause you to act without morals and without a moral framework. 01:09:48.400 --> 01:09:51.100 And in some cases it can cause you to do things that you're unaware of. 01:09:51.100 --> 01:09:54.400 Maybe you're just not really in your capacity. 01:09:54.400 --> 01:09:57.200 But it's not going to just make you a completely different person. 01:09:57.200 --> 01:09:58.700 It's not going to make me a Muslim. 01:09:59.300 --> 01:10:03.300 Taking drugs. You know, and look, I'll be honest with you, I know people that have, 01:10:03.300 --> 01:10:07.140 they were smoking marijuana regularly, I've never done it, but they were smoking marijuana 01:10:07.140 --> 01:10:11.940 regularly, and they were saying, oh, that caused me to be a pedophile and literally molest somebody. 01:10:11.940 --> 01:10:12.440 Wow. 01:10:12.980 --> 01:10:14.660 And I'm like, bro, that's not how it works. 01:10:15.780 --> 01:10:19.620 Okay, you might have been like, hey, let's go to Allsup's and get a burrito at midnight. 01:10:21.200 --> 01:10:28.600 You might have like, slept in, or you might have slept in weird clothes, or slept in a weird place, or you might have done something stupid. 01:10:28.600 --> 01:10:31.800 You might have actually injured yourself with heavy machinery. 01:10:31.800 --> 01:10:33.300 You might have done something weird. 01:10:33.300 --> 01:10:36.300 But you know what? You're not gonna do... you're not gonna become a pedophile. 01:10:36.300 --> 01:10:39.700 You know, it's not like, oops, I took drugs, now I'm a pedophile. 01:10:39.700 --> 01:10:45.900 Oops. You know, it's like this Alex Jones thing, where he says that they turn frogs gay with chemicals or something. 01:10:46.900 --> 01:10:49.200 And I've heard people say, this is the explanation for Duke. 01:10:49.200 --> 01:10:53.200 Look, you can pump me with every chemical you want and I'll never be a faggot, okay? 01:10:53.200 --> 01:10:55.200 Let me just make that clear. 01:10:55.200 --> 01:10:57.200 Alright? 01:10:57.200 --> 01:10:59.200 Because it's not how it works. 01:10:59.200 --> 01:11:08.200 And look, I get that people on these mind-altering drugs can sleepwalk and do harmful things that they're kind of unaware of, 01:11:08.200 --> 01:11:12.200 but you know what? They're not doing premeditated murder. 01:11:12.200 --> 01:11:13.700 It's not happening. 01:11:13.900 --> 01:11:17.860 Now, maybe if they were already premeditating on it, it could encourage them and lower their 01:11:17.860 --> 01:11:19.580 inhibitions to do it. 01:11:19.580 --> 01:11:22.500 But let me tell you something, they, somewhere in that heart, they were already wanting to 01:11:22.500 --> 01:11:23.500 do that. 01:11:23.500 --> 01:11:24.500 Yep. 01:11:24.500 --> 01:11:25.500 I don't, I don't believe this for one second. 01:11:25.500 --> 01:11:28.460 You can believe whatever you want, but you know, you woke up, you came into St. Fast 01:11:28.460 --> 01:11:30.380 Baptist Church, right? 01:11:30.380 --> 01:11:34.100 Here's another thing that she said is that she said, uh, 01:11:35.200 --> 01:11:40.560 To say that much of the depression of the postpartum period is due to selfishness is rejecting the entire biology and makeup of woman 01:11:40.880 --> 01:11:45.360 Again, i'm not going to comment too much on this because frankly speaking his post didn't even bring up postpartum 01:11:45.760 --> 01:11:52.160 Okay, but why why does a woman get to get the ability to just get up and say men shouldn't even talk about 01:11:52.700 --> 01:11:57.520 postpartum or depression or childbirth or any of these issues like 01:11:58.320 --> 01:12:00.100 That's not what the bible says 01:12:00.500 --> 01:12:05.260 Genesis 3 we already read it said that God was going to multiply the sorrow and conception. That's God talking about pregnancy 01:12:05.260 --> 01:12:10.140 Yeah, go to John 16 if you would go to John chapter 16. Let's see what the Bible says on these things 01:12:10.580 --> 01:12:14.580 Now in a separate video. She also put out talking about 01:12:15.180 --> 01:12:21.620 Just this Lindsey Clancy issue and just this kind of somewhat related topic is that she said 01:12:22.020 --> 01:12:24.340 Hey, I've always been for traditional gender roles 01:12:25.000 --> 01:12:27.200 I'm all for the husband being the provider and protector. 01:12:27.200 --> 01:12:29.200 My husband's been the sole provider and he's been our protector. 01:12:29.200 --> 01:12:31.100 She also said that she's not a feminist. 01:12:31.100 --> 01:12:32.100 Okay. 01:12:32.100 --> 01:12:33.500 That's fine. 01:12:33.500 --> 01:12:35.000 Like, all those things are good, but you know what? 01:12:35.000 --> 01:12:36.100 You can't have your cake and eat it, too. 01:12:36.100 --> 01:12:38.100 You can't say, hey, I want my husband to be the sole provider, 01:12:38.100 --> 01:12:39.800 take care of me, protect me, and all these things. 01:12:39.800 --> 01:12:42.200 But then simultaneously, and say you're not a feminist, 01:12:42.200 --> 01:12:45.700 well, then simultaneously championing for women to have equal rights, 01:12:45.700 --> 01:12:48.800 for women to basically be able to speak on any issue that they want, 01:12:48.800 --> 01:12:50.200 tell men to shut up. 01:12:50.200 --> 01:12:52.600 Like, that's incompatible. That's contradiction. 01:12:53.500 --> 01:12:57.900 That's a woman sitting herself up in a high place in the city, just making a clamorous sound. 01:12:57.900 --> 01:12:58.400 Yeah. 01:12:58.400 --> 01:12:58.900 Yeah. 01:12:58.900 --> 01:12:59.400 Yep. 01:12:59.400 --> 01:13:01.100 Here's another quote. 01:13:01.100 --> 01:13:05.400 So if we are acknowledging that postpartum hormones exist, and they do, 01:13:05.400 --> 01:13:07.700 I have always acknowledged that. 01:13:07.700 --> 01:13:10.800 And that is why I think men need to just shut up about it, 01:13:10.800 --> 01:13:13.300 because they've never been through it. 01:13:13.300 --> 01:13:15.300 They've never acknowledged it. 01:13:15.300 --> 01:13:16.100 What? 01:13:16.100 --> 01:13:18.000 So men have never acknowledged? 01:13:18.300 --> 01:13:19.760 This? What are you talking about? 01:13:19.760 --> 01:13:23.800 And it's silly and stupid to even try to pretend like they don't exist. 01:13:23.800 --> 01:13:27.020 Who's pretending like they don't exist? 01:13:27.020 --> 01:13:29.660 It doesn't mean that you're not in control of how you act when you go through these things, 01:13:29.660 --> 01:13:32.300 but men also need to realize that they do exist. 01:13:32.300 --> 01:13:34.460 Well, okay, honey, let me explain something to you. 01:13:34.460 --> 01:13:36.660 Men understand they exist. 01:13:36.660 --> 01:13:40.060 I guarantee every man that's ever been married 01:13:40.060 --> 01:13:41.860 realized that their wife can be hormonal. 01:13:41.860 --> 01:13:45.020 I'm just going to tell you, I have a sneaking suspicion. 01:13:45.300 --> 01:13:48.300 that they've all realized that women can be hormonal. 01:13:48.300 --> 01:13:49.300 Alright? 01:13:49.300 --> 01:13:51.300 And I guarantee after childbirth, 01:13:51.300 --> 01:13:54.300 they realize something's different. 01:13:58.300 --> 01:13:59.300 Okay? 01:13:59.300 --> 01:14:01.300 Whether they can spell it or not, 01:14:01.300 --> 01:14:03.300 they knew what postpartum is, honey. 01:14:03.300 --> 01:14:04.000 Okay? 01:14:04.600 --> 01:14:09.720 Silly they're they've never acknowledged it. What are you talking about? Okay, then she said quote 01:14:09.720 --> 01:14:16.800 My husband has never even tried to talk about women's issues because he has no idea and he knows 01:14:17.240 --> 01:14:21.760 He has no idea who's telling him. He doesn't know about it. You know, it's like good night 01:14:22.760 --> 01:14:25.980 It's just this is this you know, this is it's disrespectful 01:14:27.000 --> 01:14:31.000 It's disrespectful to say, my husband's not allowed to talk about postpartum. 01:14:31.000 --> 01:14:33.200 My husband's not allowed to talk about pregnancy. 01:14:33.200 --> 01:14:35.100 My husband's not allowed to talk about hormones. 01:14:35.100 --> 01:14:37.100 My husband's not allowed to have an opinion in this area. 01:14:37.100 --> 01:14:38.700 You know, that's disrespectful to men. 01:14:38.700 --> 01:14:40.300 It's disrespectful to her husband. And you know what? 01:14:40.300 --> 01:14:42.100 Her husband should say, no, you're not allowed to say that. 01:14:42.100 --> 01:14:44.100 Right. 01:14:44.100 --> 01:14:46.400 Look at John 16 verse 21. 01:14:46.400 --> 01:14:50.800 Here's the Lord Jesus Christ talking about women. 01:14:50.800 --> 01:14:53.300 Look at John chapter 16 verse 21. 01:14:54.200 --> 01:14:57.200 A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow. 01:14:57.200 --> 01:15:00.800 How dare he, you know, talk about women's issues, 01:15:00.800 --> 01:15:02.000 because their hour has come. 01:15:02.000 --> 01:15:03.680 But as soon as she is delivered to the child, 01:15:03.680 --> 01:15:05.360 she remembereth no more the anguish, 01:15:05.360 --> 01:15:07.300 for joy that a man is born in the world. 01:15:07.300 --> 01:15:09.780 How dare he say what my experience is gonna be like 01:15:09.780 --> 01:15:10.940 when I give birth. 01:15:10.940 --> 01:15:12.480 He doesn't know me. 01:15:12.480 --> 01:15:14.540 He doesn't know my experience. 01:15:14.540 --> 01:15:16.700 How dare he say that I'm supposed to feel better 01:15:16.700 --> 01:15:19.500 after childbirth, because I didn't feel better. 01:15:19.500 --> 01:15:21.900 You know, he doesn't know that I have PPD. 01:15:22.400 --> 01:15:27.180 Well, that's Jesus saying that hey, a lot of times women feel better after they give 01:15:27.180 --> 01:15:29.840 birth because it's real. 01:15:29.840 --> 01:15:35.000 Now again, is this saying that she's not going to experience postpartum depression or postpartum 01:15:35.000 --> 01:15:38.640 issues or baby blues or all this other stuff in the weeks after? 01:15:38.640 --> 01:15:39.640 No. 01:15:39.640 --> 01:15:40.640 But you know what? 01:15:40.640 --> 01:15:42.680 This is a guy talking about women's issues. 01:15:42.680 --> 01:15:46.720 Let's go to Leviticus chapter 12 for a moment and see if the Bible talks about women's issues 01:15:46.720 --> 01:15:47.220 or not. 01:15:47.800 --> 01:15:54.700 And if men talk about women's issues or not, you know, in first Timothy chapter two, the Bible says that she should be saved in childbearing. 01:15:54.700 --> 01:15:59.680 That's men talking about, hey, you know what you need, honey, you need another pregnancy. That's what you need. 01:15:59.680 --> 01:16:03.860 You need another birth. You need another child. Well, how dare he? 01:16:03.860 --> 01:16:11.060 He doesn't know how I feel. He doesn't know what I experienced. I get that we can never experience it. 01:16:11.060 --> 01:16:13.740 But, you know, I don't have to experience something. 01:16:14.100 --> 01:16:16.100 to have rules and laws about it. 01:16:16.100 --> 01:16:21.100 Experience can be a good teacher, but you know what? 01:16:21.100 --> 01:16:23.100 Not experiencing things can also be a good teacher. 01:16:23.100 --> 01:16:24.100 Do you think it's fair for me to get up and say, 01:16:24.100 --> 01:16:27.100 don't do drugs when I've never done drugs? 01:16:27.100 --> 01:16:29.100 Well, you don't know what it's like, Pastor Shelley. 01:16:29.100 --> 01:16:30.100 How do you know? 01:16:30.100 --> 01:16:31.100 You've never smoked marijuana. 01:16:31.100 --> 01:16:32.100 How do you know what it's like? 01:16:32.100 --> 01:16:34.100 I don't, but don't do it. 01:16:34.100 --> 01:16:36.100 I've never done LSD. 01:16:37.100 --> 01:16:38.900 There's a lot of things I've never done. 01:16:38.900 --> 01:16:40.220 I've never eaten Indian food. 01:16:40.220 --> 01:16:41.060 Okay. 01:16:41.060 --> 01:16:43.900 Now again, people are telling me it's awesome. 01:16:43.900 --> 01:16:44.740 Go for it. 01:16:44.740 --> 01:16:47.500 I love you brother. 01:16:47.500 --> 01:16:48.540 But at the end of the day, 01:16:48.540 --> 01:16:51.940 I can choose whatever I'm gonna do and whatever I like. 01:16:51.940 --> 01:16:53.020 At the end of the day, 01:16:53.020 --> 01:16:58.020 it doesn't matter what experiences you go through or not. 01:16:58.420 --> 01:16:59.260 You know what's right? 01:16:59.260 --> 01:17:00.080 The Bible. 01:17:01.100 --> 01:17:05.020 because, you know, I could be wrong about an experience, but I can't be wrong about 01:17:05.020 --> 01:17:06.840 what the Bible's saying. 01:17:06.840 --> 01:17:10.540 I can be wrong about a personal opinion, I can't be wrong about what the Bible's saying. 01:17:10.540 --> 01:17:14.660 And look, the Bible talks about women's issues and these particular issues, and here's the 01:17:14.660 --> 01:17:18.680 thing, as a husband, you know, we're going to experience all the same things just from 01:17:18.680 --> 01:17:19.680 our viewpoint. 01:17:19.680 --> 01:17:22.060 Shouldn't we be able to speak about it from our viewpoint? 01:17:22.400 --> 01:17:24.400 and what we've seen and what we've gone through. 01:17:24.400 --> 01:17:26.960 Let alone, let me explain something to you. 01:17:26.960 --> 01:17:28.800 If you're going to say men can't talk about these issues, 01:17:28.800 --> 01:17:33.600 so you're telling me that no male doctors can ever see a woman patient ever again on any of these issues? 01:17:34.100 --> 01:17:38.660 Are you saying that men can't pass any laws regarding abortion? 01:17:38.660 --> 01:17:40.580 Because that's what the feminist agenda is. 01:17:40.580 --> 01:17:42.420 You don't know what it's like to have a child. 01:17:42.420 --> 01:17:44.020 You don't know what it's like to give birth. 01:17:44.020 --> 01:17:47.540 Therefore, you cannot legislate whether abortion is legal or not. 01:17:47.540 --> 01:17:50.980 You can't decide what kind of medications we can be on. 01:17:50.980 --> 01:17:52.820 You can't decide what pills we can take. 01:17:52.820 --> 01:17:57.060 That is the number one feminist talking point of today's culture. 01:17:57.780 --> 01:18:02.100 Is saying my body, my choice, and saying men can't tell me and they can't legislate. 01:18:02.100 --> 01:18:03.100 and they can't do whatever. 01:18:03.100 --> 01:18:05.900 I mean, that's the whole talking point. 01:18:05.900 --> 01:18:09.700 Why do you have your wife getting up and speaking like a feminist? 01:18:09.700 --> 01:18:11.580 Speaking like a foolish woman. 01:18:11.580 --> 01:18:13.300 She tell her no. 01:18:13.300 --> 01:18:16.400 Instead of her telling you that you're not allowed to talk about it, you should say she's 01:18:16.400 --> 01:18:18.620 not allowed to talk about it. 01:18:18.620 --> 01:18:19.620 That's what should be happening. 01:18:19.620 --> 01:18:21.620 Leviticus chapter 12, look at verse number 1. 01:18:22.500 --> 01:18:24.900 And the Lord is speaking to Moses, saying, speaking to the children of Israel, saying, 01:18:24.900 --> 01:18:29.940 if a woman have conceived seed and born a man child, then she shall be unclean seven 01:18:29.940 --> 01:18:30.940 days. 01:18:30.940 --> 01:18:34.660 According to the days of the separation for her infirmity, shall she be unclean. 01:18:35.000 --> 01:18:40.040 and the eighth day of the flesh of his foreskin shall be circumcised, and she shall then continue 01:18:40.040 --> 01:18:44.920 in the blood of her purifying three and thirty days. She shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come 01:18:44.920 --> 01:18:49.560 into the sanctuary until the days of her purifying be fulfilled. But if she bear a made child, 01:18:49.560 --> 01:18:54.440 then she shall be uncleaned two weeks as in her separation, and she shall continue in the blood 01:18:54.440 --> 01:18:56.520 of her purifying three score and six days. 01:18:56.900 --> 01:19:01.580 The priest is literally prescribing how long and what you're going to do after your birth. 01:19:01.580 --> 01:19:03.660 This is like your postpartum care. 01:19:04.300 --> 01:19:05.900 By the priest, by the man of God. 01:19:05.900 --> 01:19:08.100 Oh, women, men shouldn't talk about this. 01:19:08.100 --> 01:19:09.700 Men have no opinion. 01:19:09.700 --> 01:19:11.300 They're not allowed to talk about these issues. 01:19:11.300 --> 01:19:13.600 I mean, the Bible has the priest literally prescribing 01:19:13.600 --> 01:19:15.000 how long they're going to do things, 01:19:15.000 --> 01:19:17.100 what their purifying is going to be like, what their ritual. 01:19:17.100 --> 01:19:18.600 Look, is it saying to the men are getting up 01:19:18.600 --> 01:19:20.200 and say what it's like and the experience? 01:19:20.200 --> 01:19:21.400 No, of course not. 01:19:21.400 --> 01:19:24.800 But it's silly to say men cannot speak on these issues 01:19:24.800 --> 01:19:27.700 or to say, hey, men can't have an opinion on these issues. 01:19:27.700 --> 01:19:29.800 Men should be able to have an opinion on every issue. 01:19:30.500 --> 01:19:35.900 And you know what? If those posts and those videos stay up, then Tommy has already chosen who speaks for their household. 01:19:35.900 --> 01:19:44.200 And any man who continues to accept that, that he knows nothing and stays silent, has surrendered the headship of his household. 01:19:44.200 --> 01:19:50.500 And you know what? It's wicked and it's being a pushover, and we shouldn't have men that are pushovers. 01:19:50.500 --> 01:19:58.300 I will not allow my wife to get up and publicly humiliate me, publicly disrespect me, publicly do these things, and not correct it. 01:19:59.000 --> 01:20:03.480 And look, if a pastor's wife does something that's inappropriate or makes a mistake, 01:20:03.480 --> 01:20:09.320 hey, fix it and move on. Okay? But do not allow it to go like a vastly situation and then just all 01:20:09.320 --> 01:20:13.480 this contempt and all this stuff arise where all the wives and the church are going to say, 01:20:13.480 --> 01:20:17.640 you can't talk to me about this issue, you don't know, you better not talk about it, 01:20:17.640 --> 01:20:22.280 how dare you, men need to just shut up. You just sound like a rabid feminist. 01:20:23.700 --> 01:20:25.000 Now, go to 1 Corinthians 10. 01:20:25.000 --> 01:20:27.340 I'm just going to make two points quickly beyond this. 01:20:27.340 --> 01:20:30.540 But number one, we need men to tell wives no. 01:20:30.540 --> 01:20:31.780 That's the most important issue. 01:20:31.780 --> 01:20:35.740 Number two, you know, we need Christian universities 01:20:35.740 --> 01:20:38.940 to not sell Islamic meat. 01:20:38.940 --> 01:20:40.180 Yeah. 01:20:40.180 --> 01:20:45.380 Baylor University here in Texas is now creating a dining option 01:20:45.380 --> 01:20:50.500 on their campus for halal meat to accommodate radical Muslims. 01:20:50.500 --> 01:20:51.100 Wow. 01:20:52.400 --> 01:20:54.900 It's a news article just came out. 01:20:54.900 --> 01:21:02.640 Baylor, which was started as a Baptist college, a Baptist university, and it brands itself 01:21:02.640 --> 01:21:05.940 as trying to bring Baptists in and Christians. 01:21:05.940 --> 01:21:09.520 It's gone broader, of course, over time because they always have to compromise some. 01:21:09.520 --> 01:21:12.900 Now bring in the Muslims! 01:21:12.900 --> 01:21:16.320 Not only bring in the Muslims, we're not even going to try to evangelize you. 01:21:16.320 --> 01:21:18.040 We'll feed you your meat. 01:21:18.300 --> 01:21:23.300 that's offered in sacrifice and slaughter to Allah, which is a false god. 01:21:23.300 --> 01:21:24.300 Wow. 01:21:24.300 --> 01:21:26.300 Which is contrary to the literal Bible. 01:21:26.300 --> 01:21:28.300 This is wicked. 01:21:28.300 --> 01:21:29.300 This is crazy. 01:21:29.300 --> 01:21:31.300 You know what you just say? 01:21:31.300 --> 01:21:32.300 No! 01:21:32.300 --> 01:21:38.300 Oh, Muslims want you to accommodate their special request of meat sacrifice to their false god. 01:21:38.300 --> 01:21:40.300 That should be an easy no. 01:21:40.300 --> 01:21:43.300 In fact, it should be a hell no, if you ask me. 01:21:43.300 --> 01:21:44.300 What in the world? 01:21:45.000 --> 01:21:49.300 1 Corinthians chapter 10, look at verse 20. 01:21:49.300 --> 01:21:51.600 But I say that the things that the Gentiles sacrificed, 01:21:51.600 --> 01:21:54.740 they sacrificed to devils and not to God. 01:21:54.740 --> 01:21:57.480 And I would not that you should have fellowship with devils. 01:21:57.480 --> 01:22:00.340 You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of devils. 01:22:00.340 --> 01:22:02.320 You cannot be retakers of the Lord's table 01:22:02.320 --> 01:22:03.780 and of the table of devils. 01:22:03.780 --> 01:22:06.520 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? 01:22:06.520 --> 01:22:08.280 Are we stronger than He? 01:22:08.600 --> 01:22:11.840 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient. 01:22:11.840 --> 01:22:14.160 All things are lawful for me, but all things edify not. 01:22:14.160 --> 01:22:16.920 Let no man seek his own, but every man another man's wealth. 01:22:16.920 --> 01:22:21.360 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, that eat, asking no question for conscience sake. 01:22:21.360 --> 01:22:23.600 For the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof. 01:22:23.600 --> 01:22:27.520 If any of them that believe not, bid you to feast, and you be disposed to go, 01:22:27.520 --> 01:22:31.160 whatsoever is sold before you eat, asking no question for conscience sake. 01:22:31.160 --> 01:22:36.440 But if any man say unto you, this is offered, and sacrifice unto idols, 01:22:36.600 --> 01:22:41.600 eat not for his sake that showed it, and for conscience sake, for the earth is the Lord's 01:22:41.600 --> 01:22:45.560 and the fullness thereof. Conscience I say not thine own, but of the other, for why is 01:22:45.560 --> 01:22:50.040 my liberty judged of another man's conscience?" So what is he saying here? He's saying, look, 01:22:50.040 --> 01:22:55.480 if a Muslim says, hey, eat this meat with me and sacrifice to Allah, I'm going to say, 01:22:55.480 --> 01:23:01.440 no! Why? For his conscience. To say, hey, this is a false god and I will not partake 01:23:01.440 --> 01:23:03.560 with you and eating meat to a false god. 01:23:03.560 --> 01:23:04.480 You need to realize, you need to... 01:23:04.600 --> 01:23:08.400 convert and become a Christian. 01:23:08.400 --> 01:23:12.760 Now look, if a Christian eats meat, sacrifices it to Allah, 01:23:12.760 --> 01:23:15.100 and they don't know about it, it can't harm them. 01:23:15.200 --> 01:23:19.600 There's nothing about the meat changes biologically. 01:23:19.600 --> 01:23:22.240 It's not transubstantiation up here. 01:23:22.240 --> 01:23:26.080 It's not turning into Allah's blood or something like that. 01:23:26.080 --> 01:23:29.760 It's not turning into Allah's body because he's not even real, number one. 01:23:29.760 --> 01:23:34.560 Number two, even if he was real, it's not changing, but it's not real. 01:23:34.560 --> 01:23:35.440 It's not changing. 01:23:35.440 --> 01:23:40.080 It's still the exact same meat, the same chemistry, the same biology, everything. 01:23:40.080 --> 01:23:42.320 But here's the thing, there's a spiritual connotation to it. 01:23:43.400 --> 01:23:46.640 And God will judge the person who is eating meat sacrificed 01:23:46.640 --> 01:23:48.680 unto idols, knowingly doing so. 01:23:48.680 --> 01:23:49.120 Yeah. 01:23:49.120 --> 01:23:49.880 OK. 01:23:49.880 --> 01:23:53.160 You can unknowingly eat it all day long, no problem, 01:23:53.160 --> 01:23:54.280 what the Bible says. 01:23:54.280 --> 01:23:57.800 So it's like, if I go over to Jafar's house or whatever, 01:23:57.800 --> 01:24:01.640 and he giving me tacos, I'm just going to eat them. 01:24:01.640 --> 01:24:03.840 Literally, the Bible's saying, don't even ask. 01:24:03.840 --> 01:24:04.840 It says, don't ask. 01:24:04.840 --> 01:24:05.520 Just eat it. 01:24:05.520 --> 01:24:06.300 OK? 01:24:06.400 --> 01:24:08.000 Don't ask, don't tell, all right? 01:24:08.000 --> 01:24:09.960 This is applied to the Muslim food. 01:24:09.960 --> 01:24:12.880 But here's the thing, if they say this has been sacrificed, 01:24:12.880 --> 01:24:15.120 this is halal, which, what is halal? 01:24:15.120 --> 01:24:16.800 Is basically they took the animal, 01:24:16.800 --> 01:24:19.320 it has to meet certain cleanliness standards, 01:24:19.320 --> 01:24:21.760 then they basically point the head towards Mecca. 01:24:22.000 --> 01:24:27.360 and they have to slit the throat of the animal while pronouncing a blessing in the name of Allah 01:24:27.360 --> 01:24:34.480 and then it's then it's considered halal okay so it has to be ritually killed in this spiritual 01:24:35.000 --> 01:24:41.160 way. And again, I've watched the videos. They have slaughterhouses where they have a Islamic 01:24:41.160 --> 01:24:46.140 priest or whatever, someone sanctioned by their mosque or whatever, they're reciting their 01:24:46.140 --> 01:24:50.440 prayers to Allah while they slaughter the animals to make sure that they meet their 01:24:50.440 --> 01:24:57.340 halal standards. That's what halal meat is, okay? It's not kosher. It's halal. Halalala. 01:24:57.340 --> 01:25:01.320 That's the kind of meat that they have, all right? Of course, it's a jihad sacrifice or 01:25:01.320 --> 01:25:01.720 whatever, right? 01:25:02.900 --> 01:25:04.740 But here's the thing, I won't eat it. 01:25:04.740 --> 01:25:05.740 Yeah. 01:25:05.740 --> 01:25:10.060 Now again, maybe I've eaten it and I didn't know, but I would never eat it on purpose. 01:25:10.060 --> 01:25:14.660 And you know what, Christians should not eat this and Christians who refuse this and Baylor, 01:25:14.660 --> 01:25:17.940 everybody that's an alum of Baylor or gives money to them should say, I'm refusing to 01:25:17.940 --> 01:25:21.380 support you or fund you until you shut this down. 01:25:21.380 --> 01:25:22.380 That is wicked. 01:25:22.380 --> 01:25:30.100 It is evil for Baylor to sit here and to capitulate to a false God, to Islam, to Allah. 01:25:30.500 --> 01:25:32.500 I mean, just say no! 01:25:32.500 --> 01:25:35.000 We need Christians to say no and not be a push over. 01:25:35.000 --> 01:25:36.800 And of course, why are they pushed over for money? 01:25:36.800 --> 01:25:37.800 I guarantee it. 01:25:40.900 --> 01:25:45.300 Go with Leviticus chapter 20 if you would, Leviticus chapter 20. 01:25:45.300 --> 01:25:47.300 Here's the last point I'm going to make. 01:25:47.300 --> 01:25:50.100 And it's another pushover, it's Jeff Owens. 01:25:50.100 --> 01:25:54.500 Now, Jeff Owens was a pastor that was the president of 01:25:54.500 --> 01:26:01.000 Hiles Anderson College. He was employed on staff, I believe, for First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana for a while. 01:26:01.000 --> 01:26:03.400 And he preached a sermon in the past called Struck Blind. 01:26:03.400 --> 01:26:05.700 It was a great sermon. I really like the sermon. 01:26:05.900 --> 01:26:12.040 Obviously, in some cases, what he has said could be interpreted poorly or misconstrued 01:26:12.040 --> 01:26:14.240 by the media, and of course, that's what they did. 01:26:14.240 --> 01:26:17.080 But in general, I just like the sermon. 01:26:17.080 --> 01:26:18.080 I love the sermon. 01:26:18.080 --> 01:26:19.080 I love what he said. 01:26:19.080 --> 01:26:20.960 He said a lot of things that need to be said. 01:26:20.960 --> 01:26:23.160 And I'm just going to read lots of quotes from his sermon, all right? 01:26:23.160 --> 01:26:27.200 So if you didn't hear it, you get to hear it right now, all right? 01:26:27.200 --> 01:26:32.120 But he was preaching on Genesis 19 and Judges 19 and just Romans 1 and all that subject. 01:26:32.120 --> 01:26:32.620 he said. 01:26:33.000 --> 01:26:37.880 In talking about Sodom, talking about Genesis 19, the place was full of homosexuality and 01:26:37.880 --> 01:26:41.380 people living like animals and living like beasts. 01:26:41.380 --> 01:26:44.160 And they could not find those ten people. 01:26:44.160 --> 01:26:46.840 The homosexuals said, we want those angels. 01:26:46.840 --> 01:26:51.580 And they were trying to knock the door down to commit a wicked act with them. 01:26:51.580 --> 01:26:53.000 That's how vile the city was. 01:26:53.400 --> 01:26:59.560 The Bible says at that moment God came and he struck those men blind. Why? Because that's 01:26:59.560 --> 01:27:06.760 vile and it's wicked and it's reprobate. That's why I like the sermon, right? And just just for 01:27:06.760 --> 01:27:09.880 reference this is before the new IMB ever existed, all right? 01:27:11.700 --> 01:27:16.500 When the queer tried to get to Lot's family, God struck them blind. 01:27:16.500 --> 01:27:22.100 And for God to take somebody's sight away, it must mean it's a very vile sin. 01:27:22.100 --> 01:27:29.780 Genesis 19 is not a youthful mistake. God did that. Do not take that back. 01:27:29.780 --> 01:27:32.740 Do not take that back! This is a quote from the sermon, alright? 01:27:34.600 --> 01:27:40.920 Then he also said, in America, we need to stop burning flags and start burning fags. 01:27:40.920 --> 01:27:43.640 He says, about time somebody said what needs to be said. 01:27:43.640 --> 01:27:48.200 It's vile, it's reprobate, and AIDS is a curse sent from God. 01:27:48.200 --> 01:27:49.600 It's a curse sent from God. 01:27:49.600 --> 01:27:51.240 You say, well, you shouldn't say that. 01:27:51.240 --> 01:27:52.840 Well, you don't say it, I will. 01:27:52.840 --> 01:27:54.960 It's my turn. 01:27:54.960 --> 01:27:55.960 I'm loving this sermon. 01:27:55.960 --> 01:27:56.520 I'm just telling you, okay? 01:27:57.300 --> 01:27:59.620 He said, we need to hunt a home a week. 01:27:59.620 --> 01:28:00.780 We do, you hear that? 01:28:00.780 --> 01:28:03.500 Straighten it up, just put it on television, brother. 01:28:03.500 --> 01:28:07.100 Put it on television and put them back in the closet. 01:28:07.100 --> 01:28:08.900 The reason they came out of the closet, 01:28:08.900 --> 01:28:10.660 because there weren't enough men on the other side 01:28:10.660 --> 01:28:12.740 of the closet to keep them in. 01:28:12.740 --> 01:28:14.500 You'd be a man you wouldn't have, 01:28:14.500 --> 01:28:16.540 we wouldn't have that problem. 01:28:16.540 --> 01:28:18.860 You know, we should just take them all out 01:28:18.860 --> 01:28:21.020 and shoot them with a scattered shotgun. 01:28:21.300 --> 01:28:23.600 You say, well, you ought to love one another. 01:28:23.600 --> 01:28:26.300 I do most of the time, but you know me. 01:28:26.300 --> 01:28:28.580 He's got to get it off my chest. 01:28:28.580 --> 01:28:31.020 If we shot them all with a scatter shotgun, 01:28:31.020 --> 01:28:32.700 I could see the TV cameras. 01:28:32.700 --> 01:28:35.140 Mr. Owens, what happened here? 01:28:35.140 --> 01:28:38.020 Look at all those spots all over them. 01:28:38.020 --> 01:28:40.300 I'd say, yeah, they died of chickenpox. 01:28:43.300 --> 01:28:45.100 Now, he preached this, I believe, in the 90s. 01:28:45.100 --> 01:28:48.300 OK, this is a 90s sermon. 01:28:48.300 --> 01:28:49.900 Again, you have to understand something. 01:28:49.900 --> 01:28:51.540 At First Baptist Church, Hammonida, 01:28:51.540 --> 01:28:54.780 we're talking about thousands of people in the audience. 01:28:54.780 --> 01:28:56.140 Thousands of people. 01:28:56.140 --> 01:29:00.860 You listen to this sermon, there is just roars and thunders 01:29:00.860 --> 01:29:06.580 of the crowd, screaming, amen, hooping, hollering, yelling. 01:29:06.580 --> 01:29:09.180 I mean, it is just on fire. 01:29:11.700 --> 01:29:18.980 Then, in 2010, nearly 15 years ago, I preached a sermon that promoted physically hurting 01:29:18.980 --> 01:29:21.260 gay people. 01:29:21.260 --> 01:29:25.140 I was young, stupid, and immature. 01:29:25.140 --> 01:29:29.560 I didn't even hold to the belief of hurting people when I wrongfully made those comments. 01:29:29.560 --> 01:29:32.780 If I could retract those words, I certainly would. 01:29:32.780 --> 01:29:34.840 I wrongly represented both God and myself. 01:29:34.840 --> 01:29:37.700 I truly believe that God is a God of love. 01:29:37.700 --> 01:29:39.220 I no longer preach like that. 01:29:39.900 --> 01:29:43.900 and I purposely teach and train others to preach and behave properly as well. 01:29:43.900 --> 01:29:48.900 The hurtful words in that sermon tape were erased many years ago and somehow have resurfaced." 01:29:48.900 --> 01:29:52.900 You know how they resurfaced? By being sold on his website. 01:29:52.900 --> 01:29:57.900 This is strange, you know, how it has resurfaced. Wild. 01:29:57.900 --> 01:30:03.900 But you know, it's sad to see a guy preach like that on the issue and then take it back. 01:30:03.900 --> 01:30:06.900 And of course there's pressure, but you know what? When the media says, 01:30:06.900 --> 01:30:07.400 Hey! 01:30:07.600 --> 01:30:09.860 Do you take back your words? You know you say no 01:30:12.300 --> 01:30:14.080 You just say no 01:30:14.080 --> 01:30:20.220 You said go to hell. That's what you say, you know, you don't sit here and say like I don't want to hurt gay people 01:30:20.560 --> 01:30:25.360 I mean if anything if you felt it necessary to say look 01:30:26.100 --> 01:30:28.900 They're faggots, they're reprobate, they're disgusting, 01:30:28.900 --> 01:30:32.300 and I meant the government should take them out and shoot them with a scattered shotgun. 01:30:32.300 --> 01:30:35.800 Then go for it. If you want to make a slight correction, I'll stand with you. 01:30:35.800 --> 01:30:37.800 But you know what? You don't take back your words. 01:30:37.800 --> 01:30:42.100 You don't compromise. You don't just let the media push you over. 01:30:42.100 --> 01:30:46.000 And of course, the same guy that gets pushed over by the media, 01:30:46.000 --> 01:30:49.100 and pushed over by the faggots, and changes his rhetoric on this, 01:30:49.100 --> 01:30:53.600 is the same guy that, well, now he's stepped down and he's divorced his wife. 01:30:56.800 --> 01:30:57.800 It's just sad. 01:30:57.800 --> 01:30:58.800 And you know what? 01:30:58.800 --> 01:31:02.320 It's an embarrassment that we have fundamental Baptists getting up and saying, I'll never 01:31:02.320 --> 01:31:06.960 divorce, I'll never leave my wife, you know, and then of course divorce. 01:31:06.960 --> 01:31:13.320 Saying, hey, we should literally burn flags at the stake, okay, saying, you know, and 01:31:13.320 --> 01:31:16.880 just constantly saying like, you know what you're saying, and I should say it, and blah, 01:31:16.880 --> 01:31:17.880 blah, blah. 01:31:17.880 --> 01:31:18.880 And they'd be like, I didn't even mean it when I said it. 01:31:18.880 --> 01:31:19.880 What are you talking about? 01:31:22.000 --> 01:31:25.040 But how can you, who gets up and says things they don't even mean? 01:31:26.800 --> 01:31:27.760 Riling the bass. 01:31:29.840 --> 01:31:33.360 Is it the same as the pastors get up and say I've never fought with my wife? 01:31:34.480 --> 01:31:35.840 That's a lie too, isn't it? 01:31:36.500 --> 01:31:39.860 It's a lot of lies, unfortunately, in fundamental Baptist churches today. 01:31:39.860 --> 01:31:41.380 And it's sad, it's embarrassing. 01:31:41.380 --> 01:31:42.500 And let me say something. 01:31:42.500 --> 01:31:46.180 Look, any pastor that divorces his wife should be publicly called out. 01:31:46.180 --> 01:31:50.340 I'm sorry if you don't like that, but you know, if you put yourself in a position of being a pastor 01:31:50.340 --> 01:31:52.580 and you do something like that, you should be called out. 01:31:53.500 --> 01:31:58.660 I've had so many people get mad at me for posting that I posted I just said hey this guy stepped down 01:31:58.660 --> 01:32:00.820 I didn't really editorialize at all 01:32:00.820 --> 01:32:04.180 I just simply made the I just saved statement of fact stepped down divorced his wife 01:32:04.180 --> 01:32:10.060 And he is famously taken back his words on the sodomites and look I think it's the same type of person a person that's pushover 01:32:10.740 --> 01:32:12.900 To the media probably push over to his wife 01:32:13.500 --> 01:32:19.260 Hey, you need to say say to your wife.

We're not talking about a hypothetical here folks. 01:34:12.180 --> 01:34:14.980 We're not talking about hyperbole here. And you know where it started? 01:34:14.980 --> 01:34:18.900 It started with a stupid bible caller saying we are not allowed to use the word fag anymore. 01:34:19.100 --> 01:34:20.460 It's like, oh, I don't like pastors. 01:34:20.460 --> 01:34:22.800 I say, in fact, sometimes visitors get uncomfortable. 01:34:22.800 --> 01:34:24.580 They were going to get uncomfortable no matter what. 01:34:24.580 --> 01:34:27.180 They got uncomfortable just in the announcements, OK? 01:34:27.180 --> 01:34:30.200 Let alone me preaching, OK? 01:34:30.400 --> 01:34:34.000 And look, I get that I don't have to be as offensive as I am sometimes. 01:34:34.000 --> 01:34:37.280 I get that my personal opinions rub people the wrong way sometimes. 01:34:37.280 --> 01:34:40.160 And I try to scale that back as much as I can. 01:34:40.160 --> 01:34:44.400 But at the end of the day, for the most part, people are upset because of what the Bible says. 01:34:44.400 --> 01:34:46.320 And you know what? I'm not going to apologize for the Bible. 01:34:46.320 --> 01:34:50.320 I'll apologize for my actions, but I won't apologize for what the Bible says. 01:34:50.320 --> 01:34:51.840 And we should not take it back. 01:34:51.900 --> 01:34:54.060 And you know what?
