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