Thank you very much. Thank you. Thank you. Hey everybody, thanks for joining us on The Baptist Bias. Sorry we're running a few minutes late, but I think we've got everything set up for a really good show this evening. It's going to be on the Russian-Ukrainian conflict and the war that's going on. We're going to have our call-ins this evening, so if you'd like to call them the show. Hey everybody, thanks for joining us on The Baptist Bias. Sorry for the reverb. And, you know, we need to kick it off with our binologue. According to celebrities CNN and Kamala, we have an obligation to fight Putin. McDonald's is leading the chivalrous charge by shutting down all of its GMO diabetes-causing blood clot burgers. In fact, no more quarter pounders for any Soviet. Russians are terrified of the slimming effects of not having greasy, saturated food so easily at their disposal. Unintentional consequences might be Russians sleeping better, having an increase in energy, increased fertility, and overall happiness. The horror! But no more golden arches for their viewing pleasure. Starbucks, Coca-Cola, and PepsiCo have joined hands with Ronald McDonald to virtue signal their creepy, unwanted, transgender, clown-like advances. Meanwhile, normal people try avoiding the kid's birthday clown like the plague. Russia's not even invited to the party anymore. But folks, war gets uglier than that. No more gold medals for Team Russia, as FIFA has eliminated the entire country from their roster. Putin's going to have to be satisfied with playing on Team China for now. But that's not all. The woke mob knows where to hit Putin where it really hurts. No more cats! And I'm not just talking about musicals. Nobody cares about that Broadway boar fest anyway. I'm talking about actual feline cats. The International Cat Federation has announced that it's banning Russian cats from competing. That's right, Russian cats have been officially cancelled. And Putin is shaking in his boots as a result. If that meow missile doesn't stop him from shelling Ukraine, nothing will. If you've changed your profile picture to a Ukrainian flag, and you're not skeptical about the unified celebrity outrage, you find yourself agreeing with Joe Biden. You think these are normal war tactics, and you stand with corporate America on every new thing. Including the current conflict happening in a country you probably can't even spell. You need to get the Baptist bias. Well, we're really glad to have you joining us this evening for the Baptist Bias. We're going to be talking about the Russia-Ukraine war conflict. And we're going to try and look at it from a biblical perspective, but we also just want to show some clips. Some of the media outlets, the things that they've been saying, what the world's saying about this. And surprisingly, there's kind of this unified rallying effort from corporate media, from the government, from the celebrities. And what I find kind of interesting is that a lot of the Republicans who have been saying that all the media does is lie, lie, lie, and Biden doesn't even know what's going on, and they seem to reject a lot of the narratives coming from celebrities, somehow now are changing their profile picture to put a Ukraine flag, and they're finally on Team Biden. It just seems like all they needed was a little bit of war to get on the Democrats' side. And for me, I find that a little perplexing that people are just so easy to jump on any bandwagon, that America's always the good guy in every conflict, and everybody that's their teammate, everyone that's their partner is somehow this virtuous hero. But I think there's more to the story. Glad to have Ben the Baptist on the show with us this evening. How's it going, Brother Ben? It's good. You know, this is a really exciting topic. I feel like everyone's obviously been focused on this. The corporate media has been talking a lot about it. And for me, I find it almost sickening. Like, I actually feel sick to my stomach when I hear politicians get up and put themselves on a moral pedestal and talk about how we are defending liberty and fighting against tyranny by standing with the Ukraine. The same politicians who support censorship, the same politicians who support taking away our free speech rights for deviating even slightly from the sanitized narrative, the same politicians who would love if we just ceased to exist because they hate Christianity and they hate the word of God. You know, for me, it's just sickening to see these people championing themselves as some sort of defense for civil liberties, some sort of defense for freedom, when in reality, they're stripping away those things from us, Bible-believing Christians every single day. And at Steadfast Baptist Church, we've experienced that ourselves with the intense, you know, the insane just persecution that doesn't seem to ever end, getting kicked out of our building and all the rest of it, other things as well. And so we live in a country that hates us, that doesn't want us to believe what we believe, that wants to shut us up, that wants to strip away our civil liberties. And then we have these leaders getting up on television and talking about how they're defending freedom. No, you're not. Yeah, I mean, freedom from what? That's the real question, because obviously, you know, they're trying to liberate people. But the question is, who are we liberating them from and what are we liberating them to? Sodomy. Probably, basically. That's why you should, you know, check out the shirt, sodomitedeception.com. That'll help you understand virtually why a lot of things are happening in our society today. And we'll get to that. Zelensky has a few things to say on that topic, too. But why don't you kick us off with, we kind of want to show us, Ben, or maybe some people are just thinking like, I don't even know what's going on. Russia, Ukraine, like what happened? Do we have some places, some names, some facts we want to drop here or what? Well, unlike Kamala, which I'll read you how she described this conflict a little bit later on, you know, I did want to kind of dive in and sort of give a quick overview of what's happening. So we have this Ukraine crisis. Russia has invaded. And it is obvious to anybody with a set of eyes, ears and a brain that the United States, the Western world as a whole, NATO provoked this. NATO provoked what we're seeing right now. They poked the hornet's nest one too many times and it resulted in exactly what they were aiming for, which is war, which is Russia actually invading Ukraine. They actually want this to happen. But NATO's expansion, I think there's three reasons why this is occurring. The first reason is NATO expansion eastward. And this individual here, George Kennan, he joined the State Department in 1928 and served as US ambassador to Moscow in 1952. He's an expert on Russia. And he said on May 2nd, 1998, in response to NATO's eastward expansion, he said, quote, I think it is the beginning of a new Cold War. I think the Russians will gradually react quite adversely and it will affect their policies. I think it's a tragic mistake. This other person here, Jack F. Matlock Jr., he wrote this in an article entitled I was there, NATO and the origins of the Ukraine crisis. He said, quote, since Putin's major demand is an assurance that NATO will take no further members and specifically that Ukraine, that not Ukraine or Georgia, obviously there would have been no basis for the present crisis if there had been no expansion. NATO expansion of the alliance following the end of the Cold War, or if the expansion had occurred in harmony with building a security structure in Europe that included Russia. So what these people are talking about is the fact that, again, the first component of all this NATO's eastward expansion provoked Russia because they don't want a conglomerate of nations that are backed by the West right, you know, landlocked with them, with their borders. What you have to understand is the military industrial complex, I think, plays a massive role in this, Pastor Shelley, because the military industrial complex would love more NATO members because the more members are added to that group, the more weapons deals they are required to sign with them. And that means that weapons manufacturers increase their sales at the end of the day. The love of money is the root of all evil. But I wanted to, I don't know if we're going to be able to do this, but there's a picture and we'll see if Brother Tim can pull it up or not, but there's a picture of basically a map of Europe that shows all the different NATO countries that are surrounding Russia. And here's my question for you. Imagine if this was the United States and we had all these other nations surrounding the United States, hugging its borders and continuing to expand eastward. Don't you think America would feel compelled to respond in some way? Well, and again, I think, you know, unfortunately, most people are very ignorant when it comes to these topics, these acronyms of what we're describing here. So just just to give people an idea of what we're talking about. NATO stands for North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Now, essentially, it's a culmination of 30 different countries that have all come together. They signed an agreement in nineteen forty nine. So we're talking around the timeline of World War Two. And all of these countries basically form this this pact, this treaty saying that if anybody attacks any singular country, they all have to go to war together in unison. They all have to attack back and respond back. So it's kind of like a gang, you know, if you think about it or the mafia in a sense of these 30 countries. And obviously, if every country in the whole world was all in unison, then it really wouldn't make that much sense because they're all on the same team. I don't know how that works. Yeah, I believe there's like two hundred and fifty seven ish countries in the world, something like that. But obviously, when you look at the list, there's just a handful of people that are just kind of excluded, which I guess are just deemed public enemy number one. But if you look at the list, it's basically United States, UK, Turkey, Spain, Slovenia, Slovakia, Romania, Portugal, Poland, Norway, North Macedonia, Netherlands, Montenegro, Luxembourg, Lithuania, Latvia, Italy, Iceland, Hungary, Greece, Germany, France, Estonia, Denmark, Czech Republic, Croatia, Canada, Bulgaria, Belgium and Albania. So essentially, the vast majority of Europe, including the United States and then, you know, I think it's what Canada and then maybe a few small other countries. But when you kind of look at this from a geographical perspective, the closest nation or the closest country that is not in NATO, that's actually a viable threat to any of these countries would be Russia, because if you think about it, China is not really surrounded by all these European countries. America is not really on their backdoor. Canada is not really on the backdoor, but we kind of have Canada on one side and then we kind of Europe on the other side. We're kind of surrounding Russia specifically. Now, of course, the reason why this is kind of a dangerous provocation is the fact that wherever these NATO countries borders end, any one of these countries could put any kind of missiles, weaponry or armed forces right up against that border. And that would be really close to Russia. Specifically, Ukraine is not in NATO, yet is knocking down the door of Russia. It's in the backyard of Russia. So assuming that Ukraine becomes a part of NATO, countries like America or the UK could potentially put all kinds of weaponry, including nuclear warheads, right there on the backdoor of Russia. Essentially saying, you know, bow to our wishes or demands or we'll send nukes on you, whereas Russia can't respond because they can't send a missile apparently all the way from Russia into America. So it's basically us being able to just point a gun at someone's head and they have no weapon whatsoever. Yeah. And I guess, you know, Russia, like every other normal person wouldn't want to be sitting at a table where one person is just pointing a gun at their head and they are completely defenseless. And they're just basically at the beck and call of this individual with the gun to their head, trying to force them to do all kinds of things, bow to their morals, agenda, their sanctions, anything that could possibly hurt them from an economical perspective. So you could see how Russia is kind of being put in a difficult position. Now, I would say this, and I want to make this clear. I'm not for war in any kind. You know, the Bible teaches that we should be for peace. The Bible says I am for peace. But when I speak, they are for war. And specifically in the New Testament, you know, our warfare is a spiritual warfare where we fight against lies and deception and false doctrine, not where we actually call the arms we call to military. And, you know, I'm very against violence. I don't I don't support violence in any way, shape or form. The only time the Bible really outlines a call to arms would be that in self-defense. And we covered that last podcast. We haven't checked it out. You need to check out our self-defense podcast. Right. But, you know, it kind of begs the question when it comes from a country perspective is obviously someone goes into your house. You know, that's a pretty clear crossing of a boundary. You need to defend yourself. But here's a question. What if, Ben, someone was setting up a 50 cal in your front yard just aimed right at your window? Is that a breach of your personal space to the point where what if you go out and defend yourself? And this is how the enemy is. The enemies doesn't fight fair. So what if someone broke into your house to kill you, but they have a baby, a live baby strapped to their chest? And you have to basically defend yourself while they're carrying a baby strapped to its chest that you could possibly injure while also having to try and protect yourself. It kind of feels like that's what they're trying to do these days, where they're putting innocent people on the battle lines because they don't really care. And then when you attack by accidentally hurting some of these, you know, innocent victims, more or less, then they make you to be this bad guy. They basically paint you out to be this villain, even though they're the ones that strapped a baby to their chest and ran through your house screaming like a maniac with a gun and basically provoking a fight with you. Exactly. I think that's the best way to describe this. Imagine a criminal strapping babies to its chest and then running around trying to attack you. And then you accidentally hurt a baby somehow. And then they're like, you're the bad guy. Right. Which there's no winners in this situation. It's pretty much just it's all bad, really, is how I view it. How what else from this conflict? What else from this situation? Can you help the audience kind of boil down in simplistic terms? Like, what are we looking at here? First of all, a quick response to what you said in Deuteronomy chapter 20, the Bible tells us in verse 10, when thou comest nigh unto a city to fight against it, then proclaim peace unto it. And it shall be, if it make the answer of peace and open unto thee, then it shall be that all the people that is found therein shall be tributaries unto thee and they shall serve thee. And if it will make no peace with thee, but will make war against thee, then thou shalt besiege it. So we see that option number one is what? Peace. And if this nation were to make peace with the children of Israel, then they weren't prescribed to actually besiege it. They weren't commanded to besiege it because God is not pro incessant warfare, pro military industrial complex. And there's some more verses I could talk about a little bit later on. But my point is that the first option, if a nation proclaims peace under you, is not to then go ahead and besiege it and engage in nation building and regime change. And if the United States, the Western world as a whole, was interested in peace, then the policies that would be advocated for by our political establishment would be a neutralized Ukraine. And what I mean by that is compromise with Vladimir Putin, compromise with Russia and say that we will never allow the Ukraine to join NATO. And we will always ensure that the Ukraine is neutral and a bridge to the West and a neutral party between Russia and the rest of the world, rather than asserting, rather than demanding that the Ukraine be not just a part of NATO, but 100 percent pro United States. That obviously is a move designed to provoke Russia into conflict, which we're seeing right now. And here's something else that the United States has done to provoke this conflict. And it happened in 2014. What I'm referring to is what's known as the Maidan coup. And essentially what happened is that the Ukrainian president at the time, his name is Viktor Yanukovych, he rejected the European Union's terms for an association agreement in late 2013 in favor of a Russian offer. And so there were some demonstrators who weren't happy about that. And they protested. We know something about protests here at Steadfast Baptist Church. They demonstrated they protest, protested in Kiev's Independence Square. And that is known as Maidan, by the way, as well as some other cities as well. And what happened is that the United States actually inserted itself in those demonstrations by funding them, by radicalizing them, by enabling them to demonstrate and inflame the situation to the point that these demonstrators ended up overthrowing the president of the Ukraine at the time. They engaged in a coup. His term wasn't up till 2016, but it was in late 2013 that the president, who was, you know, leaned Russian, he was overthrown. And the United States was responsible for this. And the proof of that is there was a phone call, which we can if we can get that queued up to our producer there, Brother Tim, the file name is simply phone call is what it should be called. And what I want to play for you guys is just a real short clip here of the Obama administration. Let me see. Who is this? It is a are we going to go? OK, let me just real quickly. I want to set the clip up. So the let me I'm going to read you from an article just to set this up so you know exactly what you're about to listen to. And this article is entitled America's Ukraine Hypocrisy. And it's by Ted Galen Carpenter. But it says the extent of the Obama administration's meddling in Ukraine's politics was breathtaking. Russian intelligence intercepted and leaked to the international media a Newland telephone call. Now, who is this? Who are you about to hear? You're about to hear the voice of Victoria Newland, who's the assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian Affairs, or who was rather the assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian Affairs under the Obama administration. And basically, she is strategizing with the US ambassador to the Ukraine. His name is Jeffrey Piatt, strategizing about who the West wants to be in power in the Ukraine while they already have a democratically elected president in his seat, his proper seat of authority. And then we have this Obama administration official talking on the phone, which was leaked about who they want, who they prefer to be in charge. So if we could play that clip, go ahead. So I don't think cleats should go into the government. I don't think it's necessary. I don't think it's a good idea. Yeah, I mean, I guess you think what in terms of him not going into the government, just let him sort of stay out and do his political homework and stuff. I'm just thinking, in terms of sort of the process moving ahead, we want to keep the moderate Democrats together. The problem is going to be Tani Böck and his guys. And I'm sure that's part of what Yanukovych is calculating on all of this. I think Yats is the guy who's got the economic experience, the governing experience. What he needs is cleats and Tani Böck on the outside. He needs to be talking to them four times a week. I just think cleats going in, he's going to be at that level working for Yatsenyuk. It's just not going to work. So that's the Obama administration official who's strategizing on who exactly the United States wants to be in power. We have politicians today getting up and virtue signaling about how they're defending democracy by standing for the Ukraine. But what happened in 2014? It seemed like the United States wasn't too interested in defending the democratic process when they got involved in the 2014 coup that occurred in the Ukraine. They orchestrated it. And we have the proof right there courtesy of that phone call. It doesn't seem like our politicians really do care about the democratic process like they claim. Well, you know, makes me think of a verse from the Bible. It says in Psalms chapter number two, the kings of the earth set themselves and the rulers take counsel together against the Lord and against his anointed. So the Bible suggests that the rulers of this world are essentially appointing themselves and they're setting up other rulers. We see this consistently through the Bible where Nebuchadnezzar or another powerful leader will come into an area, maybe even Pharaoh, and he'll just set up whoever he wants to be in charge of a particular area. And essentially their only real goal is just to be loyal to that particular leader, that particular the wills and wants and wishes of that particular hierarchy. So as long as you're loyal to Nebuchadnezzar, he doesn't really care about what you're doing, how qualified you are for the position, if the economy is going well or anything like that. And I find that America and some of these other more powerful nations are really the ones pulling the strings and putting whomever they want in power, as they obviously are pretty much putting themselves in power. Unless you still believe that the election is legitimate, where we have one hundred and fifty percent of counties voting for a particular candidate, where we have all kinds of dead people voting. And, you know, these things are provable when they do the elections, they look at it, it's like real people who have died vote in these elections. And you have to ask this question, who voted for them? Because someone has to be voting for them. Now, when I think about this entire conflict, you know, I find kind of ironic. What's that is I kind of find the 2003 Iraq war a really interesting parallel, because if you think about just the main concepts, right. Russia's invading Ukraine for fear of what? Nuclear warheads that are going to be potentially aimed towards them or hurt them or harm them. Right. What was one of the main justifications for the war in Iraq is weapons of mass destruction that are theoretically being developed there that are going to be used against America. So we just invade a country. And if you think about it, it's not like Iraq really came out and just said, we bombed America, we want death to America or whatever. For all we know, even if you believed the official 9-11 story, which it's all lies, but even if you did believe it, why is that not just a small group of radicals that are from some of these Middle Eastern countries? Why do we now say it's the entire nation of Iraq, is the entire country of Iraq. We're invading the entire nation. We're taking over the nuclear warheads, you know, supposedly that they have. How is that different than what's happening in Ukraine with Russia? The only difference is the media telling you who's the good guy and who's the bad guy. That's the only difference. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, obviously, every single one of these conflicts, they have similarities. And I think the big one is that all of this is orchestrated in order to feed the military industrial complex, the incestuous relationship between weapons manufacturers and the political establishment. But I got a text message here. I thought that was interesting from one of our friends in the back that are helping to produce the show. Victoria Nuland, who is the lady that you heard on the phone call strategizing about who they're going to place in power, strategizing about exactly what the puppet, the Western backed puppet president is going to look like in the Ukraine after they orchestrate this coup. And they did it in 2014. Victoria Nuland, the Obama administration official, was born in 1961 to Sherwin Nuland, a surgeon born to Eastern European Jewish immigrants and a Christian mother, Rona McCann. I'm not sure if I pronounced that right, but it seems like the Jews have their fingerprints and everything. Well, anything that's going on the world stage. Right. You know, and the Bible says this. The Bible says the love of money is the root of all evil, essentially tying back all warfare and all of these different conflicts to just money. And of course, there's a certain group of people that seem to be a little interested in money. Jews. Well, you're going to obviously get us thrown off of this platform. Yeah, but here's, you know, something else that I want to kind of address about this whole issue, this whole situation is we kind of see one of the most unified rallying efforts by celebrities, by the government. In fact, when I just drive up and down the street, they have those electronic billboards and I've just seen just right on the billboard, just I stand with Ukraine. And there's no like company associated with it. It doesn't say the ad council. It just has a big flag that just says I stand with Ukraine. Well, here's the thing. Someone paid for that. Someone took money and said, I want to put money out there to just send a message of I just stand with Ukraine. And here's a question. How does your average, you know, tile laying or plumbing or carpentry American, quote unquote, stand with Ukraine? This just seems like a pure propagandistic message aimed at getting people to have public support of doing what? Sending our military into another endless war. Exactly. And really, people don't even know why. They're just going to show babies and women hurt. And obviously that's horrific. That's terrible. Get some Sarah McLaughlin, maybe show some dogs or something that, you know, got injured. A dog that's now three legged or something like that, you know, and the sad music and say, we've got to, you know, invade Russia. We've got to go fight Russia. We've got to get in there. And of course, here's the thing. If we become the hero, whether Ukraine becomes NATO or not, let's just say we become the hero. We invade and we take over Ukraine at that point with our military in there. What's to stop them from putting the nukes in that they wanted in the first place? Right. I mean, you know, at the end of the day, this actually could very well lead to World War Three. And, you know, the Bible does address this and we could talk about that in a second. But to me, again, it's so obvious. You bring up the propaganda. You bring up people waving a Ukraine flag saying they stand with the Ukraine. Totally unaware of the fact that it's this country that started the conflict to begin with. The overthrow that I talked about of the Ukrainian government, a democratically elected government in 2014, led directly to some conflict in the eastern portion of the country called the Donbass. And those are basically people who are pro-Russia and they've been getting shelled. They've been getting killed. They've been getting murdered on a daily basis. In fact, can we play and this is going to make you sick. Can we play the file name Lindsey Graham, if you would? Lindsey Graham, let me know when that's ready there in the back, because here we have an American politician in the Ukraine bragging about how the United States is going to help their Marine Corps murder Russians. Here it is. You will fight for your homeland. Your fight is our fight. 2017 will be the year of offense. All of us will go back to Washington and we will push the case against Russia. Enough of a Russian aggression. It is time for them to pay a heavier price. Our fight is not with the Russian people, but with Putin. Our promise to you is to take your calls to Washington. So here we have an American politician. Here we have Lindsey Graham, a sack of filth, a warmonger who's controlled by weapons manufacturers, corporate lobbyists and special interests. He's a prostitute going into the Ukraine and bragging about how he supports their Marines and talking about how, you know, their fight is America's fight. And here's why I bring this up, because this conflict that's been going on in the eastern part of the Ukraine was supposed to be resolved courtesy of a set of agreements, the Minsk agreements. And it was the West that violated those agreements. And there is the proof of that because you have our politicians going into the Ukraine and saying, your fight is our fight. 2017 is going to be the year of offense. Now, imagine that, you know, we're lucky that Russia hasn't already declared war directly against the United States with all the poking and prodding that we're doing. And here's the thing you say. Well, what's you brought up the money being the root of all evil? Yeah. The United States wants Russia to invade Ukraine because of a multitude of reasons, not just to feed the military industrial complex, but there's also this angle. Russia was going to build a pipeline that goes under the Baltic Sea that would connect it with Germany called Nord Stream 2. This would make Europe even more dependent on them for liquid gas. The only way that that project would be interrupted, they said, was if Russia invaded the Ukraine. And that's exactly what happened. So think about this. America pokes them, pokes them, pokes them into doing it. See, Pastor Shelley wants to punch me in the face right now, but he's not going to do it. We'll see if I kept going. But my point is they provoked them into engaging in exactly what they wanted to begin with, which is to invade the Ukraine. And I think as a pretext, perhaps to start an even larger conflict, perhaps even nuclear war, and of course, to prevent this pipeline from being built. But what are your what's your reaction to the Lindsey Graham clip and some of the other? Well, obviously, if you're spreading commerce like oil, there's winners and losers to that. So obviously, the Russian companies and manufacturers, suppliers of this oil would benefit from an increased customer base. And those that are supplying the oil to Germany now would be the losers of that particular contract. And while there's war, not only will they be, you know, locked into whatever supplier they have, they can jack the price to whatever they want. And they're basically selling the exact same product, but just for a much higher profit margin, much higher prices. As we see in America, where, you know, Americans are getting hit with all this inflation, yet corporations are seeing record profits, record sales, record increases, and their bottom line just keeps getting even better. I mean, everyone got hit so hard during COVID and all these different things. Yet we see Amazon, we see Walmart, we see the fast food chains just having record sales, record profits, adding more and more people. And so, of course, there's a lot of money to be gained from any and all of these particular conflicts. One thing that I find interesting is these people are just greedy cowards. If I have a conflict with you, you know, why do I have to shell out some other person to get involved? You know, if you keep poking me, why do I have to go and give Dylan 20 bucks to come sock you in the face? You know, it really just kind of almost makes me look like a coward. And, of course, the whole goal of socking you in the face is so that I get more airtime on the show because I'm just so greedy or something like that. Right. Like that's essentially what's happening in these countries. And, you know, the media is not going to sit here and say, look at what America is doing. They're poking the bear and there's all this money at stake. And, you know, we're just paid actors called news anchors. You know, they're not going to get up and just tell you straight face. But this is what's funny to me. OK. And it's not necessarily funny. It's kind of sad how many Americans will literally say our government lies. They're lying to us about all kinds of different things. All the wars in the past were, you know, lies and and there's all this propaganda. And I can't, you know, believe anything they're telling me, but we need to stand with Ukraine. And it's just like, what happened? It's like, why? Why did you go from just complete distrust? You recognize all the lies and the craziness and and just what's happening. But then just this one issue, it's just like war just tugs at the heartstrings of everybody. And they just instantly side with whoever is in power. And it's kind of convenient because whenever you go in war, what do you have? Inflation, hardship, supply chain issues, all of these different issues. And it almost like completely masks and covers up everything that the Democrats and our government has been doing to the American people. It gives them a complete scapegoat. And of course, then they'll blame Trump. I'm surprised. I don't even know if it's probably been happening. It has like, well, Trump is in Russia, our buddies and and Trump stoking the war. And so really, all of our inflation is Trump's fault, you know, and all the gas prices are Trump's fault. And let's make memes about Trump in Russia or something like that, you know. So, of course, the enemy, of course, liars love to reframe everything, put their own context on stuff, try to spin it so as to make themselves the good guys. And I have to say, at this point in time, it's really hard to even know it's real or not anymore. It's hard to know it's parody and not parody. And I think that it's obviously coming from the devil because the Bible says God's not the author of confusion. The author confusions the devil and the devil wants everyone to be extremely confused, not know who to trust, not know where to turn, not know what to do, feel scared, alone, terrified. Whereas the Bible says God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. And, you know, you can always trust the Bible. You don't have to trust Brian Stelter. You don't have to trust Lindsey Graham, obviously. You don't want to trust Biden. You don't trust any of these corporate shills, celebrities. You want to trust the word of God. And the word of God is always going to help you decipher what's really going on behind these conflicts and to suggest, oh, there's a good side and a bad side. There's a lot of wars in the Bible where there's no one on the good side or the bad side. Everyone's just on the wrong side. I mean, what sense does it make if in Genesis chapter number 14, when Lot, Abraham's nephew, is taken from his home in Sodom, essentially. And, you know, when they come back from the war after Abraham defeats the five kings before, he's like, you know what, the good guys are Sodom. That would be the same is basically just, you know, looking at all these companies. America's the good guys, you know, because they won, because they got delivered for whatever reason. No, Abraham's a good guy. Now, in that situation, Abraham did intervene. Right. He saw a conflict. It wasn't necessarily his conflict. He goes and he rescues Lot. What do you say to that narrative of, you know, well, America's not supposed to be the world police, but how can we just see the atrocities that are happening and not get involved, not help, not assist these people? What would you say to that particular line of argumentation? It's a selective virtue signaling. They care about people getting shelled by the military selectively. Look at what's going on with the Palestinians in Israel. Look at what political Zionism has done to those people in the Middle East who are getting killed, who are getting tortured, who are getting thrown out of their homes, who are getting bullied, assaulted. And yet there is no outcry. We don't see people waving. You know, we don't see this outcry from multinational corporations and the news media for the Palestinians on behalf of the Palestinians. And until people are willing to look at all of those situations equally and be equally as outraged, then to me, it's obvious that it's nothing more than a synthetic response that they've been socially engineered to elicit. That's the way that I look at it. You know, Kamala Harris, this was really funny to me because you had brought up not listening to a lot of these shills. Well, here's how Kamala Harris described the conflict. We just went through and gave you a quick overview. Obviously, we don't want to get into, you know, want to be geopolitical nerds here. And we could talk about this for two or three hours, just that portion of the story alone. So I wanted to give you guys, and Pastor as well, just kind of give you guys a quick overview of what's going on and what incited all of this. NATO's eastward expansion, the Nord Stream 2 pipeline and the 2014 Maidan coup, which led to the conflict in the eastern Donbas region of the Ukraine where Russians were getting killed. I think that's what provoked this and some other things as well. But I think those are the three main catalysts for what we're seeing. Well, here's how Kamala, the stupid whore, this is how she summed all of this up. She said, quote, So Ukraine is a country in Europe. It exists next to another country called Russia. Russia is a bigger country. Russia is a powerful country. Russia decided to invade a smaller country called Ukraine. So basically, that's wrong. And it goes against everything that we stand for. So what about when America invaded Iraq, a bigger, more powerful country invading a smaller country? Was it OK then? Exactly. What about Iraq? What about the nation, the regime change, I should say, in Libya? Hillary Clinton bragged about the assassination of Muammar Gaddafi. We came, we saw, he died. All the different conflicts and foreign military intervention that the United States has engaged in since its inception. Iraq, you talk about Afghanistan, you talk about Libya, you talk about what they want to do in Syria, you talk about the Arab Spring. We could go on and on giving people examples of the United States sticking its nose where it doesn't belong, including in the Ukraine, overthrowing its democratically elected government in 2014. And here we have Kamala Harris, who thinks that she has the moral high ground, recapping it, sounding like a second grader. I mean, this is, you know, clown world. You know why? You know, I would speculate that answer was given. This is my speculation. OK, she knows exactly why it's actually happening, but she's not going to say that and she's not prepped for the answer. So then she just has to fill hot air and she's just kind of on the on the cusp. It's like, well, there's a big country and a smaller country and they invaded and we don't like that. So obviously, you know, I mean, you know, she you really think that the vice president has not been briefed on this particular conflict, doesn't know what's at stake, doesn't know the outcomes of of these positive or negative effects. She doesn't want to get up there and say, well, some of our corporate lobbyist groups gave us, you know, millions of dollars. And and we basically are on the hook for a lot of incriminating photos that we don't want exposed against us. And if I don't go along with it, I might find myself on Hillary Clinton's list. And essentially, I'm hoping to make a run for president when this old guy dies. We're planning that in a couple of months, but we want to make it look like an assassination attempt from a Trump supporter. So we're kind of working on that agenda. She's not going to get up there and just tell all the game plan. And all those thoughts are obviously racing through her mind. So this is a big country and my name is Kamala Harris and I am the vice president. And there is a big country in a small country and I support black children. So vote, vote for me and the old guy. You know, it's like they have nothing to say, nothing to say because they can't say the truth. They're so far removed from reality and truth. There's almost nothing for them to say anymore. And they have to have a very scripted narrative. That's why it's coming from the corporate media, coming hand down from the Associated Press. You know, without their little binders and note cards, they have nothing to say. They don't know what to talk about because they cannot tell the truth. They cannot explain what's really been happening. Now, I think to illustrate where we're at, we need to get a peek at what the narrative is. Let's go through some of these videos. I think you have a lot of cool clips here of corporate America and a lot of these celebrities and people telling us what to believe, essentially. What color shirt should we wear tomorrow? What should my Facebook profile look like? What do I need to get injected with next? I mean, essentially that's what celebrities do. They're not paid actors or anything like that. Celebrities like Zelensky, who's a literal actor. But we'll get there in a minute. Why don't you play for us? Is there some kind of a clip or article you want to share with us? Yes. First of all, Proverbs 14, 15. It says, The simple believeth every word, but the prudent man looketh well to his going. And there's been a lot of fake news out there. There's been a lot of propaganda about what's really going on. Here's a quick example. Russia supposedly deployed mobile crematoriums is what The Telegraph was reporting. And in reality, they were using a photo from a 2013 YouTube video posted by a Russian incinerator construction company that was incinerating trash bags. So The Telegraph ran this article with the headline entitled, Russia deploys mobile crematoriums to follow its troops into battle. And they were using a photograph from a 2013 garbage incinerator because it wasn't actually happening. And then we also had, I'm sure you might have heard about this, these Ukrainian soldiers on Snake Island that told Russian officers to go expletive yourself before being killed. They weren't actually killed. There's video of these soldiers actually surrendering peacefully. And so that didn't happen whatsoever. So I think those are just a couple of examples of the fake news that we're seeing. But as far as the propaganda is concerned, as far as how the media is spinning this conflict, they're trying to convince everyone that inflation is good. They're trying to convince everyone that the skyrocketing gas prices are all a necessary sacrifice for us as we fight against the evil Vladimir Putin, who's dissolving civil liberties simply because of toxic masculinity or whatever stupid reason they believe he's doing it for. And an example of this would be what Colbert said. You want to talk about virtue signaling. I know we've used those words a few times already on the podcast, but this is Exhibit A of what it looks like. Stephen Colbert, a propagandist, not a comedian, a propagandist who does the bidding of the puppet masters who control him, gets up on his television show and talks about how he is happy to pay exorbitant amounts of money for gas if it means fighting Putin. Let's go to the clip now. ...crippling sanctions and it looks like there's more to come because the U.S. and its European allies are now discussing banning imports of Russian oil. Take that, Putin. We're not going to buy our gas from a war criminal. We're going to buy it from Saudi Arabia. But it's going to cost. Since the invasion, oil prices have skyrocketed. Today, the average gas price in America hit an all-time record high of over $4 per gallon. Okay, that stings, but a clean conscience is worth a buck or two. I'm willing to pay... It's important. It's important. It's important. I'm willing to pay $4 a gallon. Hell, I'll pay $15 a gallon because I drive a Tesla. I want you to notice how he contradicts himself. First of all, he says, oh, you know, we're not getting Russian oil. Instead, we're getting it from Saudi Arabia, the good guy. So he makes what's actually a decent joke there, basically making the point that, well, hold on a minute. It's not like the alternative is necessarily moral either, because the alternative to Russian oil would be importing Saudi Arabian oil. And they're not exactly the good guys either. And then he turns around and says, oh, but I'm willing to pay more for gas if it means fighting Putin. I'm willing to pay more for gas as a result of not importing Russian oil. Hey, moron, that means that you would be paying more for Saudi Arabian oil, which you just implied wasn't a good idea either. You idiot. How does he not read the script and realize he contradicts himself right there? To use his words against him, he said, I'll pay more oil for a clean conscience. So apparently Saudi Arabian oil is very clean, you know, morally speaking. It's that Russian dirty oil. Even though he just implied that it wasn't. Yeah, you can't have it both ways, but apparently when you have an audience that you're paying to clap for you, you can have it both ways. You can essentially say whatever you want, and they're too stupid to even realize that they're making fun of you. If you fall for that hook, line and sinker, they're literally making fun of you. They're making a mockery of you. And this propaganda is silly. Now, we do have our call ins fixed, so if you want to call in, we'd love to hear from you about this controversy. One thing I would love if our call in visitors can do for us is, or our guests, is tell us some propaganda you heard or saw that you just thought was so outrageous. Because really, I feel like I'm seeing it from all angles. We're seeing it from all kinds of different levels. Just this idea of, well, Russia, everything Russian is bad now. And again, think about what Lindsey Graham said. Lindsey Graham said, our fight is not with the Russian people, it's with Putin. But does really banning oil from Russia hurt only Putin, or is it hurting random Russian men, women, and children who happen to be in charge of these companies, or have a business, or have some kind of vested interest in oil imports? I mean, who are we really hurting here? I mean, do we really think that Putin's getting less caviar, or he's getting less, you know, luxurious places to live or sleep? I mean, when you turn off the oil, is it really hurting Putin, or is it hurting your average middle class family, lower class families, people that work in these refineries, people that work on these plants, people that work on these pipelines? Those are the people that are really suffering. And of course, it just seems like by doing all these things, what do you do? You create a lot of people that are angry, they have no job, they have no money, they have no food, and who are they going to be angry at? Americans, who are going to be angry at? Ukrainians, who are they going to be angry at? So it's just almost fostering an even further escalation of war, hostility, exacerbating the particular situation. And of course, we're doing it as if we did something great. Now, here's a question. I mean, if Ukraine's not in NATO, okay, that means they're not an official ally, right? So by us sanctioning Russia, haven't we already picked sides? Oh, for sure, 100%. I mean, is NATO just the label on top? I mean, at what point do we just say we've already gone all in on Ukraine? We've 100% picked a side, and it's not just hurting Russians, it's hurting Americans, it's hurting us here. Because you go to California, they're paying close to $6 a gallon for gas, and it's a direct result of not just inflation, but we're seeing with regard to the banning of Russian imports of oil, that's what's causing a skyrocketed gas price. And then you have these morons getting up on television, exhibiting this piety about them about how they're willing to pay more for gas to stop Putin. Well, you know what? The middle class might not be willing to pay more. The middle class might not want to be raked over the coals. The middle class might not want to get ripped off in order to benefit a bunch of oligarchical ruling class elites who line their pockets as a result of conflict. Because that might not sound like a very good idea to them. Maybe they don't own a Tesla, Colbert. Well, here's a question. So if I give a Saudi Arabian more money, how is that helping Ukraine? Well, let's have increased gas prices, because we want all the middlemen and all the oil rig company owners and all the electric car company salesmen. We're going to line all of their pockets in an effort to stand with Ukraine. I mean, what Ukrainian has benefited from our gas prices increasing? That's such a weird paradox that it's like, who's literally falling for this? Who literally is thinking like, I'm so glad I'm standing with Ukraine by I mean, why don't you know what they should do? They should literally just tell people, post your receipt from the gas pump to stand with Ukraine. Just basically like change your profile picture to a receipt of your gas and say, hey, I'm standing with Ukraine, you know, and then put a Saudi Arabian flag underneath. Exactly. Because remember, Saudi Arabia, the Saudi Arabians, I should say, they're not exactly the good guys, but I have a clean conscience as I pay more for Saudi Arabian oil. So that makes sense. So to help Ukraine. To help Ukraine. Exactly. Because that's that's the narrative that we have now. It's kind of like when you say that a plane took down an entire building from its jet fuel, but a paper passport survived it all. I have a series of articles about some of the most ridiculous, idiotic and absurd. Yeah, let's hit them. Let's go fast. Let's hit some of these fast. Let's go through some of these fast. The anti-Russian censorship, the cancellation of Russia, the anti-Russian cancel culture. The first one, it was referenced in my Benelog. This is from the BBC. Ukraine crisis, EA Sports. I can't even get this out. Sorry. Could you read the headline? I'm losing it. Sure. Ukraine crisis. EA removes Russian teams from FIFA 22 game. So an entire video game is not even going to have the Russian country because they're still offended. I mean, you know what they should do? They should just have like a Ukraine all star team or something like that. It's like all Zelensky or something like like every player Zelensky or something like that. And every time they shoot, they score and they win or something like that. I guess all the Russians is, you know, too busy drinking vodka and riding polar bears or something. They can't they can't make it into the FIFA game. We've got a couple others. We had the Russian cats are banned from a cat show. This is from NBC News. I mean, NBC is such a joke network that it literally has an entire article dedicated to the fact that the International Cat Federation bans Russian felines from competitions. Because, you know, we really can't stand anything to do with Russia. Even their animals are bad. You know, our fight is not with with the Russian cats. It's with Putin. Oh, wait. Actually, it is because because those cats are really you know, they hate Ukraine and we're standing with Ukraine. We're banning the cats. So low IQ like it's embarrassing. It's embarrassing that our media reports. It's embarrassing that this is even happening. It is so low IQ. It is so stupid. It is peak clown world. I know I've said that a bunch of times on the livestream already, but it's true. It's true. This is peak clown world. And there's another one that you pulled up. Well, and of course, you know, that one doesn't really hurt my feelings too much, because if you are so into cat shows, you probably they did you a service by canceling you. Yeah, but, you know, Airbnb suspended all its operations in Russia and Belarus. Now, that's going to hurt a lot of people's pocketbooks because a lot of people depend on that income for their housing or they're doing rentals or something like that. So that's going to hurt a lot of average citizens just on the normal revenue. McDonald's, Starbucks and Coca-Cola leave Russia. Well, I guess that's going to help them become healthier, at least. So they probably won't miss that after they actually slim down and have a happier life. You know, and look, obviously people like to eat this junk, but at the end of the day, like having McDonald's is not that big a deal. But why is it why is it that corporations who you would think are all about money are leaving places just for money's sake? What's wrong with the company just saying, you know what, I don't care. I'm just going to serve people burgers. You know, I think it's narcissism because a narcissist cares the most. Their number one priority is their perception. It's their public image. And so perhaps there's a little bit of narcissism at play here where these multinational corporations care more about their public image and their perception rather than maximizing revenue. Or perhaps this is just a means to maximize revenue and they're really just money hungry. And they think that somehow pandering to whatever the current narrative is that's being promulgated by the fake news is the way in which they can maximize their revenue. But I think it's a mix of both. It's a mix of just wanting as much money as possible, but also the narcissistic qualities that you see associated with a lot of these corporations. They just care mostly about how they're being perceived. We have the I support the current thing. This is a great meme. And, and boy, is that true? It's just like whatever, whatever the corporate media just says, please support. It's just people are just so brain dead. They just, well, if corporate media is saying support it, let's support it. But, you know, while Coca-Cola can leave Russia, it can't leave this podcast, you know? And so I don't know if they're standing for Russia in this podcast, but, you know, there you go. Coca-Cola actually don't think they would want to be associated with our podcast. Maybe you should get an official statement from Coke. Coke, do you support the Baptist bias or do you want to leave the Baptist bias? We'd like for you to make a statement about that since you're so into geopolitics. But I think we have a couple more here. There's Apple and Google payment systems block Russians. Now that's a big one because a lot of people are moving to these phone payment systems. And of course, you know, Apple and Google are literally trying to take over the world so that they can just shut every single thing down. And if you have any kind of a biblical understanding, you realize that at some point there's going to be a man called the Antichrist. That's going to shut everyone down. That doesn't take his mark. The current thing. The current thing will soon be the mark of the beast and they will change their profile picture. And if you don't have that mark, it's going to be too late for you. And one thing that I think is interesting is when I was trying to think about this whole situation is a lot of people kind of say like, well, what do I do? But the reality is there's not really a lot you can do as a person because all these kings are setting themselves. All these corporations are doing their own thing. The majority of Americans don't care. They don't agree. They don't like this. They're not interested in all this junk that's going on. They wouldn't support all of this nonsense necessarily. It's really a handful of people that are making decisions. And then just all of their groupies, as it were, their online groupies and liberals and Democrats that are just these keyboard warriors that try to make it seem like the majority, the vast majority of Americans are on their side and believe everything that they say with all their fake polling and their fake data and their bots and everything else that's designed to basically propagandize the world. But ultimately, I feel like as an individual, there's not really anything I can do to just stop this war machine, to stop these individuals from doing their thing. You know, that's why it's important to get out of the carnal world and get into the spiritual world. Get plugged into a Baptist church, start reading your Bible, going out and preaching the gospel. If you want to make a difference, God gave us the opportunity to make a difference every single day. We can always open our mouth boldly to make the known the mystery of the gospel. Yet the world wants us to get so wrapped up in the current thing, the new thing, the war and all of this just nonsense that honestly we can't even really affect. And it's sad to say, like, I'm not trying to say this because I don't think that we shouldn't stand against these things or be vocal against them. I mean, we're making a whole podcast about it. FYI, what are you doing? But number two, we ultimately realize that it's a spiritual fight that we're in. These woke companies aren't going to get fixed. They're either going to be destroyed or, you know, by just their stupidity or they're going to be destroyed by the Lord Jesus Christ when he returns. But ultimately, they will be restored, destroyed. You can't sit here and attack yourself and stand. A house divided cannot stand is what the Bible teaches. And how can these corporations just continually attack their own customers, withdraw more and more clients, shut down more and more people and then stay in business, stay in power? It's it's a cancer that will eventually destroy itself. And you're only hurting average Russians. You're hurting lay people. What do they have to do with the government? They might not even necessarily agree with the invasion of Ukraine. And yet they're the ones being punished simply for being ethnically Russian or for living in the country. All of a sudden, they can't use their credit card. All of a sudden, they can't use Apple and Google payment programs. It's completely and utterly ridiculous. And I think it speaks to the fact that a lot of these corporations throw logic out the window simply to pander to the crowd that believes everything the news tells them. You know, when did we do this to the Saudis after 9-11? When did we prevent Saudis from using Visa, MasterCard? When did we prevent Saudis from using Apple and Google payment systems? Didn't happen. Right. Instead, we negotiated weapons deals with them. Instead, we imported their oil. Instead, we made Saudi princes that much more rich. But with regard to Russia, the elites feel justified in canceling even everyday citizens and making their lives that much more difficult. And it's not achieving anything. It's not like Putin's going to stop simply because of this cancel culture nonsense. Well, you know, war is such an ugly thing. How can you always decide that one side's right? I mean, it's like, is Ukraine always right or is it that Ukraine serves our own interests? And so we're just going to pretend like they're on the good side, they're on the right side, no matter what. And all of these people are just going to basically be destroyed. I like that comment. Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you, but but Ryan Urbanic said in the chat room, the NWO will let Ukraine be destroyed so they can take over banking system and put them in their debt slavery. That's an angle to this that is, I think, massively important. I agree with that. And of course, you know, it's not a one one trick pony. They can get warheads in there. They can, you know, they can attack Russia. They can sanction Russia, which will increase a lot of lobbyists interests and corporate interests. Then on top of that, they can get into the banking system, like Ryan Urbanic had had mentioned in the chat. And, you know, sometimes people want to make it a one issue situation, but it's never one interest. It's an amalgamation. Yeah, there's all kinds of hands that are reaching into that pot, all trying to get their own little share, all trying to get their own. Basically, Portion, it kind of makes me think of Proppers Chapter number one, where they're like cast my lot among us and let us all have one purse. It's like let's rally a handful of people and and let's basically just put Ukraine on the chopping block and let's all take a spoil spoils of war, which no one wants to talk about. You know, are really average Ukrainian citizens going to really reap the benefits of this war? Or is it going to be every other country that didn't actually go to war going to be reaping the benefits on the backs of Ukrainian soldiers and the war machine and basically putting Ukraine in just an incredible debt type situation? It seems pretty clear. And, of course, I'm sure America loves the fact that when it comes to NATO, you know, who's going to be supplying all these things from from a close proximity? It's all these European countries. You know, we're not in their backyard, so we don't have to necessarily supply anything that we don't want to because, hey, Germany, why don't you go ahead and give them a little bit? And, you know, it's funny to me, World War Two, Germany bad, Russia good and Ukrainian conflict, Germany good, Russia bad. It's just, you know, you just pick the names, just do whatever you want. They're just playing the men as the Bible. Exactly. Let's just pick a couple of people to fight each other and we'll just reap all the benefits and the profits and we'll demonize whoever we want to demonize and make ourselves the perfect hero. America's always good and always right. We would never kill innocent women and children. We would never bomb an entire city like Hiroshima and kill hundreds of thousands of people. Nagasaki and Hiroshima killing hundreds of thousands of people, including many women and children. Yet, you know, no one wants to talk about that. Nobody wants to talk about us putting a bunch of Japanese citizens in internment camps and being extremely racist during that time of war because America is always good. America always does that, which is right, Ben. We're almost seeing a version of that now with Russia. But regarding NATO, it's important to remember an attack on one is an attack on all. So we see that as well and how World War Three could potentially be the consequence of that rule. And also we see the motivation to expand it because the more NATO members there are, the more weapons deals there are to negotiate. I think we have a caller. Yeah, I was going to mention that if you wanted to go to this call. I think we have a caller and again, you can call in to three one Baptist. But we have Brandon joining us on the show. Brandon, you're on the Baptist bias. Hello. Hey, how's it going? It's going great. How are you doing? Doing good. Doing good. Where are you from? Houston. Houston. Oh, man, that sounds like a great church. Baptist Church. Yeah. So, brother Brandon, what do you got for us? Have you seen any of this propaganda for the Ukraine Russian conflict? Yeah, I was wanting to talk about these huge, massive billboards that I've seen that says, stand with Ukraine. You know, like the big electronic ones that have like, they can change the picture on them from ads to different types of things. So you've been seeing them down in Houston. Yeah, I've seen multiple different places. And I was just kind of curious, like, like who's paying for that or right. You know what I mean? Like, are we paying for that? Is it is a government tax dollars being spent on this stuff or what? I would not doubt it. But I surely doubt that the local advertising billboard company cares that much to waste money on standing with Ukraine. But I don't know. Who's playing out of their pocket to like, I want these advertisements to be put up on these huge, massive billboards to say stand with Russia. What if it was a Saudi Arabian oil company? What if we trace the money? It's literally a Saudi Arabian oil companies are putting a stand with Ukraine. I mean, would that at least change the mind of someone if they saw that? I mean, who has to be paying for this? I mean, does anybody even think about that? I mean, when you saw that that billboard for the first time, what were you thinking, Brandon? Honestly, this is a bit random, but it was I thought it was a crazy coincidence that the St. Louis Rams had the same color as they did recently on the Super Bowl. I know that was just I don't know how that would be related or whatever. But at first, when I first thought it seen it, I thought it was the St. Louis Rams new colors, because this year they had the blue and yellow colors. Yeah, the L.A. Rams. Like what? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah. They were St. Louis, right? No, they were in L.A. L.A. L.A. Rams. L.A., everything that's morals in L.A., right? Apparently, who cares about the NFL anyway? But I think we could see maybe why there's such a push for promoting Ukraine. There's many reasons, but this perhaps is one of them. There was a Newsweek article I found that said a Russian occupation would be devastating for LGBTQ Ukrainians. It always goes back to Jews and fags. And here we have another example where apparently Zelensky is a big time pro-sodomite advocate. He loves the sodomites. Russians don't. And in fact, you can't get married. They don't have sodomite marriage in Russia is what I'm trying to say. And obviously, some of that has deteriorated. But my point is we see a push for the Ukraine, I think, because of the fact that Ukraine is viewed as the pro-sodomite, pro-progressive, anti-God, filth promoter because of the fact that the West has chosen it. That's who the Ukrainians apparently stand with, at least, you know, not the individuals. We know that there's regions that don't, but the government for sure is pro-Western. Brandon, have you seen family members or friends or somebody say this stuff or co-workers? Yeah. They said that they just want to be there for the Ukrainian people. I was actually talking to one of my co-workers one time and I was just like, well, I kind of, to a certain extent, understand where Putin's coming from. He sees that Ukraine is trying to join the United Nations. He's just trying to protect himself. And in a way, he's getting surrounded by all these enemies. And I think he's just trying to defend himself in a way. You know, he sees that there are people making chess moves. And I asked him, like, have you ever played Risk before? I mean, he sees these people trying to move around him and they're just trying to, he's trying to mitigate, you know, damage in a way. Yeah. Well, you know, at the end of the day, you're not supposed to question the narrative. You're supposed to just go along with it. Change your Facebook profile picture to a Ukrainian flag. You're supposed to hate Putin. And look, I'm not saying that we're big Vladimir Putin fanboys or anything like that. We're just simply pointing out that we're not going to mindlessly regurgitate the talking points that have been fed to us forcefully by CNN and these other fake news outlets. And also, when we see this cancer culture, I should say cancel rather, my apologies, but I guess cancer culture kind of fits as well. But when we see this push, this propaganda, this incessant propaganda about how bad Russia is all of a sudden, you know, and it really it started in the 2016 election, the 2016 election with Russiagate when they promoted the fake news that Russia somehow, you know, hacked the elections and gave it to Trump. But my point is, when you see this advanced, this narrative advanced, you know, vehemently by people who are evil, it makes you think twice about what's really going on and what's really happening. Yeah, I thought Democrats were against war. Not anymore. Didn't that kind of shift? That's totally changed. If the Democrats are for any war, shouldn't that raise like every red flag in your mind? Yeah, I mean, you know, an Adam Schiff, the guy looks like a space alien. He said in Congress one time, we fight Russia abroad so that we don't have to fight them here. They're very much pro war. They want World War Three. They want a nuclear war. It's exactly what Jesus Christ talked about when he referred to wars and rumors of wars that will occur in the end times. Well, Brother Brandon, what do you you know, you hear all this stuff going on, but obviously we're supposed to fight a spiritual fight. You know, what do you what is your advice or tip? What do you think helps you during these kind of situations to still get plugged into the spiritual battle? I would say just read my Bible and, you know, listen to some good preaching to keep my mind set on the spiritual things rather than this carnal warfare and, you know, just keeping our eyes out and keeping, you know, good watch on things, but also just putting putting our priorities where they belong, you know, in the spiritual fight. Well, I really appreciate you calling in and and sharing your testimony. I didn't know that I hadn't seen the billboards down in Houston yet, so I guess I have to keep my eyes open. I'm guessing if it's in the Dallas, where there is in Houston might be everywhere. Probably. Well, thanks for calling in, brother. Brandon, you have a good night. All right. Anything else you want to say? No problem. You have to. That's it. God bless. Have a good night. Oh, I guess one thing, you know, I never heard Putin. Also, he said that he made, you know, homosexual propaganda illegal. That's right. He did. That's right. Good point. Thank you for bringing that up. I got to shut that down. I cancel that soon. That's good. Yeah, that might that might be what this is all about. Hey, we need to get we need to get Putin. I thought I might decide if anybody knows how I can send him one of those. We'll send it. You're going to make a new Airbnb. Yes. Right. Well, thanks for calling in, brother. Brandy. Have a good night. I think we have another caller that we can line up this evening. It's going to be Brian. I think we have Brian on the phone from steadfast. So we got a lot of we got some pure words, got some steadfast this evening. Do we have Brian on the line? Yes. How's it going? It's going good. Thanks for joining. I don't I don't watch, you know, the regular news. I just looking at all the pictures on the Ukraine war on YouTube. And they had said on there that Russia had sanctions on Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden and Hunter Biden. I was like, really? That did happen. That did, in fact, happen. And how could you blame them? I mean, why would you want those demons to be associated with you whatsoever? I'd sanction the hell out of them, too. Right. But that goes to show you they got some kind of hand in all this. Well, I wish America could sanction those individuals. Can we deport them to hell? Let's get rid of them, guys. Let's send them over there. Yeah, let's have a vote on that one. Adam Schiff, I mentioned him earlier, was raised in a Jewish family that moved to Scottsdale, Arizona, in 1970. Thank you to Brother Jacob. He's like the resident. That guy's a Jew source who sent me. I think he just guesses that all these people are Jews and just always right. And he's right. I didn't mean to derail the conversation, but I thought I would get that out there. Have you seen any of this propaganda, Brian? Have you seen anything, you know, driving around? The billboards in touch? Yeah. No, I haven't seen any. Oh, okay. I'm in Weatherford, so, you know, I don't get out a lot. I go to the job site and work and come home. I guess rural America, they don't really care about, do they? It's got to propagandize us in these cities all over each other, right? City folk. Yeah. You watch the TV. Well, if it goes to Weatherford, we're really in trouble. I know. Right? But then that's just me. I don't worry about anything that ain't at my front door, you know? Yeah. And that's the mentality that the entire country should have. You know, if it didn't affect us, why should we care? If someone came to your front door and set up a 50 cal, pointed it through the window, would you feel like you're being assaulted a little bit there, Brother Brian? Why sure. Of course. I do everything in my power to get it out of my yard. Well, this sounds like you're just a war criminal. You know, it just sounds like you're, you know, a Putin supporter, you know, by not wanting to just let people just set up all kinds of arms and military grade weapons right on your back door. Well, according to the view, he should be arrested. Yeah. That's what they said on the view. Exactly. But these things need to be, you know, before Christ can return, we're going to have a lot more of this go on. Yeah. Well, you know, again, it's about that spiritual fight getting plugged in. I think it's important to watch, pay attention. You know, the Bible tells us to watch and pay attention, but it also says a lot of things are going to happen. Wars and rumors are going to happen, but the end is not yet. Exactly. So it almost implies to me that we're going to see a lot more of this before we actually get to the absolute end where we kind of have someone rising, which it would kind of make sense if we kind of have just a war that's really. Permanating society and the world for a while that someone could kind of come from the ashes like an antichrist, uh, to eventually just conquer every, you know, conquer the ashes as it were. Yeah. And you know, Brian, you make a good point that all of this has to come to pass. And from the Christian perspective, we shouldn't be troubled. We shouldn't be afraid. We shouldn't be fearful of what the news is saying about all this. You know, at the end of the day, it was Jesus Christ who said, you shall hear of wars and rumors of wars. He said, see that you'd be not troubled for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom. And there shall be wars and famines, pestilences, et cetera. It talks about the beginning of sorrows in Matthew, chapter number 24, Mark 13, Luke 21. You can go to Revelation six to read about the four horsemen of the apocalypse, which also describes this time period. It's going to come to pass. There's going to be warfare. We're going to see world war three. It might be world war four by the time Daniel 70th week finally begins. And so we shouldn't be troubled because at the end of the day, we have the Holy Spirit of God. We have the word of God. We have the Lord Jesus Christ at our primary mission doesn't change no matter if there's a nuclear holocaust going on outside of these walls or not. Just getting more plugged into church and go show winning. Exactly. That's the only way we can change our nation is to win souls. Amen. I can't even add anything to that. Amen to that brother. I agree. Thanks so much for calling in brother Brian. I want to give you a round of applause. I like that talking point. That was a good talking point. Well, you have a good night. God bless. Thanks for calling in on the show. Don't try and call in. We might still get another caller two, three, one Baptist, two, three, one Baptist. It's not Russia or Ukraine. It's two through one to Baptist because it's the Baptist bias. And, uh, you know, even though we have a Baptist bias, our ultimate authority is always the word of God. You know, that's where our loyalty really stands. And that's what we always know is true and right. And so of course you can't eliminate bias, but you have to get the right bias and the right bias is coming from the word of God. It's coming from the Bible. It's not coming from CNN yet. It's not coming from NBC yet. They love to make themselves the authority. They love to tell you what's really going on. I think you had a clip from CNN. So it's going to really, uh, help us understand how they operate. And you know, the one thing I do love about the Bible is this when I'm reading, I never have a commercial interruption. Why don't you just hate those commercial interruptions? Well, let's see if we can play the CNN clip. I believe our production staff has got this thing ready. This is so hilarious. It's basically they're showing the Ukraine war. And then something happens that I believe is analogous to what corporate America is all about and how these crisis crisis like this is exploited just to make a few more extra bucks. Check it out. I can't do it. A good enough service. Just watch it for yourself. CNN exposing themselves for who they really are. When it comes to this, it might take a second to get that video, let's call in. I want to keep setting this up though. Okay. Right. What you're about. And whenever it gets, you know, whenever it's queued up and ready to go, it looks like it is. But I just want to say real quickly what you're about to witness, I think is analogous, not just to the military industrial complex, but I think it's symbolic of American media. Again, exploiting warfare to make a few extra dollars, exploiting warfare to enrich themselves. Let's watch. This is so funny. Get five bonus wings for $1 with any handcrafted burger only at Applebee brought to you by Applebees. Get some handcrafted wings right now. Half off over at Applebees. We are sponsoring this world war three broadcast right now. You know, while you're hearing warning signals and sirens, we're listening to Zach Brown band sing about a little chicken fry at Applebees. I can't stand chicken fry. You know, you just got to get that Texas, you know, you got to get to some country music while you're eating some Applebee. I mean, cause nobody loves microwave warmed over food better than Applebee's where you can basically be overcharged for just basically something that was nuked in the microwave that was frozen a few minutes before. Can we, can we play that one more time? It's just too funny. We could do just one last time, brother Tim, let me know, give me the thumbs up whenever it's ready. That is, go ahead. Just play it. If it's ready. Go ahead. Get five bonus wings for $1 with any handcrafted never frozen. It was a never, they didn't freeze it, but you know, when they put it on the truck and shipped it over, they didn't freeze it. You know, they preserve that beef. It's because it's not even made of real beef anymore. Probably. That's why it doesn't have to be frozen. It was just some kind of a plastic glue concoction that they just threw together, slapped on a burger microwave and handed you for $15. So you can stand with Ukraine so we can stand, you know, while they have to hear sirens and gun throwing off and bombs and missiles and everything else, we get a little bit of Applebee's. Yeah. And that's also something that it's analogous to the fact that the United States is provoking this war. People in the Ukraine are being killed and then here domestically people just gorging themselves on beer and chicken wings. Yeah. I mean, cause that's why Americans don't really care about anything is just because they're so fat and they just, just fill their gullet with just the latest propaganda. I mean, literally there's a fast food chain on every single corner of virtually every busy intersection in this country. And it really just shows their spiritual condition because they'll just force feed themselves anything. I mean, it doesn't even matter what's on the menu. It doesn't matter what the ingredients are. I mean, praise the Lord that no one's going to have to eat McDonald's chicken nuggets in Russia because no one knows what the heck is in those things. It's not chicken. I mean, that thing is the weirdest thing I've ever tasted. That's why they have to have like 18 dipping sauces because they're like, no one will just eat these chicken nuggets. I mean, we have to find some kind of a weird, disgusting thing to dip it in just to try and pallet it. Right. Whereas, you know, you have some like Chick-fil-A at least that chicken's good enough to just eat on its own. Anybody that eats McDonald's chicken nuggets basically has destroyed their taste buds. They basically have no self-respect and they basically just downgraded themselves to the point of just eating just plastic and glue or whatever concoction that they have that they're mixed up. They claim it's like 100% meat. But you know, what does that even mean to them? You know, the word meat in the Bible means food. So maybe they're just claiming that anything's food. I think we might have another caller coming in. It's just so funny. It's like Ukraine, you know, air raid signals and chaos brought to you by Applebee's. Yeah. Get a little bit of beer while you watch everybody else die. Right. We watch women and children die. And then we try to pretend like we didn't stoke any of this, that we're not the cause of this. I mean, you know, it's kind of like pointing out someone that needs to be injured or hurt, even though they're innocent. And then someone goes and does your bidding for them. And then you claim that there's some kind of a bad guy hiring a hit man against someone and then saying like, oh, can you believe that person died? It's just so sick how they play all the strings. No, it's ridiculous. And you know, it kind of reminds me of in Revelation chapter 18, how much she had glorified herself and lived deliciously. So much torment and sorrow give her for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen and am no widow and shall see no sorrow. Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, et cetera. This is the destruction of Babylon in Revelation chapter 18. But again, chaos going on over there and here I sit a queen here living deliciously here Hey, get 50% off your favorite wings at Applebee's. Keep bringing in all the exports, all the expensive things. We'll just keep paying for it and shelling it out as a, as a hoard. I think we have another caller. Here we go. Ryan urbanic. That's pretty close to Ukraine. Urbanic. Urbanic. I don't know. I don't know where he stands on this issue. Brother Ryan, you're on the air. Say hello. Hey. Ryan, did you see, did you see the Applebee's clip Ryan? I was pretty epic. I didn't know that company still existed. Do people eat at Applebee's? You know, I used to work at Chili's and we called it crapple bees. So I don't know if anybody still eats there or not, but the last time I ate there, it was pretty disappointing. I'll just be honest. I can't even figure out what their, what their demographic is. Is it a bar? Is it a restaurant? Is it, I don't even know what it is anymore, but yeah, I'm not sure. Last time I went there, I was waiting on discount tires and I went in and there was people smoking at the bar. I was like, do you think still do this? I think that their draw is there like 24 seven though, or something, or like they're open really late or something like that. Right. Maybe they're not 24 seven, but I think they're open a lot later than other restaurants. So it's just like, uh, eat nothing or go to crapple bees. And it's just like, Oh, you know, it's waffle house or this, you know, it's just like, well, I guess they're appealing to the waffle house crowd, right? It's the classy, it's the classy restaurant open at 2 AM or something like that. Well, some of this propaganda, have you seen any of this propaganda? Yeah, I think it's really interesting because it's gone along a lot with the COVID propaganda. It's just, you're hearing all this different stuff. You can get such different tales from, you know, what Russia is saying to what Ukraine saying to what we're saying. And I just, I think it's interesting. All the different news angles, like how do you know what's true and you're not there? Well, we know this is true. That's why our lives revolve around this. What do you, what is something that you saw or is there something that we had brought up that maybe you thought was interesting or, uh, you know, kind of struck your fancy fill some gaps for us. Oh, there's so much stuff coming to mind, but I think it's interesting because I worked with a lot of, you know, the conservative Republican, so-called Christian, and it's just like, for them, it's just a huge attack on Biden. It's like Biden's weak. If we had Trump, none of this would happen. You need to get Trump back in office. Their only answers is, you know, Trump and politics, and that's the only thing they're interested in. When the only truth that we know for sure is the Bible. And we need, you know, Christians to take back over the nation so that we can have God's blessing on us. But nobody wants to talk about that. They just want to talk about all the drama, you know, with Biden and Trump and our politicians. Yeah. How does a Christian, how does a Christian, you know, rationalize the idea that a non-Christian is going to be the answer to any, any problem or any, I mean, doesn't the Bible say that, you know, the, the righteous are not supposed to have fellowship with the unrighteous. I mean, what fellowship at righteousness with unrighteousness, what Concord of Christ with Belial, what part had he that believeth with an infidel. And even if you don't want to say that Trump's necessarily like a Satanist or something, or is just, uh, the devil, he's certainly not a believer. I mean, what part had he that believeth with he that is an infidel? I mean, obviously Trump, his favorite book of the Bible, second or two Corinthians. I can't even say it wrong. You don't think he saved though? Hmm. Trump? Um, you know, I don't think he even claimed. Didn't he say that he would ask Jesus for forgiveness if he ever sinned? Yeah, he did say I'm paraphrasing. He said, he said, he's never asked God for forgiveness. He doesn't need to. Right. Yeah. Cause he's sinless. Yeah. He said he couldn't think of anything he would need to ask forgiveness for. All right. Well, you know, I put on Sean Hannity the other day, just to kind of see what he was saying. It is like the most war mongering television program, perhaps, and all of TV right now. I mean, it was like the just straight up the entire show. We need to fight Putin. Why aren't we fighting him harder? Biden's being too weak. He should be nuking him. Putin's a thug. He needs to die. You had Lindsey Graham calling for his assassination, calling for his assassination. It's just like these people so badly want world war three. It's unbelievable. Why don't you go send your own sons and daughters to go fight overseas? How about when Facebook came out and said it's okay to threaten Russians' lives on Facebook now? Well, we only stand against the hate speech that we don't like. It's okay to hate Christians and Russians. There's so much cognitive dissonance involved in all this. You had brought it up earlier. You're like, well, what's your reaction to people who are outraged about this, but not other things? It's like you have Israel killing Palestinians, bullying Palestinians on a daily basis. Nobody cares. But then the Ukraine thing, everybody's got Ukraine flags. You know, I saw Ukraine flags. I was driving to work the other day. I saw Ukraine flag to four or five giant Ukraine flags flying along the freeway. It's just like such cognitive dissonance. You're outraged about that. But not these other. What about Yemen? What about what the United States has done in Yemen? So we got Brother Ryan on the phone. Yeah. I mean, how does this work with Israel's invading and taking over Palestinian land? Good. Russia invading Ukraine, taking over Ukrainian land bad. Because essentially, it's just framed whoever we like. It doesn't really matter the actual consequences or the actions. It's about who's good and who's bad, who's lining our pockets, who's not lining our pockets. Ryan, do you know what might be the difference between those two such scenarios? Well, obviously, you know, you got Israel's got chosen people, so they deserve to destroy those Palestinians. So that's that's obvious. But I'm being facetious, obviously. But I honestly, I think the Ukraine thing happened. God knows what it is. You know, is the old I'd be going to get a Ukraine flag. Next time you look at the timeline, we saw that COVID was leading and, you know, disappearing around January, the beginning of February. And then everybody started bringing up like, hey, I wonder where all this money went. I wonder what's going on with all this COVID stuff, with all these vaccines. And then, wow, all of a sudden, there's this whole war with Ukraine. I'm just perfectly timed out to hide inflation and all the COVID fraud and trillions of dollars moving around. Didn't we give Ukraine even more? Didn't we just pass a stimulus giving Ukraine like, like 1.5 trillion or something like that? So Congress just approved and then and then Biden just signed it today, 13.8 billion to Ukraine on a 1.5 trillion dollar spending plan to cover us for the rest of the year. So in times of mass inflation, we just printed another 1.5 trillion, giving almost 14 billion to Ukraine, which I think is like a tenth of their GDP. So we're just going to pump them full of money. You know, I was interested because there's a lot of countries in the world that we're not talking about. I was thinking about our our close neighbors, Mexico, and I looked up an article that says Mexico will not send weapons to Ukraine or sanction Russia. We are pacifists. And it's like, why can't we have that approach? Why can't we just say like, you know, we're not going to be in it? Because obviously there's a lot of corporate interest. There's a lot of other things going on behind the scenes. These people are not just so good. I mean, are we really supposed to believe that Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and all of these politicians are just so kind hearted and so tender hearted and just so loving that we just really want to stand with Ukrainians. And we just we feel so bad for Liz versus Zelensky, you know, the Vlad. We just want to be there with them because we're just such moral, godly, Christian, upstanding citizens. And we, you know, just we don't want to gain anything from this. We don't want to give them billions of dollars and then come speak and do some kind of speaking engagement and they pay us back like three or four million dollars coming and speaking for them or anything like that. We don't want any kind of cut off the top of all these military weapons that we give to them where the company that got the contract from the government to supply those weapons ends up giving us and lining our pockets through lobbyists interest. We don't want any of that. We just want to make sure that these Ukrainian citizens are taken care of and loved for and cared for. So that's why we provoke wars with Russia and cause them to invade them. And if paying six dollars a gallon for gas is the price we have to pay to stop tyranny, then so be it. That right there, folks, is what I like to call a false sense of moral superiority. It's the piousness of some of the most evil, wicked demons on the face of the planet makes me sick to my stomach. I mean, imagine, Ryan, if I said, you know what, your next door neighbor, I went into his house and I planted a bunch of missiles and rockets that are aimed at your house. And I can fire them whenever I want. You know, it would seem kind of logical that you might like go over to your neighbor's house and just kind of see what's going on. Like you're kind of worried about that particular situation. And then if you actually go into your neighbor's house or you go over to a neighbor to talk to him, I'm like saying, well, Ryan's such a bad guy. He's just attacking this guy for no reason. He's just wanting to, you know, basically hurt him and harm him. And can you believe the gall of Ryan going in there and trying to make sure that, you know, his he doesn't have weapons aimed at his head or his house or his dwelling place? I mean, this is the kind of nonsense that America is propagandizing and it really just makes me sick. Now, I want to ask you, did you know anything about Zelensky before this conflict? Have you even heard his name? Did you know anything about Ukraine before this? I mean, I know a little bit about Ukraine, but it was mostly through the whole Hunter Biden shenanigans where he's working for companies. Yeah, well, he nearly has zero oil experience, but got paid like millions of dollars to be a consultant in Ukraine. Well, Zelensky was a former actor who's now the president of this company. And I'm not going to show the video clip. It's really bad. But I didn't even believe it. But then I unfortunately saw it with my own eyes, which I wish I could forget for all of eternity. But their president is literally in a music video dancing in high heels, leather like skin tight girl pants, you know, if there's a thing and basically no shirt, some kind of a weird like, just like shoulder pad thing. He looks like the biggest trans freak I've ever seen with other men. And they're doing this provocative, disgusting tranny dance on a stage. That's the literal president of this Ukrainian situation. And I've seen people sharing this meme. And it looks like a real picture. I don't know if it's real. But it's like saying make Kiev like, you know, sodomite again. I'm paraphrasing. But basically, you know, it's like a rainbow flag and it's like on the back of a military soldiers backpackers is there some it's just like, you know, what are we really fighting for? What is the liberty and freedom that we're fighting for here? Are we fighting for women and children to be able to go to the store and buy food and clothing? Are we fighting for a bunch of perverts to be able to keep preterizing children? I mean, what if I said, hey, we're going to stop you from going through war so that predators can take advantage of you? I mean, how is that any better? Yeah. What do you say to that, Ryan? Well, it wouldn't be surprising since the US is like the number one cheerleader spraying sodomy and filth all over the world that we would be able to support a nation that's leader is involved in such things. So unfortunately, it's a shame to our nation that we'd be willing to support that. But it is the nation that we live in. You know, I don't want people to get the right the wrong idea. It's not like I'm Putin's number one fan over here. You know, I could really honestly, I feel like I could care less. I wish we would take Mexico's approach and just say, you know what, Russia has problems. They're Orthodox, which is a false religion has a false gospel. We have Ukraine, which has like a literal tranny puppet that's been just placed in a position of power. And as American citizens, we should put pressure on our leaders to say we're not going to go to fight with these people. We don't want to do all these stupid sanctions. We don't want to constantly wreck our economy to cover up for your Biden inflation. All of your mistakes. We want to just stay out of it. And again, the voice of the people, though, doesn't really matter because I don't even think our elections are real anymore. Well, I and it's funny to me, I used to tell people that I didn't think the elections were real like 20 years ago, like 15 years ago. I didn't think that they were real mainstream now. And and, you know, now it's like a lot more people have kind of started saying, like, I think there's something off with these because you go back 15, 20 years. There was counties that would be literally voting over 100 percent of the county. And they've always had dead voters. They've always had these things. And they've only had to have a certain select number of counties that they commit some kind of a fraud to get their guy in. And you know, it's just the Bible rings true. The kings of the earth are setting themselves. So he's just a puppet. You know, I'm not even saying Putin's not, you know, self-appointed or put in there. And I personally don't think that we should pick sides and say Russia's better. And certainly not some tranny dressed freak dancing weirdo is better. But we should just totally stay out of it. Sounds like you got a false prophet type of dog and we don't need to be part of either one. I mean, it made me think of a verse that I looked up earlier talking about a man that's that's meddling with strife, not belonging to him. You know, he's passing by and he's meddling with strife, not belonging to him, that he's going to get his he that take the dog by the ears, you know, he's going to get bit. And so basically, you know, we shouldn't get involved in these type of situations. A lot of Americans are going to potentially die so that a tranny drag wearing freak can keep dancing in Kiev and make it clear or whatever that they want to do. Make it clear again. You know, this is just you need to watch the sodomite deception. And you know what? I want to send one to Putin. I'll send one to Zelensky, too. Anybody know how I can send a sodomite deception to Zelensky? He's got his name all over that film. Well, here's a Jew break. Jew commercial break real quickly here, Vladimir Alexandrovich Zelensky was born to Jewish parents on twenty five January nineteen seventy eight in Kyiv, then in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic. And there you go. Hey, there's a boy, isn't it? Go ahead, Ryan. Oh, sorry. I was just saying, you know, American American wars. We like to join and overthrow their government and destabilize their nation and make them weak. And this is a perfect scenario for NATO and a new world order in America because you get to destroy Russia's economy, which has been right. So all these Russians, people that agree or disagree with the war, regardless their lives being destroyed, their economies destroyed. And then you get Ukraine. They're going to be destroyed. And the IMF and the World Bank will step in. Oh, well, let me help you put your country back together and they can maybe just take over. Like they did with all the other nations, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Libya, all these nations just get sucked into the new world order, whether they want to or not. Well, here's the thing that I think a lot of people, you know, that are curious about or they're not sure what to do, but in these situations, you got a lot of people out there like Alex Jones. You have people like that are more popular. Steven Crowder. You have Mark Dices of this world. You have the Steve Bannon's. You have the Roger. Is it Roger Stone, Roger Stone, Roger Stone's. You have you have a lot of these talking heads that act like they have the solution that we need to get out there and vote. Some of them are saying they have other solutions like buying vitamins, you know, super male vitality somehow going to fix the problem. But you know, and I think a lot of people, including us, you know, we've listened to some of these people. We paid attention to the things they have to say. But don't you think it's important for us to still try to kind of stay away from even their talking narrative so that we can stay spiritual? Because I don't find that any of these individuals ever say, you know, get into church more, read the Bible more, go so any more. In fact, I almost feel like Alex's has an opposite message, like get out of church and get all churches that, you know, you basically didn't abide to me or something. Yeah. Buy more storage, storable food or something like that. I mean, you are the resistance. We are the resistance. We didn't stop making the frogs scary. Yeah. It's like instead of worrying about frogs being gay, how about the entire country of Ukraine? Why don't we stop making it gay? You know, why? Why is Alex just so concerned with frogs rather than than children today? I mean, you got literal drag queen story are going on in your own city that you're not fighting. You're fighting. It's frogs. Right. This is this is nonsense. I mean, frogs, they don't even know what's going on. I mean, we really, really concerned with what a frog does. I mean, a dog will hump anything. You know, it's not you're not going to fix a dog, a dog's in return to its own vomit again is what the Bible says. But you know what? You can save children by preaching them the gospel and getting them saved before the dog praise on them. But I wanted to get your thoughts. You've probably got some experience. You've heard some of these people, right? You've listened to some of them. How do you kind of, you know, stay informed while yet not necessarily falling for this Christian Republican narrative? You kind of brought this up, even your co workers are kind of sucked into this trap. How do you try to maintain that balance or, you know, still stay spiritual? To me, it's a little bit easier. And I just kind of enjoy the thinking about all the different scenarios that are going on. But, you know, being a Christian that's actually saved and knows the Bible and focus on spiritual things. That's why we can have that peace. And, you know, Alex Jones doesn't have that piece, even Crowder doesn't have this piece, all these conservative talking heads, they don't have a piece that we can have as Christians to understand there's going to be drama in the world. The devil is the ruler of this world right now, and he's going to cause all these problems. But for us, we know that we win at the end, that we have God on our side. And it's our job to go out and preach the gospel. And the good that can come from all this, you know, chaos and negativity is that people will search for the truth, people will turn to God, you know, more people will get in church in hard times, rather than good times. And if that's what God has to do to destroy our country, so that people will start paying attention, then so be it, you know, if we all have to suffer for that, so that people get saved and get in church, I say, even so come. But I think the biggest thing when it comes to separating is just realizing that, you know, we're not of this world, you know, I'm just passing by. I'm just watching the drama, but in the end, you know, I'm with God, and he's going to take care of us. I think that's a good approach. It kind of makes me think in Mexico, while our whole country might be on board, we as an individual can stay pacifist and say, you know what, I don't want to get in this fight. I don't want to get in this conflict. There's evil on both sides of this equation. And in fact, I kind of feel like the propaganda is probably worse than the other side is actually being portrayed. And I'm going to get into the spiritual battle that's going to kind of that's going to kind of help you stay away from even future conflict, because I don't think this is the end. Obviously, China is kind of helping Russia. They may be the next one on the chopping block. You know, there might be other countries that we, you know, Palestinians have been bad Middle East has been bad, China could be bad, Japan could get bad again, you know, there could be other countries that we want to demonize, exploit and take advantage of. And you know, nobody really has the answer on what's going on. I don't think anybody knows exactly what's going on except for God. We took a survey, and we had 135 votes, and it said, who's the instigator of this war? Number one was NATO states with 58%. Number two was other with 26%. Russia 10% Ukraine at seven. You know, here's an interesting food for thought. How about just the devil? Who's behind this war? I mean, aren't all these people at the end of the day, just pawns of the devil. And you know, I think a lot of people think that, well, it's, you know, it's the United States, the government, it's Biden, Biden can't even dress himself, probably, you know, Biden, even though worries Kamala Harris is so stupid, she's obviously not pulling the strings on any of this stuff. And I don't even think the Clintons are really that intelligent to make and pull the strings, they probably are just the face of their particular little club, their little group, there's gonna be men behind the curtain, as it were in these situations. It's not just going to be these GC pings, Putin's Zelensky, we realize that all these people are just simply puppets of the wicked one, the god of this world is blind to the minds of them which believe not. And so it's important for us to realize the real enemy is the devil. And he's putting his minions in these positions of power. It's the spiritual wickedness in high places to try and bring in the filth like sodomy to try and bring in the filth like war and these crimes against humanity that are being perpetuated. And it takes a bottom level grassroots movement of preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ, reaching the individuals in our community and in our area, and having a call back to the Word of God in the Bible, that's going to be able to fight against this spiritual wickedness. But you're not going to replace the devil's minions, the devil is the one that's pulling the strings. Exactly. And just to back you up, in Daniel chapter number 10, it tells us in verse number 20, then said he, knowest thou wherefore I come unto thee, and now will I return to fight with the prince of Persia. And when I am gone forth, lo, the prince of Grecia shall come, but I will show thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth. And there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael, your prince. I do believe that the scriptures tell us a lot of these global leaders are actually controlled by demons. I do think that the devil puts his minions in positions of authority in order to advance his agenda. And we see that leading to what ends up happening in the end times, courtesy of the Antichrist himself. The Bible says in Revelation chapter six in verse number four, and there weren't out another horse. This is the second seal. And there were not another horse that was red and power was given to him that sat there on to take peace from the earth and that they should kill one another. And there was given unto him a great sword. And so, yeah, there are demons that are in control of the politicians today. And all of it is leading to the end times when the Antichrist, who's inhabited literally by the devil, which is why he's called the son of perdition, takes control. He rises to the top of a new world order power structure. And we see that when that second seal is open, that peace is taken from the earth. There's world war, there's catastrophe. And I think that there's catastrophe for a purpose. It's order out of chaos. This is necessary for the Antichrist to come in at the midpoint and declare himself to be God. It's all just a pretext for him to take over as that false Messiah. And so when we see these events come to pass from the Christian worldview, the thought that ought to come to our minds, especially as those who are post-trib pre-wrath is this, we're just getting that much closer to the return of Christ. Yeah, brother Ryan, do you have any verses that you want to share with us when you kind of think about this situation? Something that, you know, maybe helps you or kind of encourages you during this kind of turmoil? I'm trying to think of something that would be very relatable. I can't think anything specifically, but I can certainly relate to that, you know, the truth movement and people that might be tuning in and seeking the truth. And I think the problem with that is that if they follow down these other paths, like Alex Jones and these other people, and they're not seeking the truth of Jesus Christ, he said, I am the way, be true and the life. You know, we have to follow Christ. And when we do that, that gives us that peace. And without Christ, we're never going to find that peace. So those that truly are seeking for the truth will end up getting saved, will end up hearing about the Bible and believing the truth. And then we can have that peace. But without that, there won't be peace, you know. If you live in this world and you're not a Christian today, I couldn't even imagine what it would feel like, you know, your world would be falling apart. Well, like I said before, we're just sojourners, we're just passing through. And knowing that and, you know, being strong in your faith and being a strong Christian, you can, your co-workers, your family, everybody around you will see that and they'll want that peace that you have. They'll want to know, you know, why you're okay with everything going on. And that's an opportunity for you to show them the truth, you know, get them safe so they can have that same peace. Yeah, the peace that passes all understanding. I think it's a great point you make about truth in the sense that we all kind of want to know the truth about these situations. But the only way to truly figure out what's going on is to realize the truth of the Bible, that there's, that the Lord Jesus Christ is the Savior, and that it's a simple faith and trust in Christ that saves us, not our works or our self effort. And that there's an enemy, a real enemy, the devil, who wants us to be deceived and not hear the gospel, not hear the truth. And everything's just a distraction. All this war, inflation, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, the media, movies, Hollywood, everything is just a complete Applebee's. Applebee's, Zac Brown Band, it's a distraction from the gospel. It's a distraction from hearing how to be saved. And it's to try and get anybody and everybody to think about everything but the Bible, anything and everything about Christianity. And we need to get Christians focused back on the gospel and the Word of God because I feel like our world's only getting crazier. It's been getting crazier, but it's going to keep getting crazier, bigger rumors of more war, more pestilence, more evil, more propaganda, more nonsense from Zelensky dancing around like a faggot. And it's easy to get drawn in and sucked into all this junk, but we need to believe that the only thing that matters is preaching the gospel because that's all that does. You said, I'm just a sojourner, I'm just a passing through. It's what you brought up earlier. I really liked that. You know, if you kind of get a looser grip on the things of this world, who cares? You know, and Colbert's like, Colbert's like, I'll pay $15 a gallon of gas, you know, because I have a Tesla. And it's like, well, if I have to pay $15 a gallon of gas to drive across the city to go preach someone the gospel, then that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make. But you know what, I'm not willing to drive for $15 a gas to Saudi Arabia and can have a little nicer magic carpet to fly around on. So, you know, I'm not interested in all of the propaganda and the lies that are going on. In fact, I'll just get on a bicycle and ride my bicycle to my neighbor's house and preach him the gospel of Jesus Christ with a Bible, the King James Bible, which is the most popular book in human history, the most accessible book in human history, you get one for a dollar. If you don't have a King James Bible, email me and I will mail you one. I'll mail you a Sodomite Deception DVD, you know, because we're not here to sell the truth. We're here to give it out. Exactly. Amen. The Bible tells us in Ephesians chapter 6, famous verse in verse 12, where we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Well, I really appreciate you calling in. Go ahead, Ryan. Go ahead, Ryan. Oh, sorry. I was just, I was trying to think of the exact verse because I didn't want to misquote it, but the verse that was coming to my mind was in 2nd Timothy chapter 1, verse 7 says, For God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. So it's the devil that causes diffusion, it's the devil that wants us to fear, but that's not the spirit that God gives. God gives us that spirit of power, love, and a sound mind. I appreciate y'all. Yeah. Thanks so much for calling in. Thanks for being on air with us for a while, sharing a lot of Bible, and we look forward to seeing you again, and you have a good night. You know, I feel like we could talk about this for a really long time. I'd go another two hours. Oh, man, there's so much to talk about. There's so many videos, there's so much propaganda, there's so much lies, but, you know, and I think it's important to expose some of this. I think it's important to talk about a little bit. You know, the Bible talks about watching. You know, the Lord Jesus Christ tells us to watch these things and to pay attention and to notice them. But we don't want to get our affections on these things. We don't want to get so wrapped up in these things where that's all we care about, that's all we're thinking about, or if it's even affecting our attitude, you know, to the point where we think that, you know, we're worried, you know, the Bible talks about casting our care upon him, free care for us, you know, and he, you know, his, his yoke is easy and his burden is light, and we don't want to get so wrapped up in the carnal things, worrying about our 401k, worrying about our house, worrying about inflation, worrying about gas prices, worrying about these things, because, you know, if you, if you believe that we're Babylon, nothing bad, I mean, Babylon's still importing goods till the bitter end, you know, so it's like, and those of us that are saved will get raptured out before Babylon's even nuked anyways. So really, you don't have to worry about your precious little, you know, house and 401k and all this stuff getting stripped from you prematurely. The Antichrist will do that, you know, but once, once the Antichrist comes on the scene, you're going to be fighting for your life. I mean, it's going to get real, real quick, and at the end of the day, though, you're going to lose it. You will lose your 401k, you will lose your house, you will lose all of your goods, it's all going to burn up, you will die one day, and why not go out with a bang? Why not go out and say, you know what, I didn't live for this world, I didn't live for the pleasures of this life, I wasn't deceived by the, by riches or the cares of this world, you know, what I did is I just got more spiritual. The more carnal the world gets, the more spiritual I got, so I could be a more bright and shining light in such a dark world. You know, do you have another verse you wanted to share with us? I think I want to give people spoilers as to how this all ends. Go for it. The destruction of America. I do believe that the United States is Mystery Babylon described in the book of Revelation. Jeremiah chapter 50, though, specifically, is relevant to this podcast. But it says in verse number 22, a sound of battle is in the land and of great destruction. Verse 23, how is the hammer of the whole earth cut asunder and broken? How has Babylon become a desolation among the nations? Obviously, the near future application would be the Babylonian Empire. But I do think that you can make the connection to the end times Babylon in Jeremiah chapter 50 and chapter 51 as well. And I think that it's appropriate that Babylon is described as the hammer of the earth. To me, that's what the United States is like. It's the hammer of the earth provoking foreign military intervention for the purpose of enriching ruling class elites. Is that biblical? That's the question that you might be asking. And of course, the answer is no. Remember, this podcast is called what? The Baptist Bias. What's the Baptist bias with regard to foreign military intervention, with regard to provoking these countries that have done nothing to us into warfare? What's the Baptist bias with regard to regime change and nation building? Habakkuk 2.12, it says, woe to him that builded the town with blood and stablisheth a city by iniquity. The United States is guilty of establishing cities by iniquity. It's guilty of building a town with blood, the nation building and regime change that the entire Western world, led by America, has provoked and has advocated for is wicked as hell. And it's not what the Bible prescribes for nations. Ultimately, we ought to look at this situation through the lenses of scripture. And if you want to have a Baptist bias, here's how you could do it. Read your Bible and it'll tell you exactly what reaction you ought to have to the Ukraine crisis rather than the reaction that CNN wants you to have, which is running around like a scared, decapitated chicken, not knowing what to do. Jesus said, see that ye be not troubled. You know, as we are kind of concluding, someone asked in the chat, you know, what would you say to people that are kind of caught in this particular conflict, like the soldiers that are already in the military? People that are kind of forced into this type of conflict? I think a couple thoughts and I'll get your feedback. Okay. First Corinthians seven. The Bible says, let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called art thou called being a servant care not for it, but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather it says for he that is called in the Lord, being a servant is the Lord's Freeman. Likewise also he that is called being free is Christ servant here bought with a price. Be not ye the servants of men, brethren, let every man where and he's called there and abide with God. Now in this context, you know, at first Corinthians chapter number seven, we're kind of a dealing with marriage specifically. Okay. So I don't want to mislead the audience here. It's mostly about marriage, but he kind of just gives like a general principle of the fact that wherever you kind of find yourself, you kind of need to just stick with what you got. Like, and I think of this and being in a couple ways, you know, whatever country you're in, you know, really try to evangelize that area. Don't feel like, Oh, well now I have to go somewhere else or now I have to go to a foreign country that I don't know anybody. I don't know the language. That's where I need to be. You know, God's put you in the place that he wants you for a reason oftentimes. So if you find yourself in this situation and you're saved, you know, it's best to just do the most that you can in the position you're in preaching the gospel to those that are in your life, the circumstances that you have. But it does say if you have the opportunity to be free to use that rather meaning like if you can get out of a bad situation, that's better. You know, if you're kind of stuck in a bad situation, you need to essentially do that. I don't think that being in a mill in the military is just sinful or wrong necessarily. Okay. Because obviously God had a military. You know, the Bible talks about nations defending themselves. So there's going to be a need for a military, but you know, even our own military is supposed to take a vow to uphold the constitution and to fight against enemies, foreign and domestic. And today it's a sad thing that they're literally taking these vows and then they don't really uphold them because I feel like there's probably a lot of domestic enemies that should be dealt with or handled and they don't really care about that. But we also see in the Bible a time where there's a man named Joag and he rats out David who was fleeing from King Saul. And he basically kind of makes it seem like there's this priest who helped David escape and is like plotting against Saul. Well, Saul ends up then using that information and telling all of his soldiers to kill this priest and to kill all the priests that helped David. And the soldiers stand down. They just say like, no, we're not going to just kill these people. That's not right. We don't agree with that. And it kind of shows that there's a boundary where soldiers would not cross that particular boundary. Now, I'm sure there was consequences to disobeying Saul's order there. I'm sure that wasn't like an easy decision. I'm sure there was some kind of difficulty or struggle there. But, you know, at the end of the day, we will all have to stand before God and we'll have to be judged. Now, if you're unsaved, every sin that you've ever committed, you're going to have to give an account therefore of. Now, if you're saved, you don't have to necessarily give an account for your sins, but your works will be judged whether it be good or right. And I certainly wouldn't want to face the Lord, you know, in this life or in the next for some kind of a war crime. You know, and again, some people would say, well, you know what? That's a sin. So they won't have to give an account in Judgment Day. Yet there's a God that judges in the earth. And you know, David and other men were punished for being very bloody men. You know, Joab, the son of Zair Uraya killed a lot of people in anger. Simeon and Levi killed people in wrathful anger. And they were punished by God in this life on this earth. So you can have people who are saved, commit horrible sins. They're going to see some kind of a punishment, some kind of consequence. I would rather suffer the consequence of disobeying man and being right with God than having to explain to God why I'm just killing people while I'm still being I'm just following orders. You know what? You're supposed to obey the higher powers. And if if people are just, you know, killing carte blanche without thinking about it, no questions asked, man, woman, boy, child, girl, you know, the guy who dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima, I don't know if he's saved or not. But you know what? Those lives he's going to have to give an account thereof. He's probably already dead. So you know, in his life, he did. But just I'm sure he probably couldn't sleep. I'm sure that that plagued him. You know, just all the people that he killed. And in fact, most people that have been in a war situation where they actually killed people, even just men, just you know, the other soldiers, it gives them nightmares and terrors. And it just it, you know, they're scarred. They don't want to talk about it. They have PTSD. There's a lot of evil that comes from these, you know, wars and these situations of conflict and battle. And so, you know, I'm not saying that it's, it's wrong to kill someone, you know, in a certain situation, a self defense situation, or that war couldn't be justified. But you know what, I don't want to go in the Middle East and just start shooting 12 year olds, you know, in their house, after I've invaded their country to fight the war on, you know, weapons of mass destruction to fight the 911 war. I thought that I think that's an unrighteous war. And you know, I would just suffer the consequences of just saying I am not going to fight this. But you know, that's for every person to be fully persuaded in their own mind. You know, it's easy for me to say because I'm not in that situation. But you know, you will have to face the consequences of your action. And God is going to hold you accountable. You're going to reap what you sow. And so I think you got to exercise a lot of caution there. And really warn people that are even thinking about the military, like you might get put in this really stupid situation, this really bad situation, you probably just avoid military. What do you think about this question of, you're kind of caught in the military, there's kind of this war conflict? I mean, what do you think about that? I think you summed it up well, obviously, it's easy for me, like you had said, to make comments having not been in that situation before. And as someone who's never going to be in that situation, but it just comes down to the principle that I would apply to not just this scenario, but all scenarios of life, it's better to obey God rather than man. And I would say in general, not just with the military, but perhaps in a job or any situation that you might find yourself in, if you're being asked to do something that would be a direct violation of scripture, that it would be best to then find a way out of it, you know, because at the end of the day, it's better to obey God rather than men. We obey the higher powers. There's a certain authority structure that we should follow in our lives. If it's out of balance or if there's someone who's telling us to do something that is in direct conflict with the word of God, then that would be a situation I try to avoid. And I think when it comes to the military, you could argue that being sent to Russia, perhaps if that ever happens, or being sent to the Middle East to go murder innocent Iraqis would fall into that. It's better to obey God rather than man scenario. And you might want to find a way to avoid something like that. I know there have been people who've decided to leave the military even dishonorably so they could avoid taking the clot shot. So there are a number of different reasons, I think, why somebody would want to seek a different route for their lives. And ultimately, if they're doing it because they would rather obey God than man, then all I could do was say, I respect that decision. Yeah, as long as you're not doing Jeff Durbin and saying you're sodomite so you can get out of the military. I think I'm probably going to say that it's a good caveat. That was that was that was a bad move. But other than that, yeah, you know, you obviously it's a tough situation, you know, and sometimes people don't realize that you can put yourself in what's considered a doomed situation. You're kind of just there's no good option. And I preached a whole sermon on that called No Good Option. I don't know if it's out there on YouTube or not because everything gets deleted. I'm pretty sure. But if you can find it out there, no good option, you'll kind of realize that it's important the decisions you make, especially when you're young, because you can paint yourself into a corner. You can put yourself in a bad situation where you don't have a good option. And, you know, often you can kind of sympathize with the fact that they have no good option. But it's like people ask you, you know, do I take a bullet in the left arm of the right arm? It's like, you know, right. Does it seem like a good option there? You know, I don't I don't really know what you want me to do or to tell you. And to me, because we're talking about people who are in the U.S. military and what they might do if they get caught up in this and maybe end up being asked to go fight some unjust war on a foreign land. And it just it really makes me angry. We talked a lot about the military industrial complex on this podcast. We talked about the United States provoking conflict and things of that nature. How great would it be if instead of sending drones? To go murder innocent people, men, women and children in the Middle East and elsewhere. How great would it be if instead the United States sent people to go preach the gospel? You know, this. Idiotic Fox News Baptist mentality that says, let's just bomb all the Muslims and let God sort them out later is not what the Bible teaches. Instead of raining down bombs on their faces, making them hate the West even more than they already do. How about we go there and preach the gospel? How about we go get them saved? How about we help them to understand that Islam is a false religion founded by a pedophile? How about we go to Russia and we go get some people saved there? How about we spread the gospel of Jesus Christ all over the world instead of the U.S. military going around killing people who weren't a threat to us domestically and exporting filth and and smut courtesy of Hollywood? Then maybe I'd put up an American flag outside my home, but that's not the case. Well, and again, you know, God works in mysterious ways. So sometimes the only hope, the only light that any of these people in these in these foreign countries will have is maybe an American soldier wrongfully being there in a bad conflict, doing a lot of bad stuff. But you know what? You have that moment of walking to the new man. You rip out a Bible, you preach him the gospel. There's never a bad time to preach the gospel. And even if you're in the wrong side of the conflict, even if you're making a lot of bad mistakes, you know, love cover the multitude of sins. And there's been some there's some weird stories in the Bible that God used to essentially bring glory to him or get people saved. He used very sinful people in bad situations. And so, you know, at least I'll give you the hope out there that even if you do find yourself on the wrong side of the battle, even if you do find yourself in a bad conflict, made some mistakes, you know, and if you know how to get someone saved and you have the opportunity, whether they be Russian, Ukrainian, Saudi Arabian, it doesn't matter. Even, you know, from Israel, you know, open up the Bible, preach them the gospel, you know, try to get them saved because they're supposed to. That's what real love is, is sharing with them the gospel of Jesus Christ. You know, that's what I stand with. I stand with the gospel. Yeah, and we're part of a spiritual army. Again, a lot of talk tonight about what the Russian army is doing. A lot of talk tonight, some speculation. Will the United States get involved? Are we seeing the beginnings of World War Three? Could this all be the catalyst of a major showdown between Russia and the United States? We're already fighting them in a proxy war right now. Will it turn physical? Will the military invade another country? Will the United States get involved in this fight? Well, you know what? As Christians, we're already part of a military, if you will. We're already part of an army, if you will. We're soldiers for Jesus Christ. Be a good soldier of Jesus Christ by doing what you've been talking about over the last several minutes. Fight the good fight of faith. Fight the good fight of faith. Let's go soul winning. Let's go soul winning. Hey, Ukraine, Russia, it's getting worse. Let's go soul winning. Oh, man, Putin's about to nuke us. Let's go soul winning. Oh, man, World War Three starting. Let's go soul winning. Let's go soul winning. And then after you're done getting them saved, so you need to tune into the Baptist Bias. You can get it on Apple podcast. You can get on Spotify, Podbean, YouTube, Facebook. You need to share this information. You need to get people plugged into the real fight, the real conflict, which is that spiritual conflict. And check us out Tuesdays 8 p.m. We got a couple more episodes for this season. We're going to keep doing the live call ins. We're excited about the Baptist Bias and sharing this information. And, you know, we try to make some even small clips. So check out the small clips, share them, like them, tweet them if you even have Twitter anymore. I don't know if anybody uses Twitter. They're always emailing me to send out a tweet because I guess nobody uses their platform anymore. But even if you can reach that one last Twitter user that's somewhere out there, you do it. Well, I think that's going to wrap it up for us. Ben, why don't you finish us off? That's it for this episode talking about the Ukraine Russia crisis for Pastor Shelley. It's been the Baptist signing us off. God bless you all. We will talk to you guys again after a while.
