[Music] let's see hold on pull this up guys you guys can decide if he's right or wrong let's see here someone says it look like Tom Cruz I'm Googling Tom Cruz with a beard here hold on let's see here David banana peppers and sandwiches no way no I uh I only breathe through my mouth so I can't really do anything spicy I won't be able to breathe cuz M I have allergies and it deated septum so my nose

hope you guys had an awesome Saturday I had a really cool Saturday very good Saturday sweet all right cool I'm going to pray cuz that's the best way of doing anything and then I'm going to go right into these random questions I'm getting Top Gun VI is looking at you right now oh well thanks yeah good uh you can be my wingman anytime Son Your Son your ego's writing checks that your body can't cash I think I can't quote Top Gun are you kidding me who hasn't seem Grace what do you think someone says it look like Tom Cruz are they accurate are they uh wrong I have no idea maybe they're right who knows oh boy here we go I have no idea what what what do you guys think what do you think Grace yes no Am I Dreaming well it's not my idea though someone else in the live said that so okay guys I'm going to prank quick I'm go into these fun questions I don't see you personally yeah I'm not really I'm not really Tom Chris other people saw it but who knows may be a skinnier tongue or a fatter

have help us to have a really awesome time ask it in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ amen what's up guys how's it going you should get Caleb on the live what's up Steph Lin how's it going Caleb is Caleb on here still if you'd like to that could be cool someone asked is democracy the best type of government why or why not so so I assume that whoever asked this and I know that they're from America cuz I checked um I don't know who they are but I know they're from America now we don't actually live in a democracy Now the Democrats would like to say we live in democracy we don't it's not de democracy is where the majority decides what happens but we don't we live in a constitutional federal republic because if you live a democracy then the majority decides everything then it wouldn't be the United States of America saying who the president is it would be the United States of New York California and Texas basically where the most people are and that's not a way to do it because we just have straight de Democrats all the time it's why we have an electoral college so if the person was referring to America we are not a democracy we are a constitutional federal republic it says Caleb is unable to join well Caleb anybody else can join if they want if you guys would like to Caleb Seth King Caleb Smith Luke Kingston Zoe black Josie he democracies are even more susceptible to propaganda than Americans are yeah yeah they are Seth you can join and talk about it if you have some thoughts on this if you'd like um plus the majority can't decide stuff because I mean being honest a lot of times the majority is pretty dumb they don't always know all of the things but um the best program and someone let's see the rest of the question was why or why not um so the best program is God's program of course because it's God's program another one is uh that the best is a king Aug Archy where you like what King David had um Seth King says I hate politics I'm in too good of a mood right now to talk about that trash oh no not me I'm not brave enough for politics hope you got that Obi-Wan reference Seth all right well if you want to talk about something else Seth uh you can join you could answer questions such as what's the best time for a kid to get a phone or uh are animals really stress relievers online communication can never be as good as real life friendship how to enjoy your weekends more how to have a productive summer what would you do if you were the president how do you avoid getting grounded if you could be a famous person you would choose to be things like that then you can really go from there however you want to do it if you'd like and if you join then a lot other people will probably join as well or Zoe you could join if you would like let's see I'm just going to answer this I get no answers in the comments that's fine what's the best time for a kid to get a phone I I touched on this yesterday and then my dad called me and he's been gone for like a while so I ended it cuz I miss him talk to them see kids shouldn't get phones never give anyone under the age of 37 a phone unless they have to been to 13 or more States really so 13 or more States interesting Seth I think that they should be to at least 27 States or more and then they can get a phone so what about being the different states makes it where they canot or cannot get a phone set what's the differentiating factor there all the drinks on my desk trying to figure out which one let's see how old were you guys when you guys got phones because they are men and they can be used for evil but at the same time I don't believe in keeping your kid in a box because then they get older and then they see something for the first time and then they No Going Back need to learn you need to uh it's like it's it's the it's like the uh the equivalent of saying hey here you go I'll give you an M16 and a uh instead you have to war once you once you're super old rather than um when you could earn it yourself he said I got mine when I could pay for my own interesting yeah that's how my parents did did it too you can get get phone when you pay for it um well 13 plus 27 equals 40 and 0 4 in is 10 mm and 10 is a good number never mind I'm an idiot hey those are good thoughts Seth don't be don't be dumb to yourself I love your math Seth well I mean the real problem is women because if you have women in your life that takes a lot of your time and the love and time equals money and the love of money is the root of all evil so women are evil 13 + 37 15 50 equals Freedom exactly so no matter what you have to be single when you're married single when you're not single when you're married if that's possible single when you're 50 for Freedom exactly what are the points you want an Oreo real bad right now well I can't do anything I'm Seth King let's see from Zoe black I have a feeling you're one of those people who like math you do you like math Seth King I like math I like math sometimes it just depends like I like I hated Advanced algebra that was really dumb and I still have not used it for real life but some parts good best time for a kid to get a phone well not at 3 o'cl in the morning that's not the best time to give a kid a phone see Zoe black or from Seth King Zoe black yes sadly yes but I'm [ __ ] so it's it's kind of like Chinese to me I'm not retied but I la rocks history and science you liked history and science interesting I was like math and social studies interesting word building English with most of their writing science was too complicated and weird for any real life meaning and math and math a little bit of English we see the thing with word building was is I could type a lot I already know how to spell words pretty well so I never really learned anything from word building but I learned lot from a math English social studies just depending what's up Gideon Watkins how's it going you can join live if you like we're just talking about random random things this is all completely improvised I'm I'm working getting the Trevor eadon talk about what is the message and others like that just depending so we shall see no so for a kid to get a phone I'm not sure I assume we just depend on their maturity level and things like that and how much of a how good of a relationship you have with your kids see school should teach kids how to butcher a white tail not how to write an email definitely that's definitely true that makes a ton of sense what what's up J how's it going welcome to the live we're answering random questions going from there so let's see here's another interesting thing someone says that online communication can never be as good as a real life friendship what do you guys think you think online communication could never be as good as real life friendship if you do put it in the comments um I think a lot of people that say that often are pretty older or they are usually from a big youth group because it tends to show that people that see David do you know the three gamer wordss women aren't video games uh no I don't I don't know the three gamer words what are the three gamer words Seth King Boos welcome to the live how's it going hello welcome welcome that's mostly for Theos hello brother Hulk God bless you oh hello oh thank you call me Hulk I love being called Hulk God bless you too brother what's up Lily Harwell welcome to live how's it going we got we've got multiple violin players on the live Lily Harwell and Zoe black haha good good Spanish well when I got to Chile the only things I learned was where's the bathroom where's the food hello goodbye and God bless you and that's about all I learned I didn't really need to learn anything else CU I had Google translate which was interesting I did miss Chile though was a ton of fun you could get like a uh a donut with that like custard filled for like uh see how much was it it was like a dollar for like a big giant donut filled with custard and it was like you could tell that it was really well made too it was it was delicious it was really good so what do you guys think is it true that online communication can never be as good as real life friendship I mean online communication for a lot of message kids is the way you initiate real life friendship because in the world they just tend to meet people around them uh in their own areas and the message uh especially for people like me I have everybody I meet and the message is going to be far away from me so uh yeah online communication isn't as good as inperson friendship but when the question says oh it can never be as good as real life friendship online communication is real life friendship it has to be for a lot of people because I can't be visiting everywhere all the time I I plan to Lord willing but I do a lot of my church and if I am not there the services will not be the same there will be drastic difference no I'm not saying anything about myself it's just the position God's put me in because of electronics and it and I song helped out with his computer and stuff like that as well so who knows it's just a it's just the game I guess um but on communication is real life friendship for a lot of people there's people that play G video games together that meet each other in person after playing video games together for seven years and they already know each other and they cry when they meet and stuff like that so I would I would agree that it could never be be as good as in person but real life friendships it depends on the person it depends because for some people online friendship is the only thing they've got so yeah what do you guys think you guys think online communication can never be as good as rep life friendship do you guys think I hit the na on the head you guys think I'm wrong we have a different way of looking at it whatever else always interesting to me also how each of these lives I'm a different part of myself yesterday I was hyped up on caffeine so I talked pretty fast and I was a well faster than usual and I uh was all hyper today I'm a little more relaxed I guess so that's certainly interesting well you guys aren't going to say what you think of online communication real life friendship but go on to the next one uh how to enjoy your weekends more see how would you enjoy your weekends more sleep in just relax it depends on the person what I like to do is to sleep in and I love the feeling to that I know that I don't have to get up at any certain time the next day and I can just sleep and because I have very elaborate and Fantastical dreams that are very complicated and when I wake up I can't really remember them they're just so complicated the only thing I remember about the dreams I had last night was that I did a dunk contest with a few friends of mine and I one but that's all I remember from my from my dreams from last night so I don't know guess it just depends what do you guys think how do you guys think you can enjoy your weekends more go to church travel too is fun it can be fun anyway let see how to have a productive summer interesting how would you have a productive summer uh don't be a loser I guess work out don't eat dumb foods like today when I got my my Subway sandwich the lady asks like how do you eat all this I'm like well I only eat once a day so interesting what do you think so what are your thoughts what are your questions what would you like to know see if I I already answered that how do you avoid getting grounded um don't be or don't ever get caught I guess what's up Daniel slavu welcome to the live how's it going you can join if you would like we shall see I think everybody's at meetings this weekend just why we're not getting as much engagement as usual but that's all fine that's not why I do it if I want to get a bunch of views I just make everything happy go jly all the time and never talk about anything that matters and never do anything controversial and go all Jo stealing everybody but that's not how long do it it's a lot of fun I'm a little tired though any left what's up S how's it going going Sarah I'm very happy that you're with Samuel Smith but one thing ever since he's been in a relationship with you he no longer responds to the memes that I send him so it's really sad on me oh it's all good I'm glad that he's happy good for him but yeah he hasn't responded to memes in Forever it's all good um oh my goodness yeah it's sad man like I I miss somebody he hasn't hasn't responded to any of it's all good it's all good I'm happy for him let's see how to avoid I'll answer a different question how do you ask your parents things so like my sister Ruth I got to say about her the other day so like a couple weeks ago dad was in a bad mood and what your dad was in a bad everybody gets in bad mood so shut up um dad was in the bad mood and Ruth asked him something and here's the thing about asking your parents things you have to do it you know what matters more than anything else not how you ask not the words that you say not your tonality even when you ask matters you have to ask them when they're in a good mood you have to ask them after they know that you're doing something good so I texted her after she asked him course said no um and he was in a mood where he would go you talk about it for a couple minutes you know about what she was asking how it was wrong whatever and I uh I texted her I said that is maybe the worst timing I've ever seen for anybody to ask Dad or Mom something ever so the next time you want to ask Dad something let me know and you just ask at a different time because when you ask your parents things you want them to say yes of course and the way to get them to say yes is to ask differently ask uh at different times ask when they're ask when they're in good moods and when they want to say yes if you ask them when they're upset they want to say know then they already have all the uh the preindl anger not anger just frustration I guess at the world and you're adding to it by asking hey can I get Minecraft on my phone no so uh timing matters more than anything else what's up Thomas how's it going where are you by the way Thomas I haven't seeing you today you can join if you'd like we were talking about the best time to ask your parents for things and I saying it's the timing of when you ask as well it's also how you ask too but timing matters more than just about anything else really what do you guys think about when you ask your parents things do you guys think differently or think less more or whatever Thomas hello let's see if I could be a famous person I would choose to be let's see I would CH you were sleeping seeping why were you what were you sleeping from time Thomas that's weird are you and Ruth going to South Carolina Camp I assume you mean bethl youth camp we are on the weight list and I still have not heard anything back so I don't know I'm not exactly sure who knows we shall see I guess we shall see if I could be famous person I would choose to be not a famous person because I don't want to be a famous person I think that's dumb it would not be cool say things you can't learn at school or college uh the things you can't learn at school or college what would that be um what are some things you can't learn at school or college the real work class so even if you go to college for sales or business administration whatever else you'll learn about some stuff but nothing really teaches you use well as experience so I graduated when I was 16 from high school and I did tenting for a year from 16 to 17 and then from 17 till from 16 I got a job and I worked uh at like fast food restaurants and I also worked at um I say fast food restaurants and also at um what's it called uh Wendy no um a cleaning company where professionally cleaned places and then I went over to uh and then after with that for a year working three different jobs while graduating from high school I did Ting for Year from 17 to 18 and then after that I went over to um I went to uh what's it called again um I'm little tired guys I'm all good though um from 1718 I did Ting and then from that I did got a sales job and I've been doing sales ever since so then when I appli to these jobs I can say oh not oh I have a four-year degree I have you know four years of sales experience which is better than a degree I don't believe I don't I think unless you're doing engineering or maybe nursing or a doctor or something like that that you have to have a degree don't get a degree it's I think it's 82% of people that get a degree don't get a job in the field that they studied for so they wasted time and money a lot of it let's see someone says real learning does not occur in the classroom I wouldn't quite say that real learning it can occur in the classroom but depends I guess it depends on what kind of learning you're talking about what's up Laura how's it going you know I actually was wondering yesterday about uh oh I only you know yesterday it depends on when I do these but I would only have like two or three people on the live and then I'd be like oh there's only two or three people you know how many views the live from yesterday has after having three two or three people on it consistently for some I'd say an average of five and sometimes like seven the most I have was 10 but usually about 3 to five you know how many views that live has now from yesterday last night it was like a little over an hour long 350 so I'm not worried at all about how many people join life I don't care a lot of this is to uh spend spend my time on something good and to keep myself sharp and to help a let people spend their time on something good as well so yeah it's a lot of fun questions oh boy boy you might like this question Laura I am curious what your thoughts are and you can join if You' like actually that could be interesting uh see pets or and this is from 150 plus interesting impromptu speech topics to choose from pets are for the people who don't have children that's interesting pets are for the people that don't have children I'd say maybe pets are not really for people don't have children people who can't have children a lot of times people that can't have kids by a dog but I think they should get adoption where they should adopt really um but dogs are awesome just start out of course but brother bham did say though that the mental conditions of the Modern Woman not message girls but the Modern Woman you know in the world that would want rather raise dogs than children and why because it's easier and it's less pain but hey dog right uh Laura Jones says pets are for everyone ye everyone should get a dog yes I agree everyone should get a dog actually you know what think I'm going to go get Emma right now I'm going to get Emma [Music] what's up buddy who's a good girl who's a good [Music] girl uh dogs good girl you okay you're really Hy you all right you all right are you okay she's so H happy a yeah she's happyy oh she that mean she's happy okay good her tail oh her tail WS so hard so hard and so fast Laur her entire body was shake a good girl I had this puppy since when I was I don't know like 17 or 18 I even got some puppy pictures who's [Laughter] a hi [Laughter] buddy this is just Emma Emma is the real star of the show tonight guys you're a good girl tonight okay so guys you guys have dogs let's see says his dog is [ __ ] well we used to think Emma's [ __ ] but now I just think she's a love Bubble just a a sack of love that's all Emma is a shack over do what do you think Emma em do you remember when I mocked people asking stupid questions by uh saying do you understand the revelation of Seven Seals that was fun H interesting what's your what's hope you guys can hear the noise she's making let's see live i w when I got my dog they said she had a smart bump on his head but as he got older disappeared a smart bump what does that mean I don't know what that means man your tail so on guys I guess that means you're happy huh you're good you're all right so pets are for the people who don't have children well I'd say pets are for the people who don't want to have children yet because you want don't feel so alone um actually I got Emma when I felt alone when I was about 18 I believe and when I got home every day from work I didn't have any anybody to come home of course I have my family but when I got home everybody was sometimes close to being up sleep and when I well people were at home but when I got in my room no one was there and it was my room you know was my place where I stayed and I wanted to have someone there so got a guinea pig at first guinea pig was just annoying you try to hold it and it literally acts like you're going to kill it like made all those noises it was the weirdest thing and then I decided you know what I want to get a dog so we found a free Amma and the people that gave her to us um pretty sure there were meths because they said that she was a Goldman retriever chihuaha mix I don't know how that's possible but yeah you know no clue nether do I mean I don't how it's possible but wanted to get rid of her when I was younger when I started working like 50 miles from home because I didn't have enough time to spend on her but uh that's just a family dog we thought of giving her like I think a few years ago we thought of giving our way to a a lady that had a dog like that looked just like Emma disappear on her you ran away and she was real sad about it um I think the dog maybe passed away because she couldn't find it for months we giving Emma away but Emma's always friendly to everyone all the time but then with the lady we were we we showed Emma the lady Emma was very aggressive to the lady so we decided to keep Emma and yes technically we kind of say she's everyone's dog people say d she's your dog I'm like no I'm not cleaning up after I'm not going to do that I offered to bring her away because I was so busy all the time and uh and now that I work from home I guess she is my my dog she's everybody's dog but she's still mine who's a good Papa you right what's up Joel welcome to the [Applause] line all right let's see another question in which scenario is lying a good idea so it depends on what you mean by lying because I think it was John Calvin or someone like that who was delivering Bibles to people when they asked him what's in the back of your uh of your carriage and he said apples um and really there wasn't any apples there was actually Bibles was he lying so lying is saying things that are opposite to God's word or rather uh aren't the truth lying is the truth perverted what's the truth something that is true or the word of God but I think if you're saying something and it isn't apart from the truth but it's accomplishing God's word then I wouldn't consider it a lie that it is sin if I'm delivering food to some kids in Africa and some families in Africa but I have to get past a checkpoint Warlords in it and in order to get past it I have to lie to them and tell them no I don't have a bunch of food in the back of my truck I have books instead or nothing in the back of my truck and they're just going to go off my word am I lying to them is it wrong should I tell the truth and not save those people more dilemas so it's certainly interesting so I guess in that scenario technically lying would be a good idea what do you want what is it maybe she's weirded out by my beard let's see someone else says violent games contribute to the violent games contribute to the youth violence no what's wrong Emma what's wrong are you okay why are you groaning you all right okay all see that's why you put both those things in your trunk so you're not technically lying well you still kind of are because you know what they want Emma's saying she's answering the question oh yeah Emma's definitely answering the question she's trying to she you're hearing me talk and you want to participate huh yeah speak speak okay um video games contributed youth valence what is it there she my hand what are you my hand for what do you want me to do oh you want to keep doing this what do you want what is it speak to me speak to me speak to me all right let's get back outside all right I'll be right back guys [Music] good find the thing called those yard you play in your room now right yeah all right guys hello what's up Cher Will I Am how's it going I was just putting the dog back outside hello hello hello welcome to the live though video games contribute to the youth violence no they don't violence is a is the result I do not think that video games contribute to the youth violence I think a lack of a father contributes to youth violence you can put into percentages what how what what contributes to youth violence like I'd say sure violent games can contribute to the youth violence but the thing that contributes more than anything else is the lack of the Lord Jesus Christ in your life and then second to that is the lack of a father they find that in kids that don't have fathers I think they're 80 times more likely to go to prison 80 so the real problem is not having a father what's up sa how's it going the question was violent games do violent games contribute to youth violence no they can sure but the thing that contributes to it the most is not having God in your life not having a father because it also depends what you mean by you violent games do you mean like uh Call of Duty Black Ops or something like that because those are just uh dexterity and handout coordination and you could also have be having a ton of fun with your friends and another point that I see that you can bring out a lot of people don't make is that video games like that you can enjoy them in a fun with them because you know they aren't real you you know it and it's a lot of fun it's like I had a when I was working in Cleveland about an hour from my house and i' when I have to work I'd be go to Sarah and Dominique's house and you know they go to bed at like 8:30 or 9:00 so you know I'd be awake for the next three to three or four or five or 6 hours so I'd have a lot of time by myself and I had a PS5 it was mine at the time and I didn't play it there very much because I didn't enjoy it I enjoy playing some games with my friends really and anytime I've ever play really is to get better so that when I play with my friends it's more fun if anything really so yeah it does depend but no but what contributes to youth violence it's not having a father it's not having a dad it's not having Lord Jesus Christ it's not having a mom it's not being a Christian it's not having some kind of religious or hierarchical structure in your life that equates to being a good human being by societal standards I'd even say even if you have a father and a mother and an atheist father that says no son you will not be violent you will keep your temple you will and kir is teaching us on all these Christian principles of course and he's an atheist right but you know like Jordan Pearson says that an atheist will pick a religious structure or structure of believing in God and live it out as if he is a Christian so an atheist picks a religious structure of moral belief and lives it out what's up Zoe welcome to life how's it going so no I wouldn't say V games contribute to the youth violence because I I've played games my entire life now I've never been the guy that's played them for more than I think the most played a video game I time was maybe an hour or two but that was Clash Royale which is cartoon you know but I've never been the guy play eight hours straight or something dumb like that uh but I knew some people to do and they've never shown violent tendencies which what brings on violent tendencies is lack of found of uh Authority in your life but no doing those things does not contribute to it because the thing that makes us fun is you know they're not real and they also are fun you know because also built into a kid's what you know also contributes to the violence is a lack of control of your spirit because hear me now violence isn't wrong what's wrong is it's violence for the wrong reasons to get the wrong things when David killed GL was that violence wrong when Sam killed you know a thousand men with the jaw bone of an ass was that violence wrong no so there's good balance bad balance oh Thou shalt not kill that word kill actually meant murder not kill otherwise God was wrong to kill people he was wrong to open up the Earth and swallow daythan and Kora he was wrong to do you know to kill all these different people but no it's murder and even the Bible says that if you hate your brother you're guilty of murder oh no wait you hate your brother without a cause you're guilty of murder so no I don't think video games violent video games contribute to the youth violence I mean that's like say if America cuts down its carbon emissions by 15% the world is saved no we contribute I think like two I see let me let me Google this how much really is it not going to work for me come on [Music] really how much of the world's pollution come from your what's up El Jackson and Thomas cross what's up guys so as far as how much of the world's pollution comes from the US 14% of all that comes from the US so if we decrease it by 15% that's almost nothing that's not the real problem so the real problem you know it's not even a problem so that's the small percentage so the real problem with youth violence is a lack of control you don't see a bunch of kids who have their lives together six-pack abs and they work out all the time and they have great jobs and they're getting life together and they have a mom and dad that love them and they do all these different things those aren't the ones doing all this violence it can happens maybe rarely but most of the time is they don't have a father figure they're not Christians their mother sleeps around all the time they have no structure of authority in their life which is why they do these things it's not because of Call of Duty it's the dumbest thing one of the dumbest things I've ever heard in my life really what that is is someone who has a preference steady show nine out of 10 of this is my personal funny statistic that I made up on the spot by the way I made up a long time and going someone just being ridiculous in conversation 99 out of 100 people that don't like sports can't play them because I know people that say you should never play sports ever you should never go to a football game you should be a Christian all the time and just read your Bible instead and here they are spending all the time hunting or fishing or hiking or they spend all the time on Facebook uh saying bad things about other people behind their back or saying how wrong everyone else is have favorite sense some people love hiking and fishing or hunting or playing sports but they hate movies TV shows and video games why because that's not their preference that's not what they like everyone that likes something ignores the worldly aspect of it I like going to the mall I ignore the bad aspect of it I like occasionally very rarely playing a video game or two I ignore the negative aspect I like watching Lord of the Rings I'll ignore the negative aspect which is almost nothing in Lord of the Rings actually know i' say it's nothing load of rings the negative aspect be watching it so much that I miss trip I like what rafting but I'll ignore the bad parts of it I like going to Walmart but I'm going to ignore the nein of the wall because everyone that likes something ignores the worldly aspect of it they do and people like saying oh well if you told me I had a sandwich with the with the bit of garbage in it I wouldn't want to eat it well that's like walking on the street everyone that likes something ignores the worldly aspect of it cuz some people that hate that don't watch movies and TV shows because they're really really busy maybe they like playing sports a lot or they like hiking a lot they're going to ignore the people that are half-dressed on the hiking trails and they're going to ignore the cheerleaders when they're playing sports and all of the uh negative female attention that they get or negative male attention that they get playing sports they're to ignore where they post their pictures and this is fine I'm just saying this they're going to know where they post the pictures of them with their team and their entire team is dressed in super duper short shorts maybe they're wearing a screwed of course but they're going to ignore that those girls are dressed worldly because they like playing that sport everyone ignor Wars the worldly aspect of it and it's time people stop demonizing movies TV shows and video games as if there's some high sin above everything else no they're just like everything else they can be used positively and they can be used negatively just true like oh you said that because you play video games watch movies all no I don't I just am a arbitrator for truth I try to be it's inconsistent like I just had uh my friend Aon on the live last week last last Sunday and he said well people that like hunting and fishing say that I'm not spiritual unless I unless my hobbies are just hunting and fishing basically and what about guys like me cuz I don't like hunting or fishing see see people want to make their favorite sins and say oh no movies are wrong the rest of them because Hollywood is the capital of where Satan is but the brandom said the entire world is Satan's Eden you going tell me that chosen The Chosen series is of the devil so it's uh with that fireproof all these different things you can even say this you know the girls in Lord of the Rings dress more modestly than the ones in fireproof the ones in fireproof is ear in pants and the ones in Lord of the Rings are all dresses you can get pretty ridiculous with this stuff what it is is legalism that equates to religion that says I am better off or I'm more righteous than someone else because I have a different preference of what I like it's meaningless brother brandom said no amount of not quitting or not lying not stealing not going to the picture show saves you just going to a theater condemn you no between you and God so it's uh I'm just understanding this because people like to take video games movies and TV shows and say they're just the worst thing ever no you you know what's worse than those things I'd say or just just as bad bad Pride I don't know who said it but the pride from not doing something is often worse than the actual doing something what would you rather have someone that's that plays video games all the time and says yeah I have a problem I need to fix it or someone that doesn't do anything wrong and they uh they don't do anything wrong but they think they're better than everyone else because they don't do things other people don't Thomas cross 1 John 2:15 love not the world neither the things that are in the world if any man loved the world the love of the father is not in him that's exactly right that is why why would you like Lord of the Rings why because the the subjects and the the nature and the things in it are things that you enjoy peace longsuffering gentleness Faith self-control resisting temptation fighting evil never giving up those are the critical and the the core things loved in Lord of the Rings what you don't what you hate and what you don't love is that they're drinking and smoking fortunately they don't show the negative aspects of those things in Lord of the Rings you like the storyline in Star Wars or you like the the Heroes versus Villains the good versus evil but you don't like that they dress pad me like a prostitute or pad me like a prostitute or they have you know two or three cuss wordss in nine movies you ignore those things why because you love not the world neither the things of the world but you do enjoy the good aspects of it it's not as black and white as people want to say like no love not like I'm not saying this is you Thomas cross but people take that verse and they try to say love not the world no the things of the world and i' say okay you shouldn't uh eat food unless you grew it yourself or you got it from another message believer love not the world nor the things of the world right Walmart's owned by liberal people they hate you so don't go there ever again all that's different than mov and TV shows no it's it's it's against their preference so you love not the world the things of the world and the things of the world is the perversion of the original this is what I preached Wednesday to know good and evil there's good and there's evil there are good aspects of Lord of the Rings and there are evil aspects of Lord of the Rings now as far as I compared to everything else I think it's they're the cleanest most successful movies ever and I really enjoy them but like Star use Star Wars for a really good example to know good and evil we know the good parts and the evil Parts you shouldn't watch it or ever do it because there's evil parts then never go anywhere ever again never use Facebook ever again never use Instagram ever again don't even go to church because you might see someone half dressed walking on the side of the road when you're driving to church oh I'll just ignore it because I'm doing because I'm you know on my way to do something good okay then how is a movie any different than doing something you enjoy people are happy to go on a hiking trail ignore the half-dressed people walking out next to them because that's their pref preference love not the world the things of the world we love the Heroes versus Villains and the good versus evil of Star Wars but we hate that they dressed Padme the way they did and they dressed Leah the way that they did and they said a few words that we don't approve with of we hate those things but we love that it's good versus evil it is literature the entire structure of our entire Society is built on literature stories what are the stories based on they're literally based on what God put in this world what's up Danny how going so it's good versus evil all of it is it's literature stories that's why people that like don't like Lord of the Rings but they love Disney I'm like are you out of your mind you like Disney movies but Lord of the Rings are you kidding me you know the movie Cars has a scene where the girl cars are flashing their headlights to Lightning McQueen yeah it does Lord of the Rings have anything like that no but I'm not comparing it love not the world nor the things of the world you choose the things you like or you don't like based on your preferences we are not any more or any less holy based on the things we do in our spare time or our Hobbies we are the way that we are because of the what we did with God and what we met him at his conditions it's because you like one thing over the other doesn't mean it more holy or less holy well I would say though that you have to be careful with all these things you see do you think Christian rap is fine as long as you're filtering the words in excluding the rap beat well it depends on the uh it depends on the intent of the Christian rap but I don't like Christian rap like Kanye and all that what they're doing I believe that their intent is just to use the word of God to get more views and to get more people to watch them and to uh and to get money so any I can't there's nothing in the Bible or the message that says whether or not any any certain kind of music is right or it's wrong I I don't see people defending listening to Kanye or anything dumb like that but maybe some people are ultimately it's between them and God it is you know I may have a pretty strong case for saying that people you know should be careful about listening to Lauren Deo but I don't have a a scripture or quote for us so I can't definitively say a thing all I can do is go off of personal revelation that's what all this is it's personal revelation if movies and T I know some people that we they can't watch movies or TV shows because it'll drag them down to a level where they aren't Christians and they miss church because of it so they do other things in said I know other people that do maybe uh hiking or fishing or white water rafting or hunting and they get to where they're so obsessed with it to where they'll miss church both things can be used for evil you got to be careful and it's a personal revelation that's what I'm saying it these these people like to demonize the things they don't like to have their favorite sins like no when we're not holy or not holy based on what we do or do not do we're holy because of the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ but Jesus said unless you are perfect you will not enter into the Kingdom of Heaven perfect also there's a there's a a thing that I use called vid Angel and vid angel will let you watch a movie and and select all the filters to filter out everything evil about it so that the movie is entirely clean let see Thomas cross says do you not believe that there's two Spirits influencing everything we listen to watch the games we play don't you think you should judge What Spirit behind it and go from there I think exactly that Thomas cross that's 100% that's exactly what I'm saying you should use the brother B said that the once the true church gets the true revelation of who what she is and what she stands for she will be an invincible Army of the two spirits to discern to discern the two Spirits within the framework of the church let's see a half good movie with evil and it is still evil right well Thomas I'll have you answer this Walmart with dirty magazines in it is still evil right hiking with half-dressed women walking on the uh Trails is still evil right fishing so much where you miss church is still evil right then ball fishing is evil right doing boxing is evil because you have to take your shirt off right books are evil because you have to or Louis LaMore books are evil because you have to ignore the cuss wordss right that's my point there's good and there's evil in everything we do or in everything in the world good and evil the entire structure of Lord of the Rings that uh was created was based on the Bible there's a God that creates everything there's one of his angels that Rebels that angel perverts other angels and then they have the good angels that fight the bad ones and then humans fight evil the entire structure that's why say there's Wizards in it they're not actually Wizards they're actually Angels let's see Thomas cross that's part of living in the world we have no option this is Satan's eeden I agree with you Thomas cross we have no option this is Satan's Eden and all of this this this says uh Thomas says there comes a point where you can avoid the devil's tactics I agree completely it it depends on what you are who you are and really what your weaknesses are and what your strengths are because brother brandham said that Satan has got a Punch Coming he knows where to punch you at for some people let's see cross says watching bad movies that have a little bit of good is not being very careful well I would agree there sure but that's it depends on what you mean by bad movies that have a little bit of good that's not what I was referring to I was referring to good movies that have a little bit of evil and that sounds like something you should completely avoid but everything you enjoy has a little bit of evil in it everything except for the word of God of course but even hunting or fishing has a little bit of evil in their you can do it too much and to keep you from church you can buy the magazines that have the half naked girls in it there still a little bit of even in it let's see someone uh Thomas cross what do you personally think brother Brandon would say about the movies you watch that's an interesting question what what do you personally think brother Brandon would say about the movies you watch it's a good question well I think he'd ask me David is it keeping you from God is it keeping you from having a relationship with God is it a negative aspect of your life or is it just something you use to relax someone asked brother Brandon because they thought that when BR hunting and fishing it was all just to spend time with God and all just a spiritual thing and brother BR never did anything he never did anything uh negative with it ever or that he never did uh or that he never or um sorry I got different comments coming trying to focus on everything someone said that brother bam do you just fish all the time or do you uh do you ever get Visions when you're out hunting he said no I don't I go hunting to get away from all that because we as people we need somebody to relax so that's why Thomas cross saying I completely disagree I fish all the time never miss church ever never seen a morally dressed girls if anything has given me time with God well praise the Lord Thomas that's awesome that's really good that means that in that aspect for you it's not something evil for other people it is you could do it too much and it could keep you from God but you don't Thomas Thomas cross again says I feel he'd say it's not of God it's not edifying at all well do you speak for brother brandham Thomas we can look at what he said he said if there is anything I can do to Merit anything in the presence of God then Christ died in vain no La lawke keeping no legalistic ideas of yours there's nothing you could do to make yourself to Merit anything in the presence of God if you did then Christ died and vain so yeah some people can hun and fish and doesn't hurt them at all good for them I think that's awesome and someone's say oh I let's see Tom cross did you not just give your opinion on what he think he'd ask you I did give my opinion and you gave yours we can repeat we can look up what he what he said my point though is that people say people think that hunting fishing is is is much more righteous than watching a movie that's my point it's not they both can be used for evil let's see here I got a quote I saw a while back let me see here trying to find it here let see are you speaking for the no I'm not I don't know I have no idea Thomas your point is based solely of argument tactics no scripture what exactly do you mean by that Thomas which point are you referring to because I I've quoted a quot of brother brandom several times in what I'm saying let me see here hold on let me find this with this quote from Brother Brown well I really appreciate your opinion I really do and I know that you're truly trying to do exactly what God wants you to my point is is that whether you are and I'll end with this whether someone is argument I don't argue with people we're just discussing things we're Christians talking about things Thomas whether you are Hunting Fishing watching a movie or whatever else I've heard no scripture will you want a scripture for the thing that brother bham said and I will send Elijah the prophet before behold I will send Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and Dreadful day of the Lord and he shall turn the hearts of the fathers back to the children heart of the children back to the fathers lest I come and smite the Earth with a curse Revelation s and seven but the days of the voice of the seventh angel when he shall begin to sound the mystery of God should be finished as Heath declared to his servants the prophets and the quote the exact quote brother Bram someone said brother Bram do you have visions when you go hunting said no I go hunting to get away from all that stuff because we have things as human beings that we do and do to escape to relax and it can be used for evil of course it it was almost used for evil brother the braham's life cuz he got to a point several times where he said that he would rather just go out hunting and stop preaching to people and just hunt instead because people were worshiping him as God or taking what he was saying and doing it wrongly I see Thomas cross where did the prophet back your point then where did your the Prophet believe doing worldly things in a christianly way is fine well my dear precious brother Thomas I think you're just misinterpreting me that's not what I meant I'm not saying doing worldly things in a christianly way is fine at all I'm saying doing things that make you relaxed in doing things that uh that you have a personal revelation on because David kain's personal revelation what he and what he does or does not like to do is not the same for everyone else Thomas cross's person Revelation what Everyone likes to do is not the same for everybody else but I would say that let's see let me just find this quote [Music] here it's always cool going through these old notes from Camp because there's a ton of uh really really good encouraging things that were WR that I write down from my but I'm thinking of what they're preaching it's pretty pretty neat see if I can find this here hold on I can find this see what's up Mr Sanger welcome to the live how's it going here we go B said hear ye him he said her hear you him now who could be saved by the law no one could be saved by the law the law didn't come to save us the law was to magnify our sins to point them out to us and listen to you legalist believer I want to ask you something there's not one thing you can do to be saved in yourself no sir you are saved by grace and that alone you have nothing to do with it God chose you in Christ before the foundation of the world that's right hold [Music] hope the person gets the message I just sent them it's all good this is all good stuff guys really what I'm talking about is people that do things wrongly heard people that that hike people that you know Satan can use anything against us now I would say that I will say this make sure this person's on I will say that uh the bulk of the modern movies I'd say 999,999 out of a million of them you should never watch I will say that and the bulk of hunting and fishing isn't bad I will say that in that aspect I would uh I would definitely agree but in the as aspect of uh but in the aspect of um in the aspect of uh preference it's just a preference you know but I would say yeah the vast majority of modern movies are trash and you can still go hunting and fishing and nothing wrong with it as far as you could say percentage of evil in it there's a higher percentage of evil in movies than there is in hunting and fishing I would agree but s can use any of those things against you could be more easily used movies it depends on how what your weakness is inside of you sure you know what do I spent like me what do I spend my time on these lives studying for the lives spending time with family uh working a lot driving around spending time with my family I spend a very small amount of my time on a movie your TV show or a video game almost none and you know I believe that everyone should be careful I I definitely believe that 100% so there's a higher percentage of course of evil in a movie or TV show but is there anything wrong with uh The Riflemen or Little House in the prairie no I've gotten serent thoughts from Little House PR I got my first sermon I ever preach from Little House in the prairie you know so it's all good stuff and I think that you know if you embraced all of movies as a whole versus uh all of hunting as a whole it' be less bad to do hunting but let see Thomas gr says yes you refresh your mind with the sermon in the church and its condition may change your opinion God bless and good night God bless you brother good night good stuff Church in is conditional I'll write that down I think I need to charge my keyboard it's good stuff it's all good stuff and a lot of times for some people hunt movies or TV shows are their weakness and they'd rather do something else like hunting or fishing no I'm not saying this you Thomas I'm saying that's other people it depends um my only point is to say that what makes something wrong isn't or my point was to say that something isn't entirely Evil movies and TV shows AR entirely evil there are parts of it where you can watch it and you're going to be it's not going to kill you sometimes it might be a little something to ignore but it's fine and the Temptation you know has can come to everybody to use what you like against you there has of course come to people who like fishing to stay out and go fishing on Wednesday night someone could not say that no I have never had the temptation to go hunting or fishing instead of going to church of course the temptation's been but uh you don't heed the compation so it's all good stuff I I really enjoyed it all it's all good May listen to that so A few things people asked me and uh not going to lie link so someone from Trinidad near report Fon Trinidad in Tobago ask me if I'm looking to date someone right now no I I don't really like when people say that because dating isn't something you should take lightly it's something you do after you actually know someone it's not something you do immediately depends what you mean by dating too someone says do you love your life now the Bible says love with his life Lo or something like that but I love what God has put inside my life I'll say that and I love the battles that I fight and I love the victories that I won then I can fail and get back up again and I love where God's plac me and soone says why do you always do lives because it's a good use of my time and it's a good discussion point for people it's a good thing to get people to come together it's all good all right this has been cool this has been fun what's up keep you always leave you always turn about to end the live but it's been fun it's been super cool I'm going to bring some on talk about what the messages and St like that but anyway God bless you guys I'm going to pray in mind it Lord Jesus thank you for everything we love you uh please be with us as we go to bed with our services tomorrow help us to take everything that we heard and use it whatever we need Lord ask in all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ amen all right good night guys
