About 2 hours worth, you can skip to 18 minutes, then when the national anthem is done, you can skip to 39 minutes
I would highly recommend taking 2 hours to view the previous link, but for those who would rather read a summary of some points plus a few added thoughts, then continue reading.
Dr Dan Erickson
We can’t legislate risk, have an overall 99.6% survival rate from Covid-19; need to protect the vunerable, be able to have free scientific discussions, let people get back to life as normal, and need to restore the republic to its former form of glory.
Pastor Rob McCoy from California
They have not had one case of Covid in their church and they have been open since May. Romans 13, the government is “WE THE PEOPLE”. You cannot say you are not political (i.e. pastors); you have chosen a political stand by being silent and complicatedly standing with tyranny.
Cissie Graham Lynch
You could replace the word politics with governance, who is going to rule over you. In 2016 over 40 million evangelicals did not vote. People say, “I don’t love either candidate”. When did love become a standard to vote for someone? We need not love the politician but the public policy that they will stand by. The time is past to leave faith inside the home. Abortion up to the time of birth is barbaric. If a Christian refuses to vote then they will stand before God in judgement. We need to fight for religious liberty. Children’s education is key. Do you want your kindergarten kids taught about LGBT for a month? Is it OK for an 8 year old to decide what sex they want to be?

The beauty of freedom was given to us by Christ, but it is a choice to be part of the solution. What are you going to do with it?
David Harris Jr
A movement has crept into the church that is satanic in nature; that movement is the Black Lives Matter movement. They choose to identify with the color of their skin instead of Christ. BLM is a Marxist, anti-God and anti-family movement. David’s wife was almost aborted, but her mom got up off the abortion table and chose life. Where are the pastors who aren’t standing up against abortion? Why are pastors opening their doors to politicians who stand up for abortion? There is blood on their hands. It is essential that believers vote for the party that supports life.
Charlie Kirk – tpusa.com
Activist Christians founded this country. Freedom and equality are key principles of this country’s founding. In the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus said: ‘I will build my ekklesia.’
Ekklesia is tied to freedom and equality.
Steve Simms points out that an ekklesia was the governing body of an ancient Greek city-state and the world’s first expression of democracy… Everyone was considered equal in the ekklesia and any citizen present could participate and share his ideas, opinions, and concerns.
Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza points out in the Gospels a true, ground-up “ekklesia of equals” becomes a possibility in the new society initiated by Jesus.
Locking down America should go down as one of the worst decisions ever. They haven’t figured out how to control “We the People”. Everyone should get 10 others to the poles. Charlie is only going to sleep 3 hrs per night for the next 17 days as he speaks throughout the country.
Kirk Cameron
What do we do? Ask the very people who founded this country (Monumental documentary). The secret recipe, if we have ever lost our way is the National Monument to the Forefathers.
The right arm and hand of faith is pointing upward toward God, and the left hand holds an open Bible; below faith are morality, law, education, and liberty.
– Liberty – a warrior who has overcome the tyrant King of England who persecuted the Pilgrims for their deep religious beliefs.
– Morality – a woman holding a tablet of the 10 Commandments in her left hand and the scroll of Revelation in her right.
– Law – a man holding a Bible with his chair supported by justice and mercy.
– Education – a woman pointing to the Bible in her lap with her chair supported by wisdom and youth.
Dinesh D’Souza
The church is the sleeping giant of American politics. From the beginning of the US until a generation ago it was a Christian nation. But today we are living in a secular society. Our politics have taken a dark turn. Part of the agenda of the secular left is to move to socialism. People say they are going to make socialism work this time. Modern socialism is dividing America in many different ways, not just by economics. The goal of the secular left is to terrorize everyone, making us conform, live by their rules. What do we do about this? We have to create our own educational system, movies, etc. We have one giant unused megaphone, the church. The other side knows we are the nice guys who want to play by the rules; they know we are suckers. We need to realize that they take advantage of the fact that we play by the rules. The lion tamer and the lion story – if the lion is more powerful why is he following the lion tamer? The lion doesn’t realize its power. It’s time for we the church to roar.
The true moral evil of socialism is stealing. For example, go to your neighbor’s house, kick in the door and start eating their food. They say that your neighbor’s stuff is actually yours due to something that happened to your grandfather. They are suppressing our consciences and labeling it social justice.
The church needs to be addressing moral choice issues. We’ve lost the fear of God therefore the church isn’t teaching it. When talking to someone, first find out why they believe anti-moral things.
What needs to be said to the American pulpit? The Judeo Christian worldview is essential – need application of God’s word to all areas of our lives.
You have to do to them what they are doing to us or they will never stop.
The Soviets removed truth. It is evil to tell a young person there is no absolute truth. Christ did not just say truth, He was truth. The biggest sensors in America are You, we aren’t talking. Why are we so silent? Every single person who believes in truth has a moral obligation to never allow a lie to cross their path. We have to introduce truth.
Some of my thoughts beyond the previous summary of non-essentials.
Do we in the USA no longer fear God?
Does it matter if we no longer fear God?
The midwives, however, feared God and did not do as the king of Egypt had told them; they let the boys live. Exodus 1:16-18
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and discipline. Proverbs 1:7
Many of us may have never read the story of Sodom and Gomorrah, or need a refresher, so the following is a brief overview to inform or refresh.
Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom—both young and old—surrounded the house. They called to Lot, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them.” Genesis 19:4-5
We are going to destroy this place. The outcry to the Lord against its people is so great that he has sent us to destroy it.” Genesis 19:13

William Federer (The American Minute)
Socialism promises a common good – they teach that the state is God walking on earth. They identify groups who are disgruntled, then sew dissatisfaction among them – Marxism.
The “1619 project” is brain washing by destroying the history.
Some key things the Democratic platform states:
– Supports “repealing the Hyde Amendment” to allow the government
to fund abortion.
– Supports insurance coverage of “gender transition,” including
“surgery and hormone therapy.”
– “We will ensure that all transgender and non-binary people can procure official government identification documents that accurately reflect their gender identity.”
– Supports banning practices aimed at assisting patients with unwanted same-sex attraction or gender dysphoria.
– “We will fight to enact the Equality Act” – a bill that would allow
biological men to play in women’s sports if they identify as
transgender women.
– “We will restore the United States’ position of leadership on
LGBTQ+ issues” and appoint “senior leaders directly responsible for
driving…LGBTQ+ issues within the federal government.”
– They cater to LGBTQ, whose life style is why God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, is mentioned 32 times in the Democratic platform – none in Republican platform.
– Calls for VA medical benefits to include abortion and gender
“transition” services.
