Current events update. Israel at war. Today's date 3-16-25. Still 59 hostages with some deceased remaining. And Netanyahu has instructed his Israeli hostage team to prepare for more talks in Witkoff proposal. That means that what we've talked about in the last couple of studies, Israel's kind of gotten over their anger with the fact that there were some negotiations going on without their involvement. And I'm sure people have gone to Netanyahu and said, you know, it's just the way Trump operates. You know, sometimes he likes to talk to people alone and then bring you together. But incredibly, Hamas never stopped digging tunnels this whole time. Ex-hostage warns there's a vast network under Gaza still growing. At some point you're wondering when it's just not going to cave in on itself. I mean, how many miles of tunnels there are. But, and some of the hostages said they were given 300 calories a day. And they were demanded that they kneel to their captors, and if they refused, they'd beat them. A US official says strikes on Houthis could last weeks. What's that about? Well, we'll come back to that in a minute. Hamas is attempting to dictate the terms and control things, believe it or not. They said the American-Israeli hostage that we talked about, Eden Alexander, we talked about him Wednesday, will only be freed if a ceasefire is implemented. And so that's not what, it's like somebody working for the Trump administration there would have said, wrong answer. So we'll see about that. But Hamas continues violating the ceasefire terms and that's why you see headlines like this. Palestinians report nine dead as IDF strikes drone operating terror squad in North Gaza. So the Gazans are Hamas. You gotta get that. This is a lie in the news media that it's Hamas controlling the Gazans. It's not true. Whenever 90% of the people are in support of something happening, then they are. It's like when the Nazis in Germany took over Nazi Germany, according to the election, it was like 90%. So there were some good Germans, but there weren't a lot of them. And so the whole country suffered the consequence, and that's what ought to be happening and is happening in the Gaza Strip. The Islamic Houthis. in Yemen have been attacking Israel and U.S. shipping in the Red Sea, and that includes private companies. Just some guy out there, some men out there, men and women just aren't in the living, and then the Houthis attack their ships. It's been going on in the news media. It doesn't say much about it. In the Red Sea is where it's happening. Well, Trump ordered a powerful military action against the Houthi terrorists. And this morning, I didn't have time to include it, but they actually showed pictures of the Trump administration with Donald Trump in his red hat watching a screen. They were watching everything blow up. And so in related news, Trump says ISIS leaders' miserable life was terminated in joint US-Iraq operation. And it was one of the leaders of ISIS that was taken out also this weekend. So there's a whole lot going on. And you have to be very careful where you get your news in order to even hear what's going on. But we continue to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Psalm 122.6 says, They shall prosper that love thee. And I remind you of this map that shows you, and we've shown you this before, but if you look at the bottom there, you'll see Yemen. and the little fires in the bottom of the Red Sea there. That's where this has all been going on and that's where the American military right now is carrying out operations to destroy the Houthi complexes where they have missiles and other military assets. In other news, this is a little bit of a step back and wake up call. Satan has infected the conservative ranks with godless pro-sodomite influencers, like this guy on Fox News all the time, named Guy Benson. Just one of them, I'm going to show you a few. But you better be careful. Conservatives have rightfully said, we welcome anybody who wants to support conservative values. But there's a problem when you call yourself a conservative and you don't live or support actual conservative values. And there are all kinds of conservatives. They call themselves conservatives. They're accepted and received as conservatives who support gay rights, so-called. Well, listen. We want to make it clear, we support human rights. And whether it's somebody claiming to be a homosexual or not, they have constitutional rights. We don't want to see those violated as far as anyone's concerned. We are not among the crew out there, call themselves Bible believers, even some who call themselves King James Bible believers, who call for the execution of homosexuals. That is the wrong dispensation, my friend. That was under Mosaic law with the nation of Israel. That is not in our dispensation. It's not the role of the church. We're not here to see people killed. We are here to call men to repentance. And if you go back to the law, man, I wouldn't be here right now. I was such a rebellious teenager, they would have taken me out and stoned me to death. And then, you know, if you've ever fornicated, Adultery, of course, but premarital sex, which is so accepted in our society today. You get caught doing that, you'd be stoned to death. So if you want to start killing homosexuals, you better throw some of our own people in there, too. And what we're about is calling men to come to Christ. We want to see people saved. We're not about calling on... But that doesn't mean that we accommodate it. It doesn't mean we wrap our arms around it and embrace it, which is what's happening with a lot of what's called conservatism today. I don't know how many of you remember this, but this is a guy named Dave Rubin, and he's a very popular podcaster among so-called conservatives. That guy on his left, your right, is his so-called husband. What they're holding is pictures of, they paid money to have children by surrogacy, and they have a family now where they're raising children. You hear people quoting Dave Rubin and promoting him, that tells you something about that person too. Not just Dave Rubin, but the people promoting him. Tells you something about Fox News, by the way. But here's another little sidebar. Reuben said when they were carrying those children, he'd ask his surrogate to abort any disabled baby. Like Nazis. If the baby had something wrong with it, they'd kill it. And by the way, folks, that's what a lot of the abortion in this country is about. It's euthanasia or eugenics. It's wicked. Everybody wants to have that perfect baby. I got news for you. There's no such thing. And you don't know, a lot of times, after the baby's born, the kind of things that you're going to have to deal with as a parent. And a kid with a clubbed leg, foot, or, you know, missing a part of a limb, or something like that, turns out to be some of the best kids that ever lived. Biggest blessings to their parents that they ever experienced. Downs babies. You talk to especially a good Christian mom and dad who has a Downs baby and see what they have to say about how horrible it is to have a Downs baby. It's not horrible, they talk about how much of a blessing it is. And life is life, amen? But another one on Fox News is Tommy Lauren, is that how you pronounce it? Tommy Lauren. She's not only pro-baby murder, what you call pro-choice or pro-abortion, But she was criticizing the Republicans for not going along with the transgender madness in Congress. Just listen to what they're talking about here. There is a representative who is transgender. Sarah McBride was purposely referred to as Mr. And it's getting a lot of traction. I feel like it's mean spirited to do it just to be mean. Now, that doesn't mean that I want transgender people in women's sports or women's spaces, because that has an actual physical, tangible impact. Like, I'm still learning the characters and politics right now. I'm like, oh, it does look like a girl. So, you know, obviously there's been a transition made. There's it's it's it's a lot different than when someone's at a cafe and it's a guy with a beard and a mustache and clearly a man, but then has a skirt on and lipstick and you're like, want to be called a girl. It's like that is very difficult to understand. And this is reaching. This is attention. This is reaching. This isn't fair. But I think it's inappropriate. I think, look, this is this is clearly looks like a woman. And it was and it was done twice. I understand. I'll get back to what the specifics of what they're talking about in a minute. There's they're promoting transgenderism. They're saying that if a man can do a good enough job of looking like a woman, that he should be accepted as a woman. And, you know, almost all these transgenders are ugly anyway. I mean, they're the ugliest. If they were women, they're the ugliest women on the planet. I mean, I'm just telling you the truth. It's very rare that it's a really good looking guy who makes a good looking woman who claims to be a transgender woman. It's always these really ugly guys that throw a wig and a dress and some makeup on. Hey, put lipstick on a pig. It still looks like a pig with lipstick. And they are promoting, that's what transgenderism is. It's saying, well, if they feel like a woman and they look enough like a woman, then it's just mean to not call him a woman. And those are so-called conservatives. This is what Tommy's referring to, by the way. This, Tim is his name, wants to be called Sarah. And there's a, they say a meltdown. It wasn't a crazy meltdown, but it was a confrontational thing that happened when This is Breitbart even says, refers to transgender rep Sarah McBride as mister. That's not Sarah McBride, that's Tim McBride pretending to be Sarah. So even Breitbart's headlines are not true. His name is Tim and he was made a male, born a male, he'll always be a male. They can cut off his private parts, cut a slit in there, put some fakes on his chest. He will still be a man. And so this is how it went down. I now recognize the representative from Delaware, Mr. McBride. Mr. Thank you, Madam Chair. Ranking member Keating, also wonderful. Mr. Chairman, could you repeat your introduction again, please? Yes, it's a... Did you catch what she did as a smart-axe? She called him Madam. I now recognize the representative from Delaware, Mr. McBride. Thank you, Madam Chair. Ranking member Keating also wonderful. Mr. Chairman, could you repeat your introduction again, please? Yes, it's a it's a. We have set the standard on the floor of the House and I'm simply. What is that standard, Mr. Chairman? Would you repeat what you just said when you introduced a duly elected representative from the United States of America, please? I will. The representative from Delaware, Mr. McBride. Mr. Chairman, you are out of order. No, he's not. Mr. Chairman, have you no decency? I mean, I've come to know you a little bit, but this is not decent. We will continue this hearing. You will not continue it with me unless you introduce a duly elected representative the right way. This hearing is adjourned. He did the right thing. See, if that was me, I would say, have you no decency? Don't tell me to look at that man and pretend he's a woman, you nutbag. But he, still, he did good. Have you no decency? Now, just as a side note, this is the same guy, Tim, pretending to be Sarah, corrupting children. She went with her family to the doctor and the doctor said that she's a girl and everyone should see her and treat her like a girl, right? Which is to say that they should call her Jazz and they should treat her with respect and be nicer. But can I ask you one more question? So that journey that she had from people thinking she was a boy and the fact that Jazz knew she was a girl, to her parents and her friends accepting her as the girl that she is, that journey is called being transgender. And like Jazz said, that makes her a little different from some of the other kids. And Jazz at the end talks about how being different is good, right? There's little kids being indoctrinated by this congressman who's a man pretending to be a woman. Our tax money's paying for that. They demand that you participate in their wicked sin. Note, it is not mental illness, it's sin. Everybody wants to just talk about this, go babble terms. These people have chosen wickedness. Now, are they lunatics? Yes. But that's what sin will do to you. Get into porn, it'll turn you into a lunatic. Go overboard into your sin, no matter what it is, it'll make you crazy. But it's a choice you made. Just like a guy gets behind a car and he's drunk, he drives, he wrecks, he gets killed or kills somebody else, he's still responsible for the fact that he chose to drink and drive. Amen? Well, the same thing's true about these guys. Yes, they go off. They become reprobates according to Romans 1, 18 to 32. God hands them over to a reprobate mind. Before the act of handing them over to a reprobate mind took place, go to a few verses above that, you'll see that they chose to reject God and go into sin, and that's why they ended up where they are. But they are responsible for their choices and their sin. And they're always the love, Love is love. Well, the love crowd is a bunch of violent Marxist killers at heart. They have death in their hearts. That's why I call that the Democrat Party is totally given over to Sodom and the Republican elites are just as far gone. And it is a death cult. They have death in their hearts. And I've documented it over and over and over in these current events. that that's what's going on. We are fighting against a death cult in this country. That man who adjourned the committee, because he was accused of not having any decency and all that blah, blah. He's now getting death threats, and they had to cancel an event that he was going to take part in. He was going to lead, I think, because he called Sarah, quote unquote, McBride, Mr. because he is a mister. That's why. Now, this is a guy. You can see his picture down in the far right corner. Another example. A man pretending to be a woman. just charged with kidnapping and attempted murder after he allegedly entered an 89-year-old woman's home, sprayed her with bear repellent, tied her to a chair. He then shoved her under the back seat of a car and fled, tied her wrists and ankles and put a bag over her head and she nearly died. 89-year-old, she's a tough cookie. She survived that. They finally caught this freak down in North Charleston, South Carolina. It should be. Listen, I'm just telling you the truth. You can ignore it if you want. The violence among the LGBTQ community is three times higher than non-drug using heterosexuals. The only time, and why do I say that? Because among the LGBTQ, you'll find that the drug use is three times higher as well. Americans had better wake up to the reality. The whole gay rights movement, the whole gay rights community is a wicked community that has the exception once in a while. I know two or three myself that are good, decent people otherwise, other than them having homosexual tendencies. They're the exception. When three-fourths of you are wicked and only one-fourth is not, then the good is the exception. And what's it prove? It proves the rule. I'm not telling you never to talk to these people. I'm telling you, you better watch your back. You better watch yourself. I love you enough to tell you the truth. I love you enough that I don't want you to find yourself a victim of this death cult. You preach the gospel to them. You show them as much love as you can. But you don't get yourself into that community, into that dark world that they live in. Don't go there. Even thinking, well, I won't commit the sin, but I'll show love by going to their weddings. Or I'll go to their baby showers. I'll go to their parties. You start doing that, you're taking the first steps to your own demise. You remember this guy? Trans-Tesla vandal, they're calling him. Yes, it's a he. Some of you might not be able to see his face there, but he lives with his mom and calls himself Baby. And he's about my age, I think. Here's another one just happened this week. Street preacher out there preaching and some transgender whipped out a gun and just at the last second decided not to pull the trigger. It's got on video, but I'll just show you the still photo there. Thankfully, this crazed sodomite didn't pull the trigger. So I got to cut this off. I could go on and on and on and just the things that have happened in the last few weeks with the LGBT and trans community. The T stands for trans. And a lot of it, it's so bad among the trans and queer community, the TQ community, that the LGBs are trying to, a lot of them are trying to cut off the T's and the Q's. There's a whole movement to just call it the LGB community again. And I don't blame them, but the reality is that they're just cutting their nose to spite their face, as they say, because they're just in bad shape. All right, I do want to end with levity news. Somebody know what the word levity means? Light, yeah, it's not necessarily laugh out loud, but it's lighten up a little bit. Minnesota State Senate Republicans, this is the state of Minnesota, just introduced a bill to classify Trump derangement syndrome as a mental illness. That's for real. There's the text, mental illness means Trump derangement syndrome or an organic disorder of the brain or a clinically significant disorder of thought, mood, perception, orientation, memory, or behavior that is detailed in a diagnostic codes list published by the commissioner and that seriously limits a person's capacity to function in primary aspects of daily living, such as personal relations, living arrangements, work, and recreation. That's a fact. That's what TDS is doing to people. But I remind you, it's not about Donald Trump. You put anybody else in that suit, taking the stand against abortion, against the trans movement, and against Marxism, and you're still going to get the same thing. So people are saying Vance will win in 2018, then it'll be sound really bad, because then it's going to be VDS, you know. But a serious question here. Is Chuck Schumer the penguin? Some of you do a real good imitation there. Who is that? Here's another one. They're selling Kamala T-shirts that say, miss me yet? They have sold zero. That's at the airport in DC. The guy went up and asked her, and she said they've sold zero shirts. Miss me yet? All right. So no, I'm not asking for one. If you buy me one of those, buy it extra small. because I will not be wearing it. All right, pray, be informed, pray and act accordingly, and let's take it.
