00:10:53.835 --> 00:10:56.938
About three, four, minutes or so later on in his remarks he
00:10:57.072 --> 00:10:57.706
So later on in his remarks he talks about that no matter what
00:10:57.839 --> 00:11:00.776
Talks about that no matter what we were going to attack iran,
00:11:00.909 --> 00:11:01.510
We were going to attack iran, it was just a matter of time.
00:11:01.643 --> 00:11:02.244
It was just a matter of time. just happened to do it right
00:11:04.179 --> 00:11:05.080
Just happened to do it right then rather than let's say
00:11:05.213 --> 00:11:06.715
Then rather than let's say hours later, 40 8 hours later.
00:11:06.848 --> 00:11:07.482
Hours later, 40 8 hours later. >> i mean you don't move the
00:11:07.616 --> 00:11:08.517
>> i mean you don't move the entire if you will, into
00:11:08.650 --> 00:11:11.286
Entire if you will, into position and then say all
00:11:11.419 --> 00:11:11.920
Position and then say all right, everybody.
00:11:12.053 --> 00:11:15.090
Right, everybody. >> this was going to happen.
00:11:15.223 --> 00:11:15.824
>> this was going to happen. you just kick somebody out of
00:11:15.957 --> 00:11:16.625
You just kick somebody out of the party.
00:11:16.758 --> 00:11:19.661
The party. that's an incredible what is
00:11:19.795 --> 00:11:20.428
That's an incredible what is right here television.
00:11:20.562 --> 00:11:23.465
Right here television. let's just take a moment and
00:11:23.598 --> 00:11:27.169
Let's just take a moment and you and i tend to geek out so
00:11:27.302 --> 00:11:28.036
You and i tend to geek out so let's geek out.
00:11:28.170 --> 00:11:28.537
Let's geek out. the war powers act has been
00:11:28.670 --> 00:11:31.640
The war powers act has been triggered now.
00:11:31.773 --> 00:11:32.107
Triggered now. the president within the 48
00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:34.709
The president within the 48 hour time period required has
00:11:34.843 --> 00:11:35.443
Hour time period required has notified congress.
00:11:35.577 --> 00:11:38.413
Notified congress. >> that in turn triggers a 60
00:11:38.547 --> 00:11:41.483
>> that in turn triggers a 60 day period where forces are
00:11:41.616 --> 00:11:42.217
Day period where forces are still under that justification
00:11:42.350 --> 00:11:45.687
Still under that justification to operate.
00:11:45.821 --> 00:11:49.324
To operate. is are you saying a coalition
00:11:49.457 --> 00:11:52.828
Is are you saying a coalition form in congress to somehow
00:11:52.961 --> 00:11:55.864
Form in congress to somehow limit that 60 day period?
00:11:55.997 --> 00:11:56.531
Limit that 60 day period? >> they're trying but the
00:11:56.665 --> 00:12:00.168
>> they're trying but the answer is no.
00:12:00.302 --> 00:12:00.602
Answer is no. as a matter of fact, there'll
00:12:00.735 --> 00:12:01.336
As a matter of fact, there'll be votes wednesday this week in
00:12:01.469 --> 00:12:04.206
Be votes wednesday this week in the senate thursday most likely
00:12:04.339 --> 00:12:05.006
The senate thursday most likely in the house to try and limit
00:12:05.140 --> 00:12:07.742
In the house to try and limit the president's war powers with
00:12:07.876 --> 00:12:08.510
The president's war powers with this resolution.
00:12:08.643 --> 00:12:10.912
This resolution. both attempts are expected to
00:12:11.046 --> 00:12:14.783
Both attempts are expected to to fail.
00:12:14.916 --> 00:12:15.116
To fail. it'll be close.
00:12:15.250 --> 00:12:15.617
It'll be close. but the bottom line is the
00:12:15.750 --> 00:12:16.384
But the bottom line is the president should continue to
00:12:16.518 --> 00:12:19.020
President should continue to have that authority.
00:12:19.154 --> 00:12:19.588
Have that authority. now having said that, gordon,
00:12:19.721 --> 00:12:22.424
Now having said that, gordon, let's fast forward into that 60
00:12:22.557 --> 00:12:23.225
Let's fast forward into that 60 day time frame and technically
00:12:23.358 --> 00:12:25.861
Day time frame and technically would be 90 days, right?
00:12:25.994 --> 00:12:26.561
Would be 90 days, right? 60 days to allow for military
00:12:28.530 --> 00:12:29.531
60 days to allow for military action and then night and 30
00:12:29.664 --> 00:12:33.635
Action and then night and 30 more days.
00:12:33.768 --> 00:12:34.002
More days. the war powers act says war war
00:12:34.135 --> 00:12:37.038
The war powers act says war war powers resolution says to get
00:12:37.172 --> 00:12:37.772
Powers resolution says to get out that withdrawal time.
00:12:37.906 --> 00:12:38.440
Out that withdrawal time. 90 days after that especially
00:12:39.674 --> 00:12:40.575
90 days after that especially if there's boots boots on the
00:12:40.709 --> 00:12:44.045
If there's boots boots on the ground.
00:12:44.179 --> 00:12:44.379
Ground. >> well, that's a whole other
00:12:44.512 --> 00:12:45.080
>> well, that's a whole other conversation and my guess at
00:12:45.213 --> 00:12:45.780
Conversation and my guess at that point there would be a
00:12:45.914 --> 00:12:47.716
That point there would be a much stronger coalition to say
00:12:47.849 --> 00:12:48.450
Much stronger coalition to say wait a minute, mr. president,
00:12:48.583 --> 00:12:51.019
Wait a minute, mr. president, it's time for congress to get
00:12:51.152 --> 00:12:51.753
It's time for congress to get involved here because as you
00:12:51.887 --> 00:12:52.454
Involved here because as you know, gordon article article
00:12:52.587 --> 00:12:54.990
Know, gordon article article one gives congress the power to
00:12:55.123 --> 00:12:55.757
One gives congress the power to declare war.
00:12:55.891 --> 00:12:56.191
Declare war. article two, of course shows
00:12:56.324 --> 00:12:58.426
Article two, of course shows that the president is the
00:12:58.560 --> 00:12:59.060
That the president is the commander in chief of the armed
00:12:59.194 --> 00:12:59.828
Commander in chief of the armed forces quite frankly, gordon
00:12:59.961 --> 00:13:02.330
Forces quite frankly, gordon the us supreme court really
00:13:02.464 --> 00:13:05.734
The us supreme court really ruled on this specifically.
00:13:05.867 --> 00:13:06.434
Ruled on this specifically. >> so you you know, it's just
00:13:06.568 --> 00:13:10.338
>> so you you know, it's just always been there ever since
00:13:10.472 --> 00:13:11.039
Always been there ever since nixon presidents have used it
00:13:11.172 --> 00:13:13.341
Nixon presidents have used it it as you know.
00:13:13.475 --> 00:13:13.875
It as you know. >> well it goes back to 1973.
00:13:14.009 --> 00:13:14.743
>> well it goes back to 1973. the justification is in modern
00:13:14.876 --> 00:13:17.746
The justification is in modern warfare you don't have time to
00:13:17.879 --> 00:13:18.546
Warfare you don't have time to get an act of congress.
00:13:18.680 --> 00:13:21.983
Get an act of congress. you have to act when the
00:13:22.117 --> 00:13:22.784
You have to act when the opportunity presents.
00:13:22.918 --> 00:13:25.020
Opportunity presents. so you know, the the issue is
00:13:25.153 --> 00:13:25.887
So you know, the the issue is is there a threat states and
00:13:26.021 --> 00:13:29.491
Is there a threat states and you know from my point of view
00:13:29.624 --> 00:13:32.761
You know from my point of view what iran has been doing for 47
00:13:32.894 --> 00:13:36.231
What iran has been doing for 47 years has been a pretty clear
00:13:36.364 --> 00:13:36.965
Years has been a pretty clear threat to the united states
00:13:37.098 --> 00:13:39.768
Threat to the united states they keep saying death to
00:13:39.901 --> 00:13:40.435
They keep saying death to america.
00:13:40.568 --> 00:13:40.769
America. they sponsored the houthis they
00:13:40.902 --> 00:13:43.972
They sponsored the houthis they have death to america on their
00:13:44.105 --> 00:13:44.706
Have death to america on their flag and they fired in the
00:13:44.839 --> 00:13:48.076
Flag and they fired in the biden years.
00:13:48.209 --> 00:13:48.510
Biden years. it was they fired missiles our
00:13:48.643 --> 00:13:51.680
It was they fired missiles our navy ships.
00:13:51.813 --> 00:13:52.080
Navy ships. it's if that's not an act an
00:13:52.213 --> 00:13:55.083
It's if that's not an act an act of war, i don't know what
00:13:55.216 --> 00:13:55.850
Act of war, i don't know what is.
00:13:55.984 --> 00:13:56.117
Is. >> so let's let's geek out a
00:13:56.251 --> 00:13:58.753
>> so let's let's geek out a little bit more.
00:13:58.887 --> 00:13:59.220
Little bit more. within the 60 day period.
00:13:59.354 --> 00:13:59.854
Within the 60 day period. congress to authorize the
00:13:59.988 --> 00:14:02.590
Congress to authorize the action.
00:14:02.724 --> 00:14:02.924
Action. do you do you think that that's
00:14:03.058 --> 00:14:06.594
Do you do you think that that's if they don't that's what
00:14:06.728 --> 00:14:08.930
If they don't that's what triggers the 30 day withdrawal
00:14:09.064 --> 00:14:09.664
Triggers the 30 day withdrawal period.
00:14:09.798 --> 00:14:09.998
Period. >> right.
00:14:10.131 --> 00:14:10.365
>> right. do you think congress is going
00:14:10.498 --> 00:14:12.934
Do you think congress is going to approve the action?
00:14:13.068 --> 00:14:13.501
To approve the action? >> i think that if there is
00:14:13.635 --> 00:14:17.272
>> i think that if there is talk and serious talk of boots
00:14:17.405 --> 00:14:18.006
Talk and serious talk of boots on the ground we've already
00:14:18.139 --> 00:14:20.675
On the ground we've already heard that president trump has
00:14:20.809 --> 00:14:21.409
Heard that president trump has actually said that he's ruling
00:14:21.543 --> 00:14:24.579
Actually said that he's ruling it out.
00:14:24.713 --> 00:14:24.913
It out. if that talk and that drumbeat
00:14:25.046 --> 00:14:25.680
If that talk and that drumbeat continues, the answer.
00:14:25.814 --> 00:14:28.516
Continues, the answer. i think they could very well do
00:14:28.650 --> 00:14:29.384
I think they could very well do that.
00:14:29.517 --> 00:14:29.684
That. i think we and see.
00:14:29.818 --> 00:14:32.754
I think we and see. as you know, gordon, this can
00:14:32.887 --> 00:14:33.521
As you know, gordon, this can get squirrely real fast all
00:14:33.655 --> 00:14:36.891
Get squirrely real fast all five 770 or excuse me all caps
00:14:37.025 --> 00:14:37.659
Five 770 or excuse me all caps 72 five.
00:14:37.792 --> 00:14:37.993
72 five. >> that's a different situation
00:14:38.126 --> 00:14:40.628
>> that's a different situation within 60 days of what we've
00:14:40.762 --> 00:14:43.498
Within 60 days of what we've seen transpire since february
00:14:43.631 --> 00:14:44.199
Seen transpire since february 28.
00:14:44.332 --> 00:14:44.466
28. so eight.
00:14:44.599 --> 00:14:47.102
So eight. so short answer.
00:14:47.235 --> 00:14:47.569
So short answer. yeah i think it could actually
00:14:47.702 --> 00:14:48.336
Yeah i think it could actually they could curtail some of that
00:14:48.470 --> 00:14:50.739
They could curtail some of that power especially if things go
00:14:50.872 --> 00:14:51.506
Power especially if things go sideways quickly.
00:14:51.639 --> 00:14:53.842
Sideways quickly. >> i'm concerned about domestic
00:14:53.975 --> 00:14:54.676
>> i'm concerned about domestic terrorism.
00:14:54.809 --> 00:14:55.043
Terrorism. i think most americans are.
00:14:55.176 --> 00:14:57.946
I think most americans are. >> we keep hearing about
00:14:58.079 --> 00:14:58.780
>> we keep hearing about sleeper cells.
00:14:58.913 --> 00:15:01.416
Sleeper cells. has the revolutionary guard
00:15:01.549 --> 00:15:02.083
Has the revolutionary guard placed agents on shores?
00:15:02.217 --> 00:15:05.453
Placed agents on shores? >> are they going to be
00:15:05.587 --> 00:15:06.287
>> are they going to be activated?
00:15:06.421 --> 00:15:06.654
Activated? and still hasn't funded the
00:15:06.788 --> 00:15:09.257
And still hasn't funded the department of homeland security
00:15:09.391 --> 00:15:12.227
Department of homeland security .
00:15:12.360 --> 00:15:12.460
. are they playing a pretty risky
00:15:12.594 --> 00:15:13.361
Are they playing a pretty risky game with the security of every
00:15:13.495 --> 00:15:16.865
Game with the security of every american?
00:15:16.998 --> 00:15:17.232
American? >> well, what the white house
00:15:17.365 --> 00:15:20.568
>> well, what the white house is going to say on this and
00:15:20.702 --> 00:15:21.269
Is going to say on this and it's an interesting way they
00:15:21.403 --> 00:15:21.970
It's an interesting way they kind of spin it say spin it.
00:15:22.103 --> 00:15:24.372
Kind of spin it say spin it. here are the facts.
00:15:24.506 --> 00:15:24.939
Here are the facts. let's just get to the facts.
00:15:25.073 --> 00:15:25.774
Let's just get to the facts. the department of homeland
00:15:27.742 --> 00:15:28.443
The department of homeland security is operating on an
00:15:28.576 --> 00:15:29.144
Security is operating on an essential level.
00:15:29.277 --> 00:15:29.644
Essential level. >> right.
00:15:29.778 --> 00:15:31.946
>> right. right.
00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:32.247
Right. i mean it's nonessential
00:15:32.380 --> 00:15:32.914
I mean it's nonessential employees that are not getting
00:15:33.048 --> 00:15:33.648
Employees that are not getting paid.
00:15:33.782 --> 00:15:33.948
Paid. there there.
00:15:34.082 --> 00:15:35.617
There there. paperwork's not getting done.
00:15:35.750 --> 00:15:36.317
Paperwork's not getting done. long term threat assessments
00:15:36.451 --> 00:15:39.421
Long term threat assessments aren't being looked at.
00:15:39.554 --> 00:15:40.021
Aren't being looked at. but short term threat
00:15:40.155 --> 00:15:40.622
But short term threat assessments are you have
00:15:40.755 --> 00:15:43.625
Assessments are you have everybody as it relates to
00:15:43.758 --> 00:15:44.325
Everybody as it relates to cybersecurity and security, all
00:15:44.459 --> 00:15:47.629
Cybersecurity and security, all of that that's still going on.
00:15:47.762 --> 00:15:48.363
Of that that's still going on. >> so top are being addressed
00:15:48.496 --> 00:15:51.332
>> so top are being addressed even now despite the fact that
00:15:51.466 --> 00:15:55.236
Even now despite the fact that department of homeland security
00:15:55.370 --> 00:15:56.004
Department of homeland security is not being funded.
00:15:56.137 --> 00:15:56.538
Is not being funded. >> so we're talking about at a
00:15:56.671 --> 00:15:57.272
>> so we're talking about at a lower staff, if you will and
00:15:57.405 --> 00:15:59.174
Lower staff, if you will and there's a lot of stuff within
00:15:59.307 --> 00:15:59.908
There's a lot of stuff within the government but but it's a
00:16:00.041 --> 00:16:02.177
The government but but it's a little bit more of the the
00:16:02.310 --> 00:16:02.844
Little bit more of the the bureaucratic items that are
00:16:02.977 --> 00:16:05.180
Bureaucratic items that are getting done.
00:16:05.313 --> 00:16:05.613
Getting done. so the white house will argue
00:16:05.747 --> 00:16:06.314
So the white house will argue look, we're taking of what we
00:16:06.448 --> 00:16:09.851
Look, we're taking of what we need to take care of but of
00:16:09.984 --> 00:16:10.585
Need to take care of but of course with homegrown attacks
00:16:10.718 --> 00:16:11.286
Course with homegrown attacks as we saw we saw down there and
00:16:11.419 --> 00:16:13.455
As we saw we saw down there and the alleged homegrown attack
00:16:13.588 --> 00:16:14.155
The alleged homegrown attack down there in texas, you know,
00:16:14.289 --> 00:16:16.658
Down there in texas, you know, this type of stuff has its ugly
00:16:16.791 --> 00:16:20.328
This type of stuff has its ugly head too many times and you
00:16:20.462 --> 00:16:20.995
Head too many times and you know, cbn was pointed out out i
00:16:21.129 --> 00:16:24.165
Know, cbn was pointed out out i mean cbn was on the front lines
00:16:24.299 --> 00:16:25.033
Mean cbn was on the front lines of this a decade or two ago for
00:16:25.166 --> 00:16:27.602
Of this a decade or two ago for sure.
00:16:27.735 --> 00:16:27.902
Sure. talking about these homegrown
00:16:28.036 --> 00:16:28.603
Talking about these homegrown terrorism attacks that would
00:16:28.736 --> 00:16:30.705
Terrorism attacks that would rear their ugly head if and
00:16:30.839 --> 00:16:31.406
Rear their ugly head if and when the time is right now it
00:16:31.539 --> 00:16:34.342
When the time is right now it sounds like the time is more
00:16:34.476 --> 00:16:35.076
Sounds like the time is more than right.
00:16:35.210 --> 00:16:35.477
Than right. >> well, the the strait of
00:16:35.610 --> 00:16:38.279
>> well, the the strait of hormuz that was their sort of
00:16:38.413 --> 00:16:39.013
Hormuz that was their sort of ultimate threat that iran has
00:16:39.147 --> 00:16:41.683
Ultimate threat that iran has now declared they've closed it.
00:16:41.816 --> 00:16:42.450
Now declared they've closed it. that's 20% of the oil supply.
00:16:42.584 --> 00:16:44.919
That's 20% of the oil supply. are we going to see that start
00:16:45.053 --> 00:16:48.490
Are we going to see that start prices?
00:16:48.623 --> 00:16:48.823
Prices? i filled up a tank last night
00:16:48.957 --> 00:16:49.757
I filled up a tank last night and.
00:16:49.891 --> 00:16:51.993
And. i don't know if somebody's
00:16:52.127 --> 00:16:52.727
I don't know if somebody's taking advantage of it but the
00:16:52.861 --> 00:16:53.461
Taking advantage of it but the price was higher.
00:16:53.595 --> 00:16:55.530
Price was higher. so are we going to see that?
00:16:55.663 --> 00:16:56.331
So are we going to see that? is there going to be new
00:16:56.464 --> 00:16:57.265
Is there going to be new inflation and is that going to
00:16:57.398 --> 00:17:00.135
Inflation and is that going to affect the midterm elections?
00:17:00.268 --> 00:17:03.004
Affect the midterm elections? >> it's all on the table.
00:17:03.138 --> 00:17:03.805
>> it's all on the table. i don't think there's any
00:17:03.938 --> 00:17:04.439
I don't think there's any question about it.
00:17:04.572 --> 00:17:04.939
Question about it. i mean.
00:17:05.073 --> 00:17:07.041
I mean. i mean just in my area up here
00:17:07.175 --> 00:17:08.243
I mean just in my area up here about cents more for gas and
00:17:08.376 --> 00:17:09.978
About cents more for gas and hour per gallon excuse me and i
00:17:10.111 --> 00:17:10.845
Hour per gallon excuse me and i think ultimately that that will
00:17:10.979 --> 00:17:13.381
Think ultimately that that will be the case as it will kind of
00:17:13.515 --> 00:17:14.249
Be the case as it will kind of incrementally go up up.
00:17:14.382 --> 00:17:17.118
Incrementally go up up. >> but then again it's going to
00:17:17.252 --> 00:17:18.019
>> but then again it's going to ebb and flow depending.
00:17:18.153 --> 00:17:18.653
Ebb and flow depending. but look, the strait of hormuz
00:17:18.786 --> 00:17:20.321
But look, the strait of hormuz of course 80% or so are the
00:17:20.455 --> 00:17:21.189
Of course 80% or so are the ships not going through.
00:17:21.322 --> 00:17:21.823
Ships not going through. iran says they've it.
00:17:21.956 --> 00:17:24.592
Iran says they've it. >> america says not so fast.
00:17:24.726 --> 00:17:25.360
>> america says not so fast. it's not officially closed.
00:17:25.493 --> 00:17:26.027
It's not officially closed. see?

Teams. we expect an influx coming in
00:17:55.557 --> 00:17:58.159
We expect an influx coming in to armenia.
00:17:58.293 --> 00:17:58.560
To armenia. it's a christian nation in the
00:17:58.693 --> 00:17:59.294
It's a christian nation in the midst of many nations and so
00:17:59.427 --> 00:18:02.297
Midst of many nations and so it's a safe haven for many
00:18:02.430 --> 00:18:02.964
It's a safe haven for many looking to exit.
00:18:03.097 --> 00:18:03.464
Looking to exit. the about what we're doing at
00:18:03.598 --> 00:18:06.568
The about what we're doing at operation blessing is we've
00:18:06.701 --> 00:18:07.268
Operation blessing is we've actually been on the ground in
00:18:07.402 --> 00:18:08.036
Actually been on the ground in armenia since 2009 with orphans
00:18:08.169 --> 00:18:10.438
Armenia since 2009 with orphans promise.
00:18:10.572 --> 00:18:10.772
Promise. and so we've got an extensive
00:18:10.905 --> 00:18:11.506
And so we've got an extensive presence.
00:18:11.639 --> 00:18:11.873
Presence. we've got a network of churches
00:18:12.006 --> 00:18:14.442
We've got a network of churches now we have ongoing projects
00:18:14.576 --> 00:18:15.176
Now we have ongoing projects that we work through and so
00:18:15.310 --> 00:18:15.877
That we work through and so those folks are ready to jump
00:18:16.010 --> 00:18:18.446
Those folks are ready to jump into action and as these
00:18:18.580 --> 00:18:19.080
Into action and as these refugees enter the country,
00:18:19.214 --> 00:18:19.747
Refugees enter the country, provide spiritual support.
00:18:19.881 --> 00:18:21.716
Provide spiritual support. as you know well, real benefits
00:18:21.849 --> 00:18:24.185
As you know well, real benefits of being part of cbn is that
00:18:24.319 --> 00:18:24.919
Of being part of cbn is that we're already there.
00:18:25.053 --> 00:18:25.486
We're already there. we have superbook in their

Farsi, we have superbook in armenian.
00:18:30.058 --> 00:18:30.291
Armenian. and so these kids that are
00:18:30.425 --> 00:18:32.160
And so these kids that are coming are hearing the gospel.
00:18:32.293 --> 00:18:32.860
Coming are hearing the gospel. their parents are receiving
00:18:32.994 --> 00:18:33.528
Their parents are receiving spiritual aid, they're getting
00:18:33.661 --> 00:18:36.297
Spiritual aid, they're getting food hygiene kits, that kind of
00:18:36.431 --> 00:18:37.065
Food hygiene kits, that kind of thing.
00:18:37.198 --> 00:18:37.365
Thing. so we're preparing and whenever
00:18:37.498 --> 00:18:39.500
So we're preparing and whenever the influx begins.
00:18:39.634 --> 00:18:40.034
The influx begins. >> is there a supply chain
00:18:40.168 --> 00:18:40.802
>> is there a supply chain issue with the airspace being
00:18:40.935 --> 00:18:43.838
Issue with the airspace being shut down?
00:18:43.972 --> 00:18:46.908
Shut down? how can we resupply what we
00:18:47.041 --> 00:18:47.675
How can we resupply what we currently have in armenia?
00:18:47.809 --> 00:18:51.045
Currently have in armenia? sure.
00:18:51.179 --> 00:18:51.346
Sure. again, the good thing is the
00:18:51.479 --> 00:18:52.046
Again, the good thing is the network we have so in-country
00:18:52.180 --> 00:18:52.814
Network we have so in-country we can purchase we already
00:18:52.947 --> 00:18:54.849
We can purchase we already already purchased some ahead of
00:18:54.983 --> 00:18:55.617
Already purchased some ahead of this when we saw it coming.
00:18:55.750 --> 00:18:56.317
This when we saw it coming. this isn't the first time we've
00:18:56.451 --> 00:18:58.119
This isn't the first time we've responded to a refugee crisis
00:18:58.253 --> 00:18:58.853
Responded to a refugee crisis in armenia.
00:18:58.987 --> 00:18:59.254
In armenia. i think that's a key point as
00:18:59.387 --> 00:18:59.988
I think that's a key point as well.
00:19:00.121 --> 00:19:00.288
Well. the nagorno-karabakh conflict
00:19:00.421 --> 00:19:01.889
The nagorno-karabakh conflict just a year and a half ago we
00:19:02.023 --> 00:19:02.790
Just a year and a half ago we were already, you know, staging
00:19:02.924 --> 00:19:05.960
Were already, you know, staging boxes and kits there as well of
00:19:06.094 --> 00:19:06.794
Boxes and kits there as well of food and of hygiene supplies.
00:19:06.928 --> 00:19:07.495
Food and of hygiene supplies. so we have some of it on hand
00:19:07.629 --> 00:19:09.831
So we have some of it on hand already.
00:19:09.964 --> 00:19:10.164
Already. we had money already in country
00:19:10.298 --> 00:19:10.898
We had money already in country that we prepared for this as
00:19:11.032 --> 00:19:11.633
That we prepared for this as well and it's not the first
00:19:11.766 --> 00:19:13.501
Well and it's not the first time we've dealt with refugee
00:19:13.635 --> 00:19:14.202
Time we've dealt with refugee crises in response to a war.
00:19:14.335 --> 00:19:14.936
Crises in response to a war. you.
00:19:15.069 --> 00:19:17.071
You. >> you think about ukraine and
00:19:17.205 --> 00:19:17.905
>> you think about ukraine and russia where we were right
00:19:18.039 --> 00:19:18.573
Russia where we were right there on the border in poland.
00:19:18.706 --> 00:19:19.340
There on the border in poland. and so we have experience doing
00:19:19.474 --> 00:19:21.042
And so we have experience doing this.
00:19:21.175 --> 00:19:21.342
This. we've got contacts throughout
00:19:21.476 --> 00:19:22.076
We've got contacts throughout the region.
00:19:22.210 --> 00:19:22.477
The region. and so certainly i think our
00:19:22.610 --> 00:19:25.179
And so certainly i think our team today is having trouble
00:19:25.313 --> 00:19:25.880
Team today is having trouble getting in because so many
00:19:26.014 --> 00:19:26.581
Getting in because so many flights have been canceled in
00:19:26.714 --> 00:19:27.348
Flights have been canceled in the middle east.
00:19:27.482 --> 00:19:28.516
The middle east. but again, having that presence
00:19:28.650 --> 00:19:29.317
But again, having that presence already there allows us to
00:19:29.450 --> 00:19:30.018
Already there allows us to activate.
00:19:30.151 --> 00:19:32.353
Activate. >> you you mentioned it it this
00:19:32.487 --> 00:19:36.124
>> you you mentioned it it this isn't our first time dealing
00:19:36.257 --> 00:19:36.858
Isn't our first time dealing with refugees coming from a
00:19:36.991 --> 00:19:39.827
With refugees coming from a war.
00:19:39.961 --> 00:19:40.094
War. >> how is this different or
00:19:40.228 --> 00:19:43.498
>> how is this different or similar to what you experienced
00:19:43.631 --> 00:19:44.265
Similar to what you experienced in ukraine i think it's
00:19:44.399 --> 00:19:48.036
In ukraine i think it's different in the sense that
00:19:48.169 --> 00:19:48.736
Different in the sense that right now there isn't been full
00:19:48.870 --> 00:19:51.039
Right now there isn't been full scale sort of boots on the
00:19:51.172 --> 00:19:51.739
Scale sort of boots on the ground war where everybody is
00:19:51.873 --> 00:19:54.942
Ground war where everybody is is leaving the country in mass?
00:19:55.076 --> 00:19:55.710
Is leaving the country in mass? you know we saw ukraine,
00:19:55.843 --> 00:19:56.377
You know we saw ukraine, russia, they heading west in
00:19:56.511 --> 00:19:58.346
Russia, they heading west in hurry.
00:19:58.479 --> 00:19:58.646
Hurry. everybody was heading that
00:19:58.780 --> 00:19:59.314
Everybody was heading that direction.
00:19:59.447 --> 00:19:59.681
Direction. we knew exactly where they were
00:19:59.814 --> 00:20:00.448
We knew exactly where they were coming here.
00:20:00.581 --> 00:20:00.848
Coming here. we where they're going to go to
00:20:00.982 --> 00:20:02.984
We where they're going to go to turkey.
00:20:03.117 --> 00:20:03.318
Turkey. they're going to go to
00:20:03.451 --> 00:20:03.951
They're going to go to azerbaijan.
00:20:04.085 --> 00:20:04.352
Azerbaijan. will they come to armenia?
00:20:04.485 --> 00:20:05.053
Will they come to armenia? that's the safest place for our
00:20:05.620 --> 00:20:06.421
That's the safest place for our team to work where we have our
00:20:06.554 --> 00:20:07.288
Team to work where we have our largest network.
00:20:07.422 --> 00:20:09.724
Largest network. and so i think some of it is a
00:20:09.857 --> 00:20:10.625
And so i think some of it is a little bit of a wait and see
00:20:10.758 --> 00:20:11.326
Little bit of a wait and see and we're already dealing with
00:20:11.459 --> 00:20:12.060
And we're already dealing with iranian refugees that came
00:20:12.193 --> 00:20:13.061
Iranian refugees that came after operation midnight hammer
00:20:13.194 --> 00:20:13.828
After operation midnight hammer in june june.
00:20:13.961 --> 00:20:17.065
In june june. and so we've been working with
00:20:17.198 --> 00:20:17.832
And so we've been working with that group.
00:20:17.965 --> 00:20:18.232
That group. we know them.
00:20:18.366 --> 00:20:18.666
We know them. and so it is a safe place for
00:20:18.800 --> 00:20:20.601
And so it is a safe place for iranians to come but many of
00:20:20.735 --> 00:20:21.336
Iranians to come but many of them want to just go back home
00:20:21.469 --> 00:20:22.136
Them want to just go back home to a free iran waiting to see
00:20:22.270 --> 00:20:24.772

Those who try to excuse these sins.

Sins. and then he said don't live as

Foolish but live as wise so we can see that the foolish are

We remain and with jesus. if i want to maintain

If i want to maintain fellowship with my wife means i
00:48:45.644 --> 00:48:49.382
Fellowship with my wife means i am not going to commit
00:48:49.515 --> 00:48:49.982
Am not going to commit adultery, i am going to do
00:48:50.116 --> 00:48:52.685
Adultery, i am going to do things to offend her.
00:48:52.818 --> 00:48:53.285
Things to offend her. too many christians are
00:48:53.419 --> 00:48:55.788
Too many christians are themselves today with the very
00:48:55.921 --> 00:48:56.522
Themselves today with the very things that drove the nails
00:48:56.655 --> 00:48:59.592
Things that drove the nails into jesus's hands.
00:48:59.725 --> 00:49:00.126
Into jesus's hands. too many are sleeping with the
00:49:00.259 --> 00:49:03.596
Too many are sleeping with the world thinking they pray to

Tell them hey first of all walking there's nothing
00:49:12.872 --> 00:49:15.174
Walking there's nothing greater.
00:49:15.307 --> 00:49:15.508
Greater. i've been doing it for 50 years
00:49:15.641 --> 00:49:18.144
I've been doing it for 50 years and there's nothing greater in
00:49:18.277 --> 00:49:21.814
And there's nothing greater in this life.
00:49:21.947 --> 00:49:22.181

I want to reach the lost in the church before he returns.
00:49:27.887 --> 00:49:29.855
Church before he returns. >> have we been a little bit
00:49:29.989 --> 00:49:30.689
>> have we been a little bit asleep at the.
00:49:30.823 --> 00:49:33.125
Asleep at the. you know i know i've loved your
00:49:33.259 --> 00:49:33.993
You know i know i've loved your past book the fear of the lord
00:49:34.126 --> 00:49:36.662
Past book the fear of the lord .
00:49:36.796 --> 00:49:36.896
. do we fear the lord?
00:49:37.029 --> 00:49:37.630
Do we fear the lord? not afraid.
00:49:37.763 --> 00:49:38.030
Not afraid. but reverend.
00:49:38.164 --> 00:49:41.000
But reverend. >> well, i mean the fear of the
00:49:41.133 --> 00:49:42.268
>> well, i mean the fear of the lord the lord is not to be
00:49:42.401 --> 00:49:45.671
Lord the lord is not to be scared of god.
00:49:45.805 --> 00:49:46.138
Scared of god. it's actually being terrified,
00:49:46.272 --> 00:49:46.872
It's actually being terrified, terry, of being away from god.
00:49:47.006 --> 00:49:48.741
Terry, of being away from god. >> if you look at isaiah 33 six
00:49:48.874 --> 00:49:49.842
>> if you look at isaiah 33 six it's god's treasure.
00:49:49.975 --> 00:49:52.678
It's god's treasure. think about it.
00:49:52.812 --> 00:49:53.145
Think about it. he's given it to us as a
00:49:53.279 --> 00:49:54.180
He's given it to us as a treasure.
00:49:54.313 --> 00:49:56.615
Treasure. jesus delighted in it and paul
00:49:56.749 --> 00:49:57.383
Jesus delighted in it and paul said we mature our salvation
00:49:57.516 --> 00:50:00.686
Said we mature our salvation through fear and trembling not
00:50:00.820 --> 00:50:01.420
Through fear and trembling not love and kindness.
00:50:01.554 --> 00:50:01.921
Love and kindness. so the fear of the lord gives
00:50:04.390 --> 00:50:05.324
So the fear of the lord gives us the power to walk away from
00:50:05.458 --> 00:50:08.494
Us the power to walk away from evil and from sin the very
00:50:08.627 --> 00:50:09.161
Evil and from sin the very thing that would destroy us.
00:50:09.295 --> 00:50:12.498
Thing that would destroy us. so it takes the love of god and
00:50:12.631 --> 00:50:13.566
So it takes the love of god and it takes the fear of god keep
00:50:13.699 --> 00:50:15.935
It takes the fear of god keep us in an intimate relationship
00:50:16.068 --> 00:50:16.769
Us in an intimate relationship with our lord god our creator
00:50:16.902 --> 00:50:20.072
With our lord god our creator in this day in this hour that
00:50:20.206 --> 00:50:21.006
In this day in this hour that we all that we see happening.
00:50:21.140 --> 00:50:24.376
We all that we see happening. the question rises should we
00:50:24.510 --> 00:50:28.147
The question rises should we then live?
00:50:28.280 --> 00:50:28.514
Then live? what should believers who are
00:50:28.647 --> 00:50:29.215
What should believers who are anticipating and we should be
00:50:29.348 --> 00:50:32.785
Anticipating and we should be doing that anticipating the
00:50:32.918 --> 00:50:33.486
Doing that anticipating the return of christ should we be
00:50:33.619 --> 00:50:36.222
Return of christ should we be doing john?
00:50:36.355 --> 00:50:36.622
Doing john? >> there's only one description
00:50:36.755 --> 00:50:39.024
>> there's only one description of the church jesus is coming
00:50:39.158 --> 00:50:39.758
Of the church jesus is coming back for one.
00:50:39.892 --> 00:50:40.192
Back for one. only.
00:50:40.326 --> 00:50:43.295
Only. only one not at leadership
00:50:43.429 --> 00:50:43.963
Only one not at leadership church.
00:50:44.096 --> 00:50:44.296
Church. i believe in leadership, not at
00:50:44.430 --> 00:50:45.064
I believe in leadership, not at community church.
00:50:45.197 --> 00:50:46.632
Community church. i believe in community.
00:50:46.765 --> 00:50:47.266
I believe in community. god even said it's not good
00:50:47.399 --> 00:50:48.000
God even said it's not good that man's alone.
00:50:48.133 --> 00:50:50.803
That man's alone. not a serving church is
00:50:50.936 --> 00:50:51.470
Not a serving church is important as serving church it
00:50:51.604 --> 00:50:53.706
Important as serving church it .
00:50:53.839 --> 00:50:53.939
. and jesus came as one who
00:50:54.073 --> 00:50:56.876
And jesus came as one who serves the only description is
00:50:57.009 --> 00:50:57.610
Serves the only description is a holy church means she's got
00:50:57.743 --> 00:51:00.279
A holy church means she's got not got the spots of the world
00:51:00.412 --> 00:51:01.213
Not got the spots of the world on she has set herself apart.
00:51:01.347 --> 00:51:04.750
On she has set herself apart. see, here's the problem terry
00:51:04.884 --> 00:51:07.953
See, here's the problem terry so many of us look at the
00:51:08.087 --> 00:51:08.821
So many of us look at the return of jesus as an an event.
00:51:08.954 --> 00:51:11.624
Return of jesus as an an event. what i realized when i started
00:51:11.757 --> 00:51:12.458
What i realized when i started really digging is that the
00:51:12.591 --> 00:51:15.728
Really digging is that the wedding of the ages it's a
00:51:15.861 --> 00:51:19.098
Wedding of the ages it's a groom that's just waiting for

Groom that's just waiting for his dad to go get your girl and

His dad to go get your girl and it's a bride that is absolutely
00:51:23.569 --> 00:51:26.805
It's a bride that is absolutely anticipating with great anxiety
00:51:26.939 --> 00:51:27.540
Anticipating with great anxiety well, not anxiety but with
00:51:27.673 --> 00:51:31.110
Well, not anxiety but with great anticipation of her
00:51:31.243 --> 00:51:31.777
Great anticipation of her coming groom if you think about
00:51:31.911 --> 00:51:34.880
Coming groom if you think about a wedding i wasn't dreading i
00:51:35.014 --> 00:51:38.584
A wedding i wasn't dreading i got married to lisa 44 years

Got married to lisa 44 years ago.
00:51:39.451 --> 00:51:39.585

>> i couldn't wait. >> that engagement of four
00:51:42.121 --> 00:51:44.657
>> that engagement of four months seemed like four years.
00:51:44.790 --> 00:51:45.424
Months seemed like four years. every single day i was so
00:51:45.558 --> 00:51:46.325
Every single day i was so excited to be united with my

Excited to be united with my bride and that is the way jesus
00:51:49.528 --> 00:51:52.298
Bride and that is the way jesus with us and that's the way we

With us and that's the way we should be with him.
00:51:53.265 --> 00:51:53.699
Should be with him. >> would you talk for just a
00:51:53.832 --> 00:51:57.069
>> would you talk for just a moment we've got like a minute
