Some would even say that we're witnessing biblical prophecy unfold in real time. Stakelbeck Tonight will make sense of these stunning developments through a bold and biblical lens.

- Welcome to stakelbeck tonight.
- 00:00:03.593 --> 00:00:05.195
- I'm erick stakelbeck.
- 00:00:05.195 --> 00:00:06.463
- And the assassination culture we're seeing in america right
- 00:00:06.463 --> 00:00:09.833
- Now is not a problem coming from both sides of the aisle.
- 00:00:09.833 --> 00:00:14.804
- I know that's what the mainstream media runs with.
- 00:00:14.804 --> 00:00:17.340
- Every time
- 00:00:17.340 --> 00:00:18.007
- There's an attempt
- 00:00:18.007 --> 00:00:18.942
- On a conservative is life
- 00:00:18.942 --> 00:00:20.910
- And there's been a whole
- 00:00:20.910 --> 00:00:22.112
- Lot of them in recent years, including this past weekend
- 00:00:22.112 --> 00:00:24.781
- When president trump was targeted for death yet again
- 00:00:24.781 --> 00:00:28.384
- By a radical leftist
- 00:00:28.384 --> 00:00:29.919
- At the white house correspondents dinner in dc.
- 00:00:29.919 --> 00:00:33.389
- Both sides need to lower the temperature, democrat
- 00:00:33.389 --> 00:00:36.860
- Leaders tell us, even as they lead the charge
- 00:00:36.860 --> 00:00:40.830
- In demonizing president trump on a daily basis.
- 00:00:40.830 --> 00:00:44.767
- Large segments among the media, democrat politicians
- 00:00:44.767 --> 00:00:48.471
- And left
- 00:00:48.471 --> 00:00:49.639
- Wing influencers all agree that donald trump is a fascist
- 00:00:49.639 --> 00:00:53.776
- And an imminent threat to our nation, who must be stopped.
- 00:00:53.776 --> 00:00:57.881
- They've said so publicly, repeatedly,
- 00:00:57.881 --> 00:01:01.117
- And then they express shock when one of their followers
- 00:01:01.117 --> 00:01:04.654
- Takes up arms
- 00:01:04.654 --> 00:01:06.122
- And tries to kill a man they've dubbed a modern day hitler.
- 00:01:06.122 --> 00:01:10.393
- Here was the democrat house minority leader hakeem jeffries,
- 00:01:10.393 --> 00:01:13.730
- Just three days
- 00:01:13.730 --> 00:01:15.498
- Before the latest attempt on president trump's life.
- 00:01:15.498 --> 00:01:18.801
- We are in an era
- 00:01:19.202 --> 00:01:21.738
- Of maximum warfare
- 00:01:22.172 --> 00:01:25.642
- Everywhere, all the time.
- 00:01:26.209 --> 00:01:30.580
- Maximum warfare everywhere.
- 00:01:31.181 --> 00:01:34.150
- All the time.
- 00:01:34.150 --> 00:01:35.652
- He doesn't seem too eager to tone down the rhetoric.
- 00:01:35.652 --> 00:01:39.189
- And who could forget this tweet from then president
- 00:01:39.189 --> 00:01:41.791
- Joe biden a few months before the 2024 election?
- 00:01:41.791 --> 00:01:45.562
- Donald trump is a genuine threat to this nation, he wrote.
- 00:01:45.562 --> 00:01:49.832
- He's a threat to our freedom.
- 00:01:49.832 --> 00:01:51.568
- He's a threat to our democracy.
- 00:01:51.568 --> 00:01:53.836
- He's literally a threat to everything america stands for.
- 00:01:53.836 --> 00:01:58.441
- A few weeks after that tweet, we had butler, pennsylvania.
- 00:01:58.441 --> 00:02:02.011
- Two months after that, we had a crazed left wing gunman
- 00:02:02.011 --> 00:02:05.548
- Tried to gunned down trump on his golf course in florida.
- 00:02:05.548 --> 00:02:09.752
- Has the left toned down its rhetoric since then?
- 00:02:09.752 --> 00:02:12.822
- Of course not.
- 00:02:13.156 --> 00:02:14.290
- It's only intensified even after a leftist plotted
- 00:02:14.290 --> 00:02:17.860
- To murder supreme court justice brett kavanaugh,
- 00:02:17.860 --> 00:02:20.830
- Even after a leftist bernie sanders supporter
- 00:02:20.830 --> 00:02:23.566
- Nearly killed house majority leader steve scalise,
- 00:02:23.566 --> 00:02:27.003
- Even after two attempts on president trump's life.
- 00:02:27.003 --> 00:02:29.839
- And even after a transgender activist allegedly murdered
- 00:02:29.839 --> 00:02:33.543
- Charlie kirk.
- 00:02:33.543 --> 00:02:34.777
- Statements like what you were about to see remain par
- 00:02:34.777 --> 00:02:37.947
- For the course for today's democrat leaders.
- 00:02:37.947 --> 00:02:41.184
- Watch is donald trump an existential threat to democracy?
- 00:02:41.184 --> 00:02:46.022
- He is an existential threat to democracy.
- 00:02:46.022 --> 00:02:48.625
- The former chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, mark milley,
- 00:02:48.625 --> 00:02:52.228
- Said no one has ever been more dangerous to this country
- 00:02:52.228 --> 00:02:56.666
- Than donald trump, and he is a fascist to his core.
- 00:02:56.666 --> 00:02:59.669
- Let that sink in, and don't be a bit afraid of saying it,
- 00:02:59.669 --> 00:03:02.839
- Because that's exactly who he is.
- 00:03:02.839 --> 00:03:04.440
- An authoritarian criminal presidency fueled by corruption
- 00:03:04.440 --> 00:03:09.479
- And bigotry, and an ascendant right wing extremist movement.
- 00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:15.718
- And then there is
- 00:03:16.152 --> 00:03:17.320
- Clinton operative and democrat strategist james carville.
- 00:03:17.320 --> 00:03:21.090
- Remember him?
- 00:03:21.090 --> 00:03:22.225
- Here's his latest strategy regarding president trump.
- 00:03:22.225 --> 00:03:25.928
- I want to be clear on this.
- 00:03:25.928 --> 00:03:26.863
- I do not want that man to die.
- 00:03:26.863 --> 00:03:28.765
- I want to i want to watch him suffer.
- 00:03:28.765 --> 00:03:31.234
- And i can't watch a dead person suffer.
- 00:03:31.234 --> 00:03:33.569
- So i want him to be fully cognizant.
- 00:03:33.569 --> 00:03:36.539
- Come november.
- 00:03:36.539 --> 00:03:37.407
- So when people tell him,
- 00:03:37.407 --> 00:03:40.576
- Nice guy, remember what they say.
- 00:03:40.576 --> 00:03:43.079
- There must be maximum warfare against the fascist, racist
- 00:03:43.079 --> 00:03:47.150
- Trump administration,
- 00:03:47.150 --> 00:03:48.251
- Which they say is intentionally destroying our country.
- 00:03:48.251 --> 00:03:52.288
- He must be stopped.
- 00:03:52.288 --> 00:03:53.389
- They tell us at all costs.
- 00:03:53.389 --> 00:03:55.558
- Which brings us to saturday night
- 00:03:55.558 --> 00:03:57.126
- At the washington hilton hotel in d.c..
- 00:03:57.126 --> 00:04:00.096
- A 31 year old liberal from california
- 00:04:00.096 --> 00:04:02.165
- Named cole allen attempted to storm the ballroom
- 00:04:02.165 --> 00:04:05.101
- At the hilton and gunned down trump administration
- 00:04:05.101 --> 00:04:08.004
- Officials who assembled
- 00:04:08.004 --> 00:04:09.505
- For the annual white house correspondents dinner.
- 00:04:09.505 --> 00:04:12.075
- Cole managed to shoot one secret service agent,
- 00:04:12.075 --> 00:04:14.977
- Who was thankfully unharmed
- 00:04:14.977 --> 00:04:17.046
- Because he was wearing a bulletproof vest.
- 00:04:17.046 --> 00:04:19.382
- Cole was stopped
- 00:04:19.382 --> 00:04:20.650
- Before doing any further damage and was arraigned today in d.c.
- 00:04:20.650 --> 00:04:24.387
- He'll face multiple charges and a long prison term,
- 00:04:24.387 --> 00:04:27.724
- But many questions remain, including how he was able
- 00:04:27.724 --> 00:04:31.461
- To get so close to the ballroom in the first place.
- 00:04:31.461 --> 00:04:34.931
- Now, cole is a teacher and a graduate of prestigious
- 00:04:34.931 --> 00:04:38.601
- Caltech university.
- 00:04:38.601 --> 00:04:39.936
- Not the traditional profile
- 00:04:39.936 --> 00:04:41.838
- For a would be presidential assassin.
- 00:04:41.838 --> 00:04:44.273
- Yet his social media accounts show that he was a big supporter
- 00:04:44.273 --> 00:04:47.877
- Of left wing causes.
- 00:04:47.877 --> 00:04:49.345
- And it's clear from the manifesto
- 00:04:49.345 --> 00:04:51.314
- That he sent to his family
- 00:04:51.314 --> 00:04:52.749
- Prior to saturday's events that he had internalized
- 00:04:52.749 --> 00:04:56.352
- The nonstop trump is a fascist madness coming from democrats,
- 00:04:56.352 --> 00:05:01.357
- Cole wrote of the president, quote,
- 00:05:01.357 --> 00:05:03.259
- I am no longer willing to permit a pedophile, rapist,
- 00:05:03.259 --> 00:05:06.963
- And traitor to coat my hands with his crimes.
- 00:05:06.963 --> 00:05:10.199
- You can hear
- 00:05:10.533 --> 00:05:11.701
- The same kind of language from democrats on capitol hill
- 00:05:11.701 --> 00:05:14.003
- Any day, or in any number of leftist podcasts.
- 00:05:14.003 --> 00:05:17.807
- Folks on the left today is a very dark place,
- 00:05:17.807 --> 00:05:21.177
- Anti-god, anti-family,
- 00:05:21.177 --> 00:05:23.980
- Anti-capitalism, anti law enforcement, anti-israel,
- 00:05:23.980 --> 00:05:28.151
- Pro islam, pro transgenderism and pro violence.
- 00:05:28.151 --> 00:05:32.755
- Don't kid yourself.
- 00:05:33.222 --> 00:05:34.657
- The likes of old school democrats like fdr, truman
- 00:05:34.657 --> 00:05:38.528
- And jfk aren't walking through that door any time soon
- 00:05:38.528 --> 00:05:42.832
- Because aoc, ilhan omar and zoran
- 00:05:42.832 --> 00:05:46.702
- Mamdani have already kicked it down.
- 00:05:46.702 --> 00:05:49.972
- It's a dangerous moment for our country.
- 00:05:49.972 --> 00:05:52.275
- And up next, we'll dig deeper.
- 00:05:52.275 --> 00:06:11.861
- President trump was
- 00:06:12.328 --> 00:06:13.463
- Nearly assassinated again on saturday night.
- 00:06:13.463 --> 00:06:17.400
- Meanwhile, iran's regime has no cards left to play.
- 00:06:17.400 --> 00:06:21.737
- Folks, there's a lot going on at home and abroad.
- 00:06:21.737 --> 00:06:24.407
- And joining us now to break it all down
- 00:06:24.407 --> 00:06:26.142
- Is elizabeth pepco,
- 00:06:26.142 --> 00:06:27.477
- Political commentator and former spokesperson
- 00:06:27.477 --> 00:06:29.912
- For the republican national committee.
- 00:06:29.912 --> 00:06:32.048
- Elizabeth, always great to see you.
- 00:06:32.048 --> 00:06:33.916
- Hey, the media keeps saying
- 00:06:33.916 --> 00:06:35.117
- This is a problem on both sides of the aisle.
- 00:06:35.117 --> 00:06:37.119
- We need to tone down the political rhetoric.
- 00:06:37.119 --> 00:06:39.422
- And elizabeth,
- 00:06:39.422 --> 00:06:40.389
- It seems to me, although that they're saying
- 00:06:40.389 --> 00:06:42.758
- That this seems to be coming from the left.
- 00:06:42.758 --> 00:06:45.127
- Time and time again, the attempted
- 00:06:45.127 --> 00:06:47.196
- Assassination saturday night of president trump.
- 00:06:47.196 --> 00:06:49.632
- Democrat hardcore kamala harris supporter, his social media
- 00:06:49.632 --> 00:06:53.469
- Littered with pro left pro democrat messaging.
- 00:06:53.469 --> 00:06:56.906
- How do you see this?
- 00:06:56.906 --> 00:06:58.040
- Does this seem to be both sides of the aisle to you?
- 00:06:58.040 --> 00:07:01.177
- Well, look, two things can be true at once, eric.
- 00:07:02.144 --> 00:07:04.780
- Right?
- 00:07:04.780 --> 00:07:05.681
- We can all admit that anyone out there
- 00:07:05.681 --> 00:07:06.849
- That has any kind of negative feelings
- 00:07:06.849 --> 00:07:08.851
- To the point of wanting to harm
- 00:07:08.851 --> 00:07:10.052
- Someone
- 00:07:10.052 --> 00:07:10.686
- Who disagrees with them
- 00:07:10.686 --> 00:07:11.587
- Politically, that is a bad person
- 00:07:11.587 --> 00:07:13.489
- That someone we should not agree with.
- 00:07:13.489 --> 00:07:14.557
- And i'm sure if you look hard enough,
- 00:07:14.557 --> 00:07:16.025
- Of course, it exists on both sides of the aisle.
- 00:07:16.025 --> 00:07:18.661
- But there's a reason.
- 00:07:18.661 --> 00:07:19.495
- So many on the right believe
- 00:07:19.495 --> 00:07:20.963
- That it is really, really focused against us.
- 00:07:20.963 --> 00:07:23.432
- And so after the
- 00:07:23.432 --> 00:07:24.901
- Attempted assassination, thank god only attempted.
- 00:07:24.901 --> 00:07:27.236
- I actually looked into the numbers
- 00:07:27.236 --> 00:07:28.437
- Because i was curious myself why i had these overwhelming
- 00:07:28.437 --> 00:07:31.307
- Feelings. and i saw a yougov poll
- 00:07:31.307 --> 00:07:33.142
- I want to share with your audience.
- 00:07:33.142 --> 00:07:34.911
- 22% of liberals under 44 said it was okay to be happy
- 00:07:34.911 --> 00:07:39.181
- When a political opponent died.
- 00:07:39.181 --> 00:07:41.050
- That was versus
- 00:07:41.050 --> 00:07:42.251
- Only 6% of those who consider themselves conservatives.
- 00:07:42.251 --> 00:07:45.121
- At the same time, individuals were asked
- 00:07:45.121 --> 00:07:47.290
- If political violence can be justified.
- 00:07:47.290 --> 00:07:49.292
- 25% of liberals said yes versus only 3% of conservatives.
- 00:07:49.292 --> 00:07:53.829
- Well, we want those numbers to be zero on both sides.
- 00:07:53.829 --> 00:07:56.465
- Yeah, of course, but we're not wrong in thinking
- 00:07:56.465 --> 00:07:58.434
- That this ideology
- 00:07:58.434 --> 00:07:59.535
- Has taken over the far left, especially young folks.
- 00:07:59.535 --> 00:08:02.638
- We are seeing it in our streets.
- 00:08:02.638 --> 00:08:03.873
- They call for violence every single day.
- 00:08:03.873 --> 00:08:05.975
- If anyone was looking
- 00:08:05.975 --> 00:08:07.043
- At some of the signs that were being held up outside
- 00:08:07.043 --> 00:08:09.312
- Of the correspondents dinner, there were signs
- 00:08:09.312 --> 00:08:11.180
- Calling for death of those who didn't agree with.
- 00:08:11.180 --> 00:08:14.016
- So this is not something that we're making up.
- 00:08:14.016 --> 00:08:15.518
- It is an ideology.
- 00:08:15.518 --> 00:08:16.419
- Being taught, being indoctrinated
- 00:08:16.419 --> 00:08:18.120
- Into the minds of those on the left.
- 00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:20.122
- Yeah, elizabeth, great breakdown and it doesn't seem
- 00:08:20.122 --> 00:08:22.725
- That it's going away anytime soon.
- 00:08:22.725 --> 00:08:24.293
- Do you think the left will get the memo after this
- 00:08:24.293 --> 00:08:26.362
- Latest attempt saturday night, or will they just intensify
- 00:08:26.362 --> 00:08:29.699
- The rhetoric?
- 00:08:29.699 --> 00:08:30.733
- Because certainly they haven't dialed it down
- 00:08:30.733 --> 00:08:31.901
- Since the last two attempts on president trump's life.
- 00:08:31.901 --> 00:08:34.270
- That that's the problem, right?
- 00:08:34.904 --> 00:08:36.305
- I would sit here and hope for that.
- 00:08:36.305 --> 00:08:38.007
- I would love to tell you that.
- 00:08:38.007 --> 00:08:39.008
- I hope that after something this scary
- 00:08:39.008 --> 00:08:40.843
- That they all experience together,
- 00:08:40.843 --> 00:08:42.778
- They would learn their lesson.
- 00:08:42.778 --> 00:08:44.013
- But again, what happened in butler was, i mean, terrifying.
- 00:08:44.013 --> 00:08:47.550
- Donald trump literally was shot in the head on live tv.
- 00:08:47.550 --> 00:08:50.653
- We didn't know if he was alive or not.
- 00:08:50.653 --> 00:08:52.488
- We didn't know if he was going to be okay.
- 00:08:52.488 --> 00:08:54.023
- There were really moments there
- 00:08:54.023 --> 00:08:55.391
- That i think for the entire country.
- 00:08:55.391 --> 00:08:56.792
- You held your breath wondering if
- 00:08:56.792 --> 00:08:57.960
- He was going to stand back up.
- 00:08:57.960 --> 00:08:59.228
- And i genuinely thought
- 00:08:59.228 --> 00:09:00.596
- The only good thing that will come out of
- 00:09:00.596 --> 00:09:02.064
- That is that people would
- 00:09:02.064 --> 00:09:03.332
- Really quiet down and realize what matters.
- 00:09:03.332 --> 00:09:05.534
- We realize that when you lose, god forbid,
- 00:09:05.534 --> 00:09:07.236
- An american president, republican or democrat,
- 00:09:07.236 --> 00:09:09.305
- It is a horrible thing to happen
- 00:09:09.305 --> 00:09:10.706
- And realize that that can never happen again.
- 00:09:10.706 --> 00:09:13.309
- And that's, of course, the opposite of what we saw.
- 00:09:13.309 --> 00:09:15.478
- So look, i'm hopeful.
- 00:09:15.478 --> 00:09:16.512
- I know the president
- 00:09:16.512 --> 00:09:17.413
- Was actually calling up some journalists
- 00:09:17.413 --> 00:09:18.781
- That were in that room the day after,
- 00:09:18.781 --> 00:09:21.150
- That attempted assassination attempt
- 00:09:21.150 --> 00:09:22.752
- To see if they were okay.
- 00:09:22.752 --> 00:09:24.286
- He was asking them because, you know, they were shaken up.
- 00:09:24.286 --> 00:09:26.422
- So i can only hope, but i am not very optimistic
- 00:09:26.422 --> 00:09:29.492
- That that's going to be the case. of course.
- 00:09:29.492 --> 00:09:30.793
- Yeah.
- 00:09:30.793 --> 00:09:31.327
- And president trump
- 00:09:31.327 --> 00:09:32.261
- Said, look, the reason i'm being targeted,
- 00:09:32.261 --> 00:09:33.462
- He was asked about a saturday night after the attempt.
- 00:09:33.462 --> 00:09:36.032
- Elizabeth. he said, look, because i make an impact.
- 00:09:36.032 --> 00:09:38.934
- And i think it's really true.
- 00:09:38.934 --> 00:09:40.102
- He is the most impactful president of my lifetime.
- 00:09:40.102 --> 00:09:42.872
- And we see that very clearly right now in iran.
- 00:09:42.872 --> 00:09:45.441
- Look, he's got people taking
- 00:09:45.441 --> 00:09:46.542
- Trying to take shots at him, yet he's in the process
- 00:09:46.542 --> 00:09:49.545
- Of bringing down the world's number one
- 00:09:49.545 --> 00:09:51.047
- State sponsor of terrorism, god willing, the latest in iran.
- 00:09:51.047 --> 00:09:55.051
- What is your view on it?
- 00:09:55.051 --> 00:09:56.419
- The blockade working, the regime in big trouble.
- 00:09:56.419 --> 00:09:59.455
- Where do you see this heading?
- 00:09:59.455 --> 00:10:01.424
- Well, look, i
- 00:10:01.791 --> 00:10:02.792
- Think it's interesting when people tell me that
- 00:10:02.792 --> 00:10:03.993
- We don't have leverage here and that iran does, considering
- 00:10:03.993 --> 00:10:06.729
- We've taken out
- 00:10:06.729 --> 00:10:07.663
- How many of their leaders in a conflict
- 00:10:07.663 --> 00:10:09.832
- That's only been going on for weeks at this point.
- 00:10:09.832 --> 00:10:12.134
- I think it's interesting that people, again,
- 00:10:12.134 --> 00:10:14.103
- Unfortunately, in our country want to vote against us.
- 00:10:14.103 --> 00:10:16.772
- And for one of our, very long term adversaries.
- 00:10:16.772 --> 00:10:19.742
- But i think for anyone wanting
- 00:10:19.742 --> 00:10:20.910
- To be honest about the situation,
- 00:10:20.910 --> 00:10:22.478
- They would admit that we have all the leverage in the world.
- 00:10:22.478 --> 00:10:24.880
- We have the most powerful military in the world.
- 00:10:24.880 --> 00:10:26.849
- What we have done to their navy alone, but
- 00:10:26.849 --> 00:10:28.818
- We have been able to obliterate,
- 00:10:28.818 --> 00:10:30.619
- Like i said in a matter of weeks, tells
- 00:10:30.619 --> 00:10:32.221
- The entire world that we have all the leverage.
- 00:10:32.221 --> 00:10:34.590
- President trump is literally restraining himself
- 00:10:34.590 --> 00:10:36.859
- Right now from any kind of full scale war,
- 00:10:36.859 --> 00:10:38.828
- Because he doesn't want innocent iranians to be harmed.
- 00:10:38.828 --> 00:10:41.497
- So he's hoping
- 00:10:41.497 --> 00:10:42.565
- That they come to the table, that a deal is made.
- 00:10:42.565 --> 00:10:44.734
- He has made himself very, very clear since 2015.
- 00:10:44.734 --> 00:10:47.269
- They cannot have a nuclear weapon.
- 00:10:47.269 --> 00:10:49.238
- We know what happens if they do, of course.
- 00:10:49.238 --> 00:10:51.407
- And i think for him, he's just hoping that they
- 00:10:51.407 --> 00:10:53.342
- Make the right decision again.
- 00:10:53.342 --> 00:10:54.610
- So no innocent civilians have to be harmed.
- 00:10:54.610 --> 00:10:56.645
- Yeah.
- 00:10:56.645 --> 00:10:57.546
- He's got all the leverage in the world
- 00:10:57.546 --> 00:10:58.781
- And he's not afraid to use it. elizabeth, about a minute left.
- 00:10:58.781 --> 00:11:00.416
- You talk a bit about the difference.
- 00:11:00.416 --> 00:11:02.685
- That kind of strong leadership, peace through strength
- 00:11:02.685 --> 00:11:05.588
- Makes and how trump is different than his seven predecessors
- 00:11:05.588 --> 00:11:08.924
- In dealing with iran's regime.
- 00:11:08.924 --> 00:11:11.427
- Well, look, i've talked about it for years.
- 00:11:12.294 --> 00:11:13.863
- The reason that i actually got involved
- 00:11:13.863 --> 00:11:15.531
- In politics to begin with
- 00:11:15.531 --> 00:11:16.732
- Was that iran nuclear deal under barack obama,
- 00:11:16.732 --> 00:11:19.502
- That was the first time i paid attention to anything.
- 00:11:19.502 --> 00:11:21.537
- I think i was maybe 17 or 18 years old,
- 00:11:21.537 --> 00:11:23.806
- And i, i decided this could not stand,
- 00:11:23.806 --> 00:11:25.808
- And i couldn't understand
- 00:11:25.808 --> 00:11:27.176
- Why a president of the united states
- 00:11:27.176 --> 00:11:29.011
- Would sign a deal with our adversary.
- 00:11:29.011 --> 00:11:30.980
- That didn't stop them from getting a nuclear weapon.
- 00:11:30.980 --> 00:11:33.182
- It's so late,
- 00:11:33.182 --> 00:11:33.983
- Delayed it really just making sure
- 00:11:33.983 --> 00:11:35.518
- That his presidency went smoothly.
- 00:11:35.518 --> 00:11:37.253
- But knowing that americans in the future
- 00:11:37.253 --> 00:11:39.121
- Would have to suffer
- 00:11:39.121 --> 00:11:40.256
- The exact same consequences of, god forbid, a nuclear
- 00:11:40.256 --> 00:11:42.925
- Iran, i couldn't understand
- 00:11:42.925 --> 00:11:44.260
- Why we would really choose appeasement over strength
- 00:11:44.260 --> 00:11:47.062
- When it comes to an enemy that chants death to america
- 00:11:47.062 --> 00:11:49.498
- Every single day, this is the only president
- 00:11:49.498 --> 00:11:51.867
- That actually leads with strength,
- 00:11:51.867 --> 00:11:53.569
- Knowing that appeasing our enemies,
- 00:11:53.569 --> 00:11:54.904
- Selling them billions of dollars
- 00:11:54.904 --> 00:11:56.939
- In pallets of cash is not a great idea.
- 00:11:56.939 --> 00:11:59.675
- Letting them know that if they hit us,
- 00:11:59.675 --> 00:12:01.143
- We will hit them back ten times harder is the only way.
- 00:12:01.143 --> 00:12:04.079
- After what happened on october 7th
- 00:12:04.079 --> 00:12:05.614
- And watching
- 00:12:05.614 --> 00:12:06.448
- Joe biden sit back while they held
- 00:12:06.448 --> 00:12:08.250
- Not just israelis, but americans hostage, it broke my heart.
- 00:12:08.250 --> 00:12:11.921
- That's not the america that i grew up
- 00:12:11.921 --> 00:12:13.389
- In, not the america that i love.
- 00:12:13.389 --> 00:12:14.924
- Donald trump
- 00:12:14.924 --> 00:12:15.724
- Was the reason that they came back,
- 00:12:15.724 --> 00:12:16.792
- And he's the reason that we're going to be safe
- 00:12:16.792 --> 00:12:18.060
- For future generations as well. amen.
- 00:12:18.060 --> 00:12:20.062
- Elizabeth. well said.
- 00:12:20.062 --> 00:12:20.963
- Sanity and common
- 00:12:20.963 --> 00:12:21.997
- Sense have returned folks who get a lot of that.
- 00:12:21.997 --> 00:12:23.933
- If you follow elizabeth on x and across social media.
- 00:12:23.933 --> 00:12:26.902
- Be sure to check her out. elizabeth, thanks so much.
- 00:12:26.902 --> 00:12:28.771
- Great stuff. god bless. we'll see you again soon.
- 00:12:28.771 --> 00:12:30.840
- And coming up after the break, more
- 00:12:30.840 --> 00:12:32.508
- On the cultural and spiritual battles
- 00:12:32.508 --> 00:12:35.778
- We're waging in america right now.
- 00:12:35.778 --> 00:12:37.580
- You won't want to miss this.
- 00:12:37.580 --> 00:12:38.848
- Our good friend billy hollowell is here with a great breakdown.
- 00:12:38.848 --> 00:12:40.583
- That's next. stick around.
- 00:12:40.583 --> 00:12:48.004
- That's next. stick around.
- 00:12:48.004 --> 00:12:51.590
- Tensions
- 00:12:51.857 --> 00:12:52.891
- Are rising across the globe, but here at home,
- 00:12:52.891 --> 00:12:55.627
- We've got a spiritual awakening unfolding from record numbers
- 00:12:55.627 --> 00:12:59.464
- Of people attending church services to bible sales climbing
- 00:12:59.464 --> 00:13:03.168
- To a growing number of young people embracing the gospel.
- 00:13:03.168 --> 00:13:06.738
- Something is stirring in america.
- 00:13:06.738 --> 00:13:09.307
- Joining us to share more is our good friend
- 00:13:09.307 --> 00:13:11.142
- And cbn news host, billy hollowell,
- 00:13:11.142 --> 00:13:13.245
- Also the host of a great new documentary
- 00:13:13.245 --> 00:13:15.213
- Investigating the supernatural, angels and demons.
- 00:13:15.213 --> 00:13:17.949
- Folks, a must watch.
- 00:13:17.949 --> 00:13:19.618
- Great to see you my friend.
- 00:13:19.618 --> 00:13:20.485
- Great to have you here with us in dallas.
- 00:13:20.485 --> 00:13:21.920
- It's great to be here.
- 00:13:21.920 --> 00:13:22.954
- Yeah. of course.
- 00:13:22.954 --> 00:13:23.955
- And hey, you were just in washington, d.c.,
- 00:13:23.955 --> 00:13:25.357
- By the way, taking part in america reads the bible.
- 00:13:25.357 --> 00:13:28.627
- Billy, this is amazing.
- 00:13:28.627 --> 00:13:29.995
- A week long event.
- 00:13:29.995 --> 00:13:32.297
- I would call it reading scripture in dc.
- 00:13:32.297 --> 00:13:34.866
- President trump read from scripture publicly.
- 00:13:34.866 --> 00:13:37.068
- Amazing. tell us more about it.
- 00:13:37.068 --> 00:13:38.470
- Yeah, i mean, this is an incredible event.
- 00:13:38.470 --> 00:13:40.205
- And i want to give
- 00:13:40.205 --> 00:13:41.172
- I want to give some credit to bunny pounds.
- 00:13:41.172 --> 00:13:42.841
- She is the person who organized this.
- 00:13:42.841 --> 00:13:44.442
- And when she first told me about it two years ago,
- 00:13:44.442 --> 00:13:45.944
- I got to be honest, i was like, okay, this sounds crazy.
- 00:13:45.944 --> 00:13:48.546
- You're going to raise millions of dollars,
- 00:13:48.546 --> 00:13:49.781
- You're going to bring hundreds of people together.
- 00:13:49.781 --> 00:13:51.616
- And she did it.
- 00:13:51.616 --> 00:13:52.417
- If anybody could do it, it's bunny.
- 00:13:52.417 --> 00:13:53.985
- And she basically rallied everybody in media in hollywood,
- 00:13:53.985 --> 00:13:58.757
- You know, basically, you know, professors
- 00:13:58.757 --> 00:14:01.426
- And just well-known people who came together.
- 00:14:01.426 --> 00:14:03.929
- And as you said, for a week from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
- 00:14:03.929 --> 00:14:06.097
- At the museum of the bible,
- 00:14:06.097 --> 00:14:07.265
- Reading scripture, it's still going on as we speak.
- 00:14:07.265 --> 00:14:10.368
- And so she had asked me to read, and i had a chance
- 00:14:10.368 --> 00:14:12.537
- To read from numbers, which was very powerful.
- 00:14:12.537 --> 00:14:14.306
- But then she called me and asked
- 00:14:14.306 --> 00:14:15.307
- If i would speak at the opening event,
- 00:14:15.307 --> 00:14:17.409
- Which, i have to be honest with you,
- 00:14:17.409 --> 00:14:18.610
- Was probably
- 00:14:18.610 --> 00:14:19.778
- One of the greatest honors getting a chance to just join.
- 00:14:19.778 --> 00:14:22.247
- You know, people like candace cameron bury,
- 00:14:22.247 --> 00:14:24.049
- The speaker of the house, was there, mike johnson,
- 00:14:24.049 --> 00:14:25.884
- And getting a chance to sort of speaking to this moment
- 00:14:25.884 --> 00:14:28.954
- That we're in right now,
- 00:14:28.954 --> 00:14:30.221
- This incredible moment
- 00:14:30.221 --> 00:14:31.189
- Where the bible is center stage at a time
- 00:14:31.189 --> 00:14:33.024
- Where the culture feels like it's decaying.
- 00:14:33.024 --> 00:14:35.093
- We have life being given in such a powerful way.
- 00:14:35.093 --> 00:14:38.330
- Yeah, there's light in the darkness, no doubt.
- 00:14:38.330 --> 00:14:40.065
- And as i mentioned, billy, president trump read
- 00:14:40.065 --> 00:14:42.000
- Scripture publicly to see the commander in chief do.
- 00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:44.169
- That's a pretty big deal.
- 00:14:44.169 --> 00:14:45.103
- And also next month,
- 00:14:45.103 --> 00:14:46.538
- Rededicating the administration is rededicating the nation
- 00:14:46.538 --> 00:14:49.841
- To the lord in dc on the national mall.
- 00:14:49.841 --> 00:14:52.277
- This is a major,
- 00:14:52.277 --> 00:14:53.111
- I think, push forward for the lord
- 00:14:53.111 --> 00:14:55.580
- To have our administration pushing.
- 00:14:55.580 --> 00:14:57.282
- That seems to be a good thing.
- 00:14:57.282 --> 00:14:58.817
- Absolutely.
- 00:14:58.817 --> 00:15:00.051
- And look, you know, we're in a really unique window, right now.
- 00:15:00.051 --> 00:15:01.653
- It doesn't matter what you think
- 00:15:01.653 --> 00:15:02.854
- About individual personalities or what you think about the
- 00:15:02.854 --> 00:15:06.124
- People will have these debates.
- 00:15:06.124 --> 00:15:07.392
- Yeah.
- 00:15:07.392 --> 00:15:08.493
- What is happening right now is his administration
- 00:15:08.493 --> 00:15:09.928
- Has ushered in a time where we can say,
- 00:15:09.928 --> 00:15:11.963
- Look, god, please bless our nation,
- 00:15:11.963 --> 00:15:14.032
- A nation that has turned away from god in so many ways. right.
- 00:15:14.032 --> 00:15:16.935
- We've seen over the last 20 years in particular,
- 00:15:16.935 --> 00:15:20.238
- A really dangerous shift away from god.
- 00:15:20.238 --> 00:15:22.741
- And so when i look at that
- 00:15:22.741 --> 00:15:23.808
- And i look at where we are right now,
- 00:15:23.808 --> 00:15:25.010
- The fact that we're going to be
- 00:15:25.010 --> 00:15:25.844
- Dedicating the nation to the lord,
- 00:15:25.844 --> 00:15:27.312
- That there are people who are changing
- 00:15:27.312 --> 00:15:29.581
- And shifting things that were horrific,
- 00:15:29.581 --> 00:15:31.816
- That were happening in this country to children.
- 00:15:31.816 --> 00:15:33.885
- I mean, we can go down the line
- 00:15:33.885 --> 00:15:34.786
- Of the things that are happening.
- 00:15:34.786 --> 00:15:35.954
- Doesn't mean everything's perfect.
- 00:15:35.954 --> 00:15:37.222
- Yeah, but we are really on a great trajectory.
- 00:15:37.222 --> 00:15:39.424
- But i think people do also
- 00:15:39.424 --> 00:15:40.759
- Need to realize, and this is important,
- 00:15:40.759 --> 00:15:42.527
- We're in this moment.
- 00:15:42.527 --> 00:15:43.661
- We need to pray for this moment and be grateful for it,
- 00:15:43.661 --> 00:15:45.697
- But not let the guard down, because very quickly,
- 00:15:45.697 --> 00:15:48.900
- This can shift.
- 00:15:48.900 --> 00:15:49.801
- An election can shift everything.
- 00:15:49.801 --> 00:15:51.903
- And so we've got to remember that.
- 00:15:51.903 --> 00:15:53.671
- Yeah, i look at what democrats did
- 00:15:53.671 --> 00:15:55.173
- In virginia, the gerrymandering.
- 00:15:55.173 --> 00:15:56.741
- Now it's going to be massively democratic
- 00:15:56.741 --> 00:15:58.510
- In every district practically in virginia.
- 00:15:58.510 --> 00:15:59.978
- The midterms coming, of course.
- 00:15:59.978 --> 00:16:01.379
- So the battle continues.
- 00:16:01.379 --> 00:16:03.048
- As you said, we have to keep our foot
- 00:16:03.048 --> 00:16:04.249
- On the gas as ambassadors for christ.
- 00:16:04.249 --> 00:16:06.718
- Spiritual battle. no doubt.
- 00:16:06.718 --> 00:16:08.386
- And you're seeing this, billy,
- 00:16:08.386 --> 00:16:09.387
- Of course, investigating the supernatural,
- 00:16:09.387 --> 00:16:10.989
- The great documentaries you're doing at cbn.
- 00:16:10.989 --> 00:16:12.891
- But on your podcast and daily on cbn news,
- 00:16:12.891 --> 00:16:15.894
- You're covering the spiritual warfare,
- 00:16:15.894 --> 00:16:17.595
- The culture war in america.
- 00:16:17.595 --> 00:16:19.464
- Number one, it does seem to be intensifying.
- 00:16:19.464 --> 00:16:21.866
- I think you believe.
- 00:16:21.866 --> 00:16:23.001
- And number two talk a bit more about that window
- 00:16:23.001 --> 00:16:26.204
- We have right now
- 00:16:26.204 --> 00:16:27.205
- Because there's stirrings of revival i think
- 00:16:27.205 --> 00:16:29.140
- Especially among young people especially,
- 00:16:29.140 --> 00:16:30.775
- I think in the wake of charlie's death back in september,
- 00:16:30.775 --> 00:16:34.646
- Do you see kind of those dual tracks?
- 00:16:34.646 --> 00:16:36.681
- Okay, things are decaying.
- 00:16:36.681 --> 00:16:38.149
- But on the other hand, there is light in the darkness.
- 00:16:38.149 --> 00:16:40.452
- I have never in my life
- 00:16:40.452 --> 00:16:41.619
- Seen that spiritual battle that paul talks
- 00:16:41.619 --> 00:16:44.055
- About in ephesians six that poring over.
- 00:16:44.055 --> 00:16:46.224
- I've never seen the intensity of both sides. right?
- 00:16:46.224 --> 00:16:48.626
- We have that decay, that chaos that that is happening,
- 00:16:48.626 --> 00:16:51.529
- And it has been happening, but we have this revival
- 00:16:51.529 --> 00:16:54.165
- Happening at the same time.
- 00:16:54.165 --> 00:16:55.300
- And so i love watching that dynamic.
- 00:16:55.300 --> 00:16:57.469
- But even with charlie's death,
- 00:16:57.469 --> 00:16:59.504
- We saw the lord come in
- 00:16:59.504 --> 00:17:00.738
- And all this amazing stuff happened, right?
- 00:17:00.738 --> 00:17:03.074
- People coming to the lord.
- 00:17:03.074 --> 00:17:04.342
- And then we saw people squander that almost immediately. right.
- 00:17:04.342 --> 00:17:06.945
- And that that's the enemy coming back
- 00:17:06.945 --> 00:17:08.613
- And not liking what he was seeing happening.
- 00:17:08.613 --> 00:17:10.849
- And so we have got to continue to pray,
- 00:17:10.849 --> 00:17:13.118
- You know, part of
- 00:17:13.118 --> 00:17:14.152
- And i love ephesians six, and i talk about it
- 00:17:14.152 --> 00:17:15.854
- All the time to the point
- 00:17:15.854 --> 00:17:16.788
- That people are like, okay, billy, stop.
- 00:17:16.788 --> 00:17:17.922
- I'm like, no, this
- 00:17:17.922 --> 00:17:19.023
- You cannot understand what is happening in your life
- 00:17:19.023 --> 00:17:21.926
- In the country and our culture and our politics.
- 00:17:21.926 --> 00:17:24.129
- If we do not understand
- 00:17:24.129 --> 00:17:25.697
- What paul is talking
- 00:17:25.697 --> 00:17:26.731
- About in ephesians six, because it's in us versus
- 00:17:26.731 --> 00:17:29.834
- Them, battle in our minds, right?
- 00:17:29.834 --> 00:17:31.536
- It's democrats versus republicans,
- 00:17:31.536 --> 00:17:33.438
- And we fixate on that.
- 00:17:33.438 --> 00:17:34.639
- That doesn't mean we shouldn't have those debates.
- 00:17:34.639 --> 00:17:36.040
- We absolutely should.
- 00:17:36.040 --> 00:17:37.108
- But the real issue is far beyond that. yes.
- 00:17:37.108 --> 00:17:39.744
- And as christians, we have to acknowledge that and see it
- 00:17:39.744 --> 00:17:42.947
- And then say, okay, how do we operate from here?
- 00:17:42.947 --> 00:17:45.483
- If i see that somebody is doing
- 00:17:45.483 --> 00:17:47.185
- Something that is influenced by evil,
- 00:17:47.185 --> 00:17:48.953
- I need to be praying for that person
- 00:17:48.953 --> 00:17:50.488
- Instead of stopping at the fight
- 00:17:50.488 --> 00:17:51.823
- With that person, if that makes sense. it does.
- 00:17:51.823 --> 00:17:53.791
- You talked about billy the division
- 00:17:53.791 --> 00:17:55.360
- After charlie kirk's death.
- 00:17:55.360 --> 00:17:56.961
- Tucker carlson, remember him?
- 00:17:56.961 --> 00:17:59.097
- He's a big part of that.
- 00:17:59.097 --> 00:18:00.198
- And the strain of anti-semitism,
- 00:18:00.198 --> 00:18:01.766
- Anti-israel sentiment we see rising.
- 00:18:01.766 --> 00:18:03.868
- We're going to break that down
- 00:18:03.868 --> 00:18:04.903
- With billy as well after the break. stick around.
- 00:18:04.903 --> 00:18:07.005
- Much more to come.
- 00:18:07.005 --> 00:18:10.003
- Much more to come.
- 00:18:10.003 --> 00:18:12.980
- Welcome back to stakelbeck tonight
- 00:18:13.714 --> 00:18:15.249
- We're talking to our good friend billy hollowell, cbn news host
- 00:18:15.249 --> 00:18:17.885
- Host of a great documentary, folks
- 00:18:17.885 --> 00:18:19.854
- Investigating the supernatural angels and demons billy
- 00:18:19.854 --> 00:18:23.357
- I want to ask him more about that in a minute.
- 00:18:23.357 --> 00:18:25.126
- But in terms of the spiritual
- 00:18:25.126 --> 00:18:26.827
- Battle we're locked
- 00:18:26.827 --> 00:18:28.062
- In which you cover in great fashion cbn news tucker carlson,
- 00:18:28.062 --> 00:18:32.900
- Candace owens, megan kelly we can add her name to the list.
- 00:18:32.900 --> 00:18:36.170
- Billy, clearly on the anti-israel side,
- 00:18:36.170 --> 00:18:38.639
- This is really intensifying.
- 00:18:38.639 --> 00:18:40.241
- And it's really creating a divide and a sense
- 00:18:40.241 --> 00:18:42.176
- In the conservative movement i don't think
- 00:18:42.176 --> 00:18:43.678
- I'd even classify them as conservative any longer.
- 00:18:43.678 --> 00:18:46.514
- They seem to be going all the way.
- 00:18:46.514 --> 00:18:47.748
- The pendulum has swung
- 00:18:47.748 --> 00:18:48.749
- To the left, perhaps even tucker
- 00:18:48.749 --> 00:18:50.117
- Is praising socialism now and islam.
- 00:18:50.117 --> 00:18:52.587
- But what do you make of this?
- 00:18:52.587 --> 00:18:54.055
- I mean, i think it's mass confusion, right?
- 00:18:54.055 --> 00:18:56.290
- You know, i don't know.
- 00:18:56.290 --> 00:18:57.625
- Something happened after charlie died.
- 00:18:57.625 --> 00:18:59.694
- You know, something happened that shifted a lot of things
- 00:18:59.694 --> 00:19:02.163
- In this israel conversation ramped up after that.
- 00:19:02.163 --> 00:19:04.765
- Right.
- 00:19:04.765 --> 00:19:05.766
- You go back to october 7th and what happened
- 00:19:05.766 --> 00:19:07.268
- There, that immediate reaction to october 7th
- 00:19:07.268 --> 00:19:09.370
- That was not outright condemnation
- 00:19:09.370 --> 00:19:11.439
- Among everyone, showed me that we were in trouble. yes.
- 00:19:11.439 --> 00:19:14.408
- And i think for a long time this antisemitism
- 00:19:14.408 --> 00:19:16.477
- Was only on the left, really. right.
- 00:19:16.477 --> 00:19:18.279
- And now the right is being compromised, portions
- 00:19:18.279 --> 00:19:21.816
- Of the right by it.
- 00:19:21.816 --> 00:19:22.883
- And here's the thing that's most sad about this.
- 00:19:22.883 --> 00:19:25.586
- A lot of christians are falling into these traps
- 00:19:25.586 --> 00:19:27.722
- And they're not understanding.
- 00:19:27.722 --> 00:19:29.156
- And i think this falls to our churches.
- 00:19:29.156 --> 00:19:31.092
- And then we can talk about
- 00:19:31.092 --> 00:19:32.126
- Some of the personalities that you mentioned.
- 00:19:32.126 --> 00:19:33.494
- It falls to our churches
- 00:19:33.494 --> 00:19:34.562
- Because we're allowing ourselves to be discipled
- 00:19:34.562 --> 00:19:37.265
- By candace owens and tucker carlson on these issues,
- 00:19:37.265 --> 00:19:39.934
- Because the churches have not done
- 00:19:39.934 --> 00:19:41.235
- A good enough job of explaining israel.
- 00:19:41.235 --> 00:19:43.237
- We've not done a good enough job
- 00:19:43.237 --> 00:19:44.505
- Of looking at the old testament.
- 00:19:44.505 --> 00:19:46.007
- How do you understand all of scripture, right,
- 00:19:46.007 --> 00:19:48.909
- Without understanding god's relationship
- 00:19:48.909 --> 00:19:50.811
- To the jewish people, the everlasting covenant
- 00:19:50.811 --> 00:19:52.713
- To not only the people, but the land?
- 00:19:52.713 --> 00:19:54.749
- I mean, i'm doing bible in here right now.
- 00:19:54.749 --> 00:19:56.117
- I just went through it and i don't understand
- 00:19:56.117 --> 00:19:57.952
- Everlasting, right?
- 00:19:57.952 --> 00:19:59.353
- Yeah, that that word everlasting.
- 00:19:59.353 --> 00:20:01.088
- This is not something in.
- 00:20:01.088 --> 00:20:01.956
- Regards to israel in the. exactly.
- 00:20:01.956 --> 00:20:04.125
- And both the people and the land. yeah.
- 00:20:04.125 --> 00:20:05.926
- And so the fact that people don't know that
- 00:20:05.926 --> 00:20:07.828
- And don't understand that look, i'm all for a debate.
- 00:20:07.828 --> 00:20:10.531
- Have the debate if you
- 00:20:10.531 --> 00:20:11.699
- If we are upset about what human beings who are sinful
- 00:20:11.699 --> 00:20:14.168
- Are doing in a war
- 00:20:14.168 --> 00:20:15.169
- Or we think there's something wrong,
- 00:20:15.169 --> 00:20:16.237
- Have the conversation about it
- 00:20:16.237 --> 00:20:17.772
- That's different from saying things like,
- 00:20:17.772 --> 00:20:20.341
- You know, this israel
- 00:20:20.341 --> 00:20:21.509
- Isn't the same as the israel from the bible.
- 00:20:21.509 --> 00:20:22.943
- The jews are at the same.
- 00:20:22.943 --> 00:20:24.145
- I mean, the insane things that are being said with no evidence.
- 00:20:24.145 --> 00:20:26.647
- And so they are in a position now of being like little popes
- 00:20:26.647 --> 00:20:30.818
- That are discipling people.
- 00:20:30.818 --> 00:20:32.620
- Into little fiefdoms.
- 00:20:32.620 --> 00:20:33.788
- Yes, they're into these
- 00:20:33.788 --> 00:20:34.989
- Into these horrible ideologies that are not based on fact.
- 00:20:34.989 --> 00:20:37.658
- Yeah, it's terrible.
- 00:20:37.658 --> 00:20:38.726
- We have a window right now, and we need to step in
- 00:20:38.726 --> 00:20:41.162
- And make sure that people have
- 00:20:41.162 --> 00:20:42.530
- The correct, especially young people. yes.
- 00:20:42.530 --> 00:20:44.198
- Information really well said as always.
- 00:20:44.198 --> 00:20:46.300
- Hey, tell us about investigating
- 00:20:46.300 --> 00:20:47.635
- The supernatural angels and demons
- 00:20:47.635 --> 00:20:49.537
- To big hit by the way blockbuster documentary for cbn.
- 00:20:49.537 --> 00:20:52.840
- Incredible.
- 00:20:53.174 --> 00:20:54.108
- Yeah you know if people want to watch it
- 00:20:54.108 --> 00:20:55.209
- They can go to cbn.com forward slash supernatural.
- 00:20:55.209 --> 00:20:58.112
- But we went around the country looking at individual stories
- 00:20:58.112 --> 00:21:00.948
- Of what people claimed to be interacting
- 00:21:00.948 --> 00:21:02.883
- With angels or demons.
- 00:21:02.883 --> 00:21:04.518
- We have psychologists, psychiatrists
- 00:21:04.518 --> 00:21:06.721
- And people, psychotherapists, people
- 00:21:06.721 --> 00:21:08.589
- In the sciences who have seen that,
- 00:21:08.589 --> 00:21:10.725
- Hey, there's something more going on here.
- 00:21:10.725 --> 00:21:12.660
- And our goal wasn't to tell people what to think.
- 00:21:12.660 --> 00:21:14.462
- We present the stories and we have reenactments.
- 00:21:14.462 --> 00:21:16.831
- We show the stories and we allow you to see.
- 00:21:16.831 --> 00:21:19.300
- I mean, we're living in a world right now
- 00:21:19.300 --> 00:21:21.102
- Where people are looking for answers,
- 00:21:21.102 --> 00:21:22.770
- And you cannot get those answers without understanding
- 00:21:22.770 --> 00:21:24.872
- The spiritual realm, as i was saying, and how it pours over.
- 00:21:24.872 --> 00:21:27.007
- So we we tackle that in the film.
- 00:21:27.007 --> 00:21:29.043
- Yeah.
- 00:21:29.043 --> 00:21:29.877
- And you and i were talking off camera,
- 00:21:29.877 --> 00:21:31.512
- Even people
- 00:21:31.512 --> 00:21:32.613
- Who aren't followers of jesus these days are saying,
- 00:21:32.613 --> 00:21:34.448
- Man, there's something more going on here.
- 00:21:34.448 --> 00:21:36.150
- This is not normal. there's something deeper here.
- 00:21:36.150 --> 00:21:39.120
- And i really think this film
- 00:21:39.120 --> 00:21:40.521
- Can be a witnessing tool for people.
- 00:21:40.521 --> 00:21:42.056
- You know, one thing about the supernatural
- 00:21:42.056 --> 00:21:43.657
- And we've we've done two of these films.
- 00:21:43.657 --> 00:21:45.159
- We have a third one on heaven and hell coming out next year.
- 00:21:45.159 --> 00:21:47.395
- Wow. you know,
- 00:21:47.395 --> 00:21:48.496
- I used to think the supernatural was something that.
- 00:21:48.496 --> 00:21:50.297
- Yeah, i believe in because i'm a christian.
- 00:21:50.297 --> 00:21:51.732
- But it was one of those things you push off to the side
- 00:21:51.732 --> 00:21:53.534
- Because it's not logical, like logic is what wins people.
- 00:21:53.534 --> 00:21:56.404
- And that's true. logic does win people.
- 00:21:56.404 --> 00:21:57.972
- But what i'm realizing is that
- 00:21:57.972 --> 00:21:59.273
- This supernatural is actually an apologetics tool.
- 00:21:59.273 --> 00:22:02.576
- If you can prove that miracles are still happening,
- 00:22:02.576 --> 00:22:04.812
- Which we did in our first film,
- 00:22:04.812 --> 00:22:06.347
- If you can prove that angels and demons are real,
- 00:22:06.347 --> 00:22:08.849
- Well then the question if you're a secularist is,
- 00:22:08.849 --> 00:22:10.618
- Well then where is that all coming from?
- 00:22:10.618 --> 00:22:12.353
- And it opens up this doorway,
- 00:22:12.353 --> 00:22:14.655
- Pointing people right back to the lord.
- 00:22:14.655 --> 00:22:16.123
- Really great stuff.
- 00:22:16.123 --> 00:22:16.957
- And i don't think it's
- 00:22:16.957 --> 00:22:17.792
- A coincidence that you are hosting
- 00:22:17.792 --> 00:22:19.527
- These documentaries, my friend
- 00:22:19.527 --> 00:22:20.861

- And up next a prayer for our nation
- 00:22:30.738 --> 00:22:33.240
- In these perilous times.
- 00:22:33.240 --> 00:22:34.809
- My final thoughts stick around.
- 00:22:34.809 --> 00:22:39.005
- My final thoughts stick around.
- 00:22:39.005 --> 00:22:42.150
- Welcome back to stakelbeck tonight, folks.
- 00:22:43.051 --> 00:22:44.953
- As we wrap up here.
- 00:22:44.953 --> 00:22:46.054
- Look, we are
- 00:22:46.054 --> 00:22:47.189
- Praying against this evil, the assassination madness
- 00:22:47.189 --> 00:22:50.292
- That's taking root in our country.
- 00:22:50.292 --> 00:22:52.127
- I think of what president trump
- 00:22:52.127 --> 00:22:53.595
- Read to america last week as part of this america reads
- 00:22:53.595 --> 00:22:57.265
- The bible movement. pretty amazing.
- 00:22:57.265 --> 00:22:58.900
- He read and all of us should pray.
- 00:22:58.900 --> 00:23:00.669
- This second chronicles chapter seven, verse 14.
- 00:23:00.669 --> 00:23:03.505
- If my people who are called by my name
- 00:23:03.505 --> 00:23:05.474
- Will humble themselves and pray and seek my face,
- 00:23:05.474 --> 00:23:08.510
- And turn from their wicked ways, then i will hear from heaven,
- 00:23:08.510 --> 00:23:12.314
- And i will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
- 00:23:12.314 --> 00:23:16.318
- Amen. much more of that.
- 00:23:16.318 --> 00:23:17.953
- We have great coverage all week.
- 00:23:17.953 --> 00:23:19.354
- Until next time, god bless you and we'll see you soon.
- 00:23:19.354 --> 00:23:19.354
