Starting point is 00:00:00 Folks, welcome to the Eric Metaxus show, sponsored by Legacy Precious Metals. There's never been a better time to invest in precious metals. Visit legacy pm.investments.com. That's legacy pm.investments.com. Did you overhear the expression, if life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Well, when Eric Metaxus was little, he had his own lemonade stand. And he sold so much lemonade, he became rich beyond his wildest dreams. Now he's able to do whatever he wants. and he's now the host of a big time radio show.
Starting point is 00:00:42 Welcome the guy who's oh so lemony sweet, Eric Matt, Texas. Hey, folks, welcome on the program. Chris Heimes, happy Memorial Day belated. Thank you, and to you as well. You know, a lot of times people, they think, oh, Eric, you went to Yale. Oh, you're really smart. I just want to confess, Yale is a very, very bad university, number one. Number two, in some ways I'm smart and in some ways I'm an idiot.
Starting point is 00:01:10 And the reason I say that is because I just want people to understand that there's so much that I don't know that I'm embarrassed when I learn it. And then I talk about it or I write a book about it and people think I knew it all the time. And I'm thinking, no, I didn't. Even the reason I'm saying this right now is Memorial Day is a perfect example of that. I'm so dumb that I didn't know till, I don't know when, a year ago that Memorial Day. was specifically only to honor those who have fallen in serving this country. I've grown up in the same world that most Americans have grown up in, which is a world of ignorance where, you know, July 4th is a day where you blow off firecrackers and eat hot dogs.
Starting point is 00:01:56 You forget what happened on July 4th. Memorial Day, oh, that's just a weekend that starts the summer, like Labor Day, just ends the summer. And to really understand, you know, I had some vague sense. that it was about, you know, honoring those who have served. But it's only very recently that I knew that Memorial Day, which is really as sacred as it gets, is a holiday to honor those who have given their lives, the ultimate sacrifice. So it really got to me this year thinking about it.
Starting point is 00:02:32 And I just wanted to say that we would not have a nation. We would not have a nation if it weren't for those who had given their lives or who'd been willing to give their lives. It's the most glorious thing. It's the most glorious thing that people would do that for this great country. My guest in this hour is going to be our friend, John Amunchuku. And he talks about how wonderful this country is, how we need to understand this is not a racist country. When people say these things, you need to push back hard. You need to push back hard because people have literally given their lives.
Starting point is 00:03:11 Patriots have bled and died for this glorious nation. So I just wanted to say that up front, that what Memorial Day is, it really just gets to me. Now that I fully appreciate what it is, and I'm embarrassed that I didn't know until fairly recently, really exactly what it was. And there are other, you know, causes out there that they want to do. you to celebrate them for a month. You know what I mean? And they're less. Oh, by the way, on this program, we utterly reject Pride Month. Pride Month is a joke, folks. If you don't reject it, what a what a preposterous offensive joke that we would have? Who decided that we would celebrate Pride Month? It's really a despicable, insulting joke. And I'm old enough now to not
Starting point is 00:04:00 care what people think if they disagree with me on that. What an absolute lie and, and, and, and, and a joke. Listen, let's be focused on some positive things. I spent a more than a weekend with my mom, my wife and daughter, my brother was there yesterday up in Connecticut. And my daughter, who will, she'll remain nameless on this program. But she, it was, who had the idea that we need to buy a grill. We need to buy a grill to take things to the next level in Connecticut. So we went out, we bought a grill, and we went to Lowe's. First went to Home Depot, then we went to Lowe's, and we bought a grill. And it was a transformative moment in my life to buy this grill and then to use the grill
Starting point is 00:04:47 yesterday and the day before. Yesterday we were grilling in the rain. It was a downpour. So we had to maneuver the patio table with the giant umbrella over the grill and have supplementary umbrellas in order to grill. But I just want to say that's what I did yesterday and over Memorial Day weekend. And did you do any grilling? We were going to grill and then yeah the weather was bad so we just ended up baking.
Starting point is 00:05:14 We did some baking. Can you hear the death rattle in my voice? I've been sick. I've got some kind of an infection. I'm like. Yeah. Maybe it was a little more of a broiling. But yeah, we actually were at the beach in New Jersey.
Starting point is 00:05:27 My wife's best friend. Her parents have a house out there and they've been very historically kind to invite us to come out there. So we bring the whole circus with us when we show up. Well, I love it. I love it that you have a traveling circus. You call it your family. That's so sweet that you call it your family. Yeah, we did we did a little claw machine at the, you know, sort of the boardwalk kind of spot. And that thing, that activity is kind of like, it's a bit like crack. You know, you just, you need that fix. You need to grab that toy with the claw. And if you don't get it, you just need to put more money in. And it's very, it's very addictive. Because I come from a family of European immigrants, you know, who do not have 25 cents to spend on trash. So I was trained from an early age that you don't ever participate in that kind of foolishness. And I and all of my family, we reject you and your foolishness, Chris Heimes.
Starting point is 00:06:20 We will never participate. No, never in a coal machine. You're missing out because we have some beautiful, we have some beautiful plush, grotesque figures. I don't even know what they are, but we won them. You know, if I believed in reintegration in another life, I'd want to come back as a kind of cool dad like you. Like, you're just laid back and you're like, you're cool. To me, I just reject it. Okay, listen.
Starting point is 00:06:44 Before, so today, in hour one, we talked to John, I'm on Chuku. John is a stinking hero, folks. He has a book out by his book, Hoodwink, please. He is just a hero. He'll be on in hour one. And hour two, we're talking to a presidential historian. I don't know what that is. but we're going to talk to one on this program.
Starting point is 00:07:03 But I've got to say a couple things, real quick, a couple things. First of all, CSI, we have freed 127 slaves. You who have participated have freed 127 slaves. If you have not yet participated, this week is the last week. We need your help. Please go to metaxis talk.com. If you have not yet participated, it's not too late. please go to metaxis talk.com.
Starting point is 00:07:31 This is very important, and I hope everyone will participate. So far, 137 of you have participated. I'm pretty sure that more than 137 people listen to this program. So I'm a little baffled. I don't know if you're having internet connectivity issues, but go to metaxis talk.com and please participate. I want to say, Chris, a couple of things. Socrates is in the city.
Starting point is 00:07:55 a lot of stuff with Socrates and City. We're doing an event in Oxford, England, July 9th through 12th. If you haven't signed up for that yet, very exciting. I will spare you the details, but I cannot believe we're going to be doing this. Socrates in the city in England this summer. I also want to say we finally posted my Socrates in the City event with Mark Helprin, which we did in Charleston a little while ago. I finally got it edited and we posted it.
Starting point is 00:08:23 he is there's nobody like mark helprin nobody i mean he is just insane and brilliant on a level that i cannot it's it's almost disturbing if you've read his books you know what i'm talking about but to get to meet him and talk to him so we just posted that and in the interview if you watch the interview he claims that john cheever gave him the that he he knew john cheever as a kid which is another crazy story. And he gave John Cheever the idea. This is what Mark Helpern claims, and he doesn't lie, that he gave John Cheever the idea for John Cheever's very famous short story. It's been anthologized a million times called The Swimmer. And in 1968, Bert Lancaster starred in a film version of The Swimmer. It was a film, right? I've never seen it, never heard about it.
Starting point is 00:09:16 yesterday I come home exhausted from Connecticut. I turn on Apple TV. Is there anything to tempt me? Here's the swimmer with Bert Lancaster. I couldn't even believe it like it existed anywhere. But somebody, you know, said, yeah, we'll throw this on. Suzanne and I watched it. It is beyond horrible. It is so horrible that it's hard to describe. Maybe in an hour two, we'll have a few minutes after John Amanchuku will have a few more minutes to talk. but I want to tell you about the awfulness of the film, The Swimmer. It was so bad. Starring Bert Lancaster, horrible.
Starting point is 00:09:54 But anyway, we'll talk more about Socrates in the city. We'll talk more about all these things when we come back. Don't forget to go to CSI. Mataxis Talk.com. You'll see the banner. We need your help. We need your help. I'll tell you the rest of the story when we come back after John Amun Chukul.

Starting point is 00:12:43 You can find out who my guest, John Amanchukwu, really is. John Amanchukwu, my friend, welcome. Thank you so much, Eric, for having me on your show. The song says, I'm so excited. I just can't hide it. I know, I know, I know, I know, I know you want one. Go to the coffee.
Starting point is 00:13:04 That's correct. The book is hoodwinked. Now, listen, there's so much, you and I've got to know each other. in case people don't know, you're a prominently featured in the film letter to the American Church. We've gotten to know each other. We knew each other before that. But you're a truth teller. And you're also extremely bold, wonderfully bold, delightfully bold. So I want your story briefly before we get into the book. The book is hoodwinked. I want to talk about that. That's why we're here. But tell my audience, just briefly, you know, where you grow up.
Starting point is 00:13:40 up how you got to be the man you are today doing what you do? I've lived primarily in Raleigh, North Carolina for the past 39 years. My mother moved us to Raleigh, North Carolina. When I was at the age of three or four, she had $100 to her name, taking care of four children. We were on welfare. We were in poverty. We lived in the shelter for nearly a year.
Starting point is 00:14:07 And just to see what God has done with my life, just coming. from the bottom is just a testament to much of what is in my book as relates to the 10 lies that Americans believe. Over the past two years, I have traveled the nation speaking out at school board meetings. My first address to a school board was in Chatham County, North Carolina. It was a young girl there that was being demonized by her teacher. Her teacher told her that believing in Jesus was tantamount to believing in a brick wall. And because of that, that young girl did not want to go back to school. And she even started to question her faith.
Starting point is 00:14:45 And when I caught wind of that, I knew that I had to do something. I'm a former Division I football player at Tennessee State. So I'm a defensive guy. And so I'm ready to pounce on the quarterback at any moment. And the quarterback that is really destroying many of our schools and our children today is really Satan because he is the author of Confirm. And confusion does not come from the Bible. That's not come from God.
Starting point is 00:15:12 It's not come from truth. But confusion comes from Satan. It is of the devil. And so I went to that school board meeting, made my address. And I didn't know that that message would go viral. And they'll land me as the number one voice speaking out nationally at school board meetings. I've been able to amass over 300 million views. I've been able to flip two school boards.
Starting point is 00:15:38 one in Pennsylvania and one in New Jersey. I've been able to strike down a transgender policy in New Jersey. I've also been able to remove dozens, I mean dozens of pornographic books all around this country. And I'm going to 12 more states to speak out this year. I've already been to 14 states in total. And so I'm on a mission. I'm on a movement. But I'm not leading a quote unquote pro black movement or simply a pro.
Starting point is 00:16:08 pro-Christian movement. I'm leading a movement that's for the betterment of all mankind. The work that I'm doing is for black children, white children, Asian children, Hispanics, Indians, Pacific Islanders, Native Americans, for everyone. And so, Eric, I'm just thankful that God has put me on
Starting point is 00:16:29 mission and allowed me to help be the hands and feet of Jesus to help out so many children nationwide. Well, I hope people who are listening remember you. They've probably seen you on social media speaking at school board meetings. And what I notice about you, John, and again, the book, brand new book is called Hoodwinked. Ten lies Americans believe in the truth that will set them free. But if people know you, they realize that you're very bold. And what's interesting to me, this has become an issue for me. As you know, I have a new book out called Religionist Christianity. What I'm talking about in that book is the religiosity that has It's a counterfeit of Christian faith. And people are very polite. They don't want conflict. And what you're doing really enrages religious people in the negative sense of religious because you're reading at school board meetings, you're reading the text of books in children's libraries.
Starting point is 00:17:25 And the text is filthy. And you're using the filthy words to make the point that this is available to your children. And people are more offended by you speaking those words. than they are by the idea that their children are being propagandized with this kind of material. So you're a bold warrior for Christ. I praise God for you. I want to talk to you, John, about your book, Hoodwinked. When did the book come out?
Starting point is 00:17:52 The book releases today on May 28th. So this is the big moment. It's the big hour. That's why I'm so excited. I just can't hide it here. You know, I'm pitching myself. over here. They got it to take a young man from utter poverty, destined for ruins. You know, I didn't have an easy childhood coming up, but he's blessed me now to author two books and
Starting point is 00:18:17 I have a kid's book coming out in August. And so I'm just thankful for all that is doing. So yes, the name of the book is Hood Winked and it releases today. So why is the title Hood Winked? All right. So the title Hood Winked is an antiquated old, fulky, term. I heard you talk about the title of your new book, Religinalist Christianity. And so you said a similar thing. And I thought the same way about my book, like, okay, the title wasn't sexy, but there's a lot of truth to the book. Hoodwink by definition means to be beyond blindfolded. It means to have a hood over your head to the point that you can't see any light. It also means to have a delusion. And a delusion seeps in when a person rejects reality, regardless of evidence,
Starting point is 00:19:14 regardless of what they see, regardless of what is factual and what is normative, this individual chooses to just believe the big lie. That is the hood. And so hoodwink is formulated to just pluck some hoods off of the heads of American people. especially as we approach the upcoming election. I deal with 10 lies in this book, and the first lie, the first hood that needs to be removed, is that America is a racist nation. I made a statement recently on social media,
Starting point is 00:19:53 and people were calling me a coon for saying it, and I didn't care. I knew that people would get angry by this statement, but I said it anyway because it's true. And truth is a train wreck. And the statement was this, that white Republicans have done more to save black babies than the end of an ACP, the National Congressional Black Caucus, and BLM combined. What did I say that for? It created a firestorm because people don't want to hear that.
Starting point is 00:20:28 They will much rather hear that, oh, yeah, the left is doing everything necessary to support the black family and welfare states and following the pattern of Lyndon B. Johnson and the great society is the best thing for black Americans because, you know, we can't make it in this nation because of racism. But when you speak truth and you tell them that white Republicans have done more for black babies than three of the most prominent leading black groups in this country, people don't want. want to hear that, but it is factual. Now, if America is a racist nation, how do we explain the border issue that we have? According to a Pew Research Center study, one in 10 black immigrants living in this nation have come here from another country to seek life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. These individuals represent 4.6 million of the overall population in America. By 2060, that number is supposed to balloon to nearly 9.5 million people. People are not fighting to get out of America. They're fighting and risking their lives to get in.
Starting point is 00:21:45 And if this nation is such a racist nation, why are so many black immigrants trying to get in? also how do you explain two presidencies of a black president Barack Hussein Obama the worst president of all time I might add well he rivals Joe Biden and it's kind of neck and neck it shifts in 2008 and in 2012
Starting point is 00:22:11 Barack Hussein Obama won his presidential elections now blacks only make up 13% of the overall population in the U.S. So in order for a black man to become present twice, it requires white support. And so when you pick these lies apart,
Starting point is 00:22:33 and even when you look at economics, if America is a racist nation, why do Asians have the highest median income in America and not whites? Why are Indians, the highest income earners, versus whites. John, hold on one second. We're going to have to go to break. Folks, I'm talking to John.
Starting point is 00:22:55 Amun Chukwu. You don't need to spell Amichu. You need to spell Hoodwink. The title of his brand new book out today. Hoodwink, we'll be right back. Hey, this is Eric Mattaxas. Hey, this is Eric Mettaxas. For years, I've told you about Nutrametics,

Starting point is 00:25:26 You have to spell Hoodwink. That's the title of his new book. It is out today. Ten lies Americans believe in the truth that will set them free. John, you were just going on one of the top lies. And it's mystifying how people believe this lie, that America is a racist nation. America is basically the least racist nation in the world, probably, because we are totally diverse as a nation. I'm thinking about other countries that are really hostile to groups that are different than that.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Japan is a very racist nation, a genuinely racist nation. If you're not Japanese, you go to Japan behind your back. They call you Guijing. They really have a culture that is racist. A lot of cultures around the world, they have racist cultures. Racism is not a bad thing. If you go to India, for example, in this country, everybody knows racism. is wrong. So the idea that this is a racist nation, it's just preposterous. You were just saying
Starting point is 00:26:26 that millions and millions of Americans voted for one of the worst presidents ever, who happens to be black, Barack Obama. So these lies, it's almost like the problem we have is people are, how do we put it, we no longer go by facts. It's become very emotional. That's at the heart of all of these lies that people believe. Yes, I agree with that. Everything is conjured up by emotions. And in particular, the left seeks to exploit the emotions and the animus to war slavery and Jim Crow that blacks have. There's a statement that I say often and it gets me in trouble, but I'm not going to stop saying it.
Starting point is 00:27:11 It's simple that blacks have become the cheap prostitutes of. the Democrat Party. They screw us and barely pay us and we keep coming back for more. There is no truer sentiment than what I just said. That is factually true. Now, in order for a person
Starting point is 00:27:34 to see America in that light and to see the Democrat Party in that light, they have to remove the hood. But there are so many blacks and minorities in this country who suffer from Stockholm syndrome. They are in love with their captors. They're in love with their abusers.
Starting point is 00:27:54 The people who seek to abuse them the most and do the most harm and danger, they love the most. In chapter two, I talk about being pro-life is only for white evangelicals. You know, that's a big lie that if you are pro-life and you are simply a white Republican evangelical, you're part of the patriarchy and you have white skin. That's a viewpoint that's pushed upon many minorities
Starting point is 00:28:22 in this country. Keep in mind, you're in New York. Governor Hockel recently came out and said that blacks in the Bronx don't even know what a computer is. And where is the outrage?
Starting point is 00:28:38 Where is the outcry? Where was Jesse Jackson when this took place? Tell me, can we find Reverend Al Sharpton? What did he have to say about it? What did the NWACP have to say? Did they mount a march in New York? Did they come out and publicly condemn her for doing so?
Starting point is 00:29:04 Of course not. And then when we consider the statements of Jesse Jackson prior to him running for the office of the presidency, In the 70s, a quote here is clear. It says, human beings cannot give or create life by themselves. It is really a gift from gone. Therefore, one does not have the right to take away through abortion, that which he does not have the ability to give. These are the statements and sentiments of Jesse Jackson prior to running his campaign
Starting point is 00:29:39 to be the president of the United States as a Democrat. He called killing a baby abortion. But when it was time for him to run for office, he sold his community out and he flipped. And so today, this notion of being pro-life and that being tantamount to a white evangelical worldview is not a white evangelical worldview. It's a biblical worldview.
Starting point is 00:30:06 And we argue so much in this nation as to when life begins, life before it becomes an organism in the womb of a mother is a concept in the mind of God first. Every life, Eric, you were a concept in the faculties of God's mind before your mother and father came together. Same for me. It's a concept. And so that concept leads to conception. God wills it to be so. And so life, life begins in God's mind and then as the mother and the father comes together.
Starting point is 00:30:47 But there are people in this country who are campaigning and spending billions of dollars to convince us that, hey, if you are black and you're trying to fight to save your own, then you are supporting a white Republican viewpoint. Keep in mind in New York, let's talk about New York. More black babies are aborted than I give them birth to. And so my wife ran a crisis pregnancy center here in Manhattan. And when I, when I, those statistics came to my attention, I was absolutely astonished. And everything you're saying, John, of course, is true that most black Americans have themselves been hoodwinked by the Democratic Party. But I think many are beginning to wake up.
Starting point is 00:31:28 We saw the rally that Trump did in the South Bronx. And I thought things had to get this bad for people just finally. to wake up that that that that that that they're seeing that you know what I have been taken I've been taken for granted um folks I'm talking to John Amichuku will be right back his brand new book please get a copy it's called hoodwinked it's important uh that we uh know who is leading the charge against the madness in this country John Amun Chukwu is at the head of the pack the book is Hoodwinked will be right back welcome back I'm talking to John Amunuchu you do not need to spell Ammanchu. You do need to spell hoodwinked, much easier. That's the title of his brand new book,
Starting point is 00:32:30 Hood Winked. John, let's keep going. You've been a brave voice for truth. And what I love about you in particular is how you don't mind controversy. You speak the truth. You know it's going to be controversial, but you're inspiring many, many others myself among them to speak the bold truth, to speak the controversial truth, because it is really spiritual warfare. When we speak the truth, something happens in the spiritual realm. There's power when we speak the truth, when we're not cowed by what people think. This is so true.
Starting point is 00:33:05 And, you know, we were just talking about the statistics of blacks and how they're now beginning to, you know, see the light and remove the hood. And we're even seeing this take place in the current election. President Trump received nearly 9% of the black vote in 20. But he's currently trending about 22% in 2024. And so I liken that to the fact that hoods have finally been removed from the black community. But how do we get that number up to 30%, 35%, 40% and 50%.
Starting point is 00:33:44 How do we get it to the point where it was prior to 1964 in the Civil Rights Act? How do we get it there? And I think that the way to continue to move towards that direction is, number one, to keep truth and factual ideals before all people, including black Americans. Now, when it comes to supporting someone that you may not agree with because of their personality, you oftentimes have to consider policy. And oftentimes in the black community, the focus is not on policy. it's on personality and emotions. That's why Barack Obama was able to gain so much of the black vote. And President O. Biden has been able to do the same thing.
Starting point is 00:34:32 And so removing the hood and the lie around America being a racist nation and being pro-life as a white evangelical worldview is very central to the message of my new book. I even talk about Christianity being the white man's relationship. religion. You know, that's another way that they dupe blacks in America because of Western civilization and the pigmentation that Jesus had. You know, Jesus was not as white as you, Eric, or as black as me. He was Jewish, you know. But Western civilization gave him a depiction of something that he wasn't. He wasn't a white man. But at the end of the day, regardless of his skin tone and pigmentation and color, if he was blue, canary yellow, if he was yellow, turquoise, magenta, I would serve him because it wasn't his pigmentation that redeemed me.
Starting point is 00:35:27 It was his blood. And so we are told in this country to focus on external factors rather than the underlying message of a thing. And that's where the manipulation enters in. I even talk about the fact that disagreement today equals hate. And it means that we can no longer talk. we don't have the right to not be offended. Let me say that again. We do not have the right to not be offended.
Starting point is 00:36:01 If you are a Christian, if you've been brought to the foot of Calvary, you know Christ as your personal savior. You know that the gospel cut you before it consoled you. You know that the truth of God's word got into your mess. Maybe you were on your way back to a premise. mischievous relationship that day. Maybe you were on your way back to do drugs. Maybe you were on your way to commit a crime. But somewhere along the way, after hearing the truth,
Starting point is 00:36:32 you felt that train wreck and something cut you and reminded you of error. Truth cuts. And it's decided today because of these delusions and people having hoods over their head, people are resistant to differing viewpoints. Oftentimes talk about the false triune idol of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Now, I call it a false triune idol because it mimics the Trinity. And the Trinity, we have Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. God longs for private worship. And from that private worship, it extends out into corporate worship. But when it comes to the false triune idol of DEI, they can care less about private worship. They want you to publicly bow. It's like
Starting point is 00:37:21 King Nebuchadnezzar setting up his golden statue. And if you do not bow on live television, then they're going to cancel you and de-platform you. In this book, I even talk about the fact that I know all too well
Starting point is 00:37:37 that if you are anti- pornography, then you're labeled as a book banner. I have this book right here. It's called Let's Talk About it. Eric, I can't open this book and show your audience what's in it. I can't do it. You know, because we would get flagged.
Starting point is 00:37:55 They would take this video and this segment offline. This book right here shows children how to insert objects into their body parts below their navel. Okay. So this is why you're a hero. This is why everybody listening to this program needs to know you, John Amun Chukwu and get your book Hoodwink, because you have gone in front of school boards. You take books like that, which is pornography, filth, propaganda, and you say this is in your children's library. Taxpayer dollars are paying for this filth. And it's really worse than filth because it's a kind of propaganda.
Starting point is 00:38:40 It's designed to mess with children's minds. It's not just, oh, it's there and it will mess with their minds. It's basically designed to infiltrate their natural defenses, their sense of shame and innocence. It's evil. You go to school boards. You talk about this. You read passages from this evil propaganda. And they attack you like you are the problem.
Starting point is 00:39:06 It's absolutely amazing. Amazing. Now, John, I want to talk to you about this. We just have seconds left. But then we have another segment. You have been doing this. You're training people to do this around the country. If Christians will step up, you don't need to be a Christian, actually.
Starting point is 00:39:20 You just need to be a patriotic American, a decent human being. If you'll step up and do what John is doing a little bit, it will change the world. It will certainly change the country. We'll change your community. So, folks, I want to encourage you to get to know John. Amun Chukwu is the way to say it, spelling it. That's another story, John Amanchukwu. But the book we're talking about, this is all in there.
Starting point is 00:39:42 It is called Hood Winked. we'll be back to talk with John Amundchuku, the author of Hood Winked. Don't go away. Welcome back talking to John Amichuku. Folks, in the book, Hood Winked. Actually, John, you say this. You say we must be political. I've been saying this a lot.
Starting point is 00:40:29 I wrote the book, Letter to the American Church. You're in the film, Letter to the American Church. The idea that Christians are not supposed to be political is utter insanity. But a lot of people are saying this, that we're supposed to stay out of these political debates, cultural debates, what do you say? Well, when Elijah, by the instructions of God, went into the court of King Ahab and told him to his face that there will be no more due nor reign until I say so. What was that? Was that not political? Was that not a prophet of God, a man called and destined by God, going into the political spear and turning it upside down, or better yet, right side up, as Paul did.
Starting point is 00:41:21 And so, yes, we are called as the church to be political. When you ever hear a pastor say we're not called to be political and we just need to simply just preach that the gospel and the gospel is enough, you are listening to a sissy. Simply put, you're listening to a coward. Revelation is 21, verse 8 gives eight reasons why people will be thrown into the lake of fire. Number one is for being a coward. And cowardice is not a fruit of the spirit. And so I'm raising up nationally through a program called Cyclone 400. It's a plan on how to raise up 400 warriors to go to school board meetings and to defend our children,
Starting point is 00:42:10 to reclaim our classrooms and to reclaim our schools and our communities. If you would like to hear more about Cyclone 400, you can go to I Know God.us. Subscribe and you will receive this battle plan to do so. Also have a toolkit. It's about 112 pages that you can go and download as well. It's all free. I want to give you the resources to arm you to make America better. Now, this program is a vision that God gave me and the tool to realign America.
Starting point is 00:42:48 You know, I don't get my talking points from the RNC nor the DNC. I get my talking points from the B-I-B-L-E. And so I'm a biblical man founded in Scripture. Everything that I do, I point it back to the Word of God. God calls us to occupy until he comes. And we don't want to be the Christian who ultimately goes to hell for being a coward or to hear God say, depart from me, you worker of iniquity. I never knew you. We must occupy.
Starting point is 00:43:22 We must labor. And this program is a tool to reclaim our schools. Go sign up. Go get a copy of hoodwink. If you want to pluck some hoods off this year, if you want to make sure that people don't remain in the dark and that they're no longer beyond. blindfolded. If you want to ensure that these delusions that have crept into society like transgenderism, the delusion that a man can become a woman and a woman can become a man, the delusion that a man can get pregnant. Eric, we've gone to the point in this country where we see men with beer guts and we're labeling
Starting point is 00:44:01 them in the same category as a woman who can bring forth a child. No, don't confuse a beer gut with the man's ability to be able to bring forth a baby. Reality. says, if you don't have a uterus, you cannot bring forth a child. But because of the hood, because of the strong delusion that Paul tells us in Thessalonians that God will sin. He will send the strong delusion so that people will believe lies. And that's where we are. My guest has been John Amman Chukwu. John, I love you. I respect you. I admire you. I'm proud of you. Proud to call you friend. The book is Hoodwinked. Folks get a copy of Hoodwinked. John, I'm Manchuku. We will have you back to continue the conversation. God bless you, my friend.
Starting point is 00:44:48 Thank you so much. God bless you.
