Starting point is 00:03:13 I didn't do it. I never did that dance. Yeah. I think I tried a couple times. I was like, I hate this dance. I'm not doing it. But it does not leave your head. You're absolutely right about that.
Starting point is 00:03:25 So lots of work. I think they're almost done out there. And we're all ready for people to show up. You still have time to register. You still can walk in. If you don't register, you still can walk in and be a part. And a few seats left for breakfast. So that's good.
Starting point is 00:03:45 And I think that's it. Perfect. Yeah. But you want to do your thing and then we'll get into it. Absolutely. Okay. So we are live on Facebook today. We got a good amount of you guys watching.
Starting point is 00:03:57 So if you want to hop over to Rumble, I'm going to have Talia drop the link for you guys. But yeah, let us know who's watching. Let us know where you're watching from.

You are definitely not watching on YouTube today because they have still banned us.
Starting point is 00:04:46 And it's probably going to be off tonight at 1159. So, of course, they're going to make sure that we can't go live today because they're so silly and we just don't love them at all. So YouTube, you can subscribe. You can still go to our channel. We're just not live there. So if you want to listen later on, everything's still available. It's just the live they have removed because they don't trust us and they don't trust our words. So they don't love the truth. Well, um, censorship. We're exposing, we're exposing big Mike.
Starting point is 00:05:16 Oh gosh. We can say that cause we're not on YouTube. We are on Facebook though. There's still a chance. Facebook did us too. I'm in trouble with Facebook right now. Yeah. Big Mike. So silly. It's so silly. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:30 I'll not listen. Like, how did they even know who we were talking about? Did we make the connection? We were not trying to hide that one at all. No, not even a little bit. And the thing is, is like, you know you know for me we have more people watch the replay than watch the live right so they can go pound sand i mean facebook does nothing for me anyway right so i don't really worry about that if my numbers are way way higher um on the different
Starting point is 00:05:58 platforms that are other than youtube and facebook so i use them like the whores that they are, but outside of that, they are, I can't stand them. Um, so I use them and then I, I know I ain't going to get very much from them. I don't really care. Exactly. We don't put our eggs in one basket and that's for sure. It does not bother me. Not here. So yeah, we we got Black Robe up and going, of course. We've got our audio podcast as well. And so that's always available later on. We are not live on that. But these are the options for you guys.

Well, if you're 12 hours away, you have plenty of time. You will be here at 3 p.m. No, 3 a.m. If you're 24 hours away, you could still make it
Starting point is 00:08:22 in time. I think that would be... Oh my word. What an adventure that would be. What a story. They'll be falling asleep in the first session. You can take a little nap when you get here and then you'll be strong for Friday. Right into it. Right into it. All right.

And then Saturday, you know what will be happening then and you will not want to miss it. It is going to be it's going to be a good old time.
Starting point is 00:09:02 So that is everything for today. So I'm coming back to you, Hope. And we will be excited for you guys to join us. We've got a lot of people that have registered. And I'm so excited to see all you guys back here. It's just something that's so special when you are with a bunch of women. Like, it's just different. It's, I don't know, it's just exciting.
Starting point is 00:09:24 It's true. I do. I love it. don't know it's just exciting and um it's true i do i love it every year super sweet and special and it's a great it's so crazy because uh the i've seen um friendships and family relationships renewed yeah yeah um from these conferences, healings and restoration of just like, like their minds being renewed. People like no longer walking in anxiousness and anxiety and, and depression. People's dreams and, and hopes coming to pass god downloading like what their futures will be as far as gifts and callings i mean there's just so many great things but i think there's something sweet about just getting together with other women and then creating new relationships or deeper relationships with people because there's something about iron sharpening iron and then taking what you know and learn
Starting point is 00:10:28 and then going to the next level. Yep. And then everybody doing it in one accord. You know, Jeff says this from the stage all the time. He's like, you know, if you want to have friendships, if you want to be involved and you're sitting there saying like, oh, I wish I had more friends. Well, show up at these things.
Starting point is 00:10:44 Like this is a perfect time to show up and meet somebody new and put yourself out there. And at some point you get sick and tired of being sick and tired. So at some point you've got to start showing up at these things. And then you'll, it's kind of like working out. Like you're like, Oh, it's not like I've got to have to meet new friends. And it pushes me outside of my comfort zone. But once you do it, you're like, I'm so glad like your whole life could be different this year going. If you come this week, you're literally knowing that your whole life could be different. You could be leaving things alone, leaving it at the altar that you'd never wanted to like pick up in the first place, get healings. You know, some people are coming in believing for a baby and this year they've received their miracle. Like
Starting point is 00:11:21 so many amazing things happen when you get out of your own way and, you know, stop like making excuses. It's so true. And it's a great opportunity to, if you're trying to win somebody to the Lord, but they would never really be that enthusiastic about going to a regular church service. This is super simple. There's low expectation about, you know, because it's not so church. I mean, it is churchy, but it's not. It is. It's just different. You know, it's not so churchy.
Starting point is 00:11:54 Yeah. Or as intimidating as to walk into like a church with a thousand people. Like, yes, it will feel like women. It's just, it is. It's different. So, man, if you've got somebody in your heart that you haven't invited yet, um, you can go on our Facebook page and there's an invite on there and you can just save that little invite and text it to a friend, um, call them, whatever you do. I text everybody, but you can always make a phone call as well. We have a nice little voice message,
Starting point is 00:12:19 invite them. And you never know. I mean, the worst thing they're going to do is say no. So just invite them. Yeah. What does it matter? Right. Who cares about a no? I know. But some people do. But who cares? That's the worst thing that's going to happen is they'll be like, oh, no, I'm busy.
Starting point is 00:12:31 Sorry. And no's don't matter. Yeah. Like, well, like Sarah and I both have done sales and Sarah's still doing sales. I mean, I do sales. I just sell Jesus now solely. Yeah, true. But like, it's one of the things we always say is how many no's do you get to your yes? I mean, you're going to have to get like for every no, I'm like, I'm one step closer to the
Starting point is 00:12:50 yeah. Right. So for me, it never, I got to hear that no to get to the yes. You cannot be, you can't be devastated or disappointed because that's life. Yeah. Yep. Doesn't really matter. Amen. Does anybody else have anything they want to say about it? disappointed because that's life yeah yeah doesn't really matter amen yeah does anybody else have anything they wouldn't want to say about it nope yeah about the conference nope just ready sarah will be doing door prizes yeah with theresa so i got my nails did and my hair did. My shrine. My shrine. My shrine. So if for nothing else, just come to see me. Oh my gosh, the door prizes are.
Starting point is 00:13:30 Not the door prizes. Not the door prizes. Sarah. Just get your picture with me when you win a door prize. Yeah, that's true. You will. You do. You'll definitely get a photo.
Starting point is 00:13:37 But those door prizes are good. Oh yeah. I'm excited. Oh yeah. They're good. I wonder what I'll win this time. I've already thought that. Whatever thing that you go, oh, I want that.
Starting point is 00:13:50 Right. Probably the one you win. Yep. Probably. Yep. They're good, though. Those store prices are really good. It's exciting.
Starting point is 00:13:57 I know. There's one thing that I really want. I can't win it. Oh, yeah. I really want it. I would never probably use it, but I really want it. Oh, yeah. I really want it. I would never probably use it, but I really want it. Oh, interesting. Okay.
Starting point is 00:14:08 Now my mind's spinning. Once you see it, you'll be like, oh, yeah, that's it right there. Okay. I know why she wants it, but she's never going to use it. That's true. So let's go to our first question, people. Do it. Which is a very interesting question.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Do you think it's wrong to buy knockoff designer brands? I am personally an artist, so I can see why another artist designer would be upset if someone knocked off their design. But some of these bags and shoes are so pricey. Okay. Why are you guys laughing? Go ahead, Talia. Talia, is this your question? No, no.
Starting point is 00:14:50 She's drinking some soda. That's all. She was drinking soda. Tracy. You know what happens when you drink soda sometimes. Did you burp? Yeah. Aw, girl.
Starting point is 00:15:00 It's all right. A little gas never hurt nobody. Did we burp you? No, please no. Come here. Poor Tal nobody. Can we burp you? No, please don't. Come here. Poor Talia. She can't hide anything. She's trying to avoid that, like the plague.
Starting point is 00:15:13 So this is not Talia's question, so interesting. Well, it is absolutely wrong to buy designer brands for more than one reason. Who's going to buy designer brands? No, knockoffs. Oh, okay. Yeah, not designers. Designer knockoffs. I know. Knockoffs. Oh, OK. Yeah. Not designers. Designer knockoffs. I should have said that.
Starting point is 00:15:29 It is illegal. Actually. Really? Yeah. It's illegal. I'm going to jail. Yeah. That's funny.
Starting point is 00:15:44 It's illegal to buy them. OK. It's no different It's illegal to buy them. Okay. It's no different than if something's copyrighted and then you take the copyright. We're not to do that. I mean, unless you ask permission. Listen, I have used people's copyrighted stuff, but I normally ask permission to do it. And when we play songs at this church, we pay an enormous amount of money to be able to play those songs. Why would that be any different than when somebody has created or a designer has created something under their name, you didn't think of it, you didn't create it, they deserve the rights to that money.
Starting point is 00:16:19 And whether or not we can afford it or not, you know, I understand they are pricey, but either pray the money in. God will give you the desires of your heart. So if you can handle having, most of the time people want these designer brands. I know lots of people who want them because the quality is so good. Like I do have designer purses and designer shoes. Okay. And the quality, it is far superior there. I mean, there, there, there's no disputing that.
Starting point is 00:16:54 Okay. I don't just, just I don't argue that point, but I will say that a lot of times people want the designer brand name so that people look at them and go, ooh, look at them. Or I wonder if they're wealthy or that thing costs a lot of money. So how do they afford that? Okay. What's the reason why you want the bag. That's the question. And I will tell you, I always wanted, I've always wanted nice things. And there have been times the reason I wanted nice things was not for the right reasons. And then there are the times that I get the nice things is because my perspective, spiritually speaking, is correct. And that's when the nice things have come my way. If you are chasing after God and your heart's desire is his heart's desire, you will get the nice things because he who is faithful with little will be faithful with much.
Starting point is 00:17:59 But if your pride is going to get in the way, I will tell you, I have really nice watches. I have some very nice pieces of jewelry. I have some very nice designer things, clothing and shoes and purses. And not one of those things own me. And all of them I would give away like that. And like right now, I know there's certain items that the Lord is like, you're going to give those items away. And they're kind of expensive. Not kind of. They are expensive. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:18:37 It's not hurting my feelings any. I'm fine with letting it go because those things don't make me and those things don't define me. And if people see me with or without something, it doesn't matter to me. Do you know what I'm saying? Girls, do you want to give your own two cents and then I'm going to finish up with it too?
Starting point is 00:18:57 Because there's, when we, well, I'll just say this. No, go ahead. I want to hear what you guys have to say and then I'll finish what I was going to say. I think the fact that it's illegal, it kind of like puts the nail in the coffin for me. Um, I guess my thing is like, I have like a pair of shoes or sandals that are from target and they look like Tory Burch's and like, it's like, what's, I guess, what's the difference between like having, it doesn't have the name brand and other one right does right and even if like we see it all the time like hello toilet
Starting point is 00:19:31 paper does it all the time yeah so I don't care about that right do you know what I'm saying yeah well people are always copying each other but there's no copyright on those items. But if you're buying a Louis Vuitton, a Fendi, a Gucci, a what's the C? Jimmy Choo's. Yeah. Those, like I have a pair of shoes, like my girlfriend always asks me if they're Jimmy Choo's because they look so similar, but they're Guess. So when she asks you, what are those? And you say Guess?
Starting point is 00:20:14 Does she just keep asking? She forgets all the time because she knows High End. She knows all the High End stuff. And actually she she wears high-end. But she's probably one of the most, one of the biggest givers I've ever seen. Like, there's nothing that she owns or nothing that she has. I mean, she has pretty much anything. Her and her husband work very, very hard.
Starting point is 00:20:41 But they have private jet. They have the whole nine. They, they, they, they, they want for nothing, but they would give away everything. And there's the difference. And that's one of the reasons why she has what she has. Nothing holds. And she, she holds onto nothing.
Starting point is 00:21:00 So, but she asked me that all the time. I'm like, oh no, they're guests. And she's like, man, they look like them. Every single time, it always slips her mind. But I mean, is guests wrong for doing that? I didn't even know those look like that designers. So, but there's like, there are certain rules to copyrights. And one of the rules was as long as it's changed at least 10%. Even like if you architecturally draw a home or a building or something like that. Another designer or architect can take that same floor plan, but they have to
Starting point is 00:21:39 change it a certain percentage in order for it to not break the copyright laws. I'm not opposed to that. That's the law. That's the rules. I mean, that's the way it goes. But when we start buying knockoffs of a Louis or a Dooney Burke or, you know, Chanel or whatever, then we're wrong because we are breaking the law. And people will say the excuse, well, so is speeding. And you speed like work out
Starting point is 00:22:06 your own salvation i mean yeah for me i don't do that one of the reasons i don't do that is one of the reasons i don't buy those purses either is because you're helping criminals um i mean those those purses come from like and i know that we buy things in china and stuff like that where it's still the same thing but criminals are making those purses and they're using sex trafficking uh they're using they there are no labor laws so they have people who should not be working, making those items. I mean, for me, I'm like, I'm not going to help that. I mean, it's already bad enough.
Starting point is 00:22:51 I'm not supporting that. So I'm obviously buying something illegally. And now I'm supporting criminal activity on top of that. I'm not doing it. Now, like I was just, me and Deb were just talking about this. Like, oh, a bunch of girls were talking about this while they were decorating. And one of the things about Shein, and I don't know about it, but very affordable, right? My kids order stuff off of Shein all the time.
Starting point is 00:23:18 But you can, like, they have made it so, like, if you see something like anthropology or something like that, they have a very close or identical item to that. Right. But they don't market as that name brand, correct? Right. Or do they? No, no, no. It's called like a dupe. It's just very close.
Starting point is 00:23:37 That's what I was trying to think of. The dupe. Yeah, it's like a dupe. That's a dupe. So they don't have the name on there so that you think you're buying something. Okay, that's the same thing though. I mean, that's not,
Starting point is 00:23:46 not the same thing as illegal activity. That's just the same thing as somebody, um, changing an item enough so that it's not, but you know, you're not buying the name brand. So like, you know that going in.
Starting point is 00:24:00 So to me, it's like, it's totally different. Yeah. Usually the coloring is a little bit off or something or something on is a little bit different. That 10 percent probably rule. It's probably what they do. So they don't get sued all the time or they would.
Starting point is 00:24:13 Yeah, exactly. Well, even Amazon has stuff like that, like skims, like their shirts. It's Kim Kardashian's line. Oh, OK. There are shirts on Amazon that are like about the same texture and the same color. It's just a little bit different. Oh, okay. There are shirts on Amazon that are about the same texture and the same color. It's just a little bit different. Oh, interesting.
Starting point is 00:24:30 But it's cheaper. Yeah, well, the thing is, and this is one of the things that I was saying to the girls. I was saying, for me, everybody wants to always be wearing the most recent fashions or trends or stuff like that um sarah's like not me man but most of the time like a lot of people do but the thing is is what's what keeps them from doing it is like i ain't paying that for that like for it to be out a season in less than a year not doing doing it. Whereas Shein, or is it Shein or Shein?
Starting point is 00:25:06 Shein. I don't know. Shein. Who cares? Like, you can buy all that stuff. I think it was Deb that showed me. Probably. Or no, it was Katie.
Starting point is 00:25:14 Okay. Showed me what was on the website. Like, it's so cheap. It really is. So cheap. I couldn't get over it. Yeah. Because I've never really gone on the, I've never really looked at it.
Starting point is 00:25:24 And I guess there's a, starts with a T or something like that? Teemu. Teemu's like Shein, right? I don't know. I ordered from something and I was like, I'm getting such a great deal. And I got like seven outfits and it was like $30. And I was like, this is awesome. And it never came.
Starting point is 00:25:43 So it's not a great deal. Because they scammed me. Is that Timu? No, it wasn't Timu. I'm trying to remember. I think it was pretending to be something chic. It was. Oh, chic-wesh.
Starting point is 00:25:58 Maybe. I've tried that too. Anyway, I was even like emailing back and forth. I waited a month and like watched the shipping. Yeah. Like watched it go acrossing back and forth. I waited a month and like watched the shipping. Yeah. Like watched it go across the ocean and everything. And then they were like, it's been delivered. And I'm like, no, it hasn't.
Starting point is 00:26:14 Like with Sheen, there's a certain like I buy everything off of there. Like everything that I've gotten has been, it's been exactly what I thought I was getting. But it's because I checked the reviews and then I I'm very like particular with what I buy off of there and usually if you click on an item underneath it there's like five of the same one so you have to make sure you're actually getting the process the actual item there was some issues with um toxic chemicals in these clothing as well. Yeah, it was like high levels of sheen, Zafl and Ali Express. How do you have high levels of lead in your clothing? It led PFAs and something else that I can't say. So they were they were kind of in the media a
Starting point is 00:27:01 little bit for that as well. I don't know but it was a lot it was like really really high one of their trench coats was insanely high it was a kid's trench coat um but yeah so that's i mean you know you get what you mean and then i get metal super cheap but you're gonna die if you wear it. Why would you have metal in your clothing? I think there was like a dye, the dye pigments or something that they were using that was... They're just trying to depopulate us. It's probably cheap. Yeah, it's probably a cheaper way to do whatever they're trying to do. To kill us?
Starting point is 00:27:40 To kill us. A cheaper way to kill us? Is that what you're talking about? I don't know, I guess. Or make the clothing. Um, yeah. So, you know, then there's that. That's interesting. It is. So no, buying designer is not good and it is expensive,
Starting point is 00:28:01 but designer knockoffs are not good, but designer, designer knockoffs. Yeah. Designer knockoffs are not good. But designer is okay. Designer knockoffs. Yeah. Designer knockoffs. Yeah. Yeah. Designer is totally fine.
Starting point is 00:28:11 Designer knockoffs. No bueno. Don't do it. I mean, if you want to go to hell, I guess go to hell. Just kidding. I don't know. I don't know. I mean, I don't know what degree,
Starting point is 00:28:25 I mean, right and right and wrong and wrong is the way, I mean, it's pretty self-explanatory, but illegals are crossing into this country like crazy. They're all going to heaven. So we're supposed to build a bigger table, not a bigger wall.
Starting point is 00:28:43 It's true. Pull up the seats so if you listen to the most common christian today i'm going to hell because i don't want a bigger table and i do want a bigger wall just depends on the perspective of the individual exactly that's my not really the bible just the perspective of the individual what did you say i said that's my pastor i don't know if you want to like no i do claim me yeah i do i did done and done i did it's pretty funny though it is funny pretty crazy um okay so all right let's cross right on into our sponsors.
Starting point is 00:29:26 We're doing those a little early today. So Laura Keller and Real Estate Appraisal Associates of Southwest Florida. Laura has been in business since 2005, and she is a Florida State residential appraiser and has been for 24 years with three locations in Lakewood Ranch, Port Charlotte, and Tampa. She can assist almost anyone anywhere, and Laura Keller and her real estate appraisal associates is one of the most trusted appraisal companies
Starting point is 00:29:47 in Southwest Florida. They have done approximately 10,000 appraisals and are approved by 300 banks, lenders, and government entities all over the United States. Our company does appraisals for just about everything from residential properties up to four units. They work with FEMA using the 50% rule, settling estates, probate situations,
Starting point is 00:30:06 inherited properties where the heir or heirs are not local and need the appraisal for their attorney, step-in basis appraisal for capital gain taxes, and they also provide assistance in selling properties. If you give her a call, tell her that you heard about her from the Hope Hotline and you will receive a $50 discount and you will not be disappointed50 discount and you will not be
Starting point is 00:30:25 disappointed. There is something good to be said about a good appraisal when you're selling and buying a home. And that is that. And then there's Hanson Automotive, who is also a good friend of ours, along with Laura Keller. I mean, they are people that I know, and that's one of the reasons why it's super easy for me to have them be, for us to sponsor them. I know both of these people. They attend our church. They're quality individuals. So you will not go wrong with Laura Keller, but Hanson's Automotive, I'm just telling you,
Starting point is 00:31:01 Nick Hanson is top notch, the best of the best. He knows what he's talking about. Literally have called him and said, hey, my car is making that noise. And he'd be like, oh, that's this. I'm like, how in the world? I know. Like, I know the sounds.
Starting point is 00:31:19 Now if I made the wrong sound, I might not have gotten the right answer. But I'm just saying. Gotta be good with your sound. But yeah, exactly. But I mean, he knows what he's talking about. He's been doing it forever. I've known him since he worked as a mechanic for another company.
Starting point is 00:31:37 And then he stepped out, took a leap of faith, did what God told him to do, started his own company, his own garage. And that he has literally, I have never seen, well, I have, when people actually do what the Lord tells them to do. Like he stepped out into this business. He knew the Lord was telling him to go out on his own because the person he was working for became sketch.
Starting point is 00:32:01 And so he's like, I can't work for this guy anymore. And the Lord told him, you're going to open up your own business. And he has, he took that leap of faith and it was a scary one, starting your own business, especially in this kind of market, as far as like, there's a lot of competition for automotive repair. And he, he has, he had a strong base. But I think anytime you start out on your own in any business, especially depending on the amount of overhead
Starting point is 00:32:30 you have to have, that's super scary. But when God's at the helm, then you are going to be successful. And he has been tremendously successful. But it's because of his character and integrity. And for that, you cannot buy that. So give him a call, and he will do you right every time.
Starting point is 00:32:48 Yep. That's that. That's that. That's good. So here's the next question, girls. And by the way, no podcast on Friday. We forgot to say that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:02 I don't want to forget about that. No podcast. Good call. So the next question, I know Pastor Tom does the political podcast, but Hope, what do you think? Do you think there's a chance Trump will win? With the election integrity in question, how do we overcome that to have a fair election? Well, I will tell you, outside of God, see, I don't think he was supposed to win the very first time. And that's one of the reasons why we'll just call her skillery. Because I don't need to be thrown off another social media thingy platform.
Starting point is 00:33:33 Because, like, we're right now, we're on Spotify. We're on Apple. They'll kick me off because they've already kicked Tom off Spotify. Yeah. Oh, yeah. And that's where our biggest numbers come from from apple and spotify i can't like we're not just like i don't just use social media like our numbers are high on those are yeah our biggest on that so i don't really want to screw myself to be honest with you
Starting point is 00:33:56 because spotify they'll just they'll nix you tom can't get back on oh yeah that was early on too they were like see ya ya. Yeah, 100%. And it was because, obviously, because of the C word, and I don't mean cancer, the other C word. And then it was also because of the election. But when Skillery was running, they underestimated the number of people who would go out and vote for him. And so what happened is the reason she didn't come out and give her concession speech and didn't concede until the next morning is because they realized they didn't have enough votes. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:47 And so they hadn't cheated enough. That's the reason why they waited with the last one and started creating the votes in the middle of the night that they learned from her that they made a big mistake. And so they had to, they had had to but that's why they shut everything down because they didn't know how many votes they needed that's why i'm not a big proponent and i know tom says to early vote and stuff like that but i believe with early voting then they know how many they have to generate how many that they fraudulently have to create
Starting point is 00:35:21 and for me i'm like why are we dead people they need to fill out ballots for but the other way is the other way is is then they stop the voting and they say they can't do all the votes you know what i'm saying there's two sides to that coin and so because of that i don't think he's wrong i just don't think that... I don't know. I will tell you, just like it was a miracle that he didn't get shot in the head and assassinated on TV.
Starting point is 00:35:55 Because if you think, the thing is, I don't know how many people watch Tom, but the crazy, you know it's an inside job when CNN has not been to any of his rallies, and that's the one they show up for. They had not been coming to any of his rallies at all. And lo and behold, all of a sudden, CNN is there.
Starting point is 00:36:15 CNN was there with Roger Stone when they went in, and CNN was there, I believe, with Giuliani. How are they knowing that something's going to get raided when it hasn't been even done? It's because it's all inside work. We are in a banana republic. People that think that our government is stellar and above board, you're living in a dream world.
Starting point is 00:36:42 I don't care what aisle you're on, what side of it you're on. Neither one of them are good, and they're all in it together for the most part. And outside of God, he will not win. That's the facts. But do I believe that he will? Yeah, I do.
Starting point is 00:37:00 I don't. A part of me, a huge part of me, believes he will win only because why did God spare his life and him not be assassinated for him not to win? That's a good point. Why? Like, outside of the, when I think about this, the minute chance of it would be to throw it in the face of the Democrats. He still won't win, but you still don't reign. I reign.
Starting point is 00:37:31 I say today in the hour that someone will no longer live. You do not. And that's maybe what the purpose behind it, or for Satan even himself, because these people are like so freaking evil that Satan is the one they worship. I mean, there is no doubt in my mind that a lot of these politicians and a lot of our Hollywood elite and even the musical artists and stuff like that, they are very demonic. And they are in it. I mean, they are Satan worshipers.
Starting point is 00:38:04 They are in it. I mean, they are Satan worshipers. They are extremely demonic. And I mean, you can, you can see how pervasive it is even in the music industry from Taylor Swift, from Sam Smith to like, I mean, there's a whole slew of them that are whipping out, like even like a,
Starting point is 00:38:21 what's her name? Lady Gaga. All of them are whipping out Satan, Satanistic concert kind of things. out like even like what's her name lady gaga all of them are whipping out satanist satanistic um concert kind of things even if it was for the like a music award show to even in their concerts it's pathetic so um i nobody's hiding things anymore no the wickedness and the evilness of people used to be like i I would never admit. I'll keep that under wraps.
Starting point is 00:38:46 Now people are like, I don't care. I don't care if people know Satan's my God. They don't care. Or whatever means they worship. There's so many satanic things that people, how they do worshiping this from like with. Different. I'm trying to think of because I was just reading up on this.
Starting point is 00:39:18 Like they'll kill like kill animals. Rituals is what I was saying. They're sat. They're rituals and sacrifices. I was saying. There you go. Rituals and sacrifices. I couldn't think of the words. But they're not slaughtering babies, okay? But they're torturing people. They're like, they're torturing animals.
Starting point is 00:39:37 There's different rituals that they do, chants and things like that. I mean, it's very frightening. And people are like, no, that's not true. You need to pull your head out of the sand. 100% is 100% is. And so, and these are not smart people. I mean, I've known people who are in the, the Holly world, Hollywood world. And they're like, they say that they literally have said, these are some of the most stupid people you've ever met in your life. They are like the biggest airheads. And they're just, they're not very, they're not brilliant people at all.
Starting point is 00:40:15 They just get paid a lot of money to pretend to be somebody other than they are. So, and other than who they are. So, but, and everybody is always striving are. So, um, but, and everybody is always striving to stay in the end game. And so they all like, if one's doing it, the other person does it. Like,
Starting point is 00:40:33 it's like Scientology. You get it around just the right people. Your brain can be brainwashed into thinking something's right when it's wrong. So very scary. I want to, what do you guys think about Trump? Because I would love to hear what you guys think. Like, what do you think his odds are? Anybody?
Starting point is 00:40:56 Anybody? You got no clue? I hope he wins, but I don't know. Like, yeah, I think the, I don't know how many laws they put in place to set like proper voting. Well, Laura Trump being the RNC chairman. Yeah. Instead of Mitt Romney's niece.
Starting point is 00:41:17 Yeah. Huge. That is huge. I mean, that's huge. They actually have gone into different states now and are changing the rules so that some of the crap that was going on before is not going to happen this time right that is happening yeah so that makes you happy it does it does play a huge part in it it does right it's not enough yet okay yeah and that's my concern is like are we doing enough we had four years to do this and like
Starting point is 00:41:42 i do feel like there's some stuff coming up i Lord Trump only got in like a year ago, right? Right, exactly. We kicked, but that was also done on purpose. So, okay, we'll relieve, we'll kick Romney's niece out. I can't remember, Rona, Rona Mc, something. I don't know what it is. Okay. So we'll remove her, but they only remove her in enough time that they look like they actually did something, but there's nothing she has enough time to really do.
Starting point is 00:42:11 Right. Do you know what I'm saying? Yes, I do. It's not like a. I know. Yeah. So I, yeah, I hope he does. But like, like we, like with COVID, like he didn't make the best decisions with COVID.
Starting point is 00:42:20 He made a lot of great decisions, but there was definitely things that didn't help us. Yeah. with COVID. He made a lot of great decisions, but there was definitely things that didn't help us. And then we abolished the amendment that was, what was it called? Roe v. Wade when Biden was in. So there's definitely things that at the end of the day, God is on the throne. At the end of the day, we have the power to do what we need to do and nothing can stop that. But I still would love for Trump to get in and maybe like inflation to go down a little bit or like our grocery bills to go down a little bit, like things like that. You know one of the reasons
Starting point is 00:42:50 why I would love for him to win though? And one of the reasons I would really love for him to win is because it's right. He legitimately won. So to like to win and not be given that that reward of like you won like you you should you should win you should win no so like for me it's like it's not it's not right not to allow that to happen so for me i'm like as a human I just sit there and go, if it was me, I'd be like, I worked really hard to win. So I should be able to take that position.
Starting point is 00:43:33 That's one of the things. Righteously, it's not right. Absolutely. That's like first things first. Absolutely. If you win, you should win. So for me, I'm like, as a person, I just sit there and go, that's not cool for him.
Starting point is 00:43:45 It's not. Because the effort and the work that that man has put in to get to win three times and to have it not be given to him two times, not cool.
Starting point is 00:43:57 We should be able to vote for something and know that our vote counts. Like, that's it. And if we lose, we lose. You know what I mean? If more people vote
Starting point is 00:44:04 for another person, then that's what it is the only difference is when we lose we're like okay we lost and it's fine when the other side yeah exactly then there's unrest in the streets and riots and it's like what the heck right it doesn't make any sense to me. And I also don't see, it's a DEI thing. Like, is that the best that you could do? And who's the president right now, by the way? Because is it still Joe Biden? Like, what's happening? Where is he?
Starting point is 00:44:38 I don't know. He was on some, he was on some nut hill the other night. Like, we're the laughing stock of the world right now. Girl, 100%. That's why when Trump was in office, there was no wars. The economy was doing great. There was all these benefits. So I don't even understand what's going on in people's minds
Starting point is 00:45:00 when they're like, yes, Kamala. I just saw a video. I think I took it off of Adalas or Magalas, one of their pages. Where this, Benny, what's his name? Benny Johnson. Benny Johnson's on the street
Starting point is 00:45:14 and he's interviewing people. Tom had it on his podcast last night. What do you think? Trump or Kamala? And he's like, Kamala, definitely. And then they're like, well, what's the best policy? What do you really like about her? And he was like, actually, I don't know. And then he looks at the screen and they're like, well, what, you know, what is what's your best policy? You know, what do you really like about her?
Starting point is 00:45:25 And he was like, actually, I don't know. And then he looks at the screen and he's like, don't use this. Don't use this video. Tom had that on. Tom had it on the podcast. Oh, my gosh. Like what? Is it because she's a woman?
Starting point is 00:45:39 Well, one of them did say that. She's a woman. I don't think a woman should be given the nuclear codes, especially a middle-aged woman. Listen, don't give me the nuclear codes. I'm going to tell you right now. Somebody makes me mad, oh, that's it. This country's going down.
Starting point is 00:45:55 Well, here's the thing. I think of Margaret Thatcher. And that's before you guys' time for the most part. But I'm just telling you, Margaret Thatcher like she was and that's before you guys's time for the most part but I'm just telling you Margaret Thatcher was phenomenal phenomenal and like there hasn't been anybody as good to her as her she and Reagan man they were just such a united front on so many things, such great allies. But she was, that woman was smart. And calm.
Starting point is 00:46:32 Very much so. And she made methodical, responsible decisions. That's one of the great things about men. And that's the difference between men and women. That's what makes us such great moms. The differences that we have. Men are not good moms. They're great dads.
Starting point is 00:46:59 Correct. But men, and I'm not opposed to women being president. I'm not. I'm a little bit like Sarah in this, because if you can be like a Margaret Thatcher and there give them a situation, whether they are a family member of the person that you're talking about or whatever, nine times out of ten, a man removes himself emotionally from the situation and can look at it from a perspective of these are the facts. Now, which facts are correct? Which ones need to be fixed or wrong? And how do we come to a good ends to meet the means?
Starting point is 00:47:57 Right? Yep. With the least amount of casualties, hurt feelings, things like that. Most men are very, very good at that. Most women, not so much. It's just the facts. And so when you have to make strategic decisions based on no emotion whatsoever, you got to go with the man almost every flipping time.
Starting point is 00:48:24 It's just the way it is. We were made that way. And that's okay. Yeah. I mean, it's totally okay. Right. I think, I mean, I really don't want a man doing a woman's job. Right.
Starting point is 00:48:36 Same. And it's not because I don't think some men can't do it. They can, but for the most part, they can't. But that's okay because that's why god made us like he did and that's why he made us when we become together we're strong unit like you we are unstoppable united yeah but now i i do believe on rare occasions like i believe on rare occasions, like I believe on rare occasions, there are great women that can be police officers. Very rare.
Starting point is 00:49:10 Not like it's one out of a thousand. It's very rare. And I feel the same way about a president, a woman being a president. I mean, do I think it can happen? Yeah. She ain't it, being a president. I just, I mean, I do. I think it can happen. Yeah. She ain't it though. Nope. Unless every, don't be offended,
Starting point is 00:49:31 but unless every ally thinks she's like, wants to go to bed with her, that's the only way we're ever going to get anything accomplished. Because she will do it. How does she get where she is now? I know that's my point. I was like researching. I'm like, I just want to know,
Starting point is 00:49:44 what is she done? Like, what's her background? What's her education? She's dumb as a box of rocks. Literally nothing. Nothing. I know. Nothing.
Starting point is 00:49:52 She spread her legs to get to the top. She was, what, an attorney general for like a half a second and a junior, not even an actual senator, a junior senator. And now you're going to be the president of the United States. Of America. Like one of the greatest superpowers in the world. Obama was a junior senator you and now you're going to be the president of the united states like one of the greatest powers in the world obama was a junior senator that's true the same thing and in vance is too but vance at least like obama was a community organizer okay that's what he did before he became a senator a junior senator uh vance has been an attorney he's smart as crap he's extremely um well he's made himself he's made himself wealthy by his hard work okay he
Starting point is 00:50:36 didn't get it from somebody else and so for me it's like A lot of people will say, well, J.D. Vance is no different. Okay, but he is educated. He's smart. And Kamala, she slept her way all the way up to the top. Everybody says it. The men that she slept with say it. They say she's stupid. They don't have very many nice things.
Starting point is 00:51:03 I listen to her speeches and i'm stupider after the end at the end of it oh yeah she's so dumb i think i just lost brain cells after listening to her yeah well all of them all of them are dumb and not even even obama's stupid he's not smart he's not even they all say he's a great orator i don't agree with that i mean if he if he when he loses his prompts, or whatever, prompters, whenever he doesn't have one, he can't speak.
Starting point is 00:51:33 He has to have a speech writer. He gave a speech last night. Oh, I know, and he was reading it. And it was full of lies. Of course. It was full of lies. I mean, the things that are going on outside of that DNC convention is disgusting. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:51 It's disgusting. It makes me so mad. Yeah. Celebrating people being able to have abortions outside of it, like giving free abortions away. Free abortions, yep. Taking human life and celebrating it. It's literally sacrifice. They are doing that.
Starting point is 00:52:08 They're wicked and evil. Right. Who does that? Who does that? And then celebrates it. Yes. And thinks it's, ugh. And it is.
Starting point is 00:52:17 It's the world. It's like a common thing. But like to like, it's just so sad. It really is. It's very sad. Like people, like there's, that's like to like, it's just so sad. It really is. It's very sad. Like people like there's that's like a person, like a woman that's going there and like proud to do that. Like it's just it shows a level of like demonic evilness that you have to be like this. This is my right.
Starting point is 00:52:37 Like it's your baby. Like, I don't know. I just can't separate it. I don't understand. I never will. It just makes me so sad because it's a human being and listen i know that people have made mistakes and they've had abortions and things and they and you know god's mercy absolutely his forgiveness right okay that's not what we're talking about here we're talking about people who are purposed to make sure. Yeah. Right. Right.
Starting point is 00:53:05 To celebrate it. It's like most people that I know that didn't use it as a contraceptive form of contraceptive for themselves. And even some of those probably now have regret. Absolutely. A hundred percent. They just didn't at that time. Right.
Starting point is 00:53:23 When I knew them. But I don't know of anybody that has had an abortion that doesn't have some kind of, hopefully there's no shame and hopefully there's no like condemnation that they're putting on themselves. Because if you are new in Christ, if you're saved, that's gone. That's gone. You don't need to worry about that stuff. But a lot of times there's remorse in all of that. They're very sad of the decision they made.
Starting point is 00:53:55 You have to move on. You can't live in that. But I'm just saying, there's some sense of remorse. They're not celebrating doing it. Do you know what I'm saying? And so for me, it's like that's wicked. There's one thing that's a sinner is a sinner, but then there's wicked
Starting point is 00:54:12 and evil, and those are two different things. These people are wicked and evil. Preach. You can always tell by their laughs, too. Like, not even joking. I can tell by someone's laugh. That sounds so bad. No, that's so true. You can hear by someone's laugh like that sounds so bad but no that's so true you can hear it in their laugh i mean kamala's i'm like gonna be kicked off facebook
Starting point is 00:54:30 but i'm just saying i mean kamala's laugh you are gonna get kicked off i mean she's it's too much like i think they made him stop i think she they were like please stop cackling oh they had to tell her to stop laughing because it's been like it's been like, it's been less, but it was man. Well, she's made fun of horribly. I know. Obviously. Why wouldn't they?
Starting point is 00:54:50 It's so bad. And the timing of it, I'm just like, what? She's an idiot. Did you fall out of a coconut tree? I talk about laughs. Oh my gosh.
Starting point is 00:55:04 Sorry. Not sorry. Yeah. Same. I know your laugh is great. I talk about laughs oh my gosh sorry not sorry yeah same I know your laugh is great your laugh is great hers is not she's like I don't even know how she laughs no one can even recreate it
Starting point is 00:55:19 I know so bad and the timing it's just terrible Tempest and I have contests to see who can have the most evil laugh. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:25 You know. There you go. So far, Tempest is ahead. I was going to say, Tempest probably puts it all that she has into it. She does. I believe that. She's an actress. It's how we break the tension sometimes.
Starting point is 00:55:42 Smart. When I really just want to punch her in her face. You say laugh at me. Yeah. Tempest laugh at me. She'll look at me and she'll start laughing. And then I'm like, okay.
Starting point is 00:55:52 Yeah. I don't hate you anymore. I just loathe you. Yeah. Your life has been spared. Yeah. For one more day. One last question.
Starting point is 00:56:01 And this one's been, this one's going to take more than the four minutes, but I want to answer it because it's been in the queue for a little while. But it says, this person, it's a little bit of a lengthy question, but you've got to hear the whole entire thing so that you understand where they're coming from. It says, I will provide a brief question, but the concepts behind it are important to understand
Starting point is 00:56:24 why you are getting this question. So you may want to read all some of it on the podcast. Some of it overlaps previous discussions items, and there is one other midpoint question. So here's the question. What are your thoughts regarding alternative healing methods? We all know that the preferred method of healing is through God and immediate. Secondary would be through God and by his timetable, always improving every day, even if a little bit and not always noticeable.
Starting point is 00:56:52 After that, things get a little fuzzier. Doctors definitely have their role, and everyone likes to point out that Luke was a doctor. They most have skills which God gave them to help people. However, if you go to the doctor to try and resolve things quicker, you are potentially falling out of your faith and walking away from the healing that God may have already given you. Question mark.
Starting point is 00:57:15 That's what they're asking again. I was told a story where that happened, so I've kind of answered that question already, but you may have some additional thoughts. Yes, I agree with you that yes, here's the question again that I'm agreeing with him on. So we'll go with that. However, if you go to the doctor
Starting point is 00:57:33 to try and resolve things quicker, are you potentially falling out of your faith and walking away from the healing that God may have already given you? That answer is yes. I would agree with you that I have seen where people the lord told them they were healed they doubted it stepped out went to the doctor and made things worse for themselves by a lot like as in they were healed of cancer
Starting point is 00:57:58 went had tests no cancer in their body the doctor still told them they should go through radiation and they died truth true story so yeah you can think think things worse for yourself 100 there are other newer methods out there which i believe are just tools provided by god if you thinking that god has provided this to you for help. This shouldn't be a problem. However, others are looking for guidance to make sure that these methods aren't being put out there as another way to pull us away from God and his healing. So here's a few examples of what they're talking about. Red light therapy. Okay. So they have a friend who went and got red light therapy or they have a neighbor and they got full relief from this neuropathy from their neuropathy. Excuse me. So they have a neighbor who got full relief from their neuropathy using it.
Starting point is 00:59:00 And now others have gotten minor relief from other issues. I agree with that. I think there are some things like, I think everybody on the peanut gallery is in agreement. Like holistic things, I have no problem with holistic things. I think there's something to be said for, like, you know, I make fun of grounding, but actually grounding, there is something to be said for grounding. I mean, it was used back in pioneer days. There's something to be said for that.
Starting point is 00:59:31 There's something to be said for using medicinal purposes from plants like aloe and things like that. Totally in agreement with those things. Those are more holistic versus medicinal, pharmaceutical, injecting your body with chemicals. Totally different. Ladies, chime in if you want to while I go through this. Totally. So the next one is energy enhancement, which is life enhancing energy fields. There are now facilities popping up, which I don't know about this.
Starting point is 01:00:01 They might, probably Sarah would know this more than me. Because sometimes you're like always looking at what's out there. Do you know what I'm saying? Have you ever heard of this before, Sarah? Life enhancement. Energy, energy enhancement, which is life enhancing energy fields. And there are new facilities popping up. One is in Port Charlotte and one is in Sarasota. And I know people who came out feeling pretty good after. Do you know? Have you ever heard of that? Yeah, it sounds like Reiki to me. Like, that sounds... Well, no, because then they talk about crystals.
Starting point is 01:00:29 Then they go to crystals, usually thought of along with Reiki. It seems like God created the crystals, but then you have to question the energy in them and originated. So that's not Reiki. The energy enhancement is not. I'm not big into crystals. I'm going to be honest with you. And the reason I'm not, it's not because I think crystals are bad. It's just because what has happened is we have
Starting point is 01:00:52 taken crystals and we have used them in a bad way. And so how do you know that you're not having somebody do something demonic over you? I don't want anybody doing anything demonic over me. You would say, well, you do yoga. I have done yoga. Okay. I don't do yoga, but I have done yoga. I felt pretty dang good afterwards. Yeah. I don't like, like I know there's like, again, we could go into the whole thing and I'll only briefly talk about this, but's no difference between christians who do
Starting point is 01:01:25 uh the same positions as yoga but they've changed the name what's the diff and it and and people have just so you know right there are christian they're not called yoga but um uh there's they are they are christian um it's not they're not trainers what are they called what is the when you have a yoga instructors okay there are christian instructors that have taken the positions of different yoga positions like i don't know like one's downward dog i don't even know the names of the different positions shavasana um pigeon see i't even know the names of the different positions. Shavasana, pigeon, triangle, warrior. So they take these positions and they change the names, but they still take the
Starting point is 01:02:14 positions. Do you know why? Because here's the thing. You can't stretch your body any other way, but that position, and that's the best position to stretch your body and to get certain that position, and that's the best position to stretch your body and to get certain release out of certain joints and certain muscles. Okay. It's not the name or the position that is demonic.
Starting point is 01:02:35 It's if you allow it to be. And you can say that about crystals. I get that. But usually the person that's using the crystal on you is demonic. And I don't want anything. I don't. The the instructors like I have gone to I have done yoga and I've done it where I've gone to two different. I haven't done yoga that much, but I've gone.
Starting point is 01:02:56 I think I've done it three times and two of them. I would not go back. You know why? Because they I was weird. Not for me. Yeah. I i'm like you're not move along but then i have done it with another one and they're like they're a christian and they're like it's nothing to them they're like it's just we're i don't even know if she even says the names but we're just doing the positions we're moving around right and when i get done i'm like
Starting point is 01:03:25 oh gosh man my body feels so much better for me the crystal thing i know you people would say well i don't see any difference well i don't see any i i see a big difference uh or i don't see any difference uh people who do halloween or don't do halloween but yet they go to their church and they do fall festivals right on the same night their kid up. I see no difference in that either. So work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. Yeah. I mean, you don't see differences in places I don't see differences. That's the way it goes. So the next part of the question is the biggest reason this question came up is because a friend, not me, used the EE system, came out feeling pretty good, but then felt like
Starting point is 01:04:06 some of their previous healing was gone. It could have just been an effect of the energy field, but raising the original question is certainly valid. The person is now looking for guidance from the Holy Spirit. I figured that it was a good question to bounce around on the whole potline. We know that pharmaceutical companies are producing a lot of products that really aren't good for us, and we can look at the COVID jabs, for example. I agree. That probably just got me kicked off more from YouTube and off of Facebook, but that's okay. That can make one question a lot of these, that can make one question a lot of these other things that are supposed to help you. Believe it or not, this would be considered the short version since there are so many little
Starting point is 01:04:43 nuances when you start discussing healing. I agree with you. I'm big on listen. I'm big, like you said, the first part of healing is God heals and he heals immediately. And I've seen it so many times. But I also have seen it where God heals and heals progressively. And sometimes the progressive need a little bit of relief to get to the immediate.
Starting point is 01:05:08 And I'm not opposed to that. I'm not opposed, like if, for example, if you hurt a body part, right, and getting a steroid shot gives you a little bit of relief to get you, I can only think of that because that gives you immediate relief, right? You get a steroid shot to get that bit of relief
Starting point is 01:05:32 to get your, so your mind is back in the game and you start building your faith and you get into the word and you're just, so when that steroid shot wears off, because it will, either the pain never comes back, or once it starts coming back, you're able to attack it stronger,
Starting point is 01:05:50 more like with a vengeance, that kind of thing. I don't think that there's anything wrong with that. I really don't. Ladies, do you disagree or agree? Totally agree. Yeah, I'm on board with that. Yeah. As long as whatever medicinal thing you're going after,
Starting point is 01:06:08 that's not your answer. Right. So I'll give you a great example of something like what we're talking about. So I know somebody who was diagnosed with cancer, right? They were diagnosed with cancer, and this is somewhat recent, right? They were diagnosed with cancer, right? They were diagnosed with cancer, and this is somewhat recent, right? They were diagnosed with cancer,
Starting point is 01:06:28 and they started taking the radiation treatments, right? And the radiation treatments were pretty long because it was a pretty severe case of, it was stage four cancer. They didn't even get to half of the radiation treatments because they had been standing in faith and standing in faith. They didn't believe that they were never even going to have to take this radiation. But it got to a place where they were going to have to.
Starting point is 01:06:54 But they never stopped walking in faith. They were still believing somehow God was going to pull this out and there was going to be a miracle. Lo and behold, they didn't even get halfway through. They didn't even get halfway through. And they were told, we're taking you off for your radiation treatments. Like, wait, what? You have no cancer in your body.
Starting point is 01:07:15 Now there's absolutely, positively, no way that that cancer went away with the amount of radiation treatments that they were taking, or they had only only taken it was not possible right and yet they're they're off they don't they're not taking anymore it's done it's it's over for them because that maybe just doing that little bit getting that little bit of a reprieve in the mind do you know what'm saying? And like being able to get back on that horse and like, and, and when, and now the miracle has taken place there, it's a done deal. Yeah. Like, so those are the things that I, I think about that even when you succumb to having to do something
Starting point is 01:08:00 that you really were believing you wouldn't have to do what do you do in that situation do you just like i lost or do you go okay this little battle i am not i have not won this battle but the war is not over and i will defeat this situation it's not over right you just gotta like your head's gotta be in the. And sometimes just getting a little bit of relief or a little bit of a reprieve gets you back into the game. And so for me, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. But the biggest thing is the scriptures are true. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. If you stick to that scripture, which is Romans 10, 17. If you stick to that scripture, you're going to win. You're going to win no matter what you're going through.
Starting point is 01:09:01 So I would seriously stay away from the pharmaceutical drugs as best as I could. But do what you got to do to get to the place that you got to get to so that faith in so in your faith, you can win every time. What do you think, ladies? Yeah, I agree. I've, I've had friends or people or even myself when you're so sick, and you just don't feel good. It's so hard to like like even consider anything else. Like when you've hit that place, you're like, how do I, like, I don't even, how do I even pray? What's a, what is the Bible? You get to that place where you're so sick.
Starting point is 01:09:32 And so the goal is to not ever get to that place. But if you were to get to that place, right, what do you do? Just like succumb to it and die? No. So you got to figure it out and then you hope the next time you get even better. And so we should be working on that now.
Starting point is 01:09:45 And every time you feel a tickle in your throat, stop it right there. Just say, nope, absolutely not. And then like you just said, you speak the word of God over yourself. You put healing scriptures on, you listen to healing sermons, anything that you have to do. All the time. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:59 So you don't, it doesn't even get to that place. And then I truly believe when you're in worship, you are receiving healing. So I just, every Sunday I go in and I have an expectation that if there's something in my body that I don't even know about, it's dead, there, done, I'm healed. I walk out of this building every single time healed.
Starting point is 01:10:17 And I just, I don't give room for my mind to wander on things like that. Yep. You know, there's two also, um, communion. Um, I, this just came to my,
Starting point is 01:10:28 my, my thoughts and then I'll let Sarah and Talia say something. So apologize for interrupting you guys. Um, but, um, communion is key as well for healing in your body. And you need to study that out because, um,
Starting point is 01:10:41 when you're sick, start doing communion and you'll be shocked at how because communion is his body yeah and so study that out though about communion and the healing and so you'll be shocked a lot of people don't correlate um correlate that but but the thing is is uh a lot of people misuse communion and they take it when they't take it. So make sure all of that's too because you don't want to curse yourself if you're taking communion and you shouldn't be. But Talia and Sarah.
Starting point is 01:11:12 Yeah, I agree with both of you guys. Usually if I'm like sick, I'll put on healing sermons or I'll take one specific verse that is pointed out to me about healing and I'll just speak that over myself the whole entire day. And usually it's gone.
Starting point is 01:11:24 Yeah. Yeah, it's gone. Yeah. Yeah. It's true. So I've recently come across some believers that are all up in arms about chiropractic. Yeah. What? I was shocked because my introduction to and like everything about chiropractic was from a very strong believer a chiropractor who was like a strong christian yeah who just explained like your your spine is out of alignment and it helps with other health
Starting point is 01:11:53 all the nerves run through the spine yeah right so everything when i saw that it kind of like pushed me over the edge a little bit because i'm like why are we coming against all of these things yeah when like you people have to do what they have to do right like you're saying you know pharmaceuticals is exactly like it's okay to take an ibuprofen for your back pain but don't go to the chiropractor because it's based on spiritualism okay my chiropractor never was based on spiritualism it's all like while he was adjusting but his wife was adjusting, praying over us. If they're,
Starting point is 01:12:27 if they're Christians, is it not the laying on of hands? Right. Like they're literally laying. But every nerve ending to every part of your body. Correct. Down to your toes, all the way through your brain is run through the back. I've seen little kids get chiropractic adjustments and they stopped wetting the bed.
Starting point is 01:12:43 Like I've seen. All kinds of things through chiropractic. And so. ADHD. People will come against it and say that it's, you know, that it's demonic. And you know what? Never seen that before. But the people that are all against the yoga and the chiropractic and all this.
Starting point is 01:12:59 Halloween, yeah. And the breath work. What did you talk about? What is the problem with breath work? I need to know. I don't know what that is. Because I breathe every day. What's breath work. What is the problem with breath work? I need to know. I don't know what that is. Because I breathe every day. What's breath work?
Starting point is 01:13:08 It's like breath work apparently is focusing on your breath and doing different types of breath. And I'm like. What? Mike Lamaze. It's like part of yoga where they, you know, you breathe it. They do like breathing in the different. I've never done that with yoga. So I look at these people who come against it and i'm like if you don't look like the what i want in
Starting point is 01:13:31 my life i'm not listening to you like you eat all you eat is crap and you're gonna and you're miserable exercise you're overweight like i'm not gonna listen to your advice you tell me that holistic wellness is not good because you don't have any kind of wellness like you're overweight like i'm not gonna listen to your you tell me that holistic wellness is not good because you don't have any kind of wellness like you're just gonna eat whatever you want and not not exercise and treat your temple like crap but then tell people that they shouldn't go to the chiropractor well if they go to the doctor it's just as bad then i don't think these particular people go do anything except they just which good for them. If their faith is that great then why do they
Starting point is 01:14:07 look disgusting? Ouch. Sorry. Sorry not sorry. I've never heard of the breath in me. What? Because they do that in yoga. They do the humming like that. I've never done that. I've never done that in my yoga.
Starting point is 01:14:25 You hold your breath, and then you breathe out a certain way. Or, like, lion breathing, where they go, ah. You know, and there's, like, all this stuff. I've never done any of that. I don't have enough yoga experience, okay? A lot of the problem with us, like, God breathed life into us. And so if you just spend some time, like quiet and like taking a deep breath, you're going to feel different.
Starting point is 01:14:47 You are. Because you're going to like, because most of us are really shallow breathing. Expanding your lungs. Yeah. Yeah. It's a muscle. So I just, I scratch my head at these people and I go, well, if that, if it's all working for you, praise the Lord.
Starting point is 01:15:01 Yeah. But I like to go to the chiropractor and I like my yoga and whatever. You know what's really interesting? I'm a little passionate there. Sorry, but not sorry. That's okay. No, this will kind of go with what you're saying. So humming, when you hum, your mouth is closed.
Starting point is 01:15:18 And so it's doing something to your nasal cavity and it's actually increasing nitric oxide. Really? And people are taking supplements because it's really good for you and i'm trying to find out exactly like what like what all this recently yeah it's like a new thing and well it's not new obviously but it's like humming from humming and i catch myself humming a lot and jerry's always like when you're really happy you're always humming and i'm like i think i'm always happy but i there must be something about it and there's something too where you can't like be having anxious
Starting point is 01:15:46 thoughts or something. It has to do with like the resonance and the vibration when you're humming. Really? Meme used to hum all the time. Really? Yeah. Isn't that interesting? I never hum. I must be miserable. But like you need to start humming.
Starting point is 01:16:02 Yeah, I don't always. I speak in tongues all the time. You don't hum a song? You think that that you can relate that like praying in tongues yeah it's the same all the time yeah yeah yeah like if i if i like find myself quiet i'm like oh i'm gonna start praying again yeah i literally don't yeah at home though yeah that's wild that is wild i don't do it often but i do catch myself doing it but it is usually when a song's stuck in my head i'll just start humming it but i don't always and so i just it's better than if you were to sing it singing out loud apparently apparently see even my singing voice listen i'm gonna start singing out loud please don't doing it make a joyful noise
Starting point is 01:16:41 whatever viewers we have will be gone in two seconds flat. No, it's for the plot. They'd love it. Yes, I agree. That's the whole purpose of like karaoke. That's true. You don't have to sing.
Starting point is 01:16:52 Exactly. See, and that's what I prefer. Like if I go to karaoke, I don't want the person to be singing. Great singer. No, I want them to sing like Heather.
Starting point is 01:17:01 She just walked into the room. I don't want to hear somebody good sing. You want to have fun. Yeah. You want to have fun. You want to hear like be silly and just laugh. Yeah. Right. It's all about the moment. It is. But Hope, I think you nailed it on the head when you said like this can't like if you're getting a temporary relief from something and you don't have a conviction about it and your goal isn't to continue to do this forever, then I think that's I think that's a good place. If that's where your faith that that's where you're at. We all have moments like that. So I think you kind of nailed it.
Starting point is 01:17:35 It's not like this religious thing that like I think people want to condemn themselves all the time just because like they're always listening to outsiders and you have to do what you've got to do. But don't like whatever this EE system is, I tried to look it up. It looks kind of like... It looks really weird. It looks woo-woo. Does it look like what I put on your head? I'm going.
Starting point is 01:17:53 Or the... Expose. That's what I think of when I read that. I think of what I put on you guys. Would you give me electrolysis? I thought the same thing. The shockers. The shockers. The shockers.
Starting point is 01:18:05 That's what I think it's of when I hear it. Me too. When I was shocking the crap out of you guys. It looks a little too woo-woo for me. I'm in. It is. There's some kind of like static TV. It looks like I'm being hypnotized.
Starting point is 01:18:16 It does. It does. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But they talk about like the atoms of water like bouncing around. Whatever. But like it just like use Jesus, do Jesus first, like try at least give the Holy Spirit an opportunity to speak to you, to do the healings, to do a miracle in your life. And then, um, whatever, work out your own salvation and fear and trembling. But
Starting point is 01:18:36 I'm telling you, like, usually people are coping with something. So it's usually like, well, you know, God didn't work, but really you're the problem. And so figure out why you're the problem. Figure out what the issue is, right? Whatever it is, either you're sinning or you're doing something, you know, you're not supposed to do. And yeah. And then, and then you have like, everybody's always like, oh, I didn't have doubt. Yes, you did. You, if it didn't come through, you've a hundred percent had doubt. Stop it. Stop avoiding that and ask God. Did you ask God if you had doubt? No, I just know I didn't. No, you probably did. And so. 100%. See, and this is what I love about Kenneth Hagen. Yeah. Kenneth Hagen says you can have doubt in your head and belief in your heart. Yeah. But
Starting point is 01:19:15 you can't have doubt in your heart. Yeah. Yeah. That's good. And belief at the same time. Right. Right. Because what's going to happen is, and he uses this great illustration, he has these great illustrations, but he's like, when you're believing for something you're what's going to happen is and he uses this great illustration he has these great illustrations but he's like when you're believing for something your head's going to going to say it's never going to happen because he's like satan's going to come against you he's going to try and use your mind against you that's where we're warned against our imagination but but your heart is really where we're you know out of the months the heart the heart speaks like you can you can have doubt in your head, but you can speak to that doubt. Because he would say to, he would literally say,
Starting point is 01:19:51 when the doubt would come to his head, he'd be like, that's not going to happen. I know that's not going to happen. You know why I know that's not going to happen? Because God's word tells me this. True. Out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. So he would speak the word against the doubt that was in his head.
Starting point is 01:20:04 You can have doubt in your head and belief in your heart, but it don't go the other way around, guys. And most of the time, people have doubt in their heart, not doubt in their head. Or they have both, head and heart. You do have it. You do, yeah. And that's okay.
Starting point is 01:20:20 Because if you know what the problem is, you can fix the problem. But if you don't know, and you believe that you don't have doubt, then everything's going to be a mystery. And you're going to always wonder, will it happen for me? That? Yeah. Guess what? It won't. Because second Timothy says you're like a toss, a wave tossed to and fro. Expect that man to receive nothing. So forget about it. It's not going to work. Absolutely. I know. And that's so true. And even mom said, watch the words that you speak over yourself too, because your words are so powerful. So just don't say anything. Whatever's in the heart is coming out of your mouth. Yep.
Starting point is 01:20:54 And most of the time you'll know whether somebody has faith or not by the words that they speak. And most people speak both. They speak words of faith and then words of doubt. Yeah. Always. Right. And then they wonder why. Right. Exactly. And you need to be very careful because some people be like, well, that worked for them or they had faith and they died and they, you know, they went and did this and they did this. Like, don't worry about anybody else because you don't know. Like you don't know what they they're saying behind closed doors, talking to God. Some people want to get out of here, and they're like, I don't want to live anymore. And they're telling everybody else, oh, I want to live, I want to live.
Starting point is 01:21:33 Because how do you let anybody down and say that? But really, they're like, God, please take me. Take me today. And then other people have sinned behind closed doors, and they have cancer, but you don't know that. And so just don't focus so much on what works for other people, what doesn't work for like what does God's word say? Yeah. And stick to that period. Others life experiences do not apply to you.
Starting point is 01:21:55 Nope. Correct. They just don't apply to you. They don't. Thank God. So don't allow them. Yeah. Don't allow it.
Starting point is 01:22:01 But most people let others life experiences dictate their life. Almost. Instead of the word. Yeah. Don't allow it. But most people let others life experiences dictate their life instead of the word. Yeah. Especially new believers or believers that don't read their word and know the truth or are in a strong church. They're immediately saying, you know, well, what do you say about the terminal illness that the Christian had? I'm like, you don't know, you don't know what they were dealing with. And so, yeah, it's just, it's so important. God's word is true and count every man a liar. So just, just stick with God's word. Super simple. Find out what it says about you and stick to it. And then ride that pony all the way to the healing or whatever you're waiting for. Yeah. The miracle healing. Amen. Yep. So we're going to close out
Starting point is 01:22:41 and we expect to see all of you ladies within earshot. We will be on Thursday night. We'll be on all the platforms. We've got that worked out. Good, perfect.
