FAITH --
I DON'T THINK HE IS READY
YET.
FAMILY.
AND I SAID, WE'RE GOING
TO STARVE TO DEATH.
AND DUCKS.
IT MAKES KIND OF LIKE A
DUCK CALLING IN A TRAP.
[LAUGHTER]
Lee: THE STARS OF
TV's HOTTEST SHOW.
THERE ARE REDNECKS
HUNTING DUCKS, THERE IS HOPE
FOR US ALL.
Lee: ON TODAY'S "700
CLUB."
*
Pat: WELCOME TO THIS
EDITION OF "THE 700 CLUB."
THE NEWS SEEM NUCE SEEMS TO
BE TIGHTENING AROUND THE
ADMINISTRATION, LEE WEBB IS
GOING TO BRING US MORE LATER
ON, WHAT IS HAPPENING
BECAUSE OF ALL OF THESE
SCANDALS.
BUT WORSE THAN THE SCANDALS
IS THE WAR THAT IS BREAKING
OUT IN NIGERIA.
WE GOT A REPORT THAT THE
HEAD OF ONE OF THE
EVANGELICAL ORGANIZATIONS
HAS BEEN MURDERED.
THERE IS GREAT SADNESS OVER
THERE.
AMERICA GRANTS ASYLUM FOR
ALL KINDS OF REFUGEES, BUT
NOT FOR A HOME-SCHOOLING
FAMILY THAT FACES
PERSECUTION IN GERMANY.
THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION HAS
FOUGHT AGAINST THEM.
Kristi: NOW A U.S.
APPEALS COURT HAS REJECTED
THEIR BID TO STAY IN
AMERICA.
AND THEY COULD BE FORCED TO
FACE THE HOSTILE GERMAN
GOVERNMENT.
DALE HURD HAS THE STORY.
Reporter: THE APPEALS
COURT UPHELD THE OBAMA
ADMINISTRATION'S REFUSAL OF
ASYLUM TO THE REMICA
FAMILY.
THEY FLED GERMANY IN 2008,
FACING CRIMINAL PROSECUTION
FOR HOME-SCHOOLING.
THEY LIVE IN TENNESSEE.
IN 2010, THEY WERE GRANTED
POLITICAL ASYLUM BY AN
IMMIGRATION JUDGE.
BUT THAT DECISION WAS
OVERTURNED BY THE BOARD OF
IMMIGRATION APPEALS LAST
YEAR.
ON TUESDAY, THE THREE-JUDGE
PANEL OF THE CIRCUIT ISSUED
A UNANIMOUS DECISION AGAINST
THE FAMILY.
THEY BEGAN HOME-SCHOOLING IN
GERMANY BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T
WANT THEIR CHILDREN EXPOSED
TO THINGS LIKE WITCHCRAFT
AND GRAPHIC SEX EDUCATION
THAT ARE TAUGHT IN GERMAN
SCHOOLS.
ALSO, THERE WERE STORIES
WHERE THEY WERE ENCOURAGED
TO ASK THE DEVIL FOR HELP
INSTEAD GOD.
AND, ACTUALLY, THE DEVIL
WOULD HELP.
AND WE FOUND OUT WHAT IS
IN THE TEXTBOOKS.
IT IS EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE
FROM WHAT THE BIBLE TELLS US
AND TEACHES US.
AND WE WANTED TO PROTECT
THEM.
Reporter: WHILE THE
APPEALS COURT ACKNOWLEDGED
THAT THE U.S. CONSTITUTION
RECOGNIZES THE RIGHTS OF
PARENTS TO HOME-SCHOOL, IT
REFUSED TO GRANT WHAT GERMAN
HOME-SCHOOLERS FACE AMOUNTS
TO PER CONSTITUTION.
MICHAEL FARUM OF THE
HOME-SCHOOLING ASSOCIATION
WHICH REPRESENTED THE FAMILY
SAYS WE BELIEVE THE SIXTH
CIRCUIT IS WRONG AND WE WILL
APPEAL THEIR DECISION.
THE FAMILY TOLD CBN NEWS
THEY'RE DISAPPOINTED, BUT
SAYS GOD IS IN CONTROL.
THEY KNOW WHAT THEY FACE IN
GERMANY IF THEY WERE
DEPORTED.
FIRST THEY WOULD FINE US
WITH INCREASINGLY HIGH
FINES.
AND THEY WOULD THREATEN US
TO TAKE AWAY CUSTODY, AND
THERE MIGHT BE JAIL TIME,
TOO.
BUT THE MAIN THREAT IS THE
CUSTODY BECAUSE THEN, OF
COURSE, THE CHILDREN ARE
TAKEN AWAY FROM YOU
COMPLETELY.
I MEAN, THAT'S WHAT NO
FAMILY WANTS, RIGHT?
Reporter: DALE HURD,
CBN NEWS.
Pat: THANKS, DALE.
YOU DON'T THINK OF WEST
GERMANY AS BEING A
PERSECUTOR OF CHRISTIANS.
BUT THERE IS AN
ANTI-CHRISTIAN BIAS THAT IS
PERVASIVE IN EUROPE, AND
THAT MAY BE AN EXAMPLE OF
IT.
THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION'S
WOES ARE GROWING WORSE EVERY
DAY AS WE SAID EARLIER.
LEE WEBB HAS MORE ON THE
BREWING I.R.S. SCANDAL.
Lee: PAT, FRANKLIN
GRAHAM SAYS THE I.R.S.
TARGETED THE BILLY GRAHAM
ASSOCIATION AND HIS
SAMARITAN'S PURSE MUSCULAR
MINISTRY.
THAT COMES AS THE I.R.S. TEA
PARTY SCANDAL IS TURNING
INTO A CRIMINAL
INVESTIGATION NOW, AND THE
JUSTICE DEPARTMENT AND THE
F.B.I. ARE GETTING
INVOLVED.
CHARLENE ISRAEL HAS MORE.
Reporter: THE STAKES
ARE GETTING HIGHER IN THE
I.R.S. SCANDAL.
NOW REACHING POSSIBLE
CRIMINAL CONDUCT.
A NEW AGENCY WATCHDOG REPORT
BLAMES INEFFECTIVE
MANAGEMENT FOR ALLOWING
AGENTS TO TARGET
CONSERVATIVE GROUPS FOR MORE
THAN 18 MONTHS.
IT CALLS THE INFORMATION
THEY ASKED FOR IRL VANDER
IRIRRELEVANT AND
UNNECESSARY.
Reporter: THE F.B.I.
AND THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT
ARE WORKING TOGETHER ON THE
CASE.
TUESDAY, U.S.
ATTORNEY-GENERAL ERIC HOLDER
ANNOUNCED A CRIMINAL
INVESTIGATION.
WE'RE EXAMINING THE FACTS
TO SEE IF THERE WERE
CRIMINAL VIOLATIONS.
Reporter: INVESTIGATORS
WILL LOOK INTO WEATHER THE
I.R.S. IT LEGALLY ENGAGED IN
PARTISAN POLITICS, AND
WHETHER THEY VIOLATED THE
CIVIL RIGHTS OF CONSERVATIVE
AND TEA PARTY GROUPS BY
SINGLING THEM OUT FOR EXTRA
REVIEW.
WE'RE GOING TO GET TO THE
BOTTOM OF THIS.
Reporter: IN A
STATEMENT PRESIDENT OBAMA
CALLED THE WATCHDOG REPORT
FINDINGS INTOLERABLE AND
INEXCUSABLE.
HE WENT ON TO SAY, "THE
I.R.S. MUST APPLY THE LAW IN
A FAIR AND IMPARTIAL WAY.
AND ITS EMPLOYEES MUST ACT
WITH UTMOST INTEGRITY."
THIS REPORT SHOWS THAT SOME
OF THE EMPLOYEES FAILED THAT
TEST.
STILL, THE I.R.S. CONTINUES
TO OFFER EXCUSES FOR ITS
BEHAVIOR.
OFFICIALS SAY WHILE SOME
INAPPROPRIATE SHORTCUTS WERE
USED, DETERMINING IF
ORGANIZATIONS ARE ENGAGING
IN AN ILLEGAL WAY IS
REQUIRED BY LAW.
AND THEY EVEN BLAME SOME OF
THE CONSERVATIVE GROUPS,
SAYING THEIR APPLICATIONS
WERE TOO VAGUE.
CHARLENE ISRAEL, CBN NEWS.
Lee: THE JUSTICE
DEPARTMENT'S INVESTIGATION
COULD LEAD TO JAIL TIME FOR
THOSE INVOLVED IN THIS
SCANDAL.
THE MAXIMUM PENALTY, PAT,
FOR VIOLATING THE CIVIL
RIGHTS STATUTE IS 10 YEARS
IN PRISON.
Pat: THE AMAZING THING
IS THE PRESIDENT SAYS THE
I.R.S. IS AN INDEPENDENT
AGENCY.
INDEPENDENT.
THE COMMISSION OF THE I.R.S.
REPORTS TO THE SECRETARY OF
THE TREASURY, WHO IS A
CABINET MEMBER OF MR. OBAMA
AND IS APPOINTED BY OBAMA.
MR. OBAMA, AS PRESIDENT, HAS
THE STATUTORY RULE TO
APPOINT THE COMMISSIONER AT
WILL, NOT FOR CAUSE, BUT AT
WILL.
YOU SAY THIS GUY IS
INDEPENDENT?
HE'S NOT INDEPENDENT AT
ALL.
THE THING IS, IT'S LIKE I'M
ON THE SIDELINES, AND I
DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE
DOING.
IF THEY DO SOMETHING WRONG,
I THINK IT IS TERRIBLE AND
REPREHENSIBLE.
AND THEY SAY IF THEY DID
SOMETHING WRONG, BUT THEY
ALREADY ADMITTED THEY DID
SOMETHING WRONG.
BUT THEY SAY IT WAS THOSE
PEOPLE IN CINCINNATI THAT
DID IT.
NO.
IT WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE
CHIEF COUNCIL'S OFFICE.
AND IT IS A MAJOR DEAL, AND
THE AMERICAN CENTER FOR LAW
AND JUSTICE, BY THE WAY, IS
SUING THEM BECAUSE OF WHAT
IT DID.
AND THE THOUSANDS OF HOURS
THAT WERE SPENT ANSWERING
SOME OF THEIR RIDICULOUS
INQUIRIES ON THESE CASES,
AND NOW FRANKLIN GRAHAM SAYS
THEY CAME IN TO BEAT UP THE
BILLY GRAHAM ORGANIZATION
AND SAMARITAN'S PURSE.
I MEAN, THIS IS NOT A GOOD
THING.
LEE?
Lee: PAT, THE
ATTORNEY-GENERAL IS ON THE
HOT SEAT FOR THE JUSTICE
DEPARTMENT'S GATHERING OF
PHONE RECORDS AT THE
ASSOCIATED PRESS.
ERIC HOLDER FACES TOUGH
QUESTIONS ON CAPITOL HILL AT
A HOUSE JUDICIARY
COMMITTEE.
YESTERDAY HE DEFENDED THE
A.P. SUBPOENAS AT A NEWS
CONFERENCE.
HE CLAIMED IT WAS ALL PART
OF A CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION
INTO THE LEAK OF CLASSIFIED
INFORMATION.
CRITICS, THOUGH, CALL IT
GOVERNMENT OVERREACH.
I HAVE TO SAY THIS IS
AMONG, IF NOT THE MOST
SERIOUS, IT IS WITHIN THE
TOP TWO OR THREE MOST
SERIOUS LEAKS I'VE EVER
SEEN.
IT PUTS THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
AT RISK.
AND THAT IS NOT HYPERBOLE.
IT PUT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
AT RISK IN TRYING TO
DETERMINE WHO IS RESPONSIBLE
FOR THAT REQUIRES VERY
AGGRESSIVE ACTION.
ANY OF THESE PANOPLY OF
THINGS THAT ARE COMING DOWN,
IT IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE
APPARENT THAT THE OBAMA
ADMINISTRATION DOES NOT
RESPECT THE WALL BETWEEN THE
GOVERNMENT, THE FOURTH
AMENDMENT, WHICH MEANS YOU
AS AN INDIVIDUAL, AS A
CITIZEN, HAS SECURED YOUR
PAPERS AND YOUR PERSONAL
BELONGINGS, AND THE
GOVERNMENT.
Lee: AND THE A.P. CALLS
IT A MASSIVE AND
UNPRECEDENTEPRECEDENTED
INTRUSION.
WELL, ALL OF THIS MUST HAVE
THE WEST WING OF THE WHITE
HOUSE ON EDGE THESE DAYS.
EVEN THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA
ARE GOING AFTER THE
PRESIDENT.
MIKE ALLEN IN JIM VANDI HEIM
RIGHT, "OBAMAS RHETORIC HAS
LEFT HIM WITH LITTLE
GOODWILL, EVEN AMONG THE
DEMOCRATS."
AND NOW EVEN THE WEST WING
HAS EVERY INCENTIVE TO BE AS
RUTHLESS AS CAN BE.
SO THE BIG QUESTION IS: CAN
PRESIDENT OBAMA WEATHER THE
STORM.
Reporter: A PRESIDENT'S
LEGACY IS LARGELY DETERMINED
BY HOW WELL HE LEADS,
PARTICULARLY IN TOUGH
TIMES.
AUTHOR AND PROFESSOR CHARLES
DUNN RATES FOUR PRESIDENTS
AT THE TOP, WASHINGTON,
LINCOLN, FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT,
AND RONALD REAGAN.
Reporter: AT THIS STAGE
OF PRESIDENT OBAMA'S TENURE
IN THE WHITE HOUSE, HOW
WOULD YOU RATE HIM?
HE GETS A FAILING GRADE
FOR LEADERSHIP.
BUT IF YOU LOOK AT THE
HISTORY, HE IS ELECTED TO
REPRESENT THE WHOLE OF THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE.
I HAVE TO RATE HIM VERY LOW
ON THAT BECAUSE HE HAS
CONDUCTED A STRATEGY OF
DIVIDE AND CONQUER.
Reporter: DUNN BELIEVES
OBAMA'S HEALTH CARE MANDATE
IS A GOOD EXAMPLE OF THAT
STRATEGY.
A RECENT POLL FINDS THAT 49%
OF THE VOTERS VIEW THE
HEALTH CARE LAW UNFAVORABLY,
WHILE 47% SUPPORT IT.
THAT POLL IS ECHOED AMONG
DR. DUNN'S STUDENTS.
HE HAD ALL OF THE VOTES
HE NEEDED, OVERWHELMING
MAJORITY IN THE HOUSE, SO HE
DIDN'T NEED REPUBLICANS TO
GET IT DONE.
AS A RESULT, YOU HAVE THIS
MASSIVE PIECE OF LEGISLATION
THAT HAS OVERHAULED
ONE-SIXTH OF THE AMERICAN
ECONOMY.
Reporter: DUNN POINTS
TO A SPEECH THAT THE
PRESIDENT MADE AT A SHIPYARD
BACK IN MARCH WHEN THE
SEQUESTER DEADLINE LOOMED.
President Obama: YOU
DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO
CHOOSE, DO I CLOSE FUNDING
FOR THE DISABLED KID OR THE
POOR KID?
DO I CLOSE THIS NAVY
SHIPYARD OR SOME OTHER ONE?
Reporter: DUNN BELIEVES
THOSE TOUGH DECISIONS ARE
WHAT PRESIDENTS ARE ELECTED
TO MAKE.
AGAIN, LOOK AT THOSE
GREAT PRESIDENTS.
THE TOUGH DECISIONS THAT
WASHINGTON MAKES INFORMING
THIS COUNTRY AND THE
PRESIDENCY, THE TOUGH
DECISIONS LINCOLN MADE, THE
TOUGH DECISIONS THAT
FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT MADE,
AND THE TOUGH DECISIONS THAT
RONALD REAGAN MADE -- MAKING
TOUGH DECISIONS IS ONE OF
THE KEY CRITERIA IN
DETERMINING THE RANK OF
PRESIDENTIAL GREATNESS.
Reporter: AND HE
BELIEVES PRESIDENT OBAMA'S
LEADERSHIP STRATEGY DURING@@
HIS FIRST TERM WILL COME
BACK TO HAUNT HIM.
WHEN PRESIDENT OBAMA WON
OFFICE, I SPOKE VERY HIGHLY
OF HIM AS A PERSON WITH
GREAT POTENTIAL.
BUT WE HAVE THIS BIG GAP
BETWEEN PROMISE AND
PERFORMANCE.
IT IS A CREDIBILITY GAP, AND
THAT'S WHAT'S SHOWING NOW AS
HIS POLL NUMBERS ARE
PLUMMETTING.
Lee: AND THE LATEST
RASMUSSUS SHOWS 26% STRONGLY
AP PROOF OF OB'S
PERFORMANCE, BUT 48%
DISAPPROVE.
Pat: YOU CAN DECEIVE
SOME OF THE PEOPLE SOME OF
THE TIME, BUT YOU CAN'T
DECEIVE ALL OF THE PEOPLE
ALL OF THE TIME.
BUT I THINK HE IS TRYING TO
DO IT.
IT IS AMAZING, NOT WANTING
TO TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THESE
ISSUES.
SAYING THAT THE I.R.S.
DOESN'T BELONG TO ME.
IT IS AN INDEPENDENT AFTER
SEE.
I WASN' AGENCY.
I WASN'T RESPONSIBLE FOR
BENGHAZI.
MY JOB IS IS TO BE THE CHIEF
CHEERLEADER.
WELL, HE HAS AN AUDACIOUS
AGENDA AND IT IS COMING BACK
TO HAUNT HIM.
BUT IF THE LIBERALS TURN ON
HIM AND THE PRESS TURNS ON
HIM, AND THE INTRUSION BY
THE I.R.S. AND THE VARIOUS
GROUPS, INCLUDING JEWISH
GROUPS, I MIGHT ADD, IS JUST
THE STUFF OF PRESS INQUIRY
THAT WILL NOT END.
IT'S LIKE PE LIKE PARONAS,
IT'S LIKE A FEEDING FRENZY.
INSTEAD OF SUPPORTING HIM,
EVERYBODY WILL RUN AWAY FROM
HIM.
IT WILL BE VERY PAINFUL FOR
HIM.
I WANT TO SAY VERY, VERY
CLEARLY, I DO NOT REJOICE IN
SEEING THE PRESIDENT OF THE
UNITED STATES DOWNGRADED AND
HUMILIATED.
WE NEED A LEADER, AND WE
NEED HIM TO BE STRONG.
BUT HE HAS SET HIMSELF UP SO
HE WILL NOT BE STRONG
BECAUSE OF THESE PROBLEMS.
LEE?
Lee: PAT, NATIVE
AMERICANS COULD LOSE
PRE-GOVERNMENT HEALTH
COVERAGE UNDER OBAMACARE.
THAT'S BECAUSE OF STRICT NEW
DEFINITIONS ABOUT HUG WHO
QUAL FISE QUALIFIES AS
AMERICAN INDIA'S.
THEY MUST DOCUMENT THEIR
MEMBERSHIP IN ONE OF THE
6600 TRIBES RECOGNIZED BY
THE U.S. BUREAU OF AFFAIRS.
MORE THAN 100 TRIBES ARE
RECOGNIZED BY STATES, NOT
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENTS.
AND MANY TRIBES DO NOT LET
THEIR MEMBERS ENROLL UNTIL
THEY ARE AGE 18.
ANYONE WHO FAILS TO PROVE
THEY ARE INDIAN WILL BE
FORC FORCED TO BUY THEIR
OWN HEALTH INSURANCE OR PAY
A NEARLY $700 FINE.
PAT?
Pat: IN POLITICAL
CORRECTNESS, THEY AREN'T
CALLED INDIANS?
WHAT ARE THEY CALLED?
Kristi: NATIVE
AMERICANS, CORRECT?
Pat: BUT WE DO HAVE A
BUREAU OF NATIVE AMERICAN
AFFAIRS.
IT IS A BUREAU OF INDIAN
AFFAIRS.
THEY HAVE TO BE CLASSIFIED
AS INDIANS TO GET THE
BENEFITS, BUT THE BUREAU
SAYS THEY'RE NATIVE
AMERICANS.
INTERESTING.
LEE, MAYBE YOU HAVE THE
ANSWER TO THAT.
Lee: I'M AFRAID I'LL
HAVE TO LOOK FOR THE ANSWER
TO THAT.
IN OTHER NEWS, ABORTIONIST
CER KERMIT GOSNELL WILL NOT
FACE THE DEATH PRESIDENT.
HIS ATTORNEY GOT HIS LIFE
WITHOUT PAROLE.
HE WAS CONVICTED OF KILLING
THREE BABIES AT THIS
ABORTION CLINIC.
BLACK PRO-LIFE LEADERS ARE
CALLING FOR INVESTIGATIONS
OF OTHER CLINICS.
THEY ACCUSED THE ABORTION
INDUSTRY OF TARGETING BLACK
AMERICANS.
KERMIT GOSNELL IS A
RACIST OF THE WORST KIND
BECAUSE HE PREYED ON WOMEN
AND YOUNG GIRLS OF HIS OWN
RACE.
FOR MORE THAN 30 YEARS,
KERMIT GOSNELL PARTICIPATED
IN AND PERPETUATED THE
EPIDEMIC OF BLACK ON BLACK
CRIME.
FOR 86 YEARS THE KU KLUX
KLAN LYNCHED 3,446 NEGROS,
ABORTION ON DEMAND IN
AMERICA ACCOMPLISHED THAT IN
LESS THAN FOUR DAYS.
79% OF PLANNED PARENTHOOD
SURGICAL ABORTION FACILITIES
ARE INTENTIONALLY PLACED
WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE OF
MINORITY NEIGHBORHOODS.
Lee: EARLIER THIS YEAR
BLACK LEADERS PLEDGED TO
FIND NEW STRATEGIES TO
SPREAD THE PRO-LIFE MESSAGE
TO THEIR COMMUNITIES.
THAT WAS SOME STRONG
RHETORIC YOU JUST HEARD
THERE, PAT.
Pat: IT IS AMAZING.
THE PEOPLE ARE SAYING THAT
THE LAWSUIT AGAINST GOSNELL
IS RACIALLY INSPIRED.
AND THESE BLACK LEADERS, GOD
BLESS THEM FOR SPEAKING THE
TRUTH.
WITHOUT QUESTION, IF YOU
READ THE WRITINGS OF
MARGARET SINGER, WHO IS THE
FOUNDER OF PLANNED
PARENTHOOD, SHE SAID THE
BLACK PEOPLE ARE INFERIOR
AND THEY SHOULD BE
STERILIZED.
THAT WAS HER THOUGHT.
AND THEY SAID LET'S FIND A
PROMINENT BLACK LEADER, WHO
WILL BE LIKE THE BILL SHEEP,
TO CARRY THESE OTHERS INTO
THE SLAUGHTERHOUSE.
THAT'S WHAT THEIR GOAL WAS.
IT WAS ANNOUNCED BY THEIR
FOUNDER.
AND WHAT DO THEY DO?
THEY GIVE THEM THE MARTIN
LUTHER KING PRIZE, AND THEY
HAVE A BLACK LADY MADE HEAD
OF THE ORGANIZATION.
BUT THEIR GOAL WAS THE
STERILIZATION OF WHAT THEY
CALLED RACIALLY UNFIT
PEOPLE.
THAT INCLUDED, I MIGHT ADD,
EVANGELICAL CHRISTIANS.
SO I CAN'T GET OUT OF WHAT
THEY WANT TO DO.
AND IF THEY HAD THEIR GOAL,
LEE, THEY WOULD GO AFTER YOU
AND ME AND STERILIZE US.
IT'S TOO LATE.
I'VE ALREADY HAD MY
CHILDREN.
THEY CAN'T GET ME.
Kristi: THE WHOLE
ESSENCE OF THAT IS JUST
HATE, PURE HATE.
WELL, COMING UP LATER ON
"THE 700 CLUB," TERRY GETS
HER REDNECK ON WITH THE
STARS OF "DUCK DYNASTY."
SO WITH A DUCK CALL,
YOU'RE BASICALLY GOING, TEN,
TEN, TEN.
OKAY, SO THAT'S THE
WISCONSIN VERSION, ALL
RIGHT.
Kristi: STANDARD TO
STAY TUNED FOR WHAT YOU
WON'T HEAR WITH PHIL AND KAY
ROBERTSON.
BUT, FIRST, WE'RE GOING TO
TAKE YOU TO THE DEADLIEST
PLACE FOR CHRISTIANS, AND
YOU MAY BE SURPRISED TO FIND
OUT IT IS NOT IN THE MIDDLE
EAST.
WELL, LAST YEAR MORE
CHRISTIANS WERE KILLED IN
NIGERIA -- NIGERIA -- THAN
ANY OTHER COUNTRY.
AT THE HANDS OF RADICAL
MUSLIMS.
THEIR JIHAD IS STILL GOING
ON IN AFRICA'S LARGEST
COUNTRY.
AND THE PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA
JUST HAS DECLARED A STATE OF
EMERGENCY.
GARY LANE HAS MORE.
Reporter: BOMBINGS LIKE
THIS ONE GAVE NIGERIA THE
SAD DISTINCTION OF THE
NATION WITH THE HIGHEST
CHRISTIAN DEATH TOLL.
MORE THAN 900 CHRISTIANS
REPORTEDLY WERE KILLED IN
NIGERIA LAST YEAR.
VICTIMS OF THE BOKO HARAM
TERRORIST GROUP AND OTHER
ISLAMIC MILITANTS.
THEY ARE SO RADICAL THAT
THEY DO NOT EVEN SPARE
MUSLIMS.
IF MUSLIMS ARE SYMPATHETIC
TO ANY CAUSE AT ALL, IF THEY
ARE SYMPATHETIC TO THE
CHRISTIANS' CAUSE OR THE
MINORITIES' CAUSE, THEY ARE
ALSO TERMED AS IN FIDDLES.
Reporter: IN 2013,
RADICALS HAVE KILLED MORE
THAN 120 NIGERIANS, MOSTLY
CHRISTIANS.
THERE APPEARS TO BE A NEW
RESIDENCE, A NEW ISLAMIC
RESIDENCE.
ROW BECAUSE OF THIS WAVE OF
VIOLENCE, VARIOUS GROUPS IN
SOUTHERN NIGERIA ARE TAKING
UP ARMS TO PROTECT THE
CHRISTIANS.
THIS ATTORNEY WARNS, THE
COUNTRY MAY BE ON THE BRINK
OF A MASSIVE EXPLOSION.
THERE IS NO COUNTRY THAT
IS AS RICH AND READY FOR A
RELIGIOUS WAR.
ALL OF THE ELEMENTS, ALL OF
THE INGREDIENTS ARE THERE.
Reporter: HE SPOKE AT A
RECENT CONFERENCE SPONSORED
BY THE WASHINGTON,
D.C.-BASED JUBILEE
CAMPAIGN.
SOME ANALYSTS CRITICIZED THE
U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT'S
RELUCTANCE TO BLAME THE
VIOLENCE IN NIGERIA ON
ISLAMIC EXTREMIST.
THE ROUTE THEY ARE TAKING
IS DANGEROUS, IT IS AGAINST
AMERICAN INTERESTS, AND IT
IS NOT POSITIVE.
IT IS NOT SENSIBLE.
THE ULTIMATE AIM OF THIS
EXTREMISM IS NOT JUST TO
WIPE OUT CHRISTIANS.
Reporter: FOR YEARS
ISLAMIC MILITANTS LIMITED
THEIR ATTACKS ON CHRISTIANS
TO THE 12 NORTHERN NIGERIA
STATES, WHERE SHARI'A LAW IS
IN PLACE.
NOW THEY'RE PRESSING INTO
CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN STATES,
WHERE CHRISTIANS ARE IN THE
MAJORITY.
WORLD MAGAZINE REPORTER
MINDY BELLE SAYS THE PATTERN
IS ALL TOO FAMILIAR.
WE HAVE SEEN IT HAPPEN IN
SUDAN AND MALI AND PARTS OF
THE MIDDLE EAST AND OTHER
PARTS OF SOUTH AFRICA.
WHAT IS HAPPENING WHAT IS IS
GROWING UP IN THERE IS ALSO
THE SEEDS OF TERRORISM THAT
IS TARGETING THE WEST.
Reporter: WHAT IS THE
SOLUTION TO STOP THE ATTACKS
AGAINST CHRISTIANS AND
OTHERS.
NIGERIAN PRESIDENT GOODLUCK
JONATHAN HAS PROPOSED A
PLAN.
AND MARK LIPTO SAYS AMNESTY
WOULD BE A MISTAKE.
IT GOES TO SAY THAT A
GOVERNMENT MUST HAVE TO
SUCCUMB TO THE PRESSURE OF
TERROR, AND THEN WE SEE THAT
IT WILL GO INTO REWARD THE
PERPETRATOR TO CONTINUE TO
CARRY OUT HIS CARNAGE.
THAT IS WRONG.
THE PROBLEM HAS GONE
BEYOND MY COUNTRY.
IT HAS ITS ROOTS IN LIBYA.
IF THE BORDERS ARE NOT
SECURE, YOU HAVE NOT SOLVED
THE PROBLEM.
Reporter: LIPTO
SUGGESTS CHRISTIANS UNITED
IN PRAYER CAN MAKE A
DIFFERENCE.
WHAT WE SEE IS
DISUNANIMITDISUNITY THAT
HAS TAKEN ON A VOICE.
AVOID ALL THESE DIFFERENCES
AND COME TOGETHER, WE WILL
BE ABLE TO GIVE A VOICE TO
THE VOICELESS, AND THAT IS
WHAT WE'RE CALLED TO DO.
Reporter: GARY LANE,
CBN NEWS.
Pat: GOOD REPORT,
GARY.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, A FEW
YEARS AGO THE WORLD
EXPERIENCED PROBABLY ONE OF
ITS BLOODIEST CONFLICTS IN
NIGERIA WHEN A TRIBE CALLED
THE EBOS SET UP A STATE CALL
BIOFRA, AND THE RULING
CLASS, WHICH WERE MUSLIMS,
DECIDED THEY DIDN'T LIKE
IT.
THEY WERE JEALOUS OF THE E-EBOS BECAUSE THE EBOS WERE
SUPERIOR IN EDUCATION AND
BUSINESS ABILITIES AND SO
FORTH.
AND THERE WAS RESENTMENT, SO
THERE WAS THIS HORRIBLE
ATTEMPT TO DESTROY BEE
BEOFRA AND IT WAS A BLOODY
MESS.
BUT NIGERIA, WITH ALL OF ITS
WEALTH AND CHRISTIANS, IS
STILL A SEETHING CALD
CALDRON.
REINHARD BONNKE HAD
SOMETHING LIKE ONE MILLION
OR MORE PEOPLE WHO SIGNED
DECISION CARDS, AND THERE
WERE THREE OR FOUR MILLION
OR FIVE MILLION -- THE
NUMBERS ARE STAGGERING -- IN
ATTENDANCE IN THOSE
MEETINGS.
AND WE'VE SEEN AT CBN REALLY
TENS OF MILLIONS OF PEOPLE
ACCEPTING JESUS.
I MEAN, IT IS A TREMENDOUS
COUNTRY.
AND THEY ARE JUST SO
WONDERFUL.
BUT THIS GROUP OF RADICALS
IS GOING TO MAKE LIFE
DIFFICULT FOR THE
CHRISTIANS.
AND THE GOVERNMENT IS
PROBABLY POWERLESS TO DO
ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
IF YOU WANT TO DO SOMETHING,
SOMETHING YOU WANT TO PRAY
ABOUT, THAT IS ONE YOU
REALLY OUGHT TO BE PRAYING
FOR BECAUSE THERE ARE
INNOCENT PEOPLE BEING
SLAUGHTERED.
JUST LIKE IN BEOFRA, IT WAS
A BLOOD BATH AND WE DON'T
NEED ANYMORE OF THAT.
KRISTI, WHAT'S NEXT?
Kristi: COMING UP NEXT
ON "THE 700 CLUB," IF YOU'RE
A FAN OF "DUCK DYNASTY", YOU
KNOW WHAT MISS KAY WANTS,
MISS KAY GETS FROM HER
HUSBAND, BUT IT WASN'T
ALWAYS THAT WAY.
HE PUT US OUT OF THE
HOUSE.
ME AND THE THREE BOYS.
REMEMBER, WE'RE TALKING
THE '60s NOW, SEX, DRUGS,
AND ROCK AND ROLL.
Kristi: THEY SHOW A
SIDE YOU'VE NEVER SEEN
BEFORE, BEFORE THIS.
Kristi: WELL, YOU DON'T
HAVE TO BE A REDNECK TO LOVE
A&E's "DUCK DYNASTY."
LAST WEEK TWO OF THE SHOW'S
STARS JOINED US RIGHT HERE
IN OUR STUDIO, AND THERE WAS
STANDING ROOM ONLY.
THE PLACE WAS PACKED.
WHEN TERRY MEEUWSEN TALKED
WITH FILL AN PHIL AND KAY,
THEY WERE VERY HONEST ABOUT
THEIR HUMBLE BEGINNINGS AND
THEIR ONCE TROUBLED
MARRIAGE, BUT MOSTLY THEY
TALKED ABOUT THE FAITH THAT
TURNED THEIR LIVES AROUND.
TAKE A LOOK.
Reporter: IF YOU'VE
SEEN THE HIT REALITY SHOW
"DUCK DYNASTY", THEN YOU
KNOW WHAT MILLIONS ALREADY
DO.
I'M FACING TO GO CRAZY
REDNECK UP IN HERE.
Reporter: WHILE TIMES
ARE GOOD NOW FOR THE
ROBERTSON CLAN, LIFE WASN'T
ALWAYS --
HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY.
Reporter: PHIL AND MISS
KAY MARRIED YOUNG.
LIFE WAS TOUGH IN THOSE
DAYS, NOT JUST BECAUSE THEY
WERE POOR.
HE WASN'T JUST AWAY FROM
THE LORD, HE WAS HORRIBLY
AWAY.
AND SO HE DID A BUNCH OF
HORRIBLE THINGS THAT WERE
TERRIBLE.
FOR MY MOM TO STICK WITH HIM
THROUGH ALL OF THAT WAS
INCREDIBLE.
Reporter: WHEN "DUCK
DYNASTY" FIRST AIRED IN
2012, PRODUCERS WANTED TO
TONE DOWN THE FAMILY'S
FAITH.
MISS KAY, LISTEN TO
THIS.
I'M READING FROM 1
CORINTHIANS 7 ABOUT
MARRIAGE.
Reporter: BUT THAT'S
EXACTLY WHAT THE AUDIENCE
WANTED.
IT HAD 9.6 MILLION VIEWERS,
A SEASON RECORD.
Terry: PLEASE WELCOME
TO "THE 700 CLUB" THE
PATRIARCH AND MATRIARCH OF
"DUCK DYNASTY."
ARE YOU KIN TO OUR
ROBERTSON?
I WONDERED ABOUT THAT,
AND THEY SAID, LOOK, WE ALL
CAME FROM SCOTLAND.
SO IT'S ALL THE FOLKS HERE
TODAY.
THE ROBERTSON HAVE COME BACK
TOGETHER UP HERE IN
VIRGINIA.
Terry: THERE YOU GO.
MANY OF THE ROBERTSONS LIKE
TO DUCK HUNT.
SO I HAVE WITH ME A DUCK
CALLER.
I AM CLUELESS HOW TO DO
THIS.
WHAT DO I DO.
YOU TURN IT TO THE OTHER
END, TO START WITH.
Terry: SEE, THAT'S THE
PROBLEM.
I'M LOOKING AT THAT
PARTICULAR MODEL, AND, LOOK,
WE HAVE ALL OF THESE
DIFFERENT KINDS OF OF
DUCKS.
THIS IS ABOUT, LIKE, SIX
DIFFERENT SPECIES OF DUCK.
AND BASICALLY WHAT ALL THIS
COMES DOWN TO IS THE CONTROL
OF YOUR TONGUE.
Terry: OH, DEAR.
THIS IS THE WAY YOU HOLD
ONE, HOLD IT BETWEEN YOUR
THUMB AND INDEX FINGER, SO
TONGUE CONTROL.
SO WITH A DUCK CALL, YOU'RE
BASICALLY GOING TEN, TEN,
TEN, TEN.
TEN, TEN, TEN.
Terry: MAYBE.
LET'S SEE.
DID YOU PUT YOUR LIPS RIGHT
UP THERE.
GO AHEAD.
[LAUGHTER]
VIRGINIA HAS A LONG WAY
TO GO.
Terry: I THINK WHEN A
SOUTHERNER SAYS TEN, TEN,
TEN, IT IS DIFFERENT THAN
WHEN A NORTHERN SAYS TEN,
TEN, TEN (a
DIFFERENT PRONUNCIATION).
THAT WAS SO THRILLING TO
HEAR YOU.
LET ME HEAR YOUR DUCK CALL
AGAIN.
[DUCK CALLS]
THAT WAS KIND OF LIKE A
DUCK CAUGHT IN A TRAP.
Terry: I'LL WORK ON IT,
PHIL, FOR OUR NEXT GET
TOGETHER.
WHEN YOU STARTED DESIGNING
THESE, AND THEY CAME TO YOU
AND SAID, WE WANT TO DO A
SHOW ABOUT YOUR FAMILY, DID
YOU HAVE ANY IDEA IT WOULD
BECOME THE TOP-RATED REALITY
SHOW ON CABLE?
LOOK, I SAID, LET ME GET
THIS RIGHT, REDNECKS HUNTING
DUCKS, BUT YOU DON'T WANT TO
SEE ANY OF THEM ACTUALLY GET
SHOT -- I SAID, DO YOU ALL
REALLY THINK THIS WOULD
WORK?
THEY
INFORMED ME, AND THEY
SAID, OZZY OSBOURNE MADE IT,
AND I WAS, LIKE, THERE IS
HOPE FOR US ALL.
AND THE VOICE THAT SAID I
HAVE TO COME BACK AND SAID,
DAD, WERE YOU RIGHT?
I DIDN'T THINK IT WOULD
WORK --
TELL HIM THE REST OF WHAT
YOU SAID, YOU SAID IT WOULD
ONLY WORK IF --
THEY SAID, DAD, WHAT DO
YOU THINK.
I SAID THIS WON'T WORK,
HOWEVER, I SAID IF GOD IS
BEHIND IT, IT WILL GO ALL
THE WAY TO THE TOP.
SO I DID HAVE A LITTLE
DISCLAIMER.
I SAID IF HE IS BEHIND THIS,
NO TELLING WHERE IT WILL
GO.
I THINK THAT'S WHAT IT IS
ALL ABOUT.
I THINK THAT'S WHAT IT IS
ALL ABOUT, TOO.
Terry: WHAT IS IT DO
YOU THINK THAT DRAWS PEOPLE
TO YOUR FAMILY AND THE
VALUES THAT YOU SHARE?
I THINK IT IS WHAT THEY
TELL ME.
BECAUSE WE GO ALL OVER THE
COUNTRY NOW.
AND THEY ALWAYS SAY YOU ALL
ARE SO REAL.
WE CAN RELATE TO Y'ALL.
YOU SEEM SO SINCERE AND YOU
REALLY ARE.
AND THEY'LL JUST -- IT'S
LIKE SOMEBODY THEY CAN
IDENTIFY WITH.
THAT'S WHAT THEY TELL ME.
Terry: AND YOU HAVE
BEEN VERY HONEST ON AIR.
YOU'RE CERTAINLY HONEST IN
YOUR BOOK, "HAPPY, HAPPY,
HAPPY."
YOU TALK ABOUT IT HASN'T
ALWAYS BEEN SUNSHINE AND
ROSES.
YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN MARRIED
50 YEARS --
ALMOST.
Terry: ALMOST 50
YEARS.
AND WE HAD SOME -- IT WAS
ACTUALLY ABOUT 10 YEARS THAT
WERE REALLY, REALLY, REALLY
TOUGH.
Terry: VERY TOUGH.
HOW DID THAT TURN AROUND FOR
YOU?
MY LIFE WAS SPIRALLING
OUT OF CONTROL IN A HURRY.
YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER, WE'RE
TALKING THE '60s HERE,
SEX, DRUGS, ROCK AND ROLL,
AND JUST LET 'ER RIP.
I FINALLY CAME TO MY
SENSES.
MISS KAY WAS AFTER ME.
SHE SAID, SIT DOWN AND
LISTEN.
HE STARTED A LITTLE
EARLIER.
HE DIDN'T TELL YOU THIS PART
BECAUSE IT WAS
EMBARRASSING.
HE PUT US OUT OF THE HOUSE,
ME AND THE THREE BOYS I HAD
AT THE TIME, BECAUSE HE SAID
WE WERE TOO -- AGAIN, I
THINK HE USED THE WORD WE
WERE TOO GOODIE GOODIE AND
HOLY ROLLER AND OTHER
THINGS.
Terry: BECAUSE THE LORD
HAD STARTED TO WORK IN YOUR
LIFE?
OH, I HAD THE LORD FOR
ABOUT A YEAR AT THAT TIME.
Terry: PHIL, WHEN THAT
HAPPENED, WHEN YOU SAID YOU
GUYS HAVE TO GET OUT, YOU'RE
TOO GOODIE GOODIE.
WHAT KEPT ME THERE FOR SO
LONG IS THE FACT I WAS
RAISED MORE BY MY
GRANDMOTHER THAN MY
PARENTS.
AND HER WORDS WERE ALWAYS TO
ME ABOUT -- SHE ALWAYS
TALKED ABOUT ONE MAN, ONE
WIFE, FOR ONE LIFE.
AND SHE SAID, YOU'LL HAVE TO
FIGHT FOR YOUR MARRIAGE.
I JUST THOUGHT THAT IS
RIDICULOUS BECAUSE, NUMBER
ONE, WHEN I GET MARRIED,
WE'RE GOING TO LIVE HAPPILY
EVER AFTER, LIKE THE BOOK
SAYS, ALL OF THE BOOKS YOU
READ SAY THAT.
Terry: WE ALL THINK
THAT.
AND I FINALLY FOUND OUT
WHAT SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT.
BUT SHE SAID YOUR MARRIAGE,
NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE THINK,
IT'S WORTH FIGHTING FOR.
I WANTED TO TELL MY
GRANDMOTHER AT THIS POINT,
HE KICKED ME OUT.
I DIDN'T LEAVE.
Terry: CAN I BE DONE
NOW?
AND THE SEPARATION TIME
WAS REALLY HARD, BUT WE,
BECAUSE I WAS A CHRISTIAN
THEN, AND WHERE I WENT IS
WHERE WE WORSHIP NOW.
AND I HAD SO MANY PEOPLE
PRAYING FOR HIS SALVATION.
Terry: YOU DIDN'T
REALLY HAVE A CHANCE THERE,
MY FRIEND.
[LAUGHTER]
SO WHEN HE CAME THAT DAY
TO MY WORK, AND HE HATES FOR
ME TO TELL THIS, BUT IT WAS
THE TRUTH.
HE JUST CAME THERE, AND I
THOUGHT HE COME UP HERE AND
HE IS DRUNK, PASSED OUT ON
THE STEERING WHEEL, BUT IT
WASN'T.
WHEN HE RAISED HIS HEAD, I
DIDN'T KNOW IF HE WAS GOING
TO SHOOT ME OR WHAT WOULD
HAPPEN.
BUT HE LOOKED UP AND HE HAD
BIG TEARS IN HIS EYES, AND
HE SAID, I CAN'T EAT, I
CAN'T SLEEP, I WANT MY
FAMILY BACK.
AND THEN I THOUGHT, HE IS
JUST LIKE I WANT HIM.
BUT HE SAID, I'M NEVER GOING
TO DRINK AGAIN.
AND I SAID YOU CAN'T DO IT
BY YOURSELF.
AND I FOUND MYSELF BEING
STRONGER BECAUSE GOD WAS
TELLING ME, YOU'VE GOT TO
STAND UP HERE.
Terry: AS I READ YOUR
BOOK, PHIL, I WAS THINKING
THE PERSON THAT YOU WERE
BEFORE YOU KNEW CHRIST AND
THE PERSON THAT MISS KAY IS
DESCRIBING IS SO DIFFERENT
THAN YOU ARE TODAY.
I DON'T EVEN KNOW YOU WELL,
BUT JUST WATCHING YOU ON
YOUR PROGRAM, READING YOUR
BOOK, YOU'RE A GENTLE MAN.
IT IS LITERALLY WHAT
JESUS SAID, FROM DARKNESS TO
LIGHT.
BY THE WAY, NOW MISS KAY --
I SAID YOU'RE NOT GOING TO
RUN OUT ON ME ONE OF THESE
DAYS, ARE YOU?
SHE SAID, PHIL, LISTEN TO MY
VOICE.
I STAYED WITH YOU WHEN YOU
WERE MEAN AND WE WERE POOR.
NOW YOU'RE KIND AND WE'RE
RICH, NUMBER ONE, RICH IS
BETTER, AND I'M NOT GOING
ANYWHERE.
HE LOVES TO TELL THAT
STORY.
[LAUGHTER]
SHE SAID, I USED TO HAVE
TO PAY ALL OF THE BILLS.
I'M THE ONE THAT HAD TO
WORRY ABOUT ALL OF THAT
STUFF, YOU KNOW.
Terry: LET ME ASK YOU
THIS, BECAUSE YOU HAVE BEEN
IN A PLACE OF NEED, AND GOD
HAS BLESSED YOU MIGHTLY AS
YOU HAVE GIVEN HIM GLORY
OVER THE YEARS, BUT A LOT OF
PEOPLE WHO GET SUCCESS GET
OFF THE BEATEN PATH.
THEIR LIVES CHANGED AND THEY
GET MANAGED AND RULED BY
OTHER PEOPLE WHO DON'T SHARE
THEIR VALUES.
HOW DO YOU STAY REAL IN THE
MIDDLE OF ALL OF THAT?
WHEN YOU GET RIGHT DOWN
TO IT, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
THE RAREST OF COMMODITIES
WHEN YOU COME TO GOD.
ALL OF YOUR SINS REFUSED, IF
YOU JUST TRUST GOD AND TRY,
AND ATED END, TH AT THE
END, THE RESURRECTION OF THE
DEAD.
WHEN YOU LOOK AT IT, YOU
SAY, CAN FAME OR MONEY TOP
THE RESURRECTION OF THE
BODIES FROM THE EARTH?
I'M, LIKE, I DON'T THINK
SO.
IT IS THE OLD LOOK AT WHAT
IS OUT THERE.
YOU SAY, I RAN WITHOUT JESUS
FOR THE FIRST 28 YEARS.
AND I'VE RUN WITH JESUS FOR
THE LAST 38.
TRUST ME, THE LAST 38 HAVE
BEEN FAR BETTER.
THAT FIRST YEAR DOWN ON THE
RIVER, WHEN I WENT DOWN
THERE, I HAD A CLEAR HEAD.
WHEN I WAS CONVERTED, I
SAID, OKAY, HERE WE GO.
I SAID, LET'S SEE, I COULD
TEACH SCHOOL.
MOST PEOPLE DON'T KNOW THIS,
BUT I EARNED A MASTER'S
DEGREE IN EDUCATION.
SO I COULD HAVE TAUGHT
SCHOOL.
BUT I SAID, MISS KAY, FIND A
PLACE ON THE RIVER, AND I
SAID, I'M GOING TO FISH ON
THE RIVER, AND I CAN BEAT
TEACHING SCHOOL, AS FAR AS
MONEY, JUST FISHING ON THE
RIVER.
AND YOU SAY, SEE THIS DUCK
CALL, THERE IS NOT ANOTHER
ONE ON THIS EARTH.
I'M GOING TO PATENT THIS
THING AND WE'RE GOING TO GO
INTO BUSINESS.
THE FIRST YEAR IN THE DUCK
CALL BUSINESS, AND OR GROSS
SALES WAS $8,000.
AND I SAID, MISS KAY, WE ARE
ROLLING.
AND I SAID, WE'RE GOING
TO STARVE TO DEATH.
BUT SHE HELD THE LINE AND
STAYED THE COURSE, AND IT
STARTED OUT THE NEXT YEAR
WAS 13,500, AND THEN 22,000,
AND 37,000, AND LOOK, TODAY,
MILLIONS, SO...
Terry: YEAH.
DOING SOMETHING YOU LOVE.
IT WAS EITHER A
TREMENDOUS STROKE OF LUCK,
OR THE ALMIGHTY SAID I'LL
FILL YOUR BARNS UP, TAPPED
DOWN AND RUNNING OVER --
HERE IS WHAT I THINK THAT
TRIES TO KEEP US ON TRACK,
IS THE FACT THAT I SAID ALL
ALONG, WE NEVER FORGET WHERE
WE CAME FROM.
IF SOMETHING HAPPENED
TOMORROW WITH DEVASTATION,
AND WE WENT BACK TO THE
SHAGGY TRAILER THAT WE LIVED
IN ONE TIME, IT WOULDN'T
MATTER.
WE WOULD JUST BE FINE.
WE'D BE FINE.
BUT I WORRY MORE FOR THE
GRANDCHILDREN BECAUSE WE
HAVE TEENS NOW WHO ARE ASKED
TO GO OUT AND SPEAK, LIKE WE@?
DO, THAT ARE ON THE ROAD,
AND THAT'S JUST --
OF COURSE THEY ARE NOW
RICH KIDS.
Terry: YOU'VE GOT TO
GET THEM OUT IN THE BOAT,
PHIL.
I'M LOOKING AT THEM AND
I'M THINKING, OH, NO,
THEY'RE ACTING LIKE
YUPPIES.
[LAUGHTER]
Terry: WE ALL LOVE IT,
AND ESPECIALLY THE TIME YOUR
FAMILY GATHERS TOGETHER AT
THE END OF EACH SHOW AND
BOWS AND PRAYS.
IT IS A PRECIOUS REMINDER OF
HOW FAMILIES ARE RAISED IN
OUR COUNTRY.
IT HAS GIVEN US A NEW
INSIGHT INTO WHO GOD IS IN
YOUR LIFE AND THE JOURNEY HE
HAS HAD YOU ON.
IT HAS BEEN A FASCINATING
JOURNEY.
YOU'VE ONLY SEEN A LITTLE OF
THE IT IF YOU A WATCHED THE
SHOW.
THE BOOK IS CALLED, "HAPPY,
HAPPY, HAPPY, MY LIFE LEGACY
AS THE DUCK COMMANDER."
I WANT TO SAY, ALSO, THAT
YOUR SON, ALLEN, YOU SAID,
IS GOING TO BE JOINING YOU
IN THE NEW SEASON?
HE IS THE ONE WITHOUT
WHISKERS.
Terry: A "DUCK DYNASTY"
GUY WITHOUT WHISKERS?
HE GOT UP IN THE TRAP
THAT THE REASON GOD GAVE
MALES WHISKERS -- HERE IS
MISS KAY, NO WHISKERS -- BUT
HE GAVE US WHISKERS, AND
WHAT DO WE DO?
WE TURN AROUND AND SCRAPE
THEM OFF EVERY DAY.
THERE ARE TWO KINDS OF
PEOPLE ON PLANET EARTH WHO
DO NOT HAVE BEARDS, THAT
WOULD BE WOMEN AND YOUTH.
I AM NEITHER.
[LAUGHTER]
Terry: KAY, YOUR LIFE
IS VERY ENTERTAINING WITH
THIS GUY.
AMERICA NEEDS A BIG DOSE
OF MANHOOD.
TRUST ME.
[APPLAUSE]
[CHEERS]
Terry: WHICH MIGHT BE
ONE OF THE BIG DRAWS OF
"DUCK DYNASTY."
GROW SOME WHISKERS, SON,
AND GET OUT A LITTLE BIT.
Terry: I THINK WE'RE
GOING TO SEE A WHOLE NEW
REVOLUTION.
THERE IS NEVER A DULL
MOMENT IN MY HOUSE.
Terry: I'M SURE THAT IS
TRUE.
OR WITH HIM.
THAT'S WHY YOU MAKE SUCH A
GREAT COUPLE.
WE'RE GOING TO BE BACK WITH
MORE OF "THE 700 CLUB" RIGHT
AFTER THIS.
"HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY," GO
GET IT.
[APPLAUSE]
Terry: THANK YOU,
GUYS.
Lee: AND WELCOME BACK
TO "THE 700 CLUB."
THE AMERICAN PASTOR JAILED
IN IRAN HAS SEEN FAMILY
MEMBERS FOR THE FIRST TIME
SINCE BEING RELEASED FROM
SOLITARY CONFINEMENT.
SAEED ABEDINI WAS SENT BACK
TO THE MAIN PRISON
RECENTLY.
FELLOW PRISONERS SAY HE WAS
GLOWING WHEN HE EMERGED.
THE PASTOR SAID HE COULD
FEEL MANY PRAYING, AND THAT
IT WAS A TIME OF INTIMACY
WITH GOD.
HIS WIFE, NAGMA, HAS BEEN
UNABLE TO SEE HIM BECAUSE
SHE IS HERE IN THE U.S.,
STILL FIGHTING FOR HIM TO BE
RELEASED.
PASTOR SAEED ABEDINI IS
BEING HELD IN THE BRUTAL
EVAN PRISON IN IRAN SIMPLY
BECAUSE OF THIS CHRISTIAN
FAITH.
VERMONT LAWMAKERS PASSED A
BILL DECRIMINALIZING
POSSESSION OF UP TO AN OUNCE
OF MARIJUANA.
THAT MEANS THAT FIRST TIME
MISDEMEANOR OFFENSES WILL NO
LONGER RESULT IN JAIL TIME.
INSTEAD A $300 CRIME.
SHUMLAN SAYS THE REFORMS
WILL ALLOW THE COURTS AND
LAW ENFORCEMENT TO FOCUS
THEIR RESOURCES ELSEWHERE.
YOU CAN ALWAYS GET THE
LATEST FROM CBN NEWS BY
GOING TO OUR WEBSITE AT
CBNNEWS.COM.
PAT AND KRISTI WILL BE BACK
WITH MORE OF "THE 700 CLUB"
AFTER THIS.
.
Kristi: WELL, WE'RE
BACK AND IT IS TIME TO
"BRING IT ON" WITH YOUR
E-MAIL QUESTIONS.
MAR JADE SAYS, "WHAT IS A
FUNDAMENTALIST?"
Pat: IT GOES BACK TO
THE 1920s WHEN A GUY NAMED
GRETCHEN MAYSHON, A
PROFESSOR, I BELIEVE, AT
PRINCETON, WAS DESCRIBING
WHAT THEY WERE, AND THIS IS
SOMEBODY WHO ADHERES TO THE
FUNDAMENTALS OF THE FAITH.
AND AS OPPOSED TO THE
LIBERALS, THOSE WHO DEPARTED
FROM THE FAITH AND BEGAN TO
PLAY GAMES WITH THE BIBLE.
SO THE FUNDAMENTALISTS, BY
THAT DEFINITION -- BUT IT
HAS BECOME A TERM OF
APROBRIUM, SOMEBODY
DESCRIBED AS A
FUNDAMENTALIST MEANS THEY'RE
HARD-NOSED AND ALL OF THOSE
OTHER NASTY TERMS.
BUT THAT'S WHERE IT STARTED,
THOSE WHO ADHERE TO THE
FUNDAMENTALS OF THE
CHRISTIAN FAITH.
Kristi: BRUCE SAYS, "I
WOULD LIKE TO KNOW YOUR TAKE
ON HOW TO EFFECTIVELY BREAK
THE GENERATIONAL CURSES,
THAT MY CHILDREN AND
GRANDCHILDREN WILL BE
RECIPIENTS OF GOD'S
BLESSING."
Pat: YOU'VE GOT TO KNOW
THERE IS A GENERATIONAL
CURSE.
I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU KNOW
IT, BUT THERE HAS TO BE
SOMEWHERE SOMEBODY
PRACTICING WITCHCRAFT,
SOMEBODY INVOLVED IN THE
OCCULT, SOMEBODY WHO
COMMITTED MURDER.
THERE ARE A LOT OF NASTY
THINGS THAT HAPPENED WITH
GRANDPARENTS AND GREAT
GRANDPARENTS AND IT GOES
DOWN THE LINE.
THE WAY YOU PRAY AGAINST IT
IS YOU BIND THE SPIRIT THAT
CAUSED IT AND YOU REBUKE
IT.
AND YOU SAY, WE RENOUNCE
THIS GENERATIONAL CURSE THAT
IS UPON US.
WE SPECIFICALLY ASK GOD'S
FORGIVENESS FOR THE SIN THAT
WAS PERPETRATED BY THE GUY
WHO WAS INVOLVED IN THE
OCCULT OR WHATEVER.
I DON'T KNOW THAT YOU NEED A
GENERATIONAL CURSE -- I
DON'T KNOW HOW YOU GOT IT.
Kristi: IVY WRITES IN
AND AS, "I'VE BEEN TRYING TO
FORGIVE MY HUSBAND FOR
CHEATING ON ME.
WE HAVE GONE TO COUNSELLING,
BUT I JUST CAN'T SEEM TO
FORGIVE, NOR CAN I TRUST.
GOD SAYS TO FORGIVE, BUT IT
HAS BEEN SO HARD TO DO.
I WANT TO FORGIVE SO WE CAN
GET ON WITH OUR LIVES?"
Pat: SO WHAT DO YOU
THINK?
WELL, THAT'S A GOOD
QUESTION.
I THINK FORGIVENESS CAN BE
ONE OF THE MOST DIFFICULT
THINGS IN THE WHOLE WIDE
WORLD TO DO, AND ESPECIALLY
WHEN IT COMES TO A SPOUSE,
BECAUSE THAT'S ONE OF THE
ULTIMATE BETRAYALS.
Pat: HERE IS THE
SECRET -- AND HERE IS THE
SECRET: STOP TALKING ABOUT
THE CHEATING.
HE CHEATED ON YOU.
WELL, HE'S A MAN.
WHAT YOU DO IS BEGIN TO
FOCUS ON WHY YOU MARRIED HIM
IN THE FIRST PLACE, ON WHAT
HE DOES GOOD.
DOES HE PROVIDE A HOME FOR
YOU TO LIVE IN?
DOES HE PROVIDE FOOD FOR YOU
TO EAT?
DOES HE PROVIDE CLOTHES FOR
YOU TO WEAR?
IS HE NICE TO THE CHILDREN?
DO YOU HAVE A HAPPY FAMILY?
DOES HE TAKE THE KIDS TO
SPORTING EVENTS?
DOES HE GO OUT AND WATCH
THEIR LITTLE LEAGUE GAMES?
DOES HE SHARE WITH YOU STUFF
THAT IS GOING ON?
IS HE HANDSOME?
WHAT IS IT?
START FOCUSING ON THOSE
THINGS AND ESSENTIALLY FALL
IN LOVE WITH HIM ALL OVER
AGAIN.
I RECOMMEND THAT YOU REACH
OUT AND TOUCH HIM.
TOUCH HIS FACE.
TOUCH HIS FACE.
HOLD HIS HAND.
LOOK INTO HIS EYES.
TALK TO HIM.
BUT YOU'RE PRAYING, OH, GOD,
KEEP ME NOT TO HATE HIM FOR
WHAT HE DID WHEN HE WAS WITH
THAT STRIPPER IN THAT HOTEL
ROOM 10 YEARS AGO, AND I'LL
NEVER FORGIVE HIM KIND OF
THING, AND PLEASE HELP ME.
SO WHAT ARE YOU FOCUSING
ON?
YOU'RE FOCUSING ON THE THING
THAT MAKES YOU MAD.
STOP THAT AND START FOCUSING
ON THE GOOD STUFF.
HE MUST HAVE SOMETHING GOOD
OR YOU WOULDN'T HAVE MARRIED
HIM.
THINK ABOUT THOSE THINGS.
AND GIVE HIM HONOR INSTEAD
OF TRYING TO WORRY ABOUT
IT.
BUT RECOGNIZE ALSO, LIKE IT
OR NOT, MALES HAVE A
TENDENCY TO WANDER A LITTLE
BIT.
WHAT YOU WANT TO DO IS MAKE
A HOME SO WONDERFUL HE
DOESN'T WANT TO WANDER.
THINK OF THE TEMPTATIONS
THAT ARE OUT THERE.
THE INTERNET IS FILLED WITH
PORNOGRAPHY.
THE MAGAZINES ARE FILLED
WITH SALACIOUS PICTURES OF
WOMEN.
ANYWHERE YOU TURN AROUND,
THERE IS SOME SOLICITATION
TO THE SENSES TO ENTICE A
MAN.
AND SO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO
IS SAY MY HUSBAND WAS
CAPTURED.
AND I WANT TO GET HIM FREE.
BUT REACH OUT AND THINK OF
THE GOOD STUFF.
AND THEN BEGIN TO THANK GOD
THAT YOU HAVE A MARRIAGE
THAT IS TOGETHER, AND THAT,
YOU KNOW, YOU LIVE IN
AMERICA AND GOOD THINGS ARE
HAPPENING.
NEXT QUESTION.
Kristi: GUS RIGHTS IN
AND SAYS, "WHEN THE RAPTURE
HAPPENS AND PEOPLE ARE LEFT,
WILL THEY HAVE A CHANCE OF
GOING TO HEAVEN?"
Pat: FIRST OF ALL, YOUR
ESKOTOLOGY IS IN HE ERROR.
AIRPLANES ARE GOING TO CRASH
BECAUSE THE PILOT GOT CAUGHT
UP IN HEAVEN, AND THE TRAINS
ARE GOING OFF THE TRACKS,
AND PEOPLE ARE GOING TO
SMASH SMOO CAR INTO CARS
AND IT IS GOING TO BE
CHAOS -- THAT'S NOT GOING TO
HAPPEN.
WHEN JESUS COMES BACK TO
EARTH AND THE SAINTS ARE
WITH HIM, THOSE ARE WITH HIM
WILL BE CAUGHT UP IN THE
AIR.
HE IS COMING DOWN TO EARTH
TO TAKE CHARGE OF THINGS.
HE IS NOT GOING TO ALLOW IT
TO BE IN CHAOS.
AND THAT WILL BE THE END.
AND THEN THERE WILL BE A
JUDGMENT OF THOSE WHO ARE
HERE.
YOU SAY, WILL THERE BE
ANYMORE ATTEMPTS?
I DON'T THINK SO.
I THINK PEOPLE HAVE THEIR
CHANCES RIGHT NOW.
THAT'S WHAT IS GOING TO
HAPPEN, THE RAPTURE.
I THINK PEOPLE ARE MISTAKING
THIS IDEA THERE IS GOING TO
BE A SECRET CATCHING AWAY,
AND THEN THERE IS A GOING TO
BE A TRIBULATION AND ALL OF
THIS STUFF.
THAT'S NOT WHAT THE BIBLE
TEACHES.
Kristi: PAULA SAYS,
"RECENTLY A FELLOW CHRISTIAN
CONFIDED IN ME THAT SHE
TALKS TO SPIRITS TO TESTER
THEM.
TEST THEM.
SHE RECENTLY PRAYED FOR ME
AND TURNED AWAY AND TALKED
TO SPIRITS.
QUITE FRANKLY, I FIND HER
ACTIONS SCARY.
WHERE IN THE BIBLE DOES IT
SAY TO TALK TO SPIRITS?"
Pat: IT DOESN'T.
IN A DEMON-POSSESSED MAN,
THEY GO INTO SOME PIGS, BUT
WE'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO TALK
TO DEMONS.
YOU TEST THE SPIRITS, BUT
YOU DON'T DO IT BY TALKING
TO THEM.
ANYBODY WHO THINKS THEY'RE
GOING TO TALK TO SPIRITS,
BELIEVE ME, THE SPIRITS ARE
GOING TO GET THE BEST OF
YOU.
DON'T TRY TO DO IT.
IT'S NOT BIBLICAL, IN MY
OPINION.
ALTHOUGH THERE ARE INSTANCES
WHERE DEMONS TALKED, A
DONKEY TALKED -- PEOPLE
TALK, BUT THAT'S NOT IT.
SO KRISTI WILL TAKE IT FROM
THERE.
Kristi: YOU MAY NOT
KNOW THIS, BUT CBN PROGRAMS
ARE BROADCAST IN OVER 100
COUNTRIES, AND 90% OF OUR
AUDIENCE COMES FROM
OVERSEAS.
HERE IS HOW A MIRACLE
HAPPENED WHEN A CHILD FROM
BENINE WATCHED "THE 700
CLUB" FOR THE VERY FIRST
TIME.
Reporter: FOR
9-YEAR-OLD COMLAN, JUST
GETTING FROM PLACE TO PLACE
HAS ALWAYS BEEN A
CHALLENGE.
THE BOY'S RIGHT LEG HAS BEEN
PARALYZED AND APPROACH IN A
BENT POSITION AT THE KNEE
SINCE BIRTH.
WHEN I WALKED ON THE
CRUTCHES THAT MY DAD GAVE
ME, I HAD TO WRAP MY LEG
AROUND IT AND MUCHO VER AND
MOVE VERY SLOWLY.
Reporter: BUT WATCHING
OTHER KIDS RUN AND PLAY WAS
THE HARDEST THING FOR HIM.
I WOULD STAND SOMETIMES
AND WATCH THEM RUN OR PLAY
SOCCER.
I HAVE NEVER BEEN@w ABLE TO@w@w
PLAY SOCCER MY WHOLE LIFE.@w@w
Reporter: AFTER HIS
MOTHER'S@w DAY, COMLAN'S
FATHER HAS BEEN RAISING HIS
SON ALONE.
THE BOY HELPS HIS DAD WITH A
FEW CHORES, BUT FEELS BAD HE
CAN'T DO MORE.
I WASH THE DISHES AND SWEEP
THE FLOORS.
Reporter: COMLAN'S
FATHER WORKS AS A LABORER,
SO THERE HAS NEVER BEEN
ENOUGH MONEY FOR DOCTORS OR
HOSPITALS.
ONE DAY A CBN-SUPPORTED
EVANGELIST WAS SHOWING THE
CBN PROGRAM IN THEIR SMALL
TOWN.
COMLAN'S FATHER CARRIED HIM
ALL THE WAY THERE SO THEY
COULD WATCH.
I PUT THE BOY DOWN NEXT
TO ME AND WE STARTED TO
WATCH.
PAT ROBERTSON STARTED TO
PRAY, AND SO WE PRAYED,
TOO.
A FEW MINUTES LATER, COMLAN
STARTED TAPPING MY LEG.
DADDY, HE SAID, LOOK.
MY SON WAS STRETCHING OUT
HIS LEG.
HE HAD NEVER DONE THAT
BEFORE.
Reporter: THEN COMLAN
STOOD UP ON BOTH FEET.
AFTER ONLY ONE HESITATING
STEP, THE BOY WHO COULD
NEVER EVEN PUT WEIGHT ON THE
LEG BEGAN TO WALK.
THE CROWD GOT EXCITED WHEN
THEY REALIZED WHAT HAD
HAPPENED.
THAT DAY COMLAN, HIS FATHER,
AND 50 OTHERS PRAYED TO
BECOME CHRISTIANS.
IT'S NOW BEEN A YEAR SINCE
THAT MIRACLE, AND COMLAN HAS
HAD NO TROUBLE WALKING OR
RUNNING.
TO HELP HIM CELEBRATE, WE
GAVE HIM HIS FIRST SOCCER
BALL.
HE KNEW RIGHT AWAY WHAT TO
DO WITH IT.
I HAVE SEEN MANY PEOPLE
WHO CANNOT WALK, BUT JESUS
MADE ME WALK.
I AM SO HAPPY.
Reporter: AND NOW WHEN
"THE 700 CLUB" COMES TO TOWN
SHOWING THE "THE 700 CLUB"
SHOW, ROBERT AND HIS SON ARE
QUICK TO INVITE OTHERS TO
WATCH IT.
I SAY THANK YOU TO THEM,
AND PRAY THAT GOD WILL
REWARD THEM.
I AM VERY THANKFUL TO YOU
FOR THIS PROGRAM.
Kristi: IT IS AMAZING.
WE CANNOT PUT GOD IN A BOX.
GOD TRANSCENDS TIME.
HE TRANSCENDS TAPE.
HE TRANSCENDS EVERYTHING.
THAT WAS A TAPE THAT THAT
LITTLE BOY WAS HEALED FROM.
BUT GOD KNEW WHAT WAS GOING
TO HAPPEN BEFORE.
WHATEVER YOUR PRAYING, KNOW
THAT GOD IS TRUE.
HE IS TRUE TO HIS WORD, AND
HE IS REAL.
JUST THAT SHOW, "THE 700
CLUB," BECAUSE THAT WAS
AVAILABLE, GOD USED THAT TO
HEAL HIM.
SO THAT'S WHY WE'VE GOT TO
CONTINUE TO MAKE SURE WE CAN
BE HERE FOR THE GOSPEL.
JOIN US AND PARTNER WITH
US.
IT IS 1-800-759-0700.
YOU CAN ALWAYS LOG ON TO
CBN.COM.
WHEN YOU DO, EVERY MONTH WE
WANT TO GIVE YOU THIS
TEACHING C.D., "POWER FOR
LIFE."
SO CALL US OR LOG ON TO
CBN.COM.
Pat: THANK YOU.
TOMORROW, MEET THE EX-ANGEL
WHO WALKED AWAY FROM
VICTORIA'S SECRET.
WE LEAVE YOU WITH THESE
WORDS FROM THE PSALMS: "O
LORD, MY GOD, I CRIED OUT TO
YOU AND YOU HEALED ME."
WE'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW.
BYE-BYE.
