CASE FOR AN ISLAMIC
ANTI-CHRIST.
> PLUS...FROM
MISS AMERICA TO THE ANCHOR
DESK.
GRETCHEN CARLSON SHARES
THE REAL STORY OF HER
LIFE.

EXCRUCIATING PAIN.
Wendy:
> -- A BAD FALL
AND A BROKEN NECK, WATCH
HER WALK AGAIN.
HE HAS JUST BLESSED ME
SO MUCH.
Wendy: ON TODAY'S
"700 CLUB."
Pat: HEY, WE'RE
DRIETED TO HAVDELIGHTED TO HAVE YOU WITH
US.
PEOPLE ALWAYS SAY, WHAT
ABOUT THIS ANTI-CHRIST
PERSON?
IS HE A ROMAN?
IS HE AN ITALIAN?
IS HE A GERMAN?
OR IS HE A MUSLIM?
WE'LL TALK ABOUT THAT.
AND WE'LL MEET A VERY
CHARMING LADY, WHO WAS A
MISS AMERICA, WHO WILL
INTERVIEWED BY OUR
MISS AMERICA, TERRY
MEEUWSEN.
IN THE NEWS, MORE THAN
16,000 FIGHTERS FROM 90
COUNTRIES ARE RACING TO
JOIN ISIS.
TODAY THREE BRITISH
SISTERS MAY HAVE TAKEN
THEIR NINE LITTLE
CHILDREN, SOME AS YOUNG AS
JUST THREE YEARS OLD, TO
JOIN THE ISLAMIC
CALIPHATE.
Terry: WELL, ANOTHER
BRITISH CITIZEN, THIS ONE
A TEENAGER, BECAME THE
YOUNGEST SUICIDE BOMBER
FOR THE GROUP.
AND EVEN HERE IN VIRGINIA,
A TEEN PLEADED GUILTY FOR
RECRUITING FOR ISIS.
HEATHER SELLS HAS THE
LATEST.
Heather: IN NORTHERN
VIRGINIA, A 17-YEAR-OLD
HONOR STUDENT, ALI AMIN,
FACES UP TO 15 YEARS
BEHIND BARS FOR HELPING
OTHER TEEN TO JOIN ISIS.
HE RECRUITED MORE THAN
4,000 FOLLOWERS ON THIS
TWITTER ACCOUNT.
Reporter: IN BRITAIN,
THE IN FAMILY IS SHOCKED BY
THE REPORTED SUICIDE
KILLING OF THEIR SON FOR
IRAQ.
THE FACT THAT THESE
YOUNGSTERS ARE STILL GOING
OVER THERE I FIND REALLY
ALARMING.
TO FIGHT FOR SUCH AN
ORGANIZATION AS THAT.
ONCE THEY'RE THERE, THEY
ARE SWEPT UP INTO THIS.
IT IS EASY TO BRAINWASH
THEM.
Heather: SO WHAT
DRAWS THESE YOUNG PEOPLE
TO JOIN ISIS AND OTHER
MILITANT ISLAMIC GROUPS?
RECRUITS ARE PROMISED A
GLORIOUS AFTER LIFE, AS
WELL AS A SINCE OF
PURPOSE, CAMARADERIE AND
BELONGING IN THIS LIFE.
WHEN YOU REPEAT EVERY DAY
TO YOUNG 16-YEAR-OLDS OR
18-YEAR-OLDS THAT JIHAD IS
BEST AND YOU WILL GET INTO
PARADISE, THESE CHILDREN
THINK IT IS RIGHT.
MUHAMMAD LOOKS AT PICTURES
OF THE SON HE SAYS HE'LL
NEVER SEE AGAIN, A BOY WHO
SUDDENLY TOOK UP WITH ISIS
WITH ONLY A QUICK GOOD-BYE
OVER THE PHONE.
ON HIS WAY TO SYRIA, HE
CALLED HIS SISTER FROM
TURKEY AND SAID, I LOVE
YOU.
I LOVE MAMA.
I LOVE PAPA.
BUT I'M GOING TO SYRIA.
Reporter: THIS
20-YEAR-OLD WAS NORMAL,
GROWING UP IN THE
NETHERLANDS, INTERESTED IN
GIRLS AND DISCOS, UNTIL HE
WAS WOOED BY EXTREMIST
RECRUITERS.
THEY KNOW EXACTLY WHO
THEIR PREY IS.
THEY PICK ON THE EASIEST
PREY.
Reporter: IT IS
ESTIMATED AS MANY AS 15%
OF THE RECRUITS ARE KILLED
IN BATTLE, AND THOSE WHO
RETURN WILL COME BACK
HARDENED BY FIGHTING AND
TRAINED FOR WAR.
I DON'T GET THE SAME
SON AS BEFORE.
I GET A TOTALLY DIFFERENT
SON BACK.
MY SON MAY BE ABLE TO MAKE
BOMBS NOW, MAYBE HE CAN
SHOOT.
Reporter: RAISING THE
FEAR THAT THE RETURNING
RECRUITS WILL CARRY THE
JIHAD TO THEIR OM HOME
COUNTRIES.
HEATHER SELLS, CBN NEWS.
Pat: WELL, THAT'S THE
WAY IT IS.
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, IF
THEY DON'T HAVE ANY FAITH
TO BELIEVE IN, IT IS SO
EASY TO WIN THEM TO
SOMETHING ELSE.
KIDS ARE IDEALISTIC.
THEY WANT A FAITH TO
BELIEVE IN, A CAUSE TO
FIGHT FOR.
THEY WANT SOMETHING THAT
SINGS IN THEIR HEART.
AND IF WESTERN
CIVILIZATION AND ALL OF
ITS TINSEL DOESN'T APPEAL
TO THEM, THEN WHAT IS
LEFT?
WELL, HERE IS YOUR CHANCE
TO REACH PARADISE AND GET
72 VIRGINS IN THE PROCESS.
IT IS NOT ALL BAD NEWS ON
THE TERROR FRONT.
THE U.S. HAS ELIMINATED
al-QAEDA'S SECOND IN
COMMAND.
AN AIRSTRIKE TOOK HIM OUT.
JOHN JESSUP HAS MORE ON
THAT STORY FROM OUR OWN
CBN NEWS BUREAU IN
WASHINGTON.
John: PAT, THAT'S
RIGHT.
al-QAEDA IS CONFIRMING
ITS NUMBER TWO LEADER HAS
BEEN KILLED IN YEMEN.
THE TERROR GROUP ISSUING A
VIDEO STATEMENT THAT ITS
WAR ON AMERICA WILL
CONTINUE, DESPITE THE
DEATH OF AFIR al-WA
HISHI.
THE DEATH IS CONSIDERED
THE HARSHEST BLOW SINCE
OSAMA BIN LADEN WAS KILLED
FOUR YEARS AGO.
HE ONCE SERVED AS BIN
LADEN'S PERSONAL
SECRETARY, AND HE OVERSAW
al-QAEDA'S YEMEN GROUP.
> TEXAS IS BRACING FOR
MORE FLOODING AS TROPICAL
STORM BILL BEARS DOWN.
PARTS OF HOUSTON ARE UNDER
WATER FROM RECENT
FLOODING, EVEN BEFORE THE
RAIN BEGINS.
ROAD CREWS ARE OUT IN
FORCE, HOPING TO PREVENT
MORE FLOODING LIKE THE
DISASTER THAT UNFOLDED ON
MEMORIAL DAY.
THEY'RE CHECKING PUMPS AND
BARRICADING TROUBLE SPOTS
TO KEEP DRIVERS FROM
GETTING TRAPPED.
RESIDENTS ARE MAKING
PLANS, TOO.
SOME CHOOSING TO STAY HOME
FROM WORK TO AVOID
POTENTIAL PROBLEMS.
> THE TERRIFYING SHARK
ATTACKS THIS WEEKEND IN
NORTH CAROLINA ARE
REMINDING PEOPLE THAT
SWIMMING SEASON COULD ALSO
MEAN SHARK SEASON.
TWO TEENAGERS LOST LIMBS.
THE ATTACKS OCCURRING
WITHIN 90 MINUTES OF EACH
OTHER.
NOW FEARS ARE SPREADING TO
OTHER STATES.
LAST WEEK A BOY WAS BITTEN
BY A SHARK IN COCOA BEACH,
FLORIDA.
AND TAKE A LOOK AT THIS
VIDEO, TWO SHARKS SPOTTED
AT WAVE LAND BEACH,
FLORIDA.
> WELL, ONE OF THE MOST
INFLUENTIAL CHRISTIAN
WOMEN OF OUR TIMES HAS
DIED.
MISSIONARY AND AUTHOR
ELIZABETH ELLIOT PASSED
AWAY AT THE AGE OF 88.
HER WORDS, BOOKS, AND
RADIO BROADCASTS TOUCHED
THE LIVES OF MILLIONS.
BUT AS WENDY GRIFFITH
REPORTS, THE PEOPLE WHO
KNEW HER SAY THOSE AREN'T
THE THINGS BY WHICH SHE
WANTED TO BE REMEMBERED.
YOU ARE LOVED WITH AN
EVERLASTING LOVE.
THAT'S WHAT THE BIBLE
SAYS.
SHE LOVED WORDS AND SHE
LOVED COMMUNICATION.
WITH ME, SHE WAS AUNT
BETTY, AND I WAS LITTLE
STEVIE BOY.
I LOVED HER DEEPLY.
Wendy: STEVE SAINT IS
THE SON OF ONE OF THE
OTHER MISSIONARIES KILLED
WITH ELLIOT'S HUSBAND,
JIM, DURING THEIR TIME
WITH THE ECUADORIAN
INDIANS BACK IN THE 1950S.
HE SAYS WHILE ELLIOT WAS
WELL-KNOWN FOR MANY
THINGS, IT IS HABRFAITH HER FAITH
THAT PEOPLE SHOULD
REMEMBER.
I'M VERY SURE SHE WOULD
NOT WANT TO BE REMEMBERED
AS A GREAT WRITER OR
SPEAKER.
SHE WOULD WANT TO BE
REMEMBERED AS A GIRL, A
WOMAN, WHO TRUSTED GOD TO
USE HER, AND HE DID,
POWERFULLY.
Wendy: JANET WISMAR
WOULD AGREE.
SHE FOUNDED AND WAS THE
FIRST PRODUCER OF ELLIOT'S
RADIO PROGRAM "GATEWAY TO
JOY."
SHE REMEMBERS HOW THEIR
RELATIONSHIP STARTED.
I WROTE HER A LETTER
WHEN I WAS A SILLY
21-YEAR-OLD, HAVING READ
HER BOOK, "LET ME BE A
WOMAN."
AND SHE ANSWERED.
WITHIN A WEEK I HAD A
POSTCARD FROM HER.
AND THAT JUST SPOKE
VOLUMES TO ME.
SHE TOOK A PERSONAL
INTEREST IN EVERYONE THAT
SHE MET.
Wendy: GOD USED THE
DEATH OF ELLIOT'S HUSBAND
AND HIS FRIENDS TO REACH
MILLIONS.
SHE WROTE SEVERAL
BEST-SELLING BOOKS ABOUT
THEIR STORY AND THOSE OF
HER AND OTHER WIVES WHO
LATER LIVED AMONG THE
TRIBE THAT KILLED THEIR
HUSBANDS, IN ORDER TO
TRANSLATE THE BIBLE AND
BRING THEM THE GOSPEL.
SHE WAS ALSO KNOWN FOR HER
BOOKS AND TEACHINGS ON
CHRISTIAN PRINCIPLES,
RELATIONSHIPS, MASCULINITY
AND FEMININITY, WITH AN
EMPHASIS OF LORDSHIP AND
OBEDIENCE.
IT WAS A MESSAGE SHE OFTEN
REPEATED ON HER RADIO
PROGRAM.
LET GOD BE GOD.
WE SO OFTEN THINK WE ARE
IN CONTROL, AND THEN WHEN
THINGS ARE OUT OF CONTROL,
WE ARE REMINDED THAT WE
NEVER WERE IN CONTROL IN
THE FIRST PLACE.
Wendy: IT WAS
SOMETHING SHE APPLIED
THROUGHOUT HER LIFE,
INCLUDING HER FINAL YEARS,
WHEN SHE WAS DIAGNOSED
WITH DEMENTIA.
AN ILLNESS HER FAMILY SAYS
SHE ACCEPTED.
KNOWING IT CAME AS NO
SURPRISE TO THE LORD IN
WHOM SHE TRUSTED.
AND UNDERNEATH ARE THE
EVERLASTING ARMS.
THIS IS YOUR FRIEND,
ELIZABETH ELLIOT.
Efrem: PAT, ELLIOT IS
BEING HELD AS A CHRISTIAN
PIONEER.
Pat: JIM ELLIOT
GRADUATED FROM WHEATON
COLLEGE AND WENT OUT THERE
AND SAID, IT IS NO FOOL
WHO WOULD TRADE WHAT HE
COULD NEVER LOSE FOR WHAT
HE COULD NEVER GAIN.
THEY SURRENDERED THEIR
LIVES SO THOSE INDIANS IN
THE ECUADORIAN JUNGLES
WOULD COME TO JESUS, AND
THEY ALL GOT MARTYRED DOWN
THERE.
THAT STARTED SOMETHING.
THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW,
ELIZABETH ELLIOT AND SOME
OTHERS WERE LIVING WITH
THEM AND LEADING THEM TO
THE LORD.
WE HAD ONE OF THEM HERE ON
THIS PROGRAM, AND HE WAS
JUST SO EXCITED ABOUT
KNOWING THE LORD.
THEY SUSPECTED THE WHITE
PEOPLE.
THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE
BRINGING THEM DISEASES AND
WERE GOING TO TAKE THEM
AND KILL THEM AND ELITE
THEM.
EAT
THEM.
IT WAS JUST AWFUL.
BUT THEY WENT DOWN THERE
UNARMED AND WITHOUT ANY
SUPPORT EXCEPT THE LORD.
AND THEIR SACRIFICE LED TO
A HUGE INFLUX OF
MISSIONARY WORK AROUND THE
WORLD.
ELIZABETH ELLIOT, AN
AMAZING WOMAN.
SHE WAS HERE ON THE SHOW
SOME YEARS AGO, VERY
CHARMING AND REGAL IN HER
DEMEANOR.
TERRY?
Terry: MANY MUSLIMS
BELIEVE THAT AN ISLAMIC
SAVIOR IS GOING TO ARRIVE
ON EARTH AND USHER IN THE
END TIMES.
HE IS KNOWN AS THE MAHDI,
BUT SOME CHRISTIANS HAVE A
DIFFERENT NAME FOR HIM:
THE ANTI-CHRIST.
FIND OUT WHY.
THAT'S NEXT.
Pat: WELCOME BACK.
YOU'RE WATCHING "THE 700
CLUB."
AND I WANT TO TELL YOU
ABOUT PROPHECY.
MANY PEOPLE ARE CONCERNED
ABOUT IT.
I DON'T SPEND A LOT OF
TIME ON IT, BUT,
NEVERTHELESS, IT IS
FOREFRONT IN MANY PEOPLE'S
LIVES.
AND BOTH CHRISTIANS AND
MUSLIMS BELIEVE IN THE
IDEA OF END TIMES.
CHRISTIANS ARE LOOKING FOR
THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS
CHRIST.
BUT MUSLIMS HAVE A VERY
DIFFERENT IDEA OF HOW THE
LAST DAYS WILL PLAY OUT.
TAKE A LOOK.
Reporter: MILLIONS OF
MUSLIMS AROUND THE WORLD
ARE AWAITING THE
APPEARANCE OF AN ISLAMIC
MESSIAH, KNOWN AS THE
MAHDI OR THE 12th IMAM.
VARIOUS BRANCHES OF ISLAM
HAVE DIFFERING BELIEFS
ABOUT THE MAHDI.
SHI'ITE MUSLIMS BELIEVE
THEIR SAVIOR WAS ONCE
ALIVE BUT DISAPPEARED AND
WILL EMERGE A SECOND TIME
FROM THIS WELL, LOCATED IN
A SMALL VILLAGE IN IRAN.
SUNNI MUSLIMS ALSO BELIEVE
IN A SAVIOR, BUT THEY
BELIEVE THE MAHDI IS
MUHAMMAD'S SUCCESSOR AND
HAS YET TO COME TO WORK.
AUTHOR JOEL RICHARDSON HAS
WRITTEN SEVERAL BOOKS ON
HOW ISLAMIC BELIEFS RELATE
TO BIBLICAL PROPHECY.
HIS RESEARCH SUGGESTS THAT
THE MAHDI OF THE MUSLIMS
AND THE ANTI-CHRIST SPOKEN
IN THE BIBLE ARE THE SAME
PERSON.
IN HIS BOOK, RICHARDSON
ARGUES THAT THE
ANTI-CHRIST WILL COME FROM
THE MIDDLE EAST AND NOT
FROM EUROPE, AS HAS BEEN
WIDELY TAUGHT BY MANY
MODERN PROPHECY TEACHERS.
Pat: JOEL RICHARDSON
JOINS US RIGHT NOW.
HIS WORK IS VERY
FASCINATING.
IT IS GOOD TO HAVE YOU
WITH US.
THANKS FOR BEING HERE.
THANKS FOR HAVING ME,
PAT.
Pat: YOU'VE DONE
EXTENSIVE RESEARCH.
DO YOU SPEAK ARABIC?
NOT FLUENTLY.
JUST A LITTLE BIT.
Pat: WELL, HOW DID
YOU GET INTO ALL OF THIS
UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THE
MUSLIMS BELIEVE?
THANKS FOR ASKING.
MY HEART, FOR SO MANY
YEARS, HAS REALLY BEEN TO
REACH MUSLIMS.
SO SINCE PROBABLY THE
MID-90s, I'VE BEEN
REACHING OUT TO MUSLIMS
EVANGELISTICLY, SHARING
THE GOSPEL.
SO MOST OF MY
CONVERSATIONS ARE
THEOLOGICAL SO IT'S MORE
THAT THAN CONVERSATIONS.
Pat: THE SKOFIELD HAS
SO MANY MISCOMMUNICATIONS.
ONE OF THE THING IS THAT
THE ANTI-CHRIST HAS GOT TO
COME OUT OF ROME.
THE 38th CHAPTER OF
EZEKIEL -- TELL ME WHAT
THE GREAT FLAW IS IN
EVANGELICAL THINKING ON
THIS MATTER.
THERE IS A HANDFUL OF
THINGS.
REALLY THROUGH A
MISINTERPRETATION OF A FEW
KEY PASSAGES, PRIMARILY
DANIEL 2, AS WELL AS
DANIEL 9: 26, WHICH REFERS
TO THE PEOPLE OF THE
PRINCE TO COME, THOSE ARE
THE TWO PASSAGES THAT HAVE
BEEN MISINTERPRETED TO
CONCLUDE THAT THE
ANTI-CHRIST WOULD BE THIS
SUAVE EUROPEAN.
BUT THEY ACTUALLY DON'T
POINT TO EUROPE, BUT
RATHER THE MIDDLE EAST.
SO THAT'S WHAT I DEAL
WITH.
Pat: A LOT OF PEOPLE
STRUGGLE WITH THE 38th
CHAPTER OF EZEKIEL BECAUSE
THAT SEEMS TO SPEAK OF A
FINAL BATTLE, AND YET IT
JUST DOESN'T LOOK LIKE IT
IS A BATTLE.
MOST PEOPLE SAY, OKAY,
THAT'S ONE BATTLE.
BUT THAT'S NOT REALLY
ARMAGEDDON.
IT IS JUST ANOTHER BATTLE.
AND THEY'VE GOT ROSH, THE
PRINCE OF MISHEK AND SO
FORTH, AND THEY SAY THAT
IS RUSSIA.
THEY SAY THERE IS A
COALITION THAT COMES
AGAINST ISRAEL IN THE
LATTER DAY THAT SEEMS
RELATIVELY SPECIFIC.
TALK ABOUT THAT.
GOMER WAS SENT BY THE
EVANGELICALS, AND ROSH IS
RUSSIA, ETC.
ESSENTIALLY WHAT
HAPPENS IS YOU BEGIN WITH
THIS FALSE PREMISES THAT
THE ANTI-CHRIST WOULD BE
EUROPEAN.
AND THEN YOU COME TO THIS
PASSAGE THAT SPEAKS OF
THIS INVASION OF ISRAEL,
AND THEY'RE CLEARLY MIDDLE
EASTERN NATIONS.
THEY SAID, THIS MUST BE A
DIFFERENT INVADER, RATHER
THAN THE ANTI-CHRIST.
EZEKIEL IS TELLING THE
SAME STORY THAT ALL OF THE
OTHER PROPHETS ARE
TELLING.
Pat: LET'S GO OVER
THOSE PEOPLE.
GOMER -- I MEAN, UNDER THE
EVANGELICAL POINT OF VIEW,
THAT WOULD BE GERMANY.
YOU SAY, NO, IT'S TURKEY,
RIGHT?
ESSENTIALLY, THERE ARE
TWO METHODS OF
INTERPRETING THESE NAMES.
ONE IS WHEN YOU'RE TRYING
TO TRACE THEM GENETICALLY
THROUGH HISTORY.
SO THEY TRY TO ARGUE THAT
MISHAK IN MOSCOW.
BUT THERE IS THE
HISTORICAL GRA GRAM GRAMMATIC
CALIPERS SPECK.
IGRAMMATIC
PERSPECTIVE.
THERE IS FIVE OUT OF THE
EIGHT NAMES LISTED ARE
ACTUALLY IN TURKEY.
AND IT SAYS GOG, WHICH IS
ANOTHER NAME FOR THE
ANTI-CHRIST, IS THE LEADER
OF TURKEY.
THE BIBLE IS VERY SPECIFIC
IT WOULHE WOULD COME FROM THAT
REGION.
Pat: THEY CAN OPEN AN
ATLAS, AND THERE IT IS.
HOW DO THESE PREACHERS GET
SO FAR OFF-COURSE THEN?
THEY'VE GOT BIG AUDIENCES
LISTENING TO THIS
NONSENSE?
WE TEND TO BE VERY GOOD
STUDENTS OF OUR TEACHERS,
AND NOT ALWAYS VERY GOOD
STUDENTS OF THE
SCRIPTURES, UNFORTUNATELY.
Pat: ALL RIGHT.
GOG, AND MAGOG, AND YOU
SAY GOG AND MAGOG COME OUT
OF A BIBLE -- THEY'RE
BIBLICALLY LOCATED IN
TURKEY?
YEAH.
BASICALLY, YES.
ASIAN MINOR AND ANATOLIA.
AND THEY'RE THE LEADERS OF
THIS COMING INVASION OF
ISRAEL.
WHAT IS SO ESSENTIAL IS
WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS
INVASION -- PEOPLE SAY
THEY GET WIPED OUT.
THAT'S NOT TRUE.
IN CHAPTER 39: 17, AS A
DIRECT RESULT OF THE
DESTRUCTION OF GOG AND HIS
HOARDS, IT SAYS ISRAEL
WILL COME TO KNOW THE
LORD.
HE WILL POUR OUT HIS
SPIRIT ON ISRAEL.
THOSE THINGS HAPPEN AFTER
A RETURN OF JESUS.
THEY DON'T HAPPEN SEVERAL
YEARS PRIOR.
SO IT IS A DISTORTION OF
THE TEXT TO SAY THIS IS
SPEAKING OF ANYTHING OTHER
THAN THE ANTI-CHRIST.
Pat: AGAIN, BACK TO
EZEKIEL -- YOU MENTION IN
YOUR BOOK, AND I TOTALLY
AGREE, WE CANNOT FOCUS OUR
PROPHETIC TEACHING ON
APOCALYPTIC LITERATURE.
THERE ARE JUST TOO MANY
SYMBOLS.
BUT THERE ARE CLEAR
PASSAGES, AND THAT'S WHY
WE CAN FOCUS ON EZEKIEL.
IT IS PRETTY CLEAR.
THEY'VE GOT IRAN AND
PERSIA AND THE SUDAN AND
KUSH, AND I GUESS MAYBE
LIBYA -- I DON'T KNOW.
AND THEN THIS OTHER PART,
WE'VE SAID THAT'S UP IN
EUROPE.
AND THAT'S ROSH.
AND ROSH IN HEBREW MEANS
HEAD.
BUT THEY SAY THAT MEANS
RUSSIA.
HOW DID THEY GET THAT?
YOU HAVE 602 TIMES THE
WORD "ROSH" USED, AND 601
TIMES IT IS TRANSLATED AS
HEAD OR CHIEF.
BUT FOR SOME REASON IN
THAT ONE TEXT, BECAUSE IT
SOUNDS LIKE RUSSIA, A LOT
OF WESTERNERS HAVE TRIED
TO USE THAT TO SAY IT IS A
PROPER NOUN, POINTING TO
RUSSIA.
MODERN HEBREW -- CONSENSUS
OF MODERN HEBREW
SCHOLARSHIP SAYS THAT IS
NONSENSE.
Pat: IT WOULD BE
EITHER THE HEAD OR THE
PRINCE OR CHIEF OF THIS
GROUP.
IT WOULD BE USED IN THE
SAME WAY IT IS USED
THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE
AREA.
ROSH KADESH.
Pat: ALL RIGHT.
WHAT ARE THE MUSLIMS DOING
THAT MAKE THEM LOOK LIKE
THEY FULFILL THIS
PROPHETIC WORD?
WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND
THAT THE SCRIPTURES ARE
THOROUGHLY ISRAEL CENTRIC.
SO THE PRIMARY BAROMETER
FOR THE ANTI-CHRIST THEORY
ARE THE NATIONS THAT ARE
POSSESSED WITH THE DEMONIC
HATRED OF THE JEWISH
PEOPLE, THE PROMISED LAND,
SO THE QURAN IS
ANTI-CHRISTIC.
IT SAYS IF YOU BELIEVE
THAT JESUS IS THE SON OF
GOD, YOU'RE THE HARDEST
BLASPHEMER.
THE QURAN NAMES THE MOST
ESSENTIAL FOUNDATIONAL
DOCTRINES OF THE CHRISTIAN
FAITH AND CALLS IT THE
WORST FORM OF BLASPHEMY.
IT DOESN'T TAKE GREAT
DISCERNMENT TO LOOK AT
THIS AND SAY THIS IS THAT
WHICH THE PROPHETS WERE
SPEAKING OF.
Pat: LET'S TALK ABOUT
THIS MAHDI.
THEY LOOK FOR THIS 12th
IMAM, THE MAHDI, AND THEY
THINK HE IS IN THE WELL WELL IN
KUME IN IRAN.
BUT WHAT DO THEY THINK IS
GOING TO HAPPEN IN THE
LAST DAYS?
WHAT DO THEY TEACH?
SO WHETHER WE'RE WE'RE
DEALING WITH THE SHAR'IA
MUSLIMS OR THE AMADHI,
THEY'RE WAITING FOR THE
TWO TO COME BACK TO CAUSE
ISLAM TO BE SUPREME, TO
DEFEAT ALL OF THE OTHER
FAITHS, AND TO AMAZINGLY
ESTABLISH THE SEAT OF
GLOBAL ISLAMIC AUTHORITY
ON THE TEMPLE MOUNT.
THAT'S WHAT THEY SAY THEIR
MESSIAH FIGURE WILL DO IN
THE LAST DAYS.
Pat: AND JESUS WILL
BE FIGURED INTO THAT, BUT
AS A SUBSERVIENT FIGURE?
THEY SAY JESUS COMES
BACK AND PRAYS BEHIND THE
TEMPLE AS A SIGN --
Pat: THAT'S ABOUT AS
ANTI-CHRIST AS YOU CAN
GET.
THEY'VE BASICALLY TAKEN
THE BIBLICAL STORY OF THE
LAST DAYS, FLIPPED IT ON
ITS HEAD, IT IS A MIRROR
IMAGE, AND THEY MADE ALL
OF THE BAD GUYS THE GOOD
GUYS.
AS CHRISTIANS, WE NEED TO
LOOK AT THIS AND SAY,
SATAN HAS SET MUSLIMS UP.
WE CAN DISCERN AND LOOK AT
IT.
BUT WE NEED TO BE PRAYING
FOR MUSLIMS AND SAY, GOD
BREAK THE BLINDERS AND
DECEPTION OFF OF THEIR
EYES.
Pat: YOU BRING OUT
SOMETHING IN ONE OF YOUR
BOOKS ABOUT BLACK FLAGS.
WHERE IS THAT?
AND THAT'S WHAT ISIS HAS,
IS BLACK FLAGS THEY'RE
WAVING OVER THESE
CONQUERED TERRITORIES?
IN THEIR PROPHECIES, IT
SAYS IN THE LAST DAYS
YOU'LL SEE BLACK FLAGS
COMING FROM THE EAST,
MARCHING TO JERUSALEM.
IT SAYS WHEN YOU SEE THE
BLACK FLAGS, EVEN IF YOU
HAVE TO CRAWL OVER SNOW,
GO AND GIVE YOUR
ALLEGIANCE TO THAT ARMY.
SO THESE FOLLOWERS OF
ISIS, THESE KIDS BEING
RECRUITED, THEY'RE BEING
SWEPT UP.
THEY BELIEVE THAT THEY ARE
PART OF THE UNFOLDING OF
ISLAMIC PROPHECY.
THEY BELIEVE THEY'RE IN
THE LAST DAYS, AND THEY'RE
GOING FOR BROKE.
Pat: WE HAVE A
PRESIDENT WHO THINKS THAT
YOU CAN SIT ACROSS THE
TABLE WITH IRANIAN LEADERS
AND CUT A DEAL THAT WILL
LIMIT NUCLEAR WEAPONS.
BUT THEY'RE NOT GOING TO
GIVE UP THEIR RELIGIOUS
BELIEFS BECAUSE OF OUR
PRESIDENT, WILL THEY?
NO.
YOU KNOW WHAT IS AMAZING,
PAT, IS THAT SECULAR
CRITICS WILL WATCH THIS
SHOW, AND THEY'LL SAY PAT
ROBERTSON JUST HAD THIS
CRAZY CHRISTIAN GUY ON,
BUT HERE IS PRESIDENT
OBAMA GIVING THIS -- THEY
OPENLY DECLARE THEY WANT
TO COMMIT GENOCIDE AND
WIPE OUT A NATION, AND HE
IS OPENING THE DOOR FOR
THEM TO EVENTUALLY ACHIEVE
NUCLEAR CAPABILITIES.
A THOUSAND TIMES MORE
VIOLENT, ACTIVE,
AGGRESSIVE AND CRAZY
PEOPLE, AND YET THEY'LL
DEFEND OBAMA'S ACTIONS.
I ALWAYS TRY TO GIVE THE
PRESIDENT THE BENEFIT OF
THE DOUBT, BUT THIS IS
CRAZY.
Pat: AHMADINEJAD SAID
THERE WAS A BRIGHT LIGHT
AROUND HIM AND HE WAS
TAKING THE REST OF THE
UNITED NATIONS WITH HIM.
DO YOU REMEMBER THAT?
THAT WAS IN
SEPTEMBER 2005.
HE STOOD BEFORE THE U.N.
GENERAL ASSEMBLY AND
PRAYED FOR THE COMING OF
THE PERFECT MAN, THE MAHDI
MAHDI.
Pat: YOU PRONOUNCE IT
"MAHDI."
IN ENGLISH, YOU CAN
JUST SAY MAHDI.
Pat: BUT THAT'S THE
FOUNDATIONAL BELIEF OF
THOSE SHI'ITES WHO RUN
THAT -- WELL, THAT --
THEY DOMINATE THE
COUNTRY.
Pat: THEY DOMINATE
THE COUNTRY, BUT IT'S A --
WELL, IT'S RUN BY THE
MULLAHS.
IT IS NOT A SECULAR STATE
AT ALL.
IT IS A RELIGIOUS STATE.
THERE IS NO WAY THEY'RE
GOING TO SURRENDER THOSE
BELIEFS.
NO.
IRAN -- THEY ARE SOME OF
THE MOST FIRM -- THEY HAVE
FIRM CONVICTIONS, AND IRAN
IS PLAYING THE LONG GAME.
EVERYTHING THEY'VE SAID
THEY ARE GOING TO
ACCOMPLISH, THEY HAVE
ACCOMPLISHED.
AND THE FINAL STEP IS
THEIR ACHIEVING NUCLEAR
WEAPONS.
AND WE REALLY DO HAVE A
SUNNI SHI'A REGIONAL WAR
EMERGING RIGHT BEFORE US.
TURKEY VERSES IRAN, SAUDI
ARABIA VERSES IRAN.
Pat: IF TURKEY IS
GOING TO LEAD THIS
COALITION IN THE EZEKIEL
CONTEXT, ARE THEY GOING TO
TURN -- ERDOGAN JUST GOT
BEAT, AND HE WAS
ESTABLISHING AN ISLAMIC
REGIME.
AND THAT'S GONE DOWN IN
FLAMES.
THE FOUNDATION OF MODERN
TURKEY WAS SECULAR.
ARE THEY GOING TO TURN
ISLAMIC?
WHAT DO YOU THINK IS GOING
TO HAPPEN?
IF THEY'RE THE LEADERS OF
THIS COALITION.
THE A.K.PARTY UNDER
PRESIDENT ERDOGAN -- WE
HAVE SEEN THIS ISLAMIST IN
SURGENCE IN TURKEY.
HE SUFFERED A MASSIVE
DEFEAT, BUT HE IS NOT OUT
FOR THE COUNT.
THE KURDISH PARTY THAT
SURPRISED EVERYONE AND
TOOK 10%, THEY'RE VERY
CONSERVATIVE.
AND MOST OF THEM HAVE
SUPPORTED THE A.K. PARTY
IN THE PAST.
SO TURKEY HAS UNDERGONE AN
ISLAMIST REVOLUTION, BUT
IT IS THE GOVERNMENT.
MANY OF THE PEOPLE ARE, OF
COURSE, OPPOSED TO THIS
DICTATORSHIP.
BUT WE WILL SEE, I
BELIEVE, IN THIS REGIONAL
CONFLICT BETWEEN IRAN AND
TURKEY, I BELIEVE TURKEY
OVER THE NEXT DECADE WILL
ACHIEVE DOMINANCE.
WE'RE GOING TO SEE SOME
WARS.
THERE ARE REGIONAL WARS
THAT WILL UNFOLD.
Pat: HOW ABOUT UP IN
THE CAUCASUS.
THOSE PEOPLE ARE PRETTY
STRONGLY MUSLIM.
ARE THEY GOING TO BE IN
THIS COALITION IN EZEKIEL?
PROBABLY.
A LOT OF THE
UZBEKISTANS -- A LOFLT
THEM, BECAUSLOT OFTHEM BECAUSE OF THE
TURKISH ETHNICITY, WILL
SORT OF GO WITH TURKEY.
IT IS ALL UP IN THE AIR.
I WOULD SAY TO THE PEOPLE
IN THOSE NATIONS, PRAY FOR
YOUR COUNTRY.
DON'T GIVE UP.
I DON'T WANT TO GIVE INTO
FATALISM.
Pat: YOU SEE WARS.
HOW ABOUT SAUDI ARABIA.
WHEN YOU LOOK AT PROPHECY,
YOU ALSO SEE THE TIME WHEN
ISRAEL AND EGYPT AND AS
ASSYRIA ARE GOING TO BE
ONE FOR THE LORD.
THANK YOU FOR BRINGING
THAT UP.
ONE, ISLAM IS NOT GOING
AWAY UNTIL JESUS RETURNS.
AND, TWO, ISAIAH 19, THERE
IS GOING TO BE A GREAT
HARVEST.
THE LORD IS CALLING
MUSLIMS OUT, AND THEY WILL
BE PART OF HIS KINGDOM.
AND WE, THE CHURCH -- IF
THERE IS ONE APPLICATION
TO THIS MATERIAL, WE NEED
TO GIVE OURSELVES TO THE
ISLAMIC WORLD, TO LAY DOWN
OUR LIVES TO COMPLETE THE
GREAT COMMISSION, AND TO
SNATCH AS MANY AS WE CAN
FROM THE FIRE.
THEY MAKE SOME OF THE MOST
PASSIONATE, FIERY
FOLLOWERS OF JESUS.
I GOT TO SEE SOME OF THAT
AND BE PART OF IT.
IT IS ONE OF THE MOST
EXCITING THINGS THAT THE
LORD IS DOING ON THE EARTH
RIGHT NOW.
Pat: WE HAVE
50 MILLION HITS ON OUR
ARABIC LANGUAGE WEBSITE.
AND THE MUSLIMS ARE VERY
MUCH HORRIFIED AT WHAT
THEY'RE SEEING FROM ISIS.
BUT, OKAY.
ONE LAST THING.
NOW WE'VE GOT EZEKIEL, BUT
HOW DOES HE TURN INTO THE
ANTI-CHRIST?
ESSENTIALLY GOG IS
SIMPLY ANOTHER NAME FOR
THE ANTI-CHRIST.
IF YOU READ JEWISH
LITERATURE, THEY SAY THIS
IS THE FINAL INVASION OF
ISRAEL AFTER HE HAS
DESTROYED, AND THEN COMES
THE MESSIAH.
WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE END
OF THIS PROPHECY, EZEKIEL
38, 39, IT ENDS WITH JESUS
ON THE GROUND.
IT SAYS "ALL OF THE
NATIONS WILL KNOW THAT GOD
IS THE HOLY ONE IN
ISRAEL."
THE ONLY TIME THAT
SPECIFIC PHRASE IS USED,
THE HOLY ONE NOT OF
ISRAEL, BUT THE HOLY ONE
IN ISRAEL.
IT ACTUALLY SAYS HIS FACE
WILL BE SEEN.
A LOT OF PEOPLE MISS THAT
POINT.
THIS IS ESSENTIALLY THE
SECOND RETURN OF THE OLD
TESTAMENT.
IT DESCRIBES GOD AS COMING
TO ISRAEL TO DELIVER THEM
FROM THIS INVASION.
IT ENDS, BY THE WAY, WITH
THE GREAT FEAST, THE FEAST
OF THE BIRD AND THE FEAST
OF THE FIELD.
WHICH IS THE SAME FEAST
REFERRED IN REVELATION 19.
Pat: I READ SOMEBODY
SAID, THE BUZZARDS ARE
COMING BACK.
I SAW ONE BIRD, AND THEY
SAID, IS THAT THE BUZZARD,
AND I SAID, NO, IT'S A
STORK.
SO THEY'RE NOT THERE YET
TO EAT THE FLESH OF
CAPTIVES.
IN ANY EVENT, SOON, LATER?
HOW DO YOU SEE IT?
IT IS CLOSER NOW THAN
EVER BEFORE.
BUT THE POINT IS THAT YOU
CAN LOOK AT THE NATIONS.
YOU CAN SEE THE LANDSCAPE,
AND IT'S COMING INTO
FOCUS.
AND THIS NEEDS TO DRIVE US
TO URGENCY TO PROCLAIM THE
GOSPEL, TO DECLARE TO THE
ISLAMIC WORLD, JESUS LOVES
YOU.
HE DIED FOR YOU.
ISLAM IS NOT THE ANSWER.
AND WE NEED TO BE ABOUT
THE BUSINESS OF COMPLETING
THE GREAT COMMISSION.
Pat: AMEN.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS
IS ANOTHER ONE.
JOEL RICHARDSON, HE GOES
INTO GREAT LENGTH TO
REBUTT SOME OF THE PEOPLE
WHO HAVE PUT OUT THEORIES
THAT ARE CONTRARY.
AND I THINK IT IS
DETAILED, AND IT IS THE
KIND OF THING YOU WANT TO
STUDY.
"MIDDLE EAST BEAST," JOEL
RICHARDSON.
JOEL, THANK YOU FOR YOUR
RESEARCH AND WHAT YOU'RE
DOING.
GOD BLESS YOU.
GOD BLESS YOU, PAT.
THANK YOU.
Pat: TERRY, NOW YOU
KNOW ABOUT THE
ANTI-CHRIST, AND HOLD ON
TO YOUR SEAT BELT BECAUSE
THE ROCKETS ARE FIRED UP.
Terry: I'M GOING TO
GET THE BOOK.
> STILL AHEAD, SHE'S
BEEN CALLED A DUMB BLONDE
AND ODDLY THE SMART
MISS AMERICA.
SO WHO IS THE REAL
GRETCHEN CARLSON?
WE'RE GOING TO FIND OUT
AFTER THIS.
Terry: AS THE HOST OF
"REAL STORY," ON FOX NEWS,
GRETCHEN CARLSON
INTERVIEWS NEWSMAKERS AND
TACKLES THE TOP HEADLINES
OF THE DAY.
TODAY SHE IS GETTING REAL
ON A MORE PERSONAL STORY,
HER OWN.
GRETCH CHARLESTON
CAPTIVATED THE COUNTRY AS
MISS AMERICA IN 1989.
TODAY SHE IS CAPTIVATING
AUDIENCES AS AN
AWARD-WINNING JOURNALIST
AND HOST OF "THE REAL
STORY," ON FOX NEWS.
BUT THINGS DIDN'T ALWAYS
COME EASY FOR GRETCHEN.
IN HER BOOK, "GETTING
REAL," SHE SHARES LESSONS
FROM HER EARLY DAYS AS A
REPORTER, AND HOW SHE OVER
CAME HER CHILDHOOD
INSECUREST THROUGH COURAGE
AND PERSEVERANCE.
GRETCHEN CARLSON IS WITH
US NOW.
IT IS SO GREAT TO HAVE YOU
HERE.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR
HAVING ME.
YOU AND I HAVE KNOWN EACH
OTHER FOR SO LONG BECAUSE
WE ALSO SHARE THE
MISS AMERICA LEGACY
TOGETHER.
Terry: YES.
BUT WE DON'T OFTEN GET TO
JUST VISIT WITH EACH OTHER
AND SIT COMFORTABLY
TOGETHER AND TALK, UNLESS
WE GO BACK TO ATLANTIC
CITY OR WHEREVER.
SO NICE TO HAVE YOU HERE.
THANK YOU.
Terry: YOU HAVE TAKEN
IT UPON YOURSELF TO BATTLE
THE STIGMA THAT GOES WITH
NOT JUST BEING
MISS AMERICA, BUT BEING
BLONDE AND BEING A FIRST.
I MEAN, YOU MOVED INTO THE
NEWS ARENA WHEN THERE
WEREN'T A LOT OF WOMEN IN
NEWS.
BUT GO BACK TO THE VERY
BEGINNING.
HERE YOU ARE, YOU'RE A
WELL-STUDIED CLASSICAL
VIOLINIST.
YOU GRADUATED FROM
STANFORD, STUDIED AT
OXFORD, AND STILL YOU'VE
HAD TO CONTEND OVER THE
YEARS WITH THE WHOLE DUMB
BLONDE THING.
HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?
IT IS AMAZING.
IT HAPPENED AFTER BECOMING
MISS AMERICA.
SUDDENLY IT IS JUST A LOT
EASIER TO CALL YOU A
BIMBO.
THAT CAME AS A REAL SHOCK
TO ME, TO BE HONEST WITH
YOU.
BECAUSE I GREW UP IN THE
MIDWEST.
AND THE MINNESOTA NICE
THING IS SO TRUE.
THE FACT THAT PEOPLE WERE
JUST TEARING ME DOWN JUST
BECAUSE WAS REALLY
SHOCKING.
MY DAD GAVE ME SOME OF
LIFE'S GREATEST ADVICE AT
THAT TIME, AND EVERYONE
LOVES MY DAD, SO IT MEANT
EVEN MORE.
HE SAID, YOU KNOW WHAT,
GRETCHEN, NO MATTER HOW
HARD YOU TRY, YOU'RE NEVER
GOING TO GET EVERYONE TO
LIKE YOU.
SO TRY YOUR BEST WITH THE
PEOPLE YOU CAN.
Terry: I KNOW PEOPLE
SAY TO YOU -- YOU TALK
ABOUT THIS IN THE BOOK,
AND I THINK THIS IS TRUE
FOR MANY PEOPLE WHO HAVE
HAD VISIBLE SUCCESS IN
THEIR LIVES -- YOU'RE SO
LUCKY TO HAVE GOTTEN THE
BREAKS YOU HAVE GOTTEN.
THE TRUTH IS BEHIND ALL
THAT YOU HAVE ACCOMPLISHED
IS A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF
HARD WORK.
IT CAME FROM THE
PROTESTANT WORTH ETHIC.
MY GRANDFATHER WAS A
LUTHERAN MINISTER IN TOWN,
SO I WAS FORTUNATE TO HAVE
FAITH AS THE FOUNDATION IN
MY LIFE.
HE STARTED OUR CHURCH WITH
800 MEMBERS, AND WHEN HE
LEFT, THERE WERE 8,500.
SO I LEARNED THE NEVER
GIVE UP ATTITUDE, EVER,
AND WORK HARD.
AND MY MOM, WHEN SHE WOULD
PUT ME TO BED AT NIGHT AND
SAY MY PRAYERS, EVERY
NIGHT SHE ALSO SAID, YOU
KNOW, GRETCHEN, YOU CAN BE
ANYTHING YOU WANT TO BE.
SO I BUILT MY SELF-ESTEEM
FROM THE INSIDE OUT.
IT IS SUCH AN IMPORTANT
LESSON FOR THE YOUNG
PEOPLE TODAY.
Terry: AND SOMETIMES,
GRETCHEN, THOSE LESSONS
COME FROM STRUGGLING
THROUGH WHAT OTHER PEOPLE
PUT IN FRONT OF YOU.
YOU TALK IN THE BOOK ABOUT
THE FACT THAT AT ONE POINT
IN YOUR LIFE, AS A VERY
YOUNG GIRL, YOU DEALT WITH
WEIGHT ISSUES.
OH, YEAH.
Terry: BIT IT CHANGES
THE WAY YOU SEE YOURSELF.
WAS IT YOUR BROTHERS WHO
USED TO CALL YOU BLIMPO?
I LOOK AT NEW, AND YOU'RE
ABOUT AS BIG AS A MINUTE
AND I THINK HOW IS THAT
POSSIBLE?
I'M 100% SWEDISH.
AND MY MOM USED TO SAY,
LOOK AT OUR GREAT
GRANDMOTHER'S LEGS.
THEY START HERE AND GO ALL
THE WAY DOWN.
THAT IS WHAT I WAS BORN
WITH GENETICALLY.
I WAS A FAT KID.
I HAD A LOT OF TAUNTS AND
TEASING.
BUT HERE IS THE LESSON IN
IT: I BUILT ME FROM MY
SOUL.
THAT IS SO IMPORTANT.
IN A WAY IT WAS A BLESSING
THAT I WAS FAT.
RIGHT AFTER I WON
MISS AMERICA, I SAID IN
THE PRESS CONFERENCE, I
WAS FAT AND LOOK WHAT
HAPPENED.
IF YOU WORK HARD, YOU CAN
BECOME MISS AMERICA, TOO.
AND MY BROTHERS CALLED ME
BLIMPO, AND I WENT TO THE
AIRPORT, AND ALL OF THE
RAGS HAD MY PICTURE ON THE
FRONT COVER AND IT SAYS
"BLIMPO WINS THE
MISS AMERICA PAGEANT."
Terry: YOU LEARNED
YOU CAN'T BE REALLY
CANDID.
I LEARNED IT, AND NOW
I'M IN THE BUSINESS.
I LEARNED EARLY ON.
BUT, YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'M NOT GIVING UCH THE
FIGHT.
UP THE
FIGHT.
I STILL TALK ABOUT MY
FAITH.
I'M ONE OF THE VERY FEW
NATIONAL NEWS ANCHORS WHO
IS FREE TO TALK ABOUT HER
FAITH.
THERE IS MONTHS AGO ABOUT
TURNING 40 WHERE I DON'T
GIVE A RIP ANYMORE.
[LAUGHTER]
AND I TAKE A LOT OF
CRITICISM FOR IT, BUT I'M
GOING TO CONTINUE TO STAND
UP FOR WHAT I BELIEVE IN.
Terry: IT REALLY,
REALLY DOES.
YOU WERE A PRODIGY,
REALLY, AS A VIOLINIST, AS
A CHILD.
YOU PLAYED WITH SOME OF
THE BEST.
DO YOU MISS THAT?
IS THAT -- BECAUSE IT
CAN'T BE A PART OF YOUR
LIFE.
TO DO THAT, YOU HAVE TO
MAKE A CHOICE: YOU'RE
EITHER TOTALLY COMMITTED
TO THAT OR COMMITTED TO
YOUR FAMILY AND YOUR
BUSINESS.
THAT'S AN IMPORTANT
FACT YOU BRING UP.
AT AGE 17 I BURNED OUT.
I THOUGHT THAT WAS GOING
TO BE MY CAREER.
MY MOM SAID, PLEASE FIND
OTHER WAY IN WHICH YOU CAN
USE THIS TALENT.
AND SHE GOT THE BROCHURE
IN THE MAIL ABOUT
MISS AMERICA.
IT SAID 50% OF THE POINTS
ARE BASED ON TALENT.
AND SHE CALLED ME AND
SAID, I FOUND SOMETHING
FOR YOU TO TRY.
AND I SAID, NO WAY.
SHE ENCOURAGED ME TO DO
IT.
I GUESS THE POINT OF MY
BOOK IS THAT LIFE WORKS IN
MYSTERIOUS WAYS, AS WE
KNOW.
Terry: ISN'T IT
CURIOUS?
I HAVE GONE OFF IN MANY
DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS AND
ACCOMPLISHED DIFFERENT
THINGS ALONG THE WAY.
AND NONE OF THEM CAME
EASY.
I GOT FIRED THE WEEK AFTER
I GOT MARRIED.
AND MY BOSS SAID TO ME,
YOU'LL BE FINE NOW THAT
YOU HAVE A HUSBAND.
THAT WAS MY SELF-IDENTITY.
AND I HAVE GREAT EMPATHY
FOR ANYONE WHO HAS EVER
BEEN FIRED OR IS STILL
UNEMPLOYED RIGHT NOW, AND
THEY'RE WONDERING, HOW AM
I GOING TO GET OUT FROM
UNDERNEATH THIS?
IT WAS THE TOUGHEST YEAR
OF MY LIFE.
THANK GOODNESS I HAD FAITH
AS MY FOUNDATION TO HELP
ME THROUGH.
Terry: SOMETIMES
YOU'RE IN THOSE WAITING
PERIODS, AND THAT'S WHAT
HAPPENED TO YOU.
WHERE YOU WAIT FOR THE
RIGHT PHONE CALL TO COME,
AND YOU TRUST THAT IT IS
COMING BECAUSE YOU KNOW
YOU'VE WORKED FOR WHAT
YOU'VE ACCOMPLISHED.
BUT YOU HAD TO WAIT.
THERE WAS A SEASON OF
WAITING AFTER YOU GOT
FIRED, BEFORE YOU GOT WHAT
YOU WERE GOING TO DO NEXT
AND THEN MOVED ON TO NEW
YORK.
AND SO FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE
IN THAT PLACE YOU'RE
TALKING ABOUT, SOMETIMES
THE WAITING IS PART OF THE
PROCESS.
THE WAITING, AND ALSO
REALIZING INSIDE OF
YOURSELF THAT YOU MAY HAVE
TO TAKE A STEP BACK TO GET
BACK INTO THE GAME.
SO WHEN I FINALLY TOOK
THAT NEXT JOB, OR WAS
LUCKY ENOUGH TO GET
ANOTHER JOB, IT WAS A STEP
BACK, BUT IN MY MIND I
SAID, THANK YOU, LORD, FOR
GIVING ME THIS
OPPORTUNITY, AND I'M GOING
TO WORK TRIPLE HARD TO
MAKE IT WORTH MY WHILE.
Terry: THAT'S A BIG
MESSAGE IN YOUR BOOK,
ABOUT HOW HARD YOU'VE
WORKED, HAD TO WORK, BEEN
WILLING TO WORK BECAUSE
SOMETIMES IT IS -- YOU
OFTEN HEAR IN TODAY'S
WORLD, WHERE SOMETIMES,
ESPECIALLY YOUNGER PEOPLE
WITHOUT JOBS SAY, I DON'T
WANT TO DO THAT.
BUT YOU JUMPED INTO EVERY
DOOR THAT GOD OPENED FOR
YOU WITH BOTH FEET.
THE BOOK IS CALLED
"GETTING REAL."
WHAT DO YOU WANT PEOPLE TO
KNOW ABOUT YOU THAT THEY
MIGHT NOT KNOW?
I WANT THEM TO KNOW
I'VE ALSO STRUGGLED, AND
THAT THROUGH MY FAITH AS
MY FOUNDATION, THAT HAS
KEPT ME GOING.
AND THAT I AM THE BIGGEST
PROPONENT FOR WOMEN AND
FOR HELPING THEM.
I THINK IT IS SO
IMPORTANT.
I WANT TO INSPIRE YOUNG
WOMEN TO BE ANYTHING THEY
WANT TO BE.
MY DOOR IS ALWAYS OPEN.
Terry: AGAIN, I WANT
TO SAY THE BOOK IS CALLED
"GETTING REAL."
IT RELEASES NATIONWIDE
TODAY.
YOU CAN CATCH HER HOSTING
"REAL STORY" ON FOX NEWS.
IT IS WEEKDAY AFTERNOONS.
IT IS WONDERFUL TO HAVE
YOU WITH US AND GREAT TO
HAVE A MINUTE TO SIT DOWN
TOGETHER --
AND CATCH UP.
WE COULD GO ON AND ON.
Terry: WE COULD DO A
WEEK PRETTY EASILY.
WE'RE GOING TO BE BACK
WITH MORE OF "THE 700
CLUB" RIGHT AFTER THIS.
COMING UP, A MURDERER
KIDNAPS A MOM, IN A STORY
RIPPED STRAIGHT FROM THE
HEADLINES.
GET AN EXCLUSIVE LOOK AT
THE UPCOMING THRILLER
"CAPTIVE," WHEN WE RETURN.
AND WELCOME BACK TO
"THE 700 CLUB."
THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT IS
TEARING DOWN A
MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR
CHURCH, LEAVING THE
CONGREGATION HIGH AND DRY.
CHINA AID REPORTS THAT
OFFICIALS HAD APPROVED THE
PATRIOTIC CHURCH IN THE
CITY OF WEN LING.
NOW IT IS BEING DESTROYED
ON GOVERNMENT ORDERS.
THE CHURCH WILL BE ALLOWED
TO RELOCATE, BUT IT IS
ONLY RECEIVING
COMPENSATION FOR ONE-SIXTH
OF WHAT THE BUILDING IS
WORTH.
AND CHINA'S GOVERNMENT HAS
ALSO BEEN TEARING DOWN
CROSSES FROM CHURCH
BUILDINGS, AND ARRESTING
CHRISTIANS WHO OPPOSE THE
DESTRUCTION OF THE
CROSSES.
WOMEN SEEKING ABORTIONS
IN NORTH CAROLINA WON'T
HAVE TO VIEW AN ULTRASOUND
BEFORE THE PROCEDURE.
A LOWER COURT HAD STRUCK
DOWN THE STATE'S LAW THAT
MADE ABORTION DOCTORS
PERFORM AND EXPLAIN THE
ULTRASOUND.
THE HIGH COURT UPHELD THAT
RULING, AND THE JUSTICES
ALSO WEIGHED IN ON A
MISSISSIPPI ABORTION LAW.
THEY REJECTED AN APPEAL TO
REINSTATE THE LAW THAT
REQUIRED ABORTION DOCTORS
TO HAVE ADMITTING
PRIVILEGES AT LOCAL
HOSPITALS.
THAT DECISION ALLOWS
MISSISSIPPI'S ONLY
REMAINING ABORTION CLINIC
TO STAY OPEN.
YOU CAN ALWAYS GET THE
LATEST FROM CBN NEWS BY

cbnnews.com.
PAT AND TERRY WILL BE BACK
WITH MORE OF "700 CLUB" "THE 700
CLUB" RIGHT AFTER THIS.
Terry: ON MARCH 11,
2005, AN ACCUSED RAPIST
NAMED BRIAN NICHOLS
ESCAPED CUSTODY AND
MURDERED FOUR PEOPLE,
INCLUDING A JUDGE AND A
FEDERAL AGENT.
HE THEN CARJACKED SEVERAL
VEHICLES, AND A MANHUNT
ENSUED.
AND AT 2:00 IN THE MORNING
THE FOLLOW DAY, A YOUNG
MOM, NAMED ASHLEY SMITH,
WAS WALKING TOWARDS HER
APARTMENT WHEN NICHOLS
APPEARED AND HELD HER
HOSTAGE IN HER HOME.
WHAT HAPPENED NEXT IS THE
SUBJECT FOR THE UPCOMING
MOVIE "CAPTIVE."
AND FOR THE FIRST TIME
ANYWHERE, "THE 700 CLUB"
HAS A SNEAK PEEK.
TAKE A LOOK.
MOMMY --
HEY, BABY GIRL.
-- I LOVE YOU.
I LOVE YOU, TOO.
I LOST EVERYTHING.
MY HUSBAND IS DEAD.
AND THEY SAID I WAS AN
UNFIT MOTHER AND TOOK AWAY
MY LITTLE GIRL.
HAVE YOU HEARD OF THIS
BOOK?
IT HELPED ME.
THE LADY DROPPED THIS
OFF FOR YOU.
I HAD TO BREAK OUT.
THE BREAKING STORY
RIGHT NOW, THE POLICE ARE
LOOKING FOR THIS MAN.
HE IS MURDER SUSPECT
BRIAN NICHOLS.
I WANT AN EYE IN THE
SKY.
ALL CHOPPERS UP NOW.
MY NAME IS ASHLEY
SMITH.
I'M A MOTHER.
DO IT AGAIN, AND I'LL
HAVE TO KILL YOU.
I NEED TO SEE MY
DAUGHTER.
YOU'RE NOT GOING
ANYWHERE.
GOD, PLEASE HELP ME.
* YOU CALLED ME OUT
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
IT'S JUST A BOOK.
READ IT TO ME.
*
YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY
YOU WERE PLACED ON THIS
PLANET?
YOU MUST BEGIN WITH GOD.
HE EXPECTS YOU TO MAKE THE
MOST OF WHAT YOU'VE BEEN
GIVEN.
I HAVEN'T BEEN GIVEN
ANYTHING.
YOU HAVE A SON.
CHRISTOPHER, YOU'RE
GOING TO HEAR SOME BAD
THINGS ABOUT ME.
I LOVE YOU, LITTLE MAN.
THE GREATEST TRAGEDY IS
NOT DEATH BUT LIFE WITHOUT
PURPOSE.
*
DO YOU FORGIVE ME?
I DON'T KNOW, BUT MAYBE
GOD CAN.
Terry: "CAPTIVE."
THE MOVIE OPENS IN
THEATERS ON FRIDAY,
SEPTEMBER 18th.
IT IS RATED PG-13, AND IF
YOU WANT TO SEE MORE OF
THIS REAL-LIFE TALE, HEAD
TO cbn.com.
REPORTER TIM BRANSON HAD A
CHANCE TO SIT DOWN WITH
ASHLEY SMITH IN A CLASSIC
"700 CLUB" STORY.
> NEXT UP, YOUR E-MAIL
QUESTIONS, DEB SAYS "MY
NEW iPAD USES A
THUMBPRINT TO UNLOCK IT.
COULD THIS BE A MARK OF
THE BEAST?"
STAY TUNED FOR "BRING IT
ON" AFTER THIS.
Terry: WELL, WE WANT
TO TAKE SOME TIME TO
"BRING IT ON" WITH THE
E-MAIL QUESTIONS YOU'VE
SUBMITTED.
PAT, THIS FIRST ONE COMES
FROM DEB, WHO SAYS, "MY
SPOUSE BOUGHT ME A
NEW iPAD YESTERDAY.
I LET HIM LOAD IT, AND IT
REQUESTED EITHER A
THUMBPRINT FOR A PASSWORD.
I SAID, FINGERPRINTS ARE
FOR CRIMINALS AND I
WOULDN'T SUBMIT TO IT IN
MY OWN HOME.
PLUS, I FEEL THIS HAD THE
MARK OF THE BEAST WRITTEN
ALL OVER IT.
I THOUGHT I AM RIGHT, BUT
HE DOESN'T THINK SO.
WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS?"
Pat: IT ALSO SAID YOU
CAN HAVE A PASSWORD.
I DON'T SEE ANYTHING WRONG
WITH THAT.
I HAVE A PASSWORD ON MINE,
AND YOU HIT FOUR DIGITS
AND THE THING TURNS ON.
Terry: I USED TO HAVE
THAT ON MY PHONE, BUT I
WENT TO THE THUM BECAUSE THUMB BECAUSE
YOU JUST PUSH IT AND IT
OPENS UP.
Pat: I DON'T THINK
THAT'S THE MARK OF THE
BEAST.
YOUR FOREHEAD IS YOUR
VOLITION AND YOUR HAND IS
YOUR ACTION.
WHAT IT SAYS IS I'M GIVING
MY VOLITION AND MY ACTION
TO AN ALIEN RELIGIOUS
BEING.
I DON'T THINK PUTTING A
THUMBPRINT ON AN iPAD IS
EXACTLY DOING THAT.
Terry: MEL SAYS, "I
TRULY NEED YOUR HELP.
I'VE BEEN A MEMBER OF A
CHURCH FOR OVER 10 YEARS.
WE'VE NEVER MISSED A TIME
PAYING OUR TITHES.
LATELY I'VE NOTICED THAT
THINGS ARE NOT BEING DONE
WITH THE THIEDGE TITHES THAT THE
BIBLE SAYS.
THERE ARE NEW MOTORCYCLES
PURCHASED AND R.V.s AND
SO ON.
THERE ARE NO PROGRAMS TO
HELP THE NEED.
I FEEL THE TITHES HAVE
BEEN USED TO BENEFIT THE
PASTOR AND HIS SON'S
SINGING CAREER.
I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GO
BACK THERE BECAUSE OF THE
ISSUES THAT ARE GOING ON.
I STILL PAY MY TITHES, BUT
I'M THINKING ABOUT
STOPPING.
I WANT TO DO GOD'S WILL,
BUT THIS ISN'T RIGHT.
PLEASE HELP.
I WANT TO DO THE RIGHT
THING."
Pat: A CHURCH SHOULD
HAVE A BOARD OF TRUSTEES
THAT HANDLES FINANCIAL
MATTERS.
THERE IS A MISUSE OF
FUNDS -- I DON'T KNOW HOW
MUCH OF THAT MAY BE
ILLEGAL.
BUT WHATEVER IT IS, IT IS
WRONG.
THE FIRST THING YOU MIGHT
DO IS TO BRING THIS UP
WITH THE CONGREGATION OR
WITH THE ELDERS, WHOEVER
RUNS OF THE CHURCH YOU'RE
IN AND SEE IF THEY CAN'T
DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
BUT ON THE OTHER HAND,
IT'S SO EASY IN TODAY'S
WORLD TO GO TO ANOTHER
CHURCH.
YOU JUST SAY, SEE YOU
LATER AND YOU GO DOWN THE
STREET TO THE NEXT CHURCH.
Terry: BUT IF YOU HAD
QUESTIONS LIKE THIS, YOU
WOULDN'T KEEP PAYING YOUR
TITHE THERE.
Pat: NO, YOU
WOULDN'T.
YOU'RE FO NOT GIVING TO THE
MINISTRY.
YOU'RE GIVING TO JESUS.
BUT IN ANY EVENT, THAT'S
THE DEAL.
IF YOU REALLY WANT TO DO
IT RIGHT, GO TO THE ELDERS
AND SAY, LOOK, THERE IS A
SERIOUS PROBLEM WE'VE GOT
TO DEAL WITH.
AND MAYBE THEY CAN CORRECT
IT.
AND LIFE WILL GO ON AS
NORMAL.
Terry: RIGHT.
HERE IS A VIEWER WHO SAYS,
"I'VE HEARD WE CAN RECEIVE
CERTAIN CROWNS IN HEAVEN,
DEPENDING ON WHAT WE HAVE
OR HAVEN'T DONE HERE ON
EARTH.
I'M SOMEONE WHO HAS NEVER
HAD A PHYSICAL
RELATIONSHIP OF ANY TIME.
WILL I RECEIVE A CROWN IF
I REMAIN A VIRGIN UNTIL
THE DAY I DIE?
AND WHAT ARE SOME OF THE
OTHER CROWNS ONE CAN
RECEIVE?"
Pat: I DON'T KNOW
ANYTHING ABOUT CROWNS
BEING GIVEN TO A VIRGIN,
DO YOU?
Terry: NO.
Pat: PROSTITUTION IS
GIVING YOURSELF TO A
DEMONIC BEING.
AND YOU'VE KEPT YOURSELF
FREE FROM THAT TYPE OF
HARASSI.
BUT THE BOOK OF DANIEL
SAYS, THEY THAT ARE WISE
SHALL SHINE LIKE THE
STARS.
AND THEY THAT LEAD MANY TO
RIGHTEOUSNESS, LIKE THE
STARS IN THE SKY, SO THAT
THE IDEA OF HAVING WISDOM
AND DOING EVANGELISM IS
LIKE THE STARS.
IT SAYS YOU'LL BE LIKE THE
STARS.
Terry: MARTHA SAYS,
"THESE DAYS THE WORLD IS
FULL OF TECHNOLOGY.
I WANT TO SAY THAT I HATE
BIBLE APPS BECAUSE SOME
PEOPLE ARE NOT USING REAL
BIBLES.
THE BIBLE IS A POWERFUL
TOOL FROM GOD, AND EVEN
SOME PASTORS ARE USING
THEIR COMPUTERS TO READ
BIBLE VERSES INSTEAD OF
REAL BIBLES.
I THINK IT IS WRONG.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?"
Pat: I MEAN, HEY, I
GET THAT KINDLE THING AND
I HAVE DOZENS OF BOOKS
THAT I GET ON THE iPAD.
AND I READ THEM ON
THE iPAD BECAUSE IT IS
EASIER.
Terry: IT IS AS REAL
AS IF YOU HOLD THEM IN
YOUR HAND.
Pat: BUT THE THING OF
IT IS YOU CAN GET THEM --
YOU CALL UP AND THEY PUT
THE BOOK ON YOUR MACHINE
AND IT TAKES THEM ABOUT 60
SECONDS TO UNLOAD A WHOLE
BOOK.
AND THERE IT IS.
AND IT COST YOU A FRACTION
OF WHAT IT DOES IF YOU BUY
IT IN HARDBACK.
THERE ISN'T ANYTHING WRONG
WITH THAT.
BUT SOME OF THESE BIBLE
APPS, I AGREE, IF IT
SLICES AND DICES THE
BIBLE -- YOU NEED TO HAVE
THE BIBLICAL IN CONTEXT.
I LIKE A BOOK, IN TERMS OF
THE BIBLE, WHERE YOU CAN
STUDY IT AND TURN THE
PAGES.
Terry: THIS IS MARY
WHO SAYS, "MY LIVE-IN
BOYFRIEND IS VERBALLY AND
PHYSICALLY ABUSIVE.
ALTHOUGH HE HAS BEEN IN
JAIL FOR IT, HE CAN'T GET
HIS TEMPER UNDER CONTROL.
HE IS A GOOD MAN
UNDERNEATH HIS ANGER.
I BELIEVED I COULD LOVE
HIM ENOUGH TO MAKE HIM
WANT TO CHANGE.
I BELIEVED I COULD BE AN
EXAMPLE FOR HIM.
I ALSO BELIEVED THIS IS
WHAT GOD WANTED ME TO DO.
NOW I HAVE DOUBTS AND
FEARS THAT I MAY HAVE
TAKEN ON MORE THAN I CAN
HANDLE.
IT'S NOT AN OPTION TO JUST
LEAVE.
I CAN'T WALK AWAY, BUT I
DON'T THINK THIS IS GOING
TO WORK.
PLEASE HELP ME."
Pat: GOD DOES NOT
WANT YOU TO LIVE IN A
RELATIONSHIP OF COMMON LAW
ACTIVITY.
YOU'RE NOT MARRIED.
THERE WAS A WOMAN BY THE
WELL IN SAMARIA, AND JESUS
SAID, GIVE ME SOME WATER.
AND SHE SAID, YOU KNOW --
ALL OF THAT STUFF.
AND HE SAID, GO CALL YOUR
HUSBAND.
AND SHE SAID, I HAVEN'T
GOT A HUSBAND.
AND HE SAID, YOU'RE RIGHT.
YOU'VE HAD FIVE OF THEM,
AND THE ONE YOU'RE LIVING
WITH IS NOT YOUR HUSBAND.
THAT RELATIONSHIP IS WRONG
AND YOU NEED TO GET IT
STRAIGHTENED OUT AND
LEGALIZE IT.
THAT'S ALL OF THE TIME
WE'VE GOT.
