Wendy: TODAY...WILL

THE LONE STAR STATE LIGHT

ONE UP?

THERE IS A LOT OF

OPPORTUNITY FOR MONEY TO

BE SPENT AND FOR THE

GOVERNMENT TO COLLECT IT.

Wendy: HEAR WHAT IS

BEHIND THE PUSH TO

LEGALIZE MARIJUANA.

> PLUS...A BROKEN FALL

AND A BROKEN ARM.

IT SNAPPED.

Wendy: WATCH HER DEFY

HER DOCTORS AND GET

HEALED.

I SAID, JESUS IS GOING

TO HEAL ME.

Wendy: AND FROM

BRAVO'S "THICKER THAN

WATER," THE GODFATHER OF

GOSPEL JOINS TODAY.

*

Pat: WELL, WELCOME,

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.

TERRY, THERE IS A

BREAKTHROUGH WE'RE GOING

TO TALK ABOUT.

LORIE JOHNSON HAS

DISCOVERED ABOUT 18 STEPS

THAT CAN BE TAKEN TO

PREVENT ALZHEIMER'S.

Terry: WOW, THAT IS

HUGE!

Pat: IT IS VERY, VERY

SIGNIFICANT.

WE'RE GOING TO HAVE IT ON

THIS PROGRAM TODAY.

Terry: ABSOLUTELY.

LOTS OF PEOPLE CONTENDING

WITH THAT.

Pat: IT IS A HIDEOUS

DISEASE, AND PEOPLE

HAVEN'T KNOWN WHAT TO DO.

APPARENTLY THE RESEARCHERS

HAVE DISCOVERED SOMETHING

THAT IS GOING TO BE VERY,

VERY IMPORTANT.

SHIFTING, THOUGH, ARE WE

AT RISK OF A HACK ATTACK?

THE F.B.I. IS AFRAID THAT

WE ARE.

THEY'RE TELLING THE STATE

OFFICIALS THAT THEY NEED

TO BOOST THEIR

CYBER-SECURITY BECAUSE

RUSSIAN HACKERS MAY HAVE

STOLEN INFORMATION OUT OF

ELECTION COMPUTERS.

Terry: WELL, THOSE

ATTACKS TARGETED SYSTEMS

IN ILLINOIS AND ARIZONA.

AND IT MAY BE THE OPENING

SALVOS IN A NEW TYPE OF

CYBER-WARFARE.

CHARLENE AARON HAS THE

STORY.

Charlene: THE F.B.I.

IS WARNING STATE OFFICIALS

TO BOOST THEIR ELECTION

SECURITY IN LIGHT OF

EVIDENCE THAT HACKERS

TARGETED DATA SYSTEMS IN

ARIZONA AND ILLINOIS.

IN A CONFIDENTIAL FLASH

ALERT, FIRST REPORTED BY

YAHOO NEWS, THEY ADVISED

STATES TO SCAN THEIR

SYSTEMS FOR SPECIFIC SIGNS

OF HACKING.

OFFICIALS DESCRIBED THE

HACKER THREAT AT CREDIBLE

AND SIGNIFICANT, AN EIGHT

ON A SCALE OF ONE TO 10.

IN ILLINOIS IN JULY,

HACKERS BREACHED THE STATE

BOARD OF ELECTIONS.

THE "WASHINGTON POST"

REPORTING THEY PUT UP TO

200,000 PERSONAL VOTER

RECORDS AT RISK, INCLUDING

VOTERS' NAMES, ADDRESSES,

BIRTH DATES, AND OTHER

PERSONAL INFORMATION.

IN ARIZONA, HACKERS FORCED

THE STATE TO SHUT DOWN ITS

VOTER REGISTRATION SYSTEM

FOR NEARLY A WEEK.

BOTH BREACHES ARE THE

LATEST INDICATION OF

POSSIBLE RUSSIAN INTEREST

IN U.S. ELECTIONS AND

PARTY OPERATIONS.

EARLIER THIS YEAR, HACKERS

COMPROMISED THE COMPUTERS

OF THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL

COMMITTEE, PRODUCING

EMBARRASSING E-MAILS FOR

THE D.N.C. ON THE EVE OF

HILLARY CLINTON'S

NOMINATION AT THE PARTY'S

PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE.

RUSSIAN HACKERS HAVE ALSO

MANAGED TO HACK INTO THE

COMPUTERS AT THE "NEW YORK

TIMES".

THE HACKS ARE THE LATEST

POTENTIAL OF CYBER-WARFARE

AGAINST THE U.S.,

SOMETHING THAT THREATENS

THE U.S. MILITARY,

BUSINESSES, AND MORE.

SOMETHING THE WHITE HOUSE

HAS ACKNOWLEDGED IN THE

PAST.

THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS

MATTER.

IT DOES POSE A SIGNIFICANT

THREAT, NOT JUST TO THE

AMERICAN PEOPLE, BUT ALSO

TO OUR NATIONAL SECURITY

AND TO OUR ECONOMY.

Charlene: NOW THE

OBAMA ADMINISTRATION IS

SEEKING TO PUT MORE

EMPHASIS ON DEVELOPING

CYBER-WEAPONS TO TRY TO

PREVENT SUCH ATTACKS AND

PUNISH INTRUDERS INTO U.S.

NETWORKS.

REUTERS REPORTS THE PLAN

CALLS FOR E ELEVATING THE

STATURE OF THE PENTAGON'S

CYBER-COMMAND, EQUAL TO

COMBAT BRANCHES OF THE

MILITARY, SUCH AS THE

CENTRAL AND PACIFIC

COMMAND.

THEY HAVE ALREADY CARRIED

OUT CYBER-ATTACKS AGAINST

ISIS.

SO THE HACKING WARNING BY

THE F.B.I. IS ONLY A

LATEST OF THE FUTURE

WARNING THAT THE WARFARE

WON'T BE JUST ON THE

BATTLE FIELD.

IT WILL BE CARRIED OUT BY

COMPUTERS AND COULD COVER

EVERY ASPECT OF LIFE.

CHARLENE AARON, CBN NEWS.

Pat: THANKS,

CHARLENE.

IN THE POLITICAL NEWS, IT

LOOKS LIKE DONALD TRUMP IS

MOVING AHEAD VERY

DRAMATICALLY AGAINST

HILLARY CLINTON.

HE IS UP ABOUT SEVEN

POINTS IN THE REUTER-IPSOS

POLL.

SO THE GAP HAS GONE FROM

12 TO FIVE PERCENTAGE

POINTS.

IN SOME POLLS, ACTUALLY,

TRUMP IS AHEAD, WHICH IS

AMAZING IN THE SHORT

LENGTH OF TIME.

DONALD TRUMP HAS LINKED

NATIONAL SECURITY TO UMA

ABADIN'S DECISION TO

SEPARATE FROM HER HUSBAND

OVER HIS LATEST SEXTING

SCANDAL.

Efrem: HUMA ABA DIRNBIN

HAS BEEN AT CLINTON'S SIDE

FOR DECADES.

SHE WAS HUMILIATED IN

2011, WHEN HER HUSBAND,

FORMER CONGRESSMAN ANTHONY

WEINER WAS CAUGHT SEXTING.

SHE HAS ANNOUNCED THAT THE

TWO ARE NOW SEPARATING,

AND DONALD TRUMP IS

BLASTING CLINTON OVER THE

INCIDENT, SUGGESTING THAT

WEINER'S ACTIONS COULD IS

ENDANGERED NATIONAL

SECURITY.

BECAUSE WEINER MAY HAVE

HAD CLOSE PROXIMITY TO

HIGHLY CLASSIFIED

INFORMATION.

BUT HE DIDN'T OFFER ANY

EVIDENCE THAT WEINER HAD

EVIDENCE TO CLASSIFIED

MATERIAL.

PAT?

Pat: I WONDER WHAT IS

WRONG WITH WEINER.

HE APPARENTLY HAD SOME

PSYCHOLOGICAL QUIRK.

HE TEXTED HE WAS NEXT TO A

LITTLE BABY, AND HE HAD

HIS UNDERWEAR ON AND HE

WAS TEXTING TO SOME WOMEN

AND DESCRIBING ALL OF THE

STUFF THAT HE DOES.

HE IS JUST TERRIBLE.

BUT IT IS NOT JUST THE

FACT THAT SHE IS MARRIED

TO A SEX ADDICT, BUT SHE

ALSO HAS A MOTHER WHO IS A

DEDICATED, HARD-CORE

MUSLIM, WHO HAS WRITTEN

BOOKS ABOUT THE TREATMENT

OF WOMEN, WHICH IS

HORRIFYING TO THE AVERAGE

WOMAN.

AND YOU WONDER WHEN THAT'S

GOING TO COME OUT, AND HOW

A WOMAN WHO HAS THAT KIND

OF TENDENCY, OR A FAMILY

WITH A FAMILY THAT HAS

THESE TENDENCIES, COULD

POSSIBLY BE CONSIDERED AS

THE CHIEF-OF-STAFF OF A

CLINTON WHITE HOUSE.

IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE

AT ALL.

JOHN?

John: PAT, HILLARY

CLINTON HAS BEEN THE

SUBJECT OF ENDANGERING

NATIONAL SECURITY, COMING

UNDER FIRE IN RECENT

MONTHS FOR HER USE OF AN

UNSECURED PERSONAL

COMPUTER SERVER FOR HER

GOVERNMENT E-MAILS WHEN

SHE WAS SECRETARY OF

STATE.

NOW MORE OF THOSE E-MAILS

WILL BE RELEASED NEXT

MONTH BY ORDER OF A

FEDERAL JUDGE.

ONE SMALL WATCHDOG GROUP

HAS BEEN BEHIND THE MOVE

TO GET THOSE RECORDS

RELEASED.

JENNA BROWDER BRINGS US

THIS LOOK.

Reporter: NEW

INVESTIGATION INTO HILLARY

CLINTON'S E-MAILSMENT.

HILLARY CLINTON'S

E-MAILS, AGAIN THE TOPIC

OF A HEARING IN

WASHINGTON.

Reporter: MORE THAN

15,000 E-MAILS UNCOVERED

BY THE F.B.I.

THE INTERMINGLEING

INTERESTS.

JUDICIAL WATCH, THE

WATCHDOG ORGANIZATION.

JUDICIAL WATCH.

JUDICIAL WATCH.

Reporter: THE GROUP

BEHIND IT ALL, JUDICIAL

WATCH, A SMALL BUT

INFLUENTIAL WATCHDOG, MADE

UP OF ONLY ABOUT 50

PEOPLE.

WE'VE BEEN BUSY.

IT IS AS A RESULT OF OUR

PERSEVERANCE AND OUR

LITIGATION.

Reporter: PRESIDENT

TOM FINTON HEADS UP THE

TEAM THAT IS HELPING TO

SHAPE THE POLITICAL AND

MEDIA DISCUSSION WITH

THESE LATEST REVELATIONS.

JUDICIAL WATCH IS A

NON-PROFIT EDUCATIONAL

FOUNDATION.

WE'RE NON-PARTISAN.

WE'RE NEITHER REPUBLICAN

NOR CONSERVATIVE.

OUR GOAL IS TO EDUCATE THE

AMERICAN PEOPLE OF WHAT

ITS GOVERNMENT IS UP TO.

Reporter: HE SHOWED

THIS AROUND THE D.C.

OFFICE, AND AT WORK MOSTLY

LAWYERS AND INVESTIGATORS

NOSE-DEEP IN LITIGATION.

THE GREAT OLD AMERICAN

SYSTEM ALLOWS US TO GET

ACCESS FROM THE COURTS, IF

THE GOVERNMENT DOESN'T

TURN OVER DOCUMENTS.

AND JUDICIAL WATCH IS

DOING THINGS IN TERMS OF

GETTING ACCESS INFORMATION

ABOUT THE I.R.S. SCANDAL

AND BENGHAZI, AND OF

COURSE, THE CLINTON

E-MAILS THAT CONGRESS

WASN'T ABLE TO GET, OR ITS

UNINTERESTED IN GETTING,

AND THE REST OF THE MEDIA

ISN'T TERRIBLY INTERESTED

IN GETTING.

Reporter: JUDICIAL

WATCH SCOOPING 60 MINUTES,

2020, AND OTHER MAINSTREAM

INVESTIGATIVE UNITS.

I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW

OFTENTIMES WE'LL SEE

SOMETHING IN THE NEWS THAT

IS EXTRAORDINARY AND PENAL

PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT,

BUT WE'RE THE ONLY ONES

ASKING THE FOLLOWUP

QUESTIONS TO THE AGENCIES

TO FIND OUT THE DETAIL.

Reporter: AND FROM

BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE --

WE SUED THE BUSH

ADMINISTRATION TWICE AS

MUCH AS WE SUED THE

CLINTON ADMINISTRATION.

BUT THEY'RE COMPLETELY

OPPOSED TO TRANSPARENCY.

DONALD TRUMP HAMMERED

CLINTON ON THIS SPECIFIC

ISSUE THAT WILL NOT GO

AWAY FROM HER CAMPAIGN.

Reporter: AND FOR

THOSE SKEPTICAL ABOUT THE

TIMING OF THE RELEASE OF

THESE LATEST E-MAILS --

SHE TRIED TO SUPPRESS

THIS FOR YEARS.

THE COVERUP UNRAVELED.

A LOT OF THE DOCUMENTS

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, THE

FOUNDATION, WERE GIVEN TO

THE STATE DEPARTMENT IN

SEPTEMBER OF 2015, AND

WE'RE ONLY GETTING THEM

NOW?

Reporter: FINTON SAYS

WE CAN EXPECT MORE

REVELATION IN THE DAYS

LEADING UP TO THE ELECTION

AND EVEN AFTER.

WE'RE GOING TO KEEP ON

PURSUING THESE CLINTON

E-MAILS, AND KEEP ON

ASKING QUESTIONS OF THE

GOVERNMENT, NO MATTER WHO

WINS, TRUMP OR CLINTON.

Reporter: SO IN THE

END, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

DON'T GET BURNED.

IN WASHINGTON, D.C., JENNA

BROWDER, CBN NEWS.

John: THANKS, JENNA.

PAT, JUDICIAL WATCH MAY BE

SMALL, BUT IT HAS PROVEN

TO BE VERY EFFECTIVE.

Pat: IT CERTAINLY IS.

AND JUDGES ARE PART OF THE

HEAT.

BUT THE FACT IS THEY'VE

HELD THIS STUFF AND HELD

IT AND HELD IT, AND WHAT

ARE THEY TRYING TO DO?

THERE IS A COVERUP OF

MASSIVE PROPORTIONS.

WikiLEAKS CLAIM THEY

HAVE A BIG REVELATION

COMING OUT BEFORE THE

ELECTION.

IT USED TO BE THE MAJOR

ELECTIONS TO THE NATIONAL

ELECTIONS STARTED AFTER

LABOR DAY.

IT HAS BEEN HEATED UP

DURING AUGUST AT AN

INTENSE PACE.

BUT DONALD TRUMP IS

STARTING TO SPEND MILLIONS

OF DOLLARS ON TV ADS AND

OTHER ADS, STARTING AFTER

LABOR DAY.

AND, OF COURSE, CLINTON IS

GOING TO DO THE SAME

THING.

BUT, NEVERTHELESS, WE HAVE

BEEN SEEING AN ENORMOUS

AMOUNT OF ACTIVITY, AND

JUDICIAL WATCH HAS BEEN AT

THE CENTER OF IT.

IT WILL BE AMAZING WHAT

WILL HAPPEN IF WikiLEAKS

HAVE A BUNCH OF OTHER

THINGS.

I WOULD THINK THAT THE

CLINTONS ARE DOWN A FOX

HOLE, BUT WHO KNOWS.

THEY CAN BRAZEN ANYTHING

OUT.

THIS DRIP, DRIP, DRIP,

CHINESE WATER TORTURE IS

JUST BEGINNING TO HAVE AN

IMPACT.

AND PEOPLE ARE BEGINNING

TO SAY, WAIT A MINUTE,

SOMETHING IS WRONG.

JOHN?

John: PAT, DISTURBING

NEWS TO REPORT HERE, YIS

BURIED THOUSANDS OF BODIES

IN AT LEAST 72 MASS GRAVES

ACROSS IRAQ AND SYRIA.

THE MAJORITY OF THE

VICTIMS ARE YAZIDI.

17 OF THE 72 GRAVES HAVE

BEEN LOCATED.

THE NUMBER OF KNOWN

VICTIMS IS ANYWHERE FROM

5,000 TO PERHAPS MORE THAN

15,000.

ACTIVISTS BELIEVE THERE

ARE HUNDREDS OF OTHER MASS

GRAVES TO BE FOUND, BUT

SAY THEY CAN ONLY BE

EXPLORED WHERE THE

FIGHTING STOPS.

CBN NEWS HAS REPORTED ON

THESE MASS GRAVES WITH

CORRESPONDENT CHUCK HOLTON

REPORTING IN MARCH THAT

WILL WERE MORE MASS GRAVES

IN SINJAR THAN THERE ARE

FAMILIES LIVING THERE.

> TURNING TO HEALTH

NEWS, RIGHT NOW FIVE

MILLION AMERICANS ARE

SUFFERING WITH ALZHEIMER'S

DISEASE, THUNDER NUMBE AND THAT NUMBER

IS EXPECTED TO GROW AS

BABY-BOOMERS AGE.

BUT AS LORIE JOHNSON

EXPLAINS, A COMPREHENSIVE

NEW TREATMENT PLAN IS

BEING OFFERED THAT COULD

STOP ALZHEIMER'S IN ITS

TRACKS OR REVERSE IT.

Lorie: DR. DALE

BRETTTISON AND HIS TEAM OF

RESEARCHERS DISCOVERED

THAT ALZHEIMER'S IS CAUSED

BY 36 DIFFERENT FACTORS

THAT ALL NEED TO BE

ADDRESSED.

IMAGINE YOU HAVE A ROOF

WITH 36 HOLES IN IT.

IF YOU TAKE A DRUG, FOR

EXAMPLE, WHICH IS FINE,

AND THAT COULD POTENTIALLY

HELP, BUT IT IS ONLY GOING

TO COVER ONE OF THE 36

HOLES.

SO WE WANT TO BE ABLE TO

COVER THE OTHERS.

Lorie: THE DOCTOR AND

HIS TEAM DEVELOPED A

SERIES OF TESTS TO

DETERMINE EXACTLY WHAT'S

CAUSING A PERSON'S

ALZHEIMER'S.

THIS INCLUDES THINGS

LIKE LOOKING AT YOUR

EXERCISE AND THINGS LIKE

LOOKING AT YOUR DIET AND

YOUR NUTRITION, YOUR

HOMOCYSTEIN LEVEL, YOUR

PREGNINALONE LEVEL AND ON

AND ON AND ON.

WE GATHER ALL OF THE

PERIMETERS WE HAVE IN A

COMPUTER BASED ALGORHYTHM,

AND WE DESIGN AN INITIAL

PLAN.

Lorie: BASED ON THOSE

RESULTS, THEY FORMULATE AN

INDIVIDUALIZED PLAN TO

CORRECT THE PROBLEM.

LIFESTYLE CHANGES, LIKE

MORE SLEEP, NO SUGAR, AND

STRESS MANAGEMENT ARE A

BIG PART.

THEY TRIED IT ON 20 PEOPLE

IN THE EARLY STAGES OF THE

DISEASE.

19 OF THEM REGAINED THEIR

MEMORY.

SO IT REALLY GIVES US A

VERY DIFFERENT LOOK AT

WHAT ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE

IS.

AND INSTEAD SIMPLY SAYING

ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE,

PERIOD.

WE SAY ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE

DUE TO WHAT?

AND WE LOOK FOR ALL OF THE

DIFFERENT UNDERLYING

CAUSES AND WE ADDRESS EACH

ONE OF THOSE.

Lorie: HE SAYS IF

CAUGHT EARLIER ENOUGH,

ALZHEIMER'S CAN BE

REVERSED, EVEN PREVENTED.

FOR EXAMPLE, THERE ARE

SEVEN MILLION AMERICANS

WHO ARE E-4 HOMOZIGUS,

WHICH MEANS THEY HAVE TWO

COPIES OF AN ALS ALZHEIMER'S

RISK DISEASE.

CURRENTLY PEOPLE SAY DON'T

GET IT TESTED BECAUSE

THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN

DO.

WE WOULD ARGUE THAT IS

CHANGING AND THERE IS A

LOT YOU CAN DO.

Lorie: MORE TRIALS

ARE PLANNED IN THE U.S.

AND THE U.K.

LORIE JOHNSON, CBN NEWS.

John: YOU CAN WATCH

LORI'S ENTIRE REPORT AT

cbnnews.com.

Pat: EVERYBODY SAID

ALZHEIMER'S IS A

MYSTERIOUS THING AND WE

DON'T KNOW HOW TO TREAT

IT.

AND THESE DOCTORS ARE

SAYING THERE IS ABOUT 20

RISK FACTORS AND WE'LL

SHOW YOU.

PREGNETALONE, FOR

EXAMPLE -- I TAKE SOME OF

THAT.

WHY NOT.

BUT THERE IS THE HOMOSIS

SEEN -HOMOCYSTEIN AND ALL OF

THESE LEVELS THAT CAN

CAUSE IT.

SOMEBODY WHO HAS

ALZHEIMER'S GOES INTO

ANOTHER WORLD, HE OR SHE.

I THINK IT IS WONDERFUL

THIS INSTITUTE IS COMING

UP ON THESE THINGS.

WE'LL BRING YOU UP TO DATE

ON THAT.

I'LL ASK LORIE JOHNSON TO

PLEASE KEEP US GOING ON

THAT STORY.

I THINK THERE ARE SO MANY

PEOPLE WHO ARE AFFECTED,

ONE WAY OR THE OTHER, BY

ALZHEIMER'S.

EITHER THEY HAVE A FAMILY

MEMBER WHO HAS THIS

TERRIBLE DISEASE, AND IT

JUST BREAKS YOUR HEART TO

SEE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN

PEOPLE GET IT.

BUT IF THERE IS SOME WAY

IT CAN BE PREVENTED OR

REVERSED, THANK THE LORD.

Terry: IT IS LIKE SO

MANY THINGS WE TALK ABOUT

ON THIS SHOW, IT DOES

REQUIRE A LIFESTYLE

CHANGE.

Pat: THAT, IT DOES.

THERE ARE ALL KINDS OF

THINGS THAT THEY HAVE BEEN

POSTING, PREGNATALONE --

YOU CAN GET THESE THINGS

IN A VITAMIN STORE.

Terry: YES.

BUT ONE OF THE THINGS THAT

IS SURPRISING TO ME IS

THERE ARE TESTS YOU CAN

HAVE ACCESS TO THAT TELL

WHAT YOUR SPECIFIC NEEDS

ARE.

BECAUSE YOU DON'T WANT TO

JUST START PUMPING THINGS

INTO THAT YOU DON'T NEED.

Pat: WELL, I PUMP.

Terry: I KNOW YOU DO.

SO FAR SO GOOD.

Pat: IT SEEMS TO BE

WORKING.

Terry: WELL, OIL

PRICES HAVE DROPPED IN

RECENT YEARS, SO NOW SOME

TEXANS ARE SAYING IT IS

THE PERFECT TIME TO GET

HIGH BY LEGALIZING

MARIJUANA.

THE MARIJUANA INDUSTRY

IN TEXAS BRINGS MORE

REVENUE AND TAXES WITH IT.

AND THIS INDUSTRY KNOWS IT

IS GOING TO BE TAXED, AND

THEY WELCOME IT.

Terry: BUT NOT

EVERYONE IS ON BOARD.

HEAR BOTH SIDES OF THIS

ISSUE WHEN WE COME BACK.

Pat: WE'RE GOING TO

GIVE YOU A STORY RIGHT

NOW, AND I WANT TO

PREFERENCE THAT STORY BY

SAYING, I THINK THE TEXANS

ARE TOO SMART TO DO

ANYTHING AS STUPID AS THIS

STORY SUGGESTS.

SO I WANT TO TIP MY HAT TO

MY FRIENDS IN TEXAS AND

SAY, WHATEVER IT IS, DON'T

DO IT.

BUT ACCORDING TO THE NEWS,

THE LOW PRICE OF OIL HAS

BEEN GREAT FOR THOSE WHO

DRIVE CARS, BUT IT HAS

BEEN DEVASTATING FOR THE

BUDGETS OF OIL-RICH STATES

LIKE TEXAS.

AND SO THE INDUSTRY PEOPLE

ARE SEEING IN TEXAS --

THEY'RE SAYING WHY DON'T

WE LEGALIZE MARIJUANA AND

TACKS THAT.

TAX THAT.

AND I'M SAYING, DON'T DO

IT.

BUT CAITLIN WILL TELL YOU

WHAT PEOPLE ARE ARGUING.

Reporter: STATES THAT

DEPEND ON ENERGY REVENUE

NEVER PREDICTED OIL PRICES

WOULD GO BELOW $30 A

BARREL, OR WORSE, STAY AT

THESE RECORD LEVELS.

SEVERAL STATES LIKE ALASKA

AND LOUISIANA HAVE SEEN

CREDIT RATINGS DOWNGRADED.

TEXAS, ANOTHER MAJOR OIL

PRODUCER HAS BEEN ABLE TO

BALANCE ITS BUDGET THANKS

TO A MORE DIVERSE ECONOMY.

EXPERTS, HOWEVER, SAY THAT

A STATE LIKE TEXAS CAN

ONLY WEATHER THIS ECONOMIC

STORM FOR SO LONG.

ONE INDUSTRY TAKING NOTICE

OF THIS PROBLEM IS

OFFERING A NEW SOLUTION.

MARIJUANA BRINGS NEW

TAXES WITH IT.

WHETHER IT IS CULTIVATION

OR MANUFACTURING OR

PRODUCTION, THERE IS A LOT

OF OPPORTUNITY FOR MONEY

TO BE SPENT AND THE

GOVERNMENT TO COLLECT IT.

THIS INDUSTRY KNOWS IT IS

GOING TO BE TAXED AND THEY

WELCOME IT.

Reporter: LAST YEAR

THEY PASSED A STATE LAW

ALLOWING FOR VERY LIMITED

USE OF CANNABIS OIL OR

MARIJUANA FOR PATIENTS

SUFFERING FROM SEIZURES OR

EPILEPSY.

NOW ADVOCATES FOR

LEGALIZING MARIJUANA SAY

IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF

TIME BEFORE MORE

LEGISLATION GETS THROUGH.

I THINK WE HAVE

TREMENDOUS OPPORTUNITY TO

IMPROVE OUR COMMUNITY, AND

TO MAKE IT HEALTHIER.

Reporter: ACCORDING

TO THE MARIJUANA BUSINESS

FACTS BOOK, THE LEGALIZED

WEED INDUSTRY COULD PUMP

AS MUCH AS $44 BILLION

INTO THE NATIONAL ECONOMY

BY THE END OF 2020.

WE'RE EAGER TO SEE THIS

OPPORTUNITY SEIZED IN THE

STATE.

WE HAVE TO STUDY IT,

UNDERSTAND IT A LITTLE

BETTER, AND SHOW

LAWMAKERS, THIS IS A REAL

OPPORTUNITY WE HAVE.

Reporter: A MAJORITY

OF CONSERVATIVE LAWMAKERS

AREN'T QUITE AS OPTMISTIC.

GOVERNOR ABBOTT SAYS TEXAS

WON'T LEGALIZE MARIJUANA

AS LONG AS HE IS IN

OFFICE.

DAN PATRICK OPPOSES IT AS

WELL.

PHYSICIANS AGREE WITH THAT

POSITION.

WHY WOULD WE LEGALIZE

SOMETHING WE KNOW IS SO

INCREDIBLY BAD FOR YOU.

Reporter: THIS DOCTOR

WORKS AT A DRUG AND

ALCOHOL REHAB CENTER IN

DALLAS.

HE SAYS THE NOTION THAT

MARIJUANA CAN BE SAFE

SIMPLY ISN'T TRUE.

WE SEE PEOPLE HERE ALL

THE TIME ON MARIJUANA.

PROBABLY A GOOD 40% OF OUR

ADDICTS ARE PRIMARY

MARIJUANA ADDICTS OR HAVE

IT AS AN IMPORTANT PART OF

WHAT THEY'RE USING.

Reporter: BESIDES

OBVIOUS SIGHT EFFECTS,

SUCH AS SLOW REACTION TIME

AND THE CHANGE AND

PERCEPTION AND THE

INABILITY TO MAKE QUICK

DECISIONS, IT COULD POSE

OTHER HEALTH RISKS.

THE RISK OF LUNG CANCER

IS FOUR TIMES GREATER WITH

MARIJUANA THAN A

CIGARETTE.

Reporter: THE STATE'S

POWERFUL SHERIFF'S

ASSOCIATION IS ALSO TAKING

A STAND, SAYS IT DOESN'T

SUPPORT MAKING A GATEWAY

DRUG LEGAL.

THEY THINK

DECRIMINALIZATION WOULD

FREE UP COPS TO FOCUS ON

MORE SIGNIFICANT CRIMES.

THERE IS A LAW WE HAVE

BEEN CONSIDERING THAT

WOULD REMOVE JAIL TIME FOR

A SMALL POSSESSION OF

MARIJUANA AND REPLACE IT

WITH A FINE.

WE FOUND THAT 88% OF

SERIOUS CRIMES IN TEXAS

WENT UNSOLVED IN 2012.

IF WE LET THE COPS FOCUS

ON THE REAL THINGS THAT

MATTER, I THINK PEOPLE

SUPPORT THAT.

Reporter: THIS DOCTOR

LED A NUMBER OF TEXAS

POLICE DEPARTMENTS AND

SAYS HE DISAGREES.

JUST BECAUSE SOMETHING

IS LEGALIZED DOESN'T MEAN

ENFORCEMENT IS GOING TO GO

AWAY.

WE HAVE OFFICERS WHO HAVE

TO ENFORCE ALCOHOL

CONSUMPTION.

MANY TIMES IT BLEEDS OVER

INTO DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.

THOSE OFFICERS ARE STILL

DOING THAT, BUT THEY'RE

NOT ENFORCING WHETHER YOU

HAD THAT BEER LEGALLY.

Reporter: MARIJUANA

AFFECTS DRIVERS MUCH LIKE

ALCOHOL.

BUT THERE IS A MAJOR

DIFFERENCE ON HOW LONG IT

STAYS IN YOUR SYSTEM.

THE IMPORTANT

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN

MARIJUANA AND ALCOHOL IS

THIS: ALCOHOL STAYS IN

YOUR BRAIN FOR ABOUT 12 TO

18 HOURS.

MARIJUANA STAYS IN YOUR

BRAIN FOR BETWEEN SEVEN

DAYS TO SIX WEEKS.

Reporter: STILL, EVEN

IN CONSERVATIVE TEXAS,

THERE ARE SIGNS OF

SHIFTING OPINIONS.

ONE BILL PASSED LAST YEAR

ALLOWED CANNABIS OIL IN

THE TREATMENT OF E EPILEPSY

PATIENTS.

CAITLIN BURKE, CBN NEWS,

DALLAS, TEXAS.

Pat: THANKS, CAITLIN.

OUR FRIENDS IN TEXAS HAVE

GOT BETTER SENSE.

AND IT LOOKS LIKE GREG

ABBOTT AND HIS TEAM ARE

SAYING, NO, NO, NO, NO,

NO, WE'RE NOT GOING TO DO

IT.

THE PRICE OF OIL HAS GONE

UP A LITTLE.

IT IS CROWDING NOW $50 A

BARREL.

SO TEXAS IS GOING TO COME

BACK.

THEY'RE DOING JUST FINE.

IF I CAN USE THE TERM GOLD

RUSH IS THE PERMIUM, TO

GET ACREAGE TO DRILL

BECAUSE THEY THINK THAT IS

VERY PROLIFIC.

TEXAS DOES NOT HAVE TO

DEPEND ON MARIJUANA TO

MAKE IT.

I'M TELLING YOU THAT IS

JUST NOT THE CASE.

TERRY?

Terry: UP NEXT, AFTER

LYNNE'S BROKEN ARM WON'T

HEAL ON ITS OWN, DOCTORS

TOLD HER SHE NEEDED

SURGERY.

AND I SAID, NO, I'M NOT

GOING TO NEED AN ELBOW

REPLACEMENT.

JESUS IS GOING TO HEAL ME.

Terry: WATCH HOW HE

DID JUST THAT.

PLUS, WE'RE GOING TO BE

PRAYING FOR YOU.

SO DON'T GO AWAY.

WE'LL BE BACK IN A MOMENT.

Pat: WELL, ON THIS

BEAUTIFUL DAY, YOU'RE

WATCHING "THE 700 CLUB,"

AND WE'RE DELIGHTED TO

HAVE YOU WITH US.

GOOD THINGS ARE HAPPENING

ALL OVER.

AND WE'RE GOING TO TELL

YOU ABOUT THEM, IF WE CAN.

ONE IS COMING UP RIGHT

NOW.

IF YOU HAD HEARD LYNNE

LUCAS' SHOUT FROM A FEW

BLOCKS AWAY, YOU MIGHT

HAVE THOUGHT SHE WAS IN

PAIN.

BUT YOU WOULD BE WRONG.

LYNNE WASN'T SCREAMING.

SHE WAS CELEBRATING.

AND AT THAT MOMENT HER ARM

DIDN'T BREAK.

IT WAS HEALED.

WATCH THIS.

Reporter: ON EASTER

SUNDAY, 2015, LYNNE LUCAS

FELL WHILE STEPPING OUT OF

HER TRUCK.

I ENDED UP BRACING MY

FALL WITH THE ARM AND

PROCEEDED TO FALL DIRECTLY

ON THE BLACKTOP, THE

PAVEMENT.

Reporter: X-RAYS

SHOWED LYNNE HAD MINOR

FRACTURES IN HER REST,

ELBOW, AND FOREARM.

REQUIRING HER TO WEAR A

SPLINT AND SLING FOR SIX

TO EIGHT WEEKS.

THAT WAS HARD ENOUGH.

BEING A RIGHT-HANDED

INDIVIDUAL, ALL OF THE

THINGS I TOOK FOR GRANTED

I DEFINITELY DID NOT TAKE

FOR GRANTED ANYMORE.

Reporter: THEN ONE

NIGHT, A FEW WEEKS LATER,

LYNNE STEPPED IN A HOLE IN

HER YARD AND TRIPPED,

LANDING ON HER INJURED

ARM.

I KNEW I HAD DONE MORE

HARM.

I KNEW IT.

IT WAS, I THINK, SNAPPED.

Reporter: AFTERWARDS,

SHE SAW AN ORTHOPEDIC

SPECIALIST, MICHAEL

WILSON.

THIS IS THE RADIUS BONE

THAT MISS LUCAS HAS

FRACTURED.

THAT BONE ROTATES AND IT

CAUSES A GREAT DEAL OF

DISCOMFORT WHEN YOU MOVE

YOUR ARM.

Reporter: LYNNE HAD

TO WEAR A METAL BRACE THAT

RESTRICTED HER ARM.

SHE COULDN'T DO WHAT SHE

REALLY WANTED.

I HAD A GRANDSON FIVE

MONTHS OLD AT THAT POINT.

AND JUST WONDERFUL.

AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO HOLD

HIM.

AND THAT WAS REALLY TOUGH.

Reporter: LYNNE WENT

FOR A FOLLOWUP, AND BY NOW

IT HAD BEEN THREE MONTHS

SINCE SHE FIRST FELL.

THE NEWS WAS NOT GOOD.

MOST TIME WHEN YOU SEE

THIS BONE NOT HEALED AT

THREE MONTHS, IT IS NOT

GOING TO HEAL.

THAT'S KIND OF WHERE SHE

WAS AT.

SO WE HAD THE DISCUSSIONS

OF DOING FURTHER

TREATMENT, SUCH AS SURGERY

AND REPLACEMENT OF THAT

ABOUBONE BECAUSE I DID NOT

THINK IT WOULD HEAL.

Reporter: BUT LYNNE

THOUGHT DIFFERENTLY,

BECAUSE SHE ALWAYS

BELIEVED GOD WOULD HEAL

HER.

I PRAYED TO HIM FROM

THE BEGINNING THAT IT

WOULD BE HEALED.

I NEVER DOUBTED THAT IT

WOULD.

IMMEDIATELY I STOOD UP AND

I SAID, NO, I'M NOT GOING

TO NEED AN ELBOW

REPLACEMENT.

JESUS IS GOING TO HEAL ME.

Reporter: AT HER

DOCTOR'S RECOMMENDATION,

SHE AGREED TO MEET WITH A

SURGEON.

THEN A WEEK BEFORE THE

APPOINTMENT, LYNNE WAS

WATCHING "THE 700 CLUB."

Gordon: HAVE FAITH IN

GOD.

SITTING THERE WITH THAT

BRACE ON, ALL OF A SUDDEN

GORDON ROBERTSON STARTS

WITH A WORD OF KNOWLEDGE.

Gordon: THERE IS

SOMEONE, YOU HAVE A VERY

PAINFUL RIGHT ELBOW.

YOU'VE HAD A FALL AND IT

IS SWOLLEN.

GOD IS HEALING YOU.

HE IS TAKING AWAY ALL OF

THAT PAIN, ALL OF THAT

CHIP, AND EVERYTHING IS

BEING RESTORED RIGHT NOW.

BEGIN TO DO WHAT YOU

COULDN'T DO BEFORE.

BEGIN TO MOVE IT AND

REALIZE YOU HAVE NO MORE

PAIN.

YOU COULD HEAR ME

PROBABLY THREE BLOCKS

AWAY.

I'M PRAISING MY SAVIOR AND

SHOUTING, WOW, I KNEW IT.

> AND I TOOK THAT THING

OFF.

I JUST TOOK IT OFF.

BOOM, IT WAS DONE.

Reporter: LYNNE KEPT

THE APPOINTMENT WITH THE

SURGEON, BUT AS MICHAEL

EXPLAINS, THERE WAS NO

NEED FOR SURGERY.

THIS IS ONE MONTH AFTER

THE INITIAL INJURY, AND

THREE MONTHS FROM THIS

TIME, THIS EXTRA

DEMONSTRATES COMPLETE

HEALING.

AND YOU CAN SEE THE

FRACTURE HERE AND THE

DISPLACEMENT OF THE BONE.

THIS BONE SHOULD BE IN THE

CENTER.

AND THEN THREE MONTHS

LATER, YOU SEE THAT THE

BONE HAS ESSENTIALLY FULLY

HEALED AND IT HAS GONE

BACK TO ANATOMICAL

ALIGNMENT.

SHE WENT FROM THIS TO

THIS, FOUR MONTHS AFTER

SHE INITIALLY BROKE IT,

WITH NO SURGERY.

Reporter: LYNNE HAS

HAD NO PROBLEMS SINCE, AND

SHE IS ABLE TO DO

EVERYTHING SHE COULD DO

BEFORE THE INJURY,

INCLUDING PLAYING WITH HER

GRANDSON.

TO KEEP UP WITH HIM, TO

RUN WITH HIM, TO KNOW I

CAN LIFT HIM AND THERE IS

NO DISCOMFORT.

TO BE SECURE IN THE FACT

THAT HE IS SAFE IN MY ARMS

IS ABSOLUTELY THE ICING ON

THE CAKE TO ALL OF THIS.

Reporter: LYNNE GIVES

ALL OF THE CREDIT FOR HER

HEALING TO GOD.

NO MATTER WHAT YOU

FACE, WHETHER IT BE

FINANCIAL OR PHYSICAL OR

PERSONAL, THERE IS NOTHING

HE CAN'T HANDLE.

Pat: BROKEN BONE, A

JOINT THAT DOESN'T

ARTICULATE PROPERLY, AND

GOD ALMIGHTY JUST REACHED

DOWN AND TOUCHED HER LIKE

THAT.

WOW, HE IS SO POWERFUL.

> FOR MANY YEARS,

MARIANA FROM CALIFORNIA

WAS SUFFERING FROM A BACK

PAIN.

IT WAS DIFFICULT FOR HER

TO SLEEP AT NIGHT.

YEARS PRIOR SHE WAS

ADVISED THAT THE BONES IN

HER VERTEBRA WERE

THINNING.

NOTHING WAS SUCCESSFUL IN

BRINGING HELP.

ONE DAY SHE HEARD TERRY

SAY THERE IS SOMETHING

WITH A SPINAL CONDITION.

IT IS SOMETHING THAT

YOU'VE HAD FOR A LONG

TIME.

AND AFTER THAT, AFTER

PRAYING, HER BACK STARTED

TO FEEL BETTER.

SHE HAS NOW SLEPT

COMFORTABLY AND APPARENTLY

EVERYTHING IS OKAY.

Terry: THIS IS LINDA,

WHO LIVES IN OREGON, AND

SHE HAD BEEN SUFFERING

FROM TERRIBLE BED SORES.

ONE DAY SHE WAS WATCHING

THIS PROGRAM, AND, PAT,

YOU HAD A WORD OF

KNOWLEDGE ABOUT SOMEONE

WHO NEEDED A HEALING FROM

PAINFUL BED SORES.

LINDA CLAIMED THE WORD AND

SAID SHE WAS HEALED RIGHT

AWAY.

PRAISE THE LORD.

Pat: TERRY AND I ARE

GOING TO PRAY RIGHT NOW,

AND WE'RE GOING TO PRAY

FOR YOU.

LISTEN, THERE IS NOTHING

IMPOSSIBLE.

THE GOD WE SERVE IS SO

POWERFUL.

THE THINGS WE'RE ASKING

HIM TO DO ARE SO MINISCULE

IN RELATION TO THE OVERALL

POWER OF GOD, IT IS ALMOST

LAUGHABLE.

WITH GOD, ALL THINGS ARE

POSSIBLE.

I WANT YOU TO BELIEVE GOD

WITH US RIGHT NOW.

TERRY AND I WILL JOIN

HANDS AND WE'LL BELIEVE

GOD.

FATHER, I JOIN WITH MY

SISTER IN CHRIST IN THE

NAME OF JESUS.

GOD IS HEALING 10 CASES OF

LUPUS RIGHT NOW, ALL

ACROSS THIS AUDIENCE,

WHEREVER YOU ARE.

LUPE BULUPUS IS BEING HEALED.

TERRY?

Terry: THERE ARE

PEOPLE WHO HAVE SUFFERED

CONCUSSION FROM SKULL

FRACTURES, BEING HEALED

NOW IN JESUS' NAME.

Pat: NIGHT SWEATS

HEALED IN JESUS' NAME.

Terry: SOMEONE ELSE,

I DON'T KNOW WHAT CAUSED

THIS, BUT YOU'VE LOST YOUR

SENSE OF SMELL AND IT HAS

EVEN IMPACTED YOUR ACT TO

ENJOY FOOD.

GOD IS RESTORING THAT TO

YOU COMPLETELY RIGHT NOW.

JUST RECEIVE IT.

Pat: SPINAL STENOSIS,

THE LORD IS HEALING.

YOU'LL FEEL LIKE A HAND

RIGHT NOW ON YOUR SPINE,

AND ALL OF A SUDDEN

EVERYTHING IS RIGHT.

THE SWELLING IS DOWN, AND

EVERYTHING IS RIGHT.

AND IT ART TIC CALCULATES ARTICULATES

PROPERLY.

> IN JESUS' NAME, MY

BROTHERS AND SISTERS, BE

MADE WHOLE.

TOUCH!

AMEN.

AMEN.

PLEASE GIVE US A CALL AND

TELL US WHAT GOD HAS DONE

FOR YOU.

THE TELEPHONE NUMBER IS

THERE.

MORE THAN TELLING US, YOU

TELL THE LORD AND THANK

HIM.

BECAUSE THERE ARE PEOPLE

ALL OVER THIS AUDIENCE

THAT HAVE BEEN TOUCHED BY

GOD.

JUST RAISE YOUR HANDS AND

SAY THANK YOU, LORD.

I PRAISE YOU FOR WHAT YOU

HAVE DONE.

IF YOU WANT FURTHER

PRAYER, GO TO THE PHONES.

SOMEBODY IS HERE.

TERRY?

Terry: WELL, STILL

AHEAD, HE IS A SPEAKER, A

MUSICIAN, A BASKETBALL

PLAYER, AND A REALITY

STAR.

"THICKER THAN WATER'S" BEN

TANKER JOINS US LIVE, SO

STAY WITH US.

AND WELCOME BACK TO

"THE 700 CLUB."

A TRANSGENDER BATHROOM

BATTLE IN VIRGINIA MAY BE

ON ITS WAY TO THE U.S.

SUPREME COURT.

A VIRGINIA SCHOOL BOARD IS

ASKING THE HIGH COURT TO

DECIDE IF IT MUST ALLOW A

TRANSGENDER MALE STUDENT

TO USE THE MEN'S RESTROOM.

THE SUPREME COURT HAS

TEMPORARILY BLOCKED THE

STUDENT FROM USING THE

MEN'S BATHROOM UNTIL IT

DECIDES IF IT WILL REVIEW

THE CASE.

> BELGIUM WAS THE FIRST

COUNTRY TO LEGALIZE

EUTHANASIA, AND NOW PEOPLE

ARE TRAVELLING THERE SO

THEY CAN END THEIR LIVES.

BELGIUM PROVIDES ASSISTED

SUICIDE FOR VISITORS, AND

IT IS OFTEN FREE BECAUSE

IT IS COVERED BY THE

EUROPEAN UNION'S HEALTH

INSURANCE PROGRAM.

THE BILLS ARE SENT TO

FRENCH HEALTH CARE

PROVIDERS.

THE PATIENTS ARE KILLED

WITH A LETHAL INJECTION

ADMINISTERED BY A DOCTOR.

PAT AND TERRY ARE BACK

WITH MORE OF "THE 700

CLUB."

IT IS COMING UP RIGHT

AFTER THIS.

Terry: WHEN IT CAME

TIME FOR BEN TANKER TO

PICK A COLLEGE, HE HAD 35

SCHOLARSHIP OFFERS FOR

BASKETBALL AND 30 OTHERS

FOR PLAYING THE TUBA.

WHO KNEW?

HE IS A TRUE RENAISSANCE

MAN.

AND IF YOU WANT TO KNOW

HIS SECRET, IT'S BECAUSE

HE LIVES A FULL TANK

LIGHT.

Reporter: BEN TANKER

IS THE KING ON BREAST BRAVO TV

"THICKER THAN WATER."

WITH HIS MANY TALENTS, BEN

SAYS HE IS DOING WHAT HE

WAS BORN TO DO.

IN HIS BOOK, "FULL TANK OF

LIFE," HE SHARES THE

CHANGES THAT CLEAR YOU FOR

TAKE YOU'VE AND FUEL YOUR

TAKEOFF AND FUEL YOUR

TANK.

Terry: BEN, IT IS

WONDERFUL TO HAVE YOU

HERE.

THANK YOU.

Terry: I WANT YOU TO

TALK ABOUT YOUR

BEGINNINGS.

BECAUSE SOMETIMES WECt0t LET

THE STORY HAD HAPPENS

AROUND US DEFINE US.

BUT THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN FOR

YOU.

BUT YOUR BEGINNINGS WERE

VERY, VERY LEAN.

WE WERE POOR WHEN I

GREW UP.

I WAS 6' 6" WHEN I WAS IN

EIGHTH GRADE.

AND THEY'RE SAYING, TANK,

HOW MANY YEARS DID YOU

STAY BACK?

I'M NOT DUMB; I'M JUST

TALL.

BUT WE WERE VERY, VERY

POOR.

PUBLIC ASSISTANCE,

POWDERED EGGS AND POWDERED

MILK.

AND I THOUGHT THAT MY WAY

OUT OF THE GHETTO WOULD BE

PRO-BASKETBALL.

BUT I WAS A TUBA PLAYER.

SO I LOVED THE MUSIC, BUT

I LIKED THE BASKETBALL.

BUT THE BASKETBALL WAS

JUST BECAUSE I WAS TALL.

Terry: I MEAN, THAT

WOULD SEEM LOGICAL.

ANYONE SEEING A YOUNG GUY

THAT HAS THAT KIND OF

HEIGHT AS PART OF HIS GIFT

WOULD SAY, NBA.

MY PARENTS, THEY DIDN'T

HELP MATTERS BECAUSE WE

WERE SO POOR, WHEN I

WANTED TO CHOOSE BETWEEN

THE BASKETBALL AND THE

TUBA SCHOLARSHIP, I WANTED

TO GO WITH THE TUBA.

Terry: I LOVE WHAT

YOUR DAD SAID.

HE SAID, SON, WE'RE

BLACK, YOU'RE TALL, WE'RE

POOR, PLAY BALL.

[LAUGHTER]

Terry: A WISE MAN.

AND SO I WENT THE

BASKETBALL ROUTE, NOT

BECAUSE THAT WAS MY TRUE

HEART.

I WENT THE BASKETBALL

ROUTE BECAUSE I FELT THAT

WOULD BE A MEAL TICKET.

I WENT TO COLLEGE, AND

DROPPED OUT AFTER ONE

YEAR, AND WENT PRO IN THE

MINOR LEAGUE.

HERE I AM WITH AN

OPPORTUNITY TO WORK OUT

WITH JACK RAMSEY, THE

COACH OF THE PORTLAND

TRAILBLAZERS.

I MIGHT BE THE GUY COMING

OFF THE BENCH BEHIND

COLLIDCLYDETHE GLIDE.

WHO KNOWS.

BUT I GOT INJURED.

I GOT INJURED IN CAMP, AND

THEY CUT ME FROM THE TEAM.

HERE I AM WITH NO

EDUCATION, NO MONEY, AND A

JERRY CURL.

Terry: WOW!

I WANT YOU TO TALK ABOUT

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU THEN.

YOU WERE ALONE IN A DARK

ROOM.

WUV GOT TO FEEL LIKE

YOU'VE PLAYED ALL OF YOUR

CARDS, AND THIS IS WHAT

YOU'RE LEFT WITH.

EVERYBODY CAN LOOK BACK

AND HAVE THOUGHTS ABOUT,

GEE, IF I COULD DO IT OVER

AGAIN.

BUT WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU

IN THAT DARK ROOM?

I FELT KIND OF LIKE I'M

ON MY OWN CROSS.

AND GOD, WHY HAS THOU

FORSAKEN ME.

BUT I HAD ENOUGH SENSE TO

GET MYSELF UP AND GO TO

CHURCH.

I WAS BORN IN CHURCH, AND

MY PARENTS WERE MINISTERS,

BUT I NEVER ACCEPTED THE

LORD FOR MYSELF BECAUSE I

WAS KIND OF LIVING OFF

THEIR WINGS.

BUT AWAY FROM HOME,

NOTHING TO TURN TO BUT

GOD.

I WENT TO CHURCH REALLY TO

GET SOMETHING TO EAT.

I KNEW THEY WOULD HAVE

CHICKEN DINNERS.

I WENT TO GET A CHICKEN

SANDWICH AND MESSED AROUND

AND GOD SAVED.

THE MINISTER CALLED ME UP

AND TOLD ME TO PUT MY

HANDS ON THE KEYS.

I HADN'T PLAYED KEYBOARD.

I PLAYED TUBA.

Terry: THAT WAS A

PROPHETIC FORCE FOR HIM.

AND HE TOLD ME TO PUT

MY HANDS ON THE KEYS

BECAUSE GOD HAD A NEW

DESTINY FOR ME.

Terry: DID HE KNEW

YOU HAD A MUSIC

BACKGROUND?

HE KNEW NOTHING BUT I

WAS A FORMER BASKETBALL

PLAYER WHO HOBBLED INTO

THIS CHURCH.

AND I PUT MY HANDS ON THE

KEYS AND I BEGAN TO PLAY

LIKE A JAZZ MUSICIAN.

I DON'T KNOW IF IT CAME

THAT NIGHT OR IF IT WAS IN

ME THE WHOLE TIME.

BUT IF IT WAS IN ME THE

WHOLE TIME, I WOULDN'T

HAVE KNOWN IT BECAUSE I

WAS CHASING THE

BASKETBALL.

MY MISSION IN LIFE IS THEN

TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE WHO

ARE AT THAT CROSSROADS,

WHO DON'T KNOW WHAT

THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE

WHEN THEY GROW UP, THERE

IS LIFE AFTER DEATH.

I'M THE BIGGEST FAILURE IN

THE ROOM.

BUT GOD BLESSED ME.

I'VE HAD TWO DIVORCES.

I'VE HAD BANKRUPTCY.

I HAD MY PARENTS BOTH DIE

WITHIN A YEAR OF ONE

ANOTHER.

BUT NOW...

Terry: BUT NOW, YEAH

"THICKER THAN WATER."

A TV SHOW, A GREAT

WIFE, FIVE KIDS,

GRANDKIDS.

I AM HAPPIER THAN A WITCH

IN A BROOM FACTORY WITH A

90% OFF COUPON.

Terry: WHAT DO YOU

SAY TO PEOPLE WHO ARE --

WE GET QUESTIONS LIKE THIS

ALL OF THE TIME HERE IN

OUR "BRING IT ON", HOW DOI

FIND OUT WHAT MY DESTINY

IS, WHAT MY PURPOSE IS IN

LIFE?

WHAT DO YOU SAY TO PEOPLE?

LOOK AT YOUR LEFT HAND,

AND PUT IN YOUR LEFT HAND

WHAT MAKES YOU TICK.

WHAT DO YOU LOSE TIME

DOING?

TIME GETS AWAY FROM YOU

BECAUSE YOU LOVE IT.

THAT MAKES YOU TICK.

AND IN THIS HAND, LOOK AT

WHAT MAKES YOU MAD.

FOR ME, I LOVE MUSIC AND

MOTIVATION, AND HERE I

HATE POVERTY AND SICKNESS

AND DEPRESSION.

SO SOMEWHERE BETWEEN WHAT

MAKES YOU TICK AND WHAT

MAKES YOU KICK IS YOUR

PURPOSE.

THAT'S WHERE YOU FIND IT.

Terry: YOU KNOW, YOU

COULD HAVE MISSED YOURS.

AND THAT IS TRUE FOR A LOT

OF US.

WE PURSUE OUR DREAM,

RATHER THAN ASKING GOD,

WHAT DID YOU CREATE ME

WITH IN MIND?

EXACTLY.

I THINK WE GET CAUGHT UP

WITH GOLIATH.

I DON'T THINK GOLIATH WAS

SENT TO DEFEAT DAVID.

I THINK GOLIATH WAS SENT

TO MAKE DAVID FAMOUS.

THE BIGGER THE PROBLEM,

THE BIGGER THE VICTORY ON

THE BACK SIDE OF THAT

PROBLEM.

JESUS DIED, AND THERE WAS

LIFE AFTER THAT DEATH.

THERE WAS LIFE AFTER THE

DEATH OF MY BASKETBALL

CAREER.

HAD I KNOWN THAT GOD HAD

ALL OF THIS PLANNED FOR

ME, I WOULD HAVE NEVER

DRESSED UP FOR P.E.

I WAS HIJACKED BY MY OWN

DREAMS, WHICH WERE NOT

REALLY GOD'S PLAN FOR ME.

Terry: MAYBE THAT IS

PART OF THE STRUGGLE

BECAUSE IT BRINGS US TO

SURRENDER, DO YOU THINK?

ABSOLUTELY.

I THINK IN TIMES OF

DEPRESSION, IN TIMES OF

CONFUSION, THAT'S WHERE

OUR CHARACTER IS

DEVELOPED.

BECAUSE RICHES CAN BE

DECEITFUL.

Terry: MAY BE THE

WORST.

AS A MOTIVATIONAL

SPEAKER, I SPEAK TO NBA

PLAYERS, AND THE REASON

THEY ASKED ME TO COME AND

TALK TO THE PLAYERS, THEY

SAID IT TAKES SOMEBODY

WITH MONEY TO TELL

SOMEBODY WITH MONEY THAT

IT IS NOT ABOUT THE MONEY.

Terry: BOY, THAT'S

THE TRUTH.

THAT'S THE TRUTH.

GOD HAS GIVEN YOU AN

AMAZING PLATFORM, AN

AMAZING GIFT ON MANY

LEVELS, BUT MUSIC IS ONE

OF THEM.

SO I'M GOING TO LET YOU GO

GET READY BECAUSE YOU'RE

GOING TO GIVE US A TREAT

TODAY.

ABSOLUTELY.

Terry: I WANT TO TELL

PEOPLE ABOUT YOUR BOOK,

AND THE BOOK IS CALLED

"THE FULL TANK LIFE."

AND DON'T FORGET TO CHECK

YOUR LOCAL LISTINGS FOR

"THICKER THAN WATER," AND

HIS LACE LATEST C.D.

NOW TO PLAY US TO BREAK,

HERE IS THE VERY GIFTED

BEN TANKER WITH "HOW GREAT

IS OUR GOD."

Terry: "ORPHANS'

PROMISE" HAS HELPED MORE

THAN 100,000 ORPHANS IN

MORE THAN 60 COUNTRIES.

EACH CHILD HAS A PERSONAL

STORY.

LIKE THE LITTLE BOY YOU'RE

ABOUT TO MEET.

HIS LIFE WAS IN DANGER

EVERY DAY UNTIL PEOPLE

LIKE YOU CAME TO HIS

RESCUE.

Reporter: EACH

MORNING ABU PRAYS WITH HIS

CLASSMATES AT THIS CENTER

WHICH IS SUPPORTED BY

"ORPHANS' PROMISE." HE

THANKS GOD FOR FRIENDS

BECAUSE JUST A FEW MONTHS

AGO HE DIDN'T REALLY HAVE

ANY FRIENDS.

[SPEAKING A FOREIGN

LANGUAGE]

EVERY DAY, WHEN HE SAW

THE OTHER CHILDREN GOING

TO DAYCARE, HE WOULD ASK,

MOMMY, WHY CAN'T I GO?

IT BROKE MY HEART TO TELL

HIM I DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH

MONEY.

HE WAS SO LONELY.

Reporter: WHILE HIS

SISTER WENT TO SCHOOL AND

HIS MOM LOOKED FOR WORK,

HE OCCUPIED HIS TIME

PLAYING IN THE NARROW

WALKWAYS NEAR HIS HOME.

[SPEAKING A FOREIGN

LANGUAGE]

MANY TIMES I WOULD COME

HOME TO FIND HIM PLAYING

IN DIRTY WATER BY THE

CREEK.

HE STARTED GETTING SICK

FROM THAT.

Reporter: ABU'S

FATHER ABANDONED HIM AND

HIS MOTHER WHEN HE WAS

JUST SIX MONTHS OLD.

WHEN SHE COULDN'T FIND

WORK, SHE BEGGED SOME

NEIGHBORS FOR SOME

PORRAGE.

I KNOW THEY DIDN'T HAVE

ENOUGH FOOD FOR

THEMSELVES.

THEY GAVE ME WHAT THEY

COULD BECAUSE THEY KNEW MY

BABY WAS HUNGRY.

IT WAS TIMES LIKE THAT

THAT I FELT LIKE GOD

DOESN'T EXIST.

Reporter: THEN A

LOCAL FAMILY FOUND OUT

ABOUT THE CHURCH AND TOLD

HER.

TODAY HE AND 23 OTHER KIDS

ARE SPONSORED BY CBN TO

COME TO THIS CENTER FOR

FREE.

I CAN SEE THAT ABU HAS

CHANGED.

HE TELLS NEW STORIES FROM

THE BIBLE AND TALKS ABOUT

THE 10 COMMANDMENTS.

Reporter: SHE FOUND A

JOB AND HAS A STEADY

INCOME.

AND NOW PEOPLE COME TO HER

WHEN THEY'RE IN NEED, AND

SHE ALWAYS HELPS THEM.

NOW I KNOW THAT GOD

EXISTS.

EVERYTHING HAS CHANGED

BECAUSE OF YOU.

THANK YOU, CBN.

Terry: ABU IS ONE OF

HUNDREDS OF PRECIOUS

CHILDREN LIKE HIM WHO ARE

RECEIVING AN EDUCATION,

KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE LOVE

OF GOD, AND THEY'RE

THRIVING IN A SAFE PLACE.

THEY'RE BEING FED

NUTRITIOUS FOOD EVERY DAY,

AND THEIR MOTHERS ARE

BEING GIVEN HOPE AND

OPPORTUNITY.

WE SAY THANK YOU.

CALL NOW, WE'RE WAITING TO

AND WE NEED TO HEAR FROM

YOU, SO WE WELCOME YOUR

CALL.

WANT TO "BRING IT ON"?

Pat: LET'S DO IT.

Terry: EMMA SAYS,

"THIS PAST YEAR MY FRIEND

AND I STRUCK A BOND WITH A

LADY WHO USED TO GO TO OUR

CHURCH.

I'M 16 YEARS OLD AND HAVE

FOUND WHEN I HAVE

QUESTIONS OR PROBLEMS WITH

MY FAITH, I TURN TO HER

AND ASK HER WHAT GOD WOULD

SAY.

I HAVE A HARD TIME HEARING

THE LORD MYSELF, AND THE

ENCOURAGEMENT SHE GIVES ME

IS SO HELPFUL.

MY PARENTS DON'T LIKE HER

SPONTANEITY, AND THEY'RE

NOT OKAY WITH THE FACT I'M

CLOSE TO SOMEONE WHO GOES

TO OOPT ANOTHER CHURCH.

I FEEL LIKE THEY'RE

CLOSING ME OFF TO THE ONLY

CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY

OUTSIDE THE CHURCH THAT I

HAVE.

MY PARENTS DON'T DISLIKE

HER.

SHE JUST DON'T FEEL SHE IS

RESPONSIBLE ENOUGH.

I'M STARTING TO FEEL

SHELTERED.

WHAT DO I DO?"

Pat: YOU'VE GOT TO

REMEMBER YOU'RE 16 YEARS

OLD.

YOUR PARENTS ARE

PROTECTIVE.

THEY FEEL RESPONSIBLE FOR

YOU.

AND THERE CAN BE A LOT OF

FOREIGN INFLUENCES THAT

CAN PREY ON YOUNG PEOPLE.

THEY WANT TO PROTECT YOU.

SO RECOGNIZE THEY LOVE

YOU.

THIS IS AN ACT OF LOVE.

YOU NEED TO VET THIS LADY

A LITTLE BIT MORE.

SHE SOUNDS LIKE A

WONDERFUL FRIEND, BUT AT

THE SAME TIME, YOU NEED TO

KNOW A LITTLE SOMETHING

ABOUT HER BECAUSE, YOU

KNOW, YOU READ TODAY

ABOUT, I MET SO AND SO ON

THE INTERNET, AND THE NEXT

THING YOU KNOW, SO AND SO

ON THE NIESME INTERNET IS A CHILD

MOLESTER, SO YOU NEVER

KNOW.

Terry: AND SHE SAYS,

THIS IS THE ONLY CHRISTIAN

COMMUNITY OUTSIDE OF THE

CHURCH.

AND IF SHE IS IN THE

CHURCH, THERE MUST BE

GROUPS AND FRIENDS.

Pat: THE PARENTS

DON'T LIKE HER BECAUSE SHE

DOESN'T GO TO THEIR

CHURCH.

IN TODAY WE'VE GOT OPEN

BORDERS, SO TO SPEAK, AND

THE DENOMINATION WALLS ARE

FALLING DOWN.

WHAT ELSE?

Terry: KAREN IS, "TWO

YEARS AGO, I WAS DIAGNOSED

WITH A RARE NEUROLOGICAL

DISEASE CALLING ME GREAT

PAIN AND INABILITY TO

WALK.

I THOUGHT WITH MY LOVING

HUSBAND AND MY

RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD, I

WOULD GET THROUGH THIS.

I WAS PUT IN A NURSING

HOME FOR INTENSE THERAPY.

DURING THIS TIME, MY

HUSBAND HAD AN AFFAIR AND

FELL IN LOVE AND LEFT ME.

THAT WAS WORSE THAN THE

PROBLEM.

WE ARE STILL MARRIED.

SINCE I DID NOT WANT THE

DIVORCE, I REFUSED TO GO

FORWARD WITH FILING AND HE

HASN'T EITHER.

WHAT DO I DO?"

THAT WAS TWO YEARS AGO.

Pat: I THINK YOU'VE

GOT TO MOVE ON.

IT'S BEEN TWO YEARS.

THE FACT THAT HE ABANDONED

YOU WHEN YOU WERE ILL, GOT

THIS GIRL PREGNANT -- HE'S

PROBABLY LOOKING AFTER A

CHILD NOW AND STARTING

ANOTHER FAMILY.

YOU NEED TO TAKE SOME

LEGAL ACTION, IF NOTHING

ELSE, TO GET SUPPORT.

HE IS SUPPOSED TO SUPPORT

YOU.

YOU EITHER NEED A DECREE

OF SOME KIND WHERE YOU GET

A DIVORCE OR A SEPARATION

OR SOMETHING.

BUT THERE NEEDS TO BE A

LEGAL DETERMINATION OF

YOUR STATUS.

BECAUSE IF YOU KEEP ON

GOING, YOU'RE GOING TO GET

WORSE AND WORSE AND IT'S

NOT GOING TO DO YOU ANY

GOOD.

Terry: DEB SAYS,

"PAT, THE INTERNET HAS

MANY PEOPLE SAYING THAT

THE U.S. DOLLAR WILL FAIL

SOON.

I UNDERSTAND OUR ECONOMY

IS IN SERIOUS TROUBLE, BUT

WHY SEPTEMBER 27, 2016 IS

THE DATE?"

Pat: LOOK, THERE ARE

A BUNCH OF NUT CASES.

Terry: HOW DO YOU

REALLY FEEL ABOUT THAT?

Pat: YOU CAN GET ON

THE KEYBOARD AND START

TYPING SOMETHING AND SEND

IT OUT ON THE INTERNET.

THEY HAVE NO VALIDITY

WHATSOEVER.

I DON'T KNOW ABOUT

SEPTEMBER 26th FAILURE.

Terry: THIS IS

VARTICIAN, WHO SAYS,

"THOSE WHO SLEEP WILL RISE

FIRST AND THEN WILL BE

CAUGHT UP WITH THEM.

I THOUGHT TO BE ABSENT

FROM THE BODY IS TO BE

IMMEDIATELY IN JESUS

PRESENCE.

WHAT AM I MISSING?

WHICH IS CORRECT?"

Pat: YOU'RE TALKING

ABOUT THE SECOND COMING OF

JESUS.

WHEN HE COMES BACK, THE

DEAD WILL RISE AND WE WHO

REMAIN WILL BE CAUGHT UP

WITH HIM IN THE AIR.

BUT THOSE WHO DIED ARE

WITH THE LORD.

> THAT'S ALL OF THE TIME

WE'VE GOT FOR THOSE

QUESTIONS.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

> WE LEAVE YOU WITH

TODAY'S POWER MINUTE FROM

PSALM 34: "THOSE WHO SEEK

THE LORD SHALL NOT LACK

ANY GOOD THING."

> WELL, TOMORROW

FOOTBALL SEASON IS HERE,

AND WE'LL HIT THE GRID

IRON WITH VIRGINIA TECH'S

STANDOUT LINEBACKER, AND

THE PAC WILL BE BACK, AND

THE CHEESEHEADS WILL AND

HERE.

Terry: TIME TO BE

ONE.

Pat: THAT'S ALL OF

THE TIME WE'VE GOT.

THANKS FOR BEING WITH US.

FOR TERRY AND WENDY AND

ALL OF US, THIS IS PAT

ROBERTSON, AND WE WILL SEE

YOU TOMORROW.

BYE-BYE.
