- Welcome to the 700 club.

Two trillion in new spendingand 2 trillion in new taxes.

The president is said to unveil one

of the most expensive spendingbills in American history,

while laying out his vision forthe nation's infrastructure.

So what's in the president's proposal?

And why will it be a hard sell,

not just for republicans,but for democrats, as well?

Our White House correspondent,Eric Philips, has more.

(swooshing)

- The president is hopingto keep the momentum going

from his first biglegislative win to achieve

some of his other major objectives,

but the price tag may be too high,

even for some in his own party.

- Since we passed theAmerican Rescue Plan,

we're starting to see newsigns of hope in our economy.

- [Eric Philips] During hisfirst presidential presser

last week, Bidencontinued his victory lap,

highlighting how the new $1.9 trillion law

is having an immediateimpact on the economy.

- Since it was passed, a majority,

a majority of economicforecasters have significantly

increased their projectionson the economic growth

that's gonna take place this year.

They're now projecting it will exceed 6%,

a 6% growth in GDP.

- [Eric] Now the president is gearing up

to unveil his next biginitiative that he says

will also bolster thecountry's financial outlook,

a multitrillion dollar planfor America's infrastructure.

The proposal includes $621 billion

to modernize transportationinfrastructure,

400 billion to help care for the aging

and those with disabilities,$300 billion to boost

the manufacturing industry,213 billion on housing

and $100 billion toexpand broadband access.

- He thinks it's responsible,it's the responsible

thing to do to propose a wayto pay for that over time.

So, and he also believes thatthere's more that can be done

to make the corporate tax code fair.

- You cannot tax and spendyour way to prosperity.

- [Eric] Economist Stephen Moore

served as one of former PresidentTrump's economic advisors.

He says all of thisspending is a bad idea,

especially when it will likely be paid for

in part by tax increases on businesses,

as well as wealthy families and investors.

- They're taxing you comingand going now under this bill

and it's gonna have, also,very negative effects.

This is going to be one of themost expensive spending bills

in American history, on topof the most expensive bill

in American history, that we just passed

less than a month ago.

- [Eric] The Bidenadministration insisting

the need is too great to delay.

- Now is the time to createmillions of good jobs

for American workers.

Now is the time to clear the backlog

and repair our highways, roads, bridges,

maritime ports, airports and more.

- We are now ranked 185th inthe world in infrastructure.

- [Eric] Still the plan's hefty price tag

may prove to be a hard selland not just for republicans,

who have said they won't support it.

- This is just, I want to stress,the beginning of a process

and the beginning of a negotiation

and there are a lot ofdemocrats, you know,

we know Manchin and Sinema in the Senate,

but House Democrats, as well, are saying,

"Actually, not so fast."

There may not be consensusto raise that much money.

- As far as taxes go,two big items are raising

the corporate rate from 21 to 28%

and raising capital gains taxes.

And there's more spendingon the way later this month.

The White House will present a plan

on what it's calling human infrastructure

with programs likehealthcare and childcare.

Pat.

- Well, Eric, not only arerepublicans opposing this,

but democrats are divided.

What do you think the chances are

that this monstrous bill is gonna pass?

- Well, the president has an uphill battle

when you think aboutit because of the fact

that he's being challenged on all sides.

We're talking about theleft, middle, and right.

More progressive democrats are saying,

"Hey, this bill's not big enough."

"More money needs to be spentin terms of infrastructure."

"You need to go even farther."

But then when you talkabout moderate democrats,

they are willing to considersupporting this bill,

but only if the state and localtax deduction is reinstated

and so far that has not happened.

Then you turn to therepublicans, who are already

shaking their heads, saying,

"Mm mm, this is too much money."

"We're talking aboutraising taxes too high."

In fact, just thismorning, word that a group

of top Republicans have formeda coalition to fight back

against the impending tax hikes.

So, there are some massive fault lines

that the president has to deal with

in order to keep this bill from, perhaps,

slipping through one ofthose major gaps, Pat.

- Hey, you know, a little aside,

you had a chance toask the press secretary

why they're calling it theBiden-Harris administration.

What did she tell you about that?

- Well, I mean, Pat, I mean,he was just pretty curious

that last week we sawsomewhat of a rebranding

on websites and otherofficial documentation

saying the Biden-Harris administration,

so I asked White House PressSecretary Jen Psaki about that.

Take a listen.

Is there anything to be read into

sort of the rebranding ofthe Biden administration

to the Biden-Harris administration?

- I would take from it thatVice President Harris is

an important partner.

She's the first in theroom, the last in the room,

on most occasions, if she's in town

and not traveling around the country.

It's a reflection of the important role

that she will play moving forward.

- A pretty reasonable explanation, right?

I mean, considering she is vice president,

but a lot of people arewondering if she's playing

a larger role behind the scenes

than the White House is overtly saying.

So, it's something thatfolks are definitely

keeping a close eye on, including us, Pat.

- Thanks Eric.

Well, you know what's amazing?

She's got this thing thatthey ask her, neurologists,

what all this laughter,when they talked about,

"Well, how about education?"

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

Well, it's to keep from saying something

while her mind is being engaged,

but it looks as ifshe's laughing at people

not getting educated,she's laughing at people

coming across the border.

I mean, it's not a very,you know, presidential look.

Well, before this huge proposal,

the U.S. budget is already $5.8 trillion.

And we aren't even paying for that.

The deficit in the federal budget

is expected to hit 3.4 trillion.

That's $3.4 trillion this year.

And in February, the CBO projected

that the nation's debtwill swell to $35 billion.

Now, you know, my secretarywas looking for some things

up for the 60th anniversaryof our broadcasting

and she came across a political editorial

in the Washington Star, March 9th, 1963.

And I thought this would be kind of funny

because my father was then a member

of the Appropriations Committeeof the United States Senate.

And let's take a look at that.

It's kind of, it's kinda cute.

- [Terry Meeuwsen] That wouldbe your father with the ax.

- Yeah, he's with the, there it is.

There's a, "Well who'sstealing our thunder?"

It was Senator Robertson trying

to cut a $98.8 billionbudget to whack it out.

And there's EverettDirksen and Charlie Halleck

looking at it as, "Who'sstealing our thunder?"

And he was trying to whacka budget of 98.8 billion.

My father would literallygo out of his mind

if he saw the wasteful spendingthat's going on right now.

- Yeah, the numbers todayjust exceed anything

you can-- I mean,

there's no way, Terry, they'reever gonna pay it back.

I mean, when you're talkingabout going in the tank

55, I mean $35 trillion, thatis such a staggering amount.

There is no way thatwe'll ever pay it off.

- [Terry] I don't think theyeven think about that, do you?

- Well, then I think about anything,

it's them winning the nextelection and his taxes.

Well, that was the Roosevelt, the mantra,

tax and spend and tax andspend and tax and spend.

Well, the spending is goingcompletely out of control.

And, you know, we do needhelp on our infrastructure,

there's no question about it.

Our roads have potholes,the bridges are falling down

and so forth.

So, if it was actually moneyspent for infrastructure,

it would be a payback very quickly.

But this isn't for infrastructure,

it's for free tuition,it's for internet access,

it's for all theseother pork barrel things

that the democrats want.

But if, you know, Obamahad an infrastructure built

and I don't think they spent anything.

He talked about shovel-ready projects,

but to my knowledge noneof them really got built.

He just wasted the moneyon their constituents.

Now, we do need some bridgesfixed up, we really do,

they're falling down, some of them.

And so there's noquestion that if we spent,

say it's a trillion dollars,if we spent that much

on really honest togoodness fixing up our roads

and our bridges and all these things,

it would be a good thing.

Well, in other news, morethan 4,000 people packed

into a space designed tohold a couple of hundred

and most of them are children.

The horrific images of this travesty

at the border are finally being released.

John Jessup has more on that.

(swooshing)

- Thanks Pat.

The Biden administration,for the first time,

is allowing news cameras inside

one of the overcrowded facilities

holding thousands ofmigrants at the border.

This is the center in Donna Texas.

Packed into a space meant to hold

only 250 during the pandemic,more than 3000 are minors.

The children stuffed into eight pods,

as many as 600 in each.

Texas Senator Ted Cruzvisited the Donna facility

just days ago.

He told Fox's Sean Hannity,the conditions are unhealthy

and possibly criminal.

- In terms of a facility like this,

if you had a school,if you had a childcare

if you had any facilitythat takes care of kids

that that was even a fraction of what

the Biden administration hasset up, you'd be shut down.

The public health authoritieswould go after you,

you would be fined, youmight even be prosecuted.

Just that morning, a dozenboys had tested positive

for COVID and they keepputting them in these,

these cramped locations.

- Officials also are raising questions

about the cost of taking care of the kids

once they're released from the facilities.

A vicious attack near NewYork City's Times Square

is sparking outrage.

A man stomped, kicked andyelled anti-Asian hate slurs

at a 65 year old Filipinowoman on her way to church.

Surveillance footage showsa security guard watching,

but failing to defendor give her first aid.

The woman was hospitalizedwith serious conditions.

38 year old Brandon Elliot ischarged with felony assault

as a hate crime.

Authorities say he wasalready on lifetime parole

for fatally stablingstabbing his mother in 2002.

Now this attack is on the same day

Attorney General MerrickGarland asked for a review

on how the JusticeDepartment can better fight

rising hate crimes against Asians.

Well, on the coronavirus front,

eligibility for vaccines is expanding.

Soon, more than a dozenstates are set to make

the shots available tothose over 16 years old.

And some good news for young people,

Pfizer BioNTech says itsvaccine is 100% effective

for adolescents.

Meanwhile, the growingnumber of vaccinations

is sparking a debate overso-called vaccine passports.

That's the idea that businessesand local governments

could require people to show evidence

of getting the shot beforethey could participate

in events or enter certain buildings.

The Biden administrationsays it will leave the issue

up to the states, but willprovide guidance on the issue.

Florida governor Ron DeSantis announced

that he'll issue an executive order

forbidding vaccine passports.

Pat.

- This is a monstrosity, folks.

They get your medicalrecords that you sign up

when you get the shot, they'llknow everything about you

and then they make you have a passport

if you want to travelanywhere in the country

or go, it's not going overseas,

it's going from stateto state or city to city

and you've got to have this passport.

This is a step towardBig Brother surveillance

and we should fight itwith everything we've got.

It sounds very benign.

Oh yeah, well you had a passport,

I've had a vaccine,now that means I can go

where I want to.

Uh uh, it means Big Tech isgoing to be watching you.

And, John, there's more about that, too.

- That's right, Pat.

Speaking of Big Brother, BigTech wants to track everything

you do and everything on the internet

and it seems they found a way to do it.

CBN's Dale Hurd has the story.

- [Dale Hurd] In the film"Songbird", it's 2024,

COVID is still around andphones act like informants

that report people to the government.

- [Robotic Female OnSpeaker] Anomaly detected.

Armed guards will be arrivingin four to six hours.

- Now a coalition of big tech

and mainstream media companies

are pushing new technologythat could turn your phone

or computer into an informant.

Everything created on adevice with a computer chip

could be tracked back to the author.

Everything.

Every post, every photo, every video

will have the creator'sdigital signature on it.

It's called the Coalitionfor Content Provenance

and Authenticity and it has the backing

of the biggest names in tech and media.

It's being applauded as a wayto stamp out disinformation

on the internet.

But who decides what's disinformation?

Big Tech will decideand will have the tools

to punish the person behind it.

If there was any online privacy left,

this new system being proposedwould put an end to it.

- It's not a bad idea totrack down any information

that's false or misleading or deceptive,

the problem is who are yougoing to put in charge of that?

- [Dale] Allum Bokhariwrites for breitbart.com

and is the author of"Deleted: Big Tech's Battle

to Erase the Trump Movementand Steal the Election".

- The people who havebeen put in charge of it

over the past four years,Silicon Valley companies,

they've abused that powerto crack down on information

and viewpoints that they don't like.

They can use it as a toolof political interference.

- [Dale] This new project could also help

the establishment media,which has been losing audience

and money to the alternative media.

- The entire media, the entireestablishment is onboard

with cracking down onso-called misinformation.

It's how they've censored the internet

over the past four years.

- [Dale] We asked thecoalition if the new technology

would have some sort of opt-out provision

or a safeguard to prevent itfrom being used as a weapon

against free speech.

The coalition did not respond.

Dale Hurd, CBN News.

- That Dale's reportingdepicts some scary scenarios.

- Well, you know, you lookat "The Book of Revelation"

and there's a time wherepeople could not buy

or sell with us, theso-called mark of the beast

and it does seem that we'regetting farther and farther

or closer and closer tothat kind of a situation.

There wasn't anopportunity in the old days

to really surveil an entire population,

but now, it could happen.

It can go into the depthsof the darkest Africa

or down into the jungles of of the Amazon

or wherever and follow you and it means

that nobody could escapeand the Bible says

nobody could buy or sellwithout the mark of the beast.

Well, it's almost likewe're heading that way.

You know, there was a book,"Slouching Toward Bethlehem",

it looks like some beastis slouching along,

but it's happening so fastand the technological wonders

that are being created, they all seem

so benign when they are.

Well, that's wonderfuland we'll give you card

that's gonna have something.

Visa now are the companies that the data,

well, I guess MasterCard, particularly,

has now got a card that,you know, it isn't just

a credit card, it's this cash card

and before long they can cancel out

your stock accounts, Imean, it wouldn't take much

to reach in and take away your money.

I mean, it's just one ofthose things that's happening.

So, be vigilant and what's gonna help us?

I tell you, the power ofGod is the answer, folks.

There isn't any other way to do it.

Terry.

- Well, still ahead.

He learned how to playchess in a homeless shelter

and within a year, he won aNew York Sate championship

at the age of eight.

So, how did a miracle liftthis boy from Nigerian refugee

to chess champion?

You'll see for yourself.

It's an amazing story.

Plus, why did Fox NewsAnchor Shannon Bream

jump at the chance to write a book

about the women of theBible and which woman

does she aspire to be the most like?

Shannon will tell usherself right after this.

(upbeat music)

- Just a quick program note.

Tomorrow we've got Maundy Thursday,

we've got Gil Amelio, the Head of Christ.

We're also going to be havingcommunion for the audience.

And so, I just say, ifyou've got a little wine

or grape juice or whatever and some bread,

we'll share it together on the program.

So that just, that the rest of you know.

Well, fans of Fox News know Shannon Bream

as the consummate professional anchor,

but there's a side toShannon you may not know.

It's the reason Shannonjumped at the chance

to write a book aboutthe women of the Bible.

So who is Shannon's favoritebiblical heroine and why?

Well, she shares that andmore in an exclusive interview

with CBN's Jenna Browder.

- Some might think womenplay a small secondary role

in the Bible, but that's just not true.

In her new book, Shannon Bream shows us

they actually play a central role.

- You know, Fox actually came to me

with the idea as theystarted their book label

and said, "We're thinkingabout doing this book."

"What would you think about it?"

And you know, normally, most of us,

in taking on a big project, would say,

"Let me think about it."

No, I just didn't hesitate.

- And that's how "The Women ofthe Bible Speak" came to be.

From Esther and Deborahin the Old Testament

to Mary, mother ofJesus and Mary Magdalene

in the New, Shannon divesdeep into their lives

and backgrounds.

- I knew a lot of these stories,

at least the basics about them,

but I found in digging in andI relied on some great experts

who helped me to understandthe customs of the time,

the language, how the wordsreally were interpreted,

what they mean and thathad given me great context

I hadn't had for a lot of these stories.

- [Jenna Browder] Thestories of brave, noble

and sometimes vulnerable or broken women.

Shannon includes the story of the woman

who suffered for 12 yearswith a bleeding issue.

- She'd gone to every doctor,spent every dime that she had,

she had nothing left and no answers.

And just learning that inthe context of that time

she would have been considered unclean.

She couldn't go to the temple to worship

or in the marketplace with other crowds,

it wouldn't have been acceptable for her.

- [Jenna] Yet, when she heard about Jesus,

she believed he could heal her.

- So, to think of the faith that she had

when she said, "I'veheard about this Jesus,

I just want to go and touchthe hem of his garment."

"I believe that willbe enough to heal me."

So she went into this crowdwhere she wasn't supposed to be

and instead of condemning her,

when she was immediately healedafter touching his garment,

Jesus turned around andwe're told in the gospels

that she fell down trembling before him.

- [Jenna] It's a storyShannon relates to personally.

For years, she lived in debilitating pain

due to an eye diseaseconsidered incurable.

Like the woman who touched Jesus's robe,

Shannon, too, receivedhealing through the help

of a great doctor.

- My husband and I prayed for this doctor

because I'd been to so many whohadn't been able to help me.

He's been an enormous,enormous help in my life

and I embarrass him sometimes, I think,

because I'll say to him in the office,

I see him so much,

don't forget you werean answer to my prayers

and he sort of, kind oflaughs, but it's true,

I feel that way about him.

- [Jenna] Shannon saysher eyes are in good shape

about 95% of the time.

And that's good becausethere's no slowing down

in the news business.

Host of Fox News atNight, Shannon breaks down

the day's headlines and interviews,

many of the big names behind them.

- What I always prayfor our show every day

is that our team will be excellent.

Like the verse, I thinkit's in "Caution" that says,

you know, "Do your work as unto the Lord

and not as a man," that we want to be

above reproach and we want to be the best

at what we do in serving our viewers,

that's what we're here to do.

So, that's the attitude thatI take toward it each day

and it helps keep me in line and I think

have some perspective onbalancing the tough news

we have to deliver.

- [Jenna] Shannon points toDeborah as an inspiration.

Like Deborah, Shannon, too,has a legal background.

- I want to aspire to belike people like Deborah.

I mean, she was a judgein the old Testament,

she was the leader of theentire nation of Israel,

so for people who thinkthat women were sort of

second class citizens in theBible, it's just not accurate.

- [Jenna] She writesabout how Deborah faced

insurmountable odds when God told her

to lead her nation into battle.

- And she stepped up andsaid, "Okay, let's go."

She didn't question himand she found the courage

to follow what he asked of her

and I think a lot of timeswe're asked to do things,

even whether it's reaching out to somebody

that we've had a disputewith or a stranger

that maybe we're supposed to help,

but it's out of our comfort zone

or to do something reallypowerful and courageous

like she did.

I hope that I would grow in my faith

to be unquestioning and ready to go

when God says, "Here's thisassignment I have for you."

- In addition to the women she features,

Shannon also has a chapter about Jesus,

who was the greatest championof women we've ever seen.

Jenna Browder, CBN News.

- Shannon Bream's book is called

"The Women of the Bible Speak".

You can get it wherever books are sold.

You've got an endorsementhere from Michael W. Smith,

you've got one from Max Lucado

and Missy Robertson withthe Duck Dynasty people.

It's a terrific, she's a,she does a marvelous job

in "Women of the Bible Speak".

Terry.

- Well, coming up,informative, entertaining

and highly unpredictable,Pat's unfiltered answers

to your questions.

George says, "Many times, as I'm praying,

the spirit seems to answer myquestions about situations."

"Is it normal for the Holy Spirit

to communicate with us like this?"

We've got your questionsand some honest answers

waiting in the wings.

Plus, this eight year oldbeat 73 seasoned players

at the New York State chess Championship.

Just two years earlier, he and his family

were fleeing Nigeria for their lives.

So, how did he do it and could he become

the world's youngest grand master?

Find out after this.

(upbeat music)

Paper pieces with tape.

That's how Tani Adewumibegan playing chess

with his brother in Nigeria.

A couple of years later,Tani took top prize

at the New York State Chess Championship,

beating 73 other players.

Tani was only eight years old.

No wonder this amazing boywants the world to know,

"I believe in miracles."

(upbeat music)

- My first thought is,"How do I beat them?"

I don't think of anything else.

- [Male Reporter] In the world of chess,

Tani Adewumi is a rising star.

He was eight years old when he won

the 2019 New York State Championship

in the K through third grade division.

He'd been playing less than a year.

- I had the confidence, but after I won

three games in a row, then I started

to really build up that good,good, good, stable confidence

that never goes away.

- [Male Reporter] Chessteam coach, Sean Martinez.

- It doesn't happen everyyear where you see a student

who learned the game after just one year

and they're performing in the toughest

Scholastic tournament,probably in the country,

not only in the state.

Performing, you know,pretty much perfectly,

he's undefeated.

- [Male Reporter] Tani'sunlikely victory spread quickly

throughout the media.

The story of the young boywho found his love for chess

while playing with hisbrother in Abuja, Nigeria.

- My brother made paper pieces with tape

and we just started to move pieces around.

We'd move illegal moveseverywhere on the board,

but it was, it was always fun.

- [Male Reporter] Then, thewhole story began to unfold.

Just a year earlier, hisfamily had fled Nigeria,

threatened by terroristswho vowed to kill them.

- [Male Reporter] Despite the violence,

Tani's father, Kayode,had been able to run

his printing business until the day

he refused to do work for the terrorists.

Then they showed up at their home.

- [Male Reporter] Thankfully,they left without incident.

Still, the threats and visits continued

and Kayode moved thefamily to Akure, Nigeria.

- [Male Reporter] Finally,the family secured visas

and a flight to Texasto stay with relatives.

- [Male Reporter] In December, 2017,

after a short stay with their relatives,

they landed in a homelessshelter in Manhattan,

Tani, now in third grade,joined the chess club.

At once, his coaches sawhe had talent, passion

and a work ethic helearned from his parents.

- He worked his butt offand that was one thing

that really separated himfrom many, it was like,

when it was time to havefun, he wanted to practice

and when it was time toplay, he was the first one

there at the board.

- I was always pushing,even if there was no prizes.

I just wanted to have thatfeeling that I'm doing well.

- [Male Reporter] As Tani ventured

into the tournament arena,victories were scarce.

His mother, Oluwatoyin,would pray with her son,

explaining that it takes patience

and prayer to find success.

- [Male Reporter] The timeand success was coming

as he started racking up the wins.

- I don't really think about who I play,

I just play the game andgo to the next round,

play the game, go to the next round.

- [Male Reporter] With theNew York State Championship

coming up in March, 2019, Tani'scoaches decided to take him

with the team.

Even then, he wasn't expected to go far.

However, miracles do happen.

Out of 73 players, eight yearold Tani came out on top.

- [Male Reporter] Tani understoodwhat his mother had said

about God's timing and prayer.

- He helped me with chess,he gave me the confidence,

I prayed to him and he answered.

- That was just like thebeginning of something

really phenomenal.

- [Male Reporter] Thatsomething would reach far beyond

a chess tournament.

As Tani and his family'sstory captivated the media,

it also grabbed the hearts of the public.

Tani's coaches set up a GoFundMe site

that raised over $250,000 in 10 days.

- [Male Reporter] They've launched

the Tanitoluwa Adewumi Foundation

to help families in need.

Tani plans to keep workingand praying to achieve

the coveted title of world'syoungest grandmaster.

He and his parents sharetheir journey in their book,

"My Name is Tani and IBelieve in Miracles".

- God is always with usand it gives me a sign.

that more things are gonna be ahead of us.

Good things.

(slow music)

- What an amazing story, isn't it?

Tani's book is availablewherever books are sold.

Do you see his goodpicture on the front here?

Called "My Name is Taniand I Believe in Miracles".

Unbelievable.

But we believe in miracles too.

In fact, we have a coupleof answers to prayer

we want to share with you right now.

"Pat, in October of 2019,Norma had a knee replacement."

"Still, she experienced onand off pain in her knee."

"One day, while watching this program,

Norma heard you say, Pat,'Someone named Norma,

you have an infection in your knee.'

'There's a virus.'

'You have an infection.'

'Place your hand on your knee,

the Lord is healing it.'

Norma knew the word was for her."

"She received it, believed it,

the pain completely left andit hasn't returned since then."

- [Pat] Isn't that marvelous?

- Wonderful.- God's good.

- Yes.- There's somebody named Carla

who lives in Rensselaer, New York.

She had acid refluxand she was watching us

on YouTube during the prayer.

Terry said, "Someone withextreme stomach acid,

God's healing that."

As Carla heard the wordscome out of Terry's mouth,

she said, "That's for me."

And all of a sudden, the burning sensation

and discomfort went away andafter 10 years of suffering,

Carla completely healed.

Now folks, as we've said, many, many times

God is no respecter of persons.

you will not stumble in, Jesus' name.

This is a jaw infection.

- What happens when thedoctor becomes the patient?

In the case of Dr. David McDonald,

his health went South very quickly

and suddenly the doctorwas too sick to work.

With six children, he and his wife

could have cut back on their giving,

but not that doctor.

So why did they double down?

Take a look.

- [Male Reporter] As a doctor,David McDonald's passion

is helping people, whichis why he and his wife,

Joanna are CBN partners.

- We'd see these stories aboutanother well being put in

or another family havinga surgical procedure.

And so I thought, wait,this is practical giving.

We joined at the lowest leveland then as we watched more,

we felt compelled to keepincreasing our giving,

even through some very tough times

and God was faithful.

- [Male Reporter] One particularlytough time came in 2003

when David had an illnessand was unable to work.

- My health went southreally quick and bad,

so I couldn't make a living,we were having a hard time

paying rent.

Through that season,especially because of my wife,

we continued to give, eventhough it wasn't easy at all.

- [Male Reporter] The couple kept giving,

even with six young children to care for.

By 2006, David had finally recovered.

He then got a job as a medical director

of a correctional facilityand was later able to open

his own practice.

- We just kept on being faithful

and then as I would seestories about people

who were increasing their giving,as they started coming out

of the wilderness, I thought,"Well, we can do that too."

"I mean, we could doublewhat we're giving."

And then I thought, "Oh,we could double again,"

you know, as time went on.

- [Male Reporter] Nowmembers of the thousand club,

the McDonald's encourage others to give.

- I've tried to outgive God a few times,

you can't do it.

You can't.

- You can't outgive God,that's what he found

and that's true.

Now, folks, how do you join the 700 club?

$20 a month, 65 cents a day, it's easy.

But some of you can go a lotmore, the McDonald's did that.

And for those who join the700 club at whatever level,

whether it's 20 a month or 40 a month

or a thousand dollars or whatever,

we want to give you a copy of my book,

"I Walked With the Living God".

It's apparently touched a lot of lives.

It's, it's amazingly candid,We didn't hold much back

and it's in here andI've got pictures here.

We talked about our staff andhere's, here's the early days

in Israel.

There's Wendy and there's-

- [Terry] Chris Mitchell.

- Chris Mitchell and MichaelLitman and all of us there.

That's just one of themany pictures that are here

in this book, but you don't get it

for the pictures, it's forthe inspiration that's here.

We'll give it to you as our gift to you

when you join the 700 club.

- Hey, I want to tellyou, this is Christine.

Christine, if I slaughteryour hometown name, I'm sorry.

I think it's Tarentum, Pennsylvania.

She says, ""I Have WalkedWith the Living God"

is a wonderful story."

"Just think, if everyone walked with God

like you have what awonderful world it would be."

"God bless you and your work."

What a nice comment.

- I tell you, it's wonderfulto see what God has done

and we see it on this program,

we see people, miraclestaking place and God, I mean,

I just want you to know God is real

and that's what this book is about,

to say, "Look, God is real."

We have victory overdemons, we have victory

over sickness and disease.

There's no challenge too great for God

and it's all here in this book.

And anyhow, now there'ssomething else that I'm thrilled

and I'm happy to be, among other things,

the chancellor of Regent University

and we have some absolutelymarvelous students.

We have over 11,000now in the student body

and we have a special performance

for you from the Regent University singers

and the song features alady named Lisa Hernandez

and it's called "Souls Anthem".

- Wow.- Fantastic.

This amazing acapella groupof Regent University singers

is under the inspireddirection of Gary Spill.

To hear more of their music,

go to facebook.com/regentsingers.

That's Facebook.com/regentsingers.

And there's much more of itand, boy, they are fantastic.

And Gary is one of the mostgifted choral directors,

I think, in the nation.

He's really good.

- Well, that was incredible.

- Incredible.

Okay, questions.

- Time for some email questions.

- Alright.- Okay, Pat,

this first one comesfrom George, who says,

"Many times as I'mpraying, the spirit seems

to answer my questions about situations."

"Is it normal for the Holy spirit

to communicate with us like this?"

"It's been this way since Iaccepted Jesus back in 1981."

- Well, of course it's normal.

I mean, the Holy Spiritis present all the time.

You know, I have written a book,

it hadn't been releasedyet, about the Holy Spirit,

there's a whole book on the Holy Spirit.

But the spirit of God is so powerful

and if we have the Lord,we have the Holy Spirit

and he's within us and of coursehe can answer your prayers.

He doesn't necessarily do it,but when you're sensitive,

he will speak to you andsome are more sensitive

to his anointing than others.

But he's speaking to, youwant to know an answer?

I mean, he gives you ananswer, that's normal.

As many as are led by the spirit of God,

they are the sons of God.

Okay, Lonnie.- This is Lonnie,

who says, "Who wrote the book of Genesis?"

- Well, we think it'scalled the Pentateuch,

the first books of the Bible and I think

we attributed the authorship to Moses,

other than that, I don't know.

- This is John who says,"Pat, several times

you've mentioned the Pauline Privilege

as an escape patch forsomeone in a troubled

or uncomfortable marriage."

"However, Jesus didn't speakof this Pauline Privilege."

"Jesus was very specificabout the grounds to divorce."

"Isn't it better to quote Jesus' teachings

as the final authorityrather than something

the early church or man conjured up?"

- Well, I don't thinkI would call the Bible

something that man conjured up,

but, oh, the Pauline Privilege,

if the unbelieving spouseis pleased to depart,

let them depart, that's it.

- [Terry] Yeah.

The brother or sister isn't bound

if the unbeliever leaves, that's it.

Jesus wasn't talking aboutan unbeliever when he said,

"For this cause, a manshall cleave to his wife

and the twain shall be one flesh

and what God has joined together,

let not man put us under."

And then he said, "Exceptfor the cause of immorality."

And that was the only ground we've got.

But the Pauline Privilegesays if an unbeliever

walks out on their relationship.

So, I mean, I think you're overstating

what has been said aboutthe whole Pauline privilege,

it doesn't say if you don'tlike your wife, you can leave.

Pauline, Paul never said that, alright?

- This is Patricia, whosaid, "What are the prayers

we should use when puttingon the Armor of God,

and do we do this every day?"

- I think we should every day.

Every day you need to ask God,

"Look, I'm going into battle."

It's the time, you know,

when David got in the maintrouble, he was relaxing,

he didn't go out tobattle and he was walking

on his rooftop, youknow, he just had a nap

and he just woke up andhe started looking around

and, you know, you knowwhat happened out of that?

He fell in a deep sin.

So, I think we need to always be vigilant.

The Bible says that your enemy, the devil,

goes about like a roaring lionseeking whom he can devour.

And it's the time that we're relaxed

and not paying attention that we can,

bad things could happen to us, alright?

- This is a viewer who says,"The fruit of the spirit

is love joy, peace, forbearance,

kindness, goodness,faithfulness, gentleness

and self-control."

"If someone is lacking in one of these

does that mean they don'thave the Holy Spirit?"

- You know, I don't know whypeople think of a simple verse

and always add something to it and say,

"Well, that little thingthere will throw you off."

No, it doesn't say that at all.

Look, there is the fruit of the spirit,

that is the character of Jesus.

There are the gifts of the spirit,

which is the ministry,the working of Jesus.

And the fact that you don'thave every grace that was

in Jesus doesn't mean thatyou've missed anything.

- It just-- Yeah, I don't know

too many people whohave every single grace.

- Yeah, they do, I mean,they're amazing people

if they do.

- Alright.

- That's all the time-- But, I mean,

don't always be lookingto find some little clause

and then throw the whole thing out.

That's what we, we have somany of these questions,

they analyze these things andthen they misinterpret them.

Well, today's powerminute is from Proverb 17.

"A Merry heart does good, like medicine."

And tomorrow we have aspecial communion service,

it's called Maundy Thursdayand we will be having communion

with us on the air.

And so if you've got wine,grape juice, whatever you take

and some bread, pleasejoin us, that's tomorrow.

We've Gil Amelio'sincredible Head of Christ,

you don't want to miss itand we'll see you then.

But thanks for being with us.

For Terry and all of us,this is Pat Robertson.

We love you, appreciateyou, God bless you.

Bye bye.
