> COMING UP.

THE FIRST "TOP GUN."

HOW THIS NAVY CAPTAIN TRAINED

THE BEST OF THE BEST.

> AND A DRUG TRIP.

AND A DEMONIC ATTACK.

THE PHONE CALL THAT DELIVERED

HIM FROM DARKNESS.

I WAS LIKE I'M GOING TO CUT

MY THROAT AND I GOT THAT CALL.

ON TODAY'S 700 CLUB.

> WELCOME TO THE 700 CLUB.

A BLISTERING REPORT HAS BEEN

RELEASED ON THE POLICE RESPONSE

TO THE BRUTAL ATTACK INSIDE THE

ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN UVALDE,

TEXAS.

SURVEILLANCE FILM SHOWS THE

SHOOTER FIRED MOST OF THE

ROUNDS BEFORE ANY LAW

ENFORCEMENT TOOK ACTION.

ALL TOGETHER, 366 OFFICERS

RESPONDED TO THE 77-MINUTE

ATTACK THAT KILLED 21 PEOPLE,

MOSTLY CHILDREN.

TEXAS LAWMAKERS BLAME SYSTEMIC

FAILURE ON ALL LEVELS, CITING

CONFUSION ABOUT WHO WAS IN

CHARGE AND A BREAKDOWN IN

COMMUNICATIONS, DALE HEARD HAS

TRAGIC DETAILS.

Reporter: NEWLY RELEASED

@SURVEILLANCE FOOTAGE SHOWING

THE SCENE INSIDE THE ELEMENTARY

SCHOOL DURING THE ATTACK.

THE SHOOTER, WHO REPORTEDLY HAD

NEVER FIRED A WEAPON BEFORE

THAT DAY WALKED INTO ROOM 111

THROUGH A DOOR WITH A LOCK THAT

HAD BEEN BROKEN FOR MONTHS.

MOST OF THE 142 ROUNDS FIRED

INSIDE THE BUILDING OCCURRED

BEFORE ANY FIRST RESPONDERS

EVER SET FOOT INSIDE.

THE SCATHING 77-PAGE HIM REPORT

FROM THE TEXAS HOUSE FOUND THAT

WHILE THERE WAS A SMALL ARMY OF

LAW ENFORCEMENT RESPONDERS AT

THE SCHOOL THAT DAY, THEY WERE

FAILURES ON EVERY LEVEL.

IF THERE IS ONLY ONE THING I

CAN TELL YOU, IT IS THERE WERE

MULTIPLE SYSTEMIC FAILURES.

Reporter: 376 OFFICERS

RESPONDED TO THE SHOOTING.

THE MAJORITY OF THEM FROM

FEDERAL AND STATE AGENCIES.

BUT NO ONE ESTABLISHED A

COMMAND POST, LEADING TO

CONFUSION, MISCOMMUNICATION AND

DELAY.

IF YOU KNOW THERE IS ACTIVE

SHOOTING, ACTIVE KILLING GOING

ON OR SOMEBODY IS DYING, THE

STANDARD IS YOU HAVE TO

CONTINUE TO DO SOMETHING TO

STOP THAT KILLING OR STOP THAT

DYING.

Reporter: THE REPORT BLAMED

EGREGIOUSLY POOR DECISION

MAKING FOR POLICE IN ACTION.

AND NOTED THAT THOSE OFFICERS

WHO WANTED TO ENTER THE

BUILDING.

WERE EITHER DENIED ACCESS TO

THE BUILDING, WERE TOLD

MISINFORMATION, SOME WERE EVEN

TOLD FALSE INFORMATION.

Reporter: CITY OFFICIALS

RELEASED POLICE BODY CAM

FOOTAGE IN AN EFFORT TO PROVIDE

WHAT THEY CALLED FURTHER AND

NECESSARY CONTEXT.

UVALDE POLICE OFFICER EDUARDO

ANALES, INJURED BY GUNFIRE,

URGES OTHERS TO GO IN.

BUT THE REPORT CONCLUDED WILL

YOU ENFORCEMENT RESPONDERS

FAILED TO ADHERE TO THEIR

ACTIVE SHOOTER TRAINING AND

THEY FAILED TO PRIORITIZE

SAVING INNOCENT LIVES OVER

THEIR OWN SAFETY.

SOME FAMILIES OF VICTIMS WERE

THERE TO RECEIVE THE REPORT,

INCLUDING JOSIAH'S GARCIA'S

FATHER.

THERE IS ALSO MORE

INFORMATION ON THE ATTACKER,

WHO HAD DEVELOPED A FASCINATION

WITH SCHOOL SHOOTINGS, AND MADE

THREATS OF VIOLENCE ON SOCIAL

MEDIA PLATFORMS.

SOME EVEN GAVE HIM THE NICKNAME

SCHOOL SHOOTER, BUT APPARENTLY

NEVER REPORTED HIS BEHAVIOR.

THE REPORT ALSO FOUND THAT

ROBB ELEMENTARY WAS NOT

ADEQUATELY PREPARED FOR AN

ARMED INTRUDER.

AND IT IS POSSIBLE THAT SOME OF

THE 19 CHILDREN AND TWO

TEACHERS KILLED MIGHT BE ALIVE

TODAY IF THEY HAD NOT HAD TO

WAIT 73 MINUTES TO BE RESCUED.

DALE HEARD, CBN NEWS.

> WELL THE 376 OFFICERS WHO

RESPONDED ARE GOING TO HAVE TO

LIVE WITH THE RESULTS THAT THEY

DIDN'T OBEY THE TRAINING ON

ACTIVE SHOOTERS FOR WHATEVER

REASON THEY THOUGHT IT WAS SOME

KIND OF HOSTAGE SITUATION, AND

THERE WERE WERE WAITING FOR

FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE

PROCEEDING INSIDE.

AND THERE IS A LOT TO LEARN

FROM THE U.S. MILITARY

PARTICULARLY THE ARMY, IN HOW

DO YOU HAVE DECISION MAKING

RIGHT THERE ON THE GROUND, AS

OPPOSED TO TRYING TO GO BACK TO

A COMMAND CENTER.

BUT THE SYSTEMIC FAILURES, THEY

DIDN'T EVEN ESTABLISH A COMMAND

CENTER.

THEY DIDN'T ESTABLISH PROPER

CHAIN OF COMMAND AND PROPER

INFORMATION GOING TO THE

OFFICERS INSIDE THE SCHOOL.

THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE ARE

ALL GOING TO SHAKE OUR HEADS

OVER FOR A VERY LONG TIME.

BUT HOW DO WE STOP IT?

HOW DO WE STOP THIS KIND OF

ATTACK?

YOU KNOW, WE LOOK AT HOW DID HE

GET NOT JUST ONE BY TWO ASSAULT

RIFLES?

APPARENTLY NEVER SHOT A GUN

BEFORE IN HIS LIFE, BUT HERE HE

IS, ABLE TO GET TWO OF THEM.

THE MAGAZINES ON THOSE ALLOWING

THAT KIND OF VIOLENCE.

142 SHOTS.

YOU JUST GO WELL CAN WE AT

LEAST RESTRICT THAT AND

RESTRICT ACCESS?

SHOULD THERE BE SOME KIND OF

EARLY WARNING SYSTEM?

THAT IF YOU THINK SOMEONE COULD

BE A SCHOOL SHOOTER THAT YOU

HAVE A PROCEDURE WHERE YOU

COULD NOTIFY AUTHORITIES AND

SHUT DOWN ACCESS TO ASSAULT

WEAPONS.

THESE ARE ALL THINGS WE ARE

GOING TO BE DEBATING AND GOING

TO BE DEBATING FOR A VERY LONG

TIME.

BUT MY HEART GOES OUT TO THE

OFFICERS WHO DIDN'T RESPOND,

BECAUSE THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE

TO LIVE WITH IT.

AND THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE TO

LIVE WITH IT THE REST OF THEIR

LIVES.

> IN OTHER NEWS, PRESIDENT

BIDEN IS BACK IN WASHINGTON

AFTER A 5-DAY MIDDLE EAST TRIP

TO ISRAEL AND SAUDI ARABIA.

HE LEAVES BEHIND A REGION AT A

DANGEROUS GEOPOLITICAL

CROSSROADS.

CHRIS MITCHELL REPORTS FROM

JERUSALEM.

Reporter: DURING THE SAUDI

ARABIAN LEG, PRESIDENT BIDEN

EMPHASIZED THE U.S. COMMITMENT

TO THE REGION.

HE TALKED OF WANTING TO PREVENT

RUSSIA AND CHINA FROM FILLING A

MIDDLE EAST VACUUM HE ADMITS

THE U.S. CREATED.

LET ME SUM ALL OF THIS UP IN

ONE SENTENCE.

THE UNITED STATES IS INVESTED

IN BUILDING A POSITIVE FUTURE

IN THE REGION, IN PARTNERSHIP

WITH ALL OF YOU.

AND THE UNITED STATES IS NOT

GOING ANYWHERE.

Reporter: A QUESTION FROM

THE BEGINNING WAS HOW WOULD THE

PRESIDENT DEAL WITH SAUDI CROWN

PRINCE MOW HUMAN BIN SALMON,

WHO HE BELIEVES MURDERED

JOURNALIST JAMAL KHASHOGGI.

THE ANSWER CAME IN A FIST BUMP

IN A PICTURE SEEN AROUND THE

WORLD.

DESPITE IN AWKWARD

RELATIONSHIP, PART OF BIDEN'S

WISH LIST CLOUDED ASKING THE

OIL GIANT TO PRODUCE MORE,

HOPING IT WOULD LOWER THE PRICE

OF GAS IN THE U.S.

THE KINGDOM HAD ANNOUNCED IT

INCREASED ITS PRODUCTION

CAPACITY TO 13 MILLION BARRELS

A DAY.

THE KINGDOM HAS NO CAPACITY TO

INCREASE BEYOND THAT SKEW THE

GREATER ISSUE IS IRAN'S GROWING

NUCLEAR PROGRAM AND URANIUM

ENRICHMENT.

WE COMPLY WITH INTERNATIONAL

LAW TO NOT INTERFERE WITH

INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS OF OTHER

NATIONS, TO COOPERATE WITH THE

INTERNATIONAL ATOMIC ENERGY

AGENCY.

Reporter: BIDEN SEES

DIPLOMACY AS THE BEST SOLUTION.

ALTHOUGH FOR SOME IN ISRAEL,

THAT IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

WE ARE REALLY AS I SAY

FREAKED OUT BY BIDEN'S

UNWILLINGNESS TO DO ANYTHING AT

ALL TO PREVENT IRAN FROM

PUTTING NUCLEAR WEAPONS

TOGETHER AND DEPLOYING THEM

AGAINST ISRAEL.

Reporter: FOREIGN POLICY

ANALYST CAROL GLICK CALLS THE

BIDEN ADMINISTRATION BACKWARD.

IRAN IS AN ENEMY OF THE

UNITED STATES.

IT SEEKS ITS ANNIHILATION.

AND ON THE OTHER HAND SAUDI

ARABIA HAS BEEN AN AMERICAN

ALLY IF 80 YEARS.

IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE WHY THE

BIDEN ADMINISTRATION WOULD WANT

TO GIVE SOME SORT OF CELEBRITY

DISCOUNT TO IRAN AND TREAT

SAUDI ARABIA SO HARSHLY WHEN

THE FORMER IS AMERICA'S ENEMY

AND THE LATTER IS AMERICA'S

ALLY.

Reporter: AS WITH ISRAEL,

GLICK SAYS THIS IS A DANGEROUS

SEASON.

WE ARE IN A DIFFICULT AND

TRYING TIME RIGHT NOW.

WE HAVE TO HOPE FOR THE BEST

AND HOPE FOR THE BEST IN TERMS

OF THE ELECTION, SO THAT WE'LL

GET HOPEFULLY AGAIN MORE

COMPETENT HELP ELECTED AND INTO

OFFICE IN FOUR MONTHS.

WE HAVE TO HOPE THAT WE'LL BE

ABLE TO WEATHER THIS VERY

DANGEROUS STORM.

CHRIS MITCHELL JOINS US NOW

LIVE FROM JERUSALEM.

SO SPEAKING IN EAST JERUSALEM,

PRESIDENT BIDEN, ONCE AGAIN,

BROUGHT OUT THAT TWO STATE

SOLUTION BASED ON THE 1967

BORDERS.

DO THE ISRAELIS CONSIDER THAT

REALISTIC?

AND FRANKLY, DOES ANYBODY VIEW

THAT AS REALISTIC?

Reporter: WELL, I DON'T KNOW

ABOUT THAT GORDON.

BUT MOST ISRAELIS DO NOT

BELIEVE IN THE TWO STATE

SOLUTION.

A POLL LAST YEAR ABOUT 40%

SUPPORT IT.

ALTHOUGH CURRENT ACTING PRIME

MINISTER ACTUALLY SAID IT

PUBLICLY THAT HE DID SUPPORT

IT.

I THINK MOST ISRAELIS, GORDON,

MOVED ON.

THEY ARE FEELING THERE IS NOT A

RELIABLE PARTNER WITH THE

PALESTINIAN AUTHORITY.

ON THE OTHER HAND, RECENT POLLS

HAVE SHOWN PALESTINIANS SUPPORT

HAMAS MORE THAN THE P.A.

SO ANY TWO STATE SOLUTION WOULD

MEAN A TERROR GROUP WOULD BE IN

CHARGE OF A FUTURE PALESTINIAN

STATE.

IN ADDITION TO WHAT HE SAID

ABOUT THE 1967 BORDERS, HE

PLEDGED HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF

THERE ARE TO A DREW

INDOCTRINATING ANOTHER

GENERATION OF PALESTINIANS.

AND THEY SENT A STRONG SIGNAL

OF A DIVIDED JERUSALEM AND

HERE'S WHY.

HE TRAVELED TO EASTERN

JERUSALEM.

THE ENTOURAGE REMOVED THE

ISRAELI FLAGS OFF THE

PRESIDENTIAL LIMOUSINE AND

STATED THEY WANT TO ESTABLISH A

SEPARATE CONSULATE IN JERUSALEM

FOR THE PALESTINIANS.

SO THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION IS

FULLY ON BOARD WITH A TWO STATE

SOLUTION, EVEN IF MOST IN

ISRAEL ARE NOT.

I HAVE TO ASK A FOLLOW-UP.

DO THE PALESTINIANS WANT A TWO

STATE SOLUTION?

YOU JUST SAID HAMAS IS LIKELY

TO WIN ANY ELECTION.

THEY ARE QUITE ADAMANT NO ON A

TWO STATE SOLUTION.

SO WHY ARE WE CONTINUING TO

PURSUE THIS MYTH?

Reporter: IT IS A GREAT

QUESTION, GORDON.

YOU KNOW, IN THAT POLL AS WELL,

THEY SAID MOST PEOPLE SUPPORT

HAMAS AS OPPOSED TO THE

PALESTINIAN AUTHORITY.

AND MOST PALESTINIANS DON'T

WANT A TWO STATE SOLUTION.

SO WHY WOULD THE BIDEN

ADMINISTRATION QUOTE A FORMER

U.S. AMBASSADOR TO ISRAEL DAVID

FRIEDMAN.

HE SAID IT IN HIS BOOK.

HE SAID THE DEFINITION OF

INSANITY IS DOING THE SAME

THING OVER AND OVER AND

EXPECTING DIFFERENT RESULTS.

HE SAID IN THE STATE DEPARTMENT

IT IS CALLED DIPLOMACY.

LET'S MOVE ONTO THE OTHER

BIG THREAT IN THE REGION.

THE IRANIANS.

THEY ARE NOW TECHNICALLY

CAPABLE THEY SAY OF BUILDING A

NUCLEAR BOMB.

SO HOW IS ISRAEL RESPONDING TO

THE NEWS?

Reporter: WELL JUST LAST

NIGHT, GORDON, THE CHIEF OF

STAFF SAID THE ID F, IS

PREPARING A MILITARY OPTION

AGAINST IRAN'S NUCLEAR PROGRAM.

HE SAID IT IS A MORAL

OBLIGATION, A NATIONAL SECURITY

COMMANDMENT AND SAID THEY WILL

CONTINUE TO PREPARE WHAT HE

SAIDENNER JETICALY TO ATTACK

IRAN.

AND HE ALSO SAID THAT THE

NUCLEAR DEAL BEING NEGOTIATED

RIGHT NOW IS DANGEROUS.

AND SO HE THINKS IT IS A BAD

THING.

BUT HE IS TRYING TO DO WHAT

THEY CAN TO STOP IRAN'S NUCLEAR

PROGRAM.

WELL IT IS NOT JUST THE U.S.

HAVING MEETINGS IN THE REGION.

VLADIMIR PUTIN, TURKEY'S

PRESIDENT ARE NOW MEETING WITH

IRAN'S PRESIDENT.

AND THAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN

TOMORROW.

WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS OF

THIS MEETING AND THE PURPOSE?

, PART OF THE PURPOSE IS

COORDINATING POLICY ON SYRIA.

THEY ARE ALL INVOLVED IN SYRIA

ONE WAY OR ANOTHER.

THEY ARE NOT ALL FRIENDS BUT

THEY ARE ALL SORT OF ANTI-

AMERICAN.

THEY WILL BE APPLAUDING THE

WEAKNESS IN THE U.S. RIGHT NOW,

AND THEY ARE READY TO FILL ANY

VACUUM.

I WOULD SAY, GORDON, THEY

REPRESENT A DANGEROUS

ALTERNATIVE TO THE ABRAHAM

ACCORD, SORT OF LIKE A COUNTER

WEIGHT IN THE REGION.

I TALKED EARLIER TODAY TO AN

ISRAELI ANALYST AND HE IS

LAMENTING WHAT IS GOING ON WITH

THE U.S. RIGHT NOW.

THE BIDEN ADMINISTRATION RIGHT

NOW IN THE REGION IS CONSIDERED

VERY WEAK.

ANOTHER SIGN OF WHAT IS GOING

ON IN THE REGION IS SOME OF

THESE

GULF COUNTRIES THAT WERE REALLY

ON THE ABRAHAM ACCORD, EGYPT

SAYING THEY DON'T WANT A

REGIONAL ALLIANCE AGAINST IRAN.

SO THAT IS WHY CAROLYN GLICK IN

OUR STORY SAID WE ARE ENTERING

INTO A DANGEROUS TIME.

A WEAK U.S., A GOVERNMENT IN

TRANSITION IN ISRAEL AND NOW A

THREAT OF NUCLEAR POWER.

WHICH IS WHY IT IS SO IMPORTANT

TO BE PRAYING FOR ISRAEL AND

THE ENTIRE REGION.

CHRIS THANKS FOR THE

INSIGHT.

WE'LL CERTAINLY BE PRAYING FOR

ISRAEL AND THE PIECE OF

JERUSALEM.

PLEASE BE IN PRAYER THE

WEAKNESS WE ARE EXPRESSING ON

THE INTERNATIONAL STAGE IS

TRULY ASTOUNDING.

THERE IS ALSO WEAKNESS IN THE

GOVERNMENT IN ISRAEL AND THEY

ARE GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT FOR

NEW ELECTIONS.

THIS IS A DANGEROUS TIME.

VERY DANGEROUS TIME FOR ISRAEL.

TERRY?

> "TOP GUN" MAVERICK IS THE

SUMMER'S BLOCKBUSTER.

UP NEXT, YOU ARE GOING TO MEET

THE MAN WHO FOUNDED THE

NAVY'SEE LET FLYING SCHOOL.

WE ARE GOING TO TAKE YOU BEHIND

THE SCENES OF THE REAL "TOP

GUN."

> LATER ON, HE THOUGHT HE WAS

HAVING A HEART ATTACK.

THEN DEMONS DESCENDED ON HIM

FROM ALL FOUR CORNERS OF THE

ROOM.

SEE HOW THIS YOUNG MAN WAS

NEARLY DRIVEN TO CUT HIS OWN

THROAT.

AND FIND OUT WHAT STOPPED HIM.

THAT IS COMING UP.

> THE MOVIE "TOP GUN"

MAVERICK PASSED $1.2 BILLION AT

THE GLOBAL BOX OFFICE THIS

THE GLOBAL BOX OFFICE THIS

WEEKEND.

THAT MAKES IT NUMBER 20 ON THE

ALL TIME LIST AND IT HAS ONLY

BEEN IN THEATERS FOR SEVEN

WEEKS.

THE REAL LIFE "TOP GUN" PROGRAM

STARTED DURING THE VIETNAM WAR

WHEN THE ENEMY WAS SHOOTING

DOWN OUR PLANES AT AN

UNPRECEDENTED RATE.

THE NAVY TURNED TO A YOUNG

PILOT TO START AN ADVANCED

SCHOOL FOR AIR TO AIR COMBAT.

AS HEATHER SELLS SHOWS US, THE

REST IS HISTORY.

Reporter: THE STORY BEGINS

IN 1956, WHEN DAN PEDERSON

BEGAN FLYING FOR THE NAVY.

BASED OFF THE WEST COAST, HE

AND OTHER YOUNG PILOTS FLEW THE

SKIES, READY TO INTERCEPT

SOVIET BOMBERS.

BUT THEN THE VIETNAM WAR BEGAN

AND SUDDENLY THE NAVY BEGAN

LOSING ITS VERY BEST IN WHAT IT

HAD LONG PRIDED ITSELF ON, AIR

ON AIR COMBAT.

YOU GO TO DINNER AT NIGHT

AND THERE IS EMPTY CHAIRS AT

THE TABLE.

Reporter: DAN PEDERSON

FOUNDED THE NAVY'S "TOP GUN"

SCHOOL TO TAKE ON AN INCREDIBLE

CHALLENGE.

THE NAVY WAS FAILING IN THE

SKIES OVER VIETNAM AND LOSING

ITS PILOTS AT AN ASTONISHING

RATE.

THE GENERAL THOUGHT WAS ALL

YOU HAD TO DO WAS SEND AVIATORS

INTO ACTION, TEACH THEM HOW TO

USE THE EQUIPMENT AND IF THEY

WOULD DO THAT, THEY WOULD WIN

VICTORIES.

Reporter: MILITARY HISTORIAN

TIMOTHY ORR SAYS THE NATION

WENT INTO THE VIETNAM WAR

SUPREMELY CONFIDENT AFTER

SUCCESS DURING THE KOREAN WAR.

IT QUICKLY BEGAN LOSING PILOTS,

HOWEVER, AND ORR SAYS THAT IS

BECAUSE MOST HAD RECEIVED

LITTLE TRAINING IN AIR COMBAT.

WE WOULD GET SURPRISED BY

NORTH VIETNAM MIGS, AND THE

MIGS THOUGH VASTLY OUTDATED

WERE VERY MANEUVERABLE AND THE

PILOTS OF THEM KNEW HOW TO PUSH

THE LIMITS OF THE AIRCRAFT.

Reporter: IN 1966, PEDERSON

WAS FLYING OFF THE VIETNAM

COAST.

IN JUST FOUR MONTHS, HIS AIR

GROUP LOST 13 MEN.

IN WHAT IS KNOWN AS THE KILL

RATIO, THE NAVY WAS LOSING ONE

PLANE FOR EVERY TWO IT SHOT

DOWN.

YOU CAN'T LIVE WITH LOSING

AIRPLANES LIKE WE WERE.

SO WE HAD TO DO SOMETHING.

Reporter: PEDERSON DOCUMENTS

THAT, THE FOUNDING OF THE

NAVY'S FIGHTER PILOT SCHOOL, IN

HIS NEW BOOK.

TO TALK ABOUT ONE OF THE GREAT

TURN AROUNDS IN MILITARY

HISTORY.

FOR PEDERSON IT STARTED WITH

THE @REPORT, A 1968 BRIEF THAT

EXAMINED ALL THE PROBLEMS IN

THE AIR AND RECOMMENDED HARD

CORE TRAINING AS A REMEDY INTO

IT WAS TIME TO GET WELL IN THE

MIDDLE OF A WAR.

AND THE ONLY WAY TO GET WELL IN

A HURRY IS TO DO A GRADUATE

LEVEL SCHOOL.

IN OTHER WORDS, TRAIN A NUCLEUS

OF PEOPLE AND HAVE THEM GO OUT

AND TRAIN THE GUYS IN THE

FLEET.

THE WAY THE NAVY LOOKED AT

IT WAS, IF AGAIN, THEY WERE

RELYING TOO MUCH ON THE

TECHNOLOGY THAT THEY NEEDED TO

KIND OF GET BACK TO TEACHING

PILOTS HOW TO DOG FIGHT.

TEACH THEM HOW TO USE THE

TRICKS OF THE TRADE TO OUT

MANEUVER THEIR OPPONENTS IN THE

AIR.

Reporter: A NAVY CAPTAIN

TAPPED PEDERSON, A FLIGHT

INSTRUCTOR AT THE MIRAMAR AIR

STATION AT THE TIME TO ORGANIZE

AND FOUND THE SCHOOL.

HE OFFERED HIM NO MONEY, NO

MECHANICS, AND NO PLANES TO

CALL THEIR OWN, ALONG WITH A

TIGHT DEADLINE AND I SAID YEAH,

HOW MUCH TIME HAVE I GOT?

AND HE SAID SOMEWHERE OVER 60

DAYS TO 90 DAYS TO HAVE THE

FIRST CLASS CONVENED.

AND I SAID YOU HAVE GOT TO BE

KIDDING ME.

NO, WE ARE GOING TO DO IT HERE.

ONE OF HIS INSTRUCTORS FOUND

AN ABANDON TRAILER AND PAID A

CRANE OPERATOR A CASE OF SCOTCH

TO MOVE IT.

PEDERSON WOULD TEACH A NEW

GENERATION HOW TO DOG FIGHT ALL

OVER AGAIN AND PUSH THEIR

PLANES TO THEIR LIMITS.

YOU MAY TRAIN AND YOU MAY

THINK YOU ARE THE BEST.

YOU ARE GOING TO FIND OUT IF

YOU DON'T DO IT RIGHT, YOU

DON'T GO HOME.

THE FINELY TUNED CURRICULUM

TAUGHT BY SPECIALISTS WHO

UNDERSTAND MECHANICS, THE

TACTICS OF THE ENEMY AND THE

NEED FOR INNOVATION, WOULD MAKE

ALL THE DIFFERENCE.

THREE YEARS LATER IN THE NEXT

MAJOR AERIAL CAMPAIGN AGAINST

VIETNAM THE KILL RATIO IMPROVED

600%.

THE NAVY WAS NOW LOSING ONE

PLANE FOR EVERY 12 IT SHOT

DOWN.

LOOKING BACK, PEDERSON SEES THE

HAND OF GOD IN IT ALL.

THERE ARE NO ATHEISTS FLYING

COMBAT AIRPLANES.

THEY MAY THINK THEY ARE FOR

AWHILE.

BUT OVER THE COURSE OF TIME,

THEY'LL HAVE THINGS HAPPEN TO

THEM OR THEIR AIRPLANE THAT

WILL BRING GOD RIGHT TO THE

SURFACE.

Reporter: TODAY "TOP GUN"

TONIGHT TO TAKE JUST THE TOP 1%

OF THE NAVY PILOTS AND TRAIN

THEM TO TRAIN OTHERS.

THE REASON THAT U.S. NAVY

PILOTS ARE AMONG THE ELITE IS

BECAUSE OF THE EDUCATION THEY

RECEIVE.

Reporter: PEDERSON SAYS HE

CONSIDERS "TOP GUN" TO BE

BIGGER AND BETTER THAN EVER.

BUT HE SAYS HE WROTE THE BOOK

FOR HIGH SCHOOL KIDS, TRYING TO

FIGURE OUT WHAT THEY WANT TO

DO.

HE HOPES THEY'LL CONSIDER THE

NAVY, AND MAYBE EVEN FLYING.

IF THEY ARE UP FOR A CHALLENGE

LIKE NO OTHER.

REPORTING IN SAN DIEGO, HEATHER

SELLS, CBN NEWS.

AN AMAZING HISTORY, AN

AMAZING STORY, AND HOW IT ALL

BIRTHED OUT OF NECESSITY.

YOU HAVE A KILL RATIO THAT IS

JUST DRAMATICALLY BAD AND YOU

ARE LOSING PILOTS AND WE STILL

BEAR THE MEMORY OF WHAT

IMPRISONED PILOTS WENT THROUGH

IN NORTH VIETNAM PRISONS

YOU LOOK AT THIS AND SAY HOW

CAN YOU TURN IT AROUND THIS THE

HISTORY THAT TURNED AROUND IN

THAT 60 TO 90 DAY PERIOD AND

THEY COBBLED A PROGRAM

TOGETHER, THEY THEN BECAME THE

ELITE IN THE MILITARY.

I LOVE THE QUOTE THERE ARE

NO ATHEISTS IN A FIGHTER

COCKPIT.

BACK TO THERE ARE NO ATHEISTS

IN FOX HOLES.

TERRY?

> WELL, STILL AHEAD A VICTIM

OF LONG-TERM COVID.

BRAIN FOG MADE THIS WOMAN FEEL

LIKE SHE WAS WRAPPED IN A

PLASTIC BUBBLE.

SHE COULDN'T EVEN TELL HER

RIGHT SIDE FROM HER LEFT.

WATCH HOW SHE WAS

SUPERNATURALLY HEALED, COMING

UP.

> BUT FIRST, LIKE A HOOK IN

HIS MOUTH, THIS YOUNG MAN WAS

ADDICTED TO PORN THE MINUTE HIS

NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR SHOWED IT TO

HIM.

YEARS OF MISERY FOLLOWED.

YOU'LL SEE HOW HE WAS DELIVERED

IN AN INSTANT.

AFTER THIS.

.

> JUST ONE LOOK.

THAT IS ALL IT TOOK FOR DONTE

GRADY TO GET HOOKED ON PORN.

THE TABLIER WAS ALREADY

ADDICTED TO ALCOHOL AND DRUGS.

AND A FEW YEARS LATER DONTE

BECAME SO MISERABLE HE DECIDED

TO CUT HIS OWN THROAT.

THAT IS WHEN HE GOT A PHONE

CALL THAT SAVED HIS LIFE.

IT WAS STAYING UP UNTIL

MAYBE LIKE 12:00 IN THE MORNING

JUST FIGHTING GOING ON IN THE

HOUSE, WORRYING ABOUT IF MY MOM

IS OUT CHEATING ON MY DAD.

OR WHAT MY DAD WAS GOING TO DO.

AND COPS SHOWING UP.

MY HOME ENVIRONMENT WAS VERY

UNHEALTHY.

Reporter: GRADY GREW UP IN A

HOME FILLED WITH DYSFUNCTION

AND DESPAIR.

WHERE HE IS PHYSICALLY AND

MENTALLY ABUSED BY HIS FATHER.

JUST TIMES WHERE IT WOULD BE

TRYING TO GET SOME SLEEP FOR

SCHOOL IN THE MORNING AND HE

WOULD WAKE ME UP AND HANG ME BY

MY FEET AND BEAT ME WITH

WHATEVER HE COULD FIND.

THE ABUSE WARPED HIS SENSE

OF SAFETY AND SELF ESTEEM.

I DIDN'T FEEL LICK I HAD

PROTECTION.

I FELT LIKE I WAS JUST KIND OF

ME AND MYSELF.

Reporter: THE FAMILY OFTEN

ATTENDED CHURCH TOGETHER.

BUT IT WAS MORE OF A SOCIAL

ACTIVITY.

MY CONCEPTION OF GOD WAS

MORE SO JUST LIKE RELIGION.

MY FAMILY WE JUST KIND OF WENT

THROUGH THE MOTIONS.

THERE WAS NO JESUS LOVES YOU.

Reporter: HE AND HIS SISTER

SOUGHT WAYS TO DEAL WITH THE

PAIN OF THEIR HOME LIFE.

HE TURNED TO DRUGS AND ALCOHOL

AS A TEEN.

THESE THINGS PROVIDED FOR ME

JUST AN ESCAPE FROM WHAT I WAS

LIVING IN.

I WOULD SAY THE WORST WAS WITH

THE LSD.

THE EFFECT OF THAT WAS TAKING

YOU TO ANOTHER WORLD I WOULD

WALK AROUND SCHOOL WITH ACID

TABLETS IN MY SOCKS JUST

WAITING TO GET HOME.

ONE EVENING HE ENCOUNTERED

VERY DARK EBIT ENTITIES.

THE TEEM MONDAYS WERE COMING

FROM THE FOUR CORNERS OF MY

ROOM AND I HID IN MY BLANKETS.

Reporter: WHEN THE FAMILY

MOVED TO FLORIDA HE WAS

INTRODUCED TO PORNOGRAPHY.

MY NEIGHBOR SHOWED IT TO ME

ONE TIME.

IT WAS LICK A HOOK IN MY MOUTH.

THAT WAS THE FIRST THING I WENT

BACK TO AND IT BECAME AN

ONGOING CYCLE EVER SINCE.

Reporter: HE LIVED THIS

ROLLER COASTER LIFE OF

ADDICTION TO DRUGS AND

PORNOGRAPHY UNTIL EARLY

ADULTHOOD.

ONE EVENING HE CONSIDERED

ENDING HIS LIFE.

THAT WAS AFTER COMING DOWN

FROM AN ACID TRIP.

I THINK I HAD JUST SMOKED TOO.

I WALKED HOME JUST NUMB IN

EVERY WAY POSSIBLE.

LIKE MIND JUST COMPLETELY LOST.

AND I WAS LIKE THIS IS IT.

I'M GOING TO CUT MY THROAT.

AND I GOT THAT CALL.

Reporter: THE PHONE CALL WAS

SURPRISINGLY FROM HIS FATHER,

TELLING HIM ABOUT A VISITING

SPEAKER AT A NEARBY CHURCH.

I WAS LIKE I REALLY DON'T

WANT TO TALK TO HIM RIGHT NOW.

KIND OF A LAST RESORT.

LET'S GET THIS OVER WITH.

I'M SITTING IN THOSE PEWS AND

OLD SCHOOL SAYS THERE IS A

YOUNG MAN IN HERE CRIPPLED BY

PORNOGRAPHY AND A FEW SECONDS

LATER IT WAS LICK THE LORD

DROPPED A MIRROR IN FRONT OF ME

AND IT WAS AT THAT MOMENT WHERE

I FELT LIKE THE LORD GRABBED

AHOLD OF MY HEART AND JUST

PULLED ME UP THERE.

THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO.

Reporter: HE WENT FORWARD

AND KNELT AT THE ALTAR, PRAYING

TO GOD TO GIVE HIM HOPE.

THE NEXT THING HE KNEW HE WAS

LYING ON THE FLOOR.

I HAVE HAD THE EXPERIENCE OF

RELIGION AND LEGALISM AND ALL

THAT STUFF.

THAT WAS MY ENCOUNTER WITH THE

LIVING GOD.

I JUST WEEPED LICK A BABY.

I REMEMBER I WENT DOWN AND I

WAS OUT FOR LIKE 20 MINUTES.

HE WAS INSTANTLY DELIVERED

FROM HIS DRUG AND PORN

ADDICTIONS AND SET FREE.

I WENT HOME AND THREW ALL

THE DRUG DEALER'S NUMBERS OUT

OF MY PHONE, BLOCKED THEM AND

THREW EVERYTHING IN THE GARBAGE

TRYING TO GET HEALTHY HABITS IN

MY LIFE.

THAT WAS A HARD CHANGE.

RIGHT AFTER I GOT UP OFF THAT

GROUND, I COULDN'T WAIT TO GO

HOME AND THROW AWAY ALL MY

SMOKING UTENSILS AND STUFF AND

GET RID OF THE JUNK I KNEW WAS

SO HARMFUL TO ME.

HE WAS ALSO ABLE TO FORGIVE

HIS FATHER AND RECONCILE WITH

HIM.

IT HAS BEEN A PROCESS.

I WISH IT WAS SOMETHING THAT

WENT AWAY LIKE THAT.

THERE ARE STILL THOSE TIMES

WHERE SOME MEMORIES JUST KIND

OF FLASH THROUGH MY MIND AND

WOULD BRING ME TO TEARS.

BUT HE IS DEFINITELY DIFFERENT.

Reporter: TODAY HE IS A

MINISTER IN THE ORLANDO AREA

HELPING YOUNG MEN OVERCOME

ADDICTIONS.

I JUST WANT TO BE PRESENT

WITH PEOPLE.

I'M WILLING TO GO OUT ON THE

DANGEROUS NEIGHBORHOODS AND

JUST LOVE ON PEOPLE AND SHARE

THE GOSPEL AND GIVE PEOPLE

HOPE.

JUST BECAUSE I KNOW THIS LIFE

IS NOT MY OWN.

JESUS IS DIFFERENT TO ME NOW

BECAUSE I ACTUALLY HAD AN

ENCOUNTER WITH HIM THAT CHANGED

ME FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.

THERE IS NOTHING ANYBODY CAN

SAY THAT WOULD STEER ME AWAY

FROM THAT.

I EXPERIENCED THE FATHER'S

LOVE, THE FATHER'S EMBRACE.

I EXPERIENCED CHAINS BREAKING.

MY ADVICE TO YOUNG PEOPLE

CAUGHT UP IN A DEDUCTION WOULD

BE IT IS GOING TO LEAVE YOU

EMPTY.

IT MIGHT FILL YOU TEMPORARILY,

BUT I PROMISE THERE IS A VOID

IN YOUR HEART THAT ONLY JESUS

CAN FILL.

WHEN YOU EXPERIENCE LOVE,

AND IT IS AN EXPERIENCE, YOU

CAN HEAR ABOUT IT.

YOU CAN READ ABOUT IT IN THE

BIBLE.

YOU CAN LISTEN TO SERMONS ABOUT

IT.

BUT EVERYTHING CHANGES WHEN YOU

EXPERIENCE IT.

WHEN YOU SAY I KNOW THAT GOD

LOVES ME.

FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD,

THAT IS ME, I'M PART OF THE

WORLD, FOR GOD SO LOVED ME, PUT

YOUR NAME IN THERE, THAT HE

GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON THAT

WHOSOEVER, THAT IS YOU, TOO,

PUT YOUR FAME THERE, TOO.

WHOSOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM WILL

NOT PERISH, BUT HAVE

EVERLASTING LIFE.

THESE ARE THE WORDS THAT ARE

THE BEST NEWS ANYONE HAS EVER

HEARD.

GOD LOVES YOU SO MUCH THAT HE

WAS WILLING TO PAY EVERY PRICE.

TAKE CARE OF EVERY SINGLE

COMPULSION, EVERY SINGLE SIN,

EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU MISSED

THE MARK.

HE HAS TAKEN CARE OF ALL OF

THAT FOR YOU.

BECAUSE HE LOVES YOU THAT MUCH.

> YOU CAN EXPERIENCE THAT

LOVE.

YOU CAN HAVE IT.

YOU CAN HAVE IT ON A DAILY

BASIS.

YOU CAN HAVE IT ON A MOMENT BY

MOMENT BASIS.

ALL IT TAKES IS FOR YOU TO

TURN.

TO SAY I DON'T WANT TO DO THESE

THINGS ANY MORE, I WANT TO TURN

TO GOD, AND LET HIS LOVE FILL

ME.

FILL ME TO OVERFLOWING.

SO I CAN SAY AS THE PSALMIST

SAID MY CUP OVERFLOWS.

WHEN YOU HAVE THAT EXPERIENCE,

NOTHING ELSE IS LIKE IT.

NOTHING ELSE CAN EVEN COME

CLOSE TO IT.

AND IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR IT,

IN THESE WRONG PLACES, HE WAS

LOOKING FOR IT IN ALCOHOL.

HE WAS LOOKING FOR IT IN DRUGS.

HE WAS LOOKING FOR IT IN PORN.

HE WAS LOCKING FOR THESE THINGS

AND HE DIDN'T REALIZE THE TRUTH

OF THAT SERMON THAT WAS SPOKEN

OVER HIM.

THAT IT CRIPPLES YOU.

THAT IS WHAT DRUGS DO.

THAT IS WHAT ALCOHOL DOES.

THAT IS WHAT PORN DOES.

IT CRIPPLES YOU.

YOU CAN'T STAY PRESENT IN THE

MOMENT.

YOU CAN'T STAY PRESENT IN A

RELATIONSHIP.

IT FILLS YOU WITH THE WRONG

THINGS.

AND IN THAT, IT ALWAYS LEADS TO

DEATH.

IT LEADS TO DESTRUCTION, IT

LEADS TO YOUR LIFE BEING

LIMITED AND HINDERED.

BUT HERE'S THE GREAT NEWS.

JESUS CAME THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE

LIFE, AND HAVE IT MORE

ABUNDANTLY.

THE LIFE THAT HE WANTS TO GIVE

YOU.

A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM THAT HE

WANTS TO GIVE YOU.

YOU ARE PRECIOUS IN HIS SIGHT.

YOU ARE SO VALUABLE HE DIED FOR

YOU.

WHY WOULDN'T YOU WANT THIS?

IT IS WHAT GOD SAYS.

CHOOSE LIFE.

WHY WOULD YOU CHOOSE DEATH?

IF YOU WANT THIS, IF YOU WANT

THIS EXPERIENCE, REAL SIMPLE.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS ASK FOR

IT.

AND DO IT WITH ALL OF YOUR

HEART.

DON'T DO IT AS SORT OF A YOKE.

BUT DO IT WITH ALL OF YOUR

HEART.

GOD, IF YOU ARE THERE, JESUS,

IF YOU REALLY CAME TO SAVE ME,

COULD YOU SHOW ME?

COULD YOU SHOW UP FOR ME?

IF YOU WANT TO DO THIS, BOW

YOUR HEAD WITH ME.

LET'S PRAY A VERY SIMPLE PRAYER

AND GOD WILL TAKE CARE OF ALL

THE REST.

JUST PRAY.

> JESUS, SAY HIS NAME, SAY IT

OUT LOUD.

JESUS.

I COME TO YOU.

I TURN TO YOU AND I TURN AWAY

FROM THESE THINGS THAT ARE

CRIPPLING ME.

I WANT YOUR LOVE, I WANT YOUR

PRESENCE, I WANT YOU.

SO JESUS, COME INTO MY HEART.

FORGIVE ME OF ALL THE THINGS

THAT I HAVE DONE WRONG.

SET ME FREE FROM ALL MY

COMPULSIONS.

ALL MAYA DEDUCTIONS.

AND JESUS, I WANT TO FOLLOW

YOU, ALL THE DAYS OF MY LIFE

HEAR MY PRAYER.

FOR I ASK IT IN JESUS' NAME.

AMEN.

> FATHER, FOR THOSE WHO JUST

PRAYED, I ASKED FOR A BAPTISM

IN YOUR LOVE.

I ASKED THAT YOU FILL THEM TO

OVERFLOWING WITH YOUR LOVE,

YOUR FORGIVENESS, YOUR

ACCEPTANCE.

YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS, YOUR PEACE

AND YOUR JOY.

DO IT NOW, LORD.

FOR I ASK IT IN JESUS' NAME.

AMEN.

> IF YOU PRAYED WITH ME, LET

ME KNOW.

GIVE US A CALL.

1-800-700-7000.

JUST SAY PRAYED WITH THAT GUY

ON TV.

I ASKED JESUS TO COME INTO MY

HEART.

WHEN YOU CALL I'VE GOT A FREE

PACKET FOR YOU.

IT IS CALLED A NEW DAY.

WHAT DO YOU DO NOW?

HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOUR SINS

HAVE BEEN FORGIVEN?

IT IS ABSOLUTELY FREE.

YOU CAN GET IT AS A DOWNLOAD,

AS A C. D, YOUR CHOICE.

NO FINANCIAL POSSIBLE AT ALL.

1-800-700-7000.

AND ONE MORE THING IF YOU ARE

DEALING WITH ADDICTION, DO

EXACTLY WHAT DANTE DID.

HE THREW AWAY ALL THE

PARAPHERNALIA, HE CHANGED HIS

FRIENDS, HE DID EVERYTHING TO

PROTECT HIS NEW RELATIONSHIP

WITH JESUS.

YOU DO THE SAME THING.

GO THROUGH THAT WONDERFUL

EXERCISE, CLEAN IT ALL OUT, GET

RID OF ALL OF IT, AND RESOLVE

I'M NEVER GOING BACK.

I'M NEVER DOING THAT AGAIN.

DO IT NOW.

GET RID OF ALL OF IT.

RIGHT NOW.

TERRY, OVER TO YOU.

> WELL, STILL AHEAD.

EXTREME FATIGUE FOR MONTHS.

LONG-TERM COVID FOR MONTHS.

SEE HOW SHE WAS HEALED WATCHING

THIS SHOW.

THAT IS COMING UP.

.

> WELCOME BACK TO THE 700

CLUB FOR THIS CBN NEWSBREAK.

A FEDERAL JUDGE HAS TEMPORARILY

BLOCKED A TRANSGENDER DIRECTIVE

ISSUED BY THE BIDEN

ADMINISTRATION.

IT WOULD HAVE PERMITTED

STUDENTS AND WORKERS TO USE

BATHROOMS MATCHING THEIR CHOSEN

GENDER IDENTITY.

THE ADMINISTRATION'S DIRECTIVE

ALSO ALOUD TRANSGENDER ATHLETES

TO JOIN SPORTS TEAMS

CORRESPONDING WITH THEIR CHOSEN

GENDERS RATHER THAN GENDER AT

BIRTH.

> VICTOR IS A BIG DREAMER.

HE WANTS TO BE AN ENGINEER.

HE WANTS TO BE AN ENGINEER.

THE PROBLEM.

HIS SINGLE MOM COULDN'T EVEN

AFFORD FOOD FOR HER FAMILY.

SO SCHOOL WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF

REACH FOR VICTOR.

BUT NOT ANYMORE.

VICTOR NOW HAS A SHOT AT MAKING

HIS DREAM COME TRUE.

VICTOR IS A CREATIVE YOUNG MAN

WITH BIG DREAMS.

WHEN I GROW I WANT TO BE A

PILOT AND HAVE A GOOD JOB.

Reporter: VICTOR OFTEN PLAYS

ALONG THE COMPOUND AND CLIMBS

TREES AND MOLDS THINGS FROM

MUD.

BEING A SINGLE PARENT, VICTOR'S

MOM DID HER BEST TO TAKE CARE

OF HER CHILDREN.

BUT EVERY DAY WAS A STRUGGLE.

THE LITTLE MONEY EARN DOING

WORK MADE IT HARM TO PROVIDE

FOOD FOR MY FAMILY.

I COULDN'T EVEN AFFORD TO TAKE

MY CHILDREN TO SCHOOL.

AT TIMES I WAS AFRAID I

WOULD DIE.

I WOKE UP FEELING WEAK FROM

HUNGER.

I REMEMBER ONE DAY I SAW MY

FRIENDS GOING TO SCHOOL.

I WENT TO MY MOTHER AND ASKED

WHY I COULDN'T GO TO SCHOOL

LIKE THEY DID.

VICTOR BEGGED ME TO TAKE HIM

TO SCHOOL.

IT TROUBLED ME.

IT IS ILLEGAL FOR CHILDREN NOT

TO ATTEND SCHOOL.

BUT I SIMPLY COULDN'T PAY THE

FEES FOR MY CHILDREN.

IF I COULD NOT FIND A WAY, I

WOULD GO TO JAIL.

I WAS HOPELESS.

Reporter: THEN SHE HEARD

ABOUT THE CHILDREN'S

ASSISTANCE, A MINISTRY

SUPPORTED BY ORPHAN'S PROMISE.

SHE REACHED OUT TO US FOR HELP

AND WE SPONSORED VICTOR AND HIS

SIBLINGS TO GO TO SCHOOL.

I HAVE LEARNED TO READ AND

WRITE AND I LOVE TO PLAY.

I'M PROUD TO BE IN SCHOOL AND

I'M SMARTER THAN I WAS BEFORE.

I'M SURE I'M GOING TO MAKE IT.

Reporter: EVERY SUNDAY THEIR

FAMILY ATTENDS CHURCH AT THE TC

ACENTER.

I LOVE SUNDAYS BECAUSE WE

GET TO WATCH AND LEARN THE WORD

OF GOD.

I HAVE ACCEPTED JESUS AND I

LOVE HIM.

Reporter: AFTER THE

SERVICES, WE PROVIDE MEALS TO

VICTOR AND 200 OTHER CHILDREN.

VICTOR'S MOM NOW WORKS AT THE

FEEDING PROGRAM.

AND WITH THAT EXTRA INCOME, SHE

CAN FEED HER FAMILY.

IT IS HELPING THE CHILDREN.

BEFORE COMING HERE, I DIDN'T

KNOW GOD AND I FACED PROBLEMS

OF MY OWN.

I NOW HAVE THE JOY OF THE LORD

IN MY HEART AND I KNOW GOD IS

GOD.

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO

SUPPORTS US.

I KNOW MY CHILDREN WILL SUCCEED

IN LIFE AND ACHIEVE THEIR

DREAMS BECAUSE OF YOU.

I PRAY GOD WILL BLESS AND YOU

SO CALL NOW.

GORDON?

A SENSATION FROM HEAD TO

TOE.

THAT IS WHAT THIS WOMAN FELT

WHEN SHE WAS SUPERNATURALLY

HEALED OF THE LONG-TERM EFFECTS

OF COVID.

SEE HER MIRACULOUS STORY WHEN

WE COME BACK.

PLUS, WE'LL BE PRAYING FOR YOU.

SO STAY WITH US.

.

> SHE FELT TRAPPED IN A

BUBBLE, DETACHED FROM

EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE.

FOR MONTHS HER BRAIN WAS IN A

FOG.

SO WHAT FINALLY CLEARED HER

THOUGHTS OVERNIGHT?

WELL, SEE FOR YOURSELF.

MY NAME IS MAGGIE KEIL.

I WORK FOR CBN PART-TIME.

I LOVE DOING THAT BECAUSE I

LOVE TALKING TO PEOPLE AND I

LOVE PRAYING FOR PEOPLE.

IT GIVES ME A CHANCE TO LISTEN

TO THEM, SHOW THEM COMPASSION.

I HAD COVID FOR ABOUT FIVE OR

SIX MONTHS.

I WAS ONE OF THE PEOPLE THAT

HAVE THE LONG-TERM EFFECTS.

I WAS REALLY TIRED OUT,

FATIGUED FOR THE LONGEST TIME.

PROBABLY UP UNTIL APRIL THE

FIRST PART OF MAY.

THAT IS WHEN I ACTUALLY STARTED

FEELING LIKE I WAS HAVING BRAIN

FOG.

BECAUSE IT WAS MORE PRONOUNCED

THEN.

ABOUT APRIL.

THE BRAIN FOG ACTUALLY MADE ME

FEEL LIKE I WAS WRAPPED IN A

PLASTIC BUBBLE.

I FELT LIKE I WAS DETACHED FROM

EVERYBODY.

THAT PEOPLE WOULD TALK TO ME

AND I COULDN'T PROCESS WHAT

THEY WERE SAYING TO ME.

JUST FELT LIKE I WASN'T EVEN

PART THE ENVIRONMENT I WAS IN.

I TOLL THE DOCTOR I CONTINUE

SEEM TO PROCESS AND I WOULD GO

TO THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE AND THEY

WOULD SAY WE NEED TO DO A TEST.

YOU NEED TO TURN OVER ON YOUR

SIDE.

THEY SAID LEFT SIDE AND I WOULD

LOOK AT THEM AND I FELT LIKE

WHERE IS MY LEFT SIDE?

I COULDN'T EVEN CORRELATE HOW

TO TURN ON MY LEFT SIDE.

THAT LASTED UNTIL JULY 2. I

NORMALLY WATCH THE 700 CLUB

EVERY MORNING BEFORE I GO ON

THE PHONES AT NOON.

I TURN ON THE 700 CLUB.

AND I JUST HAD FINISHED TALKING

TO MY FRIEND ON THE TELEPHONE

AND I WAS TELLING HER ABOUT

THIS BRAIN FOG.

SO WENDY HAD THIS WORD OF

NOTHING.

THERE IS SOMEBODY YOU JUST

FEEL LIKE YOU ARE IN A FOG.

IT IS LIKE YOU NORMALLY HAVE

GREAT MENTAL CLARITY, BUT YOU

CAN'T REMEMBER ANYTHING AND YOU

WERE JUST IN THIS FOG AND YOU

HAVE EVEN SAID TO PEOPLE I FEEL

LIKE I'M IN A FOG.

GOD IS LIFT THAT GO FOG OFF OF

YOU RIGHT NOW.

JUST START PRAISING, THAT FOG

IS DISAPPEARING IN O'S US IS'S

NAME.

AND I THOUGHT THAT IS ME.

I STARTED SAYING PRAISE YOU

JESUS.

THANK YOU JESUS.

I JUST WANTED TO JUMP UP OUT OF

MY CHAIR AND SHOUT.

I COULD FEEL SOMETHING FROM MY

HEAD TO TOE, AND BY THE NEXT

MORNING IT WAS COMPLETELY GONE.

I FELT BETTER.

LIKE I WAS PART OF LIVE AGAIN,

I DIDN'T FEEL DETACHED.

I PRAISE GOD FOR THAT.

THAT HE SAW ME THROUGH SO I CAN

CONTINUE TO DO HIS WORK.

HE WILL SEE YOU THROUGH,

TOO.

HE WANTS TO HEAL.

GET THAT, UNDERSTAND THAT.

WHEN YOU UNDERSTAND THAT HE

WANTS TO DO THAT, HE WANTS TO

FORGIVE YOU, HE WANTS TO

FORGIVE ALL YOUR INIQUITY, HE

WANTS TO HEAL ALL YOUR

DISEASES.

THAT IS THE PROMISE IN THE

BIBLE.

YOU CAN FIND IT IN PSALM 103.

IT IS THE PROMISE OF A MESSIAH.

HE WILL COME AND SAVE HIS

PEOPLE.

HE WILL DO THESE THINGS FOR US.

WE DON'T COME UP WITH THESE

IDEAS.

GOD CAME UP WITH THEM.

SO WHEN YOU PRAY, DON'T SAY A

FAITH DEFEATING PRAYER.

LORD IF IT BE YOUR WILL, AND

QUESTION IT.

HIS WILL ALWAYS IS TO HEAL.

HIS WILL ALWAYS IS TO FORGIVE.

HE DOESN'T CHANGE.

HE HASN'T CHANGED HIS MIND.

HE HASN'T CHANGED THE CROSS.

HE HASN'T CHANGED THE BLOOD OF

JESUS.

HE HASN'T CHANGED THE COVENANT

THAT HE HAS MADE.

NOW, WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO GET

TO THE POINT WHERE YOU REALLY

BELIEVE IT?

THAT IT IS NOT SOMETHING WHERE

YOU ARE HAVING AN AFFIRMATION

OR INTELLECTUALLY I UNDERSTND

WHAT THE SCRIPTURE SAYS SO I

WANT TO GO ALONG WITH THAT.

BUT YOU REALLY WALK INTO WHAT

WE TALK ABOUT AS A LIVING

FAITH.

THE EVIDENCE OF THINGS NOT

SEEN.

THE SUBSTANCE OF THINGS HOPED

FOR.

THAT TANGIBLE I KNOW, I KNOW, I

KNOW AND I HAVE IT.

WHAT DOES IT TAKE?

WELL, IT IS REAL SIMPLE.

LOCK TO JESUS.

THE AUTHOR AND THE FINISHER OF

YOUR FAITH.

DON'T LOOK AT IT AS SOMETHING

DO YOU HAVE COME UP WITH.

LOOK AT IT, JUST LIKE HEALING,

SOMETHING THAT YOU RECEIVE.

SO LOOK TO HIM.

WHEN PEOPLE TELL ME WELL YOU

MUST HAVE GREAT FAITH I SAY NO,

I DON'T HAVE GREAT FAITH.

WHAT I HAVE IS THE KNOWLEDGE OF

SOME REALLY GREAT FACTS.

THERE WAS A MESSIAH PROMISED TO

THE WHOLE WORLD AND THAT IS THE

WHOLE PURPOSE OF THE EXODUS.

THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF THE

PROMISE TO ABRAHAM.

A PROMISED MESSIAH THAT WOULD

SAVE.

THAT MESSIAH CAME.

HE WAS BORN IN BETHLEHEM.

HE LIVED A SINLESS LIFE.

@HE LIVED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE

ORIGINAL COVENANT.

HE LIVED IT.

AND THEN HE DIED, SO THAT HIS

LIFE, HIS BLOOD, HIS SOUL WOULD

BE A SACRIFICE FOR ALL PEOPLE

FOR ALL TIME.

THAT IS A GREAT FACT.

AND HERE'S A BETTER FACT.

HE DIDN'T STOP THERE.

HE ROSE FROM THE DEAD THREE

DAYS LATER AS THE SCRIPTURES

PREDICTED.

HE ROSE.

HE PRESENTED HIMSELF.

HE PRESENTED TANGIBLE PROOF I'M

ALIVE TODAY.

LOOK TO THAT.

LOOK TO THAT.

WHEN A GREAT MIRACLE.

WHEN YOU LOCK TO THAT, YOU GET

ALL THE FAITH YOU NEED.

NOW, HERE ARE SOME OTHER

STORIES, OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE

BEEN HEALED.

HERE'S CYNTHIA FROM FLORIDA.

CAME DOWN IN COVID IN JULY LAST

YEAR.

ALMOST A YEAR LATER SHE

SUFFERED WITH RESTRICTED

LABORED BREATHING.

SHE WAS WATCHING THIS SHOW ON

JUNE 28th AND BEFORE THE PRAYER

SEGMENT, CYNTHIA PRAYED LORD,

I'M TIRED OF HAVING THESE SIDE

EFFECTS FROM COVID.

THEN TERRY SAID THERE IS

SOMEONE WHO HAS LONG LUNG COVID

SYMPTOMS, PARTICULARLY WITH

YOUR LUNGS.

YOU CAN'T GET A FULL CAPACITY.

YOU CAN NOW BECAUSE JESUS JUST

HEALED YOU.

JUST BREATHE IN THE BREATH OF

HEAVEN DEEPLY AND EXHALE.

YOU ARE HEALED.

CYNTHIA SAID I RECEIVE THAT.

SOON AFTER SHE COULD TAKE A

DEEP FULL BREATH AND SHE GIVES

ALL GLORY TO GOD.

PRAISE THE LORD.

> THIS IS DAVID HE LIVES IN

MIND DEN, NEVADA.

HE WOKE UP WITH A SHARP PAIN IN

HIS SHOULDER.

SIX MONTHS LATER HE WAS STILL

IN GREAT PAIN.

HE HEARD GORDON SAY YOU ARE

PRAYING FOR YOUR RIGHT

SHOULDER.

YOU HAVE EYE STABBING PAIN IN

THAT SHOULDER.

IT JUST GOT RELEASED.

JUST BEGIN TO RAISE YOUR RIGHT

ARM TO HIM OF THE PRAISE GOD

FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE.

YOU HAVE COMPLETE, FULL

MOVEMENT IN IT NOW.

NO MORE PAIN.

DAVID THOUGHT THAT IS ME.

HE WANTED TO RAISE HIS RIGHT

ARM BUT HESITATED AS HE SAID TO

HIMSELF THIS IS GOING TO HURT.

BY AMAZEMENT THE PAIN WAS GONE.

> LET'S PRAY.

LORD WE LIFT EVERYONE WHO NEEDS

HEALING TODAY, ESPECIALLY

ANYONE WITH COVID, WITH LONG

COVID.

LYME DISEASE, CHRONIC

FATIGUE, LUPUS, ANY OF THESE

DEBILITATING ILLNESS, WE LIFT

THEM ALL TO YOU AND WE ASK YOU

POUR OUT HEALING THROUGHOUT

THEIR BODIES.

EVERY SINGLE CELL.

WE COMMAND IT NOW BY THE

AUTHORITY GIVEN TO US, BE

HEALED AND BE SET FREE.

TERRY IN.

> THERE IS SOMEONE THAT WORD

ABOUT THE PAIN IN THE SHOULDER,

YOU HAVE LIKE A FROZEN SHOULDER

FROM THE TOP OF YOUR, BEHIND

YOUR EAR ALL THE WAY DOWN YOUR

SHOULDER AND ARM INTO YOUR

BACK.

SO PAINFUL YOU CAN'T LIFT

ANYTHING MUCH ABOVE YOUR WAIST.

GOD IS SETTING YOU FREE FROM

THAT RIGHT MAO.

JUST BEGIN TO LIFT YOUR HANDS

AND PRAISE HIM.

YOU HAVE BEEN HEALED BY JESUS.

> THERE IS SOMEONE EVERYBODY
