LIFE TODAY ON THE 700 CLUB TY

EVERYONE WELCOME TO THE 700

CLUB AMANDA KNOX FOR TODAY'S

HEADLINES LET'S GO OVER TO THE

CBN NEWS DESK.

THANKS ANDREW.

REACTIONS TO THE SUPREME

COURT'S RULING GRANTING LIMITED

TO OCCUPANTS OF THE OVAL OFFICE

CAME A SWIFT AND STRONG

PRESIDENT BIDEN CONDEMNED IT AS

A DANGEROUS PRECEDENT.

FORMER PRESIDENT FORMER

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP CALLED

IT A BIG WIN FOR THE

CONSTITUTION IN ADDITION TO ITS

HISTORICAL IMPACT, THE RULING

ALSO AFFECTS AN ELECTION CASE

AGAINST FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD

TRUMP.

CBN'S GARY REPORTS FOR THE

FIRST TIME IN ITS 235 YEAR

HISTORY, THE U.S. SUPREME COURT

HAS CLARIFIED THE ISSUE OF

PRESIDENTIAL IMMUNITY, RULING 6

TO 3 THAT PRESIDENTS HAVE

ABSOLUTE IMMUNITY FOR OFFICIAL

ACTS AND PRESUMPTIVE IMMUNITY

FOR ACTIONS TAKEN OUTSIDE THE

PARAMETER OF THE DUTIES OF THE

OFFICE.

FORMER PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP

THE CASE BEFORE THE COURT

CLAIMING HE HAD ABSOLUTE

IMMUNITY FROM PROSECUTION FOR

HIS OFFICIAL ACTS AS PRESIDENT

ON JANUARY SIX, 2021.

BUT YOU'RE NOT GOING TO DO

ANYTHING IF YOU DON'T HAVE

IMMUNITY BECAUSE OTHERWISE

YOU'RE GOING TO BE PROSECUTED

AFTER.

YOU LEAVE OFFICE AND A

MAJORITY OF THE JUSTICES AGREED

.

CHIEF JUSTICE JOHN ROBERTS

DELIVERED THE COURT'S OPINION

THAT QUOTE THE NATURE OF

PRESIDENTIAL POWER ENTITLES A

FORMER PRESIDENT TO ABSOLUTE

IMMUNITY FROM CRIMINAL

PROSECUTION FOR ACTIONS WITHIN

HIS CONCLUSIVE AND PRECLUDES OF

CONSTITUTIONAL AUTHORITY AND.

HE'S ENTITLED TO AT LEAST

PRESUMPTIVE IMMUNITY FROM

PROSECUTION FOR ALL HIS

OFFICIAL ACTS.

THERE IS NO IMMUNITY FOR

UNOFFICIAL ACTS THE COURT IN A

RATHER COMPLICATED WAY CARVED

OUT A VERY LEVELS OF IMMUNITY

THAT A PRESIDENT MIGHT ENJOY

IMMEDIATELY THE RULING WAS

ANNOUNCED TRUMP POSTED ON TRUTH

SOCIAL BIG FOR OUR CONSTITUTION

AND DEMOCRACY PROUD TO BE AN

AMERICAN IN AN ADDRESS TO THE

NATION, PRESIDENT BIDEN SAID

THE RULING MEANS THERE ARE NO

LIMITS ON WHAT A PRESIDENT CAN

DO.

THIS IS A FUNDAMENTALLY NEW

PRINCIPLE AND IT'S A DANGEROUS

PRECEDENT BECAUSE THE POWER OF

THE OFFICE WILL NO LONGER BE

CONSTRAINED BY THE LAW EVEN

INCLUDING THE SUPREME COURT OF

THE UNITED STATES.

THE ONLY LIMITS WILL BE SELF

IMPOSED BY THE PRESIDENT ALONE

.

THE RULING KICKS THE JANUARY

SIX CASE DOWN TO THE FEDERAL

DISTRICT AND IT PUTS THE BURDEN

ON SPECIAL PROSECUTOR JACK

SMITH TO PROVE THE FORMER

PRESIDENT ACTED UNOFFICIALLY

AND WITH CRIMINAL AS A

CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT THAT

WILL BE HARD TO PROVE BECAUSE

THE SUPREME COURT SAYS HIS

CONTACTS WITH THE JUSTICE

DEPARTMENT AND VICE PRESIDENT

PENCE TO OVERTURN THE ELECTION

TOOK PLACE.

OFFICIAL ACTS WITHIN THE

PRESIDENT'S AUTHORITY WHEN

TRUMP'S PRESENTED ARGUMENTS

BEFORE THE COURT LAST APRIL,

JUSTICE SOTOMAYOR ASKED IF

THERE SHOULD BE ANY LIMITS ON

PRESIDENTIAL ACTIONS IF.

THE PRESIDENT DECIDES THAT HIS

IS A CORRUPT PERSON AND HE

ORDERS THE MILITARY OR SOMEONE

TO ASSASSINATE HIM.

IS THAT WITHIN OFFICIAL ACTS

THAT FOR WHICH HE CAN GET

IMMUNITY?

JUSTICE KAGAN AND JACKSON

AGREED WITH SOTOMAYOR VOTING

AGAINST THE DECISION.

IN THE DISSENT SOTOMAYOR WROTE

TODAY'S DECISION TO GRANT

FORMER PRESIDENTS CRIMINAL

IMMUNITY RESHAPES THE

INSTITUTION OF THE PRESIDENCY.

IT MAKES A OF THE PRINCIPLE

FOUNDATION TO OUR CONSTITUTION

AND SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT THAT

NO MAN IS ABOVE THE LAW.

THE COURT GIVES FORMER

PRESIDENT TRUMP ALL THE

IMMUNITY HE ASKED FOR AND MORE

LEGAL EXPERTS AGREE THIS

UNPRECEDENTED HISTORIC RULING

WILL HAVE FAR REACHING

IMPLICATIONS NOT ONLY FOR

DONALD TRUMP BUT FUTURE

PRESIDENTS AS WELL.

AS A RESULT, THE SUPREME

COURT'S DECISION WILL LIKELY

JACK SMITH'S PROSECUTION OF THE

FORMER PRESIDENT UNTIL AFTER

NOVEMBER ELECTION.

AND PRESIDENT TRUMP IS NOW

CITING THE RULING IN A MOVE

SEEKING TO OVERTURN HIS

CONVICTION IN NEW YORK LAST

MONTH AND FALSIFYING BUSINESS

RECORDS.

DESPITE THOSE ACTS BEING

COMMITTED BEFORE, HE WAS

PRESIDENT.

GARY LANE, CBN NEWS JOINING

US NOW IS CBN CHIEF POLITICAL

ANALYST DAVID BRODY.

SO DAVID, DONALD TRUMP IS

CELEBRATING THIS AS A VICTORY.

HOW WILL HE USE THIS TO HIS

ADVANTAGE ON THE CAMPAIGN

TRAIL?

WELL, FIRST OF ALL, IN THE

SHORT TERM AS GARY POINTED OUT

ABOUT JANUARY CASE IS GOING

NOWHERE BEFORE THE ELECTION.

SO THAT IS VICTORY RIGHT THERE

.

BUT BEYOND ALL OF THAT, THERE

IS GOING TO BE A SENSE BY

DONALD TRUMP HERE TO SAY ONCE

AGAIN, LOOK, WEAPONIZATION OF

GOVERNMENT AGAINST ME.

YOU KNOW, FOR DONALD TRUMP

THEY'RE COMING AFTER ME AND

EVEN THE SUPREME COURT AGREES

WITH ME.

AND ONCE AGAIN, HE'S GOING TO

BE ABLE TO SAY YOU SEE EVEN THE

SUPREME COURT HOW TO HOW TO

STOP THIS NONSENSE THAT'S

COMING UP AGAINST ME.

SO YOU KNOW ONCE AGAIN

POLITICALLY IT'S A WIN FOR

DONALD TRUMP.

HE'S BEEN OUT ON A BIG WIN

STREAK LATELY FOR SURE.

ON THE SIDE PRESIDENT BIDEN

IS CALLING THIS A DARK DAY AND

SAID IT'S THE LATEST IN A LINE

OF SUPREME COURT DECISIONS

ATTACKING ESTABLISHED LAW LIKE

,VOTING RIGHTS AND WOMEN'S

RIGHTS.

HOW IS HE GOING TO USE THIS

RULING FOR HIS PURPOSES?

WELL, HE'S GOING TO DO THE

OTHER THE FLIP SIDE OF THE

DEMOCRACY ARGUMENT.

HE'LL SAY IS A THREAT TO

DEMOCRACY.

YOU KNOW, DONALD TRUMP SAID

IT'S A BIG WIN FOR THE

CONSTITUTIONAL DEMOCRACY.

PRESIDENT BIDEN WILL SAY DONALD

TRUMP IS A THREAT TO DEMOCRACY.

THIS DECISION IS A THREAT TO

DEMOCRACY AND FROM A POLITICAL

STANDPOINT THIS ACTUALLY MAY

HELP BIDEN A LITTLE BIT TO

BASICALLY MAKE THE ARGUMENT

WHICH HAS DONE NOW THIS WEEK

AFTER THE SUPREME COURT RULING

TO SAY LOOK, IF THE SUPREME

COURT CAN GET IT RIGHT, THE

ONLY PEOPLE IN AMERICA THAT CAN

GET IT RIGHT NOW GET IT RIGHT

ARE THE VOTERS.

AND SO THEREFORE THAT'S GOING

TO GIVE BUY TO MORE MOTIVATION

TO GO AND TELL THE VOTERS HEY,

LOOK, IT'S YOU OR NOBODY AT

THIS POINT TO STOP DONALD TRUMP

FROM WHAT HE BELIEVES WILL BE

RECKLESS BEHAVIOR UNDER THIS

DECISION.

THE PRESIDENT'S LACKLUSTER

DEBATE LAST STUNNED DEMOCRATS

TO THE POINT OF TALKS ABOUT

REMOVING HIM.

WHERE DOES THIS STAND NOW?

IS THAT REALLY A POSSIBILITY OR

IS PARTY COMING AROUND HIM?

WELL, THIS COULD BE A

LENGTHY ANSWER FROM I KNOW WE

DON'T HAVE A LOT OF TIME THOUGH

I AM PAID BY THE MINUTE SO

THAT'S A GOOD THING I GUESS

FROM A PERSONAL STANDPOINT.

LOOK, THIS IS SHIFTING.

YOU KNOW, WE ALREADY HAVE SOME

NEW REPORTING OUT BY THE FAMED

LEGENDARY REPORTER CARL

BERNSTEIN TALKING HOW BIDEN

FOLKS CLOSE TO BIDEN HAVE SAID

THAT THEY'VE SEEN THIS HAPPEN.

WHAT WE SAW THAT DEBATE ABOUT

15, 20 TIMES OR SO IN JUST IN

THE LAST YEAR OR SO.

DARE I SAY THE WORD COVER UP

BUT THERE HAS BEEN ACCORDING TO

DEMOCRAT SOURCES A COVER UP OF

SORTS, IF YOU WILL TO SHIELD

PRESIDENT BIDEN FROM WHAT WAS

DISPLAYED ON THURSDAY NIGHT.

IT'S NOW ALL OUT IN THE OPEN

AND SO WHERE DOES THIS GO?

WE DON'T REALLY KNOW AT THIS

POINT.

AT THIS POINT IT'S ALL GOING TO

BE ABOUT JOE AND JOE BIDEN AND

WHAT THEY DECIDE THAT THE FOR

THE DEMOCRATS HERE IS THAT THIS

UNLIKE OTHER CRISES THAT COME

UP IN THE PAST THAT GO AWAY,

YOU KNOW, GIVE IT GIVE IT A

WEEK, GIVE IT TWO WEEKS, GIVE

IT A MONTH AND THEN THE MEDIA

MOVES ON TO SOMETHING ELSE

THAT'S NOT THIS FROM THIS IS

GOING TO GET WORSE.

WHY IS IT GOING TO GET WORSE

BECAUSE OF JOE BIDEN'S AGE

EVERY DAY HE GETS A DAY OLDER

AND SO THE MISHAPS ARE GOING TO

CONTINUE THE NARRATIVE CONTINUE

AND I'M NOT QUITE SURE HOW

BIDEN GETS OUT IT AT THIS

POINT.

ALL RIGHT.

DAVID BRODY, THANK YOU SO MUCH

FOR JOINING US.

WANT TO TURN NOW TO THE WAR

IN ISRAEL.

PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN

NETANYAHU SAYS THE IDF IS CLOSE

TO ENDING A MAJOR PHASE OF THE

WAR IN.

AS CHRIS MITCHELL REPORTS FROM

JERUSALEM, THAT COULD MEAN A

STEP TOWARDS A WIDER WAR ON THE

NORTHERN BORDER.

ISRAELI PRIME MINISTER

BENJAMIN NETANYAHU TOLD A GROUP

OF ARMY CADETS THE IDF IS CLOSE

TO DESTROYING HAMAS'S

CAPABILITIES.

THE IDF ALSO ANNOUNCED AN

EVACUATION OF KHAN YUNIS TO GET

CIVILIANS OUT OF HARM'S WAY AS

IT PREPARES AN OFFENSIVE TO

CLEAR OUT HAMAS TERRORISTS WHO

FLED THERE FROM RAFAH.

MEANWHILE THE BIDEN

ADMINISTRATION SAYS ISRAEL MUST

EVENTUALLY LET ALL GAZANS

RETURN AND SETTLE IN THE

TERRITORY.

U.S. SECRETARY OF STATE ANTONY

BLINKEN LAID OUT THE ADMINISTER

TERMS FOR GAZA AFTER THE WAR.

AND WE KNOW THAT ARE THREE

THINGS THAT ARE UNACCEPTABLE

FOR FOR GAZA'S FUTURE AN

ISRAELI OCCUPATION.

HAMAS PERPETUATING ITS

LEADERSHIP OR CHAOS ANARCHY,

LAWLESSNESS WHICH IS WHAT WE'RE

SEEING IN BIG PARTS OF GAZA.

BLINKEN ALSO BELIEVES

THERE'S STILL A POSSIBILITY OF

CEASEFIRE IN EXCHANGE FOR

HOSTAGES BUT POINTS THE FINGER

AT HAMAS LEADER YAHYA SINWAR AS

THE OBSTACLE.

MR. SINWAR IS NOT ONLY

HOLDING ON TO ISRAELI AMERICAN

AND OTHER HOSTAGES HE'S

CONTINUING TO MAKE A HOSTAGE OF

PALESTINIAN CHILDREN, WOMEN AND

MEN ON THE BORDER.

THE FIGHTING CONTINUES BETWEEN

HEZBOLLAH AND ISRAEL.

IN JUNE HEZBOLLAH HAS FIRED

NEARLY 300 SUICIDE DRONES,

MISSILES AND ROCKETS INTO

NORTHERN ISRAEL.

BLINKEN ADDRESSED THE

POSSIBILITY OF AN ALL OUT WAR

BETWEEN THE TWO.

60 THOUSAND OR SO ISRAELIS

WHO'VE BEEN FORCED FROM THEIR

HOMES IN NORTHERN ISRAEL.

ISRAEL HAS EFFECTIVELY LOST

SOVEREIGNTY THE NORTHERN

QUADRANT OF ITS COUNTRY BECAUSE

PEOPLE DON'T FEEL SAFE TO GO TO

THEIR HOMES.

ON MONDAY THE

ANTI-DEFAMATION LEAGUE FILED A

LAWSUIT FOR VICTIMS OF THE

OCTOBER 7TH MASSACRE.

THE ANTI-DEFAMATION LEAGUE CEO

JONATHAN ANNOUNCED THAT THE

LEGAL ACTION TARGETS IRAN AND

NORTH KOREA.

THIS LAWSUIT ON BEHALF OF

MORE THAN A HUNDRED AMERICANS

WHO ARE AFFECTED BY THIS ATTACK

WILL INDEED ENSURE THAT THERE

ARE CONSEQUENCES TO BE BROUGHT

FOR THE BLOODIEST DAY

EXPERIENCED BY THE JEWISH

PEOPLE SINCE THE HOLOCAUST.

THE LAWSUIT IS DEMANDING $4

BILLION IN COMPENSATION AND

ACCUSES THESE COUNTRIES OF

PROVIDING MONEY WEAPONS AND

OTHER ASSISTANCE THAT MADE THE

VISIT WATCH CBSNEWS.COM FIND

WHERE TO WATCH.

THERE'S A NEW ON THE RISE IN

MODERN WARFARE.

U.S. AIR FORCE LEADERS POINT

SMALL DRONES AS ONE OF THE TOP

THREATS IN COMBAT.

MARK TRAVELED TO THE TOP

MILITARY SITE TASKED WITH

MEETING THIS CHALLENGE.

HERE'S HIS REPORT FROM GRAND

FORKS AIR FORCE BASE IN NORTH

DAKOTA.

RUSSIA'S WAR ON UKRAINE IS

BRINGING DRONE WARFARE FRONT

AND CENTER SHOWCASING HOW THESE

UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES ARE

USED FOR SURVEILLANCE AND

COMBAT.

THIS FOOTAGE REPORTEDLY

RELEASED BY UKRAINIAN SPECIAL

FORCES APPEARS TO SHOW A DRONE

DESTROYING, A RUSSIAN ARMORED

VEHICLE AND TANK.

THEN THERE'S ACTUALLY DRONE ON

DRONE COMBAT.

THIS VIDEO DEPICTS A DRONE

DOGFIGHT REPORTEDLY INVOLVING

EQUIPMENT USED FOR SURVEILLANCE

BY UKRAINIAN RUSSIAN ARMED

FORCES.

THERE'S VERY LITTLE

PROTECTION IN THE WAY OF

ANTI-DRONE MEASURES AND IT'S

NOT JUST IN THE AIR.

HERE YOU SEE WHAT APPEARS TO

BE A UKRAINIAN SEA DRONE

ATTACKING A RUSSIAN TANKER SHIP

IN THE BLACK SEA.

A NORTH DAKOTA'S GRAND FORKS

AIR FORCE BASE THEY'RE NOT

TAKING THE USE OF DRONES

LIGHTLY.

THE 3/19 RECONNAISSANCE WING

SMALL UAV PROGRAM IS THE FIRST

AN AIR COMBAT COMMAND TO SUCH A

PROGRAM WITH OPERATORS FROM

MULTIPLE UNITS.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO FAR TO

GO LOOK AT WHAT'S HAPPENING

AROUND THE WORLD.

RIGHT.

IT IS NO SECRET WHAT OUR

ADVERSARIES ARE DOING WITH

THESE THINGS.

CAPTAIN MATTHEW GROLL IS THE

VICE CHAIRMAN FOR UNMANNED

AERIAL SYSTEMS OPERATIONS HERE.

THESE THINGS CAN WEAPONIZED

AND THEY CAN BE USED TO HURT

PEOPLE AND THINGS AND WHAT THAT

MEANS IS WE AS THE DEPARTMENT

OF DEFENSE IN THE UNITED STATES

AIR FORCE HAVE TO GO OUT THERE

AND COUNTER THAT THREAT.

ONE DRONE THAT AIRMEN TRAIN

ON IS THE QUADCOPTER STYLE

SKYDOME TWO D.

THE SECURITY FORCES UNIT

EMPLOYS IT TO DEFEND BASE

THROUGH PERIMETER SCANS OR

IDENTIFYING THREATS FROM THE

SKY THAT USE CAN ALSO TRANSFER

TO OVERSEAS BASES THAT GOES

EVEN BEYOND INTO THE DEPLOYED

MISSIONS THAT WE SERVE WHERE

OUR COMMANDERS ARE CONSTANTLY

UNDER THREAT FROM THE OUTSIDE

OF THE WIRE THREAT.

THOSE THREATS ARE IMMEDIATELY

ANSWERED BY THIS TYPE

TECHNOLOGY.

SENIOR AIRMAN TAVI EFRON

OPERATES THE DRONE SAYS IT'S

PRETTY IMPRESSIVE WHAT THEY CAN

DO.

FOR INSTANCE, MAYBE ACTIVE

SHOOTERS.

YOU KNOW THERE'S SOMETHING

LOCATING AN INDIVIDUAL IN THAT

ASPECT TO GET EYES ON TO

SOMEBODY ELSE TO IS IN PART OF

THAT MISSION CONTROL CAN SEE

WHAT'S GOING AND MAYBE REDIRECT

US IN WAYS THAT WE DIDN'T THINK

ON THE GROUND COULD BE DONE.

GROLL SAYS THEY ALSO USE IT

FOR AIRCRAFT RECOVERY TRAINING

AND IF REQUIRED COULD FLY IT TO

SURVEY A CRASH SITE.

YOU WOULD SEE WHATEVER

CAMERA SEES ON THE AIRCRAFT

ITSELF.

MEMBERS OF THE AIRCRAFT

MAINTENANCE GAVE US A DEMO OF

THE SKY TO GO STUDY.

SO I'M GOING TO GET A LITTLE

BIT OF ALTITUDE HERE TO GET

AWAY FROM THINGS CHANGE OVER TO

MY WAYPOINT MISSION AND THEN

I'LL JUST HIT PLAY AND THEN THE

AIRCRAFT DOES WHAT IT'S ALREADY

TO DO.

MASTER SERGEANT MATTHEW

ROBERTS SAYS USING A SYSTEM

LIKE THIS TO SURVEY AND ASSESS

DAMAGES SAVES TIME, MONEY AND.

IT ELIMINATES A LOT OF BOOTS

ON THE GROUND AND A SENSE TO TO

DO WHAT WE NEED TO DO IN A

SHORT TIME AND CAPTURE WHAT WE

NEED TO DO WITHOUT SPENDING A

LOT OF RESOURCES AHEAD OF TIME

.

MAKE THE JOB AND THE MISSION

HAPPEN QUICKLY AND SAFELY.

THERE ARE ACTUALLY TWO ACTIVE

DUTY MILITARY MISSIONS

INVOLVING UNMANNED AERIAL

OPERATING HERE AT GRAND FORKS

AIR FORCE BASE IN TO THE SKY

AUDIO WHICH YOU ALREADY SAW.

ANOTHER UNIT OPERATES WHAT'S

CALLED THE R2 FOR OR GLOBAL

HAWK.

YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE WORLD'S

LARGEST DRONE THE 3/40

RECONNAISSANCE SQUADRON HERE

FLIES THE GLOBAL HAWK.

THE LONG ENDURANCE AIRCRAFT CAN

REACH EXTREMELY HIGH ALTITUDES

OF 50 TO 60000 FEET.

CAPTAIN MARK COCHRAN

REMOTELY PILOTS THE LARGE SCALE

SYSTEM THAT PROVIDES GLOBAL DAY

OR NIGHT SURVEILLANCE AND

RECONNAISSANCE.

THE IQ FOR GLOBAL HAWK IS A

PREMIER INTELLIGENCE ASSET THAT

IS ONE OF THE ONLY ASSETS

THAT'S CAPABLE OF GIVING A LONG

COLLECTION TIME WITHOUT NEEDING

AERIAL REFUELING.

I FEEL LIKE THAT'S ITS BIGGEST

SPRING TO ANY KIND OF AIR

COMBATANT COMMANDER.

BRAD BOWMAN OF THE

FOUNDATION FOR DEFENSE OF

THESE DRONE SYSTEMS

FUNDAMENTALLY IMPORTANT THE

U.S. MILITARY.

WE REALLY ARE UNFORTUNATELY

CONTINUE TO BE IN AN ARMS RACE

AGAINST ADVERSARIES THAT ARE

BUILDING DRONES.

OBVIOUSLY RUSSIA HAS DRONES.

THEY'RE WORKING WITH IRAN ON

THEIR DRONES.

CHINA IS A MAJOR DEVELOPER AND

EXPORTER OF DRONES.

THE COUNTRY THAT HAS THE MOST

ADVANCED DRONES THE QUANTITY OF

DRONES THAT EMPLOYS THEM

EFFECTIVELY IT'S GOING TO HAVE

LIFE AND DEATH CONSEQUENCES THE

BATTLEFIELD.

AND AIRMEN AT THE GRAND

FORKS AIR FORCE BASE ARE FULLY

DESCRIBING THIS TECH AS A GAME

CHANGER IN A TIME OF WAR AND

ANOTHER WAY AMERICANS CAN FEEL

SAFE.

MARK MARTIN, CBS NEWS, GRAND

FORKS, NORTH DAKOTA.

WELL INDEED, WARFARE HAS

CERTAINLY CHANGED BOOTS ON THE

GROUND AND I THINK THAT THAT

GLOBAL HAWK GOES 60,000 FEET IN

ALTITUDE.

INCREDIBLE.

IT'S A GREAT AT HOW OUR U.S.

CALL 885 1717 THAT'S 885 1717.

CALL NOW BILL REMEMBERS TWO

THINGS FROM HIS ACCIDENT.

FIRST THE PAIN.

THAT'S UNDERSTANDABLE

CONSIDERING THAT HE HAD

MULTIPLE BROKEN BONES.

THE SECOND THING HE

REMEMBERS THE PRAYERS FROM HIS

FAMILY AND THAT HE SAYS IS WHAT

SAVED HIS LIFE.

IT HAD BEEN HOURS SINCE PHYLLIS

PHELPS HUSBAND BILL LEFT TO RUN

A QUICK AARON BEFORE THEY WENT

ON VACATION.

FINALLY SHE CALLED HIM AND I

THOUGHT WHAT IN THE WORLD?

SHE SAID BILL'S BEEN IN A

BAD ACCIDENT.

WE DON'T KNOW IF HE'S GOING

TO MAKE IT.

THE WHO PHYLLIS KNEW.

I'D SEEN IT HAPPEN.

BILL WAS GOING THROUGH AN

INTERSECTION ON HIS MOTORCYCLE

WHEN A VAN A RED LIGHT SWERVING

TO AVOID A COLLISION.

HE LOST CONTROL AND WAS THROWN

40 FEET ACROSS THE PAVEMENT.

HE WASN'T WEARING A HELMET.

IT WAS SO MANY EMOTIONS AT

ONE TIME THAT HIT YOU.

MY FIRST INSTINCT IS ALWAYS TO

PRAY.

WHEN PHIL HAS ARRIVED AT THE

LOCAL HOSPITAL THE STAFF WAS

PREPPING BILL FOR A MEDEVAC

FLIGHT TO DARTMOUTH-HITCHCOCK

MEDICAL CENTER IN LEBANON, NEW

HAMPSHIRE.

MY PRAYER WAS OH GOD, JUST

LET HIM LIVE.

BILL WAS OUT AND I JUST TOUCHED

HIS FOOT AND I PRAYED TO THE

LORD AND I FELT LIKE THE HOLY

SPIRIT NOT AN AUDIBLE VOICE BUT

JUST SAD BILLY FOR LIFE.

SOON AFTER PHYLLIS AND HER

ADULT CHILDREN BEGAN THE 70

MILE DRIVE TO DARTMOUTH MEDICAL

CENTER.

WE DIDN'T KNOW WE WOULD MAKE

IT TO THE HOSPITAL BEFORE HE

DIED.

AFTER ARRIVED, PHYLLIS

LEARNED BILL HAD NUMEROUS

INJURIES THAT INCLUDED BROKEN

RIBS, PUNCTURED LUNG AND A

NEARLY SEVERED.

ONE INJURY, HOWEVER, WAS LIFE

THREATENING A LEVEL FOUR BRAIN

TRAUMA THAT WOULD REQUIRE

IMMEDIATE SURGERY TO GET THE

BRAIN SWELLING UNDER CONTROL.

IF PHYLLIS AGREED.

THE DOCTOR SAID TO ME IF WE

DON'T DO THE SURGERY HE WILL

SURELY DIE.

IF HE DOES LIVE HE WOULD BE A

VEGETABLE.

SO THAT WAS TO BE INTO ALL MY

DECISION.

ARE YOU READY TO TAKE CARE

OF SOMEONE FOR THE REST OF

THEIR LIFE?

AS I SAID OF COURSE.

DO WHAT YOU CAN TO SAVE HIM.

THEY SAID YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN

TO SAY GOODBYE.

AND SO I BROUGHT THE KIDS IN

THE ROOM AND I SAID GOD HAS THE

FINAL SAY.

DOCTORS REMOVE PART OF BILL'S

SKULL TO ALLEVIATE THE PRESSURE

ON HIS SWOLLEN.

NOW AS BILL LAY IN A MEDICALLY

INDUCED COMA, ALL THEY COULD DO

WAS WAIT.

IT WASN'T HOPEFUL AND I

DIDN'T KNOW HOW MUCH OF HIM I

WOULD GET BACK.

SOON THE WAITING ROOM WAS FULL

OF PEOPLE PRAYING FOR BILL AND

THE FAMILY.

EVEN I WAS IN SUCH SORROW, IN

SUCH SHOCK I FELT AWAY FROM THE

PRESENCE OF THE LORD BECAUSE IT

WAS A FRONTAL LOBE INJURY.

BILL'S DOCTORS GAVE PHYLLIS

LITTLE HOPE THAT BILL'S MEMORY

WOULD RECOVER.

BY DAY 12 THE BRAIN SWELLING

HAD GONE DOWN ENOUGH THAT THEY

WERE ABLE TO BRING HIM OUT OF

THE COMA.

HE DIDN'T KNOW WHO ALL WERE.

I DIDN'T KNOW IF HE WOULD EVER

REMEMBER US.

I REMEMBER EXTRAORDINARY AMOUNT

OF PAIN.

I REMEMBER MY FAMILY PRAYING

FOR ME?

TWO DAYS LATER BILL TRANSFERRED

CATHOLIC MEDICAL CENTER IN

MANCHESTER, NEW HAMPSHIRE FOR

REHAB.

THERE HE STARTED RELEARNING HOW

TO EAT, SPEAK AND, WALK.

EVEN THEN, DOCTORS DIDN'T

EXPECT BILL WOULD MAKE A FULL

RECOVERY.

THE DOCTORS TOOK ME IN AND TOLD

ME THAT I WOULDN'T GET MY

HUSBAND BACK.

HE WILL BE A VERY DIFFERENT MAN

THAN I'M USED TO.

I NEEDED TO PREPARE MYSELF.

MEANWHILE, BILL HAD THAN JUST

PHYSICAL STRUGGLES.

I HAD TO WALK AND TALK IN

RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD.

HOW COULD HE LET THIS HAPPEN TO

ME?

FRUSTRATION TURNED INTO ANGER

MOSTLY BECAUSE I COULDN'T

UNDERSTAND AND HE WOULD SAY TO

ME I CAN'T FIND MYSELF AND.

I WOULD TELL HIM GOD KNOWS

WHERE YOU'RE CORRECT.

GOD KNOWS EXACTLY WHERE YOU'RE

AT.

AND HE WILL FIND YOU BY NOW.

PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD WERE

PRAYING FOR BILL.

OVER THE NEXT MONTH HE SLOWLY

IMPROVED.

AND ON SEPTEMBER 10TH HE WAS

RELEASED TO GO.

GETTING HIM HOME WAS GREAT

VICTORY.

BUT HAVING HIM THERE WAS A

GREAT CHALLENGE.

YOU COULD FEEL PRAYERS.

IT GAVE ME A LOT OF HOPE, A

LOT OF DETERMINATION MOSTLY

BECAUSE OF THE LOVE THAT I WAS

SURROUNDED BY BY MY FAMILY.

ALL OF THOSE PRAYING FOR ME.

WHILE CONTINUED WITH OUTPATIENT

REHAB, HE SAYS HIS PERSPECTIVE

TOWARD GOD BEGAN TO CHANGE.

MY ANGER WAS TURNING INTO

BEING THANKFUL.

I DON'T LIKE WHAT HAPPENED TO

ME.

I WILL.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

I NEVER WILL UNDERSTAND.

I TRIED NOW TO THANK HIM FOR

THE THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING

THE BLESSINGS THAT I GET TO

ENJOY EVERY DAY.

I HAVE EIGHT GRANDCHILDREN.

SIX OF THEM I WOULD HAVE NEVER

MET IF GOD SPARE MY LIFE.

BILL WOULD STILL NEED

MULTIPLE SURGERIES REHAB OVER

THE NEXT TWO YEARS WITH THE

HELP OF PHYSICAL THERAPY.

HE IS ALMOST BACK TO HIS

NORMAL LIFE BECAUSE HE HAD BEEN

PROVING HE DID WALK AGAIN HE

SAT AT THE SOCCER HE MOW THE

LAWN HE LEARNED TO DRIVE AGAIN.

IT'S BEEN A LONG LONG HAUL

AND IT'S NOT BEEN EASY FOR

EITHER OF US.

TODAY BILL AND PHYLLIS

BELIEVE THAT IT WAS THE POWER

OF PRAYER THAT BROUGHT HIM BACK

TO THE LIFE HE LOVES.

GOD IS THE MIRACLE WORKER.

HE'S STILL IN THE MIRACLE AND

BUSINESS.

JESUS CHRIST IS FAITHFUL.

NO MATTER WHAT YOU FACE.

DON'T TURN TOOK FROM GOD AND

RUN

HE'S WORTHY TO PUT YOUR TRUST

IN.

HE DOESN'T YOU TO WALK THROUGH

THIS LIFE ALONE.

WHATEVER INJURIES YOU SUSTAIN

IN LIFE YOU NEED JESUS CHRIST.

THAT'S THE ANSWER.

HERE IS THE ANSWER, ISN'T

IT?

YOU KNOW LIFE IS FULL OF

SUDDENLY IS WHEN WE LEAST

EXPECTED THINGS HAPPEN THAT WE

DIDN'T SEE AND THEY ARE LIFE

CHANGING VERY OFTEN.

AND YET I LOVE WHAT HIS WIFE

SAID GOD HAS THE FINAL WORD.

AND SO TODAY I DON'T KNOW WHAT

YOUR NEED IS.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR PETITION

TO THE LORD IS ABOUT OR FOR BUT

I KNOW THIS HE HAS FINAL ANSWER

AND I ALSO KNOW THAT JUST LIKE

BILL HE KNOWS YOUR NAME.

HE KNOWS WHERE YOU ARE.

HE KNOWS WHAT YOU'RE GOING

THROUGH AND HE HAS THAT

PROMISES MADE TO ALL OF US THAT

ALL THINGS NOT SOME THINGS BUT

ALL THINGS MAY BE THE DIFFICULT

NEGATIVE CHALLENGING THINGS

WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD TO THOSE

WHO LOVE GOD.

THAT'S YOU.

THAT'S YOU.

SO TODAY WE WANT TO JOIN HEARTS

JOIN HANDS WITH YOU.

WE WANT TO PRAY FOR YOU RIGHT

IN THE MIDST OF YOUR

CIRCUMSTANCE AND ASK GOD TO

MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN WHAT IT IS

YOU'RE FACING.

SO LET'S DO THAT TOGETHER.

OKAY?

READY?

LET'S PRAY.

WELL, FATHER, WE LOVE YOU.

WE KNOW THAT YOU ARE BIGGER

THAN ANYTHING WE CAN IMAGINE.

WE KNOW THAT INVOLVED ALL OF

THIS.

WHAT YOU'RE ASKING US TO DO IS

TO SURRENDER TO YOUR GOODNESS,

TRUST YOUR HEART.

ESPECIALLY WHEN WE CAN'T SEE

ANYTHING ESPECIALLY WHEN WE

DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THINGS

HAVE HAPPENED.

TO BELIEVE THAT YOUR HEART IS

GOOD ALL THE TIME AND THAT YOUR

GOODNESS IS CHASING AFTER US AS

TODAY CASEY DREAMED OF BECOMING

AN MMA FIGHTER HE TRAINED

NEARLY EVERY DAY HE SPARRED

WITH OTHER PROFESSIONAL

FIGHTERS EVEN MAKING SOME OF

THEM TAP OUT.

STILL THERE WAS ONE FIGHT HE

COULDN'T WIN AND IT NEARLY COST

HIM HIS MARRIAGE.

AS A MARRIED MAN I HAD NO

BUSINESS BEING IN THERE AND I

JUST FELT THE LUST AND LUST IS

HEAVY.

I ALWAYS USED TO JUDGE DAVID

UNTIL I BECAME HIM.

CASEY MILES WAS, A CHAMPION

HIGH SCHOOL WRESTLER WITH A

ROUGH PAST.

DURING HIS JUNIOR YEAR HE

FELL IN LOVE WITH HIS CLASSMATE

MELISSA WHO WAS DEVOUT

CHRISTIAN.

WE BECAME FRIENDS FIRST AND AT

THE SAME TIME MY SPANISH

TEACHER INTRODUCED TO ME THE

BIBLE.

HE STARTED READING ME

SCRIPTURE AND ASKING ME IF I

KNEW.

SO I STARTED DOING BIBLE STUDY

WITH HIM AND MELISSA SAW THAT

AND THAT GAVE HER SOME

CONFIDENCE DATE ME THOSE SCENES

WHERE THAT WERE PLANTED IN ME

BY MY MESSAGE WERE IMPORTANT

VERY IMPORTANT.

THEY GOT MARRIED WHEN.

THEY WERE 19 YEARS OLD.

CASEY WRESTLED IN JUNIOR

COLLEGE THEN TRAINING FOR

INMATE CAGE FIGHTING.

WHEN WE WERE AND AT THAT

STAGE IN OUR LIFE FIGHTING WAS

RELATIVELY NEW SO I DIDN'T KNOW

REALLY WHAT TO EXPECT AS FAR AS

LIFESTYLE AND HOW IT WOULD

AFFECT OUR MARRIAGE.

I WANTED TO WIN.

I WANTED TO SHOW PEOPLE THAT

THE UNDERDOG CAN WIN LIKE THE

ROCKY.

I WANTED TO LIVE STORY.

I WANTED TO GET IN THAT CAGE

AND I WANTED TO FIGHT.

I WAS TOP AND PRO FIGHTERS, YOU

KNOW.

ONCE I SEEN THAT I WAS LIKE

THIS IS ME.

I'M A FIGHTER.

IN HIS HOMETOWN IN CALIFORNIA,

CASEY HIMSELF INTO MMO TRAINING

NEARLY EVERY DAY ON THE.

HE TRAINED IN LAS VEGAS WITH A

GOAL OF FIGHTING IN THE UFC.

MY WRESTLING COACH ROCKY HE

WARNED ME AGAINST TRAINING WITH

CERTAIN PEOPLE IN ME AND HE

TOLD ME HOW IT'LL CHANGE YOU

AND HE MEANT MORALLY.

THIS IS WHEN THE PROBLEM

STARTED AND FOR ME I DIDN'T

KNOW HOW PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES

WERE YOU KNOW I WENT TO THE

STRIP CLUBS WITH THEM AND AT

FIRST WHEN I WENT MY HANDSHAKE

VIOLENTLY AND IT ONLY DID THAT

THREE TIMES.

ANOTHER TIME MY HAND AND SHAKE

ANYMORE I KNEW IT WAS WRONG

BEING IN THERE BUT IT WAS SO

EXOTIC LIKE MY LIKE JUST SEEING

ALL THAT I WAS LIKE WHAT THE

HECK?

I MEAN YOU'RE ALL KINDS OF

GIRLS EVERY SHAPE AND COLOR AND

AND FLESH IS POWERFUL.

ABSOLUTELY POWERFUL.

THAT TEMPTATION WAS HEAVY.

HEAVY AND I DID NOT LIKE IT

BECAUSE I KNEW IT WAS WRONG.

I WAS I WAS.

EVERY TIME I LEFT I LITERALLY

LOOKED UP AND SAID I'M SORRY,

GOD.

I KNEW WHAT I WAS DOING WAS

WRONG BUT I COULDN'T STOP.

I KEPT GOING BACK TO STRIP

CLUBS BEFORE LONG CASEY GAVE IN

TO TEMPTATION AND BEGAN HAVING

AN AFFAIR WITH A DANCER.

MELISSA FOUND OUT WHAT WAS

GOING AND WAS DEVASTATED.

I COULDN'T BEAR IT ANYMORE.

I WAS AT THE END OF MY ROOM.

I WAS CONSTANTLY SAD, DEPRESSED

AND I JUST ASKED HIM DID YOU

KNOW HE WAS A FIGHTER AND I

WANTED HIM TO FIGHT FOR US.

I WAS TRYING TO BUY TIME

BECAUSE.

I'M TRYING TO GET ON THE

ULTIMATE FIGHTER SHOW AND SHE

WENT TO THE BANK AND GOT HALF

THE MONEY OUT OF THE BANK

ACCOUNT AND SHE COMES HOME AND

SHE DOES OUT AND SHE SAYS NO,

NO, YOU HAVE A CHOICE HALF THIS

IS YOURS.

YOU WANT THAT LIFE.

YOU GO TAKE THIS MONEY AND

LEAVE YOUR RING.

I'M WITHIN RIGHT TO DIVORCE

YOU.

AND WHEN SHE SAID THAT IT

SCARED ME BECAUSE MOST TRULY IN

MY MIND THE ONLY PERSON THAT

LOVED ME UNCONDITIONALLY AND

THAT'S WHEN I CALLED UP MY

SPANISH TEACHER AND I ASKED HIM

WHAT DO I DO?

AND HE SAYS YOU GET DOWN ON

YOUR KNEES AND YOU CROWD TO

GOD.

AND I WAS LIKE, I DON'T I DON'T

HAVE TIME FOR THIS.

I HAD BECOME SO EGOTISTICAL I

DIDN'T HAVE TIME FOR AND I HAVE

TIME FOR YEARS IT WAS ALL ABOUT

ME.

I WAS SO SELFISH I WANTED TO BE

IN THE UFC.

I WANTED TO BE A CHAMPION.

HE CAME UP AND HE SHOWED ME WHO

I WAS IN THE BIBLE AND I'M LIKE

THAT'S NOT ME.

HE SAID WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO

DO?

AND I PICK MYSELF.

I PICKED MY WIFE AND WHEN

SHE CAME HOME FROM WORK THAT

DAY I WAS STILL HOME AND SHE

GOES GOOD, NOW YOU'RE MOVING.

CASEY MOVED IN WITH HIS HIGH

SCHOOL TEACHER AND AVOIDED

OUTSIDE INFLUENCES FROM THE IMA

WORLD.

INSTEAD HE BEGAN READING THE

BIBLE.

WHEN I STARTED READING ABOUT

JESUS.

THERE'S NOTHING ELSE I WANTED.

I WAS I WAS HOOKED FROM VERY

SECOND I OPENED THAT BIBLE.

I HAD NOTHING ELSE.

THERE'S NOTHING ELSE I COULD

DO.

I COULDN'T GO THE GYM.

I WAS WORKING AT HOME BUT I

JUST WENT IN THE BIBLE AND I'M

LIKE WHY?

I WOULD JUST LOOK UP AND SAY

WHY DO YOU DO THIS FOR US?

LIKE I KNOW WHO I AM, I'M

SELFISH AND JUST STARTED

FALLING IN LOVE WITH JESUS AND

I JUST STARTED TO MISS MY WIFE

AND I SPENT SIX MONTHS ALONE

WITHOUT HER AND THAT'S WHEN I

STARTED TO GROW WITH THE LORD.

MELISSA SAW THE CHANGES

TAKING PLACE IN CASEY'S HEART

AND CHARACTER.

IT WAS TURNING THE TABLES.

HE WAS HE WAS THINKING MORE

ABOUT US AS A COUPLE IN OUR

MARRIAGE AND GOD'S PLAN THEN

HIS POOR THEN HIS OWN PLAN AS I

GOT CLOSER TO JESUS WAS GETTING

CLOSER AND CLOSER WE WOULD READ

BIBLES TOGETHER, WE'D SCRIPTURE

TOGETHER AND GO WORK TOGETHER

AND SHE BECAME MY TRAINING

PARTNER.

SHE BECAME MY BEST FRIEND.

I FELL IN LOVE WITH MY SO

DIFFERENT.

I FELL IN LOVE HER SOUL.

CASEY COMMITTED HIS LIFE TO

CHRIST.

THEY MOVED BACK IN TOGETHER AND

SOON AFTER HE STARTED A FAMILY.

TODAY THEIR MARRIAGE IS SOLID

WITH JESUS AS THE FOUNDATION

MAN.

WE WERE JUST TWO YOUNG PEOPLE.

IT WAS REAL LOVE.

IT REALLY WAS.

BUT I WAS IN LOVE WITH MYSELF

TOO.

NOW I'M IN LOVE HER AND NOT ME.

AND THAT'S THAT'S WHAT I'M

PICKING UP ACROSS.

CARRYING ON DAILY MEANS IS YOU

PICK HIM AND YOU PICK YOUR WIFE

OVER YOURSELF.

I CAME IN BACK INTO MY LIFE,

BACK INTO MY HUSBAND'S LIFE AND

WE BOTH HAD TO REALLY JUST

TRUST AND RELY ON HIM AND GROW

IN HIM AND I THINK THAT'S

ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT

THINGS IS THAT WE BOTH CHOSE TO

STAY AND GROW TOWARDS GOD.

I HAVE A GOOD LIFE AND I

DON'T DESERVE IT BUT I'M

GRATEFUL.

IF YOUR MARRIAGE IS

STRUGGLING BE ENCOURAGED BY

THAT TESTIMONY.

LISTEN, CASEY WAS A TOUGH DUDE

IN BRUTAL FIGHTS A TOUGH GUY

WITH BIG GOALS AND AS TOUGH AS

HE WAS, HE ACKNOWLEDGED IT AND

HE ADMITTED HE WAS NOT TOUGH

ENOUGH TO THE LOSS OF THE

FLESH.

AND THAT'S A STRUGGLE.

IT IS REALLY FOR OUR ENTIRE

LIVES.

GALATIANS FIVE TALKS ABOUT IT

THE FLESH AND THE SPIRIT THERE

COMBAT WITH EACH OTHER.

IT'S A WAR AND YOU DON'T

NEED TO BE FRIGHTENED OF THAT.

THERE'S HOPE IN CHRIST FOR

SURE BECAUSE THROUGH CHRIST

THOSE FLESHLY DESIRES ARE

CRUCIFIED.

WE READ IN GALATIANS BUT NO

THIS IS GOING TO BE A THING IN

OUR LIVES FIGHTING AGAINST THE

FLESH.

BUT HE SURRENDERED TO JESUS.

NOT ONLY DID HE CONQUER THESE

THINGS HE BECAME A BETTER

HUSBAND BECAUSE WHEN YOU FOCUS

ON JESUS YOU BECOME A BETTER

SPOUSE.

THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT IT.

BUT I WAS SO STRUCK WHEN CASEY

SAID WENT INTO THIS CLUB HE

KNEW HE SHOULDN'T BE THERE AND

HE WAS LITERALLY TREMBLING.

REMEMBER HE SAID THAT MY

HAND WAS SHAKING BECAUSE HIS

SPIRIT KNEW THIS WAS NOT FOR

HIM.

HIS SPIRIT WAS DISTURBED AND

THAT'S A GOOD THING WHEN YOUR

SPIRIT SPEAKS AND SAYS NO I

MEAN THAT'S THE SPIRIT OF GOD

SAYING THIS IS NOT WHAT I HAVE

FOR YOU.

AND HE FINALLY BEGAN TO LISTEN

TO THE VOICE OF GOD AND THE

HOLY SPIRIT AND SAYING I NEED

TO SUBMIT THESE THINGS TO YOU.

EVEN P

SCRIPTURE OBVIOUSLY DIFFERENT

CIRCUMSTANCES FOR PAUL THE

APOSTLE PAUL.

BUT HE SAID THE THINGS I

WANT TO DO I DON'T DO AND THE

THINGS I DON'T WANT TO DO I

FIND MYSELF DOING SO THIS IS A

NATURAL PART OF THE HUMAN

CONDITION.

BUT THE GREAT NEWS IS WHEN

WE BRING THESE THINGS UNDER THE

SUBMISSION OF JESUS, THE HOLY

SPIRIT STEPS IN IN A POWERFUL

WAY AND BRINGS LAWS UNDER

CONTROL UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF

CHRIST AND HE TAKES OUR SIN AND

HE MAKES US CLEAN BECAUSE OF

THE SACRIFICE OF CHRIST ON THE

CROSS.

I WANT TO PRAY FOR TWO

THINGS IN JUST A COUPLE OF
