GREATER TODAY ON THE 700 CLUB.
WELL WELCOME SEVEN HUNDRED CLUB
THANKS SO MUCH FOR JOINING WITH
US DEMOCRAT ARE OPENING THEIR
CONVENTION TODAY IN CHICAGO
THEY'RE HOPING THE STAR POWER
FROM FORMER PRESIDENTS WILL
UNIFY THE PARTY AND KEEP WHITE
HOUSE.
THE CONVENTION IS EXPECTED
TO DRAW SOME VERY DIVISIVE
PROTESTS OVER THE SUPPORT OF
ISRAEL'S WAR AGAINST HAMAS.
CBN'S MICHELLE LONDON BRINGS US
THE STORY THE FOR A FUTURE IN
AMERICA WORDS WE CAN EXPECT TO
HEAR THROUGHOUT AS THE HARRIS
TICKET WORKS TO DEFINE ITS
POLICIES DRAW IN GEN-Z AND
RURAL WORKING CLASS VOTERS.
POLITICAL SAY THIS IS A PIVOTAL
WEEK THAT COULD SHAPE THEIR
CAMPAIGN COMING OFF OF A BUSY
MONTH CAMPAIGN TRAIL.
VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS
AND HER RUNNING MATE TIM ARE
PRIMED FOR A WEEK OF EVENTS ON
STAGE OF THE DEMOCRATIC
NATIONAL CONVENTION, CAPPING IT
ALL OFF WITH THEIR NOMINATION
FOR THE HOUSE SINCE PRESIDENT
BIDEN STEPPED.
THE HARRIS CAMPAIGN HAS
RE-ENERGIZED DEMOCRATIC VOTERS
RAISING MORE THAN $300 MILLION
AND ATTRACTING CROWDS TOPPING
10,000 THIS CAMPAIGN.
OUR CAMPAIGN IS NOT JUST A
FIGHT AGAINST DONALD TRUMP OUR
CAMPAIGN.
THIS CAMPAIGN A FIGHT FOR THE
FUTURE.
IT'S BEEN A WHIRLWIND
CAMPAIGN.
BARELY TWO WEEKS AFTER
TAKING OVER HARRIS PICKED
WALLS, THE GOVERNOR OF
MINNESOTA AS HER CHOICE FOR
VICE PRESIDENT.
WHEN WE FIGHT THEN LAUNCHING
INTO A SWING STATE TOUR WHERE
THE DUO VOICED THEIR VISION FOR
AMERICA'S FUTURE WITH ABORTION
ACCESS A TOP PRIORITY.
WE WILL PASS A BILL TO
RESTORE REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM
AND I WILL FIGHT RIGHT IT INTO
LAW AND OTHER POLICIES LIKE
STRENGTHENING THE AFFORDABLE
CARE ACT, STRICTER GUN CONTROL
AND RAISING THE MINIMUM WAGE.
WALZ, THE LONGTIME HIGH SCHOOL
AND FOOTBALL COACH, LOOKS TO
DRAW IN BLUE COLLAR VOTERS WHEN
UNIONS STRONG AMERICA IS
STRONG.
IT ALL MEANS THE RACE TO
NOVEMBER IS WITH THE POLLS
REVEALING BATTLEGROUND STATES
LEANING SLIGHTLY IN HARRIS'S
FAVOR.
WHILE THE ROAD TO CHICAGO
HAS BEEN WIDE OPEN, DEMOCRATS
WILL FACE A BUMPY RIDE AT THE
CONVENTION OVER DEEP DIVISIONS
IN THEIR PARTY ON A CRUCIAL
ISSUE.
WELL, THERE HAVE BEEN REAL
FRACTURES WITHIN THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY ON ISRAEL IN THE
PRIMARIES DEMOCRAT MEMBERS OF
CONGRESS WHO SPOKE OUT AGAINST
U.S. SUPPORT FOR ISRAEL'S WAR
AGAINST HAMAS WERE DEFEATED TWO
HIGHLY VISIBLE LOSSES.
REP CORI BUSH OF MISSOURI AND
NEW YORK CONGRESSMAN JAMAAL
BOWMAN WHO BELONG TO A
PROGRESSIVE GROUP AS THE SQUAD
THEIR OPPONENTS BOTH STRONG
BACKERS OF ISRAEL.
WHILE THE PARTY FIGHTS IT OUT
INSIDE THE CONVENTION CENTER,
TENS OF THOUSANDS OF
PRO-PALESTINIAN AND ANTI-ISRAEL
ARE EXPECTED TO GATHER IN
CHICAGO.
WE ALREADY KNOW THAT THERE
HAVE BEEN PLANS FOR PROTESTS IN
CHICAGO NEXT WEEK SO IT'S
DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT THE
PARTY IS GOING TO BE REALLY
TRYING TO DO CAREFULLY
MANEUVER.
POLITICO'S MERIDITH MCGRAW
PREDICTS LOUD VOICES WILL ADD
PRESSURE FOR HARRIS TO VOICE A
CLEAR STANCE WEEK.
VICE PRESIDENT HARRIS IS
REALLY TRYING TO A FINE LINE
BETWEEN NOT ABANDONING VOTERS
AND SUPPORTERS WHO ARE FURTHER
LEFT TO HAVE BEEN CALLING FOR A
CEASE FIRE AND WHO HAVE BEEN
PROTESTING THE BINYAMIN
POLICIES WHEN IT COMES TO
ISRAEL AND ALSO DEFENDING AN
ALLY OF THE US.
ONE WAY THE DNC TO BRING
UNITY TO THE PARTY SUPPORT FROM
PAST LEADERSHIP.
THE ONE THING MCGRAW SAYS MAY
HAVE BEEN MISSING AT THE
REPUBLICAN CONVENTION YOU
DIDN'T SEE OTHER REPUBLICAN
LEADERSHIP SHARING THE STAGE
WITH TRUMP.
IT REALLY WAS A MESSAGE THAT
THE GOP IS TRUMP'S PARTY NOW.
FORMER PRESIDENTS BARACK
OBAMA AND BILL WILL HEADLINE
THIS WEEK'S CONVENTION AS THE
PARTY ROLLS OUT ITS VISION FOR
A HARRIS PRESIDENCY AND
HEADLINING TONIGHT'S LINEUP
PRESIDENT BIDEN AND HILLARY
CLINTON WILL ADDRESS LATER IN
THE WEEK WALLS WILL OFFICIALLY
ACCEPT THE VICE PRESIDENTIAL
NOMINATION ON WEDNESDAY.
WHILE CBS NEWS CHIEF
POLITICAL ANALYST DAVID BRODY
IS WITH US NOW.
SO DAVID, HOW SERIOUS A PROBLEM
ARE WE GOING TO SEE WITH
ANTI-ISRAEL PROTESTS IN THE
CONVENTION?
IT'S GOING TO A SPECTACLE,
GORDON.
LET'S BE CLEAR AND I THINK THE
BIG YOU'LL SEE IT WILL BE THE
EVENING MONDAY EVENING AND ALSO
ON THURSDAY WHEN KAMALA HARRIS
TAKES THE STAGE.
MONDAY OF COURSE TONIGHT JOE
BIDEN WILL BE SPEAKING AND
THAT'S THE REASON THAT LOTS OF
FOLKS IN THE STREET.
WHAT DO I MEAN BY LOTS OF FOLKS
100,000 OR SO POTENTIALLY AND
THINGS COULD POTENTIALLY UGLY.
BUT LOOK, THIS IS THIS IS A
CONCERN FOR DEMOCRATS.
ULTIMATELY THIS ELECTION IS
GOING TO BE WON ON THE MARGIN
AND A LOT OF DIFFERENT GROUPS
OUT THERE THAT THEY NEED TO
WIN, ESPECIALLY JEWISH VOTERS
ARE A BEDROCK OF THEIR PARTY
AND THERE ARE SOME JEWISH
VOTERS IN PLACES LIKE
PENNSYLVANIA AND MICHIGAN THAT
THEY'RE GOING TO NEED TO HAVE
ON BOARD.
YOU KNOW, THE LARGEST JEWISH
VOTING POPULATION IN THE OF ALL
THE SWING STATES AT LEAST IS
PENNSYLVANIA.
4% OF ALL VOTERS THERE ARE
JEWISH.
THEY CAN'T AFFORD A THERE.
AND OF COURSE THEY HAVE TO ALSO
HOPE THAT THEY HAVE HIGH
TURNOUT IN MICHIGAN AS WELL
AMONG THE PRO-PALESTINE CROWD
WHICH THEY MAY NOT GET AS WELL.
SO THERE ARE A COUPLE OF DANGER
SIGNS FOR SURE.
WELL, ARE WE GOING TO SEE
SOMETHING ON THE LEVEL OF 1968?
YOU KNOW THE PROTESTS AT THAT
CONVENTION IN MY OPINION SANK
THE TICKET THEN THE RESPONSE TO
IT THE POLICE TO IT DIDN'T HELP
EITHER AND THAT WAS AN ANTI-WAR
PROTEST.
IS IS THAT AT THAT LEVEL OR TO
SEE THAT KIND OF VIOLENCE?
WELL, I THINK TO BE SEEN BUT
I THINK IT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO
BE AT THAT LEVEL AND I WE'RE
JUST GOING TO FIND OUT IN THE
NEXT 24 OR MAYBE 72 TO 96 HOURS
THIS WEEK WE'LL KNOW.
BUT I THINK IT DEFINITELY HAS
THAT POTENTIAL AND THIS IS THE
PROBLEM BECAUSE LET'S BE HONEST
BEYOND THE VIOLENCE AND
POTENTIAL FOR THAT IS
POLITICALLY SPEAKING THIS WILL
BE DISASTROUS FOR KAMALA HARRIS
AND TIM WALZ BECAUSE YOU CAN
ALREADY SEE THE READY MADE
COMMERCIALS COMING OF THIS
BEING POTENTIALLY COMPARED TO
1968.
AND OF COURSE YOU HAD THE
ANTI-SEMITIC PROTESTERS ON
COLLEGE CAMPUSES AS WELL.
AND THAT'S WHY I THINK WHAT
YOU'RE SEEING GORDON, IF YOU
NOTICE THE KAMALA HARRIS TIM
WALZ FOLKS ARE TALKING ABOUT
HOPE AND JOY.
THEY'RE NOT SAYING HOPE AND
CHANGE AND THERE'S A REASON FOR
THAT.
OF COURSE HOPE AND CHANGE IS
BARACK OBAMA'S SLOGAN.
BUT ALL OF THAT.
KAMALA HARRIS IS THE VICE
PRESIDENT.
SO WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO SAY
HOPE AND CHANGE?
WELL, WAIT A MINUTE.
SHE IS VICE PRESIDENT NOW WANT
TO CHANGE WHAT SHE'S BEEN
DOING?
I MEAN THAT DOESN'T SEND THE
RIGHT SIGNALS WHY IT'S BEEN
CALLED KIND OF A HOPE AND JOY
CAMPAIGN.
ALL RIGHT WELL, LET'S TURN
TO THE
GOING TO DEAL WITH THE ECONOMY?
SHE SEEMS TO BE COMING OUT KIND
OF NOT GOING OVER WELL THAT
SOMEHOW OR OTHER THERE'S PRICE
AT THE GROCERY STORE AND I
PERSONALLY I FIND THAT AN
INCREDIBLE THE FOOD INDUSTRY IN
AMERICA HAS TO BE ECONOMICALLY
COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT ON THE
PLANET AND TO SAY THAT SOMEHOW
OR OTHER THERE'S PRICE GOUGING
I JUST DON'T GET IT SO.
HOW IS SHE GOING TO DEAL
WITH THAT ISSUE?
THIS IS THIS IS PROBLEMATIC FOR
HER.
THERE'S SOME GOOD NEWS I'LL GET
TO THAT IN A MOMENT FOR HER.
BUT HERE'S THE BAD NEWS IT IN
ESSENCE CONTINUES TO CREATE AND
SOLIDIFY A NARRATIVE AGAINST
WHICH IS THIS IDEA THAT SHE'S
COBBLE FOR COMMUNISM MEAN THIS
IS WHAT THE TRUMP CAMPAIGN IS
GOING TO DO AND THIS IS ANOTHER
OF THOSE EXHIBIT A SITUATIONS
THAT THEY MAY BE ABLE TO WILL
INDEED BE ABLE TO EMPLOY IN THE
FALL.
LOOK, HERE'S THE IN A WAY IT'S
KIND OF THE GOOD NEWS FOR
KAMALA HARRIS RICHARD NIXON.
AS YOU KNOW, GORE TRIED THIS IN
1970S.
INFLATION WAS ABOUT 1% HIGHER
THAN IT WAS.
NOW WE TRY TO GET INFLATION
UNDER CONTROL.
IT ULTIMATELY OBVIOUSLY
BACKFIRED.
INFLATION WAS RAMPANT IN THE
1970S AFTER HE LEFT OFFICE.
BUT REMEMBER WHEN RICHARD DID
THIS HE DID IT IN 1971 IN THE
LEAD UP TO THE 1972 ELECTION
WHICH HE WON.
AND SO A SENSE IF YOU'RE GOING
TO GO APPLES TO APPLES THAT
KAMALA HARRIS MAY BE DOING
EXACT SAME THING THAT PRICE
GOUGING AS IT'S CALLED OR PRICE
SEEM TO BE RELATIVELY
SUCCESSFUL POLITICALLY WITH THE
AMERICAN ELECTORATE.
PERCENT OF FOLKS BACK IN IN THE
1970S, EARLY 1970S WERE OKAY
WITH THIS.
SO SHE MAY BE TRYING TO DO THIS
TO WIN AN ELECTION BUT THE
ECONOMIC RAMIFICATIONS LONG
TERM VERY POTENTIALLY
DISASTROUS.
WELL, DON'T THINK NIXON EVER
REALLY GOT BLAMED FOR IT.
HE GOT BLAMED FOR A LOT OF
THINGS AND A LOT OF BAD THINGS
HE DID.
BUT I THINK ANYBODY REALLY EVER
UNDERSTOOD THAT IT ACTUALLY
KILLED AND THEN WHEN THE WAGE
AND PRICE WERE LIFTED.
INFLATION DURING THE CARTER
YEARS WAS UNIMAGINABLE.
I MEAN THE INTEREST RATES GOT
UP AND THE FEDERAL PRIME RATE
WAS LIKE 15 TO 18%.
I MEAN IT WAS ABSOLUTELY
INCREDIBLE.
WELL, ANYWAY, BACK TO I
GUESS TRUMP IS HE IS HE GOING
TO REALLY CONTINUE THESE KINDS
OF PERSONAL ATTACKS JUST
DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE THE
FIRST TIME HE DID IT ON ON THE
RACE ISSUE WAS I'M SHAKING MY
HEAD WHAT WORLD ARE YOU DOING?
AND CAN HE STAY ON MESSAGE?
SO THE SHORT ANSWER IS YES.
LET ME START YES TO THE FIRST
PART OF YOUR QUESTION WHICH IS
IS HE GOING TO CONTINUE DO
THEM?
THE SECOND PART OF YOUR
QUESTION THE ANSWER IS NO, HE'S
NOT GOING TO STOP AND IT'S
GOING TO HE'S NOT GOING TO BE
ABLE TO STAY ON MESSAGE.
I MEAN HE'S GOING TO TRY AND
IT'LL BE ON PROMPTER FORM AND
HIS HANDLERS CAN ONLY THAT HE
READS IT WELL.
I MEAN, YOU KNOW, HE'S GOING
TO BE 70 80% FOCUSED ROUGHLY ON
POLICY.
LET'S LET'S JUST BE CLEAR ON
THAT.
BUT I'M NOT QUITE SURE 60 TO
80% IS GOING TO GET IT DONE.
HE'S GOING TO HAVE TO BE LASER
FOCUSED ON A CON EXCUSE ME ON
POLICY AND THAT'S NECESSARILY
GOING TO BE THE WAY HE
OPERATES.
IT NEVER HAS BEEN BOUGHT IN.
AND SO HERE HERE'S THE
PROBLEM IT WORKED FOR HIM 2016
.
YOU KNOW HE WAS TRUMP LET TRUMP
BE TRUMP.
YOU KNOW HE WAS OKAY, THAT'S
FINE.
2020 PEOPLE WERE NOT AS TIME
AROUND AND NOW 2024 YOU GET A
FEELING OUT THERE THAT THERE
COULD BE JUST AN EXHAUST AT
THIS POINT FROM IT.
AND SO I THINK THAT'S THE
DANGER CAN TRY TO REPLICATE
2016 BUT IT'S BEEN EIGHT YEARS
SINCE AND I'M NOT QUITE SURE IF
IT'S GOING TO GO OVER AS WELL.
THAT'S WHY HE HE NEEDS TO STAY
LASER FOCUSED ON POLICY.
WELL, I DON'T THINK HE'S
GOING TO AND ONE OF THE THINGS
THAT HIS CURRENT LINE OF
CAMPAIGNING TO DO A PERSONAL
AGAINST HIS OPPONENT IN MY VIEW
IT JUST SPIKES HIS NEGATIVES
AND AND MAKES HIM UNLIKABLE AND
I LOOK AT 2020 A LOT OF THAT
ELECTION WAS I DON'T WANT TRUMP
TO BE MY PRESIDENT ANYMORE WE
DEFINITELY HEARD THAT COMING
OUT OF GEORGIA PEOPLE SHOWING
UP TO VOTE WHO HADN'T VOTED IN
YEARS ON THE BASIS I'M VOTING
HIM.
SO IS THAT THE DYNAMIC THIS
RACE IS ARE WE SEEING A
GROUNDSWELL THAT'S ANYBODY BUT
TRUMP?
WELL, THERE'S PARTLY THAT.
I MEAN THAT'S WHAT THE KAMALA
HARRIS FOLKS ARE HOPING FOR
SURE.
I DO WANT TO NOT PUSH BACK
NECESSARILY BUT JUST WELL,
LOOK, HERE'S THE DEAL WHEN
TRUMP SAYS SOME OF THOSE
PERSONAL ATTACKS FOR EXAMPLE,
HE SAID OVER THE WEEKEND THAT
HE'S HE'S MUCH BETTER LOOKING
THAN KAMALA HARRIS OR SOMETHING
ALONG THOSE LINES.
WELL, THAT'S A BIT OF HIS RIGHT
IS HIS QUOTE HUMOR WILL SAY
THAT GETS HIM OFF MESSAGE.
BUT YOU GOT TO REMEMBER AS
YOU KNOW WITH WITH TRUMP IT'S
ABOUT NOT JUST BUT THE SHOW AS
WELL.
I MEAN PEOPLE LINE UP FOR DAYS
FOR HIS RALLIES.
HE SPEAKS FOR 2 HOURS.
I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE
SAID HE RAMBLES ON AND ON BUT
HE WANTS TO GIVE PEOPLE A SHOW.
SO IT'S ALWAYS BEEN
INFOTAINMENT FOR TRUMP AND
THAT'S PART OF IT.
SO YOU KNOW, YOU KIND OF YOU
KIND OF TAKE IT ALL TOGETHER
ONCE AGAIN.
I'M NOT QUITE IT'S GOING TO
WORK THIS TIME BECAUSE THIS IS
GOING TO BE A VERY, VERY TIGHT
ELECTION CAN BE NO ROOM FOR
ERROR ON EITHER SIDE.
WELL, IT SEEMS TO BE RAZOR
THIN.
YOU LOOK AT SOME OF THE POLLS,
HARRIS IS CERTAINLY ME HOW
STRONG SHE IS RUNNING.
SO TELL US SOME KEY STATES,
ONE OF THE KEY STATES TO WATCH
IN THE COMING MONTHS.
OF THINGS FIRST OF ALL, KAMALA
HARRIS'S FAVORABILITY IS UP 10%
SINCE SHE ENTERED THE RACE THAT
THAT'S A HUGE JUMP.
LOOK, THERE'S SO MANY WAYS TO
KIND OF DISSECT OF HOW EACH
CANDIDATE GETS TO TO 70.
BUT LET ME JUST KIND OF KEEP IT
SIMPLE.
THERE'S THE RUST BELT STATES
AND THE SUN BELT STATES.
THERE'S FACTORS EITHER WAY AS
TO HOW EACH CANDIDATE CAN WIN
THOSE RUST BELT STATES
OBVIOUSLY PENNSYLVANIA,
MICHIGAN, WISCONSIN WE'VE THAT
AD NAUSEAM AND OF COURSE THE
SUN BELT STATES ARIZONA INTO
GEORGIA, NEVADA AND NORTH
CAROLINA.
ANY ONE OF THOSE TYPE OF
COMBINATIONS COULD POTENTIALLY
WIN IT FOR EITHER ONE.
LOOK, I THINK ULTIMATELY AS I
AS I LOOK AND I GEEK OUT OUT AT
THE MAP, THERE ARE A COUPLE OF
THINGS THAT STICK OUT TO ME.
NUMBER ONE, PENNSYLVANIA I
THINK EITHER ONE OF THOSE
CANDIDATES HAVE GOT TO HAVE
PENNSYLVANIA.
WHY?
IT'S 19 ELECTORAL VOTES AS
OPPOSED TO 15 FOR MICHIGAN, TEN
FOR WISCONSIN.
SO PENNSYLVANIA IS THE BIG
ENCHILADA IN THE RUST BELT AND
AS IT RELATES TO THE SUN BELT.
LOOK, IF THE RUST BELT GOES
SOUTH FOR LET'S SAY TRUMP,
LET'S SAY KAMALA HARRIS WINS
TWO OF THREE OR EVEN THREE OF
THREE, HE'S GOING TO HAVE TO
SWEEP THE SUN BELT AND PROBABLY
TRY TO WIN NEW NEW HAMPSHIRE OR
SOMETHING ELSE BECAUSE I'LL BE
HONEST WITH YOU, GORDON AND
LOOKED AT THIS ALL DIFFERENT
WAYS.
IF KAMALA HARRIS WINS ALL
STATES IN THE RUST BELT AND
DONALD TRUMP SWEEPS THE SUN
BELT IN OTHER WORDS THOSE FOUR
STATES I TALKED ABOUT, HE STILL
COMES UP SHORT.
HE'S GOING NEED TO FIGURE OUT A
WAY HE'D BE A TO 68.
HE NEEDS TO TO FIGURE OUT A WAY
TO FLIP ANOTHER BLUE STATE RED
MAYBE HAMPSHIRE THAT'S FOUR
VOTES.
I DON'T KNOW.
BOTTOM LINE, PENNSYLVANIA IS
THE KEY.
ALL RIGHT, DAVID, THANKS FOR
YOUR INSIGHTS AND YOU'RE GOING
TO HAVE A VERY, VERY BUSY YEAR
FOR SURE.
IN OTHER NEWS, SECRETARY OF
STATE ANTONY BLINKEN A PRIVATE
MEETING WITH BENJAMIN NETANYAHU
THE DAY THE PRIME MINISTER IS
REPORTEDLY NOT OPTIMISTIC ABOUT
A DEAL.
JULIE SAUL HAS A STORY FROM
JERUSALEM.
SECRETARY OF STATE ANTONY
BLINKEN IS BACK IN THE MIDDLE
EAST FOR THE NINTH TIME SINCE
THE START OF THE WAR IN GAZA A
FIRE TALKS WITH HAMAS SEEM TO
BE FALTERING.
THIS IS A DECISIVE MOMENT
PROBABLY THE BEST MAYBE THE
LAST OPPORTUNITY TO GET THE
HOSTAGES HOME TO GET A CEASE
FIRE AND TO PUT EVERYONE ON
BETTER PATH TO ENDURING PEACE
AND SECURITY.
BLINKEN WITH ISRAELI
PRESIDENT ISAAC HERZOG WHO
POINTED OUT ISRAEL FIGHTING ON
MULTIPLE FRONTS INCLUDING
TERRORISM IN THE LAST 24 HOURS.
A 38 YEAR OLD ISRAELI
CIVILIAN SECURITY A FATHER OF
THREE WAS KILLED BY A
PALESTINIAN.
HE WORKED IN JUDEA AND SAMARIA
AND THERE WAS APPARENTLY
ANOTHER PLANNED ATTACK.
LAST NIGHT WE WITNESSED A
SUSPECTED MAJOR TERROR ATTACK
IN TEL AVIV WHICH IS UNDER
INVESTIGATION WITH A POSSIBLE
SUICIDE BOMBER.
AND THIS MORNING SOLDIERS HAVE
BEEN ATTACKED IN THE AIR AND IS
ON THE BORDER WITH LEBANON.
HEZBOLLAH TERRORISTS WITH
DRONES.
HEZBOLLAH CONTINUES TO
LAUNCH NEAR-DAILY AERIAL
ATTACKS ON NORTHERN ISRAEL WITH
SOME 55 ROCKETS FIRED ON
SATURDAY ALONE AND AN IDF DRONE
ATTACK IN THE WEST BANK CITY OF
JENIN KILLED TWO SENIOR HAMAS
OPERATIVES THIS WEEKEND IN.
ANOTHER INCIDENT.
TOP HAMAS OFFICIAL OSAMA HAMDAN
WALKED OUT OF A CNN INTERVIEW
WHEN HE WAS ASKED IF HAMAS
ACCEPTS ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR
ALL THE PALESTINIAN DEATHS IT'S
CAUSED BY USING THEM AS HUMAN
SHIELDS.
AND THE PROBLEMS WITH THE CEASE
FIRE TALKS HAMAS IS BLAMING
NETANYAHU.
WRITING WE PLACE FULL
RESPONSIBILITY ON NETANYAHU FOR
THE FAILURE OF THE MEDIATORS
EFFORTS AND THE FAILURE REACH A
DEAL.
NETANYAHU SAYS ISRAEL IS
CONDUCTING COMPLEX NEGOTIATIONS
WITH A MURDEROUS, UNINHIBITED
AND RECALCITRANT TERRORIST
ORGANIZATION.
I WOULD LIKE TO UP UNTIL NOW
HAMAS HAS BEEN COMPLETELY
OBSTINATE.
IT DID SEND A REPRESENTATIVE TO
THE TALKS IN DOHA.
THEREFORE THE PRESSURE
DIRECTED AT HAMAS AND SINWAR
NOT THE GOVERNMENT OF ISRAEL.
IF THE TALKS TO END THE GAZA
WAR FAIL IT MAY MEAN AND ITS
PROXIES WOULD LAUNCH MAJOR
ATTACKS ON ISRAEL.
THE NEW YORK TIMES REPORTING
THE IRANIAN GOVERNMENT DELAYED
STRIKES ON ISRAEL TO GIVE TIME
FOR THE CEASE FIRE TALKS TO
SUCCEED.
ISRAELI FORCES SAY THEY'RE
READY FOR SUCH ATTACKS.
ISRAEL IS IS NOT IN THE BEST
NEIGHBORHOOD.
WE HAVE BEEN PREPARING FOR AN
ATTACK AND WE ARE READY FOR
ANYTHING WE THERE ARE
DIPLOMATIC ATTEMPTS TO TO
DE-ESCALATE THE SITUATION BUT
WE ARE READY AND ANYTHING ON
ANY FRONT.
ISRAEL BELIEVES HEZBOLLAH
COULD USE FAILED TALKS AS AN
EXCUSE TO LAUNCH ROCKET
BARRAGES AT TEL, THE JEWISH
NATION'S LARGEST CITY.
JULIE STAHL CBN NEWS,
JERUSALEM.
HOPE YOU PAY ATTENTION THAT
INTERVIEW THAT OSAMA HAMDAN DID
ON CNN.
I THE CNN ANCHOR FOR TRYING TO
HOLD HIM AND HOLD HIM TO HIS
OWN EXPERIENCE.
THE ANCHOR WAS QUITE
EXPERIENCED AND QUITE
KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT THE
SITUATION.
BUT WILL OUR STATE DEPARTMENT
WAKE UP TO THE IDEOLOGY THAT
OSAMA HAMDAN WAS CLEARLY
PUTTING OUT CNN THAT NONE OF IT
WAS THEIR FAULT THAT ALL OF
THIS IS THE FAULT OF THE
OCCUPIERS AND NO ACKNOWLEDGMENT
OF THE IDF, ISRAEL WITHDRAWING
FROM GAZA, TURNING IT OVER TO
HAVING FREE ELECTIONS.
ALL OF THAT UNDER THE THE BUSH
ADMINISTRATION.
THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION
BELIEVED IF DEMOCRACY CAME TO
GAZA THEY WOULD ELECT PEACE.
THEY WOULD WANT TO LIVE AT
PEACE WITH ISRAEL.
THEY DIDN'T.
THEY ELECTED HAMAS TO LEAD
THEM.
THEY ELECTED A TERROR GROUP
SPAWNED BY THE MUSLIM IN EGYPT.
AND YOU LOOK AT AND IT'S
ABSOLUTELY HORRIFIC WHAT THEY
WANT TO DO.
YOU LOOK AT THEIR CHARTER AND
WHAT THEY VIEW AS THE ROLE FOR
WOMEN AND IT IS ABSOLUTELY
INCREDIBLE THAT ANYONE ON THE
IN EUROPE OR THE UNITED STATES
WOULD SAY WE'RE BEHIND.
WE WANT TO PROTEST WHAT ISRAEL
IS.
TRUTH HAS BEEN TURNED UPSIDE
DOWN.
I HOPE OUR LEADERSHIP AND I
PRAY OUR LEADERSHIP WAKES UP TO
THIS IDEOLOGY AND SAYS WE WE
CAN'T NEGOTIATE WITH YOU.
THERE'S NO POINT IN IT.
YOU CONTINUE TO SAY ISRAEL IS
COMPLETELY AT FAULT.
ISRAEL NEEDS TO BE WIPED OFF
THE MAP.
EVERY JEW IN ISRAEL NEEDS TO BE
KILLED.
IF THAT IS TRULY WHAT YOU
BELIEVE THEN IT'S TIME FOR YOU
TO END.
THAT'S WHAT I HOPE OUR FOREIGN
POLICY IS GOING TO BE GOING
FORWARD.
STOP THE CHARADE OF WE THINK
DIPLOMACY.
WE HAVEN'T UP ON DIPLOMACY
REALIZE THAT THEY'RE TALKING
THEY REALLY BELIEVE THAT THEY
ARE HOLDING ON TO IT.
AND WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE
HISTORY ANY PALESTINIAN LEADER
THAT COMES TO PEACE WITH ISRAEL
AND ACTUALLY ANY ARAB LEADER.
SO UNLESS SADAT HE CAME TO
PEACE WITH ISRAEL, HE WAS
ASSASSINATED.
THE KING OF JORDAN WHEN HE MADE
PEACE WITH ISRAEL IN 1948 HE
WAS ASSASSINATED ON THE TEMPLE
MOUNT RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIS OWN
SON.
THEY DO IT PUBLICLY.
THEY DO IT REPEATEDLY.
LET'S RECOGNIZE THE IDEOLOGY,
WHAT IT IS.
LET'S STAND AGAINST IT BECAUSE
.
WE BELIEVE IN DEMOCRACY.
WE BELIEVE IN FREEDOM.
WE BELIEVE THAT ISRAEL IS THE
BEST SOURCE OF FREEDOM FOR THE
EAST.
IT'S NOT AN APARTHEID STATE.
MUSLIMS TO SIT IN THE KNESSET.
THERE ARE MINORITY GROUPS THAT
ARE PROTECTED.
LOOK AT THE CHRISTIAN
POPULATION IN ISRAEL IS THE
ONLY PLACE IN THE MIDDLE WHERE
THE CHRISTIAN POPULATION IS
GROWING.
THAT'S A GOVERNMENT WE NEED TO
GET BEHIND AND STAND BEHIND.
SO TODAY PRAY FOR ISRAEL.
HER NEED IS DIRE AND SHE NEEDS

UKRAINIAN

TO BRING THE HOT STAGE OF THE
WAR TO AN END THIS YEAR AND

AND TERRY, ANYBODY EVER DREAMED
IT WOULD STILL BE GOING ON THIS
LONG?
WE CERTAINLY DIDN'T AND WE
HAVE PRAYERS THE SITUATION THAT
IT WILL RESOLVE ITSELF IN THE
CALL NOW OR TEXT PRAY TO 71777.
WE'RE CHRISTIANS IN AMERICA
TO PRAY AND TO PRAY FOR
AMERICA.
WE'RE CALLING ON CHRISTIANS
AROUND THE WORLD TO PRAY FOR
AMERICA BECAUSE IF SOMEHOW OR
OTHER WE FALL AND WE AREN'T
FULFILLING THE COVENANT THAT WE
MADE WITH GOD.
I WANT TO REMIND EVERYONE
LISTENING WE'RE THE ONES THAT
ENTERED COVENANT AND WHETHER
THAT WAS PUTTING A CROSS ON A
BEACH IN VIRGINIA OR THE
MAYFLOWER COMPACT OR ALL THE
PRAYERS OF OUR FOREFATHERS
WE'RE THE ONES WHO MADE THAT
COVENANT WITH HIM THAT WE
WANTED TO BE A CITY ON A HILL.
WE WANTED TO SHOW ENTIRE WORLD
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF.
A NATION FOLLOWED THE PRECEPTS
THAT GOD LAID OUT IN THE BIBLE
THAT WAS OUR COVENANT AND WHEN
WE'RE BREAKING THAT WE'RE GOING
TO SEE A SPECTACULAR FALL AND I
WORRY FOR THE FUTURE I WORRY
FOR THE FUTURE FOR MY CHILDREN
AND FOR MY GRANDCHILDREN AND
THEREFORE I NEED TO PRAY AND
I'M EVERYONE TO PRAY.
WE'RE FACING ELECTION.
THIS ISN'T POLITICAL.
I'M NOT PRAYING FOR ANY
PARTICULAR CANDIDATE IN THIS
ELECTION.
I.
I THINK MOST OF US ARE COMING
TO THE CONCLUSION I'M GOING TO
VOTE FOR THE LEAST WORST
CANDIDATE AND IN THAT
CONCLUSION THAT TELLS YOU THE
STATE OF WHERE WE ARE.
I WANT TO REMIND US OF OUR
HISTORY AND IN OUR CURRENT
CULTURE WE SEEM TO HAVE A
REVISIONIST HISTORY THAT
SOMEHOW OR OTHER WE WEREN'T
FOUNDED BY CHRISTIANS AND THEY
DIDN'T PRAY DIDN'T PRAY OVER
EVERYTHING THAT THEY WERE
DOING.
THEY DIDN'T ASK FOR GOD'S
BLESSING.
THEY DIDN'T MAKE THESE
COVENANTS.
IT'S A REVISIONIST HISTORY
HAPPENING AND I WANT TO REMIND
US OF OUR ROOTS I WANT TO
REMIND US OF THE PRAYERS OF
PRESIDENTS WHO HAVE GONE BEFORE
TODAY WANT TO HIGHLIGHT ABRAHAM
LINCOLN, OBVIOUSLY A HERO IN
AMERICAN HISTORY AND ONE OF THE
GREATEST PRESIDENTS EVER.
BUT IN HIS ELECTION THE
NATION WAS DIVIDED AND HE WENT
AROUND TO THE STATE CAPITALS
ASKING FOR THEIR PRAYERS AND
FOR THEIR SUPPORT SO HE COULD
LEAD THE AND IN SPITE OF ALL OF
THAT WE ENDED UP IN ONE OF THE
BLOODIEST WARS IN THE HISTORY
OF ALL MANKIND.
OUR CIVIL WAR IN THE HEIGHT OF
THAT CIVIL WAR, ABRAHAM SAID WE
NEED TO PRAY.
WE HAVEN'T HUMBLED OURSELVES
BEFORE GOD ALMIGHTY WE'RE IN
DANGER OF LOSING THE REPUBLIC
WE'RE IN DANGER OF LOSING OUR
LIBERTY.
WE'RE IN DANGER AND WE.
WE NEED HIS HELP.
SO TODAY AS WE ARE DANGER OF
LOSING OUR LIBERTY, IN DANGER
OF LOSING LEGACY THAT WE HAVE,
I WANT TO REMIND EVERYONE OF
THE PRAYERS THAT HAVE GONE
BEFORE.
SO HERE IS ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
THIS IS FROM MARCH 30, 1863.
AND WHEREAS IT IS THE DUTY
OF NATIONS AS WELL AS MEN TO
OWN THEIR DEPENDANCE UPON THE
OVERRULING POWER GOD TO CONFESS
THEIR SINS AND TRANSGRESSED IN
HUMBLE SORROW YET WITH HOPE
THAT GENUINE REPENTANCE WILL
LEAD TO MERCY AND PARDON AND TO
RECOGNIZE THE SUBLIME TRUTH
ANNOUNCED IN THE HOLY
SCRIPTURES AND BY ALL HISTORY
THAT THOSE NATIONS ONLY ARE
BLESSED WHOSE GOD IS LORD.
AND THEN HE GOES ON WE HAVE
GROWN NUMBERS WEALTH AND POWER
AS OTHER NATION HAS EVER GROWN
BUT WE HAVE FORGOTTEN GOD.
WE HAVE FORGOTTEN THE GRACIOUS
HAND WHICH PRESERVE AND PEACE
AND MULTIPLIED AND ENRICHED AND
STRENGTHENED US AND WE HAVE
VAINLY IMAGINED IN THE
DECEITFULNESS OF OUR HEARTS
THAT THESE BLESSINGS WERE
PRODUCED BY SOME SUPERIOR
WISDOM AND VIRTUE OF OUR OWN
INTOXICATE WITH UNBROKEN
SUCCESS WE HAVE BECOME TO SELF
SUFFICIENT TO FEEL THE
NECESSITY OF REDEEMING AND
PRESERVING GRACE TOO PROUD TO
PRAY GOD THAT MADE US.
IT BEHOOVES US THAT TO HUMBLE
OURSELVES BEFORE THE OFFENDED
POWER TO CONFESS OUR NATIONAL
SINS AND TO FOR CLEMENCY AND

SLASH ANXIETY HE'S A SIX FOOT
SIX RIGHTY WITH AN UPPER
NINETIES FASTBALL AND A
BLISTERING SLIDER.
LOGAN GILBERT IS ONE OF THE
MOST IMPOSING PLAYERS ON THE
MOUND.
THE TOWERING ACE OF THE SEATTLE
MARINERS HAS PUT TOGETHER
ANOTHER ALL STAR SEASON AND
RECENTLY HE TOLD TOM DEERING
ABOUT HOW HE FINDS CONFIDENCE
BEFORE HE THROWS EVERY PITCH IN
ADDITION TO A BASEBALL MOUND
LOGAN GILBERT KNOWS WHERE HE
STANDS HAVING A REALLY GOOD
SENSE OF YOUR IDENTITY AND
WHERE THAT COMES FROM IS THE
MOST THING FOR ME AND THAT'S
HELPED ME IN THE JOURNEY.
THE SEATTLE MARINERS RIGHT
HANDER IS BASEBALL'S MOST
EFFICIENT PITCHER MINIMIZING AT
BATS PER INNING EVEN EFFICIENT
ENOUGH TO KNOW HIMSELF AND KNOW
THE SOURCE OF HIS DEEP
CONVICTIONS.
TIE YOUR PROFESSION AS A PLAYER
WITH WHO YOU ARE AS A PERSON
AND HOW THE TWO EMERGE TOGETHER
ON THAT EVERY DAY OF YOUR
ROTATION OUT THERE.
IT CAN BE SO COMPETITIVE AND
FIERCE AND THE BIBLE THAT YOU
SEE OLD TESTAMENT PEOPLE GOING
LIKE JOSHUA.
DO NOT FEAR BE STRONG
COURAGEOUS.
I SUFFER REALLY RESONATES WITH
ME WHEN I'M OUT THERE.
THIS SUPERNATURAL PIECE THAT
I WILL FIND YOU AND REALLY
TOUGH SITUATIONS AND ALL YOU
PRAY BEFORE THE GAMES AND THEN
WHEN I GET OUT THERE I'M
COMPLETELY IN THE MOMENT
COMPLETELY COMPETITIVE.
THE TWO COME TOGETHER EVERY
SINGLE TIME TO SEE ETERNAL
CONNECTION WITH GOD.
AT WHAT POINT DO YOU KNOW YOU
HAVE IT?
UH, USUALLY RIGHT BEFORE I
START MY BULLPEN I'LL PRAY OUT
THERE FOR A MINUTE OR TWO.
I DO ALL MY WARM UPS RUNNING
AROUND AND THEN THAT'S WHEN I
TAKE A SECOND TO JUST LIKE TO
BE STILL FOR A COUPLE OF
MOMENTS.
THAT'S I THINK WHEN IT CLICKS
FOR ME.
AND THEN OF COURSE I'LL BE
NERVOUS RIGHT BEFORE THE GAME
AND THEN WHEN I GO OUT THERE
IT'S WHERE I REALLY FEEL MOST
COMFORTABLE.
SO SO LOGAN, YOU'LL KNOW YOU
HAVE IT HERE BEFORE YOU
ACTUALLY THROW A PITCH.
OH, YEAH, DEFINITELY.
WOW.
THAT'S PRETTY COOL.
YEAH IT'S IT'S DEEP TO LIKE AT
A AT A SOUL LEVEL YOU DON'T
NECESSARILY THAT THINGS ARE
GOING TO GO PERFECT BUT YOU
KNOW THAT REGARDLESS OF HOW
THINGS GO THAT YOU'LL BE OKAY
BECAUSE YOU HAVE SOMETHING SO
MUCH GREATER YOU HAVE
SIGNIFICANCE AND SECURITY FROM
GOD THAT IT'S NOT PROVING
YOURSELF IN SOME WAY THAT
PRIMARY PITCH THAT YOU'RE YOUR
GO TO.
WHAT IS THE GRIP?
CAN YOU SHOW ME AND YOUR
RELEASE ON IT?
YEAH THE FOUR SEAM FASTBALL I
HAVE THE HORSESHOE GOING OUT TO
THE LEFT SIDE THERE WITH MY
FINGERS.
THIS IS THE ONE THAT I GET THE
FARTHEST EXTENSION ON.
YOU'RE TRYING TO THROW FAST AS
YOU CAN AND THAT'S WHAT WE GO
TO ALL THE TIME.
USE IT EARLY AND COUNTS FINISH
GALLONS.
TRY TO GET STRIKEOUTS.
DOES IT MAKE IT A PITCH PITCH
ACCOUNT FOR YOU EVERY GAME?
IT'S ALMOST LIKE DRAINING AT
TIMES BECAUSE EVERY SINGLE
PITCH YOU GO THROUGH THE SAME
COMMITMENT MENTAL PROCESS AND
IT HAPPENS EVERY 15 SECONDS OR
WHATEVER.
SO YOU THROW A PITCH, EXECUTE,
LEARN FROM IT AND THEN
COMPLETELY FORGET ABOUT IT IN A
WAY AND GO ON TO THE NEXT
ONE AND YOU DO THAT OVER AND
OVER COMPLETELY COMMITTED TO
YOUR PROCESS.
THE SLIDER SOMETIMES I THROW
THAT MORE THAN ACTUALLY SO I
HAVE KIND OF A WEIRD GRIP HERE
IT'S A SPIKE.
I PUT THE THUMB UP ON THE SIDE
OF THE BALL LIKE THAT.
SHOWED IT TO OTHER GUYS NOT AS
CONVENTIONAL BUT GOES STRAIGHT
DOWN.
I THROW IT AS AS I CAN AND
THAT'S WHAT I REALLY LIKE TO GO
TO WITH TWO STRIKES AND WHEN
YOU SHOW THE OTHER GUYS AND
THEY GIVE YOU THIS GLAZED LOOK
LIKE THAT'S BURST FIRST LIKE
THERE'S NO WAY THAT'S REALLY
HOW YOU THROW IT.
BUT FOR SOME REASON FOR ME
THAT'S WHAT I LANDED ON AND I'M
JUST GO I'M GOING TO KEEP DOING
IT.
HOW DO YOU WALK THAT BALANCE OF
TRYING TO PERFECT AS YOU GO
ALONG IN THE GAME EVERY PITCH
YOU ARE YIELDING AND TO THINGS
THAT YOU CANNOT CONTROL, RIGHT?
IT'S TOUGH.
TRYING TO BE PERFECT WAS HELPED
ME GET HERE SO I.
I HAD TO LEARN HOW TO WALK THAT
LINE AND HOW TO DO IT IN A
HEALTHY, SUSTAINABLE WAY.
I KIND OF GAVE UP TRYING TO BE
PERFECT CONTROLLING RESULTS.
I DON'T REALLY AS MUCH CONTROL
AS I THINK I'M SO GRATEFUL THAT
I CAN SURRENDER THAT TO TO
SOMEBODY THAT IS IN CONTROL AND
THERE'S SO MUCH HOPE IN THAT
ALL-STAR.
WHAT'S THE COMMON DENOMINATOR
FOR EXCELLENCE?
REALLY KNOWING YOURSELF AND
THEN AFTER THAT JUST BEING
YOURSELF GENUINELY AND NOT
TRYING TO BE SOMETHING MORE
THAN YOURSELF ON THE MOUND AS A
PITCHER, AS A PERSON THAT'S FOR
ALL OF US.
FOR EVERYBODY, YEAH.
HOW FREEING IS FOR YOU?
OH YEAH.
I MEAN YOU HIT IT ON THE HEAD
RIGHT THERE IS THE FREEDOM THAT
COMES WITH IT BECAUSE I'VE BEEN
OUT THERE PITCHING GAMES AND I
COULD GO GREAT BUT I ALMOST
FELT LIKE TIGHT LIKE OH NO, AT
ANY SECOND SOMETHING COULD GO
WRONG BUT IF YOU'RE BEING
YOURSELF YOU HAVE THAT FREEDOM
WITH IT.
THAT FREEDOM IS ULTIMATELY WHAT
YOU ARE CALLED TO LIVE IN.
NOW YOU'RE ENJOYING THE MOMENT.
YOU'RE ENJOYING WHAT YOU WERE
MADE TO DO UNCONDITIONAL LOVE
OF A FATHER OUR CREATOR NO.
HOW DOES THAT LOOK TO YOU?
THERE'S JUST SO MUCH ANXIETY
LIKE EVERYBODY EVEN I TIMES
FACE IT WHEN YOU HAVE THAT
UNCONDITIONAL LOVE KNOW THE
SOURCE THAT GIVES THAT TO YOU.
THERE'S JUST SO MUCH PEACE IN
THAT AND NOTHING I COULD DO
COULD CHANGE THAT.
YOU DON'T HAVE THIS MASK ON.
YOU'RE NOT TRYING TO PERFORM
IN A CERTAIN WAY TO HOLD UP A
TROPHY AND SAY LOOK AT ME.
I'M ALREADY KNOWN BY GOD WHO
LOVES ME AND THAT CAN'T BE
TAKEN AWAY.
HAVE YOU FOUND BY TAKING
THAT MASK OFF ABOUT YOURSELF
THAT YOUR SIGHTLINE TO HIM
BECOMES THAT MUCH CLEARER?
THAT'S A GOOD WAY TO PUT IT
FOR SURE.
I THINK I'VE FELT THAT TIMES.
I DON'T THINK I'VE UNDERSTOOD
IT AS WELL AS YOU JUST SAID IT
HONESTLY ONCE YOU SAY THAT IT'S
LIKE HE WANTS TO KNOW THE REAL
YOU, RIGHT?
JUST LIKE WE WANT TO KNOW HIM
AS YOU EXPERIENCE AND GOD KNOWS
US BETTER THAN WE KNOW
OURSELVES.
SO IT'S LIKE WHY WOULD WE
PRETEND TO BE ANYTHING ELSE?
HOW HAS YOUR CHRIST FOLLOWING
IN THIS SPECIFIC FOR YOU?
IT ALLOWED YOU TO BE ABLE TO
WALK THROUGH ALL OF THESE
UNCERTAINTIES.
FOR ME I GET CAUGHT SAME TRAPS
AS EVERYBODY ELSE.
THERE'S ALWAYS SOMETHING BIGGER
AND BETTER AND THEN YOU'RE
COMPARING YOURSELF TO PEOPLE
AROUND YOU AND THEY HAVE A
LITTLE BIT MORE I I MEAN
THERE'S IMPORTANT STUFF HERE,
RIGHT?
BUT IT'S LIKE WHAT IS ONE MORE
WHATEVER IT IS GOING TO RELATE
TO ETERNALLY BEING LOVED BY GOD
WHO MADE ME WHO ALREADY SAYS
YOU'RE HERE ENOUGH.
SO LOGAN IN YOUR GAME.
SCOUTS WERE LOOKING SEARCHING
FOR YOU.
WHAT DO YOU THINK PEOPLE ARE
MOST SEARCHING FOR NOW?
PEOPLE I FEEL LIKE EVERYONE
WHETHER THEY KNOW KNOW IT OR
NOT IS SEARCHING FOR THAT
FULFILLMENT AND LOOKING FORWARD
IN DIFFERENT WAYS UNFORTUNATELY
NOT FINDING IT ANYWHERE ELSE
AND I'VE EXPERIENCED THAT
MYSELF THIS GAME OR A TON OF
OTHER THINGS BUT THE LOVE OF
JESUS BEING KNOWN BY HIM.
KNOWING HIM WHEN YOU KNOW THE
HOLE IN YOUR HEART THAT'S MEANT
FOR JESUS AND ULTIMATELY YOU
FEEL THAT WHEN YOU KNOW HIM
THAT'S THE FULFILLMENT WERE
MADE FOR.
LASER FOCUSED FIRST ON IS
FAITH SECOND ON HIS.
WOW I MEAN WHAT A THING
WE'RE MADE FOR.
I WAS HE'S NOT JUST A PITCHER.
HE'S A PREACHER.
YEAH, BUT I'VE NEVER SEEN TIME
THAT SHORT.
I REMEMBER WHEN LOGAN STOOD UP
.
I MEAN, HE WAS, YOU KNOW,
SIX.
YEAH, THAT'S I LOVED WHEN HE
WAS HIGH FIVING THE OTHER
PLAYERS AND THE OTHER GUYS THAT
TO JUMP UP TO GET TO HIS HIGH
FIVE BUT IF HE'S THROWING THAT
THAT FAST UP OR NINE DAYS FROM
THAT HIGH GOODNESS GRACIOUS
YEAH QUITE A GREAT GUY ON EVERY
LEVEL YES GOT TIME FOR SOME
EMAIL.
LET ME ASK THIS QUESTION.
THIS IS PAMELA WHO SAYS MY
HUSBAND AND I ARE BOTH RETIRED
COLLECTING SOCIAL SECURITY.
ARE WE TO PAY TYPES ON?
PAMELA THE TITHE IS ON THE
INCREASE AND TECHNICALLY SOCIAL
SECURITY IS YOUR MONEY YOU HAVE
MONEY OVER DECADES INTO THE
SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM.
NOW WE ALL KNOW THAT THE SOCIAL
SECURITY TRUST FUND IS SOME IS
ESSENTIALLY AN IOU FROM THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT THAT THAT
MONEY ISN'T SITTING IN SOME
ACCOUNT IT'S ALREADY BEEN SPENT
IN ALL OUR BUDGET DEFICITS AND
THEY'RE OPEN QUESTIONS ABOUT
SOCIAL SECURITY LAST THING AND
ALL OF THIS BUT FROM A TIE
STANDPOINT THAT'S YOUR MONEY
BEING PAID BACK TO YOU NOW YOU
CAN RUN CALCULATIONS AND THE
SOCIAL SECURITY WILL HELP YOU
ON THAT AND YOU CAN FIND OUT
HOW MUCH HAVE YOU PAID INTO THE
SYSTEM AND WHEN THAT IS
RETURNED TO YOU.
YOU CAN THEN SAY OKAY, I'LL
START TITHING ON WHAT COMES
AFTERWARDS BUT THE TITHE IS ON
THE INCREASE AND AND WHILE I AM
A TITHER IN THE NEW TESTAMENT
YOU FIND YOU KNOW YOU YOU
THERE'S NO MORE LAW SO IT'S ALL
ABOUT ARE YOU CHEERFUL ARE YOU
FOLLOWING GOD'S WAY GOD SO LOVE
THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE ALL OF
THESE THINGS ARE PART OF HIS
VERY NATURE SO AS A CHRISTIAN
WE'RE SUPPOSED TO GIVE WE'RE
SUPPOSED TO GIVE CHEERFULLY
SUPPOSED TO GIVE SACRIFICIALLY.
THE TITHE IS JUST SORT
BENCHMARK.
I LIKE TO ADHERE TO IT BECAUSE
IF I'M NOT TITHING THEN I DON'T
FEEL GOOD ABOUT IT.
AND THE APOSTLE PAUL SAYS
WHATEVER IS NOT OF FAITH IS
SAID SO ARE YOU ARE YOU
OBLIGATED TO TITHE ON YOUR
SOCIAL SECURITY?
THE ANSWER IS NO.
BUT IF YOU WANT TO GIVE AND
GIVE CHEERFULLY THEN YEAH GOD'S
BLESSINGS WILL FOLLOW IT.
HERE'S FROM THE SECOND SAMUEL.
GOD'S WAY IS PERFECT.
ALL THE LORD'S PROVED TRUE.
HE IS A SHIELD FOR ALL WHO
