What happened on January 22nd, 1973, for the last 50 years, legal analysts and schools of law have debated how unconstitutional the Roe v. Wade decision was in the first place. People don't realize that that particular court at that time made a decision that was unconstitutional, but because it was highly emotionally charged and there was at the time a certain political party in power, these things happen, you know, for the last 50 years, 64 million children were extracted from the womb of their mothers and murdered. And we need to remember that. The United States Supreme Court, they do not make law. So for people to say we're going to kill justice, Kavanaugh, we're going to kill Clarence Thomas for what? They literally upheld the Constitution of the United States. That is what is being attacked right now. You need to know that. You need to listen as a people, as Christians, we need to divorce ourselves from our emotions and know the fact. John Adams said, facts are stubborn things. Why? Because Ben Shapiro says, facts don't care about your feelings. That's absolutely true. And the Constitution and our founding documents are all about life, the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, and the Constitution. Shape this nation of who we are and who we're supposed to be. And when you see people angry at the justices, how could they do this? Listen, did you hear this? They need to go with the majority of what the people say. Did you know that's why we have a Supreme Court to not do that? Emotions are not to leave the day. The law is to leave the day. And if you don't like the law, you change the law, but you've got to go with the law until it is changed. But we live in a republic and we need to remember that. What happened the other day on Friday had to put a smile in the heart of God. And I'll read a portion of scripture here in a moment to prove it. But you also need to understand something else. The United States Supreme Court did not ban abortion. All of your leftist buddies are freaking out saying they banned abortion. What right do they have? They didn't ban abortion. Do you know what they did? They did what the Constitution would have it be done. They put the jurisdiction back to the States. It's a States decision. It's up to the States. That's the government we live in. If you don't like the government, there's 200 other countries in the world. This is the way it is here. It gives the authority back to the States, which means what? It means it gives the authority back to the local voters. Friday was a win for the Constitution. It was a win for your rights. Everyone's rights. Everyone, including those who are pro-abortionists. The system worked. They may not like the outcome. But the system worked. We need to stop being emotional and stop having an emotionally-based theology. We need to be rooted and grounded in the Bible. We claim to be followers of the Lord Jesus Christ, which means we do what he says. And what the Bible says, and not what we feel about the moment. We're not led like that. We're led by truth. The Bible says in Proverbs 31 verse 8, speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves. Ensure justice for those being crushed. Yes, speak up for the poor and helpless and see that they get justice. That's from the Bible, ladies and gentlemen. And that is absolutely an epic declaration of what God thinks how we ought to defend those who cannot defend themselves. Yes, our heart goes out to a woman who's been raped or in most cases. It's a situation where the boyfriend or the husband is saying, you're going to get an abortion. I'm going to see to it. That's by far the biggest thing. Our heart goes out, but the answer is not abortion. The answer is adoption. The answer is letting people come alongside you like your local church ought to be doing and seeing you through this entire situation and finding a home for that child so that baby ought to live. Let me ask you, why would a child die for the sin of its mother or its father? Let the child live. It's called adoption. There's an answer. Today our nation is really in the way and in some ways I believe our nation could possibly be waking up because this was a monumental shift. But we're really talking about the issue that is always plague the nation of Israel. God said, Israel, you will not do what the other nations of the world will do or are doing and that is you will never cause your children to be sacrificed. You'll never put them through the fire. You'll never put them to the knife. And Israel rejected God and Israel began worshiping the paganism of Moelak and Remthan and all of these ancient Babylonian gods and throughout the land of Israel these grotesque statues were erected in honor of Moelak, this God and their newborn babies were placed in the burning red hot arms of this idol as the child was sacrificed and as an offering. And God says, Israel, you do that and I will abandon you. You do that and I will drive you out from this nation to the ends of the earth. And you stop and you look at history. Did not Israel break up? Was not Israel sent to the ends of the earth? Many of us have Jewish friends. I have many Jewish friends and I love them all. Many will say, we don't believe in God because where was he when this happened and where was he in that Holocaust and where was he in this thing? He was exactly where he said he would be. If you reject him, he said, this is what would happen and today in America, you know what God is announcing to us? America, there's a chance for you to repent, church, there's a chance for you to wake up, pulpits, there's a chance to wake up, pastors, wake up, Greece, wake up. This is serious business. We talk about, it's my body, it's my choice but nobody talks about the baby's body and the baby's choice. Everybody wants to talk about women's rights. What about the female inside the female? Will the church stand for the work that God says in the book of Psalms chapter 139? I am inside the womb of a mother. I'm assembling the baby's parts where nobody can see God says on that work right there. Will every church in America honor God's Word and obey it no matter what the cost? God is saying right now to this nation, wake up, one more chance America, one more chance and I believe as this nation was founded, the answer comes from the pulpit. I'm sorry, I sound a little self-serving but the answer needs to come from the pulpit starting here all across these United States. But a time of separation has started again. This is the second way of separation. Jesus said not everyone who says to me, Lord Lord shall enter the kingdom of heaven but he who does the will of my father which is in heaven. Obey God rather than test in the wind of political correctness. Obey God. Peter put it this way in 1 Peter chapter 4 verse 14, listen to this, if you are reproached for the name of Christ, blessed are you. Imagine that for the spirit of glory and of God rest upon you. On their part he is blasphemed but on your part he is glorified. But let none of you suffer as a murderer or a thief or an evil doer or a busy body which is a fancy old word for a gossip and other people's matters. Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian let him not be ashamed but let him glorify God in this matter. Listen to this for 17, for the time will come for judgment to begin at the house of God and I believe we're there. This is good news ladies and gentlemen, it's not a sad thing. Wouldn't you like to know who's really a believer and who's not? How is that going to happen? It's happening. I'll try to go through this quickly. A couple of quotes. By the way, you're going to see it. Hang on. Hang on. In a moment you're going to see a trend here in a moment. You're going to see a trend. Let me just say this. I'm not a real big fan of the Republican Party either. Okay, so if you think I'm some partisan person, you don't know me. Because if there's a rhino around, I want to expose them and I want statesmen and stateswomen, right? Who care about this nation and care about our government that our founding fathers gave us. Not politics. God gave us government. Man creates politics. So don't think, don't go get offended if you start to see a little bit of a trend here. It's just when you're in power, you got to take the heat. California Democrat Nancy Pelosi says, today the Republican controlled Supreme Court, what? Isn't that supposed to talk like that? The court is neutral, supposed to be. Has achieved the GOP's dark and extreme goal of ripping away women's right to make their own reproductive health decisions? No, they didn't. They handed jurisdiction back to the states. In other words, in California, nothing changes. Seriously, beacuse of Donald Trump, the Republican Party, listen, the Republican Party, and their supermajority on the Supreme Court, you guys, she's not supposed to talk like that. All of these justices were approved by the Senate to be installed in those positions. All of a sudden she's making that a Republican Democrat thing. Do you know what she's doing? She's campaigning. But it's Donald Trump's fault. It's the Republican Party's fault. It's the supermajority Supreme Court's fault. Why? Listen, American women today have less freedom than their mothers. That's not true. That's not true. Next slide. California Democrat Maxine Waters. California Democrat Maxine Waters says, the hell with Supreme Court, we will defy them. I looked that up, by the way. You can Google it later. Did you know that if you're an elected official, you'd sworn oath to uphold the Constitution? Guess what the definition is to that? Subversion, trees, and insurrection. Go look it up on your own later. It was like, wow, I can use this, doesn't it? That's amazing. Maxine Waters said, we will defy them. That's a breach of her sworn oath to office. These are elected officials. Can any good thing come out of California? Next slide. California Democrat Kamala Harris. This is a health care crisis. Listen to this, health care crisis. Understand, millions of women in America will go to bed tonight without access to health care and reproductive care. That's not true. That they had this morning without access to the same health care, reproductive health care, that their mothers and grandmothers had 50 years ago. That's not true. That's not true. Next slide. California Democrat Gavin Newsom. California Democrat Gavin Newsom said, all who seek to have an abortion can come to California. In many cases, the expense for you to come to California for your reproductive health care will be at no cost to you. You want to know what? So let me show you companies that are going to underwrite this. So these companies have vowed to pay for a woman, listen, one thing is sure, this last weekend. The whole debate about gender, you are what you want to say you are. That all went out the window this weekend. City, Yelp, Amazon, Apple, PayPal, Disney, Meta, Microsoft, Match, DoorDash, Netflix, Dick Sporting Goods, Sad, Sad to see Tesla. I don't know what Elon's thinking. Bank of America, Airbnb, Bumble. I don't know what Bumble is. Sounds dumb. Anyway, Starbucks, Levi's, that makes me sick because I'm wearing Levi's right now. I'll keep them on for now, but that's the end of that. Levi's lift, Zillow, Mastercard, Patagonia, JP Morgan, read it. Wow. Wow. Church, I want to encourage you right now. Did you know in this last election last week, very few people voted? Did you know that? The voter turnout was horrific. You need to hear this loud and clear. Don't plan to the hands of those who want to overthrow our country. You want to stop voter fraud? Here's how you do it. Everybody votes. That's how you stop it. You overwhelm voter fraud by voting. You flood the market with your votes. And you vote up, you show up. So listen, this November, you got to show up. You got to show up. Vote your biblical worldview value, but you show up. That's what's happening now. God interrupted the course of this nation. Now you may be new to all this stuff, but God says in the Bible, if you offend the littlest of these children, in the day of judgment, he said, it would have been better for you to either have never been born or to have a millstone tied around your neck and thrown into the bottom of the sea. By the time I get done with you, elected officials and people who vote for them are responsible for the decisions those officials make. This is a republic that is the envy of the world, but we need to act like it. We need to return back to fearing what God says more than what I feel. And we need to obey Him. Can we? Should we? Why? The biblical, historical performance and reality of the Bible, mark it down, can be dependent upon. This is where we segue into what I was going to talk about. Can you trust the Bible? Can you depend upon the Bible? The Bible says of itself, and I underscore that, Isaiah chapter 42, verse 9, behold, the former things have come to pass that means God wrote it down and looked what happened and God has sent that to us in all of life. What's happening right now in the world around us? The Christian right now, this is an epic moment to be alive as a believer. According to scripture, what's going on in this world around us as scary as it can look on the TV? Don't panic. God says, I've known this from the beginning of time. Nothing's falling apart. It's all falling together for my end time scriptures that I've promised to be fulfilled. He says, behold, the former things have come to pass and new things I declare before they spring forth, I tell you of them. That's called Bible prophecy. If you're taking notes, it's called eschatology, the Bible's ability to tell you without error, the future in advance. I feel getting sassy when I say that. It's just something, isn't it? The Bible's ability to tell you about the future in advance. It's called eschatology and there's no other religious book in the universe that can compete. Why? Because there's only one God and he wrote the book. Isaiah chapter 45, verse 21, tell and bring forth your case. I like when God, I like when God flexes. This is God flexing. Tell and bring forth your case. Yes, let them take counsel together. Who has declared this from ancient time? There's a question mark there. Who has told it from that time? Have not I the Lord? And there is no other God besides me, a just God and Savior. There is none besides me. Look at verse 22, look to me and be saved all you ends of the earth. I believe God has given us one more chance. I believe in many ways the church fumbled COVID. May we not fumble something like this that is so obvious, to stand for life, to speak up for those who are destined to be crushed, to make sure that they get justice. Everyone, listen, a culture that is lost and without God becomes ego centric. You know what that means? Well, it's a fancy word for being self-centered. What's in it for me? Where's my peace? What's my cut? A country that fears God, says, how does this affect God? What does the Bible say about this? You say, Jack, this is not a Christian nation. It's not. That's a fact. It's not a Christian nation. Did you know our founding fathers made it sure that it wasn't a Christian nation? It happened to be founded by a bunch of Christians, but they were so smart and secure in their faith that they wrote a constitution that gave the exact same rights to the person who loved God to the same person who hated God.
