Staying True to America's national destiny, the voice of the Awakening. Your host, Bishop E.W. jackson.

Bishop EW Jackson Welcome to another edition of the Awakening podcast here on American Family Radio. I'm your host, Bishop E.W. jackson. As always, so great to be with you. So grateful to God for this network and for the team of people who are responsible for making it run. The Wildmans, family of Brother Don who founded it, all of our technical staff and management staff, and all of the people are doing such great work, to make it possible for me to come on the air and be with you. And of course I want to thank you, thank you for watching and listening to this podcast. Thank you for supporting this network. Thank you for contributing. we are so grateful to God and grateful to you because without you, it would not be possible. Without God, none of us would be possible. None of us would exist. And without you, this great network, and again, the entire constellation of American Family association organizations that are supported by it would not be possible. So God bless you and may heaven smile upon you. And thank you and please continue to give us your support because our country desperately needs you. It needs this network. It needs us working together to save this great constitutional republic. Now, let me say before I get into the subject matter for today, first of all, I want to let you know, I do a television program now called Truth and Liberty. I'm the host two to three times a week. And you can find that on truthandliberty.net that's truthandliberty.net. you can find out where else to watch it because it can be seen on a variety of different out outlets. the Gospel Truth Network, it can be seen there. we're expecting it soon to be coming to God tv if it's not already on. and you can just find it in a variety of places. So please look for Truth and Liberty. And the first place to go is truthandliberty.net and by the way, my co host is none other than also the AFR host, Alex McFarlane. Alex has a co host. He and I are co hosts for this program. We do individual programs and then we work together as well, to do programs together. So Alex, McFarland is also a part of that and we just love to have you check us out because again, we're continuing to carry on the same Principles and ideals that we have established and worked so hard to impact people with here on American Family Radio, which is the truth. The truth, folks. Without truth, there is no liberty. And without liberty, the truth cannot flourish. So God bless you and thank you for checking that out. And, also want to remind you that I'm doing a tour called the Truth Tour. The Truth Tour is something sponsored by my own organization, Stan Staying True to America's National Destiny. And there I'm, talking about facts about American history. You never taught things that help us better understand and appreciate how noble, how inspiring our history is as a nation. There are those who want to make these accusations against America. America's a white supremacist, America's racist, and America stole the land. All, folks, all of that is a bunch of hooey. I mean, it really is. It's just a great big old load of horse manure. Now, look, America hasn't been a perfect nation. I know that. But I put America in context with the world around it. You know, remind people America was settled, this continent was settled 400 years ago, and. And we became an independent nation. 250 years ago. The world was a very different place. And we have to understand the nature of the world in which America was birthed. And then we can better appreciate how America so transcended much of what was in the world at that time. And since, America's been the greatest force for good on Earth, second only to Christianity, and America's been a great force for good because America is a Christian country. The Truth Tour. Get in touch with us at truthtourstandinc.net truthtourtandinc.net or you can call us at 757-375-6444. That's 757-375-6444. Now, let's get into the issue of the day, because, folks, there's only one issue today, and that's the election. Because the next time you hear my voice on this podcast, the election will have been over. At least everybody will have voted. Presumably not if Democrats and Democratic Socialists of America have anything to say about it, because they'll have people voting a month after to get the outcome they want. But that's. That's another matter. the election will officially be over by the time you hear my voice on the next podcast. And I want to underscore to you the importance of this election and come at it a little bit differently than I had before, because, again, you know, I know it can be repetitions, repetitions and maybe it's just not even boring to get the same thing over and over again. But there are many different angles to this that I want you to consider. Now, I preached a sermon on last, Sunday entitled Elections, a Life or Death Choice. Elections. A Life or death choice. Now, just think about that title for a moment, because some people might say, well, now, you know, that's a. That's going a little bit far. You know, that's. That's going just a bit far. I mean, come on, a life or death choice. I mean, it's a choice between two different parties, maybe a choice between different, different ideologies, but life and death. I would argue to you folks that that is not an exaggeration, that is not hyperbole. That that is a statement of truth, a statement of fact. Now, understand something. God told Adam and Eve that if they ate the fruit of the forbidden tree, they would die. You know, and when Adam and Eve ate that fruit, they might have looked around and said, well, we're not dead. that wasn't true. Look, look, we're not dead. We're just fine. But they weren't fine, were they? They were dead. They just didn't know it. And it hadn't manifested physically yet in a way that they could see and fully understand, in a way that they could experience even, shall we say, fully. Well, folks, I think the same is true for America. We can so sow the seeds of death that the country dies before we see the manifestation of that death. And what I am trying to do, what we here at American Family Radio are trying to do, what American Family association is trying to do, what Truth and Liberty is trying to do, what my organization stands, staying true to America's national destiny is trying to do, is to make sure that our nation sows the seeds of life so that we don't look up one day and find America dead, even though we didn't know it, because the death seed had been sown long before. And every time people walk into the voting booth, they are sowing a seed, and that seed is going to bring a harvest. And that seed is either a seed of death or it is a seed of life. And I so desperately want in this election for Christians to rise up en masse across the breadth of this land from sea to shining sea. And vote life. And I'm not talking simply about voting pro life. Yes, of course, vote pro life. But, folks, to be explicit about it, I'm talking about defeating these Democrats. I call them demoncrats, because I've said this Before I'll say it again, the Democrat party has become a demonic cult. And if you vote for Democrats, you are casting a vote for death. Look, not only the deaths of unborn babies. Yes, that too. Because everywhere these Democrats rule, they always want to look for ways to make it easier to kill an unborn baby. But it's not only that. The death of the Constitution, the death of our Judeo Christian values and principles. The death of truth. The only two genders, male and female. Oh, no, no, no. We've got six. We've got 136. I mean, whatever. The death of truth. Because the Democrats have come to believe that there's no such thing as absolute truth. There's your truth and my truth. But we all have our truth, and we have to live out our truth. Hogwash. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth and the life. He didn't say, I am the way a truth, or I am the way my truth, or I am the way truth for some. He said, I am the way, the truth, the truth and a life. And no man comes unto the Father but by me. And the Bible says in the first chapter of Jon, in the beginning was the Word. The word was with God, and the word was God. And that word is Jesus Christ, the word of God incarnate. Now, and I could go on with that. I mean, you could talk about the death of liberty, because you and I know, based on what they did in Covid, based on the attempts by the Biden administration to establish. Remember, they tried to establish this censorship board that would determine what kind of speech was acceptable. That sounds like the politburo. That sounds like a communist country. We don't do that here. But they were trying to do it. Remember, you shall not go to church. Will determine what's essential. And the church is not. Even though you got First Amendment liberty, We'll ignore that. Oh, the bars can remain open and the abortion clinics have remained open, but not the churches. Remember that? Remember being locked down in your home and told, don't go out. Locked out of our schools. ended up being a blessing in disguise because we found out some of the garbage they were teaching in schools once they started having to put it online and parents could see what it was. But that aside, you have to wear a mask. You can't get within six feet of somebody. You can't be within 10ft of somebody in a building. I mean, you can't take ivermectin. You can't take hydroxychloroquine. m. All of it based on lies. If you take this shot, you will not get Covid a lie. It wasn't meant to save anybody. None of that was meant to save anybody. It was all meant to control people because that's their impulse. What they crave, what they want is power above all. People are simply pawns in that game. They don't care about people. Well, Satan, who is that? That's. I mean, folks, who is that? That's Satan. That's Satan. That's who he is. M. He is the God, small g of death. Bible calls him the God of this world. And any vote for a Democrat is a vote for Satan. It's a vote for death. And I don't think that's an exaggeration at all based upon the things I've just laid out for you. A vote for a Democrat is a vote to have little children operated on. Have little boys told that you were born in the wrong body. Have little girls told you were born in the wrong body. I just saw some stories about it in the last day or so about the horrors of these surgical mutilations. I call them Frankenstein ish because they are of kids. And by the way, folks, here's what lets you know how perverse this is when the child wants to have the operation. Oh, you're. You're such an enlightened boy. Girl. Oh, how could the parents not bow to your will? You. You are so wise. Oh, yes. We must go along with everything you want. Oh, yes, absolutely. Because the level of wisdom you've shown is just beyond our full comprehension. But we will bow to it. But if the child later on says, I made a mistake, if that girl who realizes she really is a woman that she's delivered from that delusion says, I want to have children. I can't nurse my babies. I made a mistake. Then all of a sudden, that child that used to be wise becomes a fool, becomes a Persona non grata. They don't only ignore that person. They hate that person. They disdain that person. They vilify that person. The whole, effort, for example, to reclaim one's natural biological gender. Detransitioning, as the phrase I'm looking for. Detransitioning is vilified. These are bad people. The mainstream media doesn't talk to them. They don't want to hear from them. So the kid who was so wise and the boy was so wise he chose to have his genitalia cut off. How wise he was. When the kid says, I made a terrible mistake, that kid now suddenly become a Fool. That girl suddenly has become a fool. Same kids that they exalted to the highest because of their, their great insight on their own gender identity. Now, now they're, they're, they're horrible people. Do you see what I mean? Yeah. All this stuff that I'm sharing with you, it's all on the ballot, folks, because demon crats have put it on the ballot because it's what they want. Now, Whether there will be, a, ah, wholesale tinkering with the Supreme Court, adding more justices or adding, term limits or whatever. Look, I am in favor of term limits for elected officials. But I'll tell you something. I like the fact that a judge is completely and totally independent of politics. I like that. I want it to be that way. I don't want judges making decisions because they favor conservatives. I really don't. I don't. It's a erosion of our judicial system. Likewise, I don't want them making judgments because they don't like Donald Trump or making judgments because they don't like, don't like Republicans or don't like conservatives. None of that should play into it. They should be calling balls and strikes. They should be calling them based on the Constitution. I love it. Justice Alito wrote that if a judge never comes to a conclusion that he or she doesn't personally like, then they're probably not doing their job. And the reason what he's saying is because the law may not necessarily reflect what I like, but my job as judge is not to try to figure out how to impose what I like on everybody. It is to implement the law. But you got a party that's completely lawless. They don't respect judges unless the judges are. Unless the judges are deciding the way they want them to decide. Folks, the very checks and balances that help keep us free are the very things the demon crats want to do away with. And you know, the father of the Constitution, James Madison, said enlightened statesmen may not always be at the helm. And you know what he was saying? Tyranny is always lurking. It's always lurking. And what comes with tyranny? Death. Because the true tyrant can't tolerate anybody threatening his or her power. And so if you are a threat to their power, you must be dealt with. Again, folks, these Islamists, Hasan Piker, he's not running for office, but he's certainly backing some of these reprobates, these Islamist reprobates like El Sayed, like Ilhan Omar. If you allow these people to take power in our country, which is what they desperately want. They desperately want it. Just understand something. I believe that these people, they're ilk, I don't know them personally, but I believe that they're ilk would gladly starve, kill, commit to a labor camp, torture anybody who got in the way of their agenda. Now, how can I say that? Because that's what historically has proved to be the case. This is what they do. The Bolsheviks, the Chinese, Communists, the Vietnamese, Cuba. They didn't say, hey, folks, we're going to usher in a great system now. We have to kill a lot of people, have to, torture a lot of people, going to commit to labor camps a lot of people. we're going to suppress the human rights of a lot of people. But that's okay because it's all going to work out in the end and you have a beautiful utopia, so just ignore the bloodshed. They don't say that because they know nobody ever vote for that. They know that everybody, nobody would ever support that. Well, you probably get a few cult types who would, but they know overwhelmingly people say, whoa, no, no, no, no, no, I don't want that. So they come in with, we're going to give you things, we're going to give you a house, we're going to give you a car, we're going to give you food stamps, we're going to give you health insurance, we're going to give you money that you didn't even earn through grants. As in Minneapolis right now in California, we'll let you steal the treasury blind. And, do whatever you want to do. You commit a crime, we'll get you out. Just remember what side your bread is buttered on. And just remember to keep us in office, keep us in power. And we don't care what you do, and we don't care who you do it to. I mean, again, I said, why in the world would you let an illegal alien, a violent, convicted illegal alien, why would you release him on the streets to America? Because you hate Americans? Because you figure he'll kill somebody, he'll hurt somebody, he'll rape some woman, and they deserve it. Good, they got their comeuppance. Say again? Well, you may be going too far. Well, why don't they ever show any sympathy or empathy for anybody who's been killed by an illegal alien? Why? Why? Zip zero. Because those people are part of their pathway to power. The people who are doing the killing part of their pathway to power, they're never going to criticize them. And they're never going to show any empathy with their victims because if I do that, that empowers the other side. It's all about power. It's not about people helping people, showing compassion toward people, feeding people, clothing people. It's never about helping people. It's about helping themselves to a great big old gob of power that they devour like it's their last meal on earth. And folks, it's going to take us showing up at the ballot box to put a stop to all this. And if we don't, we're going to lose our country. It's just that plain and simple. Either Christians awaken, get involved in the political process, Vote our Christian values. Now I'm not talking about a bunch of half baked looney Tunes like, like Talarico Prebe Herman talking about I'm a Christian. Oh, please. If he's a Christian, my big toe is a Christian. And my big toe is probably more of a Christian than he is because it's on me. I mean, give me a break. He's a Christian Christian. The church is not even a Christian church. It's a made up abomination because the pastor said, well, we don't really know if Jesus existed. Well, if he had touched you, dummy, you would know. If you had a relationship with him, you would know. I tell you, this stuff is just, it's exasperating that people buy it. But we've got again, you vote for Democrats, you're voting for government, schools, colleges, universities, to continue to be institutions of, brainwashing rather than institutions of higher learning. Because that's all they're doing now. They were just brainwashing kids. They're not teaching anybody anything. Teaching you how to hate your country, teaching you how important it is to kill unborn babies because it's a mother's reproductive freedom. Well, that's not reproducing though. That's not reproducing. So won't they call it not reproducing freedom? Want they call it what it really is, unborn baby killing. But of course they don't want to be truthful about what their agenda is. Because if they're truthful about it, you might notice it and you might have moral and spiritual objections to it. Can't have that. We can't have your biblical morality getting in our way now, can we? I mean, because we want to do what we want to do and we want everybody to keep us in power so we can keep doing it. Ah. And the best way to do that is to point your finger at the conservatives, the Republicans, the Christians, say they're racist, they're against social justice, they're bad people. You gotta vote for us, Bishop Jackson. Aren't you doing the same thing? Well, you could. I guess, technically you could say that. But there is one major difference. Telling the truth. I'm telling the truth. It's just that plain and simple, the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help me God. Jesus said, you should know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. And that's what I'm committed to giving people, whether they like it or not. The Bible says, speak the truth in love. And you can do that. We certainly should. I'm always speaking out of love. It's out of that motivation of love. It's not out of hatred for anybody. Because I'm telling their truth. Because I want them to be saved. I want them to know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, speaking the truth in love. But, you know, I said you can take the truth, you can put ice cream on it. You can sprinkle some of those chocolate sprinkles on it. You can put whipped cream on it. You could put a cherry on top of it. I'm making you hungry. You could do all that and say, here it is. Here's the truth. And they'll slap it out of your hand and curse you out. Because it doesn't matter how sweetly is packaged, it doesn't matter how sweet it is when spoken. What they care about is they don't want anybody to receive it, hear it, accept it. That's what. That's what it's all about. They want to censor you. I think I share with you all the problems we're having with Google. 65% of our emails blocked by Google and Gmail for reasons unknown because they're opaque and you can't get to them. So you just stuck. And now we're. And we're. We're told that we give them 230 section 230 protection because they're neutral platforms. Yeah, they're neutral platforms. All right? So we have got to get out and vote. There's no question about it. So please, tell a neighbor, tell a friend, tell someone who you think is of like mind, please go out and vote, and please vote your Christian conscience. Now, there are local elections going on, too. There's a local election here in Virginia. look, I take this approach. I try to learn what I can about the candidates and make a prudential choice about the candidates. If I Don't know anything about the candidates. And that happens sometimes because I'm busy and if there's some local elections, I don't know who's running for school board, I don't know. sometimes I'll consult my Republican colleagues or conservative colleagues and say, do you know anything about these people? And get information that way or look it up myself. But if I don't have any chance to do that, and there's been times when I don't, and I'm going in and voting primarily for the presidential or congressional U.S. senate, I don't vote in their election for any one of them at all. If the demon crat is as bad as the Republican now, that's a rarity. But if that were the case, I'm not voting either one. I'll write in Jesus, I'll write in my own name. I'm not doing it. Too much is at stake. I can't compromise. And I know there are people who say, yeah, but the thing is you may be giving over to a greater evil, but you know what? That's ultimately God's affair. That's God's business. Who ultimately, what ultimately prevails if I start compromising my integrity in order to support any Republican, I'm no better than what I criticize so called Christian Democrats for. Because they would say, oh well, I don't agree with this. I don't agree with. But they're going to do this. It's social justice. It's about so in other words, compromise your integrity because the goodies you're going to get back make it all worth it. So don't even give that a second thought. Well, I'm giving it a second thought, a third thought, a fifth thought, 20th thought. Right now it's much of what I'm thinking about because I don't want this election to go wrong if this election goes wrong. And by the way, I can't think of a single race in which there's a Republican who nobody should vote for. I can't think of a single race in this midterm election. I'm just letting you know where I stand in terms of guarding my integrity, that I'm just not going to vote for any old Republican because he's a Republican. But I'm telling you, for this election the choice is between life and death and we need to vote life. You know, Deuteronomy 30, 19, which people normally apply. Well, you know what, to tell you the truth, I'm not even sure what they applied to apply this to. But I do know that, m. It has broader application than simply abortion. I'll put it that way. It has broader application than simply abortion. Here's what God says to the children of Israel. I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing. Therefore choose life that both you and your descendants may live. I couldn't get more plain than that. It says that you may love the Lord your God, that you may obey his voice, and that you may cling to him, for he is your life. He is your life, your life and the strength of and the length of your days. And that you may dwell in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob to give them. Look, let's choose life, life, life and again, life. And whatever these demoncrats are selling, let's just send a signal to the world that America is not choosing deaths, death under any circumstances whatsoever. Again, you see what's happening in France right now? What is that? That's the seeds of death coming home to roost. I mean, for example, I've said America has a right to secure its borders and to determine who comes, when they come, how they come and so forth. But oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. The Democrats want open borders. Why not? Because they care about the people trying to come, coming from difficult circumstances, in Central and South America. It is because they know that this again is another way to get and keep power. That's all there is to it. That's why they don't care how many girls were trafficked and how much fentanyl was brought in and how many drug dealers came in, how many Chinese nationals came in. Our arch. The Communist Chinese party is our arch enemy today. Don't let anybody kid you. Oh, they are competitor. Oh, please. I mean, you know, I forget which justice said it. He wasn't a very good one by the way, because he said some other things. But he did say, I don't think this was black men. But he did say the Constitution is not a suicide pact. I might not agree with him about much else, but I certainly agree with him on that. The Constitution is not a suicide pact. It is not responsible for us to. Well, we don't want to get too involved and we don't want to upset anybody. We don't want to offend anybody. And ah, we don't want to be too harsh about this. We don't. Until the nation has forgotten God and turned into hell and is taking untold Millions of numbers of people, millions of people with them. You and I are the ones who are standing in the gap. You and I are the ones who are the bulwark against this evil. Because, look, the Bible says righteousness exalts the nation. Sinners reproach any people who knows what righteousness is, except the body of Christ. Because we know that righteousness is defined as God's standard of doing things and doing them right. Right according to who? According to God. If righteousness exalts a nation, sin is a reproach to any people. Why in the world would you ever vote for somebody who is give me again, not profanely, but spiritually accurate, who is hell bound on destruction? Why? Why would you vote for anybody? It was like that. Now, folks, we have got to make up our minds that we want to break history and say, make history. We're going to break history. That there is going to be such an unprecedented show of power by the Christian community in America that the whole world is going to look in awe and say, wow, what is going on over there? Or up there? What is going on? And Christians turn out in droves. Never see anything like it. That's what I want us to be able to say after the upcoming elections. Because if we will do that, we will retain control of the House and the Senate and put in the hands of President Trump the tools he needs to finish the job God has given him to do. It is just that plain and simple, folks. It is just that plain and simple. I hope you've got a plan to get out and vote. Some of you have undoubtedly voted already. I hope you got a plan to get out the vote, or a plan, if you've already voted already, and whether you have or haven't a plan to get the people to the polls that you want to be able to vote, because you know that they're going to vote in accordance with biblical principle. But maybe they don't have the conviction. Maybe they're not watching the news, I don't know. But maybe you, as a friend, can say, hey, Debbie, voted. No, I don't know whether I'm going to vote. Well, no, no, wait a minute. You gotta vote. You gotta vote. You know what's at stake in this election. And then if you need to let them listen to this or watch this if you need to, but don't let them go out and make a fool of themselves and blaspheme God by, voting Democrat, that would be a, an enormous, gargantuan mistake. And the fate of this nation could be the ultimate consequence of such a mistake. Well, look, folks, that's going to do it. I had to hit this issue and hit it hard because this is the last time I'm going to talk talk to you or you will see me before the election. The next time you hear from me, the election will be over. I could not in good conscience waste this opportunity. I had to make the most of it. So forgive me, I've been on this one issue but folks, I hope that it underscores for you the importance of of this upcoming election. I think I told you all the polls are against us but God is for us. So listen, God bless each and every one of you. You know what to do in addition to voting. In addition to voting in addition to voting. Stand up, step up, speak up and refuse to back because we cannot be defeated if we will not quit because we are on God's side. God bless everybody.
