Bishop E.W. jackson speaks on Southern Poverty Law Center controversy

Bishop EW Jackson: Welcome, everybody, to another edition of the Awakening podcast here on American Fabric Radio. It's my pleasure to be with you again today. God bless each and every one of you for your support for American Family Radio and the entire constellation of American, family association groups and organizations, including my own Stan, which. Which is happily supported by American Family Association. They sponsor our dinner every year. And, and I am thankful to God for that association and thankful to God for the ministry of American Family Association, American Family Radio. as a matter of fact, I want to talk to you about that today because, earlier this week, and it may still be going on, they began starting up again. Actually, I think they had already done this, but this might be. Might have been a continuation. Anyway, they're holding hearings on the Southern Poverty Law Centers, apparent financing of racist groups like the Ku Klux Klan and Nazis and skinheads and all of that. the Southern Poverty Law center is claiming that all they were doing was paying infiltrators, but it's quite clear that they went well beyond that because the Number's up over $4 million spent promoting or strengthening, if you will, these organizations and what they were doing, while at the same time claiming to be pointing out, any and every person, including us here at American Family Association, American Family Radio, and yours truly, E.W. jackson, as hate persons and hate organizations. and thank God they're finally being held accountable and they're being indicted for having committed fraud against their own donors. Now we'll see where all this goes. The jury will have to decide whether the facts are there to convict these people. But I'll tell you one thing. They can certainly be convicted in the court of moral opinion because they're despicable. The fact that the Southern Poverty Law center labeled the Family Research Council, American Family association, and many of us as hate groups and people of hatred and put targets on our backs. Really, folks, I haven't talked about this before. You know, about, of course, the Family Research Council guy walks up and mainly inspired by what the Southern Poverty Law center said, goes into the building. And I used to be a senior fellow for a Family Research, council, and I was in that building on many, many, many occasions. I was probably in that building a couple times a week. staff Meetings and other things that I would be going to. Guy, walks in with a bunch of Chick fil A, burgers, or whatever he had. It was a ruse to try to get people to let their guard down, figuring, well, I'm from Chick fil A. I mean, you know, I must be one of you. But he actually bought a gun and intended to get into the offices and kill as many people as he could. He ended up shooting the security guard. I met the guy, by the way, who. Who bravely met this man in the lobby and stopped him from going up and committing slaughter. He was inspired by the Southern Poverty Law Center. Now, this I haven't talked about, but, of course, I get a lot of nasty communications, and expressions. usually not to my face, of course. Occasionally they happen that way, when somebody can get close enough to me to do that, which is not easy, but it has happened. But I also got a very serious threat, death threat, that was, investigated by the FBI, by Biden's FBI, by the way. And so nothing was ever done to the guy who issued the threat, who called my office and said that it was inevitable I needed to be shot. He said, it looks like that's what's going to have to happen. this guy turned out was a homosexual activist from Georgia, by the way, who, issued the threat and was never prosecuted for it. And he should have been. But of course, Biden, if it had been a. A conservative threatening some liberal, they'd, throw in the book at him. But, of course, you know, a little old me. what difference does it make? Me? Who knows? Who knows? Maybe he'll even follow through and get it done. That's why I travel with security now, folks. I don't do it. potatoes. I don't like it. But I do it because my family and the Lord really spoke to me and said, you know, you have to take proper precautions. I had a situation happen one time. I was at an event. I won't tell you what event it was, but I'll tell you what. You would never have expected it. I was at an event, and, I came out after speaking. I came out. I was being escorted, of course, and a woman, oh, I say 10ft ahead of me, maybe. Maybe 15 turns, smile real big. Oh, Bishop Jackson. Oh. You know, and. And basically turned toward me, and, you know, just reached out her hand, to shake my hand. And of course, you know, I'm. I'm by nature a friendly person. Okay? You got to really work hard to make Me unfriendly. But I reached out and shook her head. As soon as she got my hand, she tightened her grip and snarled at me and said, who do you think you are? And, I mean, it was. She flipped on a dime. She used that friendliness as a ruse to get close to me. And then, of course, they, immediately realizing what she had done, separated from her and whisked me off. I went to another event one time, and I was reassured by the people, oh, don't. You don't have to. You don't even need security. They told you this is. Nobody is going to. And turned out at my table, I wasn't there at the time. Some guy walks up and says to my, assistant, who is there? where's Bishop Jackson? He said, well, he's not here. Is he coming? we don't know. And, he said, well, are you his son? speaking to my senior travel assistant who comes. Who's with me almost all the time. Some of you probably met him. And he said, well, I'm a spiritual son. And the guy just absolutely starts to go berserk. Yeah, you know, you tell him. Yeah. And I. I happened not to be there.

The Southern Poverty Law center has pushed this stuff. Now we find out they are paying for hate groups

This place where I was reassured, oh, you know, you. Oh, that you're not having a problem here. Well, see, this stuff is spurred by a group like the Southern Poverty Law center running around telling people he's a hater, he's a bigot, he hates gay people, telling people that you're a bad person. Something needs to be done about you. And of course, we know the person who is the top target in the world right now is Donald Trump. But all of us who are on the front lines speaking up about these issues, all of us are, frankly, targets. We're just a little bit smaller targets. Sometimes people think, well, maybe I get a, smaller target now. Maybe I can graduate to a bigger one later. I mean, the Southern Poverty Law center has pushed this stuff. Now we find out that they are paying the very organizations that deserve to be labeled as hate now. But they don't see notice. They don't come into these Christian organizations because they're lying through their teeth. They hate what we represent, and they hate us. They're the haters. And so they label us, hoping, frankly, to put us in danger and hoping that somehow we will be either reputationally hurt or hurt financially or maybe even hurt physically. I'm glad they're finally being held accountable. But let me say something else, and I want to walk you through a little bit of history so this program is going to be a little different than. By the way, you all know, I'm doing a truth tour, and this is very much on my mind. The degree to which the American people have been lied to and told things about our history which are simply, categorically untrue. and the truth Tour, in fact, my engagements have already started. I've gotten two engagements coming. One in South Carolina, one in North Carolina, one coming up in Colorado, one coming up in Mississippi, one coming up in Oklahoma. so I'm happy to come to your church, your community, and share this with you. It's going to be American History from a Biblical point of View. But the title of this series is the Truth Untold Facts About American History. Things that We Haven't Been Told. Because, you see, people have used history as a polemic against our country to get our young people particularly. But anybody else they could persuade to actually hate America, to delegitimize America, to marginalize America, to make people think that America's not worth defending. America needs fundamental transformation. Or as Bernie Sanders and Graham Platner and, Who was the other idiot on stage with them? well, whoever they were, it might have been, was it aoc? But, you know, it's calling for a revolution. We need a revolution in America. Well, the way you get people to believe that is you persuade them that we are rotten from the core, from the very beginning. We are rotten as a country, and you can't correct us. We've got to be fundamentally transformed. America as we know it's got to be done away with, and you got to replace it with something else, their version of democracy. Because for them, they were not a constitutional republic. Because they don't like the Constitution either, because they don't like limitations on government. They want to be able to do whatever they want to do. here's the first point I want to make. this Congressman Raskin. Congressman. Yeah, Congressman Raskin from Maryland gave this long opening speech. I guess he's the minority, senior minority. The, ranking minority leader, I guess. Yeah, the ranking minority, leader. on this, I think it's the Judiciary Committee that's having the hearings, but he gives this long speech about all the great work that the SPLC has done and how the SPLC fought the Ku Klux Klan, and the SPLC did this and the SPLC did that. You know, this is a problem. And this is what the first point I want to make is. You know, folks, I respect the fact that there are People in the past who made tremendous sacrifice to fight what was truly evil. I respect that. I really do. I respect Dr. King. I respect some of the civil rights leaders who were dealing with just rank segregation and dehumanization of black people, with people who just irrational, demonic hatred of people because of the color of their skin. By m the way, a third of, during the whole lynching era, a third of the people lynched were white who was simply trying to stand up against the forces of evil. I respect that. I have the utmost respect for it. And, I have respect for all the people, who did what they could to try to bring righteousness to the fore. That you simply don't treat other human beings this way. In England it was Wilberforce, here in America it was the abolitionists. And then later, Dr. King, and there were people like Booker T. Washington and George Washington Carver and, a number of others that I could name. And I respect them. I really do. I really do. Here's the problem. As they become effective in awakening the American people to the injustice of treating people differently because of the color of their skin, marginalizing them, dehumanizing them, depriving them of fundamental human dignity and rights. As the American people awaken to that and the problem begins to recede and to recede and to recede and to recede until you get to a point where we are today that, you know, folks, I dare say 90% plus of the American people could care less what the color of your skin is. Unless they're imbued with a bunch of leftists where they feel they have to somehow bow and scrape and apologize and bend over backwards and treat black people like they're handicapped or, or, dark skinned people like this something, you know, they need special help. Unless they're imbued with all that nonsense. They just want to treat everybody like human beings. They want to treat people the way they want to be treated, which is the golden rule which Jesus told us. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. See, I really think racism as a significant phenomenon in America is over. Now I know there are people who are doing it. Cut my head off for saying that. But I just believe that it's over. Are there racists out there? Sure there are. By the way, of all skin colors. Are there people out there who are just imbued with this irrational, wicked, evil deal about race? Of course there are. But folks, that's because of the human condition. It's because people are always looking for a reason. A Justification to subjugate other people and race just happens to be one of the excuses they, that appeals to them. It could be something else. It could be their ancestral background, it could be their religion. It could. I mean, you name it, they'll pick something. You've heard me say, if God were to wave his hand over the whole earth and made everybody exactly the same complexion, and gave everybody exactly the same texture, hair, and he left one different, some green eyes, some blue eyes, some hazel eyes, some brown eyes, it wouldn't be long before you'd have the four warring tribes at each other, the green eyed people saying, you know what, I tell you what, those brown eyed people, they think they're superior to us and they want to, oppress us, they want to hold us down. We're going to teach them a lesson.

Colorism is the phenomenon of ascribing different qualities to people based on skin

Look, folks, I don't know whether you've ever heard of this phenomenon, and this is a real phenomenon. And this happened all over the world, just as slavery happened all over the world. It's called colorism. You ever heard of it? Colorism. Look it up. Colorism is the phenomenon that's happened throughout the world of people ascribing different qualities to people based upon their complexions. And by the way, this doesn't go to black and white or African and European. This happened within every culture. In other words, within a society. Say in Europe, you had northern Europeans who were more fair skinned, southern Europeans who had darker, swarthier skin. And the fair Europeans thought they were superior to the darker Europeans. It's called colorism. And it goes all the way back. They saw it all the way back in ancient Egypt where darker skinned Egyptians were seen as inferior and lighter skinned Egyptians were seen as superior. Now, they weren't Europeans, but they were still practicing something called colorism because somehow they associated in their minds. Well, dark is darkness is blindness. Darkness represents evil. Darkness represents what's bad. So the darker you are, the more they would describe to you these qualities that are, are attributable to darkness. And the lighter you are, the more they ascribe to you qualities of lightness. Now, this is just pagan nonsense. That's all it is. It's just pagan nonsense. But it has plagued humanity from time immemorial. Now we are in 2026. And America, more in my view, than any other nation on earth, has transcended colorism, racism, all of it. But here's the problem, folks. When you have an industry grow up and take root that allows you to make money, to get notoriety, to get in positions to get jobs, to get elected to office based upon the exploitation of and the mining of this concern that people have about race. Once you have an industry that does that, but the race ism, and colorism, that had been addressed is no longer there. You gotta manufacture something to keep the industry going. That's what we're dealing with with splc. And so while I respect people who really dealt with true, historic, major problems that were real and graphic and tangible, I have no respect for these race hustlers and pimps who are trying to somehow convince us, as I've heard people say even recently, things haven't changed since, since 1865. I mean, yeah, I mean, people say dumb stuff like that, but they don't say it because it's true or because I, because I don't think they say it even because they're stupid enough to believe it's true. I think they say it because they want to convince others that it's true so that they can continue to exploit the issue. You all follow me and M, that's what we're dealing with. If you had nobody in this country who was interested in promoting race as a way of advancing themselves, promoting themselves, making money. I mean, Al Sharpton, they say Al Sharpton got a budget like 5, 6 million dollars a year addressing the problem of racism. No, what he's really addressing is the problem of Al Sharpton wanting to fly in private planes and drive in the best cars and wear tailor made clothes and you know, and get on TV as often as possible. That's what they're really addressing. And so the Southern Poverty Law center realizing, man, we, the Ku Klux Klan has been marginalized. Nobody wants to be bothered with that. Skinheads are a bunch of crazies. Nobody wants to be bothered with that. Nazis, I mean, nobody wants to be bothered with that. We got to somehow remind people that these are real problems. Oh, here's how we do it. Let's give them some money to help them become a real problem. I mean, we find out that this big event we had in my home state down in, Charlotte, you know, the one where they said Trump said that, you know, there are good people on both sides. And I understood perfectly what the man was saying. You know, everybody else tries to say he's the Ku Klux Klan on one side is good. I mean, he wasn't saying that at all. He was saying they're good people who are standing up against defacing Confederate statues. By the way, I'm one of those people Because I believe history ought to be an opportunity for us to learn, not something that we censor. Let's talk about that statue. Why is it there? I'll tell you something about that history that most people don't even know and haven't even thought of. Well, let me try to get back to that. But come to find out, the SPLC financed some of those hate groups, true hate groups, to go to that thing and start trouble so that they could say, you see, we, the splc, are here to save you from these terrible racists that we are financing. By the way, don't tell anybody, now send us money. You know, These people have $800 million in assets. And folks, here I am bringing people together across racial and cultural lines saying, it's not the skin, it's the sin. And we as Americans cannot be divided against each other on any basis. Ideally, certainly not on that stupid and superficial basis. Because Jesus said, a kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation. I tell you what, though. I don't have $800 million in assets in my organization. Not yet. I'm believing God, we'll get there, but not yet. Because I'm not exploiting anything. I'm trying to help save our country. I'm trying to help do what is right in the sight of God. I'm trying to help bring America back to our fundamental values. And here you got these people who are trying to rip us apart. But I'll tell you what, boy, they're doing it in luxury now. That's what's really going on here. And they need to be held accountable. That's why I have no respect for these so called civil rights leaders and the Congressional Black Caucus. I, I just don't. I mean, I love them as human beings with the love of Jesus Christ because they need to be saved. But I have no respect for them or what they do. I mean, the stupid things that they say and that they promote, that they try to get people to buy into. As to this whole Carmelo Anthony trial, by the time you hear this, the trial may be over. I say I hope this thing doesn't lead to riots because Carmelo Anthony, based on my understanding of the facts as a retired attorney, someone who's practiced law and been in the courtroom defending criminal cases, in my view, Carmelo Anthony should go to jail because it's just black letter self defense law. You can't stab somebody and kill them because they put your hand on your, they put their hand on your back to try to move you out of space they claimed you didn't belong in. Even if they were wrong, you can't kill them for it. But you see, the race hustlers will say, oh, oh, Carmel Anthony. Oh, see, folks, it just proves we told you America's racist. We told you. We told you there's no justice for the black man in America. Look, they're going to lock Carmelo Anthony up. And he was just defending himself against this white man who was trying to. Once again, I mean, that's the nonsense that you're going to hear in some circles. There's no doubt about it. Now, whether it ultimately leads to riots and.

Slavery was not unique to America. It was a worldwide phenomenon

And mayhem, I hope not. I hope people will have better sense than that. But it wouldn't surprise me if it happened, because that's what race hustlers do. They don't have a real problem, so they got to create something. Now, all of that, believe it or not, was a prelude to something I want to say historically. I said, I'm doing this truth tour. By the way, if you. You want me to come to your church organization, go to stand America us. Stand America us. Or email us at [email protected] truthtour standinc.net or call us at 757-375-6444. And I'll be happy to come and give one of these talks. Let me. Let me talk a little bit about. About the whole history here. Because again, a part of the problem and part of the reason why people buy into stuff like this. If you. I guarantee you, if I. I guarantee you, if I said to. If I brought together a. A, a study group, an opinion group, what do they call them, you know, when you bring people together to. To try to get their opinions and get their views and as, let's say, 25Americans of African ancestry. And I asked them, based upon just what they've heard, didn't give them any more facts, just what they've heard. Do you think Carmela Anthony was in the right? I guarantee the majority of them, maybe 90% of them would say yes. Because, you see, they're taught to believe that the American criminal justice system is against the black man. And therefore, if Carmela Anthony is being charged, then he must be in the right. I mean, just like what you saw with O.J. well, they've gotten away with it. It's time we got away with it. I mean, all kinds of crazy stuff that people come up with. Let me give you a little bit of, a history. This is the kind of thing I'm going to be talking about with the Truth Tour, I've often said, and I say it in my book, if you've gotten it or read it or. by the way, there's an audio version of my book. It's not narrated by me. I wish it were, but it's not. But, you know, slavery was not racial. Slavery was not racial. It became racial. Now, first of all, you've heard me say this before, so forgive me for repetition, but it needs to be repeated. And particularly for any Americans of African ancestry. They need to understand this. Slavery was not unique to America. It was a worldwide phenomenon. It happened on every continent, among every people on the face of the earth. It began primarily by conquest, where when people were conquered, some of those people who were not killed were enslaved. Sometimes women were placed into, slavery as sexual objects or as domestic workers or field workers. Men were used sometimes as soldiers, or again, field workers, or to do other menial tasks. But you were placed in slavery by your conquerors. The slave trade eventually evolved into an economic trade, because then people who weren't soldiers necessarily, but needed people to work for them, they could go and buy those slaves either from whatever empire or government or warlord or leader had control of those slaves. They could buy those slaves from that person. And then the enforcement of those slaves in slavery was done by that wardlord or that person. I mean, so how it happened in Egypt? In Egypt, it just happened that a pharaoh arose that didn't like the Jews and just basically enslaved them because he had the power to do so. America is not unique. You know, the peculiar institution wasn't peculiar at all. It was a worldwide phenomenon. But here's. And you've heard me say this before, here's something you perhaps have never heard me say, but it needs to be said, even in America, slavery was not racial initially. Initially. Remember that. And I'm not, undoubtedly not going to have a chance to get into all this with you, but I hope I give you enough that you want to know more. you know, you HEAR the, 1619 Project said America was started to perpetuate slavery. And I said, well, that's really strange because the first settlers who came to the country obviously forgot to bring the object of the settlement, which is slaves. They didn't bring any. Well, that's really weird. They're going to the continent to start slavery, but they don't bring any slaves with them. And there were slaves in Great Britain at that time. Now, the slave trade was still fairly young because it didn't really start until the end of the 1400s. But still, when I say young at that point, it's about 100 years old. But it wasn't at its zenith at that point. But there were slaves available. They didn't bring any with them. I wonder why. Could it be. Because that's not. That wasn't the reason for coming to the North American continent, the NewSong World, as they then called it. Exactly. No, they came looking for freedom. They came looking for freedom of religion, freedom, to build a different life for themselves, a better life for themselves. in the Jamestown settlement, some of them, they came for economic opportunity. The first Africans to arrive on this continent came here by accident on the white line that suffered damages in a storm and was looking for a port where they could repair their ship and maybe gain some supplies to go on for the journey. I think they were headed for, if I'm not mistaken, I think they were headed for the West Indies. They weren't headed for America. And because they didn't have any money, they traded some of the captured, purchased, I should say purchased persons that they had on board, Africans that they had on board. they traded them into, not slavery, but into indentured servitude in order to get the supplies that they needed to continue their journey. That's how the first Africans landed on this continent, by accident. Because this is not where they were being brought. I tell you a story about Anthony Johnson. It was one of them. But I'll get into that later. Here's my point. From 1619, when they first arrived, all the way to, I believe, 1677, if I'm not mistaken, you had two classes of people who were working in sort of a servant role. Servant role, supposedly just working. You had indentured servants who were serving for a time, generally a seven year period, and you had slaves who were enslaved for a lifetime. Now, by the way, as that period unfolded, you had people who were indentured servants who were African American, and people who were indentured servants who were European. And you had people who were lifetime slaves who were African. Very few. And you had people who were lifetime slaves who were European. At that point, slavery was not defined by race. It was defined by a number of other things, legalities and all of that, but not by race. Because you had. And by the way, by 1677 or thereabouts, 1677, 1676, those people who were lifetime slaves became lifetime slaves. Because in Virginia the rule was passed that if your mother was a Slave. Then you were a slave for life. And that included Europeans as well as Africans. Now most people don't know that because they think, you know, the transatlantic slave trade, Africans and out there only, only black people were slaves. That's not true. That is simply not true. Black people were indentured service. Anthony Johnson was one of them. I don't have time to tell his story today, but I will during the Truth tour. And Europeans were lifetime slaves. Now when did that change? And by the way, this gives me an opportunity to say something else. You know, did you know that the concept, that's why I don't like it. But I use it because I'm trying to come up with a better vocabulary. But for the time being it'll have to do. But the concept of white people did not exist until it was created by the slave class in America. The slave owning class, the slave masters in America. It wasn't invented by white people, it was invented by slave masters. And here's why. Here's what happened because in 1676aman by the name of Nathaniel Bacon, who was himself a, well to do landowner, had a conflict with Governor Barclay at the time over a number of things, over taxation, but primarily over protection from the natives because he felt that Governor Barkley was not providing the fair share protection that was needed by people like him. And Nathaniel Bacon apparently was. He was a character. I'm not sure he's somebody to write home about, as a matter of fact, but he was a rough man. But he stirred up a rebellion. That's why they call it Bacon's Rebellion. Stirred up a rebellion in which he recruited and organized white indentured servants, black indentured servants, white slaves, black slaves, workers. Basically. He crossed all color and economic lines and put together a, ah, rebellion that was just absolutely unreal. I mean he burned down the Jamestown settlement. He was something else. And in fact he ran Barclay out of his own home. I think he would have killed him. But ultimately Nathaniel Bacon died. He wasn't killed, he died, I forget some malady that he contracted. The rebellion went on a little bit beyond him. But the slave owners learned something, which is when you have people, all of whom are in some way suffering economically, all of whom are oppressed, beware lest they come together across racial and cultural lines and create an uprising that you can't overcome. And that's when the so called slave codes came into being. And that's when a great big uncrossable line was created between quote, unquote, white people and black people. Because again, what I'm telling you is when the Europeans began to come to this country, they didn't see themselves as white. They saw themselves as people who came from a particular region, from a particular tribe. So you were Celtic Irish, or you were Northern Irish, or you were Scotch Irish, or you were Northern Italian or. Or you were Southern Italian, or you were Dutch, or you identified either with your village or your family. Or in very rare cases, with your nation. So British obviously had a very well developed nation state. So they identified with Great Britain. They identified with England. The French did too, because they identified with France. But you had a lot of these groups. Their countries were not really quite well formed. And they identified primarily with where they came from. That tradition, of course, we saw it unfold in the early 19th century in America, where you had. We considered them all Italians, but they very much considered themselves Sicilian. Calabrese. you know, you name it, whatever, whatever area they were from, that's how they. That was their identity. Not white. And as I said before, the northern Italians who were lighter looked down on the southern Italians who were darker. They m. Didn't see themselves as racially homogeneous in any way. That was an ideology imposed upon this nation by people who felt, we've got to make sure that white people are always on our side to help us keep these slaves under control. Because, look, folks, and this is so important. Do not forget this point. Slavery didn't help white people. It hurt them because it created a whole labor force with which the average white worker couldn't compete. And then you add to that that slave masters actually train certain slaves to be skilled laborers, to be Mason masons, to be carpenters, to be metal workers, to be blacksmiths. And now you've got workers who can't get that work, because the slave master's got a slave who can do that work and undercut the price that a regular laborer would charge. Again, that's why West Virginia was started. The West Virginians didn't start West Virginia as a free state because they were. They were abolitionists. They started West Virginia as a free state because they realized slavery undermined their ability to work and take care of their own families. So you got a system that is really undermining the ability to take care of themselves and their families. But you want people not to. Rather than rebel against that system, you want them to go along with it. The way you do that is you create for them, a fantasy which is, well, you may not be doing that well. You may be having a Hard time making ends meet. You may not be able to feed your family, but at least you're not one of them. You're way above them. They're way beneath you. So see, you got something to be really gratified about. You're white. Now, the average American of European ancestry did not benefit from that little bit of ideology at all, except psychologically to make them feel better about themselves. But it took root, it worked. But folks, even that wasn't a new phenomenon. And by the way, you know, I often think about this. For the British had practiced on the Irish long before they got to the Africans here in this country because they had done the same thing with the Irish. The Irish are lazy. The Irish are. All they want to do is drink. All they want to do is have fun. they're intellectually inferior. all they want to do is. They're hypersexual. I mean, all the stuff, all the caricatures that you could look back in history and find people would say about the black slave, the British had said about the Irish, I'm serious. It's not the skin, folks. That's not the issue. And so as Americans break free of that demonic ideology that somehow makes skin color the be all and end all of one status, and starts to see all human beings as made in the image and likeness of God, all with gifts and talents and abilities that God has given us. And looking at a person not based on the color of their skin, but the content of their character as Americans break free of that, all the people who have benefited from that have got to find a way to keep it going. And that's what we got going in our country right now. That's what the left is doing. That's what the Democrat party is doing. They got to keep it going. But you know, the Bible gives us a whole different standard, doesn't it? Acts 17:26, which I have posted, as you can see above the window behind me. Oh yeah, there it is. There he is. Made from one blood, every nation of men. And by the way, you know that word nation is not the word basilia or kingdom which involves a governmental entity, but the word ethnos. He is made from one blood, every ethnos, every ethnicity, every race, every, every color, every, every ancestral background, made from one nation, from one blood. One blood, one blood. We've all come from Adam and Eve, every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth and determine their pre appointed times and the boundaries of their dwellings that they might seek the Lord and grope for him so that they might find him. Now that's why God created the United States of America that we might seek the Lord. And that's why God determined our boundaries in our pre appointed times. See, people are so busy looking at the flesh that they fail to see the spirit. I really believe this, that God used a whole variety of things in this sinful world to bring about something glorious that he wanted, which is the United States of America. He got the Irish through a potato famine, he got the Italians through the pogroms and the poverty and the wars and the Germans who were escaping all kinds of violent circumstances around them. and just going from there, every background, I mean this nation is made up of people from pretty much every nation on earth, all coming here for a better life, all coming here for freedom, all coming here for economic opportunity, all coming, wanting to be Americans, wanting to be a part of this new world, this great new place. And now people have basically poisoned that. Now you got people who want to come to try to destroy America. They want to come to try to prove that America is an evil place. They want to come to try to destroy America from within. And you got people in this country telling them and telling the world, oh yeah, America's really, it really is a terrible place. It really is a racist place. It really is a white supremacist place. It really, that's what the Southern Poverty Law center is committed to doing. And don't pay any attention to those Christians talking about a providential nation and talking about one nation under God. Don't pay any attention to them. Those people are they're the real problem. They're the haters, they're the bigots, they're the bad ones. Folks, we're not going to save America unless we re educate our people to know the truth.

So you know what to do. Isaiah 62 says you that make mention of the Lord. Do not keep silence and give him no rest until he makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth. Give him no rest until he makes America a, praise in the earth. So stand up, step up, speak up and refuse to back up because we cannot be defeated if we will not quit because we are on God's side.
