Moderators, if you don't mind periodically, if you can put out the donation information throughout the broadcast for those who may want to do so, I definitely appreciate that. But let's get into this topic. As you saw on the video, young man walking around the grocery store, I'm not really sure what grocery store that it was, but he was walking around the grocery store with his butt showing, literally, literally. It was not, when we say showing you're behind, this one was an understatement. He was actually showing his behind. So much so that the store attendant or store employee, I believe maybe it was a manager, confronted this young man and told him either to pull his pants up or he would have to leave the store. And it's unfortunate that you have to have a woman confront a young man instead of having men do this, but this is where we are. We are in a society today in a culture, I would call it a subculture, where we do not have respect for authority. We do not have respect for individuals, personal property, space, consideration for others. We are just, we're gone as a society. If not gone, we're heading that way. And of course, we have a remnant of people, we have a remnant of people that don't think this way and we make up the remnant. Just make sure we all understand that. Those of us who see this type of behavior know that this type of behavior is reprehensible. We know it is detestable. We know that it has nothing to do with race, but it has everything to do with how we are raised and the lack thereof. And so I wanna talk about this. This is something that I addressed years ago, back in 2016, but I believe it's worth updating it, if you will. So same title, different subject, same issue. The demonic demise of a generation. And I wanna just ask a question if I can. How many of you believe that our society today, especially the black culture amongst our people, do you believe we're getting better or are we getting worse as a society, as a culture, as a people? Put up a one, if you think we're getting better, put up a two, if you think we are getting worse because just from what I'm seeing and what I'm watching, it does not look like we are getting better. It looks like we're getting worse as the days go by. And if we're getting worse, it's because the word of God is true. We're living in the last days, ladies and gentlemen. We're living in the last days because anybody that thinks that things are getting better that we're gonna be taking over society, if you have this post millennial view, then I feel sorry for you. I'm not really sure if you've been reading second Timothy chapter three, but the Bible says that in the last days, perilous times will come and we are in those times and it's getting worse. As you can see our country, our nation, we are on the brink of nuclear war with Russia, with China and our enemies. We're seeing the price of food and everything else that we would consider to be basic needs on the rise. But not only are those things on the rise, but wickedness and evil and corruption are on the rise as well too. And so we should not be surprised, but neither should we sit back and allow things just to go its own way without speaking out against it, without taking a stand against evil, without having a voice standing on the wall, sounding the alarm, being light in this culture, in this world. This is what the Lord has left us to do. He has called us to make disciples. That's what he's called us to do. He's called us to make disciples. And if we're making disciples, then we know that that is a process. And we should always be mindful of the fact that what we do affects others. So as I mentioned earlier, you saw that video, that's just one of the shameful, disrespectful and demonic displays of humanity that you can see. And one of the things I wanted to bring up as well, I'm not really sure if you remember. And if you have, if you do remember, then leave a comment, put up a one or yes or no. But I'm gonna go through a little bit of review because I wanna take us back to 2016. 2016, I believe back in March of 2016, Dr. James White had put up a post on Facebook. But as a result of the pushback that he received, he took it down. Why did he take it down? Well, in just a few moments, I'm gonna show you. I was able to capture his comment and his post and I actually put up a, I actually preached a sermon and I used his Facebook post back in 2016 as an introduction to the sermon that I did in 2016 titled the same thing, the demonic demise of a generation. And with that, if you know who James White is, you know that he is an apologist, a brother in Christ. Some people like him, some people don't. But it seems that there was a turn and a shift and a pivot from the black community going and supporting his channel, promoting his content, promoting his videos, liking the things that he said regarding Christianity and things of that nature. But as soon as he made a comment and soon as he shared his concern regarding what he saw, not what he heard, but what he saw, what he observed in his own city, in his own town in Arizona, the black community turned on him and began to call him a racist, began to tell him that he basically cannot say anything about the black culture, about black folk. Why? Because he is white. Not making it up. Not making it up because he's white. He basically made an observation. And in his observation, he caught, he caught flak. He caught flak, caught hell. And he basically had to, I'm gonna say had to, but he ended up deleting his content, deleting his video. But before he did, in which I don't believe he should have, but it just shows you how black folk are. It shows you as long as we don't have anyone say anything that we don't like, we're good with them. And I'm using we as in general. I'm not talking about the remedy, I'm talking about the subset of people that make up the majority by how we respond in public dialogue and discourse. Because I don't see any reason why Dr. James White needed to delete his post then, but it was because of the onslaught of comments. It was because of the attacks that he was receiving from black folk and a few eggshell walking white people. A few eggshell walking white folk, a few race baiting Negroes gave him and took him to task for something that he did nothing wrong about. This is, this is where we are unfortunately as a society, as a people. Do y'all remember growing up, I do. Do you remember growing up as a kid if you were doing something outside or if you were doing something in the store an adult could tell you don't do that? Or an adult can tell you to stop it or adult could even correct you. And even if you go further back, you had adults even whoop you and you would beg and plead that they don't tell your parents because if you did, you got double for your trouble. Anybody remember that? Anybody remember the days when you had people that can check you in your neighborhood if you were doing something wrong and they saw you and they said, hey, aren't you Lyman and Tula's son? Yes, sir, yes, ma'am. Well, you better get away from that for our column. And you would pray to high heaven that they did not by the time you got home call and tell your parents what you did. Does anybody remember that? Does anybody remember that? Well, those days are gone. Those days are gone. Unfortunately, sad to say they're gone. Now, again, say what you will regarding what James White did and what he said. I personally believe that he was spot on in what he said. And matter of fact, hopefully, I'm gonna play the audio of his post. Again, he removed it, but I was able to capture it and to share it in a sermon that I did. So let's go ahead and do that. Again, please like the video moderators. Please encourage those if you're coming in. Go ahead and like this video so we can get the algorithm up. Everybody, if you're black, you need to tag a friend. Matter of fact, if you're a brother or sister in Christ and you care about souls, you need to tag a friend, even tag an enemy. I don't even care at this point because what I'm about to give y'all is gonna be the truth. And we're gonna deal with it. We're gonna have to deal with this, all right? So this is Dr. James White. I'm gonna be reading his statement. This is not his voice, of course it's gonna be mine, but I'm gonna read his statement in this post. This is dated in 2016, March of 2016. Let's go. I bought a dash cam recently, seems everyone in Russia has one. And I thought it would be pretty good to have to document some of the crazy things that happened while driving. So I was coming home this evening and happened to be the first car at Glendale and 35th Avenue in Phoenix. As you will see, a young black kid looks to be 15 years old or so, was crossing the street. Now, if you watch, you will see a police SUV cross in front of me, first going east. The kid then comes into the screen and though he sort of hid it under his elbow, he plainly flips off the police vehicle. Then he is emptying the drink he is consuming as he walks out of the frame. What you can't see is that he then simply tossed the bottle into the bush in the corner of the gas station. I happened to notice the two ladies in the car next to me has seen the same thing. We just looked at each other, put up our hands in exasperation and shook our heads. As I drove away, I thought about that boy. There is more than 70% chance. Now, mark that in your mind. Now say that again. There is more than 70% chance he has never met his father. In all probabilities, in all probabilities, he has no guidance, has no example. He is filled with arrogance and disrespect for authority. He lives in a land where he is told lies every day, the lie that he cannot, through hard work and discipline, get ahead, get a good education and succeed in life. He has lied to and told the rest of the world owes him and the result is predictable. In his generation, that is right now, that 70% number will only rise. He may well father a number of children most of which will be murdered in the womb, padding the pockets of Planned Parenthood. Blacks make up the majority of aborted babies and those that survive will themselves be raised without a natural family, without the God ordained structure that is so important for teaching respect and true manhood and womanhood. It never crossed my mind to flip off a police car as it passed me by when I was his age. Of course, it never crossed my mind to walk around with my butt hanging out of my pants either as if the entire world needed to see what kind of underwear I was sporting that day. I know I would have been mighty guilty had I tossed my drink bottle into a bush and I never would have dreamed of doing that in front of everyone like this young man did but I had a father and a mother. And I was taught to respect others and myself. If I had not done those things, I still would have not acted as he simply did because times have changed and not for the better. There was simply more restraint in my day. It surely makes me wonder, it makes me wonder, excuse me, what the future holds. Oh, I know, this is nothing. There are videos online of kids like this shooting guns in the air and robbing people and doing car jackings. I know, but you need to understand those folks didn't get there without first finding it fun to strut, flip, toss and live in an attitude of disrespect. Now that was the first post that he made on, I believe, a Thursday of this week. He had a video that he mentioned in the statement that I just read to you and he recorded, he just randomly was recording what was going on and he saw a young man, 15 year old little boy, whatever, walk across the street. His pants were sagging. I actually saw the video. His pants were sagging as we see teams do as if they don't have any sense and he was walking across the street and I saw him give the cop the finger. He takes the bottle that he was drinking and he tosses it in the bush as Dr. White's statement has been described. Now, with that being said, his statement alone caused people in the black community in the black church to have an issue or umbrage with him. They were highly offended, so offended that the following statement that Dr. White makes is the following day after he had posted his video and I'm quoting. He says, quote, if Twitter were not such a wonderful source for dividing line, which is his radio ministry, if Twitter were not such a wonderful source for dividing line material and the like, I would dump it in a second. I am surely going to completely modify how I handle it in the future. Sorry, but as much as I enjoy making folks happy by retweeting something or favoriting it, I just have to stop responding to folks, post links, get links from the good researching type folks out there who are so very helpful, but the interaction part just not worth it anymore. No, I'm not talking about the fact that I have blocked dozen of Trumpites over the past months. Yesterday I posted a brief article and video about a young kid I saw on my way home yesterday. He flipped off a cop, strutted across the road with his butt waving in the wind, tossed his empty bottle onto the sidewalk, and generally let everyone know he's all that plus a bag of chips. I dare talk about the lack of having a father and a young man's family, the predation of Planned Parenthood and the rampant fornication so plainly documented today. Well, I got the message loud and clear today. I'm not allowed to notice those things or at least I cannot comment on them. See, I am the wrong color. The amount of melanin I have in my skin does not reach a sufficient level to allow me to speak to any such issue. As long as the kid strutting in front of my car, flipping off the police has more melanin than I do, I must shut up because I don't get the narrative. I just need to stick to what I'm good at. That's just fine. But don't talk about that stuff quote unquote because I am disqualified. I've stepped on a landmine a few times before. I've made the major, major mistake of honestly talking about my own youth and how my first best friend had a black father and a white mother and how being exposed to that at a young age made it hard for me to get why everyone gets so uptight about the race thing in the first place. Oh boy, that was a mistake. I didn't bow to the right gods. You used the right narrative language, paid the proper fees and that left me open to be mocked and ridiculed as the white boy. I am for daring to tell my story, lesson learned. This account only allows friends to comment. I get complaints about that all the time too but that's the way it is going to stay for sure. Otherwise, I'd be finding a way to get out of here too. Of course, how long we have on social media period is I believe quite limited. But that is another story, end quote. So that was the statement that Dr. White made. This was back in 2016. I was able again to capture it before he took it down. And so I believe that what he said was spot on. I do not believe that he was wrong in what he said. I do not believe that he was out of line in what he said. No one is going to convince me otherwise that Dr. James White and what he observed and what he said was wrong at all. Thank you, brother Tom for the super chat, brother. Thank you. You said, I remember this, James White told no lies on a separate note, studio looking. Thank you, brother. Appreciate it, bro. Xerix, you said James White needs to put in work. He needs to be reform, M&M, diving the culture. I see, and I think that's, I don't believe that. What he is what I believe. I believe that whatever God has called us to do, that's what we need to do. Him observing a situation does not necessarily warrant him to stop this young man and to give him the gospel. Let's just keep it a stack, y'all. Let's just keep it a stack. We not even doing that in our own hood because most of these so-called kids, you pull up on them, you don't know what they have in their pocket. You don't know what they have in their, you don't know what they carrying. So we have to be wise and serpents and innocent as doves as well. So I don't believe at all that because he's White, that he shouldn't say anything or because he's in a different neighborhood or area that he should say something. No, no, I believe that he needs to be wise. All of us need to be wise. We need to rely on the power of the Holy Spirit. We need to be careful in who we engage because if we engage the wrong one, trying to evangelize, hey, you may catch a bad one. So I think that the problem that I had with Black folk when they came at James White was because he was White and the boy was Black. Because let's just keep going, y'all, let's keep it real. Because if it was somebody Black that did that, you couldn't call him a racist. You wouldn't have questioned his integrity. You wouldn't have questioned whether or not he cares for Black people. Now, this is the same man that Black folk had no problem with when it came to him breaking down the languages or dealing with cultural issues but it was only until he had his dash cam on. It was only until he made an objective observation regarding someone walking around in broad daylight, sagging. And his statement regarding the Black community was not a lie at all. At most, if a Black person would have said anything, we would have been called a sellout. We probably would have been called a coon. We probably would have been called an uncle time which really shows their own ignorance because uncle time ain't even, it shouldn't be a disparaging word. It should be a word that really would be a compliment if you know your history and know the story behind uncle time. Just read Harry Beecher's Stone. But anyway. But this is where we are as a culture and as a society. See, for me, I'm having a problem telling you what time it is. I'm having a problem telling you what's going on with our culture and what's going on with our community. I've had conversations face to face. I've had conversations with people over the fall, whatever. But not everybody is called to engage the culture to go to the hood and all of that. But Black folk got mad at James White because he spoke the truth. But it was who he spoke the truth about is what got James White in trouble, quote unquote. And see, you gotta have tough skin if you're gonna be dealing with Black folk. You have to because if you don't, they'll try to run you off. Me, I ain't going nowhere, bro. It is what it is. So, but remember he said something. Dr. White said something that I want you remind you all as well. He said it's a high possibility that over 70%, that over 70%, that he's probably in the 70%ile of being born to an unwed mother or will probably be a part of the demise and the degradation or the spiraling downfall of our own culture. My question is, is where did James White lie? Because he was not lying at all. And how do I know he was not lying? Well, I'm glad you asked, ladies and gentlemen, because this is what I like to do. I like to bring receipts. I'm not, this is not, what I'm about to share with you all is not from CNN, is not from Epoch Times, is not from any right wing source. Mm-mm, nope, nope, nope. This is from, what I'm about to show you all, this is from The Root. Yeah, this is from The Root. So allow me to share my screen. This is from The Root dated November 9th, 2010. Title 72% of African American children born to unwed mothers. Do you see that? Interesting, isn't it? Seems like James White was spot on six years later. Quote, B.V. Blackspin's Kirsten West Savali takes a long, I mean, takes a look at harrowing statistics about the rate of births to unwed mothers in the black community. According to government statistics, 72% of African American children are born to unwed mothers. Dr. Natalie Carroll, an obstetrician who has dedicated her 40 year career to helping black women, feels that this is unfortunate. Quote, the girls don't think they have to get married. I tell them, children deserve a mama and a daddy. They really do. A mama can't give it all and neither can a daddy, not by themselves. End quote, Dr. Carroll says. Quote, part of the reason is because you can only give that which you have. A mother cannot give all that a man can give. A truly involved father figure offers more fullness to a child's life. End quote. This is not just an opinion. According to children, our investment.org, homes without fathers ultimately affect children in numerous tragic ways. 63% of youth suicides are from fatherless homes. 90% of all homeless and runaway children are from fatherless homes. 85% of all children who show behavior disorders come from fatherless homes. 80% of rapists with anger problems come from fatherless homes. 71% of all high school dropouts come from fatherless homes. 75% of all adolescent patients in chemical abuse centers come from fatherless homes. 85% of all youths in prison come from fatherless homes. These statistics apply to African-American homes and disproportionate numbers compared with the 72% in our communities, 17% of Asians, 29% of whites, 53% of Hispanics, and 66% of Native Americans were born to unwed mothers in 2008. The most recent year for which government figures are available. The rate for the overall US population was 41%. And again, that is from the root, ladies and gentlemen. That is from the root. But let me read one more section here. The article goes on to list various reasons why these numbers are the way they are, including the residual effects of slavery. Listen, segregation and the penal system. If every other day there's an article about black women being unmarriageable, then why do people expect black women to not have out of wedlock births? Are we saying that if you are not going to be a wife, then you should not have children? Yeah, that's exactly what Christians are saying. That's exactly what we're saying. The divorce rate in the African-American community is 32%, it's higher now. So those who are getting married aren't necessarily staying married. Those who start out with fathers in the home may not end up that way. The point about involved fathers is a good one. It is better to have a father in the home who is not present or involved just for the sake of having a man in the house. We all know great fathers who are involved and present, but we also know married women who function like single mothers when it comes to caring for children. Adding a man to the mix is not necessarily the solution. So you see how they flip? You see how they flip, right? They can't just stick with the facts. They gotta bring feelings because what does residual slavery have to do with anything? What has everything to do with everything if you wanna be a victim? But let me continue. They say, we think the problem is bigger than that in unwed mothers. So I just wanted to read it in this hotel because I didn't want anybody to think that I was being partial with this, but this is the mentality. They know what they said is right. That the reason why we having the issues that we have in our home is because the black family compared to how it used to be in the 40s and 50s. Matter of fact, can we just go back to slavery? Can we go back to where the family was more intact when they were being persecuted, when they were being enslaved? Then they were. Now that we have our freedoms and rights in this country. So this residual effects of slavery is bogus. But from a biblical standpoint, it doesn't wash when we have to stand before God and give an account for the things that we've done in our body, whether good or bad. Can't blame the white man, can't blame no man. You can blame the man in the mirror for the choices that you and I make in this life. I want to also read something. I'm just going to tell you right now, by the way, I hope y'all got your shoes, your steel toe boots on. I hope you brought your PPE, hard hat, safety glasses, all of that. Because there's going to be some toe stomping. There's going to be some, you're going to be hurt. Some of y'all going to be hurt. So you've been warned because the next resource I'm about to share with you, some of you don't have this book because it is out of print. But I tell you, if you do, you have a goldmine. You have a goldmine. And what do I mean by that? Well, there's a book that was written. I want to say back in round 2014, 2015, I believe it was titled Colorism, C-O-L-O-R-I-S-M. I'm not sure if any of you have that book. If you have that book, put a one up in the chat. Put a one up in the chat if you have that book. If you have that book, it's called culturalism. Thank you, culturalism, not colorism, culturalism, culturalism. If you have that book by Scott Hampton, you are one of the quote unquote lucky ones. You're one of the elite. Culturalism, I meant to say culturalism, not colorism, it's culturalism, C-U-L-T-U-R-I-S-M, culturalism. And Scott Hampton, I had him on my broadcast when I was doing blog talk radio back in the day. I had to reach out to him and his data and information was just irrefutable. But if you have it, you definitely need to hold on to it because it's out of print. If you go online right now to Amazon and you try to, you try to order that book, I think it's in the hundreds. But I believe it's out of print. I believe it's out of print. But I want to share a portion of this chapter with you because this one is hard hitting. It is very hard hitting, so you've been warned, all right? You've been warned. Again, the title of the book is called Culturalism, Scott Hampton. And in this chapter, he titles this chapter Black Trash. Black Trash is what he titles it. Quote, there are billions, maybe trillions of planets in the universe, eight planets in our solar system about 196 countries on this earth with almost 7 billion people. And black trash are likely the worst species of beings you will ever encounter in your life. They are thoroughly demented individuals who totally deserve the trash label. This may seem like a harsh assessment, but they are single-handedly destroying the black community. A group that willingly commits genocide against its own people should duly be considered trash at the very least. And this is not just my opinion. This is how the world sees them. The world sees them as trash. Anyone who thinks this is harsh and feels sorry for black trash, you keep in mind that because of them, innocent black children are injured and killed every single day due to senseless violence. Countless black kids can't play outside for fear of catching stray bullets. Many elderly black people are afraid to come outside and are held hostage in their own homes. A person stands a good chance of being shot, stabbed or beaten for no reason in many black communities. Hundreds of thousands of black people have lost family and friends to senseless violence. Many people, including blacks, feel unsafe around black males. Open-air drug markets are rampant in many black communities. Prizes are absolutely packed with black inmates. A fair number of black schools have metal detectors and armed security. Businesses can't survive in certain black neighborhoods without being mercilessly and violently robbed. Black people frequently get watched and followed in stores by shopkeepers. Tons of black children grow up in extremely broken, psychologically damaging, father-absent households with unqualified mothers. Countless little black girls will grow up thinking it is okay to be rude, combative and unfeminine. Black boys often grow up to become useless adults who are only good for procreating and committing crime. Other races consider black people to be lazy, and uneducated. Negative stereotypes about black people will never cease. Black people are not respected or taken seriously by other races. Television producers can make a mockery of black people by portraying them as buffoons. The spread of STDs among sexually active black people is totally out of control. Abortion clinics tend to be filled with black women, most of whom have already had multiple aborted pregnancies and or multiple children. Property values in black neighborhoods are abysmally low. Black people are viewed as being mentally inferior. The financial power of black America is withering away, and the black middle class is shrinking. Black America is collapsing from within. Thanks to black trash, this list could go on and on, considering the havoc they inflict upon the black community. It is very difficult to understand how anyone can feel sorry for black trash or make excuses for them. It is also very difficult to understand how anyone could blame white people or racism for black society's problems. White people are not to blame for these problems, nor is racism. Black trash are solely to blame for black society's problems, and there is no excuse that can be made for their behavior because they deliberately, purposefully, and willingly choose to behave like uncivilized beasts. They are not helpless victims of their circumstances. No one is born as black trash. Black babies are born pure, regardless of whether their parents are poor or not. Unfortunately, they eventually learn to become black trash. They learn how to be trashy through a set of traditions, no different than the traditions of any other group of people. Sadly, these traditions are alarmingly negative, and far too many black people refuse to defy these negative traditions. If anything, countless black people go out of their way to be ghetto and ratchet, even black people from comfortable middle class backgrounds. There is absolutely no reason in the world why the vast majority of black Americans can't become responsible law-abiding adults. If black thugs, ghetto divas, and low-lifes didn't willingly allow negative mentalities and traditions into their lives, they could do anything. They are mentally plagued strictly because they choose to be, and that was what makes them trash. It's about time that black society started recognizing them for the trash that they are. It's time to stop celebrating black trash as if they are the kings and queens of black society. They aren't even worthy of licking the boots of kings and queens. The true kings and queens of black societies are right-minded African Americans. Black trash are nothing more than a scourge to society and particularly to the black community. They essentially have no redeeming qualities and nothing about their lifestyle is cute. Being an ignorant, repugnant thug is not cute. Being an abrasive, unpleasant nag who indiscriminately conceives children with multiple worthless men is not cute. Being a coward who was afraid to live life as a right-minded individual is not cute. There's nothing cute, charming, or praiseworthy about anyone who harbors the ghetto mentality. Ghetto thugs are impoverished, uneducated, unskilled, insecure, dirty, homicidal losers with dim futures, and there's no reason they should be glorified. Similarly, ghetto divas shouldn't be praised for being violent, unfeminine manches because they're refusing to make responsible decisions absolutely guarantees the creation of broken, dysfunctional black families. People who willingly lead corrupt, irresponsible, immoral lives do not deserve to be exalted or celebrated. Accordingly, black society must stop showering and praise upon repugnant, repulsive individuals who are poor excuses for human beings. Black society must stop babying these savages and making excuse after excuse for them. It's time to get tough with the black trash and it's time for them to learn their place. They do not represent right-minded black people and right-minded black people want nothing to do with them. Just to be clear, right-minded black people are not to blame for black America's problems. Right-minded black people really understand what blackness is all about. That is, they have a healthy perception of blackness and they honorably represent the intelligence, creativity, and industriousness that black people naturally possess unlike black trash, right-minded black people are great contributors to society. Yet, right-minded black people aren't totally faultless. They deserve a tiny bit of the blame because far too many of them choose to turn a blind eye refusing to address the ignorance and stupidity of black trash. Beside this fault, they really can't be criticized for any issues facing black society today. In terms of intelligence, work ethic, morals, every other measure, right-minded black people are on par with any other race of human beings in the world. There are plenty of success stories to prove that a black person with a good head on his or her shoulders can accomplish just as much in life as a non-black person. This shouldn't be surprising because skin color has nothing to do with a person's ability to achieve. Obviously, right-minded black people and black trash have nothing in common other than the color of their skin. And that point can't be emphasized enough. Right-minded blacks actually have more in common with the right-minded whites, Asians, and Hispanics. And this has nothing to do with imitating white people because white people aren't the only ones who have the right to be right-minded. Since being right-minded is not exclusive to any one race, it should be expected that right-minded blacks value most of the same things that right-minded whites do. The same can't be said about right-minded black people and black trash. The values, beliefs, and priorities of these two groups will always be in total opposition. All of this is not meant to suggest that right-minded blacks or any other group of people are perfect, no one is perfect, and right-minded people are not immune to mistakes and dumb decisions. But right-minded people learn from their mistakes while black trash make mistake after mistake after mistake and are too blinded by their mental disease to even acknowledge their errors or learn from them. And unlike right-minded individuals, black trash purposely make ill-advised decisions that are always guaranteed to result in exceedingly negative consequences. Black thugs choose to sell drugs knowing they can end up in prison for the rest of their lives. Ghetto divas choose to sleep with worthless scumbags knowing they could end up as single mothers with illegitimate children to take care of. It seems as like black trash run full speed toward mistakes while right-minded individuals try to run away from them. Without a doubt, every group of people has lowly individuals amongst its ranks. White people have white trash, Asians have Asian trash, Hispanics have Hispanic trash, and so on and so forth. This is understandable because it's impossible for every member of a particular race to be of sound mind. Unsavory people from all races will always exist. The problem is not that black trash exists. The problem is that there are too many of them. They make up the larger percentage of the black community than they should. If there were far fewer black trash, the problems facing black America would be far less prevalent. But just as long as black trash are treated like royalty, they will continue to multiply. If insecure, weak-minded individuals realize they can attain ghetto celebrity status by becoming thugs and ghetto divas, they will be very motivated to do so. Black people are not the only people on earth who actually celebrate their trash. Excuse me, black people are the only people on earth who actually celebrate their trash. Other races have got it figured out. They openly disprove of their population's trash and the bad decisions they make. Blacks have to start openly disproving of black trash and reminding them that they are at the bottom rung of black society. They are the most embarrassing, disgraceful segment of the black American populace. And if more of them were reminded of this, maybe they wouldn't be so proud of being black trash. Now, if somebody can find a lie, please show me. Please show me where you can find a lie and what this brother said. Please show me where a lie is at. I'll wait. I will wait. There's one other book that's worth honorable mention that I would highly, highly suggest that you get. And I'm just gonna share it on the screen and I'll let you read it. You all are intelligent people. This book is from to leave Starks in title. Yep, that's the book. That's another book. He also has another book called Black Lies, L-I-E-S Matters. Black Lies Matter. But this book right here? Yeah. Matter of fact, he even gave me a, he even sent me a shirt. He even sent me a shirt. I wore it once, but that's about it. But yeah, this book and cultureism, if you have it, I would not give that up for anything in the world. That is a collector's item. You do not wanna let anybody borrow it because you may not be able to borrow it back. But anyway, so some of you, I know watching this video are probably gonna say that man was wrong for calling black people black trash. I've heard people say that when I first read this, this ain't the first time I be reading it. But I've had people tell me that this brother was wrong for calling people black trash and this and that. And I said, no, he wasn't wrong. I said, biblically, he's spot on. Yeah, biblically, he's spot on. And in fact, he's so spot on that what I'm gonna do is give you all biblical examples and provide biblical precedent to show how these kinds of words can be used and should be used and must be used when behavior like this runs rampant in our society. All right, y'all ready? We good? I won't be before y'all long. At least I'm gonna have to try. But if you have your Bible, I hope you do. Are we gonna get on the Bible bus? Yes, we are. Cause now it's time to get it in. Now it's time to get it in. So we're gonna go to Deuteronomy 21 and verse eight. Deuteronomy 21 and verse eight. Verse 18, excuse me. Deuteronomy 21 verse 18. Look what it says. If any man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey his father or his mother and when they chastise him, he will not listen to them. Then his father and mother shall seize him and bring him out to the elders of his city at the gateway of his hometown. They shall say to the elders of his city, this son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard. And all the men of his city shall stone him to death so that you shall remove the evil from your midst and all Israel will hear of it in fear. Now, of course we know we're not living in the time and the days of Israel. Cause most of our kids were making, we probably, some of us when we made it by now. But you see the principle? Let me show you something real quick. Look at verse 18 again. If any man notice has a stubborn and rebellious son, they don't say strong will. Mm-mm, mm-mm, nope. Stubborn and rebellious. They're calling his behavior what it is. Stubborn and rebellious. If any man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey, not that he has a mental disability, not that he has a mental disorder, no, no, no. No, he knows. And I even use she. They know what to do. They refuse to do it. They're rebellious, they're recalcitrant. They refuse to submit to God ordained authority. They will not, he will not obey his father and his mother and when notice and when they chastise him. So notice, it ain't just the father doing it. It's not just the father dealing with the child or dealing with this person, this young adult. And the reason why I say he's probably a young adult is because he's a drunkard. Yeah, verse 20. I mean, I don't think there's no tolerance drinking on the cognac in the Hennessy in Boone's Farm. No, this verse 20 says then they should say to the elders of the city, this son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He would not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard. But there's a team effort on dealing with this boy. It ain't just the father. It's the father and the mother. Do y'all see that? If you see that, put up a one, put up a yes in the comments. Cause I want us to see this. Ladies, sisters, mothers, wives, when your husband is dealing with that boy, yeah, he need to be dealing with him. But don't just leave him hanging. Don't have him acting like he's the only one that sees the problem and you just wanna baby this boy. No, no, no. Get him off the breast milk. Both of you, the text says both of them chastised him. Both of them checked this boy. And when he refused to listen, they put him out. Oh, okay, okay, okay. Y'all don't see that. Let me show you, let me show you. Then his father and mother shall seize him. They lay hands on him and they bring him out to the elders of his city at the gateway of his hometown. They say, okay, this son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He would not obey us. He's a glutton and a drunken. Then all the men of his city, all the men of his city. And that's the problem right there. I mean, listen, our country is so jacked up. Listen, we don't even have real men dealing with this. This is one of the laws and policies that we have right now. It favors the wrong and punishes the right. I'm just giving you principles. I know we're not living in the days of Israel. I know we're not under a theocratic society. I know we're not, but we can glean from these principles. The text says, he refuses to listen to both the father and the mother, they both put him out. Ladies, women, yeah, you had him, but he is the one that planted him in you. You get my drift? So it ain't just your child, it is both of y'all's child, but when he's rebellious or when they refuse to line up, it's time for them to leave. And both of you better be in agreement because these parents were. They didn't have to pray about it. They didn't have to dialogue about it. They say, no, no, you gotta go, bro. You causing too much hell in the house. One thing we're gonna have in the house, we're gonna have peace, and they put him out. But no, that's what they call him. They call him stubborn and rebellious. That's what they call him, stubborn and rebellious. Some of us don't even wanna call out our kids anything like that, but the Bible makes it clear the behavior warranted that type of rebuke. First time year 212, are y'all all right? Verse 12, first time year two. Now the sons of Eli, notice, were worthless men. Wait a minute, I thought we were all men in the Amargo day. Yeah, we are. Yeah, we are. The sons of Eli were worthless men. They did not know the Lord. And we know what they did. They was having sex with the women in the temple at the door. Yeah. In other words, they were sons of Belial. We would say in our day and our culture and our society, they were no good. They were no good men. They were no good. They were up to no good. That's what they were. First Samuel 25. Just give me y'all some examples that the Bible does not distill harsh language and hard words. Y'all remember Abigail? Abigail was married to a fool. I'm not gonna ask you, is any of you wives married to a fool, because I don't wanna get nobody in trouble so don't put up nothing. Just be quiet. Just blink real, real fast. We'll see it in the comments. But Abigail was married to a fool. His name was Nabal. And that's actually what his name means. Verse 25 of First Samuel 25. David was getting ready to clean house because Nabal took advantage of David and his men. And the text says in verse 25, she meets David while David was on his way to kill every man in Nabal's household. The verse 25 says, please do not let my Lord pay attention to this worthless man, Nabal. She's actually talking about her own husband. Notice, he says, please do not let my Lord pay attention to this worthless man, Nabal, for as his name is, so is he. Nabal is his name, and Folly is with him. And then she explains, but I, your maid servant, did not see the young men of my Lord whom you are sent. Now therefore, my Lord, as the Lord lives and as your soul lives, since the Lord has restrained you from shedding blood and from avenging yourself by your own hand, now then let your enemies and those who seek evil against my Lord be as Nabal. I mean, y'all know the story. Just to give you examples on what, how words are used to describe people's behavior. First Kings, first Kings 21 and verse nine. Story of Jezebel, story of Jezebel. She sets up a man named Nabal, not Nabal, but Nabal. He had a vineyard, Ahab wanted his vineyard and Nabal said, no, it's mine, I inherited it, it's mine. Ahab goes home, cries and whines to his wife, Jezebel. She sets up Nabal by having two worthless men. The text says it right there, verse nine. Now she wrote in the letter saying, proclaim a fast and seek Nabal at the head of the people and seek two worthless men before him and let them testify against him saying, you cursed God and the king. Then take him out and stone him to death. Let me just say this real quick. Let me pull over real quick and say this. This is why it is very dangerous and demonic when you have people lie on you because the Bible says about a testimony of two or three witnesses, let every fact be confirmed. But we know here in the text that some people you can have that will lie on you and they're no good. We know that the scriptures give us examples of people would lie and a multitude of people will lie on you to make what they're saying true and it's not true. These men lied on Nabal and said that he had cursed God and the king and this man lost his life over a lie. How many people do you know how many people do we know and have seen people's lives been destroyed because of a lie? I mean, I'm living witness of that. I'm living witness of that. The mob did that to me. Oh, let's just keep it real. Lied, did videos, made infamous videos about me. Took words out of context, stripped videos that I made, turned it on his ear, took out what was actually said and inserted what they wanted it to say, put commentaries in it and cause people who used to support me and this channel and the work that I did and cause them to be swept away all because of a lie or series of lies. Don't think for one nanosecond, God is not gonna deal with that. Yeah, he will. God's gonna deal with every individual or individuals who have used their mouth to destroy other people. He basically acting like Satan. That's what Satan is. Satan is the accuser of the brethren. So you have some people that are on Satan's payroll thinking that they are with God and they're not. These men lied on Naboth. This man lost his life over a lie. How many people are in jail on death row who have lost their lives because somebody lied on them? Over a lie. It's very dangerous, y'all. Very dangerous. No, no, no, that's not, not surely good. Take a number. There's few people that wanna get at him. Yeah, absolutely, absolutely ex-Pastore friends too. So-called. So-called. Yep, the mob, the real, the really great works they go do to Marcus Rodgers and they have, yep, no. And also because I was dealing with MacArthur. I mean, you know, it's all about idolatry. But I'm gonna be dealing with K-Dub later on. So y'all just stay tuned with that. But anyway, I wanted to share that with you. So let's get back to the text. Let's look at another scripture. We're gonna look at Proverbs 7, verse 10. Proverbs 7, verse 10. Solomon tells his son to be aware of adulterous and seductress women, right? But notice what the text says in verse 10. He says, And behold, a woman comes to meet him dressed as a harlot and cunning of heart. Do y'all see that? Dressed as a harlot. Dressed as a harlot. You know what that means? You don't have to be a whore to dress like one. But if you're dressing like one, some people may think you are one. Yeah. I'm not making it up. It's right there in the text. Look, look, look, look, look, verse 10. Proverbs 7. And behold, a woman comes to meet him, the naive comes to meet him dressed as a harlot. And some people think that how we dress don't matter, according to God it does, because how we dress reveals the heart. What we put on, how we don our sales in apparel, reveals what's in our heart. And let me just say this, it ain't just for the women either. It also applies to us as men. Can I just go there and say it? Can I just go ahead and say, men, we need to be careful how we carry and conduct ourselves if we're working out and we're putting up pictures of ourselves, what our chests and everything's showing. That's just, I mean, come on. I know, I know. We want to talk about the Cleveland girls, but none of us want to talk about the men. No, I'm gonna hit it straight. We need to be careful how we conduct ourselves. We need to be careful what we do and how we carry ourselves. This is across the board. It ain't just not just for one side. It's for both sides, it's for men and women. We tell women what they shouldn't be wearing because it causes us to be tempted and all that kind of stuff. Well, women, I mean, men, women have eyes too. Believe me, they do. And they see things that you think they don't see, but they see it. And they have ways of looking that you don't ever realize that they're looking at us. How we sit matter. Not trying to be scatological, not trying to be, you know, racy in my commentary here, but man, we need to be careful how we sit and how we position ourselves when we're sitting in front of women. Can I go there? Can I just say that? We need to be very careful, be very mindful when we are around women, how we sit and the positioning of our legs in front of women matter. We're all adults here. We are grown. I think we get the gist and the point of what I'm making. I hope we do. I think I brought the cookies down from the top shelf enough. So we need to be mindful of that. And yes, some of us have more than others. That means we need to be mindful of how we carry it out and how we carry it and what we do with it. But we all know what the text says. God says, this woman was dressed like a harlot. That means there was a difference in how she carried herself. It was a difference in what she wore versus the other women of her day. And the same is true for us in our society. We're not talking about walking around wearing burlap bags and all that kind of stuff, but let's not be dumb. We know what gets attention and what doesn't. We know this. I remember back in 2017, I got into it with Kurt Franklin. Some of y'all remember that? Some of y'all remember that, right? Kurt Franklin's daughter was putting up pictures and she's an adult. She's a young adult. She was not a kid. And she's talking about she's a prior 31 woman. I said, no, no, based on how you dress, you're a prior 7, 10 woman. You're dressing like a harlot. And people try to get at me because I said that. Well, I'm seeing what the Bible says. And so Kurt Franklin went viral. I went viral and people started coming for me. I'm like, bro, I ain't going nowhere. I said what I said. And it would be no different than my daughter or daughters would dress like that. If you don't want people to call you one, then don't dress like one. Simple, but the text makes it clear. She was dressed as a harlot. He didn't even call her one. He just said she's dressing like one. You see my point? Proverbs chapter 12 verse one. Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is stupid. We don't wanna like people to be called stupid anymore. Well, God says it. God says it. Proverbs 20 verse 11. It is by his deeds that a lad distinguishes himself if his conduct is pure and right. If his conduct is pure and right. Proverbs 30 verse 11. There's a kind or there's a generation who curses his father and does not bless his mother. There's a generation or kind who is pure in their own eyes. They think they know everything, yet it's not washed from his filthiness. There is a kind, oh, how lofty are his eyes and his eyelids are raised in arrogance. There's a kind whose teeth are like swords and his jaw like knives to devour the afflicted from the earth and the needy from among men. I mean, it's just the attitude, mentality. And we see that now there in society today. Matthew chapter seven, verse six, Jesus says, do not give what is holy to dogs and do not throw your pearls before swine or they will trample them under their feet and turn and tear you into pieces. Matthew 15, 26. And the answer then said, it is not good to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs. But she said, yes, Lord, but even the dogs feed on the crumbs which fall from the master's table. Do you see these terms? He's calling this gentile woman a dog. Matthew 25, 26. But his master answered and said to him, you wicked, lazy slave, you knew what that I read where I did not sow and gather where I scattered no seed. Then you ought to have put my money in the bank and on my arrival, I would have had received my money back with interest. Notice he calls him in verse 26, wicked and lazy. Galatians chapter three and verse one. Paul writes to the Galatian church, you foolish Galatians. Yes, there's a town that calls somebody a fool when their behavior warrants it. But calling somebody a fool in anger is sin. We know that. But here, the behavior warrants the rebuke. You foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you before whose eyes Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed and crucified. And then lastly, Titus chapter one, verse 12. Just wanted to give you a representative list of texts to show you that sometimes harsh words are necessary when they're being committed. One of themselves, a prophet of their own said, cretins are always liars, evil beasts and lazy gluttonies. Hard times, ladies and gentlemen, hard terms, ladies and gentlemen, hard terms. So my point is, there are times when we are to call persons behavior for what they are, which brings me to the point that I wanted to say right now. Again, we live in a society that I believe is dominated and influenced and possessed by demons. The black community, let's look at the award shows that we see. I mean, look at the Grammys that happened. Was that the Grammys that happened a couple of weeks ago? Look at the parading and the debauchery and the reveling and the demonic realm. Look at our culture, look at the music that our people make and listen to. Look at the entertainment that our people condone. Look at it. And then when we say this is not representative of who we are as a people, what we glory in the destruction of other individuals and call it entertainment. When we gloat and we brag about how our rights are more important than God's righteousness, when we can strut like peacocks and go to have our own babies, our own seed, massacred and murdered in the womb. I mean, the church reflects the home. The church is a reflection of our homes today. Look at the churches today. Look who leads our churches, weak men, or spiritual lesbians that are called female pastors that should not be leading God's house because they're not called to lead their house, their husbands are. And so when you see this kind of stuff go on, when you see this kind of behavior go on, you have to ask yourself, how far have we gone? How far have we gone? I believe we've gone very far. And this is why I say that this generation, the demise, this demonic demise of today's generation must be addressed. But the Bible says there's nothing new under the sun. And so my Bible is turned to Mark chapter five. Mark chapter five, I want us to read a story. And in this text, you're gonna see, I hope you see some examples on what demonic possession looks like. And then ask yourself, is our society, our culture within the black community, are there some earmarks of demonic possession that has gone under the radar that we have yet to address or we refuse to address? Let's go to the text. Mark chapter five, and all that was my introduction. Mark chapter five, we're gonna focus at verses one through 15. We all know it. They came to the other side of the seed, Jesus and the disciples, into the country of the garrisons. And when he got out of the boat, immediately a man from the tombs with an unclean spirit met him and he had his dwelling among the tombs. And no one was able to bind him anymore, even with the chain, because he had often been, notice, he had often been bound with shackles and chains. And the chains had been torn apart by him and the shackles broken in pieces and no one was strong enough to subdue him. Constantly, verse five, night and day, he was screaming among the tombs and in the mountains and gashing himself with stones. Verse six, seeing Jesus from a distance, he ran up and bowed down before him and shouting with a loud voice. He said, what business do we have to do? Now what business do we have with each other, Jesus? Son of the Most High God, I implore you by God, do not torment me. For he had been saying to him, come out of the man, you unclean spirit. And he was asking him, what is your name? And he said to him, my name is Legion, for we are many. And he began to implore him earnestly, not to send them out of the country. Now there was a large herd of swine feeding nearby on the mountain. The demons implored him saying, send us into the swine that we may enter them. Verse 13, Jesus gave them permission and coming out, the unclean spirits entered the swine and the herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea, about 2,000 of them, and they drowned and they were drowned in the sea. Verse 14, the herdsmen ran away and reported it in the city and in the country and the people came to see what it was that had happened. They came to Jesus and observed the man who had been demon-possessed, sitting down, clothed, and in his right mind, the very man who had the Legion and they became very frightened. The demonic demise of a generation, the demonic demise of the generation. I wanna touch on a few points here, as we read in Mark 5, verses 1515. I see in verses one to three, verse eight and nine, we see satanic possession, that's pretty obvious. Satanic possession, verses one through five, one through three, excuse me, verse eight and nine, we see satanic possession, look at the text. They came to the other side of the sea and to the seat of the country of the garrisons and when he got out of the boat, immediately a man from the tombs with an unclean spirit met him. Verse three, he had his dwelling among the tombs and no one was able to bind him anymore, even with a chain. Verse eight and nine, but he had been saying to him, come out of the man, you unclean spirit, and he was asking him, what is your name? And he said to him, my name is Legion, notice the plural for we are many, we are many. Our many. This man is demon possessed, it's clear by how he is behaving. The text says that he had an unclean spirit. He had an unclean spirit, verse one, I mean verse eight and nine, come out of the man, you unclean spirit. Verse one to three again, they go to the country of the garrisons and immediately a man from the tombs with an unclean spirit met him. And this story is also in the synoptic gospel. We find in Luke chapter eight, verse 27, the text says that he was naked. He was naked, the text says. This is how we know, ladies and gentlemen, you wanna know if a person is demonically possessed, look at how they dress or what they have on or what they don't have on. When you can walk around like I showed y'all in that video, when you can walk in a grocery store and show your behind literally, or when you can go to a place, a public place and you show your underwear or you show it parts of your body that should be covered, that's a spiritual problem, ladies and gentlemen. The text says this man was naked. He was demonically possessed. That means this individual was being controlled and dominated by forces and by spirits beyond his control. It controlled his spirit, which controlled his mind, which controlled his mannerisms, his whole being was controlled and operated by demons. That is what the text says. We know also, the Bible says in Romans chapter eight, verses nine, verse nine, that if anyone does not have the spirit of God, he or she does not belong to him. The text makes it clear. You wanna know if a person is born of God? Watch how they behave, watch how they live. We're talking about over a course of life. This man was demonically possessed and he was possessed for quite some time. So much so, it affected how he lived and it affected who was around him or who did not want to be around him or who could not be around him. We see a satanic possession. Verse one to three and verse eight and nine. We also see satanic placement, satanic placement. What do you mean by that? Say, go verse four, verse three and four. Well, we can read verse two. Let's start with verse two. When he got out of the boat, immediately a man from the tombs, from the tombs, with an unclean spirit met him and as he was dwelling among the tombs, as he was dwelling among the tombs, this man is living among dead things. You know he's not in his right mind because he's living in a tomb. We'll call it cemetery. He's living in places where there's death. We have a society of people that now want to glory in dead things. They want to get as close as they can to death. That's satanic, y'all. People are entertaining the demonic realm when they play with death. The text shows us here that he was around dead things. He was entertained by dead things. His whole livelihood and lifestyle was death. It was death. We have a generation in the culture today that wants to play and entertain and toy around with death. Death is nothing to play with. Matter of fact, death is an enemy. So why would we want to play with enemy? Why would we want to mess with around with our enemy? The enemy is death. Death isn't going to be the last thing that's going to be destroyed, the Bible says. So why are we toying and entertaining death? I'll tell you why. Because also our culture and our society has now trafficked into the demonic realm. And most of our reform brothers and sisters don't want to talk about demons and this is why he gets over on most reform churches and most reform people because we want to ignore it and then charismatic, see the devil and everything. There's no balance. There must be balance. There is a devil, but the devil has no authority over the believer because the spirit of God lives in us. Greater is he that is in us than he that is in the world. However, we have a formidable foe. Satan is powerful, but he is not all powerful. Satan is mighty, but he is not almighty. We resist the devil and he will flee from us but God never tells us to rebuke him. He never tells us to bind him. Never. And this is where the ignorance and the naivete comes in because we are not being taught and we're not telling people what the Bible says about the demonic realm. What the Bible says and teaches about demons. Demons are real. And yes, there are people who can still be possessed by demons. What do you think the pharmaceutical industry is about? When you abuse drugs, you are dealing with the demonic realm. Sorcery, witchcraft, pharmacia, where we get the word pharmacy from. So when people are seeing things and hallucinating, that's the spirit realm. This man is around dead things. This man is placed himself in and around death. We have a culture and society of young people who are playing with death, drill music. I mean, smoking and taking anything that they can, that's legally now acceptable. Just because it's legal doesn't mean that it's right. In God's eyes. But we find this demonic act in a death, in a demonic situation. He has placed himself in Satan's realm, which is death. Let's look at the text again. When he got out of the boat, immediately a man from the tombs with an unclean spirit met him. And as he had his dwelling among the tombs. He had his dwelling among the tombs, ladies and gentlemen. People want to go to haunted houses and all that kind of stuff. Why? Why? Why would you want to do that? Why would you want to play with death? What is it about that that entertains you, that fascinates you? If we're of the light, we don't want to be around the dark in dark things. Because we're people of the light. So we see a satanic possession. We see satanic possession. We see satanic placement verse two through three. But we also see a social predicament. A social predicament. Look at verse three and four. The B clause of verse three and four. Notice what the text says. He says, as he had his dwelling among the tombs, notice, and no one was able to bind him anymore, even with the chain, because he had often been bound with shackles and chains. And the chains, it says, had been torn apart by him and the shackles broken in pieces and no one was strong enough to subdue him. Notice, this is a so societal problem. In other words, he could not be arrested. He could not be put in prison. He couldn't be taken into custody because he was demonically possessed. The text says verse three and no one was able to bind him anymore, even with a chain, because he had often been bound with shackles and chains and the chains had been torn apart by him. And the shackles broken in pieces and no one was strong enough to subdue him. That's demonic possession. This is how you know when a person is demonically possessed. PCP, you hear stories about people talking about being under the influence of PCP and they're stronger than 10 men, 20 men? That's demonic possession, ladies and gentlemen. I would say so, sister Sheila. Yes, I would say so. It can, it can. So we see a social predicament. No one could restrain him. No one could control him. No one could take him into custody. No one, we find here also, when Christ came on the scene, we see now he's satanically subdued. We see Satan has now been subdued or these demons have been subdued. Verse six through 12, verse six through 12, notice what it says. Seeing Jesus from a distance, he ran up and bowed down before him. You see that? When Jesus comes on the scene, Satan must bow. He has no authority. Seeing Jesus from a distance, he ran up and bowed down before him and shouting with a loud voice. He said, what business notice do we have to do? What business do we have with each other? Jesus, son of the most high God? This man is talking, but is the demons that are talking through him? We know like you hear about his whole term ventriloquism. But this man has demons possessing him. The text says, what business do we, he didn't say what business do I, he said, what business do we have with each other? Jesus, son of the most high God, I employ you by God, do not torment me. I told you all, demons have better theologies than most Christians today. Verse eight, before he had been saying to him, come out of the man, you unclean spirit. And he was asking him, what is your name? And he said to him, my name is Legion for we are many. A Legion is 6,000. This man has 6,000 demons in him. 6,000. I mean, listen, one is enough, y'all. One is enough. This man has 6,000 demons in him. We see a social predicament. We see he's being satanically to do, but I miss one point. Let me go back to verse five. He's also self-destructive. Let me go to verse five. He's self-destructive. Verse five, constantly night and day, he was screaming among the tombs and in the mountains and gashing himself with stones. Do y'all see that? We call it today cutting. There are some people who are cutters. That's a spiritual problem, ladies and gentlemen. That's a spiritual problem. Constantly night and day, he was screaming among the tombs and in the mountains and gashing himself with stones, with stones. Not with a knife, but with stones, ragged, rugged edges of rock. He's gashing himself with stones. When you hear this kind of behavior going on, that is a spiritual issue. That's a spiritual problem. There's something going on in the spirit realm that the enemy is taking hold of, of an individual that is causing them to do harm to themselves. That is not God that is satan doing this. It's self-destruction, satanic possession, satanic placement, have a social predicament, and also self-destruction. This man is doing harm to himself. And verse five, but when Jesus comes on the scene like I mentioned before, there's now satanic subduing, verse six to 12. Seeing Jesus from a distance, he ran up, bowed down before him, shouting with a loud voice. He said, what business do we have to have with each other? Jesus, the Son of the Most High God, I implore you, I beg you, by God, do not torment me. For he had been saying to him, come out of the man, you unclean spirit. And what is your name? Verse nine, Jesus says, my name is Legion for we are many. And he began to implore him earnestly. Notice, he's begging again, not to send them out of the country. Now there was a large herd of swine feeding thereby on the mountain. Demons implored him. Notice, the demons implored him saying, send us. The demons is not actually in the original Greek, it's just implored him, but the plural form is right there. Send us into the swine. Notice, so that we may enter them. Send us that we may enter them. Jesus gave, notice them permission. Satan can do nothing without God's permission. We know that with the story of Job. We see that the story of the demonic act right now, the man with demons here in the garrisons. Jesus gave them permission and coming out the unclean spirits entered the swine and the herd rushed down, verse 13, rushed down the steep bank into the sea about 2,000 of them. So there's 2,000 swine, 6,000 demons. Notice, 6,000 demons, 2,000 swine. That's the ratio of what, three to one? Verse 14, and their herdsmen ran away and reported it in the city and in the country and the people came to see what it was that had happened. Verse 15, and they came to Jesus, notice verse 15, came to Jesus, observed the man who had been demon possessed, sitting down, clothing in his right mind, the very man who had had the legion and they became very frightened. We see him being satanically subdued. Satan is now being subdued by Jesus, verse 6 to 12, but we see a sovereign savior in verse 13. Notice, he gave them permission. We see a sovereign savior now on the scene. Jesus gave them permission and coming out, the unclean spirits entered the swine. They have to come out when Jesus tells them to come out. They have to come out. They must come out. But then lastly, verses 14 to 15, we see a stable posture, a stable posture, verses 14 to 15. The herdsmen ran away and reported it in the city and in the country and the people came to see what it was that had happened. Verse 15, they came to Jesus and observed the man who had been demon possessed, sitting down, clothed and in his right mind, the very man who had, notice who had had the legion and they became frightened. But I love this, the stable posture, notice what it produced. It produced him being clothed, excuse me, verse 15, sitting down, clothed and in his right mind. We see him clothed and he's now calm. We see him clothed and calm. He's not irrational, he's not wild, he's not unrestrained, he's not loose, he's not naked, he's clothed and he's calm. He's in his right mind. We see a stable posture. And the text says, and they became frightened, the people became frightened, I bet they did. All this time this man has been wilding out, running wild on the loose and now he's chilling. But notice who made him chill. Man couldn't do it, God had to do it. Jesus Christ, the son of God. So again, you see these points here, hoping this is making sense. Satanic possession, satanic placement, a social predicament, self-destructive, satanically seduced, a sovereign savior and now last of what we said, a stable posture. A stable posture. Our people are lacking this today, y'all. Let's look around our nation, let's look around in our communities and you can't tell me that we don't see demonic possession on display. People glorying in death and self-destruction, refusing to submit to a godly authority. All that stuff is satanic. All of it, dabbling in the demonic, dabbling into the occult and gothic wear and all kinds of deep, evil, wicked, dark stuff. Those things, brothers and sisters, are not of God. But when Jesus Christ comes on the scene, whatever was going wrong will be made right. It will be made right. Now, I'm gonna give you a little extra bonus, if you don't mind. I said verses one to 15, right? But I gotta go to verses 18 and 20 because I gotta show you something. Because this is what happens when a man or a woman now has their life changed by God. Verse 18, verse 18 of Mark chapter five. The text says, as he was getting into the boat, that's Jesus, the man who had been demon possessed was imploring him, was begging him now, that he might accompany him. Notice at first the demons were begging Jesus to send him away, but now that the demons have gone and Jesus has cast him out, this man who has now been delivered and set free from the demons is begging Jesus to go with him. It says the man who had been demon possessed was imploring him that he might accompany him. He wanted to be with Jesus. He wanted to go with Jesus. Verse 19, and he did not let him, but he said to him, go home to your people and report to them what great things the Lord has done for you and how he had mercy on you. And he went away and began to proclaim to endocapalus what great things Jesus had done for him and everyone was amazed. Let me tell you something. Let me show you something. I don't know if you see it in the text but it's right there. It should be right there in front of your eyeballs. This man, this man, this delivered man who used to live in the tombs does not wanna go back to what he used to do anymore. This man who was now set free does not want to be around dark things. He wants to be around the one who is the light of the world. This man who was demon possessed, who was controlled by demons, he does not have to have anybody control him because now God has him under control. This same man who was demon possessed, who was a minister society now wants to be a messenger to people in his world and in society as a whole. This man now who was once an outcast who was once on the outskirts is now wanting to do outreach. Oh, come on, y'all. This man now wants to do the work of the kingdom who was once in the kingdom of darkness. Now he's in the kingdom of God's beloved son in the light. This man now wants to do work. This man now wants to be a blessing to those that he encounters. That is what happens when a person has been changed by God. When a person has been changed by God, it's gonna show in how they live. It's gonna show in what they do and what they want to do for God and what they don't want to do for others. I'm not making it look at the text. As he was getting into the boat, the man who had been demon possessed was employing him that he might accompany him and he did not let him. Why? Because Jesus said, I got work for you to do, bro. I got work for you to do. He says, go home to your people and report to them what great things the Lord has done for you. You got a testimony, sir, and you need to tell it. You don't need nobody else to tell you a story. You need to tell these same people who didn't want to have nothing to do with you now. Now they can see that your life has changed. They're gonna be shocked now because he got clothes on. Come on. Go home to your people and report to them what great things the Lord has done for you and how he had mercy on you. Ladies and gentlemen, let me tell you something. God does not owe us mercy. God had mercy on this man. God showed mercy to this man. God displayed mercy to this man and he now wants people to see how God was merciful to him because God did a great thing in this man's life. There's some of us that are counting people out. There are some of us that have already checked out on people because we think they can't be reached. Well, because God hadn't gotten to them yet. You don't count out anybody who still has breath in their lungs. We're too quick to tap out on people. What if God were to tap out on us? The people that were in our life, what if God were to have the people that were praying for us to stop praying for us anymore? Now I understand there are times when we have to let people deal with the consequences of their own hearts. We understand that. But some of us are too quick to check out. We're too quick. It's easy for us to quit, but it's hard to persevere. But you know what? God has given us the spirit to endure. He's given us everything we need for life in God. And there's somebody that's gonna probably watch this live and watch this replay and you know what I'm talking about. There's a marriage that's probably already on the rocks. There's a relationship that's already on the rocks and you're ready to tap out. Jesus hadn't gotten to the scene yet. Give that situation to Jesus. And I'm talking about really give it to him because there's nothing impossible for God, nothing. This man now has a story to tell. This man who was a menace now has a message. And he's going out to all those cities that the capitalist, that means 10 cities. He has work to do. And so do you. So do I. Whatever God has for us to do, he wants us to do it because now that we have been shown mercy, what better way for a watching world to see how merciful God has been to people who didn't deserve mercy. I wanna close with some application and I believe it's important. When we're dealing with these situations and dealing with problems, number one, we need to give them to God. Too many of us are going to the world to deal with our issues instead of going to God. Listen, if God is good enough to save us, he's good enough to keep us. Give your problem to God. I'm not not trying to be super spiritual, nothing like that. No, when I say give it to God, I'm talking about use the resources and the means that God has ordained for us to get the help, the deliverance that we need. You don't need the world psychology to deal with your issues. The Bible says he sent his word and healed them. He says, he's giving us everything we need for life and godliness. Question is, do we believe that? And have we tapped in to that unlimited source that never runs out and never runs dry? Give it to God. Give it to God. That's all I gotta say. I just wanted to just to give that information to y'all. I don't want to minimize the fact of what we are dealing with in this society and this culture, but I'll tell you this much. We're definitely dealing with some demons. Your situation, give it to God. Your children, give it to God. All of them. Be mindful of the people that your children are around. I believe that we need to have discernment. We need to ask questions regarding our children. How was your day? What's been going on? Those kinds of things. The Bible says in Proverbs 20 verse five, the heart of a man is like a deep well, but a man of understanding, or a woman of understanding draws it out. So the heart is like a well. It takes time to dig and to drill and to dig deep and to find out what's really going on in our children's lives, in our family's lives. And sometimes all it takes is just a simple question. Sometimes that's all it takes is somebody just to ask us, hey, what's going on? This is what makes you do, you're doing good. We never know what that one question can do for a person. Sometimes people just want to know, do we care? Are we interested in what's going on in their lives? Are we just interested in what's going on in our own lives? Devote your situation to God. Be discerning regarding your children and what's going on in their lives. Be willing to discipline them, as well as disciple them, of course. Be willing to check them. Of course, age of preparation is in key, is in play. The Bible says the rod and reproof brings wisdom. The rod and reproof give wisdom. The rod and reproof, Proverbs 29 and 15. You don't just act as though you do all the talking, talking, talking, and you don't even take no action or you all taking action but never want to talk. It's abuse on both sides. It has to be balance. And I say this to myself when I deal with my wife and my children and our family. Lord, do with me the same way I deal with my wife and my children. Oh, that'll change how you deal with your spouse. That'll change how you deal with your children. Oh, it will. If we keep that prayer, man, before us. Lord, deal with me the same way I deal with my wife. Treat me the same way I treat my spouse. Treat me the same way I treat my children. Lord, be patient with me as I'm patient with my family. It'll it'll it'll change it'll change your life if you're sincere about it. If you're serious about it, it definitely will Absolutely devote Your situation whether it's your children your marriage devoting to God Learn to discern ask questions Have a balanced view of discipline With discussion the rod and reproof Talking and taking action there must be balance because anytime there's an imbalance on any either side. There's abuse But also I'll tell you this I'll tell you this when we deal with these demons and dealing with the demonic realm and all sort of kind of stuff as A parent you and I we have the authority to determine What kind of friends our children are going to have? Oh? Yeah, oh, yeah None do what none of you do you decide that you better be involved in that you better be involved in that You and I ought to decide Who are who our children's friends are going to be if they're under our roof? Because listen what they do and I tell my wife and I we tell our children this all the time What you do outside of those doors are gonna affect what happens inside these doors So you don't just live for yourself and do whatever you want to do hang wherever you want to hang with no No, no, no, no, no, and I ain't being spooky not a kind of stuff But my all of us are influenced by somebody good or bad Good or bad Your kid was like, you know all up and pep and and had life about themselves and now they hang with certain people Now they dislike now you see the attitude the mood change. Oh, no, no go back to the principles Mm-hmm, what's going on? I've been noticing build this person hang with this person or whatever whatever. I've noticed there's a change about you What's going on? What's happened? What's the problem and you and I have the authority to cut them off? Simple as that Because you don't want what they are dealing with to affect them and affects other people in your lives as well, too So no we as parents are to determine and decide who our children's friends are Me and my wife. We don't we don't do boyfriend and girlfriend You you you gonna date you gonna date the Mary we don't do that We do not do that we don't play them games. No, sir. No, ma'am not us So what we do we tell them Thank God you're like boys praise God for that especially nowadays. Thank you Lord however You gonna be with somebody we're gonna be involved Absolutely because you give the wrong person then it's gonna affect our house this stuff is serious y'all This stuff is serious The Bible says in 1 Corinthians 1533 bad company corrupts good character bad company bad company He who walks with wise men shall be wise Proper says but a companionship of fools suffer harm We're to watch the company that our children keep we're to determine into the side What kind of friends they have I need to I didn't know who their parents are all that stuff Yep, I make no apologies for that and neither should you so Hopefully that makes sense But that's that's what I wanted to share with you all Let me know if let me know what you think about this this live.
