What this episode covers

00:01 You know what gets me about like one of the last callers we had is when you tell people, say people, say, you know what you need? You need Jesus. You have led such a horrible life, you've been doing such bad things, you need Jesus. 00:22 And then the person says, you know what, you're right. I do need Jesus. I'm going to repent. I'm going to ask Jesus to come into my life, be my Lord and Savior, and I'm going to turn my life around. And then they do that. And then they come back to that person and say, thank you so much. I've done as you recommended. I've found Jesus. Yeah, but you know what? You're still that guy I knew. And I don't trust you. 00:53 What? What? Are you kidding me? Is that the way we're supposed to act? Is that the way we're supposed to react instead of rejoicing and saying, look, look what happened here. Another life changed. Hallelujah. Which is what we should do. 01:19 Now we go, no, no, no, yeah, whatever. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, you're a Christian now? I bet you're not as Christian as I am. I bet I'm a much better Christian than you are. I look down upon you. 01:38 Okay. That's it. That's why when we read this, and you know what, and even earlier today, and I didn't mention it, but like earlier today, I talked about this story about, well, here, I'll put this up there for, this is from Fox News. Take a listen to this. Growing number of young men ages 18 to 29 are embracing faith. 42 % say religion is very important in their lives. That is a 14 % increase 02:07 from just the previous year and I saw it firsthand while visiting St. Joe's Church here in New York City. 02:17 42 % of young men ages 18 to 29 are now saying that faith in God is very important to them. 02:30 That is a huge jump from just last year. In fact, it's up 14 % over last year. 02:38 Now here's, all right, now listen. You got these young men, these Gen Zers, whatever it is, they've been told their whole lives that they just by existing, 02:53 were toxic. Just because they were male, they were toxic. They got no love from the world. The world hated them. And then they found something better. They found religion. I don't like that word. I don't like religion. Let's put it this way. They found faith in God. And not only did they find faith in God, 03:21 They're acting on them. 03:25 I haven't had people over on the text line say, yeah, yeah, yeah, let's see how that works out. Yeah, I I am good, right? That's not the way we're supposed to be. It really isn't. Not as a society. Well, not as a faith. We're not supposed to. But unfortunately, it does happen. Let's go to Alan in Greenville. Alan, welcome. How you doing? I'm good, what's up, man? oh 03:53 want to touch base on what you were discussing with that gentleman that called in a while ago. Yeah. And I'm going to kind of take both sides. I believe everything that you just said, but I called you one time before about David Pasco switching parties. Yeah. And I said, my worry is that he switched parties too soon. And I don't know if I can really. 04:21 but getting back to uh Park Lynch. 04:26 How many times did you see photo ops of Bill and Hillary walking to the National Chapel carrying a Bible? It used to make me sick. um getting back to the switching parties part, David Beasley claimed that he got saved and he was a changed man and he ran around from church to church to church saying vote for me, I'm not the same person. 04:53 But once he got in office, he was the same Democrat he always was. So I believe, you know, when the Lord changes you, he changes you. But not everybody that claims to be a Christian is a Christian. All right. Well, let me ask you something. Let me ask some real quick, Alan. have a sister-in-law that I have my doubts about. OK, let me ask you something. How old are you? I'll be 70 in September. You're 70 years old?
