Sons of Liberty Radio with Bradlee Dean Called to Cry Aloud: Jeremiah, the Prophets, and America's Day of Judgment Bradlee Dean opens a live Sunday church service devoted to the biblical prophets, moving from Jeremiah's warnings to Judah into a wide-ranging call for America to repent, before taking calls from listeners Bob and Margie. A Sunday Service Built Around the Prophets Bradlee Dean opens the live Sunday broadcast from Sons of Liberty Radio's home church service, greeting his "church family" and previewing a message on the biblical prophets. The hour begins with worship songs, including a rendition performed by his wife and son, while he explains he is pacing the service to let latecomers arrive. Dean grounds his topic in 1 Corinthians 12:28, arguing that apostles and prophets are named first in the order of the church yet are the roles most ostracized in American Christianity today. He turns to Hosea 6:5 to describe the prophet's function as one of mercy rather than judgment, saying the Lord "hews" people through prophetic rebuke to expose sin and drive them toward repentance before a holy God. He frames the entire service as an attempt to restore a role he believes the modern American church has abandoned. Moses, the Law, and the Case Against Cessationism Dean spends a long stretch making a doctrinal case that Moses and the law of God are not, as he says some teach, aligned with "the accuser" of Revelation 12. He walks through Isaiah 8:20 and John 5 to argue that the law's purpose is to convict and lead people to Christ, then draws a sharp line between ceremonial law, which he says ended at the cross, and moral law, which he insists still stands. He directs much of this argument against "cessationists," those who believe prophecy ended with the apostles, countering that God "changes not." To prove his point he runs through New Testament figures he calls prophets: Agabus, who foretold a famine under Claudius; John the Baptist; Barnabas, Simeon, Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen at Antioch; Philip's four daughters; and Judas and Silas, arguing that prophecy belongs to the whole church, not a select few. Election, Predestination, and Jeremiah's Calling Dean pivots to defend the doctrines of election and predestination, complaining that listeners tolerate references to John Wesley, Charles Spurgeon, and William and Catherine Booth without objection but bristle the moment he mentions election, mislabeling it "Calvinism" when he says it is simply scripture inspired by the Holy Ghost through Paul. He rejects all denominational identity, whether Baptist, Lutheran, Wesleyan, or Calvinist, insisting Christians should have "the same mind, the same heart." From there he turns to Jeremiah chapter 1, reading aloud that God tells the prophet, "Before I formed thee in the belly, I knew thee," and ordained him to the nations before birth. He highlights Jeremiah's protest that he is only a child, and God's reply commanding him to speak without fear, sent "to root out, to pull down, to destroy, to throw down, to build, and to plant," which Dean calls the pattern of true preaching today. Sports as Idols and a Fair-Booth Ministry Applying Jeremiah's charge that Israel exchanged its God for "broken cisterns," Dean argues modern Americans have made false gods of professional sports, playing a video clip of a preacher warning churches against Super Bowl parties and mocking fans who paint their faces for games while ignoring the gospel. He connects this to his ministry's twentieth year at the Minnesota State Fair, where his family's booth sits beside a Black Lives Matter table. He describes buying cookies and approaching four boys from North Minneapolis, sharing his own upbringing there and giving them gospel tracts, then befriending the Black Lives Matter volunteer, who he says now hands out more tracts than anyone. He recounts his son calling the neighboring booth "our best friends," using the story to argue that churchgoers who call themselves self-righteous exempt themselves from reaching people others avoid, and holds up his pamphlet "Children of the Apostate" as part of that outreach. Judgment, Government, and Contemporary Targets Returning to Jeremiah's warnings of national judgment, Dean widens the message into current events, describing videos of Muslim demonstrators in Canada and recalling a German chancellor's welcome of migrants into Germany, which he says followed those nations first tolerating homosexuality. He accuses federal and state officials of working with a "United Nations agenda" and being "installed" rather than elected, and cites Massachusetts and Virginia measures he characterizes as permitting infanticide, plus what he calls abortion coupons in Orlando. He recounts a case of two 14-year-old girls he says were raped for nine hours and murdered by men with dozens of prior convictions, using it to argue that "soft judges produce hardened criminals" and that biblical, publicly enforced justice under Numbers 35 would deter such crimes. He also renews unproven allegations that Pastor Greg Laurie faces child-trafficking accusations tied to his continued appearances at Turning Point USA events, presenting these as evidence that megachurch culture has been compromised. Callers, Closing Appeals, and Next Steps Dean opens the phone lines, and caller Bob from Texas mentions an upcoming Constitution Day appearance by "Alex Newman" in McKinney and confirms Dean sent him a short program for Constitution Week aimed at 100,000 schools, joking about needing more highlighter tape for his Bible. Caller Margie, tearful, thanks the ministry for saving her life and urges other listeners to give, prompting Dean to credit the Holy Spirit rather than himself and to warn against "fake revivals." He closes by holding up his books "Face Off," the comic "Junkyard Prophet," and the pamphlet "Children of the Apostate," saying he hands out hundreds weekly at no cost, and asks listeners to become monthly "sons and daughters of liberty" rather than one-time or controlling donors. He gives mailing and website details for Sons of Liberty Radio and signs off asking to be judged "by my fruit," ending the three-hour broadcast until the next service.
