Meet the Panelists & Conspiracy Theories Overview
00:01:19
Speaker
All right. Hello, everybody. Welcome to Fatherhood Friday. We're glad you're here. All 20 of you. Hey, we're up to 20. Special shout out to Amy, who's out there listening. We sure appreciate your faithful support.
00:01:32
Speaker
So we're glad to be with you here today on Fatherhood Friday. I've got Matt Stewart here with me. I've got Nate Eisner and we've got Tony Russell. And we are excited to share a little bit with you about conspiracy theories. Ooh.
00:01:49
Speaker
Nate is sporting his Bigfoot hat um that he got from Bigfoot, I heard. The world is not just stuff, man. Yeah. so But Tony, ah get light lay the table for us here and set the table for this very fun and interesting and yet really important topic about conspiracies.
Aliens and Faith: A Conspiracy or Reality?
00:02:10
Speaker
Sure thing. It is a well known well known amongst the crew here that I am the kind conspiracy guy amongst us. because You're the conspiracy king, Tony. yeah conspiracys right The hardest thing about trying to discuss conspiracy theories is trying to pick out which one because most of them are true.
00:02:30
Speaker
But one of them that I think is increasingly interesting and getting more interesting is the subject of aliens and whether or not aliens are real and their aliens are going to visit. what What would that mean to the Christian faith if an alien spacecraft showed up with people from another planet?
00:02:46
Speaker
I like to have you know, intellectual ah debates with myself, and you know, about that particular topic from time to time. But one of the things that's making it really interesting right now is the presence of a weird comet that's come through our solar system lately called 3I Atlas.
00:03:02
Speaker
It's named that because it's the third object that's been detected that's come from outside of our solar system, picked up by the Atlas Observatory. And it's displaying all types all types of characteristics that are not typical of comets.
00:03:17
Speaker
the The most significantly weird one is that when comets approach the sun, they typically start to sublimate and outgas where they start to form a tail that's blown behind them because of the radiation of the sun.
00:03:32
Speaker
But for some reason, this particular comet has a consistent habit of outgassing towards the sun, almost as though it's expelling exhaust. They've never seen this happen in nature ever before.
00:03:43
Speaker
This particular comet can blast a tail, a cometary tail, towards the sun. They don't have any particular idea why. Another thing that's interesting about this particular comet is they have the capacity to determine the chemical makeup of the outgas material itself.
The Mystery of Comet 3I Atlas
00:04:00
Speaker
When it's come out coming out of these comets, this thing has very, very little water. It doesn't sublimate hardly any water. Most of its sublimation is nickel gas, which contains no iron.
00:04:13
Speaker
which or very little iron, which is also extraordinarily rare because that doesn't happen in nature either. That happens in foundries where nickel is refined. And so there's ah a huge group of people out there that think this may be a craft of some kind that's meticulously navigating its way through our solar system to to make contact with certain planets at certain times to be able to study them and perhaps might even be doing so to us.
00:04:38
Speaker
So there are four kind of main elements vectors of thought on this. There's the people that believe absolutely nothing is happening. This is just a comment and the loony bins on the internet are making it a lot of hay out of nothing.
00:04:52
Speaker
I'm probably mostly in that group. There's a small group out there that believes that there is something going on and the powers that be are making a lot of hay out of nothing to try to hide what's going on because they don't have any idea how to control the information or control what it is.
00:05:08
Speaker
And if you know what's going on, then you know you'll be scared to death and stock markets will crash. And then there's the idea that they do know what's going on. They're communicating with these beings. They've been able to use CERN to be able to connect some sort of interdimensional communication system back and forth with the occupants of 3I Atlas.
00:05:25
Speaker
Remote viewers have been able to communicate with these beings and figure out that they're here for peace and all kinds of craziness that goes around rabbi hole as well. And then there's, of course, the Christian view says, I don't care. Jesus is coming sometime.
Faith and Alien Life: A Debate
00:05:37
Speaker
So the... the The question I would like to throw around to each of you guys is what would be what you would believe to be the most compelling argument, not necessarily for aliens, but that there's something greater than what our government or what science can particularly explain is going on out there.
00:05:57
Speaker
And what would you what would happen to your faith if this did turn out to be an alien crew that showed up on the White House lawn and demanded Big Macs with ah with Donald Trump? What would you do?
00:06:12
Speaker
Well, I don't know. i don't I don't know who wants to start this conversation, but there's the grenade. Go ahead and jump on it. i feel like every time I jump in and give my two cents, i always reference something that I've listened to or watched or read. just I'll continue in that same light. and Actually, I think I referenced this in our paranormal episode, but i'll reference it again.
00:06:31
Speaker
Michael Heiser has an awesome documentary on aliens. You can look it up, type in Michael Heiser aliens, and it's like an hour-long documentary. Awesome stuff. We can get into that later. But he is an interesting guy because you know we've referenced his work before, theologian, PhD, linguist, and everything. But um i'm not gonna I'm definitely not going to be able to represent his his view on this, but he has some interesting thoughts on why if aliens were to show up, it really isn't a crisis for the Christian faith.
00:07:02
Speaker
I think he kind of gets that more so, and again, watch it and tell me I'm wrong, because i again, um'm I'm I'm going to represent his his views well here because that um I just haven't watched his documentary in a while. But if I'm remembering correctly, it's that even though Scripture does not inherently say that God created aliens, there's also nothing in it that says he inherently did it. And so you know just because he created humanity… there's nothing implying that he did just because it doesn't imply or just because it doesn't say that he did it and doesn't necessarily mean that he did.
00:07:36
Speaker
But if he did, you know, it's not necessarily a problem because Jesus died for humanity. He didn't necessarily die for aliens if God decided to create aliens on some other planet. So it's, there's some where you got to play around with the philosophy there and you're answering existential questions. But he's he said it in his scholarly PhD voice, but that's a great, Great documentary there. Very entertaining. He talks a lot about, and i don't know if you want to get into this now or later, but he had some interesting stuff on Roswell, New Mexico, since that's obviously where we think of when we think of aliens. But um that I remember a lot more than the ah theological part, but I'll let y'all go.
00:08:16
Speaker
I think that- would you witness to the aliens? a Witness to them? ah No, I mean, i think that the Bible's pretty clear. that ah human beings have a sin nature given to us by Adam, who was a human being. yeah um And so, you know, the the doctrines of grace and and salvation and and redemption, Jesus was was incarnated as a man. yes He wasn't incarnated as some extraterrestrial being.
00:08:46
Speaker
So he is human in addition to being God. Still today, he's alive, got a living body. So ah if if aliens showed up, I think I would probably say C.S. Lewis was definitely a prophet because he wrote about it.
00:09:06
Speaker
ah He has a series called The Space Trilogy in which he discusses the possibility of life on other planets and how those life forms could fit into a biblical framework. He sort of sets the context of the Bible and of God in a different way without ever contradicting scripture um or making God into something he isn't. He just imagines a different way to see the cosmos and if it included other people or other beings, how they would relate to this almighty being and how we relate to him and the things that happen here um they see differently on Mars and Venus and
Government UFO Admissions and Public Reaction
00:09:49
Speaker
stuff. So I think I would probably fall into that category if aliens showed up, but um
00:09:54
Speaker
the The most intriguing part about aliens to me is that the United States government has now officially had testimony where a guy basically said, yeah, Roswell, they were dissecting ah ah an extraterrestrial being. yeah we don't We don't know what happened. They basically admitted everything that when I was growing up was the kooky people, the crazy go nuts that that thought something happened in Roswell, New Mexico.
00:10:18
Speaker
The government in in in swore it in testimony. The guy was... Committee perjury if he's lying. He said, yep, we were dissecting aliens. We found a craft. it's It seemed to be from another planet. and And it's like it was almost a no story. Like nobody talked about it hardly. And I'm like, yeah what is happening in the world right now where the government just admitted that Roswell's real and aliens exist?
00:10:42
Speaker
ah And nobody cared. It was so weird. That was weird thing to me. NASA came out too a few months back and said they found bacterial life on Mars essentially. They did? Possilized bacterial life. See, I didn't even even hear about that.
00:10:58
Speaker
Yeah, it was such a non-story. know I don't get it, but I don't know. yeah Matt, would you teach the aliens how to play football?
00:11:10
Speaker
No. I would just say stay away, they're demons. Yes! And that's really, honestly, Matt, I think that's That's probably a more realistic side to all this. yeah I would agree, and i I'll tell you why you in a minute.
00:11:25
Speaker
Tell us right now. yeah yeah else right now under but A lot of it is in keeping with your logic that you presented, Jared, that you know humanity is the only beings that we know of in Scripture that are created in the image likeness of God.
00:11:38
Speaker
That's not to say that nothing else is, but that we know explicitly that humans are. And for me, it would be If aliens are coming, I would want to know what their intent was and what their
Interdimensional Beings and Scientific Discovery
00:11:50
Speaker
year. They came out and said, hey, Christ is king, by the way.
00:11:53
Speaker
We're actually part of the angelic choir. And this is the vehicle God made for us to travel between the stars to make sure that nature stays in order. That would be awesome. i would I would have no problem believing that these are these are real creatures.
00:12:06
Speaker
But if something comes down and says, hey, by the way, did you know that Jesus is a hoax? And we're here to make sure that you believe in the one true God of yourself. then 100% it's a demonic inspiration. but And the the whole thing is like the when it comes down to aliens, it makes no hill of beans to me one way or the other, whether or not they're real or not real.
00:12:28
Speaker
ah really I really couldn't care less. I believe in Christian faith. We believe already in interdimensional beings. There's all kinds of passages in scriptures of angels walking into the material world and affecting it in some kind of way. In material people being called out into the spiritual realm to be able to discern and understand what's going on in the spiritual realm.
00:12:49
Speaker
Ezekiel trying to explain the mechanism of God's throne room is unbelievable and incomprehensible almost to try to figure out what in the world is he even looking at. I was just reading today a Elisha bringing his servant because they thought they were surrounded by the Syrians and praying that God would open his eyes to see who was really there.
00:13:09
Speaker
And the the armies of the Lord and their chariots of fire are standing behind them ready to, strike them all with blindness. Like there's all kinds of stuff already that we as Christians believe or claim we believe that happens beyond what's material in the realms around us. I do think there will come a time when when science advances well enough where we'll be able to capture glimpses of the immaterial world and maybe be glimpses of the spiritual domain.
00:13:37
Speaker
I think all of it will prove to the expanse of God's kingdom. if If things like this, like this the stupid three-eye atlas or the Roswell aliens or whatever, if there's more and more and more of that evidence comes out, I think you're going to find materially one or two things.
00:13:54
Speaker
One, they're not aliens. They didn't come from some foreign space. They came from a space between spaces. They came from an inner interdimensional space. And they're either part of the demonic armies that are here to confuse and corrupt humanity, or they're a part of the kingdom of God.
00:14:09
Speaker
And i don't believe those are the ones that we're going to capture. I don't think those are the ones that are crashing their planes or crashing whatever it is that they're driving in. i I don't think that they all actually drive in chariots of fire. I think that was probably the best way they could describe what was going on at the time.
00:14:24
Speaker
But do they have mechanisms and technology that allows them to move in ways that we couldn't potentially comprehend here in the material world? Absolutely they do. We know the for sure that God's throne room does. i would imagine that he has equipped his armies with all kinds of things.
00:14:40
Speaker
that manifest themselves in various different ways to us here in the material that we just don't have a way to describe or adequate adequately really capture in the way that we communicate with one another. So it's easy to prey on the unknown and turn that into fear or turn that into some mechanism of control or some sort of confusion so that you can throw in whatever kind of ideology you want or throw in whatever kind of you know layers of nonsense people are excited to believe in.
00:15:07
Speaker
But ultimately, I don't believe that there's a very big difference between what Christians believe in the interdimensional versus, I mean, like what Christians believe in the spiritual realm versus what new conspiracy scientists they are trying to say is coming in from the interdimensional planes or from all these different places out there to try to come in and connect with humanity. It's the same thing with like DMT and some of these drug induced encounters where you can have people that can take specific drugs, sit in a circle and all experience the same hallucinations.
00:15:39
Speaker
I believe that that's probably the same thing, probably a connection into some of the demonic. I think that there's specific reasons why the Bible forbids that and tells us to be to stay clear of those types of participations because there there are likely demonic forces out there and gateways that demons know of that God knows of, too.
00:15:59
Speaker
But demons would use to be able to try to capture hearts and capture capacity inside of humanity based off of our our willingness to try to reach out and access it. But As far as the 3i Atlas thing is, I think it's probably a
Challenging Scientific Understanding with 3I Atlas
00:16:12
Speaker
comet.
00:16:12
Speaker
The people that are looking at it are saying, well, if it is a comet, then it's older than our solar system itself, and it's billions and billions of years old. I believe that's probably also true, but that's because I believe time is completely relative.
00:16:24
Speaker
I don't believe that the time outside of the Earth matters, and I think that as God was hanging the universe yeah in the six days that it took place here on Earth, it could have been any expansive time out there, and it wouldn't have made a difference. the We know for certain That time in the universe doesn't exist at the same rate everywhere. Time travels faster. the closer you get to gravity wells like the sun or a black hole.
00:16:47
Speaker
So imagine a gravity well like God himself stepping into his own creation amongst the rules and laws he had just hung the universe upon and then throwing everything from his mouth. The things that came out first and traveled the furthest would probably appeal or older to us, even though they were the same age technically from you know, gauging from the sea the sense of time. So I think something like this is probably more than anything else, an opportunity that God has given humanity to see just a little bit further than we ever had before into the great expanse that he's created and to try to learn as much as we can from that and challenge maybe some of our physics and some of our understanding of the universe, some of the ways that we map out and and determine how these comets are supposed to behave and even how our own propulsion is supposed to behave.
00:17:30
Speaker
But I don't think it's aliens coming to say hi. If it is aliens coming to say hi, I'm not going to be super enthusiastic about it until they hail Christ as king. Hey, guys, i have I have a quick question for you.

Humorous Conspiracy Theories
00:19:26
Speaker
So my question is, what would you say is the funniest thing conspiracy theory that you just think is hilarious. I just want on each of you to take that question and run with it. The 2020 election was fair. yeah um That's
00:19:51
Speaker
Funniest conspiracy, man. That just makes you go, oh, wow, that is so silly. Or something funny. For me, it's the one about that birds aren't real.
00:20:04
Speaker
just I think that's so incredibly far-fetched. Birds aren't to replace their batteries once in a while, otherwise they they go nuts. oh yeah No, that's why they land on power lines so they can charge. See, that's what saying. it's It's ripe for great jokes.
00:20:23
Speaker
So um I don't do conspiracy theories a whole lot. I just don't know many, but You're saying birds, like little things with wings that fly around outside are not real. Yeah, they're not real. I'm not saying that, but some people believe that they are fake. You ever try to eat one without getting the battery?
00:20:40
Speaker
Of course they're not real.
00:20:43
Speaker
I don't understand exactly. amy i don't understand all the ins and outs of it, but it's we just had pretty far-fetched. We just had fall turkey season, and I'm telling you, i saw turkeys in my yard every day.
00:20:55
Speaker
for a month and the day turkey season rolled rolled around ah they they all disappeared and for the two weeks that it was fall turkey season not one turkey came away you can't tell me that was not programmed into them on well they're too expensive to the government to just let them be shot at you know that's funny no but man that's a see i don't know about funny ones like So I get the spirit of your question because that is a goofy one.
00:21:25
Speaker
oh I really hope that this was – I'm sure this was satire, but I saw a great video the other day, this guy talking about this conspiracy with the people that invented the Rubik's Cube. don't know if you all seen that video floating around. yeah Yeah, basically every year since the Rubik's Cube was invented, people have been solving it faster and faster, and eventually it's going to go into negative times. And they're basically going to use this Rubik's Cube to create a time machine so that they can go back in time and collect all the Rubik's Cubes that were created previously. And they're going sell them again at 100% profit. And it was – That sounds like a Doctor Who episode to me.
00:22:06
Speaker
I can tell you, if if I went back in time, the number one thing i would do is sell Rubik's Cubes. That's how I would capitalize on that monumental event. Oh, yeah, because that's the only thing a time machine would be helpful to you for.
00:22:20
Speaker
Hey, you want some funny – man, ah okay, I'll i'll throw some some guardrails on this, you know. do this at your own risk because the guy's got, he's just insane. But just look up any clip of Alex Jones on Joe Rogan going off on a tangent. And man, you're going to get sick because that is, you know, Alex Jones has no guardrails anyways, but Alex Jones on Joe Rogan, it's like he has license to just take it all the way, man. He, is dude, there's some funny stuff there.
00:22:51
Speaker
But again, do that at your own risk. I'd, I think he's probably only about 75% right, but that's what makes it funny. that's what So probably Matt, to say.
00:23:05
Speaker
I'll say I just um again, I pulled up um chat GPT and asked it some some of the the funny um conspiracy theories. First one is the moon is made of cheese.
00:23:18
Speaker
um The Earth is hollow. It has a sun inside. um Another one is Finland does not exist.
00:23:31
Speaker
It says it was invented by Japan and the Soviet Union during Cold War so Japan could secretly fish in the Baltic Sea. um birds or Birds aren't real. That was the next one.
00:23:43
Speaker
Cows are part of a government plot.
00:23:46
Speaker
Elvis is still alive. Oh, yeah. if it's not for conspiracy That's true. yeah And the Denver Airport is the Illuminati headquarters. Of course it is.
00:23:59
Speaker
So that one's actually probably, probably real money real. So I guess there's, the there's, there's, I know at some point we probably want to get to the ones that we think are true.
Governments and Conspiracy Theories as Distractions
00:24:11
Speaker
But let me, but I guess I can throw one out that I think is probably true and is kind of a gateway into something else that I want to talk about. um I think a lot of conspiracies, when you look at, you know, when you can put a name to them and you can give a story and you can give a full in-depth explanation as to, hey, this is the conspiracy. I think the main conspiracy behind all that is that our government knows that people are going to eat it up and they're going to use that as distraction to then control it in a different way. So the prime example of that, we've been talking about the Roswell thing. The reason that they kept Roswell alive for so long, and there's papers on this, is Project Paperclip. And basically the idea that alien life form crashed in the the New Mexico desert was a perfect cover up for the fact that we had Nazi scientists working in the country. after World War II. And so right there, you've got this awesome distraction that people, it's it's sexy and it's cool and it's got all the the bells and whistles that are gonna get people talking and the government knows that people are gonna eat it up and so they're gonna use that as a coverup. I think that's probably where most of these conspiracies come from. Would not surprise me in the slightest if the CIA creates a lot of these. But yeah, so I think that's probably the main conspiracy.
00:25:34
Speaker
um I want to also get into the fact that you know what happens if all these are true? What can we do about it?
00:25:45
Speaker
Very little. And that is a lesson that I've had to learn over the last couple years. Not that you bury your head in the sand with what's going on. We we joke about guys like Alex Jones. um I like the guy. I've listened to him on – I mean obviously he says some stuff that's crazy and funny, and he goes – On tangents and stuff, and he's entertaining. um you know He's also not wrong about a lot of the stuff he talks about, but what I've had to learn is how to separate what I need to worry about and what what I don't need to fear, what I don't need to have anxiety on, and yeah oh yeah like what can I actually do about these things.
Balancing Personal Life with Global Events
00:26:26
Speaker
And there's ah there's an excellent – I don't think he termed the the quote or he – don't think he coined the quote. There's a guy named Justin Rhodes. He's in the the homestead community. He's definitely probably but the farthest thing from a conspiracy theorist you'll find as far as I know. At least he just doesn't talk about it on his YouTube channel.
00:26:40
Speaker
um But in terms of whatever is going on out in the world, whatever war is going on, whatever the price of gas is going you know is is doing, whoever is in the White House, what can you do about it? Well, you can't do a thing about it, but you can go out in your backyard and can play in a garden.
00:26:54
Speaker
Those are the things that you can't control. And so what are you doing with your domain? What are you doing with with the world that God has given you? What are you doing with the the things in your life that God has given you to control? So I think that's the biggest question about – I love conspiracies. I love talking about them. But genuinely at the end of the day, i know it's very easy for me to get nervous talking about these things. It's very easy for me to listen to guys like Alex Jones or listen to an InfoWars broadcasts.
00:27:20
Speaker
um And or even just hear are some of the crap that's spewed on mainstream news media and say, well, yeah, we we knew about that five years ago. you know it Now it's making its way.
00:27:31
Speaker
I mean, I can look at that stuff all day. I remember the 2020 election and just being sick to my stomach. you know I had a newborn baby girl and thinking like, oh, my gosh, what in the world are we going to do? Man, there's nothing I could have done about it.
00:27:44
Speaker
I got out there. I voted. ah I spread information as best I could. That is all I could do. in terms of the results of the election. But what I could do is the things in my life, you know be frugal with my finances, make sure that I'm right with the Lord, make sure that I'm leading my family to be right with the Lord, telling others around me about Jesus and you know having a contingency plan, making sure I'm stocked up on bullets and water bottles, those kind of things. you know Control the areas that you can control yeah because you can't control what other people could do You can't control what the government does. And yeah, I think there's a – man, I don't know where it is. It's in – if it's in a Ecclesiastes or Proverbs.
00:28:28
Speaker
But somewhere in the Bible where it talks about you know don't be caught up in conspiracies. It literally says don't get caught up in conspiracies, and I'm totally – that's the Nate Eisner version, the Nate Eisner translation because that's a total
Biblical Perspective on Conspiracies
00:28:39
Speaker
paraphrase. but Speaking of, you know, we know that the Bible speaks to conspiracy as well, because in the Gospels, it says that, the you know, the the Jewish leaders, you know, spread the word that the disciples came and stole the body of Christ. And that was the message they paid them to do that. So literally, there's, you know, there's that was the government, you know, authority of the day, they were covering up the resurrection of Christ. So we, you know, the Bible speaks to both sides of it. It exists, but it also says don't don't get worried about it. So.
00:29:08
Speaker
I think the Pharisees actually wrote the Da Vinci code and, and just dan bra here we go Tony, we're running hot on time here, guys. But Tony, what's a conspiracy theory that you think is probably true?
00:29:25
Speaker
It's probably true. um
00:29:29
Speaker
Gosh, the, I don't know of them that are still conspiracies. I had a ton about nine, there were nine, nine, 11. I'm sorry. The COVID thing, every conspiracy theory I thought about COVID turned out to actually be true.
Elite Control and Governmental Cover-ups
00:29:41
Speaker
um i I think, um so there's there's hot button topic right now is that there's a small cabal of elite pedophiles that basically run the world.
00:29:53
Speaker
I think that's probably true. ah Really? ah yeah I think that's probably, i think the the Epstein files are are deeply related to a small power structure.
00:30:04
Speaker
that are probably run by our CIA and other governmental intelligence agencies out there that are using it as a blackmail mechanism to control the leadership of the world, including Trump to some degree.
00:30:17
Speaker
I think that he he backed off the Epstein files, not for his own sake, but because of people that he knew and cared about that could be implicated that were probably innocent, but could still look fairly guilty.
00:30:29
Speaker
If those files came forward without a correct context that he would not have been able to provide. So I don't know. i I think that there's, there are mechanisms out there inside of our government, inside of our deep state, inside of the higher echelons of power beyond what voters have access to that pretty much run the world.
00:30:51
Speaker
And, you know, Jesus will come back and smash their teeth in one day and it'll be awesome to see. So. Yep. i think um I think there's more to it than that than that goober that shot at Trump and hit his ear.
00:31:05
Speaker
he yeah wasn't That wasn't all him. No, for sure. I think maybe there were even other shots. They pinged that guy's phone in FBI training locations like two months before.
00:31:18
Speaker
Yeah, yeah. yeah And then he was seriously cremated like 48 hours later with no... and yeah The rooftop was like hosed down and sanitized the day after.
00:31:29
Speaker
so no forensic collections of evidence or anything. Yeah, that's very skittish. I think that was a – to me, i think that the CIA is responsible for killing JFK.
00:31:43
Speaker
And I think that they that that at that moment in Butler, Pennsylvania was going to be another JFK moment. Except that God had other plans and God decided to move his head and move the bullet or something, move his head just out of the way. Because think you guys are right on it. I think the government was, I think someone in the CIA or someone pulling strings for the CIA. And I don't even think it was President Biden.
00:32:10
Speaker
I think other people like you're talking about, Tony, globalists and other powerful people. Mostly reptiles. We're pulling those strings. They might be reptiles. They're reptiles in character, at least. Even if they're not actually genetically a reptile. I don't believe that one.
00:32:25
Speaker
No, they're interdimensional goblins. They're a reptilian race. And sometimes they lose their ability to control their shape-shifting abilities on TV and you can see them. so yeah Well, guys, thank you so much.
00:32:38
Speaker
This has been a really ah fun time and a good discussion.
Conclusion: Faith and Discernment in a Conspiratorial World
00:32:41
Speaker
um And I think that, Nate, you gave us a good A good lesson to take away from all this discussion. What can we do about some of these things? Not a lot, but we can still tell people about Jesus and we can still believe that Christ is king and there will be no king but him. And he will come back one day and he'll either smash the fangs or the teeth of all the bad guys. Yeah.
00:33:05
Speaker
Extra, extra little, little tidbit there for the i don't know what this has to do with eschatology or what what systematic that would fit into. But I learned this this week on a little YouTube reel that popped up. There is a fault line that runs directly beneath the Mount of Olives. And so when it talks about how Jesus is going to touch down and the Mount of Olives will be split in two. There you go. We now have geological evidence for that. Geological evidence. And I'm looking forward to that day. That's going to be good. Tomorrow will be good.
00:33:35
Speaker
Yep. That's right. Yep. Well, ah guys, let's ah let's be let's be vigilant. Let's ah have a good time laughing and yet also be aware of the circle of influence that we have.
00:33:50
Speaker
Let's be understanding the times. Let's practice discernment. Not everything that people say is what's really happening is actually true. We need to have some biblical discernment, especially in these days when so many people are being led astray. into some really crazy things um and really damaging the name and the reputation of Christ when they say, oh I'm a Christian, but I also believe the earth is flat. No, that's that's dangerous, dangerous ideology. So, all right, well, guys. Be aware that this entire video was created by Sora AI.
00:34:26
