Jim Bakker Show - Are Conservatives Being Targeted By The Media? - Revelation In The News Aired: 2017-04-29 Duration: 27:39 === Conservatives Under Siege (15:05) === [00:00:10] Welcome to Revelation in the News. [00:00:13] This is probably one of the biggest news days in history. [00:00:17] Things are breaking all over the place. [00:00:19] But Mondo, you have what I think is probably the most important news story to the church world. [00:00:25] Absolutely, Pastor. [00:00:25] Sean Hannity this week talked about conservatives being targeted to be shut down from every angle possible. [00:00:33] This affects the church today. [00:00:36] John, what do you think about O'Reilly being fired? [00:00:39] You know, I think that's the beginning of them going down and picking different targets that speak out that they want to try and silence. [00:00:46] He's probably the strongest voice, conservative voice in the world. [00:00:51] Yes. [00:00:51] And yet they were able to wipe him out. [00:00:54] What do you think about this today? [00:00:56] I think it's a scary place to be when you have groups of people that are going after news commentators. [00:01:04] You know, it's unbelievable to me. [00:01:07] You go to one of the great colleges of the world. [00:01:09] I do. [00:01:10] And I know your school. [00:01:12] Mondo, you just spoke at that college. [00:01:14] This morning I had the privilege to speak at their chapel service. [00:01:17] You met with the president. [00:01:18] You met with the president of the school. [00:01:19] He watches our show. [00:01:20] He's thankful that we're standing for what we believe in. [00:01:23] And that's what the school stands for. [00:01:25] They teach. [00:01:26] My God, I want to weep almost. [00:01:29] Because freedom of speech has left America. [00:01:33] What happened to Ann Coulter? [00:01:36] She got shut down by protesters that they don't want any conservatives coming to speak. [00:01:42] And this is a school that promoted free speech. [00:01:46] It's nonsense. [00:01:47] They plan to shut up every conservative and Christian voice in America. [00:01:55] Stay tuned today because we're going to prove to you what's going on. [00:01:59] And it's dangerous. [00:02:01] It's as dangerous as an atomic bomb going off in America. [00:02:07] Yes, an atomic bomb would be a horrible, hideous thing, but taking away yours and my freedom of speech and freedom of religion. [00:02:16] This is where we are right now. [00:02:18] What do you want to do for this? [00:02:19] I want to show you a video from Sean Hannity that he talked about. [00:02:24] He stood up for all the conservatives out there. [00:02:28] So I want you to watch this and then come back and I want to hear what you got to say about what John Hannity said. [00:02:35] Watch this. [00:02:35] Roll it. [00:02:37] I have to start tonight by addressing a well-orchestrated effort by the intolerant left in this country that is designed to silence every conservative voice and by any means necessary. [00:02:48] Now I am speaking out tonight so that you, our audience, will understand what is really happening here and what is really at stake when it comes to freedom of speech in this country. [00:02:56] Now these tactics are right out of Saul Linsky's Rule for Radicals playbook. [00:03:00] I've worked in radio for 30 years. [00:03:02] I've been right here at the Fox News channel for 21 and a half years. [00:03:06] I'm very proud of that. [00:03:07] And during this time, there's always been efforts and attempts to smear and slander and besmirch me and other conservatives. [00:03:14] But it has never been as intense and completely insane as it is right now. [00:03:19] Now I want you to understand, every single minute, every single second I am on the air, radio, TV, there's somebody likely being paid recording and monitoring every single word that comes out of my mouth, all in the hopes that I may say something they can twist and distort and use against me and try and destroy my reputation, get my conservative voice off the air. [00:03:42] Now it's only gotten worse in the age of President Trump. [00:03:45] Now it's no secret I've been a supporter of the president and of course his policies and quite simply these liberal fascists, they can't stand conservative voices. [00:03:53] I want you to know, my audience, to understand the importance of what is happening here. [00:03:57] This is not about Sean Hannity. [00:03:59] This is not about one person. [00:04:00] There's now a coordinated attempt to silence the voice of every outspoken conservative in this country. [00:04:07] If we don't stop it right now, there won't be any conservative voices on radio and television left. [00:04:13] Now, I'm not the only one that these liberal fascists routinely target. [00:04:16] Like me, conservatives are monitored on radio and TV every word they say. [00:04:21] And contrary to the alt-radical left stated position, they're so open-minded liberals. [00:04:26] Not true. [00:04:27] Liberal fascism is alive and well in America today. [00:04:31] Their goal is simple. [00:04:32] They want to shut up, shut down, completely silence all conservative voices by any means necessary. [00:04:38] So let me be clear tonight. [00:04:40] Everyone who has publicly supported President Trump is a target. [00:04:44] This is very political. [00:04:45] We have seen repeatedly that the left knows no limits in these efforts. [00:04:49] They have gone after and attacked the first lady. [00:04:52] They have attacked members of the president's family, every White House advisor. [00:04:56] They've even attacked his daughter and his 10-year-old son. [00:05:00] Please know this isn't about me. [00:05:02] This is about the left concocting boycotts all in an attempt to silence prominent conservative voices. [00:05:09] If we don't take a stand now, if we allow this to happen now, I am telling you, America as we know it, freedom of speech as we know it is over. [00:05:19] This is serious, Pastor. [00:05:21] Wow. [00:05:21] You know, I would like to find out from you, do you truly believe that they are trying to monitor everything this man is saying? [00:05:29] Yes. [00:05:29] And every preacher, every minister, every speaker, every broadcaster, and I know they're monitoring me. [00:05:39] There was a pastor in Atlanta who was speaking out his opinion on how he felt about his personal values. [00:05:47] And what ended up happening is the government came in, demanded that they see all of his records of things that he'd been speaking on, and basically shut him down right then and there. [00:05:59] So this isn't the first time people have been shut down in America. [00:06:02] What Christians need to know is that what they're accusing Bill O'Reilly, for instance, how could they bring this man down, the number one broadcaster in America? [00:06:16] They're bringing him down. [00:06:18] We're in the midst of a very severe weathery time here where we're taping this. [00:06:24] So we're watching other things. [00:06:26] But they bring these people down for what the others in America, the liberals, for instance, do every day. [00:06:39] Only, you know, when you're liberal, that means you can do anything you want. [00:06:44] And get away with it. [00:06:45] And they can have sex with a different girl or a different man every night. [00:06:49] I mean, that's just lifestyle. [00:06:51] But would you have a Christian get caught doing something wrong or even one of these conservative announcers, what they say, well, he was, it was a sexual, what, talking? [00:07:04] You know, it's harassment by comments, lewd statements. [00:07:09] And you shouldn't lose your television show. [00:07:14] You shouldn't lose your life and your livelihood because you said something. [00:07:20] You know, they're fighting for freedom of speech, but they're taking away all of our freedom of speech. [00:07:28] You know, they don't beat up on liberals. [00:07:33] They don't beat up on their own. [00:07:35] No. [00:07:36] They're out to destroy the church and out to destroy every person. [00:07:41] Now, I happen to know President Kennedy's security affords. [00:07:47] When I was going to the White House, many of them were still working there in secret service. [00:07:55] And my, I didn't have secret service, but I had security. [00:07:59] So when I went to go see presidents, my security and the White House security would get together. [00:08:06] And they told me the stories that came from the White House about people literally, they were escorting women up to John Kennedy's apartment for sexual encounters, sometimes multiple times a day. [00:08:25] Did you ever read about that? [00:08:27] once in a liberal newspaper or any newspaper. [00:08:31] You know, it is in Bill O'Reilly's book, Killing Kennedy, though. [00:08:35] That news is, which is interesting that he wrote that book, and he's a great bestseller author. [00:08:41] Yeah. [00:08:42] And I don't believe we should smear every filthy thing. [00:08:46] I don't believe God called us to be the inquirers of the world. [00:08:49] But, you know, that's up to everybody what they do. [00:08:53] But here's the thing. [00:08:56] We wink at the sins of some and we're closing down. [00:09:03] Even the president of the United States, instead of giving him a chance, which we give in every president, this, right now, there's a war to destroy every leader. [00:09:17] And just as O'Reilly said, and now Sean Hannity, he said that they're out to destroy anyone who is a conservative and who has stood up for the president of the United States. [00:09:36] We're in serious trouble. [00:09:38] And they're going to be taking preachers out one by one by one. [00:09:42] They don't take us out in groups. [00:09:44] They take you out one at a time. [00:09:46] This is important what we're talking about right now, Pastor, because if you're a pastor, if you're a minister, if you're an evangelist, if you have a ministry that is outspoken out there, the scripture Mark 13, verse 13 says, everyone will hate you because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. [00:10:07] If you stand for Jesus Christ, guarantee that they're coming after you. [00:10:12] But what should we do? [00:10:13] We stand in the word. [00:10:14] We stand firm together. [00:10:16] And I don't want to see this day happen, but it's happening more and more. [00:10:20] A lot of people are not paying attention to it. [00:10:23] We're talking about it. [00:10:24] Charisma is bringing us forward to talk about this. [00:10:28] And this is good because last week. [00:10:30] Here's the headline in Charisma. [00:10:32] Right now, Pentecostals, evangelicals, most persecuted group of Christianity and the Christians are being persecuted all over the world. [00:10:46] Wow. [00:10:47] You know, it's shocking not only to hear that that has happened all over the world, but it's shocking what is happening here in the United States. [00:10:55] And the way they're shutting us down is by taking away our rights to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. [00:11:02] They don't want to hear, you said a few moments ago that what's standing between the liberals and what they're trying to do is the word of God. [00:11:12] Could we be next? [00:11:13] 2016, Christianity was ranked the most persecuted religion in the world. [00:11:21] Wow. [00:11:22] Have you heard anybody talk about it? [00:11:24] Have you heard anybody even lift their little finger to try to save our country? [00:11:30] Our leaders in the last years have not even hardly allowed a few percentage, one, two, three percent maybe of Christians that are being persecuted around the world. [00:11:43] That's the number being allowed into this country. [00:11:47] That's not fair. [00:11:48] It's not fair because it should be, the Bible says that it should reign in the unjust and the just. [00:11:55] It's not fair when they take away the rights of one side of the group and give everyone else the right to do whatever they want to do. [00:12:02] This is how you know we are being separated and they're trying to destroy us by groups. [00:12:09] It's okay for one group to say something, but it's not okay for the other group to say something. [00:12:13] That is not freedom of speech, if you ask me. [00:12:15] You know, I got something to say to that. [00:12:18] How can we defend freedom overseas if we can't keep it here? [00:12:23] That's right. [00:12:24] You know, if, however, the majority of constituents of a nation become unstable, if they become self-seeking, rebellious, unreasonable, or violent, then the consensus begins to break down. [00:12:36] We are now in the midst of discovering that democracy and its attendant laws are insufficient to control a people who become increasingly perverse. [00:12:47] That's what we're looking at. [00:12:49] What it sounds like to me is that people are just afraid of hearing something that is different from their own beliefs, which is actually the beautiful part of being human is listening to other perspectives so that you can build on your own. [00:13:03] So you can build your argument on believing why you believe. [00:13:05] And I tell you what, Pastor, I am fired up about this Ann Coulter story. [00:13:09] Fear has won and free speech has taken a hit with this story. [00:13:13] What happened was Ann Coulter was scheduled to speak at Berkeley. [00:13:17] And then Berkeley said that Berkeley canceled her speech and said that because they could not protect her. [00:13:24] Now, why can't they protect her? [00:13:26] Why not? [00:13:26] So I'm angry at the college for doing this, first of all, but I'm even more angry at the college students. [00:13:32] And this is something you'll hear me say a lot, is I think the great part about college is being in an environment where you are learning around people who grew up in different environments than you did. [00:13:41] You are hearing different perspectives, whether they be right or wrong. [00:13:44] You're learning all about that. [00:13:45] What happened to having a debate? [00:13:47] Why are students resorting to violence when they don't agree with something? [00:13:51] They don't have to go to this Ann Coulter speech if they don't want to, and they have a problem with it. [00:13:57] Then you need to have an old-fashioned debate. [00:13:59] What happened to that? [00:14:00] It's gone. [00:14:01] You're absolutely right. [00:14:03] And I mean, they burn the campus. [00:14:07] Yes. [00:14:08] They break the windows. [00:14:09] They're like little children with temper tantrums. [00:14:13] That's exactly right. [00:14:14] Destroying, and they're going to do it to the church. [00:14:18] They've already done it. [00:14:19] They've silenced most of the voices of most of our pastors already. [00:14:25] Our pastors are afraid of government. [00:14:29] The government uses all their different agencies to come into a church. [00:14:34] And with all the government rules and all the IRS rules and all, everybody's broken a rule. [00:14:41] And so they can just come in and focus on that. [00:14:45] And truly, I know what is going on. [00:14:48] And America is in real danger tonight. [00:14:52] You know what's surprising, Pastor? [00:14:53] I've been all week long. [00:14:54] I've been on the phone with so many pastors, and they have encouraged us to remind us that we are the only voices out there that are being loud to speak about the issues that are going on right now on the headline news. === Major Conflict Possible (07:44) === [00:15:09] It's encouraging for us to know that people are watching the Jim Baker show. [00:15:14] They're watching Revelation in the news. [00:15:16] They're hearing a new message and challenging the church to stand up, not walk away, not give up, but to stand together firmly to continue to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and the mandate that he's given us in today's world. [00:15:35] North Korea in the news never stops. [00:15:39] All the time. [00:15:40] And the president, what was that headline? [00:15:42] Trump this week said major, major, he used the word twice, major, major conflict with North Korea possible. [00:15:51] But he seeks diplomacy and action in that way. [00:15:56] That's right. [00:15:56] You know, I was even just watching a news report. [00:16:00] It's also said that South Korea, he's petitioning that South Korea pay the cost of the U.S. Thad missile, the anti-missile defense system, which he estimates to be at $1 billion and intends to renegotiate or terminate a U.S. free trade pact with South Korea because of a deep trade deficit with Seoul. [00:16:24] So on either side... [00:16:26] And South Korea is our friend, but he wants them to help pay for their defense. [00:16:30] That's right. [00:16:31] Of their own country. [00:16:32] I mean, as we learned, the 59 Tomahawk missiles cost over a million dollars to shoot one missile over there, and we shot 59. [00:16:41] Defending your friends at this point isn't becoming free, and everybody needs to be held accountable for their end of the bargain. [00:16:50] You know, we have not defended our own nation. [00:16:55] Building a wall is just enforcing our laws and trying to keep terrorism and drugs out of our country. [00:17:02] And yet, we keep pouring money to defend the world. [00:17:06] We are the defender of the world, really. [00:17:09] And we have been the defender of the world. [00:17:11] And I believe that Mr. Trump has a plan to put America back in charge of its own life and to save America because America is inch by inch been going downhill. [00:17:28] You know, Pastor, when you read the reports of what's going on in America today and how many things have not been updated since the Cold War, it's scary that we here at home may not be ready for war. [00:17:42] In 1985, the last time the report from the House Representative of Hawaii said that the last time things were updated was in 1995. [00:17:54] They are not ready to defend themselves. [00:17:57] They're not ready for war. [00:17:58] They're not ready to know what to do with the people if they're hit with an atomic bomb or with any fires that are being fired at Hawaii. [00:18:06] It's scary to know that we're trying to take care of the world, but we forgot to take care of the United States of America. [00:18:14] Cora, you have another story, another headline about Hawaii. [00:18:18] Yes, the threats from North Korea have gotten to a point to where the top U.S. military officer in the Pacific Ocean told Congress on Wednesday that the Pentagon needs to consider deploying new anti-ballistic missiles and a defensive radar in Hawaii to protect a growing threat against North Korea. [00:18:35] This is getting real. [00:18:36] We are actually looking at this defensive radar in Hawaii because the threats are getting to that point. [00:18:43] This isn't just rumors anymore. [00:18:46] You know, there Mondo even brought up that Hawaii is looking at updating their systems that haven't been done since 1985, which also includes medical kits, medical care, and food, rations for these people that are going to have to go and find a safe place, you know, in the case of worst case scenario. [00:19:06] The president and our leaders have had a meeting last week. [00:19:11] Senators told North that North Korea is an urgent nuclear threat to the United States of America. [00:19:21] We have threats from every part of the world right now. [00:19:24] And it is time to stand together. [00:19:28] And America's going to come apart if it doesn't come together. [00:19:33] Because America must stand. [00:19:36] It's horrible that we don't stand together in senators and Congress and our president. [00:19:43] It's time because war is coming. [00:19:47] What's that plan that was. [00:19:49] Ted Cruz, I think Ted Cruz came up with a great idea. [00:19:53] Yeah, that's the one. [00:19:54] To use Pachapa's money from his arrest to basically use $14 billion to go to the wall. [00:20:02] I think that's a great idea instead of lining the pockets with all that money of legislators and lobbyists and all these people that I'm sure owe Trump favors, but putting it towards something extremely useful that American taxpayers won't have to pay for. [00:20:17] You know what? [00:20:18] I think that every dollar could be earmarked that comes from the cartel. [00:20:24] Is that what they're called in Mexico? [00:20:27] And the amount of money, I think Ted said it was like $14 billion that they have in this. [00:20:39] In fact, that's the net worth of El Chapo. [00:20:44] I don't know him too well. [00:20:47] It's so funny. [00:20:48] One of my adopted children actually have his real last name. [00:20:52] You know his real last name? [00:20:54] Yeah. [00:20:54] And one of my kids, actually, that I adopted has that same name. [00:20:59] So maybe he's their daddy. [00:21:01] I don't know. [00:21:02] But I'll tell you what. [00:21:04] I think it's a start. [00:21:06] It's an idea. [00:21:08] And they all, it was used to say, poo-poo those ideas. [00:21:11] I'll tell you what. [00:21:12] I encourage ideas. [00:21:14] People say, oh, that's a dumb idea. [00:21:16] No, it's not a dumb idea. [00:21:17] It's not. [00:21:18] Do you know how many, I don't know if you've ever seen the government sales. [00:21:23] The government has sales. [00:21:24] Did you know that? [00:21:25] That's right. [00:21:25] Auctions. [00:21:26] They sell jet airplanes, beautiful sports cars, everything you can think of. [00:21:32] They take any of the goods seized from criminals. [00:21:35] It confiscates. [00:21:36] They take and sell that. [00:21:38] Well, why couldn't we earmark those who have caused us the billions of dollars of medical cost and trying to secure cost, our border and our land? [00:21:52] Why not use those who have brought about that? [00:21:55] That's a start. [00:21:57] That's a fun. [00:21:57] I think it's what Cora said earlier. [00:21:59] I think it's time for debating such things into becoming a reality. [00:22:04] Confiscating money from El Chapo and the cartels of Mexico, I think that's a great idea to pay for the wall and pay for anything else that the United States had to pay for for so many years. [00:22:15] And, you know, by allowing this to happen, it creates conversation in Congress to be able to think outside of the box. [00:22:22] I think it's okay to think outside of the box. [00:22:24] And it's time for us to be able to understand that if we can do something like that by confiscating the money of the cartels and use it to build lives, why not use it, take advantage of it, and be able to create an opportunity where once there was a problem. === Perilous Times Rock Faith (04:23) === [00:22:42] You know, the first responders, it's the news from ABC. [00:22:45] The first responders unprepared for terror attacks. [00:22:50] The area first responders in one part of America are now preparing for a complex terror attack. [00:22:59] So, you know, there's a story, Mondo. [00:23:02] You have it breaking there on your iPhone. [00:23:06] Would you like to read it? [00:23:07] We get news from everywhere. [00:23:09] We have to. [00:23:09] I think this is important. [00:23:11] Bill Gates, terrorists, could wipe out 30 million people by weaponizing a disease such as smallpox. [00:23:20] You know, I've spent my life studying all the ways the Revelation talks about. [00:23:24] Go quickly to Revelation. [00:23:26] If you have a Bible, I'll read it. [00:23:27] We'll put it on the screen. [00:23:28] Revelation 6:7. [00:23:30] And we had to open the fourth seal. [00:23:32] I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, come and see. [00:23:36] And I looked and behold, a pale horse, and his name that sat on him was death, and hell followed with him. [00:23:41] And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth to kill with sword and with hunger and by death. [00:23:49] And that word death in the Hebrew and Greek, when you studied in the original, this would be Greek here, to kill with the sword and with hunger and by death, it means plague, pestilence, or disease. [00:24:05] And moreover, with and by or from the beasts and the animals of the earth. [00:24:11] So these plagues have been forecast by God Almighty, the four horses of the apocalypse, which I believe they're out of the barn and riding today. [00:24:22] And when you see this story here, and this is Bill Gates, right? [00:24:27] Yes, sir, Bill Gates. [00:24:29] And most powerful man in the world. [00:24:31] And here he is saying that they're planning to weaponize using diseases like smallpox, which will kill, he believes, up to 30 million people. [00:24:44] That's a lot of people. [00:24:45] You know, that reminds me of this article. [00:24:47] The Japanese are demanding for nuclear shelters, but they're also wanting air purifiers. [00:24:52] Now, these air purifiers have been able to keep out radiation, poisonous gases, and that's becoming more and more of a threat seeing how close they are to North Korea. [00:25:04] They say if North Korea launches, that their people only have 10 minutes to react and find safety. [00:25:12] You know, I know we say this on this program a lot, but they say that perilous times will come. [00:25:16] That's something we say a lot. [00:25:17] But do we really know, do we really understand what that means? [00:25:21] I mean, perilous times are going to come that are going to rock our faith and rock what we believe. [00:25:25] And it is so important now more than ever that we have our foundation solid. [00:25:31] We need to know what we believe because when these trials come, when these bad things come, we need to know what we believe so that we stand on the word of God and our faith does not falter. [00:25:42] You know, Mondo, I'm one of them. [00:25:45] She's probably quoting me a little bit. [00:25:47] We are in the perilous times. [00:25:50] They are now. [00:25:51] Yes, sir. [00:25:52] You studied that this week. [00:25:54] I did. [00:25:54] In your devotional. [00:25:56] We're crazy. [00:25:57] We have wild devotionals around here because we're believing God to tell us what's going on. [00:26:03] What's perilous times mean? [00:26:04] Vicious, fearful, dangerous, you know, uncontrollable times that we're living in. [00:26:10] So perilous times are dangerous times. [00:26:13] They're uncontrollable times, vicious times that we're in. [00:26:17] If we don't understand key words of what the Bible is talking about, you might miss the message that God has through his word. [00:26:26] And by you teaching us the perilous times are coming, it brought to my attention, wait a minute, I need to go find out what perilous times mean because I think it's more than what is just saying there. [00:26:37] And when you hear the definition of it and you watch this headline news breaking daily, you realize that we're in vicious, dangerous, uncontrollably times that if we're not ready, we might be in danger to be caught unaware of the times that we're in. === Stand Up For What's Right (00:44) === [00:26:54] So I think that what you're saying, Pastor, is one of the most powerful statements that the horses are out riding. [00:27:02] And if we don't watch where they're riding at, we might get crushed in between all that. [00:27:07] It's time to stand up for what's right because it's going to be very difficult to live even a Christian life in these last days. [00:27:17] You know, Texas is poised to pass sanctuary city banning laws. [00:27:24] The president's going to Israel. [00:27:26] Good things are happening. [00:27:28] Let's stand up for what's right. [00:27:30] Don't let them tear people down. [00:27:32] Don't let them destroy your church because Jesus Christ is coming back. [00:27:37] We win in the end.
