Time Text
Attacking the Throat 00:03:16
To give you another example, they are so organized to character assassinate you because they not only want to silence you, they not only want to take you off the air, but they want to make sure that they discredit you as a person, as a Jim Baker ministry, as a person or a Brigitte Gapriel.
So you will be blacklisted from anybody else who is willing to carry you or for anybody who is willing to invite you to speak.
We work on the highest levels of government.
You know, we are a very respected organization.
We had planned to do our fundraising gala, our only fundraising gala of the year at Mar-a-Lago, President Trump's home and country club in Florida.
We have sent invitations to our top donors, inviting them to this very exclusive gala.
We were going to honor members of Congress.
We were going to honor the governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis.
We were honoring Congressman Jim Jordan, Congressman Mark Meadows.
We were having Michelle Elkin as our keynote speaker.
So we had high-level people we were honoring.
When the Southern Poverty Law Center, who consider people like, you know, me and many other conservative organizations, even churches, they consider us a hate group.
They, when they found out about it, they put an action, a story about it on Friday night.
Saturday morning, four weeks before our event, the Miami Herald regurgitates the same story.
The Council on American Islamic Relations puts it out.
Anyway, they put enough pressure on Mar-a-Lago that actually we had to be canceled.
They vilified us so much, they went after the president because they were trying to destroy the president.
This is in the middle of the impeachment thing that we had to cancel.
They canceled our dinner gala.
It not only cost us a ton of money, but we were literally fighting for our survival.
We were fighting for our reputation.
And at the same time, we did not want to hurt the president by really going out, you know, at a very sensitive time.
So we swallowed the bullet.
We took it aside.
And I said, we understand that Trump attorney's decision to cancel our dinner gala due to pressure by leftist and Islamic group, but we do not hold President Trump nor his family responsible for the cancellation because we were committed to standing with our president, to defending our president.
He is fighting for free speech.
They're going after his throat like they're after our throat.
And I have to tell you, because of all this big brouhaha we had to undergo, we lost over a million dollars because of that whole thing.
And that was our fundraiser of the year.
Not only that, we have to spend $400,000 to build our own database system so we are able to continue reaching our members with our emails and action alerts.
And that was unbudgeted for us.
So they're trying to discredit you, suffocate you, destroy you, bankrupt you, and character assassinate you.
Stand Up for Freedom 00:06:05
And they are doing this to every Christian voice, every conservative voice.
And unless we come together now and we stand together and we bond together, standing up for the freedom to defend freedom of speech, we're all going to die together and we're all going to be crucified separately.
And this is the time to come together.
And by the way, I encourage people to go to our website, actforamerica.org, actforamerica.org, and click on contact Congress.
You will see our bills.
One of the bills is the Freedom of Speech Act.
We want you to sign the Defend Free Speech Act and make sure you contact your member of Congress.
We already have a pre-written letter for you.
All you have to do is enter your zip code.
We'll give you the name of your elected official, their name, their phone number, their email, their address.
We have a pre-written letter for you.
With the click of a button, you can take action to defend your freedom of speech, Jim Baker's freedom of speech, Brigitte Gabrielle's freedom of speech, and every single Christian and pastor and a conservative.
You know, they say 2% of the passionate will always rule that 98% indifference.
And I'm going to repeat: 2% of the passionate will always rule the 98% indifference.
So just remember, those who signed the petition against the Jim Baker show, those people who are screaming against our voices, against our messages, against the Judeo-Christian values that our country was founded upon.
There's not many of them, but they scream.
We need to start voice speaking louder, standing on authority, voicing our concerns.
We are Americans.
We walk in the footsteps of our founding fathers.
What do you think President George Washington above me would have done if he was faced with this situation?
Do you think he would have stayed silent and prayed?
No, we pray, but we also act.
And that's why I named my organization, not pray for America, not hope for America, not wish for America, not think about America, but act for America.
Because if you don't take action, nothing happens.
You need to pray and you need to think and you need to wish and you need to hope.
But without taking action, nothing happens.
Act for America.
Go to our website, go to the Jim Baker site to protect all our freedom of speech, not just Jim Baker, not just Brigitte Gabrielle, but you, your husband, your wife, your children, your brother, your sister, your family, your grandchildren.
Because if they silence us now, will your grandchildren be able to speak in 20 years in defense of America, in defense of the Judeo-Christian values, in defense of Christ, in defense of everything this nation was founded upon?
We need you as much as you need us.
Together, we can make a difference for our country.
That's right.
And I want you to know, Brigitte, that we stand with you.
We stand with Act for America.
You know, Jim Weiss, I love that the name.
I love it that you said.
I mean, we all need to pray.
We all pray.
But I love it that you named your organization, Act for America, because Jim always says it, and it's the scripture, it's the word, faith without works is what?
Dead.
Faith without works is dead.
And you can have all the faith in the world, and we do.
But without works, it's dead.
It's dead.
It's gone.
And so it's like people that say, I read my Bible on voting day, but I'm going to stay at home and I'm not going to go out and vote.
Well, guess what?
Somebody else voted against your values because you stayed home and read your Bible.
God uses his people as instruments of change.
God doesn't change the world through lightning in the sky.
God uses his people as instruments of change.
We are under attack.
We are at war between goodness and evil.
And the evil people are shouting.
They are loud.
You know, they say squeaky wheel gets the oil.
They are squeaking.
We sit at home, we read our Bibles, we pray for our enemies.
Here's another thing.
We pray for our enemies.
We say, because they do not know what they're doing.
We pray for them that God will bless them.
We forgive them.
See, because we are raised in a way where we base our faith and we walk the word of God and we read our Bibles.
And in our Bible, it says, pray for your enemy.
Forgive those who trespass against you.
But the enemy that we are fighting, the evil that we are fighting, they hate us so much that they are willing to do whatever it takes to kill us, to completely destroy us.
They don't care if Jim Baker gets a stroke.
As long as he's off the air and he's dead, they're happy.
That's what they want.
That's their ultimate goal.
Well, on our side, we pray.
They are out on the attack.
So this is why we need every single one of you watching right now.
You need to stand for truth.
You need to stand for justice.
You are fighting an unseen enemy and we are at war.
And you are a soldier in God's army.
You are a soldier for truth.
You are a soldier for passion.
You are a voice for the voiceless because you know the truth.
And you have a responsibility to whom much is given, much is required.
You have a responsibility, what you know and what you stand on to stand up and speak up for our nation and support those who are in the front line fighting, like the Jim Baker show, like the Prajieef Gabrielle.
