| Fort Collins. | |
| A string of burglaries in Torrance, California had the police scratching their heads until they raided a motel and nabbed the perpetrator, a fragile 82-year-old woman. | |
| I'm Dr. Katherine Albrecht, back in a moment with the tale of the gray-haired burglar after this. | |
| Your email is your business. | |
| But if it's spied on, hacked, or intercepted, it can fall into the wrong hands. | |
| The solution is encryption, a high-tech way to scramble your data so no one can read it. | |
| For years, only the technical elite could use this powerful tool until Startmail came along. | |
| Startmail not only lets you encrypt the email you send, it encrypts your entire account. | |
| Encryption. | |
| It's just one more way Startmail.com keeps you safe. | |
| Doris Ann Gamble had a 21-page rap sheet. | |
| She'd been arrested in connection with a homicide, gone to jail nine times, and used at least 25 aliases. | |
| At 82, you'd think she might retire, but no. | |
| Police busted her for burglarizing eight doctor's offices. | |
| The frail elderly woman would hide in their offices after being seen. | |
| When the staff went home, she would raid the cash boxes, netting over $17,000. | |
| At her sentencing, she told detectives she wouldn't do all this nonsense if the government just gave us more money. | |
| Then she asked the court for donations to buy snacks in jail. | |
| I'm Dr. Katherine Albrecht for Startmail.com, the private email alternative. | |

| This is Just Informed Talk Radio. | |
| where we are not ashamed of the gospel because it is God's power for salvation to everyone who believes. | |
| One thing, I don't know why It doesn't even matter how hard you try Keep that in mind I designed this rhyme to explain it to time All I know Time is a valuable thing Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings Watch it count down to the end of the day The clock takes life away It's so unreal Didn't look out below Watch the sign go right out the window | |
| Trying to hold on but you didn't even know Wasted it all just to watch you go I kept everything inside And even though I tried Welcome to another Just Informed talk radio show I'm your host, Craig James. | |
| Hope you guys are having a wonderful, wonderful day. | |
| Boy, do we have a show for you. | |
| I'm sure many of you are coming in fresh off of a night of partying and or consuming copious amounts of either chicken wings or beer or both. | |
| That's okay. | |
| For those of you out there who don't drink, that's probably the better way to go. | |
| That's where I'm at. | |
| You know, alcohol, it's poison, right, at the end of the day, so there's that. | |
| But, yeah, some of you probably nursing a bit of a hangover, so don't worry. | |
| Don't worry. | |
| We're going to give you some information, not about hangovers, but about the world that's going to be pretty interesting. | |
| We're not really going to talk about the Super Bowl other than the fact that, of course, if or unless you've been hiding under a rock or intentionally decided not to watch it. | |
| The result of the Super Bowl was as follows. | |
| The Philadelphia Eagles winning 40 to the Kansas City Chiefs 22. And that's really being very generous with the score. | |
| And the game was pretty much a complete blowout. | |
| For the first three quarters, not much to really talk about there. | |
| The Eagles dominated that game from the first snap at scrimmage. | |
| Again, I'm not a big sports guy other than I do enjoy watching sports from time to time, and I do enjoy football particularly. | |
| I played it when I was growing up, and I like team sports. | |
| I don't think... | |
| I don't buy into the whole tribalism thing. | |
| Like, if you were to like a different team than the one I perhaps may like, I will not, you know, yell at you and, you know, call you names. | |
| I think that's silly, stupid. | |
| And also, you know, it took me a while to get back on the NFL. I took a few years off when they were kneeling and putting up fists and saying Black Lives Matter and everything had a racist, you know, intonation to it. | |
| But, of course, you know, Here we are. | |
| We're back. | |
| And it is sort of entertaining, but it is also interesting to watch. | |
| So wherever you land on that spectrum, whether you didn't watch at all or you watched it and were really invested, yeah, it was an interesting game. | |
| I did not watch the halftime show before anybody texted in to ask. | |
| I intentionally chose not to watch that because the person who was headlining the show itself Was, in fact, a person who has openly mocked Christ in his music and done other things and openly praised and gave, you know, adoration toward in his music the devil, Satan. | |
| So that's the kind of person I don't want to be a part of or attuned to remotely. | |
| I believe in the psychic sort of... | |
| Implementation of these transit incantations that they can put through the airwaves, believe it or not, and just by watching it, you become a part of it. | |
| I know that sounds crazy to some of you, some of you not so much, but that is why I chose not to tune in. | |
| And as I've heard on social media... | |
| It wasn't much, I didn't miss anything anyway. | |
| Most people, the biggest thing I've seen on social media, just people talking about it, where they didn't understand anything the guy was saying, well, you know, he's one of those rappers who mumbles. | |
| So it's, okay, I don't know what the guy's saying either. | |
| But I've actually, it's funny enough, so on my Twitter account I've had to literally put in the muted words, because you can mute words on your timeline so that you don't see them pop up in your social media feed. | |
| I mute a lot of different things, but I've had to put mutes on Super Bowl and all the other iterations of that, so I don't see this stuff. | |
| Popping up in my social media feed for eternity now, which is actually a little life hack, in case you're wondering. | |
| You can mute words on your social media accounts so that they don't pop into your timeline, so that it spares you the hassle of having to scroll past it. | |
| But today's show is different. | |
| We're not going to talk about the Super Bowl, really. | |
| I'll give you my brief take on it, whatever it is, because it's got the esoteric sort of superb owl ritualism and all that stuff. | |
| But today we're going to talk about the CIA relaunching in desperation, its anonymous hacking collective as a threat against the American government and particularly the Trump administration. | |
| We're going to talk about that. | |
| And exactly what that means, because this is big news, guys. | |
| They put out a video over the weekend right ahead of the Super Bowl basically threatening the government and giving some dire warnings, which we'll cover in more detail right after we come back from the next break in the second segment here, the first hour. | |
| But before we do that, though, of course, to recap the Super Bowl for anybody who didn't watch, boring. | |
| I got to about halftime and then gave up. | |
| Just turned the thing off. | |
| Went and hung out with the family. | |
| I'm not too interested in what that... | |
| I didn't want to watch the halftime show, that's for sure. | |
| And then the game was such a blowout at the half that I was just like, this is not even interesting or fun to watch. | |
| So I turned it off, and as I thought would happen, the Eagles won. | |
| Like I said, 40-22. | |
| Spoiler alert for anybody who didn't watch the game, but if you didn't watch the game, you're going to hear about this all day anyway, so I'm sure I'm not the first to tell you. | |
| What I've read on social media from what little I've looked at is, before I started muting Super Bowl because it was everything in my feed, is that the halftime show was not as overtly Crafted toward the ritualism that they usually have, | |
| where they have owls and other type of, you know, idolatry and satanic symbolism strung throughout. | |
| throughout it was a little bit more tamped down and it was just some uh rapper who nobody really understood and apparently some people made appearances but nothing of any real importance to anybody listening here i'm sure uh i didn't really care too much that's all i know really i didn't watch it so i have no idea i'm just going off what i saw or read online um we also had somebody text in | |
| uh our good friend jay deplore will say the guy regularly wears a diamond encrusted crown of thorns yeah i mean i couldn't even begin to tell you how uh disinterested i was when i saw who was performing at halftime and then realized who they were and what they sort of represented uh | |
| Again, like I said, both mocking Christ and invoking positive attitudes and sentiments toward Satan in some of his lyrics of his songs that I read. | |
| So, yeah, I wasn't really interested. | |
| But that's the game. | |
| That's the game in a nutshell. | |
| So I hope that... | |
| I hope that satiates your desire for sports talk because that's about the maximum amount of sports talk you're going to get here on this show ever is a brief five-minute recap of the biggest sporting event in the world that in its summons talent. | |
| I will say this, though. | |
| Taylor Swift, the Swifties out there who, you know, she told to hate Trump, but that backfired. | |
| Her boyfriend didn't do so well last night, so there were some bright lights or bright sides to it. | |
| I mean, I don't root for people to fail, but, you know, you make your bed, you lie on it, and that's my opinion. | |
| Anyway, when we come back, Anonymous has returned, the Hacking Collective. | |
| Stay tuned. | |
| In his well-known devotional, My Upmost for His Highest, Oswald Chambers asks, Are you ready to be offered? | |
| Paul writes in Philippians 2.17, Are we willing to bind our worldly selves to the sacrificial altar to have the things of the flesh removed? | |
| The altar means fire, burning and purification and the removal of everything that God has not started and of every attachment. | |
| That is not an attachment to God. | |
| If we wish to experience the fullness of God working in us and through us, the things of the world must be removed. | |
| As Chambers says, tell God you are ready to be offered and God will prove himself to be all you ever dreamed he would be. | |

| Tune in to Classic Vinyl with JD, Saturdays at 2pm, right here on AM 1360, Northern Colorado's Best Talk Radio. | |
| We're all through. | |
| We're all through. | |
| I am your host, Craig James. | |
| And like I said before, we recapped the Super Bowl, which not much to really talk about anyway. | |
| But, oh yeah, Donald Trump was there. | |
| So, you know, there's that. | |
| Anyway, let's talk about this anonymous thing. | |
| So, if you guys will recall, there is an organization that has existed for quite some time, which... | |
| Over the last several years has laid relatively dormant, known as Anonymous. | |
| And this is not related to QAnon. | |
| This predates QAnon by quite some time. | |
| This is an organization whose signature calling card is the release of ominous warning videos. | |
| That include characters featured wearing the iconic Guy Fawkes mask made famous by... | |
| Remember, remember the 5th of November, the rebellion there, that's where Guy Fawkes is originally from, as I recall it. | |
| It was the rebellion. | |
| I can't remember the name of the rebellion off the top of my head. | |
| But it was where they packed a bunch of powder kegs somewhere and blew them up, and it was sort of a revolt against a corrupt type of government. | |
| Or control system, as I recall. | |
| I'd have to go refresh myself on the story. | |
| But it's besides the point, because it doesn't really lend itself to... | |
| And it was also repopularized in the movie V for Vendetta, which is a movie starring... | |
| I think Natalie Portman was in it. | |
| And I don't know who else was in it, but it basically set in sort of a dystopic, sort of Orwellian future where government has gotten out of control and is authoritarian and fascistic and dictator-like. | |
| And the protagonist is a man who, I can't remember his name in that movie, but he's a character who we don't really see his face at all throughout the movie. | |
| Guy Fawkes Mask, which you can look it up. | |
| It's Guy G-U-Y and Fox, which I don't know if I'm pronouncing it right, but it's F-A-W-K-E-S or U-K-E-S or U-X-E-S. Not sure how to spell it either. | |
| What do I do? | |
| No. | |
| It's sort of a sidebar to this. | |
| It doesn't really lend itself to anything. | |
| It's just... | |
| What the characters in these videos wears is this Guy Fawkes mask representing sort of an organization, right? | |
| Who we are familiar with because they are basically a hacking collective, right? | |
| And people have speculated for many years as to the origin of this anonymous hacking collective. | |
| And the general consensus is that this hacking collective, Anonymous, is a group whose motivations seem to coincide with the motivations and foreign diplomacy interests of the U.S. State Department and the Central Intelligence Agency. | |
| So people have said ipso facto, this hacking collective is some sort of... | |
| Offshoot sort of clandestine operative collective that basically consists of hackers who have some connection to an organization that may in fact be working at the behest of U.S. intelligence. | |
| And or a collective of like the 5i intelligence agencies because this has popped up in not just the United States, but Europe, Australia, you name it. | |
| This hacking collective is sort of internationally known. | |
| So that's the background on Anonymous for anybody out there who doesn't know what Anonymous, the hacking collective, is. | |
| Now, interestingly enough, over the weekend, this video was released. | |
| From their collective, supposedly. | |
| Now, these videos drop often. | |
| Sometimes they're attributed to smaller subsects of the collective. | |
| Sometimes they're attributable to the whole group, the group as a whole, the hacking collective, as it were. | |
| We're not sure exactly where this lies in that sort of spectrum. | |
| But the message within it is interesting. | |
| And what's also interesting is that some of the people who have been connected to this hacking collective over the past have been people who have backgrounds like disaffected, sort of high intelligence, highly intelligent hacking, you know, techno guys who have a proclivity to lean hard left. | |
| This hacking collective became very famous under the Obama administration. | |
| It was used to go after, you know, sort of tin pot dictatorships in third world countries that, in fact, had, you know, nefarious ties to interests that went against the foreign policy interests of the United States of America, coincidentally. | |
| Of course, I would never want to draw a correlation here. | |
| But they've come out now, and it seems like one of the main anonymous sort of accounts out there has been hardcore against Trump. | |
| I can't remember the name of that particular account. | |
| It's on X, but there are other accounts that have similar views, and it's a very left-leaning organization, it seems. | |
| That being said, if you couple that with the fact that it's most likely a tool of the intelligence deep state, the U.S. intelligence deep state, then it would make sense that this video would come out. | |
| Let's listen to what it says and talk about it. | |
| But... | |
| Again, people will claim that this is a CIA-backed PSYOP group which seems to be furious over the termination of USAID and they're issuing dire warnings against Trump's presidency. | |
| Let's listen to their claims. | |
| Greetings, citizens of the United States. | |
| The effects of Donald Trump's presidency are no longer distant warnings. | |
| They are here, unfolding before you. | |
| While many remain unaware, blinded by the administration's relentless efforts to suppress the truth, the rest of the world is watching, and it is responding. | |
| Longstanding alliances with key nations such as Canada and Mexico are fracturing, inch by inch. | |
| The cracks are widening, and the global community is reassessing its trust in the United States. | |
| The question is no longer if, but when these relationships will collapse entirely. | |
| The consequences will be severe. | |
| Every imported product you rely on, everyday essentials, food, technology, will see skyrocketing prices, making even basic necessities unattainable for the average American. | |
| What you perceive as a simple rise in costs is, in reality, a calculated strategy. | |
| The plan? | |
| To systematically dismantle the lower class. | |
| To push those already struggling into the abyss of poverty where they will face an impossible choice. | |
| Perish or submit to servitude under the wealthy elite. | |
| Make no mistake, this is economic warfare, and the target is you. | |
| The recent ICE raids are not just about immigration enforcement, they are about control. | |
| The Trump administration seeks to reignite the flames of racial inequality and segregation era policies, erasing diversity to craft a nation built on division and fear. | |
| These operations are disrupting local economies. | |
| Okay, I gotta pause it there. | |
| So, the hacking collective known as Anonymous is very concerned about Trump erasing diversity. | |
| Think about that. | |
| Like, think about what the messaging is here. | |
| You almost, I can almost see the group of DEI hires at some bureaucratic off, you know, black site, CIA, you know, operations center. | |
| Crafting this video going, well, we got to tell them how bad it's going to be when they get rid of diversity. | |
| It's about serfitude and slavery, man. | |
| It's like, I mean, I just had to point that out, but we'll keep going. | |
| Let's listen. | |
| Forcing businesses to crumble and ensuring the economic elimination of the working class. | |
| What follows is a society engineered to serve the interests of the few at the cost of the many. | |
| And as the oligarchy takes shape, another darker ideology is creeping into the mainstream. | |
| Fascist ideals, once whispered in the shadows, are now being openly embraced. | |
| Symbolism matters. | |
| Gestures matter. | |
| Elon Musk, a figure of immense influence, recently tested the waters with a gesture recognized worldwide as a Nazi salute. | |
| This was not an accident. | |
| It was a message, a challenge, a warning. | |
| But know this, the people are not silent. | |
| Despite the administration's best efforts to muzzle dissent, the voices of resistance grow louder. | |
| Trump's reckless overhauls, his purges of experienced government officials, his chaotic restructuring of critical infrastructure have created vulnerabilities, weaknesses, entry points. | |
| This transition period is his greatest liability, but it is also our greatest opportunity. | |
| All right. | |
| So let's just take a second and unpack so far. | |
| So they want to bring back diversity. | |
| They want the ICE raids to end. | |
| They're basically telling us that Elon Musk and Trump are Nazis and fascists. | |
| And now they're openly recruiting people to engage in attacks on the quote-unquote vulnerabilities. | |
| Now, why would they do that? | |
| Now, again, remember, I'm not saying that everybody in this anonymous hacking collective is a CIA agent. | |
| No, not as far from it, actually. | |
| It's actually an ingenious way of crowdsourcing the talent necessary to execute these attacks, right? | |
| The people who have the skills. | |
| By taking indoctrinated leftists, mostly, and convincing them they're a part of some bigger organizational effort, which is sort of a tactic that we've seen across the board on both sides, right? | |
| It's a method of psychological and digital warfare that has become very pronounced and apparent here in the last several years. | |
| Whether it was QAnon sort of weaponizing what they called the autist community to, you know, use their collective thought and power to, you know, break down issues and do investigative reporting and journalism that the mainstream media wouldn't do, which I've always described QAnon as basically it was an end around. | |
| To go by the fake news mainstream media industrial complex to get information to people that was important. | |
| But, see, this is the tactic being used inversely, which is to target the Trump administration in effect for delivering on the promises it made to the American people, which are counter to this bureaucratic deep state's And obviously it's a threat to their existence in sum total. | |
| So let's finish this clip. | |
| These vulnerabilities are more than just bureaucratic inefficiencies. | |
| They are cracks in the foundation that can and will be breached. | |
| Anonymous watches. | |
| Anonymous waits. | |
| The time to act is fast approaching. | |
| The administration's arrogance blinds them to the fragility of their own system. | |
| Their overconfidence in their ability to silence dissent and erase opposition will be their undoing. | |
| We know where to look. | |
| We know how to strike. | |
| But understand this. | |
| Our intervention, no matter how disruptive, will only be a temporary roadblock unless you, the people, rise. | |
| This is your warning. | |
| This is your chance. | |
| The transition period is fleeting. | |
| And once they solidify their grip, your options will vanish. | |
| If you fail to act now, the cost of resistance will be far greater in the future. | |
| To those in power, think carefully. | |
| Your decisions now will determine your future. | |
| We are anonymous. | |
| We are legion. | |
| We do not forgive. | |
| We do not forget. | |
| Expect us. | |
| Alright, so that's the sum total of it. | |
| I'll break it down even further when we come back, but suffice it to say that they are encouraging, they are recruiting individuals to launch attacks against Trump and this government. | |
| They're giving you a roadmap of the vulnerabilities, and some people may say there's a possibility this is outside actors. | |
| This could be Russia. | |
| This could be China. | |
| But my intuition, my gut instinct says this is something much closer to home. | |

| Welcome back to Just Form Talk Radio. | |
| I'm back. | |
| It's Craig James. | |
| But, look, sorry. | |
| Sometimes I get distracted, so you hear me just, like, insert some weird thing. | |
| Like, I'm back! | |
| It's because I just, I'm running things here as well, so I get distracted. | |
| But, I am back, and we're talking about this anonymous thing. | |
| And a couple people have texted in. | |
| I'll read your text in just a minute, because it's interesting. | |
| But I want to complete my thought on the video as a whole, right? | |
| The video itself, this is most definitely them calling their shot and also simultaneously recruiting for the attack that will certainly come. | |
| They are trying to garner favor and support among the leftist regimes, which obviously... | |
| Don't like Trump to begin with, but also they're giving them a playbook. | |
| They're saying, here are the vulnerabilities, here are the opportunities, here are the points of attack, the vectors of attack from which we want you to go. | |
| Because that's how anonymous works. | |
| You've got to remember, as I said before, anonymous as a whole is... | |
| ...called or described as a hacking collective, but it's not like they get together as far as I know and have meetings. | |
| I mean, they have Discord servers and other ways that they can sort of communicate amongst one another in larger groups, but... | |
| Moreover, it's sort of this disconnected type of, like a cell network, like a network of cells. | |
| Like terror cells, you have sleeper cells, you have cells that don't talk to one another. | |
| It makes the network impossible to take down. | |
| And that's sort of what Anonymous is to a degree. | |
| And for better or worse, I mean, there have been points in the past where Anonymous has done things that... | |
| Most people see as agreeable or good, but there have been times in the past where they've done things that most people see as not so. | |
| So, and in this particular instance, it becomes all too clear that most likely this anonymous organization is sort of a last-ditch effort to counter Trump's sort of incredibly quick push to vacate the government of it becomes all too clear that most likely this anonymous organization is sort of I mean, this is one of the things, for better or worse, I disagree with Trump on a lot of stuff. | |
| Put my hand up. | |
| I don't like some of his picks for faith leader, the lady that just came up, that Paul lady. | |
| I don't like his stance on abortion. | |
| I don't like some other things that he's kind of worked on over the past. | |
| But overwhelmingly, the majority of things he does, I really do appreciate and approve of. | |
| That being said, one thing I approve of and appreciate more than anything else is this rapid-fire assault on the deep state that he has gone on. | |
| When he hit the ground, he didn't just hit it running. | |
| He hit it in a full wind sprint against these people with the executive orders, the onslaught of executive orders that haven't stopped yet as far as I know. | |
| He's still signing more executive orders each day. | |
| On top of the fact that he has made good on his promise to disband parts of this government, to allow Doge to do its work, to sort of break down first going after really the heart of the beast in the USAID program, | |
| which I think is what has pushed these people's hands so quickly, because you have to imagine that Anonymous, some of the entities or individuals who are a part of it, I mean, | |
| again, if you understand that the USAID program was just a way for the State Department and the DOD and others to implement their statecraft activities through non-governmental organizations to hide the Money trail and also to hide the ability for oversight, | |
| to shield it from oversight, then it would stand to reason that an organization, for instance, like Anonymous, even though it's a collective and it's a loosely tied collective, but it has central nodes, those nodes that are the shot callers, | |
| as they would say, in prison lingo, Those nodes most definitely receive funding through this USAID program, in my estimation. | |
| And in that scenario, of course, they would have a vested interest in stopping Trump immediately because they realize that not only Trump is going after their source of funding, but inevitably it will lead back to the real central nodes that tie back to the intelligence agencies who are being, you know, basically... | |
| And having their dirty laundry put on full display for all to see, which they don't want, and they may actually face accountability and culpability for things they've done previously, which they were assured would not only remain hidden, but also they would never face any sort of accountability toward. | |
| This is, again, their rushed, rushed attempt. | |
| You know, like, if you want to go through sort of the escalation of what's happened here, think about what they did. | |
| Trump signed all these executive orders. | |
| Okay. | |
| Trump started the ICE raids. | |
| Okay. | |
| Nobody really cared. | |
| Like, Congress said, oh, this is bad, this is bad. | |
| But nobody really cared. | |
| Okay, you can deport them. | |
| and we'll just, in four years, we'll get another government in here and we'll bring them back. | |
| You know, you could sign all these executive orders. | |
| In four years, we'll just have somebody come back and undo all your executive orders. | |
| They don't care about that. | |
| But when Trump and this Doge entity hit USAID, which is their source of funding, and it's their funding for operations that are... | |
| Of vital importance to the longevity and, you know, existence, existential reality or the existence of the deep state. | |
| Oh boy, they were on the steps of USAID giving speeches from Congress. | |
| They were already organizing their rent-a-riot mobs to what I call their extortion mobs to get together and start violating. | |
| But guess what? | |
| A. Their hand was forced, so their rushed effort fell flat. | |
| When you have Chuck Schumer up there leading chance, he's not very inspiring, and people aren't going to put their whole effort into it. | |
| And with what Trump has done to the institutions at large that exist already, is he's delegitimized them, but he didn't do it. | |
| They did it to themselves. | |
| When they attacked him relentlessly for four years, trying to ensure that he couldn't come back into office, all they did was undermine themselves. | |
| All they did was sabotage themselves. | |
| They destroyed their own credibility with the people who they were relying on being able to manipulate. | |
| Now, that that's all failed, well, they don't have many other options. | |
| The rental riots failed, the extortion mobs failed, Chuck Schumer saying, we're going to fight! | |
| You know, and his old decrepit voice isn't inspiring people. | |
| The fake news has no legitimacy with the public anymore, and it doesn't, it can't incite the same level of discord that it once could, because people aren't paying attention, and they know how fake and rigged it all is. | |
| So what's their final option? | |
| Well, one of, I mean... | |
| I don't know what their final option is, but their next option seems to be this anonymous thing. | |
| They're going to try to attack Trump, and they're going to try to make life difficult for Americans, and then they're going to try to blame Trump for that difficulty that they cause, and they're going to try to shape narratives around that. | |
| Mark my words. | |
| You probably already see it in some of the things that have been happening. | |
| The groundwork was laid for a lot of this stuff during the Biden administration. | |
| For instance, the egg shortage. | |
| I love they're blaming Trump for the egg shortage. | |
| He's been in office for two weeks, three weeks. | |
| It's all Trump's fault. | |
| I think the egg shortage has a little bit more to do with the previous administration. | |
| And they're already also trying to blame Trump for inflation. | |
| I mean... | |
| Really? | |
| So, four years don't count, but the last three weeks really do. | |
| Anyway, it goes on and on and on. | |
| We'll talk about it more when we come back. | |
| Stay tuned. | |

| Welcome back to Just Forum Talk Radio. | |
| I'm your host, Craig James. | |
| And we had a few texts come in not too long ago. | |
| We had one person from the 970 say, Boy, Anonymous, where were you the last four years? | |
| Well, interesting you should say that. | |
| Anonymous, that's the thing. | |
| That's what leads you to believe that this is something much more of a partisan sort of... | |
| Not even partisan in the sense of, like, Republican versus Democrat. | |
| I guess a more appropriate way to say it is that this is sort of a deep state operation that is, again, being launched in desperation, I think. | |
| I think Trump's actions have been so swift and so devastating that they have forced the hand of these people. | |
| In desperation. | |
| Like I said, the extortion mobs falling flat, Chuck Schumer leading chance in front of USAID, you know, the fake news losing its credibility, therefore incapable of stirring the same. | |
| Sort of nonsense up that they did before in 2020, which they will craft the narratives for, but they aren't ready for it. | |
| You know, you got to understand, too, the population has to be primed for these things in a lot of cases. | |
| It takes time to build up to national riots and things like that, which they did in a very slick way to a degree back in 2019 leading up into 2020. They crafted narratives. | |
| They got people on board. | |
| But remember, a lot of the organizations that were involved in the quote-unquote community organizing that led to the emergence of Antifa, the emergence of Black Lives Matter, the national riot protest type of scenarios. | |
| What was the one with the women where they wore the pink hats? | |
| I don't even know what that one was called. | |
| That was sort of a precursor to it. | |
| Pretty much all of those organizations were heavily subsidized through USAID and the NGO, you know, syndicate's money laundering schemes, right? | |
| So when you think of it that way, if Trump has, on day one, cut USAID out, and remember... | |
| You have to imagine that they're blindsided by this. | |
| They did not see this coming because, I don't know about you, but I don't really remember at any point throughout Trump's campaigning him ever really talking in detail. | |
| I mean, he talked about Doge and government efficiency and cutting out certain parts of government. | |
| But he never kind of laid out the plan as we're seeing it unfold in this sort of detail, which is it goes to what Trump has said before. | |
| You don't tell your enemies what your plans are. | |
| That's foolish, and that is, you know, stupid. | |
| It's like when they say, well, when are you going to withdraw from Iraq? | |
| It's like, well, why would I tell you that? | |
| Because then our enemies would know. | |
| Right? | |
| So it's the same principle. | |
| I think they were completely blindsided by this USAID move, Again, could not have cut deeper as far as the money, organizational money, funds, and laundering and all that stuff, what it did for these entities which were used to destabilize our country and to fight back against Trump from within our government, right? | |
| When we talked about the deep state, it wasn't that all the people in Washington, D.C., although there were some, were collectively working against Trump, and that was what, you know... | |
| It was that programs like, or agencies like the USAID were shipping money out to these NGOs, which were then funding community protests, community organizers to, you know, sit around a room and, you know, when you have, you know, the LGBTQ club at such and such place in Seattle, well, it... | |
| It was really just a matter of time before that basically turned into an Antifa, you know, an Antifa meeting, right? | |
| And they were adopting those tactics and strategies, and that's what sort of extrapolated, if you extrapolate that across the country and then, you know, put that into that sort of calculus, you see quickly how desperate they are now that Trump's cut that funding off, that avenue for... | |
| We're organizing the money to do it, to pay protesters, to pay rioters, to pay these, again, community organizers in there, to pay for the signs, to pay for the pallets of bricks which they use to break windows, etc., etc., etc., etc. | |
| On down the line, Chuck Schumer ain't going to be encouraging or influencing people to do much. | |
| I mean, how many people look at Chuck Schumer and go, man, I really want to go fight for that guy? | |
| No one, basically. | |
| He doesn't inspire anyone. | |
| But you can pay people to do this stuff, but if you cut off the funding, then they get desperate, which is where this anonymous thing comes from, which is why it has been around the last four years. | |
| Good text. | |
| Somebody else texted in from the 307 and said, gosh, Craig, why are you playing this? | |
| Sounds demonic. | |
| We are a legion. | |
| Well, that's always been their sort of catchphrase. | |
| It's, we are anonymous, we are legion, we do not forget, we do not forgive, expect us. | |
| That's how they've closed out every one of their videos since the beginning of the organization, practically. | |
| So, that's like their tagline. | |
| I don't know that it's an incantation. | |
| It might be an incantation of something dark and demonic, sure. | |
| But... | |
| The reason I'm playing this clip is not to promote their message, folks, in case you didn't understand. | |
| It's to show you what they're doing to give a warning to the public of what is to come. | |
| Because, mark my words, my prediction is as follows. | |
| In desperation, the attacks will become more malevolent. | |
| More? | |
| More? | |
| They will reach more people, and they will become much more noticeable. | |
| Okay? | |
| That's my prediction. | |
| Really quick, we have a caller. | |
| Just call it in. | |
| Caller, you're on there. | |
| You've got about ten seconds before we hit a break. | |
| What do you got? | |
| Yeah, just a comment. | |
| There was a lot of talk this weekend. | |
| Supposedly, I got a text about Ron Paul being named to Doge and auditing the Federal Reserve. | |
| I was wondering if you heard about that. | |
| Have a good day. | |
| Thank you. | |
| I've heard of it. | |
| I haven't had much detail on it yet. | |
| I don't know if there's much to even report. | |
| I think that story would be more developing today and into tomorrow, this week, maybe. | |
| It's been floating around, though. | |
| It sounds like it may be legitimate. | |
| So, thank you, caller. | |
| Appreciate it. | |
| Great. | |
| Bye. | |
| All right, folks. | |
| We're taking a break. | |
| We're going to come right back. | |
| Stay tuned. | |
| You're listening to Just Informed Talk Radio. | |
| We'll be back after the break. | |
| In his well-known devotional, My Upmost for His Highest, Oswald Chambers asks, Are you ready to be offered? | |
| Paul writes in Philippians 2.17, Are we willing to bind our worldly selves to the sacrificial altar to have the things of the flesh removed? | |
| The altar means fire, burning, and purification, and the removal of everything that God has not started, and of every attachment. | |
| That is not an attachment to God. | |
| If we wish to experience the fullness of God working in us and through us, the things of the world must be removed. | |
| As Chambers says, tell God you are ready to be offered and God will prove himself to be all you ever dreamed he would be. | |

| What it is ain't exactly clear. | |
| There's a man with a gun over there. | |
| Telling me I've got to beware. | |
| I think it's time we stop, children. | |
| what's that sound? | |
| Everybody look what's going down Welcome back to Just Forum Talk Radio. | |
| I'm your host, Craig James. | |
| Now, I want to play this. | |
| I don't want to play the clip. | |
| I want to talk about this one story here that kind of speaks to what we're seeing, right? | |
| So, in an unsurprising turn of events, Jamie Raskin came out this weekend, yesterday. | |
| Now, right after this anonymous video drops, okay, And people are sharing it online and it's kind of going semi-viral. | |
| You have Raskin going to the weekend talking, you know, narrative shows, the propagandist narrative shows that are run on the major networks, MSDNC. And this is what he's doing now. | |
| He's threatening a class-action lawsuit against the Trump administration, Elon Musk, over, guess what? | |
| An alleged data breach. | |
| Yes, this is what's being alleged. | |
| So, there is a data breach that took effect. | |
| Within the DOGE department and what they've been doing, it was basically a series of information that was hacked and leaked through that. | |
| Now, Jamie Raskin is using that as a vector of attack against the Trump administration, right, in the court system. | |
| As he calls, Elon Musk's midnight fascist crew of teenagers have been accessing everybody's computer data in the country. | |
| That's what they say, quote-unquote. | |
| But in reality, what he's talking about is the data within these government systems being breached for oversight, right, and review. | |
| But that's not how they're framing it. | |
| They're framing it as sort of The government hacking itself, and he's trying to claim that somehow this violates the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986, right? | |
| And remember that this act was basically formulated after Ronald Reagan watched War Games, that movie with Matthew Broderick at Camp David, and then went to Congress and said we need to have stricter restrictions on this. | |
| So, essentially, what is happening here is that they're, I mean, again, they're desperate. | |
| They're going after them from every vector of attack, and this is just another one of those. | |
| So, you shouldn't be surprised if this continues to spiral out of control with regard to that. | |
| And the final story I'm going to do today, because, of course, you know, it's Monday, which means in the second hour we play a sermon from Pastor D. Miller at Front Range Baptist Church, and today is no different. | |
| But the final story is this. | |
| In a post to True Social on, I think it was Friday, President Trump announced that Joe Biden's security clearance has been revoked officially. | |
| And it couldn't be more hilarious, but it's timely and it's important. | |
| However, the part where Trump references the Robert Herr report on Joe Biden being of poor memory, And incapable of being able to handle sensitive information or understand what sensitive information there was within his own control is what Trump references with regard to him removing Joe Biden's security clearance. | |
| They basically screwed themselves in so many ways. | |
| It's rather glorious. | |
| But that's it for today's stories. | |
| When we come back, we're going to go and listen to Pastor Dean Miller, Front Range Baptist Church, and his sermon, which is about Tishikis, a servant of Paul who you may not know, but... | |
| You're going to know in just a minute. | |

| All right, now we're going to listen to a sermon from Pastor Dean Miller over at Frontage Baptist Church here in Fort Collins, Colorado. | |
| And this is vital members of the body. | |
| Somebody named, one of Paul's greatest servants named Tishikis. | |
| A story you probably haven't heard. | |
| Let's listen. | |
| They were in the Old Testament when the law was made. | |
| The law was an eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth, life for a life kind of law. | |
| And if a man were to accidentally kill somebody, maybe he had an ox that accidentally gored his neighbor and he killed him. | |
| Well, that man's family who died could, under the law, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, life for life. | |
| But that man who owned the ox, he could run. | |
| To a city, and they were built all over Israel. | |
| They had these cities. | |
| He could run to a city, and he could let them know what happened. | |
| And they could let him in. | |
| And he could stay in that city of refuge, protected from the consequences of that. | |
| But, when the high priest died, they emptied those cities out. | |
| And there would be people outside those cities waiting. | |
| And they would take advantage of that when that person came out of the city of refuge. | |
| But the Bible shows us clearly that the cities of refuge were a picture of Jesus Christ. | |
| That we could run to Him and we could find forgiveness and shelter and safety in Christ. | |
| And I want to tell you something. | |
| Our high priest, he never dies. | |
| The Bible said of Jesus, he ever liveth to make intercession for us. | |
| Aren't you glad about that? | |
| And so I'm in the city of refuge and you can't get me out. | |
| And I'm going to heaven one day. | |
| Amen? | |
| To that city of refuge. | |
| And we've been talking about that on Wednesday nights. | |
| I hope you'll come Wednesday night. | |
| We're going to be talking about the New Jerusalem. | |
| And we've been studying this for a long time. | |
| But we're not going to get ahead. | |
| We're going to Colossians chapter 4. Colossians chapter 4. And in this book of Colossians, we've been in this for months and months, and in the book of Colossians, Paul is answering from prison, he's answering this church of Colossae's questions about these false teachers. | |
| False teachers came into this young church, full of young believers, and these false teachers were saying to them, hey, hey, Jesus is a great starting point. | |
| But there's so much beyond Jesus. | |
| There is so much more to learn. | |
| There's all kinds of things that you don't know. | |
| And Jesus is a good starting point. | |
| He can go along with you in your journey, but there's much more to learn. | |
| And I want to tell you, Paul answered them and said, no, no, no, friend. | |
| You can go deeper into Jesus, but you cannot go deeper than Jesus. | |
| You can go beyond in Christ, but you cannot ever go beyond Christ. | |
| For Christ is all in all. | |
| He is preeminent. | |
| He is everything. | |
| And if he lives in you, listen to me, in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. | |
| And if Christ is God in the flesh and he dwells in you, then you've been filled with the spirit of God. | |
| And today you belong to him. | |
| And you say, okay, well, how do I live the Christian life? | |
| Jesus. | |
| In what power do I live the Christian life? | |
| Jesus' power. | |
| For whom do I live the Christian life? | |
| For Christ. | |
| For whose glory do I live the Christian life? | |
| For His glory. | |
| In what strength do I live the Christian life? | |
| In His strength. | |
| Listen, friend, you cannot live the Christian life. | |
| It's impossible. | |
| If you're going to live the Christian life and I'm going to live the Christian life, it's going to require the only person who ever lived the Christian life to live it in us. | |
| Christ in you. | |
| The hope of glory. | |
| And that's the whole book of Colossians. | |
| But listen, At the end of the book of Colossians, Paul starts writing to some friends and he starts mentioning names. | |
| How many of you have ever noticed in Paul's epistles, he closes by mentioning all these people's names. | |
| Anybody ever notice that? | |
| Okay. | |
| Well, he does that and I'll tell you why. | |
| Because that's what the New Testament church is. | |
| The church is Jesus and relationships. | |
| The church is people in Christ. | |
| Join together as members of His body, He being the head, they being members, and they are joined. | |
| Listen, the Bible in the New Testament never talks about Christians singularly. | |
| There's no such thing as a lone ranger Christian. | |
| The Bible talks about Christians as we, as us. | |
| As a body, as an army, as a flock, as a building. | |
| He speaks about us in the plurality of members. | |
| And sometimes when we come to the end of these books, we just gloss over these names. | |
| They're like reading a genealogy. | |
| Who wants to read the genealogies? | |
| And so we just kind of read through them very quickly or we gloss over them. | |
| But I'm kind of weird. | |
| I love these passages of scriptures. | |
| I love when we start talking about Tychicus, Onesimus, Epaphras. | |
| Aristarchus. | |
| Apparently us was a great suffix to names back in those days. | |
| Justice. | |
| I can't remember all the other names in there. | |
| We're going to get to them. | |
| Nymphus. | |
| Not today. | |
| But we're going to look at two of them today. | |
| But listen to me. | |
| Paul was writing to these beloved brothers. | |
| Watch this. | |
| I went through... | |
| Romans chapter 16, the end of Paul's epistles, and I wrote down all the names, crossed out the ones that were duplicitous, and I just began to circle all the singular names that Paul mentioned. | |
| And you don't quote me on it, but in my estimation, it's right at 100 people Paul mentioned in his letters. | |
| 100 people Paul mentioned in his letters. | |
| You say, Pastor, why is this important? | |
| Well, I'll tell you why. | |
| Everybody knows Paul and people know Peter. | |
| People know John. | |
| People know Billy Graham. | |
| People know D.L. Moody. | |
| People know Charles Spurgeon. | |
| People walk in this church and they see all the people singing up here and they hear me preach and they think that's the church. | |
| Listen to me. | |
| There's an army of people behind all of those who were faithful people in the Lord Jesus Christ who advanced the gospel. | |
| And we're going to look at them. | |
| How many of you have ever heard a sermon on Tychicus? | |
| Anybody ever heard a sermon on Tychicus? | |
| Well, today is your lucky day. | |
| Today you're going to hear about Tychicus. | |
| Look at the Bible, Colossians 4 and verse 7. All my state shall Tychicus declare unto you, who is a beloved brother and a faithful minister and a fellow servant in the Lord, whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that he might know your estate and comfort your hearts. | |
| With Onesimus, our faithful... | |
| And beloved brother, who is one of you, he was a hometown boy from Colossae, he's one of you, they shall make known unto you all things which are done here. | |
| He said, I want you to know, I'm sending some people. | |
| I'm sending Tychicus, I'm sending Onesimus. | |
| Sometimes we just read right over that, but there's some depth in this. | |
| Tychicus is mentioned six times in the New Testament. | |
| Five times there's a description given. | |
| Tychicus was a man who was saved. | |
| During Paul's ministry in Ephesus. | |
| Paul was at Ephesus longer than any other place he was ministering in his third missionary journey. | |
| Paul went to Ephesus. | |
| He was there for a couple of years. | |
| Paul ministered faithfully there and some great fruit came from that. | |
| In fact, Philemon was one of those men. | |
| You say, well, who's Philemon? | |
| Philemon is the man who owns the house that this church of Colossae is meeting in. | |
| He was a wealthy businessman and he opened the door to his house for these new believers to come and be able to gather at his house to have church. | |
| Philemon. | |
| Another man that was saved in Ephesus, his name was Epaphras. | |
| And Epaphras was saved in Ephesus. | |
| And he got saved. | |
| And Epaphras went back to Colossae and began to win his family and friends and neighbors to Christ. | |
| And he was the pastor of this church in Philemon's house. | |
| But another man got saved in Paul's ministry at Ephesus and it was Tychicus. | |
| Tychicus didn't go back home. | |
| Tychicus stayed with Paul. | |
| All right. | |
| We're coming right back. | |
| We're going to keep listening to this sermon. | |
| I mean, Tychicus, the story of Tychicus is something you all need to hear. | |
| It's a story we can all relate to. | |
| Stay tuned. | |
| We're coming back. | |

| Since the closing of the gold window in 1971, the Federal Reserve has led the way in the explosion of debt and the devaluing of your money. | |

| It's time to come out of all of that. | |
| Welcome back to Just Form Talk Radio. | |
| Let's go right back to Pastor Dean Miller from Front Range Baptist Church right here in Fort Collins, Colorado and his message on Tishikis. | |
| Listen to this. | |
| I want to follow you and I want to help you. | |
| We don't often know this, but let me just tell you, following the Apostle Paul was not easy. | |
| He was going everywhere, preaching everywhere. | |
| And listen, when Paul came to a town, They were not holding up banners out there saying, Welcome, Paul. | |
| Can't wait to hear you preach. | |
| There were crowds of people, but they were throwing stones at him. | |
| Paul didn't come into a town and go check out the Hilton Hotel and make sure it was nice. | |
| Paul went to the jail and thought, Okay, that's where I'm going to stay tonight. | |
| You read 2 Corinthians 11 where Paul talked about, I was beaten with stripes. | |
| I was in danger and peril of my countrymen and my brethren. | |
| I was in fastings without food. | |
| I was in dangers in the desert. | |
| I spent three nights and three days in the deep holding on to a board. | |
| I was stoned and rejected and hauled before kings. | |
| Listen, Paul's ministry was not one of just grandeur and glamour. | |
| It was difficult. | |
| And you know who was there for all of that? | |
| Tychicus. | |
| Tychicus was there. | |
| When Paul went to prison in Rome the first time, while he was waiting to be set free, and he had to wait for two years before he went and stood and made his... | |
| Remember, we went through this in the book of Acts years and years ago. | |
| He went and stood before Felix and Agrippa, and he made his appeal to Caesar. | |
| You remember that? | |
| And then Paul went on ship to Rome and then was imprisoned in Rome the second time. | |
| Well, Paul was in prison in Rome the first time and then came back to Caesarea. | |
| You remember the study of Acts. | |
| In those imprisonments, Tychicus was there. | |
| Oftentimes willingly imprisoned with Paul to be able to minister to him and serve him and meet his needs and help him. | |
| that titchicus was a man who labored with the apostle paul i want to show you a couple things about titchicus today look at look at verse 7 all my state shall titchicus declare unto you who is a beloved brother and a faithful minister and fellow servant in the lord number one i want you to see this about titchicus's life And by the way, this applies to you, and we're going to make it very personal today, as always. | |
| But Tychicus, number one, was a faithful servant. | |
| He was a faithful servant. | |
| Listen, Tychicus had really two jobs in the Apostle Paul's ministry. | |
| Number one, he delivered mail. | |
| Paul wrote these letters and Tychicus delivered them. | |
| In fact, Tychicus is the one that took the letter of Ephesus to the Ephesians. | |
| Tychicus carried this letter of Colossians to the Colossians. | |
| Now you think, what's the big deal about that? | |
| I mean, he's just carrying a letter. | |
| What's the big deal about that? | |
| Anybody could do that. | |
| Yeah, but anybody didn't do that. | |
| Titicus did that. | |
| And I'll tell you this, what's important about a letter if it never gets delivered? | |
| How many of you have ever been waiting on something to get delivered and it never got delivered? | |
| Anybody ever had that happen? | |
| Show of hands. | |
| USPS? You look at the USPS tracking and it says, we can't find your package. | |
| And then one day it just shows up. | |
| They have no idea where it is. | |
| They don't know what they're doing. | |
| And it just gets there. | |
| But I'll tell you this, a letter is not important unless the letter gets delivered. | |
| And you know, Tychicus could have been thinking to himself, you know, I've been with Paul through all this stuff. | |
| Everybody knows Paul. | |
| What do I do? | |
| I just carry this letter. | |
| I mean, if you were to go to Tychicus and say, hey, Tychicus, you know that letter that you're carrying right now? | |
| Can you believe that one of these days, millions of people are going to carry those letters around in leather-bound books? | |
| And he'd be like, come on. | |
| Whatever. | |
| Just a letter to Colossae. | |
| Now listen, you're carrying around Titicus' letters. | |
| His name is memorialized forever in your Bible because he delivered the mail. | |
| That's what he did. | |
| He was faithful to do it. | |
| I'll tell you another thing he did. | |
| He was not only a mail carrier, he was a reporter. | |
| His job was to go down there and tell them all the state of the Apostle Paul. | |
| Now why was that important? | |
| Paul didn't write in his letters all the things that he needed. | |
| But he wanted them to go get a report. | |
| People wanted to hear how Paul was doing. | |
| Had Paul been sick? | |
| Does Paul need money? | |
| Does Paul need food? | |
| What does Paul need? | |
| And Tychicus would go share all that Paul's doing. | |
| And he would say to them, hey, listen, pray for Paul. | |
| He had a fever when I left. | |
| He needs some medication. | |
| Or, hey, pray for Paul. | |
| He's chained to these Roman centurions every day. | |
| And he's praying to win them to Christ. | |
| Pray for Paul. | |
| Pray for him. | |
| Let's all gather together. | |
| Paul's having great ministry. | |
| Many in Caesar's household have been saved. | |
| You're not going to believe the people that are coming in and out of God. | |
| Let's pray for Paul. | |
| And he was the one making sure that those churches didn't forget about Paul in chains. | |
| How important was that? | |
| And he was faithful. | |
| And by the way, can I tell you what God is looking for today? | |
| God's looking for faithful people. | |
| It's required of a steward that a man be found... | |
| Everybody talk to me now. | |
| It's required of a steward that a man be found... | |
| Faithful. | |
| And when you get to heaven, and you will if you're saved, and you stand before Jesus, and you will if you're saved, and you give an account for your stewardship, and you will if you're saved, you are not going to hear from Jesus, well done thou good and famous servant. | |
| No, no, no. | |
| It's well done thou good and faithful servant. | |
| Billy Graham isn't going to get more rewards because he led more people to Christ. | |
| Then the guy who was sweeping out the Billy Graham headquarters and the people who were arranging his travel and booking his hotels and making sure that his needs were met and the advance team that was setting things up and making sure the Colosseums were in order, he's not going to get more rewards because he's preached the gospel to more people. | |
| He's going to get rewards because he faithfully preached the gospel and those people are going to get rewards because they faithfully did their duties to allow the gospel to faithfully be preached. | |
| There are far more Tychicus's than there are the Apostle Paul's. | |
| And the problem with many in church is we want to be the Paul and not the Tychicus. | |
| We're going to be surprised when we get to heaven. | |
| People that we thought, oh man, our pastor's going to get tons of rewards. | |
| When you get to heaven, you're going to be looking for me. | |
| Is he here? | |
| And I'll be there. | |
| I'll just be somewhere in the back. | |
| But the people who set up these chairs yesterday, The people who cleaned the bathrooms. | |
| The people who put salt down this morning early. | |
| The people who are caring for our babies and changing diapers. | |
| The people who ran the shuttles. | |
| The people who are tending to our children. | |
| People through the week who kept up the grounds and fixed water leaks. | |
| Changed out tiles in the ceilings. | |
| Patched up things in the walls. | |
| Got stains out of carpets. | |
| Passed out gospel tracts. | |
| One of our men had cancer and he's all by himself in the world. | |
| He's a man alone. | |
| And the Bible says of God that God likes to take the solitary and put them into families. | |
| God brought him here. | |
| I got to lead him to Christ. | |
| Baptize him. | |
| He'd been going through cancer treatment to weaken his body. | |
| Had a very successful business. | |
| He was walking down the stairs at his house a number of months ago. | |
| Knees gave out. | |
| He fell. | |
| Tore everything in one of his knees. | |
| Everything. | |
| Had a required surgery. | |
| When he got home, everything he's got is upstairs. | |
| So he could go up the stairs forward, come down the stairs backwards. | |
| And in the process that he fell, tore everything in his arm. | |
| Had to have surgery this last week. | |
| I went to see him and prayed with him. | |
| I was sitting in his house talking with him. | |
| And he shared with me some things I never knew. | |
| It's been months now that he's been going through these things, not being able to tend for himself. | |
| And he, with tears in his eyes, said, Pastor, can I tell you about our church? | |
| I said, yeah. | |
| He said, people have brought meals. | |
| He said, men from my Sunday school class come after work and they walk my dog. | |
| And then he said, they come back and they go in my backyard and they pick up after the dog. | |
| They fix things around my house. | |
| Ladies have come from the church and from my Sunday school class and cleaned my house. | |
| And he just went to tears. | |
| I wouldn't know what to do. | |
| What would I do? | |
| And I thought, that's the church. | |
| That's the Tychicus. | |
| There are Tychicus's in this church that are laboring, going to people's bedsides, loving them, helping them, giving money, taking care of people who have needs. | |
| Listen, Tychicus was faithful. | |
| God's not looking for the famous. | |
| God's looking for the faithful. | |
| Every one of you in this room possess two abilities to make you valuable to your church. | |
| Every one of you. | |
| You say, I don't have a whole lot of gifts. | |
| There's not a whole lot I can't sing. | |
| I can't speak. | |
| There's not a lot of things I can do. | |
| Every one of you have two great abilities that will make you valuable to your church. | |
| Number one. | |
| Availability. | |
| And number two, dependability. | |
| The two greatest abilities, availability and dependability. | |
| Tychicus made himself available to God and he was a man dependable. | |
| I want to tell you today what God's calling you to be. | |
| God's calling you to be faithful to his work. | |
| God's looking for faithful. | |
| Can people count on you? | |
| Can people count on you? | |
| That's the value. | |
| You know, today is a faithless generation. | |
| People are not faithful today. | |
| They're not faithful to their vows. | |
| They're not faithful to their commitments. | |
| That's why when you and I go to buy something, we've got to sign 4,500 pieces of paper. | |
| It used to be you could buy something and you could shake a man's hand, look him in the eye and say, I'll pay you for that. | |
| And a man could keep his word. | |
| But today, because of the lack of faithfulness in our culture, we have massive commitments that we have to jump through because people don't keep their word. | |
| People stand at altars all the time and say, till death do us part. | |
| And what they really meant was, until debt do us part. | |
| Or until difficulty. | |
| Until we part. | |
| Or I really didn't mean that. | |
| I didn't mean the for better or for worse. | |
| I didn't mean the in sickness and the in health. | |
| And people break their vows. | |
| You know what God's looking for today? | |
| God is looking for people to be faithful. | |
| Every man in their place doing what God has called them to do. | |
| Paul could not have done the things that Paul did without Tychicus. | |
| He was faithful. | |
| Number two, he was an encourager. | |
| You can read about this in Ephesians 6, then you can read about it here in Colossians 4 that Paul said. | |
| said look at it in verse number verse number 8 whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose that he might know your estate and comfort your hearts that word comfort there means to encourage your heart And he says the same thing in the book of Ephesians. | |
| I'm sending them there to encourage you. | |
| Encourage your heart. | |
| You know what he was? | |
| Tychicus was just a guy who encouraged. | |
| Can I tell you? | |
| There were many times that Paul was discouraged along the way. | |
| And I promise you, Tychicus was his encourager. | |
| There were times that Paul may have been, you know, Paul wasn't always upbeat. | |
| A lot of times he was downbeat. | |
| Because he got beat. | |
| And Titicus came and put salve on the wounds and said, Paul, God used you today. | |
| God's doing a work here. | |
| He encouraged his heart. | |
| He sent him there to encourage. | |
| Let me ask you a question. | |
| Are you encouraging others around you? | |
| You know, there aren't many people who love to attend a church. | |
| There are many people who come to this church that they come and they love to hear me preach, but they would never want me to be their pastor. | |
| They come and they attend. | |
| But no one's coming with them. | |
| There's not anyone else being encouraged to do more for the Lord. | |
| The Bible tells us in the book of Hebrews chapter 10 and verse 24 that we are to provoke one another unto love and to good works. | |
| We're to provoke each other. | |
| We're to encourage each other. | |
| We're to spur each other on. | |
| Let's love more. | |
| Let's do good works. | |
| Let's do other things for God. | |
| Hey, yesterday I got a text and I got this text and it said, Pastor, you're not going to believe this. | |
| I invited a guy to come and it came to a prayer men's prayer breakfast and sat with another new guy and then they went over and helped to set up chairs and it was really encouraging to see new people and and I thought what a man to encourage younger Christians to come along and get involved and find a place to serve that's what the church is encourage. | |
| Encouraging. | |
| Getting other people involved. | |
| Listen, are you inviting anybody to a connection group? | |
| Do you belong to a connection group? | |
| Are you inviting anybody to come with you? | |
| Are you encouraging your teacher? | |
| Are you encouraging people to come to church? | |
| Are you finding a place to work? | |
| Are you encouraging those that are working? | |
| Listen, this is what Titicus did. | |
| He went to comfort their hearts and to encourage the church. | |
| Alright, we're coming right back. | |

| 1360khnc.com Welcome | |
| back to Just Forum Talk Radio. | |
| I'm your host, Craig James. | |
| Let's go right back to Pastor Dean Miller and his sermon from Front Range Baptist Church here in Fort Collins, Colorado. | |
| I promise you, this Church of Colossae was very discouraged. | |
| When he walked in with that letter and he said, hey guys, let's read this. | |
| Epaphras, lead them in this. | |
| Show them what the Bible says here. | |
| And then he just went around and encouraged them. | |
| Who knew Paul intimately, who knew the Lord intimately, shared his experiences with them, and encouraged that church. | |
| So let me tell you something. | |
| You and I have an obligation from the Lord to be encouraging one another in the work of the Lord. | |
| It's really interesting. | |
| David, King David, was out on a mission, and when he came home, the enemy, the Amalekites had come in, And wiped out the city of Ziklag. | |
| Took everything. | |
| Took their wives, took their children, took all their stuff. | |
| And David had been at war. | |
| And David numbered his men. | |
| There were 600 of them. | |
| They said, we're going after them and we're getting everything back. | |
| And they went after them to war. | |
| And as they went, some of the men said, David, David, I'm too exhausted. | |
| I don't have enough strength to lift a spear. | |
| I don't have enough strength to get across that river. | |
| And there were 200 of the men that were too weary to go. | |
| 400 were able to go. | |
| David said, it's okay. | |
| I'm going to take the 400 with me. | |
| You 200, you stay by here and you protect our supplies. | |
| You stay by the stuff. | |
| That's what the King James, the King James says, the stuff. | |
| They stayed by the stuff. | |
| He said, you guys stay by the stuff. | |
| And we're going this way. | |
| We're going to go to war. | |
| And David went with his 400 men. | |
| And they... | |
| Chased them all down, got everybody back, got all the wires, all the kids, all the stuff, and they came back. | |
| Well, as they're riding back, the 400 men are getting a little proud. | |
| Hey, man, did you see that? | |
| I took that guy down. | |
| And I took his stuff. | |
| And as they're riding back, they start getting the idea. | |
| Hey, hey, hey, David. | |
| Hey, David. | |
| We don't need to go back to those guys back there and split all this. | |
| We get to keep what we got. | |
| And David stopped the whole caravan and said, hey, uh-uh. | |
| We went to battle. | |
| And we were able to go to battle because those guys protected our stuff. | |
| And when we get back, we're going to split the things with them because... | |
| They were in ministry as much as we were. | |
| And that has been, the Bible says, that that became a word in Israel that was passed along. | |
| That just because somebody went to war and fought this battle doesn't mean that they get more of a reward for somebody who stayed back and stayed by the stuff. | |
| You know what the church needs? | |
| The church needs some people who can just stay by the stuff. | |
| Church needs people to encourage others. | |
| I may not be able to go, but I'm going to encourage you. | |
| You can go. | |
| Listen, this is what Tychicus did. | |
| He was faithful. | |
| He was an encourager. | |
| Number three, very quickly, and I love this about Tychicus. | |
| He was willing to go where he was needed. | |
| Now, he was traveling everywhere with the Apostle Paul, but let me just give you some quick understandings of what Paul did. | |
| Paul was sending Tychicus to Colossae here. | |
| Earlier, Paul sent Tychicus to Ephesus there. | |
| But there was a time when Paul said to Tychicus, hey, I need to see, I need to see Timothy. | |
| Timothy is my son of the faith. | |
| I need to see him. | |
| And he's got my coat. | |
| He needs to bring my coat for the winter. | |
| He's got parchments. | |
| He needs to bring those parchments so that I have something to occupy my time. | |
| And I'm in prison and I need my coat. | |
| I just need to see Timothy. | |
| I need to see him. | |
| I need to encourage him. | |
| I need to be encouraged. | |
| I need to see him. | |
| He's my son of the faith. | |
| So he said, Tychicus, I want you to go to Timothy's church and I want you to be the interim pastor. | |
| I want you to take that church and shepherd it and oversee it so Timothy can come. | |
| Later he said to Tychicus, hey, I need to see Titus. | |
| I need you to go to Crete. | |
| And I need you to pastor his church for a while. | |
| So that Titus could come and see me. | |
| Now I don't even know, I've never heard a sermon Tychicus preached. | |
| I don't even know if the guy was a good preacher. | |
| I don't even know if he could sing or I don't know anything about him. | |
| But I know that he was willing to go wherever Paul sent him to go. | |
| He was willing to go to Ephesus. | |
| He was willing to go to Crete. | |
| He was willing to go to Colossae. | |
| He was willing to be an interim pastor, to take on the load and the responsibility, to shepherd and minister and care for the needs of a church while the pastor was away. | |
| Are you willing to serve the Lord anywhere He asks you to serve? | |
| Are you willing to do whatever God asks you to do? | |
| Are you asking the Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? | |
| Lord, what do you want me to do in the church? | |
| Lord, what is it that you've called me to do? | |
| How can I be a blessing? | |
| What ministry can I have? | |
| Where can I serve? | |
| He was just willing to follow the Spirit of God. | |
| That's Tychicus. | |
| Let me very quickly give you a couple things about Onesimus and then we're going to go home. | |
| Paul said about Onesimus, he said, In verse 9, Onesimus is a faithful and beloved brother who is one of you. | |
| They shall make known unto you all things which are done here. | |
| Now, if Tychicus is the faithful servant, Onesimus is the freed slave. | |
| Who is Onesimus? | |
| Well, we learn about him in many places in the Bible, but Onesimus, listen. | |
| Onesimus was a slave. | |
| And it was common in the Roman Empire. | |
| And his master may have been an unjust master and not treated him well. | |
| We do know that later in the scripture we found out that Onesimus was useless to his master. | |
| He was an unprofitable servant to his master. | |
| He was useless. | |
| Troublemaker. | |
| And he stole a bunch of stuff from his master and he took off and ran away and he went to Rome looking for a new life. | |
| And he found it. | |
| In prison. | |
| Because he got put in prison with the Apostle Paul. | |
| And Paul said, what you in for? | |
| And he said, I ran away from my master. | |
| Oh, where are you from? | |
| Colossae. | |
| Paul said, I've never been to Colossae. | |
| I want to go. | |
| But I've got friends in Colossae. | |
| I know some people in Colossae. | |
| Who was your master there? | |
| Philemon. | |
| Paul said, I know Philemon. | |
| I led Philemon to Jesus. | |
| What does that mean? | |
| Let me tell you. | |
| And Paul led. | |
| Onesimus to Christ. | |
| He said, he's my son in the faith. | |
| Led him to Jesus. | |
| Discipled him. | |
| Trained him. | |
| Taught him. | |
| And he said, he's a dear brother. | |
| He is a faithful servant. | |
| He is my friend. | |
| And he said, I'm sending him back with Tychicus. | |
| Back to Colossae. | |
| Do you understand what kind of courage that took for Onesimus to go back home? | |
| In the Roman Empire days, if you were a runaway slave and you got caught and you were returned to your master, if he was in a good mood, he would take a branding iron and put an F in the middle of your forehead. | |
| Fugitivus. | |
| Runaway. | |
| Or he would take an iron and put a CF. Beware of the thief. | |
| If he was in a bad mood, he could beat you to death or have you crucified. | |
| And Onesimus to go home and to face that was a identification of a changed life. | |
| There's something about a transformed life that we're willing to go back and make wrongs right. | |
| Zacchaeus did it. | |
| Many years ago, I led a guy to the Lord. | |
| I won't use his name. | |
| I led a guy to the Lord. | |
| He was the number one methamphetamine producer in our area of Mississippi. | |
| This guy was brilliant, but stupid. | |
| He was missing a big toe, a finger, he shot in the leg, his body was all beat up. | |
| I asked him one time, how did you lose that toe? | |
| He said, I was hooked on pain pills, and I wouldn't give him any more pain pills, so I got a job at this place that had these big oxygen tanks, and we had to roll them on these big racks. | |
| All right, we'll be right back. | |
| Any major disaster, especially weather-related, when the power goes out, can cause people to suddenly panic. | |
| Within hours, grocery store shelves in your area can be picked clean. | |
| Food supply lines get interrupted, and food is hard to find. | |
| At that point, it's too late to do anything about it. | |
| You must survive only on the food you already have in your home or risk waiting for the government to respond while you're standing in food lines. | |
| So ask yourself, do you have enough food in your home to last for weeks or months? | |
| That's why the smart move is to secure your family's personal supply of the most reliable emergency food you can buy. | |
| Having at least four weeks' worth of food is not a luxury. | |
| It's mandatory. | |

| Welcome back to Just Form Talk Radio. | |
| Going right back to Pastor Dean Miller. | |
| He said, I got that thing right over my foot. | |
| foot and I pulled the lever so it would fall on my foot so I'd have to go to the hospital and get pain pills I mean that's a bad addiction I said, how'd you get shot? | |
| Who shot you? | |
| He said, me. | |
| He said, how'd you shoot yourself? | |
| He said, cleaning my gun. | |
| But I wanted pain pills, so I just... | |
| And he was brilliant. | |
| The guy knew how to manufacture methamphetamines with kitchen chemicals. | |
| I sat out of his double wide one day, and one night, late in the night, he got saved. | |
| He came to church, he got baptized. | |
| There were people in the church that were wondering, what is he doing here? | |
| This is a bad hombre. | |
| One day I got a phone call from the Covington County Jail. | |
| Collect. | |
| So I accepted charges. | |
| Yes. | |
| Preacher? | |
| I said, yeah. | |
| And he named me, he told me his name. | |
| This is, I'm in jail. | |
| I said, what are you in jail for, man? | |
| What do you do? | |
| He said, no, you don't understand. | |
| I had warrants out everywhere. | |
| And I couldn't sleep. | |
| And I asked the Lord, what do I do about this? | |
| The Lord said, you go make it right. | |
| So I drove up here yesterday and I turned myself in. | |
| I may be here for a long time. | |
| He was. | |
| He got out a few years later. | |
| Had lost his family. | |
| Made things right with his grandparents. | |
| He was working a good job with the highway department. | |
| A drunk driver hit him and killed him. | |
| He's in heaven today. | |
| I want to tell you something about that guy. | |
| He was a changed man. | |
| He was a changed man. | |
| God saved him and changed him and used him. | |
| I preached his funeral. | |
| You would not believe the crowd we had at that funeral. | |
| And I preached the ever-living Dickens out of those people. | |
| We had people getting saved. | |
| It was unbelievable. | |
| And they were saved not because of my preaching, but because of his changed life. | |
| The greatest testimony to the gospel of Jesus Christ is the transformed life. | |
| Onesimus went home. | |
| Paul said, and guess what, Philemon, when you get him, don't put him back out in the slave quarter. | |
| Give him my bedroom that you've made for me if I ever get out of here. | |
| And let him sleep in my bed, and if he ever spends any money, put it to my account. | |
| I'll take care of it. | |
| He is my blessed brother and faithful servant and fellow laborer in Christ. | |
| Aren't you glad that Paul didn't just say he's a lowly servant? | |
| He said he's a fellow servant. | |
| He's a fellow laborer with Christ. | |
| Ah, listen. | |
| There's a joy. | |
| There's a joy in seeing God change lives like this. | |
| And there's a place in this church for people who were once an Onesimus, who are now saved. | |
| And this church has no right to look at somebody and brand them on the forehead and say, this is what you used to be. | |
| Let me tell you something. | |
| Such were some of you. | |
| But we are washed. | |
| And regenerated. | |
| And made new. | |
| And we've been washed and redeemed and cleansed. | |
| And God takes an old man and makes him a new man and changes him. | |
| I thank God that my old daddy who's preaching today used to be an old drunk in the gutter somewhere. | |
| But God changed him and saved him and made him new and took him out of the gutter and put him in a pulpit and used him to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ. | |
| Thank God for a changed life. | |
| Tychicus and Onesimus, that's what our churches are to be filled with and we're to have a relationship in this church. | |
| We're to have a bond one to another. | |
| We're not to be just floaters and sideline sitters and blue chair warmers. | |
| We're to be members of the body one to another. | |
| I'm glad to be in a church with someone named Onesimus. | |
| I'm thankful that I'm a member of a church that God could save him. | |
| Listen, you know what Onesimus was? | |
| He was one of those guys that is, if God could save me, he can save anybody. | |
| The Lord's not looking for righteous people to be saved. | |
| He came looking for sinners. | |
| Aren't you glad that God changes names? | |
| Your name was Jacob, trickster, deceiver, surplanter. | |
| Oh, but I've changed you to Israel, prince with God. | |
| You were Saul of Tarshish, the murderer, the Pharisee, the tyrant, the havoc wreaker in the church, but you were Saul of Tarshish, the murderer, but now you're Paul, the apostle, the missionary. | |
| You used to be Cephas, Simon, but now you're Peter. | |
| Oh, listen. | |
| God changes names. | |
| Let me give you four things. | |
| Rapid fire. | |
| Write them down from this lesson. | |
| This is for you. | |
| This is for you. | |
| This is where Tychicus and Onesimus become you. | |
| Are you ready? | |
| Write them down. | |
| Think about them. | |
| Number one, unknown does not mean unimportant. | |
| Unknown does not mean unimportant. | |
| We don't know who's keeping the nursery today, but I want to tell you, when you go back there and there's not an extra load that you're taking home, thank God for that nursery worker. | |
| And listen, people think, well, who's the pastor of that church? | |
| Well, Dean Miller. | |
| Well, people might know my name, but they don't know the name of a hundred other people who work the ministry here and get the job done. | |
| Listen, I thank God for our staff, and I thank God for what they do and the hard work that they put in to ministering and loving and counseling and helping and helping the ministry go on. | |
| And there may be people that don't even know what these guys do, but I want to tell you, unknown does not mean unimportant. | |
| Many years ago, up in the Alps, It was a beautiful little city. | |
| A beautiful little valley, rather. | |
| And there was a little town down there. | |
| And they had a spring in that little town that was just muddy and nasty looking. | |
| And it was in a beautiful, pristine place. | |
| And they didn't understand it. | |
| And a guy showed up at town one day and he said, Hey, I can fix that spring. | |
| And they said, Okay, you can fix the spring. | |
| He said, I can fix that spring. | |
| And so he disappeared. | |
| And he went up in the mountains and he went up to where there were pools of water and run off up there and he cleaned out all the old dead leaves from these pools and he cleaned out all the branches and twigs and nasty stuff that was there and he was just up in the mountains cleaning and caretaking and a few months later the water began to flow clear and beautiful and swans came and animals showed up and Pretty soon, | |
| tourists began to come and restaurants were built. | |
| People put their paddle wheels out there. | |
| It was a beautiful, quaint little town in the Alps. | |
| It was gorgeous. | |
| A couple years went by and they had their little town business meeting. | |
| Anybody ever been a part of one of those? | |
| Alright, we're coming back. | |
| Stay tuned. | |

| Most people don't even know that the courts have already ruled. | |
| Once money is deposited into the bank, the bank owns the money, and the depositor is merely an unsecured creditor of the bank. | |
| Which means if the bank goes under, you get paid last. | |
| After the financial crisis, instead of breaking up too big to fail, the government and the Federal Reserve created Dodd-Frank and made too big to fail banks even bigger, while putting your deposits more at risk. | |

| I'm a new creation. | |
| Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. | |
| Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. | |
| But it rose until I stumbled and made my mistakes. | |
| Then I could know in my soul how amazing was great. | |
| Welcome back to Just Form Talk Radios. | |
| Let's go back to Pastor Miller. | |
| Sometimes churches do it, and they're looking through the budget, and one of the old businessmen said, Hey, what's this expense of the keeper of the spring? | |
| Anybody know? | |
| Nobody knew. | |
| That's a lot of money for something we don't know about. | |
| I vote we remove this from the budget. | |
| All in favor? | |
| Aye. | |
| Aye. | |
| Cut. | |
| For the first few months, nobody noticed anything about it. | |
| Thought, man, we're saving money. | |
| Pretty soon, the spring began to muddy up. | |
| Foul odor. | |
| Fish began to die. | |
| Animals began to leave. | |
| Somebody said, what's wrong with our spring? | |
| And somebody said, well, you cut the budget for the spring keeper. | |
| And so we'll go find him and put him back in place. | |
| And they put him back on the job and the spring came back to life. | |
| And just because you're unknown doesn't mean you're unimportant. | |
| Unknown is not unimportant. | |
| Number two, little things done for God have long-lasting effects. | |
| Did you hear me? | |
| Little things done for God have long-lasting effects. | |
| You say, I really can't do much in the church. | |
| Well, do what you can. | |
| Because little things have long-lasting effects. | |
| It's the little lunches in the Lord's hand that feed a lot of people. | |
| It's Jesus at a dinner party when he's sitting at the table with the people and here comes a woman in with an alabaster box filled with fragrance and she breaks it open and anoints his feet and they say, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, that's expensive. | |
| You could have sold that and given it to the poor. | |
| And Jesus said, the poor you have with you always. | |
| She doesn't always have me with her. | |
| She's anointed my body for burial. | |
| And what she has done, wherever the gospel is preached, this will be declared as a memorial to her. | |
| Little things done for God have long-lasting effects. | |
| Somebody went by and picked up the backyard after a man's dogs. | |
| That may seem like a little thing, but I want to tell you, we have no idea what the effects will be in 10 years, in 15 years, in 20 years. | |
| Little things done for God have long-lasting effects. | |
| I want to say number three. | |
| God can change and use anybody. | |
| Somebody say amen right there. | |
| God can change and use anybody. | |
| God can change people's lives. | |
| Listen, this is a world today. | |
| I want to tell you, listen, you look at the culture that we have today. | |
| When people get saved, I want to tell you, if we're reaching this, if we're reaching our culture, and we're reaching our community for Christ, churches are going to look a lot different. | |
| They're not going to look like a museum of saints. | |
| They're going to look like a triage unit in the hospital. | |
| All right. | |
| Well, that was an amazing sermon. | |
| Again, Pastor Dean Miller, Fort Collins, Front Range Baptist Church right here in Fort Collins on the Front Range, Colorado. | |
| But thank you guys for tuning in. | |
| We'll be back tomorrow, same time, same place, God willing. | |
| We'll have a lot more to cover, but I hope those words spoke to your heart. | |
| And, of course, we'll be back to do it all again tomorrow. | |
| But thank you guys for listening. | |
| We will pick it up where we left off on the next one. | |
| Until then, I'm your host, Craig James, as Just Informed Talk Radio. | |
| We'll see you on the next one. | |
| Godspeed and God bless each and every one of you patriots. | |
