Welcome everyone to Brighton Conversations.
I'm Mike Adams, the health ranger, the founder of brighteon.com.
And in this series, as you've probably seen, we interview some of the most intriguing thought leaders for our nation.
And today we're joined by a very special and truly remarkable individual who I've known for many years.
His name is Casey Krejci.
He's the founder of Living Fuel at livingfuel.com, as you might have guessed, which is a superfood company, very, very high quality, nutritious superfood meals and other products.
And he's over the years, he's worked to really help nourish people through good nutrition, but he's also helping now to awaken people to the spiritual war that's happening in our country and And that's our topic and focus today is the spiritual war and what's necessary for America to survive and defeat evil because evil appears to be rising in our streets across this country.
He joins us today for this intriguing conversation.
Thank you, Casey Krejci.
It's an honor and a blessing to have you on today.
Well, Mike, you know, I love you and your wife and it's just a pleasure to be with you.
We're just behind you and all that you do.
Well, thank you so much, Casey.
I greatly appreciate you taking the time to join us today and all the work that you do.
Now, you're part of a very interesting project, which is the main reason why I really wanted to talk to you here.
Now, it's not ready for public launch yet, but it's going to be called The Great Awakening Project.
Could you give us a little bit of just overview of what that is and when perhaps people can expect more public announcements about it?
Well, you know, you have had really interesting interviews with Fred Markert, and it's really fascinating.
I just love to see Fred, but you and Fred, man, that was deep water.
So if no one has watched those, anyone has not watched those interviews with you, I don't know what you called them so they could find them, but those are just incredibly important interviews to watch.
Yeah, they're part of this series.
People can look up his name, Markert, M-A-R-K-E-R-T, on Brighttown.com, and they can watch those.
Yeah, thanks for the plug.
Those were really fascinating conversations.
He's an expert in the rise and fall of civilizations.
Yeah, so you two are very deep waters.
That's very important to watch.
So I'm going to give you more of a, I don't know, of a normal person's perspective here.
You know, health and nutrition, you know, and truth is really what drives me, and that's why we get along so well.
So there's another area a lot of people don't know about me.
I'm an ordained minister also and study the Word of God.
I'm not a theologian, but the Word of God matters.
And even when I do health research, I'll filter it back through the Word of God and say, okay, this doctor says this.
And, uh, but the word of God says this, like for instance, there's a, there's a diet system out there that talks about, you can't eat nuts and seeds and all sorts of other things.
And, and, but the word of God says you do, you know?
And so, so like in Genesis one 29 talks about specifically nuts and seeds and the kind of things that are that, uh, you know, fruit bearing trees and so on.
Um, but what I want to say right now, and what's, what's that?
Well, what kind of diet would say you shouldn't eat nuts and seeds?
Well, you know, I don't want to disparage anybody, but...
No, I mean, but that really exists?
It's a really famous diet right now.
Wow!
And yeah, so I don't like to trash people.
I just want to say that, you know, truth is, you know, if you see someone and they're advocating something that's different than what the Bible says about nutrition, then you've got to really decide which one you're going to believe.
Because, you know, truth is truth.
It never changes.
You know, people say...
Truth is relative.
No, it isn't.
The times are relative, but truth is not relative.
How many times did we hear that the fried food industry of the past would say, uh-oh, they're saying vegetable oil is better than beef fat, and so they changed their fryers to vegetable oil from beef fat, and they really made a negative turn for the health of America, and there's been so many examples of that.
Yeah.
So what I'm saying here is that right now you have to be blind to not see the anarchy in our streets.
It's really what I call manufactured anarchy.
There are forces that want to manufacture anarchy until anarchy becomes the reality.
And there has been many forces in history that would, over time, create an environment that became the environment.
And so that's what they're trying to do.
But we are going to go opposite of that.
You know, as you learned from Fred, is that the expiration date of nations, of superpowers, is, you know, pretty finite.
38 years or whatever that number is, really close to that, is the average lifespan of all superpowers in recorded history in 5,000 years.
And so when you think about America at 244 years, you know, technically we're at our expiration date.
And we say, okay, well, you know, that's pretty simplified.
Yes, it may be overly simplified, but you have to look at where we are.
And so in cultures, as you learned with your discussion with Fred, is that, you know, cultures have cycles, right?
All cultures have cycles.
We run through the beginning phase and we run through the awakening phase.
And in this particular cycle we're in, the awakening phase of culture doesn't just mean the church awakening or the spiritual awakening.
It means the secular awakening as well.
So the great awakenings in history happened during the awakening phase of culture.
And so that's a natural 25-year piece of the culture.
And in our case, it was in the late 60s and 70s, and we had two awakenings.
We had the Jesus people, which was a technical great awakening.
It didn't quite make it to that point.
And it was a great spiritual awakening in America, but even greater awakening was the anything goes, free sex, all that sort of thing of the 60s, 70s, and even 80s.
And that actually was the predominant awakening in America at that time.
So the cycles continue, and then you go into the crisis cycle, which is the last cycle.
And then hopefully, if your awakening cycle was strong enough towards the spiritual side, then when you reach the crisis cycle at the end, you don't just fall off a cliff and end, but you actually go back around to the beginning and go again.
So like Rome, I think, had 12 of these cycles, almost 11 of these cycles, almost 1,200 years.
But then when you reach what's called the high decadence cycle, We're good to
go.
Here's the thing.
This is the point.
And a lot of Christians are about, oh, just repent and everything will be fine.
And yes, that will be fine with you, and you will go to heaven, but that doesn't save the country, and that is not a promise to save the country.
There is a promise that says, if you repent and turn from your wicked ways, the Lord will heal the land.
There's two scriptures that actually say that, and that's the promise on which we are working.
But the point that I want to make is there's a difference in saving the nation and saving the people.
We need to save all people, and people are going to go to heaven.
But what happens if we don't save the nation?
And that is where we are today.
If we don't save America, then in all of history, and we have this actually in a, and I don't know if you've seen this, Micronaut, but I'm going to show it to you.
It's a computer software that starts from zero, okay, and it goes year one, two, three, four, five, and it goes through the whole 2,000 years of Christianity, or 2020, right?
And so you see when you have a civilization that is the sole power in the world, like America, like Rome, like other countries in the past, right?
While the sole power is in power, even if they're not a major force for good, there generally is peace in the world and no world war.
And so then during this superpower, though, the gospel of Christ, in other words, when you go out and preach the gospel and teach people about how to live a good life and love your neighbor and all those things, the gospel expands.
And this map is so amazing because you see, as the years go, you see the gospel expand, contract, expand, contract, expand.
Every time there's a superpower in power, the gospel expands in quite dramatically.
When the superpower ends, right now there's a plan amongst multiple nations to take America down as the superpower.
So when a superpower falls and a multicultural or multi-power world comes up, it's a unipolar or multipolar.
So a multi-polar power system in the world, that's when you always have world war.
Incredible religious persecution.
It's like nothing else.
When you'll have a superpower, religious persecution is at its lowest, and when you have a multipolar power, persecution is at its highest.
So let's just say America ends, and right now, culturalists believe that we're within five or eight years of the end of the superpower status.
Now, remember Russia?
Cultures fall in a moment.
It isn't like, oh, you know, you're going to fade away and eventually you'll be gone.
No, no, no.
This is like the power's on, the lights are on.
You talk about this and some of the other things about being prepared.
Even storm preparation and economic collapse preparation.
All these things matter.
And so people are like, everything's great one day and then they open the door the next day and like nothing's great.
And then people are trying to take over, and they've got guns in the street and all kinds of stuff going on, fighting for food and hyperinflation.
I mean, how many times has hyperinflation happened in the world?
The Weimar Republic, you know about that.
I mean, they literally would have to pay the people three times or four times a day so they can buy bread in the morning, because when they go at noon, it's twice as expensive, and they go in the afternoon, it's three times as expensive.
So they have to get paid multiple times a day just to buy the basic essentials.
So all this prepping thing is not a wild story.
This has happened so many times throughout the world.
I remember being in Ecuador when they were having their hyperinflation and also in Argentina.
I mean, it's crazy.
Literally, people will take their money like crazy and rush to the dollar and buy dollars because as soon as they get paid in their currency, by the time they get to buy dollars, they've already devalued so much that it's a spiral.
And so I learned a lot of things about what has to happen.
So the point is, America is in trouble unless something major happens.
Okay?
You had a question?
Yeah, Casey.
What I really wanted to ask you about this is what are...
What is the evidence right now or the signs of America's decline?
And I covered some of this with Fred Markert.
You know, he talked about transgenderism is usually one of the last signs of the decadence phase of the decline.
But what else are you seeing across America today that raises red flags in your mind that, you know, Christianity is under attack and so on.
What do you see?
Well, look across the culture.
You talked about the book Sexual Persona.
The woman who wrote that is a very respected college professor on the subject.
She is an atheist A lesbian, you know, basically someone you would never think would say something like you said.
And she's self-proclaimed.
I'm not labeling her.
She's self-proclaimed.
And she recognizes that the last sign before end of the culture is public acceptance of transgenderism.
You would think it might be other things, the public acceptance of transgenderism.
You've just seen that in Supreme Court.
This is a major thing.
Again, there's no doubt, no one argues that we're in high decadence in the late crisis period.
They don't argue against that.
So if that's true, that means that the end is in our vision.
Okay, so if you don't believe that, and I hear a lot of people, you know, they don't want to invest in turning the culture around, I say, well, I don't know what assets you think you're going to have when you have a national collapse and you have all these other nations take over and your assets go to nothing.
I mean, government steals assets.
It's happened before in America.
You remember when they took their $20 gold pieces that were worth hundreds of dollars apiece and gave them $20 apiece for the gold pieces because that was a U.S. currency?
They had taxes at 90% in the past in America.
These property taxes, they're really lethal because they literally can raise your property taxes to the point where you can't afford your property and they take your property.
There's so many ways government can do this.
I believe that the power of God is the only hope here.
So when you look around you and you see the hate that is around us and the intentional hurting people and stealing from people and all the things that go on in America, this is not America.
So we have to change it back.
And so the God, one nation under God, one advantage we have and one advantage we believe we can do is that America was founded by its people, for its people, under the Word of God.
And we also have people now, I'm seeing people, We're good to go.
And that is very interesting that even people that don't believe recognize that morality is one of the incredible important things about America.
So here's another thing God is not smiling on, that we are exporting unrighteousness.
The Bible says righteousness exalts a nation.
So when you look at the movies and the people coming from around the world and going to our universities and taking home filth and indoctrination and all these things, so what we are exporting is against God, and so God cannot allow that to continue.
So there has to be a major change, and I'm a part of an organization of believers who are trying to change the nation with influence.
And so there's seven mountains of culture and the church mountain and the family mountain and the government mountain and the arts and entertainment and culture, I mean, media and government and family.
So there's seven mountains.
And that is actually biblical, that there are seven mountains.
The Lord talks about in Micah being the mountain of the Lord is above all the mountains.
So when you just refer to the mountains, it's just not a theology, but it is a way to slice the culture in a way that you can actually understand it.
Many people have tried to go to Hollywood with their billions and change Hollywood.
So you have this mountain standing, they bring their billions, they lose their billions, and they leave with their tail tucked between their legs.
Why?
Why?
Because the culture is established.
The leaders of the culture.
So the only way to take a mountain is to have, yes, you have top-down, you have a leader in the mountain, a leader group, but you also have bottom-up the people and inside-out.
So the plan has to be developed within the mountain of how they're going to take that mountain, and then outside the mountain you can help fund what they're doing from in the mountain.
This is really Saul Alinsky when you think about it.
This is the way communism is spread everywhere.
This is the way that even the homosexual agenda was spread in a way that was very methodical and very brilliant, frankly.
They started with a premise.
They said that we're going to change the culture from a moral issue into a cultural issue.
So we're no longer going to focus on moral.
We're going to focus on culture.
And so when they did that, they had a methodical plan in all seven mountains.
They put their people in all the movie industry.
They put them in all the schools for writing scripts.
They're everywhere.
In less than 1% of the population, they were able to change all seven mountains to where it's now an accepted thing in all TV, in all radio, and so on.
Well, and with transgenderism, it's even less than 1% of the population.
Oh, transgenderism.
No, I mean...
Homosexuality, by all accounts, is somewhere in the 2.5% or 3% range.
Transgenderism is a fractional, fractional, fractional, fractional of all of that.
That's really the point, though, is that they're trying now to make that a common thing, just a cultural thing.
It's no longer a morality thing.
It's like, you know, story time for your kids and all this sort of thing.
So it's trying to change the way we think.
We all know innately, you know, what's good and what isn't good and how we should be treating our neighbors and all that sort of thing.
And so we can't be continuing to export unrighteousness is what I'm saying.
So we're going to get back to family.
Go ahead.
But let me interject here how all of this has been framed by the cultural advocates of the left, because they say that that all of this is progress, that this is advancement in the name of.
well, love, right?
They even say that they advocate man-child love pedophilia.
And they say that you have to tolerate, that you have to accept that because that's inclusiveness.
And they say that why shouldn't love be a choice?
And they would say that people like you are trying to take society back to old days or older times that are no longer relevant.
What do you say to that kind of push?
Because that's what's been pushed, and it's not just in America, as you know.
I mean, transgenderism and homosexuality and gay marriage is pushed, I mean, even in Taiwan, it's in Latin America, it's all across Europe, it's everywhere around the world.
It's a global plan.
See, the thing is that we love the sinner and hate the sin.
That's what you have to do.
And so when you talk about, you know, that's a great question.
People are saying, I'm trying to take it back.
No.
There's one subject that Jesus said when he was asked, what is the greatest commandment of all?
And his statement is so profound that it's incredible.
He says, love the Lord your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength.
That is the greatest commandment of all.
And, he goes, and love your neighbor as yourself.
You see, the word love is thrown around.
I love pizza.
I love this.
I love that.
It's not love.
Love does not hurt anyone.
So if you're in a relationship and you tell me that pedophilia is not hurting anyone, I'm sorry.
I mean, no one buys that.
So ultimately, if you are loving your neighbor, then your neighbor is not going to be hurt by it.
Well, but let me explore this a little more philosophically with you on a similar topic.
We've seen all of this looting by these radical leftists across America, and then over the weekend, NPR pushing a book, I forgot the author's name, I think it's called In Defense of Looting, and it says that looting is freedom.
Because looting redistributes assets that are bad for people to claim as private property because the whole concept of private property, according to the left, is racist itself.
And so no one should own anything.
And love is looting.
And so this is the left.
Pedophilia is love.
Looting is love.
Destruction is love.
This is how they frame everything.
It's always about love and rainbows.
Do you know the story of Edward Bernays?
Yeah, right.
So most people don't know.
So the father of psychology, Sigmund Freud, was his uncle.
And Sigmund Freud was the guy who came up with the propaganda concept that Hitler was such a fan of.
He loved Sigmund Freud, and you drink your living fuel.
Yeah.
No, he loves Simeon Freud, and that is what was the propaganda that destroyed the Jews in Germany.
And so when you think about that, Edward Bernays, he came to America, and he started the modern practice of PR, public relations.
That's right.
So his first task was to make bacon and eggs the breakfast of America, which he solidly did.
So there is science behind saying the same thing every day, regardless of what the facts have to say.
And over time, that's Saul Alinsky all the way, too.
Over time, people start to change their opinion and that sort of thing.
Right, and didn't he work for the tobacco industry after that?
Tobacco industry, yes he did.
And the tobacco industry people then became the GMO glyphosate people later on.
It was the same exact people that were then pushing GMOs.
Yes, and so all these people that you're talking about and all these things are producing harm, producing harm.
Pain to their neighbor, causing people to go off track of their destiny, all kinds of things.
And then, obviously, people want to be in groups that support what they do.
If they're in a group doing something bad, you have all these groups out there.
The gang mentality or people that come together as a homosexual group or a transgender group or a pedophilia group.
You know, the average person, you really can't tell a kindergartner this and have them believe it.
You know what I'm saying?
The average person knows what's good and what's not.
And so when you talk about things like this, the point is, nobody watching right now doesn't believe that there's a major problem in America and that the culture is about to collapse.
Yeah, absolutely.
There's no question about that.
What I mean is, when we're trying to appeal to Americans today to say, you know, we need an awakening, we need a return to God, we need a revival, First, we have to explain to them why the path we're on leads to destruction.
And that alone is something that most people deny.
They think this is fine.
They think when Barack Obama lit up the White House in celebration of gay marriage, or when New York City lit up that building in pink lights to celebrate the mass murder of babies after they were born, the average American, for some reason, thinks that's great.
They're insane, but...
Until we convince them otherwise, they're going to believe that.
I have a hard time believing that's the average American.
I really do.
Because I talk to a lot of people.
I minister to a lot of people.
I minister to a lot of people who are gay.
I haven't met a person, when they really get down and honest with you, that wishes that they could stay like they are.
They're in such bondage.
They're in such even a psycho-emotional locked in to what they're doing and their lifestyle is locked in and their connections are locked in.
I mean, I know a lot of them that want out and I'm seeing many that to get out.
I'm not judging that.
You know, I judge things versed on the actual actions, versed on what does the Bible say versus what I'm seeing, because it says we're supposed to judge the fruit.
But the people, God loves all those people, and He cares about all those people.
When they actually realize that God loves them, they want God more than they want their actions, you know?
And I've seen that so many times.
I'm not moved by the propaganda that these people have been sold over and over and over and over again.
And so a person in a university is so brainwashed, they'll say things like you said right there.
But when you get down to talking to those people and they're honest and you ask them to back up what they're saying and tell us what it's based on, whatever, it really is a pretty shallow conversation.
I mean, it really is.
The depth behind their, quote, propagandized opinion is pretty shallow.
Yeah, and I don't mean, I'm not trying to get into a debate with you at all.
It's just that, you know, in my job, I am forced to read so much news every day, and I see these cultural arguments by leftists that are so irrational and rooted, frankly, I say in demonism, they're rooted in extreme evil.
I think some of these left-wing leaders are demon-possessed individuals, frankly, literally.
I don't even mean that as a metaphor.
But it's very compelling because, you know, Satanism, for example, is promoted under the idea of freedom, liberty.
That if you worship Satan, they tell children and teens, if you worship Satan, you have no rules.
No rules whatsoever.
You can go out onto the streets.
You can burn down cities.
You can seize cities now, and the Democrat mayors will let you.
And the police will flee.
And this is what they're actually experiencing.
So they're being taught that destruction and Satanism is freedom.
Yes, you're exactly right, but they're being taught.
They're being brainwashed.
This is really a sad thing because people don't get taught critical thinking.
I think you mentioned that many times.
They don't look at the logic.
Logic is simply a bridge from a premise to a conclusion.
And so the premise is skewed so badly.
In fact, it's almost an imaginary premise.
They just imagine the premise, and from that imagined premise, they put a bridge, which they call logic, to come to their conclusions.
And so if you can ever get with them and not talk about the premise, it gets to be a...
Pretty fascinating thing how they could actually change.
Now, they're not going to do that in front of their friends, but if you can actually show them that you care for them and that you're not against them individually, you just want truth because the Word says that you shall know the truth and the truth will make you free.
So it's knowing truth that makes you free.
So if what I'm saying is not truth, you can call me and say, KC, I don't think that's right.
Can you tell me?
We'll have a conversation that ultimately will agree on whether it's truth or not.
And so that's why we have to be able to have these discussions because there's a lot of good people out there.
They didn't take the time to learn anything.
They just basically take what they heard and then they parrot it and then they're part of this agreement group and that's what they do.
Yeah, that's true.
I mean, you just described sheeple.
Yeah, that's right.
That does seem to be the media-manipulated masses.
All right, next question.
In your opinion, is America ready for a revival?
Have people had enough of the destruction and the evil?
Is there a readiness out there for people to turn to God at this point?
Or do more bad things need to happen to them before they realize that we need to change course?
You know, I would say that there's revivals already happening out here.
See, what we need is an awakening in the church.
Okay, I just did a pandemic town hall on Friday for that purpose, and I'll talk about that more, but awakening in the church, and once the church awakens, they say, oh my gosh, we have been too seeker-friendly.
We haven't been saying the truth because we're afraid what people will leave or not be interested.
And then people are not prepared, and therefore they are in trouble because we haven't taught them biblical worldview and all these things.
And so we need an awakening in the church, so the church will awaken their people, and then the revival will spill over to America.
So the answer to your question, you can't just go right to someone in total sin who's been indoctrinated into that sin and say, you know, it's time for revival.
Although I can say, I was writing a...
A spiritual son of mine that I was riding in Europe and Ubers with him, and he would always say, you know, do you know Jesus loves you?
And most of them are not interested.
I was about to say to him, you know, that approach really doesn't work.
I was going to tell him that, and then we got in like the fourth Uber, and he says it to this Indian guy, and the Indian guy goes, could you tell me about this Jesus?
And I thought, oh my gosh.
Okay, so different things work for different people.
There's street preachers out there screaming that you're going to go to hell if you don't do this or that.
And I always thought, there's nobody getting saved by that.
But I'm now seeing so many people get saved that way that it's not a recipe, you know?
It's not a recipe.
People are not happy in their lives.
They're pretending to be happy in their lives.
And the only way that we're going to get happy in our lives is if we are in order.
In line with the Creator Himself and doing things that are positive because people say, do you believe in karma?
Oh yeah, I believe in karma.
As you sow, so also shall you reap.
It's just that simple.
And people are sowing negative seeds everywhere and somehow wondering why they don't have positive seeds coming back to them.
Yeah, exactly.
Well said.
Okay, next question for you.
If America accepts this premise and enough people begin to beg for forgiveness for the sins of our nation, of which there are many, especially since Roe vs.
Wade, but what does revival look like, in your opinion?
I mean, what should we be doing or seeing?
What do the streets of America look like if enough Americans are begging for forgiveness?
You know, that's a great question.
And what's so cool about this, when you look at the examples in the past, you look at the homosexual agenda and how it was literally much less than 1% of the population working towards that agenda, much less.
And yet they've accomplished what they've accomplished.
It's really remarkable.
Now look at Iran.
There's only a certain small percentage of the people of the Iranian leadership.
The actual young people in Iran, they're completely against all of that, but they're still completely under the control of a very small percentage.
Look at in Germany.
You had all these millions of Jews just getting on the train and going where they sat.
You see what I'm saying?
So it doesn't take a lot.
In fact, the Christians that already exist, and that's one thing we're doing, that's one thing we're doing.
We're finding out who our brothers are, and we're coming together.
We say, listen, we want to show America the love of God.
We want to follow that.
You shall know the love of God that surpasses knowledge and be filled to all the fullness of God.
So what do we got to do?
We got to change it up.
Because, see, even in the church, when Martin Luther nailed the thesis on the door of the Catholic Church saying, you guys are doing it wrong, you guys are hurting people, you guys are corrupt, when they pulled out and Protestantism took over the world, which is mostly a good thing, they ran from some theologies that were literally they ran from some theologies that were literally valuable and from God himself.
These theologies were at work in the Acts church when the word was spread all around the world.
Remember, in Acts, there were 120 people in the upper room when the Holy Spirit came upon them, and those 120 people changed the world.
So when you think about, it doesn't take a majority to do this at all.
I mean, when people say, I mean, the word says, you shall know the love of God that surpasses knowledge.
That means you're going to know something that goes beyond knowledge.
And then you will be filled to all the fullness of Christ.
See, this is so important when you realize that we are not fighting people.
We're not fighting people.
We're saying we want God's best for you, whatever that is.
You know, we want God's best for you.
They say, well, we want money.
The Bible talks about money more than just about anything else.
There's a lot of stuff in there about sowing and reaping and how you have to be a good steward before you get more.
There's all kinds of principles in there that no one was ever taught in America, hardly ever taught.
There's so many things that we're coming at that we believe when people see their fellows, friends' lives changing, people are depressed in this country.
Depression is rampant.
Suicide is rampant.
That is because their life has no purpose and no meaning and no connection with the Lord.
And so when you think about that, oh, my goodness, that there's actually something here for me, and they can literally feel the tangible love of God through their neighbor.
You know, so like one of the theologies I'm talking about is that in the church, the church in the church that a single mom would not go to the church hungry, praise the Lord for church and go home hungry.
It wouldn't happen.
They would say, how are you today?
Do you have food?
What are your needs?
And they would take care of those needs.
And that was a hallmark of the first century church.
And beyond that, there's the people outside the church.
There's a lot of homeless people, a lot of people who don't know God, but who have needs.
And we need to work as much as we can to fix those needs, to heal those needs.
How about when you're like at a restaurant and the waitress comes up and she's dealing with you for an hour and a half interaction and you leave not knowing anything more about her than when you got to the restaurant?
You know, you have your own life and your own thinking, your own people you're talking about, but people have problems that sometimes you can solve with a word of encouragement.
I have literally written a note on a, give a tip and you write a note to them, and a year later I'd see them as, you have no idea where I was when I read that.
And it literally changed my mind.
I really realized that I'm not alone in this world.
So little things like that.
So there's a lot of things.
If we get the hundred million Christians who call themselves serious Christians in America together, which is what we're doing, and we start showing the love of God to everybody, and this is not a game, and we're not fighting you.
Now, if you're...
I mean, if you try to attack my family, you know, I'm a black belt, and I'm going to deal with that as a man because it's supposed to protect their family.
But right now, we're not coming to you to fight you.
We're not coming to you to get anything from you.
We're coming to you to show you love so that you can change the way you think of us because we care about you and your family and this country.
Well, this is a key boundary and threshold that has to be navigated carefully because there are plenty of Christians who used to be living in, let's say, Syria, who are now dead because a radical Islamic group came along and said, you know, if you don't convert to Islam, we're going to behead you.
And they did.
Christians are being slaughtered right now all over the world, and I know you know that.
You're very much aware of that.
But even on the streets of America, if you, let's say, if you were to approach a bunch of Antifa terrorists on the streets of Portland and say, you know, God loves you, God bless you, please come to Christ, they might just shoot you.
I'm not an advocate of that.
I think that's just, the Bible says, be wise as serpents and gentleness doves.
So how do we navigate this?
This is the question.
When do Christians have to defend themselves through lawful force versus when do Christians try to embrace and show love and awaken others?
The Bible talks about if you're going to take somebody's house, you've got to bind the strong man before you go in and you're going to get your...
Your butt beat and thrown outside, okay?
There are plenty of places where people have to be warriors, okay?
But we're not going looking for conflict with Antifa.
See, Antifa is not an idealistic organization that really cares about black people.
That's not true.
I mean, I have a black son.
I love black people.
See, it's not about black people.
I love people, and if they happen to be black, that's great.
But, you know, Antifa is part of a militant organization that's part of a wide network of people trying to cause anarchy in America.
And so that is a truth.
So if they try to attack me, an individual wearing a helmet and whatever else, I'm not going to run from them, and I'm not going to say, you know, Jesus loves you.
You know?
I mean, I care about them as humans, and I might have to You know, pray to raise them from sickness after they get taken out, just like you.
You're trained as well.
You know, you have to know and be discerning.
We're not going to go looking for conflict anywhere.
That's not our goal at all.
We're going to try throughout all the mountains to show love in the movies and love in the government and, you know, try to demonstrate.
There's one Catholic priest or Catholic bishop once said, go out and make disciples of all men and, if necessary, use words.
Okay?
Yes, yes.
It's not wise to go into conflict and expect people in anger to change based on something you're saying.
That's not wise.
Right, right.
But it is wise to defend yourself in a world of violent demons, that's for sure.
All right, next question.
And I hope you don't mind me really taking this conversation deeply here into asking about philosophy.
You know, people don't want just an easy conversation.
That's not even very interesting.
We want to explore the margins of what we believe here.
So here's a question for you.
It might be a tough question.
I'm not trying to put you in a difficult spot at all, however.
But we see a lot of churches today, organized popular churches, that seem to be going in favor of just what's popular.
They want to be popular with the young crowd.
Instead of sticking to Scripture and what the Bible says, How big of a problem is this where organized Christian churches are no longer teaching and following the Word of Christ?
You know, that is a massive problem.
There's a book in the Bible, one page, called Jude.
Just read it, okay?
Read the book of Jude.
It talks about apostasy.
That means that leaders don't believe what their organizations are supposed to believe.
And so when leaders start taking people away, the Bible is very clear.
It says in the last days, and most people would say these are the last days, the churches will show a form of godliness but not have power.
It's a form of godliness.
See, godliness or religion, by the way.
There's a song my son let me hear yesterday.
It's fantastic.
It says, you're not religious, Lord.
So there's some song about Jesus not being religious.
Jesus hated religion.
He called them whitewashed tombs and teachers of the law.
Okay, religion is not the answer.
That's what I'm trying to say.
He's a God of love, but not a God of religion.
So there's a lot of people out there doing religious things, but their hearts are far from God.
And so these churches, man, you know what?
One pastor told me about having a dream.
He says, He said, I went to dream.
I went to church, and I'm standing in line at the pearly gates, and Jesus was standing there at the top, and some lady was playing in the organ that I remembered from church years ago, and when the first guy comes up there, he's a guy I never heard of, didn't know his name.
He comes to Jesus, and Jesus turns his thumb like this, and the organist plays this beautiful music, and the guy gets sucked up to heaven.
And he said, the next guy comes, the next guy, and then a famous minister comes up there, and he goes like this, and he plays this real...
Raunchy music, and he gets sucked down to hell.
He says by the time he got to the front of the line, he didn't know if he was saved, you know?
And he says that he stood there like just cold as can be.
He was very excited.
He was in the back of the line.
He got to the front of the line.
He wasn't excited anymore.
And Jesus looked him in the face and says, go back and get it right.
And that changed his life.
And so the scariest words in the entire Bible are, Lord, didn't we do mighty miracles in your name?
And Jesus says, depart from me, I never knew you.
And so, see, the Word of God is about relationships.
Everyone talks about, you know, it's about having an insurance policy so you go to heaven.
That's part of it.
He came that you'd be saved, right?
But he says, why?
He says, so that you'll have everlasting life.
And that's John 3.16.
But if you go forward to John 17.3 and look at what Jesus says everlasting life is, it's fantastic.
He says, this is life.
Everlasting life or eternal life, some translations.
This is eternal life, that you may know the same know as Adam knew Eve and Mary had not yet known a man, that you may know the Father and His one and only Son, Jesus Christ.
You see?
So He came to For us to experience Him, not to go to a place where they went through religion and all kinds of things where the heart wasn't in it.
It's all about your heart being in it.
Because if you love the Lord, you're going to love your neighbor, you're going to love your wife, you're going to love your kids, you're going to love everybody else.
So ultimately, that's what we've got to get back to.
And I'm not trying to judge anybody for their religion because there's a lot of people in these religious churches who have a great heart for God.
You know, but you're talking about the seeker-friendly mass of churches that literally what they preach is opposite of what's in the Bible.
And that is going to be a really risky situation when they get to find out whether they're going up or down.
Well, and a lot of churches won't teach prophecy at all, even though that's a significant portion of the Bible.
They won't talk about the Book of Revelation or the Tribulation or any of these things.
Isn't that also really doing a disservice to their members who are not understanding that, by the way, this cycle ends.
You know, there is a final chapter to this that we are witnessing right now, and in the final days, we know who wins, and we know that it happens in an instant, in a breath, and we know that we are all judged based on our actions.
Without knowing that, how can people navigate this world lacking that knowledge?
Okay, that is a great question, but hold on.
Let's take this judge based on our actions, okay?
We're judged based on whether we made the decision to accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, and that He died for us and rose again for our sins, and that we have eternal relationship with Him.
Our actions, okay, if we have faith, we should have action, because faith without works is dead.
So we're being judged by our actions, but that judgment from our actions is about where our reward in heaven will be, not whether we're going to heaven or hell.
So I just want to point that out because that's an important piece.
Say the first part of that again because that was super important.
Well, it's just that without the teachings, Without the context of understanding that this cycle ends...
You said prophecy.
Yeah, prophecy.
How can people navigate this reality without understanding these teachings?
You can't listen.
If you don't have the Spirit and the Word, you're going to have limitations.
So prophecy is all throughout the Bible.
It's very interesting.
In Isaiah 53, it talks all about Jesus.
That by His stripes we are healed.
He suffered for us.
Our physical, spiritual, emotional healing.
It describes crucifixion 700 years before crucifixion ever existed.
It described Jesus on the cross and the purpose-wise on the cross.
Okay?
Well, you find that interesting.
then you'll find out there's over 300 prophecies, very specific prophecies about Jesus in the Old Testament, most of which have already been fulfilled, and several are in process of being fulfilled.
So that'd be like saying, hey, Mike, your name's going to be Mike before there ever was a name Mike, and you're going to be born in this particular place before that place ever existed, and every detail of your life, how tall you're going to be, how amazing you're going to be, all those sort of things.
And 295 more prophecies about you, okay?
So let's get interested in that, because even if you're not a believer, it's like, wow, this is crazy.
How in the world are things known 700 years before even the actual process they're talking about even existed?
You know, it's literally fantastic.
So prophecy is real, and the Bible says to seek prophecy.
So it is real.
And ultimately, the one thing I've found about this Great Awakening project is that part of what we're doing, this is the start of it, we've been working on it for several months, and it's about unity in the leadership of the body of Christ, and then leadership in the body of Christ, I'm sorry, unity in the body of Christ, and then unity across the nation.
You see, I talked about the people who see what we're talking about as true, who don't yet believe even in Jesus, but want to help because they know this is the thing that needs to happen.
Okay, so even in meetings we had all early on, we have 10 people in the meeting, then two people are sharply disagreeing, and I would say, guys, if we don't find unity and harmony and agreement and one accord at this level, how's it going to be when we've got millions of people, you know, trying to come together and have conflict?
So we have to fight for unity among the believers that believe differently.
I mean, as long as they're professing the truths of the Bible, how they practice their religion around that, we're not trying to change in any way.
We're trying to say, we love you, we believe as you do, come together because the country needs us right now, the world needs us right now.
Because guess what?
As America goes, so goes the world.
If America falls as a superpower, the persecution in the world will be dramatic.
Oh, that's true.
I'm...
I'm glad that you mentioned that, although not happy about the content of what you just said, because it's accurate.
There would be way too much human suffering.
But for those who are believers, who understand where we are in history and what's happening, what's coming...
In your opinion, what practical things should they be doing right now in order to prepare for the return of Christ and prepare for perhaps God's wrath to be unleashed on certain segments of the world or the country?
What should people be doing?
We're going to be putting together prayer teams of hundreds of millions of people praying in the same way.
So the Bible talks about when two or three are gathered together in the name of Jesus, that the Lord is in the midst to bring what they agree to pass.
So when you're talking about if we agree that America is going to be a shining light on the hill for all others to see and that righteousness is going to exalt this nation and that we're going to repent of our evil ways and turn towards the will and the power of God, then if millions of people agree, let's just say it's the 100 million people that we've identified as Christians in America.
And these people are going to be receiving prayer directive on a regular basis.
On this day, we're all praying for this.
The power of that is extraordinary.
I know Fred Markert did this 10-year thing.
He was involved as a leader in that, called AD 2000, and from 1990 to 2000, a 10-year period.
When they only had email towards the end, or middle to the end, they had several hundred million people praying.
Okay?
And when people pray, things change.
The Revelation talks about bowls of prayers, you know, up there from your forefathers and so on, that people praying righteous prayers in agreement can change the entire universe.
So we all need to pray.
We all need to get involved.
Find the Great Awakening Project near you.
Find where you fit.
Get involved.
And you will see the world change.
We're completely believing that this shall come to pass because America should be and is at its root a force for righteousness in the world and that we need to be exporting righteousness and lifting up our people and helping our neighbors and all that sort of thing.
You talked about earlier two things.
You said something about redistribution of wealth.
People try to look at the Bible and say that's the way it is.
No.
I mean, there's rich people in the Bible.
Solomon was the richest person in the history of the world.
It's really about what you do with your money.
I mean, even in 2 Corinthians, it talks about my God shall supply all sufficiency so that you may be able to give to every good work.
You know, if you have enough money to give to every good work, you're pretty well off.
So that doesn't mean you should be poor.
If all the rich, righteous people gave their money away, there wouldn't be any money left to support all the causes that need to be caused.
In fact, Jesus said the poor will always be with you.
So we need to take care of those people to the extent that we can, and we need to show people we love them.
Whether or not they've found a way to find the Lord, we still love them and we still need to help them.
And that's part of what we need to do.
Another thing you said, I think it deserves to point out, why do churches not teach revelation?
Because in order to teach revelation, you must have revelation.
And what I'm saying about that, the revelation is so deep and so confusing that if you listen to the three groups, the pre-millennials, which say that the rapture is going to happen at the beginning and all the Christians are going to be out and then things are going to go haywire, or the all-millennials that say, no, it's going to happen in the middle, you're going to have three and a half years of tribulation after, or the people that say post-millennials that say afterwards that people are going to get raptured out and we have to be involved in the whole thing.
So when you look at all of that, They all have compelling arguments, and then some will have compelling arguments why the other ones aren't right.
I have it simple.
I have it down to a couple of sentences, okay?
Jesus is coming back.
There will be a major war.
He will win, and if you're on His side, you're going to be fine.
Okay?
That is revelation for you.
So be ready now, okay?
Because the downside, I remember when I was 18 years old and I was a mechanic at a gas station, the owner of the gas station was such a nice man, Dr.
R.L. Yeomans is his name, and he said to me one day, he says, Live the Christian life.
Do what the Bible says.
Even if you don't believe in the Lord, the world will be a better place.
And that really stuck with me all these years thinking, oh my gosh, but I have learned that there is power in the name of Jesus.
I have learned that a little boy drowned in my pool.
I've told you this story, Mike.
He drowned in my pool.
And we pulled him out.
He was a six-year-old kid.
We pulled him out, and he was completely gray, and it was ugly looking.
And I remember my son, Joshua, eight years old, swam to the bottom of the pool and grabbed his wrist and pulled him up.
And then they handed him to me, and I took him to the backyard, and I just kept the life of Jesus Christ, because the Word says that He came, that we have life.
And have it to the full.
So we think about the fullness of life.
So I'm just declaring life every time I popped his chest.
The life of Jesus Christ.
Nothing happened.
My wife would walk around us praying in the spirit.
The kid's mom was standing there looking down saying, I just was praising.
I was frozen, but I was praising God somebody knew how to pray.
Nothing was happening.
I'm looking at a dead kid.
I keep going.
The life of Jesus Christ.
And then all of a sudden, after forever, the kid sits up and starts talking to us like nothing ever happened.
Now I'm going, oh my goodness, this is literally the most amazing thing I've ever seen.
The police come up, the paramedics come up, and they say, sir, we've had five cases like that this year, four dead and one brain dead.
This kid was on the bottom of your pool, 10-foot pool, for an unknown amount of time.
His lungs were going to be full of water.
He could still drown, and he's going to have brain damage.
And so we've got to get him to the hospital.
So we took him to Arnold Palmer.
The next morning would have been the kid's seventh birthday and it was his seventh birthday and they checked him out every way from Sunday and released him with a clean bill of health and he never had another problem.
And so what I'm saying is all things are truly possible with God.
And so I don't have the power to do that.
And I get a phone call every few months from this mom and from this kid.
The mom tells me, you know, things have been really tough, but every time I think about the tough times, I think about that moment when I'm standing down frozen and my kid rises.
And the kid, a funny story the next day, they said, so what did you do this weekend?
He says, I died and God brought me back.
That's what I told his kids at school.
So what I'm saying is that this is not Hocus Pocus.
I've seen this.
I've seen people healed of cancer.
I mean, God is the only answer, and everyone in their deepest place knows there's something more than me.
There's something more than me.
I think that's...
That's a very inspiring story and also right on the mark here because God can alter our reality, but I think God won't do so unless we ask Him to, right?
I mean, that's the whole point of prayer and group prayer invokes that.
I don't mean to be down throughout this interview because the message of hope here at the end is no matter how dark our society becomes, no matter how lost it seems, it can change in an instant, just like the way that God brought that boy back to life.
But we have to ask for God's help in order to make that change happen.
And that's what this Great Awakening Project is all about.
And when you say ask, what does the Bible say?
The Bible says that when you say to the mountain, throw yourself in the sea and shall not doubt in your heart and believe in what you said is going to pass, you will have exactly what you said.
But then an important scripture comes after that.
And this is missed by so many people.
It says that when you pray, believe that you receive and you will have.
There's the key to it folks.
Don't be praying hope so maybe so prayers.
Don't be saying God if it be thy will.
God's saying go back and find out if it's my will and then pray it again.
Because you pray with faith and things happen.
That's why I so totally believe that we get enough of us together.
Enough of us together believing for this nation.
Believing for you.
Believing for you people who don't believe and don't care.
We believe and we care enough for you.
And if we come together and believe, and we've already seen now that it's only going to take a small percentage of America to pull this off.
And we've got a bigger percentage than people think we have.
And so we are going to fight for this nation.
No, not fight for our selfish needs.
Not fight for us.
We're fighting for the unity of America.
We're fighting for the shining light on the hill to continue to shine for future generations.
And all those end up coming to us.
Well said, and I would add to that, I think one person of faith has more power to shape reality than 100,000 non-believers, or maybe a million.
Wow.
Just one person of faith.
So glad you said that, because, you know, when Sodom and Gomorrah was under threat of destruction from God, I mean, he was asked multiple times, but Lord, what if there's 50 righteous people?
And he said, I'll save it.
And they checked.
There's not 50 righteous.
What if there's 40?
What if there's 30?
What if there's one?
He will save a nation for one righteous, okay?
But for a while.
But then he'll tell you to get out while I'm going to blow it up, you know?
So the point is, the other thing that you said that was so powerful, I wanted to say that Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego refused to bow down and worship an idol.
And so they said, if you don't, we're going to throw you in the fire.
And they've made the fire hotter than it's ever been to the point where it killed the people After they threw them in the fire.
So they threw them in the fire, and they came out without even the smell of fire on them completely well.
So if you just be faithful and do as the Lord leads you, that even if it appears like the end, because he says he leads you through the valley of the shadow of death, not to the valley of the shadow of death.
In fact, there's another scripture that says, even in the valley there springs a blessing.
It says, look up thine eyes to the hill from whence thy blessing come, which is Jesus himself.
See, no, we're not defeated.
All things are possible through Christ to strengthen us.
That's why we're coming together as a force for good in the world, in this nation.
First is, save the nation of America.
Secondly, allow that to spill over and change the world.
Amen to that.
I love the way you just explained that.
Well, look, I'm really anticipating this project being launched.
I hope your timetable is moving forward.
I know a lot of people are going to be interested in this, but until then, we can read the Bible, we can pray, we can do all these things that you're talking about right now, right?
We don't have to wait for anything.
But when you do have that, it will help us maybe connect with others who are doing the same thing.
That's the beauty of it.
Well, I want to mention that what you said is important anyway, because number one of the things that are required for this is individual repentance and getting right with God.
You say that if I repent of my sins, you're faithful just to forgive me.
Then you repent.
That means you turn away from it and you do something different.
See, that's required in anything we do, any way.
This is the number one part of the process.
There's an event going on in Washington, D.C. on September 26th that is called The Return.
You can look it up at thereturn.org.
The Return, where they're going to expect 250,000 people to come and repent on behalf of themselves and the nation, which is the number one piece of this whole puzzle that we're putting together.
So we believe that this is going to happen.
We believe the right people are going to come.
And like you said, pray that God will intervene in this nation and save this nation.
And here's the point I want to make, is if America fails in the next five or ten years, then persecution happens, and in the cultural cycles, what happens is that the superpower goes away, and then there's maybe a hundred years before another superpower rises, okay, and And then the gospel will contract for that entire time.
So during the contraction, so many people are going to die and be persecuted.
And then when the superpower rises again, it starts all over again towards the Great Commission.
And so you don't want to have that gap in the middle if you can help it.
If you can save this nation for righteousness, then we can help save the world in the process.
Well said.
Well said.
Amen to that.
Well, Casey, thank you so much for joining us today.
It's really been a fascinating conversation.
And I hope you'll come back, especially when this project launches.
And the next few months, of course, are going to be, well, let's say it will give us a lot more information about where things are in terms of the book of Revelation.
Can I say one more thing?
Absolutely.
Because I don't want to say it hasn't launched.
I want to say the public doesn't know about what's happening.
We've already launched racial reconciliation.
We've already launched national prayer.
We've already launched a lot of things that are in process as we speak and that we're going to see the fruits of that before we even get to our national conference.
It's going to be in January or February for the entire thing when we bring it all together.
Yes, you're going to see a website soon.
It will be thegreatawakeningproject.org.
And a lot of people out there are using awakening to mean so many things differently than what it should be meaning.
So thegreatawakeningproject.org is us.
You'll see it up there soon, and you'll see that the things that we've already done are pretty extraordinary.
This week, And that's why I've been in Dallas all week.
This week, we had the first meeting of the leadership of the Great Awakening Project, even in the midst of COVID, a hurricane and a big storm at the same time, and anarchy everywhere.
We still had people that are among the highest in their mountain that exists come to meet with us for two days in Dallas.
And it was literally extraordinary.
Everyone is extremely encouraged and that the Lord will prevail here and America shall rise to its place where it should be, its proper status and righteousness.
Well, please encourage everyone involved in the project to feel free to use brighteon.com as a platform to share prayers and videos and lessons, anything that can benefit people.
We're working hard to provide this voice, this platform for people like you.
And your organization there.
And there are a lot of pastors who are using the platform right now.
People get censored on YouTube just for quoting scripture now.
It's out of control.
So that's why we've got to have these alternative pro-Christian platforms available.
But again, Casey, it's been an honor speaking with you today.
I want to thank you for joining me.
Well, Mike, I say God bless you, and I just pray protection over you and your wife, because the things you're doing are poking the devil right in the eye.
And I just pray that you continue to expand and grow, and your voice grows across the nation and the world, and that people know where you stand.
Well, thank you.
Blessings to you and your family as well, Casey.
And folks, check out his company, livingfuel.com, for his nutritional superfood solutions for humanity.
And look for The Great Awakening Project to launch in the months ahead.
Share this video everywhere that you can.
You might get banned for doing so because, of course, it's a video that's honoring Christ.
So there you go.
These are the times in which we live.
But thank you for watching.
This is Mike Adams here, the founder of Brighttown.com, joined today by Casey Krejci from livingfuel.com.
Thank you for watching.
Love you, brother.
brother.
God bless you.
A global reset is coming.
And that's why I've recorded a new nine-hour audiobook.
It's called The Global Reset Survival Guide.
You can download it for free by subscribing to the naturalnews.com email newsletter, which is also free.
I'll describe how the monetary system fails.
I also cover emergency medicine and first aid and what to buy to help you avoid infections.
