In the Trenches with Teddy Daniels you you you you you Hello and welcome to In the Trenches with Teddy Daniels.
And again today for Teddy, I'm Frankie Stocks, reporter with National File.
I hope everyone had a good weekend.
We've got a great Monday show set up for you.
I'm going to be interviewing John Dislin.
This is a really interesting guy.
He's the author of the book, Nehemiah Strong.
He's got a great background, a great resume.
I think you guys are really going to enjoy this interview.
Enjoy hearing from John.
This is a guy who was on the ground On the front lines of this spiritual war, of this culture war, and he's really approaching this from all sides.
He's looking at, we're going to strengthen our young men, we're going to strengthen our young believers all over the world, especially here in the United States.
He's put together a great book.
I'm really excited to get him in here to talk about it.
These are issues that we talk about a lot on this show that we've been talking about a lot the past couple of weeks.
just this battle of good versus evil, this battle that's being waged right in our faces every single day.
Every single one of us is on the front lines fighting this battle.
And guys like John, you know, who have put together a wonderful guide, a wonderful, wonderful book, just all about how you can rise, you can be your strongest, you can prepare for this next stage in your life, this next stage in our collective lives, which we're really in right now. this next stage in our collective lives, which we're really And that is this spiritual battle that's being waged, waged in every way that we can imagine.
So without much further ado, I'm going to bring in John Dislin, and we're going to get this kicked off.
John, how's it going?
Welcome to In the Trenches.
Great, Frankie.
How are you, sir, this morning?
I'm doing great.
I really appreciate you joining me.
I'm excited about this interview and this episode of the show.
I think the viewers are going to get a lot out of it.
Thank you.
I'm looking forward to it, too.
Yes, sir.
So, John, if you want to just, you know, start by giving a little bit of background, kind of let everyone know who you are, where you're from, what you're, you know, just whatever they need to know about you.
The floor is yours.
Sure, thank you.
Well, You know, I'm nobody special.
You know, I grew up down here in the South and here in Tennessee, just kind of a regular growing up life.
And, you know, brother, sister, dad worked hard.
He was in the Air Force, but also worked...
Worked in research and just kind of a regular, you know, 1970s, 80s growing up, which is my era of growing up.
And I was fortunate enough to...
I'm pretty tall.
I'm taller than I look on screen.
And so...
I had an opportunity to play basketball, so that was kind of fun.
So I went to Virginia and played basketball.
And so that was a crazy experience for when you're, you know, 18, 19 years old.
But anyway, did that and studied finance.
And when I came out, was really driven, excited about the finance industry.
And back in that time, that was the age of Wall Street, you know, the Reagan years and Wall Street.
And that was the cool thing to do.
Without really knowing what I was getting into, I went off and did that.
So I actually spent about 20 years doing finance.
So mergers and acquisitions, private equity, venture lending, things like that.
And pretty exciting and really challenging, really fun.
Did about $7 billion in transactions and just, you know, had a lot of fun.
Then I went and started an internet company because that seemed like the thing to do.
And so for nearly a decade, I pioneered a Kind of a revolutionary approach to review content origination and reporting for the multifamily management industry for apartment complexes.
And did that for almost a decade.
Really exciting and challenging fun and had a lot of success.
Uh, and then around 2014 or so, uh, was, uh, nearing the point of, of exiting from that business.
And, uh, you know, a funny thing happened.
I was, I was, by accident, I was listening to this wild man named Alex Jones and, uh, And it was right before a sports program I would dial in to listen to and just catch the tail end of it, you know, and caught him talking about 9-11.
The first couple of times he said it's an inside job.
I just dismissed it.
Third time he said it, I thought, man, that's enough.
That's crazy.
I've got to go investigate that.
Well, a couple of days later...
My red pill process was in full ramp-up mode.
And for about the next year and a half, I basically spent that time staring into the abyss, like the blackness of it, and going down all these.
Because every rabbit hole I went down, I found half a dozen more, you know.
And I can be kind of OCD, so, you know, very kind of Thorough in taking things to ground.
And, you know, took 9-11 to ground.
Okay, you know, Alex was right, as the hashtag says.
And then the next one, the next one, the next one.
And about a year and a half of that, you know, I was basically...
I mean, I was...
I was...
Not too far from, like, losing my mind, okay?
It was the blackness and the darkness of the evil and kind of the waterfront of wickedness in the world.
You know, when you grow up in the 80s, it's like, you know, it's just, yeah, there's evil, but it's kind of a normal life.
Well, you know, when you steer into the abyss for a year and a half, you realize, you know, the The depth and the depravity of the evil in the world.
And of course, Jesus Christ said, you know, the whole world lies under the evil one.
We shouldn't be surprised, you know, when something that Jesus said turns out to be true.
So anyway, I'm on the ragged edge of, you know, my mind, you know, in this time frame.
And then I had this epiphany, you know, that really my whole life hinged on.
And it was that As black and as dark and as wicked as the evil is, if it was superior, if it was a superior force in the world, the world would look like Mars.
Because that's ultimately the goal of evil is to destroy everything, right?
I mean, there's nothing that it doesn't seek to destroy that's good and lovely and pure and wholesome.
And I knew from growing up and going to church growing up that, you know, I knew Jesus was real.
I just, you know, sin was fun, and it was fun to be a hypocrite and, you know, dress up nice, but, you know, have this, you know, other life in terms of just kind of me being on the throne of my own heart.
And...
And in that season, in that moment, I realized that it was time to get serious with Jesus, you know, because He had always been serious about me and for me.
And, you know, the sacrifice that He made individually for me was, you know, was everything.
It was the greatest moment in human history, right?
God sending His only Son.
To save a wretch like me, as the hymn goes.
So that's when I got serious with my faith, laid it down at the foot of the cross, and took my cross and followed Jesus.
And what was interesting, Frankie, was it's almost like in that moment, that's when I really started to live.
And so my first...
Foray, if you will, into being on that battlefield.
Because hopefully, Frankie, before the end of our visit together, we sharpen iron over the battle space we're in.
Because whether you acknowledge it or not, we're all in it.
We're all on the battlefield.
And so in this season, though, I got serious about being on the battlefield and I wanted a spot.
And so my first foray was into counter-abortion work.
So I spent a couple of years going after an abortion mill and the poor, you know, young, deluded women going in there to murder their babies and the poor workers who think it's, you know, it's all a joke, you know, with the Christians out on the sidewalk in front early in the morning.
So I did that, you know, for a couple of years and then segued into...
Running for several years with a gentleman named Russ Dizdar.
And Russ was a global leader in terms of spiritual warfare, counter human trafficking, and counter satanic ritual abuse.
And just a lovely man and just wonderful example of being a ferocious, you know, line of Judah, strong believer, but also, you know, having a loving heart toward our enemies because we were all Jesus enemies once.
Right.
When we were his enemies, when he died for us in our hearts, in our lives.
And so.
So ran with Russ for a couple of years, primarily, although he did things in his ministry like.
Dealing with demonically possessed people, you know, and engaging with demons and dealing with that whole thing, which is completely real.
And we can talk about that.
I didn't do really that with him, although I was around him a lot.
But what we did was confronting these folks who were trafficking these poor young women who were generationally trafficked in the Amish and Mennonite communities in Pennsylvania.
So did that for a season.
And then Well, God really stirred me up to write.
And it's kind of funny.
It just kind of came out of the blue.
I never grew up thinking, oh, I want to, you know, write or be a writer or whatever.
Well, you know, there's this lovely brother of mine, Magnum, gave me this plaque.
This plaque that's behind me is Proverbs 69.
It says, a man's heart plans his path, but the Lord directs his steps.
And thank God he does, right?
Because, you know, we followed our own path.
You know, we know where that'd wind up.
Know we're good.
So, anyway...
All of a sudden I started writing this stuff.
I wrote a descriptive summary of four days of weapons training with John Lovell of Warrior Poet Society.
I wrote a guide for running a really complex VHF UHF radio.
And then I wound up writing what wound up being a 70 page Book for my daughter for her birthday, kind of a fairytale story for her.
So I was all stirred up to write, didn't know what I was supposed to write.
And then one day I saw a video talking about people coming and knocking on the door and some basic things you could do to kind of stave them off and signage, you know, to kind of carry that day.
Talking about public servants, you know, so-called knocking on your door.
And I saw that kind of like when I went up against abortion.
The Holy Spirit just came up in my spirit and grabbed me and just would not let go in terms of how urgent it is for people to be prepared for a knock on the door.
Because they're coming.
They're already happening low grade.
They're beta testing stuff.
But anyway, so basically I started writing What would have been kind of a thick pamphlet, and it wound up being, you know, this thing, which is, you know, 480 page, 8.5 by 11 book.
You can see how thick it is.
You know, it's about three pounds.
But anyway, so wound up writing a book, not just on the knock on the door, but really the whole waterfront of where we find ourselves and what we've got to get prepared around.
Not only kind of in the physical realm, but frankly, just as much and more importantly, in the spiritual realm and getting right with God and getting sort of a good, solid foundation set for this storm that we're in now, but it continues to ramp up, continues to blow in.
It absolutely is.
Just to kind of take a step back in the info you were giving to the audience, I love that you say that you got into Infowars.
I tell people all the time, Infowars, man, through high school, through my early 20s, I was an Infowars regular, every single day listener.
And I really believe that Alex Jones and Infowars have done so much to wake people up.
And really wake you up to the entire spiritual battle that we're facing on every front.
For a very long time, that was really the only broadcast, the only news source that you could go to and see sort of what's happening behind the scenes.
And I think that it has woken so many people up to the just sheer evil that we're facing every day.
You know, you talk about anti-abortion work.
And, you know, every single day our culture has been so consumed with this evil, this scourge on mankind and this scourge on God's entire creation.
We have been just inundated with these evils in our society, you know.
You know, abortion is a major one of them.
And all of this is really attacking us in what's 100% become a culture war.
We are in a culture war.
We are in a spiritual war.
And, you know, I think that guys like you who can get out there and put the pen to paper and write a book and really start breaking it down so that the average man, the average woman on the street can start sifting through it and picking through it.
I think that's a public service.
You know, that's exactly what we need.
Someone that sifts through the minutiae can get it out there to the wider population because this is a major, major issue that has completely taken over, you know, to me, has taken over every single aspect of the lived experience of Americans and of people all over the world.
We're 100% on the battlefield every single day.
You know, I'd love for you to kind of get into, really, where can we begin with your book?
If there's one takeaway as far as waging, This counter-offensive in the culture war, the spiritual war, taking back what's ours as humans, this connection with God, this connection with our families, this connection with our earth.
If there's one thing that you could pick out of your book where people could start, what would it be?
Great question.
Thank you for that.
And let me start with a premise, okay?
If you're listening and you feel this spirit in you start to kind of rise up a little, like you want to change the channel, you want to turn to something else, you don't want to listen to this crap because we're talking about Jesus, I would just ask you just to set that aside for a few minutes.
Set aside what the world would do.
Have seep into you in terms of having an instinctive desire to turn away.
And I would just exhort you just to listen for a few minutes and ask yourself in your spirit, Is what Frankie and John, what they're talking about, is this two reasonable, switched on men sharpening iron together about truth, or is it not?
Because the world would have you say, oh, that stuff about Jesus, you know, Christianity, you know, they've done all this bad stuff, whatever.
Reject that.
Set that aside.
You can always turn it off later, right?
Set that aside for a minute and just hear us out, because there's a reason why the world hates Jesus, right?
It's because he's the hero of humanity.
He is the answer, and he's coming back, and they are shaking in their boots.
They are terrified about that.
And in the meantime, they're terrified about young, switched-on men plugging into that Ultimate life force that is faith in Jesus Christ and following it out like Him, switched on and up and hard and strong.
And to me, other than the actual return of Christ, that's the thing they're most afraid of.
So just set aside the disbelief, set aside that instinct, if you would, and just hear us out, okay?
So now on to the answer.
You know, it's interesting, Frankie, the more I watch this story of mankind roll out and roll forward, And the more I read scripture, the more I read scripture, and then I look at what's going on in the world, and I'm like, well, there it is.
If you start reading your Bible, dust it off and take the old beer can off of it, and you start reading your Bible, it'll curl your hair in terms of how on point it is, because it is right on point.
There's a verse in Isaiah 59.
It's verse 19.
And it says, when the enemy comes in like a flood, the spirit of the Lord shall raise up a standard against him.
Okay?
And for the longest time, I didn't really understand that.
Okay?
Well, first of all, I wasn't living in an era when the enemy was coming in like a flood.
Well, Brother, we're living in an era like that now, right?
I mean, I don't know anybody who would deny that the enemy is coming in like a flood.
This flood of evil is so pervasive.
It's so giant, and it's continuing, right?
So that much is true, and we're in it now.
But then there's the next part, right?
The Spirit of the Lord shall raise up a standard against him.
Well, Frankie, that's a battlefield picture, okay?
If you watch old, talking about somewhat older type battles, like the Civil War, Revolutionary War, War of 1812, Spanish-American War...
You've got cavalry, you've got infantry, you've got artillery, but you have these standard bearers, right?
And when the line started flagging and started breaking down, they would hold up that regimental colors and you're to rally to the colors, right?
So that's a battlefield picture of a standard bearer.
Which has multiple meanings, but, you know, standard being the colors of the army, but also standard being how we are to live, what we are to live by, or how we are to live, right?
Well, that's a call to arms.
That's a call to action.
And that is a call to the young men who follow you, who are like you, frankly, Frankie, It's time to get right, to get up, to get engaged, and to get involved, okay?
And so this whole picture, you know, the enemy thinks they are certain to win, right?
Because they have all the high ground in their mind, right?
And yet, there's God.
He raises this standard.
And then frankly, what I love is that, you know, Scripture will answer Scripture.
You don't have to sit there and wonder.
If you search a thing out, you will find the answer answered.
For the questions in your mind about what's going on in Scripture, what I love is that God gave us the answer.
You know, so the question is, well, what do I do, right?
I mean, okay, the standard goes up.
I'm supposed to, there's a call to action.
What do I do?
In the book of Daniel, chapter 11, verse 32, Daniel gives us the answer.
And I love it because it's so simple and yet it's so profound.
In chapter 11, verse 32, Daniel is actually talking about the Antichrist, okay?
And he's talking about these different attributes.
And then there's a comma.
And then Daniel says, But they that do know their God shall be strong and do exploits.
And the Hebrew for that is kazakh asah.
Be strong, kazakh asah.
And do exploits, Asa.
And that is a prophetic message from Daniel from 2,500 years ago, mind you, 5th century, 6th century BC, about young men, like you, young man, listening to Frankie and me talk right now, sharpening iron.
It's a call to you individually.
Individually, it's a description, prophetic description, millennia into the future of what the people are going to be like in this hour when this enemy is coming in like a flood.
And so if you're wondering how you're supposed to...
Folks, I want to talk to you about Gold Co.

Trump made a bold statement recently.
He said he could end the war in Ukraine in 24 hours without going after Russia.
He says, Russia is not the enemy, but this is, and it's currently targeting the U.S. as we speak.
The enemy wants to control us, our bank accounts, our assets, and practically enslave every U.S. citizen.
It's part of their sick and twisted plan.

Welcome back to In the Trenches with Teddy Daniels.
And again today for Teddy, I'm Frankie Stocks, reporter with National File, and I'm joined here by John Dislan.
He was really rolling when we went into the break.
We went straight into the break.
So I'm going to kick it back over to John, and he's just going to keep on spitting the truth to the audience.
This is great stuff.
This is exactly what we as Americans, especially Those in the audience who are like me, who are young men, who are really trying to make their way through life in this modern world of temptation and filth and spiritual attacks from all sides.
And this is exactly the type of stuff that we need to be talking about, the type of stuff that we need to be reading.
So I'm excited to have John here.
John, I'm going to kick it back to you and just let you take it right back for the audience here.
Okay, so just to finish up what I was saying, that prophetic description of people living in the last days, that's who you're supposed to be, young men.
You're supposed to be strong and do exploits.
You want to aspire to living up to that prophetic truth because I'm telling you, there are people on the battlefield in this battle space right now Living up to that exhortation and that prophetic truth.
They're on the field, the enemy hates their guts, the enemy knows who they are, and they are They are wielding a mighty sword, figuratively speaking, absolutely laying down devastation to the wickedness, to the plans of the enemy, to his wicked designs.
But keep in mind, it's because they know they're God, right?
It's a qualified Prophecy, they that do know their God.
So I guess my first exhortation really to your followers, Frankie, is you've got to get right with Jesus, okay?
And Jesus is the name of your salvation.
That's God's plan.
I'm sorry if you don't like that.
I'm sorry if the world and, you know, bad behaving Christians and bad people Theology and bad doctrine, all that kind of stuff clouded the waters, and you ascribe that to Jesus because there is nothing that is unattractive, unappealing, or non-heroic about Jesus.
So he laid down his life for you.
You get right with God through him.
You lay your jump down at the cross, let him carry it, and you pick up your cross, and then you get busy on this battlefield because, brother, It's on now, and the whole world needs you in this fight to turn, to pivot this chapter of history.
And we'd love to talk about that hard times, you know, cycle.
But we're in the hard times now, obviously.
But it needs good, hard, strong men who know who they are in Christ, To carry this day, and you're needed in this fight.
If you're listening, I can't exhort you enough.
We need you in this fight.
Yeah, 100%.
You bring up the strong times, the hard times cycle, and that is one of my favorite sayings, one of my favorite little inscriptions that you can read anywhere, that strong men create good times, the good times create weak men, who then create the hard times, and then strong men have to once again rise and create the good times.
And that is really where we are right now, is we are in the hard times.
And we have got to see, en masse, strong men of all ages rising up and doing their duty to really get us back to where we need to be.
I want to ask you, what is something that folks can do, you know, whether it's a first step or whether it's something they can get up and do every day, what can you do to really prime yourself for this fight and prime yourself to go out and make a difference and start taking action?
And just through your own, your personal relationship with God, your personal relationship with your peers, how you can really ready yourself to get up and get out and go make a difference in the world.
You can get up and really be a soldier in what's becoming a kinetic fight of spirit and information.
Yep.
Amen.
Great, great, great points.
So, the first step, look, you just, like I said before, you know, if you've got hangups about church, Christianity, raised Catholic, you know, never went to church, whatever, you've got to lay all that aside.
Like, it's just time to get real, it's time to get busy, and it's time to get serious with your Savior, and His name is Jesus, okay?
So, you know, to me, the first foundational pieces are...
You need to plug in with believers.
You need to wrestle with God.
I was talking with my wife just yesterday and talking about the irony of God changing Jacob's name to Israel.
And he only changed his name to Israel after Jacob literally wrestled all night with God.
And so at the end of this, and of course God was humoring Jacob because God could have ended that in an instant, but he honored Jacob's wrestling with him.
And at the end of that, Jacob said, you know, I'm not letting go of you until you bless me.
That was Jacob's spirit.
He was contentious.
He would wrestle with God and he wouldn't let go.
But God honored that.
And he said, you know, your name is no longer Jacob.
Your name is Israel.
Israel actually means he who wrestles with God.
And so that entire nation of God's people, Israel, is named after something that God wants us honored and God wants us to engage in, which is wrestling with him.
So in the spirit of that, I challenge you.
You got all these hangups.
I get it.
Most of us have something, right?
Lay that down and go wrestle with God, the real God, not the BS churches and the false doctrine and all that.
Set that aside.
Go seek out real teachers, real strong believing men, and pick up your Bible and get on your knees.
And I dare you to challenge God to show up in your life.
And he will show up in amazing ways.
So that's the first thing.
You have to get squared away so that you're qualified to be on this battlefield that Daniel was talking about.
They do know their God, okay?
The next thing I would recommend folks do is you've got to embrace and acquire a warrior mindset.
You know, I think most all young men have kind of an instinctive ethos For war.
And, you know, we grew up dreaming about flying jets and playing, you know, cops and robbers and, you know, good guys, bad guys, all that kind of stuff.
Cowboys and Indians, whatever.
Maybe I'm dating myself because I grew up in the 70s for that context.
But there's a reason why that warrior ethos is woven into us, because The world and God and society rely On good, strong, well-grounded young men to fight the fight and protect all of society, frankly, from the wicked.
And obviously the wicked are ascendant in this season we're living in, but it never stays that way for long.
And what turns the tide is strong young men who recognize a right fight and charge into that fight in a right manner.
To, you know, rightfully, lawfully, and as far as it goes, and we are able peacefully to shove The evil and the wicked back behind the gates of hell, frankly.
So, to me, that second piece is that warrior mindset.
And, you know, follow people like Frankie.
Follow people like Stu Peters, like Alex Jones, like Teddy, like me.
You know, follow men who are a little further or way further down the path than you are, and let them sharpen iron with you, for you.
Watch us, you know, folks like Frank and me sharpen iron, and come to understand the nature of what the call is on your life, because you're called to be on this battlefield and to be a right warrior who knows your God, who is storming the gates of hell, frankly.
And as Jesus put it, the gates of hell will not withstand my church.
He wants you to be part of his body, active body on this earth, which is the church, on the battlefield railing against the evil, okay?
And then the next point I would add is really dig in to understanding the spiritual nature of this war that we're involved in.
You know, the world would have you be blind.
The world would have you not see that All of this insane wickedness that is bubbling up through the sewers.
It starts in the spiritual realm.
Like, this spiritual war has been raging for ages.
We don't know how long.
But it's raging in the spiritual realm, and now what we are seeing...
I mean, when I was growing up in the 70s, you could not imagine...
A huge swath of this wickedness going on now.
I mean, just about everything.
You just couldn't imagine it.
Unless, of course, you read your Bible and then you still couldn't wrap your mind around it.
Well, it's here now.
But it only makes sense in the context of understanding that all of this wickedness going on started in the spiritual realm.
And this wickedness is cascading over.
It's flooding over like that Isaiah 59 language, right?
Evil coming in like a flood.
It's flooding over now into the natural realm, the physical realm, our walking around realm.
And here's the thing.
If you have a hypothesis about what's going on or a framework for the world, and it doesn't explain absolutely everything about the world, it's not right.
It doesn't fit.
Well, if you acquire a biblical worldview that accepts the The wicked aspect of the spiritual realm, everything makes sense.
And once everything makes sense, it really kind of gives you a calm and the ability to steel yourself in your spirit and then get busy and then get active on the battlefront to storm the gates of hell.
So my third point would be dig in and do your homework and come to an understanding That we're in it because the spiritual realm is now invading or overwhelming in the natural realm.
Does that make sense?
Yes, it does.
It absolutely does.
I love that you say that you've got to sharpen iron, because that's really what we're doing, is you're sharpening iron with your fellow believers, with your fellow Americans.
You're getting together.
And this is what we could call them the globalists.
We can call them the Satanists.
You can call them any number of things.
But the people on the other side of this, this is what they don't want.
They want you isolated.
They want you by yourself.
They want you to feel like there's no answer to the problems that are going on in the world or to feel like you're just a freak and you're the only guy that's against this.
You know, before before I really embraced, I'd say embraced the more spiritual side of this, I was I was lost.
I would be, you know, much younger high school age, starting to get into this, sifting around through the information, trying to see what's going on.
And it didn't really add up.
There was always this missing component.
And the missing component is really they are coming to attack and break your spirit.
Your very thing that makes you a person is what they want to come after and they want to destroy.
And that is the ultimate target, you know.
The phrase, fifth generation warfare, gets thrown around.
But that's what we're facing here, 110%.
And John, I think you have some knowledge, some background that you could share with the audience on fifth generation warfare, if you'd like to get into that.
I find all of this, how everything synergizes and everything comes together, I find to be totally fascinating.
Just the other day, Just the other day on this program, I mentioned intersectionality.
We hear a lot about intersectionality and this academic idea that everything intersects politically and culturally.
But really, you know, that's not that far off.
When you look at the way that every single facet of what's going on in our society intersects with a spiritual attack, it makes a lot more sense when you look at it that way.
Yeah.
And let me just exhort your listeners, Frankie, because I love this.
And look, I didn't make up the iron sharpening thing.
I'm borrowing from Proverbs 27, 17 that says, as iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.
And I love that picture, Frankie, because, you know, you and I, as we're sitting here talking and your audience is benefiting from hearing us talk, You know, you and I are sharpening each other, but we're also sharpening the false listening.
So I'm so delighted for this opportunity and just delighted that the young men listening right now get to benefit from this.
I want to exhort the folks who are listening to you because, you know, I've got a couple of daughters and they've said to me more than once, they've said, Dad, you know, We wish we were growing up in the 80s, you know?
And I really can appreciate that because when I grew up, everything was just so much simpler.
Everything was so much brighter and sort of cheerful and more optimistic and more robust and what's the right word?
Prosperous.
You know, it was good times, right?
And now we're in the hard times that make the good men.
One point that I really want to exhort these folks listening, if you're listening to this, listening to our voices, Frankie was talking about the answer.
What's the answer?
You know, how do we figure this thing out?
What's the answer?
Let me tell you a secret.
If you're listening to my voice, You are the answer, okay?
You in Christ, you figuring it out with your God, you get your feet set in battle, right?
You can't fight off balance.
You can't fight with a narrow stance.
You got to be feet wide, planted, ready to go, forward-leaning, You get that posture through your faith, through wrestling with God like Israel, right?
You get that squared away and you Listening to me right now, you are our enemy's worst nightmare because you are the storm.
Okay?
You're the answer.
And that's why hopefully you can feel the urgency of my voice.
I'm exhorting you to get busy, to get plugged in, and to get real about this season because we're in it now.
And human history is looking to you to be that generation of good men.
Who stand up and charge into the breach and shove this evil back behind the gates of hell.
Okay, so back to what you're saying about total war.
You know, when you when you stick your nose into human trafficking and satanic ritual abuse you really kind of you're in it, you know, and There are people like the hero that the movie Sound of Freedom is based on.
He's done far, far more than I have.
My calling kind of took me in this direction of writing.
But I certainly got a nose full.
I went on a bunch of trips, a bunch of clandestine type stuff, a bunch of training and face to face with some truly wretched, wicked people.
Although we're all wretched, okay?
So I'm wretched too, but I mean, we're talking about people doing some horrific stuff.
And what you come to realize is it's all part of a comprehensive battle space, okay?
When you look at World War II, you study World War II, you think, oh, well, that's what war is.
Well, it's what war was.
And We talk now about fifth generation warfare or total war.
What it really ought to be called is, you know, satanic warfare.
because it is absolutely filled.
It is saturated, super saturated with deception.
Think about how much easier it would be to slowly kill a population via a thousand different methods and means if they never knew that you were killing them, you were trying to kill them.
That's what I mean by total war.
It's total deception.
For example, For example, I mean, we could spend days on this, right?
Would it interest you to know that the substance used by scientists to develop cancer in rats to test new pharmaceuticals for cancer treatment is that they put nitrites in Into the food of the rats.
And then the rats just bloom these cancers, these tumors.
Well, nitrites are what they put on your sliced meat that you were going to eat for lunch, and hopefully now you don't.
And so that's one little example.
Like I said, we could go for days with that.
So we are being attacked in a total war situation To basically eradicate humanity, because that was always Satan's plan, right?
And yeah, that's horrific, and that's terrifying, and that's awful.
But God, right?
God has a plan.
God is...
Forever in control, and God is going to win this thing.
And in the meantime, God wants you on his team, on Team Jesus, storming the gates of hell.
But that's what I mean by total war.
We're being attacked on every waterfront.
You can't turn to any part of life and not see the attack of the enemy.
And that's the battle space we're in now.
Yeah, I love that you bring up the nitrites in the food, and that you bring it up alongside your experience combating and taking on the satanic ritual abuse and trafficking of children, because these two massive components of this is that, yes, they are coming for our children, and yes, they are coming to poison us through our very own food supply.
These are two massive components.
Kind of like you mentioned, we can talk about that For two or three days and feel like we've barely scratched the surface.
It is just completely all-consuming, these plots and these attacks on the things that are most important to everyone.
Your actual physical health, your physical ability to live through having food, through having a reliable food supply, and your children.
These are two things that are central to everyone's life, and they're two things that are under complete and total constant attack at this point.
It's incredible just to see the way that this has developed and has played out.
You mentioned back in the 80s, back in the 70s, not being able to imagine this.
I mean, even when I look back and think of myself growing up in the 90s, in the 2000s, I look back and think that world is an antiquity.
It's nothing like what we have anymore.
It's really crazy the way that our entire world...
And I look back and kind of a watershed moment for me is 9-11.
I think that's more just the era that I grew up in.
But there is something to that.
That was almost like a moment where the veil sort of dropped.
And where a lot of what was in store for us came accelerated and it started playing out a lot faster than it had been.
So when I look back, I see 9-11 as this huge watershed moment in the The way that our entire world has changed and has been totally uprooted.
And, you know, one thing that I think about a lot, one thing that I wonder every day, am I doing enough, is the preparedness aspect of this.
You know, be prepared, like you said, sort of at the start of the interview, the knock on the door.
You know, be prepared for when that knock comes.
You know, what is...
What can you do?
What can you do to be prepared?
And if you'd like to go in also to really, who's going to be knocking on that door?
What is that not going to entail?
You know, what should we be ready for, worst case scenario?
Yeah.
Let me backtrack just for a split second, because you touched on something and then you kept going, I want to really exhort the folks listening to us sharpen iron over.
And that's Uh, being amazed and astounded and fixated on these wicked, uh, plots and plans of the enemy and, and, and active actions of the enemy.
I think it's important for you young man listening.
It's important to be aware.
It's important to get switched on to get red pilled, right?
Like Neo in the matrix.
I mean, I always think of that.
It's like, man, I'm, You know, it's ugly, but I'm glad I took the red pill as opposed to just like living in this make-believe world, blue pill world where, you know, everything's make-believe, everything's crap and, you know, nothing's real.
So it's important to get red pilled.
It's important to get switched on, but do not...
Do not get overly fixated on watching this amazing rollout of evil in this season.
And I say that confessionally because I spent this long season staring into the abyss.
It really woke me up and put me into action.
Once I got square with Jesus and got my salvation squared away.
But it's just imperative.
Don't get fixated on this evil.
Be aware.
Be watchful.
And we're exhorted in Scripture, particularly the New Testament, to be watchful, be watchful, be watchful.
But don't get frozen by these...
It's astounding actions of the enemy, right?
Take note and then get on the battlefield and take action.
Okay, so the knock on the door.
When I say knock on the door, what I'm speaking about, because there's home invasion tactics where they knock on the door and then all of a sudden they flood in.
There's actually a supplement about that, having countermeasures against home invasion, which is one of my favorite supplements in the book.
But what I'm talking about with that knock on the door is really...
Jack boots of tyrants masquerading as public servants, knocking on your door to coerce you with fear and a facade of authority to make you do something you ought not do and don't want to do.
That's the knock on the door, okay?
And what's astounding is you have an astounding amount of Resources and tactics.
So much of it is understanding and having the knowledge, but there's an array of tactics and strategies and equipping that you can get to carry that day.
To me, the first thing, Frankie, is the understanding that They're basically putting on a theater for you, and it's like a horror show.
You know, they knock on your door, and then they try and make you so afraid and so cowed by their supposed authority that you'll do whatever they want you to do.
Well, screw them, you know, and pardon my language, but it's your door, it's your house, it's your yard, it's your front stoop of your apartment, whatever.
You're the king of your castle.
And so when they come knocking on your door, first of all, I've got seven pages of questionnaires that they're going to have to answer if they're going to be talking to me and getting a first question answered from me, okay?
And that questionnaire is basically going to put them on notice and put them dead to rights that...
There's an astounding degree of personal liability that that human being standing there is going to have on their heads if they trample on my constitutional rights or if any harm comes to me whatsoever.
So that's kind of game one or step one.
Understanding that you're to run the show, right?
It's your time.
You didn't ask for this.
You run the show and you step then back by running this whole show.
You reject the fear.
And I talk at length about fear and what a con it is in the book, Frankie, because fear is the primary lever they try and use on you to do what they want you to do.
And then other tools like, for example, forming a mutual assistance team.
There's a whole chapter in the book on how to form that team, how to use discernment, how to do background checks, how to evaluate somebody.
You don't want bad apples.
But to team up, so they come and knock on your door, all of a sudden a dozen of your closest friends are there.
You're all videoing everything, so you're making a video document of what transpires to use legally afterwards against them.
I mean, by the time you're done with them, if you use these various strategies we're talking about, and there's a lot more details in the book, the last place on earth they want to be is at your door.
And all they're looking for at that point is just an excuse to get away.
I always want to be 100% prepared for the event that does happen.
This reminds me of a story that we had up on National File.
This was, you know, probably, time flies, probably close to a year ago now.
But there was an instance in Delaware where the ATF, where Delaware state troopers, came to a man's house, they knocked on his door, and they demanded to see his firearms.
This was a law-abiding citizen.
This was just, you know...
Yes, exactly.
They want to come.
They want to try to roll these things out step by step, see who they can get, what percentage of people they can get to go along with it.
And they're really just using fear.
Like you said, the agent's kind of sitting there threatening, well, I'd hate to have to go get a warrant.
Or, you know, we're going to have to come back and next time we're going to come back with a whole bunch of guys because we're going to have a warrant.
So it's really just fear and what they can get you to sort of ease your way into for the sake of comfort and of maintaining really all the material items and the material comforts and luxuries that we have in our lives.
We've been in large part quelled by a bunch of made in China plastic stuff, quelled with five and below's on every corner.
You know, it's it's really it's just it's a pacifier.
It's a pacifier to sit sit down, surrender your sovereignty, surrender your spirit and your spiritual sovereignty.
And it's it's it's a it's a pacifier is really what it is.
And they're going to be testing, they have been testing, how far they can take things.
We saw it all with COVID as well.
John, we're almost out of time here, but I want to give you a few more minutes.
If, you know, anything that you want to get out to the audience, you've got about three minutes.
I'll kick it back to you.
And anything you want to touch on, it is all yours.
Okay.
I would just...
There's so much detail in the book.
It took me two years to write.
Like I said, it's 480 pages.
It kind of covers...
It's my one conversation.
If I get one conversation with somebody, I didn't want to leave anything out.
So that's why it's so huge.
It took so long.
But with the time I have left, I would simply say, playing off of what you just said, Frankie, about that Delaware visit, The tyrants and their jackboots, who are the locals who show up, who are either too evil or too stupid to recognize that they are violating the very oath that they took and the Constitution that even allows them to be standing there.
In this season, when that is going on, Right back to what I started with, Frankie, that those poor deluded men standing on that front porch talking that bullcrap that they were talking, they are the evil that is coming in like a flood.
Can you see that?
And so that's the season we live in.
If we won't push back now, and we won't stand up, and we won't get in this fight now, Winston Churchill gave a speech about this.
There's coming a season when, possibly, if we don't stand up now, when victory will no longer be in hand, but we will stand up and fight and push back simply because it's the right thing to do when we can't imagine victory.
Bending our knees to tyranny and living on our knees, right?
Let's not wait till that season comes to pass.
I'm utterly convinced, Frankie, if we stand up in this season, we push back against the evil and we shove it back behind the gates of hell, we can carry the day in fairly rapid fashion in this season that we live in.
But it is so dependent on you listening to our voices now.
For you to understand that you're the storm.
You're the answer.
You're what they're terrified of, frankly.
But you've got to put down your play console.
You've got to get right with Jesus, okay?
There's no other name by which man can be saved, okay?
Get right with Jesus.
Get squared away in your spirit.
And then the beauty of that is that once you get that squared away and you're switched on and you step on that battlefield and you are qualified because you know you're God, like Daniel 11, there's nothing they can do.
You're unstoppable.
And that's the real secret I would want to leave your listeners with, Frankie.
Know God and you'll be completely unstoppable.
That is really all of this in a nutshell.
That's what I've learned in my life as far as going through and sifting through all of this and trying to get into a position where you can stand up and say enough is enough.
That's what it all comes back to.
It's just having that relationship with God, having God in your heart, in your soul.
It's all the strength in the world.
It's all the strength that you can really ever need.
