Episode 1,673 - Should We Pray for The US Dollar To FAIL?: Zach Abraham joins (AUDIO & VIDEO)
My friend Zach Abraham, Chief Investment Officer at Bulwark Capital Management, brought up an interesting fact about the U.S. dollar. It's actually not always used by choice. In fact, most of the time, it's not used by choice. That reminded me of something that's occurred at Microsoft, where they were so used to having their products be something people had to use because it's what is in the workplace, that they weren't ready for a time when people could choose a different product. Zach thought that was a pretty spot-on comparison to what can happen to our dollar as there are new payment systems available. He pointed out that we may be right to actually pray that the U.S. dollar collapses and fails. Now, why would Zach say something like that? And on the topic of God, we also discussed something that I would call a spiritual KPI (a key performance indicator) of your family's relationships and relationships with friends. It's a chart that would have the fruit of the spirit and the biblical definition of love on a horizontal and vertical axis. I shared this with Zach.
What does God’s Word say?
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

Episode 1,674 - The “Cheap Fakes” Lie Could Become a New Form of Censorship Unless We Get Ahead of The Left (AUDIO & VIDEO)
Cheap fakes and a cheap excuse. The people who run Joe Biden are saying they're all cheap fakes. It's all deep fakery. Joe Biden's fine. You remember when Rahm Emanuel talked about never letting a good crisis go to waste? I think they've got a plan behind this now. Why censor things when you can do something else? I think there's a policy coming. I think you're going to see some watermarks on videos, but from “trusted” media organizations. And, as we talk through cheap fakery and deep fakery, the deep fakery of academia appears to have no bottom. This is a professor explaining why we have a parental relationship saying that the state needs to be the ultimate guarantor of a child's well-being.
What does God’s Word say?
A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who breathes out lies will perish.
You are of your father the devil, and your will is to do your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks out of his own character, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.”
A faithful witness does not lie, but a false witness breathes out lies.
