Welcome back. This is chaos in Christ podcast. My name is Alexi, and I'm really glad that you're tuning in. last episode got a pretty decent rise. I'm not going to lie a lot of hits. I don't know if this was good or bad, But either way. My hope is that you got some perspective out of that More positive. Gave you more context? And allowed you to just kind of take a step back and just recognize what we're dealing with here. But today. This episode is coming out the day before election day. And so I thought it would be wise to kind of just talk about that. Leave you some words of wisdom and just to share my heart with you guys. as a conservative here as a, as a Christian. The whole buildup to, to this election has been definitely on my mind for the last four years. It was very disappointed that Trump had lost the last election. I am one of those people that believe that it was stolen. To each his own. You know, maybe it really wasn't, but, there's just too many anomalies, too many things that just do not add up. And that's just where I stand. But here we are. And obviously, I like to think that I've grown in the last four years. And I'd like to think that maybe. You know, you have as well. What I want to do is kind of look at this video. Here, of a father, Calvin Robinson. He says something here. That I just think it's good to hear. This has been my battle cry since 2020. This has been, what's been on my mind in my heart ever since then. And I want to obviously give you a different voice. From a man who's coming from the UK. Giving us a warning, then we'll talk a little bit about that from there. I just want to discuss the real problems in our own country here. this spy who wins. There's some serious things that we still need to acknowledge. And then I just want to look at a few passages of Psalms 37. I kind of talk about Psalms 37. I'm just going to touch in on a little bit of verses that I think could be very. Encouraging and comforting for all of us, for myself included. So, let me go ahead and just get into this short video. And we'll talk a little bit about that. Father Kelvin Robinson. I must start off with an apology. I came from England. This is how I speak. I hope you can still understand me. But I call me in love with a warning. My beautiful nation. Your mother lens. Has folded. England is no longer. It is a beautiful shell. Reminiscence of a time when people believed in Christ. And they built monuments. The Memorial of Christ. Where architects may build something that they will never see the fruits off of. Because it was for greater glory of God. Oh, I have to stop right there for a quick second. See if you've noticed something, even in our own country. What happened in 2020 when you finally the revolution and basically the mass was taken off. And the things that were being taught to our students, to us, and even in my time in our school system, into the college, what happened. Everyone began to tear things down. Riot started to kind of come forth. And then there was a attacks on different statues because of, of, supposedly racism histories within these statues. So they, defaced them, they tumbled them. Destroyed destroyed. And that's what the enemy does. There's there's really nothing ever beautiful about the enemy. That's the whole point, right? in a worldview and a philosophy that has anti-God anti-Christ. Has nothing to do nor want anything to do with Christianity. Then you don't get things being built out of beauty. You get grotesque, anger, destruction in chaos. That is what you get. and you can see that even into the human person. I mean, let's be very honest here. When you look at people on the far extreme left you see. A level of ugliness that is displayed outwardly. And I know they're going to be some people that say that is very mean, but I'm a believer that how you represent yourself on the outside is reflective of what's going on within And, you know, there's a lot of joking around online. When there's videos captured of left is raging or having some sort of episode. They look a particular way. And people on the common section will typically say, why do they always look that way? And I've definitely participated. because there is a common theme there. They look that way because there's something inside that is ugly already. That is all that is holding onto darkness and weak. We can't help ourselves, but to live out what we believe. If it's a nihilistic, if it's dark, if it's a philosophy that nothing matters. That you and I are just. Dust particles bumping into each other. Then you don't have this. Grander purpose to live for, so you can make it up as you go. And when you are convinced about your history as being a history full of racism, a bigotry, colonialism, just straight murdering and slavery and all that. When you're fully convinced. Of all of that. There's no hope in you. You're not going to go build anything. You're not going to go and be. a light in the midst of darkness. And build new things for the glory of God, because you don't, you don't fear God, you probably hate him. And you're convincing yourself that you don't believe in him. But in your hanger and hatred, it is he who you rage against. And so what Calvin is talking about. In his time. When he talks about architecture, when he talks about cathedrals and things that men would take hundreds of years to build a day themselves in participation of that building will never see in their lifetime. They will continue to do it for the glory of God. They understood that what they were doing was far greater than themselves. Be understood that they would go and labor building these sanctuaries, building these buildings, building these, just the beauty of it all. Putting detail and effort, sweat and toil. All of that. To potentially never actually seen it come to fruition. They would live their entire lives and die before the project would be done. But they did it. Because they had a sense of eternity. They had a sense of glory that far surpass the here and now in this realm. And in this time and in our bodies, And so he's, he says that. That is what the scriptures, the gospel does. When we receive the gospel message. And not only redeems you and saves you, but then it commissions us to go and make disciples of the nations and to go and make everyone disciples, teaching them. In the name of the father, son and the holy spirit. And what else do you think that happens? I mean, it's not just theological spiritual reformation. That's explained all of that then surfaces out into the world and how we do business and what we build and how we care for one another. The gospel. Is an impact. the, the human soul, it's a miracle ended of itself that he would give us grace. And then that grace just kind of extends out with good works now because we're saved from those good works. But because of the goodness and grace of God, we, we live to serve one another as he has created us. Wow. I didn't think I was going to get that deep into this, but I mean, it's so true. What he's talking about. he's saying that's what it once was for his country. And he calls his country, our motherland, because if you know our history, that is where we came from. Essentially so anyway, let's continue on with what he's saying. Unfortunately. The average attendance of a church in the United Kingdom is 25. People who stopped going to church and they've stopped praying. And as a result, The Marxists have taken over the average English. Family. The birth rates at 1.4. I'm no longer replacing each other. At the same time we have massive illegal. Legal immigration. Which means that's the Mohammed. Reading those tens one for the first time in my nation's history. Christianity is no longer the predominant faith. What a sad. Sad. Reality. And the thing is. We actually a lot of us cheer this on as if it's a good, inclusive thing. And we don't realize what is going to happen. we have no connection with Islam guys. I just gotta be 100% honest with you. Their beliefs and what they teach. Is completely the opposite. Of the scriptures of the Bible. Like it. It can't coincide. And look, let's keep it even more honest. Let's look into the countries that have been dominated by Islam. And have been cemented in that belief alone. And you tell me if you would live in those countries. I bet you, you want it. You might say that I'm a bigger for saying that stuff, but that is just real and I'm just tired. Of this week. Just as weak demeanor that men have here in my country, specifically as well, who can't have the goals to just say it. And look, what's happening to UK. They're the church. Attendance is low. Guess what? It is low in America. And the only churches that are so jam packed in America are those have just charismatic. Name and it claimant nonsense. There's no real substance there. The scriptures aren't actually being proclaimed. It's all about me. Me, me. How do I feel? Play my Hillsong. Make me feel good. There was no one there, why we are seeing judgment in our own country. Let's continue. Probably in my lifetime. As long that will be the predominant site. The United Kingdom. So I come here to warn you. Don't do what we do. Keep up the prayer. Keep the cute. The church was full. Oh way just this month alone. In fact, just this weekend, my friend was arrested. For releasing a documentary, but justice month. I've had a friend. Arrested charged and found guilty. Silence. I talked about this in my, the episode before the last one. About the persecution that's coming. And I looked into this very story that, Calvin Robinson is speaking about. This man was someone else. Silently praying in front of the abortion clinic. And it was a, it was a story about his own son and the abortion that took place in his own personal life. So I can imagine. That might've been in an emotional time and maybe some reconciliation. With him and the Lord. for that decision. But they were approached. And we're asked, what is the, nature of your prayer? And like I said, in the last episode that this is a form of thought crime, right? And if you read the book, George Orwell's 1984, you would understand where that term comes from, comes from there. and it's ultimately where, if you so much as have a different thought that goes against the narrative or whatever the state says, That you're allowed to have a view. Have, if you perceive to have any thoughts that goes against it, that is a crime and you could be jailed and UK. And that's what he's talking about. I already spoke about this. In another episode. bill, listen to it because we have someone similar in our country, Ms. Bevel and Betty, who is in prison now. For, peacefully protesting in front of abortion clinic. And she's a mother. Wife. In prison. Like, that's the reality of what we're dealing with here now. In our own country. So we've gone past the points of these mocks is bleaching. Pleasing our language. I'm policing. To them policing. We have these buffer zones around abortion sentences, where the police come up to you and say, are you praying for the lives of unborn children? And if you say yes, He gets arrested. Because the Marxists appreciate the power of prayer. They appreciate that. I'll go. As a true and living God. And wants to help the vulnerable. That does not want us killing. Or offspring. Just wanted that to be the case. And so my message to you guys that keep the monks. Away. I keep the Marxist away. And that has been my battle cry. That has been my focus. This is the chaos. I'm talking about this philosophy. Of Marxism is a poisonous philosophy. It places you as a victim. And it creates. a dividing line between the oppressed and the oppressor. And with us. They have done. So. On a cultural basis. With different, you know, sub philosophies that live under Marxism, you have critical race theory, critical theory. You have intersectionality. you have this white privilege guilt. and, and, you know, just having to, I guess be an activist against your own white privilege. If you are indeed a white person. we've had so many. variables of this oppressing oppressor in our day? because there's just so many things that people can feel victimized. about. the media strokes, the fire of this philosophy consistently, which is why the last conversation I had on this podcast about. What they did with the Puerto Rican community is also something that's based in Marxism because what are they doing? They are marginalizing and taking a group of a community and making them feel like they are the oppressed right there. They've been disrespected. The elites, look at them like they're garbage. And look at this. Do you see that? And now these, these are the guys that we see as oppressors, and now we need to vote in the way that they are trying to influence us. critical race theory, black lives matter during that time, that was a whole nother example. The LGBTQ. craze that was going on. And then all of a sudden morphing into the transgender movement. Intersectionality is another sort of philosophy that again, rooted in Marxism. Just gives you points for more things that make you oppressed. So, if you are, for example, a black. Woman. Lesbian then you have more oppression on you, right? If you were a white, what they call cisgender male with a wife, kids and a career. That's the oppressor. And that's like that, that intersectionality of things that kind of connects the dots and makes you the most. Oppressed. In that system. That's what we're dealing with. That is what we are dealing with. Marxism is a poison. Okay. And Marxism takes a whole of post-modern. Philosophy as well. Because in their defense of just being victims all the time. And then wanting to be. Accepted for their sexual perversion. The post-modern thinking the, the moral relativism is that your truth is my truth. My truth is your truth. And if you try to impose your truth on mine, then that's another form of being, you know, a big or oppressive or something like that. But that philosophy dies on its own logic. It can't be true because the minute I say that, my true says, Jersey is a lie. You have to agree with it because it's my truth. But you know, you won't agree with it because it offends you. You see what I'm saying? That's all Marxism. All right. There may be different variables. They have different names, they do different things, but. I think when you boil down to it, if you're just a victim minded person, And every one is to blame, but yourself and you don't take any personal responsibility. And this is a philosophy for you. This is the worldview for you. And it will destroy. It will bring about chaos. But you know what the answer to that chaos is. Christ the gospel, the word of God. That is why this podcast exists. And that is why I will do this. And so Jesus comes back. Because dad is my fight. Let's keep going. Calvin Robinson has got me fired up. All schools. We talked price judiciary. Thoughts about public life. Don't do the same. I think we got that you guys have your first amendment that protects you or your second amendment. Believe in those amendments. The Marxist once. Erosional constitution because they forget. Your rights do not come from. The government, your rights come from God. And we need support Jesus Christ back. At the head of everything, including the state. I say Jesus Christ may not be on the pilot's box. So, you know what to do. I mean, I don't know if I really need to add anything to that. Because it's true. we need to recognize who the real king is. And that's Christ. Crisis the king. And as soon as we recognize that, and as soon as we recognize here as Americans, that the constitution isn't giving us our rights, it's protecting our rights already given by God almighty himself. As soon as we recognize this. I think things can definitely change, but here's the thing. By the time you listened to this. episode, if you're hearing it on the day it's released, it's the day before election, and then obviously many other people might be, tuning in a little bit after. Whether you listened to this before or after. The reality is it really doesn't matter whether Kamala Harris or Donald Trump getting into office. We still have war against this Marxism. Ideology. We still have this. In the air and it is infiltrated. Everything. Everything our media, our institutions, our universities, our grammar schools, high schools, libraries, music, movies. I mean everything. And that is what. This does. Now don't get me wrong. I think that we use common sense and I think God allows us to use common sense. In the here and now, as far as who we vote in as our president. And that is why it is our very right and our duty. And we should take full responsibility to cast our vote. Which means to make a choice. And I think the wise choice is to vote Donald Trump. Is he a perfect guy? Absolutely not. And don't, you dare say that I'm trying to claim the he's some sort of savior that is refuted here right now. That that is just a man. He bleeds like anyone else. And honestly, brother's sister, if you have like this weird of affection towards Trump, that you'd think that maybe he's the second coming. You need to repent. You need to find someone to talk to. And, kind of pray this out. Okay. Because that is just a man and he, I personally don't believe he's a Christian. I really don't. You know, I think that he. acknowledges a higher power that himself. And he calls him God. And I think he aligns a little bit more culturally on the Christian side, but I've heard some things and see some things in. I'm not convinced. I'm not convinced, but nevertheless, I'm not looking for him to be, my Christian. King or something like that. No. I want him to do the job just much like he did in, the first term. Policy-wise economic wise. He was a very good president and held his policies and his promises. Almost to the tee shirt. He didn't get everything done, but he got most done in my lifetime than I've ever heard of, or I've ever learned of any other president that has done in the past. So I say vote Donald Trump. If you haven't done it already. Look, I already know what we're going to get with Kamala Harris. You already know what you will get. If you do your homework with who she is. And then just pay attention to how she talks and interviews. And in different scenes, this woman is a chameleon. She, she has no actual personality. She's just adapting to whatever, whoever likes her. And she's going to just fake laugh her way through it. She's an empty suit of a person. Not very wise, not very smart, low IQ, but definitely craves power. Very dangerous because those may great tyrants. Well, great for those that are controlling her. Well, wool to us. To have someone like that. And look, I'm not going to get into the history of Kamala Harris right now. But aside from that, Donald Trump gets in. Fantastic. We still have that thing that we have to deal with. We still have a severe problem in the churches today. Either a, the gospel is not actually being preached. And there's, there's just a lot of softness, right? We're not actually getting the meat and potatoes of what the scriptures teach. Because we're afraid of offending people. and then. B, most people aren't even going to church. In general. We've adopted this idea of Christianity, where we can take a lot of the sins that we appreciate and enjoy. And then yeah, we'll throw in a little Christianity in there, but then, that's it that's, you can't mess with these things here, but we get offended. If someone says we're not Christian, so you like, that's the cultural Christianity. That's a problem right now. So even if Donald Trump gets in, there's so much that we are still going to face. There's so much, that's still gonna happen. And I doubt that the left is just going to leave it alone and let it be. So we need to be on our guard. And we need to still recognize and do some soul searching. Who are we? As people as Americans, as a human being, as whoever you've, wherever you find yourself in the work that you do, who are you? And then if your concern is. Kamala Harris winning which a I share in that concern. I really do. But if your concern is in that, then. This is the portion of this podcast. And I just want to give you some comfort off of scripture. I have here on my screen. If you're watching this on X. Psalm chapter 37. I'm going to read just a few of these. So I would encourage you to read the whole thing. But I'm going to go ahead and touch on verse one, read on down until I think I'm going to stop and just kind of we'll sit there and we'll end this podcast, but, verse one, chapter 37 reads. Fret, not yourself because of evildoers. And be not envious of wrongdoers. For, they will soon fade like the grass. And whether like the green herb. I love. I love that. Fret, not yourself. what I love about this is it almost says like chill out. Don't panic. Don't let yourself get so burdened with anxiety and fear. Because of the evil doers that you can clearly see are there. Don't worry about the Kamala Harris is in the world. Don't worry about the democratic party actually succeeding. It's a scary thought. Don't get me wrong. But here we are. because if you will doers. Be not envious. Wrongdoers. And that's, you know, That's for anyone, right? Because we can look at wrongdoers and distinct Manny, get away with everything. I have the power. They have the respect. You know, no one messes with them. They don't have to go through the persecution. But the word of God here selling us to. Not to be envious of them. Because they're going to fade like the grass. There is an expiration date on evildoers. They will wither like the green herb. That is a fact. It will happen. God's time is not our time. And that's where our frustration comes from. We wish. and desire for it to be now. And if it was up to you and me, it'd be now. God. Is wise. He is sovereign. And he sees the beginning from the end and he's working all things. For our good and for his glory. And so what are we instructed to do in verse three? We read trust in the Lord. And do good. That's key. And then the second part of that is, oh man, it's even even better. So it says trust in the Lord and do good. And then it goes on to say, Dwell in the land and be friend faithfulness. Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart. please read the entire chapter, do a study. Take it to your church. And just really dive into it. It is my sense of comfort and hope. But anyway, So we're not to worry, be anxious, be fearful, dread, or fret ourselves because of evil doers. We are not to look at wrongdoers and just kind of have envy for them, right. Because of what seems like the easy life for them. Because as the scripture is saying, they're going to fade. They're all going to meet their end. They're going to be expired at one point. And so when we are instructed to trust in the Lord, right? But that is the part that I find comfort in when I read this, In a world where we are under a Kamala Harris regime. And we are fully in a oligarchy totalitarian Marx's world. All I have is to trust in the Lord. All I have is to understand that in his sovereign will God allowed this. And we are here for such a time as this. And it's not for us to wish we can go back. it is for us to remain and be faithful. And that's why I love the other part of this. This verse. Because it says trust in the Lord and then do good. Do good. Love your neighbor. Serve him. Serve God. Humble yourself and submission to an extent to authority, to an extent, because as soon as they call you to break or, or, a law of God or violate your conscience, Due to God's word, then you can't do that. You must resist. But obviously. God has saw fit that we should live through this. And he goes on to tell us. To dwell in the land. And be friend faithfulness. So we are to remain where we are at. God has called us where we are literally sitting or driving, listening to this podcast. He has called us to be here. To be here during these moments. And we are to dwell in the land that he's placed us. And be friend. Faithfulness. That means don't live by lies. serve your neighbor as you would yourself. Love your neighbor. Love God with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength. Be in your churches. do your job. Whatever that looks like. Do that. And then delight yourself in the Lord. Because that is where our real joy comes from. That is where our real peace. Comes from. And all that we desire as long as we are delighted in the Lord. He will give to us. And then he even goes on to say, commit your way to the Lord trust in him. And he will act, he will bring forth righteousness as the light and your justice as the noon day. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him. Fret, not yourself over the one who prospers in his way. Over the man who carries out evil devices. He's saying, Hey, look, I know you recognize what is happening. And if you see like an election stolen, for example, I'm not saying that's what's happening. I don't know the future. I am recording this. on a Thursday night before the election. But say there was like some sort of election interference stealing or something, and it's just plainly obvious. What do we read here? Be still before the Lord wait patiently for him. Fret, not yourself. Over the one who prospers in his way over the man who carries out evil devices. There's a lot of things that we have no control over guys. We don't have control over. But what we do know is that God has told us in his word to just be still trust in him. Dwell in the land befriend faithfulness. And do not worry about these evil doers. That's what's important. So it doesn't matter who wins. I want Donald Trump to win, but even then we still have some real serious things going on. And again, I can't fully trust Donald Trump. I don't know if he'd decided to flip the script a second term, having no idea. I don't think he will, but. I'm also not like that naive either. COVID should have taught us that. So even if Donald Trump wins, we don't know exactly what the next four years is going to look like. All I can tell you, is this. God has given us his word. He's given us his promise. He's given us instruction and he has comforted us. By letting us know that he is with us. And as long as we delight in him, He will give us the desires of our heart. That is a promise that I will hold on to. We have a lot of work. We have dropped the ball. And I think it falls on the church to step up. And proclaim the gospel, speak to truth. And disciple the nations, disciple, the people that are around us. We need to get back to that. Because otherwise we have greater things that are, is going to come our way. And we should count our blessings that we're not like UK. But don't think for one second, it can not happen that way either. When the Lord tells us to dwell in the line and be front faithfulness. That's what that means. We don't lie. We speak the truth. We work hard. And when we teach, preach and share the gospel all the way. So all right. Hope that is helpful. I hope you're encouraged by that. Honestly, guys read. Psalms 37. I mean, you can't go wrong. That is a source of comfort for me during these times. And I hope it's a comfort for you. So make sure that you share this with someone that you think should hear this, especially if they have concerns about. The times that we're living in the election and what that looks like.
