 I spoke with William J. Federer about Resurrection Sunday, more familiarly known as Easter.

If you are familiar with Bill then you know this is good stuff.

Birthright Citizenship and SCOTUS with Prof William Wagner

I had a conversation with Constitutional Professor William Wagner about the Supreme Court hearing on Birthright Citizenship.

This is one of the most cogent of analyses of the subject I've heard.

And easy to understand.

If you have any interest in the subject, this is for you.

Why It's Called Good Friday

 

When they take the Son of God and put Him to death, why is that considered good?

Because when He died that horrific tortured death on Calvary, He took the punishment due us for our rebellion against God.

It was good for us. Was it good for Him?

When He arose from the dead on Easter, He proved that what He said was true. He had been predicting these moments to His followers for a couple years and they did not believe Him.

Until He did it.

The Bible says, "… who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God." (Heb 2:2).

So if Jesus came down from Glory, endured the cross, and went back to Glory, what was His net gain?

Us.
We were the joy set before Him.

We are the bride He travelled to a far land to obtain (like Jacob did, among other examples).
Granted we're not the finished product, yet, but if we cooperate with His plan, He sees something in us He wants to spend eternity with.
I'm good with that. That's good.

I want to share a cool thing with you.
If you're not a Christian, please read anyway, because it never hurts to have a little information about what those whackos around you believe.

A few people know that Psalm 22 is a description of the crucifixion of Jesus that was written hundreds of years before the event.
David saw it in a vision and it shakes him up so much that he starts out with:
My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?
Many Christians have been taught that, as He was crucified, Jesus was crying this out to His Father in heaven, because the Father could not bear to look on Jesus, our scapegoat.
That He was separated from the Father.
That Jesus was accursed (and the Father could not be in fellowship with Jesus because it would violate His holiness) because Jesus was carrying the penalty of the sins of the world.

Give me a break.

<< 1 Corinthians 12:3 >> Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed.

Jesus and the Father had this worked out since before the universe was created, and at the last minute The All-Powerful Ruler of More than the Universe flinches?
No.
If the Father and the Son (who with the Spirit are referred to as the "Godhead" in perfect unity) ever separated, I believe the universe would crumble.

If the Father looked away from His Son in His greatest trial. how could you be sure He would stay with you in yours?

As you read the gospels, particularly John's, you see that the Pharisees (some of them, like Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea, were good guys, by the way) were asking Jesus for a sign that he was the Messiah. He continually answered them that when they saw Him lifted up, that would be their sign.
Here He is, lifted up in front of them. He's surrounded by "strong bulls" (prison slang for guards), and the crowd is taunting Him. It's the scene predicted in Psalm 22 .
Then He quotes the first verse of Psalm 22.

This is called a "Remez". It's a teaching tool Jesus had used for 3 years.

When they hear this verse, they remember the rest of the Psalm.
The Pharisees had asked Jesus for a sign.
He said that they would have it when the Son of Man was lifted up.
(Remember that joke, "Here's your sign."?)
Can you imagine the look on their face when they get it?
This death on this cross by this man was predicted hundreds of years ago.
Here was their sign.
The ramifications are huge.

Do you get it?

William J Federer on Islam

I spoke with (mostly listened to) Bill Federer on the history and tenets of Islam. 
People who have a familiarity with Islam have said that it is a tour de force and an enlightening summation.
You decide:
Your American Heritage: William J Federer on Islam 

Afterwards, Gary Wellings and I with callers discussed the news of the day.

Given what Bill said, "What do we do with Muslims?"

What do we do with Tucker Carlson?

Catching Up

I have been remiss regarding posting it seems.
I am not developing a lot of standalone blog posts as I am preparing for my broadcasts.
I post them here in the off chance someone surfs by and gets interested in listening.
I'm not even sure how often that happens, but nonetheless...

I Spoke with Patrick Colbeck, Rocket Scientist, Former State Senator, Election Denier, Lindell TV Host, friend of mine and Meddling Kid about Election Integrity (which he wrote a book on, The 2020 Coup).

Then I spoke with the author of Spirits Of America: On the Semiquincentennial, founder of The Brownstone Institute and Epoch Times contributor Jeffrey A. Tucker.
We spoke about the effect of the State of the Union speech, the turn in the culture, and the awakening of the electorate.

Next up was Author and Economic Historian Todd Sheets to discuss the effect of the State of the Union and compare the responses of Ronald Reagan to Carter's economy and Trump to Biden's.
Both also faced Iran's threat.

Then again, back to Jeffrey Tucker about his latest book "Spirits of America: On the Semiquincentennial" which elaborates on the various "spirits" that are the soul of America.

The Spirit of Work, the Spirit of Godliness, etc.
It's a wonderful book.
I've been told it's a great interview.
I recommend both.

And finally, William J. Federer on St, Patrick, The Man Who Saved Western Civilization.

It really is Your American Heritage.
