Lee: THE FORGOTTEN
VICTIMS OF THE ARAB SPRING.
ETS THE WEAKEST AND THE
MOST VULNERABLE THAT SUFFER
THE MOST.
Lee: PLUS, THE MIRACLE
THAT GOT THIS KID BACK ON
HIS FEET.
I KNEW THAT GOD CARED
ABOUT ME AND HE WANTED TO
PROTECT ME.
Lee: AND THEN WE'LL
SHOW YOU HOW TO DECK THE
HALLS THE SOUTHERN LIVING
WAY, ON TODAY'S "700 CLUB."
Pat: WELL, WELCOME,
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, TO
THIS EDITION OF "THE 700
CLUB."
THE PRESIDENT SAID HE WAS A
MODERATE, THE PRESIDENT OF
THE UNITED STATES, BUT THE
EGYPTIAN PEOPLE, THE
NEWSPAPERS, THE SCHOLARS,
AND MANY PEOPLE ON THE
STREET, ARE SAYING HE IS
WORSE THAN THE PHARAOHS.
HE IS A DICTATOR, HE IS
TRYING TO TAKE ABSOLUTE
POWER, AND THEY'RE OUT IN
THE STREETS PROTESTING IN TA
HIR SQUARE IN CAIRO.
Terry: THE EGYPTIANS
ARE WORRIED ABOUT THE
GROWING POWER OF ISLAMISTS
IN THE GROWING COUNTRY, AND
WHAT THEY COULD DO TO OUR
COUNTRY.
Reporter: EGYPT TODAY
IS DIVIDED AND IN CRISIS.
TO PROTEST MORSI'S DECREES,
SOME OF THE NEWSPAPERS RAN
FRONT-PAGE HEADLINES THAT
SAID NO TO DICTATORSHIP.
WE TOOK THE POSITION OF
DISSPENDING THE PRINT OF THE
NEWSPAPER TOMORROW AS
OBJECTIONS TO THE ARTICLES
IN THE CONSTITUTION THAT
LIMIT FREEDOM OF SPEECH.
Reporter: LAST WEEK,
MORSI RUSHED THROUGH A DRAFT
CONSTITUTION, WRITTEN MOSTLY
BY ISLAMISTS.
MANY CHRISTIANS BOYCOTTED
THE CONSTITUTION.
IT GIVES MUSLIMS
UNPRECEDENTED POWER TO
IMPLEMENT SHARI'A LAW.
AND MORSI GAVE HIMSELF
SWEEPING NEW POWERS AND
IMMUNITY FROM JUDICIAL
REVIEW.
THAT LED TO A CRISIS WITH
EGYPT'S JUDGES, WHO WENT ON
STRIKE.
FOR THE JUDICIARY TO
SUSPEND ITS DAILY WORK IS A
BITTER, STRONG, AND CLEAR
MESSAGE.
WE HAVE NEVER SEEN
MEMBERS OF THE
CONSTITUTIONAL CODE BE
BANNED FROM ENTERING THE
CODE TO PROCEED WITH
SESSIONS AND TO VIEW CASES.
THAT PRESENTS A HUGE
PROBLEM.
IN OTHER WORDS, THAT A
PUBLIC OF EGYPT HAS BEEN
RAPED BY THE MUSLIM
BROTHERHOOD.
Reporter: MORSI'S
ACTIONS HAVE LED MANY
EGYPTIANS TO WONDER IF THEY
TRADED ONE DICTATOR FOR
ANOTHER.
WITHIN SIX MONTHS FROM
THE DAY MORSI WAS SWORN IN,
HE TOOK ALL OF THE POSSIBLE
POWERS OF THE COUNTRY INTO
HIS HANDS.
Reporter: FORMER
ISRAELI AMBASSADOR TO EGYPT
SAYS MORSI AND THE MUSLIM
BROTHERHOOD HAVE REUNITED
THOSE WHO FEEL THE
REVOLUTION THAS BEEN
HIJACKED.
THEY MADE A RESOLUTION,
AND SACRIFICED THEMSELVES,
AND NOW IN EUROPE AND THE
DICTATORSHIP, THEY KEEP
THEM.
Reporter: HE WARNS THIS
DIVISION IN EGYPT COULD LEAD
TO VIOLENCE.
HE IS ALSO BAFFLED AT THE
RELATIVE SILENCE OF THE
U.S.
THE LAST TWO OR THREE
COMMUNICATIONS THEY
PUBLISHED FROM THE WHITE
HOUSE AND THE POPULAR
STATES, WAS THAT THEY ARE
GIVING SUPPORT TO THE MUSLIM
BROTHERS.
Reporter: THE U.S. AND
THE REGION COULD BE DEALING
WITH THIS PROBLEM FOR A LONG
TIME.
MASEL'S ADVICE?
WE SHOULD PRAY THAT IT
WILL FINISH IN A WAY THAT
DEMOCRACY WILL PREVAIL.
Reporter: IN
THE
MEANTIME, THE FUTURE OF
EGYPT HANGS IN THE BALANCE.
CHRIS MITCHELL, CBN NEWS,
JERUSALEM.
Pat: THANKS, CHRIS.
WE HAVE BEEN WARNING ON THIS
PROGRAM ABOUT THE DANGERS OF
THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD.
THEY TRIED TO ASSASSINATE
ONE OF THEIR PRIME
MINISTERS, PRESIDENT NASSAR,
AND HE LASHED BACK, AND, YOU
KNOW, WENT AFTER THEM.
SAME THING WITH HAZ HAFA.
HE WENT AFTER THE
BROTHERHOOD, AND HE REALIZED
THE DANGERS.
BUT THE UNITED STATES JUST
BLINDLY EMBRACES THEM, OH,
THIS IS A MODERATE GROUP AND
WE NEED TO HAVE THEIR
ADVICE.
AND THEY COME INTO THE
COUNCILS IN THE WHITE HOUSE
TO ADVICE ON OUR POLICY.
THEY WANT A CALAFATE, THEY
WANT TO RETURN TO SHARI'A
LAW.
THEY WANT TO BLOT OUT THE
LAWS GOVERNING WOMEN.
THE REASON THEY HAD A
SECTION IN THROUGH
CONSTITUTION HAVING TO DO
WITH SEX TRAFFICKING, AND
THE ISLAMISTS DIDN'T WANT
THAT BECAUSE THEY WANTED
CHILD BRIDES.
SO THEY DIDN'T WANT TO BE
RESTRICTED FROM DOING THAT.
IT'S A TERRIBLE THING.
AND, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,
WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT
THE UNITED STATES NEEDS TO
TAKE A STAND.
BUT WE'VE GOT A PRESIDENT
AND THE SECRETARY OF STATE
WHO DON'T WANT TO TAKE A
STAND, AS THEY SHOULD,
AGAINST AN OBVIOUS EVIL.
IF THAT ISN'T BAD ENOUGH,
THE UNITED STATES MAY SOON
GET INVOLVED IN ANOTHER
CRIES IN THE MIDDLE EAST.
LEE WEBB HAS THAT STORY.
Lee: PAT, THE WHITE
HOUSE AND ITS ALLIES ARE
CONSIDERING MILITARY OPTIONS
AGAINST SYRIA, IF IT USES
CHEMICAL WEAPONS AGAINST ITS
OWN PEOPLE.
THE U.S. SAYS THAT WOULD BE,
QUOTE,"CROSSING A RED
LINE."
NAT TO IS SAID TO APPROVE
SENDING MISSILES TO TURKEY
TO PROTECT FROM A POSSIBLE
MISSILE ATTACK FROM SYRIA.
SYRIA'S FOREIGN MINISTER
SAYS THE GOVERNMENT WOULD
NOT USE SUCH WEAPONS ON ITS
OWN PEOPLE UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCE.
BUT SECRETARY OF STATE
HILLARY CLINTON SAYS THE
SYRIAN OPPOSITION IS GETTING
STRONGER.
I DON'T KNOW THAT YOU CAN
SAY THAT FOR THE ENTIRE
COUNTRY IT IS YET AT A
TIPPING POINT.
BUT IT CERTAINLY SEEMS THAT
THE REGIME WILL BE MUCH
HARDER PRESSED IN THE NEXT
MONTHS.
Lee: WHITE HOUSE
SPOKESMAN JAY CARNE WARNED
BASHAR al-ASSAD,
QUOTE,"THE WORLD IS
WATCHING, AND THAT HE WILL
BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR HIS
ACTIONS."
PAT?
Pat: WHAT A JOKE.
HE IS GOING TO BE HELD
ACCOUNTABLE?
WHO IS GOING TO HOLD HIM
ACCOUNTABLE AND UNDER WHAT
TERMS?
THAT'S NONSENSE.
IN ORDER FOR THE UNITED
STATES TO GET IN THERE AND
DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE
MISSILES WILL PROBABLY TAKE
85,000 TROOPS ON THE
GROUND.
THE SYRIAN MILITARY IS
WELL-ARMED AND SO FAR LOYAL
TO THE PRESIDENT.
FOR THE UNITED STATES TO
COME IN AND TRY TO DO
ANYTHING, IT WOULD BE
RIDICULOUS.
WE CAN'T DO IT.
AT THE SAME TIME, WE WERE ON
THE HORNS OF A DILEMMA.
WE DIDN'T WANT TO BACK THOSE
REBELS BECAUSE NOBODY KNEW
EXACTLY WHO THEY WERE.
THERE ARE SERIOUS SUSPICIONS
THEY MAY BE PART OF
AL-QAEDA.
WE'RE BEING FACED WITH A
NUMBER OF CHALLENGES.
THE MAJOR ONE, PROBABLY, IN
AMERICA HAS TO DO WITH THE
NEGOTIATIONS ON THIS
SO-CALLED FISCAL CLIFF.
WE CAN'T SEEM TO HAVE
LEADERS WHO WANT TO PUT
AMERICA FIRST.
ALL THEY DO IS PUT THEIR OWN
POLITICAL IDEOLOGY FIRST.
AND THERE SEEMS TO BE, AT
LEAST AS FAR AS THE WHITE
HOUSE GOES, NO POSSIBILITY
OF COMPRISE.
AND YOU THINK OF SOME OF THE
HORRIBLE THINGS WE'RE
SPENDING MONEY ON, BUT WE
CANNOT, AS A NATION, TAKE
OUR LEADERSHIP ROLE IN THE
WORLD IF WE DON'T HAVE THE
MONEY TO DO IT.
IF WE'RE OUT OF MONEY, THAT
MEANS WE'RE OUT OF POWER.
AND THAT'S NOT A GOOD
SITUATION.
LEE?
Lee: THE WHITE HOUSE
QUICKLY REJECTED A
REPUBLICAN PROPOSAL ON THE
FISCAL CLIFF STANDOFF.
THE 10-YEAR, $2.2 TRILLION
PROPOSAL IS SIMILAR TO WHAT
HOUSE SPEAKER JOHN BOEHNER
SUPPORTED LAST YEAR.
BUT DEMOCRATS WANT MORE
TAXES AND FEWER SPENDING
CUTS, AND A WHITE HOUSE
SPOKESMAN IS EVEN
THREATENING A FISCAL FREE
FALL, HEATHER CELLS HAS THAT
STORY.
Reporter: THE NEW
REPUBLICAN OFFER CALLED FOR
RAISING THE ELIGIBILITY AGE
FOR MEDICARE, AND LOWERING
COST OF LIVING HIKES FOR
SOCIAL SECURITY.
IT WOULD ALSO RAISE
$800 BILLION IN HIGHER TEX
REVENUE, AND NOTABLY, IT
DOES NOT RAISE TAX RATES FOR
THE WEALTHY.
THE WHITE HOUSE VIEWS THAT
AS UNACCEPTABLE.
YESTERDAY DURING A PHOTO OP,
THE PRESIDENT REFUSED TO
COMMENT ON THE G.O.P. PLAN.
BUT A SENIOR WHITE HOUSE
OFFICIAL CALLS THE PLAN A
STEP BACKWARDS, SAYING
REPUBLICANS MUST AGREE TO
HIGHER TAX RATES FOR THE
WEALTHY OR THE NATION WILL
BLAME THEM FOR TAKING US
OVER THE FISCAL CLIFF.
AND DEMOCRATS DON'T LIKE THE
G.O.P.'s PROPOSAL TO CUT
MEDICARE AND SOCIAL
SECURITY.
SOME ECONOMISTS BELIEVE
WASHINGTON'S GRIDLOCK IS
HURTING THE ECONOMY, AND
ESTIMATE AT LEAST 200,000
FEWER JOBS HAVE BEEN CREATED
THIS YEAR BECAUSE OF
UNCERTAINTY AROUND THE
FISCAL CLIFF.
WALL STREET SO FAR REMAINS
OPTMISTIC THAT A DEAL WILL
BE STRUCK, BUT TH SO THE
LACK OF PROGRESS HAS NOT LED
TO A MARKET CRUNCH.
A PERSON FROM TEXAS SAYS SHE
GOT ANGRY OVER THE WEEKEND
WATCHING THE TALK SHOWS.
IF I WAS WORKING THE WAY
CONGRESS AND THE PRESIDENT
WERE WORKING, I WOULD
PROBABLY LOOSE MY JOB.
Reporter: PAIGE IS
STARTING A PETITION THAT
WOULD HALT
ALL
PAYCHECKS AND
HEALTH BENEFITS FOR MEMBERS
OF CONGRESS UNLESS THEY
AVOID THE FISCAL CLIFF.
Lee: MEMBERS OF
CONGRESS TECHNICALLY HAVE
UNTIL THE END OF
THE YEAR TO
BROKER A DEAL, BUT HOUSE
MEMBERS ARE SCHEDULED TO
BREAK FOR CHRISTMAS A WEEK
FROM FRIDAY.
SO, PAT, MANY BELIEVE THE
CRISIS MUST BE SETTLED IN
THE NEXT 10 DAYS.
ARE YOU HOLDING OUT MUCH
HOPE FOR A DEAL?
Pat: I'M REALLY NOT,
LEE.
IN ALL SERIOUSNESS, IF OBAMA
IS INSISTING ON RAISING SOME
TAX RATES ON WEALTHY PEOPLE,
I THINK CHUCK SCHUMER, ON
THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE, SAID WE
GO FOR A MILLION DOLLARS A
YEAR.
YOU RAISE THE TAX RATES ON
PEOPLE MAKING OVER A MILLION
DOLLARS A YEAR, AND YOU TAKE
IT UP FIVE POINTS OR
SOMETHING.
IT IS A SYMBOLIC THING.
AND OBAMA WOULD SAY, LOOK, I
WON.
BUT YOU TAKE AWAY FROM HIM
HIS MAJOR WEAPON, AND HE
SAYS WELL THE CONGRESS IS
WANTING TO DEFEND THE
MILLIONAIRES, SO YOU TAKE
THAT AWAY FROM HIM.
AND THEN WHAT HAS HE GOT?
HE THEN HAS GOT TO DEFEND
SPENDING MONEY TO DISCOVER
WHAT THE DRUGS ARE ON
CHINESE PROSTITUTES AND SUCH
NONSENSE.
IT IS INSANE WHAT WE'RE
DOING.
AND, OF COURSE, IT IS COMMON
SENSE TO RAISE THE
ELIGIBILITY AGE OF SOCIAL
SECURITY.
WE DON'T DIE AT 65 ANY
LONGER.
THE EXPECTANCY RATE IS 78.
PEOPLE DON'T DIE, AND THEY
DON'T GET INFIRMED AT AN
EARLIER AGE.
THE AGE LIMITS WHEN
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT WAS IN
OFFICE WERE MUCH, MUCH
DIFFERENT THAN THEY ARE
NOW.
THERE IS NO REASON THAT WE
COULDN'T ALTER THE
ELIGIBILITY RATE FOR SOCIAL
SECURITY AND MEDICARE.
IF PEOPLE WHO WOULD JUST HAD
SOME COMMON BUSINESS SENSE
WOULD COME TOGETHER AND
WOULD SAY, LET'S CUT A DEAL
THAT WOULD MAKE SOME SENSE.
LET'S NOT HURT THE ECONOMY.
LET'S WORK WITH THIS GROUP
AND TAKE AWAY THINGS THAT
DON'T MATTER.
I'LL TELL YOU ONE THING THAT
WOULD LEAD TO SOME HOUSES,
THE MORTGAGE INTEREST
REDUCTION.
THE CANADIANS NOW HAVE A
VERY ROBUST HOUSING BECAUSE
THEY DON'T HAVE A DEDUCTION
FOR MORTGAGE INTEREST.
I DON'T THINK IT IS
SOMETHING WE NEED AS
AMERICANS.
I THINK THAT THE AMERICAN
REAL ESTATE INDUSTRY WILL DO
VERY WELL WITHOUT THAT
PROVISION, AND THAT'S
SOMETHING THAT WOULD SAVE A
GREAT DEAL OF MONEY FOR THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
BUT THE TIME HAS COME THAT
THIS IDEOLOGY KASAM GETS
BRIDGED.
AND THE TROUBLE IS THE
PRESIDENT NOW SAYS I'M GOING
TO HAWAII.
I'M GOING ON VACATION.
IS HE?
IN THE MIDDLE OF ONE OF THE
GREATEST ECONOMIC CRISES THE
COUNTRY HAS FACED IN
DECADES?
HE IS GOING TO SURF AND SWIM
IN HAWAII?
LEE?
Lee: A
LEADING PRO-LIFE
LOBBYIST SAYS SOME PLANNED
PARENTHOOD ORGANIZATIONS ARE
QUILTING THE ORGANIZATION
RATHER THAN BEING FORCED TO
DO ABORTIONS.
Reporter: MARJORIE IS
ONE OF PLANNED PARENTHOOD'S
BIGGEST ENEMIES.
HER ORGANIZATION IS
DEDICATED TO ELECTING MORE
PRO-LIFE WOMEN HERE AND
NATIONWIDE.
SHE HAS BEEN HIGHLIGHTING
THAT SEVERAL AFFILIATES HAVE
QUIT PLANNED PARENTHOOD,
RATHER THAN GO WITH THE
MANDATE THAT ALL OF THE
CLINICS MUST PROVIDE
ABORTIONS BY 2013.
ONE IN IOWA COMPLAINED
ABOUT THIS AND OTHER GOINGS
ON IN THAT CLINIC, AND SHE
WAS IMMEDIATELY BOOTED OUT.
AND NOW SHE IS ACTUALLY
HELPING US IN OUR DEFUND
PLANNED PARENTHOOD.
THEY BOOT PEOPLE OUT AND
BRAG ABOUT IT, AND SAY WE
DID IT, AND SAY YOU JUST
TAKE IT.
Reporter: IT GALLS HER
HOW MUCH TAXPAYERS MONEY
GOES TO THE PLANNED
PARENTHOOD ORGANIZATION.
IT IS AROUND $300,000 A
YEAR.
WE'RE PAYING A MILLION
DOLLARS TO THEM EVERY DAY.
TODAY, TOMORROW, THE NEXT
DAY, WE'RE PAYING THEM A
MILLION DOLLARS TO RUN THE
ORGANIZATION.
Reporter: THE OTHER DAY
SENATOR JOHN MCCAIN
SUGGESTED HE AND OTHER
REPUBLICANS NEED TO SHUT UP
ABOUT ABORTION.
PRESUMABLY BECAUSE HE THINKS
IT IS A LOSING ISSUE.
SHE SAYS THEY FIRST LAUGHED
AND THEN GOT OUTRAGED.
BECAUSE TOP REPUBLICANS
NEVER MENTIONED ABORTION,
MUCH LESS FOUGHT IT.
THERE WAS WAS STRICT AND
SEVERE DISCIPLINE, ONLY TALK
ABOUT JOBS AND THE ECONOMY.
Reporter: SHE SAYS THE
SILENCE ABOUT ABORTION WAS
DEPRESSING.
EVERYONE WHO IS FIGHTING
A CAUSE SAYS SILENCE IS
COMPLICITY.
Reporter: ONE OF THE
MAJOR ELECTION WATCH PARTIES
NOVEMBER 6 WAS CO-SPONSORED
BY
THE S.P.A. LIST.
AS OBAMA WON, THE PARTYING
PARTYING CEASED.
WHEN OBAMA WON, WE
STARTED CRYING.
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
CHILDREN, WHO WE'RE
FIGHTING
FOR THEM.
AND TO SEE
IT ALL COLLAPSE,
OF COURSE YOU'RE GOING TO BE
VERY
SAD.
GUYS ARE MAD, THE GIRLS ARE
CRYING.
Reporter: INSURANCE
ABOUT 2 A.M. THAT NIGHT,
PEOPLE GATHERED, PRAYED, AND
COLLECTIVELY DECIDED THEY
MUST FIGHT ON.
WE'RE GOING TO KEEP ON
GOING, AND WE'RE NOT GOING
TO STOP UNTIL EVERY CHILD IS
SAVED.
Reporter: PAUL STRAND,
CBN NEWS, WASHINGTON.
Lee: PAT, SHE IS WAGING
A COURAGEOUS FIGHT.
GOING BACK TO THE PLANNED
PARENTHOOD CLINICS, THAT IS
ENCOURAGING THAT SOME WANT
TO GET OUT OF THE ABORTION
BUSINESS.
Pat: THEY SHOULD, LEE,
BECAUSE THERE IS A LAWSUIT
UNDER WAY IN CALIFORNIA AND
ALSO ONE IN TEXAS.
YOU DON'T HEAR MUCH ABOUT
THAT.
THE ACLJ IS BRINGING THE
LAWSUIT, AND A COUPLE OF
WHISTLE-BLOWERS AT HIGH
LEVELS IN THE ORGANIZATION
OF PLANNED PARENTHOOD HAVE
REVEALED THAT THE PLANNED
PARENTHOOD HAS TRIPLE BILLED
THE GOVERNMENT FOR
PROCEDURES THEY PERFORMED.
AND THE AMOUNT OF MONEY IS
IN THE TENS AND TENS OF
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS.
FRAUDULENT CLAIMS FOR
PROCEDURES THAT WERE NOT
PERFORMED NOW, LEE, AS I
UNDERSTAND IT, AS MUCH AS
$500 MILLION OF TAXPAYER
MONEY IS BEING GIVEN EVERY
YEAR TO PLANNED PARENTHOOD.
NOW, YOU TALK ABOUT WE DON'T
WANT TO MAKE CUTS.
WELL, WHY CAN'T YOU CUT
THAT.
THAT IS AN UNNECESSARY
EXPENSE.
AND IF THE PRIVATE SECTOR
WANTS TO FUND PLANNED
PARENTHOOD, THEY CAN BE MY
GUEST, BECAUSE THIS IS A
FREE COUNTRY.
BUT AS FAR AS THE TAXPAYERS,
THEY SHOULDN'T BE FORCED TO
PAY FOR THE PRINCIPLE
ABORTION PROVIDER IN
AMERICA.
AND YET THE PRESIDENT
SAID -- AND THIS IS THE
THING WE'VE GOT TO
REMEMBER -- HE IS AN
IDDEOLOG, AND HE BASICALLY
SAID I WILL SHUT THE
GOVERNMENT DOWN RATHER THAN
DEFUND PLANNED PARENTHOOD.
THAT WAS IN THE PREVIOUS
NEGOTIATIONS.
HE SAID, I WILL SHUT THE
GOVERNMENT DOWN.
THE DEMOCRATS SAY, WE CAN'T
GIVE CUTS.
YES, THEY CAN.
THEY CAN CUT $500 MILLION
THERE.
AND THEY CAN ALSO STOP
GIVING MONEY TO FIND OUT THE
EFFECT OF DRUGS ON CHINESE
PROSTITUTES.
THIS IS THE KIND OF STUFF
THAT GOES ON.
THE WASTE IS APPALLING.
WHY SHOULD YOU AND I GIVE
OUR TAX MONEY TO FUND ALL OF
THAT FOOLISHNESS, BUT WE'RE
DOING IT.
AND IT IS TIME THE AMERICAN
PEOPLE SAY NO.
I THINK THE PRESIDENT NEEDS
TO HEAR THAT LOUD AND
CLEAR.
Lee: A POWERFUL TYPHOON
SLAMMED INTO THE SOUTHERN
REGION OF THE PHILIPPINES
TODAY, WILLING AT LEAST 40
PEOPLE, AND MORE THAN 50,000
WERE FORCED TO FLEE FROM
FLOODED VI VILLAGES.
TYPHOON BOFA HIT AT DOWN,
TOPPLING TREES, TRIGGERING
LANDSLIDES AND FLOODING
VILLAGES.
THE SOUTHERN PHILIPPINES IS
UNACCUSTOMD TO TW TYPHOONS
LIKE THIS.
FLU SEASON IS OFF TO A
START, AND THE CENTERS FOR
DISEASE CONTROL SAID IT
COULD BE A BAD ONE.
IT IS ALREADYING COMING FROM
FIVE STATES, ALABAMA,
LOUISIANA, AND TEXAS.
THIS IS THE EARLIEST FLEW
SEASON IN A DECADE.
BUT EXPERTS SAY THERE IS
GOOD NEWS.
THIS YEAR'S FLU VACCINE,
WE'RE TOLD, IS A GOOD
MATCH.
THE C.D.C. SAYS MORE THAN A
THIRD OF AMERICANS HAVE
ALREADY BEEN VACCINATED.
THE VACCINATIONS ARE
RECOMMENDED FOR EVERYONE SIX
MONTHS OR OLDER, BECAUSE THE
FEVER, BODY ACHES, AND
CONGESTION ARE NO FUN TO
DEAL WITH.
PAT, JUST DEALING WITH THE
COMMON COLD IS BAD ENOUGH.
Pat: BROTHER, I AIN'T
TAKING ANY FLU SHOTS, AND
MS. TERRY ISN'T TAKING ANY
FLU SHOTS.
Terry: I'M NOT.
Pat: I TAKE A LOT OF
VITAMIN "C," AND I TAKE
OTHER VITAMINS.
Terry: IN THIS
INSTANCE, THEY'RE SAYING
THIS YEAR IS -- THE SHOT IS
COMPARABLE TO WHAT THE FLU
BUG IS.
BUT USUALLY YOU'RE TAKING A
SHOT THAT IS MADE FROM LAST
YEAR'S FLU BUG, SO I DON'T
WANT THAT.
Pat: WELL, I'M NOT --
WELL, ANYHOW, IF YOU WANT TO
TAKE A SHOT, BE MY GUEST.
Terry: THERE ARE LOTS
OF FREE ONES ALL OVER THE
PLACE.
Pat: TERRY AND I ARE
GOING TO OPT OUT.
Terry: YES, WE ARE.
STILL HEY AHEAD, A LITTLE
GUY BUT WITH A BIG PROBLEM.
MY GRANDMOTHER IS A
NURSE, AND SHE SAID IF I
WOULDN'T DO SOMETHING ABOUT
IT, IT WOULD EAT MY TOE OFF
LITERALLY.
I FELT TERRIFIED, PRETTY
MUCH.
Terry: SEE HOW THIS BOY
WAS HEALED WITHOUT GOING TO
THE DOCTOR.
FIRST, THE ORPHANS OF THE
ARAB SPRING.
SEE WHAT IS BEING DONE TO
BRING HOPE AND HELP TO
EGYPT'S SUFFERING CHILDREN.
Pat: WELL, WHILE THE
WORLD FOCUSES ON THE
POLITICAL CHAOS IN EGYPT,
ONE GROUP OF PEOPLE IS STILL
SUFFERING QUIETLY IN THAT
COUNTRY.
AWAY FROM THE SPOTLIGHT OF
THE NEWS.
THEY ARE WIDOWS AND
ORPHANS.
AS GARY LANE REPORTS,
CHRISTIANS FROM AMERICA AND
EGYPT ARE REACHING OUT TO
HELP THESE SUFFERING PEOPLE
FIND HOPE.
THE SITUATION IS, OF
COURSE, GETTING WORSE.
THERE IS A LOT OF
INSECURITY, INSTABILITY THAT
IS HAPPENING IN EGYPT.
Reporter: 25% OF
EGYPTIANS LIVE AT OR BELOW
THE POVERTY LEVEL, EARNING
LESS THAN $2 A DAY.
MANY ARE WIDOWS.
AN ESTIMATED 1.7 MILLION
EGYPTIAN CHILDREN ARE
ORPHANS.
RAMIN ARAD IS THE LEADER OF
A GROUP THAT REACHES OUT TO
THE EGYPTIAN WIDOWS AND
THEIR CHILDREN.
ONCE THE FATHER PASSES
AWAY, YOU HAVE NOTHING.
THE FIRST STEP, OF COURSE,
THE CHILDREN ARE PULLED OUT
OF SCHOOL.
THEY BECOME THEN THE CHILD
LABOR, THEY BECOME THE CHILD
BRIDES, THEY BECOME THOSE
THAT ARE ABUSED, AND THEY
GROW TO PERPETUATE THIS
POVERTY.
Reporter: THE WIDOWS
AND ORPHANS ARE TREATED AS
SOCIAL OUTCASTS.
UNLIKE AMERICAN, EGYPTIANS
HAVE NO UNEMPLOYMENT OR
SOCIAL SECURITY.
31-YEAR-OLD NAMA HUSBAND,
GEORGE, DIED FROM STOMACH
CANCER FOUR YEARS AGO.
SHE AND HER TWO CHILDREN
HAVE STRUGGLED EVER SINCE.
THEY LIVE IN A SMALL,
ONE-ROOM ASSESSMENT NEAR THE
CITY OF LUX OR.
A CHRISTIAN VOLUNTEER
REGULARLY VISITS HER AND HER
CHILDREN.
Reporter: IF THE WIDOWS
AND THEIR CHILDREN ARE TO
HAVE A BRIGHTER FUTURE, THEY
NEED AN EDUCATION.
ANTONIO COULD BARELY READ,
BUT AFTER 15 SESSIONS WITH A
COPTIC CHRISTIAN, HE CAN NOW
READ BIBLE STORIES.
GO AHEAD.
HE STARTED OUT WITH JUST
SENDING MONEY TO THE
CHILDREN.
THEN WE REALIZED, WAIT A
MINUTE, TO REALLY HELP THEM
AND GET THEM ON THEIR FEET,
WE NEED TO FOCUS ON
EDUCATION.
Reporter: A CHRISTIAN
TUTOR HELPED 16-YEAR-OLD
CUROLOS TO GET BETTER GRADES
IN SCHOOL.
HIS FATHER, A TAILER DIED AT
THE AGE OF 38.
TODAY HIS SEWING MACHINE
SITS IDLE.
HIS MOTHER LEARNED SKILLS,
BUT HAD NO MONEY TO GET
STARTED.
CARING CHRISTIANS PROVIDED
HER WITH SEED MONEY TO
OPERATE A SMALL HAIR SALON.
BEFORE I HAD NO SOCIAL
LIFE.
I WAS AFRAID TO GO OUT IN
PUBLIC.
I DIDN'T HAVE MUCH
SELF-ESTEEM.
I TALK TO PEOPLE NOW.
I'M A TOTALLY DIFFERENT
PERSON.
I THANK GOD THIS SALON IS
PROVIDING FOOD AND CLOTHING,
EVERYTHING WE NEED.
AT THE END OF THE DAY, IT IS
THE LORD WHO IS PROVIDING
FOR US.
Reporter: 15-YEAR-OLD
IMAN WAS ONLY THREE YEARS
OLD WHEN HIS FATHER DIED
FROM INTESTINAL BLEEDING.
AMERICAN CHRISTIANS PAID FOR
HIS SCHOOL FEES SO HE CAN
REMAIN IN SCHOOL.
THEY ALSO PAID FOR HIS
MOTHER'S HEART SURGERY.
SHE NOW DOES SOME SMALL
SEWING JOBS TO HELP PROVIDE
FOR HER FAMILY.
THEY LIVE IN SEVERAL ROOMS
IN THIS HOUSE, BUT THE
LANDLORD WANTS THEM TO
LEAD.
IMAN TAKES A VOLUNTEER ON A
TOUR OF THE HOUSE THEY ARE
BUILDING FOR HIS FAMILY.
THE HELP MADE A BIG
DIFFERENCE.
THE CHILDREN WOULD NOT HAVE
BEEN ABLE TO CONTINUE IN
THEIR SCHOOL.
THEY ARE NOW DOING WELL IN
THEIR CLASSES.
I'M SO GRATEFUL TO GOD FOR
THE HELP.
Reporter: HE AND HIS
SIBLINGS NOW HAVE A BRIGHTER
FUTURE BECAUSE OF THE HELP
OF THE CARING AND EGYPTIAN
CHRISTIANS.
UNFORTUNATELY, THE RISE OF
THE ISLAMISTS MAY CAUSE
GREATER PERSECUTION AGAINST
NON-MUSLIMS.
RASAD SAYS MANY CHRISTIANS
ARE READY FOR THE NEXT WAVE
OF PERSECUTION.
MANY OF THE CHRISTIANS
SAID I'M LITERALLY READY TO
DIE FOR CHRIST.
WE WANT TO BE MORE AND MORE
READY TO PREPARE AND SUPPORT
AND MAKE THE CHRISTIANS IN
EGYPT STRONGER AND
STRONGER.
CHRIST GIVES US AN OFFER TO
WORK BESIDE HIM.
TO ME, I THINK IT IS THE
BIGGEST HONOR.
Reporter: GARY LANE,
CBN NEWS, LUXOR, EGYPT.
Pat: YOU SAY TO
YOURSELF AS AN AMERICAN
CHRISTIAN, ARE YOU READY TO
DIE FOR YOUR FAITH?
ARE YOU CALLED UPON TO
SUFFER?
UNFORTUNATELY, THAT HASN'T
HAPPENED IN ANY KIND OF
MEANINGFUL MEASURE HERE IN
AMERICA.
WE'VE BEEN SPARED THESE
THINGS.
BUT THINK OF THESE BROTHERS
AND SISTERS IN CHRIST, THAT
THERE ARE ALL OVER THE
WORLD, WHO ARE SUFFERING
BECAUSE OF MILITANT ISLAM
THAT HAS SET OUT TO KILL
THEM.
AND THEY ARE STANDING TRUE
TO THE LORD.
AND WE PRAY FOR THEM, AND WE
NEED TO CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR
THEM.
THINK OF THEM WHEN YOU'RE IN
YOUR PRAYERS.
TERRY?
Terry: WELL, STILL
AHEAD, ON A LIGHTER NOTE,
DECORATING FOR THE HOLIDAY,
YOUR MAILBOX, YOUR MANTEL,
AND LOTS MORE.
WE'VE GOT SOME WONDERFUL
IDEAS FOR CHRISTMAS DECOR
FROM SOUTHERN LIVING
MAGAZINE.
BEFORE WE GET TO ALL OF
THAT, A 9-YEAR-OLD IS
MIRACULOUSLY HEALED, AND WE
WANT TO SHOW YOU WHAT
HAPPENS.
THEN WE WANT TO PRAY FOR YOU
AND YOUR NEEDS.
ALL OF THAT AFTER THIS.
Terry: JIMMY WAS AFRAID
TO GO TO THE DOCTOR, AND
THAT'S WHY THE 9-YEAR-OLD
HID THE INFECTION THAT WAS
SPREADING ON HIS FOOT FROM
HIS PARENTS.
UNTIL THE DAY HIS MOM
FINALLY SAW IT.
Reporter: WHEN TIMMY'S
FOOT STARTED BOTHERING HIM,
HE DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT.
IT FELT LIKE NOTHING AT
FIRST, BUT THEN IT STARTED
GETTING WORSE AND WORSE.
IT WAS ITCHING AT FIRST, AND
THEN IN, LIKE, A WE'LL BE
RIGHT BACKWEEK, IT STARTED
TO HURT.
I STARTED SCRATCHING IT AND
IT WAS REALLY HURTING BY
THEN.
Reporter: IT WAS A
FUNGAL INFECTION THAT GOT SO
BAD, TIMMY STOPPED GOING
RUNNING WITH HIS MOM,
EMILY.
BUT HE NEVER SAID ANYTHING
TO HIS MOM OR HIS DAD
BECAUSE HE WAS SCARED OF
GOING TO THE DOCTOR.
BECAUSE I THINK
EVERYTHING SOUNDS PAINFUL IN
DOCTOR'S TERMS.
Reporter: THEN ONE DAY,
AS THEY WERE GETTING READY
TO GO OUT, EMILY SAW TIMMY'S
FOOT.
I SAW THREE BAD
INFECTIONS.
SO I KIND OF GOT UPSET AND
REALLY SCARED.
IT WAS PRETTY GRUESOME,
AND SO SHE WAS FREAKING OUT
A LOT.
I DID FREAK OUT.
WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?
I THOUGHT, THAT'S MY BABY
AND THAT'S HIS PERFECT
LITTLE FEET.
SO I DID CRY AND DID GET
UPSET.
WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?
THE SKY IS FALLING.
MY GRANDMOTHER IS A
NURSE, AND SHE THOUGHT IF I
WOULDN'T DO SOMETHING ABOUT
IT, IT WOULD EAT MY TOE OFF,
LITERALLY.
I FELT TERRIFIED, PRETTY
MUCH.
Reporter: THEY STARTED
TREATING THE INFECTION WITH
ANTIFUNGAL OINTMENTS
IMMEDIATELY, AND WANTED TO
SEE RESULTS.
I WANTED TO SEE IT HAPPEN
VERY FAST.
AND EVERY DAY I THOUGHT THIS
ISN'T MOVING ALONG LIKE IT
SHOULD.
WE WEREN'T SEEING ANY
HEALING FROM THAT.
WE WERE PRAYING, TOO.
WHEN ONE OF MY KIDS ARE
ILL OR INJURED, I'M ALWAYS
PRAYING FOR THEM.
Reporter: THEN ONE DAY
SHE WAS WATCHING TV IN THE
KITCHEN.
I WATCH THE "700 CLUB"
EVERY DAY, AND I WAS
WATCHING IT, AND I HEARD
TERRY SAY THERE IS A PARENT
PRAYING FOR YOUR CHILD,
TIMOTHY.
Terry: THERE IS A
PARENT PRAYING FOR A CHILD
NAMED TIMOTHY.
GOD HAS HEARD YOUR PRAYER
AND THE THING YOU ASKED FOR
WILL BE DONE.
IT WAS SUCH A PERSONAL
WORD OF KNOWLEDGE.
I GOT SO EMOTIONAL.
TIMOTHY, COME HERE!
I THOUGHT I WAS IN
TROUBLE, SO I WENT
DOWNSTAIRS.
I WAS YELLING AND
PRAISING GOD, AND I DID YELL
AT TIMOTHY, BUT HE KNEW IT
WASN'T ANYTHING BAD.
Reporter: EMILY PLAYED
THE CLIP AGAIN AND THEY
WATCHED IT TOGETHER.
I THOUGHT IT WOULD GET
HEALED IN A COUPLE OF DAYS
AND I WAS REALLY HAPPY.
BUT IT TURNED OUT IT GOT
HEALED IN A COUPLE OF
HOURS.
I DID SEE A CHANGE RIGHT
AWAY.
I FELT REALLY GOOD
BECAUSE I COULD RUN WITH MOM
ON THE JOGGING TRAILS AND DO
ALL OF THE STUFF I WANTED TO
DO BEFORE.
Reporter: TIMMY HAD
HEARD ABOUT WORDS OF
KNOWLEDGE BEFORE, BUT HE
NEVER REALLY UNDERSTOOD WHAT
THEY WERE OR HOW THEY WORKED
UNTIL THAT DAY.
I KNEW THAT GOD CARED
ABOUT ME, AND HE WANTED TO
PROTECT ME.
AND I THOUGHT HE WAS REALLY
NICE AT THAT TIME.
[LAUGHTER]
Terry: TIMOTHY, YOU GET
IT.
GOD DOES LOVE YOU AND CARE
ABOUT YOU.
AND HE CARES ENOUGH TO LET
YOU KNOW BY NAME.
I HEAR YOUR PRAYER.
AND HE HEARS A MOM'S HEART,
PRAYING FOR HER CHILD.
Pat: WHAT AN AMAZING
LITTLE BOY, SO ARTICULATE.
Terry: LIKE THERE IS A
GROWNUP IN THERE.
Pat: WE HAVE TIME TO
PRAYER.
Terry: THIS IS JOSEPH,
AND HE SUFFERED FROM
SORENESS IN BOTH ARMS.
AT TIMES, HE SAID THE ACHE
ALSO EXTENDED INTO HIS LOWER
BACK.
IF HE TRIED TO PICK UP
SOMETHING AS LIGHT AS A
SMALL SODA BOTTLE, HE
COULDN'T LIFT IT AND HOLD
IT.
UNABLE TO AFFORD A VISIT TO
THE DOCTOR, SO THE PROBLEM
CONTINUED FOR LONGER THAN A
YEAR.
ONE DAY HE WAS WATCHING THIS
PROGRAM AND HE HEARD YOU
SPEAK, PAT.
START MOVING THOSE JOINTS.
AND SO JOSEPH CLAIMED THE
WORD.
HE SAID THE PAIN LEFT, AND
HE IS NOW ABLE TO LIFT
OBJECTS WITHOUT ANY PAIN AT
ALL.
Pat: I DIDN'T KNOW
JOSEPH, AND YOU DIDN'T KNOW
TIMOTHY, BUT GOD KNEW THEM.
KAREN, WHO LIVES IN
BUCKHANNON, WEST VIRGINIA,
BEGAN TO HAVE TROUBLE
BREATHING.
SHE COUGHED A LOT AND HAD
TROUBLE SWALLOWING.
SHE SOUGHT HELP FROM SEVERAL
DOCTORS WITH NO AVAIL.
ONE DAY WATCHING "THE 700
CLUB," SHE HEARD TERRY GIVE
A WORD OF
KNOWLEDGE, QUOTE,"YOU HAVE
SOME KIND OF LUNG CONDITION
THAT DOESN'T ALLOW YOU TO
BREATHE DEEPLY."
AND TERRY HAD ANOTHER WORD
ABOUT SOMEONE HAVING
PROBLEMS WITH EATING.
AS TERRY WAS PRAYING, KAREN
FELT A COOLING SENSE SAYS,
AND FROM THAT MOMENT ON SHE
HAS BEEN ABLE TO BREATHE
WITHOUT ANY BREATHING
PROBLEMS.
FOLKS, GOD IS ABLE.
HE IS ABSOLUTELY ALMIGHTY.
YOU SEE, HE IS ALMIGHTY.
THAT MEANS THERE ISN'T
ANYTHING HE CAN'T DO.
HE CREATED THIS WORLD.
HE CREATED THE UNIVERSE.
HE CREATED EVERYTHING THAT
WE HAVE, FROM THE DAWN OF
HISTORY TO THE DAY THAT WE
LIVE IN.
HE HAS GOT IT ALL UNDER
CONTROL.
NOW, TERRY AND I ARE GOING
TO JOIN TOGETHER.
HERE IS WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS:
"IF TWO OF YOU WILL AGREE ON
EARTH AS TOUCHING ANYTHING
THAT THEY EX ASK, IT WILL
BE DONE FOR THEM BY MY
FATHER, WHO IS IN HEAVEN."
SO AS YOU AGREE ON EARTH,
THE FATHER IN HEAVEN HEARS
AND DOES WHAT YOU ASK FOR.
THAT'S WHAT JESUS SAID.
NOW, WE'RE GOING TO JOIN IN
AGREEMENT, AND WE'RE GOING
TO ASK YOU TO AGREE WITH
US.
WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?
WHAT PROBLEM DO YOU HAVE?
AND WE'RE GOING TO PRAY
TOGETHER.
FATHER, TERRY AND I JOIN IN
AGREEMENT.
YOU SAID IF TWO OF YOU WILL
AGREE -- WE AGREE NOW FOR
THE PEOPLE IN THIS AUDIENCE
WHO ARE SUFFERING.
SOMEBODY ELSE WITH A LUNG
PROBLEM, IT'S A THING THAT
YOU'VE GOT -- THE LORD HAS
HEALED THAT FUNGUS THAT IS
GOING IN YOUR LUNGS.
YOU ARE COMPLETELY HEALED.
YOU'LL FEEL A BURNING IN
YOUR LUNGS AND YOU ARE
HEALED.
IN JESUS' NAME.
A HEART CONDITION HAS BEEN
HEALED BY THE POWER OF GOD.
Terry: THERE IS SOMEONE
ELSE YOU HAVE A VERY SORE
THROAT.
IT IS NOT TONSILS BECAUSE
YOU DON'T EVEN HAVE TONSILS,
BUT YOU HAVE A SWELLING AND
IT'S VERY, VERY PAINFUL.
GOD IS HEALING WHATEVER THAT
IS.
AND SOMEBODY ELSE, YOU HAVE
ESOPHAGEAL PROBLEMS AND YOUR
VERY AFRAID TO GO TO THE
DOCTOR.
GOD IS HEALING THAT
CONDITION AND YOU'RE NOT
GOING TO HAVE IT ANYMORE.
Pat: YOU'VE GOT A
PROBLEM, ACID REFLUX AND SO
FORTH, ALMOST LIKE
PROJECTILE VOMITING, YOU
HAVE BEEN VERY SICK IN YOUR
STOMACH, AND YOU'VE BEEN
SAYING, OH, GOD, WOULD YOU
HELP ME.
PUT YOUR HAND ON YOUR
ABDOMEN, AND IN THE NAME OF
JESUS, BE HEALED.
Terry: SOMEBODY ELSE,
WITH THE ARCHES OF YOUR
FEET, GREAT PROBLEM AND
DISCOMFORT.
GOD IS HEALING THAT FOR YOU,
AND YOU'LL BE ABLE TO WEAR
NORMAL SHOES AND WALK
DISTANCES WITHOUT ANY
PROBLEM.
Pat: YOU HAVE A VIRUS,
THERE ARE NIGHT SWEATS, AND
YOU WAKE UP SOAKING WET
BECAUSE OF THE
PERSPIRATION.
GOD HAS JUST BURNED THAT
VIRUS OUT OF YOUR BODY.
YOU'RE COMPLETELY HEALED IN
THE NAME OF JESUS.
Terry: AND SOMEONE
ELSE, YOU HAVE ARTHRITIS,
AND YOU'RE GOING TO KNOW
THIS IS YOU BECAUSE THIS IS
THE TERM THE DOCTOR USED, IN
YOUR LUMBAR REGION.
AND IT IS SO PAINFUL,
BENDING, STOOPING DOWN, AND
GOD IS HEALING THAT
COMPLETELY.
YOU'RE GOING TO FEEL A
WARMTH IN THAT AREA OF YOUR
BODY, AND IT IS GOING TO BE
AS THOUGH YOU'RE 18 YEARS
OLD AGAIN.
Pat: I BELIEVE THE NAME
IS MICHAEL, YOU'RE PRAYING
FOR $150,000, AND YOU'RE
SAYING, GOD, I'VE GOT TO
HAVE THIS MONEY.
AND THE LORD HAS HEARD YOUR
PRAYER.
YOU'RE GOING TO SEE A
FINANCIAL MIRACLE IN JESUS'
NAME.
AMEN.
Terry: AMEN.
Pat: GOD IS GOOD ALL OF
THE TIME.
IF YOU NEED FURTHER PRAYER,
WE INVITE YOU TO CALL IN.
IT'S A TOLL-FREE NUMBER.
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS JUST
CALL IN, 1-800-759-0700.
WE'RE HERE BECAUSE WE LOVE
YOU AND WE'RE HERE TO HELP
YOU.
TERRY?
Terry: UP NEXT, THEY
ARE PEOPLE LIKE YOU AND ME,
THE VICTIMS OF HURRICANE
SANDY.
ALL OF THESE YEARS I'VE
DONATED TO OTHER PEOPLE, AND
NOW I'M ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE
THAT NEEDS THE DONATION.
Terry: WATCH WHAT IS
BEING DONE TO HELP THE
RESIDENTS OF BREEZY POINT
AFTER -- GET THIS -- FIVE
WEEKS WITHOUT POWER AND
COUNTING.
Lee: WELCOME BACK TO
"THE 700 CLUB."
A CHRISTIAN MISSIONARY TO
PAKISTAN IS IN CRITICAL
CONDITION AFTER BEING SHOT
IN THE CITY OF LAHORE.
REJETTA EMMY IS A DIRECTOR
OF THE FULL GOSPEL
MINISTRIES IN PAKISTAN.
THE GUNMAN SHOT HER IN FRONT
OF HER HOME.
THE SHOOTER ESCAPED, AND NO
ONE HAS CLAIMED
RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE
ATTACK.
EMMY IS IN HER 70s, AND
HAS WORKED IN THE MUSLIM
COMPANY FOR EVERLY YEARS.
A FEDERAL JUDGE HAS ISSUED A
TEMPORARY JUST THAT PREVENTS
COUNCILLORS FROM USE THERAPY
WITH MINORS.
JUDGE WILLIAM SHHUB SAYS IT
OUTWEIGHS THAT THE THERAPY
COULD HARM YOUNG PEOPLE.
HE SAID THE CLAIM IS BASED
ON QUESTIONABLE AND
SCIENTIFICALLY INCOMPLETE
STUDIES.
THE INJUNCTION APPLIES ONLY
TO THREE COUNCILLORS WHO
SOUGHT TO OVERTURN THAT
LAW.
IT WILL REMAIN IN FORCE NOW
UNTIL A TRIAL.
YOU CAN ALWAYS GET THE
LATEST FROM CBN NEWS BY
GOING TO OUR WEBSITE AT
CBNNEWS.COM.
PAT AND TERRY WILL BE BACK
WITH MORE OF "THE 700 CLUB"
AFTER THIS.
Pat: CHRISTMAS, THREE
WEEKS.
Terry: OH, THAT'S TOO
FAST.
Pat: I'M SURE YOU'RE
ALL PREPARED.
YOU HAVE GOTTEN DECORATIONS
UP, YOU'VE DONE ALL OF YOUR
COOKING, AND YOU'RE JUST
GOING TO SIT BACK --
Terry: I DO HAVE A TREE
ON THE DECK IN A PAIL OF
WATER.
Pat: WELL, I'VE GOT ONE
OF THE ARTIFICIAL DEALS THAT
HAS THE LIGHTS ALL SET UP.
YOU PLUG IN THREE SOCKETS.
OKAY.
SHOPPING IS NOT ON THE MINDS
OF MOST OF THE RESIDENTS OF
BREEZY POINT, NEW YORK.
THEY'RE STILL REELING FROM
THE EFFECTS OF HURRICANE
SANDY.
Reporter: FIVE WEEKS
AFTER THE DEVASTATION OF
HURRICANE SANDY, THE FOLKS
OF BREEZY POINT, NEW YORK,
ARE STILL WITHOUT POWER.
RESIDENTS ARE STRUGGLING TO
PUT THEIR LIVES BACK
TOGETHER.
WE'VE WATCHED HURRICANE
KATRINA, AND WE'VE WATCHED
THE TSUNAMI, AND MOST OF US
HAVE WATCHED IT ON CNN OR
READ IT IN NEWSPAPERS.
NOW WE'RE SEEING IT HAPPEN
HERE.
AND IT IS PRETTY
OVERWHELMING.
Reporter:
"OPERATION BLESSING" HAS
BEEN HELPING IN BREEZY POINT
SINCE THE STORM HIT THE
AREA, CLEANING OUT DAMAGED
HOUSES AND GIVING THE
RESIDENTS FOOD AND
SUPPLIES.
WE'RE ALWAYS HERE TO HELP
COMFORT PEOPLE, TO BRING
HOPE, TO LOVE THEM AND PRAY
WITH THEM.
TO KNOW THEY'RE NOT HERE
ALONE, THE RESIDENTS, BUT
WE'RE HERE TO HELP THEM AND
TO LET THEM KNOW THERE IS A
FUTURE AND THAT THEY CAN
REBUILD THEIR LIVES.
Reporter: THROUGHOUT
THE CLEANUP, O.B. VOLUNTEERS
HAVE SERVED AS AN
INSPIRATION TO THE PEOPLE OF
BREEZY POINT.
MANY WERE TRYING TO CLEAN
OUT THEIR HOUSES ALONE.
AND THEN "OPERATION
BLESSING" SHOWED UP, AND I'M
VERY GRATEFUL THAT THEY
DID.
AND IT HAS BEEN A BLESSING.
APPROPRIATELY NAMED BECAUSE
WE JUST COMPLETED A
SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF WORK
IN A RELATIVELY SHORT PERIOD
OF TIME.
THE GENEROSITY OF
EVERYBODY WAS DOING ABOVE
AND BEYOND WHAT WAS
EXPECTED.
THEY HAVE THE FOOD SET
UP, SO WHEN WE WORKED ALL
DAY, WE COULD JUST GO AND
GET FOOD TO EAT BECAUSE
THERE IS NO PLACE TO EAT,
AND THE REFRIGERATORS DON'T
WORK.
Reporter:
"OPERATION BLESSING" HAS
STOOD ARM IN ARM WITH THIS
DEVASTATED COMMUNITY.
AND WITH YOUR HELP, THEY
WILL CONTINUE TO HELP THOSE
IN NEED.
ALL OF THESE YEARS I
DONATED FOR OTHER PEOPLE,
AND NOW I'M ONE OF THOSE
PEOPLE THAT NEEDS THE
DONATION.
I THANK YOU FROM THE BECOME
BOTTOM OF MY HEART.
Pat: LISTEN, "OPERATION
BLESSING" IS STILL WORKING
IN NEW YORK AND STILL NEEDS
HELP.
AND THOSE PEOPLE NEED HELP.
I WAS TALKING TO GARY
LEBLANC, THE HEAD OF MERCY
SHIFTS, WHICH, OF COURSE, IS
AFFILIATED HERE WITH WHAT WE
DO.
AND HE TOLD ME THEY HAD FED
55,000 MEALS.
AND HE SAID THE PEOPLE WERE
SO GRATEFUL.
THEY HADN'T HAD A HOT MEAL
IN SOME OF THOSE AREAS FOR
DAYS ON END.
THEY DON'T HAVE ANY WATER.
Terry: HAVE CAN YOU
HAVE A HOT MEAL, UNLESS
YOU'RE SET UP WITH COOKING
WITH GAS OUTSIDE.
Pat: YOU CAN'T.
IT IS JUST DEVASTATING, AND
THEN SOMEBODY COMES ALONG
AND LOVES YOU, THEY'RE SO
THRILLED.
THE THING THAT TOUCHED ME SO
MUCH, AND BROUGHT TEARS TO
MY EYES, THEY WERE IN A
HOUSING PROJECT, MOSTLY
HISPANIC, AND HE SAID THE
LITTLE KIDS WERE COMING DOWN
AND SAYING, CAN WE GET A
MEAL?
THERE IS A LADY UP ON THE
25th FLOOR, SHE CAN'T COME
DOWN, AND I'D LIKE TO TAKE
HER A MEAL.
THESE LITTLE KIDS WERE
RUNNING MEALS UP AND DOWN TO
THESE PEOPLE.
THERE IS SHARING AND
COMPASSION.
AND IT'S SO IMPORTANT.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, IF WE
SHARE TOGETHER, GOD WILL
BLESS US AND BLESS YOU.
SOMETHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN
HERE.
THIS THING IS GOING OUT.
WE PUT OUT SOME VERY PRETTY
THINGS, BY THE WAY.
THIS IS FOR CHRISTMAS.
WE HAD ONE FOR THANKSGIVING,
AND THIS IS FOR CHRISTMAS.
INSIDE THERE IS A LITTLE
BOOKLET THAT IS A
DEVOTIONAL.
IT HAS ALL OF THESE NICE
DEVOTIONS.
Terry: IT IS REALLY
BEAUTIFUL.
Pat: AND RIGHT HERE IS
MY WIFE'S ORANGE DATE NUT
CAKE THAT HAS BROUGHT RAVES
FROM THOSE WHO HAVE TASTED
IT.
INSIDE IS A LITTLE
BLASPHEMY, IS MAC AND
CHEESE.
Terry: I'M TELLING YOU
YOU'RE GOING TO BE IN A HEAP
OF TROUBLE BECAUSE A LOT OF
PEOPLE LOVE THEM.
Pat: I KNOW.
THE MAC AND CHEESE --
Terry: THERE ARE MAC
AND CHEESE CONNOISSEURS.
Pat: IT IS ALL HERE.
YOU'VE GOT A DEVOTIONAL, AND
MUSIC AND ALL KINDS OF
LOVELY THINGS FOR
CHRISTMAS.
IT IS A LOVELY LITTLE BOOK
AND LITTLE DECORATING TIPS.
YOU'LL GET THAT, AND ALONG
WITH IT, IT WILL BE OUR
REQUEST TO SAY HELP US AT
THIS HOLIDAY SEASON.
WE WANT TO GIVE A LOT OF
PRESENTS.
WE WANT TO GIVE FOOD AND WE
WANT TO HELP PEOPLE
SUFFERING.
AND IF WE CAN BRING SOME
CHEER, SHARE THE BLESSING
THAT IS COMING TO YOU WITH
OTHERS.
AND THE PRINCIPLE THAT I
HAVE TRIED TO APPLY, AND
I'LL DO IT AGAIN, IS YOU
FIGURE WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO
SPEND ON YOUR THANKSGIVING
OR ON YOUR CHRISTMAS DINNER,
WHICHEVER, AND WRITE A CHECK
FOR THAT AMOUNT TO
"OPERATION BLESSING."
Terry: IT MAKES A HUGE
DIFFERENCE.
WE HAVE SUCH AN OPPORTUNITY
TO GET THAT TO THE RIGHT
PEOPLE.
Pat: BELIEVE ME, WE
KNOW WHERE THEY ARE AND WHO
THEY ARE AND HOW TO HELP
THEM AND HOW TO MAKE IT VERY
EFFICIENT.
OKAY.
Terry: COMING UP LATER,
WE'RE GOING TO BRING IT ON.
CLARA WANTS TO KNOW HOW CAN
A PERSON MAKE SURE HE IS
SAVED AND WILL GET TO GO TO
HEAVEN.
WE'RE GOING TO ANSWER
CLARA'S QUESTION AND MORE
WHEN WE BRING IT ON.
FIRST, DECORATING FOR
CHRISTMAS ON A BUDGET.
WHO DOESN'T NEED THAT?
BY USING WHAT IS IN YOUR
VERY OWN BACKYARD.
SEE HOW TO DO IT WHEN WE
COME BACK.
*
Terry: LISTEN, JUST
BECAUSE YOU'RE ON A BUDGET
AND MONEY IS TIGHT, YOU
DON'T HAVE TO SCALE BACK ON
CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED COULD BE
RIGHT IN YOUR OWN BACKYARD.
NOT INSPIRED TO DECK THE
HALLS AND TRIM THE TREE?
KIMBERLY WIBETTMAN, EDITOR
AT LARGE FOR SOUTHERN LIVING
MAGAZINE, HAS IDEAS TO MAKE
YOUR SEASON BRIGHT.
IN CHRISTMAS FOR SOUTHERN
LIVING, KIMBERLY HAS FESTIVE
DECORATING TIPS THAT WILL
HELP ADD SPARKLE TO YOUR
HOME THIS SEASON.
YOU'LL BRING CHRISTMAS CHEER
TO YOUR OUTDOOR DE COR AND
GIVE YOUR GUESTS A MERRY
WELCOME INSIDE.
Terry: PLEASE WELCOME
TO "THE 700 CLUB," SOMEBODY
WHO IS GOING TO HELP US DO
THAT, KIMBERLY WHITMAN.
THANK YOU.
Terry: HAPPY HOLIDAYS.
AND TO YOU.
Terry: IN OUR AREA,
BECAUSE WE'RE IN
WILLIAMSBURG, WE SEE SO MUCH
OF THAT.
LET'S TALK ABOUT THE MANTEL
AND TALK ABOUT WHAT YOU HAVE
DONE HERE.
THE MANTEL IS WHERE
PEOPLE GATHER TOGETHER FOR A
NICE CELEBRATION.
IT IS A NICE PLACE TO REALLY
PUT AN EMPHASIS.
THESE ARE ALL MATERIALS YOU
CAN GET IN YOUR YARD.
IF YOU DON'T HAVE THEM
OUTSIDE, MAYBE THE
SUPERMARKET.
AND WE'VE ADDED MINT JULEP
CUPS, AND EVEN GLASSES,
SOMETHING SMALL THAT WOULD
FIT ON THE MANTEL.
AND WE FILLED THEM WITH
WHITE ROSES.
KIND OF FRESH DURING THE
HOLIDAYS, AND UNEXPECTED.
Terry: I LOVE THE STARK
WHITE WITH THE GREEN AND THE
PINE CONES.
A LITTLE BIT OF DRAMA.
Terry: AND SPEAKING OF
DRAMA, YOU CAN HAVE THAT
OUTSIDE YOUR HOUSE.
YOU'VE DONE IT REALLY WITH
YOUR MAILBOX.
THAT'S RIGHT.
IT IS AN UNEXPECTED PLACE TO
ADD SOME EMBELLISHMENT,
MAYBE A PLACE WE WOULDN'TP?
THINK OF, BUT IT IS A REALLY
NICE PLACE.
THESE ARE, ALL AGAIN,
MATERIALS YOU WOULD FIND IN
YOUR YARD.
MAYBE EXTRA CLIPPINGS OFF
THE BOTTOM OF YOUR CHRISTMAS
TREE.
Terry: THAT'S WHY THEY
ASKED ME IF I WANTED THOSE.
YES.
YOU MIGHT WANT TO PUT THEM
ON YOUR MANTEL.
THERE IS MAGNOLIA LEAVES AND
HOLLY BERRIES --
Terry: MAGNOLIA LEAVES
ARE SO BEAUTIFUL.
IF YOU'RE LIVING IN THE
SOUTH, WOW, YOU'RE MISSING
IT IF YOU DON'T USE THEM IN
SOME WAY.
ABSOLUTELY.
YOU CAN EVEN POLISH THEM
WITH SOME PLEDGE AND THEY
GET SHINY.
Terry: HOW DO YOU
ATTACH THAT SO IT STAYS ON
THE MAILBOX?
IT'S JUST PIPE CLEANERS.
YOU CAN GET THEM THE SAME
COLOR OF YOUR MAILBOX OR YOU
CAN GET GREEN AND RED, AND
WE JUST WOUND IT AROUND.
Terry: LET'S TALK ABOUT
THE TABLE.
I LOVE THE SMELL OF CLOVES
AND CINNAMON.
YOU'VE DONE SOMETHING
AWESOME WITH THIS BEAUTIFUL
DISPLAY OF ORANGES AND
LIMES.
THANK YOU.
IT IS VERY TRADITIONAL
CHRISTMAS DECOR, AND THE
KIDS CAN GET INVOLVED IN
THIS PROJECT.
ALL GENERATIONS CAN ENJOY
THIS.
THEY USED TO DO THIS AGES
AND AGES -- HUNDREDS OF
YEARS AGO, AND THEY WOULD
LET THEM DRY DURING THE
HOLIDAY SEASON AND THROW
THEM IN THE FIREPLACE FOR
THE FRAGRANCE ONCE THEY WERE
DRIED UP.
TRADITIONALLY THEY WERE DONE
WITH ORANGES, BUT AS YOU CAN
SEE, WE TRIED OTHER CITRUS
FRUITS, LIMES, LEMONS.
YOU PICK UP A TOOL TO PIERCE
WITH.
I'LL USE A FORK.
YOU MAKE SOME HOLES IN ANY
PATTERN YOU LIKE.
THE FORKS ARE EASY, IF YOU
WANT TO DO A STRIPE BECAUSE
THEY JUST GO ALL THE WAY
DOWN.
Terry: THAT'S GREAT.
AND THEN YOU TAKE THE
CLOVES --
Terry: AND WE'RE JUST
GOING TO POP THEM IN THERE.
THAT'S RIGHT.
OBVIOUSLY WITH THE LONGER
SIDE DOWN, AND THEY POP
RIGHT IN.
Terry: THESE DO SMELL
WONDERFUL.
DON'T THEY?
IT IS A GREAT THING TO DO IF
YOU'RE GATHERING FRIENDS
TOGETHER OR TRYING TO KEEP
LITTLE HANDS PREOCCUPIED
WHILE YOU'RE COOKING A
HOLIDAY MEAL.
Terry: AND THIS IS A
GREAT CENTER PIECE FOR YOUR
HOME.
IT IS A BEAUTIFUL
CENTERPIECE, AND IF YOU HAVE
CAKE STANDS, YOU CAN PILE
THEM HIGH.
Terry: AND YOU ADDED
GREENERY AND I IT REALLY
SMELLS AWESOME.
AND YOU CAN ROLL IT IN
CINNAMON TO GIVE IT EXTRA
FRAGRANCE.
AND YOU CAN USE A GLUE GUN
AND GLUE SOME RIBBONS ON.
JUST GET PLAYFUL.
Terry: OH, WOW!
SMELLS WONDERFUL.
DO YOU WANT TO GLUE ONE ON
YOURS?
Terry: IS THIS HOT?
I THINK IT IS.
Terry: COME ON, LITTLE
GUY, GET IN THERE.
HERE YOU GO.
Terry: COME ON.
THANK YOU.
THAT WOULD BE GREAT.
THERE WE GO.
THERE WE GO.
AND HERE IS A STAR.
Terry: THAT'S A GREAT
IDEA.
A PRETTY LITTLE
EMBELLISHMENT.
Terry: HAVE FUN.
THIS IS A GREAT ACTIVITY TO
DO SOMETHING WITH THE
FAMILY.
SOMETIMES YOU'RE LOOKING FOR
THOSE SPECIAL THINGS THAT
ALLOW YOU TO DO THAT.
AND SPEAKING OF THAT, HOW
FUN IS THIS?
I AGREE.
Terry: THIS IS AN ALL
PEPPERMINT WREATH AND YOU
DID ATTACH THE BOW.
AND YOU DID THIS WITH A GLUE
GUN AND PEPPERMINT?
YES.
WE TOOK A FOAM WREATH FORM
AND WE SPRAYPAINTED IT RED.
BECAUSE A LITTLE OF IT WILL
SHOW BETWEEN THE
PEPPERMINT.
AND YOU HAVE TO LET IT DRY.
AND IF YOU HAVE LITTLE HANDS
AROUND THAT YOU WANT TO KEEP
BUSY, YOU CAN ASK THE
CHILDREN TO UNWRAP ALL OF
THE PEPPERMINTS FOR YOU.
I CHOSE RED AND WHITE, BUT
THEY HAVE THE GREEN AND
WHITE ONES AND THE GREEN AND
RED ONES.
I LIKE THE RED AND WHITE
BECAUSE IT IS SO FRESH.
IT IS VERY SIMPLE, WE TAKE
THE GL GLUE GUN AGAIN,
HOPEFULLY IT WILL WORK FOR
YOU AGAIN.
YOU JUST PUT A LITTLE BIT OF
GLUE DOWN.
WE'RE JUST GOING TO DO ONE
LAYER OF THE PEPPERMINT.
WE DON'T WANT THEM TO
OVERLAP.
Terry: THERE YOU GO.
AND THAT SHOULD FIT RIGHT
IN THERE.
Terry: THAT IS A REALLY
FUN THING TO DO.
I LOVE THE LOOK OF JUST THE
RED AND WHITE ON IT.
IT'S REALLY GREAT.
I HAVE TO SAY I HAVE A
COLLECTION OF THESE BOOKS
BECAUSE I FIND THEM SO FUN.
YOU'RE GOING TO FIND THESE
CHRISTMAS DECORATING IDEAS,
AND LOTS MERE MORE, IN THE
"2012 CHRISTMAS SOUTHERN
LIVING."
AND WE HAVE THE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR THE THINGS THAT KIMBERLY
AND I HAVE BEEN TALKING
ABOUT, FOR ALL OF THE
DECORATIONS YOU'VE SEEN
ONLINE, AND ALL YOU HAVE TO
DO IS LOG ON TO CBN.COM.
THIS BOOK IS ABSOLUTELY
BEAUTIFULLY ILLUSTRATED WITH
GREAT IDEAS.
THANK YOU.
AND MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU.
Terry: PAT, OVER TO
YOU.
Pat: I'M SURE "SOUTHERN
LIVING," WOULD APPRECIATE
YOUR SUBSCRIPTION TO THEIR
VERY EXCELLENT MAGAZINE,
WHICH MY WIFE HAS HAD FOR
YEARS.
COMING UP NEXT, WE HAVE YOUR
E-MAIL QUESTIONS.
AND VERA WANTS TO KNOW HOW
SOMEONE WHO HAS SOLD HIS
SOUL TO THE DEVIL EVER GETS
DELIVERED OR REDEEMED.
THAT'S AN INTERESTING
QUESTION JUST COMING UP
BEFORE CHRISTMAS.
Terry: WE WANT TO
QUICKLY GET TO THE E-MAIL
QUESTIONS TODAY.
PAT, THIS FIRST ONE IS FROM
CLACLARA, WHO SAYS, "HOW
CAN A PERSON MAKE SURE HE IS
SAVED AND GETS TO GO TO
HEAVEN?"
Pat: IT IS NOT ON
FEELING.
IT IS BASED ON THE BIBLE.
THE BIBLE SAYS IF YOU
BELIEVE ON THE LORD, JESUS
CHRIST, YOU SHALL BE SAVED.
YOU COMMIT YOURSELF TO HIM.
BUT THE HOLY SPIRIT BEARS
WITNESS WITH OUR SPIRIT THAT
WE'RE CHILDREN OF GOD.
THE BIBLE SAYS IF OUR HEARTS
CONDEMN US NOT, THEN WE HAVE
CONFIDENCE BEFORE GOD THAT
WHAT WE ASK FOR WE RECEIVE
OF GOD.
BUT YOU DON'T WANT YOUR
HEART CONDEMNING YOU.
SO IF YOU'RE SINNING ALL OF
THE TIME, YOU SAY, WELL, HOW
CAN I BE SURE?
WELL, STOP SINNING AND START
SERVING THE LORD.
IF YOU HAVE GUILT IN YOUR
HEART, IT WILL TAKE SOME OF
THAT ASSURANCE AWAY FROM
YOU.
WE'RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME.
WE'LL TAKE THAT UP ON
ANOTHER PROGRAM.
Terry: HERE IS A VIEWER
WHO WANTS TO KNOW, CAN
SOMEONE WHO HAS SOLD HIS
SOUL TO THE DEVIL EVER BE
DELIVERED OR REDEEMED?
Pat: THAT'S A FAMOUS
PLAY IN THOUTEST, AND THEN
DANIEL IS ARGUING FOR THE
SOUL OF SOMEBODY -- OF
COURSE IF YOU'VE GIVEN
YOURSELF OVER TO THE DEVIL
YOU CAN BE REDEEMED.
Terry: YOU CAN CHANGE
YOUR MIND.
Pat: YOU CAN CHANGE
YOUR MIND AND SAY I WITHDRAW
THE PROMISE I MADE TO YOU
AND I'M NOW COMMITTED TO
JESUS.
YOU'VE GOT TO TURN TO
JESUS.
YOU TURN AWAY FROM THE ONE
AND YOU TURN OVER TO HIM.
AND OF COURSE YOU CAN BE
SAVED.
THAT'S NOT A PERMANENT
TRANSACTION.
SELLING YOURSELF TO THE
DEVIL.
TOMORROW, OLYMPIC STAR GABBY
DOUGLAS, WHO IS FROM
VIRGINIA BEACH, SHE IS GOING
TO TELL ABOUT THE TEST OF
HER FAITH.
WE LEAVE YOU WITH THESE
WORDS FROM COLOSSIANS: "LET
THE PEACE OF GOD RULE IN
YOUR HEARTS AND BE
THANKFUL."
SEE YOU TOMORROW.
[APPLAUSE]
