Lee: ONE OF THE
GUTSIEST PLAYS IN SUPER
BOWL HISTORY.
HOW IT CHANGED THE COURSE OF
ONE GAME, A CITY, AND THE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN A
FATHER AND SON.
*
Pat: WELCOME, LADIES
AND GENTLEMEN, TO THIS
EDITION OF "THE 700 CLUB."
ALARMING DEVELOPMENTS OUT OF
THE EAST.
NORTH KOREA HAS DE DELT
DETONATED ANOTHER NUCLEAR
EXPLOSION.
THE SOUTH SAYS IT IS ABOUT
HALF THE SIZE THAT BLEW UP
HIROSHIMA.
THEY CLAIM THEIR MISSILES
MIGHT HIT SAN FRANCISCO.
WE'RE LOOKING AT SERIOUS
PROBLEMS IN OUR WORLD WHEN
CRAZIES, LIKE THE NORTH
KOREAN DICTATORSHIP AND THE
IRANIAN DICTATORSHIP ARE IN
POSSESSION OF THESE WEAPONS
OF MASS DESTRUCTION.
AND HOW THE OBAMA
ADMINISTRATION IS GOING TO
HANDLE IT, WE DON'T KNOW.
THEY ISSUE THE USUAL
APPALLING, "WE THINK THIS IS
APPALLING," BUT THEY DON'T
EVEN DO ANYTHING.
THE CHINESE EVEN REBUKED THE
KOREANS OF WHAT THEY HAVE
DONE.
KEEP IT IN MIND WHEN WE TALK
ABOUT THE DOMESTIC POLITICS,
THE INTERNATIONAL SITUATION,
THE POT IS BOILING.
FOR PRESIDENT OBAMA, IT IS
BACK TO JOB ONE TONIGHT.
HE IS GOING TO BE GIVING THE
STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS.
HE IS GOING TO BE TALKING
ABOUT JOBS, THE ECONOMY, AND
GOVERNMENT SPENDING.
TERRY?
Terry: THE PRESIDENT
HAS AN AMBITIOUS AGENDA FOR
AMERICA, AND HE IS TELLING
US HOW HE PLANS TO GET IT
DONE.
JENNIFER WISHON HAS THE
STORY.
Reporter: IN HIS
INAUGURAL ADDRESS, THE
PRESIDENT PAINTED BROAD
STROKES OF HIS VISION FOR
HIS SECOND TERM.
TONIGHT HE IS OFFERING
DETAILS.
HIS MOST URGENT CALL WILL BE
FOR CONGRESS TO AVERT THE
SO-CALLED SEQUESTER, THE
AUTOMATIC DEEP SPENDING CUTS
TO THE MILITARY AND OTHER
PROGRAMS SET TO TAKE EFFECT
IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS.
THE FIRST WEEKS HAVE BEEN
DOMINATED TO REFORM
IMMIGRATION AND REDUCE GUN
VIOLENCE, THE NATIONAL
UNEMPLOYMENT RATE CONTINUES
TO HOVER AROUND 8%.
TONIGHT WHITE HOUSE
OFFICIALS WILL CREATE A PLAN
TO CREATE MORE JOBS.
THE PRESIDENT UNDERSTANDS
WE HAVE WORK TO DO ON THE
ECONOMY.
WE ARE NOT DONE, NOT EVEN
CLOSE.
WE NEED IT TO GROW FASTER
AND TO CREATE MORE
EXPWROBS.
Reporter JOBS.
Reporter: THE PRESIDENT
WILL CALL ON REPUBLICANS TO
RAISE SOME TAXES AND CUT
SOME LOOPHOLES, AND HE IS
EXPECTED TO EXPAND ON HIS
PLAN TO ADDRESS CLIMATE
CHANGE.
INSTEAD OF DOING BATTLE WITH
THE CONGRESS HIMSELF, EXPECT
THE PRESIDENT TO USE HIS
BULLY PIT TO RALLY CONGRESS,
USING A TOOL HE HAS
MASTERED, SOCIAL MEDIA.
President Obama: THERE
WE GO, MY TWEET HAS BEEN
POSTED.
Reporter: 100 PEOPLE
WHO FOLLOW THE PRESIDENT ON
SOCIAL MEDIA HAVE BEEN
INVITED TO THE WHITE HOUSE
TO WATCH THE SPEECH.
MEANWHILE, THE WHITE HOUSE
WILL STREAM A SPECIAL
VERSION OF THE PRESIDENT'S
ADDRESS ON LINE, COMPLETE
WITH GRAPHICS AND SUPPORTING
INFORMATION.
THE PRESIDENT WILL HAVE
TROUBLE PASSING NEARLY EVERY
PIECE OF HIS AGENDA THROUGH
THE DIVIDED CONGRESS.
HOWEVER, THE OBAMA
ADMINISTRATION HAS ALREADY
DEMONSTRATED A WILLINGNESS
TO TAKE EXECUTIVE ACTION
WHENEVER POSSIBLE TO ACHIEVE
ITS GOALS.
JENNIFER WISHON, CBN NEWS,
THE WHITE HOUSE.
Pat: I THINK WE HAVE TO
POINT OUT THAT IT WAS THE
PRESIDENT'S INTRANSIGENCE IN
THE NEGOTIATIONS A YEAR AGO
HAVING TO DO WITH THE BUDGET
THAT LED TO THIS SEQUESTER.
THE REPUBLICANS SAID, OKAY,
WE'LL JUST HOLD YOUR FEET TO
THE FIRE.
YOU SAY YOU WANT TO CUT A
TRILLION DOLLARS IN THE NEXT
10 YEARS IN SPENDING, WELL,
WE'RE GOING TO SEQUESTER THE
MONEY SO IT WILL NOT BE
AVAILABLE FOR YOU TO SPEND.
INSTEAD OF GE GETTING DOWN
WITH THE ADMINISTRATION AND
SAYING, LET'S CUT A LITTLE
HERE AND A LITTLE THERE AND
ADJUST THINGS HERE, HE
REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING.
HE STONEWALLED THEM.
NOW THE SEQUESTER IS UPON
HIM IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS.
DEEP CUTS IN MANY PROGRAMS,
AND HE IS SCREAMING IT WAS
SOME REPUBLICAN PLOT.
WELL, IT JUST ISN'T.
IT WAS CAUSED BY HIM.
AND NOW HE HAS GOT TO
NEGOTIATE AND HE STILL
REFUSES TO DO IT.
HE IS GOING TO GO OUT AND
START MAKING ALL OF THESE IN
INFLAMMATORY SPEECHES.
THIS ISN'T THE DEAL TO GET A
DEAL DONE.
WE'LL HAVE AN INTERVIEW WITH
FLORIDA SENATOR MAR MARCO
RUBIO TOMORROW.
AND LEE WEBB HAS THE SENATE
STORY FROM THE CBN NEWS
ROOM.
Lee: THE SENATE ARMS
COMMITTEE IS GOING AHEAD
WITH A VOTE ON CHUCK HAGEL.
CARL LEVIN HAS REJECTED
REPUBLICAN DEMANDS FOR MORE
INFORMATION FROM HAGEL.
TO REPUBLICANS ON THAT
COMMITTEE, AND LINDSEY
GRAHAM FROM SOUTH CAROLINA,
HAVE THREATENED TO STOP
HAGEL'S NOTION.
SENATE MAJORITY LEADER HARRY
REID WANTS A FULL SENATE
VOTE ON HAGEL WEDNESDAY OR
THURSDAY.
PAT, HOW DO YOU THINK THIS
IS GOING TO TURN OUT?
Pat: I THINK HE IS
GOING TO GET CONFIRMED.
IT MAKES YOU SICK AT YOUR
STOMACH.
THE DEMOCRATS DID NOT
HESITATE TO KNOCK DOWN SOME
OF THE APPOINTMENTS THAT
GEORGE BUSH MADE.
YOU SAY THE PRESIDENT HAS
THE PRIVILEGE OF PUTTING IN
HE WANTS -- THAT'S TRUE.
BUT HE HAS THE ADVICE OF THE
SENATE.
WE'RE ACTING LIKE THAT
DOESN'T APPLY IF THE SENATE
HAS SOME BOYS.
BUT HAGEL IS NOT QUALIFIED.
NOT ONLY BY HIS VIEWS, BUT
WE'RE GOING INTO AN
EXTRAORDINARILY DANGEROUS
PERIOD IN OUR WORLD.
WE HAVE TWO ROGUE STATES
THAT ARE ALMOST IN THE
POSSESSION OF NUCLEAR
DEVICES.
WE HAVE HOT SPOTS IN
AFGHANISTAN AND SYRIA AND
LATIN-AMERICA, ETC.
THEY'RE ALL OVER THE WORLD.
AND WHAT IS THIS MAN GOING
TO DO?
HE DOESN'T HAVE THE
TRAINING, THE EXPERIENCE TO
RUN A MAJOR ORGANIZATION.
I JUST ASK YOU, WHAT
CORPORATION IN AMERICA WOULD
VOTE A C.E.O. IN WITH NO
BUSINESS EXPERIENCE?
WHO WOULD DO IT?
WELL, YOU SAY NOBODY WOULD
DO IT.
IT WOULD BE CRAZY.
WELL, WE'RE GETTING READY TO
DO IT IN THE UNITED STATES.
Lee: PRESIDENT OBAMA
CALLS NORTH KOREA'S THIRD
NUCLEAR TEST HIGHLY
PROVOCATIVE.
THE WHITE HOUSE RELEASED A
STATEMENT AFTER THEY
DETONATED A NUCLEAR DEVICE
UNDERGROUND.
THEY ESTIMATED THAT THE
EXPLOSION WAS 6 TO 7
KILLITONS, ABOUT HALF AS
POWERFUL AT THE ATOMIC BOMB
THE U.S. DROPPED ON
HIROSHIMA IN 1945.
IT COULD MEAN THE REGIME IS
CLOSER TO BUILDING A NUCLEAR
BOMB SMALL ENOUGH TO BE
FITTED ON A MISSILE THAT
COULD REACH THE U.S.
THE ACTION DEFIES THE U.S.
POLICY TO SHUT DOWN NUCLEAR
FACILITIES.
PRESIDENT OBAMA SAYS IT
UNDERMINES REGIONAL
FACILITY.
NORTH KOREA SAYS IT WAS
MERELY ITS FIRST RESPONSE TO
WHAT IT CALLS U.S. THREATS.
IT COMES A DAY AFTER ISRAELI
PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN
NETANYAHU WARNED THAT IRAN
MAY BE GETTING CLOSER TO
BUILDING A NUCLEAR BOMB.
HE SAYS IRAN IS INSTALLING
NEW SENTRIFUGES THAT COULD
CUT BY A THIRD THE TIME IT
TAKES.
Pat: I LEARNED THAT
KOREA TOTAL GROSS DOMESTIC
PRODUCT WAS IN EXCESS OF
$30 BILLION, WHICH IS
NOTHING, AND THEY WERE
SPENDING AT LEAST ONE-THIRD
OF THEIR TOTAL BUDGET ON
MILITARY.
NOW, WHO ARE THEY TRYING TO
DEFEND AGAINST?
WHO ARE THEY TRYING TO
FIGHT?
THE SOUTH DOESN'T HAVE ANY
DESIGNS ON INVADING NORTH
KOREA.
SO WHO IS THERE ENEMY?
THE UNITED STATES CERTAINLY
DOESN'T WANT TO FOOL WITH
THEM.
BUT THEY'RE BUILDING A
NUCLEAR DEVICE.
AND THIS THING COULD
INCINERATE SAN FRANCISCO.
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT A ROCKET
THAT THEY'RE BUILDING THAT
COULD HAVE THE POTENTIAL OF
HITTING THE UNITED STATES,
AND THEY'RE MAKING A SMALL
NUKE.
AND IT WOULD GO ON THE WAR
HEAD.
IT'S JUST FRIGHTENING TO
THINK WHAT KIND OF BLACKMAIL
THEY WOULD USE OVER THE
UNITED STATES AND OVER THE
OTHER NATIONS, AND
ESPECIALLY SOUTH KOREA.
WHAT WOULD THEY DO?
WHAT WOULD SOUTH KOREA DO IF
THE NORTH SAID, WELL, WE'RE
GOING TO NUKE SEOUL?
WE WILL NUKE PUSON?
WHAT WOULD WE DO ABOUT
THAT?
AND HOW WOULD WE HANDLE THIS
SITUATION?
WOULD WE GO ON A MILITARY
STRIKE AGAINST THEM.
APPARENTLY WE HAVE EVERY
SANCTION IN THE WORLD AND IT
HAS NO IMPACT WHATSOEVER.
AS LONG AS CHINA CONTINUES
TO LEAVE THE DOOR OPEN TO
HAVE TRADE WITH NORTH
KOREA.
SO UNLESS CHINA WILL SHUT
THEM DOWN, THE SANCTIONS ARE
NOT WORKING.
I WAS IN KOREA, I WAS WITH
THE MARINES DURING THE
KOREAN WAR.
IT IS NOT A VERY HOSPITABLE
COUNTRY, BUT WE DIDN'T DO IT
RIGHT.
WE ARE SUFFERING THE COSTS
OF A FLAWED POLITICAL
POLICY, LED PARTLY BY THE
STATE DEPARTMENT OF THE
UNITED STATES.
ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES.
LEE?
Lee: LET THE GUESSING
GAME BEGIN.
VATICAN-WATCHERS ARE TRYING
TO FIGURE OUT WHO WILL
SUCCEED POPE BENEDICT XVI.
HE SURPRISED JUST ABOUT
EVERYONE WITH THE
ANNOUNCEMENT HE IS STEPPING
DOWN AT THE END OF THE
MONTH.
MANY CATHOLICS WANT TO SEE A
YOUNGER FACE AND ONE FROM A
DIFFERENT PART OF THE
WORLD.
Reporter: THE VATICAN
WILL HOLD A CONCLAVE BEFORE
EASTER TO ELECT A NEW POPE.
ABOUT 115 CARDINALS WILL
VOTE TO DECIDE WHO WILL LEAD
THE WORLD'S 1 BILLION ROMAN
CATHOLICS.
THE CARDINALS ARE GOING
TO HAVE TO WEIGH EXPERIENCE
AND THE NEED FOR A CERTAIN
LEVEL OF ENERGY.
ANCHELLO SCOLA, AND MARK
Q UELLETEARE U ET ARE UP
FOR SUCCESS SESSION.
AND LONG SHOTS ARE TIMOTHY
DOLAN OF NEW YORK.
HE IS POPULAR AND SUPPORTS
THE POPE'S CONSERVATIVE
STANCE.
SEVERAL NAMES ARE SURFACING
FROM ASIA, AFRICA, AND
LATIN-AMERICA, INCLUDING
CARDINAL LEONARDO SANTA.
IT IS THE FIRST TIME IN
CENTURIES THAT THE CARDINALS
WILL CONSIDER A POPE WHILE
THE PRESENT ONE IS STILL
ALIVE.
POPE BENEDICT XVI HAS SLOWED
DOWN CONSIDERABLY IN RECENT
YEARS.
HE HAS CERTAINLY SLOWED
DOWN A BIT.
YOU CAN TELL HE HAD TROUBLE
NEGOTIATING STEPS.
HE STARTED USING THE CANE
SEVERAL MONTHS AGO.
Reporter: IN HIS
ANNOUNCEMENT, THE POPE SAID,
QUOTE,"I HAVE HAD TO
RECOGNIZE MY INCAPACITY TO
ADEQUATELY FULFILL THE
MINISTRY ENTRUSTED TO ME."
MARK MARTIN, CBN NEWS.
Lee: IT WOULD BE A HUGE
MOVE IF THEY DECIDED TO GO
WITH A BISHOP FOR GHANA.
Pat: IT WOULD BE
REMARKABLE.
BUT I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED
IF THEY DID IT.
THEY USUALLY GO WITH SOME
OLD ITALIAN.
POPE JOHN PAUL II WAS
ITALIAN, AND POPE BENEDICT
XVI WAS GERMAN.
THIS POPE IS A WONDERFUL
SCHOLAR AND TEACHER, AND I
THINK HE HAS BLESSED THE
CHURCH AND BLESSED
CHRISTIANITY.
HIS PREDECESSOR WAS DEEPLY
LOVED.
I HAD A CHANCE TO MEET WITH
HIM IN NEW YORK.
HE IS JUST A MARVELOUS MAN.
BUT THEY ALMOST KILLED HIM.
IT IS UNBELIEVABLE THE
SCHEDULE THEY HAD THAT POOR
MAN ON.
HE WORKED AND WORKED AND
WORKED NIGHT AND DAY, AND HE
WAS JUST EXHAUSTED.
YOU COULD SEE AT THE END OF
HIS LIFE HE WAS JUST TOTALLY
OUT OF IT.
WHAT THEY -- THE STRAINS OF
THAT OFFICE, IT IS
ENORMOUS.
EVERY DAY YOU HAVE GOT
MEETINGS WITH PEOPLE AND
HANDSHAKING, AND YOU GO OUT
AND HAVE ALL OF THESE HUGE
PUBLIC AFFAIRS, YOU HAVE TO
MAKE SPEECHES AND MINISTRIES
AND SERMONS.
I ADMIRE THIS POPE FOR
SAYING, LOOK, MY BODY AND MY
MIND WON'T STAND IT ANY
LONGER.
I'M TOO OLD AND I'M TOO
TIRED, AND I'VE GOT TO
RETIRE.
GOD BLESS HIM.
PRAY THE CARDINALS WILL HAVE
THE WISDOM OF THE LORD IN
THE NEXT ELECTION.
Lee: PAT, THE MEDICAL
EXAMINER AND POLICE ARE
INVESTIGATING THE DEATH OF A
PREGNANT WOMAN IN MARYLAND.
IT IS BELIEVED SHE WAS
UNDERGOING A LATE ABORTION
AT 33 WEEKS.
SIDEWALK COUNSELLORS SAY
THEY SPOKE WITH THE WOMAN
SEVERAL TIMES LAST WEEK AS
SHE VISITED AN ABORTION
CLINIC.
PRO-LIFE GROUPS IN MARYLAND
ARE ASKING THE STATE BOARD
OF PHYSICIANS TO REVOKE THE
LICENSE OF HER DOCTOR, AND
THEY'RE ASKING THE STATE TO
REVOKE HER CLINIC'S
LICENSE.
FIVE STATES PROHIBIT IT IN
THE THIRD TRIMESTER.
HEAVY FIGHTING BROKE OUT
THIS WEEKEND IN MALI BETWEEN
GOVERNMENT TROOPS AND
ISLAMIC REBELS.
THAT MEANS THOUSANDS OF
MALIANS DISPLACED BY WAR
WILL REMAIN HOMELESS A WHILE
LONGER.
BUT CBN'S "OPERATION
BLESSING" IS THERE, BRINGING
THEM HELP IN THEIR TIME OF
CRISIS.
GARY LANE HAS THAT STORY
FROM MALI'S CAPITAL.
Reporter: AMINA WAS
PLANNING TO RETURN HOME TO
GOA.
HER HOPES ARE NOW DASHED
BECAUSE ISLAMIC MILITANTS
ARE BACK, FIGHTING MALIAN
TROOPS THERE.
SHE IS A CHRISTIAN WHO FLED
GOA THE ISLAMISTS ARRIVED.
SHE TOLD US, THEY SAID THEY
HAD DEFEATED JESUS, BUT THAT
IS A LIE.
SHE AND OTHERS HAVE FOUND
REFUGE IN THE CAPITAL CITY
OF GOSHU.
EACH OF THEM HAVE STORIES OF
TRAGEDY TO TELL.
VERY SAD STORIES, AND
THEY'RE IN GREAT NEED,
ESPECIALLY FOR FOOD AND
OTHER SUPPLIES.
WORKERS WITH "OPERATION
BLESSING" ARE NOW ON THE
GROUND IN MALI.
PROVIDING THESE REFUGEES
BEANS AND RICE.
WHILE THEY FOUND SHELTER AT
SOME LOCAL CHURCHES, THEYñ
STILL NEED NUTRITIOUS
MEALS.
MORE THAN A QUARTER OF A
MILLION MALIANS ARE
INTERNALLY DISPLACED, AND
THOUSANDS MORE ARE REFUGEES
IN NEIGHBORING COUNTRIES.
ABRAHAM SESSIS SAYS ISLAMIC
MILITANTS WOULD HAVE KILLED
HIM IF HE HADN'T LEFT
TIMBUKTU.
HE IS THANK YOU FOR CBN AND
CARING AMERICA'S.
I AM GRATEFUL.
WE REALLY APPRECIATE IT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH,
"OPERATION BLESSING."
AND MAY GOD BLESS YOU.
Lee: SO AS THE STRUGGLE
TO LIBERATE MALI OF ARMED
MILITANTS, CBN AND OTHER
CHRISTIANS ARE HELPING THOSE
WHO HAVE FLED THE FIGHTING,
DEMONSTRATING THE LOVE OF
CHRIST TO MALIANS, LIKE
LITTLE SARAH HERE, WHO WON'T
BE RETURNING HOME ANY TIME
SOON.
GARY LANE, CBN NEWS, PAMAKO,
MALI.
Lee: YOU MENTIONED
EARLIER THE DANGERS THAT OUR
WORLD FACES WITH NORTH KOREA
AND IRAN, BUT THE NORTHERN
HALF OF THE CONTINENT OF
AFRICA POSSESS A GREAT
THREAT AS WELL.
Pat: IT IS IT LACK
ISLAM AND ITS LAW.
EVERY TIME YOU LOOK UP,
THESE ARE ANGRY PEOPLE.
IT IS ALMOST LIKE IT IS
DEMONIC TO KILL AND MAIM AND
DESTROY AND TO BLOW
THEMSELVES UP.
IT IS A RELIGION OF
CAYSIOS.
CAYCAY -- CHAOS.
I HARDLY THINK TO CALL IT A
RELIGION.
IT IS AN ECONOMIC AND
POLITICAL SYSTEM WITH A
RELIGIOUS VENEER.
WHAT THESE PEOPLE ARE DOING
IS SAYING WE'RE ISLAMIC
MILITANTS.
AND WHAT ARE THEY TRYING TO
DO?
THEY'RE TRYING TO KILL OTHER
PEOPLE.
WHY ARE THEY KILLING THEM?
BECAUSE THEY DON'T AGREE
WITH THEM.
IT IS VICIOUS, AND THE
SUFFERING IS ENORMOUS.
AND THE CONSEQUENCES OF WAR
ARE HORRIBLE.
WAR IS A TERRIBLE THING.
IT DESTROYS THE STRUCTURES
OF SOCIETY, KILLS AND MAIMS
AND DAMAGES THE LIVES OF
COUNTLESS THOUSANDS OF
PEOPLE.
LEAVES SUFFERING AND
HEARTACHE IN ITS WAKE.
THAT'S WHAT WE'RE SEEING
THERE IN MALI.
WE APPRECIATE THE FRENCH
COMING IN AS THEY DID.
THEY WERE VERY BOLD IN THIS
REGARD, TO COME IN AND TRY
TO BRING ORDER AND TO GET
RID OF THOSE MILITANTS WHO
WERE CAUSING SO MUCH
TROUBLE.
AND I'M GLAD THAT "OPERATION
BLESSING" CAN DO SOMETHING
TO HELP THE POOR AND THE
SUFFERING.
SO IF YOU WANT TO
PARTICIPATE, AND THERE IS A
GREAT DEAL OF NEED, YOU CAN
CALL 1-800-759-0700.
OR YOU CAN LOG ON TO
CBN.COM.
THIS IS THE DISASTER RELIEF
EFFORT OF "OPERATION
BLESSING," AND THIS IS JUST
ONE OF THE WAYS THAT WE'RE
HELPING PEOPLE ALL OVER THE
WORLD WHO ARE SUFFERING AND
IN NEED.
TERRY?
Terry: WELL, UP NEXT,
BIBLICAL PROPHECY COMING TO
PASS IN ISRAEL.
PROPHETS PROMISED THAT
THE CHURCH WOULD REBUILT,
AND THE JEWISH CITIES AND
THE JEWISH TOWNS, AND THAT
IS WHAT IS HAPPENING.
Terry: THE LAW THAT IS
DEMANDING THESE JEWS MOVE
FROM THEIR HOME AFTER THIS.
AND LATER ON, SUPER BOWL
HERO CHRIS REEVES TALKS
ABOUT THE RECOVERY THAT LED
THE NEW ORLEANS' SAINTS TO
VICTORY IN 2010.
Pat: IT'S "THE 700
CLUB," THANK YOU FOR BEING
WITH US.
THE WORLD CALLS IT THE WEST
BANK.
BUT THE 350,000 WHO LIVE
THERE STILL USE ITS BIBLICAL
NAME, JE JUDEA AND
SOMARIA.
THE UNITED NATIONS CALLS
THESE SO-CALLED SETTLERS ARE
AN ABS CU OBSTACLE TO
MIDEAST PEACE.
Reporter: HALF A
MILLION ISRAELIS UPROOTED
FROM THEIR HOMES.
ACCORDING TO A RECENT U.N.
REPORT, INTERNATIONAL LAW
DEMANDS SUCH A MOVE.
THE REPORT CALLED FOR ISRAEL
TO EVACUATE ALL EXISTING
SETTLEMENTS AND DISMANTTEL
JEWISH COMMUNITIES IN THE
EASTERN HALF OF JERUSALEM.
THE U.N. CONSIDERS ALL THESE
NEIGHBORHOODS AS ILLEGAL
PROVINCES.
IT MOUNTS AGAINST ISRAEL BY
THE DAY, INCLUDING TOUGH
WORDS FROM THE OBAMA
ADMINISTRATION.
YET ON A RECENT TOUR OF
JUDEA AND SOMARIA, CBN NEWS
FOUND A MUCH DIFFERENT
PICTURE THAT WHAT IS OFTEN
PORTRAYED IN THE MEDIA AND
WORLD FORUMS.
THE POPULATION IS
GROWING, FOUR TIMES GREATER
AND FIVE TIMES LATER THAN
THE NATIONAL AVERAGE IN
ISRAEL.
Reporter: DAVID IS
SPOKESMAN FOR THE SHAROM
REA REGIONAL COUNCIL IN
ISRAEL.
HE SAYS FAMILY-FRIENDLY
COMMUNITIES, FRESH AIR, AND
LAND AT AFFORDABLE PRICES
ARE THE REASONS THEY'RE
MOVING.
YOUNG FAMILIES WHO WISH
TO ESTABLISH THEMSELVES AND
RAISE CHILDREN, LOOK AROUND
AND SAY WHERE CAN THEY GET A
GOOD EDUCATION.
IT IS UP HERE ON THE
MOUNTAIN, WE HAVE GREAT
WEATHER, IT IS COOL IN THE
SUMMER.
THE PROPHETS HAVE PROMISED
TO RETURN AND REBUILD THESE
JEWISH TOWNS AND THAT IS
WHAT IS HAPPENING.
Reporter: WHILE HE IS
AN OBSERVANT JEW, 60% OF
THOSE LIVING IN SOMARIA ARE
SECULAR.
THIS IS THE REGIONAL
EDUCATION HUB, AND THE
16,000 STUDENTS COME FROM
ALL OVER ISRAEL.
ARAB STUDENTS HERE ARE FREE
TO WEAR MUSLIM RELIGIOUS
ATTIRE AND THEY STUDY
ALONGSIDE JEWS.
WE FOUND A SIMILAR STORY IN
THE INDUSTRIAL PARK, HOME TO
150 BUSINESSES, WHERE
ISRAELIS WORK SIDE BY SIDE
WITH THEIR PALESTINIAN
NEIGHBORS.
AN ARAB WORKING IN THESE
BUSINESSES, IN THESE
FACTORIES, MAKES DOUBLE, OR
THREE TIMES AS MUCH IN SOME
CASES, AS HE WOULD MAKE
WORKING FOR THE PALESTINIAN
AUTHORITY.
AND THE ABILITY TO MOVE UP
THE LADDER INTO A
SUPERVISORY OR MANAGEMENT
POSITION.
BUT THE JEWISH COMMUNITIES
OF SOMARIA ARE FREQUENT
TARGETS FOR TERRORIST
ATTACKS.
IN THE SOMARIAN TOWN OF
ITIMAR WAS WASN'T HORRIBLE
EXAMPLE.
THEY WERE MURDERED IN THREE
SLEEP.
FURTHER SOUTH, THE SITUATION
IS ALSO DIFFICULT.
DURING THE SECOND INTI
FATAH, WE WERE SHOT AT FOR
TWO AND A HALF YEARS.
Reporter: THE CITY,
WHICH IS MOSTLY PALESTINIAN
ARAB IS HOME TO JUD JUDAISM
SECOND HOLIEST SITE.
ABRAHAM, ISAAC, JACOB,
SARAH, LEAH, THE MATE
MATRIARCHS ARE ALL BURIED
HERE.
YOU CANNOT LET TERRORISM
DETERMINE HOW YOU LIVE OR
WHERE YOU LIVE.
IF YOU KNOW THIS IS YOUR
HOME AND THIS IS WHERE
YOU'VE SUPPOSED TO BE, WHAT
WOULD BE MORE NORMAL.
Reporter: IN
WITHDRAWING, ISRAEL WOULD
NOT ONLY GIVING UP A HUGE
PART OF ITS PAST, IT COULD
BE HARMING ITS FUTURE.
GOD FORBIDDEN HAMAS
TERRORISTS WOULD BE STANDING
HERE AND THEY WOULD BE
BASICALLY IN TOTAL CONTROL.
THEY WOULDN'T NEED
LONG-RANGE MISSILES.
THEY COULD REACH EVERY TOWN
AND CITY IN THIS AREA.
Reporter: ULI IS A
MEMBER OF PRIME MINISTER
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU'S
CABINET.
HE LIVES NOT FAR FROM
JERUSALEM, IN ANOTHER AREA
THE U.N. ONCE CLEARED OF
JEWS.
WITHOUT OUR TOTAL CONTROL
IN THESE AREAS, WE WON'T BE
ABLE TO RUN A NORMAL COUNTRY
HERE.
Reporter: HE TOLD CBN
THAT SOME OF THE SAME FORCES
THAT OPPOSED ISRAEL'S
PRESENCE IN THESE AREAS ARE
ALSO HOSTILE TO THE U.S.
IF THE BAD GUYS CAN DO IT
TO ISRAEL, AS A DEMOCRACY,
AND CAN TURN US INTO DEMONS
AND APARTHEID AND FASISTS,
THEY CAN DO IT TO EVERYBODY,
THE UNITED STATES INCLUDED.
Reporter: PRESIDENT
OBAMA MAKES HIS FIRST VISIT
HERE IN MARCH, AND
DISCUSSIONS OF JUDEA AND
SOMARIA ARE CERTAIN TO BE ON
HIS LIST.
Pat: IT IS BEAUTIFUL.
I HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF
VISITING ARIEL.
IT IS A FABULOUS CITY.
THEY HAVE A WONDERFUL
UNIVERSITY.
THEY HAVE THOUSANDS OF
PEOPLE BEING EMPLOYED.
BEAUTIFUL HOMES, LOVELY
STREETS.
I WAS SADDENED A COUPLE OF
WEEKS AGO TO LEARN THAT RON
KNOCKMAN, THE MAYOR, HAD
PASSED AWAY.
HE WAS A GRACIOUS HOST WHEN
I WAS OVER THERE.
Terry: IT IS THRIVING,
AND AS WE BOTH SAID WHEN WE
LOOKED AT IT, QUITE
BEAUTIFUL.
Pat: AND ARIEL IS
FANTASTIC.
BUT THE IDEA THAT PEOPLE WHO
HAVE NEVER BEEN THERE, KNOW
NOTHING ABOUT IT, SIT IN
SOME CONCLAVE IN BRUSSELS
AND MAKE DECREES ABOUT
TAKING THIS AWAY.
IT BELONGS TO ISRAEL.
IT WAS GIVEN TO THEM BY GOD
ALMIGHTY.
IT WAS LIVED IN BY ABRAHAM
AND ISAAC AND JACOB.
THIS IS JEWISH LAND.
THEY DON'T HAVE MUCH.
THE ARABS HAVE GIGANTIC
AREAS WITH LOTS OF OIL, BUT
THEY'VE GOT TO TAKE THAT
LITTLE, TEENY PIECE AWAY
FROM ISRAEL.
THAT WILL BE THE ULTIMATE
FIGHT, OVER JERUSALEM.
TRUST ME.
ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE.
THE LAST STRONGHOLD WILL BE
BE AGAINST JERUSALEM.
AND THAT'S GOING TO BE THE
LAST BATTLE.
IT IS GOING TO BE A BIG
ONE.
TERRY?
Terry: UP NEXT, IT IS
ONE OF THE TOP 10 GREATEST
SUPER BOWL PLAYS OF THE
DECADE.
AND YOU'RE ABOUT TO MEET THE
PLAYER WHO PULLED IT OFF.
CHRISTOPHER REEVE TALKS
ABOUT THE RECOVERY OF A
LIFETIME, AND HOW IT CHANGED
HIS RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS
FATHER AFTER THIS.
Terry: IN 2010, THE NEW
ORLEANS' SAINTS' SUPER BOWL
VICTORY GAVE THE CITY A NEW
LEASE ON LIFE.
IT ALSO SET THE STAGE FOR A
DIFFERENT KIND OF RECOVERY,
BETWEEN A SON AND HIS
FATHER.
Reporter: IT WAS
FEBRUARY 7, 2010, IN THE
THIRD QUARTER OF SUPER BOWL
44, WHERE THE INDIANAPOLIS
COLTS WERE ON TOP OF THE NEW
ORLEANS SAINTS.
ON ONE OF THE GUTSIEST PLACE
IN SUPER BOWL HISTORY, CHRIS
REEVES RECOVERED AN ON-SIDE
THROW WHICH CHANGED THE
GAME.
THE SAINTS WENT ON TO WIN
THEIR FIRST SUPER BOWL
CHAMPIONSHIP IN FRANCHISE
HISTORY.
HIS FATHER, MIKE, WHO WAS
WATCHING IN THE STANDS, HAD
TO MAKE HIS OWN RECOVERY.
IN THEIR BOOK, "RECOVERY OF
A LIFETIME," MIKE AND CHRIS
SHARE HOW THAT SUPER BOWL
PLAY WOULD CHANGE THEIR
LIVES AS FATHER AND SON
FOREVER.
Terry: PLEASE WELCOME
TO "THE 700 CLUB" CHRIS
REEVES AND HIS DAD, MIKE.
GLAD TO HAVE YOU HERE.
GREAT TO BE HERE.
THANK YOU.
Terry: WE'RE GOING TO
TALK ABOUT YOUR STORY AND
THE BOOK THE TWO OF YOU HAVE
WRITTEN TOGETHER, BUT FIRST
LET ME ASK YOU, CHRIS, WHAT
IT WAS LIKE TO BE A PART OF
THAT INCREDIBLE PLAY -- PLAY
OF THE DECADE, MANY ARE
SAYING?
WHEN DID YOU KNOW YOU WERE
GOING FOR THE GOAL?
HE SAID, HEY, WE'RE
RUNNING AMBUSH.
Terry: AND DID YOU ALL
GO, WHAT?
I THINK OUR STOMACHS KIND
OF DROPPED.
WE QUESTIONED IT, BUT YOU'VE
GOT TO TRUST YOUR LEADER.
AND HE DIDN'T LEAD US ASTRAY
THE WHOLE SEASON.
Terry: LOOK AT THAT.
EVERY TIME I WATCH FOOTBALL
AT HOME, I THINK OF THE POOR
GUY AT THE BOTTOM OF THE
HEAP.
THAT'S ME.
A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T
REALIZE I'M UNDER THAT
PILE.
63 SECONDS, AND IT WAS THE
LONGEST-MINUT LONGEST
MINUTE OF MY LIFE, FOR
SURE.
Terry: I CANNOT
IMAGINE.
I WATCHED THEM PEEL OFF ONE
GUY AT A TIME.
I WAS JUST TRYING TO HOLD
ON TO THE BALL.
THAT'S ALL I WAS TRYING TO
DO.
Terry: MIKE, HERE YOU
ARE, AND YOU'RE WATCHING
THIS ON THE SIDELINE.
THAT'S A DAD'S MOMENT.
WHAT WAS GOING ON IN YOUR
MIND?
IT WAS A DREAM COME
TRUE.
FIRST OF ALL, I WATCH FOR
CHRIS.
I DON'T REALLY WATCH THE
PLAY.
I'M LOOKING ALL OVER THE
PLACE, AND I GO, WHERE IS
HE.
I CAN'T FIND HIM ANYWHERE,
SO I KNEW HE WAS AT THE
BOTTOM OF THE PILE.
Terry: AND YOU'RE
HOPING, NOT UNDER THERE.
WELL, IF HE'S UNDER
THERE, I HOPE HE HAS THE
BALL.
Terry: I WANT TO TALK
ABOUT THE RECOVERY.
THAT WAS AN AMAZING
RECOVERY, BUT THE RECOVERY
BETWEEN THE TWO OF YOU.
LET ME START FOR YOU, MIKE,
IF I CAN.
BECAUSE THAT WAS A HIGH FOR
A DAD, AND TWO WEEKS LATER
YOU'RE ARRESTED FOR A
D.U.I., JAILED.
WHAT IS GOING THROUGH YOUR
MIND?
WELL, THERE WAS AN
INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF SHAME
ON MY PART.
AS YOU SAID, I BECAME A
CHRISTIAN IN 2005, BUT MY
BEHAVIOR WOULDN'T INDICATE I
WAS.
I WAS STILL DRINKING A LOT.
AND MY CHOICES WERE STILL
BAD.
AND I WAS ARRESTED.
AND IT WASN'T THE FIRST TIME
THAT I HAD BEEN ARRESTED.
AND I -- YOU KNOW, AS I WAS
ARRESTED THAT NIGHT, I
THOUGHT, I'M THE FATHER OF A
SUPER BOWL CHAMPION AND I
BEHAVE LIKE THIS?
AND SO THERE WAS A GREAT
SENSE OF SHAME.
Terry: WAS THAT A
CATALYST ACTUALLY FOR YOU TO
MOVE INTO A DIFFERENT LEVEL
OF YOUR COMMITMENT IN YOUR
WALK WITH THE LORD?
IT REALLY WAS.
I TOOK A LOOK AT CHRIS' LIFE
AND WHAT HE ACCOMPLISHED ON
AND OFF THE FIELD.
I THOUGHT, MY SON IS DOING
THIS, AND ACTUALLY LIVING
HIS FAITH.
AND THAT'S WHAT I NEED TO
DO.
SO I USED HIS LIFE AS AN
EXAMPLE TO TURN MY LIFE
AROUND.
Terry: HOW DID YOU FIND
THE LORD, CHRIS?
I MEAN, YOU GREW UP IN A
LITTLE BIT OF CHAOS.
YEAH.
I THINK MY MOM LIVED IT
OUT.
SHE SHOWED ME HOW TO LOVE,
AND I SAW HER BAPTIZED WITH
MY GREAT GRANDFATHER.
IT CAUSED ME TO SEARCH MY
FAITH AND WHO I WAS AND WHAT
MY PURPOSE WAS.
JUST SEEING HER EXAMPLE, IT
WAS AMAZING AND IT WAS
INSPIRING TO ME.
Terry: YOU KNOW, MIKE,
YOU STRUGGLE WITH A COUPLE
OF ISSUES THAT ARE BIG
ISSUES FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE.
MEN AND WOMEN.
RIGHT.
Terry: SEXUAL ADDICTION
AND ALCOHOL.
AND IT IS NOT UNUSUAL,
EITHER, FOR PEOPLE TO HAVE
THE EXPERIENCE YOU HAVE,
WHERE THEY DESIRE TO KNOW
THE LORD AND THEY MAKE THAT
COMMITMENT, BUT THE CHANGE
DOESN'T COME RIGHT AWAY.
THAT'S RIGHT.
Terry: HOW DID YOU
PRESS THROUGH ALL OF THAT
AND GET TO THE
BREAKTHROUGH.
IT WAS THE MORNING AFTER
I WAS ARRESTED, AND I WAS
TAKING A SHOWER, AND, AGAIN,
SOMETHING CAME OVER ME.
I REALIZED AT THAT POINT,
WHILE I WAS TAKING A SHOWER,
I HAD NOT FULLY COMMITTED TO
GOD.
I HAD HELD ON TO A LITTLE
BIT JUST FOR ME.
I THINK AS CHRISTIANS WE DO
THAT A LOT.
WE'RE WILLING TO GIVE UP
WHATEVER IS COMFORTABLE TO
GOD.
I JUST MADE THE DECISION AT
THAT POINT THAT I HAD TO
COMPLETELY SURRENDER.
AND IT WAS THROUGH THAT
SURRENDER I GAINED ALL THIS
FREEDOM.
Terry: WAS THAT A
LITTLE SCARY?
IT WAS A LOT SCARY.
Terry: YEAH.
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THE
DEEPEST, DARKEST CORNERS OF
YOUR HEART AND MIND.
THAT'S RIGHT.
Terry: ESPECIALLY WHEN
YOU HAVE ADDICTIONS TO
THINGS.
WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO PEOPLE
WHO ARE LISTENING TO WHAT WE
ARE TALKING ABOUT RIGHT NOW,
WHO ARE IN THAT PLACE, AND
PROBABLY FEELING HOPELESS
FROM TIME TO TIME.
I WOULD TELL THEM IT IS
NEVER TOO LATE TO BECOME THE
PERSON THAT GOD INTENDED YOU
TO BE.
IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU
HAVE DONE IN YOUR LIFE.
IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW OLD
YOU ARE OR HOW YOUNG YOU
ARE.
YOU CAN STILL BE THAT
PERSON.
I WOULD TELL THEM, SURRENDER
YOUR LIFE COMPLETELY TO
CHRIST.
AND IF YOU DO THAT, AND IF
YOU TRUST GOD, EVERYTHING
WILL BE JUST FINE.
Terry: IT IS A LITTLE
BIT LIKE FREE FALLING, ISN'T
IT?
YOU'VE GOT TO JUMP OFF THE
CLIFF.
YOU'VE GOT TO JUMP.
Terry: HOW DID THE TWO
OF YOU DECIDE TO WRITE THIS
BOOK, "RECOVERY OF A
LIFETIME."
IT OUTLINES MANY SIDES, THE
FATHER AND SON RELATIONSHIP,
AND OVERCOMING ADDICTIONS --
HOW DID YOU COME TO THE
PLACE TO DO THIS?
THAT'S A LONG STORY, BUT
A LOT OF IT HAS TO DO WITH
US THAT IT IS A CALLING.
WE NEVER DECIDED WE WANTED
TO BE AUTHORS ONE DAY WHEN
WE WOKE UP.
TWO WEEKS AFTER THE SUPER
BOWL, MY DAD WAS TELLING ME
ABOUT HIS ADDICTIONS AND THE
ARRESTS AND EVERYTHING
ELSE.
AND HE WAS LAYING IT ALL OUT
THERE.
I TOLD HIM, I FEEL LIKE I'M
SUPPOSED TO WRITE A BOOK.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M
SUPPOSED TO DO, BUT I HAVE A
TITLE, AND IT'S "RECOVERY OF
A LIFETIME."
AND MY DAD SAYS, JUST DON'T
MAKE ME LOOK BAD.
TWO YEARS LATER, GOD BROUGHT
IT BACK TO OUR VISION, AND
HE SAID, THIS IS WHAT I WANT
YOU GUYS TO DO.
HE HAD TO GET THAT RIGHT,
AND NOW WE JUST WANT TO TELL
OUR STORY AND INSPIRE PEOPLE
TO LIVE FOR MORE THAN WHAT
THIS WORLD HAS TO OFFER.
THERE IS SO MUCH STUFF OUT
THERE, AND WE WANT TO GIVE
PEOPLE HOPE.
Terry: MIKE, YOU'RE
PRETTY CANDID ABOUT THE
SEXUAL ADDICTION IN THE
BOOK.
DID YOU STRUGGLE WITH HOW
MUCH DO I TALK ABOUT THIS?
A LOT.
IT'S FUNNY, IN THE COURSE OF
WRITING THE BOOK, I
DISCOVERED THAT MY SEXUAL
ADDICTION WAS PRETTY
SIGNIFICANT.
I ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT THE
PROBLEM WAS PRIMARILY
ALCOHOL.
BUT AMONG SOME OTHER THINGS,
I DISCOVERED IT IS A TOPIC
NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE TALK
ABOUT IT --
Terry: BUT THERE IS A
LOT OF SHAME IN THIS.
AND AS LONG AS THE ENEMY CAN
KEEP US IN THE DARK AND
HIDING --
RIGHTS.
IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT.
I WANTED TO MAKE SURE WE CAN
SHINE A LIGHT ON THIS
BEHAVIOR.
DON'T BE ASHAMED OF THIS.
THE ENEMY ATTACKS US IN SO
MANY WAYS.
IF YOU SHINE A LIGHT ON IT,
YOU CAN OVERCOME THIS.
Terry: MAKE GETTING
FREE THE GOAL, OR GETTING
OUT FROM UNDER A PILE.
IT IS A GREAT AND AMAZING
STORY.
THE BOOK IS CALLED "RECOVERY
OF A LIFETIME."
THERE IS A LOT IN HERE.
AS A VIEWER WARNING, I DO
WANT YOU TO KNOW IT CONTAINS
MATURE SUBJECT MATTER, SO
YOU WANT TO BE CAREFUL WHO
IS READING IT.
WE ARE ALL ABOUT GETTING
FREE IN THE LORD ON THIS
SHOW.
THANK YOU BOTH.
IT'S GREAT TO MEET YOU.
STILL AHEAD, WE HAVE YOUR
E-MAIL QUESTIONS FROM OUR IN
BOX.
JAVIER SAYS I HAVE HEARD A
LOT OF TALK ABOUT THE OCCULT
AND THE ALUMINATTI, BUT I'M
NOT SURE WHAT THEY.
CAN YOU HELP ME UNDERSTAND
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN THE TWO?"
PAT WILL ANSWER THAT WHEN WE
COME BACK WITH "BRING IT
ON."
Lee: WELCOME BACK TO
"THE 700 CLUB."
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA SEES
A MAJOR OBSTACLE AHEAD AS IT
PREPARES
TO PROVIDE COVERAGE
UNDER OBAMACARE.
CALIFORNIA LEADERS SAY THERE
ARE NOT ENOUGH DOCTORS TO
TREAT ALL OF THE NEWLY
INSURED PATIENTS.
SO SOME LAWMAKERS IN THAT
STATE WANT TO REDEFINE WHO
CAN PROVIDE HEALTH CARE.
THEY SAY MORE POWER SHOULD
BE GIVEN TO PHYSICIAN
ASSISTANTS, OPTOMETRISTS, AS
WELL AS PHARMACISTS.
BUT SOME DOCTORS SAY THE
MOVE COULD ENDANGER PATIENTS
AND
DRIVE UP HEALTH CARE
COST IN
THE LONG-TERM.
A PORTRAIT
OF JESUS
AT A
PUBLIC SCHOOL IN
OHIO IS NOW
THE FOCUS
OF
A FEDERAL
LAWSUIT.
THE AMERICAN CIVIL LIBERTIES
FOUNDATION OF OHIO SAYS THE
PORTRAIT
VIOLATES THE
CONSTITUTION BECAUSE
IT PRO
PROMOTES RELIGION.
THEY SAY IT SHOULD
BE
REMOVED FROM THE SCHOOL.
THE SUPERINTENDENT SAYS
THE
SCHOOL BOARD WILL
TALK ABOUT
APPROPRIATE COURSES OF
ACTION AT
ITS NEXT MEETING.
SCHOOL OFFICIALS,
THOUGH,
SAY A
STUDENT GROUP DONATED
THAT
PORTRAIT, AND IT
HAS
BEEN IN THE
SCHOOL DISPLAY
SINCE
ABOUT 1947.
YOU CAN
ALWAYS
GET THE
LATEST FROM CBN NEWS BY

PAT AND TERRY
WILL
BE
BACK
WITH
MORE OF "THE 700 CLUB"
AFTER THIS.
Terry: WE WANT TO TAKE
SOME TIME TO ANSWER THE
E-MAIL QUESTIONS YOU
SUBMITTED.
AND THIS FIRST ONE IS FROM
JAVIER.
HE SAYS, "I'VE HEARD A LOT
OF TALK ABOUT THE OCCULT AND
THE ALUMINATI, BUT I'M NOT
SURE WHAT THEY ARE.
CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME
UNDERSTAND THIS, AND WHAT IS
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE
TWO?"
Pat: JAVIER, THAT IS A
GIG QUESTION.
BIG QUESTION, I APPRECIATE
YOU ASKING IT.
THE OCCULT HAS TO DO WITH
ALL OF THOSE SEEKING EXTRA
SPIRITUAL ENLIGHTENMENT
THROUGH FORTUNE-TELLERS,
THROUGH TAROT CARDS AND
SEANCES, THE WHOLE THING.
HAVING TO DO WITH
SPIRITISM.
ALL OF THAT IS CALLED THE
OCCULT.
THE ALUMINATI SPECIFICALLY
REFERS TO A GROUP OF PEOPLE
OPERATING ABOUT THE TIME OF
THE FRENCH REVOLUTION WHO
THOUGHT THAT THEY HAD COME
ACROSS SOME EGYPTIAN OCCULT
MATERIAL.
AND THE WHOLE IDEA OF
ALUMINATI, THEY WERE THE
ALUMINED ONES.
AND THEY HAD A SYSTEM WHAT
VERY MUCH MIRRORS MODERN-DAY
COMMUNISM, AND OTHER THINGS
WE HAVE SEEN IN OUR MODERN
WORLD.
BUT THEY ADVANCED A PROGRAM
WHICH HAD TO DO WITH
ELIMINATING PRIVATE PROPERTY
AND ELIMINATING MARRIAGE AND
ELIMINATING GOVERNMENT.
IT WAS A RADICAL TYPE OF
THING.
IT WAS THE INTELLECTUAL
FORERUNNER OF THE FRENCH
REVOLUTION.
THEY GOT INTO THE MASONS AND
IT WAS SOMETHING CALL AL
ALUMINATED INFLUENCE.
Terry: THERE ARE PEOPLE
WHO STRONGLY FEEL TODAY THAT
IS STILL AN ACTIVE GROUP.
BUT THEN THERE ARE OTHERS
WHO SAY IT IS HISTORY.
Pat: I DON'T KNOW.
BUT IT WENT THROUGH
COMMUNISM, WHICH IS STILL
THERE.
Terry: MARGARITA SAYS,
"I HEARD RUMORS THAT THE
THIRD TEMPLE OF ISRAEL IS
ALREADY BEING BUILT.
IS THIS TRUE?"
Pat: I HAVE HEARD THE
RUMORS, BUT I'VE BEEN THERE
AND WALKED THE TEMPLE MOUNT,
BUT IT JUST ISN'T THERE.
PEOPLE ARE BUILDING UP
STONE --
Terry: AND SOME OF THE
THINGS FOR SERVING IN THE
TEMPLE, AND THINGS LIKE
THAT.
Pat: TERRY, I READ A
TRACK TALKING ABOUT THE FACT
THAT VULTURES WERE COMING
BACK TO THE VALLEYS OF
MAGITO, AND THEY WERE READY
FOR THE FINAL BATTLE, WHERE
THEY WERE GOING TO EAT THE
FLESH OF WARRIORS.
Terry: DID YOU SEE ANY
FLESH OF WARRIORS?
Pat: SO I DROVE ALL THE
WAY TO THE VALLEY, AND I
DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING.
AND I SAW THIS BIRD, AND I
SAID, IS THAT A VULTURE?
AND THEY SAID, NO, IT IS A
STORK.
THIS TRACK WAS PURE BOLOGNA,
BUT THAT KIND OF FANTASY IS
IMPOSED ON PEOPLE TODAY.
Terry: RENEE SAYS,
"PAT, LAST WEEK YOU ANSWER A
VIEWER'S QUESTION ABOUT
REWARDS WE WILL SEE IN
HEAVEN.
PART OF IT, YOU SAID, I IT
WILL BE PART OF WHAT WE DID
HERE ON HEAVEN.
NOW I'M NOU MORE CONFUSED
AND SCARED.
AM I SAVED OR AM I
FORGIVEN?"
Pat: I'M NOT HERE TO
SCARE ANYBODY.
THE LORD SAID, HE WHO
BELIEVES MY WORD AND
BELIEVES ON HIM WHO SENT ME,
SHALL HAVE EVERLASTING
LIFE.
SHALL NOT COME INTO
JUDGMENT, BUT IS PASSED FROM
LIFE.
THE JUDGMENT IS SETTLED WHEN
YOU FIND JESUS AS SAVIOR.
BUT ACCORDING TO THE APOSTLE
PAUL, WE WILL STAND BEFORE
THE BEMA, THE JUDGMENT SEAT
OF CHRIST TO RECEIVE REWARDS
TO WHAT WE'VE DONE IN OUR
BODY.
AND WE'VE GOT TO GIVE
ACCOUNT.
IF YOU'VE BEEN SCREWING
AROUND FOR 30 YEARS, AND
YOU'VE KNOWN THE LORD, AND
YOU'RE SAVED, BUT YOU'RE
LIFE HAS NOT REFLECTED IT,
HE MIGHT -- JESUS HIMSELF
SAID HE THAT KNEW THE LORDS
WILL AND DID IT WILL BE
REWARDED.
AND HE WHO DIDN'T DO IT WILL
HAVE MANY STRIPES.
SO THERE MAY BE SOME KIND OF
PUNISHMENT IN RELATION TO
WHAT YOU'VE DONE.
BUT IT IS A LITTLE VAGUE,
AND SO DON'T BE SCARED.
THE BIG THING IS IF YOU
ACCEPTED THE LORD, YOU'RE
GOING TO BE IN HEAVEN, AND
HEAVEN IS GLORIOUS.
Terry: JERRY SAYS,
"WHAT IS YOUR BELIEF
CONCERNING THE LIFE ON OTHER
PLANETS.
IS THERE ANY BIBLICAL
REFERENCE TO THIS AND ARE
THEY OUR FRIENDS?"
Pat: WE'VE COME IN
PEACE -- NO.
THERE ARE A BUNCH OF ROCKS
RUNNING AROUND IN THE
HEAVENS.
THERE ARE A BUNCH OF GAS
BOMBS IN HEAVEN.
THERE ARE A BUNCH OF NUCLEAR
EXPLOSIONS IN THE HEAVENS.
I REALLY BELIEVE THAT THE
ASTRO PHYSICISTS HAVE IT
RIGHT.
THE WHOLE CONCEPT STARTED
WITH AN INCREDIBLY DENSE
THING THAT WASN'T EVEN
MATTER.
MATTER WAS FORMED AND THEN
IT EXPLODED, AND IT IS EVER
EXPANDING.
THE UNIVERSE CONTINUES TO
EXPAND, FROM WHAT WE CAN
GATHER.
THE ASTROPHYSICISTS I
TALKED TO -- HE SAID THE
UNIVERSE WAS TUNED FOR LIFE
HERE.
THE POSSIBILITY OF LIFE ON
THIS PLANET IS
EXTRAORDINARY, ABSOLUTELY
EXTRAORDINARY.
YOU HAVE TO HAVE A SUN.
YOU HAVE TO HAVE A MOON.
YOU HAVE TO HAVE WATER.
YOU HAVE TO HAVE A CERTAIN
AMOUNT OF SOIL.
YOU HAVE TO HAVE ALL OF
THESE THINGS EXACTLY RIGHT.
IT HAS TO TURN AT A
PARTICULAR WAY.
IT IS ALL SET IN TUNE FOR
LIFE.
I DON'T THINK THERE IS LIFE
ANY PLACE ELSE.
AND WHAT WE'VE FOUND IN MARS
AND THESE OTHER PLACES IS
JUST BARREN ROCKS.
SOME HOT, SOME COLD.
BUT THERE IS NOTHING THERE.
LOOK AT THE MOON.
THERE IS NOTHING THERE.
I DON'T THINK THERE IS ANY
OTHER PLANET WITH LIFE ON
IT.
I KNOW THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO
SAY, GOD HAS OTHER LIVES IN
OTHER WORLDS, BUT THERE IS
NOTHING IN THE BIBLE THAT
BACKS THAT UP.
BUT APPRECIATE IT.
ENJOY THIS WORLD YOU HAVE
NOW.
THIS IS THE ONLY ONE YOU'RE
GOING TO GET.
YOU'RE IN IT.
Terry: THAT'S A GOOD
WORD.
Pat: IS THAT IT?
Terry: THAT'S IT.
Pat: BLUES.
GLUZ.
GOD BLESS YOU.
I LOVE THOSE QUESTIONS.
I HOPE I'M GIVING YOU
INTELLIGENT ANSWERS SO IT
WILL HELP YOU.
Terry: RODA WHITE CAME
TO SCHOOL ON A SCHOLARSHIP,
BUT WITH ONLY $36 TO HER
NAME, THAT'S WHEN RODA CRIED
OUT TO HIR HINDU GODS AND
GOT AN ANSWER FROM JESUS.
WHEN I WAS BORN, THE AS
AF ASTROLOGIFT IT IS NOT
IMPORTANT TO RAISE HER.
Terry: SHE WAS RAISED
IN A DEVOUT HINDU FAMILY IN
INDIA.
SHE HAD A STRAINED
RELATIONSHIP WITH HER
FATHER, ONE THAT WORSENED
OVER TIME.
EVERY BUSINESS FAILURE HE
ENDURED OR FINANCIAL LOSS,
HE BLAMED IT ON ME.
HE BECAME AN ALCOHOLIC, AND
HE ABUSED US PHYSICALLY AND
VERBALLY.
Reporter: SHE SOUGHT
COMFORT AND ACCEPTANCE IN
HER FAMILY'S FAITH.
EVERY TIME I WENT TO
HINDU TEMPLES AND WORSHIPPED
GOD, IT WAS A FEAST.
BUT WHEN I CAME OUT OF THE
TEMPLES, THERE WAS ALWAYS A
VOID.
AND THAT VOID WAS SO
STRONG.
HOPELESSNESS WAS ALWAYS
THERE.
Reporter: RODA TURNED
TO EDUCATION IN HER SEARCH
FOR PURPOSE.
HER EXCELLED IN HER
STUDIES.
I DID MY MASTERS IN
MEDICAL AND PSYCHIATRIC AND
SOCIAL WORK.
AFTER I COMPLETED THAT, I
WAS GIVEN A JOB TO WORK AS A
COUNSELLOR IN A CANCER
HOSPITAL.
Reporter: SHE PROVIDED
CARE AND COMFORT FOR MANY OF
THE PATIENTS.
HOWEVER, THIS ONLY DEEPENED
THE EMPTINESS SHE FELT IN
HER OWN LIFE.
PEOPLE WERE SUFFERING,
YOU KNOW, YOUNG AND OLD.
SOME OF THEM HAD ASKED ME,
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO THEIR
SOUL ONCE THEY DIED.
I DIDN'T HAVE ANY ANSWERS.
I FELT REALLY DESPERATE.
SO I KIND OF FILLED MY VOID
WITH MORE EDUCATION.
Reporter: RODA RECEIVED
A SCHOLARSHIP TO STUDY IN
AMERICA, BUT LIFE HERE
SEEMED HARDER THAN EVER.
THE CULTURE SHOCK WAS SO
GREAT.
I MISSED HOME, MY FAMILY.
I COULDN'T CONCENTRATE
MUCH.
AND MY GRADES STARTED GOING
DOWN.
Reporter: SHE WAS ON
THE VIRGE OF LOSING HER
SCHOLARSHIP, BUT SHE HAD A
GREATER PROBLEM.
I HAD ONLY $36 IN MY
ACCOUNT, AND MY SOCIAL
SECURITY CARD WAS STAMPED,
NOT AUTHORIZED FOR WORK.
Reporter: IT WAS
IMPOSSIBLE FOR RODA TO PAY
FOR HER OWN EDUCATION, AND
H SHE BECAUSE UNABLE TO
AFFORD A PLANE TICKET BACK
TO INDIA.
THE FEAR OF HOMELESSNESS
TOOK OVER.
I WAS REALLY AFRAID OF
THE FUTURE.
I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS GOING
TO HAPPEN TO ME IN THIS
FOREIGN LAND.
Reporter: RODA SOUGHT
HELP FROM THE ONLY SOURCE
SHE USED.
I CRIED OUT TO ALL OF THE
GODS, WHICH OF YOU IS THE
TRUE GOD SO I CAN CRY TO ONE
OF YOU.
I AM CRYING TO ALL OF YOU.
I HEARD, THESE ARE MAN-MADE
IMAGES, AND I'M A HOLY
CHURCH.
HE SAID GO TO CHURCH AND YOU
WILL FIND ME.
I SAID NO WAY.
THAT COULDN'T BE TRUE.
I REJECTED THE THOUGHT.
BUT IN MY DESPERATION, WHEN
THE THOUGHT WAS SO STRONG, I
NEEDED AN ANSWER.
Reporter: A FELLOW
STUDENT INVITED HER TO
CHURCH.
I SAT IN THE LAST SEAT,
AND I STARTED LISTENING TO
THEM WORSHIPPING.
THERE WAS SUCH JOY IN MY
HEART THAT I COULDN'T
EXPLAIN.
THERE WAS PEACE IN MY
HEART.
THE PASTOR SAID THAT GOD
WANTS TO HAVE A RELATIONSHIP
WITH ME.
AS A FATHER-DAUGHTER
RELATIONSHIP, ALL I HAVE TO
DO IS JUST REPENT FOR MY
SINS, INVITE JESUS AS MY
LORD AND SAVIOR.
I WAS A PRIDE-FILLED
PERSON.
I SAID THERE IS NO WAY I'M A
SINNER.
I'M A GOOD PERSON.
I'M A GOOD SOCIAL WORKER.
I'VE HELPED HUNDREDS OF
PEOPLE IN MY LIFE.
Reporter: SHE REFUSED
THE PASTOR'S INVITATION.
OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS, SHE
WRESTLED WITH THESE
THOUGHTS.
BUT ONE NIGHT SHE HAD A
VISION.
WHEN I LAID DOWN AND
TRIED TO SLEEP, IT WAS LIKE
A MOVIE, ALL OF THE THINGS
THAT ARE NOT RIGHT IN THE
EYES OF GOD.
WHEN I SAW THAT, THE THINGS
THAT ARE WRONG AND SINFUL IN
THE EYES OF GOD, THEN I
SHOULD ASK FOR FORGIVENESS.
SO I GOT ON MY KNEES BY MY
BED, AND I SAID, GOD, I ASK
FOR YOUR FORGIVENESS.
AND I DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT
JESUS, BUT I INVITE HIM AS
MY ONLY LORD AND SAVIOR.
Reporter: THE EMPTINESS
AND LONELINESS STARTED TO
DISAPPEAR.
NOW I HAVE THIS GOD, THE
PERSONAL GOD, THAT WILL WALK
WITH ME AND CARRY ME THROUGH
AND GUIDE ME AND COUNSEL ME
AND MINISTER TO ME, SO THE
FEAR WAS TAKEN AWAY FROM
ME.
FROM THEN ON WARDS, MIRACLE
AFTER MIRACLE AFTER MIRACLE
HAPPENED IN MY LIFE.
Reporter: SHE RECEIVED
A SCHOLARSHIP TO ANOTHER
UNIVERSITY, WHICH EXTENDED
HER VISA.
SHE ALSO MOVED
INTO
A
CHRISTIAN WOMAN'S HOME,
WHERE SHE WAS MENTORED IN A
RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD.
RODA IS MARRIED NOW WITH A
FAMILY OF HER OWN.
SHE HAS FULL ASSURANCE SHE
FOUND THE TRUE GOD SHE WAS
LOOKING FOR.
JESUS GAVE ME THE SENSE
OF SECURITY AND PEACE AND
JOY AND HOPE.
WHEN YOU REALLY EMBRACE
GOD'S LOVE, THEN THERE IS NO
FEAR AND THERE IS NO
LONELINESS, NO MORE
LONELINESS.
HIS LOVE SURROUNDS YOU AND
HE BLESSES YOU.
INTERPRETER
Terry: WE WERE CREATED
INTENTIONALLY TO BE
RELATIONAL PEOPLE.
WE ARE MEANT TO BE IN
RELATIONSHIP, ESPECIALLY
WITH THE ONE WHO CREATED
US.
GOD LOVES YOU SO MUCH.
YOU KNOW, OF ALL OF THE
FAITHS IN THE WORLD, WE HAVE
THE ONLY FAITH WHERE RATHER
THAN US CONSTANTLY REACHING
OUT AND STRETCHING AND
STRIVING AND SACRIFICING AND
DOING THINGS TO BE
ACCEPTABLE ENOUGH TO GOD,
OUR GOD COMES TO US AND
SAYS, RECEIVE ME.
LET ME LOVE YOU.
I WANT TO FORGIVE YOU.
I WANT TO GIVE YOU HOPE AND
A FUTURE.
I WANT TO GIVE YOUR LIFE
PURPOSE AND MEANING.
IF THAT'S SOMETHING THAT
YOU'RE LOOKING FOR IN YOUR
LIFE TODAY, IT'S AVAILABLE
TO YOU.
WHO SO EVER WILL, MAY COME.
ANYONE WHO CALLS UPON THE
NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE
SAVED.
AND THAT SALVATION
EXPERIENCE IS THE BEGINNING
OF THE MOST AMAZING
RELATIONSHIP YOU WILL EVER
EMBARK ON.
THERE IS FORGIVENESS.
THERE IS A FRESH START AND A
NEW BEGINNING.
I DON'T KNOW ANYONE WHO
DOESN'T NEED THAT.
ALL OF US, THE BIBLE SAYS,
HAVE SINNED AND FALLEN SHORT
OF THE GLORY OF GOD.
ALL OF US NEED A SAVIOR.
THAT'S WHY JESUS PAID THE
PRICE FOR YOU AND ME.
SO WE COULD HAVE ENTRY NOT
JUST TO ETERNITY, BUT TO A
RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD
HIMSELF.
JESUS SAID, "I STAND AT THE
DOOR AND KNOCK.
IF ANYONE HEARS MY VOICE AND
OPENS THE DOOR, I WILL COME
IN AND HAVE FELLOWSHIP WITH
HIM, AND HE WITH ME."
RELATIONSHIP, RELATIONSHIP,
RELATIONSHIP.
FORGIVENESS, FORGIVENESS.
GOD WANTS TO REDEEM IN YOUR
LIFE WHATEVER THE ENEMY HAS
STOLEN FROM YOU.
COME TO HIM HUMBLY, LIKE
RODA DID, AND LIKE MIKE AND
CHRIS REEVES DID.
