I LOST ALL OF MY STUFF
AND ENDED UP ON THE STREET.
Lee: WITH TWO KIDS IN
TOW.
DRINKING, DOING WHATEVER,
I JUST DIDN'T CARE.
Lee: AND THE STRANGER
THAT RESCUED HER.

Pat: WELCOME, FOLKS, TO
THIS EDITION OF "THE 700
CLUB."
ISN'T IT AMAZING, IF IT
SNOWS HARD IT'S GLOBAL
WARMING.
IF IT'S WARM, IT'S GLOBAL
WARMING.
IF IT IS FREEZING COLD, IT'S
GLOBAL WARMING.
IF THERE ARE HURRICANES, IT
IS GLOBAL WARMING.
IF THERE ARE NO HURRICANES,
IT IS GLOBAL WARMING.
I WAS INTRODUCED TO THIS
CONCEPT TODAY BY OUR
PRODUCER.
AND WE UNDERSTAND THIS MUST
BE AN EFFECTIVE GLOBAL
WARMING BECAUSE THERE IS A
HUGE WINTER STORM GETTING
THE COUNTRY.
IT EVEN KNOCKED A GOLF
TOURNAMENT OUT IN ARIZONA,
WHICH IS UNPRECEDENTED.
AND THIS PARTICULAR STORM IS
STIRRING AROUND IN THE
HEARTLAND OF AMERICA,
KANSAS, NEBRASKA, AND PLACES
LIKE THAT.
20 STATES ARE UNDER A WINTER
STORM WATCH OR WARNING.
Terry: THE SYSTEM IS
BRINGING MORE SNOW, MORE
ICE, EVEN TORNADOES IN SOME
PLACES.
AND AS PAT JUST SAID, SOME
SCIENTISTS SAY GLOBAL
WARMING IS BEHIND THESE
WINTER STORMS.
HERE IS EPHRAIM GRAHAM.
Reporter: RESIDENTS OF
THE CENTRAL U.S. ARE
STOCKING UP ON LAST-MINUTE
SUPPLIES TODAY, BRACING FOR
UP TO A FOOT OF SNOW.
EVERYBODY IS GETTING
READY FOR THE STORM AND THE
LINES ARE PRETTY LONG.
Reporter: THE MASSIVE
SNOWSTORM STARTED IN
CALIFORNIA.
A MIX OF RAIN, SNOW, AND
WIND, MAKING DRIVING
CONDITIONS DANGEROUS.
I WAS TRYING TO GO DOWN
THE STREET FROM MY HOUSE,
AND I STARTED TO GO SIDEWAYS
DOWN THE HILL.
AFTER WE GOT HIT HERE, WE
HIT A CAR THAT AT LEAST
SEVEN, EIGHT CARS HIT US.
Reporter: OFFICIALS IN
THE MIDWEST FEAR THIS COULD
BE THE WORST STORM IN TWO
YEARS.
FURTHER TO THE SOUTH, SEVERE
WEATHER IS ALSO POSSIBLE.
FACTORYS PREDICT TORNADOES
ACROSS TEXAS, LOUISIANA, AND
MISSISSIPPI.
IT IS THE SECOND MAJOR STORM
TO HIT THIS WINTER.
BUT GLOBAL WARMING ADVOCATES
SAY THE HUGE AMOUNTS OF SNOW
ACTUALLY MEAN THE EARTH IS
HEATING UP.
WHEN IT DOES SNOW, WATCH
OUT.
EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE,
THERE IS GOING TO BE A BIG
STORM, A KIND OF KNOCKOUT
PUNCH.
Reporter:
CLIMATOLOGISTS CLAIM THIS IS
BECAUSE A WARMER ATMOSPHERE
CAN HOLD THE MOISTURE.
THEY PREDICT MOST OF THAT
WILL COME DOWN AS RAIN.
BUT WHEN IT GETS COLD
ENOUGH, IT WILL TURN INTO
MONSTER SNOWSTORMS.
GET OUT YOUR SNOW
SHOVELS.
SNOWSTORMS WITH TWO OR THREE
FEET, THAT WERE HIGHLY
UNUSUAL, THAT MAY, IN FACT,
BECOME MORE TYPICAL.
Reporter: EPHRAIM
GRAHAM, CBN NEWS.
Pat: ONLY IN PRINCETON
WOULD PEOPLE SAY NUTTY
THINGS LIKE THAT.
YOU GET TO BE Ph.D.s,
AND YOU WONDER WHERE THEY
STUDY TO LEARN ALL THESE
THINGS.
I'LL TELL YOU, IF YOU'RE A
TRUE BELIEVER, YOU'RE A TRUE
BELIEVER THAT BAD THINGS
WILL HAPPEN BECAUSE YOU SEE
THEM COMING.
I'M TELL YOU SOMETHING THAT
IS MUCH MORE SERIOUS THAN
GLOBAL WARMING.
THEY FOUND A SUN SPOT SIX
TIMES THE SIZE OF EARTH, AND
THERE IS A SOLAR FLARE THAT
COULD BE ON THE WAY AS WE
SPEAK, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
MAJOR DAMAGE TO THE
COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS, AND
THE CONTROL MECHANISMS TO
OUR POWER GRID, ETC.
WE'RE NOT SURE HOW EXTENSIVE
IT MAY BE.o.3z[çmññFÑi)jbxVx
t8Kozfcz&7R)iSQSj ARE
FROM PEOPLE
HERE ON THE
EARTH WHO ARE IN THE RANGE
OF THIS SOLAR STORM.
AND GEORGE THOMAS HAS THAT
STORY FROM THE CBN NEWS
ROOM.
HERE IS GEORGE.
George: PAT, SOME CRAZY
STUFF.
SCIENTISTS ARE MONITORING A
SPOT ON THE EARTH'S SUN, AS
YOU MENTIONED.
LARGE ENOUGH TO SWALLOW SIX
EARTH'S.
NASACAMERAS CAPTURED THE
SUN SPOT AS IT GREW TO
MASSIVE PROPORTIONS OVER THE
LAST TWO DAYS.
SOME SUN SPOTS FORM AS
MAGNETIC SHIELDS SHIFT ON
THE SURFACE OF THE EARTH.
THEY HAVE THE POTENTIAL OF
THROWING OFF BURSTS OF
RADIATION IN THE FORM OF
SOLAR FLARES.
THE SUN IS EXPECTED TO REACH
THE PEAK OF ITS SOLAR
WEATHER CYCLE, AND SOLAR
FLARES COULD DISRUPT
SPACECRAFTS, SATELLITES,
G.P.S., AIRPLANE GRIDS, AND
POWER GRIDS WHEN THEY
COLLIDE WITH THE EARTH'S
GRAVITY SHIELD.
THE IMPACT COULD BE
CATASTROPHIC.
WITHOUT THE ELECTRIC
GRID, WELL, OF COURSE, THERE
IS NO POWER.
THERE IS ALSO NO WATER.
THERE IS ALSO NO
COMMUNICATIONS, NO
TRANSPORTATION, NO MEDICAL
CARE.
THE FINANCIAL SYSTEM WOULD
BE DOWN.
THE ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS
WOULD BE CATASTROPHIC AT A
LEVEL WEHAVE NEVER SEEN
BEFORE.
George: WELL,
SCIENTISTS MONITORING THE
SUN SPOTHAS THE
POTENTIAL TOTHROW OFF
FLARES LARGE ENOUGH TO CAUSE
A SOLAR STORM.
PAT?
Pat: WELL, THIS IS THE
REAL THING, FOLKS.
THIS IS THE REAL GOODS.
IT'S JUST A QUESTION WHEN
SOMETHING LIKE THIS HITS, IT
IS GOING TO HIT -- THESE
SOLAR FLARES ARE COMING OUT
ALL OF THE TIME.
BUT THIS IS THE MAXIMUM
INTENSE PERIOD FOR IT.
I DON'T LIKE TO BE AN
ALARMIST, BUT THIS COULD BE
IT.
THIS WHOLE GLOBAL WARMING
THING, IT IS HOTTER ON MARS,
AND THEY DON'T HAVE
S.U.V.s ON MARS.
WHY IS IT HOTTER ON MARS?
WHY?
BECAUSE THE SUN IS SENDING
OUT MORE RADIATION, AND
THEREFORE THE SOLAR SYSTEM
IS HEATING UP, AND WE'RE
PART OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM.
WE REVOLVE AROUND THE SUN.
IF THESE SOLAR FLARES -- IF
THE RADIATION THAT COMES OUT
OF THEM -- THIS IS SERIOUS
BUSINESS.
GEORGE, WHAT'SNEXT?
George: PAT, THEOBAMA
ADMINISTRATION ISTHINKING
ABOUTASKING THE SUPREME
COURTTO OVERTURN
CALIFORNIA'S BANON GAY
MARRIAGE.
PROPOSITION 8 IS THE VOTER
APPROVED MEASUREBATTLING
SAME-SEX MARRIAGE IN THAT
STATE.
PRESIDENT OBAMA RAISED
EXPECTATIONS FOR GAY
MARRIAGE SUPPORTERS IN HIS
INAUGURAL ADDRESS LAST
MONTH.
HE STATEDTHAT GAYS AND
LESBIANS MUST BE TREATED
LIKE ANYONE ELSE UNDER THE
LAW.
THE ADMINISTRATIONONE
WEEK TO FILE A FRIEND OF THE
COURT BRIEF.
OVERSEAS TENSION ISRISING
BETWEENEGYPT'S POWERFUL
MILITARY, AND ITLAMB'S
GOVERNMENT AND ITS
PRESIDENT.
THE MILITARY HAS DROPPED
HINTS IT MIGHT SEIZE POWER
AGAIN.
THE MILITARY HAS MADE IT
CLEAR IT WILL STEP IN IF
EGYPT IS HEADING TOWARDS
ANOTHER POLITICAL CRISIS,
AND SEVERAL TIMES HAS OPENLY
DEFIED ORDERS FROM THE
COUNTRY'S PRESIDENT.
IT COMES AFTER RUMORS THAT
PRESIDENT MORSI HAD PLANS TO
REPLACE HIS DEFENSE MINISTER
BECAUSE HE WAS BRINGING THE
POWER UNDER THE MUSLIM
BROTHERHOOD.
THE BROTHERHOOD DENIES THOSE
CLAIMS, AND MORSI'S OFFICE
REISSUED ASTATEMENT,
REASSURINGTHE MILITARY
COMMANDERS OF HIS APPROVAL.
Pat: GEORGE, I REALLY
HOPE THE MILITARY -- IN SO
MANY OF THESE COUNTRIES THE
MILITARY HAS BEEN A FORCE OF
STABILITY AND ACTUALLY
DEMOCRACY.
YOU WOULD THINK THE MILITARY
WOULD BE PRO-DICTATOR, BUT
IN A SENSE, THEY'RE NOT
NECESSARILY.
I THINK THE MUSLIM
BROTHERHOOD IS A GREAT
DANGER.
SO I CHEER ON THE MILITARY
IN EGYPT.
WELL, WE'VE GOT A STORY NOW
AS WE SWITCH TO ISRAEL.
George: THAT'SRIGHT.
FLORIDA'S CONSERVATIVE
REPUBLICAN MARCO RUBIO SAYS
JERUSALEM IS THE CAPITAL OF
ISRAEL.
THE FATE OIS ONE OF
THE MOSTDIVISIVE ISSUES IN
THECONFLICT BETWEEN ISRAEL
AND THEPALESTINIANS.
THEOBAMA ADMINISTRATION HAS
REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE
JERUSALEM AS ISRAEL'S
CAPITAL.
BUT IN HIS FIRST VISIT TO
ISRAEL, HE STATED THAT HE
BELIEVES JERUSALEM BELONGS
TO ISRAEL.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
IT IS WONDERFUL TO BE HERE
IN THIS CITY, WHICH IS, OF
COURSE, THE CAPITAL OF YOUR
COUNTRY, BUT THE SPIRITUAL
CAPITAL OF MILLIONS OF
PEOPLE AROUND THE WORLD.
George: RUBIO
REITERATED AMERICA'S
BIPARTISAN SUPPORT FOR
ISRAEL.
AFTER FOUR YEARS IN OFFICE,
PRESIDENT OBAMA WILL MAKE
HISFIRST VISIT TO ISRAEL
NEXT MONTH.
IT COMES AT AN IMPORTANT
TIME IN THE RELATIONSHIP
BETWEEN OUR TWO COUNTRIES.
CHRIS MITCHELL HAS THAT
STORY FROM JERUSALEM.
Reporter: THE
PRESIDENT'S VISIT WILL BE A
BUSY ONE, GIVEN THE NUMBER
OF THREATS AND CONCERNS
FACING ISRAEL.
THE THREE THINGS THAT
BOTH THE WHITE HOUSE AND THE
PRIME MINISTER'S OFFICE ARE
STRESSING BEFORE THE VISIT
IS, NUMBER ONE, IRAN, NUMBER
TWO, SYRIA, AND NUMBER
THREE, Tá@
ZL(/m0%.zbñJkySñ>gKiÑPALESTINIANS.
AND ANOTHER ew0i-3íoÑ/Kkw'RsóçHA'i IS EGYPT.
WHICH IS A HUGE TOPIC RIGHT
NOW.
THEY'LL TALK ABOUT JORDAN
AND OTHER REGIONS OF
DEVELOPMENT.
Reporter: DURING HIS
FIRST TERM, HIS RELATIONSHIP
WITH BENJAMIN NETANYAHU HIT
A ROCKY ROAD.
I THINK IN THE VERY
BEGINNING, WHEN OBAMA CAME
OUT AND CALLED FOR BLANKET
SETTLE FREEZE EVERYWHERE,
INCLUDING IN JERUSALEM,
WHILE AT THE SAME TIME, NOT
MAKING SIMILAR DEMANDS ON
THE PALESTINIANS, I THINK
THAT WAS SEEN BY MANY
ISRAELIS AS AN UNREASONABLE
MAN.
I HOPE HE IS COMING TO
WARM UP THE RELATIONSHIP
THAT BY ANYBODY'S ESTIMATION
HAS BEEN A BIT CHILLY,
UNNECESSARILY.
Reporter: FORMER
GOVERNOR MIKE HUCKABEE TOLD
CBN NEWS HE HOPES OBAMA DOES
MORE THAN JUST MAKE UP WITH
AMERICA'S LONG TIME ALLIE.
WHAT WE NEED IS A
RELATIONSHIP THAT IS
RED-HOT.
IT NEEDS TO BE INSEPARABLE.
WE NEED TO SAY TO THE REST
OF THE WORLD, PEOPLE WHO
BELIEVE IN FREEDOM AND
INDIVIDUAL LIBERTY, WE STICK
TOGETHER BECAUSE WE HAVE SO
MUCH IN COMMON.
Reporter: NUMBER ONE ON
THAT LIST IS THE COMMON
THREAT OF A NUCLEAR IRAN.
HUCKABEE HOPES OBAMA MAKES
THAT A PRIORITY, INSTEAD OF
PRESSURING ISRAEL WITH THE
PALESTINIANS.
I WOULD HOPE HE IS NOT
COMING HERE TO ASK THEM TO
DO SOMETHING THEY HAVE BEEN
WILLING TO DO.
ISRAELIS HAVE BEEN MORE THAN
WILLING TO COME TO THE PEACE
TABLE TALKS, BUT THEY CAN'T
COME IF THE PALESTINIANS
REFUSE TO BELIEVE THAT THE
ISRAELIS EVEN HAVE A RIGHT
TO EXIST.
Reporter: HE SAYS
ISRAELIS HAVE BEEN WEARY OF
OBAMA, BUT EXPECTS THEM TO
GIVE HIM A SECOND CHANCE.
THE ISRAELI PUBLIC IS NOT
STUPID.
THE ISRAELI PUBLIC REALIZES
THEY HAVE NO BETTER FRIEND
THAT AMERICA.
AND PRESIDENT OBAMA IS THE
LEADER OF THE UNITED STATES,
SO YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE IT
WORK.
Reporter: OBAMA WILL
ONLY HAVE THREE DAYS TO MAKE
IT WORK BEFORE HE TAKES OFF
FOUR JORDAN.
CHRIS MITCHELL, CBN NEWS,
JERUSALEM.
George: PAT, DO YOU
TAKE ANY COMFORT KNOWING
THAT OUR INTELLIGENCE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ISRAEL
AND THE UNITED STATES IS
VERY STRONG?
Pat: THAT IS VERY
ENCOURAGING.
NOT ONLY THE INTELLIGENCE,
BUT THE MILITARY, THEY WORK
HAND IN GLOVE, AND THEY'RE
VERY CLOSE ON A NUMBER OF
ISSUES.
I WOULD THINK, AND IT'S A
HORRIBLE THOUGHT, BUT KEEP
YOUR EYES OPEN, LADIES AND
GENTLEMEN, THAT OBAMA IS
GOING TO GO AND MAKE SOME
KIND OF A GRANDSTANDING
SPEECH.
HE MAY GO DOWN TO THE WEST
BANK AND CRY OUT FOR THE
LIBERTY FOR THE OPPRESSED
PALESTINIANS.
YOU MARK MY WORD.
I DON'T THINK IT WILL BE ALL
SWEETNESS AND LIGHT.
AND BEHIND THE SCENES, HE IS
GOING TO TELL NETANYAHU TO
COOL IT AND NOT DO ANYTHING
AGAINST THE PALESTINIANS,
WHICH WOULD BE DEVASTATING.
MAYBE NOT, BUT KEEP YOUR
EYES OPEN.
George: PAT, THE HEAD
OF A U.S. TIRE COMPANY SAYS
HE WON'T TAKE OVER A PLANT
IN FRANCE BECAUSE OF ITS
CRAZY UNIONS.
HE IS THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OF
TITAN INTERNATIONAL.
FRANCE APPROACHED HIM SOME
TIME AGO ABOUT TAKING OVER A
PLANT THAT GOOD YEAR IS
CLOSING.
HE REJECTED THE IDEA IN NO
UNCERTAIN TERMS.
HE GAVE HIS RESPONSE IN A
LETTER TO FRANCE'S INDUSTRY
MINISTER.
THE LETTER WAS PUBLISHED IN
A FRENCH BUSINESS DAILY.
"HOW STUPID DO YOU THINK WE
ARE,ARE," TAYLOR ASKED.
THE FRENCH WAGE FORCE GETS
HIGH WAGES, AND ONLY WORKS
FOR THREE HOURS.
THEY GET ONE HOUR FOR LUNCH,
AND THEY WORK FOR THREE.
THEY TOLD ME, WELL, THAT'S
THE FRENCH WAY.
THE FRANCE 24 NEWS SERVICE
REPORTS THAT TAYLOR SAID THE
FRENCH MANUFACTURING SERVICE
IS DOOMED UNLESS IT DEALS
WITH ITS UNIONS AND FIERCE
COMPETITION FROM ASIA.
PAT?
Pat: I THINK IT IS
GREAT.
GOD BLESS YOU.
I DON'T KNOW WHO TAYLOR
IS -- I'M NOT FAMILIAR WITH
TITAN RUBBER COUNTRY, BUT,
MAN, HE LAID IT ON THE
LINE.
YOU DON'T TALK THAT WAY IN
EUROPE TO THE FRENCH.
YOU'RE VERY POLITE.
HE LAID IT ON THE LINE AND
TOLD THE TRUTH.
WORK FOR THREE HOURS, TALK
FOR THREE --
Terry: AND HOPEFULLY HE
WON'T HAVE TO DEFEND THOSE
STATEMENTS.
WE CAN WAIT AND SEE IF HE IS
RIGHT.
Pat: HE IS RIGHT.
THE PRODUCTIVITY IN FRANCE
IS APPALL.
APPALLING.
FRANCE IS A GREAT COUNTRY,
AND THEY HAVE A GREAT
HISTORY, BUT THEY'RE
SELF-DESTRUCTIVE.
THE AMAZING THING IS THAT
THE YOUTH IN FRANCE WENT ON
STRIKE, AND THEY HAD MASSIVE
DEDEMONSTRATIONS.
WHY?
BECAUSE THE RETIREMENT AGE
WAS BEING MOVED FROM, I
DON'T KNOW THE EXACT NUMBER,
BUT LET'S SAY FROM 57 TO 59
OR 60.
I[o!IW
SHIFT.
ArniwtqKÑw
TEENAGERS AND COLLEGE
STUDENTS WERE DEMONSTRATING
BECAUSE THEY THINK THAT IS
SO IMPORTANT.
DEAR, WHERETHEY?
GEORGE?
George: PAT, LET MESEE
IF I CAN INTEREST YOU IN A
NEW CAR.
WELL, A NEW SELF-DRIVING CAR
MADE ITS DEBUT IN THE LONE
STAR STATE.
IT WAS UNVEILED AT THE TEXAS
TRANSPORTATION FORUM IN
AUSTIN.
IT MAPS OUT ROADS AND
IDENTIFIES HAZARDS LIKE
OTHER CARS, PEDESTRIANS, AND
STREET LIGHTS.
THE CAR THEN CREATES A 3D
MAPPING SYSTEMpIT USES TO
GUIDEúITSELF.
TECHNOLOGY LIKEúúTHIS IS
STILL IN THE RESEARCH AND
DEVELOPMENT PHASE, BUT
RESEARCHERS HOPE IT COULD BE
ON THE ROADTHE NEXT
FIVEYEARS.
HEY,THE SOLAR FLARES
COME, FORGETABOUT THESE
SELF-DRIVING CARS.
EVERYTHING SHUTS DOWN.
Pat: BACK UP THE
HORSES, THAT'S WHERE WE
ARE.
THE SOLAR FLARES WILL NOT
AFFECT THE HORSE AND BUGGY.
Terry: COMING UP, THE
RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR
ARMS.
SOME SAY IT IS MORE THAN
JUST AN AMENDMENT, IT'S AN
INSURANCE POLICY.
*
Pat: GUNS, GUNS,
HUNTING, SHOOTING.
300MILLION GUNS IN AMERICA.
WE LIKE GUNS.
I WAS IN THE MILITARY.
I SCORED EXPERT WITH AN
AUTOMATIC RIFLE.
IT IS QUITE A MACHINE, THE
B.A. R.
I SHOT AN M-1 RIFLE.
AND THEY'VE GOT MORE
ADVANCED RIFLES NOW.
BUT I'VE BEEN ON THE PISTOL
RANGE AND YOU SHOOT SKEET
AND ALL OF THOSE THINGS.
IT IS KIND OF FUN.
SHOOTING IS A GOOD SPORT,
AND A LOT OF PEOPLE ENJOY
DOING IT.
BUT THE TRAGIC SHOOTING AT
AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN
CONNECTICUT QUICKLY LED TO
MORE CALLS FOR CONTROL OF
THESE GUNS.
BUT THE OPPONENTS JUST AS
QUICKLY POINTED TO THE
SECOND AMENDMENT, AND ITS
GUARANTEE TO THE RIGHT TO
BEAR ARMS.
WHAT DOES THE SECOND
AMENDMENT ACTUALLY MEAN?
JENNIFER WISHON TAKES A LOOK
AT THAT QUESTION.
Reporter: EMOTION FUELS
DEBATE.
THE PEOPLE WANTED, BY AN
OVERWHELMING MARGIN, TO BAN
THESE WEAPONS.
I WILL TELL YOU HERE
TODAY YOU WILL TAKE MY
ABILITY TO PROTECT MY
VICTORIA FROM MY COLD, DEAD
HANDS.
Reporter: POLITICALLY,
THE ISSUE CAN BE A MINE
FIELD.
THE CRIMINALS WON'T GO TO
PURCHASE THE GUNS, BECAUSE
THERE WILL BE A BACKGROUND
CHECK, WHICH WILL STOP THEM
FROM THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE.
YOU MISSED THAT POINT
COMPLETELY.
AND I THINK IT IS BASIC.
SENATOR, I THINK YOU
MISSED THE POINT.
Reporter: FOR THE ROOT
OF THESE OPINIONS, YOU MUST
GO BACK TO THE BEGINNING,
WHEN THE SECOND AMENDMENT TO
THE CONSTITUTION GAVE A
BIRTH RIGHT TO ALL
AMERICANS.
A WELL-REGULATED MALITIA,
THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO
KEEP AND BEAR ARMS SHALL NOT
BE INFRINGED."
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
DR. GEORGE MALCOLM HAS
WRITTEN SEVERAL BOOKS ABOUT
THE ORIGINS AND MEANING OF
THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE.
"THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE
TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS SHALL
NOT BE I INFRINGEED GIVES
THE PEOPLE THE RIGHT TO
PROTECT THEMSELVES.
ABOUT 90 MILLION-OWNED
FIREARMS, AND WHEN YOU HAVE
90 MILLION GUN OWNERS, THAT
Ia6vIbt(>@>Qñz
%ÑOnGxJxi STATE, THAT THIS IS.rLHíC?,
A FIGHT HE
WOULD
NOT
WANT TO
PICK.
Reporter: A FIGHT
BRITAIN PICKED WITH AMERICAN
COLONISTS SPARKED THE
RIGHTS.
THEY HAD TO ADDRESS ABUSES
BY THE BRITISH CRONE BEFORE
AMERICA WON THEIR
INDEPENDENCE.
THERE ARE PLENTY OF
CONTUSIONS IN THE WORLD WHO
HAVE WONDERFUL LISTS OF
RIGHTS, AND THE PEOPLE DON'T
ENJOY ANY OF THEM.
Reporter: STILL, AS
RECENTLY AT 2008, THERE WERE
QUESTIONS IF THE SECOND
AMENDMENT GUARANTEED NOT
JUST A MALITIA'S RIGHT, BUT
AN INDIVIDUAL'S RIGHT TO
BEAR ARMS.
IT RULED THAT THE SECOND
AMEND THE PROTECTS AN
INDIVIDUAL'S RIGHT TO
POSSESS A FIREARM,
UNCONNECTED WITH SERVICE AND
A MALITIA, AND TO USE THAT
ARM FOR TRADITIONALLY LAW
FULL PURPOSES, SUCH AS
SELF-DEFENSE IN A HOME.
WHEN SOMEONE BREAKS IN
WITH A WEAPON, YOU HAVE NOT
JUST A RIGHT, BUT AN
OBLIGATION, TO PROTECT NOT
JUST YOUR RIGHT, BUT THE
LIVES OF THE LITTLE ONES
THAT HAVE BEEN ENTRUSTED TO
YOU.
Reporter: AND THE COURT
RULED THAT THE SECOND
AMENDMENT ISN'T UNLIMITED,
LAWS FORBIDDING THE CARRYING
OF FIREARMS IN SENSITIVE
PLACES SUCH AS SCHOOLS, AND
REGULATION OF THE COMMERCIAL
SALE OF ARMS.
THEN THERE IS THE CURRENT
PUSH BY PRESIDENT OBAMA TO
BAN CERTAIN TYPES OF GUNS.
BUTTHE HELLER OPINION SAYS
POPULAR GUNS CAN'T BE --
FAITHFUL INHERITANCE TO
THE INDIVIDUAL IN THE
CORNERSTONE.
INCLUDING THE SECOND
AMENDMENT.
Reporter: JENNIFER
WISHON, CBN NEWS,
WASHINGTON.
Pat: THANKS, JENNIFER.
I'M JUST NOT SURE THAT
SETTLED THE DEBATE.
Terry: THAT DEBATE IS
NOT GOING TO BE SETTLED FOR
A WHILE.
Pat: WHAT DO YOU THINK
ABOUT IT?
Terry: I AM AN
CONSTITUTION FOLLOWERS.
Pat: A WISCONSIN
CONSTITUTION FOLLOWER.
Terry: I THINK WE
SHOULD ALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO
DO THAT.
I WILL SAY THIS TO YOU: IT'S
A LITTLE SCARY TO ME.
GUNS ARE TO BE RESPECTED
DEEPLY.
AND TO JUST HAVE THEM
SITTING AROUND THE HOUSE --
PARM YO --
Pat: YOU CAN'T DO IT.
IT IS JUST DANGEROUS.
I'LL TELL YOU ONE THING,
TERRY, AND WE NEED TO POINT
IT OUT.
JUDGES AND COURTS COME DOWN
VERY HARD ON DISCHARGING A
FIREARM.
YOU WOULD THINK THAT
SOMEBODY THAT RAPED THEIR
GRANDMOTHER OR SOMETHING.
I KNOW A MAN IN THIS AREA
WHO WENT BEFORE A JUDGE IN
AN ADJOINING JURISDICTION.
HE HAD BEEN FRANTIC BECAUSE
HIS WIFE HAD LEFT HIM, AND
SHE WAS IN HIS MOTHER'S
HOME, AND HE JUST WANTED TO
TALK TO HER.
HE HAD A GUN AND HE FIRED IT
IN THE CEILING.
NOBODY GOT HIT AND HE DIDN'T
DISCHARGE IT AT ANYBODY.
GUESS WHAT HIS PENALTY WAS?
10 YEARS IN PRISON.
10 YEARS.
NOW, THAT'S SERIOUS STUFF.
SO I WOULD CAUTION PEOPLE
ABOUT USING FIREARMS.
IT LOOKS SO GOOD.
YOU SEE THE MOVIES AND THEY
HAVE ALL OF THESE GUN
BATTLES, BUT, LET ME TELL
YOU.
YOU USE A FIREARM IN THE
COMMISSION OF A FELONY, AND
IT'S BAD NEWS.
AND IF YOU DISCHARGE A
FIREARM IN A PLACE, THE LAWS
ARE VERY STRICT, AND JUDGES
ARE VERY STRICT.
SO, YEAH, WE'VE GOT THE
RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR THEM,
BUT YOU TAKE THEM AND
DISCHARGE THEM -- ALSO, IF
ONE OF THOSE CROOKS COMES
INTO YOUR HOME AND YOU WANT
TO DEFEND YOUR HOME, YOU
BETTER SHOOT HIM IN YOUR
BEDROOM.
BECAUSE IF YOU JUST HAPPEN
TO SEE HIM WALKING DOWN THE
HALL IN YOUR LIVING ROOM,
AND YOU HAPPEN TO WING HIM
WITH A FIREARM, HE COULD
PROBABLY BRING A LAWSUIT
AGAINST YOU FOR MALICIOUS
WOUNDING.
I KNOW IT SOUNDS BIZARRE,
BUT THAT'S THE WAY IT IS.
YOU DON'T HAVE AN ABSOLUTE
RIGHT IN YOUR HOME TO SHOOT
SOMEBODY.
I JUST SAY THAT TO CAUTION
PEOPLE.
AND WE TALK ABOUT WHAT YOU
SHOULD DO WITH FIREARMS.
THE COURTS ARE VERY STRICT
ON THOSE WHO DISCHARGE
THEM.
Terry: YOU BETTER KNOW
YOUR RIGHTS, AND YOU BETTER
KNOW THE LAW.
Pat: YOU MAY KNOW YOUR
RIGHTS, AND YOU STILL GO TO
JAIL.
Terry: UP NEXT, SCOTT
ROSS HEADS TO THE STREETS OF
TEL AVIV, TO FIND OUT ABOUT
LIFE IN THE CROSS-HAIRS.
÷1AZRR7e%m1FOgFe>-+r/
vñlñ.zOp:OaDñ5pn
Pat: WELL, CHICAGO IS
IN THE HEARTLAND OF
AMERICA.
IMAGINE IF THE PEOPLE OF
CHICAGO LIVED UNDER THE
THREAT OF CONSTANT ROCKET
ATTACKS, OR AIR RAID SIRENS
PIERCED THROUGH THE EAR OF
AMERICA'S LARGEST CITIES.
FOR US, IT IS ALMOST
UNIMAGINABLE, BUT THAT IS
EXACTLY WHAT THE PEOPLE OF
ISRAEL HAVE TO DEAL WITH.
RECENTLY SCOTT ROSS WENT
THERE TO FIND OUT HOW THEY
FEEL ABOUT BEING SURROUNDED
BY ENEMIES, AND WHAT THEY'RE
GOING TO DO TO PROTECT
THEMSELVES.
Reporter: IRAN
THREATENS TO WIPE ISRAEL OFF
THE MAP.
HAMAS WANTS AN ISLAMIC
STATE, INSTEAD OF ISRAEL.
SOME 200,000 MISSILES ARE
POINTED AT THE JEWISH
STATE.
IN ISRAEL'S NEXT WAR, TEL
AVIV IS EXPECTED TO BE
GROUND ZERO.
ARE YOU APPREHENSIVE AT
ALL ABOUT WAR?
IT DEPENDS WHAT WAR.
FOR EXAMPLE, IRAN OR
PALESTINIAN.
IT IS JUST ABOUT ALL OF THE
ARAB NATIONS ATTACKING US?
OR WHAT KIND OF WAR ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?
Reporter: WELL, THAT'S
INTERESTING BECAUSE YOU'RE
ASKING ME A GOOD QUESTION,
BUT YOU ARE SURROUNDED BY
ENEMIES, RIGHT?
YES.
WE CAN SAY THAT.
Reporter: DO YOU GET
ANXIOUS ABOUT THAT?
ACTUALLY, NO.
IN ISRAEL, WE HAVE A VERY
SECURITY KIND OF FEELING IN
EVERY DAY LIFE.
Reporter: I WENT TO THE
STREETS IN ISRAEL'S SECOND
LARGEST CITY TO ASK TEL AVIV
RESIDENTS IF THEY'RE AFRAID
AND IF THEY TRUST GOD TO
PROTECT THEM.
I MEAN, IF THERE WERE ROCKET
ATTACKS OR SCUDS, YOU HAVE
NO FEAR OF THAT?
I THINK MAYBE FOR PEOPLE
WHO LIVE IN TEL AVIV,
THEY'RE TRYING NOT TO DEAL
WITH THAT.
Reporter: IS IT
DENIAL?
I THINK IT IS SOMETIMES.
ILIKE THE LAST
PARTY DANCE ON THE TITANIC
BECAUSE PEOPLE DON'T
UNDERSTAND WHAT'S UP AHEAD.
YOU JUST HAVE TO SMILE AND
KEEP ON.
Reporter: SO WHEN YOU
HEAR YOUR ENEMIES ARE
SURROUNDING ISRAEL AND SAID
THEY'RE GOING TO DESTROY
ISRAEL, HOW DO YOU FEEL
ABOUT THAT?
IT HURTS ME TO KNOW THAT
SOMEONE OUT THERE WANTS TO
KILL ME BECAUSE I THINK I'M
A GOOD PERSON.
I BELIEVE I DO A LOT OF GOOD
THINGS EVERY DAY.
AND I WOULD LIKE TO LIVE IN
PEACE WITH ALL OF THE PEOPLE
AROUND ME.
WAS BORN IN ISRAEL.
AND EVERY SEVEN YEARS IT IS
A WAR.
IT IS GOING TO BE A WAR,
IT'S GOING TO BE A WAR.
Reporter: SURPRISINGLY,
IN NOVEMBER 201 2012 TEL
AVIV RESIDENTS HEARD AIR
RAID SIRENS FOR THE FIRST
TIME IN 20 YEARS.
HAMAS ROCKETS MADE AT LEAST
ONE DIRECT HIT IN A SOUTHERN
SUBURB.
DO YOU BELIEVE IN GOD?
YES.
Reporter: YOU DO?
SURE.
Reporter: WHAT DO YOU
BELIEVE?
AFTER 2,000 YEARS AGO, WE
COME BACK TO ISRAEL.
AND WITH THE HELP OF GOD,
WE'RE GOING TO STAY.
Reporter: IN 2006,
HEZBOLLAH LAUNCHED MORE THAN
4,000 MISSILES AT ISRAEL'S
CIVILIANS DURING THE 34-DAY
SECOND LEBANON WAR.
THAT PROMPTED MILITARY
LEADERS TO RE-THINK THEIR
STRATEGY FOR PROTECTING THE
POPULATION.
AFTER THE SECOND LEBANON
WAR, ONE OF THE MOST
IMPORTANT CONCLUSIONS WAS TO
PREPARE THE POPULATION, AND
PREPARING THEM IS AN ONGOING
PROCESS.
Reporter: I SAT DOWN
WITH FELIX SOFAIR, THE
FORMER HEAD OF ISRAEL'S
DEFENSE.
YOU HAVE A WORD THAT YOU
USE, "RESILIENCE."
WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THAT?
RESILIENCE IS THE ABILITY
OF THE POPULATION TO COPE
WITH THE DISASTER.
Reporter: DO YOU MEAN
PSYCHOLOGICAL ORIFIC OR
PHYSICALLY OR WHAT?
TO PREPARE YOURSELF.
ALL OF THIS IS PART OF THE
RESELLIANS.qvh=Dm2ni]/> RESILIENCE.
Reporter:á?
DO BELIEVE IN
GOD
TAKEu
PREPARATION SERIOUSLY.
MORE THAN HALF THE
POPULATION HAS GAS MASKS,
AND EVERY HOME BUILT AFTER
1991 MUST HAVE ITS OWN BOMB
SHELTER.
I VISITED AHOFA AND SALOMI
AND THEIR FOUR CHILDREN.
THEY HELPED ME UNDERSTAND
HOW THEIR FAMILY COPES WITH
THE SITUATION.
WE HAVE TO CONTINUE TO
LIVE OUR LIFE.
WE BELIEVE IN ANY CASE AND
IN ANY PLACE AND IN ANY
SITUATION, WE WILL BE
PROTECTED BECAUSE GOD
PROMISED THAT.
Reporter: THEY SHOWED
ME THE PUBLIC SHELTER IN
THEIR BUILDING, WHERE THEY
STORE SOME SUPPLIES.
AND IN THEIR KITCHEN, THE
FAMILY GAS MASKS.
I WAS READING ONE OF THE
PROMISES FROM ONE OF YOUR
PROPHETS ISAIAH, WHO SAID
"ALL THOSE AGAINST ISRAEL
WILL BE ASHAMED AND
DISGRACED AND THAT THEY WILL
BE AS NOTHING, AND THE ENEMY
SHALL PERISH."
SO WHEN YOU READ VERSES LIKE
THAT, IS THAT WHAT YOU TAKE
YOUR COMFORT IN?
GOD DOESN'T WANT THAT
ANYONE WILL DIE LIKE THIS
BECAUSE GOD LOVES EVERYONE.
AND HE DOESN'T WANT JUST TO
DESTROY THEM BECAUSE THEY
ARE BAD.
GOD WANTS THEM TO DO A
REPENTANCE.
Reporter: A VERY
PRACTICAL QUESTION IN THIS
REGARD: HOW DO YOU LOVE YOUR
ENEMY?
WE'RE PRAYING FOR THEM.
IT IS NOT EASY.
IT IS NOT EASY TO PRAY FOR
THOSE WHO MAKE YOU PAIN OR
THOSE WHO FRIGHTEN YOU, OR
ENEMIES, BUT WE'RE PRAYING
FOR THEM.
Pat: EXTRAORDINARY.
GOOD WORK, SCOTT.
SCOTT IS A GREAT REPORTER.
WE NEED MORE OF SCOTT ON THE
AIR.
I'M A FAN OF SCOTT.
Terry: WE HEAR SO MUCH
ABOUT ISRAEL AND WE TALK TO
ISRAELI PEOPLE, AND IT IS
WONDERFUL TO HEAR FROM THE
PEOPLE OF ISRAEL.
Pat: I TALKED TO SOME
OF THE PEOPLE ON THE STREET,
AND SOME OF THE ANSWERS WERE
KIND OF LIKE WHO CARES.
WHY SHOULD WE FIGHT FOR
THESE THINGS.
THAT FAMILY WAS
EXTRAORDINARY.
THEIR ATTITUDE IS --
Terry: THE PEOPLE GET
WEARY, DON'T YOU THINK?
THIS GOES ON AND ON AND
ON --
Pat: ABSOLUTELY.
WE HAD A STATION UP IN
METULA, AND WE'VE BEEN ALL
OVER THE PLACE, AND THEY'RE
BOMBED ALL OF THE TIME.
I HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF BEING
THERE DURING THAT WAR THEY
TALKED ABOUT, WHEN THOSE
ROCKETS WERE FALLING DOWN.
AND IT WAS SOMETHING.
BUT I KIND OF -- IT GETS MY
ADRENALIN GOING.
I GET A KICK OUT OF IT.
BUT MOST PEOPLE DON'T
EXACTLY ENJOY HAVING BOMBS
THROWING AT THEM.
Terry: NO.
A ROCKET WOULD NOT MAKE MY
DAY.
Pat: BUT IN THE NORTH,
UP IN MATULLA, EVERY DAY
THERE WOULD BE AN AIR RAID,
AND THE LITTLE KIDS WOULD
HAVE TO RUN INTO THE
SHELTER.
BEFORE LONG, IT GETS TO THEM
PSYCHOLOGICALLY.
Terry: OF COURSE, THAT
EVERY HOME SHOULD HAVE A
BOMB SHELTER.
Pat: WHAT THEY SAID, IT
IS GOING TO BE THE
PROTECTION OF THE LORD THAT
DOES IT.
Terry: COMING UP LATER,
PAT IS GOING TO ANSWER SOME
OF YOUR E-MAIL QUESTIONS.
JESSE SAYS, "I'VE BEEN
REJECTED BY A FEW CHURCHES
BECAUSE I REFUSED TO HAVE MY
CHILDREN BAPTIZED RIGHT
AFTER THEY WERE BORN."
SHE WANTS TO KNOW DOES THE
BIBLE EVEN TALK ABOUT
BAPTISM?
STAY TUNED FOR THE LATEST
INSTALLMENT OF "BRING IT
ON."
THAT'S NEXT.
George: AND WELCOME
BACK TO "THE 700 CLUB."
IDENTITY THEFT IS ON THE
RISE AGAIN.
A STUDY BY JOB LINK STRATEGY
AND RESEARCH FOUND OVER
12 MILLION AMERICANS WERE
VICTIMIZED LAST YEAR ALONE.
THAT TRANSLATES INTO
SLIGHTLY MORE THAN ONE IN 20
CONSUMERS.
THE INCREASE IS ATTRIBUTED
TO A JUMP IN THE MORE
SERIOUS FORMS OF I.D. THEFT,
LIKE NEW ACCOUNT FRAUD.
A RECORD 13.9 MILLION
VICTIMS WERE SET BACK IN
2009.
A CLOSED ABORTION CLINIC IN
BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA, HAS
BEEN DENIED THEIR BID TO
REOPEN.
THE LIFE LEGAL DEFENSE
FOUNDATION SAYS THE NEW
WOMEN, ALL WOMEN CLINIC
STANDS ACCUSED OF INJURING
PATIEV;7o=ççU?")/VtF/J2"6okúMkii AND COBç÷Iñú6,3
VIOLATIONS.
THAT LED
TO
A 76 PAGE REPORT
BY THE ALABAMA DEPARTMENT OF
PUBLIC HEALTH.
THE CLINIC OWNER'S LICENSE
WAS REVOKED IN MAY 2012.
SHE THEN TRIED TO TRANSFER
THE CLINIC TO A FRIEND USING
SEVERAL DIFFERENT METHODS,
BUT THE TWO FAILED TO COMPLY
WITH REQUIREMENTS FROM THE
STATE, SO ALABAMA IS
REJECTING THEIR ATTEMPT TO
REOPEN.
WELL, AS ALWAYS, YOU CAN 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"
RIGHT AFTER THIS.
Terry: TIME TO ANSWER
YOUR E-MAIL QUESTIONS.
PAT, THE FIRST ONE IS FROM
JESSE, WHO SAYS, "I'VE BEEN
REJECTED BY A FEW DIFFERENT
CHURCHES BECAUSE I REFUSED
TO HAVE MY CHILDREN BAPTIZED
RIGHT AFTER THEY WERE BORN.
I'VE SEEN SOME CHURCHES HOLD
DEDICATION CEREMONIES FOR
NEWBORNS, AND I WOULD LIKE
TO GO THIS ROUTE.
IS THAT WRONG?
DOES THE BIBLE TALK ABOUT
INFANT BAPTISM, AND IF SO,
WHERE?"
Pat: THE ONLY THING I
KNOW OF IN THE BIBLE IS THE
BELIEVER'S BAPTISM, WHICH IS
BEING BURIED WITH CHRIST.
THERE IS NOTHING IN THERE
ABOUT SPRINKLING.
IN THE EARLY CHURCH, AS FAR
AS I CAN TELL, THAT WAS THE
ONLY FORM OF BAPTISM.
WHERE DID THE INFANT CONCEPT
COME FROM?
I WON'T GO INTO GREAT
DETAIL, BUT THE THOUGHT IS
PEOPLE ARE BORN WITH WHAT IS
CALLED ORIGINAL SIN.
AND THEY NEEDED TO BE
BAPTIZED IN ORDER TO COME
INTO THE GRACE OF GOD SO
THAT IF THEY DIED, THEY
WOULD DIE IN GRACE.
AND WHEN I ASKED THAT IT'S
SUPPOSED TO BE FAITH, AND
THE ANSWER IS THAT IT IS THE
FAITH OF THE PARENTS IN THE
SACRAMENT OF BAPTISM.
NOW, I DON'T AGREE WITH
THAT.
I'M A BAPTIST.
SO YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A
CHURCH THAT WILL TAKE YOU IN
AND WELCOME YOUR BELIEFS.
THE BAPTIS BAPTISTS, THAT'S
WHAT THEY BELIEVE.
PENT COASTALPENTECOSTAL
CHURCHES, MOST OF THE
CHURCHES, ALL SHARE THAT.
THE CATHOLIC CHURCH BELIEVES
IN INFANT BAPTISM.
THERE ARE SOME, YOU'RE
RIGHT, THEY HAVE A
DEDICATION.
THEY DEDICATE THE CHILD TO
THE LORD, AND LATER ON HE
CAN MAKE THE DECISION ON HIS
OWN TO GET BAPTIZED.
THERE ARE PLENTY OF CHURCHES
THAT WILL WELCOME YOU WITH
OPEN ARMS.
Terry: MATTHEW SAYS, "I
RECENTLY BECAME A
CHRISTIAN.
I WANT TO QUIT USING
SMOKELESS TOBACCO, BUT I'M
HAVING SUCH A HARD TIME.
HOW DO I STOP?
CAN GOD TAKE THIS ADDICTION
AWAY FROM ME?"
Pat: THE BEST WAY TO
STOP IT IS TO LOOK IN THE
MIRROR.
THE NASTY TEETH, AND THE
TOBACCO -- I THINK THAT'S
WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.
HOW DO YOU STOP AN
ADDICTION?
I'VE SAID THIS SEVERAL
TIMES, AND I'LL SAY IT
AGAIN, 21 DAYS.
21 DAYS.
YOU DON'T USE THAT STUFF FOR
21 DAYS.
I USED TO SMOKE A PACK AND A
HALF OF CIGARETTES EVERY
DAY, EVERY DAY.
I SAW WHAT IT DID TO
PEOPLE'S LUNGS.
I CAME OUT OF AN EVIDENCE
CLASS IN LAW SCHOOL, AND
THREW DOWN THE CIGARETTE AND
GROUNDED IT ON THE GROUND,
AND SAID THAT'S THE LAST
CIGARETTE I'LL EVER SMOKE.
IT WAS A DIFFICULT TIME FOR
21 DAYS.
AND THEN SOMETHING SHIFTED.
AND INSTEAD OF DESIRING THE
THINGS, I COULDN'T STAND
THEM.
THEY WERE REPULSIVE TO ME.
NOTHING WORSE THAN WET
CIGARETTE BUTTS.
Terry: I HAD THE SAME
THING HAPPEN TO ME.
I USED TO SMOKE, AND NOW I'M
ALLERGIC TO CIGARETTE
SMOKE.
Pat: IT'S CRAZY.
IT DOESN'T TAKE LONG.
EVERY DAY, TODAY I'M NOT
GOING TO SMOKE OR CHEW OR
WHATEVER YOUR DOING.
THE NEXT DAY, TODAY I'M NOT
GOING TO DO IT.
AND AFTER 21 DAYS, YOU KNOW,
YOU'RE HOME FREE.
Terry: IT OCCURS TO ME
IT MAY HELP TO CHEW GUM
BECAUSE SOMETIMES IT IS JUST
THAT CHEWING PROCESS.
THIS IS REILLY WHO SAYS, "I
HAVE A REALLY CLOSE FRIEND
THAT BELIEVES IN MORE THANqan'ib7
ONE GOD.
I THINK SHE IS HINDU, BUT
I'M NOT CERTAIN.
HOW DO I HELP HER REALIZE
THERE IS ONLY&oo#l2D n
HER TO BECOME A
CHRISTIAN.
WHAT SHOULD I DO?"
Pat: REILLY, I SUSPECT
THE FIRST THING YOU DO IS
TELL HER THERE IS ONLY ONE
GOD.
IF SHE BELIEVES IN ONE OF
THE TOP FIGURES IN THE HINDU
PANTHEON, YOU SAY I
REPRESENT THE GOD WHO IS
ABOVE THAT ONE.
AND HE IS ET CREATO IS THE
CREATOR OF EVERYTHING.
AND THESE OTHERS ARE MERELY
CREATIONS, AND I THINK
THEY'RE DEMONIC, BUT
WHATEVER.
AND THEN ASK HER TO PRAY TO
JESUS, AND WATCH JESUS.
THE LORD HAS GOT TO COME IN
AND INTERVENE IN A SITUATION
LIKE THAT, AND HE WILL.
IF SOMEBODY IS SINCERELY
SEEKING GOD, GOD HIMSELF
WILL APPEAR TO THEM.
JESUS IS APPEARING TO PEOPLE
ALL OVER THE MIDDLE EAST, TO
MUSLIMS AND PEOPLE IN ISLAM,
AND I DARE SAY THE HINDUS,
TOO.
ANYBODY WHO IS SINCERELY
SEEKING GOD, GOD WILL REVEAL
HIMSELF.
SO THE PRAYER IS, JESUS, IF
YOU ARE GOD, REVEAL YOURSELF
TO ME AND I WILL SERVE YOU.
LET HER PRAY THAT.
ALL RIGHT.
Terry: THIS IS KATRINA,
WHO SAYS, "I WAS LISTENING
TO A PASTOR SPEAK ON THE
RADIO.
HE SAID THAT THE BOOK OF
REVELATION STATES THAT GOD
HAS ALREADY PICKED THE
PEOPLE WHO ARE GOING TO BE
SAVED.
DOES THIS MEAN IF WE'RE NOT
CHOSEN WE DON'T HAVE A
CHANCE?
WILL YOU PLEASE CLEAR THIS
UP FOR ME?
NOW I'M WORRIED AND
CONFUSED."
Pat: IT'S AMAZING, WE
HAVE NO LAW IN AMERICA THAT
WILL KEEP SCREWBALLS OFF THE
RADIO.
SO PEOPLE CAN SAY ANYTHING
THEY WANT TO.
Terry: I THINK THERE IS
A LOT OF CONFUSION, THOUGH,
ABOUT THAT DOCTRINE OF
ELECTION, WHAT DOES THAT
MEAN AND HOW DO YOU TAKE
THAT?
Pat: YOU'RE EXACTLY
RIGHT.
THAT WAS EXTREME CALVINISM.
ONLY THE ELECTED ARE GOING
TO BE SAVED.
HERE IS WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS,
IT ISN'T GOD'S WILL THAT ANY
SHOULD PERISH, BUT THAT ALL
SHOULD COME TO THE KNOWLEDGE
OF THE TRUTH.
THAT'S WHAT HE SAYS.
AND JESUS CHRIST CAME TO
SEEK AND TO SAVE THAT WHICH
IS LOST.
SO THE HEART OF GOD IS
ALWAYS REACHING OUT TO THE
LOST, TO THOSE WHO DON'T
KNOW HIM.
IT ISN'T HIS WILL THAT ANY
SHOULD PERISH, BUT ALL
SHOULD COME TO THE KNOWLEDGE
OF THE TRUTH.
SO TO SAY HE HAS ELECTED A
SMALL GROUP AND THEY'RE THE
ONLY ONES?
YOU CAN SEE HOW THAT CHILLS
EVANGELISM, AND YOUR QUEST,
WHAT IF I'M NOT AMONG THE
ELECT.
YOU'RE ELECT IF YOU SAY YES
TO JESUS.
THAT'S WHAT DETERMINES IT.
NOW, WHAT HAPPENS IN TERMS
OF GOD'S FOREKNOWLEDGE AND
ALL OF THAT -- THAT REALLY
SHOULDN'T CONCERN YOU.
WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS THAT
GOD LOVES YOU AND HE WANTS
YOU TO BE SAVED.
AND HE WANTS EVERYBODY TO BE
SAVED.
I WAS PRAYING, AND I BELIEVE
THE LORD -- I SAID, GOD,
WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU, AND HE
SAID, I HAVE MADE HEAVEN
VERY LARGE, AND THERE IS
ROOM FOR MANY, MANY PEOPLE.
AND HE SAID YOUR JOB IS TO
BRING AS MANY OF THEM IN AS
POSSIBLE.
SO HE PUTS PEOPLE LIKE ME
AND OTHERS OUT THERE TO
PREACH THE WORD.
AND IT IS THE PREACHING OF
THE GOSPEL THAT BRINGS
PEOPLE TO SALVATION.
AND TO SAY, WELL, I'M SORRY,
HE'S GOT A NUMBER, AND YOU
LIVE IN BURBANK OR
SOMETHING, AND THERE CAN
ONLY BE 5,000 OF YOU SAVED,
AND THE REST OF YOU ARE
OUT.
THERE WAS A CHURCH THAT
BELIEVED THAT, 144,000.
AND AFTER THEY GOT MORE THAN
144,000, THEN THEY HAD TO
COME UP WITH ANOTHER
DOCTRINE.
THEY BLEW THE COUNT.
GOD HAS A BIG HEAVEN, A BIG
HEAVEN AND A BIG HEART.
AND HE WANTS PEOPLE SAVED.
THAT'S WHAT YOU NEED TO
KNOW.
Terry: WE THANK YOU FOR
YOUR QUESTIONS.
WE DO LOVE HEARING FROM
YOU.
AND WE'LL ANSWER SOME MORE
TOMORROW.
STILL AHEAD, A 3 A.M. WAKEUP
FROM A MAN WHO WAS BANGING
AT THE DOOR AND HOLDING A
BLOODY KNIFE.
HE APPARENTLY STABBED
SOMEBODY.
NO, NO, NO.
AND HE WANTED ME TO GIVE
HIM A RIDE OUT OF TOWN.
Terry: GET THE REST OF
THE STORY, NEXT.
N=
Terry: THROUGHOUT HER
ENTIRE LIFE, JULIE SUFFERED
FROM THINGS THAT NO ONE
SHOULD HAVE TO GO THROUGH.
SHE WAS ABUSED, MOLESTED,
AND EVEN RAISED HER KIDS ON
THE STREETS.
JULIE FREELY ADMITS THAT SHE
WAS BROKEN.
SHE JUST NEEDED THE RIGHT
PERSON TO HELP HER PICK UP
THE PIECES.
DON'T TOUCH ME!
A MAN GOES TO WORK, A MAN
COMES HOME, A MAN DRINKS.
MAN AND WOMAN FIGHT.
I MEAN, THERE WAS A LOT OF
FIGHTING THAT WE SAW.
WHEN WE WERE CHILDREN.
EVERY WEEKEND WE WOULD GO
CAMPING.
SOMETIMES THE ADULTS WOULD
GO INTO TOWN AND LEAVE US
WITH, YOU KNOW, THE FAMILIES
THAT LIVE CLOSER.
IT WAS THEIR OLDER TEENAGED
SON THAT MOLESTED ME WHEN I
WAS ABOUT FOUR OR FIVE.
IT CONTINUED.
AND WHAT HE HAD SAID TO GET
ME NOT TO TELL WAS, YOU KNOW
HOW YOUR DAD IS.
IF HE FINDS OUT, DO YOU KNOW
WHAT HE IS GOING TO DO TO
YOU?
THAT'S WHAT HE TOLD ME.
MY PARENTS GOT DIVORCED WHEN
I WAS ABOUT EIGHT.
AT ABOUT NINE I STARTED
SMOKING CIGARETTES, AND BY
11 I WAS DABBLING IN DRUGS.
I JUST SPIRALLED DOWN, YOU
KNOW.
I WAS DRINKING AND DOING
ACID.
I TRIED CRYSTAL METH AND
COKE.
I JUST -- IN MY MIND, I
WOULD LIVE TO DIE.
I JUST DIDN'T CARE.
I JUST SLICED MYSELF JUST SO
I HURT SO BAD.
BECAUSE OF THE MOLESTATION
WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, I JUST
DIDN'T FEEL WORTHY IN A
SENSE.
Reporter: JULIE RAN TO
THE STREETS, BROKEN.
SHE ENDED UP WITH TWO KIDS
FROM FAILED RELATIONSHIPS.
I ENDED UP HOMELESS.
LOST ALL MY STUFF.
ENDED UP ON THE STREETS WITH
THE TWO KIDS.
AND DURING THAT TIME, I
MEAN, I WAS DRINKING AND
DOING WHATEVER.
I JUST DIDN'T CARE.
I JUST THOUGHT, IF I DIE,
THE KIDS WOULD BE SO MUCH
BETTER.
Reporter: ON THE EDGE
OF SUICIDE, A MAN ON THE
STREET HANDED JULIE A
BIBLE.
WHEN WE WERE YOUNGER, WE
WENT TO CATHOLIC CHURCH.
SO WE WEREN'T ALLOWED TO
HAVE BIBLES.
SO HERE IS MY FIRST BIBLE.
I WAS, LIKE, WOW, THIS IS
GREAT.
AND EVENTUALLY READING THE
WORD, I CAME TO THIS POINT
WHERE I WAS GOING TO DIE OR
I WAS GOING TO LIVE.
AND FROM READING THE BIBLE,
I MADE A DECISION TO LIVE.
MY SECOND CHILD, SHE WOKE ME
UP AND SHE SAID, GOD TALKED
TO ME.
I NEVER DISCUSSED GOD WITH
HER.
AND SHE SAYS, HE TALKED TO
ME.
AND MAMA, HE SAYS EVERYTHING
IS GOING TO BE ALL RIGHT.
AND (SOBBING) THAT WAS THE
POINT.
WHEN YOU BEAT YOURSELF UP SO
MUCH, AND YOU HAVE THIS
LITTLE ONE TELLING YOU
THAT -- I WAS LOOKING FOR
HELP, AND THAT JUST MEANT A
LOT.
I KIND OF GOT IT TOGETHER.
AND I GOT OFF THE STREETS.
AND I WAS A SINGLE MOM FOR
SO LONG, AND I GUESS I WAS
SEEKING OUT THIS FATHER
FIGURE FOR THE KIDS.
IN MY MIND, I JUST FELT LIKE
THEY WERE MISSING SOMETHING,
LIKE I COULDN'T DO ENOUGH.
I FELT I NEEDED A
PROTECTOR.
I GUESS THAT MAKES SENSE.
Reporter: WANTING A
PROTECTOR, JULIE MARRIED AND
DELIVERED HER THIRD CHILD.
THE MAN BECAME A MONSTER.
AND HER REALITY BECAME A
NIGHTMARE.
HE PUSHED ME AWAY FROM
CHRISTIANITY -- I ALLOWED
HIM TO.
HE DESTROYED MY FAMILY.
HE WAS SO ABUSIVE.
I FELT LIKE A PRISONER.
ME AND THE KIDS WERE
SLEEPING IN MY ROOM.
AND HE HAD JUST GONE OFF.
AND HE WAS LEAVING AGAIN.
AND WE WERE SCARED.
AND WE WERE ALL HUDDLED UP
IN MY BEDROOM.
AND HE COMES BANGING ON THE
HOUSE.
AND THE KIDS SAY, DON'T
ANSWER IT.
DON'T ANSWER IT.
AND I'M, LIKE, I HAVE TO.
HE IS NOT GOING TO GO AWAY.
I ANSWER THE DOOR, AND HE
HAS GOT A KNIFE IN HIS
HANDS, AND IT'S GOT BLOOD,
AND APPARENTLY HE HAD JUST
STABBED SOMEBODY, AND HE
WANTED ME TO GIVE HIM A RIDE
OUT OF TOWN.
AND I DIDN'T WANT TO.
NO, NO, NO!
AND I STARTED DRIVING,
AND HE WAS IN AND OUT.
AND HE WOULD COME TO, WAKE
UP, AND HE WOULD(vJe/rá
ANGRY.paá7)%ZcçYÑZ.'
AND I'M LIO, LIKE, PLEASE,
JUST PUT THE GUN DOWN -- PUT
THE KNIFE DOWN.
GOD, IN MY HEAD -- GOD,
PLEASE PROTECT US.
I MADE IT PROBABLY ABOUT 30
MINUTES OUT OF TOWN, AND I
FINALLY WAS ABLE TO SAY,
LISTEN, I'M ALMOST OUT OF
GAS.
I'VE GOT TO GET BACK TO THE
KIDS.
YOU KNOW THEY'RE PROBABLY
SCARED.
HE DIDN'T CARE ABOUT ANY OF
THAT.
HE GOT OUT OF THE CAR, AND I
JUST STARTED CRYING.
I'M DRIVING AS FAST AS I
CAN.
I'M LOOKING E IN MY REAR
REAR-VIEW MIRROR, COULD HE
STILL BE BEHIND ME.
I GOT A CALL IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE NIGHT, THAT HE STOLE
A CAR, WAS DRIVING 80 MILES
PER HOUR, HIT A TREE AND
DIED.
IT WAS ME OR HIM, AND I'M
GLAD I'M HERE FOR MY
BABIES.
Reporter: JULIE STARTED
TO PICK UP THE PIECES OF HER
LIFE.
AND YEARS LATER, SHE MET
BRIAN.
I SAW IN HIM THE COMMON
DESIRE TO HAVE A GOOD LIFE
AND TO HAVE A FAMILY, AND
EVERYTHING I DREAMED ABOUT
AND THAT I SOUGHT AFTER IN
THE WRONG PEOPLE.
Reporter: BOTH BRIAN
AND JULIE WANTED TO START
THEIR FAMILY, SO THEY
MARRIED.
I FOUND A BIBLE IN THE
HOUSE, AND I STARTED PICKING
IT UP AND STARTED READING
IT.
I THINK I WAS READING ALMOST
DAILY, AND I WAS JUST TRYING
TO GET THE WORD IN.
WE DECIDED TO DRIVE DOWN TO
TENNESSEE TO VISIT MY DAD
AND MY FAMILY.
WE WENT TO CHURCH.
AND WHEN WE WENT THERE, IT
FELT LIKE THE SERMON WAS
SPEAKING TO US.
WE BOTH JUST WANTED TO GET
UP AND GIVE OUR LIVES, BUT
WE WERE BOTH SO NERVOUS AND
SCARED BECAUSE IT WAS ALL
NEW AGAIN.
Reporter: MOVED BY THE
HOLY SPIRIT, JULIE AND BRIAN
RETURNED TO THAT CHURCH.
AND, BOY, AS SOON AS WE
GOT TO CHURCH, WE BOTH HAD
THE CALLING.
WE WENT UP AT THE SAME TIME,
WHICH IS PRETTY AMAZING, AND
GAVE OUR LIVES TO THE LORD
AND STARTED OVER.
GOING THROUGH WHAT I DID,
IT'S LIKE YOU ALWAYS HAVE
THIS WEIGHT ON YOUR BACK.
AND YOUR LIFE IS
RESTRICTED.
YOU JUST HAVE NO FREEDOM.
AND I CAN TELL YOU WHEN I
MADE THE DECISION THAT
LITERALLY, PHYSICALLY, THIS
PEACE CAME OVER ME.
IT'S AMAZING.
I THANK GOD THAT I CAN
LOVE.
Terry: I THINK IT WAS
C.S. LEWIS WHO CALLED THE
HOLY SPIRIT THE HOUND OF
HEAVEN.
THE ONE WHO KEEPS COMING,
WHO KEEPS PRESSING, WHO
KEEPS COMING AFTER US.
PAT SAID EARLIER THAT IT IS
NOT GOD'S WILL THAT ANYONE
SHOULD PER RISEN -- PERISH,
BUT ALL SHOULD COME TO THE
SAVING KNOWLEDGE OF WHO HE
IS, OF HIS GREAT LOVE, OF
HIS FORGIVENESS.
ONE OF THE GREAT THINGS I
LOVE ABOUT JULIE'S STORY IS
YOU SEE GOD TIME AND TIME
AGAIN COMING AFTER HER,
COMING AFTER HER.
SOMETIMES WHEN BAD THINGS
HAVE HAPPENED TO US, WHEN WE
HAVE COME FROM DIFFICULT
PLACES IN OUR LIVES, IT IS
HARD TO RECEIVE THE LOVE OF
GOD.
IT IS HARD TO UNDERSTAND HOW
MUCH HE LOVES US.
IT IS HARD TO UNDERSTAND WE
REALLY CAN BE HEALED AND SET
FREE FROM OUR PAST.
NOW, I DON'T KNOW WHERE
YOU'RE AT TODAY, BUT MAYBE
THERE ARE THINGS IN YOUR
BACKGROUND, IN YOUR LIFE, IN
YOUR TEACHING THAT ARE
KEEPING YOU FROM KNOWING
GOD.
HE WANTS TO KNOW YOU.
THE HOUND OF HEAVEN TODAY IS
KNOCKING, KNOCKING ON YOUR
DOOR.
SAYING COME, WHO SO FAR WILL
COME, ANYONE IS WELCOME TO
COME INTO THE PRESENCE OF
GOD AND TO ASK HIS
FORGIVENESS.
THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED.
AS JULIE READ THE WORD OF
GOD, AND AS GOD PURSUED HER
AND SHE FELT THAT LOVE, SHE
SAID, I WANT TO KNOW HIM.
AND THEN WHAT DID SHE DO?
SHE GOT BEFORE HIM HOW MANY
BLEHUMBLY, AND SHE SAID,
GOD, I NEED YOU.
EVERY ONE OF US IS IN THE
SAME POSITION.
SOMETIMES PEOPLE THINK IF
THEY HAVEN'T GONE THROUGH
SOMETHING TRAGIC OR IF THEY
HAVEN'T DONE SOMETHING
HORRIBLE, THAT THEY DON'T
NEED THE SAME KIND OF
FORGIVENESS.
THE BIBLE SAYS EVERY ONE OF
US HAVE SINNED AND FALLEN
SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD.
WE NEED A SAVIOR, ONE WHO
SAVES US FROM OUR OWN SIN,
AND THAT ONE IS JESUS.
HE DIED FOR YOU AND HE DIED
FOR ME.
AND TODAY IT IS THE SPIRIT
OF GOD SPEAKING TO YOUR
HEART SAYING COME, COME
HOME.
LET ME LOVE YOU.
LET ME FORGIVE YOU.
LET ME TEACH YOU.
LET ME SHOW YOU.
LET ME FILL YOU.
LET ME GIVE YOU THE LIFE YOU
WERE DESIGNED TO HAVE.
YOU CAN BEGIN THAT JOURNEY
RIGHT NOW BY SAYING YES TO
GOD.
JUST HUMBLE YOURSELF BEFORE
HIM.
ASK HIM TO FORGIVE YOU FOR
YOUR SINS.
SAY, JESUS, I WANT TO KNOW
YOU.
I WANT YOU TO BE THE SAVIOR
OF MY SOUL.
THE LOVER OF MY SOUL.
THE ONE WHO REDEEMS ME FROM
MYSELF AND ALL THAT HAS
HAPPENED IN MY LIFE.
AND THEN I WANT TO LIVE FOR
YOU.
SO FILLá÷t
SPIRIT.
CHANGE THE WAY I THINK.
GIVE ME A NEW BEGINNING, A@áQáR@
THAT'S GOD'S WILL FOR YOU?
WILL YOU SAY YES TO IT?
IF YOU WOULD LIKE SOMEONE TO
PRAY WITH YOU, YOU CAN CALL
THE TOLL-FREE NUMBER YOU'RE
GOING TO SEE COME UP ON YOUR
SCREEN.
1-800-759-0700.
JUST CALL AND SAY, I WANT TO
KNOW JESUS IN MY HEART AND
LIFE.
THEY WOULD LOVE TO PRAY WITH
YOU.
PAT?
Pat: WELL, FOLKS, YOU
CAN CALL, AS TERRY HAS BEEN
TELLING YOU.
IT'S 1-800-759-0700.
WELL, THAT'S ALL THE TIME
WE'VE GOT FOR TODAY'S
PROGRAM.
TOMORROW, PUT AN END TO
RESTLESS NIGHTS.
WE'LL SHOW YOU HOW TO GET
THE BEST SLEEP OF YOUR
LIFE.
WOW!
AND TODAY WE LEAVE YOU WITH
THESE WORDS FROM MATTHEW:
"SEEK FIRST HIS KINGDOM AND
HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, AND ALL
OF THESE THINGS WILL BE
GIVEN TO YOU AS WELL."
THANKS FOR BEING WITH US.
GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU.
FOR TERRY AND GEORGE, THIS
IS PAT ROBERTSON.
WE'LL SEE YOU TOMORROW.
BYE-BYE.
