My wife tells me all the time to unplug from politics and culture in order to be happier. The problem with that is I feel I need to be informed in order to fight against movements that would harm my family and community.
I'm happy and hopeful because of my love for Christ and his true church and gospel. But it is important to stay informed to be able to watch for the signs of his Second Coming more clearly and to stand (stand up against evil) when he comes.
Yes sir .I believe too many lds think gladiator robbers were of those days..they completely cannot see , do not understand the gadianton robbers are controlling everything today. To be spiritually prepared we must understand these things, understand secret socities..
I was interested from the beginning but then VERY interested when the Gadianton Robber topic entered the chat. In such a time of widespread corruption we need to normalise this and not immediate say ‘conspiracy theory’.
I’m still waiting for 😢my children, who have left the Church, to come back. They are determined that the Church is not true and that there is no God. I just smile and tell them, “ Well, I believe it.” That really offends my oldest. But I just smile and say, Well, I believe it.” End of discussion. That’s that.😊 But they have to come unto Christ on their own. And so I pray and wait on the Lord.
I appreciate your channel Greg. I love John Hewlett. I love his unapologetic testimony of the gospel and his common sense approach to politics. You are a good human being John and I am glad to consider you a friend.
May I invite you to say “The Gospel of JESUS CHRIST is True”. Sometimes people think we are testifying of the church being true. I feel it is important to clarify “of JESUS CHRIST” when testifying. Love your ideas and guests. Thank You.
Thank you John Hewlett for saying it the way it is. This was really good. You must have gained much of your prospective from hunting the hills of the old family ranch. .
“Now undoubtedly Moroni could have pointed out many factors that led to the destruction of the people, but notice how he singled out the secret combinations, just as the Church today could point out many threats to peace, prosperity, and the spread of God’s work, but it has singled out the greatest threat as the godless conspiracy. There is no conspiracy theory in the Book of Mormon-it is a conspiracy fact”. Ezra Taft Benson GC April 1972
I really enjoyed this interview. I have been taking cardio miracle for a couple of years now and that is why I wanted to listen to this. My brother in law used to work with a nutrition company in Springville, Utah where he used to work. I don't know if they knew each other, but probably did. I enjoyed listening to his testimony.
On Negative Experience, it’s a good experience to experience some horrendous over powering evil force binds your tongue and limbs several times and every time even the call out or thought of Christ to come and save you, and that very moment and instant the evil force drops you and you are freed. I look back on it with knowledge and understanding that the very name and faith in Christ saves and is POWER in and for us. It makes you un afraid of any evil forces because now I am armed with knowledge of the power of Christ.
Love it I too can say thousands of re- confirmings with dozens of extra- remarkable AND a few astounding ones but its still up to me to keep my testimony
I wish I could afford Cardio Miracle but in New Zealand the dollar is worth half of the US dollar so to us it costs twice as much and freight is horrendous. sad
Love your program and your guest, Its true Gadianton robbers exists in all Governments and societies, wealth power before the vulnerable citizens, the poor, hungry, homeless, build the mortal castle in a blink, and not seef eternity, 😢
Much of the problem is how faith works. Instead of seeing and then believing it is believing and then seeing. It’s a different and backwards way than what makes sense
I agree. What's more, we are wired to believe in something greater than ourselves, and there is plenty of evidence of people having faith in all kinds of things that aren't good for them.
I am actually afraid that if they know what I think they will target/attack my good family. If it was just me I would not worry much. Other family members kind of know what I think and just ignore my opinion if in disagreement. I see it happen to others.
Information for the purpose of being informed is not what is important here. The covenant of the Book of Mormon Land of Promise is what’s important. We have been commanded to keep it and defend it with our righteousness so it can remain the sacred land for us, our God, family and Religion etc… The banner of liberty is not just a rag. It’s a covenant.
I agree with all your words, but I must say there is a difference between non alcoholic wine and the real thing. That's one thing I miss, but it's my sacrifice to the Lord. Whatever he wants, I shall do. I understand it's your opinion.
I'm with John. I can't make it 5 minutes reading without stopping and thinking there's just no way the prophet joseph smith was the author of the BOM. Even if he was a genius, a talented author, or a master deceiver he could not have pulled off a fraud of that magnitude. It's too prefect or rather "most correct" .
Fact check: The debt is 35 trillion which is still a ton. But I only fact check not to demean but to bring up the following point. That debt level is equivalent to 100k in debt for every single person. Not family, person. That is absolutely crazy. Debt bring inflation, inflation makes food storage essential, food storage shows the wisdom in the church.
Alcohol? I sometimes wish I would drink red wine. But I don’t like the feeling of dizziness that it produces as an after effect. Don’t give me a substitute.
The thing that scares me more than anything is to abandon NATO! I feel that would facilitate the loss of democracy. I can't support to abandon NATO, #1 concern.
President Dallin H.Oaks (April 2021) "There are many political issues, and no party, platform, or individual candidate can satisfy all personal preferences. Each citizen must therefore decide which issues are most important to him or her at any particular time. Then members should seek inspiration on how to exercise their influence according to their individual priorities. This process will not be easy. It may require changing party support or candidate choices, even from election to election. Such independent actions will sometimes require voters to support candidates or political parties or platforms whose other positions they cannot approve. That is one reason we encourage our members to refrain from judging one another in political matters. We should never assert that a faithful Latter-day Saint cannot belong to a particular party or vote for a particular candidate. We teach correct principles and leave our members to choose how to prioritize and apply those principles on the issues presented from time to time. "
@@patriciadumont2940 I cant bc i tried to say something again yesterday about being censored and they told me I couldn’t say anything for 13 hours so if I give an example again, I will be censored for another 13 hours! I didn’t swear I didn’t say anything except disagree with the tribune!
Every one seems eager to discuss the abortion issue, & understandably so. It is not just about Abortion & guns, however. No one seems to want to talk about the Gov't that would be under T. It is clear in his & his VP's words. It is extremely clear in the Project 25 agenda that it is now known that T & many people on his side as well as the Heritage Foundation (a false name re our county's founders the way the H. foundation claim.) - a real document his side is advocating for. Either the left or the right would be a problematic gov't, but at least you know where the left is coming from & going. It allows for freedom of choice, ability to speak out, whether people like it or not, although that has become a problem for the left as well as for the right. There is still,, a sense of striving for greater fairness in economics, health benefits for those less fortunate, a striving to benefit as much of our society as they can. Most rights still mostly intact. Our ability to keep our Constitution & Democratic Republic in some semblance of order & alive. On the right - only now, since the break out of Project 25, do we also know where the Republicans with T as leader are coming from & going. Their view of America is dark and prohibitive. No real choices except theirs. The "mouthpiece" being a person even many people on his side say is a felon, a lier, untrustworthy, who does not want anyone around who isn't white, anglo-saxon, and etc. etc. etc. It is not just about abortion & guns & women's rights. It is about keeping our Constitution & the greatest government experiment ever - our Democratic Republic alive! It seems clear to me that the 2 choices are fraught with large stumbling blocks & both are inspired in one way or another by the Adversary. However, in my religion we speak about choice & agency, being able to choose our way, our beliefs, our lives & how we live them, and should allow others to do the same as long as the laws are kept - which, by the way is problematic on both sides. The 10 commandments are essentially the laws for a stable society whether you believe in God or not. Unfortunately, the only thing I see in T's gov't with what he & his people, including Vance, & Project 25 as a "play book", is a fascist dictator & gang who will take away those very choices our country was built on. No choice, no speaking out against, no fairness in the economics, no rights but the ones they want you to have, no freedom to express ourselves in art, music, & literature, education, & which seem only to benefit them (the men & possibly women behind the "throne"). Power & control is a powerful drug. It ensnares many. I will be voting for the Constitution & our Democratic Republic. I see greater hope in that side than on the right.
You’re right-it’s not only about abortion. Do you support abortion until birth? Transing children? Men in women’s prisons? DEI? Equality of outcomes? Identity over merit? Destroying the family? Destroying Christian values? Anti-semitism? Government censorship? If so, the DNC is the right place for you.
Ah yes, another episode with the snake oil salesman pushing his crazy conspiracy theories. It’s hard to take your channel serious when you have this joker on and give him an open mic.
Trump's campaign was spied on. No conspiracy theory. Hillary destroyed personal servers with classified documents. No conspiracy theory. The virus started in a lab. No conspiracy theory. Trump was prosecuted purely out of politics. No conspiracy theory. Trump was shot after actors joked about it and Democrat politicians used rhetoric about existential threats. No conspiracy theory. The nation had riots thinking that a man was killed by a policeman and the information about him having lethal amounts of drugs in his system was withheld from the public until it was too late. No conspiracy theory. An honest assessment of the facts is on his side, not yours. We either get to keep our head in the sand and root for our team, or we can look at the world as it is, full of gadianton robber style corruption.

I think that's at the core of being in the world but not of the world, unfortunately.
Exact same feelings here.
Same here! It's tough to balance
I'm happy and hopeful because of my love for Christ and his true church and gospel. But it is important to stay informed to be able to watch for the signs of his Second Coming more clearly and to stand (stand up against evil) when he comes.
That struggle is true and very real.
A lot of speakers at the Republican National Convention was very uplifting. A lot of heartfelt speeches about faith, freedom, and family.
