Trump Wants To Reopen America - Here’s How

Transcript:

Bryan Fischer here with today’s Life and Liberty Minute. President Trump said last weekend that, quote, “We have to get back to work. We have to open our country again.” How do we do that? Here’s a suggestion. First, if people don’t have the symptoms - fever, dry cough, difficulty breathing - let them go back to work. Urge them to be smart, wash their hands, and practice social distancing when they can. Second, the moment someone begins to experience symptoms, urge them to stay home from work and get a prescription for chloroquine. Third, if we’re going to quarantine anybody, let’s make it folks over 70 with an underlying health condition. Everybody else, be smart and resume normal behavior. Singapore has done this, and they haven’t shut down anything, including schools. Time for America to hang out the open for business sign again, the sooner the better.

The Fight Against Coronavirus is Worse Than The Disease

Transcript:

I believe we have been vastly overreacting to Coronavirus, reacting out of panic and fear rather than reason and science. It’ll take decades to recover what we’ve destroyed. Scientists are saying the same thing. Dr. David Katz of the Yale University Prevention Research Center says in the New York Times, “I am deeply concerned that the social, economic and public health consequences of this near-total meltdown of normal life — schools and businesses closed, gatherings banned — will be long-lasting and calamitous, possibly graver than the direct toll of the virus itself. The stock market will bounce back in time, but many businesses never will. The unemployment, impoverishment and despair likely to result will be public health scourges of the first order.” There’s a smart way to send people back to work, and we need to start doing it today.

Confidence In The Storm

Transcript:

Bryan Fischer here with today’s Life and Liberty Minute. The panic over the coronavirus is devastating our economy. In fact, the panic is doing more damage than the virus. With the world turned upside down, we must keep our eyes fixed on the author and perfecter of our faith, and choose to believe that he will see us through. If we hold fast to God, we have this promise from Proverbs 3: “If you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet. Do not be afraid of sudden terror, for the Lord will be your confidence.” Remember that Peter was able to walk on troubled waters as long as he kept his eyes fixed on Jesus. It was only when he began looking at the waves that he began to sink. Let’s trust in the Lord with all our heart and believe that he will lead us safely through this time of danger. God and not government is our source of confidence.

The Only Place To Begin

I remember reading a story about a driver who was lost in the countryside of England. He asked a farmer how to get to London. The farmer said, well, if I was going to London I wouldn’t start from here. This is Bryan Fischer with today’s Life and Liberty Minute. If we’re going to get to where we want to go in life, we have to start at the right place. Solomon tells us in Proverbs 1:7 that “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge.” If we want to get the only kind of knowledge that truly counts in life, we must begin with the fear of the Lord. This is a not cringing fear, but an awesome reverence for God. Solomon wrote Proverbs as a training manual for his own sons. He wanted them to know that the path to manhood begins at the foot of the throne of God. I’ve built my book for fathers, The Boy To Man Book on the wisdom of Proverbs.

The Right Kind of Pride

Transcript:

Bryan Fischer here with the Life and Liberty Minute. There’s a right kind of pride and a wrong kind. The wrong kind is the kind that is based on comparing ourselves to somebody else and feeling some kind of superiority. Paul says, “If anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself.” The right kind of pride is understanding what God wants us to do, and then doing that thing to the best of our ability, whether it involves family or ministry or work. There’s a deep satisfaction in that, what we used to mean when we commended a man for taking pride in his work. It’s not based on comparing ourselves to anyone else, but based simply on the pleasure we find when we do the thing that God has asked us to do as well as we possibly can. “Let each one test his own work,” Paul says, “and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor.”

How To Diagnose Coronavirus Of The Soul

Transcript:

Bryan Fischer here with today’s Life and Liberty Minute. Experts have been busy trying to find a way to test for the Coronavirus to see if people are infected. Being infected is serious, since it can lead to death. Now the health of our soul is more important even than the health of our body. God has given us an infallible way to test for cardiovirus, sickness of the soul. That test is his law, the law of God. If we think we’re in great shape, all we have to do is allow the perfect law of God to examine our hearts and our conduct. It instantly exposes our failure to honor God as we should, our failure to honor our parents as we should, our failure to keep the marriage covenant not just in deed but in thought, our willingness to lie, and our greed for things that do not belong to us. There’s a cure - the blood of Jesus, which cleanses the soul . Be sure to take your dose today.

Coronavirus Is The Finger Of God

Transcript:

Bryan Fischer here with today’s Life and Liberty Minute. Pharaoh’s magicians duplicated Moses’ first two miracles, but they could not replicate the plague of gnats that swept over the entire land. They said to Pharaoh, “This is the finger of God.” And so the coronavirus is the finger of God. It is God’s doing, since he is sovereign over all things. Said Amos, “Does disaster come to a city, unless the Lord has done it?” It represents God’s judgment on our land for our many national sins. It’s God way of calling our people to confess our sins of abortion, homosexuality, covetousness, sexual immorality,substance abuse, and rejecting the authority of his word. Beyond all that, we have forsaken God himself, who created us and gave us this land. Coronavirus is the finger of God and the voice of God telling America it is time to repent. Will we do it?

The Antidote To Loneliness

Bryan Fischer here with today’s Life and Liberty Minute. God himself said, after creating Adam, “It is not good for the man to be alone.” And so he said, “I will make a helper fit for him,” and created Eve to be his companion for life. Marriage is God’s solution to the problem of loneliness. Research from the American Enterprise Institute confirms that the loneliness of millennials vanishes when they get married and become active in their faith. Being rooted in God and rooted in marriage are the time-honored solutions to isolation. Dads, I’ve written the Boy To Man Book for you to prepare your 12-year-old son for manhood. I emphasize the importance of your son developing a deep relationship with God as his highest priority and give him tips about how to choose a bride. The Boy To Man Book - available exclusively at afastore.net. That’s afastore.net.

Yes, Jesus Did Teach Against Homosexuality

Bryan Fischer here with today’s Life and Liberty Minute. In the debate over homosexuality, those in the pro-sodomy movement contend that Jesus never taught against homosexuality. It was only the uptight apostle Paul who did that. But they’re flat wrong. Paul tells us explicitly in Galatians one that “the gospel that was preached by me is not man’s gospel. For I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ.” Every word of my gospel, Paul says, I received directly from Jesus Christ. He manifested himself to me and taught me everything that’s in my gospel. It did not come from any man. Thus when Paul speaks, Christ speaks. So when Paul says in Romans that homosexual passions are “dishonorable, shameless, and contrary to nature,” that’s not just Paul speaking, that’s Christ himself. Did Christ teach that homosexuality is a sin? Absolutely.

Hope On The Horizon For Coronavirus

Bryan Fischer here with today’s Life and Liberty Minute. God has always stopped plagues in unorthodox ways through his power. Elisha healed a poisoned spring by throwing salt in it, and healed a poisoned pot of stew by throwing flour in it. God may have provided a similarly unorthodox cure for the coronavirus in chloroquine, an inexpensive anti-malarial medication that can be used on patients of all ages, and is almost immediately effective. A Florida man was on his deathbed after contracting coronavirus. It got so bad he thought last Friday was his last day on earth because he couldn’t breathe. After convincing his reluctant doctor to prescribe choloroquine, he took some and his pain was gone by the next morning. He could breathe, and it was as if nothing had happened. This may be the answer to coronavirus, and if it is, it would be just like God.
