What if a single EU directive could reshape the global business landscape? Tune in as we unpack the new ESG law as the EU Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive and its far-reaching consequences for companies worldwide, particularly those in the US.

This new legislation mandates stringent ESG compliance across entire supply chains, fundamentally altering corporate operations and partnerships. We feature insights from Glenn Beck, who argues that this directive poses a significant threat to freedom and business practices in America, urging us to consider the broader implications for international trade and regulatory environments.

Next, we tackle the EU's ambitious social credit score legislation. Imagine a world where over a thousand metrics could define a company's social and economic standing. We explore the economic ramifications for the EU if it shifts its trade focus away from China and delve into the punitive measures for non-compliance with these stringent regulations.

Pastor Holthaus critically assesses the philosophical divide between positive rights and inalienable rights and scrutinizes the controversial role of public-private partnerships in shaping a so-called sustainable economy. This segment challenges the very foundations of free speech and capitalism, introducing the "degrowth methodology" as a pivotal point of discussion.

Finally, we venture into the more esoteric realm of religious manipulation within global economic policies. Examining how entities like the EU, UN, and World Economic Forum promote ESG criteria, we argue that these initiatives are akin to a new form of religion.

Speaker 1 (00:21):
So we'll jump into our last half and do some
current events, and one of thethings that I think we need to
be paying attention to is whatthe EU just passed I think today
or yesterday or the day beforeand it has huge implications for
all businesses in the UnitedStates and has obviously

(00:41):
prophetic implications in theUnited States.
And has obviously propheticimplications and you may not
have heard this but the EUCorporate Sustainability Due
Diligence Directive three tripleDs passed and you're like what
in the world is this?
Well, it's them pushing the ESGbasically as a law on all

(01:08):
businesses and on all businessesthat have to deal with European
businesses, and this has hugeramifications for any company in
the United States that is doingbusiness with Europe, basically

(01:29):
, of course, china.
Those other countries areexempt, because China never does
anything ESG right.
But this whole ESG thing I'msure you're aware of it the
environmental saved the planet,the societal or the social is
the social justice stuff, andthe governance means that you've
got to have diversity, equity,inclusion on your board all
kinds of junk.
So what ended up happening isthey made it law in the European

(01:53):
Union.
So what we have here is theyhave passed this ESG law that
basically says that they willsteer business towards ESG
behavior and will become newglobal standard with regard to
mandatory save the plant notplant planet laws, social
justice and all that.
So they're implementing this.

(02:15):
Now, to understand a few thingsabout this it establishes a
corporate due diligence.
That's the key word in all ofthis standard on sustainability,
and due diligence means that ifI'm a company, I must do my due
diligence to find out ifeveryone that's feeding into my

(02:37):
company is doing ESG.
I have to have my due diligenceon that.
So, for instance, like, if Isell cars to Europe and say I'm
I don't know Toyota or somethinglike that, okay, so I'm Toyota
and I sell to Europe, I have tomake sure that I, as Toyota,

(03:00):
practice ESG.
But then everybody that makesparts for me so like this
company over here makes theengine, this company over here
makes the little dials on theradio, this company over here
makes the tires all of thosepeople that feed into my
business have to also be ESGcompliant, otherwise I can't do
business with them.

(03:20):
Okay, so that even and it likeI'll show a clip from Glenn Beck
it even goes down to Amazon.
So like, if you're selling onAmazon, which a lot of people do
.
That means Amazon has to be ifthey're selling to Europe, has
to be ESG compliant andtherefore anyone that's selling
on Amazon has to be ESGcompliant.

(03:42):
So it has huge ramificationsand it's not a good thing.
So this is right off theEuropean Commission's website
that I pulled up which companieswill the new EU rules apply?
Well, they start off withsaying you know a thousand
employees that you have and theycall it you have to 450 million

(04:07):
turnover.
Turnover is is like revenue,right, okay, net.
So if you're making that kindof and you have over a thousand
employees, well, it's going toaffect you and you think, well,
what am I?
I'm a small business, yeah, butif that small business is
feeding into one of thesecompanies, you're cooked because
you have to comply too.
And then large non-EU companiesover 900, if you have 450

(04:31):
million turnover, then you gotto do it as well.
So this is on their website.
They've been trying to pass itand they finally got it through.
So, as like Gun Beck talkedabout it, he said, our society,
through corporate decisionmaking and business partnerships
, are going to be forced toconform with the European rules,
values and the environmentalcenters, because the law will

(04:52):
affect American companies aswell.
Social justice metrics have tobe officially be imposed on
America.
The rule is directly pointed atcompanies that sell half a
billion dollars worth of product, and any company that does
business with those companieswill have to comply with the new
rules.
So this is not good.
So let me play Beck for a while.

(05:14):
It's about five minutes, butlisten to what he has to say
about this.
He took it pretty seriously andI think he's on to something.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
Now it's official and it's in writing, and so I'm
going to explain it and tell youwhat it is and what it's going
to do.
It looked like this bill wasgoing to die several times over
the past few months.
Now it is one of the biggestthreats to freedom in America,
both in the short and the longterm.
Short and the long term becausethis law, because of this law

(05:51):
in europe, our society, throughcorporate decision making and
business partnerships, are goingto be forced to conform with
the european rules, values andenvironmental standards.
European social justice metricsare now officially, they have
to be imposed on America throughthis law.
Here's what's going to happen.

(06:14):
The EU has established anextraordinarily complex, very
large ESG system that covers allcompanies, system that covers
all companies, and when I sayall companies, all companies
will need to comply with.
This includes both coveredcompanies based in the us as

(06:34):
well as non-eu companies such asthose in america and canada
that operate in the eu.
So in you sell I think it'shalf a billion dollars worth of
stuff and you have to comply.
You sell a half a billiondollars in Europe.
Just under that, then you haveto comply, but so do all of the

(06:57):
companies that you do businesswith.
So if you're a small companyand you're making widgets and
you sell them to a company thatis making big money and I wonder
if this applies to amazon yousell something on amazon, that's
a company that's making atleast half a billion dollars in

(07:17):
europe you're going to have tocomply.
The covered companies will berequired to submit reports to
the European governmentauthorities if they are EU-based
companies with more than 1,000employees and a worldwide
turnover of more than $489million.

(07:40):
Turnover is another word forrevenue or income, but why
wouldn't you say that this wordbothers me?
I just think it's one of those.
It's like stakeholders thatnobody notices.
And then you hear stakeholdersand you know what it means.
You're like oh, that'severybody.

(08:01):
Non-eu based companies, such asUs companies, now fall under the
requirements if they have a netturnover of more than 489
million dollars with theeuropean union.
Franchise and licensingagreements, as well as
subsidiaries of larger companies, will also fall under the EU's

(08:22):
ESG regime.
I don't know exactly.
The lawyers have not evenreally explained this yet, but
we have been covering this forso long.
We think we know what thismeans.
But licensing agreements Iwrite books.
Some of them sell in Europe.

(08:43):
Simon Schuster sells books likecrazy over in europe.
They're making over 489 million, I'm sure, in europe.
Am I now forced to comply?
Thank god I have mercury inknow and I don't have to do simon
and schuster, but am I required?

(09:04):
Most importantly, all coveredcompanies will need to ensure
that the businesses in theirsupply and value chains.
I don't know what that means.
Do you know what supply andvalue chain is, stu?
You're the head of Ford.
Have you checked your valuechange?

(09:26):
What is exactly the numbers onyour value change?
Anybody who makes a widget forthese companies has to adhere to
the relevant ESG rules.
Remember, esg is environmental,social and governance.
So, do you have enough gayblack hermaphrodites that only

(09:49):
have one leg?
Do you have them on your board?
Well, why not?
That's your governance part.
Social is all of the socialjustice that we've been fighting
, and E, of course, isenvironment that we've been

(10:09):
fighting, and E, of course, isenvironment.
This bill, by the way, willdestroy the petroleum industry
and, don't worry, petroleum isnot used in anything, nothing in
petroleum.
This will indirectly imposeEurope's ESG standards on
countless American companies,including many small businesses.
All covered companies will needto create climate change

(10:31):
transition plans, preventionaction plans establish
contractual assurances from adirect business partner that it
will ensure compliance with thebusiness's prevention action
plan.
So you make a widget but youdon't sell it to Ford.

(10:52):
You sell it to somebody that ismaking radios for Ford.
You don't have anything to dowith Ford.
But if you want to sell awidget to another company that
does business with Ford or sellit to another company that that
company sells to another companyto sell to Ford, you see how

(11:14):
this is working.
And if you don't comply inAmerica you cannot sell anything
in Europe.
In America you cannot sellanything in Europe.
Individual countries will writetheir own laws in accordance
with this new EU ESG law.
Each country in the EU will beresponsible for enforcing its

(11:36):
rules and issuing punishments.
Civilian and activist groupsalso are covered in this bill.
Activist groups can bringprivate cause of action against
companies for failing to meetguidelines.
Well, open up the floodgatesfor attorneys right there.

(11:58):
The EU requirements are goingto be phased in, beginning in
2027.

Speaker 1 (12:04):
Let's talk about the few things he said.
Civilian and activist groupscan bring private cause of
action against companies who donot meet guidelines.
So if you're a company, thensome civilian or activist groups
can actually sue you for notbeing ESG compliant.
Groups can actually sue you fornot being ESG compliant.

(12:28):
Now again, if you're not aChristian and you're some CEO of
a company, what do you thinkyou're going to do?
You're going to go along withthis.
You're going to go along withthis.
Okay.
Now, like he says, like whenthey transition to this ESG
compliant, the businesses aregoing to bear the cost this has
come from the EU commission thecost of establishing and
operating, the cost this hascome from the EU Commission the
cost of establishing andoperating the due diligence

(12:51):
process will go to thebusinesses.
Transition costs, includingexpenditures and investments to
adapt the company's ownoperations and value chains to
comply with due diligenceobligation if needed.
So basically, we're going tomake the companies pay for this.
Now again, you just went throughseveral years ago when all the
companies the small, mediumcompanies were basically put out

(13:13):
of business, right, becausethey can't stay at the level of
the corporations of the HomeDepots and the Lowe's and the
McDonald's and stuff like that.
So the mom and pops are put outof business.
The only way you're going to beable to comply is if you have a
boatload of money to be able totransition your business to be
ESG compliant.

(13:34):
And who has that?
Well, the only ones that havethat kind of money are the large
corporations.
So basically, what they'redoing is look, we're going to
put you out of business.
If you can't comply, you're outof business.
And I'm sorry you don't havethe money to be ESG compliant.
I'm sorry we can't do businesswith you.
And now you're out of businessand what it's moving into is

(13:57):
more monopoly corporations andpublic-private partnership.
Okay, how will the rules beenforced?
Well, you have administrationsupervision.
Member states will designate anauthority to supervise and
enforce the rules, includingthrough injunctive orders and
effective, proportionate anddissuasive penalties basically

(14:17):
fines.
At the European level, thecommission will set up a
European network supervisorauthority that will bring
together representatives ofnational bodies to ensure a
coordinated approach.
So they're going to create sometype of arm for this to
supervise companies.
Hmm, this is coming from theEuropean Commission.
Civil liability Member stateswill ensure that victims get

(14:38):
compensated for damages whatvictims Resulting from
intentional or negligent failureto carry out due diligence.
What is the due diligence thatI'm doing?
Esg.
So if I do not like he said,put the one-legged hermaphrodite
on my board, okay, then thatone-legged hermaphrodite can sue

(15:03):
me because I'm not ESGcompliant.
That's what they're saying.
So I can be sued civilly forthis or whatever.
I'm not doing measures to savethe planet in my business, or
something like that.
Okay, so Glenn goes on andtalks about a little bit more,
so go ahead and listen to him.

Speaker 2 (15:22):
It's about five more minutes, okay, on and talks
about a little bit more, so goahead and listen to him.
It's about five more minutes.
Now let me get into the actualrequirements that we can.
This is a very complex and verybig bill.
There's not a single long listof specific rules that companies
need to comply with.
There are some specific rulesthat are included.

(15:42):
However, this new law includeshundreds of vague statements and
references to existinginternational agreements and EU
regulations.
Many of those are also longagreements featuring many more
rules, such as the Paris ClimateAgreement and the International

(16:03):
Covenant on Economic, socialand Cultural Rights.
You know that You're complying,I'm sure.
Oh, you're not.
I guess we should read up on itas a result of the complexity
and expansiveness of the rules.
The total number of socialcredit scoring metrics Let me

(16:24):
say that again.
The total number of socialcredit scoring metrics Let me
say that again.
The total number of socialcredit scoring metrics included
in this law is currently unknown, but is likely in the hundreds,
if not more than, a thousand.
It's hard to tell.
Currently, you get socialcredit scores.

(16:44):
Now let me ask you something Isthe EU actually going to stop
buying everything that comesfrom China, because there's no
way China will comply with this.
Do you know what that will doto the prices to the European
Union if they stop buying thingsfrom China?
And if we don't stop this, ifwe Stop buying things from China

(17:08):
Prices you will go brokequickly.
Businesses will go out ofbusiness quickly.
Now here's just one example ofthe law where it's not economic.
It's actually on climate changeand free speech.
The directive is an importantlegislative tool to ensure

(17:29):
corporate transition to asustainable economy with the
global net zero by 2050 and toavoid any misleading claims
regarding such alignment andstop greenwashing,

(17:59):
disinformation and fossil fuelexpansion worldwide in order to
achieve international andEuropean climate objectives.
So notice they throw inmisinformation.
One law firm notes companies arerequired to effectively engage

(18:20):
with stakeholders.
Let me say that again Companiesare required to effectively
engage with stakeholders.
Do you remember who thestakeholders are?
Because they're not you.
The stakeholders are thegovernments, the social

(18:47):
activists and I think that's itand the companies themselves.
Those three get togetherbecause you know, the Sierra
Club is a stakeholder in makingsure that our trees are okay and
our environment is clean.
The government is just arepresentative of you, yeah,

(19:10):
yeah, I stopped believing that along time ago.
So you don't have a voice.
Your voice is the Senate andthe House and the president.
That's the stakeholder thatthey have to deal with.
Companies have to sit down whenthey're making these rules with
those guys.

(19:31):
This includes carrying outconsultations at various stages
of the due diligence processthat's going to be cheap During
which companies must providecomprehensive information.
Now, according to the EuropeanParliament, member states will
be required to provide companieswith detailed online

(19:53):
information of their duediligence obligations via
practical portals containing theCommission's guidance.
They will also create or designand designate a supervisory
authority to investigate andimpose penalties on any
non-compliant firms.
These will include naming andshaming.

(20:15):
That's a quote.
This will include in quotes,naming and shaming and fines of
up to 5% of the company's networldwide turnover Again,
worldwide turnover.
Why?
not use revenue.
Additionally, a breach ofcertain CSDDD obligations that's

(20:42):
the catchy acronym for it mayresult in civil liability for
damages.
However, a company cannot beheld liable for any damage
caused by its business partnersin its chain of activities.
I can guarantee you we are atleast a year, maybe two years

(21:04):
ahead of everyone else.
They are not paying attentionto this, are?

Speaker 1 (21:15):
not paying attention to this.
Do not dismiss this when you goin to vote.
So just a couple things that hesaid.
The scoring metrics he saidwhat they're reading on the
European Commission is probablyover a thousand scoring metrics
on that.
That's again social creditscore.
Like we said, they can bring uh, private cause that can sue.
It's in.
It's in accord to the parisclimate agreement.

(21:36):
Remember trump got us out ofthat, biden put us right back
into it, right, and then it'sit's according to the
international covenant ofeconomic, social and cultural
rights, as he mentioned.
Now, when I look this up on theunited nations website and
again anyone can go look this upall you want and they tell you
what they want.
So, basically, when you look atthis, this was established like
, I think, in the 40s, right, 45, 44, something like that, and

(22:01):
what it really is is thecreation of positive rights.
As I look through it, it waslike, well, we're going to
provide education, we're goingto provide housing, we're going
to all these positive rightsthat you hear them talk about.
That none of that comes fromthe Bible, by the way.
Positive rights come from thegovernment.
We don't believe our rightscome from the government,
because governments in order togive positive rights.

(22:23):
You have to understand this.
When a government says Ibelieve that we should erase
college debt, okay, biden wantsto erase college debt, even
though the Supreme Court saidyou're not going to do that.
That's a right for these kids.
In order to give a positiveright from the government, you
have to take away other people'srights.

(22:44):
That's the only way you cangive a positive right.
So when you look at inalienablerights that come from, like the
Ten Commandments, they're inthe negative because they
already belong to you.
So the only thing that you cando is lose them by.
Somebody tries to take themfrom you, but there's no, you
know, government gives positiverights.
Well, that's what the UN does.
It's saying we should have this, we should have that, that, and

(23:07):
the question is well, who'sgoing to pay for it?
Because it's certainly notgoing to be you.
Oh, that's right, it'staxpayers.
Okay, so a couple things onthere, and I'm going to bring
this to a spiritual connectionhere.
You have to do due diligenceobligations.
You have to submit reports tothe EU.
Net zero by 2050 has to be allthrough your business.

(23:29):
Sustainable economy, which meansthe destruction of capitalistic
society.
Basically, as Klaus Schwabtalks about the stakeholder
economy and really what it is?
It's a public privatepartnership.
It's fascism, it's globalfascism.
Curb disinformation andmisinformation regarding climate
change, fossil fuels Basically,the destruction of free speech.
You do not want anyone havingfree speech.

(23:51):
So these rights apparentlythese positive rights don't give
free speech.
They take away free speechAnyway.
And then, as an example, theyhave a methodology called the
degrowth methodology and again,communists have this.
But again, this is kind oftheir mentality and what it.

(24:13):
What it means is this they wantto degrowth, obviously, the
economy by by, and theirmentality is economic output
increases carbon emissions, sothe better the economic, the
economics are of a country, themore carbon emissions come out.

(24:34):
This is stupid logic.
This is the stupidity of thesepeople.
So they say there's acorrelation between that.
So for them, the best way tofight a climate change is for
wealthy nations to cut back ontheir consumption and reduce
their material throughput.

(24:55):
Okay, that creates demand forenergy and drives GDP.
So the degrowth movement hasswelled in recent years,
particularly in Europe and inacademic circles.
These idiots at these Ivy Leagueplaces talk about this and
obviously the theory hasdramatic implications.
Like I said last week, what dothey want.
Well, if I can't kill thepopulation and economic output

(25:20):
is correlated to carbonemissions, then we have to
reduce our economic output toreduce our carbon emissions.
And that means we need to makeeveryone poor.
Okay, we need to make everyonepoor.
So that's how we're going toreduce carbon emissions Again.

(25:42):
I showed you that last week andhere we are again.
It's a degrowth movement.
So instead of findingcarbon-neutral ways to power our
luxurious modern lifestyles,they say degrowth would require
us to surrender materialcomforts.
So one of the leadingproponents suggests imposing a
hard cap on total nationalenergy use, which would ratchet

(26:03):
down every year.
Well, what do you mean?
Energy-intensive activitiesmight be banned outright or
taxed to a near oblivion.
For instance, say goodbye to,perhaps, perhaps to hamburgers,
suvs they wouldn't sell themanymore your annual
cross-country flight home foryour holidays?
They're not going to let you dothat.
That type of thing.
Prohibited from setting yourthermostat too cold in the

(26:25):
summer, too hot in the winter Tokeep frivolous spending down,
the government might decidewhich products are wasteful and
ban advertising for them.
Slower growth would requireless labor.
So guess what?
So the government would shortenthe work.
We can guarantee it a job forevery person.
That's what we're talking about.
Okay, that's what we're.

(26:45):
That's called the degrowthmovement.
That's what's involved in this.
That's why Glenn Beck isfreaking out about it and did a
whole 18-minute episode on itbecause of the implications of
the Europeans doing this, whichwe know.
Our Senate and our White Housewould go right along with this.
They have no problem doing that.

(27:07):
So again, what gets?
Created a supervisor authorityto investigate and enforce
penalties for non-compliantcompanies, like Glenn Beck said.
The naming and shaming it'sright there.
It's quote, quote, unquote.
They will name and then theywill shame.
That's what they said.
Okay, and think about this a 5%fine on company revenues.

(27:30):
Let's say I make 400 or less ahalf a billion.
They're going to take 5% of ahalf a billion if I'm not ESG
compliant.
5%.
You see the money-making schemehere.
Oh, my goodness.
5% of fines, multi-milliondollar corporations yeah, yeah,

(27:51):
now let's bring it together.
5% of fines, multi-milliondollar corporations yeah, yeah,
now let's bring it together.
I understand it from a biblicalstandpoint.
So now, here's the context,here's what's happening, but
then what you have to do ismarry it to what the whore of
Babylon, and really theBabylonian system, is trying to
achieve.
Revelation 17 says this Come Iwill show you the judgment of
the great harlot who sits onmany waters the Babylonian
system is trying to achieve.
Revelation 17 says this come Iwill show you the judgment of

(28:13):
the great harlot who sits onmany waters.
So the harlot, obviously, isthe whore of Babylon and she's
where all false religion comesfrom.
Okay, make no mistake what theEU is doing, what the Europeans
are doing, what the EU, the UN,all these groups, the World
Economic Forum is pushinganother religion, esg is another

(28:38):
religion.
It's not a political aspect.
It has a political component toit, but it's a religious aspect
.
Okay, and so the harlot, whatyou want to think about in the
harlot's term, she's theprovocateur of false religion.
She's a harlot in the fact thatshe perverts religion.

(29:01):
So what do you mean?
Well, religion, true religion,according to James, is that
which serves others.
That's true religion.
You serve God by serving others.
That's the way of true religion.
So he says serve orphans andwidows.
You serve the least of yourcongregation, your community,

(29:23):
whatever.
So you serve God by servingothers.
That's the proper thing.
The whore takes religion andperverts it and then makes the
religion.
Instead of serving others,people serve the religion.
It inverts it.
That's what the whore does sheinverts it.

(29:45):
That's why she's called aharlot, because she inverts it
and perverts what true religionis supposed to do.
So one of the things aboutreligion you have to understand
is true religion based on faithin God, if it will unify a

(30:07):
diverse population, if thatdiverse population believes in
the core tenets of what theBible states, okay.
So you can come from anybackground, nationality whatever
, and if you believe in thesecore tenets of the Bible, you
will be unified around thattruth.

(30:28):
And that's the brilliance ofthe church is the church is made
up of every tribe, language,tongue and nation can be unified
under a common set ofprinciples, believe it or not.
That's where the melting potconcept for the United States
comes from.
We all come from differentbackgrounds and we go into the

(30:52):
melting pot, and the melting potis these are the american
values we hold.
It doesn't matter where youcome from.
So we, we come and we hold that, and that brings unity.
So the great thing aboutreligion, true religion based on
the foundational principles ofthe bible, is it does unify.
It does unify, okay, but whatSatan does, what the whore of

(31:18):
Babylon does, is it destroysthat true unity that's based on
truth and creates tribalism.
Okay, so now we have in our.
What the whore is pushing isdiversity, right, diversity,
equity, inclusion, it's one ofthe things.

(31:40):
Okay, please understand what dothey say?
They say we celebrate diversity, strengthen diversity.
Have you heard those terms?
Those are Marxist terms.
There is no strength indiversity unless you are unified
around the truth.
That's how diversity works.
It has to have truth.
But if diversity is just forthe sake of diversity, guess

(32:04):
what happens?
Division, tribalism, identitypolitics, whatever you want to
call it everyone goes theirseparate way because the
diversity is not centered arounda unifying principle of truth.
Okay, so what's happened inAmerica is the whore has been
working, so she has sentdiversity, equity, inclusion,

(32:27):
esg scores into the UnitedStates and that has caused
tribalism in the United States,which is breaking up our
national unity surrounding acertain set of principles,
particularly in the church oftruth.
Like males don't have babies,okay, that's the truth.
Males don't have babies.

(32:48):
So now that's on its head.
Now, because of diversity,equity, inclusion, esg, save the
planet, all that junk.
Okay, so what they're doing isdestroying real, true unity,
replacing it with tribalism andthen, once you have the
tribalism and you have nounifying factor.
Have no unifying factor, thenyou usher in the false religion

(33:14):
that brings a unifying factor,but it's a counterfeit unifying
factor because you've gotten ridof the truth, so you've brought

(33:35):
in lies for people to unifyaround.
That's what the whore does inall false religions, but now
she's doing it on a global scale.
It's now her time.
So, with the formation of a newunity, that's what you're
seeing the companies do iscreate a new unifying principle
ESG, diversity, equity,inclusion all that junk it's all
religious practices andunifying the whole world in this

(33:59):
new supra-religion which is thewhore.
Notice what she does With whom?
The kings of the earth, who arethe kings, the leaders of
countries, committed fornication.
What does that mean?
It means that they're doing adeal with her religiously, that

(34:23):
they're selling themselves outfor what the whore can give them
, and it's using that in asexual term of saying, look,
they're doing a deal with her topromote her and then she gives
something back to them, right?
So they're using her.
She uses them for what she canget.
Okay, and also, the inhabitantsof the earth were made drunk

(34:44):
with the wine of her fornication.
Again, the wine of herfornication is her false
religion and unifying principle.
So it makes people drunk in thefact that they don't think
straight.
For example, if you believe aman can have a baby, you're
intoxicated by the wine of herfornication.

(35:05):
She makes you believe thingsthat are not true like the
planet's dying and humans are acancer, all that stuff.
You start believing things thatare not true Like the planet's
dying and humans are a cancer,all that stuff.
You start believing things thatare not true.
Right, that's the whole pointbehind this.
Okay, so what she isestablishing is she can't exist
on her own.
She has to have a, a help thatcomes from not only the

(35:32):
government, but from themerchants of the earth.
You have the kings of the earthand you have the merchants of
the earth.
So she has to have help in herposition, and what we have now
going on here is apublic-private partnership
that's going on.
Like Glenn Beck was saying, thestakeholders in this are the

(35:52):
government, the corporations andthe Sierra Club, so to speak
these crazy wackadooorganizations.
So what the strategy is is whatthe government cannot do
legally, the corporations can dothrough the back door by
pushing the ESG.
So notice what Revelation 18,three says For all the nations.

(36:14):
All the nations have drunk thewine of the wrath of her
fornication.
So the idea is that this is aglobal problem that everyone
will do.
Okay, it's not a regional thing.
But notice who's involved.
The kings of the earth, again,that's the politicians, that's

(36:37):
the governments of the world hadcommitted fornication with her.
And who else?
The merchants of the earth havebecome rich through the
abundance of her luxuryabundance of her luxury.

(36:58):
So there's your private, publicpartnership pushing a religion
right in front of you.
The governments and themerchants are working together,
which is exactly what they'redoing right now.
That's what they're doing, andthey're pushing a false religion
.
They're pushing her.
Okay, so he carried me away inthe spirit into the wilderness,
and so this is a projection intothe future, into the

(37:19):
tribulation period.
So this is telling you wherethe end game goes.
And I saw a woman sitting on ascarlet beast which was full of
names of blasphemy and havingseven heads and ten horns.
Well, that's real simple tounderstand, in the sense that
that is the beast governmentthat will be in effect during
the tribulation.
And the beast government is aglobal government, right, and

(37:41):
eventually will be ran by theAntichrist, but in the process,
before the Antichrist takes theglobal government.
It is ran by ten kings, tenglobal, regional kings who
oversee the entire planet.
But notice where she's at onthem.
She's sitting on them.

(38:05):
What that means is that thecivil government is actually
supporting her.
They are promoting herthroughout the world, along with
the merchants.
The governments are doing this.
So this is a mystery that gotrevealed.

(38:27):
So Revelation 17 says this thewoman was arrayed in purple and
scarlet.
So she's getting very rich offof this, by the way, adorned
with gold and precious stonesand pearls, having in her hand a
golden cup full of abominationsand of the filthiness of her
fornication.
Why?
Because everything she pushesin her religion is antithetical

(38:49):
to the Bible.
The Bible says there are maleand females.
It says there's 52, right, it'sthat Everything is totally
opposite of what God said.
God created the heavens and theearth.
It says, no, you were herethrough evolution, or aliens put
you here, or something likethat.
Everything is like the opposite, right?

(39:09):
So that's the filthiness of herfornication.
And the problem is she getsrich off of this.
Again.
I've showed you some of theaspects of it the fines if you
don't comply with the whore.
You're like 5%.
Again, you're making a half amillion I mean not half a
million, but a half a billion asa company and you have to give

(39:30):
5% because you're not compliant.
You can see how the whore wouldbecome very wealthy, right?
She gets really rich off ofthis.
So whoever's controlling her isgetting the money for this,
okay, and it says this mystery.
Now, when you see the wordmystery, it means that this is
something that was not revealedin the Old Testament but is now

(39:52):
being revealed in the NewTestament.
So this is the second satanicmystery, and the mystery is
Babylon the Great, the mother ofharlots and of the abominations
of the earth.
And we think, well, that's nota mystery.
You're right, that's not themystery aspect of her.
We already know she's theharlot.
We already know she's theharlot.

(40:12):
We already know she's themother, she's the abomination.
We already know that all thefalse religions come from the
whore.
That's the Old Testament.
What was the mystery?
The mystery is that she rideson the beast.
That was the mystery that noone knew in the Old Testament.
They knew the whore, but theydidn't realize that the civil

(40:35):
government would actuallysupport her and push her agenda.
Now, why?
Now?
Why?
Well, first of all, you have tounderstand the nature of
religion.
You have to have a unifyingfactor.
Even if the unifying factor isnot true, you still have to have
a unifying factor.
So Constantine, like I showedyou with the church of Pergamum,

(40:58):
what did he do to unify theRoman empire?
He made Christianity theofficial religion of the empire
and he used Christianity as atool to unify.
Even though he didn't show anyreally good signs of him being
really a believer or not, he didunderstand the purpose of

(41:18):
religion.
So most people who are smart andwant to control people realize
you can't just come at peoplewith a totally secular mentality
, at people with a totallysecular mentality.
People won't buy it.
You have to come with peoplewith a form of religion, but

(41:40):
that denies the power therein.
So you have to unify peoplewith religion, even though it's
false.
And that's what they're doing.
This is a religion and she'sthe mother of the harlots.
Okay.
Then he said to me the waterswhich you saw where the harlot
sits are peoples, multitudes,nations and tongues.
So he explains she comes fromthe people.
The people are promoting her aswell.

(42:03):
Everybody is promoting her.
So it's a unifying factor.
Okay, and the ten horns whichyou saw on the beast, these will
hate the harlot, make herdesolate and naked, eat her
flesh and burn her with fire.
You're like what?
That doesn't make any sense.
It totally makes sense.
You understand.
The people at the top know thatwhat they're pushing is false,

(42:30):
but everyone under them is auseful idiot and believes the
false narrative, like theplanet's dying because of humans
.
The ones at the top don'tbelieve that.
They don't believe any of thatjunk.
Okay, they're just using thefalse religion to get unity.
You really think that the onesat the top think there's 52
genders?
They're using the LGBTcommunity and once they're done

(42:54):
with them, they will destroythem.
You understand?
That's how revolutions work.
They use a bunch of usefulidiots who actually believe in
the junk and then they kill themat the end.
So notice what they do with thewhore Once they get into power
and they don't need her anymoreonce they have taken full

(43:14):
control.
They hate the harlot.
They don't even like whatthey're pushing.
They're using Islam.
They're using the LGBT, they'reusing the transgender.
They're using all that junk.
They hate the harlot and theywill make her desolate and naked
, eat her flesh.
Take the harlot and they willmake her desolate and naked, eat
her flesh and burn her withfire.
They're going to destroy heronce they get power.

(43:36):
But in order to get the power,you have to have a unifying
religion, to unite everyonearound.
That's what they're doing.
So they don't even believe this.
Okay, that's what he's tryingto say.
So now we have God involved inthis.
He's allowing this, for God hasput it into their hearts to
fulfill his purpose.

(43:57):
This is why this is going on.
This is why the ESG, the DEIscores, are happening.
God is allowing this becausewe're living in the last days To
be of one mind and to give her,give their kingdom to the beast
, which that's the ultimate goal.
So they have to get rid of her,so they can give it to the
Antichrist, until the words ofGod are fulfilled.

(44:17):
So everything you're seeing isaccording to plan and the woman
whom you saw is the great citywhich reigns over the kings of
the earth.
So that's not a mystery.
The great city is Babylon.
Well, don't spiritualize this,because that's a mistake.
Don't spiritualize Babylonbecause people say well, it's

(44:38):
New York City, it's London, it'sthis, it's that.
No, no, no, no, no.
To stay hermeneuticallyconsistent, babylon is always
Babylon.
So let me substantiate this foryou Revelation 14, 8, and
another angel saying followed.
Saying Babylon is fallen.
Is fallen the great city,because she has made all nations

(45:02):
drink of the wine of the wrathof her fornication.
And I know what you're saying.
If I look today on Google Earthand I go to where Babylon was,
all you're gonna see is theruins there.
That's all you're going to see,is the ruins there.
That's all you're going to see.
In Iraq is ruins.
And people are going to sayit's saying look, the great city

(45:22):
is there, it's in Iraq and it'sdestroyed there.
And then, if I bring inZechariah 5, I substantiate it
even more.
Then the angel who talked withme came out and said to me lift
your eyes now and see what thisis that goes forth.
So I asked what is it?
And he said it is a basket thatis going forth.

(45:46):
What kind of basket?
Well, that's an ephah.
You know what an ephah is?
It's what you would do businesswith and you trade spices and
fruits and vegetables anddifferent things like that.
You used ephahs.
And so this is a trading devicewhich represents economy.

(46:08):
Okay, that's what the ephahrepresents.
It represents an economy.
So it is an economy that isgoing forth.
Okay, where does it go.
He also said this is theirresemblance throughout the earth
.
Here is a lead disc lifted upand this is a woman sitting

(46:29):
inside the basket.
Then he said this is wickedness.
And he thrusts her down intothe basket and threw the lead
cover over its mouth.
Let's unpack that just a littlebit.
So we have an ephah, whichrepresents an economy, but
notice that it has a lead disclifted up that will shove down

(46:50):
the whore inside the economy.
Are you following?
The lead disc is arepresentation of cheating in
weights and measures, because inthe ancient world you would
weigh out your coinage with.
You know if you're buying wheator if you're buying barley, if
you're buying spice or you'redoing.
You would weigh things out inweights and measures.

(47:12):
Well, the thing is, when youcheated, they would put lead
discs on the one side and youwould cheat the other person
through the lead discs.
What he is saying is look, thisis the economy that they're
creating.
The lead disc is the top lidfor it, which means they're
cheating everyone.
This is a major cheat ofeverybody.

(47:33):
It's covering the entire top ofthe economy is cheating.
But notice who's inside theeconomy.
This is wickedness.
This woman Well, it's the samewoman in Revelation 17 and 18.
It's the whore, it's the harlot.

(47:55):
That's who Zechariah is talkingabout.
This is the harlot, but whereis she?
She's in the economy, she'sinside of it.
So the religious aspect of thisBabylonian system is within the
economy.
That's how you see her.
She's not a part of it.
Apart from it, she's in it,which is exactly what you're

(48:17):
seeing right in front of you.
But wait a second, where is shegoing to be taken?
Then I raised my eyes and Ilooked and there were two women.
These are not angels, by theway.
There are no female angels thisis a vision, okay Coming with
the wind in their wings, forthey had wings like the wings of

(48:40):
a stork.
So the idea of a stork, that'san unclean bird.
The aspect of two women meansthat she's being taken.
This economy and her in theeconomy and this unfair economy
with a lead disc is beingnurtured, like women would

(49:06):
nurture something, like a babyor something.
So it's being nurtured.
That's the idea of the womeninvolved.
But the fact that it has storkwings like a baby or something.
So it's being nurtured, that'sthe idea of the women involved,
but the fact that it has storkwings represents that it's
unclean.
The whole thing is unclean.
So, whatever these two aspectsare, they nurture her to a safe

(49:29):
location.
Wait a second.
What's on the three-leggedstool?
To a safe location.
Wait a second.
What's on the three-leggedstool?
The three-legged stool ofBabylon is the kings of the
earth, the merchants of theearth and her One, two.
She's the third.

(49:49):
She's being taken.
So who's mothering her?
It's the kings of the earth andthe merchants of taken.
So who's mothering her?
It's the kings of the earth andthe merchants of the earth that
are mothering her, that arenurturing her, that are taking
care of her, and the fact thatthey're in wings means that
she's being swiftly takensomewhere, and they lifted up
the basket between earth andheaven.

(50:10):
So she will serve, then, as amediator.
That's the idea.
When Christ was crucified, hewas the mediator between heaven
and earth, wasn't he?
And he was lifted up.
That meant that he was nottouching the earth and he was
not in heaven, but he was inbetween.
He was lifted up between.
He's the one mediator betweenGod and man.

(50:32):
But notice what they're doing.
They're lifting her up betweenheaven and earth.
She's a counterfeit to themediation between God and man.
They're using her in thatregard, if you're seeing this,
okay.
So I said to the angel whotalked with me where are you

(50:53):
carrying the basket?
And he said to me to build ahouse for it in the land of
Shinar.
When it is ready, the basketwill be set there on its base.
Well, if I look at the ancientword for Shinar and guess where
that leads me Right, smack dabin the middle of Iraq.
That's where that leads me.
Right smack dab in the middleof Iraq.

(51:13):
That's where it leads me.
And Shinar is where Babylon wasbuilt.
And what Zechariah, the prophet,is saying, what they're doing
right now in the EU, will notstay in the EU.
It will not stay in the UnitedStates.
Yes, it will be global, but thecenter of it will be taken to
Iraq and they're protected bythe kings of the earth and the

(51:37):
merchants of the earth, becausethat's where she's destroyed,
and the kings of the earth andthe merchants of the earth mourn
for her once she is destroyedthere in one day, babylon, the
great city.
So what I'm telling you is ittakes just an amount of faith to
believe that one day, iraq,believe it or not, will be the

(51:59):
center of all economic andcommercial transactions and that
will be the headquarters of theAntichrist.
How that happens, I don't know,but I'm just following
scripture.
Now, again, you're going totake a lot on faith, because
Babylon means Babylon, but yousay, well, nothing's there.
Well, that would be the sameargument you would make to me

(52:19):
before 1948 about Israel.
You would say, well, if I cameto you and I said, look, the
prophets are predicting thatIsrael's going to be back in the
land, and you're like, that'snot going to happen.
Look at the land, it's desolate.
Mark Twain said it was totallydesolate.
There's not a tree standinganywhere.
I saw very few inhabitants.
So, brandon, that's crazy.
It's got to be a spiritualanswer to that.

(52:40):
But 1948 happened, and what wasthe answer?
It was literal, wasn't it?
It became a nation in one day,the nation of Israel.
So the same is true aboutBabylon, even though there's
nothing there yet.
What the Bible says, that thestorks will take her there, the
merchants and the kings of theearth will take her there, and

(53:04):
she's why, when it is ready, thebasket will be set there on its
base.
So it will be created.
There will be a base for her,like an idol, but a base in
which she operates unencumbered,where she's protected in that
area.
Now the question then becomeswhy does she need to be

(53:27):
protected in that area?
Why does she need to be movedto Iraq?
Why is she not protected inLondon?
Why is she not protected in NewYork or China or wherever?
Why does she have to be takento the Middle East, in Iraq, and
protected there?
Why does the Antichrist buildhis headquarters there, I wonder

(53:59):
?
Because obviously she's movedthere because they want to
protect her.
So that is what you must chewon.
I'll give you back the presents.
Terry's wanting the presentsback.

(54:19):
Terry's wanting the presentsback.
Yeah, you know.
So you'll have to wait till weresume back in August, because
this is one you need to study.
You need to understand why.
Okay, so, if you put it alltogether, what you learned?

(54:40):
Okay, you got ESG, you got DEI,all that junk, that's the
horror.
She's embedded in the economy.
Why does she need to be takenout there?
Again, think about the economy,what we've learned.
The economy will be digital.
The economy will be digital thecon.
The economy will need servers.
The economy uh, you know, willwill be ran and it has to be

(55:01):
protected from any enemy thatwould try to take the servers
out because it's.
If it's digital, it has to beon servers.
It has to.
You have to have a server farm,you have to have huge areas in
which, if you're going tocontrol the entire economy from
one place, it has to be veryprotected and you have to have a

(55:23):
lot of space and you have tohave a lot of sunlight if you're
going to run it off solar.
So I don't know, your guess isas good as mine.
But if you're going to have adigital currency, you've got to
have the technology, you've gotto have the protection, and
apparently it's not protected inthe United States, it's not

(55:43):
protected in Europe, it's notprotected anywhere on this
planet other than in Iraq.
But here's the interesting thing.
There's a spiritual principlethat we all need to take away
from this and we gotta get outof here.
The principle is this Noticethat Iraq, babylon, is being put

(56:07):
back where it started.
It started there and after allthese thousands of years, god is
bringing it back where itstarted.
Now.
That's a principle you willthink about, even in your own
life, when there's unfinishedbusiness in your life and you

(56:28):
haven't tied up all the looseends, god will always bring you
back to where it started everytime.
Every time, he will take youright back and say now I need
you to deal with it right here,even though it's been 20, 30, 40
years.
He will circle back and youwill always have to deal with
the unfinished business Sameprinciple, same principle.

(56:51):
And then he will destroyBabylon where it began, right
there.
So, anyway, figure out in thenext few months why Iraq, why
Iraq?
Okay, let's pray, father.
Thank you, lord, for what wecan learn from not only the
rewards aspect tonight, but alsowhat you're doing in the world.
We see the activities of whatyou're allowing.

(57:12):
We see the whores activity.
We see the merchants, we seethe kings of the earth working
now to form this globalcorporate fascism, this global
government that is predicted.
We see it.
Help us to be watchers on thewall, to notify people, to let
people know what's happening, sothey don't fall prey to all of

(57:34):
this and they can get saved andbe raptured before it goes
really bad.
So help us, father, and help ushave a blessed summer.
We pray in Jesus' name, amen.
