0:00.0	Hello and welcome to Cava Gants was live. Thanks so much for being here with us. Feel
0:19.8	so good to be back here on a Monday. We really appreciate that you take the time. Maybe
0:24.7	it's Tuesday morning if you're on the other side of the date line, but wherever you are,
0:27.9	we're awful glad you're here with us. I am Sikella at your host and what a fine Monday
0:32.8	we have. Second hour Deacon Harold will be here. Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers. One of the
0:37.2	greats in this hour, John Martinoni is our guest, the founder and president of the Bible Christian
0:43.0	Society. You hear him all the time or you have heard him many, many times on the EWTN Global
0:48.2	Catholic Radio Network, the TV network, all of that. John Martinoni, thanks very much for

1:51.2	trinity or incarnation or the phrase alter-call, not in the Bible. But the principles of purgatory
1:59.2	most definitely are in the Bible. And when I ever I'm talking about purgatory in scripture,
