Hi, friend. Thank you so much for downloading this podcast, and I hope what you're about to hear

will encourage, equip, edify, enlighten you, and we'll get you out there into that marketplace

of ideas. But before you go, let me ask you to consider this month's Truth Tool. We're a listener-supported

radio, and my Truth Tools are a way of saying thank you for your financial gift. And it is,

after all, Christmas time. So I've chosen the book, The Joy of Jesus by Josh Moody.

It's 25 devotionals that remind us again, even in the midst of this very busy time of year,

exactly what God has done for us. When you think about it, the most wonderful gift ever given wasn't wrapped in paper and tied with a bow.

He was wrapped in swaddling clothes and laid in a manger. This wonderful book, The Joy of Jesus, will remind us again the reason for the season and will help us set our mind on the reality of what God has done for us. And when you think about it, it's pretty overwhelming. So please, your financial gift keeps the program going, and I want you to be encouraged, particularly at Christmas time.

Again, the book is called The Joy of Jesus, and it's yours for a gift of any amount by calling 877 Janet 58. That's 877 Janet 58, or go online to in the market with janetpartial.org. Scroll to the bottom of the page. There's the cover of the book. Click on through and make your donation and I'll send you a copy of the joy of Jesus. Also, you might want to consider becoming a partial partner. Those are our friends, and it's an ever-enlarging circle of friends who give every single month at a level of their own choosing. You'll always get the month's truth tool, but in addition, you will get a weekly newsletter that contains some of my writing and an audio piece just for my partial partners.

So thank you in advance for prayerfully supporting this program.

Extremely rare safety moved by a nation. 17 years of Palestinians of Israelis negotiated. This is a lot of time. We hear a lot of time. way like you're Welcome to the market with Janet Partial.

I am thrilled.

We're going to spend the hour together, and at this point it would be a good idea for you to take out your biblical thinking cap, because you're going to need it this hour.

You know, I'm actually in a state of amazement, and I don't mean that in a good way. I'm stunned, and if I can use it in a better application.

I would have thought that if we were passive students of history, we would understand that

in the 1930s, when we saw a demon-possessed leader, and there's no other way to describe

Hitler, because I'm quite sure that he had a spirit of the Antichrist, and he was absolutely
