BOILING A FROG is about America’s resemblance to the small green amphibian sitting in a pan of cold water that is slowly being heated up. By the time the frog realizes what is happening, it is boiled to death. As a nation, we have become so complacent that we have missed the signs that we are being cooked like that poor creature.

Communism aka socialism aka progressivism aka liberalism has tried breaking down our doors of freedom for decades and has met with the stubborn determination of patriots who built and defended America.

Thanks to the media, government education, and treasonous politicians, the move to subtle indoctrination is wearing down our resistance. Is it too late to “drain the swamp,” turn down the heat, force common sense to rule once again? It depends on whether or not you are willing to fight or surrender your rights. Chaplain R.T. Byrum tells it like it is in Boiling a Frog.

In Revelation 3:15-16, The Apostle John recorded the message to the ancient church in Laodicea, “I know your works: you are neither cold nor hot. Would that you were either cold or hot! So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth.”

The modern application of that scripture describes people who proudly declare themselves to be “Independent, moderate or neutral” when it comes to casting their hard won vote for an America that is free, or one that is enslaved under tyranny.

Such people vote a particular way because their parents did, or because they are swayed by a biased media, or simply because they never took time to research the background of their chosen candidate.

Some have said, “I vote for the person, not the party.” Let’s be real…if a candidate runs on the agenda of his or her party you are voting for the party. How is that working out for your quality of life?

Elections have incredible consequences for good or for bad. Study to make the right decisions and vote accordingly. Don’t be a Laodicea sitting on the fence…you could get hurt in the end.

Romans 14:11 contains this prophetic statement: “AND EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW…” That does not refer to the offensive demonstration by 49’s NFL player Colin Kaepernick’s taking a knee during the National Anthem. His “protest” against oppression of blacks drove away viewers on both sides of the debate, the patriotic Americans and the “woke” community. The ESPN sports channel lost more than 4 million viewers and saw revenue drop over $52 million as offended fans tuned out on such politics injected into football.

What made the foolish demonstration worse was that Colin’s $20 million dollar net worth was not being used to improve the lives of his “brothers” and “sisters” of color, but to enrich his own life with mansions, apartments, and a collection of expensive cars.

Kaepernick, for now, is out of the limelight and the NFL is slowly recovering, but has any good resulted from the fiasco? Apparently not for black Americans are still being oppressed (mostly by other blacks) and good relations between races are never improved by attacking the country that has done more to abolish slavery than any other in history.

The answer lies in recognizing the powers driving such hatred. It is time that true Americans recognize that the enemy is not white or black or rich or poor, but rather a deep state organization that is using class warfare to destroy this nation.

There is a time coming when the entire world will take a knee…not at a sporting event, but…just hit the play button and you will understand.

This message, “An Open Letter to an American on the Left” is addressed to those who, for whatever reason, hate America, mock God, and vote against freedom. It also serves as a reminder to conservatives and Christians that we are vulnerable to indoctrination by those who see to destroy what God has blessed us with and what many have toiled and died to preserve.

Chaplain Byrum compares this present world to a sinking ocean liner. Great holes caused by greed, lust, hate, and envy are inevitably taking it on a final journey down to destruction.

It is presented in answer to a recent public comment by a liberal American who stated that, “Christians are arrogant about their faith in their God.” In truth, we are humbled by our faith, and it pains us to see anyone blinded by lack of knowledge in danger of losing out on the incredible days that will follow the coming wrath of God.

This program is one of warning, but it is also one of hope.

THIS IS NOT YOUR FATHER’S DEMOCRATIC PARTY—Chaplain R.T. Byrum shows how the once great balance between left and right, red and blue, has been eroding in the last few decades. Socialism, which Karl Marx described as the first step towards communism, has crept into government, education and even the media. When and how did that change take place, and more importantly, how can Americans who love their country fight it?

Joseph Goebbels, Hitler’s Propaganda Minister, who said: “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such a time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

The U.S. is in danger of surrendering our God-given rights and freedoms to the big lies coming from the elitists who have taken over the Democratic Party. It will take voters from both sides of the spectrum to beat them back and restore what they have destroyed. It is your right and your responsibility to vote. For the sake of our nation, do it wisely…for there may not be another chance.

The time for tiptoeing around the truth is past. America is on the slippery slope to becoming a third-world communist satellite. Today’s message is: “AMERICA HAS BEEN BETRAYED.” Attacks from outside our borders by hostile countries is terrorism. Attacks from inside our borders by people presumed to be Americans is tyranny. Even if you voted the liberal ticket, I hope you will take the few minutes to learn what socialist insurgents have done to the party of your parents and grandparents. Loyalty to those who are destroying your freedom, your prosperity and even your lives is not a virtue, but rather a surrender of your God-given rights. You will learn the difference between the mob rule of democracy compared to the representative rule of our constitutional republic. You will understand the value and necessity of the Electoral College that the Left wants to abolish. You will also hear from the story of a woman who escaped Romania’s communist rule and, perhaps better than many of us, she truly appreciates America. She wrote, “I came to understand and appreciate capitalism, the one system that had the most dramatic effect in elevating human civilization.” If true lovers of freedom fail to grasp that truth before entering the voting booth, we are in danger of losing everything

A NEW BIRTH OF FREEDOM—In 1893, Abraham Lincoln delivered his famous Gettysburg address which included these closing words, “…from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”  

Once again, enemies within our borders are threatening to destroy what so many have fought, worked and even died for. Politicians, educators and even the once unbiased media have supported everything from banning God from public events, to teaching Critical Race Theory and gender dysphoria. These and many other socialist indoctrinations are especially poisoning our young people…our next generation.

The next decisive battle may not be fought with bullets as in Lexington and Concord, but with ballots at the upcoming all future elections. Chaplain R.T. Byrum explains what patriotic Americans must do to bring about a New Birth of Freedom. If we fail, there may be no third opportunity.

What did Jesus mean when He said in Matthew 11:28, “Come unto me, all who labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest…”?

He was talking about you and me when it seems that life piles on troubles that act as burdens on our hearts and minds that crush our spirits and steal our joy. So many people ask, “Why does a merciful God allow that to happen to His children?” A more important question, “is God really to blame for all our afflictions?”

If you are a live human being, you experience burdens of sickness, unemployment, injury and even guilt. Want to learn how to cast off those troubles that are wearing you down?

Stay tuned for that is the topic of today’s program with Chaplain R.T. Byrum.
