JERRY THOMPSON, pastor of New Covenant Community Ministries, International, Moss Point, MS,

This encore broadcast, which originally aired September 14th, was, due to a technical error, not recorded in mp3 format, and, therfore, was not archived. We wanted to re-air this moving, encouraging and challenging interview on the sacrificial labors of volunteer Christians seeking to help rebuild the lives of victims of Hurricane Katrina down in Mississippi, in the name of Jesus Christ, for those of you who missed it. Hopefully this time all will go well as we attempt to record the broadcast on mp3 while re-airing it, so a greater multitude of individuals can listen to the archived program.

Jim Capo: "Sinners In The Hands Of An Angry God"

MP3 Available Here

JIM CAPO, pastor of the Massapequa Church of God, Massapequa, NY, AL STEIN, pastor of the Neighborhood Assembly of God, Bellmore, NY, & DAVID HAUSER, founder of http://www.thesermon1741.com/, will address the theme of Jonathan Edward's sermon "SINNERS IN THE HANDS OF AN ANGRY GOD", the most famous sermon ever preached in American history.

Originally preached by Edwards on July 8th, 1741, in Enfield, Connecticut, this sermon was part of a nationwide revival that changed the course of America for generations. Edwards has long been considered one of the foremost theologians of all time, reaching the lofty position of Princeton University in 1758. This broadcast is especially important when considering the sad fact that the threat of torment Hell is nearly entirely absent from the sermons of many of the most popular preachers today!

During this program we will also promote an upcoming special event at the Massapequa Church of God involving this sermon on Wednesday, September 26th, 7:30pm
(see http://www.thesermon1741.com/upcomingevents.html).

GEOFF VOLKER & STEVE LEHRER: "FILLING & THE LEADING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT"

MP3 Available Here

GEOFF VOLKER & STEVE LEHRER, co-pastors of New Covenant Bible Fellowship in Tempe, Arizona , will address the theme "THE FILLING & THE LEADING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT". Geoff & Steve are also the co-founders of In-Depth Studies , where Goeff is Director & Steve is Biblical Counselor.

The leading of the Spirit and the filling of the Spirit are phrases often used in evangelicalism today… "God led me to quit my job and become a missionary"... “God led me to Lisa and so I just know that she is the woman I should marry”... “Are you living a spirit filled Christian life?"... "Have you been filled with the Spirit?”

The leading of the Spirit is one of the most misunderstood and abused doctrines in evangelicalism today… How is it misunderstood? ...What is the leading of the Spirit? ...How is the leading of the Spirit related to the filling of the Spirit? ...What is the filling of the Spirit? ...Why are these doctrines important and what is the consequences of misunderstanding them? These are just some of the questions Geoff & Steve will seek to answer biblically during this broadcast.

TOM ASCOL: "HYPER-CALVINISM VS. HISTORIC CALVINISM"

MP3 Available Here

TOM ASCOL, the Executive Director of Founders Ministries and Editor of the Founders Journal , will address the theme "HYPER-CALVINISM VS. HISTORIC CALVINISM". Many if not most Evangelicals who are NOT themselves "Calvinists", or, believers in the doctrine that God has total, sovereign control over ALL things, including the salvation of men, frequently erroneously apply the disparaging term "HYPER-Calvinist" to EVERYONE who believes in the Doctrines of Sovereign Grace. Pastor Ascol, who strongly affirms ALL "Five Points of Calvinism", will set out to prove that this improper use of a derogatory label is reckless behavior, and reveals that those who do so are uninformed or misinformed (and so-called scholars who do so have no excuse).

Founders Ministries is a ministry of teaching and encouragement promoting both doctrine and devotion expressed in the Doctrines of Grace and their experiential application to the local church, particularly in the areas of worship and witness. Founders Ministries takes as its theological framework the first recognized confession of faith that Southern Baptists produced, The Abstract of Principles. They desire to encourage the return to and promulgation of the biblical gospel that their Southern Baptist forefathers held dear. Tom Ascol also has been the Pastor of Grace Baptist Church in Cape Coral, Florida since 1986. He received a BS from Texas A & M University and the MDiv and PhD degrees from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. He is editor of the books Reclaiming the Gospel & Reforming Churches and Dear Timothy and has contributed articles and chapters to numerous publications.

CAROLE WHANG SCHUTTER: "SEPTEMBER DAWN"

MP3 Available Here

CAROLE WHANG SCHUTTER, the Evangelical Christian author of the screenplay for the critically acclaimed, extremely controversial motion picture "SEPTEMBER DAWN", starring Academy Award winning actor Jon Voight, and the novel of the same title (see this link for more details).

My co-host for this interview will be LATAYNE C. SCOTT, a Mormon convert to Evangelical Christianity and author of The Mormon Mirage (see http://www.latayne.com/). The film "SEPTEMBER DAWN" is based on the truly historical event known as "The Mountain Meadows Massacre", a horrific event in our nation's history which, ironically, occurred on September 11th, 1857, involving the brutal murder of 120 men, women and children by a Mormon militia. These innocent victims were emigrants, mostly from Arkansas, traveling to California who had the misfortune of passing through the Utah territory during the infamous "Utah War" between Mormon settlers and the United States federal government. These Mormon assassins only spared the lives of 17 of the youngest children.

To hear recent interviews on "Iron Sharpens Iron" that we conducted with former Mormon High Priest and convert to Evangelical Christianity WILLIAM NORMAN GRIGG during which he specifically addressed "The Mountain Meadows Massacre", his own personal testimony of conversion from Mormonism to Christianity and a movie review of "September Dawn" (which originally aired on August 7th & 22nd & September 13th), you can look up the free, archived, downloadable mp3's here.

DAVID KUPELIAN: "MARKETING OF EVIL: How Radicals, Elitists, & Pseudo-Experts Sell Us Corruption Disguised As Freedom " DAY TWO

MP3 Available Here


DAVID KUPELIAN, vice president and managing editor of WorldNetDaily.com and Whistleblower magazine, will return to our program for two days to address the theme of his best-selling book THE MARKETING OF EVIL: How Radicals, Elitists, & Pseudo-Experts Sell Us Corruption Disguised As Freedom (see this link ). After our last interview with David we knew we needed at least two more broadcasts to adequately cover the theme of his extremely controversial masterpiece. PASTOR CLAUDE STAUFFER of Calvary Chapel of Hope in North Amityville, Long Island, NY, will cohost both interviews with me.

Americans have come to tolerate, embrace and even champion many things that would have horrified their parents' generation – from easy divorce and unrestricted abortion-on-demand to extreme body piercing and teaching homosexuality to grade-schoolers. Does that mean today's Americans are inherently more morally confused and depraved than previous generations? Of course not, says veteran journalist David Kupelian. But they have fallen victim to some of the most stunningly brilliant and compelling marketing campaigns in modern history. The Marketing of Evil reveals how much of what Americans once almost universally abhorred has been packaged, perfumed, gift-wrapped and sold to them as though it had great value. Highly skilled marketers, playing on our deeply felt national values of fairness, generosity and tolerance, have persuaded us to embrace as enlightened and noble that which all previous generations since America’s founding regarded as grossly self-destructive – in a word, evil. In this groundbreaking and meticulously researched book, Kupelian peels back the veil of marketing-induced deception to reveal exactly when, where, how, and especially why Americans bought into the lies that now threaten the future of the country.

WILLIAM NORMAN GRIGG: MOVIE REVIEW "SEPTEMBER DAWN"

MP3 Available Here

WILLIAM NORMAN GRIGG, a former High Priest in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ("the Mormons") who converted to Evangelical Christianity, returns to our program to provide a MOVIE REVIEW of the critically acclaimed, extremely controversial motion picture "SEPTEMBER DAWN", starring Academy Award winning actor Jon Voight (see http://www.septemberdawn.net/).

This film is based on the truly historical event known as "The Mountain Meadows Massacre", a horrific event in our nation's history which, ironically, occurred on September 11th, 1857, involving the brutal murder of 120 men, women and children by a Mormon militia. These innocent victims were emigrants, mostly from Arkansas, traveling to California who had the misfortune of passing through the Utah territory during the infamous "Utah War" between Mormon settlers and the United States federal government.

In Mr. Grigg's other recent interviews on "Iron Sharpens Iron", (that he conducted prior to viewing "September Dawn"), he specifically addressed "The Mountain Meadows Massacre" & his own personal testimony of conversion from Mormonism to Christianity (which originally aired on August 7th & 22nd, available to listen to here!).

Be sure to mark your calendars for our interview next Wednesday, September 19th, with CAROLE WHANG SCHUTTER, an Evangelical Christian author who wrote the novel & screenplay upon which "September Dawn" is based! My co-host during that interview will be LATAYNE C. SCOTT, a Mormon convert to Christianity & author of The Mormon Mirage!

STAFF SERGEANT DAVID W. KARNES: "A True Christian Hero on September 11th"

MP3 Available Here

STAFF SERGEANT DAVID W. KARNES, USMC, a true Christian hero on September 11th, 2001, who, while an accountant with Deloitte & Touche in Wilton, CT, located and helped rescue two New York City Port Authority Police Officers, Will Jimeno & John McLoughlin, trapped for hours in the rubble of the collapsed Twin Towers after rushing into the burning World Trade Center with fellow PAPD officers to rescue the lives of others. 2,749 people perished in the Twin Towers attacks (not including the hijackers) and only 20 people were pulled out alive. McLoughlin and Jimeno were numbers 18 and 19.

This is the true story upon which the critically acclaimed motion picture by Academy Award winning director Oliver Stone, "WORLD TRADE CENTER", starring Academy Award winning actor Nicholas Cage (as officer John McLoughlin) is based. The role of Staff Sergeant Karnes, portrayed by Michael Shannon, was a central figure in the film. Karnes, however, did not cooperate in the making of "World Trade Center", and refused to accept a handsome payment for the rights to his own life story.

Karnes later was quoted as saying on the morning of September 11th, after witnessing the attacks upon the WTC with his colleagues on television, “I told people at my office ‘you guys may not realize it, but we're at war right now.' After staying at my desk for a few hours praying and asking God what I should do, I left the office to go to the WTC site.”

Having spent 23 years in the Marine Corps infantry, Karnes got a regulation hair cut, put on his Marine Corps camouflage utility uniform and obtained equipment that included rappelling gear. On his way to ground zero, he drove to the church where he is a member, Bible Baptist Church of Elmont, Long Island (see http://www.biblebaptistchurchelmont.org/), to ask his pastor, Jim Barker, to pray that God would lead him to survivors.

After arriving at the site, by God's providence, Karnes, ran into another Marine, Jason Thomas, and walked with him into the rubble. At the time he only knew his fellow Marine as "Sgt. Thomas," and his full identity was not revealed until years later. The two men found Jimeno & McLoughlin buried in the rubble. Karnes called his wife and sister on his cell phone with instructions to relay to the authorities their whereabouts, and then further risked his own life by crawling into the hole in the rubble where the two PAPD officers were trapped in order to aid in their rescue. Praise be to our Sovereign Lord, the efforts of Karnes & the rescue team that arrived were successful in saving the lives of Jimeno & McLoughlin.

Staff Sergeant Karnes spent a total of nine days at ground zero. Upon returning home, he reenlisted in the Marine Corps Reserve and went on to serve in the Philippines and Iraq, where he served for seventeen months including three tours of duty in Iraq. He is still an active United States Marine today. We are grateful for his service to our country, and for taking the time from his busy schedule to participate in this interview live in WNYG's studio in West Babylon, Long Island, for the second time.

DAVID DYKSTRA: "YEARNING TO BREATHE FREE? THOUGHTS ON IMMIGRATION, ISLAM & FREEDOM "

MP3 Available Here

DAVID DYKSTRA is the author of YEARNING TO BREATHE FREE? THOUGHTS ON IMMIGRATION, ISLAM & FREEDOM . Rev. Dykstra's excellent book is one of the top 100 favorite books of Marvin Olasky of "World Magazine" written over the last 7 years (see here). Here's what a Muslim convert to Christianity, Daniel Raha, said about Yearning to Breathe Free:

"David Dykstra's book is an invaluable resource in these days when Muslims are conspiring in their long-term plan to dominate the United States. As a native from a country which has experienced Islamic extremism for 1,400 years, I take great joy in reading a book that so clearly explains the horrible tenets of this violent religion. I hope by reading this book, Americans will realize the lies of the so-called modern Islamic rulers, who say to the world that they are now sophisticated and that a modern, peaceful, democratic form of Islam can be achieved. It is urgent for westerners to understand that, in reality, the extremist Islamic belief system maintains that people are either Muslim and obey absolutely what the Koran says, or they are Kafers (non believers) and must be killed. Anyone who reads the Koran intelligently will recognize that freedom, peace, and democracy can never be assimilated with the phenomenon called fanatical Islam. Since Islam has given Persians nothing but barbarianism, superstition, cruelty, torture, prisons, and unspeakable ways to die, I hope this book will help to prevent the same situation from happening to the great people of the United States."

MARTIN FROMM and RICHARD SAXON: "ROSH HASHANA & YOM KIPPUR: Opportunities To Lead Our Jewish Friends to JESUS CHRIST, the True Messiah"!

MP3 Available Here

MARTIN FROMM, director of ministry at Beth Yeshua Fellowship in East Northport, Long Island, NY, & and his very dear friend & colleague in Jewish evangelism, RICHARD SAXON, former pastor of Beth Yeshua/House of Jesus in West Sayville, Long Island, NY, will address the theme "ROSH HASHANA & YOM KIPPUR: Opportunities To Lead Our Jewish Friends to JESUS CHRIST, the True Messiah"!

Our guest Marty Fromm, having been raised in a Jewish home in an extremely Anti-Semitic neighborhood the Bronx, NY, during the 1950's, and growing up hating Jesus Christ and Christians (at least the false conceptions he had of both due to the hatred of Jews he experienced from gentiles, who are often erroneously generalized as being "Christians"), miraculously embraced Jesus Christ, "Yeshua Ha'Mashiach", as his Messiah, years later. Richie Saxon is a gentile Christian with a passion to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the Jews. This year, Rosh Hashanah falls on Thursday and Friday September 13 & 14, and Yom Kippur -- The Day of Atonement (Leviticus 23: 26-32) on Saturday, September 22, 2007. Rosh Hashanah & Yom Kippur are basically one "unit" of the holidays, with Sukkot and Simchas Torah another unit. The Jewish New Year and the Day of Atonement are a culmination of a period of introspection started some 30 days before Rosh Hashanah. The Jewish New Year is also known as the Day of Judgement. The period between this day and the Day of Atonement is known as 10 days of Repentance. REPENTANCE & THE ATONEMENT are *pivotal* issues regarding the never-dying souls of men. During this broadcast, Mr. Fromm & Mr. Saxon will instruct us on how to use these Holy Days on the Jewish calendar to demonstrate how the BLOOD OF YESHUA HA'MASHIACH *ALONE* can provide an Atonement for the sins of men, Jew & Gentile alike!!!

Rebroadcast of Wednesday, August 29, 2007

JAMES R. WHITE, noted author, Bible scholar, debater, conference speaker and founder & director of Alpha & Omega Ministries, a theologically Reformed Christian apologetics organization based in Phoenix, Arizona, will address "TEN QUESTIONS FOR A POTENTIAL CONVERT TO ROMAN CATHOLICISM". Dr. White has often pointed to the highly emotional nature of the vast majority of conversionstories to Rome, and has discussed the fact that conversions, per se, do not surprise him in the least. The less biblically sound and grounded post-evangelicalism becomes, the more common such movement in the various religions of men will be. Dr. White asks, among other questions, of the potential convert, "Have you listened to both sides? That is, have you done more than read Rome Sweet Home and listen to a few emotion-tugging conversion stories? Have you actually taken the time to find sound, serious responses to Rome's claims, those offered by writers ever since the Reformation, such as Goode, Whitaker, Salmon, and modern writers?..." Hear more of what Dr. White has to ask, and say, during this extremely controversial broadcast!
