[00:00:00] Speaker A: The views and opinions of the hosts and guests are their own and do not necessarily reflect the views of the management and staff of Guardian Radio. [00:00:26] Speaker B: It. [00:00:55] Speaker C: Guardian Radio today is brought to you by Alive, Burger King, the Cleveland Clinic, Commonwealth Bank, Popeyes, Printmasters and Ron's Electric Motors. [00:01:06] Speaker A: I'm striving. [00:01:10] Speaker B: Trying to make it through. [00:01:14] Speaker A: This barreling yes sir but as I. [00:01:20] Speaker B: Go from day to day. [00:01:25] Speaker A: Trust me child come on I hold your hand I'm coming up. [00:01:39] Speaker C: On the rough side. [00:01:44] Speaker A: Of the mountain Take your time and say it that's all right I must hold hold on to God yes sir. [00:01:56] Speaker C: Powerful hand oh yeah I'm coming I. [00:02:02] Speaker A: Am coming up the rough side of the mountain Know what side of the mountain you are on today but I was able to sit here in studio and listen to some rough comments coming across the air. And you know, we bohemian people all. I could simply say you all just know how to row. Y' all just like to row. You all like to make plenty, plenty noise. I don't know if your noise making is going to affect change, but you'll row. But. This is Guardian Radio Talk Radio today, 96.9 FM. I am Garth Maynard Roseborough. Mr. Hakon, Uncle Sara, the brilliant one is not here today. He's normally here on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I have a brilliant one with me myself, Darvin with a D like in dog. Darwin Russell is sitting in with me here today and on Sunday he will be leading out in our remark program 5 to 6:30 on Sunday. I do believe Gabby is going to stop in to say hello to him on Sunday as she promotes the show for Monday where we'll be having the leader of the Royal Opposition Michael C. Pintard for two hours. And I've been made to understand that he will be taking questions and so we have much to discuss, much to talk about. I did hear Darwin the people mentioning talks about politics and possible by elections and I heard them telling Zayn Newry that they believe I cushioned the PLP and they believe that sometimes he sound like a plp and to me it's all nonsensical. Not saying that you are idiotic, I'm just simply saying that your verbiage to me doesn't get us one step further to the objective of us creating a greater nation. It almost seems to me as if you people, and I'm not afraid I keep telling you all this and I talk strongly to you because it seems to me that you are the type people who are anti advancement, you are anti progress. If it doesn't sound good to you? You're prepared to stop the entire caravan from crossing into the promised land in the name of opinion. And I think it's foolish. I think it's very, very foolish. I think for the most part, you yourself, if you were to take time to look into the mirror, you would find that you yourself, that you are biased and that anyone who doesn't agree with your opinion, you are prepared to dismiss them as they being biased and wrong. I think once they agree with you or they are on the same principles as you, you figure, I have a choir, I got a church, I got somebody in my bandwagon and this is the direction that everyone needs to go in. This was the problem. Darwin Russell with the Children of Israel. Too many people who felt as if their opinion mattered. No one's prepared to take a directive. One directive says, let's continue on to the promised land. The next director says, you know what? Let's build a golden calf. The next director says, let's go back to Egypt. That's why it took them 40 years. I'm trying to help you out here. You don't have to listen to me. You can change the channel, but I'm going to tell you the truth. And the truth, it always hurts for the most part, unless you're prepared to accept the truth and move forward. Now, could my truth be wrong? Absolutely. If I am wrong in my own opinion. You have 6232. 325-4316. You got Darvin laughing 325-4259. Anywhere from the family of violence. I know you like that. 300-5720 or you can text in at 422-4796. Now, you heard F.C. barnes and coming up the rough side of the mountain today. And so I'm so glad today that as we go up this mountain I have my very, very good friend, a great businessman. For anyone who wants a special speaker to talk on business ideas or assisting you with economics of that sort, this is the man you can call in. He'll be more than happy to not only assist you, but he'll be happy to even customize a program right here at Guardian Radio for you. And I've always opened the chair and the microphone to him on Thursdays, Fridays, Sundays or Mondays. And so anything that's really pressing you, I want you to know that Guardian Radio has the personnel here that we can address many of the questions that you may have to make your life not here to just perform like a circus. We are Actually here to drop a nugget into your heart, into your brain. And guess what? We may not be the creator of that nugget, it may be you creating a nugget for everyone else. And so that's why we're opening the lines to you today. We're going to let you talk, but you know, today I came here for war. Now, in terms of politics, before Darwin gets the microphone, I told you, I am not going to speak about politics election wise until 14 days has passed. Now I think five of those 14 has passed. We got nine more days to go. I heard you all talking about election with this one saying that one say, no, I'm not interested until the time has actually expired. But I have been on the ground. I want you to know I am doing my homework and by the time I get back here, I am going to bring a force to be reckoned with in terms of what, where we should go politically at that particular time. But today I want to talk a little bit about the church, the purpose of this church, what we have done in terms of adulterating, in terms of compromising. I do believe that many of the issues of our society, the church, the building has been used in an erroneous way but. Darvin Russell, welcome to the show, sir. Say hello to the people. It's a Friday. [00:08:20] Speaker D: Good afternoon, my dear friend. Good afternoon to the nation. It is, it's a good Friday. It's a good Friday to be spending in the Commonwealth of the Bahamas. And I would, I would admonish you, my friend, this truth does not require belief. [00:08:35] Speaker A: I like that, I really do. [00:08:37] Speaker D: I could drop that on you today. [00:08:39] Speaker A: Let me tell you, I started this conversation yesterday and we had a great show yesterday, by the way. And I do appreciate those who tuned in. Everywhere I went yesterday, people shouting to me, great show. It was a really good show. Talked a little bit about agriculture, something that you're also interested in. [00:08:54] Speaker D: No, I listened to the whole, I was actually able to listen to the whole show. You got in a little bit of trouble yesterday. It's all that flirting on the air and thing. [00:09:02] Speaker A: I said no, no, no, no telling you handsome. [00:09:05] Speaker D: I said what is going on in the Cornwall of the bunch? [00:09:10] Speaker A: No trouble at all. [00:09:12] Speaker D: It was a good, I wanted the show to be a little longer because I actually wanted to hear more feedback on how Bartard went so bad. [00:09:21] Speaker A: This is why I asked him to come back next week, Thursday. I know he wasn't finished and to be fair to Darvin, he wasn't able to be here Yesterday because of business commitments. But if he is free on Thursday. So I like variation too, people. Okay, what I could do, if Darwin is available, I'll let Darvin host that show next week, Thursday, come to next. So that he can ask the questions that he wants to ask and you can get some more, you know, some more depth. [00:09:45] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:09:46] Speaker A: Is that okay? [00:09:46] Speaker D: Yeah, it's absolutely fine. [00:09:47] Speaker B: Good. [00:09:48] Speaker A: I'll call on the line, call a call and I start the show. You think they gone? [00:09:51] Speaker D: Yeah, mine hadn't gone. [00:09:52] Speaker A: They trying to get me in trouble. That's what's happening. Okay, here's my issue, folks. And yesterday, before I started the show, I wanted to just get this out to you. I said I went out to the canteen. It's right across the street from Vaughn Millers church. [00:10:06] Speaker D: Okay. [00:10:07] Speaker A: And you know, it was her birthday, so I went there to get breakfast. Yes, yes. I was in a position to cook breakfast yesterday. So let me go and get some breakfast. And the gentleman walks up to me, my neighbor, he says, man, you see all that land they got for the church down the road? And I probably saw it, but I didn't really pay attention to it because I'm that type of guy. I don't pay attention to too many people's business. And he said, man of God, I got a problem with that. Now we all know church is a good thing. It's a great thing that if we can get more people to find God and go into a house of worship, whichever your faith is, whatever your faith is, I think that's a good thing. But I took my time and I drove and I looked over. And in my spirit, whether you want to say it was God or the devil crucify me, I'm going to tell you what came into my spirit. What came into my spirit was that so many churches and the numbers continue to increase and crown land issued and given. Because that land is actually where the old well field was off of Kamaicha Road. [00:11:15] Speaker D: Okay. [00:11:15] Speaker A: You see, all that land is in controversy as to, you know, people want to get their acre and they go in there with a bulldozer and they cut it down. [00:11:23] Speaker D: This is west of Bacardi Road. [00:11:25] Speaker A: Yes. [00:11:25] Speaker D: Okay. [00:11:26] Speaker A: And they're cutting the thing down and all the pine trees are disappearing. And listening to Arnold Dorset yesterday, remember he talked about the pine yards in the northern part of the country and then of course to the southern coppice. [00:11:40] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:11:40] Speaker A: And I really enjoyed that particular point. But the little pine yard in Nassau, you mowing that whole entire thing down and you need to understand the value of pine. Pine purifies water underneath the soil. That's what it does. It gives you pure water, which means then that all of us who have well pumps in that area, this is why our water is so pure in that area. If you also understand that we have had previous oil spills in that particular constituency and area, it makes the pine trees even much more important. But we have yet said, you know what, what we want to do, we want to clear down. We're going to give whatever issuance for church to be built there. And they have this huge expanse of land for church. Now, am I against a new church? Absolutely not. Am I interested in people who have found God and found faith and says, you know what? I want to build a house of the Lord? Absolutely not. That is not what I am saying. I want you people to take the cotton out of your ear and listen to what I'm saying to you. What I am saying is that if we have just yesterday and the 5,000 churches are not impactful to the point where the issues of our country should now be going in reverse, but instead they continue to progress forward. I am asking Darwin Russell, why are we investing so much more into churches that are not productive? So in my mind, I'm saying that if we're going to establish a new building a new church, then I want to say maybe we as a nation need to find out why. Because I feel there should be some criteria involved in you getting this new land and this new church. Are you presently visiting the prison? Are you presently visiting the hospital? Are you presently counseling married couples in your community? Are you counseling children that are going through depression? Are you counseling people who are drug addicted? Are you encouraging people who want to get away from tendencies like sexual. What do you call it again now? [00:13:44] Speaker D: Deviants. [00:13:44] Speaker A: Deviants and habits. And so, yeah, where is the church in all of this? Can you tell me today that the church is strong enough in your mind that you know that we are about to win the war on violence in this country? This is what I'm talking about. Oh, this old heretic, we need to put him on the stake and burn him. Okay, let me let some other people burn me. I know what I'm about to say may be new to some of you, but most of you know what I'm about to say is true. Because the people that I speak about, I've been surrounded by them all my life. I'm not one of them, but I love them just as human beings, as God has created them. Why is it that when people leave Port au Prince, Port au Pay, Haiti, and they come on a boat, that someone is waiting here to pick them up. I want to ask you a question. If you're an adult migrant coming on a boat to this country, you're not attending the University of Bahamas, you're not attending any of the training colleges, you're not attaining attending any of the after school classes at any of the high schools. Yet overnight you're learning English, you're learning a trade or skill set. You know where to go, you know what to say, you know when to appear, you know when to disappear. Who is training these people and where are they getting that training? Now? I know, I know of one or two of those churches that train their people. I also hear, and I need someone to substantiate this for me, that once illegals are in a church building lawfully, you're not allowed by immigration standards to remove them from that building, detain them and ship them back home. I want that to sink in. I'm going to let Darvin say anything he wants to say to that before we go to a break. Go ahead, Darvin. That's where my thought is today. Because you're talking about church. And whereas the church is a house of praise for you, it's also supposed to be a house of education for you. But understand that it's also a house of salvation for these people and it's also how they're learning the ways of a new land. Talk to me. [00:16:00] Speaker D: Well, I mean, the church also is an institution that is supposed to be following law. So then the question you have to ask yourself is, is it right for a church to knowingly facilitate the entry of illegal migrants into a country? [00:16:20] Speaker A: That's it. [00:16:21] Speaker D: Okay, so that's a bigger, more fundamental question. I mean, and I know those of you out there that are biblical scholars can point to the script that speaks about not being entertaining strangers in your land. And I don't know, you know, the historical context of that, of that verse. And absent that, I can't speak intelligently on the context of it during that day and time and why the Bible included it and how it's probably been misinterpreted in its modern day incarnation. I am not sure that that scripture, in my own humble opinion, was to be used as a justification for the facilitation of illegal migration. I would find it hard to believe that a book that was written to provide guidance to do that which is right could be interpreted, not to say could be interpreted, was meant to facilitate something that is wrong. So I would have a. I would have a challenge with that being you using that scripture to interpret what you're doing. Is that the other question that I would have would be are there rules that govern the church losing its license when the pastor or the church is known to facilitate illegal activity? Because would we be saying the same thing if. If the church opened out of the back door, they were selling liquor illegally. [00:18:02] Speaker A: But I know some pastors that actually hid cocaine and marijuana in the pulpit because they knew it was safe enough. [00:18:09] Speaker D: Churches used for money laundering. Is that appropriate? So even if we take out the inflamed issue of illegal migration, this is about sin and morality and something that is illegal. Should the church be exonerated by the nature of the institution from upholding the very laws of the land that it finds itself residing in? And I would say that obviously the church should be held accountable. [00:18:40] Speaker A: I like it. David Ross. So call on the line. Go ahead. Good afternoon. [00:18:45] Speaker B: Mr. Rose is a surname or a middle name? [00:18:51] Speaker D: Rose Bar is his last name. [00:18:53] Speaker A: Rose by last name. [00:18:55] Speaker B: And where's the name? [00:18:58] Speaker A: North Carolina. [00:18:59] Speaker B: Rose Bars is from North Carolina? [00:19:02] Speaker A: Yep. Go and google it. It's a place called Rosevir North Carolina. [00:19:06] Speaker B: I know many Haitians who locked in the US borders as well. [00:19:09] Speaker A: Your. Your Haitian people do what? [00:19:11] Speaker B: I know many Haitians who last name is US Borrowers as well. [00:19:14] Speaker A: You wouldn't know them from North Carolina, sir. [00:19:17] Speaker B: Okay, yeah. [00:19:19] Speaker A: Y' all keep trying to figure out where the hell are you from. I'm from Mars. If you really want to know where I'm from, I'm from Mars. Roseboro is from Mars. You know, Maynard is my middle name, which means brave and hard. That's why I scared of you. Come and bring it. You will see my family, I had about 120 of them here on a cruise from North Carolina two years ago. I've had my aunt those on Zedness where we talk about them visiting the Bahamas. And if you look at baseball, if this person is old enough, you know that one of the greatest catchers of all time from the Brooklyn Dodgers is my uncle Johnny Rosebarrow. [00:19:57] Speaker D: Go ahead then. [00:19:58] Speaker A: I don't know who they playing with. They ain't playing with me, but. Hey, kermit. Guardian Radio 96.9 FM. Hey, let's take a break. But this kid here, Vincent Sailor Norris in the school there Bible College, that's where my biological father is from. And I was born here in the Bahamas July 14, 1969 in a place called Princess Margaret Hospital that still needs More people like me. We'll be right back. I'm coming up low. [00:20:34] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:20:35] Speaker A: Thank you, Jesus. [00:20:37] Speaker B: Or don't settle for ordinary when you. [00:20:39] Speaker A: Can have the Farmhouse King only at Burger King Nassau. It's back. [00:20:44] Speaker B: Sink your teeth into 100% flame grilled. [00:20:47] Speaker A: Beef stacked with crisp bacon, melty American cheese, crispy onions, a fried egg, and the bull sauce that adds the perfect kick for a flavor sensation fit for a king. Grab the Farmhouse King as a combo with fries and a drink. Or go all in with the Farmhouse King's favorite feast. It's bigger, it's better, and it's only. [00:21:05] Speaker B: At Burger King Nassau. [00:21:11] Speaker A: Don't wait for a storm to arrive. [00:21:13] Speaker C: Stock up on hurricane supplies, make home. [00:21:15] Speaker A: Repairs, purchase a generator and more this hurricane season with a fidelity personal only. Make that move today. Call 356-7764. Fidelity. [00:21:29] Speaker C: We're good for you. When it comes to hearts at Cleveland Clinic, you can't miss a beat. You seek the best care possible, work with the brightest minds, and leave no stone unturned to get to the heart of the matter. Because understanding is always the first step to overcort in the world. See how we're advancing the future of heart care at Cleveland Clinic today. [00:22:02] Speaker A: Come on out. [00:22:03] Speaker B: Hold your hand. [00:22:07] Speaker A: I'm coming up. [00:22:13] Speaker C: On the rough side. [00:22:17] Speaker B: Boy. [00:22:18] Speaker A: Tell you, boy, they always trying to rough Roseboro up, eh? But the man say they got some people with the last name Rosebarrow that he knows from Haiti. I got to meet these people. I gotta find out how my family get all the way down there. Because anyone who understands how slavery worked between Africa, the Americas, and the Caribbean, we know we all came through the Americas, but I need to find out how we get down there, you know? But Darwin just teased me and said, boy, maybe. Maybe they see your name and maybe they borrow that. You mean they borrowed my name, too. [00:22:50] Speaker D: Borrowing your name. [00:22:50] Speaker A: My Lord, have mercy. David. The person said, what is illegal is not always immoral. Asylum is not the same thing as hiding drugs or selling alcohol. [00:23:00] Speaker D: That's a great. That's actually a really great observation. So. So. And I'm glad they actually raised that. That point. If you believe that the migrants here are coming here to legally seek asylum, please show me the court cases where they are doing that. Please also demonstrate to me what is the basis for their asylum. Are they fleeing actual political tyranny, or is it because a nation is poor? It's just because your nation is poor and in turmoil. Sufficient justification for a person to seek asylum. These are just questions that I have but it's a fair point. But we, you know, asylum is still up to the host nation to grant. There's nothing automatic about asylum. You put in a petition because you're seeking asylum is not automatic. And as far as I'm concerned, the fundamental problems is the way that we administer this country is because we lack transparency, we're allowed to speculate. First of all, I do not believe that if you are seeking asylum in a place where there is an embassy of the country that you wish to seek asylum to, that should be applied for in the country that you are residing. Only after asylum is granted should you then get on a plane to come to your new country that has granted you asylum. Right, but because we allow persons to do that, then what other claim would they have to come to the Bahamas to reside potentially legally other than to ask for asylum? But no, that texter probably knows full well that that is not what's going on in this country. There is no consistent process, no professional or no above board way that all of these migrants are coming into the country seeking asylum. And the right to stay in this country legally. That's the problem that I have. [00:25:20] Speaker A: Yeah, I like it. This text says, didn't the church condone slavery? So hasn't a precedent been set with regards to what the church feels is right or just this person said they just want to be the devil's advocate? [00:25:39] Speaker D: Well, I mean, the church, the church that they're speaking about is, I believe, with one denomination, if I remember my history correctly, the church also tacitly and overtly participated the world in the abuse of boys for many, many years. But people have to be able to separate the church from the pastors or priests that hold an office in the church. Because this is exactly how we've been able over the years to further demonize and erode the church's influence around the world. Because we have a tendency when there is an infraction, a malfeasance, an illegality performed by a member of the church body to castigate the entire body. And that's very unfortunate and very dangerous because we never do that outside of the church. We don't say that I had a bad boss. Therefore all bosses in corporate are bad. We don't do that. Private institutions are evil. We don't do that. But we do that with the church. There was a bad priest, a bad pastor that may have molested you, may have raped you, may have stolen from you, may have swindled you. The church is what's described as horrible. [00:27:09] Speaker A: Well, you know, I'm taking a lesson here today because, you know, I've been heavily involved in church work and I actually admire the fact that they're taking their people and educating their people within the walls of their church and giving them skill sets. So if I'm working, you come here on the boat, clothes on your back. You arrive. I know once I arrive, I gotta call this number. Darwin Russell, you answer the phone. I never met you before, but I understand that this is the contact I need to make once I arrive. [00:27:49] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:27:50] Speaker A: Might you some of the. Of the underground railroad in America. [00:27:52] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:27:52] Speaker A: Similar. You see, Similar, similar, similar strategy. And so a bus, a van, a work truck, whatever picks you up. [00:28:00] Speaker D: Yes. [00:28:00] Speaker A: And we take you immediately to the church because we know once you reach the church door, you're safe once you're there. Orientation. My name is Darwin Russell. I'm responsible for you. This is pastor Rose Burrow. He's the pastor of this church. Any questions you have, these are two numbers you can call. You'll be staying with a family that we'll introduce you to. The cost for you coming here is $5,000. And the person that you're responsible to paying that to each month in this installment or this payment is Pastor Rosebarrow. Once that has been completed, we will give you, by the time allotted, a work permit, SVU for legal status, residency or citizenship. [00:28:51] Speaker D: This is organized trafficking. [00:28:53] Speaker A: It is organized. It is organized. When you speak of a Christianity, you talk about organized religion. [00:29:00] Speaker D: Yes. [00:29:01] Speaker A: I'm saying to you people with your tuck shop church, stop doing tuck shop foolishness. You can do the same thing with your congregation. Yeah. Some children in the church go to Queens College. Some go to St. Augustine's College. Some go to government High. Some go to CH. Reeves. I get it. But what prevents you now from opening the doors of your church that only opens one day a week for four hours? And sorry for demonizing the church today, Darvin, but I said I've been in the church and you come in with your pocket empty and leave with it full and everybody else lose some money and you're not open during the course of the week for six days. There's so much that can be accomplished in the six days in order for me to say, as a government, I'm going to give you an acre, crown land to build your church on. This is my little feelings I get into today. It has to make sense to me. So once you have your church doors open two, three days a week, we have, like I said, after school tutorials. Your children in your church should be the ones getting as in the school system and B's in the school system. While everyone else is getting the D grade average, you stand head and shoulders above everyone else. This is the story in the book of Daniel where Daniel and his friends who didn't eat the king's meat was seen to be more brilliant than all the rest. So that they figured, you know what, it must be the food they eaten. Let's feed everybody what we're feeding them so we can get more brilliant people. I don't know why we hate brilliant people in this country. We need to encourage brilliance in the church. You need to find out who. Who's going through a rough time in terms of paying their mortgage. If two parents are working, one loses their job. How do you maintain a child in private school? How do you keep the mortgage going? Does a church have an in house system or a fund available that a tithe paying family can have three, four months until they can find a new job? I'm just talking like this from a church perspective because the walls of our society, the social situations of our society can be corrected right within the walls of a ch. This is what I'm saying to you. And there are people in the church like yourself, Darwin Russell, you ain't going to talk all your business, but you're a businessman. You sow seeds in people's lives. Yesterday someone said to me, I like your shades. I took it off. A young lady goes to high school. I took it off and I gave it to her. I didn't ask her for no favors. I didn't ask. I took it off. I gave it to her. That's your shades. I can do that. This is what I do. The church meeting too. You don't have to wait for anyone to say to you, let us go through Pinewood Gardens. I like to pick on Pinewood Gardens. We heard there was an incident last night. We heard that a family, they were shooken up last night. They heard gunshots in the near distance and I just want to go to that particular family and give them some counsel. [00:31:41] Speaker D: Yes. [00:31:43] Speaker A: How are you all feeling? Well, you know, I'm young pastor. We don't feel comfortable in this neighborhood. Well then why don't you come and attend the church On Tuesday nights we have a session where we teach people how to increase their financial well being. And then we can actually find an area in your providence where you can possibly relocate to where you can feel much safer. Or maybe as a church, collectively we can buy this 10 acres of land with the ambition that we want to start our own subdivision. Wall it in, gate it in. Everybody that feels safe because everybody knows everybody building through the walls and doors of a church because they are doing it. They're not. I mean, the evidence is there. Who is driving the big, heavy trucks in our country? They are. Who's mixing the cement? They are. Who's doing the carpentry? They are. Who's doing the electrical? They are. They're doing everything necessary that if Darwin Russell goes to them tomorrow, say, you know what? I need a contractor, and I want my house built down to the sand coming in your yard. The man driving a truck and a tractor. They come from Saudi here. Why can't our people do the same thing? [00:32:48] Speaker D: Can I? [00:32:49] Speaker A: Of course you can. [00:32:49] Speaker D: Okay. You know, I love these conversations that you and I have sometimes, you know, it's. It's almost like we just allow the public. [00:32:55] Speaker A: And I'm not angry, by the way. I'm just passionate. [00:32:57] Speaker D: No, no. You know, you talking to me, you ain't going to justify that. [00:32:59] Speaker A: Okay, good. [00:33:01] Speaker D: But these are great conversations to have, and I'm. And I'm privileged to be able to have them on national radio because they're important, and I like that. The dialogue that we can have is free of this emotive, sometimes irrational conversations that has a tendency to seep out too much in our nation. But let me say this to you. One of the things that I think is so important is for us to be responsible as people with a microphone to speak knowledgeably about these issues. Now, you know where I sit in my church body and how involved I am, whether at the level that I'm sitting now or in previous levels, the Bahamian people have to understand that as much as church is a business, the way that you want to think about business, the church is primarily a volunteer organization. The people do what they do for their church body, oftentimes unselfishly, without financial reward, and they do it at great expense to their own families. Second point. The average church in this country, I would argue, has less than 100 members. Why is that less than 100? [00:34:22] Speaker A: I don't want to detract from. [00:34:23] Speaker D: No, no, no, I won't. You won't detract. And I will answer that when I'm done, has less than 100 members. You can talk to pastors through the length and breadth of this nation and find out what their average offering intake is on a Sunday. And I would be surprised if they collect $500. [00:34:42] Speaker A: On a Sunday. [00:34:42] Speaker D: On a Sunday. [00:34:43] Speaker A: So 500 times four weeks is $2,000. [00:34:47] Speaker D: Okay. [00:34:47] Speaker A: Okay. [00:34:48] Speaker D: So the light bill has to be paid. Pastor may or may not get a stipend of some type. The church may or may not have a bus of some type. Church is asked. Now, church may or may not have a mortgage paying for the little land and the building that they were able to. To struggle to build. The church is now asked, and I'm not picking on you, my friend, I'm just answering. So the church is now asked to open its doors beyond Sunday. And Sunday it can open its doors because the parishioners are off from work. So they are allowed to use their volunteer hours to participate in church activity. But now they're asked to open their doors and the people working there need to be unpaid because the church don't have the money to pay them after the light bulb and gone. And these are the very same people that in their minds can't afford to pay tithes. [00:35:38] Speaker A: Okay, I see where you're trying to go. [00:35:39] Speaker D: No, no, I ain't trying, but I got. [00:35:41] Speaker A: I got a response for that. [00:35:42] Speaker D: No, no, no, I can let you talk. [00:35:43] Speaker A: Okay, go ahead. [00:35:44] Speaker D: So. So now this very body that is asked to do yeoman's work, heavy lifting, that is under resourced to do the very thing it's being asked to do, and yet they still show up in thousands, by the thousands for volunteer activity. These church parishioners throughout the length and breadth of this nation go into hospitals, they go into these very communities. They have food giveaways, health giveaways, they visit the prison. These are the very same people that are doing this. And the very people that criticize them aren't the ones volunteering their time, talents and energies. So when we ask them to do more, I ask to be. Coming from the example that you raised about what's going on in the Haitian church, I found it interesting that as a part of your discourse, you talked about a payment that is to be rendered. The Bible says money answereth all things. Whatever that number is that they have to pay is being given to the pastor whether or not he gets a cut of it. Whether or not the church gets a cut of it, I don't know. I'm not casting dispersions one way or the other. But I am saying to you that those very churches that facilitate that illegal activity, I promise you, are not doing it through altruism or volunteerism. They or some persons are being paid to facilitate such an elaborate network of criminal activity. [00:37:21] Speaker A: I hear you. And that is going to be a view and I'm going To say this to you, you'd be surprised to know how the government of the Bahamas sponsors a number of ministries in this country for feeding programs. [00:37:36] Speaker D: I wouldn't be surprised. [00:37:37] Speaker A: Social services. Their hands are full. Entirely full. This is why I'm looking at the spirit of helping your brother. Because the church, you're correct, would not always have the monies for $2,000 a month. Let me tell you why people are so critical of your $2,000 a month. Because they know you. We know you. We know you when you had hole in your socks and hole in your shoes and hole in your pants, all of a sudden you got a church and now you're living by the lake. They got a problem with that. Now you're wearing Gucci and Versace, man. They got to say, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. And then they look at who in your church. Dr. Darwin Russell in there, and he's a Thai paying member. And they then calculating your salary, oh, he got to be making at least 8,000 or more a month. 8,000. 10% of that is stupid. [00:38:23] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:38:23] Speaker A: Oh, we know degrade people for real, you know, we know numbers, we know money. [00:38:28] Speaker B: Huh? [00:38:29] Speaker A: We see who driving up in this church in BMW and Mercedes Benz. Eh? We know. I mean, dumb. And so what I'm saying to you is that when people open a church, I also ask the question, why so many churches? You said we got all these churches that may have less than 100 members. And I. I like that analogy. But why you got so many churches with less than 100 people? Where is the spirit of unity that brings people together? Because I heard one preacher in my neighbor talk about how the last pastor don't respect them and don't understand their anointing. And they preach it in their yard and the church right next door. And I try to figure out my God, how much God we have within a block of each other. To me it's almost nonsensical, but go ahead, call before the news. Go ahead, call her. Hey, right here. Stirring up a pot. [00:39:16] Speaker B: You want me call back? [00:39:18] Speaker A: No, no, go ahead, go ahead, man. [00:39:20] Speaker B: Okay. Ms. God. [00:39:21] Speaker A: Hey. [00:39:22] Speaker B: The church, yes, the church is governed also and have rules. And the. The government gotta follow the rules by the law of the land, right? Listening to you, church is not obeying the rules of the regulation of the law of the land, then it is violating that same Bible that God sent to us that ruled by and who disobey the rules of the land. It takes the leaders, those leaders of the church that believe that they can do anything and the law of the land don't have nothing to say. The law of the land can record that license back in because they the one that give it to them. [00:40:15] Speaker A: Have you ever heard of the government taking a license back? [00:40:18] Speaker B: Yes. [00:40:19] Speaker A: From a church? [00:40:20] Speaker B: Yes. [00:40:21] Speaker A: Boy, that's the first time I ever heard that. [00:40:24] Speaker B: Don't you listen? Don't you see in first world country where church is being closed down because when government finds churches are doing things that is not right in the law of land, they close down the church. The church is only the, what we call the church is only the building that the human family goes in to worship, you know, so maybe what we. [00:40:48] Speaker A: Got to do now is get some immigration officers to start attending these churches as members and find out what they're doing in there so we can do an audit. That's the only way to find out, eh? [00:40:58] Speaker B: Yes. Supposed to know. You can. Let me tell you something. In some places you have where undercover beliefs goes in some of these church to find out. That's the only way you'll know what's going on and what is worth. Because why when I go to church, I go to obey the commandment of God. We shouldn't assemble ourselves with our brothers and sisters. I go to church to know about this unknown God who I say I'm serving. [00:41:28] Speaker A: Acts chapter 17. [00:41:30] Speaker B: Go to church to know about who going with who. I goes to know about this God who I say I'm saving that one day he's coming back to get the more knowledge about him. And because we don't get the knowledge of God, that is the reason why the leaders of the church bamboozle the people. Tell the people if you sow this $200 watch what God can do. They preach prosperity. Prosperity don't only mean in money. You can be prosperity in knowing the word of God that people would not take advantage of you. And this is the reason why you find out the preachers of LA and the preachers of the Bahamas, some of them are living by the lake. They, they, they live. And they don't have no one to answer to. [00:42:22] Speaker A: Mmm. [00:42:23] Speaker B: You understand me? And because they don't have no one to answer to, the members don't study the Bible, the members don't know anything. So what they do, they take all their money, their savings money and everything and just pour it down in the pastor. So what the pastor do the pastor educate his children, send his children away to the university, they come back, they take over the church. Then when you look the wife, she next in line for the church. So we have a family, a family church. And it's not supposed the church to run by a family. The church was run by God. [00:42:56] Speaker A: Well, listen, I so appreciate your call. And listen, man, hey, we're going to get to the bottom of this today. And for those people. Thanks for the call, my brother. For those people listening, I am not church bashing today. And so what I'm going to do after the news, Darwin, I will let Darvin Russell outlay the positive things of church, the things that churches who are in God actually perform in communities. And if he wants to give a shout out to his pastor, I'm not going to be against that either because I'm going to tell all this off the air. Darvin Russell is a man that loves the Lord and loves his family and he's exemplified. I appreciate him for being a strong brother here in the Bahamas. I got some texts coming in here. Darwin, someone just shot one over your bow. Say boy. Darwin, stop talking, fool. I can, I can. I can read these. I got. I got about 15 texts here, but I got to read them after the news. So what are we going to do, folks? We're talking a little bit church involvement in our society. And I'm just pinpointing out to you some of the loopholes that others have found to use the church in order to gain ground in terms of their population growth within the Commonwealth of the Bahamas.

I don't care if y' all people cut me, man. I don't care if y' all try to break me up or tear me apart. The good thing about that side of the mountain is you're going up. I'm going up a yonder. And so starting radio today 96.9 FM. We got our main man Kermit there on the boards. And I so appreciate the producers of these shows. I appreciate the staff that are here only to allow you the opportunity to speak your mind. And I like I said, I heard y' all trying to tear up the host of these shows and who PLP and who F and M and this and the dot. And I look at the newspaper today and for those who are just joining us, manhunt is underway for young Mr. Culmer that escaped the court system. People are still wondering and curious as to how that happened. And Pintard says go to election. Of course, I told you on Monday that I am not going to deal with that for 14 days. So I'm just letting you know it's there. They could say whatever they want to, but guess what? I live, I live in golden isles. Give me 14 days, we can chop that up and I ain't saying no more about that. Everybody else could talk all y' all want, but the difference between you and me is I live in Golden Isles. For the Member of Parliament, still giving condolences and regards to the family of the late Vaughn Miller, a former member of Parliament for our constituency. And then Miller asked if he's running for DNA. And of course, Boles will vote for Sunday. In other news around go to the nation. As PM faces by election, take time in our churches to say, you know what, where there's a lot of flooding and help to lift the sidewalks of elderly population. And these people, when they reach the ages of 11, 12, 13, 14, they can find someone in the church that you can trust. I'm not talking about those who are fast hand people, who is full of children and pedophiles. I talk about them type of people, real men and real women who could teach them how to sew, how to do upholstery, how to go ahead and do accounts, how to mix semen, how to be a carpenter, how to how to drive a car, drive a truck. You find these people in your ministry to empower the young people of the nation so that when we talk about building this Bahamas, you don't have to talk about PLP and fmc. Y' all there on Sierra Neui earlier today, trying to talk about God is cushioning plp. God don't cushion no plp. God hear nothing. Every time above, I asking you that. I telling you that. You see. So people serious about our country, real issue as to why that particular population is growing. But not only they're coming and building their numbers, they are building their professions and they're building the stakeholdership in our country. That is what concerns me. The numbers today, 323-623-2325-431632-54259. Anywhere from the family of Island 300-5720, or you can text at 422-4796. Got some text here to read for you Pastor between still one. I am an unpaid pastor. Time. Did you have a church that you pastored and what happened? Did something go wrong? Well, you know I'm a transparent guy. I am the Freedom of Information act me. That's who I am. Did I have a church? Absolutely. I had several churches in this country in my internship. I pastored the Grandstown Seventh Adventist Church. I worked at the Berea Seventh Adventist Church. And I was given a district in this country which was South Andros, which I pastored the New Macedonia Seventh Day Adventist Church and the Kemp's Bay Seventh Day Adventist. And then my good friend who's now deceased over in Mangrove he actually offered me the keys for his church because he loved me like a son. So the Jack King and do a shout out because y' all were very deep. And then when Sir Lyndon Pinling came to my church in 1996, he requested to be baptized that I called the head office and he was baptized by Pastor H.A. roach, the former chaplain for the House of Assembly. Because I was too young, they said too young. And so that's fine. But this is a story that I like Obi Wishcombe, who's now deceased reminded me of this story back in 2007. And so I thank Obediah Wishcom even in his death matched me so hard. But I. I was actually sent off to school in January of 1997, what they call a study leave for four years for guess what, Darwin Divinity insubordination. Like these young people, I don't rule. [00:53:28] Speaker D: And guess what, Darwin Russell, you still ain't ruling. [00:53:31] Speaker A: How you know. Yeah, well, gee boy is a smart man. Call on the line. Go ahead. [00:53:36] Speaker B: Good afternoon, Garth. [00:53:39] Speaker A: This cannot be my friend. All is well. [00:53:43] Speaker B: Oh, good. I just wanted you made a great statement of your concern of a populace that is growing in our country that is for all intents and purposes unchecked. And I thought I would throw something into the mix. The populous expansion of a epidemic proportion is going unchecked, be it allegedly by intent or it could be allegedly by lack of finances. But are the people elected said there's no immigration problem. Now, I think I've mentioned this to you on the radio before and in person. We are probably the highest Legislated country in probably the world with no enforcement. So one, you can drive down the street any day and you see the jokers on those four wheelers and you know, speeding through town, riding without helmets and there's a plethora of infractions that you see daily. And you have police officers that are sitting there chatting on the corner, but there's no enforcement. Now that is a problem in itself. But just like anything, if there's a will, there's a way as far as I'm concerned. And this is not at anybody directly. I'm just going to call them jokers because this has gone on for decades. The jokers don't have any will. And what they're doing is let's do what we have to do to get in. And it's all about me, baby, not about the Bahamian people and what we are suffering. Now I have said this over and over. I have no problem being the heavy hand and do the deportation you go through everywhere, I don't care where you're from. And you clean them out. [00:55:53] Speaker A: Sounds like you want to be the man walking into the temple with the cord and cleaning everybody out. [00:55:58] Speaker B: No problem doing that. But with humanity and humility and everything else, you're not here. You're not abiding by the law. You got to get out. [00:56:06] Speaker A: Well, I appreciate that call my friend. [00:56:08] Speaker B: This whole idea of voting and citizenship, it's all got to stop. Because we are in a quandary of virtually no return. That's how we're close. But that's my, that's my, you know, copper penny for the day. [00:56:22] Speaker A: Great contribution. I appreciate your timely contribution today. But for the light you and Darvin shine, Darwin, you, you, you emitting light. Please preach. Darvin. You know when the pastor preaches, won't get paid. But not me. I don't need no money. I don't want any money. I. I scared to take church people money. Where does the Haitian children put their money? Like the ones on Lazaretto Road and East Street. These people are doing for more hoodwinking, everybody. They do nothing for the Bahamas. The feds need to investigate them. That's a bit strong, isn't it? What do you think about that? That was strong. Okay. Good day, gentlemen. God, you need to help Howard. He needs it. No, listen man, you know I don't mind reading your text, right? But my, my friend Howard as well, you know, God has a way of establishing and said we coming up on what side of the mountain, Darwin? The rough side of the mountain. So we can get some bruises. Did I not break sometime? My hand. Listen, I got. Okay, let me use a sweeter word for you all. In 1997, January, I got fired for being a pastor. It wasn't for sexual immorality, it wasn't for Germany. I got fired because I told the president, you don't rule me, God rules me. You know what he said to me? [00:57:47] Speaker D: Insubordination. [00:57:48] Speaker A: What he said to me, what do you say I run this? I is Human resources and God put me in charge of that. And we can see you later. [00:57:59] Speaker B: Now. [00:58:01] Speaker A: My mouth still hot. I scared. Guess what I did? I left here, I went home. I used to work, didn't I just come from Michigan? [00:58:09] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:58:09] Speaker A: I went home. H o m to Michigan. See, I blessed with homes. Some people ain't blessed like me. When I reached home, I became a teacher. [00:58:18] Speaker D: Yes. [00:58:19] Speaker A: And then I pastored a church in Battle Creek. Then I found out that pastor was a liar. [00:58:23] Speaker B: Wow. [00:58:23] Speaker A: I don't work with liars too well. So I fired myself from that one. Wow. I left from Michigan, went down to Atlanta, Georgia, where I got my second master's degree. And I passed at a church that had 5,000 members. But I was a junior pastor. The pastor left me to preach and I preached a sermon. I started preaching at quarter to 12. I finished the sermon at 1 o'. [00:58:46] Speaker B: Clock. [00:58:46] Speaker A: The people put me back on the pulpit at 1:10. They didn't let me get down until quarter to five. The pastor came through the door coming in from Huntsville, Alabama, said, why is the people still in this church? The man said, the Holy Ghost come down here and touch down. But that's what is happening. You don't let a young preacher preach. You just hold us off for three, four, five, six, seven months. All that Holy Ghost building up inside you. So when I let go, I let go. The man said, listen, he trying to take my church from me. So I took the keys out of my pocket. Pastor, since this your church, this your keys. And I fired myself again. My Lord, this why I don't go to nobody church. I preaching in nobody church. Cuz why we have a problem with me. [00:59:26] Speaker D: God. You know what this is called? A pattern. [00:59:28] Speaker A: It's a pattern. [00:59:29] Speaker B: A pattern. [00:59:29] Speaker A: I'm a problem. [00:59:30] Speaker D: You are. [00:59:31] Speaker A: And so guess what? Since I'm a problem and I preaches too much and I teach us too much, should be by yourself. That I just, just, just let me go to the garden, get something I believe. That's why I don't do what I do. Call it a Line. Go ahead. [00:59:44] Speaker B: Yes, Mr. Dodge, my buddy. [00:59:48] Speaker A: What you catch? [00:59:49] Speaker B: I want to know the. The answer to God. To the. To Howard Grant's question. The spokesman for the f. M. In charge of the FN Will not win against the PLP or any other party once they answer that question. That's a response for all this murder and mayhem. Thank you. God bless you. [01:00:11] Speaker A: Now, sweet girl, you know I love you, but I just see my boy wal. And you see what I try you. I. I think 1. I think you tell a woman to call me and say that, you know, because I ain't talking no politics. Still bendaving the 14th? Yes, I could do that. Right? Because I telling you when I come here on that Monday, I ain't playing with nobody and I scared of nobody. Now, that may be my last day to work here because I can talk straight because I live in golden isles. Next call on the line. Let's go. Call on the line. Call her there. [01:00:45] Speaker B: Hello? [01:00:45] Speaker A: Hello. [01:00:46] Speaker B: Hello. [01:00:46] Speaker A: What's going on? [01:00:47] Speaker B: Yeah, what's going on? Garth and Darwin. [01:00:50] Speaker D: How are you, my friend? [01:00:51] Speaker B: Yeah, it's a pleasure. [01:00:52] Speaker A: You know. [01:00:53] Speaker B: Hey, Darwin. [01:00:53] Speaker D: Hey, buddy. [01:00:54] Speaker B: God makes fun of me yesterday, man, but. But, you know. You know, I like to listen to Darwin. I like to listen to you both because. Because. But the last caller, the gentleman. Yes, sir, he's full of aphorism, and so I can't knock him what he's saying because there's a problem when we speak out about the migrant problem. Right, but we could start with that big shopping center they have right on the street between cordo avenue and balfour avenue. Because that's exactly what it is. It's a business entity. And so I noticed, speaking to the church. Right, Let me get to that first. Well, let's say there's somebody who names Ryan with repent, right. That Brittany made some fake comments on. They threw Brittany under the jitney. So I didn't hear any uproar from the collective church as to relates to what's going on. I'm afraid to send my children to church. They might steal away their purse. I'm saying that's just me. The church is being degraded by deviants, and it's quite clear. So, you know, you can't blame me. And most of the men seem to, you know, I'm not looking for effeminate or effeminated preachers. I'm looking for strong men who, you know, some of the goth or anku or somebody who. You see what I'm saying? God, I gotta say it. Ga. And so as it relates to the migrant problem. The caller highlighted the problem. I live in the inner city, but obviously they don't want to tell you what I'm seeing. You see, I've seen people jumping out of these buses and stuff, et cetera, et cetera. It's only obvious over the decades. And so you notice they would walk with the Bible in their hand, right? And so it exempts them from whatever. But I mean, my God, how much. [01:02:26] Speaker A: Can we love these people? [01:02:27] Speaker B: We can love them more than we love ourselves. Garvin. I mean Garp and Garvin. [01:02:30] Speaker A: Me too. I like that man. He said he got the Bible in the hand of protection. [01:02:35] Speaker B: Darvin is my boy. So Darvin know the Bible says. Yeah, it says a feast is made for. A feast is made for. For laughter and wine maketh merry. When money answered all things. But that's obviously in a worldly context because you and I know money don't answer everything. And Darvin, you are bright enough to know that. But that's just. I just thought I would play with. And another thing is if the earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof, why would he leave the earth? He doesn't went anywhere. He lives within me and you. This big don't exist without flesh. We must get these type of concert our mind. But both governing parties are to blame for this migrant crisis. My wife went to the PDA meeting for a certain primary school and she said all there was migrants. And so. But what I'm saying is we will sit and deny and deny and then, gosh, what I hate about it is the young gentleman who was called, who called and asked you for your name and all that, you know, it doesn't matter where we're from. Maybe I miscegenated the boat stop there. The boat stopped there. But what we are talking about is obeying the law and being legally here. Legally. So what I'm saying is. You notice that he would never. Or anyone who calls, they would only lambast the Bahamian, but they would never lambast their community for the rhetoric and the disparaging remarks and the infuriation and also which points to subjugation. You heard what Leslie Miller saying, the big five guy from Abaco is saying, why would you be so audacious? And they're getting brassy. That's the word, Leslie, but I call it audacious. These are the things that they're displaying. And so as we be naive. Let me finish this because people need to hear this. We are being very naive saying we Only talking about the migrants from the South. That's foolishness. You see the Chinese or the demographic floating children, our passport and everything in our face saying they can vote and this and that and vote this block and vote that block. We are dumb as a people, you know. We are collectively dumb and stupid, you know. Hey, Garth. [01:04:27] Speaker A: Yes, sir. [01:04:28] Speaker B: Smarter than me. Garth is good in math. So you smart. And so as I noticed, you throw up there, right, Gar? But I'll share this with you. If I grab 100 guys right now and started teaching upholstery, by the time it's next year, I might have a 20. It's not easy, Garth. And so one thing I like about the post you got, every chair is different and it's not as easy as people think. [01:04:49] Speaker A: I know. [01:04:50] Speaker B: So I was a shift engineer at Garth. I could. I could. I could trade black iron pipe. I could do. I could do plumbing. I could do electrical. I could do mechanical. I used to fix motors, engines. Come on, guys, give me. [01:05:02] Speaker A: You're my type of guy. Yeah, but I mean, I'm retired now. [01:05:04] Speaker B: But I don't have enough money. But that's what I got to keep doing. [01:05:06] Speaker A: We're going to untie you and get you back to work. Hey, man, thanks for calling 61MONEY. [01:05:11] Speaker B: Give thanks. [01:05:13] Speaker A: 96.9 FM, Guardian Radio today.

We're still going up that rough side of the mountain. And Darvin Russell and I were doing our best here at Guardian Talk radio today. 96.9 FM. Let's go straight to the lines. Calling on the line. Let's go ahead. Call on the line. Go ahead, caller. [01:08:31] Speaker B: Godly day to stop getting away so long with you and your guests. [01:08:36] Speaker A: Co host, that's Darvin Russell. [01:08:37] Speaker D: Hey, buddy. [01:08:38] Speaker B: Okay. Okay. What's the other brother name? [01:08:42] Speaker D: Darvin D, A R V I N. [01:08:43] Speaker A: D as in dog. A R V I N. Darvin Russell. [01:08:46] Speaker B: Okay. That's the host, right? [01:08:48] Speaker A: Yeah. The co host there. Yeah. [01:08:49] Speaker B: Yeah. Let me ask you something, mister. Do you believe in respecting those who have the rule over you? [01:08:59] Speaker D: Yeah. [01:09:01] Speaker B: Not, not you, not you, Gavin. [01:09:03] Speaker D: Oh, God. [01:09:04] Speaker A: Who me? [01:09:05] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:09:05] Speaker A: Okay. Oh, yeah. I, I could bow to a good ruler. The bad one I can't deal with. [01:09:11] Speaker B: But, but they were, they, they were still ahead of you. [01:09:15] Speaker A: How. [01:09:17] Speaker B: If it okay if a pastor give you a job, right, to do things, you, you wouldn't respect him. [01:09:27] Speaker A: Of course. [01:09:28] Speaker B: Of course. [01:09:29] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:09:29] Speaker B: Okay. [01:09:30] Speaker A: But he has, he has to operate. He has to operate with it. He has to operate within proper guidelines. For me though. [01:09:37] Speaker B: I agree. But how would you know what is. What is what his motive. Motives are? [01:09:46] Speaker A: Because if I determine that his motive is not above board, I fire myself. I wouldn't be there. [01:09:54] Speaker B: You wouldn't be there. [01:09:55] Speaker A: I wouldn't be. You can follow my life from the day I was born. Call my mother in Michigan right now and she'll tell you I don't follow foolishness. I rather go hungry. I'd rather be homeless. I'm not going to follow. Nonsense. [01:10:10] Speaker B: Well, I agree. [01:10:11] Speaker A: Okay. [01:10:11] Speaker B: I agree. Nobody should follow foolishness. [01:10:14] Speaker A: Okay. [01:10:14] Speaker B: But the thing is, how would you know what he or she was saying? [01:10:22] Speaker A: I hear you, but I don't think, I don't feel that we need to go ahead and substantiate what is Foolishness. And what is not foolishness? I think we have to respect what life really is and we are all different. And if you're like in the Bible itself, Mark and Paul and Peter, they didn't get along all the time. Sometimes they went their separate ways. This is going to happen. And so if you and I are not going to agree today, doesn't mean that I even hate you. It just simply means that you go your way and I go mine, okay? If I got a wife and she don't conform to a standard that I like, and she said, God, to hell with you then guess what, baby, you go your way, I go ma. You said, well, I take in the house, I give you the house, the car, the dog. I give you everything you want. Passport, I give you that too. I ain't scared. I'm just simply saying to you, the blessing of life is this. You have your individuality, you have your own opinion. And people must learn to respect each other for the human being that they are. That's how I live. [01:11:14] Speaker B: I agree with you. So I agree. But what I'm trying to find out. When you join the church, right? Yes, you still are. Seven days. [01:11:24] Speaker A: No, I'm gone. [01:11:26] Speaker B: Okay, I got you. Okay, I got you. [01:11:30] Speaker A: Thank you. [01:11:30] Speaker B: Okay. Okay. Thank you.

Let me try to read a few of these. Good afternoon. Garth. Did you address the false tithing teachings perpetuated in supposedly Christian churches? Of course I did time and time again. But that will probably come back to Light in future shows giving under compulsion is absolutely contrary to the teaching on free will. Giving as God revealed to the apostle and to the Gentiles. Paul, formerly Saul of Tarsus. But this person is a preacher man. If you challenge these pastors about there being a special day for worship, they suddenly are able to clearly distinguish between Judaism and Christianity all over again. God. They are teaching tithing as a requirement of God. If it was the principle of equal contribution based on giving 10% of income and all agreed, that would be different. They are teaching that God pours his wrath on those who do not tithe, be they willing givers or not. They say God is cursing them. They impose fair on the ignorant. That's a text. Brother Garth, I fully agree with your position in life. I will not follow foolishness and corruption. Beware the traditions and rudiments of men. Follow Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior reigns forevermore and forevermore. Selah. Hey. God and I love your truth. My school principal always told us, don't follow your pastor if he doesn't follow the master. I like that. Meaning Jesus Christ. [01:21:27] Speaker D: Amen. [01:21:28] Speaker A: You are men of greatness. Praise the Lord. Well, we appreciate your encouragement. Garth, I am curious as to why you are no longer a Seventh Day Adventist. [01:21:38] Speaker D: Don't answer that question. Your lawyer is not here. [01:21:41] Speaker A: No, I could answer. I'm a man of truth. I'm no longer seventh Adventist because like the apostle Paul said, I've become all things to all men that I may win some. You. You. You. You want to play with me? You think I. You think I easily talk, but I mustn't answer that question. Are you crazy? Oh man, I gotta answer. Good day. Go and thank God for the light you and Darwin shine. Please preach. Where does the Haitian. Okay, we did that one already. I do believe there's so many texts, I just. [01:22:10] Speaker D: You got them all, eh? [01:22:11] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. I mean, I think the person sent it twice. Okay, let's do this one. The church today is a man made scam subset. I think you were mentioning this before, Darvin. And we can't put it all into one group. Yeah, but I want to read the text anyhow of man made religion. Just think of earth and people and if this is the best God can do. He isn't idiot. But I wouldn't say that it's a bit strong, but crimes against children and newborns, rapes, assaults, et cetera. When good happen, praise God. When bad happens, blame Satan or Lucifer. I think they got a little argument there that can be debated though. I think we can discuss that. I think that's the subject matter for people who want to get to know the spiritual side of life. That caller is a fool. Asking where your name originated from. Who cares? You were born after 1970. No, I was actually born before 60. 1963. I was born in 1969. So I would be the first borrow. And right now I'm the. There's only two rose paroles in this country that I know about, but they said they got some Haitian people who got my last name. So maybe I need to go up to the Department of Immigration and see why I miss that newspaper clipping. Because you can't get my name for free. You need to be a rose barrel. You got to pick some cotton and you got to pick some tobacco. That's how you get to be a rose barrel. Don't play with that. Nothing to explain to fools. Who wants to annex or allow the annexing of this country. Now, what nonsense is this? This is what I wanted to laugh at. Darwin cooking up 2,000amonth. Well, stop it, Darvin. God can charge you say these people ain't making no less than 2000. He trying to say they making more money than that Darwin. [01:23:47] Speaker D: Myself, I know more about church business than he could ever think. Trust me. [01:23:51] Speaker A: It's a good day. God, we have to get you back in the church buildings to lead. You know what I can do with this text? I hear them doing encouraging things. So guess what I can do, the sinner that I am. Call you on the line. Let's go ahead, call her. Let me take a break. Go ahead, call her. [01:24:07] Speaker B: Hey, Prime Minister, listen, this PLP is one. Listen. No, Prime Minister Davis need a new mandate. We say call a general election, not a by election. [01:24:16] Speaker A: I call it now. I can talk on. See you trying to get me in trouble. [01:24:19] Speaker D: I told you, get nine more days. Nine more days. [01:24:22] Speaker A: Nine more days I can deal with. I bet you you don't live in Golden Arts. I live in Golden Arts. I tell you, I can deal with that. I asked nobody else to be in my choir. You ain't got to be in my congregation. You ain't got to be nothing. I I is the church bus driver on that. I the deacon, the deaconess. All of a sudden, I go on transgender. I the deacon and the deaconess, the elder and the elders. I say everything in this church when it comes to that. So in nine more days, only me wanting to be in that church and I preach in a sermon on that particular day. So if you. If you're around, if God has it that we are. We live to see that day. I guarantee you that can be a rough day because I don't need talking the truth. Golden aisles. We coming. We coming in Golden Isles. Okay, let me try. Go back to this. I could get back to this. [01:25:08] Speaker D: You can get back to this. [01:25:09] Speaker A: Good day. God, we have to get you back in the church buildings to lead. Most things you spoke about in terms of helping persons is a part of what Roman Catholic, Anglican and Methodist churches have as part of their mo. In fact, some of those give to non tithing members. Oh, that's interesting. Priests want to open doors more than one day a week, but it's hard to find volunteers now. David, I'm going to let you talk about that in a minute. How we can encourage volunteers. Okay. People want to be paid. Nassau churches are good compared to family island churches. There's always 20% of the people doing 80% of the work. Garth, I feel that you have a ministry where you can help pastors to inspire congregations. Actually, I do. I have suggested you to my priests many times. [01:25:57] Speaker B: Wow. [01:25:58] Speaker A: People are praying for me. Darwin Russell. Thanks be to God. Look, I need prayers, you know, all day. Okay, then. We thought you were younger. Wanted you to talk to the youth. Now, hold on. They thought I was younger? How old are you? So, Darvin, I. Was he too old? They call in the line. Go ahead. Did we lose the caller? [01:26:16] Speaker D: Yeah, you lied. They gone. [01:26:19] Speaker A: Okay. They gone. They thought I was younger. Would this be an issue if these migrants was white? That's a good question. [01:26:27] Speaker D: That's a whole show. [01:26:29] Speaker A: That's a whole show. [01:26:30] Speaker D: That's a whole show. [01:26:31] Speaker A: I like it though. God for pine might make coal to be sold for barbecue for the vendors at fish fry in Porter's Key. It's huge business. Caller, you on the line. [01:26:38] Speaker D: Go ahead, go ahead, call her. You're on the air. [01:26:42] Speaker A: Let me get you. Go ahead, caller. Good afternoon, Garth. [01:26:48] Speaker B: And your guest, Darvin. [01:26:50] Speaker D: Good afternoon, sir. It's Darvin D A R V I. [01:26:54] Speaker A: N. He's the co host and he's also co hosting Sunday. [01:26:57] Speaker B: My take on it. This is my personal opinion. [01:27:00] Speaker D: Sure.

Okay, see, I lived in Golden Isles, all right? I campaigned in Golden Isles. It is not as bad in Golden AIDS as people are trying to make. It seems that the minister was. No. [01:27:26] Speaker D: Go ahead, finish the statement. That's it. [01:27:28] Speaker A: I think you see, didn't cut. You just so, you know, I didn't cut him. But. But guess what? These people keep trying to pull me into this discussion about Golden. [01:27:37] Speaker D: Oh, nine days. Nine days. [01:27:38] Speaker A: They got to give me nine. Everybody else could listen to Dwight Strong. You can listen to Aaron Green. You can listen to Ca Nury. You can listen to Chicago line. You can listen to Naughty. I am not going to be moved. I am not an envious person. I'm not a jealous person. I just know in my spirit for respect for the former member of Parliament in his position, I feel for his family, who I do know that I will not mention anything until the 14 days has passed. That's what I'm. [01:28:04] Speaker D: Caller, caller. [01:28:05] Speaker A: Go on the line. Caller, you're on the line. [01:28:08] Speaker B: Yeah. Hello, Pleasant. Good evening. [01:28:10] Speaker D: Good evening. [01:28:11] Speaker A: Good evening. You sound like an ambassador. [01:28:13] Speaker B: First time I calling. [01:28:15] Speaker A: Well, you sound like an ambassador. I don't know if your radio is up too high, but you sound like a dignitary. [01:28:20] Speaker B: Oh, man. Born and bred and of amusement. I want to ask you a question. I see you said, no nonsense, man. You sound like a pastor. You know, you don't like foolishness. Some pastors don't like the young youth pastors speak on the pulpit when you speak in the truth, you know. [01:28:42] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:28:42] Speaker B: So be encouraged, man. [01:28:44] Speaker A: I appreciate you and you to ask for your press. [01:28:47] Speaker B: You remind me of JLO Jennings. [01:28:50] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:28:50] Speaker B: No, non to this man. Have a blessed day. [01:28:53] Speaker A: Thank you. This person who said, garth, I'm curious as to why they're. Why you're no longer Seventh Adventist. They also wrote back and said, garth, if these migrants were white, they would have had proper housing, they wouldn't commit crime and they would change their names. They wouldn't change their names to appear to be Bahamian. [01:29:09] Speaker D: So let me touch on that for two seconds. [01:29:11] Speaker A: Garth, two seconds. [01:29:11] Speaker B: Go ahead. [01:29:13] Speaker D: I do not believe as much as the subtext of their race appears to be an issue, and it may be in some circles, in some quarters, I think that this has more to do with about the nature of how the immigrants from the south move and behave in the Bahamas. I think it's an issue of how they choose to live. The fact that more from the society than they give to it and the brazenness with which they do what they do. I think that's what. What is a challenge to many Bahamians because we do have immigrants from other Caribbean countries that don't receive the kind of ire that our Haitian brothers and sisters do. I don't get this kind of venom from Jamaicans. I don't you direct it to toward the Jamaican immigrant population. I don't get it. Toward folks from Trinidad and Tobago. So this is a uniquely directed at our Haitian brothers and sisters and I think that that is disproportionately related to how in which they move and behave in the culture and community. There's not an attempt for assimilation. They wish to bring Haiti to the bomb and I think we reject that wholeheartedly. [01:30:31] Speaker A: I appreciate it. Today before we get out of here someone says give COI a chance. Listen I'm not talking no politics like that. You all better don't play with me because when I start and I put the sword forward like Jesus who brought the cord into the temple you may not like what I say just give me an opportunity God Growing up in the ghetto I've seen the firsthand the Haitian church is guilty of aiding and abetting illegal migration. Hey God, I love your truth my if you can't follow the pastor don't follow your pastor if he doesn't follow the master.
