In his speech to the Pastors Summit in San Diego three years ago, Charlie lays out the great divide between pagan thought and Judeo-Christian beliefs, and predicts one of the issues that would prove decisive in turning the tide against the woke plague ahead of the 2024 election: The fanatical desire of predatory adults to give sex changes to children.

Speaker 1: My name is Charlie kirk I run the largest pro American student organization in the country, fighting for the future of our republic. My call is to fight evil and to proclaim truth. If the most important thing for you is just feeling good, you're going to end up miserable. But if the most important thing is doing good, you'll end up purposeful. College is a scam, everybody. You got to stop sending your kids to college. You should get married as young as possible and have as many kids as possible. Go start at turning point you would say college chapter. Go start attny point youould say high school chapter. Go find out how your church can get involved. Sign up and become an activist.
00:00:39
Speaker 2: I gave my.
00:00:39
Speaker 1: Life to the Lord in fifth grade, most important decision I ever made in my life, and I encourage you to do the same.
00:00:45
Speaker 2: Here I am Lord, Use me.
00:00:48
Speaker 1: Buckle up, everybody, Here we go. Noble Gold Investments is the official gold sponsor of the Charlie Kirkshaw, a company that specializes in gold irays and physical delivery of precious metals.

Carl Marx in the mid eighteen hundreds wrote a couple books that many of you may or may not be familiar with, Communist Manifesto and Doskopital. Carl Marx also had some involvement in the Occult. There's a whole great amount of literature there. But basically, Carl Marx took demonic ideology and ideas from the enemy that all that God created must be challenged and must be criticized.
00:01:42
Speaker 2: In fact, direct.
00:01:43
Speaker 1: Quote from Marxist writings, you must engage in the ruthless criticism of all that exists, said simply, Marxists are trained, and this is what happens when you send kids to college to deconstruct, to pick apart, to plane against anything that exists, and that includes the natural law and the natural order. Now you're probably starting to connect some dots like, oh, well, that makes sense. That's why they're always trying to go after why what is a man?
00:02:13
Speaker 2: And what is a woman? Now?
00:02:15
Speaker 1: I believe that if the American Church spoke more about the first eleven books of Genesis, we'd be in a much better place. I believe that there are eternal answers to so many of our problems in the first eleven Books of Genesis that the modern cool kid, the skinny gene church does not.
00:02:33
Speaker 2: Like talking about.
00:02:35
Speaker 1: They say, oh, it's allegorical, it's the word of God, it's the truth. Now, in the first eleven books of Genesis, the distinctions that our entire existence rely upon are set up.
00:02:46
Speaker 2: I mentioned this briefly yesterday.
00:02:49
Speaker 1: The distinctions between God and man, the distinctions between holy and profane, the distinctions between man and woman, the distinctions between good and evil, the distinctions between man and nature, the distinctions between God and nature.
00:03:07
Speaker 2: So let's focus on that one.
00:03:08
Speaker 1: Every ancient false pagan religion, before Judaism, before the Torah, and eventually Christianity, God was in nature, not above nature. You worship the river, you worship the sun, you worship the mountain. This idea that God spoke nature into existence was unheard of in the ancient world. Now, these distinctions are important because that's where we get very basic morality.
00:03:35
Speaker 2: What the Marxists decided.
00:03:37
Speaker 1: To do is they understood that these distinctions existed, and they said, we must destroy all distinctions.
00:03:44
Speaker 2: We must iron them out.
00:03:45
Speaker 1: Now, if you want to get really deep into it, They believe in smoothing out the contradictions so they can create a oneness of the world.
00:03:55
Speaker 2: Genesis eleven.
00:03:56
Speaker 1: Nimrod wanted to create the city of Babel to create a one world government. The aim of the Marxists is to get rid of any differences. Diversity is not the strength of the Marxists. Conformity and the elimination of differences is the strength of the Marxists. You must understand. It's the exact opposite of what they tell you. And isn't this true. They don't want any dissenting opinion, They don't want any differences or any dialogue, only uniformity, conformity. It's very ttalitarian in nature. And so Carl Marx writes basically this idea that there are people in charge of society and will call them the bourgeoisie. You know, one, two, three, go after the bourgeois is with a chant. That's not what they say on college campuses. They'll use swear words, right, And the rest of us are the proletariat, the everyday man, the worker. Now he came after this mostly through economic lens, that this was people owning the factories and people working in the factories and it's not fair. Now, this was basically him equipping the everyday rank and file with a playbook of how to criticize and how to attack any power structure. So fast forward an obscure writer from prison in Italy, many of you know him, Antonio Gramshet wrote this whole idea that we Marxists, we can't just have economic struggle revolution against the factory owners. We need to have cultural struggle. That what mark s laid out was a rebellion not just against the rich, but a rebellion against anybody in power, including God himself. So what Antonio Gramsci wrote in the letters from prison was that we need to mobilize the masses to go against anybody in charge. So then another obscure thinker by the name of Herbert Marcusa, the Frankfurt School, takes this idea, comes to America and comes up with what we now know is postmodernism. If you want to describe where wokeism is, what is the Wuhan Institute of virology of wokeism. It came from Herbert Marcusa and the Frankfurt School. In the nineteen fifties and sixties, he wrote a book called One Dimensional Man and he had colleagues of Michelle Foucaut and Jacques Derrida and disciples to this day by the name of Angela Davis and also Paulopierian James lindsay, you are a whole book called the Marxification of education. Here's where it comes to your faith. And this is what drives me nuts. When pastors say, Charlie, I don't do politics. Satan is using Marxism as a way to deconstruct God's natural order every single day. So some pastors and some churches say, but I don't like talking about these issues. The most fundamental and easiest example that we can give is another distinction, the distinction between a parent and a child. They do not believe in such distinctions. In Washington, at the age of twelve, when you go in for a doctor's visit, the parent is not allowed into the doctor's visit unless the child requests the parent to come in. They don't believe that there's any distinction between a parent or a child. In fact, they believe it to be an oppressive, tyrannical type relationship. So if you are to equip an entire generation, entire culture to ruthlessly criticize all that exists. Well, then what comes next? San Francisco comes next. There is no next. You know what the only thing is is all outright totalitarianism and tyranny. This is one of the great lies of Marxism is that they act as if you know, eventually they'll get rid of all the contradictions.
00:07:49
Speaker 2: And I'll summarize this.
00:07:50
Speaker 1: In a way that you'll be able to use your congregations, but it will always end in tyranny. We have a unique moment when America was founded, where the many we're able to be in charge of the few. Marxism wants the few to actually be in charge of the many under the guise of the many being in charge of the few.
00:08:10
Speaker 3: If you're like me and you're tired of random stuff getting thrown into your supplements like artificial colors and sugars, you probably would love to know more about phytoonutrition. Phytoonutrients are the naturally occurring plant nutrients found in whole foods that give them their color, their taste, their smell, and the presence of these three things is a surefire sign that you're getting real phytonutrients. Balance of nature's whole health system supplements are a value bundle that includes their fruits and veggies and fiber and spice supplements, which give you forty seven ingredients of fruits, vegetables, spices and fibers and all of the naturally occurring phyto nutrients that come with them every single day.
00:08:49
Speaker 2: Bounce of Nature.
00:08:50
Speaker 3: Takes produce through a specialized vacuum cold process that stabilizes the ingredients. They are then powdered and packaged with no binders, fillers, or flow agents. So, whether you been on the fence for a long time or it's the first time you're hearing about them, I recommend that you go to Balance of Nature dot com in order the whole health system supplements as a preferred customer today, go do Balance of Nature dot com.
00:09:15
Speaker 1: So Marxism must abolish three things. And this is a spiritual war, and I'll prove one, two, and three. Number one, Marxism must destroy religion.
00:09:25
Speaker 2: It must.
00:09:26
Speaker 1: In fact, Karl Marx called religion the opiate of the masses. Number two, Marxism must destroy private property, incredibly important. Do you know the first ever recorded real estate purchase in the history of the world was Abraham buying Hebron private property is biblical. The idea of owning property comes directly from the Bible. The idea of the tribe or the commune owning everything, that idea has been around for a long time.
00:09:53
Speaker 2: But the idea that you.
00:09:53
Speaker 1: Are a steward of a piece of property, a steward of a certain thing to pass down to future generations, to tithe an for these are biblical principles. Marxism wants to destroy and abolish that. And then, finally, because Mark said this is the ultimate ttalitarian environment is the family. And repeatedly we see and I believe I mentioned this yesterday. I give so many speeches, I can't remember everything I mentioned. But yesterday I said, in the Ten Commandments, the only one of the ten commandments that mentions your nation to promise honor your mother and father, so that you may live long in the land to which you are in. So you're all pastors. So I'm gonna get a little geeky with the Hebrew for you, okay. So the word honor is the same word as heavy in the scriptures, the same word to treat heavily. The word curse in Hebrew is the same word as to treat lightly. So if you were to treat your parents lightly, you are to curse your parents.
00:10:47
Speaker 2: What is the last.
00:10:48
Speaker 1: Part of the Old Testament in the Book of Malachi talking about cursing your land? The last thing before Matthew begins is talking about cursing your land. What do we learn from maos China? What did we learn from Stalin's Russia? If they can destroy the bond between a parent and a child, that is the most that is the simplest, most proven way for totalitarian government to come in. And I'm telling you right now, you as pastors have a historic and biblical mandate to protect parental authority in America today. Never before have we seen the family so under attack from so many directions. And I will say what other pastors are afraid to say. They're trying to turn your kids gay and trans and groom them away from Christianity. And some people say, well, you know, Charlie, that that goes too far. Read their literature, Read their books. They talk about how they must go after children because they cannot reproduce, so they must recruit. If there is not an issue that could unite the American church. I mean, what's happening right now in Chino Valley and Jack the Great Jack Kibbs is fighting this and in Temecula, Oh my goodness, just a couple examples where the Attorney General of California is coming in and suing Chino Valley. You know why because Chino Valley right down the street from here the school board, which thankfully because of Jack Kibbs and the Chino Hills Calvary Chapel Church, they took over that school board. They have the radical idea, everybody radical, that if a child wants to transition, the parent gets a phone call, they're being investigated by the California Attorney General, ensued.
00:12:42
Speaker 2: For such a thing.
00:12:44
Speaker 1: Just for that and for the uninitiated, the non Christian audience, they're confused by this. Guess what, you don't get to be confused. You know exactly what's going on here. This is just another manifestation of the invisible war. Because if you can go after the children and destroy that bond, the family is the last line of defense of a free society. It's the only line of it's the ultimate line of defense. And the Church must stand up for this and for parental rights. So when we talk about you know, I if some people say with Charlie, I'm not comfortable being political.
00:13:25
Speaker 2: I think you could give.
00:13:26
Speaker 1: A sermon on Marxism without ever actually being political. It is a dominant ideology in the world today. And by the way, for those of you that are worried about losing your five oh one C three status, you're allowed to talk about ideas and ideology and philosophy.
00:13:42
Speaker 2: And let me just talk about that for a second. I hear that excuse all the time, all the time, Hilariously.
00:13:55
Speaker 1: I hear it from excuses who think Jesus is coming next Thursday, and so I say the irs and get back to you for another eighteen months. Man.
00:14:01
Speaker 2: So it's like.
00:14:05
Speaker 1: You're telling me Jesus is coming soon and you're worried you're going to lose the five to one C three status. One of those things you don't believe. See, I'm not a pastor, so I can say these things. So God and man, holy and profane, man and woman. So I got asked a great question. We just had a wonderful roundtable and one of the pastors asked me, Charlie, what is the issue that we should.
00:14:39
Speaker 2: Go all in on?
00:14:40
Speaker 1: And I've been doing this for eleven years. There is one issue that I think we can win on. One issue that is such a flagrant, such an awful, such a clear, just say insult to God's design. That's going after children and our culture. And it is the pagan state run religion of transgenderism. And I gave the speech at Awaken Church I see Sam here, and I talked about the fake religions, the fake pagan religions that are running America. And there's the Earth worshippers, there's the religion of tolerance, there's the religion of being nice, and the one that is honestly there's the fake religion of cult to scientists. And we could talk about all this if you want, But the one that really gets me is this gender delusion religion. You have on the White House two major trans flags and one American flag. You have an individual who suffers under the transgender lifestyle and he she takes off their clothes as a stripper at the White House.
00:15:38
Speaker 2: I mean this.
00:15:38
Speaker 1: The Center for Disease Control, as I mentioned yesterday, says that men who take lactating drugs can chest feed. This is in our textbooks, it's in our curriculum, and it is because of a silent church. If the church was forceful, and if the church was being sultan light, this thing would never have been able to get out of the gate. Okay, but that didn't happen.
00:15:58
Speaker 2: It is here.
00:15:59
Speaker 1: So let me give you a couple of pointers on how to handle this issue. There are zero genders and there are two sexes. Let me say, well, charl' never heard of that before. Gender is a fake, made up word. It's a new age term. As soon as we admit that gender is a thing, we have lost the debate.
00:16:20
Speaker 2: There is sex, and that is it.
00:16:24
Speaker 1: When they introduced gender, they said, well, it's a social construct. It's it's like your horoscope. And then we all of a sudden played into their hands. Do you notice they used to call it transsexual and now they call it transgender. Just like that, we allowed these guys to take over our language. So again, there are zero genders and there are two sexes. So if you see somebody in your church or they come to you, or they say, but Charlie, you know, this is my twenty two year old and you know he was the captain of the high school team that I sent him to Berkeley, and now she is not what he used to be. He wears a dress and all that their truth. That person is wearing a costume of womanhood, no different than a white person wearing blackface. You do not become the other race just because you wear a costume of the other race. You do not become a different thing just because you start dressing like the other thing. And if we even play into this an inch as Christians, we are surrendering that territory.
00:17:33
Speaker 2: To the enemy, even an inch.
00:17:36
Speaker 1: Now, somebody might say, but Charlie, shouldn't we love on these people. Yes, the best way to love them is to shock them with the truth, and to tell them what everybody else is afraid to tell them, is to say that you are not a man, or you are not a woman, So stop dressing and acting like one. You've obviously been traumatized, you've obviously been hurt. Will find you help to be able to talk about that and deal with that. But I I refuse as a pastor. I refuses a head of a church to be able to sign off and sit idly by while you want my my blessing for you to go take lupron, which is irreversible damage that will make you on a path and a cascade of interventions that.
00:18:18
Speaker 2: You'll never be able to reverse.
00:18:22
Speaker 3: Imagine being a young woman just finding out that you're pregnant, not knowing where to go or what to do, not even knowing exactly what is going on in your body, while the whole world tells her it's just a clump of cells. You and I we both know the truth. We know it is a baby. And once she has an ultrasound that you provide and she sees the truth of the baby growing inside of her, you help her choose life. When you join us in providing ultrasounds with preborn and she sees her baby and here's her baby's heartbeat, you will double the likelihood that she will choose life. And one hundred percent of what you give goes to providing ultrasounds one hundred dred percent preborn Separately. Fundraises for administrative costs two hundred and eighty dollars can save ten babies. Twenty eight dollars a month can save a baby a month, all year long. And a fifteen thousand dollars gift, I know there's some of you out there that can afford this fifteen thousand dollars gift will provide a complete ultrasound machine that will save thousands of babies for years and years to come. Call eight three three eight five zero two two two nine or click on the preborn banner at charliekirk dot com. Today again, that's eight three three eight five zero two two two nine, or click on the preborn banner at Charliekirk dot com.
00:19:37
Speaker 1: Do you know what we're actually learning from some of these D transitioners. By the way, there's over thirty to forty thousand D transitioners now in America and that list is growing. Just so we're clear, because of the silence of the church. Remember, silence itself is evil. Silence is consent. Ten years from now, there will be two hundred and fifty thousand young people regretting saying, where was my pastor warning me about this? Where was the local guy warning me about this? And they will be without breasts, with hysterectomies, unable to have children, unable to be able to get into meaningful relationships. That number is increasing like you wouldn't believe. There used to be two gender affirming care clinics in the West. There are now hundreds hundreds. The pharmaceutical companies look at your children and the children of your church, is nothing more than places to make money, to chop off their private parts and minister them irreversible pharmacological agents that we don't even use for rapists anymore. To then put them on a series of antidepressants, because then they're an annuity for the rest of their life. For one transurgery, a pharmaceutical company will make a million bucks a decade. We're talking about two hundred and fifty thousand of them that we know of coming in the next couple of years. But what we're learning from these detransitioners, one in particular, New Hampshire, a young lady. She comes up and she says, and this video has gone viral, and I'm going to do my best to paraphrase it. She says, I was a young girl and my parents got divorced and I started the sea videos and I thought I was trans and everyone around me was afraid to offend me. So they affirmed me, and they told me I am who I am, it's my truth.
00:21:12
Speaker 2: Be true to who you are.
00:21:13
Speaker 1: And not a single person told me that I might be dealing with something else other than go get a hysterectomy, go to Boston's children and get irreversible surgery. And she said, here, I now, at twenty six, I can never have kids. I missed puberty because I took puberty blockers. And she said, affirmation ruined my life. You as pastors have a moral and biblical obligation to not affirm evil. Almost every single distinction that we see that has been clearly set up in the Bible. The trans agenda goes after. And the other one is that it there is a fear by some churches and some pastors that there's going to be this massive walkout campaign of their church. And I gotta be honest, guys, I say offensive things for a living. It's pretty great. There are worse things than having somebody just walk out of your church. Revelation twenty one eight. The first people in the lake of fire, guys, are the cowards. I'm not saying that's any of you. I'm not even saying that's people you know but don't allow. I mean, one of my favorite pastors says Charlie. I'm doing everything I can to preach it down to a manageable size, and I just they just keep on coming. And it's actually a paradox the more you speak the truth, the more the people are going to come.
00:22:54
Speaker 2: In a broken culture.
00:22:57
Speaker 1: But honestly, okay, let's say that you have a church to six hundred and it goes down to four hundred.
00:23:02
Speaker 2: Well, then that.
00:23:03
Speaker 1: Maybe you have a healthier fighting force in a remnant.
00:23:06
Speaker 2: Maybe that.
00:23:08
Speaker 1: And if I may editorialize for a second, be careful, this is completely off script. Don't grow your church too fast and borrow too much money. I've seen more churches go in the woke neutral direction and use the excuse that I have to pay the mortgage. I believe, And look, I grew up in the cubrst of Chicago. I saw the willow creacification of the American church. Okay, and I think Bill Hybels was a very gifted Bible teacher. It's too bad that whole thing. And so I passively went to that church and I saw the whole thing, and they came up with the model, pay down as little as you can, borrow as much money. And I'm not saying don't borrow money, guys, I'm not telling you how to run your church. What I'm saying, though, is that there is a theme between some of the weak churches in America, and it's because they're very worried that if they lose five percent of the people coming to their church, they're not gonna be able to pay the bank. They're not gonna be able to pay the note.
00:24:06
Speaker 2: So pray on them.
00:24:07
Speaker 1: Maybe if just one of you hear that message, then then it's worth saying. I just want to I want to just thank you guys for your attention throughout these last couple of days, and I hope it's been blessing you. So we're gonna put a slide up here. I don't I'm gonna tell you kind of the story here. So it's been a very eventful year at Turning Point USA. This is our third pastor summit. We ran out of space in Nashville. We ran out of space when we did this last year in Coronado, and honestly, we were debating, like do we do another one? And the first two were completely underwritten by a couple donors of ours. We said, honestly, let's try to get as much sponsors as we can, and all of a sudden we look it around. The response was unbelievable, So we decided to do it. And you know, these events are expensive to put on. I'm not asking you for money. If you're able to chip in anything at all, pray about it. It would help us a lot, because you know, these events run seven hundred, one hundred thousand dollars, so it's about eight one hundred dollars of person.
00:25:01
Speaker 2: If you're not in a position to do that, totally get it. I don't.
00:25:03
Speaker 1: I'm not even saying trying to guilt you and do it. But if you're in a place or your church is able to do it, great, If not, then that's fine too. So if you're able to chip in anything at all, we would greatly appreciate it. But we decided to go into our general funds that we have for a rainy day fund because I said, nothing is more important than what we're doing than assembling pastors and strength in the church. And I'm glad we did, by the way, one of the most important things we did. So think about it, pray about it, and we'll end that there.
