Beck Delivers Rousing Church Speech: 'Put on the Full Armor of God' & Get America 'Back Into the Right Direction

"We can't give anymore without losing everything we are."

Glenn Beck took the stage twice on Sunday at Skyline Church in La Mesa, California, where he gave a rousing speech about the state of American politics and what Americans should be doing to change it. At the center of his message was the notion that America must get back on track -- a central tenet that he drove home to the nearly 2,000 people who packed the church to hear his address. The popular commentator, who was joined by televangelist James Robison and Pastor Jim Garlow, spoke at 2 p.m. and again at 4 p.m.

"They're trying to divide us in every way. They're poking at us. They need you to stand up and to be angry," he said of the American left. "And there are times that I, for one, am angry...Every day I get up and my job is to look at the news of the world. My job is to piece it together."

Beck said that he gets up every morning to start the day with prayer, but that it is often difficult to be faced with the news of the day -- news that is  overwhelmingly tragic and horrific. Despite these challenges, the radio and television host told the audience that America has reached a dire crossroads and that it's time to take action.

"It's line in the sand time. Our back is up against the wall and there's no place to go," Beck proclaimed. "We can't give anymore without losing everything we are."

It was with this cultural battle cry that he told the audience that it is time to set the United States' path straight.

"We either go back into the right direction, and that’s not the George Bush years, that’s the George Washington years," UT San Diego quoted Beck as telling the crowd. "Or we go and fundamentally complete the transformation."

Beck went on to encourage, as he has numerous times before, people of various faiths to come together in an effort to protect religious freedom. Additionally, he told them to stand up for their faith without hate.

"Prepare yourself," he told the crowd. "Put on the full armor of God. Because the battle is already raging and it is time for the servants of the Lord -- of all faiths -- to stand together and stand ready to love and do exactly what he tells us to do because, in the end, we win. We win."

Coming together, he reiterated, has nothing to do with mixing theological ideals and everything to do with standing up for what's right, while reinforcing tenets pertaining to religious freedom.

"We're not supposed to mix our theology," he said. "We're just supposed to get along."
