Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages,
Speaker 1: Welcome to another edition of Let's Get Biblical with your host,
Speaker 1: a man formerly in the world of entertainment as a

Speaker 2: haired wisdom all over your chin, will say, come on in.
Speaker 2: We have a phrase for you, and that phrase is
Speaker 2: we dare you. We dare you to develop your faith,
Speaker 2: grow your faith, and acknowledge your faith through the hopes
Speaker 2: of testimony, transparency, and transformation by using the good old
Speaker 2: scriptures from the bi bl e the Basic Constructions before
Speaker 2: Leaving Earth manual we call the Bible, and we do
Speaker 2: it in a fun way. From time to time we
Speaker 2: bring you topics that invade your world, my world, and
Speaker 2: the collective world around us. It's like sitting down at
Speaker 2: a dinner table, maybe a campfire. We're sharing testimonies and
Speaker 2: stories about our lives. That's what the Bible's all about,
Speaker 2: and it helps transform our lives as well. And in
Speaker 2: this episode today I wanted to touch on something we
Speaker 2: just missed, and that's Valentine's Day.
Speaker 3: Love.
Speaker 2: Right, We tend to think that the Old Testament God
Speaker 2: is not loving, he's not caring, he's judgmental, he's stern.
Speaker 2: He brought fire and rain, and he brought down fire
Speaker 2: on Sodom and Goamoor in floods, and he's just a
Speaker 2: bad man. Well guess what God is, not who you
Speaker 2: think he is. That's coming up in this episode of
Speaker 2: Let's Get Biblical, But be first, we've got to get
Speaker 2: some house cleaning out of the way. Please make sure
Speaker 2: you go like our YouTube page. Let's Get Biblical with Kdie.
Speaker 2: We have some fun over there. We have some fun
Speaker 2: memes and shorts over there, and we're also going to
Speaker 2: be bringing you some shows over there as well, some
Speaker 2: more sermons, some short sermons. Go over there and support
Speaker 2: us as well. Some changes are coming to this podcast too.
Speaker 2: We're going to be doing more of our faith breaks,
Speaker 2: which are more designed to give you quick little faith
Speaker 2: breaks throughout your week, ten minutes sermons from here and
Speaker 2: there in a fun, unique way, and coming up over
Speaker 2: the next couple weeks. Starting next week, we're going to
Speaker 2: have a couple new series on this show. We're going
Speaker 2: to bring you Bible Verse Breakdown, where we take a
Speaker 2: Bible Verse, break it down and wrap it around the
Speaker 2: world around us, kind of like what we do now,
Speaker 2: but we're only gonna take one piece of scripture and
Speaker 2: use it in our world that's going on in front
Speaker 2: of us today. Then we're also gonna do Music Verse Breakdown.
Speaker 2: Will take some good old gospel music you may not
Speaker 2: have heard of, Zach Williams, Chris Tomlin, even the likes
Speaker 2: of Forrest Frank. Listen to one of their songs or
Speaker 2: two of their songs, enjoy the warship music, and then
Speaker 2: we're gonna break down what it means in my life,
Speaker 2: in your life, in the world around us. So don't
Speaker 2: miss Bible Verse Breakdown and Music Verse Breakdown coming up
Speaker 2: over the next couple weeks. Here on, let's get biblical
Speaker 2: with KD. But let's get into the show today. I
Speaker 2: have been really thinking about how a lot of people,
Speaker 2: including myself, before I came to Christ viewed God. How
Speaker 2: do you view God? If you're a non believer, I
Speaker 2: can tell you what you think right off the bat,
Speaker 2: and yes I can. I am like miss Cleo back
Speaker 2: in the days where you call that one eight hundred
Speaker 2: number and she can tell you your fortune and fame
Speaker 2: and all that. Yeah, I can tell you how exactly
Speaker 2: how you were or what you think about God. You
Speaker 2: also kind of lump Jesus into that format. See, we
Speaker 2: tend to take God from the Old Testament and look
Speaker 2: at him as this old man sitting on a hill
Speaker 2: and basically telling us what to do and not to do,
Speaker 2: kind of like maybe our earthly father, maybe somebody in
Speaker 2: your life that is a leader that you look at
Speaker 2: that way, that that's all they're therefore, and you've maybe
Speaker 2: never seen them show you love or grace or empathy,
Speaker 2: not even a hug. But then when you flip the
Speaker 2: pages and you go into the New Testament, we learn
Speaker 2: about this man named Jesus who is all about love,
Speaker 2: because the greatest commendment of all is what love. We
Speaker 2: say that each and every week here on the show.
Speaker 2: So there's two different gods, it seems like, right, But
Speaker 2: remember they're three and one. Remember they're three and one.
Speaker 2: The God, the Father, the Holy Spirit, and Jesus all together,
Speaker 2: all in one for God's send his only begotten son
Speaker 2: in human form down here to go through these things
Speaker 2: that he went through, so we could actually see what
Speaker 2: it was like for a human to be persecuted for
Speaker 2: something he believed in. Nobody believed God and what he
Speaker 2: was doing in the Old Testament. You're wondering when I'm
Speaker 2: talking about old time heads, right, You're like, Oh, people believed, yes,
Speaker 2: a select few. There was a reason why God sent
Speaker 2: a flood on this earth. There's a reason why he
Speaker 2: went to Sodom and Gomorrah and released fire down upon
Speaker 2: Sodom and Gomorrah. Sodom and gomor was doing things that
Speaker 2: we see today in this world. A lot of shake
Speaker 2: into that dairy air, and we see a lot of
Speaker 2: that sexuality out there, where men are with men, women
Speaker 2: are with with women, some are dressing up as the others.
Speaker 2: This happened in the Bible. And for you non believers
Speaker 2: out there, I want to give you another phrase that
Speaker 2: you've heard in your life that's not biblical. History repeats itself.
Speaker 2: History repeats itself from Wars to stories, to famine, to
Speaker 2: the trends we see today such as sodom and gomorrah.
Speaker 2: We see it all the time. Go watch some of
Speaker 2: your entertainment out there. Go watch Sabrina Carpenter, sorry, pardon
Speaker 2: my French, half assed and out there shaking it for
Speaker 2: your young children, showing them that it's okay to be
Speaker 2: that sensual and sexual. Is it? Is it? Because your
Speaker 2: child's fourteen? Then you wonder why certain things happen because
Speaker 2: they're out there scantily clad saying it's okay, Sabrina Carpenter,
Speaker 2: does it? We see the way certain people act in society.
Speaker 2: I was brought up during the times of NWA two
Speaker 2: Live crew, and we still see that happening today. And
Speaker 2: guess what. That stuff messed up my life because I
Speaker 2: did not know God then I knew of something. I
Speaker 2: knew there was something out there, but I was like, ah, yolo, though, man,
Speaker 2: you only live once. No, you can live forever, because
Speaker 2: that's what God wants you to do, to be with
Speaker 2: Him in the Kingdom of Heaven one day, and all
Speaker 2: you have to do is repent. Now, before we get
Speaker 2: into that part of the show, I just want you
Speaker 2: to know that history repeats itself. Sodom and Gomorah was
Speaker 2: the same way. There was a lot of bad things
Speaker 2: going on in the times of Noah, and this is
Speaker 2: what the flood came through. What are you getting at, Katie?
Speaker 2: That shows right there that God, the God of the
Speaker 2: Old Testament, didn't care, showed no love, showed no respect. Well,
Speaker 2: if you read further, the Israelites, for many many years,
Speaker 2: man would say, we love you. God came here, Oh, yes,
Speaker 2: thank you for saving us, showing a salvation. We are
Speaker 2: coming to the Promised Land. And then they screw it up.
Speaker 2: They screw it up again, and then God has to
Speaker 2: do something else, and then they mess it up again,
Speaker 2: and they mess it up again, and they mess it
Speaker 2: up again. This has been happening since Adam and Eve.
Speaker 2: Oh what, Katie, huh? We all mess up every day,
Speaker 2: every second, every hour. But do you show yourself any
Speaker 2: grace for that? I have a hard time sometimes when
Speaker 2: I mess up. It's hard for me to show myself grace.
Speaker 2: But man, I'm so thankful that there is a God
Speaker 2: in heaven that gives us grace and empathy, regardless of
Speaker 2: the one you read about in the Old Testament or
Speaker 2: the New Testament, the Old Testament. He continue to show
Speaker 2: us grace because we kept screwing up Adam and Eve,
Speaker 2: the times of Noah, the Israel lighte. Now, there were
Speaker 2: people in the Bible, such as Abraham and Moses, Noah
Speaker 2: that really were with God. And this is why they're
Speaker 2: a part of our lineage. There's still a part of
Speaker 2: our lineage today because there's something in you tugging at you,
Speaker 2: saying you're good enough, you're better enough, You're loved, You
Speaker 2: are loved regardless of it. This world shows you if
Speaker 2: you have a mother and father that don't show you love,
Speaker 2: there's somebody that loves you, and that's our father in heaven.
Speaker 2: And you're like, no, No, God, God showed all that
Speaker 2: hardcore stuff. He wiped the earth. He's gonna do it
Speaker 2: again one day. He is gonna do it one day.
Speaker 2: But he does it for a reason because the goodness
Speaker 2: in us, and when we repent to him, will be
Speaker 2: here to see that goodness, just like Noah was. Noah
Speaker 2: was here, started a whole new generation. Then we messed
Speaker 2: up again. Wars and famine and egos set in across
Speaker 2: the land. Slavery happened in Israel. The Israelites were taken.
Speaker 2: Their land was taken, but it's their land, you're right.
Speaker 2: And God tried to show them the goodness of that,
Speaker 2: but they would not listen. Oh, who's that sound like us?
Speaker 2: We human beings don't listen because we think we know
Speaker 2: it all. Oh who's that sound like? Hey, parents, every
Speaker 2: child that you've ever had to parent, am I correct
Speaker 2: out there? Absolutely right? You can laugh at that. Every
Speaker 2: child out there that don't listen, that's us. We're God's children.
Speaker 2: We don't listen, we disobey, we're disobedient, but He continues
Speaker 2: to show us grace and empathy and love throughout the
Speaker 2: whole Bible, including the Old Testament. Father's out there. The
Speaker 2: best way to break this down, are you ready? You
Speaker 2: have children and you continue to take a rod to
Speaker 2: their back, which you do as correction, but you also
Speaker 2: have to show grace, empathy and love. Sometimes we forget
Speaker 2: about that part.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 2: Some of us were brought up with fathers that beat us.
Speaker 2: Some of us were throwing into closets, and you go,
Speaker 2: think about what you did, and they show that power
Speaker 2: that everybody thinks that God is about in the Old Testament.
Speaker 2: They think that's all he's about. Oh, he's a stern
Speaker 2: god sitting on a throne of judgment, that's all he is.
Speaker 2: And he's just gonna judge you. He's going to judge
Speaker 2: you one day. But in the Bible, he's trying to
Speaker 2: correct us, trying to show us the good to come
Speaker 2: to him. So, fathers, when you're continue to get in
Speaker 2: trouble on it irritates you, and you get mad and
Speaker 2: more mad, and you get loud and more louder. Does
Speaker 2: it work. It may for a moment like a band aid, right,
Speaker 2: you got a band aid on, they're scared of you.
Speaker 2: That's why it works. This is what people think of
Speaker 2: God and the Old Testament. They think when he yells
Speaker 2: or does something like a flood or something tragic, it's
Speaker 2: a band aid. They're like, okay, and then they go
Speaker 2: back to doing what they were doing. So this is
Speaker 2: why Jesus Christ was sent. Jesus was sent to show love, grace,
Speaker 2: empathy in the form of a human being. God said,
Speaker 2: you're not gonna listen to me, but you're gonna listen
Speaker 2: to the savior of the world, my only begotten son, Jesus.
Speaker 2: I know you will. It may not be right, then
Speaker 2: and there because you're gonna nail him to a cross.
Speaker 2: So you still don't believe. Okay, Well, the next time
Speaker 2: I see you, I'll be riding on a white horse
Speaker 2: casting out all the evil in the world. And the
Speaker 2: question is do you believe? Because if you don't. It
Speaker 2: even says in the Bible that every knee will bow
Speaker 2: when Jesus arrives. Do you think it's coincidence that you
Speaker 2: hear the phrase that every name will shudder in the
Speaker 2: name of Jesus. Non believers out there, have a have
Speaker 2: a have a question, have a Q and a session
Speaker 2: with a non believer, Bring up Jesus. See what happens.
Speaker 2: Just mention the name Jesus. Their demeanor changes. It does,
Speaker 2: doesn't it. You may be listening right now and being
Speaker 2: a non believer, and every time I say the word Jesus,
Speaker 2: that's where the demons shudder. And I'm not saying that
Speaker 2: you're a demon, but there may be spirits swelling around
Speaker 2: you right now trying to keep you from him. So
Speaker 2: every time you hear the word Jesus, it makes you
Speaker 2: feel uncomfortable, and maybe that's why you don't repent and
Speaker 2: go to him. But it should be the complete opposite.
Speaker 2: You should be going to him, going to that person
Speaker 2: with his arms wide open, a gop a love and
Speaker 2: love that we don't understand, such a great love that
Speaker 2: every time we mess up, there's somebody right there to
Speaker 2: hold us. Can you say that about somebody in your
Speaker 2: world right now? Even my mother and father? Many many
Speaker 2: times when I kept screwing up and I keep screwing
Speaker 2: up and I'm looking just for a hug, would I
Speaker 2: get that love?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 2: Not all the time. This is every time we mess up.
Speaker 2: Every time he's there, we turn to him and say, Lord,
Speaker 2: forgive me, wash me of my sins, and he'll do
Speaker 2: just that. But you has to continue to go after
Speaker 2: him to build your repentance and away from that sin.
Speaker 2: One of our favorite phrases on the show here is
Speaker 2: we all fall short of the glory of God Book
Speaker 2: of Romans. This is not a cop out to continue
Speaker 2: doing what you're doing that's sinful. It's to remind us
Speaker 2: that that agape love is there. His arms are open,
Speaker 2: just like with the Israelites, just like the people that
Speaker 2: were on earth that wouldn't listen, the ones that continued
Speaker 2: doing sinful things. Our God and the old Testament had
Speaker 2: to make a statement because his arms were open, but
Speaker 2: nobody was coming to him. But he showed grace by
Speaker 2: saving a few. So their word about our Father and
Speaker 2: Heaven can be continued today in twenty twenty six. The
Speaker 2: stories of Moses go on, the stories of Abron go on,
Speaker 2: the stories of Noah continued today, Jonah and Moore, the
Speaker 2: Bible is such a love letter to us, guys. And
Speaker 2: this is a perfect time to talk about this, because
Speaker 2: we just got done with Valentine's Day, where we're sending
Speaker 2: out letters. We're sending out cards, we're sending out things
Speaker 2: of love and affection to get affection back. But do
Speaker 2: you realize we can do that now with our Lord
Speaker 2: and Savior Jesus Christ, and just say I love you
Speaker 2: so much, thank you for waking me every day. Something
Speaker 2: that simple puts a smile on his chest and a
Speaker 2: warmth in his heart, and then it radiates back into
Speaker 2: your life so you can give it to others. But no,
Speaker 2: we got to go buy cards and candy and jewelry
Speaker 2: to show I love you. It's not about that, and
Speaker 2: neither has Our God and the Old Testament. Our God
Speaker 2: and the Old Testament loves us so much and showed grace.
Speaker 2: Grace is all over the Bible in many verses. Ephesians
Speaker 2: chapter two eight through nine states four, by the grace
Speaker 2: you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves.
Speaker 2: Notice it's not about you, it's about Him. It is
Speaker 2: a gift of God, not of works. It's not about
Speaker 2: what you do for God. Reason why we do the
Speaker 2: good works of God is because He's done so much
Speaker 2: for us. You may be sitting there right now and
Speaker 2: he hasn't done nothing for me. You still got breath
Speaker 2: on your lungs. He giveth, he can take it away.
Speaker 2: Be grateful for the thing in your life right now,
Speaker 2: which is life before you continue to be blessed with
Speaker 2: His love. I hope that makes sense. But again, Ephesians
Speaker 2: chapter two eight and nine says, for by grace you
Speaker 2: have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves.
Speaker 2: It is a gift of God, not of works, lest
Speaker 2: anyone should boast. This verse emphasizes this salvation is a
Speaker 2: gift from God, not something we can earn through actions.
Speaker 2: Corinthians tewod Corinthians chapter twelve, verse nine. But he said
Speaker 2: to me, my grace is sufficient for you, Oh his
Speaker 2: grace is there. We're the ones that rebel and push
Speaker 2: it away. For my power is made perfect in weakness.
Speaker 2: You're weak right now. You're weak, you're struggling. You don't
Speaker 2: know why you lost your job. You don't know why
Speaker 2: you're hitting the bottle. You don't know why you're hitting
Speaker 2: your wife. Wives, you don't know why you're cheating on
Speaker 2: your husband. You don't know why you're yelling at your kids.
Speaker 2: You're weak right now. We're weak as human beings. And
Speaker 2: the devil loves that. The devil loves to come on
Speaker 2: in and say, oh, see the weakness. Now, I'm going
Speaker 2: to try to break your family apart. If that was
Speaker 2: a human being coming into your house to break your
Speaker 2: family apart, men, would you allow it?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 2: Women would you allow it?
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 2: This is why we need to take a stand. And
Speaker 2: God is right there waiting for us, us, waiting for
Speaker 2: us to tag him in as his tag team partner.
Speaker 2: But we're greedy, we're greedy human beings. We can do
Speaker 2: it all right. Second Corinthians, chapter twelve, verse nine. We
Speaker 2: finished that by saying, but he said to me, my
Speaker 2: grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made
Speaker 2: in perfect in weakness. Therefore, I will boast all more
Speaker 2: gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest
Speaker 2: on me. Boast in weakness, Lord, I am weak. Drop
Speaker 2: to your knees, cry, pound the floor, throw that bottle
Speaker 2: off the wall that you don't need to put into
Speaker 2: your system anymore. Be weak to him. Excuse me. And
Speaker 2: some of you may not know how to be weak,
Speaker 2: because we're brought up in a world where we're tough
Speaker 2: and strong, and you need to do it on your own,
Speaker 2: and only you can do what you want to.
Speaker 3: Do really.
Speaker 2: Well. There's a reason why you hit that glass ceiling
Speaker 2: in life, career, romance relationships, because you think you're doing
Speaker 2: it on your own. We'll close with Titus chapter two,
Speaker 2: verse eleven, For the grace of God has appeared, bringing
Speaker 2: salvation for all people. The verse highlights the universal nature
Speaker 2: of God's grace available to everyone. God showed grace right
Speaker 2: from the beginning. God showed grace in the Bible. God
Speaker 2: showed it in the Old Testament, and then brought Jesus
Speaker 2: Christ to just come along and show love empathy. Now
Speaker 2: did Jesus show signs that he was human? We always
Speaker 2: bring this up. He does turn those tables in a tabernacle,
Speaker 2: showing that you can get upset. Okay, there's not anything
Speaker 2: wrong with getting angry or upset, but resting in that
Speaker 2: anger and being upset and depressed, that's where the enemy
Speaker 2: wants you, not where Jesus Christ wants you. So just
Speaker 2: remember the same God of the Old Testament. It's the
Speaker 2: same God in the New Testament, and it's the same
Speaker 2: God that will reign forever one day. But the question
Speaker 2: is are you going to heaven? Do you know you're
Speaker 2: going to heaven? Have you shown grace to yourself? Have
Speaker 2: you shown yourself grace to the Lord? Today? Seek salvation?
Speaker 2: Find someone and say listen, I don't know if I'm
Speaker 2: going to heaven. I heard this guy on a podcast
Speaker 2: say listen, I don't know if I'm going to heaven.
Speaker 2: I need help. Well, if that's you, right now, let's
Speaker 2: pray real quick. We'll close with Chris Tomlin's amazing grace
Speaker 2: because God shows that grace and love from the Old
Speaker 2: Testament from the beginning. He's not who you think he is,
Speaker 2: that mean old man sitting on a throne. No, he
Speaker 2: is love, empathy, grace, power, He's everything we need. But
Speaker 2: if you don't have that in your life right now,
Speaker 2: and you want to come. You want to know what
Speaker 2: it's about. Just close your eyes, lift your hands, turn
Speaker 2: those palms to the sky. You may never have a
Speaker 2: prayed and it's okay. I got you. Just repeat after me.
Speaker 2: Dear God, I come to you in the precious name
Speaker 2: of Jesus. Thank you for this day. Thank you for
Speaker 2: I allow me to find this podcast. Thank you for
Speaker 2: the little things that I overlook. Dear God, I can't
Speaker 2: do this on my own anymore. I need your help.
Speaker 2: I need you to save me. I believe that you
Speaker 2: were man, that you had died, and that you rose
Speaker 2: again on a third day for my victory and yours.
Speaker 2: Dear Lord, wash away my sins. Make me new again.
Speaker 2: I need you allow me to be your servant. Cast
Speaker 2: away those fears and sins. Today, Lord make me new. Please.
Speaker 2: I love you and Amen. Now that you've knocked on
Speaker 2: that door that's always been open for you, guess what,
Speaker 2: it's just going to get a little bigger. And he's
Speaker 2: right there waiting for you. Pick up the Bible, start
Speaker 2: to read, and just remember you need to continue to
Speaker 2: show yourself a little grace because our Father in the
Speaker 2: Old Testament. Did that just for us. He showed us grace.
Speaker 2: We'll see you next week on the show. Guys. Here's
Speaker 2: the greatest version of amazing grace, Chris Tomlin, God, bless
Speaker 2: you amen.
Speaker 4: See a rage like me.
Speaker 1: I was lost, but now.
Speaker 4: Fat was blood. But now as seen twas grace. That's
Speaker 4: all mad to fit agrace.
Speaker 5: My feet rely.
Speaker 4: Have raciousted that grace appeared the affirt believed machades art.
Speaker 5: I've been said, my got my safe, or has ransom.
Speaker 3: And lack of flood.
Speaker 4: His mercy gret.
Speaker 6: On ending love.
Speaker 4: A basic grace. Flood has promised good to me, his
Speaker 4: word my hope secured.
Speaker 2: He my shatter and.
Speaker 3: Shoot me.
Speaker 6: As long as I indu.
Speaker 5: But she had talked, I've been sent free my god,
Speaker 5: my sack your strandsome.
Speaker 3: For me, and lack.
Speaker 5: Of its mercy on ending flood.
Speaker 1: A base, but shame.
Speaker 3: I have been said, I back and my sad reto
Speaker 3: taking back of.
Speaker 4: Raised ending love.
Speaker 3: Basic green.
Speaker 6: The earth shout soon dissolved like snow the sun for
Speaker 6: bed shin.
Speaker 2: But God, who call me.
Speaker 3: Blow will be for a man, will be for
