WEBVTT - A Spiritual Revival with David Limbaugh 0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:02.960 So I think it's pretty obvious as we see the 0:00:03.040 --> 0:00:07.000 decline of our society when you have the left that 0:00:07.080 --> 0:00:09.720 supports a boarding babies up until the moment of birth, 0:00:10.200 --> 0:00:13.720 they support castrating a young boy, giving a young girl 0:00:13.800 --> 0:00:16.479 a double missectomy, when of course they can't consent to this. 0:00:16.640 --> 0:00:19.480 They don't know what they want to be, who they 0:00:19.480 --> 0:00:23.040 want to be. I mean, kids have imaginary friends, and 0:00:23.079 --> 0:00:26.000 so we see this destruction of our our country made. 0:00:26.079 --> 0:00:27.880 I think it says everything about a nation and the 0:00:27.920 --> 0:00:32.000 way they treat children, the most vulnerable, and their society. 0:00:32.080 --> 0:00:33.840 So it says a lot about where we are now. 0:00:34.440 --> 0:00:37.440 And I think it's no secret that that correlates with 0:00:37.560 --> 0:00:43.559 the loss of religion in the country as well. And 0:00:43.560 --> 0:00:46.320 then that really is what the Democrat the left policies 0:00:46.360 --> 0:00:49.680 aim at. It's to devalue the things that have value 0:00:50.440 --> 0:00:54.080 in life, to deprive people of meaning, to uproot people, 0:00:54.160 --> 0:00:56.800 to to to deny them and deprive them of having 0:00:56.840 --> 0:00:59.200 anchors in their life. Because if you have an anchor, 0:00:59.640 --> 0:01:03.520 relate gin family, these things that actually have meeting in life, 0:01:03.520 --> 0:01:07.800 you're not malleable, you're not easily persuaded. The government doesn't 0:01:07.800 --> 0:01:12.280 own you. You're a harder person to control. So for 0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:15.320 this episode, we're gonna have David Limbaugh, who's a friend 0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:17.720 of mine also my attorney. You also know him as 0:01:17.720 --> 0:01:22.000 a nationally syndicated columnists, a political commentator, a commentator. He 0:01:22.040 --> 0:01:25.800 has written I believe, ten New York Times best selling books. 0:01:26.560 --> 0:01:29.160 So we're gonna talk about, you know, what's going on 0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:31.440 in this country with the loss of faith, the loss 0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:35.320 of religion, the destruction that the left is intentionally bringing 0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:38.600 upon our nation. And we're gonna talk about this new 0:01:38.640 --> 0:01:41.080 book that he wrote called The Resurrected Jesus, And it's 0:01:41.080 --> 0:01:43.200 really cool because he co wrote it with his daughter, 0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:46.760 Kristen Limbaugh Bloom, who I actually met way before I 0:01:46.800 --> 0:01:49.800 met David. She was an intern at Fox forever ago, 0:01:50.600 --> 0:01:52.440 and I just thought she was lovely. She was just 0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:54.440 the nicest person, and so we, you know, got to 0:01:54.520 --> 0:01:58.200 talking and became friends, and now she's doing great things 0:01:58.200 --> 0:02:00.920 in her life, like co authoring this book with her dad, 0:02:00.920 --> 0:02:03.000 that Resurrected Jesus. So we're going to get into that 0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:05.600 and how all of it ties together, sort of the 0:02:05.640 --> 0:02:08.760 loss of religion, the destruction of the country, and why 0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:12.440 this book is so important to him and his daughter. 0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:15.360 We're also going to talk about his late brother, Rush Limbaugh, 0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:18.280 uh and and you know, talk about what he misses 0:02:18.320 --> 0:02:20.639 the most about him and and things that people maybe 0:02:20.720 --> 0:02:23.760 don't know about him that they should. So that's what 0:02:23.800 --> 0:02:35.440 we're gonna get in today, So stay tuned for David Limba. 0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:39.280 All Right, David, I'm so excited to have you on 0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:42.400 the podcast. Full disclosure for everyone at home, David and 0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:45.760 I work together. He is my attorney, but there's nobody, 0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:48.280 nobody better to work with. I'm I'm just so glad 0:02:48.320 --> 0:02:50.480 to have you on my team, and honestly, like if 0:02:50.480 --> 0:02:52.440 I ever get canceled, I know that you'll have my 0:02:52.520 --> 0:02:55.720 back because you actually care about what's going on in 0:02:55.760 --> 0:02:58.320 this country and we share the same views on things. 0:02:58.320 --> 0:03:00.320 So I'm I'm very thankful that it to have you 0:03:00.360 --> 0:03:03.000 as a friend and my attorney. So I appreciate you 0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:05.720 joining the show. Thank you those both ways. I appreciate 0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:08.120 that I appreciate David, and I also I got to 0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:10.040 know your daughter before I got to know you, And 0:03:10.280 --> 0:03:12.600 we'll talk about this awesome book that you guys wrote 0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:16.720 together here in a little bit as well. But you know, David, 0:03:16.760 --> 0:03:19.519 you and I often talk about you know, we look 0:03:19.520 --> 0:03:21.960 at what's going on in the country. You'll you look 0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:24.919 at you know, inflation and soaring gas prices, the loss 0:03:24.960 --> 0:03:28.960 of liberty, open borders. It's all intentional from the left. 0:03:29.840 --> 0:03:33.520 It's with intention It totally is. And it frustrates me 0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:38.400 when I see our colleagues conservative commentators on Fox and 0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:42.920 other places um act as though this is just a 0:03:42.960 --> 0:03:46.920 matter of incompetence or so. I even heard one of 0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:50.320 the people who I otherwise respects say, we we share 0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:53.520 the same goals as the left, we just don't want 0:03:53.520 --> 0:03:55.720 to go about it different. That's so wrong, And if 0:03:55.720 --> 0:03:59.640 we don't understand how radically different their goals are from ours. 0:03:59.800 --> 0:04:04.200 That want to utopian our dystopian state. They want they 0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:07.880 actually want to us or in cultural and governmental Marxism. 0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:11.280 And they want the Green New Deal because they want 0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:15.960 to use the government to destroy the domestic energy industry 0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:20.159 and they want to ultimately leverage that into control of 0:04:20.200 --> 0:04:24.040 the population. They want to shut down speech selectively of 0:04:24.360 --> 0:04:26.840 conservatives because they want to control the narrative. They want 0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:30.359 to control all power. They pretend to be compassionate, but 0:04:30.400 --> 0:04:34.400 they don't care about anything except themselves and their virtue. Signaling, 0:04:34.400 --> 0:04:37.760 and I think their religion is as morphed into some 0:04:37.839 --> 0:04:43.200 kind of a virtue signaling green energy thing. And uh, 0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:47.120 but they they have alienated us, that polarized us and 0:04:47.240 --> 0:04:51.240 leverage race. They're they're dividing us on race. Race relations 0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:53.920 now are worse than when during the sixties when I 0:04:53.960 --> 0:04:56.479 grew up, when it was so bad. Uh, and it's 0:04:56.480 --> 0:04:59.440 gotten better for so many years. And now they've reinstituted 0:04:59.440 --> 0:05:04.120 SEGREA and they're they're they're trying to destroy the economy 0:05:04.520 --> 0:05:07.240 this inflation. They act like, uh, they don't know what 0:05:07.279 --> 0:05:09.960 they're doing. They know they're flooding the economy with the 0:05:09.960 --> 0:05:13.000 money that we don't have, uh, too too much money, 0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:16.360 chasing too few goods. This isn't a mystery, this isn't 0:05:16.400 --> 0:05:18.840 something they can't figure out. They know, but their ideal 0:05:18.920 --> 0:05:23.200 ideologically wedded to continue to spend this money. And you 0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:25.600 could even argue that that they're doing that on purpose, 0:05:25.640 --> 0:05:28.039 like the cloud Piven thing where they're trying to bankrupt 0:05:28.080 --> 0:05:31.240 this and then pick up the pieces, re introducing their order. 0:05:31.520 --> 0:05:33.600 But it doesn't even have to be Clard Pivn. They 0:05:33.640 --> 0:05:38.200 are trying to uh spend us into oblivion because they 0:05:38.240 --> 0:05:41.000 want to transfer wealth from the people. They can't stand 0:05:41.040 --> 0:05:44.159 the people that are successful, except maybe the digital oligarchs, 0:05:44.200 --> 0:05:48.800 the people on their side, and and just completely reorient society. 0:05:48.839 --> 0:05:54.680 But look lesa beyond that, look at them at glorifying evil, 0:05:54.760 --> 0:05:57.160 the murder of babies. It's not just like it used 0:05:57.200 --> 0:05:59.360 to be safe, legal, and rare, which is always a lie. 0:05:59.680 --> 0:06:03.120 It is glorifying the murder of babies and demonizing those 0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:06.760 who champion life and biblical values. It is glorifying those 0:06:06.800 --> 0:06:12.160 who would mutilate young children in contravention of God's created 0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:16.400 order that he created. Uh, people and men and women, 0:06:17.000 --> 0:06:19.679 men and women. He created them gender specific. He didn't 0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:23.560 create man and women to narcissistic lee identify as whoever 0:06:23.600 --> 0:06:27.479 they wanted to identify. And so they're they're creating moral 0:06:27.520 --> 0:06:31.720 and intellectual chaos. The open borders. They're denying that they 0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:33.960 deliberately opened the borders, and we see it right in 0:06:34.000 --> 0:06:37.039 front of our eyes. Uh. There are at least ten 0:06:37.160 --> 0:06:40.720 existential threats to the United States that they are exacerbating 0:06:40.720 --> 0:06:45.839 and accelerating, including China, who is building, buying land, building military. 0:06:46.120 --> 0:06:48.720 We are downsizing our military and turning it into a 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:54.800 woke laboratory, emasculating it. I can't go on enough about 0:06:54.880 --> 0:06:57.640 how they are trying to destroy the country. But I think, Lisa, 0:06:57.640 --> 0:07:02.120 and I'll end this me andering soliloquy with this, I 0:07:02.160 --> 0:07:04.200 don't think if the country dies it will be a 0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:06.599 result of the left. I think it will be a 0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:11.400 result of naive people on the right who are cowardly 0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:16.560 or naive, are are not are are unwitting opponents, and 0:07:16.600 --> 0:07:19.360 who don't realize what we're up against and therefore don't 0:07:19.440 --> 0:07:23.320 fight like our survival depends on it. I really do 0:07:23.400 --> 0:07:26.480 think it comes down to cowardice. If I'm being honest, 0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:29.120 I think we have too many people who are cowards. 0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:32.240 They want to be accepted by society, even though we 0:07:32.240 --> 0:07:34.440 we look at society and we should be looking at 0:07:34.480 --> 0:07:37.160 it with disdain. As you pointed out, we live in 0:07:37.160 --> 0:07:41.320 a society that embraces the murder of innocent babies, embraces 0:07:41.400 --> 0:07:44.800 the idea of castrating a young boy or or you know, 0:07:44.840 --> 0:07:47.560 giving a young girl double massectomy. So I can't, for 0:07:47.600 --> 0:07:49.960 the life of me, understand why anyone would want to 0:07:50.040 --> 0:07:54.360 be accepted by that. And no, and it's pleasing man 0:07:54.400 --> 0:07:57.920 instead of pleasing God. And I have to believe this 0:07:58.000 --> 0:08:03.200 is spiritual warfare, because there is no logical explanation for 0:08:03.400 --> 0:08:07.040 anyone defending this stuff with a straight face. And yet 0:08:07.080 --> 0:08:10.760 our kids have been indoctrinated. All of the major institutions 0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:15.520 are controlled by the left, from education pay through twelve, 0:08:15.680 --> 0:08:19.960 and then then the universities, and then they own Hollywood 0:08:19.960 --> 0:08:24.400 as we know, they own the digital uh conglomerates and 0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:28.840 and the major media, and so it's it's an unreality. 0:08:28.880 --> 0:08:32.520 It's a twilight zone on steroids. And you try to 0:08:32.559 --> 0:08:36.079 approach I was thinking about this. Name me a Democrat 0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:39.320 that you know, even in your personal life, who will 0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:43.160 vote against what these people are doing, even though you 0:08:43.200 --> 0:08:45.800 would think of these individual Democrats as not being radical, 0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:49.720 yet they all enable and support. That's what discourages me. 0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:53.240 I've got good friends who who don't don't either they 0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:56.120 don't realize it, or they think that we are so evil, 0:08:56.480 --> 0:09:00.800 that the Trump movement is so evil that they they 0:09:00.800 --> 0:09:03.240 would There's not anything that the left would do that 0:09:03.280 --> 0:09:05.920 they won't condone. That's what's horrifying. I can't imagine a 0:09:06.040 --> 0:09:08.760 thing they will do that that that they will oppose, 0:09:09.320 --> 0:09:12.160 and you can approach them and explain these things to them, 0:09:12.160 --> 0:09:17.000 and they have some bizarre explanations or rationalization how they're 0:09:17.000 --> 0:09:20.480 really not doing that, borders really aren't open, and and 0:09:20.720 --> 0:09:23.679 I I don't think there's any relating to these people. 0:09:23.760 --> 0:09:26.960 So as crazy as I said, I think it's demonic 0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:29.199 in the end, because I think they're under some kind 0:09:29.200 --> 0:09:32.839 of a bizarre spell and wedded to their ideology and 0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:35.400 pawns to some kind of evil force. And now I'm 0:09:35.400 --> 0:09:38.520 not like the left saying all Conservatives are evil, are 0:09:38.559 --> 0:09:43.000 all Trump? I'm saying the the forces behind it are evil. 0:09:43.040 --> 0:09:47.240 I think most of them are unwinning dukes. But the 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:50.120 mainstream media, the Democratic politicians and all of them, they 0:09:50.160 --> 0:09:54.040 know what they're doing. And so but it's a complex thing. 0:09:54.120 --> 0:09:59.720 And I think this unwillingness to recognize evil for what 0:09:59.800 --> 0:10:02.760 it is, it is as to reiterrite the point we 0:10:02.840 --> 0:10:05.240 made before. It's what's really going to cause our downfall 0:10:05.240 --> 0:10:06.760 if we don't wake up and if we don't have 0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:09.280 the guts to stand up against it. No, I really 0:10:09.280 --> 0:10:11.400 agree with that. And and if we don't turn it around, 0:10:11.559 --> 0:10:15.000 what really can I mean, we saw a president stand 0:10:15.080 --> 0:10:18.440 up and a national primetime address and label seventy five 0:10:18.480 --> 0:10:20.240 million Americans is an enemy of the state with the 0:10:20.280 --> 0:10:23.600 military flanked behind him. And then what concerns me about 0:10:23.640 --> 0:10:28.200 that this mothering of us of US conservatives. But we've 0:10:28.240 --> 0:10:31.600 already seen sort of the dehumanization of just humans happened 0:10:31.640 --> 0:10:34.160 as a society. Right, We we call babies a clump 0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:37.839 of cells. We are treating children with such disdain and 0:10:37.880 --> 0:10:39.840 the treatment of them. So it's it's we already have 0:10:40.000 --> 0:10:44.720 this society where we don't really view human life as 0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:47.720 this is this sacred thing. And then on top of it, 0:10:47.760 --> 0:10:50.240 you have a president then dehumanizing on top of that, 0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:53.160 seventy five million Americans, and then we see this you know, 0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:55.880 young boy, the eighteen year old who is uh, you know, 0:10:56.120 --> 0:10:59.280 driven down in a car. The guy killed him with 0:10:59.320 --> 0:11:03.120 this car. You you had the prolaywoman who was going 0:11:03.160 --> 0:11:04.679 to door door shot in her arm. And so I 0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:06.959 just I wonder with all of that, in the back 0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:10.199 drop where this goes, well, you know, and that's a 0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:14.920 point a category of existential threat. I didn't mention in 0:11:14.960 --> 0:11:18.400 my litany a minute ago, the disintegration of law and order, 0:11:18.480 --> 0:11:22.280 the deliberate disintegration of law and order, so that you 0:11:22.280 --> 0:11:25.720 you have glorified the victims. I mean the perpetrators of 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:28.800 crime and demonized the victims of crime, refused to prosecute, 0:11:29.200 --> 0:11:31.959 change the bail laws to let people out, change the 0:11:32.320 --> 0:11:37.080 laws on prosecution. You have chaos in the streets of 0:11:37.120 --> 0:11:41.880 the major cities. People are getting slaughtered, the subways aren't safe. 0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:45.000 Old women and young women are being attacked by men, 0:11:45.559 --> 0:11:48.080 and there's no condemnation from the left, and that the 0:11:48.160 --> 0:11:52.760 media doesn't talk about it. And so uh you mentioned 0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:57.680 a minute ago that that there's a diminution of respect 0:11:57.720 --> 0:12:00.200 for life. That's what I mean by just being spirit Well, 0:12:00.240 --> 0:12:04.160 God is about life. The Left is about death in 0:12:04.280 --> 0:12:07.839 every respect. It's a movement of death. Even if you 0:12:07.880 --> 0:12:10.120 want to talk about the environmental movement, they have no 0:12:10.240 --> 0:12:14.720 respect for human life. They put plant life, uh, in 0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:17.679 an elevated position to human life. Some of these wacko 0:12:17.840 --> 0:12:20.560 people think the world would be better off without any 0:12:20.640 --> 0:12:24.080 human beings, and so that the world could survive in 0:12:24.200 --> 0:12:27.800 its inanimate form and we and and human beings are extinguished. 0:12:27.800 --> 0:12:30.520 This is how psycho these people are. And and I 0:12:30.559 --> 0:12:33.040 don't know why we don't call it for what it is. 0:12:33.240 --> 0:12:36.880 What we're seeing on the news every day is beyond belief. 0:12:36.920 --> 0:12:40.960 I can't even believe we're debating it. It's so abjectively wrong, 0:12:41.600 --> 0:12:45.760 objectively wrong. There is no there is no re rational 0:12:45.800 --> 0:12:48.400 debate for much of what is going on, and yet 0:12:48.440 --> 0:12:52.280 the left uh supports it and condones it, and everybody 0:12:52.280 --> 0:12:55.080 that follows the left, i e. The Democratic Party, the 0:12:55.080 --> 0:12:59.080 media and all of them support it. So I am 0:12:59.120 --> 0:13:03.360 I am beyond uh frustrated, beyond concerned of what could happen. 0:13:03.960 --> 0:13:06.640 I don't see, I don't see how we get out 0:13:06.640 --> 0:13:09.920 of this sort of a of a spiritual revival. And 0:13:10.440 --> 0:13:14.120 I'm not kidding you because I don't see uh, any 0:13:14.120 --> 0:13:17.360 indication that there's a stopping We went above thirty one 0:13:17.440 --> 0:13:20.880 trillion international debt, and even the Republican Party doesn't say 0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:25.160 anything about that. I mean, we're condoning spending at an 0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:28.679 obscene level every day, and I don't see the Republicans 0:13:28.720 --> 0:13:32.280 doing much about it either, do you? I don't. And 0:13:32.320 --> 0:13:36.120 again it just gets to this this issue of cowardice, 0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:38.280 of just the fact that I just you know, I 0:13:38.280 --> 0:13:40.559 see it in the media. I see it in politicians, 0:13:40.640 --> 0:13:43.200 of people just not willing to speak out when they 0:13:43.240 --> 0:13:45.960 see what's wrong, or they wait until it's safe and 0:13:45.960 --> 0:13:48.880 the damage has already done. And at that point, oh now, 0:13:49.000 --> 0:13:52.360 maybe you know mass vaccinations are are bad or oh 0:13:52.480 --> 0:13:56.640 now lockdown's are bad, but you'll waited until the damage 0:13:56.720 --> 0:14:00.360 was done, you know, And so that doesn't really anything. 0:14:01.480 --> 0:14:05.280 And and and you've always been an advocate or an 0:14:05.280 --> 0:14:08.600 activist about these vaccines, and you you've been a herald 0:14:08.600 --> 0:14:13.360 out there and right now, the left even though it's 0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:16.520 known that these vaccines have caused all kinds of trouble 0:14:16.600 --> 0:14:18.920 and at the very least we know they don't prevent 0:14:19.000 --> 0:14:21.720 the spread of the disease. And yet you're still getting 0:14:21.760 --> 0:14:25.760 people kicked out of the military, are prevented from coming 0:14:25.760 --> 0:14:29.840 and playing sports in the United States because there's a 0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:33.480 vaccination rule and we know it's absurd. And is there 0:14:33.600 --> 0:14:37.960 some bureaucratic inertia that prevents us from changing these things 0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:41.280 on the spot? And and and look at the military 0:14:41.400 --> 0:14:46.440 which is now inhabited by all the leftists, and and 0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:50.800 uh who who who implement these walk policies? Who are 0:14:50.920 --> 0:14:56.400 are discouraging people by their policies from entering the military? 0:14:56.680 --> 0:15:00.080 I don't know, it's it's I have never seen a 0:14:59.840 --> 0:15:03.600 h more overt case of national suicide in my life. 0:15:03.840 --> 0:15:05.600 We all knew we were on a slow march to 0:15:05.720 --> 0:15:11.160 national suicide for the last probably fifty years, but now 0:15:11.200 --> 0:15:15.200 we're on an accelerated path, and I just cannot believe 0:15:16.400 --> 0:15:18.560 how difficult this is going to be to turn around. 0:15:18.600 --> 0:15:21.520 I still remain optimistic, though, that we can turn it around, 0:15:21.680 --> 0:15:24.480 because I have to be optimistic. I can't afford to 0:15:24.520 --> 0:15:26.400 believe otherwise. I'm not going to give up on the 0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:29.480 United States, you know, and I have hoped to, David. 0:15:29.560 --> 0:15:33.440 I do believe that Republicans will pick up the House 0:15:33.480 --> 0:15:36.200 to set it and some gubernatorial races now, you know, 0:15:36.280 --> 0:15:38.840 again our Republicans going to deliver on all the things 0:15:38.960 --> 0:15:41.600 we want them to. Probably not, but I think it 0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:44.080 can hold them off for a little bit until hopefully 0:15:44.120 --> 0:15:46.800 we get a strong president in there and then you know, 0:15:46.840 --> 0:15:50.280 further turn things around. But I haven't given up hope either. Yeah, 0:15:50.480 --> 0:15:53.280 and and and we can't. But but we do have 0:15:53.440 --> 0:15:58.000 to wake people up. People on Fox people. I really 0:15:58.040 --> 0:16:01.960 like I earned somebody the other days toggesting that and 0:16:02.320 --> 0:16:06.000 somewhat facetiously but not suggesting that Trump and Obama could 0:16:06.000 --> 0:16:10.680 go negotiate this deal with North Korea and that's something 0:16:10.760 --> 0:16:13.640 we can agree up. No If you think that Obama 0:16:13.800 --> 0:16:17.640 and Trump share any kind of views as to foreign 0:16:17.680 --> 0:16:21.240 policy that are reconcilable, then you don't get it. You 0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:23.560 do not get the left, and you don't get Obama, 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:26.280 who was a leftist and he he would have been 0:16:26.320 --> 0:16:29.120 even more extreme if he could have gotten away with it, 0:16:29.160 --> 0:16:32.040 and he's probably one of the main principles running this 0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:35.920 leftward leftward surge right now. I don't understand why people 0:16:35.960 --> 0:16:38.640 on our side do not get it, even people you 0:16:38.680 --> 0:16:43.040 think would get it. I think for me, COVID really 0:16:43.080 --> 0:16:47.120 illuminated who gets it and who doesn't. Personally, Uh, a 0:16:47.120 --> 0:16:49.640 lot of people I previously respected I lost respect for, 0:16:49.720 --> 0:16:52.360 and then people I didn't maybe necessiate, you know, look 0:16:52.440 --> 0:16:55.360 up to that degree, to to that degree, really prove it, 0:16:55.360 --> 0:16:59.160 proved themselves to be uh understand, you know, just getting 0:16:59.200 --> 0:17:02.280 it right and being strong voices on things. Quick commercial 0:17:02.320 --> 0:17:07.880 break back with David Limbaugh. You know, we're really talking 0:17:07.920 --> 0:17:11.639 about this good versus evil that's happening in society. And 0:17:11.680 --> 0:17:14.800 I know that you're someone that you know you you 0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:19.600 previously had doubts about your faith. Why why did you 0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:23.919 and what turned it around for you? Well? I am 0:17:23.960 --> 0:17:27.840 I always believed in God, because I can't imagine that 0:17:28.160 --> 0:17:32.680 how anybody could think that this, that the world could 0:17:32.680 --> 0:17:36.680 come into existence without a primary, uncaused cause. Does that 0:17:36.800 --> 0:17:39.640 even make sense to me? Uh? And so they come 0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:42.800 up with bizarre things like the multiverse or aliens. Dropped 0:17:42.840 --> 0:17:45.040 this here, well, who created the aliens? And it's just 0:17:45.080 --> 0:17:49.080 too absurd to contemplate. But I didn't necessarily subscribe to 0:17:49.119 --> 0:17:53.119 the Bible or to the divinity of Jesus Christ. But 0:17:53.240 --> 0:17:55.720 I wasn't a rebel in that sense. I always thought 0:17:55.960 --> 0:17:58.600 I wanted to. I knew who the good team was, 0:17:58.640 --> 0:18:01.240 the good guys, I knew the right team was. I 0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:04.720 wanted to be on. I wanted to be a believing Christian. 0:18:04.760 --> 0:18:07.520 But I had these doubts that so many have. Why 0:18:07.560 --> 0:18:11.359 would an all loving God allow human beings to go 0:18:11.520 --> 0:18:14.280 to everlasting punishment that kind of thing? And so I 0:18:14.280 --> 0:18:16.480 had those doubts, and I didn't know whether to believe 0:18:16.480 --> 0:18:18.800 the Bible. The real reason I didn't, I think, is 0:18:18.840 --> 0:18:21.359 because I never gave it a real chance, despite growing 0:18:21.400 --> 0:18:23.400 up in the Christian family and church and all that. 0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:26.560 And so I started examining the evidence of reading the Bible, 0:18:27.119 --> 0:18:31.000 and I came away with the the idea that there's 0:18:31.119 --> 0:18:35.960 overwhelming proof for Christianity's truth claims. It is not as 0:18:36.000 --> 0:18:41.000 the last or as the pagan secularist would would assume 0:18:41.359 --> 0:18:44.920 and would claim a blind faith that we have. This 0:18:45.000 --> 0:18:49.200 faith is based on real evidence. Uh that Jesus Christ 0:18:49.280 --> 0:18:53.880 was here, that he was resurrected bodily, and uh that 0:18:55.240 --> 0:19:00.520 uh five witnesses saw it. And these witnesses and these 0:19:00.560 --> 0:19:05.400 disciples told these stories at the risk of their own death. Uh. 0:19:05.560 --> 0:19:09.960 You you might have Muslims or other religious adherents, religious 0:19:09.960 --> 0:19:13.320 adherents of other faiths willing to die for a cause 0:19:13.760 --> 0:19:16.439 that that may or may not be true. But in 0:19:16.480 --> 0:19:18.879 the case of the Christians, there's a distinct difference. The 0:19:18.920 --> 0:19:24.879 early Christians, the disciples, they died, they were martyrs for 0:19:25.040 --> 0:19:28.120 a cause. They would not have they would have not 0:19:28.119 --> 0:19:30.679 not have died for something they knew to be false. 0:19:30.920 --> 0:19:34.439 They were testifying to something. They witnessed, the resurrection of 0:19:34.520 --> 0:19:37.720 Christ and his miracles. They saw these happen, and they 0:19:37.720 --> 0:19:41.399 were willing to suffer unbelievable abuse. They would never have 0:19:41.480 --> 0:19:43.159 done that if they thought it was a why they 0:19:43.200 --> 0:19:46.960 had nothing to gain. And so these there's compelling effences, 0:19:47.040 --> 0:19:52.160 including the supernatural uh, prophecies in the Old Testament, uh, 0:19:52.440 --> 0:19:54.200 and all the way through the Bible, and I could 0:19:54.200 --> 0:19:56.520 go on and on. So after I studied all the evidence, 0:19:56.880 --> 0:19:59.560 I became convinced that it was true, that that the 0:19:59.600 --> 0:20:02.600 Bible was the Word of God. And when I came 0:20:02.640 --> 0:20:05.800 to that realization, it blew me away. I'm holding a 0:20:05.880 --> 0:20:09.080 book that was actually written through human authors by God. 0:20:09.480 --> 0:20:12.920 And so I became an ardent student of it. And 0:20:12.920 --> 0:20:16.000 and since then, you know, thirty years later, I started 0:20:16.000 --> 0:20:18.399 writing books about it, after teaching Sunday School and all that, 0:20:18.440 --> 0:20:20.960 because I want to be able to reach people that 0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:23.639 the pastor and theologian may not be able to reach. 0:20:24.000 --> 0:20:26.920 People who are situated the way I was before. People 0:20:26.960 --> 0:20:30.119 who can relate to a lay explanation of these things 0:20:30.280 --> 0:20:33.159 and inspire people to read the Bible, to practice the 0:20:33.160 --> 0:20:36.800 spiritual disciplines and draw closer to God. That that's my 0:20:36.920 --> 0:20:41.080 real motive in writing these Christian books. How much do 0:20:41.119 --> 0:20:44.040 you think, as we have previously discussed, the decline of 0:20:44.080 --> 0:20:48.320 the country correlates with the decline of religion, um an 0:20:48.359 --> 0:20:56.600 incredible amount, probably about I I find that we have 0:20:56.680 --> 0:21:00.639 gotten away from Biblical values, and it's a direct correlation. 0:21:00.920 --> 0:21:03.639 You see right now, for example, in our society, you 0:21:03.680 --> 0:21:08.399 see the parading of transvestites, are drag queens in front 0:21:08.400 --> 0:21:11.960 of children. We see the promotion of pedophilia. We see 0:21:12.119 --> 0:21:19.399 now the the advocacy of uh, this new polyamory, polyamorous 0:21:19.440 --> 0:21:22.640 relationship where you got let's say, two men and one 0:21:22.680 --> 0:21:27.520 woman in a relationship. These are abhorrant moral developments, objectively 0:21:27.760 --> 0:21:30.600 evil things in my view. And yet we are on 0:21:30.760 --> 0:21:35.359 such a slippery path of moral relativism that anything goes now, 0:21:35.600 --> 0:21:39.239 anything goes for the left except for political conservatism and 0:21:39.680 --> 0:21:43.879 biblical traditional Christian values. That is what it is shown. 0:21:44.040 --> 0:21:48.080 That's how you know these people are. They will support anything, 0:21:48.200 --> 0:21:53.400 including Muslims being mean to homosexuals, as long as it's 0:21:53.400 --> 0:21:57.919 not Christians, so that the common denominator is they opposed 0:21:57.920 --> 0:22:02.000 the Judeo Christian ethic, the j O Christian worldview, and 0:22:03.000 --> 0:22:06.920 anything else, anything else is fine. And so right now, 0:22:07.040 --> 0:22:11.320 the disintegration these moral values has resulted in an abandonment 0:22:11.600 --> 0:22:16.040 of our constitution because the Constitution is built on those values. 0:22:16.440 --> 0:22:19.159 And for example, I'll give any example that you know 0:22:19.440 --> 0:22:23.600 they they the Framers said the Constitution is made only 0:22:23.680 --> 0:22:26.399 for moral and religious people. And I think what they 0:22:26.480 --> 0:22:29.399 ultimately meant by that was if you if you treat 0:22:29.480 --> 0:22:32.399 the Constitution as if it doesn't stay what it means, 0:22:33.040 --> 0:22:35.560 then it doesn't mean anything, and then it disintegrates. And 0:22:35.600 --> 0:22:39.680 that's what judicial activism, leftist judicial activism is. If you 0:22:39.760 --> 0:22:42.560 say the separation of powers doesn't really mean anything, if 0:22:42.600 --> 0:22:47.080 you say that you can rewrite the Constitution to say 0:22:47.160 --> 0:22:52.240 that it requires abortion be allowed, when there's nowhere in 0:22:52.280 --> 0:22:56.040 the world in the Constitution there's the numbers are emanations, 0:22:56.040 --> 0:22:58.440 and they just make this up from whole cloth. Then 0:22:58.520 --> 0:23:01.239 you no longer have any eating and you have no 0:23:01.480 --> 0:23:05.760 order to your life. You when when the left says 0:23:05.840 --> 0:23:09.520 that you can identify as a plant, or as a man, 0:23:09.680 --> 0:23:12.560 or as a woman, you're they are going directly against 0:23:12.600 --> 0:23:17.040 God's created order, which is to have created man, created 0:23:17.280 --> 0:23:20.600 human beings as men and women, not as those, not 0:23:20.720 --> 0:23:23.639 as creatures who could identify who as whoever they wanted to. 0:23:24.040 --> 0:23:28.080 So throughout the entire spectrum of our cultural and political life, 0:23:28.560 --> 0:23:32.200
