Well, we have a special edition to the show today.This is just the afternoon edition that I play for you right now because the election's getting close.It's only a few days off and it's going to be Pastor Jack Hibbs talking about Kamala Harris.
Our studio line is 888-476-3111 and out of the country cat81radio.com.
You guys, I gotta just stop everything and come to you and address those of you who follow me on my various social media platforms.
It's not often when you get handed or when I get handed a gift like this, and this is gonna be a gift that just keeps on giving.And that is a response that I get to make for the first time, like so many people do,
toward me and I'm so grateful for Kamala Harris for giving me this opportunity.This is a message that I've approved.It is too sweet to pass up.I would be negligent if I didn't address it.
It just frankly feels really good to be able to say something like this in light of what you are about to see.
Good morning, church.Good morning.God is good.
God is good.Good morning.Please have a seat, everybody.Please have a seat.
Wow.Perfect.Pastor Jack, you should never talk about politics from the pulpit.You should never address issues, political titles and labels.You should just preach the gospel.
your nose in your church and don't give us anything that has to do with real life and the stuff that we live with every day.That's for the politicians.And if you do something like that, we're going to contact the IRS on you.
We're going to turn you in to the IRS because You mixed politics and the pulpit together.Now, I will agree with Kamala that God is good all the time.That's one of my favorite songs, one of our favorite songs in our house here by Forrest Frank.
is that God is good all the time.And that is true, Kamala.I just want to thank you for going to a church into a pulpit, making sure that you reminded us just how good God is, even though you're a politician.Thank you.
And it is an honor to be with you today on Pastor Appreciation Month, right?As we celebrate, of course, the leadership of this house of worship, and I also
And I also bring greetings from my pastor, Dr. Amos C. Brown from Third Baptist Church in San Francisco.And it is good to be with everyone and worship with you this morning.
Kamala is bringing greetings from her church, from San Francisco, and from her pastor to the congregation.It makes me wonder, the church that she attends, I'd like to find out more about that church. Does it teach the Bible?
Is it a Bible teaching church?Listen, as a believer, we are to examine not only ourselves first, but we are to make sure that our brothers and our sisters are walking with the Lord and all of that, and that we love one another.
If we see something that's wrong, we go to them.If we see that the Bible is against abortion, and at her church, I'm sure her church is against abortion, right?The church that she attends?I'm certain it is.
We have the power to decide the fate of our nation for generations to come. And on this day then, on this beautiful Sunday morning, I am reminded God expects us to help him.
Well, listen, everybody, it is true that we are to know the sovereignty of God and to obey His word and to bring Him glory.All of that is called faithfulness, faithfulness.Every single believer will be judged regarding their faithfulness.
Now, when you read the Bible, does God need our help?She called upon the congregation to help God out.If my God and the God of the Bible needs my help, man, do I have the wrong God.I am out of here. if my God needs my help.
Like a little kid who's three years old who wants to be with daddy mowing the backyard and that little guy or girl wants to help.
Daddy knows it's going to take forever to get this yard done now with little baby in tow, but you do it because of love and you include them because it makes them feel better.
And it's a very cute thing and you can teach them stuff about life and all of that.And it's fun, but you know, it's going to take you twice as long to mow the lawn.Why?Because we don't need their help. We're parenting them.
Even when we get the yard work done, they really didn't do anything, but we bless them.Just know this, the God, the real God, the one and only true God, the only God that lives, does not need our help.
But I am reminded of something that I think speaks deeply to this moment.The Apostle Paul wrote about the power we possess. The power of the people, right?
He wrote that God is able to do more than we ask or think according to his power that is at work in us.
Paul the Apostle teaches us, according to Kamala, that we have the power of the people.We have the power of the people.God gave us the power of the people.Okay, and then she goes on to, because she's in a church, did I say call the IRS, somebody?
Did I say how? do that.Separation of church and state.Someone needs to call that church in and get their IRS tax exemption 501c3 removed.I think I already said that.
But she just literally tried to weave several, maybe three verses together out of scripture, quoting them wrong.
If I would have been her campaign manager, I would have actually had somewhat of an outline message for her to read, have the actual scriptures, and maybe even title them with a topic like, hope, and then a verse, or God's
power to the people, or people power.Paul knew we have the power.Paul taught the exact opposite of that.
But Paul understood something profound, I believe, Pastor, that God's power doesn't just work for us, it also works within us. I grew up in a church that took that lesson to heart.
As a little girl on Sundays, and I know my sister was here recently, my sister Maya and I would go to 23rd Avenue Church of God in Oakland, California, where we attended Sunday school, we sang in the children's choir, and where I first learned in a way that I fully understood the teachings of the Bible and the power of faith.
All right, everybody, I didn't know this.I take everything back that I've said previously, because I just learned that Kamala Harris has learned everything about the Bible fully because of the church she grew up, her Baptist church in Oakland.
I didn't know that.Shame on me, because as a pastor, I should understand the Bible fully, completely.And so she does.So, wow. Okay, what if I were to say to you right now, let's rewind, and I say to you, thanks for tuning in.
Just thought I'd let you know how important it is that you understand.I, as a young man going to Sunday school and going to church in Oakland, I came to the full understanding of what the scriptures say.
Yeah, I think you'd probably grab me by my nose and throw me out.That's not humble. my scriptures.Don't don't do that.
My earliest memories of those teachings are about a loving God.A faithful God.A God who asks us to speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves. and to defend the rights of the poor and the needy.
So this is actually quite shocking, everybody.Kamala Harris quotes here the best she can, Proverbs 31, verses 8 and 9, regarding those who are defenseless, who have no voice, who cannot speak for themselves.
And we are commanded in scripture to rescue them from being crushed destroyed.Whatever Bible version you have, go read Proverbs 31 verses 8 and verses 9.That's what she's quoting.It's a famous and justifiably so pro-life Bible verse.
Those that have a voice are to speak up for those who can't talk yet.Why?It says to prevent them from being crushed. She just used that verse, God heard that.
You're gonna try to make excuses to cover for her and you're gonna start throwing rocks left and right.I just tell you this right now, as a Bible teacher, I tremble.
I tremble Wednesdays and Sundays and any other time I'm speaking to anybody, first with my wife to misrepresent God.And he heard what she just said a second ago.
At church, I learned faith is a verb. We show it in our actions, in our deeds, in our service, and in hard times when we may grow weary in doing good. We must remember the power that works in us.
Kamala, on that comment, sets a high bar.Justifiably so.We're human beings created in the image of God.Just asking you a question.What do you know about her?Stop for a moment.How much did you know about her as vice president?
You know that she was 100% charged by Joe Biden to be the absolute authority on the U.S.borders, specifically the southern borders.So how did that go? Outside of that, what did you know?What do you know about her?
What are her deeds, her good works, her labor of love?My Democrat listener right now, what do you know about her?People in California know the most about her.People in San Francisco and in Oakland know the most of her.
And how are those two cities doing?When's the last time you scheduled a vacation or got a hotel room in Oakland, California?How about San Francisco?You better be selective on where you go.
I was just there not too long ago, very careful as to where I went.You say, why were you there?We were there because we wanted to meet up with our grandkids who live in Northern California.That's Her policies, that's her world, man.
California has been under 100%, 100% Democrat control for decades.And don't mention Arnold Schwarzenegger because he was a Democrat with an R behind his name.The guy was completely fraudulent.He was a Democrat.His policies, go look at them.
No, California is the poster child for the policies of the Democrat Party.
In our communities, and yes, in our democracy, our power to advance freedom, justice, and opportunity, not just for some, but for all God's children.
for all of God's children, except those that are aborted, all of God's children, as long as we get to pick who God's children are.You see, don't let God be God because he gets in the way.We'll decide which ones are God's children.
And the only ones that turns out to be God's children are those whom we allow to live.Those who are not God's children, I assume Kamala is saying, we do not allow to live.Wow, that's convoluted and that's terrifying thinking.
That's why we fight for a democracy.That's why we fight for a democracy. Every voice is important.
It's all right.It's all right.It's all right.Every voice is important.It's all right.It's all right.
So if I didn't introduce this to you enough at the beginning, this is Kamala Harris speaking at a church in Philadelphia because she's got to win Philadelphia.So she's speaking at this big black church and she's hoping to win them over.
And it doesn't go so well because someone starts heckling from the congregation.And you just saw that painful reaction of hers trying to cope with the shock
that not only would somebody in a church respond to her, which, of course, she doesn't spend much pulpit time, so she doesn't realize what it's like to be in a church service where people get up and walk out.
I've even had the one way sign given to me in a church service, but it wasn't my index finger.It was a different finger.There was a salute to me because somebody didn't like what I was saying and off they went.
I agree and disagree with her on this point.
As the security was dealing with this Christian that was probably thinking and decided to respond to the things that she'd been saying, the band started playing, the crowd started making noise, and you can watch how uncomfortable she is when somebody is actually not going along with the program.
I would think if you're a politician, that would be very threatening and very much of an intimidating situation or even scary.As a pastor that speaks truth, I'm absolutely totally used to that.You know what?
When you step into a pulpit, Kamala, that's what it takes.When you step into the pulpit, you got to be able to take hits and blows and fingers and shout outs that don't go your way.Allow me to correct you a little bit as a
former Senator, not me, her, and as a former State Attorney General, not me, her, for California, Senator for California, Attorney General of California, when you say, that's all right, that's all right, it's a democracy, that's all right, she mixed signals there.
Number one, somebody's not going along with the show, they're expressing their whatever it was, their opinion, and that's what happens in a republic.
In most democracies in the world, you'll get killed for doing that, or you'll get hung, or you'll get arrested.Notice that Democrats can only say the word democracy.
faint, for example, in your presence, pass out, lightheaded, whatever, you can get them to snap right to it by just whispering in their ear, constitutional republic.We do not live in a democracy.We live in a constitutional republic.
And I promise you, the Democrat will snap right out of it because like smelling salts, it will jolt their system.She wants you to believe that we live in a democracy and democracies allow you to speak anything you want because remember,
Everybody's voice matters.She said that, and then this person says something to that, and all of a sudden, she says every voice matters.Everybody's opinion matters.But security took the person out.So, which one is it?
Somebody in the room practiced a constitutional republic free speech opportunity.Granted, shouldn't disrupt your religious service because it's a crime.But was it a religious service? It was in a church.It was behind a pulpit.Is she Pastor Kamala?
I don't know.I'll leave that one alone.Let's take a look at some more.
It is in and within our power to fulfill the promise of America.The promise to create opportunity for every child.To protect our basic freedoms.The power to do justice. Love mercy and walk humbly with our God.
Yeah, so she's quoting Micah.Good for her.That's amazing.God's got something to say about that.Before I read what God has to say about that, listen, everybody.Does she really mean what she just said?Does everybody have justice?
She is actually flirting with scripture where it says that we are supposed to exercise justice. we are to show mercy and can you imagine walking humbly with your God and how you'll conduct yourself toward others?
Is that how she treats the unborn child?Does she exercise mercy toward the unwanted child that's in a mother's womb?Regarding her policies as a senator, isn't it amazing?Oh my gosh people, even for
For those of you who are trolls right now and you follow me but you're anti-whatever I believe, you gotta admit, why doesn't anybody ever talk about her voting record as a senator? You just heard it for the first time, didn't you?
This entire process.You wanna know why, first of all, she was never vetted to run for president because she never went through a primary, first time in American history.Question to you, how did Kamala Harris become the nominee for the Democrat Party?
Did people vote for her?Did people get a chance to vote for somebody else?Were there ballots out there?In the primary, did you go out as a Democrat and vote for Kamala Harris? or not?You did not because they didn't have a primary.
They literally wait for it.The Democrat Party literally performed a coup on itself.It aborted Joe Biden and inserted Kamala Harris without one single vote. So let me just give you something before we continue.This is quite amazing.
I'm reading from Psalm 50, Amplified Version Bible.Psalm 50, verse 16.But God says to the wicked, why bother me reciting my word and pretending to obey my covenant?You refuse my discipline and treat my words like trash.
When you see thieves, you approve of them and you spend your time with adulterers.Your mouth is filled with wickedness and your tongue is full of lies.You sit around and slander your own brother, your own mother's son.
While you do all this, I remain silent and you thought I didn't care, but now I will rebuke you. I will reveal all my charges against you, says God.Wow.Kamala just started flirting with the Bible and then she's going to flirt with it a lot more.
And God is basically saying, how dare you use my word?And you you treat it as trash by your actions and by your conduct.But because you're in a church, you're dropping some some of my word like it's like you're pimping my word.
to gain the Black Christian vote?Did anybody see through that in that church?Is anyone seeing through this right now?Are you kidding me?
That would be like me going to a Hispanic church dressed up as a mariachi and talking with some sort of a Mexican accent to get people to come to our church, vote for me.If you don't think people see through that, there's something seriously wrong.
there's something is seriously wrong.Something smells, it's every time she starts talking, she's insulting the God of the Bible and she is not doing loving mercy, giving justice to those who are hurting.Well, I guess she can't, huh?They're all dead.
She's gonna say, ask the babies that in her policies and in her voting record as a senator, how she voted on the defense of the unborn.
what feeds my spirit as I travel around our country from state to state and church to church.
I'm calling the IRS.I'm turning that church in.It's in Philadelphia.I'm calling them up.
I'm gonna ask them to revoke the 501c3 tax exempt status as a church in the United States of America for having a politician stand behind the pulpit and talk about voting for her and campaigning for her and being her.
And you should fall in line with her.That's it.Pull the fire alarm.Somebody do something.This is completely unacceptable. What about separation of church and state?Oh my gosh, separation of church and state.This is horrible.
Who's going to enforce the first amendment and see to it that there's a separation between church and state?We need help.
I see young people organized for change. I see neighbors helping neighbors recover and rebuild from disasters.
I see young people ready for change.I see neighbors helping each other when there's a disaster.
I do not right now have the liberty at this time to speak publicly on what's happening in North and South Carolina, in the extreme East part of Tennessee, regarding neighbor trying to love their neighbor, literally.
with food and water, helicopter evacuation from the devastation of the hurricane, being stopped by FEMA.Being stopped.Question, everybody.
One of the worst natural disasters in American history, worse than Katrina, according to Samaritan's Purse, emergency relief organization.Why aren't you seeing it on the news?I'll tell you why.
It's not gonna make it on the news till after the election.In fact, let me be a prophet.Pretend.Pretend prophet.If Kamala Harris gets elected,
You're not going to hear anything about those that are homeless, devastated and without government care because of their tax dollars being held from them and the government saying you can't go back to your areas and rebuild.
In fact, nobody can come in and help you either.You're not going to hear a word about that.Go to Samaritan's Purse.They're not going to tell you that exactly. on their public domain and then their public site.I get it.
But behind the scenes, I'm talking to people and we have boots on the ground, people we know in that devastated area.And they're telling me the truth.They're telling me what is going on.And FEMA is withholding.
neighbor to loving neighbor with water, food, and care.She knows that, and yet she is banking on you not knowing it.Now, of course, look, if Trump gets elected, he actually caused the hurricane.You know that.You know how that's going to happen.
Let's go back to what she said.Neighbor-loving neighbor would secure the border.In our border states like California, 100 miles south of where I'm at, is the border.
My neighbors, your neighbors, if you live in California, Texas, Arizona, your neighbors are having to get security systems and shotguns, German Shepherd dogs. Communities are hiring drive-by patrols because there are dangerous people here.
Love your neighbor?Kamala, how about giving us some love and shutting down the border?
I see voters standing together in the fight to defend freedom, knowing we all have so much more in common than what separates us.
And while we know there are those who seek to deepen division, to spread hate, to sow fear, and to cause chaos, who suggest that the measure of the strength of a leader is based on who you beat down, instead of what we know the real measure of the strength of a leader is based on who you lift up.
So what is the word sanctimonious appropriate at this moment in her attitude that she's putting out there?She's such a uniter.Did you know that?I must have missed that somewhere.It's so wrong to be divisive. and mean and all this stuff.
Listen, I agree with all of that.But don't confuse someone having a different view than you do as being someone who's divisive.I know her interpretation, understanding of the Woke Dictionary of Tolerance.
In her dictionary, which a lot of people use, tolerance means you must agree with what I I believe and you are not to say a thing about it.In fact, you cannot express your opinion if it disagrees with mine.
That's the woke dictionary definition of tolerance.Division is not always wrong.There's great, good, healthy division that goes on in a church.Evil from righteousness, dark from light.That's good division.Listen,
If your husband's sleeping around and you divorce him, that's a great division.Good for you.There's a big division when the law enforcement sweeps a criminal off the street.That's division.That's separation.Charles Spurgeon said that not all
division is wrong because God extracts out of his church wolves and pretenders and predators.
Let's just calm down about the word division and realize that she's using it to fool these poor people into thinking that anyone who says anything that's opposing her view is an evasive person.Can I remind you that she's the one called
is calling and will continue to call Donald Trump a friend of Adolf Hitler, a modern-day Hitler, and she's calling him a Nazi.Kamala Harris, if you fall for what you heard in that church, thank God that's on you.
and not on me or anybody else that's thinking.This is remarkable.You know what scares me most about all this stuff?Is America really this stupid?Are we really this dumb and blind?Are we real?Wait a minute.Yes, of course we are.
Because I heard people tell me that Gavin Newsom was going to make a great vice president to Kamala Harris.Boy, did He crossed the line, and Obama was the empire, and out he went.All of a sudden, kabang, he's gone.Everybody was saying, he's so tall.
He is very tall.His voice is amazing, sounds like Batman.He does sound like Batman, but Batman's not real, but he does sound like Batman.Anybody that handsome. I'm voting for.People told me that.
I'm going to vote for Gavin Newsom because he's so handsome.Really?That's the criteria?Thank God they didn't apply that to Abraham Lincoln.Poor guy.
They elected one of the ugliest presidents we've ever had that was or just might be one of the most successful presidents we've ever had, Abraham Lincoln.But has America become that lame?I'm going to vote for the first female.Really?
That's the qualification. to run a country, which is a ginormous business.Try walking in to your interview. at IBM or at SpaceX and you say, yep, I'm here for my interview.I'm sure we'll just go through the formalities.
We'll slam dunk this because you have to hire me.I'm a female.Or you have to hire me because I'm a male.Or you have to hire me because I'm not going to tell you what I am.Is that what we are?
Because listen, first of all, if you vote for somebody because they're a female, That means you're a sexist.
If you vote for somebody because they're white or because they're black or because they're male or a female, if that's the reason why you vote for them outside of policy and outside of their political performance, then you are a sexist, you are a racist, you are fill in the blank, but you're anything but being honest.
Listen, you play that card one way, that card comes back the other way.How many people voted for Barack Obama because he was black?I'm sorry, let me rephrase this.Let's be accurate.How many people voted for Barack Obama because he was half black?
If you did, then you're a racist.And if you vote for Kamala Harris because she's a female, you're a sexist.Or if you vote for her because she is
Here in Pennsylvania right now, each of us has an opportunity to make a difference, because in this moment, we do face a real question.What kind of country do we want to live in?
OK, you guys in Pennsylvania and California.
and Montana and Wyoming and in Colorado and New Mexico and in South Dakota, North Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Texas, Tennessee, Louisiana, I'm sure I'm gonna miss this up somewhere, Ohio, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Maine, Connecticut, New Hampshire, New York,
New Jersey, Virginia, West Virginia.Did I say Florida?Did I say North and South Carolina?I know I said Tennessee.Am I missing?I feel so bad if I'm missing you.Puerto Rico, Hawaii.How can I forget Hawaii?Alaska.Listen, here's the deal.
Every single one of us, every single one of us in these states, to be like it was four years ago.That's what we want.We want to go back to where gas prices in California were $3 a gallon.
We want to go back to where going to Taco Bell for Lisa and I didn't cost us 25 bucks.We want to go back to when we could buy Christmas gifts for our kids And we want to go back to when we could take vacations.
And frankly, I've been investing in the stock market since I was 18 years old.I want to go back to the four years under Trump when I made, quite frankly, pretty good money as an investor.I want to go back.Yeah, I think the answer is the 50
That's the answer.Sorry if I missed out on any state.It wasn't intentional.
Because church, I know we were born for a time such as this.
Okay, I know she's in a pulpit, I know she's in a church, but remember the verse I read earlier out of Psalm 50 about God saying, you treat my word like trash?God says, I want my people to tremble at my word.
So I think she's trying to figure out that maybe Esther, maybe four, 14 might be in there somewhere.Here's the scary part to me as a pastor, did anybody in that church recognize what she was trying to do?Trying to act biblical, trying to,
that Christian?Esther 4.14 was from Mordecai speaking to Esther and he's rebuking her because she has been timid.Mordecai is rebuking her because she's been silent.
And it says in verse 14, for if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from some other place.But you and your father's house will perish.
Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this.Mordecai is given the what over to Esther and Kamal is flaunting a very, very goofed up theology.But by the way, don't let evangelicals for Harris get confused by that.
And I have faith he is going to carry us forward and the road ahead won't be easy it will require perseverance and hard work but in times of uncertainty scripture reminds us weeping may endure for a night but joy cometh in the morning
The path may seem hard, the work may seem heavy, but joy cometh in the morning, and church mourning is on its way.God bless you.
So joy comes in the morning and she is calling out Psalm 30 verse five, where it says, for his anger is but for a moment, his favor is for life.Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.I mean, I see where she's going with that.
If I were her, I probably would have used that as well, but I'm not her. If I would have been myself in that pulpit, I would have quoted the entire verse because the verse is a great warning and an encouragement, and it's both.
And when you leave out one for the other, it's a pretense, meaning it's not the full truth.It's half truth and half truth is a lie.Joy comes in the morning that may or may not be true.It depends on whether you deal
with the things that make God angry and you repent of those things.
And that's why God even himself wants his anger to last toward you, toward me for just a little bit, because he wants us to repent of those things so that his favor might be upon us for life.And so we might weep, but joy comes in the morning.
That's the that's the meaning of the verse.It's not that joy is going to come to anybody from any politician.No politician and their campaign results can bring joy.
If that is true for you, then you have a very shallow life and you're actually, you're not experiencing joy.You're just excited and happy about the outcome.I get it.But joy is a divine, divine manifestation of God's Holy Spirit.
And it's one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit mentioned in scripture.So joy comes in the morning.Sadly, in America, we've become so pathetic at voting, so lame, so unable to count votes, to process them.
We're so strange because we keep leaving them along freeways somehow, and they wind up in trash cans.And if that doesn't happen, they wind up getting burned in drop boxes in various states.It's funny how we, the great
In the words of Kamala Harris, democracy can't even vote.So why would any country want this nation to help them to learn how to vote?Are you kidding me?Nope.Wow, that's amazing.
So friends, listen, as she walked off the stage, I do hope that her policies walk off the stage and never come back.Look, for Kamala, I hope she gets born again, comes to know the Lord Jesus Christ personally,
And if that happens, you'll know it because she will announce it to the world because she's got a public platform.She won't be able to keep silent regarding Jesus.He will forgive her of all her horrible votes.
to destroy the unborn child, to give sex changes to violent criminals in prison so they can have a sex change.He'll forgive her of all that.He'll forgive her for characterizing or misrepresenting people.
He will forgive her for all of her indiscretions here in California in her young career all the way through.He'll forgive her because he loves her.But the Bible says he's angry with the wicked day.
And so there's no joy that comes in the morning for anyone who's not a follower of Jesus Christ.May God have mercy on America.
I got a deep down feeling that if I were God and I'd look around at this country, I think I would have Kamala Harris win the election. Because I saw what happened to Israel when they didn't obey God, and they went into captivity in Egypt.
I saw what they did to the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and he took them into Babylonian captivity.And Assyrian empire took them into captivity.If I were God, I would give any nation who treats him like we do, the leaders...
All righty, thanks for tuning in.Jag, Allie, and I will catch you bright and early tomorrow.Until that time, from Jag, Allie, and myself, God bless you, and ta-ta for now.Allie?
