WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.900 Joining us now is the legendary Jack Kibbs. 00:00:02.940 --> 00:00:04.680 Jack, we missed you at the inauguration, 00:00:04.820 --> 00:00:05.939 but you made the right move. 00:00:06.380 --> 00:00:07.140 How is your house? 00:00:07.300 --> 00:00:09.420 How are things going in Southern California right now? 00:00:10.190 --> 00:00:15.210 Yeah, Charlie, we're good for now. The winds have been intense as you can imagine some of these winds 00:00:15.210 --> 00:00:20.670 Charlie been clocked up to 95 miles an hour someplace reported a hundred miles an hour 00:00:20.670 --> 00:00:22.110 We've been with 00:00:22.672 --> 00:00:26.750 With power off power. We've had four and a half days with no power 00:00:26.750 --> 00:00:29.770 but um the fires are predominantly 00:00:30.430 --> 00:00:34.850 West of us and right now I gotta tell you right now rather 00:00:35.760 --> 00:00:40.560 Southern California is a powder keg. Everybody needs to be alert to be watching for anything 00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:45.980 and everything because there's definitely some nefarious activity going on. I'm sure you'll 00:00:45.980 --> 00:00:48.380 hear more about that as investigations unfold. 00:00:50.560 --> 00:00:54.460 Absolutely. I want to talk about California in a minute, because the President is going 00:00:54.460 --> 00:00:58.920 to California, as you well know, Jack, in just a couple of days. As one of his first 00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:02.820 trips, he's going to North Carolina, then he's going to California. And I just think 00:01:02.820 --> 00:01:08.280 that's remarkable. But Jack, just from a pastor and a theological standpoint, and Jack, you 00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:12.800 deserve such great credit for your moral clarity, your fight for liberty, and how you presented 00:01:12.800 --> 00:01:17.000 to your congregation and your millions of people in your national audience, the stakes 00:01:18.560 --> 00:01:25.680 What is your take, what is your message to the audience seeing this inauguration and 00:01:25.680 --> 00:01:27.780 President Trump getting back in the White House? 00:01:29.140 --> 00:01:33.660 Well, the fact that God says in the word, I establish kings and I remove kings. 00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:39.600 Also Charlie, the wake up call is that God gives us leaders that we deserve. 00:01:40.020 --> 00:01:40.780 So what happened? 00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:51.220 The turnaround, Charlie, I believe is 100%. 00:01:51.220 --> 00:01:53.520 I know this almost sounds self-serving to you and I, 00:01:53.620 --> 00:01:55.360 but I believe the turnaround has been 00:01:55.360 --> 00:01:56.820 because we have reached out. 00:01:56.960 --> 00:01:58.880 We have been faithful to reach out, 00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:00.700 pleading to God's people to fast, 00:02:01.060 --> 00:02:03.060 to pray, to seek God's face. 00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:07.280 And this is a spiritual gift given to us by God. 00:02:07.420 --> 00:02:08.780 Now, people are gonna take issue with that 00:02:08.780 --> 00:02:12.640 regarding Donald Trump's bombacity or morality. 00:02:12.960 --> 00:02:14.800 Excuse me, we're all in that same boat. 00:02:15.180 --> 00:02:16.520 Jesus alone is perfect. 00:02:17.470 --> 00:02:22.190 And Trump is not our pastor, he is our president, and he was a great president. 00:02:22.910 --> 00:02:27.770 He's going to be a greater president because God's hand is upon him, nobody can deny this. 00:02:28.250 --> 00:02:32.650 And so the fact of the matter is, Charlie, I believe that what has been happening here 00:02:32.650 --> 00:02:37.970 in California for quite some time has actually been exhibited in these United States and 00:02:37.970 --> 00:02:41.430 that is God has given us a glimmer of hope for now. 00:02:41.770 --> 00:02:45.730 And I think it's appropriate that he's coming to California not only because of the fires, 00:02:46.130 --> 00:02:47.450 but he knows well. 00:02:47.920 --> 00:02:54.180 that California since 2014 has been turning red. And Charlie, I'm going to go out on a limb here, 00:02:54.240 --> 00:03:02.380 brother. I am going to say that in the upcoming elections, the midterms and beyond, 00:03:02.740 --> 00:03:05.300 California is going to shock the nation. You watch and see.
