00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:05.000
I think this distinction really matters because there's a difference
2
00:00:05.040 --> 00:00:10.359
between using scripture to win arguments and using truth to
3
00:00:10.519 --> 00:00:17.440
dismantle deception in your own life. One feeds ego right
4
00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:33.119
winning arguments one feed ego. The other builds freedom. If
5
00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:37.840
Paul walked into most churches right now, I think a
6
00:00:37.880 --> 00:00:42.880
lot of people would smile, shake his hand, and completely
7
00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:49.039
miss what he's actually saying. Because Paul wasn't writing cute
8
00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:55.079
encouragement notes from mugs and walwart. He was writing like
9
00:00:55.159 --> 00:01:00.600
a man who knew he was being watched by people
10
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:06.079
by something else. And here's the part that gets me.
11
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:10.640
We live in a time where everybody feels the pressure,
12
00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:16.159
but nobody can agree on the source. Anxiety is up,
13
00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:22.519
attention spans are cooked, families are strained, people are angry
14
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:27.560
for reasons they can't even explain. And lately you've probably
15
00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:33.439
noticed this too. The weird stuff isn't staying in the
16
00:01:33.480 --> 00:01:39.280
shadows anymore, and the paranormal is mainstream. Conspiracy talk is
17
00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:44.560
dinner table talk in a lot of families, and spiritual
18
00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:47.879
language is showing up in places it never used to.
19
00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:53.319
So today on Broadcasting Seeds, we're going to talk about
20
00:01:53.400 --> 00:01:58.200
spiritual weapons and Paul's letters without doing the surface level thing,
21
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:04.280
not the motivational poster version. We're going to dig into
22
00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:08.120
the real version and the kind that makes you sit
23
00:02:08.240 --> 00:02:14.639
back and go wait. If this is true, then a
24
00:02:14.639 --> 00:02:17.719
lot of what I've been calling normal life normal life
25
00:02:18.479 --> 00:02:23.840
might actually be a battlefield with better market better marketing.
26
00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:29.560
If Paul's right, then the war isn't coming, It's already here.
27
00:02:30.759 --> 00:02:35.000
And the scariest chart is you can lose it while
28
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:44.000
thinking you're just having a rough week right now. It's
29
00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:47.800
not just bad vibes, it's not just stress. It's like
30
00:02:48.120 --> 00:02:53.719
there's a coordinated drag on the soul, a low grade
31
00:02:53.759 --> 00:03:02.719
fog that makes you tired, reactive, numb, and distracted. And
32
00:03:02.759 --> 00:03:06.759
if you've ever had one of those moments where you
33
00:03:06.840 --> 00:03:10.919
snap at someone that they love, then later you're sitting
34
00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:15.000
there thinking why why did I do that? It wasn't
35
00:03:15.039 --> 00:03:20.759
even me. You already know what I'm talking about. This week,
36
00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:26.400
we're staying inside Paul's world. This is the second episode
37
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:30.919
of Paul Paul Too, but we're also going to connect
38
00:03:31.000 --> 00:03:37.599
it to hours. We're talking about strongholds and spiritual resistance
39
00:03:37.759 --> 00:03:42.360
and mental intrusion and what it looks like when a
40
00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:46.479
believer actually picks up the tools Paul talks about and
41
00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:53.199
uses them like they're real, because they're real, and ignoring
42
00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:57.759
them isn't neutral. That's just expensive, folks. It's expensive for
43
00:03:57.919 --> 00:04:02.479
you and your soul. The enemy's favorite move isn't possession,
44
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:12.120
it's permission. Get you to agree with a lie, and
45
00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:18.000
you'll polish your own prison. Bottom line. And just so
46
00:04:18.040 --> 00:04:23.319
you know, this isn't going to be a spooky Christian
47
00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:28.279
campfire story episode. It's going to be grounded and practical,
48
00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:32.959
a little unsettling in the right ways. If you're the
49
00:04:33.079 --> 00:04:36.199
kind of person who's been sensing that something is off
50
00:04:37.120 --> 00:04:43.079
in the atmosphere lately, I'm just telling you that you're
51
00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:43.759
not crazy.
52
00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:45.639
You might.
53
00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:52.439
Just be early before we go deeper. Quick favor, because
54
00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:56.360
this is how the show grows. If you get value
55
00:04:56.879 --> 00:05:03.439
out of broadcasting seeds. I love you to like, share
56
00:05:03.600 --> 00:05:09.040
and leave a review wherever you listen. Seriously, I can't
57
00:05:09.079 --> 00:05:13.720
even express to you that the reviews and shares that's
58
00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:19.040
the oxygen for a show like this. And one more thing.
59
00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:22.319
Send this episode to a friend who keeps saying I
60
00:05:22.360 --> 00:05:26.000
don't know what's going on lately, but something feels off.
61
00:05:26.920 --> 00:05:33.199
You guys have heard the sad Nazi. All right, you're ready.
62
00:05:41.879 --> 00:05:49.720
Section one. Strongholds aren't metaphors. Let me hit you with
63
00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:55.600
something uncomfortable. When Paul talks about tearing down strongholds, he's
64
00:05:55.639 --> 00:06:02.920
not talking about bad habits. He's talking about literal, fortified positions.
65
00:06:02.920 --> 00:06:05.920
We've kind of hit this hard over the last week
66
00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:10.839
two weeks with altars and things like this. Think about that.
67
00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:18.120
A stronghold isn't a passing thoughts. It's and it's not
68
00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:24.839
just a bad mood. It's not I had a tough
69
00:06:24.920 --> 00:06:28.439
childhood because so many of us have. A stronghold is
70
00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:34.839
something that has moved in, set up walls, installed security,
71
00:06:34.879 --> 00:06:38.720
and started charging rent in your brain, in your head,
72
00:06:39.240 --> 00:06:43.959
in your heart. And here's where spiritual weapons. In Paul's
73
00:06:44.040 --> 00:06:53.600
letters I get interesting because Paul describes arguments, lofty opinions
74
00:06:53.839 --> 00:07:01.680
and ideas that exalt themselves against truth, their military installations.
75
00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:09.879
Right that strong language, he's saying, thoughts can become structures,
76
00:07:12.199 --> 00:07:18.600
and structures can become territories. We don't fall apart overnight, folks.
77
00:07:19.279 --> 00:07:23.920
You get fortified against truth, one agreement at a time.
78
00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:36.079
Right now, Powerful narratives I'm talking about algorithms, shape, beliefs,
79
00:07:37.600 --> 00:07:44.879
headline shape, outrage, repetition, Shap's identity. Say something long enough
80
00:07:45.800 --> 00:07:50.040
and it becomes obvious, but obvious to who and based
81
00:07:50.079 --> 00:07:53.360
on what you see this with news anchors over and
82
00:07:53.439 --> 00:07:56.759
over and over, everyone's seeing these videos. That's what I'm
83
00:07:56.800 --> 00:08:01.480
talking about, mindless repetition, stronghold. It's worn the same way
84
00:08:02.399 --> 00:08:07.680
you experience pain. A lie offers relieve you agree with it.
85
00:08:08.399 --> 00:08:13.920
I'm not enough, people always leave God's distant. Nothing changes.
86
00:08:14.680 --> 00:08:20.279
It feels protective, right, it feels smart, it feels huh, realistic.
87
00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:26.040
But what if that thought didn't originate with you in
88
00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:29.920
your head? And I'm not saying every intrusion idea is
89
00:08:30.279 --> 00:08:33.879
a demon whispering in your ears. That's not what this is.
90
00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:39.879
Let's stay ground it, okay, But Paul clearly believed there
91
00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:43.679
were unseen influences operating through ideas. And he's not the
92
00:08:43.759 --> 00:08:56.399
only one not horns and pitchforks ideas, cultural currents, intellectual pride,
93
00:08:56.600 --> 00:09:04.840
and internal accusations. Lately, the phrase spiritual warfare, it gets
94
00:09:04.879 --> 00:09:10.759
tossed around like it's dramatic language, even by me. I'm guilty, guilty,
95
00:09:13.039 --> 00:09:17.120
But Paul roots it in the mind. It's absolutely rooted
96
00:09:17.159 --> 00:09:23.159
in the mind. Not theatrics, not spooky manifestations. The battlefield.
97
00:09:26.639 --> 00:09:34.159
The battlefield is interpretation. How you interpret failure and conflict,
98
00:09:34.639 --> 00:09:39.600
and how you interpret silence, and how you interpret suffering.
99
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:45.080
That's where strongholds they just locked right in. And here's
100
00:09:45.120 --> 00:09:49.720
the part that gets personal. Folks. Have you ever tried
101
00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:54.519
to pray and it feels like hitting static, Like your
102
00:09:54.559 --> 00:10:01.320
thoughts are loud, but your spirit feels quiet. That friction
103
00:10:01.519 --> 00:10:05.600
might not be God being distant. It might be a
104
00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:10.960
fortified belief system filtering everything before it reaches your heart.
105
00:10:12.919 --> 00:10:16.600
This is real. The most dangerous Chrisen is the one
106
00:10:16.639 --> 00:10:24.240
that convinces you it's just your personality, I promise, Paul says.
107
00:10:24.399 --> 00:10:29.639
The weapons aren't of the flesh, meaning you don't yell
108
00:10:29.840 --> 00:10:33.200
your way out of a stronghold, and you don't hustle
109
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:39.360
your way out. You don't. You don't self help your
110
00:10:39.360 --> 00:10:46.519
way out either. You dismantlize with truth applied consistently over time.
111
00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:52.360
This is not a one click fix. And that soundsimple
112
00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:57.200
until you try it right, because tearing down a stronghold
113
00:10:57.279 --> 00:11:04.519
feels like so destabilized and it's destabilizing your own identity.
114
00:11:04.600 --> 00:11:09.759
It feels like losing control. It feels like stepping into
115
00:11:09.960 --> 00:11:14.679
open ground without any cover, meaning you have nothing to hide.
116
00:11:14.679 --> 00:11:19.600
Bumping my military folks, people that have watched warmedies get it,
117
00:11:21.960 --> 00:11:27.759
which is why most people don't do it. But here's
118
00:11:27.799 --> 00:11:31.759
the nudge forward. It's my cast sun steam nudge forward.
119
00:11:32.440 --> 00:11:37.559
If strongholds are real, and Paul is right about spiritual
120
00:11:37.639 --> 00:11:43.960
weapons in his letters being capable of demolishing them, then
121
00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:49.600
ignoring this isn't neutral. It means something else keeps building.
122
00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:54.279
And once you see that, I'm telling you that you
123
00:11:54.360 --> 00:12:07.279
can't unsee it. Ready to go deeper. Section two. The
124
00:12:07.559 --> 00:12:12.960
army is awareness. And here's where things get a little sharper.
125
00:12:15.879 --> 00:12:20.039
When Paul describes spiritual doesn't start with offense. He starts
126
00:12:20.080 --> 00:12:23.360
with armor. I just talked about this with somebody in
127
00:12:23.399 --> 00:12:31.399
an episode that's not random. Armor assumes contact and it
128
00:12:31.480 --> 00:12:37.600
assumes pressure. It assumes something is already pushing back. And
129
00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:45.639
if you felt that that heaviness, the mental noise, the
130
00:12:45.679 --> 00:12:50.320
straight up spiritual fatigue, you're not imagining it, folks, I'm
131
00:12:50.320 --> 00:12:59.320
telling you you're not. And right now, distraction. Distraction feels
132
00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:08.000
strategic attention is absolutely currency nowadays, and outrage is monetized.
133
00:13:08.840 --> 00:13:14.960
Confusion spreads faster than clarity could ever imagine, and more chaotic.
134
00:13:15.320 --> 00:13:20.240
The more chaotic things get in our culture culturally, the
135
00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:30.080
more unstable people feel internally. Paul calls out. Paul calls
136
00:13:30.120 --> 00:13:34.960
that out. Before the Internet even existed, it wasn't even
137
00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:41.200
a thought in anyone's mind. Truth as a belt, righteousness
138
00:13:41.600 --> 00:13:48.519
as a breastplate, faith as a shield, Salvation as a helmet.
139
00:13:49.360 --> 00:13:55.639
He's not handing out medieval cosplay here, folks, He's mapping
140
00:13:55.720 --> 00:14:01.559
psychological and spiritual resilience. Think about the helmet for a second,
141
00:14:01.879 --> 00:14:07.240
the helmet. If salvation guards the mind, what happens when
142
00:14:07.399 --> 00:14:14.879
someone forgets who they are? I mean it's identity erosions, right.
143
00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:20.960
You see it everywhere everywhere, people reshaping themselves based on
144
00:14:21.159 --> 00:14:26.679
trends and political swings and cultural waves. One month they're confident,
145
00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:33.679
the next month they're unraveling. Why is that why? Because
146
00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:39.240
their sense of self it's not anchored, it's freaking negotiated
147
00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:47.840
daily with something. And if you don't guard your mind,
148
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:55.039
something else will rent it. Period. Faith as a shield,
149
00:14:55.919 --> 00:15:00.679
this one's this one's interesting. A shield is the passive
150
00:15:01.279 --> 00:15:06.840
you actually raise it. It's active trust. It's choosing not
151
00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:14.639
to internalize every accusation, every headline, every fear projection. Had
152
00:15:14.639 --> 00:15:22.639
this happened flatly too lately. Fear mongering is absolutely con constant.
153
00:15:23.840 --> 00:15:31.080
Economic collapse, war rumors. I mean, look at Iran, among
154
00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:38.960
other things, social division. We've never been more divided, catastrophe cycles.
155
00:15:39.679 --> 00:15:44.840
Some of it is legitimate, of course, absolutely, some of
156
00:15:44.879 --> 00:15:52.399
it is amplified, but all of it hits the nervous system. Okay.
157
00:15:53.320 --> 00:16:00.399
Faith interprets the automatic spiral, not blind denial. It rounded
158
00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:09.159
trust and righteousness as a breastplate. That's integrity, lived aligned,
159
00:16:09.480 --> 00:16:15.559
living aligned because hidden compromise creates cracks. And if we're
160
00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:20.720
just talking to ourselves and compromising, you're leaving the open cracks,
161
00:16:20.960 --> 00:16:26.360
not doors with cracks, and cracks are where pressure seeps in.
162
00:16:28.720 --> 00:16:35.919
You ever notice how guilt distorts perception when you're out
163
00:16:35.919 --> 00:16:44.399
of alignment, even neutral situations feel threatening. Armor closes those gaps.
164
00:16:44.720 --> 00:16:50.720
You gotta put it on them. The uncomfortable question, what
165
00:16:51.039 --> 00:16:56.120
if most spiritual exhaustion isn't from fighting too much, but
166
00:16:56.240 --> 00:17:00.960
from not wearing what protects you? Think about that? People
167
00:17:01.039 --> 00:17:04.759
burn out spiritually because they're trying to swing swords without
168
00:17:04.839 --> 00:17:15.039
guarding their minds. They're arguing online, they're debating theology, consuming
169
00:17:15.240 --> 00:17:21.480
conspiracy threads, constantly diving into strange phenomenons. But they're not anchored,
170
00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:28.759
they're not protected, and this matters for broadcasting, seeds, listeners.
171
00:17:29.720 --> 00:17:33.160
It just does. We talk about strange phenomenon, we talk
172
00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:37.720
about cryptids and government cover ups, biblical threads, high strangeness.
173
00:17:38.680 --> 00:17:45.559
That curiosity is healthy, okay, but without armor, curiosity can
174
00:17:45.640 --> 00:17:55.960
become destabilizing. Curiosity without discernment doesn't wake you up, it
175
00:17:56.119 --> 00:18:00.720
opened you up. I was just talking about this on
176
00:18:00.880 --> 00:18:07.240
the previous episode with the guests this week, especially with
177
00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:11.079
everything people are talking about culturally in war, and it's
178
00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:14.480
easy to pull the Epstein and it's easy to get
179
00:18:14.519 --> 00:18:21.160
pulled sideways, and Paul's spring work pulls you vertical armor first,
180
00:18:21.599 --> 00:18:31.440
awareness first, identity first, then engagement. It's not that difficult
181
00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:36.599
because if you're not protected, every idea feels like revelation.
182
00:18:38.400 --> 00:18:41.440
And that's and that leads exactly where we're going next
183
00:18:47.640 --> 00:18:51.880
section three. The sword is not what you think. So
184
00:18:52.960 --> 00:18:57.599
now we're gonna pivot. We're gonna pivot because when people
185
00:18:57.680 --> 00:19:05.640
hear about spiritual weapons. They immediately think offense, power, authority,
186
00:19:05.680 --> 00:19:12.240
casting things out, rebuking and rebuking the darkness. But Paul
187
00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:19.319
only names one offensive weapon, and that's the sword. The sword,
188
00:19:21.279 --> 00:19:29.880
and it's not volume, that's not personality, it's not even dominance. Okay,
189
00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:36.319
the sword is the word. It's the word that sounds
190
00:19:36.400 --> 00:19:43.079
churchy until you slow down and ask what that actually means. Okay,
191
00:19:43.839 --> 00:19:50.359
a sword is precise, it's close range. It requires discipline
192
00:19:50.400 --> 00:19:54.319
to use. You don't flail with the sword, and if
193
00:19:54.400 --> 00:19:58.200
you do, you get hurt and you get tired really fast.
194
00:19:58.960 --> 00:20:03.359
Didn't we just talk about So why does Paul describe
195
00:20:03.480 --> 00:20:13.119
the word that way? Because truth applied specifically cuts through
196
00:20:13.200 --> 00:20:21.880
specific lies, not general inspiration, specific truth. Right now, we
197
00:20:21.960 --> 00:20:25.480
live in an era of broad statements and vague I
198
00:20:25.519 --> 00:20:31.160
mean at best vague spirituality. Live your truth. How many
199
00:20:31.200 --> 00:20:37.440
times do you hear that nonsense? Manifest your reality, speak
200
00:20:37.480 --> 00:20:44.160
your world into existence. It sounds empowering, right it feels mystical.
201
00:20:45.279 --> 00:20:49.079
Bottom line is, though it's foggy, Paul's framework is the
202
00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:54.839
opposite of foggy. It's targeted. When Jesus was tempted in
203
00:20:54.880 --> 00:20:58.640
the wilderness, we're in lent. Right now, guys, this is
204
00:20:58.640 --> 00:21:03.640
where it happened. We're in the middle of lent. He
205
00:21:03.759 --> 00:21:10.480
didn't argue philosophy. He answered distortion with anchored truth. That's
206
00:21:10.559 --> 00:21:15.279
sword work. That sword play and sword work. And here's
207
00:21:15.319 --> 00:21:20.200
where this gets, I guess, unsettling. If you don't know
208
00:21:20.599 --> 00:21:23.880
what's true, you don't know what to cut at. You
209
00:21:23.880 --> 00:21:27.839
don't know what to cut A dole. Sword doesn't defend you,
210
00:21:27.920 --> 00:21:32.799
It just makes noise. We always hear that term sharp
211
00:21:32.920 --> 00:21:38.640
iron sharp on sharpens iron. Lately, people are starting to
212
00:21:38.839 --> 00:21:45.319
notice how an easily narrative shift headlines contradict themselves and
213
00:21:45.400 --> 00:21:52.000
cultural values, flip institutions, rebrand truth in real time, and
214
00:21:52.079 --> 00:21:55.920
you're not. If you're not grounded, you start adapting to
215
00:21:56.160 --> 00:22:00.880
every wave. That's not discernment, that's just that's just drift.
216
00:22:02.359 --> 00:22:07.680
The sword requires familiarity. Familiarity, gosh. I can't say that
217
00:22:07.759 --> 00:22:12.119
you can't borrow someone else's conviction in a moment of pressure.
218
00:22:12.759 --> 00:22:18.079
You can't google spiritual clarity or chat ept spiritual clarity
219
00:22:18.319 --> 00:22:22.559
in a crisis and expected to land. You have to
220
00:22:22.759 --> 00:22:29.240
internalize this before the moment. And this connects to everything
221
00:22:29.319 --> 00:22:33.319
we talk about on the show. On broadcasting seeds. When
222
00:22:33.359 --> 00:22:40.559
we explore conspiracy or the paranormal or strange phenomenon hidden history,
223
00:22:40.680 --> 00:22:46.720
there's a temptation to chase revelation after revelation, but without
224
00:22:46.759 --> 00:22:54.160
a fixed anchor, that appetite becomes endless. You start needing
225
00:22:54.200 --> 00:22:58.920
bigger mysteries and bigger shocks. It's like, man, this is
226
00:22:59.039 --> 00:23:03.480
just patterns. We talk about that all the time. You
227
00:23:03.599 --> 00:23:09.720
need bigger secrets and bigger conspiracies. That's not awakening, that's
228
00:23:09.880 --> 00:23:15.640
addiction to intensity. Not every hidden thing is meant to
229
00:23:15.680 --> 00:23:20.839
be hunted. Some are meant to test your hunger. Where
230
00:23:20.839 --> 00:23:25.119
does that come from? Paul's emphasis on the word as
231
00:23:25.160 --> 00:23:30.880
a sword implies restraint. It implies you don't swing at everything.
232
00:23:31.440 --> 00:23:36.640
You cut what needs cutting. So, with that being said,
233
00:23:36.359 --> 00:23:47.920
that internal accusation, false identity, fear spirals, distorted theology, hopeless narratives,
234
00:23:49.319 --> 00:23:52.680
and notice something else. He doesn't say the sword is
235
00:23:52.720 --> 00:23:55.880
your option. Oh, he doesn't say the sword is your
236
00:23:55.920 --> 00:24:02.759
opinion about scripture. He says it's the word activated by
237
00:24:02.880 --> 00:24:12.799
the spirit. That's relational, that's discernment, that's alignment. And right
238
00:24:12.880 --> 00:24:18.720
now in this culture, when spiritual language is being repackaged
1
00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:05.000
2
00:00:05.040 --> 00:00:10.359
3
00:00:10.519 --> 00:00:17.440
4
00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:33.119
5
00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:37.840
6
00:00:37.880 --> 00:00:42.880
7
00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:49.039
8
00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:55.079
9
00:00:55.159 --> 00:01:00.600
10
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:06.079
11
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:10.640
12
00:01:11.599 --> 00:01:16.159
13
00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:22.519
14
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:27.560
15
00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:33.439

00:01:33.480 --> 00:01:39.280

00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:44.560
