The Biblical Remix – CREAM
Judas went to the chief priests scheming to make some money if he would set Jesus up. As they counted off 30 pieces of silver to Judas to seal the deal in betraying Jesus, this Wu-Tang song played in the background:
“Cash Rules Everything Around Me, CREAM, Get the money, Dollar dollar bill y’all”

The Biblical Remix – Shake What Ya
While Moses was in God’s presence on the mountain for 40 days, the Israelites were corrupting themselves by worshipping a golden calf made by Aaron.
As people were laughing, singing and getting buck wild, this Frankie Cutlass song played in the background:
“Shake what ya mamma gave ya! Shake what ya mamma gave ya!”
Exodus 32:1-8 – http://bit.ly/f2mGrY
The Biblical Remix – Cain Not Able
Cain was not able to manage his anger very well. Right before he attacked his brother Abel, the lyrics from a Grandmaster Flash song were playing in his head:
“Don’t push me ‘cuz I’m close to the edge, I’m trying not to lose my head, Uh huh ha ha ha, It’s like a jungle sometimes, It makes me wonder how I keep from going under”
Genesis 4:5-8 – http://bit.ly/caT3bV
The Biblical Remix – Woman at the Well
While in conversation Jesus decides to blow up this Samaritan Woman’s spot by telling her she had five husbands and the dude she’s with now wasn’t even her husband. Why did he do that?
Because Jesus quickly identified this Samaritan Woman’s theme song was by Mary J Blige:
“Real Love, I’m searching for the Real Love, Someone to set my heart free, Real Love, I’m searching for a Real Love…”
John 4:16-18 – http://bit.ly/bd7NDk
The Biblical Remix – The Adulterous Woman
Ready to be stoned by her accusers for adultery, the “Adulterous Woman” was thrust into the judgment of Jesus.
“He who is without sin cast the first stone” said Jesus. The accusers left. Her sin was pardoned.
In her heart she sang this Alicia Myers‘ song:
“I want to thank you Heavenly Father, For shining Your light on me. You sent me someone who really loves me, And not just my body…”
John 8:2-11 http://bit.ly/aNOdEi
The next morning when his sons explained to him “what had happened”, Jamie Foxx’s song was playing in Noah’s head:
“Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol. Blame it on the a-a-a-a-a-alcohol.”
Genesis 9:20-21 – http://bit.ly/cClh87
The Biblical Remix – Samson
When Samson saw one of the women of the Philistines, he told his parents to go get her as a wife for him. Samson said “She pleases me well”. I imagine this Michael Jackson song was playing in the background:
“The way you make me feel (The way you make me feel), You really turn me on (You really turn me on, You knock me off my feet…”
Judges 14:1-3 – http://bit.ly/9lYqY1
The Biblical Remix – Job & His Friends
Having lost so much, Job was in much pain & very despondent. Unfortunately his “friends” did not give him any comfort. In the midst of their “advice”, I am sure these words from DMX were in Job’s mind:
“Y’all gon’ make me lose my mind, Up in Here, Up in Here, Y’all gon’ make me go all out, Up in Here, Up in Here, Y’all gon’ make me act a Fool…”
Job 17:1-2 – http://bit.ly/cgIUO2
The Biblical Remix – David Defeats Goliath
After David killed Goliath with the sling and stone, he took Goliath’s sword from its sheath. He then cut off Goliath’s head. At this moment, I believe this Michael Jackson song was playing in David’s mind:
“Because I’m Bad, I’m Bad, You Know It, You Know I’m Bad, I’m Bad, You Know, And The Whole World Has To Answer Right Now Just To Tell You Once Again, Who’s Bad…”

The Biblical Remix – Children of Israel Cross The Red Sea
When Moses raises his staff, the waters part to the left and the right. As the children of Israel cross over on dry land, I hear this soundtrack playing by DJ Unk: “Now Walk It Out. Now Walk It Out. Now Walk It Out. Now Walk It Out. West Side Walk It Out. South Side Walk It Out. East Side Walk It Out. North Side Walk It Out.”
